Tverieux Award of a certificate and | $50 at the fifty-sixth annual meet- ing of the North Carolina Academy of Science May 1 and 2 at Catawba was lege in Salisbury. The award is presented y for and research ly by omy the best written in science to a orth Carolina undergraduate, and is vamed after the man who was re- nsible for. the discovery of the etails-of the in 1906. The electron and its charge C. Academy of Science is n orgs ition for the promotion f scientific research and study and the Collegiate Academy is an under- rraduate branch of the group. The Collegiate Academy was organized at East Carolina in 1954 through the efforts of John A. Yarbrough and Dr. R. M. Helms. Hopkins, who is. specializing in won the Derieux Award on the basis of significant and original research by an undergraduate stu- dent. His study deals with numeri- cal variations in the central body covers of the brown or purple sea urchin and is entitled ‘“Morphologi- eal Variations in the Periproct of Arbacia bunctulata (Lamarck) of Beaufort, North Carolina.” This par- ticular paper deals primarily with the urchins found fn shallow water (not over 3 feet), however, Hopkins recently received a grant to further his study of the animals found in deeper water. ss Hopkins said, “The work couldn’t have been done without the help of people who have worked on this prob- lem before and especially the help of Dr. Bob Haubrich who helped me from getting off on a tangent through guidance and encouragement. Dr. kW. B. Harvey, of Princeton, also biology, H rave me a great deal of inspiration and help through correspondence. She is the most prominant living authority on this animal. In addition to the people who helped me person- ally, T also received a lot of assist- ance from the Duke Marine Labora- tory at Beaufort. They gave me the use of their laboratories, library and other equipment essential in the study. Dr. John Vernberg, Director of the Marine Biology Station of Reanfort, was also a lot of help.” Hopkins added, “Before a person ean do research, it seems to me that something has to bother him, even keep him awake nights to urge him to find out the answer. This prob- lem arose in a comparitive anatomy lab and I worrled over it until I decided to find out the answer through research.” Hopkins is president of Chi Beta ; Phi Science fraternity and vice pres- | ident of Phi Sigma Pi . He was also | elected president of the Collegiate Academy of nce last weekend. During the Dr. R. M. Helms, of the Department of Science was elected chairman of the Physics Section of the Academy. Dr. Robert R. Haubrich, also of the ECC Science Department, was appointed to serve on the three member board of the Collegiate Academy. Twenty-one students of science from East Carolina attended the meeting during the weekend. Repre- senting the faculty of the science de- partment were Dr. Haubrich, Dr. Helms, Dr. Mary C. Helms, Nancy B. Eliason, Joseph G. Boyette, and Floyd M. Read, Jr. Paper Honors Staff Members The EAST CAROLINIAN | staff conducted its annual awards banquet last week.

J. Herskovits noted authority on African problems discussed “Africa Today”. During his appearances on campus April 29-30, Dr. Herskovits emphasized the important role which Africa has played in the past, and the even greater role which it will play in the future. Thursday morning, Dr. Herskovits began with During his discussion the January 4 riots in the Belgium Congo to illustrate the upheaval pre- Africa. The riots anti-white demonstrations the centers, sently affecting were schools, against social and Catholic missions because of their government connection and because of the treatment they receive there. Dr. Herskovits stressed that the African problem is a dynamic one, but the United States refuses to re- cognize it as such. In comparison he said that the problem of the Union of South Africa was ten times great- er than our problem in the South. When questioned as to how impor- tant he co ered the problem in the South, Dr. Herskovits commented, “I think that the racial situation in the South looked at from the position of the United States, gives us one of our most serious handicaps. I do not wish to raise any question of blame or ise, because these things are his- facts and have to be accepted All over ile to the world people are ( the United States when they point to the difference in what we do in regard to: race relations and what we preach about human rights and freedom, as proof that we're not honest,” continued Dr. Her- is one of the reasons why, ling for freedom before the rest of the world, we have got to look at ourselves. As far as Africa is concerned, the Africans are friend- ly to the U. S., but there was not a single issue raise by Africans as as the issue of race relations e U.S.,” he concluded. Dr. Herskovits has conducted ex- nsive research in the field of an- thropology in such countries as Dutch iana, West Africa, Haiti, Trinidad, and Sub-Saharan Africa. an author, he has written many outstanding books in his field. His “The Myth of the Negro,” first pub- lished in 1941 is now in its second printing. Some of his other works include “The American Negro, A Study of Racial Crossings,” and “Re- bel Destiny Among the Bush Negroes of Dutch Guiana.” At present Dr. Herskovits is pre- paring a report to present to the U.

