The size of the delegation to the
State Stud rit Government Assembly,
which is to be held in Raleigh No-
vember 18-20, has been changed. As
t now stands each school is allowed
! delegates to the Senate and
for the house they are allowed three
delegate for the first thousand stu-
dents enrolled and one for each 400
afterwards. East Carolina had plan-
ned on sending a delegate to the
House for each 500 students enrolled.
Due to this change an elimination
of part of the delegates listed in the
November 4 issue of this paper will
be necessary. The correct list of
delegates will be released later.
On November 7 Wade Cooper and
Louis Singleton, president and first
vice president, respectively, of the
campu3 SGA, attended an interim-
council meeting in Raleigh to discuss
convention work.
The Hall Assembly will open on
Thursday, Nov. 18, with a caucus
meeting. The meet will close Satur-
day morning, November 20.
East Carolina's SGA plans to in-
troduce two bills. One urges a scien-
tific test for determining the extent
of alcohol on a driveT.
A bill concerned with different
phases of education, such as teachers'
salaries and scholarships, will also be
introduced.
Governor Hodges will give tine
opening address for this meeting,
which is the only one of its type in
the United States. According to Coop-
er, there is possibility that the as-
sembly may be covered by "Life"
magazine.
While in Raleigh the East Carolina
delegation will make its headquarters
at the Sir Walter Hotel.
At last year's meeting 27 schools
sent delegates. East Carolina was
recognized as one of the most out-
standing delegations at that meeting.
They served as the calendar com-
mittee. Three officers, the largest
number for any one school, were
filled by East Carolina. Duke and
Carolina followed with two each.
Out of the 965 freshmen partici-
pating in the testing program this
fall, Benne Jean Bendier, Gary, Ind
wa one of the students to rank
highest?that is, college senior or
better, in the reading test.
Benne possesses the rare ability
to read down the middle of a page,
grasping only a few words, and yet
understanding and remembering all
that is printed. Through this ability
Benne can read books much more
quickly than ordinary readers, and
retain more of the content as the
result. She began reading at the age
of three and one-half and at the age
of 14. Benne read the complete
Campton's Encyclopedia in one year.
'i like historical novels best of
all answered Benne, when asked
what types of books she preferred.
"Among these, 'Gone With the Wind'
and "Mutiny on the Bounty' are my
favorites
"I was coming from Goldsboro to
Kinston, last December, and somehow
missed the turn and found myself
in Greenville. After riding around
or awhile, l saw the college and so
when I decided to come to college
last spring, 1 thought again of East
Carolina was Benne's answer to
th" common question she often
e is "Why did you come so far to
olieo?" Benne also wanted to at-
1 a college in North Carolina so
i n.
by Anne George
she could be near some of her friends
living in the state.
Benne graduated from high school
in 1951 and afterwards joined up
for a "hitch" in the United States
Navy. She was a Corps Wave and
was stationed at Bambridge, Md. the
majority of her enlistment.
"Coming back to college after an
absence of three years from any
civilian school, I felt as if I were a
graduate student among freshmen
Benne remarked.
She seems, though, to have ad-
ju ted quite well to college life, and
has been on the Dean's List every
quarter she has been here. Benne has
also been active in WAA and last
May she attended the WAA softball
m! et at Wake Forest and played
the . osition f catcher. Last month
Benne played on the WAA volleyball
team. She also rode on the WAA
float in the Homecoming Parade.
While in high ichool, Benne played
on the Ail-American Redheads Team
and also played professional soft-
hall for four years. So it is easily
concluded that sports are one of her
main interests. Others include col-
lecting cuff-links and tinkering with
her car.
"I love to cook all dishes, but 1
sp cialize in spaghetti, breaded pork
chops, and chili. The first and last
time my sister and I baked a cake,
we used the wrong ingredients and
eventually the cake fell and the
icing ran down over the cake and
hardened on the plate concluded
Benne.
Does Benne find ECC different
from the average Northern school?
Benne points out that, "I find the
average student here at school much
fre ndlier than the a.erage Northern-
er. However, I do believe ECC would
become a much greater school if a
few more recreational facilities such
as bowling alleys and a short-order
restaurant were added
For future plans Benne hopes one
day to be a recreational instructor in
Chicago. So now she is preparing
for this career, by majoring in phy-
sical education and minoring in social
studies. Benne has also been serious-
ly considering returning to the Navy,
this time as an officer.
Although her crisp, precise English
is quite a contrast to the 'Southern
drawl' of her classmates, Benne has
adapted herself to her surroundings
and made many friends at East
Carolina.
The annual Sweetheart Ball, a
function of the Phi Sigma Pi, is slat-
d to beg-in in Wright Auditorium

