Are You Discourteous To Visitors?
Students of college age are supposed to be courteous to visi-
tors, and should show special consideration to dignitaries that
come to the campus on notable occasions. When Mile. Eve Curie
lectured here last Thursday night a group of students, who regard
themselves as ladies and gentlemen, got up and walked out while
phe was addressing her audience: and some went so far as to pro-
duce a cough of digust.The speaker was alarmed and paused
momentarily until noise on the steps leading from the balcony Ir Pro-British, the British government has arranged for the U. S

Yugoslavia during the past few weeks had been facing an im-
portant issue; whether to sign Hitler's Non-Agression alliance,
or to stand her ground against a German invasion. Last week,
amid an uprising between the Serbian population and the pro-
German faction, a new government was set up under the leader-
ship of King Peter III. The Pro-Allies government immediately
declared its stand and began rushing arms to the front. They
have more than a million well trained soldiers but their airplanes
and other modern weapons are lacking. Germany is determined
to crush her in a short time and Yugoslavia is just as determined
to hold her own. Atlnough she is lacking in many materials she
has the will to fight to the last drop of blood.
For weeks the men responsible for keeping the navy ready
for any job have been drawing hypothetical lines back and forth
across the Atlantic. When the real test comes the American people
are going to have to help get British aid suuplies to Europe. The
most logical way the U. S. government could help and still abide
by the Monroe-Doctrine, the Neutrality act, and International
Law, is to convoy British loaded ships to 30 degrees west longi-
tude. British ships would be loaded at any American port and
convoyed to the end of the safety zone where British ships would
take over.

ed. but this (iocs not seem logical, as this many students could not
do group thinking of such poor quality.
Courtesy should be an attribute for each graduate who serves
the public school system of North Carolina, But some members of
the student body have not acquired this trait. At least, they failed
to show it. Many will conclude. 'T didn't like the lecture, anyway.
I paid my own good money to attend and had the right to leave if
I was bored This is a shallow attitude. In the course of human
events, particularly at public gatherings, and entertainments are
no exception, it is necessary for us to think in terms of what is
best for the entire group. Any person who ignores this common
courtesy has nut found his place in society.
Mhe. Curie will not remember East Carolina Teachers Col-
lege for its beautiful campus, nor the part it is playing in giving
students a splendid intellectual background for jobs as teachers.
Instead she will remember it for the few students who were not
courteous enough to remain until she had concluded her lecture.
No student can contend that she had to leave in order to get back competent
to the dormitory, as those who remained got there all right. Had
the speaker kept her audience past the zero hour, the dormitory
heads would have lie n considerat

Resolution
We the members of the Faculty of East Carolina Teachers
College wish to express in some measure our appreciation of the
life and personality of our late friend and colleague James R.
Gulledge. for five years Librarian of the College.
Mr. Gulledge was quiet and unassuming, but diligent and
in business. He sought no herald to proclaim his
By nature sociable and friendly, he made enduring
friendships with an enviable ease and grace. His sympathies and
)U interests were as catholic and genuine as his moral integrity and
loyalty to friends and duty were free from bigotry and taint of
self-interest. In a word, he possessed the sovereign virtues of
honesty, dependability, and courage.
More concretely. Mr. Gulledge was a trained librarian. He
felt that the library is rightly termed the heart of the college. In

Brooklyn Museum's current ex-
hibition of fifty ancient and
foreign hats displayed through

adaptations by Sally Victor.
Not only did men corner hats,
but they devised almost every
basic shape known today and
ran the gamut of materials even

STUDENT OPINION
To The Editor:
Telephones are a great time saver, especial
nne's disposal. It is customary in most colleges and
have telephones at different nlaces on the campus :
students. The operator is an N. Y. A. worker or one g
the college.
It would be an asset to K. C. T. C. if there wei
phones on each floor of the dormitories, one in th

interspersed by commercial announcements. But students listened It'ult
to these programs, and finding satisfaction in them, it was a sell
ing point for other programs, the station offered when commercial
announcements were read. Ordinarily students of the college sent
out more requests that could possibly be handled on the Stud.o
Party. This is proof enough that WGTC has a good listening audi-
dence in this college.
The student body is large enough to merit the listening pleas-
ure of the Slumber Music program and also the Studio Partv.
Students will still listen to them, regardless of the hour. When'a
student goes to college he spends money, and since the radio
station is a medium through which he can learn where to spend
money, he should be served. And if he doesn't have access to his
most popular programs, then he's going to find a program he does
like by a simple twist of the wrist and turn of the dial.

