Responses to one question about nological and chemical warfare showed, for the most part, -mal ignorance. These two agents of mod- ern warfare are more insidious and horrible, more sinister and denioral- ;zim than a hydrogen bomb. Ignor- rice of their potential destructive- nesa increases their danger many- fold. A misunderstanding: a' out the ef- fectiveness o�f the "A" or "H" bomb was almost unanimous. Many did not recognize r e symp- toms of radiation sickness, nor did they have any comprehension of how o decontaminate themselves should they he exposed to radioactivity. Most of the questions were se- lected because the answers ave been. widely ablicized. The effective; of nuclear weapons has been in the news almost daily. The information has been well circulate with the lope t' at familiarity would help dis- pel some of the fear that accompanies the threat of such a destructive force.

The Sleeping Majority A recent voluntary meeting of the students of East Carolina College certainly made the strik- ing example that East Carolina students lack initiative and interest in the affairs of the school. The purpose of this meeting was to install the incoming officer? of the Student Legislature. Out of the approximate enrollment of 2500 at East Carolina we would say that approximate- ly 50 students were present for the meeting. If the students showed a sincere interest in the work of their student government, Austin Audi- torium would have been filled to capacity. Just where this lack of spirit begins is an unsolved question. It appears to be a routine fac- tor for the majority of students to just go to class, do their studies and have their own pleas- ure. However, there is much more to getting a true college experience. While the administration and the student government strive diligently in trying to promote a well-rounded education pro- gram at East Carolina College many students continually ignore the fact. Regardless of how earnestly the administration and SGA work in trying to promote a good program is will never reach its maximum until the full cooperation of all students is guaranteed. Another factor that we would like to call attention to is that some students continually gripe about various incidents connected with the school, yet they fail to realize that a little inter- est on "their part could be most beneficial. No student at East Carolina is of such a minority that his opinion fails to count. As retiring SGA president Wade Coper pointed out as he stepped down from his position, the purpose of the student government is to serve the masses and the indi- vidual. Individuals are the roots of all dealings made by the students and administrative officials of East Carolina College. This publication is fully awrare of the hap- penings of the student government and it is a seldom occurrence that students not on the legis- lature make their appearance before the body. If individuals or groups have suggestions for any improvements in SGA they should feel free to contact the necessary persons and they would certainly be glad to discuss them with you. The same is true with the administration. As President Messick pointed out in his talk to the students on April 13, if it were not for the students here there would be no need for an ad- ministration.�J. S. Live On The Weekends Wade (Ooper came into office last year by a slim margin. There were on campus who thought little his chances of promoting good relationships as head of the student was no secret that the poli- icians who gathered in Flanagan on �a esday nights fell into two dis- . � camps.

This attractive brunette is a Borne Economics major. .Although Maidired had decided that she was going to Meredith she was drawn to ECC. This came about mainly through her attending high school day here and feeling the friendliness of tali campus. Also, she liked the many sP�ts activities she found here. As a counselor to the freshmen during hwr sophomore year, Maidred began to assume her role as a leader. The Spring before she went on Spring Retreat with fellow Y members to Lake View Shores. Then, during her sophomore year, Maidred served as social chairman for the Y. She en- joyed these activities very much and during her Junior year she served as president of the Y. Therefore, she served on the interreligious council last year and was a member of the SGA. She truly enjoyed helping plan Religious Emphasis Week, she stated. While at ECC Maidred has attend- i -1 �. mmenue Baptist Church and has been a member of the B. S. U. hast year she served as secretary of her Sunday school class. 'n addition to the above activities, Maidred is 8 member of the Home Economics Club. In her sophomore year she served as social chairman f r this organization. This year as ,i marshal, Maidred declares she has met many wonderful people. Also, bhi year she' hag a self-help job as rmitory hostess in Fleming.

