ple of this variable performance call-<lb/>
ed "o; era "The Barber of Seville"<lb/>
was originally a German opera by<lb/>
Mozart but has been re-vri ten by<lb/>
the brilliant Italian composer, Ros-<lb/>
sini, it is a very old story about,a<lb/>
very beautiful girl, Rosina (the so-<lb/>
prano) wih whom Count A'maviv<lb/>
(the tenor) is in love (although hej<lb/>
has never met her) and wants to<lb/>
marry. He come-? in te early dawn<lb/>
to serenade<lb/>
onlv to<lb/>
driven<lb/>
away by Rosina's guardian, Bartolo<lb/>
who also de-sires to marry Rosina. At<lb/>
this frustrating point in his life,<lb/>
the count meets Figaro (the Baritone)<lb/>
who is the Barber of Seville. With<lb/>
himfhe Count devises a plan to meet<lb/>
Rosina. In the meantime, Bartolo<lb/>
learns of the presence of Count Al-<lb/>
mavia in Seville and proceeds to place<lb/>
Rosina under lock and key because<lb/>
of her growing affection for her un-<lb/>
known serenader. From this point on,<lb/>
the story moves forcefully and dra-<lb/>

Stop Light Proposal Waiting<lb/>
For Greenville City Budget<lb/>
According to information released<lb/>
recently from the office of the<lb/>
Greenville City Manager, action has<lb/>
again been deferred on the proposed<lb/>
installation of a traffic light at the<lb/>
in ersection of Fifth Street and<lb/>
Beckwith Gate by the Administration<lb/>
Building here.<lb/>
The item, tabled at the City Coun-<lb/>
cil meeting in November, was not<lb/>
discussed ' at the last two monthly<lb/>
meetings arid will not be brought<lb/>
before the group again until a bud-<lb/>
g 't for the'new fiscal period has been<lb/>
prepared. This new fiscal period will<lb/>
begin July 1, 1956.<lb/>
The traffic light proposal was in-<lb/>
troduced to the council in October<lb/>
by the Stop Light Securement Com-<lb/>
mittee which was appointed by the<lb/>
Student Government Association. At<lb/>
that time, however, it vva referred<lb/>
to the State Highway Commission,<lb/>
since Fifth Street i.s a state high-<lb/>
way. The Highway Commission ap-<lb/>
proved the request with one recom-<lb/>
mendation?namely, that the signal<lb/>
should operate only at busy hours.<lb/>
Survey Made<lb/>
Before sending the request to Ra-<lb/>
ligh, the City Council placed a count-<lb/>
er on Fifth Street and the main en-<lb/>
trance to tabulate the number of<lb/>
cars that passed along the street<lb/>
and through the entrance.<lb/>
During an eight-hour period?10<lb/>
sum. to 6 p.m.?2400 cars passed<lb/>
down the street, and 1690 of them<lb/>
ei her left or entered the college<lb/>
entrance. The council also seated that<lb/>
before an actuated light, such as the<lb/>
one desiied by the committee, should<lb/>
be Installed, that there should be an<lb/>
average of four cars per minute?<lb/>
one below the average shown by the<lb/>
eight hour tabulation.<lb/>
Waiting For City Approval<lb/>
Now that the traffic signal has<lb/>
been approved by the Sta e Highway<lb/>
Commission, the final action rests<lb/>
with the Greenville Council. How-<lb/>
ever, when the item was last dis-<lb/>
cussed by this council, the City<lb/>
Manager did not seem very enthusi-<lb/>
astic about the matter.<lb/>

