Adelaide Bloxton, Miss Maria

Christenbury, O. A. Hankner,
and Miss Velma Lowe rendered
the decision after considering
the gas and tire shortage.
Both graduate and under-
graduate students will be glad
to learn that the annual Home-
is ming Day will be used with
Alumni Day. which is scheduled
for the day preceeding gradua-
te n in the spring. East Caro-
lina graduates are being urged
to make plans to meet their
friends on the campus next
spring at this new event.
Homecoming Day last year
was one of the most outstand-
ing in the history of the school.
The all-day program included a
welcome by President Leon R.
Meadows, an address by Mrs.
J. C. Holland, president of the
East Carolina Teacher's Col-
lege Alumni Association, and
special music by the college
orchestra and chorus.
Highlighting the afternoon
program was the clash between

In describing the hardships

grey-green eyes and a healthy
complexion, related an incident
with a Nazi. Jenny was walk-
ing with a Jewish boy friend,
when the Nazis, mistaking her
for an Aryan, ordered her com-
panion to leave her, which he
refused to do. After some de-
bate the member of the Nazi
party threatened to take the

Commenting on the Nazi pro-

it is "very, very effective. The

leaders want them to She ex-
plained that in 1938 the German
people were not allowed to lis-
ten to the Moscow radio on
penalty of death, and were not
supposed to listen to French
and English broadcasts. Many
of them listened to the Luxem-
burg programs. From those
stations they heard news and
foreign music, including Ameri-
can favorites such as "Bye,
Bye, Blues, and "You Are My

Jenny and her parents were

Twenty seniors will represent
East Carolina Teachers College
in Who's Who Among Students
in American Colleges and Uni-
versities this year, selected on
the basis of their scholastic
record and participation in
extra-curricular activities.
Gilbert Britt, an alumnus of T,hese outstanding seniors were
several years, visited on the Khofn by � Joint faculty-stu-
campus recently. He is an En der tte
sign in the U. S. Navy and has
been on foreign duty for some
time. While here he spent an
evening with his teacher friends
in Ragsdale Hall telling them
of his experiences. He is
a special friend of several of
the teachers, having made an
early acquaintance with them
as their gardener during his
freshman year.

Albert Spalding, proclaimed
by critics as America's fore-
most violinist, will appear in
concert in the Wright Auditor-
ium next Thursday evening at
8:30, opening the season of en-
tertainments. For thirty years,
Mr. Spalding has been playing
before audiences of the world,
making his name first in Eu-
rope and then in America.
Being a son of a wealthy and
distinguished family, he found
the beginning difficult, for most
people who knew his back-
ground refused to take him
seriously.
Mr. Spalding was born in
Chicago, August 28, 1888. He
asked for a violin at the age of
seven, on an impulse probably
coming from his having seen a
wandering street fiddler with a
monkey. That first violin cost
four dollars.
At first Mr. Spalding did not
like to practice, but later he was
graduated from Balogna Con-
servatory at the age of fourteen
with the highest honors ever ac-
corded any one since Mozart.
Mr. Spalding made his pro-
fessional debut in Paris at the
Nouveau Theatre and his Amer-
ican debut in Carnegie Hall,
New York, as a soloist with the
New York Symphony Orches
tra, conducted by Walter Dam-
rosch.
He is the only American
violinist and one of five world-
famous violinists who has ever
appeared at the famous Scula
Opera House in Milan.

Literary Societies Stage
Week Membership Drive
Literary societies began their
programs for this year with a

initiations on October 9 and 10.
Each society boasts a greater
membership than that of last
year. Poe leads with 168 mem-

Leigh Humphries, vice-presi-
dent; Billie Bryan, secretary;
Saddie Ruth Sutton, treasurer;
Miss Velma Lowe, sponsor.
Poe initiation began Satur-

day morning at 7:00 o'clock.
Pledges met in Austin for in-
structions for the day's activi-
ties. They were ordered to ad-
dress all old members as "miss
and to kneel when they met
them saying, "O worthy Poe, I
am but a meek and lowly
worm and to obey any com-
mand given. All meals during
the day were eaten with a knife.
New members had to wear
their hair combed straight down
in Veronica Lake style, a red
ribbon tied in a bow around
their necks, and dress in at
least four clashing colors with
mismatched shoes. They had to
whiten their eyebrows and wear
rouge in a V shape on their
cheeks, and they carried their
make-up and coin purses tied in
a kerchief at the end of a long
stick. Final initiation was
a smipe hunt that left the new
Poes holding the bag at the

Calling All Musicians!
This campus well boost one of the fin-

very capitable person at the head, and a
likewise capitable staff. There is much talk
about the need for equipment in various
fields on the campus. Likewise the Music
department has it's needs. However, at the
present time there are not only enough in-
struments in the department, but many are
lying idle in their cabinets upstairs in the
Campus Building.
Of course, the finest musician would
probably have some trouble playing on some
of the instruments, but you could do quite
well with some. No doubt there are many
students who played in their high school
band, but who haven't joined the band here.
If you can play, but haven't joined the band,
you are-indirectly keeping others from hear-
ing the band in concert. You see, instru-
ments are vey tempermental. They will not
play by themselves. They need someone to
play them. Along with the instruments go
a fine director, a few faithful members, and

So You Cut Classes?
Just exactly what do you come to col-
lege for? Do you come to spend all your
class time in the "Y" store, or down town
at a movie? Do you come to make friends,
or to catch a husband (or wife). Or do
you really come to get an education? It
seems as though the majority does not fall
in the latter group.
It is an everyday thing to hear some-
body say, "I declare I just don't feel like
going to History today "I haven't gotten
my math, I don't think I will go this morn-
ing "Let's cut English this afternoon and
play cards "I'm so tired of studying I
could scream, I'm just not going to Science
Of course there are many, manv other rea-
sons, excuses and comments. Whether you
go to class or not is your own business
We do not mean to be telling vou what to
do, for all of us have cut classes somp time
or other. However, real disadvantages of
promiscuous class cutting has apparently
escaped most students.
If your parents are sending you to
school, or if you are working your way
through, you owe it to them and yourself
to make the most of college.

