To the students:
I am sure that you are not proud of the headlines relating
to the events of last Thursday night. Heretofore, East Carolina
College has been receiving commendation. But because of the
acts of a few men and women on our campus, as well as some
visiting students on Thursday night, we are humiliated and hurt.
It is regrettable that a few young women would encourage
wvak young men to imitate students in other colleges to enter
dormitory rooms for the purpose oi a "panty raid It is equally
regrettable that the young men had no imagination in motivating
something really worthwhile. It is more regrettable, however,
that students would resort to the cowardly act of throwing rocks
and bricks at public cars, even though there were only a few
of them.
When such groups gather, why is it that the Student Gov-
ernment representatives and other law-abiding students do not
i xert their leadership and influence for good? That is when they
are really needed.
In all this there are two things that I want to commend the
students for. There was no property damage, which showed that
there was no malice or desire to be destructive, and both Dean
Prewett and I were treated with respect and courtesy at all

ten o'clock the same night. Several
East Carolina male students had
joined in the first raid and reports
show that no damage was done at
that time. Jarvis and Cotten dormi-
tories were entered. Johnnie Harrell,
campus chief of police, had quieted
the first affair by threat of using
his gun. The looters got away with
quite a few garments with the help
o the coeds and seemed contented
for the night, after warnings from
Dr. John D. Messick, president of the
college, and Dr. Clinton Prewett, Dean
of Men, in both the men's dormi-
tories that they should all retire. The
college officials decided to make no
charges as a result of t1 e ten o'clock
outburst and Most of the men stu-
dents had followed their directions
and quieted down.
Chief Harrell said that officers
were kept on campus, however, be-
cause of rumors spread in Ragsdale
Hall that the raid was to begin again
at one o'clock. The officers were not
disillusioned by their wait.
Second Disturbance
The chief said in court Friday
morning that he and Dean Prewett
were at Ragsdale Hall at the time
the second disturbance occuurred.
The Greenville Chief of Police, S. G.
Grbbs, reported that only a few boys
were involved in the entrance of
Wilson Hall at about one o'clock.
Roi ert Taylor, one of the defendants,
admit ed in a signed confession that
he was the "look-out" man for Bill
Ourry and Pete Hill who actually
entered the dormitory, got several
pairs of panties and escaped before
they could be apprehended. Officers
chased Taylor for a distance they
approximated at five miles and on
his arrest he was found to be wet
and cut from falling in a drainage
ditch. He was found underneath a
ijiarked car on Anderson Street. Hill
and Ourry admitted entering Wilson
Hall after being traced through heel
marks outside a window at Wilson
.Hall. The other students involved in
the second fracas were not caught.
They had busied themselves throw-
ing rocks, bricks and a soda bottle
at the cars of Chief Harrell, Alumni
Secretary James Butier and cars of
the city policemen.
Trial for the three men wag held
in the City Hall here last Friday
morning. Judge Charles Whedbee
presided over the hour-long discus-
sion with over fifty students from
the college sitting in the courtroom.
The men entered the room noncha-
lantly but assumed an air of sohriety

