"We in this protest are not propos-
ing the indictment of the honor of
anybody connected with the election
committee. It is our contention that
faulty election procedures may give
-ay to irregularities in voting.
Upon hearing that some of the
students enrolled at ECC had voted
more than once during the election
concerning the raise in student ac-
tivity feea check was made as to
how the voting procedure was con-
ducted and the following discrepan-
cies were noted:
1. The would-be-voter and the voter
move over the same limited area
resulting in confusion to aiministrat-
ora and voters.
'J. There is no check of the identity
rf the person voting. Since different
veople man the rolls, there is the pos-
;1 ilitv that a person may vote num-
erous times using another name each
time.
3. There is the possibility that a
person who does not attend school
may vote because of the fact that

had grown lax. At the beginning of

they were cleared; however some poll
officials merely place the ballots on

When asked if the voting records
would stand up under scrutiny, Miss
Aycock answered no. Mike Katsias,
SGA : resident asserted that our vot-
ing records had never been flawless

ecutive council members that since
the election was wide-open for ir-
regularities, that a re-vote would be
in order. Put without proof of an
irregularity having taken place, they
were powerless to suggest a re-vote.
Mr. Ragan had notorized statement
of someone who was not a student

ects to re-enter East Carolina soon,
Ragan was reluctant to turn over
the statement until he found out
how it would affect the signee.

Rapid Speed Ends Life A Yuletide Tale
V
( lasses were over. Christmas holidays
had begun. Students packed their suitcases
nd began the long trek homeward. They
were inxieua to get home to Christmas shop
t begin the festivities.
A group of students headed toward
Charlotte. They had a long way to go. The
roads were good. There was little traffic.
They huri led along, picking up speed when
they c mlu. A car came towards them and the
driver blinked his lights indicating that there
w;is u whammy or a patrolman up ahead. The
students -lowed down.
Later they regained their -original speed.
The students in the back seat turned around
to peer Intermittently out the back window
to make sure no cop was in sight. They kept
a good watch.
The students were making good time.
They drove faster and faster.
In the woods at the edge of the road a
trolman kept his lonely vigil. His job to
apprenend all speeders, to try to protect those
ho risk their lives and the lives of others by
bi eaking the law.
lie saw them speed past, cursed under
his breath, and started his car. He came out
of thi wovds onto the highway. Two cars
were now between him and the speeding stu-
dents. He gunned his motor. He tried to catch
them.
He passed the two cars and looked in
vain for the carload of students. They must
be far ahead. He drove faster and faster.
Then he saw them. Before he reached
them he called for an ambulance. But medical
aid would do these students no ood.
The car was overturned in a ditch just
the r ad. Four students lay deaddead
bj their own hands, their carelessness. The
patrolman had been too late. The speeding
r had missed the curve.
Fires Cause Awareness
The recent fire at Our Lady of the An-
gels School in Chicago in which close to 100
children and several nuns perished or were
s riously injured has caused school officials
all over ihe nation to be more aware of the
possibilities of fires in their own schools.
Some schools have set-up rigid fire pre-
vent! n procedures such as fire drills. Some
havo turned their fire prevention program
r to the capable hands of the city fire de-
partments.
East Carolina has been lucky thus far;
we have had no large fires. For this reason
we have grown lax. Cigarettes are thrown in
trash cans outside of classrooms. Although
these cans were placed there for cigarettes,
y .ro often mistaken for waste cans and
usually filled with paper.
.lthuugh there is a rule against smoking
in classrooms, many teachers allow it.
There are no fire drills at East Carolina
in any buildings. There seems to be no fire
prevent 71 program whatever.
What would happen if a fire broke out
in Austin Building? Would the many stu-
dents and professors on the top floor perish
did those in Chicago? Or would we be
lucky? Who wants to take such a chance?
Students should be made aware of the
dangers of fires here on campus. They should
row what to do if a fire broke out in any
building on campus, especially Austin. We
uld have a fire prevention program. We
should obey fire prevention rules. We should
have fire prevention rules.
Dean Ruth White reports that there has
been talk of having fire drills in the women's
dormitories. This is good. This is wise. When
over 100 persons are housed in one building,
the possibilities of a fire pose a great danger
to all concerned. A fire drill would not be
silly, elementary, or childish; it is essential.

