Mallard listed several criteria he
would seek to achieve if elected:

when accomplished, will not only
make the work of the SGA more ef-

(2) To see the students at EC who
have taken the initiative to get self-
help jobs get better salaries.
(3) Complete the rewriting of a
student government constitution with
all the flaws of the present one
ironed out. This I believe should be
accomplished as soon as possible.
(4) To see the SGA work with the
administration in putting forth a
reat effort to help the serious park-
;nr problem on campus.
(5) To look into the matter of
.rivileges for upper classmen.
(6) To help make SGA life, and
college life in general more conven-

(7) To work with students and
professors to bring about a better
intellectual climate on campus.
(8) To look into the matter of
registration.
(9) To put into effect programs
which will bring about a greater in-
terest in SGA as well as a stronger
school spirit.
(10) To see fraternities and soro-
rities devote more interest to the
betterment of the campus and the
student body in general.

The East Carolina Developmental Coun-

Of the 89 N.C. counties represented on
campus, 44 are represented on the Council
o far. By the end of this week. President
Bodenheimer says he hopes to have every
county represented.
The representatives are to speak to mem-
bers of the N.C. General Assembly from their
spective counties in an effort to gain sup-
for E.C.C. Their specific goal at the
tnt is to try to obtain money for some

Ktidget Committee. These items are annex
to the library, an extension to the student
and the remodeling of Slay and Urn-

nit ion and funds is Representative Walter
of Pitt County. Jones told the Council
me people in the Western part of the

ol named E.C.T.C. He suggests that the
to remedy this situation is "to let the
people at home know how large E.C.C. has
wn and to let them know about some of
th- things that we are doing.
This could result in more recognition,
material gains, more new students, greater
interest from alumni, and perhaps more
scholarships provided by interested people.
If this Council is backed strongly by the
ients here and if it does the job correctly
thoroughly. E.C.C. would certainly gain
ch. And in the long run so would every
student here. The more respected a school,
the more respected is a man holding a degree
from it.
In proportion to its size. E.C.C. educates
a very large number of North Carolinians.
There are only about 21G students here who
are from out of state and only 10 students
who are from another country. Someone re-
marked recently that the people out of state

lina than they do of North Caro-
ji Well, this is not true of

Hair On Head,
Grows Beard
By BOB WHITING
There's a man on campus who is
making a career out of college. At
least, he has become a landmark
around the place just like the old
plaque that hangs in front of the
college. I thought for a long time
that he was Blackbeard or Bluebeard
or some creep like that. You know,
ho has one of those funny, long,
black beards hanging from his face.
He really looks funny with his beard
though. You see, he doesn't have any
hair on his head, but he has a geat
mass of it growing from his face.
Wei the reason I tttought he might
be Blackbeard or some Mongolian
horseman was because he always
eave me the impression that he would
someday ride through the campus
swinging a great sword and chopping
heads off as he rode. He seems like
that kind of fellow. You know, the
kind who push little biddies into the
i reek and pull up young corn. He
really gets a big kick out of it. You
know the type.
Old Blackbeard told me after sum-
mer school was over that he was
thinking about getting married and
settling down. This T couldn't believe,
really I couldn't. Well, when the fall
tartei began I saw old Blackbeard
again and he told me that he was
(1 and had three children. Some
ut them were already grown. He's
a a fast worker. He tried to tell
me that he had some miracle pills or
me erap like that that would speed
near about everything. I mean he
'tally sped up things around his
house, but I still can't swallow all
bull. The other day he told me
his wife was about to have another
baby. He said he was only going to
Ie1 her have one this time because it
v a much easier on her, and he would
able to put her back to work in
the fields earlier than usual.
Well by golly. T saw old Black-
beard this morning and he had shav-
ed his beard off. I hardly recognized
him I mean he still had some hair
irrowine over his top rip, but I had
to 'ook for a long time before I could
identify him. His wife mourned for
about a week or so when she saw he
had shaved his beard. She thought it
made him look like Clark Gable on
some goon. She was -really craiy
about that beard, and more than dis-
appointed when she saw it gone. May-
he she thought his face was his head
since it had more hair. Anyway, I
still don't see how she got through
nl! that brush to kiss him; and how
he ever ate is still a mystery to me.
Anyway, old Blackbeard said that he
was about to graduate or something
like that, and that come warm wea-
ther he was going to pack the wife
and kids and plow and cut out of
here. He didn't say where he was go-
ing, but he mumbled something obout
looking for more land to farm. Some-
thing about his wife being strong
enough to pull the plow for ten hours
a day now, and that he just didn't
have that much land on his place.
Blackbeard is really talented
though. He's an actor, playwright,
poet, and ambassador for that seg-
ment of the human race that has been
trod nnon by the powerful forces of
capitalism. His greatest talent Is
shown in his poetry. When he gets in
one of those poetic moods, it is no-
thing for him to write for days and
days. He'll just rock back in his chair
and pull on his long, black beard and
roll his eyes in a circular fashion and
write more poetry than you've ever
seen. He says that if you drink a car-
tain kind of wine, it will help you to
think more poetically. He likes to
press a beer can against the top of
his head and hold it there for hours
with both hands. This helps him to
think more clearly. But when he
really wants to think about some-
thing that requires a lot of medita-
tion, poetry for example, he just
lowers his head and runs it into the
wall. He really is a good poet, but I
am inclined to believe that he Is a
better acrobat. His wife gets on hhn
from time to time about making loud
noises in the house, but he says that
a man's house is his own castle and
that he is allowed to make all the
noise he wants to in it.
Playhouse 90 is about to put the
make on old Blackbeard, I found out.
He said something about recently be-
coming an actor and I remembered
hearing about him being in a play
a while back. This surprised ma be-
cause he had told me before that ha
planned to open a synagogue and
bring lost souls back to life. I kinds
knew this was only a big front
though. He really needs more people
to pull the plow on his farm. You
see, he's really a very sensitive man
and wants to retire his wife from
the fields.

