Cathy, a lovely brunette social studies major, is a junior at EC. She is active in many phases of camp,u.s life. Cathy was sponsored by her sisters, members of Chi Omega social sorority, in the yearbook queen competition. On Monday of last week, she and the other 41 contestants were judged on the basis of facial beauty from por- traits submitted to a student-fa- euk.y committee. On Friday a tea was given in honor of the six finalists in the competition. These finalists were interviewed by five well-known judges with Cathy be- ing selected as the "fairest of the fair" on the basis of beauty, poise, and personality. Judges for the final (phase of competition were Frank Gorshin, of movie and television fame; Val- jean Johns, renown pianist; Mrs. James T. Little, Jr former Miss Kinston; Mrs. N. O. Van Nort- wick who works with the local Miss Greenville pageant; and Louis Collie, East Carolina graduate who works with a national in- surance firm. Questions asked the contestants in individual appearances before the five judges, included "What was your reason for selecting East Carolina as your institution of your own hair for your aprearance before us today? "What are your plans upon graduation from ECC? and "Give us your opinion of the recent Ole Miss incident?" The judges later commented on the high qualities of personality and beauty displayed by all six contestants. Selecting one girl was a difficulty choice, commented the judges. Cathy's sister-finalists in the competition were Sue Little, JuJia A. Payne, Marilyn Miller, Kaye Modlin, and Kathy Wesson. Each will be featured in the 1963 BUC- CANEER, with Cathy being pic- tured in color. As Buccaneer Queen, Cathy made her first appearance during the Playhouse To Hold Try outs For Series Of One-Act Plays Tryouts for a number of one-act .

Since most of the plays are short, the Play- house directors feel that they will attract people who have insuf- ficient time to devote to work in a full-length play. Auditions are open to all stu- dents, faculty, and residents of the college community and Green- ville.

Frank Gorshin, the last performer, may have been displeased with his deception�especially when about a fourth of the audience left in the middle of his act . . . Johnny Nash and Valjean earned a good response . . . Whoever named "Chubby" Silvers "Chub- by" must have been the master understatement . . . Con- gratulations to Tomye Suggs for being chosen Home- coming Queen. The parade seemed to go pretty well We notice that the "Collegiate" had a big entry . . . Congratulations to Theta Chi. Most people seemed to think they deserved first place even before it was announced that they had won it. Spirits seemed to be at a low ebb at the football game. The local gestapo mav have had something to do with that. It seems a shame that they were so con- cerned with controlling the college crowd that they had no time to protect the cheerleaders from being run down by school children. The presence of the police seems to indicate that someone is not willing to accept every- thing that goes with the "big school" title we are trying so hard to earn for ourselves It may be a minor point, but we feel that a more attractive combination of purple and gold could be incorporated into the football uni- forms. Regardless of that, it's good to see the Pirates back in the winning column . . . The band did its usual good job. It seems that the Music Department is al- ways a step ahead of the rest of the school in excellence. The situation after the game emphasized the need for more and better restaurants in Greenville. Maybe one day the town will catch up with the College. That day is a long way off. Saturday night was filled with parties. As usual, this was the high spot of the weekend . . . One o'clock permission came in handy. The restaurants were filled with haggard looking people Sunday and the population of Greenville decreased again as imported dates and guests departed A melancholy look and "See you Thanksgiving The rest of the day was a total loss as we tried to face the fact that Monday was inevitable.

Not with a bang, but with a whimper. �IT. S. Elk Thus ended Homecoming weekend at EC for 1962. We feel that we should blame somebody concerning the apparent disappointment of many students for being unable to attend the enter- tainment series Friday night because of limited space. We have no complaints against the SGA since it only planned the program and did not enact the rule which stated that Wright Auditorium would have a ca; aciry of two thousand students. That rule came from the local fire department whose primary concern was, without doubt, the safety of everyone. With such a purport, we would feel like a heel blaming the fire department. Still, something seems to be wrong when more 1ian half of the student body was unable to attend the program which they themselves more than half paid for. iCould we say that the Adminis- tration is to blame? Or President Jenkins? Perhaps the problem would be less serious if we could rightly blame one of these, but we know we cannot. The problem would not be as intense and complicated as it is if we could say that the State Legislature is at fault, or even the governor. But we have to admit -plainly that last year's legislature did all that it could for EC. Our governor, too. is otenly on our side all the way. So where does the blame lie? When we think about this ques- tion we are forced to come to an evitable answer�an answer that is deep-rooted, but one which points almost directly to the people of this state who defeated the badly-needed bond referendum last year.

