EAST CAROLINIAN
'Unwritten Law9 Takes
Lead Over Regulations
In Riving some fore-thought to our edi-
torial topic this week, we are aware of its
dangers its dangers to the newspaper
and to us as individuals.
We anticipate opposition from certain
levels of students, faculty, and administra-
tive sfcaff. However, we feel that the expres-
sion shown here is typical of more than the
majority of the students attending East Car-
olina. Whether or not this majority will stand
up for what they believe we do not know. If
we meet the expected opposition, we will meet
itas simply as that, knowing, at least, how
mfctny of the students feel.
We therefore feel free to voice our opin-
ion on a topic which merited lengthy discus-
sion at a recent meeting of the Dean's Advis-
ory Council.
The topic: college drinking regulations
and the extent of their enforcement.
Under the regulations governing both
nun and women, it is clearly stated in the
"Key" that students shall "refrain from be-
ing under the influence of intoxicating bev-
erages while attending the collelge Also,
under men student dormitory rules we note
that "alcoholic beverages will not be kept or
used in the dormitories This is all dearly
stilted. But by some unwritten law we know
that men students indulge in alcoholic bever-
ages and return to the dormitories unnoticed
and unbothered by hall proctors or counsel-
ors. If a rriale dormitory student becomes un-
ruly other residents take it upon themselves
to see that he does not disturb the remaining
residents.
Apparently it is all right for the men
students to do this, as long as the drinking is
not done on campus and the alcoholic bever-
age is not brought on campus.
In essence the same regulations apply
to both men and women, but not in reality.
Perhaps the 'under the influence' clause is
neglected for the men or does not have the
same interpretation for the women. As we
understand it, the Women's Judiciary con-
siders a woman student under the influence
whether she has one drink or ten! And what
does this mean? Automatic restriction with
no leeway.
College should be the place where young
adults mature. But is this possible? Is ma-
turity realized through a system where rules
and regulations determine everything you
should or should not do? Practically the only
prerogative a woman student enjoys here is
deciding what she will wear to class each day
and this we admit is limited.
We cannot be 'big' when we are treated
like 'little' people. Our college days should
be the days of learninglearning as much
as we can how to live in society. But, we
cannot learn as long as we are sheltered by
an institution that clings to old-fashioned and
puritanical ideals.
The rules and regulations which govern
East Carolina students are unrealistic It is
not realistic to enforce a rule with terms
like 'under the influence' which can be in-
terpreted in such varying degrees.
East Carolina's drinking regulations are
about as realistic as prohibition, which most
agree does more harm than good. The harm
in prohibition we feel merits no further dis-
cussion here.
But, in comparison, women students
who are going to drink, regardless of rules,
will find a wayin cars and other places
that are not so public. It is done and we who
will not admit the extent to which it is done
are fools not facing reality.
East Carolina is not such a little school
anymore. It has changed. Consequently, many
of its little rules and regulations will inevit-
ably have to change. As other schools (es-
pecially state-supported) have 'loosened'
tight rules, East Carolina must.
Students Should Witness
Film, Then Form Opinions
Last week we made a statement con-
cerning the film "Operation Abolition" which
we would like to correct or further explain.
We stated that the film presents an unbiased
recount of the picketing, mobbing, and riot-
ing which took place in San Francisco against
the House Un-American Activities Commit-
tee. The film, of course, is sponsored by the
Committee and naturally presents scenes
which are favoraible to the Committee.
If this is slanting the facts and giving
them before there is basis for them, then the
film is biased. Anyone who sees the film and
believes there is no basis for the statements
made in it by J. Edgar Hoover and others
may rightfully hold the opinion that it is
biased. We only charge students and faculty
to see this movie, and formulate their own
