President Wright's idealism,
faith and vision are shown not
only in the talks he made in
chapel but in all of his public
speeches. For nearly twenty-
five years he conducted chapel
four days a week, talking on
citizenship, economic conditions,
or various passages from the
Bible. Always, he held before
tine student body the motto of
the college To Serve During
these years more than twenty
thousand students have come
and gone and have caught some-
thing of his dream of an edu-
cated citizenry, educational op-
portunities for every boy and
girl, his ideals of faith, service,
and love for one's fellowman.
In bis inaugural address al-
most twenty-five years ago he
said, -Every nation that has ever
been upon earth has stood for
sonu- ideal. Civilization has ad-
vanced by the maintenance,
clash and ultimate influence of
these ideals. The little stream
beginning on the mountain top
winds its way down the moun-
tain-side and is joined by other
.streams until it becomes a
mighty river, bearing upon its
j bosom a world's freight for
humanity; so with civilization,
beginning with the.dawn of God's
creation of man it has trickled
down the ages, jdined here and
there by a national ideal until to-
day we have the jnighty stream
of civilization beating down upon
its bosom all the nations of the
worM. The ideal! that America
has'contributed to jfe stream of
human civilization is political
freedom.

long as our present ideal domi-

national or state religion. So long
as the ideal that now rules lives,
we, as a nation, are secure and
will be until this ideal dies and
another takes its place as the cen-
tral thought in our life. If this
ever happens, and God forbid
that it should, then we will fol-
low the new ideal until it, in its
turn, is emptied into the great
stream of life

Honorable Arch T. Allen. State
Superintendent of Public In-
struction, has known Dr. Wright
for a number of years. Because
of his close friendship with our
former president he pays the fol-
lowing tribute to him:
Robert H. Wright
"It has been my pleasure to
know and admire President
Robert II. Wright ever since we
were students together at the
University of North Carolina.
Bob Wright as a student gave
promise of developing into the
kind of man that we all learned
to know so well. He was thor-
oughly reliable in all his rela-
tions with his fellow students.
No one ever questioned the
righteousness of his purpose. He
did not cater to popularity, but
seemed to be directed at all times
by the promptings of his con-
science. His meticulous care in
doing only such things as his
principles of right would ap-
prove, made him a leading char-
acter among ail of the students
of his day.
He believed fully in the accu-
rate workings of the processes of
his own mind. While he was
not quick to make up his opinion
about new questions, when he
had thoroughly examined all of piano
the facts and made up his mind
it resulted almost in a convic-
tion. After having given ex-
pression to the results of his de-
liberations, only additional evi-
dence would change his mind
and attitude on these points.
President Wright was patriotic.

ELECTS NEW OFFICERS
Due to many things that have
arisen since plans for com-
mencement was made, the
Science department will not ob-
serve Open House. However,
some quite remarkable work has
been done by the students which
will be on display any time Fri-
day, June 1, in the Science
Building.
The biology, chemistry, botany,
and physics classes will have
projects on display. The biology
will consist mostly of the collec-
tion of plants and animals. There
are aquariums, terrariums, and
vivariums thriving over in the
laboratory, all built by students
taking those courses.
The chemistry projects consist
mostly of posters showing the
properties and uses of chemical
elements and compounds. A col-
lection of minerals was very in-
teresting.
The outstanding botany pro-
ject is an aquarium made and
balanced by a student. One pu-
pil made a collection of plants

The rising Senior Class has

President. Three elections were
necessitated for this office, in
order to break a tie between the
two nominees, Eloise Camp and
Frances Watson. The other two
nominees were eliminated in the
first poll. Frances, as second
highest, will serve as Vice-Presi-
dent.
Thelma Peele, who was Presi-

will serve as
Gus Forbes, president of the
class, made a most appropriate
presentation speech, telling of
the decision of the class to prove
their interest in the cause by di-
viding their class fund so as to
share in this work. Dr. L. R
Meadows in his acceptance said
this was just another strong link
binding the class and the Green-
ville High School to the College.
He enumerated a number of
other links. The mothers of
several of the class are alumnae
of the College, many of their
teachers were trained by the
College, and many of them have
sisters and brothers in college

achievements, therefore, are dependent up-
on the present product. Thomas A. Edison
did not make his reputation?the value and
quality of his inventions established his
name so firmly in history that no future, no
matter how distant, will ignore it. The Ford
built Henry Ford's reputation; and so it is
with all such business.
And just as the products of the business
world build the great business organizations
so the graduate builds his college. All the
sacrifices and powers of the devoted leader-
ship of Dr. Wright, all the visions and ser-
vices of a dedicated faculty and officers of
administration, and all the confidence of the
people of North Carolina should be imper-
sonated in the graduates of East Carolina
Teachers College.
It would be well for every graduate to
pause before he graduates, and think how
greatly he is responsible for the future of
his Alma Mater. This College owes a great
deal to the school children of North Caro-
lina and he depends upon its graduates to
pay this debt by teaching in the public
schools of the state, and giving to the chil-
dren the training that is essential to them
in building character and in becoming good
citizens.
The wise graduate will remember that
while he is leaving the walls of the Col-
lege he is not leaving the part that makes
the real institution because he is taking
that with him. And when he meets the
challenge of his Alma Mater, he will ac-
cept it and do his part in building the fu-
ture of his College.

