Winter Enrollment
Drops Ten Per Cent
Eight hundred eighty-six students
enrolled for this quarter on registra-
tion day, January 4. Of this num-
ber twenty-eight are entering ECTC
for the first time.
There were nine hundred fifty-
three enrolled for the winter quarter
of 1943. The present enrollment
represents a drop of less than ten
per cent below that of the correspond-
ing quarter a year ago.
"This is the normal drop that we
would expect stated Dr. Howard J.
McCinnis, registrar.
The number of men students this
quarter changed but little from the
number here in the fall. There were
forty-nine registered for the fall
quarter; now there are forty-eight

Jane Eyre is the romantic and
tragic story of the love of a man and
a woman pitter against the stormy
background of life. Since it was first
published as a novel back in the I
nineteenth century, it has become a
favorite and has never failed to
arouse the deepest emotions of the
readers of the English classics.
"The Chi Pi players hope to make
their presentation as handsome as
possible, with impressive scenic ef-

Those freshmen who made the
whole thing possible and those who
took part in the figure with the guest
class leaders were the following
freshmen: John Charlton, president;
Bat Peebles, vice-president; Cathe-

No definite central theme had been
chosen for decorating the gymnasium,
but arches covered with pink and

President Charlton expressed his
appreciation of the fine cooperation
he received in sponsoring the dance.

The Poster bureau, organized by

The bureau is composed of the fol-

It was organized to standardize the

Members of the bureau must charge
set prices of forty, sixty or eighty
cents, depending on the size of the
posters, for each one made. All pos-
ters must be subscribed for through
the bureau. The bureau furnishes its
own materials.

received, if you get your mail on the
campus of ECTC.
During the week of December 5-11,
inclusive � seven days � fifteen
thousand three hundred eighty-two
(15,382) different pieces of mail
passed through the College Exchange.
That is enough to fill about thirty-
five standard mail sacks and it is
some load for the postman who lugs
it in from his truck, often through a
milling group of students and faculty
to the Exchange room, or vice versa.
Broken down, these figures shape
up this way:
Incoming mail�First Class (letters
from John, Bob, and Mom)�6,311
Second Class (the home paper,
etc.)�S83
Fourth Class (that box candy, etc)
�311
Drop Mail (notices of Important
class meetings, etc.)�1,635.
That is a total of 9,140 pieces to be
put in your boxes or handed to you
personally with a smile, for which
you are kind enough to reciprocate,
we hope.
Fifty-seven of those 311 packages
were insured and had to be signed
for on the dotted line.
The story of outgoing mail is
short, but it made up a sizeable pile,
namely, 6,216 pieces of First Class
(billet deaux of sweet nothings, af-
fection and business) and 26 pack-
ages of this, that, and the other, for
a total of 6,242 pieces.
Now, let's break it all down some
more. The average number of pieces
handled each day in the College Ex-
change was 2,053. Sunday was a
light day with only 1,250 pieces to be
handled. Saturday was the big day
with 2,565 pieces passing through
the office. But Wednesday with
2,497 and Thursday with 2,467 were
not far behind.
Sunday and Monday were the only
days when fewer than 2,000 pieces
were handled by the Exchange
lassies.
You will notice that the First Class
mail�incoming 6,311 pieces and out-
going 6,216 pieces�makes up the
larger part, as would be expected, or

Students' Carelessness Encourages
Deterioration OF Equipment
When the new constitution was put in-
to effect, one of the changes which it
brought about was in the entertainment and
soc i a 1 committees. Correspondingly a
change occurred in methods used to carry on
:ing program in the Wright building
the we k and on Saturday
nights when there wasn't a scheduled enter-
tainment. En the past this situation has
. handled very efficiently by the hiring
( f at least me person, and at times two, to
haw charge of playing the records and the
imr care of both the records and the
hine. This system was ideal in that only
or two responsible persons ever had the
key or played the records, thus insuring bet-
care of the expensive record-player and
the s ec rds.
The designation of one or two people to
e s le charge of the equipment is an ab-
si lute necessity, not only for the care of the
records and the machine but also for full en-
tert linment value for the students. This
rd lesson has been proved this year to an
tenl which has been very destructive and
unsatisfacti ry. This year no one person has
en in charge of the dancing hours. Such
inefficiency has brought on the inevitably
unfortunal results. There are no new

diffi rent and careless hands. Records are
broken, misplaced, lost, and scratched with
careless and irresponsible handling.
The most regrettable factor is the
present condition of the record machine.
The laek of attending care it should receive
has brought on unnecessary deterioration.
dinarily such machines are valuable, but
v. they are doubly so because of the war-
tin e shortage. Record players such as this
ne cannot be replaced for years.
S me ni rhts after everyone else has left
the building the machine is left on. The dial
ng the 1 ne quality has been ren-
1 ly useless and the quality of
ne seriously impaired. Thus one can
r adily see that a remedy is needed immedi-
acy. The best suggestion for changing such
a situation is by designating one or two
people to have complete responsibility for
peri : s of dancing. But, to insure the
at of this plan, the sug-
� ' ment that

the basis of the self-help plan.
The writer does not wish to accuse any
one person or committee for allowing such
a situation to arise and grow into the prob-
;t now is. It is one of those things
which have happened because of the lack of
ht f all who have worked together

cousi iuu ion.
Since the responsible group of the cam-

deem it the duty of that group to alleviate
this unfortunate situation with better or-

