Messick last fall many people felt an era termed “The Growing Years” ended for East Carolina, Dr. Messick, in his 12 years of service, was instrumental in providing many additions to the facilities of the col- lege. Twelve years of experience can teach a man an awful lot about political maneuver- ing and, consequently, make him an abie per- son in handling aftairs such as budget re- quests to the legislature. However, with a new man in office there is no need for the “Grow- ing Years” to end. Tomorrow Dr. Leo W. Jenkins will be inaugurated as the sixth president of East Carolina in the presence of numerous people representing various levels of influence throughout the state. These people will see the effects of Dr. Messick’s twelve years of work. They will also see the new man take over and, as peo- ple do, will judge him and East Carolina, to an extent, by their first impression. We wonder just what this impression will be. Will they realize just how many gradu- ates Kast Carolina turns out each year? Will they realize the implications of a freshman class which has been estimated at 1800 as compared with last year’s 1400? Have they heard that East Carolina’s new nursing school which has not even gone into opera- tion yet already has three times more appli- cants than it can accommodate? Have they considered that we could turn out qualified personnel with Master’s degrees in business if we were permitted? Do they know that our library’s budget is pitifully insufficient when compared to its needs, that our infirmary is overcrowded and understaffed, and that self-help students who serve as staff, fac- ulty, and library assistants are paid seventy five cents per hour while day laborers with- out high school educations are paid one dol- lar per hour in most places within the state. We hope they realize and understand these and many more things. We also hope they decide Dr. Jenkins to be a capable administrator and will react to him as such in the future, for no one man can uild and maintain a satisfactory education- al institution without the cooperation and support of his peers and of the administra- tors under whom he must work. We hope the legislature, the members of the board of higher education, and the others who influence education in this state will yet an impression of East Carolina that will make them realize our needs and our poten- tial to such an extent that they will support us and support Dr. Jenkins and his program. We hope they see our need for even further expansion and will respond to this need when the time comes. We hope Dr. Jenkins (as we think he will) carries out a program of not only striv- ing for a growing East Carolina, but a ma- turing East Carolina. We hope he is working for an East Carolina that will produce quali- ty as well as quantity. It takes many years to establish a tradition. East Carolina’s half century of existence has witnessed so much change that there has been little time for establishing tradition. However, we hope the next several years will bring about a change of attitude which exists in the minds of It’s time for East Carolina to stop being thought of as “a good little ole’ school r and be respected in the same way the “big four” are in North Carolina educational cir- cles. * ‘sat Finally, we hope there are some intelli- gent taxpayers present who will form an opinion as to what East Carolina is, what it should be, and what it can_be. We hope these same taxpayers will realize that they only get what they pay for... at East Caro- lina or any other school. One cannot produce first rate education on second rate budgets. Education in our state needs more money and more competent, qualified personnel. Remember the phrase “thank God for South Carolina’? Well, we’re no longer ranked sec- ond in the nation, but we’re still too low. It is the taxpayers, the legislators, and the edu- cators who have made education what it is in North Carolina now, and it is only through them that it can be improved. They must real- that they get what they pay for. Yes, we hope that tomorrow many peo- ple realize many things. many. ize 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 Pat Harvey Roy Martin _ Betty Maynor _....

