[28: CAMPU LIFE a n DIARY September 21: Dear Olc E. C. T. C, I ' m making pledge to you tonight : On every special day of tliis precious year of 1935-36, I shall record wliat you meant to me that day. Then wluii I yrow old and gray — shall I ever do that? — I ' ll take out my diary and we ' ll talk again aliout our best memories. But I shall not need this diary to recall today. — Does every opening day bring so much excitement. ' ' Girls, girls, girls, from ten states they ' ve hccn horning in today. Boys too, trying to sec which one ' s auto horn could greet us loudest. And what halls I Bags and trunks piled everywhere so that tonight we ' re all nursing bruised siiins. My cars nearly luirst too from shouts Hi Mary! Poor Freshies ! What green eggs they were I Yet by lunch they were all signed in, had been trotted to their rooms by bluc- badgcd Y ' s and had begun learning what college life was all about. Tonight they ' ve sliown tliemselves mere kids. While we old girls were holding forth about the summer doings, wails down the hall interrupted our discussion and announced the annual epi- demic of nostalgia. Most of us retired early to console the weeping Freshmen. Mildred McDonald became for the moment Niagara Falls. Joyce Harrell suggested that since the j)ipc water is muddy we cork uj) tlic lava tory and catch the tears for a sliampoo. September 2.5: The Freshmen registered today. What a tumult ! Funny that most of them would not agree that it M ' asn ' t so com- plicated after tlu y had gone through with all the red tape. This afternoon the faculty en- tertained the Freshmen, with a barbecue sup- ])er on back campus. All of them seemed to [30] enjoy tin- f oo(l l ats. lint tin y will kno« n.orr how to Mppi-.-c-i.-i tc .

The uproar was almost as bad as wlun Xylda Cooper found the rat under her jjiUow. Carolyn Brinkley. ' Lih Wilson. ••Judy Cole. Ethel Viek. and .lean Thomas announced to .all of us they had signed up for pr.ietiee teaching. I s ' pose we ' ll hear more about tliat. though. Rachel Stone told them she didn ' t care for practice teaching, but had signed up for everytliing except icthyology. October i: A husky fellow, full of pep, is what we need, and that is what we got. To- night at a mass meeting, we elected ,Ioe Ha- teni as our cheer leader. ,Ioc is a new student, but we believe he can boost the Pirates through a winning season. October 8: .lunior and Senior Primary Majors went to a weiner roast today. Every- body enjoyed eating weiners. Ruth Kiker ate fifteen and then wondered if one more would disturb her digestion. October 12: Practice teaching began to- day. .Joe Hall was so excited assigning her first lesson that her pupils thought she had a case of palsy. Ida Kay Hair sug- gested that her class read To A Sonny Lan- caster. One meek little boy raised his hand and quietly said: Miss Hair, there ' s no such poem. Oh !• ' quavered Ida Kay, I mean •To A Water Fowl ' . October 15: The Teachers in Ragsdale Hall invited their neighbors, the Co-eds, up from the cellar tonight, and gave them a house warming. Miss Wilson, Miss Mack, Miss Cassidy, Miss McKey, Miss Davis — [31] oil, all our teachers — entered whole-heartedlv into tlu various games. The boys said the_v tiijovfd ])layinn: London Brids;e. But they mIso said tile ice ereani and cake wasn ' t so bad. Looks as if our teaeliers iiaven ' t jjrowii up. or tbey may just like to play childish games. October 21: Tonight we had our iirst op- portunity of the year to get together and linak bread at tl:e same table with the facul- ty. Wr quickly learned Teachers Are Peo- ple. . nd the evening clothes I how proud they made us — we all had good looks tonight. Everything went off with a bang. I felt like a real lady playing hostess to our table. After the dinner, everyone went to the Campus Building to see the far-famed dancing of La Argentina I The marshals looked wonderful in their new regalia. .Jewel Cole w.as especial- ly resplendant as ciiief marshal. When La Argentina was first mentioned on the campus. I beliive we would have been more excited () er the coming of .Sally Rami. 15ut now since we have seen her wonderful performance, we are grateful to the college for having the classic lady. .She brought Spain from across the waters to us. November 13; A One Woman show here on our campus ! Miss Cornelia Otis Skinner impersonated the Wives of Henry VIII to- night. Miss Skinner appeared without scen- ery — only heavy velvet drapes and for her first ))art a modern table and a chair or two with costumes and furniture of the period. She is within herself a comjilete theatre, a whole tragic, comic, if not heroic, theatre, in- cidentally that offered us more entertainment than is found in the ])layhouses on Broadway. [32] NovKMHKu 18: Seniors selected tlieir su- pei-lativs toni.nlit.

