The course of study in comparative government and political theory and a series of lectures by eminent contemporary authorities will continue through August 16. Dr. John M. Howell and Dr. Robert Williams of the College Political Science Department are directors of the program. The purpose of the Institute is to prepare a_ selected group of teachers in the State to carry out the new approach to teaching about Communism recommended by the State Department of Pub- lic Instruction. Sponsor of the Institute is North Carolina Educational Council on National Purposes, a State-wide twenty-nine-member group ap- pointed by Governor Terry Sanford in 1962 to create and promote a program of citizenship education in North Carolina. Those enrolled in the Institute are recommended by county and city school superintendents. Their expense are provided through grants by the Junior Chamber of Commerce and other civic groups in the State. Governor Sanford said the Ins- titute “fills an important need in the educational program of North Carolina.” Indicating that ‘the best way to fight an enemy is to Communique SKOPLJE.

Jenkins spoke at the first lecture last Thurs- day night, expressing his. en- thusiasm about the workshop. Dr. Jenkins pointed out that the na- tion was not getting anywhere “by putting our heads in the sand and pretending it (Communism) doesn’t exist.” Professor William Y. Elliot was the first lecturer of the Institute. A Professor of History and Gov- ernment at Harvard, he is the author and editor of mumerous major works in his field. While a student under Elliot, John F. Ken- nedy was told by the Professor that his chances were good for the United Staites presidency. El- liot served as special advisor to Richard Nixon, former Vice Presi- dent of the United States. The visiting Professor lectured on “The Nature of the Conflict ‘etween Constitutionalism and Totalitarianism Communism.” He mentioned the Communist aggress- ion in C ba and the idealogical sh'pt between Russia and Red China. Elliot stated his position, ps bein totally acains: disarma- ment. “The Cold War,” stated the Professor, “ig a social, political, economical, and moral struggle by the human spirit.” During ‘the lec- ture, Dr. Elliot told of an evening he had snent with Joseph Stalin and of another experience with Madam Khruschev whom he called “as good a Communist as you might find.” Madam Khruschev had Hodges Blasts Law Banning Red Talks In a recent press conference in Chapel Hill, Secretary of Com- merce Luther Hodges expressed hope that the General Assembly ‘will consider modifying or elim- inating” the anti-Communist meas- ure it enacted at the conclusion of its session. The former North Carolina Governor said the law, which for- bids Communists from speaking at \Sitate-supported colleges, does not offer protection against Com- munism but serves to prevent col- leges from having “broad spectrum of speakers.” ‘TJ think this particular law is not needed and in addition will create antagonism and be injur- ious to the colleges because of the emotional reaction that people have to this kind of thing in this day,” Hodges stated. He suggested that college heads and their boards of ‘trustees be left the formation of policy on such matters. studied Abraham Lincoln, Dr. El- liot related, and she called him “a good and noble man.” Professor Elliot mentioned brief- ly the flood of obscene literature in the form of novels and other books that parade under what he called the permit of freedom. The Professor conchided his talk with a comparison of the economic progress of East and West Berlin and of the wall that he felt needed no explanation. The Institute’s second speaker, Dr. ‘Richard I. Miller, author of four books, spoke on “Comparison of American and Soviet Methods of Teaching About Each Other.” Dr. Miller reported that the Com- munist begin their indoctiination of their children in elementary school and continue thronghout their entire school career. He read to the audience the following trans- lation from a Russian _ textbook used in the sixth amd seventh grades. “The United States of America is the richest and most highly de- veloped industrial country of the capitalist world. Together with this hichky developed capitalism, the USA jis the greatest interna- tional exploiter and enemy of the people of the whole world, the rein strongheld of contemporary colonialism, and the ereator of new sources of war in various parts of the world. “For the last 100 years, the USA has repeatedly made war on other lands, while its own terri- tory remained uninvaded. How- ever, with the growth of techno- logy, the inaccessibility of the US has come to an end. The USA has colonies in the West Indies and on the islands of the Pacific. In big cities on the central streets tower gigantic houses—‘skyscrap- ers’—with many stories, and lux- orious ‘palaces’ of the million- aires, and on the outskirts of the city are dilapidated homes and pitiful huts of poor people.” Afiter talking to some Ameri- can school children who were going to school in Moscow, Dr. Miller said that the American children reported that they had never had an ideological discussion in the two years that they had been there. Soveit children are taught not to question, said Dr. Miller. He poined out the great difference between our method of encouraging voungsters to ask questiong rather than the Soviet method of having their children accept things with- out discussion. Dr. Miller, as an added feature, showed slides that were made in Russia. Russian women’s fashions proved to be quite chic.

