Enrollment Rises
With 2,548 students registered
for work. East Carolina College has
the largest summer-school enroll-
ment in its history, according to in-
formation from the office of Regis-
trar John Home.
The 2.548 students now taking
courses on the campus represent an
increase of 401 over the 2,147 who
were enrolled at the same period
last year.
Indications are that the second
summer session, beginning July 12
and extending through August 17
will also show a gain in number of
students.

In a light turnout at the polls on
Tuesday, June 13, virtually un-
opposed candidates were elected
to serve the summer school stu-
dents in the various Student Gov-
ernment Association posts. With
a total vote of only 101 ballots of a
student body of over 2500, Otis
Strother was elected to head the
summer school SGA.
The executive officers include
Strother; Tommy Mallison, vice-
president; Nancy Coggins, treas-
urer; and Mary John Best, secre-
tary.
Other positions filled include day
student senators, Merle Summers
and Fred Daniel; residence sena-
tors Barbara Ryan, Walter Rose,
and Dave Nanney. Presently, there
is some confusion as to the repre-
sentation of the graduate students,
since none chose to run for posi-
tions on the SGA.

Student Affairs, is the advisor for

In an interview .elections com-
mittee head, Ross Thomas, appear-
ed pleased with the results of the
elections, considering the lack of
interest shown by both students
and candidates. He said, "The lack
of interest among candidates and
students could account for the
relatively small percentage (3.9) of
the total student body that voted;
however, it seems to be more than
what I had expected for the sum-
mer session Thomas also noted
that . . there seemed to be more
students interested in voting than
there were candidates interested in
running far a position
Strother To Serve Students
Otis Strother, a senior music
major heads the 1961-82 school year
SGA as president. Otis has been
active in SGA work since he was a
freshman. As a freshman, he
served as class vice-president, then
was elected to serve his sophomore
class as vice-president, and then as
president. Strother has served as
secretary-treasurer and president
of the Men's Judiciary Committee
during the past two years.
Otis is a member of the Circle K
club, a national service organiza-
tion, and a member of Lambda Chi
Alpha social fraternity.
Strother is planning to advance
some of his ideas for a better
operated Student Government Asso-
ciation during the summer, which
will as an end result, aid him in
the operation of the regular term
SGA work.
Vice-President Mallison
T. Clyde Mallison, known by EC
students as Tommy, has been active
in SGA affairs for the past year.
Mallison was elected as Freshman
Senator, and holds the same posi-
tion as Sophomore Senator in the
Strother regular term administra-
tion. He is also co-chairman of the
Entertainment Committee.
Tommy is a sophomore social
studies major, and is a member of
Kappa Alpha Order.
Sec reta ry-Tr easu ror
Elected to serve the summer
school students for the second time
as treasurer was Nancy Coggins, a
junior grammer education major.
Nancy served as SGA External
Affairs Committe head under the
past administration of SGA presi-
dent Jim Speight. Next year she
will serve with the Strother admin-
istration as Secretary.
Nancy is a college marshal and
a member of Chi Omega social
sorority.
Mary Best will occupy the posi-
tion of Summer School SGA secre-
tary. Mary John, a senior grammer
education major, was responsible

tary of the North State Student
Legislature.
Miss Best is a sister of Chi
Omega sorority.
Senators
Merle Summers and Fred Daniel

Vice-President for the 61-62 year.
Fred Daniel, a senior, gained his
leadership ability and experience
from serving as president of his
fraternity.
Elected to serve as residence
Senators were Barbara Ryan, Wal-
ter Rose, and Dave Nanney. Rose
has had previous exeprience with
the SGA, and was instrumental in
some of the arrangements for the
recenty held welcome for the base-
ball team. Rose will serve on the
entertainment committee in the
Strother administration. Neither
Miss Ryan or Mr. Nanney have had
experience with the East Carolina
SGA.

