During the past years, East Carolina has gained pre- stige at these conventions,” states Katsias. Last year, former SGA pre- sident, Jimmy Phelps was elected, Speaker pro tempore, and Mike Kat- sias was elected Senator. primary purpose of the convention is to have a mock legislature debating the current news and controversial policies of the state and government. Composed of representatives from wolleges throughout the state, the convention will continue until Satur- aay at noon. Some of the proposed bills to be presented to the mock legislature are bills providing for compulsory voting of citizens, a resolution calling for a repeal of the twenty-second amend- ment of the United States Constitu- tion, and a resolution insuring the rights of the individual. The manner in which the bills are being discussed and voted upon is like the procedings of the state government. East Carolina has a delegation of twenty members attending this con- vention, and constitutes the fourth largest body represented at the con- vention. There are eleven members in the House of Representatives and two in the Senate. “A large group of students is expected to travel to Raleigh to observe over the week-end procedures,” stated Mike Katsiaa, SGA president.

HILL — The Student of the University of North Carolina recently adopted a bill “stating their opposition to dis- eriminatory clauses and expressing their opposition to admitting any or- ganization into the University in the future which has clauses discrimina- ting on the basis of tuce, creed or color.” The vote on the bill was 21-16. The bill amends a resolution concerning the adoption of the National Student Association’s declaration on student responsibility and rights. Student Body President Don Fur- tudo commended the Student Legisla- ture for its action concerning the bill. “I am quite sure that the Legislature will come under quite a bit of criti- cism for its action, but however, I feel it should be congratulated for {ts courage and willingness to state its opposition to discrimination with- in the student community.” Pointing out that UNC has always been a leader in the South academi- cally and otherwise, he went on to say, “the admission of Negro stu- dents to the University has come painlessly and without reaction oD the part of the students. “Regardless of their personal views on the issue of segregation, the stu- dents, the faculty and the adminis- tration of the University have rec- ognized their obligation to the laws of the nation ahd: have, therefore, realistically met their obligations,” he continued. urposes of the conference bring together people of good discuss problems arising out acial tension in the South; To develop a fuller understand- nity; To nge Eleetives Tempt Vimited Muymbhar East Carolina is now offering more electives than in the past years.

PAGE TWO Newspaper Criticized For “Not-Nice’ News: Dawns Press’ Policies This newspaper has received harsh crit- icism recently from sources too influential here to igrore. A newspaper expects a certain amount of criticism from students, perhaps from administretors, teachers, and even outsiders. is not unusual for a newspaper to be icized for its editorial policy regarding things as polities, social questions, and views on education. But it is distressing when a newspaper is criticized for printing news. The ST CAROLINIAN has criticized for printing news. been A newspaper, by definition, prints news. Not just good news. Not just bad news. All news. There are those who would criticize the newspaper for printing news that is not en- tirely complimentary to everycue involved. These people labor under a false impression. A paper only prints the news, it doesn’t make it. Those who have criticized this paper for printing news that is not wholly and un- conditionally complimentary to East Caro- lina College and all concerned, are basing their criticisms on a one-eyed view of a news- paper’s first duty. Those who have accused this paper of not being a “nice’’ paper are wrong in the first place to assume that a newspaper is committed to print only nice news. If nice news is made, it, is printed. If “not-nice” news is made, it. too, is printed. There are those who criticize this paper for printing fussy letters from irrate stu- dents. Yet those same critics fail to realize that the EAST CAROLINIAN is the stu- dent’s only means of expression in many cases. Some go further in suggesting that the editor edit the letters, printing only those parts which are important, kind, or com- plimentary to East Carolina College. These people are dickering with freedom of speech well as urging the editor to act as a censor. as When a newspaper becomes merely a tool of self-flattery for an institution, it is worthless. When a newspaper becomes mere- ly a journal of sweetness and light, it also becomes unrealistic, useless and an insult to ts readers. It to be a newspaper. ceases If these critics want a flattery sheet for this institution, a back-slapping brochure for its student body and its administrators and its instructors; if these critics want a paper which will print only that news which is comfortable, only those reviews which are complimentary, only reports of winning ball- games—then they should do away with the EAST CAROLINIAN. For, «s long as the East Carolinian re- mains a ncwspaper, it must remain dedicated to printing news, rather than sopa, and truth rather than factionary illusions.

