Pulp plant on Tar River
Brown fears polluting industry
By JAC VERSTEEG
Special to Fountainhead
Dr. Robert M. Brown, a professor with
the School of Education, claims that a
pulp mill or other heavily polluting
ind'istry may soon move into the
Greenville area.
Dr. Brown lives on a small farm on the
Tar River, outside of Grimesland, adjacent
to land owned by State Senator, Vernon
White. Dr. Brown learned that an
anonymous nominee, representing a large
corporation, has taken an option on 500
acres of White's farm for $10,000. If the
corporation decides to buy, they will pay
White in excess of $500,000.
Concerned about possible damage to
his farm from heavy industr Brown began
a campaign to discover the option on
White's farm, and what type of plant they
intended to build. He first called Senator
White, but White refused him any
information other than that he had received
an option.
"Because I could obtain no inforamtion
from Mr. White said Brown, "I turned to
the Pitt County Development office where
Mr. James R. Home, director, gave no
information and referred me to the regional
office of the Division of Commerce and
Industry, located in Washington. There,
Mr. Milan Muzinich gave me no
information and referred me to the State
Office headed by Mr. Thomas B.
Jenkins asked
to reevaluate
board decision
By DARRELL WILLIAMS
News Editor
Several members of the Reviews Board,
along withSGA Treasurer Mike Ertis, asked
Chancellor Leo Jenkins, today, to
reevaluate a Feb. 18 Review Board
decision which he reversed on the advice
of ECU Attorney Advisor David
Stevens. This action was taken by Review
Board members in an effort to have the
disputed decision reinstated by Jenkins.
"We feel that the authority of the
Review Board has been greatly diminished
by this reversal the Review Board
members stated, "Dr. Jenkins' arrival at
the reversal decision was based solely
upon the legal opinion of Attorney Advisor
Stevens without consideration to the
Review Board's opinion. This reversal has
stripped the Review Board of its "final
authority to interpret this constitution and
the laws passed under its authority
The Feb. 18 Review Board decision
concerned the validity of two bills
appropriating funds to the SGA Cabinet
and Executive Council. SGA Treasurer
Ertis refused to sign the bills, which
allowed SGA President Bill Bodenhamer to
spend more money appropriated in the
SGA Cabinet's miscellaneous funds,
because the Cabinet had not approved this

Brought on. Broughton sent a represent-
ative to see me, a Mr. Bruce Strickland,
Jr. Mr. Strickland also told me nothing
except that a plant was to be located there
and it was none of my business. He
assured me that the Federal Government,
through the Environmental Protection
gency, would look after me and the
river. He told me this four times, which
was a clear danger signal to me
Brown went on to say, that "The
corporation for whom the nominee has the
option is reputably Boise Cascade and the
plant will be some type of heavy industry,
either paper or metals
Every organization and official 'uizzed
by Dr. Brown - all existing to serve the
public - refused him information.
What is happening here? This
reporter's letter to Senator Vemon White,
informing that Dr. Brown has accused him
of harming his constituents for personal
gain, remained unanswered. However,
White did call Dr. Brown to complain that
he was not a liberty to divolge any facts
about his pending deal and, in Brown's
words, would not "hassle" with student
inquiry.
An official to the Regional Develop-
ment Institute asked to remain anonymous
after an interview. This source confirmed
the fact that Senator White's property had
been optioned, but went on to say that he
had no idea which corporation heid that
ootion. This official then said that 500
acres was not enough to build a pulp mill,
and anyway, pulp mills are no longer the
polluters they once were. He claimed that
Federal pollution standards were adhered
to so strictly that the water would be just a
as clear as before, and the air, just as
clean.
However, Mr. Ray S. Taylor, of the N.C.
Water and Air Resources, who holds a
Masters Degree in wood and paper
sciences, said that 100 acres would be
enough land to build a pulp mill and that
water down stream from a pulp mill, or
industry, would be given a "C"
classification, that is, suitable for
secondary contact such as boating and
fishing, but not primary contact such as
swimming. Furthermore Taylor said, that
the odor of a pulp mill in Grimesland
would "definitely be noticable in
Greenville
Pressing the search further, I made an
appointment with Mr. James R. Home of
the Pitt County Development Commission.
This appointment was cancelled and
another was requested. His secretary
said, "Mr. Home will have no comment
When I complained that he did not even
know the question, she said, "I think he

Information is being withheld from Dr.
Brown, from me, and from the people of
the Greenville area. Senator White is up
for re-election in November, and Dr. Brown
has entered the race to oppose him. His
decision to run came directly as a result of
his first hand experience that "Government
is no longer responsive to the people
DR. ROBERT M. BROWN
Before any ballots are cast, and before
the people of Pitt County pay James Home
another month's salary, some fair
questions should be answered.
Are we to have a pulp mill in Pitt
County? Are public officials withholding
information from those they exist to
serve? Write these people and find the
answers for yourself, if you can!

