Over 57,000 Foreign Students
Attend U. S. Universities
Statistics indicate United States
colleges, universities and other
institutions of higher learning
have more than 57,000 foreign
citizens enrolled.
This international educational
program is not a one-way street
as more than 12,000 U. S. citizens
will complete their schooling
abroad this year which permits
them through close personal asso-
ciation to project the American
way of life among foreign nation-
als. These international educa-
tional programs promise long
range benefits politically and eco-
nomically.
More foreign citizens study in
the United States than in any
other country which promises 1
better understanding of America's
philosophy aimed toward improv-
ing the lot of small nations. In-
evitably they return better equip-
ped to aid in the development of
the economy and standard of liv-
ing of their native lands.
Not surprising is the fact that
the vast majority of foreign citi-
zens studying in the United States
come from the undeveloped coun-
tries where school! of advanced
learning covering broad fields are
either non-existent or all too
scarce to satisfy the educational
needs.
The largest number cone f om

by Latin America, Europt, Near
end Middle But, Canada and
African countries.
Railway Express Agency statis-
tics reveal that it handled thous-
ands of shipments yearly to and
from U. S. colleges, some con-
sisting of personal baggage and

editorial in Technology News,

"Senator Sparkman of Alabama

Castro as anti-Communist or
attacking him as a Communist.

e can pass judgment on
methods and reasoning behind
stands taken by both sides on
the issue.
The most obvious conclusion
one may gain by listening to these
charges and counter-charges is
the fact that, unless Joe American
has a label to tag on a ruler, Joe
is at a loss to decide whether that
ruler is good or bad.
"For example, the U. S. argu-
ment about Cuba hinges on whe-
ther or not Castro is a Commun-
ist. The assumption all the dispu-
tants make is that, once that fact
is decided, ail else falls into line
and Castro automatically joins
either the ranks of the 'good guys'
in white suits on white steeds or
he conspires with the 'bad guys'
in black suits on black horses.
"If it is proven that Castro is
not a Communist, we are left with
the impression that Americans
will then be satisfied with his
policies, whether they are morally
good or bad.
"On the other hand, proof that
the bearded rebel is a Commun-
ist-sympathizer will automatically
overrule any good he may accom-
plish, at least in the mind of our
friend Joe American.
"Vance Packard, David Ries-
man and Aldous Huxley may have
exaggerated the plight of the
American way of life in some
cases, but apparently even their
most sweeping generalizations
about the character of Joe Ameri-
can are upheld.
"The one area of contention in
which the political commentators
are apparently on firm ground is
in the realm of comparison of
Castro's regrime with that of his
predecessor, Batista. It should
be explained that, from a moral
standpoint, a simple comparison
does not convict or exonerate
Castro in toto. From a political
standpoint, however, it greatly
clarifies the situation in Cuba.

During the past five years, the
lanky figure could be seen almost
anywhere around the East Caro-

; place he was most frequently seen
was in the area of Memorial Gym-

His gait could more clearly be
classified as a lope, or perhaps
; even a slow trot, and in his hand
could be seen either a yellow

But Johnny's college career has
not been solely confined to the

Johnny began his career with

! his junior year, when he was

he was elevated to the position of

Fields of overseas employment
range from banking, insurance,
finance, through production to
the marketing and distribution of
goods, Mrs. Erickson said, with
the larger number of AIFT grad-
uates entering the marketing and
distributing end of the business.
She pointed out, however, that
there is a continuing need for
men with backgrounds in ac-
counting arid technical or scien-
tific education.
"I would say the most 'place-
able' man in the field of foreign
trade is the man with a major in
chemistry, accounting, or engi-
neering. I wish there were some
way to tell these men of the fine
opportunities for men with such
training
To help fulfill the need for
accountants and comptrollers a-
broad, accounting is stressed in
the business administration stu-
dies at the American Institute for
Foreign Trade. "Obviously, we
cannot make a practiced accoun-
tant of a man in two semesters
says Professor Paul Wilson, who
handles the accounting work, "but
we can expose him to the field,
teach him the operations of ac-
countancy, and make him familiar
with the concepts, procedures,
and vocabulary. Then he will be
in a position, with further experi-
ence, knowledgebly to interpret
financial presentations
In its business administration
courses, the Institute emphasizes
the concrete and practical, on the
assumption that the young col-
lege graduate has had the theory.
"Core course" in this depart-
ment is foreign trade. Here, the
student learns the actual docu-
mentation and financing of

marketing, salesmanship, adver-
tising, international commercial
law, and management.
In the advertising course, stu-
dents are formed into "agen-
cies" and prepare a full-fledged
campaign on a product to be mar-
keted in a foreign country which
they have selected. These cam-
paigns are judged by leading ad-
vertising men in the Phoenix
area on the basis of the "agen-
cy's" actual presentation.
This is another example of the
practicality of classroom work at
Thunderbird, as the school is
more familiarly known.
In addition to their work in
business administration, students
take intensive language work and
study the areas of the world in
which they expect to be employ.

