Congratulations, Buc
Looking through the pages of the new Buc-
caneer, this writer felt a mixture of emotions,
remembering the good times, noting the old faces
that were gone and those of the seniors who
would sooii be gone. It is really a memory book,
capturing those events which can never be re-
lived, but will come to mind for many years
to come.
Speaking of the book as a whole, the editor
and staff are to be congratulated for their fine
job and distributing as soon as they did. How-
ever, words of praise can not begin to be as pleas-
ing as the realization that the yearbook will live
on as a permanent memorial to those who were
a part of the complex process of publishing it.
The long lines of students who waited in the
auditorium attested to the fact that the Bucca-
neer is a cherished item on this campus. Every-
one likes to see his friends' picture and even his
own, modest soul or not. After the newness is
worn off, the annual will become a valuable
student directory, a way to place the name with
the face.
Students noted the "new look with the ac-
tivities first, and the well-chosen dedication to
Dr. Poindexter, and have been commenting fav-
orably. No book is perfect, however, and the
incoming staff faces the challenge of attempting
to make next year's annual bigger and better
for our growing college.
Only with interested workers offering to put
forth some effort will the Buccaneer be able to
go forward. Now is the time for those students
who are planning next year's courses and extra-
curricular activities to consider joining this pub-
lication staff. There is always a job that needs
doing and someone has to do it. Why not let
that someone be you??JFR
Controversial Currents
Will Ike's Popularity Last?

Just An Idiotic
Disturbance A
Look At The'Buc'
T'S QUITE INTERESTING to
note that those students charged as
fading troublemakers in last week's
atttmpted "pawty raid" were freah-
men. I hope the News and Observer
and The Daily Reflector readers are
aware of that fact.
Maybe next year's Student Govern-
ment Association election could be
held on some nice, warm spring night.
Around ten-thirty, just wiheti things
oegin settling down around the cam-
pus, elections committee chairman
Wiley Teal could streak down the
lra!ls of Urn stead and Slay yelling,
"We're going after the lingerie in
Ragsdale
No. 2: Pros and Ons On Social Frats
Will They Prove Beneficial?
MEANWHILE, other committee
members could set up the polls in
Wright Circle, intercept the male
students as they came tearing
through to iRagsdale, and induce them
to help elect those people to decide
the fate of their quarterly activity
fees. The returns would undoubtedly
set a record.
There would be a great disappoint-
ment among the would-be raiders, of
course, after learning there was no
raid, but tihat they were merely
tricked into doing someting construc-
tive for a change.
President Eisenhower's popularity has
shielded him as the Manchurian border did the
Chinese Reds during the Korean war. Democrats
have been reluctant to attack the President per-
sonally for fear of public reaction. Now the
Democrats have changed their campaign strat-
egy. Why? Before the Minnesota primary was
held the President had been attacked only by the
Democratic National Committee headed by Paul
M. Butler. Due to the Minnesota upset of the
Stevenson forces by Kefauver, Stevenson had
to change his campaign strategy. He began to
shake more hands and turned his attention direct-
ly to the President.
Stevenson questioned Ike's health and the
feasibility of a part-time Presidency. He linked
the President to Secretary of State Dulles in
responsibility for, as he called it, the deterior-
ation of our foreign relation. "Reluctance to face
the facts was his reply to Ike's veto of the
farm bill. Not only in Stevenson's defeat in
Minnesota do we find why the Democrats are
beginning to attack the President personally. The
farm districts have encouraged the Democrats.
Dissatisfied farmers have reflected their feelings
at the polls during the current primaries. How-
ver, it was the veto of the farm bill that broke the
long immunity of the President. Before this
capitol hill Democratic leaders had symbolized
"be kind to Ike Iftiey had not openly attacked
the President. The veto was too much! Senate
majority leader Lyndon B. Johnson made the
official Democratic response to the President's
veto. Senator Johnson attacked the President's
farm record. He documented his discourse with
many quotes and with newsreel shots from the
1952 campaign to point out inconsistencies in
the President's position. "The President ban
veto the farm bill, but he can't veto the farm
problem he asserted.
The greatest antagonizer of the President is
former President Harry S. Truman. Mr. Truman
labeled Ike as a "do-nothing President" and said
that he had compiled "one of the most amazing
records of political betrayal" in memory. As the
National election moves forward you can expect
plenty of the traditional campaigning, regard-
less of whether it is on television or not. The
Democrats will have the charges, will the Re-
publicans have the answers? Tune in next No-
vember for the answer.
i.iNTEREST IN THE SGA election,
class elections, and student govern-
ment in general has reached a low
ebb at East Carolina, as returns
of recent class elections will prove.
The progress of such activities de-
pends solely upon the initiative of
East Carolina's future upperclass-
men?the freshmen and sophomores
of today.
Yet, they waste their time creating
idiotic disturbances!
Fraternities can fill a definite place
in college life by giving men an
opportunity t? choose their intimate
friends and associates. Individuals
can gain trough contact with their
friends and fraternities, 'provide a
congenial atmosphere where members
can enjoy the companionship of their
fellows. A fraternity can be a force
which leads to a lasting friendship
and social bond; it is a democrati-
cally conducted organization, devoted
to fellowship and achievement.
A fraternity house could serve as
living quarters and tend to relieve
housing 'problems which have arisen
from inadequate dormitory space for
men students. Loyal alumni will re-
turn to visit in fraternity houses as
they would visit in a home, and thus
strengthen ftie tie between graduates
and the college.
Many distinguished persons have
belonged to fraternities while in col-
lege, including nine presidents of the
United -States. In spite of the oppo-
sition from certain educators there
are over a hundred social fraternities
and sororities in the United States
with over 1,400,000 members. I am
hoping that many East Carolina Col-
lege students will soon be able to
say with pride that they are in the
ever increasing number.

