No one asks you to believe or agree with all that is written in the columns. We would be in a sad state today if everyone did agree with all that another said. Oftentimes we print editorials that have ap- peared in other papers that we receive. It is not our intention that the readers of this paper should think that these reprinted editorials are our views. We clearly print at the beginning of each reprint that we use the name of the paper that it was taken from. We hope that we have cleared up some of the questions that have ben coming to us, and if at any time any of our readers would like to dis- cuss the policies of this paper with us wt will be more than glad to do so. Suy by Tommie Lupton We would like to congratulate all persons who won positions on next year’s Student Government associa- tion slate, and we hope that each officer will strive to make East Carolina a democratic school. Released recently by the Enter- tainment committee was the news that Ray Anthony will play here in April. Each spring the committee brings a name band to East Carolina, and the Anthony group of musicians has been selected for the second straight year. The Ray Anthony band really put on a show last year, and we feel that everyone should enjoy his per- formance ag much this year. An- nouncements will be made later con- cerning whether or not students will be permitted to bring guests. Student identification cards will be used in giving students their admission tic- kets. more What many persons at East Caro- lina consider the biggest dance of the year, the Military ball, is all over. From all talk that has been going around, we feel quite sure that all the cadets had a wonderful time. We saw some naval ROTC students from other schools, as well as some officers who have graduated from here and some from the air base in Kinston. The feeling of spring is now in the air, and we can sympathize with any persons who have late afternoon classes.

High school day is not too far off We all hope that we will be able to influence as many high school come to East Carolina as have in the past few years.

We have y built up a good reputation over this section of the country, and must all work hard to not let our good name falter. now. seniors to really we Easter will soon be upon us, and we will get a few more days of vaca- tion. Everyone had better make good use of these days, for they will be the last ’til the end of the quarter. The school calendar should be rather full from here on out, and ali should stay on the ball. A coed at Drake university, Iowa, rushed into Spanish class 2 few min- late, threw off her coat and started to sit down. Students began to chuckle. The coed looked down horrified, then quickly threw her coat around her again and ran out. She’d forgotten to wear a skirt. utes College graduates are being of- fered higher salaries now than ever before, according to Dr. Frank S. Endicott, director of placement at Northwestern university. He says a study of 176 major cor- porations shows the average starting salary is $304 a month. We wonder if these figures pertain to school teachers? > Couple Of The Week Since the first day of registration in the fall term of 1951, Ruth Little and Jim McCormick have found each other’s company very enjoyable. Even though Jim and Ruth are from the same county (Ruth is from Winter- ville and Jim is from Ayden), they had never met until they came here. In fact Ruth admitted that she had seen Jim quite a few times on the basketball court and thought he was the most conceited boy she had ever seen! “Of course my opinion changed after the first date,” she said. Ruth and Jim love to window shop, and so far agree on the same types of furniture, houses, etc., which is a good thing, because Jim and Ruth became engaged last December and soon they may be going more than just window shopping. (Editor’s note: By being named “Couple of the Week,” Ruth and Jim will each be given a carton of Chest- erfields, a free pass to the Pitt thea- tre, a free meal at the Olde Town Inn and an item from Saslow’s jewelers.) The 1939 girls’ basketball team compiled a perfect record of five wins and no defeats. They capped their season by downing the College of Charleston 82-25 on the losers’ court. EAST CAR OLINI Who’s Who At East Carolina No one needs any introduction to this week’s Who’s Who, Warren “Sonny” Russell, for he has made a name for | ‘lf at East Carolina not only for his athletic ability but also for his friendly, good natured personality which has won the hearts of the student body. Sonny, who is attending school on a basketball scholarship, came to ECC Fall quarter of ’49 and plans to graduate at the end of the Fall quarter next year with a BS_degree, majoring in physical education and minoring in math. He said that he would like to teach physical educa- tion and also coach after graduating, but yet he wasn’t too sure about what the future would bring. Plans To Fly Sonny thinks that he will attend flight school and go into the “jet” phase of training after he receives his commission. This spring quarter will complete his military work here at East Carolina. Most of Sonny’s activities on cam- His athletic ability has been greatly displayed in the years that he has helped lead the Pirates to victory.

