Giant Tree's Cross Section
Receives Study From Students
Giant in proportions, a cross sec- begun last April. Two men worked
tion of a centuries-old water cypress,
recently acquired by the East Caro-
lina college department of science,
is receiving much attention on the
campus. The valuable specimen is a
gift to the college from Dan Stubb
of Windsor.
The tremendous cypress grew in
the Tar river swamp on the old
Fleming farm near Pactolus. Tower-
ing skyward, it rose approximately
100 feet from the ground, and mea-
sured 24 feet in circumference at
stump height, about chest high to a
man. A nearby sister tree which still
stands measures 34 feet in circum-
ference near the ground.
After Mr. Stubb decided to cut the
an entire day to complete the job.
J. O. Derrick, faculty member of
the college science department, coope-
rated wi i Mr. Stul'ib in securing the
cross section. As the butt cut of the
cypress was hollow and too large to
be moved conveniently, a cross sec-
tion was taken from the trunk about
18 feet from the ground. Because of
difficulties in cutting and moving the
large specimen, delivery was made
at the college only a few days ago.
Woodmen who counted the rings of
the tree when it was cut think that
it is more than 1500 and possible
2000 years old. An exact count of
rings will be made at the college
as soon as the cross section has been
"What Makes America Tick" was
the topic of a talk at East Carolina
"ollege by Dr. Gerhart H. Seger,
tthor, editor and former member
the Reichstag, at an assembly
morning. President John D. Mes-
1. of the college called the student
assembly for 11 a.m. today in the
Wright auditorium so that students
could have an opportunity to heaT
bhe noted lecturer.
While in Greenville, Dr. Seger will
eak tonight at a meeting of the
Pitt county Executives club, to be
held in the college dining hall.
Now an American citizen, Dr. Se-
?er was for several years an anti-
tfazi member of the Reichstag. Dur-
� g the Hitler regime, he was sent
to the infamous Oranienburg con-
ration camp. He escaped to Eng-
and and was later joined there by
. s wife and child, who had been
onfintd in another concentration
camp. After a time they came to the
United States, and in 1942 Dr. Seger
became an American citizen.

fraternity composed of college and
university men who are or have been
previously affiliated with the Boy
Scouts, is the newest non-profes-
sional fraternity at East Carolina.
The local chapter, officially desig-
nated as the Kappa Upsilon chapter
of APO, t)he 269th unit in the nation,
was organized during the 1952 sum-
mer term. The group received its
charter in ceremonies held late in
January. It has 32 members plus fac-
ulty and scouting advisors.
The ipurpose of the fraternity, as
set forth in the National Constitu-
tion, is "to assemble college men in
the fellowship of the Scout Oath and
Law, to develop friendship and pro-
mote service to humanity
Renders Service
APO renders service in four major
fields: it serves the student body
and faculty, the youth and commu-
nity, the members of the fraternity,
and the nation.
Prerequisites for membership in the
fraternity include:
1. Previous training in Scouting
2. Desire to render service to oth-
ers
3. Satisfactory scholastic standing
Aside from the regular members
each chapter has an advisory com-
mittee composed of five or more fac-
ulty members and two or more Scout-
ing advisors. It is the responsibility
counsel and advice and to encourage
high fraternal standards at all times.
The first chapter of Alpha Phi
Omega was established at Lafay-
ette college, Easton, Penn on De-
cember 1(3, 1925, by a group of for-
mer Scouts who recognized the de-
:i.i ility of carrying over into their
can us life the ideals and principles
which they adopted as Scouts in
heir boyhood days.
Performs Projects
During the seven months of pledge-
ship the local Kappa Upsilon chapter
erformed various service projects,
such as ushering for all home basket-
Sail games, assisting the administra-
tion in locating off campus living
uarters for freshman students, tak-
ing charge of football program sales,
establishing infirmary service, and
erecting a bulletin board in the post
office lobby.
The club also assisted the SGA
with watermelon cuttings during the
summer, assisted the physical edu-
cation department in the opening of
the new gym and sponsored a Christ-
mas dance. The members have aided
in judging local scouting events, and
they donated blood to the Red Cross.
Fraternity president Johnny Helms
of Monroe says, "To make Alpha Phi
Omega a real constructive force on
our college campus it is necessary
to enroll students and faculty men
in sufficient numbers to command
the proper respect as a campus or-
ganization and to have adequate man-
power to carry out major projects
in the interest of the canupus and
community
Equipped To Serve
President Helms believes that APO,
as no other organization on the
campus, is equipped to serve the
student body and the community, in
view of the fact that more than half
the men students on the campus
have had Scout training and the
spirit of the Good Turn is already
established before they arrive at col-
lege.
In addition to Helms, chapter of-
ficers are John Tomlinson Cox, Mt.
Olive, vice president; John D. John-
son, Rocky Mount, corresponding sec-
retary; Milton Foley, Greenville, re-
cording secretary; Robert Sears, Nor-
folk, Va treasurer; and Charles
Wentz, AsheT.oro, sergeant-at-arms.
Representing the administration of
the college on the advisory commit-
tee are Dr. Messick, Dean Prewett,
Dean Jenkins, Dr. N. M. Jorgensen,
Business Manager F. D. Duncan and
Alumni Secretary Butler.
Scouting advisors include Ercell S.
Webb, chairman of the Pitt district;
E. Lester Dollar, field executive;
Sherman Parks, Wyatt Brown and
Erskine Duff, all of Greenville.

