Legation
Plans foi a masquerade dance to be
. n in Wright auditorium after the
ristmas holidays were made at the
year's thrid meeting of the Commerce
. . Tuesday, November 16.
Nell Whitehurst was elected chair-
of the entertainment committee.
The program consisted of two
vocal numbers by Mary Alice Charl-
ton, accompanied by Nell Whitehurst,
and two piano selections by Nell.
Beginning his lecture by talking on
national and international affairs,
Charles Collingwood. noted CBS cor
respondent. made the observation
that people here don't quite realize
what war is and that many corre-
spondents who have been to the front
are critical of the lavish ways in
which Americans are living. Colling-
wood lectured at the Wright building
last Friday night.
The point of view of people here
was compared with looking through
field glasses out of locus, and not ob-
taining the correct vision. Among the
armed forces abroad there is much
bitterness because of the coal strikes
and in many ways John L. Lewis is
as unpopular as Hitler.
In listing characteristics of modern
warfare, Mr. Collingwood pointed oul
that this is a war of machines, that
casualties are not as heavy as in the,
last war because this is such a com
plicated war, and that the number of
people actually at the front is very
small. Commanding officers are fight-
ing the war and basing their strategy
on saving as many lives as possible;
that is, efforts are made not to sacri-
fice lives in vain. Perhaps the most
horrible characteristic of this war, to

years because of the uncertainty cast
upon the date by presidential pro-

Students in Doubt
There was a considerable amount of
speculation among the students as to
whether the holidays would be grant-
ed this year. Rumors said that the
holidays had again been dropped by
a government request. It was with
a sigh of relief that most students
neard Registrar Howard J. McGinnis'a
announcement that the holidays would
run as scheduled in the college cata-
log.
All colleges of this section were
asked by the Southern Passenger
association of the railroads in co-
operation with the government to
close for the Christmas holidays not
later than December 15. But at a
meeting of the directors of instruc-
; tion of East Carolina it was decided
I that the college calendar should re-
'� main as it is with the Christmas holi-
! days begnning December 17 because
"Not many of our students use rail-
roads; most of them go home in their
parents' cars with a few using
busses according to Doctor McGin-
nis.
The Present Set-Up
As the ECTC calendar is now set-
up the Christmas holidays will begin
December 1 and the winter quarter
will be begun January 4. In order to
make the college year include at least
34 weeks, minimum required by the
North Carolina College conference,
there will be no spring holidays.

Emma L. Hooper, chairman of the
Red Cross committee at East Carolina
Teachers college. The banner night
was October 18 with 65 workers roll-
ing 3,000 bandages.
But since the first week of work,
there has been a noticeable drop in
the number rolled, Miss Hooper
points out.
Beginning this year, a new system
was installed, in which 12 girls from
each dormitory roll bandages three

made each week states Miss Hooper.
To date 259 students and teachers
have given at least one hour to the

The committee is made up of four
students and five faculty members.
Student members are Doris Brock,

