Porter To Speak
In Forthcoming
flanfforth Talks
The second Danforth guest lec-
turer for the 1959-1960 Beries, the
Honorable Charles O. Porter, Con-
gressman from Oregon, will be on
ampus October 19 and 20. The topics
of Mr. Porter's lectures will be: "Our
merican Risks and Responsibilities"
ind "Central and South America:
Nascent Democracies
After attending Northwestern Uni-
versity on a journalism scholarship,
Mr. Porter graduated from Harvard
College with honors. He served in the
armed forces and earned three battle
stars, during his four years of active
duty.
Mr. Porter began his political
career in 1951, but it was not until
19M that he was elected to the
House of Representatives. He has at-
tained national recognition for his
constructive work in the Post Office
and Civil Service Committee. He has
likewise gained commendation for his
fight against Latin American dic-
tators and for his strong stand to
suspend nuclear bomb testing.
Because of his long interest in
foreign affairs and his personal ex-
perience, observation, and study of
South American peoples, his lec-
tures will be pertinent and realistic.
Other Danforth guests during the
fall quarter include Professor Lewi3
Hakne, University of Texas and Doc-
tor Arthur Larson, Duke University.

Of College Work
"Two of the purposes of the East
Carolina College radio station are to
make the people of North Carolina
aware of the work of the college,
and have them recognise our need
for their understanding and financial
ifMHirt stated Miss Rosalind Roul-
ton in a recent interview.
The campus radio station, WWWS,
i- now almost two and a half years
Id, and operates on both A. M. and
F. M. frequencies. The radio station,
with offices located on the second
floor of Joyner Library, transmits to
ill dormitories, with the exception
af the new men's dormitory Jones
Hull. Plans are now in the making
to extend radio service to this build-
ing.
The staff of WWWS consists of
about fifteen student volunteers, who
make up the Radio Club. They are
niided by the Faculty Radio Coun-
11, of which Mr. Wendell Smiley
serves as chairman.
WWWS's schedule includes eleven
hours and fifteen minutes of broad-
casting each weekday. Primarily,
most programs are papular music.
There also are short programs by
college -officials along with special
remote broadcasts.
Plans are being made for "Broad-
casting Day to be held on campus
Tuesday, October 20. This event will
be an effort to acquaint professional
broadcasters, high school and college
students with the facilities and re-
sults of the campus radio station.

Surrounded by a record crowd,
homecoming activities materialized
as scheduled, with plenty of action
to make them enjoyable, and enough
hot weather to make some phases
of them uncomfortable.
SO A President Dallas Wells re-
ported, "everything moved according
to schedule. I want to thank all the
hard workers who so successfully
planned the activities :ind expedited
them so efficiently
On Saturday morning, pretty girls
atop convertibles, marching bands,
ars full of dignitaries, and elaborate
floats rolled down Fifth Street and
through downtown Greenville in the
longest Homecoming Parade in ECC
history. 9GA officials report tbat
over seventy units appeared in this
year's procession.
Immediately before the football
irame between East Carolina's Pirates
and the Christians of Elon College,
an estimated crowd of ten thousand
spectators filed into Memorial Stadi-
um to witness pre-game activities.
Dotty McEwen, Homecoming spon-
sor of Theta Chi Fraternity, was
crowned Homecoming Queen for 1059
by last year's winner. Jimi McDaniel.
Miss MoEwen, who was elected "Miss
Congeniality" in the North Carolina
Beauty Pageant last summer, is chief
cheerleader for ECC. After being
crowned, she reigned over the suc-
ceeding activities on campus during
the week-end.
After kickoff. the EC Pirates com-
manded the game, and went on to
defeat Elon. 31 to 8. During half-
time, the marching band, directed by
Herbert Carter, displayed its ability
by entertaining the crowd of fans
with a musical exhibition centered
around hits from great Broadway
musicals. Clyde Beatty, Chartottean
recording artist, was featured in per-
son and contributed the song, "Ski
King which he wrote and recorded.
Awards for dormitory decorations
were announced at the game along

they should be tied with a string.
No posters shall be placed to a

This is a definite part of the
college program and all jun-
iors that absent themselves from
this program will be stopped
from all classes.
There may be some question
regarding the definition of a
junior. This refers to everyone
who is a junior as of this date.
It does not apply to so-called
rising juniors or those who are
two or three points from being
a junior. It is those who are
bonafide juniors as of now.

floats. Slay Hall won first prize in
the former, and second and third
prizes went to Jones and Wilson
Halls, respectively. Theta Chi Frater-
nity received first place in the float
division, and was followed by Sigma
Nu, Pi Kappa Alpha and Alpha Phi
Omega for second, third, and fourth
places.
Beginning with the buffet luncheon
at noon in the East Dining Hall, re-
turning alumni had opportunities to
visit with students and facultv
friends, and renew past affiliations
with the school in general.
Wright Building was packed to
capacity Saturday night for the an-
nual dance. One of the largest crowds
ever to attend a function at EC
danced to the music of Sam Dens
hue and his orchestra. Following the
dance, crowds and a multitude of
automobiles formed a congested pic-
ture on the streets in front of the
dormitories, as the last of the noise-
making and music ceased and the
weekend came to a close.

