Drainage and grading work m East Carolina athletic park area on the new ;South Campus is ex- pected to be under way soon. The current project calls for in- stallation, of about 850 linear feet of drainage tile and grading of two new athletic practice fields. The tiling work will allow sub- terranean channeling of an open canal which skirts the south side of ECC's new Ficklen Stadium. Two practice fields will be lo- cated just north of the college's new baseball field, bordering NC Highway 43 south.

Middleton said the center recommends only one course for students who hold full-time jobs or who have not received satisfactory grades in previous terms. The schedule lists five courses each in Kinston and Wash- ington and four in New Bern. Courses which offer five quarter- hours' credit meet twice weekly or the eight-week term. Three quarter-hour courses meet bi- v.reekly for five weeks. Cost is $45 for each five-hour course and $27 for classes offering three hours' credit. Credit gained through the ECC extension program, accord- in to Middleton. is "fully trans- ferable to the College at face val- ue " Students who complete 35 ouarter-hours in the local centers with a C average?including grades of C or better on English, math and historv?may transfer to the East Carolina campus here. A highly musical group, the Chad Mitchell Trio combines the finest folk songs of the past with pungent musical comments on the world of today. Their famous mus- ical director, Milt Okun, arranges their material in a fresh, distinc- tive sound that has made them a vital part of the folk music world in just a few short years. "Look" magazine calls them elf-made citybillies Their increasng pop- ularity with the college set has brought about their many appear- ances in top Chicago ad New York night clubs. The three young men, Mike Friday Commends Ficklen Stadium East Carolina College's new Ficklen Stadium got an admiring look Thursday from the president of the Consolidated University of North Carolina. William C. Fri- day and East Carolina President Leo W. Jenkins interrupted con- ferences on mutual college prob- lems long enough to tour the new stadium on the college's South Campus. Friday called the stadium "very handsome . . . and a fine asset" to the college and Eastern North Carolina. He congratulated Dr. Jenkins and the college for its addition to campus facilities here. After inspecting: the stadium, Fri- day told Jenkins: "You've done it right. It is very handsome The UNC president said he plans to attend the stadium's dedica- tion ceremonies scheduled for September 21 when East Caw- Una opens its 1963 home football season in a game with Wake Forest. Friday also praised a new- portable stage, an aluminum shell for outdoor stage productions in Ficklen Stadium. He said the port- able facility will be useful in carry- ag out one of the responsibilities of colleges and universities: that of providing performances by pro- fessional artists for area audien- ces. East Carolina is currently ex- ploring the possibility of bringing to Creeville various Broadway- type and other professional stage productions. The aluminum shell would fit into those plans as an outdoor stage in Ficklen Stadium to provide at moderate per-ticket costs professional stage produc- tions for large audiences. Dr. Jenk- ins recently returned from a trip through four Northeastern states where he ivestigated the oossibil- ities of bringing top-flight pro- fessional shows here. Frosh Registration To date, 1500 freshman have been pre-reristered for the Fall Quart- er. This svstem of pre-registra- ttion, will aid in alleviating the num- erous long lines usually found during frosh orientation. In addit- ion to this one day orietation pro- gram, freshman and transfer stu- dents will be required to attend a three-day program beginning Sep- tember 9. Notice Barring any unforeseen reason for a Lpecial edition, this issne of the EAST CAROLINIAN is the final newspaner to be printed this term. Publication wlil resume September 10, on a twice weekly basis, with a special orientation issue. Kabluk, Joe Frazier, and Chad Mitchell, all from the western section of the country, collect their material from every possible source?other folksmgers, the Li- brary of Congress, field recordings, and 'the many "chic" satiric night dub revues they appear in. Urban ajid often satirical, they aim their material at the big-time folk au- dience and away from the seekers of ethnic authenticity. The group turns away from the more popular side of singing and sticks to the serious folk-song singing. Their sa- tire includes controversial spoofs on such subjects as the John Birch S ciety, Billie Sol Estes, and many others. One of the Trio's first record albums, for Colpix Records, con- tains a dozen of some of the best folk songs recorded. "The Gollows Tree" is one of their more popular songs that has boosted them to- ward greater fame. They never claim to be "folk- singer's since, to the group's way of thinking, a folksinger is one who has experienced the tilings about which he sings and lias in- timate knowledge of the particular areas from which his music springs. However, the Chad Mitch- ell Trio does make considerable use of folk material, feeling