The Music Department announces
the formation of the Varsity Band
beginning Winter Quarter. The Var-
sity Band will be open to all instru-
mentalists enrolled at East Carolina
and will be held in Music Hall Room
110 on Tuesday afternoons from 4-
5:30 o'clock. All instrumentalists, re-
gardless of major curriculum, are
urged to join.
The main purpose of the Varsity
Band is primarily recreational, to
enable instrumentalists who were
members of a high school band to
continue to play in a musical organi-
zation during their college career, it
!s hoped that the nucleus of the bend
will be comprised of people who are
not majoring in the field of music,
but who are seeking an avocations!
outlet rather than vocational train-
ing.
"Many people have already been
contacted but unfortunately it ia im-
possible for the musi department to
be able to contact every individual
who has such a background. Many
are unknown and time does not per-
mit personal contact with everyone
who may play an instrument stated
director Mr. Herbert Carter.
Dr. Carter felt that the Varsity
Band will be of a great benefit to
the college as well a the individual
student. All instrumentalists are
needed, particularly those who have
played clarinet or saxophone, tuba or
baritone. Regardless of the level of
advancement, he invites everyone to
.loin.
Information may be obtained
tin,nigh the Music Deportment or by
dropping a note to Mr. Herbert Car-
ter. Director of Bands, Box 71, E.C.C.
This is campus mail and no postage
is needed. One should include his
name, instrument and campus or lo-
cal address. This note will not obli-
gate ona, but merely give Mr. Carter

tion day will end a week of "crash"
camiaigning led by members of the
Student Government Association.
The campaign began yesterday
with a closed-circuit TV program
directed to the freshman orientation
itory students with the issue. A
mass student body meeting will be
held Monday night for discussion
piu and con by any students on cam-
pus. During the week there will be
on the spot campaigning by Student
Dr. Gerald W. Johnson
"The purpose of this crash cam-
I aign stated S. G. A. President
Mike Katsias, "is to familiarize all
.tudents with the need of an increase.
This year the Budget Committee was
limited in its appropriations because
of lack of proper funds. An increase
would enable this committee to better
fill the neads of the many organiza-
tions on campus. It would benefit
every student by enlarging student
facilities to serve him in a greater
capacity
Bubba Driver, Student Senator who
has backed the bill, stated in an
S. G. A. meeting, "I feel that the
increase is necessary if the campus
is to grow. Many students do not
know how their organizations obtain
their appropriations and where they
come from He went on to explain
that the activities fee covers costs
for the yearbook, the EAST CARO-
LINIAN, the REBEL, the entertain-
ment series, the Athletic Association,
and all student clubs and organiza-
tions.
President Katsias stated at the
Executive Council meeting Monday
night that if the proposed increase
was passed on November 12, it would
ossibly go into effect next fall.
Dr. Johnson, Danforth Foundation Speaker, will lecture on "Ten-
sions and Stereotypes" and "Creativity and Productivity" in the Joyner
Library Auditorium next Tuesday and NYednesday nights. This native North
Carolinian is the third Danfurth Speaker to appear on campus this year.

Carolina College, enrollment has
reached a new peak this fall.
Taking work on the campus are
3684 students, according to a report
from the office of Dr. Robert Holt,
registrar and director of admissions.
Extension courses now being taught
in 18 centers in the state have an
enrollment of 1368, a statement from
the office of Director of Public Re-
lations Ralph Brimley reveals.
Comparisons with totals for the
fall quarter of 1957 show an increase
this year in both groups of students.
The 3684 students now taking courses
taught on the campus outnumber the
total of 3416 for last fall by 269.
Enrollment in extension classes this
year tops the figure for fall 1957 by
668 students.
Among those now enrolled in
courses on the campus, 3468, or ap-
proximately 94 are North Caro-
linians. Out-of-state students number
216.
East Carolina College is training
for careers in education 2727 of the
students on the campus, Dr. Holt's
leport indicates. Among full-time stu

lenewal of their certificates. In ad-
cition, special students taking teach-
er-traning courses number 263 men

