McSwain gave a short talk on the j
Resources of Religion from an in-1
dividual self-discipline standpoint.)
"The problems of youth he said
"are more numerous and more per- j

"Students are daily making deei-j
sions he explained, "which will
determine their future lives, and are;
making them with comparatively un-
trained minds and without the ad-
vice of their elders. Therefore they
must work out their ideal with the
resources they have, the most valu-
able of which is prayer, which gives
one an inward self-discipline
Mr. Crawford followed his brief
message with the reading of a se-

"Songs bv Dayle, and "God Send

The second part of the program
was a brief talk by Mr. Stinnett
on the "Resources of Religion from

She cited Abraham, Luther, George
Washington and other great leaders

She gave Jesus as the greatest
Christian of all times, and told
something of His life from the time
of His boyhood, when He led the
i life of a normal lad of His age,

gifts to the World. "He had close

in Brazil as a missionary.
She first answered the question as
to the need of missionaries in Bra

An Enthusiastic Audience
Miss Courtney Sharpe, one of the
young leaders in the state and na-
tional campaign for peace, who was
brought to Greenville last week by
the Junior Woman's Club, brought
a most inspiring message to the col-
lege students January 22 on "Build-
ing for Peace
"All of us are dreamers and we
must take practical steps to accom-
plish our dreams was the opening
sentence of this most interesting
campaigner for peace. It is her
hope, or dream, that some day all
people, all nations, and all religions
may live together as one. That
dream, she said, was her reason for
being here.
Miss Sharpe believes that peace is
something worth working for and
that it is something the young peo-
ple of today can contiibute to.
Going back to her theme, "Build-
ing for Peace Miss Sharpe remind-
ed her hearers that one of the first
things one does in building any struc-
ture is to count the cost. She then
gave figures to show the cost of not
building for peace�the billion dol-
lars, for example, spent last year
in the United States for war.
She contrasted with that the small
amount�$500,000 � spent for all
the peace organizations, and declared
that peace can be won only by work-
ing for it and paying for it.
She would like to hope, she said,
that the next war will be less great
than previous wars, but because of
dreadful poisonous gases and bombs
that will likely be used in the next
war, she fears it will be infinitely
worse. She referred to one officers'
statement that there will be no front
lines and back lines, but instead,
war will be overhead, and everybody
will suffer.
Miss Sharpe spoke of her getting
into the work because she wanted to
do something for peace. She urged
the students interested in helping
in any way to write to the head-
quarters of the National Council
for Prevention of War, at 532 Sev-
enteenth Street, Washington, D. C.
This organization is glad to send
specific suggestions of things peo-
ple in every community can do.
Miss Sharpe concluded her talk
by telling the young people that the
future is theirs and they must claim
it for peace.
The speaker was introduced by
Miss Mildred P. Edwards, a student,
who is a member of the chapel com-
mittee.
The President Roosevelt birthday
ball, a national annual affair, will
be held in the Robert II. Wright
building here tomorrow night. Joe
Burke's Duke Ambassador will fur-
nish the music.
The ball will begin promptly at
9 o'clock and will be featured by
two twenty-minute floor shows given
by pupils of Miss Ramona Staples
and Miss Carolyn Hamric, former
Fast Carolina Teachers College stu-
dent.
The grand march is scheduled to
follow the lloor shows, with Chair-
man W. W. Lee leading, and all
dancers will be expected to take part.
The remainder of the evening will
lie spent dancing.
Seventy per cent of all funds
raised at the ball will be used in
treating local or county indigent
cripples.
A member of the general commit-
tee announced recently that a large
number of college students would be
present for the event due to the fact
that several of the colleges in the
state have just held mid-term ex-
aminations. Several hundred East
Carolina Teachers College students
are expected to be on hand as dancers
and spectators.

