of initiation we're individual,

Beginning Wednesday morn-
ing at 6:30 all the new girls met
in their respective places for
instructions as to their conduct
and what they were to wear for
the next few days. Caps made
of felt of the society colors were
worn by all the new girls. No
make up, black gym hose, print
dresses, much jewelry, and low
heel shoes were very prevalent
on the campus. All upperclass-
men were entitled to certain
rights and they saw that those
rights were fully abided by, for
Freshmen were made to sweep
floors, make beds, and empty
waste paper baskets, and obey

rigid than those of the preceding
days. At 3:30 in the afternoon,
all the new girls were assembled
for the climax of initiation week.
Each society followed a dif-
ferent program in the method
of taking the new girls into the
organization. Part of them
were blindfolded over the cam-
pus, while others were made to
walk ceiling rafts, and still oth-
ers used other methods. Each
of the societies had a paddle line.

close with the formal statement

ANNUAL PARADE
The Poe Society staged a par-
ade last week in honor of th.e
new girls. This is the second
year that a parade has been held.
With Annabel Parker at the
piano and Marjorie Fodrie lead-
ing the singing, the old Poes
marched down back campus
down Fifth street and front
campus. The Poes were dressed
in red and white and wore the
Poe caps. On the float, which
was decorated in the Poe colors,
red and white, were the offi-
cers of the Society. These are:
Melba O'brien. President; Mil-

Change Of Society Letter
Considered by Committee
At a meeting of the Inter-So-
ciety last week, a plan was dis-
cussed for substituting Greek
letters on the pins in place of
the former initials. This will
not mean that the name Poe.
Emerson or Lanier will be dis-
carded. On the contrary, it will
mean that there will be two
sets of names. Another plan
was discussed for discarding the
debates which are held each
year, and substituting one-act
plays for them. Both of the
ideas will be presented to the
societies at their first meeting.
Janie Hester, of the Poe So-
ciety, was elected Secretary of
the Committee. Moena Horton,
Emerson Society, is Chairman of
the Inter-Society Committee.

