I also want to express to the staff of the East Carolinian, the Student Gov- ernment Association, the student body, to the faculty and staff and all others connected with the College my sincere appreciation for the cooperative job that is being done to make East Caro- lina College a happy institution where splendid living and high intellectual attainments are motivated. I trust that at the beginning of this new year resolutions will be such as to cause even greater endeavor on the part of everyone to see that a higher standard of scholarship is main- tained. I can hardly imagine more marvelous espirit de corps so far as the compatibility of the campus group is concerned, and I do trust that every one may have an objective before him which will motivate his best efforts and cause him to hold fast to those ideals which will fit him for a high plane of service both now and after he has completed college. Again, may I wish for each of you the greatest possible happiness and success in 1956. J. D.

The highlight of the dance this year will be the crowning of “The Sweet- heart of Phi Sigma Pi,” who will be chosen from the sponsors selected by the various dorms before the dance. The dance will be semi-formal. “Blithe Spirit” The East Carolina Piayhouse will again present another Playhouse pro- duction here on the campus in the McGinnis Auditorium on February 8, 9, and 10. It will be “Blithe Spirit” by Noel Coward. Starring in the pro- duction will be Jim Corum who plays the part of Charles Condonine, a successful novelist, and Genia True- love, who plays the part of the au- thor’s second wife. The Playhouse members are working tremendously hard on this production in order to make it an overwhelming success; therefore, we certainly hope that all students will make a definite point to go. It will not only be very worth- while entertainment to students (and the faculty as well), but everyone will be definitely supporting a cam- pus activity which is given for their benefit. p-m. the = ar fr in Ball| ‘Campus Calendar mi THURSDAY everyone with at least half 1:00-5:00 “ted ae le ybably knows all of the details of t Magic “Déq .

THE CROW’S NEST by Billy Arnold The Pirates’ 105-69 routing of Elon last Saturday night rolled the Me- morial Gymnasium victory skein to 42, an amazing record that is prob- ably unequaled anywhere. Coach Howard Porter’s crew will be out for umber 48 tonight against Guilford. For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the so-called East ‘Carolina “jinx,” here is a brief run- down of it: Four years ago, tne college erected Memorial Gymnasium in order to accommodate the rising} popularity of basketball here and because of the great need for a phy- sical education building. The opening of the building was a big event and an exhibition basketball contest be- tween the Pirates and the University of North Carolina was to celebrate the incident. Carolina pushed across a 13-poin! win, after battling a rug- ged quintet led by Sonny Russell, in the very first game: played there. The Bucs have never tasted defeat in a home meet since that dedication contest. This fact has come to be a kind of jinx to visiting teams, or so it would ‘seem, Last week’s match points this out.

The visiting Cru- saders were stunned early by the effective sharpshooting of Coach Howard Porter’s fighting cagers. Fresh from a victory over powerful Richmond, the visitor, started the game with visions of another victory; scoring outfits in the Southeast and shared a first place spot with ECC in the North State Conference rank- ings. The outcome of the fray is well known by now. The locals completely dominated the action and passed the century mark with a handful of re- serves doing much of Coach Porter’s most effective work. Coach Ray Martinez’s swimmers have done wl ‘this season agains! some of the top competition in tne South and have already bettered last year’s record. The fact that the ECC Poolsters have been able to defeat such power‘ul squads as Davidson (twice), Wofford and William and Mary early in the campaign and turn in fine performances against N. C. State, is proof that the Pirates aren’t to be taken lightly. Saturday’s meet with the Clemson team that beat them earlier in the season, should be one of the real matches of the schedule. Coach Mar- tinez has great respect for the South Carolina swimmers, but has stated that the Bues have a chance to upset the favorites. The event will take} place in Memorial Gym and a large! crowd is expected. howcver, the shattered these hopes. Deadly accuracy from the outside and superb foul shooting gained the margin of victory for the Purple and Gold of East Carolina. The starting five, Don Harris, Guy Mendenhall, Freddie James, Nick Nichols, and J. C. Thomas, all hit for double fig- ures. Harris tied for high scorer for Bues soon the night with che Crusaders’ flasay guard Roger Marvel. WHAT'S THIS? For solution, see paragraph below. CAUTION—SLIPPERY DROODLE ABOVE.
