Air Transportation
Is Discussed At The
Science Club Meeting
New Inventions To Improve
Aviation Is Theme Of
Talks.
Hattie Lee Humphrey repre-
sented East Carolina Teachers
College at the National Student
Federation of America held at
the Mayflower Hotel in Washing-
ton, December 27 to 31. The
American University was host to
students from 32 states who
came to attend this, the ninth
annual convention of the Federa-
tion. Among the delegates were
several Japanese and Negro rep-
resentatives. Questions of na-
tional and international import-
ance were discussed.
John A. Lang, the president of
the Federation, who is a graduate
of the University of North Caro-
lina, was re-elected.
In his welcoming address, Dr.
George B. Woods, dean of the
college of Liberal Arts at
American University stated:
"Democracy must stand or fall
on the integrity of the lower
class. Ills caused by dishonesty
can be cured by honesty secured
through two methods. Teaching
pride in decency, and through
religious teaching. Colleges
should train students for intel-
ligence and character.
A proposal by Assistant Secre-
tary of Commerce Chester H.
McCall, that in 1935 a group of
200 to 500 politically ambitious
college juniors spend the first
three months of each year in
Washington studying govern-
ment at first hand, was approved
by the federation.
Senator Elmer Thomas of Ok-
lahoma, addressed the group on
the monetary system of the Uni-
ted States. He said in his talk,
"Our value of the dollar will be
determined when England and
other countries go on the gold
standard
Hon. Henry T. Raincy, Speaker
of the House made a broadcasted
address to the delegates at the
convention. He said that stu-
dents must face the future with
courage and insight.
Federal Commissioner of Edu-
cation Zook greeted them with
this pronouncement: "My com-
plaint about college students is
that they are too darned docile.
They are too easily bossed. They
don't create enough problems for
the college and university ad-
ministration
As a part of the social pro-
gram, the federation visited the
White House to attend a recep-
tion given by Mrs. Roosevelt.

"New Improvements in Avia-

cussion at a meeting of the
Science Club last night.
Margaret Lee, Chairman of the
I't'i'gram committee, presided.
Jean Tate gave a talk on "Im-
provements in Comfort in Air
Transportation She mentioned
the tilted seats, individual read-
ing lights, and ventilation. One
remarkable improvement has
been the installation of sound
walls so that sounds of the plane
cannot be heard, and conversa-
tion can be more easily carried
on.
"The Speed of Air Transporta-
tion" was discussed by Dan
Wright He gave figures show-
ing the records airplanes have
made. He said that it has been
proposed to build planes with
such highly developed powers
that it will take only a short
time to fly from Europe to U. S.
Clyde Morton talked on "Im-
provements that have Made Fly-
ing Safer She told about sev-
eral inventions that are being
improved upon so that aviation
is safer if an accident occurs.
She also discussed the way
aviation has been made safe

Dr. G. R. Combs of the Meth-
odist Church, in his initial ap-
pearance at the college vesper
service Sunday evening, Janu-
ary 7, based his talk on a little
unknown verse from the book of
Proverbs, "The path of the up-
right avoids misfortune. He safe-
guards life who watches when he
goes From it he drew a most
worthwhile analogy between the
highway of Life and the roads
on earth. A guide-post on both
is "Keep to the right and is
perhaps, the most important
Another sign is "Help make the
road safe; be courteous How
important that last word is. Dr.
Combs pointed out, for many
are the marvelous things which
spring from a little seed of kind-
liness. Both of these signs are
found on life's road as well, as
on earth's roads, but a third
need never be applied to the
King's Highway. It's "Detour;
road closed for repairs Al-
though for two thousand years
that road through Jesus, who
said, "I am the way has been
bearing far heavier traffic than
one earthly road, it has never
been "closed for repairs There
has never been need for detour -
ing from it.
Thelma Peele To

Former Vice-President Is To
Fill Vacancy Left By
Ellen Baker.
Thelma Peele will be presi-
dent of the Junior Class for the
remainder of this year. This was
decided at a meeting of the class
last week. She was formerly
V ice-President. Ellen Baker,
who was President during the
Fall Term, did not return to
school after Christmas. She has
accepted a position to fill a va-
cancy in the third grade in the
Reidsville school.
Mary Ella Bunn was elected
Vice-President.
It was decided that a banquet
would be given this year, as in
former years, for the Senior
Class. A discussion of the class
dues was held, and it was decid-
ed that they would be $1.50.

