The college band will soon have

ernment Association footing the ma-
jor portion of the bill, according to
a bill passed in last week's student
legislature meeting. Soon means
sometime next year, if next year's
SGA will provide an amount to match
the $1800 this year's body has just
appropriated.
t the February 9 meeting of the
udent Legislature Howard Rooks,
?hai-man of the Budget Committee,
proposed to the body that $1800 be
aj) l ropriated on tl-e purchase of new
ban 1 uniforms. The Athletic Depart-
ment agreed to contribute $1000 on
the payment while last year's Sum-
mer School legislature made an ap-
propriation of $900. The plans indi-
cated that the S. G. A. would be re-
quested to give $3600 with f ;s year's
'ody giving $1800 of this amount.
The remaining amount of this request
will go before next year's S. G. A.
This year's Summer School S. G. A.
will be requested to appropriate $900.
When the purchase is made, 125
uniforms will be obtained with plans
or a 100-piece band. In the serious
discussion which took place, it was
brought to the attention of tlhe body
that the band is an excellent repre-
sentative of our school and that they
certainly deserve decent uniforms.
After considerable discussion the
body accepted the proposal.
Jean Buchanan, of the Home Eco-
nomics Club, reported that the Al-
pha Pi Omega had damaged some of
the table cloths owned by the S.G.A.
The secretary was instructed to write
a letter to this fraternity requesting
that they replace the damaged table
c'oths.

From A Speech By McArthur
Formosa, Link In Defense Chain
(Editor's note: Following is a part
of a speech made by an ex-army
great, Douglas MacArthur, on the
situation in Formosa. We thought it
truthful and that it might be in-
cresting to our readers.)
"Strategically, the problem there
(in the Far East) has developed along
classical lines?the familiar case of
a concentrated enemy in a central
position deployed against scattered
allies. Red China, inherently weak in
indurtrial output for modern war but
strong in manpower, engaged on
three fronts?Korea, Indochina and
in civil war will Nationalist China.
Fighting on all three simultaneously
meant defeat, but individually the
chances were excellent. The hope for
victory d&;ended on getting a cease-
fire on some fronts so that the full
potential of its limited military might
ould be thrown against the remain-
ing one or oms. That is what has
happened and is happening. First was
the cessation of the civil war action
by the isolation in the Formosa area.
which practically immobilized Nation-
alist China, one of the allies. Red
China then concentrated against Ko-
rea and Indochina. But even the dou-
ble front was too much for its strain-
ed resources, so a cease-fire was
obtained in Korea. This immobilized
the so-called United Nations forces
and the South Koreans and left Red
China free to concentrate on the third
front?Indochina and the French.
"Successful tfiere, the Reds now
turn hack to the old first front, lo-
cated in Formosa. As Napoleon Bona-
parte once said: 'Give me allies as
an enemy so that I can defeat them

in order to elect the May Queen's
court, but they were not released in
time to meet the press. The Fresh-

lowed two representatives each while
the Junior and Senior classes are
allowed four avid six respectively.
In a campus-wide election students
will he able to pick the Queen and
her Maid of He nor from the six re
rasentatives of the senior class. This
election will be held on March 10
from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the
Student Union. The Queen, along with
her Maid of Honor, represent the
entire student body; therefore, every-
one is urged to go to the polls and
make their choice.
At a recent meeting of the S.G.A
changes were made in the May Day
program. Instead of an afternoon out-
door program there will be a big
College Spring May Day Dance at

stratas the inherent weakness of the
theory of collective security?the
chain is no stronger than its weakest
link, and what is even more vital-
its full power can only be utilized

