FOR A BETTER YEAR
THE TECO ECHO

ment by hanging him in effigy. The effigy
was a grotesque figure suspended from the
campus flagpole with placards attached
reading "James Munroe Smith" and "Jimmy,
the Stooge A heavy coating of grease on
the flagpole made it impossible for any one
to climb up the pole to remove the figure
without a dangerous ladder climb.
The issue of the student newspaper that
caused so much trouble contained an article
that condemned the actions of Huey. The
president of the University immediately de-
clared that nothing should appear in the
columns ot the paper that was derogatory to
the Kingfish. The staff signed a petition
condemning the action of the University
authorities and were immediately suspend-
ed for "gross disrespect The staff of the
paper were not guilty of gross disrespect.
They had been deprived of the freedom of
the press, a right that is theirs.
Not satisfied with this interference he
turned his attention to the athletic division
of the university. This resulted in the re-
signation of "Biff" Jones, the capable coach.
Such acts though must be termed as a
lack of political sagacity and will result in
a quicker removal of the national post from
power. His actions at present are seriously
local but should they continue they would
become a matter of grave international im-
portance. With Adolf Hitler, Benito Mus-
solini and Huey Long what a trio could be
formed; Three dictators! ! !
(Eollcaiaic Biocst
ssoctatrd ?oUgiatf fcrw?
At this season of the year it is fitting
that mention be made of the fact that it is
an opportune time for some change in the
life of the average college student. There
probably never lias been a time in your
lives that someone has not encouraged you
to make some worth while New Year's reso-
lution and not only make them but keep
them. Perhaps it is felt by now that al such
things are childish or high schoolish and are
no longer something for a college student to
be interested in. As a result we decide that
we can get by as easily this term as we did
last and we will really have a better time if
we don't study. Maybe that is true but in
all probability when the grade books come
m some of the grades will be fives. The
next term we carry less work. We are sim-
ply wasting our time and the money of
those who are sending us to school. When
we stop to think about it we realize how fu-
tile such a system is. If a little more time
were spent in the library, rather than uptown i
in all probability many of those flunks
would be avoided.
East Carolina Teachers College has al-
ways had as one of it's achievements for
students, that scholastic standard cannot be
maintained unless the students try to keep
their grades up. At the beginning of a new
quarter is a good time to begin with better
grades.
ABOUT THIS NEW SYSTEM
While the Roosevelt adminis-
tration is doing its best to boost
prices in general, the price of go-
ing to college in America is slid-
ing down the scale. Tuition
charges have dropped on an aver-
age of $62 in 125 colleges the U.
S. Office of Education shows.
? ? ? ?
Specialists in the office show
that the economical student in
liberal arts colleges spends from
$540 to $G30 a year, with state
universities soaking up less of
the money than the private
schools. Medium cost is incurred
m denominational schools. The
most expensive man's college m
the country is the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, where
the minimum is $1,080.

