good cheer to oui fighting men

work).
The sending of a million j
Chesterfields, week after week
to 50.000 fighting men, mi
foreign bases where smokes arej
hard to get and supplies not too j
frequently delivered, is largely I
the result of the radio public s
interest in Chesterfield's out-
standing radio shows.
Since last November, Fred
Waring has been devoting his
entire 15-minute broadcast to
"Victory Tunes playing and
singing songs selected by the
men in our Service Camps aad
dedicating each program to one
of the camps or posts. So en-
thusiastic ha been the response
to this feature that Waring has
enough requests on file to con-
tinue his salutes for months to
come.
To date, eight new service
songs have been written and
esentod bv Fred Waring and
far this year 110 different
Camps have voted on what thev
wanted Waring to play and
then tuned in to hear the re
suit. The songs written include
"Skv Anchors" for Naval Avia-
tion; "Roll Tanks Roll" for the
Armored Forces; "Look Out Be-

Auditorium. There will be a
matinee at 3:00 primarily for
children, and an evening per-
formance at 8:30 for college
students and the general public.
Year before last hundreds of
children and adults enjoyed a
children's theatre group of na-
tional reputation in "Alice in
Wonderland and last year a
still more enthusiastic recep-
ti n was given the play "Little
: Black Sambo" produced by a I
college group under the direc-j
ion of Clifton Britton who was
I doing graduate work last year.
This year's play is the fami-
liar tale of the beautiful prin-
; cess who, under a magic spei
, fell asleep along with every
living thing in the castle, and
remained wrapped in dreams
until awakened by Prince
Charming who alone could
break the spell.
The director promises that
the production will surpass

and beauty. Both actors and
production staff for the play

Miss Iouise Williams, a
YWCA adviser, talked on the
matter of friendliness between
students and teachers, discuss-
ing the possible barriers be-
tween the two pointing out
things that should draw them
together, and suggesting vari-
ous means of building continu-
ally more cordial relationships,
Ij" at the Vesper hour, April 19.
Miss Williams, discussing the
topic given her, began by sug-
gesting three questions, the
answers to which might throw
light on the matter.
First, she inquired, are there
barriers in the way to real
friendliness? Her answer was
that most of things which seem
to divide, such as age and lack
of understanding, but imagi-
nary. She did point out that cer-
tain real barriers exist tempor-
arily at times, as when the limit-
ed mental, spiritual, and physi-
cal energy of the teacher and
the number of calls on her at a
given time must necessarily
limit her power to respond for
the time being.
She then discussed whether
or not there are things that
make friendliness the natural
attitude between students and
teachers. Neither can get along
without the other; intelligence
is supposedly common to both;
they are together often, speak
the same lanaguge, and have
common interests and a com-
mon goal. Thus, she said, the
things that draw us together
are greater than those that

The 900 East Carolina stu-
dents will go to the polls in the
Women's Student council room
(22 Austin) between nine a. m.
and six p. m. Wednesday to
choose the major student offi-
cers in the first election to be
held under the new Student Co-
operative Government associa-
tion.
Interest has settled on the
race for the presidency of the
combined student body, in
which strong campaigns are be-
ing made by the supporters of
Candidates Carlyle Cox and
Willie Mae Daniels. Signs and
speeches have been rampant on
the campus for the past week.
Carlyle and Willie Mae, rising
juniors, have been proved cap-
able of holding the office.
In connection with the stu-
dent elections a "Citizenship
Day" has been declared for
Wednesday. Classes will be at-
tended only in the morning, the
afternoon being used for clean-
ing up the campus and for
voting. The Australian ballot
system will be used for the vot-
ing. Because of the number of
offices and candidates, the bal-
lots will be divided into three
parts.
Running for the important
post of vice-president of the
SCGA are Virginia Cooke,
Dorothy Lewis and Joyce Wat
son. Chairman of the Women's
judiciary committee is Jane