For weeks now, the Free World has openly speculated on how John ster Dulles’ replacement would le the current touchy world sit- uation. The recent announcement of his successor, Christian A. Herter served only to increase the specula- tion. Will Herter be able to evoke a compromise from the present con- trasting allied stands? Will he waver on the Berlin situation? Will he fol- low Dulles’ policies? And will his arthritic condition prove too much a handicap? These are only a few of the questions Americans and the en- e asking daily. The an- to some of the questions will heoming soon. other Secretary of State has been thrust into quite the position Herter finds himself in to- day. Not only must he fill the shoes of Dulles, but he must immediately mite the allies on the critical Ber- » problem. As things stand at the present Great Britan is willing to give some ground to Russia for the sake of a peaceful solution. West Germany and France on the other hand feel that to give an inch would be commiting suicide. So far neither side has expressed willingness to give on their demands. This is the situation as the May 11 Bie Four Foreign Conference in Geneva draws near. Most observers agree that the conference is intended to be a stepping stone for a possible summit conference with Kruschchev. This summit conference in turn would be primarily for the purpose of dis- cussing Berlin and German reunifi- cation. Thus failure of the West to reach a strong unified agreement on specific proposals to present to Krushchey could jeopardize the en- tire chain of events. As the neutral in the Western camp, the responsi- tire \ 1 swer be f Probably no Activity Fees Too Much? By JAMES CORBETT bility of securing this agreement is squarely on Herter’s shoulders. The extent of his suecess not only may determine his professional future, but the future of Democracy as well. Christian A. Herter is a determined and devoted advocate of peace. This alone will prove his biggest asset. Though lacking the physical stamini Why Can't I Be “What is. the word?” said the Stu- dent Government candidate. “More power for student govern- ment?” queried the voter. “No, you are behind the times,” countered the candidate. “Power was last year’s word. The new word is student awareness.” “Oh,” said the voter, “I’m sorry I was out of town for awhile.” “Perfectly all right,” soothed the candidate. “You are a voter and there- fore may say anything you wish.” “But how do we achieve this aware- ness?” “Iam glad you asked me that ques- tion. Our party has a committee work- ing on it right now. The results of our investigation should be available in the near future.” “Sometime after election?” “Right. You are extremely astute.” “Well, I hate to make myself ob- noxious, but exactly how do you plan to become aware—or are you aware at the moment? If you are already aware, I would like to see some signs of your awareness. That isn’t asking too much.” “Well, yes. I can see that you have a point there. But don’t you think that it is a little unkind of you to ask me a question like that. I mean, after ail, how would I know. I would have to get in the senate first to see exactly what cam be done.” of his predecessor, the new secretary makes up for this with political know- how and conscientiousness. Only his- tory will bear these points out. But for the current generation, we can be sure that if peace is to be extracted from the current state of world af- fairs, Christian Herter is as likely to do it as anyone. A Candidate? You mean that you don’t know enough about the senate right now to to be able to suggest constructive steps?” guess you are right. But I am intelligent and I will learn fast.” How about that. Let’s see. You don’t know very much about student government, except that you would like to change it. You aren’t very aware; however, you should like to become aware—but you don’t know how. Since you think that you are intelligent you figure that you will learn rapidly, and that in a short time you will be able to make the SGA an effective force for student aware- Forgetting that you haven’t mentioned anything of which students should be aware, how do you differ from me?” “Well, I am an SGA candidate.” “Yes, I know, you already told me. But why shouldn’t