of University Women, the comedy is
presented to raise money for a schol-
arship fund to enable an East Caro-
lina student to study abroad. George
E. Perry of the faculty directs the
'day.
Amusing Plot
The plot centers around the diffi-
culties of Mrs. Ethel P. Savage, a
millionaires committed to the home
by her money-hungry children. Mrs.
Dorothy Perkins plays the eccentric
lady, who seems to have lost ten
million dollars worth of negotiable
bonds but who cares tenderly for a
toy teddy bear which is always with
her.
Mrs. Agnes Barrett plays her so-
histicated, six-times-married daugh-
ter, and Dr. Hubert Coleman and
Dr. Theodore Eaton appear as her
distinguished sons, a senator and a
judge. The independent-minded old
lady sets about proving that these
three are crazier than she.
Ruth Lambie as the nurse Wilhel-
?mina and Donald Amelon as a pi-
anist, a war casulty, play roles which
add a touch of romance to the play.
Dr. James Poindexter in the role of
Dr Emmett presents a point of view
oth scientific and essentially human
towardMiis patients.
Surplus Imagination
Beatrice Chauncey, who in last
year's faculty play "The Silver Whis-
tle" got almost a laugh a line for
her portrayal of the complaining and
caustic Mrs. Hanmer, is cast as Fairy
Mae, a plain girl with surplus imagi-
nation.
Others in "The Curious Savage" are
Elizabeth Walker, who takes the part
of a lady of pseudo-culture; Mrs.
Sally Klingenschmitt, an artist who
hates everything and is vocal only
about her dislikes; and Dr. Harold
Jones, a happy violinist who cannot
play.