FRIDAY. MAY 6
Imitation Is Suicide
The farcical publicity afforded East Carolina
by the "juvenile" panty raiders left many proud
students of our thriving school with somewhat
dampened spirits. To the majority of the students,
the pantv raid of last Thursday night offered no
excitement and was far from being humorous.
One of North Carolina's well read newspa-
pers by the people of eastern North Carolina, in
a front page storv of the actions, termed last
Thursday night's events "the school's first panty
raid to be staged on the campus since the craze
hit the nation
Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote, "Insist on
yourself; never imitate The ringleaders of East
Carolina's first panty raid should concentrate
carefully on those few words. The craze, as the
newspaper formerly mentioned put it, which has
been sweeping the colleges all over the United
Sutes had ventured down into North Carolina
on a few occasions before hitting East Carolina.
With pantv raids being staged so near, a few
students were determined without further ado
that our school should also become publicized on
the matter.
It is certain that panty raid preparations
had been in process by male students for some-
time and that knowledge of the raid was known
by many ot the women students on this campus.
Without close co-operation of these two parties
it is doubtful that the disturbance would have
been so successful as it was.
Severe punishment bestowed on such a small
percentage of those involved in the fracas seems
incredible. The party members in the background
who so defiantly urged those on should also be
credited with their part in the ludicrous affair.
?J. F.
Struggle For Recognition
At a. recent meeting of the Student Legisla-
ture the question arose as to whether both the
C-Kditors o the East Carolinian would be grant-
ed seats on the legislature and executive council.
The entire legislature, including the main officers,
was stumped by the question which brought about
a lengthy discussion. One possible solution was
suggested but it failed to pass when it was pre-
sented to the body. This recommendation stated
that Jimmy Ferrell would represent the paper as
Editor and Joyce Smith would remain as SGA
Reporter. Joyce would also represent the paper
on the Executive Council.
The main objection against granting two
- the fact that the East Carolinian would
then have two votes. May we ask, however, "Just
what is so wrong with granting two votes to the
paper1' In ur opinion, the East Carolinian is one
of the most effective advertising devices at East
Carolina. Stop for a few minutes and think of
the people who read the East Carobinian. What is
i in this paper certainly has a definite bearing
on many people who are concerned with the af-
fairs of the school.
The staff puts much effort in trying to make
this an effective publication and one of our pri-
mary aims is certainly to please the students at
East Carolina College.
As was pointed out by one of a few con-
cerned students, the newspaper represents every
student and alumni of East Carolina College.
This publication is not one that is confined to the
interests of a few, but every individual or group
at East Carolina can be a part of this paper.
In that this paper does play such a large
role, why would two votes in the Student Legis-
lature be so harmful?
A point of clarification is needed in connec-
tion with the SGA Reporter. Some students are
under the belief that by giving the Co-Editors
two seats the paper would automatically have
three votes. We would like to point out to these
students that the SGA Reporter is an SGA posi-
tion and not a newspaper position. It is true that
the editor recommends this reporter, but someone
has to make the recommendation and who is in a
better position than the editor to make such a
recommendation ?
At the next meeting of the Legislature we of
the paper would like to hear more thoughtful
thinking on the part of the members.
Why not settle a matter while it is in discus-
sion While the discussion at the last meeting
was still in process the first vice-president moved
adjournment. Is it not better to solve a problem
at the time of discussion rather than postpone it
f r a week or two? This only necessitates another
lengthy discussion. It is true that some matters
require postponement because of lack of informa-
tion, but this matter is not a good example of
such.
Members of the Student Legislature are re-
quired to pass a parliamentary procedure test in
order to hold a seat on the legislature. During
winter quarter such tests were administered.
Why not make this effective for the entire body?
It would certainly alleviate much confusion and
unnecessary discussion. We would also like to see
the parliamentarian take a more active part in
his work as he would be able to stop some of the
unnecessary discussion.?J. S.

topic which may have been forgotten

Initially we want to speak about
the significance of the Awards Pro-

doe3 its work during the Spring quar-

,f , vestigating through the SGA,
the college publications and the vari-
ous departments of the school to learn
the names of those students, who
through their activities during their
enrollment at East Carolina, deserve
special recognition.
The committee feel that reward
should be given to those who have
contributed a maximum of service
to the college and act for the Student
Government in presenting these re-
wards. The reward is in the form o?f
a certificate bearing the seal of the
college and signed by Dr. Messick