Theta Chi pledgee
By BETTY JEAN MOBLEY
The Christmas is symbolic of some-
thing different, to almost every per-
son.
As a child grows older, some of the
fantasy of Christmas departs for-
ever. Christmas morning, neverthe-
less, is still very exciting. The older
hoys anil qirls also look forward to
annual Chiistmas plays, drawing
names, Christmas carols, and school
and church parties. Christmas in-
cludes getting out of school, picking
out pecans, eating sweets, and stay-
ing iv; late. They also wish for a
white Christmas and a present from
1 special friend.
To sophisticated young adults the
yuletide season is a gay social whirl.
New clothes, fancy parties, cashmere
sweaters and misletoe constitute the
holiday season. Friends are home
from school; there are long mornings
just meant for late sleepers and long
nights made for gaity and fun.
For those who have been away too
long, Christmas is the time for that
visit back home. The serviceman, the
career girl, and the favorite nephew
return to old friends and relatives.
To them Christmas denotes renewed
friendships quiet evenings, small
parties, and fine food.
Christmas signifies love and giving
for most parents. Those that help
Santa for the first time received a
special thrill from their giving. On
Chiistmas morning parents exclaim
with mock suprises at Santa's gifts.
The rewards derived from watching
shining faces are significant of the
yuletide season to many parents.
Unhappily Christmas is a burden to
sumo people. The harried house wife
has extra work at Christmas time.
There are more cooking and cleaning,
too much company, and children
underfoot. Christmas represents use-
less delay to some businessmen. They
dislike office parties and begrudge
Christmas bonuses. Hardheaded pub-
lic servants scorn the Christmas spirit
that stimulates the annual rush.
The story about the Williams
family illustrates how Christmas is
celebrated by many neople. On a
rireay Christmas Eve, the Williams'
were eating the last of their scanty
provisions. There was no joy in the
carts of this desolate group.
Suddenly, a handsome man burst
into the room and cried, "David, I
am your long losf brother Ed. Come
with me and you shall never want
again Ed had been in Europe for
many years, and there he had became
very wealthy. The only thing he did
not have was the love and warmth of
a home. He promised David he would
supply his family's every need in
return for their love.
Under the generous agreement of
Uncle Ed, the Williams' became a
very influential family. One summer
day. ten and one-half years after the
fateful Christmas, a lady who had
known the Williamses during their
poverty came to call.
"You know Mrs. Williams said
"that David and Ed are in business
together. Uncle Ed furnishes all the
ca tial and does most of the import-
ant work, but David handles all the
moneythat is, the projects. I de-
dare, the girls keep me so busy when
they're home from 3chool chatted
Mrs. Williams. "They have to buy so
many clothes and entertain so much
it's almost a burden. By the way,
we're having a little celebration today
in honor of Uncle Ed's birthday.
Won't you join us?"
Seated at a beautifully set table,
the humble woman noticed that the
guest of honor was not present.
"Where is Uncle Ed?" she asked.
Mrs Williams stammered and then
explained , "Well, you see, the table
only seats fourteen so there's really
no room. Anyway, Uncle Ed doesn't
mind
Aa the family wished each other
1 merry time on Uncle Ed's birthday
?nd opened the gifts they had ex-
changed, the kind visitor stared in
amazement. "Are there no gifts for
Uncle Ed?' She asked.
Of course, we have gifts for Uncle
Ed answered Mrs. Williams. Yes-
terday I bought some handkerchiefs
for only a quarter piece that look
hwt like linen. I got some ties for
bfif price because they were soiled a
little. Uncle Ed won't know the dif-
ference
This story does seem a little far-
fetched; but to condemn the Wfl-
Jbmses is to condem one's self. Wtoea
man was poor and helpless, Christ
came on the first Christmas night to
make those who accept the Word
joint heirs with him in his heavenly
Kingdom. Through His mercy and
goodness Mankind's spiritual needs
sre fulfilled and his heavenly home
assured. Yet, at Christmas, the time
of his birth, Christ it crowded out

