but the bells in the Science Building
just don't ring simultaneously with
those in Austin not that this
young man ever had any class in the
Science Building, but it was a grand,
unimpeachable alibi.
But, now my friends, science has
found a way to remove that last cloak
for our human failings. A master-
clock has been installed in the Sci-
ence Building, and buzzers in all the
principal buildings on the campus
are regulated by this mechanism.
The old clock, which regulated
Father Time's duties at the west
end of the campus was almost hu-
man in its frailties. It was often
fast or slow, and at times was guilty
of stopping work altogether. And
instead of a business-like, efficient
buzz, the old clock w-as frequently
content to promote just a faint, mus-
ical tingle. The time piece in the
Science Building, although a great
many years younger, was an ex-
tremely temperamental doodad and
contributed its share to the eternal
mystery concerning the exact time.
Now add to all of these failings the
fact that the two clocks didn't get
along at all well together at
times it was rumored that a com-
plete divorce was in the offing . . .
and you can appreciate the time
situation on the ECTC campus.
But, "them days is gone forever
and these human, lovable mechan-
isms have been replaced by a time-
keeping robot. Ah, the pity of it all,
which inspires your correspondent
to a poetic conclusion:
Ah, bells there sound your unerring
ring,
"Oh, death . . . death, where is thy
sting?"
Ninety-six per cent of the gradu-
ates of 1938-39 have been placed in
teaching positions, according to the
statistics of the Placement Bureau
issued early this fall. There are only
eleven who have not been placed,
five of which are History and Eng-
lish Majors.
Two of the graduates have become
Home Supervisors under the Farm
Security Administration, one has
become a County Home Demonstra-
tion Agent, and another an Assist-
ant Home Demonstration Agent,
while another one has become dor-
mitory counsellor here at East Caro-
lina Teachers College. Four of the
graduates have married and are not
teaching. The rest have teaching po-
sitions throughout North Carolina
and in three other states as well.
These states are Virginia, Florida,
and Xew Jersey.

Monday night. Junius H. Rose was
accorded one of the highest honors
a Tar Heel may receive, when he
was installed, as State Commander
of the American Legion.
During the afternoon one of the
largest parades ever staged in Green-
ville marched from the end of Fifth
street to the college.
Music was furnished by the Green-
ville High School Band and the
College Glee Club, and the College
Band.
The Pitt County Post members,
Goldsboro Drum and Bugle Corps,
auxiliary members and Gold Star
mothers, Red Cross Float, Rocky
Mount Band, State Highway Patrol,
National Guard, college students,
Boy Scouts, (iirl Scouts, Washington
High School Band, School Boy
Safety Patrol, Plymouth School
Band, horseback riders, Negro Le-
gionnaires, and other floats also par-
ticipated in the parade.
After the inaugural ceremonies
Mr. Rose addressed the assembly,
using as one of his topics "American
Neutrality
"We do not want democratic neu-
trality, nor a republican neutrality
but a real neutrality Mr. Rose
stated, receiving loud applause from
the audience.
Mr, Rose, being himself a great
educator, naturally took up this
phase of the present situation, in
the beginning of his address.
He explained the present statute
providing an education for every
son and daughter of an American
killed in action or who died prior
to 1924 as a result of the war, and
added that it was the objective of
the Legion to amend this law to pro-
vide an education for every son and
daughter of a veteran who dies of
direct cause of the war.
The new commander discussed the
unemployment program for the com-
ing year and said efforts would be
made to aid every unemployed vet-
eran in finding suitable work.
He lamented the fact that those
men who joined in the fight 21 years
ago to save democracy so they
said, now find themselves unemployed
and said the Legion was going to
make it its business to help these
men.
The installation program was fol-
lowed bv a dance at the Armory.

