Quality Education; 361
Dismissed This Summer
In his speech to the faculty last week' Dr.
Jenkins disclosed that 3o5 undergraduates
and 26 graduate students were dismissed
from East Carolina this summer because of
scholastic reasons. During the same address
Dr. Jenkins sad, "The first objective of this
college should be quality education; the other
activities should be purely of a supplementary
nature aimed at supporting this objective. . .
We have a responsibility to the people of the
state to see that only those who have the abil-
ity to profit by this expenditure (365 per
student, per year paid by the state) and are
willing to utili7e that ability are made wel-
come here
Some have criticized this attitude saying
an education should not be denied to anyone.
However, we heartily endorse Dr. Jenkins
and the college for their stand,
"uajjfied students will never be denied an
education' at East Carolina. Those individuals
who are honest in Vhetrtle&isenior, an educa-
tion may get it here. On the other hand thef
are some who are interested only in "hanging
around They, for some reason, like the cam-
pus and enjoy being here. But to them the
word 'education' has no meaning. They fail
to realize the seriousness of the matter just
as they fail to attend class and just as they
fail to read their assignments.
These individuals are only so much trash
in a stream. They should be removed so the
stream can flow better. The college is not
defying an education when they dismiss these
so-called 'students it is only providing a
better opportunity for those who really want
an education by eliminating this 'driftwood
Student Newspaper Asks
For Helpful Suggestions
In this our first issue of the 60-61 school
year we are presenting several stories and
columns by freshmen writers. This freshness
of staff we hope will be somewhat symbolic
of our policies this year. We look forward
to presenting to the student body many ideas
which are fresh and many accomplishments
which are new.
We hope to overcome some of the ob-
stacles which proved to be annoying last year
and to give the campus better news and edi-
torial coverage than ever before.
In our efforts to do this we invite all
students to offer their suggestions, criti-
cisms, likes and dislikes at :iy time. We also
invite student participation in ;he actual pub-

the Board of Trustees had not given
permission for the formation of such

They met in vacant classrooms

and its student body.
Finally, in the spring of 1957, the
campus voted :ts approval of social
fraternities. The wheels were now
set in motion for correspondence with
offices of the big national fraterni-
ties. Ther inquiries were answered

Fraternal observers have constant-

life. There appears to be no depth or

Many faculty and community citi-

talent to helping these young men.
Through their combined efforts, the
dream of fraternity houses has be-
come a reality. Four of the present
seven nationals have obtained hous-

Pubic relations is an important
item for this year's Interfraternity

of critics. These parties will look
closely over the scholastic and serv-
ice accomplishments of the Greek

President Urges
Students To Stay
For Demo Rally
Dear Editor:
As I'm sure you already know,
Senator John Kennedy, Democratic
Presidential nominee will visit our
campus on Sept. 17.
I would like to encourage everyone
who can to be on hand for this spec-
ial occasion.
For many students this will be
their first chance to see and hear a
presidential candidate.
The fact that Senator Kennedy con-
sidered E.C.C. important among his
many stops will do much for our
school. The number of students at-
tending will indicate the tremendous
enrollment of ECC to those who are
not aware.
There will be important people
from the state legislature, many of
whom do not realize how large E.C.C.
us. This is our big opportunity for
state and national recognition.
The most important part that each
student can play in this event, re-
gardless of party preference, is to
be there himself.
I look forward to seeing everyone
at the College Stadium, Saturday
morning.

'Why Is He Coming

It could be .said that the opening qu4rt

due to the fact that it was the Fasten: North

holds high regard for this part of the state

A sincere welcome goes out to the new-

not a so-called "crip" institution; so start

studying. Many of us started with the other
arts such as bridge, social work in the auda
shop and, our favorite, procrastination.

