Dr. Messick To Speak During Annual Christmas Assembly A program of Christmas music and an address by Dr. John D. Mes- sick will be a part of the annual Christmas Assembly which will be held in Wright Auditorium tomorrow at 10 a.m. The concert band under the direc- tion of Mr. Herbert Carter will open the assembly with several Christmas numbers. Music will also be provided by the Varsi y Glee Club, directed by Mr. Jams Simpson, and the Wo- men's Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Dan E. Vorniholt. Dr. Messick will again tell the story of Handel's "Messiah Following President Messick's address there will be four choruses from "The Messiah The Chorus is made up of members of vihe training choir in the Depart- ment of Music and the conductors have been chosen from the conduct- ing class. "And the Glory of the Lord" will be conducted by Joan McKenzie; "Glory to God" conducted by Ralph Cheeon; "Surely He Hath Borne Our Griefs" conducted by June Crews and "Hallelujah" IChorus conducted by Unita Pope. by Jimmy Ferrell A faculrty-student Evaluation Com- mittee has been appointed by the Policy Committee to study the pres- ent cut system now in effect here, according to President J. D. Messick, Policy Committee Chairman. The Policy Committee is composed of all departmental heads here. The Evaluation Committee will be- gin their study in January. They face no deadline for submission of pro- I osed changes or revisions of the present system if they see fit to make revisions. Marshall Chairman Dr. W. E. Marshall of the Social Studies Department hag been named chairman of the committee. Student Government Association President Donald Umstead and Women's Judi- ciary Chairman Ann Bowles will rep- resent the students. Miss Ruth White, Dean of Women Mr. J. B. Cummings of the Geogra- phy Department, and Mr. George Perry of the Music Department will also work with the committee. Dr. Messick Comments President Messick stated, "We feel that students are taking advantage of themselves in taking tihe cuts which are regularly allowed when so very oft n their classroom work doesn't show that they could afford to miss anything. Many of the student fail- ures, when looked into, show that these students have cut rather fre- quently. "A good student can afford to miss classes, whereas a poor student can- not; but the pesent cut system doesn't allow for any differentiation in the caliber of work performed. Right now, we have no idea whether the present cut system will be changed; but we are going to study it thoroughly in an attempt to determine whether any- thing better can be found A Good System�Jenkins Vice-President Jenkins feels that the present system used here is "one of the best, but it is always wise to re-evaluate He further stated, "I think that it is a good system in spite of the fact that a few people may take advantage of it. The average student does not take advantage of this system Bowles Represents Students Woman's Judiciary Chairman Ann Bowles, who is serving on the com- mittee along with President Umstead, told the East Carolinian, "I feel that somehow the cuts allowed for any class should be in proportion to the number of times the class meets. That wou' certainly seem more fair in the cases in which a student meets a two- hour course five times a week and has the benefit of only two unexcused cuts. In connection with this, two-hour night labs which now count as two cuts should be considered as two class meetings in allotting cuts on this proportional basis. "At present a committee of SGA is investigating the idea of setting up more privileges for seniors. It seems that unlimited cuts for seniors would be a privilege which seniors have earned and would use wisely. This does not seem so drastic in view of the fact that at least at one other state-supported school that I know of Double Cuts 'M " v Morton Smith, (left) associate editor of the Buccaneer editor lanntl CrocWer work on this yais yearbook.

Unexcused absences on January 2, when classwork is resumed, will also count as double cuts, according to Dean Leo Jenkins. Dr. Robert Carter Presented In Recital Here Tuesday Night Dr. Robert Carter, pianist and f ac seniors are no even compelled to take final examinations. "Since only two students will be on tihis committee to investigate the cut system here, I would appreciate very much hearing the ideas and opinions of every other student interested in the matter before a decision is reached. Student Government Association President Donald Umstead, who is also serving on the committee, could not be reached for comment. Other Committees Due to increased needs and grow- ing enrollments the North Carolina College Conference has asked all col- leges to re-evaluate their present pro- grams in the areas of Admissions, iRetention, snd English Usage. The Policy Committee appointed theae committees at the December 9 meet- ing also. ulty member at East Carolina Col- lege, was presented Tuesday, Dec. 13, in a recital of works for the piano. Vre program, sponsored by the college department of music as one of a series of reckals by faculty members during 1955-1956, took place in he Wright auditorium at 8 p.m. On his program Dr. Carter played "Sonata" No. 3, by Norman della Joio, "Prelude, Chorale, and Fugue" by Cesar Franck; and selections by Brahms and Liszit. A member of the college depart- ing.t of music since 1949, Dr. Carter has appeared as pianist in campus recitals and on college-sponsored broadcasts, and has played for a number of civic and cultural organi- zations in Greenville and other towns of Eastern North Carolina.

