In mere recent times, The Lost Colony come to be more than a symphonic eana; it ! ;s sparked i he inteiest of the people of the northeastern counties of Xort Carolina to make themselves not citizens of 'Lost' Pro- vinces but a vital part of America, a sleeping giant who thtas awakened. It might be right to give some credit to 'The Lost Colony' for in- spiring tie people of North Carolina to become more concerned with the dram at if arts and music.

Church Action Alleviates Campus Housing Shortage President Leo W.

Earlier this week, the members of the oatxl of stewards at St. James Chuixt voted to conduct a survey of 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.

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 .fiA8 0nhe Prch until 10:30. Miss Bizzlle 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, who splays the part of "Jim" in the latest Playhouse production. In his part time, Justice is employed by the ' HE!

W for the students who hung Dean mStaSnfaS wrww 1 A 1mm If iyfl W 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 studying alongside & person who is not a teacher but a dedicated researcher in a particular field that constitutes the real edu- cational experience. This writer considers himself fortunate that he has had the acquaintance o a teacher or two who cared more about giv mg of Ui Iraowtodg and m$m ience even if it meant thaft a cold supper would be waiting for him at home. This more than the dances or the scenery will constitute my main impression of college. In closing, I say so long to my colleague, J. Alfred, pounding away at the other typewritten Please, address all letters con- cerning my column to Mr. Willis who will forward them to me at Fort Jackson, where I will be continuing my education. tl.e helm.

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. Runner-up Charles Holliday was favored to take th lot seamed unable to get . . gene under control.

At this partic- 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.