His first year here, Sonny made the first squad and held that for four years. These and many other may help one to understand why he has _ received many honors.

Parker Maddrey Dear Mr. Legislator: When you are deciding what to do the money, remember a growing state-supported collega in the East—n. East Carclina. We are confid that you are handling the budge better the state as a whole. We appreciate the funds allocated to us in the past, but now that our school is continually expanding, we ask for more financial aid for build- ings. On behalf of the day students here, especially need dormitories. An out-of-town student must rent a room in town because there is no dormi- tory space. But rooming in town is with state’s taxpayer’s mely, to we is more expensive. The average day student pays $15 a month or $45 per quarter for rent while the dorm stu- dent s fee is a little more than $20 a quarter. Not only the extra expense is a disadvantage, vut the loss of true “college life” makes the day student feel that college is no different from high school with the exception of studies. This student is deprived of dormitory association. At present there are about 1,250 beds on campus. Last year there were over 1,900 persons who applied for these beds which left ever 600 in the cold. This year there were even more applicants, however, those figures are not available yet. So, Mr. Legislator, we hope that you can see our point of view and remem- ber East Carolina for more dormi- tories for us day students. Sincerely, jare by Phyllis Carpenter ” Russell tournament. He made second string All-tournament this year. Greatest Honor “Of all the honors I’ve ever re- ceived, I feel that receiving the framed letter from the students com- mending me for my work here was the greatest thing that ever hap- pened to me,” he said. This letter was presented to Sonny on “Sonny Russell Night” in Memorial gymna- sim by Bob Robinson, president of the Student Government, in behalf of the student body. “I didn’t even know about the letter until the after- noon before the game,” he told us. “They originally had planned not to tell me about it at all bui decided that had better to keep me from being too surprised.” Sonny never chews gum the day of a game or during a game. He said that he didn’t know whether or not you would call that a superstition, Warren onny they but he had heard once that it would make your eyes tired. After being asked if he had had any amusing experiences on the basketball court, he thought a few minutes and said, “Well, at- the time this wasn’t so funny but now that it’s all over, I guess it was quite amusing. I got thrown out of the game for fighting AC this season.” Likes the South When asked about the trip to Kan- sas City, the main thing he said was that the boys were glad to get back to North Carolina. “I prefer he South to the North because the people up there just are n’t too friend- ly. Then, that food isn’t like good ole Southern home cooking.” Basketball isn’t Sonny’s only tal- ent, though, for he has been a mem- ber of the baseball team his fresh- senior y at too, man, sophomore and Also he likes fishing (of any kind), hunting and just any sport that takes him out-of-doors. By the way, he did major in “Y-Shop bridge” one quar- ter. This outstanding athlete was rec- ognized widely even before coming to college. He was voted the “Most Valuable Player’ in East-West basketball game and also was asked to play in the Optimist bewl This invitation he had to decline because of a broken ankle.