The Phi Sigma Pi is one of the
oldest fraternities on campus, having
been founded in the 1930's. Require-
ments for membership in this nation-
al honorary society are leadership,
fi llowship, and scholarship, accord-
ing to a spokesman of the club. Dr.
Judson White, now a member of tht
Psychology Department here, was a
Charter Member. The late Dr. Beech-
er Flanagan, a former member of
the staff here, was national presi-
dent of the organization. Twenty-
four men students make up this
year's membership. Dr. Richard Todd
is faculty advisor for the group.
Meetings are held once a month.

Teachers Playhouse.
A new name, "East Carolina Play-
house was unanimously chosen by
the Teachers Playhouse in a meeting
on October 27.
The change was voted hy the cam-
pus dramatics group because "Teach-
ers Playhouse" was no longer con-
sidered accurate. ,
Organized in 1938 as the Chi Pi
Players, the group has been known
for several years as the Teachers
Playhouse. At present the club has
approximately 46 Tnemfhers. Patricia
Goodwin of Memphis, Tenn. is presi-
dent and Dr. J. A. Withey of the
English department is faculty ad-
visor.
Four major productions are pre-
sented each yeai with minor produc-
tions known as "workshop plays
Recently the group has given radio
and television sihows.
Of the four major yearly plays
one is given each quarter and a
children's play is given in the spring
for Pitt County children.

McCarthy Faction Gets
Battle Hymn Written
(ACP)?What with elections, rec-
ommendations for censure and all
else that comprises the wonderful
ield of politics hovering about us,
the Ivory Towrer supplement of the
Minnesota Daily passes the following
verses along.
FIRST VERSE
Mine eyes have seen the glory of
Wisconsin's junvping Joe,
He is tramping on the Communists
and Gen'rals, too, you know,
Gen'ral Ike and Gen'ral welfare
feel the weight of Joseph's toe.
McCarthy's marching on!
CHORUS
Unity within the Party!
Unity within the Party!
Unity within the Party!
We've got to march with Joe!
SECOND VERSE
I have seen him coming forward
with committees at his heels,
They have builded him a party
made of little Texas wheels,
And they gather at his altar
with their clamorous appeals,
McCarthy's marching on!
THIRD VERSE
He has sounded forth his trumpet
with a slightly sour note,
And will fling his reckless charge
just to win a single vote,
He's the only party member
who will always rock the boat.
McCarthy's marching on!
Pay Fees Early
Students may secure their per

