Instructors Discuss Experimentation
Extension Of Honor System Planned
Bv JAN RABY
Possibilities that the honor system
will be expanded on the campus and
extended to the junior class is the
report received from Dean Leo W.
Jenkins. However, the Advisory-
Council will not report on the pro-
gress being made by the system
until the end of the quarter when
the senior class now experimenting
with it will be surveyed.
Ten departments now have classes
experimenting with the honor system.
Six of the teachers who are parti-
es ating were interviewed by an
Bast Carolinian staff member this
week and asked for an opinion as to
the das? reaction, how the testing
without supervision was working
out, and similar questions.
Dr. Bessie McNiel of the Home
Economics department said, "I se-
lected a class in which I was sure
it would work. I think it is progress-
ing satisfactorily, but I don't think
it would work in all senior classes.
I am convinced that it will never
work until all the students are will-
ing to take the responsibility for
punishing the offenders. Since 1 live
in the Home Management House I
was able to talk to the girls who are
in my class beforehand about using

Dr. C. G. Risher of the Industrial
Arts department had no comment to
make at this time.
Mr. W. W. Howell, Business depart-
ment, has given one unmonitored
test in his senior class. He had no
ersonal opinion to offer, but said
that he had heard student comment
pro and con.
Basically Honest
In the Psychology department Dr.
Stritch stated that he had had exper-
ience with an honor system before
and that it did work. He does not Snitch. Students should be asked
believe that this is the way to go whether or not they want the honor
about it, but when asked if ECC was (system because it won't work if

"Yes, people ar basically honest.

than students any where else He
thought t at the critics were selling
the students short when they say
that it will not work here.

various problems. It was necessary
to have three complete sets which
were taken from entirely different
periods; a total of twenty-one sections
of scenery (flats), and thirty articles
of furniture. All the scenery had to
be re-constructed and re-canvassed,
and it was necessary to construct
much new scenery. This required

and twenty gallons of paint either

WiUiamston Friday night has been
ermed exaggerated and false by
vVilliamston's Police Chief John Roe-
buck and Student Government Asso-
ciation President Dock G. Smith.
The News and Observer of Raleigh
carried a story in last Sunday's edi-
tion, pointing out that a disturbance
in WiUiamston "waa aggravated when
an estimated 200 college students
yelling Ea.st Carolina College cheers
crashed t" e door, and police were
called when the students all but took
over a cafe a short distance from the
warehouse
Police Chief Roebuck told the East
Carolinian by phone earlier this week
he hadn't heard of any such inci-
dent until he read The News and
Observer story, didn't know how the
information reached the paper or
where it came from.
He said two members of his force,
who were stationed at the big ware-
house where the rock n' roll band
was playing, reported only a fight
between two colored men.
Roebuck continued that no member
of his force made any mention of
East Carolina students crashing a
door and explained, "No more than
I've heard about it, I'd say it was
exaggerated
Absolutely False?Smith
Student Government President
Dock G. Smith gave this account:
"I was present nd I do know that
there was no crashing of the door
by any mass group of students from
East Carolina.
"There were not even near 200
students from East Carolina at the
daiice, jinich less yAling college
cheers. There were about six or seven
students yelling cheers, but the com-
?. letely exaggerated story of an es-
timated 200 college students doing
so and crashing the door is abso-
lutely false.
"As for the cafe incident, the
crowd in the cafe was made up of
many people that attended the dance.
There was a great deal of noise made,
'ut nothing that would merit such a
statement as 'all but took over the
cafe "
Others Contacted
Other students, who attended the
dance, contacted by the East Caro-
linian gawe practically the same
?tory. Several said there were no
more than 50 students attending the
big dance and one said there were
"only 25 at the most
Just as President Smith said,
others estimated that there were five
or six boys leading in EOC cheers
during the dance, but one student
said he "heard it only once

