Representing the students with whom Mr. Tabor worked Vernon Keutemeyer gave & tribute, in which he expressed the true friendship and musicianship shown at all times by the late music department head. Miss Kathleen A. Plumb, member of the faculty of the Training School, also praised College the work of the former faculty member. Selections by the college band, conducted by R. W.

Masquerade Ball Given By Juniors Carrying out the theme of Halloween, the Junior-Fresh- man masquerade ball proved to be one of the most entertaining dances the campus has seen in years, according to those stu- dents attending. Dressed in various costumes, the masked students presented a colorful picture. Highlighting the evening’s ac- tivities was the figure in which the freshman class were pre- sented. Participating also in this feature was the junior class and the chairmen and members of the dance committees. A grand march followed in which everyone took part.

We are very grateful for all the help you are giving us in this struggle, and we are all eagerly looking forward to the day when the war will be over.”’ Such is the opinion of a British boy as ex- pressed in a letter which was received in Greenville on the morning after Mrs. Edward R. Murrow had expressed the same sentiment as a representative of the British people. On Wednesday, October 22, Mrs. Morrow, the British repre- sentative for the American or- ganization of Bundles for Bri- tain, appeared before a large audience in Austin Auditorium under the auspices of the local unit of Bundles for Brtiain. “That the work of this organi- zation is filling a great need in a war-torn country” was the theme of Mrs. Murrow’s ad- dress. The articles from Amer- ica are received by the English with great delight, Mrs. Mur- row states. The English people are learning great deal about the United States, its cities and its towns, since each “bundle” con- tains a tag telling from which unit it came.

The Poe Society would kindly hug Bill Couneil’s neck I’m sure, if they thought he wouldn’t run. He was such a big help with their float that they don’t know how to thank him. Bill lspent the whole morning decorating, and then put on a bath robe (no. he didn’t take a bath, however) and took the part of one of the characters on the float. Bill is a member of the freshman class and hails from Durham way. Oh, boy, “my home town.” Frances Phelps and Dopey Winesette did their part for the \same float. Frances was a co-chairman, and did a large part of |decorating. She did not ride on the float, but you saw her strutting |with the band, no doubt. Don’t we, B. M.? Oh, yeah, I nearly for- | got. Dopey drove that little pick-up. In case you hear of a vacancy \for a truck driver, let her know. She has had plenty of experi- jence. (Now boys, I mean driving the truck!) Homecoming seems like a thing of the past now, but I do remember that Rudy Walters loan his car to the Emerson’s and Ralph Tucker’s went to pretty little Harriet Marshburn’s organi- zation. Fine cooperation I wauld call it. Don’t you? In case you see “hep-cat” Maddrey limping around the cam- pus, you might inquire how her hip is getting. Ellen had a very {marrow escape when at glee club practice onc night last week she |met with an accident. She fell over the foot lights on the stage of Austin and to the floor which is quite a drop. Several brusies Dean Tabor It is with the utmost respect and appreciation that the Col- lege accepts the oi] painting of the late Dean Tabor, whose memory lives as strongly on this campus as it would had he been with us only yesterday. His name stands for excellence and great- ness in his field, and also to think of him is to admire again the outstanding qualities that branded him a kind and understand- ing individual in the profession that calls so loudly for such characteristics—the teaching profession. Dean Tabor was_ not only a good t her: he was a good friend. He always had a kind word for the student, and his association with the students he taught certainly inspired those students to a plane that would make any teacher proud. Mr. Tabor, through his energetic and ambitious self, completely revised the music setup at the college and led the erstwhile dormant music department from the shadows of unimportance to the shining path of recognition. He accomplished all of this in the very few years that he was head of his department, and his fine work started the E. C. T. C. music department on the road of achievement. Since his death, Mr. Dittmer, who gained valuable experience by being fortunate enough to work under such a leader as Mr. Tabor, has carried on the work of his predecessor in such a way that Mr. Tabor’s efforts were not in vain. The present music department is rapid- ly expanding and will undoubtedly rank with the majority of col- leges in the state in the near future. To the family of Mr. Tabor, we say “thank you” from the bottom of our hearts. The painting will take a place of promin- ence among our pictures, and the very presence of his likeness | in our halls of learning will be as a guiding star of accomplish- ment for those who knew him and those who will learn of him. | Pugnacious Dancers Social activities are considered a vital part of any students’ college life if they are the kind of activities that are beneficial from the standpoint of health, relaxation, and entertainment. Dancing is considered such an activity on this campus and so we are given that privilege, as long as it is beneficial to our social needs. However when dancing becomes a physical education course | in boxing minus a friendly attitude, it no longer holds its status | as a beneficial social activity. Saturday night at the Junior-Freshman dance, things were suddenly changed from a dancing good time to a boxing match. The contestants were a student and a former graduate who were both adept at the manly art of self defense and had they both been sober, in the ring, and properly refereed, perhaps the fight would have been very interesting. But fighting at a college dance with many guests to witness the skirmish doesn’t seem quite right to us. To begin with, it was rude and impolite both to the hosts and to the guests—or maybe we skipped that passage of Emily Posts that says fighting is perfectly permissible and in excellent taste when one is a guest at a dance. And then too, we’re very sure that the outsiders who attended will think so much more of East Carolina because it allows fighting at college dances. Perhaps you say there was just cause to fight. Well, maybe 30, but the dance flcor isn’t usually considered the place to dis- play one’s pugnacious art. If you have to fight, why pick the dance floor for it? If the students of East Carolina Teachers College enjoy the and some sore muscles seem to be the worse of what could have j been a very serious accident. Sure hope she is soon able to “jive” jsome more. This might be a warning to others that the stage {is a dangerous place. | This column wasn’t intended to a Thank You affair but it |seems that students around the campus have been doing so many | things to be thanked for that this issue has turned out that way. iBen Miller is another who has been generous with his car. At |the last minute last Friday he saved the day for some of us YDC |members by taking his car, when we needed one so badly. But |Ben said it was worth it Three times. | This week has meant a lot to some of us, but I guess as much to one of our ole friends as anybody else. Bob Young should be as glad to get back as we are to have him. We sure missed him and it seems good to see that smiling face again. Bob always does have a smile, sometimes to accompany a wise crack, and others |just because he is good natured. Frankly I’m getting sleepy, so I won’t rack my brain (no remarks) until next issue. Sure would like to hear from you | readers as to how you like (?) this column. If you don’t; say so.

