Tony Mallard, an East Carolina
Battier, was elected secretary for the
North Carolina Young Democratic
Clubs at their twenty-fourth annual
convention in Asheville last week.
ThI 21-year-olu Jones county na-
tive, who was the darkhorse candi-
date in one of the most hotly-con-
tested races at the convention, de-
feated his opponent Emma Parry of
Woman's College 508 to 217.
This marks the first time an E ist
Carolina student has wen a state of-
fice in the Young Democracy. The of-
fice f secretary is not traditionally
held by a college student.
Arriving in Greenville a tired hut
happily victorious Mallard stated
Sunday night, "I feel that my elec-
tion to this state-wide office will
make more people in North Carolina
aware that East Carolina College is
i!o longer a small or insignificant
school, but that it is one of the fast-
est growing schools in the state, not
only in size hut in prestige
Political leaders from all over the
slate congratulated Mallard and the
East Carolina delegation. Among the
first was Senator Sam Ervin. The
present state YDC president Art
Vann, an attorney from Durham, who
supported Mallard, stated, "You did

Mallard will take office in January
until then he plans to meet with other
incoming officers in preparing a YDC
program for the coming year. Mal-
lard, a business major from Trenton,
is presently president of Pi Kappa

'During my term of office 1 hope

Contractors Bid
For Saw! Annex
East Carolina College received bids
Tuesday for construction of an addi-
tion to the Rawl Classroom building.
Bids will be received October 13 for
alterations to the Flanagan Class-
room building, according to an an-
business Manager F. D. Duncan Of
the college.
Mr. Duncan also stated that bids
have already been received and a
contract will be awarded in the near
future for construction of a road and
idewalk leading from the Memorial
Gymnasium to the east side of the
Rawl building.
The addition to the Rawl building
will provide quarters for the director
of public relations and extension and
is staff and facilities for the test-
ing laboratories and offices now lo-
cated on East Eighth Street, Mr.
Duncan said. Public relations and ex-
tension work is now being carried on
in temporary offices in the Alumni-
Faculty house on the West campus.
The addition will be a fire-proof
structure which in design and ma-
terials will match the Rawl building.
The exterior will be brick, and the
interior will be finished in concrete
blocks. The building will have twelve
rooms located on two floors and in-
cluding 5400 square feet of floor
space.

