FRIDAY, MAY 11<lb/>
ess<lb/>
Congratulations, Buc<lb/>
Looking through the pages of the new Buc-<lb/>
caneer, this writer felt a mixture of emotions,<lb/>
remembering the good times, noting the old faces<lb/>
that were gone and those of the seniors who<lb/>
would sooii be gone. It is really a memory book,<lb/>
capturing those events which can never be re-<lb/>
lived, but will come to mind for many years<lb/>
to come.<lb/>
Speaking of the book as a whole, the editor<lb/>
and staff are to be congratulated for their fine<lb/>
job and distributing as soon as they did. How-<lb/>
ever, words of praise can not begin to be as pleas-<lb/>
ing as the realization that the yearbook will live<lb/>
on as a permanent memorial to those who were<lb/>
a part of the complex process of publishing it.<lb/>
The long lines of students who waited in the<lb/>
auditorium attested to the fact that the Bucca-<lb/>
neer is a cherished item on this campus. Every-<lb/>
one likes to see his friends' picture and even his<lb/>
own, modest soul or not. After the newness is<lb/>
worn off, the annual will become a valuable<lb/>
student directory, a way to place the name with<lb/>
the face.<lb/>
Students noted the "new look with the ac-<lb/>
tivities first, and the well-chosen dedication to<lb/>
Dr. Poindexter, and have been commenting fav-<lb/>
orably. No book is perfect, however, and the<lb/>
incoming staff faces the challenge of attempting<lb/>
to make next year's annual bigger and better<lb/>
for our growing college.<lb/>
Only with interested workers offering to put<lb/>
forth some effort will the Buccaneer be able to<lb/>
go forward. Now is the time for those students<lb/>
who are planning next year's courses and extra-<lb/>
curricular activities to consider joining this pub-<lb/>
lication staff. There is always a job that needs<lb/>
doing and someone has to do it. Why not let<lb/>
that someone be you??JFR<lb/>
Controversial Currents<lb/>
Will Ike's Popularity Last?<lb/>
by Bobby Hall<lb/>
Jimmy Ferrell<lb/>
Just An Idiotic<lb/>
Disturbance A<lb/>
Look At The'Buc'<lb/>
T'S QUITE INTERESTING to<lb/>
note that those students charged as<lb/>
fading troublemakers in last week's<lb/>
atttmpted "pawty raid" were freah-<lb/>
men. I hope the News and Observer<lb/>
and The Daily Reflector readers are<lb/>
aware of that fact.<lb/>
Maybe next year's Student Govern-<lb/>
ment Association election could be<lb/>
held on some nice, warm spring night.<lb/>
Around ten-thirty, just wiheti things<lb/>
oegin settling down around the cam-<lb/>
pus, elections committee chairman<lb/>
Wiley Teal could streak down the<lb/>
lra!ls of Urn stead and Slay yelling,<lb/>
"We're going after the lingerie in<lb/>
Ragsdale<lb/>
No. 2: Pros and Ons On Social Frats<lb/>
Will They Prove Beneficial?<lb/>
MEANWHILE, other committee<lb/>
members could set up the polls in<lb/>
Wright Circle, intercept the male<lb/>
students as they came tearing<lb/>
through to iRagsdale, and induce them<lb/>
to help elect those people to decide<lb/>
the fate of their quarterly activity<lb/>
fees. The returns would undoubtedly<lb/>
set a record.<lb/>
There would be a great disappoint-<lb/>
ment among the would-be raiders, of<lb/>
course, after learning there was no<lb/>
raid, but tihat they were merely<lb/>
tricked into doing someting construc-<lb/>
tive for a change.<lb/>
President Eisenhower's popularity has<lb/>
shielded him as the Manchurian border did the<lb/>
Chinese Reds during the Korean war. Democrats<lb/>
have been reluctant to attack the President per-<lb/>
sonally for fear of public reaction. Now the<lb/>
Democrats have changed their campaign strat-<lb/>
egy. Why? Before the Minnesota primary was<lb/>
held the President had been attacked only by the<lb/>
Democratic National Committee headed by Paul<lb/>
M. Butler. Due to the Minnesota upset of the<lb/>
Stevenson forces by Kefauver, Stevenson had<lb/>
to change his campaign strategy. He began to<lb/>
shake more hands and turned his attention direct-<lb/>
ly to the President.<lb/>
Stevenson questioned Ike's health and the<lb/>
feasibility of a part-time Presidency. He linked<lb/>
the President to Secretary of State Dulles in<lb/>
responsibility for, as he called it, the deterior-<lb/>
ation of our foreign relation. "Reluctance to face<lb/>
the facts was his reply to Ike's veto of the<lb/>
farm bill. Not only in Stevenson's defeat in<lb/>
Minnesota do we find why the Democrats are<lb/>
beginning to attack the President personally. The<lb/>
farm districts have encouraged the Democrats.<lb/>
Dissatisfied farmers have reflected their feelings<lb/>
at the polls during the current primaries. How-<lb/>
ver, it was the veto of the farm bill that broke the<lb/>
long immunity of the President. Before this<lb/>
capitol hill Democratic leaders had symbolized<lb/>
"be kind to Ike Iftiey had not openly attacked<lb/>
the President. The veto was too much! Senate<lb/>
majority leader Lyndon B. Johnson made the<lb/>
official Democratic response to the President's<lb/>
veto. Senator Johnson attacked the President's<lb/>
farm record. He documented his discourse with<lb/>
many quotes and with newsreel shots from the<lb/>
1952 campaign to point out inconsistencies in<lb/>
the President's position. "The President ban<lb/>
veto the farm bill, but he can't veto the farm<lb/>
problem he asserted.<lb/>
The greatest antagonizer of the President is<lb/>
former President Harry S. Truman. Mr. Truman<lb/>
labeled Ike as a "do-nothing President" and said<lb/>
that he had compiled "one of the most amazing<lb/>
records of political betrayal" in memory. As the<lb/>
National election moves forward you can expect<lb/>
plenty of the traditional campaigning, regard-<lb/>
less of whether it is on television or not. The<lb/>
Democrats will have the charges, will the Re-<lb/>
publicans have the answers? Tune in next No-<lb/>

