A Little Cleaner Now!
A visitor to our office remarked on the dif-
ference in atmosphere in the new soda shoppe in
comparisi n to that of the old student hang-out
which the upperclassmen here remember so well.
He qualified his statement by saying that the
students are keeping their "tavern" much cleaner
nowadays. After thinking it over and watching
a little more critically, we find that the opinion
was a well-taken bit of truth.
Last year when the soda shop kings and
ens gathered in the little bit of space allocated
to them in the dining hall lobby, there was hardly
ever a clean spot to be found on the floor and
paper cups and candy wrappers covered the table
tops pretty thoroughly, just barely leaving room
for the scattered cigarette butts which had stop-
ped on their way down. There was so much noise
v thai you didn't even hear the hellos
of yi ur friends. It was a place rich with atmos-
phere, and a great number of the students would
like to have it back again, if only because Af very
sentimental memories. But we have to Hi ami
it was dirty most of the time.
The new soda shop and lounge is so much
and offers so much more in the way of
entertainment that much of the energy that was
cramped and exploded by the smallness of the old
"Y Shop" is taken care of by spaciousness. The
booths are more comfortable and the table tops
are shinier and less tempting to knives. The
whole of the student union is under the efficient
supervision of the college's first director of rec-
reation, and this makes a lot of difference. The
clean-up crew over there is really on the ball!
Vet we think the students deserve some rec-
ognition for the care they have obviously taken
while patronizing their "tavern It is commend-
able when a group as large as that usually found
in the soda shop remembers to throw their candy
wrappers and cups in the trash cans and put their
cigarettes in the ash trays. We hope our praise
is not premature.
Watch That Cigarette!
Smoking is the favorite habit of most of the
students here. Cigarettes are about as essential to
the largest group of us as coffee at breakfast.
And we abuse our privilege to smoke about as
often as we do our right to vote in campus elec-
tions. But not in the same way; we just don't vote
in the elections and we smoke everywhere and
under most any condition.
Smoking is fine but we need to be a lot more
careful with our cigarettes. Think wrhat it takes
to make a fire: a spark of flame, ignitable or
inflammable material and oxygen. All these
things are available to all smokers. And we con-
tinue to be careless because we just don't think
about the ease with which a fire can be started
from smoking.
The situation is probably worse inside the
dormitory rooms than anywhere else. Cigarettes
are laid carelessly in ash trays or on the edge of
vanities and tables. You go out and leave them
and they either go out or keep burning. They
might fall over on the bed, as has been the case
too often, and burn right on through down into
the mattress where it's all but impossible to put
them out. Or they might fall into a wastebasket
and cause the paper inside to catch fire. If the
flames are high enough, a dormitory might be
burned to the ground.
There's no point in denying that this care-
lessness exists. Scarred tables and vanities, scor-
ched clothing and manv other like evidences prove
it.
Smoke your cigarettes and enjoy them but
be a little more careful.
Voice Of The Students
A senior woman student:
"I have been here for four years and dur-
ing that time have lived in peril of demerits
if I come out side my dorm wearing blue jeans
or with my hair in pin curls. I think this is all-
right, for no college woman should want to ap-
pear unlady-like. But it irks me to see the Green-
ville girls walking on campus dressed in jeans
with their hair in curlers and riding horses. This
campus should be off limits to horseback riders
light of the disturuin-g cir-
cumstances. Ii wms the best gawne of
the year. Those who would boast too
proudly would he wise to wait until
f.ter the nest contest between the
two teams, however. The Bulldogs
will be bent on revenge, and stand
a better chance of succeeding than
failing, for the game will be played
. their home court.
The powerful press in Raleigh, the
NEWS AND OBSERVER, condes-
cended to send Lawrence Wofford,
their are photographer, down to get
ictures of the game. Arrd then sur-
prisingly they carried a banner head
the Pirate win in Friday's paper.
We take ttbat a,s no sign that the
paper will stop looking down their
nose at ua, however. But we will
redid that the day is corning, and
ner than they now think, when
j will be proud of East Carolina

th ink t' I'm for their coverage of the
ECC-ACC game. We noted that there
was m other major college game
i tig played in the state that night.
In working over at t,ve college
li iy. we learned quite a hit about
correct procedure to use in pa-

Who's Who Among Students At East Carolina
Liberal-Minded Senior Likes Work In SGA
by Joyce Smith
This week's "Who's Who Don
King, comes to us from Goldsboro
and he has proven to be quite an
active fellow around our campus. In
expressing his opinion of East Caro-
lina College, Don says, "1 think tiat
the student body is the most con-
genial group of people I've ever
known, but I wish the school was not
quite so conservative
Don says his main reason for
choosing EC'C was the fact that he
could afford it.
While at EOC Don has taken an
active role in Student Government
work. His knowledge and keen ideas
have proven to be an asset to the
SGA. Last year Don served as His-
torian of the Student Government
Association, while this year he is
serving as chairman of the Awards
committee. Don was one of East
Carolina's delegates to the State Stu-
dent Legislature, which was held this
pa.st fall in Raleigh.
When asked for a comment on this
event, Don replied, "For me it was
a highlight ctf my four years in col-
lege. It was terrific Don's comment
on SGA was very commendable and
certainly deserves mention. "I think
that it is a shame says Don, "that