Rehearsals Begin
For 'Messiah'
Rehearsals for the annual pre-
Christmas performance of Handel's
"The Messiah" at East Carolina Col-
lege began Thursday night of last
week, under the directon of Dr. Carl
T. Hjortsvang of the department of
music. Those who wish to became
members of the chorus are asked to
get in touch with Dr. Hjortsvang.
This year's performance will pre-
sent singers from both the college
and the area in and near Greenville.
Dr. Hjortsvang has issued an invita-
tion to singers in this secton who
wish to appear as soloist to make
api ointments with him for auditions.
Those who are interested are asked to
telephone him at 6101, Extension 51,
or to write him in care of the depart-
ment of iiiu.c at East Carolina Col-

EAST CAROL I NUN
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER ti m
Students Differ Today
A recent article in the New York Times
released ihe findings of a 1958 commission
survey of American College Students, which
shows that the student of today is "complete-
ly different from his predecessor of twenty
years ago, and even startlingly different
fn m the ore of five or six years ago.
The eu"vey. underwritten by the Edward
W. Hazen Foundation, also found today's
student much older than they were in the
1930s. Nearly half are over 21 years of age;
one-fifth are married. An estimate 40 per
centperhaps moreare earning half or
more of iheir college expenses40 per cent
is the figure even in what used to be "rich
men's ' Schools of Harvard and Yale. One un-
iversity estimated 98 per cent were working.
More and more students come from
w rking class families, and from minority
racial or religious groups. They are diverse
in ability, too. One freshman class had a
sixth-grade leading level; another represent-
ed i nix tli. top tenth of their high school
sses. But the main level of ability for all
students has shown a "radical increase the
commission found, much of it in the last half-
dozen years. The rise will continue, the report
declared.
Many of the new students are no longer
interested in campus traditions, activities,
or even athletics. They are more interested
in study, in self-knowledge and in prepar-
ing for careers. Business administration and
the social sciences seem to be the most popu-
lar fields. Students appear willing to work
or to make the grades needed to get a job
or to get into graduate school.
The commission suggested tihat many
colleges are failing to offer the typically will-
ing and able student very muchthat 5 to 60
per cent of the able students may drop out
or transfer. Their reasons are by no means
entirely financial; dissatisfaction is a major
factor. j
The v. mmiission urged that the standard
four-year span of study and grades-and-cre-
dits requirements for graduation be forgot-
ten. And it exhorted the colleges to make
over then programs to provide more and
more independent study.
A few schools are already doing things
along the lines suggested. High school stu-
dents who lave taken advanced work in high
school may enter college as sophomores.
Those who do good work may be freed
of class attendance and work on their own
under professional guidance. Grades no lon-
ger are all-important. Even so, Harvard Uni-
versity feeis that many students are working
far belov their capacity because they are
w t sufficiently engaged or challenged.
The big schools are setting the pattern
now. One university official has pointed out
that courage and imagination in the college
administration is the answer to the new pro-
blems. Higher education is a "leadership in-
dustry' in which the small institutions tend
to wait for the large, prestige members to
shape new patterns.
EOC Crys For Money
The Student Senate has advocated a
raise in tne activity fee from $11 to $15 per
quarter. The reasons for this hike in fees
are most obvious.
This quarter the Budget Committee was
criticized severely by heads of organizations
who felt that their respective organizations
were not receiving enough money to operate
well. The budget barely passed the Student
Senate. Because of a tie, SGA President Mike
Katsiaa had to cast the vote which carried
the budget.
The Budget Committee did the best job
that they could. However, they could not
appropriate more money than they had. They
did not have enough money.
Many People who are opposed to the raise
in the activity fee have said that with more
and more students coming to East Carolina.
we should have more money to satisfactori-
ly allot to organizations and committees.
This has been proven incorrect since this
quarter our enrollment has reached a peak
never before readized on this campus, and
we still do not have enough money.
The price of entertainment has gone up.
Students clamor for better and more well-
known entertainers. We do not have enough
money. ,
Others cry for larger and better publi-
cations, for a twice a week paper. We do not
have enough money.
Organizations such as the YWCA and
YMCA cry we want to be strong as we should
be Help support us. We do not have enough
money.
Fans cry for bigger and better teams;
they want to belong to the Southern Con-
ference. How can we expect to belong to the
Southern Conference when our athletic bud-
get does not even measure up to those of
most of the North State Conference. The
smallest athletic budget in the Southern Con-
ference is twice the size of East Carolina s.
We do not have enough money.
The only way to get the best for and
from all organizations and groups is to give
them money; in other words we must raise
our activity fee. There is no other solution.