POT POURRI
by Valeria Shearon
Who's Who Among Students At East Carolina
Judiciary Chairman Anticipates Graduation
As many of you may already know, Pot
Pourri is a French expression, meaning a little
bit ol everything. Without a conscious effort,
we have limited this column to the discussion of
a single topic in several previous weeks. This
week we are changing tactics. We are going to
give you a true to definition Pot Pourri, literally,
in the frm of a backward glance, from early in
September until the present time.
To begin with, we had a tremendous host
oi freshmen arriving on the campus in Septem-
ber. When we were amazed at the 900 freshman
enrollment oi last year, it must be said that we
stood m awe at the 1,000 plus that registered at
the beginning oi fall term. A major complaint
that reached us concerning these 1,000 grew out
of their misinterpretation of infirmary hours
and regulations. We sincerely hope that all such
problem have oeen ironed out by this date on
the calendar.
Of course the first weekend off campus was
as obvious to the upperclassmen as it was to the
freshmen themselves. Never before, or since
has c otlon Hall been so serene.
li took all hast Carolinians about the space
of a day to discover and uegm patronizing the
newly located soua shop, it took everybody a little
longer to be able to walk into the glamorous
student lounge without "oohhing and ahhing
Presently came a double dose of excitement
in the appearance ot a gal named "Hazel" who
tritd to wrecK tne Homecoming preparations.
: a u uiie on r riuay. and indeed until early
aaiurdaj morning, some weie prone to admit
thai siie had ruined everything, so tar as home-
coming vas concerned, but the spirit of the var-
ious committees seemed to be "do or die so
the celeoration turned out swell for students
and alumni ahke. of course we got some unex-
pected decorations in the form of fallen trees,
uul tnen that was to be expected.
The freshman class won initial honor and
recognition lor itself at an early date in the
quarter, when a freshman gin, Katherine Dis-
muke, was crowned Homecoming Queen.
following Homecoming, we had a couple of
.in snows, and then the Entertainment Ser-
:??;? ught tne Columbus Hoychoir here to per-
:n. lias was truly a thrilling experience lor

i his just about brings us up to the period of
pre-registration. What a headache that proved
to be! But it brought the realization that the
quarter is fast reaching its ebb tide. The clock
is ticking away and before we are prepared
lor them, final exams of the two-hour variety
will be staring us in the face. Now is the time
to secure that one or two or even that
four on the course you are presently flunking.
hour cramming, or early hour cramming,

apart, dues do wonders sometimes, but why tor-

around here as a long lunch line, or more so,
therefore why not start early and be readv for
them?

Now
President Eisenhower, who tried to tell the
voters how important it was to elect a Republi-
- ress, says he will c insult the Demo-
cral ngress on all loreign and domestic mat-
ters.
Although the Democrats won control of the
h (mgress last Tuesday, it does not indicate
a repudiation of President Eisenhower's admin-
.t ration.
Secretary of Agriculture Benson, who spear-
headed the administration's drive for variable
farm price supports to replace war-bom high,
id supports, seems to have won a vote of con-
fidence when his home state Utah sent two GOP
House members back to Washington; Utah had
no .Senate contest. The Midwest results were
viewed, too. as a farmer vote of confidence.
Not only did the Republicans lose control of
Congress but also five known Republican gov-
ernorships as well. New York, Pennsylvania, Con-
necticut. New Mexico, and Colorado elected Dem-
ocratic governors.
Averell Harriman, millionaire businessman
and veteran aide to Democratic Presidents, scored
a narrow victory over Senator Irving M. Ives
(R) in New York's dramatic gubernatorial race.
Republicans have held the governorship for the
last 12 years. The vote margin was so close that
retiring Governor Thomas E. Dewey ordered
P 'lice to guard all ballot boxes while the voting
was in process. Democrats struck paydirt for the
first time in 16 years when George M. Leader
rode to victory over Lloyd H. Wood.
In Connecticut, former Democratic Con-
gressman Abraham A. Ribicoff unseated Repub-
lican John Davis Lodge.
As for North Carolina, there was not too
much excitement in the elections except in the
Ninth and Tenth Districts. Republican Charles
R. Jonas was re-elected to Congress over his
Democratic opponent, J. C. Sedberry of Char-
lotte. In the Ninth District, Rep. Hugh Q. Alex-
ander defeated his Republican opponent, William
E. Stevens Jr. of Lenoir.
North Carolina's 10 other seats in Congress
were retained by the Democrats. Democrats won
all state races. Thus the election left North Caro-
lina with the same representation as it has had
for the past two years.
Former Governor W. Kerr Scott was elected
by an overwhelming vote over his Republican
opponent, Paul C. West of Raleigh.
Now that the Democrats have won control
of Congress and have a Republican President,
most people have a tendency to think of the
Hoover days, but chances are the Democrats will
give Eisenhower more good legislation than the
Republicans would. After all, the Democrats
have already promised to go along with Ike.

