(EDITORS NOTE: This is the final
part of a three part series compar-
ing the Japanese and American cul-
tures. The series has been done by
Hideo Kusama, a graduate student
rrom Japan who is attending East
Carolina this quarter.)
I have already introduced to you
some representative forms of Jap-
anese cu'ture which are still growing
as the particular arts of life beyond
the field of temple religion or of ar-
istocratic form.
I have also described the historical
background of the Chanoyu (tea cer-
emony) culture which stated on the
life manner of the ancient Japan's
aristocrats. It was once diffused
among the citizens for a while but
npposite'y was taken up by the feudal
lrds in the sixteenth century and
today it is again to develop as the
multitude arts in the Japanese so-
ciety.
In this respect, chanoyu cultural
'orms are the barometer to dominate
the future Japan's national morals
and the cultural heritage. Through
the practice or the study of any one
of the forms such as flower arrange-
ments, Kabuki p'ay, Noh play, even
as Judo or Kando we can reach to
the same ultimate province as that
of the tea ceremony.
In other words, the Japanese cul-
ture, which more appeals to the in-
dividual rather than to the multitude,

selves and to open minds to new ideas.
While I was writing this article I
felt difficulty in finding out some
suitable references of the American
culture to compare with those of the
living Japanese culture. If any, is it
more natural, more religious, or more
human-like or more materialistic?
Much more about this point will be
said in later sentences.
For the purpose, I feel necessary
to describe more about the main
characteristic of the Japanese cul-
ture which constitute the spirit so-
called "mu" in the tea ceremony.
1. UNBALANCE that is to lore
the unfinished and also to rebuild
the complete. This idea is well ex-
pressed in the equipment used for
the tea ceremony.
2. SIMPLENESS that comes from
the idea to love something deep
which is the way to the truth. Wes-
tern scholars used to try to under-
stand the oriental culture only
through the idea.
3. NOBLENESS that is not the
sensible but the power that the
people keeps in mind in the modest
way. This is the central element
of the Japanese nationality.
4. NATU&ALtfESS that means
non-minded movement, that is the
"movement in silence" and the "si-
lence in movement" whieh are seen
in our appreciation of Kabuki play
and Noh play, and in the play Ju-
do and Kendo. Such more tea cere-
mony like play would be the refer-
ence to the American music or
sports.
5. MYSTERY that is our desire to
get something noble from the na-
ture which is well expressed es-
pecially in the Japanese flower ar-
rangement.
6. NON-MUNDANE that is to
e'ear up our body and spirit in be-
ing alone away from the real so-
ciety. If we accept the idea too of-
ten in our daily life it tends to
make us lose our fellowship to our
neighbors and makes us live in the
world of our own. This is the point
that the oriental people have to
reflect themselves and that refers
to the idea of (Christian love in the
American society.
7. SILENTNESS that is the self-
possession and is the spirit to make
us go forward inside which is very
similar to (6) in the idea to avoid
the gay circumstances and both
of them A&we a side to suggest us
a way to keep ourselves from out-
side changes.
Such kind of cultural elements is
closely connected with the special
circumstances and the process of the
cultural development as we can see
between Japan and the U. S. as fol-
lows:
(A) The Japanese culture has been
developed in the limited material re-
sources to that the American culture
Las been developed in the fruitful
material resources.
(B) The Japanese culture has been
protected through several centuries
of feuda'istic ages by the leader
class to that the American culture
has grown up ame.ig the citiaens in
struggles for freedom
ence.
(C) Although the Japanese culture
has been much inflected by Buddhism
in the early age, generally speaking,
it has already been over the religious
field and it is now retarded before
the western culture in nihilistic ideas,
to that the American culture has
been based upon Christianity which
is always being lived in the church
service as the endless spring for the
human ethics and morality.
In these views, much interests in
making clear tha difference of the
east-west culture seem to be found in
the comparison between the Japan-
ese tea ceremony and the American
church service, between the Judo and
the Boxing, and between the Kabuki
play and the American Jaax.
For our better human understand-
ing, I hope such kind of studies is
much made carefully in each country.