In an All of us look forward to Friday because to most of us it means that another weekend has arrived. The weekend is a time for pleasure, re- laxation and freedom from books and school worries. The weekends are all of those things�except on the highways. In 1954, 13,980 persons were killed and 678,000 were injured in weekend acci- dents, according to figures compiled and released by the Traveler Insu-ince Companies. Thirty- nine per cent of the deaths and 35 per cent of the injuries were recorded on Saturdays and Sundays in 1954. Excessive speed was the most dangerous driving mistake in 1954, as it has been in pre- ceding years, killing 2,380 persons. The 1953 total was 13,780. Drivers under 25 years of age were involved in more than 24 per cent of 1954's fatal accidents, although they constitute only about 14 per cent of the total of all drivers. Weekend crashes accounted for 13,890 killed and 678,000 injured. The 1953 weekend record was 15,800 killed and 800,000 injured. The Trav- elers Insurance Companies also reports that 39 per cent of the deaths and 35 per cent of the injuries occurred on Saturdays and Sundays last year, with more occurring on Saturday. One good reason for this is that more oars are travel- ing the highways on Saturdays than on any other daj. There is another important feature which sets this day apart from the others. For too many people, Saturday night is a time when drinking and driving are combined. No one knows how many traffic accident are caused by drinking irivers, but everyone knows it is a major prob- tem. Messick spoke to the pitifully j number who attended I i in that infor- �� mal manner, the president spoke ly and directly to the "stu- j dents We wish every member of ! the stude.it body could have heand ' him. "A leader said lr. Meai ick, "must � -iff hack one.

The student government president of several years ago who informed Dr. Messick that he had "the inter- ests of the students at heart told, just as we are continuously being told, that the president and bis fellow administrators also have he interests of the .students at heart If they didn't, Dr. Messick ssys, the school wouldn't exist in �J e first place. He added that the � has our interests at heart when it pays for three-fifth of our edu- � � on. Firmly speaking, the chief said past year's officers had done a good jo but that they hadn't reeM bed perfection. If they had, there wouldn't be anything left for others to do. On the cheating situation, Dr. Mas- sisk took the view that "social dis- approval" of that lowly act on the � of the majority of u-s who are si least "half honest" would clear be situation up. It is undoubtedly true that those otf us who are against �heating will have to stop smiling at hOse who don't care if we want to put a stop to it. We repeat, it's a shame that the president's speech, the most sincere � ken endeavor we have heard in a long time, was heard ty so few of ?hose it was meant for. INCIDENTALLY!

Mr. Herbert Carter took the 11 boys and orga- nized them as a cooperative band. I he and then elected him as music director and Bob Lee as manager. This 'irst band had no money and no equipment, which includes stands, music, PA system, � trailer, and dress coats, but they had a dream which � became a reality. After the first three or four dances, the band mem- bers took their salaries and bought some dance equipment. In 1948 they bought all the equip- ment of the Bob Berman Band in Wilmington and the band became known as the Bob Lee Orchestra. The personnel of the first band was Mr. Herbert Carter, Bob Lee, Leon Jack- son, Bob Mays (vocalists), Bill Ad- cock, Jack White, L. M. Lancaster, Millard Ward Bob Gaskins, Don Ad- cock, Maurice Bunat, Shelton Moore, and Joe Laasitsr. The Bob Lee Orchestra began an extensive advertising and publicity campaign, and became known as the "Best Band in Tarheel Land In I960 the Boh Lee Orchestra made numerous recordings of their arrange- ments which were sold to the students here on campus. I(t was during this year tat Mr. Carter resigned his position as music director because of a conflict in his schedule. Charlie Kluttz took over as music director and filled this position until his grad- uation fall quarter of this year.

