campus organitntiene. Approximately
'en organizations are scheduled for
reviewing each Wednesday night.
The purposes behind this review
according to President Mike Katsias,

The president of each organization
is called upon to represent his group
at the review. They are asked suchjwill
questions as "Does your organization
erve its purpose; Does it serve the
student body; Does it participate in
campus activities; does it promote
chool spirit?" The organization pre-
sents are also questioned concern-
ing membership in their groups, and
ihe type of program they set up for
the academic year.
Also submitted by each resident
is a copy of the constitution, a list
of members and off.cers with direc-
tory information, information on
dues, time of meetings, and require-
ments for membership.
Organizations that have been re-
viewed so far are the Math Club, Art

East Carolina, initiated by a meeting
at the NSA on this campus three
v. eeks ago and the comments of
eeerftl teachers in this paper latt
week, have brought forth further
a-orda from students.
Bryan Harrison, a junior and Editor
uf the Campus literary Magattne
THE REBEL, has this to say:
The professor who said that East
i aiolina College had a high
atmosphere was somewhat justified
in his remark. The atmosphere could
be caused by the professor who made
his class of graduate students pledge
they wouldn't mark in library books,
the dorm "mother" who smells every-
one's breath as she comes In the door,
and the student who preslsts in re-
taining his inane, vulgar, Obnoxious
habit of rock and roll after he comes
to college.
"Yet 1 do not think that this is
the dominating atmosphere on the
campus 1 think we can ignor those
sloptiness, and you can say that
there is a good deal of that on campus.
However, I feel that in the past year
a great deal of advancement has
teen made to improve on the intel-
lectual climate. THE REBEL is de-
voted to that end. The Danforth
rrogram lists that as their number
one goal. And lately such groups as
the East Carolina Historical Society
school have sprung up.
It is my opinion that climate be-
gins in the classroom and the protes-
tor is in large part responsble for the
inclination of his students. There are
too many professors on campus who
ere teaching high school courses;
therefore it is no wondei that some-
one has accused us of a high school
atmosphere
Howard Cutler, a senior pre-min-
isterial student remarked, "I don't
think the situation here is so bad. I
believe the climate has improved in
the foUT years I have been here. The
intellectual climate here "
He said further, "I believe there
is a greater interest in intellectual
matters here on campus than is shown
on the surface, and it is the duty of
the students, fraternities, and pro-
fessors to motivate the existing in-
terest
Harper said students need not with-
draw from social activities to pursue
a intellectual interest.
"Admitting some students often
show little concern with anything
they cannot drink, drive or go out
with, they must realize they can have
an intellectual interest without grow-
ing a beard and rolling their eyes a
certain way when hearing strains of
Bach. It's posible to have an intel-
Dixie Hobgood feels that the intel-
lectual atmosphere here is "Just about
right for the caliber of students
Hobgood commented that "most of
the students, 1 think, are here to learn
to earn a living. There are those who
ate interested in culture and art and
literature. That's fine. But, as for
myself, what good is culture if you
UN bored to death?"
He commented that those most in-
terested in intellectual persuits are
those who have it offered in their
major fields of study such as English,
Art, and Music. However, science
majors, business majors, others, ho
felt, have to go out of their fields
for it.
"I think most people here are here
who have contributed to our scienti-
iic knowledge today, 90 per ceat of
them are alive at this hour
Dr. Johnson reasoned, therefore,
that "we have a tremendous body of
knowledge before us now. Our pro-
blem is that we do not know what
this knowledge, these facts, mean to
is as human beings
The Riverton, N. C, native used
this to illustrate his point about
change. Most of the things which we
now believe to be fact, he said, have
nly recently been discovered. The
old books, the old facts, are no lon-
ger valid.
Thus, he advocated, it would not be
sensible to try to solve our problems
of today by turning to the old books
for our answers. He applied this to
this region's biggest tension, segre-
gation.
"We must look at the facts as they
are right now at .this momentr
and act on those facts' he said that
hanges. "We are not our grand-
lathers he remarked.
"At the time of this country's
greatest political era, the South pro-
duced a large body of leaders He
pointed out Jefferson, Washington,
the Lees, Hamilton, and others.
'These men looked at the facts as
they were in 1776. They saw what
had to be done, at that time, at that
place. They disregarded all the old
beliefs, all the old books. They put
fiside the political thought of Plato
and Aristotle and the Old World.
They created a democracy.
"And out of their work grew a
trovernment which has become today
the oldest government in the world
vhich is still operating under its ori-
ginal constitution
Dr. Johnson called upon the South
to produce the leaders who will again
iead this country out of its biggest
problems. He acknowledged that the
1 roblems are vastly different, that
new solutions must be sought for the
new ills, but that by facing the situa-
tion, "by looking at the problems
with realism and casting aside all
traditions and emotions and doing
what must be done, "he predicted
that the South could once again lead
i he country out of its chaos.
Dr. Johnson spoke Wednesday
right, before a larger audience, on
the topic: Creativity and .Producti-
vity Again, he spoke of change and
its meaning to Man.
A former newspaperman on the
Baltimore Sun and now a free lance
journalist, Dr. Johnson was a guest
of the Danforth Foundation.
NEA Requests
Parents Visit
This week a special appeal is being
made to parents and to the public
in general to visit the tublic schools.
This is the 38th annual observance of
American Education Week. Over the
ration thousands of parents will sit
in the back of their child's classroom
to see their children study science
and to hear them read.
This special focus on the school is
sponsored by a host of groups includ-
ing the National Education Associa-
tion, the National Congress of
Parents and Teachers, the U. S.
office of Education, the American
Legion, and the local branch of the
North Carolina Education Associa-
tion.
"For students preparing to teach,
it would be a valuable experience for
them to take an interest in the ac-
tivities of this week said Coleman