Watery Reflections
A Ripple in Pond Scum
We receive all manner of propaganda
through the mail. Recently we got a pamph-
let from the Conservative Party, a national
party organized to repeal income tax. We
also constantly receive a newsletter from
Washington, D. C, called Human Events, a
bias view of Democrats by pious Republicans.
Since we are considered to be in a Democratic
area, we fail to receive a publication by pious
Democrats (we read their biased views in the
"News and Observer) This propaganda does
serve to show that there is controversy in the
outside world. East Carolina College is a
refuge where students may never become
accosted by controversies. The phrase"still
water runs deep" may be true. But it is also
a fact that "still water" often becomes stag-
nate.
The recent SGA elections was another in-
stance that pointed out the lack of student
interest andlpu'ticipation. Can this be laid
to blame on the nebulousness of summer ses-
sion students? Perhaps. Summer school is
made up of (1) East Carolina students of low
academic rating (probation) trying to get back
into regular sessionthis means their time is
spent either on studying so they can build up
their quality points or on a continuation of
their boozing it up at Dora's from last quar-
ter; (2) students from other colleges trying to
gain some effortless quality pointstheir
allegiance is not at East Carolina and they
see no need to take part in its activities; (3)
graduate students trying to earn their Master's
they are concerned with acquiring thei
qualities needed to operate successfully on the
outside and have no time for petty campus
life; (4) teachers trying to renew their certifi-
catestheir graduate days are behind them
(and they are usually behind the times) and
they live on the outside; and (5) students try-
ing to graduate early. Admittedly, this is
quite a conglomerate to interest in student
government and its affairs. But this interest
is also lacking in our regular sessions.
Whose fault is it? The students? Perhaps.
The SGA could do a lot. They could instigate
a campaign or student awareness. They
could begin with themselves. During elections
candidates could make issues, raise issues,
raise lags for rallying around; candidates
could make themselves known to their fellow
students, instead of their usual mystery-man
contest that allows the voter to check their
meaningless name out of a list of similar
faceless names. A method used in other col-
leges to achieve this result is campus political
parties. Parties could be organized here, so
formulated as to take advantage of the block
votes of the various fraternities and sororities
and incorporate the potential power of the In-
dependents. Perhaps this would present an
opportunity for students, independent or de-
pendent, to take part in elections, in SGA
functions, to take part in East Carolina
College.
A start some place has to be made to show
the student body the value of speaking their
mind. College ought to be the place where the
mind is exercised. There are very few stimu-
lating class room discussions. There arc very
few stimulating elections. Apparently stu-
dents are either dull or they don't know how
to speak, or there isn't enough to speak about
East Carolina College has too long been term-
ed a mill. And even a miH needs running
water to operate.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Response To Orr And Film
To the Editor:
In her letter to the editor in The
East Carolinian for May 11, 1961,
Miss Betsy Orr concluded that Dr.
Poindexter found it "very difficult"
to "execute self-control After
studying the film "Operation
Abolition" and its manipulation of
both picture and word images, I
find the young lady's preoccupation
with control very interesting. Dr.
Poindexter, no doubt, was also con-
cerned with the word but in ano-
ther of its aspects, that of con-
trolling the thoughts and senti-
ment of the audience through the
use of various shades of the truth.
The point that prompted Dr.
Poindexter's questions and Mr.
Lewis' answers was the fact that
the narrator of the film called a
student guilty of an act of which
he was later acquitted. This, of
course, is a violation of the precept
that the accused is innocent until
found guilty through due process
of law. This violation would seem
to be much more deplorable than
the indecorous behavior of which
Dr. Poindexter has been accused.
It is a violation of the conception
of a just judiciary system, a system
which does not seek to control the
public's opinion of a man's guilt or
innocence. Consider the journal-
ist's use of th word alleged.
Miss Orr writes that "Before Mr
Lewis had parted his lips to answer,
Dr. Poindexter had rudely inter-
rupted to answer his own questions,
the way he wanted them answered
This is incorrect. Br. Poindexter
specifically questioned Mr. Lewis
about one student and waited tor
him to answer. Mr. Lewis chose to
answer in terms of many students.
The rights of an individual were
under debate. One individual had
been accused of an offense. He had
been singled out in the film. Why;
then, avoid answering in terms of
that individual and that offense?
Was it because Mr. Lewis did not
have the answer which would con-
vey the needed impression? Mr.
Lewis did "part his lips" but he did
not answer Dr. Poindexter's ques-
tion.
I cannot believe that the reflec-
tion on Dr. Poindexter and, theo-
retically, on East Carolina College
is the one that Miss Orr suggests.
It seems that Dr. Poindexter's con-
cern for the adherence to the con-
stitutional rights of the citizens of
this country is enough in itself to
prompt both admiration and re-
spect. Not as an agitator but as a
perpetuator of our freedoms, Dr.
Poindexter reflects a very favor-
able impression.
Miss Orr concludes her note of
protest with a very timely and a
very meaningful quotation from
President Kennedy. She writes
that President Kennedy said that
"so many Americans accept the
right of freedom while they remain
ignorant to the responsibility to
our nation which goes with free-
dom It should be rather ironic
to anyone who has been associated
with Dr. Poindexter, either inside
or outside the classroom, that the
word ignorant could even be re-
motely coupled with his name. Dr.
Poindexter's intellect, his social
consciousness, and his prceptive in-
sight into man and his problems
make that inference ridiculous. No,
it appears that Dr. Poindexter is
not ignorant of his responsibility to
our nation nor to the freedoms that
this nation protects. His actions
rather reveal his concern with the
responsibility of which Mr. Ken-
nedy speaks.