Student Body Hears
Campaign Speeches
Candidates for Student Gov-
ernment offices and their sup-
porters were given an opportun-
ity to speak before the student
body the past Wednesday eve-
ning at a mass meeting in the
Austin auditorium. Estelle Da-
vis, outgoing president of the
Women's Student Government
Association, introduced each of
the candidates in turn and in-
vited them to address the stu-
dents.
Political discussion began
with presentation of Carlyle
Cox and Willie Mae Daniels,
nominees for president of the
new Student Cooperative Gov-
ernment Association. Following
brief talks by the rival candi-
dates, the President opened the
meeting for discussion which
was keynoted by Bessie Fay
Hunt, speaking for Willie Mae,
and James Worsley for Carlyle.
Candidates Tor the offices of
vice-president, secretary, His-
torian, treasurer, assistant
treasurers, and student mem-
bers of the Student-Faculty
committee were introduced and
in some cases took the opportun-
ity to express their willingness
to apply their abilities to the
service of the students if elec-
ted. Because of the large num-
ber of students running for the
sixteen positions as marshais,
they were only asked to stand
upon being introduced.
Nominees for cheerleaders,
including some nominated at
the meeting in accordance with
a suggestion made by Harry
Jarvis, were given a chance t:
demonstrate in leading cheers
before the student body.
Students campaigning for
positions on the Teco Echo and
Tecoan were next presented t"
the assembly. The remainder of
the meeting was devoted to the
presentation and discussion of
candidates for positions on the
Men's and Women's Judiciaries.

Qualifications for the various student
officers should be carefully considered
when ECTC students go to the polis next
Wednesday. Every student should read con-
scientiously in his copy of the constitution

posts and for the offices as a whole. It is a
definite requirement that any student offi-
cer must have a scholastic average of at
least a "3 Some knowledge of parliamen-
tary procedure is required of the presidents

Chi Pi Play
Deserves A Hand
Last Thursday and Friday nights Chi
Pi play. "Ladies in Retirement" was given
with the greatest success. The first produc-
tion of the year and under the new director
really deserves a hand As the reputation of
these plays given by the campus dramatic
club has always been far above reproach, it
is good to see this group carrying on in the
commendable way they are. Miss Ellen
Caldwell really did a splendid piece of work
in directing, staging, and working out the
excellent lighting affects. Mr. Denton Ros-
sell aided with the production and his ser-
vices were well rended. The cast introduced
some newcomers to the ECTC stage and we
will be wanting to see more of them. Each
was equally good in his or her part, and we
wish them luck in future performances. The
director, the stage crew, and the actor?.
"Some people in the world today do not
agree with Thomas Jefferson that certain
truths are 'self-evident, that all men are
created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain inalienable
rights, that among these are Life, Liberty,
and the Pursuit of Happiness said Dr.
A. D. Frank as he began his discussion of
the news in the college assembly, Tuesday,
April 14, by commenting on the two hun-
dredth anniversary of the birth of that great
patriot.
The speaker referred to the Constitu-
tion as one of Jefferson's contributions to
the whole world, saying that its influence
had not been confined to this country, but
that it had been "a beacon light to the op-
pressed of the world and he went on to
say. "I commend it to you as a document
well worth your reading
In turning to the new ship-building re-
cord in March. Dr. Frank observed that the
most crucial battle being waged today is that
on the seven seass between the submarine
and merchant shipping. At the present
moment it seems that it will be determined
by this country's succeeding in building
ships faster than they can be sunk or in fail-
ing in that attempt.
He made the record of 146 ships, a total
of 1.516.00 tons launched in March, more
significant by pointing out that such a year-
ly rate of over 18.000.000 tons for 1943 alone
exceeds the total tonnage of the merchant
marine of this country in 1089 and is not
far short the 21,000,000 tons owend by the
Great Britain in that same year.
"Germany is still building submarines
faster than we are sinking them, but the
Government cannot announce the total num-
ber of sinkings he explained. "The facts
might help the morale of the German pepole
too much
Dr. Frank warned against being too
easily over -optimistic or pessimistic, saying
that the attitude of the American public, is
very fickle.
Facing the fact that in any case, where-
ever an invasion is made the hardest fight-
ing lies ahead, and many of the boys will not
be coming back, he urged that fhose at home
not feel too sorry for those who don't come
back, that thev realize that those who give
their lives will have made a real contribu-
tion, and that those at home put forth every
effort to see that they make their own con-
tribution or the home front.
Entertaing the boys over the weekend
and being nice to them is fine on the side, he
addd, but a real contribution means buying
bonds and stamps, folding bandages, and
knitting sweaters.
Before commenting on recent very suc-
cessful ai rraids over Germany, Dr. Frank
said that while the air force was doing the
spectacular part of the fighting, in the last
analysis, in his opinion the war would be
w on b tin ground forces, as the war in Rus-
sia seems to be proving.
The British and American air forces are
able to do what he called complementary
bombing. The RAF big bombers, capable of
carrying great loads of bombs, go over at
night, flying lo wto avoid anti-aircraft fire,
and ropping bombs in the general location of
their targets. American high altitude bomb-
ers fly over in the day, and with their very
fine bombsight do precision bombing. The
very fast, very light new wooden planes of
the British, known as mosquito planes, like
wise fly in the day. at housetop altitudes,
and destroy such things as bridges, troop
trains, and locomotives.
The fact that so little is heard of the
German Air Force may say that they are
short on oil and gasoline, or that are short
on trained pilots, or that they are saving
their planes for an all-out offensive during
the summer.

