The East Carolina Student Govern-
ed) t Association adopted a resolu-
tion Mon lay night to indicate student
attitude concerning possible admis-
i on to the Southern Conference.
The adopted resolution read:
"Resolved that we, the students
o! East Carolina College, realizing,
the necessity for East Carolinas
rrowth in the field of athletics, feel
that our college is ready to he a par-
ticipant of the Southern Conference.
"We students of East Carolina
hold the Southern Conference in high
esteem. Participation in this fine con-
ference would mean much to any
po'lege, especially East Carolina.
considering our size in relation to the
other schools of the North State
Conference, it seems to us a move
into the Southern Conference would
be a progressive one. Admission to
the Southern Conference would be n
honor of which East Carolina could
i iirhtly be proud.
"On behalf of the students of East
Carolina College, we, the members
of the Student Senate adopt the
resolution
East Carolina, with almost 4000
students on campus and 2000 exten-
sion students is larger than its next
largest competitor in the North State
Conference.
There are over 180 students parti-
cipating in varsity sports at ECC
this year and the college has an ath-
letic budget of $84,000.
Past records show the EC swim-
ming team to be the NAIA cham-
pions last year, for the second time
in three years and the Pirate base-
ball team won the North State Con-
ference last year with a 14-0 record.
SGA President Dallas Wells, in
commenting on the action, stated,
"Our game attendance would greatly
increase if East Carolina were to be
accepted in this fine conference
Elections Chairman James Trice
announced that all persons planning
to run for an SGA office should have
their names in by March 10, in order
to run in the March 22 elections.
Wells also told the Senate that
the "Bohunk" trophy which has been
the cause of much excitement and
near rioting at the basketball games
between Atlantic Christian and East
Carolina, will be handled in such a
way as to prevent this type conduct
in the future.
Wells also invited the students to
use the book exchange again this
quarter.
Wells commented "I heard many
students express their comments
that they had not heard about the
exchange program He also said that
the exchange will be open for one
week at the beginning of Spring
Quarter from 9 a.m. until 12 "noon
and from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m. and at
night hours to be announced later.

The .Publications Board, meeting I
February 11, elected Tom Jackson,
present Associate Editor of the East
Carolinian, to serve as Editor of the
campus newspaper for the term be-
ginning Spring Quarter, and terminat-
ing .at the close of the Winter Quar-
ter of 1961.
Jackson, from Godwin, N. C, and
a junicr English major at East Caro-
lina, will succeed Kathryn Johnson of
GreemriUe, who has served as editor
of the East Carolinian for the past
two years. Jackson was opposed for
the editorship by Pat Harvey, Man-
aging Editor of the student news-
paper.
The new editor is no stranger to
the area of newspaper work as far
as the East Carolinian is concerned,
for he has held many and varied
positions during his tenure of ser-
vice with the paper. Jackson began
as a proofreader his freshman year,
and eventually moved into the fields
' of news and feature writing, and has
also served as a columnist. At the
oeginning of Fall Quarter 1959, Jack-
son was appointed news editor, and
winter quarter was promoted to the
position of Associate Editor.
Concerning the future, Jackson has
many plans which he hopes to be
realized as he begins his new job.
"Primarily, it will be my aim to give
more and better coverage to campus j
news so as to give the residents of i
the campus community a better j
idea of what is going on at East
Carolina
There has been some speculation
that the East Carolinian might ex-
pand its operations into publishing
two papers per week. In regards to
this, Jackson stated, "I fully believe
:he campus needs a twice-weekly news-
paper, and we are planning to in-
vestigate the possibilities of such a
.i. gram, and if we can get the ade-
ifuate staff, money and support of
the students, we might be able to
begin a twiceveekly, but it will not
fore fall jeartes of next year
Jackson further stated, in relation
to the future of the East Carolinian
under bis leadership, "As for policy,
we want to give complete and ade-
quate coverage of all the news as
it happens. Recently the paper has
been criticized for its stand taken on
the cheating problem, and some tend
-w J.( hS N
newly elected "East Carolinian" editor.
to think ihat news of this type should
I e withheld. As long as I am editor,
if it happens, and we find out about
it, it will be printed
As far as his editorial policy is
concerned, Jackson declared, "We
hope, that through our editorials, we
can stimulate the students in the best
interests of the school, criticizing
when it is necessary, and giving
praise when it is merited.
Jackson has r.ot, as yet, named his
editorial staff for the coming year,
but he asserted that he would do so
in the immediate future.

