Male students who desire scho-

coming school year should fill
out a Selective Service form 109
at the Registrar's office between

Because of the large number
dropped from AFROTC, those

he always carries a ring of keys
(that admit him to any building and
room on campus). Second, if you
notice closely, his finger tips are
slightly burned. In bis occupations
he must rely heavily on matches to

Draft Deferment
Student Exams
Set For May 20
The deadline for applications for
the Sel ctive Service examination is
midnight, May 10, according to a re-
port released from the local draft
board. The teat is an intelligence
quiz and will be givn here for the
last time this year on May 20. It is
taken to determine whether or not
male college students are eligible for
deferment from the draft.
If a student passes the exam with
a satisfactory grade, he is deferred
for four years, as long as he remains
enrolled in college. Failure to pass
the test cannot be made up, however,
as the test is only given once to the
same person.
The official designation for the
exam is the Selective Service College
Qualification test. The present cri-
teria for deferment as an undergrad-
uate student are either a satisfactory
score (70) on this test or a specified
rank in class (upper half of male
fre:hman, upper two thirds of male
sophomore, or upper three fourths of
male junior class).

Bob Pennington, an outstanding
snior from Rocky Mount, has really
gotten the most out of his college
career.
Bob chose East Carolina because
he had heard from many of his
friends what a great place this was.
He Hkes almost everything about it,
He likes most everything ai out it,
but especially the friendly, "one big-
family" atmosphere. "My previous
plans were to major in pre-med, but
I decided eight years was just a little
too long for me Bob says. "I
changed my major to industrial arts
and my minor to science.

Bob has a variety of hobbies,
and likes boat building, making fur-

skiing, fishing, hunting and almost
anything that keeps him outside.

have the opportunity to vote for one ortwo n,
bands to appear on campus during the year.
Although it would benefit us all much n.
to vote for one more good entertainment rather
than another "here today" dance band, sadly
enough, there doesn't seem to be much doubt that
we'll have two bands next year.
Coed Forgets About Points
Ruilding Progress Cited
Looking over the building expansion and
other campus improvements East Carolina has
made rapid advancement this year. An outlook to
next year shows that even more progress will be
le in the building program.
To begin with, a college telephone switch-
b -ard was installed to provide more and quicker
communication on campus. Seating capacity at
the College Stadium was increased by 1,400 last
fall through the efforts of the Pirates Club, or-
ganized last year by interested alumni and Green-
ville business concerns.
Ragsdale Hall got an additional wing that
furnishes 90 more male students here with living
quarters. Plans are underway to start construc-
tion on a men's and a women's dorm which will
w over 5)0 more students on campus.
More sidewalks and drives have been laid
r cently to ease the flow of automotive and pa-
destrian traffic. More parking areas are being
constructed to meet the present needs and the
anticipated larger number of cars on campus next
year. , . .
The new Joyner Library is almost completed
and will be ready for occupancy next fall. This
huge building with its many rooms should ade-
quatelv accomodate students and books.
By next fall the renovated Wright basement
will be completed for a Student Union, housing
the Student Supply Stores and offices of student
affairs.
Credit for this campus expansion is due to
many persons, but in particular to President
John D. Messick, who showed our state legislators

Getting back to cigarette advertis-

is a large majority of smokers already
on this camipus and our advertisers
are trying to get tihese to consume
their brand.
Iif a person makes up his mind
that he won't smoke, no advertise-
ment or any other means will force
him to the hahit. The alumna who
is against college cigarette ads prob-
ably subscribes to a quality national
magazine which advertises liquor.
Now liquor forms a habit worse than
tobacco. Again the same rule applies,
"if a person makes up his mind not
to drink, he isn't, regardless
Those liquor ads help support that
national magazine just as the cig-

To the Editor,
There are some questions that
come in mind as I read the editorial

nists First, should we abolish all
celebrations that are pagan in origin?
Including Christmas? Or only those
tr.iat have not been transformed Into

propriations wisely.
There Are Criminals On Campus
There are criminals on this campus. Now
that final exams will be coming up two weeks
fr m today, there will be students committing
such crimes as breaking-and-entering and lar-
It sounds bad to place these violations ot
c liege regulations in criminal lingo, but the of-
fenses are just about on the same order.
Cheating itself sounds minor. But it isn't.
N t when an instructor's office is opened by a
pass key and next day's exam is stolen. This is
the same as breaking-and-entering with a larceny
charge. . ,
Looking on someone's paper daring an exam
to get information is petty larceny. This is a
criminal offense in regard to stealing something
from its rightful owner. It isn't fair to this own-
er who has worked for himself to get his mark.
In the long run. the fellow who gets cheated
is the one who does the cheating. This phrase has
been used several times to curb cheating but it
does not seem to faze those cheating. If a student
feels that he must cheat to pass a course, then
he isn't receiving what that course offers includ-
ing the benefits frcm it in later life.
We are all probably against cheating. We
are probably guilty of a little cheating ourselves.
But are we willing to put it to a screeching halt
now?