Gwen Johnson, Shirley Lewis, Jean Ann Waters, Melborne Billy Nye, Robert Greene ° Fditorially Sneaking By KATHRYN JOHNSON Before the Thanksgtving holidays, a group of students drew up what they calied a formal protest against vregularities in the recent activity fee vote. An SGA spokesman stated that an investigation must be held. SGA president Mike Katsias said the protest was not formal, merely a scrap of paper. He claimed no in- vestigation had to be held. Elections chairman Carolyn Aycock Stated that even though certain things occurred which should not have, no investigation had to be made. An SGA senator called the oppo- sers to the fee vote irregularities rabble rousers. He claimed that the things that happened were not new in voting on this campus. Rules were never strictly observed in voting. “Why raise such a fuss about things which occur all the time,” he said. A member of the administration claimed that if we followed all the ules too strictly or made rules too strict, we would make it too hard for the poll monitors and the students who were voting. Of course, following rules is hard But we sincerely believe that rules are not made to be broken. If they are continuously broken then they should be enforced or abolished. This applies to all and any rules. Perhaps we need a new set-up for students voting. We need a system that would not be too hard on the poll monitor and not so much trouble as to discourage students from yo- ting We have a solution that would be of little trouble to all involved and would make voting simple, easy, and valid. Along with his identification card each student would be issued a vot- ing card. On the voting card num- bers from about one to thirty (or whatever the estimated number of elections is) would appear. On elec- tion day a student could vote any- where on campus by presenting his identification card along with his g card. If he votes at election number one, then a hole is punched through number one on his voting card, etc. Fach election would have a number. With this system no registration would be required. (It is not required anyway). We would suggest a new voting rule. Ballots should be handed to the student who has been cleared for voting. Heretofore ballots have often been placed on voting counters or tables for the students to pick up. Certainly it would be easy for some dishonest person to pick up more than one ballot. Even honest persons are sometimes tempted when such a rine opportunity arises. Sometimes students vote on impor- tant things—the activity fee is an example—and such things affect every student who is here or will come to East ‘Carolina. For this rea- son we are highly in favor of our suggested method, or any other meth- od, which will assure valid results, inquestionable results. We are not just children playing around when we decide matters such as whether it will cost more te come to ECC or not. It might be wise to add that we have not said or do not say that there were irregularities in the fee vote. Our only conviction is that elections and all manner of student voting should be conducted in such a manner that the results are unques- tionably valid. The person in charge of the voting, elections chairman, would never again be subject to such harsh criticism—criticism for things of which she had no know- ledge, had knowledge, or for things over which she had no control. This year’s election chairman has done a creditable job. Up until this past vote, we have heard no criticism of any election over which she had control. The voting policy of this college and not Miss Aycock should receive criticism. She worked under conditions and policies set up long before she took over her job. Ac- cording to these policies and condi- tions, she could have done no finer job and can do no finer job until the voting jprocedures for this campus are revised.