NAACP Raises Fuss
Recently the University of Colorado had
for it's Homecoming theme "Dixie or the
Old South. Floats and dormitory decorations
carried out the theme with such symbols as
Negio mammies, picaninnies, and Uncle Re-
mus. The National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People raised such a row
that in the future Homecoming decorations
and themes may have to be faculty or ad-
ministratively supervised.
William H. Pinkett, a representative of
the Denver branch of the NAACP, threaten-
ed that "the whole nation will be informed
through the press of what has happened up
here
Pinkett added that the NAACP had also
registered it's disapproval over the Home-
coming Theme and decorations by writing a
letter to University President Quigg Newton.
In the letter the NAACP suggested that the
University administration exercise more su-
pervision in regard to similiar student en-
deavors so that "something of this nature
won't happen again
Omer C. Stewart, chairman of the De-
partment of Anthropology claimed that the
programing of Homecoming has been left to
the students too long. He said, "We should
ban house decorations altogether. It's time we
grow up His remarks stemmed from the
fact that "our students have a lack of con-
cern for the feelings of other people
A University had an Old South theme
for Homecoming. It pictured Negroes as they
were then. So what? If the NAACP want to
bury their heads as ostriches and refuse to re-
cognize the fact that there was a time when
the Negro was this way, why should students
at this university be punished or restricted?
The University of Colorado is integrated.
The students at Colorado University have
stood for equality of rights and for integra-
tion. Perhaps the NAACP should remember
the old proverb. "Don't throw stones in the
well that gives you water
Negroes advocate the banning of
HUCKLEBERRY FINN because the word
"nigger" was used; Pearl Bailey would not
sing songs from PORGY AND BESS unless
words were changed which pictured the Ne-
gro as illiterate ("Bess You Is My Woman
"It Ain't Necessarily So") ; a line from
STATE OF THE UNION was changed
("that's mighty white of you") because it
offended Negroes; and a University was cri-
ticized because it pictured the Old South as
its Homecoming theme.
For a people who are supposed to be so
pour, persecuted, and down-trodden, it ap-
pears that the Negroes are certainly pushing
theii weight around a lot.
EC Has Growing Pains
When a committee sets about to evaluate
the needs f an educational institution over
a 10-year period, it is quite likely in this day
and time that the needs will be underestimat-
ed rather than overestimated.
Though the Board of Higher Education
has recommended almost $700,000 for expan-
sion of physical facilities at East Carolina
College between 1959 and 1969, it is quite
likely that the Board has deleted from its
recommendations items that will be sorely
needed by the college before 1969.
The Board of Higher Education left off
its list of recommended permanent improve-
ments at ECC requests for a multi-purpose
agriculture building, a technical institute
building, a dormitory for 304 women and a
dormitory for 504 men. It also scaled down
requests for funds to construct a new health
and physical education building.
With the exception of the men's dormi-
tory, President Messick has asserted he will
seek to have these items restored to the re-
commended list o improvements by the
Board of Higher Education.
During the past decade East Carolina
has grown by leaps and bounds, its enroll-
ment increasing more than three-fold, Every
indication points to the fact that colleges and
universities throughout the nation will be
faced with an era of unprecedented growth
during the next 10 to 15 years.
Unless there is a radical change in con-
ditionsand there is nothing to indicate such
a changeEast Carolina will need all the
physical facilities which it (has requested
from the Board of Higher Education. In all
probability its needs will be beyond these re-
quests before 1969.
Once the people of the state approve such
a bond issue they will expect it to take tare
of the needs of the institutions for the period
specified. They will be reluctant to approve
subsequent funds after giving approval to
such a large outlay initially.
The record of growth at East Carolina
during the past decade strongly suggests the
requests of the college for plant expansion
between now and 1969 are a minimum. For
these requests to be scaled down may result
in a drastic adverse affect upon the ability
of the college to meet increasing demands for
service which will confront it between now
and 1969.