TO THE NEW STUDENTS
To the students who are enrolled here
for the first time this quarter we extend a
hearty welcome. We hope that you like
East Carolina Teachers College.
Whole hearted participation in some ex-
tra curricula activity that you particularly
like will add variety to your college class
work. Our late President Wright advised
this to the student body and such a good
piece of advice can be handed on to the stu-
dents enrolled here now. He further said
that such participation would do much to
develop your personality.
We do not know7 why you chose to at-
tend East Carolina Teachers College but we
believe that you made no error in the selec-
tion of a new Alma Mater.
HUEY, THE DICTATOR
East Carolina Teachers College has cer-
tainly effected a drastic change in her chap-
el exercises this year. To begin with the
old five day a week assembly period that
was held in the middle of the morning has
been done away with and in its place there
was instituted a new. more enjoyable and
more interesting system. Assembly is held! hours of arguing about resolu-
only twice a week and at the end of the!tinn-s a a peace meeting, went to
morning classes. This served to do away
with the interruption that the old assembly
had created. The chapel programs were in-
teresting and students made for a better at-
tendance.
There was quite a bit of comment on
what would happen if a student should cut.
One cut. two cuts or a comparatively small
number went apparently unnoticed in the
old system, but even then if a student over-
stepped their boundaries they were at least
called to the office and warned not to let it
happen again. Students have talked among
themselves as to what the administration
would do if they should cut now. The first
term there was little done. It was suggest-
ed that chapel cuts be handed over to the
Student Government Association and to let
them handle it the way that they saw best.
The Student Council did not act on this and
the question was given back to the adminis-
tration. Now, the students are no longer in
doubt as to what will happen if they cut
chapel once too often. And that often is a
small number too. Bulletin boards
all over the campus proclaim what will hap-
pen. On the front page of this week's Teco
Echo is found an article that concerns this
new drastic measure. Four cuts, unexcused,
mean a dismissal from school. We stop to
ask the question, as undoubtedly the admin-
istration asked themselves before this new
ruling was finally passed on, is this measure
justified? Is it right that such measures
should be taken? The administrative offices
must have felt that they are entirely justi-
fiable. That assembly attendance is of vital
importance to the student body.
We must admit that there is little rea-
son for unexcused absences, and certainly
not as many as four. A legitimate reason
will in all probability be granted as an ex-
cuse, but can these drastic measures be mod-
erated?

Huey Long has created a lot of disturb-
ance over Louisiana and over the entire
state for that matter. The national joker
"Hooey" Long, by armed force secures con-
trol of the election and his forces generally
triumph. A football star from his favorite
university, Louisiana State, impressed him
so Huey made the player a state senator.
Not satisfied with that he believed that his
dictatorship extended to the college press.
Nothing was to appear in the columns of
the college paper that was anti-Long in
character. A courageous editor wrote an ar-
ticle that condemned Huey's acts. He re-
signed because of Huey's censorship and was
dismissed from school.
Louisiana State's president, James Mun-
roe Smith, is afraid that unless he caters to
every slight whim of Huey's that he will
lose his job. As a result Long's slightest
wish is a command to him. The dictator of
Lousiana will accomplish what he sets out
to do. The students resented the weakness
of their president and showed their resent-

ANOTHER PLACE TO DANCE
There has not been as much crashing
parties this year as there was last. This
impolite custom seems to have prevailed on
East Carolina Teachers College campus for
the past few years. It is commendable that
a lot of it has been cut out.
The Campus Building is for everybody's
use, and the students enjoy going over there
every night to dance. On Saturday night is
even more enjoyable than week nights, for
then everybody usually dresses up a bit, the
music is good and there is a longer time to
dance. The only disadvantage offered here
is the fact that those students who are not
among the group who are entertaining or
are being entertained at the campus build-
ing really have no place of amusement. If
there was some other place where music
could be provided as well as a place to dance
then those classes could go there. As it is
there is no place for them to go.
News item: "Professor Mc-
Dougall told the delegates: T re-

The professor, being a Scottish
sage of learning, is not accus-
tomed to spending his Saturday

