Big Day For Heathens, Communists
Why do Americans celebrate May Day, an
old pagan custom and an event nationally observ-
ed
dv
undemocratic countries?
In ancient Rome May Day may have had its
eginning. Romans worshipped the goddess
Flora "ii that day and is probably where the
idea . the Queen originated. The early Celtic
n ade the day a gala occasion to rejoice
spring. It was then that the Christians transfer-
the holiday to the feast of Sain John, con-
agan ideals.
England has been celebrating this day ever
since Chaucer's time. The nobles and the lower
classes alike get a big kick glorifying their maj-
ies, the king and queen.
It's a big day for the Russians, too. May Day
one of two largest holidays celebrated by the
Communists, the other day being November 7,
when the Bolshevik party came to power. May
Day is International Labor Day for the Reds. It
is celebrated by mammoth parades in all the cities
of the Soviet Union. On these days workers are
; into marching units, which carry gi-
ntic poster-banners of Lennin and Stalin.
May Day is a big event in other countries,
rshipping gods and goddesses, paying high
? bute to the powerful dictators of Russia and
honoring with humility the leaders of a monarchy
I . Ti.
Why. then, does America, a nation of de-
cracy and Christianity, get in on this underno-
? ic and pagan act ?
Spring- Fever: A Hopeless Case
si r
This time of the year shows students
i on the campus green down with the
f- ver?sprinj
fever, that is. The college medical
iless in treating such cases and there
' is hel.
known cure for such sickness.
Sympathy goes to these poor, poor pro-
sors. They lecture so persistantly to a bunch
half-asleep, fever stricken students. But with
. warm sunshine radiating through the open
indows of the classrooms and the fresh, clean
smell of newly-mown grass and fruit tree and
f wer blossoms, what else could they expect?
In spring, young men and coed's thoughts
tarn to beaches and bathing in that lazy ole
Sun. Books and classes are almost entirely dis-
regarded in the minds of students. Summer is
sure to gel h re soon; everyone is rushing it.
Spring fever may be just plain laziness, but
I rd must like it. He makes so many of us
that way.
Others Are Saying
From a report supposedly written by a
mmunist Party organizer to his superior:
it is bee ming increasingly difficult to reach
the downtrodden masses in America. In the
spring they're forever polishing their cars; in
the summer they take vacations: in the fall they
go to the world series and football games. And in
can't get them away from their
evisi n sets. Please give me suggestions on
how to let them know how oppressed they are

'Buccaneer' Deserves Praise
We wish to extend our congratulations and
commendati ns to our sister publication, "Buc-
caneer which was issued last week.
The yearbook staff are to be commended for
getting the publication out so early. And for their
fine work in producing an excellent one, they are
to be congratulated.
A Need For Pencil Sharpeners
There are some 2,200 pencils in use on cam-
pus which requires 2,200 sharpenings every day
from a very few sharpeners.
More sharpeners are needed. In Austin there
are only three known. The sole one in the library
has been so oVer worked that it doesn't do a
professional job any more. Other classroom build-
ings show the same situation.
Ye Editor's
by T. Parker Maddrey
Boxing may be brought to you in
the living room once a week by TV,
but it Ls a rare occasion that you see
a match in the college cafeteria. As
? far as tfiat goes a fight on this cam-
pus is rare at any time.
A number of spectators who watch-
ed the bout last week in the cafeteria
expressed a keen interest in the sport.
Bulging eyeballs were significant
among those watching. Some were
even ?; tilling for the two contestants
by their faint but bloodthirsty yells:
"Hit 'im again, hard-der! Kill 'im!
Ea4 'im up
As we watched the bout fro?i a
choice seat, the idea came of com-
mercializing on this rare, exotic en-
tertainment. Why not construct a
ring in the middle of the dining hall
lobby, put chairs around and have
someone at the doors selling tickets
to the event? A return engagement
of the contestants next week would
draw a large crowd. What to do
with the gate receipts? Well, place it
in some scholarship fund or some
other worthy cause. People always
like to spend money on worthy causes,
especially an opportunity to wit-
ness a rare treat as this.
No kidding, we believe that it
would work here. We know a gram-
mar school that had a lot of fist
fights. Then some student came up
with the idea of making a boxing
ring from thick window cord ami
rough poles. They set an admission
pike at a nickle and it wasn't long
before the expense of the ring had
paid for itself and seemingly large
profits sooq accumulated.
It would be a worthwhile project
for one of these service organizations
on cam: us to work on. If they did
and had a return bout with the "Cafe-
teria Sluggers we would be glad to
took bets.

