n of the faculty. The total at-
tendance was approximately 600.
The Cadets were in formal dress,
Sting of blue uniforms, white
rt. and black bow tie. The ladies
were attired in evening gowns.
The highlight of the ball was tine
crowning of the queen, Miss Kath-
arine Dismuke. All the candidates
were presented with their escorts

STUDENT UNION
The Social Committee, the S.G.A.
representation in programming at the
Student Union, is distributing a ques-
tionnaire among the student body,
hoping to get the desires of the
students concerning tihe recreation
program at the Student Union.
On the questionnaire are such
things as games you enjoy partici-
pating in and those you might like
to help Wach, new records you would
like purchased, and other things that
will lead to a bigger and better
recreation program in the Student
Union. Boyd Webb, chairman of the
Social Committee, has made assign-
ments to committeemen to distribute
the questionnaires within the dormi-
tories. The day students are request-
ed to stop by the office of the Stu-
dent Union and fill in the question-
naires.
The "Lost and Found" department
at the Student Union is bulging at
the seams. Students are asked to
stop by the office at the Student
Union and inquire about lost proper-
ty. A sale will soon be held, if the
burden is not relieved.
Informal dancing is held every Fri-
day night in the Lounge,

W.K.A.
During the monthly meeting of the
Woman's Recrreation Association, the
revised constitution was presented
and acceded by over fifty members
present.
The revisions were made in order
to keep in step with the growing
organization. The main revision was
the changing of the name of the or-
ganization to the Woman's Recrea-
tion Association, since its primary
purpose is to provide recreation for
all girls who are interested rather
than for just a few skilled athletes.
The duties of the vice president were
changed so that now these duties
include serving as intramural direc-
tor for all sports.
Spring sports include softball and
badminton. Twelve players will be
allowed on each Softball team and
these teams should be turned in to
Grace Smith (Fleming Hall) as soon
as possible.
Baptists
Several hundired young people are
expected to attend a Youth Rally at
Memorial Baptist Church Saturday
evening at 7:30. Guests will be from
district two which includes four coun-
ties of the Roanoke Association.
Ralph Lamm, Fan Green, B. S. U.

in charge of open house at the Bap-
tist Student Center at 9:00.

When we fsiiahed, this fellow held

was learning his readin writin and
arithmetic he could work to pay hie
way through this little college school.
Wal, Howard, he done decided to take
this offer and all of us felt sort of
ed to say a blessing before we com
menced to eat. So, we all bowed our
heads and shut up and Howard com-
menced to Bay, "Much obliged Wal,
I always lak to hear music while I
eat so Miss Joyce Lucille Smith she
done decided to play us a song on de proud 'cause what it wuz wuz a schol

About de time dat the song wuz

fellow up at de bar say, "Bartender,

was a little box car thing with a
woman driver in it and she done of-
fered to carry us anywhere that we
wuz going. I fink what it wux wux

hotel dat we wuz eatin' at. Now, Ma,
I tell you, at freach cream wux all
right, but dat pant called de Napoleon
?dat jest wont gH it!
We decided dat we wuz wantka' to

ap here. One of my buddies,
Jimmy Ferrell, he done seen Marilyn
Monroe in real-life person. And, Ma,
dat boy is so happy dat I don't fink
dat he will ever be de same again.
Wal, naturaHy, we all wux wantin'
to see Miss Monroe so Jimmy called
her up at de hotel where she wux
staying. Wal, Ma somehow Mia.
Monroe wont as happy to aaa us as
we wux to see her 'cause dey done

