Four face drug rap
Several ECU students have been arrested as a result of
recent drug raids. Four male residents are now facing high
bonds and felony charges.
A raid on second floor Aycock Dorm resulted in the arrest of
one student who was charged with possession of marijuana
with intent to distribute, also with possession of cocaine.
According to Sheriff Ralph Tyson, approximately one pound
of marijuana and nearly $300 worth of cocaine were confiscated
by the arresting officers. Bond was set at $5,000
Three students from 4th floor Aycock Dorm were arrested
for possession of marijuana, hashish, THC, a stainless steel
syringe and smoking paraphenalia. Each has been placed on
$1,000 bond. Since more than five grams of marijuana was
found, each student is charged with a felony.

Entrance policy changes
Environmental health
gets four year program
ECU has recently announced policy
changes regarding admissions to the
University which officials said will tend to
implement a major recommendation of
the Carnegie Commission on Higher
Education.
Immediate effect of the changes will
be to admit about 200 applicants who
have not met all of the existing admission
requirements. Officials said courses will
be provided to assist these students in
removing the deficiencies.
Dr. Leo W. Jenkins, Chancellor,
released a formal statement explaining
the policy changes in relation to the
Carnegie Commission report and ECU'S
position. The text of the chancellor's
statement follows:
"We have decided at ECU to open our
doors to about 200 promising students
who have not met all of our admission
requirements and to provide courses to
assist them in removing the deficiencies
that have caused them not to meet those
requirements. Often the deficiency is a
poor score on standardized tests.
"ECU takes this action in the
furtherance of its commitment to serve
the people of this area in accordance
with recent recommendations of the
Carnegie Commission on Higher Ed-
ucation
"In one of its main recommendations,
following six years of study, the Carnegie
Commission charged institutions of
higher education as follows:
" 'Give aggresive leadership to the
achievement of equality of opportunity
through higher education-seeking out
talent wherever it may be found, providing
remedial work to overcome past
deficiencies where necessary, caring for
the cultural interests of new groups of
students
?MM
"This recommendation of the Commis-
sion 'rings a bell' for us. It translates
freely into our motto 'to Serve
"To carry out this new effort we have
recently made some policy changes and
we have developed plans for providing
remedial work where it will be needed. In
an important step, our Faculty Senate
recommended, and the executive commit-
tee of our Board of Trustees approved, the
discontinuance of high school units in a
foreign language as a requirement for
admission to the University. This action
was taken in recognition of the fact that
good students do not always take foreign
language in high school
"However, I should make it clear that
we wish high school students wold take
foreign language. I should also empha-
size that this action does not discontinue
instruction in foreign languages at the
University. Many students will still find
foreign language study useful to their
career goals and students electing to earn
a liberal arts degree, as opposed to a
teacher education or professional degree,
will still have to take foreign languages
after they come to college.
"We have also made plar s to expand
the scope of our past practice of
accepting a few students each year who
did not meet our admission requirements
if they were recommended by their high
school guidance counsellors. This pro-
gram has been open to only a few
students in the past because we did not
have the resources to provide these
students with assistance in removing their
deficiencies. We are now 'tooling up' to
offer remedial sections in history, English
and mathematics and to provide a
thorough program to assist those who
have reading deficiencies. We will also
set up introductory classes in the various

Now that the world has been in a
frenzy of ecological concern for the past
few years, East Carolina has stepped up
with a new four year program in
Environmental Health studies.
According to Dr. Trenton Davis, there
are many motivations for the concern
about our environment-wildlife, recre-
ation, aesthetics, resourse conservation
and the like-and this concern heavily
influences the actual survival of
man. Because of this, the Environmental
Health program here prepares people to
work in official and private agencies
which are striving to study and preserve
the favorable conditions which we have
today.
There are presently 48 students
officially enrolled in ECU's program, most
of them being North Carolinians. Fifteen
percent of them are women who will
probably meet some discrimination when
they go looking for a job. Environmental
Health has been considered primarily a
field for males in the past the the sex bias
is still very present now. In a survey of
nine southern states, most industries
based this discrimination on excessive
supervision, salary rates and insufficient
educational backgrounds.
Dr. Davis believes, however, that this
will eventually disappear because women
are trained as well as men and are as
capable of work in this field.
In North Carolina, jobs held by people
with a degree in Environmental Health
may carry a number of responsibilities.
Some of these include the maintenance of
shellfish and crustaceans (being sure they
are pure enough for human consumption),
inspection and grading of public
restaurants, cleanliness of public bathing
sites, and septic tank installations.
Practitioners work in connection with
regulatory agents such as local and state
health departments.
In the past, these agencies hired
untrained personnel and had to train them
before they could work. Now that these
programs of Environmental Health have
been established, the agencies save a
great deal of time and money.
DR. TRENTON DAVIS
Students interested in this particular
field may enter the University at the
freshman level with a declared
major. These applicants are carefully
considered and decided upon by the
Admission Committee. At graduation,
they receive a Baccalaureate Degree in
Environmental Health.
Currently, ECU has the only program
of this type in the state. According to Dr.
Davis, there are only seven schools in the
US accredited by the National Environ-
mental Health Association and he hopes
"that we become number 8

Headache
Dr. Robert L. Timmons, a neuro-
surgeon and professor of Surgery at the
ECU School of Medicine will discuss that
painful symptom, the headache, when he
lectures to the public Thursday,
November 29 at ECU.
His lecture entitled: "Headache:
Treatment and Mistreatment" is sche-
duled for 7:30 p.m. in the Allied Health
Building at Charles Street and 264
by-pass in Greenville.
Dr. Timmons is the third in a series of
public lecturers sponsored by the ECU
School of Medicine and the Department of
Pathology in an effort to give the general
public a better understanding of
medicine.
Dr. Abdullah Fatteh, chairman of the
Department of Pathology at ECU
described Dr. Timmons as an expert in the
diseases of the nervous system.
"I believe that Dr. Timmons' lecture
will be a great contribution because he
will outline the various causes of
headache and explain how the headache
could be mistreated with disastrous
results he said.
Dr. Fatteh explained that the headache
is an extremely common symptom that
may result from trivial factors such as
tension, over-work, etc. But he noted that
an organic disease may be responsible for
a headache.
"It is important to recognize the true
cause of headache so that the proper
treatment can be instituted he said.
Prior to joining the ECU School of
Medicine and establishing private practice
in Greenville in 1971, Dr. Timmons was
associate professor of Surgery (Neuro-
surgery) at the University of North
Carolina School of Medicine. He is a
graduate of Yale University and Harvard
Medical School.