closing, "in Russia, and on all fronts 'Gen-
eral Mud' is in charge

Sink Or Swim!
by Harold K. Taylor
For four long years I've waited to see
someone fall into the goldfish pool in
Wright Circle�now that I've seen mermaid
Freida Davis and merman Harry Willey
come from the slimy green water, I can say
that my education at ECTC is almost com-
plete.
It was after supper one of those warm
evenings last week when this exciting event
took place. I had walked down to Cotten
with that quiet group of girls I eat with and
as we loitered in front of Cotten we heard
an outcry of excitement and a splash com-
ing from the direction of the pool.
Someone shouted, "Somebody fell into
:he pool By the time that sentence was
'inished everyone within hearing and seeing
listance were hastily approaching the scene
of action.
Freida Davis was gleefully wading
around amid the frightened goldsfish. Final-
ly when she thought her hilarious specta-
tors had laughed enough for their own good,
she came out of the water.
While Freida was having such a hectic
time in the pool, Priviate-to-be Harry Wil-
ley was sitting on the sidelines laughing at
his good-fortune. The girls, Freida and
�Cherry, had tried to push Harry in but he

Mrs. Ruth Everett, 0PA
Worker, Speaks To AAUW
Mrs. Ruth Yick Everett, information
officer of the OPA spoke March 23, to the
Greenville branch of the AAUW on the close
relation of the OPA to the life of every mem-
ber of the group she was addressing and
every person in the community, and its rela-
tion to the whole national economy.
She emphasized especially the part
each individual must play in the work of the
OPA.
"It will succeed or fail she said, "not
in Raleigh or Washington, D. C, but in
Greenville, and Pitt County.
It must depend on the cooperation of
:he individual. The speaker then went on to
iiscuss the work of the home front and say
;hat the people here can cause the men at the
'ront to lose the war.
She took up in detail the contribution
women at home can make by conservation of
food and clothing.
She showed in vivid detail the necessity
of price control, pointing out that there is
an inflationary gap at present of some twen-
ty-five billion dollars beween money in the
hands of the people to be spent and the
amount of goods available for purchase.
"We have let inflation come to us she
said, "but it is a controlled inflation
She then took up the work of the OPA,
explaining what it is doing and why it is do-
ing it, and asking the help of each person
present in making it work. When you do not
g-et what you want from your local board
and feel impatient, she said, remember that
its members are giving their time and en-
ergy to helping your community share
equally in scarce commodities that it is a
committee of neighbors trying to maintain
a sound, wholesome, economy for the com-
munity.

