In discussing Central America, Dr.
Hanke stressed the complicated na-
ture of the problems which plague
this troubled section. He mentioned
the frequent political upsets; the
familiar struggle between the weal-
thy minority and the penurous mass-
es; and the lack of educational op-
portunity. Dr. Hanke said that though
some Latin American countries have
wealth, as in the case of Venezuela,
this wealth seldom reaches the people
as a whole.
Dr. Hanke said that the Panama
fanal should be internationalized.
He maintained that the canal could
not be defended in a nuclear war and
that as long as America retains pos-
session of it, fhe Panamanians will
remain dissatisfied. "There will be
nothing but political gloom as long
as the United States fails to inter-

"The canal is a political white ele-

While discussing what we can do
to improve our relationships with
Latin America, Dr. Hanke said, "A
Marshall Plan is not enough. Money
is not enough Dr. Hanke expressed
hope that the establishment of the
Inter-American Bank would solve
some of the economic problems of
Latin America, but at the same time
he warned against relying to heavily
on money to solve all problems.
"America mvst stop taking a self-
righteous attitude toward Latin
America's problems that is typical of
much of our diplomacy Dr. Hanke
said. He is hopeful that Americans
will try to be more sensitive to our
telationships with Latin America and
study American policies with more
discern and critical evaluation.

at last a terrible situation on our campus.
Cheating is quite prevalent at ECC and is
generally an accepted practice among stu-
dents here
It is the concensus that the students re-

of our college community, but were consider-

is caught cheating is not only expelled and
never allowed to re-enter that particular col-

sent to any other college. His name is wiped
of the college records as if it were a black

ament ountinued Cousin, "would
the Soviet Union accept comprehen-
sive disarmament with control?"
"Khrushchev said yes, and we said
to be set a definite time. We must
recognize it is our turn to speak
declared Cousins.
"We should define an adequate dis-
armament plan, and then put Russia
n the spot "But then asked Cou-
rins, "does Russia really want
race?" "I believe she does he ad-
ded, "because she is not interested
in suicide. Russia is interested in
victory on the grounds that the U.
S. is not prepared for this kind of
a way out. The American policy for
settlement seems to be some other
way than to drop bombs "So long aa
we live in a world of anarchy, war
could occur stated Cousins.
"War could occur continued Cou-
sins, "because of an accident on eith-
er side's part. "As we have gone up
in power, we have gone down in con-
trol he added. "More and more peo-
ple now have the power to push a
button and destroy social and phys-
ical territory
"Unpreparedness in military and
in productiveness is an ever present
threat, but the military are doing
the best they can in the event of an
attack commented Cousin.
"We are underestimating Russia's
ability especially in production
aid Cousins. "Nothing can be as
dangerous as the same kind of think-
ing abomt Russia today, that we have
had in the past. Khrushchev said
Russia has a standard of living that
equals with the U.S.ridening the
streets, making lasting ears, enoug
to undersell the markets of the U.
S. in other countries in seven t
ten years stated Cousins.
"The new bomb power is another
tkiI to ur safety added Cousins.
"The latent bomb is now 100,000
tunes, as powerful as the bomb used
on Hiroshema, and its more power-
ful than t'e total of the bombs used
m gone years " "There is not a glass
of milk in this country that is not
effected by strodium 90, brought only
by nuclear testing he exclaimed.
"We now have a chance to make
America grow, to be good for our
"future gene rat idfes said Cjbosins.
"The time has come to end World
Law he added. "We should put a-
side fifty per cent of the armament
money to be spent on medicine and
curing sicknesses, or for scientific
learning proposed Cousins.
"We can begin our most promis-
ing generation, to cure the present
uncurable diseases through new sci-
entific devise said Cousins. "Civil-
ization begins through recognition
of human problems be added.
"World Law has been stressed by
two great presidents; Wilson and
Eisenhower. The problem is difficult
but insoluble. We are called upon to
think And he left us with this
thought, "War is an invention of

invent peace
College Slights Languages
By JASPER JONES
There should be a foreign lan-
guage requirement at ECC for stu-
dents working toward a B-S. degree.
Though there is already a 20 hour
foreign language requirement for
the A.B. students, the B.S. students,
who need foreign language studies:
have none.
To qualify for a good teaching
.osition, a person should have an aca-
uemic background at least compar-
able to that of a liberal arts student.
At present, there is no foreign lan-
guage entrance requirement at ECC,
and B.S. students may graduate
without a single hour of foreign
language.
A study of foreign language would
I valuable to the B. S. student in
many ways. A teacher should have
i very good understanding of the
English language, and studying a
foreign language is actually one of
the best ways to get it. Only by
studying a foreign language can one
know the problems of communica-
tion and making oneself understood.
A foreign language study is also
an excellent means of learning about
people of other lands. A successful
teacher of any subject should have
a good understanding of other coun-
tries and cultures in a day when
international understanding is an ur-
erit need.
The recent clamor for foreign lan-
guage in the grammar grades makes
the need for a B.S. foreign language
requirement even more obvious.
School superintendents want to hire
teachers who can give younger stu-
dents basic training in foreign lan-
guages. B. S. graduates wUl also
find that college and university grad-
uate schools are requiring an under-
graduate foreign language course
for students planning to begin their
graduate studies.
Though it is true that many state-
supported teachers' colleges do not
require foreign language courses for
graduation, EC should take the lead
and make foreign language a re-
quirement.
Until there is a definite foreign
language requirement for B.S. stu-
dents, those persons working for this
degree should take a language any-
way. As Nathan M. Pusey, Presi-
dent of Harvard University says,
"The basic reason for the study of
foreign languages remains unchang-
ed. It is simply that such effort
unlocks worlds of valuable human
experience from which one must
otherwise remain cut off. The less
deeply and widely one moves into
the world of letters, the more he is
condemned to live as a fragment of
his possible full self
Should Few Be Blamed
Recently nine girls were named the
culprits in an unusual case. Last
quarter during the final week of
classes at exactly midnight several
doors were slammed in one of the
girls dormitories. When the girls,
who believed confessing to this
small incident was the proper pro-
cedure, stood before several stern
young ladies, they were placed on
probation for the remainder of the
school year for "causing a riot
According to Webster's diction-
ary, a riot is a "wild and loose fes-
tivity Can slamming some doors be
termed as wild and loose? Were the
girls themselves being wild and
loose? Undoubtedly the Women's
Judiciary were in the dark as to what
this unusual conduct could be called
when they were preparing the min-
utes. This small incident turned in-
to a horrible dream for nine girls
and a comical conversation for the
iest of the student body.
Were the nine who admitted
"causing a riot" the only partici-
pants? Several girls were seen in the
act but were not involved in the con-
sequences because they were either
smarter than the others or just too
scared and did not confess.
Actually, as in most college inci-
dents, these girls are setting an ex-
ample for what could happen to any-
one trying the same little game. But
the moral of the story is "be smart
and dont admit to anything Prob-
ably the reason that thec girls are
paying for this childish trick is that
they were unprepared for the stem
and harsh outcome.
Too many cases worse than this
small one go untouched. Is it fair
to condemn only a few just because
catching the others would require
too much time and energy?

