"Politics is friendship said Con-
gressman C larles O. Porter in a pri-
vate interview Monday.
Outlining his philosophy of politics
he stated that young people can and
should participate in our nation's
politics. "Don't over-estimates the
difficulties he stated. "The whole
trend now is toward young men in
politics
Co: i with the idea that re-
luctance of young men and women
making a career in politics may be
caused by the widespread belief that
politics is "shady he stated, "There
are dishonest people in business and
the professions, as well as politics.
"I would saj that on the whole my
colleagues in Congress are hard work-
ing, conscie tiou men. and above a 1
tle are honest, even to a greater

When asked about student apathj
t. ward government he said, "Apathy
toward politics and government is not
confined to student As a matter of
fact, students are probab j more
genuinely concerned over government
than the people at large.
"What we need is men in politics

"In Europe and South America
politics are a student's bread and

Speaking on other issues, the young
Congressman, an ardent Democrat
as optimistic about a Democratic
victory in 1960. "My guess is that
Stevenson will get the nomination
When asked about a Southerner's
chance for the vice presidential nom-
ination, he stated, "Kennedy will
probably get the nod. He is young
and energetic. This is just specula-
tion, of course
Porter didn't take very seriously

week. He's a favorite son and Sam

Potter also indicated that there

Democratic leaders have outspokenly
encouraged the removal of Democra-

Wells Blasts
EC Jitterbugs'
"If our college is to be judged by
the appearance of our campus, then
we are in bad shape
Prior to the student senate meet-
ing Monday night. President Dallas
Wells stated that he is appalled by
the constant flow of paper cups,
cigarette butts, and debris from the
nods shops that litter the campus
lawns and fountains.
"The students dirty up the place
at such a rate, the maintenance crew
can't keen up with them he further
stated. "We could have one of the
most beautiful campuses in the state,
but a lack of interest in the appear-
ance of the grounds, new buildings,
and just plain sloppinesa are slowly
eating up the attractiveness of the
college
In the Senate meeting, Wells called
for a volunteer committee to under-
take the project of a Student Gov-
ernment drive to "clean up and beau-
tify the campus Not a hand was
raised.
Vet, the President states that this
is one project which will be achieved.
The student themselves will take the
responsibility of making our campus
better looking
Calling on the students at large,
he asks for their support. "This is a
constructive idea, one which the stu-
dent body should participate, includ-
ing fraternities and sororities
The idea will come up again in
the next Senate meeting.
Senate To Authorize
By-Law Modifications
Aetu.al student control of the col-
lege publicatioas may be a reality in
the near future.
A proposed change in the by-laws
of the constitution where an 18-mem-
ber student controlled Publications
Board would replace the present 10-
member Hoard was recommended to
the Student Senate Monday night by
the Board itself.
James H. Tucker, Director of Stu-
dent Personnel, speaking for the
Board, stated that the present Board,
Ani.h contains only three students,
would add eight new members, all
students.
This would place ten students on
the board plus eight faculty and
staff members.
Senators Barney West, Pat Biggs,
and Vice President Jimmy Owens of-
fered to make the proposed changes
in the by-laws and submit them to
the Senate next week.
The present board includes the
three editors of the publications, the
theee advisors, Dr. Messick, Dean
Jenkins, Dr. Tucker, and Dr. Prewett.
Added to the board would be the
business managers of the publica-
tions the chairman of the handbook
committee, the President of the stu-
dent government, and two students
elected by the Senate.
The decision to change the set-up
of the board came from a recent
board meeting in which theie was a
general opinion expressed that the
publications themselves, including
The Key, the student handbook, de-
served better representation.
Although no poll has been ta
there appears to be little opposition
to the proposed change and the mo-
tion hculd cany easily at the next
Senate meeting Monday night.
Its passage would insure student
ontrol of publications which include
The East Carolinian, The Buccaneer,
and The Rebel.
Members of the present Board in-
lude Kathryn Johnson, editor of the
Baal Carolinian; Drs. Edgar Hirsh-
berg and Clinton Prewett, advisors;
Euclid Armstrong editor of the Buc-
caneer; Drs. James Poindexter and
Sam Dry, advisors; Dan Williams,
Rebel editor; Ovid Pierce, advisor;
Dr. John D. Messick, Dr. .lame- H.
Tucker, and Dr. Leo Jenkins.
Speaking of the proposed change,
Student Government President Dallas
Wells stated that it was an idea
of the administration and it reveals
on their part a elMburaoas to let the
studnil control their own affairs
President Wells called on the B.
ators to vote for the passage of the
proposed change and to elect only
Qualified students to serve on the
board.