Players Begin
'Three Angels'
Rehearsals
Rehearsals have gotten underway
'or "My Three Angels this quarter's
major production put on by the ECC
Playhouse. James A. Brewer, who
has begun his first year at East
Carolina as the assistant director,
has two roles in the production; that
of director and also as one of the
'n"els, Joseph.
This is the second play in which
Mr Brewer has portrayed the part
f Joseph. He last appeared in "An-
.oV i t the University of Southern
California, where he performed in
several other popular productions.
The action of the play takes place
at the family Ducotel's home in Cay-
enne, French Guinea, which is a pri-
son colony. The time is December,
1910, and the Christmas spirit lends
a festive atmosphere to this delight-
ful comedy. Angels, portrayed by
Tames Brewer, Jim Roper, and Ed
Barclift, are three convicts who are
hired by the Ducotels to do odd jobs
about the house. As the play pro-
gresses the convicts manage to get
themselves involved with the family's
problems and miraculously solve
them in a manner which only con-
victs could do.
A dictatorial old cousin, played by
Ray Tolley, tries to force Monsieur
Ducotel, Dan Yanchisin, to give us
is store because of his easy-going
manner of handling business; but the
amrels come to .the rescue and the
results are hilarious.
Other members of the cast are:
Lvnn Glassford as the Monsieur's
ife, Emily; Leigh Dobson as their
daughter, Marie Louise; William
Bowen, Paul, suitor of Marie Louise;
Ken Harris, the Lieutenant and Jane
Berry man, an absent-minded old
woman who owes the Ducotel's mo-
ney.
ident said, "Tne parade will begin at
ten o'clock instead of ten-thirty, since
it is going to be considerably longer
than we estimated There will be
over seventy units in the parade Satur-
day.
Time for the introduction of can-
didates for queen at Memorial Stadi-
um has also been changed, accord-
ing to Wells, from one-thirty to one-
fifteen. "We have more candidates
this year than any previous one he
commented.
Beginning with a street dance be-
hind the student union, the weekend
will continue Saturday morning at
ten o'clock with an estimated hour-
long parade down Fifth Street.
Alumni will be welcomed in the East
Cafeteria following the parade at
noon for a buffet luncheon.
At 6 p.m. the Fall dinner of the
Society of Buccaneers will be held
in New South Cafeteria. Wives and
dates of the "Hues will have an in-
rormal dinner in East Cafeteria at
the same hour. Fraternity and soror-
ity dinners are to be held in different
restaurants at the same hour.
After presentation of the candi-
dates, the new queen will be crown-
ed at College Stadium shortly before
the football game between Elon and
the Pirates of East Carolina.
The East Carolina Band, under the
direction of Herbert Carter, has
planned a special and varied program
this year for the homecoming fes-
tivities.
Highlighting the halftime activi-
ties, the show, entitled "Show Busi-
ness will offer everyone a treat
from the world of popdlar music.
As a special attraction Mr. E. C.
Beatty, accompanied by the band
will sing his own composition "Ski
King Every lover of juke box mu-
sic will recognize this as one of the
top hit tunes on the nation's turn
from recent North Carolina folklore.
The folks around Charlotte tell us it
really did happen! Said Mr. Carter,
"We are happy and fortunate in be-
ing able to have E. C. Beatty sing
his own composition, and we believe
the students will enjoy it as much
as anything the band has ever spon-
sored The band will underline the
major event of the song as they
arrange themselves in the form of,
you guessed it, a man on skies.
Other songs the band will play
in the show are: "Surrey WTith The
Fringe On Top illustrated by a
surrey with a fringe, and moveable
wheels; "Steam Heat from the
hit "Pajama Game which will be
characterized by a large thermom-
eter with an animated mercury; and
from last season's great show, "My
Fair Lady a horseshoe pattern will
help to visualize the sentiments ex-
pressed in "With a Little Bit of

To the tune of "Carolina in the
Morning the Marching Pirates will
join the students, faculty, and ad-
ministration in welcoming the re-
turning alumni. In this closing phase
of the show, a large A will be formed
on the field while the band plays
that favorite when old friends get
together, "Auld Lang Syne
The halftime festival will be closed
in the usual manner with the band
forming the letters EC and leading
everyone in the singing of the Alma
Mater.
Dr. Cleveland Bradner will be back
in his usual spot as announcer for
all but the Ski King number. For this
he shall be joined by an EC alumni
and the present Miss Greenville, Miss
Alice Ann Home.
Throughout the evenings program,
the EC majorettes will be on hand
to take their share in the celebration.
They will present various dance and
twirling routines against the baek-
With all the attraction this home-

Fire Drill Flops
The fire drill this week could be called
unsuccessful due to the fact that students
were completely lackadaisial about the whole
matter and also that there was no unified
alarm system.
Elaborate plans were made by a faculty
committee for fire exits, but we have seen
students leave buildings more quickly and
quietly at the end of a class when the bell
rings.
Perhaps if there had been a good alarm
system (and will there be if there is ever a
fire?) and the exact time for the drill had
not been announced, the whole experiment
would have been more real. In at least one
building, no bells rang at all. But students
and faculty, knowing the time set for the
drill, left class.
All in all, it seems that the children at
the Wahl-Coates School could have done a
better job of evacuating. v

