Thirteenth Annual Meeting of
the North Carolina College H-
ference that met in Greensb iro
last week. Dr. McGinnis was
V ice-President of this Confer-
ence this past year and served
on two committees; they were
committees of "Student Mortal-
ity and "Cooperative Research
The Conference is composed of
all North Carolina colleges and
Junior colleges. The meetings
are held annually for the pur-
pose of discussing problems that
concern them. The central
theme of this meeting was "Co-
operative Relations Between the
High Schools and College
Questions were brought up as to
whether or not the aim of the
high school is to prepare stu-
dents for college, or to prepare
them in vocational measures for
the future that does not include
a college education.
Another outstanding question
that was brought up was wheth-
er or not the evaluation of the
High School should be placed on
the basis of the quality of the
graduate (this to be reckoned
;by achievement tests) or on a
' physical basis. The latter pertains
to the number of books in the
library, amount of science equip-
ment, or the number of build-
ings.
The outstanding addresses of
! the conference were made by
Dr. George Roeiner, of Peabody
j College. Dr. A. T. Allen, State
? Superintendent of Public In-
struction, and Dr. William H.

is to arrange a program for chil-
dren of grammar grade age, so
that they may listen in and be

Many schools in the state are
provided with radios for the
benefit of the pupils. Miss

pils show much interest in these

proximately seventy-five dele-
gates present.
Registration took place Thurs-
day afternoon. This was follow-
ed by a tea in the Y hut given
by the Teco Echo and Tecoan
Staffs. Misses Holtzclaw and
Jenkins were assisted in serving
by members of the Home Econo-
mic Club.
The feature of the meeting
was a banquet given at the wo-
man's club Thursday night. Dr.
R. H. Wright was introduced to
the delegates by Gene Newsome.
Dr. Wright in his words of wel-
come stressed the fact that the
members there were the future
journalists of the world, and
that although the Press was not
taken seriously its influence was
far-reaching.
Carl Goerch, editor of the
State and member of the Board
of Trustees of the college, was
the guest speaker.
Mr. Goerch said that an unus-
ual story should be played up
rather than the usual one. To
illustrate his point, he related
several incidents that have been
printed in North Carolina pa-
pers. He said never to investi-
gate the stories which you hear.
He also told of his method of
how to break into magazine
work. He said that in his opin-
ion newspaper work was one of
the most interesting kinds to be
had. He said that newspaper
men worked in complete har-
mony from the editor to the
linotype operator. He said that

play.
The cast is well-fitted for the
roles they take. Several of the
members have taken part in
plays presented here or in other
colleges.
The story is centered around
the plot woven by Blanche In-
gram (Ruth Stroupe to pre-
vent her losing a fortune left to
her by her father. The clause
in the will prevents her marry-
ing Clarence Topping (Paul
FitzgeralcD. a sauve lawyer, who
desiring to possess both Blanche
and her money, does his best to
help in the plot.
To override the clause, they
decide to go to a hospital which
is run by Dr. Gordon Spencer
(Freddie Turner), and ask him
to select the oldest and most in-
firm inmate of the sanatorium to
become the husband of Blanche.
Unwilling, at first, to do it. he
finally agrees: and with the help
of the English servant, Judd.
(Jack Humphrey) one of the
men in the hospital is prepared
for the ceremony.
In the meantime, Tom Burton
(Then Easom), has seen Blanche
and is determined that he will
marry her. He asks Dr. Spencer
to let him change places with
the old man and marry her. Dr.
C. C. W Spencer refuses, and unknown
him Burton does change
places and impersonate the old
man. The rest of the romance
between the two is taken up
with the wooing of the girl, af-
ter she has been won. Mildred
Dixon takes the part of the
nurse. Kate Turner, who falls in
love with Dr. Spencer, thereby
weaving two romances into the
same story.

