Legislators Wednesday night over-
whelmingly approved two constitu-
tional amendments dealing with the
college Entertainment Committee and
representation on the Summer School
Student Government Association.
The introduction of an amendment
concerning the editor-selection method
of the East Carolinian which was
scheduled for debate was withheld.
President Dock Smith received a
solid backing in his efforts to re-
vise a portion of the third section
of Article 17 in the constitution con-
cerning the members and duties of
the entertainment committee.
Kappa Sigma Nu President Jimmy
Phelps withdrew his previous notice
concerning a change in the editOT-
selection metfrod of the East Caro-
linian because of the "general dis-
interest of the student legislature
and because these legislators had
accepted false information on other
bills He said he would not present
it again.
Approval
Solons approved the addition of

ment Committee members have voted
in favor of it at a meeting when a
quorum was present" to the tihird
section of Article 17 which states,

Smith, when he presented his pre-
vious notice last week, explained that
he felt there was a defect in the cons-
titution because it was possible for
a few to select tihe school's enter-
tainment programs.

this date. However, their approval
is expected in the near future.
WWWS can be heard at 19.3 on the
FM dial. It will operate on a power
of 3 kilowatts and can be heard for
a radius o approximately 40 miles.
The first broadcast scheduled
for early January was postroned be-
cause of technical difficulties. Faulty
parts were discovered in some of the
equipment recently received and new
ones had to be made.
Progress
Despite minor difficulties wftich
bamoered the opening of the station
since operations began, the Radio
and TV committee has made tremen-

of broadcasting from the campus.
Recently the studios were moved from
Austin Bui1 'ing to Joyner Library.
Also a direct wire has been con-
structed from the gym to the new
studios. The wire was constructed
ror the purpose of broadcasting col-
lege athletic events taking place in
the gym.
Steady progress in the program-
ming department is making headway
under the supervision of Miss Rosa-

Inter'Fraternity Council
Chooses Tucker As Advisoi
By OLIVER WILLIAMS
Representatives from four social
'rat-rnitiea on canpus met earlier this
eek ;nd beg;an ormulation of plans
for an interfraternity council.
A: the initial meeting, the repre-
eni c ose Dr. James H. Tucker,
Dean of Men, as advisor for the
group.
n was also decided at the first
'iet that representatives from
thei fraternity councils in the state
vould be contacted before the local
rroup m? 1e any definite plans for a
constitution or elected officers.
Jenkins Speaks
Commenting on the probationary
period which the fraternities are now
undergoing, Dean Jenkins, who spoke
bo tiie representatives at the first
meeting, said he thought the Board
of Trn�tees would do their part in
obtaining fraternities if the boys
vi1! do their part.
do not think they would have
"�one this far if they did not plan to
go further Jenkins stated.
Frat Halls
Also discussed, were the possibil-
ities of fraternity houses and fra-
ternity halls in the dormitories.
Dr. Jenkins told the representatives
that these matters would have to
come before the Board of Trustees,
but since they worked on a very loose
agenda, he thought that it could
possibly be mentioned at the next
board meeting.
The Dean seemed very optimistic
about the possibilities of fraternity
halls in the dormitories, but stated
that not only would it need ap.rovr.
from the Trustees but would also
create problems that would have to
be worked out with the housing di-
rector.
Dean Jenkins also told the boys
that the Trustees had requested that
an administrator work with the group
in the position as an advisor. He
recommended that Dean Tucker be
selected for this office. The group
gave unanimous approval to the re-
quest.
Here For Business
In talking to the representatives,
Dean Jenkins reminded them that
most people who are in college now
are here for business. He asked them
lo remember tu,s ;n planning for their
activities and initiations.

