Thanks For Your Cooperation
Another prosperous year is rapidly terminat-
ing a1 East Carolina and. with this issue, the
East Carolinian makes the final installment of
the college's history until next fall.
And with this final installation for the year,
v e wish to extend our appreciation to those who
made this newspaper possible.
Much is indebted to the staff of Renfrew
Printing Co which has taken a keen interest
in producing a newspaper of high quality as far
as the technical points go. Sherman Parks and
his assistants. Ernest Spain and Jimmy Which-
ard, have been most cooperative and have shown
t of patience to us as we have made blunders
t have caused them some added work in the
nting business. Sherman's reliable technical
advice has been greatly appreciated.
Cooperation from the Administration has al-
in pn ducing this newspaper. Their
form us of happenings on campus
made I ssible to present fresh news to the
students. And their patience in explaining items
?ughly to us as to inform our readers of mat-
?s without misunderstanding has been a great
help.
To the Student Government Association, the
up that gives us financial support, we add
r thanks for their full cooperation throughout
the whole school year. There, too, we have found
assistance to present fresh news to the student
body. And from opinions expressed in the Legis-
lature, we have picked up good ideas for editorial
nment as it is a representative body of gen-
t ral student thoughts.
Businessmen of Greenville have always been
willing to support the paper by their advertising.
When we produced six pagers and the one eight
ge paper, they were ready to buy more ad space
them possible. We owe them a vote of
? inks for the interest they have taken during
the yea) We sincerely hope that their efforts
have been rewarded.
We wish to thank the Daily Reflector which
made pictures possible by their engraving ma-
They, too. have been patient with us as we
e asked for last minute work.
i ? r appreciation goes to Mary H. Greene,
faculty advisl r to this publication, who is always
willing to lend advice and aid us in any way. at
any time, no matter how busy.
To the Publications Board, we hoped that we
have lived up to the trust and confidence that
was put in us and we are grateful for their co-
operation.
Last but not least, to you readers, who have
shown constant nthusiasm and interest in read-
issue, we are indeed appreciative. Your
to the editor have not only shown your
terest in this paper but also in the college.
Without all the above mentioned cooperation
this newspaper would not be possible. Again, we
say thanks to everyone!

moat come to an end, whether good
or bad. This column is one of them.

six page and one eight page paper,
it would not have been attempted
unless I knew that you were in favor
and were willing to work a little
harder. There was a lot of work,
whether producing a regular four

of fun and we enjoyed it.

which has been like that of a big

with each one of you will long be

I have made some mistakes
throughout the year, maybe some
unforgettable ones. On days it may

maybe I should have stayed in bed.
But even so, you have continued to
work for a better newspaper.
All in all, you have been a won-

Many students on the campus
are probably faced with the same
problem. A movie is much more
interesting than a chapter of
history. Therefore, the reading is

It is never good practice to

that students attempt to keep up

In the past we have often said
that we consider East Carolina as
b ing in a state of growth and ex-
pans.on. We have devoted our space
rhi week to presenting our view of
where this exjpansion should and
will ev ntually lead. We realize 11 .at
gome of the points mentioned or
controversial and others may seem
far-fetched, but this la purely per-
sonal i. emulation, or more of a dr? am;
and if we are going to dream ?ve
might as well dream for the best.
In the future we see the college
divided into several schools, such as
a school of (business or a school of
commerce. Each of these schools will
offer degrees, including a non-teach-
ing BS. Coverage will be greatly in-
creased over what is offered today.
We see people majoring in chemistry
and economics and geology and many
other fie'ds not available here today.
Before this can come about there
will necessarily be many changes in
the physical plant of East Carolina.
Already we see advancement in this
respect in the new library, renova-
tion of Wright basement, new dorms
contracted and other places. In the
future we would like to see a new
modern classroom building replace
Austin building. We would like to
see a new stadium erected with a
track around the football field, new-
lighted tennis courts, opening of
bowling alleys, and adequate space
provided for informal student recrea-
tion. Also a printing press for the
publications department and con-
I sitruction of a camtpus operated radio
station. The "Y" store could be turned
into a chop and steak house s.milar
to the one at State College; and one
end could be utilized as a soda foun-
tain, facing out from the room. And
in each department we hope for
added equipment, faciliating the best
possible instruction.
Along with these changes we see
some more of a different nature. We
can (picture students attending class