RECOGNIZE RUSSIA
WHY NOT A HOXOR SYSTEM
In the National Student Mirror, Hay-
; Weeks, who was formerly President
of the Student Government Association at
the I niversitj oi Ninth Carolina, has writ-
ten an article on "A Place for the Honor
System
We might say that a plea for the honor
? m be extended to our college. Some
ol tiie Departments use the Honor System,
and they have found that it is one of the
best ways to handle what would often be a
difficult situation.
Mr. Weeks said that the honor system
a thing to be lived not defined. He said
? .t can be no real virtue where there is
no oj portunity for vice. Remove freedom
oi choice between good and evil and char-
acters closer to develop. No morality was
or created by legislative ordinance, nor
preserved by police supervision.
How can the character of anybody be
built when a chance for it to grow is not
given. The Honor System gives a chance
. characters to develop.
No doubt, in some cases it would not
work: nothing lias ever been made that
worked equally well with all people.
It would, however have a good effect
on the students. When you are old enough
to go to college, you are supposed to be old
enough to know how to do right. If we
continue the old plan and have teachers
stationed as guards, the students will evi-
dently lose every confidence in their abil-
ity that they had.
Professor Edward S. Joyner, of the Uni-
versity of South Carolina, said in the de-
fense of the honor system: "The only true
system for the education of a gentleman is
the honor system?that is, the system of
mutual confidence and respect
To teach people to be honest, we must
give them a chance to be. We should give
the Honor System a chance in all of the de-
partments in our School.
THANKSGIVING, EVERY DAY
The first Thanksgiving Day was cele-
brated by the early colonist as a symbol of
the thankfulness that God had been with
them their first winter in a new land.
Today, we celebrate Thanksgiving with
the same spirit. We should thank God that
He has been with us throughout the year.
Not only should one day be Thanksgiving
Day, but we should call every day a day
of thanksgiving. Let us thank God through-
out the year for the many blessings he has
bestowed on us.
With the announcement from Moscow
and Washington that Russia and the Uni-
ted States will try to establish normal re-
lations, and discard the abnormal situation
that has existed between the two countries
for the past sixteen years; optimism has
been instilled in many of the countries of
Europe.
With the serious situation in the far
East. and in other countries; it was one of
the most undiplomatic things to do when
the United States refused to recognize that
a country as large and as powerful as Rus-
sia existed. No matter if we continue to
refused her recognition, she was still there,
and growing more powerful every day. To
have a representative in the. capital of Rus-
sia is much better than to get information
about the Soviet Government through un-
official sources.
Naturally, there will be many problems
to settle before the recognition is fully
agreed upon; but the good that Russia and
the United States can do the world by the
recognition will more than compensate for
the hardships before them, before the pol-
icy of non-recognition is abandoned.
One of the problems in our own coun-
try today is the sale of locomotives, farm
implements and other heavy machinery.
The United States cannot use as much of
the heavy machinery that is manufactured
here. Russia, on the other hand, is vitally
in need of the very things of which the
United States cannot buy at this time.
Although Russia is manufacturing loco-
motives every day, she cannot begin to sup-
ply the demand unless help is given. Her
broad-guaged railroad standard makes the
United States the one country in the world
that can be of immediate help to her. Farm
machinery is also in demand by the Russia
people. The sale of farm implements in the
United States has decreased to almost
nothing in the last five years. The sale of
farm implements to Russia will also be of
much help to the manufacturers in the
United States.
These are only two of the articles
manufactured in the United States that will
be imported. The whole trade relations be-
tween the two countries will without a
doubt do the most good that can be done
at this critical time.
The United States must recognize Rus-
sia in order to show the world that con-
trasting ideas and ideals can live peacefully
side by side, and to help the millions of
people who would be greatly benefitted by
the trade that can be developed with the
Soviet Union.
The world today is independent, there-
fore, the United States should recognize
Russia as her neighbor, friend, and co-
worker.
WHAT OF THANKSGIVING
What Other
People Say
SPIRIT OF THE TAR HEEL
When the last Thursday in November
comes, that one day set apart by the nation
in which we all pause to give thanks, how
do we express our feelings or emotions? Do
we unconsciously take part in some form of
observance on this day? Do we really stop
to consider why we do things to make oth-
ers happy on this day? And this is what
we attempt to do in some form; probably
we send food, fuel, or clothing to someone
who needs them. We send cards to friends,
making some wish for their happiness. Whyi
not look about us, check up, and express our
thanks to those who have made our life
here happier?
Are we accepting things, taking them
for granted as if it were only to be expect-
ed? It sometimes takes strangers to open
our eyes to the beauty and happiness of our
environment. We could make people hap-
pier on our campus by simply saying to
them, "thank you thereby making every
day a day of thanks.
J. M. B.
The old spirit of conservatism
in the Tar Heel state manifested
itself again in the vote against
repeal on November 7 after one
of the greatest campaigns that
the state has ever known. Such
an act of courage and adherence
to right principles, will become
one of the proudest chapters in
the history of North Carolina.
A recent editorial has charac-
terized North Carolina as slow
in decision and action. True, she
is slow in making decisions, con-
servative as she always has been
in lending herself to a new ex-
periment just because all those
around her have been swept
away by the idea of a new en-
terprise. On the other hand, af-
ter a quick and well-organized
battle, North Carolina has stood
out, the first to break the solid
column of the states. In the
face of evident repeal she kept
the faith, leaning on the princi-
ples of her own judgment and
acting as she thought best for
the protection of humanity and
the country.
Now she stands facing two
major problems. Her next at-
tention will be turned toward
means of keeping intoxicating li-
quors from crossing her borders
and toward temperance educa-
tion for her youth.
She has made for herself a
firm foundation for further ac-
tion and with how much more
confidence will she be able to
act since the stand she has taken.
Although she represents a min-
ority in this matter, she is sure
to catch the attention of the
young people of our whole coun-
try, and it is with a clear cons-
cience that she wil Iturn to ask
their cooperation.

FREDDIE TURNER EXPLAINS
ORIGIN OF ENGLISH FLAG
Mr. Freddie Turner, a native
of England, who is the only stu-
dent at East Carolina Teachers
College from another country,
made a most interesting talk on
his country's flag at one of the
Student Chapel programs, giving
in vivid style the history of
the English flag, and its symbo-
lism.
He made his audience realize
the extent of the British Empire
by telling them this flag flies
over one-third of the earth's
surface. He called the countries
coming directly under the flag,
the children of England, and the
American states, the forty-eight
grand-children. He said Eng-
land was prouder of none of her
grand-children than of North
Carolina. He called himself an
internationalist rather than a
nationalist. He concluded by
showing that the cross is a sym-
bolism of Christianity that binds
together all countries and races
with true internationalism.
The students were especially
interested in his description of
the formation of the English
flag. The Union Jack is a com-
bination of two flags. The first
flag of a white background and
red cross, which he showed the
students, was a symbol of King
George. In 1804, the Scottish
flag of blue background and
white cross was combined with
the banner of King George and
thus the English flag became a
combination of two flags. Later
this banner was combined with
the flag of Ireland; the English
flag was not only a combination
of two flags but of three, the
colors being red, white and blue