by Robert Martin
Upon continually hearing for two years night each week.
numerous loud-voiced complaints as to
present rules and regulations imposed upon
the fair sex and fully aware of the dire con-
sequences which might be awaiting him, the
writer ventures forth with this attempted
consolation treatise on the subject.
Lack in he days when men were men
and women were glad of it, an East Carolina
student's day started with a rising bell prac-
tically in the middle of the night�6:30 a.m.
During the day one could go shopping only
on Monday mornings and afternoons and
Friday afternoons. Special permission from
the dean had to be obtained before one could
nter the questionable door of a restaurant.
To keep the "wrong" sights from the
innocent eyes of the sweet little things, only
one show was allowed a week; and this had
to be approved by somebody. When they
were shopping, attending movies or calling.
In adgear had to accompany students. (But
there was no rule concerning wearing curl-
ers to breakfast.)
Students were allowed to freely stroll
off to church or theatre with a male, provid-
ing there were two girls in the groups.
(!ould that be defense on two fronts? No day
students were allowed in the dormitories
without special permission from dormitory
matrons�possibly to avoid a "foreign" in-
fluence.
Rules concerning dates, not that such a
topic could possibly interest anyone, were
very liberal. Name of student, name and ad-
dress of the "catch" for a prospective Sun-
day date had to be filed not later than 1:45
p.m. Saturday. (Pity the week-end marines
of the present at a time like that.) Fresh-
men were generously allotted two dates a
month, sophomores one night a week and
juniors and seniors three dates during one
week-end, once each term, besides the one
Such consistent dating
must have been terribly monotonous. Stu-
dents were forbidden to sit in parked cars
on campus and street. (This rule has been
superseeded by gasoline rationing.)
Dates could be filed at any time until
the capacity of the palor was reached. Short
conversations on the street with men were
allowed, but extended talking and walking
with the "horrid" creatures was taboo.
Those walking could not converse with people
in parked cars. Sitting on entrance gates
or neighboring curbings, even if tired, was
absolutely forbidden.
After a busy day study hour was from
7:30 p.m. to 10:25 p.Vn. Students had to be
in dormitories at 10 o'clock, and quiet pre-
vailed in dormitories from 7:30 p.m. until
6:30 a.m. Can quiet prevail in a building
with 200 wide-awake females?
Further consolation to the dissatisfied
souls on the campus� there follows some
1943 rules in certain other colleges. One
coed college allows male students to date
only on Saturday night; and when a couple
is seen walking together during the week, an
explanation to the powers that be is required.
They wrant to know "what is happening here
in the middle of the week?" At this same
school girls are required to wear hose all the
time�and with the hose situation as it is!
Another coed college requires boys and
girls to literally keep their distance�six
inches is the limit. One victim was inform-
ed by a stately and dignified "referee
"Young man, you're too close
A former East Carolina student who is
attending another college in the state was
campused two weeks recently for not wear-
ing a hat down town. For snickering wrhen
sentenced she was given three extra days.
Cheer up, girls�it could be worse!
Well, boys, here's another issue with
news about your buddys and what they are
doing all over the world. The first on our
lisl ia Lt. David Breece who is remembered
on the campus, other than by his friendly
personality and good dancing, by his out-
standing work in the Chi Pi players. Since
1 aving ECTC "Dave" has taken on the role
sli htly resememg the wandering minstrel.
For several months lie has been stationed at
an air base somewhere overseas. He recent-
ly completed the "Big 50" and soon will be
heading for home�to finish his honeymoon.
In tin1 army air force a man is given three
choices after finishing fifty missions over
enemy territory. He can change to another
type of plane, he can request duty as a
ground officer, or he can go home. "Dave"
married a Raleigh girl July 3. 1942. and left
for overseas duty September 6, Now that
his fifty missions' are completed and his
choice is made, he'll be coming back to North
Carolina to his bride and we hope he w ill find
time to visit his alma mater.
News of another former Chi Pi member
has come to us. Fenly Spear, who was mas-
ter electrician for all productions for two
years, recently wrote Miss Maria Graham
of some of his doings since entering the air
corps November 23. 1942. He continued his
schooling at North Carolina State college af-
ter joining until he was called in January
1943. From Raleigh he went to Miami
Beach for basic training. Next he went to
a small school known as Union university at
Jackson, Tenn. There he took two and a
half months training in math and physics
and did some flying. While there he decided
he wanted to be a navigator. On May 15 he
left for San Antonio for classification. Af-
ter eleven weeks he received the much-de-
sired classification, navigator. Following
classification Fenley spent nine weeks at
Ellington Field, Houston, in pre-flight train-
ing. "At Ellington the sky began to brighten.
We were given excellent food, and the work
became much more interesting writes Fen-
ley. Next stop was Hando, Texas, for ad-
vanced navigation . training Recently he
made his first flight in an AT-7 an says,
'ii was certainly fine to be over the clouds'
again Fenly will graduate about the first
of February. "My greatest ambition just
now is to be able to stick it out until then
and get those wings and bars. Then, per-
haps I'll get my first leave Here's hoping
he does finish all right, and we would like
to see you back at ECTC, too, Fenley.
Edward Bright is at the Nasville classi-
fication center hoping to be classified for
flight training. He wrote to the staff a
couple of weeks ago that he had just begun
the tests which he must go through for sev-
eral days before being classified. His wait-
ing is probably over now and he either is or
isn't a future pilot. Here's hoping he made
it all right. According to Edward, Bob
Young is in the same squadron he is "It's a
small world isn't it?" said Edward That