in fact, it wuz dat I ain't even never
heered of one. So, I sot dere and look-
ed close fer ahout a hour and I still
aint seen nuttin' but white ladies.
I aaw, Ma, wuz the bartender
giving dis fellow a little pink glass
of juice. Wal, Ma, I have been doing
a lot of studyin' on de subjict and I
finally decided dat what dis little
pink juice wuz wuz a pink lady!
Public School
Wal, we done decided to go out to
this little public school called Colum-
bia University. And, Ma. it wux 'bout
de biggest and purtiest graded school
dat I done ever seen
One of my buddies, Howard, was
interested in going to this little brick
We found out dat down de road a
little ways wuz a tomb where some
fellow in Hiatory had been buried.
I didn't never find out who it wuz
that was buried in the tomb, which
was called Grant's Tomb, but I have
done a lot of figuring and I have
finally decided dat who it wuz wuz
Grant!
One of the most biggest places
that we done gone to wuz the Umpire
State Building. Now, Ma, this place
was holding some largeness. It wuz
even bigger than Wright Building
down here in Greenville. We done
gone all the way up to the 102nd
floor on this new-fangled elevator
thing. After we done got to the top
to git hurt.
Record Making
It wuz up in this Umpire building
dat we done decided to make a rec
ord. They had some new-fangled ma-
chine there dat you could sing in or
talk in and it would put what it wuz
that you said on a record. So we all
got in that little boxike thing and
sung "You'll Never Walk Alone
Wal, Ma, after we finished the sing-
ing, the machine played the song
back to us. There wuz some people
sittin' around in the lobby there and
they heered our record, but I don't
f ink they liked it too hot. Anyway,
we had heard before we went in there
to make that record that some guy
called Roy Hamilton had already
made one on that song. I sho' wuz
sorry to hear dat 'cause I don't lak
to have nobody mock me.
Wal, Ma, we all decided to go out
to this little place across the river
called Staton Island. We got on this
little boat and rode all the way across
for five cents and, Ma, this boat
won't lak any boat I done ever seen
we went out on the porch up thar before 'cause we didn't even have to
and they had a long, tall fence all row across. In fact, I ain't seen no
around the top of that porch. I fig
ured that this wuz to keep everybody
from falling ott the side of the build-
ing 'eause a fall from way up on top
of that place might eaue. somebody
body using no paddles and I ain't
figured out 'til dis day just what it
wuz dat made dat boat go. I have
been doing a lot of research on it,
, though, and I think what it wuz wux
a ferry!
On our way across that little river
we done seen de Statute of Liberty
and, Ma, I wuz o thrilled 'cause I
had already heered dat she wuz car-
rying a torch fer me!
Relief At Last ,
Wal, Ma, it's jest about dmt time
fer us to pack up and git out of dia
place. While we wuz packing, die
maid done come in to clean up de
room. We tol' her dat we wuz leaving
and it seemed like it done made her
so happy. 'Course I think what it wux
wuz a relief!
I wuz some kinda' impressed wid
dis place, Ma, but I is also some
kinda' glad dat it is dat we is leaving.
Them folks done got ail my money,
Ma, but I feels lak I done learned
sumpin' from dis little town called
New Yawk. It sho' wux purty up here
when night done come 'cause dey
cut on all the lights and I ain't never
seen so many lights. I bet dey bad
more than a hundred lights up here
when night comes.
Wal, Ma, I reckon I better close
since it is dat we are about to leave
this- fair city. It sho' have been good
to me up here, but I will be some ?
kinda' glad to git back to the vilkg?
of Greenville. Write soon 'cause I
sho' is broke.