"The very first one is a pain

for the love o' Mike let me get

I see we have a FULLILOVE

TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR
As you say, "She may be empty,
but I'll tell the world she's
clean
But when the sheet is printed
and is out upon the mail,
On its way to the subscribers I
have never seen it fail?
In the center of the front page,
in some conspicuous place,
Some typographical error fairly
kicks you in the face.
For the typographical error is a
slippery thing and sly,
You can hunt 'till you are dizzy,
but it somehow will get by,
Till the forms are off the press
it is strange how still it keeps,
It shirks down into a corner and
it never stirs or peeps
That Typographical error too
small for human eyes,
Till the ink is on the paper,
when it grows to mountain size,
And you see that blasted error,
far as you could throw a dog,
Looming up in all its splendor,
like lighthouse in a fog!
That blaring blunder juts out
like an ulcerated tooth,
Where it dodged the eagle vision
of the napping comma sleuth.
?News-Times, Maroa, 111.
As to Miss Greene's hobby,
she declares that she doe not
have any particular one How-
ever she likes to read. .tv and
work m a garden.
She reads a variety of things.
Our English professor sayssheis
not particularly fond ol poetry,
but she likes practically all types
of prose. Her range is from de-
tective stones to turn- written
in French. Right now lH' is
reading a biography of Shelley
by a Frenchman. It is entitled
"La Ariel, la Vie do Shelley
by Maurois. Then .she keep- up
with the subjects she teaches
through the recent magazine
and newspapers. In conjunction Ilead
with her subject, she finds it
nee ary to read many new
book . also. She says she aver-
age ? ? biography to two nov-
el of tiie m w books.
When her time permits her
to sew. she takes delight in mak-
ing clothes for hersMf. She ays
she especially likes to make
dresses, "and makes many that
she wears.
Along with the other teaeh-
ers, she ha a garden. It is about gates wen
fifteen by fifteen feet square.jferenct
She says she thoroughly en-
joys working among her flow-
ers. She has never planted any
j vegetables. ? Her fun seen I i
lie in watching the flowers
I grow. At first, she declares she
was impatient about waning for
I them to come up. She even ad-
mits that she pulled a few up,
to see why they waited so long.
Now the same garden is very
pretty and she gets a great d aJ
of pleasure working there.
Did You Know?
ITS NONE OF MY BUSINESS
Of course, it's none of my
business, but don't you just hate
the people, who, when they get
one or two letters, insist on
telling the whole school about
it? They not only do that, but
crowd you into a corner and in-
sist upon reading you dispatches
from the letter about people and
places you have never heard of
before. They go among us poor
unfortunate mortals crackling
the paper, taking the letter in
and out of the envelope, mean-
while condescendingly gazing
upon us with a look of great
superiority mingled with pity.
They take the letters to lunch
and read them over for the
benefit of those who were not
forunate enough to hear the first
reading. Then, for fear they will
slight the day students, they
proceed to their classrooms and
tell theirs, their parents and
their various relatives' opinions
on the current topics of the day.
Gr-r-r-r? wouldn't you just love
to kick them in their most kick-
able part?
Huh? ?No?of course it's none
of my business.
It's none of my business, but:
Don't you hate the people who
ask you if you had a big time
during the summer?
I wonder what some of the up-
perclassmen are thinking about
the "Green Freshmen" taking
co-eds away from them?
Do you know who the girls
were that tore up a certain girl's
room in Cotten the other night,
and a house meeting was called?
I wonder why a certain red-
headed Freshman is interested in
one of the critic teachers at the
high school?
I wonder who changed all the
calling cards in Fleming Hall
the other night.
Isn't the lake a grand place to
have a date?
Don't you just hate for people
to stand and talk to you in a
loud voice and be looking some-
where to see if they are being
watched?
Can't you just tell a freshman
by the way she goes through the
revolving doors of the library?
Don't you just love to see a
Freshman walk up to a dignified
senior and say, "Are you a
Freshman, too?"
Did you hear about the Fresh-
man who asked Miss Williams
what course she was taking?
Don't you just hate to hear
girls squeal when they start
hunting bugs for Science.
Did you ever see a more pleas-
ing sight than a co-ed getting
stuck over at the Campus build-
ing?
I wonder who slings this mess?

though November 11-30, 1933 is
the time designated for the call,
the whole year is set aside for

Opportunities for expressing
practical idealism abound in the
service of our national disaster
relief organizations. Today, as
never before, the nation needs
the enlightenment and direction
that the college-trained man and
the woman can give.
The service of the Red Cross
is outstanding. It is the organi-
zation that helps in all disasters.
The work will be hard for the
next few months, and the youth
of the college world are invited
to participate.
Join the Red Cross and help
them in their great work.

