N.Y. femcaeo + BosToR - Los AMSHLED + SAM FRANCIECO More Interest Shown In Student Elections That nearly three hundred more votes were cast in this year’s student elections than those of a year ago is an indication that the student body in general has developed more concern in the matter of selecting leaders. The vote cast in the major elections was the largest in several years. Most of the credit for the new impetus goes to the Women’s Student Government Association, which made a concerted drive to get students to the polls, in addition to urging them to vote their convictions. Each method used by the organization in bringing the seriousnes of voting before the stu- detn body was fair to each candidate involved. The elections were eonducted both honestly and adequately. One of the best arguments for not voting appears to have come from students who did not have classes in Austin Building, where the elections were conducted. Many of them suggested that there be more than one place of voting, similar to the system used by municipal governments. The only argument for such a system in this school is that it would more convenient. This year, as in other years, there was little congestion at the polls, those who really were concerned with the type of leaders they were to follow made it a point to go to the polls and vote, and since the polls re- mained open all day, it is likely that nearly every student had an opportunity to vote. Then, too, it was suggested that separate polling places be established for each of the offices involved in the election. We be-| lieve the present system of voting is all right. If students were allowed to vote at a different booth for each candidate it stands to reason that he might refrain from voting for all of them. Some position would be overlooked. All in all, when it comes to voting for leaders, one is just.as important as the other. One vote is just as valuable as another. An Argument For Progressive Education Honesty is the most sterling quality an individual can possess. It conquers evil and gives one the moral stamina necessary for a] well-rounded personality and agreeable associations with others. | Last quarter a plain case of cheating prevailed in a composition | course that is required of all students. The students did wrong in cheating. Failure would have been better. Below the surface, | however, is a problem confronting educators of today. As we understand it the trend in progressive education places | more emphasis on creating an appreciation for the subject than on grades. We do not know all the personal traits of the students) invovled in the cheating, but there must have been a reason for | their doing it, although it was wrong. In the first place the course was required and there was no way to evade it. Perhaps these students did not know how to write, had made failing grades} throughout the quarter. and had to turn in a good finished pro- duct in order to pass. The matter of making a good grade ap-| parently was more important to them than honesty. If there is a} practice in our educational system that causes sudents to feel this way, then something should be done about it. Students who can do good or fair work in composition find | it to be most enjoyable. Many of them would choose such a course | if it were elective instead of required. But provisions should be made for the unfortunates who are required to do work they never have been able to do, and could never make a passing grade regard- less of how long they took the course. It is this type of student that | is encouraged to cheat. | The matter of deciding what shall be required and what sub-| jects the student will be allowed to elect is a problem that con- fronts every educational institution. If obtaining a good grade is more important to a student than honesty, and the course itself developed his attitude, then some changes should be made in the school curriculum. We Are A Part Of The National Defense Program East Carolina Teachers College is the only educational in- stitution in the United States to have its quota of CAA students | doubled. This was made possible through the efforts of President L. R. Meadows, city officials and directors of the City Airport. Twenty students are receiving the training and many other stu- dents have asked what part they will be able to play in national defense through their flight instruction. There is more to flying in a time of war than combat. Planes have to be used for tran- sporting the wounded, medicines, food and other essentials. Should this country become engaged in a defensive war the students re- ceiving this training would be mustered into service that would THE TECO ECHO Watching The World Harold K. Teylor J emcee encenvenvencencemd: The British are still advancing on the African front. Giara- bub, hold-out oasis in the desert of eastern Libya, has been taken from the Italians. Giarabub is a minor Mohammedan shrine, the burial place of the Senussi Brotherhood, a desert sect with which the British have been friendly in this war. The capture was the high-spot of the varied developments in the far-flung African campaign. The fast mechanized British columns in Ethiopia are advan- cing towards their goal. The strategically important town of Neg- helli has been captured. British occupation of Ethiopia seems to be only a matter of time now. They have advanced steadily to- wards the capitol, Addis Ababa. Planes of the R. A. F. and the South African Air Force raided many other towns and have bombed railways to Addis Ababa. England is producing about 3200 airplanes of all types each} month. Huge four-motored American-made bombers have landed | in England and are in storage houses all over England. Soon we} will see the effects of our aid to Britian. The British people are, still sure of victory and with increasing aid from the United | States they are growing stronger every day. Yugoslavia’s Serb population protested a comprise adherence | with the German-Italo-Japanese alliance. Called traitors, andj threatened with death, Premier Cvelkovic and Foreign Minister | Cincarmarkovic left for the Axis Conference on a special train | cuarded by 50 secret agents. The Serbs constitute one-half of the | Yugoslavian population. Thousands of Serbs have fled the country | to join the Allies forces. It looks as if the Allies won't have to worry about Russia for| awhile. Russia gave Turkey a pledge of benevolent and helpful neutrality in case the Turks are attacted by Germany. Russia has her own interests around the Dardanelles. She is increasing her | armed forces on land and sea opposite the German military masses. 