Carolina Feud Continues
Undoubtedly many of the students at the
University of North Carolina are definitely in
favor o( big time football. Jim Tatum, the Tar
Heels' new head football coach and former foot-
ball coach at Maryland, admits he likes big time
football.
But Louis Kraar and Ed Voder, co-editors
of The Daily Tar Heel, are definitely against big
time football, and feel that it causes "cancerous
effects in academics Neither do they like Jim
Tat urn's idea of professionalism.
The students at UNC have taken action, and
- will be replaced sometime in Febr-
uary. E. L. Nance, a student from Charlotte, drew
up a petition seeking a recall for the post of editor
of The Daily Far Heel. Over 10 per cent of the
student body signed the petition and, according
to the attorney general of the University student
dy, an election f r the post of editor of the
paper will be held soon.
University students seem to have been dis-
vrith the present editors' policies and
nds all year. Their recent blast at Tatum was,

Editorially
Speaking
by Joyce Smith
Religious Emphasis Week is suc-
cespfully drawing- to a close today.
The last address will be delivered
tonight by Dr. R. P. Roth, dean of
the graduate school at Lutheran
Southern Seminary, Columbia, South
Carolina. We have heard excellent
addresses, took part in discussion
groups and received food for thought.
Le: us now take this gained experi-
ence a�id knowledge and apply it to
a- ry day's situations. Recognition
ai d praise are certainly due the Inter-
Religious Council, who have diligently
planned this veek. Theirs wa.s an
enormous job and they rendered their
task well.
We would also like to extend appre-
ciation to the speakers who took part
in Religious Emphasis Week. They
-ave greatly enriched our lives.
Good sportsmanship! Just what
does this term mean to East Caro-
lina students? For the last few ball
games there have been signs of bad
sportsmanship within the ECC cheer-
ing .section. Such things as booing
the referee and the opponent team
members is a bad practice on the
part of any student.
We are representing our school in
a great way at ball games. The im-
pressions we make before others a.
games are frequently carried away.
The East Carolina Pirates have made
an outstanding record this year and
they are recognized as one of the
best teams in the North State Con-
fin nee. Do we want to tear down
part of this recognition by exploiting
bad sportsmanship?
Maybe the other team does not
always exhibit honest rivalry, but
does that give us just reason :o dis-
play poor school spirit?
I feel just in saying that our team
members are very good sportsmen.
1ft is a shame that some of our spec-
tators have to resort to such childish
scions.
Another suggestion that students
should keep in mind is to avoid call-
ing for the first-string team members
w. ile the second-stringers are play-
ing. After all, how does this make
the reserve players feel? When we
ar � leading, why shouldn't they be
allowed to play? Even if we are not
leading we have ball players other
than the starting five who are po-
tential ballplayers and they should
cer airily be given a chance.
In making these remarks about
poor sportsmanship we are not saying
that the entire student body resorts
to acts of poor school spirit, but it
is the actions of a few that reflect
on the entire student body. As a
whole, our cheering sections exhibit
a fine school spirit. We might say
that it is a vast improvement over
the spirit shown during football sea-
son.

ta's title, which because of a bless-lyear this operetta has been offered
Frances Smith
ing, reappeared once every hundred
years.
Upon asking Frances to comment
on �'BrigaJoon she said, "I think
that 'Brigadoon' called for more from
�vi ry erson concerned, from director
down to stage hand, than any pro-
duction prior to 'Brigadoon "
This year the Productions Commit-
tee of the S. G. A. has selected "Okla-
homa" by Rodgers and Hammerstein
II for the major production. Dr.
Kenneth Cuthbert of the music de-
partment has been trying to get
"Oklahoma" as a production for a
long time; however, this is the first
for amateur production.
During ail four years of the produc-
tions while Frances has been at East
Carolina. Dr. Cuthbert has been head
of the music department, assisted by
various voice instructors and the dra-
matic instructor has been Dr. Eliza-
beth Uttenback of the college English
department.
t! ink that without two such
people as these, a production of this
calibre could not be attempted or be
accomplished with any degree of suc-
cess says Frances. "Therefore she
continues, "I would like o encourage
anyoi t musi major or not a music
major�to try out for these produc-
tions, because if you are lucky enough
to receive a par: as a dancer, singer
or a character role, it will be a grand
experience and one not easily for-
gotten
Frances thinks tha- the most en-
joyable experience of her life has
been taking part in these production
even though the work is long and
hard.
Frances had had only two years of
voice lessons before entering college.
Since then she has taken voice each
year.
It is the ambition and intention of
Francs to go into musical comedy in
(television after her graduation in
May. She will begin her advanced
studies in music in New York this
summer.
So, to you, Frances, we here at
East Carolina wish you a life filled
wi h happiness and success.