He believed in North Carolina.
He was willing to undertake any
enterprise that gave promise of
being helpful to the people of tin-
state. No personal sacrifice was
too great for him to make freely
in his effort to serve the State
in every relationship in which
he found himself.
It was a part of his faith that
public education had the power
gradually to raise the level of
civilization. He further believed
that the success of public educa-
tion was dependent upon the
training and attitude of the
teachers in these schools. His
life work, therefore, was the
training of teachers. He was
not satisfied merely with techni-
que, skills and information. He
thought there should be some-
thing more. Personal character
and the individual attitude to-
wards the work were character-
istics which he felt should domi-
nate the life of every teacher who
went out from his institution.
This faith of his and this effort
of his, and the power to trans- ,

SUPPORT THE LOAN FUND
BON VOYAGE
. i
The movement on foot to establish a
000 Robert H. Wright loan fund is a wor-
i ne. The thing that he was most inter-
? in was youth education, and in estab-
this loan fund the committee is at-
tempting to make a memorial to him in the
rm of something that was close to his
heart. Student organizations are asked to
cooperate in this movement to help those
students that are financially unable to stay
in school. Realizing that they are taking
part in a movement that will continue long
alter their graduation, and that they are
the last student body that was so fortunate
as to be under Dr. Wright's leadership, they
will undoubtedly give their best support to
so worthy a movement. Even though the
different campus organizations are contri-
buting from their appropriations, each stu-
dent should feel a personal responsibility
for the loan fund and to contribute as much
as he can. The $3,000.00 that has already
been raised should be but a beginning; a
comeraoration to this great leader.
WHY NOT SPRING CLASS ELECTIONS?
to
the
As the custom stands now, the only class
that elects officers in the Spring is the ris-
ing Senior Class. It seems as if it would be
better if all the six classes held their elec-
tions in the spring, since it would be a de-
cided advantage to the incoming officers. It
would give more time for the officers
make plans for class activities during
coming year. The class presidents are
surely among the major campus leaders, so
while the other elections are held in April
or- May, the classes should hold their elec-
tions at the same time.
The elections should be so organized
that all the officers of major organizations