One of the interesting things Jimmy Alexander told us about the Colle- gians concerned particulars of their constitution. The constitution is com- posed o�f the rules the members abide by. Also the power) of the music director are listed, and rules COi reining an absence from t e job, and tardiness. All members of the Collegians must be at practice ses- sions. Every quarter if the occasion arises there are try-outs for positions. All students have the right to try out for �try position in the band. A person qualifies if there Is a two-thirds ap- proval vote of the rest of the band. And any member can be voted out by a three-fourths vote of the band. Jimmy Alexander says of the Col- legians, "We are not recognized by a specific style such as Ray Anthony and Glenn Miller, but we have a style of our own. And we play the music and styles of all the bands At intervals the Collegians have house cleaning and they bake out all their old numbers and store them for future use. Tour Appearances Music played by Collegians is heard There has been for many years some qm tions regarding the qualifications ani ftttribul necessary to become marshals. It is stated in th handb ok. "The scholarship of marshals shall att in an average of not less than 43 All mars, tie elected bj a vote of the student body Jt is our -pinion that the position of marshal should be such a distinguished and bonoral mi that th� re should be no doubts or bl ishes concerning those who are marshals. It been brought t i our attention that one of the marshals handed in her name after the preacril d adline, but u is still placed on the ballot a now is a marshal. Vet, another student, a student just as capable a- this one previously refer' to, handed her name in a day late . . . but not to the same person. And, therefore, her name did not appear on the ballot and she is not now a marshal. Students, I ask you, is this justice? "No student will carry more than twelve points so says the Student Handbook. It I been brought to our attention that many of the campus officers and marshals are carrying excess over the standard twelve points. In on to enable a targe majority of students t int i campus activities this point system was � tablished. Hut what good is it doing .n black and white if it is not followed and enforced? It is up to those students holding over twelve points I . ither give up their offices to those students who could have more time to work efficiently, or dl from some other extracurricular activity. It is not written in the by-laws of the ( stitution, but is it right that a freshman should hold the office of marshal? This is not meant an offensive manner to any freshman at t time. East Carolina is known for not having class distinction; this is a virtue. Yet, it seems that a position as marshal should be an honor that would be better endowed to an upper-da man. This is a clause that should be written into the c nstitution in order to clarify further m understanding. Reprinted from March 19, 1954 Pot Pov by Emily Iiyce) 'Ho be a college marshal has always b considered an honor So the 1953 Buccai writes among the pictures of that year's E Carolina marshals. There did not seem to be an overwhelming amount of enthusiasm to join the ranks of mar- sh ds this year. The time for the names to be in us extended by the SGA. due to the lack of can- didates. Announcements were read at Hous- meetings telling of the extended time period ami urging those students desiring to run to hand in their names. Aren't people interested in being arshals? When approaching some of the forme) marshals on the general subject, they said that it was a large job, an expensive one and they even w nd red if now the honor attached to the posi- tion v. as as paramount as it should be due to the present qualifications. A student must maintain an average grade of �. twenty-five persons are required to sign the application, and she must win at the polls on g nt i i election day. At first glance the qualifications do not 1 too easy. But a student must maintain a 3 a age to even stay in college. It's a relatively sin matter to round up 25 people to sign an applica- tion and actually the first 16 names on the ballot h ve the be t chance to be elected�or maybe the voting is strictly a popularity contest. Are the qualifications too low to denote the desired honor attached to the position? Has the East Carolina marshal position lost its meaning?