Campus Couple Of The Week
Greenville's Value To Us
Citizens, businesses and civic groups of
Greenville have put in a helping hand to pro-
mot Bast Carolina again this year. There is a
feeling of true community-college cooperation.
It was a grup of interested businessmen,
pn f ssionals and citizens that formed the Pirates
Club to add some 1.400 seats to the College
Stadium. Even before the organization of this
club, these local pescple solicited $25,000 in 1951
for the first sections of seats in the stadium.
Greenville citizens have also organized the
Pitt County Scholarship Foundation in an ef-
fort to provide financial aid to worthy and de-
serving students. Many civic groups and the
Greenville Music Club have established scholar-
ship funds that have enable a number to attend
college. Through their efforts East Carolina has
gained many valuable students who otherwise
may never have attended college.
Through work of the Rotary Club in Green-
ville, the District XAIA Basketball Tourney has
been held in the college's Memorial Gymnasium
f r the past two years. The Rotarians made little
or no profit for sponsoring the games. However,
they accomplished to finance twice the Pirate
team to Kansas City.
The Greenville Elks Club sponsored this
year the first bowl game at the college. Their
efforts along with the Rotary Club gave the stu-
dents here an opportunity to watch their home
team at home in major contests at a nominal
price.
Own their own accord town citizens have made
personal contacts with and have written letters
to State Legislators which have aided an increase
in appropriations for the capital outlay of the
college. - .

Speaking on the behalf of the staff
also.
We have attempted to bring to you,
the student readers, objectively the
news of the campus. We have tried to
give you the news that you would
want to read?mostly about students
and student affairs. We have sought
to educate, to inform, to interpret
and to entertain you in each issue.
We strived to present you a camipus
newspaper that you would want to
read and le proud of. In our at-
t mpts, we hope that we were suc-
cessful.
As leaders, you have presented us
with much constructive criticism and
suggestions which shows your inter-
est. We carefully weighed each criti-
cfam and suggestion and oftentimes
we profited.
A new housing project was the
setting for this week's romance. Per-

and Virginia "Ginny" Reed, a fresh-

A PARODY ON THE
BAREFOOT BOY
by Betty Lou Small
Shame upon you, little man
With dirty feet and face of tan.
You always soil your overalls.
You never come when sister calls.
Your lips are red, made redder stiU
By cherry (pie from the window sill.
Somotimes the grin upon your face
Reveals a gaping, toothless space.
Put there by the neighbor's boy
,Vhen you broke his Christmas toy.
A prince you are?poor Mom and Dad
Obey your Whims lest you get mad.
Mom and Dad may like to talk
About new cars, but they must
walk,
For you've an eighty-dollar bike
And skates and scooters and the
like.
Outward trouble, inward joy?
An aggravating barefoot boy.
ing so, not because they are forc.d
to allowing our present "cut" system
to be abolished. Many of the leading
colleges of today operate on the the-
ory that students, are at college to
learn and that they should them-
elves realize the need of attending
clasxs. At these schools class attend-
ance is not compulsory, what matters
is what the student knows at the
end off the term. As East Carolina
matures we believe a system of this
type will be installed here.
Before an unlimited "cut" system
would work the students will have
to take a vivid interest in their field
of endeavor. With the establishment
of separate schools here we believe
that this interest will develop. The
teaching methods in many classes will
e changed, often providing for less
classtime and more outside work by
the individual student. We can imag-
ine discussion classes held around a
table and even courses where the
lecture plays a minor part.
Also we like to think of this school
in the future as being void of cheat-
ing and property destruction. There
is the possibility of an honor system
working smoothly here.
There will be new fields of en-
devor for the students to enter. As
on many campuses the students ope-
rate radio station explicitly for col-
ege broadcasts. The college publica-
tions (which will be numerous) will
partly be 'printed on campus by the
students. Each .school will have extra-
curricular activities of particular in-
terest to those in the school.
Overall, at East Carolina in the
future the intellectual activity will
be much more noticealhle than it is
now.
Along with this growth we believe
will necessarily come many changes
socially. The college week once again
will become a seven day week, with
social fraternities playing a part in
the sjocial life of students. New re-
creational facilities, including lighted
tennis courts, will be present. There
will be an afternoon homecoming and
a Spring festival. The girls will be
able to obtain one o'clock priviledges
on special occasions. All in all the
social life of the students will be
much broader than it was in the past.
As we said in the beginning some
of these things may seem far-fetched.
But we honestly 'believe that in the
not too distant future most of the
above will be realized, not all of it
but most of it. Concerning some of
the things mentioned there is a dif-
ference of opinion as to whether they
would be an improvement. Personally
we think they would, so we have in-

