College Without a Library Is Bad,
It Surely Leaves The Student Sad
Your correspondent had heard
members of the faculty give lecture
after lecture on the wonderful op-
portunities and values offered by the
library of this institution. So being
very eager to shed some enlightening
light on the subject to our multi-
tudes of breathless readers, we de-
cided to interview a student and see
just what he thought about the
library and its use. These were the
questions asked:
What is the best way to get an
education ?
A. Go to the library and copy ma-
terial from a reference book.
How would you go about gathering
the information required of a good
student ?
A. Go to the library and copy ma-
terial from a reference book.
What is the best source of informa-
tion for a college student?
A. The notebooks of students who
have copied material from a ref-
erence book in the library.
What is the best way to prepare
a required notebook in college?
A. Go to the library and copy
material from a reference book.
How do you prepare an assignment
of material not found in your text-
book?

the shipping of the finished prod-
uct.
At the plant of the Durham Eve-
ning Sun they watched the paper
go through all its stages.
The party also visited other
places of interest in Durham. At
Duke University the students were
especially impressed with the
chapel.
In passing through Raleigh, the
party stopped and visited State
College, St. Mary's School, and
Wakestone, the home of Josephus
Daniels. On the way home students
did not forget that the purpose of
the trip was studying geography,
and attention was called to the top-
ography, erosion, and forest conser-
vation along the way.
The place that impressed more
of the party, according to one of
the students, was the cigarette fac-
tory in Durham. Both the workers
and the factory were so clean, that
the student says she understands
better why so many people smoke
cigarettes.

someone who has a claim on great-
ness. So, with that thought in mind,
I'd like to introduce you to Miss
Jane Elizabeth Moore of Bethel,
Xorth Carolina. Miss Moore is a
student on our campus herca mem-
ber of the senior class, and she
graduates this summer. And,
though you may not know this
young lady's claim to greatness, for
she is the very essence of modesty,
she, nevertheless, has a real claim
to a distinct honor. It seems that
not so terribly many years ago when
our heroine had reached the tender
age of four, she played an impor-
tant part in one of the most famous
motion pictures produced at that
time. Jane Moore was in the sup-
porting cast of Mr. Goldman and
picture. The little golden-haired
girl was quite mystified and elated
to find herself the center of a great
deal of attention. Jane had the priv-
ilege of riding to and from the stu-
dio in a large, shiny limousine and
was waited on hand and foot by the
attendants. The make-up staff of
the studio curled, painted, and
powdered the four-year-old lassie to
prepare her for the blinding glare
of the lights necessary for picture
making. Jane reports that the char-
acters in the movie did and said

made that talent into a living, pulsating, and a vibrant thing. His ex-

being in an institution of higher learning one has a better op-
porturnty of making a success of life. The individual, if he avails him-
self of the opportunities at hand, can live a fuller, richer life Almost
anyone can exist, but the person who really lives is the one who "expects
to gain something from playing the game of life, and in view of that
expectation, puts something into the game.
Opportunities surround us every day, but, all too often, we let them
casually slip away seemingly not realizing that we will, in all prob-
ability, not have that opportunity again.
One of the most obviously neglected opportunities of the college
students here seems to be that of failing to attend the entertainments
provided for by the college. Granting that the entertainments are
fairly well attended there are still many who are losing fine chances
ot enriching their lives by the knowledge and experiences of others Let
us become just a little more keen to the values of such programs.
And, then, just being in school is an opportunity many people envy
students. It seems a little unfair when the more fortunate ones fail to
make a "go of school work.
To play a winning game in life requires long, untiring efforts on the
part of the contestant. One must not expect success at one attempt.

Clifton Britton say
difficult for him to realize the
actuality of his being the director
of the senior play at E.C.T.C.
"Castles in the air" he would testify
do sometimes become solid buildings
of the earth. Combined with his
ambition to go to college was the
dream of directing the plays of hi
fellow students. Besides having
eighty-six plays to his credit, he has
the distinction of perhaps being the
only underclassman to direct a
senior play in college.
His first real enthusiasm was
aroused at the age of eight when
he saw a review staged by Delie
Hampton. Young Clifton immedi-
ately went home, gathered the
neighborhood children together, and
proceded to produce the play in his
father's barn.
To make money for his seventh
grade when he was only thirteen,
he put on a minstrel show. Each year
he staged plays with his fellow stu-

work.
Clifton confesses a secret desire
to act as well as direct. He also
stated that he had "tried out" for a
good many roles, but admits he would
seldom be able to get more than a
minor part, and that particular
character usually died in the first
act. Laughingly he said that was
perhaps the reason for his fondness
of death scenes.

