Editorial Comment
by Faye B. O'Neal
During 4be pas few weeks, eur
office has been in a buzz with con-
versation concerning a letter printed
in the October 8 issue of this news-
paper. A good number of people have
been quite concerned. The students
have undoubtedly been looking to the
newspaper to clarify the situation,
since it was here that it was brought
into existence.
We have hesitated to make a hasty
decision. After talking to the
writer of the first letter, the em-
ployer and our editorial advisor, we
decided that further investigation
would be wise before printing any-
thing else.
Now, in the light of the wishes of
those immediately involved, we are
printing the facts of the situation,
as presented by the President of the
Student Government Association who
is not immediately concerned except
for 'his interest in seeing the pro-
blem handled in the most intelligent
and fair manner possible.

Dear Fellow Students:
A situation has arisen on campus,
and as president of the Student Gov-
ernment Association, I feel that it is
my duty to clarify it for the stu-
dents.
In the October 8 issue of the "East
Carolinian there appeared in this
column a letter signed "A Disgrun-
tled Student" which voiced a com-
plaint about faculty members on stu-
lenl committees and clubs. Because
of what the student said in tihis let-
ter, i.ot because he wrote the letter,
he was asked to resign his josh in the
Dean of Men's office. He was not
fired as a self-ihelp student. He is
privileged to hold some other posi-
tion in the self-help program, but
because of the opinions he expressed
in the letter, the Dean of Men felt
that the student, who not only work-
ed in the Dean of Men's office but
personally represented the Dean of
Men while he was employed, was . them and their significance.
ting the purpose of the office Previously, people have filled the
The time has come when it's even more than
trite to say thai East Carolina College is grow-
ing. And it's very logical to follw this worn-out
statement by pointing out that the result of that
growth is tt change on the campus. Those who
remember East Carolina a few years ago, even
just one year back, notice this change. Whether
it is s mething ?o be desired or not, lies in one's
own interpretation of what is the best atmos-
phere for a college campus.
The change was inevitable; it is equally in-
evitable that it will bec me more and more mark-
ed as the school continues to grow. Just what is
it. before we decide whether it is good or bad?
The increase in enrollment has partially cre-
ated this change in atmosphere. Every individual
has his own specific personality. When only one
new personality is added to a group, there is an
evident change: when several hundred new per-
sonalities come into the picture, it is definitely
altered.
3 happens every year when
i es to campus. Look at it
Sectional and state differ-
are most astounding. Though
his own personality, there is
ference in two students when
one is from Murphy and the other from Manteo
than if they both come from llobersonville. Out-
of-state backgrounds make for an even more ob-
vious difference. East Carolina students this year
come from SI counties in North Carolina; almost
a hundred come from lb other counties This is
an explanation then for the change in atmos-
phere. The campus is becoming more of a melting
pot.
Another reason that there is a change on
the campus here, and this applies to all col-
lege campuses, is the w Icome signs of more
intellectual probing. Today's high school youth.
on his way to college, know more about inter-
national affairs. He knows more of classical lit-
erature and he knows more about social adapta-
tion. He has harned these things through radios,
movies, tei vision, simplified books and the co-
operative media of communication that modern
Americans are njoying. Tin re is more to know
and young people today show signs of wanting
to learn. It is unsafe to remain uneducated and
it is good. then, that there is a healthy thirst for
education.
Competition is keen in twentieth century
America. Job-seekers know that they have to
learn more about their field of vocational in-
terest than was necessary during the last gen-
eration. Competition becomes more firmly em-
bedded in American ecomony every year. Then
it is an ambitious group of students who enter
college today. And these students become watch-
ful and shrewd because they want to get ahead.
Has the hitherto undisputed fact that "East
Carolina College has the friendliest campus in
N. C been challenged by the change in at-
mosphere? Do we become so preoccupied that
we forget to smile and speak to strangers when
they visit our school? We gamble and say that
the college is not radiating with greeting as it
was a few years back. But the student body this
year is a good group. They are intelligent and
seem, in the main, capable of accepting the re-
sponsibilities of coming to college and maturing

to the friendly feeling that has always existed.
More Campus Pests
This past week it was noticed by many of
the students that ants were on the dining hall
tables. While the foot! is good it does little for
the student's appetite to have insects come
marching up on one's tray.
Surely something can be done and soon by
the proper authorities. We still have a long way
to go in doing away with those annoyances which
aie also unsanitary. Between the gnats, rats and
ants some of our older dorms leave much to be
desired. While students have to live in them, who
wants to bring back some food from home to have
it ruined by ants? This is just one of numerous
problems presented by their presence. How about I about him As for Paul's first im-