Poll Reveals Students Oppose Drinking In Dorm, Late Dates (ACP) Collegiate morals are high- er than the popular stereotype sug- indicated from results of Poll of Student gests, as the ACP Opinion. The vast majority of students are: (1) Against drinking in dormitories, and (2) Against staying out too late with their dates. Women are more “strict” about these matters than National men. Students were asked their opinions dormitory drinking rules. Here the results: Should be allowed 16% Shouid not be allowed 75% No opinion 6% Other 3% Only 12 per cent of the women are for dormitory drinking; 82 per cent are against it. “I don’t believe in drinking, period,” exclaims a sopho- more coed from Geneva college, Pa. A freshman Engineering at Southeastern Missouri State college thinks dormitory drinking should be allowed, because it “would keep them out of trouble in taverns.” And a business student at Rich- mond Professional instute, Va., de- clares, “The more restrictions that are imposed, the more people will want to break them. College students should be treated like adults.” One a.m. appears to be the most popular hour for getting a girl back to her dormitory after a Saturday night date, with 2 a.m. being a not very close second. Students were ask- ed: In your opinion, at what hour on a Saturday night should a coed be required to get back to her dor- mitory? The answers: on in The Day Students of ECC By midnight or before 14% THS OFF IN Se LCOMD ISMINUTES = S'POSE 45% 24% 8% No opinion 4% Other 5% With the men, 2 by 1 a.m. By 2 After 2 a.m, a.m a.m. is just as popular an hour as 1 a.m., both choi- ces getting 33 per cent of the male vote. But the girls are 54 per cent in favor of 1 a.m. and only 17 per cent in favor of 2 a.m. Another 17 per cent of the girls would just as soon be returned to their dormitories by midnight or be- fore; eleven per cent of the men feel the same way about it. Many of the students are careful to iualify their “excede with an occasions,” answers on “unless there’s a big dance.” A sophomore in education at Mac- Murray college for Women, Jackson- ville, Iil,, thinks “it depends a lot on the size of the town and what there is for the students to do.” But a male junior at the Universi- ty of the South, Sewanee, Tenn., is more specific. “After 2 he says, “way after.” special or a.m.,” Misspelling Words by Kay Johnston How many times have you been guilty of ruining a test paper, im- promptu theme or any other piece of writing because of misspelling ? Only this morning we had two points taken off because we used protestant instead of Episcopal, sim- ply because we were unsure of its spelling. Yes, the dictionary would be 2@ good source, if we only had the time to look up the words. We're not the only ones who have spelling trouble. Only yesterday we received a letter that was probably supposed to arouse a very romantic mood. Instead it produced hysteria when we read this sentence: “You have such wondifull eyes.” Not too long ago we received a letter from Mother. This letter was a little different, however, for we were a little surprised to find one of our own letters returned with ev- ery word we had misspelled under- lined. Was Mother disgusted! A col- lege sophomore! (Mother doesn’t hear from us quite so often now. We don’t have time to look the words up.) The solution to this problem? Gosh, we only wish we “new”!

Teachers’ colleges—sometimes called educd tion’s stepchildren—are again under fire, a cording to the New York Times. _ Students preparing to be teachers, says the Times, did worse on the draft deferrment test than any other group. More than 400,000 students have taken this test. Students in engineering, the physical sciences and mathematics were in top position. Business and agriculture were just above education, at the bottom of the list. Comments the Times, “The educational world has reason to be greatly disturbed at the con clusion contained in the report. No matter how one looks at the data, the performance of the education group is conspicuously poor. ‘The conclusion is inescapable that a lars¢ number of low-ability students are preparing enter the teaching field.” “SPORTS ECHO by Bob Hilldrup basketball: More |W hen a full athletic program will be tudent body on tap.

The Bues left for ACC with full intentions of retaining the Bohunk which they won back during the past cage season. As the Pirates departed, Boone had not settled on a specific starting line-up. Only two positions seemed safe. Paul Gay appeared a certainty in left field with Major Hooper the probability in right field. Battling for the center field post were Boyd Webb and Jim Corbin. Kither Jimmy Byrd or Jimmy Pi- ner was expected to receive the start- ing nod for mound duty. Byrd and Piner were number one and number two last year. Ralph Britt, Bill Cline and Bill Hardee were slated to share the catching. The infield is the deepest in recent years. W. C. anderson and Sonny | Russell were competing for first base. At second base a hot battle has been staged between Cecil Heath and Dick Hoskins. Burmey Stevens and Paul Jones have been competing for the shortstop spot. At third base, a three- way war has been staged by Gaither Cline, Charlie Cherry and George Sauls.