There has been several open
forum articles, and many ex-
pressions from the girls in re- j
gard to the ability of the foot- j
bail team. One of the boys on j
the campus who has heard a
great deal of the criticism has !
written the following article.
This article is an expression
from the whole squad.?Editor's
note.
Old Lady Luck has been an
ever present factor in every
game we have played this year,
and not being here last year I
can't say for sure, but I have
heard that she wasn't the least
bit lenient toward our maiden
team. Not being satisfied with
putting John Kapelec, star end,
on the shelf early in the season
and Poss Sumrell, regular tackle,
out several weeks ago with a
busted knee, Lady Luck laugh-
ed in the face of a fighting bunch
of teachers, when she handed us
the 0 end of an 8 to 0 win, as we
played the P. J. C. boys here
the fourth of October. The first
two points came in the third
period when an exchange of
punts, Rogerson was forced to
try a kick from behind our own
goal line; because of a bad pass
from center the ball was fum-
bled and Rogerson was knocked
out as he covered the ball. Was
that tough, I ask you? The oth-
er six points were given to them
when a pass was knocked down
and intercepted by a P. J. C.
man on the one yard line. Inci-
dentally we held that one yard
for three downs, and then old
Lady Luck decided it was time
to act again so she pulled Bink
Cox, our center of gravity or
something just as important.
from the game with a busted
knee. The P. J. C. boys then
managed to edge the ball over
recovered! a substitution center for the
other six points. Now was that
Lady Luck?
Fellow students please don't
think we are softies for trying
to defend ourselves from what
we believe is unjust criticism.
for it would be utterly impossi-
ble for us to carry on from one
defeat to another without some
form of consolation. It will
probably be news to some of
you to know that the football
team had become a joke to a
small minority of the student
body. You, who have laughed
at the team or made insinuating
remarks in the presence of some
football player, will probably
wince at such plain outspoken
sentiment, when before the
game Saturday, you would prob-
ably have smiled a little sad
smile and gone on pitying us
poor fools for even hanging
around. Well mind we are not
looking for backstreets to walk
on any longer, as the Campbell
boys said they were going to
have to do, and it isn't going to
be so easy for them either, be-
cause Theo Easom who was once
a Campbell man, said there are
only two streets there and they
are both in front of the College.
Perhaps you don't realize it, or
haven't seen for yourself yet,
but from the first kick-off until
the final whistle blows, we have
eleven men in there fighting
their best and giving every
ounce of energy we have, win or
lose. Its a known fact that
Campbell College has the star
athletes from many of N. Cs
leading high school teams. P. J.
C. and Guilford probably get
their players the same way. It
is generally recognized as a fact
that N. C. State college paid out
$15,000 in order to get their
Freshman team this year. They
have the star players from high
schools and prep schools all over
the North.
Fellow students we are not
asking for $15,000 or half that
amount, what we want is, your
confidence, laugh with us and
not at us. Stand behind the
team and boost it. You are an

In keeping with the spirit of
Armistice Day, the local football
boys fought their way to a hard
won victory over Campbell. The
Teachers by far surpassed their
usual game and they were able
to threaten in every period and
score in the third.
The locals started the game
off with a nice march down the
field that ended on Campbell's
4 yard line. Then both teams
settled down to a punting duel
in which the Teachers held a
slight edge. "
The second half seemed to
lend new life to the locals and
they were able to score early in
the third period. The score
came after the Teachers had re-
ceived a punt on Campbell's
35 yard stripe, Puckett returned
the kick for fifteen yards and
then the fireworks started. A
pass. Morgan to Rogerson gain-
ed 10 yards and a first down.
Rogerson circled right end for
six yards then he repeated for
3 3-4 yards. On the next play
Campbell was penalized for five
yards; this put the ball on
Campbell's 1 yard strip. Roger-
son scored on an off tackle play.
The toy for point failed.
In the last quarter the teach-
ers staged a march which start-
ed on their own 40 yard line and
ended on Campbell's 11 yard
strip, here they lost the ball on
downs. Campbell then vainly
attempted to pass their way to
a tally but their efforts were cut
short by the ending whistle.
It would be impossible to pick
any star from the twelve men
that played for the Teachers.
Each and every one of them was
playing heads-up football; the
teamwork was perfect. For the
visitors Humphries stood head

GLEANINGS FROM ABROAD
POE SOCIETY PRESENTS "HER TEMPORARY HUSBAND
Dear Editor:
For the last two years, if not
before, there has been m North
Carolina a state of affairs m the
educational realm which some
to call back-
WC(
lia
qu?
people are prone
ward step in education. Teach
ers salaries and tin- amount al-
d tor educational purposes
been cut on every side. The
turn that some of us are
asking is. "Where will it lead
us?"
Probably, if you would go
back and study the progress of
education and the methods of
education you will find that with
the growth of the American na-
tion there has been a growth in
the educational methods and the
type of education that has been
given to those in this state as in
this nation. In Washington's
day with the leisure of the colo-
nial people there was a great
deal of the learning of the finer
things if Latin. Roman History,
Greek and such make up the
finer things. Music of a certain
type was afforded to many of
the aristocracy who could af-
ford it and had the time to give
to it. Writing, reading and
arithmetic had their place in
the education of the "gentle-
man To those of the working
class, was allowed the privilege
of learning as much as they
could when and where they
could.
Then America turned educa-
tionally minded.
In the past the schools have
done what they could to prepare
for the coming future. Music
and arts were added to make
well rounded and educated citi-
zens but it cannot be provided
now. Arc we really preparing
for these future citizens? What
are they going to do with eight
hours leisure time if they haven't
been taught what they can use
it for'?
We may well wonder whether
education is advancing when we
realize that something like nine
thousand (9000) children will
have shorter terms, less money
than ever before for necessities
and less teachers to guide them
along the road to future worth-
while citizenship.
And while wondering about
these things we may wonder
about two other questions that
come to our minds. Are we
unduly cutting down on school
expenses and will these things
improve? With the added tax
and boosting of prices by the re-
covery program the school
standard will necessarily be
lowered but are we going to
remedy the situation when
things are on solid ground
again? Will this be a merely
silent period of standstill or is
-air future citizenship going to
suffer many years to come?
According to statistics released
at Duke University, non-frater-
nity men have a better scholastic
average for the past year than
members of the fraternities.
At Washington and Lee Uni-
versity the students pay a poll
tax which entitles them to the
right to vote in all campus elec-
tions and the right to hold cam-
pus office.
At State there is a plan under-
way to have a uniform fee for
all students who wish to have a
picture in the College Annual
instead of having a different fee
for each class. The plan is to
have each student pay $3.00.
Back in the seventies at Penn-
sylvania State College, the per-
mission of the President as well
as the approval of the Dean of
Women was necessary to secure
a date with a co-ed.

