Board Selects Faulkner,
Grimes, Publications Editors

By JIM STINGLEY, JR.

At a March meeting of the Publi-
cations Board, Junius D. Grimes III
and Walter C. Faulkner were chosen
1961-62 editors of the Rebel and Buc-

‘caneer, respectively.

Junivs is a sophomore English me-
jor.

Grimes’ literary career began at
the University of Narth Carolina
where he was on the writing staff
of “The Daily TarHeel.” Leaving

‘arolina, he came to EC where he
joined with the Rebel staff as a writ-
er and proof-reader. Because of his
skill in writing and his love for liter-
ary publications, Grimes stuck with
the Rebel and was appointed .Assist-
ant Editor early in his sophomore
year. During this time Grimes wrote
an essay concerning William Faulk-
ner and the South. This proved a
highlight of the Winter Rebel and
was another factor that led to Grimes’
Editorship.

After being asked if he intended
to change the Rebel or what he ex-
‘actly would like to do with the Rebel,
Grimes replied: “I would like to see
“The Rebel” assume a position and
find a point of view that is repre-
sentative of our school and of east-
em Carolina.”

Grimes has appointed the position
of Associate Editor for the coming
year to Mr. J. Alfred Willis, and Mr.

Faulkner Editor of Buccaneer

‘Also assuming an Editor’s position
for the year 1961-1962 is Walter
Faulkner, junior business major, and
former ‘Assistant Editor of the Buc-
caneer.

Faulkner’s experiences with pub-
Kieations is long. He was Co-Editor
of his high school yearbook, has had
experience with commercial publica-
tions, and has been connected with
the Buccaneer for the past two years.

His intentions for the ’62 Buccane-
er are to find out exactly what the
students of the college want in their
yeanbook. He feels that, “they should
be interested in this, because they
are jpaying for it.”

As for changes in the next annual,
Faulkner hopes to expand more on
studemt life. He wishes to give, as
close as space will allow, a graphic
picture of the year’s events. This
deals with the pap-rallies, the poli-
tical campaigns, the outdoor classes,
and the many other colorful events
that fill a college year.

Also in the plans for next year,
Faulkner intends to make better use
of the campus scenery, and to use as
much or more color in the yearbook.
“This will tend to give a more accu-
e account of our campus’ natural

ty.” he stated. Faulkner also

tioned thet he intends to cut out
the twelve pages of student index.
He feels that it isn’t important, be-
cause the same information is spread
‘throurhout the book and is also in

omnes

more immortant matters.

Faulkner has appointed Gale
Koonce as business manager, and the
other positions will be announced at
9 later date.

Playhouse Holds
Tryouts Tonight

Greek drama will be making its
first appearance on the East Caro-
lina College campus this spring when
the East Carolina Playhouse presents
Jean \Anouilh’s translation of Sopho-
cles’ Antigone.

The play is the last in g series of
three plays dealing with the Theban
saga—the story of Oedipus; his mar-
riage to his own mother, Jocasta; and
of the tragic deaths of his two sons,
and of his

the

daughter, Amtigone

The stery of Antigone centers
around the conflicting opinions of
Antigone and Creon, the king of The-
bes. \Aifter the deaths of Eteocles and
Polynices, Creon ordains that Eteo-
cles be buried with honors while the
corpse of Polynices be left to be
mangled by dogs and vultures. Ar-
guing the case of divine versus hu-
man or civil law, ‘Amtigone proceeds
to bury Polymices, but she is caught
and put to death, her revolt bearing
fruit only after her death.

Anouilh’s adaptation of the drama
is a contemporary treatment of the
Antigone myth. Written in modern
language and presumably for modern
dress, the play is accepted in France
as one of the modern masterpieces.
The Playhouse will combine the Greek
authenticity of scenery and costumes
with the contemporary language of
Anoualh,

On The Role Of Colleges,
Universities In Society

Note: The following is reprinted from

torial in THE BULLDOG, University
nds, California. In defining and dis-
the role of the university in society,
t plies to all institutions of higher learn-

ing.

ense

n for

cussing

(UPS)—A new wave of McCarthyism,
spread by the film “Operation Abdlition”
and such organizations as the Christian Cru-

de and the John Birch Society, is sweep-

ver the country today. These anti-com-

ist forces are directing a major portion

eir propaganda at our institutions of
higher learning.

It is ironie today when the United States
is envaged in a battle for its very existence
that those who must take the roles of leader-
ship—the edueated persons who are trained
to meet the communist challenge on all levels

are the very people coming under attack-
ind in the name of freedom.