the themes of this provocative novel.
By BETTY MAYNOR
The Plantation, published by Dou
ideday and Company in 1953, was
pmised by critics in leading periodic-
als throughout this country, and re-
eeived such a warm response from the
public that it became one of the na-
tion's best sellers.
In 1953, Mr. Pierce was awarded
the Sir Walter Raleigh Award, pre-
sented annually to the author of the
best work of fiction by a North Caro-
lina author. The Plantation was pub-
lished the following year in a French
edition. John Patrick, author of The
Hasty Heart, Teahouse of the August
Moon, and many other plays, holds
the dramatic rights for this first
work by Pierce.
Aide from writing these two
novels of southern plantation life,
Mr. Pierce has also written short
stories and articles for some of the
leading quarterly magazines. In the
February, 1957 issue of Holiday, he
hail a feature article .about North
Carolina, as part of a series, "State
Portraits
Since Mr. Pierce's favorite topic
in writing seems to be the southern
plantation, it is quite .appropriate that
he should live on the sight of a genu-
ine plantation. In the early 1950's, he
inherited a plantation near Bnfield,
and at that time he came back to
North Carolina to enjoy his inherit-
ance.
The large colonial house located on
this site was torn down and .a similar
but smaller replica rebuilt. Now Mr
Pierce enjoys week-ends on the
plantation and does much of his re
search and writing there.
Mr. .Pierce serves as advisor to the
campus literary magazine The Rebel,
tnd is according to the staff, a source
of invaluable guidance. In speaking
of the scope of The Rebel, Mr. Pierce
commented, "Conceivably, this maga-
zine could become an outlet for other
lerartmenta on campus, not primari-
ly the English deartment This is
erhaps best illustrated by the in
reased emphasis on the work in the
last issues of The Rebel.
Mr. Pierce also serves as advisor
to the Kappa Alpha Order on campus
Fie was a collegiate member of KA
at Duke University.
On April 30, the annual Arts Fes-
tival, sponsored by all of the Green
ville Book Clubs, will feature Mr.
Pierce's newest novel, On A Lone
some Porch. Guests and a number of
North Carolina authors from through
out the state will be present for the
luncheon honoring Mi. Pierce.
Mahlon Coles has announced an
(.pen house for the new textbook
store on February 22 from 7 to 9
p.m.
The schematic drawing (on page
three) indicates where the depart-
ments are located in the store. The
books are arranged for customer
self-selection and self-service. With-
in each department and in the price
molding on the front of the shelves
are tickets indicating the course num-
ber, the textbook title, and the in-
structor's name where known. The
textbooks covered by each individual
ticket will be located above the tic-
ket. Coles says that the books will
be above the tickets. While it is
thought that self-service means the
absence of sales clerk help, such is
really not the case, he commented.
"Every self-service store, and oitrs
is no exception, hopes with the same
sales force to serve those people bet-
ter who need help in finding text-
books, thus freeing the students who
can help themselves from waiting
in line. We will have student self-
help employees located in each de-
many students on this campus who
welcome the opportunity of being
jbie to brouse in the bookstore every
day, Coles said. The management en-
courages all of the students to do
this. The store is open every day
from 9 to 5 and on Saturday until
r.oon.
"We shall be most pleased to have
any comments about the store's serv-
ice or items that you would like to
see us carry. We are very pleased
and proud of the store and hope the
student body and faculty will find it
a fine new addition to our facilities
concluded Coles.
Transmitter Aids
Campus Reception
Recently a new AM carrier cur-
rent transmitter was installed at
WWWS campus radio by engineer
Charles Cowan. The new transmitter
partment of the store identified with j is supplying signals to the north
some article of dress so they will be! ampus in a much better manner
easily recognizable and any question
a customer might have may be di-
rected to them commented Coles.
The store has been designed to ac-
commodate four check stands during
the rush periods, instead of the one
in regular use, so that there will be
a minimum amount of waiting in line.
Students are encounaged by Coles
to leave any textbooks they might
own in their room when they come
to buy their textbooks for the quar-
ter unless they wish to sell them to
the supply store. The store buys text-
books the year round. The reason stu-
dents are asked not to bring their
books to the store is that the man-
agement cannot allow them to be
carried through the store for obvious
reasons, says Coles.
' One of those reasons is pilferage,
but the most important reason is so
as not to gum-up the cashiering ac-
tivity when the student is ready to
leave the store Coles commented.
The student bookstore is anxious
to buy as many good used books as
it can for there is always a demand
for them, Coles said. A place to sell
those books will be provided in the
north end of the new soda shop, just
outside the bookstore. Mrs. Wendell
Smiley will be on hand to help the
students prepare their checks just
outside the entrance to the bookstore.
New and used books will be shelved