A Double Standard
The Jolly Roger was the scene of an unhappy
incident last" week. Quite a few college students
were involved one way or another. This may
prove to be onlv one of the examples in which
the female students involved were treated ac-
cording to East Carolina College regulations and
in which the male students weren't treated at all.
It's becoming obvious that the Men's Judiciary is
immobile. Judgment is passed on deliquent female
students as quickly as possible. The Woman a
Judiciarv meets every Tuesday night to deal with
cases of anv type which may arise. Some people
say it just is not fair because the women are dis-
ciplined and the men are not.
But there is more to the story; more to be
considered before completely damning the Men's
Judiciary. They do not have the specific power as
does the Women's Judiciary. A report to the
Men's Judiciary of a delinquent is their first
step. Someone must complain. Someone must
turn in a case to them for investigation. It is
obvious that if no report is filed, the Judiciary
can do nothing legally. If all the men were good
all the time, what would be the use of having a
Men's Judiciary? But is this true? So the way
things stand new, the women are reported and
me men are not. Is it the fault of the faculty.
We hope East Carolina College doesn't have a
double standard.
Time To Wake Op!
By the time the paper is in circulation the
SGA elections will be over and the school will
have a new group of leaders. It would not be
timely, then, to speak on the campaign or voice
opinions on the candidates. We can speak gen-
erally on situations concerning any campaigns
and elections, however.
We will be astounded if the student body
turns out to vote as it should. It has been dis-
gusting to learn of the lack of enthusiasm among
the students this year during campus elections of
everv sort. In most elections this year one hund-
red students or less voted for the side that won,
meaning that the majority has not had a voice
here during the entire year. Of course the ma-
jority can say nothing in protest, for they for-
feited their right to do so by disregarding
their duties to vote. If the students will vote
during the Thursday elections, a major change
will have been wrought.
Aren't the students here interested in the
Student Government Association? From the num-
ber who signed for candidacy in the elections we
can judge only that they are not. Several people
ran and were elected with competition. The 1954-
55 legislature was forced to make some nomina-
tions because several of the positions were not
contended for at all.
The officers of this year's Student Legis-
lature often worked under a handicap of lack of
enthusiasm; one coed often took her knitting to
the Wednesday night meetings and another rep-
resentative used the meeting time to catch up
on her sleep. The group, surprisingly enough, has
made a good record. With the new slate of of-
ficers and representatives, let's hope for some
enthusiasm that we haven't seen heretofore.
We aren't saying that the student body is
an aggregation of sleepers. On the whole we feel
that we have a good student body. We have letters
in our files from outsiders and members of the
faculty and administration complimenting the
student body. Facts speak distictly, however.
What happens to the progressiveness of East Ca-
rolina College unless the students become alert to
their duties toward government? Can't you see
that it is your duty? Duty to yourself and to your
fellow studenta.
No matter who next year's leaders are, they
will depend for success on the support and in-
terest of the student body. Make the next Stu-
dent Government Association the greatest in the
return
to New York! The
had were too many to tell about in
one column but we will try to give
our readers a review of some of the
highlights of the trip.
Eight of the staff members from
b e paper made the trip along with
four representatives from the annual
Niwff. We were chaperoned by How-
ard Reoks, a former student here
who is now teaching in the commer-
cial denartmen of the Washington,
N. C. High School. We left for the
city at 10:30 pjn. March 8 and spent
the week seeing the sights and at-
tending a press convention sponsored
by the Columbia Scholastic Press
Association el Columbia University.
Needless to say, we really had a good
time.
The social life of the group during
the week is reviewed quite amply in
a feature etory by J. W. Browning
as he writes a narrative home. So
in this column, we will stick to con-
vention news.
The convention was held for sev-
eral groups other than college stu-
dents. We only attended meetings
geared for college publications. The
meetings were planned to cover every
pha.e of work carried on with a col-
lege newspaper, so we went to the
sections we were most interested in
as individual staff members. The
groups all met in classroom buildings
of Columbia University. We heard
such speakers of authority in the
field of journalism as the Make-up
and News Editors of the NEW YORK
TIMES. The meeting we really en-
joyed most, however, was the one in
which our pap3" was critically scru-
tinized by a member of the Journal-
ism Department at the University.
The professor told us we were defi-
nitely out of the Teacher's College
Class and that all in all our paper
ems one of the best he had ever seen.
With all those kind words reaching
our sars, is it any wonder we liked
that particular meeting? We did
?ear something besides praise, how-
ever. He told us that our front page
make-up, could be much better; spe-
cifically, our headlines are often too
large for our one column stories.
How red is the editor's face?
On Friday morning we went over
to Low Memorial Library to see how
we placed in the judging of papers.
There are five places of honor on
the list of about five hundred papers
who were judged superior. The four
names at the tap of the list were
judged "Medalist
was "First Place and we looked no '
further for our name was third under
"First Place We really felt proud
to have placed seventh among the
Teacher's Colleges in the entire Unit-
ed States. Perhaps the group next
year will place in the upper four
bracket. The annual has not been
judged yet.
That was the convention! We do
want to mention the concluding event,
however, which was a fourcourse
lunchon held at the Waldorf-Astoria.
We were served elaborate food, if
food is classified that way. The re-
turn trip was begun at 3:30 on Sat-
urday afternoon when we left the Pic-
cadilly Hotel where we had bunked
for the week and as we said before
we got back to Greenville around six
Sundav morning.