EDITOR
Dear Editor:
East Carolina College is growing
faster than any other college in the
state of North Carolina. For thoae
of you who have been here long
enough to notice the changes on
our campus you can understand why
this growth is taking place. Each
year more and more out-of-state
students arrive on the E. C. C. cam-
pis to begin their four years of
college studies. Yet we still lack in
the prestige that is due 9uch a qualifi-
ed institution. Why?
The mdst obvious reason is our
lack of school spirit. Students are
always ready to criticise when some-
thing isn't accomplished that should
be BIG. If you will notice however,
the same students on the campu9 are
always in the spot light. They are
interested enough in the social and
academic status of E. C. to really
work.
Common Y-shop talk criticizes
these energetic leaders, but how
can these passe students question
the things going on when they don't
have enough interest to try to change
them? There are numerous occasions
with which to exemplify the state-
ments I have made.
The IFC sponsored a dance with
the Cavaliers, a Negro combo, for
the purpose of helping the East
Carolinian staff with their journal-
ism trip. A large crowd was expected
since this was a worth-while project
and the Cavaliers are well known
in the state. But. as usual, the same
students were present. Now how can
a person complain about nothing to
do on our campus when they dont
support the things that are happen-
ing?
For Homecoming, the most import-
ant week-end of the year, we had a
band that was almost unknown to
most people here. It was the best
that we could do, for the simple
reason that students, last year, voted
down a hike in the entertainment
fee. How on earth do students ex-
pect to have big entertainment with-
out paying for it?
The load can't keep falling on
these interested individuals who have
carried it so long. It's a full-time job
for everyone. If you want to be re-
spected for your school wherever
you go. you've got to help. We've
got a good schoolwhy not let every-
one else know if
Sincerely,
Dave Thompson
Dear Editor:
I can not understand why Jimi
McDaniel resigned from her position
.s Homecoming Queen. Any girl is
eligible to run except for a first
quarter Freshman, unless the rule
was changed this year. Congratula-
tions to her anyway. Hats off to my
brothers in Kappa Sigma Nu for do-
ing another outstanding job on their
float!
Editors Note: This is a reprint
of a portion of a letter to the editor
from last year's Student Government
President Jimmy Phelps. Upon check-
ing into the rule, the editor could
find no actual written statement of
the rule. SGA President Mike Kat-
ias had no comment to make about
Phvlp's statement.
If Mr. Phelps is correct, an in-
justice has been done to Miss
McDaniel.
Dear Editor:
Would you be willing to visit
someone who instructed you to come
to his dwelling at specific time on a
certain day so that he might delivar
you a speech that would greatly en-
lighten and enhance your position?
I imagine that you have already said
yes. Well, what if you found that
after your vieit with a famous elocu-
tionist, he had merely taken your
valuable time and had said nothing at
all. You would be a bit angry I guess,
providing that he had instructed you
to come.
Well, this appears to me to be just
what the departmental meeting is en-
gaging in. I love to be entertained,
but there is a time and place for this.
3 believe in the value of commercial
activity and I realize the effects of
advertising, but we also have radio,
television, newspapers, and many
other modes br outlets that seem to
be highly suitable for this type of
expression.
It seems that the departmental
meeting has done a favorable job of
subsidizing these commercial func-
tions; and where else could a more
thorough job be done? With required
perfect attendance and a cosmopoli-
tan audience, there is little chance
that there will not be someone pre-
sent who will need the services of
the elocutionist. What is more, it ia
a free service that allows the privi-
ledged orator to avoid the expense of
subscribing to someone who charges
for this service. If the orator finds
that he has exhausted his lecture
material, then we can invite the lo-
cal recruiting officer to taka the
stand. He might enlist thirty or forty
students before the meeting is ad-
journed. I might add that this does
not eliminate the Wac recruiters be-
cause they have already demonstrat-
ed their ability to appeal to the men
as well as the women! This was de-
monstrated at a departmental meet-
ing in a not so subtle manner.
Maybe college students are to pro-
vide time for this sort of thing. Any-
way, it is required that they find
time to attend. It is implicit that the
meeting is not in vogue unless it is
elongated, with a final result being
to dissipate one's mind and to leave
little or no utility for the student to
value. It is my understanding that
meetings conducted through a didac-
tic medium are to be in vogue among
college students since they arrive at
the greatest utility.

