Belk, speaking for the committee, said, “Your committee representing the trustees, faculty and alumni un- ‘nimously recommends that Dr. Leo W. Jenkins, dean and vice president, be elected president of East Caro- lina College. Actually Dr. Jenkins hes been in training for this position during the past twelve years.

Meyer, Con- gressman-at-large from Vermont, will be the sixth guest lecturer of the Danforth Foundation. Congressman Meyer is a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. He will jecture in Joyner Auditorium at the library next Monday and Tuesday nights. The titles of these lectures “The Possible Price of Peace and Progress’ and “The Problem that We Face with the U.SS.R.” syndicated article on Con- gressman Mever, Marquis Childs (who will speak later in the Danforth series of lectures) praised Meyer for his emphasis on the individual. “He the lonely representative of an American tradition, and particularly a New England tradition, that goes a long way. back—protest, non-con- formity, the right of the individual and his conscience over that of all collective and corporate rights, in- cluding the State,” said Childs. Congressman Meyer was born in Philadelphia, Pa., and was an honor graduate of the School of Agriculture of Pennsylvania State College with a B.S. degree in forestry. Meyer has spent much of his life working in forestry and soil conservation, and he went to Vermont to work with the Soil Conservation Service there. In 1951 he entered private practice as a consulting forester and became ex- ecutive director of the Vermont For- est and Farmland Foundation. Congressman Meyer has held re- sponsible positions with the Wildlife Society and the Society of American Foresters. He has likewise been ac- tive in the American Civil Liberties Union, the Boy Scouts of America, the 4H Club, and the Vermont Farm Bureau. Meyer began his Congres- sional career on Nov. 4, 1958 when he was elected to the 86th Congress. are: In a Truesdale, Avery, Turner Star ECC Playhouse To Present Broadway A young teenager’s diary of her) war experiences proved to be of more importance than her own amusement when it became the basis for the play, The Diary of Anne Frank. Now the East Carolina Playhouse tries its skill with the Broadway drama which opens on January 28. The play's action occurs in the attic of 2 Dutch home, where eight people spend over two years away from the outside world. Their mere existence depends on never being dis- covered by the enemy, the Nazis. Anne Frank, the youngest of the inhabitants and the author of the celebrated diary, is portrayed by Playhouse amateur, Juanita Trues- dale. Anne seems to be the only mem- ber who is still happy ‘and excited with life itself. Anne’s family is composed of an understanding mother and loving fa- ther, Ben Avery, another newcomer, and Leigh Dobson, last seen in My Three Angels, and her older and quieter sister, Margot enacted by Joanne Eagles, who appeared in the freshman play, The Night Club. The other family includes ‘Anne’s first -and last -love, Peter Van Daan portrayed by Albert Turner, with Dorning Jenkins and Jim Roper cast as his parents. The remaining recluse is Dr. Dussel, David Thrift. Doris Robbins and Gerald Harrell fill the roles of Miep Gies and Mr. Kraler, helpers to the refugees. Dr. J. A. Withey is directing his first production of the year and Drama James Brewer acts as technical dir- ector with Rose Marie Gornto work- ing as his assistant and head of the scenery department. The stage manager’s position is being handled by Elizabeth Smith and her assistant, Bob Gooden. Head- ing the committees are Pat Hack- worth and Nancy Collings, house; Bill Bowen, properties; Susie Webb, costumes; Doris Robbins, publicity ; and Bill Faulkner, lights. The Broadway version starred Su- san Strasburg, who has since gone to Hollywood for such movies as “Cobweb” and “Picnic.” In 1959 Millie Perkins made her debut in the mo- tion picture under the same title, which was recently nominated for the New York Film Critics Award.

We recommend him te you in full confidence that he is man to guide and direct East i to greater maturity, schol- and service for the state.” Henry Oglsby, another member of the nominating group said, “I would like to endorse what Mr. Belk has said people from across the state have recommended Dr. Jenkins . If we took two, three, or more months, or even another year we sould not do as good in finding a man.” Charles Larkins, the third mem- of the committee representing the board was absent from the meet- ing but sent a telegram endorsing Dr. Jenkins for the post. br. E. R. Browning, a faculty rep- resentative on the committee in an advisor capacity commented, “My been to interpret to the ommittee the opinion of the staff . their decision is as unanimous decision could be.” Another advisor to the committee, 4.