The work and organization which developed
May Day into the spectacle we saw Saturday
afternoon was a tribute to every member that
participated in the affair.
The real problem which May Day ha

Wednesday night by Miss Shaw of the phj
education "department.
The problem of "pupil participation" mal

don't seem to want to be in the program, al-

It is, of course, too early to get
a positive picture of the new Student
Legislature and to judge what that
body will accomplish, but we believe
some rdcent actions of the group are
of enough importance to merit con-
significant changes and is hard at
the coming year.
After only two meetings the new
legislature has already made some
significant changes and is hard at
work on others.
In the past no accurate records si
all that happened at the meetings
were kept. In the minutes of past
years only passed motions were in-
cluded in tihe official record. Items on
which the body spoke its opinion by
a negative voice were not included.
Often the names of those appointed
to serve on committees were omitted.
At the last meeting this was changed
when a point of order was raised
from the floor and from thus time
forth the record of the body will be
complete. The value of this change
is self-evident.
Alvo in tihe past the total vote
received by each candidate in camipus-
wide elections has been kept secret.
A resolution was adopted at the last
meeting which requires that all totals
be made public as soon as possible
after an election. This change of what
had long been a custom of this school
is significant for two reasons. First,
the public announcement of the re-
turns is, we believe, a step forward
in democratic seltf-govermnent by the
students here. And second, the
change shows that we are capable
of sometimes getting away from pre-
cedence, of making changes when
they are needed.
The new administration has also
made an early start on next year's
Homecoming in order to make it tihe
best we have ever had. Much can be
done to improve Homecoming and it
appears as if the present committee
is approaching the matter in a
straightforward, progressive way.
As we said at tie beginning of this
article it is too early to judge the
new Legislature and administration.
But devekn, mentis o far give the im-
pression that a progressive attitude
is being taken. East Carolina is a
growing school. While in this state
of growth it is always changing. It
is the duty of all of us, individually
and through our elected officials, to
do what we can to lead this growth
in the right direction. At this stage
in our growth we can't afiford to relax
our efforts to improve East Carolina.
We hope tihat the recent attitude
of the Legislature and administration
will be carried through next year
and that every student on this cam-
pus will be ready at all times to help
in carrying out their program. Im-
provement and advancement must be
the work of many. The effort of
everyone is needed.

On Marshal Glory
by Faye O'Neal
by Faye O'Neal
Many students here consider the selection
the college marshals nothing but a farce. Seem-
ingly there are only a few who know anyth
about the requirements for those who want to be
marshals who still think that the honor is really
an honor.
This discussion was begun in the East Caro-
linian a few issues back. After hearing comrn
in conversations with different groups around
school, we decided to go further with it.
Major requirements for being a marsh
East Carolina follow, as copied from the 1953-54
Handbook: The scholarship of marshals shall
attain an average of not less than a three; . . .
the chief marshal shall be elected from among
th( m by a majority of all the marshals . . no
nember of . . . any organization which perfor
at commencement may be a marshal.
Other requirements concern dress and
formance of duties after election. Marshals art
picked by a student vote each spring during the
annual SGA elections.
The requirements regarded as too general
are the major ones. An average of three ;s re-
quired of any student who remains in school here;
it is, then, evident that excellence of scholarship
boars no emphasis in the situation. Maybe the
idea that the marshals are those with the highest
(Trades came from high school customs. At any
rate it is safe to say that most people look on them
as representing the best scholarship attainment.
The chief marshal is chosen from the midst.
therefore, she has no superiority. Yet the honor
is considered among the highest one can achieve
here. Bearing no thought of disrespect for any
of those who have been picked as chief marshal.
many of the students think the position is filled
without proper thought.
Also in dispute is whether or not student
election is a valid way to select marshals. The
ballot has in the past listed names of all the girls
who wished to be candidates and voters have been
asked to check 16. The voters check those names
?"hey recognize and pick some others they don't
even know to finish out the number in most ca
Thus the situation develops from a popularity
contest to a pick and choose game.
Helen Bland believes the situation is in dire
need of improvement. At least a two average
should be required, she believes, and the student
should not be allowed to choose the marshals.
She suggests that they be picked by a committee,
made up preferably of faculty and SGA members.
Fan Green considers being a marshal quite
an honor. She thinks, however, that the marshals
should be at least nominated by a committee
similar to the one Helen suggests.
Kathryn Smith says: "Th? girls who fill the
honored position of college marshal should be
carefully scrutinized in regard to scholarship and
leadership ability, moral character and general
personality. They represent East Carolina College
to the public and should be the best representa-
tives in every way
One girl who is now serving as a marshal
states that she is inclined to agree with those who
think the honor has faded from the job. Another
well-known co-ed who has more than the require-
ments refused to run because she saw no honor
in winning.