Departmental Meetings
Discussed Dy D. A. C.
At a recent meeting of the Dean's Advis-
ory Council a student protested the procedure
employed here to bring about good attend-
ance at the quarterly departmental meetings.
Under the present system, if a student
fails to attend a departmental meeting he
is punished academically one quality
point is deducted from his over-all grade
average. This is a most unfortunate situation.
Some departmental meetings are bene-
ficial to students and include in their pro-
grams an occasional competent speaker. We
firmly advocate outside speakers bringing
new and different viewi tQ the campus. How-
oxer attendance at their programs should
not be made compulsory and certainly should
not be disguised under the pretense of hold-
ing a departmental meeting.
Other departmental meetings present
si speaker from the given department who
usuallv speaks on some phase of his lielcl,
bringing students up to date on recent devel-
opments in that field. This is good also. How-
ever it is no excuse for taking a quality
point if one fads to attend. Any course in any
department should present the latest and
bet information on the given subject. 1 it
does not do so the course is not accomplish-
ing its purpose, and a more competent pro-
fessor should be found.
l other dei.artmental meetings the de-
partment head and his assistants pass out
forms to be filled out. schedules to be fol-
lowed, or questionnaires to be answered.
These gobs of literature are probably useful
for something but we're not sure what. In
any case a student should not be punished
academically for failure to attend a depart-
mental meeting during which the department
makes up for its failure to communicate prop-
erlv the rest ot the quarter. These forms and
other paraphernalia could easily be mailed
out and the students could use their lost time
to better advantage.
in all. most departmental meetings
haven few good points and a few bad ones.
This is not the point The point is that no
student should have a grade lowered (and in
essence this is what happens) for not attend-
ing a meeting which should be on a volun-
tary basis.
Perhaps there are authorities here WTO
have enough perspective to comprehend this
and enough intelligence to realize something
should be done about it. On the other hand,
perhaps there aren't

Practical Plan
Better System Needed
For Final Examinations
It is almost time for final exams again
and, as in the past, all the exams will be
crammed into a two and one half day exami-
nation period.
Many students will have a full day ot
one exam after another with no break ex-
cept for lunch. This system fosters last
minute cramming" on the night before the

Ry JASPER JONE8
lAfter listening to the ravings of
pubernatorial candidates about "more
n ney for education we were a lit-
tle discouraged. It seems that Messrs.
Sanford. Larklns, ana Seawell are
still clinging to that old American
dictum, "Money soives everything
We were pleased to hear at least
one practical educational plan for
North Carolina from Dr. Beverly
Lake. Dr. Iike seems to have made
H detailed study of education in North
Carolina and has also had expert
ence. eighteen years as a college pro-
fessor.
Dr. Lake began his speech (April
18. on television) by explaining that
the idea of standardization has slowly
but surely suppressed superior stu-
dents by setting aH standards for the
average and xerting our energies
toward bringing the sub-average up
to those standards.
Indeed, many elementary and sec-
ondary schools are simply large baby
sitting institutions filled with "stu-
dents" waiting to be gradually pro-
moted to a high school graduation.
Students do not have to worry about
getting promoted. If they can wait
two years in one grade, the teacher
has to promote them whether they
can write their names or not. Most
people would be amazed at the num-
ber of students who graduate from
high schools in North Carolina every
year who cannot write consecutive,
complete sentences! Consequently,
promotion is not a reward for work
well done, but simply an assurance
of one more year's loafing at state
expense.
Dr. Lake believes that abandon-
ment of this "social promotion" is a
"necessary step toward the needed
revival of learning in our North Car-
olina schools As long as anyone
ran go through a North Carolina bas-
ic education schooling and do nothing,
no amount of money is going to rov-
o'utionize North Carolina education.
The trivial and often unnecessary
duties which plague teachers are an-
other problem which Lake considers
important. Teachers in this state
must keep innumerable records, dir-
ect fund raising drives, participate
in community activities, and handle
countless other extra-curricular mat-
ters. The teacher has little time left
for education. Surprisingly, the chief
uesire o' the majority of teachers is
r.ot more money, but the privilege of
simply being able to teach without
the frustrating demands made by
extra-curricular activities.
Dr. Lake is trying to show North
Carolinians that the key to good bas-
is education is not simply the con-
struction of gorgeous new buildings
or of science labs. The important
thing is to make education a fruitful
experience for teachers and students.
SGA President Calls

we know that it is trying on ones nerves ror rarxitipaiiun
and sleeping schedule, not to mention tnat Dear student b,
one night of cramming leaves one too tired
and nervous to remember a thing he has
read.
Since final examinations are one of the
most important times of the school quarter,
we feel a studv should be made of the situa-
tion here to see if a better system cant be
worked out.

