Originally a community enterprise, the group had an enrollment of thirty boys. Attracting attention almost at the beginning, they were soon appearing on local and then national radio programs. In 1943 they made their first metropolitan appearance at Town Hall in New York.

The Choral Union, directed by Gordon Johnson of the EC De- Partment of Music, is a new choral organization on campus comprised of all the students in the Music Department with the help of stu- dents in other departments. The Sunday concert will be ac- companied by the EC College Or- chestra, under the direction of Donald Hayes, of the Music De- partment faeulty. Following “The Organ Sym- phony”, by Saint-Saens, performed by the Orchestra, the Choir will present Vittorio Giannini’s “A Can- ticle of Christmas”, based on the Gospel according to St. Luke. Page Shaw, EXC student, will be featured as baritone soloist. The Women’s and Men’s Glee Clb will assist the Choir on the final chorus, along with audience participation. E.

They were so well received that they were asked to return for another seven week engagement the following winter. Among the Boychoir mem- bers who have kecome famous for their individual talents is Chet Allen who received a con- tract with a major film com- pany as a result of his lead role in the original performance of Gian - Carlo Menotti’s “Amahl and the Night Vis- : tors.” In speaking of the choir Mr. Menotti said, “I strongly feel that just as Austria is proud of its Vienna Boys Choir, and France of the Petits Chanteurs a !a Croix de Bois, America should be proud of the Columbus Boychoir, which is equally as good as any of these organizations, if not better.” Concert elujah,Chorus’ LLE VOGEL “The achievable result can be a mighty web of sound in which the audience feels itself an inte- gral part”, stated one enthusiastic listener. This is the third performance in recent years of a major work by Giannini. In 1959 the Orchestra presented his “Second Symphony” which was directed by the com- poser himself, The Choral group will also per- form the “Hallelujah” chorus ¢rom “Mount of Olives” by Beethoven. This number will also be accom- panied by the Orchestra. Mr. Johnson said that Handel’s “Messiah” hes traditionally been the selection performed at this time of the year, This year marks the tenarture from this tradition, with the performance of a contemporary choral work.” He explained, “There are many choral works dealing with Christ- mas themres which deserve hearing. With this in mind the ‘Messiah’ will be performed once every four years, giving performers and stu- idents a chance to hear or sing it.” EAST CAROLINIAN Se [i__ i nmmen iee, aee IFC Rush Procedure Draws Criticism The Interfraternity Council has sufficient reason wal disturbed .. . although there is no apparent unrest wit 2 bination fraternal group. bi aa = interested uninvolved critic there are a number of “bugs” in its operations ae ar of its mem- r fraternities that one could easy point out. ons: . yo fall quarter grades are out," bringing the —o sing news of pledge quality points, it would be wise to hesi- ate er the situation. ; ey api 50% of all fraternity pledges down ” in quality points after this first quarter?

(... mF nies of those .dges who have a C average are upperclassmen. : par rs to IFC rules, formal rush is conducted in a Fall Quarter. IFC not long ago, faultily voted down pemene rush in preference to a first quarter affair. The Cours! chose to rush freshmen only five weeks after they were first introduced to the campus. This seems to give rushees barely time to recognize Greek names . . . to Say nothing of looking over fraternities, becoming familiar with their members, watching them work together, and observing the general acceptance of particular fraternities by the cam- pus and the administration. i a : In five weeks a freshman is still orienting himself to the campus and to his studies, : ae Further examination of pledge grades brings attention to two variables. Fraternities pledging the most freshmen are the ones who have the largest percentage without a C average. Fact is, pledging is no easy task. . . but upper- classmen who pledge already have QP’s to cushion the fall while freshmen have to make their average first quarter. This is not to say that freshmen are poor risks .. . but dur- ing their first quarter here they have too many other ad- justments to make. The other variable leads us to a not so obvious con- clusion. But, could the largest percentages down in QP’s be indicative of the type pledge program executed by the fraternities? Some fraternities conduct study halls for their pledges .. . but this does not solve the problem. The emphasis in the pledge programs is non-academic aspects of campus life. The largest amount of the pledge’s time is wasted in degrading or laborous activities . . . neither of which prepare a pledge for brotherhood, nor help him in learning the secrets, founders, etc. of the fraternity. The type activity just described is immature and serves no constructive purpose. What is taught a pledge when he spends half the day in Greenville trying to find out why a firetruck is red, or who put the tar in Tar River? The IFC might do well to reconsider this premature rushing ... to give everyone time to think .. . to give fresh- men time to become adjusted and make their grades. And it also could refresh its member fraternities as to their purposes. iS) ‘Let’s-Get-Togetherness’ Prevails Poet incites New Form George Garrett, one of two young poets scheduled to visit the campus this year through the ‘Poetry Circuit”, presented his contemporary readings to a partially recep- tive audience Tuesday night. Reading his own work, Garrett informally christened a new form of let’s-get-togetherness for poets and poetry-| type audiences. : ' We welcomed this chance to sit in on the personal ail inner feelings of the man, Garrett. We agree with him on the “Come As You Are” sections of Abraham’s Knife, mak- Ing poems out of nothing ... and wonder if he didn’t end with what he started. But certainly the other two sections, especially Section Il, “Fig Leaves”, make ammends for the nothings of the nothing section. We applaude the “Circuit” responsible for Garrett’s of these poets.

Ellis of the office of Civil amd Defense Mob- lization describes the new en- thustam for fallout shelters as a nationwide “revival for survival.” If there is a nuclear attack, we must be prepared. We do not want | a war and we do not know if there will be a war. We do know how- ever, that forces unfriendly to us possess weapons that could destroy us if we are not ready. These weapons create a new threat—ra- dioactive fallout that can spread death anywhere. That is why we must prepare by building shelters. ‘A fallout shelter will not be needed except during an emergency. but during this time, the value will be priceless, > We must make an effort, no matter how slim the chances of survival, to save ourselves.

EAST CAROLINIAN Pirates Battle Lenoir Rhyne Tonight In Second Home Game) | Coach Earl Smith’s young cage Pirates ‘battle Lenoir Rhyne’s Bears tonight in Memorial Gym- masium. The Bucs have played but one home game thus far in the young campaign. Catawba’s In- dians defeated Coach Smith’s five by a 78-74 margin. But East Caro- lina put forth a gallant effort be- fore losing to The Citadel 85-73 in Charleston, South Carolina Satur- day night. Wednesday night the Bucs traveled to High Point and were defeated 88-64 in a contest with the Panther five. LR has one of the better teams in the strong Carolinas Conference and rolled over Guilford in their league opener by an impressive margin. The Bears are tall and EC anticipates a much closer encounter than the 30 point margin in which the Bucs won by last season in Memorial Gymnasium. EC showed tremendous improvement during The Citadel contest, and actually led the Cadets until the late stages of the game. East Carolina will depend on veteans Charlie Lewis, Ben Bowes, Lacy West, Dan Bowen, and Bill Gtte, along with freshmen Bill Rrogden and Richie Williams to lead the way. The latter has been the most inypressive in the young season, as he scored 22 points in the opening loss to Catawba. The freshman shoots equally well with either hand. Lewis could not seem to find the range in the opener, but poured 16 points through the nets against The Citadel.

He defeated Ron Crawley in the first round, Bill Warsham in the quarter finals, and Rick Brewer in the semi-finals. Dennis Creech defeated top seeded player Nelson Tugwell in the quarter finals.