From view- ing sights on other campuses it seems that aveb apparel is permissible at of er colleges. Some een. g �s far avs to al'ow the girls to wear such while off-campus. Girls are particularly concerned over having to wear raincoatg or skirts to the gytm or tennis courts. It is our belief that shorts or the like would not be nearly as disitracbing as bare knees appearing out of the coat every step. With spring and hot weather approaching it beconit quite a bit. uncomfortable for a coat. ft girls are wearing such apparel in the dorms it becomes quite burden- some for them to have to change clothes every lame they have an errand on back campus. Local Greenville girls vary fre- quently come on campus with peddle pushers, dungarees, or shorts, espe- cially the girls who ride horses on our campus. Also during the summer, girls who are up for music camps often make this tyipe of clothing their major outfit. Certainly if anyone is to be allowed to wear shorts or the like it should he the girls who make East Carolina College their home while in school. We will not be so broad minded as to state that girls should be al- lowed to make this their major out- fk, T is is far from our opinion. Cot major plea is that girls merely be permit ed to wear shorts, paddle �i r�r Bermuda shorts in com- g to and from the gym and in running errands on back campus. We, as a representative of the girls at East Carolina College, believe that dances, but at outstanding events all over North Carolina. The Shriner's Convention, the Azalea Festival, the Harvest Festival, and the President's Ball in Elizabeth City are some of the festival occasions where they have played. Alto this year they have played for d-ances at N. C. State College, Wake Forest and at the Casino ami Recreation Center at Nags Head. Each year the Collegians re- ceive more calls than they can fill to play at high school Junior-Seniors all over the state. Outstanding soloists with the Col- legians since their beginning in 1947 and up to this year are Bob Mays, Bernie Ham, Larry Parlor, Don and Bill Adcock, Bob Lee, Ed Benson, Bill Galsgon (arranger), Bob Craft, I . B. Starling, R. B. Starling, Char- lie Klutz, Clyde Strong, and Frank Hammond. Cold Music Jimmy tells otf their coldest if not the most amusing event, which hap- : ened at one of the Azalea Festivals. It was so cold that the band played in overcoatg and gloves. The saxo- phone pads were completely frozen and some were even broken because of the extreme weabher. This May come Commencement time seven members of the Collegians will be graduating. There is going to be a definite problem of replacing the members who are finishing. "But, says Jimmy Alexander the Oolle- giana have survived more difficult Extensive civil defense programs are woe- fully lacking in too many places in the United States. In a great many small communities civil defense projects are completely non-existent. The fundamentals of civil defense are extremely vital, today more than ever before. The project of civil defense is one which a Government class has undertaken here at East Carolina College is cooperation with Dr. K. Stokes this quarter. Hats off to these interested students and the faculty advisors for promoting this vital and timely project. Every member of the preaenl rganizatioD is voluntarily enrolled to learn basic- civil defense tactics. This program is designed to train students at East Carolina to know what to do and how to do it in cases of emergency. Such a project is insurance to each of these indi- viduals and to others. It may serve one day a a protective device frighteningly desirable. This program also aims at encouraging students to take special training in civil defense going on further into such special devices as the Warden branch of community defense. There is a great deal of work necessary to promote such a program. Television and radio programs are planned in the near future. The students in this unit on campus are interested md have already done some excellent work in civil defense. The program actually is still in the blueprint stage, but with willing students and interested faculty, the project should grow a great deal. The student committee working with Dr. Stokes have done a fine job as coordinators. If anyone is interested in obtaining more infor- mation concerning the East Carolina unit in civil defense, please contact Dr. Stokes of the Social Studies Department. the majority of female students here would use wise judgment in wearing problems in the past and as l�fg as shorts, etc if only permitted want E.CC. gya here the Collegians will them at necessary times. be here as a band "Improving the Women's Day Room" was the main topic of the Women Day Students meet- ing held March 21, 1955. The group decided to send a note of appreciation to Dean Ruth White and Mr. Duncan for their recent help and advice in furthering some badly needed improvements for the Women's Day Room. As a result of their interest, the old furniture is being re-upholstered and covered, and plans are underway for further replacement of the floor and painting the walls. It was decided that Venetian blinds would be bought with the money left in the treasury. � I sft" ?he H 1 I PkQ TWO � ��-� EastCawlinian Editorial Comment Published by the Students of East Carolina College Greenville, North Carolina Name changed from TECO ECHO November 7, 1952.

