The Bucs travel to Atlantic Chris- ian tomorrow night to play the last regular season game, and if you plan to make the trip we advise you to leave early to assure yourself of getting a seat.

If funds are available, we plan to publish one more six-page issue before the end of the by Phyllis Carpenter pe rere fee a ae This week we once again have as Who’s Who a student who has grad- uated and returned to East Carolina for special work. John Tomlinson Cox, Tom to us, of Mount Olive graduat- ed at the end of the Fall quarter 52 with an AB degree, majoring in English and minoring in social stud- jes. He is now working on a teacher's certificate which he must have before getting his masters. This he. is doing while waiting for orders to active duty with Uncle Sam’s Air Force. Incidentally, Tom says that he is ex- pecting them to come through at any time. Tom is an air intelligence offi- cer in the Air Force reserves at the present. He received his commission after graduating from college in No- vember. Tom came to ECC Fall quarter of 50 and enrolled as a junior. Before coming to Greenville, he attended prep school at Randolph-Macon acad- emy, a military school at Fort Royal, Va., where he completed his high school education. He then entered Duke university as a pre-medical stu- dent and studied there for two years. At Duke he worked on the Duke Chronicle, the campus newspaper, and was a member of the Pre-medical society. After he decided to transfer, East Carolina was his choice. He said that the “boys back home” talk- ed it up so much and told him what a good school this was, that he de- cided to attend. “They really helped make the choice for me,” he said. | Varied Abilities In the two years that Tom has | Tom Cox ing activities that he hag been active in many of the prominent organiza- tions on campus. These are: YMCA, (on Executive com- mittee as senior), Announcer on cam- pus radio, Alpha Phi Omega (char- Phi Sigma Pi senior year), and member of the staff of the TECO ECHO, now the “East Carolinian,” for both his junior and senior years. As a senior he was a member of the Circle K, chairman of the Men’s judiciary, on the executive council jand temporary Awards committee after the resigna- tion of the chairman. Tom, being in the ROTC for two | years, has received many honors for chairman of the 1d work. He was a member of ter member and_ vice-president his | received the Air Force Association medal and was selected the most “Dis- tinguished Military Graduate.” Of ail his honors though, he most treasures being selected as one of East Caro- lina’s “Who's Who in Universities and Colleges.” He said, “Golly, I nearly fell over backwards, I’ve never been so surprised in my life, but jt sure was a great honor.” Attends Legislature Tom was a delegate to the North Carolina Student legislature in Ra- leigh last fall. The group sat in the Senate and house and passed bills and resolutions just as the actual legisla- ture does. The ones that passed in the student legislature went to the North Carolina legislature either to pass or rejected. “This was a great @x- perience, and I was proud to have the opportunity to 0. We sure got some good lessons on parliamentary procedures,” he stated. For the past quarter much of his time has been taken up by swimming in the new pool at the gym. Just about three weeks 2g0, though, he be- came a certified Red Cross Lifesaving and Water Safety instructor. He worked on this on and off for a whole quarter—three hours each week day night. “This was a lot of hard work,” he said, “but I enjoyed it because ui like swimming.” “Pye found a real home here at East Carolina and hate to leave my friends.