Little Nobody Provides New Regulations;
Screaming Patrons Dissatisfied, Revolt.
"Slovie" Czeck is in! Yes, the boy
made the grade. People are running
through the streets screaming "No,
no. this is insane, I don't believe any
of if' or "It's a lousy Lawrence Welk
joke No. "Slovie" is our new pres-
ident and his plans are guaranteed
to change the entire student outlook
on life.
Considered as a nobody, no one paid
any attention to this young man. But
now he is the big man on campus.
After surviving here only a few
months, Mr. Czeck has really set
the students on fire with his cam-
paign. Although Mr. Czeck's ideas
may appear unusual in this neck of
the college world, he plans to set up
his staunch platform in the follow-
ing manner:
(1) All students are expected to
rise at 6 a. m. so that the guard on
duty can inspect the rooms.
(a) If a half dollar will not

bounce four feet when dropped on
the bed. riding privileges after 12
noon will be withdrawn.
(b) I'nless the trash cans have
been washed in Tide, the students
will have closed-study hours on week-
ends.
(2) No reasons except acute cases
of malaria, small pox and death will
be accepted as legitimate "cut" ex-
cuses.
(a) All unexcused "cuts" will be
dealt with by the armed guard pre-
siding in each classroom.
(!) All excuses must be signed
1 your hometown doctor, three wit-
nesses and the surgeon in charge of
your operation.
(3) All dormitory doors will be
locked at 9 p. m. except on special
occasions when they will be left open
until 9:15 p. m.
(4) Students having less than a
2.9 average cannot go home on week-
ends except during holidays when
they can leave school with only a
2 average.
These are only a few of the mild
resolutions and, after hearing about
his attitude toward fun-loving stu-
dents, one should expect many new
regulations that will probably strike
overs one concerned as slightly dras-
tic. But. nevertheless, before Mr.
Czeck was elected he informed the
students, who listened to campaign
speeches, of his intentions.
This has been the most enthusias-
tic student body since the last stu-
dent prank occurred. Every conver-
sation includes plans for murder; the
newspapers are carrying columns
about Czeck's election and how he
won, an! letters to the editor are
coming in like mad from discontented
(?) patrons.
Ah, excitement . . .
Driver Announces Plea For SGA Participations;
Sympathy Acknowledged; Conduct Discussed
Dear students,
The time for elections is here again
and the destiny of the Student Gov-
ernment Association for the term of
1959-60 will be decided. Last year,
four major offices were unopposed in
the elections which drew a great deal
of criticism from students and alum-
ni alike. The fault lies with us the
students for being blind to the fact
that it is our Student Goverment and
with the help of the students it will
stay that way. We say that the stu-
dents have no rights in what happens
on the campus but how can an ad-
ministration have respect for a stu-
dent government when only about 5
or 6 people have an interest in what
goes on concerning the students. If
more students would participate in
student government work and put
their efforts in the most practical
channels, then the Student Govern-
ment would truly be an effective
piece of equipment. ,
By filing for an office and placing
your name in nomination for the com-
ing elections you can be a valuable
core of the functions of the college.
In the realistic vein, the SGA can-
not change the world and satisfy the
pet peeves (?) of everyone, so tt
would be needless to try. There
are certain rules that are made
by the administration that the
student government has no con-
trol over but there are many
things that must be dona to
further advance the standards of the
college and to make it a more en-
joyable place to be. This can be done
by students. This can be initiated,
studied and put into effect by the
officers that will be elected next weak.
Please students dont take the SOA
for granted and bypass a chance to
be a part of a potentially effective
organization. It is your student gov-
ernment so let's kaap it that way,
It is not a remote possibility that If
participation keapa decreasing the
suthority of the students to gown
themselves on certain Issues wfB ha
taken away by the administration for
lack of confidence in the body. This
is merely my own opinion but I don't
fee! that it is so far from a reality
to be said unless the students take
more pride in their right to govern
themselves on many issues.
Let's make this a good campaign
by having every candidate opposed
so that the students may analyze the
capabilities of the individuals and
select the choice accordingly. Let's
make this a successful election year.