Wednesday, Not?. 1. 1933.
This year our front campus has had
more paper and trash thrown on it than us-
ual.
Although the students are to blame for
some of it. they would, no doubt, keep it in
a better condition if there were more trash
cans than we have now. At either end of
Austin Building are containers, but there
are no places around on the campus where
the students need them most.
Greater University of North Carolina said
that his opposition to liquor traffic was be-
cause of the menace to society. He said
that he was opposed to liquor for the same
fundamental reason that he was in favor of
a law for the abolition of child labor, night
work for women, low wages, the long
work week, and many other forms of hu-
man exploration that tear down and des-
troy the bodies and personalities of human
beings.
It has been claimed by ardent advocates
of repeal that our prohibition laws have
been broken and torn down. In his speech
in Raleigh last week Clyde Hoey, promi-
nent North Carolina Attorney, said "Prohi-
bition has been a failure, in a measure, but
it has not been the failure that barrooms
have been. It is a failure as other prohibi-
tory measures are failures. They don't
prohibit entirely. And in that sense our
laws against murder and burglary and ar-
son are failures
There can be no certainty as to the
outcome of the question in North Carolina.
In the Literary Digest Poll, North Carolina
and Kansas were the only states to vote
dry. If North Carolina votes dry at the
election, it will be well and good.
No matter what the outcome is, as pros-
pective teachers we will have the education
of the future citizens of the state in our
hands. If the Amendment is repealed and
there seems to be no doubt but that it will;
it will be our duty to educate the children
for a temperance era.
In order to understand fully our work
In future years, we should become familiar
with the work now. Read the paper, maga-
zines, hear speeches and do not make up
your mind about such a serious question
until you have become fully acquainted
with the facts.
Dear Editor:
Any enthusiastic football fan
knows that a lot depends on the
support of the side lines, and if
we expect touchdowns we've
got to let the team know we're
behind them, win or lose. Un-
less we are willing to yell and
fight hard for our eleven, then
we need not expect brilliant re-
sults. As a student body lets go
to the games and show the boys
that we're behind them, what-
ever the results may be. It
takes a good coach, and a good
team to play winning games,
but it also takes the support of
the fans along the side-lines to
win contests. Are we willing
to go to the games and fight for
the boys, or are we content to
let them play and never feel
that they've had any support?
A lot depends on the boosters
�let's support our team.
Dear Editor:
Why can't we play bridge
when we have a date in the
parlor? There isn't anything to
do in the parlor when you have
a date except talk. Talking is
all right but it would make it
seem more homelike if you
could play bridge in there.
Sometimes when you see a
boy you have never met before,
it would help a great deal if
you would be allowed to play
bridge.
I realize that we cannot be as
free as we would be in our own
WHAT SHALL I JOIN
In this issue of the paper, the plans for
the second County Rally Day are printed. In
order to avoid confusion on the day the ral-
ly is held, read the directions closely and
follow them with accuracy.
County Rally Day is being held in or-
der to let the students know who is from
their county and the number from their
county.
Either the student body is not interest-
ed in the question of repeal, or they are too
busy to clip the ballot that was printed in
the Teco Echo�or did they read the paper?
The straw vote on the 18th Amendment
was so slight that no accurate decision as
to whether the school was wet or dry could
he rendered. The majority of the votes
cast, however, were against the repeal of
the Amendment.
Dear Editor:
To see advancement in athle-
tic training on our campus is
truly one of my highest desires.
I've tried to the best of my
ability for the past three years
to cooperate with the boys and
girls in aiding them to reach
this goal. Both have made slow
but sure advancement, the girls
because of a handicap in oppor-
tunity, the boys because of a
number of reasons. The first
year athletics were introduced
on this campus there was but
little material to select from. A
large part of the student body
which was composed of girls
were strongly against tinning
over an appropriation for the
start in the Athletic field. The
appropriation (if I remember the
figures correctly) was $500. That
year basket ball and base ball
were started and because of lack
of material a very little showing
was expected from the student
body but I gave them credit for
doing themselves justice and the
year was ended very favorably.
Last year $500 more was ap-
propriated for a start in foot-
ball. Again because of light
material, and superior oppon-
ents, the season was closed with-
out scoring. This was under-
stood though by a large major-
ity of the student body that was
very delighted to return this
season and find the supposedly
good material on the campus.
The student body again appro-
priated a $1,000 to the worthy
cause and what do you get in
return? Three games have been
played and E. C. T. C. has yet
to score its first point. Why did
any of you guys ever hear the
word "training well, if you

THEY ARE ALL RIGHT
There has been much criticism among
some of the students because our football
team has not piled up a score against their
opponents.
These students have not evidently com-
pared and contrasted the teams and the
schools that we have to play. If you do
think it over, the students will realize that
our team has been playing against heavy
odds, and the showing they have been is a
credit to the school.
We have only 94 boys to pick a team
from in contrast to the several hundred
boys our opponents have had to get a squad
from. They have had football at other
schools for many years; this is only our
second season. A good football machine
cannot be built in two years. It will take
time and patience. They have advanced
much in the last year, and with the help
and cooperation of the Student Body will do
more as time goes by.
We are not making excuses for the
team, neither are we handing them bou-
quets; but let's do our part and they will
do theirs.
TO BE OR NOT TO BE WET
Whether North Carolina is to be wet or
is not to be wet, will be determined in the
next week. November 7th, is the day that
is set for voting on the repeal question.

