THE DAILY TAR HEEL SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, 2S52 Another One of the most painfully evident changes for the new year is the appearance of the 2 cent postcard; Now, anxious advertisers, who thought they were mailing out some cheap propaganda, will have to double their expenses. 'Gone are the days when the sleepy truck driver could hand out a nickel for a cup of java. Even worse, gone are the days when mother could get rid of the children for 10 cents each, in the Saturday afternoon flick. , In '53 Wool worths will probably change their neon sign to 5 and 10 dollar store, instead of 5 and 10 cent store.-If they don't, they should-and long ago, too. SB - Tar On. My Heels fay Dill C. Drovn longeovet Our congratulations to the Monogram Glub Dining Room and Manager Frank West for the recent general program of improvement and year round good food and service. The dining room is now offering a months meals for only $60, which is probably less than most students pay, no matter where they eat. The menus for this new 16 w price, are excel lent, including a bounteous breakfast. That the dining room is now offering breakfast is in itself a new. improvement. , The new program is in conjunction with the program of serving meals to all the scholarship athletes, 75 of them, who eat in a segregated section behind a velvet rope, including about half of the dining facilities. Indicative of the new program is the new menu the din ing room is now using. A pocket-size affair lists a smaller choice of foods, but inclucfes such a la carte specialties as steaks, sea food platters, arid the famous cream of peanut soup and hush puppies. The dining room is, in short, no longer the place to take your most special date or out-of-town visitor, but is now the place for three solid meals daily. , Nonplus by Horry Snook Holiday memories: Four of us had a most unusual New Year's Eve celebration. We were in Washington and eager for something different. So we telephoned a night club "catering to colored people.' The tariff was low and we were told to come ahead. We an ticipated a rare evening. And we had one. There was a line of colored couples at the door and we had to wait awhile before we reached the headwaiter. He provided us with," a welcome smile and an excellent corner booth. We were the only white people present. Frankly, we expected a rather bawdy evening with some furidus doings. I am ashamed to admit that there was an original notion that Negro antics on a New" Year's Eve would be dif ferent than those elsewhere. But we learned something in fact about which we had only hypothesized before. The guests were well dressed, well mannered, apparently well educated and - extremely .. hos pitable. And to our immense,, surprise and pleasure, there was not the least note of either apology or belligerency in their attitude toward us. At midnight we caught the headwaiter with tears in hjs eyes as "Auld Lang Syne" rang through the building and our hearts. Soon after, he came to our booth, shook hands with each of us, and wished us a splendid New Year. Then the folks in the adjoining booth, in refreshing spontaneity, ex tended us warm wishes it was a pleasure to return them. Only one slight derogatory remark reached our eafs. Just as we . were leaving the club, a woman in the line waiting out side said something about "that's why we can't get in." , Which is exactly what I would have; j said ; under similar cir cumstances. . Working; iii aDurham depart ment store as a clerk proved pro fitable ' in more than ways than one. We eat this month. And I know more about people. The remark X won't forget was made by dozens of shoppers. It was:- "Don't ybu have anything cheaper. It's just for a gift." The students . who cry the loudest are oft times the ones who abuse a privilege once they get it. Loud and long has been the cry for social rooms. Surely we should have the . rooms, even if most are little more than nothing. At least a beginning point has been reached. The University was beginning to , equip social rooms, and even though those in the lower quad were .miserable excuses for social rooms, at least that be ginning had arrived. Now it appears that even the one or two stuffed chairs placed in the rooms are going to be re moved. All because some - stu dents have to abuse the privilege offered them by the University. It will probably be these same students who will be yelling next year that the social rooms have been closed and the fra ternities have an edge on the dorm men because they have social rooms and we don't. DO WE DESERVE THEM? There always have to be a few people in every crowd that are bent on destroying what is theirs and, more important, what is not theirs. Somehow they get a fiendish joy out of doing such things as cutting large gashes in leather chairs. Or, there are those who say, "I'm going to take this chair to my room before someone else DAILYCROSSWORD ACROSS J. Deed 5. Cease 9. An en chantress (myth.) 10. Washes 12. Incited . 13. Beetle 14.

But perhaps this is little more than a new angle on an OYCI story; Perhaps a little graduated; but still the same old destruc tion theme.. But let's shorten the. initials a little. Let's just call them OI's Obnoxious In dividuals. I wonder, though, just how much constructive work these OI's do on campus? How much they have helped in the last year to keep the YMCA active, how much they have done to make the DTH a better paper. I wonder if they even bothered to vote in the last election. I wonder if they have done ANYTHING but throw cups on the Y Court, destroy social rooms, attended an occasional class, and go home every week ends And they think they are getting an education. Today we throw cups,, etc. on the Y Court, tonight we cut a gash in a social room chair or borrow it to put in our room. But there is always that to morrow. That tomorrow when we complain about the trash littering the campus and when we complain because we have no social room. Well, go ahead and complain.