Dr. Rickert Assumes Duties As Playhouse
Director; Plans For Year Announced
"We would like to produce plays
that will appeal to both the audience
and the actors stated Dr. Robert
T. Rickert. the 1960-61 director of
the East Carolina Playhouse. Dr.
Rickert has assumed the (position
vacated by Dr. J. A. Withey, who
will be in Burma for approximately
a year.
At this year's initial meeting con-
ducted last week the Playhouse be-
gan its season plans by adopting
the hilarious, stylish Philadelphia
Story by Phil'ip Barry as its first
major production. Tentative plans
were alsu mfde for other possible
plays for this year. "I believe that
tie Playhouse continued Dr. Rick-
ert, "with a great deal of support,
can produce or can help produce three
skews before Christmas
Fatuity Play
A part of the night's discussion
included the possibilities of having a
faculty play which at one time was
an animal production at EOC.
The Male Animal by James Thur-
ber Wft suggested as a possible
script.
A faculty play would have an all-
faculty cast with Playhouse mem-
hers filling in where needed and
providing the technical work.
Rives Directs
Associate Director Dr. Ralph Rives
will direct the first production with
Dr. Rickert assisting as technical
director, Dr. Rives, a new addition to
le English Department, is an ECC
r.lumnus and ft inier member of the
Playhouse.
Following its success on Broadway
in the late thirties. Philadelphia Story
became a film of the same name, and
the movie version which starred Ka-
hivn Hepburn received all the spirit-
ed acclaim of the play. A later film
added music by Cole Porter and
i hanged the title to High Society. Bing
by. Frank Sinatm, and Grace
Kelly starred in this 1966 production.
Also on the agenda of Playhouse
activities is a short one-act farce to
be given on closed-circuit TV. "Two
years ago similar plans were made
but were never fulfilled. But this
quarter we hope to start a series of
short iplays on television stated
Corine Rickert.
Puccini's Soenr Angelica to be giv-
en by the music department Septem-
ber 18, has included several Playhouse
members on its technical staff. Alice
Cariolano is acting as stage manager
with Howard Mallard, properties; Sus-
an Truesdale, costumes; and Doming
Jenkins, make-up, assisting her.
Other positions are being filled by
the music department.
Besides the additions of Drs Rick-

Watercolor Society Presents
Exhibition In Art Department
Opening the 1960-1961 program
of exhibitions sponsored by the De-
partment of Art is the current trav-
eling show of the New Jersey Water-
color Society.
Thirty-one pictures by nineteen ar-
tists are now on view in the Hall-
way Gallery, Rawl Building. The pub-
lic is invited to attend the exhibition
daring the first three weeks of Sep-
tember.
The New Jersey Watercolor Society
had its origin in the Montclair Art
Museum. Over the years member-
ship has increared from a dozen wa-
tercolorists to ft ipresent total of six-
ty carefully selected artists. Works
by some of the members are now in
the permanent collection of the Mont-
clair Art Museum, in other institu-
tions, and in h number of private
collections.
The traveling art show, according
to Metz T. Gordley of the college Art
Department, is of interest both for
representational and technical per-
formance of the exhibiting artists.
"Of particular interest he stated,
"is Jane Oliver's watercolor titled
'Dockside which employs not only
the translucency of the watercolor
medium, but also opaque use of the
medium for contrast with the gen-
oral light, airy quality of the paint-
ing
Gordley singles out for attention
also the work of Arthur Barbour.
"While Jane Oliver takes liberties
with depiction of objects in order to
build pictorial structure he says,
"Arthur Barbour places the scene of
his inspiration on the picture sur-
face with exceptional skill with the
watercolor med'um, yet refrains from
departing from the visual image
His watercolo- "Wiroterset" demon-
strates this faith to the subject
Gordley said, "and expresses the ar-
tist's intention within his self-imposed
ooundaries