was playing there recently. An Asso-

three other members of his band

will begin operations not later than
January 1, according to an announ-
cement by Mr. Wendell Smiley, radio
librarian and in charge of technical
operations. The erection of the 135-
foot tower atop Joyner Library was
completed this week. Minor difficul-
ties have hampered the construction
of the tower .since operations began,
but all of the technical problems are
now being cleared up. Testing and
tuning of the station's transmitter
should begin sometime this week,
said Mr. Smiley.
Progress in programming is also
making headway under the direction
of Miss Rosalind Rauleton, Chair-
man of the FJOC Radio and TV com-
mittee. The station has become af-
filiated with the National Associ-
ation of Educational Broadcasters.
A tent-tive schedule has been released
anT the programs will be conducted
by student and faculty participants
plus those furnished by the network.
Cost
The tower was purchased by the
was paid for by the college. The
tower alone cost $1000 and the total
cost of the FM station was esti-
mated by Mr. Smiley as $22,400. The
station has the power of three kilo-
watts and is expected to broadcast
over a fifty-mile radius.
Until the committee can begin op-
erations of the FM station, they will
continue their work through the com-
mercial Radio and TV stations in
Greenville and Washington.
Volunteers
The coilege station will be operated
entirely by faculty and student 'vol-
unteers. The Radio and TV Com-
mittee of East Carolina College di-

ming, planning, and policy of the
radio and TV activity connected with
the college. Members of the present
committee are: Miss Rosalind Rauls-
ton, chairman, Dr. A. D. Frank, Dr.
Kenneth Bing, Dr. John Navarre,
Mr. Wendell SHey, Dr. Martha
Pingel, and Miss Mary Greene.
Advisory Council Discusses
TetMching With Television
The acquisition of new-type iden-
tification cards for students and ex-
perimentation with closed circuit
television classes here were the main
topics of discussion at last week's
meeting of the Dean's Advisory Coun-
cil.
The group decided, too, that there
was no apparent need for a dating
bureau, made plans for dorm lectures
on marriage and the family, and
went on record as disapproving the
establishment of national social fra-
ternities here.
Men's Judiciary Chairman Eddie
Dennis proposed the adoption of an
identification card which would in-
clude a picture of the student, pro-
hibiting its being transferable among
others.
Dennis pointed out that the change
would bring about an increase in cost,
but said that in the long run money
would be saved by admission prices.
Dr. Jenkins explained to the group
that100,000 has been allocated in
order that East Carolina could ex-
periment with closed circuit tele-
vision in classrooms next year.
"There is a great future in it and
we are going to be the guinea pigs
ht said. The Dean pointed out fur-
ther that one teacher will conduct
a class on a specific phase of the
course while still others will teach
in other areas.
The lecture will be televised from
the library studios and will be sees
on sets to be installed in eight dif-
ferent classrooms. Microphones will
be installed which will pijvide for
a two-way conference in case stu-
dents wish to ask questions.
YWCA President Neel Dupree
was asked to investigate the possi-
bility of marriage and the family
lectures in various dorms.