Who's Wko At East Carolina
by Phyllis Carpenter
We would like to congratulate all
persons who won positions on next
year's Student Government associa-
tion slate, and we hope that each
officer will strive to make East
Carolina a more democratic school.
Released recently by the Enter-
tainment committee was the news
that Ray Anthony will play here in
April. Each spring the committee
brings a name band to East Carolina,
and the Anthony group of musicians
has been selected for the second
straight year.
The Ray Anthony band really put
on a show last year, and we feel
that everyone should enjey his per-
formance as much this year. An-
nouncements will be made later con-
cerning whether or not students will
be permitted to bring guests. Student
identification cards will be used in
giving students their admission tic-
kets.
We Must Pull Together
"A better Student Government association
for a better East Carolina That statement was
the general trend of campign promises of the
persons running lor the top student positions on
campus during last week's election. Officers have
been ted. The new slate has begun working
Ifilling their promises. Will the new
officers live up lo their promises? Is it possible
for them to do all that they might want to do?
answer to these questions is no unless
rej . es ntative group of mem-
with the officers on the legislature.
must have outstanding followers,
or they will not be good leaders. No small group
ot persons can accomplish a job by themselves,
but the small group, which we might say is our
lers, wiH bo able to do wonders if they are
bad evei y?ne at East Carolina.
When a representative on the legislature just
3 meetings, he is not doing a very satisfac-
y job. Each member of the Student Govern-
? ' ass ciation, and that is each person in school
, must speak out and express his views on
s that might appear before the
latu Aii . - and views of the problems
or into thoroughly before any mess-
is taken to solve the problem.
Sitting back and voting "yes" on everything
? is presented at the SGA meetings will not
ake for a better East Carolina. In the past
been just a small minority who prac-
: everything that was presented before
I - Islature. Whose fault is this? It is not the
fault of the president or any of the officers, but
it is the fault of each person who just sits back
and takes everything in. The presiding officer
cannot make representatives participate more.
To remedy this situation individual organizations
should elect a representative which they can feel
sure will speak out at the meetings.
According to present plans the new slate of
officers plans to post on a public bulletin board
what will be taken up at the weekly meeting of
the h gislature prior to the meeting. This will pro-
vide an opportunity for members to discuss the
issues with other persons before going to the
meeting. On the spur of the moment voting will
thus be eliminated.
The "East Carolinian" plans to run a col-
umn each week expressing editorial comment on
the nings of the legislature. We hope that
the column will help build up student interest
in th ? legislature.
No one knows now just how effective our
new legislature will be, but we do know that it
will not be made effective by the work of just a
few persons. We must all work and pull together
if we plan to accomplish anything.
We Will Try To Explain
In recent weeks there has been some heated
discussions between students concerning some of
the columns that have appeared in the East Cciro-
an. We on the staff may be at fault for not
explaining more carefully the policies of this
paper.
All newspapers print columns which express
the views of the individuals composing the opin-
ions. Merely because the column appears in our
paper does not mean that the paper expresses the
same feelings.
There are students who say that they do not
agree with all that is said and done by persons
writing the columns. No one asks you to believe
or agree with all that is written in the columns.
We would be in a sad state today if everyone did
agree with all that another said.
Oftentimes we print editorials that have ap-
peared in other papery that we receive. It is not
our intention that the readers of this paper should
think that these reprinted editorials are our
views. We clearly print at the beginning of each
reprint that we use the name of the paper that
it was taken from.
We hope that we have cleared up some of
the questions that have ben coming to us, and if
at any time any of our readers would like to dis-
cuss the policies of this paper with us wt will be
more than glad to do so.
What many persons at East Caro-
lina consider the biggest dance of the
year, the Military ball, is all over.
From all talk that has been going
around, we feel quite sure that all
the cadets had a wonderful time.
We saw some naval ROTC students
from other schools, as well as some
officers who have graduated from
here and some from the air base
in Kinston.
The feeling of spring is now in the
air, and we can sympathize with any
persons who have late afternoon
classes. One will never know how
hard it is to sit through a class from
4 o'clock to 5 o'clock in the after-
noon during the spring. Just think
of all the baseball games we will
miss.
No one needs any introduction to
this week's Who's Who, Warren
"Sonny" Russell, for he has made
a name for him lf at East Carolina
not only for his athletic ability but
also for his friendly, good natured
personality which has won the hearts
of the student body.
Sonny, who is attending school on
a basketball scholarship, came to
ECC Fall quarter of '49 and plans
to graduate at the end of the Fall
quarter next year with a BS-degree,
majoring in physical education and
minoring in math. He said that he
would like to teach physical educa-
tion and also coach after graduating,
but as yet he wasn't too sure
about what the future would bring.
Plans To Fly
Sonny thinks that he will attend
flight school and go nto the "jet"
phase of training after he receives
his commission. This spring quarter
will complete his military work here
at East Carolina.
Most of Sonny's activities on cam-
pus consists of sports. His athletic
ability has been greatly displayed in
the years that he has helped lead
the Pirates to victory. His basketball
career has yet to be excelled by any-
one attending East Carolina. Specta-
tors have come from many miles to
see Sonny display his calm, smooth
technique on ihe basketball court.
His first year here, Sonny made the
first squad and held that position
for four years.
These and many other reasons
may help one to understand why he
has received so many honors. For
two years, '5051 and '5253, he was
All-state in basketball, all four years
he has been All-conference rnd for
two years, '5051 and '5152, All-

High school day is not too far off
now. We all hope that we will be
able to influence as many high school
seniors to come to East Carolina
as have in the past few years. There
are not many students in this state
who plan to go to college who have
not heard of our college. We have
really built up a good reputation
over this section of the country, and
we must all work hard to not let
our good name falter.

Greatest Honor
"Of all the honors I've ever re-
ceived, I feel that receiving the
framed letter from the students com-
mending me for my work here was
the greatest thing that ever hap-
pened to me he said. This letter
was presented to Sonny on "Sonny
Russell Night" in Memorial gymna-
sim by Bob Robinson, president of
the Student Government, in behalf
of the student body. "I didn't even
know about the letter until the after-
noon before the game he told us.
"They originally had planned not
to tell me about it at all bui decided
that they had better to keep me