The Editor of the East Carolinian:
An article on today's issue of the
Esat (sic) Carolinian was referring
to people who take books which do
not belong to them. The remedy sug-
gested to stop this practice was:
"Put an honor system into function
This indicates that the writer shares
a rather general misconception of
what an honor system is or can do.
An honor system is not a means of
stopping people from doing wrong.
It will not do that. An honor system
s a set of privileges which is granted
to a group which has first proved
that it has honor. An honor system
will work only among people who
have honor. It cannot be imposed. It
must be evolved. No student body
is ready for an honor system until it
has shewn that it deserves the priv-
ilege, and no honor system will be
workable until actions and not words
have shown that the students are
ready for it. Privileges presuppose
responsibilities, and not until students
have shown themselves willing and
able to bear responsibilities can pri-
viliges be granted. This letter is in
no way inferring that our student
body here is not ready for an honor
system, but is setting forth standards
which in the opinion of the writer
should be met by any student body
which is seeking a basis for an
nonor system.

To the Editor of the East Carolinian:
In your issue of Oct. 30 or 39
depending on which page one reads
there was a noticeable absence of
any record of our recent Danforth
Lecturer, Professor Thomas Petti-
grew. At one of his lectures students
filled Joyner Auditorium; they sat in
the aisles, on the stage and in the
hall. Here was evidence of Campus
Climate Toward Learning that de-
served praise. The lectures, too,
merited recording and comment.
It is hoped (by me) that the spo-
ken wisdom of the forthcoming Dan-
forth Lecturer, Gerald Johnson (any
kin?), will be carefully preserved in
print.
Sincerely,
George Pasti, Jr.
Dear Editor,
I am deeply concerned at the small
number of Juniors who have been
attending our class meetings. I wish
to direct the following comments to
those who have taken no part in our
Junior class activities.
Plans are in the making for the
annual Junior-Senior dance which will
be held in May. We must raise at
least 260 to complete the budget for
the dance. This is one reason why
it is so important for Juniors to at-
tend the meetings. To raise the
money and have a good dance, we
must have the cooperation of every
Junior.
Do you want a good Junior-Senior
danceThe' answer to this question
depends on you, the Junior class, to
give your all to make this year's
Junior-Senior the best ever. Don't
let the responsibility fall on a few
loyal Juniors. Show your Interest
and dependability by being present
and by taking an active part in your
Junor class,
I am calling for the help of
every Junior to taka seriously this
letter and to head it by being present

