Pre- registration can be made into a per- janent registration, if they have a mind to accomplish this goal.” 5) (Entertainment series — “More attention should be given to campus- vide selection. The SGA should spend more money and get the big names!” (6) Lecture series—“I'm very in- terested in a free-thought lecture ies for East Carolina. Such men as Carl Sandburg can be induced to visit ur campus. I feel that the SGA can attract private interests, such as educational foundations, to bear the expense of such a program.” (7) Public Relations Committee— “The SGA could provide a valuable service to the school and the student body by serving as a liaison between pressure President Leo W. Jenkins ruled this week that music students who must practice on the organ in Austin bui'ding during periods one through eight may use only one string or one flute stop on each manual. The ruling came after recent pro- tests by faculty and students that the organ music was disturbing class- room lectures in ‘Austin building. President Jenkins said, “The future solution to this problem is a recoin- mendation that is being made to the Advisory Budget Commission and the (State Board of Higher Education that Austin Building be replaced with East Carolina and state legislators.” (8) Honor System—‘“There’s a need for student approval, but I’m not for an immediate vote on this issue. serious attempt to thoroughly edu- eate and publicize such a system should be the logical approach.” (9) Community affairs — “I want to see the SGA and Greenville city leaders form a permanent committee to develop better relations with the merchants for the students.” JIM SPEIGHT BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES: Speight is a native of Kinston. He has often been confused with Jim Speight, the football player. This Speight, however is a junior and his | field of major study deals with science. His SGA experience began this year with election to the position of Jones Hall president. This posi- tion led the way to Men’s Judiciary duty, Budget delegate representation at the North State Conference SGA and the State Student Legislature. A fraternity man, he has just been elected to serve as Historian for Kap- pa Alpha Fraternity. His remaining campus interest centered around the activity of the Circle-K Club. PLATFORM COMMENTS: “I’ve it a lot of thought and if elected, I'll work for the following goals: (1) Unlimited “T want to visit other schools and observe their systems for comparison. Then, Td like to see a suitable plan presented to the stration.” (2) Entertainment student-wide poll is taken, a presenta- tion could then be made to the Budget “ommittee before they make final ap- propriations. I a'so would like to see the SGA originate a quarterly sche- dule of planned weekend entertain- ments.” (3) Later Dorm Hours—“The hours women students to be in the dorm needs revising. We need to be more liberal for special occasions granting later permission. At Mere- dith College, the girls don’t have to te in on weekday nights until eleven o'clock.” (4) Registration orientation—“Tie SGA needs to sponsor an orientation reriod for the freshmen before they o through the maze of registering for the first time.” (5) publicizing the school should be pre- pared.

To make a comparison, this is like learning to use but one hand on a typewriter. Students should learn or- gan registration as well as control of swell pedals and it is obvious they cannot do it under these new restric- tions. But in like manner, we must realize that instruction in English, social studies, and mathematics is extremely handicapped if this regu- lation is not made. “We hope the proposed new con- struction will be approved so that in- struction in oo department will be the panhellenic IFC Ball.