Las; week's article "Food vs. Stu-
dent" in Around the Campus brought
forth many favorable comments from
the students (but adver.se comments
from the administration). However, a
member off the administration gave
us a little information as to the rea-
son things have not been up to par
in the cafeteria recently. It seems
that the lei. chen of the cafeteria is
undergoing a remodeling job begun
last August and which should be
finished in about another month. Aft-
er this remodeling job is finished,
we hope that the students can look
for. much improvement, (and if the
food does not meet the standards
which the students expect, we hope
that hey will not hesitate to consult
ihe cafeteria officials).
You and Your Date
Where shall we go tonight? What
can we do? Invariably these questions
are asked by dating E.C.Cers. When
there is no dance, swimming meet,
enti rtainment series, or ball game
scheduled�what's left?
Firsit of all, there is the good ole-
fashdoned parlor date. Here can be
spent a few hours in conversing,
studying, or looking through the mag-
azines and newspapers provided. Jar-
vis Hall's parlor even boasts a tele-
vision set. Perhaps the girl friend

How about chatting over a cherry

Irons Says Columnist
Hill Made "False And
Irresponsible" Remark
Dear Editors:
An article entitled "Food vs Stu-
dents" written for the January 25,
1956 issue of the East Carolinian by
Miss Janet Hill contains false and
irresponsible statements about food
served at the college cafeteria. In
this article it is stated that "the
infirmary may v.rify" Plness result-
ing from food eaten at the cafeteria.
The gastrointestinal disturbances re-
ferred to, on the contrary, had no
connection whatever with food eaten
at the cafeteria but were merely
representative of the "intestinal flu"
prevalent both on and off campus at
this time. .People who eat at the
cafeteria regularly, state that there
is no truth in the statements made
concerning the cafeteria in the article
"Food vs. Students It is regrettable
that such misinformation has ap-
peared, and I trust that my letter
may appear in the next issue of the
college paper.

East Carolina's student section has
brought about a hot controversy in
the pasft few weeks concerning thedr
conduct at home basketball games.
' jtsiders, as well as campus offi-
cials and students, have expressed
disappointment in the "apparent poor
ortsmanship" that our students
have shown at recent ballgames. One
high officer of the administration
shew d open dismay earlier this sea-
son about the "POOR ELON" cheer
that sprang up from the ECC bleach-
ers during the Pirate 105-�9 rout
over the highly-rat:d visitors.
Booing Unnecessary?
Several tilts this year in Memorial
Gymnasium have brought forth jeers
and boos from Pirate fans that have
been cited by some observers as ter-
rible conduct for a school that sup-
posedly has an enrollment of adults.
Officials, interested outsiders, and a
few stray students have made fre-
quent remarks that the booing is
degrading to our institution and is
absolutely unnecessary.
This things, however, has TWO
sides to it.
Perhaps Buccaneer fans have been
somewhat demonstrative in their ac-
tions at recent home games�possi-
bly in a way that is not entirely
pleasing�but, the spectator reactions
can not be classified as bad sports-
manship.
Granted, booing is not the most
pleasant form of expression in ex-
istence. It is, however, a natural
moans of communication for the spec-
tator. After all, there, are only three
ways a fan can express himself at an
athletic event: He can cheer, he can
boo, or he can keep his mouth shut
and make no noise at all,
Silent Boo's Best?
There are those who would apply
the oM swylng, "if you ean't say
something nfce, don't say anything
to this situation. This suggestion is
completely ridiculous. No sane fan is
going to cheer happily when his team
is receiving a bad shake, and if he
remains silenjt, school spirit would
became as extinct as bundling. Booing
is as natural to the fan as is cheering,
and (unpleasant as it may be) must
be accepted as a necessary evil.
It is a spectator's rightful privi-
lege to express his likes and dislikes

over the proceedings at ballgames.
He has paid his money to be enter-
tained, to see a good contest, and if
poor officiating or unkind action on
the panL of an athletic participant
threatens to throw a bad light on
the evening's baU'le, he should (and
undoubtedly does) voice objection.
This in itself is not bad sportsman-
ship.
Often, spectators act in bad taste,
booing for the sake of booing, and
without just cause. But it seems un-
likely that the arena would be full
of these kind of people, and that
they would all have the same trouble-
making idea at the same precise mo-
ment. When a large body of fans re-
acts violently to something in a con
test, it can usually be justified.
It should be noted that many times
the boos and jeers are in favor of
opposing players, if the latter are the
ones receiving an unjust treatment
Prejudice is one thing�we're not
discussing that�but the spectator's
right to assert himself is another.
We feel that East Carolina fans
are fair, capable of judging and per-
forming good behavior, and entitled
to a good boo whenever the situation
calls for it.
Coach Howard Porter's quintet will
be out to avenge their only league
setback tomorrow night when they
play host to Western Carolina's un-
predictable Catamounts. This "make-
or-break" contest, as far as the Buc3
ar i concerned, wili be played in Me-
morial Gymnasium with game time
slated for 8 o'clock.
All interests concerning the affair
will be aimed at two big things. Tha

leg and second is the possibility of
a 46th victory m Memorial Gym.
James Still Out
East Carolina is in fair shape for
the contest after taking it easy game-
wise. The last game was with Mc-
Crarys Eagh s last Thursday night
when the Eagles suffered a close
S7-77 setback. Western Carolina's last
outing was with North Georgia on
Monday. The only thing hurting the
Portermen at present is the ansence
of Fr i .James from the line-up due
o a dislocated shoulder. Harold I-
�rni and Harry Blevins have the
inside track on the replacement task
and both Ingram and Belvins will
see a lot of duty at the guard slot
tomorrow night.
The Catamounts put forth a tight
defense against the Pirates when the
two dashe 1 on the former's home
grounds a few weeks ago. Inability
to hit from the outer circles led to
bhe Buc defeat, 73-68. Without James