EAST CAROLINIAN
College Changes As
Enrollment Increases
Could it be that ECTC high school is see-
ing its last days? Could the 52-year-old con-
ception of East Carolina as a little old school
in Greenville be in the process of changing?
Could be.
Each year the phrase is heard less and
less, especially from undergraduates, and for
ample reason.
East Carolina was founded in 1907 to
provide more teachers for North Carolina
and it did just that until recently . . . but now
the story has changed.
The little old teachers college has grown
over night into a college worthy of anyone's
respect. The enrollment of over 4000 stu-
dents boast a wide variety of careers from
primary grade teaching to professional art-
ists, to potential lawyers. This year the ad-
dition of a four year nursing school has been
an even further addition to ECC's field.
In addition to new courses of study, the
faculty at ECC has been greatly improved
over the years. Each fall the roster is filled
with new names, well qualified professors to
provide better instruction, and slowly but
surely pull up the academic standards of ECC.
The administration has expanded to han-
dle the increasing amount of work in that
field and all over campus new buildings are
springing up to accommodate the ever in-
creasing enrollment.
In the past three or four years local so-
cial fraternities have organized and grown
and affiliated with national fraternities and
bnded together in the IFC. They are still
growing and will continue to grow.
Last year the campus blossomed forth
with even another aspect of college life. So-
i ial sororities made their local debute ancl
are now in the process of going national,
with two already affiliated.
So we see East Carolina has everything
needed to be known as a college (ivy halls,
etc.). It havs the enrollment, it has the build-
ings (or most of them anyway), it has a
competent faculty, and a capable administra-
tion. It has fraternities and sororities, and
two soda shops. The only thing lacking to
make ECC the laymen's concept of "college"
(ivj halls, singing, panty raids, etc.) is tra-
dition. Keep in mind, however, that tradition
is not established overnight or even over a
few years. It takes time . . . and we have
plenty of that. A toast to the future of ECC,
and to the past of ETCT high school.

Campus Overtones
Greek System
Takes Big Step
By MIKE KATSIAS
A progressive step forward is be-
ing offered to the citizens of the
Tarheel state on October 27. This is
the date of the State Bond Election
that concerns itself with nine key
issues.
The first issue, which should be of
prime interest to East Carolina stu-
dents, deals with an appropriation
of $18,891,000 to partly relieve North
Carolina's badly over-crowded edu-
cational institutions. The hue and
cry is clearly evident we need
more dormitory space, more class-
rooms and more laboratories.
There's no enlisted opposition to
the election. The apathetic tendencies
of the electorate appears to be the
only obstacle. Too often, people say
they'll vote and then just seem to
forget! Make it a point to vote
the straight ticket . . . give North
Carolina an opportunity to overcome
the disadvantages of the growth
process.
IFC
East Carolina's male Creek system
took the big step in a unanimous
fashion last Thursday afternoon with
its overwhelming passage of the pro-
posed "quiet-period" amendment.

Director Of Dietary Service Comments On Past
Position, ECC Changes, Cafeteria Employees
Big Time, Big Step
Paul Julian, Director of Dietary
Service, is a man who has worked all
his life around food.
Beginning as a young man, he
worked with the Child's Restaurant
Organization in such states as New
York, Florida, Washington, D.C and
Virginia. "This is a big organization
he exclaimed, "and there were 60
restaurants in New York alone
"Nexb Mr. Julian continued, "I
managed two cafeterias in Norfolk,
Virginia for 6 years, but when World
War II broke out I joined the Navy,
and was in charge of the ships service
and cafeteria. Tnis was run similar
to the P.X he added.
After the war Mr. Julian went into
business for himself. He set up his
own seafood restaurant in Norfolk,
where he served everything that lived
in water.
Finally in 1946 he left Norfolk and
moved to Washington, D.C where
he was in charge of two cafeterias
of the government service. In 1947
he came to East Carolina where he's
been ever since. When Mr. Julian
came here there were about 1100
students, and the two dining rooms
were arranged to feed the students
family style dinners. This soon chang-
ed to the cafeteria style we now have.
"I've seen a lot of changes taken
place since I've been here Mr. Ju-
lian said, "We used to have concrete
floors, big heavy tables, and no
acoustice, but improvements are be-
ing made all the time "There have
been 3 more dining rooms added, and
also another cafeteria which is in
Paul Jones dormitory he added. The
new dining room seats around 300
students, while the other four seat
1,000 all together. "We feed around
5,000 meals a day he continued.
"We're real proud of our modern
kitchen which is electric and steam
equipped with a dish washer which
will scrape, pre-wash, wash, rinse,
sterilize, and dry 1200 dishes at a
time he continued. "We hire 52
regular employees, and 92 students
to help out in the cafeteria Mr.
Julian said. A lot of thought and
planning goes into seeing that the