President Jenkins Issues Ruling In Austin Organ Controversy handicapped.” The organ in question was built in Erie, Pennsylvania and then disman- tled and brought to East Carolina to be rebuilt in 1950. Installation in Austin building took over six months end was completed at a cost of over thirty thousand dollars. It was first played in July of 1950. The instrument is a three-manual, console of 3000 pipes. The largest ripe is 16 inches square and 17 feet long and the smallest is 1/4 of an ineh in diameter and 3/8 of an inch long. The pipes between these two extremes are made up of wood, met- al, and reed. — Traffic Regulation The East Carolina College Traffic Committee has announced that stu- dents who reside on campus and who own or hold possession of an auto- mobile must register that vehicle only in his or her name. This ruling is interpreted to mean that a student residing on campus with an automobile owned by him- self, parents, or relatives, will not be permitted to turn this vehicle over to another on-campus student for registration. Any student who is not the legal owner of a vehicle as outlined above, and who has Tegist- ered a vehicle on campus should have the proper owner report to the Hous- ing Office and correct the vehicle registration. PAGE TWO ‘Defender Of Rights’ Brews Trouble; Does He Dare Start A War? Last week the American Embassy in Ha- vana began quietly warning all Americans whose presence was not essential in Cuba to leave the country. At the same time Cuba's Institute of Agrarian Reform and the Ministry for the Recovery of Stolen Property confiscated three more United States-owned sugar mills valued at 10 million dollars. These actions followed a recent lecture given to the Cuban charge d'affaires by U. S. Secretary of Sfate Herter. Herter repri- manded the Cuban government after Castro charged that American saboteurs had blown up a French munitions ship in Havana har- bor. ‘ All this could be an indication that the Cuban situation is coming to a head. Castro has set himself up as a demigod . . . savior of the oppressed Cubans . . . champion of democracy. Through false propaganda and emotionally charged symbols he has become the “bearded Christ” of Cuba. Yet it seems strange that one so “holy,” such a “defender of rights,” such a “savior,” as Castro would allow such arbitrary seiz- ures of property. Does it not seem odd that a leader, who supposedly should have the best interests of his country in mind, would continually agitate and alienate the rela- tions of so powerful a neighbor as the U.S. Could this indicate that Castro has some ther powerful force behind him? Surely even such a renown soldier as Castro doesn’t intend to capture the United States alone. Yet he persistently baits the U.S. in an effort to cause a further breech in diplo- matic relations between the two countries. He is stockpiling arms and ammunition. He has openly negotiated with Soviet Russia and established trade relations with them. News reports say he has stirred Cuban sol- liers to such a frenzy that they have threat- ened to hang American citizens from Ha- vana lampposts. The American Embassy is afraid that street crowds in Havana will get out of hand and is making emergency prep- arations to evacuate American citizens. The U.S. Navy has prepared emergency plans to defend the Guantanamo Naval Base which t oceupies there. President Eisenhower has informed U.S. diplomats to begin a tougher policy toward Cuba. What is the next step? Verbal attacks and insults toward the U.S. have reached their limit. Will Castro dare to initiate a cold war with the U.S. which could and probably would lead to World War III? Castro's attempts at fighting and beard crowing have been successful, but his ability as a responsible leader has been demon- strated as something akin to a spoiled child. One temper tantrum from this brat could touch off a war that would turn the western world into a hell on earth. Not only are we faced with a “Cuban hornet’s nest” in our own back yard, but further south among other Spanish speaking peoples the word “gringo” is directed to- ward U.S. citizens in a manner which prac- tically indicates spitting. In Panama we are hated, and even though President Eisenhower returned smil- ing from his South American jaunt, we doubt the results of diplomatic conferences car- ried on in an atmosphere of tear gas and police clubs.

News Editor Letters To Editor: President Reviews Accomplishments For 1959-1960 SGA Dear Editor, My year as President of the Stu- dent Government Association is ra- pidly coming to a close. The purpose of this letter is to review the accom- pvlishments of the 1959-60 administra- tion. During the past year, our SGA has accomplished many things — from promoting « Student Book Exchange to writing a completely new Consti- tution. These activities or goals, as we prefer to call them, were achieved by the Student Senate with the co- operation of the faculty. The Student Book Exchange began operation the first of this year. At this Exchange, students may bring books that they wish to be sold, leave them, and collect the money from the sale at a later date. A completely non-profit organization, members of the Veterans Club handle all books. A Loan Fund has been set up for any student who desires a loan of not more than $26. Thirty days are per- mitted for payment of the loan; per- inission to receive a loan is granted by the Dean of Women and the Dean of Men. The Student Government sponsored dances after each home football game this fall for the first time. These dances were attended by a large per- centage of the students, who were admitted free of charge. The band for these social events was paid from SGA funds. A new minutes book was presented by this year’s Senate to the secretary to be used as a permanent record for the roll and minutes of each meeting. The book is well bound