that the folk idiom conveys, in the most artistic and effective manner, those ideas with which the Trio identi- fies and wishes to express. The boys, all in their 20's adapt their tunes to a quasi-folk style, with heavy reliance on topical banter. Tomorrow night should be one of the biggest nights for enter- tainment on the College campus for this summer. A standing-room - only-crowd is expected to be on hand to applaud the Chad Mitchell Trio as they walk on the stage. Communique WASHINGTON: Tho military chiefs of the Air Force, Army, Navy, and Marines united Monday, August 19th, in support of the limited nuclear test ban treaty pro- videing minimum security safe- guards. Their support of the treaty, before a joint public hearing of the. Senate Foreign Relations, Armed Services, and Atomic Enery Committees, is conditioned on comprehensive, aggresive, and continuing underground weapons testing permitted under the treaty. OXFORD: James Meredith, a slight man of 30, became the first Negro to graduate from the Uni- versity of Mississippi in its 115- year history. Without incident, he received what some are calling "the 5-million dollar diploma that being the estimated cost of the soldiers and US Marshals nec- essary to get and keep Meredith at 'Ole Miss Meredith marched out to "Pomp and Circumstance" with 379 other graduates while a crowd of 2,500 whites and 40 of his family and friends looked on quietly. GREENVILLE: Carolina's Bord- er Belt tobacco growers remain concerned over low prices. They are saying that the new "S" grade symbol, denoting a click or im- mature leaf, is one reason that season averages are running al- most nine dollars per hundred pounds lower than at the same t;me last year. The onenincr of the Eastern North Carolina Belt was postponed from Wednesday until Thursday of this week because of feared low prices and because buy- e?s are still needed on the Georgia- Florida Belt. iiiiiiiii ihiiiiiim 2?east Carolinian?thursday, august 22, 1963 II finesse Supposing that East Carolina lacks that certain finesse claimed by many of the larger schools, we maintain that def- inite strides are being made and, as a result, the College will be a possessor of just that. In educational and extra-cur- ricular advantages, we note that additions are constantly being made. President Leo W. Jenkins returned last week from a trip North in search of a theatrical company to perform Summer stock on the campus next year. Such performances would be given in the recently-acquired portable outdoor stage, the only one of its kind. And, naturally, the new 16,000 capacity stadium would be in use and capable of seating all the student body and a large portion of the community for any one performance. The trip, needless-to-say, was success- ful. Now, we understand, interested parties will be visiting the campus to see first-hand the many advantages East Carolina has to offer such an undertaking. We trust they will see the College as we see it . with that something extra, we call it finesse, A young lady we happen to know applied to East Caro- lina and the Woman's College of the University of North Carolina for enrollment in the Fall as a freshman. The stu- dent in question was accepted without restriction at W C, but rejected by East Carolina unless she attended Summer School and proved herself capable of doing college work. Her College Board scores were not high enough for automatic scholastic acceptance at East Carolina. An investigation in- forms us that the required Scholastic Aptitude Test scores for East Carolina are now equal to the requirements for en- trance at the Consolidated University. Naturally, with se- lectivity of applicants increased, the productive require- ments of students already in school has been raised. Such growth qualitatively adds finesse to any institution. The young lady, by the way, selected ECC and is now attenpting to prove her capabilities as a student. East Carolina steps into a new system of campus justice when Fall Quarter opens. The College is "a city within a city and rules and regulations on our campus are made by the students Students are adults and treated like such. Stu- dents make the rules and try the offenders. This is the honor system. It will operate with honor councils, house councils, and judiciary councils. All will be student-controlled. Ap- peals may be made to an Appeals Board. An attorney general will be working for the student through investigations and representation. For what more could one ask? The Department of Geography ranks third in size of the undergraduate departments of geography in the nation. Two of the past three years have found East Carolina in the finals of the National Association of Inter-Collegiate Ath- letics baseball playoffs. In 1961, the championship went to ECC. Just this Summer, the College had eleven of its stu- dents participating in the Miss North Carolina Pageant, Such notables in their fields as Ovid Williams Pierce, Francis Speight, and Martin Mailman, to mention but three, are on the faculty of East Carolina. All adds to but one thing. One, other than those of us who really know the College, may not really ascertain that the institution now possesses such finesse as does Yale, Har-