And so I'm taking all my cuts this week . Jimmy Ferrell "Changes are everywhere. Many institutions and customs that we once thought sacrosanct have gone by the board. Yet there are a few that abide, defying time and revolution. The old message: 'For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord' is "still the heart of Christmas. It can be nothing else. And this message can neither be changed not quite forgotten, although there are many things that tend to make us forget. Modern Author Can't Improve Story ' I here is no need to search for stories new and different. There is only one after all�and no modern author can improve it: 'And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night, and, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and the were sore afraid. "� 'And tiie angel said unto them, Fear not: tor, behold, 1 bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord Do You Han The Christmas Spirit? "Have you been saying, I just can't seem to feel the Christmas spirit this year?' That's too bad. As a confession of lack of faith, it is rather significant. You are saying that you feel no joy that Jesus came into the world . . . you are con- fessing that His presence in the world is not a reality to you. "Maybe you need all the more to red the Christmas story over again, need to sit down with the Gospel of Luke and think about it. I thank Cod tor Christmas. Would that it lasted all year. For on Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day, ail the wo! hi is a better place, and men and wo- men are more lovable. Love itself seeps into every heart, and miracles happen. When Christmas doesn't make your heart swell up until it nearly bursts . . . and fill your eyes with tears . . . and mak� y u all soft and warm inside . . . then you'll know that something inside of you is dead. The Spirit Will Catch You "Don't worry�you'll be ready for it�you'll tch the spirit all right, or it will catch you, s , pi n b tter. And then you will remember � Christmas means�the beginning of Chris- tianity . . . the Second Chance for the world . . . the hope for peace . . . and the only way. " i'he promise that the angels sang is the most wonderful music the world has ever heard. 'Peace on earth and good will toward men It was not a pronouncement upon the state of the world then nor is it a reading of the international barometer the present time . . . but it is a promise�� God's promise�of what one day will come to pass. The Way "The years that are gone are graveyards in which all the persuasions of men have crumbled into dust. If history has any voice, it is to say that all these ways of men lead nowhere. There remains one way�The Way�untried, untested, unexplored fullj . . . the way of Him Who was 1, rn a Babe in Bethlehem. "In a world that seems not only to be chang- ing, but even to be dissolving, there are some tens of millions of us who want Christmas to be the same . . . with the same old greeting 'Merry Christmas' and no other. Keep Christmas . . . keep it as it is "We long for the abiding love among men of good will which the season brings . . . be- lieving in this ancient miracle of Christmas with its softening, sweetening influence to tug at our heart strings once again. We want to hold on to the old customs and traditions because they strengthen our family ties, bind us to our friends, make us one with all mankind for wrhom the Child was born, and bring us back again to the God Who gave His only begotten Son, that 'whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life "So we will not 'spend' Christmas . . . nor 'observe' Christmas. We will 'keep' Christmas� keep it as it is in all the loveliness of its ancient traditions. May we keep it in our hearts, that we may be kept in its hope Easttarolinian Pub ished Sri idents of Ea.st Carolina College, G eenville, North Carolina Name changed from TEOO ECHO November 7, 1952 ARE THE SEGREGATIONISTS BECOMING EXTREMISTS? Un- doubtedly you have heard of the inci- dent which took place at a white Baptist Church in rural Franklin County last week. A 71-year-old Negro woman, who walked approximately four miles from her home in Wake Forest to attend the services, was hastily "bounced" out of the church. A "wel- come" sign hung over the door of the church. The News and Observer reported I at the elderly lady asked a group of the people if they were Christians. She questioned them a second time, till receiving no comments. I wonder if the "welcome" sign is still hanging in front of the church, jangling in the breeze. RUMORS HAVE IT that Tenth Stree' residents near Umstead and Slay Halls are complaining over the excess and continuous noise which streams from the boys' dorms. Those noisemakers who are obli- vious or either unconcerned that they are creating a disturbance should take heir loudness elsewhere or either have to answer to the hall proctors.