but he is president of his class of

has come along in years.
The dance lias become so strong
that the University of Southern Cali-

turned its semi-annual rush party
into a College Swing party and it
was a sensation on the campus.
The dance is a collection of kidd-

into a set routine. The dance will

Notice
The Woman's Athletic Asso-
ciation has purchased some
roller skates which are rented
to any member of the student
body. They are free to mem-
bers of the WAA. In the short
time they have been rented it
has become necessary to replace
some due to the severe wear by
the boys using them. For that
reason it will be necessary to
charge the boys 10c per hour.
The charge of 5c per hour for
girls will continue. There is a
charge of 10c for failure to re-
turn keys. The skates may be
secured any afternoon after
3:30 and on Saturday after

Fresh from a hard fought victory
over Atlantic Christian College,
the Fast Carolina Pirates triumphed
over the quintet representing the
Norfolk Division of William and
Mary the following night by a score
of 42 to 36. The game was one of
the closest and most exciting played
here this season. This contest was
featured by fast, snappy play with
a minimum of roughness and foul-
ing. Both teams exhibited a nice
brand of pass work and an almost
uncanny ability to shoot the basket
from difficult angles and positions.
The Buccaneer sharpshooters showed
a slightly better eye for the basket
than their opponents, and the local
supporters were brought to their feet
many times as the Teachers made
impossible looking shots.
Shelton, as usual, was the big gun
of the Sea Robbers attack and rolled
up the impressive total of 20 points
for his evening's work. The entire
quintet, however, showed up well in
working the ball into scoring ter-
ritory and also put up a stubborn
defense against the Virginians' at-
tempts to cage the ball.

The game was a nip-and-tuekish

and then the other holding the upper
hand by a narrow margin. The
game was so close that the lead
changed hands eight times in the
last five minutes of play, and it was
anybody's ball game up until the
final gun. Shelton scored eight of
his 24 point total in the last three
minutes of play to put the game
in the ic box for the Pirates. Smith

ECTC's swashbuckling Bucca
neers triumphed over the quintet
representing Atlantic Christian Col-
lege by a score of 37 to 25 in a
rough and tumble game played on
the local court. The game offered
everything in the way of thrills,
spills, and excitement and kept the
enthusiastic rooters for both teams
in a constant uproar. The game
was by far the most colorful played
here this season. Atlantic Christian
College was well represented with its
band and approximately 200 in the
cheering section.
The game started off at a very
fast pace with both clubs cracking
the basket for frequent scores. The
Pirates seemed to have a slight edge
in shooting ability as the game pro-
gressed and the half ended with the
score 17 to 10 in favor of the locals.
The Christians started off very fast
as the second half opened and cut
several points from the Pirates'
margin. The Buccaneers, however,
put on steam in the closing minutes
of play to increase their lead to
twelve points and end the game on
top by a score of 37 to 25.
The most exciting feature of the
game to the fans was its rough and
tumble play. Shelton also put on
his usual exhibition of plain and
fancy shooting to thrill the fans
time and time again. "Big Jim
Johnson was outstanding both on de-
fense and offense. Shelton and
Johnson both scored ten points to
lead for honors. Rogers, captain
of the ACC team, ran the leaders a
close second in scoring by ringing
up nine points.

them back after the performance.
Two other staff members, shy and
timid, had their first experience in
interviewing a celebrity. With shak-
ing knees, but a stout heart they
faced the issue bravely, and some-
what proudly. Misses Dorothy Hol-
lar and Margaret Guy Overman
were introduced by Miss Grigsby,
the official representative of the
College News Bureau.
Mrs. Johnson received the inter-
viewers in her private sitting room
at the Proctor Hotel. Looking very
young and lovely in her blue house-
coat, she talked fluently and inter-
estingly of her life in Africa and
her plans for the future.
Soon the interviewers felt as if
they were talking with an old
friend. They forgot their uneasi-
ness, being careful to catch every
word the gracious lady said, as she
talked on. answering all their ques-
tions before they had even had time
to put them to her.
When the time came to leave, the
interviewers left reluctantly, al-
though they really had secured
quite a bit of information