Editorial Comment

Last week the theme of an edi-
torial was a warning to campus

ut the at: er side of the question.

Couple Of The Week Letters To The Editor

As a recant initiate en Phi Sigma
Pi (the initiation discussed in Mr.
King's letter), I want to try and
correct Mr. King's rather crude inter-
pretation. First of all, Mr. King very
kindly placed the name "fool" upon
t e ten initiates trying for entrance
into this fraternity. It would seem
that Mr. King ha never "lowered"
himself to become a member of any
club or fraternity, hence the low
opinion of initiation. Putting myself
in Mr. King's place, I too would have
very likely had the same opinion as
he, I do not think, however, that I
would have shown my ignorance on
the stibject by making my opinion
public.
What may have seemed silly or
Loolish at the time of my initiation
later came out as important. Nothing
that I can recall was without point.
All things, seemingly foolish at the
time, were actually tests of endur-
ance and the like to be handled in
the best manner possible by the ini-
tiate. I do not begrudge Mr. King
his opinion as to the true meaning
of initiation if it was made in ignor-
ance, but if he made his statement
not in ignorance, I find him greatly
in error.
Though it may seem that I am
voicing my statements at Mr. King
mly. it is meant for any student on
campus holding a like opinion.
In writing this letter, I think I
speak for the nine other initiates
besides myself who became proud
members of this honorary fraternity
during the fall quarter.
Sincerely yours,
Frankie Keaton
(Editor's note: Mr. King's letter
in the October 15 issue was not per-
onally directed at the Phi Sigma Pi.
Mr. Ferrell's comments last week
bore no malice toward anyone; the
reporter was merely rehashing an-
other student's opinion. As for being
against a little fun, "all tine world
loves a clown Initiations have been
a part of fraternity activity for a
long time, and we doubt if the prece-
dent will be upset.)

This Week's Movie
by Roy Askew
This week's movie, "Pick-up on
South Street to be shown in Austin
auditorium Friday nigiht ait seven,
features three top stars, Jean Peters,
Richard Widmark and Thelma Rit-
ter.
The story of the film is of a pick-
pocket who get out of tfie pen with
no intention of doing right only to
be foiled by a beautiful girl. Jean
Peters, the girl, is unknowingly in-
volved in Communist spy ring.
Thelma Ritter plays "stoolie" from
two angles and it is heartbreaking
when she dies in an effort to sav
Widmark. Her one desire is to have
a Christian burial and this is almost
forfeited. Her part won her an hon-
orary award.
Widmark's comment on Jean Pe-
ters: "When you hit oil, do you al-
ways hit a gusher?"

Two League Games
Set For Saturday
Catawba is at Guilford and Lenoir
Rhyne at Elon in North State Con-
ference football games this weekend.
Neither of the contests has any-
bearing on the top position.
Appalachian's Mountaineers, the
undefeated loop chamips, take on out-
side opposition in the form of Presby-
terian. Other non-league games find
Western Carolina playing host to
Newport News Apprentice School and
Stetson playing East Carolina at
Greenville.
Feature game of last week's play
was the Guilford-Elon clash in which
the Christians scored in the final
minute for a 20-13 win over the
Quakers. Catawba lost to Davidson,
82-12; Tampa defeated East Caro-
lina. 27-14; Emory and Henry beat
Western Carolina, 16-0, and Wof-
ford conquered Lenoir Rhyne, 21-13,
in other games involving league
teams.

