Lattimore Expresses Views
On McCarthy, World Affairs
Holt Issues Notice Stopping Classes On
Austin Third Floor As Safety Measure
According to a notice issued Mon-
day by Dean of Instruction, Robert
L. Holt, classes will no longer be as-
signed to the third floor of Austin
Building. This became effective Mon-
day. March 21.
Dr. Holt's notice, stated "In the
interest of safety and the welfare
of East Carolina College students,
classes will no longer be assigned
to the third floor of Austin Building,
which is considered dangerous as a
notential fire hazard
The notice further said that at
the earliest possible time when space
became available, faculty offices on
third floor of Austin would be re-
located.
Dr. Leo W. Jenkins, speaking in
i elation to the suspension of classes
on the third floor of Austin, stated,
"We want to close off the entire
third floor completely as far as we
can. No classes will be held there
at all
Dr. Jenkins further said that the
administration was trying to find
offices for the faculty members
whose offices are located on the
third floor, and as soon as that could
be taken care of, the third floor
would be closed off completely.
"Joseph McCarthy led a complete-
ly amoral political life Owen Latti-
more, professor of political science at
the Johns Hopkins University, told
an audience of ECC students and
faculty early this week.
Mr. Lattimore appeared on the cam-
pus this week under the sponsorship
f the Danforth Project in lectures
preliminary to the opening of East
Carolina's Seventh Annual World
Affairs Institute.
In a lecture on the McCarthy Hear-
ings Monday morning, Lattimore ex-
plained the reason for the political
atmosphere of the McCarthy period.
The outcome of the World War dis-
appointed Americans who had pour-
ed their efforts into making a better
world" said Lattimore. He also dis-
cussed the anti-Democratic (Party)
feelings which added to the post-war
'Msillusionment and helped to create
a general attitude of intense anti-
Communism.
Lattimore showed that this was an
idea! period for McCarthy to rise to
an influential position in Congress.
Though Lattimore strongly criticiz-
ed the methods used by the Congres-
sional Committee during the McCar-
thy Hearings, he stated that "the
congressional committee is an abso-
lute necessity
In discussing Communist China,
Lattimore emphasized the "positive
development" of nationalism in China.
He stated that ideas of nationalism
were stirring in Asia even before
World War I. Though these ideas
grew stronger after this period he
explained, nationalist movement in
Asia did not succeed because none of
them was strong enough to overthrow
alien rule. "Though China was in-
vaded martially and economically
many times, nationalism was never
stifled" he added.
Lattimore asserted that Japan as

Japan caused Asian countries to for-
get the prestigious factors of being
part of a European empire, he ex-
plained.
Lattimore expressed doubt of an
impending schism between Commun-
ist China and Soviet Russia. He dis-
counted the opinion expressed by
American journalists who predict
such a political break between the
two socialist countries. "Though there
may be small problems because of
their different states of development
there will be no open conflict he
added.