i.iNTEREST IN THE SGA election,<lb/>
class elections, and student govern-<lb/>
ment in general has reached a low<lb/>
ebb at East Carolina, as returns<lb/>
of recent class elections will prove.<lb/>
The progress of such activities de-<lb/>
pends solely upon the initiative of<lb/>
East Carolina's future upperclass-<lb/>
men?the freshmen and sophomores<lb/>
of today.<lb/>
Yet, they waste their time creating<lb/>
idiotic disturbances!<lb/>
Fraternities can fill a definite place<lb/>
in college life by giving men an<lb/>
opportunity t? choose their intimate<lb/>
friends and associates. Individuals<lb/>
can gain trough contact with their<lb/>
friends and fraternities, 'provide a<lb/>
congenial atmosphere where members<lb/>
can enjoy the companionship of their<lb/>
fellows. A fraternity can be a force<lb/>
which leads to a lasting friendship<lb/>
and social bond; it is a democrati-<lb/>
cally conducted organization, devoted<lb/>
to fellowship and achievement.<lb/>
A fraternity house could serve as<lb/>
living quarters and tend to relieve<lb/>
housing 'problems which have arisen<lb/>
from inadequate dormitory space for<lb/>
men students. Loyal alumni will re-<lb/>
turn to visit in fraternity houses as<lb/>
they would visit in a home, and thus<lb/>
strengthen ftie tie between graduates<lb/>
and the college.<lb/>
Many distinguished persons have<lb/>
belonged to fraternities while in col-<lb/>
lege, including nine presidents of the<lb/>
United -States. In spite of the oppo-<lb/>
sition from certain educators there<lb/>
are over a hundred social fraternities<lb/>
and sororities in the United States<lb/>
with over 1,400,000 members. I am<lb/>
hoping that many East Carolina Col-<lb/>
lege students will soon be able to<lb/>
say with pride that they are in the<lb/>
ever increasing number.<lb/>

Social Fraternities?<lb/>
Good Or Bad?<lb/>
by Frank G. Fuller<lb/>
The question posed by the title of<lb/>
this short article is not an easy one<lb/>
to answer for it aplies a "yes" or<lb/>
"no" response. Actually, it would ap-<lb/>
pear that both "yes" or "no" could<lb/>
be correct. The real question tfrat<lb/>
needs to be answered is, "Does the<lb/>
good that comes from social fra-<lb/>
ternities on a campus counterbalance<lb/>
the possible harm?"<lb/>
Many educators, including myself,<lb/>
may appear to be opposed to social<lb/>
ous to the personality of the mem-<lb/>
bers of the fraternity. And wlhat<lb/>
about the person not pledged? Or<lb/>
the fellow who is financially unable<lb/>
to joHl? Since fraternities tend to<lb/>
dominate the social life of a campus,<lb/>
the people not joining are left out<lb/>
of most social activities, which, we<lb/>
believe, is injurious to their person-<lb/>
ality development.<lb/>
The seco.d reason educators tend<lb/>
to oppose octal fraternities is that<lb/>
they are administratively hard to con-<lb/>
trol. Supervision is difficult. Any<lb/>
college administration has an obliga-<lb/>
tion to parents to provide tJhe high-<lb/>
est type of social, moral and intel-<lb/>
lectual exp riences for their children.<lb/>
Social fraternities make it more dif-<lb/>
icut for the administration of a<lb/>
colleg- to fulfill this obligation.<lb/>
The two major joints of arjrument<lb/>
us?.d in advocating social fraternities<lb/>
are that:<lb/>
L? they improve campus morale.<lb/>
2. tt.ey provide a focal point for<lb/>
improved campus social life.<lb/>
My experience in the matter indi-<lb/>
cates that rather than serving as a<lb/>
cohesive force in campus life, they<lb/>
may actually become divisive in their<lb/>
influence. Rivalries spring up among<lb/>
fraternities and more ratfher than<lb/>
improving actually deteriorates. Fra-<lb/>
ternities tend to stress loyalty to the<lb/>
fraternity rather than loyalty to the<lb/>
college. Loyally to the college means<lb/>
'unproved morale.<lb/>
?If' social fraternities tend to be-<lb/>
come the focal point of campus life<lb/>
(and th -y do!), is tf .Ls a good thing?<lb/>
What about those nbo don't belong?<lb/>
The campuwkie social activity pro-<lb/>
gram is definitely weakened. Many<lb/>
students are left out, and what's<lb/>
more important, many feel 1ft out.<lb/>

