Again Features Art Work Winter Issue Of ‘Rebel’ Includes Many Freshman Works By PAT HARVEY by Gail Cohoon, C. W. Warwick, Pat Smith and Charles Davis’ will also be among the creative portions of the winter issue. Popular fiction and non-fiction novels will also be reviewed by Dr. Edgar Hirshburg, Dr. Frances Ad- ams, Dr. James Poindexter, Bryan Harrison, and Fred Ragan. Music lovers should appreciate the music editorial by Joanne Eudy. This vnusual editorial was prepared as a comparison between rock and roll and classical music. Art work, as always. plays an im- portant role in the Winter issue. Ar- tistie efforts will include charcoal jrawings, etchings, wood cuts, wood engnavings and pen and ink draw- ins. Contributing works in this de- partment are Al Dunkle, Kay Mc- Lawhon, Larry Blizzard, Emily Neal, Rose Marie Gornto and James Smith.

Although the application response to the scholarship has been “very en- thusiastic,” all students seriously in- terested in foreign study|should apply for registnation Mrs. Perry added. Applicants so far have come from the Departments of Art, English, Foreign Language, Home Economics, and Social Studies. The recipient of the scholarship award will be chosen by a selection committee of the A.A.U.W. composed of college faculty and townspeople. The winner wil! be selected from a group of finalists who will be inter- viewed by committee members. “Although scholarship is the prime requisite in the competition, students should not be discouraged from ap- plying for this award beoause they feel that their scholastic record is not of the highest possible. Person- ality, character, and variety of inter- est are also important,” commented Mrs. Perry. The ‘A.A.U.W. scholarship award is part of a program of this organi- zation designed to emphasize the im- portance of foreign study. The As- sociation realizes that though for- eign study is the dream of many stu- dents, the means of going abroad are often not available, she said. Also, students often lack information re- garding foreign study and do not know where to go to obtain this in- formation. In the opinion of this organization, encouragement of students who wish to study abroad is of great import- ance. A.A.U.W. feels that it is a val- uable means of international under- standing, Mrs. Perry added. As E.C. President Dr. Leo W. Jenkirs says, “In uhderstanding and knowing people of different coun- tries there is no substitute for talk- ing with, meeting and living with thém in their own countries—in their own homes. The G.I.’s have done more to foster good will and inter- national understanding among peo- ples of the world than any number of conferences could have will done.” PRE-REGISTRATION SET Pre-registration will be held during the week of February 8- 12. Please check with your major advisor or departmental bulletin board for specific instructions. Pre-registration is a definite part of the total registration program. Everyone who plans to be in attendance during the Spring Quarter must pre-regis- ter. If you do not plan to be here during the Spring, please bring this fact to the attention of your major advisor.

Job Opportunities Dr. James H. Tucker,. Director of Personnel and Placement, Number 14 Committee Announces pring Musical Plans “After much deliberation for a suitable vehicle for our musical comedy of 1960, we finally selected the smash hit, Annie Get Your Gun,” | commented Donald Hayes, director of this year’s musical. “For the first time a musical comedy will be pre- sented for four consecutive nights, instead of three,” said Mr. Hayes. “We feel that this particular show will pack them in every night.” “Annie Get Your Gun can be no- thing but a success as far as talented musical taste is concerned, because the music and lyries were written by Irving Berlin, and it was first pro-| duced by Rodgers and Hammerstein back in 1946,” says Hayes. Newsweek commented about the . a hilarious comedy. The gags have a spontaneous quality musical, “ about them, and the show’s pace is} f fast and even.” Time wrote, “ . a great big follow-the-formula, fetch-the-crowd musical. Annie Oakley, the sharp- shooting whiz of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show, became a synonym tary theatre tickets (because they and the gal whose name | for complimen- |: were punched with holes.) An illiter- ate Ohio lass, performing miracles | with a squirrel rifle, she is snapped up by Buffalo Bill, falls in love with the male sharpshooter of the troupe, (portrayed by Ray Middleton in the original cast) and unfortunately for bis affections, she shoots better than he does. But on good time Cupid’s bow wins out over Annie’s gun.” Some of the hit songs from the Irving Berlin score are: “You Can’t Get a Man With a Gun”, “There’s No Business Like Show Business”, “They Say Its Wom *rful”, “The Girl That I Marry”, “Anvthing You Can Do, I Can Do Better”, and “Doin? What Comes Natur’lly.” Jerry Powell, co-chairman of the productions committee said, “Annie Get Your Gun is a robust, colorful, fun-filled show which can be nothing short of a success. The dates for the roduction have been set for April 9,” added Powell. “We're expect- ing a large number of people for try-outs.” | “This show has a tremendous cast, colorful costumes, and lots of parts,” |exclaimed Jerry Van Dyke, other co- Construction Commences For Alterations To Renovation of the North Cafeteria | at East Carolina College and ex-j} tensive alterations in the Flanagan classroom building have begun on the campus here. Contracts for the work, according to Vice President and Business Manager F. D. Duncan, show a total cost of $112,854 for the cafeteria and $145,908 for the Flana- gan building. The interior of the North Cafeteria, oldest dining room on the campus, will be rebuilt and air conditioning will be installed. Waod construction will be replaced with fireproof ma- terials. :A new acoustical ceiling and terrazzo floor will be added. The entrance to the cafeteria on the South side will be closed and a new entrance constructed on the West side of the building so that cafe- teria lines may form at each end of the dining hall. Plans call for the addition of a lobby and rest rooms. Equipment will include two units of stainless steel cafeteria service counters. Modern lighting fixtures will replace those now in use. Alterations in Flanagan building were necessitated by crowded condi- tions in classrooms and laboratories. Space for expansion of the Science, the Home Economics, and the Indus- trial Arts departments was provided last fall in Flanagan when the de- partment of business moved to the new Raw! building and the Geography department was relocated in the Gra- ham building. Conversion of parts of Flanagan to new uses will involve extensive changes.