Strikes Cause Tension
Factory and company men all over the
United States hold their breaths and cross
their fingers in hopes that the worst steel
strike'in the history of the country will end
the week.
Some are less optomistic, remembering
that David J. McDonald, steel union presi-
dent, has vowed that the union does not in-
tend to surrender any hard-earned rights in
exchange for the wage increase union mem-
bers seek.
One thing for certainif the strike is
not ended within the next few days it will be
necessary for the President to step into the
picture.
Companies which use steel in their pro-
duction lines have begun to exhaust the sup-
plies that they had stored up before the be-
ginning of the strike in July. Many have
already used up their now valuable steel sup-
plies and have shut down.
Even such a large plant as General
Motors is beginning to lay off employees.
Several other large plants have laid off as
much as one-fourth of its working staff.
Day by day others are cutting back pro-
duction, reducing shifts, or shortening their
work week in order to conserve precious steel.
For some plants the most pressing prob-
lem now seems to be danger of damages to
furnaces. And the longer the furnaces re-
main sealed, the worse the damages are like-
ly to be.
Despite government prodding and grow-
ing shortages among customers, the steel
strike continues and unemployment figures
soar. In addition to the half million striking
steelworkers, the rolls of workers idled by
the steel strike has moved close to the 200
000 mark. A large percentage of the layoffs
have occurred in the transportation and min-
ing industries.
President Eisenhower says he is "sick
and tired" of the stalemate and the damag-
ing strike and so is everybody else. The two
parties concerned have had ample time to
prove that free collective bargaining can
work without government compulsion. It's
now time for the administration to step in
and help get things settled.

National Problem
Unions On Strike;
Are They Needed
By KATHRYN JOHNSON
On the heels of the greatest steel
strike in our nation's history (see
editorial this page), 85,000 longshore-
men walked off their jobs, despite
government pleas that they stay on
the job. In an appeal to the Inter-
national Longshoreman's Association,
Secretary of Labor James P. Mit-
chell declared a strike at this time
would seriously affect the nation's
welfare.
The longshoremen, forgetting their
commitments and responsibilities,
declare that they will stay oiyitlka
wises saad wlneiBii ftey now receive
$2.80 per hour.
The number of strikes that have
crippled our nation's economy in the
past few years have grown to an as-
tounding number. Out of these strikes
come violence, unemployment, a loss
to American economy, but off-times
higher wages and fringe benefits.
There was a time in the history
of the United States when there was
a definite need for strong labor
unions. That time is gone and the
need long since vanished.
Mallard Holds State Office
Congratulations to Pi Kappa Alpha
president Tony Mallard who won a
state office at the Young Democrats
Convention this past weekend.
Mallard was up against some ra-
ther tough competition and pulled
through with flying colors. At the
conference East Carolina College was
outranked as far as the number of
delegates allowed by only N. C. State
and Carolina.
"Quiet Period" Causes Bickering
Fraternity "quiet period initiated
to give every fraternity an equal
chance to rush freshmen and to al-
low freshmen to get settled before
deciding whether to pledge and what
fraternity to pledge, has caused quite
a bit of bickering between campus
fraternities.
'At least two fraternities are at
each other's throats yelling "dirty
rushing but so far no one has put
a case before the Interfraternity
Council.
These little things, "picking at the
edges tend to weaken the fraternity
system on campus. It may be strong
enough to take a lot of internal strife
one day, but not now.
Telephone Troubles On Campus
The campus telephone system is
even worse than it was last year.
Terrifying noises squeal out over the
telephone lines and one can hardly
call a number before being cut off
from his party. This is especially
embarrassing when talking to some-
one off campus who does not under-
stand our terrible situation.
More complaints are coming from
the dormitory residents than anyone
else since they pay for their calls.
Does the trouble lie in the telephone
operators or in equipment?
Good Entertainment Series
The SGA Entertainment Commit-
tee under the direction of Earl Beach
of the Music Department has done
an excellent job in planning a series
for this year. "Tops" in the enter-
tainment world will appear on cam-