student gets a well balanced meal, at claimed, Tve been up here 3 weeks
a price he can afford.
"I find the majority of the stu-
dents very fine and very nice to work
with Mr. Julian commented, "and
it's a joy to work with, and to serve
them When asked about any inter-
esting incidents Mr. Julian said,
"About two years ago a girl went to
the President and complained about
not getting a well balanced diet. The
President said that he thought the
meals served were well balanced, but
asked her what was wrong. She ex-
and I haven't gotten any collards
yet' " Mr. Julian continued, "When
the freshman comes in he eats every-
thing he sees until his pocketbook
gets low
Mr. Julian who has been a bachelor
for 17 years recently broke his re-
cord and got married last August
22. He met his wife 9 years ago
when she was up here getting her
master's degree. She is now a teach-
er in the Smithfield High School.
Strong Measures End Strikes

To The Editor
Dear Editor,
The American College Poetry So-
ciety is pleased to announce that its
second annual anthology of outstand-
ing college poetry is now being com-
piled for publication this winter. We
would be very grateful if you would
alert interested students on your
campus to this opportunity to have
their work published.
Contributions must be the original
work of the student (who shall re-
tain literary rights to the material),
submitted to the undersigned, care of
the Society, with the entrant's name,
address, and school on each page.
Poems, which may deal with any sub-
ject, may not exceed 48 lines, nor
may any individual submit more than
five poems. Entries which are not
accepted for publication will be re-
turned if accompanied by a stamped,
self-addressed envelope, but they
cannot be otherwise acknowledged,
nor can the Society compensate stu-
dents for poetry which is published.
All entries must be postmarked not
later than midnight, December 1,
1959, to be considered, and the deci-
sions of the Society judges are final.
Your kind cooperation in this pro-
ject is deeply appreciated by us.
Your truly,

A loud explosion rocked the Albany
area and an indignant woman tele-
phoned a newspaper to find out what
had happened. A reporter said he
thought a jet plane had broken the
sound barrier. "If that barrier keeps
getting in everybody's way she
snapped, "why don't they take the
darn thing down?"
(The Reader's Digest)
For the past year or so a signifi-
cant change has been taking place in
the American people's attitude to-
ward labor unions. Events in recent
days serve to emphasize this fact.
Within a period of one week, Presi-
dent Eisenhower invoked the Taft-
Hartley Law to end one strike and
began proceedings to invoke the law
in another strike.
The actions taken by the President
are not as significant from the stand-
point of public attitude as the fact
that such strong measures were ne-
cessary to end the damaging strikes.
For reveral years, the mere threat
of a strike often caused industry to
grant outrageous demands. Conse-
quently, labor enjoyed a long period
when collective bargaining usually
meant industry concession to union
demands.
The past World War II period was
one of the most prosperous in Ameri-
can history. Demand for goods and
services increased at a phenomenal
rate. In order to meet these demands,
industry had to maintain full pro-
duction at practically any price.
Knowing full well that industry could
not afford a production curtailing
strike, labor leaders took the offen-
sive and often demanded exhorbitant
wages and benefits.
As times progressed, labor unions
conditions for averting strikes be-
came more demanding. Then, during
the 1958 recession, industry found it
Students With Apathetic
View Look To Future
By PAT HARVEY
'Several professors are continually
"spouting off" about the lack of in-
terest in "this and that They ac-
tually have the right to drone on
and on about the lack of interest
among students, that is, besides in-
terest in the opposite sex, the soda
shop, fraternities and sororities.
Books and college matters, other
than these mentioned, are strictly
out of bounds. Students here do not
have the curiosity with which so
many of our scholars are equipped.
The only thing that arouses an EC
coed's interest is "Who are you dat-
ing to the dance?" or "Who are yon
dating to the football game?" Tis
a pity that our teachers cannot
stimulate enough student interest
for one to wonder about the why's
and how's in psychology and sociology
or the who's and what's in English
Literature and history.
This whirlwind life that we, the
students and the working set, are
trying to follow socially, keeps us
from learning everything we think
is necessary. How can we do every-
thing when there are still only 24
hours in a day? Organization is a
good word, but if one can follow this
plan, he is one of the lucky few.
Take this typical situation for in-
stance: Jane wants you to try out
for a part in the campus play. You
accept graciously and are actually
looking forward to this tryout night.
But, villian, Dapper Dan hits the
scene. Dan, that charming fraternity
boy, calls you on the phone and
says, "Doll, how's about you and me
diggin' a wheel and cuttin' out to
you know where?" Well, pray tell,
can a girl resist such a delightful
invitation? Well, she has an interest
but, as usual, it's thrown in that
irresistible direction . . . that other
sex. What can be done? This, my
dear people, has been a problem for
centuries.
But, why don't the students take
an interest in East Carolina College?
We live here approximately nine
months out of a year! It's your
school! Your future's at stake! Why
can't we organize our time well
enough to be a part of East Carolina
College and also socialize? Is there
a definite answer? No! We are free
to do as we wish except for a few
minor restrictions. Therefore, in col-
lege one is practically independent,
except where the money angle is con-
cerned. Here we sit; free to make
our own decisions with only a few
obligations to our parents such as
passing our work and receiving a
degree.
Unfortunately, most of our stu-
dents steer afway from responsi-
bilities. But how can they do this
when they start teaching a class-
room of students, who have also had
very few responsibilities? How will
they react when they are called on
to advise the newspaper staff, an-
nual staff, or drama group? Does
the future look bright or dim? Can
you walk into classroom and see a
crystal clear picture of what's ex-
pected of you or will your mind be
rather foggy?

