There is a
"MissECSC“
by Bettye Dowdy
Since the school year began,
the student body, almost in a
single voice, has been asking;
"Who is 'Miss ECSC?”
Speculation over the identity
of the new campus queen was
set in motion when the queen-
elect for 1966-67, Joycelyn Ber
ry, married during the summer.
The second-place runner-
up to Joycelyn in the 1966
queen’s race, a senior from
Williamston, N. C., majoring in
elementary education, became
the new ''Miss ECSC.”
The new queen is active in
campus affairs and organiza
tions. Last year she served as
a junior counselor and as as
sistant secretary of the Light
house College Center. Presently
she is a member of the Art Club,
the Thalia Sorosis Club, the
Usher’s Guild, UCRF, and Del-
to aigma Theta Sorority.
Yes, there is a "Miss ECSC.’’
She is Doris Jean Duggins.
There are no more questions

What's
i n Fa shion
For Men?
by Floyd Johnson
Fall has shown us more best
dressed gentlemen on college
campuses because the "Mod
Look” has taken over America.
Colors of dark green, char
coal, rust, navy blue, black, and
all the shades of brown have
been seen and pastel shirts are
still in as were last year.
Italian knit, gran knit, cash-
mere, and mohair sweaters are
"swinging”. Black and brown
herringbone tweed can be seen.
Double breasted 'three-piece
suits with split-shawl collars
have invaded America and double
breasted sport coats with two
buttons are also very fashionable.
Parmecium necktie and hand
kerchief sets in silk and velvet
have already exploded, along
with polka dot and tear drops.
The wing-tip shoe in black,
bronze, brown, and tan is still
with us. All styles of slip-on
Florsheim shoes are popular.
To highlight this fall’s
fashion world, British Sterling,
Jade East, and Canoe after
shave lotions and colognes
are being used.

Festive
Homecoming
November 5 was a festive
time on the campus of ECSC, as
hundreds of alumni, friends and
students celebrated the 75th
Anniversary Homecoming.
Many alumni returned to find
that the campus had grown con
siderably since they were here
and others who had seen the
growth of the campus, spent the
time renewing fniendships.
A gala parade preceded the
Homecoming game as the streets
of Elizabeth City were lined
with spectators. Many units from
area schools and organizations
helped to make the Homecoming
parade a big event.
Campus floats entered into
competition and the first place
winner this time was also a win
ner from last year’s parade; the
Department of Science.
A Homecoming dance cli
maxed the activities.

FOLLOW THE SWALLOW---
Ever wonder how many times a
day you swallow? A team of
three Boston dental scientists
found this out; the average per
son swallows about 600 times
p/day, with the swallowing
frequently reaching 295 times
p/hour during a meal. Other
hourly rates: 31 swallows for a
person lying supine awake; 36
while seated and reading silent
ly; and 7 while sleeping. The
whole thing was done with 20
young adults whose swallows
were recorded for a day.
