Or are you one of these people who have no spare time during the last two weeks of school? However, the summer will be here soon. A majority of you who do not return to summer school will have much time that can be called free. What will you do with it? Will you make it mean something that you can value afterwards, or will it be wasted? What literature will you read? To what music will you listen? What form of recreation will you chose for your physical exercise? Start thinking about these things now and make this summer en all round wholesome one that will add to you physically, mentally, and spiritually. Full Time Tennis Court Laborers Needed In the last issue of TECT ECHO we dis- cussed the poor condition of our tennis courts and asked the administrative officer res- ponsible for their upkeep to help us get them in good playing condition. Since then, re- presentatives of the Men’s Athletic Associa- tion twice have talked the matter over with the treasurer and the head of instruction in the physical education department. Judg- ing from these conversations, it seems that progress on the courts may be made in the immediate future, although as yet little or no improvement is noticeable. The treasurer has asked the superinten- dent of buildings and grounds to be on the look-out for a good laborer to work on the courts full time, to give them the attention they need. In case such a laborer cannot be tound, he proposes to continue the present student-work system. (Students wanting to work at this outdoor job for forty-four cents per hour should see him.)

Y., Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, San Fran- cisco. he treasurer believes that the ation department, has the tech- nical knowledge, should supervise, while the head physical education instructor believes that such supervision should belong to the superintendent of building and grounds, since the courts actually are outdoor class- rooms. He says that with the extremely heavy teaching load his department carries, it would be very difficult to find time to super- vise tennis court work. So, fellow-students, that is the situation which exists today—divided responsibility and lack of policy. We sincerely hope that within a very few days definite responsibi- lity for FE. C. C. tennis court upkeep will be placed and a definite policy for such will be formulated. Let us all talk and work to- ward that goal, because the rest of this spring, this summer, next fall, we will need to be on those courts—playing and having fun. Keep With The Bell Do your teachers start classes five min- utes before the bebll just because you happen to be a little early? Do they teach on into the next period when the last bell rings? When you get to your next class does the teacher come in five minutes late to find his class about ready to walk out? Do you sneak into class five minutes late yourself? When you are kept overtime in Austin does your Com- merce teacher give you heck because you are late? Do you have to go to the “Y” store for a coke between every class and make a dash for Dr. Posey’s or Mr. Hollar’s room after the last bell rings? Perhaps you can answer one or more tions with “yes. Some can say “yeah man” to all of them about different teachers and themselves. Students and teachers make it very annoying for others by doing these things. Why can’t they all go by the bells and stop all this confusion? Set your watch with the bells which are always different from E. S. T. and be on time to class. Anohter thing: why cut classes just to It is bad enough to cut when you go home on week-ends. This will eventually come to nothing but a weak-end if you don’t mind. Dr. Toll has a good policy when he of these que ] slee says, “This is not the British House of Parl ament, Which recesses at noon on Friday, but school here is in session from Monday morn- ing at eig Saturday noon.” Get your money and times worth by be- ing on class and being on time; insist upon your teachers doing the same and letting you leave class when the bell rings instead of teaching on with ‘ . one other thing before you run...” or“... the assignment for next time is, tec.” More Room at Our Dances ECTC has a comparatively small gym- Nasium, especially when it is used for formal dances with the number of people it has to accomodate. The surrounded by columns, back of which there is usually one or two rows of seats. There is enough room between the columns and the seats for line to form, if it would, rather than have half the dancing space taken up by two hundred girls standing in the middle of the floor. If anyone has been to a dance in the Wright Building they have seen many dis- advantages of the large group of girls who stand on the dance floor. In the first place, if a man wants to dance and doesn’t have a partner, he does not want to walk all the way out in the center of the floor to pick one. Of course the general