A. B. Andrews, of Raleigh, the
gift of a steel engraving of
George Peabody, a man whose
name is famous in education.
Mr. Andrews is now, and has

The engraving is one which
Mr. Andrews found on a trip

It will probably be hung on

In addition to such help in the

been a marked gain in interest in
Red Cross programs on campuses
throughout the country.
The Bed Cross services which arc
proving to be most popular in col-

CHAPTER AT ROCKY MOUNT
The X'ash-Edgecombe Chapter of

very enthusiastic supper meeting in
Rocky Mount, Monday, Xovember

The thirty members present were
grouped around long tables over
which Mrs. Minnie R. Brake, pres-
ident of the chapter, presided. Mrs.
Earle Greatliouse gave a welcome
toast to which Mrs. Martha Foun-
tain responded.
Dr. L. R. Meadows delivered the
principal address of the meeting.
Miss Xora Beust, AAFW speak-
er at the Woman's Club building
Saturday afternoon, Xovember 6,
opened her talk on books with the
statement there should be in every
community a room especially for
children, to help them grow "in all
the directions in which they can
grow�socially, religiously, mentally,
in the line of the fine arts and
every way possible.
Miss Beust prefaced her discussion
of the best of the new children's
hooks with a comment on the real
need of children to have a library
of books of their own.
"As in social life she said,
"children should have a wide ac-
quaintance also in the field of books,
but should have, in addition, some
close friends to live much with
Xo matter how high a book is
rated, it is not a good one in a given
situation unless it really is suited
to the boy or girl who is to read
it.
The speaker said she no longer
believes in limiting purchases of
children's books in a family to class-
ics, but thinks that some modern
books should be bought to read just
for fun.
Miss Beust. who is a specialist
on children's books and has a con-
stant flow of new ones from the
publishers to her desk, had brought
with her from her office in Chapel
Hill a number of books just out.

Jimmy Johnson, one of ECTC's
most outstanding athletes, added to
his laurels last Friday night as he
defeated Odell Jackson in a
scheduled eight round boxing match.
Johnson won by a knockout after
15 seconds of the second round. He
knocked his opponent down three
times in the first round with a
vicious barrage of blows, and con-
tinued the bombardment in the first
part of the second round to floor
his opponent twice, the second time
for the full count.
In disposing of Jackson, John-
son defeated one of the Smith's out-
standing heavyweights. Add War-
ren, former champion of Dixie in
the heavyweight class and at present
boxing coach of Duke, claimed that
Odell Jackson ranked high among
the best boxers in the South. In
defeating Jackson, Jimmy Johnson
replaces him in the southern rank-
in8s- m
Last Friday's bout was the third
time these two heavyweights have
met in the ring. Johnson has won
two of these fights via the knockout i
route. Jackson likewise defeated!

LOITERING
time is here when students should realize that loitering on our cam-
pus is a serious problem. It i. up to the student body as a whole, boys as well
as girls, to solve this problem. The Student Government Associations
cannot clear up the situation alone. They need, and ak for, the coopera-
tion of every student enrolled in this school.
Surely if you have walked on campus at night between 7:30 and 10:00
o'clock you are not unaware of the situation which exists in regards to
this matter.
Will yon say that it becomes college students to be seen hanging around
porch steps, columns, shrubbery, and corners at night? Certainly not!
We have parlors open every night and they are the places to entertain)
friends. There is no need for one's having to entertain his friends at any
of the other named places.
It we will alter these circumstances it will be the means of solving another
much-discussed problem on our campus�the dating parlor issue. It has
been declared by authorities that if the students will be quieter in the
dormitories, it they will refrain from leaving the dormitories not properly
(Lei. and if they will stop loitering on the campus after seven-thirty p.m.
all parlors will be open for dating�each girl dating in her respective
dormitory, when we return from the Christmas holidays. We have asked
for the opening of these parlors; are we willing to do our part in remov-
ing the obstacles that prevent this! The proposition has been stated.
Whether we will solve it and prove that we really want the parlors open
i- up to us.
Let us bear the aforementioned three points in mind, and above all don't
biter on the campus, anywhere after 7:30 p.m.

Courses in Red Cross First Aid
(Continued from page one)
ming instructors at beaches
pools.
First aid. like life saving, is being
taught more widely each year in
colleges and universities by the Red
Cross. Today both of these subjects
are required in nearly all physical
education courses.
Following the adoption of first aid
as a regular course in many junior
and senior high schools throughout
the country, numerous teacher-train-
ing colleges have requested the Red
Cross to send its staff doctors in to
give advanced first aid courses in
their institutions so that the teacher-
graduates may le qualified to in-
struct in this subject.
Courses in home hygiene and care
of the sick are given to women in
many colleges and universities,
especially to students in home eco-
nomic and teacher-training depart-
ments. This instruction is given by
Red Cross nurses and, although it
does not qualify the students as in-
structors, it does enable them to
plan more intelligently health in-
struction in the schools where they
subsequently teach.
Each autumn, during the annual
Red Cross Roll Call, thousands of
university and college students in
every part of the nation renew their
memberships to help support the lied
Cross to carry on its disaster relief
work and year-round service pro-
grams throughout the coming twelve
months. FXeryone is invited to
share in the work of the Red Cross
by enrolling from November 11 to
represent tlie editoria
of I his newspaper.)
To the Editor:
The action by (lining-room au-
thorities in prohibiting the men of
the college from sitting together at
meals has been a cause of complaint
from many sources. 1'nderthe pres-
ent set-up. one or two members of
the male sex are placed at the fable
with the other four or five places
taken by girls. If a young man is
so unfortunate as to be the only
masculine representative at bis fa-
ille, be sits silent and lonely, eating
his meal while shooting furtive
glances at his companions with the
hope that they won't notice bis
voracious appetite. Meanwhile, the
girls carry on a perfectly spark-
j ling conversation about the latest

fensive play has enabled him to
often outplay heavier and stronger
opponents in the line.
New York state can be given
credit for furnishing the Pirates
with another game, aggressive line-
man. We refer to Kenneth Quer-
nell, tackle, who will graduate this
spring after playing only one sea-
son with ECTC. Quernell is a trans-
fer student from Appalachian
State Teachers College and lacked
only one year of work to graduate.
He has been outstanding on both
defense and offense for the Pirates
this season.
Gerald James, another lineman,
will also receive his diploma this
spring. This season was dames' first
attempt to play college football.
Coach Alexander has used him as a
reserve lineman this season, and he
showed up especially well against
High Point.

Bill Shelton was easily the out-
standing ball-carrier of the game.
In addition to his 95 yard return
of the initial kick-off, the clever
halfback made himself a constant
threat to High Point by his con-
sistent gains. His feat of scoring
three touchdowns in one game was
one which is not often duplicated
in collegiate football.
Ferebee and Dudash also turned
in splendid performances as ball
toters. Johnson. Carpenter, James.
Cecot. and Hatem were the out-
standing linemen of the game.
The most encouraging feature of
the game to the ECTC supporters
was the hard blocking of the en-

that the offensive drives of the Bucs
yielded pay dirt.
