crafts and has visited many of the
centers where industrial arts are
taught. Some time ago she became
especially interested in the weaving
of the mountain people and decided
to take it up herself as a hobby.
Miss Sparger, who feels that since
the handcrafts have gone out of the
homes and into the factories, much
of the fine quality of hand-made
products has been lost, believes in
teaching her students the processes
of handcrafts in order that they
may be able to appreciate their value
in comparison with machine-made
articles.
In addition to Miss Sparger's ex-
hibit of hand weaving, Mrs. H. C.
Hanes and Mrs. Knott Proctor en-
tertained with a short musical pro-
gram after which the club members
and invited guests went to the Art
Gallery to see a puppet show made
and presented under the supervision
of Miss Hilda Ogburn, director of

Accommodation
Day students, except those
whose homes are in Greenville,
will have the same infirmary
privileges as the students on
the campus have had in the
past. Last spring the off-cam-
pus students petitioned the
beard of trustees for such privi-
leges and the request was
granted at the meeting of the
board last June.
Day students who wish the
privilege will pay $1.25 each
quarter. This is, of course, in-
cluded in the amount which
dormitory students pay for
room and board.

Not that there is anything dishonest about the way the money is

The student treasurer has stated that she is willing to go to the

Announcement has been made by the Board of Trustees of
Oast Carolina Teachers College to the effect that beginning with
the winter quarter, day students, except those whose homes are
in Greenville, may have the same infirmary privileges as the stu-
dents living on the campus have had in the past. Day students
vho wish thi.s privilege will have to pay only $1.25 each quarter.
The granting of this favor is indeed an accommodation to the
day students. In the future, parents need not worry about their
sons and daughters when they are ill, as from now on they will be
in competent hands when in need of medical attention.
To the Hoard of Trustees of the college has been expressed the
deepest of appreciation for the .service they have extended to the
day students of East Carolina Teachers College.

been at a loss to determine whv we
haven't been flying the flag hereto-

In my opinion, our spirit of Amer-
icanism should ho displayed every
day instead of on particular oc-
casions. If the fight against auto-
cratic nations had been consistent,
instead of occasional, you would not
have soon Mussolini seize Ethiopia,
Japan relentlessly invade China, or
Ailolph Hitler bring innocent people
of a race different from his own un-
der the spell of hated Nazism.
While listening to the Armistice
Day address of Congressman Lind-
say Warren, 1 recall that he referred
to the thousands of young Americans
who fell on Flanders field in the
World War. Flying the flag is one
tribute wo can pay these heroes. The
men wdio returned can still picture
warm crimson gushing from the shell
wound of a comrade and the groans
of agony that rolled faintly from
their parched lips. Surely they de-
serve the respect of students as well
as persons in the business and pro-
fessional world.

are constantly being subjected to the
so-called grim possibilities of war.

iPre-Med Soeiety Organized
Among the youngest of the new clubs on the campus is the
Tre-Medical Society, organized this term. This association was
formed as the result of interest manifested here recently following
participation of a number of students in pre-medical examina-
t ions, given under the supervision of the Education Department.
With membership limited to only those who intend to enter
Mime part of the medical profession, the group is composed of
approximately a dozen students who are at the present taking
special work in the Science Department here before going else-
where to complete their training.
The organization of such a society on the campus where the
majority of students is preparing for teaching is quite unusual.
However the forming of an association of this kind is fine indeed,
and it will no doubt prove very valuable to those students belong-
ing if plans are carefully formulated and then carried out prop-
crlv. The organization should make for a better and closer under-
standing between those students who are planning the same type
of work in the future. It should tie these students together, making
them feel more at home in a college where the interests of the
majority are entirely different from those which they as an indi-
vidual group aspire.
Laurels to the Y.W.C.A.
Let us show our appreciation to the Y.W.C.A. for the reopen-
ing of the reading room by not abusing the privilege of its use.
This organization has worked very hard to give the students
a reading room to use and enjoy. The "Y" Cabinet room has been
attractively decorated and furnished. Comfortable chairs and
sofas have been put there, good reading lamps have been provided,
and new magazines are on hand for the benefit of the students.
It is the intention of the Y.W.C.A. to give the students some
place to "drop in and out of Students may come in and read one
article and leave or they may without complaint from anyone, so
long as they have nothing else to do that is required, come in and
spend the day enjoying the magazines or anything that they might
bring to read from the outside.
It seems that anyone could enjoy reading in the new "Y" Read-
ing Room. Instead of having to sit in hard straight back chairs
with one's feet flat on the floor and one's elbows propped on a
hard table, students can now go in the Reading Room, relax in
an easy chair, sip a refreshing drink from the "Y" Store or puff
on a cigarette, just as they desire, and thoroughly enjoy reading
during their leisure time. And, incidentally, ash trays and waste
baskets have also been conveniently placed.