November 28 : I can hardly realize today is Thanksgiving-. Many things have happened since September 25. I ' ve been thinking all day abont the good times we have had to- gether, but the main thought in my mind has been of those who had to remain at school during the holidays. I wish all of them could have had dinner with me. My! Wouldn ' t that have been nice to have been with all those girls today. December ■!: We always like that which we know something about. This is why we en- joyed Professor Koch ' s reading of Dicken ' s Christmas Carol. In his dramatic way. Dr. Koch gave us a better conception of Christ- mas, and caused us to realize the joy of giv- ing instead of receiving. The reading was so vivid until at times we thought Scrooge was there in the auditorium with us. There ' s something sad about this entertainment, though, for three Sophomores, Margaret Banck, Lib Copeland, and Louise Davis longed to hear him, but they were decorating the dining hall for the formal dinner. That ' s what I call living Christmas. [33] December 11: Senior play: Easy Pick- in ' s tonight. Seniors gone dramatic. Lib Faison a star grunter. Dot Hooks and Jack Humphrey good imitators of a loving couple. — When can we all be stars ? Decemrkr 17: S ' pose everybody is home by now. I can ' t help thinking what a scurry we had getting away. At lunch we swallowed bam sandwiches and ate pickles whole, and tell exhausted into some kind of vehicle to bring us home. At last everyone dashed through the Saturday Evening Post. No more college for two weeks ! jAxr. i!Y 2: Through the Saturday Even- ing Post again. No more Santa Claus I No niiire turkey and fruit cake! We silently filed into our dormitories. Then everybody saw everybody else. My I All these Christmas spoils: watches, compacts, pictures, and rings .Ia.xi ARV i: I was surprised this morning to see a man sitting behind the desk in the Library. But I soon found out that he was Mr. Chilledge, the new librarian. Then I was assured that he was our liiirarian when be finished his talk in Chapel. We sat like statues while he told us about observing the library rules. Lll bet everybody will be quiet in the Library now. Won ' t that be nice! All of us can concentrate on our work or lose ourselves in a good book. January 6: Last night we discussed what Santa Claus had brought us, but we didn ' t know until this morning that Santa had left a commercial department here on our campus. Twenty-six shining new typewriters greeted us when we reached the third floor in Austin. Miss Adams and Mr. Browning, our com- mercial instructors, seemed pleased with the ilickings from each typewriter. [34] January 12: Not iiumy of iis knew Mr. Si) ilman vitv well, tlioiif.|i wr li.ul often v-.-it. ' lu ' .l him st.;ulily Mt work. Now w,- know liini tliroui.li Dr. Mcidows ' tin ' triluitc to him, and alway.s wo shall rcnu ' inhrr him a.s a noble man who kept his Book Balanced — hi.s business books balanced and his life books iialanccd. Jani ' Ahy K): S])rini ' cleaning in January! Yes, it hapiuned at K. C. T. C. Even dainty sylphlike marshals turned into scrub women! Wc like the results — rooms fit for guests to see. Believe we ' ll keep them clean. January 15: Use the vivid imagination of a thousand girls and you will feel the antici- pation with which we looked forward to the coming of Amelia Earhart. After hearing her, we made more pleasant comments about her than about any speaker we have had on our campus this year. Miss Earhart described her trip so vividly that we forgot ourselves and flew