A young student with matrimony
in mind had just popped the ques
tion to his girl friend.
"Oh, I don't know, Hector," she
said slowly. "I've been asked to
get married lots of times."
"Gee," he said crestfallen; "who
asked yuh, Daisy?"
She blushed. "Oh, maw and
PAW.".

screen. Jack Benny was cast as
Charley's aunt. This play was re
vived on Broadway last season un
der the title of "Where Is Char
ley," starring Ray Bolger.
Now the University Players turn
their talents to this worthy work
in order to bring the students of
Carolina first-class entertainment.
Jim Reagan, who is cast as Fan
court Babberly, ends up being
Charley's aunt when the real aunt
(Carolyn Moore) fails to show up
to help her nephew out of trouble.
The fact that the aunt is a wealthy
widow draws many suitors to her,
regardless of her eccentricities, and
Jim Reagan shows the proper (?)
etiquette to be used in refusing
proposals.
Charley (Cliff Gaddy) and Jack
(Miller Lide) dash through three
acts trying to keep Fancourt's
identity a secret and woo their
sweethearts Amy (Ethel Mat
thews) and Kitty (Pat Davis), re
spectively. Brassart, the discreet
man's man (Tom Thornton) man
ages to keep the innocent and the
guilty characters worried.
Other players participating are
Nell Petrea, Bill Melton, Fred
Blackwvell and Sara Starnes.
Buddy Long is directing the play
and will use three different stage
settings - one for each act - to
carry out the action more effec
tively.
"Charley's Aunt" will be the last
p)roduction of this season. The Uni
versity Theater will be active dur
ing summer school.

who, with illustrations, spoke about
the corruptness of the world and
said that leadership and service or

The captain was lecturing to a
class of new officer candidates. "A
40-foot flagpole has fallen down,'
he said. "You have a sergeant
and a detail of 10 men. How do
you erect the flagpole again?"
The candidates thought, then of
fered suggestions about block and
tackle derricks, and so on.
"You're all wrong," said the
Captain. "You'd merely say, "Men~
get that flagpole up'."
Psychiatrist: "Why don't you
like to talk over the telephone ?"
Patient: "Because I always hear
voices. People are liable to think
I'm crazy."