To the ambitious student who wishes to
make many acquaintances and be in the thick
of College affairs many campus organiza-
tions extend eager invitations. Freshmen,
as well as upper classmen are confronted
with the problem "Shall I join the organiza-
tion?"
Many students in former years have be-
come affiliated with the numerous organi-
zations�choosing them promiscuously. As
a result they were of little value to any and
a vital necessity to none. Morever these
figureheads are quite often a drawback to
the intergral parts of the organizations. With
a large membership goes smaller dues, but
the "Join-Alls" take no part in the activi-
ties and consequently leave a deficit in the
treasury because of unpaid dues.
Coming as a handicap to the more earn-
est student belonging to numerous associa-
tions is the inability to attend all meetings
because of conflicts caused by two or three
meeting at the same time. To the more
zealous member the great drawback lies in
expending too much effort and zeal on ex-
tra-curriculum activities and having but a
minimum for real college work.
Thus the problem arises�with what
organization shall I affiliate myself? To
the Science Major the Science Club offers
an opportunity for self-expression, scientific
interpretation and for hearing leaders in the
field talk; to any student interested in jour-
nalism, in free expression of thought, the
Scribblers Club offers a chance to study
rudiments of journalism and encourages
constributions to this publication; to the
English student, the French, the Mathema-
tics, Home Economics, or Geography Majors,
departmental clubs have been organized
and are of value to those who put most into
them.
When you entered school this fall, you
automatically became a member of the Stu-
dent Government Association, and to it you
owe your first allegiance. On your honor, it
is the vital organization but its standards can
be only as high as you make them. Hand-in-
hand with the S. G. A. goes the Y. W. C. A
whose successful continuance is dependent
on the attitude of the student body. Just as
S. G. A. tends to develop a mental state of
good citizenship, and the Y. W. C. A a moral
state of Christ-like activity, even so the two
Athletic Associations tend to develop a phy-
sical state of perfection. In order to be well-
rounded scholar everyone of you should
have time and a desire for membership in
these three organizations and then for the
others.

I believe that it would elimi-

Dear Editor:
We can never get any water
to drink over at the campus
building. This was the case all
of last year, and it seems
that it will be the case
this year. Why can't something
be done about it? Are we going
to have to walk down to Flem-
ing if we want water while we
are in the Campus building? It
seems to be the case of "Water,
water, everywhere, and not a
drop to drink
Please, let us have water at
the Campus building.
Dear Editor:
I know that the expression
"Quit Cutting Campus" has be-
come very trite. We've heard it
from the time we entered school
here until the present day. I,
however, am a firm believer in
the fact that patience and per-
severence conquer all things, so
if we are kept reminded of this
maybe we will learn to keep off

son to Fifth Street is becoming

pus with a cigarette in your

drinking everything you like.
The girls are trying to back
and support you, but being a
girl and living in the dormitory,
I hear a lot of things that you
don't and if you want athletics
and the support of this student
body for another year, you had
better do something and do it
quick! You can't expect these
girls to give you their best sup-
port when you do not give yours
in return! Now you can take
this or leave it, but a hint to the
wise should be sufficient!

Says That Sports Now Have
A Definite Place In The
Program Of Education.
(Wallace Wade. Director of Ath-
letics, Duke University)
Sports have come to occupy a
definite place m the program of
education. For a long while,
participation m sports was look-
ed upon as a recreation or as an
activity for developing one's
physical body. Both of these
are most worth, while purpose
and it is undoubtedly true that
while participating in athletics,
one is not only developing a
strong body but is also spend-
ing his spare time in a whole-
some occupation.
However, even greater bene-
fits than these can be derived
by those who engage seriously
m athletic: participation, and the
recognition of these benefits
has given athletics its place in
the educational program. It is
a fact that certain lessons of
life can be learned more effec-
tively through athletic activity
than in an yolher student, exer-
cise. Athletic activity or parti-
cipation in college sports teaches
a boy to be loyal, to preserve,
own interests for those of his
organization, to respect auth-
ority, and to value physical con-
dition and proper preparation.
But, most worth while of all, it
teaches a boy .that he can only
acquire success through hard
honest effort. Moreover, parti-
cipation in ports teaches linn to
respect an opponent who lias
earned success, and to value pro-
perly his own efforts toward
the achievement of his goal.
Boys soon learn that they can
become outstanding athletics
only by applying themselves
very seriously and earnestly to
tlie task of becoming skilful m
whatever form of athletics they
engage. They realize that cer-
tain men are good athletics, not
SO much because they have been
favored with unusual natural
ability, but as the result of their
long earnest hours of application
and practice. Young men see
from this that good results in
any endeavor come to those who
pay for them with honest ef-
fort, and they respect a success-
ful man who is reaping the
benefits of his work.
Makes Better Citizen
Through athletic activity a
person can be taught to be a
better citizen. He should learn
the importance of playing his
own part in a movement and
avoiding interference with the
duties or privileges of others. A
player should be taught to ac-
cept a decision that is given by
an official not because he may
be in a position to see that it
was correct, but because the de-
cision was made by the official
who is the constituted authority
to make such a ruling. He
learns that it is his duty to play
and someone else's duty to offi-
ciate, just as the students who
are spectators should learn that
.it is their duty to support and
encourage their team
Girl Athletes
Are Urged To
Keep Training
Training Rules For Players
Are Given.
With event of the first practice
for basketball for the girls' team
the candidates will be expected
to keep training. And keeping
training means keeping it from
the beginning of the season un-
til the last game is over.
A girl cannot expect to play
basketball and give her best to
her team if she is unfit physi-
cally. So much of the success
of basketball depends on the
mental alertness of the players
and regular training does much
to improve sureness of mind.
Every play must be planned,
every pass completed, and every
movement must be timed in or-
der to reach the right place at
the right minute. A game calls
for much physical and mental
ability and ingenuity, so keep
training and give your best to
your game.
The following are a list of
rules that candidates will be ex-
pected to follow:
(1) No sweets between meals.
(2) No coca colas.
(?) No coffee or tea.
(4) Eight hours of sleep with
the proper ventilation.
(5) Three meals a day.
(fi) Drink plenty of water.
(7)Hot and cold showers af-
ter practices.
(8) Meet practice regularly.