ai he college?" The significance is
great; those students who are hon-
ored by awards are only being given
then just recognition.
Inside The Nest
by Joyce Smith
East Carolina College is continual-
ly referred to as a suitcase college.
The outsider might easily form the
opinion that our school offers little
in the form of enjoyment on the
weekend. In stating that t"rings are
actually far from dull, we believe
'hat the few who do stay op for the
weekend will vouch for this state-
ment.
Just as regularly as Friday comes
many East Carolina students pack
t eir suitcases and head for their
re cctive destinations. Some go be-
cause of a toy or girl friend at home,
some because of habit, and others
go for various other reasons. Many
hav formed the unreliable opinion
? our campus is dull and unbear-
able on t c weekend, but if these
peo le would only stay up for a few
weekend with the determination to
have an enjoyable time, we believe
they would change their opinion.
Speaking for those who do stay up
for the weekend we can truthfully
say that, there is seldom ever a dull
moment. You will find recreation at
; e College Union, local movies and
i Of other places.
Informal dancing is sponsored every
Friday night in the College Union
as well as other forms of recreation.
W uh the coming of CinemaScope
we should certainly be able to have
newer and better free movies.
During this school year all of the
outstanding dances have been sched-
uled on the weekend. This has of-
fered many excellent opportunities
to the students.
i this season of warm weather
i -ents can always seek a good time
I y playing tennis or by going swim-
ming in the college pool. Also, we
migV add that the sun courts are
papular congregating points on the
weekends.
Wt believe that if more students
woul i stay up for the weekend a
closer relationship would develop be-
tween memfrers of the student body.
Weekends on campus, in our opinion,
play a major role in the college life
of a student.
Why not give it a try?
A Physical Education major, who
ha a deep interest in tennis, is oui
Who's Who for the week. This well-
known person is none other than
J. W. Browning who haiis to us from
Enfield.
In giving his reasons for choosing
Bast Carolina J. W. stated that he
had heard that, it wa.s a good teacher's
college. The fact that it was near
home also aided him in making a
choice. He never saw the school until
the day he enrolled, so that iid not
aid him in his choice.
J. W. was first impressed with the
friendly atmosphere that exists
among students at East Carolina.
In giving his final impression of the
school, J. W. says, "As far as I'm
concerned, it is the best in the state
Tennis has proved to be J. Ws
main activity while at East Caro-
lina. For the last three years he has
held a position on the Pirate tennis
team. This year, however, he was
forced to give up his position on the
team because of a back injury. We
feel free in saying that he will surely
he missed by his team members. Dur-
ing his sophomore and junior year
J. W. held the number five position
on the team. In the action that he
saw t"i year J. W. filled the numlher
lour I option. In commenting on his
tennis experiences J. W. related that
he especially enjoyed the trips made
by the tennis squad.
For the past two years this tennis
athlete has been a member of the
college Varsity Club.
With the exception of his sopho-
more year, J. W. has been affiliated
with the "East Carolinian" staff. It
seems as if his sophomore year wad
J. W. Browning
a little too busy to include news-
' aper work. During his freshman
year J. W. did editorial work, while
his last two years of work have been
mainly connected with the sports de-
partment of the paper.
In our opinion he has turned out
some outstanding sports articles.
Earlier in the quarter J. W. attended
the Columbia Press convention in
New York. For J. W. this was quite
an experience.
J. W. was a member of the Teach-
er's Playhouse during his Freshman
year. He ad a role in the production
"You Can't Take Lt With You which
was taken on a tour that included
Camp Iejeune and Kinston,
According to J. W he experienced
a slight emj arrassing situation in
this play. J. W. was required to play
a xylophone in this play, but due to
- e fact that he had no skilled alent
in this field a record player wa.s used
backstage. Somewhere in the play
- tnieone missed a cue and put the
record on before J. W. was ready
to play.
J. Ws interest included taking up
a new iptllt lltiat being golf. He

Other interests include swimming,
tncing, and movies. For the past
wo years ? W. rafereed basketball

mnd tins to be an enjoyable ex-
perience.
This past winter quarter found J.
W. doing his ; ractice teaching in
Stokes. Along with teaching ninth
'?i-a le health and physical education,
J. Y. coached the Jayvees in basket-
ball.
In giving hLs comment on this
rierienee, he says, "I enjoyed it and
t-he children were nice. The only
discouraging thing was the 44 achieve-
ment tests that 1 had to give and

this paper proves to be J. Ws big-

This Physical Education major aruj
English minor will graduate in May.
HLs future plans include a coaching
and teaching position in the Rich
Square high school. As J. W. stated;
Uncle Sam will robably want a few
years of his Life.
Although he will be missed around
the East Carolina campus, we are
ure that he will fill hiv. future posi-
!ions well.

"Brigadoon"?Spectacular!
The SGA pioduction of "Brigadoon"
offered the students of East Carolina
a niyht of outstanding entertain-
ment. We extend our heartily con-
gratulations to the fine "Brigadoon"
cast, Directors Dr. Elizabeth Utter-
back, Dr. Kenneth Cuthbert and the
rest of the production staff, the chor-
u the dancers, the special "Briga-
doon" orchestra, and the technical
staff.
Those singing the leads in the pro-
kiotion, Frances Smith, Travis Mar-
tin, Roy Askew, and Myii Maness
did a fine job. Frances Smith, as
usual, was sensational; and she and
Martin sai? very well together. Roy
Askew is to be commended for his
fine rendition of "I'll Go Home With
Bonnie Jean" and also "Come To Me,

