Under the “Slat Shed”

The wood structure that you see in the above picture is better known
to horticulturists as a “slat shed.” These slats protect a few young camellia
japonica plants from the sun. Altogether there are about four hundred of
‘hese camellia japonicas growing under this thirty-six by fifty-four shed.

Next fall Mr. Wright plans to replace much of the cheap shrubbery

hich is now growing around the main college buildings with one hundred
of these camellia japonica plants.

Other Plans for the Future

long the Tenth Street highway, which is the boundary of the back
rus, Mr. Wright plans to have a continuous hedge of eleagnus planted.

. completed this hedge will run for a half-mile along the highway.
\Jready under cultivation at the nursery are all the plants that will be

| around the yet-to-be-completed classroom building.

Boxwood in Wright Building

In the top picture just to the right of center you see a row of the fast-

cing variety of the boxwood plant. During the spring vacation sixteen
slants were taken from this row (below, left) and transplanted into the
boxes (below, right) by four of the Negroes who work on the campus.
These boxwood plants have now been placed in the foyer of the redecorated
Robert H. Wright Building.

“Lowly Male
Not So Lowly

Survey Shows

The 163 boys at E.C.T.C. this
term make up 15.09 per cent of the
entire enrollment. There have been
202 boys’ enrolled here this year.
Henry Oglesby was the first man to
receive a degree and the only one in
1932. Since then 66 others have fol-
lower suit. Last year’s graduates
numbered 23, slightly over 30 per
cent of the class, and about a third of
all men graduates.

At least two-thirds of the alumni
have remained in teaching. Included
among these are six principals. Four
have already received their M.A.
degrees at Peabody, and two others
are working toward theirs at the
same institution. Another foursome
is now doing graduate work at
E.C.T.C. Four more are studying
professions, two in medicine, one in
law, and one in dentistry. "

Men students play an important
part in the various organizations of
the college, having their own student
government, an honorary education-
al fraternity, a Y.M.C.A., and five
intercollegiate athletic teams. They
also participate with the girls in all
the campus clubs and societies. Men
are likewise eligible for class office
and can point with pride to two of
their number who are now class pres-
idents.

It is a matter of record.that the
second and third organizations on
the campus, the “Jarvis Debating
Society” and a baseball club, were

| started by boys, in the very first year

of the school, when only 19 boys were
in the student body. :
Athletics have as much or more to
do with publicizing a college than
any other item, and it is around men’s
sports. that the main interest is cen-

Freshman Class

To Entertain
Juniors At Prom

Juniors and Freshmen will,
“swing” into the rhythm of a gala
event tomorrow night when Rudy'|
Walters and his orchestra provide |
music for dancing feet at the annual
Freshman-dunior.

Vari-colored streamers attached |
to a May pole on the stage and to the |
balcony will provide a ceiling for
the dance floor. The bright colors and
the May pole, itself, are symbolic
of the gay and festive spirit which is
anticipated by the sister classes.

During intermission a figure will
be led by Vernon Keutemeyer, pres-
ident of the Freshman Class, and
Clifton Britton, president of the
Junior Class. Also participating in
this event will be the other officers
of the Junior and Freshman classes,
the presidents of the other classes
and of the campus organizations, and
the members of the committees.

Heading committees for the dance
are: James Whitfield, chairman of
the music committee; Sara Gorham,
chairman of the refreshment com-
mittee; Harriet Marshburn, head of
the invitation committee; and Kath-
leen Lewis, chairman of the decora-
tion committee.

Back to East Carolina Teachers |

College and all its friendly associa- ||
tions will come the classes of 1929, |:
the four year and the two year, as
special guests of the college. The).

work of these classes during the past |
ten years has been outstanding. The

| president of the A.B. class, Lilyan | |

Colson, has done very outstanding
work and for the past two years has
been teaching in the Mississippi Del-
ta State Teachers College in Cleve-
land, Mississippi.