k,
I am writing you this letter In an-
swer to the Homecoming Queen latter
.f the past-President of the Student
" overnment Association, Mr. Phelps.
The reason I did not comment any
sooner was that I felt unprepared at
the time you asked me. I fait that
there was a need for a thorough in-
vestigation into the standing com-
mittee rule concerning the Homaco-
ing Queen.
Allow me to quote the Student Go-
vernment minutes of Wednesday, Oc-
tober 24, 1966: "Eddie Dennis made
a motion that the S. G. A. not allow
freshman girls to run for Homecom-
ing Queen next year, but to allow
them lo be sponsors. Walter Hasty
amended the motion to read that the
honor of being Homecoming Queen
be given to the upper classmen. The
'notion, as amended, was seconded
and passed
In order to complete the investigat-
ion, I also checked the East Caro-
linian of October 26, 1966. Mention
was made in this issue of the paper
of the change in the status of the
Homecoming Queen by Student Go-
vernment.
I feel that the new standing rule
which was passed by the Student Se-
nate will end the possibility If any
further confusion.
Once again, forgive me for my late
comment, but I felt it necessary to
check thoroughly all angles concern-
ing this incident.
Yours very truly,
Mike Katsias
President
Dear Sudents:
Every Tuesday night, at about 6:30
p. m chimes can be heard all over
the campus as they ring out tunes of
familiar hymns. They remind us that
it is time to pause for about twenty
minutes of our terribly busy lives and
go to Chapel in Austin Auditorium.
With all the confusion, noises, and
constant rushing, we need to atop
and in the quietness of the beautiful
organ music, seek the face of God. Aa
ve listen to the music, the words of
life that are spoken from the Bible,
mi the audible prayers, a peace
floods our hearts and we realize anew
the great wonders and the majesty
of our God.
When we consider the blessings
that come our way, it would seem
that the auditorium would be filled
each week. Most students, however,
fail to recognize the value of chapel,
and therefore, do not attend. If an
outsider were to attend one of these
vesper services, he would probably be
surprised at the seemingly lack of
interest of the student body in such
a program. If it is worthwhile (and I
definitely do believe that it is) then
why do not more people attend? The
reasons are various and numerous
and many of them very shallow. Per-
ns ps we Christians fail to see that
not only do we as individuals receive
much benefit by going to Chapel, but
that our very presence there is a
positive way of witnessing for the
Lord.
God has blessed us in a myriad of
ways. Just to be able to come to col-
lege is certainly a wonderful privi-
lege and opportunity that millions of
young people do not get. Whan we
consider the growing need of more
physical and mental hospitals for
patients with diseased bodies and
minds, and when we think of the mil-
lions of people the world over that
are dying of starvation and of cold,
doesn't it do something to us? Look
at yourself 1 Can you walk? Can you
hear? Can you see? Can you talk?
God has truly blessed you in a won-
derful way.
Two missionaries were on campus
Monday night at a Christian fellow-
ship. They told us of how the natives
of Cuba and India are so hungry for
the Gospel. The natives have not had
the opportunities as we have to go
to church and worship the true living
God, but after they do hear the Plan
of Salvation, they cry out eagerly for
miore. "Tell us more they say,
"We'll get our friends and families
to come to the services if you'll only
stay and tell us more of this Jesus
Christ And they walk for miles and
miles and miles just to attend one
service!
What about us here in America,
right here on East Carolina campus?
we don't have to walk miles to go to
chapel; we don't have to beg to hear
more of the Bible truths. These op-
portunities are brought right up to
our "door steps but what do we do
with them? Do we not realize our
indebtedness to Christf Perhaps we
take too much for granted. Have you
ever stopped to consider what Jesus
Christ had to give up and had to
endure when He left the very throne
of God to come down to this earth
in the form of a man. He, the Son
of God, became man's servant. Al-
though he was marked, ridiculed, cri-
ticized, spat upon, left alone, hated,
and crucified for all ungrateful
kind, that we might have eternal life
with Him in heaven. Christ could not
have done sneva for usbut, what do
we give him in return? The Bible
says, "Ye shall be witnesses "For-
sake not the assembling of yourselves
together. . . " "Honor the Lord with
thy substance. . and "Let us there-
fore come boldly onto the throne of
grace that we may obtain mercy to
find grace to help in time of need