Although Maidred had decided that s e was going to Meredith she was drawn to EOC. This came about mainly through her attending high school day here and feeling the friendliness of this campus. Also, she the many sporta activities she found here. As a counselor to the freshmen during her sophomore year, Maidred began to assume her role as a leader. i - ring before she went on Spring K with fellow Y members to View Shores. Then, during n-r t i v The Sleeping Majority A recent voluntary meeting of the students 0f ; arolina College certainly made the strik- example that East Carolina students lack initiative and interest in the affairs of the school. The purpose of this meeting was to install the incoming officer; of the Student Legislature. Out of the approximate enrollment of 2500 a: East Carolina we would say that approximate- ly ! idents were present for the meeting. If the students showed a sincere interest in the work of their student government, Austin Audi- - rium would have been filled to capacity. .lust where this lack of spirit begins is an unsolved question. It appears to be a routine lac- tor for the majority of students to just go to class, do their studies and have their own pleas- ure. However, there is much more to getting a true college experience. While the administration and the student government strive diligently in trying to promote a well-rounded education pro- gram at East Carolina College many students continually ignore the fact. Regardless of how earnestly the administration and SGA work in trying to promote a good program is will never reach its maximum until the full cooperation of all students is guaranteed. Another factor that we would like to call attention to is that some students continually gripe about various incidents connected with the school, yet they fai to realize that a little inter- est on their part could be most beneficial. No student at East Carolina is of such a minority that his opinion fails to count. As retiring SGA president Wade Coper pointed out as he stepped down from his position, the purpose of the student government is to serve the masses and the indi- vidual. Individuals are the roots of all dealings made by the students and administrative officials of East Carolina College. This publication is fully aware of the hap- penings of the student government and it is a seldom occurrence that students not on the legis- lature make their appearance before the body. If individuals or groups have suggestions for any improvements in SGA they should feel free to contact the necessary persons and they would certainly be glad to discuss them with you. The same is true with the administration. As President Messick pointed out in his talk to the students on April 13, if it were not for the studeMts here there would be no need for an ad- ministration.�J. S. Live On The Weekends All of us look forward to Friday because to most of us it means that another weekend has arrived. The weekend is a time for pleasure, re- laxation and freedom from books and school worries. The weekends are all of those things�except on the highways. In 1954, 13,980 persons were killed and 678,000 were injured in weekend acci- dents, according to figures compiled and released by the Travelers Insurance Companies. Thirty- nine per cent of the deaths and 35 per cent of the injuries were recorded on Saturdays and Sundays in 1954. Excessive speed was the most dangerous driving mistake in 1954, as it has been in pre- ceding years, killing 2,380 persons. The 1953 total was 13,780. Drivers under 25 years of age were involve1 ir more than 24 per cent of 1954's fatal accidents, although they constitute only about 14 per cent of the total of all drivers. Weekend crashes accounted for 13,890 killed and 678,000 injured. The 1953 weekend record was 15,800 killed and 800,000 injured. The Trav- elers Insurance Companies also reports that 39 per cent of the deaths and 35 per cent of the injuries occurred on Saturdays and Sundays last year, with more occurring on Saturday. One good reason for this is that more cars are travel- ing the highways on Saturdays than on any other day. There is another important feature which �eta this day apart from the others. For too many people, Saturday night is a time when drinking and driving are combined. No one knows how many traffic accidents are caused by drinking drivers, but everyone knows ijs a major prob- lem. came into office last by a slim margin.

"Improving the Women's Day Room" WM the main topic of the Women Dav Students meet- ing held March 21. 1955. The group decided to send a note of appreciation to Dean Ruth Whit1 and Mr. Duncan for their recent help and advice in furthering some badly needed improvements for the Women's Day Room. As a result of their interest, the old furniture is being re-upholstered and covered, and plans are underway for further replacement of the floor and painting the walls. It was decided that Venetian blinds would be bought with the money left in the treasury. Bl i �- u r Ei B, THURSI'AY.

