GREENVILLE, N. C, FRIDAY, JANUARY 15, 1937
NUMBER 6
WRITES ON DARK
FIRED REGION
Article to be Published in Leading
Tobacco Trade Journal
Dr. L. R. Meadows, president of
East Carolina Teachers College ex-
pressed the opinion on December 14
that King Edward's love for the
common people of England was
more responsible for his abdication
than his love for Mrs. Simpson.
Doctor Meadows was speaking at a
dinner meeting of the Nash and
Edgeeomhe county chapters of the
Teachers College Alumnae Associa-
tion.
After explaining that the King,
by his friendship for the common-
ers, had inspired the wrath of the
conservatives, Doctor Meadows said
that the common people of this coun-
try are also faced with the opposi-
tion of the more conservative ele-
ment, who even go so far as to op-
pose the education of the masses.
"Pertinent Educational Problems
of the Day was Doctor Meadow's
subject. After his exposition of the
forces which oppose mass education,
he next considered the problems of
teacher preparation, teacher tenure
of office, and teacher salaries.
Of teacher preparation, he said
that colleges must have more time
to prepare teachers. He cited East
Carolina Teachers College, where
the two-year course has already been
discontinued, and expressed the be-
lief that a minimum requirement
oi five-years' training for all teach-
ers is immediately ahead.
Of teacher tenure of office,
remarked that security is an aim
of today, and that the next legisla-
ture should protect all teachers who
have demonstrated their ability over
a given number of years.
Without better salaries, Doctor
Meadows said, many good teachers
will leave the profession and, still

MISS HOOPER DESCRIBES
PERSONALITY OF THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER
The Persona
sippi River as
ity of the Missis-
described by Miss
Emma Hooper, of the F'nglish de-
partment, entertained the student
body of the College during the as-
sembly hour on December 15. Since
a greater part of her life has been
closely associated with the river, her
experiences and descriptions were
very vividly told.
Something of the size of the river
and its tributaries, the size of the
bridges that span it, its discovery by
De Soto, and its early history, helped
the students to visualize the river
as it is today.
"The Mississippi River is like a
hook Miss Hooper brought out "be-
cause one must read all parts of it.
If one cannot read it, he is entirely
lost
Miss Hooper explained howT the
river is a thing of usefulness, a be-
ing of service, and a person of com-
panionship.
"Personality she said "is that
quality that causes a person to be
remembered, to be sought again, to
be talked about and to be written
about Then truly the Mississippi
does have personality.

"The cost of failures in the fall
term if reduced to dollars and cents
would keep Cl-2 students in college
one term, with all necessary expense-
paid declared President L. R.
Meadows in his interpretation of
the statistical report made by the
registrar of East Carolina Teachers
College on grades for the fall term.
The total number of students fail-
ing one or more subjects was 225,
of which 130 failed only one course
and 29 failed three or more. The
total number of credit hours repre-
sented was 1,057, or six per cent of
all hours scheduled. Freshmen nat-
urally had the highest percentage
of failures with 20 of the class hav-
ing one or more. Of the regular
four-year classes, the seniors have
the lowest percentage with 15.3 hav-
ing one or more failures, with Jun-
iors just a little lower and Sopho-
mores making a big drop almost to
the level of Freshmen with 26.1 per
cent. The second-year, or senior-
normal class ranks only a little be-
low the Juniors. The Freshman
?dass had 3l per cent of all the
failures. Seniors 10.6 with the sen-
ior-normal or two-year group hav-
ing 8.8.
A selected group of eighty-three
students having the highest grades
averaged 1.7, the scale of grading
being from 1 to 5. In this group
nine are Seniors, and Juniors and
Feshmen tie with 22 each. The
number of hours carried by those in
the superior group is a fraction
heavier than the general average.
Thorough work was the first of
four objectives which Dr. Meadows,

JEAN LE MEE SAYS AMERICAN
COLLEGE LIFE "TOO LOVELY
FOR FRENCH STUDENTS"
Jean Pierre Le Alee, the 19-year-
old French student sent to the United
States by his government to make a
survey of social life in American
colleges, is convinced that college
life here would be "too lovely for
French students
Le Afee expressed amazement that
American students have such a good
time. If the college life in the
United States were suddenly trans-
planted to my country, he said, the
students there "wouldn't think of
working As it is at present, life
for them is all "work, work, work
Le Alee's inspection tour began on
September 21. He first visited five
colleges on the West coast. En route
to the East, he dropped in at the
University of Chicago. In the East
he visited Columbia University, New
lrork University, Temple Univer-
city, the University of Pennsylvania,
Bryn Mawr, Princeton, and Har-
vard.
In reference to the five football
games he saw, Le Mee said: "At first

