"The Lost Colony, in the symphonic

of the people of the northeastern

It might be right to give some
credit to 'The Lost Colony' for in-

President Leo W. Jenkins of East

preciation to the Hoard of Stewards
of St. .)ames Methodist Church in
Greenville for action taken to assist
in providing rooms for an overflow
registration at Hfcte college this Fall.
Earlier this week, the members of the
oatxl of stewards at St. James

the eo-ngregation to determine avail-
able rooms for Methodist students
who are unable to be assigned dormi-
tory rooms. Tfl.ie pastor, the Rev. C.
F. Hirschi, will compile the informa-
tion.
It was learned by administration
officials, also, that members of the
First Pentecostal Holiness Ohurch
hare were volunteering assistance in
providing rooms, some families al-
ready reporting acceptance of stu-
dents to live with them during the
college year.
Dr. Jenkins said tfhie expression of
this spirit of co-opreation and sup-
port of the churches of tihe communi-
ty with tfle college was am excellent
.demonstration of wihtolesome relations
enjoyed by tiVfe college administration
with people of Greenville and Pitt
County. This is tangible evidence of

NSA Challenges Students To
Activate Campus Democracy
The American student faces the challenge of making de-
mocracy a working reality within the university community and
hifjher education, in$einational o.o
opportunity for all and democratic student government unit
yield only as ive students appreciate the nature and dimensions
of this challenge.
We have faith that our generation will act with honesty,
courage, and intelligence.
Richard A. Rettig
President, USNSA
The U. S. National Student Association, a non-partisan,
non-sectarian organization founded fourteen years ago for the
purpose of permitting the students of this country an opportuni-
ty to exchange ideas or express their opinions on basic issues
affecting them, will convene for the fourteenth consecutive year
at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, August
20-30.
Tommy Mallison, SGA vice-president, will attend the Na-
tional Student Congress as representative for (the student body
and on behalf of the Entertainment Committee; Merle Summers,
SGA senator, will represent ithe executive offices of the SGA;
and Pasty Elliott, editor of the East Carolinian, will represent
the college newspaper; Gene Lanier, assistant librarian, will
accompany the group as advisor.
The representatives to the NSA will attend orientation
sessions, workshops, and subworkshops, and during the last four
days of the Congress they will attend the plenary sessions and
the election sessions. Since East Carolina is no longer a mem-
ber of NSA, they will have no voting power, however represen-
tatives will have the privilege and the responsibility of express-
ing their opinion on basic issues affecting them and East Caro-
lina as official observers.
Representatives to the Congress will attend workshops
on Student-Faculty-Administration Relations (improvement of
liaison and understanding among students, faculty, and admin-
istration; development of effective avenues of cooperation),
Freedom of Access to Information ((the right to know; questions
concerning government security classifications, open and closed
university meetings, and free dissemination of information),
Organization of Student Government (student government struc-
ture as it relates to a more effective role for student government
and tha.t government's responsibility in the campus community),
Oampus Communications (educational role of campus news-
paper and radio station; relationship to student government;
freedom and responsibility). The delegates to the meeting will also
attend subworkshops and subcommittees on other facets of cam-
pus-student relationships.
We feel thalt student viewpoint, like that of every other
segment of society, is a necessary element in a democratic coun-
try; and that the responsibility of viewpoints reflective of stu-
dent opinion at East Carolina, when shared with other campus
representatives will aid these student leaders to meet their re-
sponsibilities. The students who attend (the annual National Stu-
dent Congress, to a greater degree than anyone else, represent
the prevailing student opinion on .the campuses from which thev
come.
Letter To The Editor
A
AUGUST
Editorial Receives Reprimand
To be general, there are two categorias of written com-
municationscientific writing and literary writing. Scientific
writing includes such things as laboratory reports, logarithmic
tables, and newspaper stories; anything capabile of verification
and that excludes, as much as possible inferences (a statement
about the unknown made on the basis of the known) and judg-
ments (expressions of the writer's approval or disapproval of
the occurrences, persons, or objects he is describing).
iu Byhe.Process of elimination, the writing that appears
on this editorial page of the East Carilinian fall into the cate-
gory of literary writing (along with Emerson's Essays, Gulli-
ver's Trcvels, and the New York Time's editorial page).
Since these editorials and columns that appear on this
page are in the literary category, the criticism of anyone of
mvT bxei. false l2 escientifically untrue is irrelevant and
invalid. (If this was not the case then Alice in the Wonderland or
Hamlet, or sermons, or political speeches would have no excuse
for existance).
When one says that an editorial is true, it may merely
?kat OT!ta?ree8 ZJ sentiment or it may mean that
one believes that an attitude has been accurately expressed or
it may mean that the attitudes evoked are believed to be such
as will lead to better social conduct True' mjay hatvte many mean-
mgs.
, v.Simllar& "?" I?ay have many meanings. When one
says that an editorial is false, it means that one has a difference
of opinion.
With the above in mind, we must some how rectify the
expressed desire of Dean Tucker and Dean White that the edi-
nSSt &"&? F88 Car?1JSiin entlt,ed "Significance Is
Relative To Symbohzations And Time" is false and derogatory
The main point in contention is that Ithe reason "given by the
perpetrators in this mock execution" has the facts wrong.
Dean White in a private interview, explained, "I went
over to Gotten Hall about 10:20. I was going tome with the