Miss Victor's hats, while de-
rived from one or more of the
museum's models, were never
dicert adaptations. A peaked
open-winged bonnet was a pro-
duct of ancient Africa and a
reversed Alsatian cap. Victorian
net and jet made a swirling halo
taken from a wooden Chinese
silhouette. From a nineteenth
century rainhat. designed to
stretch over ordinary headgear,
came an accordian pleated bon-
net of white pique fitted to a
head-hugging band. The most
impressive mode was a Peru-
vian turban of thousands of
feathers painstakingly pasted
together to picture the Jaguar
god. Miss Victor covered the up-
turned brim of a natural straw
with a similar design, stylized
and ripely colored.

Digging For Dirt
This Collegiate World
Music Festival Was A Job Well Done
Recently several hundred students from thirty-two high
schools of Eastern North Carolina assembled on the campus for
the annual Greenville District Music Contest to determine partic-
ipants from this section for the State Contest being held soon at
Greensboro. A. L. Dittmer, head of the Department of Music and
general chairman of the festival, along with his capable corps of
assistants, are to be congratulated for the efficient mnner in which
they conducted the contest. It was a job well done.
In he past it has been customary to deermine winners. This
year the standouts were merely given a rating without emphasis
on winning. We believe that this is the way it should be, as it will
develop more appreciation for music and serve as a clinic for the
participants. At the climax of the festival, consisting of a mam-
moth concert of the combined bands of a number of high schools.
Chairman Dittmer announced that this would be an annual affair.
Not only will youthful musicians enjoy participating in it, but col-
lege students and persons living out in the city will enjoy hearing
it. The performance here was a spectacle that long will be remem-
bered by those who heard it.
Aside from the instrumental offerings, there were also vocal
selections. The solos, trios and combined numbers of the glee clubs
were both cultural and entertaining. All people should make music
a part of their lives. It is a braser for tired nerves.

the college, its staff has been handicapped considerably by virtue
of not having adequate and roomy working quarters. It is true this
publication has a staff room, but no place could be more inconven-
ient or dangerous. The inconvenience rests in the fact that the
staff room is located on the top floor of Austin, and this same
situation makes it dangerous. The top floor of Austin is nothing
but a fire trap. An examination will reveal this. Then, too, no one
en find the magazine's present staff room without a well-designed
map. This handicaps the staff considerably when the magazine is
distributed, and its personnel were considerate enough to let the
students get them at the office of the Teco Echo, as no student
relishes the idea of climbing three flights of steps. The publica-
tion is young and will have to undergo some growing pains. Un-
less the staff is provided with better working quarters, however,
there is going to be malnutrition in their productive efforts. We
hope some arrangements can be made whereby The Pieces 'O
Eight can realize normal growth in ideal working quarters.

due to the success of last year's

Headed by Annie Laurie Wil-
kerson, the editorial staff col-
lected and revised the reports
sent in by various branches over
the state. It contains news of
the N. C. A. C. E. and a great
many workable suggestions and
references. The booklet was well
received at the meeting of the
North Carolina classroom teach-
ers in Asheville on April 4.
The editorial staff consisted
of: Annie Laurie Wilkersdn,
Editor-in-chief; Gladvs Allen;
Mary T. Bailey, Estelle Baker,
Doris Dawson, Clarissa Ed-

He Got The Job
Fayette, Mo.�(ACP)�Obtain a college degree within a year
or lose a gob of money. That's the ultimatum James Bothwell
faced a year ago last month.
P. S He got the job.
Bothwell was graduated from Central college at the end of
the semester, less than a month ahead of a $35,000 deadline. But
it wasn't a storybook finish to a romantic thriller for Bothwell-
It the end of the most strenuous year of his life.
Bothwell was astonished to learn in January 1940, that he
must have a decree by the time he was 25 to receive the legacy
of an uncle. And on Feb. 19, 1941, he would be 25.
I guess my uncle just wanted to be sure I had a college edu-
cation he said, "but up until last year I had no idea of the terms
of his will. And yon see, I'd been out of college for three years