Social Fraternities?
Good Or Bad?
by Frank G. Fuller
The question posed by the title of
this short article is not an easy one
to answer for it aplies a "yes" or
"no" response. Actually, it would ap-
pear that both "yes" or "no" could
be correct. The real question tfrat
needs to be answered is, "Does the
good that comes from social fra-
ternities on a campus counterbalance
the possible harm?"
Many educators, including myself,
may appear to be opposed to social
ous to the personality of the mem-
bers of the fraternity. And wlhat
about the person not pledged? Or
the fellow who is financially unable
to joHl? Since fraternities tend to
dominate the social life of a campus,
the people not joining are left out
of most social activities, which, we
believe, is injurious to their person-
ality development.
The seco.d reason educators tend
to oppose octal fraternities is that
they are administratively hard to con-
trol. Supervision is difficult. Any
college administration has an obliga-
tion to parents to provide tJhe high-
est type of social, moral and intel-
lectual exp riences for their children.
Social fraternities make it more dif-
icut for the administration of a
colleg- to fulfill this obligation.
The two major joints of arjrument
us?.d in advocating social fraternities
are that:
L? they improve campus morale.
2. tt.ey provide a focal point for
improved campus social life.
My experience in the matter indi-
cates that rather than serving as a
cohesive force in campus life, they
may actually become divisive in their
influence. Rivalries spring up among
fraternities and more ratfher than
improving actually deteriorates. Fra-
ternities tend to stress loyalty to the
fraternity rather than loyalty to the
college. Loyally to the college means
'unproved morale.
?If' social fraternities tend to be-
come the focal point of campus life
(and th -y do!), is tf .Ls a good thing?
What about those nbo don't belong?
The campuwkie social activity pro-
gram is definitely weakened. Many
students are left out, and what's
more important, many feel 1ft out.
Eta Chapter of Sigma Phi Bpsiton,
Fraternity, I felt that s letter of
explanation about fraternities would
be highly beneficial to the student
body.
Here at High Point College the
installation of National fraternities
has meant a great deal in our social
betterment. We have national rec-
ognition, friends and associates in
colleges and universities throughout
the United States, and a sincere feel-
ing of companionship to men of the
Greek letter organizations.
College fraternities bave come far
since birth. They have taken deep
root in our higher educational sys-
tem. To be well educated a person
must be socially accepted and con-
fident and what better way is there
for a college man to express .his so-
cial desires and energy than in ?
fraternal group? Today fraternities
are considered to be a wondrous in-
strument for developing young men
for responsible leadership.
Without fraterniti? the social life
of High Point would be entirely null
and void. Fraternities have made us.

At the first of the year the parking pre

pose it will be a controversial one for next y

Social fraternities have been disci
throughout the year, but the ball has just hU
rolling here at the last. I suppose they, too,
make good discussion topics for the columns

Fraternity men, no matter what
their affiliation may be, have a bond
which brings them together and keeps
them ever close. The fellowship
which a fraternity promotes and the
ambitious idealism which gives rich
color to the background upon which
fraternity life rests, receives high
praise of college officials. The fra-
ternity fosters youth before it has
been awed by the skepticism and the
cynicism of age. .It may never inspire

I'm especially happy to see the

feel this way. Ilin the first place,
social fraternities tend to foster so-

tend to make an individual feel su-
perior to others, not because of real
achievements, but because of iden-

Who's Who Among Students At East Carolina College
Former Co-Editor Nears Graduation
IT'S HARD to realize that this is
issue No. 25?the last paper until
next September, (fit seems barely a
month since we were struggling with
issue No. 1.
' Publication work is fascinating and
nerve-racking. The year has been
iilled with deadlines, cutting classes
to meet those deadlines, daily menus
of sandwiches and cokes, and at times
the newspaper staff was forced to
ignore their social life and studies
so that the presses could roll.
Administrative officials tell us that
we shouldn't make such sacrifices,
but it's impossible to publish a college
newspaper without doing so.
DOTH JOYCE SMITH AND I are
especially indebted to Oliver Williams
and Jan Raby, who put a lot of time
and effort in this year's paper as
managing editor and assistant editor
compared to the scant salary they
receive. Without their help, the work
of otfher staff assistants, and our
friends down at Renfrew Printing
Company, the publication of this
paper would have been impossible.

to bring to memory some of the

in our college life.

