Let It Snow
An Editorial
Against Amendment Change
A movement has again started to change the selection of
the editor of the East Carolinian. Tthis movement has been in-
stigated on several previous occasions, but has failed to receive
approval of the student legislature.
It is interesting to note that each time this move-
ment is pushed by the same group. It is obvious that this group
would like to control the newspaper and by popular vote they
realize that this could easily be done.
The editorial staff of the East Carolinian feels that the
interests of the student body can best be served by the present
system of leaving such an important decision to the Publications
Board.
Before such an amendment could be enacted, it must
receive a two-thirds vcte of the Student Legislature and a simple
majority of the students voting thereon in a campus-wide election.
A vote on this amendment will come before the Student
'Legislature next Wednesdav night. The East Carolinian urges
I this body to AGAIN VOTE DOWN any amendment which would
subject the student newspaper to the control of any minority
interests.

t For Education
Senator J. W. Fujfeight, f Arkansas and
former presideijjgaflse .University of Ar-
kansas, has released the information that he
plans to introduce to Congress two bills which
would be vital to the development of educa-
tional institutions in our country.
Senator Fulbright explains that there has
been for decades a continual and serious de-
terioration in the general quality of our edu-
cation. He points out that Universities and
technical institutions in Russia are graduating
engineers in numbers some two and a half
times greater than are similar, institutions in
the United States.
HJie first bill would allow an additional
income tax exemption for a taxpayer or a
spouse, or a dependent child under twenty-
three years of age, who is a full-time student
at an educational institution above the secon-
dary level. fVhe exemption may be claimed
bv the taxpayer himself, or on account of a
spouse or a dependent child under age of 23,
who is in attendance on a full-time basis at an
educational institution above the secondary
level.
The second bill would allow a taxpayer,
who is a student in an institution of higher
learning to deduct expenses for books, tuition,
fees, and other supplies necessary to the
c urses of instruction in which he is enrolled.
This I�ill is primarily designed to assist those
students who work their own way through
college, and it would apply to both full-time
and part-time students, whether self-support-
ing or supported bv outside sources.
Senator Fulbright thinks that his two bills
would be advantageous not only to the student
hut also to the government since it would en-
f- n-age and enable a parent to pay his child-
ren's education rather than having the gov-
�nment directlv assume the burden of edu-
cating its citizens.
Also, he points out that a college graduate
v-H receive an average of $100,000 more in
lifetime income than the average high school
graduate will receive. This increased income
will later be taxed bv the government.
The East Carolinian joins Senator Ful-
bright in his efforts to preserve and develop
our educational institutions. We agree that
if the United States is to succeed in its role
of world lpadorshin. we must provide our
citizens with vision, foresight, wisdom, and
the knowledge to compete successfully witn
world problems.

Miss Baby Doll
She's A Doll But
Far From A Baby
BABY DOLL is a doll but she's
no baby.
You'll find her in a slip, bare feet,
and an assortment of moods. Her
hair is straight and uncombed. She
has a habit of sucking her thumb
and thrives on cokes and movie mi-
paten
BUT BABY DOLL has a nice,
healthy laugh and eyes that pene-
trate deeply and make you want to
be seen. And she manages to keep
the hair out of her eyes and looks
very well in a slip.
Baby Doll is beautiful.
If Tennessee Williams has any
more like her up his sleeve and Elia
Kazan can bring her to life as he did
through starlet Caroll Baker, the
television industry had pust as well go
jeddle ita quiz programs and soap
in s'ome other country.
WHEN CARDINAL SPELLMAN
banned the movie, I bought a pocket
size edition of the play. The movie
production of "Baby Doll" is differ-
ent, to say the least, from the ma-
jority of the flicks you've been seeing.
"Baby Doll" features superb act-
ing on the part of the leading char-
acters as well as the Negroes in the
movie, who do practically nothing
but lie around under trees, grin idi-
otically, and oiten manage a few
hearty laughs. The movie was ex-
tremely interesting and entertaining.

