Dennis Seeking
To Clarify ECC
Drinking Laws
Is beer drinking permissible at
East Carolina?
Student legislator Eddie Dennis is
once again trying to have drinking
laws clarified.
Dennis proposed at SGA meeting
last Wednesday that the sections in
t e by-laws which deal with drinking
'e amended and the motion now
awaits student government action. If
the legislature passes the proposed
mendment change, the proposal will
go before the student body in a gen-
eral election.
Last year Dennis brought up a simi-
lar change concerning the possession
of alcoholic beverages in men's dorm-
itories. That proposal was referred
to committee and the SGA never took
decisive action.
Section B, Article II of the by-
laws states that M . . drinking and
other conduct of similar seriousness
shall be reported immediately to the
p.oper student judiciary . .
The amendment reads drink-
ing while on campus, partaking of
alcoholic beverages in excess of 3.2
alcohol by volume.while off campus,
or being under the influence of intox-
icating beverages
The change will permit beer drink-
ing off campus for both men and
women students, but will not permit
students to drink stronger intoxi-
cants anywhere.
Dennis told the East Carolinian
that there needed to be a definite
statement about this matter in the
by-laws, that the term "drinking"
is vague.

The Freshmen elections were held

imately four hundred freshmen voted
in the initial ballot. A run-off has

s ow observers that this would be a
stellar year this past week as the
student legislators held their second
meeting of the year. The featured
moments of the session came as Pres-
ident Phelps announced that the Bud-
get Committee which had asked for
?73,000 will only receive $64,000. This
will mean that practically all the
organizations on campus wil see the
axe leveled on their appropriation to
ihe legislature.
In answer to why the drastic cut,
Phelps said, "It was believed by all
that our college population would

Dennis Williams and Barbara Smith

is being made which should satisfy
both groups.
The legislators also approved the

amendment to the SGA constitution.
The amendment proposal has been
the focal of quite a bit of discussion
since this meeting.

Integration Resolution
Last year, SGA President Dock Smith
opened the 1956-57 session with a statement
that the Student Government would take a
stand on integration
It was then dropped without further
word or explanation.
This year. President Jimmy Phelps said
in a private interview that his administration
"will look at the integration question and will
pass some form of resolution on it
Phelps stated that he feels the SGA can-
not honestlv represent East Carolina College
unless the 'students make known their feel-
ings and opinions on certain measures. In-
tegration is one of these measures.
With the recent outbursts of violence in
the South over the integration question, and
the frantic pushing of the supreme courts
decision by schools and government officials,
the question is one of urgency that involves
every student at ECC.
Some among us undoubtedly believe that
since the integration question has not yet
actually touched East Carolina, it should be
ignored. In other words, "leave well enough
alone .
Phelps disagrees. Though a resolution,
by definition, is only the statement of opin-
ion of an assembly, and actually carries little
or no weight except in that capacity, the idea
is disliked by some. But Phelps feels that
the students not only have the right to voice
their opinion, but the duty to do so.
Drive Safely
"Slow down and live"?"Take your time,
not vour life"?"If you're over fifty five
you're lucky to be alive These are traffic
safety slogans designed to make drivers more
safety conscious. But just how aware of the
danger will our drivers be when we climb in
the cars this week-end to go home? The only
thing the average driver feels when he gets
behind the wheel is a sense of power, high-
way department officials tell us.
This is the first week-end that freshmen
can go home and of course, the upperclassmen
will be going, too. Freshman or upperclass-
man. you're ready to roar down that road
toward home, and the sooner you get there,
the better. And of course, there will be some
who just have to have a beer or two to enli-
ven the trip. Everyone wants to have a good
time and "we all know that a few drinks
can't hurt a thing It doesn't matter that
the driver begins to take a few more chances,
that he gives in to the temptation of pressing
that pedal down a little harder.
Whether you're the driver who likes to
race with the' other fellow or the one who
passes en the curve or the guy who scoots
along at seventy (while watching for the
cop), you're the person who needs to be read-
ing and heeding this warning?This may be
your first and last week-end home.
Nine chances out of ten you may not only
be risking your life, but those of four or five
other students in your car. Those students
may think that if they make some critical
remark, they will offend you and lose a fu-
ture ride. We say, better to lose a future ride
than a future life.
Think it over . . . and Drive Safely!