Students Of Today Have
Excellent Opportunities
By BETTY MAYNOR
During the opening of school when
the American educational system
faces the citizens of our country, it
is wise to stop and consider just how
fortunate we are to be able to attend
this school of higher education.
Millions of ycung people the world
over, who are pejrhaps more capable
than any of the students enrolled
here, are forced to discontinue any
further educational prospects beyond
our secondary level.
In America, any student who truly
desires an education can achieve the
goal he sets for himself. Many of the
male students enrolled in the col-
leges and universities in the United
States are receiving their college de-
grees, courtesy of the larger indus-
tries and corporations in the country.
The fact that hundreds of students
are receiving scholarships, was
brought out recently in the issue of
v. national magazine.
We have every opportunity in the
world to secure an education, which
today is so important, and often we
let that opportunity slip through our
hands.
Those students who are attending
Jaye Finnigatt, president of the
Kasl Carolina Pajihellcnic Council,
addressed approximately yoo fresh-
n.en women Last week in coordina-
tion with the college orientation pro-
-iiam.
This opportunity servej a juel pur.
post in giving these students a knowl-
le of cnmpog sororities. The girls,
all potential pledges were told of
the interests, requirements, services
and obligations of sorority life.
lJm. bidding, rush and pledging
are some of the things discussed with
the girh.
Formal rush, which is scheduled
fol the third week in January, gives
Uie rushee and the sorority an op-
portunity to decide on their various
preferences and results in a mutual
decision between pledge and sorority.
Freahmtn and transfer students will
have an opportunity to familiarize
themselves with campus sororities
during a planned "get-acquainted"
party in early October. Jaye Pinnl-
gan advised all girls to, "go through
formal rush and avoid any snap de-
lisions
The Fanhellenic council is the gov-
erning body of .Hir college's eight na-
tional sororities. This year's council,
which stresses unity among sorori-
ties, is composed of "a great grou.)
of girls according to its president,
Jaye, and is "looking forward to n
tremendous year
Some of the proposed sorority
events being planned for the coming
year include a picnic for all sorority
members which will "provide an op-
portunity for the renewal of old
friendships
When asked if she feels that sor-
orities promote cliques on campus,
Jaye defended those whom she rep-
resents by saying that she knows our
school to be " friendly place" and
feels that this "spirit of common to-
getherness is reflected through its
sororities.
Editor G. C. Christman, Pennsburg,
Pa Town and CountryPrivate in-
dividuals are hiving a difficult time
trying to save money because it is
being sapped away by taxes.
"The strength and the wonder of
'his nation still rest in the fact that
it can offer unique opportunities to
rich and poor alikethat a man can
rise as far as his ability and his
initiative will carry him. When you
kill this incentive, you have also
slain the America that cur forefa-
thers hoped for, and that millions
of men have fought for in the inter-
vening years
East Carolina lor the first time are
in an excellent position to start out
on the right faot in .preparing for
four years of intellectual growth.
Those students who did not make
that first step are now challenged
to make the most of the remaining
years in college.
In one sense of the word, the col-
lege students of the United States
owe it to the students of other coun-
tries of the world to make the very
most of the opportunity presented
them to attend an institution of high-
er learning.
Education, once considered a frill,
is now a necessity and should be
treated as such. Let's make this year
the most outstanding ever.
Religion? What Does It

Masses Struggle To Stay

By KAY McLAWHON
The dike has burst; the flood is u-
on us. Martial law should be de-
clared until the waters recede, or
until the hole in the dike can he
plugged up w'th something any-
thing. Everywhere the masses strug-

sloshes them along to whatever it

A precious few who have made

they remain as before, a voice and
nothing more; sound without sense:
vox, et praeterre-a nihil.