explanation about fraternities would<lb/>
be highly beneficial to the student<lb/>
body.<lb/>
Here at High Point College the<lb/>
installation of National fraternities<lb/>
has meant a great deal in our social<lb/>
betterment. We have national rec-<lb/>
ognition, friends and associates in<lb/>
colleges and universities throughout<lb/>
the United States, and a sincere feel-<lb/>
ing of companionship to men of the<lb/>
Greek letter organizations.<lb/>
College fraternities bave come far<lb/>
since birth. They have taken deep<lb/>
root in our higher educational sys-<lb/>
tem. To be well educated a person<lb/>
must be socially accepted and con-<lb/>
fident and what better way is there<lb/>
for a college man to express .his so-<lb/>
cial desires and energy than in ?<lb/>
fraternal group? Today fraternities<lb/>
are considered to be a wondrous in-<lb/>
strument for developing young men<lb/>
for responsible leadership.<lb/>
Without fraterniti? the social life<lb/>
of High Point would be entirely null<lb/>
and void. Fraternities have made us.<lb/>
That's The Way I See It'<lb/>
A Final Comment<lb/>
by Oliver Williams<lb/>
Doesn't time fly away! I suddenly re<lb/>
this while writing this last column of the<lb/>
Writing a column can really be a great<lb/>
of fun. In nine inches a week (twenty-four<lb/>
a year) one can say so much?and make so<lb/>
enemies, too!<lb/>
While looking over "That's the Way I S<lb/>
(alias "Controversial Currents" fall and<lb/>
quarters) it seems that the favorite topici<lb/>
the year have been the parking problem,<lb/>
fraternities, and oh, yes! segregation.<lb/>
At the first of the year the parking pre<lb/>
was one of the most controversial topics. I<lb/>
pose it will be a controversial one for next y<lb/>
columnists, too, since very little has been ac<lb/>
plished, except talk.<lb/>
Social fraternities have been disci<lb/>
throughout the year, but the ball has just hU<lb/>
rolling here at the last. I suppose they, too,<lb/>
make good discussion topics for the columns<lb/>
year.<lb/>
Many of you have told me that segregaf<lb/>
has been discussed enough, but I must make;<lb/>
final comment. I am afraid that some of<lb/>
readers still do not evaluate very justly my<lb/>
conscious and ever aware of our tion on this subject. Some correspondents<lb/>
?ocial responsibility to society for the 1 accused me of being biased and among<lb/>
touchstone of Creek-letter brother- things demagogic. I have not meant to be si<lb/>
hood is fraternal love.<lb/>
Fraternity men, no matter what<lb/>
their affiliation may be, have a bond<lb/>
which brings them together and keeps<lb/>
them ever close. The fellowship<lb/>
which a fraternity promotes and the<lb/>
ambitious idealism which gives rich<lb/>
color to the background upon which<lb/>
fraternity life rests, receives high<lb/>
praise of college officials. The fra-<lb/>
ternity fosters youth before it has<lb/>
been awed by the skepticism and the<lb/>
cynicism of age. .It may never inspire<lb/>
another genius; it may never bring<lb/>
In my considered opinion it would forth another great man; but it will<lb/>