In Men's Dorms
In the last few weeks there has been
considerable complaint about the janitorial
service and drink machines in the men's dorm-
itories.
Because many of these complaints have
reached our office, the East Carolinian has
taken a sincere interest in both of these prob-
lems and has attempted to do our part in cor-
recting them.
Last Week we investigated the janitorial
service but did n t express our views in an
editorial since v e did not feel that there was
a meeting of the minds as far as the duties
and expectations of the janitors were con-
cerned.
When v e investigated the janitorial ser-
vice, Mr. Duncan t Id us that he would com-
pose a circular explaining the duties of the
janitors and distribute this to the male resi-
dents.
We feel that through this media that the
problem can and will soon be solved.
Now we are concerned about the drink
machines in these dormitories. Te main com-
plaints seem to be that the machines are very
i ften out of order and that many of the men
students are losing money since the machines
fail to work after the money has been de-
;i sited in their
One can expect such a thing to happen
occasionally since it certainly does happen in
any coin-vending machine. However, the com-
plaints here se m to be that it happens more
than occask nally.
We are sure that the men students appre-
ciate the service of having drinks and sand-
wiches available in the dormitories, but we
l' also that this problem which could prob-
ably be easily alleviated should receive some
careful attention.
Alcohol And Safety
"Live dangerously, die young
"It's an old saying, but very up-to-date
in its philos phy. Some people just don't seem
to realize just how dangerous it is to attempt
to drive an automobile on slippery winter
roads while under the influence of alcohol.
It seems that it is impossible for those who
can do so well in Matn in a classroom to rea-
lize that "alcoh- 1" and "safety" run on two
parallel lines; they will never meet for the
benefit of the individual who thinks "he" can
"hold his drinks" and gets out on the open
highway and risks the lives of himself, his
fellow passengers and those other passengers
in cars who are forced to share the road
with him.
Rep rts from safety councils, research a-
gencies, and highway police neither faze such
drivers nor change the statistics of the annual
death toll. It gives us great cause to wonder
if safety education and propaganda actually
have any corrective effects on those who need
it m st. Perhaps if the great "Hellfire and
damnation" minister, Jonathan Edwards were
alive today and could direct his effort against
drinking by drivers we might have a revival
toward more safety on the highways.
However, it appears that today we have
no effective means of reaching the individuals
who have closed their minds once they get be-
hind the steering wheel to every safety factor
that should be retained and instead they con-
centrate on the two hundred and some horse-
power to be used "to race the other guys home"
and-to "out-drag" some of his buddies.
As college students, and future teachers
and leaders in our communities, we should
realize our responsibilities to those who will
be following our examples and attempt to set
forth go d driving habits for them to fol-
low. Say to your high school buddie "Let's
have a cup of c f fee before we go home in-
stead of "How about one drink for the road?"
It's always a go d policy to remember that
"you are your brother's keeper Will you
risk your life and his on the open highway
by drinking? � JFR

A Four-Year
Profile Of The
Campus Politician
HIS ADMIRERS look on him as
another Caesar; his envious rivals
think of him aa a Machiavelli, lack-
�'i the evil genius' cunning, of
coarse; and he pictures ihimseif as
Sir Lancelot, complete with sword,
shielj and shining armour. Those of
us who do not fall in any of these
t;gorifs are divided in opinion,
me feeling he is a nagging mo-
a ato and the others casually re-
"zrd him as the perfect ass.
His sincerity is noble and bis
modesty is touching. His sacrifice
�mostly of his precious studies�
compels us to feel that we are some-
times lazy and ungrateful. But ttoen
we rest assured, for he always gives
��- the feeling that his shoulders are
' -oad enough to carry on the great
trvamim. He is our only hope in this
� declared war with the administra-
tion and the faculty, for without
him we would be the helpless victims
of tf eir ruthless tyranny. His great-
ness, of course, lies in his unflincb-
i ax courage. We look in awe at his
intrepid actions. Most orf us aw
convinced that it would be almost
impossible to get an education if it
weren't for hia great reforms.
BUT HIS accomplishments are
- nificant, the most noticeable one
1 eing his ability to drag out stu-
dent government meetings. He floods
the school paper with letters em-
bodying bis particular brand of
statesmanship and containing few
lame attempt? at sarcasm. His
speeches contain those glittering gen-
eralities and lofty ideals that make
s wonder at his maturity.
In his freshman year he acquires
the characteristic "lean and hungry
look but he doesn't become dan-
jrerou.s until his sophomore year. It
is when he is a junior that he makes
hia sudden and dramatic appearance
ir.to governmental affairs. His voice
no longer howls in the wind, but
is dynamic statements and eam-
p.is-haking decisions have us be-
lieve that at last we have found real
leadership. He kind of slowly fizzles
out in hia senior year, but he does
it gloriously, beating you oveT the
head with his preposterous beliefs
and reminding you with hurt
pride what he has done for tihe stu-
dent body. Finally, when we all come
home ten years later, his admirers
ani rivals remember him as the per-
fect ass, and those of us who had
this opinion in the first place can
hardly remember hhn at all.
IF YOU recognize the gentleman
described above, don't be alarmed,
"or he graces almost every campus
with his illustrious presence. If you
fail to recognize him, then I sug-
g�st that you attend a meeting of
the Student Government Association
some Wednesday night and watch
him in action. Ask one of those
public-spirited chaps who is sup-
o.ed to represent you in the stu-
dent legislature to let you alternate
for him. Don't be afraid. Chances
are, he's looking for someone to take
his place. Probably not because he
has any aversion to these dema-
gogues of ivy, but more than likely,
he has a date.
There is one type of campus poli-
tician that I believe I would welcome.
T e female campus politician. You
know, women have really come up
in the world lately, especially in the
tie!d of government. It is amazing
that college women haven't realized
the advantages of using the campus
as a means of practising statecraft.
I would even be an advocate of cam-
pus politics on the condition that
its participants wear skirts. I imag-
ine that some of the mala campus
politicians would don a skirt if they
thought it would help them to gain
followers.
BUT REALLY, isn't all this very
a illy?
Let's face it. It won't get you �
job. It won't get you a husband. It
won't keep you out of the army. So
what good is it?
Some people like sports or TV.
Others prefer bridge or chess. Some,
however, derive great pleasure in
: laying campus politics.
Those who do, do it for kicks. Well
I sav let them. After all, one must
get his jollies while in college.