Brer Rabbit, Brer Wolf, Brer
Fox and other Uncle Remus
characters will live anew, when
they are presented by Tony
Sarg's Marionettes, in the Cam-
pus Building, January 29.
Tony Sarg's marionettes have
appeared here twice before.
They were here in January,
1928, and presented "Alii Baba
and the Forty Thieves" at the
evening performance, and
"Young America Reads at the
matinee. They were here again
in 1930 and presented "Bremen's
Band" and "Rip Van Winkle
This year they will give a play
j made up of material from "Un-
cle Remus, His songs and Say-
ings "Uncle Remus and His
Friends and- "Nights with Un-
cle Remus This dramatization
was especially adapted for Tony
Sarg's Company. The characters
to be presented are Rufus, Ras-
tus, Uncle Remus, the Little Boy,
Judge Bear, Brer Rabbit, Brer
Fox, Miss Buzzard, Mrs. Rabbit,
Peter Rabbit, Mr. Tarry Pin, Mr.
Coon, Mr. Possum. The drama
is in three acts and the scenes
are varied. Uncle Remus and his
stories should be particularly
pleasing to a Southern audience,
and particularly to children who
are fond of Uncle Remus lore.
Besides the Uncle Remus dra-
ma there are six additional nov-
elty features. These are March
of the Wooden Dogs, the Old
Quartet, The Colonial Trio, Bal-
let Fantartique, The Big Fight,
and High Brow Concert.
Mr. Sarg chooses his puppe-
teers very carefully, taking into
consideration not only good
singing voices, and former dra-
matic experience, but also the
hands of the applicant. Hands
must be firm, strong, and flexi-

Entertainment Com mitt ee
Gets Large Portion
Of Fund.
Seniors To Present
Play On Feb. 1516
The Board of Education of the
college acted favorably on the
request, which was presented to
them from the students, that the
student activity fee be raised
from three dollars to five dollars
a quarter.
The higher fee will add ap-
proximately $3000 to the amount
available for the budget. This
estimate is based on the number
of fees paid during the school
year 193233 and the fall of
1933.
Guided by a study of the ex-
penditures of the classes and
literary societies for last year,
the Budget Committee has ap-
propriated certain amounts to all
of these organizations.
Half of the amount has been
set aside for entertainments. The
total amount spent for entertain-
ments this year, however, will
still be less than last year.
The smaller fee for last quar-
ter reduced the total fund for
the year by about $1600. This
makes it necessary for every or-
ganization to cut expenses to the
minimum.
A one hundred per cent pay-
ment of fees would do much to
off-set this cut. Prompt pay-
ment by the students guarantees
the prompt payment of appro-
priations by the Budget Office.

Several Teachers
In City Schools
Graduate Here
Ten of the teachers in the
Greenville City Schools are grad-
uates of East Carolina Teachers
College. Employed in the col-
lege training school are Miss
Anne L. Redwine, first grade;
Miss Christine Johnson, second
grade, and Mrs. J. L. Savage, the
third. In the City High School
Miss Mary Shelton McArthur is
English teacher. The West
Greenville School faculty, Miss

ond have graduated from the col-
lege. In the Third street school
Mrs. E. T. Robeson teaches the
first grade, Miss Dixie Taylor
the fourth, Mrs. A. B. Corey the
fifth and Miss Estelle Greene,
the seventh.
All of the above teachers have,
at some time or another grad-
uated from the college and some
have come back from time to
time to take additional work in
their field.
The Senior Class will present
its annual three act play on the
nights of February 15-16. The
play to be given has not been
selected. A committee composed
of Aleen Hunt, chairman, Eliza-
beth Denny and Clara Vann
Freeman are to be in charge of
the play.
The class also has elected
the historian, prophets, and tes-
tators. Elizabeth Denny will be
the hostorian. The Prophecy
will be written by Ruth Parker,
Clara Vann Freeman, and Emma
Lee Davis. Testators will be Re-
becca Curtis and Lula Mae Bar-
ker.
The Senior class has elected
the superlatives for the senior
class for the annual. These will
be; Most Individual, Alice Whar-
ton; Most Attractive, Helen Bur-
nette; Friendliest, Ruth Parker;
Best Conversationalist, Clara
Van Freeman; Most popular,
Myrtie Gray Hodges; Best all-
round, Hattie Lee Humphrey;