THE CHALLENGE OF THE GRADUATE
The success of any big business depends
largely upon the products of the enterprise.
Commodities that pour forth from such an
organization build its reputation and the
reputation of its leaders. The
The school calendar serves as a re-
minder that it is time for the last issue of
this year's Teco Echo to go to press.
This year has been a successful one. We
are still far from the goal that we wish to
attain?but we have realized some decided
successes, for looking back where we start-
ed from we find that we are at least as far
from the starting as we are from the goal.
We have worked under handicaps. The
minimum of advertising, the lack of orga-
nization among the staff and the financial
drawbacks hava been the major ones. But
there are many things that we feel have
improved.
First of all, the club in which students
may get training in newspaper work has
functioned well. There has been a time in
the history of Teco Echo when a show of
hands in mass meeting proclaimed the edi-
tors of the publications. The newly elected
staff members must have felt as if they had
been thrown into a river and told to sink
or swim, for they had no training. It took
a great deal of kicking for some of the edi-
tors to survive. We do not claim the pres-
ent editors are experienced college journa-
lists, but we feel as if they are much bet-
ter prepared for the work than they would
have been had they not had that training.
We have an official staff room, situated
so that it is available to every member of
the staff; we have placed in it magazines,
pamphlets, handbooks and catalogues that
will be useful to the staff next year. We be-
long, to such press organizations as the
North Carolina Press Association, and the
Associated Collegiate Press.
We send delegates to the semi-annual
N. C. C. P. A. conventions, and one of our
students has been elected secretary of that
organization for next year.
We plan for a better paper next year
but it is necessary that we have cooperation.
Experience has taught us that as grad-
uates we should not bid farewell to our col-
lege newspaper. There is no other organiza-
tion or publication that needs cooperation
and assistance from the graduates more
than the Teco Echo does. The Alumnae
should support it. The Administration can
more easily reach the alumnae with an-
nouncements that concern them through the
college newspaper. The alumnae associa-
tion may keep a more accurate roll and effi-
cient record. Not only will these items bene-
fit the graduates but they will also keep in
close touch with the happenings of the col-
lege. The Alumnae are still a vital part of
the college?the present graduates are not
bidding it farewell, they are yet a part of it.
The ideal paper must contain campus
future!news, and express student opinion frankly
A tribute from Walter Patton,
another close friend who is pas-
tor of the Hay Street Methodist
Church in Fayetteville, shows
Dr. Wright's attitude as a
churchman. He says:
Bob' Wright was a person to
whom his pastor loved to min-
ister, and by whom his pastor
loved to be ministered unto. As
a church official, he was inspir-
ing, helpful, encouraging and
brotherly in carrying its burdens
or in planning a broader scope
of its work. He lived on the
positive side of the Church's
activities with a creative spirit
to suggest, to cooperate, to car-
ry more than his full share of
the tasks and having put his
hand to the plow, he never look-
ed back, but went to the end of
the row.
His sincere love for the truth
and for goodness, his deep de-
sire for abundant life for people
gave him a spirit of sympathetic
attention, and an awareness to
enhance the ministry of his
church. Companionable, broth-
erly, considerate, with a rare
sense of humor, his was a fine
soul that inspired friends and co-
workers to nobler endeavors and
higher achievements. Hundreds
live to testify to a deeper sym-
pathy for mankind, to a more
tolerant attitude toward their
fellowmen and for a greater pas-
sion for righteousness because
they learned of the Spirit of the
Master by the precept and the
example of their Bible Class
teacher 'Bob' Wright
Mr. A. B. Andrews, attorney
and counsellor at law in Raleigh
gives the following tribute to
him:
"The death of Robert H.
Wright is a severe loss to the
State, especally the cause of edu-
cation.
An acquaintance with him at
Chapel Hill over thirty years ago
when we were in different class-
es, ripened in later years into
a friendship that made to me,
like everyone else who intimate-
ly knew Bob Wright, for the
high regard and esteem for him
that was justly due from every-
one.
At college he stood out indi-
vidually as a student and an
athlete, yet playing on the Uni-
versity football team demon-
strated his ability to work with
others, and subordinate himself
and his personality when it
would advance the cause. His
four years on the campus of the
University of North Carolina
was typical of his life work in
the world, and his manner of
dealing with affairs and men.
The State is richer for his
having lived, and much the loser
by his untimely death
Mr. F. C. Harding, prominent
attorney, who first knew Dr.
Wright when he was a freshman
at the University of North Caro-
lina, says this of him:
One misty gray day in Novem-
ber, 1894, in the late afternoon,
I first met Robert H. Wright. At
that time he was a freshman at
Chapel Hill. He came to me
and requested that I assist him
lina. but
country.
There was a strong tie of
friendship between us. I knew
him well. 1 knew his personal
traits, which gave added strength
of character of his individualism.
He did not copy any man. He;
was content to be himself. He
had ideals, and they all led him
to one common end. the fulfill-
ment of his mission in lift?the
uplift of humanity. He gave to
the college the best he had in
mind and soul. He made it
what it is.
His business standards had in
them a note of sympathy for our
tumanity. He lifted the
level of human ideals and
achievements a little higher than
he found them
He was in heart and soul a
good Rotarian. He read from
the Book of Nature the handi-
work of God.
May I say of my friend. Rob-
ert H. Wright, what Longfellow
said of his friend of Harvard
University.

then was taken over the diamond

The lunch hour was then spent
at Atlantic Beach, where a de-

After lunch some went swim-

of the water.
About 2:00 the club left for a

John J. Mahoney, professor of

at Boston University.
Professor Mahoney's definition

people possess an understanding
of and are actuated by those mo-
tives which make for better liv-
ing together and for better man-
agement of our democracy
To accomplish this better so-
cial order, Professor Mahoney
holds, education must place less
importance on vocational train-
ing and education for the new
leisure" and spend more time
developing in students an intel-
ligent understanding of the na-
tion's political, social and econo-
mic life.
"Unless we progress toward
the better social order we will
have no need for the vocational
training and the education for