"The typographical error is a slip-

Lindsay Winchard introduced the
four speakers in a group. The first
was Marion Keed who spoke on Ma-
jor General liryan (Jriines, whose
portrait was presented to the college

life as a citizen as well as a soldier.
Emmett Sawyer talked of Profes-
sor Wilnam Henry Kagsdale, bring-

lina, that teachers need more than
just the ability to read, write and

did for the college.
Sarah Ann Maxwell spoke about
the life of Governor Thomas Jordan
Jarvis, his statesmanship, and the
important part he played in the
founding of East Carolina Teachers

Green Lights, tri-weekly student
publication of Greenville High
School, was adjudged second place
by judges at the Southern Inter-
scholastic Press Association conven-
tion recently. Competing out of its
regular class, the local high school
paper was judged with papers of
those schools whose enrollments are
between 800-1500.
Heretofore Oreen Lights has been
in competition with other schools
whose enrollments range between
400-800. Having won the cup in this
division for two consecutive years,
the local paper was automatically
advanced to the next class.
Maribelle Robertson, senior, in
the high school, is editor of the stu-
dent publication.
Green Lights' participation in
this year's convention marks the
fourth consecutive year in which the
local publication has been entered

student newspaper of exceptional
quality both as to news content,
make-up and printing was the first
comment made by judges of the
critical service.

Deal Discusses
Education Week
At Assembly
Brings Out
Main Points
Of Conference
In celebration of American Edu-
cation Week Professor K. C. Deal
spoke at the College assembly Tues-
day on the ideas discussed at the re-
cent JMorth Carolina College Con-
ference held at Greensboro.
lie described the college confer-
ence as perhaps the most important
educational meeting in the state be-
cause it discusses the problems pres-
ent in the school systems of .North
Carolina tod-iy. Mr. .Deal commented
brietiy on tUe main speeches of the
conference and then gave the re-
mainder of his time to describe the
suggestions laid before the confer-
ence by the chief committees.
There were two chief suggestions
made by the committee: iiiat no
certificate be issued after lU-iJ to a
principal or superintendent who
uoes not hold a master's degree, and
liave a certain number of hours in
education; and that there be set up
some kind of system to determine
either in high school or college
whether a prospective teacher has
the ability anu aptitude to make a
success of the profession.
Although this may be required
later on it will not apply to people
aueady in the profession.
lhe recommendations of a sub-
committee on language teaching, of
nhich Mr. Deal is a member, were
that the same basic English courses
hould be required of ail bigh school
siudents whether preparing for col-
lege or not. Dramatics should not be
substituted for a fundamental course
in hmgnsh or mechanical skill for
the study of fundamentals of Eng-
lish, ability to speak and write the
jbng.ish language with reasonable
accuracy, that tne literature taught
in the hign school be chosen to tit
better the level of the students, and
that written work be corrected and
discussed with the writer.
The week" Mr. Deal was speak-
ing in recognition of American Ed-
ucation wees has been observed
since 1921, under the sponsorship of
the .National Education Association,
the American Legion, the United
States office of education, and the
National Congress of Parents and
Teachers. This year the general
theme for the week was "Education

Mr. Dean C. Tabor, head of the
Music department, spoke Thursday
evening, November 9, at the meeting
of the Poe Literary Society on "Cul-
tivating the Love of Music
He pointed out various ways that
parents can guide their children to-
wards musical understanding and
ability, saying, Though only five
per cent of the children in the pub-
lic schools have native music abil-
ity, parents can do much to culti-
vate an understanding and love of
music in their children
After Mr. Tabor's talk, Edna
Mitchell played a piano solo and
Maude Melville rendered a vocal se-
lection accompanied by Wilda Royal.
This is one oi the many cultural
programs planned for tdiis year. The
society plans to have Music, Litera-
fure, and Art as the subjects of their
programs.