Don worked along with Owen Bes-

drawing up the changes that were
recently made in the laws of the Ju-
diciaries. It is quite evident that
they H ent much time, effort, and

This young man also is a member
of the cheating eonunittee. Don feels
that he has profited a lot by working
with the legislature.
Sports, music, reading, and social-
izing are Don's top ranking interests

other aports. He also enjoys te stu-
dent union.
Aside from his studies, activities
and hobbies, Don finds time to work
as a printer at The Daily Reflector.
Don, who is an English major and
social studies minor, will be grad-
uating at the end of t is quarter
with an A. B. degree. In expres in

About the Big Game!
ft uas a sad crowd of Atlantic
ri?tian students and WilsonianB
: made the journey back to Wilson
last Thursday night. They had been
wanting for the "big kill" for a long
time, and they were definitely fa-
vored to go home carrying the old
oak n bucket.
t was a great win for Coach Por-
ter and his fine team; they really
howed those long legged boys from
A.OC how the game is supposed to
i played. The BOC students won't
be forgetting the exciting win over
li eir arch rivals for a long, long
time!
We heard many reasons, according
to some sports writers, why the AC
team was not victorious, and we have
tried to jre-t some of them together.
From the Wilson Daily Times in
Wilson: "It was a close hair raising
serar all the way. The Bulldogs,
never able to relax, played their worst
game of the season. They stayed in
the game through sheer determina-
tion on the port of a few boys who
were not quite so awed by the tre-
mendous partisan erowd of some
3,000 folks and the deafening roara
for tin FMrates. The cheers that shook
Memorial Gym were rafter-rocking
when the Pirates took the court to
warm up. So the Bulldogs knew right
off what ti.ey were in for from the
crowd Atlantic Christian had a size-
able following, but their hurrahs were
just a murmur compared to those for
East Carolina. That definitely had its
effect. Hardly ever did the Bulldog
cage machine function anywhere near
up to par.
From some AOC followers: "East
Carolina was definitely playing over
their head; I just don't think that
they can be that hot all the time
"ACC played their wont game of
the year; I don't know what was
wrong with them
"They had just played a game
Wednesday night and they hadn't
had enough rest
ACC 1 already getting set for the
big game on the 19th. The game is
scheduled for tre Elm City high
school gym.
They are already predicting a 20-
point win. Well, all we can say is
that last Thursday night's game was
supposed to have been a "massacre"
on the part of the Bulldogs, but you
kr.ow how it turned out.
Here V There
That gal Barbara Speight really
has a good pair of lungs, but we
aren't betting on how long they'll be
lasting if she keeps doing that
"sound off" cheer. She really does do
a fine job, as well as the rest of the
cheerleaders.
Did you notice how the ECC stu-
dents were running over to the ACC
section Thursday night looking up
friendsThe ACC students were do-
ing the same thing. Guess that's why
the two schools are such rivals.
The SGA should donate one day's
"take in" from the cigarette and
chewing gum machines to the March
of Dimes. They could probably do-
nate a good sized pot!
That's around enough!
Many thanks to the merchants in
town wo contributed tickets free of
charge for our Talent Show Tuesday
night. In most cases, we have been
treated very well by the local busi-
nessmen.
We are still keen on the idea of
aving a group of students and ad-
ministration initiate a drive for re-
duced rates for college students from
the Greenville concerns. That would
be a definite step forward, in our
opinion, for the merchant would
prof ably protfit as the students would
feel much more welcome to shop here.
Someone said to us this week: "An
editorial column is jutt a place to
write a lot of things about nothing
There are times that we agree with
that. Yet isn't that what most of
conversation is?
And to go along with the subject
of conversation, did you know that
two ttiirdn of everything that is said
is fallacious? Tit is human nature,
according to those who ought to
know, that everyone tends to exag-
gerate and sway things to give a
irood impression of themselves. Just
for an experiment, one class took
i otes m conversation around the
campus. The results proved the state-
ment that most everything that is
1 is "something about nothing
or ra!lacious. So the human race is
! irv rogation of egotists and liars!
Or is that statement also fallacious?
There are still ants on the dining
room tables here! We can't do a
th;ig about it but continue to men-
tion it. We may have ants at home
but we don't have to eat with them;
we firmly believe that something
could be done about tihe situation.
Letters To Editor
The following letter was re-
ceived by Anne George, an as-
sistant editor of this paper:
Dear Anne,
I read with a great deal of inter-
est your column which dealt with the
"Fat of t e Old Soda Shop and
would like to agree wholeheartedly
with the student that suggested that
"it be made into a small dining room
that con be rented to clubs at a rea-
sonable rate for banquets and par-
ties
The studtnts of East Carolina are
badly in need of a place of this type.
Several df the local restaurants at-
tempt to meet this need, but none,
that I know of, can adequately meet
our need, especially for special events.
' li am sure that such a place would
be greatly appreciated by the stu-
dents of East Carolina and at the
same time very beneficial to the
cafeteria and the school as a whole.
Sincerely yours,
Lloyd Whitley
P. S. Another soda shop would be
nice but we need dining s(pace even
more.
(Ed. note: Letters from any inter-
ested student axe always appreciated.
The Administration's plan is to use
this extra dining room for the pur-
pose of club banquets and dinner
meetings, as there has been a need
'or a place for this purpose for some
time. As previously mentioned in tihe
column of the preceding week, this
area will also be converted into a
cafeteria to take care of the conges-
tion during the lunch hours.)
Campus Couple Of The Week
She Thought He Liked Her Pal
This week's couple has been going
together off and on for three years
with their first date being on Febr-
uary 25, 1952. They are Peggy Ed-
wards and Charles White, who both
came here from Whiteville. In ex-
pressing his (first opinion of Peggy,
Charles said, "I thought she was a
pretty nice girl Whereas Charles
was trying to get to know Peggy
through her girl friend, Peggy got
the idea that he liked her girl friend!
Peggy says, "I thought he was
rather cute and something different
so I wanted to date him, but he did
not seem to want to share the mutual
opinion
They roth recall the time when
Peggy was visiting in Charles' home.
Charles' mother, who always takes
off her rings before cooking, had
left her rings on a table in the hall.
! Embarrassment arose when Charles'
mother walked in and found Peggy
trying on tihe rings.
Another embarrassing incident
came when Charles gave Peggy her
diamond. They were in a room where
they thought no one would enter, but
they were greatly surprised when
his father walked through right in
the middle of the act. Incidentally,
this happy event took place this past
Christmas eve.
This fine couple enjoys basketball,
football and movies. They also enjoy
going dancing and window shopping.
As is so true with most couples,
their main interest is each other.
Peggy, who is a primary major,
will be a junior next quarter, while
Charles, who is a social studies ma-
jor, will be a senior. They are both
planning to teach after graduation.
"Here Comes the Bride . . This
familiar phrase will ring out for this
couple sometime in the near future;
however, they have not made defi-
nite plans. We extend to this couple
our teBt wishes.