Campus Overtones
IFC Takes Greek Spotlight
Rush, Pledging Discussed
By MIKE
East Carolina's social fraternity
system will decide an important is-
sue this afternoon as you receive
your copy of the East Carolinian.
The local Interfraternity Council will
vote on an amendment to Article 12,
which deals with rules for rushing
and pledging.
If passage is granted by the male
Greek representatives, the present
rushing regulations for freshmen will
receive significant changes that me-
rit the attention of the entire student
body.
In fraternity circles, there are two
organized methods of rushing on a
college campusopen or closed. Since
the social fraternity became a fixture
at East Carolina, the college adminis-
tration has strongly sanctioned the
latter of the two. The reasons for
this have been: to allow the fresh-
man an opportunity to prove himself
in his scholastic work; to give him
sufficient time to adjust to the col-
lege cycle; and to offer an observa-
tion period during which he can make
his own personal choice.
East Carolina's closed period lasts
or an entire quarter. If the fresh-
man interested in joining a fraternity
has acquired a "3" average, he then
has the right to take part in Rush
Week during the second week of the
winter quarter.
The proposed amendment has re-
sulted after a meeting of fraternal
minds striving to accomplish neces-
sary steps for the proper maturity of
the entire system. It appears to be a
step in the right directiona strong
IFC dealing fairly to all involved
parties can be a tremendous asset to
the college.
Under the proposed amendment, a
fraternity member will not be allow-
ed to do the following: discuss his
fraternity or have any private con-
Inspiring Books Collect Dust
By PAT
Just how many of our present day
scholars read anything more informa-
tive than "True Romances "Play
boy and "Mad"? If a college poll
were taken, the main choice of litera-
ture at East Carolina College would
include only a few eighth-grade cali-
ber magazines and novels by Frank
Yerby, Frank Slaughter and others
who write about basically the same
idea in each book. Many students feel
intelligent when they can say that
William Faulkner is their favorite
author. After all, he is quite a popu-
lar author, thanks to a few critic
writers in some of our more promi-
nent magazines; but just how many
of our so-called literary genius' real-
ly understand what he's talking
about, the characters or even the
basic plot?
If students would begin with nov-
els which are easier to understand
and then gradually work toward
some of our contemporary story
tellers such as Faulkner, the re-
sults should prove gratifying.
When Tom Sawyer, Gulliver's
Travels and Treasure Island appear
on a reading list for an English
class, only one or two will report on
them. Why? Because students have
heard about these books since they
were in grammar school and are
under the illusion that thasa are
definitely not for a college schol-
ar. Or, more often, they've raard
about them and remember that the
stories did not contain a "boy meats
girl, boy gets girl, boy loaas girl,
boy gets girl in last chapter" plot.
Is it really worth reading? Defi-
HARVBY
nitely not! But, scholars, some of
these little children's books are pret-
ty good reading.
After going through these books
perhaps some of the other classics
would be appealing reading, such as
Scarlet Letter and House of Seven
Gables by Hawthorne, Teas of the
Durbervilles and Return of the Na-
tive by Thomas Hardy, and David
Copperfiekl by Charles Dickens.
Then in a few years you may have
enough background to understand
Crime and Punishment.
Some of the "lighter" books which
most college students would find
enjoyable reading are Rebecca, My
Cousin Rachel, and Scapegoat by
Du Maurier, Cimmaron and Sara-
atoga Trunk by Edna Ferber, and
Elmer Gantry, Dodsworth and Main
Street by Sinclair Lewis. Most of
these novels are easy reading and
very interesting.
Some may find short reading more
to their liking. One of the best
collections of short stories was writ-
ten by Guy de Maupasant and it
comes in the paper back edition.
Doubleday Publishers have four vol-
umes of short stories by such au-
thors as Kipling, O. Henry, Maug-
ham, and Irving. These stories were
selected and compiled by Thomas
B. Costain (The Silver Chalice) and
John Beecnoft. Each volume con-
tains over thirty stories and at
least three novels. These selections
are some of the best ever written.
Reading is so informative and en-
tertaining that it's disgusting to see
books collecting nothing but dust in
our college library.

Many argue that the poor fresh-
man will lose the friendly feeling if
this practice is adopted, but this
shouldn't he the case if fraternity
men are properly indoctrinated as to
the extent of their relations with
freshmen.
The purpose of this legislation is to
offer equality among fraternities in
rushing procedures. It can be a source
of adding new dignity and respect
for fraternities on campus if handled
properly. Fraternity men must re-
member the cardinal principle used
by their national offices, "A frater-
i.ity man i a man of honor
In closing, passage of such an
amendment will require an educa-
tional system for the incoming stu-
dent. The IFC will have to plan early
explanation speeches which leave no
doubt in anyone's mind. It will also
be necessary for an abundance of
printed matter covering all aspects
to be prepared for distribution. A
thorough orientation will remove the
possibility of any minconceptiens.
Letters Discuss
Chaperones, News
Dear Editor:
An eternal problem on this cam-
pus is the problem of chaperones for
student dances. It becomes increas-
ingly difficult for students to find
faculty members who are willing and
able to take the time and respon-
sibility to chaperone student func-
tions.
In hopes of eliminating one of the
big difficulties in finding chaperones,
the Student Government has now
worked out a plan where baby-sit-
ting services can be provided for
those faculty people who have small
children.
The administration requires that
student dances be chaperoned by a
member of the faculty or staff. The
students are going out of their way
to make the "job" a pleasant one.
Members of the faculty who enjoy
dances and who enjoy the company
of their students should cooperate
in solving this problem.