school, and will have several "firsts"
within its covers.
For the first time, the Key, of-
ficial handbook for the college, will
be featured. The handbook will be
placed in the publications section,
along with the Buccaneer, the East
Carolinian, and the Rebel.
A Buccaneer Queen has been se-
lected. This girl, selected from
twenty candidates sponsored by the
honorary, professional, and social
fraternities and sororities on campus,
will be announced on May DtH when
the Buccaneer is issued.
Sororities will be in the yearbook,
Slid for the first time in two years,
the book will be dedicated to one
specific person.
Other items undergoing changes in
the yearbook include:
1. More emphasis will be placed I few books

highly by the National Yearbook
Association which judges the college
yearbook. Any student who wishes
to be in any of these pictures de-
picting campus life is asked to con-
tact some member of the staff.
'2. The departmental clubs will be
separated from their departments
and will he given a separate section
in the book.
(3) The professional societies will
have a section of their own. (If there
is any such society that has not been
contacted for representation in the
yearbook, please notify the staff.)
A greater variety of color shots
are planned for the '60 Buccaneer,
and also the section devoted to the
various "queens" on campus is to be
more elaborate this year.

Radio-TV Studios
The North Carolina Association of
Broadcasters convened this past
Tuesday in the Joyner Library to
discuss all aspects of television and
radio broadcasting either as a voca-
tion or avocation. A large number
of school administrators, teachers,
high school and college students par-
ticipated in the "Broadcasting Day
the first conference of its kind to be
held on the campus.
Sponsoring the event were the
Radio Club and Television Guild of
the campus and the North Carolina
Association of Broadcasters. Jack
Hankies of Station WELS. Kinston,
president of the State Association of
Broadcasters; Rosalind Roulston, di-
rector of radio and television; and
Dr. Corinne Richert, director of
closed-circuit television at the col-
lege made the over-all plans for the
day.
The agenda of the day included a
tour (if the broadcasting facilities
in operation in the library and Austin
Building, the operations of the tape-
recorded program service of the col-
lege, and teaching by closed circuit
television.
The Television Guild presented a
short comedy, three character play,
"Boor" by Chekhov. The cast was
Alice Coriolano, E. T. Rogers, and
Elizabeth Smith. The play was tele-
vised and those interested actually
had a hand in televising the play in
the second presentation.
The over-all purpose of the "Broad-
casting Day" was three fold accord-
ing to Miss Roulston: to acquaint
participants with the professional
broadcasting facilities of the college,
to discuss possibilities for profession-
al education in radio and television
at the college, and to explore ways
in which the college can increase its
service to people in its area through
broadcasting.