Last Minute Tie
The contest will be the third be-
tween the two schools. In 1952, half-
back Paul Gay ran 88 yards in the
cloing minutes at Deiand, Fla. for
the tying score as the Bucs and the
Hatters battled to a 19-19 deadlock.
Last year's game, also played at
Deiand, saw East Carolina swamp
Stetson, 40-6, on a rain-soaked field.
Nut since 1949 when East Carolina
owed on successive Saturdays to
Hampden-Sydney, Elon and Western
Carolina, have the Pirates been held
for more than three weekends with-
out a win. The loss to Tampa, coupled
with a defeat by Appalachian and a
tie with East Tennessee, puts East
Carolina in the same position for
the Stetson game.
This year's Hatter team has fallen
on evil days in the process of a re-
building program. Latest defeat for
the Florida team came Friday at the
bands of Presbyterian, 14-7.
Starting Team
The same Pirate lineup which op-
ened the season against Norfolk Navy
should take the field Saturday night.

stormed to two quick fourth quarter

yard march ended with Milton Col-
lier flipping an 18-yard scoring pass
to right half Emo Boado. Fullback
Claude King added the point.
The Spartans opened the game by
?coring twice with relative ease. A
34-yard pass from quarterback Bill
Minahan to halfback Don Herndon
accounted for the first tally after j
two minutes of play. A couple of
minutes later Tampa drove 82 yards
wir.h Minahan passing to Joe Knight
for the second score. Reggie Colvard
converted after both touchdown.
Following the second half kickoff
the two teams attled through the
third period with neither one being
able to put together a sustained
drive. Moments after the fourth peri-
od opened, however, East Carolina
suddenly found itself back in the
game when Harold O'Kelly broke
through the center of the line, found
himself in the open and scooted 91
yards for a touchdown. Milton Col-
lier converted following O'Kelly's
sensational gallop.
With three minutes to play in the
game the Spartans struck with a 54-
yard drive that gave them their
third score. Bob Gambrell did the
honors on a five yard burst. Col-
vard's attempted conversion was
blocked by Bob'y Gay.
(Immediately following the kickoff,
Tampa tallied the clinching touch-
down when a Collier pass, intended
for Bobby Perry in the flat on the
East Carolina 21, was intercepted by
Gambrell. The fleet halfback raced
t'e distance to score, giving the
S artans a 26-14 lead. Colvard con-
verted.
Tampa, which had been favored
by two touchdowns, ran its mark
for the year to five wins and one
dereat. The loss gave East Carolina
a 4-4-1 mark.
Local SiDortswriters called the game
one of the most thrilling ever played
in the Cigar Bowl.
Claude King, until he was injured
in the third period, led the Buccaneer
offense. The big fullback carried 11
times from scrimmage and picked up
74 yards. The entire Pirate line
played outstanding ball.

ACCORDING TO THE LARGEST and latest coast-to-coast
college survey, college smokers prefer Luckies?and
by a wide margin. The No. 1 reason: Luckies taste
better. Thousands of students appreciate Luckies'
better taste almost as much as the pair in the Droodle
above, titled: Sweethearts attempting to kiss and
enjoy better-tasting Luckies at same time. Luckies
taste better for good reasons. First of all, Lucky
Strike means fine tobacco. Then, "It's Toasted' to
taste better. This famous Lucky Strike process tones
up Luckies' light, good-tasting tobacco to make it
taste even better?cleaner, fresher, smoother. So,
enjoy the better-tasting cigarette . . ? Lucky Strike.