Another Flowerpot
Walter Winchell defines the newspaper-
man as "the fellow who sits at a window and
watches millions of people walk by in the
street below In the moving mass "he sees
friends, enemies, good men and bad. It is his
privilege, as a journalist, to drop a flower or
a flowerpot on each
The News and Observer dropped another
flowerpot en East Carolina College last Sun-
day. It isn't the first time the huge Daniels
machine from Raleigh ha hit East Carolina
e blow on the head. This is only the latest of
many flowerpots "The Old Reliable" has re-
leased on this thriving institution during the
past few years.
The ludicrous piece which appeared in
the Sunday News and Observer falsely implies
that ECC students composed "an estimated
200 collect- students" who created a disturb-
ance at the Fats Domino dance in Williamston
Friday night, crashed a warehouse door, and
"all but took over a cafe a short distance from
the warehouse
Mr. Wincheil, who is one of the most
widely read journalists in the world today,
considers news to be "something you haven't
heard before
Undoubtedly that is why the respected
Raleigh paper carried the story in Sunday's
edition. WilHamston's Police Chief John Roe-
buck told the East Carolinian he hadn't heard
of anv such incident until he read it in "The
Old Reliable Officers, who were stationed
at the big rock and roll affair, didn't report
any such incident. If 200 students crash the
door of any budding ad practically take over
a cafe, you can bet your bottom dollar the
police force in that immediate locale is going
to hear about it and do something about it.
SGA President Dock Smith and several
other prominent students, who were present
at the dance, assured us that East Carolina
students were not involved in such an incident
and called the News and Observer story a
complete exaggeration.
The press is free, but only to the extent
that reporters can prove everything they write
with true facts. From where we sit, it looks
as if some News and Observer correspondent
had himself quite a ball playing reporter, and
"The Old Reliable" must have been more than
happy to print it on page four without in-
vestigating the true facts.
East Carolina's head is growing sore, but
it continues to thrive in spite of the Daniels
machine and its flowerpots. It's time for "The
Ofd Reliable" to restrict all of its flowerpot
throwing to Thomas Pearsall and Percy
Flowers.
Suez Crisis
What is wrong in the Middle East? At the
present, this is a question that concerns col-
lege students more than who will win the
game Saturday or will I pass the English Lit?
College men are worrying over the possi-
bility that the United States might become
engaged in tne conflict. Already the slogan is,
"I'll see you at the canal
Girls are worried over the possibility that
Johnny might go marching to war, and they
mightrbe left at a girl's school with only fond
memories of their fiance, husband or boy
friend.
Israel and the Anglo-French forces have
been labeled as the aggressors by the United
Nation- Many believe, however, that both df
these forces are justified in their actions.
Since their establishment as a free state
in 1947. the people of Israel have been contin-
ually bombarded by stronger Middle Eastern
powers. Since 1954, Israel has been faced with
the threat and actual confiscation of her ships
in the Suez Canal?a problem that has faced
the free world for only a fewr months.
The threat of continued confiscation, the
fear that America's refusal to grant defensive
arms would be extended by the re-election of
Eisenhower, and the reinstallment of Dulles
as American Secretary of State, and the help
of Anglo-French forces, who were also being
discriminated in the Canal, led these people
to war against Egypt.
The Anglo-French forces have also been
labeled as an aggressor, but they have justi-
fied their actions on the discrimination in the
Suez and by the seizure of the canal by Nasser.
In short, these countries, who have invested
money and equipment in the Suez area and
depend upon Middle Eastern oil, became tired
of Nasser's love affairs with the Soviets.
Whether we will complete the work that
we began in 1947 of establishing a free Is-
raeli state and back up our long-time allies
remains to be seen.
As a newspaper published by young stu-
dents, the East Carolinian thinks that at
least our mutual interest with the Anglo-
French forces should be considered, and make
sure that our bonds under the NATO alliance
are not flushed away in the United Nations
by Russia's veto power.

Young Hungarians
Trying To Demolish
Russian Monuments
YOUNG HUNGARIANS were try-
ing desperately to demolish all of
th? monuments erected by Russian
leaders when they took over Hun-
gary during World War II.
There was one symbolizing victory.
A statue of Joe Stalin was standing
proudly a little further down the
street. A giant replica of a new-
type Russian plane rested atop
another.
T ey tied ropes around Stalin and
finally dislodged him from his perch.
The plane was brought down, too,
and one young revolter gave it a
good working over with an axe. He
seemed to be getting the satisfaction
of destroying the whole Red Air
Force. Those that couldn't be brought
down were left to the mercy of
machine gun fire.
THE TV NEWSREEL pictured
battered Hungary and showed dead
lying along the streets. Last week,
many schools over the country ob-
served a few minutes of silent prayer
for those Hungarian students who
died fighting for their freedom. I'm
eorry I didn't know about it. But
one can pray at any time.
YOU'RE FAMILIAR with this

pounds. How she ever found time to
eat enough to reach that weight and
still chatter constantly is a mystery
to me.
I was having hunch in a drugstore.
This middle-aged lady had just fin-
ished eating and wag talking poli-
tics with a party near my table.
"Stevenson won't get my vote