For the next three weeks the

The student body will be glad
to know that an additional allot-
ment of $1700 has been obtained
through CWA for use in rework-
ing the old tennis courts and
building new ones. The menag-
erie on back campus is being
moved, probably down near the
barns, and the court will be ex-
tended to cover its former site.
Plans are to give the college 7
complete courts. By the addi-
tion of 100 ft. to the bleachers
on the athletic field, the seating
capacity has been increased
about 70 per cent. The position
of the football field has been
changed from north-south to
run east and west in front of
the bleachers, this change being
much needed for convenience in
good visibility of the game. The
fence around the field, 1420 feet
long, has been completed, and
approximately 3000 cuttings of
Armour-river privett has been
placed around the fence to form
a hedge.
The bleachers are to be paint-
ed before the project is complet-
ed.
There is an allotment for
painting 5 buildings, which will
include the PresidentVhome and
the faculty houses.
There will be a new sidewalk
down the south side of the drive
below Wilson hall, which is be-
ing changed to meet the back
campus drive so that they culmi-
nate into one at the West Cam-
pus entrance. The Beaman Me-
morial columns now placed be-
fore the Austin entrance, are to
be moved and made a part of the
west gateway.

There are four subjects offer-
ed in the Nursery School Course.
They are as follows: Child Devel-
opment, Nursery School Proce-
dures, Food planning and Menus

second week of the course, Jan-
uary 15-19, a great deal of time
will be devoted to observation
and conferences concerning such
topics as the following: plant,
materials, and equipment; chil-
dren's activities indoors and out;
eating and sleeping: toileting,
dressing and undressing: periods
of literature, music and science;
activities with such materials as
clay, paints, said, and crayons.

Although it may seem rather early in
the year to be talking about the elections
for next year, it is essential that we begin
thinking of them.
The offices to be filled at the spring
elections should be held by girls who are
capable, trust-worthy, broad-minded, and in
many instances, girls with experience in the
particular line for which they are running.
To nominate girls for an office because
they are cute or because they are your
friends show exactly how little your minds
really are. We do not stop when we nomi-
nate a person if she is willing to sacrifice
many hours for that work�and often with-
out any credit for doing it. Consequently,
we find the standard of our offices
lowered. The girl will want the honor�but
not the work.
Before the nominations this spring,
go over the qualifications of every girl who
is eligible for any office. Talk with people
who have worked with her�decide who will
give her best unsparingly, and elect that
girl.

In the appointing of the staff of the

that the accident has happened too fre-
quently. Precaution should be taken in the
ft lure that such a situation will not arise.
KEEP TO THE RIGHT
Keep to the right signifies a great deal
on the highway of life. Dr. Combs in his
talk at the Y. W. C. A. service emphasized
that thought. The "Keep to the Right" signs
may be seen on the campus in many places.
Do we follow the excellent advice? We can
keep to the right in class. Giving and re-
ceiving help on tests show that the axle has
been bent, and we are severing a little away
from the right side of life. Borrowing things
without the owner's permission shows that
perhaps a rock is in the road, and to keep
to right is almost impossible. No, not im-
possible we can keep to the right, and in do-
ing so our life will be paved with happi-
ness.

to be teachers, but unless we can adjust our
ways to the ways of the college we are al-
ready handicapped in our chosen work.
A girl who smokes at home cannot
smoke here. She must adjust herself to the
rules of the college. A student must sign
up when leaving campus. This is only for
the purpose of helping the student. One
who continually walks off campus without
signing up has not yet understood the ne-
cessity of adjustment. A student must also
adjust herself to the privileges of her class.
One class may have a privilege that you de-
sire, but cannot have. Don't take it, but
try to adjust your college life to the privi-
leges you have.
With the changes going on about us. we
are going to have to make many adjust-
ments. If we start now, it will be easier
later on.

A LITTLE REPAIR NEEDED
A number of C. W. A. projects are be-
ing carried on about the campus. These are
all needed improvements; but there are
several improvements that cannot be seen
that needs to be attended to. Although no
serious accident has happened while stu-
dents were coming down the steps from the
first floor of Austin building to the base-
ment, the steps are in such a bad condition
that perhaps as one of the projects they
should be repaired. It has been said that a
stitch in time saves nine, and a little repair
work on these steps may save some one a
broken leg or a sprained ankle.
Another little project that could be
carried through is to put a light at the front
hall steps in West Jarvis. On the brightest
days the stairs are always dark, and one has
to grope his way down for fear of falling.
These little changes will not cost much,
and will help a great deal.