ALUMNAE NEWS
On October 13, the Greenville
chapter of the Alumnae Asso-
ciation met with Misses Arley
V. Moore and Elizabeth Smith at
the "Y" Hut.
Misses Mary Belle Wilson,
Edith Marslender. and Nona
Walters, and Mr. Jack Humph-
rey rendered a most enjoyable
musical program.
Following the .program, there
was a business session at which
time the following questions
were discussed�dues for the
year: change in hour of meet-
ing; change meetings to alter-
nate from business to social,
and plans for Me work of the
year.
Delicious refreshments were
served.
When the Teachers tackle
Presbyterian Junior College here
Saturday, they will be in much
better shape to pile up a score
than in the former games. They
have been practicing with a de-
termination that will offset any
dope as to the outcome of the
game. Coaches Beatty and
Sheckles have been putting the
team through their paces this
week in a thorough way.
John Kapelec who hails from
Pittsburgh, Pa will be out for
the rest of the season, because
of a dislocated shoulder. He was
hurt in the Wake Forest Game.
The loss of Kapelec at his regu-
lar job of right end, has been
keenly felt. He will be able to
play basketball by the time that
season starts.
WARREN SCOVILLE TALKS
TO SUNDAY SCHOOL GROUP
N. C. C.
P. A. HOLDS
MEETING
HERE
Last Sunday morning at the
0:45 worship program of the
Methodist Sunday School, which
is composed of college students,
Mr. Warren Scoville of Green-
ville, who is a student of the
ministry at Duke University,
discussed and outlined the con-
ference and the resolutions
adopted by the conference of the
Methodist Students of North
Carolina colleges at the Greens-
boro College in Greensboro, N.
C. Mr. Scoville first told of the
general nature of the conference
and then gave the resolutions in
order as they were taken up at
the conference in Greensboro.
Mr. Scoville opened his talk
for discussion and asked that
the Sunday School group pass
their opinion on the adoptions
by voting. These resolutions
had already been brought be-
fore the students and discussed
among themselves and upon
voting they gave nearly a 100
per cent support to the confer-
ence.
E. C. T. C. Methodist students
did not send a delegation be-
cause of unavoidable difficulties
that arose at the last minute.
Basket Ball practice for the
girls started Tuesday afternoon.
This is the first year that the
college has had intercollegate
basketball for girls, and a sys-
tem for picking the team had to
be decided upon.
At a meeting of the advisory
board, it was decided to first
have class teams as in the part
and then pick a varsity team
from the members of the class
teams. Twelve girls make up
the squad.
To be eligible for the class
team and consequently the var-
sity the girl must have joined
the Woman's Athletic Associa-
tion and have paid her dues. Af-
ter joining, she must attend
practice daily and keep training
well.
Several days ago Mr. Deal
called a meeting of the officers
and several members of the W.
A. A. to discuss the kinds of
suits to buy for the team.
Twelve complete outfits, con-
sisting of shorts, jerseys, tennis
shoes, socks and practice suits
are to be ordered. The college
colors of purple and gold are
to be the colors used.
Many girls are expected to go
out for basket ball and the pick-
ers of the team are expected to
have a quantity of excellent ma-
terial to select from.