I want to impress upon you the
importance of attending the
Inaugural Ceremonies which are
to begin at 10:30 Friday, May 13.
Classes will be excused for the
ceremonies. There will be many
important delegates and guests
on hand for this occasion and the
number of students that repre-
sent us will be an indication of
the size of our school and of our
school spirit. This can be very
influential when we are trying to
iret appropriations from the state
next year.
On Friday, students are en-
couraged to attend the Open
House at the President's home
from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.
The Inaugural Ball will be Fri-
day, May 13, at 8:00 p.m. in
Wright Auditorium. This is
strictly formal. Tuxedoes, with or
without tails, and white dinner
jackets will be acceptable.
The SGA urges you all to at-
tend these most important events.

The College Union Student
Board invites you to meet Presi-
dent Jenkins and his family at an

Crime Loses Out Again
By DERRY WALKER
I suppose I shouldn't comment on Chess-
man since so many other people undoubtedly
will but Assuming he was guilty .
.lS proven. Had he been released, he would
have had quite an enjoyable life, provided by
the profits from the three books he wrote
ivhile incarcerated; the last little literary
fern sold millions. A twelve-year investment
(he wa imprisoned for twelve years), that
would return a profit like that might be worth
the time, but perhaps not the mental strain
Had he been released, and a guilty man
at that, we would have seen an example of
crime paying after all. However, it's dust on
the prairie now, for Chessman is dead. He
took it well; giggled when the pellet hit the
acid.
Have you seen the creation that is slow-
ly rising from a patch of bare earth at the
rear of Riwl? We understand if a art. It's
quite a different approach to landscaping.
Looks kind of like a mammoth grey pretzel
left over from the Milwaukee Brewery Com-
pany's annual picnic. It isn't quite finished
yet. Needs just a touch of something. Maybe
salt.
Also, in this humble layman's opinion,
the new additions to the front steps of Raw!
don't contribute to the beauty of same. The
work of these creations is essentially nice,
but they just don't quite fit into the
total of the building's design. How about
something more conservative and less a
tic?
Amateurs Produce A Hit
A star-studded cast of performers
produced a hit called Annie Get Your
Gun in New York City, and a few
years later another group of troupers
made a filmed version with the same
results. Then along came a group of
amateur actors struggling college
students and a few directorsstrug-
gling facu'ty members, who proved
that a little talent smeared with paint
mixed into a background of hit songs
can and does give an audience a night
of delightful entertainment.
Annie Oakley, a tough little cow-
girl, was a tough little role for any
comical singer, but Jane Murray came
through with laughs galore. As an
actress Jane surprised us with her
funny lines uttered with that precise
touch and her charming western
drawl. Unfortunately, holding chu-
inter in her vocalizing was much
more difficult nd Jane fell short in
this department. Her voice was beau-
tiful, but the boisterous, loud-mouth-
ed Annie did not require the soprano
tones Jane delivered. Realizing the
quality of Miso Murray's voice we
can readily understand how impos-
sible this feat was.
When gangly Ronnie Knouse sang
"The Girl That I Marry" many of our
lenrale viewers should have been
leady to apply. Besides lending his
tuperb voice Ronnie gave Frank But-
ier all his persuasive talents and made
him the much desired man-about-
town. Mr. Knouse was one of the few
who had the necessary volume to cope
with the volume of the orchestra. As
an actor Ronnie was not a threat to
Lawrence Oliver, but with his vocal
cords why worry?
As two of the most hi'arious cha-
By PAT HARVEY
Kornegay were a disappointment.
Kenneth's makeup added to his per-
formance, but his stature and youth-
lul voice detracted from the typical
idea of what Buffalo Bill was like.
Sitting Bull had some of the funniest
lint-s but failed to pull in the laughs
he should have. Only in the scalping
scene did Mr. Kornegay really prove
himself to be an all-round Indian.
In the first scene Zuill Bailey gal-
'oped through Ms scenes as though
he had an early appointment with
Marilyn Monroe. Mr. Bailey was lucky
in having a comedian's part made to
order, but he idn't even try to milk
his Liugh lines nor did he really ap-
pear enthusiastic over the fact that
l,e had them.
Two bit parts in the capable hands
of young Jimmy Hale as Little Jake
and Rosemary Swisher in the role
"Miss Society" were superbly enact-
ed. Jimmy's reading lesson with An-
nie in the train scene proved that
children still get attention and Miss
Swisher's dominance of the ballroom
antics proved that a small part does
not have to be small in performance.
The ten dancers did a commendable
job. Fortunately, the numbers were
comparatively easy to prepare. Jim
(iillikin's best number came in the
Drum Dance, which was actually the
best part of the entire play, technical-
ly and musically. The busy chorus
numbers also came through in fine
style.
Highlights of the show were the
blended voices of Davenport, Knouse,
and Ginn singing "There s No Busi-
i ess Like Show Business the scalp-
ing scene, the drum sequence head-
lined by Jane Murray's crazy choreo-
Before long, we will be able to count