All let- voti ow EAST Don’t Push, Shove Gently CAROLINIAN THURSDAY, DECEMBE R Li, 19gg Te ee Slight Exaggeration Ee They'll Buy Anything, Till They Get Mad People who have the impression that the public can not get what it wants are dead wrong. An example of this is made by those of us who grind out so often every hour those little round tubes of tobacco and paper that doctors say will invari- ably shorten our lives. A couple of years ago, as was and still is the custom, some expert was saying “it couldn’t be done.” On that particular occasion, the man in the know was talking about filter ci- garettes. The consensus among to- bacco men was that a filter-tip cig- arette provided less tars and nico- tine ONLY with the sacrifice of good taste in the tobacco. Researchers, the men in the laboratories at all the big tobacco companies, occupied a limited amount of space and operated on a cramped budget. These men were a necessary. evil in the business, not because their findings meant better health for the public, but because now and then their discoveries sound- ed good in advertisments. Then what happened? One day they started talking about cancer— by DERRY WALKER Lung Cancer. That day the public pulled the brake cord and the tobacco world slid all over itself. The con- sumer had decided to think. What happened next was a revo- lution in cigarette manufacturing. A major tobacco company introduced to the public a filtered “fag” that rose to a leader in sales almost overnight. Why? Because what “couldn’t be done” had to be done; the public had said so. So they changed the length, con- tent, shape, and the weight of the leading brands. They set up new scales and principles by which the little habit-forming tubes were made. They brought the researchers, the chemists, and the technicians out of the industry’s cellar and gave them more gold and test tubes than they had ever seen before. This, indirectly, the public had dictated by calling a halt to tobacco sales. Now, how did it happen? Again, think back. Here was the public, drifting along, zestfully. buying any- thing and everything offered by the controllers of an industry, joyfully Calm Horses Obey Orders By TOM JACKSON The following advice was given to me once by one who is very adept at giving advice of this nature. Perhaps it will aid some of you if you are ever faced with the problem of “buying a horse.” There are many different kinds of norses, There are big ones, little ones, fat ones and skinny ones. Some horses think they are people, some horses know they are only horses, which doesn’t matter because they like to be horses. The only really unhappy horses are the ones that aren’t quite horses and yet aren’t actually ponies. (a pony is an extremely small horse—mot really a horse as I said, a pony) These animals (the ones of which I was just speaking a moment ago) are terribly unhappy because they can never be sure what to say when someone asks them what they are. Now perhaps this would seem to you to be a minor thing, but it’s quite a problem to these horses-wh- ponies. Oh well. " : When buying a horse it’s very im. portant to be sure to obtain a -well adjusted one, for mal-adjusted horses can be real problems, The surest way to tell if your horse is stable is to put him to some very simple tests. Simply deprive him of food for a few days and check his re- actions. If his temper is short at the end of this period, and he seems list- less ‘and ornery, it is quite likely that you have picked a fustrated horse. On the other hand, if he remains cool and calm, obeys orders, and retains his sweet nature, you can be pretty satisfied that your horse is stable, well-adjusted, and will make a nice addition to your well. adjusted family. Of course if you were stuck with an eccentric horse & | bit of psychoanalysis will do a great: deal... ‘Another tip in buying a horse: Be absolutely sure that he is sociable and mixes well with other horses. Don’t buy a horse that invariably stands alone in an obscure corner of the pasture. He is probably an introvert. Oh, but if you’re an introvert, you would do well to. select that horse as he would :robably make you happy. Now to these few horses who think they are people. These are rare, but you are likely to run actoss-a few in searching for the perfect horse. A large majority of these horses are found in the thoroughbread circles. For some reason they are under the erroneous opinion that they are better than other horses. This is ridiculous naturally, but we do- have some real problems. with them. They are easily recognized by their arogant. stance, and large dreamy eyes which seem to be staring at some distant point. For the most part these horses are unmanagable .so we simply leave them alone. We never tell them that they are not people but simply horses, for this would upset thelr baldnce and perhaps cause psychohowatesitis. (a very rare disease seldem -curable) Letter To Editor Dear Editor: : A footnote to the discussion expressing its buying powers as it scooped up this product and that, whether its origin were the floor of 4 charnej house or a mountain-top in Tennessee. Then from somewhere, (maybe from the dark at the top of the stairs) a moving hand wrote a few words on apiece of paper; words that stimu- lated the public; words with which the public agreed; words they ac- cepted as sensible and logical. No more was needed. The public stood up and got what it wanted. This is good. This is right, This is America. Whether the public be that of the nation as a whole, of a single state, of a city or town, or the public in a college, it can dictate the product to which it will subscribe. It needs merely to stand up united against whatever is incongruous with its way of thinking, and modify or abolish it. Without unity, the public can make no changes. Without stimulating words, it will have little unity and will, inevitably, buy anything .... anything at all. Author Comments Mn EC’s Battle Ff Intelleets Dr. Gerald W..

And that the students here belong to the state. And, further, that this newspaper belongs to the state and is sup- posed to express—not the views of the stu- dents—but the views of the state. Who am I to argue with the state? Me and Boris Pasternaki. I suppose the person who informed me of all this reached such a conclusion logically : since this is state-supported school, it be longs to the state. Since the students here go to school on state property and use state materials and are supplemented by the state, they also belong to the state. The same is true of the newspaper. By the same token, I was also wrong when I urged students to write letters to this newspaper and make public their likes and dislikes, their opinions and feelings on im- portant matters. Since this paper and all the students here belong to the state, I can see now how very full of error the EAST CAROLINIAN has been this year. In fact, I wouldn’t doubt if this hasn’t been the most terrible paper this school has had in some time. This paper has printed objective news and student opi- nion. No wonder it has been criticized. So, if I may, I would like to cleanse my- self of my sins against the state here, and make amends. I hereby request that all students stop writing irrate letters to this newspaper un- less the niaterial therein be state issued ex- pression.