When a student wears a nigh school let-

OF TIME AND THE MOVIES
It is here again! Yes, that old problem
concerning shows at E. C. T. C. Last year
it seemed that the local theatre manager
"took the rap" for a bad situation on at
least one occasion. There were speeches,
boycott, and plenty of action. Did it get us
better movies? That is the question. Per-
haps it helped then. We wonder what the
trouble is now. No doubt, some of the fresh-
men are wondering how the pictures shown
last year could have been worse than the
ones scheduled through October of this
year.
The persons responsible for the selec-
tion of pictures to be shown at the college
have a real problem. We should realize that
Often good pictures are scheduled only to
be cancelled upon short notice. That means
that a less desirable picture must be shown
if one is shown at all. If an honest effort
fails to schedule a good picture for a certain
date, I say give us no picture at all on that
Saturday night. Someone might say, "Well

current intramural touch foot-

After only two minutes of
play, Captain Waters heaved an
18-yard aerial to Douglas Eley
deep in the end zone to open
scoring for the afternoon. Wa-
ters' drop-kick try for extra
point was wide, and the Squad-
ron led 6-0.
It was a short-lived lead,
however, with the Cadets com-
ing back to knot the count two
minute later. Nick Zuras faded
to his own 25 and tossed 30
yards to Walter Mallard, who
gathered in the ball on the
Eagle Squadron 45 and raced
remaining distance to score
without an opposing player
near him. Place-kick try for
conversion was blocked.
In the second period the
Cadets forged ahead when a

A BUSINESS REPORT
Acting upon a decision reach-
ed in the business meeting of
the executive board of the
Alumni Association at com-
mencement last June, the presi-
dent of the association, Mrs. J.
C. Holland of Raleigh, appoint-
ed a subcommittee to select a
person to fill the place of alum-
ni secretary made vacant by the
resignation of Miss Estelle
McClees.
This subcommittee started to
work immediately and worked
untiringly until October with-
out securing a secretary that
the committee thought would
fill the place successfully for
some time. Then the committee
consulted the faculty advisory
committee as to the best policy
to pursue.
It is the judgment of the two
groups that for the present it
is best to use a well trained col-
lege girl who is majoring in
English and commerce to carry
on the office work of the asso-
ciation, paying her by the hour
Clem Garner (Ruth Blanch-
hard), vice-president; Miss
Elizabeth Deal, secretary; Miss
Grace Smith, treasurer; Mrs.
Mildred Tucker Owens, report-
er. Members of the program
committee are: Mrs. E. T.
Stafford (Lessie Mae Jen-
nings), chairman; Mrs. Ed
Hester (Eleanor Cuthrell), and
Miss Deanie Boone Haskett.
Following are some of the
men alumni, now in service,
who have visited the campus
recently:

tenant in the U. S. Army Air
Force, stationed at Lubbock,
Texas; and Robert Hollar, Pri-
vate First Class, who is station-
ed at Alberdeen, Maryland,

spring graduate and was the
first to graduate from this col-
lege in uniform. George Lau-

Pictures were taken Saturday
afternoon of the new members

In his letters he writes about
the parrots and cockatoo (a
native bird) ; asks about E. C-
T. C. and wants to know
especially about the football
team.
Ronald was a frequent visi-
tor on the campus last year
while he was stationed at the
New River Marine Base. He at-
tended many dances at the
Campus Building and was al-
ways welcomed by a host of
friends.
Jim Slay, older son of Dr.
and Slay, is teaching at the Ma-
personnel directors of large
concerns all over the country

ployment.
Composing the committee
who selected the East Carolina
students of this year were Miss
Ola Ross, assistant registrar;
Miss Annie L. Morton, dean of
women; Dr. Herbert Rebarker,
dean of men; Estelle Davis,
president of the Women's Stu-

On a second return trip from
Russia to England the ship
brought passengers, many of
whom were survivors of torpe-

to Russia. Among them was an

and feet had been frozen and
had to be amputated. Gilbert

Greenville Chapter Meeting�
The Greenville E. C. T. C.
Alumni chapter held its first
fall meeting Friday night, Oc-
tober 9. Mrs. R. W. Davenport
(Doris Nichols) the new presi-
dent, presided. Plans were
made for the work to be car-
ried on during the fall months.
It was decided that the chapter
would sponsor a bridge tourna-
ment for the November meet-
ings.
Miss Emma Hooper, a mem-
ber of the faculty advisory com-
mittee for the association, gave
a most interesting and inspir-
ng talk on the work of the asso-
ciation. At the conclusion of her
talk she urged the members to
keep the Alumni Office posted
on all available news concern-
ing Greenville young men in the
armed services.
Light refreshments were ser-
ved at the close of the meeting.
Hostesses were Mesdames E T