DEATH Provides Tears
SALESMAN Reviewed As Best Play In Years
Last week several hundred persons
with the : emains of tears on their
faces left McGinnis Auditorium pos-
sessed with a feeling mingled with
depression and excitment. The pre-
sentation they witnessed was not
merely a play to be discussed and
remembered for only a few weeks.
DEATH OF A SALESMAN will be
talked about today, tomorrow, and
many years following because, in a
matter of few words, it was "jure
gold For the first time this review-
er Is qualified in saying that DEATH
was superb, a little word that is over-
used in most cases, but in particular
instance it i? the only adjective that
describes the play's entirety.
"Bubba" Driver has always per-
formed excellently on the EC stage,
but Saturday night his flawless in-
terpretation of Arthur Millers prized
character, Willy the salesman, marks
the most 15 riceless acting that I have
ever watched on this campus. He
changed cnaracter with the ease of a
trooper and held the audiences' at-
tention from the time he hovered onto
the stage until his quick exit. The
fact that he was portraying a char-
acter elapsed, Mr. Driver WAS Willy.
When Willy died, a part of the audi-
ence seemed to die with him.
Driver does not deserve just or-
chids, he should be awarded an entire
collection of orchids and the gold
metal for the best actor of the year.
And following in his footsteps,
another ; erformer goes down in East
Carolina's history, Leigh Dobson.
Leigh, in the part of Linda, Willy's
wife, surprised everyone in her first
dramatic role. The almost perfection
of her portrayal was in itself a mir-
acle, but to describe the feeling she
must have possessed is beyond words.
Her laughter, her screams and her
tears were that of a woman who
worship; ed her husband with undy-
ing love. Over Willy's grave Miss
Dobson brought tears to the stone-
face and placed a lump in the throat
of each viewer. Along with the ter-
rific Mr. Driver, Leigh Dobson also
takes her place with the cream of the
crop.
Jim Roper, a newcomer to the play-
house, and Bill Haislip. to be remem-
bered for ADMIRABLE CRICHTON,
Vere commendable in the roles of the
two beloved sons. Jim, not only looked
his part, but played it with the air of
a professional. Bill as the he-man
boy in the past wasn't quite as be-
lievable as he was in the role of the
casanova, in which he seemed very
competent.
Larry Craven and Charles Jenkins,
father and son, were the comical
characters of the play. Larry handled
his satrical lines confidently and even
looked typical with a cigar poking
out of his mouth. Unlike Mr. Haislip,
Charles Jenkins projected better as
the young bookworm in the past. In
the present looked fairly ridiculous
with a bottle of scotch in his paw,
but he looked more like a business-
man than anyone save Bob Johnson,
who stole a few lines from Willy, as
the practical businessman who is mi-
nus a heart.

been the best character part, but

Lib Townsend wasn't quite seductive
enough in her black slip. Her roman-
tic scenes were entirely too stiff to
grasp the proper mood. About the
only attribute she occupied was her
blood curdling laughter.

minate the stiige for a few moments

The rest of the supporting cast
were good in their respective roles
and should he congratulated for their
job well done.
Paul Minnis of the art department
designed the sets and congratulations
are extended to him and his accom-
plices for their part in setting the
atmosphere for the play.
Dr. J. A. Withey deserves a hand

mittees, and R. T. Rickert, technical

end Janice Saunders, assistant stage

for their necessary roles capably
done.

Dear Editor:
Jack and Jill went up the hill as
the story goes.
It was the first time they had been
p thp 'ill since they had spent their
previous 17 years in the cradle, and
:t few years in the lower classifica-
tions of indocrination. It was a first
anil they were stricken with a horrible
ease of nerves. And rightly so for the
hill was steep and they were tired
after such a hard climb for "goodies'
through the halls of learning.
But despite this fact both became
reconciled to the fact they were "out
of their league After a while both
became adjusted to their surround-
ings' and started to branch out into
the extra-curricular world around
them.
There were trying times but Jack
and Jill had the guts to withstand the
situations that engulfed them. You
see both were editors of the college
newspaper.
And it was an honor! So they
thought.
But they were wrong. You see be-
cause they were misled during their
early years of indoctrination. They
wore led to believe that freedom of
the press existed on the hill.
They were definitely wrong.
As the story goes Jack and Jill
tumbled down the hill in a fashion.