snd has enough pages to last for at least five years. Past business can be easily checked upon by anyone who so de- sires. wa For the first time, the Senate ask- ed that a football player’s jersey be retired in recognition of his outstand- ing service to the college. Upon this recommendation and the vote of the Athletic Council, the jersey of James Speight was retired. Homecoming was entirely a pro- ject of the Student Government. The parade, pre-game festivities, street dance, and Homecoming dance was planned by members of the Senate. A new Constitution was written by members of the Senate bringing sev- eral items up to date and complete- ly changing others which were a part of the old Constitution. The Consti- tution was passed by a large major- ity and is an achievement of which we were extremely proud. Throughout the year, the SGA has been honored by sponsoring several television shows over the local sta- tion. Members of the Senate have had the opportunity to appear on these and other programs. In the fall, the Senate voted to ad- mit all faculty members free of charge to the SGA _ entertainment series. The Entertainment Series sponsored by the SGA provides lead- ing entertainment for all students upon submission of their Student Identification Card. Among the out- standing entertainers for this year are: The Navy Band, Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians, New York City Ballet Company, and the Four Freshmen. Money for a Spring Music- al is granted to the Playhouse to produce some Broadway play which usually runs for three nights. Last Spring, “Kiss Me, Kate” was present- ed; this Spring “Annie, Get Your Gun” has been planned. Campus Clean-Up Week and High School Days were two events the SGA helped stage in order to aid the appearance of the campus and to help make the students from various high schools feel more at home. The SGA stressed Fire Prevention in an effort to make students more conscious of the hazards involved from fire. Seven delegates attended the North State Student Government Associa- tion at Elon College in December. Plans are being made for the Spring meeting of this Awsociation to be held om our campus. The endorsement of Dr. Leo W. Jen- kins for President of East Carolina College was passed at a Senate meet- ing immediately after the resignation of Dr. John D. Messick. (Recently a committee named Dr. Jenkins as East Carolina’s new president; we are proud to have endorsed him and feel that he was an excellent choice.) The Student Senate passed a reso- lution asking that a committee of students and faculty members be ap- pointed to study the problem of cheating on our campus. This com- mittee has been at work trying to work out the answer. In order to stimulate more interest in the intellectual climate on our campus, a program called “Battle of the Brains” was proposed. Competi- tion among the dorms, fraternities, and clubs will produce recognition BAST CAROLINIAN a It’s Law, Man! for campus intellects. Through the efforts of the Student Government and the faculty a traffic light will be erected at the entrance beside the College Administration Building by the fall. This administration is now work- ing hard to be elected the most out- standing Student Senate in the North State Conference. This award will be presented at the Spring meeting of the North State Student Government Association. This year’s SGA would like to chal- lenge the incoming administration to match their accomplishments and to go on to greater heights. It is my hope that students will take an active part in the coming election and elect officers who will represent East Carolina well. Many thanks to the people who have worked with me and to the students for making this year the most memorable one of my life. Sincerely, Dallas Wells, President Dear Editor: I am writing in reference to the editorial “Problem? Prejudice!” Where in the world did you get the idea that the Constitution states that “all men are created equal”? Maybe you should read the second paragraph in The Declaration of Independence. It seems to me from the various articles that I have read that “The East Carolinian” is really supporting the Negro side of the issue. Respectfully submitted, Janice Guyton. Dear Editor, I have read several times and with great interest and approval the art- icle on the Austin Organitorium which appeared in your March 10th issue. I would like to commend Jas- per Jones for writing and you for publishing it. It is my understand- ing that an attempt has been made to abuse and intimidate Mr. Jones for his vivid reporting of a rather dull situation. I wish you would find out if there is any basis for my understanding and report such in any one of the several dead corners of your publication. Be sure to as- sign someone with Mr. Jones’ writing ability to investigate this. Despite my approval of the article I perceived several weaknesses in it, among which is the proposed solu- tion that we move the classes out of the building. Now, Mr. Jones should have known that this would involve more expense and trouble than mov- ing the organ to another building-— say the basement of Napoleon’s tomb. More sensible than either of these would be to discontinue organ lessons from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for the next one hundred and three years, and al- low the building to revert to its for- mer status as classroom building. Lest some curiosity should arise as to how I arrived at the figure 103. let me explain. A mathematician friend of mine worked out this figure by means of a secret formula for fig- vring time probables in this partic- vlar area of human relations, and he states that “it will take exactly 103 years for us with our heads togeth- er, our shoulders to the wheel, our roses to the grindstone, our toes to the line, to stand together in this crisis and work our fingers to