I be an SGA candi- date. After all, I am intelligent and I don’t know very much. Doesn’t that qualify me?” “Listen, I would like to continue this discussion, but you catch me at a bad time. I plan to have a headache in about half hour. I will talk to you some other time.” “After you have discussed the mat- ter with your campaign manager?” “Yes, you are extremely astute.” (—Colorado Daily) ness. Two Campus Organizations Prefer Freedom At least two important campus organizations are asking the SGA to cut them free. It seems they want to operate under some liberal, left-wing ideology known as “free enterprise.” That means that if they failed to take in enough money by their own en- deavors they would willingly become defunct. The fraternities are not one of the above groups. But, it is well known that they would love to be independent like some of their bro- thers are on other campuses. Intramurals on our campus’ should be a part of the P.E. department. Then boys training to be coaches could gain experience by refereeing for the games: free. At present one person, Bill Boyd, is president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and board of directors for the intramural program. And the system of paying referees is most irregular. A bank account separate from the SGA treasury is used. This is in di- rect opposition to the existing con- stitution. I understand that special dispensation was received from SGA chief, Bulldog Dyson. What about it, By BOB JOHNSON Charlie? Last week a high administrative official gave unofficial support to the move to remove us from the NSA. He called the organization “adolescently liberal” and said he was glad to see us out of it. The Advisory Council of the NSA includes Ralph Bunche, Reinhold Nei- buhr, Walter P. Reuther, and Harokd E. Stassen. “ I understand that Neibuhr is re- tiring from Union Theological Semi- nary this summer. So, any of you who had hoped to study under him will be forced to use his books or his disciples. Sorry. Recently I talked to Mr. Mahlon Coles, manager of our college book store. He showed me through his shop, and I found him to be an ami- cable, courteous, young business exe- cutive. His experience in both pri- vate and public. business is wider than his youthfulness indicates. As- sisting him are Mr. H. G. Rainey and our dear Miss Mendenhall. Mr. Coles assured me that a stu- dent book exchange was already. in ; * 9 operation, and that the only way the SGA could establish one was to open one off campus with private funds. There goes one pet project—out the window in just thirty-two words, one comma, and one period! During your college life you will pay $528.00 to the SGA in the form of activity fees. Is that too much? It- could be avoided mainly by des- troying the SGA. Are there other rea- sons why the SGA should be disban- ned? Yes. How can it be disbanned? Before long I will try to answer those questions for you. Keep watehing. Last week Dog Dyson wrote an article for this page.

Skiing? It’s Simple By DERRY WALKER If you have a boat, a and access to an < you are a fortunate person—provided can water-ski. Wa kiing used to be a sport for « a few people, but like golf and the cha- it has become a craze that attracts more a more brave individuals. The first time you try it, you find you self waist-deep in water, struggling to se your feet into the rubber attachments of ¢ tops of the skis. You’re surrounded by yot buddies and each of them is giving you ad vice. You try to listen to everyone’s adv at once, but you only get bits and pieces it, because you keep losing your balance whi! putting the s on and you slide under wate: The guy in the boat yells at you and tells you to grab the ski rope so that he tak the slack out of it, and then you are told t bring your legs up under you and stick the tips of the skis out of the water—no easy task the first time. : Finally, you’re holding the rope, the rop is tight between you and the boat,-and you somehow have the tips of the skis out of the water, and the guy in the boat hollers an asks you if you’re ready. Although you are ready not to ski, but to get the devil b out of the water, you tell yourself you mig as well go ahead since you’ve gone this far. You nod your head to the guy in the boat.