Angels Actually Convicts
The three angels are actually three

Publications Board Adds
More Student Members
Last week the Publications Board of the
SGA made a move which will give students
more authority and result in a more demo-
cratic method of selecting student editors
for the three campus publications.
The all-powerful Publications Board (all-
powerful in that they alone select the editors)
has heretofore been composed of eight faculty
and administrative members and only three
students, the editors of the three campus
publications.
Each year, this body, so heavily laden
with non-students not only decides important
issues in the publications field, but also elects
the student editors.
The board unanimously voted last week
to increase the student board membership to
ten. giving the student voice a majority of
two
Added to the board will be the president
of the Student Government Association, the
editor of the student handbook, The Key; the
business) managers of the three publications,
and two students selected at large by the
Student Senate.
Not only will students have a larger vote
in deciding issues and selecting the editors
yearly, but the two students selected at large
by the Senate will be able to inject the opin-
ions of the general student body concerning
publications.
This is indeed h step forward in the di-
rection of more self-government. We urge
t he Senate to choose wisely in the selection
of their additions to the Board. We also en-
courage anyone interested in the posts to
contact SGA President Dallas Wells. K. J.
Safety Missed In Rawls
After editorials, committee work, and
fire drills to insure safety of this campus
community, we find a breach of the fire
safety policj in Rawl Building.
There are no ash cans for the disposal
of cigarette butts in the building. Smokers
either grind their cigarettes into the floor
of the recently constructed building or throw
them into the cardboard boxes which have
been placed in the halls for the disposal of
paper and other trash. And even in a fire-
proof building this is dangerous. Besides
that, a floor laden with cigarette butts does
not befit this fine new classroom building.
We hope that this situation will be cor-
rected immediately! K. J.

Sororities Move
Forward Quickly
By TOM JACKSON
Wow, there goes another one. Word
just came in. Pi Kappa sorority has
gone national with Alpha Delta Pi-
How many does this make? We've
lost count already.
East Carolina's sororities are to be
congratulated on their speed in get-
ting organized and going national
since they were approved last year.
Have to admit they were a bit faster
than fraternities. But then the frater-
nities "paved the way" for them in
a sense.

ville, F
Last week it rained here in Green-
ville as most of you know, but there
are a few individuals who apparently
don't admit that it ever rains. Or if
they recognize rain they fail to ad-
mit that it makes mud.
For these individuals who don't
recognize it, we'll pause here a
minute to explain the meaning of
mud. It is spelled M-U-D and is
composed of dirt and water. Quite
frequently it can be found in varying
quantities on the ground around
campus during and after the Green-
ville rainy season.
One of East Carolina's primary
sources of mud is over on the Urn-
stead Dorm lawn. Each time it rains
the water ponds over there and as
it dries out leaves a sea of mud com-
pletely surrounding' the dorm.
Anyone who doesn't live over there
should go over the next time we have
a rain and try to get from the park-
ing lot to the dorm. It's quite an ex-
perience. Kind oi like playing hop-
scotch in a bed of quicksand.
Maybe the college authorities who
are in charge of cement walks should
go over and play around in that mud
for a while. Then perhaps they would
realize the need for a walk, bridge,
or some other form of dry footing
between the parking lot and the
dorm.
The boys in Umstead would prob-
ably cover their feet with kisses if
they would give them just a little
walk. Even a swinging bridge, or a
log, or stepping stones would help.
Why doesn't someone think of a
use for the terrace over between the
winds of the old chow hall. It's a very
pleasant place; nice lawn, brick ter-
ra' e, and even a fountain.
We understand it was intended
originally as a terrace for a soda
shop, but somewhere along the line
it was discontinued and forgotten.
'Social Drinker
Causes Accidents
It is not the reeling drunk, but
the respectable "social" drinker
the person rarely, if ever, visibly in-
toxicated who is the worst killer
on American highways.
This conclusion, based on accident
statistics, is reported in an October
Reader's Digest article, "Driver Had
Been Drinking by Paul W. Kearney.
Mure than half of all highway deaths
involve motorists not listed as
"drunken drivers but given the
milder police symbol of HBP
"Had Been Drinking
A growing body of evidence and
opinion indicates, Kearney writes,
that medical standards are measur-
ing driver drunkenness (.15 per cent
of alcohol in the blood proves in-
toxication; from .05 per cent up may
suggest it) are far too liberal. Driv-
ing skill actually begins to slip
measurably after more thai one
drink or at about one fifth the
level our courts consider intoxicat-
ing. Seven world medical authorities
said at the Symposium on Alcohol
and Road Traffic at the University
of Indiana in 15)58: "A blood alcohol
concentration of .05 per cent will
definitely impair the driving ability
of some individuals at a concen-
tration of .10 per cent all individuals
are deinitely impaired
The typical drinker reaches the
.05 per cent level with two ounces
of whiskey taken within an hour.
If he takes four more in the next

may still be good, he will take much
too long deciding how to react.
Also, he will develop an insouciant,