Thirty-eight members of the A.B.
Class are now married. Others have
been successful teachers in this and
other states. To be recognized in this |
capacity along with others, is Wita
Bond, who has served in the Rocky
Mount City School system for a num-
ber of years. Rebecca Alexander has
been in Lucama for the past few
years. Aurora has Elizabeth Allen
as a member of its faculty. Annie
Estelle Green has been teaching in
Greenville. Sara Byrd Ogletree has
done some fine work in Bethel. For
a number of years Carrie Taylor
Smith has been in Roanoke Rapids.
Emily Smithwick, who is a member
of the Executive Board of the Alum-
nae Association, has been a member
of the Edenton School faculty for a
number of years. Clyde Stokes and
Vallis Summerel have been teaching
in Ayden. These are a few of the
many who have gone out and been
successful in the profession for which
they were trained during their col-
lege days on this campus.

One of the distinctions that this
class has is that one of their number
is the state president of the Alum-)

is Mrs. L. L. Stancill (Luella Lan-

Lanier Society during her Senior
year, and who now has one son and)

Alumnae. Chapters Report Successful Year;
Organizations Show Increase In Membership

The E.C.T.C. Alumnae Chapters

have reported a very successful year.
Through these chapters there has
been a constant growth and unity
among the alumnae of this college.
One graduate from here made this
remark, “By meeting regularly each
month we have kept in closer con-
tact with the alumnae here and with
the college. We have felt a real need
for more enthusiasm and college spir-
it among us. We believe that our
alumnae secretary is doing much to-
ward unifying our association, and
we hope that our chapter will be able
to do more next year toward making
possible an all-time secretary.

The Roanoke — Chapter has
held meeti month, which

e

‘Iter at each meeting. During the year

a

they sponsored a bowling totrnament
to raise money for the Alumnae As-
sociation. In the April meeting the
Alumnae Secretary, Miss Copeland,

gave a report of the alumnae activi-
ties of the year and Miss Ruth White
talked about the improvements that

are in progress on the campus. This

year this chapter has enrolled thirty-
five members with Miss Martha
Whitehurst serving as president,
Miss Katherine Reid as secretary,
and Miss Julia Farrior as reporter.
The Winterville Chapter of the
E.C.T.C. Alumnae Association was
organi in March, 1938, with
twenty-five members. At the end of

the first year this number had in-

creased to thirty-three. In February

Pitt County doctors. The group has

elected officers for next year as fol-
lows:, President, Mrs. Linwood
Worthington ; Vice President, Mary

Wardell Worthington.

The Rocky Mount Chapter has
had as its officers for this-year Mrs.
R. M. Taylor as President, Miss
Wita Bond as Vice President, Mrs.
F. R. Elmore, Secretary and Treas-
urer. The efforts of this chapter have
been very successful. During the year

Mr.
Sandburg presented to his audience
a great deal of interesting comment.

Speaking of the present crisis in

‘the universal truth that in spite of

the good and bad apparent in men,
there is always good in the bad and
bad in the good. “Manhood,” he said,
“ean not be divided into good and

Former Dean

Addresses YWCA

Mrs. Kate W. Beckwith, former
Dean of Women of East Carolina
Teachers College was guest speaker
at the Sunday evening Vesper Serv-
ice on April 23.

Mrs. Beckwith began her talk by
reading the nineteenth Psalm which
she said was one of her favorites.
“There are two characters who stand
out pronouncedly in the Bible who

ss

have been much help to me,” she said.
They were David in the Old Testa-
ment and Peter in the New Testa-
ment.

David had characteristics that she
herself possessed and would like to
overcome. One of these was just hu-
man weaknesses of the body, mind
and soul. David was always willing
to try again when stumped by some
difficulty.

Mrs. Beckwith compared her lack
of self-control, her lack of restraint
to that of Peter’s. She illustrated
this with a story of the lack of self-
control of a member of the law. She
compared also her fear of pain to
that of Peter’s. “I am glad the Lord
has given strength to us who are
afraid of physical pain,” she con-
tinued.

Peter wished not to be crucified
as his Christ, but bended his head
for he wanted to redeem himself for
being a coward.

“When I meet trials and troubles,
I am always strengthened by these
David,” she said. a8 ee

ajority were the comments in favor of the President’s |

lins College Sandspur summarized the position of the |

President in this fashion: “Roosevelt has taken a mo-|

attempting to force the hands of the dictators. Although

an attempt is better than for the most powerful nation on

pt a philosophy of futility toward a world war. Every protest

nuination by force will swell the tide of world opinion for peace.”