The N. C. C. P. A. last met
at E. C. T. C, October 30, Nov-
ember 1, 1930. There were ap-
proximately one hundred dele-
gates from the leading colleges
and universities in the state.
On Thursday afternoon the Y.

the Y hut. At eight o'clock the
Benson Printing Company was
host at an elaborate dinner at
the Woman's club. Everett

sions another dinner and dance
was held on Friday night at the
Woman's Club.
The final session was held on
Friday at the Parish House.

British labor leader.
On M ndaj night, I h tober 30,
from 7:30 until 9:00 the co-eds
and men of the faculty were en-
tertained at a Stag party. The
party was given by the combin-
ed efforts of the two groups.
This party was the first of its
kind held in the history of the
school and although it was the
first it proved to be a great
success.
The parts- was started by fif-
teen rousing cheers for the col-
lege after which the group sang
a number of well-known songs.
Then in order to stir up a little
competition between the two
groups, two teams of volley-ball
were chosen. The faculty team
was captained by Mr. Pickle-
seimer and the student's team
by Andy Noe. After a fast 12
minutes of play, the score was
at a 17-17 deadlock, so an extra
period of two minutes was play-
ed. The students managed to
pile up a 23-20 victory.
The whole group was then
divided into four smaller groups
and given ten minutes to think
up a stunt. The first stunt was
a human pyramid, the second
illustrated the hardships of a
man trying to start a model T
Ford. The third stunt was a hog
calling. When the calling start-
ed, the human hogs waddled out,
while June Rose sang "They're
Headed For the Last Round-Up
Last, but not least, was a stunt
showing the tactics of a typical
E. C. T. C. football team
Then two quartets were chos-
en, one from the faculty and one
from the students. The faculty
quartet composed of Messrs.
Deal, Slay. McGinnis and Mead-
ows, sang "The Bulldog on the
Bank" and the students quartet
composed of Messrs. Van Nort-
wick, Humphrey. Cox and
Blanchard, sang two numbers,
with the able assistance of their
leader, Charlie King.
Bill Puckett was called on to
make an impromptu speech tak-
ing "My Impressions of E. C. T.

lowed by a short speech from
Mr. Deal on "The Students as

and while the crowd was eating,

the score would indicate, the
Guill rd Quakers took a 32 to 0
victory from the E. C. T. C.

urday.
The Teachers only threat came
in the second quarter when Rog-
erson got off the longest punt m
the game. 70 yards, the Quaker
safety man fumbled and the ball
was recovered for E. C. T. C,
but to no avail for it again
changed hands on a Teacher
fumble.
The Guilford team gained
most of its ground on passes.
making a total of 166 yards by
the aerial route compared to 80
on ground plays. The Teachers
making a total of 60 yards on
passes and 48 on running plays.
The Quakers were outpunted by
their opponents to the tune of
274 yards to 134.
For Guilford, Newman was
outstanding, indivually scoring
three of his teams five touch-
downs, one of them coming after
receiving a pass and making a
70 yard run. Turner and Cox
also looked good for the Quak-
ers.
Morgan and Rogerson were
outstandng for the Teachers,
Rogerson handling most of the
punting while Morgan did the
passing, and both of them car-
ried the ball several times for
good gains.
The Quaker team was unable
to pile up a big score this year
as they did last year when the
Teachers played them.