Sadie Hawkins Day Celebration Set
With Race, Costume Contest, Dance
by Roy McGinnia Jr.
In the midst of a busy exam schedule, East Carolinians
are going to take time out to run a foot race. The annual Sadie
Hawkins Day celebration is coming up on campus, and all the
guys and gals are preparing for it in their respective manners;
the fellows wondering how to get caught by the right girls and
the girls just preparing to catch some fellow. The shindig is
going to be a colorful break with guns shooting and people hol-
lering and everything in general going haywire for one happy
hour.
Since the beginning xf time, wb?n
woman first started chasing man, the
female aspect of life has wantod to
add a little legality to tthe man-
chasing custom. Time passed on,
however, until 18 years ago when
Mayor Hekzebiah Hawkins of Dog-
patch, in a desperate eiifort to marry
oil his uncommonly ugly daughter
Sadie, hit upon a scheme that finally
ended Sadie's 35 years of single cus-
sedness. His Honor decreed a foot-
race to be held between all unwed
males and females and ordained that
any miserable man caught 'by a gal
must marry her. Flourishing a Blun-
derbuss, he gave the fear-terazed
bachelors a head start, then fired a
second volley for the "howlin" mess
of unwed gals to go ascreechin' and
aclawin' after 'em.
Sadie took otff in a cloud of dust
that temporarily obscured her un-
comely face and permanently netted
her a mate. From that day, a Dog-
ger's life was a dog's life on
Sadie Hawkins day . . . and La'l
Aoner, whose brawny good looks
made him the unhappy fugitive from
H Jane gang.
Foi over 10 years, Li'l Abner, who
confined his passions to a dressmak-
er'i dummy and a cockroach, man-
aged to elude the glamorous belles?
particularly Daisy Mae, the gal he
" Leepised the least However, his
luck finally ran out and today he is
happily married to Daisy Mae, and
they have a youngster, Honest Abe
Yokum.
The East Carolina campus event,
presented by the Science Club Sat-
urday, November 20, will be com-
d of three main features, the

School Children Get
'On The Scene' History
Course In Wiliiamsburg
School children from all over the
nation are flocking to colonial Wil-
iiamsburg to get a history lesson
"on the scene" according to a recent
release from this Virginia city.
Some 43,000 students from more
than 900 schools toured Williams-
burg during the past school year. Of
this total, 2,531 were North Carolin-
ians. Besides North Carolina, 27 other
states were represented.
Armchair Football Predictions
by Henry
Every week during the football
season a football pool was sponsored
by Larry's Shoe Store of Greenville.
It cost nothing to enter and the
prize was a new pair of shoes. Last
week's pool was won by Mary Ann
Bryant of Greenville. She had four
miscues and predicted Tampa .vould
win over East Carolina by a score
of 20-7.
During last week 178 football fore-
casts were turned in. Douglas Scha-
Hathaway
fror. of ECC hit the Tampa-ECC
score on the nose at 27-14. Of the
178 turned in, the following is a
breakdown of the Tampa-ECC pre-
dictions: Fifty-one predicted ECC
would win. One hundred and seven-
teen preicted Tampa would win. Ten
predicted ties.
It appears from these figures that
the armchair fullbacks are pretty
much in the know on this game of
football.

Why Do People Buy Diamonds From Us?
Here is part of the answer:
1. We are the only American Gem Society Registered Jewelers in
Greenville.
2. We are the only jewelers in Greenville having complete diamond
grading equipment.
We have the only trained diamond expert in Greenville.
We buy diamonds unset, direct from a diamond cutter and set them
in our store.
We sell two grades of diamonds?top quality AAA-1 flawless, and
second quality slightly imperfect. Suppose you ere buying a $225.00
diamond, we could give you a flawless AAA-1 one-third carat stone,
or a second quality one-half carat stone for the same money. To
the naked eye they both look the same.
Our prices are way below the national retail average. You could
pay as much as $350.00 for the one-third carat stone mentioned
above. Our price for the same stone is $225.00, and our diamond is
registered with the American Gem Society as a flawless stone.
We know diamonds. We know the diamond market. We can save you
money. If this ad has not convinced you, talk to one of our many satis-
fied customers. They know and appreciate the fact that WE SAVED
THEM MONEY; in some cases as much as 50.

BEST FOR YOU. . . no cigarette can satisfy you like
a Chesterfield, because Chesterfield has the right combination
of the world's best tobaccos. Only the tobaccos that are highest