Letters To The Editor
Professor Congratulates Student Body
Dear Editor:
The performance by the Pour
Freshmen in Wright Auditorium on
Saturday was rewarding to me in at
least two ways. First, I was impress-
ed with the music. In addition to be-
ing artistically performed it was en-
joyable and listenable as well. Second,
I was impressed with the audience.
I was pleased to see Wright Audit-
orium literally packed on a Saturday
afternoon with well-dressed college
students. Even the beards didn't look
so bad over neat shirts, ties, and
coats!
This brings me to the point of
this letter. As a faculty member,
1 should like to congratulate the
members of the student body on their
Among other changes much needed at
East Carolina is a revised regulation on
class attendance. Under the present system
quality points are deducted when a student
takes more cuts than are designated for a
particular course regardless of the quantity
or quality of work he does.
This program fails to recognize three of
the more outstanding factors in education.
First of all it provides no reward for
individual initiative. If a student is capable
of doing the required work in a given course
and becomes familiar enough with the mater-
ial to satisfy the professor of the course,
there is no point in stipulating that he must appearance and conduct at this per-
attend'class. As long as 1 student learns, it formance. It made me proud to be
does not matter where. It has been our ex-
perience that some classrooms retard learn-
ing more than they speed it, although these
cases are rare. However, if a case like this
should occur, the student should not be
taxed for using his time more effectively.
Secondly, As we have already stated,
most classes aid learning. The student who
habitually cuts these classes is an undesir-
able from the beginning. By cutting the class
and participating half-heartedly he holds
back the rest of the class and slows up the
progress of the other students. This type
student attends class only because he knows
he must. His intellectual attitude is one ot
apathy and all he wants is to just scrape by.
Yet the atmosphere created by required class
attendance not only allows this type student,
it encourages it by giving a false sense of
self satisfaction to those v ho think they are
learning if they attend the required classes.
Last of all this system of required at-
tendance is ridiculous from this standpoint:
All told, and not counting time and effort,
each student invests at least five hundred
dollars each quarter to attend college (tak-
ing into consideration the money he would
be earning if he were working full time).
To spend this much money for a product
and then not utilize it is stupid. Dr. George
Pasti summed it up once when he said, "A
student who is given a free class cut should
to the registrar and demand some of ms
uition back
If a persi enters a restaurant and buys
a meal, it is absurd to assume the cook will
be expected to stand over him and force him
to eat it.
By initiating an unlimited cut system
the college will improve the quality of its
student body.
Students who do not wish to learn and
who go to class only because they have to
will be allowed to sleep all day if they so
re. No quality points will be deducted
.or cuts. However, these students will know
the difference at the end of the quarter. The
final exams will tell the story.
Those students who have no desire to
learn and no initiative to study will flunk.
As a result they will either change their
habits or flunk out entirely. This atmos-
phere of "produce or get out" will separate
the sheep from the goats and finally result
in a higher level student body.
In addition to this, those students who
have an earnest desire to learn will be given
more opportunity to do so and the space
vacated by the flunk outs will be available
for more earnest students.
The final results would be a much im-
proved intellectual atmosphere and a higher
grade student body on campus.
Freshmen should not be allowed to par-
ticipate in this program however, because
they have not yet had time to mature intel-
lectuallv and otherwise. The present program
is satisfactory for them. Sophomores could
have unlimited cuts if they had already dem-
onstrated their desires by getting and keep-
ing a grade average of three.
But by the time a student becomes a
junior he should be smart enough to be put
on his own. If he fails to produce, send him
home . . . he's only in the way here.
of the above and, by surreptious im-
plications and untruths, attempted to
convince his readers that his state-
ments are the truths.
Finally, we give Mr. Walker credit
for the possession of a certain amount
of creative ability in the field of fic-
tion. However, we feel that he should
refrain from creativity while at-
tempting to present the facts.
Sincerely,
Fred D. Ragan

Dear Editor,
"Indictment by Slander It seems
that the East Carolinian has now
reached the depth of the McOarthian
Press of another decade. Mr. Walker's
indictment of the honor and integrity
of the organized veterans on this
campus is a direct collision with fact.
That is: he is either ill-informed or
a pusillanimous liar.
Tt is suggested that Mr. Walker
make an investigation of three sig-
nificant points mentioned in his article
of March 17th: the use of the verb
"ordered "ice cream cones and
the source of the flowers that was
mentioned in the article. To supple-
ment what we are sure will be a
thorough investigation by Mr. Wal-
ker, we sincerely implore the admin-
istration to investigate the charge of
defacing public property by the vet-
erans of this campus.
Since the East Carolinian is the
"voice of the students we recom-
mend the findings of the subsequent
investigations be published in this
paper. Also we recommend that ap-
propriate disciplinary action be taken
apunst any individuals indicted by
(vidence, not slander.
Further, it would seem that Mr.
Walker has finally composed himself
enough to mention that campaign of
a year ago. In mentioning this at this
late date, Mr. Walker has done one of
three things: Forgotten the real
facts of the campaign; never known
those facts; or a combination of one

