What’s all this about Irma Hinnant and Big John Charlton? The Love Bug is a little early, isn’t it? Anne Thompson has been seen lately trying to persuade Layton Clark that Spring has already come and time’s a wastin’. More power to you, Anne. -apa Dick and Willie of the Fleming Hall visitors were seen wandering around Greenville Sunday night without a friend in the world. How can you do this to them, Inez and Doris? It’s all right to come to see that cute little lady in Fleming, Big John; but for heaven’s sake stop trying to stay for all the house meetings! “Sit” seems to be losing some of her charm lately. I don’t think Norman is making frequent visits to Fleming just be- cause he wants a bit of consolation. Gar- nite wouldn't be that good to anybody. Will some of you kind people who read this column suggest to Bill Lee some way to get a date on this campus without having to visit every dormitory at least twice? As yet, Reecie, Dot Peebles and Maddrey have not had a fight over him.

Garlan Bailey has been moving around quite a bit lately from Maxwell Field, Ala., to Florida, to Vermont, to Ten- nessee and now back to Maxwell Field. He says the TECO ECHO is having a “helluva” time finding him. “It seems useless to send them close to five thousand miles when I am only a few blocks from the post office.” The girls here at school thought it was our job to keep up the morale of you boys, Garlan, but remarks like yours about the Yankee girls never being able to come up to par with the ECTC girls kinda boosters up ours. “Just between you and me they can’t dance either. While in Vermont I had a problem trying to convince them that the square dance had gone out of style. They thought the boys at Norwich Univer- sity were hot stuff—first men they had seen since the war started. Every weekend you could see the horses and wagons coming down from the surrounding mountains, bringing the Daisy Mae’s to our weekly dance. Some fun, got quite a kick out of it.” Usually in all the letters we get the boys are talking about how long it has been since they have seen a woman. Well, if this is any cold comfort to you fellows, it seems there are places still left where there are nothing but women! As for the situation here at ECTC, word has reached Garlan that the Marines have the situation well in hand. My! How news travels! I feel that any alumni will always get a warm welcome when they come back, regardless of the Marines. Pvt. Charles Craven is “in the middle of the desert” at Fort Sumner, New Mexico, working in the Air Force physical training program. Charles writes that the paper brizgs back many pleasant memories of ECTC. “That is a place you don’t forget easily. It would be the girls, I guess,” he says. Charles declares he enjoys all the paper, “even that Scumming column,” but he wants to know if we can’t stir up another hot question on the campus so he can keep in touch with what the moralists have to say these days.

The most outstanding, the 1944 color is purple; next year (Spring, 1945) purple will still be a Spring, 1944 color, a sore thumb in your wardrobe, a fly in your ointment; for the purple is a lovely color, it literally shouts, and mark my bolic Bs See Cie, I want to tell you how very much I ap- preciated the cooperation of the student body in helping to put across our broadcast last Monday.