WWWS Receives News Machine Campus Radio WWWS is adding a national hookup news machine to its equipment and will begin broadcast- ing national news February eight, reports station manager Rudd Jenson. The machine, which is being furn- ished by L & M cigarettes, will re- ceive news releases from United Press International news service. Campus Radio will be able to util- ize the new service in bringing up to the minute news happenings to the student audience, as well as to the FM audience. The station planned five evening newscasts daily at 4:55, 8:55, 9:55 and 10:55. The cost of the UPI news machine service will be approximately dollars per week. Station Manager Jenson stated this week, “Efforts to get the news last year were started by former station manager Jimmy Kirkland, but due to the involvement of many unsolved details until recently we were unable to receive the machine. “We at Campus Radio are very pleased with our national advertisers selection to allow us to receive the UPI news machine.” has Prospective Teachers Eligible Prospective high school teachers are invited to apply for the fourteen $1500 Carnegie Graduate fellowships offered by the George Peabody Col- lege for teachers. The Carnegie Program serves to identify and encourage candidates for high school teaching who are superior in leadership, character, and ability. Operating in cooperation with selected colleges and universi- ties the program provides the fol- lowing opportunities: (1) training in professional education at the South’s leading teacher-education _ institu- tion, (2) continued work in subject areas which are taught in high schools or which support the prepa- ration for teaching snd (3) a plan of preparation for teaching which Wells Announces Fund Safeguard “Ten thousand dollars of idle money has been invested by the S.G.A. in the Savings and Loan As- sociation as a safeguard for the Student Loan Fund,” stated Dallas Wells, S.G.A. president. This money is an accumulation from the activity fees of past years and has been in reserve in case of any emergency. The amount will earn four hundred dollars yearly in divi- sends. These dividends will be used either to build up the Loan Fund, or as the S.G.A. at the time so design- ates. “The money will be much more than adequate to meet any emergen- sy which may arise,” assured Mr. Wells. To avoid any promiscuous with- drawals, the faculty advisor of S.G.A. and the S.G.A. treasurer must make the withdrawal and then, only with the written authority of the SGA president. “This action is in keeping with the present SGA _ administration’s policy of getting the utmost for the money and for the students,” con- cluded Wells. For $1500 Graduate Fellowship leads to the master of arts degree. Those eligible are outstanding stu- aents currently enrolled as seniors or recent graduates interested in high school teaching. Students should not present a major in education, Dut one in a subject taught in high schools. Those applying should be ready to enroll at Peabody in Sep- tember, 1960. Preference is given to candidates with a strong liberal arts background. From one to three nominations will be sent in from the college. All students who meet the above require- ments may check with President Leo W. Jenkins or some other college of- ficial. No student may apply direct- ly to Peabody. All nominations will be made be- fore Mareh 1, 1960. Classes Begin At U.

The Governor’s comments appear- ed in The News and Observer, which quoted him as saying in a speech to the State Board of Conservation and Development, “Eastern North Caro- lina has no right to expect any sub- stantial economic development until it realizes that the cow has to be milked and fed seven days a week.” is fully realized that Eastern North Carolina has not been the leading section of the state in which industries have been es- tablishi their plants.

What was so amusing about the whole mess, was the fact that in the following day’s issue of The News and Observer, after the Eastern North Carolinians had retaliated to Governor’s attack, Hodges was quoted as saying, “I feel as close to Eastern North Carolina, its coast and its people, as I do to any section of the state.
