workshop.
"The purpose of this plan," he

ment workshop, McCurry pointed
out the importance of continued
interest in hih . schools.

should be continued, strengthened
and improved upon," he said.

ing debates and part in hearing
its members read compositions,
poems and essays that they them
selves had written, according to
the spokesman.

For Class
By ED MYERS
University Director of Admis
sions Roy Armstrong last night
Itold the pledge class of 1955 to put
"scholarship above everything
else."
Armstrong spoke at a banquet,
held in Lenoir Hall, which placed
the final touch on Greek Week.
In his speech to more than 420
pledges, Armstrong said, "I am
very proud of you, I commend you
on this type of initiation. You are
doing a positive and good thins."
The Sturm Memorial Cup for the
outstanding pledge class was
awarded to Beta Theta Pi Frater-.
nity on the bases of scholarship,
participation in Stunt Night and
Field Day and activities of the
pledge class as a whole. SAE was
judged second, Phi Kappa Sigma
and St. Anthony Hall tied for third
and fourth places, and DEKE and
Zeta Psi tied for fifth and sixth.
The Stunt Night award also went
to Beta Theta Phi. Phi Kappa Sig
ma was awarded the Field Day tro
phy. Armstrong said he was disap
pointed that the fraternities did
not have a higher scholastic aver
age than the rest of the student
body. "You should be tops on this
i campus," he said.
"Let's show everyone that you
are not interested primarily in
driving red and yellow converti

therhood and visiting Raleigh to
. put 'cuiture' into their agricul-