Iowa City, Ia(IP)Just be-
cause you don't understand the
Einstein theory is no proof that
you are not intelligent.
If you don't know what to do
when your automobile breaks
down on a lonely road, that is
no sign you are not intelligent.
If you make dumb remarks at
a party, you may still be intelli-
gent.
If you pick up a fumbled foot-
ball two yards from the oppon-
ent's goal line and run 98 yards
for a safety for the opposing
team, you still may not be lack-
ing in intelligence.
Evan if it takes you weeks to
learn how to do new things with
your arms or legs, like swim-
ming or hitting a golf ball or
dodging traffic you may be intel-
ligent.
But if you are deficient in all
these things, you had better re-
serve a place for yourself in a
home for the feeble-minded, be-
cause there isn't much hope for
you.
There has been a lot of loose
talk about intelligence, especially
about intelligence on and off the
college gridiron, in the opinion
of Dr. C. H. McCloy, professor
of anthropometry and physical
education at the University of
Iowa here.
In the course of scientific
studies of college athletes, Dr.
McCloy has arrived at the con-
clusion that there are at least
four types of intelligence, and
possibly five.
If you have only one of those
types of intelligence, people with
other types of intelligence are
likely to think you are dumb,
but you can laugh up your sleeve
because you know that by the
same reasoning they probably
are just as dumb. If anyone has
all four or five kinds of intelli-
gence, it is to be assumed he is
pretty much a superman, and
you should not be too envious.
The first kind, Mr. McCloy
said, is abstract intelligence, the
kind that makes it possible for
people to solve deep and abstract
problems. Einstein is probably
at the top of this list, but most
of your good college profs have
that kind also.
The second kind is concrete in-
telligence, which is the kind a
good mechanic, a good watch re-
pair man, or a good, all-around
handy man has. These two
forms of intelligence, Dr. Mc-
Cloy said, are often related, but
not necessarily so.
Third, there is social intelli-
gence, the kind that keeps you
from swearing in front of the
parson or telling smutty stories
when the dean of women is one
of the guests. In other words,
if you have this kind of intelli-
gence, you have tact.
Then there is what Dr. McCloy
calls athletic intelligence, and
more athletes than not have it.
The man with this kind of intel-
ligence may flunk every course
in college, or he may get a Phi
Beta Kappa key?he's intelligent
just the same.
The fifth form of intelligence,
Dr. McCloy calls motor educa-
bility, though he doesn't insist on
it. It is the ability to learn new
skills quickly. Some good ath-
letes have it, some good athletes
don't have it.
I know of a man who nearly
got thrown off the football team
the first two years he played
said Dr. McCloy, "but in his sen-
ior year he made the AU-Ameri-
can. That man had slow motor
educability. But once he got all
the important points of the game
drilled into his head, he was a
smarter football player than the
rest of them
Dr. McCloy has invented a
mathematical formula which,
when applied to a college fresh-
man, or anybody else, shows just
how good an athlete he can be if
he wants to be, and also what
kind of sport he will be best at.
It shows what his horse-power
is, what his motor educability is,
what size and maturity he has
reached, and how agile he is.
"I can apply this test to a
freshman class he said, "and
pick out every potential athlete
in the crowd, provided when he
takes the tests he really tries. If
the tests say he wiU be a good
athlete, he will be one, and I'll
bet on that

