Jenkins Silent On Possible
Conference Withdrawal
SC Admitance Depends
On January Decision
EC will make no decisions on
whether it will or will not with-
draw from Carolines Conference
competition until January 22.
East Carolina could not possibly
enter the Southern Conference in
the near future and compete ath-
letically on the basis of limited
scholarships. The Bucs presently
offer 38 football scholarships and
10 for basketball.
The conference has had its win-
ter meeting in High Point. Dr.
Earl Ruth of Catawba adopted a
motion to poll the members and
ee if they planned to abide by
conference rule limiting athletic
scholarships.
Reach Decision In January
The new conference rules of
limited scholarships will not affect
EC until the January 22 meeting.
Then Dr. Jenkins will make his
ieeision. Dr. Jenkins states, "the
ECC Athletic Committee is study-
ing this problem of scholarships
and will make a decision after the
meeting of the presidents of the
member schools to be held in Salis-
buiy on January 22
Conference Wants EC
It is evident that the Southern
Conference "wants" EC as a mem-
ber as indicated by conference sur-
vey officials, who were in Green-
ville last week. EC's keen ambit-
ious athletic program of a new
stadium, and possible field house,
as well as a possible enrollment
of 6000 students in the near fu-
ture brightens the hope of possible
EC membership to the SC. With-
drawal from the Carolinas Confer-
ence due to the limited scholarships
would be a step of necessity in ord-
er for East Carolina to compete in
the SC. A change in the limited
scholarship rule on January 22 may
keep EC in the Carolinas Con-
ference.
The Weaker Sex shows the boys that they too are civic minded. Col-
lege students, 264 strong, turned out for Wednesday's Bloodmobile
visit to the campus.

EC Red Cross Blood Donations
Break All Pitt County Records
EC's terrific response to the Red Cross Blood Program
last week, an action commendable, broke all records for
Pitt County.
As Blood Program Chairman, Kenneth Whichard, stated
and we agree, " . . certainly It presents a new challenge
to us in the community from our young people at East Caro-
lina College
Unofficial reports noted that out of the record break-
ing 264 pints of blood collected, over 250 pints can be ac-
credited to the college.
The organized efforts of Deans Ruth White, James
Mallory, James Tucker and Col. N. E. Merritt are largely
responsible for the tremendous turn-out of student blood
donors. Although the fairer sex, seen more in actual donating
on this visit of the bloodmobile than before, didn't engage
outstandingly in giving blood, they were on hand to serve
refreshments to blood donors. Through Panhellenic, sqrori-
ty women worked in shifts of one hour to add to the sue-
cessful program.
Several organizations conjtributed largely to the more
than doubled average quota of 125 pints. The Air Force
ROTC led the donors with 52 pints, followed by EC Indepen-
dents with 46; Kappa Alpha, 42; Lambda Chi Alpha, 28;
Phi Kappa Tau, 23; Theta Chi, 18; and Aycock Dorm, 15.
With the approaching holiday season, Whichard fur-
ther pointed out, "East Carolina's generous gift will help
to meet the abnormal needs at this time of the year
'Banner Day' On EC Campus
Jenkins Commends Achievements
Dear Editor:
Wednesday, December 6, was indeed a banner day
here on the campus. I am writing this letter to bring to the
attention of all the students two accomplishments that
brought a great deal of credit to all of us.
First, through the vigorous work of the manv fra-
ternity men, assisted by the student body in general, the
campus broke an all-time Pitt County record in the amount
of blood donated during a visit of the Bloodmobile. I can
assure you the people of Pitt County are very grateful for
this accomplishment.
Secondly, it is with a great deal of pleasure and pride
that I am able to state that we have surpassed our assigned
quota of $25,000 toward the stadium fund.
You have brought a. great deal of honor and respect
to the campus through these achievements. They also do
much to quiet some of the critics of college students who
seem to contend that our young people are without a sense
of responsibility.
I am very proud of your achievements and want to
thank you for two jobs well done.
Sincerely yours,
Leo W. Jenkins,
President