CRITICAL SERVICE
An enthusiastic audience was
thrilled and delighted with the violin
concert presented here on the night
of January 19, by the great artist,
Efrem Zimbalist, using his famous
violin, the "Lamoreouz" Stradiva-
rius The artist's perfect poise, his
calm, and particularly his freedom
from mannerisms, with nothing
overdone, presented a picture which
entirely captivated his audience.
Many'of those present who had
heard Zimbalist before left the audi-
torium with renewed admiration for
the great violinist
The entire program was well
planned, including compositions not
too technical to be appreciated by
everyone present, yet intricate
enowrh to interest the most discnmi-
nating musician
The first number,
"La Folis in which a beautiful
theme ran through several variations,
made a charming opening for the
program. The sonota for the violin,
consisting of rather modernistic har-
monies, perhaps appealed most to the
musicians. The "Scotch Fantasy by
Bruce, captivated the audience as a
whole. The melodies, hauntingly
familiar, just escaping identification,
made each one feel as if he under-
stood the musical message. Schu-
bert's two beautiful songs "The Wal-
nut Tree" and "Hark Hark, the
Lark were the favorites of many
in the audience. The technical pas-
sages of Paganini's "The Witches'
Dance which are so difficult for
most violinists, seemed simple when
played by Zimbalist.

of which were Schubert's, the deli-

HOLDS JANUARY MEETING
The Delta Omieron Sigma held
its regular monthly meeting Tues-
day night, January 12, 1937, with
41 members present.
After a hearty welcome extended
to the new members of the club by
the president, the revised constitu-
tion was read and adopted. A re-
port concerning the club trip to Wil-
liamsburg, Virginia, next spring wast
given. To make the trip more in-
teresting, Mrs. Bloxton, one of the
club advisers, gave a talk on the his-
tory of the city. She also acquaint-
ed the group with the chief points of
interest throughout the city.
The recreation committee then
took charge of the meeting and led a
vegetable-fruit contest. Following
the refreshments, Mable Worley en-
tertained the club at the piano.

A special committee from the
state legislature has been appointed
to come to East Carolina Teachers
College today to determine whether
or not they should recommend that
the General Assembly grant the re-
quest recently presented by President
Meadows for a men's dormitory.
President Meadows and A. D.
� Duncan, college treasurer, appeared
"Purpose Of Communism TO Give! before the joint committee on ap-
MaSSeS Better Chance j propriations from the General As-
sembly on January 21 and present'
ed a request for permanent improve-
ments and an increased maintenance
fund for the college for the next bi-
ennium. The only item in perma-
nent improvements asked for is a
dormitory for men, the urgent need
of which was explained by President
Meadows. The need for a greater
amount for maintenance was also
shown. An examination of the pro-
posed budget in the biennial report
from the board of trustees reveals
that many repairs, replacements,
and other items for the upkeep of
the plant are needed. There is also
a request for additional teachers, as
there has been a large increase in
the enrollment without a proportion-
ate increase in the teaching staff.
Among those on the committee to
which the request was presented were
the governor, the director of the
budget, and members appointed by
the State Council.
Students Petition
A petition for a men's dormitory
was also presented from the student
body of the college. This petition
was read at a mass essembly by the
president of the Men's Student Gov-
; i � i . ! i . � eminent Association, Thornwall Gib-
(children) to develop future mem- 0 . A T
son, on Saturday night, January 11.
and was unanimously approved.
The wording of the petition is as
follows:
bers of the party.
Almost yearly the party is purged
of all who have not shown themselves
zealous in the cause.
The contempt of the bolshevists
for all democratic procedures i

there exists a committee whose busi-
ness it is to proceed against members

his principles.
With the philosophy, the methods
of work, and the party organization
thus made clear, the group will dis-
cuss next week the Waring of the

(a) There is a growing demand
in this state for men teachers, and
for men in principalships and other
school administrative positions.
(b) Such teachers and adminis-