The Life and Times of Edmund
Pendleton by Dr. Roy L. Hilldrup
of the history department of East
Carolina Teachers College was pub-
lished during the early fall by The
University of North Carolina Press!
and went on sale September 23.
Written over a period of three)
years, the book is a careful study of j
old life in Virginia, particularly of
the contribution of Edmund Pendle-
ton to his times.
Although at least three people have;
made the attempt, no life of Pendle- j
ton had ever been written and all
his papers and letters were scat
tered all over the country. The
author had to spend much time in
searching out his materials. Lettersj
in the handwriting of Pendleton
were located by the author in nearly
a dozen libraries in various parts
of the country. Some as far away;
as California. In all he has pur-
chased photostats of or copied about!
two hundred of Pendleton's letters
and believes that his collection is
more complete than any other.
The central idea of the honk is
hat Patrick Henry has been given
too much credit for the Revolution
in Virginia. The bonk shows that
it was Edmund Pendleton who
balanced the two powers in Virginia
Dr. Hilldrup is a Virginian him-
self and did his graduate work at
the University of Virginia. Related
to the Pendleton family through his
maternal ancestors, he had access
to valuable information and family
papers, in addition to that collected
bv libraries and historical societies.

Who said the students want-

on our campus? Well, maybe
they did want a new system,
but it seems that the one sug-

At any rate, the old idea re-
ceived a landslide of the votes
in the election Monday. The
"Againsts" out-numbered the

Is there another idea brewing

l)r. Roy L. Hilldrup's book, "The Life and Times of Edmund
Pendleton on which he has been working for over a period of
three years, has just come off the press.
The hook presents a careful study of old life in Virginia and
the contributions of Edmund Pendleton to his times.
Dr. Hilldrup should be commended upon the fact that no
other person has succeeded in writing a hook on the life of
Pendleton although several other persons have attempted it.
The contribution of Dr. Hilldrup to the field of history is
valuable indeed and his work will no doubt prove very useful in
research to the future historians.
Why ot Make the Magazine a Student

Along with the two other student publications on the campus,
the appearance of a third?a quarterly magazine will take its

Criteria for C olloe Entrance u the stU(ient body wants a school
Dr. James L. Meader, president of Russell Sage College, in an! magazine, then all well and good,
editorial headed "Conditions to College recently stated criteria
for the admission of students to college which he thinks indicate
whether or not a bov or girl should go to college. We quote the
criteria trout that article:
"You do not belong in college if you eannot make a list of a
dozen things that are wrong with you.
"You do not belong in college if you have an impatience with
books and must literally torture yourself to read.
"You do not belong in college if you arc planning to do a
minimum of work depending largely upon a winsome pcrsonal-
itv or the fine art of kow-tow to "get you by.
"You do not belong in college if vou consider yourself superior
to routine.
"You do not belong in college if vou cannot take criticism
cheerfully and profit by it.
"You do not belong in college if vour code of conduct docs not
include as much respect for others as for yourself.
"You do not belong in college if vou are dishonest, mentally
or otherwise.
"You do not belong in college if vou are not sufficiently curious
to read at least twelve good books eacli year that are not required
by the faculty.
"You do not belong in college if you blame others readily for
your own failings.
"You do not belong in college if you look upon it as a business
proposition or as the antechamber of social success
Dr. Meader is right. College students should be able to live in
accordance with these standards. One of the major objectives
in college life is that of adjusting yourself to the community
environment, and these adjustments can be made only through
conforming to such criteria as Dr. Meader has worked out. Unless
vou are able to follow these yourself when you enter the teaching
profession, how can you expect to prepare students for college?
If you do not know what college life requires then you are mould-
ing the downfall of the boys and girls under your tutelage as well
jority of the students would prob-
ably be ashamed to own.