"Vision and Facts Most of us
are visionary to an extent; that
is. we see with a third eye
However, there is an element
that sometimes makes us skepti-
cal: we wonder why our visions
do not become real.
There is the vision of World
Peace. Such a condition would
he ideal hut situations existing
in the human race will always
cause wars as long as there is
hatred there car. he no World
Peace.
Then there is a vision in the
political realm to have no gov-
ernment, the people working to-
gether for the good of all, can
he no more than a dream .
In the educational realm, we
are working towards happiness
as our supreme end: hut as edu-
cation progresses, we become
more dissatisfied. There is so
much to be learned and so little
time for the learning, that we
often become discouraged.
Two theories are to be chosen j
between as the ideal in the reh- j
gious realm There is deism, the
belief that there is a God, and I
atheism, belief that there is n�
God Both cause dissatisfaction j
m the mind of the person with j
a vision, ' In deism, we wonder
how God could allow the suffer-
ing and pain evident in the j
world, on the other hand, the
atheist realizes thai there must'
be a supreme being behind crea-1
tion.
Last is the realm of individual
aspiration. People naturally
want to accomplish things. We
get beautiful visions and plan
reforms and adversities be-
come so great that our visions
are shattered.
Then what shall we do? Give
up? Answering this question in
the negative, Dr. Meadows said
that dissatisfaction is one of the
finest signs of growth in the
world. Opposition to our plans
establishes deep roots and we
must work out our own salva-
tion. We can only- work toward
our ideals.
A varied account of the open-
ing of East Carolina Teachers
College, its struggles, hardships
and successes can be gathered
from the publications that have
been established here.
The, first journalistic effort
was the Training School quar-
terly, an educational magazine.
Later, a one page paper, The
Teachers College News was
by a year book, winch pictured
printed. There were followed
the activities accurately and in-
terestingly. The first two men-
tioned have been discontinued.

the
existence of
the publications, one object has
been foremost in the minds of
the editors and faculty advisers
-to help the students and the
college.
Training School Quarterly
The Training School Quarter-
ly, an educational publication,
was issued from 1914 through
1923. It was a magazine of pro-
fessional nature, of campus ac-
tivities edited jointly by the stu-
dents and the faculty. With the
first issue of the yearbook, or
annual, the Quarterly was sus-
pended, with the summer issue
of 1923 as tin- last issue.
The last two components of
the name of the school, East
Carolina Teachers Training
School, were taken to form the
name' of this school publication.
When this school was changed to
a college by an act of the State
of the school, state, and uni
verse.
The last issue was in 1923.
Teachers College News
The East Carolina Teachers
College News was an unassum-
ing little paper when, as a sin-
gle' mimeographed sheet, sent
out to keep the alumnae in touch
with college happenings and
with each other, it made its de-
but a decade ago. in November.
1923. The next month it grew
into a clip sheet, and finally in-
to a ft ur page newspaper. Vol-
ume II. covering the 1924-25
school year, had fourteen issues.
Legislature, the same procedure
was uvd in changing the name
of the magazine. the Teacher.
College Quarterly, but the na
ture remained the same. The
only changed feature in the
cover

This
was the change in the
magazine came into
tin' last appearing in June. 192.r.
Then the' little paper was no
more, being succeeded by the
Tcco Echo.
By glancing through the files
of the News, we can get a fairly
complete' picture of the college
of ten years ago. President
Wright was kept as busy as to-
day, making speeches to various
educational bodies; Misses Gray
and Lewis, and Mrs. Jeter were
also busy on the campus trees, to
mention but a few.

FREDDIE TURNER
TALKS TO Y. W. C. A.
Freddie Turner, talked to the
Y V. C. A Friday night. Oct-
ober 27. on "The Bible He
asked us to consider the Bible
a one wonderful book composed
of sixty-six books. So many
people are ignorant of the real
meaning and the origin of the
Bible. It took centuries for the
followers of God, and later,
Christ's followers, to complete
the book which was written as
an expression of the Jewish life
of the earliest period, and of the
beginning of Christian life.
A true and living idea of the
Bible will put aside doubt aris-
ing from modern scientific study.
for the Bible is an expression of
God Himself, an inspired work.
We should study the Bible so as
to know better the best way of
letting our lives shine as an ex-
pression of the life of Christ.
Such study will bring us a true
revelation of God.
DR. WRIGHT MAKES
LAYMAN TALK SUNDAY
During the regular morning
services last Sunday our college
President gave a short talk on
"Youth" in his usual interesting
and pleasant manner. He being
a man who has dealt with youth
since he was only a young man
gave some very interesting and
helpful advice to the older gene-
cations as how they should help
youth in every way possible to
grow as they would have the
material things they build to
grow. Although his talk took up
only a very short period of the
church program it gave much
food for thought to the young as
well as the older generation.
This talk was the last of a
series that has been given every
Sunday morning during the wor-
ship hour by laymen, and also
was in the last of a series of
services to be broadcasted over
the radio station WEED from
the Methodist Church.
i ing .