Last One, He Says
Letter About A Lot Of Things
Dear Editor:
From the
time the first student
mot Friday morning until the "wee"
hours of the night the main topic of
conversation was "Panty Raids A
brief lapse Tor the weekend was en-
joyed ami then the topic was revived
by a few of the diehard students.
Threat of future raids, Bill Curry's
attitude toward fih1 bulwark of jus-
tice, and the firing of firearms by
the vi-iting and campus police has
-ven gone to such extremes that
Bermuda shorts have fallen by the
wayside.
I believe I am correct in saying
that the Veterans Club and the Young
Democratic Club are in full agree-
ment with the coiiege administration
in dishing out the punishment. I
remind you, the students, that this
week the funds for thds so' ool are
to be voted on by the General Assem-
bly. I suggest that in the future if
such activity as "Panty Raids" are
to go on, the instigators might first
check with the administration for the
calendar of events in the General
Assembly and here at the school.
Even though this might seem a
drastic example, I am reminded ttoat
Rome fell from internal corruption
and. disobedience. Are we to suffer
the same fate as Rome? If we, the
students, are content to copy other
schools for our "recreation" then I
heg of you to search your "mind"
for something original.
While in the service I had the
opportunity to eat some of the sorri-
est food in the world, I thought. Now
I've found a place where even the
service is suppressed in its efforts
to hand the defenders of the country
sorry (food. I have never in my life
had such fine watered eggs served to
me as I get here. On some posters
you might find "crisp fresh bacon"
advertised. You had better believe
that our bacon is crisp. The freshness
is (iou tful, but one good mean look
will reduce that lost hog meat to
broken bk? of wasted matter.
As you ;an see, even though moat
of Liio is in agreement with the
administration, there still remains a
gripe. I do not apologize for my at-
titude, but I close this final letter
of the year with apologies to none,
and a hope for a better school next
year.

To Prove The Inherent Danger
First Civil Defense Program For East Carolina College
by Emily S. Boyce
The ;iojeet of civil defense for
student at Beat Carolina College
o-rignoated in a Government class
under the direction of Dr. Kathleen
Stakes. Every member now associated
wkh the group was voluntarily en-
rolled to iearti basic civil defense
tactics. Thee sud-eut have worked
.nard Uhe.e last weeks preparing to
create a good civil defense program
oh this campus.
The project is designed to train
students at East Carolina College
to know what to do and how to do
u in cases of emergency. Such a
project is insurance to each of the
individual enrolled and to others.
This training may one day serve to
quickly organize-the students on this
cam u.s in emergency cases into work-
it k wm rgeney groans, equipped to
handle mass disorganization created
from a sadden bombing. Precautions
must be made; the world situation
ia in no position to be ignored. Steps
need to be taken to preserve some
manner of order in case of panic.
Tihere is a great deal of work neces-
sary to promote such a program to
cover a wide area and the persons
included in this area. The students
nave done such a large amount ol
constant ?ork on this program that
they need to be mentioned
here and complimented. Seldom is
such a active student participation
rded, no matter how small the
be. These students are
working hand-in-hand with a faculty
committee on the campus, but it has
seen the students themselves who
have i so much in organizing a
civil defense rograan here.
Allen Aicock. junior, is acting as
student civil defense director for the
college. He, with the help of commit-
teemen, have planned and executed
programs, enrollment, and publicity
bo a large extent and plan a great
deal more prompt projects in the
future. Being director is almost a
time job, it demands planning and
constantly being in touch with the
r students interested and the
.acuity members.
Louise Yelvelton, junior, is acting
a- & t coordinator and as sec-
re ary for the organization. She keeps
corapeSte records of all civil defense
meetings and blueprint future plans.
Workdnf under Allen and Louise
sbrivdng Student committee:
Linda Jones, Jean Clodfetter, Lee
Giles and Curt Hinton. These stu-
d-em meet witk the coordinators and
assist tanning the civil defense
programs. They 1ave been with the
group since the beginning sessions
and - nare their load of work neces-
sary to piece this unit of civil defense
in a high calibre.
T: e faculty committee is made up
of Dr. Stokes. Dr. L. F. Brawster
and Col. J. H. Partridge. These ad-
vriaons meet with the student group
and assist them in every way pos-
ie.