with her from Honolulu to Cali- fornia. We tasted a cup of cocoa she drank eight thousand feet above the Pacific, and reached out the window to grasp a handful of the bright stars that shower around her. Everything she said was just this fascinat- ing and just this charming — her slimness, her grace, her inner light, her idealness as a woman who dared to be herself. January 31: Y. VV. C. A. annual services were led this year by a woman, Mrs. Smith, from Duke University. We may forget some of lier ideas about world peace, but how can we ever forget this simple challenge that she quoted — What sort of class Would this class be If every member in it Were just like me? [35] I ' KiiKUARY 1 : Sometimes we act like kids. l?ut not today. Lest we forget, let me re- cord tlic memory now. Assembly hour. Stu- dents lioldinu; a simple memorial program to Rudyard Kipling. The thousand of us rever- ently reading together, as our morning de- votional, his Recessional and sitting in hushed stillness while ten of our girls sang this jirayer-song to De Keren ' s great music. And reverently listening through the rest of the i)rogram. No applause — just quiet. Lest we forget. Fkbiu-ahy 7: Winter weather 1 Down to zero! Snow, rain, sleet, snow, slush, mud, snow, sleet I And flu 1 More beds into the in- tirniary ! More nurses, more doctors I Teach- ers out — fewer classes. ' icks and Musterole and cough syrup and hot soup — and flu! flu! flu! And kindness. Why do we liave to get sick for us to know how good our neighbors .irp? Febriary 14: Here we are near closing of another school year. The Annual completed, Mary. Rachel, and other members of the staff are celebrating. Though there is much rejoicing now, we still have more glorious occasions to look forward to. such as, the Siberian Singers. Mid-Winter d«nces, the arsity Club ' s Annual Minstrel, Junior-Sen- ior, the Student Federation Convention which micts on our campus this year. My ! There is fun to be had and there is also a feeling of sadness when we realize that all too soon Ellen. Mary, and the other Seniors will be bidding us adieu. However, this has been a great year at E. C. T. C. and we will sign otf until next fall. [36] BOOK II 296993 THE CUPOLA HOUSE T HE historic Cupola House in Edenton was built in 1758 by an Englishman, Frances Corbin for his fiance, who died before she reached America. It is now owned by the town and is used as a museum and a public library. LLq Mahv Ukalk Paukkf J ' ic(-} r, ' .siilr„t S.crclan Cynthia Ethhidgi r OUR years ago the campus of E. C. T. C. was brio-htened by the addition of about a liundred and fifty sunbeams. Al- though at first we were only a typical freshman class, it was not long before we were not only seen but heard. Almost at once we chose as our first class president, Ethel Vick; today our class is proud to have her as president of our senior class. Parties, entertainments, banquets, and last but not least, the senior play — these were among the pleasures recorded in our class diary. Pleasures and sorrows, work and play, shared we alike. Now that the time has come for us to leave, a feeling of responsi- bility and gratitude descends upon us. We realize that we should no longer be tiny sunbeams that we were four years ago, but rays of light willing to go out and direct others into the passageway through which we have passed. And so it is with joy and expectation that we say adieu. [41] Kkllv Abeyounis bethel. x. c. History and Matltpriiafics Emma Adcock mahshville. x. c . French and English inaate Junior College (1.