WWWS is making arrangements
with the maintenance department to
install telephone type wires from the

tion will locate the transmitter taken
out of service. This will enable Jones
hall and the remaining housing quar-
ters on the south campus to receive
the college radio station's signal.
Wmk is scheduled to begin in the
near future. -
Station officials announced this
week that the winner of the "Name

Music Arts, is Glenn Bass. He will
seceive two LP albums for suggest-
ing the title "The Voice of Music
The recently installed UPI news
machine in the station has attracted
Mention throughout the campus.
WWWS broadcast news hourly be-
ginning at 3:00 and continuing until
12:00 midnight each day. Newscasts
cover the latest national, state and
local news. The new machine is being
financed by L and M cigarettes.
A special program, "Music for
Crammers" will be featured next
week beginning Wednesday evening
at 6:00 and will last until 4:00 each
morning until examinations are over.
The program will be one of uninter-

BA8T CAROLINIAN
'Un-Silent Generation'
Petition For Rights
As the Senate opened debate on a civil
rights bill this week, Negro students in sev-
eral North Carolina towns continued to pro-
test against discrimination at lunch counters.
Demonstrations began previously in
Greensboro when Negro students staged a
Sit-down demonstration at lunch counters
in chain variety stores where they could buy
readily and be served food while standing.
In subsequent days, the demonstrations mov-
ed to Winstxm-Salem, Charlotte, Durham,
and Fayetteville.
After 43 students who were picketing ill
front of stores in privately-owned Cameron
Village were arrested, the student group end-
ed demonstrations there.
Last week-end the protest movement
spread to Harlem in New York City, where
Negro and white pickets paraded m front of
two Woolworth stores and an S. H. Kress
store Leaflets were passed out calling "upon
the people of East Harlem to protest by re-
fusing to patronize a chain store that makes
money from minority groups in the North
while' refusing to serve them in the South.
Calmly and quietly, a young group of
students, the beginning of a new, "un-silent
generation' began a move to petition for
rightsrights which should come naturally
to every American citizen. Though jeered
at and called names, these young Americans
stuck fast. The only suggestion of violence
came from the surrounding white hecklers.
We cannot argue that the students were
within their legal rights when they tres-
passed" by "invading private property, but
we do say that it is a very unsound policy
which encourages Negroes to buy at every
counter in a store but one. It is a very un-
sound policy which says that people with
very dark skin may be served food only so
long as they stand. As another paper has
pointed out, this is like cordially inviting a
guest to one's house, but definitely not to
one's table.
It should be mentioned that the students
have protested about not being served food
only at stores where they are otherwise
welcome. Most of the stores at which the
demonstrations were conducted have a large
percentage of Negro trade.
Because in the past the courts in this
state have held that a businessman could
serve what customers he pleased, there is no
law in North Carolina ordering the segrega-
tion of lunch counters. As we mentioned be-
fore, in this case the customers were cor-
dially invited to be served . . . that is unless
they wanted to be served a certain item sit-
ting down.
In a sense, these groups of students are
pioneers. They are doing something which
their parents would never have even dared
to think about doing. Some people argue
that these students are destroying a favor-
able race relationship. We say that the pres-
ent race relationship cannot be called favor-
able. It needs to be torn down and another
one built up in its place. Perhaps the stu-
dents are not going about the correction of
their problem in the right way. But at least
they are not sitting still and keeping quiet
as their parents did. If it turns out that they
have made a wrong move, we are sure they
will find a better way and forge ahead as
Americans have throughout U. S. history.