He must be given intellectual excitement and the challenge of new Seas. He must be given enough time to read, to concentrate on a few things, without be ing shuttled from one subject to another, through- out each year. He must be allowed to work at the things which interest him most at the time they interest him the most and not to be put off by sequences of introductory, pre- liminary, and preparatory courses which have to be overc- oome before the forbidden fruit may be eaten. At least half the student momentum is lost, half his interest is destroyed by the mere fact that he must make his way through pre- liminary requirements merely in order to study what he vants to study. This is not only psychologically inept on the part of educators, but is downright unfair to the subject be- ing studied. How many times has the student heard his pro- fessor begin a course with something like this, “I know that yeu wouldn’t be here unless you had to, but we’re going to make the best of it together’? In their anxiety to eliminate the elective system and to give every student what is called a common core of identical subjects, American educators have lost track of the student himself. He is now the for- gotten man of higher education. On the college campus, his views on education are seldom considered, his help in edu- cational planning is seldom sought. Yet when it is, and when he is made responsible as a partner in the educational enter- prise. for working with the faculty, he responds directly. imaginatively, and forcefully. —Harold Taylor in “The World of the American Student” a great lady She came to East Carolina in 1928.

In the hook, he seeks the true meanings of ‘“Life—people—you—me. The will of is aggresive, and is constantly striving to bend all things to its purposes. If it is enlisted on the side of God and right, the fruits of the spirit will appear in the life; and God has appointed, “glory, honor, and peace, ito every man that worketh man good.” Nothing is more treacherous than the deceitfulness of sin. It is the god of this world that de- judes, and blinds, and leads to destruction. Satan does not enter with his array of temptations at ence. He disguises these tempta- tions with g semblance of good. He mingles with amusements and folly some little improvements, and deceived souls make it an excuse that great good is to be derived by engaging in them. This is only the deceptive part. It is Satan’s hellish arts masked. Be- guiled souls take one step, then are prepared for the next. It is so much more pleasant to fol- low the inclinations of their own hearts than to stand on the de- fensive, and resist the first in- sinuation of the wily foe, and thus shut out. his in-comings. Those who travel in the narrow way are talking of the joy and happiness they will have at the end of the journey. Their counten- ances are often sad, yet often beam with holy sacred joy. They do not dress like the company in the broad road, or talk like them, er act like them. A Pattern has been given them. A Man of sor- rows and acquainted with grief opened the road for them, and traveled it Himself. His followers see His footsteps and are com- forted and cheered. He went through safely; so can they, if they follow His footsteps. In the broad road all are oc- cupied with their persons, their cress, and the pleasures in their way. They indulge freely in hi- larity and glee, and think not of their journey’s end, of the certain destruction at the end of the path. Everyday they approach nearer their destruction; yet they madly rush on faster and faster. The holidays are approaching. In view of this fact, it will be well to consider how much money is expended yearly in making pres- ents to those who have no need of them. The habits of custom are so strong that to withhold gifts from our friends on these occasions would seem to us almost a neglect of them. Shall we not during the coming holidays present our of- ferings to God? Even the chil- dren may participate in the work, and thus it may be done for the Master. Let us remember that Christmas is celebrated in com- memoration of the birth of the world’s Redeemer. This day is generally spent in feasting and gluttony. Large sums of money are spent in needless self-indulgence. The appetite and sensual pleas. ures are indulged at the expense of physical, mental. and moral power. Yet become a habit. Pride, grati- fication of the palate have swal- this has fashion, and owed up immense sums of money that have really penefited no one, but have encouraged a prodigality of means which is displeasing. These dz seem to be spent more ir glorifying self. Many have lost their lives by over-indulgence or through demoralizing dissipation, and souls have been lost by this means. Let all those who profess to be- lieve the present truth calculate how much they spend yearly, and especially upon the recurrence of the annual holidays, for the grati- Fieation of selfish and unholy de- sires, how much in the indulgence of appetite, and how much to com- pete with others in unchristian display. {In this age of the world there is an unprecedented rage for plea- sure. Dissipation and reckless ex- travagence everywhere prevail. The multitudes are eager for amusements. The mind becomes trifling and frivolous, because it is not accumstomed to meditation, or disciplined to study. Ignorant sentimentalism is current. Too of- ten every valuable attainment is neglected for fashionable display and superficial pleasure. Demoralizing extravagance pre vails everywhere, and souls are going to ruin because of their love of display. Nobility of soul, genile- ness, generosity, are bartered away to gratify the lust after evil things. Deception and fraud have become a daily practice. Thousands sell their virtue that they may have means for following the fash- ions of the world. Such madness concerning the changing fashions should eall forth an army of re- formers who would take theiy po- sition. It is inevitable that the youth will have associates, and they will necessarily feel their influence. There are mysterious links that bind souls together, so that the heart of one answers to the heart of another. One catches the ideas, the sentiments, the spirit of anoth. er. This association may be a blessing or a curse.