could resist labor demands without
devastating effects. Then and there
thev began their comeback fight.
At the beginning, small industrial
concerns fought local labor groups to
a standstill and often managed to
even win concessions. Then larger
companies followed the lead. These
larger companies found that by band-
ing -together and forming an allied
'rort, they could battle im re effec-
tively. It was at this point that presi-
dential intervention became neces-
sary. With public opinion behind him,
and the nation's economy at stake,
the president saw that a standstill
would result in the fight between the
Steel Industry and the United Steel
Workers Uniona standstill in which
the nation's economy was the victim.
What happens after 80 days pass
and the provisions of the Taft-Hart-
ley Act elapse? What effect will this
have on the labor union movement?
How long will the American economy
need to regain its strength? These
are only a few of the questions con-
fronting us at this time. None can
be answered concretely. Throughout
rnion industry history, the pendulum
f opinion and advantages have
swung from one group to the other.
Therefore, it appears that we are
currently in such a transitory period
from labor to industry and by no
means should the present situation
be viewed as the beginning of the
labor unions' end.

Noble Effort Proves
Only Fruitless Task
By DERRY WALKER
I would like to use this space to thank
some noble men.
Every year, the fraternities, sororities,
the military, and various other campus or-
ganizations combine imagination with several
thousand dollars to compose what is the
homecoming parade. Without the money or
the imagination, there would be virtually no
parade. There would hardlv be a homecom-
ing, depending on how you define it.
When a group of people spend as much
money, hard work, and contribute as much
toward any one effort as did the brother
of The Kappa Alpha Order when they built
their float and entered in the Saturdav pa-
rade, receiving no more recognition for their
efforts than they did, it's time for someone