"Women have no experience voting.
But, said Justice Clark, neither do men
who reach 21 and are automatically
allowed to vote This fact supporting the
woman's suffrage movement was one of
several interesting comments favoring
women's voting rights which Peggy
Blanchard uncovered when she did a study
of women's status in North Carolina.
Her "booklet Woman's Suffrage, The
Equal Rights Amendment, Equal Pay for
Equal Work, And Other Such Revolution-
ary Ideas: A Survey of the Status
of Women in North Carolina, was
published in February. She began
research in September 1973 and completed
writing the booklet during the Christmas
holidavs.
Blanchard is the Human Resources
Director of the State Board of the League
of Women Voters. At the national level of
this organization the ERA (Equal Rights
Amendment) was the primary concern.
The North Carolina State Board of the
League of Women Voters felt the need to
tell women about their status in North
Carolina. She was asked to gather
information and thus began work on the
booklet.
According to Blanchard, the status of
women in this state is "pretty bad She
feels that women do not understand what
is going on in legal aspects. They don't
understand what happens if they go into
court. Also, they don't understand
problems with credit.
While compiling the study, Blanchard
found some laws that should be
passed. Such a law is the "equal pay for
equal work" legislation. There is no state
law regarding equal pay for equal
work. Additionally she feels that there
should be a law regarding credit.
The purpose of the booklet was
basically to educate people about the
status of women. When the ERA comes up
again in i975 people will have something
to document support for it. Blanchard's
booklet offers support for the ERA.
"Women would have greater responsi-
bility under ERA. The ERA would not
make women change their lifestyle. It
would offer a viable alternative said
Blanchard.
After doing the study, Blanchard can't
PEGGY BLANCHARD
say exactly what the role of women is. She
feels that politically, women in
North Carolina are a little slower. How-
ever, they are "trying harder

include one which states that if a woman
Early quarter system considered for 1975-76
By DAVID GLASGOW
Staff Writer
In an attempt to resolve the problems
surrounding one ECU student calendar,
mainly late termination of Spring quarter
and incompatibility with other state
university schedule's, the Calendar
Committee, which is under the direction of
the Faculty Senate, recently considered an
early quarter system to be implimented in
the 1975-76 academic year.
In the event the "Energy Crisis"
persists an alternate Winter Quarter was
also proposed.
In order to 'feel the pulse' of students
and faculty, ballots were placed in the
professor's boxes and displayed in the
Student Union for students.
The results of the student vote taken
last week are as follows. 89 against, 31
for the Early Quarter calendar; 96 against,
22 for the Alternate Winter Quarter.
Dr. Helen Steer, chairwoman of the
Calendar Committee is withholding the
results of the Faculty vote until
Wednesday, March 20, when her
committee is scheduled to reconvene.
In any event, the 1974-75 school
calendar has already been established and
any alternations of the present system
would not, could not, take effect until the
1975-76 academic year.
QUARTER SYSTEM
To many people the solution to East
Carolin's calendar woes lies in the
abandonment of the Quarter system and
switching to the Semester system.
Twice in the last ten years the
Quarter-Semester option has been
presented to the Faculty Senate and twice,
by close margins, defeated. Dr. Steer
feels that the question will resurface
"pretty soon" in the Faculty Senate.
According to Gibert Kennedy,
President of the Student Union and
student representative to the Calendar
Committee, and Dr. Steer, the procedure
involved in implimenting the Semester
system, would be the presentation of a
Faculty Senate supported resolution to the
Board of Governor's in whose hands the
final decision would rest.
SGA tax debts total $6,998
By SUSAN QUINN
Staff Writer
The SGA will pay an estimated
$6,998.93 in taxes this year according to
SGA treasurer Mike Ertis. Ertis announced
to the legislature Monday that because of a
taxing technicality concerning the SGA
refrigerator business a requested investi-
gation of the Internal Revenue Service
discovered that a leasing revenue must be
paid by the SGA. Ertis said that the tax
has been paid out of refrigerator funds.
The legislature tabled a bill that would
appropriate $250 to the committee of the
Black Arts Festival. The bill was tabled
because some of the legislators felt the
money could be appropraited by the
cabinet's funds since Minority Affairs
chairman, Maurice Huntley was asking for
the appropriation.
The legislature also recommitted a bill
entitled "No Workee No Payee The bill
was given this title by Dr. Jack Thornton
of Economics Department. The bill, which
was introduced by legislator Rick Gilliam,
would create regulations of payment of
salaries through the Student Fund
Accounting Office. Such regulations
would provide for the payment of salaries
on the last day of the month and 16th day
of the month, after the work has been
completed rather than the first day of the
month, before the work has been
done. The legislature felt that the bill
should be considered more closely and
recommitted it.
It was announced that screening for
three day student legislature vacancies
and one Garrett dorm vacancy will be held
Monday at 3:45 p.m. in room 308.
Andy Schmidt and Doug Benton were
accepted as new legislators.

then her residency immediately changes to
the state of her husband.
"This could be tricky she noted, "if a
female student loses in-state residency
because of marriage it would effect tuition
costs in state supported schools
In reference to the ERA and "Women's
Liberation Blanchard thinks "that some
women that might step further get turned
off by the "Women's Liberation"
movement. Women need to be aware of
theri choice, but she "personally dislikes
the stridency of the women's liberation
movement She identifies closer with the
ideas of Betty Friedan than she does the
ideas of Lucianne Goldberg. (Both women
spoke on campus during Women's
Awareness Week last year.) However, she
does not like Friedan's method. "Women
can progress in a calmer manner
Traditional ideas about the status of
women have changed very little. The

