Griller String
Quartet Appears
Here January 26
The Griller String Quartet, now on
its ninth American tour, will appear
in concert at East Carolina College
Thursday, January 26, under the
sponsorship of the college Enter-
tainment Committee. James W. But-
ler, comma ttee chairman, has an-
nounced that the program will take
laee at 8:15 p.m. in the McGinnis
auditorium.
The quartet was founded at the
Royal Academy of Music in London,
where Sidney Griller, Jack O'Brien,
Philip Burton and Colin Hampton
met as students and formed the
ensemble, which became recognized
as the official quartet of the Acade-
my. On their graduation in 1928 they
decided to continue as a unit and to
accept no engagements as individual
performers.
They have given more than 2500
concerts in Europe, the British Isles,
Australia, New Zealand, the United
States, and Canada In 1939, they
came to the United States and made
a sensational debut in New York
and a transcontinental tour with sixty
recitals.
During World War II they enlisted
as a group in the Royal Air Force
and received the unprecedented des-
ignation of Official String Quartet
of the RjA.F. Until their release
from service in 1945 they gave hun-
dreds of concerts for all branches
of the armed forces, both British
and Allied.
Since 1948 they have taught and
served as quartet-in-residence at the
University of California in Berkeley,
with time out for concert tours.
The repertoire of the Griller Quar-
tet includes the whole range of string
quartet music from Haydn and Mo-
zart to the present, with a dozen or
more compositions especially written
for hem by contemporary composers.

The Committee Appointed to Study
and Evaluate the Cut System held
its initial meeting Monday of this
week. Dr. W. E. Marshall, chairman
of the committee, presided, but since
Dean Tucker was unable to be pres-
ort and Don Umstead (student rep-
re? ntative) was not present, the
? -mmit? ee did not begin any actual
work.
Dr. Marshall opened the session
and started the discussion by citing
veral cut systems used by differ-
ent American colleges. It was noted
that many schools of East Carolina'
size leave the problem of excusing
absences to the individual professors.
An excess number of cuts would be
reported to the dean and filed with
the student's permanent record. One
of the jood points about this system
is that it would eliminate compli-
cated mechanics such as the long
excused absentee lists. Several com-
mittee members, however, thought
that "his system would be too vari-
able, depending upon the professor.
Dr. Marshall favored a system used
by Clemson University which is based
on scholastic average and seniority.
For instance, a student with a four
average would be allowed one cut
lor each class, etc. Seniors would be
allowed optional attendance for a
grade average of one for en-
tire college work. Dr. Marshall
jointed out that he liked this system
because "it would induce higher scho-
lastic averages and because he had
found that cutting centered ma! 7y
around sophomores and freshmen
Dean White expressed her views
about the present system by saying
that the thought it would be fine if
it were handled in the right way. In
connection with Dr. Marshall's Clem-
son Proposal, she agreed that seniors
might be allow-ed more liberal cut-
ting. "However, L have found she
said, "that freshmen, especially first
are very careless of
etc Therefore, she thought
that one cut for each subject would
be plenty liberal for first-quarter
freshmen.
In discussing the present system,
the committee pointed out several
things that had received a great deal
of complaints. For instance, many
students think that a two hour class
meeting five times a week should
have more than two cuts. Others
think that a two-hour lab should
count only as one cut.
The committee studying the cut
system was appointed before Christ-
mas by the Policy Committee because
many think that the students are
taking advantage of themselves by
cutting when they really can't afford
to cut. Since only two persona are
appointed to represent the students,
the committee has asked the opinions
and comments of other students be-
fore a decision shall be reached.
The committee faces no deadline
for submission of proposed changes
or revisions of the present system
if they see fit to make revisions.

Mesiick Voices Appreciation
May I wish every reader a happy new year. 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 Cottage 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.