Personalities Rise
Jones Zoo's Legg
Dear Editor:
On our campus we have an elite
social group called the "Baboons of
Jones Zoo The members of this
group have excelled in SGA work and
other extracurricular fields.
Most outstanding of the Baboons
is 'Tudor' Simmons, who, among
other things, is a senator in our SGA.
Simmons and his voruous roommate
"Wrjip" Logging were shown in the
East Carolinian earlier this summer
with jazz great Count Basie.
Speaking of pictures brings to
mind our advertising manager "Boo"
Cross's newest beer ad featuring Log-
gins on the latest Schlitz signs.Said
Cross, "Loggias h)as that wholesome
young American expression needed
in beer ads Making the ads in con-
junction with Cross was Baboon photo-
grapher Exipose' Kirkland. Kirkland,
wstM his gadget bag, along with Cross
and Loggins made the potograph in
the outdoor studies located behind
the club headquarters.
A dramatically inclined member of
the group is. 'ICount" Jean Justice,

As the last few days of sum-
mer school go their sluggish
way, one takes time to reflect
a bit on things. Wilth so many
things influencing our life now-
adays and pushing us this way
and that, it is little wonder that
we become confused about what
our life has amounted to or will
amount to. More specifically,
what has our time spent in col-
lege meant to us? Well, perhaps
nothing.
Probably to some students,
college has meantsimply a
place to hang around between
beach seasons. To others, it is
a place to park the sports car
mom and dad gave him for
Christmas or Mother's Day.
Maybe someone will remember
mainly the little brown roaches
who carried away left over
crumbs from the dorm rooms.
lit seems doubtful nowadays
that we will remember the col-
lege physical plant itself. We
sing of course of "halls of ivy"
and "ole Nassau Hall and in
some places we say, unfortu-
nately, this place seems rather
devoid of ivy-covered walls at
the moment. Anyway they're
(torn down and built up so fast
that no person can really become
attached to themunless you
happen to be like the student
who was necking with his girl
in the arboretum one afternoon,
and a few minutes later looked
up to find that Rawl Building
had been built around him.
No, probably those who have
given sober thoughts to college
will remember not buildings or
beaches bujt peoplepersonali-
ties. I don't mean exactly the
College Union personalities or
ivy-league type personalities;
rather I am talking about the
relationships which the student-
has had with one or more pro-
fessors. It is the sharing of ideas
between a professor and stu-
dent, above and beyond the
classroom level, that really cons-
titutes the basic heart of the
college educational experience.
Here at college the real trans-
fere of knowledge often occurs
in situations outside of the class-
roomrin everyday conversa-
tions after clasa sessions, or
over a beer down at the Varsity.
In general, just working and