The announcement has been made
that Lowell Thomas, famous radio
news commentator and author, who
was tentatively scheduled last spring
by the entertainment committee of
East Carolina Teachers College to
appear here in February, will not
be able to fill his engagement. He
will be sent by his radio sponsors to
attend the coronation of King George
VI in England.
The committee is making efforts
to find a lecturer of equal note to
take his place this season. They are
hoping to be able to secure the
noted explorer of polar regions,
Richard Byrd.
Among those that had been sug-
gested for substitutes, were the great
explorers, Martin and Osa Johnson,
but Mr. Johnson, it will be remem-
bered, met a tragic death in a recent
Western airliner crash. Others sug-
gested were Cornelia Otis Skinner,
the renowned sketch actress who
appeared here last year, and Richard
Halliburton, the noted author of
travel and adventure books, who was
possibly the best-liked of all the lec-
turers who have ever appeared here.
Because the open dates for these
conflicted with other scheduled at-
tractions, it was impossible to con-
sider them.
Other coming attractions on the
entertainment program are John
Mulholland, world-renowned magi-
cian and wonder worker, who will
appear on February 11; the Wins-
low Dancers, on March 4; Frederic,
the marvelous boy pianist, on April
2; and Dr. Sigmund Spaeth, the

The first of the new semi-monthly
recitals of the new year was given
by the music department Wednesday
evening, January 20. The program
was made particularly interesting by
variety in the types of compositions
played.
A number of familiar old classics
were played. Among them were:
Liszt's "Etude in D flat by Mary
Evelyn Thompson; Chopin's "Min-
uet Waltz" played by Elizabeth Tol-
son; and three Bach numbers, Ga-
votte and Minuet, played by Rachel
Moore, and "Allegro played by
Pauline Nelson.
Others on the program and their
selections were: Christine New,
"Nocturne" by Ward; Annie Laurie

GATHERING MOMENTUM
Yes a dormitory for men is definitely a vital "next step" for Fast
Have you a face so long and
angular that you feel like a rein-
carnation of George Elliot! Or is
your face merely too thin! Or too,
too round tor beauty!
DJ not despair. There is no neces-
sity for you to appear moon-faced
juat because you were horn so. Or
pinched because your jawbone is
narrow. The artist has known for
an eternity that color and light and
shade will change the apparent
shape of any object. It is through
the clever "manipulation of these
elements that the artist makes ob-
jects painted on a flat surface ap-
pear three dimensional. It is by
utilizing highlights and shadow that
the architect achieves his grandest
and most inspiring effects.
You too can make use of these
thn-e elements to give your face
a more becoming shape. Here are
a few hints on how to do so.
The ideal face is heart shaped.
The somewhat pointed chin and wide
forehead and eyes make it appear
piquant and vivacious. If your
face is this shape, do your best to
emphasize your good fortune. Wear
v.air hair off your forehead and
away from your face. Rouge over
a large triangular area of your
cheeks and put it on most heavily
directly under the eyes and near the
nose. Emphasize the eyes with eye-
shadow and mascara, but do not
elongate the brows beyond the eyes.
To disguise a too round face and
make it appear a delicate oval, wear
your hair off your forehead, but over
;u-s to frame vuiir face and

To Mathematics Majors
Necessary To Work From Right
Postulates In Solving Personal
And World Problems
"Mathematics as a Mode of
Thought" whs the main topic of Miss
Wiliiams's talk at the regular meet-
ing of the Mathematics Club, on
Jai.uarv 12, She said that in solv-
ing either world problems or per-
sonal problems, it is necessary to
work from the right postulates.
.She osed material from Dr. Vic-
tor Reiser's recent book, "An Amer-
ican Doctor's Odysey to show that
the thinking done in -olving the prob-
lem of the black plague was identical
with that done in solving a geometrv
problem.
'�Mathematical thinking Miss
Williams ?aid. "likewise solves per-
sona! problems She told a story
of a young American who, while riv-
ing over the Arabian desert, dis-
covered that his plane was in danger
of being destroyed. He saved his
life by attacking the problem ana-
lytically.
In conclusion, she aid that from
the right postulates, through math-
ematical thinking, it is possible to
build for "every fine experience in