Even on that early day they were impressed by the infinitely superior wisdom and knowledge of the upper classmen. They were bewildered and sometimes, perhaps, embarrassed by this new scheme of things. After safely passing through registration, with all its mys- teries, and initiation, that reign of terror, they were ready to organize as a class. The first officers of the class of thirty-seven were: Doris Nichols, President; Ellen Raekley, Vice-President; Mary Alice Starr, Secretary; and Henrietta Tucker, Treas- urer. The year finally passed, and after vacation they returned with all the assurance of Sophomores. The new class was under the leadership of Geneva Brown, President; Belle Kearney, Vice-President; Frances Edgerton, Secretary; and Martha Hines. Treasurer, and the year passed with the usual scheduled entertainments. In the spring quarter the officers for the following year were elected, and then came vaca- tion again. They came back Juniors, with capable leadership and joyous expectations of that high-light of school life — the Junior-Senior, [81] Licv Rett Abbott Wintervillc, N. C. Kinston. N. C.

Where will we begin? I suppose that she will he excited by a list of our class officers — and of all the prominent boys and girls, which is an exciting list, truly! Genevieve thinks it is really masterful the way Margaret Xorman, our president, conducts a class meeting, and I agree with her. Margaret surely has executive ability.

After many entertain- ments, ordeal of registration, and initiation week, we settled down to our courses. Officers were: President. Xylda Cooper; Vice-President, Annie Mae Ward; Secretary, Bertha Lang; Treasurer, Mary Lawrence Davenport; Council Represen- tative, Elizabeth Copeland. For advisers we chose Miss Holtzclaw and Dr. Slav. Fall quarter the Juniors entertained with the Junior-Freshman party, and we returned the honor winter quarter. In 193.5 we returned haughty Sophomores. Class oflicers included: President. Margaret Banck; Vice-President, Mildred Edwards; Secretary, Mary Lyon Shot- well; Treasurer, Bertha Lang; Council Representative, Elizabeth Copeland. Fall quarter we entertained the Seniors, and winter quarter they honored us. From our group have come officers of various campus organizations, football heroes, basketball players, and tennis champions. Yesterdays are easily forgotten, but never ours at East Carolina Teachers College. cE Alston Josephine Anderson Jarvis Anderson Allen Christine Alford Mary Al Margaret Banck Bf,tr, m Bateman Helen Barnhi [ 100} I. T was the f.-.ll of H)35. Sophomores were arriving at E. C. T. ( ' . for aiiotlier yoar full of activities. The woods gay and rustling made us think of gypsies, and thus we were reminded of the visit that Mar- garet Banek paid a well-known gypsy fortune-teller, Madame De Shazo, who liad lier tent just outside the city limits of Greenville. Margaret Banck, president of the class of 1938, visited this famous fortune-teller seeking a way to steer her class most suc- cessfully while she was in office. As she gazed into her crystal, Madame De Shazo fascinated Margaret with the predictions of the activities of her classmates during their sophomore year. Looking into her crystal the exotic seer paused in deep thought and slowly began this prophecy. As president of your class, you will prove to be a successful leader. Near you I see Mildred Edwards, the Vice-President of the Sophomore Class, assisting you in vour official duties. Clarice Barne Fannie Brewer Ida Mae Britt LoiTisE Britt [101] M.

With the help of the school officials and the officers of the stu- dent body, the new students rapidly adjusted themselves to college life. Parties, teas, mass meetings, and registration, together with getting acquainted with one another, occupied the first few days. The Freshmen ' s stay on the campus this year has been extremely happy. The upper classmen have displayed genuine college spirit in the clubs and organizations. The Junior-Freshman party is an event that every Freshman will remember. The Y. W. C. A. members, the Emersons, Laniers, and Poes have done all in their power to make the Freshmen ' s new home a congenial one. Due to the brief time that the Freshmen have been together as a class, there has been very little history. However, the Freshmen are grateful for this opportunity to thank all those who have so graciously helped make worthwhile and memorable this first year of their college life.

Sinee the group was made up of the members of the Senior Normal class, naturally the subject got around to the class itself. Tiiose girls certainly seem to be satisfied with their own class.

Elizaheth Morris, anotiier of the Morris girls from Windsor, seems to have proved quite ])0])ular during lu ' r stay on the campus. She was Vice-President of the Poe Society. You siiould hear Hez tell about the history relationship of her family and the school.

Sara Lee Yates is another of the Teco Echo girls. She is on the circulation staff. How could anyone ever think of Sara Lee without remembering Doris Quinn. ' Tlicy are like me and my shadow.

A A Lillian Wariien President Ann Richardson I ice-President Helen Harding Secretary Irene Williamson reastirer Ot II HE importance of recording this class history for future reference is made clear to us because of the difficulty we have in recalling the past. We look backward on what has been accomplished and forward with hopes, plans, and aspirations for the future. It seems but a short while since we were the typical inexperienced Freshmen whose task was finding our place and keeping out of the way of the upper classmen. We knew our time for leadership would come and the best preparation would be to listen and learn, in short, to follow. After a week of initiation, that looked forward to, dreaded, and long remembered time, we were well represented in school organizations. From then on we moved a little nearer the front and were intrusted with more important tasks. As we look back we realize that this was preparation for years that are to come and that it will encourage us in the present and inspire us in the future.