Females Shine
REBEL Editor Reviews Play
By BRYAN
When four women, such as Genia
Truelove, Leigh Dobson, Gwen Mc-
Clamrock, and Doris Robbins, are
placed in a one-room island hut with
nothing to do but steal each other's
man, then you can expect acting at
its best. For here, women are playing
the role of women who are playing
the role of women.
And when these four very female
women have a scene all to them-
selves, each one trying to steal the
scene and each one trying to "out-
act" the other, all four steal the show
and all four act a little better than
they are ordinarily able to.
This was one of the most charm-
ing moments in the Friday night
performance of "The Admirable
Crichton Another charming mo-
ment came when Lady Brocklehurst
interrupted the family going over
the newspaper accounts of Ernest'
book. Shirley Dixon was a perfect
Lady Brocklehurst. Miss Dixon had
another minor role in last fall's
"House of Connelly' and her perfor-
mance Friday night marks one of the
biggest advancements of all Play-
house players.
Other notable advancements were
Larry Craven and Charles Jenkins,
who have, for two years, walked onto
the stage, said a few lines, and walk-
ed off. They have always said their
lines well, however, and in this play,
where they had larger roles, they
said them remarkably well.
"The Admirable Crichton" is not
particularly easy play for a college
cast to produce. One reason for this is
the type of comedy. The humor in
"Crichton" is subtile and often falls
flat unless done by very experienced
or professional actors. Some very
funny lines, spoken by Merle Kelly,
brought no laughter at all from the
audience Friday night.
"Crichton also has technical dif-
ficulties. Each member of the east
had to master his dialect, which they
all did very well, although it waa
often difficult to understand Leigh
Dobson, who otherwise performed
beautifully as "Tweeney
Special praise should alto go to
Genia Truelove and Bill Heislip. In
a sense, it waa their play (alhhough
they swiped a little more of it than
HARRISON
belonged to them) and they kept the
ball rolling through al! four acts.
From all indications, "The Admir-
able Crichton" was not too popular on
the campus. If this is so, I do not
believe it was the fault of the actors
or the directors. The performance
I saw was a skillfully produced play,
the result of a highly intelligent and
worthwhile effort. Perhaps the two
preceding performances were not
ironed out Perhaps "Crichton" was
too remote or "stuffy
I do not pretend to know what
kind of play would be popular on
this campus, but I feel the impor-
tant thing, for the reading committee
to keep in mind, is the talent in the
Playhouse and what play can best
bring out the talent.
'Crichton was significant for just
that reason. It enabled many people,
who have played minor roles in the
past, to "come out And I feel that
the advancement in acting in "Crich-
ton" justified whatever unpopularity
it might have suffered with the
general mass of students.
I feel that congratulations are in
order to every member of "The
Admirable Crichton" cast, from the
set-builders to the admirable Crichton
ton himself. An admirable play, an
admirable cast.
In 10 Years
Prediction: American
Sen Will Rise Again;
Spil In Flowerpots
By BILLY ARNOLD
Dong
at a
de enjoy
asd hie wife chaperoned
I want to make a prediction. I want you
to mark my words, here, and remember that
I was the first to make this prophecy:
In the next five or ten years American
women are going to catch hell.
The signs are all around us. Look at the
ads, lok at television, look at the movie
and magazines.
Ever since 1909, when a visiting En
glishman made the statement that the men
in this country "are under the whip of the
American women there has been rising no-
tice given to the dominance of the female in
the United States.
In the past five years several books have
been written which have blasted the Ameri-
can man as a spineless, henpecked, gutless,
half-witted jellyfish and the American wo-
man as a ruthless, cunning, determined task-
master. The most recent books given wide
publicity are "The Decline of the American
Male" by the editors of Look magazine, and
"The American Women by an Englishman
named Eric John Dingwall.
Such a furor has been raised by these
writers abut the feminization of U. S. Men.
about "togetherness" and all the other frills
and fancies that have been imposed upon the
society, thst the sponsors of ads throughout
the country have begun to make changes.
Sponsors of most of the cigarettes no
longer picture a lovely model puffing away at
their brand. Now, they have a big, sweaty,
hairy si-b smoking on the job; soap sellers
have started using muscular guys bathing in
the shower as well as lucusious dolls loung-
ing in the tub; beer manufacturers have done
away with women in their ads.
Movies have begun to lean a little less
toward the picture of the hero as an over-
gr wn grinning idiot who occasionally still
wets his pants (although I suspect Holly-
wood will be the last to realize what's going
on). And just look at the way magazine ads
have beguii to change ,
Only slightlyI agree. But, still, tiie
signs are there.
I predict that soongive them five or
ten yearsAmerican men will stop and turn
full-face around, grab the whip, and start
whacking the little women. He will stop wash-
ing dishes, put his feet on the table, smoke
where he shouldn't, put ashes on the rug,
spit in the flowerpots, pick his teeth and his
nose in public, and start barking at his wife
just for the amusement of his poker buddies
who will begin playing at his house twice
a week.
It sounds far-fetched, but it'll happen;
if for no other reason than because the Wall
Street Ad Moguls want it.
Come to think of it, women run Wall
Street, too, maybe they're fed up with long
pants.