manage his own family can't run the
United States. Stevenson won't get
my vote She maintained this pace
and tone for approximately 20 min-
uter.
I wanted to comment but decided
: gainst it. If Adlai Stevenson's wife
had any characteristics similar to the
lady running him into the ground,
who blames him for leaving her?
This older generation!
MAYBE YOU are familiar with
a column by Nell Battle Lewis which
ars each Sunday in the Raleigh
N'ewri and Observer.
I read her comments occasionally.
She writes an interesting movie
review but spends most of her time
fighting the Civil War and the Su-
preme Court.
She wrote last Sunday: "The Pres-
idential election on Tuesday, I regret
to say. u of only academic interest
to n.e. I'm not going to vote for either
candidate, since, in good conscience,
I can't. From dog-catcher to Presi-
dent of the United States, no can-
didate who favors integration is go-
ing to get my vote . . "
Whew! This older generation!
A SOUTH AFRICAN student now
attending school at the University of
Oklahoma was interviewed over NBC's
weekend radio program "Monitor
The interviewer questioned him
concerning his impression of the
school's fraternity system. I was sur-
prised to hear the subject mentioned,
Keing under the supposition that only
East Carolina was concerned with
such organizations at this time.
The student said they reminded him
o the primitive organizations of hia
own country and explained that they
seemed to be trying to group men
together.
Then they turned to music. He
assured the newsman that American
jazz is popular in South Africa and
that Elvis Presley has a large fol-
lowing.
SPEAKING OF THE PELVIS, he

Shaggy Holdouts Face Quick Expulsion
Last week, a brief news .story was
released by the Associated Press,
which told of a high school principal
in iRomeo, Michigan, who threat-
ened 52 male students with expulsion
because of their Elvk Presley hair-
cuts, levis and genera! unkempt ap-
ptarances.
Little or nothing has been heard
in a way of criticism from the news-
papers (or any other medium) about
the principal's action. This, to me,
is a bad indication in a land that
k .supposed to be bubbling over with
freedom and democracy. It is a sign
that either the American people are
becoming too 1 zy and self-satisfied
or else that they are simply afraid
to pak out against injustice. Or
perhaps they juist don't care.
Let's analyze the facts in that
brief little story and see just what
it implies. The AP story went in
part. as follows: "Fifty-two male
Students who lately sported the long
sideburns and ducktail haircut af-
fected by the rock 'n' roll singer
agreed to a pear in class today with
trimmed hair and clean shaven faces.
, "They hai no choice. Any shaggy
holdouts face quick expulsion
The Romeo school was no private
institution. It was pointed out in
the story that it was a public com-
munity high school. Then, are we
to assume that public citizens are
no longer allowed to use their own
descretion in choosing clothes, styles
of dress and appearance? Is this to
say that, in Modern America, peo-
le are subject to be ordered how to
cut their hair, how high to wear
t' eir pants, how o'ter, they shoukl
shave, how they should brush their
teeth, walk, talk and breathe? It
would seem .so.
Yet, no one has spoken out against
the methods of the dictator-like school
superintendent J. c. Filppuia. who
even had the gal! to say that the
students should be ashamtfd of them-
selves as males, for wearing what he
ttrmed "long hair No on has made
a move to correct this man who
threatened students wit expulsion
because several teachers felt that
the haircuts fostered a "defiant at-
titude
If the American people .sanction
the selfish, narrow-minded actions of
such men as Pi pula, allow uncon-
tional methods to be used on
high school tevels, how long will it
be before the infection spreads to
higher places?
Speaking Of
American Heritage And The College Man
By PURVIS BOYETTE
Happy's is a small restaurant-pool
room located jut off Fifth Street.
It's a good restaurant . . . grade "A"
sanitary rating, shellacked pine tables,
and plenty of catsup. The pool tables
aren't as fine and up-to-date as you'd
like for them to be but of course,
you must remember that it's only
ten cents a game. And Happy's fried
chicken?it just doesn't come any
better. There's beer too for those
who like their meals German style
although I'm dubious about who
started beer and meal together first,
the Germans or Americans. J've
heard about country style mashed
(not creamed) potatoes. Without a
doubt, these must be the kind Happy
serves. Slaw? He really does dish
out real chicken slaw. Now there is
a difference (a big difference) be-
tween chicken slaw, fish slaw, oyster
slaw (especially oyster slaw) and
barbecue slaw. Happy knows that
difference.
Women don't usually go to Happy's
although some do. I'm not quite sure
why . . .
And Happy, the last remained tran-
sitory element between the bar room
tender of yesteryear and the con-
noisseur of today, is a little man,
slightly built and he is just six feet,
a manish voice, and he knows his
stuff?people. Happy hag it fixed so
that when you open the door and
take one step in you're automatically
standing ki front of the serving bar
or counter if you prefer. Right off
the bat he'll say, "Whatll you have?"
Who started it first, the Pabst people
or Happy, no one will ever know but
everybody has just about the same