Mr. Gulledge then asked Miss
Sallie Joyner Davis to tell of the
recent gift of Mr. and Mrs. Deal to
the library.
Miss Davis described this collec-
tion as including papers ranging
from Colonial Times up to Civil War
and Reconstruction days. Many of
these papers are original land grants
and a number of them bear the signa-
ture of the Governor at the time it
was issued. It also contains a news-
paper printed a few days after the
death of Washington, a bill for the
selling of a slave, a Confederate bond,
a ballot of South Carolina in 1876.
Course In Girl Scouting
Coach Alexander led his charges
in conflict against the Rocky Mount
YMCA last week and lost a close,
hard fought game by a score of
33 to 29. The game was played in
Rocky Mount and the Pirates had
some little difficulty in adapting
their style of play to the exceeding-
ly small court.
The Buccaneers had a nine point
lead with only six minutes left in
the ball game. Then for some in-
explicable reason the Greenville
teachers had ten fouls called on them
in a four minute period. This was
rather remarkable for there had only
been four fouls up to this time.
Xevertheless, the "Y" team suc-
ceeded in tying up the score through
the free throws and then forged
into the lead in the closing seconds
of the game to win by a four point
margin.
The Pirate cagers led their op-
ponents by a 20 to 13 score at half
time.

edge since you came to college?
A. Yes, a great deal. It is in my
note book copied from a reference
book in the library.
What do you expect to do with
your notebook!
A. Use it as a guage, when I teach,
and require my students to go to the
library and copy from a reference
book as much material as I did.
Is that education?
A. Isn't all knowledge recorded in
reference books in the library?
Do you get a thrill out of pursuing
a college education?
A. Kind Fortune has conferred a
great boon on those who can read
and write, and then has given them
the opportunity to use those skills in
copying materials from a reference
book in the library.
What is the function of a teacher ?
A. To direct his students to go to
the library and copy material from
a reference book.
From the above information your
correspondent found that the library
must be quite a force in the educa-
tion of many students.
The boxing team representing the
Duke Freshmen proved too strong
for the Fast Carolina fighters in a
meet held in Durham, February 5
and succeeded in winning the match
by a 6 to 2 score. The Pirates won
their two matches in the 145 and
155 pound classes. David Breece
lighting in the 145 pound class,
proved to be too fast and clever for
Duke's Lattimer and rolled up a
wide margin to win his bout by a
decision. Lattimer seemed to be
quite an experienced fighter for a
freshman team, but he could not
match Breeees speed and shifty
style. The Pirate pugilist staggered
his opponent in the second round
with a hard right to the jaw and
seined well on the way to a knoek-
1 glove caused
forfeits in the heavier weights. The
ACC club could not match Williams.
155 pounder, or Qurnell, the Pirate
representative in the 165 pound
class.
A summarv of the events follow:
120 lbs.?Tyson, ECTC, de-
cisioned Boles, ACC.
119 lbs.?Roebuck, ACC, de-
eisioned J. Daniels, ECTC.
135 lbs.?Lewis, ACC, decisioned
Perkins, ECTC.
145 lbs.?Johnson, ACC, defeated
Djiovanidis, ECTC, on a technical
knockout in the third round.
155 lbs.?Holiday, ACC.
The Pirate Pugilists proved to
be quite willing to scrap but showed
plainly that they lacked training
and experience. The ECTC boxers
had only trained three weeks,
a very short period in which to
whip a group of inexperienced box-
ers into shape. Lack of condition-
ing was the deciding factor that
placed at least one and possibly two
fights in the lost column which other-
wise would have been won. The
bouts in which Perkins and Frazelle
participated were decided almost
wholly on the question of condition-
ing-
Tyson fought the first match of
the evening and defeated his op-
ponent by a comfortable margin.
This was the local boy's first ring
appearance and he showed real
promise of his fistic ability. Jack
Daniels, in the 115 pound class,
showed plenty of willingness to mix
it up with Roebuck of ACC, but the
lack of experience was a deciding
factor in this bout. "Pete" Perkins
went after his man in good fashion
but wilted in the second round
enough to allow his opponent to
roll up enough points to win the
fight. George Djiovanidis mixed up
with Johnson of ACC in a good old-
fashioned barroom brawl to furnish
plenty of excitement for the fans.
However, several hard blows about, , .