Rhodes: And what was your re-
sponse?
Maynard: I told her that this was
the last chapter and that I was
checking out.
Joe: Did you see "The Devil's
Disciple?"
Warren: Who are you talking

Controversial Currents
This And That
by Faye O'Neal
The Associated Collegiate Press rec
conducted a poll among editors of college :
all over the country to get an answer
uestion, "What do you think your respo:
ties are, as editor of your school paper?"
answers were varied but usually ran along
same line of thought and decision. Most
agreed that college newspapers could not
classified with metropolitan or commercial
pers. They seemed to feel that the job of
lege newspaper was that of an organ t
school. Several editors said that they would
print news that would be detrimental t
reputation of the school.
That brought on the next question, "Do
find yourself censored by faculty or admi
trative advisors?" Not one out of forty lead
college news sheets in the country said that
had to obtain permission from the powers
be before printing their papers. SVenty
of them admitted having been called on the
pet for "radical editorials The ACP is plani
to conduct another poll, in a further invest
tion of freedom of the press in American
leges.
On Friday night's telecast of the Duke-
Carolina game. Charles Kuralt, editor of
University of North Carolina's "Daily Tar Ik'
appeared between halves in an interview. Kr.
said that he did not consider the "Tar Heel" a-
representative of the student's opinions;
added that it could not be. This may sound a bit
harsh to the ears of our more cynical read
but we agree with Kuralt; when the student
body grows as big as that of the University
North Carolina and that of East Carolina Col-
lege, it is only in theory that the school news
paper can be a voice of the students. We do try,
but as Kuralt did. we also believe in admitt
that there is hardly a fifty-fifty chance that we
will please the students or represent the majority
of them in our policies. The editorial board of
our paper does contend, however, that we print
verifiable truths in our news stories and editor-
ials and that we stand up for the rights of the
students when we feel they need our support.

would you be interested in a series of lectures on

three lectures on the theory of Communism, Com-
munism in the United States, and International

IN THE DARK about which cigarette to
smoke? Take a hint from the Droodle
above, titled: Two searchlight crews, one
asleep, one enjoying better-tasting
Luckies. Your search is over when you
light up a Lucky. You'll find out why col-
lege smokers prefer Luckies to all other
brands, as shown by the latest, greatest
college survey. Once again, the No. 1
reason: Luckies taste better. They taste
better, first of all, because Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is
toasted to taste better. "Its Toasted?'?
the famous Lucky Strike process?tones
up Luckies light, good-tasting tobacco
to make it taste even better . . . cleaner,
fresher, smoother. So, enjoy the better-
tasting cigarette . . . lucky Strike.
