Austin Third Floor As According to a notice issued Mon- |day by Dean of Instruction, Robert L. Holt, classes will no longer be as- signed to the third floor of Austin | Building. This became effective Mon- day, March 21. Dr. Holt’s notice, stated “In the interest of safety and the welfare f East Carolina College students, ‘lasses will no longer be assigned to the third floor of Austin Building, which is considered dangerous as a potential fire hazard.” The notice further said that at the earliest possible time when space became available, faculty offices on third floor of Austin would be re- located.

Here she is studying with Mrs. Gladys R. White of the department of music. Miss Murray, a contralto, has taken an outstanding part in activities and |urganizations of the music depart- ment. Early this month, as one of the few seniors to receive special recognition as a solo performer, she was presented by the department in , graduating honors recital. She has appeared as soloist with the East Carolina Orchestra, and with the East Carolina Concert Band. In productions by the college Opera Theater she has had leading roles in Sometona’s “The Bartered Bride” and Menotti’s “The Medium” and has twice been a soloist in the an- nual performance on the campus of Handel's “The Messiah.” In East Carolina music organiza- tions she has acted as president of the campus chapter of Sigma A'pha Iota, international professional music organization for women, and as stu- dent director of the College Choir, and represented the local Sigma Al- pha Tota group at its national con- vention in San Francisco last sum- mer. Her excellent record in academic work is evidenced by the frequent in- clusion of her name on the college Dean’s List and the Honor Roll. Miss McLawhorn, alternate, has a superior record as a student of art at East Carolina. She is specializing in the grephic arts and plans to be- come a teacher. In the student art society at the college, she holds the position of treasurer. She has ap- peared in short talks and demonstra- tions before the East Carolina Art Society and at the Rocky Mount and the Greenville art festivals. Her work Holt Issues Notice Stopping Classes On Safety Measure “We want to close off the entire third floor completely as far as we can.

Lattimore Expresses Views On McCarthy, World Affairs “Joseph McCarthy led a complete- 1y amoral political life,” Owen Latti- more, professor of political science at the Johns Hopkins University, told an audience of ECC students and} faculty early this week. Mr. Lattimore appeared on the cam- pus this week under the sponsorship f the Danforth Project in lectures preliminary to the opening of East Carolina’s Seventh Annual World Affairs Institute. In a lecture on the McCarthy Hear- ings Monday morning, Lattimore ex- plained the reason for the political atmosphere of the McCarthy period. “The outcome of the World War dis- appointed Americans who had pour- ed their efforts into making a better world” said Lattimore. He also dis- cussed the anti-Democratic (Party) feelings which added to the post-war ‘jsillusionment and helped to create a general attitude of intense anti- Communism. Lattimore showed that this was an ideal) period for McCarthy to rise to an influential position in Congress. Though Lattimore strongly criticiz- | ed the methods used by the Congres- sional Committee during the McCar- thy Hearings, he stated that “the congressional committee is an abso- jute necessity.” In discussing Communist China, Lattimore emphasized the “positive development” of nationalism in China. He stated that ideas of nationalism were stirring in Asia even before World War I. Though these ideas grew stronger after this period he explained, nationalist movement in Asia did not succeed because none of them was strong enough to overthrow alien rule. “Though China was in- vaded martially and economically many times, nationalism was never stifled” he added. Lattimore asserted that Japan as Jenkins Announces Dorm Dedications President Leo W. Jenkins has an- rounced that the men’s dormitory, Jones Hal', named in honor of Dr. Paul Jones of Farmville, will be de- dicated Sunday, May 15. Jenkins also said that a portrait of Dr. Jones, longtime friend of East Carolina College, and Pitt County’s representative in the North Caro- lina General Assembly for a number of years, is being painted by Mrs. Georgia Hearne of Greenville. Jenkins stated further that Um- stead Hall, which will become a women’s dormitory next fall, and Slay Hall, would be dedicated in a joint ceremony as soon as construction for parlor, which will join the two buildings, is completed. | an imperial power was largely re-| Owen Latimore sponsible for the “liberation of Asia.” Japan caused Asian countries to for- get the prestigious factors of being part of a European empire, he ex- plained. Lattimore expressed doubt of an impending schism between Commun- ist China and Soviet Russia. He dis- counted the opinion expressed by American journalists who predict such a political break between the two socialist countries. “Though there may be small problems because of their different states of development there will be no open conflict,” he added. Colleges Send Aid To Alabama State UPS—Five colleges collected almost $1500 last week to aid the students »f Alabama State College in Mont- gomery, and an additional $200 was raised at a rally held at the Yale Cha'lenge this weekend. The five schools—Oberlin, Swarth- vore and the Universities of Chicago, Colorado and Wisconsin—collected the funds to be used for food for the rly 1,000 students who went on -trike protesting the arrest of théir fellow schoolmates participating in non-violent sit-ins. When they refused to register, the administration re- tused to open the dining room, thus leaving the students with worth'ess meal tickets and no place to eat. Learning of the need of funds for food, the five schools raised money on ‘heir campuses to help feed the Ala- bama_ students. Almost $1,000 was sent to Montgomery before the strike was called off. The remainder of the money will be put into a fund to be used for the legal expenses incurred by the stu- dents who have been arrested.