University professors and students,
many of whom have studied communism and
its relation to the changing world situation,
are held to be those most susceptible to the
“party line.” These “misguided intellectuals”
are accused of being duped into doing the
dirty work for the communists.

These attacks on education raise a fund-
amental question: What is the role of the
University in society?

Ideally the University is a sanctuary for
truth where every idea can be explored and
challenged. However, the University is a part
of society—a society which often fears many
of the ideas discussed in the university. Often
the society is seeking to restrict this flow of
ideas and a basic conflict is set in motion.

Although it is the object of constant at-
tacks, whether they be from communist forces,
religious factions, ete., the university can
only justify its existence as long as it con-
tinues to explore all ideas in an objective
manner. The minute that it falls from its
platform of objectively and begins to propa-
gate its ideas from only one frame of refer-
ence, the university ceases to be a university
in the true sense of the word.

Since the university explores many ideas
it may be called many things by many peo-
ple. Being a member of the university com-
munity is much like living in a glass house
at which people are always throwing rocks.
When the rocks stop coming then the ideas
probably have stopped flowing from the uni-
versity and something is wrong.

However, the university must also main-
tain itself financially to provide the teachers
and books so essential to this flow of ideas.
And much of this support must come from so-
ciety—the same society that is often afraid
and distrustful of the university.

While students and faculty members may
often be individually criticized, the ad-
ministration must defend and try to make the
concept of “academic freedom” meaningful
to people who \are seeking the elimination of
ideas they do not agree with.

ROTC Pickets Military
Ball At U. Of Illinois

(US)—One dozen rebellious ROTC
students picketed the Military Ball
last week carrying such signs as
“Foreed RO Must Go,” “Educators,
Not Dictators” and “To Serve by
Choice and Not by Force.”

Members of the Students Against
Compulsory ROTC, the demonstra-
tors spent about two hours marching
first in front of the Illini Union,
then in Chempaign and finally in Ur-
bana

The action was termed a success
by the head of SACROTC. He point-
ed out that although students are
afraid to object to compulsory basic
ROTC individually, they are willing
to demonstrate in groups.

The University of Illinois is cur-
rently studying the status of its com-
pulsory ROTC program. In Decem-
ber, 1960, a faculty committee, study-
ing the ROTC program at the Uni-
versity, recommended that effective
September, 1961, basic ROTC be-
ome voluntary at the University of
Tilinois for a trial period of at least
three years.

Prior to that, in April, 1960, the
Student Senate Committee to In.
vestigate Compulsory ROTC recom-
mended the discontinuation of com-
pulsory ROTC at the University.

Lois Garren ... ‘Better Than Ever’

Playhouse Reaches Peak Of Good Drama

In its presentation of Terence Rat-
tigan’s “Separate Tables” this week
the East Carolina Playhouse has pos-
sibly reached its peak im good drama
for this year.

A well chosen cast did justice to
two well written plays in this pro-
duction.

By “well chosen” we mean that not
only did the players look their parts,

it were quite capable of playing

em as well. The best suited in this
respect was John Quinn whose slight
frame and delicate voice, with a little
makeup would have gone a long way
in | raying “an ex-public school-
YY r, eventyish, quiet and im-
ooking” even without his able
ability as an actor.

As Mr. Maleolm in Table by the
Window and later as Major Pollock
in Table Number Seven, H. D. Rowe
equaled his previous role as
Greenvald, the defense attorney, in
The Caine Mutiny Court Marshal.
Even though a little weak in his first
appearance on the stage opening
Rowe warmed up in the scenes to an
excellent level of acting which lasted
throughout the presentation of both
plays.

Playing opposite Rowe in both
plays, Lois Garren, first as Mrs.
Shankland, then as Miss Railton-Bell,
again (and probably better than ever
before on the ECC campus) demon-
strated her ability as an actress. She
is to be especially commended for
her contribution at the close of scene
IJ of Table by the Window, as is
Rowe for his acting just previous to
this. Enough action, good dialogue
and fine acting made this the best
scene of the night.

Minnie Gaster, Marilyn F. M. Gord-
ley, and S. Pat Reynolds were all ex-
cellent in their respective parts as
Lady Matheson, Mrs. Railton-Bell,
and Miss Meacham. They, like some
of the others, however, required a few

lines in the opening to warm them

Weekend Otters Famed Play;
‘Antigone’ Tryouts Tonight

By PAT HARVEY

After receiving a bruising letter
from a fellow student, several com-
ments should be stated concerning
our Student Government Association.
First, although it is evident that our
SGA has not funtioned as well as it
could ‘have, I am inclined to agree
with my fellow student that the sar-
castic notes in this column did not
help the situation. But we must re-
member that it is definitely easier to
be destructive than constructive. When
the SGA does submit an earthshak-
ing improvement or idea, then this

newspaper will probably be the first
to praise its glories.