Lowell Thomas Unable to Appear Here
In February; To Attend Coronation
he
The following Utter was received
by Miss Katherine Holtzclaw, chair-
man of tfie Entertainment Com-
mittee, explaining that Lowell
Thomas will be unable to lecture
here in February. In the letter.
Mr. S. B. Bridges, president of the
Alkahest Bureau in Atlanta, sug-
gests other celebrity speakers for
substitute.
Miss Katherine Holtzclaw,
Chairman Entertainment Com-
mittee,
East Carolina Teachers College,
Greenville, North Carolina.
Dear Miss Holtzclaw :
I have just now received a very
distressing letter from Lowell Thom-
as advising that his radio sponsors
had decided on the plan of sending
him to the Coronation in London
next spring instead of the vacation
trip to Florida which they have
been promising all along. For that
reason, he says: "I am afraid there
is not a chance in the world now
of my getting down your way before
next season This is going to
terribly upset my plans here in
Atlanta as well as other places I
had planned to send him on this trip
which he had promised me faith-
fully he would make this winter to
Florida and would take care of
these engagements in that connect-
ion though, as you know, I could
never pin him down to any definite
dates. Of course, I understood
from the very nature of his radio
work that it was impossible for him
to fix definite engagements very
far in advance but I was not pre-
pared for this result. I am rushing
this information along to you with
the hopes that we may be able to
arrange a satisfactory substitute
from those attractions we have
available.
First: I would like to have you
consider Dr. Roy Chapman An-
drews in whom I know you have been
interested, who is available on Feb-
ruary 8 on his way south, or we

DR. EDWARDS EXPLAINS
WHY STUDENTS FAIL
played the Glazounow Concerto in
A Minor for the first time in Amer-
ica. He was immediately hailed as
an artist of exceptional merit. In
the twenty-five years that have passed
since then, the name of Zimbalist
has become synonymous with great
violin music. He has played in prac-
tically every large city in the world.
Zimbalist has also established
himself as a composer and more re-
cently as a conductor. lie is the
composer of a symphonic poem
"Daphines and Chloe" which was
recently performed for the first time
by the Philadelphia Orchestra with
Leopold Stokowski conducting. He
is also the composer of an operetta
"Honeydew a Sonata for violin
and piano in G Minor. Three Slavic
Dancers and numerous short violin
compositions. Two years ago he
made his debut as a conductor, di-
recting a performance of Tschaikow-
sky's "Eugew Onegin" which was
presented by the Art of Musical Rus-
sia. More recently, he conducted
the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in
a performance of his most recent
works "An American Rhapsody
Although Russian by birth Zim-
balist is in many repects an Amer-
ican artist. He is an American citi-
zen, makes his winter home in New
York City and his summer home in
Connecticut, and has two children
born in this country.
He was born in Rostov-on-the-
Den, on April 8, 1SS9. His first
teacher was his father, who was an
orchestra leader. The boy showed
such extraordinary gifts that when
he was only nine years old he became
first violinist in a grand opera or-
chestra. And it was not because his
father happened to be the distin-
guished director of the opera house,
for the elder Zimbalist was the most
exacting master Efrem ever had. It
was only at the insistence of the
older musicians that the father final-
ly consented to entrust his young son
with such important a post.
In 1903 he entered The Imperial
Conservatory in Petrograd, studying
under Brofessor Leopoed Duer.
Graduating, he was awarded the
coveted gold medal and the Ruben-
stein Scholarship of 12,000 rubels.
He made his Berlin debut at the age
of eighteen, appearing later in Lon-
don and on the continent with great
success. lie stands today at the
pinnacle of the musical ladder in
popularity and prestige.

Gum-chewers commonly fall
into two classifications. First,
those who synchronize their
mouths with their pencils. Sec-
ondly, those who chew accord-
ing to the speed of the lecturer.
However, at East Carolina
Teachers College, there seems to
be another distinct type which
chews gum only in formal dress.
Let us recall this situation: A
formal dance here is progress-
ing in its usual stilted manner.
Serious-faced gentlemen are
dancing with mature-for-the-oc-
casion ladies. Suddenly a vio-
lent spop! spop! spop! inter-
rupts the music. Oblivious of
the glares thrown in her direc-
tion, a girl is chewing gum, and
advertising it by sounds which
are unpleasant, to say the least.
Do you get the contrast?
Gum-chewers have always pes-
tered Society, and no doubt al-
ways will. But can't the habi-
tual chewers at this college show
an ounce of consideration for
others and confine their gum-
chewing activity to moments of
solitude?
Every East Carolina Teachers
College student, whether con-
scious of the fact or not, has an
effect on the reputation of the
college?either positive or nega-
tive. There's no doubt as to the
category into which the gum-
chewers fall.