ed to James Brewer, the dramatic
Mr. Brewer with the able assistance
of Rose Marie Gornto also served as
technical director and both are to ba
congratulated for this time-consum-
ing job.
It is very seldom that a reviewer
can say hooray for acting, singing,
dancing, and technical work; but for
this production she feels justified in
saying that Annie Get Your Gun was
a superb play of which East Caro-
lina should feel proud.
En Garde
Mary
Lee Lawrence, Judy Hearne, and
Patsy Roberts, were excellent.
Actually there were very few weak
characters in the show and everyone
had their chance to cop a scene or
two. Practically all the songs were
well-known and handled with care and
skill. With Rogers and Hammerstein
and Irving Berlin creating the show,
the musical crew had already reached
first base before they started.
As in all shows the performers are
only a part of the finished product.
Make-up played an important role in
raters Charlie Davenport and Dolly graph, and the ballroom scene in
TatGeorge Seymour and Dotty whk the "Girl, in Bouquet
Flyn'n had an opportunity to steal the
show, and they practically succeeded.
George seemed comparatively stiff in
the first scene, but as the play pro-
gressed his initial appearance was
forgotten; he seemed to be stealing
scenes with too little effort. His voice
and acting blended into a beautiful
characterization.
The darling, nasty Dolly was the
center of hatred in the show, Dotty
Flynn played the part to the hilt and
was so believable that the audience
was really looking forward to seeing
her scalped by Chief Sitting Bull. If
Dotty gave the impression of being
slighty hamy, I say orchids to her
because Dolly was a tall thin, ham.
Dotty's entrance into the ballroom
was one of the most colorful of the
night.
Leland Knight and Ashlynn Maul-
den, the cutest couple observed,
mastered their duets and gave an ex-
eellent performance. Their versions of
Til Share It All With You" and
?Who Do You Love I Hope" numbers
proved that dancing is not an art, but
a learned feat.
Buffalo Bill and Chief Sitting Bull
By PAT FARMER
It seems that here and abroad,
students have taken unto themselves
the authority to appoint themselves
guardians of democracy and human
dignity. Throughout the South, sit-
down strikes still continue and in
Korea, student demonstrations ended
with the resignation of Syngman
Rhee . . . and new demonstrations by
students have started in Turkey . . .
I have often wondered that if a sit-
uation arose in the United States or
here on the campushow many stu-
dents would join "the cause. .
The SGA musical presented this
past week drew large crowds each
night. Jane Murray and Ronnie Kno-
use gave notable performances, but
one of the most outstanding perform-
ances of the entire musical was by
Leland Knight who portrayed Tom-
my Keeler . . . Mr. Knight seemed
more at home on the stage than did
Mr. Knouse, a veteran performer.
With graduation drawing nigh,
East Carolina will lose two of its most
outstanding 'rabble rousers' Fred
Ragan and C. W. Warwick. Many of
you will remember the parts played
by Fred and C. W. in the "constitu-
tion controversy. It is too bad
that our campus does not have more
members like Mr. Ragan and Mr.
Warwick . . . Good luck, fellows. . .
Someone was telling me about a
tournament that was being held here