Jimmy McCormick says that the fun h

the money he has spent. The courses have al
been informative for McCormick, but the
definite improvements to be made in the presen
tation of seme of them, he believes. Some oi th
general requirements for graduation are unneces

Edna Massad thinks she has received in r
education than she paid for. when the amount o
money and amount she has learned are e mpai

little silly. Education 1 is one of the courses I
thinks unnecessary. Students should be requirec
to take more courses in their major and mil
fields according to Edna. The foreign lane
students have the opportunity to take a dia
pointing minimum of courses in their field ?
she feels that this is a misfortune.
Billy Laughinghouse enters into the argu-
ment against taking the education courses re-
quired for the BS degree. Teachers need & BK
training in methods of teaching, he believes, but
at this time he realizes no personal benefit from
the courses he was required to take. Laughing-j
house also feels that more time should be spent
in the major and minor fields of study.
Most of the seniors we talked to have thor-
oughly enjoyed their stay here. Those who mad
complaints had compliments even greater tc
make. It is generally agreed that the educatioi
one gets is worth the time, money and energy
spent in the process.

Businessmen have been willing to place ad-

have never failed to lend support to the college

fay recipients as resource material.
Scenes in the play are based on
incidents in "The Life of Ellen H.
Richards" by Carolyn L. Hunt. Miss
Williams' play was first presented by
ihe Home Economics Club here in
D cember, 1952, at their Christmas
program celebrating the birthday of
Mrs. Richards, who is often called
the founder of the American Home
Economics Association.
The production was repeated for
the opening meeting of the North

vention at East Carolina in Aipril,
1953. The message in Miss Williams
play set the theme lor the convention.
tarts when Luther. a.s a law situdent,
gives up his studi s to enter the

tin'an monk, he begins to question
the intelligence and merit of certain
' olic principles including the em-
i has's upon holy relics and the sale
"indulgences" whereby salvation in
herea?ter is guaranteed.
His. qu stioning leads finally to his
Theses which bring .about open

Finally, aft r Luther's interpreta-

all Europe.
As a contribution to beitter under-
standing of the formation o-f Prot-
stantisan, this movie has few peers.
Whereas it may cau.se some dissension
b tween Protestants and Catholics,
it -eem that its historical value out-
weighs any possJ le dissension.
In certain provinces of Canada,
however, the film has been banned
by officials of the Catholic Church. ;