tradition that they are to play
ball every season, and they al-

of them said "You know the

His great work pioneering in
the field of teachers training be-
gat: when he came here. By
drawing the contrast between
beginnings that October day
nty-fivi years ago, and the
ege he left that April day in
1934. Dr. Graham gave some
idea of the greatness of the work
he did in building a great Class
A. Teachers College from a small
Teachers Training School. 'Bow
much is crowded into that quar-
ter of a century between 1999
md 1934! What hard work;
what failures; what dreams;
what frustrations! And yet glo-
rious fulfillment packed in that
quarter of a century in the life
of this college It is the opinion
of leading school men he said
that Dr. Wright knew more about
teacher training than any other
educational leader in this part of
the United States.
What his coming meant to the
civic life of the city, and to the
churches, not only his own but
that of every denomination and
what it meant to Eastern Caro-
lina could not be estimated. Dr.
Graham expressed the regret
that Dr. Wright did not live quite-
long enough to see his dream
come true for a port as an out-
New Ymk, Dec. 28.?(AP)? So
far as the National Rules Com-
mittee is concerned, collegiate
football will continue to sacri-
fice the spectacular for the safety
of the player.
Walter R. Okeson, chairman,
made that plain today in submit-
ting his report to the National
Collegiate Athletic Association.
While Okeson reflected the
committee's belief that radical
chai ges are not imperative, he
hinted some minor tinkering may
come out of the pressure, largely
from the outside, that the game
be made more colorful and spec-
tacular.
It is expected that any changes
will have to do with liberalizing
the lateral pass as an offensive
weapon.
Okeson said:
"The pressure increases each
year to give more weight to the
spectators satisfaction?if our
prime object is larger gate re-
ceipts then much of their advice
is good, but your committee is
still old-fashioned enough to feel
that the safety of the player

To back up this point, the
committee pointed to the excit-
ing games of the past season as
well as to sharp reduction in in-
juries.

report said, "that it is quite pos-
sible to keep the game open, in-

Dr. Graham summed up the
gradual reachingout of the influ-
ence of this great Educational
Statesman, calling attention to
the steps in his career as teacher
president of the National Asso-
ciation of Teachers' College, dele-
gate at large from this to the In-
ternational Education Associa-
tion and delegate from this to
the International Education As-
sociation.
In his final words these two
statements will stand out in the
minds of the audience "East
Carolina Teachers College stands
a monument to Robert Herring
Wright through which he will
live on for the youth and for the
commonwealth through all the
generations of youth that are to
come. He was not only a great
man as the world measures great-
ness, but he was also a good
man Dr. Meadows in his in-
troduction of Dr. Graham said,
"We have met for the purpose of
paving our respects to the one
whose lengthened shadow is this
wh.le not too great for mature
men of many years playing ex-
perience, are tar too heavy to
load on boys of college age
During the past season, Oke-
son said, the amended rules
brought:
An increase in scoring in ma-
jor games.
Punting at a higher level.
The committee is earnestly
studying the proposal to encour-
age use of the lateral pass, with
a view to determining its effect
on present rules and on the game
itself.
"The use of this weapon is
growing and raises several perti-
nent questions he continued.
"One is. shall an attempted lat-
eral which results in an acciden- j
tal forward, continue to be pena- j
lized by the loss of a down. Sec-
ond, shall the rule declaring the
ball dead if a runner is so held
that his forward progress is j
stopped, be modified to permit j
lateral and legal forward passing
up to the time the passer strikes
the ground after a tackle
Improved officiating also re-
sulted from the amended rules,
Okeson reported, pointing out
that the 1934 season was remark-
ably free from rules misinterpre-
tations.
The annual Junior-Freshman
party held Saturday night in the
campus building was considered
a big success. The program con-
sisted of dancing, bridge and sev-
eral features. Marion and Ruth
Woods of Vanceboro, of the col-
lege sang two selections. Caro-
line Hamrick entertained with
tap-dancing. Helen Phelps sang
three popular selections. "Stay
as Sweet as You Are "I Ain't
Got Nobody 'and "I Love You
Truly
The decoration scheme was a
winter wood at night. Pines
covered with snow, blue lights,
a snowman, and the winter moon
and stars added festivity.
Invited guests were Dr. and
Mrs. R. J. Slay, and Miss Kather-

Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Cummings.