opinions.
Due to the controversial nature of the
film there has been distinct opposition to it
Ertced by the faculty teund administrative staff.
bese opposers feel that the film is too bi-
for East Carolina students to see. If
rtudents ire not mature enough bo be
Jo this film, (then they need this
type of opposition to determine
see or fail to see it. If the stu-
ire enough to see the film, then
Ihem see it?
'Washington Clowns'
Student Pictures Controversial
Film As f A Bit Of Propaganda9
Dear Editor:
If things gto as planned, tomorrow
nigiut Bast Carolina will be exposed
to 'Operation Abolition a film, which
is in our opinion one of the greatest
farces in the fristory of our Wash-
ington clowns.
The East Carolinian receives ex-
change papers (from other colleges
each day. We hove carefully noted
the editoriatl response in these papers
following the showing of this film
on each campus by .the House Un-
jAtnerican Activities Ooanonittee Huck-
ster Pulton Lewis, III.
On each campus we have reviewed,
the response in the student paper
follows Mr. Lewis like a bush fire.
There must be some students who are
taken in by this man, but we are
G tappy to report that we have yet to
see an editorial from our exchange
'list which agrees with his practices.
One student paper after another
takes a stand' in violent protest to
the film and its presentation.
We are deligihited that the film is
coming to East Carolina, for it will
give the students here an opportun-
ity to see an extreme example of just
how much (the public can be duped if
skilled propagandists are allowed to
operate in our governmental agencies.
We certainly hope there are no
students fr.fere who will be taken in by
this bit of propaganda. For those
students who are ultra-conservative
in their views and narrow minded in
their thinking we suggest a trip to
the library to vie withi the sensible
portion of the student body for pub-
Mcatons containing critical analysis
of this film and of the HUAC.
Personal Opinion
Provokes Reader
Dear Editor:
I suppose .that the remarks of col-
umnistsoften expressing ill-con-
sidered, casual, and very personal
opinionsare meant to provoke and
stimulate their readers. If so, Miss
Harvey's remarks about Separate
Tables have been successful, for they
have provoked me. I want to assure
Miss Harvey that I was awake
throughout the performanceindeed,
I wouldn't have missed a word of it. I
question Miss Harvey's insinuation
that the audience was not awake.
Did she canvass the audience on all
three nights. I know a number of
persons who were there and wide
awakeindeed, they assured me that
tfr.fey found the drama interesting.
The judgment that Separate Tables
was not an entertaining play I can-
not swallow either. The play has had
successful runs in both London and
New York. The audiences involved in
those runs surely found themselves
entertained. Miss Harvey's under-
standing of entertainment is certain-
ly not mine. I believe that entertain-
ment includes in its scope the plays
of Sophocles and the musicals of
Hammersftein and Rogers, the sing-
ing of Perry Como and the playing of
Byron Janis, the portraits of Rem-
brandt and the colors of Georgia O
Keefeindeed, I am emfbarrassed by
riches when I think of all that en-
tertainment includes. I think that it
would be much more accurate if Miss
Harvey would say that she did not
find the (play entertaining, that she
was not in any mood to delve into a
fascinating study of personalities and
Vttew interplay. I naturally resent
Mss Harvey's foisting of her opinion
upon all members of the audience.
Yours very truly,
Ceonge A. Cook
Fulton Lewis III, who will narrate
the filom and attempt to manipulate
the minds and emotions of tihe audi-
ence, is quite skilled in this sort of
thing.
Perhaps some of us will recall one
of last year's Danforth Lecturers,
Owen Latimore, who spent three days
ere attempting to inform the stu-
dent body of just such pit vipers as
the ones HUAC supports. For those
who are able to find a copy, we
suggest a quick plunge into Mr. Lat-
imore's book Ordeal by Slander.
Again we caution the student body
to be alemt and skeptical when view-
ing and listening to the foHowing
commentary. A furry animal with
four legs can be called a 'cur a 'mon-
grel a 'beast or a 'menace' and
still be only the neighbor's harmless
pet dog. Watch out for this sort of
thing
Sincerely,