Why Require Attendance? Why are girls at East Carolina required to J Entertainment series programs if y out on nights thai the programs are duled? The ruling says that women students 1ust s out to go to the programs, if they sign it on those nights. We realize that each and every student at st Carolina is paying for the programs and that numbers are supposed to help improve the re of students; but when one is limited to h a degree that she has no other choice than attend the entertainment programs, we feel that that is just going too far. Just as many girls would attend the pro- ms if they were free to sign out and go where No one is going to attend a per- formance which they think they will not enjoy. We think that all the rule tends to do is tempt they pleased. the girls to make violations. A person likes to choose his own recreation and we feel that everyone or entertainment, hould be able to do just that. LIBERAL ARTS ‘ROT’ VS. ‘ALIEN IDEAS’ (From a letter to the Daily Spartan, San Jose State college, Calif.) What’s all this rot about liberal arts educa- tion? Higher education today must exist purely for preparation for a vacation. This liberal arts plan does not prepare a person to take his place as a money-maker, a 100 per cent American. _. . 1 knew a few persons who have had a liberal arts education, and each one is neurotic or psycho. One in particular, whom I try to avoid, wastes hours at a time sitting in local restaurants, sipping coffee and discussing Beethoven, Plato and Faulkner, and I understand that creditors fly after him as to moths after an old overcoat in a closet. Just what would he do if he had to manage a going business? No! At a time when America can become the supreme nation in the world, we must teach only vocations, such as selling, accounting, advertising and credit collecting. _., Patriotic young men ard women of high intelligence must be trained to take their places as captains of industry or as master salesmen who can flatter everyone and who can... induce persons to buy. In this age of great athletes and television, liberal arts learning is obsolete, and must be written off the book of this grand and glorious nation! a fellow can’t do his work without resort to such drugs, I would say he doesn’t belong in school.” Dr. Arthur Contratto, instructor in medicine, says the pills often cause “severe nervous reaction which, al- though temporary, is handicapping.” “No-Doz,” sold without prescrip- tion, ig standard equipment for many students who fee] the need to cram the clock-around for final exams. A Food and Drugs administration rep- resentative puts it in the same class with aspirin, since the stimulant caf- feine is its only active ingredient. Harvard university has announced it will not accept absentee’s excuses of fatigue and collapse if “No-Doz” is a partial cause. Many students at East Carolina might make a practice of using the drug before exams, but we think that it would be much better if one would just begin studying a few days ear- lier. A student at Wyoming university remarked, “It isn’t so bad to sleep through all your classes, but when you start to wake up automatically every 50 minutes during the night— you’ve had it.” Special To Students You will be going home next week for a short holiday period. During this time you will have many op- portunities to tell other people about the college. As one illustration of what can be done, some of our students last Friday had an assembly period of seniors in Gastonia, and then a time set aside to work with interested ones individually. Heretofore, stu- dents have had charge of assembly programs, participated in radio pro- grams, cooperated with graduates of the college and students now at college in having a picnic or some type of evening program at which time high school seniors were in- vited, and, of course, the possibili- ties in many other ways are illimi- table. It all depends upon your ac- tive interest and motivation. How- ever, your planning should begin by correspondence, immediately, or dur- ing this weekend while you are at home. I think it would be well for you to contact your representatives in the General Assembly letting them know that we are terrifically in need of dormitories for men and women, the re-conditioning the library build- ing for classroom, the basement ef Wright for a Student union and more faculty members. If you approach the right way, these people will welcome your in- terest. » Here’s hoping for you a sugcess- ful ending to the Winter quarter and a happy week end. J. D. Messick Communists. This was learned in a recent ACP National Poll of Student Opinion. Results of the first question—Do you think avowed Communist party members should be allowed on college faculties?