Boone's punchless Bucs tackle defend-

1958 champion.
East Carolina, loser of their last
two games due to weak offesive
showings, will be trying to stay alive
in the race by topping the league
leaders. It will be the Bucs last shot
at the crown this season and Coach
Boone is expected to have his club
:it a "high pitch" for the tilt.
Playing at Hickory, the Bears will
rank as heavy favorites to sew up
their fourth consecutive gridiron
crown. The single-wing attack has
rolled to easy victories over the
Bucs during the past two seasons,
scoring over forty points in both
games.
The Bears lost a couple of regulars
last season but are once again tough
behind the running of tailback Bill
Ackard, All-Conference last season,
and fullback Lee Farmer. The for-
vard wall is also packed with All-
Conference returnees headed by cen-
ter Joe Murphy.

pected to show the Bears plenty of

form a strong forward wall. Lynn
Burnett, co-captain and center, is
expected to be ready for some action

past three weeks.
Everything is at stake for the
luckless .Pirates as they hit the wes-
tern trail. The team has surprised
most experts with their showing this
season and will be seeking to bring
home the "Bear Meat" this week-end.
Coach Jack Boone brought East

On Muddy Field;
Offense Stalls
Appalachian, a hot and cold team
all season, felt right at home in their
mountain mud this past Saturday
night as they upset East Carolina
15-0 at Boone.
The Apps, undefeated at home this
feason, played one of their best
games of the season in knocking off
the reviously undefeated Bucs. The
loss dropped DOC to second place in
the loop behind defending champion
Lenoir Rhyne.
Appalachian put the Pirates in hot
water early in the game as they
pounced on a fumble on the ECC 22
yard line. The Mountaineers drove to
the one before being halted by a
fumble.
Coach Bob Broome's club stayed
in EOC territory the rest of the half
although the kicking of Randell
Holmes set them back several times.
Freshman Tommy Wilson got the
Apps rolling with a 27 yard pass to
Ansel Glendenning. Several plays la-
ter Glendenning, the conference's
leading ground gainer, cut off right
tackle for nine yards and the first
touchdown of the night. Wilson
booted the extra point as the first
quarter ended with the Apps leading
Warren Gaines. Ed Norris, Bob Wat-
kins and Clint LeGette form the nu-
cleus of the backfield. Bill Ward's

Going into intramural play this

coming at the hands of Umstead Hall

men are close behind and had a re-
cord of 0-2 going into this week's

In the contest with the Falcon
group, Fred Bartholemew, Mack Sey-
mour and John Alphine put on a
good show as they scored a TD
apiece. Balance and Cahoon notched

East Carolina got busy the second
period and made their only scoring
threats of the night. Behind the
passing of quarterback Ralph Zeh-
ring, the Bucs penetrated to the Apps
fifteen, seven, and one yard line. On
all three occasions, the locals were
punchless and never hit paydirt. The
half ended with Pirates on the Apps
one and only second down. James
Speight almost scored the previous
play but lost his footing before scor-
ing.
The second half proved to be all
Appalachian as ECC never got start-
ed. The Apps tallied their last touch-
down early in the final period as they
sewed up the contest.
Glenwood Wilson, pint-sized half-
back, skirted 48 yards to set up the
score. Two plays later he scored from

tests during the week pitted Kappa
Alpha against Pi Kapi a Alpha,
Kappa Alpha versus Theta Chi, and

Apprentice Spill
Baby Bucs, 30-12
Passing and team depth on the
part of a strong Newport News Ap-
rentice School football team proved
to be too much last Friday night as
the Buc JV's went down before them
on the former's home grounds by an
impressive 30-12 score.
The tidewater gridders scored four
of their six touchdowns on passes.
Nick Helgert, Pirate quarterback,
attempted to counter their strong
passing attack but was successful
in hitting halfback Mack Roebuck
with a 63 yard aerial for the only
rass TD rlay of the night. Roebuck
also scored the second Buc six poin-
ter with a sweep around his own left
end in the third quarter. Ed Hardi-
ster and Tom Kitzmiller also figured
nighly in the JV's attempt to up-end
the powerful Penninsula eleven.
The contest was the final one of
the 1988 season for Coach Earl
Smith's Baby Bucs. The season
ended with the Pirates having a re-
cord of 1 win, 1 tie and three losses
They were beaten by three of the
better teams in small .college play,
the Citadel JV, Fork Union Military
Academy and the Apprentice School.
The little Pirates were able to tie
a strong E. City eleven and defeat
Chowan College.