At Second Meeting<lb/>
Committee Prepares Recommendation<lb/>
Miss Ray Linthieum . . . chosen recently as sponsor of the annual<lb/>
Military Ball which will be held March 3. (J. D. Henry photo)<lb/>
An initial recommendation stating,<lb/>
"It is the consensus of the commit-<lb/>
tee that cuts equal to the number of<lb/>
hours the class meets per week be<lb/>
permitted; and the number of cuts!<lb/>
ermit ed in tve lab periods shall be <lb/>
left to the discretion of each depart-<lb/>
ment" was prepared last week at the<lb/>
- cond nice ing of the committee ap-<lb/>
pointed to btudy and evaluate the<lb/>
cut system now in effect here.<lb/>
.According to the committee mem-<lb/>
b rs, however, t. is recommendation<lb/>
will be filed and will not be presented<lb/>
to the Policies Committee until a<lb/>
thorough study is made of the pres-<lb/>
ent system. Numerous proposals will<lb/>
be drawn for consideration during<lb/>
his study, the committee pointed out.<lb/>
Discuss Weaknesses<lb/>
Committee members present at the<lb/>
second meeting continued discussing<lb/>
wat they considered as weak points<lb/>
in the present system, studied sys-<lb/>
tems used in other colleges, and<lb/>
heard Dr. Marshall read suggestions<lb/>
which were made by several upper-<lb/>
classmen when asked to comment on<lb/>
the cut system.<lb/>
Student Government Association<lb/>
President Donald Umstead and Wo-<lb/>
men's Judiciary Chairman Ann<lb/>
Bowles, who are representing the stu-<lb/>
dent body on the committee, were<lb/>
absent. Dr. Marshall pointed out that<lb/>
according to reports that he had re-<lb/>
ceived, a great number of the stu-<lb/>
d nts questioned considered the mat-<lb/>
ter of obtaining excused absences far<lb/>
too liberal. Others felt .hat the pres-<lb/>
n t system was functioning satis-<lb/>
factorily.<lb/>
Something Weak - - - Marshall<lb/>
"Ther. is something weak in the<lb/>
system that doesn't call to the atten-<lb/>
tion of he students that they are<lb/>
le initely hurting themselves Dr.<lb/>
Marshal emphasised to the group be-<lb/>
fore the initial recommendation was<lb/>
drawn. The commit ee agreed with<lb/>
Dr. Marshall t. at "the whole cut sys-<lb/>
tem is a protective measure to pro-<lb/>
vide protec ion to the student himself<lb/>
and for his benefit<lb/>
Student Committee<lb/>
Dean Tucker introduced the idea of<lb/>
baring President Umstead appoint a<lb/>
student commit'ee to study cut sys-<lb/>
tem? of other schools, believing tha;<lb/>
they would find our system "very<lb/>
liberal The proposal was discarded,<lb/>
howt v- r, before the initial recommen-<lb/>
dation was drawn.<lb/>
No specific da'e has been set for<lb/>
te third meeting of the committee.<lb/>

Let's Ever Keep In Mind<lb/>
What The Galilean Said<lb/>
Relipious Emphasis Week is set aside once a year with the<lb/>
hope that Christ will be brought closer and made more meaning-<lb/>
ful in the lives of those on our campus. This year, with the theme<lb/>
"Revolution and Reconciliation" our distinguished vistors have<lb/>
a marvelous sub'xt . ith which to challenge the thinking of those<lb/>
who seek a Christian way of life.<lb/>
We need a citizenry possessed of faith in God and with<lb/>
such love for humanity that the gospel of peace and brotherhood<lb/>
will motivate them to exemplify the essential principles of the<lb/>
Golden Rule throughout their lives.<lb/>
As we go about our daily tasks, let's ever keep in mind<lb/>
what the Galilean said: "And I, if I be lifted up, will draw all<lb/>
men unto me <lb/>

Those men. who arc introduced elsewhere in<lb/>
this paper, have been asked by the Inter-Religious<lb/>
Council to develop the heavy-sounding theme<lb/>
"Revolution and Reconciliation "Revolution<lb/>
marks the mood i t modern man: oppressed peo-<lb/>
ples revolting against their colonial masters, tree<lb/>
peoples ivy igainst the burden of their own<lb/>
democratic responsibility for self-rule, and the<lb/>
individual revolting against many things and, in<lb/>
me of the worst of ways, against himself. "Rec-<lb/>
n" suggests that something may be done<lb/>
bring h pe out of despair and vital life out of<lb/>
crass indifference.<lb/>