Student Teacher S
We have a friend who is counting
the days and hours on his ragged
and chewed-up fingers. His hair is
growing slightly sparce in places,
iind in some spots he is even getting
a little gray.
When you talk to him, he mumbles
and you can't understand what he
says. ,and it really doesn't matter
anyway, because he is unaware that
he is speaking at all,
When he does speak clearly and
sensibly, occasionally his voice ele-
vates itself to a high pitch, and he
waves his arms as though he were
speaking in Independence Hall on
some subject of the utmost signifi-
cance.
Perhaps you're wondering about
this individual, and why he is the
way he is. Well, it's simple . . . he's
student teaching this quarter.

translated by E. Fitzgerald.
Perhaps one of the vital assets that
many of us are constantly striving
to attain . . . maturity, has become
reality for the fraternity system
at East Carolina.
The fraternities here have long
been in need of a governing body,
made up of member fraternities,
equally represented, that would oper-
ate effectively, and for the better-
ment of the system as a whole
through cooperative efforts.
There has been such a body exist-
ing for the past two years, but their
power to govern, regulate and co-
operate has appeared to be as the
balloon resting on a bed of nails . . .
it always pops before it can reach
its potential.
Today, the Interfraternity Council
shows itself as an organization that
can govern; and when it speaks,
people that come in contact with it
listen to what it has to say, and abide
by its judgment.
It's been a long hard road, but
maybe they've finally arrived . . .

To the Editor:
Since we are presently attempting
to understand our position as to the
course of action to following regard-
ing cheating, 1 would like to contri-
bute to this attempt from a Chap-
lain's viewpoint.
Our first course of action is to
realize that now is not the time or
place to decide if this college, or any
college, is actually gripped by the
plague of cheating to the degree that
the public might think. Now is the
time and place to understand the
actual mechanism of East Carolina
College's concept of values. It is the
concept of values which produces
cheating (that surface symptom of
the intra-working of the student
mind).
Now is the time to inspect the
value concept of the community.
The college community is composed
of two main groups the learners
and the teachers. If a college has
the problem of cheating, it is a re-
flection of the value concepts of the
entire community. The value con-
cept of the community is dependent
on the value the community places
on what it is doing. "Doing for a
college community, is learning. Cheat-
ing in a college community sympto-
mizes the placing of little value of
learning.
In such a situation it is impossible
to find the cource of cheating in any
one group. The cource of cheating is
essentially each group's value con-
cept of the other. The value the
faculty places on learning, the com-
munity, the student, and the course
tit hand will be reflected in the value
placed on the course at hand, the
teacher, the community, and learn-
ing by the student. If the faculty
places a low value on learning, then
both the student with value concepts
and the student without will reflect
this in a high incidence of cheating.
If the faculty places a high value
on learning, then the student with
value concepts will respond favor-
ably in a mature attitude towards the
way in which he is to learn. But in
spite of all striving for a high value
concept, there will inevitably be the
student who will cheat under any cir-
cumstances.
Therefore, I contribute two sug-
gestions to the community: Improve
our eradication system to remove
those few who will cheat under all
circumstances. Realize that no sys-
tem can properly come into being
until we as a community have placed
the very highest value on learning.
The SGA committee are to be com-
mended for their searching in this
area of our college community. They
must realize that they are working
in the area of values. And value con-
cepts always indicate the state of
health of the community. The student
can do his part by responding to the
value placed on learning by the
faculty. The faculty can do their part
by placing a high value on learning.
The Rev. Richard N. Ottaway
Episcopal College Chaplain
a recent
All the News
and Much,
Much More) dealt mthjrbrieflywith
the problem of identifying races
he 'newspapers. The anonymo,
author of the editorial ma,r, amed
that Negroes are only amphfyinj
their terrific inferiority complex by
trying to ban every mentioi,i of the
word "Negro" in conjunction with any
crime of any happening not of the
most favorable connotation.
For vears, of course, it has been
taboo to have Negro actors portray-
ing any villanous role in a Win or
television show for fear of complaint
by the N.A.A.C.P. or C.O.R.E. or
Heaven knows what else. It is per
fectly all right, however, for a Ne-
gro to portray a veritable saint.
(This attitude has created that
famous stereotype, the Deeply Re-
ligious Negro, who crops up in movie
after movie, T.V. show after T.V.
show).
This childish effort on the part
of misled Negro leaders to camou-
flage every trace of badness asso-
ciated with Negroes has been super-
seded by an attempt to purge the
idea that there is, or ever has been,
any prejudice against the Negro.
Modern publishers of music have
deemed it "permissable" to rummage
through all of Stephen Foster's won-
derful songs and drop every single
mention of "darkies" or black peo-
ple, as if there had been no Negroes
in the South before 1865 This is
rather like pouring through Sinclair
Lewis' Elmer Gantry and deleting
every remark about the Baptists.
To top this, the most recent D'Oily
Carte Company recordings of the Gil-
bert and Sullivan operettas made in
England for American consumption
have done the same thing. They have
dropped all of the classic references
to "niggers" and "pickaninnies"
which were all part of the Victorian
attitude of complete and unchange-
able superiority of the English. One
supposes that the Japanese should
ask the D'Oily Carte Company to stop
performing the Mikado!
It is not possible for members of
different races to completely ignore
the fact that there are different and
lairly distinct races. If the Negro
wishes to rise above his "second
class citizenship he will not do it
by hiding perfectly obvious facts. He
will never create the impression that
the Negroes are an innocent, hapless
minority, ruled and exploited by the
discriminating, prejudiced, and bi-
goted majority of whites.