Version Of Actual Hearing

E
To the Editor:
I read witlh much interest your
editorial in last week's issue endors-
ing .the film "Operation Abolition
and urging all our students not to
miss it when it is shown on campus
this weekend.
I like to think that a college cam-
ipus is a place devoted to an unre-
mitting- search for truth just as I
like to think of my country and all
its aigencies as being above any act
of deception or subterfuge in their
dealings with us as American citi-
zens. Truth, unvarnished and unal-
loyed, is our greatest safeguard in
these perilous dayson the college
campus and in the halls of govern-
ment.
I say this because everyone who
expects to see "Operation Abolition"
should be forewarned that many of
our leading newspapers and maga-
zines tave criticized it as a badly
distorted and misleading version of
what luappened at the House Un-
American Activities Committee hear-
ing' in San Francisco on May 12,
1960. lAmwng the numerous voices
raised in protest against the mislead-
ing impressions created by this film
1 ave been those of the Catholic Je-
suit weekly "Aflnerka "The Report-
er the Washington Post, the "New
Republic and the "Christian Cen-
tury The National Council of
CLturohes has urged Protestant mini-
sters "not to exhibit the film unless
a full and fair presentation of all
the facts is made
Briefly, what happened in San
Francisco on the day in question is
that a group of students from most
of tf. fe important colleges in the Bay
area staged a protest demonstration
against wthat it considered the un-
fair tactics of the Committee. Fire
'hoses and police clubs were used to
quell the demonstration, and several
of the student demonstrators were
booked or disorderly conduct. Every-
one admits that tfce students behaved
badly, though reports disagree about
the atmount of provocation to which
they were subjected before the dem-
onstration erupted in violence.
The film, which was made from
subpoenaed newsreel shorts, gives the
impression, I understand, of being an
official release of the Committee,
since Qhiairanan Walter figures prom-
inently in it. Actually, this is not so,
according to 'Time" magatine, which
says that the film' is a private finan-
cial venture, though made witftv the
approval and (help, of the Committee.
By the middle of March its sponsors
had realized a profit of over 20 thou-
sand dollars from the venture.
The message of "Operation Aboli-
tion" is that ttoe students who rioted
were trying to disrupt the House
Committee in, its sitting and made
their attempt e&tiher as active Com-
munists or as dupes of Communists,
who allegeddy led the riot. Marquis
Childs, the prominent columnist, has
charged, however, tihfct according to
a report made by the general coun-
sel's office of the Depanrtment of
Defense, the House Committee seems
to have encouraged the riot with
the apparent end of showing how
grave the opposition to the bearing
was.
At any rate, the charge of Commu-
nism, apparently documented by the
film appears to be largely unproved.
Mayor Christopher of San Francisco,
according to "Time has acknowl-

How, one may ask, could "Opera-
itios Abolition" be dishonest? Ac-
cording to its critics, it is dishonest
in the following ways:
(1) Events are shown out of their
real sequence ito create the impres-
sion that the disorder was of a dif-
ferent nature and more serious than
it actually was. According to Moon,
far example, a large crowd that Is
shown being restrained by mounted
police actually gathered on May 14,
and not May 12, though the movie
presents this crowd as though it had
gathered on the earlier date. At an-
other place itfhe movie shows a noisy
demonstration as if it occurred im-
mediately after the opening of the
Committee meeting. Actually, accord-
ing to Moon, It happened at a noon
recess.
(2) Events are telescoped so that
misleading impressions result Moon
says that the movie shows a witness
answering a question put to him by
the counsel for the Committee and
that the answer given in the movie
was actually to different question
put bo him at a different time.
(3) The narration is loaded with
emotionality and distortions of the
truth. Moon' says that at one point the
narrator remarks, The Communist
agitators give new orders now to the
students to sit down with their backs
to the fire boss and put their hands

Reader's Guide" under Moving Pic-
tures. Moon's article in the "Chris-
tian Century" for March 15, 1961,
along with the issue of the "Chris-
tian Century" for March IB, 1961,
placed on my English 220B reserve
in the library for convenient refer-
ence. We had best inform ourselves
aftead of time about the controversial
features of Operation Abolition
since according to tfce "Christian
Century it has been deluged with
letters from people who rose, after
a viewing of the film, to point out
some of its distortions and were scath-
ingly denounced by the audience.
This gives some idea of the emotion-
al wallop which the film carries and
points to its dubious intellectual val-
ue in identifying the enemy and sug-
gesting a rational program for set-
ting up our defenses.
A final word: according to "Time