housework concept still exists in the
statutes and in belief. In the sense of

observed that it takes "a very strong man

A classical guitarist, Dr. Mario Abril, is

March 21.
By JIM KYLE
Special to Fountainhead
"The House of Representatives
impeachment process (which is now in
progress) can be compared to a grand jury
hearing according to Dr. Tinsley E.
Yarbrough. "The House must gather
evidence to decide if there is 'probable
cause' for impeachment
Under the Constitution, the President
may be impeached for "treason, bribery or
other high crimes and misdeameanors
"I feel that this means only for violating
some aspect of criminal law says Dr.
Yarbrough who is an associate professor
of political science and considered an
expert in Constitutional law.
"Some leading scholars take a broader
view on impeachable crimes Dr.
Yarbrough says. "They would include
political crimes, such as attempts to
subvert the constitutional system or
throwing the Presidency into disrespect
Dr Yarbrough believes that the House
"now has probable cause to support
impeachment - but maybe not
conviction He says, however, that
President Nixon "probably won't be
impeached
Executive Privilege
There is no way to predict when the
House may vote on impeachment
according to Dr. Yarbrough. He believes
that the Republicans would like to get the
vote over with and that the Democrats
would like to make the vote as near to the
November elections as possible.
Dr. Yarbrough explains executive
privilege as the privilege "to withhold
information which the President believes,
in the public interest, should be kept
confidential
Executive privilege is not in the
Constitution but Nixon says that it flows
from separation of powers. He claims that
each branch of government has the right to

confidentiality.
The courts disagree on this
interpretation, according to Dr. Yarbrough.
They say that it is an "evidentiary
privilege" like the attorney-client or
doctor-patient relationship and that the
court has the right to decide whether it will
accept the claim of executive privilege.
On the question of whether the House
judiciary committee will be able to obtain
grand jury evidence from the Watergate
trials, Dr. Yarbrough says that he has "no
confident position he says, however,
that the evidence "may eventually get to
the House
Cruelty to animals receives
more protest than Vietnam
Letters, telegrams and telephone calls
continue to pour in on the Pentagon and
Congress protesting the Army and Air
Force experiments on hundreds of beagles
to test pollutant gases.
The Air Force Times reported in
November that the volume of protest is
"the greatest inspires by any subject since
Truman sacked MacArthur" and is "more
mail than the commitee (House Armed
Services Committee) received on the
subject of the Vietnam War
Congressman Les Aspin of Wisconsin
who first drew public attention to the
experiments in November received from an
anonymous Pentagon source a copy of the
minutes of a Pentagon meeting in which
the public outcry: was noted. The
minutes stated in part: "To illustrate the
real sensitive nature of animal research
DoD (Department of Defense) has received
some 30,000 letters which were sent in
response to a newspaper article on the use
of Beagles; more than any received in past
history for a controversial event
The Pentagon minutes also noted that
"The Deputy Director attended a viewing of
a film on the head injury program at Walter
Reed and many scenes of animals were cut
in order to avoid any potential
embarrassment to DoD
In a statement that grossly
underestimated public outrage about
animal experiments, Col. William A.
Augerson, who oversees the experimental
work of the Army, Navy and Air Force from
the Pentagon, said in January that because
of the public outcry the number of animals
people regard as "pets" would be reduced
and "other less popular animals can be
subsituted, like swine or goats
As this report went to press, SAR Inc.
was polling members in New York City and
nearby eastern cities to find out how many
would be willing to make a one-day trip to
protest, in front of the Pentagon,
experiments performed on animals by the
armed services.
Dr. Abril was born in Havana,
Cuba. He began the study of piano and
violin, as well as music theory and
literature at a very early age. Still in his
teens, he took part in the ill-fated Cuban
Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961. He was
captured, and during his 22 month
imprisonment met the well known Cuban
guitarist Hector Garcia, also a political
prisoner. Garcia became AbrH's teacher,
and for several years after their release
from prison, the two musicians worked
together. Later, Abril studied guitar under
the renowned English virtuoso Julian
Bream. Abril's academic accreditation
includes a degree in guitar from the
University of Albuquerque, New Mexico,
and a Ph.d. degree in music theory from
the Florida State Unviersity School of
Music.
He has performed extensively in the
United States and abroad. The Toronto

Globe and Mail calls his performance:

Free Press remarked: "He brought to the
stage a knowledge of communication with
an audience .the unmistakeable air of
the professional musician - public
performer The Sarasota Journal claim-
ed: "Flawless, exquisite playing He has
also been featured on television and radio
in North America and Enaland.
After several years on the faculty of
Florida State University School of Music,
Dr. Abril has been appointed to the guitar
and music theory faculty of the University
ofTennessee at Chattanooga, Department
of Music.
In addition to his concert, Dr. Abril will
have informal workshops to answer
questions and discuss classical guitar.
Everyone is invited to participate in this
discussion.
There is no charge for the concert and it
is open to the public.
Paper recycler located here
Dr. Howard Dawkins, coordinator at the
Eastern Carolina Sheltered Workshop, and
Mr. Gene Higson, workshop director and
coordinator of the Workshop's Paper
Recycling Project, met with Professor
Edith Webber and Professor James LeRoy
Smith and located a paper collection bin
just behind the cafeteria near Joyner
Library.
The collection bin was placed through
the cooperative efforts of some 150
members of the administration, faculty
and staff. $54.00 was collected toward the
$150.00 cost for the construction of the
bin; it is now available to the population of
ECU for the depositing of clean paper
waste. Magazines, old newspapers, card-
board, unwanted paper of any kind which
is free from contaminations other than
printing ink, etc. can be deposited.
The Workshop is a non-profit
organization aiding in rehabilitation and
any profit realized from the recycling
project will be used to cover the costs of
collection, and if substantial enough, to
support Workshop programs. The Green-
ville Jaycees and The League of Women
Voters are helping to publicize the
recycling project and nine collection bins
have been located at various places
throughout the city so that citizens can
intergrate with their regular travel the fruits
of what we hope will be the development of
regular paper conservation habits. Every-
one is urged to keep a box for recyclable
paper and to empty it regularly in one of
the bins.
The population at ECU will find the
container accessible by car (hopefully
those close enough will walk or use