State College authorities are
ready to re-employ the entire
athletic staff for the 1935-36
school year.
Announcement was made last
night that new contracts await-
ed all members of the sports
staff who are employed on a
yearly basis. This covers all
sports teachers except Hunk An-
derson, head football coach, who
is in the first year of a three-
year contract.
Reese, Kosky Undecided
Coupled with Dean J. W. Har-
relson's announcement that new
contracts awaited all members of!
the sports staff, was information
that all coaches except Ander-
son's two principal assistants?
Frank Reese, varsity backfield
coach, and S. Kosky, varsity end
coach?had indicated immediate
acceptance of the contracts.
Colonel Harrelson, dean of ad-
administration of State, made no
mention of salaries involved. His
announcement that all the coach-
es would be offered a further
tenure of duty followed two days
of meetings during which the
college's athletic council and fa-
culty council gave the coaching
subject its annual consideration.
The athletic council met Wednes-
day, and the faculty council met
yesterday afternoon.
Veterans Will Stay
Those who have indicated they
will accept the new one-year con-
tracts?State engages all coaeh.es
on a one-year basis except the

R. Sermon, athletic director,
trainer, and coach of varsity
basketball and track; Charles G.
"Chick" Doak, veteran baseball
coach and dean of State's sports
staff: Dr. Robert S. Warren, head
coach of all freshman sports:
Peele Johnson, boxing coach, and
J. B. "Shorty" Lawrence, assist-
ant freshman coach.
In addition to the regular mem-
bers of the athletic staff. State
annually engages part-time
coaches who are doing graduate
work. Don Wilson and Bill 'Red'
Epsey filled these posts in foot-
ball last fall, but they will con-
clude their school work in June.
Announcement of the 1035 stu-
dent sides probably will not be
forthcoming until shortly before
opening of the football season.

A rare copy of Adam Smith's
"Wealth of Nations" has been
presented to William and Mary
College by a wealthy New York-
er.
Louise Briley, one of the most
versatile basketball players ever
to attend East Carolina Teachers
College, has been elected captain
of the 1935 girls' basketball
team.
In high school, Briley played
for four seasons on the girls'
varsity, and in her senior year
captained an undefeated cham-
pionship team. During the years
Briley played on the Greenville
high school team, her expert
guarding, passing and intercept-
ing was noted throughout East-
ern Carolina. Last year she
played consistently for E. C. T.
C, and was an important factor
in establishing the perfect record
of the team.
Coach Frank's squad will make
its official debut Friday night
when it takes on the Rocky
Mount Y. W. C. A. athletes. The
Y. W. C. A. girls present a for-
midable foe, and may be expect-
ed to offer close competition in
an effort to register a win over
the undefeated E. C. T. C. team.
Thus far five games have been
scheduled with Rocky Mount Y.
W. C. A Wingate College, and
Appalachian State Teachers Col-
lege. Other contests have been
discussed and it is possible that
Coach Frank's players may play
the highly tutored Lenoir Rhyne
team. Indications are that this
year the E. C. T. C. team will
tackle the keenest competition
possible and regardless of wheth-
er they lose games or not, it is
certain that each engagement
will be a real exhibition.

The annual Christmas Symbo-
lic White Gift Service of the Y.
C A. of East Carolina Teach-
ers College was held Sunday
evening, December 16, 1934, in
the Ausim Auditorium. The
gifts which were presented to

spiritual virtues rather than ma-
terial gifts which were repre-
sented by gold, frankinscence and
myrrh m olden times.
The following persons from the
various organizations on the cam-
pus presented the gifts: Faculty,
Miss Kate Lewis; Student Gov-
ernment, Edith Marslender; Y.

letic Association, Annie Lee
Hawks: Teco Echo, Dorothy
Hooks: and Student Volunteers,
S. Elizabeth Smith.
This is one of the traditional
services of the Association and
almost the entire student body
was present.
Dr. G. R. Combs spoke to the
Y. W. C. A. Sunday, January 6,
using as his subject, "Capitaliz-
ing One's Disappointments
He stated that learning to pro-
fit by one's disappointments is
one of the most priceless posses-
sions one may attain. He gave
several illustrations from the life
of Paul showing how he received
a blessing through his sufferings
and discomforts. It is Dr. Comb's
opinion that now as in the time
of Paul, the greatest joys and
happiness come through disap-
pointment. Life, he said, would
be dull and monotousness if
there were no defeat; defeat
makes success sweeter.
He raised the question, "What
does one know who has never
sorrowed?" There is always a
way out, and each disappoint-
ment and sorrow leads to things
higher. The earlier one learns
this lesson, the richer, more
beautiful, and triumphant his
life will be.