A new African nation becomes independent on October 1,
1960. Nigeria - with a population of almost 40-million will
al.o bring with it the rise of a new modern metropolis at
Enugu, in the Eastern Region, o-
Inspired by the United Na-
tions buildings in New York
and the leadership of former
Eastern Nigeria Premier
Mnamdi Azikewe, one of the
lathers of Nigerian indepen-
dence, the cityas shown above
is now under construction.
It will include buildings for the
legislature, government offices,
aO homes, the Premier's resi-
oence, & 200 room air condi-
tioned hotel, shopping center
and all the facilities of a model
fity.
Characteristic of the desire
fr niocrrn industrialization
end progiess in Nigeria is the
community self - development
pirft of toe Eastern Region.
Intirs villages contribute their
time, effort and skills, without
compensation to the cooperative
building of modern etfhools,
markets and even bridges.
The 20th century has been
for Nigeria one of development
unequalled In Africa. Nigerian
imports and exports combined
were only 912-miQloa in 1914.
Since 1945, they have averaged
about $600-mluion uoh year.
Government income from taxes
has risen iron; about12-mil-
lion in 1922 to well over $150-
million today. And, in just the
past quarter of a century, the
number of Nigerians who can
read and write has almost
tripled.
Unlike other areas in Africa
that have marked independ-
ence with violence and unrest.
Nigeria becomes self-governing
in an atmosphere of peaa ana
harmony.

EAST CAROLINIAN
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 15
t
S ETA RIP
STRIP
By LEONARD LAO
Faithful Fan
With the coming of a new school year, there are a lot of new things
to replace the old ones. We thought it would be appropriate to bring some-
thing new to the sports page of the East Carolinian. Consequently, you
readers have seen your last Pirate's Den. Rest its soul.
Many things have occurred in the Pirate's Den; some things have
been joyous, others heartbreaking. It, like all other, has set its good and
bad days. There were times when it cheered you, times vhen it made you sad.
But regardless of whether it left you bright or blup, it was always there,
and to some of you, we hope it was a welcome sight.
Johnny Hudson, former Sports Editor of the East Carolinian and now
the holder of that same position with the Daily Reflector, was the originator
of the Pirate s Den. Since that time it has passed into our hands. Now like
old soldiers, it will not die, but joist fade away.
Earlier Opener
Western Carolina and Catawba got an early start over the other
North State Conference teams this season. The two met last Saturday night
on a neutral field in Asheville for the non-conference contest. They will meet
again on October 8 in a conference match which will be played on the Ca-
tawba field. It will be the Indian's homecoming game.
North State Outook
East Carolina . . . Coach Jack Boone may find himself looking to
his freshmen. The loss of 17 lettermen, seven of them starters last season,
put a big dent in the squad in consideration of depth. But the returning
members of the club are real hustlers and should lead the Pirates to a suc-
cessful campaign.
Appalachian . . . The Mountaineers may not be quite up to par in
contrast to last season's team. However, new coach Jim Duncan has 19
returning to the App camp. The big problem seems to be lack of depth in
key positions. This problem at the halfback and tackle posts could give
Mountaineer followers some anxious moments this fall. Mountain boys to
watch this year are centers Carl Messere, guard Frank Smith, and Bob
Morrison, a flanker.
( atawba The Indians 1960 football edition looms as a big ques-
tion mark. Switching to a single wing could pose a few problems for the
Salisbury team, who is under the direction of a new coach, Presnell Mull.
If certain key men are not struck by injuries, the Indians should come out
better than last season when they finished with a 2-7-1 record.
Elon . . . The Fighting Christians are also under the guidance of a
new coach. George Tucker, who was an assistant coach at East Carolina last
year, is the new Christian mentor. Tucker will have a young ball club, but
the 1959 freshmen will have an advantage of a year of experience, and the
Christians should improve over last fall's squad which managed only one
win in 10 starts.
Cuilford The Quakers will count on 18 lettermen to balance the
loss of several of last year's outstanding performers, including Little All-
American John Meroney. The outlook is a question mark. Letterman Jim
Stutts, a converted end should give strength to the Quakers at fullback while
at the quarterback slot, Guilford has two tested veterans in Hal James and
Brodie Baker.
Lenoir-Rhyne 19 lettermen return from a team that was un-
beaten during the regular season and ranked No. 1 in the NAIA'S football
poll among the nations small colleges. As Coach Stasavich puts it, "It is
difficult to say what will be our strong or weak points until we've been
tested in several games. I'm quite certain we'll lose several games
Western Carolina . . . Possibilities appear good for another fine team
for the Catamounts in 1960. There are 20 lettermen returning with fair
depth at all positions. "If we develop the poise required says Coach Dan
Robinson, "we should have a fine team