Therefore, we thmk that tfot preWeni

we would like to point out some of the
following arguments for and against
social sororities.
According to a big mid-western
university, if social sororities and
fraternities are going to be organised
for the good of the school, the stu-
dent body membership in these or-
ganisations should be en hundred

otherwise organised would cause def-

Buc Trackstcrs Finish With Win Over
Hampdcn Sydney; Enters NS Tournament
The track team of East Carolina
College will again display its strength
Saturday and this time the foe -will
be other colleges from the North
State Conference. Elon, High Point,
Catawba, Appalachian, Lenoir Rhyne
and Atlantic Christian are all ex-
pected to enter the meet. Elon is
expected to be the toughest opponent
for the Bucs. In last year's North
State Meets held at High Point Col-
lege, Elon took first place honors
and East Carolina's Jim Henderson
grabbed the individual honor of the
meets by being selected as the out-
standing performer.

three second places each to pick up

time Pirate fans will be able to see
their squad in action as it is the last
regular meeting of the year. Student
support will be a big element con-

year is a virtual stepping stone to

fight for track to be recognized as
a regular college varsity competitive

Zen nee. Hampden-Sydney has also
proven itself to be stronger in the
cinder sport than Washington and
Lee University of the Southern Con-
ference. They outscored the Lexing-
ton, Virginia College last week in
Farmville. As many sports fans do
not realize, track is not even recog-
nized as a varsity sport at East
Carolina and yet the team has proven
that it is worthy of Atlantic Coast,
Southern Conference or Mason Dixie
competition. However, the college
does not have adequate facilities to
even hold a home meet.
The team has certainly shown that
it will not let the college down in

getting plenty of attention on the ECC campus for the last four
or five years. Richmond and V.P.I, are both strong Southern
Conference teams and will give the Pirates their first taste of
that brand of football. We will play stronger teams next year
and in doing so, should increase our "school spirit'
The enrollment of next year will probably hit its highest peak
Lhu far, and if the student body gets behind it. East Carolina
could develop u school spirit that would rank with such colleges
as the University of North Carolina, Duke and Wake Forest. Tn
my opinion, the "school spirit" at ECC hasn't been as good u
possible, and thert. should be steps taken by the SGA or some
organization to promote more spirit.
Some of the steps that mip-ht be taken are: (1) Teach the
school songs to incoming freshmen by a better system; (2) us?
some anima! as a team mascot; (3) furnish transportation to
away-trom-home games, by chartering a bus: (4) choose several
boys for cheerleader positions, and also develop better methods
of selecting cheerleaders. (5) more organized pep meeting-
(6) our band attending the games not too far from hom? ; (7) the
students sticking by the team whether they win. lose or tie.
Should these steps be accomplished, it could definitely help the
schrol spirit and make next year a banner one in all sport-
Alma Mater Neglected
Mny of the students at East Carolina College don't even
know the Alma Mater, much less the school's fight songs. Thu
statement is no exaggeration. There should definitely be some-
thing done to alter this situation. It seems that (tie fight songs
have lost some respect. During the past basketball season, many
ECC students remained seated when the tunes were played. Next
year there will be a large number of freshmen, and it seems that
there should be some way provided to teach them the songs early
in the year. Iast year, the songs were delivered once or twice
in ohapel.
Many schools smaller than East Carolina have a mascot, and
surely it looks as if a grwing institution such as ours would have
ont. Even our arch-rival. Atlantic Christian, has one. a bulldog.
This would be a good project for some fraternity. Ioeal merchant-
'would probably help out. Last homecoming, a student was dressed
as ? Pirate and performed different tactics. Why couldn't we have
this at all our games?
Why Not Mah Cheerleaders
It seems that it would be a good idea to have several boys as
cheerleaders. Ienoir Rhyne. Elon and ACC all have boy cheer-
leaders, and those schools were proclaimed as showing the most
school spirit in the recent North State basketball tournament.
There are several boys on campus who served as cheerleaders in
high school, and would be willing to take the position if the stu-
dent body would co-operate with them. It seems that the students
should have a say-so in the electing of cheerleaders.
Perhaps the possible coming of national fraternities would
help the school a great deal. Cheering sections would show more
life, and they could perform many duties which would aid ath-
letics.
Pep meetings in the past haven't been too successful. It seems
that the students haven't shown too much interest and taken the
part they should. Many things could be done to increase the inter-
est, such as a bonfire and a student-toand march up to the square
This should increase the merchants' support of cur teams. This
would also aid in helping students learn school songs.
In the past, the Bucs have had little support away from home.
In talking with other students. I have found that many believe
that at least one bus could be filled if chartered, and maybe more.
This could be a project of the cheerleaders, and would give tten
transportation to the games. By arrangement with the bus com-
panv, it might be arranged so that the cost wouldn't be too much.
It would give a big boost to the team.
Band Should Make Tripe
The band has done a great job for the athletic events at ECC,
and must be commended. However, it does seem that they could
make some of the out-of-town trips, at least in part. Lenoir Rhyne
had a small jazz band that added greatly to their school spirit.
I think if the student body would stick together for a change
thesi steps could he put into effect, and the school spirit at ECC
could be greatly improved. After all, we are the fourth largest
chool in the state, and it is up to the students to help make ECC