There were rumors on campus that
the student would be forced to resign
his office as president of a student
fraternity; however, this is not so.
This student has not been deprived
of any rights which we accept as
American citizens. Due to the great
interest and controversy which this
incident caused I feel that it is only
fair to let the students know that no
in justice has been done.
The administration and the Student
Government Association appreciate
the interest shown in this student's
behalf, and, should anyone desire
further information about this matter
they will be welcomed by either Dean
Prewett or me.
Yours truly,

Wade Cooper, President
To the Students:
There has been much discussion
lately since the Student Legislature
passed an amendment dealing with
regulations concerning men students.
Before the students vote oil this
group of regulations, we want you,
the students, to clearly understand
offices of the Men's Judiciary but
have been inactive. Now we feel
that these regulations are needed and
should bef rought "out of moth balls
They are not a new bunch of rules
but a revision of the old regulations.
If a studetit accuses another stu-
dent of some misconduct he will
have to appear before the Judiciary
to make his accusation. This will
eliminate "behind the back" methods
and accusations.
This letter is written with the hope
that people will read carefully this
amendment to the S.G.A. By-Laws
without jumping to the conclusion
that it is just a group of rules being
thrown in the face of men students.
If anyone wants an explanation or
answer to a question he may contact
any officer of the Men's Judiciary
for further imformation. Our plea is
for you to get a complete and clear
understanding of these regulations
before voting on this very important
matter.
Sincerely.
OFFICERS OF MEN'S JUDICIARY
Ed Matthews, Chairman
Kris Anderson, Vice Chairman
Gene D. Lanier, SecTress.
As a result of the conditions cre-
ated by the printing of the letter
to the editor mentioned above, the
paper is to practice a new policy this
year. We will print letters to the
editor only if their writers are will-
ing to have their names published.
This is our decision after lengthy
consideration. We have heretofore
printed letters without publishing
the names of their authors if we
were requested to handle them that
way.
We have two reasons for our new-
decision. The first is the belief that
any person should have developed suf-
ficient maturity by the time he en-
ters college to help him realize that
he can't say everything that comes
to his mind but must exercise good
judgment and weigh his ideas care-
fully before he writes for publication.
He shou.d know that he will
be judged iby what "re says, a? well
as what he does. Theretfbre, if he
wishes to say something publicly, it
should be something of which he can
be proud. In this case, if you want
to have something printed for every-
one to read, make it something you
are proud to admit you said.
Reason two for our new policy is
that the newspaper cannot be respon-
sible for things written by those
outside its staff. We add further that
we deem it within our rights to with-
hold from publication any statement
that we feel will result in more dam-
age than good.

Male Styles
You have probably noticed that
pink and black are the dominating
colors in the boy's wardrobe this fall.
A pink shirt, black pants with a pdnk
suede belt (pants pegged, of course),
pink and black argyle socks, and
black loafers is the outl t o ftie day.
Adding a ; ink sweater or .lacn coat
along with a pink and black tie make
the outfit still more complete.
There are quite a few of these
outfits around campus!
A freshman boy tells the story of
wearing the black pants with the
pink flaps on the pockets and pink
-iripes down each side to the Caro-

back.
"People really stared at me and
even called me 'Harry High School "

By the way, he has now discarded

Last week we presented our wishes
that a lost and found department be
officially recognized on this campus.
Already a move has been made in
that direction. The Alumni Office
and the Dean of Women's office have
shouldered the responsibility hereto-
fore, but now the Recreational Di-
rector, Miss Cynthia Mendenhall, has
been made official supervisor of the
campus lost and found. Dean Ruth
White has reported that all articles
turned in to her office will be sent
directly to Miss Mendenhall, unless
identification is evident on the ar-
ticle, such as a wallet with an iden-
tification card. Likewise, the Alumni
Office is turning over its group of
articles to the Student Union Offices.
The newspaper will cooperate with
Miss Mendenhall. Student should pre-
sent news about lost and found arti-
cles to Miss Mendenhall first, how-
ever.