procedure is for the girls to ask for dances and break, but this is no excuse for gather- ing in the middle of the floor. They can break just as well from the side although they may, it is true, see more possibilities of desirable partners if they are in the center of the danc- ing. It is also true that, in the past, the short- age of men has made for a greater number of girls picking from a small number of men; but now, since there are more men at the dances to choose from, it shouldn’t be as hard to find suitable partners. There has been considerable comment against the tendency of the stag line to form in the center, from the students, the faculty, and the staff of the college. The chaperons seem to be the main objectors, and seem to think that everyone would enjoy the dances more if the dancing space was not so crowd- ed. floor space i r€ ast For the last two dances of this quarter, if the girls would cooperate in keeping the floor cleared for dancers, they would see which method is best. The Vet Club and the Varsity Club dances probably will not suffer in this respect as much as other dances but these clubs probably would appreciate stu- dent thoughtfulness. It’s The System That’s Wrong A college girl ducks behind a garbage can in a dark alley as a council member makes her rounds looking for those desperate women who... have left the drab monotony of a man-short campus for a night of carous- ing—cokes and movies in the nearby up- town district. The dean has got wind of the rumor that several score of the braver souls have surreptitiously absented themselves from her protective wing, and she is great- THE TECO ECHO perturbed. “Blind stupid girls. I’ll have to show them who cracks the whip around here. Council members, comb the entire city and bring me back NAMES, NAMES! Hurry now!” So council members are posted at every dormitory door left unlocked, at every gate, to check on the wayward girls as they r gle in from their gay night of coke-drink- ing and pop-corn-eating. Roving members scour the streets of this small Idaho town. Name-takers station themselves in the lob- bies of both the town’s theatres. Even the peace-loving girls in Harry’s Hamburger House are minutely checked as to name, escort, place found, and time of evening. The dean is firmly ensconced in her swivel chair, pad and pencil in hand, waiting for the reports to come in. Drama unfolds while half the world sleeps. It seems that the poor lass who has not cut fifteen minutes from her leisure time to write out a narrative description of her pro- posed evening has about as much chance as a snowball in Sahara. The harried girl who momentarily escaped by ducking behind the garbage can does not necessarily blame the council members; she knows that the y are only tools of an outmoded system. She knows that it is the SYSTEM that is wrong. Thru-Tha Knothole by Garlan Bailey Proving that they never quit working ror those things that are right and good, the VETERANS CLUB on the campus is front- ing a move to raise money for athletic schol- arships. First feature is a dance coming off tomorrow night. The boys are not expecting or even asking that everyone do that which they are not willing to do—each veteran is buying his individual ticket and is paying the same amount for the admission as the other students are asked to pay. YOU, as students, as the faculty, as officers of our college s hould feel obligated to buy a ticket to th dance even if you know that you cannot attend the dance. This money is not to be used by the Veterans, but it is to go to some worthy per- son who could not otherwise attend our school, one who will bring prestige to our college in helping to raise the athletic standards of our intercollegiate teams. Our college and the particular students are the only ones who will derive direct benefit 1rom the scholarship. The rest of us will get our reward from self- satisfaction of knowing that we have had a hand in doing something good for someone and for our college. The VETE ‘S are giving valuable energy, time and money. BUY A VETERANS DANCE TICKET NOW, won't you? * > * * * ADVICE ON TERM PAPERS So you still have a term paper to write and the quarter is coming to a close so quick- ly ... I worte one myself last fall and I feel qualified to answer a few of the more im- portant questio that might be bothering you. Other answers may be had for the ask- ing. Q. How long should the term paper be? A. No longer than the person that you copy. Q. Should I go to the library for my in- formation? A. Why mix the professor up with all of that knowledge. Q. Should the paper be typewritten? A. Absolutely not. The professor could read it then and think of the mispelled words that he might find. Q. Should the paper be handed in on time? A. No. Its never read anyway, so make the teacher earn part of that overpaid salary by adding as much misery as possible. *. * * * * I understand