Editorially Speaking
The Second Week
THE BUDGET COMMITTEE low-
ered the boom by announcing a few
thousand dollar cuts for various or-
ganizations. The EAST CAROLIN-
IAN was thrown for a $1075 loss and
the BUCCANEER felt the scissors to
the tune of $1500. The reason for this
was simple?so they said. . . less
people here than expected, thus less
moaey to spend?plus more organ-
izations asking for more money. So
we didn't gripe, but are preparing
to make adjustments, which all adds
up to four page issues.
WE WEREN'T KIDDING when
we saad we have carriers for the pa-
per. Arrangements are being made
to deliver the newspaper door-to-
door in the girls dorms and also
placed in the boys dorms. Copies for
day students will be placed in the
College Union Friday morning and
also copies for the faculty will be
placed in the post office lobby on a
table by the departmental mail boxes.
This way we hope that more students
will read the EAST CAROLINIAN
and thus be better informed.
MANY THANKS to those students
who gave an afternoon of service to
the EAST CAROLINIAN at the
printer's shop last week. To publish
an eight page paper we had to in-
sert the middle pages by hand. So
herewith we extend our thanks to
Elizabeth Williams, Martha Ann Mar-
tin, Lois Perry, Wilma Dean Holt,
Lacye Harris, and Martin Harris.
MY APPRECIATION is also ex-
pressed to the manager of the Pitt
t: eater who gave me a courtesy pass
for four months. Now I'll have my
try at being a movie editor.
A LITTLE HELP would be ap-
preciated. I'm collecting those little
red cellophane tapes around cigarette
packages (and similarly wrapped
items) to aid a blind girl in obtaining
a seeing e'e dog. lt takes a lot of
them to make just a pound, so save
them in an envelope and send to box
1063, East Carolina.
SPEAKING OF blind girls, we
have some students here who require
some aid in getting around campus.
Don't hesitate to offer a helping
hand?for you can always spare time
if you try.
VISITING IN GOTTEN just be-
fore "open house" was just like old
times in the Air Force when we had
"GI parties The freshmen girls were
really cleaning things up. Some of
them learned a few new things, such
as how to mop and wax a floor. Home
was never like this, hmm?
WHAT HAS HAPPENED to our
Honor System that was supposed to be
installed in full force this year?
Here's hoping it will be carried out
by the SGA. It is a matter for stu-
dent concern, the only thing is, just
how concerned are our students?
IT SURE WOULD BE NICE if the
Soda Shop would install similar coin
machines in the basement of Austin
as those in the basement of Garrett.
Those students who do not have a
lunch hour because of classes could
easily use the ten minutes between
classes to eat a sandwich and drink
a coke.
IT WOULD BE EVEN NICER if
the dormitories could be wired so
that our FM radio station could be
heard on the radios in the dorms.
AND I JUST DARE Mr. Phelps

theory is, just relax and follow Aris-

worry too much, and when you play,
don't play too much?and if it's pos-
sible, when you study, don't study
too much.

'?HOLD FAST YOUR DREAMS"
is a poem by Louise Driscoll and it
goes like this?
Hold fast your dreams!
Within your heart
Keep one still, secret spot
Where dreams may go,
And sheltered so,
May thrive and grow
Where doubt and fear are not.
O keep a place apart,
Within your heart,
For little dreams to go!

A New Hue
Bv BRYAN HARRISON
The campus politician has taken on
a new hue . . .
You can still see through the glass
he's made of, but he's colored it a
little this year.
Used to he spoke softly, but car-
ried a willow switch.
Now he R eaka loudly but carries
a wet napkin.
Seriously, the new trend has in-
vaded East Carolina campus politics.
Everybody is trying to "hop on the
bandwagon"?if you will pardon the
highly political cliche.
The latest to hop are old men and
girls. Now 1 don't mind the girls,
for they ; rovide variety to a some-
what boring hobby that has hereto-
fore been dominated by males. But
the old men, well . . .
I'll admit the whole thing is pretty
silly, but it takes an even sillier as-
pect when grown men start playing
the game.
The old guard, who were the first
to play the game, are still around
shaking hands, stabbing backs, and
sticking feet in mouths.
The reformers are back trying to
introduce their great campus-shak-
ing ideas such as, keeping the cam-
pus clean and waiting your turn in
line.
The war mongers are still here car-
rying on their mock battles with the
administration.
The economists are still afraid that
someone is going to get more money
out of the SGA than themselves.
Curiously enough many campus
politicians are aware of the dea of
foolishness that is inevitably attached
to them and try to counteract it by
giving their position an air of dig-
nity.
But despite all they do, the lean
and hungry look shows up through
the visors of their shining-armor
headplates.
Their fteling of importance is
usually characterized by standing up
in a 1 ublic meeting and piously an-
nouncing that the following state-
ment is "off the record
This would be annoying to most
college reporters but it make3 me
feel like an Associated Press corres-
pondent in the Court of Saint James.
But it won't be long now until the
petition! and the polls start flowing
and the junior statesman will break
out their atomizers and warm up their
vocal chords for some of those "on
the record" statements.
If you have survived a freshman year
here at East Carolina College you have un-
doubtedly been "exposed" to a course i.
Art Appreciation. When I say exposed, I
make no allusi n to the amount of knowledge
absorbed from the course! However, :
those of us who don't know (and I didn't),
here are a few facts about East Carolina's
constantly expanding art department.