A team, proved capable by consistent greatness, played inspired foot- ball at times. There were stars who, although they could not win games alone, showed that talent was not lacking. A deceptive aerial attack, which culminated in the intricate Flying Trapese play, coupled with brilliant running and blocking, made it possible for the 1935 Pirates to combat successfully heavier and more powerful teams. With the Wingate game the lone exception, the E. C. T. C. team displayed a figthing spirit of which any college may be truly proud. In the remaining games, however, the snap and spark of life drove the team, if not always to victory, at least to success. When Oak Ridge came to Greenville, the Cadets did not expect to encounter the twisting, fight- ing team which barely missed winning in the final seconds of the game. The first win came at the expense of Chowan College, and was followed by another victory from the highly rated Norfolk Branch of William and Mary team. Against A. S. T. C. the Pirates led the Mountaineers at the half and fought gamely to lose a splendid game. The following Tuesday E. C. T. C. won the last scheduled game from Louisburg College.

During most of the game there was a continual exchange of punts. In the last few minutes Gibson carried the ball a gain of 50 yards, the longest run of the game. The defensive work of the Pirates was sujjerb ; however, they were weak on offense. Booster I.ixdsav E. C. T. C. ' S. OAK RIDGE Considered a nnieii stronger team tlian tiie Pirates, the Oak Ridge Cadets were able to win by only a small margin, (i to 2. Both scores were made in the final quarter. Cadet Smathers intercepted a Teacher ' s pass on the 50-yard line and ran for the touchdown. The Teachers ' two lioints came on a safety when Stowe attempted to pass to Lindsey. Brinkley downed the ball behind the goal posts. The Teachers ' first half ])lay was marked by strong defensive, led by Jimmy .loliiison. tackle, who was in almost every play.

Pirates shatt ered the hopes of the Norfolk Division of William and Mary-V. P. I. team of a perfect season, winning by 10 to 6.

A lateral from Stowe to Gibson scored on the fourth try. The Braves came pounding back and inaugurated an 88-yard march, topped with a 40-yard gallop to score. Halfback Cunn-ngham boomed a long punt that fell on the Division it yard line. A bad pass from center was downed in tlie end zone to give tiie :ites the first safety.

The Pirates made the first scoring advance with ground plays, but in the second a pair of passes set the stage for Ciibson via line plunges. Clarence Cunningham John Kapelic Lester Ridenhour [153] BOYS ' BASKETBALL JE, C. T. C. Piratts opened their basket- ball campaign by meeting the Panthers of High Point College. During the first half the Pirates held the Panthers to 13 points while they were collecting 10. How- ever in the second half the Panthers turned on the steam to gain a victory of 4.5 to 23. In a .second game with High Point Panthers tl;c Teachers again halted and suffered a defeat of K) to 3-. ' . The Pirates had better luck in the game with Rocky Mount.

T. C. seemingly walked to a victory of 54 to 15. Tliis was jierhaps the most easily won game of the season. Falling into the hands of the Pirates in a second game, tile Trojans were bested 49 to 31. With victory on their minds, the Pirates met the Oak Ridge Cagers. Both teams displayed excellent teamwork, but the Cagers were losers to the Teachers, 45 to 39. Ending the season with a victory of 54 to 35 over the quint of the Norfolk Division of William and Mary, the Teachers realized their success had been meas- ured by twelve victories of the sixteen games played. BASEBALL NOTES ITH tlif resignation of Coach Mathis at the end of the basketball season, the Teachers ' baseball club fell under the leader- ship of Bo Farley. Farley, a three-letter athlete at Duke, former director of Athletics at Danville High School, Manager of Green- ville Baseball Club in summer, 1935, present director of Atliltti School, has, as basel been most successful hard-hitting players.