SOLUTION—Collegians in growing numbers are advocating strict neu-

trality as the only position for the government to assume in the present

orld situation. But they would temper neutrality with the application of

ic retaliation against the aggressor and totalitarian nations. How-

is as yet no meeting of the minds on this point, and only the

developments of the next few wecks will bring a unity of purpose and

action to the nation’s campuses. The degree of unity will depend on the
degree of danger in the recurring crises.

Here’s how the Dartmouth College Dartmouth stated its views on this
point: “The headlines scream at campuses just as they do at taxi-drivers,
and the least we can expect from campuses is that they realize they are
being fed with war propaganda, and that they think calmly, and sanely,
not react blindly, easily, catastrophically. Let’s decide on a program for
thinking. Let’s think calmly, without hysteria, without popping our eyes
out every time we hear a loud voice shouting that war is inevitable. That
kind of thinking is one of the things we go to college for.”

The editors of the Sewanee Purple of the University of the South have
a new solution: They are campaigning for the founding of an Anti-Sour-
puss League. Here’s what they think their new organization should do:

“The creature this League prepares to exterminate comes in many sizes
and flavors, but his essential features are the same. He was born with a
bad disposition, and has been looking ever since for some pretext to make
everyone else as uncomfortable as he. The age at which he becomes a con-
firmed Sourpuss may be early or late, depending upon whether early or
late he discovered the world’s obtuse lack of appreciation for his talents.
Even more important is his lack of a sense of humor, the light touch. The
motto of the club is a bit ungrammatical but real none the less;
‘I don’t hate nobody! The anti-Communists, anti-Fascists, anti-New

School Quarterly” which was issued
by the 1914 class, the honor class this
vear.

The main social events were the

alumni of Greenville in Fleming

Penthouse Programs Inaugurated

The penthouse presentation was
inaugurated on our campus at the
regular meeting of the Immanuel
Baptist Training Union, Saturday,
April 29. A few years ago at the
University of Washington, in Seattle,
the theater group originated the
method of play production in which
all the action takes place in the
center of the room, the audience com-
pletely surrounding the players. In
similar manner the training union
group under the direction of Vir-
ginia Weldon presented their pro-
gram, “Christ’s Minority in Japan.”
Sitting on grass rugs and sipping
tea in true Japanese fashion, a
group of Americans interviewed a
Japanese in her native habitat
while other members of the train-
ing union sat looking on.

Such presentations are to be weekly
features of this group. The public
is cordially invited to attend each

Saturday afternoon at 2:00 in room
123 Austin.

Massachusetts’ governor has en-
dorsed a move to close four of that
state’s nine teachers’ colleges.

dent union has opened a new music

There is a lot of noise out in the
theatre—the audience is leaving—
as a body. There is a considerable
rush to the nearest exit.

Voice from audience : Wait! Wom-
en and children first.

The second sailor spies a wisp of
smoke in the distance.

2nd Sailor: Help! Fire! Smoke!
Cannibals no doubt.

The dying sailor recuperates very
quickly and is out of sight in nothing
flat or less. The second sailor stealth-
ily stalks the fire, fearing the worst.
He hides behind a bush in hearing
distance of the fire.

Voice from fire: Well, Ill be

Have you seen the latest newly
styled silk dresses? The dresses are
dotted or flowered with matching
braid-bound cardigans, and_ the
dresses themselves are bound at the
neck and sleeves. They come in all
the new and charming shades from
the light blue to the popular yellows.
Some of the dresses have double
pockets; the upper pocket is some-
times placed squarely on top of
the lower one or it is placed slight-
ly to the right and about an inch
below the lower one.

When you go shopping look for
a silk print dress with a white pet-
ticoat bound at the hem with the
print.
new.

The new sleeves for cotton dress-
es are squared at the shoulder and
fall perfectly straight to the middle
of the upper arm. Hems are wider
too—by one to two inches.

Pique and more pique! You'll
find it everywhere and on every-
thing. It is used for blouses, sport
dresses, street -dresses,  boleros,
jackets, suits, evening gowns, eve-|
ning coats, and as trimming on silk |
dresses. Pique is smart, fresh and
young looking. Wear it tailored, |
and you can’t help but be “chic.” |

A dark dinner dress with a tight
little bodice, fairly full skirt, and a|
low square decolletage accented with |
either a white linen or lace Renais-
sance collar is very elegant and
beautiful.