the Grammar Grades and Art in the Prin.
Grades have been combined into one course-
Art in the Elementary School. This gives I
students who need this course more time
more credit, and makes a more sound e
cational approach for the elementary Art
teacher.
The Art curriculum has also added a m
c urse this year. This is Design fr the Th
ater which was planned by the Art Depart
ment in conjunction with the English Dran.
Department. This course stresses scene de-
sign, lighting and construction of the play
production- .
An attempt is now being made by the de-
partment to provide a senior-graduate course
which will be a free elective for the master-
candidates or art students in general.
These are only a few of the "sidelines"
of the art department. As you can see, our
art department is composed of an interesting
variety of courses other tjian "Art

There has been talk of organizing
a two-party system here, which it
really a good idea, for it will mean
that some of this nonsense will take
on the appearance of organization.
One party or two the situation will
never change. For as long as the
lofty idealism is being bombasted
from one corner of Flanagan Audi-
torium to the other, the campus pol-
itician will emerge with hand -out-
stretched.

last year she was the student direct-
or of the choir. Every Sunday she
sings in the Greenville Presbyterian
Church choir.
When Dottie isn't practicing some
phase of music she is usually attend-
ing either a Music Club meeting or
a Sigma Alpha Iota meeting. She has
been both editor and Sergeant at
Arms of Sigma Alpha Iota, a honor-
ary music fraternity. It seems a
wonder that someone who is this
busy consistently makes the Dean's
List, but it is true. Last year she
became a member of Kappa Delta
Pi, an honorary scholastic frater-
nity. When asked how she manages
to make such good grades and en-
ter into so many activities also, she
replied, "Since I'm so rushed I some-
times don't have time to study, io
I've learned to pay close attention
in class. This cuts down the amount
of studying I would have to do
Even Dottie's summers are filled
with musical activities. A few sum-
mers ago she was a counselor her
at Summer Music Camp and this past
summer she taught all musical in-
struments at a summer music school
in her home town. As for future
plans after she graduate this year
she says she will do graduate study
somewhere and then teach. Unless
something miraculous happens, she
ekiims, she won't pursue a musical

To the Editor. The East Carolinian:
For some months now a group of
students have been seeking to enlist
campus interest in the establishment
of a high-quality magazine of the
type which so many colleges sponsor.
So far, their support has been such
that the project has been virtually
abandoned.
To many of us it seems a pity
that the possibilities of our having
a magazine should be so summarily
killed through lack of interest. It
seems all the more regrettable in
view of the fact that we have on cam-
pus a distinguished teacher of writ-
ing in Mr. Pierce, who, incidentally,
is also an experienced magazine ad-
visor, and whose students and others
are producing stories and poeme
which deserve publication as proof of
our devotion to the finest in cultural
achievement, as well as for their
intrinsic merit and readability.
At the very least, would it not be
appropriate for our Student Legis-
lature to authorise the appointment
of a committee to study the maga-
zine question? Surely it Is not too
late to explore completely the possi-
bilities of establishing a new publi-
cation on campus.