Among the foreign exchange stu-
dents at East Carolina this year is
Hideo Kusama, who recently Arrived
in the U.S. from Japan.
Hidesaburo (his friends call him
"Hiedo" which is pronounced MHi-
day-o") arrived in Greensboro Janu-
ary 21 for a visit with Mr. and Mrs.
Lawrence Watts before enrolling for
the Spring quarter at ECC.
When he left Japan, January 9, on
his birthday some 150 friends and re-
latives gathered to see him off. He
is the first person from his home
town to go outside Japan.
He's in this country on a three-
year visa to study journalism, poli-
tical science and "international re-
lations in general He already holds
a degree in English and American
Literature from Aoyana Gakuin Uni-
versity in Tokyo, a Protestant school.
While there he was editor of the col-
lege newspaper, which is published in
English. Hiedo plans to write a series
of articles for the East Carolinian,
comparing some of the traditions and
customs of Japan with America.
"As soon as I am able to polish my
English and get used to American
customs said Hideo, "I plan to en-
ter graduate school at the University
of North Carolina
Kusama is from "a little country
town" of almost 20,000, about 100
miles from Tokyo. It was there that
Japanese suicide pilots trained dur-
ing World War II.
He vividly remembers the war
even though he was only eight years
ild when it ended. "A most fearful
time he recalls, when American
planes bombarded the town's naval
base "many times
His own home remained intact,
but food was hard to come by and
the town was flooded with Japanese
and shelter.
He looks back on the war now as
a "foolish mistake
"We were never given a true pic-
ture of the world situation. We knew
only a worW dominated by military
leaders
Hideo has a crew cut, wears horn-
rimmed glasses and looks like a mid-
dleweight wrestler who is an intellec-
tual. Appearances and the facts are
not far apart in his case. In the field
of judo he has attained the black belt,
shich is given on'y to expert judo
wrestlers. He is an expert in flower
arrangement, and the Japanese tea
ceremony, as well.
Kuaama's parents have a small ki-
mono factory in Japan. He has two
brothers and three sisters. His full
name, Hidesaburo, means "excellent
No. 3 son
He is the only Christian in his home
town. His people are Buddhists.

a Christian he said. It was while he
was a sophomore in high school that

he first heard of Christianity through
a radio program sponsored by the
United Churches of Japan, a Protest-
ant organization. He wrote for a Bible,
read it, and decided to become a
Christian.
In the summer of 1956 he met
Mrs. Watts who was attending an in-
ternational Christian work camp in
Osaka, Japan. He told her that he
hoped to go to the U.S. some day to
study.
Mrs. Watts did not forget the
young Japanese who believed that
"all men are brothers" and it was
with the help of Mr. and Mrs. Watts
and Greensboro's West Market Street
Methodist Church that he was finally
able to come to this country. He is
now staying with Mr. and Mrs. Her-
bert Waldrop, Mrs. Watts' parents.
When he goes back to Japan, he plans
to teach for a while and then enter
the government.
Japan since World War II has be-
come a democratic nation, but Hideo
said democracy has created a dynamic
society that the old feudal Japanese
leligions, Buddhism and Shintoism
are not capable of guiding.
It was rather interesting to watch the
expressions on various faces as the Four