Frazell, who represented the alumni said, “Eighty per cent of th I talked to throughout the state are in favor of Dr. Jenkins.” Following the report by the com- mittee, board .nember Fred Willets made the motion to aecept the cam- ber k has sé Number 12 enkins EC President ay mittee’s report and nominated Dr. Jenkins fer president. Carl Goerch, who seconded the motion, said, “I think we would be neglecting our duty to the college if we don’t accept this man.” After the second another board member, James Whitfield, state edi- tor for the News and Observer, sug- gested that Dr. Jenkins leave the room during the discussion. The dis- cussion, which lasted only a few minutes was interrupted briefly when Belk objected to making public the list of names considered for the job. The list was shown to the board members who wished to see dividually. Following the discussion, of the Board J. H. ealled for a vote and Dr. Jenkins was unanimously elected. Upon re- entering the room, the new president asked those present to join him in a prayer for guidance in his job. President Jenkins who will be in- augurated in the spring, has been associated with the college for the past twelve years. He came here in 1947 as Dean of Instruction and be- came Vice President in 1955. He holds degrees from Rutgers, Colum- bia, and earned his Doctor of Educa- tion degree at New York University. He has also done post-graduate work at Duke. He is past president of the North Carolina Education Assn. Division of Higher Education, president of the North Carolina Assn. of Academic Deans, and serves on the Governor’s committee for Better Schools and the State Board of Higher Education. He is a Major in the U.S. Marine Reserves and served in World War II at Guadaleanal, Guam, and Iwo Jima. He was awarded the Bronze Star and two Presidential Citations in the Pacific. SEE PAGE 4 it in- chair- man Waldrop Sealine Appoints Dr. Horne As East Carolina Registrar Dr. John H. Horne, associate prof- essor of education at East Carolina College, was appointed Monday as Registrar and Dtrector of Admis- sions of the college and will begin his duties immediately, announced President Leo W. Jenkins of the col- lege. Dr. Horne, a faculty member at East Carolina since September 1957, succeeds Dr. Robert L. Holt, who be- came Dean of the College last week. Appointment of a dean and a regis- trar follows the election of Dr. Jen- kins, former dean and vice president, to the presidency of East Carolina. Speaking of Dr. Horne’s appoint- ment, Dr. Jenkins said, “Since the transition between the high school and the college is a difficult one, it is imperative that the position of director of admissions be filled by a person with a thorough understand- ing both of the college and of the high school. Dr. Horne through his experience as a high school teacher and principal and a college faculty member is eminently qualified to carry out his new duties.” Three times a graduate of the University of North Carolina, Horne holds the A. B., the M. A. and the Ed.D. degrees from the institution. His major areas of study there were administration and supervision in the secondary schools and guidance. Since 1936, Dr. Horne has been connected with schools and colleges in this state. He began his career as an educator at the Grainger High School, Kinston, where he taught chemistry and physics for six years. After a year as principal of the Polkton High School, he returned to Kinston as principal of the Grainger High School, a position which he held for the ten years preceding his join- ing the East Carolina faculty in 1957. He taught at Appalachian State Teachers College during the summer sessions of 1955 and 1956. During World War Ii he served with the 90th Infantry Division, 315th Combat Engineer Battalion, in the European Theater of Operations. He was awarded six campaign stars, the Bronze Arrowhead for the Nor- mandy Invasion, the Purple Heart, Bronze Star, and Silver Star. Dr. Horne participates in a num- ber of education organizations and activities both in and out of the state. He is immediate past presi- dent of the East Carolina unit of the North Carolina Education Associa- tion and a member of the State Legis- lative Committee of the association. On the North Carolina State Commit- tee of the Southern Association of Colleges and Seeondary Schools, he is one of two college representatives in the eight-member group. He is a member of the Southern Council on Teacher Education and, with Dr. Douglas Jones of the edu- cation department, is co-sponsor of the East Carolina Student National Education Association. At East Carolina he is president of the college chapter of the national honor society Phi Delta Kappa. He serves as a member of the Curri- culum