other side of the desk Lynette says,

better. I have really enjoyed my stu-
dent teaching. All my students have
been very nice to nie; so far, no one
has tried to throw erasei-s or put
any thumb backs in my chair

Where Do We Go From Here?
(ACP)?It wat; a brisk breeze
that blew the month of March onto
the University ol Indiana campus,
and tiny bits of green fluttered smart-
ly in the wind.
Buttons, leaflets and hundreds of
green feathers proclaimed the arrival
of "Robin Hood's Men"?a group of
five students with definite ideas about
Sen. Joseph McCarthy.
For months the Merry Men had
plotted their attack. lit began when
Mrs. Thomas J. White, a member of
Indiana's textbook commission, de-
manded the removal of "Robin Hood"
from state textbooks because "he
roil ed the rich and gave it to the
poor. That's the Communist line
The Merry Men conceived their
plan over co'il'ee cups, and this month
flooded the campus with green. Stu-
dents were urged to wear buttons
that said, "They are your books; don't
let McCarthyism burn them
One pamphlet asked students to
"?Join Robin Hood's Men, who are
concerned about both Communism and
the McCarthyisim threat to American
freedom Another suggested hat
Army Secretary Robert Stevens "take
extra long arrows and use the long
bow
Said the Daily Student, campus

era will leave a bad taste in the
mouth. Maybe the Hoods will save
some of their chlorophyll green for
the occasion

Lot Of Spuds, 1,000 Pounds Of Taters
Jakes Much To Feed Students
by Pat
When the seniors of various
high schools were visitors on the
campus a few weeks ago. pro-
bably the most astounding event
of thf day was the huge amount
of food that was consumed.
Paul R. Julian, manager of the
cafeteria, reported that 800 two
and one-halt pound chickens,
1,000 pounds of potatoes, 1,000
pounds of cabbage, 20 gallons
of pickles, 100 gallons of punch
and 200 pounds of corn meal
were used in the prepara-
tion of the vast amount of food.
He al-o declared that 40 pans,
26 by 18 inches were used to
make the 3,200 pieces of cake
that were enjoyed by the many
students. He estimated that ap-
proximately 2,500 persons were
fed.
Humphrey
On the other hand, during the
weekend when so many stu-
dents P? home, the foou .prepara-
tion is equally difficult. Usual-
ly, a re or: is handed in every
Friday from each girl dormi-
tory at 10 a. m reporting the
number of girls who have signed
out to go home. This numbear is
t i-n doii led and one hundred
extra is added to include the ap-
proximate number of boys who
are also going home.
There are also many other
equally important phases in the
preparation of the food, but these
are too numerous to mention.
However, the staff of the cafe-
teria has one aim; that is, to
please the tastes of each student
in the college.

Monday, May 10, at 7:30 p. m. in
Austin auditorium, awards will be
presented to our outstanding Seniors
and leading students. Thase will be
departmental awards, publication
awards, athletic letters and individ-
ual awards.
To be eligible for a departmental
award, a student must have at least a
2 average in that department. These
awards may go to either a major or
a minor of the department. Of para-
mount consideration in choosng a
candidate for a deDartmental award
are departmental effort, cooperation
and scholasitic ability.
The boys who played football, bas-
ketball, baseball and other sports this
year will receive letters.
The people responsible for our
weekly newsipaper and our annual
will be recognized and presented with
Publication Awards.
The members of this year's Stu-
dent Legislature, which was the
school's most active to date, will get
individual awards.
The Outtanding Student Citizen
Award, in our opinion by far the
most noteworthy, will be presented.
This ier-on is selected by a vote
of the Student Government Legis-
lature.
The students who were selected for
"Who's Who in American Colleges
and Universities" will be officially
recognized.
All of these people have worked
long and hard, and richly deserve the
honor for which they have been
chosen. Part of that honor should be
that they have a large portion of the
student body there to witness the
presentation of awards and applaud
the recipients.
In the past this program has never
raw ived the attention it deserves from
the students. The attendance, since
we have been enrolled at East Caro-
lina, has been, to say the least, very
poor. It is much too late to do any-
thing about the small numfcer of peo-
ple that saw fit to attend in the past,
but we can certainly see that it does
not happen thi- year.
Every student -hould feel that it
is a duty, as well as an honor, to be
present when the school's leading
students, the one's who were a iwi-
mary force in our school's progress
this year, receive the honors which
they so richly deserve.