taneously into action. The diverse in-

On Votes And Books
by Stan Jones
If the last two elections open to the general
student body are indicative of student interest
in affairs directly concerning them and their
rights while students at East Carolina, then we
are in sad strait. The student body is just plain
lucky in that they have any rights whatsoever.
We are lucky that we have a generous, progress-
ive administration, we are lucky that for the
most part we have an aggressive, unselfish group
of SGA representatives, who have the drive and
initative to legislate in the best interest of the
students.
This is not always guaranteed. It is simply
a stroke of blind, simple, blissful, fortune. There
are some who would say that such disinterested
people are not capable of self government and we
are inclined to agree. Until the sheep evolute to
the point where they can assert themselves, they
should be herded along by the leaders.
One dorm, if organized, could dominate gen-
eral campus elections. To illustrate this we can
take the average total number of voters in the
last elections and compare them with Slay Hall
voting as a block. Compared with past interest
in elections, Ragsdale, Cotten, Fleming, Jarvis,
Wilson Halls with the combined day student en-
rollment wouldn't stand a chance. Yet, Slay
Hall comprises about five per cent of the total
student body. This is a direct ratio of the ruling
forces in the Soviet Union where actually about
five per cent of the population are party mem-
bers.
Millions around the earth are herded by
force, but only in the U. S. do we find such a
voluntary subserviant. This same lack of interest
can be seen in national politics and the sad group
of students we have will continue to roll along
in unabashed ignorance.
Perhaps we are wrong. Maybe Joe and Jane
College will rise above the ordinary. We think,
however, that this is too much to hope for. Col-
lege student above the ordinary?preposterous!
To take the trouble to thnk and vote! Why that
w uld be un-American, un-North Carolinian, un-
Ea t Carolinian, and un-soda shoppe.
The resignation of Russia's pre
mi i, Malenkov, pushed the Formosa
. ue back for a while and the eyes
and cars of the press turned toward
the Kremlin, in an effort to learn
i much as possible about what will
b in the future for the world from
. e Red Russia corner. Those who
Lnow something bout the Commu-
. ??; way of doing things know that
there was more to Malenkov's resig-
nation than his admission of failure
o do his job well. Malenkov himself
must know ti at pretty soon his use-
'uhus as a superior statesman will
be rewarded amply; he will no doubt
?jo the way of many of his prede-
cessors and within a comparatively
short time, a conspicuous sitate fun-
eral will be held for him. The fun-
eral arrangements were made, in the
opinion of most of tine critics who
know about the inside of the Krem-
lin, prior to his resignation.
What about the new Soviet boss?
What kind of person is he? and will
bis administration bring a third world
war any nearer?
Nikolai Bulganin, wfho has been
called mild-eyed and who does wear
a goatee, is undoubtedly a shrewd
and ambitious leader. He is one of
he aggregation who get what they
: out to get, using every means at
I ? i d, no matter how varied may be
the techniques required. He has been
on liis way to the top in the Soviet
high circle for a long time. He came
up by his own initiative which meant
to him chat he should meet the right
pea le at the right time and listen
to them only long enough to enable
to see through them. All these
?v u' know about Bulganin come
m press releases and news reports
m inside the Russian regime.
V: the age of 122, Bulganin became
member of the Cheka, the secret
ice agency which did so much to
Russia of undesirables This
equired little leniency and little
' umanitarian instincts. He began his
advance, then at at) early age. He
worked with Stalin and won his re-
? During World War II he served
?- military strategist and was
? v :? tally appointed to membership
State Committee of Defense.
This was the all-powerful body which
made decisions with their only aim
? i produce an armored policy which
would work, whetf er normal execu-
tive ana legislative policies worked
q r. Bulganin kept "hob-knobbing"
the right people and since the
ns come all the way up. He is
the military man tfat Khruschev,
iggesd dog in the kennel, is but
logical to assume that he will
put his military instincts to work in
his policies.
It has been said that Malenkov
is life-line by being too relaxed
with the military budget. Does the
mffle in policy mean that the
tmoui I spent for preparation for war
in Russia will keep rising and rising?
Bulganin was friendly with Malen-
kov; he knew enough to side witfh
the winner in the Malenkov-Beria
struggle. Now, as chairman of the
Council of Ministers, will the man
with the pointed beard be legs con-
cerned witfc keeping world peace than
was his predecessor?
Our choice for this week's Who's
Who is quite a familiar person
around our campus. She is Patsy
Paptpendick, who is from Elizabeth
City. Patsy had several good reasons
for making East Carolina College her
choice. People from Elizabeth Ci y
who were already enrolled at East
Carolina certainly impressed Patsy
with their favorable re-marks. It
seems that she had previous plans
prior to deciding on Easit Carolina.
"I had planned to go to W. C says
Patsy, "but after attending the band
clinic my Junior year in iugh school
I changed my mind Laughingly, she
remarked, "I had the test time, and
it sold me on a co-ed school
Now that she Is here Patsy ex-
presses "her opinion by saying, "I love
it to death and hate to leave. I
wouldn't trade it for anything
Patsy has been quite active as well
a smart during her enrollment. She
has been a member af the A.C.E.
four years and this year she serves
as president of this organization.