These hours are Monday through

However, students are asked to re-

tered before the end of this period.
"We ask that students comply with

Last year Fast Carolina College lish
received $75,000 from state funds
for the installation and operation
of closed-circuit television in order
to ascertain whether various college
subjects can be taught effectively by
closed-circuit TV and to find out the
extent to which classroom instruc-
tion can be supplemented satisfactor-
ily with CCTV lectures and visual
aids.
Although the experiment is not
complete, many things have been
learned from its first year of opera-
tion. New methods and ideas concern-
ing classroom instruction are being
brought to light, analyzed and util-
ized.
Dean Leo W. Jenkins said, "Al-
though we are still in the middle of
the experiment and have reached no
definite conclusions yet, many things
have been learned from the past
year's operations. For example, we
have observed that there is prac-
tically no difference in the test re-
sults of students in a TV course and
those in a non-TV course.
We also realize that an outstand-
ing teacher, even on TV, is better
than a mediocre one in a live class-
room situation. We are going to con-
tinue the experiment until we can
develop it to the best use for the
college. There are many new ways
and ideas which we have not used yet.
Many of these are being tried and
tested this year.
"Opinions on the new medium in-
dicate that many professors and stu-
dents like it and many don't. It has
many advantages as well as dis-
advantages. Perhaps we will discover
that CCTV is a wonderful supple-
ment for classroom teachers, but not
a substitute for them
Results of a student evaluation
(published from Dr. Jenkins speech
at the thirty-eighth annual meeting
of the North Carolina College Con-
ference) show the following answers
given on survey questions.
Do you find that there are ques-
tions in your minds that remain un-
answered during ami after the tele-
vision periods? Yes 208, No 116.
Do you feel that the time being
spent on television instruction could
be spent better in face-to-face in-
struction by your classroom teacher?
Yes, 202, No 61.
Du you feel that you are benefit-
ting from the use of television as a
medium for teaching English 1?
Yes, 99, No 219.
When you enrolled, did you prefer
not to be put in a television section?
Yes 182, No 140.
By TOM JACKSON
again, would you request 1 work of the student in writing and
placement in a television section?
Yes 42, No 280.
Does your effort to see and to
understand what the television tea-
chers are saying keep you from
fully understanding the lecture? Yes
169, No 153.
In the speech Dean Jenkins also
pointed out that problems had arisen
in adjusting the speed of delivery,
especially with teachers who were
teaching on TV for the first time.
Some visual aids are not as effec-
tive on TV as they are in a normal
classroom due to the absence of
olor. Another big problem indicat-
ed was the inability of students to
isk questions, thus losing interest.
Some of Dean Jenkins prelimin-
ary personal observations are:
1. CCTV is not a substitute for
ood classroom teaching.
2. Where an institution has suf-
ficient teaching staff, this medium
seems to be effective only as a sup-
plement to regular classroom teach-
ing.
3. Good TV instruction is much
better than mediocre classroom in-
struction, but good classroom teach-
ers are also effective on TV.
4. The most effective roll for CC-
TV seems to be that of supplement-
ing through visual aids, et normal
classroom instruction.
Dean Jenkins added that in this
year's experiment new things such
as more extensive use of the two
way communication system, several
teachers working together with each
one emphasizing his speciality on a
subject, and live classes on TV are
going to be tried.
Mrs. Lena B. Reynolds, who was
chairman of the English depart
ment's TV program last year, re-
ports that teachers in the English
department found the following
things:
1. English I, as a whole, cannot be
taught effectively by television, al-
though some units of English I lend
themselves to this medium.
2. Television classes in English I
are unpopular with the students be-
cause they are unable to ask ques-
tions of the TV teacher as the ques-
tions arise; they are unable to par-
ticipate in class discussion, and
some students become sleepy during
TV presentation (a few complained
of eye strain).
She also reports that from the
standpoint of teachers, the primary
objection to the use of TV for teach-
ing English I arise from the fact
that only the theory of writing can

Participating teachers pointed out
that some good results of the ex-
periment. Each lecturer showed spe-
cial preparation for his presenta-
tions, providing excellent examples
of types of writing. The use of sev-
eral teachers provided different
viewpoints and varied illustrations.
Some students liked the uniformity
of assignments and profited, they
said, from their ability to discuss
problems with their friends.
Dr. Todd of the social studies
lepartment said, "From my experi-
ence I can see both pros and cons
regarding TV teaching. In light of
the rising cost of education, in-
creased enrollment a n d teacher
shortage trends, I think there is a
great opportunity for instruction by
circuit television. For example, I can
see the possibility of numerous bene-
fits resulting in being able to teach
History (12(H) students) or Govern-
ment at one time by one trained
teacher over TV with the help of i
a few teachers, or graduate assist- j
ants and departmental majors. This j
could bring about a great saving
in trained man power and time, as
well as in dollars and cents.
"On the other hand, one of the
weak spots in our present TV pro-
gram, from a teacher-student point
of view, is the fact that the pro-
fessor in front of a camera is un-
able to sense student reaction to
his statements and thereby misses
the spontaneity of 'give and take' so
vital to an intellectual climate. Too,
I am aware that any competent TV
lecture will lose some of the inspira-
tion and timing he normally receives
from the personal contact he enjoys
in the usual teacher-student class-
room situation. With experience, I
believe these shortcomings can be
greatly reduced.
'1 might add that CCTV appears
to give to more students a greater
degree of uniformity in the quality
of the course and also increases
efficiency in grading techniques. The
latter saves a lot of man power and
time which can be used by partici-
pating teachers to do individual re-
search and improve the quality of
their advanced courses.
"Our various testing and measure-
ment devices indicate that students
taking American History over TV
do as well in their work, academi-
cally speaking, as do those students