Impressions
Life is made of impressions�a
blur of light, a pungent smell, a
sound, a sensation.
The things we know, the things
we experience are sometimes trans-
mitted to us in strange and vague
fashion, a blending of so many emo-
tional factors, colors, and feelings.
What will you remember of East
Carolina when you leave? What are
te things that will stick in your
mindMemory records only the most
vivid tlashes of incidents to most
peo,le. There are only snatches of
sound, of pictures, of odors and
colors. These impressions will some-
day be all that remains of your col-
lege career. What will they be?
. . . Austin Building, standing proud
and firm and ancient . . . dusty,
rusting brick, somehow a symbol of
education and all the thrilling as-
pect- of beginning some great enter-
prize . . . In;ide, the odor of waxed
floors, of pencil shavings, of new
books, fresh and crisp pages, the
smell of chalk and wood and people
uddled together of one mind . . .
There are the sensations that come
in a swarm of recollection of when
you walked across campus to and
from classes, books under your arm,
your eyes straight ahead or moving
gently to meet the sea of faces that
pass you, or glancing out over the
Landscape of buildings and green
grass . . . you remember a nod, a
smi:e, a particular way the sun
glinted on someone's hair, the hips
of the girl walking in front of you,
the click or thump of s-oes on pave-
ment, the fresh cool feeling of wind
in your face and the joy of just
walking and seeing and feeling . . .
Perhaps there will be the remem-
brance of cool air in the morning,
whipping about you on your way to
the cafeteria . . . the smell of burnt-
metaiic exhaust, curling in white
wisps from circling cars . . . the
aroma of cooking bacon and bread
from the cafeteria, crisp and decisive
in te early-morning cool . . .
. . . There will be the nights at
Memorial Gymnasium and the start-
ling, living colors, the voices, laugh-
ter and excitement that is always
present at a ballgame . . . there will
be the recollection of wet, glistening
bodies of the athletes, the smell of
pop corn, and cigarettes and sweat
. . . there will be the unleashed,
bursting feeling of sport, of strength,
of cleanliness . . .
You will remember too, fragments
of your classes . . . the hushed ex-
citement or te drawn-out boredom
that prevails . . . the clean, pressed,
fresh white blouses of the girls, their
faces smoothed and powdered and
striking . . . and the boys' faces,
occasionally unshaven, sometimes
bored, often serious, usually pale-
looking in the closed-in light of the
room . . . you remember the droning
voice of the proessor, talking to him-
self; or else, the magic word spell
in wich he held you and the others

radiators, the steps of a passerby
down the hall outside, the patterns of
the sun from the window, printed
on the floor . . .
Or per. aps you'll remember best
the swimming matches, the smell of
chlorine and the heat and the hollow
sound of swimmers splashing in the
pool and the voice of the announcer

watchfulness of the crowd Or
maybe football games come first to
your mind, and you remember the
loud crack of leather and flesh col-
liding with leather and flesh and the
freezing night air and the drunk on
the back row with the irritating
laugh . . .
You may remember long, lifeless
nights under the single lamp with
sleeping books that won't respond,
the taste of stale tobacco in your
mouth, burning, reluctant eyes and
the noise on te first floor of the dorm
that you can hear all too plainly . . .
Then, too, perhaps you can recol-