of the sorority would be concerned
with the managing and sponsoring
of dancas. Also, they would and
could possibly create more spirit in
athletic events, and the planning of
homecoming, although more stress
would be placed on inter-fraternity
or sorority events.
Another argument against sorori-
t however, is that with the es-
tablishment of such organizations
the jrirls would want sorority houses,
thu- interfering with the dorm life
here at college.
Also, for a number of years East
Carolina was referred to by many
as a party school, which is definitely
not tru?. However, the installation of
national fraternities and sororities?
even though the so-called "big
?stools" have them?would only cause
it to acquire such a name again as a
nsult of the familiar association of
the word.
Also, some students say that these
oiKanizations would furnish more en-
tertainment for the students. How-
ever, East Carolina is certainly get-
ting to be large enough to furnish
adequate entertainment for the stu-
dents so that they will not have to
have "organized" social parties.
It is definitely true that social
sororities (and fraternities) could do
a lot in the advancement of the col-
Uige. However, we are afraid that if
too much stress is placed upon the
economic and social status as re-
quirements for membership of these
social organizations very serious
problems will arise. Therefore, we
think that it is the personal duty of
every student to consider very care-
fully the problem of national social
sororities and fraternities, as the ul-
timate results wWl affect each and
every student here at East Carolina.
This is a problem in which reasons
bot' for and against these social
organizations should be carefully
considered in order to reach the best
possible answer.

the recent activities 'around the cam-

Donald Umstead Wins
First Annual Award

Donald Umstead, a senior from
Leaksville, North Carolina, was
awarded the first annual Delta Sig-
ma Pi scholarship key. The key is
to be given annually to the male
graduating senior with the highest
average in business, education.
Donald entered East Carolina in
December of 1952. He served as
senior vice-president of Deka Sigma
Pi, president of the SGA, vice-presi-
dent and treasurer of the Veterans
Club, and as a member of the Young
Democrats Club. Before entering
chool, he spent several years in the

open to all students of the Business
Education Department.
Exam Hop
The Record and Dance Committee
of the College Union Board headed
by Greenville Banks is sponsoring a
dance, the "Exam Hop on May 14,
from 7:30 to 10:00. The dance is to be
informal and music will be informal

hall will tell of the purposes of tfre
Board. Boys and girls are encouraged
to attend the dance stag or drag.
There is no admission charge. Ber-
mudas will be appropriate for the

Who's Who
Continued from page 2.
in 1953, Joyce entered East Carolina
College. Her decision to attend this
college was prompted by an address
by Dean Leo Jenkins the preceding
year at Selma's commencement ex-
ercises. His outstanding speech so
favorably impressed her that she
changed her choice of Wske Forest
to DCC.
Joyce, now a senior, at present is
doing her student teaching in the
first grade at the Wahl-Coates Train-
ing School. Concerning this she states,
"Student teaching has been most in-
teresting and it has certainly con-
vinced me that teaching is the right
field for me. To be able to help
children and watch their growth gives
me much joy and satisfaction It was
due to her busy schedule as a student
teacher that Joyce relinquished her
duties as co-editor of this paper at
the beginning of spring quarter.
To Leave ECC
In July, after the first session of
summer school, Joyce will graduate
with a B. S. degree in primary edu-
cation. "To leave "East Carolina is
to leave many friends, many happy
memories, and a wonderful school
she remarked. Co-editorship of the
East Carolinian Joyce described as
her greatest honor while in college.
The friendly environment around the
campus has been the one factor im-
pressing her moat about Eaa Caro-
lina.
Next year Joyce will hold a teach-
ing position in the Winston-Salem
City School System. She is eagerly
anticipating her future in this field.