A front-page headline in last week's East<lb/>
u und ubtedly caused considerable mis-<lb/>
i g the student body. The headline<lb/>
th the initial meeting of the committee<lb/>
is at present studying and evaluating the<lb/>
m now in effect here, and stated that no<lb/>
s were made in the present system during<lb/>
Lip's first meeting.<lb/>
As we have pointed out in other stories con-<lb/>
committee, the group faces no dead-<lb/>
ljn( ? n of proposed revisions of the<lb/>
system. The study will continue until the<lb/>
ttee feels that they have made a thorough<lb/>
investigation and have considered carefully any<lb/>
which they might take before the Poli-<lb/>
n mittee.<lb/>
The headline was not intended to imply that<lb/>
was failing to show any sign of<lb/>
W ore under the impression that each<lb/>
ndation drawn would be taken before<lb/>
Policies Committee immediately?not with-<lb/>
until all proposed revisions are prepared,<lb/>
this supp sition. should the proposal<lb/>
by the Policies Committee, the pres-<lb/>
m would be subject to changes, although<lb/>
ould n it be put into effect immediately.<lb/>
The committee prepared their first recom-<lb/>
week which stated, in effect, that<lb/>
would be awarded cuts equal to the hours<lb/>
ass meets each week. This plan does not<lb/>
: ide alT<lb/>
ar to be<lb/>
tment.<lb/>
Undei this plan those courses carrying tive<lb/>
hours of credit would not be affected?only those<lb/>
meeting h urs in excess of the credit hours<lb/>
awarded upon completion of the course.<lb/>
If the matter of laboratory cuts is to be left<lb/>
the discretion of each department, they will<lb/>
undoubtedly continue to rule laboratory absences<lb/>
the same as cuts in the regular class period.<lb/>
Therefore, those students enrolled in five hour<lb/>
courses which require four hours of lab work<lb/>
each week will be attending nine hours of class-<lb/>
work, but will receive only five excused absences.<lb/>
This initial recommendation doesn't seem<lb/>
quite fair in view of the fact that other classes<lb/>
will be permitted excused absences equal to the<lb/>
number of hours the class meets.<lb/>
THE FINAL ACT was drawing to<lb/>
a close when several audible scream?<lb/>
from the Gotten Hall vicinity clashed<lb/>

vir.c 1 that Boado practically had the<lb/>

that Umstead presented an interesting<lb/>
platform.<lb/>

lowing that Boado did. That's what I<lb/>
tried to tell everybody. Don Umstead<lb/>

