He should also be encouraged to visit such progressive eastern North Carolina communities as Wilson, CAROLINIAN Rocky Mount, Roanoke Rapids, Kinston, Goldsboro, and Farmville. If Mr. Grimes wants to make a constructive protest, he could ask why North Carolinians have the third highest state-taxes per pers- on in the nation, and why with these revenues plus a 3% food tax we wallow among the bottom 45 of the 50 states in all state sup- ported undertakings? One will agree that reform is needed—starting at the top. The way Governor Sanford took the state for granted and merely talked down to the voters on the recent bond issue and the manner in which Mr Grimes takes our ig- morance for granted and talks down to his readers, are indicative of such need. Mr. Willy Alligood will come along, only if the leadership (frora the top) is enlightened, patient and understanding. “Liberal and honest progress” will be made only when the terms are defined and a clear choice for the future is intelligently presented. Such primary problems as satisfactory race relations and the need for a virile two-party sys- tem in the South must first be met. Then the southern people, with a united and well represented front will proceed to their un- limited destiny. By extending the courtesy to overlook the editor’s comments about the magazine’s contributors (page 31), we may conclude that Mr. Grimes has, at least, made a serious attempt to be serious, and that should be complimented, for it is rare among the students Jat ECC (football stadiums ex- cluded, of course). It is with regret that the result is found, therein, unfortunate. The conclusion of the Rebel Re- view will appear in the next edi tion of the East Carolinian. = Se ee oy DELICIOUS FOOD SERVED 24 HOURS Air Conditioned Carolina Grill Corner W. 9th & Dickinson (Author of “Barefoot Boy With Cheek” ,“The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis” , etc.) FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA America is a great country. America’s cities are full of houses. America’s forests are full of trees. America’s rivers are full of water. But it is not houses and trees and water that make America great; it is curiosity—the constant quest to find answers—the endless, restless “Why?” “Why?” “Why?”. Therefore, when I was told that Marlboro was a top seller at colleges from USC to Yale, I was not content merely to accept this gratifying fact, I had to find out why. I hied myself to campuses in every sector of this mighty land. First, I went to the Ivy League—dressed, of course, in an appropriate costume: a skull-and-bones in one hand, a triangle in the other, a mask-and-wig on my head, a hasty pudding in my chops. “Sir,” I cried, seizing an Ivy Leaguer by the lapels, which is no mean task considering the narrowness of Ivy League lapels, but, I, fortunately, happen to have little tiny hands; in fact, I spent the last war working in a small arms plant where, I am proud to say, I was awarded a Navy “EB” for excellence and won many friends—“‘Sir,” I cried, seizing an Ivy Leaguer by the lapels, “how come Marlboro is your favorite filter cigarette?” “Tm glad you asked that question, Shorty,” he replied. “Marlboro is my favorite filter cigarette because it is the filter cigarette with the unfiltered taste.” “Oh, thank you, sir!” I cried and ran posthaste to several campuses in the Big Ten, wearing, of course, the appropriate costume: a plaid Mackinaw, birling boots, a Kodiak bear and frost-bitten ears. Spying an apple-cheeked young coed, I tugged my forelock and said, “Excuse me, miss, but how come Marlboro is your favorite filter cigarette?” “I’m glad you asked that question, Shorty,” she replied. “Marlboro is my favorite filter cigarette because the flavor is flavorful, the flip-top box flips and the soft-pack is soft.” “Oh, thank you, apple-cheeked young coed,” I cried and bobbed a curtsey and sped as fast as my little fat legs would carry me to several campuses in the Southwest, wearing, of course, the appropriate costume: chaps, canteen, and several oil leases. Spying a group of undergraduates singing “Strawberry Roan,” I removed my kat and said, “Excuse me, friends, but why is Marlboro your favorite filter cigarette?” “We are glad you asked that question, Shorty,” they replied. Marlboro is our favorite filter cigarette because we, native sons and daughters of the wide open spaces, want a cigarette that is frank and forthright and honest. We want, in short, Marlboro.” “Oh, thank you, all,” I cried and, donning a muu muy, I set gail for Hawaii, because in Hawaii, as in every state where Old Glory flies, Marlboro is the leading seller in flip-top box. On campus, off campus, in all fifty states, wherever people smoke for pleasure in this great land of ours, you will find Marlboro. © 1961 Max Shulman ea ek And you will also find another winner from the makers of Marlboro—the king-size, unfiltered Philip Morris Commander, made by a new process to bring you new mildness. Have a Commander. Welcome aboard, EAST CAROLINIAN Page 4 a ELLOS A See iabammiiintees ~ SPORTS HIGHLIG#; \ By B. D.