That’s me. I’ve been the guest of the South for several years row and have received among other things much of my education through her generosity with scholarships, fellowships, grants-in-aid and the low price of Southern Fried Chicken in Gainesville, Florida. Naturally these many kindnesses have accumulated into an immoderately sized monkey under my skin (these cliches don't even work in pairs) who kee: s scrat- ching me about my ingratitude. Now it’s not as easy to repay kindness of this sort as you would think. Southerners like Yankees don’t like interlopers telling them how to solve their problems, and problems being my only specialty (in school they were always talking about pro- plems so when I got out the only thing I knew anything about was problems), for a long time I was un- cure about how I was going to repay this debt.

The attendance has increased with each speaker thus far, and there are five more speakers scheduled for this year. The next speaker, Dr. Herold C. Hunt will be on campus January 19- 21. Dr. Hunt is Eliot Professor of | Education at Harvard University, and has served as Under Secretary of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Feburary 16-18, Dr. Peter Vierck, noted Pulitzer Prize winner and pro- fessor of history from Mt. Holyoke College will be on campus. Dr. Vierck, an authority on Russian problems, | von the Pulitzer Prize in 1949 for his volume of poetry, Terror and Decorum. During the week of March 9-18, Dr. T. Z. Koo, Chinese Statesman and Christian from Wilmington, Dela- ware, will be on campus to partici- pate not only in the Danforth series but also to aid in the YMCA Centen- nial Celebration. During this week the annual International Relations Instl- tute will be held on campus, and Dr. Koo will be the principal speaker at this meeting. The last speaker of the year, Dr. M. J. Herskovit, anthropologist and Director of African Studies at North- western University, will visit our eampus April 29-80. There has been some question &- mong students on the campus as to how we received the Danforth grant end how much it is. According to about three or four Danforth Foundation wrote to many colleges and universi- ties in the United States and asked them what they would do $26,000. ‘ answer and the next year they re ceived a grant of $19,500. The reasons for which the Founda- tion gave the grant were many. The faculty had been working hard over the problems of the college commu- nity, and they were aware of these student needs: (1) more general edu- cation; (2) opportunity to think in terms of large problems; (3) direct contact with individuals from other sections of the country; (4) # more acute view of the race of the indi- vidual in relationship to the complex of cultural, social, and spiritual re- jationships into which he and his future are woven. Powell Pertorms With Orchestra The East Carolina Orchestra gave a program of music by Beethoven, Handel, Mozart, and Rachmaninoff Sunday afternoon. Gerald Powell of Rockingham appeared as piano s0- loist. ' Donald H. Hayes directed his 60- piece orchestra Sunday for the first time as its conductor. Mr. Hayes, a faculty member for several years, became director of the orchestra last fall and has rehearsed with the group since that time. He was concert mas- ter for the ensemble for five seasons. James H. Parnell of the college faculty, assistant director of the or- chestra, acted as conductor in one of the numbers on Sunday’s program. Mr. Powell, a junior at the college, was soloist as the orchestra present- ed “Eighteenth Variation on a Theme of Paganini” by Rachmaninoff. He E.

And I’m told that this de-lorable situation is caused by the fact that Southerners are just naturally naive and easily duped. Well, if there’s any truth in this, it probably results from an ignorance of the ways and means of Commu- nism. As I was thinking about how it would be nice if I could give the South the benefit of a Yankee’s ex- perience, I received a letter from \1Jnele Amos back in Pogue’s Landing, Wisconsin. I’d written him because he’s the greatest Communist fighter we have up North since Senator Mc- Carthy died. You'll have to forgive Uncle Amos’ grammar and spelling; he’s been so busy fighting Commu- pists that he hasn’t had much time for the more gentee] accomplish- ments: Dear nephew, 1 wuz shore sorry to hear about On Detecting Commies d Yankee A By H.

The plan is this. I think we ought +t trade Bue for a pure-bred red-bote hound. Gare we have all become attached to Buc, ‘vt cao we afcord to +9 sentim :<:-1 times wit. Communists are spuat- ting beneath every book in the !f- Dary just wsting to ;amp out and infiltrate our organizations, influence our politicians and Danforth lecturers and blow up our school buildings? I say it calls for drastic action and I'm willing to contribute a dime to a fund with which to vay the boot between Buc and a pure om red- bone. This plan has several digs oka besides the main one of getting rid of the Communists who are crawling all over us. I can’t go into all of them here, but one should be mentioned briefly. We need something here at East Carolina College to offset the prestige which North Carolina State will acquire with their new atomic reactor. Can you imagine any greater glory than graduating from or tea- ching at the institution which brings the first genuine, infoolable Commie- detector to the South. I am at peace now, with myself, my God, my Coun-| try and a most gracious stepmother.