Yeah I'm in the special class this
term, sure, I like it all right; we
have lots of fun and tfcie work's got
some sense to it. I can do it. Why did
I get put there? Well, T ain't sure.
The report said I Ifcad a low I. Q but
nobody noticed it till last Spring
when I couldn't get along in Miss
Brown's class. She gave me the test
and whiten I handed' in my paiper she
looked at it, and said, Just what I
thought, 1 knew he didn't belong
here
Yea1 j, it was something they call an
intelligence test. It was awful funny.
At first I thought it was a joke but
it turned out it wasn't. You had to
put crosses on pictures and circles
around 'em. There was sentences to
write YES or NO after; sentences
like tfrfts: "A carpenter builds houses
i wrote NO because my old man's a
caiipenter and he ain't built a house
in four years. He's workin' on the
railroad track. The boy that sat next
to me put NO on every other sen-
tence and then filled the rest witih
YES. He got a swell mark. I read'
so slow I only got four done before
the time was up. I get so tired, of
bein hurried up all tfhje time.

TlSwfflL -Mhl way in which broadcasting arrange-
defttetsCshown .toward broadcasting
rf the hlett- e e ' s at EC. It seems that the school and the
fer- .K he finest of publicity not only through the means
of radio but the North Carolina newspapers should accept these
tacts as well. ,
There is no doubt in anyone's mind that East Carolina is
the growingest school in the State and a rising institution among
the Nation's colleges and universities. The athletic program and
its future plans have aided this growth, hence recognized PMHi
citv tor these remarkable accomplishments should be brought
to the eyes of the reader not ony in eastern North Carolina but
to the entirety of the North State.
Certain newspapers covered the national champion base-
ball Pirates remarkable, but in some portions of the state the
team coverage was very poor. This is an example ol some of the
poor publicity that the college has been receiving from outside
sources throughout the state. But this is a state supported in-
stitution with practically an equilibrium in the total enrollment
throughout the entire state.
in fact EC has the second highest enrollment of any state
supported school in North Carolina. Only the University can say
riat thej are larger during the regular school year. therefore
the interest of East Carolina touches all corners of the state and
there are probably many sports fans in different localities that
wonder how the Pirates are doing.
A good example of this publicity coverage concerning its
basic needs for the people would be the interest of the thousands
of ex-East Carolina school teachers. Naturally, when the stu-
dents of the future are teachers and wonder off into different
areas they will want to know about their alumni. Out of 79,000
school teachers in North Carolina there is definitely a pretty
fair percentage EC graduates.
This publicity is very important at the present and during
the future, fc seems that all North Carolina newspapers, as great
as many of them might be, owe it to an institution of this size
for greater publicity it nan ever in the years to come.
Although tip-off time for the basketball season is still
lour months away the Winter sports is definitely making news
at EC during this particular time of the year. Coach Earl Smith,
win the B League softball champion-
ship. The unbeaten old grade, 10-0 at
tfte start of this week, are a shoe-in
to display their talents against the
A League winners which will eilfcer
he the Unknowns 8-2 or the Virgin-
ians f-3.
Tiest' two A League nines were
scheduled to ptag Wednesday of this
week, and again Wednesday of next
week. The latter contest will be a
nmkMivp game from a .rainedut
affair of August 3.
Lambda Chi, last sessions e amp-
broke a 11 lie last Wednesday
xth and defeated the Vir-
tue hard working mentor and scout has recuited four top pros-
pects for the coming season.
The EC coach has been fortunate in obtaining- the ser-
vices of Gary Lattimore from Silver Springs, Maryland, Richard
Williams of Muncey, Indiana, Bill Brogden from Wilmington,
N. C, and Fred Flenston Selvy a product of Albany, Indiana.
"Any of these boys couid fit into our plans deeply Smith
stated. It seems that the Hues would have been hurting for height
if the services of rangy Gary Lattimore could have not been
reached. Lattimore is a prize prospedt with a 68" frame and 230
pounds represented under the boards. The Muncey, Indiana na-
tive Richard Williams is but 62" which is not tall for collegiate
basketball but Williams gets his feet off rthe floor well and can
play the pivot with exceptional ability.
An all-Stater at Wilminglton comes Bill Brogden the son
ions,
in the
giroans wit a 6-nm production in
that particular frame. Buddy Welch
pitched a fine ball game in the 7-1
victory for Nick IIHurt's team. The
loss knocked the Virginians out of a
first place tie with Beasly Jones' Un-
knowns.
Robert Moore's Has Beens seem to
he getting only competition from the
managed by Dallas
Foscue. The Outlaws dropped out of
the B eircuU and the Rebels seem to
have their trouble winning games.
In A League competition it seems
as bong Lambda CW and Pi Kappa
A'pha are stronger than their re-
cord appears. Both teams have knock-
ed off the two top teams and Lambda
(hi has barely missed defeating the
Unknowns in their last two outings.
In fact it appeared as though the
fraternity nine would turn back the
league leaders in thir last two outings,
but ti ie Unknown, who usually win
m the last one or two innings, rallied
each contest tor the victory. Buddy
Welch has been the big factor in the
Lambda Cihi success with his staedy
pitching and ability at tie plaite to
heat out the all important bunt in
the game of Softball.
Thus far in t4e Leagues it seems
as though
experience, tf eir pitching, and top
notch hitting for their victories. For
instance, the experienced teams such
as the Has Beens, Humps, Virginians,
and Unknowns liave the ability to take
advantage of the mistakes by their
opponents.