room situation

Fast Carolina stated Dr. Morton
Winsberg, assistant professor in the
geography department. Dr. Winsberg
thus explained the purpose for his
Central American trip this past sum-
mer.
British Honduras was the first
stop on Dr. Winsberg's trip which
began in June and ended in August.
Here he spent almost two weeks
working with geographer Allen Bush-
tmg who was making a land survey
of British Honduras. Dr. Winsberg
also managed a side trip to the Yuca-
tan Peninsula in Mexico where he
visited the Mayan ruins of Chichen,
Itqa, Uxmal and Xuinantanieh.
From British Honduras, Dr. Wins-
berg traveled to San Pedro Sula in
Spanish Honduras and then on to
Guatemala. While in Guatemala, he
attended lectures at the University of
San Carlos under eminent Scottish
historian Murdo MacLeod. In add-
tion to this, Dr. Winsberg had the
tains and between the capital city
and the rural areas Dr. Winsberg
pointed out.
When Dr. Winsberg was in Guate-
mala there were seven bom
within ten blocks of his residence.
These bombings occurred because of
political upheaval within the country.
"The political condition is ex-
tremely tense explained Dr. Wins-
berg, "there being not only strained
relations with Mexico and British
Honduras, but also internal tensions
between liberal and conservative
parties
Dr. Winsberg also visited El Sal-
vador and its capital San Salvador.
When traveling through these I
tral American countries, Dr. Wins-
berg's transportation was second
class bus, and he explained that this
gave him a chance to get a better
look at the people themselves.
Even though he had planned : i
visit other Centra! American c
tries. Dr. Winsberg did not complete
his visit. "It was my intention to
cover most of Central America, but

While visiting throughout the

stay overnight, in many of the In-
dian villages. He also climbed the
second highest mountain in Guate-

feet high.
"I found the trip through Guate-
mala most interesting because of
the tremendous contrasts. There is

Fraternitv brothers dine together on Thursday nights
Theta Chi Enjoys Fruitful Togetherness Gained
By Special Fraternity Section In Jones Dorm
Last year the fraternities were
given the opportunity of having a
fraternity section in Jones Dormi-
tory. After all consideration was
given to this offer, Theta Chi was
the only fraternity to accept. The
main reason for accepting a fraterni-
ty section was so that the brothers
could be together, as they should be.
They have not regretted this decision
because the value of living close to-
gether has proven to be to its bene-
fit. During the quarter problems of
decorating the float have come up
and living together has enabled
Theta Chi to solve the problems
when it was necessary; otherwise, it
might have taken a week to come to
a mutual agreement.
Living in a fraternity section has
made the brothers proud of their
section and an effort is made to keep
the section in top shape. For instance,
a pledge has been assigned to hall
duty every night and all of tha
brothers try their utmost to keep the
halls clean. Not only are the halls
cleaned, but each brother has de-
veloped a pride in the appearance of
By SID GREEN
his room and continually strives to
keep his room ready for guests at
all times.
Studying in the section has been
made possible through a rule com-
mittee which has set up definite study
hours in which none is allowed to
carry on any other activity. A time
has also been set aside to socialize
one hour per night and during this
hour the brothers usually get to-
gether and have a combined bull ses-
sion which helps immensely to bring
about a feeling of security which
can be received only through a gTOup
of people with which you feel an
intimate attachment.
This closeness has helped the
morale of the fraternity rise to a
new high. Since everyone is inter-
ested in having the best fraternity,
all help is turned to any project that
the fraternity sponsors. To make the
fraternity even closer knit, every
Thursday night each member of the
fraternity meets in the dorm section
and goes to Jones Cafeteria for sup-
per together before attending their
weekly fraternity meeting. Before
eating, a prayer by the chaplain is
given and then friendly jokes and
talks are passed from one to another
during the meal-time.
The fraternity boys are not al-
ways the serious type. Every once in
a while one can hear the strumming
of a uke and someone trying to com-
pete with the top singers on the
radio. But all in all, life in a dormi-
tory section is completely different
from rooming next to a personal ac-
quaintance and not a brother.
Larry Bailey, president of Theta
Chi, said he was, "pleased with the
way the fraternity section has
brought a closer knitted understand-
ing and friendship between the
brothers of the fraternity Larry
also said, "the spirit of the fra-
ternity has been boosted 100 per cent
since we have moved into the sec-
tion and it has helped us greatly in
planning for our future fraternity
house, which we hope will be started
by spring quarter and ready for
occupation in the fall ef next year
College Orchestra
Begins Rehearsals
With a personnel of 65 talented
instrumentalists, the East Carolina
College Orchestra has completed its
organization for the 1959-1960 term
and has begun lehearsals for a num-
ber of programs to be given during
the school year.
Donald H. Hayes, faculty member
of the Department of Music, is con-
ductor of the orchestra. Appointed
last year to this position, he had serv-
ed for the previous five years as
concert master of the group.
Membership in the East Carolina
Orchestra, as in former years, in-
cludes members of the college faculty,
student musicians chosen for their
excellent in performance, and off-
campus instrumentalists from Green-
ville and other towns in Eastern
North Carolina.
Officers of the orchestra, an-
nounced by Mr. Hayes, are Luther
W. Gillon of Kannapolis, president;
J. Thomas Spry of Winston-Salem,
vice president; Linda Leary of Eden-
ton, secretary-treasurer; and Judith
E. Hearne of Henderson, historian.
Members of the social committee
for the organization are Linda W.
Campbell of Charlotte, Theodore
Beach of Greenville, and Johnny E.
Johnson of Roanoke Rapids.
Highlighting programs by the or-
chestra during the school year will be