Hinton, and Hassell collecting two hits each, Stowe scoring two runs and F. Hinson, Hassell, and Ayers one run each, the E. C. T. C. Club emerged with a 5 to 3 victory In the second game of this series, played at New Bern, the Panthers bested the Teachers by 6 to 4 in a game marked by clumsy playing. ; On April 17, the Teachers left on their first base- ball tour of the season. With their chins up, they met Ithe Apprentices of the Naval Apprentice School. In a game in which each team was equally matched, lack of time forced the game to be a 2 to 2 draw. Next day the Braves of William and Mary capit- ulated after a battle of two and one-half hours. This was a game met with little resistance and one in which F. Hinton hit the first home run of the season for the Teachers. Holland displayed splendid pitching al- HvATT Forrest [156] lowing only five hits; whereas, the Teachers made 13 hits. With the exception of one player, every participating player for the Teachers scored one or more runs enabling them to run up a score of 12 to 4. As the Tecoan goes to press, the E. C. T. C. Club is leaving on a five-game series of which they will play one game each with P. J. C, Guilford, Oak Ridge, and two with High Point. Already the Teachers are ahead of last season and Manager Hyatt Forrest predicts an even better record by the close of the season.

Tlu- minstrel siiow was so successful that the hoys decided to orga- nize a Varsity Cluh and make the minstrel an annual event. Theo Eason was made President of the Cluh with Frank Jennings Vice-President, and Jimmie Carr was elected to the position of secretary — a jiosition whicli he has held throughout the life of the Club. At that time there were only fifteen m.-mlurs in the Club. In its three years of existence it has more than doubled its uunhership. Under the direc- tion of Jimmie Johnson as President and Lester Ridenhour as Vice-President, the Club sponsored its third minstrel show and also a ' arsity Club dance this year. GIKLS ' ATHLETICS H LrciLLE Norton SEASONS RESUME . IXCE sports were first introduced in our college, basketball has been the only inter-collegiate sport for girls. Basketball was played M ' ithin the walls for a number of years. This brought about a sense of fair play and gave the students some idea of defeat and victory. As the college received outside recognition in other fields, thei-e was a desire to be equally recognized in the one sport. For many years they were bested by their opponents, but this did not cause them to give up. They used these defeats as stepping-stones for later victories. Under the leadership of Dr. A. D. Frank they began to realize many more victories than defeats. This year the new coach, Lucille Norton, has taken those who were already proficient on the squad, added new material, and turned out another winning WOMAN ' S ATHLETIC T . . JL HK W. A.

In the early days of the college the Tiianksgiving liaskctiiall game was the main sport of the year. This year the main aim of the Association was the rebuilding of [160] ASSOCIATION the Intramural system. In striving to reach tills goal they were successful. Students were invited to participate in any of the following sports: basketball, tennis, horse- shoe, croquet, archery, Softball, tahle-tennis, or hiking.

TVSON until this year the girls ' basketball team liarl litcn under the able coaching of Dr. A. n. Frank, head of the History De- partment. When Dr. Frank became coach, he had many problems to face; getting equipment, building up his basketball ma- terial, securing recognition among basket- ball teams of other Women Colleges, etc. Diligently he ;ind his teams worked and obtained all tliat they strived for. In the years following his teams were almost un- conquerable. When Coach Norton lieeame a mem- ber of the E. C. T. C. faculty, she, too, had problems. Last year ' s graduation classes claimed many of the most outstand- ing players. So she took the old material left, added new, and turned out teams that lc were equally as good as those before. In fact, her freshmen players were high scorers in nearly every game. JK.  . . 1. L. is pr athletes and looks to them to keep the name of tlic college, in that field, on top. Tlie Ramblers ])layed their first game of the season against Mitchell Junior College. Even though three players of the first lineup were Freshmen, all scoring was done by them. Every mem- ber of the squad, however, aided in turning in fine team performance. Their reward was a victory of 36 to 24. Ne.xt the Ramblers put on a scoring parade to roll up an 85 to 10 win over the Carolina Beauty College f Sextet. Speedy action, quick thinking, and superior play- ing otherwise were responsible for the Rambl easily walked-away-with victory. Again, in a second game with tlie Beauty School, the Ramblers won overwhelmingly — running up an easy score of 77 to 13. Eliz. beth Kkith, Manage Still proving their excellent playing ability, the Ramblers again forged to the front for another victory. This time the victim was Wingate Junior College, suffer- ing a defeat of 42 to 13. The excellent floor work of the guards coupled with the stellar work of the forwards, opened the path to the goal for the E. C. T. C. players. The Ramblers and Wingate Sextet ended the first half of the second game with a tie, 8 to 8. In the third quarter each team scored eight points. However, when tlie last quarter ended, the Ramblers were triumphant and brought home a score of 28 to 16.