Keel’s warehouse, the site of the dadnce, was decorated by a joint com- mittee of the IFC and Panhellenic Counci}, with Bill Hamilton of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity heading the decorating operations. The warehouse, located on the out- skirts of Greenville, was arranged with a cafe motif. Enclosing the area dotted with tables were sheets of tobacco canvas, while the tables were lighted with candles. The background of the area was decorated with flow- ers, and ivy, as were the roof sup- forts and the bandstand. PAGE TWO New Regulations Need For Class Attendance To Boost EC Standards Among other changes much needed at East Carolina is a revised regulation on class attendance. Under the present system quality points are deducted when a student takes more cuts than are designated for a particular course regardless of the quantity or quality of work he does. This program fails to recognize three of the more outstanding factors in education. First of all it provides no reward for individual initiative. If a student is capable of doing the required work in a given course and becomes familiar enough with the mater- ial to satisfy the professor of the course, there is no point in stipulating that he must attend class. As long as a student learns, it does not matter where. It has been our ex- perience that some classrooms retard learn- ing more than they speed it, although these cases are rare. However, if a case like this should occur, the student should not be taxed for using his time more effectively. Secondly, As we have already stated, most classes aid learning. The student who habitually cuts these classes is an undesir- able from the beginning. By cutting the class and participating half-heartedly he holds back the rest of the class and slows up the progress of the other students. This type student attends class only because he knows he must. His intellectual attitude is one of apathy and all he wants is to just scrape by. Yet the atmosphere created by required class attendance not only allows this type student, it encourages it by giving a false sense of self satisfaction to those who think they are learning if they attend the required classes. Last of all this system of required at- tendance is ridiculous from this standpoint: All told, and not counting time and effort, student invests at least five hundred dollars each quarter to attend college (tak- ing into consideration the money he would be earning if he were working full time). To spend this much money for a product nd then not utilize it is stupid. Dr. George Pasti summed it up once when he said, “A student who is given a free class cut should to the registrar and demand some of his tition back.” If a persc enters a restaurant and buys . meal, it is absurd to assume the cook will be expected to stand over him and force him to eat it 3y initiating an unlimited cut system the college will improve the quality of its student body. Students who do not wish to learn and co to class only because they have to lowed to sleep all day if they so quality points will be deducted cu However, these students will know the difference at the end of the quarter. The final exams will tell the story. Those students who have no desire to learn and no initiative to study will flunk. As a result they will either change their habits or flunk out entirely. This atmos- phere of “produce or get out’’ will separate the sheep from the goats and finally result in a higher level student body. In addition to this, those students who an earnest desire to learn will be given opportunity to do so and the space ated by the flunk outs will be available for more earnest students. The final results would be a much im- proved intellectual atmosphere and a higher grade student body on campus. Freshmen should not be allowed to par- ticipate in this program however, because they have not yet had time to mature intel- lectually and otherwise. The present program is satisfactory for them. Sophomores could have unlimited cuts if they had already dem- onstrated their desires by getting and keep- ing a grade average of three. But by the time a student becomes a junior he should be smart enough to be put on his own. If he fails to produce, send him home... he’s only in the way here. have mo East Carolinian Published by the students of East Carolina College, Greenville, North Carolina Member Associated Collegiate Press North State Conference Press Association BUSINESS MANAGER JoAnne Parks _.......