incidentally, we might note here that
Patsy is a primary education major.

active pan in the music department
This position gives her a seat on the many people have the impression
S. G. A. During her Freshman year
she was a member of the F. T. A. and
she served as a counselor for Fresh-
man girls her sophomore year. The
college choir and band have also tak-
en up much of Patsy's time for all
four years.
I am sure we all recall her excel-
lent performance in lasft year's stu-
dent production, which was "Blossom
Time She was in the chorus of "The
Student Prince which was given her
sophomore year.
Patsy has really enjoyed her music
ex portunitie.s, because she has had
experiences that she feels she could
not have acquired elsewhere. She
finds it enjoyable to be around music
majors. In fact, .he gays that she
t at Patsy is a music major.
As va recently announced, Patsy
was chosen Hiss R resenanthre Stu-
dent Teacher of 1955. This proved to
be quite an honor for Patsy. She
states, "It was the biggest thrill and
honor of a lifetime

experiences

enjoys singing and we might note
that she can sing alto, soprano and
tenor. Actually, she is a contralto.
Doll collecting has also proven to be
an active hobby. Patsy rfftyi ne has
?i ioximately 24 foreign dolls and
93 story dolls.
This young girl's favorite food is
steak (and gobs oif it) while her
favorite :ports are baseball, basket-
ball and foot all. However, she con-
fided that stte has been watching
football lor ten yeans and still doesn't
understand it. As everyone can plain-
ly see her favorite color is red. Inci-
dentally her roommate, Pat Dawson,
lakes red also. Pausy says that every-
one teases them when they are not
v. aring red. Many enjoyable experi-
nces have been gfhared by these two
girls. Patsy says, "We really enjoyed
the snow- especially the snow cream
We made from the snow on the Flem-
ing hall porch
Throughout her entire enrollment
Patsy has been either an honor roll
or Dean's list student and she is to
be a member of the Kajn; a Delta Pi,
which is an honorary educational fra-
ternity.
Among all her honors, Patsy feels
that her greater honors were that

Teacher and Ufco'fl Who Among

Patsy, who will graduate at the
end of this quarter, plans to teach
in the third grade at Elizabeth City
for the remainder of tihis year, but
she then plans to teach the first
grade of Elizabeth City for the next
two years. Cupid has plans for her

few requests, we are thinking of
its g another for Spring Quarter.
Nine d- legates to the Columbia
Scholastic Press Convention have
been selected from among the staff
members and we will leave for the
big city on March 7.
What with the quarter coming to an end
and a new one coming in, perhaps one of our
service fraternities might find it convenient to
spensor a book exchange.
Students wishing to trade or sell used books
e at odds end because of lack of student or-
g mization in the used book field. A student could
set a -e'ling price for his book and the dispenser
uld tap the take for at least 5. It would add
to the fraternity coffers and yield the student
body a greatful service.
" Better still, Department clubs could handle
texts frcm their individual department and
spread lhe loot around a little more.
With textbooks at an exhorborant high