Black and white, or blue and
white checked gingham is surpris-
ingly smart when tailored. It’s a
favorite with college girls. Very
popular too are the two piece cotton
dresses with tiny quilted jackets.
Tiny dots or thin strips come in
for their share too, in campus use.
There are so many colors and de-
signs to choose from this spring, that
you can’t help finding something
to suit your taste.

Bon amusement!

 

Banquet Held

“Maytime” was the theme of the
banquet sponsored by the Home
Economics 323 class Tuesday night
in the Science Building. The object
of the banquet was to give the class
practical experience in supervising
banquets which will come as part
of the program of Home Economics
teaching.

The eight members of the class
planned and served fifty people for
fifteen dollars. Mildred McDonald
served as toastmaster while Dr.
Meadows gave the address of the
evening, “Spring is Here.”

The June graduates of the depart-
ment were the guests while the
August graduates served the meal.
Faculty members were honored
guests.

DR. SLAY is still trying to find out
how Herbert Wilkerson is going to
make “dilute” water. Diluted water
is pretty weak stuff you know.

Student-On-The-Stand

Question : Do you think this college should have a debating team |
pete with other colleges?

Thornton Ryan, Freshman: Debaters would profit much from
mural debates because in all probability more debates could be
and more students would be drawn into active participation. Fr
standpoint of publicity, the inter-collegiate debates are desired

Yvonne Downing, Freshman: Yes, because it trains the studer
public speaking which is something we are weak in and gives the
a chance to see how they rank with other colleges.

Ethel Gaston, Junior: Yes, for the benefit of those who are inter
this would prove an asset. A debating team can be the means of

relations with other schools.

Mayme Davis, Junior: Yes, I think this eollege should have a de!
team in order to come in contact with other colleges and to gain 1
tion in literary work.

Joe Staton, Freshman: Only if enough interest and desire is s]
the students to warrant such a club.

Emmitt Sawyer, Junior:

J Yes, a good debating team is good ady
ment and good training.

with the group. From ning until
one each day these activities are in
progress.

Situated on the campus, in a part
of the Home Management House,
the school is easily accessible to
children, parents, and college stu-
dents connected with it.

Providing for a story hour, sing-
ing and listening to music, eating,
and resting, and for individual and
cooperative play, the school pre-
sents opportunity for much good
work in playground supervision ad-
vantageous to both student and
child.

Students who are members of the
Child Guidanee Class plan the
meals, do the buying, and prepare the
lunch in the school.

Education and Psychology classes
of the college observe the learning
and behavior of the pre-school child
in this group as contrasted with that

Centennial Cele-
bration To BeHeld

Observation of the celebration of
the centenial of teachers colleges
will be held here at East Carolina
Teachers College in the near future.
The commemoration is being spon-
sored by the American Association
of Teachers Colleges which met in
Cleveland, Ohio, this spring.

The State Teachers College at
Lexington, Mass., the first teachers
college to be established in the
United States, was founded on hun-
dred years ago, on July 3, 1839.
Cyrus Peirce was the first president
of the college. The celebration is
for the observation of the hundred
years of teachers colleges since then.

Roscoe L. West of the State Teach-
ers College at Trenton, N. J., is
serving as chairman of the national
committee for the celebration of the
century of public teachers education.

Miss Emma Hooper is serving as
chairman of the local committee here.

THE TECO ECHO

Physical Ed.
And Music —
Are Added

This year, for the first time, it
has been possible for students here
to major in Musie and Physical
Education. Also, Home Economics,
as a major separate from Home
Eeonomies and Science, has been
established.

In giving students an opportunity
to develop their musical talents to
their own advantage, the adminis-
tration has increased the assets of
the college to the extent or a newly-
organized orchestra and band. Prog-
ress in these two musical groups has
been steady.

Making its initial appearance on
the night of the Senior Play, the
orchestra, under the direction of Mr.
Dittmer, has made rapid progress
as was shown recently when it per-
formed prior to Paul Green’s speech
here. This new musical organiza-
tion promises distinction to the col-
lege, at the same time presenting the
participants with the opportunity of
developing their musical talents to
a great enough degree to provide
them the possibility of entering a
teaching career in this field of en-
deavor.

Dressed in regal purple and gold,
the band, which is also an outgrowth
of the new music program, has been
displayed to good advantage on sev-
eral occasions. Appearing for the
first time at the ECTC-Campbell
football game, the college band has
increased its ability and added to
its repertoire since this occasion; and
at the last exhibition on High School
Day showed considerable improve-
ment over former performances.