As a part of the initiation procedure for membership in Phi Sigma Pi, the pledges are required to write an ori- ginal paper on their philosophy of education. Usually the outstanding paper from all of the pledge classes of the year is presented by its author at the Founders Day Banquet. This year two such papers were honored at the banquet, one by Tom Hopkins and one by Bill Jones. Last year’s recipient of the “Out- standing Actor of the Year” trophy, Delano Driver, is at present per- forming in his first and last ECC Shakespearean production, “Romeo and Juliet.” Mr. Driver, who has been a valuable asset in all fields of dramatics, makes his final stage appearance at East Carolina Col- lege tonight in the Sylvan Theatre. Bubba has undertaken a role in practically all of the major playhouse During his first two years at EC, he portrayed characters in “Detective Story,” “Pygmalion,” “State of the Union,” “Mr. Roberts,” “Cinderella,” “Aladin and the Magic Wesley Players Present Play “When Shakespeare’s Gentlemen Get Together,” a one-act play will be presented by the Alpha Zeta Chapter of Wesley Players, on May 13 in the AZ Room at the Methodist | Student Center. productions. The play is a burlesque on several of Shakespeare’s leading characters. Hamlet, Romeo, Antony and Othello call on Shylock to borrow money and to ask advice on how to control wo- | men. Hamlet has wed the mad Ophel- ia and she is making him The Mel- ancholy Dane in every sense of the word. Romeo has married the fair Juliet and her extravagances are breaking him. Cleopatra’s dressmak- ing bills and money for her jewels are driving Antony to bankruptcy. And Othello is jealous of Iago, who he feels certain is winning Desde- mona away from him. The cast includes: Romeo, Smitty Haislip; Hamlet, Walter Johnson; Othello, Ed Lancaster; Shylock, Jim Lanier; Antony, Bill Mitchell; Petru- chio, Jim Ballard. Barbara Wilson is director of the play. Admission is 15¢ for students and 25e for adults. ' Delta Sigma Pi Monors Brothers The Delta Zeta Chapter of Delta Sigma Pi held a dinner and dance May 2 honoring twelve new brothers. For the new members, the dinner climaxed a month-long pledge period which included “Help Week.” New brothers admitted to the professional business fraternity were as follows: Tommy Reese, Buddy Kilpatrick, Boh- by Seate, Maynard Keith, Bill Por- terfield, John Burlson, Lloyd Lee, Charles Lee Smith, Ted McGee, Jim Thrope, John Redecki, and Johnnie Churchill. * Tommy Reese was presented a trophy designating him outstanding pledge of his class. “The trophy was a reward for his conscientious attitude and willingness to work displayed during the pledge period,” said presi- dent Edgar Delmar. The entire class entertained the group during the evening with a skit prepared for the occasion. Delmar was also the recipient of a plaque from W. W. Howell, facul- ty advisor. Delmar was voted Delta Sig of the year at a recent meeting by the members. In addition to a large turnout of student brothers, several alumni members were present for the event, as well as a member from the fra- ternity chapter at the University of North Carolina. dents were selected on the basts of scholarship and leadership. Fitzhugh Duncan, Vice President and Treasurer of East Carolina College; and Harold McGrath, a member of the business faculty, were initiated as honorary members.

Lamp,” and “Antigone.” During his junior year Mr. Driver's successes included “House of Con- nelly,” “Teahouse of the August Moon,” and “The Moon is Blue.” This year he has done four plays, “Potting Shed,” “Death of a Sales- man,” “Caine Mutiny Court Mar- tial,” Greenville Little Theatre Pro- duction; and the latest, “Romeo and Juliet.” When asked what he considered to be his favorite roles, Bubba in- cluded four: Willy Loman in “Death of a Salesman,” “Captain Queeg in “Caine Mutiny Court Martial,” En- sign Pulver in “Mr. Roberts,” and Mercutio in “Romeo and Juliet.” In explaining his first choice, Bub- ha concluded, “The depth of the role of Willy Loman and the range it required enables one to gain a val- uable experience in that type of play.” Concerning his “Mr. Roberts” role, Mr. Driver said, “Ensign Pul- ver was'a grand experience in com- edy and I found valuable training in comedy portrayal and delivery.” Workshop Plays Besides acting in major produc- tions, Driver has portrayed roles in eleven workshop plays including a cutting from “Hatful of Rain,” Broadway success, with the “Com- mon Glory” Company. He has di- rected such plays as “The Moon is Blue,” “Moonclaf Mugfard,” “Dust of the Road,” “Two Crooks and a Lady,” and “The Monkey’s Paw.” “My father was in vaudeville,” ex- claimed Bubba concerning his in- terest in the theatre, “and T’ve al- ways been interested in entertain- ing, but became interested in acting when I first eame to ECC, I haven’t been out of a play for over three weeks since then. It’s a merry way,” smiled Bubba, “to spend your college time. It is time consuming, but the satisfaction is something you feel even if you can’t exactly put your finger on.” For the past two years Bubba has spent his summer vacations in out- door drama in Virginia. The 1957 season was spent at the Barksdale Memorial Theatre, Hanover, Virgin- fa in “To Rise One Day” and last summer he was John Adams in “The Common Glory” in Williamsburg, Virginia. In June he