The University of Chicago has

Dear Editor:
It is a disgrace to the College
to even have to say anything
about the amount of stealing go-
ing on around the campus. How-
ever, something has got to be
done because every student is
afraid to leave her room or ever
to leave a pencil lying around.
With as many students as we
have here, it is impossible to
hove a student body, absolutely
free from rogues. Our college
has prided itself on the high
morale of the student body, and
it is one of the more regretful
things that has happened that
stealing has crept into the col-
lege.
We are going to have to do
something in order to make it
safe for your property.
Unless the stealing is stopped,
the chool will suffer more than
in almost anything else happen

THE HOBBY OF DR. ARTHUR
DeWITT FRANK
Dear Editor:
It seems to me that it would
be better for basketball goals to
be lengthwise in the Campus
building instead of crosswise.
Our boys are used to playing on
this court but when they go to
other colleges for games their
courts are opposite from ours,
and they run themselves to
death, never accomplishing
much.
Another thing, most of the
spectators sit on the sides of the
auditorium, rather than at the
ends. As it fs the game is not
so easily watched. If the goal
post were moved this would be
eliminated. It would cost little
and would be a great improve-
ment.
Dr. Frank, head of the his-
tory department, declares his
hobby to be snorts. He says he
likes all of themathletics
hunting, and even fish hooks
in his finger. He has taken part
in many of them but does not
think himself proficient.
Ever since he was twleve
years old, he has been hunting.
In his illustrious high school
days he won four letters in ath-
letics.
In the good old days when
our college had big interclass
basketball games at Thanksgiv-
ing Dr. Frank coached them.
Now he serves on our athletic
committee.
Six men in our faculty have
a hunting club of whicn our
professor of history is a mem-
ber. Right now Dr. Frank at-
tends sport events and hunts
and fishes ever so often. One
thing Greenville has given him
is the opportunity to hunt?the
first he has had since gradua-
tion from high school (omitting
the war of course). All sport
columns are absorbed by him.
And then the most receni chance
he has had to enjoy his hobby
are the thrilling football games
An old map has been discov-
ered in Turkey which is believed
to be one which was copied di-
rectly from the original which
was the guide Columbus used
on his voyage which ended in
the discovery of the New World.
On the theory that the original
map may also be lying in some
musty vault in the country,
Turkish authorities
a search for it.
The first society to be orga
ni.cd on the campus was a de
bating society organized October
15. 1910, by the boys on the
Campus. The society was named
the Jarvis Society in honor of
Governor Thomas J. Jarvis, who
is often referred to as the father
of the college. The adviser of
the society was Dr. L. R. Mead-
ows. J. L. Raw Is was the Presi-
dent of the scoiety. The Yice-
President was S. F. Hinton: Sec-
retary, Zan Harper, and Treas-
i urc-r. Robert Jones.
From the minutes of the facul-
ty it is found that the faculty
of East Carolina Teachers Train-
ing School at a meeting held on
January 10, 1911. adopted a re-
port of its social activities which
recommended the organization of
two literary societies for the
young ladies of the school.
This committee made the fol-
lowing suggestions with refer-
ence to the organizing of the so-
cieties:
1. That a faculty committee
be appointed to make two lists
of all students who wish to join
societies.
2. That after the lists have
been prepared, the students be
called together to draw for lists.
That this be done by two of
their number selected by them
for that purpose. That those
whose names on list A be made
up the membership of one socie-
ty and those on list B, the mem-
bership of the other.
3. The faculty members of
these societies be determnied as
follows:
A. That the President of the
School and the Lady Principal
of the school by virtue of their
offices, be considered honorary
members of both.
B. That each of the other
members of the faculty be an
honorary member of one or the
other of these societies, that the
particular society affiliation of
each member of the faculty be
determined each year by lot.
4. A committee of three con-
sisting of a faculty member and
two students from each society,
a combined committee of six
shall constitute an inter-society
committee for the purpose of
drawing up a constitution and
by-laws for the two societies and
the election of officers shall pro-
ceed as provided for by the con-
stitution.
A faculty committee consisting
of Mr. C. W. Wilson, Chairman
List B winch later became
known as the Sidney Lanier
Literary Society contained fifty-
two members to be known as
the charter members of the so-
ciety. List A contained the
members of the Poe Society.
During the first years of the
societies, initiation was carried
on by the new members being
brought in by the Inter-Society
chairman. They were given af-
firmation (if membership by the
secretaries of the societies. The
Presidents then in a few pleas-
ant words welcomed the new-
girls to the societies.
The B Society which later be-
came the Sidney Lanier Literary
Society held its first meeting,
February 14, 1911 in the Assem-
bly Hall of the school.
Two names for the societies?
Sidney Lanier and Edgar Allen
Poe were put in a box and the
secretaries of each society drew.
The B. Society secretary report-
ed to the society that she had
drawn the name Sidney Lanier.
Tins announcement was greeted
with applause. The society was
then to be known as The Sid-
ney Lanier Literary Society of
East Carolina Teachers Training
School while the A Society be-
came the Edgar Allen Poe So-
ciety.
The colors, dark green and
gold were decided upon by the
members of the Lanier society
The methol of dividing the
school into two equal groups,
and making the two lists wa.
followed until about ten year.
ago. There was always intense
excitement among the students
when the lists were posted and
each new girl tried to find on
which list her name had been
placed.
In 1926. the Emerson Society
was formed by having volun-
teers from the other two socie-
ties become charter members of
the new society. From that time
until the present, the students
have made their own decision as
to which society they would
join.
1927 was the first year to see
the three society booths in the
main corridor of the Austin
Building which are used for "So-
ciety Day
At the meeting of the faculty,
April 11, 1912. the following
resolutions were adopted provid-
ing for the number and manner
of election of commencement
marshals.
Resolved, First that the com-
mencement marshals each year
shall consist of nine, one chief
marshal and eight assistants.
Second, That the chief mar-
shal shall be elected by one of
the literary societies one year
and the other the next in alter-
nating order. That the choice
shall be made from the members