"Rain" is the first movie of its type to
be made since a recent revision in the Motion
Picture code lifted a taboo on films about
drug addiction. It is the story of a young junk-
ey (Don Murray as Johnny Pope), who was
first exposed to morphine while being treat-
ed for Korean War wounds. His life as a
civilian, scratching for his daily $40 supply
of dope, dramatizes the horrors he faces
and creates for his pregnant wife (Eva Marie
Saint) and his family.
Newcomer Anthony Franciosa plays the
role of the addict's "brother-keeper which
he held on Broadway and then repeated on
the screen. As Polo Pope he performs one
of the classic drunk scenes of theater history.
Eva Marie Saint, as Celia Pope, seems
too sweet and country-girl a type for the
middle-class New York City working wife.
Shelley Winters, who starred in the same role
on Broadway, caught more of the spirit.
The story ends with Johnny Pope ready
to seek treatment. But with one relapse al-
ready on his record, there is only the faint-
eat hope of sunshine. In fact, the hint is that
the long-range forecast will be more rain.
"A Hatful of Rain" is incomparably
better than "Monkey on My Back" and quite
superior in some ways to "The Man with

Our choice for the "Player of the
Week" award goes to Tommy Jones
for his outstanding play in the Rich-
mond game. An end, Tommy is the
smallest man in the Pirate starting
forward wall.
Although now living in Norfolk,
Va Tommy served most of his prep
nlaying at" Oxford, N. C. While at
Oxford, he gathered All-Conference
aonors and was Honorable mention
for All-State. Local awards were the
Sportsmanship trophy and also a
defensive trophy. He was Co-Captain
.is senior year and went on to play
in the East-West game at Greens-
boro.
The hard-working 165 pounder
spent most of his freeman sea3on
working on defense or offense against
the varsity squads. Boone kept him
out of action under the "bohunk"
ruling which would give im an extra
year of eligibility.
His first two years of playing!
barely earned him a letter, but little
experience was gained as football
seemed to becomt a game lor the
bigger boys.
Last year a flock of ends were lost
by graduation and replacements were
sought. Jones was given an inside
track on the end spot, but most on-
lookers felt that a larger man would
take over be.ore the starting game.
Tommy soon proved that although
a little man, he was not easily pushed
around and wi.en the Richmond game
came up, he was still in the starting
lineup.
At the end of the opening game,
Tommy was a mainstay in the Pirate
lme, which proved to be a credit to
the school. At his flank position, the
Oxford native turned in play after
play and handled his end with satis-
faction. After going through the game
movies, it was apparent that he threw
the kev block on ECC's lone touc
down.
Coach Jim Maliory, end coach, had
igh praise for Tommy's work. "If
:he whole line had blocked like him,
we would have scored some points
states Maliory. Head Coach Jack
Boone also was quick to admit that
Tommy was a fine hustler and a big
asset to the team.
As the Pirates get set to meet
Davidson, it would be wise to watch
Tommy from his end position for his
blocking may pave many a touchdown
(we hope). Although Jones doesn't
excel as a pass receiver, he is still
a dangerous man with his speed and
quickness.

Coach Earl Smith will carry his
"Baby Bucs" to Chowan College to-
day for their opener of the season.
This i? the first season ECC has
been able to have a junior varsity
team in operation, but a good sched-
ule has been prepared in their initial
season.
The probable starting line-up for
ECC will find David Thomas and
Hilton Woolard at the ends, Lee
Singleton and Joe Lewis at tackles,
David Rogers and Wayne Davis at
guards, and Bert Harrell at center.
Stuart Holland will probably get
the starting nod at quarterback wth
George Slaughter at fullback, and
Walkie Hanford and Bobby Paterson
at the halfs.
Chowan, a strong junior college
outfit, will be favorites, but the main
purpose of the EOC program is to
enable their reserves to gain some
game experience.
Tonight at 5:30 p.m. at the Gym
fireplace a weiner roast will open the
Womens' Recreation Association's
first meeting to welcome all new-
comers who wish to join the WRA.
The purpose of the WiRA is to en-
courage the spirit of play among the
women students, to work for the pro-
motion of physical activities among
the student body, and to develop
good sportsmanship. Among the many
activities during the year will be
intra-mural activities, annual sports
day, a house party, and the spring
banquet.
Begiulng the intra-mural activities
will be a program of volleyball du-
ring the fall quarter, and then basket-
ball during winter quarter, to be fol-
lowed by softball during spring quar-
ter.
A special highlight for the WRA
is the meeting of national organiza-
tion, American Federation of College
Women, on campus October 25, a sig-
nal honor for ECC.
This year, for the first time the
intra-mural program will be run on
a dormitory basis which means that
girls will play activities only with
other girls in their dorms. However,
a dormitory may have more than one
team participating. Each dorm has
a student to co-ordinate the teams
so those who wish to start a team
may get more information on the
subject. These co-ordinators are:
Gayle Clapp, day students; Betty
Peele, Garrett; Hilda Roberts, Wil-
son; Peggy .Davis, Jarvis; Charlotte
Fitchett, Fleming; Polly AdamB, Cot-
ten; with those for Ragsdale and
Woman's Hall to be selected later.
Each championship team for each
sport will be awarded a pennant
and Wednesday. Only one league is
present with every team playing the
other once. Schedules and other in-
formation will be posted on the bul-
letin board in the College Union.
Archer stated that a single elim-
ination tournament will be set up at
the end of the season with all clubs,
despite season record, eligible. The
pairings will probably match the No.
i seeded club playing the last seeded
team Ac.
Archer reported that 12 entries
have been made thus far. Some of the
veteran clubs are Delta Sigma Rho,
EPO, Phi Gamma Pi, Pi Kappa Al-
iha, ROTC, River Rats, and Country
Gentlemen. Four new teams have
een added Including a freshman
group and a group from Umstead
Hall.
A pomt system has been set up
this fall by the council. Points will
e givm to the teams in each major
ort and other sports sponsored by
.he council. A score will be kept on
display throughout the season with
a trophy awarded the team with the
most points at the end of the school
year. This team will be named the
"Intramural Champion" of East
Carolina College.
Schedule for next week will be as
follows:
Bad news in the Pirate camp was
announced last week when Dr. Fred
Irons, team physician, stated that
Jerry Brooks would be out for the
season.
The Rockingham senior has failed
to respond to two operations on his
foot during the past winter.
The 230 pounder is a big loss to
the Pirates and leaves a weak situa-
tion at the tackle positions.
Grover Cleveland, while President
of the United States, in 1893 under-
went a secret and successful opera-
tion for cancer of the mouth. In the
October Reader's Digest, Donald Cul-
ross Peattie explains the surgery
was performed aboard a yacht in
Long Island Sound to avoid alarming
the nation then beset with a serious

