ters of 1944.
The TECO ECHO was one of ten
newspapers from schools with en-
rollments corresponding in size with
that of ECTC, which were awarded
the All-American honor rating.
A rating of "excellent" was given
�he TECO ECHO on its coverage,
! alance, vitality, originality and
tratment of news. A like rating was
given on the content, organization and
style of the news stories and on the
proofreading.
The judges praised the editorial
page a- "A very fine editorial and
feature page. You can be especially
proud of your editorial column
Weak Points
"Your features are your weakest
point. They are important and de-
serve the careful thought and treat-
ment you give to other types f
stories commented the judges.
A lack of interest-arousing words
in the opening paragraphs of the
stories was also pointed out.

Lt. Fenlv Spear, bomber pilot and former ECTC stu-

attended ECTC during 1940-42, majoring in English and
mathematics. He was the Chi Pi electrician along with
having several acting parts in Chi Pi plays. In the sum-

Lost Colony While at ECTC he got his pilots license un-
der the CPT program here at the college. He later attended
State college. Lt Spear was the son of Mrs. Fenley Spear,
formerly dietician at ECTC.
Lt. (jg) John Boyd Christenbury, former coach and
physical education instructor at East Carolina Teachers
college, was killed in the explosion of two navy ammunition
ships at Port Chicago, California, on July 18, 1944. Chris-

25th. Advance sale of tickets will be-
gin soon.
The Chi Pi plays, who have in the
pat�t given such suspenseful myster-
ies as "Ladies in Retirement' 'and
"The Skull have found in "A Mur-
der Has Been Arranged" one of the
cleveret physochological dramas ever
written for the modern stage.
The play comes from the prolific
pen of Emlyn Williams, author of
such masterpieces as "Night Must
Fall' 'and "The Corn Is Green It
was his first Baaceas. The superbly
drawn characterizations, "nerve ting-
ling" situations and the mood of im-
pending doom made this three-act
presentation a night of chills and en-
tertainment.
The scene of th� drama takes place
on the bare stage of the St. James
theater in London, where recently a
man was murdered in one of the
dressing rooms. A party of people
have been assembled on the dark
stage to celebrate the birthday of
Sir Charles Jasper, who has just in-
herited ten million dollars. Soon
Sir Charles learns that his nephew,
long unheard from, has paid him a
visit. It happens that the nephew,
Maurice Mullins, is the only heir to
the uncle's legacy. From then on
the play gathers momentum, leading
j up a climax in the suspense-packed
' third act, containing one of the most
thrilling ghosts scenes ever written.
It is guaranteed to keep the audience
on edge.
Production plans have begun al-
ready, and try-outs were held last
Wednesday. The mystery-drama
promises some unusual problems for
the players to solve and rare op-
portunities to create a unique and
handsome production.
Mr. Kenneth Christian is directing
the play.

Proud Of Honor Rating-
Have you noticed on this campus the
girl that works in the dining hall? You can
tell her by the exhausted expression upon
her face.
Indeed, she has something to be ex-
hausted about, for meal after meal�clay af-
ter day, she works as hard as she can to
serve the tables assigned to her. It is her re-
sponsibility to bo prompt for these services.
She runs down the aisle with a tray heavy
enough for only a mule to carry. In work-
ing near the back she wonders at what
moment she will be unfortunate enough to
land on anything but her feet. If you don't
1 i lieve it. just take a tray and then try slid-
ing down the aisle. She spends approxi-
mately fotn- hours every day working in the
dining hall while she spends only three
hours on. elass.
It is impossible for her to always be as
cooperative as she has been in the past. Ex-
tra work has boon piled upon her this year
and st; fir she hifs continued to hold this re-
sponsible position. If you could hear her
talk, you might think she is practically run
down, and I don't see why she isn't.
We would like to say "thank you" to the
student body for being so kind and consi-
derate to her. We feel that you have some
idea of her situation. If it were not for your
splendid cooperation, she would have run
do1 n long ago.

Social Workers Are
In (ireat Demand
Morgantown, W. Va.�(ACP)�
"We could have placed five or six
times as many students in public wel-
fare po itions this year as we did
said Dr. E. If. Sunley, Head of the
Department of Social Work, West
Virginia university. He continued by
saying, "Never has there been such
n ai precedented demand for pro-
fessionall) prepared social workers.
Social workers are wanted as staff
meml i rs in medical and psychiatric
lepartments f our Army, Navy, and
civilian hospitals, as child welfare
yorkers in our state departments of
lublic welfare, as interviewers in
United States Employment Service
offices, as counsellors for housing
projects, as children's workers for
juvenile courts, as rehabilitation
workers, by war agencies, etc
Dr. Sunley added, "In recent
months several new areas of social
�.oik have devolped. Some of the
most interesting of these have in-
cluded counseling positions in indus-
try, social case work positions in
labor unions, case work jobs in de-
partment tores, counseling positions
n the Federal agencies and case work
Government - controlled business
would tend to increase friction when
one government attempted to over-
charge another, since there is no in-
ternational power strong enough to
settle such a dispute. Only in a
workable international government
would such a system be advantage-
ous. Since we have no such govern-
ment, he concluded, state-controlled
economy would be likely to increase
the chances for war.

"This is but a beginning, new
agencies and new services in the post-

Virginia, there are many undevolped
fields of social work such as medical
and psychiatric social works in our
mental hospitals and institutions for

The Commerce department was or-
ganized January 1, 1936. Today it
is one of the largest departments in
the college. During 1U36 there were
twenty-five students enrolled in com-
mercial subjects. The present en-
rollment of commerce majors is 253.
Originally the department was lo-
cated in the attic of Austin building
and consisted of two rooms, a long
used for the typing classes and
the small office room under the
aves used for accounting. At that
ime there were only twenty-five