Dear Editor:
I think we .should give some thought
to the matter before we allow our
tuition fees to be increased by the
proposed $4 raise in the activity fee.
Most students have a difficult time
paying the present tuition fees with-
out an increase. It seems that the
increase will go mainly for entertain-
ment purposes. We must first ask
ourselves the question if this will
benefit the student population as a
whole or just the dog loving Katsias
faction. Students are not in the habit
of remaining at the college over the
weekends anyway. Most of them have
their suitcases packed before Wednes-
day in order that they will lose no
time in getting home.
Some people seem to think that the
college will lose its prestige if it does
not invite the "name-bands" to the
campus. I have been under the delus-
ion that college was primarily an in-
stitution for learning. Is this a
country club or a college? The potent
don't need these courting dance ri-
tuals anyway. Must we spend a lot
of Jack for these big name bands.
(Man. they are a drag anyway.)
Between our school band and some of
the better juke-box music and the
big name bands, is there so much
difference in the tune of the flute?
If we must have this form of social
lubrication, let us at least give the
student band members of our school
band a chance to get their hands on
some of this loose jack. It would be
a damn cite cheaper; the music would
be as good.
I have heard that the football team
needs more money for equipment so
that they can get into the Southern
Conference. At all the games I have
attended, they appeared to be on
equal basis with their opponents so
far as equipment is concerned. Is
equipment ail that is necessary to
get a team into a higher conference?
At Barium Springs High School,
which I attended in my happier youth,
we had very little money to buy
football eqnlpment with, but we were
always able to produce one hell-of-a
'ootball team. It's not so difficult to
explain. The boys just loved to play
footballthat's all. They didn't give
cne damn about looking neat or
modern in their uniforms.
Oh! By the way, I finally found out
why the television boxes were put in
the classrooms. They were installed
so that we might instruct the fresh-
man orientation classes on just what
we would like them to vote for when
the local school-political campaign
developes. This takes a great deal
of pressure off me; I thought for a
while it might have been to teach a
conrse through.
I read in the DAILY REFLECTOR
last Thursday of the North Carolina
Higher Board of Education's recom-
mendation for the appropriation of
$3,220,000 to E. C. C. for school ex-
pansion. This "expansion" includes a
proposed "expansion of Joyner Mem-
orial Library including air-condition-
ing, $303,000 Is some of this $803
000 going to be used to increase our
badly defected stock of books? After
all, it's the books and not the bricks
that really count.