Station now being constructed near

gram, emphasizing its development,
purpose, problems, and rewards, at
tihe spring meeting of the Industrial
Arts department Wednesday night,
April 19.
Faculty members of the department
and more than 150 students were
present to llear the talk.
Mr. Sencindiver, who has a long
technical and administrative back-
ground with the U. Si. Information
Agency both in this country and
abroad, described tihte primary pur-
peee of the VOjAi as that of informing
the peoples of foreign nations of the
desire of this country to remain
friendly and peacefuL
Among major problems of the VOA,
he said, are jamming of radio sig-
nals by Communist nations, the diffi-
culties encountered in broadcasting
in 38 different languages, and the
securing of well qualified technically
trained employees.
He described the $26,000,000.00 in-
stallation to be completed here in
December of 1962 as "the most con-
centrated radio power in the world

the heroic daughter of King Thebes,
who insists on burying her brother
(who was named a traitor to the City
of Thebes). By doing this Antigone
risks her life because this is iu
violation of the ancient custom for-
bidding burial to enemies and trait-
ors. But to the average student of
our modern generation this act seems
fairly ridiculous; to us family ties
are not this extreme and her actions
look stupid.
Throughout the play ,Antigone re-
mains firm and although everything
and everyone are against her deci-
sion, she never permits doubts or
hesitations to change her mind. Most
of us believe "if you can't lick 'em,
join 'em, and lAntigone seems to be

Martyr Complex
When death seems small compared
to the fulfillment of her wishes, and
she is ready .to dSe, without regret,
for her conviction and ideal, many
will see her as a heroic person. Yet
there is still another impression,
Antigone's main flaw lies in an in-
solence toward civil authority, her
determination not merely to complete
t duty, but also unjustly put to
death for it. Thus another descrip-
tion is added; Antigone is a rebel and
also seems to have a martyr complex.
After the above discussion we real-
ize that lAintigone is not to be under-
stood as a perfect character. But she
does possess a strength of charac-
ter and is a powerful individual.
Many scholars and students of
Greek drama have varied opinions as
to what the character Antigone,
really is; and after studying the play,
most of us reach any of the above
conclusions. But whatever a student
ees in her character, the end will
always be, "She's very human and

ing the Playhouse production on May

Buc Nine Wins On Road: Track Team In Close Victor

f : : :&':
By RICHARD BOYD 9Vfe
Crayton's Nohitter
After watching the efforts of crafty Larry Crayton in
his no-hitter against Appalachian last week this writer was
sold on Larry as a future major league prospect. The hard
throwing southpaw combined a blazing fastball and a sharp
breaking curve ball that stunned the opposition. The seven inn-
ing contest saw Pumpsie (as dadled by his teammates) move the
ball around the plate marvelously.
It was a fairly cool day for this particular time of the
year, and a brisk wind was blowing toward rightfield to aid the
left handed hitters on both sides. But the Apps could not pro-
ceed to hit a long fly, or for that matter many balls out of the
infield. Although the wind was agladnst Larry's fast ball it did
not seem to hinder his efforts in the least, with the exception
of the few bases on balls that he gave the Apps.
In this particular contest the Bucs won 6-0, but could
collect only two vital base hits themselves. These singles happen
to be for the distance as newcomer Cotton Clayton and veteran
Jim Martin, both southpaw swingers, put high fly balls with
the brisk wind in right field and collected round trippers. The
former hit the jack pot, with a grandslammer, while basket-
ball star Clayton drove in the other two with his two run smash.
With the aid of these two big blows Crayton opened up at
the expense of the bewildered Appalachian nine. Nathan Green
a strong righthander hurled a two hitter in the nightcap of this
twinbill giving the Bucs a sweep of the day's works.
Wake Forest vs. ECC
Coach Jim Maiiory's nine faced a test this week that
could determine just how good the Pirate's are. The Demon
Deacons from Wake Forest faced EC on Tuesday. Unless the
Buc mentor changed his mind, neither Crayton or Green was
to throw this contest. Instead, the EC coach was to go along
with football star quarterback, Dan Rouse, a rangy lefty with
plenty of promise. Coach Mallory indicated that he would use
Crayton and Green for the conference tilts that the Bucs were
scheduled to play this week.
Saturday's twinbill with Western Carolina saw the Bucs
victorious by a 9-2 and 8-3 margin over the Catamounts. This
left the baseballers in a first pllace position with four impressive
wins to their credit. However, Wake Forest is much stronger
than any team in the North State with the exception of ECC.
The Deacons possess a power in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
It would have been a prestige victory if the Bucs defeated Wake
on Tuesday.
In one of last season's contests with the Deacons the ACC
representative had to rally for a close 4-3 decision in 13 innings.
In this gjame Nathan Green pitched 7 innings of no hit ball
against the opposition. The Deacons come to Guy Smith
Stadium for a night contest later on in the season.
EC's pitching staff has probably exhibited the best show-
ing in the state this season. In the first four conference tilts a
Pirate foursome of Crayton, Green, Cnayton again, and then
West went the distance as the Pirates daiptured their first four
contests with ease. As this column was going out, the team was
scheduled to play Catawba in Salisbury.
The hitting has been nothing short of sensational. Gary
Pierce and Floyd Wicker hit for the distance against Western
Carolina to bring the homerun total to 10 in 8 games. Besides
the two clouts in Saturday's wins, the previous homers have
been three by Cockrell, two by Jim Martin, one each by Cotton
Clayton and Larry Crayton, and another by Pierce.
Coach Jim Mallory seems satisfied with his fielding
situation. Floyd Wicker has filled the gap at third base and
Cotton Clayton is doing a fine job in rightfield to relieve the
team from the two openings in which they were left last sea-
son. Glenn Bass and Spencer Gtoyftord continue to shine at short-
stop and second base, respectively, and Jim Martin has con-
tinued to play his usual fine defensive game at first base.
Tennis And Track Teams Wins
Speaking of playing Wake Forest in athletic events, the
Winston-Salem school is having it rough against the Bucs on
the tennis courts. The Demon Deacons were victims for the
.second time this season against the men of Coach Wendell Carr
last Friday. This time it was a close 5-4 decision for the Pirate
netters. In their initial meet the ECC team easily turned back
the opposition in a match on the Greenville court.
The track team won ta tri-meet against AC and High
Point Saturday. It was the first victory of the year for the Buc
cinder men. Ned Pickford was the big show for the ECC team
with 18 points, including first place showings in the 220 and
100 yard dashes. The latter run was a tie with Ned's team mate
Tom Michell. The tri-meet was held in Wilson.