Has More Jo Say About "East Carolinianism
�
They Never Change
People never really change. They just
live in different ages. To prove our point we
quote from a 1925 issue of the Teco Echo.
"We hear much about the young people
of today, denunciatory and otherwise. The ra-
pidity with which the younger generation
moves has always been an object of fiery el-
oquence from platform and pulpit, as well as
for tea and backyard gossip. It is true that
many young people deserve these harsh cri-
ticisms, but vouth, eternal youth will ever have
its fling, and therefore should not be con-
demned as a whole any more than mature so-
"Vhe speed, the speed, how fast they go!
But whether vouth realizes it or not, it is just-
ified in the speed they have, Amencamtis,
U'hat is, "Always in a hurry and always on
the go " Not only does youth have the disease
but the entire American people. People have
to hurrv. They have to keep up, or else fall in
the sweeping current of the day. Thus, the
standard is set, not by what individuals think
and say, but by the age itself.
"What is the quickest way? is always
asked when a thing is to be done. And really,
why waste time when a thing is better done
(111 iclcl v
He who is content to go all around the
house to tie his shoe, to dig when he might
turn more soil with a plow, to walk when he
might ride, to stick by a never rise job, is
ouite a good example of what a young- man
will become if he is satisfied with himself.
The fear of becoming a prverbial hermit crab
is goading young people into the fastmoving
tide of the human river, and the battle that
ensues keeps them from becoming stagnated.

East Carolinianism!
This "East Carolinianism" Ls a new
expression, having been coined in
last week's East Carolinian by col-
umnist Bryan Harrison. But Mr.
Harrison failed to elaborate suffi-
ciently on the issue.
Says the columnist, "When winter
sets in, a dull, boring, unstimulating
atmosphere settles on the campus
Perhaps this "creeping" atmosphere
has seeped in and settled on his brain
instead of the campus.
I plead the gr at cause of East
Carolinianism, the embodiment of the
distinctive doctrines, systems, ideals,
and practices of our fair institution.
Should not this new expression
ef fine and noble order, depicting
a true picture of East Carolina Col-
lege?
Vet, Mr. Harrison was most blas-
phemoua in his testimonial. Father
Time himself has never been so pre-
sumptuous on the t; irty-first day
of December.
Beep! Beep! Old Tom had better
move off the highway right fast-
like, (or a dating roadrunner is
whining this way. I'll prove we col-
lege .students aren't completely life-
less after all.
This, in my o inion, is th� exciting
connotation of East Carolinianism:
friendly people, coffee breaks in the
Soda Ship. Dapper Dock's hand-
shaking, martiality of the marching
band. Billy Arnold's liberalism in
cartoonism, the parking controversy,
free movies on weekends, Phelps's
petitions, dancing on the patio, bush
whacking, ringing the victory bell,
those pedapu.shing professors, the
laundry's belching smoke stack, Jim
Butler's joviality, crowding around
the TV on Sun Jay nights, junior
hirdmen on the march, and more
women than any other college in the
state.
Join me in f is great crusade. Let
the rafters ring with praises in-
stead of gripes. Let'9 adopt a thumbs-
up attitude.
Now you might reply: This is ths
age of Baby Dollism and realism, not
idealism. However, ideals are meant
to be norms and goals. And how can
we ever expect to support the name
of East Carolina if we don't expect
great things from one another?
But Mr. Harrison expressed his
desire to see the cats moved and
more school spirit displayed in a
most unspirited manner. Should he
expect of others what he himself
doesn't even practice?
Although thus most recent ism,
East Carolinianism, may not be des-
tined to take its place in the Hall of
Fame alongside other isms of note,
it is destined to inspire much pro-
found thought.

I don't believe the fastest talking
Yankees are narrow minded enough
to believe that the South is made up
Bolely of Archie Lee's and Baby Doll's.
Baby Doll could have been a north-
ern gal or a westerner.
Did you ever think of the dozens

duced in a New York setting. Yet,
no one really believes New York's
population is all Damon Runyon-type
characters.
As you know. East Carolina is pri-
marily a teacher's college and many
of the students here are planning to
be teachers. I admire this group who
have chosen a career that offers a
small salary, little prestige, and hard
work. Their only compensation is
self-satisfaction.
Lo e in their hearts, a light in
thei eyes, nobility in their purpose�
that is the future teacher.
But they worry me, some of them.
They have an idea they, can take
courses in education and psychology,
walk into the classroom with a "Good
Morning Miss Dove" smile on their
faces and be ready to handle any
teaching situation. They imagine
themselves as some kind of giant
drill that is going to bore holes in
innocent little brains and pour in
all the vast store of knowledge that
they themselves accumulated in col-
lege.
There are those with the noble
purpose. To them, education is the
answer to the world's problems. If
everybody were educated then ig-
norance would cease to exist. People
would quit killing each other. They
would find mates, best suited for
themselves. There would be no more
petty jealousies and desires.

