East Carolina could not possibly enter the Southern Conference in the near future and compete ath- letically on the basis of limited scholarships. The Bucs presently offer 38 football scholarships and 10 for basketball. The conference has had its win- ter meeting in High Point. Dr. Earl Ruth of Catawba adopted a motion to poll the members and ee if they planned to abide by conference rule limiting athletic scholarships. Reach Decision In January The new conference rules of limited scholarships will not affect EC until the January 22 meeting. Then Dr. Jenkins will make his ieeision. Dr. Jenkins states, "the ECC Athletic Committee is study- ing this problem of scholarships and will make a decision after the meeting of the presidents of the member schools to be held in Salis- buiy on January 22 Conference Wants EC It is evident that the Southern Conference "wants" EC as a mem- ber as indicated by conference sur- vey officials, who were in Green- ville last week. EC's keen ambit- ious athletic program of a new stadium, and possible field house, as well as a possible enrollment of 6000 students in the near fu- ture brightens the hope of possible EC membership to the SC. With- drawal from the Carolinas Confer- ence due to the limited scholarships would be a step of necessity in ord- er for East Carolina to compete in the SC. A change in the limited scholarship rule on January 22 may keep EC in the Carolinas Con- ference. The Weaker Sex shows the boys that they too are civic minded.

Pasre 2 E AST CAROLINIAN lwfayiPmn.t EC Red Cross Blood Donations Break All Pitt County Records EC's terrific response to the Red Cross Blood Program last week, an action commendable, broke all records for Pitt County. As Blood Program Chairman, Kenneth Whichard, stated and we agree, " . . certainly It presents a new challenge to us in the community from our young people at East Caro- lina College Unofficial reports noted that out of the record break- ing 264 pints of blood collected, over 250 pints can be ac- credited to the college. The organized efforts of Deans Ruth White, James Mallory, James Tucker and Col. N. E. Merritt are largely responsible for the tremendous turn-out of student blood donors. Although the fairer sex, seen more in actual donating on this visit of the bloodmobile than before, didn't engage outstandingly in giving blood, they were on hand to serve refreshments to blood donors. Through Panhellenic, sqrori- ty women worked in shifts of one hour to add to the sue- cessful program. Several organizations conjtributed largely to the more than doubled average quota of 125 pints. The Air Force ROTC led the donors with 52 pints, followed by EC Indepen- dents with 46; Kappa Alpha, 42; Lambda Chi Alpha, 28; Phi Kappa Tau, 23; Theta Chi, 18; and Aycock Dorm, 15. With the approaching holiday season, Whichard fur- ther pointed out, "East Carolina's generous gift will help to meet the abnormal needs at this time of the year 'Banner Day' On EC Campus Jenkins Commends Achievements Dear Editor: Wednesday, December 6, was indeed a banner day here on the campus. I am writing this letter to bring to the attention of all the students two accomplishments that brought a great deal of credit to all of us. First, through the vigorous work of the manv fra- ternity men, assisted by the student body in general, the campus broke an all-time Pitt County record in the amount of blood donated during a visit of the Bloodmobile. I can assure you the people of Pitt County are very grateful for this accomplishment. Secondly, it is with a great deal of pleasure and pride that I am able to state that we have surpassed our assigned quota of $25,000 toward the stadium fund. You have brought a. great deal of honor and respect to the campus through these achievements. They also do much to quiet some of the critics of college students who seem to contend that our young people are without a sense of responsibility. I am very proud of your achievements and want to thank you for two jobs well done. Sincerely yours, Leo W.