turned the tables on them and landed Frei-
da in the wet spot.
Freida isn't one to give up so easily so
with the help of Cherry she proceded to
drag Harry to the brink of the pool. In the
clamor poor Freida tripped and for the sec-
ond time made a beautiful swan dive into
the green water, being followed by the not-
so-fortunate Harry. It would have been a
four-star show if Cherry had gone in too.
Dripping from head to toe Freida left
the hysterical bystanders and the last we
heard from here she was combing goldfish
)ut of her hair.
Alumni Sons, Daughters
Elect Officers
The Alumni Daughters and Sons met
in the "Y" hut Thursday night and elected
officers for the coming year. They were as
follows: President, Hazel Williford; vice-
president, Hazel Jones; secretary, Vivian
Yelverton; treasurer, Hilda Moore; report-
er, Elizabeth Bridgers.
After the elections the club enjoyed a
social hour consisting of impromtu debates,
stunts, and songs.
by Associated Collegiate Press
A Minneapolis newspaper columnist,
and music critic on the side, received the
following letter irom an undergraduate:
"BEING ENGAGED on a senior thesis
on necracism, in' which the relationship of
Hitler to Wagner's music plays a part, and
having heard that some years ago you did
some special research on Richard Wagner,
I am interested (for I always prefer ani-
mate sources of information to inanimate)
in your personal interpretation of this
rather ambivalent character T would espe-
cially like to have you explain Wagner to me
in terms of metopolitics, nationalistic retro-
version, racialist mysticism, and psyco-
pathic diabolism. I am of the belief that the
'meta' theory is the key to the attraction
which Wagner's music holds for Hitler.
Anything further that you might have to
say concerning Wagner's place in the scheme
of irrationalism general would be apprecia-
ted. Please let me hear from you, if at all
possible, by next mail
And answered it as follows:
"DEAR SIR:
"While the 'meta' theory is undoubtedly
a key, in part, to Wagner's racialist mys-
ticism, I think you have erred in not allow-
ing sufficiently for the psychoehoreographiv
tendencies exhibited, for example, in the
'Bacchanale which proves to me that at
this period of his life the bent of his mind
was biopolitical. Evidences of geometabol-
ism, too, abound in his third phase, partic-
ularly in "Gotterdammerung' and confute
the easy hypothesis that his earlier pyro-
manism was either consistently retrorsive,
regressive or panegyristic. Ethnogrophic
predispositions Mediterranean in character
rather than Nordic are noticeable in the
'Volsung' theme and may anticipate, to
some degree, the affinity between Musso-
lini and Hitler, although the archivist Toy-
buckmaster has noted that Wagner used
long slurs over this theme and conceives that
this might have been intended as an antici-
patory slur upon Hitler's future all, Italy.
Here scholars disagree. However, the point
is incontrovertibe that the eupectic is absent
in Wagner's metapolitical and psychoagro-
nomist horizon which sufficiently explains
the polarity of the Hitler-Rosenbery poli-
tico-ceramics and the occasional Wagne;
fugal obsessions, not to say aberrations. 1
trust this completely clears everything up.
"Fraternally yours.