the third round, thus awarding tnel
fight to Johnson on a technical
knockout. Holliday, ACC 155
pounder, slugged out a decision over
The first boxing team in the his-
tory of East Carolina Teachers Col-
lege met defeat in its initial match
with Atlantic Christian College by
the score of 4 to ?. The meet was
Iheld on the Christians' home ground
I on February 1. Vernon Tyson,
Pirate scrapper fighting in the 120
pound class, cast one marker on the
win side of the Teachers' ledger by
getting a decision over Billy Boles
of Atlantic Christian. The other
two matches won came by virtue of "it. hut an untied glove causea
brief time-out and the Duke fighter
recovered from the effects of the
blow sufficiently to finish out the
fight.
The chief firc-works of the eve-
ning were furnished in the 155
pound bout when Joe Williams of
ECTC knocked out McGfll of the
Duke Freshmen in the third round.
McGill caught the Pirate boxer on
the point of the jaw with a beauti-
ful right cross early in the first
round. The blow seemed to befud-
dle Williams and his defense wilted
under a barrage of rights and lefts.
The East Carolinian continued to
fare badly in the second round. Mc-
Gill dropped Williams for a count
of eight about midway the second
stanza. The knock down seemed
to help rather than hinder the game
Pirate fighter, however, and he as-
sumed the offensive in the closing
minute of the second round. Wil-
liams went after his opponent ham-
mer and tongs as the third round
opened. He smashed hard rights
and lefts to MeGill's head and body
and the Duke fighter went down for
a count of nine. Williams continued
his savage onslaught when his op-
ponent regained his feet and con-
nected with several telling blows to
send McGill reeling along the ropes.
The referee, seeing that the Duke
boxer was out on his feet, stopped
the bout and awarded the fight to
Williams on a technical knock-out.
The remaining bouts on the card
were all awarded to Duke via the
decision route. The Pirate fighters
showed up well, but the Duke squad
seemed to have an edge in experience
and conditioning. Langley, fighting
for ECTC in the 155 pound class,
and Qurnell, the Pirates' 165 pound
representative, fought especially
close fights with their opponents.
The judges, however, ruled that the
Duke boxers had a slight edge in
both of these bouts. The East
Carolinians fared rather badly in
Mervin Frazelle to win another for
Atlantic Christian.
Billy Daniels was decisively heat-
en by Ferris of Wilson in an exhi-
bition bout on the same card. Far-
ris is not a student of ACC and the
match did not count in the official
scoring. Farris was awarded a
technical knockout after 1:55 of the
third round. In another exhibition
bout, Carl Langley of ECTC met
Hal Shaw of Wilson in a "no-
decision" fight. The bout went the
three round limit with Langley
making up for his lack of experience
with gameness and willingness.
Shaw is one of the best amateur
fighters in the state having held the
state high school championship belt
and twice winning the state Golden
Gloves Championship in his weight.
The Buccaneer boxers will have
a chance to even the score with
ACC when the Christians come here
February 16. The locals are out
for revenge and it is expected that
there will be an exhibition of plain
and fancy leather-slinging when the
two clubs meet again.
A summary of the events follows:
118?Mees, Duke, decisioned J.
Daniels, ECTC.
120?Blaloek, Duke, decisioned

122?Collins. Duke, decisioned

The treatment already has proved!

The scientists are Dr. E. W.
Schultz, professor of bacteriology,
and experimental pathology, and
his associate Dr. L. P. Gebhardt
They have been engaged in a long'
laboratory fight against poliomyel-
itis, and the record of the fight, up
t nw. is one of discouragement
and prolonged researches which
proved futile.
It was not until they discovered
that nasal instillations of zinc sul-
phate will create resistance to para-
iysis in monkeys for a period of
three months that they began to see
success ahead.
This discovery, and its twin, the
fact that the disease enters the hu-
man body through nerves in the
olfactory area, are considered the
greatest steps forward in the fight
against the most withering scourge
of childhood and vouth.

The Season's Gaiety
is in the Air
From the Presbyterian Student
Association here. Catherine Denson
was sent, representing the group of
eighty-five girls on this campus, to
the Presbyterian Convention on
Wurld Missions which met in At-
lanta, Ga December 2S-30, 1037.
witli nearly 1,200 young people, rep-
resenting all the Synods of the Pres-
byterian Church in the United
States, in attendance. This was the
first convention of its kind in the
church and was highly successful?
So well-attended, and enthusiastical-
ly received, that the church plans to
make of it an annual meeting.
Talking to the P.S.A. at its
monthly meeting. January 27. in the
Y Hut. Catherine said. "I cannot
tell you what this convention meant
to me. To see that many Christian
young people gathered together dis-
cussing world problems, the Christ-
ian approach to a solution, and our
relation to these things, was a real
thrill
She gave a summary of the im-
portant addresses and devotionals
and closed her talk with some signifi-
cant statements made at the confer-
ence.
This is the first time in the brief
history of the P.S.A. that it has
been able to send a representative
to a young people's conference of any
kind. Betty MeArthur. another mem-