Unfortunately, the fall edition of the East Carolina College lit- erary magazine, the Rebel, has not, I hope, accurately reflected either of these challenging- potentials. The Rebel is subordinated to and marred by a completely unsubstan- tiated and poorly executed social bias of the editor, Junius D. Grimes, III. From the opening statement of the editorial we are told that "prob- ably the most difficult assignment faced by the college magazrihe is the establishment of a point of iew which has any degree of sus- tained consistency For the cur- rent editor, sustained consistency is indeed a difficulty. For the edi- tor says in the same paragraph that he has subjected1 the magazine to his own "caprice "Caprice" is defined in tihe dictionary as "sudden whims and impulses He further contradicts himself, again in the same paragraph, by concluding that his personal ca- price is the comibined policy of the entire Rebel staff. The design of the editorial is a condemnation of "conservation As ,so often happens to the juve- nile critic who merely flings a fit and expels emotionally, Mr. Grimes does not define his terms! For a better understanding- of the term "conservatism one might suggest to the Rebel editor ?a familiarity with John Stuart Mills On Liberty, Herbert Spen- cer's The Man Versus the State, and the writings of Edmund Bwrke. or a contemporary view, the quarterly periodical, Modem Age may be consulted.

If Editor Grimes feels he must bear the socio-political cross of liberalism, one might advise an acquaintance with the editorial pages of the Washington Post and the excellent left wing periodical: The Reporter, The Nation, and The New Republic. His current state of liberal edi- fication reeks of an indoctrination by way of Walter Ruether's, COPE, News and Observer editorials, and the sensationalisms of Drew Pear- son. Willy Alligood (The South) Let us now scrutinize Mr. Grimes' gem of ambiguous, pre- tentious, smug, and confused psuedo-intellectualism, entitled "Faded Crey, Faded Overhauls (sic)?Fading Promise?" Editor Grimes proposes not to defame the south and its people, yet he personifies the typical eastern North Carolina farmer and then the common southerner as "poor and ignorant"?(Willy Alligood. Mr. Grimes apparently has tried to depict Willy Alligood much in the same fashion as Red Skelton portrays Clem Kadiddle- hopper. However, even Clem, or the most backward southern farmer would be elated if phosphate or gold or -uranium were found under his land. Perhaps ignorance fears :he presence of outsiders, but there is nothing like the outsider's money to alleviate this distrust.

He should also be encouraged to visit such progressive eastern North Carolina communities as Wilson, Rocky Mount, Roanoke Rapids, Kinston, Goldsboro, and Farmville. If Mr. Grimes wants to make a constructive protest, he could ask why North Carolinians have the third highest state-taxes per pers- on in the nation, and wthy with these revenues plus a 3 food tax we wallow among the bottom 45 of the 50 states in all state sup- ported undertakings ? One will agree that reform is needed?starting at the top. The way Governor Sanford took the state for granted and merely talked down to the voters on the recent bond issue and the manner in which Mr Grimes takes our ig- norance for granted and talks) down to his readers, are indicative of such need. Mr. Willy Alligood will come along, only if the leadership (from the top) is enlightened, patient and understanding. "Liberal and honest progress" will be made only when the terms are defined and a clear choice for the future is intelligently presented. Sudh primary problems as satisfactory race relations and the need for a virile two-party sys- tem in the South must first be met. Then the southern people, with a united and well represented front will proceed to their un- limited destiny. By extending the courtesy to overlook the editor's comments about the magazine's contributors (page 31); we may conclude that Mr. Grimes has, at least, made a serious attemipt to be serious, and that should be complimented, for it is rare among the students at ECC (football stadiums ex- cluded, of course). It is with regret that the result is found, therein, unfortunate. The conclusion of the Rebel Re- view will appear in itflie next edi- tion of the East Carolinian.

America's cities are full of houses. America's forests are full of trees. America's rivers are full of water.

Therefore, when I was told that Marlboro was a top seller at colleges from USC to Yale, I was not content merely to accept this gratifying fact, I had to find out why.

Over 2000 fans witnessed a spec- tacular showing by the Buc's Char- lie Lewis from Kinston. The 6-1 Co-Captain hit .on 11 out of 15 from the floor and 4 for 4 from the free-throw line for 26 points. The Spiders stayed with the Carolina team, leading 49-46 in the early stages of the last half. However, the Richmond quint hit a cold spell and Coach Earl Smith's hot five took advantage of the Spider elapse and rolled-up a sizeable lead that the home team could not overtake. Veteran Benny Bowes from Burl- ington aided Lewis in the EC scoring, and netted 23 markers. It was a great team victory for the the Bucs and one of the moat spectacular basketball wins in EC's history.