"Dr. R. II. Wright was a noted
educator, a splendid citizen, and
a valuable rotarian The Gov-
ernor's message was as follows:
His splendid service to the
State and to the institution that
he served so well made him an
invaluable servant of the people
and I am sure I express the re-
gret and bereavement of the en-
tire commonwealth
Lindsay Warren, of the U. S.
House of Representatives, says:
"The State loses a grsat citi-
zen and a noble man and his me-
mory will be treasured
From Josephus Daniels, the U.
S. Ambassador to Mexico, comes
tliis tribute, that he wrote to
Mrs. Wright:
"It is not only a loss to you
and to his family and friends,
but a severe blow to the college
which, in a large sense, is his
lengthened shadow, and to the
cause of the public education
which namely used his able and
courageous leadership
Wm. Louis Poteat, President
emeritus of Wake Forest Col-
lege says that:
"He was the type of public
servant North Carolina can ill
afford to lose
President Bruce R. Payne, of
Peabody College wired: "A great
educator and a noble man has
passed. We shall not see his like
again
President Thurman D. Kitchen,
of Wake Forest wired: "The
state and the whole cause of edu-
cation have suffered an irrepar-
able loss
President E. C. Brooks, of
State College wired: "He accom-
plished much for the state, and
the college will forever stand as
a monument to him
President Walter L. Lingle, of
Davidson College said: "North
Carolina has lost a citizen and
educator
President H. T. Hunter, of
Western State Teachers College,
Cullowhee. wired: "He has been
a courageous, dynamic educa-
tional leader
North Carolina and its educa-
tional progress suffered a severe
loss in the death of your distin-
guished husband and father. He
not only beonged to you but to
the state and nation
Many other colleges have sent
telegrams and letters of condo-
lence to the family of Dr. Wright
and to the student body of the
college. Among those colleges
were Oak Ridge Institute, where
Dr. Wright was prepared for col-
lege, and taught at one time,
Flora MacDonald, Davidson, Ash-
ville Normal, Campbell, Guil-
ford, Chowan, Louisburg, W. C.
of U. N. C, and some South
Carolina colleges.
The following excerpts from
letters and telegrams show that
leaders in the religious world
also highly valued him.
L. L. Gobbel, Executive Sec-
retary of Board of Christian
Education, Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, states that "His
fine appreciation of our program
and his fine support of it we
shall miss greatly, and more than
all, the fine spirit of the man
B. W. Spilman, Field Secretary
of Sunday School Board of
Southern Baptist Convention
wrote: "He loved God and hu-
manity. He gave himself with-
out reserve to his work. The
world is poorer and heaven is
richer because he has gone
W. A. Stanbury, Pastor of
West Market Street Methodist
Church, Greensboro, North Caro-
lina, says that: "The Methodist
Church in North Carolina also
suffers the loss of one of her
finest leaders, and here again it
is true that, though dead, his
life will go on speaking to the,
heart of the Church and of all
good people for unnumbered
years to come
H. Frederick Jones, former
minister of the Baptist Church
here says: "He was easily the
first citizen of your little city.
First in a great understanding of
the problems, and supreme need
of your community and great in
his effort to solve the problems
and meet the needs
People prominent in the poli-
tical world also miss him great-
ly.
Heriot Clarkson, Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court of
North Carolina says: "He stood
for all that was best in this com-
monwealth. His life was a bless-
ing and benediction
Chief Justice, W. P. Stacy
wired: "To those of us whom
your distinguished husband hon-
ored with his friendship the
news of his death comes as aa
shock, but we are comforted in
the thought that North Carolina
is a better state for his having
lived and labored in it
Old friends, whom he had
known in school and business
sent letters and telegrams.
George Stephens, friend and
classmate: "He will be greatly
missed, and I know of few men
in the State whose work and
worth have been more widely
valued. His successful leader-
ship in the educational forces of
the States made him an out-
standing man, and with all his
strength and sweetness of char-
acter, so well known to his
friends, make his passing to all
of us a deep personal loss.
John Wilbur Jenkins, who had
known him well since the early
days in Baltimore, wrote Mrs.
Wright this: "Your devoted and
distinguished husband who is re-
membered affectionately in
Maryland as well as North Caro-
lina not only for his notable ser-
vice, but for the spirit and per-
sonality which impressed all
with whom he came in contact,
that won acquaintances and as-
sociates, and made them life-long
friends
Many members of the alumnae
association expressed their deep
grief at his passing.
Mrs. C. C. Alexander says: "I
esteemed Dr. Wright for his
kindliness of spirit and his wor-
thy achievements. The profound
admiration as a father I have al-
ways felt for him
Edith Matthews Hooks: "I
think I loved Mr. Wright next
to my Daddy. (Her father was
L. L. Matthews who taught in
the first summer school). I
think he was one of the most
unselfish, sympathetic persons I
have ever known
Mrs. Geo. W. Bradshaw, who
was Mary Newby White, states:
"I am so glad that I was one of
the thousands who had personal
contact with one whose life
meant so mcuh to me. I am
our President and faculty mem-
mers better than those of later
years have been able to know
them
Pauline Smith, who is also N.
C. District Home Demonstration
agent, wrote the following to
President Wright during his ill-
ness: "I wonder if you realize
just what you have meant to our
Eastern section. You do not go
in the homes that I do. You do
not have an opportunity to see
the changes which have been
brought about by the graduates
from Teachers College
A student pays his tribute to
Dr. Wright, by "A conclusive
evidence of a man's sincerity is
that he gives himself for a prin-
ciple. Mundane gains are com-
paratively easy to give away,
but when a man gives his life
and practice daily for twenty-
five years, it is evident that the
truth, whatever it may be, has
taken possession of him. One of
many of President Wright's most
admirable characteristics, I
think, was his profound sincerity.
He was honest and straightfor-
ward in every act. Under his
guidance, students were inspired
by his noble character to higher
ideals. Always will the students
and graduates of E. C. T. C. be
indebted to our beloved Presi-
dent, Dr. Robert Herring Wright,
for his benevolent leadership
A faculty member says of him:
"One trait which always inspired
me with admiration was a cer-
tain phase of personal control.
He was blessed, or cursed, with
a temper not surpassed in the
most highly refined strips of
steel. To make such a form of
energy an ally of his rather than
an enemy was almost a life-long
struggle of his. I have witness-
ed some of these battles; I have
also witnessed some of his con-
quests. Only in such moments
was one privileged to know the
true mastery of the man. And
therein lay a trait of his person-
ality which a true evaluation can-
not ignore