ministrations in our colleges.
"I propose, first he said, "that
the student body through their
constituent society be granted the
right of collective bargaining
with the trustees of their college.
All plans affecting the welfare of
students, the endowments for
scholarships and housing condi-
tions, the expansion or contrac-
tion of college services, should
come before this body.
"I propose, second, that
through a student commission on
the course of study, undergrad-
uates should have the right of
free expression of opinion in all
requirements for degrees, as to
hours of study, number of
courses, standards of work. They
should have the right not only of
criticizing poor teaching but of
seeking redress when such teach-
ing interferes with their profit-
able use of time and money
Regarding student suspensions
and expulsions he said: "Too of-
ten in America teachers who
ought to be dismissed for negli-
gence in their own specialties
take compensation in arbitrary
disciplining of a student
The present system of college
administration, he declared,
which denies to student govern-
ment all authority except over
the most trivial aspects of stu-
dent life, is a "training in petty
tyranny
The New America, he held,
which is likely to be governed
far more than formerly "by bu-
reaus of government officials re-
cruited from the ranks of college
graduates needs the laboratory
of student self-government.
Dr. Robert L. Kelly, secretary
of the Association of American
Colleges, asked for similar stu-
dent-faculty-administration coop-
eration especially in matters in-
volving academic freedom. In
reference to student government
he said: "On behalf of the most
alert colleges of the country that
there is no student interest which
is rightly outside the province of
student government. In numer-
ous colleges students are partici-
pating cooperatively in the edu-
cational program, in committees
on building and grounds, and in
many other ways are attempting
to work out a general standard
of civilized life on the campus
His association, he said, favor-
ed also setting up in Washington
a permanent commission on
youth problems.
Mr. Edward A. Filene, promi-
nent Boston merchant, urged a
program of inclusive social plan-
ning as the only method to meet
the demands of the present eco-
nomic situation and the only me-
thod by which liberty could be
attained. "The superstitious
supposed he said, "that there
was as much wealth, at least in
America, after the Wall Street
crash as there was before, even
if there was not as much money
"There were in fact as many
things, but, because the people
who wanted those things couldn't
get them, those things had really
ceased to be wealth and even
those who possessed the things
were poor, not rich.
"But when the New Deal pro-
posed to correct this situation by
simple means of increasing the
buying power of the masses, all
the superstitions concerning mon-
ey and wealth bristled in revolt.
"People thought that money
was something to accumulate,
not to pay out; although if it
were not paid out, it most as-
suredly could not come in
Progress of plans for a Feder-
al Youth Service to aid in the
solution of the problems of 7
000,000 jobless young people be-
tween the ages of 16 and 25 was
described by Dr. Frederick J.
Kelly of the United States Office
of Education. This Service, ori-
ginally outlined to the Depart-
ment of the Interior by NSFA
President John A. Lang, has ac-
cording to Dr. Kelly, received
the support of officials in the
office of Education. He explain-
ed that "the recommended bud-
get provides for the employment
of sixteen specialists in guidance,
adjustment, education, leisure-
time and community organiza-
tion. They would establish a
central clearing house of infor-
mation on youth needs and pro-
grams and show communities
how to develop services in which
each youth-serving agency would
play its part with greatest effec-
tiveness and least interference
With a prophesy of gradual
arid steady recovery Henry I.
Harriman, president of the United
States Chamber of Commerce,
sounded the most optimistic note
of the Congress.
"Stressing economic security of
the individual as basic in any re-
covery program, he suggested a
seven point plan, including home
ownership, gradual steps toward
unemployment and disability in-
surance, legal safeguarding of
investments, revision of the NRA
and AAA toward a greater self-
government of business, coordi-
nation of all forms of transporta-
tion, and the readministering of
relief to become a stepping stone
to jobs
Dr. William Trufant Foster, di-
rector of the PoHak Foundation
for Economic Research stressed
the importance of student opin-
ion as represented by the Fed-
eration and urged an expanded
program. Student interest in
public affairs should be followed
by definite stands on public is-
sues, he said, an dthe liberal ten-
dency of such stands as have
been taken by the Federation
are most encouraging.
Resolutions adopted by tenth
NSFA National Congress were:
1. Be it resolved that the NSFA
endorse and support the efforts
of the U. S. Office of Education
to establish in the national gov-
ernment a Federal Youth Ser-
vice to coordinate governmental
activities in behalf of youth.
2. Be it resolved that NSFA
go on record and take definite
action opposing compulsory mili-
tary training in institutions of