Readers Say
Dorm Counselor Unjust In Criticism
To the Editor,
In answer to the question presented
by a reader in last week's East Car-
olinian, "Does a College Education
teach uiie to look up or down?" I
feel that a college education teaches
one to be a realist; to see things ex-
act' y a they are, be it the lowest of
society or the elite.
The reader appauently irtferrai
from the article that "skid row" and
a "15-cent martini" were the im-
portant items to be seen in Chicago.
Perhaps she did not read far enough
in the article to find mentioned the
"T.oop" (one of the places she sug-
gested for a tour of Chicago) or
Chinatown.
Does the reader really feel that
the Stock Yards, the dingy-looking
Hull House and the homes of
thousands and thousands of negroes"
are my more desirable to see than
"skid row"? The tour we took in
Chicago was one planned by a touring
service. Can the reader, living a
thousand miles from Chicago plan a
better tour than the sight-seeing
businesses of that city?
If the reader has been noticing
various articles in the East Carolinian
over the past several weeks, she pro-
bably knows that the columnist wri-
ting about the trip to Chicago and I
were attending a national fraternity
convention. As anyone knows, one is
busy at any convention. Having only
one night free to see the city, we feel
that we saw some very interesting
and worth-while sights in Chicago,
including "skid row
Lastly, in regard to "Reader's
Retort I feel that it was unjusti-
:ied criticism.
- �Council Jarman
To Mr. Bryan Harrison.
When in the course of human
events it becomes necessary for an
empty wagon to make a lot cf noise
many people listen but are seldom
taken by the "harsh words Such
must have been the case when you
wrote the article "That Is The Future
Teacher?" in the January 18th issue
of the East Carolinian. Obviously you
haven't taken the time to investigate
and see just what kind of teachers
East Carolina is really turning out.
Why not go by and see Dr. Oppelt
and find out ho- some of the grad-
uates are getting along in their
ield? Are die principals satisfied
with their work?
No doubt some of the students may
have felt that everything will be
"peaches and cream' when they be-
gin teaching, but for your inform-
ation the education department has
made allowances for such people by
offering a course called "Student
Teaching Ask a few of the people
who have completed this course end
see if their reply is the same. I am
sure these student teachera are cer-
tainly aware of the age we live in.
Teacher education has had a long
and tedious journey so dont "knock
the role
Sincerely,
Frank Moore
To The Editor:
Usually the main purpose of a
newspaper is to give a fairly ade-
quate coverage of news and present
it in an unbiased manner. Since I
have felt that the East Carolinian
had always done its best to carry out
these purposes, last week's paper
certainly gives one reason to wonder.
In our school a great deal of em-
phasis is given football and basket-
ball without hesitation. Granted
these sports are considered among
the more popular activities on campus
but in my opinion and I am sure
others feel the same way, lets give
some of the other sports a break.
Week before last the I irate Mermen
defeated VMI, tfiie southern confer-
ence champions and not one word of
encouragement was given in the paper.
Most of the fellows on the team aren't
looking for a pat on the back every
time they turn around but we should
give credit where it is due. Why not
send some of the staff reporters to
the swimming poo! instead of the
basketball court or football field and
see if there is that much difference
in the workout schedules.
This isn't the first time ttris has
happened. Publicity for the But
Carolina Swimming Team has always
been limited in this paper. Coach Ray
Martinet has in � sense worked mir-
acles along aquatic lines since he
has been here and its about time he
and his team started getting credit
for it.
Yours truly,
Frank Moore-

