Participant In Varied Activities Speight Wins As graduation nears, many sen- iors will probably stop and look back on their past activities with a cer- tain amount of satisfaction. One such senior who indeed can well be proud of her four years at East Carolina, is Shirley Naves Speight. Mrs. Speight an Asheville, North Carolina native whose husband Bill is an E.C. alumnus, will be gradu- ated May 24 with a double major, English and Library Science. During her four years, Mrs. Speight has been an active partici- pant in the activities of the Student Government Association. As a junior, she was a member of the marching and concert bands, president of Jar- vis Hall, a member of the Women’s Judiciary, Dean’s Advisory Council, Library Club, and the S.G.A. This year, Mrs. Speight has served the S.G.A. as Points Committee Chairman, a member of the Dean’s Arvisory Council and representa- tive to the State Legislature. She has remained a member of both the marching and concert bands, and she has worked with Ike Collins as an English tutor. Also this year she became a char- ter member and parliamentarian of Delta Sigma Chi sorority. a mem- ber of the Inter-Sorority Council Department, SGA Awards By BETTY MAYNOR which she served as parliamentarian. and president of the Library Club. As a result of her accomplishments in these various activities, Mrs. Speight was awarded the Library Science departmental award, the English departmental award, an S.G.A. service award, and was se- lected a member of Who’s Who A- mong Students in American Uni- versities and Colleges. In commenting on the S.G.A., Mrs. Speight said, “I hope that the S.G.A. will be mé@re closely allied with the students and that more women will take an active interest in 8.G.A. ac- tivities. I feel that the Senate should think seriously about the N.S,A., be- cause in the main the campus can certainly benefit by the affiliation.” Concerning the more recently or- ganizéd groups on campus. Mrs. Speight commented, “I think the Dean's Advisory Council and the Kast Carolina Development Council are good organizations, especially if they will coutinue to be active. I feel that sororities can and will be a definite asnet to the social and political life of the campus.” In looking back over the past four years, Mra. Speight noted several oceurrences which she considered her | SHIRLEY SPEIGHT . . . entetanding outstanding memories: “Mike Katsi-| sonter. as, one of the best natural leaders I have ever known; the of sororities; later hours for wom en; the beer debate; the State Stu dent Legislature meeting that was “snowed out” after the delegation went all the way to Raleigh; the train trip by East Carolina sup- porters and the band to Portamouth, Virginia; and the establishment of the senate system.” —— establishment PAGE TWO Sm Discontentment Spreads Among The Chinese People By JAMES M. CORBETT The Communist Party in Red China to- day finds itself in one of the most trying periods it has experienced since gaining con- trol of that thickly populated country.

The physical plant of the college consist of approximately 130 acres and 25 buildings appropriate to the work of the college. Enrollment for the 1957-58 school year is in excess of 3700 and includes students from nearly all of North Carolina’s 100 countics and adjoining states. A sound general education program is offered ag the foundation on which specialized training may be based. Pre-professional training and Secretarial Science are also available. Students may take work in the following fields: Art, Education, Business Education, English, Foreign Language, Geography, Health and Physical Education, Home Economics, Industrial Arts, Library Science, Mathematics, Music, Paychology, Science, and Social Studies.

KATHRYN JOHNSON This year has flown by and with the publication of this issue, the term seems almost over for the EAST CAROLINIAN staff. We'll remember the year 1958-59 as the year when: East Carolina could boast of an- other North Carolina, Betty Lane Evans of Greenville. (Miss Evans is a music major as was FE.C.C.’s Miss North Carolina of two years ago, Joan Melton.) ».C.C. co-ed and Playhouse star Alice Ann Horne was chosen Miss Greenville. The McDaniel sisters, Carole and Jimi, kept the Homecoming Queen crown in the family, although un- fortunate circumstances almost caused Queen Jimi to lose hers. Kappa Sigma Nu Fraternity copped the prize for the best Homecoming float for the second consecutive year. As five national social fraternities stood and proud, sororities were established on a firm founda- “Old Yellow’ was raided and many students had a mid-term va- cation. For the first time in many moons mass meetings were con- Miss strong several ducted The Controversy” made the news in many state papers. With the NSA Carolina-Virginias Regional meeting on this campus, students became concerned with the intellectual climate on campus. Pulitzar Prize winner Peter Vie- reck and many other noted speakers appeared on campus sponsored by the Danforth Foundation Project. Under the direction of SGA Presi- dent Mike Katsias, the student gov- ernment program was expanded and became more active. Outstanding Playhouse stars Bubba Driver and Leigh Dobson entertained the students in many varied roles. As Porter's efigy hung from a tree, Coach Earl Smith was appointed new basketball coach. Fred Ragan and Stan Harper raised fuss about the elections pro- Wright Precinct. Elec- tions procedures began to improve steadily. “Kissing cedures in Some students thought the in- firmry was not doing the job as it the SGA looked into the matter and found that they were. Throughout the year freshmen stru through experimental classes on closed-circuit