Food stamps: students are eligible'
By NANCY LONGWORTH
Staff Writer
The income limit as of January 1974
will be raised to compensate for the rise
in the cost of living.
Net income is computed by
subtracting monthly expenditures from
gross income. Expenditures are bills
such as tuition, fees, medical bills, rent,
utilities, etc. Income includes monetary
gifts, scholarships, grants, wages,
savings, etc.
To apply for food stamps students
should go to the Food Stamp Center in
the Social Sciences building on Johnson
St Mrs. Heindenreich suggests that the
middle of theis month would be a good
time for students to apply for next
quarter. Office hours are from 8:30 a.m.
to 4:00 p.m.
Students in boarding homes, which
includes dormitories, are ineligible.
When you come to apply individually
or for a household, to save time the
following items are necessary: each
individual's parent's name and address;
latest bank statements (checking and
savings); utility, water, telephone and
rent receipts; tuition and fees receipt;
medical expenses; stocks or bond
dividends, etc.
One individual is designated head of
the household. "He or she is legally
responsible for the validity of all
information on the application says Mrs.
Heindenreich.
Once the initial forms have been
completed they are processed. Then the
cost of the stamps is determined. Any
change in income of anyone in the
household post processing must be
reported immediately to the department.
At the beginning of each quarter eligibility
is re-established.
? Food stamps are used just like
currency except for the fact that certain
items cannot be purchased with
them. They will not buy alcoholic
beverages, pet food, household items,
imported food, tobacco, bottle deposits
and soaps. Exact change is required as
money will bot be exchanged for
stamps. Also upon loss food stamps
generally cannot be replaced.
When asked if students cause any
special problems for the program Mrs.
Heindenreich replied, "No, we are always
happy to help students. Sometimes,
though, students as well as other
applicants are perturbed by the number
and extent of questions we must
ask These questions are necessary so
that we may give you efficient and
effective service said Mrs. Heindenreich.
All information given is kept in the
strictest confidence.
Food stamps are accepted by most all
the stores in the Greenville area. Some of
the comments by students now receiving
food stamps were: "They are a good way
to fight inflation of food prices and insure
you a good diet for the quarter Another
student said, "It is money spent thus
reducing impulsive buying that often
leaves you starving at the end of the
quarter These students felt that while it
does take time to apply that the benefits
of the program were well worth it.

Under the new Supreme Court ruling
an individual need no longer be a resident
of the state in which he or she is residing
to buy food stamps. Eligibility Specialist
Supervisor for the Pitt County Department
of Social Services Food Stamps Center,
Mrs Evelyn Heindenreich, says, "that
parents claiming students as income tax
deductions does not render the student
ineligible
In October 1973 there were 1288
households with a total of 4257 persons
receiving food stamps in Pitt County
Nine of these households with a total of
twelve persons were students active in the
program. Four more households were in
the process of acquiring food stamps.
The main purpose of foods stamps is
l0 reduce the amount of money a low
income household must spend on
food. The quanity of food stamps a
household receives depends on the
number of persons living in that
house. The amount that an individual or
individuals must pay for the stamps is
determined by their net monthly
income. Below is a chart indicating the
maximum amount of monthly net income
a family not on public assistance may
have and be eligible for food stamps.
Medic-alert tags
are for students'
physical safety
By SUSAN SHERMAN
Staff Writer
The physical safety of each student on
the ECU campus is the concern of the
administration, infirmary staff ana
faculty
After several incidents of students
becoming ill while in class, several people
have expressed the need for the posting
of emergency procedure charts in eacn
classroom building, Medic-alert tags, and
informing professors of any large scale
health problems which concern hs
students. These safety measures would
aid in quick responsive treatment ot
students during emergencies.
Students who have epilepsy, emphy-
sema diabetes, chronic heart disease, or
frequent astham attacks will wear these
Medic-alert tags. The tags are inexpen-
sive and can be ordered for students
wishing to possess them. The address for
ordering these taos is- Medic-alert
Foundation International, Terlock. Califor-
nia 95380.
Mr Walter N. (Skeet)Creekmore, one
of the professors expressing concern in
the subject of student safety, believes
that each classroom building should have
it's own list of emergency aids. These
lists should be prominently displayed a?
several locations within the building. He
believes that this will reduce the panic in
emergency situations and prevent the
wasting of valuable time. Austin is the
only building on campus which now
prominently displays emergency pro-
cedure notices. Each notice tells the
student what to do in an emergency and
what procedure to follow. It also tells the
student who NOT TO CALL. This may
save valuable time in emergencies.
Mr Creekmore suggested that safety
measures within classroom buildings
should also include a first aid kit and an
oxygen tank to be used if necessary
These items, when used promptly and
properly, would be important in giving aid
in emergency situations.

Students will benefit in these
emergencies by knowing how to ass.st
the victim and by hopefully beingimore
willing to lend a helping hand. Mr.
Creekmore also stated that he thinks the
Student Government Association might
be able to help the most in this area. He
belives that the students will more readily,
accept these suggestions from other
students than having them posted as
administrative policies. If posted by the
administration, the students may regard
each precaution simply as "another dumb
rule instead of as the help it could

The safety and protection of students
should be the concern of each individual
associated with ECU. The precautionary
measures, if taken seriously, could help
save YOUR life.

Marijuana and hashish study shows
'little or no ill effects' from smokini
(CPS)-Two studies on the long-term
effects of marijuana and hashish smoking
have determined that over a period of
years, smoking pot has little or no ill
effects.
The marijuana study, published last
month by Medical Tribune, was
conducted by Dr. Vera Rubin of New York
on heavy pot smokers in Jamaica during
1970 and 1971. Rubin concluded there are
no ill effects-physically, mentally, or
psychologically-from heavy pot smoking
over a period of years.
Rubin studied 30 non-smoking
Jamaicans, and 30 others who had
smoked the equivalent of 17 1 2 years. A
second team of researchers, who were not
told which group was the control group,
gave all the subjects various mental,
physical and psychological tests. This
team found that long term marijuana
smoking does not: cause any changes in
blood pressure or heart activity; show any
evidence of brain activity changes induced
by pot smoking; cause any signigicant
personality differences between smokers
and non-smokers; or produce any other
mental or physical changes.
The study was financed by the
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
with a $158,000 grant, and was turned
over to the Institute in February,
1972. The fact that the report was not
released until last month created
speculation that the report had been
supressed. An NIMH spokesman re-
sponded saying, "That suggestion, if
you'll pardon the expression, is BS He
explained the reason for the delay was,
"because the press showed very little
interest in it The spokesman ccnceded,
however, that if the report had concluded
that marijuana had harmful effects, then
"somebody high in the Nixon adminis-
tration would have announced the
findings the next day
The hashish study was performed in
Greece by Dr. C. Stefanis of the Athens
National Medical School. Stefanis select-
ed 31 men who had smoked an average of
eight grams of hashish daily over a period
of 19 years.
After subjecting the men to IQ,
medical and EEG tests, Stefanis
concluded there was very little evidence of
medical changes in any of the 31
men. What little change there was,
Stefanis speculated, may have been due
to the fact that all the subjects were heavy
alcohol drinkers and tobacco smokers.
Stefanis also discovered the wives of
the subjects said they liked their
hudbands better when their husbands
were stoned.
Admissions
major areas for these students. Our plan
is to place students admitted on the basis
in these special classes, to limit the
number of quarter hours that they can
attempt during their freshman year and to
provide faculty and student assistance to
these students until their study habits
have been improved and their deficiencies
have been removed. They will receive
college credit while this process is going
one. We hope that the lighter course load
of the freshman year can be made up by
summer work or slightly heavier course
loads in the remaining three years. In this
way these students can expect to be
graduated on schedule

will be attached to these students

because they do not meet all of our
admission requirements. We believe, with
the Carnegie Commission, that their

more a result of their deprived

of intensive assistance and dedicated
teaching
"We regard these prospective students
not at 'high risks' or 'poor risks but as
'good risks They are like all students;
they have the potential to earn a
bachelor's degree if that potential is
properly nurtured and developed and if
they work hard. Like all other students
they have the potential to fail. If some of
them fail we will be regretful, as we
always are when some of our students
fail. But in this case we literally intend to
give it 'a good college try and we are
confident that these students will march
forth one day and join the others we have
sent forth to follow careers that are
self-fulfilling to themselves and produc-
tive for the society that sponsored their