Latest reports on freshman Tommy
Jenkins have it that the former
Greensboro star is still unconscious.
Deckers have not allowed visitors to
see Tom and factual accounts of hi
condition are vajjue. However, it
seems that the Pirate baseball-basket-
ball performer's condition is much
the ame as it has been since the
accident.
For those who are not acquainted
with the details of Tommy's accident,
here is the story: While traveling
through the Chapel Hill area during
the Easter holidays, the husky 6-1
Buccaneer athlete was struck by a
v Deeding auto and smashed through
the windshield of his own car. In-
juries resulted to Tommy's head, face

An exciting new element has risen
in tjhe Eais-t Carolina baseball aggre-
gation which was unforeseen by the
league experts at the beginning of
the 1955 season. Those supposedly
in-the-know referred to the Mallory-
men as "a fast, sharp-tfaelding squad
with a superlative pitching staff?
Loving. Russel! 9th, and Ciine, I but the swatting is strictly KA-PUT
Gutpton 6th. (translation: louTsy). Of late, the
Pirates have become a power-laden
crew of homerun-crazy sluggers.
(iene Turner, a hustling Buccaneer
outfielder, leads the parade with five
round-trip blasts. The Monganton
swatters followed close by Big Bill
Ciine, who has two homers, and Cecil
Heath, Gaither Ciine, and Bucky Reep,
with one.
As a result orf the suddenly-ac-
quired hitting strength, the locals are
now riding atop the league with a
hot 9-1 record.
Coach Jim Mallory's diamond group
;jlays two exhibition games next week
which will give some indication of
how the Pirates stack up against
major competition. Tuesday night, in
Kins on. they meet Dixie Classic
Champions Wake Forest. Again on
Friday the two teams, will battle on
Reeky Mount soil. In an earlier
meeting this season, the Demon Dea-
cons clipped the skull-and-crossbones
crew 13-6.

By sheer determination and forti-
tude, Rodney Ledas, Petersburg, Va
has proven that a body-beautiful can
be achieved by even the smaller man.
When he began the bar bell lifting
four years ago he slightly tilted the
scales at a mere 118 pounds. Since
then he has built himself up to weigh
as much as 194 pouids.
Ron's arms are magnificent exam-
ples of taut muscles and measure 18
inches in circumference. His chest
measurement is 46 inches and his
waist simmers to 30 inches. Imagine
this build on a 5' 5" frame and you
have a char picture of this dynamic-
lithe weight-lifter.
His trophy collection has now grown
to 17 trophies that he has won for
lifting and phyisigue. In this year's Mr.
Virginia Contest held in Norfolk. Ron
placed a close second. At this contest
he also won the title of "Middle
Weight Lifting Champion of Vir-
ginia
Ron made a clean sweep of the
Tidewater Weight Lifting contest held
last February. He walked away with
t e "Mr. Tidewater" title and also
won first place in the light-heavy
weigh! class by lifting an almost in-
credulous total of 670 pounds. He
cleaned and jerked 260 pounds, press-
ed 220, and snatched 190 pounds.
Ledas said the most he has ever
prone pressed r.as been 380 pounds,
he has squatted with 410 pounds,
and curled 175 pounds,
Ledas began working out with the
bar bells in 1951, and a year later
he won his fhst trophy in the "Mr.
Capital District Contest held in
Washington. D. C, by placing first
in the "short-man Mr. Capital Dis-
trict" division.
When asked why he ever began
body-building, Ledas laughingly said,
"Some big old, mean guy threw sand
in my eyes, so I read a Charles
Atlas ad, and in six months later
I was a 'hody-heautiful Seriously,
Ron was very self-con.scious about
his sraallness, and thus by developing
his body he has cleared away this
complex that was so prevalent in
his youth.
For t e : ast several years Ledas
has taught classes In weight-lifting

East Carolina' proud golfers will
leave Greenville next Monday morn-
ing to attend the North State Golf
Tournament at Greenstjoro's Star-
mount Country Club. The powerful
Pirates, who are undefeated so far
in league competition, wall be favored
to successfully du'end the title, which
they have won six times in the last
seven years.
The local linksiters, under the guid-
ance of Coach Howard Porter, have
won four without a defeat. They de-
fatted Elon in two matches by scores
of 16-3 an'I 15 i -2 V, after gaining
nhutout victories over Guilford by
scores o? 27-0 and 21-0.
The Bucs have a well-rounded
.squad with plenty of reserve strength
down the Hne. They have not lost a
conference match since 1952, the only
year that they failed to win the
championship since their entrance
into the conference. They have an
undefeated skein of 18 straight
matches dating back to 1952.
Claude King, number one man for
t'ne locals, won the individual crown
in the conference last season by de-
earing Eton's Don Smith in an extra-
? ? playoff. He entered the Azalea
Open in 1954 and finished fourth
among the amateurs, who were some
of the best competitors in the Sauth.
His other hob ies, which include
hand-balancing, gymnastics, and
tumbling, are only added proof that
this conscientious, vigorous boy is
sincerely interested in improving his
physique. Ledas lives off a strict high
protein diet, and drinks at least three
or four quart of milk per day. His
main ami it ions are to one day win
the "Mr. America" title and open
up a gym of his own.
Ron is practice teaching in Win-
tervTlle this 4uarter. He plans to
teach physical education and health
in some high school in Virginia after
e graduates in summer school with
a B. S. degree. He has maintained a
"2" average in the four years he has
been enrolled at East Carolina Col-
lege which just goes to prove that
you can have "brains and brawn" at
the same time.