With the entertainment exploding
on campus this week, one found that
this nights were filled by offerings
from the Playhouse, Separate Tables
nnd Simple Simon, the Pitt theatre,
Gone With the Wind, and the enter-
tainment series, J. B. Many of us are
inclined to head for the beach on the

weekend; but since J. B., a touring
Broadway show, is scheduled for Fri-
day night, we suggest that all stu-
dents see this celebrated play. The
plot and the characters are well
worth your time.

Very few of us higher intellects
notice the posters tacked all over the
campus; but if anyone wishes to wear
a cap and gown in the graduation
exercises he should order one in the
stadent store (Wright building.).

In the near future the Piayhouse
will again produce enother play.

to be quite consistent and competent
in both plays.

Of the two waitresses, Mabel and
Doreen, the character of Doreen was
the better part amd Catherine La-
baume did the better job. Her accent
was quite believable in the English
atmosphere and we caught ourselves
wondering just how long since we had
crossed the channel.

Westley Howard was much better
as Charles Stratton in the second
play, but he had a couple of good
scenes im Table by the Window too.

Sue Stocks Taylor in the role of
his girl friend (and later his wife)
was not quite as good. While her
actions and mammer on stage can be
criticized very little, her dialogue
had a few flaws from time to time

. still, these did little damage to
the over-all effect of the entire
night’s production.

The set worked fine except for the
limitations placed on it by mediocre

lighting. We never could decide if
the producer wanted us to see both
sets at once or only one of them. The
use of blue lights for scene changes,
however, was most effective.

Another lighting flaw became ap-
parent each time a character lit a
cigarette. The lights reflected the
smoke from one cigarette in such @
way that, as it drifted up, it gave
the appearance of a smoke-filled bar
instead of a hotel lounge.

In summary we may say that com-
petent direction, a well chosen cast,
good acting and an excellent play
were all combined for the best dra-
matic production the playhouse has
presented this year. We add, how-
ever, the actors and actresses deserve
a good deal more praise. We have
seen good directing and well written
plays this season but this is the first
of which we may comment, “There
was not a single POOR character
portrayed in it.”

EC Students Involved In
Accidents During Holidays

By MARCELLE VOGEL

Over the Easter Holidays several
accidents occurred imvolving stu-
dents from the college.

On Saturday, April 1, four youths
were out boating when a wave
swamped the 15-foot outboard.

Two companions reached shore af-
ter clinging desperately to a cap-
sized outboard motorboat for five
hours in the cold water. The missing
youths are Patrick Couglin and Hugh
Finch.

Arthur E. Cockrell, 21, one of the
survivors said, “After the boat tipped
ithe waves really began to kick up
and the water got cold. We were
pushing the boat to shore and in the
process ‘Couglin and Finch couldn't
meke it.”

He said Couglin end Finch “were

in pretty bad shape” when they let
go..
The other survivor is Robert Lee
Carr, who is a junior at East Caro-
lina. Couglin is a senior at the Uni-
versity of North Carclina. Both are
from Roeky Mount, N. C.

The accident occurred on the Pango
River. The Coast Guard is still sear-
ching for the missing youthe.

re Pa 03 Fatally Injured
: uesday, April 8, a id
Jacksonville woman was ad ne in-
jured near Kineton when strack by
a car being operated by Spencer Gay-
lord, a junior at Bast Carolina, and

on March 31 imvolved Jerry W. Pow-
ell, a senior at E.C., who was shot
as he was being interviewed for a
job in the N.C. National Bank in
Charlotte.

While Powell sat talking to one
of the bank officials, in an adjoin-
ing room a World War I Veteran was

talking to a trust officer about some
funds in trust.

According to a placement bureau
official a heated argument developed
between the veteran and the trust
officer, and without any warning the
veteran pulled a gun and aimed at
the officer. The officer lunged at
the veteran and the gun went off go-
img through the wall to hit the un-
aware Jerry.

Although Powell was not serious-
ly imjured, the situation could have
been fatal had not Powell rose after
the official rose, when he heard a
scuffing in the adjoining room.