First, I was impress- ed with the music. In addition to be- ing artistically performed it was en- yoyable and listenable as well. Second, I was impressed with the audience. 1 was pleased to see Wright Audit- orium literally packed on a Saturday afternoon with well-dressed college students. Even the beards didn’t look so bad over neat shirts, ties, and coats! This brings me to the point of this letter. As a faculty member, 1 should like to congratulate the members of the student body on their appearance and conduct at this per- formance. It made me proud to be a» teacher here and to be a part of the audience enjoying the program. As Co-chairman of the Inauguration Committee, it is my sincere hope that the entire student body will be just as “handsome” (and pretty) on May 13 on the occasion of Doctor Jenkins’ inauguration as President of East Carolina College. On that day, we are anxious to put our best foot forward ir every way; and certainly one of the best ways to impress our large pumber of out-of-town guests and friends of the college will be for our students to be “dressed up” for the ceremony. After seeing you on Satur- day, I know we can count on your co-operation. Sincerely, James L. White Professor of Business Dear Editor, “Indictment by Slander.” It seems that the East Carolinian has now reached the depth of the McCarthian Press of another decade. Mr. Walker's indictment of the honor and integrity of the organized veterans on this campus is a direct collision with fact. That is: he is either ill-informed or a pusillanimous liar. It is suggested that Mr. Walker make an investigation of three sig- rificant points mentioned in his article of March 17th: the use of the verb “ice cream cones;” and the source of the flowers that was mentioned in the article. To supple- ment what we are sure will be a thorough investigation by Mr. Wal- ker, we sincerely implore the admin- tration to investigate the charge of jefacing public property by the vet- erans of this campus. Since the East Carolinian is the “voice of the students,” we recom- mend the findings of the subsequent investigations be published in this paper. Also we recommend that ap- propriate disciplinary action be taken against any individuals indicted by evidence, not slander. Further, it would seem that Mr. Walker has finally composed himself enough to mention that campaign of a year ago. In mentioning this at this late date, Mr. Walker has done one of three things: Forgotten the rea) facts of the campaign; never known those facts; or a combination of one “ordered;” ‘Heido’ Plans To Study Three Years In The By MARCELLE VOGEL Among the foreign exchange stu- dents at East Carolina this year is Hideo Kusama, who recently arrived in the U.S. from Japan. Hidesaburo (his friends call him “Hiedo” which is pronounced “Hi- day-o”) arrived in Greensboro Janu- ary 21 for a visit with Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Watts before enrolling for the Spring quarter at ECC. When he left Japan, January 9, on his birthday some 150 friends and re- latives gathered to see him off. He is the first person from his home town to go outside Japan. He’s in this country on a three- year visa to study journalism, poli- tical science and “international re- iations in general.” He already holds a degree in English and Amerioan Literature from Aoyana Gakuin Uni- versity in Tokyo, a Protestant school. While there he was editor of the col- lege newspaper, which is published in English. Hiedo plans to write a series of articles for the East Carolinian, comparing some of the traditions and customs of Japan with America. “As soon as I am able to polish my English and get used to American customs,” said Hideo, “I plan to en- ter graduate school at the University of North Carolina.” Kusama is from “a little country town” of almost 20,000, about 100 miles from Tokyo. It was there that Japanese suicide pilots trained dur- ing World War II. He vividly remembers the war — even though he was only eight years cld when it ended. “A most fearful time,” he recalls, when American planes bombarded the town’s naval base “many times.” His own home remained intact, but food was hard to come by and the town was flooded with Japanese fleeing from Tokyo, begging for food of the above and, by surreptious im- plications and untruths, attempted to convince his readers that his state- ments are the truths. Finally, we give Mr. Walker credit for the possession of a certain amount of creative ability in the field of fic- tion. However, we feel that he should refrain from creativity while at- tempting to present the facts. Sincerely, Fred D. Ragan C. W. Warrick, Jr. James K.

He wrote for a Bible, read it, and decided to become a Christian. In the summer of 1956 he met Mrs. Watts who was attending an in- ternational Christian work camp in Osaka, Japan. He told her that he hoped to go to the U.S. some day to study. Mrs. Watts did not forget the young Japanese who believed that “all men are brothers” and it was with the help of Mr. and Mrs. Watts and Greensboro’s West Market Street Methodist Church that he was finally able to come to this country. He is now staying with Mr. and Mrs. Her- bert Waldrop, Mrs. Watts’ parents. When he goes back to Japan, he plans to teach for a while and then enter the government.

He said that in Japan today it is every man for himself. “Life in Japan is a horse race,” he said. When he was told that it is considered a rat race in the U.S. by many citizens, Hiedo disagreed politely. “There is more brotherhood among the Americans,” he said And that is the great problem facing young Christians in Japan—how to create more brotherhood with one another and with the people of the rest of the world.” Young people in Japan are not in- terested in Christianity.