Catamount Coach Worried
About Many Vacant Spots
Head football coach Dan Robinson
of Western Carolina College, elected
"Coach of the Year" i nboth the North
State Conference and District 26 of
the National Association of Inter-
collegiate Athletics during 1959, will
be running his Catamounts basically
from a T formation again this sea-
son.
Prior to his opening game with
Catawba College, the WC mentor was
having trouble working out a suit-
able defense to use against the Salis-
bury club, who will introduce a new
offense for themselves this fall, the
single wing.
As Robinson put it, several posi-
tions on the Catamount club are still
undecided. Three quarterbacks are
fighting to fill the post vacated by
All-Clonferenoe and All-State Bob
Cooper who graduated.
Tobe Childres, Bruce Peterson and
Ken Morgan are waging a hot battle
for the starting position. Childres is
a senior, Peterson a junior, and
Morgan a sophomore.
The Catamount coaching staff is
worried about finding a strong tack-
an important second-unit
le
post open for newcomers. Seveial
freshmen are being considered as
well as one sophomore who saw limit-
ed action last season.
The Catamounts have one of the
finest coaching staffs of any school
in the conference. If anyone is able
to bring out the best in the material
that they have available, this staff
should be the one. Sid Varney, for-
mer head coach at Elon, is now line
caach at Western Carolina. Tom
Young, Athletic Director at the Cul-
iowhee institution and former head
coach, works with the ends.
This trio of coaches gives Western
Carolina a strong one-two punch.
SWIMMERS TO MEET
The Aquanymphs will hold their
first meeting (f the year, Septem-
ber 19 at 6:30 p.m. in the college
pool. All girls who are interested in
improving strokes and learning stunts
are invited to attend.
Batmen Get Early
Start This Year
By RICHARD BOYD
Beginning early this week and con-
hiding after a two week session,
for the first time in the history of
last Carolina fall baseball prac-
tice is being introduced. The prac-
tice will be under the direction of
bead coach Jim Mallory.
The main purpose of this brief
outing, Coach Mallory expiained, is
to look at some prospective under-
classmen who may be able to help
the Pirates defend the North State
('onference championship this com-
ing spring.
Last seasons team performance was
was due to the aid of many under-
classmen who helped the team com-
pile a 12-2 league record, and a 17-5
mark in over-all competition.
Coach Mallory is optimistic con-
cerning his team's chances next
spring with veterans returning at
every position. Charles Johnson, Bur
Morris, and J. W. Edward are three
catchers that any coach in the league
would like to have. Such fine in-
fieldera as Jim Martin, Spencer (Jay-
loid, Glenn Bass, and Wilber Caste-
low are returning.
The outfield is composed of Gary
Pierce, W. illy Cockrell, and Merle
By num. Larry Cray ton, Dan Rouse,
Bftd Ken Snyder are three southpaws
that should toe the rubber consis-
tently. Crayton is an All-Stater who
owned a remarkable 7-1 record last
eason, and opened the eyes of a
handful of Ma for League scouts with
his effectiveness.
Most of these veterans will attend
the fall session, and work out with
iih new comets as pitchers "Pete
Hunter and Joe Dail, both outstand-
ing righthanders in .North Carolina
scholastic circles this past year.
Basketball stars Cotton Clayton and
Lacy West, who did not play last
season, but were outstanding scho-
lastic baseball players are expected
to be strong infield candidates.
All Freshmen and Sophomores who
are interested in being candidates
for next season's nine are asked to
attend these practice sessions. Coach
Mallory will choose the players for
spring drills from the autumn prac-
tices.