television. C.C. dropped out of the largest organization of students in the world when the senate voted to come out of NSA. For the first time E.C.C. had Ne- entertainment when the Cava- liers appeared on campus for an L.F.C. benefit dance. For the second time in three years, the E.C.C. swimming team won the NAIA Swimming Championship. Judy Hearne was chosen Southern Conference Theta Chi Dream Girl. Someone with “a definite accent” called to say there was a bomb in Austin Building. Classes stopped, and Officials searched, but the bomb was never found. For the first time since the elec- tion of Don Umstead, the veterans organized and got their man elected to the post of SGA president. And so another school year comes to a close. With one year of experi- ence behind us, we hope to give this campus a bigger and better news- paper with more complete and accu- rate coverage next year. Corrections In the article by Bob Johnson in last week’s EAST CAROLINIAN in- titled Organizations Prefer Freedom, the following errors were printed: Error—“At least two organizations are asking the SGA to cut them free.” Correction—No organization has asked the SGA to cut them free. Error—Each student in his four years pays $528.00 in activity fees to support the SGA we could save this amount. Correction—Each student pays $132.00 in activity fees to support all the entertainment programs on campus {ncluding the Playhouse, The FEAST CAROLINIAN, The BUCCA- NEBR, YMCA, YWCA, College Union, Campus Radio, Productions Committee (Kiss Me Kate), Identi- fication Card System, Handbook, Cheerleaders, Opera Theatre, The Rebel, and many more. Getting rid of the SGA would not save any of this money but would just mean that the students would no longer have the right and privilege of deciding through their committies, how the activity fee would be spent. Error—Charlie Dyson threatened the EAST CAROLINIAN with re- moving all their funds if they didn’t print his spite sheet. Correction—There is no officer in the SGA with the power to do such a thing even if he so desired. should; gled gro EAST CAROLINIAN Bird Watc ie ih ‘All’s Well That Ends Well’ THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1959 Cee worry ABouT, THE CAPIPUS # YC op, Hont ‘ He's A \ Spastic! oe / Accomplished Cast Performs Effectively In The Greatest During the intermission the FIRST night, as I sat there mumbling that this was a hideous comedy of errors even though the program said ROMEO AND JULIET on it, the edi- tor invited me to write a few words on this production for her hebdoma- dal. Vain fool that I am, I said I would. The following morning I re- pented me, of course, and saw that at best a reviews of THAT perform- ance, at least would indeed be much about nothing. Surely the tempest of outraged — sensibilities would head. Forsooth, I'd measure for measure; and frank, I feared the worst. “Nothing could be THAT bad on the second night (and this is not to mention the twelfth night!),” I said. Therefore, Shakespeare idolator and Playhouse buff that I am, like a pas- sionate pilgrim I made my way back to the Flanagan Sylvan Theatre for the second performance. This time there was no love’s labors lost; you might even say that it was “as you like it.” Mr. Laube was a befuddled Romeo; perhaps in too many instances he spoke his lines, both witty ones and tender ones, as if they might as well have been written in Bantu as in English. That he did the part well as he did is to the credit of a gentle- man and a scholar who evidently has had little acting experience. swirl get being about my Predictions For 1959-1960 y DR. FRANK HOSKINS Mrs. Garren’s Juliet was sensitive and intelligent; therefore it was be- lievable. Was reading a trifle too intense? I have always felt that ol’ Jule had the ability to laugh at herself. Moreover, why wasn’t Juliet en deshabille during the dialogue that followed hard upon the consumation of the marriage? \As it was, it look- ed as though Romeo were a mere family friend come to say goodbye. her Mr. Driver was, as usual, in com- plete command. It’s a pleasure to watch someone do something superb- ly, isn’t it? He, as Mercutio, and Mr. Heller, as Benvolio, understood Shakespeare’s intentions and acquitt- ed themselves most satisfactorily. Professor Rowe was funny and believable. Could he have worked just a trifle too hard at being Capulet? Mr. Craven was, as usual, excellent in the role of an old man in the part of Montague. Professor Chauncey did what she could with a role that simply was not written for her. I believe Shakespeare meant for Angelica to be an ample- bosomed, large-hipped, generous-der- riered Earth Goddess type. Miss Dixon was quite satisfactory as Lady Capulet. I am glad that she consented to make-up the second time. Of the rest, Bob Johnson, as Paris; Professor Withey, as Prince Escalus; Mr. Worrell, as Tybalt; and Mr. West, as Peter, deserve special men- Love Story Ever Told tion. It was my impression that the cast was in general an exceptionally accomplished one. The staged; the dance figures arranged ballroom scene was well- by Mrs. Laube, were a pleasure to watch. This scene added immeasur- ably to the tone of the production. It needed, however, more vandles for emphasis of the LIGHT and DARK imagery of the poetry. One followed hard upon another in fine fashion, and the cen- ter of attention moved from left to right to center with a pleasing change of pace. While the illumination was adequate, I feel that lighting could have been employed artistically more effectively for creation of mood and so forth. Seeing how successful were Friar Laurence’s scenes, in which there was no “tech” to speak of, one wonders why some of Juliet’s