Tuesday, October 23 Page EAST CAROLINIAN From The Top Of The Stack LLOYD "STACK" LANE Pirates St Newberry s Ind Our Homecoming game was the best game the Pirates have played this year�I think everyone agrees on that. Why, is a different matter. I would be a fool to say that the Pirates were not good offensively, because they were. But EC has been good offensively all season. Why should Saturdays how of strength surprise us? We beat a strong team. New- berry showed that to 9,000 people when they held that 8-6 lead for three quarters. The Indians were good. They showed it again to Lenoir Rhyne when they nearly upset the LR bandwagon before losing in the final five minutes 15-14. How did we beat Newberry if they were so goodThat was a question I was asked after the game. I will go along with this comment that Coach Stasavich made to the reporters after the game: "The defensive line won the game. We hadn't stopped anybody this year, and it sure was nice to see us stop New- berry out there today It seems that the biggest problem the Pirates faced this year was their leaky defense (especially late in the game when a tight defense is very important). Every Pi- rate loss has been in the final quarter. Coach Stasavich stated that he had been working the defense more than usual the week before the Newberry game. A few of you may have noticed the promotion of two new starters to the defensive team�Bill Brett to defensive guard, and Bill Bailey to linebacker. Both played excellent defensively for the Pirates. Brett broke through the line against Newberry and was in on many tackles. Bailey swiped a fourth-quarter pass that led to the fourth Pirate score. Something that should have been noted about the de- fense is that they worked more as a defensive UNIT than just eleven men out there trying to stop Newberry from scoring. More spirit and hustle were shown. The shifting defensive tactics caused Newberry some concern; in fact, one time the shifting tactics caused the Newberry quarter- back to call a time out to call a new play. He called three plays in that sequence�one in the huddle, one at the line, and another after the time out. This defensive strength, if it keeps up, should cause some interesting games in the next two weeks with Appalachian and Lenoir Rhyne.

I wonder if there will be an increase in basketball play- ers from New York and Kentucky next fall. The rumor that Arnold Palmer is going to coach the golf team next year is completely unfounded. It would be interesting to see what would happen if our Baby Bucs played the Varsity. There w7as some curios- ity over the outcome especially after our Baby Bucs knocked off nationally-ranked Chowan. Talk about EC being loaded with football material this year, the freshman team manager was called upon to play right halfback against the defensive team. He was to simu- late some of Elan's plays. The ball was handed off to him from the quarterback, and he took off for a 50 yard gain. Somebody better sign him up before Elon hears of it. (The Elon back also used that play with some success.)

Newberry's highly rated offense could not get going against the strong, aggressive Pirate defense, which held Newberry to 98 yards on the ground and 64 yards passing while the Pirates gained 170 yards ushirg and 110 yards passing. After a scoreless first period, Newberry line backer Wes Murphy picked off a Bill Cline pass that gave the Indians the ball on the Pirate 12-yard line, where right halfback Irvin Fordham swept left end for the touchdown. A pass from quarterback Tom Gormon to Fordham gave the Indians the two-point conversion and an 8-0 lead. The Pirates came back a few minutes later on a 61 yard drive that was engineered by the ruiHiing of tailback Vince Eiduke and full- back Billy Strickland. Strickland climaxed the drive with a 22-yard off-tackle run for the TD. Tail- back Bill Clime was caught behind the line before he could get a pass off for the two-point con- version attempt. The defense of both teams held for the rest of the second quarter, and Newberry left the field at half- time with an 8S lead. Newberry's 8-6 lead held up until the fourth quarter when the Pirate offense went into high gear. Tailback Bill Cline, after a lateral from fullback Bill Bailey, threw a 38-yard pass to end Dave Bum garner for what turned out to be the deciding touchdown. Cline ran for the two-point conversion that gave the Pirates a 14-8 lead with nine minutes re- maining in the game. Newberry received the ball and couldn't move it, thanks to some outstanding defensive play 'by the Pirate line. A fourth down Indian punt was blocked by Richard Huneycutt, and the Pirates took over first and ten on the New- berry 10-yar dline. A few seconds later, tailback Eiduke passed to the Pirates a 20-8 lead. Less than two minutes later, linebacker Bill Bailey intercepted a stray Indian toss. The passing combination of Eiduke to Anderson struck again on another 10-yard TD -pass. Eiduke kept that football in the air lanes as he hit blocking back Maurice Allen for the two- point conversion that gave the Pirates a 28-8 lead with only four minutes left in the game. Newberry quarterback Gor- man desperately went to the air only to have another pass intercepted by the alert Pi- rate secondary. Larry Rudisill was the villian for the In- dian as he picked off the Gor- man pass and ran the ball back to the Indian 30-yard line. The Bucs took over with 45 stconds remaining on the clock. On third down, using a flay called at the line of scrimage because of lack of time and no more time- outs left, Vince Eiduke faded to the right and passed to blocking lack Maurice Allen for the final touchdown. The game had ended after the ball was snapped, which rr-ade the touchdown play legiti- mate.