plans to return to Williamsburg, this time as Pat- rick Henry. Driver has attained many acting honors during his college career, be- ginning with the Most Promising Newcomer Award in the playhouse, his freshman year. While in his sec- ond year with the playhouse, he won several awards including: Best Sup- porting Actor, Best Director, Most Improved Actor and the Best Por- trayal of a Character. Last year he managed to cop the Most Improved Actor Award for the second consecutive year and also the Most Valuable Playhouse member award. As a junior he also served as president of the Playhouse. = When asked what he considered By PAT HARVEY to be the best play EC had put on since he has been here, Bubba grinned and said, “I’m prejudiced; I ‘Death of a Salesman’, ” Being the accomplished and ex- perienced actor that Bubba has been rcclaimed, he was requested to tell the readers who is his favorite actor. “Marlon Brando,” exclaimed Bubba, is a genius in his field, in my opin- ion. Some people may say that I’ve just got stars in my eyes, but, never- theless, he’s still tops in my book.” eems that no matter how many an actor has performed in, he will manage to pull a ‘boner’. Bub- ba’s embarrassing moment came in one of his latest plays, “Caine Mu- tiny,” when in the silent courtroom, “I accidentally dropped one of the all-important steel balls.” How any student could manage to do as many plays as Bubba has work- ed in and still have time for other school activities should put other students to shame, His. range of col- lege activities takes in quite a bit of territory. Besides four years in the pley- his activities include presi- dent of the sophomore class, four years in the SGA, three years in the Cirele K Club, membership in Lamb- da Chi Alpha Fraternity, Creative Writers Club for two years, Enter- tainment Committee, Dean’s Advis- ory Council, and the Ring Committee of which he is chairman this year. This year Bubba was elected to the position of vice president of the SGA and when president Mike Kats- ias was unable to finish his term, Mr. Driver stepped into his position until the election of next year’s pres- ident, Dallas Wells. Dr. J. A. Withey, who is the di- rector of the playhouse and has worked with Bubba in most of his plays, said, “I remember the first time I worked with Bubba. He had a small role and didn’t seem to think it was necessary for him to show up for rehearsals until the lat- ter part. But since then he has be- come more conscientious. He has in- ereased his comprehension in con- centrating solely on the character he is portraying. I have noticed that in ‘the last year or so, he never Jets a role alone and keeps working with it,” stated Dr. Withey. “For the professional theatre,” continued Dr. Withey, “he has the quality of authority on stage, which is absolutely necessary when performing. I think he did his best as Willy Loman in ‘Salesman’.” pick house, Driver Climaxes Dramatic Career In Shakespearean Tragedy Concerning his current role in “Ro- meo” Dr. Withey believes that, “the scene in which he dies is excellent.” Future Plans When requested to state his fu- ture plans Bubba said, “I hope I'll be acting for a living if the gods are with me.” To the question, “What medium do you think offers the best opportunities for young actors?”, Bubba believes that, “the other mediums fail to offer that special sesthetic contact that live theatre has.” ESSO Will Offer Driver Courses Twenty-five scholarships of $50 each are available to college teachers without experience in the field of driver education who wish to partici- pate in a Driver Edueation Seminar for College Instructors on campus June 22-June 27.

Facilities and Money | ! 1! No matter how hard the Student Government (Association works, no matter how hard the Director of Physical Education and his staff work, the proper job cannot be done without the facilities and the money to run the program as it should be. We at East Carolina need a large open field which can be used for touch football, softball and minor sports in the intramural program. But the field would have to be lighted and used at night to make the program a success. Students will respond to the playing times of 7 and 9 P.M. much quicker than they will to the times of 3 and 5 P.M. Anyone who wishes to question any part of the statements concern- ing our needs for intramurals can do so simply by talking to those students who have participated during the past two quarters and the present one. They have known of the needs for quite some time. So have other faculty members and college administrators here but it appears that the North Carolina Budget Commission will not even recommend funds to maintain our college’s absolute needs, much less approve any request so radical as a large lighted field for intramural sports. As our campus becomes more crowded and expansion comtinues, the sad plight of intramurals for men and women students will take a turn for the worse next year.

Practically every college coach in North Carolina and Virginia desired the playing talents of Cotten Clayton, highly touted basketball star of Zeb-Vance High School, to be used at his college. Clayton is a 6 foot 3 inch hardcourt standout who managed to average near 30 points per game for his past two years in high school. The Henderson athlete is also a top baseball performer.