Committee and as a member of the Committee for Gifted Students. Dr. Horne is a member of the SAE social fraternity and of the Green- ville Loyal Order of Moose. He be- longs to the Immanuel Baptist Church of Greenville and teaches the Men’s Bible Class. SGA Discontinues May Day Activity A motion was passed that May Day will not be celebrated at East Carolina College this year. S. G. A. President Dailas Wells said, “During the present administration it has been the policy to try to obtain for the students the very most for their money.” The Student Senate feels that in past years there has not been enough interest in this event to nrerit the money being spent on this gala weekend. “Last year very few people attend- ed May Day and there was consider- able expense both to the S. G. A. and the girls participating in the court,” explained Wells. The S. G. A. realizes that May Day adds much color to any campus, however, due to our increasing size and over- crowded Spring calendar schedule, attendance in the past few years has steadily diminished, he says. Taking all this into consideration, the S G. A., after much debate, un- animously voted to dispose of May Day for this year. If, in the future, the Student Government wishes to re-establish this event, it can be easily done. PAGE TWO Leader Well Qualified For New Position Here Dr. Leo W. Jenkins, recently elected President of East Carolina College, hag be- hind him twelve years of administrative duties on this campus. No other man could be more qualified to lead the college through a new era of growth and achievement than our own Dr. Jenkins. A man of scholarship with a true phil- osophy of education, Dr. Jenkins must lead E.C.C. through a crucial period in which many people clamor that “East Carolina should stop growing and take her rightful place in North Carolina’s educational com- munity”; that “East Carolina has quanity and not quality’; that “East Carolina’s growth in numbers should be matched by its advance in academic prestige.” President Jenkins is the man to stand up to these attacks. We believe that though the curriculum may expand from the under- graduate school throughout the graduate school, it will also “tighten up” or grow tougher. “Crip” courses will be investigated. Testing measures and procedures will be improved. Teaching methods of some pro- fessors may even be questioned. And our new President is an avowed foe of the cheating jungle found here on our campus. With him as our leader, we may begin to clear up our cheating problem. Students should also be glad to know that Dr. Jenkins has promised more self- government and new freedoms in making decisions in student disciplinary cases. There will be more satisfaction throughout the cam- pus when controversial issues are decided by the students themselves. As do thousands of other people in the state, we expect great things from Dr. Jen- kins. We think that we will not be disap- pointed, not only because of his ability and past experience in the educational and the administrative fields, but also because he is interested in this college as a community of people, not merely as an institution of learn- ing. He realizes that the institution is the people within it. Senate To Investigate Cheating Practices Congratulations to Senator Barney West for his move for a senatorial investigating committee on cheating. This seems to be the year for Senate probes and exposes i.e. . . . quiz show scan- dals, payola, cranberries, etc. With lead stor- ies and blaring banner headlines, the find- ings of U.S. Senate investigating committees have lead not only to a more informed and less naive public, but also to a crackdown in unfair and unethical practices. If the E.C.C. Senate committee is not just a committee in name only and if the members are sincere in their efforts to com- plete a thorough investigation, this could be the most effective tool in helping to clear up the cheating problem on this campus. When the work of the committee is done, they will perhaps be the most informed group of persons on the subject of cheating here. Therefore, we mandate them to give a re- port of their findings to the student public via the newspaper and to make recommenda- tion for the solution of the problem. We pledge our support to the committee to expedite their work in any way that we may be of service. Already in an interview with an East Carolinian reporter, President Leo W. Jen- kins has claimed that he will work to end cheating. We know that he, too, will give his firm support to the committee. And to be sure, the rest of the admin- istration, and the faculty members are as anxious as students to get our problem cleared up. So with such a large backing, success is almost inevitable!