round-top table, which was covered
with Kelly Green felt. A shaded
light from a dusty ceiling hung over
their heads, and the ancient bulb in
it dolled out yellow rays sparingly
to the table and the men; the rest
of the room was forgotten.
Gimpy, as usual, chewed on an
exhausted Tampa Nugget as he
watched the card shuffling. His chins
concealed his unbuttoned collar and
the hole near the neck of his tee-
shirt; now and then he squirmed in
his chair to relieve the incessant
itching of his huge rearcaused by
the long handles his wife insisted on
as soon as the first leaf fell in Fall.
Across from Gimpy sat Sheriff
Hackney, his sleeves rolled up, his
ten-gallon hat tipped over one fuzzy
black eyebrow, his eyes fixed on a
sack of bull Durham and a paper with
which he was rolling a smoke.
To Hackney's right Dapper was
counting his currency and muttering
in his bookish tongue something about
too many work hours in his day. He
did look haggard; his greying hair
was scattered scantily around the top
"Well, dammit, can you open or

replied, "your latent inner tensions

as he pushed the currency toward
the center of the table.
"Wait a minute, are you in Nose?"

"Naw, hell Nose answered, and
folded his cards. Gimpy looked back
at the Sheriff.
"Well, whachagonnadd?"
"I just raised you fat boy Hack-

and cursed, then the two raised each
of his head like sqggy Spanish moss, others bets for about five minutes
His coat was wrinkled, and his Van
lieusen had a stain on the front.
He finished -counting and scowled
across the table at Nose.
Nose was engrossed in shuffling
the cards; he enjoyed this, for he-had
learned to do a few tricks in the
process, like flipping them through
the air with one hand and catching
them in the other; this was more fun
when Gimpy finally said:

1958 Remembered
Nixon Must Fight To Survive
What Some Gall Apathy
Among The EC Flock Is
Better Labeled Gutless
By BILLY ARNOLD
By JAMES
Many politicians will long remem-
ber the 1968 Congressional Election
for many different reasons. Some
will remember it for the offices they
won, others for the offices they lost.
But chances are good Vice President
Richard Nixon may remember it
longest of all as the beginning of his
political downfall.
Most political observers agree if
the Republicans had to nominate a
successor to Eisenhower this very
minute, Nixon would still get the
nod. But these same observers hasten
to point out that Nelson Rockefeller's
startling victory in New York could
have a very significant influence on
? heir choice two years from now. The
vibrant enthusiasm and renewed hope
his victory has generated through-
out the party is ample proof to sup-
port this belief.
A few short weeks ago Nixon had
the nomination sewed up tightly. All
he had to do was follow his past
nattern of allowing his beliefs to
coincide with the President's and tak-
ingonly a moderate stand on contro-
versial issues. At that point, however,
he conceived the idea that a more
active participation in the coming
campaign on his part would strength-
en his position even more. He there-
upon jumped headlong into battle,
campaigning vigorously throughout
the country and engaging in the Tru-
man type of "Give 'm Hell" speeches
in many instances. Other Republicans
loon took the cue from him and
followed suit with similar namecall-
ing techniques. Their strong words
failed to produce votes, however, and
as is commonly known now, the en-
tire campaign so closely associated
with Nixon fell flat. Many Republi-
cans actually blame the Vice-Presi-
ent and his campaign methods for
the party's feeble showing.
Meanwhile, the race for Governor
between Averill Harrlman and little-
i-nowii Nelson 'Rockefeller was taking
form in New York State. Governor
Harriman's re-election was consider-
ed such a sure thing at first that
only the fact that both man ware
millionaires aroused any interest. As
the campaign progressed; however, it
became more and more obvious that
Rockefeller's magnetic personality
M. CORBETT
rnd ability to meet people were win-
ning votes by the thousands.
During the course of his campaign
he isolated himself from the Republi-
can party as much as possible, men-
tioning the name only a few times.
This proved to be a wise move. Fol
when the votes were counted, the
clarkhorse Rockefeller had supris-
mgly unseated his Democrat oppon-
ent. The amazing thing about the
outcome was that Republican Rocke-
feller had won at a time when his
party was losing practically every
other election in the country.
. Many prominent Republicans have
feared Nixon lacked the vote getting
ability and supported him only be-
cause they had no one better. Rocke-
feller proved he has such ability and
will certainly have a large number of
Republicans who see him as a potent-
ial President.
The type of campaign he conduct-
ed is another point in Rockefeller's
favor. His methods were less noisy
than Vice President Nixon's, but
! roved to be much more effective.
Being a newcomer on the political
scene may help him. And his financial
position as a millionaire is certainly
no handicap in the eyes of fellow
Republicans. All things considered,
Nixon appears to be in the unfamiliar
position of having to gain the Re-
publican nomination by achievement
rather than heredity.
Student NEA Meets
Student NEA will hold its monthly
meeting Wednesday, November 19 in
Flanagan Auditorium at 0:80. The
program will be mock job placement
interviews.
The four students to be interviewed
will be Science Major, Elizabeth
Ann Bowman; English Major, Jack
Birmingham; Social Studies Major,
Lucas Allen; and Elementary Edu-
cation Major, Nancy Ann Fisher. Mr.
Julius H. Rose, Superintendent of
Greenville City Schools, and Mr.
Arthur AbTord, Assistant Superintend-
ent of Pitt County Schools, will con-
duct the interviews.
For the past few weeks there has been
a lot of talk about East Carolina's intellect-
ual climate. Teachers have commented on v.
a few students have toyed with it, the SGA
has paid it lip service.
But nobody has offered any suggestion
as to how such a climate can be improved
or established.
Iet me.
First cf all, the basic problem is not a
ack ot intellectuals and individuals. It is a
lack cf guts. For some reason, be it imposed
by the sch ol or the area or Southern tradi-
tion, students here are afraid of their own
voices. They will not speak out for what thev
think, what they want, what they feel is
right, or wrong. If they feel one way or
another about any issue, thev keep it to them
selves.
There can be no climate unless there h
s me show of feeling and beliefpositive or
negative, good or bad. There must be some
opinion, some stand, some feeling. There can
be n climate in a vacumn.
It is not that students here have no
means of expression. That is what the news-
paper is for. That is what the literary maga-
zine is for That is what the SGA and stu-
dent elections and campus votes are for.
There are no chains about the necks o
East Carolina Students. There are no Great
White Fathers who hold the students voice-
less in thtfr fists. Perhaps the students
think -so Perhaps, even, there are some
Great White Fathers who think so.
But there aren't.
This school belongs to the students, if
the students want it. If the students wish,
they can stand up and speak their feelings,
they can print them in this paper, they can
express tnem in the REBEL or in class or in
other ways.
The problem isn't that they can't make
their presence felt. It is that they lack the
guts to make the effort.
If students think the parking situation
here is lousy, they should say so.
If they dislike the methods of Dean
Tucker and Dean White, they should say so.
If they think the curricula stinks or the
food is bad or the teachers are stupid they
should say so. J