Physical Education has _ been
recognized as an important factor
in the college curriculum for some
time, but only this year has it come
into significance as a separate course
of study.
courses in this field were restricted
almost wholly to elementary majors.
It is now recognized as of great
enough importance to warrant be-
coming a major field. Having only
recently come into its own, the field
is one which holds great possibili-
ties.

Home Economies as a lone major
is of recent origin, having been
separated from the combination
Home Economics and Science just

sidered one of great possibilities.

Good In Report

“Good,” the second-class honor
rating award of the Associated Col-
legiate Press critical service, has
been given the 19388-1939 volume of
the Teco Ecno.

With 1,000 as a total score, the bi-
weekly publication won 600 points.
Under the heading “news values and
sources” 165 of a possible 250 points
were scored. One hundred and fifty
out of 280 were awarded for “news
writing and editing.” The “head-
lines, typography and make-up” rat-
ed 145 of the 250 points, and “de-
partment pages and special features”
mustered 140 of the 220 points.

Sports editor Jack Daniels’ de-
partment rated “Excellent” as did
the “coverage, balance and vitality”
under the grouping “news values and
sources.”

One of the constructive criticisms
cautioned against subjecting readers
to “too many long stories.” Another
suggested a more harmonizing style
of type to go with the flush-left head-
lines and streamlined make-up which
was introduced this year.

Evaluation was made only on the
first seven issues of the Teco Ecno
under the editorship of Billy Dan-
iels and the present staff. This second
class rating was also made by last
year’s volume under Ray Pruette.

Sponsored by the University of
Minnesota School of Journalism, the
Associated Collegiate Press is a part
of the National Scholastic Press As-
sociation which offers this critical
service to high school and college
newspapers each year.

Carolina Education Association Con-

have been Frances Edgerton for the
first year and Rebecca Nicholson for |
the past two years. Some of the out-|
standing activities engaged in by
the members are as follows:

One group sponsored a booth for
the A.C.E. publications at the North

vention held here at the college. The |
purposes of this were to distribute
the A.C.E. materials and to increase |
the funds of this organization.

Assistance has been given the Pitt |
County Branch by several members |
in executing various plans such
as assisting at dinner meetings and}
planning place cards.

In honor of its distinguished guest
Mrs. McClelland Mayforth, editor
of Childhood Education, the organi- |
zation entertained at tea in the par-|
lors of Fleming Hall.

One of the services rendered by a
group under the leadership of Julia
Van Landingham has been the story
hour at the Training School. This
hour on Monday and Tuesday was
for the benefit of those children
waiting for the bus and others who
were interested.

A contribution was made to help
purchase glasses for Training School
children who need them but were
unable to have them without aid.

To aid these prospective teachers
in diagnosing and treating common
diseases found in young children Dr.
Haar, a child specialist, spoke very
informingly along this line at one
meeting.

The association reached one of its
aims for the past year when it sent
representatives to.the National Con-
vention in Atlanta. Those attending
were Mary Lou Butner, Edith Mar-
tin, Neta Lee Townsend, Rebecca
Nicholson, and Miss Dora Coates and
Miss Annie C. Newell. One of the
values received by the representa-
tives was the feeling that they be-
longed to such a large professional
organization.

The members of this organization
have also enjoyed several social
meetings. The students with several
faculty members cooked supper in
the “Y” hut one night and breakfast
in Dr. Adams’ backyard one morn-
ing.

This organization is not only affil-

iated with the National Association

Take Revenge

On Trojans

Green Wins .
In Gruelling Match

The Pirates’ tennis team gained
revenge last Monday for a recent de-
feat at Louisburg by trimming the
Trojans in a return match here by a

514-3 % seore.

Charlie Green of the Corsairs de-
faeted Willing of Louisburg in the
feature match which lasted 21%
hours. Green won the first set easily
at 6-1, but Willing came back strong
to take a marathon second set by a
10-8 score. After a brief rest the boys
went at it again, and Green emerged
victorious in the third set largely
on the strength of his net-play.