Stewart, especially, is a commendable

major role i? Sanford's bid for the
state championship.
Right now the Pirates can boast of
one of the finest outfields in the
conference and several newcomers of
potent aptitude will set the Bucs up
Uhty strong as far as the outer
high
Porter and Coach Earl Smith have
worked diligently in an relentless
search for outstanding high school
stars and have conn up with what
is to be highly potential group
of incoming freshmen and transfers.
First, let's take a peek at the per-
sonnel on hand which will make up the
nucleus of the 1954-55 aggregation.
Absent when Coach Porter unieases
his Pirates next winter will be All-
Staters Bobby Hodges and Charlie
Huffman, who combined their talents
a ? ason to lead the eager to the
North State Conference champion-
ship and the NAIA District 26 title.
Hodges is the greatest scorer in North
State Conference history. The 6'6
senior scored 662 points las year to
bring his four year total to a volum-
inous 2020 points-?a newly estei lished
record for a North State loon per-
I former. He was selectd unanimously
All-Conference and proved himself
the finest athlete in Buccan er his-
tory. Huffman, the conscientious hook
? artist, contributed much to pro-
duce the excellent 23-2 won-lost re-
cord. He scored 385 points and his
unding was a war of strength.
Also gone will the versatile and able
Paul Jones. The consistent "sixth"
mar; was the needed spark from the
bench that made the victorious sea-
son possible.
Heath, Thomas Back
Among the returning veterans are
Cecil Heath and J. C. Thomas. Also
vou may consider Frosh Don Harris
in thi? category, for certainly he
proved himself a superlative eager
in last year's wars. Heath is the
smallest in statue, but the most po-
lished player of the repeaters. "Rat
as he is affectionately called, is a
superb floorman and appears to be
in line for the captaincy of the coming
season's outfit. The little man can set
up plays and dig in on defense with
the very best of them and is tl
affirmed p fople's choice.
Thomas, who will te a junior next
ason. has developed greatly from
prep day and is oi.e of the league's
foremost guard Harris, the long-
range heii to S nn Russell's number
"14" is a semblance of the great
Russell in action and his blinding
drives I ring back memories of when
the Pirate captain was amazing ev-
eryone in the state. Strongest among
the second five who are expected to
reduce" in the fight next year are
Waverly Aikins, center, and William
McArthur, forward. Ron Hodge play-
ed considerably at guard utst year
and is now playing professional base-
ball. He is. though, expected to suit
up for the Pirates when the first
gun sounds. E. W. Bush, senior from
Jacksonville, will be back for another
year's elig'biliay also.
Recruiters Active
The tentacles of the enlisting staff
have reached out and induced some
if ? e finest prep players in North
Carolina to cast their lots with the
Pirartes. Probably the most renowned
of these include big Marion Hale, 6'
4" center from Wilmington High
School, and Lnwood Maness, 6' 3"
transfer forward from Camp ell Jun-
ior College. Maness was one of the
stalwarts on the Gamete champion-
ship club and was selected to the
irable mention junior college All-
America squad. Others who are inter-
est! ng in donning the purple and
gold include Fred James of Church-
land, Va who scored 83 points in 32
minutes during the past season. He
was one of t; e select few chosen to
play in the annual high school All-
Star game in Murray, Ky. in August.
James averaged over 36 points per
contest in 1953-54. Maurice Everett
of Robersonville is another outstand-
ing eager who is expected to play on
the Memorial hardwood next year.
Henry Bowers, 6'3" forward from
Knightdale, also is planning to do
his scoring for the Bucs. From
Greensboro is expected Waddell Solo-
mon. Solomon is a 5T0" piaymaker
who is reported to be of the Cecil
Heath calibre. Sid Manning of New-
port has indicated an interest in en-
rolling here next fall.
Carvel NickoLs of Tri-City High is
a rangy six-four and has already
applied at East Carolina for his four
years of college.
From all reports the Pirates will
field a formidable team next season
despite the tremendous losses. Re-
member what everyone said when
Russell left? Well, this past season
was the best a Pirate entry ever
enjoyed. Time will tell.
on Pine Knoll never came to light
but it was rumored that a certain
mountain gal who lived near Pine
Knoll had struck his fancy.
At any rate Henry's first season at
Pine Knoll proved to be the most
successful in many a year. The
Pine Knoll Panthers won not one, not
two, but THREE of their six games.
As a result of the previous year's
good fortune, Henry was promptly
named successor to old Pop Pigskin.
And then the fun started. Henry-
raved and he ranted; he beat the
bushes and came up with some fine
young monsters who could kick a
football a mile; he arranged an awe-
inspiring last minute schedule and
when opening day date rolled around
Pine Knoll's somewhat decrepit sta-
dium was literally overflowing. The
Pine Knoll Panthers won that first
game behind the devastating run-
nn? of fullback Slobberlips Slobin-
ski and marched through the rest
of the season with only one loss,
that a 13-12 defeat by Starlight U
a school where it was rumored that
players were paid for playing, gua-
ranteed passing marks in their stu-
dies, and given bonuses for out-
standing performance on the grid-
iron.
The student body and the faculty
were overcome with joy at the first
winning season in Pine Knoll's his-
tory. They even decided that Pine
Knoll was an unimposing name and
promptly switched to Pine Moun-
tain.
As soon as the football season end-
ed however, Hemy Halfback went
before the board of directors and
turned -xi hi n08- plea?1 off"
tilie-gria.ro. chamt. He sipoke vi-
vidly ot new buildings, an enlarged
curriculum, all the things that
would come from the money brought
in by a? all-winning football team.
All Henry asked in return was a
chance to have a free hand in get-
ting what players he needed (and
itisu ring that they stayed at Pine
Mountain.)
A f w of the board of directors
were hesitant at Henry's proposition
but the majority, swept along by
visions of national recognition for
?heir little school, carried
Henry's plan.
When fflie students and faculty
returned to Pine Mountain the fol-
lowing' fall they were overwhelmed
at the change in their football
quad. On the practice field each
afternoon herds of thundering ele-
phants, some of whom it was douM-
ed could speak English, pranced up
?ind down.
But wh'n the opening game rolled
around everyone was satisfied.
The Pine Mountain Panthers liter-
ally revenged poor little Sandspur
Seminary, a school that two seasons
ago had whipped Pine Mountain
40-0 The fact that four Sandspurs
were carted off to the hospital with
various and sundry injuries mat-
tered little, for after all wasn't win-
ning what counted?