Hallowe'en Fete
by Pat Humphrey
The customs and superstitions
gathered through the ages go into
our celebration of Hallowe'en, or
"Holy Eve as some call it, on Octo-
ber 31. This particular day is so
named because it is the eve of the
festival of All Saints, but many of
, the beliefs and observances connected
with it arose long before the Chris-
tian era, in the autumn festivals of
old-time pagan people.
At the beginning of November each
year, the ancient Druids had a three-
day celebration. They believed that
the spirits of the dead roamed around,
and on the eve before the day of
celebration, they lighted bonfires to
drive these spirits away.
In ancient Rome, the festival of
Pomona, goddess of fruits and gar-
dens, occurred about this time of the
year. It was always an occasion of
rejoicing associated with the harvest,
and nuts and apples, as symbols of
the winter store of fruit, were roast-
ed before huge bonfires.
In the British Isles laughing bands
of young people disguised themselves
in grotesque masks and carried lan-
terns carved from turnips. They
gathered about huge bonfires which
were kept burning in each village.
Out Hallowe'en celebrations today
keep many of these early customs.
Young and old alike still gather to
bob for apiples m a tub of water.
Grinning pumpkin jack-o-lanterns,
rustling cornstalks, and white-aheet-
ed figures create an air of mystery,
as well as black
witches.
The Robert H. Wright Chapter of Fu1
Teachers of America, located on the East
Una Campus, has recently received a tribute
which we feel deserves recognition. The I
chapter has been named the National Bai
Chapter and awarded the National Banner I
tii'ieate which was shown the enthusiastic ci
ter members at the October meeting. We won
if the students of East Carolina realize the
gree of honor accompanying this award. 1
year a representative committee of the Nat;
Education Association, of which FT A is a bra:
selects one FTA Chapter from the hundred
chapters all over the nation to receive this
eted award. Selection is based on several r
requirements, one being continuity of growth
over a period of years.
Our chapter is now in its seventeenth j
and has been working with this award
goal for some time. Under the sponsors;
leadership of Miss Emma Hooper, of the E
lish Department, the Robert H. Wright Chapter
has realized a dream come true, literally. Beyond
a doubt, this organization has worked hard
this honor. We should take pride in its a
plishment. whether we hold membership in the
chapter, or not. East Carolina's FTA accom-
plishment is just one more stepping stone toward
the growth and development of East Carolina
as a major state institution.
A couple of weeks ago, some wise people on
campus put their heads together and decided to
change the time for chapel from 12:00 noon on
Tuesday to 5:00 p. m. Without thinking, the
reaction of some would be that this committee,
if we may be broad and refer to these people
by that name, merely moved chapel time from
lunch to supper. To some extent, this is true.
but we sincerely believe that for the majori-
ty of students who attend chapel services. 5:00
is a much better time. There are students who
could not previously attend chapel because of
conlhcting schedules and the lunch period. Now
these students can enjoy lunch and go to chape!
too. if they wish. We think the change was a
good thing. Attendance seems to justify the move.
Last Tuesday night, temperatures in the
whole of Greenville were cool except for one spot
on eighth street. That spot was the Baptist
Student Center. There, the thermometer sud-
dely shot upward in the wee hours of the morn-
ing, as the occupants of the center were awakened
by choking smoke. The cause of the blaze, which
destroyed the furnace and some furniture in the
game room and littered the house with soot and
smoke stain, was a spark that escaped from the
oats and paper furnance, also located in the game room, and
set fire to a nearby couch.

Carolina plays Appalachian in games
that may well decide the North State

Asp; alaehiari can dispose of all con-

downing East Carolina, last year's
champs now mathematically eliminat-
ed. The Apps are unbeaten. A win
for East Carolina, however, would
leave Elon in a position to tie for the
crown provided that the Christians
upend Western Carolina.
Elon, in having lost only one con-
ference game, may finish in a dead-
lock with Ai palachian if it wins the
rest of its slate while East Carolina
posts an upset this weekend. The
Pirates, though having but one league
loss also, are eliminated in that they
play only five conference games, one
less than the two contenders.

Mountaineer Win
Will Give Apps
Conference Title
With nothing to gain other than
a little (prestige, East Carolina Col-
lege meets Appalachian at Boone
Saturday right in the final confer-
ence game of the year for the Pirates.
For An alachian, however, the
game means either a conference
championship or, should they lose,
the possibility of a tie for the title.
Elon's Christians are the lone remain-
ing contenders and their chances are
considered slim.
Currently, the Appalachian record
stands at 5-0 wfhile East Carolina,
last y ar's champs1 and pre-season
"avorites, are second at 3-1. The Pi-
rates, however, have been eliminated
in that they play only five conference
games.
Both teams warmed up for this
week's contest by playing outside
opposition last Saturday. The Moun-
taineers disposed of Emory and Hen-
ry to the tune of 21-0 while East
Carolina and East Tennessee were
battling to a 6-6 tie.

victory over Emory and Henry came
word that the Apps had been selected
to play in the Burley Bowl at John-
son City, Tenn. on Thanksgiving Day.

lineup, suffered a broken leg against
Lenoir Rhyne and will be out for tine

pivot spot for the Mountaineers.