Eleven days have lapsed since the
completion of Homecoming festivi-

eventually forget about that fancy
ferry?" . . . Recently pledges proved
to be more useful at a football game
than as a paddle carrier (mass pro-
duce them and you've got a fortune)
. . . News can be interesting, but
after hearing that one of our 'RAH-

undignified manner, news can be dis-
gusting. . . .
Last year sororities were getting
organized. One of these elite groups
is still in the infant stage. . . Rumor
has it that all college organizations
have East Carolinian reporters, but
I'm sure it's just a rumor. . . . "Fire

for a superb group of speakers thus
far. 'Tis a shame that they could not
have spoken in the basement of

Dollars, Dollars
Today's Problem:
Our Own Economy
By DERRY WALKER
Thirty years ago this month, the
bottom fell out of American's pocket-
book. The stock market crash set off
a blast that crumbled nearly every
bank and shattered every budget.
Businessmen . . . brokers, bankers,
hardware salesmen, ditchdiggers, mil-
lions of people came home from their
jobs because they no longer had jobs.
Ex-millionaires put bullets through
their brains, factory workers stood
on street corners, housewives began
to put 'up preserves, and Americans
got hungry.
Baseball spurted new growth;
youngsters were crowded off sand-
h.ts across the country by grown
men who had nothing to do but play
I j pass away the time, and play to
keep their minds off their troubles.
A sack of Bull Durham and some
small papers constituted a smoker's
tools for' this habit. Little machines
that rolled cigarettes out of the to-
bacco in sacks were popular; the
cigarettes made that way looked al-
most like the real thing, but they
didn't taste like it.
We have enough to eat today. Jobs
are more than abundant compared
to those that were available then.
The unfortunate can be cared for in
most cases. Bread lines are now for
the destitute, the begger, the in-
capable.
The problem we have today gives
us none of these pains at least
not so unmercifully. Most subtle and
just as disastrous in the long run,
inflation can empty our pantrys and
shove our working men into the
11 eet
More and more crisp bills are
needed to feed our faces, warm our
backs, and fill our garages with
horses and chrome; more it takes
and yet we make no more, and he
who made a comfortable living yes-
terday is pacing the bedroom floor at
2 a.m. today.
This is what will defeat us as a
nation if we are ever defeated. Rus-
sia knows that a nuclear war would
be senseless; we would only destroy
each other. So Russia waits. She
waits to see if we will defeat our-
Betves with our own economy. That
way she wouldn't have to fight; she
could just wait until the country
fell to its knees as it did thirty years
ago during the depression; if Ameri-
ea fell to its knees again in such a
manner, Russia would merely have
to walk in and take over.
No, there will be no more war. The
only fight we'll have to win to remain
in existence is the battle of the bulg-
ing dollar . . . the dollar with a lot
of fat and a little lean.

Year Brings 'Leggy' Campus Era
College girls who believe their
legs are not attractive can really
do something about it during the
coming academic year, destined to
be the "leggiest campus era since
the Twenties.
Short hemlines are only part-
ly responsible for all the fuss.
It's tlfe exciting things that have
been happening to hosieryin
color, texture, pattern and shape
which really make lega the new
center of gravity in campus
fashions.
Nylon stretch tights have acquir-
ed a fresh look of 1,959everything
from clocks that spell out the names
of colleges to multi-colored bows that
harmonize.
Other novelties include elaborate-
ly decorated toreador styles with
matching booties and an all-in-one
tight-and-pantie combination with a
pantie-weight top and a sheer leg.
The popularity of tigMa has
inspired a group of thigh-high
casual stockings, which give the
illusion of tights.
Available in full-fashioned and
seamless versions, they come in
bright opaque knits and in muted
semi-opaque textures. Some have an
(lasticized bands that eliminates the
need for garters.
Selecting the right tint in dress
shoes for short trips off campus,
weekends, and gala evenings will be
the real test of a college girl's hos-
iery I. Q.
Color looms as bigger new
than ever, but subtlety is still
the watchword, the trick being
to point up but not necessarily
imitate the color of the rest of
the ensemble.
Almost as significant as color are
the hand-painted clocks up the side,