Dear Editor:
The story "On Detecting Commun-
ists" by a "Transplanted Yankee"
should have been called "Phillup
Space for that is about all it did.
But "Transplanted Yankee" is really
a MAN! He states he has received
much of his education from the South
"through her generosity with schol-
arship s, fellowships, etc and his
present monthly paycheck.
About 90 of the Southern people
oppose Communism and race-mixing.
Did somebody say something about a
a "bad conscience?" Nuff sod!
Seems like "Transplanted Xnke"
doesn't care for that Nasty Old Pro-
fessor who talked about those nice,
parity-waist "Reds' (Communists to
you) who spread interracial-and left-
wing, radical propaganda through
some college and university Founda-
tions and their lecturers, "liberal (?)"
professors, "liberal" text-booka, etc.
It seems like the Nasty Old Pro-
fessor documented his evidence, which
should satisfy any aspiring young
Ph.D or other "egg-heads
Now we Southerners like Yankees
even transplanted ones. In two
World Wars and the Korean mess
kicked up by those heavenly people
called Communists, many of us fought
side by side with Yankees. We found
them first-class fighting men and
buddies, as our grandpappies did in
1861-65. But we Southerners like
Yankees (AND SOUTHERNERS)
who believe in the Red, White, and
L!uenot just, the Red, Black, and
Tan.
We hope to hear more from "Trans-
lanted Yankee" and his kind. A
leader of the newly organized state-
wide States' Rights organization here
in North Carolina said he hoped they
would go on writing and talking. It's
increasing the party membership,
and will make wonderful reading for
the folks back home along about state
election time. Out there in the coun-
try the folks retain some quaint, old-
fashioned American ideas about free
speech, free press, free assembly,
etcideas abandoned by most of
our city newspapers, radio, and tele-
vision stations. Such American ideas
as are contained in the Bill of Rights
were never held by Communists or
their fellow-travelers and the so-called
"liberals(?) There are liberals of
the old Voltaire school who believe
as Voltaire is reputed to have said
of the Church of his day: "I detest
and abhor everything you teach, but
I will die for your right to teach it
SUCH TRUE LIBERALS DO NOT

and free expression of their facul-
ties and students ON ANY SIDE OF
A QUESTION!
I will bet my recMxfce hound
(German 'police dog) against "Trans-
planted Yankee's" thin dime that he
could lick the Christmas stuffing out
of that Nasty Old Professor who
talked against those nice "Reds IF
he would only meet the professor in
a public debate. Maybe the Trana-
planted Yankee" is a mite afraid of
the Old Professor's two six guns. Now
we all know that in TV Western

faster by spreading too much rich manure
around its roots, and the young sapling will
burn itself up, because it just wasn't meant

This is just as true with a college, or
anything else. It takes time. The limb of

thing is. It takes ALL of these things, plus
a change of faces here and there, and other
modifications.
In the end, it all depends on time; blood.

Night Before Xmas
Brings Joy, Cops
By BILLY ARNOLD
If I were a Beat Generation Man, which
I'm not, I'd probably look forward to Christ-
mas something like this:
T'was the night before Christmas
And all through The House
Everybody was stirring drinks
And getting high and passing
out and all that.
The stockings were hung along
With the rest of The Girls
And there was entertainment.
The iight was burning on
The front porch with care in
Hopes that some customers would
Drop in, but after a while we
Figured everybody was either
Home with their wives or kids
Or else absent or something.
I was passed out with a beer
In the head with visions of
dolls dancing in The Ocean
When all of a sudden I
Heard quite a clatter.
I jumped up and screamed:
"What is the matter?"
A fat man came yelling
"A raid! There's a raid
I tolu him to be quiet that
I was fed up with it all and
He 34d okay he would.
But a cop came in swinging
A big stick around and hitting
People and all that.
He put his finger beaide his
Nose and Snorted and Laughed
And with a twinkle of his
Eye He swung at me I said
"Stop you fool. It ia Christmas
Eve
Then He called his cops in:
"Come Ralph, Come Johnny, Come
fcam and Harry; On Pete, On
Larry, On Oscar and Nixon
I heard them exclaim as I
Ran out of sight, "Come hack.
You fool
And I fell down and broke my
leg in the snow.