Everybody hollers about the calibre of the
entertainers that appear before us. The solu-
tion to the problem is simple. Pass a tentative
entertainment budget in the senate in the
Spring Quarter, so that the committee can go
to work on the following year's entertain-
ment series. Under present conditions, the
budget being passed in the fall, it is impos-
sible to get a name band or group of enter-
tainers on short notice. Big name entertain-
ers plan tours and show dates from three to
six months in advance. You just don't call up
a big name sixty days before Homecoming,
and expect him to be available. The other
large schools in the state plan their entertain-
ment and set up their budget in the spring to
insure the. DQibilities of getting the desired
enterfainersTTo why can't ECC? We -

Autos Frustrating
By ROY MART IX
Have you ever been frustrated? Have
you ever gotten to the point where everything
seemed to be an absolute maze of nothing
I have.
I will state my problem as simply as
possible, with all due respect to those con-
cerned.
These small cars are driving me com-
pletely wild. That is the truth. I have tried
for sometime to conceal this fact from friends
and relatives, and even myself, but the other
afternoon it became apparent that this could
not go on, under any circumstances.
For a solid hour, I drove around and
around the campus, peering here and there
with relative calmness at first, and then I
began to become frantic. Everywhere I turn-
ed there was not a parking space to be had.
Then it happened. Far down the line of
parked cars behind Wright, I saw an open-
ing . . . not very big, but just wide enough to
squeeze into. I mashed the accelerator to the
floor, and proceeded at a fast clip in the dir-
ection of the opening, fearing that someone
might get there before I did.
I made it. I saw that nothing stood be-
tween me and that lovely place which would

Q. Why are the government docu-

to shelve them?
A. East Carolina became a gov-

Since that time all publications sent
to us have been shelved. The publi-
cations which are in bundles in the
stacks and have not been shelved are
the ones we received from Washing-
ton High School, which was the area
government depository before we be-
ame such in 1951. All of the material
was printed prior to 1951 and we are
shelving it as fast as our limited help
will allow. We will be another ten
years, with our help, getting it or-
ganized.

James A. Lanier
James Allen Lanier of Wilming-
ton, has been elected president of the
Wesley Foundation for the year 1960-
61. He will be graduated in May with
a Bachelor's. Degree in Natural Sci-
ence, and will return next fall to do
graduate study and to be a graduate
assistant in the Science Department.
Others chosen to membership on
the Wesley Foundation Council are:
Vice President, Walter Johnson; Sec-
retary, Jane Cutrell; and Treasurer,
James Ballard.
ATTENTION
The minimum scho'astic require-
ments are as follows:
(a) A freshman must pass some
work his first quarter. During his
second and third quarters, he must
earn at least six hours of credit each
quarter. Furthermore, a freshman
must earn at least 30 hours of credit
during his first three quarters.
(b) In order to be eligible to en-
roll for the fourth, fifth and sixth
quarters, a student must have earned
two-thirds as many quality points as
he has hours at East Carolina Col-
lege.
(c) During the fourth, fifth, and
sixth quarters, a student must earn
not less than nine hours each quar-
ter. Moreover, a student who fails to
earn a total of 35 hours during this
period will be dropped. Credit is not
counted again for a course which is
taken to raise a non-failing grade.
d) A student will not be enrolled
for any quarter after the sixth if he
has failed to earn as many quality
points as he has total hours at East
Carolina College.
(e) Furthermore, third and fourth
year students must earn a minimum
of 40 hours for each of the two years,
nd n minimum of 9 hours each quar-
ter. Credit is not counted again for
a course which is taken to raise a
i:on-failing grade.
Time spent at another college is
used to determine number of quar-
ters a student has been in school.
A student who has a shortage of
quality points must attend summer
sessions of this Institution to make
up the deficiency, but such defi-
ciency may not be removed through
correspondence or attendance at an-
other college.

