records of their own rorrectly

the plans. The custom of honoring
the day dropped out until 1940.
One of the biggest celebrations in
the history of the school was on
Founder's Day when the dedication
of the Classroom Building was com-
bined with Homecoming. Governor
Clyde R. Hoey and Supt. Erwin
made the addresses.
There was an imposing academie
procession in which a number of
state officials and other honor guests
joined the board of trustees, faculty,
staff, alumni, and students marched.
The Wright auditorium was filled to
overflowing. The orchestra and glee
club furnished the music. A number
of guests were at the luncheon, the
basketball game and a dance, spon-
sored by the Alumni association, in
the evening.
The college opened on October 5,
1909, another important date in the
history of the school, which in the
early years, was observed especially
and sometimes called Founders Day.
This, however, was too soon after
the opening of school for an elabor-
ate celberation and it was difficult to
get many alumni back for homecom-
ing. So it was usually marked only
by special assembly exercises. For
a number of years some date during
the Fall was set aside for Homecom-
ing Day for the alumni.
For the duration the celebration of
all these special days has been

To help develop students in the
principles and practices of democratic
organization and self control, said
Dl McGinnis, the president and
faculty approved a student govern-
ment association and delegated to it
certain responsibilities relating to
Student behavior, discipline. and
social activities. Advisers are pro-
vided from the faculty whose special

st,on work in harmony with the

The library is primarily for study
and research, although students use
it for other purpose. It should be a
place that stimulates you to do your
best and it can he made so, if those
who use it will observe simple rules
of conduct and show a little consi-
deration for other students.
There are rules of good etiquette
for use of the library as well as for
other things. Students are asked to
be as quiet as possible in the library,
and I might add, when coming in the
library you would think sometimes
that some people have never seen a
revolving door, judging from the
noise they make when coming in.
It is" only polite that you await
your turn at the desk and avoid ail
conversation if possible. Do not
force the girls who. are working to
have to tell you to be quiet, and above
all, don't try to tell them how the
library should be run. It is quite evi-
dent that the average student doesn't
know any too much about using it.
Much less running it.
When you make a five on a book,
pay it with good spirits, and let it
be a lesson to you. For goodness
sakes, don't blame the library girls
or the library for your own careless-
ness in failing to return a book on
(time. For example, a girl failed to
due. As usual, she tried to convince
us that she had returned them, but
our records proved that she was mis-
representing the fact to say the
least. Because she neither paid for
the hooks nor turned them in, she
was not permitted to check out any
more books from the library. She
caused several unpleasant scenes, and
at the end of the quarter, she re-
turned the books, but she left school
without paying any fine, and to this
day she owes our library over $22.00.
Our library and our school aren't
proud of students like that one.

It must be apparent, said the
speaker, that no fornvl action of the

supersede an action by the college
administration, and that the officers

Profanity abounded, as did the
suggestive remarks or jokes, but
from the vigorous response, both in
applause and laughter, it was ap-
parently enjoyed by the capacity
audience.
The only representation of local
talent was one of the timid canines
which frequent our campus. His per-
formance was exceptionally praise-
worthy, despite a slight case of
stage-fright.
If you want tone popu.ar ��� re,mlarly constituted of
library girls, don't wait until 9:29 c,l of �
to bring a half dozen books to be
renewed. You don't realize the
trouble a little thing like that can
be, for it usually means someone
will have to work over-time, to file
the cards, and our time, like yours,
is very valuable.
When you get ready to leave the
library, clean up your mess on the
table, if you happen to be one of
those persons who can't refrain from
tearing paper in tiny bits; push up
your chair and leave quietly.
The library is for student use and

John B. Christenbury Memorial
Trophy
A faculty committee was appointed
by Dr. McGinnis to make plans for a
memorial to John B. Christenbury,
who lost his life in the Port Chicago
disaster in July, 1944, while on active
duty in the Navy. Coach Christen-
bury had been given a leave of ab-
sence from the college for the dura-
tion. The committee discussed sever-
al possibilities and finally agreed
unanimously on the following:
A cup, to be known as the John B.
Christenbury Memorial Trophy, is to
be awarded annually to a young man
student of East Carolina Teachers
College who is a member of an
athletic team during his senior year,
and who is selected by a faculty com-
mittee on the basis of scholarship,
character, and service to the college.
The trophy will probably be kept at
the college and have the winner's
name engraved on it each year.
This particular memorial was sug-
gested for a number of reasons�it
gives the friends and associates of
Lt. Christenbury a chance to take
part in its establishment, and, espec-
ially, it recognises some of the fine
things for which he stood in his work
with the young men of the college.

revenge on the Pirate cagers, defeat-

the Jamesville gym February 23.
Here the Pirates had handed the
Jamesville quintet a 48-39 defeat,
but the tables were reversed m
Jamesville.
Halftime score was 37-26 in James-
ville's favor. It seemed that at one
time the Pirates were going to over-
take the All-Stars. At 4 minutes
left to play in the ball game the
Pirates were within 5 points of
Jamesville, but came out ten points
behind at the final whistle with the
final score being 69-59. Bob Lee

Other State Departments of Edu-
cation are also devising systems of 1
evaluation and many colleges plan j
to give degree credits for the
courses taken by soldiers in Army
schools.
The officers and enlistde men at
the AAF Redistribution Station here
are those who have reported for new
assignments after completing over-
seas tours of duty. "Twenty per
cent of the 'returnees' initiate steps
for returning to school while they
are here Lt. Pollen said.
"In some cases they are men "who
entered the Army without complet-
ing their high school or college edu-
cations. And they had no intention
of going back to their books until
they saw the effectiveness of spe-
cialized training in the prosecution
of the war.
"This drove home the realization
that the more education they have,
the greater their earning power will
be as civilians In other instances,
the education officer pointed out,
men have gone up through the ranks
to become officers. They want to
establish themselves in a higher so-
cial and economic place in civilian
society than they came from � and
they feel they can do that through
additional education.

Well, the Pirates wound up a suc-
cessful cage season in Smithfield at
the Eastern Carolina basketball
tournament, even though they lost
out in the finals to the Smithfield
Blue Streaks. The Pirates have a
jwon and lost record that speaks for
them saying, "What's the matter
with the Pirates. They're all right.
Who said so Ten wins
against four defeats is good going.
The MAA deserves all the credit
for there even being a basketball
team to take up the fight in college
sportsland for ECTC. They organ-
iz 1 themselves at the first of the
winter quarter and had a successful
ball team on the college hard court
within a few week- after the quarter
started�fast work. . However, the
MAA wishes me to thank those stu-
dents and faculty who saw fit to help
support the Pirates this season. It
goes without saying that the Pirates
exit only because of those students
and faculty who gave their support.

She said love is a royal law because
the king of love is God; it is above

This royal law of love never har-

schools can do much to develop habits
of discriminating between news and

the processes by which public opinon

against the tricks of demagogues and
efforts to persuade on less than full

As a means of waging peace as ef-
fectively as we have waged war, the
committee makes 15 specific recom-
mendations for methods of procedure,
ranging from study of the political
institutions of democracy on all grade
levels, to practing democracy in the
schools � accompanied by explicit ,
analysis of the procedures and
values involved.
In addition to "attractively pre-
senting the strength and value of
democracy" schools should also an-
alyze the dangers of dictatorship and
totalitarianism and include a study of
conditions that have given rise to
such movements, the study em-