The fourth quarter provided so.ue
of the evening's best play with eadb
side tossing passes for gains of 50
yards and two field goal attempts,
one by each side, falling short. Short-
ly after the period opened Wilson,
who played the entire 60 minutes
and directed the Buccaneers master-
fully, passed half the length of the
field to halfback Buzzy Breeding.
Breeding was stopped on the East
Carolina 25 and the Pirates held.
In the fading moments of the game
quarterback Milton Collier came on
to toss a 55-yard gainer to Harold
O'Kelly on a play which carried to
the Buccaneer 19. The game ended
before the Pirates could exploit their
gain.
Standout players fr the Bucca-
neers in addition to Wilson were full-
back Bud Saulsbury, who consistently
cracked the Pirate line, and half-
htacks Breeding and Warren.

TOASTED
to taste better!
What cigarette do college students go for?
According to the latest, biggest coast-to-
coast survey, students prefer Luckies to all
other brands. And once again, the No. 1
reason is better taste. Of course Luckies
taste better. First of all, Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is
?toasted to taste better. "Ifs Toasted'?the
famous Lucky Strike process?tones up
Luckies' light, mild, good-tasting tobacco
to make it taste even better. Try a pack.
Maybe you'll be as fortunate as the student
in the Droodle to the right, titled: Lucky
smoker . . . faulty cigarette vending ma-
chine. Even if you're not, you'll enjoy the
better-tasting cigarette Lucky Strike.

Editor's Note: The following arti- live the rest of his days under the their "boy-frienda

life of a young girl and of a little
child, and perhan it were better for
the peace of his soul were he dead.
I can very well believe that he
was a "kind gentle boy" in whom
there was no native criminality; his
photograph seems to reveal limited
intelligence, rather than brutality.
But what made him go berserk, so

think it is a good example of current
reasoning on its subject. Dorothy

The question arises spontaneously

arriving shortly after 10 pjn. at a
dormitory where I was to stay, I

ECC Radio Broadcasting Staff
Seeks Technicians, Announcers
College Extension Service
Announcers, narrators, and a radio
technician who will act also as a tape
editor are wanted to conduct the radio
?broadcast sponsored by East Carolina
College. Narrators e needed to tape
record a summary of the news each
week, and also to narrate a weekly
religious script prepared by the ra-
dio station. The student acting as
radio technician and tape editor will
receive a modest hourly remunera-
tion.
Experience in this field can become
very beneficial and rewarding for
future careers. East Carolina Col-
lege has at itg disposal an unspeci-
fied amount of time for producing
radio programs. All programs are
produced and tape recorded before
the broadcast.
The us? of tape for radio pro-
grams is general in Europ?, and i?
becoming more so in the United
States. It is easier to create program8
in this manner. The invention of tape
recorded radio programs is similar
to the creation of movies.
Any student interested in this
phase of radio, or in performing for
the East Carolina College broadcasts
should contact Dr. L. E. Eckles. Dr.
Eckles, a new faculty member with
the English Department, has recently
assumed the duties of chairman of
the Radio Committee.
Approximately 400 people are en-
rolled in the 15 extension course
now being offered by East Carolina

Student Fads
by Tommie Stanton
Clothes take the spotlight in the
latest survey of the campus fads of
the local guys and gals. Among the
feminine populace oif the campus,
. ged skirts are becoming more and
more popular every day.
Of course, the most popular of the
( urrenit fads is the widespread and
ever increasing use of pony-tails to
increase the likelihood of capturing
a man's heart. You are all aware of
what a pony-tail looks like but for
? ? who don't we shall endeavor to
explain it. The first requirement is
to have long hair. Then you proceed
to roll it up into a bundle, to put it
roughly, and you then tie it with a
on or else you put a rubber band
around it. The results are very as-
tounding. Another fad which is slow-
ly becoming an accepted custom is
the idea of cutting- the front of the
hair off rio that it can lie on front
of the forehead. This has some very
; leasing effects.
Men'a fads have increased in vol-
ume as compared to the regular
amount of fads that men engage in.
As a general rule men do not engage
a great deal in fads, especially in
comparison to women. Some of the
new fads of men here at East Caro-
lina put into effect are: bop caps,
peg-ged pants, real cool sweaters, a
few mad haircuts, or maybe we
should say lack of haircuts. Bop caps
are g-etting more rare every day.
However, there are a few cool cats
that still like them. Peg pants are
too popular. Another group, as well
as the group that wears the bop
caps, still cling to these type of
things. These cats add a great deal
of variety to the everyday life. Above
and beyond all of thee fads is the
idea of some of the students to wear
these cool sweaters usually over a
T-shirt. If you are interested in
wearing one of these sweaters then
we suggest that you get a light
colored sweater that is made of wool
or nylon.