whom they shall vest the powers of office to
lead the activities of the campus. Prime
among these officers is the president of the
Student Cooperative council. The past can
boast of good leaders and it is up to the
present student body to see that this tradi-
ti nal factor is not lost.
To be a vital and effective organiza-
tion, it is necessary that the student council
have as its head a person who is fully capable
of handling the responsbilities involved.
The jerson who is elected to this posi-
tion should, it seems, be one who inspires
respect from his fellow students, one whom
they will accept as a leader and with whom
they will cooperate willingly.
Independence and dependability are
vitally needed by a student council president.
These two characteristics are especially de-
sirable when this officer is required to face
personally an emergency as well as when he
is performing his regular duties.
Frequently a student president of the
executive council is faced with the problem
of passing judgment on the suggestions
made by some person in authority. To do
so wisely, thereby preserving the spirit of
democratic living, is an essential responsi-
bility of the student president.
Such situations require a person with a
sane perspective, sound judgment and un-
biased viewpoints in order to safeguard
freedom of thought, speech and action in a
world which is now struggling to decide
whether a dictatorship or a democracy shall
reign supreme.
Athletes Need Hearty
Cheers To Win
It may seem elementary to the sophisti-
cated readers of a college newspaper to men-
tion the subject of school spirit in connection
with support of the athletic programs of-
fered to all students who wish to participate.
However, something needs to be said about
the poor attendance at the college athletic
contests.
Through an intramural program, thehe
is much to be derived from entering into the
spirit of keen, but friendly, rivalry between
the teams on the campus.
Thus far this quarter there have been
played about a half-dozen games and the at-
n c c a 1 . - : . all -t mi 1
low. Such acti ities, though one enters in-
to them only as a spectator, carry with them
as many factors of good education as one
can get in the classroom.
Come on. students, support these
athletic events! The players need your
morale-building cheers.

A War On!

"Good-morning comes a cheery voice
from a uniform standing outside the dorm-

that the day is Sunday and the fortunate

Miss College arises, wanders over to break-
fast to sit down to a meal that really em-
phasizes the fact that somewhere there is a
war being fought. That means no bacon,

and after scraping her plate because of the
shortage-of-labor situation, Miss C. goes
back to her room to dress for church. As
she takes down her new suit, she holds it up

Miss College completes her primping,
attends church and returns to spend the
afternoon building up the morale of some
homesick marine. Then it's back in the
dorm to term papers, jam sessions, etc.
Monday, the same old cycle is lived
through�breakfast, hurried preparation for
her first period class where she studies the
war in relation to history. In the afternoon
Miss College spends whatever spare time
the teachers allow her with knitting a sweat-
er for an unfortunate soldier�in this case,
unfortunate, because it is her first bit of
handicraft. Evening comes and the patri-
otic little college girl dons a white gauze
over her hair and proceeds down to the Red
Cross Room to roll bandages to help the
cause. After doing her patriotic duty for a
good half hour she goes over to the Campus
building to dance, and again is reminded of
the war. She notices a boy�and how
scarce they are!�with a crowd of girls
standing around watching him as if he were
some valuable museum piece. Tearing
through the crowd, Miss College bravely
breaks on him.
"Are you going home next week-end?"
he asks her, as they take a few seps be-
tween breaks.
"No, Dad won't come after me because
of the gas and tire shortages and the buses
are so irregular nowadays that I'm afraid I
won't get back on time if I stay any while
at all, so I guess I won't go she replies
sadly, as another girl cuts in on her.
Dancing is over and it is off to her
dorm room to study�this time about the
changing geographical conditions brought on
by a war-torn world.
This done Miss College throws down her
book with a sigh. "Oh. dear, I really would
like to shampoo my hair, but no bob-pins.
Oh, to have been born with curls With
the shampoo nipped in the bud, she prepares
for bed. After forcing the last bit of tooth-
paste from the tube, she lifts her arm to aim
for the waste-basket when her roommate
shouts, "Save that tube! We'll have to have
it to buy more toothpaste
"Why? Oh, yes, of course, how could I

With The Armed Forces
by Rosalie Brown
Here we go again folks with lots of
words from many of our boys since the last
issue of the paper. Lt. Jesse Gray writes
to Miss Graham of many interesting things
that have happened since he left the states.
He has been in South America, Africa, India
and is now in China. "I have visited the
Taj-Mahal one of the seven wonders of the
world, and man's greatest memorial to a
woman. "I have to say that was one of the
most beautiful and magnificent works of
architecture I've ever seen
"I like China very much better than
India. The people here are happier, and
have a few silly customs. Men, women,
boys and girls all walk around on the streets
as they do in the United States. They like
us very much and I honestly believe their
hospitality toward us, particularly pilots, is
unequaled anywhere else in the world. It is
almost unbelievable the things they will do
to aid us. I don't see how any people could
endure as much war as they have and be so
jolly and optimistic.
"I only wish the people at home could
see the war as we see it and maybe they
would quit celebrating an early victory and
continue to work hard.
"Japan is as strong as Germany ever
was and since they have every strategical
and valuable part of China, Burma, and the

when they send us our best planes. I am in
the 75th Fighter Sqd. which has one of
the best combat records of the U. S. A. F

9. The first week I was here this was really
a hot corner. The Japs came in to bomb us
and we would shoot them down. I have
hopped out of bed in the wee hours of the
night and dived inside trenches while they
dropped bombs. I have watched these
fights from the ground and in the air and
they look just like the movies until a zero
gets on your tail and starts shooting. It is
very thrilling, though. On my second mis-

Dave Owen's powerful armada
boiled over with energy Wednesday
night. January 19, and completely
routed Beverly Cutler's Little Bom-
bardiers, who must have been "up-
stairs" while the game was under-
way. Taking a very early lead, and
building up a wide margin, the con-
test was merely a practice session for
Owens and his Sky-scrapers, piling
up a score of 77-16.
The first half ended with the score
43-4. The Midgets put on a rally in
the second half, especially in the
fourth period and ran up their score
a bit, but they were far out of range,
the game ending 77-16.