bicycles!); please consider joining the
effort. One ton of recycling paper saves 17
full-grown trees.
Anyone who is interested in making a
financial contribution to further defray the
cost of the bin on campus may send a
check to Prof. Smith, Philosophy
Department (made to East Carolina
Sheltered Workshop Recycling Project).
This seems to be one project where there
are a multiplicity of good and the support
of the entire ECU community is
solicited. The location, selected by
Vice-Chancellor for Business Affairs
Clifton Moore, should be convenient for
most of us, although the people located on
Charles Street might find the Pitt Plaza
location more convenient.

Solzhenitsyn wants Russian freedom of expression
By HELENA WOODARD
Staff Writer
"America. If your heart aint in it, then
get your a- out of it This bit of bumper
sticker rhetoric is sported scantily across
the nation on the vehicles of right-wing
anti-communist extremists. But, ironical-
ly it is quite synonymous to communistic
policies, as was proven recently by the
ouster of Novelist Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
Perhaps no one can equate their love
for any nation to Solzhenitsyn's love for
the Soviet Union. "All my life is here- the
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
homeland. I listen only to its sadness. I
write only about it That explains why
Solzhenitsyn vehemently opposed the
western publication of his manuscripts.
European and U.S. publishers often
translated incorrectly some of the details
of his works. Angered Soviet officials
further alienated from their ranks their
greatest writer of prose, thus thwarting
Solzhenitsyn's greatest wish - to reach the
masses of his homeland.
Solzhenitsyn received a degree in math
and physics from the Unviersity of Rostov
in 1941. He graduated from artillery
school and joined the army. In 1942, he
was sent to the front and twice decorated
after commanding a battery at
Leningrad. Solzhenitsyn and a friend
carelessly exchanged letters about how
badly Stalin was managing the war. Their
letters were seized, and Solzhenitsyn was
imprisoned in Moscow.
For eight years, Solzehnitsyn gathered
mental writing experiences from day to day
encounters in various labor camps. His
wife, Natalya, at his own urging, divorced
him and remarried. After Solzhenitsyn's
release from prison in 1953, she divorced
again and remarried Solzhenitsyn. His
incredible memory harbored details of
camp life which embittered him and gave
him first hand experience from Stalin's
cruelty. "The First Circle "Cancer
Ward "One Day in the Life of Ivan
Denisovich and "Arkhipelay Gulag" grew
from those experiences.
"No one can bar the road to truth, and
to advance its cause I'm ready to accept
even death If he stood and shouted out
the inhuman repressiveness of Stalin's
regime - of the regime which still existed -
inflicted on the devastated masses, then at
the most, only a couple of hundred people
might hear him. But if he transcribed his
literary talents in the hopes of publishing
them, perhaps he could reach millions.
"Free speech is the first requirement
for the health of every society, including
ours wrote Solzhenitsyn. The only work
which was published, "One Day in the Life
of Ivan Denisovich"), was subjected to
government censorship and Solzhenitsyn
was made to look like a traitor in light of
the soldiers who had lost their lives in the
war. The book was published in 1962
under the orders of Khrushchev for his own
purposes.
"The First Circle" portrayed the hellish
life under Stalin in 1948. The title from
"First Circle" was derived from Dante's
"Inferno" where the first circle of hell is
inhabited by Homer. Socrates, and Plato,
all too valuable to be thrown in the pit - but
were forced into confinement.
"Cancer Ward" was based on
Solzhenitsyn's own bout with cancer
which he developed while imprisoned.
The tumor was later arrested. The hospital
in "Cancer Ward" was a microcosm of a
sick Soviet society.
In November, 1969, The Ryazan Branch
of Union Writers yielded to party pressure
and expelled Solzhenitsyn from the
Writers' Union for "actively using the
bourgeois anti-Soviet press for anti-Soviet
propanganda The Union charged that his
novels, "The First Circle" and "Cancer
Ward" "threw mud on the motherland
The expulsion deprived Solzhenitsyn of
ever having his works published by a
Soviet editor and of the freedom to
establish residence anywhere in the Soviet
Union. The ouster was approved by the
Politburo.
Then, in 1970, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature
to the renewed anger of Soviet
officials. He declined to pick up his Nobel
Prize in Stockholm for fear of not being
allowed to return. To him, western exile
was "spiritual castration But the
inevitable befell Solzhenitsyn when
"Arkhipelay Gulag" was smuggled to the
West for publication without his
knowledge or consent.
"Gulag" was an account of the terroism
of Lenin's and Stalin's regimes - a
reminder of how unf ree Soviet society was
and still is. Solzhenitsyn had threatened
to publish five sequels to "Gulag" abroad
dealing with repression under Khrushchev
and Leonid Brezhnev if arrested. His
works were banned by the Kremlin and had
been circulating in Russia by hand-copied
samizdat - the underground press. The
manuscripts were done by hand and
typewriter since mechanical reproduction
is illegal.
"When you have robbed a man of
everything, he's no longer in your
power. He is free again In February,
1974, the Soviet news agency Tass
announced that Solzhenitsyn had been
stripped of his citizenship by a decree of
the Supreme Soviet and deported for
"systematically performing actions that
are imcompatible with being a citizen of
the U.S.S.R He was flown without prior
knowledge of destination to Frankfurt,
Germany. His host in Germany was a
friend and fellow Nobel Prize Winner.
Novelist Heinrich Boll. Solzhenitsyn was
one of only two citizens who had ever been
forcibly exiled from the Soviet Union
abroad. The other was Leon Trotsky.
The deportation of the author had its
advantages to the Kremlin. For treason in
the Soviet Union, death is the maximum
punishment. Other forms include impri-
sonment, hard labor, and torture. Nixon-
Brezhnev talks are in store for the
spring. The future of detente is at stake
and the United States and Russia plan a
space link-up project in 1975. Our
administration was muted. Henry Kiss-
inger stated that "Solzhenitsyn would be
welcome to settle in the United States"
and that "our constant view has been that
the necessity for detente does not reflect
approbation of the Soviet domestic
structure
Thus, between the United States'
preservation of detente, the West's hasty,
incorrect translations, and the Soviet
Union's propagandist policies of literary
censorship, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's
ingenious contributions stand to collect
centuries of rust from the heavy iron
curtains of communist Russia before
being revealed to his beloved fellow
countrymen.
Solzhenitsyn now resides temporarily
in Switzerland, and according to a recent
Newsweek report, he released a new
philosophical message which shook the
ranks and files of Western democracy.
"Whatever replaces communism, it will not
be anything Western. Democracy in its
last decline,has no ethical foundation and
consists only of parties and social classes
engaged in a conflict of interests noth-
ing higher
What Solzhenitsyn wants for the Soviet
Union is not a change from
authoritarianism which he condones, but
freedom of expression for all people and a
renunciation of Marxism and industrial-
ism. His utopianistic society would thrive
on the basic goodness of mankind - "a
land of peasant, wisdom, religious faith,
four-legged horse power and two-story
buildings Solzhenitsyn's latest barrage
of Utopian logic only served to alienate him
from other leading Soviet dissidents.
Solzhenitsyn, for the time, resides
(with his unique government), on neutral
grounds. How long will he remain the man
without a country - the many nobody
wants? His denunciation of the Western
world embarrassed some intellectuals and
baffled some others. Western supporters
worried that his publications might be
"undermined" by publishers because of
his beliefs. According to Newsweek
(March 18, 1974), President Nixon
wondered if Solzhenitsyn was "to the right
of Barry Goldwater to which Henry
Kissinger replied that he was "to the right
of the czars Wonder if that U.S. Senator
still wants to make Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
an honorary American citizen?