When the Ramblers met the Charleston girls, the game was almost breath-taking. Neither team had been defeated, so here was the chance for one of the two ttams to prove their superiority. After hard playing and excellent teamwork on the part of both teams, the Ramblers hailed ahead with a victory of 37 to 2(i. Helen Wilson. Manager RlTH Parker. Assistant Manager M,iRjoRiE Smiths T.

Martin Croquet and Horseshoe INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS jL N order to give more students a better clianee to become proficient in a greater variety of sports, the Woman ' s Athletic Association revived and revised the Intra- mural program, introducing a new point system. Any student, except members of the Varsity team in that particular sport, may participate in any of the various sports: basketliall. tennis, horseshoe, croquet, archery, Softball, and hiking. It is the chief objective of such a program to create among the students a sense of fair play, loyalty, sacrifice, respect, cooperation, and sportsmanship. Not onlj- does a student receive these immaterial rewards, but also material ones — College Mono- grams. Already the results have been a realization of a greater feeling of unity within the student body as a whole. [ 16-5] Ellen Jenkins ' dent of Student Giiv Association JL HE first system of Student Govern- ment was inaugurated in November, 1920. with the idea of promoting a sense of personal responsibility in the students of the college. In the fifteen years of the development of the Association, it has evolved into a more worthy and efficient organi- zation by continually setting up higher campus standards. The aim of Student Gov- ernment is to develop student honor and self-control; to direct matters concerning college life, not reserved to the jurisdiction of the faculty; to encourage right ideals and promote a sense of personal responsibility in the students of the college ; to keep in sympathetic touch and to cooperate with the Student Government movements. This we have done by affiliating ourselves with the various student associations, be- coming a member of the Southern Inter-Collegiate Association of Student Govern- ment in 1928, and the National Student Federation of America in 1930. As for this year, the Student Government has tried not only to uphold the ideals expressed in its beginning, but to improve the internal organization of the council. [165] Effie Lef, WaTSO!

Although the Asso- ciation is still in its infancy, it lias gone far in substantially establishing a nucleus of men students here. Late in 1931. the imjiraeticability of having only our student governing system over both boys and girls was realized. With the thought in mind of working with the college administration and facilitating a larger enrollment of men here, plans for organization were instigated. William Wright took over the leadership in drafting a constitution. With its completion, Baxter Ridenhour was elected first President, and although the original council functioned little immediately following its installa- tion, the foundation was laid for future activitv. [168] WiLLARD, Babeow, Cahr, Dowd, Tyson, Stowe. Robtrt Dowd was elected early in 1935 to finish Ridenhour ' s term of office, and during the following months, the council proved decisively its ability to handle dis- cipline cases, as well as to take a leading part in student affairs. The council was instrumental in getting rooming quarters on the campus for the boys. This year, with Durward Stowe as President, the chief purpose of the Men ' s Council has been twofold. The Councilors have been particularly interested in gain- ing recognition for the boys, and of advancing the heretofore popularly latent fact that this is a co-educational institution. Secondly, the council has tried to form the foundation for a large enrollment of men students here in the future. We feel that the Men ' s Association has realized its purpose in a large measure. Hattie Pearl Mallard President of Young Women ' Christian Association II HE Young Women ' s Cliristian Asso- ciation of East Carolina Teachers College is the oldest organization on the campus, being organized the first year the college was opened in 1909 and joining the Na- tional Association at the same time. Since its organization much has been done toward ])romoting high ideals among the students. Each Friday and Sunday evening, vesper services are held under the auspices of the Y. W. C. . . Tiie subjects for these meetings have varied from time to time. Local and out-of-town speakers have been brought to the services. Out-of-town guests have included deputation teams from Carolina and N. C. State. One of the most outstanding speakers of this year was Mrs. Hazen Smith, Assistant Dean of Women at Duke University. The Chairman of the Religious Education Committee, Catherine Wallace, has had as her duties the making of contact with speakers, while to herald the coming of each event. Ruth Wise has served as Publicitv Chairman. [ 170] The services of the Young Women ' s Christian Association do not stop with vesper services. Each morning, Monday through Saturday, Morning Watch is con- ducted. During this year. Ester Mae Dennis has been leader of this. The college, local, and state papers print reports of the Y. W. C. A. meetings. These accounts have been written by the Cabinet Reporter, Elizabeth Copeland. Other committee chairmen are: Nola Walters, Music; .hianita Davis, Social Service; Margaret Martin, Social; and Callie Charlton, World Fellowship. Ellen Jenkins is Student Government Representative on the cabinet. The Association has as its four major officers, Hattie Pearl Mallard, President; Jean Thomas, Vice-President; Ida Kay Hair, Secretary; and Margaret Norman, Treasurer.

