Students Should Choose
Their Leaders With Care
Soon members of the student body will
march to the polls and usher in office the
major campus leaders for the Coating school
year. In the past there has boon an appar-
ent lack of interest in the student balloting.
Will this bo the story again for the forth-
coming elections?
As members of a democratic student
l,ociy � 0f the students, for the students.
and by the students, you should take seri-
ously tin matter oi' electing those who will
serve you in the new year that lies ahead.
Often criticism of those in office prevails.
Under the surface one can find the cause
� th criticism in tin- election that preceded
the administration of the student in ques-
tion. No election should bo a popularity
contest Ask yourself, "What type of ser-
vice will the person 1 vote for give? Does
In have the qualifications that make him
adept to the duties that he wlil have to
. ssume? Is ho the kind of person who can
shoulder responsibility adequately?" These
and other questions should be kept in mind
at all times in considering the candidates,
Too foten students who do not vote are
the first to howl when a student officer falls
down on the job. If you don't vote, blame
no one but yourself if a certain officer isn't
up to par. It is your election. Those whom
you elect will be expected to fill their po-
sition to meet with your expectations. When
m n is elected by a minority, consider-
ing the entire student body, to represent a
ajority, then it stands to reason that he
: ighl have deficiencies.
Let's turn out to the polls on election
day and roll up the biggest vote for all
the offices in the history of the school. The
few minutes that are required in voting
will not be a sacrifice of your time, but a
contribution to better leadership on the
campus of East Carioina Teachers College.
Decide on the candidate you want to serve
you and vote your convictions.

a duty as well as a privilege that future

knowing and loving games of students that
teachers may find a meeting ground with

When College Women Marry
Because of the numerous Mills girls
who came back from Christmas vacation
either engaged or married, we of the
WEEKLY, a bunch of old maids, view with
bewilderment the galaxy of diamond studdetl
fingers. It's a good thing. Girls should
and will get married. We are proud also
of the high percentage of" alumnae with a
Mrs. degree.
Our only hope for the new brides nd
fiances is that they do not make their mar-
riages an escape into mediocrity. So often
a housewife becomes so embroiled in little
things. Their worlds can become bounded
by four walls. Their conversation can de-
generate to Johnny's ailments, their newest
recipe, an effective diet, or the latest bit of
scandal. It is easy to make tempests in
teapots. It is easy to become narrow minded
by living a quiet lite.
Married life has unbounded opportuni-
ties for the enrichment of one's life. It
should be every girl's ambition to make a
lovely home for her husband" and family.
But beyond that it is her duty to stay alive
to the world as it progresses. Just as when
she is in college, a girl becomes more per-
ceptive, so all through life she should keep
alive her interest in the world in order to
enrich her own life and life of her family.
Furthermore, if it is her goal to make
life truly beautiful for her husband and
ft mily, she must incorporate her love of
beauty, and by this we mean music, art,
a ml literatim into her own life. A woman
las time for the esthetic side of life. While
men must busy themselves with engineer-
ing, science, and medicine, a woman is
excused for her interest in music, art, and
poetry. A true wife can give a lot to her
husband in his leisure time by helping him
understand some of the beauties of life that
he does not have time for in the business
world.

Another on our list of don'ts is the
quite frequent mistake of repeating each
name twice. To say each name once is all
that is necessary.
The most formal introduction you can
make is, "Mrs. Green, may I present Mr.
Black?" On informal occasions the mere
repeating of names ("Mrs. Green, Mr.
Black") is sufficient.
Of course you know that a man is al-
ways presented to a woman. However, if
you find yourself saying the man's name
iirst. you can insert the preposition "to"
before the woman's name. For instance,
you may say. "Mr. Jones, may I introduce
you to MrsSmith?"
If you find yourself at dinner next to
a strange man, by the rules of common
fall of the Axis in Europe but bloodshed and
sorrow will not have been overcome with
that event alone.
On D-Day thousands of Americans
gathered in churches to pray for the pro-
tection and success of our armies. Others
paused at their work in factories, offices,
farms, and homes for moments of silent
prayer. Surely V-Day should pass without
the aid of a bottle and boisterous shouting.
Our celebration ought to be dignified and
purposeful. V-Day should be a day of com-
memoration and of rededication to the re-
maining task before us.

Prepare Now For The Future
"We, the people of the United States
is becoming ever increasingly, "We, the
young people, the students, of the United
States This change is occurring because
of the war and because for the first time
here in history America is beginning to
look upon her youth for aid in this desperate
hour of need. We are, as students, recog-
nized as a valuable part of the American
way of life, we are America's first line of
defense.
Each high school class throughout the
nation will be asked to help the war effort
and workable plans that will not only bring
peace, but will bring security and justice.
It's a hard task that confronts us. It
is one that will be a challenge to our patience
and ingenuity. Wiser men than we have
attempted the same job. but they failed.
We must not fail this time so prepare now
while there is time. Tomorrow will be
too late.

The new schedule provides for a
standard curriculum for all first year
students. The second year curricu-
lum has been divided into two I B
subdivisions, science and engineering,
with an opportunity to begin ele-
mentary subjects of the student's
chosen profession.
The number of undergraduate sub-
jects was reduced from 523 to 412.
This was accomplished by consolida-
tion of subjects of nearly the same
content and purpose, and elimination
of certain options. There was also
a reduction in the variety of sched-
ules offered in the upper years. Un-
der the new plan meteorology is
established as a separate undergrad-
uate course leading to .he degree of
bachelor of science in meteorology.
The four year program in the
humanities and social sciences pro-
vides that in addition to customary
courses in modern languages stu-
dents will take one full course 'i a
non-professional character every
year. The work of the first year
will be devoted to English with em-

In order to find i ut U e musical

a survey was made. Each music

formation thus gathered answered
th� ing questions:
1. Previous training in musk-
high school.
2. Reasons for coming

Future plans in the
mii
answers were varied I 'f
twenty-eight musk majors on
campus, there are five seniors, five
juniors, five sophomores, and thir-
teen freshmen. Only fifteen of the
majors had any musk in the ele-
mentary grade- and. of these fif-
teen, only six had music in every
grade. Six students had no music
at all in high school, and neither
did these six students) have music
in the grades. Twenty-three of the
twenty-eight majors had only glee
club in high school. These figures
indicate a great need for more mu-
sic in the schools of North Carolina.
Too little stress is laid on music and
too little attention paid to those stu-
denst who plan to pursue music in
colleges and universities.
A disconcerting fact is that one�
only one�music major said her pur-
pose for coming to East Carolina
Teachers College vas. "To finish in
puhlic school music in order to teach

ferred taking private lessons in
voice, piano, or some instrument to
taking the general music courses.
