"Plant your banner of victory on
the top of the last bulwark, take
your standard of Christianity to the
highest peaks. This is no time for
fear and hopelessness to triumph.
We must not fail in God's cause
With these stirring words, the Rt.
Rev. Thomas C. Darst, Bishop of
the Diocese of East Carolina,
brought to a close his challenging
address to approximately fifty
Episcopal students assembled in
Friendly Hall last Saturday evening
for the annual banquet in honor of
the church leader.
"It is true that we are faced with
a world that trembles on the brink
of war and disaster stated the
Bishop as he began his talk. "We
are apt to lose faith, to become dis-
illusioned and fearful when we see
hatred, selfishness, and greed in the
hearts of men about us. But we.
as soldiers of a living God, cannot
adopt an attitude of defeat
The Episcopal leader continued
with the statement that the young-
people of today must hold to the
high standards of ethics and mor-
ality as taught by Jesus if Christian
civilization was to be preserved. "Our
modern social scheme needs Chris-
tian mothers and Christian homes
as we have never needed them be-
fore declared Bishop Darst in com-
menting on Mother's Day.
The prelate's address reached a
climax as he challenged his audience
with the statement that "there is a
glorious, a beautiful, a wonderful
hope for the followers of Jesus in a
world5 that needs courageous adven-
turers for the cause of Christianity
Bishop Darst preceded his serious
talk with a series of humorous
stories that kept his hearers in
laughter for several minutes.

Miss Ramola Sircar, president of
the Christian Student Association
of India, which corresponds to the
YWCA in the United States, spoke
to the Vesper group on Monday eve-
ning, May 8. She began the talk
by telling of the Madras Conference
which was held in India last year.
At this conference, the men's and
women's Christian Association
united into one group called the
Christian Student Association,
which, according to Miss Sircar, is
not a church but a part of the
church. We would ask you to
study this problem of church unity.
Please do not hinder the growing
movement for church unification in
this country stated the speaker.
The Christian student leader
then turned her thoughts to the work
of Ghandi and his followers. Miss
Sircar said that Ghandi does not
wish his country to win independ-
ence from Great Britain by violence
but by an appeal to man's intellect
and soul. The speaker pointed out
that war and armed might could
accomplish nothing for the better-

After three days at the same vil-

in sight of the Electric Range of

we were to come face to face with the

Coach Gilbert's Pirates dropped
the second game in a row to the
Panthers of High Point College by
a score of 4 to 3 in a contest staged
in the victors' back yard. The East
Carolinians hammered out 13 hits
as compared with the eight base
knocks gathered by the Pointers, but
did not make the most of their op-
portunities for scoring.
Wells hurled for the Pirates and
was rather wild at times which off-
set to some degree his ability in pre-
venting the Pointer batters from
hitting safely.
High Point had one big inning,
Glover. The Pirate pair had pre-
viously triumphed over these same
two Deacons on the local courts.

walks between two hits to score three
runs. In the eighth stanza, the vic-
tors added another marker by virtue
of two hits. Two of the Pirates
scores came in the fourth inning as
a result of an error and two hits.
The East Carolinians did their final
scoring damage in the eighth frame
as two safe blows brought in one
marker.
Shelton, scrappy shortstop, led
the Pirate batters with four hits out
of five trips to the platter. Mayo with

by the Washington Senators, was
ciHicolol to have heeil the het eol-
legiate pitcher in the state laf year.
Avers, kept tmt all season by injuries
sustained in an automobile aeeident
last spring, supplied the catching
end of the well-known Holland-
Ayres battery which proved to he
nemesis of so many collegiate batters
for the Buccaneer competitors. The
('orsair ship was also crippled by the
partial loss of Kelly Martin, who
missed several weeks due to injuries
sustained on the mound; and Earl
Smith, who held down an infirmary
bed for a couple of weeks, and also
worked out with the Greenville pro-
fessionals toward the close of the
schedule.
Of the Pirates' losses, probably
the hardest to take was a hitter de-
feat at the hands of Atlantic Chris-
tian who turned tallies on the locals
in the final inning and changed a
5-8 loss into a 10-9 victory, to carry
of' the coveted and newly christened
Bo-Hunk Trophy.
The Bues' greatest victories were
their landslides over High Point.
23-3, and William and Mary (XI)),
16-1. Ed Wells' pitching stunt at
Atlantic Christian topped the sea-
son's athletic thrills, when he hurled
the elusive missel for twelve dizzy
innings of an 8-8 tie and held the
Bulldogs to 11 hits, -hutting them
out for nine frames.
Of Gilbert's rookies, Norman
Mayo, from the coast, showed up
best. His first year of collegiate
hall. Mayo played a fine game in the
outfield, and later filled a gap at
third, hatting a clean 541 for the
season. Floyd Hinton did a beauti-
ful piece of work when he stepped
into the crippled Avers' shoes to hold
down home plate.