Traveling Abroad This Summer?
By BETTY MAYNOR
College students who would like to
travel abroad during the summer of
I960 will have many opportunities to
choose from various tours. Last year
more than 65,000 U.S. students in
their teens and twenties spent their
summers out of the country.
Students who can go will need be-
tween $800 to $1700, depending upon
the type of tour they choose. Types
of tours include: exploring a num-

special summer courses planned for
English-speaking students. This plan

Another type of tour, which re-
quires hard work for the student is
the work camp, hundreds of which
are operated in all parts of the world
many under religious or political
auspices.
Now after seeing the broad classi-
fications of tours, the student should
remember this advice offered by the

All short story fans who neglected to
see David Wayne and Edward G. Robinson
in "The Devil and Daniel Webster" (Rexall

the impression that the devil had bought
hoards of souls in exchange for material
possessions, which means that Stephen Vin-

any other period.
The Playhouse had try outs recently

Tryouts for this play will begin soon. Watch

IFC Appears Chaotic I S
By TOM JACKSON
The Interfraternity Council's
against one of the campus social fraternity
last week is to be commended. It app
the council has handled a very delicate situ
ation in a most graceful manner.
The evidence presented at the council
meeting indicated that the accused were b

However, their actions were out of order
and they have hurt the campus fraternity
system a great deal through unfavorable
publicity.
We recall another incident which x.
cured in the wake of the 1957 homecoming
festivities. The same fraternity had the same
trouble then. Is this group letting this be-
come a habit or are they just unfortu-
nate enough to be the ones caught
At last week's IFC meeting we ma
several interesting observations. For a group
of would-be leaders the IF iay(i jg;
most degenerate form of pariimentary pro-
cedure that we have yet witnessed Their re-
sults merit praise, but their procedure is a
joke. Some of them act as if they think Ro-
bert's Rules of Order is a textbook on how to
read a menu.
While we have no objections to profan-
ity where it is needed, some of the group ap-
pear to be trying to prove they are the most
fluent in this area of speech. Profane lan-
guage was loud and plemtiful at the meeting.
The meeting resembled an informal buli
session during which the participants chat-
ted, threatened, cursed, and joked ;Cr
other.
Organization and coherent division c:
labor was at an all time low. A" g
the meeting was a sort of laughing matter.

We hope this organization will realize
its position and understand that it can
operate in a limited capacity under tl -
tern. We also hope the college Panhellenic
Council will take heed and not let its opera-
tion decline to this level.
We're still amazed that a decision of
any kind could come from the IFC under
their present operating procedure. When
think of their able handling of the recent
situation, wre are astounded.