Upcoming Flicks
Touch of Larceny (Paramount)
When Royal Naval Comm. Max
Easton (James Mason) devises a
nifty money making scheme, come-
dy is in the making. Through his
ingenious method Easton appears
to be involved in traitorous do-
ings. Easton manages to be seen
talking to a suspicious looking Rus-
sian (who doesn't understand a
word of English), and then he
loses Confidential government data
(which he hides behind his office
files.) These traitorous actions put
the Press in a libelous lather, and
Easton then sues for defamation.
Tliat Kind of Woman (Paramount)
Paramount brings Sophia Loren
and Tab Hunter together, although
they seem Unmatched. Seductive
Sophia is hardly the type to cast
opposite the boyish Tab. They meet
in the cjub car of a Miami-to-New
York train. Tab hardly looks old
enough to drink, but he informs
Sophia that "I am old enough to dp
anything So that leaves Sophia
to pick up the Tab.
The year is' 1944. Tab, a young
paratrooper, is fearless, brainless,
and moneyless. Sophia is the mis-
tress of an industrial tycoon
(George Sanders) who keeps her
in a fashionable Manhattan pent-
house. Tab, smitten with Sophia,
follows her faithfully over Central
Park, Staten Island, and Grand
Central Station, pleading with her
to marry aim.

"Let the Administration do it
This is just speculation. But we do have
a problem with the seeming immutability of

more active verbalizing from the students (of

The college offered June 6-16 its
annual workshop on "Facts About
Alcohol Co-sponsored by the
college and the N. C. Alcoholic
Rehabilitation Program, the work-
shop was presented for the eleven-
th consecutive year on the campus
here Dr. N. M. Jorgensen, direc-
tor of the department of health and
physical education acted as direc-
tor.
The two-week event was designed
especially for teachers and prospec-
tive teachers whose responsibili-
ties include teaching about alcohol.
Sociological, psychological, and
physiological problems arising
from the use and misuse of bever-
age alcohol were discussed. The
approach was objective and con-
structive.
Students enrolled in the work-
shop received, upon completion of
requirements, three quarter hours
of college credit.
In addition to Dr. Jorgensen, lec-
turers and seminar leaders included
Dr. Norbert L. Kelly, associate di-
rector, and George H. Adams, edu-
cational director, of the N. C. Alco-
holic Rehabilitation Program; and
other authorities on the study of
alcohol and its related problems.
Among the topics considered were
"Some Aspects in the Causation and
Treatment of Alcoholism "Social

The workshop at East Carolina
was one of three to be offered this
summer under the sponsorship of
colleges in the state and the N. C.

Others took place at North Carolina
College, Durham, June 9-21, and at

SPORTS REVIEW
by Richard Boyd
A Story of Courage by The National Champions
Very seldom does a sports writer for the East Carolinian receive the
chance to give outstanding recognition in varsity participation in a Sum-
mer newspaper. But holding over the regular baseball season with a
talliant tournament display that brought this school our first national
championship makes the job a privilege and a pleasure.
The courageous NAIA champions won the hard way as we all know
The men of Coach Jim Mallory and his fantastic 13 played incredible
baseball in Sioux City, Iowa to sew up the title and take home all the
marbles with the Most Valuable Player award to Larry Crayton, and
the team sportsmanship award also going to East Carolina.
After winning the regional playoffs in Atlanta, Georgia, the Bucs
were invited for the Iowa trip. Carrying only 13 players placed the
odds against EC from the start of the first pitch in the tournament at
Sioux City. And to make matters even worse, Glenn Bass, Pirate lead-
off hitter and star shortstop, suffered a severe leg injury removing the
speedy Buc from the lineup after the initial contest.
This left only 12 players around for Coach Mallory to display Char-
ley Johnson received an injury in another contest causing the Buc
catcher to play with the pain most of the series. However, the defects
of the late campaign on Mallory's men could not be over-shadowed by
what the Pirate's coach said to the many who greeted him on campus
upon the team's return "It took raw courage explained the Dean of
Men. He went on to tell about Lacy West, who came off the mound and
promptly collected 8 for 17 at the plate to help lead the savage Pirate
attac on teams represented from throughout the nation. Imagine a
Pitcher playing left field and hitting like that in the National finals
West was forced to the outer gardens when Bass received his injury
Cotton Clayton who saw action at the third base position in his hih
school days played the hot corner spot after being removed from right
field. This sent the dependable freshman sensation, Floyd Wicker to
the short-stop position. These men came through like real champs after
the replacements.
It is evident that Larry Crayton was the greatest thing in the tourna-
ment without a doubt. But as Larry said in his remarks to the audience
that greeted the team on campus, "There were 13 most valuable players "
Truer words could not have been spoken by a more modest individual.
Here is some proof of Larry's quote. Starting with catcher Charley
Johnson the Buc backstop, caught both games Saturday night with his
injury for almost 5 hours of hard playing baseball behind that plate
His hitting and defensive ability was another prime factor in the Buc's
championship win.
First baseman Jim Martin carried over his brilliant fielding and
hitting into the tournament. Second baseman Spencer Gaylord proved
most valuable throughout the season and gave the Buc fans plenty to
talk about on his last game homer that easily cleared the 350 left field
fence at Sioux City.
Probably the individual with the worst luck in tournament play was
Glenn Bass. Glenn's injury had him seated on the bench for almost the
entire series. But even on the bench the senior infielder was an inspira-
tional figure to Coach Mallory's gallant crew. There were Major League
scouts who had their eyes opened for many outstanding individuals on
the respective teams. One of the hottest prospects in the tournament
was EC's freshman sensation third sacker Floyd Wicker. It was Wicker's
home run and triple in the Omaha University contest that aided the
Bucs to this win.
men speaking of the outfielders' play of the Pirates, the first name
mentioned at the tourney was Cotton Clayton, the powerful hitting right
fielder. All Cotton did in two of the Pirate games was smash a grand-
Hammer that won for the Bucs in one contest, against Winnona, Minne-
sota, and drive in 6 runs with 4 hits against Sacramento State in the
final game.
Merrill Bynum, the Pirates fine reserve for most of the season
fiwmd a spot in the line-up at tournament time and did a valuable bit
tf clutch hitting that was highly responsible for several Pirate wins
?,CockrelL the strong lefthanded hitting centerfielder, was
a hitting star for the Bucs as well as a defensive ace.
Reserve catcher Burl Morris did a good job of replacing the injured
Oiarley Johnson. This Concord senior has given everything he has in
helping the Pirates out during his four-year stay at ECC. Besides Cray-
ton s bnUiant mtching, there were three other valuable hurlers. Coun-
Boykins, a big strong righthander, fanned 15 Omaha hitters in pitch