A young man entered the foyer. He
stopped and began chatting with the
popcorn hostess. Their conversation
appeared nonsensical. Across the
foyer, leaning against one of the
supporting columns, stood another
young man, alone and very different.
The most obvious difference was
the way in which each was dressed.
The young man talking with the
girl was recieely attired according
to the latest fashions . . . Ivy League
from head to toe in his heavy tweed
coat, silk striped tie, and English
tb shirt. The other was dressed in
complete disregard for fashion. His
pants were rumpled and instead of
a coat and tie he wore only a short
sleaved shirt which looked unironed.
Hio general appearance was that of
unkemptness. The first man, by his
very carriage, indicated a full know-
ledge of the social graces. The second
man exhibited no such knowledge,
only an obtusenes which astounds
in this day of opportunity. Ending
his chit-chat, the well-dressed young
man walked over to another group
and together they went into the
movie. He was a college man.
From the first moment th? young
man so lacking in savior flaire saw
the college student, he never took
his eyes from him. And those eyes
expressed such dejection, such com-
plete disrespect for his own abilities,
such utter hatred of the social world
to which he did not belong and such
exhausting admiration for those who
had the opportunities that he would
never have that one knew he would
sonn cry. A friend joined him shortly
and they left unsmilingly.
That scene reminded me in pro-
foundest term of how very much

roduct of his environment and eco-
nomic r,?nk which will dictate to a
large extent the measure of opportu-
nities he will enjoy. Some overcome
their parentage; most do not. A
college students, we should be ever
grateful and loyal to our parents who
gave us such a wealth of opportuni-
ties and advantages. To those who
owe no such devotion, beN especially
proud of your self-accomplishments.
As a member of this select college
community, we are a group out-
standing. The American Heritage is
ours?be proud, sincere and ever
humble.

To Go Or Not To Go
By JAS RABY
It's All in How you Look At It . . .
This columnist started to write an
editorial on the "suitcase college" probh
at ECC, but after having talked with several
ptople, who have -been to other colleges,
on the subject, we pause to reconsider. Most
of the critics on this issue do not stop tc
consider some of the unique factors involved.
A point to be reckoned with is that
majority of students live near the colleg-
It is easy, also, to find a ride to your he:
tovsn with the large number of cars on eai
pus. The lack of Saturday classes tak-
away a factor that might prohibit so many
people from going home. Several of I
students admit that going home every wt
end has become a habit and their parents
are accustomed to having them come?
Mother can do the washing and Jr. can
some free meals.
Whether we admit it or not, we ca
to the "suitcase college" theme when every
activity is geared to the idea that nothing
muse be scheduled on the week-end (with
the exception of a few). One of the largi
student membership organizations is the
BSU, which meets on Monday nights; like-
wise the Methodist and the Presbyterian
groups. Also from the SGA on down to the
English club, every extracurricular activity
is slated for a school night, taking away time
that should be spent preparing for the n
day's classwork.
In view of the above, it is ad mi
that there are some bad points, but the
decision must be made as which outweighs
the other, and should there be something
done about it?
A few complaints
It seems that soot from the chimne:
the area of the cafeteria is drifting down
like snow and the cleaning bill of those stu-
dents who walk by that area has been going
up. The girls would much rather continue
wearing those pullover sweaters, but they
just can't see having that dirty soot fly on
them. Mr. Julian, or whoever is concerned,
how about checking your soot filter on the