Co-ed dorm
proposed
By SUSAN QUINN
Staff Writer
The Board of Trustees recently passed
proposals for an additional coed
dormitory and having faculty pay a f've
dollar parking fee.
The Board of Trustees decided that
faculty and staff members will have to pay
a five dollar parking fee.
According to SGA president Bill
Bodenhamer, this proposal completed the
last platform of his campaign. The
upkeep and construction of parking areas
are funded by parking fees and it is only
reasonable that staff pay their share of
these funds, he said.
Also at the meeting a proposal for
opening another coed dormitory was
passed.
Slay Dorm will be the new coed dorm
beginning Fall quarter 1974. The ad-
ditional coed dorm will be for private
rooms only.
The dorm will be for single rooms only
in an effort to open a dorm that was
previously closed for financial reasons
and to localize the private room owners in
one building rather than housing them all
over campus.
Governing regulations will be the same
as those in the present coed dorm.
Army has no fakers
(CPS)Army recruiters were a little
worried when the ad they ran in the Fall
River, Massachusetts newspaper offered a
bonus of $15,000 i istead of $1500 for any
young man who signed up for four years
in the infantry, artillery or armored
branches. The figure was a typographical
error but it didn't matter. There was not a
single response to the ad, although
unemployment there is 7.2 percent, far
above the national average.
'Hair' is here
ECU presents a 'lighthearted hippy spoof
MITCHELL BOWEN (Berger) clowns around in "Hair" rehersal.
The curly, fuzzy, shaggy, ratty,
shining, gleaming, streaming, knotted,
twisted, beaded, braided, powdered,
bangled, tangled and spangled phenome-
non called HAIR is coming to ECU on
December 5th at McGinnis Auditorium.
A non-plot musical, presenting an
attitude, a climate, an abundance of
incidents, but no straight story-line, HAIR
is the famous speed-marketed tribute to
the life and times of hippie protest. It ran
over four years on Broadway and more
than five in London, and has been seen by
26 million theatregoers the world over.
Beyond its accurate recording of
scene, its grip on an attitude of our times,
HAIR is more nctable for its exuberant
electronic-jazzed score which has very
witty and biting lyrics. The music scales
a variety of mood from the hymnal chant
of "I Got Life" to a weirdly other-worldly
echo of "Walking in Space an ode to the
blissful joys of smoking pot. There are
two songs, "Hare Krishna" and
"Aquarius keyed to the mysticism of
contemplative peace.
The title tune is a youthful anthem in
which hair is seen as a personal protest
against all that is neat, good, measured,
conventional and acceptable. The essen-
tial merit of HAIR was established as its
authentic voice of taboo-busting,
war-hating hippie youth rang out for the
first time in a legitimate New York
theatre. HAIR has it all. from the sweetlv
young faith in four-letter words to a
barefoot, shaggy-headed troglodytes of
HAIR offer up life as if out of an
inexhaustible reservoir of youth and high
spirits.
Edgar Loessin is directing HAIR with
Mavis Ray doing the choreography.
Robert T. Williams is designing the lights
and sets with Carol H. Beule designing
the costumes.
HAIR opens on December 5th at 8:15
in McGinnis Auditorium. Admission is
$2.50 for the faculty, staff, and general
public; free to East Carolina students
with I.D. and activity cards. The
McGinnis Box office is open from 10:00
a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

his federal income tax returns. Agnew
was fined and put on probation.
In the meantime, Taylor began serving
a 15 year prison sentence this month. He

Humane society
The Pitt County Humane Society has
scheduled a fund-raising campaign
Saturday Dec. 1 at Five Points and other
central locations in Greenville.
Graham House, president, said
Society volunteers will be stationed on
the streets to accept donations from
passers-by. Persons who wish to
contribute funds by personal check may
mail their checks to 2414 Umstead Ave
Greenville. All contributions to the
Society are tax-deductible.
Since its establishment in 1971, the
Society has found homes for approxi-
mately 500 stray cats and dogs,
co-sponsored the Friends of Animals
Spaying Program here and secured
veterinary care for numerous sick or
injured animals.
House noted that Bateman's Animal
Hospital and the Pet Kingdom pet shop
have been vital to the Society's efforts.
The organization meets regularly on
the second Monday of each month at
Planters National Bank on Third St. at 8
p.m. New members of all ages are
welcomed.
Establishment of an animal shelter in
Pitt County is the Society's main goal for
1974, said President House, as well as
continuation of the spaying program,
which provides low-cost sterilization of
pet animals.

ECU economists
Two ECU economists discussed the
salary structure of the physical therapy
profession at the annual meeting of the
Southern Economic Association in
Houston, Tex.
Dr Louis Zincone, chairman or
economics in the ECU School of Business
and associate professor Frank A. Close
presented the findings of their analysis of
physical therapists' salaries to the
meeting. .
The Zincone-Close report is one or
several recent economic reports in the
field of medical economics, an area of
interest which has grown rapidly.
According to Dr. Zincone, information
about salary structures and employment
conditions in the allied health professions
has been "almost completely non-
existent
Their report is a first attempt to
measure and explain the salaries of
physical therapists as a labor market.

Season's greetings
In this first Winter issue, Fountainhead continues its stepped-up coverage of
campus news with stories on recent drug arrests, admissions policy changes and
Environmental Health. A major future project includes an in-depth study of the
student-teacher evaluation system at ECU: what it's good for who makes use of it
and what its future seems to be. Also upcoming is coverage of the energy crisis as it
pertains to Greenville, a profile of the now-existing Publications Board and numerous
reviews culled by our very eager reviews editor and his magic staff.
' This particular issue also boasts an obviously-massive Forum which has bumped
Jack Anderson out for this week. (Keep those letterslettersletters coming in )
Aside from the frivolity and grand plans, et al: we're pretty confident at this point,
hope you feel the same about yourselves, and will do what we can to make the
leoendarily blah Winter Quarter a virtual paradise, a carnival, a garden of excitement, a
veritable eighth wonder. (Insert tongue in cheek when you hear this tone).
On second thought, there may be no cure for Winter Quarter. Let us know if one
arises.