I'm especially happy to see the<lb/>
now arrangement which places em-<lb/>
phasis on student government and<lb/>
othur extra-curricular activities. They<lb/>
are certainly the backbone of college<lb/>
life and are appropriately placed.<lb/>
I'm glad to see, too, more space<lb/>
given to the playihouse and its ac-<lb/>
tivities. The use of homecoming spon-<lb/>
sors make for a much better feature<lb/>
section, and the added variety of<lb/>
queens in the fraternity section,<lb/>
which tended to be somewhat bare<lb/>
last year, is a great improvement.<lb/>
be best to str -ngthen student morale<lb/>
and improve campus social life<lb/>
through an already existing frame-<lb/>
work of organizations. The goals can<lb/>
be achieved in this way without the<lb/>
fraternities and it might be well to possible disruptive influences of the<lb/>
list here some of tfte reasons why we social fraternities<lb/>
feel this way. Ilin the first place,<lb/>
social fraternities tend to foster so-<lb/>
cial distinctions of a spurious char-<lb/>
acter. They set up false goals. They<lb/>
tend to make an individual feel su-<lb/>
perior to others, not because of real<lb/>
achievements, but because of iden-<lb/>
tification with an exclusive organi-<lb/>
zation. The real motivation for join-<lb/>
Broadway Comments<lb/>
It is my understanding that the<lb/>
administration of East Carolina Col-<lb/>
lege has lifted the ban on National<lb/>
fraternities and placed the situation<lb/>
in the hands of the students as to<lb/>
whether national fraternities would<lb/>
This, many educators feel, is injuri-<lb/>
ng is to feel superior to others, be allowed to come on campus or<lb/>
have given to thousands of college<lb/>
men the golden three of friendship,<lb/>
a.id in that valuable intangible alone<lb/>
it will have justified most gloriously<lb/>
its existence.<lb/>
Affiliation with National fraterni-<lb/>
ties has aided us greatly at High<lb/>
Point College and it is my sincere<lb/>
wish that the student body of East<lb/>
Carolina College will see fit to allow<lb/>
them to come on your respective<lb/>
campus.<lb/>
Sincerely,<lb/>
Stan Broadway<lb/>
(Editor's note: Mr. Broadway is<lb/>
president of the North Carolina Eta<lb/>
Chapter of Siffma Phi Epsilon, na-<lb/>
but when I think of the way other sections<lb/>
upon the South as a result of the turmoil we<lb/>
going through, I can hardly help but getting<lb/>
around the collar.<lb/>
The only reason I have spoken out so at re<lb/>
ly against integration is because of the way<lb/>
it is being forced upon us. I believe that intej<lb/>
tion will eventually dominate the South.<lb/>
the Negro race advancing as it is, we can<lb/>
nothing but offer it equal positions in socij<lb/>
And the Negro is advancing in the South-<lb/>
rapidly than in other sections!<lb/>
It is true that there are many practices<lb/>
laws in our section that should be altered 1<lb/>
abolished in order that the Negro might conti<lb/>
his advancement. These create the problems<lb/>
we face in the future, and are undoubtedly<lb/>
as serious as many Northern writers, who<lb/>
trying to tell the world the "real" story of<lb/>
South, would like for us to believe.<lb/>
Although I do not believe that ws can<lb/>
cessfully accomplish immediate or forced<lb/>
gration, I do not mean to be the prejudiced<lb/>
regationist that I have been accused of beil<lb/>
I appreciate the many letters and commei<lb/>
that I have received throughout the year. I<lb/>
sorry that I could not print them all.<lb/>
H?pe to see you next year.<lb/>
not. As President of North Carolina'tional social fraternity.)<lb/>
I would like to thank all the readers of Con<lb/>
troversial Currents and hope those returning<lb/>
next fall will continue to read the column. There<lb/>
will be plenty of political propaganda from Sep-<lb/>
tember through November.<lb/>

Former Co-Editor Nears Graduation<lb/>
IT'S HARD to realize that this is<lb/>
issue No. 25?the last paper until<lb/>
next September, (fit seems barely a<lb/>
month since we were struggling with<lb/>
issue No. 1.<lb/>
' Publication work is fascinating and<lb/>
nerve-racking. The year has been<lb/>
iilled with deadlines, cutting classes<lb/>
to meet those deadlines, daily menus<lb/>
of sandwiches and cokes, and at times<lb/>
the newspaper staff was forced to<lb/>
ignore their social life and studies<lb/>
so that the presses could roll.<lb/>
Administrative officials tell us that<lb/>
we shouldn't make such sacrifices,<lb/>
but it's impossible to publish a college<lb/>
newspaper without doing so.<lb/>
DOTH JOYCE SMITH AND I are<lb/>
especially indebted to Oliver Williams<lb/>
and Jan Raby, who put a lot of time<lb/>
and effort in this year's paper as<lb/>
managing editor and assistant editor<lb/>
compared to the scant salary they<lb/>
receive. Without their help, the work<lb/>
of otfher staff assistants, and our<lb/>
friends down at Renfrew Printing<lb/>