There is a systematic way to go
about getting one, but it seems now
that the plan is anything but system-
atic and much less logical.
Let us use this comparison, Shall
we call the student body Germany,
the editors, business managers, or
whatever officials of the magazine
to-be will have, Hitler; and shall we
say that those persons shall say who
shall be on the staff and who shall
not he on the staff; what shall be pub-
lished in tine magazine and what
shall not be published, and whether
the magazine shall be "literary" or
humorous, and then in the end call
the magazine a German publication ?
That is to say, shall we let a few
students publish whatsoever may en-
ter their minds and then let it go out
from the college as being representa-
tive of the student body.
Why bring out a slip-shod publica-
tion of a so-called magazine that will
be a discredit to the college and the
things for which it stands?
If it is to be representative of the
whole student body then let it be a
student body publication. Let the
magazine come under the Publica-
tions Board and under the same rules
that govern the other two publica-
tions. Also, in the future I think it
would be possible for such a publica-
tion to receive consideration from the
Budget Committee. Of course, it is
too late for that this year since the
appropriations for the ensuing year
have already been made.
Why can the student body not
issue a petition to the president,
signed by a majority of the students,
asking that we have such a publica-
tion. Then a committee might be ap-

I think an explanation would help, hut if the old ECTC tr
not attending athletic events could be- broken down by our

The English Club held its first
regular meeting of the year on Tues-
day night, October 17, 1939, in the
English Laboratory. With some mi-
nute and very humorous details, Miss
Jenkins figuratively took the mem-
bers over the seven European coun-
tries which she visited this past sum-
mer in seven weeks, lacking seven
hours, with seven different kinds of
money.
Prior to this meeting the English
faculty entertained at the lake with
a picnic supper for the freshmen

afternoon, October 7.
Campbell, unscored on this season,
thwarted every offensive threat of
the Pirates, holding them to only
one first down. Superb punting by
Bill Shelton and frequent fumbling
by Campbell were instrumental in
preventing further scoring. Camp-

the second quarter with less than

President Meadows Addresses
Students In First Assembly
"For what are we educated?" was
the question discussed by President
L. lv. Meadows in his speech Tues-
day morning at the regular chapel
period. He compared our lives with
the perimeter of a circle as we are
educated we enlarge our perimeter
and we may enlarge it along many
lines. President Meadows spoke about
the six most important things we
obtain from an education.
We are edneted first for happiness.
Those that seek happiness never
really tind it. The ones that make
others happy are those that really
gain brae happiness. Happiness is
a by-product of life.
The second reason is for economic
security. He pointed ont how one
can't get along without money. An
educated person lias a much better
chance to make money than a man
without education.
Dr. Meadows explained that an-
other reason is character develop-
ment. Character is another by-prod-
uct?it is a concomitant part of our
education.
The fourth reason is Democracy.
If we are to carry on the government
we must he educated so we will be
able to keep the Democratic gov-
ernment we have today.
Responsibility is another quality
we get from an education. It is one of
the most important qualities a per-
son can possess. President Meadows
told how they chose people who could
take responsibility for the important
positions when they were recommend-
ing students for jobs.
The sixth and last reason is adap-
tability to environment. He said that
no person was really educated until
they were capable of adjusting them-
selves to any environment they should
come in contact with.

dressed the Y.M.C.A. at its first offi-
cial meeting held Tuesday evening,

from Adam and Eve to the flood;
from the flood to the birth of Christ
or end of the Old Testament; and
from then until the present day.
Mr. Harding spoke on the way a col-
lege student could take people from
each era as examples and use them
for the benefit of the world today.

Their defense was strengthened by
the commendable playing of Joe
Williams and Walter Rogers, who
were the leaders in the fine defense
shown by the Pirates.
William Harris and Bill Shelton
starred for ECTC in the backfield.
Harris scored the Pirates' touchdown
late in the last quarter. The
Pirates drove deep into the sailors'
territory on several powerful drives
and wTell-executed passes. Then,
Harris took the ball and ran beauti-
fully through the opponents' line
for the score. The try for the extra
point, which would have tied up
the game, was unsuccessful.
Although the Pirates were not on
the big end of the score, their
determination and spirit, despite
their underdog rating, gained for
them at least a moral victory.