Jenkins. It has been rather interesting to watch the people around the cam- the past discussion different low tones, the the in- pus community during The little knotted up in month or so. groups, places, speaking in anxious pitch of voices. . . quisitive looks. Although it seems that from the beginning, all eyes have been foc- used on Dr. Jenkins, expecting im- mediate succession, this has been one of the most heated elections that has ever, in any way, been connected with East Carolina, to our knowl- edge. So, here again we see that not everything always meets the eye. To fill the shoes of Dr. Messick will be a difficult job. That is a known fact. Then the question arises ir, your mind, can Dr. Jenkins carry on, effectively, the program of prog- ress that has so far been brilliantly executed by Dr. Messick, Of course, we cannot foretell the future, we leave such things as that to the soothsayers and mystics. But we do, however, have an opinion as to what the future may ‘hold, and so therefore we say, in all earnestness, that Dr. Jenkins, as President of this institution may have “a rough row to hoe.” There is always opposition to a prominent figure. There is always somebody who stands on the back row and criticises, saying he would do thus and so if he were in that man’s position. There will also be pressure, the same kind of pressure that has given many a good man grey hair. Despite the conflicting elements that have arisen during his ascen- Prince Writes Article A special feature of the January issue of North Carolina Education is a full-l¢ngth article “So you want a language laboratory?” writ- ten by Dr. J. Roy Prince of the fac- ulty of the Foreign Language De- partment. The article describes the various types of language laborato- ries, how smail or how large they can be, how they work, what they will or will not do and gives advice for schools intending to establish one. North Carolina Education is the official magazine of the North Caro- lina Education A’ssociation, the or- ganization of North Carolina high school and college teachers. Dr. Prince will be director of the ianguage laboratory here. “We had hoped to have it in by December 1 past, but it now appears that it will be June before we can get it,” ex- plained Dr. Prince. By ROY MARTIN sion, it is our belief that the people who made the selection of Dr. Jen- kins knew much more about what they were doing than did the major- ity of the people who criticized their actions. The Board of Trustees and their selection committee made their choice with the best interests of the school first and foremost in their minds. And so, therefore, in our small way, we would like to extend to the rew President of East Carolina Col- lege, our heartiest congratulations, and a great big “good luck.” Integration Shows Surprising Results major—and credible—argument against racial in the is that it buys an uneasy at the expense of poorer education for both white and Negro students. The theory is that learning is slowed down for white students without being speeded up _ for Negroes. A current report of the Southern Regional integration schools equality Council quotes some spe- cifie facts on this subject made pub- lic earlier this fall by Omer Car- michael, superintendent of Louisville public schools. Mr. Carmichael wisely skirts the endless anthropological arguments about racial capacity. He states that he is only qualified to report on “achievement,” not “ability.” But in the field of “achievement,” he declares, there is no doubt as to what happened in Louisville: 1. It was found in 1956 that seg- regated Negro children were from 1% to 2 years behind their white op- posite numbers. 2. After two years of integration there was a “slight improvement for the whites; a substantial improve- ment for the Negroes.” In other words the gap created by unequal “separate but equal” facilities began to be closed—but not at the expense of the previously better educated white pupils. They too improved their learning—cause unknown. 83. Dr. Carmichael reports also that students remaining in all-Negro schools showed marked improve- ment. It cannot be proven that what hap- pened in Louisville would happen everywhere. But the fact that it hap- pened so decisively there should be cause for hope among the great ma- jority of good-hearted citizens who have been sincerely troubled about the quality of education after inte- gration begins in any community. —Christian Science Monitor Anti-Education Proves To Be False Concept Of Success By JASPER JONES People interested in the causes of cheating in American colleges should read “American Disgrace: College Cheating” in January 9 Saturday Evening Post. Although Dr. Jerome Ellison, the author of the article, oc- casionally gets carried away deseri- bing cheating techniques (“Data has been written on human skin—palm, or in the case of women students, inside the leg above the knee”), he makes it clear that “anti-education” is responsible for much cheating. Anti-education is a faith that per- vades institutions of higher educa- tion all over the country. It is a philosophy resulting from & tradi- tional American contempt of “book learning” and a general love of me- diocrity. The creed of collegiate anti- educationists is, “Be a good guy (or a well-rounded person it is now), dress well, know the datest campus slang, but don’t let anybody think you crack the books too mach, and it’s O. K. to cheat a little here and there to pull through.” The anti- educationists are always ready with