tree times. The Emer-

sometime during the year.
After the societies had begun
their work, the? decided to un-
dertake some jint projects, and
present gifts to the college.
In 1911. Mr. 11. E. Austin then
of the Lanier Society offered a
resolution to be adopted by the
Poe society, should it see fit. The
n-solution was that the societi
work together and have por- J
traits made of the two men to
whom the school owes a debt ol
gratitude and loveGovernor
Jarvis and Mr. Ragsdalc.
In a later clipping from the
Society records we find that the!
committees were appointed toj
obtain funds for these painting;
They finally agreed to give-
some pay entertainments, and'
thus raise the money for thi ir
project. "The Micado a light

Miss Elizabeth Davis and was
called the "Poe Psalm It is

The first song chosen by the
Lanier society members as their
society song is not the one used

This custom continued for
many years.
year. The Emerson society
holds the chief- marshal-ship
this year.
The custom of debating was
inaugurated in 1913, and the
first inter-society debate was
held on the evening of April 12
of that same year. The query
was, Resolved: That the Women
of North Carolina Should Be
Allowed the Right of Suffrage
the Same as Men. The Lanier
Society was represented by
Luella Lancaster, Lila Dean, and
Bessie Dub, while Lois Grubbs,
Rosa Edgerton, and Corinne W.
Bright represented the Poes. The
former upheld the affirmative
and the latter, the negative side
of the question. The decision
was given in favor of the Poes.
Some of the queries used for
later debates are: Resolved; That
Foreign Immigration to the Uni-
ted States Should Be Further
Restricted. Resolved, That State,
County and City Officials Should
be Elected by Direct Primaries.
Resolved, that the People of the
United States Should Uphold

and the plans.were made to have
portraits painted of Governor
Jarvis. Professor W. Q. Ragsdale,
the two founders of our college.
The services of Mr
Busbee, then of Raleigh were
obtained, and the portraits were
completed and presented to the
college. They now hang in the
main corridor of the Austin
Building. At the unveiling Gov-
ernor Craig and President
Wright were the speakers.
Every organization must be-
come well established before it
can be very actively identified
with social activities, but it took
a surprisingly short time for
these literary societies to begin
their work. Whereas we now-
pay a student activity fee to
take care of entertainments and
publications, no such fee was
paid then and the societies were
responsible for the entertain-
ments that were sponsored on
the campus. These two organi-
zations began their work in
earnest, however, and many ex-
cellent entertainments were giv-
en at the college. It became a
tradition for these organizations
to entertain the other, and the
Poes would usually give musical
programs while the Laniers
would bring noted speakers to
the campus.
The two societies gave an in-
ter-society play. "Ingamra on

dressing for their first trip up
town, and after having painted,
etc they looked a little more in-
telligent than the average Fresh-
man. Most people would have
thought them Sophs, but beneath
the outer layer of the epidermis
they were just plain freshmen.
I came up behind them in front
f Wilson Hall as they were
leaving. They were chattering
like two birds making love about
their prospective trip, and I de-
cided to follow them, mostly be-
cause I'd see how I acted the first
time I went shopping without
mother, which was the first day
after I'd been registered as a
freshman several years ago.
A short distance from Five
Points they entered a little shop
which manufactures and distri-
butes the world famous Hot Dog.
1 expected them to call for a
dope and sip it through a straw,
but to my surprise they called
for a couple's dogs each and ate
them m the morning after Christ-
mas Eve style!
After finishing the first hot
? logs they'd had since the last
time they went with their dads
to sell tobacco they called for
their bills, and it took ten min-
utes for the owner and proprie-
tor to explain why it was neces-
sary for him to charge one cent
j extra for the coca colas they'd
consumed. This was the first
time they had rubbed up against
j the sales tax.
i Next place they stopped was
j Lautares' Here the larger and
, bolder of the two asked to see
some lipstick. The manager
looked at them over his glasses
and with an oar-to-ear smile said
"Kissproof Immediately the
smiles which had adorned then-
faces disappeared and the larger
one replied, "yes. we are kiss-
proof, and what have you to do
' with it if we have or have not
been kissed?" Here he most
humbly begged their pardon and
explained that he had a brand
id lipstick called Kissproof and
he only wanted to know-whether
or not they preferred that parti-
icular brand. At this the smaller
girl replied that if the other
brands were cheaper they'd take
j one of them. Before she said
i this she thought about how the
! Co-eds looked upon registration
day. (She didn't know that when
, she registered she saw only the