letter waiting for us
back from one Ernestine
from Atlantic Christian
College in Wilson. She is associate
editor of "Thv Collegiate Atlantic
Christian's monthly newspaper.
She wrote us concerning the views
expressed in our column of March 8
concerning the ticket situation at the
ACC-ECC game at Wilson.
Part of t-e letter is as follows:
"This ticket situation to which I am
a thousand pushing,peo; le,
worth it. Some of us also
ring does not only apply to the
AC gym. It was also a really ridicu-
lous mess at East Carolina. Perhaps
you weren't one of those hundreds
crowded in the entrance of your beau-
tiful gym about 6:30 on the night of
February 19. If you were I'm sure
you can understand what I'm trying
to suggest Also, even if your gym
is four times the size of ours, it
seems that I remember it being peek-
ed at about 7:00 or shortly there-
after. Also the cheerleaders were

"I'd like to propose that
next year's basketball season, both
EC and AC get together in as friend-
ly a way as possible, and work out
solution to the problem of seat-
danced to i ing the student bodies. It
m that this might save a lot of
confusion and might even promote a
little better sportsmanship. As long
as we maintain the rivalry of the
present, we are certainly going to be
confronted by the problem. What do
you think?"
All we have to say in answer is
that ACC students who wanted to
see the game down here saw it with-
out any trouble, and the only reason
ohey had to stand in line so long was
because they arrived long before the
ticket office opened.
The point made in our column was
that ACC was supposed to have had
1,000 tickets on sale for the game,
and we have heard that the student
body consists of around six hundred.
So why didn't the ECC students have
second choice of the tickets left, or,
at least, just a few more than 75?
There will always be a friendly
rivalry between ACC and ECC and I
don't think it can be solved by just
finding a way to get all the students
a seat at the games. The rivalry that
exists between the two schools is one
which exists anywhere when they
are as closely located as ACC and
EOC.

Mozingo's question as stated above
in the quoted material of her letter

We came back right in the middle of

can't get a paper out to cover the

our duty to th students, but life is
that way, there are some situations
beyond our control. We just didn't get

for a Wednesday paper. By the time
we get this isue printed, the elections

Couple of the Week
Our couple for this week had a
very ordinary way of meeting. They
had seen each other around the cam-
pus for quite some time but finally
met on the post office steps. They
are Dan Singletary, who hails from
Elizabethtown, and Betty Sue Wil-
liams of Jackson, N. C.
They declared that they did not
impress each other at all upon meet-
ing. In fact, they only dated because
there was nobody else on campus to
date since it was during summer I
school. This was during the summer
of '53 and about once a month after
their meeting the two went fishing.
The facts being that Dan is a great
fisherman made Betty Sue determined
to impress him. He warned her about
getting so close to the bank but she
eedel his advice only by falling in.
As a result her hair was all stringy
and she remained wet until her
clothes dried on her.
They both recall with pleasure
their first big date which was the
June German in Rocky Mount.

incident happened. Betty Sue's par-

This Week's Movie
by Janet Hill
The movie, "Act of Love was
filmed in a Parisian setting and has
fairly well re-created the life of the
side streets, thus mixing vice and
virtue.
The hero (Kirk Douglas) is an
average G.I. and the French heroine
(Dany Robin) is a naughty girl try-
ing to be nice. It is toward the end
of World War II that Kirk and Dany
meet in Paris. Kirk tries to be friend-
lv in the old American way, but
Dany says no. So Mr. Douglas asks
for her hand in marriage. While
waiting the approval of their mar-
the dormitory with so many things
he got the idea that Betty Sue was
being shipped and naturally he was
worried. Soon he learned that her
parents were only taking her summer
clothing home.
This couple especially enjoys dan-
cing but they have so many other
common interests tr.at they enjoy do-
ing many things together.
Dan came to college in '47 but soon
went into tihe navy. Then in the win-
ter of '53 he returned to college. Both
Dan and Betty are seniors. Dan is a
business major and Betty Sue is a
primary major. These two are being
practical. They say that only after
graduation will they think more
about the future.