'Rebel' Reflects Intellectualism
By GEORGE GARDNER
The presence of a campus liter The brand of liberalism
? ?oo;? f-fT-o fv,? am I Tr :?.i? seems to throw himself
ary magazine offers the oppor- Mr. Grimes
tunity of a publication that re- ir.to is that of Stu Udal. (whose
fleets the student intellectual
zenith of a college. Indeed, the
editorship of such a production im-
plies an obligation to personify
this.
Unfortunately, the fall edition
of the East Carolina College lit-
erary magazine, the Rebel, has not,
I hope, accurately reflected either
of these challenging- potentials.
The Rebel is subordinated to and
marred by a completely unsubstan-
tiated and poorly executed social
bias of the editor, Junius D. Grimes,
III.
From the opening statement of
the editorial we are told that "prob-
ably the most difficult assignment
faced by the college magazrihe is
the establishment of a point of
iew which has any degree of sus-
tained consistency For the cur-
rent editor, sustained consistency
is indeed a difficulty. For the edi-
tor says in the same paragraph
that he has subjected1 the magazine
to his own "caprice "Caprice"

"sudden whims and impulses
He further contradicts himself,
again in the same paragraph, by
concluding that his personal ca-
price is the comibined policy of the
entire Rebel staff.
The design of the editorial is
a condemnation of "conservation
As ,so often happens to the juve-
nile critic who merely flings a fit
and expels emotionally, Mr.
Grimes does not define his terms!
For a better understanding- of
the term "conservatism one
might suggest to the Rebel editor
?a familiarity with John Stuart
Mills On Liberty, Herbert Spen-
cer's The Man Versus the State,
and the writings of Edmund Bwrke.

view of reality was
from the summit of Mt. Fuji), and
Fra'nk Sinatra's Hollywood Rat
Pack, who so ridiculously foil the
equally absurd charades of Rob-
ert Welch and The Minute Men.
If Editor Grimes feels he must
bear the socio-political cross of
liberalism, one might advise an
acquaintance with the editorial
pages of the Washington Post and
the excellent left wing periodical:
The Reporter, The Nation, and The
New Republic.
His current state of liberal edi-
fication reeks of an indoctrination
by way of Walter Ruether's, COPE,
News and Observer editorials, and
the sensationalisms of Drew Pear-
son.
Willy Alligood (The South)
Let us now scrutinize Mr.
Grimes' gem of ambiguous, pre-
tentious, smug, and confused
psuedo-intellectualism, entitled
"Faded Crey, Faded Overhauls
(sic)?Fading Promise?"
Editor Grimes proposes not to
defame the south and its people,
yet he personifies the typical
eastern North Carolina farmer
and then the common southerner
as "poor and ignorant"?(Willy
Alligood. Mr. Grimes apparently
has tried to depict Willy Alligood
much in the same fashion as Red
Skelton portrays Clem Kadiddle-
hopper. However, even Clem, or the
most backward southern farmer
would be elated if phosphate or
gold or -uranium were found under
his land. Perhaps ignorance fears
:he presence of outsiders, but
there is nothing like the outsider's
money to alleviate this distrust.
Editor Grimes condems Willy's
religion, hut if Willy is hanpy with
it and does not try to impose his
?beliefs on Mr. Grimes, who is the

donates a tree which is placed in
the cafeteria for decoration.
The traditional celebration be-
gan at 5:30 with a social hour in

that would like to educate him. He
should also be encouraged to visit
such progressive eastern North
Carolina communities as Wilson,
Rocky Mount, Roanoke Rapids,
Kinston, Goldsboro, and Farmville.
If Mr. Grimes wants to make a
constructive protest, he could ask
why North Carolinians have the
third highest state-taxes per pers-
on in the nation, and wthy with
these revenues plus a 3 food tax
we wallow among the bottom 45
of the 50 states in all state sup-
ported undertakings ?
One will agree that reform is
needed?starting at the top. The
way Governor Sanford took the
state for granted and merely talked
down to the voters on the recent
bond issue and the manner in
which Mr Grimes takes our ig-
norance for granted and talks)
down to his readers, are indicative
of such need.
Mr. Willy Alligood will come
along, only if the leadership (from
the top) is enlightened, patient and
understanding. "Liberal and honest
progress" will be made only when
the terms are defined and a clear
choice for the future is intelligently
presented. Sudh primary problems
as satisfactory race relations and
the need for a virile two-party sys-
tem in the South must first be
met. Then the southern people,
with a united and well represented
front will proceed to their un-
limited destiny.
By extending the courtesy to
overlook the editor's comments
about the magazine's contributors
(page 31); we may conclude that
Mr. Grimes has, at least, made
a serious attemipt to be serious,
and that should be complimented,
for it is rare among the students
at ECC (football stadiums ex-
cluded, of course). It is with regret
that the result is found, therein,
unfortunate.
The conclusion of the Rebel Re-
view will appear in itflie next edi-
tion of the East Carolinian.

FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA
America is a great country. America's cities are full of houses.
America's forests are full of trees. America's rivers are full of
water. But it is not houses and trees and water that make
America great; it is curiosity?the constant quest to find
answers-the endless, restless "Why?" "Why?" "Why?
Therefore, when I was told that Marlboro was a top seller
at colleges from USC to Yale, I was not content merely to
accept this gratifying fact, I had to find out why.
I hied myself to campuses in every sector of this mighty land.
First, I went to the Ivy League?dressed, of course, in an
appropriate costume: a skull-and-bones in one hand, a triangle
in the other, a mask-and-wig on my head, a hasty pudding in
my chops. "Sir I cried, seizing an Ivy Leaguer by the lapels,
which is no mean task considering the narrowness of Ivy League
lapels, but, I, fortunately, happen to have little tiny hands; in
fact, I spent the last war working in a small arms plant where, I
am proud to say, I was awarded a Navy "E" for excellence and
won many friends?"Sir I cried, seizing an Ivy Leaguer by the
lapels, "how come Marlboro is your favorite filter cigarette?"
&&&
'I'm glad you asked that question, Shorty he replied.
"Marlboro is my favorite filter cigarette because it is the filter
cigarette with the unfiltered taste
"Oh, thank you, sir I cried and ran posthaste to several
campuses in the Big Ten, wearing, of course, the appropriate
costume: a plaid Mackinaw, birling boots, a Kodiak bear and
frost-bitten ears.
Spying an apple-cheeked young coed, I tugged my forelock
and said, "Excuse me, miss, but how come Marlboro is your
favorite filter cigarette?"
"I'm glad you asked that question, Shorty she replied,
"Marlboro is my favorite filter cigarette because the flavor is
flavorful, the flip-top box flips and the soft-pack is soft
"Oh, thank you, apple-cheeked young coed I cried and
bobbed a curtsey and sped as fast as my little fat legs would
carry me to several campuses in the Southwest, wearing, of
course, the appropriate costume i chaps, canteen, and several oil
leases. Spying a group of undergraduates singing "Strawberry
Roan I removed my hat and said, "Excuse me, friends, but
why is Marlboro your favorite filter cigarette?"
"We are glad you asked that question, Shorty they replied,
"Marlboro is our favorite filter cigarette because we, native sons
and daughters of the wide open spaces, want a cigarette that is
frank and forthright and honest. We want, in short, Marlboro
"Oh, thank you, all I cried and, donning a muu muu, I set
sail for Hawaii, because in Hawaii, as in every state where Old
Glory flies, Marlboro is the leading seller in flip-top box. On
campus, off campus, in ail fifty states, wherever people smoke for
pleasure in this great land of ours, you will find Marlboro.

EC Upsets Spiders
ECC's fired-up Pirates stunned
Richmond University 81-70 Satur-
day night in a cage tilt at the
Virginia capital. The Pirates, who
redeemed themselves against Len-
oir Rhyne Friday night with an
upset victory, hit on the amazing
total of 60 per cent of their shots
in the hard earned victory.
Over 2000 fans witnessed a spec-
tacular showing by the Buc's Char-
lie Lewis from Kinston. The 6-1
Co-Captain hit .on 11 out of 15
from the floor and 4 for 4 from
the free-throw line for 26 points.
The Spiders stayed with the
Carolina team, leading 49-46 in
the early stages of the last half.
However, the Richmond quint hit
a cold spell and Coach Earl Smith's
hot five took advantage of the
Spider elapse and rolled-up a
sizeable lead that the home team
could not overtake.
Veteran Benny Bowes from Burl-
ington aided Lewis in the EC
scoring, and netted 23 markers. It
was a great team victory for the
the Bucs and one of the moat
spectacular basketball wins in EC's
history. It appeared as though

tests, but two tremendous team ef-