had bought to keep anyone from

SCIENCE CLUB MET ON
TUESDAY NIGHT, OCT. 17
FROM THE CAMPUS FLAG
POLE
The usual amount of interest
displayed by members of the
Science Club was evident at
the first meeting of the Science
Club recently.
Several years ago a Science
club was organized on the cam-
pus. Since that time it has
shown considerable growth. It
is not merely a. social club, but
an educational one as well.
Through the interesting pro-
grams members of the club are
kept in close touch with modern
science.
Since Clyde Brown did not re-
turn to school this fall, the club
decided to let Margaret Lee,
who is Vice-President will act as
president until Clyde returns in
the winter term.
The program consisted of two
talks by students. Alva Van
Nortwick, gave, in a very inter-
esting and instructive way an
account of the World's Fair. His
vivid description of the Hall of
Science gave the students a
more realistic conception of the
Fair.
Robert S. Fleming gave an in-
teresting talk on current Science.
He told in a pleasing way some
of the outstanding research work
now being carried on by scien-
tists.
The Science Club has an inter-
esting program planned for the
year. With the many varied
activities the students will keep
their interest high in their ma-
jor field.

an entertainment for the win-

After purchasing the shoes
they asked for some hose, pre-
ferably red, something to match
their shoes they said. The lady
gave them a short lecture on
what color to wear with another
color, and finally they decided,
with her help, upon tan.
When we reached Five Points
I gently tapped the shoe box un-

Well, I'm back to my perch
again. I've had a nice rest this
summer, and thanks to the sum-
mer school folks I've totally
avoided the flag pole during
those hot summer days.
Well, to get down to business?
Can anybody tell me the name
of that new co-ed what's big 'n
blonde that' always been hanging
'round with a girl what's smaller
and a brunette. I know her, but
I'm a polite flag pole sitter so
I'm not telling tales out of
school. And speakin' of blondes,
there's a certain young lady that
could be said to be alienating the
affections of a certain co-ed

were fit for one thing?that was

And from my perch I can
view the front steps of Austin
Building. This is a daily haunt
of the students so I hear quite
a bit of gossip. My work is not
to dig up dirt, but merely to tell
you what I hear-?and I hear
plenty! You must come up and
visit me sometime. I'll throw
you a rope ladder.
Along with my viewing I also
hear things. Have you noticed
how many girls taken an especial
interest in saying "Thanks"?
They begin to look dreamy, and
whether they particularly are
fond of Tennyson or Bing Crosby
I can't say, but they always
make it a point to smile when
they come to the part "It's better
to have loved and lost, than
never to have loved at all As
a flag pole sitter, I'd guess Ten-
nyson. And as for Bing, he
created quite a stir last year
with his "Please and now all
you hear is "The Day You Came

(yes, I can see that far) all I can
see is cats and test tubes. I
understand the zoology students
haven't named their pet cats
yet, but when they do I'll tell
you all what they are. Dogfish,
eels and terrapins all play their
part, too. Cats, cats, cats?both
cats with claws that show and
then those cats whose claws do
not show, but can they scratch.
Of course, I couldn't dare call
names but nevertheless you know
what I mean.
And then there is a co-ed. who
is so sought after by the girls
that he doesn't even have any
waking time to call his own.
Whatta man! He can't walk
down the campus without being
waylaid (so he says) by dozens
of girls. Again, whatta man,
Rid?oh, I almost told his name.
Pardon me, but you know a flag
pole sitter is in an uncomforta-
ble position, both literally and
figuratively speaking.
Back to the subject of the men
?are they all going nuts be-
cause of football? It seems
to me that they're pretty
far gone?that's all right; we'll
give 'em something to talk about
sure 'nough when we have a
few girl intercollegiate ball
games.
This flag pole is getting wob-

10:30 P. M. anyway and all col-
lege students are in bed, while

One of the problems of the
self-help bureau is to distribute
the assignments equally among
Departments. A record is kept
of the majors of each person
who receives help, and the as-
signments are distributed so
that the students in each de-
partment may have as nearly an
equal chance as possible.
In making out the assignments
the main points for considera-
tion are: need of aid. high schol-
arship, and nearness to gradua-
tion. Assignments are made on-
ly to students making good
grades.

any time, but they are not con-

had some real contact with col-

were three graduate managers
of publications in great universi-

advertising representative of a
large Chicago department store,
a representative of a national
concern which advertises exten-
sively in college publications,
and a number of former and
present editors and business
managers of Big Ten publica-
tions.
This year for the first time
the whole college program was
entirely separate from that for
the secondary school division of
the National Scholastic Press

order to differentiate between
the two branches of the Asso-

Superintendent Conley was

phases of education and the lo-

To make the system of this

not be thirteen tax districts, he
gave one of the chief things for
which he is working. When all

all will be the same.