released by Mr. Lloyd Bray this
week:
Seniors up for graduation In

caps and gowns in the Stadent

ing caps and gowns will be May

already been taken care of in the

Students who have previously
graduated but plan to receive their
degrees at the May exercises
should also place their orders for
caps and towns now.
For several years the girls have been v.
ing for drink machines in their dormitories. At
the present time there are four drink machi
in Slay dormitory and a vender machine v
nabs and candy. Ragsdale Hall has two dr
machines and a vender machine with nabs and
candy.
There is likely many reasons why the admii
istration has not installed these machines in
grirls' dormitories. The Dean of Women was ca
upon for comment on the situation and we v
told that she was not on duty and could not t
time to discuss it. We called the treasurer of
college who referred us to Miss White. We bel.
that if a group could get together and discuss
these conflictions a remedy could be reached
sidering the problem.
At the present time the girls either ha
go to the filling station or the Soda shop wl
ever they want a drink. Bottles have accumuli
in many rooms as a result of this. If the g
had a central location to take the bottles, sue
crates placed at the back doors, this prol
could be eliminated to a great extent.
It seems that a solution could be reached
this problem. A large majority of the girl
dents on campus have discussed this problen
voiced their opinion that they would be v
to compromise to almost any extent to have ti
machines installed.

UNDERWOOD
by J. W. Browning
East Carolina's golf team has been
steadily practicing for the last three
weeks as they prepare to defend their
North State title, which they won
handily last season.
The local golfers have dominated
the circuit since their entrance into
the conference in 1948. They have
failed only once in their last eight
attempts to win the North State
Conference championship. Elon's
fighting Christiana were loop champs
in 1950 for the only time any team
except the Pirates have won it since
the latter5 entrance into the con-
ference.
Back for another year for the Pi-
rates' links squad are: Claude King,
Pat Hunt, Harry Rainy, and Fred
Sexton. Two newcomers who have
high hopes of landing a berth on the
squad are John Rainy and Tommy
Gravitte.
King, a senior from Wilmington
who plays at the fullback tpost dur-
ing football season, is one of the
leading power-drivers on Coach
Howard Porter's squad. He won the
individual title in the conference last
season. At the end of the regulation
3G-oole tournament at Greensboro
last season, King was tied with Don
Smith of Eion. On the following day
the two engaged in an 18-hole play-
off. Eton's Smith was hopelessly
outclassed by the steady and perfec-
tive strokes of King as the latter
won handily.
The Pirates won the team title also
as all the golfers combined their
talents and brought both divisional
titles back to Greenville.
With four lettermen returning, this
year's squad should be as strong as
last seaon's aggregation. The locals
have eight conference matches and
they already set their sights on a
successful defense of the crown. With
such experienced veterans back from
last yeaT, the locals should be able
to form a strong nucleus with the
newcomers seeing plenty of action.
Bud Tennis Team
To Meet Wolfpack
by Neil King
Three returning lettermen and one
highly-regarded freshman will make
up the nucleus of this year's East
Carolina tennis team. Returning are
J. W. Browning of Enfield; Frazier
Bruton and Dallas Fosque of Khv
ilora The newcomer is Maurice Ev-
erette of Robersonville.
The Pirate racketeers, under new
coach Ray Martinez, are expected to
do well in singles matches, although
they will be somewhat weaker than
the team of a year ago.
Eai Carolina opens.its 1955 sched-
ule here against North Carolina State
College on A:ril 1.
Bruton and Everette are struggling
for the number one position, while
either Browning or Fosque could take
ovr i the number three slot. Fresh-
men Gill Underwood of Clayton, Ed-
die Dennis of Durham, and George
Bur'on of Rocky Mount are looking
very good and could possibly take
over any of the veterans' jobs.
V: the outset, it looks as if all six
layer are practically equally bal-
anced with no one player holding a
ig edge over the other; therefore,
the Bucs should pick up many points
an the strength of their third, fourth
and fifth position.

