Now I agree that it is fine to) i dance but when it becomes so/| involves the! i health of students on the cam-| abusive that it pus, then it seems to me that it is high time something should be done about it. It appears that in the spring the weather is so warm and the atmosphere so smooth that stu- | dents do not have the energy to dance. Yet they feel that there ;i8 so much hot music going to waste that they can’t afford to be extravagant by not dancing have to pay for the electricity that is used in running the vic- trola since they have been so kind in providing the music). For this reason the students feel | that they must dance, thereby resulting in complete physical wrecks of the majority of stu- dents on the campus. (That is, physical wrecks of the students for the remainder of the even- ing.) The truth of the matter is that the students have danced so much that they just don’t want to dance anymore and only do so because they feel it is ruin- ing their health. Then there is another consi- deration to be thought about. Students frequently have spring fever during the last term and are too much in love to want to dance with other males than the one with which they are en- gaged at the present time. The majority agree that it is much immediate at-!

Students are famil- iar with the sight of Dr. Baughan absent-minrly pulling small] bot- tles of essence from his pockets and sniffing them with an in- tent “Ferdinandy” look upon his face. Dr. Baughan, A. B., M. A. Ph. D., B.S. V. P., P D Q., states that the sweeter the perfume is the more delightful he finds it.

Thousands who were watch- ing Dr. Bridgerglouch were horrified when thé ice cracked and he sank from their frozen view. “Chief”? Williams came to the rescue at once by diving in- to the lake head first. He was dazed a bit at first by the ice. but he still had the presents of mind enough to pull Dr. Bridgerslouch out by his feet as his head was stuck in the mud. This was a very ‘angerous thing as Dr. Bria,_cslouch was wildly thrash- ing his sharp skates, churning the pool, frightening the goldfish and cracking all the ice in the pond. The thousands (or at least two or three hundred) cheered as the Chief finally pulled the un- conscious doctor from the water. Helen Flanagan, who at pre- sent is seriously studying Shakesspear’s immortal “Roma- nor and Juliet”, will present the medal because she survived the same harrowing experience last January. She rescued her- self. and was rewarded the same medal for such heroism. Pr.

A scout spotted Miss Feild’s performance in “Sanitorium.” the winner of the three one-act play contest spon- sored by the local literary socie- ties. She was chosen by M-G-M to play the same role in the sereen version of the play. When interviewed Miss Feild said that she did not intend to leave for the west coast until the close of school because the production will not get under- way until the latter part of May. Her contract calls for a salary of $2500 for the first six weeks j and $3500 each week thereafter.

Jenkins | Demonstrates Jitterbug Styles Al Dittmer And His Utarian Swing Band Pleyed For Dances Last Tuesday night at the Wright building Miss Mamie | Jenkins, teacher of English, gave | a very beautiful rendition of the latest jitterbug styles. Miss Jen- kins has always been a wonder- fu dancer but feeling she would lose her dignity before her many pupils she has kept away from the waiting world her fast but gracious movements as a jitter- i bug. So for the benefit of the unlucky people who were unable to attend the exhibition the Peco | Heco will try to describe it for you. Al Dittmer standing in front of his famous “Utarian Swing Band” kept an eye on his boys and one eye on his much sought after torch singer Dean Tabor who was swinging and swaying in time with the fast music. It was too much for Miss Jenkins, who was sitting on the side lines; the music got in her blood; she slowlv rose and strutted out to the center of the floor. The boys gathered around her to be the luckly one to dance with the fa- mous dancer. She paid no at- tention to them but looked straight into the eyes of Dr. Flanagan. The spot light turn- ed upon the couple. The floor cleared, and the band struck up “In the Mood”. the couple strut- ted, trucked, diped, swayed, and twirled, a hundred and one ether steps of the modern jitterbug. They danced with a speed and ease that has never been seen before and never will be seen again in the world. Miss Jenkins’ masterful per- formance was rewarded by win- ning the title of “Queen Jitter- bur.” While in Europe Miss Jenkins was competing for world cha- pionshin in figure skating a- gainst the inferior Sonja Henia but realizing she would ruin the dreams of the young girls, she gave up the idea and returned to H.C. 5. C. Sallie Davis Declares Students Are Too Quiet “T’ve been a member of the faculty of East Carolina Teach- ers College for more than 30 vears and the students have been entirely too quiet. It is time they were making them- selves heard a little more,” de- clared Miss Sallie Joyner Davis in Vespers last Sunday night. “There is entirely too much silence in the halls,” she con- tinued. ‘When classes are in session you can hear a pin drop in the halls and such a situation should never prevail when others are in the classrooms try- ing to learn something.” She explained that in the next mass meeting she planned to present a petition, signed by every member of the faculty, to urge all students to make more noise around the school. While Miss Davis went on record as favoring more noise in the halls, she declared em- phatically that no _ cheering should prevail at athletics events. particular between East Caro- lina Teachers College and Atlan- tic Christian College. ‘“‘Noise at a ball game gets on my nerves and keeps me from following the game,” she concluded. i he Alum: one of th beth Cit visit witl ns, teache: ed Elizab , teacher i ducted Y hnett, Pres hi Associt achers Col + County , many for m the cam yp Dedic: m page on Meadows * and will pr: h will be s will be f the alw momics de] a tea in he during t pram will ¢ ne and the hittee Men pe Homrecon Mrs. Bloxt s Departi working wi lumni on Velma J lumnae da ping with +] m; and Mr pnged for tl b the dance. mi, and a fe ted to the is being se) ory addres: ag to prepar ternoon a t w building mvited to « building. ts Assistin ip of the stu cooperation lebration C be even n out, especia p be held Shelton an: rry the na’ d twenty-f ir Miss Edi nd to help t their wor sen by their the proce: ning.