IN, Catawba
Defeated By
Strong Pirates
Newcomers West and Wicker Shine
Coach Jim Maiiory's red hot EC
baseballers claimed a double win over
WC on Saturday, and a solo victory
over Catawba last Tuesday. In doing
so, the defending Nlorth State Lea-
gue champions remained unbeaten in
loop play with a 5-0 mark. Tfhie Sat-
urday afternoon twinbill saw Larry
Crayton claim his fourth win against
one set-back in the opener, and Lacy
West pick up his first victory in the
nightcap. Floyd Wicker, Gary Pierce,
smashed home ruins against the Cata-
mounts. The final scores were 8-2 and
9-3.
Homers Aid Bucs
An assault of 17 hits including four
homers were mainly responsible in
the Pirate's 19-5 thumping of Cat-
awba 's Indians. The Salisbury school
started their ace righthander Horace
Medford wfr.to downed the Bucs twice
last season, and had been credited
with 15 consecutive college victories
against no losses. But Monday after-
noon's clash saw the ace righthander
Ko 'to the showers as Cotton Clayton,
Merle Bynium, Gary Pierce, and Char-
lie Johnson hit round trippers for the
visitors.
Nathan Green went the distance for
EC in recording his second win of
the season against no defeats. The
curve balling right-hader could coast
with the substantial lead that his
hard hitting mates had given him.
Cotton Clayton's two run homer and
two run triple, and Merle Bynum's
tremendous 390 foot grandslammer
in the eighth provided the Bucs with
their big- blows in fihe Catawba con-
test. It marked the latter's only time
at bat during the entire game. It was
Clayton's second homer of the season,
and Bynum's initial clout in 1961.
Rouse Against Wake Forest
Catawba, experiencing one of their
worse campaigns could touch Green
for only eight hits. The superior EC
nine played Wake Forest on Tuesday
in Winston-Salem and yesterday the
Pirates were scheduled to play High
Point's Panthers in a twin-hill at
High Point. Coach Jim Mallory was
expected to throw Dan Rouse against
the Deacons with Larry Crayton and
either Earl Boykin or Lacy West
ready for High Point. The EC nine
had clouted 14 home runs in eight
pames prior to the Wake Forest en-
iraement.