exacting; others think the girls are bles
with leniency.
Those who wish to be argumentative v
the rules of the handbook take such excerpts
from the text a.s the one pertaining to the iu
sity of women students signing out for rid

As the situation stands, girls who are cauj

must, by the rules, sign out and in on her social
card.
The argument in favor of this restriction is
that the Dean of Women has a right to know
where girls in her charge are. She would certain-
ly not appreciate having any of the women stu-
dents involved in an auto accident, especially if
she did not know that said students were even
in an automobile.
So the argument gees. Students are divided
in their views on the matter.
Shirley Johnson, a sophomore, thinks I
rules are satisfactory. She agrees with those who
say that the girls would be too careless about
such things as signing cut and in if thev were
not endangered by the thought of demerits. "We
are very lucky to have as much freedom as we
have, and we should be willing to abide bv the
tew restrictions which might be a little unreason-
able in virw of the fact that our predicament,
on the whole, is mighty good
Richard hey, newly elected assistant treas-
urer to the SGA. thinks some of the rulings in
the present Handbook are definitely for im-
mature girls and old maids. He states. "Girls
who are old enough to come to college should
not have to sign in and out everytime thev need
to go buy a toothbrush. Also the fact that the
girls have to abide by a lot of unnecessary rules
spoils a lot of time that they might spend in com-
panionship with the boys. The girls are luckv.
in many ways, but there are a lot of improve-
ments that can be made
First vice-president of the SGA, Louis
Singleton, has the following ideas: "I am whole-
heartedly in favor of seme of the necessary rules
which our female students have to obey. However,
1 feel that a more lenient interpretation of these
rules could be applicable at times. For example,
?? at council check is at times too "police-
like in its operation in that a complete standstill
of women s activities during certain hours is
created. To me, this complete "monkey-wrench
m the wheels is unnecessary and a more smooth
operation of council checks could be reached

and respect of every opponent the
Pirates encounter. Others who can
jar you into next week with their
smashing line play are George Tucker,
Dickerson, George Rice, Paul Popov,
Tim Krmon, William Chadwick, and
Anwer Joseph.
Selected All-Conference and honor-
able mention All-State was Louis
Hallow who will be back next year
at center. This outstanding lineback-
er is gaining the reputation as the
most savage tackier in North Caro-
lina. Gaither Cline, senior from
YOUR AUTHORIZED
Keepsake
DIAMOND
Dealer
Giasitonia, is another center who will
contribute much to the Pirates for-
tunes next Fall. Waverly Ghesson
also will be groomed for plenty of
action at the snapper-back post.
Honorable mention Little All-
America, All-State, All-Conference
are the banners that go with Dick
Cherry's name. The blond quarter-
backing genuis will be returning for
two more years of gridiron wars and
we submit only one word in con-
nect ie.i wit v Cherry's football apti-
rltude?tclasis! Boyd Weibbj, a norther
s nior from Gasitonia, enjoyed his best
year last season and will return for
the second-in-command position under
the center. Milt Collier, who proved
himself as a passer last year will also
return.
The halfbacks will number many
and the calibre will be terrific. Among
them will be All-Stater Paul Gay.
To, py Hayes, Emo Boado, Tom Alls-
brook, Jim Stanley, Bobby Gay, Jerry
Holt, Harold O'Kelly and newcomer
Gary Maddox are the swiftiea that
you should keop and eye on.
The schedule for next year calks
for West Chester in the opener. Le-
nir Rhyno in Hickory is the second
a'air. We say a 32-13 victory for
i e Pirates. Coach Clyde Biggers
brings his vengence-bent eleven here
on Octobr 2, We guess a 14-12 squeek-
er for the Piratesu Next Elon fur-
nishes the opposition in Burlington.
We expect a 36-0 win for the Pi-
rates. On October 16 WCTC comes
o town to taste a 26-12 defeat. East
Tennessee comas further East on
Octa er 23. A 32-12 win for the Pi-
rates. The Pirates motor to Appa-
lachian on October 30. We believe
?om tiling like an 18-0 win for the
Pirates, Tampa will be heated by a
28-6 thrashing from the Pirates on
this Florida trip. Stetson will bow in
College Stadium by a 42-0 count on
November 13.
Finer Pitches Triumph
As Buccaneers Regain
Bohunk From Bulldogs
Senior Righthander Jim Piner, out
with a sore arm for much of the
season, pitched East Carolina to n
9-7 win over Atlantic Christian Col-
lege here Saturday in a game marred
by 16 errors.
The win brought the Bohunk Tro-
phy, the victors' prize in contests
between the two schools, back to
East Carolina.
East Carolina jumped on the Bull-
dogs six foot, ten inch hurler, John
Marley in the last of the third for
four runs. The Bulldogs came back
for two in the top of the fourth ut
the Pirates matched it in the latter
half of the same inning
Errors gave the Bulldogs two more
in the top of the sith but a three
run outburst by the Bucs in the same
inning provided the winning margin.
Paul Jones singled home Piner and
Cecil Heath scored from third when
the ACC catcher dropped a third
Ktrike on Bob Penley. Jones and Pen-
ley then combined for a double steal
to give the Bucs their third run.
In the ninth inning, however, the
Bulldogs threatened to pull the con-
test out of the fire. Successive Pi-
rate errors put Ronald Percise and
James Davis on base and then Jerry
Williams, the day's batting star,
tripled home both runners. Williams
was out, however, trying to stretch
the blow into a home run.
Two more runners reached base and
ten Coach Earl Smith called on
fr -ihman Mac Cherry to relieve P:ner.
Cherry forced James Gray to ground
out to save the win for Piner.
A total of sixteen errors were
committed in the shoddy and loosely
played content. Ten were charged to
; East Carolina with third baseman
Ray Penn ngton commiting four.
Th? fielding gem of the day came
i in the eighth inning when Atlaiy.ic
Christian's Ronald Percise drove a
I screeching fly ball to deep center
I field. The Buc's Major Hooper ?cut-
j tied back in time to make a leaping,
one hand catch to cut down a potent-
ial extra-base blow.
Piner surrendered ten hits in pitch-