hands politely folded, just waiting

Somehow a picture pops into my
mind of a sleek appearing individual
with a half-peroxided mop neatly
intertwined in ducktaiis, faded levis
worn around the knees, the charac-
teristic key c'rain down to his ankle,
a three day growth of beard, and a
cigarette hanging from his sneering
lip, who comes in and slumps down
in his seat in that typically vulgar
posture.
I asked one of them one time what
she would do if one of the little dears
got out of hand. 'Oh, we learn how
to use disciplinary measures in our
education courses And then she
imagines rapping a grimy little hand

thinh their picture of twentieth-
century youngsters is a little ana-
chronous. A few years out of high
school themselves and already our
future teachers are pedagogues. They
are in fact, living in another age.
This is not the age of Tom Saw-
yers and Huck Finns where naughty
pupils scrawl dirty pictures on slates
and dunk pig tails in ink wells or put
tacks in chairs. This is the age of
Elvis the Pelvis, rock 'n roll, and
hot rods. This is the age ox scream-
ing, yelling juvenile delinquents who
roam in gangs, drink beer, and rape
teachers.
Although I don't join ray classmates
in planning to teach for a living, I
think it is among the finest jobs a
person can devote his life to. As a
matter of fact, I wouldn't mind being
a teacher, for it does have definite
advantages, if, however, I ever did,
I believe I would try to be a little
more realistic in my approach to
the modern student than many of
my colleagues and I would not try
to expect too much of education.

be excused absence list that we now
use t excuse cuts is outdated in the respect
that it requires a great deal of time and
ad tape that could easily be eliminav
with the use of a more up-to-date System.
It was evidently devised when East Carolina
had a few hundred students instead of a
few thousand. With a smaller enrullm-
the system probably worked very well I

Several students have cited exampk 1
which show the awkwardness of tru- pn sent

course he was charged with three oven

the absences was more than glad to make
correction, but considerable time and n

Last year a committee studying tl

that individual blanks be used for each cut.

A'so. v hen the. student goes to the pro-

knows thit his absence has been excused

when I was reading an essay written by a

time to do nothing but think, read, and pon-

it's well on the way to gross a for-
tune.
As I said before, "Baby Doll" is
different and entertaining. But if

who have seen the production, they
will probably tell you the same thing

And then there are those dedicated
souls who have the humble purpose.

To The Editor:
Thank you for the comments on
Ava Gardner, in your latest issue
of fte East Carolinian. It was in-
deed witty and good. I was glad, ai
an alumnus, to see that the students
are taking: a broad, and unbiased view
of certain, pertinent issues.
Indeed "what'n the hell does Ava
owe Smithfield?" was a very pointed
and decisive note to end the resume
with. It is absolutely ridiculous for a
small town, such as Smithfield with
the obvious mind of a "small town"
to j ass censorship on a great and
true arti.st such as Miss Gardner.
We who are engaged in the teaching
of the arts, and who are faced with
the task of trying to raise the stan-
dards of artistic taste are constant-
ly faced with the problems that
arise from the local enthusiasm and
approval of such stuff as "hill-billy'
and other trite mediums of enter-
tainment (I will not call them art)
when, at the same time, the same
agencies are all too willing to cast
aside the true artist, and the art
that he or she stands for, because
they are not willing to accept the
principles of the American Consti-
tution, or rather the UJS. Constitution,
that each man is free to choose his
friends. I would like to close with
one question that you might pass on
to your readers, and that is if Miss
Gardner is guilty of the things that
their minds believe, and if local
persons participate in the same acti-
vities, does her notoriety make hers
any worse than that that exists here,
at home.
Please feel free to print any part
or parts of this letter, if you should
like. Thank you, and congratulations
an your effort.
Sincerely,
Don Roebuck, class '63