scenes could not have played more effectively, and believably, on the stage rather than on the balcony under the stars? I have recovered from the trauma caused by the first night and shall not soon forget the pleasure I found at the second performance. Congra- tulations to everyone who shared in the production. You can be proud in- deed! As old Shakespeare himself might have said (in fact he did say it), “All’s well that ends well!” scene Plan To Make Next Year A Different One; Be A Part Of ECC; Join The ‘Big 200’ Another year practically gone and students are vigorously stashing clothes and memories into suitcases and battered boxes. Thoughts con- cerning beach trips and lazy times are innermost in their minds. For- gotten are the unusual E,C.C. hap- penings which have made our col- lege an enjoyable as well as an edu- cational institution. What has occurred this year worth remembering? Well, let’s look back. There’s the athletic program. In basketball and football we managed to end the season with an excellent record. Considering the number of supporters who spent their precious time and energy clapping at the games, this was indeed a feat for the players. Then along came the shirtless boys who won the national collegiate swimming title. The students were so happy about this accomplishment that nobody showed to witness the team receiving the winning trophy. In our summer sports, tennis, golf, track, and baseball, the heroes have also performed before a practically empty house. Oh well, at least the letter-men are proud of themselves. The BUCCANEER staff composed of approximately ninety of EC's “gung-ho” workers crowded their wits together and produced a 400 page annual. Many hours were spent preparing this memory book, eo that By PAT HARVEY the students could flip through this precious book in twenty minutes, then voice their unfavorable com- ments concerning its contents. But one can mark this down in his note- book as nothing but human nature. So... “Death of A Salesman” was given this year and according to some very reliable sources, it was considered to be one of the most professional plays ever presented here. The playhouse gave several plays this year, some good, some fair. Several experienced actors are leav- ing to pursue their dreams as & ca- reer. Which brings to mind that the playhouse is losing several of its members and the percentage gained this year is not enough to equal its loss. There are many people who would enjoy theatre work, but use the practical exeuse that “we don’t have the time.” Unfortunately, they do not realize that the experience is valuable. The biggest deal that went through was the establishment of sororities, which really hit campus with a bang. Eight sororities have popped up and have done everything from selling sandwiches to painting benches. So- rorities have made their bid and are expected to be an even more im- portant part of our campus life next year. : Have we ever stopped to realize that out of a college of nearly 4000 students, only about 200 are inter- ested enough in their college to work for it. College is not just a place to attend class through the week and dash home for the weekend. College can be fun, as well as educational. Predictions “Next year things will.be differ- ent” is one of the most trite lines in our college lingo. Predictions come and go each year; some hit, some miss. Nevertheless, it’s fun to try. Predictions for ’59-’60: (1) Wells will shock the frat men and head an excellent SGA. — (2) Another issue concerning ber- muda shorts will hit the papers, but again will be vetoed. (3) The next campus check will catch more seniors than freshmen. (4) The REBEL will be bigger and better, because the staff will be big- ger-and better. (5) Next year’s musical comedy will have a more experienced cast. (6) Students will accept “Buc” as a mascot, rather than a waster-of- money. (7) Bubba Driver will be missed in the Playhouse. (8) Sororities will double in mem- bership, but will not go national. (9) EC enrollment will inerease by about 400 students. (10) Rainy days will increase also.

For the past year, I have assumed thé form of a columnist; that is, I have, for niné months, shed my academic armor periodically, and entered the EAST CAROLINIAN office to sit at my typewriter and pound my thoughts into little black letters for publication in this corner of the paper. Now, with my last fingernail chewe back to the knuckle, with my ash tray runnin over with exhausted Camels, and with m) thoughts that are as well organized as a Cul Seout pack at a panty-raid, I confess that | am mentally bankrupt. _At this time of year, all I can do is re- mininsce. ‘It doesn’t seem to have been eight months since we waded through scotch tape crepe paper, chicken wire, beer cans, and paper mache’ to watch our Homecoming floats tak« sundry shapes in the dusty Greenville tobacco warehouses. _ The cold midnight blue and the warm red tinsel of Christmas—the snow that speckled our hair and shoulders and covered the groun( and bowed the evergreens—the gnarled shrubs and the empty trees were a spiny brown and grey forever and a winter, until they changed = into their respective summer stand- ards. Spring came and made us sleepy and thirsty and now we want sun and sea and short-sleeved shirts. Now we want to throw our books and pencils in the Tar River and find the new friends we’ve made this year and the old friends we’ve known—find them and talk and listen, laugh and speculate. We talk and we remember the year’s best moments—the best laughs we had, the fears, the moments we shared that showed us how our lives are best lived—the times we realized = had real friends and would have them for ire.