THE LAST ROUNDUP: Now that
the year Ls drawing to a close and
East Carolina athletes are packing
away their equipment for another
year, the time comes to look back on
w! at has been accomplished and also
to look ahead at what remains to be
done.
Athletically speaking it has been a
good year for the Pirates. Four con-
ference championships out of six
sports isn a bad record in any
league but perhaps even this can be
improved.
Next fall the football squad under-
takes the most ambitious schedule
in tlie history of the school. Follow -
ing I at the tiasketball team swings
into action, also wih an ambitious
schedule to handle. Swimming too,
should come op with a top-notch slate
as the Pirates formally enter still
another realm of competition.
Spring will bring baseball, golf,
ivis and track, all with expanding
schedules and more difficult oppon-
ents.
The pressure will be on if the Bucs
expect to keep their championships
and more than one squad will be out
to obtain revenge for past defeats.
Still, we think the '5455 season will
be a good one for East Carolina.
Let'? hope we're right.
King Takes Golfing Title;

Claude King, the husky belter from John Broyhill ,App.
Wilmington who doubles as a foot-
ball staT, rallied from an erratic
start to capture the North State
Conference golf championship, de-
feating Don Smith of Elon in an 18-
hole play-off over the Starmount
Forest Country Club course Saturday.
Down two strokes at the end of
the fir t nine holes, King came back
aggressively to pick up five strokes
on Smith on the first four holes of
the second nine to clinch his second
successive individual championship.
The big football fullback posted a
oiie-under-par 35 on the back nine
with Smith going to a five-over 41.
King finished up with a one-over-par
72, the best round of the tournament,
compared to a 76 posted by Smith.

Singled for Owens in 7th.
Hit into double play for Hall in
by J. W. Browning
The East Carolina track team ran
away with top honors in the North
State Conference track meet Satur-
day at High Point, despite the ef-
forts of five other conference entries.
Tine Pirates, coached (by Leon Ellis,
took first place in the meet by rolling
up 48 points. Lenoir Rhyne, the de-
fending champion, took second place
with only 34 oints. The others were:
Elon, 29; Guilford, 23; High Point,
22; and Western Carolina, eight. The
other three conference schools did not
compete in the event.
The Bucs' young track squad wound
up with five firsts, four seconds,
five thirds and two fourths for their
total of points. They actually had
another first place in the mile relay,
but were ruled out on a technical
point of procedure. The Bucs fin-
ished the relay in 3:42, but
ished the relay in 3:42, but Track
officials ruled that East Carolina's
O'Bryhn Edwards cut in front of an-
other runner too soon. With East
Carolina disqualified, second-place
Lenoir Rhyne won on the strength
of its 3:50.5 time.
Although no records were broken
in the meet, the .Pirates' Bobby Perry
did manage to tie the record for the
100-yd. dash. The freshman speed-
ster's time was 9.9 and he now shares
the record with Lenoir Rhyne's Rob-
erts.
Perry Top Scorer
Perry led the individual scoring for
the Pirates with a total of 12 points.
He had to settle for runner-up hon-
ors for the meet, however, as Eion's
John Platt chalked op thirteen 1-0
points. Perry scored his total by
finisihing first in the 100 and 220 and
third in the broad jump.
Much credit should be given to
Coach Ellis and his squad for the
brilliant exhibition displayed in spite
of the fact that they were the first
track team that East Carolina has
ever had. Ellis, a former football
Standout at East Carolina, worked as
an e.vp rt to form this well-rounded
track team and his supreme efforts
were not in vain. The Pirate track-
sters performed as veterans with
many years of experience as they i run: Schmidt. Double play: Heath

mendable North State triumph.
track at East Carolina can be
expected to lie superior as long as
; coach and the 'players show their
interest and enthusiasm in the sport
th y have done this season. Most
o? the trackters are freshmen and
ophomorcB so the Pirates may be
j as ured ac having another splendid
squad next year.

Christians Hand
Pirates Defeat
In Doubleheader
Eion's Christians, winners of the
North State Conference's Eastern Di-
vision title, swept a doubleheader
from East Carolina, 4-0 and 2-1,
Saturday.
The games, which were played on
the Christians' field, marked the end
of regular season play for the victors.
Bast Carolina ended its season yes-
terday against Atlantic Christian.
Sherrill Hall and East Carolinaa
Jimmy Barnes locked horns in a
pitching battle that was broken when
the Christians scored twice in the
fifth. The victors could collect but
five hits during the contest while the
Pirates managed only two, both by
Paul Jones.
'n the second contest Mack Cherry
held tjhe Christians to three scattered
hits but shoddy fieldinj sent him
down to a 2-1 defeat. Luther Conger
went the route for Elon and allowed
only five safeties.
The Bucs collected their lone run
in the .seventh and final frame when
W. C. Sanderson singled, went to
second on an outfield fly and scored
on a single by Major Hooper.