But her as at other colleges, the wheels grind slowly.
The recommendations printed be-

committee and approved by the fac-
ulty on January 8, 1937. In regard
to Number 3. requests for entertain-
ment dates for the present quarter

February 1.
1. That the motion picture ma-
chine shall not be used for "Small

stead, several good moving pictures
other than the Saturday evening
shows be shown each quarter.
2. That every entertainment put
on by a student organization be su-
pervised by a member of staff or
faculty member acting as adviser.
3. That all requests for student
entertainment dates be filed with the
chairman of the Entertainment
Committee as follows: those for en-
tertainments to be given in either
the winter of the spring quarter
must be filed before the beginning
of the quarter when the event will
take place; and those for entertain-
ments to be given in the fall quar-
ter must be filed within the first two

4. That a student secure the ap-
proval of her faculty adviser before
taking part in any entertainment
program.
Katharine Holtclaw,
Chair. Entertainment Committee.
Sometimes I think that New
Year resolutions are silly. By
the time you finish reforming your-
self down to the most picayune and
insignificant details (on paper)
you're feeling so virtuous at hav-
ing recognized all your faults, and
happy in the sense of a good deed
well done, that actually doing some-
thing about your failings seems anti-
climatic.
This is all very well for the fancy,
do it up with a frill resolutions: for
the faults you don't really mind hav-
ing. It's' fatal where your looks
are concerned. Beauty isn't ach-
ieved in the hour before a date.
Certainly it isn't achieved by mere
wishful thinking.
For instance, you know that you
are interested in doing something
about your looks. Quite frquently
it occurs to you that life would be
so much simpler and pleasanter if
only you were a tall, willowy blond
with large, expressive eyes, a marvel-
ous complexion that was always in
the pink of condition, and a gor-
geous figure. You think about the
wonders accomplished by famous
Parisian dressmakers, and person-
ality coiffures and how Norma
Shearer turned from an ugly duck-
ling into a swan. And then you
fall asleep or find you've arrived at
your destination; and that's that.
"Well, this year I think you ought
to change all that. Make up your
mind to do one thing at a time?

Carleton College students who
dine at Burton Hall turned the
tables on Miss Boyce, the dietitian.
When Miss Boyce lost her voice
temporarily, disgruntled gourmets
seized the opportunity to berate her
for serving certain
dishes which they dis-
like.
Since she is help-
less to answer them,
the voiceless Boyce is
enduring a lot of pun-
ishment. But she has
the upper hand even
now, for she still has
a voice in the foo
choice.

Tutoring bureaus, an old and flourishing institution on most sizable
V. S. campuses, are paid by undergraduates to provide them with enough
last-minute information tosqueeze them through an examination. They
are characteristic of such universities as Harvard, Yale and Princeton,
where students have enough distractions and enough money to make them
a paying convenience. About half of all Harvard students at some point
in their careers patronize one of the five competing tutoring schools;
there is one which advertises a "Pay-As-You-Pass" system that guaran-

MISS HOOPER DESCRIBES
PERSONALITY OF THE

"Ten days or fifteen dollars
"I'll take the fifteen bucks, your

From the looks of some of the
men students, we are sure they still
remember the holidays.
"Fatty" Clark, the 355 pound
guard who played with the Uni-
versity of Arkansas in 1930 and '31,
was the largest college football
player in the world.

"As we read of the progress that
is being made, we see how the edu-
cation of man is like the conquest
of the river?straight and narrow
but very deep, free for service, hap-
py in giving, controlled in his pas-
sions. Only thus, can the fine per-
sonality of man or river fulfill its
place in the Creator's scheme of
things she said.
In concluding she said that in a
few days she hoped to be riding
along the river's driveway that will
be lighted by many colored lights

As much space as there is on this
campus it seems there would be some
place for all of us to register instead
of over one thousand students try-
ing to squeeze through one doorway
to transact business that will keep
us in college for three months.
Well, here's hoping that something
will be done by spring quarter so
that we will be able to register much
easier, and quicker.?A Student.
To the Editor:
Why not give us a short writeup
on all of the basketball boys? And
please tell the boys numbers and
their names. We surely would ap-
preciate it. We would like to know
who our boys are when we go to
the ball games. Give us a tip.
Sincerely,
A Student.
And speaking of resolutions, here
are a few suggestions.
1. Don't study TOO much.
(There's plenty of time for that
next summer when you can't do
anything else.)
2. Attend all athletic contests.
(You may not understand the game
but that's all right. Mystery, they
say, lends enchantment, or some-
thing. Anyway, if you are in a
borrowing mood?.)
3. Don't try swimming with the
goldfish. (They resent "pajama
clad" company, and are contem-
plating a petition to the Board of
Trustees.)
Yes, they say an egotist is a self-
made man worshipping his maker.
(Wonder if there are any self-made
women.)