The production com- bined highly imaginative scenes rem- iniscent of old English masques with the cleverly acted love-tangle (which rivals an operetta plot for confusion. A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM is one of the most popular plays that Shakespeare wrote, performance wise, and its famous low-comedy play with- in a, play, “Pyramus and Thisbe,” has always been a favorite of amateur. theater groups. The entire play was a great favorite of the Victorian aud- iences, and it was given frequent per- formances on a lavish scale. Leigh Dobson, who played Helena, the most unique performance of the evening. It was refreshing to see her truly comical and unorthodox performance of the attractive, but unsophisticated ‘Athenian girl. This part is usually quite insignificant be- cause actresses often play Helena as insipid, waining victim of unre- arded ‘ove. In Act III, Scene 2, Hel- ena’s clever taunting of the beauti- ful Hermia, who suddenly finds her- self repulsed by both Lysander and Demetrius, was very natural and fun- ny. This scene is usually an incongru- ous change of character for the Hel- ena who has been simply a love-sick eirl clinging to Demetrius. Not so with Miss Dobson—the scene cli- maxed her spirited, slightly wanton performance. William Dixon as Bottom, the lov- able ham who usually steals the show, was very popu'ar with the audience. He played the part with enthusiasm, and Bottom’s vaulting ego never wavered a minute. The ass head, which Puck gives him for his little affair with Titania, truly climaxed his character development. Though Mr. Dixon was hilarious in the “Py- ramus and Thisbe” skit, we have seen it done better. Karen Best ss Hermia and Marsh- all Braddy as Lysander were both quite good. Mr. Braddy, In particular, conveyed a youthfulness that ‘the other lovers did not have. His sincere and slightly naive manner was con- vineing. Karen Best was a very pret- tv Hermia and was believably patri- cian but tenacious. As Titania and Oberon Mrs. Lois Garren and James Gillikin were won- derfully graceful and fairy-like. All of their movements and actions con- veyed an animated ethereality. They said their lines with great expres- sion. Mr. Gillikin’s little invocations as he squeezed the magic flowers over the lover’s and Titania’s eyes sounded almost charmed, and Mrs. Garren consistently maintained a re- fave © o.Gecd, tuner nerias S36 Ly CAROTINIAN ty] REFUSE YOUR QUESTION ON TH’ GROUNDS MY AN@WER MAY TEND TO INCRIMINATE ME.” fined diction and regal ring in her voice that befitted a queen of fairies. The whole court of fairies was sprightly and supernatural. Their dancing was not so_ imaginative, though, and most of the choreography was rather uninteresting. Doris Robbins was a lively Puck and was about as devilish as one could ask; she reported her mischief to Oberon with delightful glee. This was the first time we had seen a femaie Puck. In spite of fond memories of such superb male Pucks as Roddy McDowell and Stanley Holloway, we honestly enjoyed Miss Robbin’s per- formance. Mrs. Barbara Dixon of Greenvil’e was a statuesque Hippolyta, fiancee of Duke Theseus, played by Mahlon Coles of the college staff. Kenneth Harris of Ayden played Demetrius with masculine assertiveness. Richard Heller and Norman Pierce, both of Greenville, filled the parts of Phidostrate, master of revels, and Egeus, Hermia’s father, respectively. Mr. Heller was an articulate Philos- trate. The costumes for this production of Shakepeare’s comedy were really beautiful. The Greek characters wore traditional garb that was very color- ful, and the fairies looked marvelous in sheer tunic type costumes with werial looking ornaments that quiver- ed constantly. The fairies’ make-up was equally interesting, and Mr. Gil- likin and Mrs. Garren could have passed for a true nix or nixie. For once the Mendelssohn inciden- tal music was not used in toto, and the light, impressionistic music of Jacques Ibert was welcome. It is impossible to mention every- one who helped to make this produc- tion a success but we have to men- tion Dr. Joseph 1A. Withey, the dir- ector, who adds another feather to his cap with this production. En Garde By PAT FARMER ‘As the May Democratic Primary rears, many students are seriously considering the various candidates for state government positions. One of the candidates for governor—and vthose name has been associated with ¢ progressive educational policy—is Terry Sanford. In speech after speech, Mr. Sanford has referred time and time again to the state’s need for better education and better teachers. Particularly the need to sctract qualified young persons to the teaching profession and keeping them there... Many of you may have met Mr. Sanford when he was here on campus—friendly, warm, and seemingly sincerely interested in East Carolina and her problems. This did not seem true of the other two candidates who visited campus. Tf anyone is interested in learning more about Mr. Sanford and his views, contact Glenn Jernigan in Um- stead Hall. Last Saturday as the opening event of the 1960 Fine Arts Festival, a banquet was given honoring East Carolina's best seller author, Mr. Ovid Pierce of the English faculty. Mr. Pierce’s latest novel, On A Lone- some Porch, is now being sold in the college book store. Wayne Johnson of WWWS campus radio issues the following invitation to all coeds: “If you desire to have s record dedicated to you, please con- tact me and I will give you all perti- rent information concerning the cor- rect procedure.” Wayne can be con- tacted at the campus radio station or at Jones Hall.