of a jrame or during a game. He said
that he didn't know whether or not

but he had heard once that it would

asked if he had had any amusing
experiences on the basketball court,
he thought a few minutes and said,
"Well, at the time this wasn't so
but now that it's all over, I
it was quite amusing. I got
irown out of the game for fighting
at AC this season
Likes the South
When asked about the trip to Kan-
sas City, the main thing he said
was that the boys were glad to get
back to North Carolina. "I prefer
the South to the North because the
people up there just aren't too friend-
ly. Then, too, that food isn't like
good ole Southern home cooking
Basketball isn't Sonny's only tal-
ent, though, for he has been a mem-
ber of the baseball team his fresh-
man, sophomore and senior years.
Also he likes fishing (of any kind),
hunting and just any sport that takes
him out-of-doors. By the way, he did
major in "Y-Shop bridge" one quar-
ter.
This outstanding athlete was rec-
ognized widely even before coming
to college. He was voted the "Most
Valuable Player" in the East-West
basketball game and also was asked
to play in the Optimist bowl. This
invitation he had to decline because
of a broken ankle. Sonny's life has
been filled with so many activities
it will be impossible to name them
all because of the lack of space;
however, we have enumerated the
most important ones.
His wife is the former Sue
Anne Harmon of Lynn, Ind. and,
incidentally, they are expecting an
addition to the family late in the
summer.

Couple Of The Week
Since the first day of registration tories for us day students.
by T. Parker Maddrey
Dear Mr. Legislator:
When you are deciding what to do
with the state's taxpayer's money,
remember a growing state-supported
colleg3 in the East?namely, East
Carolina. We are confident that you
are handling the budget to better the
state as a whole.
We appreciate the funds allocated
to us in the past, but now that our
school is continually expanding, we
ask for more financial aid for build-
ings.
On behalf of the day students here,
we especially need dormitories. An
out-of-town student must rent a room
in town because there is no dormi-
tory space. But rooming in town is
is more expensive. The average day
student pays $15 a month or $45 per
quarter for rent while the dorm stu-
dent s fee is a little more than $20 a
quarter.
Not only the extra expense is a
disadvantage, out the loss of true
"college life" makes the day student
feel that college is no different from
high school with the exception of
studies. This student is deprived of
dormitory association.
At present there are about 1,250
beds on campus. Last year there were
over 1,900 persons who applied for
these beds which left over 600 in the
cold. This year there were even more
applicants, however, those figures are
not available yet.
So, Mr. Legislator, we hope that you
can see our point of view and remem-
ber East Carolina for more dormi-
Poll Reveals Students Oppose

(ACP) Collegiate morals are high-

The vast majority of students are:
(1) Against drinking in dormitories,
and (2) Against staying out too late
with their date. Women are more
"strict" about these matters than
men.
Students were asked their opinions
on dormitory drinking rules. Here

though Jim and Ruth are from the

Misspelling Words
by Kay Johnston
How many times have you been
guilty of ruining a test paper, im-
promptu theme or any other piece
of writing because of misspelling?
Only this morning we had two
points taken off because we used
protestant instead o Episcopal, sim-
ply because we were unsure of its
spelling. Yes, the dictionary would
be ? good source, if we only had
the time to look up the words.
We're not the only ones who have
spelling trouble. Only yesterday we
received a letter that was probably
supposed to arouse a very romantic
mood. Instead it produced hysteria
when we read this sentence: "You
have such wondifull eyes
Not too long ago we received a
letter from Mother. This letter was
a little different, however, for we
were a little surprised to find one
of our own letters returned with ev-
ery word we had misspelled under-
lined. Was Mother disgusted! A col-
lege sophomore! (Mother doesn't hear
from us quite so often now. We

Do Teachers Have Any Learning?
Teachers' colleges?sometimes called educa-

cording to the New York Times.
Students preparing to be teachers, says the
Times, did worse on the draft deferrment test
than any other group. More than 400,000 students
have taken this test.
Students in engineering, the physical sciences
and mathematics were in top position. Business
and agriculture were just above education, at the
bottom of the list.
Comments the Times, "The educational world
has reason to be greatly disturbed at the con-
clusion contained in the report. No matter how
one looks at the data, the performance of the
education group is conspicuously poor.
"The conclusion is inescapable that a large
number of low-ability students are preparing to
enter the teaching field

The Bucs left for AiCC with full

As the Pirates departed, Boone

State Collegians down the East Caro-
lina All-stars 85-67 in a charity con-

The Collegians were composed of
State's senior cagers while the All-

squad, former Buc stars, and several
high school tryouts.
High scorer for the wame was
State's All-American Bobby Speight,
who dumped in 29 points with every
conceivable shot. Leading the scoring
for the Pirates was Bobby Hodges
with 18 markers and Sonny Russell
with 15. Russell, and All-state senior