Friday appeared in the Raleigh "News

blame anyone for this?perhaps it
was an oversight?but we certainly
were disappointed that the good word
wasn't spread.
Practically everyone knew that
State was having one of its worst
track seasons in history but few
though i at the Pirates, in the first
intercollegiate meet ever run by this
school, would stand a chance against
tihe more experienced Wolfpack.
Students and faculty can well be
I roud of the athletic accomplishm. nt
and can expect a good showing on the
; art of the squad in the coming
conference meet.
Lenoir Rhyme's Bears, the confer-
ence's dominant power in track for
v .e past several years, still is rated
as the team to beat. The Bears always
turn out a good club in any sport

season, but his skillful slants enabled
him to obtain runner-up honors with
a five and four record. His accurate

a : record.
Frazier Bruton, always a difficult
man to deal witih, proved to be a
giant killer as the pint-sized racquet-

perfective strokes earned him a four

East Carolina's rampaging golf
team is perched on the top in the
North State standings after two
matches witih High Point. The power-
ful oca! linksters defeated the Pan-
thf ? s rom High Point both rays last
week by identical scores of 1S-0. Dave
Martin, East Carolina's "Slamming
Sam was medalist both days with
a 74 followed by 73 the second day.
Cither scores of the second contest
include: Harry Rainey, 74, and Pat
Hunt, 76.
The victory was the fourth con-
secutive one for the Pirates against
Morten State Conference competition.
They have lost only to Salisbury
Country Club in a non-conference
match.
Tihe conf" rence championship will
be decided this week by the tourna-
ment which will start Thursday at
the Starmount course in Greensboro.
East Carolina is the defending cham-
pion. Four men will make the trip.
There are Dave Martin. Pat Hunt,
Claude King, and Harry Rainey.
Boih Braun and Dave Martin of
East Carolina finished second and
third respectively in last year's tour-
nament in the individual honors brac-
ket. In the tournament each indi-
vidual player's score is added on to
the others who make up the team
and the lowest team total represents
'the championship team.
The golfers were confronted with
the problem of a limited home sched-
ule this year. In fact, the overall
schedule was very limited and this
was very disadvantageous to the
squad. This competition limitation
should have had a bad effect on the
local squad, but the power-driving
Pirates have made the most of their
disadvantages.
East Carolina should come through
with the individual crown as well as
the team crown. Either one of the
four Pirates making the trip is capa-
ble of winning the individual honors.

East Carolina College made a suc-
cessful debut in a new sport Friday
as the Pirate track squaa turned in
an impressive 58-55 win over Norwi
Carolina State College on the losers
field. The outing marked the first
time in history that a track team
has been fielded by East Carolina.
The charges of Coach Leon Ellis
proved their merit in the final event
of the day when, trailing 55-53, they
rallied to take the mile relay which
was good for a winning five points.
Ex-Greenville High School athletic
star Bobby Perry paced the Pirate
triumph. Perry collected firsts in the
100 and 200-yard dashes, the broad
jump and ran a leg on the winning
relay team to collect 16 1-4 points.
Eight Firsts
East Carolina took eight first pla-
ces, four in the races and four in
field events. Other firsts collect d by
the Pirate tracksteris included Jack
Picktt's win in the 440, Dave Lee's
victory in tihe shot put and two firsts
collected 'by Eddie Hurst in the pole
vault and javelin.
The Pirates showed particular
strength in the 220 when they swept
the tihree first positions. In addition
to Perry's first place finish the Bucs
scored on Toppy Hayes' second and
Bob Chambers' third.
Next r?n the agenda for the Bucs
?s the -rth State Conference meet
coming ip soon in which Lenoir
Rhyne's Bears are defending champs.

Bucs At Guilford
For Single Game;
Play Elon Next
Four more games remain on the
Pirate baseball schedule with the cru-
cial ones coming up Saturday at
Elon.
Tomorrow tho Bucs journey to Guil-
ford for the final bout of the year
with the Quakers and then swing
over to the home of the Christians
for an all-imiportant twin bill.
As of this writing East Carolina
is the only team in the North State
Conferences Eastern Division with
even an outside chance of nabbing
the Christians and, if they are to do
this, they'll have to sweep Saturday'
doubleheader.
Alfter the Elon games, the Pirates
return to Greenville for the final
game of the year?this one on May
12 with Atlantic Christian. This con-
test, too, depending on the outcome
o. he Elon series, may have a def-
inite effect on the final standings.
Without t.he pressure of having the
top position at stake, however, the
two clubs will still be tiyijig for the
right to kee,p the Bohunk Trophy
through the summer months. Cur-
rently the Bohunk, an aged wooden
ucket awarded to the victor of each
game between the two schools, is in
possession of the Bulldogs. The Pi-
rates had it at the start of the base-
ball season, lost it in the first game
against AtC; got it back; lost it again,
and now must retrieve it a second
time.