EC Representatives Attend
North State SGA Meet
Last weekend, December 4, 5, and
seven members of East Carolina's
Student Government Association at-
tended the Fall and Winter meeting
of the North State Student Govern-
ment Association, held at Elon Col-
lege.
The North State Student Govern-
ment Association is composed of nine
member schools. Those institutions
holding membership in the organiza-
tion are Atlantic Christian, East
Carolina, Lenoir Rhyne, Appalachian,
Western Carolina, Elon, High Point,
Guilford, and Catawba.
According to the East Carolina
delegation, the principal issue of the
meeting concerned the discussion and
the ratification of a new constitution,
proposed by delegates attending from
Catawba.
Another development in the As-
sociation proceedings concerned the
change in interpretation in the name
the North State Student Government
Association. The action, which in-
volved membership requirements,
provided that not only schools, which
were members of the North State
Conference, as defined athletically,
could be admitted as members of the
association, but also now, after the
passage of the revised constitution,
any senior college in North Carolina
could be admitted as members of
the North State S. G. A. by two-
thirds vote of the member schools.
The featured speaker of the Asso-
ciation meeting was the president of
Elon College, Earl Danielly. Mr. Da-
nielly, in speaking to the delegates,
said, "A good leader should know
Hmself where he is going before he
tries to lead people Mr. Danielly I
also told the representatives, "A
leader should define his goals and
aspirations to the people he expects
to follow him
East Carolina Student Government
President Dallas Wells, in summing
up the meeting, stated, "East Caro-
lina's delegates conducted themselves
as a credit to our college President
Wells also cited as one of the ac-
complishments of the meeting, the
appointment of a parliamentarian
as a permanent officer of the organ-
ization. "Under a new constitution,
for the first time, a parliamentarian
was appointed under the influence of
the East Carolina delegation. "We
should be honored that Barney West
of East Carolina was chosen to fill
this position
President Wells, in a concluding
statement, pointed out that plans
were underway to host the Spring
meeting of the North State Student
Government Association. Wells said
that the date for the meeting in the
spring had not yet been determined.

Sororities at East Carolina Col-
lege recently began preliminaries for
rush, scheduled for the second week

Seventy-nine rushees met with
nembers from the eight E.C. soror-
ities, Dean of women Ruth White,
and Betsy Hill, t resident of the Inter-
sorority Council, in Austin Au-
ditorium.
Dean White explained sorority
life in national and local levels.
. . to some college girls, soror-
ities are life's extras.
There are some sorority girls who
are social butterflies, but as a whole
sorority girls are intelligent, socia-
ble, and ready to help others com-
mented Dean White.
Bet.oy Hill officially welcomed the
T'rls present on behalf of the sor-
orities. Representatives introduced
' y Miss Hill spoke in regard to

stated Miss Hill.

pppears high this year and I am
looking forward to a most success-
ul rush she continued.
At the present, all sororities at
East Carolina College are nationally
affiliated.
Varsity Band Reorganizes
The Varsity Band, under the direc-
tion of Thomas Miller of the Music
Department, has again reorganized
for the Winter and Spring quarters.
Forty-eight musicians from many
departments make up the band, and
its nucleus is comprised of the march-
ing band. The primary purpose of
the band is recreational, to enable
instrumentalists who were members
of a high school band to continue to
play in a musical organization dur-
ing their college careers.
A concert is being planned by the
Varsity Band for the early part of
the Spring Quarter. "The lawn con-
cert last year was so successful, that
the band expects to repeat the same
sort of program this year com-
mented Mr. Miller.
Membership is still open to any
qualified musicians, and information
can be obtained from Herbert Carter
or Mr. Miller. Rehearsals are Tues-
day and Thusday afternoons, from
4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The ejection
of officers will be held in the near
future.

its monthly service tonight at 6:30

m. and will be conducted in Rawls
Building room 105.
At the December 2 club meeting,
plans were made to open a club li-
brary. Also a discussion was conduc-
ted . oncerning whether the purpose
of a psychology is chiefly to help
mankind or to report facts, as do the
sciences.