But you can drop a card, or note in the Teco Echo box if have something you would like to have put in about a friend. And Suggestions, PLEASE. Till hens... | Country Goes To Towa! by Rosalie Brown Last Friday morning two car loads of enthusiastic Young | Democrats left dear old ECTC for points North. Meaning, of ‘course, Raleigh to attend the Legislature. Well, frankly, I didn’t | know exactly what to expect, so I couldn’t have been disappointed. | After what seemed to have been days of traveling we reach- led our destination. Parting at the Capitol to find places more ‘comfortable than park benches on which to sleep (in case we couldn’t find anything else to do) we said we would meet in a half hour to go get something to eat. Everybody found a place to hang his clothes, or at least we thought they had, and we were back in front of the Capitol at the designated time. Having over-looked the slight fact that Capi- tol has four fronts, we waited at one front until hunger over- came us and we staggered forth to the nearest odor of food. Upon returning to the Capitol just in time to get to the first meeting, Ben and I got lost from all the others. We entered the Capitol and climbed the stairs to the House and Senate. To my great surprise and dismay (?) I beheld a hall full of boys, all shape, sizes and colors. The start seemed well enough, but alas... there were other hopeful females on the scene. After receiving a tag, that labeled you as to your name, school, and where you would be, we went to a “pep” meeting. There was really no pep there. Wake Forest had all the elections sewed up, and everything went off with little thunder. I saw Marjorie talking with some- thing that looked like a cross between a football hero, and a Greek god. It turned out to be the newly elected speaker of the House. Davis informed me that she had had her eye on him since last vear. And did I blame her? I did Not! Our group split up to go privilege of having dances, they should not abuse it by staging brawls at their dances. It’s up to the student body to see that the privilege is not lost. And the best way we know to keep that privilege is to give it only to those who will conform to the rules. Probably nothing will be done about removing the dancing privileges from the student body this time, but the administra- tion might not overlook another incident like that of Saturday night, for it casts a bad light on the college. The students should protect their privileges. Just because a few persons refuse to cooperate, should the students tolerate it and lose their own privileges and lower their college in the eyes of the public? Well, they are going to do just that if they continue to give social privileges to those who don’t deserve them. Spirit vs. Stubbornness A deplorable and complicated situation has recently been uncovered on our campus, and it presents a most complex prob- lem—one that can be remedied easily if certain pedagogues will make a desperate effort to be just a little more lenient and broad- minded, or it can be ignored and stored up as just another failure for the interest of school spirit. There are never over three occasions when athletic events, namely, football games, would tend to conflict with classes dur- ing the fall. In fact, only twice this fall have there been games on Friday afternoon. School spirit seems big and important enough to warrant the letting out of classes on these two days. Constant clamors have been heard from various and sundry head- quarters concerning the issue “School Spirit”. Let us suppose that a big majority of the students decide to attend a home game for their first time. Then they learn that their beloved teacher decidedly will not let the students attend the game, but they must come on to class and try to study, their minds wandering out to the football field and making studying impossible. It just doesn’t add up. If there is going to be an increasing demand for better school spirit, there are going to be necessitated inconveniences and sacrifices for everyone, including the teachers. If not, school spirit will just have to keep the back seat it now possesses. Let’s give it some thought, and try to work together in mak- ing necessary allowances both in and out of classes in trying to bolster our school spirit. It’s school spirit vs. stubbornness, and we are pulling for a victory for the spirit! to the different assemblies. Ruby Grant, Mildred Beverly and Janie Eakes went to the Senate. There it is reported that they really did things true to E. C. T. C. form. (Cornering the cutest boys, and doing a good job of talking). i Slater, Miller. Doris Brock, Cordell, Davis and I remained in the House and kept the “Home fires burning.” Hours and Hours passed while hot debates took place on such bills as the impeachment of Senator Reynolds, Neutrality, Short and Long term Foreign Policys. About six o’clock we adjourned to go to a banquet. Hunger Was again over taking me and the thoughts of a banquet was wonderful, UNTIL . . I had to pick meal time to get lost. With a State boy as my guide I thought I was sure to get there on time. We rode blocks one way to discover the church was in the other direction. We rode blocks back to have the bus turn off before we got there. In the end we came upon the scene of departing delegates, contently fed, and empty plates. Morning session began once more. Much of the pep, vim, and heated enthusiasm of the day before was lacking so early in the morning. But during dull moments when one body was waiting on the decision of the other gag questions and statements were brought up: In the house one of these consisted of a young man rising from the floor and asked a question in reference to a state- ment the night before about the teachers not needing a salary that they could buy mink coats, convertibles, and go to Florida with. The boy asked, “‘ What I want to know is why you can’t send all these good looking teachers, dressed in mink, riding in convert- ibles on down to Florida? I live there.” Over in the Senate it was quite a different story. A member to whom Ruby had very innocently given her name, address, and telephone no. rose and before the entire Senate that he had a point of qualification. Thus Ruby’s personnel was exposed with 200 hundred boys with pencils in hand to make a note. Ruby I hope they don’t all call at the same time. All Merle and Ben have to say is, “Aren’t there any con- ventions to be held at a girl’s school?” P. S. We forget to men- tion that these two went to the place where they thought they had a room, and discovered someone had beat them to bed!