It was also during the summer

the campus of Ohio Wesleyan Col-

Among his other accomplish-

vcung High School All-Stars Put
0" Close 10 Inning Game For Fans
Fast Carolina College, The
Lion's Club of Greenville and the
Western North Carolina All-Stars
were all quite pleased with the
way things turned out at Guy
Smith Stadium last Friday night.
It was the place where the first
annual East-West All-Star High
School baseball contest took
place. The Weal won by a score
of 9 to 8.
ECC hosted the affair in con-
junction with the local Lion's
Club, and even though the atten-
dance was quite low, everything
went fairly well. Dr. N. M. Jor-
genson and Coach James Mallory
did a great deal to make this first
time event in Greenville possi-
ble. Of course these young high
school lads saw quite a bit of
East Carolina's physical plant as
well as some of its environment.
To say that the West had the
better ball club would not be a
valid statement Both teams
were about equal in strength and
depth. If the two clubs went at
it again the East could very easily
win. Only two mental errors
ing gems at first in addition to
knocking out two timely doubles
at the plate. It was a hard choice
for anyone to make as these two
players and several others all
played their hearts out right down
to the final out.
It is hoped that this affair will
take place here again next year.

Male Attire Need
Not Be Drab As
Colors Take Over
Hey, fellows! The fact that
men in our American society do
not wear hooped skirts and frilly
petticoats does not confine the
male to drab attire. In fact, this
spring men can dress both hand-
somely and stylishly.
Pattern is perhaps the upper-
most phase of variety in the man's
wardrobe. Checks and plaids are
expressing themselves in sports
coats and in some sports shirts.
Bermudas are appearing in ma-
dras and conversational prints.
Slacks seem to be following solids
which will go better with the
plaid and checked sports coats
and shirts.
The new favorite tapered pull-
over sports shirts are going to he
popular this spring.
For those interested in models
and details, the coats this year
are to be generally one-fourth of
an inch shorter in length than
they were last spring.
As for the colors"the lounder
the better Solids are still of
major importance in suits. Solid
colors are dominating the knit
shirts, which will have their big-
gest year. The new color trends
are the olive and gold standards.
Gentlemen, combine these
varieties in colors, patterns, and
styles with the light-weight blends

Three workshops in the field
of the humanities will be offered
during the summer session. Topics
and dates are Morals and Modern
Man, June 20-July 1; The Bible
and Its Background. June 27-July
8; and Developing a Philosophy
of Life, July 14-27.
Dr. Cleveland J. Bradner, Jr
director of religious activities at
the college, will act as director
of each of the courses of study.
A graduate of Atlantic Chris-
tian College in Wilson, Dr. Brad-
ner holds the B.D. degree from

lina faculty since 1957 and, in
addition to his other duties, has
been instructor of several of tele-
vised courses of study presented
by the college over Channel 7.
Each of the workshops to be
offered this summer will offer
three quarter-hours of college
credit. Those who do not wish
credit may attend as auditors.

Softball, basketball, and foot-
ball have been the nucleus of the
sports offered in East Carolina's
former intramural program but
with the appointment of Mr. Carr
to spend more time with it, pros-
pects are bright for a more di-
versified program with the addi-
tion of minor sports. Coach Earl
Smith had been the Faculty Di-
rector of Intramurals but will
now be able to spend greater
effort as head coach of the ECC
basketball team. Varsity basket-
ball and intramural basketball
have been in minor conflict in
the past when one person was re-

lightened to some degree with the
appointment of Mr. Carr to head

like Sugar Ray Robinson are allowed to make a farce out of the
game, with considerable help from others of cou

Robinson In Court More Than In Ring0
Robinson is now being sued by the Charles Cent i
of Baltimore. Maryland, asking $9,000 from Pobir.
to appear at a scheduled bout there on May 16. for a fight with Pedro
Gonslaves. This is the basic issue but there are other reasons for
the suit. In fact, Robinson has been in and out of the courts on box-
ing negotiation reasons so many times it is hard to remember the
number. Perhaps he is just a lever for a person like his promoter.
Sam Silverman. Robinson drew 30 of the gate receipts in last
Friday night's fight while Pender also drew 30. The promotor,
Sam Silverman drew 40. He did not have to swing his fist at all.
Silverman called the fight a "grudge fight" although few knew what
the alledged grudge was about. To my knowledge there is no such
things as "grudge games" in the major leagues and very few teams
in the history of the game, if any. failed to show up at game time
I am sure.
Why Not Clean Up Boxing?
Mr. Kefauver would do well to turn his guns on another sport if
he wishes to do a little house cleaning. Even Floyd Patterson and

Mantle and Company At It Again!
Mickey Mantle's bat whipped Chicago for the most part in two
big games last week. If the Yankee centerfielder could iiveup to
his potential for most of this summer, the Yanks would probably
climb right to the top and stay there. Mantle is certainly an un-
usual ballplayer. He can run like a deer, yet has a serious bone
disease in one of his legs, bunts with excellent ability and still hits
many homers over 450 feet. It is doubtful if he will ever regain
tho form in 1955 that lad him to have 25 homers and over 50 runs
batted in whan half the season was over. He ended up hitting .385,
55 homers and over 125 RBI's. If he should fade from the picture
due to this bone disease baseball would miss another star player.
With Ted Williams and Stan Musial almost gone as it is. the gam
does not seem quit the same.