is no relief in sight.
Open House To Russians
(ACP) Letters recently circulated by stu-
dent councils from Swarthmore and Oberlin Col-
leges proposed inviting Russian college news-
paper editors to the United States to let them see
American life firsthand.
Last year U. S. college editors, including the
Minnesota Daily editor, made such a tour of
Russia, and came back with firsthand views on
the everyday affairs of the Russians they met.
The speeches they made, the articles they wrote
proved fresh and valuable.
We can never know, of course, what effect
a Russian editor's visit might have in Russia.
But we think the effect on the editors and the
Americans who meet them would be beneficial.
They see the way of life we value, and, if it is as
good as we believe, its influence should raise
doubts in their minds about communism.
Two UCLA students, when an invitation to
the Russians was discussed at their student leg-
islature, expressed the fear that college editors
would only spread propaganda about communism
here. If Americans are actually afraid that Rus-
sians could convince students that Russia is the
better country, our system is already dying.
The American editors who visited Russia
last January reported that some college editors
thev met there were adult non-students hired by We aho doubt the validity of a fail
someone to run the school publications. Perhaps ure in any course; failure means, ac
a college student editor does not even exist in
Russia.
More On Bohunk Trophy

again, which means that ACC has
another chance at Bohunkus the old J
wooden bucket which goes to the win-
ner of any athletic contest between
tthe two schools.
We stated a few issues back that
the only early history that the Ath-
letic D -partment could give us about
the trophy was that wTnch was writ-
ten on the bucket. From the bucket
we found that the first scores re-
corded were in 1939.
With the (help of Dr. Howard Mc-
Ginnis, former member of the East
Carolina faculty and acting president
at one time, we have found the an-
swers to some unanswered questions
about the old wooden bucket.
Dr. McG-innis referred us to the
February 17, 1939 "Teco Echo" and
a sports column by Jack Daniels from
Wilmington called "Along the Side-
lines
According to tihe column, Jack Dan-
iels, sports editor of the "Teco Echo
and Johnnie Yavorski, sports editor
of the ACC paper, the "Collegiate
over at ACC, gave birth to the Bo-
hunk Trophy.
Quoting from Mr. Daniels' column:
"The 'Teco Echo' and the 'Collegiate'
will put up a beautiful, gorgeous,
grandacjous, splendiferous, colossal
(in fact it's pretty) trophy to he
respectfully presented to the school
(either ACC or ECTC) who wins any
athletic contest between the two
schools in a school year.
"We decided to name this trophy in
accordance with all it stands for, and
so we hereby christen the worthy
object of our affection, the BO-HUNK
TROPHY! Long may it live! (in our
possession)
And from a later issue on April 7,
Mr. Daniels explains in his column
r at the Bohunk Trophy is almost
com leted and will be presented to
the winner of a tennis match between
the two schools. He then writes, "As

from an outstanding personality in the history
of East Carolina College. We write with reft
ence to Dr. Howard J. McGinnis of Greenville
who served in various capacities at the
from 1927 until 1950.
The letter mentioned above was delivered
our office by Dr. McGinnis who admitted that
he was inspired by the discussion which we ran
in this column last week concerning the origin
lhe name of Gotten Hall. After reading our
umn. Dr. McGinnis undertook to compile the
lowing information on the origin of the names
of all the buildings on campus. We are hen
quoting a portion of the letter and summarizing
the remainder.
"The first building on the campus to be
named for individuals were the four won,
dormitories?Cotten, Jarvis, Fleming, and