Basketball season at home is over

The Bucs travel to Atlantic Chris-

to make the trip we advise you to
leave early to assure yourself of
getting a seat. The AC gym is very
small, and it is usually filled to
capacity when East Carolina plays
there.
College Needs Sidewalks
East Carolina needs some sidewalks.
It is a shame to see student and faculty
women mire in mud around the Teachers' dorm
on rainy days. To see them ruin their shoes and
hose makes one think how sidewalks would save
on foot apparel and female temper
Much favorable comment has been
heard by the "East Carolinian" staff
concerning our six-page paper last
week. We hope everyone enjoyed it,
for it takes a little more work to
publish one that size. If funds are
available, we plan to publish one more
six-page issue before the end of the
year.

Incidentally, Tom says that he is ex-
pecting them to come through at any
time. Tom is an air intelligence offi-
cer in the Air Force reserves at the
present. He received his commission
after graduating from college in No-
vember.
Tom came to ECC Fall quarter of
'50 and enrolled as a junior. Before
coming to Greenville, he attended
prep school at Randolph-Macon acad-
emy, a military school at Fort Royal,
Va where he completed his high
school education. He then entered
Duke university as a pre-medical stu-
dent and studied there for two years.
At Duke he worked on the Duke
Chronicle, the campus newspaper,
and was a member of the Pre-medical
society. After he decided to transfer,
East Carolina was his choice. He
said that the "boys back home" talk-
ed it up so much and told him what
a good school this was, that he de-
cided to attend. "They really helped
make the choice for me he said.

been here he has made an excellent
record, not only in the scholastic
field, but also in the extra-curricular
field. We can well see by the follow-

TIMELY TOPICS
By Bob Hilldrup
Not only does the Teachers' dorm need side-
walks, but there is a call for one running from
the post office to Flanagan building. On rainy
days one finds that he has to walk in the street
to avoid muddy feet. However, this causes traffic
confusion and adds to the anger and language
of the driver who dislikes turning out for pe-1 he doesn't belong in school

There are other locations on the campus that
could use sidewalks, such as one from Slay hall
leading to the street in front of the infirmary
However, we realize that this is impractical at
the present time because of the construction of
the new library, but we believe that sidewalks
could be laid at the Teachers' dorm and from the
post office to Flanagan immediately.
Taking in consideration that the college is
operating on a limited budget and that most of
the construction fund is taken up in the building
of the new library and a wing on Ragsdale hall,
we know that there is not too much money left
for sidewalks; but we feel that walks should be
made in the near future.

ing activities that he has been active
in maay of the prominent organiza-
tions on campus. These are: YMCA,
Phi Sigma Pi (on Executive com-
mittee as senior), announcer on cam-
pus radio, Alpha Phi Omega (char-
ter member and vice-president his
senior year), and member of the staff
of the TECO ECHO, -now the "East
Carolinian for both his junior and
senior years.
As a senior he was a member of
the Circle K, chairman of the Men's
judiciary, on the executive council
and temporary chairman of the
Awards committee after the resigna-
tion of the chairman.
Tom, being in the ROTC for two
years has received many honors for
his good work. He was a member of

Attends Legislature
Tom was a delegate to the North
Carolina Student legislature in Ra-
leigh last fall. The group sat m the
Senate and house and passed bills and
resolutions just as the actual legisla-
ture does. The ones that passed IB the
student legislature went to the North
Carolina legislature either to pass or
e rejected. "This was a great ex-
perience, and I was proud to have
the opportunity to go. We sure got
some good lessons on parliamentary
procedures he stated.
- For the past quarter much of his
time has been taken up by swimming
i-n the new pool at the gym. Just
about three weeks ago, though, he be-
came a certified Red Cross Life-saving

worked on this on and off for a whole
quarter�three hours each week day

Should Communists Teach Us?
Why Require Attendance?
Why are girls at East Carolina required to
attend the Entertainment series programs if
they sign out on nights thai the programs are
scheduled? The ruling says that women students
must sign out to go to the programs, if they sign
out on those nights.
We realize that each and every student at
East Carolina is paying for the programs and that
the numbers are supposed to help improve the
culture of students; but when one is limited to
such a degree that she has no other choice than
to attend the entertainment programs, we feel
that that is just going too far.
Just as many girls would attend the pro-
grams if they were free to sign out and go where