EC Grad Obtains
Physics Supplies
Dr. Charles W. Reynolds, director
of the Department of Science, has
announced that the department has
received a gift of electronic compon-
ent parts .and assemblies from the
Western Electric Company.
The gift was obtained through
the efforts of Edward Milton Foley
of Winston-Salem, alumnus of the
college, and Dr. Marshall Helms, pro-
fessor of physics. Dr. Helms states
that the value of the gift is over $1
000. Items included were selected
from company offerings as being
useful in the physics programs at
last Carolina College.
Mr. Foley, a native of Greenville,
is ;i member of the Personnel Office
of the Winston-Salem plant of West-
ern Electric. At East Carolina Col-
lege he carried a major in mathe-
matics and a minor in science.
Mr. Foley says that when he be-
came aware of the surplus electronic
supplies in the Winston-Salem plant,
he thought immediately of its poten-
tial usefulness in the physics depart-
ment, where he had observed much
use of such material. He then found
that other Western Electric plants
olso had surpluses of electronic
equipment and that the Company had
a procedure for making gifts to col-
leges.
College Organizes

Flu Cases Continue
At. East Carolina
News In Brief
There seems to be no apparent let-
up in the number of flu cases that
are sweeping the East Carolina cam-
pus and most of eastern North Caro-
lina, according to personnel at the
local infirmary.
However, they are quick to add
that the menace has not really reach-
ed epidemic stages. At present there
are some twenty-six students in the
infirmary, and ajnotiher fifteen or
wenty either in the dormitories or
at home suffering from the flu virus
or upper respiratory infection.
The staff at the infirmary report
that they have their hands full with
the flow of new cases that come in al-
most daily. Two private-duty nurses
have been called in to assist with
the overcrowded situation.
"If students would get enough rest
and keep from exposing themselves
to colds, the spread of the infection
could be curbed declare the nurses.
"The germ is in the air, and if re-
sistance is kept down by lack of
proper rest and sleep, it is quite
easy to pick up
The infirmary advises students to
force liquids, and avoid exposure and
exertion if they do not wish to coun-
teract the virus. With students and
doctors working together, each do-
ing his part, our campus can soon be
free of this unwanted intruder, they
say.

CU OPEN EVERY NIGHT
The College Union will be open
every night except nights when the
Entertainment Committee has sched-
uled events in Wright Auditorium,
Dean Robert Holt announces.
The only reason that the Union
will not be open on nights when
there is entertainment is that the
noise carries upstairs to the audi-
torium, he says.
.Previously the College Union and
soda shop has not been open on
nights when there is a ball game on
campua. However after February
20, both will be open on ball game
rights.
The suggestion for keeping the
I'nion open came as a result of the
recent Dean's Advisory Council Meet-
ing. Charles Dyson, SGA treasurer,
told the Council that he thought that
the campus was now large enough to
merit the Union's staying open to
matter how many other events were
scheduled.

Pirate Footballers Meet Alumni Innnuliur
y
A bevy of former East Carolina
football stars will don the Purple and
Gold once again Saturday afternoon
in the annual Alumni Varsity clash,
slated to begin at 2:00 in College
Staduim.
Listing a squad of 33, the visiting
Alumni are given its best chance of
gaining victory number one in the
four year series. The Varsity has
been able to claim easy victories in
the past.
Heading the field of returning
stats will be such All-Conference se-
lections as Dick Cherry, Bobby Perry,
Ray Pennington, and Lou Hallow.
They are joined by a couple of recent
laurel-reaping stars, Ed Emory, and
James Speight, and Lynn Barnett.
Joining the latter three from the
1968 list of graduates will be Bill
Cain, Howanl Beale, Ralph gearing,
C. J. Hrowne. WVilkie HanfoTd, "Dav-
id Thomas, Johnny Wikes, James
Cordon. George Turner, and Jerry
Carpenter.
Former linemen returning besides
the above-mentioned include Jerry
Brooks and Charlie Smitha duo of
rugged tackles, Dick Monds. Char-
lie Dyson. Rubba Mathews. Joe Hol-
mes, Shelly West. Jerry Warren, Gor-
don Peoples, and John Stauffer.
Backs to bolster the Alumni squad
include Gary Mattocks, acting coach,
Lee Atkinson, Charlie Bishop, Bob
Maynard, Tommy N.ash and Jack
Beale.
The Varsity squad, feeling a defi-
nite loss within its ranks due to the
large graduation toll, will be putting
the wraps on winter drills which have
been underway since early January.
.All-Conference Glenn Bass heads
the returning backs in the Pirate
fold. Other returnees include Tommy
Matthews, Sonny Bay singer, Mac
Thacker, Billy Strickland, and Mac
Roebuck.
Quarterback is wide open with four
currently battling for the vacant
spot. Bert Stafford and Stuart Hol-
land, a couple of seniors, have the
inside track over yearlings Dan Rouse
and Gary Parker.
Henry Kwiatkowaki, Chuck Gor-
don, Wayne Davis, Jones Lockerman,
Vernon (Bruno) Davis, and Henry
Vanaant head a shallow group of ex-
lerienced linemen.
Lob Gregson, David Barnes, Bobby
Bumgardner, and Clayton Piland are
jusi a few other EC linemen sched-
uled to get plenty of action.
A glance at the poop sheet gives
the favorites role to the visiting
Alumni but once again the tale of
i lit ion will play a large part in the
final outcome. Both teams have been
anxiously awaiting the game which