Rhapsody Of Death
by Larry Parler
As Angels sang praises to the dead,
Devils laughed and danced with haste
With prongs of heat ready for
sinister's
Arrival at the judgment gates.
Angels ai. I Devils traveled with the
dead
On death-ridden paths toward
judgment polls,
While God and Satan conferred with
each other
Concerning eternity of all new souls.
Satan was pleading with all his might
That God would give him all,
But God was wise to Satan's plea?
said He:
"Many will fly and few will fall
Still on death's road Angels sang
While Devils made hatred fun?
For they knew that Father Satan
Would talk God out of at least one.
Just one the Devils wanted?
On beds of fire to make him prance,
To brand his soul with torture from
Hell;
One that God gave a chance.
Campus Couple Of The Week
Coffee Instead Of Water, Sue!
hy Pat Humphrey
An English class in spring quarter met in an English class that they
of 1953 was the meeting place of
Sue Worthington, senior, from La-
Grange, and Garland Tuton, a junior
from Whiteville.
"I sat behind Garland in Educa-

he was real cute. But he never know

Then God began the dividing of souls

started dating. Garland declares that
he was attracted by Sue because he
thought she was a pretty girl.
They have been dating each other
i5or two years, Ihut have only been
going steady for a year.
Movies, dancing, and viewing bas-
ketball games rate highly with this
couple. Garland participates OB swim-
ming and track events and Sue en-
joys watching him.
Last Christmas Eve, Garland was
eating wdth Sue's family. During the
course of the meal, Garland asked
for a refill on coffee. Sue hurried
to the kitchen and brought back the
coffee pot. After filling his cuip, she
discovered that the coffee had not yet
percolated, and his cup was full of
water.
Sue, a primary major, will finish
during the summer term of 1956. She
hopes to get a teaching position
somewhere in or hear Kinston. Gar-
land, a business major, will complete
his studies at the end of apring quar-
ter in 1956. Whatever this couple's
tfuture plans, they are wished much
luck and happiness.
"Gosh, I have over-cut my first period
class "I have two more cuts left in English, I
do want to take them before the quarter is over
"If only I can get this cut excused, I will be
right
These words and many others relating
cut system are heard on campus every day. As
the quarter draws to a close, many students
hurrying to "check" with their teachers the num-
ber of "cuts" that they have taken during each
subject.
This problem of the cut system has been
met in various different ways in the many
leges and universities throughout the country.
Many colleges have a system whereby all deans
list students have unlimited "cuts We bo
that in many ways this is to the student's advan-
tage. For a student who maintains high grade-
is normally a student who is mature enough in
his thinking not to exercise this right to an ex-
cess. Perhaps in the future this plan could be
studied more thoroughly here at East Carolina.
To study the campus opinion on this quest
of an unlimited cut system, the following studi
were asked their opinions on how they felt a sys-
tem of this type would affect East Carolina Col-
lege :
Dick Ivey, junior: "I feel that too much
emphasis is placed on 'cuts' at East Carolina Col-
lege. Some professors have even stated that if the
student cuts his class even one unexcused time.
his grade was lowered right there. I say let the
student's rrade determine the number of cuts. If
he can get the subject with a reasonable amount
of class attendance, let him do this. After all. we
aren't still in high school and the student is old
enough to know that if he must go to class to pass
the course, he will do it
Bill Slott, sophomore: "Yes, I think students
should be allowed unlimited 'cuts' provided they
are able to keep up with the standard set for the
course, but it is not to the student's advantage to
take cuts for no good reason whatsoever
Emily Boyce, senior: "I firmly believe that
an unlimited 'cut' system at East Carolina Col-
lege for all students would be exceedingly fool-
ish. Most of us here take our three or five cuts
as things stand now?what would we do with un-
limited cuts? I am afraid that some would take
advantage of this, whereas without unlimited
cuts, they would go to class and graduate accord-
ingly. East Carolina has been described as a

Co-Sponsor Valentine
Dance Last Saturday

were crowned King and Queen of
Hearts at the annual Valentine dance
Friday night. The event which was
sponsored jointly by the F. B. L. A.