Wishing luck
With the SGA elections over, Fountainhead wishes both the 1974-75 officers and the
student body luck for next year.
Our experiences with this year's SGA should serve as warnings to the ECU
community in the next year. SGA President-elect Lucas has mentioned his desire to cut
down the excessive bureaucracy which was built up this year, whittling down the cabinet
that inspired so much anti-Bodehmaner criticism.
FLEA MARKET
Fountainhead hopes for more. We saw this year's executive change from a fairly
reasonable person with a few ideas to a near-complete autocrat, with accusations and
threatened impeachments hitting left and right. We watched the SGA become a giant
flea market of appropriations with the general philosophy that "I know what's good for
you Students were, in effect, bought off on the premise that buses and a byzantine
cabinet organization could replace effective student lobbying and an SGA the student
body could approach sans appointment.
It didn't work. Students got their buses, and hot line, and bike path plans, but in the
process developed a new cynicism toward student government. Too many lines about
"working closely with the Administration on that" made students wonder exactly who
their SGA was angled toward - the days of student-Administration conflict are perhaps
thankfully over, but students felt that their SGA had been sold down the river.
IDEALIST AND CYNIC
In short, the last year established an SGA that, for all its efforts to maintain
official communications, lost much contact with the real live student body. It wasn't so
much lost by action as by atmosphere, but too much bureaucracy, bu "puffed-upness"
and ex cathedra speeches and taking oneself far too seriously. In student government,
as in everything, one needs to look down on the office and the situation from a distance;
with so many things of importance in this world, the most a student newspaper or a
student government can hope to do is point things in the right direction. How totally
absurd and laughable it is to pretend to be all-important or more official or with better
contacts than one's peers, or to make a student office into a miniature national
government. Pemaps it takes a mixture of idealist and cynic to produce a good SGA
officer.
We wish next year's SGA officers luck and the gift to view themselves from far-off, as
well as the wisdom to avoid the mistakes of the 1973-74 SGA. We wish the student body
the ability to scrutinize and demand and help the officers make the SGA more than a
large placebo.
STUDENT FORUM
And, speaking of student voices, we invite students to put their favorite SGA
people and publications editors on the spot tonight at 7:30 in room 201 of the Student
Union. The student forum being held tonight is an opportunity to clear up questions
about everything that's been bothering you since September - if you can't make it, call in
questions at 758-6262 or 758-6263.
Again, best wishes to Bob Lucas, Cindy Domme, Bill Beckner and Vivian Williams.
Picking up and reorganizing after this year will be a major chore and a chance to return
the SGA to the people who pay for it, and we extend all our good luck to you; take care.