Concert reply
Editor's note: The following is in reply to
a letter signed "Disgusted Students"
which appeared in the Nov. 8 issue,
complaining about entertainment quality
on campus.
Dear "Disgusted Students
The reason why Elon College has an
advantage over ECU in booking pop acts
is for a simple geographical reason.
Being located between Raleigh, Durham,
Chapel Hill, Greensboro, and Winston-
Salem, Elon is in an excellent position to
-book major acts on evenings when the act
needs a fill-in date. In contrast, ECU is
located in a small rural town in an
unpopulated area of the state, and any act
that comes here must necessarily
inconvenience itself to get here. If I may
correct your statements; Rod Stewart has
played only two dates in North Carolina in
recent years at Duke and in Charlotte, and
the Doobie Brothers cancelled all their
southern dates when they cancelled ours.
The problem in booking major
concerts is not an internal one; the fact of
the matter is that the Popular
Entertainment Committee is finding itself
suffering from major changes that have
been occuring in the music business
nation-ide. Given this introduction let
me give you a few factors that have
entered into the present difficulties.
1. Prices for acts have risen. Several
years ago, top name nationally known
acts could be purchased in the $7,000 to
$15,000 price range. At present $25,000 is
generally a minimal fee for groups like
Faces, Jethro Tull and the Allman
Brothers.
2. The acts generally take 60-70 per cent
of each ticket, so the group prefers to
play in large coliseums like the Charlotte
Coliseum, Greensboro Coliseum, the
Spectrum, etc where more tickets are
sold. To compound the problem, in
recent years more and more cities are
building these facilities so college concert
halls generally aren't needed.
3. The Student Union is suffering from
competition with professional promoters.
A promoter who does $5 million of
business a year has a better bargaining
position than we do when we only put on
five or six shows a year. For instance, the
Allman Brothers would cost the Student
Union $50,000 whereas a promoter can
buy a number of dates for perhaps half
that price. In addition, the agencies
prefer to deal with promoters because
mm m i m
they save the agent the trouble of working
out the show-time, routing, ticket
pricings, and similar details.
4. As mentioned earlier, ECU is
geographically situated in a rural locale,
far from major urban centers, with poor
highway access, and no immediate airport
facilties. It's a real problem for the acts to
get here, and frequently they feel that
ECU is simply not worth the trouble.
5. Colleges are not where money-making
concerts are held because the sponsors
are student committees who operate on a
break even basis rather than on a
profit-making basis. As a result, student
ticket prices are low, and the act receives
less money.
These are the handicaps we've working
under when we attempt to book major pop
acts, so I hope I've answered some of
your questions. If you would like to
discuss the matter in greater detail or
have some solutions, drop by Room 213
in Wright Annex; I'd appreciate your
feedback.
Sincerely,
Gibert Kennedy
Student Union President
Tobacco v. heat
To Fountainhead.
As I think of the cold showers ahead
and cold evenings in bed because of the
impending fuel shortages, I ask
myself: "How much fuel is wasted by my
extravagance in heating and driving,
etc.?" or worse yet "How much is wasted
by my bad habits-namely smokiny?"
I bug myself by thinking of the
outrageous amount of fuel used to plant,
maintain, fertilize, cure and manufacture
tobacco. Why don't I do something about
it. Maybe we can do something, or, are
there to many voters like myself that
smoke and too many districts dependent
on tobacco and tobacco products to
suggest negative legislation on the
subject. I don't know.
As many voters and politicians are
dependent on tobacco, so is the economy
(local and national). Ii would be unwise
therefore to oust tobacco without some
compensatory action to the labor and
manufacturing plants involved. One sug-
gestion is reverting the plants to the
manufacturina of fuel from garbage or any
one of a hundreds necessary businesses.
(Government subsidy would obviously be
needed at first, but perhaps all the wasted
resources and capitol in the tobacco
would just be rechanneled.) Over the
years a net gain in the economy is very
possible.
Please think about this and write any
suggestions, comments or facts to the
Fountainhead or myself concerning
anything mentioned.

TheFCfUTTI CONTINUED
ECU rapped
To Fountainhead:
Enclosed is an editorial I have written
concerning East Carolina's recent
withdrawal of its name as a candidate to
compete in the Tangerine Bowl.
I wrote this editorial knowing
beforehand I would mail it to you and
having high hopes that you would publish
it in your school newspaper, The
Fountainhead. I do not believe it attacks
Coach Randle or the football team with
great criticism, but it does get my point
over.
I would appreciate you and your staff
reading my letter and hope you may agree
with some of my points. I also believe
others may agree with my letter.
Please consider it for publication in
the Fountainhead.
Sincerely yours,
Peter Carroll
NCSU student
Senior
Editor's note: The following commentary
was received with the above cover letter.
The statement made by Coach
Sonny Randle that "If ECU doesn't go to a
bowl game this year, then there is
something wrong with the bowl pickers
should be changed to there is
something wrong with Coach Randle and
his Pirates
Coach Randle doesn't recall issuing an
ultimatum, but no matter what anyone
says, Randle did pressure the Tangerine
Bowl oficials into making an early
decision, actually making it the same
Monday ECU withdrew its name. Loyal
ECU fans may never know how
detrimental Coach Randies behavior was
on the Tangerine Bowls' decision to ask
thp University of Florida, fnstead of ECU.
to play against Miami of Ohio.
Even Tangerine Sports Association
President Will Geiger remarked before
ECU'S withdrawal, "ECU has a strong
chance now since Tampa was beaten
Saturday And if the University of
Florida loses to the University of Miami
this Saturday, their 5-5 record sure would
not be as impressive as ECU'S 9-2 record.
So why didn't Randle refrain from
hurrying bowl officials and just wait until
Saturday and maybe accept a Tangerine
Bowl bid? ECU should have realized they
were one of a few teams being considered
and should have waited if it had really
wanted a bowl game. But then everyone
knows the Pirates voted unanimously to
all go home for Thanksgiving and get fat
off of turkey.
Cold advice
To Fountainhead:
Oh come on ECU students. I'm tired
of hearing people complain about the
cold. It makes me angry. It isn't cold
yet! What's this about retreating to a
blanket and mattress? It's merely a matter
of acclimatizing yourself. A person can
operate comfortably at 50-) degrees if
only he will permit himself to become
adjusted. And that doesn't happen over
night. Wear sensible clothes. Not these
stylish flimsey shoes. Have your girls
who are cold thought about wearing
T-shirts under those mod little blouses of
yours? I discovered long ago how
comfortable long handles made life; why I
don't go anywhere without mine.
This may or may not be a rough winter
heat wise but it sure won't hurt us softies
to tolerate a little cool weather.
Part of the problem of course is poor
circulation. EXERCISE. The better the
bloodflow the warmer the body. You can
also be cold if you overdress. Any hiker
knows that sweating is bad in cold
weather. The moisture only makes you
colder. Would you believe it's warmer
sleeping without clothes on than with
them? Your body has a natural
thermostat that works if you don't
smother it.
If you're cold in bed sleep with
someone but if you can't solve your
problem that way try the old trick of
sleeping in a knit cap. Believe me the
heat conserved that way helps a great
deal. I haven't even turned on the heat in
my place yet. I know I can be comfortable
just by giving myself time. Try it. There
may be a time when there is no heat to
turn on, what then? Survival of the fittest
you know.
Sincerely,
Diana Mills
Stolen art
To Fountainhead:
I am not in the habit of writing to a
newspaper, but at the moment it seems
my only rational alternative, and do hope
you will print my letter.
My final project for my design 15
course (yes, I am a mere freshman art
major) was to do a painting, any size,
shape or color, but it had to deal largely
with organic nature. I stretched a 28 X 24"
canvas, did a painting in shades of gold,
brown, and black of a farm with three
large wheat pods in the foreground. I
spent -an ungodly amount of time on it
because I had planned to give it to my
father for Xmas. But, I returned Monday,
Nov. 26 to retrieve the painting and the
room was locked. I spent all day Tuesday
fighting drop-add, and returned again on
Wednesday, Nov. 28 to try again. There
were only a few of my classes' projects
remaining, and unfortunately mine was
not among them. I will ASSUME
someone picked it up by mistake. (I hate
people that steal art) And desperately
need the painting back. No questions
asked! If anyone has any information
concerning its whereabouts, I would be
eternally grateful. I don't have the time to
do another one between now and
Christmas, and really can't afford to buy a
gift. Please return it. It can just be left in
the lobby or office of Cotten dorm, or can
be brought to my room, 447. I can also be
contacted at 752-2505.
Thank you,
Krista Brickey

