C, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1962 al Buc Beauty Greenville Airport Cas An investigation by the Civil Aeronautics Board is now in pro- gress to determine if an area air- port in eastern North Carolina is justified. The cities of Gold&boro, Kinston, Rocky Mount, and "Wilson, which at present have local air- ports, are opposed to the idea. The present 'hearing is the third such investigation. The first hear- ing was organized under the East- em Carolina Airport Authority Law. The failure of the city of Wilson and Nasfo County to par- ticipate meant the defeat of the first hearing.

Nevertheless, Dr. Bing of the Industrial Arts Department says that more expansion is a necessity. Mr. Duncan, EC busi- ness manager stated: "The college is requesting more funds from the 1963 legislature for more classrooms. All class- room buildings are being used to their fullest extent. This new ad- dition will provide some relief to the Science and Industrial Arts De- partment in taking care of the in- creased number of students.

(Photo by Bill Weidenbacher) Page 2 Awareness There is, to put it mildly, a shocking contrast be- tween the social and political awareness of the seemingly awrage student of many foreign countries and the com- plete indifference of most American students. This is, however, improving�or so it seems. Evidences of the improvement could be seen in the recent demonstrations against the House Un-American Activities Committee and the even more recent Ban-the- Bomb marches in New York. The issues involved in these incidents are less important than the fact that there were enough interested students to stage note- worthy demonstrations. Generally speaking, the Amer- ican college student is becoming more aware of the world in which he finds himself. If, however, we stop talking about the student of America and start talking, more specificially, about the student of North Carolina, we would be hard-pressed to offer evidence to show that we too, are becoming more aware of the state of the world. Here at EC it is dif- ficult to live through a day without seeing the evidence of this indifference. It is a regretful situation, but the average student here seems to be clinging to the college-man image of the fifties�fun-loving, socialable, academically mediocre, drunk. It is best left to sociologists to tell us why this situation exists, but you might want to give some thought to the fact that, in spite of your shiney Weejuns and even shinier fraternity pins, you're ten years behind the rest of the world. About Those Bulletins It is interesting to note that after last weeks' paper in which we expressed a desire to de-emphasize the bulletin board section of the EAST CAROLINIAN, we received three times as many bulletins for this edition. We are, at present, considering armed rebellion.

THE BRAMBLEBUSH By JIM WILLIS As the long days of summer slowly fade into the shorter days of autumn, we find that another summer has silently as the Arabs folded iher tent and stolen away. And here we are again, IBM and all. ready to face the many challenges that lie ahead of us in the year to come. We have many things to ilook foreward to; and as always, there are things to be dreaded. Of the former, there is Homecoming and the morning after, Thanksgiving, iChristmas, the snow, the White Ball, and the thrill that school will soon be out. Of the latter, we apeak of the many dreaded exams, books to be read, themes to be written, grouchy instructors, and eight o'clock classes. But in the end, it will be a rewarding year for most of us when we realize that it's the things we dread most that will make sophomores of freshmen, juniors of sophomores, seniors of juniors, and graduates of seniors. Speaking of the IBM, we hate to knock the efficiency of the old man buit we know of a student who had three five hour courses sched- uled for eight o'clock Monday through Friday. Not that such a sched- ule would not be efficient if one couJld do it, but for most people the whole idea seems just a bit ridiculous. Incidentally, in attemspftimg to drop two of the eight o'clock classes, one instructor meekly asked the student, "Do you feel that it is absolultetty necessary for you to drop this course?" If you missed seeing or hearing EiCC's opening game with Rich- mond, you missed one of the most exciting games for EC in a long time. Though the Pirates were nipped by the Panthens for the lack of an extra point, their performance was great. Incadeflitally, it's com- forting to know also that the Pirates have the stpport of Dick Herbert, one of North Carolina's most respected sportswriters. Our editor has referred to us as being biting Tkough that's just one way of stating our ipoiirpose, we feel the need to bring out the fact that we have no personal, political, or social axes to grind. Our ipourpose is, as the name of this column indicates, to bramble. We intend to do exactly that, pointing out what we think are both the good and bad facets of East Carolina College, We feel no responsibility to the administration, the SGA, or to anyone except the student body. We welcome all comments via a letter to the East Carolinian. "Make It Easy On Yourself" is a popular and familiar tune with all students, but the title serves a double purjpose on the East Caro- lina campus. The second purpose is connected with the ever popular College Union. This year, for the first time in Bast Carolina's his- tory, students are being permitted to carry their refreshments into the lounge ipart of the Union. This is made possible by the presence of approximately fifteen trash re- ceptacles inside the CU and around the terrace. The cootperation of all students in keeping the CU clean is a necessity if we want to con- tinue with this mew privilege. So "make it easy on yourself" by tak- ing pride in your CU. Along with something new there should aflrways be something old and familiar. The CU provides us with this in its many and varied activities.