SCIENCE CLUB HAS
A SUCCESSFUL
YEAR
(Continued from first page)
President L. E. Smith, of Elonlglad that I was in the third
College wired: "The State ofgraduating class. Then we knew
lift pump, telegraph set, electric
rotator, electric motor, phono-
graph and optical disc. Sound,
electricity, steam engines, water
power, and simple machines will
be illustrated.
The past year has been the
most outstanding year that the
Science Club of this college has
ever experienced and under the
leadership of Clyde Brown, this
year's president, the club has
made considerable progress. The
success of the club is largely at-
tributed to the interest and abil-
ity that Clyde Brown and the
faculty advisor, Miss Lorraine
Hunter, have exhibited. The un-
usually good programs, the coop-
eration among the members of
the club with the officers, and
the work of the officers have
made possible a very successful
year.
There has been a great deal
of interest taken in the pro-
grams of the club, for they have
been planned in such a way that
they have been interesting, enter-
taining, and educational to the
students interested in Science.
Such programs gave an insight
as to the value of Aviation, a
Century of Progress in Science,
Physiological effects of Movies
and Alcohol, reviews of such
books as "A Hundred Million
Guinea Pigs A part of each
monthly meeting was set aside
for a report on Current Science
given each time by Robert Sugg
Fleming.
The Club has not limited its
speakers to the campus, but
have secured speakers from oth-
er colleges or from town. Dr. K.
B. Pace, local physician, gave a
very interesting talk at one of
the meetings on "Modern Medi-
cine As a climax to the year's
programs, Dr. Charles W. Ed-
wards, from Duke University
gave a Liquid Air Demonstra
tion.
Dr. Edwards is nationally
known for his liquid air demon-
strations, and the club feels very
fortunate in having him here.
Another feature instigated this
year was a trip of scientific va-
lue which will be an annual
thing. The club this year visited
the Government Biological Lab-
oratory in Beaufort, Fort Macon
and Atlantic Beach.
The accomplishment that the
club members are most enthu-
siastic about is the fact that the
club is now a member of the
Student Science Clubs of Amer-
ica. This club is the second

But to Dr. Livingston Farrand.
president of Cornell University,
the present trend in economics
is just about as bewildering as it
is to you and me. At least he
says it is.
"Whv I am just as bewildered
about it all as the average
householder he told newspaper
men last week. "I try to follow
the trend of events closely, but
the picture changes so rapidly
that I find myself baffled. I
have to sit down and try to think
it all out
One thing surprises the Cor-
nell president?that there is no
more violence in the country.
"I believe this is due to the
great intelligence of the Ameri-
can people he said. "Before
they will attempt to tier or tear
things up they will do a great
deal of calm considering.
"One of the surprising things
about the current depression is
that the attendance at colleges
and universities has not dimin-
ished as would be expected. Par-
ents and students are making
great sacrifices to keep their
children and themselves in
school
Dr. Farrand believes the typi-
cal American college student is
becoming a bit more politically-
minded and is studying current
affairs with much more interest.
Education Must Be
Changed To Develop
Individual Says Cobb
Washington ?(IP)? The aver-
age man and woman of the fu-
ture will equal the ordinary
scientists of today in ability to
think clearly, in the opinion of
Stanwood Cobb, founder of the
Progressive Education Associa-
tion and director of the Chevy
Chase Country Day School here.
Before society realizes that
high intellectual standard, how-
ever. Cobb says, education must
be changed from "the standard-
ized mass production of today to
the development of the indivi-
dual child to the maximum of
his talents and abilities.
"At present Cobb says, "We
are giving the youth in our high
schools and colleges neither en-
thusiasms nor convictions. We
are not training them in habits
of intellectual initiative or judg-
ment. We are not, except in
some few departments of science,
heightening their creative pow-
ers
Cobb contends that the stand-
ardized schools cause students to
lose their innate enthusiasms
and become secretive and insin-
cere while their intellectual
earnestness and integrity van-
ishes by degrees.
Cobb frankly admires the will-
fulness of adolescent youth
which he says most educators
and parents deplore. He advises
educators to take advantage of
this willfulness to develop a
method of education which will
be "a fertile field for the aggres-
sive skeptical quality of youth

There is one silver lining that

Some members of the Teco

house party last week-end. I
went along too, and I'm telling
you, things sure did look dif-
ferent from what they do here

in the game last Tuesdav with
Atlantic Christian College. Be-
ihind the two-hit pitching of
jDunn, the Pirates batted out a
6-0 victory which was the first
f shut-out game of the season they
have played in.
The E. C T. C. boys gained an
early lead by crossing the plate
three times in the first inning.
Dunn, Kapelec, Barrett and
Easom featured at the bat for the
Pirates. One of Barrett's hits was
too hot for the defense to han-
dle and counted for a home run.
In two trips to bat Easom batted
a single and a triple.
Much of the game was played
in a downpour and was finally
"rained out" in the sixth inning
after Coach Frank's team had
accounted for a total of nine hits.
S. R. Lee, former Greenville
boy, starred in the field and at
bat for the Wilson team.