Ballots were available at theaters from November 14-17. Winners were announcel on December 6. JAMES DEAN, star of 'Refcel Without A Cause which played at the Pitt a few weeks ago, was named the year's outstanding actor. Jennifer Jones was named the top actress for her role in "Love Is A Many Splen- dored Thing "Mister Roberts" was chosen the best picture of the year. It is interesting to note that final tabulations of votes cast at the Pitt showed 'that moviegoers in this area also selected Jennifer Jones as the outstanding actress of the year. How- ever, the Pitt patrons voted Richard Todd the 'best actor for his role in the inspiring "A Man Called Peter and also choe "A Man Called Peter" he year's best movie. The late James Dean was a char- acter on the screen, but you couldn't help but appreciate his anics.

One thing Id to another and in April of 1954 they became engaged. Their marriage took place in August at the First Baptist Church in Elizabeth City. Jeanne and Jerry, who is from New Bern, are music majors and because of this, they have no minors, but each specialized in a particular field. Jeanne specialized in voice while Jer- ry chose the trumpet. Jerry will graduate in May ana Jeanne is a recent graduate, having completed her work in November. They are making their home in an apartment on campus until January when Jeanne will begin teaching in Williamston. After Jerry graduates they would like to teach in a city about the size of Wilmington. Here Jeanne adds, "Unless Uncle Sam doesn't want us to If hings work out as they've plan- ned, Jeanne and Jerry would like to teach a few years then go back to school and work for their Master's degrees. Columbia University is the school where they've chosen to do this. Jerry says that he would like to work for his Ph. D but Jeanne says she would be content with her M.A. Active In Organizations Tho attractive couple have been quite active in various organizations connected with their majors. Jeanne has been a member of the College Choir, the band, the orchestra, and the College Singers, and was Music Chairman of the B.S.U. Committee. In this position she directed the B. S. U. Choir. Her lovely soprano voice has been heard by many during her various performances both on and off campus. Having the lead in "Banana Moon" and a part in "Blossom Time" earned her membership in the East Carolina Playhouse. She has had solo parts in "The Messiah" and guest soloist at Summer School Commence- ment a couple of summers ago. Jeanne has also sung solos with the Varsity Glee Club and others on cam- pus. by Florence Baker Jeanne In Combo Jeanne and Jerry have shared sev- eral activities, too. At present they have a dance band combo in which Jeanne plays the piano along with he other instruments that make it up They find this relaxing and enjoyable, t and at the same time earn extra mosey by 1 laying at various Country: Clubs and dances. Versaility is one of their many assets since their talent covers such a wide rangt. Here in Greenville Jeanne has directed choirs at Immanuel and Memorial Baptist Churches and at present is director of the Junior Choir at Memorial Baptist Church. Jerry was for a while music director of the First Baptist Church in Washington. Conducted In "Messiah" Jeanne and Jerry were two out of four students who were chosen to howling. (And they play scrabble when it rains!) Reading is a favorite pastime when they have the time. In fact, Jeanne enjoys reading books Philosophy to suoh an extent that she says that she would have chosen this next to music as a major. Jerry : is w' at you might call a "Mr. Fixit I If�; like.s building little odds and ends and anything concerned with dec- oratiny. He's also a Stan Kenton fan and l:stens avidly to Kenton's re- cordings. At this point Jeanne and Jerry state that through their mu- sical training while in college they've learned to sincerely appreciate clas- sxal music, but that they really have a strong admiration for jazz.

