Summer Scool Dance Tommy Mallison announced plans to stage the annual summer school dance in Wright Auditorium July 7, at 9:30 following a concert which is to begin at 8:00 prior to the dance. Signed to play for the dance and concert is the Billy May Band, under the direction of Frankie Lester. This is May's second appearance on the campus. As in the past, a summer school queen will be named and crowned at the dance. The election of the queen by the student body will be on Wednes- day, July 5 in the College Union be- tween the hours of 8:30 an 3:30. Those campus organizations and sponsor a candidate in the queen contest may do so hy submitting her name, qualifi- cations, and photograph to the SGA offices by July 3. The requirements are that the girl maintains a "C" During the first meeting, opposi- tion was raised because the apparent price of $1,500.00 would be more than the SGA could afford for a concert. The Basie group would appear for a two heur concert on the evening of July 13. In the second meeting, however, much student opinion had changed, since the representatives had ' talked with members of their respective groups. During this meeting it was pointed out that the Entertainment Committee had obtained Basie for a price one- half of his usual cost ($3,000). Several members of the group stated that the students would enjoy the conceit by Mr. Basie, even though it did ap- 1 pear as if the money woald be in ex- cess of the usual amount spent u a summer entertainment series. NSA Issue In a suggestion made by the regular term SGA, stating that tha summer SGA send three representatives to investigate the National Student As- sociation, at their yearly conference to be heki in Madison, Wisconsia, the group passed and appropriated $900 to do this. Presently, there is a pro- poia.1 before the regular term SGA to re-join the NSA, after having dropped membership from this organ- ization in 1959. the three delegates will attend the meetings to observe the operation of the association and determine the value of this organiza- tion to our SGA.

Pa2 EAST CAROLINIAN THURSDAY, JUKE V-l-V-V KK&MSS lazy Summer Offers New Perspectives Summer, with its lackadaisical way of life, has slowed disciplinary action for female students to a snail's pace. There seems to pe no holdover of major disciplinary offenses from Spring quarter, and the course of things is running smoothly. Perhaps too smoothly! Has summer quietened the rebels, the spirited masses? Perhaps the past year, webbed in fun and frivolity, has released its hold on the rebels, the spirited ones. As we fall from the webb that has held us securely the past months, we are suddenly aware of a new perspective. It is time to take a serious, sobering in- sight into our reasons for being here. We slowly realize that we are here for more than mere fun and frivolity. We have a definite reason, a specific purpose that com- pels us to return again to school when, 11 we choose, we could be free from the daily grind of books and papers. Why then are we here? We have returned to find the missing linkthe link that clearly spells out our ob- jectives, whatever they may be. Suddenly, we realize that the past months were spent in pursuing some alien course, rather than the one that we sat out to follow. Now we realize that we must try even harder than before if we are to remain here and open a way to our objectives. For some the'way will be easy and for those who are not so sure, the way will be difficult at times, but both roads lead to the same end. Yes, summer with its lackadaisical way of life has slowed us in some respects, but it has also aroused us to a new or a rekindled ob- jective, but beware lest the pace quicken in the fall. Change Aids Students East Carolina's administration has changed the daily hours of the student bank so that it will not be open on Saturday morn- ings. This is good. There is little or no life on the campus during the summer months on Saturday, and the teller should not have to work on Saturday during the summer months. But what about the hours during the regular school year? An extra thirty minutes durmg the lunch hour could make cashing a oheck during this period a real convenience for the students. Could it be that thirty minutes could be taken from the earlier morning hours and moved to the noon hour to facilitate this con- venience? By not opening the bank until 11:00, in lieu of 10:30 opening time, and re- maining open until 12:30, is only one solu- tion to the problem. Many students get out of class at noon, and have to rush to get a check cashed before the bank closes. This, we feel, is just one more move the administration could make to facilitate the students needs.