Coach Jim Mallory’s ball club drop- ped a pair to Camp Lejeune last week-end, and were scheduled to open their home season against Springfield College with a double- header taking place yesterday and today. The Springfield club is cur- rently at Camp Lejeune and have agreed to play the Bucs, according to Mallory. The Pirate tutor was not down in the dumps over his team’s loss to ‘Camp Lejeune. In fact, Mallory was very well pleased with his club's showing. “We hit the ball much bet- ter than we had hoped for with only two days of outdoor practice,” said the EC coach. The Pirates banged out 10 hits for a total of 12 runs in the opener, but still lost on the Mar- ines’ 14 hits and 14 runs. Leading the Bucs at the plate was ieft fielder Gary Pierce, the batting leader in the conference last year. The husky hitter made a day of it at Lejeune banging out a home run and two doubles. His homer came on his first trip to the plate with two men on. It was a 420 foot drive that clear- ed the centerfield fence with room to spare. Later in the game Pierce slash- ed a double and added another in the second contest. Other extra base hits for the Pi- rates were credited to Hubert Caste- loe and Jim Martin, with two hits apiece, and Glenn Bass, who banged out a double. Things looked as though they were going to be different in the second game when back-to-back doubles were slammed out by Wally Cockrell and Jim Martin to produce a run in the first inning, but the rally was short- lived. The Marines bounced back with three runs in the third and fifth frames to take a 6-1 lead. Another EC rally fell short in the sixth frame, with the Bucs adding three more tal- lies. Again the Lejeune hitters came back to add a pair of insurance runs in the last half of the sixth. The Pirate camp is not bitter over the losses, for in last year’s game with Camp Lejeune the Bucs were able to push only one run for their afternoon’s effort. The Marine boys have no record to laugh at either. They were All-Marine champions last season, posting a 97-20 won-lost rec- ord.

From this corner it appears that Sigma Nu has been better organized than the others. The Duke University basketbail team went a lot further than any- one expected them to this year. The Blue Devils opened their bag of sur- prises during the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament at Raleigh where they defeated the two strongest teams in the ACL, Wake Forest and the University of North Carolina on successive nights to win the A.CL. crown. Duke squeaked by the Tar Heels in the semi-finals, and came from behind to whip the Deacons in the finals. This gained the Blue Devils a berth in the N.C.A.A. playoffs which were played in New York’s Madison Square Garden and the Colosseum at ‘Charlotte, N. C. Not bothered by the fact that everyone was saying that they would not get past the first round, Coach Vic Bubas and his boys went to New York in a mood of determination. The Blue Devils had to prove to every- one that they were going further than the first round .. . and that’s exactly what they did. Their first match was with Ivy League champion, Princeton, who didn’t prove to be much of a match after all. The Blue Devils romped over Princeton in perfect form, and their next stop was in Charlotte for the remainder of the regional playoffs. Here Bubas and his boys met with a little more competition in St. Josephs of Pennsylvania, but Duke passed the test to defeat the yankees in a hard fought two point victory. But at this point the Durham five met their match in New York University. The Violets were riding high on their upset victory over the University of West Virginia, a 81-80 overtime thriller. The New Fork boys proved to have too much talent for the Blue Devils, and consequently ‘the Dukes got behind and could never catch up. Even though the Blue Devils didn’t win any national championships, they did succeed in gaining a couple of moral victories. Three times dur- ing the regular season the Tar Heels had beaten Duke, and Wake Forests Deacons had downed the Blue Devils twice. It was a surprise to everyone except Coach Bubas, who figured that the pressure was on the Tar Heels and the Deacons instead of his Blue Devils. Evidently he was right.

The dean (from the Greek deanos—to skewer) is characterized chiefly by sympathy, wisdom, patience, forbearance, and a fondness for homely pleasures like barn-raisings, gruel, spelldowns, and Marlboro Cigarettes. The dean (from the German deangemacht —to poop a party) is fond of Marlboros for the same reason that all men of good will are fond of Marlboros—because Marlboro is an honest cigarette. Those better makin’s are honestly better, honestly aged to the peak of perfection, honestly blended for the best of all possible flavors. The filter honestly filters. Marlboro honestly comes in two different containers—a soft pack which is honestly soft, and a flip-top box which honestly flips. You too will flip when next you try an honest Marlboro, which, one honestly hopes, will be soon. But I digress.

Spey eae DH No e Name seemed Ul tused., Wise, kindly Dean Sigafoos was visited one day by a fresh- man named Walter Aguincourt who came to ask permission to marry one Emma Blenheim, his dormitory laundress. To the dean the marriage seemed ill-advised, for Walter was only 18 and Emma was 91. Walter agreed, but said he felt obligated to go through with it because Emma had invested her life savings in @ transparent rain hood to protect her from the mist at Niagara Falle where they planned to spend their honeymoon. What use, asked Walter, would the poor woman have for a rain hood in Yutah? The wise, kindly dean pondered briefly and came up with an answer: let Walter punch holes in the back of Emma’s steam iron; with steam billowing back at the old lady, she would find a rain hood very useful—possibly even essential. Whimpering with gratitude, Walter kissed the dean’s Phi Dear Dr. Frood: Do you believe in the theories that Shakespeare was actually either Marlowe or Bacon? English Major Dear English: All rot.