Nixon opposes probe
m
m
mmwmmmmm
By JACK ANDERSON
WASHINGTON - President Nixon
has told aides he will fight impeachment
with all the power he can bring to bear.
He made a public promise that he
would cooperate with the House Judiciary
Committee, which is conducting the
impeachment inquiry. But privately, he
has made it perfectly clear that he will
oppose and obstruct the probe.
He sees no reason to court the
committee members, he has told
associates, because those who oppose
him will vote against him no matter how
conciliatory he is.
A few Republican partisans on the
committee are trying to help the President
impede the inquiry. The senior Republi-
can, Michigan Rep. Edward Hutchinson
allegedly asked a young GOP staff
member, Sam Garrison, to obstruct the
impeachment proceedings.
This, at least, is what Garrison has told
other members of the staff. Hutchinson,
however, has denied it.
Meanwhile, many committee members
feel they have been shut off from the
impeachment investigation. They fear the
evidence will be spoon-fed to them.
They have tried to bring pressure on
committee chairman Rep. Peter Rodino,
D-N.J to open the committee files to the
other members. The President's lawyers,
however, have privately opposed such a
move. Even their limited cooperation
hinges on the issue of confidentiality.
So the first battle, before the
committee starts serious impeachment
proceedings, will be over who gets access
to the information. And there is a
controversy over how the information will
be verified.
Lie Detector Turnabout: The lie
detector has been a favorite White House
weapon. The plumbers, as the former
White House gumshoes were called, used
it indiscriminately to search for my
sources.
They suspected Yeoman Charles
Radford, for example, of leaking White
House secrets to rne. Without warning
they strapped him into a lie detector and
subjected him to cross examination.
They gave him four lie detector tests
before they finished with him. Instead of
finding he had slipped documents to me,
however, they discovered he had sneaked
White House documents to the Joing
Chiefs of Staff.
Other suspected sources were also put
through lie detector tests. But now,
ironically, lie detectors are being used
against the White House. Two Watergate
witnesses, ex-Attorney General Richard
Kleindienst and Gordon Strachan, another
former White Hosue aide, also were asked
to repeat their statements, with a lie
detector.
Now the special prosecutors are trying
to persuade two of President Nixon's
closest associates, his personal secretary,
Rose Mary Woods, and his appointments
secretary, Stephen Bull, to submit to lie
detector tests. So far, they have refused.
For the White House suddenly has be
come more wary of lie detectors. And the
nresident is being as secretive as ever.
m
The Three Musketeers: President
Nixon's constant, closest adviser these
days is press secretary Ron Ziegler. No
one spends more time with the President
than Ziegler. They begin with morning
coffee together. Throughout the day,
Ziegler is in and out of the oval
office. When the President visits his
seaside estates, Ziegler invariably is at his
side.
Two other people have easy, regular
access to the President. One is his chief
of staff, Gen. Alexander Haig. The other is
his bosom friend, Bebe Rebozo.
The three musketeers - Ziegler, Haig
and Rebozo - are all for Nixon. He has
made them his inner circle more for their
loyalty than their ability. Not one of them,
for example, understands politics. This
troubles Republican leaders who have
complained privately that the President
should be listening to experienced
politicians.

March 7 was the deadline to register for
one of the "Executive Officer" positions.
On that afternoon, two people had filed to
run for positions, one for president and the
other for vice president. For this reason,
the filing date has been extended until
April 11. The Administration has granted
this extension in hopes that more interest
would be shown from the students
concerning their elections.
The MRC is your organization, serving
the men's campus of East Carolina
University. This organization is by no
means a "power structure but it must be
a group of concerned students that unite
together to make an effective lobbying

are willing to work for them. At least,
VOTE!
In case you do not believe in the MRC,