Host Yale Next Week
By LEONARD LAO
The East Carolina baseball team out a double.
will have four games under their
belts when they play host to Yale
University of the Ivy League next
Monday and Tuesday.
Coach Jim Mallory's ball club drop-
ped a pair to Camp Lejeune last
week-end, and were scheduled to
open their home season against
Springfield College with a double-
header taking place yesterday and
today. The Springfield club is cur-
rently at Camp Lejeune and have
ajrreed to play the Bucs, according
to Mallory.
The Pirate tutor was not down in
the dumps over his team's loss to
iCamp Lejeune. In fact, Mallory was
very well pleased with his club's
showing. "We hit the ball much bet-
ter than we had hoped for with only
two days of outdoor practice said
the EC coach. The Pirates banged
out 10 hits for a total of 12 runs in
the opener, but still lost on the Mar-
ines' 14 hits and 14 runs.
Leading the Bucs at the plate was
left fielder Gary Pierce, the batting
leader in the conference last year.
The husky hitter made a day of it at
Lejeune banging out a home run and
two doubles. His homer came on his
first trip to the plate with two men
on. It was a 420 foot drive that clear-
ed the centerfield fence with room to
spare. Later in the game Pierce slash-
ed a double and added another in the
second contest.
Other extra base hits for the Pi-
rates were credited to Hubert Caste-
loe and Jim Martin, with two hits
apiece, and Glenn Bass, who banged
Things looked as though they were
going to be different in the second
game when back-to-back doubles were
slammed out by Wally Cockrell and
Jim Martin to produce a run in the
first inning, but the rally was short-
'ived. The Marines bounced back
with three runs in the third and fifth
frames to take a 6-1 lead. Another
EC rally fell short in the sixth frame,
with the Bucs adding three more tal-
lies. Again the Lejeune hitters came
back to add a pair of insurance runs
in the last half of the sixth.
The Pirate camp is not bitter over
the losses, for in last year's game
with Camp Lejeune the Bucs were
able to push only one run for their
afternoon's effort. The Marine boys
have no record to laugh at either.
They were All-Marine champions last
season, posting a 97-20 won-lost rec-
ord.

HAIL TO THE DEAN!
Tbday let us examine that much maligned, widely misunder-
stood, grossly overworked, wholly dedicated campus figure
the dean.
The dean (from the Latin deanereto expel) is not, as many
think, primarily a disciplinary officer. He is a counselor and
guide, a haven and refuge for the troubled student. The dean
(from the Greek deanosto skewer) is characterized chiefly by
sympathy, wisdom, patience, forbearance, and a fondness for
homely pleasures like barn-raisings, gruel, spelldowns, and
Marlboro Cigarettes. The dean (from the German deangemacht
to poop a party) is fond of Marlboros for the same reason that
all men of good will are fond of Marlborosbecause Marlboro
is an honest cigarette. Those better makin's are honestly better,
honestly aged to the peak of perfection, honestly blended for
the best of all possible flavors. The filter honestly filters.
Marlboro honestly comes in two different containersa soft
pack which is honestly soft, and a flip-top box which honestly
flips. You too will flip when next you try an honest Marlboro,
which, one honestly hopes, will be soon.
But I digress. We were learning how a dean helps under-
graduates. To illustrate, let us take a typical case from the files
of Dean Sof the University of Y (Oh, why
be so mysterious? The dean's name is Sigafoos and the Univer-
sity is Yutah.)
W &H? && ikAi&.
Wise, kindly Dean Sigafoos was visited one day by a fresh-
named Walter Aguincourt who came to ask permission to
marry one Emma Blenheim, his dormitory laundress. To the
dean the marriage seemed ill-advised, for Walter was only 18
and Emma was 91. Walter agreed, but said he felt obligated to
go through with it because Emma had invested her life savings
in a transparent rain hood to protect her from the mist at
Niagara Fails where they planned to spend their honeymoon.
What use, asked Walter, would the poor woman have for a rain
hood in Yutah? The wise, kindly dean pondered briefly and
came up with an answer: let Walter punch holes in the back of
Emma's steam iron; with steam billowing back at the old lady,
she would find a rain hood very usefulpossibly even essential.
Whimpering with gratitude, Walter kissed the dean's Phi
Beta Kappa key and hastened away to follow his advice which,
it pleasures me to report, solved matters brilliantly.
Today Emma is a happy womansinging lustily, wearing her
rain hood, eating soft-center chocolates, and ironing clothes
twice as happy, to be candid, than if she had married Walter.
And Walter? He is happy too. Freed from his liaison with
Emma, he married a girl much nearer his own ageAgnes
Yucca, 72. Walter is now the proud fatherstepfather, to be
perfectly accurateof three fine healthy boys from Agnes's first
marriageEverett, 38; Willem, 43; and Irving, 55and when
Walter put the boys in Eton collars and takes them for a stroll
in the park on Sunday afternoons, you may be sure there is not
a dry eye in YutahAnd Dean Sigafoos? He too is happy
happy to spend long, tiring days in his little office, giving counsel
without stint and without complaint, doing his bit to set the
feet of his charges on the path to a brighter