Pirates Strong In
Hitting And Pitching
The East Carolina, baseball nine,
North State Conference Champions
for the past two seasons, opened de-
fense of its crown here last Monday,
sweeping a double-header from Ap-
palachian to give Up Bucs a fast 2-0
league record. The double win Sat-
urday over WC gave the Bucs a 6-1
mark.
The .Pirates opened the season with
a 13-8 win over Springfield College's
touring Maroons. In a tussle with
Camp Lejeune's Marines, EC met its
only defeat tihus far this season, by
a 5-2 score. Five straight victories, J
one over the University of Delaware'
on their annual southern tour, the
ipair over AippalacbJan, and the two
over WC give itfhe Bucs their 6-1 slate.
Off the six Pirate wins, three have
been shutouts. Delaware failed to
score in a 20-0 EC romp, and Appa-
lachian was shut out twice, 6-0 and
13-0.
Larry "Pumpsie" Crayton, Coach
Jim Maiiory's mound ace, (has gained
three of the Pirates' four wins. The
stocky left hander looked brilliant
in has last effort, a no4ut perform-
ance against the Appalachian Moun-
taineers.
Leading the furious hitting barrage
(for tike Bucs in the Apps contest,
wtich has seen EC blast out 57 hits
nd 44 runs, is Jimmy Martin, Gary
Pierce, Glenn Bass, Wally Cockrell,
Spencer Gaylord, and Charlie John-
son. Martin leads the sextet with a
.500 average, which includes two
grand slam homers. Cockrell also has
three homers to his credit.
Charles Holliday ibas ones again
,p.roven without a doubt that he is
the champion of champions in E.C.
table tennis. Holliday already having
won two men's singles tournaments
this year, easily won the tournament
od champions April 18. This tourna-
ment was composed of the top six
players at EjC.C. Holliday played all
of the other top five players, win-
ning a total of 10 out of 11 matches.
His only loss was surrendered to
Nelson Ttugwell. These wins rank
Holliday as E.Cs top ranked player.
Nelson Tugwell, ranked second
last year, again captured this posi-
tion by defeating Bowie Martin, Mal-
colm Griffith, Zuill Bailey, and Wil-
liam Stancil. Although dropping a
game to each of these players except
Bailey, Tugwell displayed the fine
form and control for which he is
known.
Malcolm Griffith, a freshman, sur-
prised many and overcame his lack of
experience to win the third ranked
position. This spin piayer played ex-
cellent table tennis and defeated Bo-
wie Martin in an important match
by a score of 27-25 to take the third
game after each player had taken
one game. Griffith then defeated
Stancil and Bailey to hold his third
position.
William Stancil, a second quarter
freshman, took a game from Griffith
and Tugwell but was unable to keep
his game controlled. His wins from
Martin and Bailey placed him fourtih.
Bowie Martin took fifth position
by defeating Zuill Bailey. Martin gave
good games to Griffith and Tugwell
but was unable to go all the way to
take the necessary two out of three.
Zuill Bailey, last year's fifth rank-
ed player, dropped one notch1 ths year,
and is now E.Cs sixth ranked player.
Player's qualify to play in the
Tournament of Champions only by
possessing outstanding ability. These
players become eligible to participate
in this event by being winner or
runner-up of the quarterly tourna-
ments or by accpiring necessary points
by being a quarter finalist several
times.
The EC track team rejuvenated
themselves Saturday afternoon by
winning a triangle meet over AC and
High Point at Wihwn. The victory
was the first of the season for the
Pirate cinder men. Bast Carolina
scored 58 1 3 points against Atlan-
tic Obi-istian's 52 13 tallies and the
Panthers 51 13.
Tie three first piece margins in
the ole vault aided the Bucs win
br njendously. Ches Craves, Lee Ba-
con, and Ned Pickford won this event
that order. The latter was the
scorer for the Pirates as the
Freshman star scored 15 Vi points
for the winners. Pickford, who hails
fron Washington, D.C. won the 100
,2nd 220 yard dashes, whale finishing
second in the low hurdles, and Ned's
vault performance finished his in-
dividual scoring for the afternoon.
AC's top performer was John Es-
kew who scored 11 points with his
.performance in the low and high
hurdles in which he placed first in
these events, and the Bulldog fin-
ished out his scoring with a second
i ,iace tie in the poie vault event with
Pickford.