Strive Toward Goals
-Work without Hope draws nectar in a sieve,
And Hope without an object cannot live
?Coleridge
These famous lines have been pondered upon
many times by a number of people; however, they
could especially be applied to college students. Is
it not true that while we are in college that we
should accumulate knowledge and wisdom?not
for the benefit ?f a grade?but for the benefit of
ourselves in contributing to a more enlightened
society Do we not acquire the good and sweeter
things of life separated from the coarser things
by working without the expectation of gratifica-
tion except to our inner selves? However, this does
not mean that we should not have a hope of great-
er things to c me, a definite object in life, and a
desire to live our lives to their fullest extent.
Therefore, we should sight for ourselves while
we are in a definite goal or object and
strive while we are here to acquire an education
which will more readily prepare us to achieve
this goal.
, se who do not strive to meet a definite
goal m life often become discouraged and beaten
lor their lives are non-objective and therefore
they have nothing to hope or plan for in life.

are in college and lose
the desire to study, and
sometimes even the desire to live. This discourage
ment often leads to trouble in their later life,
i aeeoniing to psychologists often results in
ly deceasement. Therefore, in order to really

work hard toward a definite object, thus en-
ing ourselves to enjoy and obtain the fullest

the Christmas holidays. How do we
know? Well, the editors are calmly
shouting and tearing their hair once
more. In fact, one afternoon last
week, the newspaper office was the
scene of a playful sword fight?with
curtain rods. Also, recently a con-

source of the daily exercise of some

by Calvin Chesson and His Dreamers.
The highlight of the dance this year
will be the crowning of "The Sweet-

The East Carolina Playhouse will
again present another Playhouse pro-
duction here on the campus in the
McGinnis Auditorium on February 8,
9, and 10. It will be "BH?he Spirit"
by Noel Coward. Starring in the pro-
duction will be Jim Corum who plays
the part of Charles Condonine, a

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.

South are being greatly magnified, while N
era incidents of the same importance are s.

this case would have received if it had happ

(Facts for this article were taken from a
Southern newspaper.)
"What Will '56 Be Like"
By the time of this printing everyone will
have had time to make and break their New
Year's resolutions and will probably be wondering
what the new year will be like. Authorities can
pretty near predict the new year before it even
arrives. For instance, it is predicted that bush
will reach the 400 billion dollar mark, and nine
out of ten Americans will ask, "wonder who got
my share?"
Sex, it is predicted, will go on as usual, al-
though no unusual incidents such as the Kinscy
report are expected; however, no slump in it-s
widespread popularity is predicted.
The weather in 1956 should be about usual.
Gusts are expected around Chicago and San Fran-
cisco in the early part of the year and winds of
hurricane force should go blowing out of Wash-
ington, D. C. around November. These should
cease after November, however, and the rest of
the year should be pretty much as usual.

all by themselves, after having drop-

Davidson 48-34
For Fourth Win
East Carolina's swimming team
trounced Davidson's Wildcats before
a capacity crowd by the score of
48-34 Saturday for their fourth win
in six meets. The two losses came at
the hands of powerful Clemson and
N. C. State. Earlier this season, the
Pirates had beaten this same David-
son team; they proved in convincing
fashion that the previous victory was
no fluke.
Outstanding in the victory over
their visiting Southern Conference
i'oes were Harold McKee, Dickie Den-
ton, Ken Midgette, Bob Sawyer, Jack
Koc-bberling, Frank Moore, and Bon-
nie Rose. It was Bob Meads, the
freshman speed merchant, who start-
ed the Buc scoring burst which won
the meet by taking first place in the
100 yard freestyle event. Harold Mc-
Kee was high scorer for the .meet
as he took final place in the 220
yard and 440 yard freestyle events.
Thanks to the winning talents of
Frank Moore and Jack Koebberling,
the Buc mermen still have yet to
taste defeat in the 200 yard breast-
stroke event.