1 Japan seems to be drawing nearer the Axis powers. Japanese Foreign Minister Matsuokia is attending the Axis conference. Observers says that Japan is in no situation to go to war now. At home, Congress has passed the Lend-Lease bill and Presi- dent Roosevelt has asked seven billion dollars to aid Great Bri- | tian. Congress has passed on the seven billions and Secretary Mor-| yanthau is making plans for creating a new tax to raise the money. We Take You Now To... So you think journalism has lost its glamour? That there are | no longer any thrills to be experienced in this matter-of-fact racket of news transmission? Well, maybe . . . But at any rate, let us pass on to you the following article | from the Dartmouth’s column, “Give Us This Day,” initialed by | W. J. M, Jr. It furnishes an exciting glimpse at one phase of the | big-time news game: This is the CBS newsroom, 485 Madison Avenue, New York City, seventeenth floor. A lot of noise here. None of it very loud, but a lot. Most of it from the ten tele-type machines along the walls. They keep running all day long. ssociated Press. United | Press. International News Service. On the wall there’s a loud speaker and you can tell from the blurred voice that one of CBS’ correspondents abroad is making his report. Though the glass you can see a large fellow in a brown suit sittine before a mike in the studio. He seems to be listening to the | report we’re hearing. This is Berlin signing off . . There’s a pause. All you can hear is the noise of the machines. | The fellow behind the mike has been looking at the clock on the wall. Now he glances down at the yellow paper in front of him. | And now we hear from our correspondent in Tokyo .. . ‘nother pause. Then . . . Tokyo. The man on the leather couch in the studio—in the white shirt and bow-tie—is Elmer Davis. He’s sitting next to Major George Fielding Eliot, CBS miltiary anaylst, making notes on a | yellow pad as he listens to the correspondents aboard. Tokyo signing off... Elmer Davis comes over to a chair behind one of the mikes. Warren Sweeney—in the brown suit—introduces him. Davis looks at the clock, then down at his notes and begins tc speak. In five minutes he’s finished. He comes out into the newsroom now with several other men who edit the news and they all look over the reports on the ma- chines. Then they discuss the president’s speech which is to be broadcast in an hour. They talk about a round-up of editorial opin- | ion they plan to do an hour after Mr. Roosevelt has finished speak- in. It’s never been done before. But they’re going to take a crack | at it. Back in the newsroom at 11:13. The president finished his speech an hour ago and Major Eliot is just closing his analysis of the day’s news. Bob Trout, newcaster, is seated beside the major in a sweater with an open collar. He has just received a galiey proof of the editorial on the president’s speech from the New York Herald Tribune. But that’s all he has in hand. Major Eliot is finished and Bob Trout begins to quote from the Tribune editorial. He’s down to the last paragraph before someone hands him a strip of teletype paper with editorial com- ment from the Daily News. That’s all he has. There are still eleven minutes to go. Then things really begin to happen. A phone rings. It’s London. From three machines come quotations from editorials the nation over. There are two or three men in shirt-sleeves read- ing and cutting. Now they’re all given to Bob Trout. He glances at the clock and begins to speak a little faster. Still eight minutes left and the stuff is rolling in. Every one’s hurrying but there’s no excitement .. . Two minutes left and he’s still reading. Nothing yet from the New York Times. But here’s a galley proof now. No time for cut- ting. Bob Trout takes it, reads and cuts as he goes along. But he’s misjudged his time. He’s read the last sentence and there are still 25 seconds to go. Someone hands him a small scrap of paper with prove invaluable. All those responsible for making possible such something written in pencil. It’s an A. P. dispatch on the latest training are to be congratulated. They have made a contribution to the far-flung defense program undertaken by our government. Give Those Who Want To Study A Chance “Tf there had been more silence in my dormitory, I could have made better grades.” Such is the expression that goes the rounds every quarter at East Carolina Teachers College. There never can ean be complete silence in the dormitories except during vacation period. Encouraging over a thousand girls to keep quiet at night would be something short of a miracle. For those who are troubled with alleged noise-makers, the only logical solution to their prob- lem is to arrange their study periods at a time when their com- panions on the same floor are following pursuits elsewhere. When you are disturbed, just ask the source of the disturbance to stem his activities. If you are polite in your rqeuest it will work nine bombin of London. He reads it. The announcer takes the eight- second closing in five. Then they all sit there without saying a word watching the second hand on the clock. They’re all smiling. The president had finished speaking one hour and 21 mintes before, and they had made a round-up of editorial opinion not only at home but abroad. When the second hand hits 12 they’re off the air. They congratu- late each other and shake hands. Then they come out of the studio to look over the latest dis- patches on the teletype machines. There’s a five-minute news sum- mary in a half-hour. : Maybe every time you hear a news broadcast these days you dial another station because you're fed up.

A bands, with pleated outgrowth of the draped pug- gree. Watch for the two-tone hat, an innovation for sports and country wear. The whole brim, or in many cases, the under side of the brim only, is made of a contrasting color, and the ef- fect gained by this use of color is very sporty and is going over already at cruise and sports resorts. Brim edges, too, have ,a dif- ferent touch this spring. The plain welt edge continues in vogue, but the new contrasting felt binding, and the gabardine binding are receiving a great deal of attention. Another novelty is lacing, or saddle stitching, found on sports and casual types, particularly the suede-finished felts.