Appropriations are made for the support of both from the Student Fund. They are edited by separate staffs of students elected from the student body and advisors selected from the faculty. The past workers on the publications have passed on to us enthusiasm and their vision of bigger and better Tecoans and Teco Echos. We in turn have tried to add something of value to the contributions of our predecessors. Our work has been an endless pleasure and well worth the time and trouble which it has cost us.

[ 176 ] WITH THE JOURNALISTS I N developing; this foiirtccntli volume of the Tecoan, ours has been the problem of portraying vividly and yet eonseientiously a cross section of life at E. C. T. C. We have changed our course from that laid out by the staffs who have gone before us, in endeavoring to present the material, which shall be a tangible part of our schooling, in a new and different light. Information for our friends who are not connected with the college and details that students may want to remember have been included in the writeups, which are relatively new to our annual. Various contests have been held throughout the year in order to increase to a greater degree the part which the students might take in the production of the book. The cooperation of the student body has been necessary and we are more than thank- ful that instead of being indifferent, in many instances they have been as enthusiastic as we. The work on the ' 9.30 Tecoan has been a distinct privilege to the staff who entertains the hope that their work will meet with approval. JL HE business staff has always had a most difficult job in obtaining advertisements to aid in the financial end of an annual. This year they increased their task even more by endeavoring to make a larger and more pleas- ing advertising section. By adding pictures they have made it more attractive and inter- esting. By sponsoring a contest for the stu- dent,s and merchants, they have made it larger and more profitable. Jimmie Cullens. Beatrice Hammond, and Marion Wood, under the leadership of Rachel Stone have done a good piece of work. Rachel Stone Bushiess Manager Tecoan jNIrs. G. W. Gorham [178] j Iks. G. W.

In editorializing, the purpose has been fourfold: ( 1 ) to voice prevalent sentiments, (2) to offer constructive criticism, (3) to compliment, (i) to comment. We trust that we have at least maintained the pace set by former staffs. If we have hastened that pace a bit, we are confident that incoming staffs will do likewise. One of the most commendable achievements on the campus during the year is the harmonious relationship that has been established between the newspaper and the annual staffs. May we hope that we leave to the staffs of future j-ears a similar ability to cooperate. Business Staff Josephine Ranes Business Manager Cynthia Etheridge...

The inter-society committee chose the names of Poe and Lanier to fall to tlie two societies A and B by lot. The n ame Edgar Allan Poe fell to tiie A Society, and has since become an object of the affectionate loyalty of its members. In 1913 tlie first inter-society debate was held. The Poes won by upholding Moman suffrage. The Poe Society has always been active in making and upholding the liigh ideals which lend their influence to the lives of those who go forth to serve.