paper would have been impossible.<lb/>

This is it?the last issue of the ?D.Vy Jones Locker" has proven to dent before the close of this quarter.<lb/>
East Carolinian before the end of<lb/>
the spring quarter and the beginning<lb/>
of a wonderful three months vaca-<lb/>
tion! Some of us will undoubtedly be<lb/>
working all summer while others will<lb/>
just lie basking and dosing m the<lb/>
summer ?un. However, before we say<lb/>
good-bye until next fail, we'd like<lb/>
to bring to memory some of the<lb/>
recent events that have taken place<lb/>
in our college life.<lb/>
Deep Bine Sea<lb/>
Last Saturday sight, juniors, sen-<lb/>
iors and their dates gaily whirled<lb/>
beneath the depths of the ocean sur-<lb/>
rounded by rare and colorful fish,<lb/>
dams, snails, mermaids, and an octo-<lb/>
pus, with seahorses surrounded by<lb/>
?be the most enchanting and colowful<lb/>
dance of the year, and it was cer-<lb/>
tainly a most appropriate Junior-<lb/>
Senior. Orchids surrounded by coral<lb/>
and diamond studded seaweed are<lb/>
certainly in order for Edith Roxlgera<lb/>
and the decorating committee who<lb/>
certainly did an outstanding job!<lb/>
Good or Bad<lb/>
New, we turn to the more serious<lb/>
side of recent events. In thia and<lb/>
recent issues of the East Carolinian<lb/>
many pros and cone concerning the<lb/>
induction of national social fraterni-<lb/>
ties here at East Carolina have been<lb/>
discussed. Arguments el the social<lb/>
seaweed" overhead ? all briefly f fraternity and what it will do for the<lb/>
caught up or one magic event.<lb/>
teg in a fish net of<lb/>
Even an old eubmerge<lb/>
are chest gave way to the ?n?<lb/>
ehantment of the evening by serving<lb/>
s? the picturesque bsfcgroua?l for<lb/>
the sbatterfcof! We believe thai<lb/>
coHeg boy have been campus-wid.<lb/>
Occasionally, someone has brought'<lb/>
$ the question of social sororities<lb/>
for the girls, but predominant in th<lb/>
arguments are the fraternitiee.<lb/>
Therefore, we thmk that tfot preWeni<lb/>
should certainly come before the sta-<lb/>
in the discussion of this problem<lb/>
we would like to point out some of the<lb/>
following arguments for and against<lb/>
social sororities.<lb/>
According to a big mid-western<lb/>
university, if social sororities and<lb/>
fraternities are going to be organised<lb/>
for the good of the school, the stu-<lb/>
dent body membership in these or-<lb/>
ganisations should be en hundred<lb/>
per cent Sororities and fraternities<lb/>
otherwise organised would cause def-<lb/>
inite group or social distinction<lb/>
thereby lessening the friendly campus<lb/>
spirit. .<lb/>
Also, concerning the scholastic ef-<lb/>
fort, an inadeojuately organised so-<lb/>
rority is up atgaintt the possibility<lb/>
of run havkig goc?d study condition<lb/>
However if prepetty organised Hi<lb/>
ftvrority could have hlfh SfMssiie<lb/>
standing as a retirees, sr mm<lb/>
ix rship, thus putting greater m0m<lb/>
sis on gsradea and aohelsstfe sMily;<lb/>
This being the last issue of the East &amp;<lb/>
linian, I hardly know what would be an app<lb/>
priate column. Perhaps we could run the yet'<lb/>
events in review or make some philosophy<lb/>
suggestion for personal betterment. But neitl<lb/>
is appealing. . . . Traditions? Of course!<lb/>
We hear a lot about traditions at other<lb/>
leges and universities throughout the stt<lb/>
Strangely enough, no one seems to be consci(<lb/>
of any existing traditions here and we d: hi<lb/>
them. For instance, there is that old wood<lb/>
bucket, bo-hunk, that resides here more oft<lb/>
than it does at (with hesitance I write this n<lb/>
name) Atlantic Christian College. This brii<lb/>
to mind a rather abstract definition of traditio<lb/>
that way of thinking which becomes your o<lb/>
upon existing for some uncertain length of til<lb/>
in a particular environment. So it is with AC<lb/>
Then there are other types of traditions-<lb/>
that of having one of the most beautiful oolkj<lb/>
campuses in North Carolina. Our faculty, whoi<lb/>
aim it has been to teach and not just to hold<lb/>
sions, are among the highest trained in the entii<lb/>
Southland. Our graduates with B. S. degrees al<lb/>
respected throughout the United States for the<lb/>
awareness and "know-how" concerning educ<lb/>
tion. And for the other degrees that are noi<lb/>
being conferred, the tradition is in the makii<lb/>
The Buccaneer gives an excellent interpi<lb/>
tation relative to the subject, 'The spirit of Ea<lb/>
Carolina results from the spontaneous exprc<lb/>
sion of social, educational, spiritual and sporl<lb/>
manship activities of the college students,<lb/>
they work toward the double goal of adulthc<lb/>
and graduation<lb/>
And what will I remember most about Eaa<lb/>
Carolina this past year, my first at college? It<lb/>
traditions, its social life, its faculty, its campus<lb/>
No, not any of these but instead the great<lb/>
"bunch" of people with whom I have ever assc<lb/>
ciated and especially the upper classmen wl<lb/>
made my adjustment to college such an efforth-<lb/>
thing.<lb/>
A twenty-one gun salute to East Carolina!<lb/>
What is the most striking difference<lb/>
tween the high school and college education<lb/>
programs in relation to the ending of the rt<lb/>
uiar academic year? It is the very obvious ff<lb/>
that in college students work diligently right ui<lb/>
to the day before final examinations while in higl<lb/>
school tiMj is taken out to discuss the next day i<lb/>
social or some trivial graduation exercise. Ii<lb/>
general, the pace of Huook work slows graduallj<lb/>
down. Not so here. If anything, it accelerates<lb/>
biology students well know in their insane<lb/>
for those obnoxious six-legged creatures,<lb/>