Unless the SGA does something to alleviate thi.s probh m it is possible that the administration will put their first alternative into effect, which is ttake cars away from freshmen andor soph- omores. It seems as if some other procedure could be f und that would be fairer to all students Anyway, it's a problem that the SGA ihould wciking on. 'More On The Cut System' I a i1 wi k in "Controversial Currents" w cusse the cut system. In this week's paper tl . article which expresses the views administrators -n the present system. Mosl them think that the students are taking advj age of the present system by cutting when tl really can't afford to cut. Unf rtunately, this is true, but is there any system that we could put into effect in which someone would not take advantage of it?

Pot Pourri A Friday Exodus by Purvis Boyette Last week, the first semi-formal dance of the allege year was held here. The dance was big success but several people mentioned the fact that they did not understand or were not sure ibout the meaning of a semi-formal affair. In- vestigating the problem, it was found that in some 1 calities a function of this type is characterized n dress by young men wearing dinner jackets with the young ladies donning their formal gown preferably full length ones. In a contrasting lo- cality dress was considered proper when men wore dark suits and the girls, short or long eve- ning dresses. Our problem is now simplified into deciding �s to which of the above categories East Carolina belongs. It should be remembered that many students on the campus are self-sufficient and a number of male students would hesitate �r ing to dances requiring them to dress in dinner jackets.

THERE'S HOME for Christmas! NO PLACE the holidays � LIKE Merry TVas Two Weeks Before Christmas. It was two weeks before Christ- mas, and the day of the publication of the last East Carolinian before the holidays was drawing near. The editors and staff were madly rushing to and fro writing last-minute news stories, drawing up ads, writing �deadlines, reading galleys and a mil- lion other little things that have to be done before the final printing of the East Carolinian. The feeling of Christmas was in the air�as well as the numerous Christmas tests prom- ised by our "beloved" professors� but this did not alter the activity of the newspaper office. Everyone was as busy as could be, and the co- editors, Joyce and Jimmy, were ar- guing and chasing each other around the office with their new Christmas rulers presents of the staff mem- bers). Cut Again! Joyce screamed, "Jimmy, you'll just have to cut class again, because we can't possibly get the newspaper out if you don't "O. K. O. K yelled Jimmy with a defeated sigh. Then, the chase was brought to an abrupt halt by the ringing of the phone, tit was the printer.

Meanwhile, Joyce busily typed up last minute headlines and put the final touches on tho second page. This Guy Arnold As the atmosphere was assuming a calm and peaceful state once more, in rushed the sports editor, Billy Arnold. He determinedly snatched up a sheet of paper, threw it into his typewriter and furiously started typing his column, The Crow's Nest, muttering and mumbling to himself as he typed. "Why doesnft somebody ever tell me anything?" he munaibled. "How was I to know that the paper was coming out early?" However, before things could settle down to a quiescent 8tate once again, Jimmy and his crew returned�with the disdainful news that a column was missing. "Where is the column and where is Jane?" inquired Jimmy. At that opportune moment the in- quiredfor rushed into the office with the missing story. Not Again! "I'm sorry that I'm late she ex- claimed, "but I just got out of class Jimmy groaned and Joyce turned pale as Joyce mpanfully said, "Now we'll have to re-arrange all of the second page "Oh, well replied Jimmy with the look of the crushed and the defeated. all day, and I've certainly taken enough cuts from classes already During the remainder of the day the office was a "bee-hive" of activi- ty. Staff members wandered in and read and corrected errors in the gal- leys, and then slipped silently away to the Soda Shop after they had finished. Jimmy and Joyce finished re-arranging the second page, Billy finished his sports column. Peace . . . ? Then with a sigh of finality, Jim- my said, "Well, everything is fin- ished and ready to go back to the printers Joyce sighed and everyone wearily smiled as she exclaimed, "What a day this has been "Well volunteered Billy, "I'm go ing home where there is peace and quiet�and I'm hungry, too Then, as everyone silently and wearily trooped out of the office and stumbled down that enormous flight of sters, the sun was slowly setting and dusk was enveloping the campus. As the last rays of light fell across the cluttered desks of the East Caro- linian office a little mouse scooted across the floor and the quietness of the night fell like a blanket around the deserted room. And, outside, the Christmas laughter and the tinkle of Christmas bells cut through the quietness of the night . . . and an- other day's work for the newspaper staff had ended. Upon several occasions the EAST CARO- LINIAN has made mention of the fact that too many students find it necessary to leave the cam- pus over the weekends. Our two-day weekends should be considered a privilege designed to en- able the student to become acquainted with some of the different aspects of college life. The am- bitious would find the weekend ideal for catching up on back school work, joining and participating in extra-curricular activities, socializing with friends, and most purposeful�working with some establishment in order to help defray some of their college expenses. The long weekend was set up with the idea of providing the college student with the opportunity of becoming more well- rounded. This plan cannot be realized at home. When you return from the Christmas holidays, wouldn't it be wise to try a college weekend for a change? On one late Friday afternoon I was in my room and observed what I have come to call the "Friday Exodus I jotted down my observa- tions in the following word thought. Looking out my window, I saw that twilight reigned. Music was playing softly. The trees were motionless. An occasional light played on a branch, a leaf: danced, and was no more. The morbid fingers of death seemed to have gripped the air, the leaves, the dirt. . . . Cars streamed along the highway, moving effortlessly. A student left the dorm, walked aim- lessly across the yard, between two buildings and wa gone. All was quiet as silence and peace mov- ed over the campus. Strains of music held me between reality and that other world�whatever it might be. Dark clouds of smoke billowed from a single chimney as if spreading darkness over the area. Time slipped away . . . night came. A car pulled from its parking place and moved hurriedly away. Stillness . . . .The Friday exodus was complete . . . and I, alone with my thoughts.