East Carolina continued its upward
surge in the North State Conference
basketball chase by downing Cataw-
ba, 73-71, in Salisbury last Wednes-
day and romping Elon, 88-55, here
Monday afternoon.
Ike Riddick merged ahead of High
Point's Danny Sewell in the confer-
ence scoring parade, leading the Pi-
rates over a pesky Catawba band
last Wednesday evening. Riddick
scored 27 points for scoring honors,
leaving him with a 24.7 scoring av-
t rage for 20 games.
In the Catawba game, East Caro-
lina had to stifle a last half rally by
the Indians before wrapping up its
sixth consecutive victory. Don Smith,
Lacy West, and Cotton Clayton join-
ed Riddick in the double figures.
Smith tallied 15, Clayton 13, and
West 11.
In a game that was postponed Sat-
urday night, East Carolina completed
outclassed visiting Elon to the tune
of 88-55 Monday afternoon before
a packed house in Memorial Gymna-
sium.
Playing without Captain Ike Rid-
dick, the ECC machine added a new
part and continued to work with
precision. Charlie Lewis stepped into
the guard slot, left vacant by Rid-
dick, and pumped in 14 points.
Lacy West led the first half out-
burst that buried the Christians for
good. By intermission it was 43-23
and Elon was never able to give ECC

West, with 15, and Lewis, with 14,
led the East Carolina scoring. Benny
Bowes had 13 and Cotton Clayton 11.
Although the win pushed ECC into
a three-way tie for first place in the
conference, it also proved damaging.
Don Smith, junior forward, broke a
finger in a fall and his playing status
for the rest of the season is ques-
tionable.
The 88 points against Elon gave
BCC a team average of 80.0 for 21
pames. Coach Earl Smith's com-
n.and has a conference mark of 10-4
and is 15-6 over-all.

student on the office door of the un-
iversity president: "This office clos-

over Elon on Monday. Riddick, who
had not missed ball game all season,
was forced to the sideline in the
Christian encounter due to the flu.
The Greenville native is currently
the number one scorer in the North
State Conference with a 24.7 scor-
ing average for 20 games. Riddick
nas the best shooting average of the
starting Pirate five, hitting at a 53r's
clip. The five foot eleven inch senior
guard has more than doubled his
scoring average over last year. He
hit 11 points per game last season.
Ike is the play maker on the Buc
quint. He sets up the offensive ac-
tion, as well as being a very capable
defensive performer. Along with tak-
ing over the leadership problems,
Riddick was chosen as captain of the
Pirate hardwoodmen for the 1959-60
season. Riddick hit his scoring peak
against Pfeiffer College when he
racked up a total of 38 points.
None of the Buc opponents have
been able to hold him out of the
double figure column. Riddick gets
the majority of his points on the fast
break where he has thrilled mny
crowds with his driving layup3. The
Greenvillite is very dangerous from
the outside too. His jump shot is one
of the most feared in the conference.
Few will argue with the fact that
Riddick has been a mainstay in the
Pirates successful season. His shoes
will undoubtedly be hard to fill next
year.
Coach Smith has nothing but praise
lor the senior captain. "As far as
I'm concerned, Riddick has led us to
where we are now says Smith.