Bis powerful drives and perfected
jutting will toe large assets in the
Pirates' hopes for a successlful defense
of the crown.
Harry Rainey plays number two for
the Bucs and he has been a member
of the squad for the past three sa-
-ons. He has shared the spotlight
I with King in severs' matches this
year by gaining the distinction of
co-medalist. Rainey teams well with
King by .shooting in the- low 70's.
Pait Hunt, a senior from Durham,
holds down the number three position
for the locals. He is in his second
year with the squad and he has shared
co-medalist honors against Elon this
year. On the links Hunt also displays
outstanding form by keeping his
score in the lo-w 70's.
John Rainey, a freshman who i.s
number four man, teams well with
Hunt in team play. John's game
features very skillful putting and
he has been medalist in one match
thia season. With the experience he
will gain in his three more years of
eligibility, he will constantly remain
a dangerous threat to all Pirate foes.
He consistently holds his game in the
middle 70's.
Fred Sexton, a sophomore from
Rocky Mount, is in his second season
with the Bucs linksters. He is number
five man for the locals this year and
hi- game features a stern consistency
in the middle and occasionally hig:
70's.
Paul Gay, a senior from Wilson,
rounds out the top six on uhe squad.
(Jay has been playing golf for only
about two years, but has developed
an outstanding game which is high-
lighted by his long range driving.
This is his second season with the
Pirates and he usually shoots in the
low 80's.
Harold Beck and Tommy Grevitte
are strong reserves who give the
Pirates added strength down the line.
They are only sophomores and they
will have two more years ?f elig-
l'ility on the Pirate squad. King,

year's squad and their absence on
next year's squad will he sorely miss-

Dear Editor,
I am very sorry I have waited so
long to write this letter. I would
like to address it to the students and
teachers of East Carolina.
For the past nine months I have
lived in Greenville, an i I have learned
to like it. and I have found that this
is due to the very wonderful students
of East Carolina. You here at East
Carolina have really made me know
, those famous words "southern

arrived at East Carolina, 1 thought

rts from reliable sources. Tne
two studente who are Wing allowed

editors of the college newspaper that
rhy realize the seriousness of their
offences and and wish to make their

was submitted by the two:
To the members of the Student Body:
Both of us would like for you to
know that we regret taking part in
the "panty raids" here last week.
Not because we feel that it is ex-
pected of us, but because w( are
truly ashamed of taking part in some-
thing that was much more serious
than it seemed at the time and that
eould have resulted in an even more
serious thing.
We did not take part in the throw-
ing of any objects and did not want
to instigate any riot on the campus.
We do realize that we acted foolish-
ly, hoeer. and we want the stu-
dents to know how we feel.
The college administration has
dealt with us in a very cooperative
manner and are treating us nicely.
In no manner are we being forced
to say anything that we do not feel.
We merely want the students here
to know that w are sorry to have
brought so much criticism on our-
??elve- and on everyone else.
very sincerely.
Bob Taylor and Pete Hill
can never say thank you enough,
or in the right way, but I hope in
some way 1 can make you under-
stand just how much East Carolina
and the friendship of the students
have meant to me. I can never forget
you. I hve I will be able to return
to Ba?: Carolina next year, but if I
don't I would like to wish you each
and everyone the best of luck.
Again I wish to thank you for a
wonden'ul year here in the South,

Last week was national coin week.
Because the townspeople, faculty,
and students had their coins on dis-
play uptown, it was impossible to
have a display on campus at the
same time. Therefore, on Thursday
and Friday o. this week, a coin ex-
hibit is taking place at the Studen'
Union. The display is placed in the
stationery store window facing the
lancing area. Those displaying coins
are Dr. Richard Todd, Dr. Charles
Risher, Dr. John Bennett. Gus Manos.
Bill Purgenson, Chick Newell, and
other rnMraisraetists (coin collectors).
The collection consists of a type of
American coins, proof sets of Ameri-
can coins, gold pieces ranging in de-
nomination from 25 cents to 20 dol-
lars, comnn-morative half-dollars, pa-
per money, Confederate money, Is-