Dear Students,
I would like to express my
appreciation to everyone who
sent cards, letters, and flowers
to my mother during her serious
illness. The doctor says that your
thought fulness has greatly aided
her recuperation.
Although the cancer was ma-
lignant, the doctor believes the
Htirgery was successful. Thank
you again for everything you
have done for my family and me.
Sincerely,
Mike Kataias

Actions Criticized
Dear Editor:
Recently I have heard much criti-
cism directed at our administration
because of attempts of some of its
members to regulate signs of af-
fection between men and woman of
the college. It would seem that the
criticism for this situation might
rather be directed at certain groups
of parents who have placed the ad-
ministration in the uncomfortable po-
sition as acting as moral censors.
These parents insist that H is tha
duty of EOC to sea that their daugh-
ters do not conduct themselves in aa
"unladylike manner, while at school.
It certainly seams that If the par-

ents of these girls had done a good
job of installing' whatever principles
of conduct they feel appropriate in
tie girls before they entered ECC.
they would not have to fear that
their "little dears" would misbehave
as soon as they get away from home.
If the daughters of these parents
don't follow the code of conduct their
parents feel are proper, this would
most certainly seem to be a failure
r,f the parents in the rearing of
their children, and it certainly seems
unfair for them to expect the college
to do for their daughters what they,
themselves, have failed to do.
If these parents are so afraid of
the moral and ethical actions of
their daughters in social situations,
they most definitely should have sent
them to a nunnery, not a state insti-
tution of learning. Our administra-
tion certainly should not have to
assume the additional responsibili-
ties involved in having to persuade
.students to conform to a code of con-
duct which the students' parents
have failed to install in them after
17 years or so of trying.

We hear that it was so muddy out there in

afraid to go out for fear he would sink out

While we are on the subject of cement

The Rockin' Robins, a hustling
and spirited squad of basketballers,
poured it on in the last half of the
February 23 Championship game to
defeat the Fraternity Champs, Lamb-
da Chi Alpha, by a decisive 59-29
score. Previously, the Robins had
edged the Bombers 47-45 to gain
the finals.
Independent Play-off
In a playoff match to decide the
winner of the Independent Division
the Robins had to overcome a first-
half deficit to gain a hard fought
victory over the Bombers. Charlie
McDonald's rebounding and scoring
led the Robin attack. Benton's 13 and
Watkin's 11 points supplemented the
Robin drive. The Robins stifled the
Bomber offensive with a 2-1-2 zone
defense. Don Prince, with 16 points
led the Bomber's scoring effort.
Championship Game
The Championship game saw the
Robins jump to a quick 13-1 lead on
the strength of four consecutive bas-
kets, two on jumps by Bob Benton,
. tap-in by McDonald, and a push-
shot by Bob Watkins. However, the
Robin's big lead was short-lived as
Charlie Ward's 8 points led Lambda
Chi's late first-half rally. The Robin's
scoring punch reached a stalemate
and the first half ended with them
holding a 19-17 lead.
Second-half Romp
T' ree quick baskets at the begin-
ning of the serond half enabled the
Robins to regain a broader margin
of lead. Both clubs had elected to
"play it cool" at the beginning of
the half, but as the Robins widened
their lead, Lambda Chi continuously
fouled in attempting to gain posses-
sion of the ball. Led by McDonald.
the Robins repeatedly tossed in their
free throws. A temporary press, too,
beneficial to the Robins as they
frequently intercepted passes and
turned Lambda Chi errors into bas-
kets.
McDonald Leads Scorers
MeDonald, Robin's center, led all
scoring with 22 points, 14 of them on
free throws. Jerry Shackleford's 11
points and Watkin's 10 helped lead
the offense. Charlie Ward's 9 points
were tops for the losers.

tarter during his freshman year and

Ine his junior year.
He had trouble finding the scoring
touch this winter after the year lay-