Letters To Editor Reflect Opinions On Library, Art, Education Dear Editor, In last week's editorial, “Ameri- ean’s School System Fails in Real Education,” Robert N. Hutchins, for- mer Chancellor of the University of Chicago, states, “True education is improvement of men througa heyping them Jearn to think for them- selves.” This is not true education, in my opinion, because it does not constitute total development of the individual. I realize learning to think is a very important aspect of education. However, the human or- ganism still retains the structures and biological patterns that appeared long ago. It is these same circulatory, res- piratory, digestive, excretory, mus- cular, and nervous systems which still demand vigorous excerise and work in some form to maintain them- selves. I make note of this to point out that the development of the men- tal being is controlled by the devel- opment of the physical being and vice versa. The lifetime working po- tential of the individual depends on a balanced physical and mental pro- gram. Medical physiology, psychology, sociology and modern philosophy all recognize the fact of organismic unity. In other words the dichotomy of body and mind has been abandoned by many thoughtful people in these fields. I feel that a person basically, or maybe subconsciously, desires to ex- press himself both physically and mentally. A person who is unable to adjust to the physical and mental demands of his environment, in my opinion, is in serious danger of be- coming emotionally unbalanced. Is not true education attained only when the individual is mentally, physically, nd emotionally competent? Thus a student is born only if he has devel- oped a desire to continue his intel- lectual and athletic habits after grad- uation. I am reminded of an educationa! principle. “It is better to teach by the example rather than by precept.” I challenge all educators and potential educators to first take inventory of ‘their personal physical condition, namely their abdominal regions and superficial profiles, before criticiz- ing the physical and mental develop- ments of American youth. In closing, the fields of education do have many ‘specialists’ making outstanding contributions to the wel- fare of the society. Unfortunately, however, because of battle lines be- tween different factions there is gen- erally little respect shown for the importance of each field in the edu- cational program. I would like to see more leadership designed to bring the groups together if only for the sake of the student. Sincerely, Bob Sawyer Dear Editor, i In a recent issue of the East Caro- linian I read the announcement con- cerning May Day. I believe it read to this effect—“due to recent years of poor attendance and little interest on the campus of East Carolina, the S.G.A. has decided to discontinue the annual affair. Therefore, May Day will not be held this year. It is an activity of great expense both to the girls who participate and the $.G.A. The money spent on May Day will be used for an occasion that will be enjoyed by many more.” I am certainly disappointed in the spirit of the S.G.A. Whose fault was it that it was not a success? Once again we go back to “school spirit.” Instead of fighting and conquering the problem with work—the S.A. jretreats! Why? This doesn’t sound Mke the S.G.A. of 1959. Surely one year hasn’t made that much differ- ence, As @ past queen I can truthfully say I did not mind the expense. It was an honor to be crowned May Queen at Hast Carolina in 1950. May I sincerely add that I hope I will not be the reigning May Queen forever. it is up to the student body to select a queen for 1961. It is too late for the queen of 1960. Sincerely, z Elizabeth Bowman Hauser May Queen of ’59 Dear Editor, As a heavy user of the college li- brary I wou'd like to temper the crit- icism, perhaps mainly justifiable, now appearing in your pages with a few bouquets. I have always found the library staff co-operative and knowledgeable; I consider the Librar- ian highly efficient, wise, and com- retent, by no means the rule among our administrators. A rather modest, but excellent and expensive, collec- tion of learned journals has been de- veloped, but unfortunately it is prov- ing too rich for the intellectual level of the campus and is drawing scant attention. In my humble judgment our library is far above and beyond the needs consonant with the academ- ic standards of this institution. J. Q. Heplar, Science Department Dear Editor, In last week’s East Carolinian, one of your columnists attempted what seems to be a first try at art critic- ism. I would like to offer a few lines trom Concerning the Spiritual in Art by Wassily Kandinsky, one of the most influential artists of our time. I trust they will help the columnist in his new work. “Art cannot be explained, one can only help towards its understanding. But the observer must be sensitive. It is the same with music. How many people there are who are bored at a concert when listening to Bach or Mozart! : “It is necessary to have an open heart and a free spirit to admire art. “To each spiritual epoch corresponds a new spiritual content, which that epoch expresses by forms that are new unexpected, surprising and in this way aggressive. “Nature creates its form according to its ends; art creates its form ac- cording to its own.” Sincerely, Ed Lancaster Dear Editor, In a recent issue of the East Caro- linian it was stated “American’s School System Fails in Real Educa- tion” and how inadequate the require- ments for a teaching certificate were. The attitude shown, I think, is an example of the general educator who often is antagonistic to physical ed- ucation today in much the same way as teachers of the classics were an- tagonistic to science a century ago. You quoted R. M. Hutckins as saying, “True education is the improvement of men through helping them learn to think for themselves.” I agree completely, but isn’t education also the development of the whole body, not just the mind as you implied? If you mark out these physical educa- tion requirements, would it be total development; even total development of the mind? Plato and Aristotle recognized the need for organismic unity in their time. Physical education should not be dominant, but neither should it be subservient. Shouldn't there be a balance between the development of the mind and body? T am not saying that the education program is ates hag aged is definitely not. Just because our forefathers took foreign language and world history does not mean it is the only pert of true education. Leaders in physical education are aware of the need for adjustments in the curriculum as changing conditions necessitates it; what about the tra. ditional educator, is he? 3 Reggie Ecigerton College Life Simulates Perpetual Motion Machine: Gnat Aspires To Glory By DERRY WALKER College is i. peapetent motion It grinds on endlessly, repeatin it a repeated before.