Thank you
To the nice guy who helped:
I'm writing this to thank the very nice
man who found and returned my
pocketbook to me. It's reassuring to
know that there are some involved,
responsible people still around. I did not
get the opportunity to ask his name or
thank him enough, but I hope he will see
this letter and know that I sincerely
appreciate his effort. The papers in there
were irreplaceable. Thanks again to
whomever you are.
Joette Abeyounis
Jester again
To Fountainhead:
In my wanderings over the campus
searching for a spot to mend my heart, I
hapened to bump into Dr. Jenkins. He,
too, was looking a bit sad what with no
medical school, no liquor-by-the-drink,
except in his box at Ficklen Sradium, and
that horrid loss to Carolina still reddening
his neck. The good Dr. walked along with
me for a while, and before long we were
like old friends, both drowning in our
misery. When we passed Joyner Library,
Dr. Jenkins nearly went into dream and
incant over a few precious copies of the
AMA journal, but reason prevailed. We
then went over to this office to peruse the
latest issue of the "Sayings of Jim Hunt
two paragraphs of near flawless eridition.
Finally, Leo asked me about a vicious
rumor circulating through these halls of
knowledge (Braxton, that is). In order to
preserve my own life, I must deny ever
comparing the Kappa Alphas to a band of
Neanderthalic mongrels nurtured on beer
and the salty juices of young southern
belles. Never have I compared those fine
southern men, stoop-shouldered from the
weight of great intellectual loads to mere
curs in heated pursuit of furry game.
But if I did offer such a comparison, It
would be in this way. The KA's stagger to
class wearing confederate flags em-
broidered across their eyes. I suppose the
attraction to that symbol of stupidity lies
in the "bats but although beer and
liquor-faced Cokes provide an escape
from his stupidity one drunk KA,
unfortunately, is as bad as two sober
ones, if sober ones can be found. Hence,
generally, these KA's become mere brutes
roaming the campus with Greek letters for
crutches. Like the Neanderthals, they
worship the ground, the sky, all nature
and fertilize the earth with burning vomit
spewed forth with all the aplomb of a
Tri-Delt pledge.
So, I must deny spreading rumors of
impropriety about the Kappa Alphas. In
fact, I hope that they exhume Jeff Davis
and display his rotten body for all the
world to see the end of southern
gentlemen . The KA pledges could lay
their yellow-stained jocks on this new
southern shrine, and in that stinking
decayed body, we could all see the soul
of a true KA.
Yours humbly,
M.D. Hickson, Jr.

Fond farewell
To Fountainhead:
I won't be here winter quarter and I'm
not really sure whether I'll be back spring
quarter or not.
All last year, I tried to get out of
ECU. Now this year, that I'm leaving, I
don't want to go. But, alas, financial
difficulties are forcing me to drop out and
attempt to transfer to another school.
I don't know exactly what I'm trying to
say, but I'm going to try. This one
quarter, I have done more, met more
people, been more places, had more fun
and generally had a better time here than I
have ever had before.
I would like to extend a special thanks
to a few friends. To Bob, Iver, Jim, Diane,
Lee, Jeff and Larry and Gary. Bill and
another Bill. Tom and Tom, Dana,
Eugene, Mary, Byrd, Dance's sister
Nanc Nancy who I played tennis with
this summer. Doris and Cathy, Ann and
Joanne. ftiyliss, Carol and their friends,
Susan and Suzanne, Kit, Lisa, Jenny,
Neal and Philly. Deborah. There are a lot
more, but these people are kind of
special. Especially Deborah. Also special
thanks to anyone who ever smiled to me,
a long hair, bearded type. There is so
much here at East Carolina, that even
while I'm gone, I am planning on coming
back. I rarely miss anyone when I leave
them because as long as I can think of
them, I feelthat I am still with them, so,
for everyong that I am leaving, I hope you
will remember me wbjle I'm gone and not
forget me if I never return. My kitten and I
are going to cruise next Tuesday (Nov.
20th) and we will attempt to
return. Houdini said he would try but he
never has, so I won't make a promise I
can't keep.
For you people staying: East Carolina
is a good place with good people. Take
advantage of the opportunities here, both
in class and outside.
These words cannot really say what I'd
like for them to, not as much as an
action, a deed, a touch or a hug, but they
will have to do.
Sincerely,
Crazy L.
Who is the same as he was last year only
a little more honest and truthful now.