having1 made it possible. It wasn't<lb/>
uch of a snap for Pop to drivt<lb/>
'?nt town here to pull eight hour-<lb/>

try to work the farm too. It was<lb/>

walk. He br.aued deeply and squared<lb/>

Buc Trackstcrs Finish With Win Over<lb/>
Hampdcn Sydney; Enters NS Tournament<lb/>
The track team of East Carolina<lb/>
College will again display its strength<lb/>
Saturday and this time the foe -will<lb/>
be other colleges from the North<lb/>
State Conference. Elon, High Point,<lb/>
Catawba, Appalachian, Lenoir Rhyne<lb/>
and Atlantic Christian are all ex-<lb/>
pected to enter the meet. Elon is<lb/>
expected to be the toughest opponent<lb/>
for the Bucs. In last year's North<lb/>
State Meets held at High Point Col-<lb/>
lege, Elon took first place honors<lb/>
and East Carolina's Jim Henderson<lb/>
grabbed the individual honor of the<lb/>
meets by being selected as the out-<lb/>
standing performer.<lb/>
by Bill Boyd<lb/>
Sam Dickerson combine their scoring<lb/>
eiforts at Karmville, Virginia Tues-<lb/>
day as they led their squad to a 63 Va<lb/>
to 58 win over a stubborn Hamp-<lb/>
den-Sydney College squad. "Jnjun"<lb/>
Jim continued to dominate the scoring<lb/>
spotlight a8 the versatile athlete took<lb/>
tour first places to give the Bucs<lb/>
and himself a total of 20 points.<lb/>
Maynard and Dickerson nailed down<lb/>
three second places each to pick up<lb/>
nine .points individually. The outcome<lb/>
of the meet was not decided until<lb/>
the low hurdles event. Henderson's<lb/>
first place in that department prac-<lb/>
tically tied the meet but Maynard's<lb/>
Henderson is again<lb/>
expected to' second place by inches clinched it.<lb/>
, get behind their track squad and<lb/>
prove that they want and will accept<lb/>
organized varsity track at East Caro-<lb/>

Th;? North State Meets at Bur-<lb/>
lington on Saturday will be the last<lb/>
time Pirate fans will be able to see<lb/>
their squad in action as it is the last<lb/>
regular meeting of the year. Student<lb/>
support will be a big element con-<lb/>
ceraiag track in the future. The work<lb/>
?.hat the squad has accomplished this<lb/>
year is a virtual stepping stone to<lb/>
wv.at it hopes to do next year in the<lb/>
fight for track to be recognized as<lb/>
a regular college varsity competitive<lb/>
sport.<lb/>

the event.<lb/>
High Point's Bill Huagele was<lb/>
ranked as the top-seeded man, due<lb/>
to his fine performance this year<lb/>
as the number one man on the de-<lb/>
fending champion team.<lb/>
All the schools in the North State<lb/>
loop were represented in the matches.<lb/>
However, it was generally thought<lb/>
that<lb/>
Pi <lb/>
Other top men for the Pirates in<lb/>
the point department were Cliff Buck<lb/>
in the mile, Ed Hurst, pole vault,<lb/>
Tom Scribner in the broad jump, and<lb/>
Charlie Bishop with a second spot in<lb/>
the 440. Jim Meades, Foster Morse.<lb/>
Bob Patterson and A. J. Rose also<lb/>
figured in the scoring.<lb/>
Earlier in the season East Caro-<lb/>
lina defeated Wake Forest in a tri-<lb/>
angular meet and now they have<lb/>
recently defeated Hampden-Sydney,<lb/>
a member of the Mason Dixie Con-<lb/>