Leo Burks took a_ beautifully
played No. 1 match from Louis-

Bedtime Story

.. Well done.

pon a time, there was a very fine little baseball player at a college |
(TC, whose name was Cinder-Earl-a. This athlete very fortu-
ived an offer from a “pro” team to play ball for them. Now this
boy was elated because he needed the money, although it did
leaving his college team for the last month of the season. (You)
e college hadn’t given the little boy any financial help through

free passes granted by Lynch and
Darrington, Louisburg hurlers, to
score three runs in the first stanza
to forge into the lead and add an-
other in the seventh.

Statistics of the game indicate it
was one of those athletic freaks. The
Trojans outhit the Teachers six safe
blows to three and had a perfect

go play ball for the “pros,” when out of a blue sky appeared

Pirates was found in Martin’s su-

were trailing 6 to 5 as they came to
bat in the first half of the ninth in-

up three runs and forge into the lead.
The Louisburgians threatened seri-
ously in their portion of the last
stanza, pushed one run across the
plate, and came within a single mark-
er of tying the score. Phillips tight-
ened down with men on base, how-
ever, to nip the rally without further
damage.

Earl Smith led the Pirates’ attack
with three hits for five times at bat.
Shelton, Mayo, and Hinton con-
tributed two hits each to the offensive
to figure in the victory.

1939 Graduate
Coaches Sports

Men-students at E.C.T.C. have
found it very worth while to partici-
pate in as well as make a study of
the various sports, because there is
a demand in most schools for men
teachers who can coach athletics as

well as teach the regular courses of
study.

Among the thirteen men gradu-

ates of last year now engaged in
teaching may be found six who coach
athletics at their respective schools.
The list of men teaching and coach-
ing, and their various locations, are:

Joe Braxton—Rock Ridge, Wil-

Women To Hold
Track Meet

When interviewed recently by the
Trco Ecuo’s W.A.A. reporter, Lu-
cille Norton, head of women’s ath-
letics, announced that girls’ track
would make its debut at East Caro-
lina tomorrow, May 6, with the run-
ning off of eight track and field
events. The events include: 50 yard
dash, 75 yard dash, running broad
jump, standing broad jump, high
jump, hop-step-and-jump, baseball
throw, and basketball throw. A large
number of campus athletes are ex-
pected to participate.

Coach Norton then gave a general
discussion of the girls’ yearly record
and the future of women’s athletics.

“Much progress,” said Miss Nor-
ton, “has been made in girl sports
for the past few years. The program
has been enlarged and now includes
many new activities. Though it is
yet not complete, it is by far the
best all-around program in girl
sports ever conducted on this campus.

“Intramural tournaments are out-
standing occurrences for girls who

| wish to participate in some form of

sport. Every girl is made eligible
for an intramural tournament by
signing up as a participant.

“This is the first year that East
Carolina Teachers College has ever
had a volleyball team. There were
two interscholastie volleyball games
in which E.C.T.C. split with Black-
stone.

“Basketball is still the winter’s
most outstanding girls’ sport. This
year we won the five interscholastic
games played.

“For the first time in the history
of the college, field hockey was a

school sport. Class instruction was

given in field hockey last term.
“Softball and tennis head the list
in spring sports on this campus.
More girls than ever before went
out for soft ball this spring.

Racket Wielders
Lose Close One

Louisburg College edged a 5-4 win
over the Pirate netters on the Tro-
jans’ home courts. The meet was
marked by a number of closely played
matches.

Charles Harris’ victory over
Woodard was the feature singles
match of the afternoon. Harris ran
out the first set 6-1 and he held a
5-1 lead in second when the Trojan
player rallied tremendously to pull
out the set 7-5. Harris then settled
down to take the third set 6-3.

The No. 1 singles saw Leo Burks,
little leader of the Bucs, win over
Bell in straight sets. The first set
was an easy victory 6-1 for Burks,
but Bell fought back courageously,
making a dogfight of the second set
which finally went to Burks at 8-6.

Douglas “Ruffin” Glover defeated
Luis, the Trojans’ Cuban star, in the
No. 2 Singles. Luis showed a hard
and oftentimes brilliant attack, but
Glover was too steady for him. Three
of Louisburg’s five victories were
extra-set affairs. These were the No.
6 singles and the No. 2 and 3 doubles.

Summary:

Louisburg—ECTC

No. 1, Bell lost to Burks 1-6, 6-8.

No. 2, Luis lost to Glover 2-6, 3-6.
