Stop Light Proposal Waiting
For Greenville City Budget
According to information released
recently from the office of the
Greenville City Manager, action has
again been deferred on the proposed
installation of a traffic light at the
in ersection of Fifth Street and
Beckwith Gate by the Administration
Building here.
The item, tabled at the City Coun-
cil meeting in November, was not
discussed ' at the last two monthly
meetings arid will not be brought
before the group again until a bud-
g 't for the'new fiscal period has been
prepared. This new fiscal period will
begin July 1, 1956.
The traffic light proposal was in-
troduced to the council in October
by the Stop Light Securement Com-
mittee which was appointed by the
Student Government Association. At
that time, however, it vva referred
to the State Highway Commission,
since Fifth Street i.s a state high-
way. The Highway Commission ap-
proved the request with one recom-
mendation?namely, that the signal
should operate only at busy hours.
Survey Made
Before sending the request to Ra-
ligh, the City Council placed a count-
er on Fifth Street and the main en-
trance to tabulate the number of
cars that passed along the street
and through the entrance.
During an eight-hour period?10
sum. to 6 p.m.?2400 cars passed
down the street, and 1690 of them
ei her left or entered the college
entrance. The council also seated that
before an actuated light, such as the
one desiied by the committee, should
be Installed, that there should be an
average of four cars per minute?
one below the average shown by the
eight hour tabulation.
Waiting For City Approval
Now that the traffic signal has
been approved by the Sta e Highway
Commission, the final action rests
with the Greenville Council. How-
ever, when the item was last dis-
cussed by this council, the City
Manager did not seem very enthusi-
astic about the matter.

At Second Meeting
Committee Prepares Recommendation
Miss Ray Linthieum . . . chosen recently as sponsor of the annual
Military Ball which will be held March 3. (J. D. Henry photo)
An initial recommendation stating,
"It is the consensus of the commit-
tee that cuts equal to the number of
hours the class meets per week be
permitted; and the number of cuts!
ermit ed in tve lab periods shall be
left to the discretion of each depart-
ment" was prepared last week at the
- cond nice ing of the committee ap-
pointed to btudy and evaluate the
cut system now in effect here.
.According to the committee mem-
b rs, however, t. is recommendation
will be filed and will not be presented
to the Policies Committee until a
thorough study is made of the pres-
ent system. Numerous proposals will
be drawn for consideration during
his study, the committee pointed out.
Discuss Weaknesses
Committee members present at the
second meeting continued discussing
wat they considered as weak points
in the present system, studied sys-
tems used in other colleges, and
heard Dr. Marshall read suggestions
which were made by several upper-
classmen when asked to comment on
the cut system.
Student Government Association
President Donald Umstead and Wo-
men's Judiciary Chairman Ann
Bowles, who are representing the stu-
dent body on the committee, were
absent. Dr. Marshall pointed out that
according to reports that he had re-
ceived, a great number of the stu-
d nts questioned considered the mat-
ter of obtaining excused absences far
too liberal. Others felt .hat the pres-
n t system was functioning satis-
factorily.
Something Weak - - - Marshall
"Ther. is something weak in the
system that doesn't call to the atten-
tion of he students that they are
le initely hurting themselves Dr.
Marshal emphasised to the group be-
fore the initial recommendation was
drawn. The commit ee agreed with
Dr. Marshall t. at "the whole cut sys-
tem is a protective measure to pro-
vide protec ion to the student himself
and for his benefit
Student Committee
Dean Tucker introduced the idea of
baring President Umstead appoint a
student commit'ee to study cut sys-
tem? of other schools, believing tha;
they would find our system "very
liberal The proposal was discarded,
howt v- r, before the initial recommen-
dation was drawn.
No specific da'e has been set for
te third meeting of the committee.