Commission Breaks Up
Quiz Show Racket; But
Only The Publie Loses
With a final fling of testimony from the
Federal Trade Commission which regulates
advertising practices, congressional investi-
gators are closing down their hearings into
television quiz show rigging.
Columbia Broadcasting System an-
nounced list week that they are going to put
an end to all television shows involving big
c ish awards or expensive prizes. National
Broadcasting Company said they were going
to implement every conceivable safeguard
to see that such rigging will never take place
again.
Actually, who was the loser in the whole
rigged set-up? The viewing public may have
b en fooled, but they were well entertai-
The advertisers were pleased with the ?-
mi Its the show brought. Workers OB
show got fat on increased salaries as tl
shows skyrocketed to fame. And tin
testants on the show were well paid for tl
acting parts before the camera.
Perhaps the one point in the entire
vestigation which shocked the American
lie most was the remark by one of the
ficials from the now defunct "Twenty
show that the noted Charles Van Doren had
accepted aid. In 19C6-7 Van Doren .von
$129,000 on the show.
Charles Van Doren is the son of M
Van Doren and the nephew of Carl ,
Doren, notable names in the literal
academic circles. After he won the large
amount of money on television, Charles be-
came as famous as the other two Van Dor-
He was considered one of America's bright-
est minds. Then a professor at Columbia C
versitv, he was given a $50,000-a-year
with NBC.
In testimony before the New York
County grand jury last year Van Doren
nied getting help while a contestant. Hr
peated this later by telegram to the Wash-
ington subcommittee.
However, recently when a House sub-
committee sought Vun Doren to serve a
subpoena on him for appearance for q
tioning, he was most reluctant. He left
home and only under great pressure did he
return to accept his subpoena.
Since officials and other contestants, bad
just sworn that "Twenty-One" was definil
rigged, Van Doren's reluctance to answer to
the subcommittee gave a very bad Unpressi
As long as television continues to
tertain, the public will not lose faith ii
But the public has lost faith in a man to
whom almost every television viewer looked
up a man a iih a fine background full of
tradition a supposedly brilliant y
Amercan, a college professor at one ol
our greatest universities.
Next month when he appears for ques-
tioning, Van Doren will have a lot of expi.
ing to do to the subcommittee and to the tele-
vision-veivving public before he can raie hia
head again.
The public can forgive the networks
duping them. It will be easy to forgive all
the "little people" who took their chances
and earned big money on the rigged shows
But it will be much harder to forgive Charles
Von Doren or the famous Van Dorens, K. J.
Passing The Bond Issue
Will Insure ECC Money
For More Improvements
Citizens of North Carolina have the op-
portunity to vote October 27 on a state-wide
bond issue which, if approved by the voters,
would insure East Carolina College $1.49
000 for the specfic improvement projects.
Point number one in the nine point bond
issue calls for the issuance of $18,891,000
State Education Institutional Capital Im-
provement Bonds of the State of North Caro-
lina for capital improvements at the State's
educational institutions and agencies.
If this section of the bond issue is pas
the amount of money specifically ear-marked
for this college will be put to the following
uses:
$189,200 for an addition to the campus
heating plant.
$50,000 for improvement of the campus
electrical system.
$96,800 for an addition to Graham
Building.
$334,000 for a new wing to be added to
Flanagan Building.
$78,000 for an addition to the infirmary.
$117,000 to renovate two men's dormi-
tories, Slay and Umstead, to be used as
women's dormitories.
$625,000 to off-set one-half of the cost
of a new dormitory for 500 men students.
None of the items on the above list are
luxury items. All are needed by this college
to do the job it is supposed to do. Every one
of the items is for improvements which were
requested of the legislature this year, but
were not appropriated because of the lack
of state funds for this biennium.
Unless section one of the bond issue is
passed, ECC, along with several other schools
and institutions, may have to wait as long
as two years to obtain money it needs so
badly.
We hope that apathy and disinterest will
not prevail and North Carolinians will go
out and vote in favor of this money for edu-
cation. For two long we've been almost at
the bottom as far as the amount of money
given to education is concerned. K. J-