WORLD FELLOWSHIP WEEK
At the vespers of Friday. Nov-
ember 10. Eloise Camp. Chair-
man of the Y. W. C. A. commit-
tee of Religious Education, was
the leader. The leader read a
short paper on Thanksgiving. It
enjoined all to give thanks, even
for apparently lessened bless-
ings, for ingratitude breeds pov-
erty. The tale of a woman who
was grateful for small blessings
was cited. She was possessed of
a very small quantity of oil. yet
had enough faith to borrow ves-
sels from her neighbors, until
everyone was filled. And as al-
ways, thoughts of Thanksgiving
swing back to that first celebra-
tion. Our brave forefathers
were facing a winter in the wil-
derness, danger from hostile In- j
dians, lack of money, and little
-to eat. Yet they had faith en-
ough to offer up thanks to their
God for what they did possess?
title to a glorious new country.
and freedom from religious per-
secution. They gave thanks in
their days of necessity and lived
for days of bounty.
Throughout the week, the Y.
W. C. A. has been observing
World Fellowship Week, in com-
mon with the organizations all
over the world. Each day at
Morning Watch, Mary Gorham,
chairman of the World Fellow-
ship group has presented pro-
grams. The girls who have
spoken are Martha Bunn Ar-
lington, Janie Outland, Frances
Watson. Eloise Camp, Ellen Jen-
kins, and Mary Gorham.

cost the county to have the same

He advised the students who
are preparing to teach in the
high schools to be careful to
select the right combinations
and not the subjects that are not
taught in the schools.

Childhood and Youth Week
was discussed by Dr. Wright at
Chapel last week. He talked
about the leisure time the chil-
dren of the country will have
now that the schools are being
operated under a eight months
school term, and the prospects
we will have in developing a
well-planned playtime.
He said in his talk:
It is an interesting thing to me
that we have set aside one week
during the year and designated
it Childhood and Youth Week.
If we are to carry on our gov-
ernment, our institutions. our
civilization, something must be
done to give children and young
people an opportunity to pre-
pare themselves for their res-
ponsibilities as mature citizens.
We all realize that if one gene-
ration of boys and girls in any
state, in any nation, should go
without education, civilization
would automatically drop back
to barbarism. It is absolutely
essential, therefore, that we give
the children and young people
an opportunity to make the most
possible of their lives and throw-
around them the kind of envi-
ronment that will help them
develop into right-minded men
and women. Of course, educa-
tion is. in a large measure, de-
pendent upon the type of schools
we have. We, in North Carolina,
are operating an eight months
school term. That leaves ap-
proximately sixteen or eighteen
weeks at one time that the child
is out of school, that he has noth-
ing to do. By decree of the
President these children cannot
work, that is be employed to do
any steady work, until they are
sixteen years of age. The young
folks from that age down are
without anything to do. On the
farms it is; different, there is
no question of their working
there. This gives the farm boy
and girl a better chance to make
good than the city boy or girl
has. We must, therefore, create
some kind of sentiment among
our citizens to give the youth
some kind of activity during this
vacation period. If we do not,
I am afraid to prophesy what
the results will be. If the presi-
dent's organization works suc-
cessfully the adults of the nation
will also have shorter working
hours, and be paid more for the
time they do work. It looks now
that we are sure to come to a
thirty hour week; that means
five hours a day for only six
days a week, which will mean
eight hours at least, and prob-
ably much more, left on the
hands of working people?and
by working people I mean
everybody except school teach-
ers and preachers. What are
mature people going to do with
that time? The schools must do
something; there must be some
organization for these mature
people that will enable them to
use their leisure time to advan-
tage. What has this to do with
Childhood and Youth Week?
Mature people set the standards
of conduct and make the envi-
ronment in which the youth
grow. If mature people are en-
gaged in activities that are
enobling they are setting that
example for the youth. We are
really face to face with the most
serious problems that have con-
fronted our nation during my
day. We will have more time
to loaf or to engage in some kind
of activities that will be elevat-
ing. The schools have recently
eliminated many things people
need to use in their leisure time
?art, music, and things that
somehow reach the soul and
make one grow better. They are
being called "frills In reality
they are the thrills that come
into human life, but those who
are shaping the destinies of
school people say we must get
back to reading, writing and
'rithmetic. There is. a utilitarian
trend in education all over the
nation, and if it dominates Je-
hovah alone can tell what will
come to our people. If we neg-
lect those things that are enob-
ling and'uplifting, if we fail to
train the youth of today to read
should.
Judge Frizzelle warned, make it
his business to speedily aid in
this sad state of affairs. It is
plain that something must be
done. New sources of revenue
must be forthcoming, from sales,
or luxury tax. or a tariff of a
different type.
Things do look dark and omi-
nous, but history shows that
every crucial period produces, aj
leader to siiow the way from
darkness into light. The Revo-
lution and the unhappy period
following it had Washington and
his contemporaries. The Civil
War boasts Lincoln, truly a great VT
leader. And today, in these cru- fn,
cial tunes it is to Roosevelt that ?)
the American public has justs- pOJ