Phillip Milton Crocker OFFICES on the second floor of Wright Building. aU detenents, PL 2-6101, extension 264. Pear Editor: After reading the column written by Mr. J. Alfred Willis in the June 22 issue of the ElAiST CAROLINIAN, 1 couldn't help but be concerned with its contents. I am- personally concerned with the welfare of our student .government for many reasons; one, of course, is the fact that I hold a seat on the Stu- dent Senate now in the summer as well as during the regular term. Anyone that asks the officers of the Senate about their opinion of stu- dent participation in the recent elec- tion will find that we are extremely dissappointed. Who is really fond of the fact that even though he is elected, cnly about 4 per cent of the student enrollment elected him? We realize that we are the representatives for over 2)500 people and only 101 people elected us. Even the filing for cand- idacy was terrible. Only one person filed for each (position except for the Graduate Student Representative posi- tions for rthich no one filed. I don't know Why this lack of interest pre- vailed, but I do know that it wasn't because there aren't enough qualified people available or (because there was no publicity. In my opinion thedre are only a few students who really care enough about student government to feen take the time to vote. Many times these students are the ones who are griping about no-representative istudent government. They want to do all the yelling but somehow conven- iently find something to do when sug- gestions are needed5 or work is to be done. As far as Mr. Willis' column, is concerned, I think that he is trying to write albout something that he knows very little about. I may be mistaken, but I donift think that he has ever asked me or aauyone else in the Senate if there is anything that he can do to help student government or even offered his opinion aibout any phase of student government except election (participation. I would also especially like to point out that I have checked the list of names of the people that voted in the recent sum- mer school elections and for some reason I couldn't find Mr. Willis name on rtjhat list. Is this "Practicing what you preach ?" I have in the (past worked on the staff of our fine newspaper, so I do know a few of the problems about the workings of the paper. Perhaps I can raise the question concerning the representation of students on the newspasper. The fact stands that there are only ten or twelve students on the staff of this summer's paper. Take into consideration that these students in effect represent less than one naif of one per cent of the student enroll- ment. But Who questions student re- presentation there? The meetings of the Student Senate are open to each and every student who wu Id ilike to attend them. 'For ithe henefit of anyone really interested, we meet in the Board Room of the Administrations Building every Monday at 4:00. I am sure that we can find a place to hold the meeting if more students show ofc.) Getting back to the lack of ki- te rest in the election there is one thing that I would like to say. If the students of East Carolina College (or any other college for that mat- ter) donft even care enough about student government to take a little Time to find out the candidates and issues of the election or don't even take the time to vote, then they .shouldn't gripe and' criticize because some are dissatisfied with their leaders. Whether some of itihe charactera around here realize it or not, about CO per cent of the $15 activity fee be pays each quarter goes to student government. If they don't have enough sense or enough interest to care where the money goes or who leads them, then somehow I wonder whether or not they deserve "representative" student government even though I think they get it. In closing I want to point out that in student government are al- Campus Anesthetists By J. ALFRED WILLIS In the interest of acclimating (See q graphy 15) students new to this campus y the Student Union), a list of excuses quently (see Math 45) used by East Car. Una students has been compiled (refer k the SGA). The student should family himself with this list as soon as possible; k not only can it serve for alibi-making (refef to the Administration), but, also, as a g for accepted behavior (see Psychology and expected norms (refer to the Education Department) in the social interaction ( Sociology 110) with fellow students.

Summers Dear Editor: In reference to the atmosphere of lethargy which now exists on this campus, perhaps there is nc better example with which to egin than the library. Anyone who .has ever attenuated to withdraw books from this sacred building is certainly familiar with its drawbacks, familiar withy the "vast source of ready, reference materials" available, and familiar with tihe speedy service" therein. A 'professor recently, of the Social Studies Department, spent twenty minutes waiting at the circulation desk to check out a hook and finally left in disgustwithout the book. I once spent several hours looking over the card catalogues in an attempt to find books for a reference paper. Armed finally with a compiled list I proceeded to the desk to get them. Out of an accumlated list of over ten books I managed to- get three. This is not the atmosphere and at- titude which promotes a regard for research and literatiire, two aspects with which the learned mind must be fully acquainted. But where does the fault list Certainly not with the girls who work behind those walls. With the attitude that prevails there among higher ups one wonders why they even bother to help anyone with a book. An English professor suggested some time ago that perhaps a complete re- organization of the cataloguing sys- tem might do the job. I believe that more than that is necessary. How about a complete new library admin- istration? The old one seems to av deteriorated to a point of nonexostence. I iay the blame fully on the shoulders of the adbrandstraitoTs, not on the en- listed (personnel. A college is an or- ganization and organization is the measurement of dbfiUQr. If the ability of the Horary ad- ministration is an indication of how ECO is travellin-were on the downward trek. G. "Words are cheap so the saying goes. But the above words are not cheap. What they say, what they indicatehas caused a con- stant turnover of professors here at East Carolina College. (A total of 30 professors will not be here next year, either due to "re- tirement" (3), "leave of absence" (5), or "better position" (22) ). As one lost in the rendering of the rhyme and metre of Edgar Allan Poe, we, the students, have anesthetized the College of East Carolina. No Place To Go By LARRY BLIZZARD As the first hot days of summer descend upon us, we find oursekes once more back at the or hunting groundsthe breezeless classrooms of ECC. Funny how one seems to see basically the same faces back here sum- mer after summer. There must somehow be a hardened core of us students who hold down the fort during the summer months when the main crowd is gone. This summer school seems filled with the usual thingsco-eds, sunburns, and hot class- rooms. Some of the usual complaints concern- ing manner of dress on campus have been heard. Only this time, the complaints nave been directed against some of. the faculty membersunprofessional appearance, no coa and tie, etc. It seems that these faculty mem- bers prefer to be comfortable during the sum- mer months and thus abstain from the coa and tie routine. They should realize that tney are behind the timesmere knowledge anQ the ability to teach doesn't make the instruc- torone must look the part of a teacher; au if possible, a well paid one. During summer school, one niisses old familiar phenomenon, the Saturday niP free movie, where you could take a r ?7r. get by with only a dime for pepsi colas ste- wards. Now, those attending summer scn? who lack the energy to leave on weaken find themseves shelling out dough for ente ' tainment (downtown movies, beer).