Elected fresh- man class president, he recaptured the position each suceeding year. His dedication to the stage was soon apparent. The late Miss Mamie Jenkins of the Department of English was so inspired by his enthusiasm that she borrowed an- tique furniture from her friends in Greenville for use as props in his first production.

Her grandmother will entertain the bridal couple, wed- ding party, and guests at a recep- tion in her home there. When asked where they plan to honeymoon, Miss Labaume_ said with a gleam in her eye, “It’s a secret!” Miss Labaume anticipates find- ing a business job in her native counitry this fall. Her prospective hust will enter La Sorbonne (University of France) as a special student, where he will study French and drama. Miss Labaume received her bac- calaureate degree from Ecole de Haut Emseignement Commercial pour les Jeunes Filles, Paris, and from East Caroling College, she received the M.A. degree in busi- mess education in 1962. While a graduate assistant in the Department of Foreign !.:n- guages at. East Carolina, she «as a special teacher of French at the Wahl-Coates Training School on the college campus. Ag an instruc- yor at the college, she taught con- versational French. In 1963 Miss Labaume dissected a one-act play in French, “La farce du cuvier’ (“The Bathtub Farce”) which was presented by three East Caroling College stu- dents at the spring-quarter meet- ing of the Department of Foreign Languages. She organized in 1962 a Cosmo- politan Club, an organization for college foreign students who were interested in discussing and ex- changing ideas of their native countries. Approximately 20 stu- dents joined the club. The couple plan to live in France for two years. “I love America,” Miss Labaume said. “As much as { would like to return to the United States and teach French, my plans are uncertain at the pres- ent time.” “T am very grateful for my 3- year study at East Carolina Col- lege,” she concluded. “And to think it was there that I met my future husband!” took top honors at the Chapel Hill Drama Festival and, over a twen- ty-year period, produced more than one hundred and sixty plays. Be- cause of Clifton Britton, the Gold- masquers is “more than a name, more than a play; it’s a way ot life for many.” Death Came Early Before he died at the age of 52 of muscular atrophy, Britton had directed over three hundred Golds- boro productions. Probably the best known was “The Shepherd’s Song,” depicting the birth of Christ, which each year was pre- sented ito the Goldsboro popula- tion at Christmas, and sponsored by the local merchants. His work with the Miss Goldsboro Pageant brought State-wide acclaim for the local Jaycees when they re- ceived the award for the best State Pageant in 1962, the last one di- rected by “Mr. B.” Then, there was the time when Lynda Lee Mead, Miss America 1960, rose to her feet and shouted “Bravo, Bravo,” after viewing the 1960 Britton pro- duction, a masterpiece of a pag- eant. 3ritton became Director of The Lost Colony in 1955, having served as stage manager of the symphonic drama eight years prior. “He came with love and understandiing in his heart for the mystery and music and sweep of The Lost Colony.” He became an_ institu- tion; this season marked the first year in the last sixteen he was absent from the production. “Mr. B,” as he was affectionate ly known, was rewarded several times for his outstanding work.

Teachers reed to know more about the sub- in order to answer the ques- 1s. We are faced with the prob- of communication in all of the world, he explained audience, and this has re- 1 in the Information Agency ipling the amount of language chooling available. All around the vlobe, people are interested in learning English in order to have access to higher education, better j and greater internaltipnal uobility. Mr. Vetter stressed the import- ance of not only pointing out Com- munist falsehoods and broken promises, but to accompany these illustrations with a postive alter- native. He explained the need for Americans to be more skillful in communicating the ideas of demo- ey in the competition for the ninds of men. . The greatest appeal of Soviet Russia, said Mr. Vetter, 1s the promise to emerging nations to skip the capitalist stage er opment and move on to a “higher form of socialism. He emphasized that there are countries that are ripe to be led and that we must convince them that capitalism is . better form than socialism, not iuerely a stage to be skipped. Americans suffer from what Mr, Veiter called “conscience sickness, he said. This is the attitude of “who are we to tell Pakistan this co, that.” We all have our own troubles. He explained that this comes from comparing Pakistan to the US when there is no comparl- upon advan e id in English, a reading programs, and effective methods of teaching litearture.