By MIKE KATSIAS
In a matter of a few abort weeks,
East Carolina's aquatic swimmers
will begin their third season against
an outstanding caliber of opponents
under the leadership of Coach Ray
Martinez.
During their initial season three
years ago, the Pirate swimmers met
a rigid schedule which brought only
a lone victory for all their efforts.
The following season, last year, was
i different story, one of "Cinderella"
quality. Loaded with veterans and
outstanding newcomers, the mermen
turned in a "surprising record of nine
wins and four losses.
Many larger schools were startled
by this sharp turn of events for Mar-
tinez's team?no longer would East
Carolina be considered a soft touch.
This realization has already had its
?fleet. Clemon and the Citadel, two
powers whom the Pirates handed
le eat, 1: t year, have decided a-
gainst meeting the .supposed soft
-ouch in 1956-57.
This season, the Pirate mermen
will meet such teams as the Uni-
versity of North Carolina, N. C. State,
V. M. I D-vidson, William & Mary,
Washington & Lee, Wake Forest, and
the Duke junior varsity. Many of
the.se meets will be held in Memorial
Pool, here at the college, for the
benefit of Pirate supporters. Coach
Martinez stated that V. P. I. and
Georgia Tech have also been contacted
for meets, but nothing definite has
been reached.
When the University of North Car-
olina journeys here on December 1.
n display will be the performers
who have made tfhe Tar Heels co-
?champdons of the Atlantic Coast
Conference and the tentih ranked
college power in the nation. This
opening meet will serve notice to
other Pirate opponents of what lies
ahead of them.
Another old rival will be N. C.
State. The Raleigh mermen possess
the fifth ranked team in the nation
and, along with Carolina, share the
ACC championship. Leading the
Wolf pack, when they invade Eatft
Carolina, is All-Ameiican Dick Fad-
gen. This talented junior captured the
200-yd. Butterfly and the 200-yd.
Breaststroke events at the National
Collegiate Championships.
V. M. L's Keydets will play host
to a band of visiting Pirates on
January 11. For the past three years,
the Keydets have dominated the
Southern Conference with a firm
hand. The Pirates will he trying to
avenge last years defeat suffered
at home before a capacity throng.
The men of Coach Martinez have
a large undertaking ahead of them,
ont- which will require the same
winning determination they displayed
last year. That determination and
fine support accomplished wonders
as the record shows. Though lacking
last year'h depth, the Pir.tes will
undoubtedly bring forth a team to
be reckoned with. Under the Martinez
system, a team effort which work
well brings ultimate victory. The
veterans will have to hold their own
and gain sup;ort from a promising
rop of newcomers during the ap-
proaching schedule.

Seeing Double? Look Again,
ECC Boasts Six Sets Of Twins
Speaks At YDC Meeting
By Kathryn Johnson
"What's that? Am I seeing dou-
ble?" The student quickly looks a-
gam. No, hLs eyes are not playing
tricks on him. He has only passed
one of Est Carolina's six sets of
twins.
Jean and Jane Duke, idtenfcijeal
twins from Washington, reveal that
being a twin certainly has its good
points. They not only switch dates
often, but sometimes get crushes
on the same boy. Once, when Jean
was younger she waved at a mirror
thinking it was Jane. When the i-
mage waved back Jean ran toward it,
but received no greeting except a
knot on the head as she bumped
into the mirror.
The only obvious difference in the
girls is the streak of gray hair Jean
has. The girls share the same inter-
ests and their grades are generally
the same. They were presented to-
gether at this year's Debutante
Ball. In the future they hope o have
a double wedding. Since twins runs
in their family every generation, one
of them is likely to receive a double
bundle of joy one day.
Minshew Twins
Another set of identical twins are
Arimenta and Juanita Minshew from
Eureka. Although they are indenti-
cal their dates usually do not have
trouble telling thjcAn apart. M?st
people just get their names mixed-up.
They have always dressed alike and
their grades seem to be the same in
school. The girls have never been
separated and all of their classes are
together. They seldom get crushes
on the same boys although their
other interests are usually the same.
"We've always strived to be in-
dividuals instead of one of a pair
etteville. They even wear their hair
differently and dress differently so
that each can be herself. They are the
only set of twins on campus who
do not room together. Unlike most
identical twins the girls do not make
similiar grades. Jacqueline is in-
terested in dramatics and her looka-
like Geraldine is active in the Baptist
Student Union.
Cooke Twins
On the other hand Molly and Mar-
cella Cooke, identical twins from
Auiander, like being part of a pair.
They dress alike and can be told
a; art only by the mole on Marcella's
neck. Their interest are the same in
everyt ing, their grades are the same,
nd they usually double-date. Often
the boys wonder which girl they are
upposed to be dating.
Janice and Joyce Pierce are twins
rom Rocky Mount who are not
identical. They share very few simi-
larities or interests. Joyce declared,
"We're just like ordinary sisters
except we were born at the same
time Twins run in the Pierce fami-
ly. Although they are not identical
they find that teachers and friends
get them mixed-up.
McRay Twins
Mary and Sarah McRay from
Rowland are the first twins
to appear in their family. They
are maternal twins, but they
are much closer than mere
sisters. They have few differences
and their grades are usually the
same. For the last few summers they
have been separated, but both agree
they are lost without each other.
While Mary has an outstanding re-
cord on the basketball court, Sarah
excells in music. The poor referees