Band To Present
Annual Spring
Concert May 12
The Concert Band under the direc-
tion of Herbert L. Carter, of the Mu-
ie Department faculty, will present
their annual Spring Concert in the
Wright Auditorium on Thursday,
May 12 at 8:00 p.m. This inaugural
concert is in honor of President Leo
W. Jenkins' inauguration.
"The program will be varied com-
mented Mr. Carter, "and will be very
interesting from the standpoint of
the listener A special number will
be "Concertino for Percussion and
BauvL' by Clifton Williams. This
Timber has recently been composed
and will feature a percussion ensem-
Lle consisting of nine percussionists.
Another number the band will per-
ior.m is "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desir-
ing by Johann S. Bach.
Other numbers are "Horse and
Buggy by Leroy Anderson; and
"Ho'iday for Winds by Glenn Osser.
Both of these are light pieces. "Lin-
colnshire Posy by Percy Aldridge
Grainger, is a collection of original
folk songs of Lincolnshire in Eng-
land. The band will also perform
three marches; "Jubilee an Ameri-
uun March by George Kenny; "Fa-
ther of Victory a French March
by Louis Ganne; and "Aguerd, a
Spanish March by Jose Franco.
As a special feature the concert
band will give the premiere perform-
ance of "In Quest of Truth an
original composition for Symphonic
Band, which was written especially
for the inauguration by James H.
Parnell of the Music Department.
"This composition stated Mr.
Parnell, "was written with the in-
auguration in mind. I think it's fit-
ting at such an occasion as this to
have a special work, which will ex-
press man's eternal search for truth
and beauty for the better things
of 'ife
" 'In Quest of Truth' is neither a
descriptive piece nor a processional
march commented the composer,
"but rather it is a tone poem. It
hears out its title 'In Quest of
Truth, ' expressing man's search for
truth, with doubts and obstacles in
his path; and it finally resolves into
a triumphant ending
Mr. .Parnell is not a new comer in
the field of composition, as he has
composed many pieces before this
one. Among his more recent ones is
the "Chorale, Variations, and Fin-
ale a trombone solo written last
fa'l for Jack Pindell's senior recital.

News In Brief

Scientists To Do
Summer Research
Five members of the science de-
I artment here will do research work
or teach during the summer at vari-
ous colleges and universities of the
nation.
Dr. Frank Eller will be a member
uf the summer school faculty at the
University of Alaska from mid-June
to August 27. While there, he will
teach biology in the regular program
and work with advanced secondary
science students in a National Science
Foundation Institute in August.
Dr. Joseph N. LeConte will partici-
pate in a National Science Foundation
Institute for college teachers of
chemistry at Emory University,
Georgia, June 13 to August 12. Dr.
Leland Stewart will go to Columbia
Col'ege in South Carolina to teach a
course in chemistry which is spon-
sored by the National Science Foun-
dation for the benefit of high school
science teachers.
Dr. R. M. Helms has been appoint-
ed by the National Science Founda-
tion to study at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology this summer.
His work will include study of radio-
isotopes, their production and iden-
tification. Use of the MIT nuclear
reactor is included on his program.
Dr. Mary C. Helms, his wife, who is
chairman of biology at the college,
will accompany him.
Floyd M. Read will do research
work in thermodynamics and optics
at the Michigan State University dur-
ing the 10-weeks summer session
there. Mr. (Read is a candidate for
the doctorate at Michigan.
J. O. Derrick, faculty member of
the department of science, will parti-
cipate in a Summer Institute in the
History of Scierce for College Teach-
ers to ba held June 6 through July 1
at the University of Tennessee.
Mr. Derrick is one of forty teachers
of science in the United States to re-
ceive a grant from the National
Science Foundation for study at the
institute.

Golfers Unbeaten In Five Matches
The East Carolina golf team has posted a perfect record so far this
season, and if they continue to set the pace that they have against their
five opponents it appears that they will go all the way with an undefeated
year.
The Pirate linksters opened the season with a victory over the Green-
ville Country Club team, and since that time the Bucs have proceeded to
knock off four consecutive North State Conference opponents, the last of
which was arch-rival Atlantic Christian College.
In the encounter with the Bulldogs, four out of East Carolina's five
boys shot in the 70's. Little Bit! Guthrie, the number three man on the Pi-
late squad had his best day against the Bulldogs, shooting a 72, par on the
Country Club course. Guthrie gained the medalist honors with his low of
72, while the number two man. Paul Goodwin shot a two over par 74. Fol-
lowing Goodwin in the ECC scoring was Don Conley with 76 and Steve
Fulp with a 79.
Southern Conference Bound?
At least two members of the East Carolina Coaching staff are aware
of the fact that this institution is pressing the Southern Conference for
admittance and they are preparing for the big change.
If any of you would care to stay away from the beach for one week-
end, you might try wandering down to Memorial Gymnasium on a Satur-
day morning and find out why all the footballs and basketballs have been
flying around Lately.
Head football coach Jack Boone has reaFy been doing some hustling.
He has had boys at EOC from just about every state this side of the Missis-
sippi River. Some of them he has interested, some he has not. But there
have been some real giants working out on the Pirate turf that could cer-
tainly give the EC football team a boost.
Earl Smith, head basketball coach, is known to be one of the better
recruiters in this part of the state. Everyone learned this when he grabbed
two of the most sought after prep stars in the state in Cotton Clayton and
Lacy West.
Clayton did his high .school playing at Henderson, while West per-
formed at Asheboro. Both made the All-State squad and both played in
the East-West All-Star game. (As a matter of fact West was the only
high school player to stop Clayton from scoring in double figures in the
latter contest.)
Coach Smith grabbed Clayton right out of the hands of the Atlantic
Coast Conference's Big Four, who were very interested in the tow-headed