Students Prove Drama Suceesses Tom Hu'l, Don Dunson, and Charles Briggs, former E.C. students, are hav- ing interesting and successful experi- ences in the field of drama. Hull, who is now an entertainment specialist with the U.S. Army, Augs- burg, Germany, recently received a trophy presented to the best actor at the Southern Area of Command’s Festival of Plays at Augsburg. A member of the Bavarian Crossroads Service Clubs drama group, Hull played the harassed lover in Chek- bov’s “The Marriage Proposal.” The award was presented by actress Oli- via de Havilland. Dunson, now a speech teacher at the Glynn County, Ga., Junior High School, had the leading role in Wil'- iam Inge’s Pulitzer-Prize play “Pic- nic,” presented by the St. Simons Island Players. His wife, Judy, a home economies student here for two yea also had a part in the play. Briggs, who was active in drama- tics here is cast in the movie “Home From the Hil hown in Greenviile avring April. fe has appeared in a number of TV productions including “Lawman,” “The Texan,” “Wagon Train,” “The Rifleman,” and “Tight- cope.” With his wife, former EC stu- vent Annette Bradley, Briggs left East Carolina for California in 1957 te make his way in filmdom and is making a place for himself as a char- eetor actor. Hull, Dunson and Briggs worked with the East Carolina Playhouse their student days. Letters from them to Dr. Lucile H. Charles of the English department give ac- counts of their experiences on ihe stage and of their continued interest in the theater. turing Investigation Reveals Furthur Generals To Attend Information About Library (EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the sec- and part of a series in which our re- porter has asked various campus per- sonalities “What is good, and what is bad about our library.” We have selected at random from their com- ments in order to present both sides of the picture as objectively as pos- sible.) By BETTY MAYNOR These publications are indexed in «| monthly catalogue, United States Government Publications, and may be acquired at the desk by filling out a eal! slip with the classification num- ber in this catalogue. We handle gov- ernment documents exactly as they do in all colleges and universities. Q. How do you explain the hap- hazard treatment of materials in the North Carolina room? A. I have heard many statements which contradict this question. Most people feel that we are too strict in the handling of this material. We watch these materials more closely than any others in the library. We are not systematically collect- ing North Carolina materials. We col- lect them incidentally because the legislature would not sappropriate money for us to duplicate the excel- lent collection at the University of North Carolina. Q. Why is our collection of micre- film, and the equipment to use it, not larger? A. We are gradually increasing our collection of micro-film. We are getting The Daily Reflector and the New York Times. We need more read- ing machines, but we realize this and will have them as our budget allows their addition. At present there is cnly one request which we have not been able to fill and that is for The News and Observer. We hope to have ‘this next year. Q. Why has the Library Commit- tee met only once this year in a token meeting? A. During previous years we have tried to have three meetings, one each auarter. As Chairman of this com- mittee, I did rot have any new is- sues to bring forth, or I would have called other meetings. However, I do not feel that our meeting this year was a token meet- ing. At that meeting we decided that there should be members of other de- partments represented on this com- mittee. The committee decided: 1) to let any member of the faculty order books rather than allocate funds to the departments, and 2) that the lib- tary would not buy motion pictures, slides, or records with the $51,000 book fund. However, we decided to buy micro-film from this fund. Q. Why are all azines not available in the Periodical room, and why is there no more control over hooks and magazines disappearing? A. Approximately 50% of the lat- est issues of periodicals are now on the shelf. Those that aren’t there are the ones that would disappear the day after they were put out. Before we moved out of the old Dorning Jenkins received an award most outstanding pledge, while Janice Saunders was voted most out- | standing senior. | Immediately following the banquet |the sorority traveled to Atlantic Beach for the remainder of the week- | Jas “>| end. Mrs. Helen A. Snyder, College | Chapter Director, and Mrs. Susie| | Webb served as chaperones. Delta Zeta Sorority received two outstanding awards last week. They participated in the All-Sing sponsor- ed by Alpha Phi Sorority and won first place with their song and act-— “Do-Re-Me” and “Climb