Let's Ever Keep In Mind
What The Galilean Said
Relipious Emphasis Week is set aside once a year with the
hope that Christ will be brought closer and made more meaning-
ful in the lives of those on our campus. This year, with the theme
"Revolution and Reconciliation" our distinguished vistors have
a marvelous sub'xt . ith which to challenge the thinking of those
who seek a Christian way of life.
We need a citizenry possessed of faith in God and with
such love for humanity that the gospel of peace and brotherhood
will motivate them to exemplify the essential principles of the
Golden Rule throughout their lives.
As we go about our daily tasks, let's ever keep in mind
what the Galilean said: "And I, if I be lifted up, will draw all
men unto me

Undei this plan those courses carrying tive

If the matter of laboratory cuts is to be left

undoubtedly continue to rule laboratory absences
the same as cuts in the regular class period.
Therefore, those students enrolled in five hour
courses which require four hours of lab work
each week will be attending nine hours of class-
work, but will receive only five excused absences.
This initial recommendation doesn't seem
quite fair in view of the fact that other classes
will be permitted excused absences equal to the
number of hours the class meets.

Food vs. Students
Last week brought forth many
events on the campus of East Caro-
Ifcia. However, the most talked about
topic seems to have been (and still
is) t e food (if it can be classified
as such) in the cafeteria. It seems,
as the infirmary may verify, that
there were a number of students who
became ill as a result of eating this

it seems that many students have

not strong enough to withstand such

gest only a few incidents that have

for us to become a well-rounded indi-

days have only a lunch until five

who are almost afraid to eat there
because of the unknown results which
eating there might bring. Perhaps
bve cafeteria management would do
well to try to improve some of these
seemingly hideous faults?and start
serving food which each and every
student can enjoy, not only on Sun-
days but throughout the week as well,
unafraid of the results which eating
there might bring.
Books vs. Education
An editorial which appeared in the
East Carolinian last week caused a
number of comments ? especially
is their ONE HOUR to become
well-rounded individual? It seems
that some of the professors do not
realize that East Carolina is NOT
on the semester system; that we do
not have one whole day between class-
es in which to prepare our assign-
ments. (However, here it seems tnat
the whole weekend is consumed In
catching up assignments for the past
week.)
It is true that our purpose in com-
ing to college was to obtain an edu-
cation and to make the most of our
precious hours here. However, pro-
fessor, does an education begin and'
end only in books?
The structure is of rough stone with oi
iron barred windows in true medieval fashi
The tower and a portion of the building are c
ered with greenish-brown ivy. One is immedli
impressed with the originality of the char;
who prompted the castle's erection.
Legend has it that a student in the
history of the University desired membership
one of the campus social fraternities. Such
denied him and being fabulously wealthy h?
ated his own frat?the Order of the Gimglv
The castle was built expressly for the group
from the outset was a secret organization. M
bers were "tapped" in and whenever a sei
was rendered the school it was done through
intermediator.
Many frightful incidents are connected wr-
its past. One member's sweetheait supposedly
rejected his proposal. Distraught with grrief, he
carried her to the castle's tower, erected a no
and left her swinging. Another young lady's
tionship with a Ginmghoul resulted in the
of her head. So goes the gist of three log?
concerning the life and members at Gimghoul
Castle. It is my understanding that the Or
the Gimghouls still exists.
Creative talent can often be found among
students here at East Carolina. One individual
who has a literary bend is Franklin Thomas from
Carthage. The recent weather inspired Mr. Thom-
as to compose the following poem.
rain
into my soul, in the watches of the night,
comes your joyful tranquality, which reaches
the depths of my self, and then passes
on to come again another day.
come rain, bring your sorrow.
forever rain, ever on the morrow.
your vivid fragrance, sweet as earth itself
does instill in me, the life in earth again.

Nothing
without wings
climbs like a
'56 Chevrolet!
Ever level off a mountain with
your foot? Nothing to it. Just point
this new '56 Chevy uphill and ease
down on the gas.
Up you go with a quiet (hy-
draulic-hushed valve lifters now in
all engines?V8 or 6) rush of power.
This is the car, you know, that
broke the Pikes Peak record. The
car that conquered towering grades
and vicious switchback turns to
prove its superior performance,
handling ease and cornering ability.
These are built-in qualities that
mean more driving pleasure and
safety for you. Chevrolet also offers
such safety features as seat belts,
with or without shoulder harness,
and instrument panel padding as
extra-cost options.
There are 19 new Chevrolets?
all with Body by Fisher. Drop in
and drive one.