A. L. Dittmer
Gives Fine Recital
A.
In a most enjoyable concert, April 14.
L. Dittmer. voilinist. and Mrs. Marv
Bertolet Smith, accompanist, presented a
program that showed great command of the
instruments and musical interpretation of
high order.
The playing of Mr. Dittmer, who is
head of the music department, was marked
by strength and smoothness Especially in
Mendelssohn's" "Concerto in E Minor" did he
show fine feeling for the beauty of the com-
position and skill in the intricate technique
this composition demands.
A Zimbalist number, "Suite in Ancient
Style gave a satisfying sense of contrast
and coordination in the arrangement of its
numbers and the handling of its melodies.
The last two groups were composed of
shorter more familiar numbers. Among
them an audience favorite was Dreiser's
"Caprice Viennois "Falling Leaves bv
Stoessel, was interpreted as a poem in
sound, and the carefree rhythms and folk-
songs melodies of Spalding's "Alabama"
were notable.
Mrs. Smith's complete sympathy with
the soloist, and her flawless rhythm, as al-
ways, added greatly to the pleasure of the
audience.
Mr. Dittmer responded generously with
encores.
The program was a presentation from
the music department of East Carolina
Teachers College, for the Greenville Art
Festival, and had as co-sponsors the Wo-
man's Club of Greenville.

Opportunities for college stu-
dents to work their way through
school were never more plenti-
according to Frank S. Endi-j
cott, director of Northwestern
university's placement bureau,
who reports that since the wai j
students have their pick of jobs
offering valuable experience in
essential businesses and indus '
tries.
Tin- pre-war student who
worked his way by selling mag-
azine subscriptions, shoveling,
snow, firing furnaces and jerk
ing sodas has been replaced b
the student working on a joe
thai will help him make good
in a career even before he is
graduated.
A survey of jobs offered stu-
dents since the opening of
school last fall reveals that
1,900 positions were available,
with only 1.20O students to fill
them. Nearly all the jobs, al-
though part-time, provided
special experience.
"In the past Endicott said.
"we had to find jobs for stu-
dents. Now we can't find stu-
dents for the jobs. This situa-
tion provides the placement
bureaus of colleges with an op-
portunity to become vocational
guidance centers. Before the
war all we could do in most
cases was to see that the stu-
dents got some kind of a job.
Now we can try to adapt dif-
ferent students to various kinds
of jobs that coincide with theii
occupational interests
This situation holds true for
women students as well as for
men. Fndicott said. Especially
wanted are women with some
professional, secretarial o r
technical training and to supply
this need Northwestern uni-
versity has instituted nearly
150 courses designed to train
women for war service, indus-
try and community work.
Although many men students
expect to be called into the ser-
vice soon, they are confident
that their part-time work ex-
periences will aid them when
they return after the war.
Meanwhile women will have
an opportunity to fit into posi-
tions previously held chiefly by
men.
A typical list of openings fo�-
women includes jobs for steno-
graphers, saleswomen, chem-
ists, engineers, statisticians, ac-
countants, laboratory assistants.
X-ray technicians and other
positions where the manpower
shortage is most acute.
In the first performance this

I some of the lighter moments of
i the play. A second performance
'was given on Friday evening,
April 16.
The play, a tragic story of the
devotion of an older woman to
two half-imbecile younger &is-
I ters left in her care, was given
much of the proper mood by the
artistic setting worked out by
j members of the Chi Pi group
and Mr. and Mrs. Denton Rus-
sell. The director. Miss Ellen
.Caldwell of the mathematics
faculty of the college, had pre-
I pared each of the characters to
make his contribution t o t he
building up of the plot, the
reality of the characterizations,
and the unbroken suspense that
held the audience to the close.
Members of the cast not from
Greenville were Hazel Harris,
the older sister; Mary Alice
Charlton, the murdered woman;
Billy Greene, the Nephew of the
sisters; Mozelle Hooks, the
youngest sister.