Switchboard Operates Large Number Of College Phones BOARD for (Contiued from page 1) the entire Student Body Thus voting will take place a q after :he Christmas holidays. East Carolina is fortunate to be of the six colleges in the state ave a College Union. By virtue eing a member of tihe East Caro- lina College Student Body, each stu- dent is automatically a member of the Union and can participate in its activities. The organization of the College Union Student Board is similar to the established unions at State, Duke, Carolina, and other colleges. With Miss Cyntihia Mendenhall, recreation supervisor of the College Union, as its advisor, the Board consists of: sident, Decoma Byrd; secretary, Jo Anne Harris; treasurer, Libby Small; and the committee chairmen- House, Charles Simmons; Publicity, Roy Askew; Games, Joel Farrar and Eddie Dennis; Music and Dance, Greenville Banks; Social, Dot Lloyd; Fine Arts, Jack Beaman; and Special Projects, Linda Whitehurst. Membership of the above-listed committees will be made of members of the student body who volunteer for work on the committees. After the holidays, a membership campaign sponsored by the Board. It is the belief of the College Un- ion Student Board that the program of the Union will be broadened by its present organization with stu- dents taking an active part in plan- ning and executing the program. Probaby few students at East Caro- lina know that the college has a pri- vate automatic switchboard in Austin building. The switchboard was set up in the fall of 1953 and has been in use since then. It is operated from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 12:40 p.m. on Saturday. T. ere are approximately 75 dif- ferent r.hones operated by the college switchboard. These phones cannot be used except during 'he time the op- erators are on duty. Certain tele- phones, such as the Cafeteria, Dean of Women, Infirmary, Registrar, Di- rector of Athletics, Faculty Apart- ments, and the Power Plant, are con- nected for outside service at night and on weekends. The switchboard is automatic and calls between offices do not have to be plugged in. Calls going to outside lines or coming from outside lines are received at the switchboard. The operator then dials the party desired. A regular operator is on duty from 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. At the other hours, student operators take over. The job is not difficult to learn and it is often quite exciting. The opera- tor must be familiar with the various teachers and their departments and must know something about the of- fices at the college. Students have been requested not to use these phones for long distance calls except in cases of emergency. e are business phones and should not be tied up. Phones are provided in the dormitories for the student's use. East Carolina Student Contributes Writing To Poetry Publication Dock Garner Smi h of Princeton, junior at Ea.st Carolina College, has just been notified that his poem "Grey Ski s" has been chosen for inclusion in the Annual Anthology of College Poetry, published by the Na.ional Poetry Association, Los Angele-s Cal- ifornia.