Washington, D. C�When Con-
gress assembled this week for its
tirst session, there arose to take his
oath of office a new member who
looked young enough to be a col-
lege senior rather than a Represent-
ative in the National Congress. As
a matter of fact, he is only slightly
older than many college seniors and,
perhaps, not as old as many stu-
dents who complete their under-
graduate work and go on to profes-
sional schools to prepare themselves
lor the practice of medicine or law.
The "Baby-Congressman is 27-
year-old Lyle H. Boren of Okla-
homa who defeated the incumbent
"Cowboy Congressman" Gassaway
and a field of eight other candidate's
to win his seat in the House.
We hear a lot about the need for
young people in politics; and here
is one. Boren finished his studies
at Oklahoma A. and M. in 1932
and now, less than four years later,
he's in Congress. He was doing
graduate work at the A. and M.
school after being graduated from
East Central Teachers' College at
Ada, Oklahoma in 1929.
The young Congressman taught
school for a while after finishing
college, worked for the government,
wrote "Who Is Who In Oklahoma"
and devoted himself to other liter-
ary work.
College students who eye the fu-
ture with hopes of political suc-
cess may watch Boron's career with
interest. It may be worthwhile to
compare the tactics of the baby
House member with that of the baby
Senator. Rush Holt of West Vir-

Rev. T. M. Grant, pastor of Jar-
vis Memorial Methodist Church,
and Mrs. Grant held open house for
the Methodist girls of ECTC on
Saturday afternoon, January 23.
The guests were greeted at the door
by Miss Zoe Anna Davis, director
of religious education at the Meth-
odist Church. As each guest arrived
her name card was pinned to her
for identification.
Mrs. Grant invited the guests
into the dining room where they
were served dainty sandwiches,
cookies, and mints, with Russian
tea. The dining table was covered
with a lace cloth, with a bowl of
lovely spring flowers, as a center
piece, and flanked on either side by
lighted candles.
The members of the Sunday
School Council who assisted in
serving were Misses Ruby Lee Pea-
cock, Viola Smith, Ruth Kiker,
Mary Alice Simmons, and Eleanor
Hardy.
During the course of the after-
noon, the guests participated in
games led by Miss Ruby Grant,
daughter of the pastor.
Between the hours of three and
five-thirty about sixty-five guests
called.

(d) East Carolina Teachers Col-
lege enrolls students from every sec-
tion of the state and sends its grad-
uates to every section.
(e) This college is co-educational
and has been so since its founding.
(f) This college now enrolls more
than one hundred men per quarter,
and these students find it difficult
to secure adequate quarters in pri-
vate homes.
(g) The number of men enrolled
would be increased if suitable dormi-
tory facilities were provided; their
comfort and convenience would be
greatly enhanced; and the quality"
of their college work would be im-
proved.
(h) Such a college dormitory for
men would be self-supporting and
the state would be called upon to
provide only the capital outlay.
We urge the careful and earnest
consideration of this matter by your
honorable body.
Respectfully submitted,