Dickey the superpoet and superpersonality
JAMES DICKEY IN GREENVILLE, N.C.
-William Bloodworth
James Dickey, novelist, film writer,
actor, personality cum laude, and poet,
visited East Carolina University on
November 12 and 13. Feeling eternally
seventeen and garbed vaguely in the
tradition of Walt Whitman, the author of
"Deliverance" visited English classes,
offered his comments on poetry and on
"Deliverance" to interested students and
faculty, read his work to an aduience in
Wright Auditorium, and conducted a
poetry workshop the following morning
before submitting to newsmen who
wanted to know what he thought about
his novel being banned and burned in
North Dakota. (He felt that Hitler had
risen from the dead.)
Once, when asked, "Don't you find
being a public figure .very difficult?"
Dickey replied, "I certainly do, and if
anything does me in it's going to be
that His appearance here revealed the
reason for Dickey's statement: he works
hard at being a Public Poet. The "New
Republic" has called him "Superpoet
and he does a good job in the role,
complete with touches of alcohol,
showmanship and seriousness.
If you had been around in the English
building on Monday morning, November
12, you might have noticed the style of a
Superpoet as he sat perched on a chair
balanced on a dest in front of and above a
classroom of somewhat uncertain
admirers. (But he didn't fall off.) Or, if
you had still been around that afternoon,
you would have noticed the unshaved,
bulbous-when-at-rest face still at work
here and there, talking poetry,
"Deliverance Bert Reynolds, poetry, Jon
Voight, and poetry to one and all. And if
by chance you had looked under the wide
brim of the safari hat expecting to see
sure signs of boredom or unfocused
expressions of mere duty in the shaded
blue eyes, you would have been
disappointed.
At Dickey's reading that night you
could have heard preliminary rumors of
inebriation and sensed a renewed concern
for the poet's bodily balance. But the
man showed up, leaned only a little on
the lectern, and spoke with deep Georgia
clarity.
The firmest impression that Dickey
made that night was that he knows what
he's up to. And what he's up to, quite
simply, is the gospel of poetry. "Poetry
he said once in a "Mademoiselle"
interview, "is just about the last
repository of language, of depth
language, where you try to offer
something to another person, something
of yourself, some insights that you've
had, some phrase that you think is
meaninfrul or life-quickening in some
way Poetry, that is, is an alternative to
the manipulating words of our time,
which come too often from the mouths of
advertising agencies, computers, institu-
tions, and politicians.
Being eternally seventeen at his best,
Dicky offered something of himself by
explaining the biographical and emotional
contexts of several very personal poems,
and by reading his work with verve and
animation. That his performance ap-
proached both the maudlin and the
egotistical at times didn't seem especially
important. What was important, perhaps,
was the ironic combination of Dickey's
own Whitmanesque enthusiasm and an
audience that would have fit into a
considerably less spacious hall than
Wright Auditorium.
The crowd responded beyond its size,
however, whenever Dickey exhibited what
he has called "that electrical kind of
responsiveness to things and to people
out of which poetry comes, must
come The best poem of the evening
may have been "Cherrylog Road which
evokes the felt power and sexuality of
youth in a story of clandestine love in a
remembered Georgia junkyard. The trans-
cendent power of human responsiveness
even in "the parking lot of the dead" is the
theme of the powm. Its words are
physical, exuberant:
I held her and held her and
held her,
Convoyed at terrific speed
By the stalled, dreaming
traffic around us
As we clung, glued together,
With the hooks of the seat
springs
Working through to catch us
red-handed
Amidst the gray breathless
batting
That burst from the seat at
our backs.
We left by separate doors
Into the changed, other
bodies
Of cars, she down Cherrylog
Road
And I to my motorcycle
Parked like the soul of the
junkyard
Restored, a bicycle fleshed
With power, and tore off
Up Highway 106, continually
Drunk on the wind in my
mouth,
Wringing the handlebar for
SpCOQ,
Wild to be wreckage forever.
Or perhaps it was "False Youth:
Autumn. Clothes of the Age" that most
enlightened the audience-this time with a1
tale of the counter-cultural style of an
aging man running the gantlet of a silent
majority barbershop while wearing the
work POETRY festooned by eagles on the
back of his jacket.
After an exciting, tumbling, almost
frothy reading of a white water passage
from "Deliverance Dickey stepped off
the stage, declining with a wave of the
hand to participate in the expected
question and answer session after his
reading. Some, you could have seen,
were upset by this. But the Superpoet
had been answering all day.
At 9:18 the next morning Dickey
showed up for his final Greenville
appearance, a workshop in poetry
sponsored by the East Carolina Poetry
Forum. "Extremely impressed as he
said he was, by local poems given to him
the day before, Dickey proceeded with
unusual inspiration, many smiles, and
great congeniality to criticize what he had
read. His chief poetic advice was that "all
roads lead to form either traditional or
organic.
When the workshop was over you
could have heard Dickey say to a
would-be poet, "I just wish I had more
time And at that point, before the media
closed in on him for his parting
pronouncements about nature (he
approves of it) and book burning, you
would have believed him.
Temptations exhibit finesse
By SUSAN OUINN
Staff Writer
If you were in Minges Coliseum at
8:00 p.m. November 8 you know that it
wasn't "just your imagination running
away with you
The dynamic Temptations were there
dressed in their flashy white and red satin
and sequined costumes.
The moving, grooving, Motown sound
loving crowd was entertained by three
female vocalists called Quite Elegants,
and the Temptations.
The Temptations evolved from five
young Detroiters who were amateur
singers and have become superstars.
Melvin Franklin, Otis Williams and Dennis
Edwards are original members of the
group. Richard Street and Damon Harris
are newcomers of the group.
In an interview prior to the concert
Melvin Franklin said that the Temptations
started as two cousins, Richard Street
and Melvin Franklin, and a school chum,
Otis Williams, going around singing
Christmas carols in the neighborhood.
The Temptations, one of the member
groups of the original Motown sound, has
recorded 21 gold records, one platinum
album and 1 platinum record Franklin
said.
When asked about the importance of
the group's costumes and choreography,
Franklin replied, "Singing is our
business. Costumes and dances merely
accentuate our singing Damon Harris
designs the costumes and Charlie Atkins
helps create the dances for the
Temptations.
Franklin said, "When I entered Minges
I could feel the warmth of the crowd As
for his opinion of entertaining in
Greenville, N.C. Franklin said, "the
people make the place
"My Girl" and "Imagination" are my
favorite songs we've recorded Franklin
said.
Some of the songs that the
Temptations performed included "Get
Ready "My Girl "The Way You Do the
Things You Do "Cloud Nine
"Imagination and the Grammy award
winning "Papa Was a Rolling Stone
The Temptations have recently
completed a show with Dione Warwick in
Las Vegas and will finish their work for
this year on an Oriental tour after a brief
stop in Hawaii and a television
appearance with Sonny and Cher.
THE TEMPTATIONS performed magnificantly before a receptive audience in Minges.

Concerts offer variety
Sunday's Homecoming concert had
something for everybody's tastes?blues,
hard rock and boogie beat.
Blues Man, John Hammond opened
the concert playing and singing with the
powerful and exciting style that has made
him a well-known musician amoung blues
advocates throughout the country. Ham-
mond exhibited a mastery of his
instruments of which only a seasoned
professional is capable; alternating
between steel guitar and dobro and
accompaning himself on harmonica, the
man exhibited his versatility, talent and
confidence in a tight and traditional blues
performance.
Lynard Skvnard blasted their way into
Minges with a loud' and disappointing-
ly indistinctive show. Occasionally one
could detect a particularly good guitar
run or a well done base line but the overall
performance of the band was definitely all
show and no meat.
Within 30 minutes after "Wet Willie"
hit the stage the crowd was up out of their
seats and moving. Lead singer Jimmy
Hall took command of the crowd with his
funky blues style-playing and singing
what he calls "nasty rock 'N' roll The
performance was hard-driving and by far
the most exciting one of the day.
Canticle opens winter with
hopes of new local talent
With the opening of the new Student
Union, the Canticle has a strong
possibility of obtaining a permanent
room. This means that if possible we
could provide the students with weekly
entertainment in a mellow and relaxed
atmosphere. As it stands now, the
Canticle sponsors an average of two
professional Coffee House acts a
quarter. The Committee thus far appears
to be getting a good response from the
student body. We would like however to
continue having professional shows but at
the same time start a weekly coffee house
with good local entertainment, since in
the near future we will probably have our
own room. The problem remains that if
we are to continue with the monthly