by Neil King
Bob Penley, veteran outfielder for
the Bucs baseball team, is In the
Sportlite this week- Bob, a junior
this year, has been a .steady perform-
er for the Pirates' cause the pa?t
two seasons, and is looking forward
to roaming the outer garden once
again this season. According to the
well-groomed outfielder, his best sea-
son was his first, even though he
warmed the bench. He hit .421 tvat
season and really had a field day
against Guilford. His first time up
he tripled, and followed that with a
double and a single. His fourth time
at bat, he walloped one up against
the center field fence, but it was
caught. No matter, though, for two

runs scored. He batted in six runs
that day.
Last season, Bob said that he
couldn't even beg more than one hit
a ball game. His average was way
off par, but then, none of last year's
Pirates had much of an average to
brag about, even though the team I
did pretty good in the standings.
Bob is 21 years old, 5-10, and
weighs 170. After graduation he's
going into the Air Force, and will
make it a career if he likes it well
enough.
Penley graduated from Altamahaw-
ossipee in 1952 and came to school
here because they offered an AF-
ROTC program. He played legion ball
with Burlington as an infielder dir-
intr the 1950 and 1951 seasons. Until
he came to the Pirates, he had never
played any ouitofield at all, but seems
to be holding his own, and we know
that he'll continue to do so.

ing better-tasting Lucky just before being shot from cannon. Luckies are
going great guns everywhere. The reason for their booming popularity ?
simply this: Luckies give you better taste. They taste better, first of all,
because Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is toasted
to taste better. "If 8 Toasted" -the famous Lucky Strike process-tones up
Luckies' light, mild, good-tasting tobacco to make it taste even better
cleaner, fresher, smoother. Enjoy yourself when you smoke. Have a little

We are not on the brink of a major
war in Asia, Mr. France said, basing
hie statement on interviews and con-
versations in official Washington.
War is not imminent, he said, because
Russian leaders do not wish a conflict

any of the old military alliances, he
.said, ha.? brought a 'new wave of
thinking" among member nations and
has modified old ideas of natienal

He also stressed new economic op-

stand against the ignorance which
breeds misunderstanding.
Mr. Monsen drew hearty laughter

the causes of much of the distress
and unrest in the East, Dr. Yap
explained.
Dr. Yap pointed out that if the
United States were cut off from the

He cited the beneficial and inspir-
ing effect on the thinking of Asiatic

toward the Philippines. Tremendous
prestige has resulted for the United
States, he said.

East Carolina Players
Present Three Act Play
"Rumpetetifclsikiti a three act play,
will be given by the East Carolina
Playhouse, for the children of the
county and city, in the College Thea-
tre, March 28-31.
"Rumelstitlskin" i& a play of in-
trigue, with a subtle philosophy,
teaching that greed can nevei master
this world.
The play's plot is one which ha
always delighted both children and
adults. Runup elstiltskin wishes a
King's baby to put in his pot, so
that he may rule the hearts of men;
illing them so full of greed that
they will destroy each other, thereby
leaving the whole world to himself.
Looking over the earth from his hill-
top, he discovers a miller's daughter
who will win a Prince for her husband
if he can spin straw into gold. When
the King orders her actually to spin
the gold, she is left alone in despair.
Rumpel appears magically, offering
to spin the gold for her if he will
give him her first child. In no time
the straw is gold.
When the child Ls born. Rumpel
appears to claim it, but the miller's
daughter persuades hian to give her
another chance. He offers her one
chance to keep the child?if she can
guess his name. Strangely enough
the girl guesses Runnpel's name and
he flies to pieces with rage.
Dr. Withey, advisor to the East
Carolina Players, will direct "Rum-
petetitlsldn Merle Kelly, who has
had previous experience in acting and
in directing, will serve as student
director.

There's even more to
Chevrolet styling
than meets the eye!
This ia beauty with a bonus . . . for Chevrolet
styling is designed to add safety and comfort
while you drive, and to return greater value
when you trade.
Truly modern lines are shaped by usefulness. You
can see what we mean in the deep crystal curve of
Chevrolet's Sweep-Sight windshield a dramatic
style note, certainly, but one that stems from the need
for wider, safer vision. Or take high-set taillights?
they add to the impressive length of line . . . but
they are up where they can be seen for safety's sake.
The smart louvers across the hood aren't just dec-
oration . . . they mark the intake for the High-Level
ventilation system for cleaner, fresher air. And the
whole shape of the body?its lowness, the dipped beh
line?is merely a reflection of a lowered center of
gravity, the added stability.
This is truly functional styling that serves you
better every mile, and preserves its value against the
distant day when you trade. This is Body by Fisher
?another Chevrolet exclusive in the low-price field.
Come in and let us demonstrate that this new Chev-
rolet is just as exciting to drive as to look at!