PACE four g A S T CAROLINIAN
Bucs Meet Newberry Saturday In Non-ConferenceTilt
Cats Power Crushes Bucs In Second Half
East Carolina's Pirates had their
first taste of defeat in conference
play last Saturday night, when they
were defeated 34-14 by a fired-up
Western Carolina eleven on the Cata-
mount's home field.
The loss dropped the Pirates out
of the North State Conference lead,
and into a two-way tie with Appa-
lachian. Both teams hold 3-1 confer-
ence records.
West Carolina, sensing the im-
portance of the contest, and fired-up
to a high degree, bulled through East
arolina defenses, which in the past
had created an enviable record of de-
fensive strength.
WC's All-Conference quarterback,
Bob Coopei he'd the spotlight most
of the night with his strong passing
arm. Cooper, a triple-threat per-
former, passed for a total of 141
yards
Bast Carolina won the toss and
cceive. Pirate quarterback
Ralph 1 aaled in the boot,
and to the EC 33 yard
en threw a 25 yard
Speight which started
a drive to the Catamount 30 yard
line. The Pirates were unable to
any further and the Cats
took possession.
11 the first play from scrimmage,
lied out to pass and it was
by EC's Ralph Zehring,
who scampered 13 yards to the WC
45 van) line. Zehring then threw to
By ROY MARTIN
Dave Thomas for a first down, and
Glenn Bass went 22 yards for another
first down. James Speight then cul-
minated the drive by going off-tackle
for six yards ami the first Pirate
tally. Jerry Carpenter made good
the conversion, and the score was
7-0.
After the first Pirate tally, West
Carolina began their march. Cooper
punted to East Carolina, and the ball
rolled out of bounds on the ECC three
yard line. The Bucs were forced to
kick and WC took over on the East
Carolina 47.
The Cats drove to the Pirate three
yard line, and halfback Tom Broad-
water cracked over for the touch-
down. Cooper then hit Broadwater
with a pass for the extra point and
the Catamounts took the lead 8-7.
In the second period, WC again
drove into East Carolina territory.
Tom Broadwater again shone when
he raced 19 yards, and raised the
score to 14-7 in favor of the Cata-
mounts.
In the waning moments of the
second quarter EC climaxed a f6 yard
drive with a touchdown, and tied the
score 14-14.
West Carolina exploded in the
second half for three touch-downs
and one two-point extra point. Coop-
er scored the first touchdown on a
I larterbaea keep, Tobe Childers