An example of this nightmare dkr the coach, but wealth for the player, has hit directly on our campus. Not only did the signing of two star athletes in this college effect baseball strength for next year's Buc nine, but the signature's of some of the school's finest athletes also haunt Coach Eiaul Sini'th's basketball forces for 1961-62. Cotton Clayton and Floyd Wicker will, without a doubt, be missed by Ooaeh Smith's five. Clayton was the playmaker, top scorer, re- bounder, and all-conference guard. Wicker, a freshman on last year's team, had three years of eligibility remaining. Of course, the procedure of players signing bonus contracts will con- tinue to happen in the future. But there are several bad points that have to be kept in mind. Literally robbing the coaches of their talent has al- ready been explained. But what about the player's education? Is he being fair to himself for signing a Major League contract, and forsaking his edu- cation? How long will ia bonus of $10,000 last an athlete? This does not seem to be as important as his college degree would be for future years. There have been many young players dn their first or second year of college who have signed for 75,000 or 100,000 dollar bonuses. Would any- one turn this kind of money down? No one would in their right mind. Could some method he worked out in which players could be discouraged from signing a major league contract until they have djinished their edu- cation? It seems, that during these modern times of fighting communism, education is the most important way to comibat the enemy. Yet, talented athletes, who may also be intellectually inclined cannot afford to turn down such an offer as the one made by the Major League recruiters. The blame Uor this situation is certainly not the players, but instead, the big league recruiting program. It would appear that the Major Leagues are imiming a Minor League farm system in our colleges and universities today. It is not wrong to help a deserving boy through school and sign hinn after he receives his degree, but to deprive him of his education by offering the individual a fat bonus to drop school should be entirely abolished. There are people who do not have the initative to finish their education, or who might be financially equipped. On the other hand, there are young athletes today who sign a contract and iplay for the summer, and return to college for the winter. But in a great deal of the cases the players do not bother to return. It looks as if coaches in the f uture will he lucky to have an outstanding baseball player around more than a year or two. If the athlete is a con- siderable contribution to another sport it just makes matters worse. Possi- bly something will be done about this situation in the future. But until then, it appears that not the degiree he could have received, hut the Major Leagues will control many a young man's future. Bass Signs Pro Grid Contract With San Diego Joe Corne, 1961 State Table Tennis champion will be here for the Union Tournament next week. One of EC's all time great backs, Glenn Bass, has announced that he lias signed with the San Diego Ohargers of the lAlmerican Football League. The 6l" 200 pound Senior leaves EC after summer school for the Charger training camp. The Wilson speedster not only ex- celled on the gridiron but was also a first string shortstop on Coach Jim Malilory's (baseball nine for three years. Glenn added the diamonders to Three Teams Tied For Second Place In Standings Two hard hitting teams with speed and power at the plate lead the tight Intramural Softball League. Nick Hilgert's fraternity nine and Ron Shoupe's Independents are a step ahead of the three teams in a dead- lock for the second place spot. Defending champion of 1960, the Scoffer aggregation is tied with the Has Beens and the Road Runners. The Non-Freedom Riders and the Grand- slammers round out the loop stand- ings. The NFR team has played .500 ball with a 1-1 record, but the Grand- slamniers have been having their troubles with only a 1-5 mark. The Outlaws had to stop a 3-run rally by the Grandslammiers in their opener before winning 4-3. The other three Outlaw victims were the Hope- fuls 6-3, the Scoffers 5-5, and the Road Runners 8-4. Lambda Chi claims wins over the Grandslammers 4-1 and the Scoffers 8-3. The only loss by the fraternity nine was a tight 10-9 de- cision to Larry Thomas' Hopeful squad. ' Brilliant pitching by southpaw Porgy Turner with the additional help of many old grads has been the prime factor in the play of the second place Has Beens. Among the three recorded victors by the graduates has been an 11-8 margin over the first place Outlaws. One of the teams tied for second with the Has Beens is Brock Ridlge's rough Road Runners. Johnny Phillips' Scoffer nine also owns a very important victory over the Road Runners. The Scoffers also defeated the Has Beens in a slugfdst by a 16-13 margin. It aippears to be a 6-way battle down to the wire since the NFR team, with a 1-1, has played only two official games through Mon- day, June 26. Wednesday, June 28, and Thursday, June 29 will be used for rained-out games. The play-off between the league's top three teams will be on Monday, July 3 and July 4. These will be seven-inning games for the F.ast Carolina campus championship. gain the national chanrupionship this season with his fine play at his in- field post. It appears as though this is the year for signing Pirate athletes. At least six professional contracts have been signed in two different sports thus far. Besides Bass's signature for the gridiron, graduate student Jim Speight from Greenville is now the property of the Baltimore Colts in the National Professional Football League. Baseball stars Cotton Clayton, Floyd Wicker, Jim Martin, and Wally Cockrell (have signed contracts for Major League teams. Star pitcher Larry Crayton also signed this aumimer. It looks as though 1960-61 was a hig year for the ECC athletes. Scoffer Nine, defending Intramural Champions.