Pirate Face Guilford
In Contest Tomorrow;
Elon in tfto North State Conference's
Eastern Division race.
The two tarns met early this month
in a contest played at Guilford. That
fray went to the Bucs by a 12-7
count.
Wednesday the two teams meet
again when the Quakers come back
ho Greenville for another contest. A
week from tomorrow the final con-
test of the year between the two
clubs will be played at Guilford.
Following the series with Guilford ;
?he Pirates will have only three more I
game- on their slate. A doubleheader
at Elon May 8 may well decide the
divis'oi's top position. Elon currently
owns p. n 8-1 mark with their only set-
back coming at the hands of East
Carolina.
The final game of the year will be
laved here against arch-rival Atlan-
tic Christian with the Bohunk Tro-
I phy once more at stake.

PEEVED, ANYONE
(ACP)?At the University of
Toledo, Ohio, the Campus Collegian's
inquiring reporter sought students'
and faculty members' pet peeves.
Here are some of the results:
"Teachers fail to realize that they
have been teaching the same subject
for a number of years says one stu-
dent. "They think we should know as
much as they do in a much shorter
time
"For the most part complains an
English professor, it is the lack of
curiosity which I oibject to. Students
are not interested in learning just
for the sake of knowing something.
Everything must have a practical
application
Aaiother professor terms "laziness"
his pet peeve. "College students are
the only people in the world he says,
"who pay for something and then do
their best to cheat themselves out
of it
NO FIGHTS FOR THE GIRLS
(ACP)?A time-honored spring
tradition bit dry dust at the Univer-
sity of Washington recently when
sororities officially outlawed water
fighting.
The sororities are to be governed
by a Panhellenic ruling that says,
"Any sorority participating in, or
encouraging in any way, water fights
is subject to a minimum penalty of
$1 to $5 a member and a maximum
penalty of $1 a member and social
probation for one quarter
But just because the women don't
want to fight is no sign the men are
ready to quit.
Th interfratemity council has no
policy on water fights, "unless they
become violent
THEN THERE WAS THE PROF
WHO
(ACP)?How absent-minded can a
professor fee?
A claee at Oregon State College ,
organized one day to find out. By
prearrangemenx, they protested to a
?professor that he had failed to an-
nounce a test he was scheduled to
give them.
Startled?and clearly confused?by
the mass argument, the professor
postponed his test.