Close Hatch Gives
Winners A Scare
Charles Holliday .and Norman Kil-
patrick won the closest final match
of the year when they won the Spring
Quarter Men's Doubles Table Tennis
Tournament from Albert Davis and
Bobby Hutchins, in play held in the
College Union March 15.
Holliday-Kilpatrick squeezed out a
tense win over Davis-Hutchins by
the scores of 19-21, 21-13, and 23-21,
after the sharply angled shots of
Hutchins, and the forehand drives of
Davis had given them the first game
of the match.
The second game was won by the
forehand drives of Holliday, and the
backhand drives of Kilpatrick, and
had given Holliday-Kilpatrick an 18-
12 load in the final game, when the
defensive play of the Davis-Hutchins
duo allowed them to come back to tie
the score at 20-aU. At this point the
spin serves and forehand drives of
the winners allowed them to win the
three vital points needed for the
championship.
Many good matches were produced
during this tournament, and good
competition resulted from the event
being held on a double elimination
basis.
Under this system Davis-Hutchins
had lost an earlier match to Holliday-
Kilpatrick in two straight games,
and had then hit through the defense
of Nelson TugweU and Phil Plaster
21-14, 18-21, 21-18, to take their
place in the finals. Tugwell-Plaster
had won a close match from the un-
orthodox attack of Elwood Brown-
Bruce Cooper 21-16, 22-20, while
Davis-Hutchins were winning a tight
match from Earl Marshbura-Louis
Bimonte, 21-12, 16-21, 21-16.

als scheduled for 9 P.M.

The Duke University basketball team went a lot further than any-
one expected them to this year. The Blue Devils opened their ba of sur-
prises during the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament at Raleigh where
they defeated the two strongest teams in the A.C.C Wake forest ana
the University of North Carolina on successive nights to win the AA,A.
crown. Duke squeaked by the Tar Heels in the semi-finals, and ctme.from
hehind to whip the Deacons in the finals. This gained the Blue Devils a
berth in the N.C.A.A. playoffs which were played in New York's Madison
Square Garden and the Colosseum at (Charlotte, N. C.
Not bothered by the fact that everyone was saying that they would
not get past the first round, Coach Vic Bubas and his boys went to New
York in a mood of determination. The Blue Devils had to prove to every-
one that they were going further than the first round . . . and that's exactly
what they did.
Their first match was with Ivy League champion, Princeton, who
didn't prove to be much of a match after all. The Blue Devils romped over
Princeton in perfect form, and their next stop was in Charlotte for the
remainder of the regional playoffs. Here Bubas and his boys met with a
little more competition in St. Josephs of Pennsylvania, but Duke passed
the test to defeat the yankees in a hard fought two point victory.
But at this point the Durham five met their match in New York
University. The Violets were riding high on their upset victory over the
University of West Virginia, a 81-80 overtime thriller. The New Pork
boys proved to have too much talent for the Blue Devils, and consequently
the Dukes got behind and could never catch up.
Even though the Blue Devils didn't win any national championships,
they did succeed in gaining a couple of moral victories. Three times dur-
ing the regular season the Tar Heels had beaten Duke, and Wake Forests
Deacons had downed the Blue Devils twice. It was a surprise to everyone
except Coach Bubas, who figured that the pressure was on the Tar Heels
and the Deacons instead of his Blue Devils. Evidently he was right.