East Carolina plays host Saturday
night to a team tnat has evaded the
Pirates for the last several years.
The Davidson Wildcats, North Caro-
lina's only Southern Conference elev-
en, invade Memorial Stadium in the
Bucs home opene- of the season. A
capacity crowd is expected for the
tussle.
One big drawing card in the tilt
will be the return of Bill Dole to
Greenville. Dole, the Davidson head
mentor, served as head coach of ECC
.efore taking his new position.
Coach Boone, the present Pirate
tutor, was his assistant. So when
these two schools meet Saturday
night it will mark the first meeting
of pupil and teacher.
The Wildcats are rated three touch-
down favorites despite the quarter-
back situation of Dole's. The Southern
Conference eleven lost two of their
top quarterbacks in the early weeks
of practice and depth at this slot has
been very weak. Charlie Benson, a
eft-handed Floridian, has moved into
the top slot and Dole feels tr.at he
should be able to handle the job.
Elsewhere the Wildcats will field
a strong, experienced unit with their
line being their strong poin. Center
and Captain Bill Price heads the ex-
perienced line. Coach Dole comments
that Price is "one of the best cen-
ters I ave ever coached At the
guards, Bob Stancil and Dale Gram-
ley, both lettermen, have the nod.
The tackles will be manned by Dale
Gramley and a freshman hustler,
Scott Lacy. Dole has been very im-
pressed with Lacy's ability. Craig
Wall and Harold Westervelt will
tart on the flanks.
Backing Benson in the visitors'
'lackfielj will be Paul Barbee, Ralph
Setzler, and Dave Warden. Both Bar-
bee and Setzler are fleet and experi-
nced performers with the latter ex-
pected to be the big man this fall.
Warden is a sophomore, but runs
with 'bulldozer" power.
Turning to East Carolina, the Pi-
rates have spent much time on de-
fense and' fundamentals, the weak
.inks in the Richmond defeat. Coach
Boon has stressed these points and
all indications show that tr.e Bucs
will be vastly improved.
The Pirate line will counter with
Howard Beale and Tommy Jones at
ends; James Faircloth and Larry
Howell at tackles; Ken BurgeBs and
Dick Monds at the guards; and Lynn
Barnett at center.
The backfield may have several
changes with Bob Maynard and Tom-
my Nash probably getting starting
assignments. Halfback Charlie Bish-
op appears to be the only serious
injury and he may be available for
duty. Ralph Zehring and James
Speight will round out the starting
backfield.
Although lacking experience and
game conditions, Zehring is progres-
sing rapidly and should develop in-
to a fine quarterback.
Coach Boone predicts a hard game
against Davidson, but is confident
that his club will play well and per-
haps even surprise his former associ-
ate, Bill Dole.
Game time will be 8:00 at Memorial
Stadium.