Notice To Seniors

by next fall should register with
the placement office as soon as

wards, Director of Placement

well as the chances for National Collegiate Athletic Association
recognition. Doctor Ray O. Duncan, who is at the helm of the

Health and Physical Education Department at West Virginia

University was the visitor on campus last week and talked to

EC officials.
aa
Applications have been sent by college officials for admitt-
ance to the larger collegiate organizations. However, the Pirate
athlet
Confe
by the conference
ege will not be a Southern Conference member until at least two

10re years.

If East Carolina joins the NCAA it will be a defect in one
sense, because the Bucs are a member of the North State Con-
ference. Under NCAA rules, the Pirates will not be able to prac-
tice basketball in the off season, which is usually in the Spring;
the football practices held in the Winter would be limited to 20
days: it would be impossible to work out prospective athletes at
EC until admitted to the college. But the other members of the
North State, who would still be under NAIA rules and could do
the things mentioned above.

East Carolina’s primary goal after the NCAA recognition
would be to become a member of the Southern Conference. There
is always the optimistic side of the picture, if ECC is ad-
mitted, the college’s recruiting program may skyrocket, as out-
standing athletes in this part of the country is concerned. Know-
ing that the Bucs would be a future Southern Conference repre-
sentative would certainly aid the ECC scouts in receiving some
yf the top basketball and football players, because the prospec-
tive players would know that this school would be taking a big
jump, local and national, toward sports recognition.

The teams in the Southern Conference come from four
states and the District of Columbia. West Virginia usually is
the power in most sports, George Washington is the Washington,
D. C. representative. The state of Virginia has the most teams
in VPI, VMI, Richmond, and William & Mary. North Carolina’s
lone participant is Davidson, and South Carolina is represented
by The Citadel and Furman.

ECC’s admittance would give the league ten teams, and the
Pirates would not be a weak sister in the league comparing several
previous engagements with outside competition, A thundering
23-7 football win over Richmond helps prove this statement. The
1960 erid Bues could have knocked off some of the SC teams, and
so could the cagers of Coach Earl Smith. The Pirate baseball
\ine would be a power in this conference. A usually strong Uni-

ity of Delaware baseball nine took a volting 20-0 defeat at

hands of the powerful EC diamonders. Springfield College,
which has the largest P. E. department in the nation, was a 13-9
victim of the men of Coach Jim Mallory.

Hence the EC major athletic clubs have proved themselves
to be able to make creditible showings against top flight com-
petition against well established Universities and colleges outside
of the North State League. The big three sports at EC are not
the only accomplishment in athletics that have been outstanding.
The 1957 swimming team won the NAIA championship in De-
troit, Michigan. The tennis, golf, and track teams have not been
a weak sister against some of the NCAA schools.

Many people think possibly that the Pirates should with-

draw from the North State, go independent, and play under NCAA
But this would create a financial problem that the school
may not be able to solve. It does take more money to play outside

rules.

of the North State Conference than to remain in the league.

But as long as the Bucs remain in the North Carolina conference
the athletic set-up will be hindered a great deal regardless of
what happens. The plans are for the teams to cut down on their

athletic scholarships.

East Carolina certainly faces a decision that will be a big
one for the future. The guess is that EC will join the NCAA and
try to be a Southern Conference member as soon as possible de-
pending on whether the Conference’s ruling on the school hav-
ing to wait two years or not stands. If this could happen, it would
be the greatest thing that ever happened to the athletic pro-

gram in the history of the school.

Homers LeadEC Win

\All-Conference
Centerfielder
On Hitting Spree

Wally Cockrell is becoming quite a
slugger for the hard hitting Pirate
baseball nine. The versatile outfield-
er centerfielder has hit three home-
vuns in four Bue contests. Two of
‘these blasts have been at home, and
the other round tripper was hit at
Camp Lejuene against the Camp La-
juene Marines.

Wally is an all-state and all-con-
holdover from last year’s
championship nine. The veteran out-

ference

 

fielder hit .333 last season and came
up with a couple of homers. But the
slugging southpaw swinging Cock-
rell has already surpassed his home
run total of 196(

Coach Jim Mallory employs his
slugger in the number three position
in the batting order behind second
acker Spencer Gaylord, and in front
of leftfielder Gary Pierce. Wally’s
best hitting performance of the young
paign came at the expense of

ield in the Bue opener. A tri-
ple, ngle, homerun, and a walk
was quite a day for Wally.