Campus Copt Lead
Interesting Lives
By MARCELLE VOGEL .
Have you ever noticed how many
interesting people one comes in con-
tact with each day on the campus,
but still does not know? Many of us
feel too shy to talk with or to meet
new people, while others feel that
they don't have the time to stop and
talk. There are a few such people
on campus whom students look to as
only necessary evils the campus
cops.
After chatting with our campus
policemen, I found that they are
not only interesting people to talk
tn, but friendly as well. Police chief
Johnny L. Harrell tells me that after
force at Tarboro, he came to EC in
1953 to take over the position that
Mr. Williams, who was retiring, had
tovered for thirty years.
Later on Elwood Pittman, formerly
from Tarboro, was added to the staff,
and the two of them worked toge-
ther at night manning the campus.
In 1957 a new officer was added, Mr.
William Flake, who previously had
served on the Greenville police force.
Mr. Harrell was then promoted to
chief, and he worked during the day
while the other two were in charge
at night. "Back in those days Mr.
Harrell relates, "we were all walk-
ing. Finally in 1958 the administra-
tion gave us a much needed motor-
cycle, and this year we advanced to
:i new shiny police car he added.
"We are sure proud of our car Har-
tell said. "It's a late model, and is
radio equipped
Mr . Harrell tells me that he has
five children. The oldest Fayette
Harrell, a graduate of East Caro-
lina, is now teaching in Jacksonville,
Florida. Benny, the only boy in the
family, is currently a sophomore here
at EC. Elizabeth and Peggy are in
high school, and his fourth daughter,
Gwendolyn, is in Jr. High. His wife is
a school teacher in Edgecombe Coun-
ty. Mr. Pittman and Mr. Flake also
reside in Greenville with their fami-
lies.
Mr. Harrell said, when questioned
about student cooperation, "I like
working with the young people very
much. I find that we have a very
good student majority, and the stu-
dents are very cooperative with us
"Our work here is anything but
dull Chief Harrell commented, and
aft1 talking with him I can under-
stand why. "One evening Mr. Har-
rell related, "As I was walking
through Slay (it was then a boys
dorm), I noticed several boys trying
to hide something from me "Being
curious he went on, "I wandered
into their room and found that the
boys had a dead cat in their posses-
sion, one which had evidently been
'borrowed' from the Anatomy de-
partment "Since exams were sche-
duled for the next day he explain-
ed, "I could see why a dead cat with
pins pointing out the various organs
could be of great help "The boys
looked at me doubtfully, and then
without a word they one by one left
the room, with me holding the pun-
gent smelling cat
"Deciding to play a trick on them
he continued, "I very carefully re-
moved all the pins, and put them
back in different places, changing
the names of all the organs "A few
days later as I passed the boys on
campus Mr. Harrell amusedly re-
lated, "I asked them how they made
out on the exam. With a great deal
of effort one of the fellows said,
'something must have gone wrong,
because we all failed "
"Another interesting incident which
happened a few years ago Mr. Har-
rel remembered, "started out with a
phone call from the house mother in
Cotten. She called me late one
night continued the chief, "all out of
breath saying something strange was
going on outside the dorm. Leaving
my office, I advanced to Cotten, and
saw a car parked by the back door,
with a boy standing beside it. After
asking the boy what he was doing
there, and getting no answer I polite-
ly asked the boy to leave. The boy
made no comment, but also refused
to leave. Becoming suspicious Mr.
Harrell continued, "I shined my
flashlight into the car and seeing no
one, I decided to shine the light under
the car "Expecting nothing there,
you can Imagine my surprise Har-
rell related, "when I discovered a
pretty young thing crouched under
the car in a puddle of grease "To
top it off, the girl had on a frothy
white dress he added. "Evidently,
the girl finding she had been locked
out of the dorm, had been seeking
another entrance when she heard me
coming, and the first place she could
think of to hide was under the car
Mr. Harrell finished.
"Yes Chief Harrell commented,
"I've found everything from cats to
goats in the boys dorm, to girls under
their cars. But it's all in a day's
work, and it's great fun, seeing all
the foolish and comical things the
kids can do, and think of. I don't
believe I'd trade my job for any-
one's he added.
Fraternities Going Op;
Clash Anticipated
By DERRY WALKER
One of these days the fraternities at
this .school are going to have a head-on col-
lision with the administration that will rat-
tle every brick from the far corner of Gar-
ret to the basement of Jones. I hope I am in
Cuba or somewhere when it happens, be.
cause I would shudder at the sight of books,
pencils, glass, fraternity pins, and wheels
living through the air.
It is . known fact that a strong frater-
nity system cm literally run a campus. Of
course, to do this the system must be power-
ful. The EC fraternity system has the po-
tential -power, but.isn't ite organized-yet
It "rearire.s near the point of organizaton,
crumbles, re-organizes, then crumbles again.
One of these days, though, it will success-
fully organize and brother, there will be an
army. With the kinks of building and estab-
lishing behind it, the system will then be able
to devote all its effort to whatever it de-
sires, because it will have more money, n
strength, and more political pull than any
other organization on campus with the- a
ception of the administration itself.
Now there's a chance that the collision
will not occur, but it will take the utmost
cooperation between administration and fra-
ternity hierarchy to prevent. Why? Because
sooner or later, when fraternities haw-
cessfully welded themselves together, the
going to ask the administration for some-
thing the administration won't want to g
and for the first time the fraternities will be
able to stand up and s.ty they want it any
and then there will be a collision. Cooperal
only, could prevent it. Give a little, tai
little.
"Bulldog" Dyson, SGA treasurer, w
into a frenzy last week when he read that
the SGA pays babysitters for faculty n.
bers who chaperone school events. Okay, okay,
so I was misinformed, but I'm not half as
bad off as the poor faculty member who told
me his babysitter was going to be paid
the SGA. He'll have to re-arrange his budget.
I just print a retraction.
If you will note the free-movie ached .
you'll be surprise that some movies we're
getting haw only recently been realt-a
and a few will be shown on campus bei
the Pitt Theatre has them. (For their usual
fantastic prices.)