Holt was elected to the Senate
two years ago when he was 29 and
had to wait several months before
he could take his oath of office. Soon
thereafter he went on the warpath
against his colleague from West
Virginia, Senator Xeely, as well
as various other officials including
Relief Administrator Harry Hop-
kins and President Roosevelt. Last
fall he campaigned against the
nominees of his party although ho
was elected as a Democrat. His
tactics caused the Administration
to strip him of his patronage and
the Senators, in resentment against
his conduct, walk out of the cham-
ber when he rises to address them.
Senator Neely, reelected despite
the opposition of the baby Senator,
broke a long standing" tradition
when he walked up to take the oath
of office with Senator Robinson in-
stead of the colleague from his own
state. Afterward Senator Xeely
was quoted as saying that he would
not allow the youthful Holt to ac-
company him "to a dog fight
Holt's antics, however idealist-
ically inspired, tend to discredit
young people who aspire to high
office, but perhaps Boren's conduct
will be such as to regain for young
people the prestige in politics that
Senator Holt has lost.
Numerous young men have
brought credit to themselves and
their electorate despite their vouth.
Senator Richard B. Russell, Jr. of
Georgia is an example of this. Still
in his thirties, he has served as
speaker of his state house of repre-
sentatives, governor of Georgia, and
has just entered upon his fifth year
in the Senate, having been over-
whelmingly reelected to a full term
after serving four years of an un-
expired term.
College men and women who
aspire to public office may find a
number of inspirations in the pres-
ent Congress.
The Presbyterian girls were en-
tertained on Saturday evening,
January 16 with a "kid party The
girls came in groups, or families,
and were dressed tq represent the
different members of the family.
Mr. and Mrs. Grady were Grand-
father and Grandmother and they,
too, were dressed for the occasion.
After numerous "kid games" were
thoroughly enjoyed, refreshments,
consisting of hot chocolate and.
animal crackers, were served.

did not mean that the men were
barred from tho institution. Dav
students continued to come for sev-
eral years and were always welcome,
but the number grew less and less
until finally there were no boys at
all enrolled during the regular year
although they continued to come
during the summer. There have
been only two years when names of
men did not appear in the catalogue.
Men Were Active
Sections in the first catalogue
show that the men on the campus
were active in those first vears.
Men s organizations the first year
outnumbered those of the women
two to one. While the first organi-
zation formed was the YWCA, the
only other two that year were men's
organizations. Quoted from the
1910-11 catalogue is the following:
"The Jarvis Memorial Literary So-
ciety was organized by the young
men of the school to encourage pub-
lic speaking and debate. Its work
for the past year has been most sat-
isfactory Also quoted, under Ath-
letic Association, is this: "The
young men organized a baseball club
and played several games during the
year, making for the school a very
satisfactory record It seems now
hardly fair to have turned the boys
out if they had made such a good
start.
One lone boy, James Butler, had
the courage to enter and stay a whole
year, and he became a forerunner
of others to come later, the number
increasing from year to year, until
the 100 mark was reached. For this
year the enrollment of men is 116.
The proportion of men to women
for the past three years, approxi-
mately 10 per cent is about the
same as it was during the first three
years.
In 1935 the demand for a dormi-
tory for men was so insistent that
some provision had to be made for
them. The ground floor, or base-
ment of Ragsdale Hall was fitted
out as a dormitory, but this is wholly
inadequate to meet the demand.
Whenever the enrollment of wom-
en has remained the same for a
period of several years, because of
insufficient dormitory space, when
this has been provided the enroll-
ment has always jumped up at once.
For the past three years the enroll-
ment of men has been practically
at a standstill, and there is every
reason to believe that the only ob-
stacle standing in the way of in-
creased men's attendance has been,
and is now, the lack of dormitory
space.
Entertainment Committee
Considers Other Sneakers
Following recommendation by a
faculty committee, there has been
installed, in the lobby between the
postoffice and the new dining hall,
a recreation room. A good piano
has been placed there for the use
of students. This room is also to
be at the use of students, men or
women, who would like a place to
socialize. No regulations are being
made, as it is the student's room,
and is expected to be given the best
of treatment as such.

Philadelphia, Pa. � (ACP) �
When sports writers had finished
their all-star picking, the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania faculty took
advantage of the lull and did a little
choosing on its own account�but
not in the sports field.
Given the opportunity of voting
for a mythical all-star faculty of
ten members from all the history
of the world and from any field of
knowledge and work, faculty men
and women of the University of
Pennsylvania selected Dr. Albert
Einstein, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle,
Da Vinci. Shakespeare, Galileo,
Newton, Darwin and Pasteur. Dr.
Einstein is the only living man in-
cluded. .
