Ihe reason for investigation, ex-

Marks Of Destruction
For the past few weeks students have wit-
nessed a few campus improvements taking place.
One of the most noted advances are the sidewalks
that hav been laid on campus. Not only does
this help the appearance of the grounds, but it
will also be of great help to the students. No
longer will they have to walk through wet grass,
mud and such. We have heard many favorable
comments in connection with this improvement
and we gather that the majority of the students
appreciate this work.
As is true in most cases, however, some peo-
ple fail to appreciate it and they attempt to abuse
the right of having this improvement. We are
making particular reference to the sidewalk on
the side of the College Union. Almost immediately
after the cement was laid, students began putting
initials and other marks in the wet cement. Some
students were so indignant as to walk on it before
it was completely hard. The sidewalk as it is now
set is a big help but we can certainly say that
due to students' offenses it does not have the nice
appearance that it could have.
When you walk by and see some of the words
and initials, are you proud to know that they
were put there by you or your fellow college
mates? Isnt it a bit juvenile to go around mark-
ing up public property?
Students are continually pleading for various
G tmpus improvements, yet when they get an im-
provement they immediately take advantage of
it. May we ask just what kind of gratitude this
is?
As mature college students let us consider
our duty and responsibility toward our property.
Our school is frequently honored with visitors.
we want to set a good example for them? If

Who's Who Among Students At East Carolina College

After reading "Under the Dome"
in (fee October 20 issue of the News
Ojad Observer some East Carolina
. tu U-nts have been discussing the
j o- -MUtics of losing our president
to the Greater University of North
Carolina. According to this article the
Bnectf ive Committee of the Univer-
sity trustees will take up Gordon
Gray's resignation nerfl month. At
pre- nt Gray is in Washington on a
leave of absence. He is serving as
Assistant Secretary of Defense.
Dr. J. Harris Purks, who is now
acting president, will probably suc-
ceed Gray, but according to the above
reference some people are considering
Dr. Messick for this position. We
quote the following from "Under the

DNC Seeks Cooperation
Paul M. Butler, Chairman of the Democratic
National Committee, has appealed to leading edu-
cators for cooperation in the National Commit-
tee's plan to stimulate political discussion and
encourage political activities on campuses during
the 1956 Presidential election year.
In a letter to presidents of colleges and uni-
versities throughout the country, Mr. Butler
pointed out that he has written to Republican
Chairman Leonard Hall to join in encouraging
such activity. The Democratic National Commit-
tee's aim, he wrote the educators, is "to work
with established campus groups, and to encourage
the organization of ones where they do not exist
Mr. Butler expressed the hope that restrictions
against student political activities in some col-
leges and universities "will be reviewed and that
further consideration will result in their repeal
Following is part of Mr. Butler's letter to
the educators and Mr. Hall:
"It is our hope that young people every-
where will take a lively and informed interest
in the Presidential election next year, particularly
young men and women of college age who are
just becoming voters. My own feeling is that po-
litical activity is an undertaking that should be
especially encouraged among students so that
this responsibility becomes a lifetime habit.
"We at the Democratic National Committee
plan to make special efforts to stimulate political
discussion and activity among college students
next year, and I am writing to you and leading
educators at this time in the hope of enlisting
your cooperation.
"Many schools already have Democratic and
Republican Clubs. It is our aim to work With
established campus groups, and to encourage the
organization of ones where they do not exist. We
think it would be a splendid thing for the country
it the electorate were enriched by campus political
clubs working within the framework of our ma-
jor political parties. Unfortunately, there are
some colleges and universities which now forbid
the existence of student political organizations.
It is our hope that such restrictions will be re-
viewed and that further consideration will result
in their repeal
iA friendly and pleasing personality
well-known by many Bast Carolina
students is none other than Ronnie
Rose, a business major from Golds
boro. At the present time, Ronnie,
a senior, is doing his student teach-
ing at Greenville High School.
AFROTC
Throughout his college career, Ron-
nie has been quite active in numerous
phases of college curricular. One of
the most outstanding highlight, of
his life here at Bast Carolina has
been his active participation in the
ROTC for four years. During the
past summer, Ronnie, along with oth-
er cadets from East Carolina, attend-
ed the ROTC summer training en-
campment at Hurver Air Force Base
Savannah, Georgia, where he re-
ceive 1 an insight on military life.
According to Ronnie, the highlight of
camp was the thrill of flying under
supervision a jet T-33 type aircraft.
He las recently been chosen as a
distinguished ROTC student, and has
applied for a regular commission in
the Air Force. This commission is
giv n on the basis of scholastic and
military standing. Also, Ronnie has
received the Republic Aviation Award
for participation and lectures on the
Air Force.
Dramatics
Many students came to know Ron-
nie through his performances in the
dramatic productions presented here
by the music department. During bis
sophomore year he wag a leading
character in the operatic production,
"Blossom Time Also, during his
junior year he had the leading role
in "Brigadoon In both musical pro-
ductions, Ronnie hag portrayed the
character of a habitual drunkard with
a very suspicious and distrusting
character. Thig role seems to have
followed him throughout college, as