ly known authority or music edu-
cation will visit East Carolina Col-
lege Monday and Tuesday, November
12-13, and will conduct a series of
meetings planned to benefit teach-
ers and students of music, parents,
and others who are interested in
instruction in music.
Dr. Pitts' appearances at East
Carolina will be sponsored by the
Music Education Club, an organiza-
tion of students of music. Barbara
Harris of Beaufort, president of the
club; Dr. Kenneth N. Cuthbert, di-
rector of the department of music;
and committees of students have pre-
pared the program for the two-day
series of events.
"Music for Pre-School Children
and Children in the Primary Grades"
will be the topic of the opening ses-
sion Monday morning at 9:30. That
afternoon Dr. Pitts will discuss "Mu-
sic for Grammar Grade and Junior
High School Pupils" at 1:30. The
night meeting at 7:30 will be devoted
to consideration of "Music in General

place in the Austin auditorium.

Redisco Men Discuss
Social Fraternities
At Delta Sigma Meet
At their last supper meeting the
Delta Sigma Pi had as their guests
two men from the Redisco branch
here in Greenville. Mr. D. R. Callo-
way, branch manager of Redisco,
introduced Mr. Alton Johnson, who
was the main speaker of the evening.
Mr. Johnston is a graduate of East
Carolina College. At the present time
he is vice president of the South-
eastern Region of Redisco.
Mr. Johnston talked on many dif-
ferent subjects, one of interest to
the student body at the present time
being social fraternities. On this
subject he said, "If your fraternity
has .an object, creates fellowship,
and can get together and learn to ex-
press themselves ae a group, it can be
a very valuable organization. How-
ever, if they develop false values
and loss sight of objectives, they will
become worthless and detrimental to
the college
When asked if he thought college
training is necessary, Mr. Johnston
replied, "No, but it is a terrific
asset. If a person has a natural abili-
ty to use his common sense and is
able to express himself orally and
in writing, he can succeed. But col-
lege gives him a natural store of
knowledge to draw on
The closing event of the series
will be held Tuesday morning at 9:30
in the Austin auditorium. At this
time Dr. Pitte will talk on "Music
in the Secondary School
Teachers and others who are in-
terested, Dr. Cuthbert states, may
obtain tickets to all program meet-
ings for the sum of $1. Those at-
tending the dinner will pay for the
meal at the college dining hall.
Dr. Pitts recently retired as a
faculty member of Columbia Uni-
versity in New York City, where
she served for many years as pro-
fessor of music education. She is
past president of the Music Educa-
tors National Conference and is well
known as the author of texts and
articles on music education and as
co-editor of the RCA Record Library
for Children.
The wasps were making great sport
of it all. Around the classroom walls,
the ceilings, the window shades, the
lights they droningly swarmed. Oc-
casionally they dived by some pretty
girl's nose, evidently delighting in
seeing the weaker sex wiggle and
squirm in their seats.
They were causing such a dis-
traction that faculty members in
Austin, Wright, and Flanagan called
the Orkin Man at the college Main-
tenance building. He came over with
his little DDT gun and sprayed a-
round.
(Right now the DDT supply has
given out. They're awaiting the ar-
rival of their replenishment order.
Meanwfhile the wasps are continuing
to play havoc.
According to Dr. Knight of the
college Botany Department, here'
what is attracting them to our fair
lecture rooms. Contrary to the -popular
belief that they are exhibiting a
noble desire for intellectual edu-
cation, in essence they are only re-
sponding to Nature'e calling of
reproduction of one's kind.
This is the time of year in which
wasps begin preparation for the
coming winter by building nests in
which to lay their eggs and hatch
their young. Unlike bees which pro-
duce a wax from their own bodies
for nest building, wasps must use
wood for the making of their cone-
shaped homes.
Relatively high temiperaturea this
fall have kept the paper wasps alive
longer than usual. They have been
drawn to fc? warmth of the buildings,
especially during nocturnal hours.
But we are fast wearying of their
ominous presence. The wasps must go!