Buc Cagers open with UNC-W
By STEVE TOMPKINS
Staff Writer
The key word associated with the
1973,74 East Carolina basketball team is
"run something the Pirates have been
doing a lot of in practice.
Abandoning the deliberate style of last
year's team, Coach Tom Quinn has
installed a fast break offense and full
court pressure defense which adds up to
an exciting game on the court and a few
surprises for the opposition.
Quinn explained this year's strategy,
"We have the talent this year to play a
more aggressive game. We're going to
fast break, press on defense and use
ample substitutions. This will be one of
the most exciting teams in the conference
to watch
The only bleak aspect of this years
team is experience. This is the youngest
team in the Southern Conference. Only
one player on tlie entire squad has ever
started a game for ECU. Six of last years
top eight players are gone. Three
freshmen and three junior college
transfers figure highly into the Pirate's
plans.
Obviously anyone looking at three of
the Pirates first four opponents, Duke,
N.C. State and Davidson, wonder how
with such inexperience the Pirates can
hope to compete.
Nicky White, a starter last year at
forward but who will play center this year
rejects this idea of inexperience.
White says, "Though we're young, we
have a lot of maturity which is sometimes
overlooked. We have a great deal of
quickness and depth this year
Any team's success is based on talent
and East Carolina had its best year
recruiting to add to the talent already
present.
The center position this year belongs
to the aforementioned Nicky White, all
6'8" and 210 pounds of him. Yet
compared to 7'3" Tommy Burleson of
State and 7'1" Fessor Leonard of Furman,
White is really a midget.
Quinn comments, "Nicky will be
giving up 8 inches to Burleson, yet he has
a great deal more quickness. Nicky is
poised, changes hands well and has had
his best games in the middle. He'll
compete with anybody inside
Backing up White is 6'8" Larry Hunt, a
teammate of State's David Thompson at
Shelby H.S. who last year was their MVP
and led them to the state 4-A
championship. He led Shelby in both
rebounding and scoring.
At strong forward there is co-captain
Tom Marsh and an outstanding junior
college prospect in Robert Geter.
Marsh was a starter until a repeat of
last year's knee injury occurred last
Tuesday. Marsh will play with a brace the
rest of the season, and his effectiveness
is still in doubt.
Geter, who averaged 20 points and
18.4 rebounds at Southeastern Com-
munity College in Whiteville, N.C, last
year was voted the outstanding player in
his conference.
The 6'6" Geter made the Associated
Press Honorable Mention All-American
team last year, and should greatly
enhance the Pirates board strength.
At quick forward are returning
lettermen Roger Atkinson, Chuck Mohn,
Greg Ashorn and Al Edwards.
Atkinson, a senior who stands 6'3"
and the other co-captain, was a reserve
forward last year who adds experience,
outside scoring and rebounding to the
squad.
Gregg Ashorn, a 6'3" transfer from
North Greenville (S.C.) Junior College, led
his team to the nationals and was named
to the All-Tournament team.
Chuck Mohn, a 6'5" junior, adds a fine
outside jump shot to his rugged
rebounding ability.
Al Edwards, last year MVP on the ECU
junior varsity, adds additional depth to
the forward position.
At wing guard East Carolina has two
of the finest prospects in the conference.
Reggie Lee, 6'3" who averaged 21
points and 9 rebounds a game at Einstein
H.S. in Kensington,Maryland, brings a
string of honors with him to ECU.
A two time All-County, All-Metropoli-
tan and last year a first team All-State
selection, Lee is an excellent shooter and
fierce competitor with all the tools for
stardom.
Another man with impressive creditals
is Buzzy Braman, a 6'3" guard out of
Springbrook H.S. in Maryland. Braman
made Scholastic Magazine's prep
All-American team, and was the MVP in
the Maryland State Tournament.
At point guard Donnie Owens and Ken
Edmonds will fight for the starling
position, with Randy McCullen backing
them up.
Owens, a two time All-Conference
player at Florida College at Temple
Terrace, is an excellent floor leader who at
6'1" is also a fine shooter.
Edmonds, a letterman last year as a
sophomore, is a running guard who adds
needed experience to the backcourt.
With Furman and Davidson favored to
win the conference, East Carolina will
figure strongly in the race for the
championship. With a running and
pressing game opponents will find a
different Pirate to handle.
Coach Quinn commented, "I guarantee
we'll be in better condition than any team
we play. We're going to score a lot of
points with our pressure defense. This
group of players has desire, competive-
ness and hustle and if we stay healthy we
should be able to compete with anybody
Two a day practices have molded a
young bunch of players into an aggressive
and hungry team, ready to take on the
likes of the number two ranked team in
the country.

Mountaineers cop SC Title
Appalachian State University captured
the Southern Conference Soccer Cham-
pionship on Nov. 10 at Minges Field as
they hung on for dear life to defeat the
Pirates of East Carolina, 3-2.
The Pirates, trying to make amends for
a 9-0 loss pinned on them earlier in the
year by the Mountaineers, certainly put
forth their finest effort of the year.
Appalachian State saw Emmanuel
Uodgu give them a quick 2-0 lead with a
couple of electrifying moves to sweep
past the Pirate defense. Uodgu will not
be with the Mountaineers next year due to
the fact that he has signed a contract to
play professional soccer.
With the score 2-0 early in the game, it
appeared that a repeat performance of the
two club's previous contest was in store
for the sparse crowd.
East Carolina's defense, led by Brad
Smith, got stingy and denied the
numerous Mountaineer offensive attacks.
Pirate goalie Bucky Moser was superb as
he turned aside many goalward
Apalachian shots with apparent ease.
With ASU leading 2-0 and no help in
sight, the unexpected happened to the
visitors. Tom O'Shea came up with the
ball from nowhere and rifled a shot past
the hapless ASU goaltender with only
eight seconds remaining in the half. The
two clubs left the field with the
Mountaineer's lead cut in half, 2-1.
When Appalachian's Frank Kemo
scored to put them up 3-1, things
appeared to be all over for the purple and
goal contingent.
The Pirate did not give up by any
means and Danny O'Shea, Tom's brother,
came up with an unassisted tally that
pulled the Bucs to within one at 3-2.
Further Pirate scoring attempts were
futile as Appalachian's depth and
experience closed the door and cancelled
any thoughts of a soccer championship
coming to Greenville.
The Pirates were great on this cold
Saturday morning, however there always
appeared to be a white shirted (ASU)
player at the right place at the right time.
East Carolina, having picked up six
points toward the Commissioners Cup,
finished out the year with a respectable
4-5-2 season mark. They now look to next
year and the hope of bringing even more
pride to "Pirate Land