The deceased collapsed in front of the

ted North Carolina University rank
above the Pirate mermen in the Tar
Heel state. Outside this domain, the
name of East Carolina takes on added
significance.
With Martinez at the helm, the first
season of swimming for the Pirates
in 154, was one minus the victory
luster. The second season was a dif-
ferent story. Blessed with a host of
trong newcomers, the Pirate swim-
ming machine ran roughshod over
"�� ormidable opponents as David-
on. William & Mary, Washington
1" iversity, and Clemson.
The third edition under Martinez
p eavert strong but experts won-
'ered if his supposedly weak reserve
strength would pull him through the
gruelling schedule of the coming
�an aign. By comparing the op-
onents' past records, Martinez is
able to figure out mathematically
whether his men have a chance of
defeating the opposition. In the past
two years, on paper, with determin-
ation, the Pirate mermen have sub-
stantiated their coach's predictions.
Best Yet
To date, this year's aggregation
as risen to the heights of victory
beyond expectation. Among the foes
who have felt the winning sting of
the men from East Carolina this year
are William & Mary, Davidson, and
V. M. I.
Another away trip for the swim-
mers took them to Athens, Georgia
was a 43 to
43 tie against this strong foe.
Standouts
Among the standouts on this year's
I are Jimmy Meads, the speed
merchant of the 100 and 50 yd. dash
; Harold Ml Kee, a vital per-
��� in the distance events; Bob
Sawyer, a so; homore who excells in
the backstroke for the Pirates; Jack
Koebberling, a breaststroker of great
tbility; Sidney Oliver, a freshman
who is coming along strongly in the
butterfly event; Ted "Anchor" Gart-
man, one of the seasoned veterans
on the team; Dickie Denton, the lone
on this year's squad; Ken Mid-
f ( a diver who gains more stature
ith eac meet; Mike Williamson,
rho along with McKee dominates tJhe
distance picture for the Pirates;
Steve Wilkerson, Mead's dash mate;
Herb Consolvo, a Norfolk boy who
continually shows improvement; and
Glenn Dyer, the nifty little diver who
teams with Midyette. A. B. Benfield
does a very excellent and outstanding
job as manager of the Pirates of 1957.

In the Intramural's Council League,
a fast development last week, pushed
the ROTC into first place, with an
S-l record. The move unseated the
Country Gentlemen and set them in
a two-way tie for second with the
EPO.
In last week's play, the Country
Gentlemen defeated the Rebels 48-
28 to notch another win. Gary Trion
was high for the winners with 15
points. Dean Robbins added 13. Hin-
ton collected 14 for the Rebels.
The EPO dropped the Bootleggers,
46-43, in a close one. Mattocks and
Patterson had 14 and 12 respectively
'or EPO. Singleton notched 15 for
'be losers.
The ROTC handed the first defeat
of the season to tJhe EPO club, 56-
46, with Nixon and McArthur pacing
the way. They both scored 16 points.
Taylor. Mo Arthur and Swain were
outstanding on defense for ROTC.
For ve EPO. Mattocks collected 20
and Patterson had 12.
The ROTC nlso defeated the YMCA.
Independent Loop
In the Independent league, a two-
way tie for top honors has taken the
spotlight, witih the Black Hawfss
moving up to match the Hot Shot
record at 6-1.
One of the most exciting games
of the week was the 72-37 victory of
the Angels over the Delta Sigma
Rho, Jr. It marked the highest scor-
ing: contest of. the season.
The Hard Timers handed tJhe spec-
tncular Hot Shots their first loss,
42-38. White, of the winners, posted
2 points, while Hot Shot Smith got
17.
Also on the league slate was a
36-30 Tidewater Terror win over the

Minor Miracle
Without the assistance of scholar-
ships or any other gifts to lure out-
standing newcomers, it is a minor
sports miracle that the Pirates have
accomplished as much as they have
n such a short span of time. Each
earn under the tutelage of Martinez
is been one of talent, determination,
and the result of long strenuous
irsetice sessions.
In recent home meets, the Pirate
fans have been present in caracity

it can be attributed to Coach Ray

IT'S FOR REAL!
by Chester Field
any similarity to
a sports car is
purely intentional!
THE '57 CHEVROLET : � : sueet, smooth and sassy! m
It doesn't just look like it lores the road, clings to curves and
laughs at hills. That's the way it goes. Come on in and see
what it does for driving funl
It's not just a coincidence that
Chevy handles and acts like a
sports car. Chevrolet engineers
planned it that way.
They set out to build a car that
would take to the road with crisp,
solid steering and quicksilver
responsiveness. A car with up to
245 h.p. Come try it!