"Mr. Kfren Zimbalist is least of

he is an artist of singular and self-
effacing devotion to lofty ideals. He
seems to love music better than he
loves himself. When he believes in
a composition he plays it again and
again in the fond hope that he may
eventually overcome the inertia of
the true art. He might possibly
have gained for himself a larger
amount of space in the daily prints
had he utilized modern power of
ballyhoo. But those who have
watched his career are well aware
that he would shrink with aversion
from such a method of eelebration.

profusely illustrated in black and
white and said to be the finest one
in existence, is the most pretentious
section of the Zimbalist collection.
The favorite of the artist is a fac-
simile of the manuscript of Alice
in Wonderland with sketches by
the author.
In addition to his rare editions,
Zimbalist has a fine collection of
semi-precious stone, quaint Oriental
vials, carved ivories and fine tapes-
tries, also brought from the far cor-
ners of the world.
Zimbalist has more violins than
any
day. His collections contain the fa-
mous "Lamorlux" Stradivarius and
an almost equally valuable, Guada-
gini. The Guadagini. in addition to
being one of the rarest of the eight-
eenth century Cremonas has a mod-
ern history that is most unique. It
has probably done more traveling,
unaccompanied by guide or chaper-
one, than any violin iu existence.
It started when the Guadagnini
was stolen from Zimbalist's dressing
room in a Los Angeles Concert hall.
As the violinist was scheduled for
an Oriental Tour starting immedi-
ately, he was forced to sail without
it. But a short time after the violin
was offered for sale to the Chicago
representative of Rudolph Wurlit-
zer who had himself sold it to Zim-
balist. He recognized it at once,
called the police and then rushed to
the nearest telegraph office to cable
the violinist. Zimbalist wired back
his delight and asked to have the
precious instrument shipped to him
in Australia. It missed him in Sid-
ney, Tokio, Singapore, Shanghai,
Marrila, until he finally cabled
to have it sent "home" by the most
direct route, without any further
junketing.
Zimbalist's Uncanny Knowledge of
Musical Instruments
Zimbalist possesses, among better
known gifts, an uncanny ability to
play almost any instrument that
comes into his hands. Nobody has
ever shown him a musical instru-
ment that after a moment of concen-
trated examination, he has not been
able to play. And this strange in-
stinct came valiantly to his rescue
once early in his career.
When, as a youth of eighteen he
came up before the faculty of the
Petrograd Conservatory for his final
examination, he learned just before
entering the sanctum of the jury
that during all the years he was
studying the violin there under Pro-
fessor Auer, he was supposed to have
had a knowledge of the piano too.
Part of the examination, he discov-
ered to his dismay, was the task of
playing a Beethoven piano sonata
at sight?and he had never touched
a piano further than to get his A
for violin-tuning.
"I was scared to death is Zim-
balist's reminiscent comment. He
sat down, however, got his breath,
played. When he finished, he was
instructed to play the whole thing
over again?this time from memory.
He did so. After a moment of si-
lence, the room broke unanimously
into applause?an unheard-of dem-
onstration.
This amazing performance seems I

SCIENCE CLUB PRESENTS
INTERESTING PAGEANT
At the Christmas meeting of the
Science Club, a pageant was pre-
sented, written by Frances Barnes,
a member of the club. "The His-
tory of Chemistry" was the title of
the pageant. Those taking active
parts in the pageant were Joe Hatem,
Roy Barrow, Henry Hatsell, and
George Willard. The pageant was
directed by Frannie Brewer. The
pageant proved to be a tremendous
success.
After the pageant, the members
gathered around the Christmas tree.
Ray Pruette, acting as Santa Claus,
gave out bags of refreshments.
This quarter's work will be de-
voted to physics. The first meeting
of the quarter will be held the third
Tuesday of this month.
ave Miss Skinner instead of
Mr. Thomas at the same fee, if you
could take her, under the circum-
stances, and I am sure your students
would greatly appreciate your giv-
ing them the opportunity of hearing
her in another program.
Then, we have some open dates
in the weeks of January 18 and 25
in the schedule of Richard Halli-
burton, the noted author, who is in
great demand this season and is
really one on the most successful
platform speakers we have ever
Iwoked, regardless of price. I do
not believe there is any man on our
list whom your students would enjoy
more. I am mailing you under
separate cover copies of some of the
pages that have been run in a num-
ber of the leading dailies throughout
the country this past summer and
fall and If you will look over these,
I think you will be interested in
having him appear there. I do not
believe Mr. Halliburton has spoken
in Greenville and if he did it was
a long time ago when, I am sure,
none of your present students were
there.
If you would prefer some com-
mentator on national questions and
affairs like Will Irwin, Kaltenborn,
or Frederick William Wiles, we
might be able to secure one of these
for you.
Yours very sincerely,
S. R. Bridges