for the second tally, and the Cooper-
EC Freshman To Battle
Strong Fork Union
By ROY
East Carolina's freshmen football-
! a travel to Fork Union, Virginia,
where they will do battle
with a strong Fork Union Military
Academy eleven.
In previous games. Fork Union has
shown an unusually powerful team.
They have easily beaten the Univer-
sity Virginia Frosh by a score of
They also romped over the Wil-
liam and Mary freshmen to the tune
of 42-d.
1 i Gary Mattock's charges are
in good physical shape, and should be
ready to give the Virginia military
men a tough time of it when the
"Baby Bucs' invade Fork Union.
Going into the Fork Union encoun-
ter, the frosh record stands at 2-2.
Their wins were over Frederick Col-
lege and Chowan College. They have
been defeated by The Citadel fresh-
men and their last defeat came at
the hands of Frederick in a return
tgement last Saturday night in
1 rl nouth, Va.
The "Baby Bucs who defeated
nek September 24, in College
Stadium, were overcome 13-6 by a
l-up Frederick squad, which was
greatly aided by crucial breaks.
The Frederick eleven dominated
MARTIN
the first half of play. The Lions
marched 70 yards for their first
tally in the first period. The Frede-
rick squad scored on an off-tackle
maneuver from the Pirate five yard
line, culminating the drive.
Early in the second quarter, Jerry
Ellis, Lion quarterback, rolled out
and threw a long pass to John Caddie
near the end one. Pirate defenders,
attempting to break up the pJay, de-
flected the ball into the hands of
a Frederick lineman in end one for
the second tally.
The second half of play saw quite
a different picture. East Carolina
completely ruled the action. The Bucs
allowed Frederick to take possession
of the ball only three times the en-
tire second half.
East Carolina took the second half
kick-of on their own ten and drove
to the Frederick three, where they
met a stone wall of Frederick de-
fenders. Frederick took possession on
the fourth down, and they too were
unable to move the ball.
This type of action went on until
the third period, when ECC quarter-
back Carey Parker hit end Wayne
Woolard with a long pass for the
lone Pirate score.
AVAILABLE . . . Coach Jack Boone will go with his same backfield this
week but available for duty will be sophomore Tommy Matthews. Tommy
saw some action last year as a freshman.

Thomas Paul and Thomas Wain-
wright captured the College Union's
Fall Quarter Men's Doubles Table
Tennis Taurnament in play held Oc-
tober 15. The left-handed drives and
kill shots of Paul, and the steady
right-handed forehand drives of
Wainwright defeated the team of
Roger Bullock and Ike Aiddick 21-18,
16-21, 21-13, 18-21, and 21-11.
In the fourth game Paul-Wain-
wright led 18-12, when the under-
spin chop defense of Hiddick forced
Paul into a series of errors which
gave the losers 9 straight points, and
the game. However, in the fifth game,
Paul and Wainwright played more
cautiously, and forced Bullock and
Kiddick into returning balls high
enough for them to smash, and took
the championship 21-11.
Bullock's well placed block shots
and Riddick's tricky spin defense had
upset last year's winners, Zuill Bai-
ley-Norman Kilpatrick 21-18, 16-21,
21-13 in the round-robin play lead-
ing up to the finals. In this match
Kilpatrick was unable to use his
forehand drives, and Bailey had trou-
ble controlling his push shots.

Wainwright's defeat of the team of
Bobby Hutrhins-Albert Davis, 19-21,
21-10, and 21-15, Charles Munn-Ed-

21-19 win over Barney Strutton -and
Alfred Bremer.

forehand drives of Eddie Barcliff
stopped the blocking defense and
smash shorts of Bobby Hutchins and
Albert Davis, by scores of 21-18,
17-21, 21-16. Final standings:

Sonia Azam, whose steady chop de-
fense and occasional forehand drives
allowed her to win the women's
round-robin over Jerry McDaniel,
Rosalie Daulton, and Ramona Kil-

serves and chop defense allowed her
to win second place from Miss Daul-
ton's hard backhand drives, 21-17,
17-21, 21-18 in the tournament's most
interesting match.