that those who attended the dance last Saturday night had plenty of dancing space. They enjoyed themselves too if they liked dancing all night with their in- dividual date. My personal opinion is that this type of dance is OK if you are desperately in love and so jealous that you would not have anyone else dance with your date through the evening. I do not think that the ECTC dances are meant to be conducted in this man- ner since everyone chips in on the expenses. A particular class dance does not mean that all from the other classes are excluded, neither does it mean that everyone must have a date to attend. Those who allowed such rumors to circulate errored, and should have corrected this before everyone decided upon other plans for the weekend. In the futur may we be more discreet in our plan- ning. * * * = . Editorials appeared in the last issue of the Teco Echo in regards to the dirty fish pool and the condition of the tennis courts. Thanks to Mr. Duncan, action was taken im- mediately and several of us used some of our time last Thursday watching the men give the fish their needed bath. The pool, again, : Student Spotli ght Her vivacity, her popularty, and her numerous extra-Curricular activities have made Freda Caudell the natural choice for this issue’s spotlight. Freda, the “gal” with the laughing eyes and sparkling personality hails from Buies Creek, N. C. She came to E. C. T. C., charm and all, last year as a transfer from her home- town college, Campbell. While at Campbell she taught a class in physical education and marching and play- ed intramural sports. She was also in the Glee Club and an attendant in the May Day Festivities. Since she has been at E. C. T. C. she has been an associate editor of the Teco Echo, assistant sports editor for the W. A. A., chairman of the May Day program and presi- dent of the Emerson Society. As to likes and dislikes Freda says, “I like hamberger and turnip greens and lots of french fries.” She also likes lots of sweet music and dancing. Her favorites in the line of music are “I’ll See You Again” and “Ave Maria.” She hates to wait for people, but she says that she likes everybody. We almost forgot to tell-you that Freda is a physical education and history major, therefore, she adds swimming, playing tennis, und basketball, bowling and horse back riding to the list of things that she just When ask about her love life } that all plans along that line after another year of college (but keep her eye on the mail bi she wants to just get a little “ and have a good time.

A ae ieee Finally, after undue delay, ECTC has « president. I know that we all are very anx- ious to meet the gentleman, but let us do more then just accept him. Let us cooperate with our new Prexy, and give him what we na- turally will expect, our best. No more can be asked, no more can be given. If we will do this, East Carolina Teachers College will be on its way to new heights among the col- leges of America. oes ae Must some one become injured on back campus before something is done about the speed way immediately behind the dormi- tories. Realizing fully the need for a passage way for automobiles between 5th and 8th streets I think it would be much safer if signs were put up directing the through traffic across campus via of the New Class- room Building. It might be a good idea to post speed signs at each entrance onto the campus, limiting the automobiles to a slow speed. Time and time again, you hear the schreeching of brakes and the skidding of tires when some motorist has barely missed some student. The stuednt is not to blame entirely because it is a common practice to walk in the street on back campus. It should be up to the drivers of the cars to observe such a speed that the lives and limbs of our students would not be endangered. To The Editor Dear Editor: In a news article on the Veterans’ bar- becue which appeared in the last issue of the Teco Echo, credit for preparing the dinner was given to the dining hall staff. The din- ing staff did a good job in serving the din- ner but all credit for actually preparing the barbecue goes to “Chief” Williams, who has always cooked for such occasions. “Chief” spent seventeen hours at the barbecue pit and should have been given credit for his work in the news article. Since he didn’t get this recognition, I wish to take this opportunity to let him know we enjoyed it and appreciate his part in the preparation of the dinner. “Chief” is one person on this campus who does a lot of things to help the school and never gets any praise or credit. We all know that he does them and take it for grant- ed that he will look after things such as lock- ing buildings, turning out lights or any- thing else he sees that should be done while we sleep. Thanks “Chief” Jack Johnson Editor: My appologies for being neg- lectful in this matter, and my appreciation to Jack for letting it be known.