Rli TOM JACKSON
Various warehouses throughout Green-
ville are once again being littered with
chicken wire, napkins, beer cans, nails, beer
cans, and beer cans, to symbolize the coming
of this year's homecoming parade.
SGA officials have reported that thi
to be the "biggest and best" homecoming
ever but then they say that every year
Homecoming always seems to be pretty
much of a success anyway. The parade al-
ways tarns out pretty good, the ball gam?
well, we have one, all the teas and re-
ceptions come off okay, and the usual crowd
gets pleasantly tight.
Let's hope the weather is a little cooler
to provide a minimum of gnats, a little more
football atmosphere, and make the bourbon
taste better.
A toast to Dean Mallory and his support
of social fraternities on campus.
The new Dean is taking an ACTIVE
interest in these organizations and has com-
mented that he thinks a strong fraternity
system at East Carolina would be a great
asset to the school. Dean Mallory in the pas:
few weeks has spoken to each social frater-
nity on campus stressing scholarship, leader-
ship and cooperation.
The farce fire drill Monday was marred
by many things. For one thing an ineffec-
tive alarm system was quite evident. The
students seemed unconcerned and many
stood around in groups only a few feet from
the exits causing a slight tangle. Some of
the professors stood across the street from
Austin and joked while a couple were con-
cerned primarily with how long their class
was going to be disrupted. One guy, who had
jeen harping all week on the ned for such
a drill came ambling out of the building so
ate that some students had already started
back in at another door.
It was apparent that the only fire was