proven itself to be stronger in the<lb/>
cinder sport than Washington and<lb/>
Lee University of the Southern Con-<lb/>
ference. They outscored the Lexing-<lb/>
ton, Virginia College last week in<lb/>
Farmville. As many sports fans do<lb/>
not realize, track is not even recog-<lb/>
nized as a varsity sport at East<lb/>
Carolina and yet the team has proven<lb/>
that it is worthy of Atlantic Coast,<lb/>
Southern Conference or Mason Dixie<lb/>
competition. However, the college<lb/>
does not have adequate facilities to<lb/>
even hold a home meet.<lb/>
The team has certainly shown that<lb/>
it will not let the college down in<lb/>
representation but Pirate fans have<lb/>

aatsasea's mmvs ?? ????awMn?s<lb/>
??<lb/>
getting plenty of attention on the ECC campus for the last four<lb/>
or five years. Richmond and V.P.I, are both strong Southern<lb/>
Conference teams and will give the Pirates their first taste of<lb/>
that brand of football. We will play stronger teams next year<lb/>
and in doing so, should increase our "school spirit'<lb/>
The enrollment of next year will probably hit its highest peak<lb/>
Lhu far, and if the student body gets behind it. East Carolina<lb/>
could develop u school spirit that would rank with such colleges<lb/>
as the University of North Carolina, Duke and Wake Forest. Tn<lb/>
my opinion, the "school spirit" at ECC hasn't been as good u<lb/>
possible, and thert. should be steps taken by the SGA or some<lb/>
organization to promote more spirit.<lb/>
Some of the steps that mip-ht be taken are: (1) Teach the<lb/>
school songs to incoming freshmen by a better system; (2) us?<lb/>
some anima! as a team mascot; (3) furnish transportation to<lb/>
away-trom-home games, by chartering a bus: (4) choose several<lb/>
boys for cheerleader positions, and also develop better methods<lb/>
of selecting cheerleaders. (5) more organized pep meeting-<lb/>
(6) our band attending the games not too far from hom? ; (7) the<lb/>
students sticking by the team whether they win. lose or tie.<lb/>
Should these steps be accomplished, it could definitely help the<lb/>
schrol spirit and make next year a banner one in all sport-<lb/>
Alma Mater Neglected<lb/>
Mny of the students at East Carolina College don't even<lb/>
know the Alma Mater, much less the school's fight songs. Thu<lb/>
statement is no exaggeration. There should definitely be some-<lb/>
thing done to alter this situation. It seems that (tie fight songs<lb/>
have lost some respect. During the past basketball season, many<lb/>
ECC students remained seated when the tunes were played. Next<lb/>
year there will be a large number of freshmen, and it seems that<lb/>
there should be some way provided to teach them the songs early<lb/>
in the year. Iast year, the songs were delivered once or twice<lb/>
in ohapel.<lb/>
Many schools smaller than East Carolina have a mascot, and<lb/>
surely it looks as if a grwing institution such as ours would have<lb/>
ont. Even our arch-rival. Atlantic Christian, has one. a bulldog.<lb/>
This would be a good project for some fraternity. Ioeal merchant-<lb/>
'would probably help out. Last homecoming, a student was dressed<lb/>
as ? Pirate and performed different tactics. Why couldn't we have<lb/>
this at all our games?<lb/>
Why Not Mah Cheerleaders<lb/>
It seems that it would be a good idea to have several boys as<lb/>
cheerleaders. Ienoir Rhyne. Elon and ACC all have boy cheer-<lb/>
leaders, and those schools were proclaimed as showing the most<lb/>
school spirit in the recent North State basketball tournament.<lb/>
There are several boys on campus who served as cheerleaders in<lb/>
high school, and would be willing to take the position if the stu-<lb/>
dent body would co-operate with them. It seems that the students<lb/>
should have a say-so in the electing of cheerleaders.<lb/>
Perhaps the possible coming of national fraternities would<lb/>
help the school a great deal. Cheering sections would show more<lb/>
life, and they could perform many duties which would aid ath-<lb/>
letics.<lb/>
Pep meetings in the past haven't been too successful. It seems<lb/>
that the students haven't shown too much interest and taken the<lb/>
part they should. Many things could be done to increase the inter-<lb/>
est, such as a bonfire and a student-toand march up to the square<lb/>
This should increase the merchants' support of cur teams. This<lb/>
would also aid in helping students learn school songs.<lb/>
In the past, the Bucs have had little support away from home.<lb/>
In talking with other students. I have found that many believe<lb/>
that at least one bus could be filled if chartered, and maybe more.<lb/>
This could be a project of the cheerleaders, and would give tten<lb/>
transportation to the games. By arrangement with the bus com-<lb/>
panv, it might be arranged so that the cost wouldn't be too much.<lb/>
It would give a big boost to the team.<lb/>
Band Should Make Tripe<lb/>
The band has done a great job for the athletic events at ECC,<lb/>
and must be commended. However, it does seem that they could<lb/>
make some of the out-of-town trips, at least in part. Lenoir Rhyne<lb/>
had a small jazz band that added greatly to their school spirit.<lb/>
I think if the student body would stick together for a change<lb/>
thesi steps could he put into effect, and the school spirit at ECC<lb/>
could be greatly improved. After all, we are the fourth largest<lb/>
chool in the state, and it is up to the students to help make ECC<lb/>