The squad that wins the matches next week will be the team that wins the North State tennis championship! Leading the locals into their cham- pionship attempts next week at High Point will he Maurice Everette and Frazier Bruton. East Carolina's squad started the season with only two lettermen and now Bruton is the lone remainder. J. W. Browning, the only other letter- man and number four man for the Pirate?, was forced to discontinue his varsity participation due to a back injury. He had compiled a 2-1 record in the young conference sean. Sport Lite by by Neil King Richard "Brother" Monds, graduate of Dunn High School in 1951, is in this week's Sport Lite spot lite. While attending Dunn High, Dick now 23 years old, played four years of football at the guard post and three years of baseball as a catcher. Monds' senior year there proved most prosperous for him as he was the first Dunn lad ever to make All- State as a footballer. The same year he was awarded the annual Blocking Trophy for his efforts as a lineman. To cap these two honors, he was c osen to play in the annual Shrine Bowl game staged in Charlotte be- tween the best high school football players in North and South Carolina. In baseball, he was never accorded such honors, but he more than held down the first-string catcher's posi- tion for his final three years at Dunn. After graduation, "Brother" joined the Navy and played baseball for two years while serving aboard the USS Nereus, a submarine tender, in San Diego, Calif. The Navy thought enough of his ability to play football to pull him off the Nereus during the pigskin season to perform for Commander Submarine Force, Pacific Fleet, and later for Commander Training Command, Pacific Fleet. During the past football season, Monds steadily pulled himself up along the ranks, and by this past spring training season, he was run- ning first-string guard for Coach Boone's forces. Currently, Dick is playing baseball, and as a catcher is second only to veteran Bill Cline. Alter Cline's graduation, Monds will he the most likely candidate to fill his shoes. "Brother" will be a sopho- more next year and is sure to see quite a bit of action on both the gridiron and the diamond. Monds is married and is the proud pop of two children. Beth, the oldest, is two years old, and is followed by Richard Jr who is one year old, East Carolina Tracksters Thrash Newport News Set by Commodore Caswell In their initial meet of the year, I for the first three places. The 220 East Carolina's tracksters defeated a strong Newport News Apprentice SPORTS ECHO by Billy Arnold aggregation in Norfolk, 69.6-61.4 on April 7. Last year's North State champs carried their banner high throughout the meet. Led 'by "Injun Jim" Hen- derson, the Bucs showed their strength by receiving points in every event except the relay and two mile. Henderson, former Virginia high school star, set a new Apprentice school record for the low hurdles. He also tied the school record in the 100 with a terrific 9.9 time. Further aiding in the win, he clinched first place in the 220 and high hurdles. 3ta the field events, the ECC track- sters took a clean sweep of the javelin throw with Eddie Dennis leading the way and Toppy Hayes and Dave Gravitz gaining second and third places, respectively. Versatile Toppy added another accomplishment to his strong of athletic talentg by winning second place in the pole vault. It was Hayes' first try at the event. Bobby Perry and Bobby .Patterson gathered in four points by taking second and third positions in the broad jump. Louis Slade of ECC took third place in the shop, Dave Gravitz second in the discus. The Pirates also received points as a five-way tie resulted in the high jump. The strong Buccaneer runners took first places in every tr$ck event ex- cept the two mile. The 100 yard dash was a clean sweep as Henderson, again featured Henderson and Perry as the big' guns, coming in first and second. Charlie Bishop took first place honors in the 440 with teammate Boh Maynard finishing second. Cliff Buck outclassed everyone on the track to take first places in both the 880 and one mile events. Besides the aforementiond, East Carolina has many tough contenders in Joe Wooten, Milton Collier, Emo Boado, Bob Gay, Don Ricketts, Wil- lard Roberts, Dave Evans, O'Brien Edwards, and Garland Tuton.

Teach- ers College, 5-0, 1 ounced back in the second seven-inning contest to solidly trounce the visitors, 1,3-0. Freshman Charlie Russell allowed only one hit in the second game. His no-hit bid was spoiled in the fifth inning by Montclair pinch hitter JiaL.j , , � ! torious. Goldwater, who rai.ped a single. Rus- sell had masterful control, striking East Carolina freshman Tommy Jenkins, one of the outstanding new athletes in this section of the state, was injured in a disastrous auto ac- cident during the Easter holidays. The former Greensboro high school ace is resting in the Chapel Hill hos- pital in critical condition after being struck by a car traveling at 65 miles per hour. Jenkins, a husky 6-3 forward on the Pirate Freshman basketball team, was a leading rebounder and pro- lit ic scorer. He led the squad in scoring and was tabbed during the early 1154-55 season as sure-fire var- sity material. As baseball season rolled around fhLs year, (Tommy exchanged his horts and tennis shoes for diamond � arh and began to patrol the outfield for Coach Jim Mallory. "Tom was a great high school ball player com- mented Coach Mallory. "He pitched and played a good third base at Greensboro The Buccaneer baseball mentor continued, "Jenkins is a natural-bom hitter. He has what the professionals call 'quick-wrist action " The entire student body of East Carolina College is in Big Tom Jer- kins' rooting section as he meets i hi greatest battle�and if such a (contest is won on courage and de- termination, our boy will be vic- Elon College will bring some of the flashiest mound talent ever seen on the Campus field. Doc Mathis' .rew boasts of "the best pitching staff in the South and indications thus far this year seem to verify the truth of that statement. Elon's line-up includes four (no less) All-State pitchers who have been setting the league aflame. Lu- ther Conger, Sherrill Hall, Hank Ham rick, and Charlie Swisegood form the strongest threat the Greenville boys are likely to face. All four gain- ed experience in semi-pro ball in Canada and Hamrick pitched for the United States Army.

Saturday's big tilt between the Pi- ral"s and the Fighting Christians of Western Carolina has taken the lead of the Western division of the North State Conference with a 4-0 slate.