—are as follows: Weg. 9 per cent No 85 per cent No opinion 4 per cent Other 2 2 per cent The few students who say “yes” usually qualify it. “Communist teach- ers should be advertised as such,” says a junior at the University of Nebraska. But a sophomore in Law at Phoenix college, Ariz., says, “No, they should be shot down like dogs.” “It would be,” declares a coed at Trinity college, D. C., “like permit- ting gangsters to teach high school boys; corrupt ideals would be in- stilled in their minds. .. ” The second question was: Do you think that former members of the Communist party should be allowed on college faculties? Here are the results: Yes 4 Zs 45 per cent No 89 per cent No opinion 9 per cent Other 7 per cent “College students are supposedly old enough to judge for themselves,” says a senior in Education at the University of Idaho. A freshman at (California State Teachers college, Pa., states, “I would like to hear lectures from a Commu- nist, just for interest.” She adds, “I am not a Communist.” An ACP survey last winter indi- ated that the majority of students loyalty oaths for col- lege fessors. The figures were: approve, y cent; disapprove, 47 ity-three per cent of the graduate students disapproved. In the present survey, 60 per cent of the graduate students are in favor of college teaching jobs for former Communists. were a per cent. Se Couple Of The Week This week we have as our “Couple of the Week” another school spirited pair. Jean Page, a cute freshman cheerleader, and Don Burton, a first ll player, are both from Roanoke Rapids and have been going together for “two years, months and seventeen days.” Jean met Don at the Weldon swim- ming pool when she wags only 15. “Our meeting was very romantic,” string foo seven she said. “Some boys were trying to duck me, and Don came straight to the rescue.” Jean sang with Roanoke Rapids’ local orchestra this summer and Don, of course, was her most ardent ad- mirer. “ ‘Blue Moon’ was our favor- ite song,” Jean said, “and one night when I was singing it, I turned the mike and sang right to him. I think he was ag embarrassed as I’ve ever seen him!” (We bet he enjoyed it, though!) Jean and Don do have definite plang for the future, but as yet they have no definite date. BE YOURS TO HOLD IT HIGH “So you are from Washington and Lee university. Do you know John Henry who goes these?” “Hmm, what fraternity is he in?” “Oh, I don’t think he is a member of one.” “Well then, I’m sure I don’t know him,” replied the student from WwW and L with a snooty air. This is Brotherhood week and it should be practiced 52 weeks during the year. But do you have to be a member of a social fraternity to have brothers? No, it should not be that way. Here at East Carolina college we have. fraternities, but not social. Our fraternities are service and honorary ones, which do not practice diserimi- nation. When someone asks us “what fra- ternity are you in?” we always come back with, “why, everybody at East Carolina is a member of one big fra- ternity, everyone is friendly to all; in other words, we are one big fami- ly—we are all brothers.” This was sensed by a Carolina student visiting the ECC campus. “All the students are more friendly towards one another here than uy- where else I’ve seen. No one seems to have a grudge against anybody and, certainly, no discrimination is shown. Not even in the classification is this true. A freshman appears to be on an equal with the upperclass- man. We were surrounded by all girls at a dinner last Tuesday night given in the honor of the North Carolina novelist Mebane Holloman Burgwyn, One girl was relating a sale in the dormitory that she recently held. Her “goods” she had on sale varied from old skirts, sweaters, coats and other female garments to coat hang- ers. “T also sold some love letters, too,” she stated, “for 25 centg a dozen.” At this point we dropped our fork and exclaimed, “Love letters! Who would buy such things?” “Most anyone,” she answered. “Why they are just like reading a true love story in a magazine.” Now we've heard everything.

The local gridders have just culminated five weeks of laborious toil through winter grid rehearsals. Coaches Jack Boone and Clyde Biggers, dealers in football deception, precision and prow- ess, directed the perennial fall fa- vorites over calloused pleparation for their bid conference crown. Confronted with the tedious task of reconstructing their style of at- tack because of the recent abolition of the two-platoon system, the men- a in the course for ‘tors have worked fervently with the array of gridiron candidates, and the results have been pleasing. If there are any sleepless nights spent, they’ll be because of the complex problem of selecting a starting eleven from the talented lads on hand. The results of an interview with Coach Biggers and the fruits of the winter practices produced these in- teresting pieces for speculation. At the flanks the Pirates have five good pass-snatchers in the personages of Al Habit, J. D. Bradford, Larry Rhodes, Harry Rainey and Bob Cham- This quintet of outside have shown sparks of brilliance and their presence will be heavily felt in the loop.

Teaming with Cecil Heath, Thomas helps set up the offensive plays for the locals and addition usually manages to turn in some outstanding defensive work under the backboards. J. C. is currently the fourth lead- ing scorer on the Pirate ball club with an yverage in the vicinity of nine points per contest. Although he consistently manages to break into the scoring column Thomas is usually noted for his work under the back- boards.