SITTING ON NEW GATEWAYS
The new civilization that we are enter-
ing into is going to call for promptness on
the part of the individual. Everything that
is efficient starts and stops on time. The
radio, transportation, every business is orga-
nized on a schedule. Our life is a business,
and to be the right kind of business it too
must be organized on a schedule. Dr. Wright
a few weeks ago in Chapel said that if one
wants to make the most possible out of his
life he will have to follow a schedule. He
gave as an illustration the life of Gamiel
Dr. Wright asked the students not to sit
on the new gateways that have been built
on the campus. After hearing him talk,
they realized that it did not make a good
impression for people to see them sitting
there.
On the other hand, the gateway seem-
ed to be the solution of the problem that has
been confronting those students who can
not walk on Fifth street on Sunday. They
had found a place to sit down. After being
in her room for 2 hours, naturally one would
want to go out on the campus. What is
there to do after one gets there? It is tire-
some to spend all of the time walking, but
there are only a few benched to accommodate
the large number of students. A few more
benches placed on the campus will help the
situation a great deal.

Interest in basket ball has
readied a high peak since the
holiday, because of the try-outs
for the intercollegiate team
which will clash with the teams
from other schools in the near
future.
Dr. A. D. Frank, coach, relect-
ed out of the some forty girls
who reported for practice the
lust two weeks the following
who will make up the squad:
Forwards: Mary Ella Bunn,
Louise Register, Margaret Ful-
ton. Florence Sinclair, Doris
Bragg, Louise Corbett, Anne As-
kew, Elizabeth Keith, Edna Dar-
den.
Guards: Elizabeth Overton.
Louise Briley, May Hearne, Vick
Mozingo, Will Hidgon Margaret
Martin and Gladys Gaston.
With the above girls it is Dr.
Frank's plan to develop some
first class players who will play
a good winning game.
Two games have been schedul-
ed with Chowan. The first to be
played here February 14, and the
second there February 20. It is
hoped that a game can be sche-
duled for the last of January
with either Louisburg, Wingate,
or with the Teachers College of
Fannville. Virginia.
Practices are held every Mon-
day. Wednesday and Friday
nights and Tuesday, Thursday
.Kid Saturday afternoons. Some
real work is being done. All
persons other than members of
the squad are asked to stay away
from the campus building during
practice periods.
Suits have been ordered for
the squad.
Since the last issue of the Teco
Echo, more games have been ad-
ded to the basketball schedule
for the boys for this year. The
schedule to follow is, however,
not fully completed.

On the opening day of the
school two representatives of the
State Department of Education
visited there in their round of
inspection of colleges which are
offering the Nursery School
courses. Miss Hat tie Parrott and
Miss Alice Woodruff were the
visitors, and they offered their
assistance in the organization of
the school.
A special instructor was sent
from headquarters, Washington,
D. C. She will help in the Nur-
sery School course. The number
taking the course is so large that
officials feel that it is necessary
for an additional instructor.
There is now an added attrac-
tion for college at the Campus
Building.
We, the undersigned, do here
by make the following resolu-
tions for the year 1934.
Dr. Frank: I shall pop no quiz-
zes to my history classes.
Miss Wilson: When I see a
funny looking girl come in my
class. I will endeavor to keep
silent.
Mr. Deal: I will cut out the
bad habit of chewing a cigar.
Dr. Meadows: 1 shall refrain
from giggling in my classes and
I shall not use a single illustra-
tion this year.
Mr. Flanagan: 1 shall give
many pop tests this year.
Miss Green: 1 shall require my
students to have but one theme
each time they come to class.
Miss Cassidy: I shall not use
my hands so much in talking.
Miss Turner: 1 shall not ob-
serve practice teachers this year
at the High School.
Miss Morton: 1 shall let all
freshmen go to the show at
night.
Mr. Henderson: I shall not
make my classes fix a register.
President Wright, in his first
chapel talk for the winter term,
brought out the significance of
the fact that the first day of the
new year in college fell on the
same day as the first day of this
session of Congress. This is the
first time in the history of the
nation that Congress has con-
vened in January. He comment-
ed on the importance of the day
in the history of the world, the
carrying on of a great experi-
ment. He drew a parallel be-
tween the college students stand-
ing at the threshold of a new
year, with plans, ambitions and
aspirations for a whole life
ahead, and the people of the na-
tion standing at the threshold of
a new day, neither knowing
what the result will be, but both
with hope, and faith, and trust
in the outcome.
The college, he said, can do
nothing for them except give
them the opportunity to help
themselves and keep a record of
The old is past.
The old year has seen its last.
But memories of '33,