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
number 43 tonight against Guilford.
For those of you who may be
unfamiliar wvtfh the so-called East
'Carolina "jinx here is a brief run-
down of it: Four years ago, tno
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-poirr. 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 kmd of
jinx to visiting teams, or so it would
seem, Last week's match points this
out. Elon, before coming to Memorial
Gym, was rated one of the highest-
scoring outfits in the Soutiheast 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 wllthis season against
some of the top competition in the
South and have already bettered last
year's record. The fact that tfhe ECC
Poolsters have been able to defeat
?ueh 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 Bucs have a chance to upset
the favorites. The event will take
place in Memorial Gym and a large
crowd is expected.
The Pirates of East Carolina will
once again put their home game
winning streak on the line tonight
w.en Guilford College invades the
Pirate Jen for an important North
State Conference tilt.
East Carolina did the unexpected
last -week when hey defeated Bel-
mont Afetoey ami Elon on successive
nights o keep their home slate clean.
Coach Porter's crew will have to be
at top strength once again if they
polish off the stubborn Guilford five.
The two teams met earlier in the
season at Guilford with the Pirates
coming from behind o win 77-67. At
the present time, tfhe Quakers have
been unable to form a winning com-
oination in 10 starts, but have made
impressive showings against Atlan-
tic Christian, the defending cham-
pion, High Point, and E'ast Carolina.

Bucs Drop Belmont Abbey
East Carolina's loop-leading Pi-
rates rose to the occasion before a
screaming throng of spectators to
defeat Belmont Abbey at the Me-
morial Gym last Friday night by
the score of 87-80. 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 visitors started the
game with visions of another victory;
however, the Bucs soon 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
the night with the Crusaders' flashy
guard Roger Marcel.
Cosch Raymond Martinez announ-
ced tha intramural basketball for
the boys of East Carolina College
began t' is week. Contests were play-
: Monday and Wednesday nights
r.d will be played at "he same time
for the rest of the hoop season.
Seventeen teams comprise a two-
bracket league, according to Coach
Martinez, and a playoff tourney be-
tween t'he leaders of the two brackets
will de ermine a champion at the
end of the year.
Favor d in early campaign ratings
to take the crown for the second
time in two seasons are a re taming
crew of cagens known as the "Cam-
els The Camels are comprised of
boys who have entered EC after
transferring from Campbell College.
Games begin at 6 o'clock every
We imsday and Monday nights and
are played un'il 10 o'clock, with a
different contest taking place every
hour on the hour.
The Quakers, who have averaged
a respectable 70 points per game in
a losing cause, will rely on guard
Bob Atlas and forward Roger Roan
for their scoring punch. Atlas scored
23 points in the first meeting with
EC and is currently averaging close
to 20 poin;s a game; Roan has shown
consistent improvement and is now
oe of the leading scorers for the
Quakers.
Junior forward Don Harris will lead
Coach Porter's aggregation in their
bid to stregthen their conference
lead. Don, an AllConference selec-
tion last year, is leading the team
m scoring with a 23-point average
in conrerence competition. The Lan-
rinburg sophomore has been a big
factor in the fine showing of the
Pirates thus far. Captain J. C. Thom-
as has also been a big leader in the
recent winning spurt of the Bucs.
homas, a senior from Raleigh, is
averaging close to 18 points per
contest.
Nick Nichols, Guy Mendenhall and
Freddy James will round out tonight's
starting lineup. Nick is also averag-
ing in double figures, based mainly
on his one-hand set shot. He has
also developed into one of the top
ball handlers for the Bucs. The slen-
ier Mendenhall could easily be rated
a top team-iman in the conference.
Guy collects his share of points, but
his outstanding defensive work and
rebounding prove to be his most val-
uable asset. James, the Portsmouth,
Va. flash, became a favorite of the
campus with his outstanding play
hiring the past weekend. Freddy
;roved to be a leader in both wins.
Another factor in the improvement
of the ECC squad has been that of
the reserve strength. Guards Maurice
Everett and Waddell Solomon came
through in fine style during the Par-
vis Island Tournament and the past
week. Tim Smothers, Joe Plaster, and
Marion Hales have continued to bol-
ster the Pirates in the height de-
partment.
East Carolina will go into the
game favored to hold their North
State Conference lead and also chalk
up their 43rd straight win in Me-
morial Gym.