impressive 13-7 margin after being
battered 14-5 by the same college.
Had the Bucs won the opener of
this long night, then the Bucs
could have received championship
laurels earlier.
Coach Jim Mallory decided to
start his unbeaten righthander
Nathan Greene for the clincher. It
seemed as if Fate had planned for
the Pirate coach to save Greene for
the big one. The Monroe native
had not pitched a game for over a
siga.
and
month, and he had a powerful right
arm ready for the Californians.
Greene, a tough man in the
clutches, starred on the mound.
Converted thirdsacker Cotton Clay-
ton continued to murder enemy
pitchers by driving home 6 runs
with 4 hits. Spencer Gaylord came
through with three for five includ-
ing a home run. Lacy West, Wally
Cockrell, and Merrill Bynum, also
continued a murderous assault on
enemy pitchers by getting two base
hits apiece in the clincher.
When EC began to feel the
shakes in the ninth against the
Westerners, Coach Mallory called
on his sensational ace lefthander to
finish the job. With score 13-7,
and the bases loaded with two
enemy hitters retired, the south-
paw from Greensboro proceeded to
fan the last hitter in dramatic fas- rell, the brilliant Pirate centerfiel-
der, and Jim Martin, the cham-
pion's ace first sacker. Both are
seniors and are due to start out
their professional baseball career,
in the San Francisco Giant organi-
zation. The most Valuable Player
and star pitcher in the national
finals Larry Crayton was reported
ready to sign last week.
It was known that the great
southpaw will get a fairly large
bonus. Crayton was 10-1 on the

in their opener and defeated a dis-
appointed Non-Freedom Rider nine
by an overwhelming 23-2 margin.
Manager Phillips picked up the win
for the Scoffers.
However, in their second contest
the Scoffers were beaten by Brock
Ridge's tough Road Runners. The
score in this contest was 7-3. In
other first round results in the
loop, the Road Runners won their
opener against Richard Boyd's
Grand Slammers. But the latter
team redeemed themselves by whip-
ping the Non-Freedom Riders in
their second game of the season by
a 16-11 margin
The Hopefuls, coached by Larry
Thomas, spanked Lambda Chi in a
squeeker by a 10-9 score. The lat-

Nick Hilgert. The Road Runners
proved to be again victorious in
their third game of the year against
a fighting Has Been team. The
Runners won by an 11-10 score.
Ron Shoupe's Outlaws played
their first game of the season last
week and held off a 3 run last inn-
ing rally by the Grand Slammers
and won the contest 4-3. Phillips'
defending champion Scoffer outfit
turned back the Grand Slammers
7-2 in another contest.
These were the results prior to
deadline on the news for the East
Carolinian. The early results indi-
cate that the race may be between
the Road Runners and the Scoffers.