Quotable Quotes by Associated Collegiate Press “When most people think of democracy, almost invariably their first reaction is in terms of Jefferson’s dictum, ‘Life, Liber- ty. and the Pursuit of Happi- ness.’ ” Associated with it is the idea that our national constitu- tional Bill of Rights is the auto- matic guarantor enabling us to achieve the Jeffersonian ideal. This latter association, however, lis false; for positively there is nothing automatic about demo- leratic goals. Their achievement {is the by-product of social en- | ergy intelligently and persistent- ly applied. The accomplishments ;of democracy must turn out to {be more than a pictorial record |in reverse. To avoid such a sit- uation we in the Americas must be more interested in the real- ‘isms of democratic achievement than we are in uttering voluble tements about democratic |abstractions. The citadel of democracy is enlightenment, and there in lies an educational ;challenge: the schools of the |nation are under solemn obli- |gation to impress youth with ‘the gravity of the attack now being launched against the democratic way of life and to inculcate in them basic demo- cratic principles. America’s | school system must help today’s | youth re-evaluate democracy as |a mode of life.” Dwight D. W. | Davis, Assistant professor of | social science, Eastern Oregon | College of Education, objects to | superficial concepts of demo- cracy. | “We must not sacrifice the great heritage of knowledge and culture that has been handed down to us. The training of the mind and the heart present world is even more im- portant than any particular area of technical training. For unless our faith in ourselves, in our democratic policy, in our ideals, in the principles of tolerance and freedom, unless all those things can be main- tained, the battle is lost before it begins.” Pres. Winfred G. Leutner of Western Reserve university warns against sacri- ficing real values. Parade Of Opinion by Associated Collegiate Press That familiar picture of a gloomy, bewildered college youth is headed for the museum wall, if results of a survey of co-ed opinion at the University of Texas may be believed. The poll, questioning a repre- sentative group of 400 from dormitories, sorority houses, co- operatives, and campus offices employing students, showed Texas co-eds to be possessors of definite opinions on everything from politics to hair-ribbons. Careers are all right in their places, they say, but that place is immediately after graduation. More than half of the women students want a job the first year out of college, but, looking 10 years ahead, they’re prac- tically unanimous in voting for a home and family. Incidental- ly, that family will probably be one of from three to seven children. Statistics may show that the average American couple has only one child, but Texas girls choose three as the best number. YDC dance will be held Novem- | in the!

For the first time in 1941 the undefeated Teachers may enter this game as the underdog. The Pirates have rolled up decisive victories in four games this season, but all of those triumphs came in home games’ and against weaker teams than the one boasted by Erskine. Both teams carry impressive records into this game, and the Erskine gridders will have the advantage of playing on their home field. The Teachers, who left here early Thursday, will have the added handicap of a long and tiring bus ride just before the game. Coach John Christenbury’s proteges will be putting out their best to keep their victory string in tact. Erskine last week defeated the strong Geor- gia State Teachers 7-0.