Southern Trips On Tap
For Pirate Grid Squad
During Latter Autumn
Saturday, September 19, 1953, will
mark the opening of what is probably
the most ambitious football schedule
eve undertaken by any East Caro-
lina college grid team. Wilson Teach-
ers college, of Washington, D. C,
will be the visiting club as the B"cs
inaugurate their schedule at Colle re
stadium.
Following .he clash with the Teas-
ers, the Pirates will play hos.t to
Lenoir Rhyne's conference champion
Bears. This contest will in all prob-
ability decide whether or not the
Bears' two year reign as unbeaten
greats of the North State conference
will come to an end.
Included on the schedule which at
present boasts nine games are con-
secutive contests with two power-
houses from Florida, Tampa and Stet-
son universities. The Tampa contest
is scheduled for Tampa November 7
with the Stetson game earmaiked
for Deland the following Saturday.
Besides the three out of conference
contests with Stetson, Tampa and
Wilson Teachers, the Bucs will meet
six conference foes. In addition to
' the Lenoir Rhyne game which will be
played here the Pirates will clash
with Elon, Guilford and Appalachian
on the home grounds while journey-
ing to Western Carolina and Cataw-
ba for contests.
The schedule at present lists nine
contests. There is, however, a possi-
bility that an additional game will
be added.
The schedule:
Sept. 19?Wilson Teachers, here
Sept. 26?Lenoir Rhyne, here
Oct. 3?Catawba, there
Oct. 10?Elon, here

Talent On Hand For Pirates
by Bruce Phillips
The changing of climate and
ohanging of apparel is coinciding
these days as the brief attire of the
basketball player gives way to the
thick woolen clothing of the baseball
diamond.
The wraps have been taken off
the National Pastime and the hard
ball camps are in full swing. East
Carolina's 1953 edition of hickory-
swingers is turning out for daily
practices that are lively with spirit
and hustle.
Here is a spot-check of this year's
club: The catchers make Coach Boone
come forth smiling as the mittmen
are the team's strongest point. Head-
ing the backstops is Ralph Britt,
returnee from last year. Backing up
Ralph will be Bill Cline and Bill,
Hardee, able glovemen and powerful
with the bat.
At first base is Sonny Russell, a
top notch performer who can handle
the post with natural ease and hold
his own at the plate. W. C. Sander-
son will lend assistance at the spot.
Around the keystone sack the sec-
ond baseman and shortstops are real-
ly plentiful and the competition is
scorching. Cecil Heath, Bill Hardi-
son and Richard Hoskins are putting
up a bitter battle for the regular's
job. The shortstops have similar de-
termination and are pushing each
other to the limit. From Bermey Ste-
vens, Paul Jones and Wilbur Thomp-
son will come the Pirates' starting
short fielder.
The torrid hot corner is at its
name implies?hot. Charlie Cherry,
spirited freshman from Washington,

giving regular Gaither Cline a
run for his money. Both boys are
handy with glove and stick. George
Sauls, regular in '52, is making a
stalwart bid.
The outfield is patrolled by an
array of gardeners, all sweating it
out for one of the three starting
berths. Paul Ga Boyd Webb, Jim
Corbin, Major Hooper and Toppy
Hayes seem to have the edge over
the remaining field of Neville Love-
lace, James Faircloth, Melvni Wil-
kerson and Robert Penley.
The pitchers number 15 by count
with Jim Byrd, Jim Piner, A. J.
Rose, Martin Byrd, Clyde Owens,
Ken Hall, Eugene Rose, Leonard
Sullivan, John McAderu Ben Britt,
J. C. Thomas, Ted Barnes, Milton
Allen, O'Brien Edwards and James
Porter being the mound hopefuls.
Pictured above is Jimmy Byrd, vet-
eran hurler for Coach Jack Boone's
1952-53 baseball team. Byrd is a main-
stay on the pitching staff of the Pi-
rates and will be relied on heavily
during the coming season.