Mrs. Riddick Assumes Duties As
Housemother In Newly-Opened Frat Home
One of the new positions needed in
rapidly-growing East Carolina Col-
lege is that of fraternity housemo-
ther, filled now for the first time by
Mrs. Mabel Riddick of Greenville.
Mrs. Riddick'9 job materialized a9
ECC recognized the first resident
fraternity home here, the Pi Kappa
Alpha house, located at 526 Cotanch
St. Epsilon Mu Chapter officially
opened the doors to their house for
living aecomodations on September 6.
and Mrs. Riddick's job was begun a
few days later.
The new housemother's son Mac
Lancaster, an ECC graduate and
iharter member of Epsilon Mu Chap-
ter, is now teaching school in James-
ville, N. C.
When asked how she liked her job,
Mrs. Riddick commented, "It certain-
ly is a new experience for me, and,
has proven to be 1 most wonderful
one. 1 can't adequately express how
much I have enjoyed it from the
start. The boys are very nice; fun
loving and mischievious, but real
gentlemen
The new home of Epsilon Mu Chap-
ter is a fifteen-room brick edifice.
It includes three bathrooms and two
kitchens. At the rear of the structure
i a frame two-car garage.
Initial plans for obtaining the
house were begun in late August of
this year by the late Dr. Orval L.
Phillips, with the aid of several of
the chapter's brothers, Howard Bre-
tt rs. Mabel Riddick
wer, James Teachey, Roy Martin,
. nd Tom Fallow. Noting the opening
of the new Methodist Student Cen-
ter, the men learned that the build-
ing used formerly by that organiza-
tion was available for leasing. After
further investigation, the house was
acquired for use by the fraternity.
The budget by which the brothers
maintain their home is one suggested
by the national Pi Kappa Alpha
office, and all operational expenses,
maintenance, and other forms of su-
ervision are carried on by the chap-
ter officers with the support of the
other members. "The new house pro-
vides not only a home, but an oppor-
tunity to learn the problems of house
management and -other economic si-
tuations which will be beneficial to
11s in later years commented Don
Knight, treasurer of Epsilon Mu
Chapter.
When asked his opinion of the
home, Pledgemaster Howard,
Snuffy Brewer of the chapter an-
swered, "A chapter home is the only
real means of acquiring the true
fraternity spirit sought by all fra-
ternities
Recently, the members of the chap-
ter were hosts to the Pi Kappa Soro-
lity of ECC at an informal social
which took place in the chapter home.
The girls were given a brief tour of
the home after which they were
served refreshments. Tom Farlow,
i resident of Epsilon Mu Chapter,
stated, "We wish to establish a
friendly basis between our chapter
and all sororities at ECC. We consi-
der them a very important step in
our school's progress
At present eighteen of the twenty-
eight members of the chapter are
living in the home, and most of the
other members, plus several of the
fraternity's pledges are expected to
move in at the beginning of Winter
Quarter.