ECTC met its stiffest competition
of the present season last Saturday
afternoon on the Guilford gridiron.
The Pirates were swamped iJO-0 by a
much superior Guilford eleven which
also held the Pirate offense to a
mere two first-downs.
Pill Dudash was the only Pirate
competitor to exhibit any defiance
toward the opponents. He featured
on defense, making several tackles
after the hard driving Guilford
backs had penetrated the line of
scrimmage. Making his debut as a
kicker, Dudash thrilled his team-
i mates by a fine exhibition of punt-
yet been an ing, averaging well over 40 yeards on
his kicks.
This hitherto unknown talent was
only discovered in Saturday's game;
due to the absence of Bill Shelton,
regular punter, the Pirate mentors
were forced to try Dudash in his
new role. Fortunately, he was very
successful.

Tomorrow afternoon while the
ECTC Pirates are battling against
the strong High Point College foot-
ball eleven, the South's greatest ri-
valry will once again be settled for
the 1939 season in Durham. The
Blue Devils of Duke and the Tar
Heels of North Carolina, two of the
South's strongest elevens will oppose
each other in the unpredictable, ac-
tion-packed thriller that is typical
when these two teams clash.
A look at the two teams' record
for this season shows that the Tar
Heels may be the favorites. Impres-
sive victories over each of their foes
this season and a tie with the pow-
erful Tulane team causes much ap-
prehension among Tar Heel sup-
porters. On the other hand, the Blue
Devils have been content to eke out
victories by slim margins over
teams like Georgia Tech and Wake
Forest. Pittsburgh defeated the Dev-
ils early in the season by a one point
margin for the Devils only loss of the
year.
Despite the fact that comparative
scores indicate a Tar Heel victory,
one must remember that this is a
Duke-Carolina game and anything
can happen. Unfortunately, Duke
will be without two of its most de-
pendable players, Darnell and
Eaves. The Carolina squad is to be
represented in full strength with
each player in fine condition.
The question seems to be, can the
Wade strategy win over the Caro-
lina power? This writer picks Wade.

ECTC delegates are hack from
the Press Convention held in the
not so distant past at Raleigh, and
first-1 you've ever been to one you'll
know what that means! We shall
say that, "much was learned
although perhaps it would be better
to say that ECTC delegates did at-
tend all the meetings ? which is a
record. Just to prove it, I'll quote
from the November 3 issue of The
Technician, the State College paper,
which printed the following para-
graph :
When you walk in the first
thing that catches your eye is a
mob of delegates from ECTC.
And right there is one of the
best groups of convention dele-
gates that I have ever seen.
Honestly, ECTC girls are the
first to arrive at a convention
and the last to leave and the
ones who usually have the best
time.
Ask any of us who attended the
convention to explain those two
short but oh so significant words,
"swell time' (what are you blush-
ing about, Mary?), and you'll see
more than one red face!
And by the way, Helen, what was
it you and Jean spent such a long
time doing Friday night, rather
morning, in a certain? Ask Helen
to fill in the blanks for you.

they ate, with caveman tactics, a
most delicious Toddlehouse choco-
late pie?watch them closely and
you'll probably catch them dream-
ingly licking their fingers!
We're all wondering which table
of young men at the State College
cafeteria sent us those notes written
on paper napkins when we were
there Thursday evening for supper.
We shan't tell you what they wrote?
Alice felt pretty good Thursday
evening about 2:30. Just ask the
proprietor of a certain coffee wagon
if she didn't kick over one of the
wooden benches at her table. Such
strength, Alice!
And by the way, what was it that
made "Mousie" feel so low the first
day there. Three guesses.
If anyone has some detective
work to be done, see Ethel. She,
Alice, and Harvey did one swell job
of getting the "life" story of a cer-
tain couple on the bus. We wonder,
in more ways than one, how it will
all turn out.

the next convention ? but remem-

There are four types
of tobaccos found in the more popular
cigarettes, namely Bright, Maryland,
Burley and Turkish.
ALL THESE TOBACCOS except Turkish (which is
bought direct from the planters in Turkey and Greece)
and Maryland (which is bought through sealed bids
under government supervision) are bought at public
auction, just like any other auction where you might
have bought in a table or a chair.
AT THE AUCTION SALE the tobacco is piled in
baskets weighing from about 100 to 500 pounds and
each purchaser buys all of his tobaccos by competitive
bidding for the particular piles he wants.
THE CHESTERFIELD BUYERS buy the best of
these mild ripe tobaccos for the Chesterfield blend.
And it is Chesterfield's Combination the right amounts
of Burley and Bright just enough Maryland and
just enough Turkish?that makes the big difference
between Chesterfield and other cigarettes.
It IS BECAUSE of this combination
that Chesterfields are COOLER, have
a BETTER TASTE and are DEFINITEL Y
MILDER. They are made of the world's
best cigarette tobaccos. You cant buy
a better cigarette.