the bone morning, noon, and night, keep- ing to the narrow path by leaps and bounds to arrive at a fine and dandy solution which will satisfy all right thinking parties concerned, though we may have our ups and downs.” He added this as a thought-provoking epilogue, “even if 108 years should prove too short a time for consider- ing a problem of such magnitude, and even should we ultimately fail to realize our mutual goal, we shall all fall together into a bed of roses, and this might cause a great awakening.” I must apologize for the rather banal rhythm of this prose. I wish I knew as much about music as Mr. Jones so I could give you the name of the tune to which it was written. Very truly yours, H. D. Rowe ‘Leap Year Message’ En Garde The snow has come and gone leav- ing in its wake a few splotches of the “white plague.” Isn’t it amazing how the snow reduced “mature” col- legians to juvenile antics within the space of several hours?? Not that participating ir snow activities is juvenile—just that some of the so- called campus gentlemen carried their activities to extreme. .. . Believe it or not, but the other day I learned that Dr. Edgar Hirshberg of the English Department is carry- ing around an electric battery in his mouth. The battery accounts for his magnetic smile, no doubt. . And while in the English Department, may I add that Dr. James Poindexter has a most dynamic personality that charms those who meet him. . . . Campus elections are slated for the very near future. . .. This year’s elections should prove interesting just to which fraternity will move its headquarters in to Wright Build- ing. So far three persons have filed to run. ... 1 wonder if they are aware of the candidate who will be written in on election day? WWWS, campus radio, makes the challenging statement that when one of their dise jockeys pans a musical session that he has more than four records to spin. ... Jim Ballance of- fers his listening audience a wide selection on his weekly program, “Dedicated To You.” Next Monday, Tuesday, and Wed- nesday Owen Lattimore will be the Danforth speaker of the week. To give up one hour of other extra- curricular activities in order to hear Dr. Lattimore will be an hour well spent. . . . So many times we stu- dents let wonderful opportunities such as this slip through our fingers. Leap Year message to the girls. . . If you really want to catch a beau, start presenting a member of the op- posite sex with a candy bar... .Un- derstand that results are guaranteed, especially if presented to the “prop- er’ person.

By MIKE KATSIAS A great student decision will be iaached shortly by the voting student electorate of this college. It will be up to them to decide a successor for the position of SGA president. They will select a person who must de- finitely be a leader in every conceiv- able application of the word. Whether critics of student govern- ment agree or not, the mere avowal by one of the three men running for president may satisfy his own ego, but this doesn’t fill the proper quali- fication by any means. Students must quiz these candidates and receive specific answers as to platform stands. There seems to be too much of a “generalization” personality. Though it appears a popularity race, most voters aren’t as uninterested as these campus politicians think. One of the prime requirements for the office is proven leadership ability. The final selection will be a person who must help plan a creditable extra-curricular program that will benefit the student body. Which one of the “trio” fills this requirement? In past years, the old fraternity or veteran’s label has been pasted on a candidate’s back—such is not the ease this year. All of the candidates share similar views. ‘More attention should be the student fight for pata ate cuts and the proper settlement of an honor system. Both goals can easily te achieved with a strong backin; by the student body. vi Quite a bit of alarm has deen voic- ed over the apparent lack of interest ‘as the final campaign week begins. It appears that the realization of competent officers only dawns when a bitter issue erupts. Why can’t an attempt be made to offer adequate representation before incidents arise? Your interest in voting can begin a trend in this direction.

Attn: AGSN Please tell me more about sort the Won omens Table tennis fans and players in Japan are reading this month about the sport as carried on at East Caro- lina College. A three-page article by Norman Kilpatrick senior here, ap- pears, printed in Japanese, in oe March issue of “The Table Tennis Report,” a monthly edited by H. Ta- masu and having a circulation of 8 million subseribers. i The Japanese magazine also carries a feature article on Kilpatrick’s work as a student of psychology and as dir- ector of table tennis for the College Union at East Carolina. Four photo- graphs picture Kilpatrick and his wife, formerly Ramona Hicks, as table tennis players. Kilpatrick’s article, entitled ‘“T? Effect of Table Tennis Surfaces, deals with his observation of the use at East Carolina of Japanese-manu- factured rackets backed with rubber, which he imported and introduced at the college. A comparison of the ef- fectiveness of these models, popular in Japan, with the sandpaper rackets commonly used in this country, led him to the conclusion that the Japan- ese racket requires of the player a faster-paced, better-looking game than that required in the use of the sandpaper racket. Kilpatrick became East Carolina’s hampion table tennis player in tour- naments held at the College Union. As a student at Boston University in 1957, he won the title of National Intercollegiate Champion and ranked thirtieth among table tennis players in the United States. He has acted as a coach for the U. S. Table Tennis Association and has written articles on the sport for magazines in this country and in England.