"After visiting many colleges, both
large and small, I have yet to find
one that has all of the qualities of
East Carolina combined. As attrac-

and a general feeling of �o-opera-

faculty lends an atmosphere of dis-
tinction to Ba�t Carolina says Ron-

Gossips. Few words in our English languj
have had a more topsy-turvy career than the wc
gossip. Originally, it meant a relation to Godj
godfather or godmother. Then it was Kpel

it evolved its present connotation�the kind
talk boon companions too often indulge in. Th4

As was brought to the attention
of the Siuderat Legislature last week
many students, especially freshmen,
fail to know that they are welcomed
to attend any legislature meeting.
'tfhe logtelature is no closed meeting
and any student should feel free to
attend any of tlhie sessions.
The legislature itself is made up
of representatives from the various
recognized groups on campus. Every
student, however, is a member of the
S udent Government Association. A
: lu-Jent who has an interest in his
Student Government work should
make an effort to attend at least a
few meetings. An hour or so spent
in a legislature meeting is not lost
time. 'It can he very educational and

students to come by and visit the

some bad. This is only natural and
may we take this opportunity to en-
courage any student to oiffer his crit-

Often we find such only after it is
brought to our attention.
As editors of this paper we have
a responsibility to serve this school
in many ways. We try to do our job
well, but as is true with everyone we
often fall short Of our duty.
We appreciate all the favorable
remarks that we Lave heard and most
of ail we appreciate the cooperation
that we have received from everyone.
One thing tjha'i we would like
noourage is letters to the editor.

like very much to receive more. How-
ever, let Ug offer one reminder. All

Aittr summer's laziness has van-
ished wi h the arrival of October and
November, comes the time of Indian
summer.
Although the warm sun is preva-
lent, the air is cool, invigorating, and
clearly dominated by a soft haze.
The hesitation of the morning sun
and t e lengthening shades of night
are also noticed. When Jack Frost

fresh green of newly sowed grass, the

So are a few details of the current
season.

Adjacent to the coke machines in
all the dormitories seems to be (plenty
of room for nab and candy bar ma-

liven up nightly coke parties and
quell the hunger pangs of those tak-

studies to enjoy a snack.

dents would allot more hours for
Hold That Line
Many of the dorms on campus are
very limited in their phone service.
Some dorms such Cotten, Um-
stead, and Slay are overly blessed
by having MORE than one phone.
However, Fleming, Wilson, Ragsdale,
and Jarvis Halls have only one phone
for approximately three hundred wo-
rn n students. This is quite incon-
venient for relatives, boyfriends and
otr.erfi who often wish to call girls
in these dorms, as they are inevitably
always busy. Since there are 1440
minutes in a day and there are ap-
proximately three hundred students
kn each dorm, each girl is allowed
approximately four minutes and for-
ty-five seconds each day to talk over
the phone. However, who wishes to
rise at 5 o'clock in the morning to
use her four minutes and forty-
five seconds?

dent. The idea that only the faculty

course effectiveness seems to me not
only outdated but also not logically
sound. The students are also a part
of the class and in an excellent posi-

It would be ridiculous to say that
a student is able to judge just what
courses he needs, or even to say he
can judge just how much he receives
from a particular claas; but is it no;
just as foolish to pretend that only
those on the teaching end can make
such decisions? The final decisions
are, of course, those of the faculty;
tceirs is the more weighty word, but

their opinions.