Bulla Downs Holliday
In Table Tennis Play
' Brad Bulla defeated BCCTa top
ranked player Charles Holliday to
win the Men's Singles Table Tennis
Tournament held this past week in
the College Union. Bulla, who also
teamed with Charles Russell earlier
this quarter to win the Men's Doubles,
has always been one of the top con-
tenders for the table tennis titles
at ECC; he also won this title the
2nd summer session last year.
Holliday was unable to hit through
the cho-p defense of Bulla, and this
defense coupled with hard backhand
drives was just enough' to win three
.tiaight games in the finals by close
x'ores of 21-17, 21-19, 21-18.
Bulla's only loss in the tournament
have relied on was to Malcolm Griffith, ECC's 3rd
ranked player. Griffith took the first
game in the semi-finals from P.ulla
but was unable to maintain his fast
pace and dropped the last two games.

of the coach at the 4-A high school. The six footer scored 17 points uiar time it definitely appears inevitable that any team including
in the recent East-West All-Sltar encounter held in Greensboro, Detroit can stop fiery Ralph Houk's team.
The talented Brogden led the floor play in the East's 79-63 win
over their rivals.
In Albany, Indiana Fred Selvy averaged better than 30
points per contest. Like the other in-coming Freshmen with the
exception of Lattimore, Selvy is a guard. Of course, Smith could
do plenty of switching next season. East Carolina lost their best
guard in Cotton Clayton (to a professional baseball contract.
However, Lacy West returns at a guard post to team-up with
Benny Bowes, Bill Otte, and sharp shooting Charlie Lewis from
Kinslton to challenge the toughest basketball schedule in EC
history.
Here we are in the latter part of the Summer and it seems
to be the same old story as it was last season in American League
baseball competion. Although a fine Detroit Tiger nine is mak-
ing a challenge at the New York Yankee penant hopes, it ap-
pears that the Bronx Bombers will again be on top.
Of course, in the Senior circuit it appears also to be a two
way race between the Dodgers of Los Angles and the Reds from
Cincinnati. Our prediction finds the Reds and the Yankees meet-
ing in the World Series in September.
The reasons for this, prediction are as follows: Taking
the Junior circuit leaders and trying to form an evaluation of
the New York ball club is not an easy task. Injuries could cer-
tainly cause the Yanks to falter. Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle
both are having the greatest year of their young careers could
easily miss many of the future Yankee contests if a re-occurance
of their aggrevated leg injuries would happen it prevail.
However, New York has more than Roger Maris and
The National league has more of a even battle than the
Junior circuit. But Hhe depth that the Cincihnatti team to be the
primary factor involved when predicting a league championship
for the Ohio team. The Redlegs definitely possess the best pinch
hitters in baseball. This has and should continue to keep -them up
near the top of the standings.