jthe faculty tha
I to establish an
j lication.
The first number was not on-
I ly a Senior number but a re-
' cord of the early struggles of
the Training School, giving a
summary of the history of the
college.
Succeeding number had more
space allotted to professional
articles. Each succeeding spring
issue was devoted to the senior
activities, taking the place of an
annual. The staff was made up
of one faculty editor and four
student editors, two selected
from both the Lamer and Poe
Societies, the editor-in-chief and
managing editor being chosen
alternately from the societies.
The students holding these peti-
tions were well qualified as they
were selected by the faculty.
Miss Mamie E. Jenkins was ap-
pointed faculty editor by the
faculty advisory board and re-
mained throughout the entire
life of the magazine with the
exception of the 1922-23. She
was then on leave of absence,
and Dr. Leon K. Meadows filled
the vacancy.
The articles in the first part
of the magazine covers a wide
range of subjects of educational
importance from concrete local
problems to those of national
interest.
The professional articles were
written by faculty members, a
few by students, and a number
of people of authority who con-
tributed by invitation.
The division of practical sug-
gestions was written by the
girls themselves who were then
doing their practice teaching in
the model school. Most of these
articles, are. plans which they
found useful in their practice
teaching. Many helpful and
useful articles for the primary
and grammar grade teachers
are given.
Campus activities, dealing
with the organization on the
campus, their duties, their lead-
ers, and their benefits, formed
much of the college news re-
ported.
The Alumnae News devoted
its section to the news of the
graduates.
The editorials were based
largely on the editorial com-
ments on various existing prob-
lems confronting the schools, and
on the articles in the magazine.
Later editions of the Quarter-
ly devoted a section to Reviews:

two on the

"Training S
"Model School Society initia-
tions were also fall events. The
Poes held a lantern parade
through the town as part of their
celebration.
Interest in where the students
come from has been aroused by
Rally Day. Did you realize that
a decade ago Pitt County led
the representation, as it does to-
day, and that Virginia, Tennes-
see. South Carolina, and even
Pennsylvania were represented?
One of the big events of the
1923-24 college year was the
May Day celebration, Athletic
contests, and the crowning of
the May Queen in which all or-
ganizations on the campus par-
ticipated.
Important events of the 1924-
25 year were the Senior play.
"Lucy Windemere's Fan coach-
ed by Mr. Deal and Miss Hoop-
er, the play "Prunella and a
Piano Recital by the combined
C and D classes.
The Teco Echo, the present
college paper took the place of
the College News Letter.
The Tecoan
The first volume of the Te-
coan, published in 1923, had as
its purpose the portrayal of cam-
pus life. It was dedicated to
President Wright.
Among the things found in
this edition are: many clubs,
scenes from Blue Ridge, a pic-
ture of the Lanier Glee Club, a
page of Y. W. C. A. activities,
and many snapshots from cam-
pus life. There was a "B" Class
Picture, and Junior-Senior Class
pictures. There were no boys
pictures.
In 1924 the annual had practi-
cally doubled in size. This year
it was dedicated to Dr. Meadow-s.
The Tecoan contained indivi-
dual pictures of the Junior Nor-
mal class, scenes from some of
the plays which had been given
and conference scenes taken at
Blue Ridge and at Washington.
In the athletic section is found,
a track team, a tennis team, a
hiking club, a baseball club, and
a basketball team�all for girls.
Of clubs there were many,
among the foremost were: coun-
ty clubs, A. D. D. S. Club, a
Big Time Club, an Ace of Clubs,
and a Wanderer's Club, One Co-
ed was pictured.
In 1925 the Tecoan was dedi-
cated to Mr. Deal, who was busi-
ness adviser. It contained a pic-
ture of the trustees, two indivi-
pictures of the following clubs:
K. K. K. K Hill-Billies, J. M.s.
and various other county clubs.
The Phi Epsilon's are found for
the first time in the Tecoan.
Mr. Herbert Austin, a charter
member of the faculty was hon-
ored in the Tecoan for 1926. Miss
Morton appeared for the first
time as lady principal.
Scenes of the campus, and pic-
tures of the superlatives were
done in brown. A clever scheme
using Indian pictures unified the
book. Other pictures found are
of the Senior-Normal statistics,
Phi Sigma's, Lanier and Poe So-
ciety speakers, a college quartet,
and several new feature clubs-
Left Handed, Pals, and Red-
heads. '
In 1927 the Tecoan was dedi-
cated to Miss Sellie Joyner Da-
vis, a most fitting dedication
since the theme was North Caro-
lina history.
A most ingenious scheme for
unity was used. Pictures of fam-
ous buildings in several North
Carolinian eastern cities were
shown.
The feature section of super-
latives included: the prettiest
four students in colonial cos-
tume, and other representative
students pictured as famous
masterpieces, such as "The Jes-
ter "The Song of the Lark
and "Baby Stuart
The 1928 Tecoan was dedicated
to Misses Jenkins and Graham,
two charter members of the fa-
culty who had been life-long
friends and schoolmates.
The theme of the book was
worked as a drama with divi-
sions as acts.
May Day with its May Queen,
Junior-Senior Banquet, Com-
mencement, and Athletic Skill
were pictured for the first time.
There were pictures of the Em-
erson Society in 1928.
Perhaps the cleverest plan
was used in featuring the super-
latives, who ptrtrayed women
characters from Shakespeare.
To Dr. Slay, a constant worker
on the annual, came the dedica-
tion in 1929.
The Tecoan contained pictures
of its Co-eds, its May Queen.

dual pictures of the Seniors, five
rent topics and future articles group pictures of the C's, and
the regular trend of annuals.
"When knighthood was in
flower" formed the unifying
scheme. This time the book
was divided into idyls rather
than chapters.
The Tecoan for 1931 showed a
Co-ed Club, a Junior Cabinet,
and a Student Volunteer Group.
Leading women of yesterday
made up the unifying scheme.
Elizabeth M. Steele, Cornelia
Phillips Spencer, Sallie S. Cot-
ten, and Dolly Madison were
the women who were used.
The Tecoan borrowed the
quaintness of the colonial sam-
pler for its theme in 1932. A
cross stitch bordered the pic-
tured articles.
Superlatives were costumed
in colonial gowns.
Besides the campus scenes,
pictures of Seniors, Juniors,
Sophomores, Freshmen, "D" and
"C" classes, and the faculty.
There were the clubs, societies
and an orchestra. It was a prize-
winning edition in the N. C. C.
P. A.
In 1933 the annual was dedi-
cated to the City of Greenville.
The theme was that of the ad-
vance and progress made by the
world.
Superlatives were done in col-
or for the first time. Otherwise
a similar form as those before
was used.
The annual has had a very-
live history, and its progress has
just begun.
Teco Echo
The demand from the student
body that a real newspaper de-
voted to student problems, met
with the approval of the autho-
rities of the college. Therefore,
a Student paper, edited and
written by the students with the
aid of the faculty advisers, was
started. This is the way the
Teco Echo came into existence,
and the isue appeared Decem-
ber 19, 1925, with Deanie Has-
kett and Frances Smith as edi-
tor-in-chief and business mana-
ger; both girls members of the
Senior class. This paper was,
made possible by the untiring
efforts of the student govern-
ment association and the careful
consideration of the members of
the faculty.
The first paper was a six page
edition, 12 1-2 x 17 inches, with
5 columns, each 2 1-8 inches
wide. This remained the stand-
ard size until 1928, when it was
changed to 17 x 22 inch paper
with five .2 inch columns. In