defensive tactics th, t will no doubt be

Coach Boone has high hopes of

much more can be expected from the

If jroa have not secured your

admittance to the game.
Upon presentation of your
identification card a single ad-

be given you (free of charge).
This ticket is not transferable.
This ticket may be obtained by
going by the athletic office in

initely the top scoring threat for the

As usual, Don Harris and J. C.
Thomas are expected to lead the way

Lanky Guy Mendenhall and Nick
Nichols, if in top form, should hit in
the double figure bracket.
Conference, Effects
On the bright side of things, a
combination of an Elon defeat and an
East Carolina win could tut the Bucs
far in front of their hard court rivals,
but on the dark side of the picture,
fn. Elon win and a Pirate defeat
could prove disastrous as far as the
Pirates' -eign of the North State
Conference Is concerned.
The Christians boasted an impres-
sive 6-1 mark as of Monday, while
ECC presently holds an 8-1 record.
Both of th:se are league records only.
Atlantic Christian College is the next
nearest competitor for the top spot
with a 5-2 mark.
Western Carolina possesses a 5-3
conference won-and-lost record, but
always proves to be trouble to the
top teams, especially East Carolina.
It was the Catamounts who knocked
the Pirates out of their bid for the
crown last year an i they could orove
to be giant killers again this J ear.
With the "jinx" of Memorial Gym-
nasium again dominating the local
spotlight, ar,d the fact that the Buc-
WCC tilt is strictly a toss-up, Sat-
urday morning "second guessers" will
certainly have something to talk
about and will probably start their
argumentative conversation when the
sound of the buzzer ends tomorrow

A GOOD PLACE TO EAT
"Good Food Means

Kappa Sigma Nu, a local fraternity
and the only one of its type at East
Carolina, was founded here October
19, 1955. Is purpose and aim shall
be to promote fellowship and mutual
trust among its members, to uphold
the traditions and ideals of the col-
lege, to encourage excellence in schol-
arship, and to inculcate in its mem-
bers the highest ideals of Christian
manhood and good citizenship.
This fratrnity was formed for
the purose of adding to the soeial
life of its members and students of
East Carolina College. Members of
this fraternity have as a standing
project the encouragement of stu-
dents to remain on campus over the
weekends and to provide adequate
entertainment therefor.
Membership in the fraternity is
open to all regularly enrolled male
students who have been at East
Carolina for at least one quarter and
have a three average. The first pledge
class of the fraternity is now being
selected. lit order to set a precedent
of naming their pledge classes after
people who have served the school,
the members unanimously voted to
name the first pledge class the Dr.
John D. Messick pledge class.
A special project of the group now
ge.ting considerable attention is the
sponsoring of a literary magazine
composed of writings by students of
tne college. Other special projects
are being pinned and will be an-
nounced later.
Serving as advisors of the fraterni-
ty are Dr. E. W. Hirshberg of the
English department and Dr. J. H.
Stewart of the Social Studies depart-
ment. Officers of the Kappa Sigma
Nu are Jimmy Phelps, arohon; Jack
Beaman, treasurer; Dick Newell, sec-
retary; Charlie White, warden; and

An excellent and very entertaining
performance o- "The Barber of Se-
ville" by Rossini was presented to a
capacity crowd in McGinnis Audi-
torium last Monday night, January
23. The performance given by the
members of the Grass Roots Opera
was on? of outstanding acting as well
as sieging and was given with tre-
mendous vivacity and feeling.
The story of the opera centered
around the colorful and dynamic bar-
ber of Seville, Figara. This was play-
ed exceptionally well by William
Beck whose plots and schemes finally
.rought the two lovers, Rosina, played
by Diane Holland, and Count Alma-
viva, played by Raymond McGuire,
together in matrimony. However,
Figaro did not accomplish this with-
out some forced assistance from Ba-
sil io, Rosiva's music master played by
Ad c Dantre, as well as interference
from Dr. Bartalo, a physician and
guardian of Rosina, played by Robert
Bird, whose antics add life and
laughter to the entire opera.
Also, adding interest to the plot
is Bertha, the maid to Dr. Bartalo,
played by Catherine Frantzis, who
sings a comical ditty about the un-
fortunate situation in which some
people are determined to get married.
Also, aiding considerably to the plot
of the story were the servant to the
count, Fiorello, the Guard, and the
notary, all of which were played by
one actor, David Witherspoon.
The stage settings and scenery
were very good but simple, presenting
a background that would blend in
and not detract from the singers.
Also, the pianist did a grand job of
accompanying the singers and opera
moving. Therefore, a fine perform-
ance of singing and acting, which
will long be remembered, was def-
initely presented by the Grass Roots
Oera troupe in their appearance
here at East Carolina in "The Barber
of Seville
"Blithe Spirit" is scheduled for