the Highest Mountain.” At the Women’s Recrea- tion Association Banquet May 4, they were presented one of the outstand- ing sorority participation awards. PI KAPPA TAU Pledge pins were given out Tuesday night at a meeting of the group of men who are organizing a Phi Kappa Tau colony on the East Carolina campus. The meeting was held in the “Y” hut. Phi Kappa Tau is a national social fraternity organized by a group of men at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio more than a half-century ago. The fraternity stresses individual rights and development of individual integrity. East Carolina College was suggest- ed to the Phi Kappa Tau headquarters in Oxford as a colony locale by Dr. William B. Aycock, Chancellor of the University of North Carolina, who was a Phi Kappa Tau brother at State College. Roger Vaughn, representative from Phi Kappa Tau headquarters has been un campus recently discussing with students and members of the admin- istration the possibility of a frater- nity colony next fall. The men who ere interested have elected Barney West as acting president for the | SORORITY INITIATES ELEVEN In a candlelight ceremony at St. James Methodist Church May 2, eleven | rls were initiated as sisters of gma Sigma Sigma Sorority. The girls initiated were Margaret Cude, Kay Beach, Nancy Carr, Mary | Helen Coffey, Jackie Hammond, Sue Holland, Nancy Kenner, Nancy King, Judy Redfern, Susie Street, and San- dra Wrenn. YATE BECOMES PREXY Carolyn Pate was installed as pre- sident of the Free Will Baptists fel- lowship last Monday evening in the “Y”> hat. Other officers elected were Alton Cowan, vice president; Betty Spruill, secretary; and Gale Evans, treasurer. Marce'le Vogel and Judy Calhoun will serve as publicity co-chairmen. The Free Will Baptist Fellowship meets every Monday evening at 5:15 for fellowship and supper. Rev. R. B. Crawford, of the First Greenville Free Will Baptist Church, is the group advisor. BREWER RECEIVES GRANT James Brewer, faculty member of the department of English, will study at the Salzburg, Austria, Summer School this summer. He will attend the school on a grant arranged through the Institute of Interna- tional Education, New York City. Brewer will study voice, history of Austrian music and art, and the Ger- man language. After completion of his work at Salzburg he will be lo- cated for a six month’s period at Munich, Germany, and will do re- search work in the German drama at the Munich Stast Theater. CHI OMEGA PLEDGES Seven members of Beta Pledge ‘Class of Rho Zeta Chapter of Chi Omega were initiated Wednesday, May 4, 1960 in St. James Methodist Church, in Greenville. The new pledges are: Anne Butler, Sandra Burley, and Kay Priest. Jean Lassiter served as president of the pledge class and Nancy Win- gate served as vice president. Jewel Callihan was sercetary, and Barbara Ellis treasurer. group. Others who are interested in working with the group should con- tact West. The EC Concert Band building (now the music hall), we set up @ reserve reading room and had a student on duty all of the time to check on the books. Within a quar- ter, the faculty and students were begging us to change back to the previous system. Many of the stu- dents would drop a book out of a window and then go around and pick it up. I believe that students should have access to the collection, and if any- one can come up with a system which would allow this, I will gladly go along with it. However, you just cannot depend students to check students. In crder to establish an efficient check- system you would have to hire pro- fessional guards as they do in some of the metropolitan libraries, Q. Why is there little attempt to control excessive noise in the library? A. I feel that college students are cld enough to know how to act here, therefore I don’t feel like it should be up to the librarians, unless in ex- treme cases, to curb the noise. I feel that the Student Government should assist in removing this problem from the library. Q. Why should the radio and tele- vision studios he in the library when additional study rooms are urgently needed? A. Actually our location of the communications center follows a new innovation in library planning. Since Looks are as much a means of com- munication as radio and television, the newest trend is to have radio and television in the library as Audio- Visual Education. We rea'ize that we are crowded znd considering that this library was janned in 1949 for a student enroll- ment of 1600, I think we are doing as well as we can. Since 1957 we have made requests to the legislatures for a new wing (on east side). The first floor would include more study room and a re- served reading room, and the second floor would include music listening rooms and seminar rooms. Therefore, the second floor east wing would be the