East Tennessee

East Carolina suffered a 35 to 20
setback Saturday night at Johnson
City, Tennessee, as East Tennessee
State College overcame a 13 to 0
deficK in winning the non-conference
tilt.
The Pirates' opening tally came
as the result of Milton Collier'a 49-
yard aerial to Emo Boado. Collier'a
attempt at the extra point wag euc-
cess-ful. After using a short passing
aid running attack, East Carolina
ored its second touchdown when
Harold O'Kelly took Quarterback Dick
Cherry's handoff and went oveT from
the 'our yard marker. Collier's try
at the extra point was no good.
East Tennessee broke into the scor-
ing column when Howard Tippet
raced around rigjhft end for 16 yards
to reach the goal line. East Carolina
halfback Bobby Perry retaliated
against East Tennessee's thrust by
racing down the sidelines for 26 yard
to paydirt. Cherry's attempt at the
conversion wag successful.
Lanky end Bob Evan8 gathered in
Quai erback Don Riley's second
quarter pass for East Tennessee's
second toudhdown and the half ended
with East Carolina holding a narrow
20 to 14 edge.
During the first half, injurie be-
came Coach Jack Boone's main worry
as backs Gary Martocks, Harold O
Killy end guard Ken Burgess had
to leave the game. The plague otf
injuries continued to cause a shuff-
ling of the East Carolina lineup s

(Tt ig interesting to note just how
wrong people can be when it comes
o judging the potentiality of an
athletic team.
Sports predicting has become a
pretty big thing in modern times,
for it touches practically every fan
in some way or anotiher. Every Ifan
has probably, at least once, tried
his hand at predicting the score of
a big football contest; and then, there
are -hose wio are always ready to
wager on the outcome of a particular
battle. Others are just interested.
Anyway, the point I'm trying to put
across is that the so-called "experts"
of this field have become very big
dogg in today's world of sports.
Somebody Goofed
Many of these experts have become
pre.ty good over the years and per-
haps register as much a8 80 or 90
per cent of their predictions correct-
ly. However, when these boys goof,
they usually do a spectacutarly com
plete and thorough job of it. A classi

with a quick Riley-to-Evans toss to

East Tennessee scored their fifth

Coach Jack Boone had nothing but
praise for the team as both offense
and defense sparkled until injuries

Leading the Pirates' attack were I yet to score a single point in North
cal example of this is found right
here in our own North State Con-
ference.
Pre-season reports hy the State's
crystal ball gazers indicated that the
Christians of Elon College were to
be a fire-spitting, heH-for-leather
aggregation that could sweep through
'� -e loop and ultimately end up with
the crown. The mighty Christians
were rated highly because of a strong
line and speedy offensive attack, led
by an elusive halfback named Kerry
Richards.
(Let me state here that I am not
attempting to take anything away
from Richards and his crew. The sim-
ple fact is that the Christians DO
have a fine team, despite the many
factors that would indicate otherwise,
fci fact, this points out how extremely
hazardous the life of an expert can
be. Richards has been an outstanding f
ground-gainer throughout the season
and his team has been a hard-fighting
squad.)
Who Can Explain It?
On paper and in pre-season drills,
he Christians DID appear to have
the upper hand in this year's Con-
ference action. However, at the pres-
ent time, the Elon team is resting on
te bottom of the league with six
defeats under their beHs. The Bur-
lington eleven has p!�yed a half-
dozen games and lost all of them.
Adding further humiliation to both
He team and forecasters of its great-
ness is the fact that the squad has
the opening contest, the Bucs
barely squeezed in a victory by a
single touchdown. Rated on 'an even
�basis with West Chester and Cataw-
ba, Coach Boone's boys could not
mea.surj up.
However, by the time the Elon
match came around, the experts had
wLed up and tagged the Pirates a
definite widerdog. ECC then drubbed
the Christians 13-0 and went on to
slap down Western Carolina as well.
Last week, the Purple and Gold were
rated one touchdown favorites over
East Tennessee (the forecasters
again reversed their field) ?nd
promptly suffered a 35-20 shellack-
ing.
A word of thanks is extended to
three freshman reporters now active-
ly working on the East Carolinian
sports page. They are Johnny Hud-
son, Mike Katsias and Bill Boyd.

In League Standings;
Bucs Tied For Second
East Carolina's Pirates now share
the distinction of being in a four-
team tie for second place in the North
State Conference. The other teams
sharing second place are Appalachian,
�Oatawiba, and West Carolina. This
week's Appalachian game will be of
great importance to East Carolina
it is a contest which may well decide
the number two spot and is the Last
conference game of the season for
t e Buccaneers.
Appalachian celebrated homecom-
ing with a 26-0 triumph over Emory
and Henry, a victory which has left
it with the desire to add yet another
victory to its list. The big question
this week will be whether or not the
Pirates can suppress the ambitions
of the invaders from Appalachian.
Lenoir Rhyne is firmly entrenched
in first place as the conference lead-
er, a position which now seems to
be theirs exclusively.

In similar fashion, the Pirates of
East Carolina have also done their
hare of making monkeys of the men
who predict. Their up-and-down an-
tics throughout the 1955 season have
caused fans and forecasters alike
many a headache.