In direct contrast with, Friday
night's scoring festival in which
High Point took a 63-35 win,
the Panthers and E. C. T. C . put
on a low-so ring affair Saturday
night with the visiting quinl get-
ting a 25-20 verdict to maki i1
two in a row over the Teachers.
Culler, Panther forward who
made 26 points Saturday night,
was ejected for disputing the
referee's decision in the first half
after having made five points.
The Teachers made their
points equally from action, and
the free-throw line, while the
Panthers got one more on foul
shots than they did on the field
goals.
Bostic led the Teacher's scor-
ing and Culler and Shore headed
the Panthers.

ANNUAL BEEN TAKEN
A new year's resolution which
should have been made many
years ago, but if it wasn't it will
be an ideal one to make now, is
to think before you act. Weigh
the consequences of your act; if
the weight is too much to the
wrong side�but more on the
other side. Try to have a well-
balanced life. To do so we must
always think before we act.
The final pictures for the an-
nual have been taken. Dunbar
and Daniel's studio in Raleigh
had the contract. Their repre-
sentative was on the campus last
week to take the group pictures
and the superlatives.
The Tecoan is expected to be
off the press and ready for dis-
tribution sometime in May. The
printing is to be done by the
Edwards and Broughton Print-
ing Company in Raleigh. -
(IP)�Old "grads" and stu-
dents alike saw their hopes of
winning teams blasted when
players were jerked because of
classroom failure.
Fraternities long ago attempt-
ed to ease the way of the grid-
iron and cage men who brought
honor to their Greek letters.
Sometimes an athlete would ride
well until examination, only to
be jerked at a crucial moment.
So, when Dr. Albert K. Heckel,
dean of men, announced a sure-
fire scheme to smoothe the rough
scholastic corners of gridiron
men, he was accorded a ready re-
sponse.
The new set-up provides that
athletes will meet regularly with
faculty members, who will tutor
and advise and send their wards
through academic paces with the
assurance that they'll make the
necessary grades.
There are a number of famous
sayings, but none so famous as
some heard on the campus. Do
you know whose favorite ex-
pressions these are?
"When 1 was in the World
War�"
"I'd like to give this little il-
lustration�"
"Any quastions?"
"If you please
"As it were"
"I'd rawther not"
"I'm seeking information"
"I'm sorry, it just isn't done"
"Now, dearie, don't you know
you're wrong?"
"Good-morning, good-morning,
your room looks so nice"
"Come down to see me at
12:30"
"Come up to see me sometime"

ATHLETIC LETTERS?
Whether or not the football,
basketball and baseball teams
should get any recognition in the
form of sweaters or letters is one
of the most widely-discussed
questions on the campus now.
Since the advent of these
sports, several years ago nothing
has been given the players in
recognition of their work.
The Woman's Athletic Associa-
tion has given College Mono-
grams for a number of points
made during the year. This will
be changed this year, and wheth-
er the boys will be included in
the plan is not known.

What Other
People Say
ble to receive a second glance
from Mr. Sarg, when he is select-
ing a person who hopes to be-
come a puppeteer. To gain ease
and accuracy in manipulating
the puppets, calls for long and
tedious practice. Some of these
puppets have as many as forty
strings, weigh as many pounds
and are very complicated, while
others are very light in weight.
and are controlled by a single
string
The dexerity and ingenuity
revealed in the combination of
motion and dialogue is said to
be amazing. This and the sheer
simplicity of the stage settings
combine to make a picture that
lacks nothing in diverting and
convincing qualities.
The marionettes are a veri-
table triumph of theatrical allu-
sion. They seem as large as hu-
man beings when seen on the
miniature stage. The work of
the puppets seems marvelous but
the real work is of course done
by the puppeteers who work
from the bridge above the small
stage.
Mr. Sarg draws the designs for
the puppets. They often require
weeks of work in modeling the
heads and faces, and then every
puppet must be carefully exam-
ined before each performance.
The puppets require daily atten-j
tion and careful packing and
handling. The strings must not
be allowed to become knotted, or
the hinges rusty. Then too,
whereas in a company of human
actors, one person can play many
parts, a marionette is specially
designed, constructed and cos-
tumed for each part The per-