The hardest part of this quarter is
trying to settle back into college life,

experts in these fields and will be
completely outfitted in an all-cotton
wardrobe. The wardrobe will include
some 40 garments created for her
by leading American designers.

the new Maid of Cotton will embark
upon a six-month international tour.

thousands of interesting people, In-
cluding mayors, governors, members
io the President's cabinet, other
Washington dignitaiies, and movie

As a reward for a job well done,
a brand new car will be waiting for
her at the end of her wonderful
journey. A car is awarded each year
to the Maid of Cotton by the Memphis

of the close working relationship be-
tween the cotton and automobile in-

After visiting in Germany, Kay
went to Austria, Italy, France, Swit-
zerland, England, Belgium, Luxem-
bourg, and Holland. She stopped in
Canada on the return trip, having
seen 10 different countries on her
first trip out of the United States.
Packing Problems
Packing presented a big problem
because clothes were needed for both
warm and cold weather. Even with a
sup ly of both, Kay was caught once
when it began to snow while she, clad
in a cotton suit, was sight-seeing in
Berchtergarden, Germany.
Italy impressed Kay the most as
Rome was the highlight of her trip.
There she visited St. Peter's, St.
Paul's, the Roman Colosseum and ail
! the famous fountains, which she con-
i sidered the most beautiful part of the
J old city.
Kay especially liked Indonesian
? food -although real Italian spaghetti
I ranks first on the list. Squid, with
the eyeballs still in, was the only dish
Kay couldn't quite digest. She ad-
mitted there were many dishes, such
as the horse meat she ate in Ger-
many, served her that she couldn't
identify.
All the Europeans that Kay met
were friendly, helping her in all
ways possible to enjoy her stay in
their country. Getting to know the
people on trains, in the hotels, and
on the streets gave Kay a deep un-
derstanding of and feeling for their
! way of life. Kay toured Europe in-
dependency and feels that she would
: have missed a great deal on a guided
tour.
Highlights
j A few of the highlights of Kay's
' tour are the carnival in Brussels, a
fair in London, a visit to Westmin-
ister Abbey, the Follies in Paris, a
gondola ride in Venice, seeing Grace
Kelley's castle, climbing the Lean-
ing Tower of Pisa and dining on the
Isle of Capri.
Kay selected one representative
charm from each country, which she
made into a bracelet, and a coin from
each country which also adorns a
bracelet. They are for remembrance's
sake but right now Kay coesn't need
anything to keep thosa wonderful
memories alive. Already she is plan-
ning to return when she graduates.

The Collegians, one of the finest
musical organizations on campus,
have taken definite strides in pro-
gress since their beginning ten years
ago. This year they expect to sound
better than ever in their "music
making
Six new members have joined the
group this year, several of which have
had professional dance band training
and a new vocalist who is "tops"
in the organization's estimation.
June Fuller, the charming vocalist
who hails from here in Greenville, is
a Junior Voice Major.
Soloists for the Collegians are:
Boots Tee Bill McAdams, Bob Flem-
ing who is musical director, Fred
Shehdan, and Willie Gilliam who not
only play? one instrument but three,
alto sax, clarinet, and flute. The
new members are very "jazz-minded
which will tend to make the band
sound "real cool
With high hopes the group is
making plans to "book" their ser-
FARMER
vices for a week's engagement during
the Christmas Holidays through agen-
cies in New York, Norfolk, and Wil-
mington. Other engagements coming
up are: appearing on the television
program "Let's Go To College" here
in Greenville, playing for the "after-
game dance" on campus September
28, and appearing with the football
team November 2.
The Collegians can certainly be des-
cribed as "the band of reknown" of
eastern North Carolina. They have
had a great deal of experience play-
ing for social functions of various
organizations, clubs, and fraterni-
ties both in eastern North Carolina
and Virginia.
It is the hope of the Collegians to
play for more social functions here
on campus since the band was organ-
ized with this purpose in view. If
any club, fraternity, or organization
is interested?contact Ralph STr.u-
maker or drop a note in the office of
the Music department.
i ic new Cadet Group Commander,
Li Colonel Robert 0. Ballance, fcei
selected ff for the year. These
cf'icers. who .vere chosen from a
group of junior and senior advanced
cadets, and were assigned their posi-
s early in the quarter.