Department of Audio-Visual Edu- cation. Requests have also been made for air conditioning, and a floor to be built in the reference room (mak- ing it a two-story room), thereby en- larging the study space and the North Carolina room. Q. Why is there never enough student help at the desk? A. We try to place enough help on the desk to take care of students. However, we just have to outguess the public to know when the rush hours will be. We cannot afford to have girls standing at the desk with nothing to do. Our budget allows $10,400 for student help. This could pay 32 full time student helpers or any number cf part time und full time workers. on Inauguration Three Marine Generals will be spe- cial guests at the inauguration of President Leo W. Jenkins, on May 13. These men are Brigadier General George Richard E. Shell, Command- ing General, Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island, S. C., Briga- dier General Ralph K. Rottet, Com- manding General, U. S. Marine Corps Air Station, Cherry Point, N. C., and Major General J. P. Berkeley, Com- manding General, Second Marine Division FMF, Camp Lejeune, N. C. Major General Berkeley will bring greetings at the inaugural luncheon from the Marine Corps Base at Camp Lejeune. These men are attending because of the many men enrolled in the ex- tension course that EC has at Camp Lejeune. East Carolina has more Marines, or ex-Marines enrolled than any other college in the United States. CU Sponsors Tea Honoring Prexy The College Union Board honored Dr. Jenkins and his family with an informa] tea in the Union Lounge at 4:30 p.m., Sunday, May 8. Mrs. Jenkins received a corsage of talisman roses. Their three little girls were given nosegays. Dr. Jenkins and his sons received roses as bouton- nieres. ‘Ron Stephens, President of the Union, and Dot Smith, Vice President, velcomed the zuests. A large white cake with the E. C. seal in purple and gold was the fea- ture decoration. The guests enjoyed frozen punch, cake, and salted nuts. There were an estimated 250 guests. “Meet the President” was the title of the bulletin board which honored ithe college presidents, past and pre- sent. This displayed pictures of all the presidents, from Robert H. Wright to Dr. Leo W. Jenkins. Frat Initiates New Members The Tau Sigma Fraternity held its last meeting on May 2, 1960 at a local restaurant. A formal initiation of jmembers followed the guest speaker.

The blow came with out but McDevitt stole second and Charlie Johnson’s attempted pick- off throw got away from Glenn Bass and rolled into left field. Failing to stop at third, McDevitt was safe at home when Gary Pierce’s throw sailed over the head of John- son. Crayton struck out the next two , but the damage had been done. Catawba added a run in the ninth when Gerald Whisenhunt walked, moved to second on a sacrifice, and went to third on a passed ball. Whi- senhunt scored when Bass made a bad throw to Jimmy Martin on a routine infieid grounder. It was a heartbreaking defeat for Crayton who struck out 14 of the first 16 men he faced. He retired the side by strikes in the first, third, and fourth. While Crayton was hurling his masterpiece, Catawba’s Honace Med- ford was retiring ECC hitters in rapid-fire order.

Kil- patrick won the Men’s Singles crown by defeating Joe Corne of Burlington 12 and 21-16 in the finals, with is fine defensive play and spin ser- ves. In the semi-finals Kilpatrick had defeated Goldsboro champion George 3! Whitted 21-6 and 21-12, by using a ; Series of 10 foot high lobbed returns. Corne had defeated defending cham- pion Gary Preston in the finals of the Burlington city tournament, while Ki*patrick won the Greenville and Fastern North Carolina titles without losing a single game in any of his matches. Kilpatrick has been East Carolina champion in 1958, ’59, and "60 and is the first E. C. player to cop the state title. The state Men’s Doubies finals was also an East Carolina-Burlington af- | fair, as E. C.’s two top players, Kil- patrick and Nelson Tugwell, lost a bitterly fought contest to defending champions Corne and Preston of Burlington, 21-18, 18-21, 18-21. Al- though the chop defenses of the E.C. duo slowed down the attack of the champions, ‘Corne’s well. placed blocks of Kilpatrick’s spin shots allowed the Burlington players to finally take the match and the title. In the semi- finals, Tugwell’s chop defense, and Kilpatrick’s forehand drives stopped Wilmington champions Peter drews and Harold Smith 21-13, only to see the steady play of the Wilming- ton pair force Tugwell to miss his spin shots often, as Smith-Andrews came back to take the second game 21-8. In the final game, with the score 19-all, Kiloatrick hit a forehand kil’ shot and Tugwell forced Smith to miss one of his defensive returns, is the E. C. players squeezed out a 21-19 vietory.