But Smith is not sitting back and
re'axing now that he has these
two fine ball players. He has had prep school stars from West Virginia
and New York to show their talents with the round ball in the EC gym.
The always-on-the-move Smith has made trips to Indiana to scout a few
plrospects there.
Both Boone and Smith realize that a coaches job is not over when
his team hangs up their uniforms after that last ball game of the season.
They realize that their job is a year round one, and from this corner it
appears they are doing a fine job of it . . . Hats off to the men who are
striving to make East Carolina's ath'etic teams ones to be prouder of!
Take Me Out To The Ball Game
If any of you baseball fans plan to attend East Carolina's remain-
ing baseball games to be held at Guy Smith Stadium, here is the sugges-
tion that you leave your automobiles at home and walk out to the ball park.
At a recent game held at the city stadium there seemed to be much
confusion about the parking of cars. During the middle of an inning one of
the Greenville City Policemen approached the press box to make an an-
nouncement. It seemed as though there were some spectators who had
double-parked in front of the ball park. It is not the policy of announcers
to make interruptions during an inning, so the crucial announcement was
made at the end of the stanza. The announcement was that anyone who
had double-parked their cars would have to move them immediately or suf-
fer the penalty of a traffic ticket. Before the announcer could click off
his microphone, the owners of these illegally parked autos were up and
running to move them. But before they could get to their cars, the en-
forcers of the law had already p1aced tickets on them. Was this a fair deal?
Regardless of whether it was fair or not, it is still the suggestion
f this writer to leave your cars at home if you plan to watch a ball game
t Guy Smith Stadium. Although you may wear out a pair of shoes, look
nrhat you save in the long run. Gas, a hot head, and most important of all,
nonay.
Nearly 1,000,000 American men,
women and children were injured or
killed last year because an automo-
bile driver exceeded the speed limit.

After being rained out at High
I'oint, EC baseball coach Jim Mal-
lory took his team to Winston-Salem
to lock horns with the Demon Dea-
cons of Wake Forest College last
Friday night.
Nathan Green held Wake Forest to
one infield scratch single for the first
seven innings, while the Pirates were
racking up a 3-0 margin.
Spencer Gaylord, Gary Pierce and
Jim Martin led off for the Bucs in
the first stanza with singles. But
together with a free pass to Wally
Cockrell and the .Pirates had two
: uns. A walk, a fielders choice, and
another single by Martin gave EC
three runs in the eighth.
But the Deacons rallied in the last
two fiames to pull it out of the fire
and knot the count at 3-3 after the
regulation nine innings. Billy Packer
homered to lead off the Wake Forest
eighth. Then an EC miscue followed
by singles by Paul Wiimer and Char-
He Forte accounted for two runs in
the ninth to tie the score.
Johnny Ellen came in for the Pi-
tates and blanked the Deacs for one
and a half extra innings, but Wil-
nier ended the game with a four-bag-
ger in the Wrake Forest 11th.

after Pierce and Glenn Bass walked
w the second frame and Charlie
reached base n a fielder's choice.
Castellow let fly a slashing double
to si-ore two EC baserunners. Then
Crayton lifted a long fly to the out-
field to enable Johnson to tag up and
score from third. Lead-off man Spen-
cer Gaylord ended the EC scoring
with a single that scored Castellow,
nnd the .Pirates had a 4-0 lead.
The Christians scored one run in
the fourth and added another tally
in their last bid for victory in the
ninth.
The win marked Crayton's seventh
of the season against one setback.
The Pirate southpaw struck out eight
Christians even though he had an un-
usnal streak of wildness.