David Noble
Candidate for MRC President
Need funds
To Fountainhead:
On March 8, when it was first learned
that Head Basketball Coach Tom Quinn
had been relieved of his duties, the
feelings of the school community were
varied. Many expresssed feelings of
delight - to them, this was a move the
school should have made long ago. To
some, there was a feeling of relief - maybe
now ECU could bring in a new coach with
fresh ideas and with that determination
and ambition needed to motivate ECU to a
more prominent role in basketball, on a
conference and a regional basis. Finally,
there was a feeing of optimism - for so
long ECU has played in the shadows of the
Davidsons and the Furmans; moreover,
ECU has long been overlooked on a
state-wide basis, with all attention being
placed on N.C. State, Carolina and Duke,
and we have been viewed as the junior
circuit, the s& d-lot league, the
insignificant others, etc.
We felt that by firing Quinn and by
hiring some big-name coach who could
immediately build a successful basketball
program - that this (combined with our
present success in the other sports -
football, wrestling, track, etc.) would serve
as the motivating force necessary to propel
ECU into the mainstream of big-time
college athletics - namely, the Atlantic
Coast Conference.
However, our delight, our relief, our
optimism were totally destroyed when it
was learned for the first time what may
serve as the prime factor for Quinn's lack
of success. It is not his inability to coach -
he is an intelligent, capable person who is .
respected by his rival coaches within and fa CRISIS ?
beyond the Southern Conference. His
ability to get along with his players may be
questioned, but this cannot be regarded as
the sole determinent of his lack os
success. We feel that the problem rests
more with the administration and their
apparent attempt to de-emphasize the
entire basketball program in contrast to
the increased emphasis of our one "major"
sport, football.
When we became aware, for the first
time, of the lack of funds allotted for
basketball (in salaries and recruiting
expenses) we actually became sympath-
etic for Quinn and expressed sorrow for
the many deragatory remarks made about
him over the years; for, the general
opinion now is that Quinn did as good if
not better a job than could be expected of
him, considering what he had to work
with.
Yet, Quinn never made a public
complaint of these inadequacies - instead,
he used what he had and made the best
use of them he could. He also took those
derogatory comments aimed at him while
at the same time continuing to hold his
head high. This in some way, we feel,
shows him to be a remarkable person who
deserves more credit than he was
mmmmmmmmmMmmummmmmmm
given. What we are trying to say is that
when the truth finally arises.it is too late to
do anything about it.
This letter should not be viewed as a
testimony to Coach Quinn; rather, it
should be viewed matter-of-fact I y as a
direct attack on the athletic program and
on the administration, in general.
If these two bodies wish for the athletic
future of ECU to remain as it presently is,
then they should continue to pump the
majority of the funds into the football
program and neglect our other
sports. Under these conditions, Dave
Patton is the logical replacement for Quinn
- there is no one else who would be willing
to enter the program under such deprived
conditions other than those who are
presently a part of the existing program.
We don't want this and the student
body doesn't (as evidence the poor
attendance at this past season's games).
The majority of the student body not
only wants but demands immediate,
recognizable changes in the adminis-
tration's relationship with the athletic
program. We do not propose a
de-emphasis of football (this would be
defeating our purpose), but we do propose
that an objective study of the needs and
wants of ALL sports programs be made
and that some effort be made to bring
these sports up to a level comparable to
football (in relation to number of players,
size of staff, operating and recruiting
expense, etc.).
Perhaps this can begin with basketball
by increasing the head coach's salary and
expenses so that he could at least compete
with other conference and area
coaches. Then, maybe we can go out and
talk to such big name coaches as Neil
McGeachy at Duke or Bill Gutheridge at
UNC. A coach of their ability would
immediately put ECU in a more favorable
position to recruit top high-school players.
Perhaps the change can be made by
giving Coach Welborne the funds needed
to compete with such wrestling powers as
Iowa State or Oklahoma St. Sure we are in
the Top 15 in the nation in wrestling, but
what's wrong with the Top 10? or the Top
5? or No. 1?
The important thing is that the changes
must come, especially if we are to
progress to the point where we meet the
requirements necessary for admission to
theACC. Is this not our ultimate goal? No
doubt the changes will be costly and
time-consuming. We are convinced the
money is available if our administration is
willing to exert the energy necessary to go
out and find it - we have too many alumni,
contributors and friends for this to hold us
back from reaching this goal.
Unfortunately, we may lack the needed
time if some type of action is not taken
immediately to alleviate this problem.
With each passing day the accomplish-
ments of this goal becomes more and
more difficult, so that sooner or later all
interest may be lost.
An impossible task, you say? Maybe
so, but all long journeys start with the first
step. To paraphrase the poet, "Tis better
to have tried and lost than never to have
tried at all
So, come on Administration, at least
show some effort to meet this
challenge. Don't be content with things as
they are. Strive for the heights. Reach for
the stars. Take that first giant step, with
full knowledge that we are backing you 100
percent. It may be the one step we need to
begin transforming our dreams into reality.

Stan Pratt

To Fountainhead:
I am writing this letter in response to
the excellent participation of the ECU
delegation at the annual NCSL last week. I
wish not only to recognize the delegation
or individuals for the awards that they
received, but to commend each delegation
member for representing ECU well; first as
an aware and interested delegation and
second as a united and friendly delegation.
As a Fountainhead reporter, the ECU
delegation made it possible for me to
travel with them as an observer. I would
like to thank them for making the trip
possible for me and also for the many
enjoyable times and learning experiences
that I was able to share with them.
The ECU delegation spent many hours
in preparing for the NCSL session and
received rewards from their fellow
delegations, but should also be praised by
their fellow students and faculty members
at ECU.
Sincerely,
Susan A. Quinn

fad ninety countries
Authority on China speaks here
John McCook Roots, foreign cor-
respondent who has visited and reported
on more than ninety countries throughout
the world, and who is one of the foremost
authorities on China, will be here on
Wednesday, March 20, at 8:00 p.m. to
speak under the auspices of the Student
Union Lecture Series Committee on the
subject, "Peking and Washington: The
Whirlwind Courtship The lecture will be
held in Wright Auditorium.
A descendant of American pioneers,
Roots was bom in the Yangtze River port
of Hankow - now part of the great
metropolis of Wuhan, 600 miles inland
from Shanghai - and spoke Chinese
before he spoke English. Schooled on the
mainland, he later went to Harvard
University, where he won the Washburn
Prize for history, was Crimson editor and
graduated with honors.
Returning to the Far East as a young
foreign correspondent for The New York
Times and American Newspaper Alliance,
he covered in depth the formative days of
the Chinese Revolution at its headquarters
in Canton. He was the first journalist to
interview Sun Yat-sen's successor,
General Chiang Kai-shek, and the famous
Soviet advisor, Mikhail Borodin, mentor of
Chou En-lai and Lin Piao of the rising
Chinese Communist Party. Borodin's
secretary, the then unknown Ho Chi Minh,
arranged his appointment with the
Russian. Later Chou En-lai was a guest in
the Hankow home of the Roots family.
John Roots has spent a third of his life
in Asia; a third in Europe, Africa and the
Middle East; and a third in the
Americas. He personally witnessed the
early honeymoon era of the Sino-Soviet
alliance, was in Stalin's Russia when it
was a training center for Chinese
Communist youth, and has three times
crossed Siberia along the Russian-Chinese
border. He has made a score of journeys
to Japan, India, and Southeast Asia; and
has travelled throughout Europe, Africa
and the Middle East. His Saturday Review
interview with Israel's Founder, David
Ben-Gurlon, revealing the war-time Prime
Minister's formula for Israeli withdrawal
and a Middle Fast settlement, made
headlines across the world. A profile on
Chinese Premier Chou En-lai appeared in
The Wall Street Journal and another in the
50th anniversary issue of Reader's Digest
in February, 1972.
Roots returned to China early in 1972
for a seven week stay. He is one of the few
Westerners who can compare the
pre-Communist society, which he knew in
his youth with the radically different
life-style of the People's Republic.
Having been Senior Editor of PACE
magazine, Roots has written for The
Atlantic Monthly, Asia, New Republic, The
Nation and other periodicals. On his 1972
visit to China, he represented The New
York Times, Associated Press, and Time
magazine.