Education Week Calls For Re-Evaluation
By BRUCE CARTER
Since the ejection of the first Rus-
sian satellite into outer space, a type
of "Catch the iReds" hysteria has
been prevalent in our country.
In searching for the reason for an
absence of any previous American
satellite attempts, congressional in-
vestigators have pointed their damn-
ing fingers at numerous areas of
direct concern. Coming within this
withering crossfire has been our edu-
cational system from the elementary
level, up to and including college
level instruction. Such phrases as
' Return to the Three Rs" and "Too
many luxury courses or "More
Emphasis on Science and Math" re-
flect the intellectual confusion of
onr critics. Educators, whether in one
room schools or large universities
have been compelled to re-evaluate
their long range aims in education
pnd shorter term course objectives.
Specifically, why have we devoted
our lives to developing the potential
abilities of our students? Why have
we tried through our own involvement
in a si eciffc area to inspire our stu-
dents Do we believe in the recogni-
tion of intellectual freedom in all
areas of learning? Do we actually
recognize and meet the needs of our
individual students or is it idealistic
phraseology found only in some
methods course?
This re-evaluation does not apply
solely to those educators presently
engaged in teaching. Education ma-
jors and practice teachers should be
seriously concerned as for their spe-
cific reasons for entering the teach-
ing profession. Our profession already
lias too large a share of Its "un-
t'edicated baby sitters
Those, who have taught in schools,
know that the growth of a child is a
slow, laborious, but very rewarding
progress. A child is not a piece of
material which can be fastened to a
1 evolving belt, and after twenty
minutes of processing, be turned out
with a stamp of "OK" or "Reject"
on his forehead. A child's growth is
a natural process and is not limited
to intellectual or physical changes.
It also involves his preceptual de-
velopment, emotional growth and
creative development. Any crash pro-
gram designed to produce a creative
thinking scientist Is doomed to fail-
ure. The creative individual is not
the result of prizes, scholarships or
tujerior recognition. To develop cre-
ativity we must start with the child
in the grades, and, by nurturing, mo-
tivating, and challenging him, we
shall moid a sensitive inquiring in-
dividual through the meaningful
growth process.
Education week of 1958 is an ap-
propriate time for all educators, ad-
ministrators, and would-be teachers
to closely examine their own phi-
losophy of teaching and determine
just bow it prepares an individual to
c'evelop and maintain his stability in
this apprehensive atomic era.