were whispered into the ears of the
Pirates' pre-season pigskin edition
as they got in a little early planting
for the fall grdiron harvest. The
local gridders have just culminated
five weeks of laborious toil through
winter grid rehearsals. Coaches Jack
Boone and Clyde Biggers, dealers in
football deception, precision and prow-
ess, directed the perennial fall fa-
vorites over a calloused course in
pieparation for their bid for the
conference crown.
Confronted with the tedious task
of reconstructing their style of at-
tack because of the recent abolition
of the two-platoon system, the men-
tors have worked fervently with the
array of gridiron candidates, and the
results have been pleasing. If there
are any sleepless nights spent, they'll
be because of the complex problem
of selecting a starting eleven from
the talented lads on hand.
The results of an interview with
Coach Biggers and the fruits of the
winter practices produced these in-
teresting pieces for speculation. At
the flanks the Pirates have five good
, ass-snatchers in the personages of
Al Haf it, J. D. Bradford. Larry
Rhodes, Harry Rainey and Bob Cham-
bers. This quintet of outside men
have shown sparks of brilliance and
their presence will be heavily felt in
the loop.
The tackles are loaded with size
and power. Willie Holland, All-con-
ference devastator, and Frank Turner
hold the edge over a pressing field
of John Brown, Bobby (Tubby)
Thomas, Gene Taylor and Sonny Cal-
lahan. Callahan suffered an injury
at the beginning of last season and
was forced to play hookey through
last year's schedule. He should prove
beneficial to the Pirates.
When the chalk lines unravel next
fall, they will reveal, snuggled close
to the centers, a dynamic array of
guards. This stalwart position is the

composing the gilted group. These
boys have been a house afire in
practice and exhibit speed, power
and "knockem dead" know how.
In the middle of the bulkhead,
standing as fortified as Sherman
tanks, are Gaither Cline, Louis Hal-
low and Waylon Cheston. This trio
of snapper-backs are thunderous ag-
gressors with plenty of size.
Turning the coaching spotlight on
Coach Boone, we conceive of these
bits of tipping concerning the lea-
ther-luggers. Dick Cherry, sensation-
al as a freshman last year, steps
out front in the quarterback line,
and he will again function as the
heart in the Buccaneers' attack. He
can run, pass and fake you silly.
Signal-calling behind Cherry are Boyd
Webb, Louis Collier and Bermey Ste-
phens. These boys have developed
well, but need experience.
Sabre-jetted halfbacks include Jack
Britt, Paul Gay, Jim Stanley, Tom
Allsbrook, Toppy Hayes, Ted Barnes
and Eno Boado. This flock of flitters
can hot-foot with the best in the
South and will give the Buccaneers
a slashing scoring menace.
Claude King, a .bulldozing fullback
wit li piston-like legs, will be the
blasting powder in the Pirates'
charge. Other power-men at the full-
back post will be Bobby Strickland,
Ralph Britt and Bubba Matthews.
Many newcomers were auditioned
during the weeks of ponderation and
some showed elite football ability.
These high schoolers will probably
helmet-up for the Pirates next fall.
Coaches Boone and Biggers and
the players are filled with optimism
concerning the success of the 1953
chapter of the .Pirates in the North
State conference. They are loaded
with terrific potentials and barring
injuries should do to their opponents
what Nero did to Rome. The tutoring
staff is confident when they remark

East Carolina's Pirates clinched
first place in the North State con-
ference race with a sizzling 100-87
victory over High Point here Wedne
day night in the last home game oi
the season for the Bucs.
Sonny Russell, brilliant All-state
and All-conference forward for the
Pirates, closed out his home career
with one of his beat games. He eap-
tured high scoring honors for East
Carolina with 21 points. Russell, a
native of New Bern and captain cf
the Pirates, was presented a letUi
from the student body prior to the
game which expressed the appre-
ciation of his classmates for hii
outstanding play.
East Carolina took the lead in
the first quarter and the ton wai
soon settled beyond doubt. By hall-
time, the Pirates were in com-
mand, 56-37. The century mark was
hit with 30 seconds remaining in
the game. Paul Jones connected for
the lust goal.
Behind Russell, two Pirates were
deadlocked in the scoring, with 20
points each. They were Bobl '

Ask yourself this question: Why do I smoke?
You know, vourself, you smoke for enjoyment
And you get enjoyment only from the taste of a
cigarette.
Luckies taste better-cleaner, fresher, smoother!
Whv? Luckies are made better to taste better. And,
what's more, Luckies are made of fine tobacco.
L.S.M.F.T Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco.
So, for the thing you want most in a cigarette
for better taste-for the cleaner, fresher, smoother
taste of Lucky Strike