dorse a bill amending Section 40

3. Be it resolved that we, the
members of the NSFA, believing
in the Constitution which pro-
vides for the freedom of thought,
the freedom of speech and the
freedom of the press, believe
that these rights are extended to
University and College admin-
istrations and students, that poli-
tical, economic, social, or would-
be patriotic groups or persons
should not attempt to suppress
or abridge these rights in either
administrative or student bodies,
that administrative and faculty
bodies of colleges should exercise
no control or influence over the
student's right to self-expression.
a. We condemn the policy of
the Hearst papers in promoting
the suppression of minority poli-
tical belief and activity in Amer-
ican educational institutions.
b. We further condemn the
Ives Bill and its 12 prototypes in
other states that compel teach-
ers to take an oath of allegiance
to the Constitution in order to
teach.
c. We condemn the action of
American Legion Post No. 1 of
Atlanta, Georgia, in bringing
pressure to bear against the es-
tablishment of a Chair of Peace

such chair of Miss Jeanette Raii-
kin on the ground of her affilia-
tion with the peace movement

dom, that the results of such in-
vestigation be disseminated
through the Student Mirror and
News Release.
4. Be it resolved that the good
character clause of the FERA
should not be used by local ad-
ministrations to discriminate
against people who express their
political philosophies and take
part in political activities
a. Whereas, FERA funds have
not been administered on the col-
lege campuses in the past year
without certain evils and 'buses.
be it resolved that the NSFA ask
the officials in charge of the ad-
ministration of those funds to
cooperate more closely with local
student groups in the selection
of projects.
b. Be it further resolved that
greater emphasis be placed on
educational projects, club work,
and work of a social significance.
and less attention be given to
more manual labor.

on record as indorsing extension
of FERA program for an addi-
tional year, with elimination in-
sofar as possible of above evils
and abuses.
5. Be it resolved that there be
established on each campus an
undergraduate committee to as-
sist the faculty and the adminis-
tration in drawing up the curri-
culum. Be it further, resolved

college should give this commit-
tee real power in this work.
6. Be it resolved that, m the
organization and' operation of

equitably distributed to labor.

we approve the inauguration of
the 30 hour week in American

cial insurance with contributions
from capital and labor in propor-

butions from the Government.

we approve the AAA (Agricul-
ture Adjustment Administration
as a temporary measure of relief.
10. Be it further resolved that
we oppose a taxing program in
the United States that includes
a sales tax. and that to take the
place of the income from a sales
tax, we propose a higher income
tax on the upper brackets.
11. Be it resolved that, where-
as the student union has proven
itself to be a valuable factor in
the social and recreational life
of the college student, the NSFA
go on record as endorsing the
work of the student union and
be it further resolved that NSFA
offer its fullest cooperation to
the Association of College Un-
ions.