Grapplers impressive; Monroe lost
By DAVE ENGLERT
Assistant Sports Editor
The East Carolina wrestling team
opened the 1973-74 season with excellent
performances in three tournaments. A
serious injury to co-captain Dan Monroe
marred this early season action.
With four first place winners and three
third place finsihers, the Pirates
dominated the Colgate University Open
Tourney, held in Hamilton, N.Y. on
November 9 and 10.
"I was extremely pleased with the
performance of the team as a whole
stated coach John Welborn. "No other
team got more than one first place
Jim Blair won at the 118 pound weight
class, and co-captain Dan Monroe
finished first at 126.
"Danny won the trophy for being the
outstanding wrestler of the tournament
added coach Welborn.
Other first place winners for the
Pirates were Milt Sherman at 142, and
co-captain Bill Hill at 177.
Third place finishers for the Bucs
included Tom Mattiott at 142, Ron
Whitcomb at 167 and Jim Cox at 177.
"Jim also won the tournament trophy
for the most number of falls in the least
? amount of time related Welborn.
ECU faced varied competition in this
tourney. Schools such as Syracuse,
Springfield, Yale and the University of
Buffalo sent entire teams, while there
were representatives from all the New
York state schools, and from colleges in
Ohio and Pennsylvania.
The Pirates next competed in the East
Stroudsburg Open Tourney, held in
Stroundsburg, Pa. November 16 and
17. However, prior to this tournament,
Dan Monroe suffered his injury at a
practice session.
"Before we left we lost one of our
wrestlers-one of our best wrestlers,
Danny Monroe, for the season. Danny
separated his shoulder the day he was
supposed to leave for East Stroudburg
explained coach Welborn.
"It has been operated on continued
Welborn. "He will be red-shirted this
season, so that he will be eligible to come
back and compete next year
Monroe had been counted on to
possibly be one of the Bucs' best
wrestlers in the NCAA national
tournament.
"The loss of Danny will definitely hurt
us on the national level and possibly on
the conference level added the
coach. "The boys are sorry to lose Danny,
with his wrestling ability and leadership.
He has been co-captain now for three
straight years
At East Stroudsburg, Milt
Sherman was the lone Pirate grappler to
capture a title. Sherman took first place
at 134.
Second place finishers were Jim Blair
and Bill Hill, at 118 and 177 respectively.
This tournament, with over 500
entries, provided a stiff challenge for the
Pirate wrestlers.
"The East Stroudsburg tournament is
comparable to the Wilkes (Wilkes Open
Tourney) stated Welborn. "It is certainly
as tough as any we go to
East Carolina did not enter the
tournament in an official capacity, as in
the two other tournaments.
"A Southern Conference rule barrs
member teams from competing officially
before December 1, but we would have
finished second to AIA (Athletes in
Action). They are made up of former
college wrestlers, and even have some
Olympians. We were the number one
college team there asserted Welborn.
"I was extremely pleased with the
performance of the team concluded the
coach. "We were competing against the
best teams in the East
Other schools competing included
Slippery Rock, Montclair State, Lock
Haven, Pittsburg, Ohio State, Purdue, and
West Chester.
The latest tournament in which the
Pirates tangled was the Thanksgiving
Open Wrestling Tournament. It was held
in Norfolk, Va. on November 24.
Seven of the ten first place finishers
wore the purple and gold of ECU. They
included Jim Blair at 118, Paul Ketchum
at 126, Milt Sherman at 134, Tom Marriott
at 142, Paul Prewitt at 158, Bill Hill at 177
and Willie Bryant at Heavyweight.
Bruce Hall was second at 158, as was
Ron Whitcomb at 167, Jim Cox at 177 and
Mike Radford at 190.
Steve Satterthwaithe was third at 150,
with Jack Stortz fourth in the same weight
class.
Sherman was voted the "Outstanding
Wrester Award" for the Tournament.
Teams providing the opposition here
included West Chester, William & Mary,
Pembroke, N.C. State and Temple.
The squad returns to the mats this
weekend as they look to defend their title
in the North Carolina Collegiate
Championships. The action will take
place in Chapel Hill Friday and Saturday.
Buc Gridders snubbed again by Tangerine Bowl
There will be no tangerines for the
football Pirates in Orlando this year. In
circumstances which can only be
described as unique, the Mid-American
Conference representative, Miami of Ohio,
will play the University of Florida. The
site has been changed from the Tangerine
Bowl in Orlando to Florida's larger home
stadium in Gainsville.
Last Monday, November 19, the
Tangerine Bowl Committee met and
decided to postpone any offering of bids
until the following Monday. Teams
reported to be under consideration
included East Carolina, Tampa, Tulsa,
Temple, and San Diego State.
That night the ECU squad met and
voted to ask that the school's name be
withdrawn from any further bowl
consideration this year.
Before this final official meeting of the
year, East Carolina University Chancellor
Dr. Leo W. Jenkins, Athletic Director
Clarence Stasavich and Head Football
Coach Sonny Randle met and voiced full
support in advance of whatever decision
the squad reached.
"I have one principle regret coach
Randle said following the meeting. "That
is, the loyal supporters of East Carolina's
championship season will not have their
Randle story
is premature
Contrary to an Associated Press story
which appeared in Wednesday's edition of
'The News and Observer East Carolina
University Chancellor Leo Jenkins says
that "there is nothing official about a new
five year contract for Head Football Coach
Sonny Randle
According to the ECU Sports
Information Office, an official announce-
ment will be made at a banquet honoring

nignt, December 3, at Chancellor Jenkins'
home.
well-deserved opportunity to take a bowl
trip. I'm sure they will be disappointed,
but I'm also sure they will support the
decision of a team they have backed so
enthusiastically. We had a large number
of area fans who had already indicated
tremendous interest in a post-season
bowl. I thank them and the squad thanks
them
"I was sorry to see that some of my
statements were misinterpreted by bowl
officials Randle continued. "I don't
recall issuing an ultimatum. We were
anxious for a final decision before the

season.
team went home for Thanksgiving. It
would have been difficult for the players
to be kept in suspense for another week
when our season ended last week
"We had a fantastic season and I am
proud of this squad to a man. We had a
lot to prove when the season opened and
we showed what kind of team we are
The next day, following notification by
East Carolina officials, the Tangerine
Bowl extended an invitation to U. of
Florida. Florida announced that they
would accept.
In discussing the rationale of the
Tangerine Bowl decision, Athletic Director
Stasavich offered this explanation.
"The biggest thing was attendance.
Attendance is what they are after said
Stasavich. "They were after a school from
Florida, either Tampa or U. of Florida, or
possibly a Southeastern Conference
school
"I was talking to the bowl officials
continued Stasavich. "I don't think they
were really after us-they just wanted us
as a second choice
Last season the Pirates were also in
line for a Tangerine Bowl bid, only to be
passed over. The situation was very
similar this year.
"Just letting us wait and not giving us
any answers until they found out what
they wanted-really, we've got too much
pride for mat stated Stasavich.