Louis Clark, Day Students, for King;
and Jean Buchanan, Jarvis; Peggy
Ann Gay, Wilson; Janet Dawson, Cot-
ten; Lula Mayo, Day Students; and
Ann Webb, Fleming, for Queen.
The King and Queen were elected
by popular vote, and elections were
held last week in the student union.
The traditional colors of red and
white were used to carry out the
?olor scheme of the artnual Valentine
dance. Boys with their chosen Valen-
tines entered the dance floor thru a
large red heart with red streamers
as the inside of the heart.
Along the walls were big red hearts
with the familiar verse "Be My Val-
entine1 written across them. Stream-
ers of red and white descended from
the balcony toward the center of the
floor. Alt the center the streamers
were pulled up with a hoop giving
a chandelier effect.
During the intermission the ; rinces
and princesses were presented, and
they took their places in the royal
court around the throne of the King
and Queen. Following this, Charlie
Bedford and Jean Buchanan were
presented and crowned King and
Queen of Hearts.

As things stand now, there is a

once before in the 11 years of North

That was back in 1942 when Appa-

For sheer fun out on the road,
Chevrolet's stealing the thunder
from the high-priced cars!
Up to this year, maybe there were reasons for wanting
one of the higher-priced cars. If you demanded some-
thing really special in the way of driving fun, you
simply had to pay a premium to get it.
Not any more! The Motoramic Chevrolet has changed
all that. Who could wish for more excitement than the
new 162-h.p. "Turbo-Fire V8" delivers17 (For those
who do. 180-h.p. is optional at extra cost in all V8
models.) Chevrolet also offers the two highest powered
sixes in its field.
Come in and see how the Motoramic Chevrolet is
stealing the thunder from the high-priced cars!

From The New York Times Magazine
Nutshells Reveal Cores Of Good Books
The New York Time? Magazine,
said by many educated people to be
the best in the field, affords its read-
ers a variety of little "jewels" of
information. For instance, each issue
boasts a column on books that are,
n the opinion of the editors, well
worth reading. Under the heading,
"Treasure Chest little nutshells are
printed, containing the briefest and
mocst interesting synopses of a few
very good books. Some of the books
are old, some are not quite so old as
middleaged, an some are new. Fol-
lowing are a few book reviews we
lifted from t'he magazine:
THE VITAL THINGS Let us
be honest with youth and tell them
that there is no one magic formula
of education for war or peace, no
fruit of the tree of knowledge which,
swiftly eaten, can make us wise as
pods knowing good or evil. Even in
these critical days, when educated
persons are BO desperately needed,
the proce.? of education requires
time and work and striving. The
ability to think straight, some knowl-
edge of the past, some vision of the
future, some skill to do useful serv-
ice, some urge to fit that service into
the well-being of the community?
these are the most vital things edu-
cation must try to 'produce. If we can
achieve them in the citizens of our
land, then, given the right to knowl-
edge, and the free use thereof, we
shall have brought to America the
wisdom and the courage to match her
destiny. (Book: "Many a Good Cru-
sade by Virginia Gildersleeve, Mac-
Millan Co.)
THE HUMAN SITUATION . . .
Let us confess it: the human situa-
tion is always desperate. But today,
all the normal mischances of living
have been multiplied, a millionfold,
by the potentialities for destruction,
for an unthinking act of collective
suicide, which man's very triumphs
m science and invention have brought
about. In this situation the artist has
a special task and duty: the task of
reminding men of their humanity and
the promise of their creativity. (Book:
"In the Name of Sanity by Lewis
Mumford, Harcourt, Brace & Co.)
THE CIRCLE The eye is the
first circle; the horizon which it
forms is the second; and throughout
nature this 'primary figure is repeat-
ed without end. It is the highest
emblem in the cipher of the world.
St. Augustine described the nature
of God as a circle whose center was
everywhere and its circumference no-
where. We are all our lifetime read-
ing the copious sense of this first of
forms. One moral we have already
deduced in considering the circular
or compensatory character of every
human action another analogy we
shall now trace, that every action
admits of being outdone. Our life is
an apprenticeship to the truth that
around every circle another can be
drawn; that there is no end in na-
ture, but every end is always another
dawn risen on mid-noon, and under
every deep a lower deep opens. (Book:
"Essays, First Series by Ralph
Waldo Emerson, Houghton Mifflin
Co.)