of the sorority would be concerned<lb/>
with the managing and sponsoring<lb/>
of dancas. Also, they would and<lb/>
could possibly create more spirit in<lb/>
athletic events, and the planning of<lb/>
homecoming, although more stress<lb/>
would be placed on inter-fraternity<lb/>
or sorority events.<lb/>
Another argument against sorori-<lb/>
t  however, is that with the es-<lb/>
tablishment of such organizations<lb/>
the jrirls would want sorority houses,<lb/>
thu- interfering with the dorm life<lb/>
here at college.<lb/>
Also, for a number of years East<lb/>
Carolina was referred to by many<lb/>
as a party school, which is definitely<lb/>
not tru?. However, the installation of<lb/>
national fraternities and sororities?<lb/>
even though the so-called "big<lb/>
?stools" have them?would only cause<lb/>
it to acquire such a name again as a<lb/>
nsult of the familiar association of<lb/>
the word.<lb/>
Also, some students say that these<lb/>
oiKanizations would furnish more en-<lb/>
tertainment for the students. How-<lb/>
ever, East Carolina is certainly get-<lb/>
ting to be large enough to furnish<lb/>
adequate entertainment for the stu-<lb/>
dents so that they will not have to<lb/>
have "organized" social parties.<lb/>
It is definitely true that social<lb/>
sororities (and fraternities) could do<lb/>
a lot in the advancement of the col-<lb/>
Uige. However, we are afraid that if<lb/>
too much stress is placed upon the<lb/>
economic and social status as re-<lb/>
quirements for membership of these<lb/>
social organizations very serious<lb/>
problems will arise. Therefore, we<lb/>
think that it is the personal duty of<lb/>
every student to consider very care-<lb/>
fully the problem of national social<lb/>
sororities and fraternities, as the ul-<lb/>
timate results wWl affect each and<lb/>
every student here at East Carolina.<lb/>
This is a problem in which reasons<lb/>
bot' for and against these social<lb/>
organizations should be carefully<lb/>
considered in order to reach the best<lb/>
possible answer.<lb/>
Finis<lb/>
Well, this about sums up some of<lb/>
the recent activities 'around the cam-<lb/>

Who's Who<lb/>
Continued from page 2.<lb/>
in 1953, Joyce entered East Carolina<lb/>
College. Her decision to attend this<lb/>
college was prompted by an address<lb/>
by Dean Leo Jenkins the preceding<lb/>
year at Selma's commencement ex-<lb/>
ercises. His outstanding speech so<lb/>
favorably impressed her that she<lb/>
changed her choice of Wske Forest<lb/>
to DCC.<lb/>
Joyce, now a senior, at present is<lb/>
doing her student teaching in the<lb/>
first grade at the Wahl-Coates Train-<lb/>
ing School. Concerning this she states,<lb/>
"Student teaching has been most in-<lb/>
teresting and it has certainly con-<lb/>
vinced me that teaching is the right<lb/>
field for me. To be able to help<lb/>
children and watch their growth gives<lb/>
me much joy and satisfaction It was<lb/>
due to her busy schedule as a student<lb/>
teacher that Joyce relinquished her<lb/>
duties as co-editor of this paper at<lb/>
the beginning of spring quarter.<lb/>
To Leave ECC<lb/>
In July, after the first session of<lb/>
summer school, Joyce will graduate<lb/>
with a B. S. degree in primary edu-<lb/>
cation. "To leave "East Carolina is<lb/>
to leave many friends, many happy<lb/>
memories, and a wonderful school<lb/>
she remarked. Co-editorship of the<lb/>
East Carolinian Joyce described as<lb/>
her greatest honor while in college.<lb/>
The friendly environment around the<lb/>
campus has been the one factor im-<lb/>
pressing her moat about Eaa Caro-<lb/>
lina.<lb/>
Next year Joyce will hold a teach-<lb/>
ing position in the Winston-Salem<lb/>
City School System. She is eagerly<lb/>
anticipating her future in this field.<lb/>