a quick smile and a snide remark about the fools who study and work. Why slave away four years when you'll get through anyway? Though these people don’t usually discuss their cheating habits, it’s generally agreed that its fine to cheat if it means passing or making a good grade on a course “because after all, what good is history (or geography, or English) going to do me when I graduate and start work- ing for a living? The emphasis is on getting that diploma anyway; and when you’ve got it, nobody’s going to peek around and see how you got it. Anti-education is a faith of lazi- ness and opportunism and a false conception of personal success. It’s members are not only the campus bums but the hand-shaking, grinning people who waste time in “activities” and running for this position or that, depending upon the contacts it pro- vides, on the theory that college is where you learn to “get ahead.” Anti-educationists are slugs who drag class standards down and pre- vent interested students from prog- ressing as quickly as they should. Also many would-be honest students change their attitudes toward cheat- ing when they find that other stu- dents who are popular treat educa- tion lightly and jump at an oppor- tunity to cheat. It’s really very easy to become an anti-educationist. Fortunately, there is now 2 move- ment in America, especially on samll- er campuses, to de-glamorize the easy-going “College Joe” and re- emphasize the importance of scholar- ship. Though the movement is prog- ressing slowly, it is progressing, and we hope to see some of its progress at East Carolina College. New Year Provides Fresh Rain By PAT HARVEY The new year brought in the rain and left behind the days of bare heads and feet . . . Last week’s fad: wearing dirty rubber boots and car- rying wet umbrellas ... This week’s fad: wearing dirty loafers and carry- ing wet kleenexes. Sorority gals busily and frantically dash from meeting to meeting; ex- hausted but enthusiastic pledges fol- low behind clutching their rush rules; “non-interested” women laugh, ra- tionalize and wonder if they (the chucklers) are really as unpopular as they feel . .. Lately this question has arisen—“What is the SGA and exactly what kind of power do they have? (they ...uh.. . govern). Only a few students have been frightened by the recent consequen- ces of six poor “cheaters,” they’re only planning their tactics different- ly ... The English Club has recog- nized and is active, but gathering the members still remains a prob- lem...

The candidates are to be selected on the basis of conspicuous creative talent. These scholarships are com- petitive and will be awarded by a competent jury chosen by the “Lea- gue’s Committee on Scholarships” in each of the three creative fields re- presented by the scholarships. The following rules will govern the application for and administration of the scholarships. The accredited college will make the recommenda- tion of a candidate and apply to the National League of American Pen Women for its consideration on or before March 10, 1960, The college may apply for one or more of the scholarships but may not nominate more than one candidate for con- sideration in a given field. Each student candidate recommended must be a member of the graduating class of the college for the academic year, 1959-60. The amount of the scholarship ($1,000) will be paid to the institu- tion selected by the successful candi- cate, upon her appointment and ac- ceptance by that institution. After tuition and fees for each of the two semesters of the academic year have been deducted by the institution selected the scholar will receive through the institution the remainder of the fund in eight equal install- ments beginning October 1 and run- ning through May 1. With each recommendation for the scholarship the college or conserva- tory making it shall submit: (a) a signed application (b) a sample of the student’s work (c) a brief biography of the student, (d) the student’s signed application of intent to pursue advanced work at a selected institution.

He shed light on the scholastic standards they go up, down, or remain the same’ will be held responsible for the chea practices and ethical standards of over 4 students. How will he answer? It is to him the people of North lina will look when another “Old Ye (boy, that expression has been wor 1 hasn't it?) occurs. He is the one who will ap- peal for money to those who seem to } made themselves the guardians and nurse maids for the greater university. He is the one responsible for turning the high school hot rodders into a reasonable facsimile of a scholar. He must satisfy department heads (who, we understand, can be quite indignant at times), and listen to the grips of alumni. In short, he is no longer Dr. Jenkins . . . he is now “president of East Carolina Col- lege” and will be judged as such whether he is behind his desk, down town buying groceries, at home or away. ; In other words, he has been placed in the position of a hungry tomcat trying to eat a piece of raw fish in a room full of rocking chairs. He’s going to have to be pretty alert. Now if that cat fools around with all those rocking chairs long enough, he'll get himself in a clumsy situation sooner or later. But if he’ll just quietly pad over to one cor- ner and work on that piece of fish (in a man- ner fitting to a hungry tomcat) he'll make much more progress. Those rocking chairs will take care of themselves anyway. And so this week we tip our hat to a man with his hands full.