The WAVES is an organiza-
tion of women whose job is to
replace Navy Men at shore
stations. The SPARS is an or-
ganization of women whose job
is to replace Coast Guard men
at shore stations.
As a member of the WAVES
or SPARS, you can wear the
same Navy blue, win the same
ratings and earn the same pa
as America's finest fighting
men.
And you'll hold the same
shore jobs that are now filled
by men. At Navy and Coast (
Guard bases throughout the
continental United States,
WAVES and SPARS do all
types of office work. They also
are needed for important posts
in mechanics and aviation
ground work�as machinists,
for example, or as operators of
the Link Trainer, that amazing
device which teaches future
Navy pilots the principles of
flying. Other women are need-
ed for various special or techni-
cal positions.
Whatever your work, where-
ever you go, you can be sure
that you are performing a very
real, very vital service for your
country. It won't be any picnic
It's not a part-time "glamour"
job�and it's not meant to be.
You are as much a member of
the service as any man with the
fleet. It's full-time work. It wil'
be haul work. But as you're the
sort of woman who loves Amer-
ica and honors the brave men
lighting to keep it free, it's
week you'll be proud to do.
There are important posi-
tions in the WAVES and
SPARS for women with experi-
ence in practically every field of
business and industry. Have
you worked in an office as a
typist, secretary, operator of
business machines, filing clerk
or bookkeeper? You will find
ready use for your skill. Have
you sold merchandise or checked
stock in a store? Do you know
anything about radio, tele-
graphy, photography? Did you
ever work in a library, serve al
an information desk or tele-
phone switchboard, do tailoring
or sewing? have you a me-
chanical "bent"? If so, your
knowledge and experience will
be valuable to the Navy. And it
will help you to rapid promo-
tion and better pay.
On the other hand ,suppose
you have no special skill or ex-
perience. There is a place for
you, too, in the Navy. If you can
meet the physical and educa-
tional requirements, N a v
training will take care of tht
rest, fit you in a few short
months for the post where you
will be of greatest service to
your country and to yourself.
There's a new booklet which
has been prepared titled, "How-
to Serve Your Country in The
WAVES or SPARS outlining
all requirements for enlistment
in these branches of service. A
copy may be obtained at your

"For those who were unem-

"But for those who were al-

Although the total American

A stirring report has ju
reached the World Student Ser-
vice Fund at its office at 8
West 40th Street, N. Y. C, re
ceived in a roundabout way
from its administering commit-
tee in Europe. This report tell
of the exciting events which
took place in southern France
during the early fall of 1942.
immediately after the deporta-
tion orders affecting Jews in
France.
One of the important projects
sponsored by the World Student
Service Fund in Europe was
the Student Home at Cham-
bon, in the Haute Loire. This
home meant a new life to more
than thirty students, some of
whom had been studying in the
six French universities which
were still operating, others of
whom had been released from
the huge refugee camps in
France. All the students at
Chambon were in desperate
need of physical rehabilitation
after months and years of un-
dernourishment. At the Student
Home it was possible to have a
fairly adequate diet, to do
healthful work on a farm, and
to continue studies under a
trained Director. The change in
the appearance and morale of
students after a few months
under this comparativelv norm-
al regime was little short o"
mriaculous.
At the beginning of August
governmental authorities came
to the Director of the Student
Home to take a census of the
young people living there. No
one anticipated that the pur-
pose of the visit was to prepare
the deportation list of Jews.
A few days later the rumors
ig
in the surrounding forests and
farms, only coming back to the
house at certain hours during
the day. By the middle of Au-
gust the situation had become
acute. Three nights in a row the
police raided the house not find-
ing any of those they were seek-
ing but confiscating all their
j goods. The students, in hiding,
ere without food cards or
identification papers. To be
without a food card in France
is quite lite ally to be without
food. It was only due to thi
splendid support of the French
population, both Cathloic and
Protestant, that the Je vish stu-
dents were able to survive.
A few days latei the Director
of the Student Home was!
threatened with arrest far not !
having given the student
the police. At this point
came clear that the only safety
for the students was to try to
flee the country. Thanks to'the
French counterpart of the "un-
derground railway they final-
ly made their way througi
numbles hazards to the Swis 1
border.
One by one the students
straggled into Geneva, asking
for help and protection from
the World Studenl Service
gee camps provided for then