Not only the Buc center-
fielder been hitting well for the dis-
tanee, but so has a couple of other
Pirates from last yea1’s crew. Jim
Martin, a left handed hitting first
sacker pounded a grandslammer in
the Bue’s 20-0 verdict over Delaware.
The starting pitcher of that contest,
Larry Crayton, smashed a 2 run hom-
er over the leftfield fence in the ini-
tial frame to help his own cause.
Crayton was eventually the winning
pitcher of the one-sided affair.

A big surprise for East Carolina
has been the play of Floyd Wicker a
basketball player who reported late
for practice. The lanky lefthanded
hitting Wicker is currently playing
at the hot corner position at third
base and came into his own in the
Delaware affair with three hits. One
of Wicker’s hits was a booming first
inning triple when EC scored 7 runs. |

Leftfielder Gary Pierce has been
hitting the long ball, but the big
outfield a .367 hitter last season,
and batting champion of the league
in 1960, has not connected for the
distance as yet.

Other Bue batsmen shining with the
stick have been catcher Charlie John-
son and short stop Glenn Bass, Both
players also have been outstanding
defensively thus far, as has Spencer
Gaylord the second baseman.

On the ipitching side, lefthander
Crayton has a 2-1 mark, and is the
cnly Bue imvolved in a decision of-
ficially. But Country Boykins, Na-
than Green, Lacy West, and Dan
Rouse have looked impressive in their |
outings for the men of Coach Jim
Mallory.

Boykins pitched the first of the
practice game against Delaware, and
Green hurled no hit and no run ball
against Camp Lejuene. The latter
worked the final 5 innings. West has
seen relief action in the Springfield
contest and the Delaware game. Rouse
threw the last frame in the Buc’s
20-0 decision over Delaware.

Bucs. Capture
Exibition Tilt
Over Delaware

By PARKER CHESSON

The touring Delaware baseball
team was defeated 8-6 by the East
Carolina Pirate’s in a practice game
played at College Stadium last Wed-
nesday afternoon.

Due to the two teams’ lack of ade-
quate action over the Easter holi-
days, the coaches decided to hold
this exhibition to give their boys a
chance to sharpen their batting eyes
before Thursday's regularly sched-
uled game,

Earl “Country” Boykin and lanky
basketball star Lacy West shared
the hurling duties for the Bues. Nei-
ther of the two were greatly impres-

‘sive in their appearances, but both
showed ipromise of developing into
reliable pitchers for (Coach Jim Mal-
lory’s mound corps.

Wally Cockrell, East Caroline’s fine
centerfielder, struck the decisive blow
of the game, just as he had done in
the Pirate’s two previous contests,
With the score tied in the last inn-
ing and with one mam on base, Cock-
rell lined ia tremendous shot over the
right-field fence to provide the win-
ning margin for the locals,

One of the oddities of the contest
was the lack of a plate umpire. The
catchers of the respective teams
called the balls and etrikes, plus the
decisions et home plate.

Apps Play EC Monday;
Delav:are Beaten 20-0

A seven run first inning gave East
Carolina a lead that it never relin-
quished last Thursday afternoon. The
University of Delaware team event-
ually lost 20-0. Larry Crayton start-

ed and pitched the first fiur innings.
The ace southpaw was responsible
for his second win against one set-
back.

After a couple of walks, third base-
man Floyd Wicker tripled to deep
lefitcenter driving in three Buc runs.
These tallies proved to be enough to
win, but they merely set the stage
for the other big bats of the Pirates.
Spencer Gaylord, the EC second base-
man doubled Wicker home, and then
Crayton hit a two run homer over the
left field fence.

Jim Martin, the veteran first sack-
er for East Carolina hit a grandslam
homer im the fifth to give the Bucs a
tremendous lead. This was a 330 foot
blast over the right field wall and
down the foul line. Crayton’s and
Martin’s blasts were the only home-
runs of the long afternoon.

Nathan Green replaced Crayton in
the 5th, and the righthander contin-
ued to shut out the visitors, as did
Dan Rouse, the football quarterback.
The latter hurled the final frame.
The victory was the Buc’s second

against one loss.

played AC yesterday on the latter’s
home diamond. Southpaw ace Larry
Crayton was supposed to have toed

Monday’s doubleheader will be the
first of the sort of the year for East
Carolina. Prior to the AC encounter
the Bucs had a 2-1 record, and the
Bulldog contest marked the first con-
ference tilt. Monday’s game will be the
first home conference game of the
season. East Carolina is the defend-
ing North State League champions |

and appear to be stronger than last
season’s well balanced nine.