Margaret was sort of a mess but she sure could make beaded moe s -y day she whipped up a brand-new pair of beaded moccasins for Walter, which were 80 gorgeous that all the Indian maids on the reservation grew giddy with admiration. Well, sir, Margaret got pretty tense about all the girls making eyes at Walter and one night they had a terrible quarrel, Walter flew into a rage and slapped her on the wrist, whereupon she started crying like all get-out and went home to her mother and never came back. “Good riddance!” said Walter, but alas, he soon found out how wrong he was, for the Indian maids were not really in- terested in him, only in his moccasins, and when he stopped showing up with a new pair every day they quickly gave him the yo-heave-ho. Today he is a broken man, sitting all alone in his tepee and muttering ancient Ute curses.

Jensen Announces Changes In WWwWS Broadcasting Schedule “The student body of East Caro- lina College will hear many changes the programming of Campus Radio Station, WWWS, as the station begins its new programming with the ‘Soaring Sixties’ in mind,” says stat- lon manager Rudd Jensen. This new program operation is slated to begin January 17, at 3:00 p.m. Jensen announced that the campus station will be in operation 20 broad- cast hours per weekday, beginning at 6:30 a.m. and ending at 2:00 a.m. The station will begin a new Sunday program schedule this Sunday at 3:00 p.m. and will continue to broad- east until 2:00 a.m. In conjunction with the new pro- gram schedules WWWS_ announces that any student, faculty member, or interested person who wishes to sub- mit an appropriate title for the new program to be heard from 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m, each weekday may do so by sending his suggestion to “Name the Program Contest,” in care of the station in the Joyner Library Build- ing. The person who selects the best in title for the program will receive two long playing albums as an award. Because of crowded seating condi- tions at the recent Pirate home bas- ketball games, campus radio will broadcast all remaining home basket- ball games in 1960. Veteran Sports- caster, Jim Balance will do the play- by-play, and Kirk Bryant will handle color at halftime. Campus radio will broadcast tonight’s contest between the Pirates and Quakers of Guilford College. Broadcast time will be 7:55 p.m. “This year stress will be put upon better collegiate broadcasting for the students whom the radio station serves,” claims Jensen. The sta- tion’s programming will remain the same except for the addition of many new features, such as singing station breaks and personalized messages about the programs presented on campus radio. Student service announcements and student service programs will also highlight the new “Soaring Sixties” program format beginning this Sun- day.

Rush Closes For | T hree Students Attend Christian Conference Nancy Alford, Frosty Smith and Dixie Wilson recently returned from the 18th Ecumenical Student Confer- ence on the Christian World Mission. They attended the quadrennial conference of the World Student Christian Federation, formerly Wor- ld Student Volunteer Movement, from December 27 to January 2 in Athens, Ohio on the campus of the University of Ohio. More than 3600 students repre- senting 77 countries other than the United States were in attendance at the inter-racial, inter-denominational conference. “The Sign of Jonah,” a drama, was presented by Union Theological Seminary of New York City. This play pictured the guilt of mankind, his trial and the verdict “guilty.” Other real true-life dramas’ were presented which depicted some of the frontiers discussed at the conference. Each day of the conference was characterized by a Biblical address by Bishop Lesslie Newbigin, missionary to India; festival of Nations pro- gram where each country presented their native folk songs, dances and dress; emphasis upon one of the nine different frontiers by an outstanding person in each particular frontier and reports from students who had experienced these frontiers; fireside discussions which included education, singing of Negro spirituals, discus- sions of customs and conditions in ether countries and more than one- hundred other topics. Music for the conference was furnished by a 140 voice international choir. Dr. Kenneth Scott Latourette, pro- fessor at Yale University, speaking of technological upheavel told the ‘tudents that the scientists who made all the modern inventions “seem un- able to control them.” As he com- pared the U.S. with conditions in other countries he asked, “Why should we in this country work only 30 hours a week and enjoy the high- est standard of living while those in other countries work 60 hours and barely survive?” Dr. Kermit Bby of the University of Chicago discussed the effect of an agricultural and fac- tory way of life and others in terms of the technological upheavel in US.