Giannini, noted composer, will ap-
pear with the ensemble as guest
conductor.
East Carolina College has an-
nounced that scholarship awards of
$100 each have been awarded
the college to 155 young men an I
women who are enrolled as students
on the campus this fall.
From a number of applicant- they
were chosen by such criteria a- .
scholastic standing, promise of
ture success, excellent qualities i
personalities, and need of financ i
assistance.
Those holding scholarships in-
clude 129 high school graduates who
have just begun their freshman
year and 26 students who enteiel
Kast Carolina before this fall.
All but three of the recipients are
from North Carolina and represent
43 counties in this state. Two are
from South Carolina and one from
Virginia.
Made available to these students
are the Pitt County Foundation
Scholarships for East Carolina Col-
lege and the East Carolina College
Resources Scholarships.
Those selected as recipients have
been announced by Director of Stu-

ODE TO A GNAT
by David Coxe
Spring is gone
It's the fall of the year,
And damn it all
The gnat is still here.
He's a worrisome creature
And his only quest,
Is to be an irritating
Abominable pest.
You can sit in class;
Fight him all day,
But one fact remains;
He's here to stay.
He'll nest in your ear,
Perhaps crawl up your nose,
And if he ever leaves
It'll be hard to suppose.
So be gone damn gnat
And with a swish of the hand,
SPLAT
No gnat.

In Homecoming;
Twice In Victory
By LEONARD LAO
East Carolina's aggressive Pirates
extended their North State Confer-
ence winning streak to three, by
walloping Elon's Christians, 31-8, be-
fore a Homecoming crowd of more
than 10,000. Even the folks at home
saw the Bucs -showing power in the
air as well as on the groundcrush
Elon on a statewide television broad-
cast, the first game to be televised
in the North State Conference.
The first period saw East Carolina
score twice. After running out of
downs on their first series of plays,
the Pirates were forced to punt.
Porgy Turner's kick was fumbled by
Elon halfback George Wooten on his
own five yard line. A pile-up resulted
from the fumble, but officials ruled
East Carolina had recovered it. On
the first play from scrimmage, quar-
terback Ralph Zehring handed off to
All - Conference halfback James
Speight and the Pirates surged ahead.
Jerry Carpenter's boot made it 7-0.
After exchanging fumbles at mid-
field, the Christians chose to punt.
The ball rolled dead on the Pirate
nine yard line and the Bucs were on
their way to a 91 yard drive, climax-
ed by a 52 yard pass from Zehring
to halfback Glenn Bass. Carpenter
again made the conversion.
The second stanza saw both clubs
push across the goal line. Pirate re-
serve halfback, Sonny Basinger ga-
thered in a punt on his own 43 yard

Freshmen Blast Chowan: Meet Frederick
Bast Carolina's freshmen football
squad travels to Portsmouth, Virginia
this Saturday night for a return en-
gagement with the Frederick College
Lions.
In the previous contest between
the two teams, played in East Caro-

Frosh were victorious by a margin
of 6-0.
The Baby Bucs invade Frederick
territory Saturday night boasting a

for the overall season's play thus sive play on the part of the Baby Buc

weeks ago against The Citadel fresh-
man team.
Last Thursday night, the ECC
Frosh, playing in College Stadium,
romped to a 18-13 win over the
Chowan Junior College eleven.
The ECC-Ohowan game, sponsored
by the ECC Touchdown Club and the
Greenville Jaycees to raise money for
a new scoreboard for the college
field, again featured the fine defen-
line. East Carolina's host of fine
backs also showed up well in the pre-
homecoming tilt.
Stalwarts in the ECC-Chowan
game were backs Billy Torrence, Bill
Strickland, John Tatum, and Charles
Roberts. In the Baby Buc forward

an initial block that sent Basinger
scampering on a 57 yard touchdown
run. Carpenter's try for the point
after touchdown hit the goal post, but
fell to the side, still leaving the Bucs
out front 20-0.
It seemed as though fumbles were
the order of the day. Basinger fum-
bled on his own 14 yard line, and
Elon took over. A penalty put the
ball back to the five and halfback
Jim Short carried it over to break
the scoring ice for the Christians.
Tonv Markosky gathered in Charles