Since her arrival in the United
States January 28, Pie Nio Kam, a
college professor from Djaharta, In-
donesia, has visited the campuses of
five universities. During spring
quarter she was in Wisconsin and
('uring the summer she visited and
observed in Missouri, West Virginia
and New York. She also attended the
international Home Economics Con-
ference at the University of Mary-
land.
Even though Miss Kam is enrolled
in several Home Economics courses
at East Carolina, her main purpose
while here is to observe rather than
to learn. The Office of Education in
Djaharta worked with the Office of
Education in Washington in schedu-
ling Miss Kam's visit so that she could
spend every quarter at a different
college.
"East Carolina is not too big, and
not too small, but it's just right'
iej lied Miss Kam, when asked of her
impression of our campus She thinks
that the people in the South are much
friendlier than they are in the North,
and she feels that the climate is
probably the main reason for this
difference. She also said that the
peop in the South walk slower and
eat more rice than they do in the
North.
In connection with the academic
life on campus, Miss Kam heartily
approves of the close student-faculty
relationship that is evident in Ameri-
can schools. In Europe there is no
close relationship of this kind to
promote an' atmosphere conducive to
learning.
Miss Kam was very enthusiastic
about our library with its many
ooks. Since Indonesia has had its
independence for only ten years, it
is still striving to accomplish many
important educational tasks. There
is such a shortage of books in the
language of the ople of Indonesia,
that they are forced to use books
PIE NIO KAM, Indonesian Professor on tour of U. S. Colleges, finds tiT
not too big, not too small, "but juHt right
from other languages, such as Dutch
and English. This is one of the ma-
jor obstacles to their educational pro-
gress as she sees it.
When asked about some of the
differences in her ountry and ours,
Miss Kam cited as an example the
the American woman's pattern book.
In America, women usually look
through a pattern book just to de-
cide which pattern they will buy, then
they throw the pattern book away.
In Indonesia the women use the pat-
tern book as a guide to draw their
vu patterns, so they are always in
demand. The difference in the food
is one of Miss Kam's dislikes, the
food here is too rich and too sweet
for her. Also because of the differ-
ence in climate, all of the winter
clothes which she bought in the U. S.
will be useless when she returns u
Indonesia, for they have summei all
year long.
Ifisi Kam s study at fcast Carolina
College will conclude her visit tu the
United States. The Sunday before
Thanksgiving she will report to
Washington, D. C, for a final report
tf her observations. Even though lbs
will receive a certificate for her
studies at the various colleges and
universities, it will be of no value in
her country; her observations are oi
i rimary importance.
On her way back to Indonesia,
where there is a critical shortage f
teacheis, Miss Kam hopes tu travel
through Europe, so that aha
meet hei future mother-in-law
Says Frank Landing:
Book Publishing Is A Cut-Throat B
usiness
Author of the novel, WAR CRY at East Carolina as a freshman.
OF THE SOUTH, W. Frank Land-
ing spoke informally to students here
last week and told would-be writers,
"writing is hard work. It takes a lot
of heart and postage
Landing, who graduated from East
Carolina College in 1953, published
his novel six months ago "after work-
ing on itsort offor 10 years
The novel, which Landing terms

ments, tying into the theme of the
meeting, National Book Week.
Moving on, the slender English
Instructor at Rose High School of
Greenville, said, "I'm not a profes-
sional writer. I started writing here
What writing I've done since then
has been done merely out of interest.
It is a hobby.
"Maybe someday I will be a pro-
fessional writer. But not now. A pro
is one who makes his living writing.
And that's pretty hard to do
Landing told the group that he
has learned some things "in this
business of writing and getting a
book published" which he amited to
"a? on for what it was worth.
"Publishing is a cut-throat busi-
ness he stated. "The people who
publish books care absolutely nothing
about beginning your literary career
or furthering it or whether you even
have one or not. They are business-
men. They are interested in publish-
ing what will sell

books are not the ones that a:
published. There are many good
books which publishers won't touch
simply because they're too long, oi
too short, or perhaps it isn"t the
tight season. Sometimes they will
publish a book that isn't very good,
but which is easy to read, or which
is concerned ith a subject interest
ing to a lot of peojle "
Landing left the group these ofi
H9d comments on the writing-and
publishing struggle.
"Having a book published is not
where a writer makes his real money.
That comes in afterwards, when the
writer sells either the story or the
idea to movies or television or the
stage. If you depend upon book sales
alone, it'll take a long, long time tu
get wealthy
"1 always make an outline a dia

At least I do now. I didn't do that for
the novel before, but I've found out
that it helps a lot. This way you can
start writing anywhere