Enrollment Tops
All Previous In
College History
Enrollment of 4042 men and women
at the College for the fall quarter
of the 1959-60 term has been an-
nounced by Dr. Robert L. Holt, reg-
istrar. This figure marks the top rec-
ord in number of students taking
work on the campus since the open-
in? of the institution in 1909.
The program of extension courses
offered this fall by the college will
have, when organization of classes
is completed, an enrollment of more
than 1800 students, according to in-
formation from the office of Dr.
Ralph Brimley, diceptftjt.of PuDlic re'
'ations and extension.
Total enrollment or the fall quar-
ter, including students taking work
on and off the campus, is estimated
at present at about 6,000 men and
women.
The total of 4042 students at the
college tops by 358 last fall's enroll-
ment of 3684. The official count of
this year's freshman class has not
yet been completed but is expected
to exceed last fall's total of 1142.
All dormitories at East Carolina,
which provides accommodations for
2350 men and women, are filled this
fall. Because of lack of space in
residence halls, many students are
rooming in homes off the campus.
A new dormitory for men now being
erected next to Jones Hall, which
was completed during the past sum-
mer, will provide additional living
quarters for 520 men students. The
building is expected to be completed
next June.
The extension program for this
fall, being organized at present un-
der the direction of Dr. Brimley,
provides courses for students at
Camp Lejeune, Seymour Johnson Air
Force Base, and Cherry Point Marine
Base, and in 19 cities and towns in
Eastern North Carolina.

East Carolina Plays Don In Homecoming

C Li D I J MaWHHM Bucs Rate Heavy
bpeight, bass Lead
Devastating Comeback
"Heap big smoke but no fire" was
story in a nutshell for the Catawba
Indians last Saturday night at East
Carolina used a mat-grinding ground
attack to smother the Indians on
their own field, 34-7, in a North
State battle.
Approximately 3,000 fans in-
cluding the East Carolina band
were on hand to see East Carolina
fall behind a conference foe for the
t'irsi time this season only to battle
back and play one of their best
tames of the season.
Score First
Glenn Bass and James Spieght
a couple of halfbacks who had rather
run than eat provided the Pirates
with the needed spark te carry them
to their third victory of the season.
Bass, the long legged junior from
Wilson, broke the ice when he sprinted
68 ards for his sixth touchdown of
the season. Jerry Carpenter coolly
booted the point and the Pirates were
v n the march.
Catawba drew first blood when
they marched for a touchdown in the
five minutes of the trame. Ron-
Ball scooted 33 yards to the ECC
nine and then a penalty and three
t lays later saw Sam Morrow score
from the two. The extra puint was
and the Indians moved out
front with a cheering crowd behind
them.
James Speight, the Bucs All-Con-
ferenei star, set op the second ECC
score with a 43 yard jaunt. A 'ter
momentarily -tupping on their own
39, Speight hit the center of the
field on an inside reverse, fought
his way past several would-be tack-
lers and stumbled into the open.
Never regaining his balance, Speight
was pulled down on the Catawba 18.
Ralph Zehring kept on the option
on third down for six yards and a
: down on the eight. Glenn Bass
then sailed around left end for the
tv.nd score of the game. The extra
point attempt was no good and East
Carolina led 13-7.
Tne Bucs were adding the clincher
late in the period when Bass and
Speight once again providing the
yardage. The speed-merchant from
Wilson Bass almost got his
third score when he hit the trail for
a 41 yard run to the Catawba nine.
Speight got the first of his two touch-
downa on the next play, zig-zagging
the final distance for the tally. After
a five yard penalty, Henry Kwiat-
kowski came in ton boost the extra
point and ECC surged ahead 20-7 at
intermission.
Final Period
The final period saw two more
touchdowns cross the Catawba pay-
dirt with the Pirate third unit pick-
ing up the final score.
Sonny Basinger yet loose for a 23
yard gallop to set ECC on a march
which almost resulted in another
touchdown. The elusive Speight tip-
toed off his tackle and scored from
30 yards out but a 115 penalty crossed
out the score and threat.
Zehring's pass was intercepted but
Catawba was forced to kick and
Basinger almosl shook loose. The
155 pound Concord native sliced hack
and forth before finally being tripped
up by an official. Basinger netted 21
yards on the punt return and ECC
got another score this time.
Speight picked up the tally by go-
ing the final 10 yards for paydirt.
Zehring passed to Bill Cain for two
points and the Bucs led 28-7.
The ECC third unit finished out
the game and held the Catawba of-
fense intact. Tackle Gary Cannady
broke through to block an Indian
punt and set up the final tally.
End Joe Loflin scooped up the free
ball and raced to the Indian four
before being pulled down. David