Jack Boone's football aggregation
travels to Newberry, S.C. this Satur-
day to do battle with the Newberry
Indians, a non-conference foe.
Newberry, holding a 3-2 won-lost
record to date, are in the Little Three
Conference along with Wofford and
Presbyterian Colleges. But their won-
lost record is misleading, for the
losses came at the hands of two foot-
ball powers, The Citadel and Lenoir
Rhyne, which is by no means a dis-
grace.
Coach George Tucker, who scouted
Newberry, has very much respect for
the squad. His reports show that the
ndians have a wide open offense.
Thy run from a double wing as well
3 a single wing. The South Caro-
linians have a very explosive back-
field led by fullback Seastruck, who
scored four touchdowns in a winning
cause against Troy State College of
Alabama. There is little doubt in
Coach Tucker's mind that Seastruck
is the Indians' bread and butter man.
Another dangerous man in the In-
dian backfield is Bobby Walters,
a 1 10 pound quarterback from Sum-
ter, S.C. One of the finest passers
in his conerence, Walters could mean
big trouble to the Pirates.
The Newberry squad is assured not
to run out of manpower, for they use
a platoon system. The Indians have
three teams, all capable of giving
opposing coaches sleepless nights.
Depth is definitely no problem in the
Newberry camp.
The Indians do not have an ex-
ceptionally heavy team, but what
they lack in weight they certainly
make up in speed. As Coach Tucker
states, "Those boys are really look-
ing forward to this ball game. In
order to beat them, we must play
our best game of the season. We can't
let the loss to Western Carolina dis-
courage us
Injured in the WCC game were end
Bill Cain and guard Bob Greg-
son. Cain should be ready for action
against Newberry, but Gregson is
expected to be sidelined for at least
two weeks. Other than that, the .Pi-
rates will be in top physical form.
Expected to carry the ground game
for the Bucs will be the "touchdown
twins James Speight and Glenn
Bass. Pirate quarterback (Ralph Zeh-
ring can also spell trouble for the
Indians with his dangerous passing
arm. Starting at the fullback slot
should be Mac Thacker.
The forward wall will probably be
the same with Cain and Dave Thomas
at the ends, tackles Vernon Davis and
YA Emory, Wayne Davis and Jim
Gordon at the guard positions, and
Lynn Barnett at center. .

iPIRAT E'S
DEN
By JOHNNY HUDSON
A true test of a really good team is their ability come back aftei
losing a game. East Carolina will get just that opportunity Saturday when
it runs up against a strong Newberry outfit.
Many ECC followers were disappointed with the way the We
Carolina game went, but it was just one of those nights. Westernar
was "up" in the highest form and it would have taken MR than a
State club to whip them Saturday night before their large home
following.
Team Is a Good One
East Carolina batt'ed the Cats on even terms during the fj
but were never able to get position in the final half. Forced deep in
territory most of the final thirty minutes, the Pirates got of
rushing plays in the entire second half. Their backfield dsto
Speight and Glenn Bass never had a chance to show their
muddy turf.
The Pirate contingent of 1959 is a good one better than in
seasons and won't fold following their first conference loss of the season.
Coach Boone's club is a strong one and won't get beat by a weak t.
ECC fans can rest assured that Western Carolina has all the ingredimt
of a good football team.
Pirates Drop to Second
Saturday's loss by East Carolina left the North State Confi
more mixed up than a jig-saw puzzle. Four teams and
were still very much in the running for the title following
of Saturday's battle.
Lenoir Rhne merged into first with their onesided rieterj aver
Guilford. Appalachian took an easy verdict over Catawba to claim a tie
with East Carolina for the second spot. Western Carolina alo with-
only one less is in the third spot.
The big game this week will pit the Bears .
at Cullowhee. Fa t Carolina will take on non-conference Newbern
sharpening their attack for successive invasions by Appalachia
noir Rhyne.
Many Records May Fall
Even though losing Saturday, the Pirate club was till r
in many departments and moved closer to one of their betn
Their 14 points against WCC gave them 164 for the season I
than their entire season total of 195.
Glenn Bass has already scored as many touchdowns a
leader. Bobby Perry, and is only six yards short of his leading 1
average. James Speight is also having a banner season an
1158 total this week against Newberry.
Sky king, Ralph Zehring is well on his way to hi
Piiate leguiar. He has been firing at near SO per cent
already carried the Bucs to five touchdowns through the air.
The Benson is just halfway over for the locals and tl
hard row to hoe, but many records are in sight of this club. T
their work cut out but it is always more challenging when the 1 b
is tough.
Predictions of the Week