A gala halftime show was put on
by the E.C.C. Band. Climaxing the
performance was E. C. Beatty sing-

The second half failed to be quite
as exciting as the first, but the
Pirates still managed to score in
both quarters.
Moving the ball down to the Chris-

bogged down. Tackle Henry Kwiat-
kowski booted a perfect field goal
fiom that point to further the EC
scoring parade.
With the clock running out, the
Bucs marched 61 yards for the final
score of the game. Once again it u

airlanes where he found Speight, the
senior speed merchant, who gathered
in the pass and fought his way to
pay dirt. The play covered 22 yards.
End Howard Beale snagged Zehring's
perfect pass to add 2 more points,
and a total of 31 for the Pirates, to
the weary Christians 8.
Turning in their usual outstanding
performance in the line were Ed
Emory, Bill Cain and Vernon Davis,
along with Lynn Barnett, John Wike

and tackle Kwiatkowski were in for
special praise on both offense and
defense.
Next week the .Pirates will be fea-

headliner, when they travel to Cul-
lowhee, N.C. to tangle with a highly
respected Western Carolina eleven.

East Carolina's league-leading Pi-
rates face their sternest test of the
1959 football season, this Saturday
night, when they travel to Cullovvhee,
N.C. for a conference tilt with the
Catamounts of Western Carolina Col-
lege.
The Pirates, whose win over Elon
last week 31-8 put them atop the
North State Conference, are prepar-
ing for what should be the toughest
game that they face this year. The
Catamounts will be celebrating
Homecoming in Cullowhee and are
expected to make this a hard contest
for the Bucs.
The Catamounts, boasting a tem
of seasoned veterans, will be placing
their hopes for the East Carolina
game in the hands of a trio of fast,
hard running backs. Bob Cooper, rat-
ed one of the finest quarterbacks in
the North State Conference, and full-
hacks Jamie Wilkes and Lowell Jen-
nings are expected to spearhead the
WCC attack.
Cooper, who was the North State
Conference's leading punter last sea-
son, is Western Carolina's candidate
for Little All-America, and is the
mainstay of the Catamount squad.
The six-foot, 1G5 pound Cooper, can
either run, pass, or punt to perfec-
tion. T.at season Cooper collected
over 1,000 yards in total offense, 774
yards due to his potent passing arm,
and was named to the North State
All-Conference eleven.
Jamie Wilkes and Lowell Jennings,
Western Carolina's "fullback twins
are also stalwarts in the Catamount
offensive picture. Wilkes is a 185
pounder from Winston-Salem who
stands 5-10. Jennings, from Heph-
zibah. Ca is of the same height and
weight. Both Wilkes and Jennings in
addition to being stellar performers
offensively, are also terrors defen-
sively. Both of these boys have had
times this season when they showed
All-American form. They may be a
great thorn in the side of East Caro-
lina in the coming tilt.
In the Western Carolina forward
wall, All-Conference end Jack Spady,
a Castonia, N.C. native and center
Ron Aughtry, another All-Confer-
ence performer, are expected to be
in top form for the ECC-WCC en-
counter. Aughtry, rugged on defense
as well as offense, was injured some
weeks ago and missed the Western
f'aiolina-Catawba game. It is re-
ported that his injury has healed and
he will be ready to go at full speed
against East Carolina.
East Carolina's Pirates, riding in
the top slot in the North State Con-
ference, have been undergoing rug-
ged drills in preparation for the
Western Carolina game. The Pirates
are a little wary that the Western
Carolina eleven may be a sleeping
giant. The Catamounts have lost some
supposedly easy contests but then
again they have knocked off some
highly touted opponents . One great
example of their ability to upset was
their 19-13 victory over Tampa, the
ninth-ranked team in the nation.
The Pirates whose conference rec-
ord is now 3-0, came out of the Elon
game in good physical condition and
should be at full strength when they
meet Western Carolina this weekend.
The strong Pirate defense will meet
its greatest test of the season
against Catamount coach Dan Robin-
son's strong Split-T offense. Expect-
ed to pace the Bucs again in the for-
ward wall Saturday are ends Bill
Cain and David Thomas, tackles Ver-
non Davis and Ed Emory, guards
Wayne Davis and Jim Gordon.
Offensively for the Pirates the
same line'should be playing full time,
barring last minute changes. In the
backfield, lineup should also remain
the same. Expected to be in the
starting backfield are James Speight
and Glenn Bass at halfbacks, Mac
Thacker at fullback and Ralph Zeh-
ring at the quarterback slot.