J. W. Crabtree, Secretary of the
National Education Association
In the crisis of the seventies, I
was amazed as a boy, at the sac-
rifices made by the pioneer
teacher of that day. Since then,
I have observed that whether in
time of famine or in time of
plenty, the teacher has lived, not
for self, but for the children and
the community. I have noticed
that the selfish man or woman
seldom remains long in the pro-
fession.
When the terrible days of the
World War came upon us, who
led in food conservation? Who
led in the sale of liberty bonds?
Who led in collecting food, cloth-
ing, and funds for the Red Cross?
Who kept the schools going,
whether funds were available or
not? And what of the teachers
of today? They are serving in a
worse crisis than ever before.
Their responsibility is greater.
Environment is more destructive
in its effect on children. The
teacher-load is almost doubled.
In spite of all this, the teacher
is again leading in welfare acti-
vities. There may be a delay in
pay?a month or six months?or
the pay may be cut off for the
year, yet the work of the school
goes on!
Who is it that removes gloom
from the lives of children who
come from homes filled with sor-
row and suffering because of the
depression? Who is it that in-
spires children with courage and
ambition? Who teaches them to
look forward to better days?
Who is it that is saving civiliza-
tion in these dark hours?
All honor, therefore, to the
teacher of 193334! Your cour-
age and your devotion stand out
4 s the safeguard of our demo-
cracy and as the hope of the
nation.
Presented with personal appre-
ciation.

This Argentine war pact is a
gift from the New World to the

Pirate Catcher Gets Total Of
Seventeen Hits With Per-
centage of 340; John Kape-
lec Is Runner-Up With Bat-
ting Percentage Of 308; Bill
Puckett And "Runt" Bostic
Are Next Heaviest Hitters;
All Are Stars In The Field.
Jimmy Johnson, hard playing
catcher for the Pirates, took" top
batting honors during the 1934
baseball season with a percentage
of 340. Johnson netted a total
of seventeen hits out of fifty
trips to the bat. Besides play-
ing outstanding ball behind the
plate, he led the batting attack
in several games.
John Kapelec was runner-up
with a batting percentage of 308.
Not only is Kapelec handy with
the bat, but he has made an en-
viable fielding record for the
season.
Bill Puckett, and Clifford Bos-
tic were the next heaviest hit-
ters with the percentages 275
and 260 respectively.
Paris ? (IP) students here
last week were told by Prof.
Auguste Piccard, famous stra-
tosphere baloonist, that man
might some day make a trip to
the moon on power generated by,
the rays of light generated by
the disintegration of a feu-
pounds of lead.
The Swiss professor asserted
that rocket shops would be im-
practical for interplanetary
journeys because they would
have to carry tons of explosives
for return trips.
"Matter dematerialized and
transformed into light rays of
tremendous energy might per-
mit trips between the planets
he said.
"A round-trip from the Earth
to Mercury would require the
dematerialization of 100 pounds
of lead
Because man traveling in
space would age at a much low-
er rate than man on earth, the
professor said, it is conceivable
that men might leave the earth
and return to it only a few years
older in physical age, but to
find the earth anywhere from
10.000 to 100,000 years older.

The observance of College Day
scheduled annually by the A. A,
U. W. was earned out this year
by a chapel hour program at the
high school on Friday. May 4.
In the brief time allotted each,
local representatives of various
North Carolina colleges spoke of
the advantages of their respec-
tive Alma Maters, and some of
the college songs were sung. Mrs.
W. D. Webb sang some Meredith
numbers, and six prospective
students of the Woman's College
sang during that college's part of
the program.
B. W. Moseley spoke for David-
son, Dr. G. R. Combs for Duke
University. Miss Mary Lynn Pip-
kin for East Carolina Teachers
College; Miss Eugenia Thomas
for Meredith; Murray House for
State College: Ralph Collins
for the University; Thurman
Kitchen for Wake Forest and
Mrs. Luther Herring for The Wo-
man's College.
The social feature which is a
part of the usual plan of the A.
A. U. W, for College Day was
omitted this year because of the
death of President Wright.
Miss Mary York, chairman of
the education committee of the
A. A. U. W presided over the
program, and Supt. J. H. Rose
made the introductory speech.
On May 17, at High Point, the
Pirates continued their "winning
streak" by defeating High Point
College 11-7 after a hard fought
contest. The Panthers out hit
East Carolina Teachers College
team 8-6. but their hits were
kept well scattered after the
first inning.
The High Point Panthers gain-
ed an early lead, and scored six
times during the first three in-
nings. However, the fourth was
a big inning for the E. C. T. C.
boys, who scored five runs be-
hind the hard hitting of Kape-
lec. Johnson, Easom, Barrett and
Puckett.
James was the starting pitcher
of the Pirates, but was relieved
by Theo Easom in the third in-
ning. For the remainder of the
game, Easom pitched good ball,
allowing only one hit.
Kapelec and Johnson, each
with a double and a single, led
the Pirate batting attack. Russel
did the heaviest hitting for the
Panthers, netting two doubles.