Meet Miss Petty Officer with a Yeoman's Rating
The Navy blue uniform of the
WAVES is now a familiar sight
in communities throughout the
country. Typical of these trained
WAVES is the Yeoman pictured
above, who is now at work in the
Navy Department in Washington,
D. C.
From the insignia on the sleeve
of her blouse you know she pos-
sesses a Yeoman rating (the
crossed quills indicate this) and is
a Petty Officer third class (indi-
cated by the single chevron). The
single anchor on her collar is evi-
dence that she is a member of the
WAVES.
Insignia not only identifies but
demonstrates the variety and real
importance of work being per-
formed by WAVES in terms of
vital war serv' :e. It also signifies
a real Navy job and doesn't diffe-
rent'ate bct'vesn a man's or wo-
man's service in the Navy.
As the WAVES increase in
number at Navy bases throughout
the country, they will release
thousands of Navy men for com-
bat duty by filling such jobs as
Radioman, Aviation Machinist's
Mate. Parachute Rigger, Aero-
grapher's Mate, Storekeeper, etc.
For complete information on
the?e Navy jobs, go to the near-
est Recruiting Station or Office of
Naval Officer Procurement

ASSEMBLY

in the senate and house, respective
The ECTC bill provoked much dis-
cussion in both houses. The question
as to why a post-war commission
should function at present was
brought up and it was pointed out
that as the bill proposed a commis-
sion on post-war planning that it
should be started now to function af-
ter the war. According to the bill the
commission is to study present con-
ditions in the secondary schools, as a
guide for post-war planning, report-
ing their findings and recommenda-
tons annually to the State Board of
Education and State legislature.
In analyzing the eviL of present
secondary education, the bill proposed
the need of more vocational training,
better methods of teaching, more and
better teachers and along with this a
raise in teachers' salaries, and store
emphasis on the fundamentals of
English, mathematics and science.

the thirty-four weeks explains Doc-
tor McGinnis. He points out that
some colleges are meeting the prob-
lem of having spring holidays by
closing the fall quarter in November
t.nd having the first two weeks of the
winter quarter in November and De-
cember.
For a Better Calendar
The problem of holidays was dis-

the directors of instruction and ac-

Mr. Collingwood, is the fact that in
battle areas there is a continual ten-
sion strain or sense of death always
around one. Particularly is this so be-
cause of hidden mines. Every step
one takes may be the last one. In
captured towns there is always fear
of hidden ��booby" traps.
An encouraging fact learned in the
North Africa campaign, according to
Collingwood, is that one quality of
German s-oldiers is, that when they
I now they cannot win they quit with-
out fighting. Thus 2-13,000 prisioners,
composed two-thirds of Germans, with
full equipment and in high spirits,
were raptured.
Turning from the military to the
political. Collingwood touched upon
the Moscow conference. He pointed
out that since the German defeat at
Stalingrad, and in North Africa,
German generals have realized that
the possibility of winning the war by
purely military means is gone. Then
I they began a campaign, which is still
going on, to help win the war by
political means which included split-
ling of the Allies. Rumors about
Russians making separate peace then
ran wild and were widely believed, he
declared. But these and other rumors
have been disproven and squelched by
the Moscow conference.
Mr. Collingwood pointed out that
the Allies lost much prestige and sup-
port among the democratic natives of
North Africa and Italy by support-
ing the totalitarian pawns, Admiral
Darlan and King Victor Emmanuel.
"These problems urged Mr. Colling-
wood, "are problems of peace and
they must be solved correctly