Amid the blaze of Homecoming
pageantry, Fast Carolina's high flying
Pirates lay their undefeated confer-
ence record on the line, when they
play host to Elon's Fighting Chris-
tians Saturday afternoon in College
Stadium. Came time is slated for two
o'clock.
The Pirates, whose 34-7 defeat of
atawha lat week left them unde-
feated in conference play, are ex-
nected to be in top shape for the
Ffomeeoming tilt. Injuries on the
quad are few, and all top perform-
ers should be ready to go at ful!
i eed.
Elon's Christians, though smarting
fn mi defeats by Guilford and Appa-
lachian, are still in high snirits, anil
hould give the Pirates a good tussle.
Early in the season, they defeated
Western Carolina, who was considered
a potential for the North State Con-
fereace crown.
The Christians are a young team,
and according to scouting reports are
improving with every contest. There
are even returning lettermen on the
Elon squad, and most, of the second
team i- composed of freshmen. These
facts indicate that quite a rebuilding
iii1, i- going on within the Christian
amp.
In past seasons, Elon's offense has
been concentrated on the belly series,
this season, however, their offense
i been altered somewhat. The
Christians have shifted offensively to
the wing T and the slot back. Most
students of football are, most likely,
familiar with the wing T, the slot
ba k offense is somewhat like the
wing T, except for the end being
split and the halfback playing in the
normal end slot. This offense may be
a great asset to the Christian cause
in the East Carolina encounter.
Elon's hopes for the East Carolina
contest are centered around Harold
McLean and George Wooten. McLean
a halfback has shown up well in previ-
ous Christian games, especially their
win. over the Naval Apprentice
School. Wooten, a replacement for in-
red quarterback Charlie Maiden, is
described by scouts as a dangerous
runner, and should see much action
against East Carolina.
Coach Jack Roone's Pirates, enjoy-
ing one of the best seasons since
the great 1953 championship era, are
favored to extend their winning
streak thi Saturday by defeating
Elon.
Since the beginning there have been
only slight injuries prevalent in the
Buc squad. Mac Thacker, fullback,
Wayne Davis, guard, and Jerry Car-
penter, quarterback, suffered el-
bow, knee, and hip injuries respec-
tively, but should be ready for action
against Elon.
Chuck Gordon, a regular at the
center post, will be returning from
the sidelines Saturday, after sitting
out the previous Pirates games due
to an injury sustained in preseason
play.
In the backfield, the starting line-
up, hairing changes, should be like
this: James Stpeight and Glenn Bass
at halfbacks, Mac Thacker at full-
back, and Ralph Zehring calling sign-
als from the quarterback slot.
In the forward wall, Wayne Davis
and Jim Gordon are expected to start
at guards, Ed Emory and Vernon
Davis at tackles and either Lynn Bar-
nett or Chuck Gordon at center.
David Thomas and Bill Caine are ex-
pected to get the nod at the end
positions.
Table Tennis
Tourney Opens
The quarterly Women's Singles,
Men's Doubles, and Mixed Doubles
table tennis tournaments are sche-
duled to be held on Thursday, October
15. Interested students are asked to
sign up in the College Union.
The Mixed Doubles event, in which
a man and woman play on a team,
will not be held unless at least four
entries are signed up by 6 p.m Octo-
ber 15. The first matches in all three
events will get under way at 6:30
p.m and all matches will be best
of three games, series. The Women's
Singles and Mixed Doubles will be
run on a round-robin basis, while the
Men's Doubles will be single elimina-
tion, unless less than eight teams
are entered, in which case it too will
be a round-robin tourney.
With no experienced doubles teams
on campus, the tournaments should
have many surprise results. Finals
will be held around 9 p.m in the
College Union Reereetien Area.