wautiful thou
eipal of the college preseniea a
long and interesting talk. In
September of 1909, she said, she
first came to Greenville. Ac-
eompanied by President Wright
she went to the college build-
ings up a muddy walk that is
now Fifth Street and stepping
across stones over a brook and
across a corn field. Six build-
ings comprised the campus, the
Old Dining Hall, the Old Infir-
mary, the Power House, the Ad-
ministration and on either side
of this the West and East Dor-
mitories (now known as Jarvis
ami Wilson).
During the first year, when the
efforts of President Wright and
Mrs. Beekwith were supplement-
ed by those of Misses Graham,
Davis, Lewis and Jenkins and
Messrs. Austin, Laughinghouse,
and Meadows, college life here
was somewhat primitive compar-
ed to that of to-day. No electri-
city in the buildings, made social
life and evening recreation for
the student body of ninety-three
boys and girls at a minimum.
Late in the first year, how-
ever, Mrs. Beekwith and Pattie
Dowell of the student body, a
former Meredith college student,
I organized the Y. W. C. A of the
college. Under it auspices meet-
ings for social work and religious
purposes were held. From this
small beginning, the live organi-
zation of 114 sprung.

The speaker of the Vespei

Miss Ruth Hillhouse, Presby-

Greenville. She asked that her
talk be prefaced by the repeti-
tion in unison of the twenty-
third Psalm, the subject of her
remarks.
The twenty-third Psalm, she
said, written by David, as a
young shepherd lad whiling
away time on the peaceful hill-
sides. We can know that ne was
young because of the predomi-

At the Friday Vesper Service
.( the Y. W. C. A. Miss Mary
Green' Frances Holland, a college stu-
dent, spoke most interestingly on
ipt comparison between a
ag stamp and human be-
. She drew the comparison
in several ways. First a stamp
has value, because a security
backs it. because the United
States government has placed its
seal on it, and because it is
bought with a price. We have
value because God's security is
behind us. because His seal is on
us, ard because He has bought us
with a price.
A stamp and a human being
iare further alike in that the
I stamp's purpose is to carry a
message, while our purpose is to
spread the word, our message.
As a stamp is accepted at its full
value, so God knows our face
value. Unless a stamp faces up-
ward, it cannot work. So we,
too, must face upward. And last-
ly, a stamp may be "licked" but
it still sticks. We should try to
follow this lesson gleaned from
the useful postage stamp.
an outgrowth of interest aroused
m their Freshman year. Miss
Catherine Cassidy, of the Science
Department, has been their ad-
viser. They followed directions
m publications of the Scientific
American, which is sponsoring a
club of amateur telescope-mak-
ers, but they showed great in-
genuity in adapting old materials
and keeping down the cost. Two
discs of glass and six grades of
coerundum was purchased, but
the eye-piece is from an old
microscope, and the mirror,
which serves to bend the rays
from the reflecting mirror, is a
piece of an old wind-shield sil-
vered on the back. A fifty-inch
wooden bar is mounted on a tri-
pod made of iron piping. The
entire cost was between $7.00
and $8.00.

world in all of its phases is mov-
ing forward through some form
of collectivism. Collectivism
gives us the maximum of free-
dom. We are at the dawn of the
greatest period of human free-
dom the world has ever known.
We have come to a realization
of human inter-dependence, and
the realization takes the form of
what I call collectivism?human
beings working together for the
human good.
If we are to have political free-
dom, if the civilization of to-
morrow is to be the highest type
ever known, what is needed?
Through long ages human beings
have realized that ignorance and
superstitition have been mill-
stones around the neck of pro-
gress. Intelligence has at last
asserted itself. We cannot car-
ry on in this new era unless we
educate all the people. Not in
America, alone, but all over the
world the beacon light of educa-
tion must shine. An enlightened
humanity will give us the most
advanced civilization the world
has ever known
Last November President
Wright said to the student body:
"Young people, I am sorry for
you in one wary, because the civi-
lization that we have worked
out pretty well has literally been
broken up, broken all to pieces,
and many of the standards that
we have held to are being dis-
carded. We are making some
mistakes. On the other hand, I
am not sorry for you, but con-
gratulate you, on being young
in this particular time in the his-
tory of the world, when all
standards of civilization are be-
ing questioned. Every standard
is being questioned and if it can-
not stand up and justify itself it
will, and should be, discarded.
You are truly in a critical period
in the history of the world. If
you will remember that state-
ment, if you live thirty years
longer you will realize its sig-
nificance. In this critical period
justice is one of the things we
should hold to, and character is
absolutely essential if we are go-
ing to go through this period suc-
cessfully. The man or woman
who will lie for himself or his
friends or against his enemies,
who does not ring true, is dan-
gerous to civilization. The per-
son who will deliberately do a
questionable deed is dangerous.
You, each individual, may order
your life in keeping with the
things that are worth while, that
will be worthwhile in this new
civilization when many of things
we have held to will pass and
new things take their place. "To