THE OUTLOOK FOR '56: Next<lb/>
all's enrollment figures should easily<lb/>

T.e present cut system now in ef-<lb/>
fect here will probably be revised,<lb/>
but I doubt if compulsory attendance<lb/>
will even be considered by the com-<lb/>
mittee now making the study.<lb/>
I believe Dock Smith will be a<lb/>
candidate for SGA prexy this Spring.<lb/>
After the convincing victory he won<lb/>
over Bruce Phillips and Russ Newman<lb/>
for the position last summer, he'll<lb/>
definitely give someone a tough bat-<lb/>
tle. When questioned about the mat-<lb/>
ter, he replied, "I'm not sure yet<lb/>
Undoubtedly the faculty will re-<lb/>
main status quo . . . although Dr.<lb/>
Stewart just might grow bigger and<lb/>
better pickled peppers.<lb/>
be overlooked if this occurred only<lb/>
once in awhile. However, if this inci-<lb/>
dent is repeated too often, would it<lb/>
no hv possible to assume that some-<lb/>
thing is possibly amiss in the grade<lb/>
and quality of some types of food<lb/>
served in the cafeteria? Also, it seems<lb/>
hat appearing in the food lately<lb/>
have been various species of foreign<lb/>
matter. As a result of these things,<lb/>
it seems that many students have<lb/>
been forced to find some other place<lb/>
to eat, either in town or in the Soda<lb/>
Shop, because their stomachs were<lb/>
not strong enough to withstand such<lb/>
torture. The above implications sug-<lb/>
gest only a few incidents that have<lb/>
occurred. Therefore, is it not justi-<lb/>
fiable to ponder the following ques-<lb/>
tions: Has the cafeteria become lax<lb/>
in their sanitary conditions? Has the<lb/>
<lb/>
quite expressive of the opinions of a<lb/>
number of students (in other words<lb/>
the editorial stated bluntly what<lb/>
many students would like to shout).<lb/>
dsfc stated that the professors wish<lb/>
for us to become a well-rounded indi-<lb/>
vidual in exactly ONE HOUR as the<lb/>
other twenty-bhree hours are spent<lb/>
in attending classes, studying, and<lb/>
(believe it or not) eating and sleep-<lb/>
ing. However, a few points which<lb/>
were not brought out were the poor,<lb/>
unfortunate souls who begin their<lb/>
days at eight o'clock, and on some<lb/>
days have only a lunch until five<lb/>
o'clock in the afternoon. Also, there<lb/>
are many students who have labora-<lb/>
ory classes at least two days a week<lb/>
ill men saiiiLtiiy iwuiuviM i ?? v"?-<lb/>
food become a poorer grade? Theae until late in the afternoon. Where<lb/>
o?. ??oc;?r,0 vmnr rnn,WoH nnnn nil U their ONE HOUR to become a<lb/>
are questions being pondered upon all<lb/>
over the campus by the students?<lb/>
who are almost afraid to eat there<lb/>
because of the unknown results which<lb/>
eating there might bring. Perhaps<lb/>
bve cafeteria management would do<lb/>
well to try to improve some of these<lb/>
seemingly hideous faults?and start<lb/>
serving food which each and every<lb/>
student can enjoy, not only on Sun-<lb/>
days but throughout the week as well,<lb/>
unafraid of the results which eating<lb/>
there might bring.<lb/>
Books vs. Education<lb/>
An editorial which appeared in the<lb/>
East Carolinian last week caused a<lb/>
number of comments ? especially<lb/>
is their ONE HOUR to become<lb/>
well-rounded individual? It seems<lb/>
that some of the professors do not<lb/>
realize that East Carolina is NOT<lb/>
on the semester system; that we do<lb/>
not have one whole day between class-<lb/>
es in which to prepare our assign-<lb/>
ments. (However, here it seems tnat<lb/>
the whole weekend is consumed In<lb/>
catching up assignments for the past<lb/>
week.)<lb/>
It is true that our purpose in com-<lb/>
ing to college was to obtain an edu-<lb/>
cation and to make the most of our<lb/>
precious hours here. However, pro-<lb/>
fessor, does an education begin and'<lb/>
end only in books?<lb/>
The structure is of rough stone with oi<lb/>
iron barred windows in true medieval fashi<lb/>
The tower and a portion of the building are c<lb/>
ered with greenish-brown ivy. One is immedli<lb/>
impressed with the originality of the char;<lb/>
who prompted the castle's erection.<lb/>
Legend has it that a student in the<lb/>
history of the University desired membership<lb/>
one of the campus social fraternities. Such<lb/>
denied him and being fabulously wealthy h?<lb/>
ated his own frat?the Order of the Gimglv<lb/>
The castle was built expressly for the group<lb/>
from the outset was a secret organization. M<lb/>
bers were "tapped" in and whenever a sei<lb/>
was rendered the school it was done through<lb/>
intermediator.<lb/>
Many frightful incidents are connected wr-<lb/>
its past. One member's sweetheait supposedly<lb/>
rejected his proposal. Distraught with grrief, he<lb/>
carried her to the castle's tower, erected a no<lb/>
and left her swinging. Another young lady's<lb/>
tionship with a Ginmghoul resulted in the<lb/>
of her head. So goes the gist of three log?<lb/>
concerning the life and members at Gimghoul<lb/>
Castle. It is my understanding that the Or<lb/>
the Gimghouls still exists.<lb/>
Creative talent can often be found among<lb/>
students here at East Carolina. One individual<lb/>
who has a literary bend is Franklin Thomas from<lb/>
Carthage. The recent weather inspired Mr. Thom-<lb/>
as to compose the following poem.<lb/>
rain<lb/>
into my soul, in the watches of the night,<lb/>
comes your joyful tranquality, which reaches<lb/>
the depths of my self, and then passes<lb/>
on to come again another day.<lb/>
come rain, bring your sorrow.<lb/>
forever rain, ever on the morrow.<lb/>
your vivid fragrance, sweet as earth itself<lb/>
does instill in me, the life in earth again.<lb/>

Nothing<lb/>
without wings<lb/>
climbs like a<lb/>
'56 Chevrolet!<lb/>
Ever level off a mountain with<lb/>
your foot? Nothing to it. Just point<lb/>
this new '56 Chevy uphill and ease<lb/>
down on the gas.<lb/>
Up you go with a quiet (hy-<lb/>
draulic-hushed valve lifters now in<lb/>
all engines?V8 or 6) rush of power.<lb/>
This is the car, you know, that<lb/>
broke the Pikes Peak record. The<lb/>
car that conquered towering grades<lb/>
and vicious switchback turns to<lb/>
prove its superior performance,<lb/>
handling ease and cornering ability.<lb/>
These are built-in qualities that<lb/>
mean more driving pleasure and<lb/>
safety for you. Chevrolet also offers<lb/>
such safety features as seat belts,<lb/>
with or without shoulder harness,<lb/>
and instrument panel padding as<lb/>
extra-cost options.<lb/>
There are 19 new Chevrolets?<lb/>
all with Body by Fisher. Drop in<lb/>
and drive one.<lb/>