spending as a whole.
The Feb. 18 Review Board decision concerning this matter states!
basically that "miscellaneous funds under the SGA Cabinet and Executive
Council may be requisitioned by any Cabinet member barring any
controversy among the Cabinet members concerning the requisition. If a
controversy does exist, however, a majority vote of the Cabinet members
would be required to requisition the funds This decision by the Review!
Board was then reversed by Chancellor Jenkins on the advice of Attorney?
Stevens on March 9.
Review Board members William Phipps, David Englert and Bruce
Silverman stated in a brief to Chancellor Jenkins that, "the reversal implies
that a distinct difference exists between the opinion of the Review Board and
the memorandum opinion from Attorney Advisor Stevens
This difference in opinion is as follows: Attorney Advisor Stevens'
opinion stated, "This opinion is in reference to the legal authority of the SGA
President to allocate funds SGA Attorney General Tom Clare's opinion
concerned not this but "spending the requisitions from the Student
Government Executive Council and the Student Government Cabinet
Because of this the Review Board members states, "we feel that Dr.
Jenkins should reevaluate all the information pertaining to the Review
Board's decision. In this evaluation we hope that he will consider his
decision and reinstate the Review Board's original decision
"We (the Review Board members) were pleased with the responsiveness
and interest of Dr. Jenkins concerning the controversy over the decision
stated Dave Englert. "He was extremely helpful in getting appointments
with concerned parties of the issue. Dr. Stevens, also was very considerate
in giving his time to listen to our side of the issue. And although we didn't
always agree, we have had very instructive sessions
Members of the Review Board and SGA Treasurer Mike Ertis plan to meet
with Chancellor Jenkins on March 19 to discuss and possibly clear up the
issue concerning the Feb. 18 Review Board decision.

A detector technology research project
rected by Dr. James Joyce of the ECU
nysics faculty has been completed.
The project was funded by the N.C.
oard of Science and Technology, which
anted funds to ECU and Duke University
r the testing of the tandem accelerator as
means of scanning, measuring and
cording trace elements in biological
jbstances.
The accelerator is a complex apparatus
hich induces charged particle beams for
!oms.
For the Joyce project, ECU installed an
ray spectrometer detector and an
radiation chamber on its tandem
xelerator, and computer devices and
rograms were developed to analyze the
ata.
With the assistance of several
udents, Dr. Joyce discovered the exact
leasurement of such trace elements as
hlorine, potassium, calcium, iron,
Dpper, zinc, bromine, and strontium in
amples of tap water and soy protein.
Dr. Joyce concluded that the tandem
xelerator offers a rapid multi-element
can with good 'sensitivity. Trace
'ement analysis has frequently been used

lentify poisons.
With the use of the tandem accelerator,
e said, detector technology can be
nportant in environmental pollution

1,500 projects to credit
Institute offers services
m
TYPING SERVICE: 758 2814.
The ECU Regional Development
Institute is entering its tenth year of
service with completion of approximately
1,500 projects to its credit.
To meet changing conditions,
flexibility has been essential to success,
says Thomas W. Willis, director of the
Regional Development Institute since its
inception. Flexibility has enabled the
Institute to shift emphasis in an effort to
stay with the demands made for
services. For example, a recent shift has
been from coastal land development to
aiding local enterpreneurs locate financial
assistance.
There has been little problem shifting
emphasis rapidly from one area to another
because of the wide range of
comprehensive services the Institute
offers. It is involved in community
development, business assistance, in-
formational services and special projects
which deal with other interests from time
to time. These services are made
available to the 32 counties of eastern
North Carolina.
"Implementation is the key word
Willis said. Institute philosophy has been
directed towards action and solution
rather than solving the problem on paper.
Willis is proud of the efforts in
community development. For example,
the Institute handled 35 projects in this
area from June, 1972 through July,
1973. Lenoir and Halifax counties were
aided in renovating their airport facilities,
and the Institute assisted state and
federal efforts to implement regional air
service between Beaufort, Greenville and
Raleigh.
The communities of Farmville and
Ayden received assistance in renovating
their business districts. Other commun-
ities were aided in funding water and
waste treatment systems large enough to
handle expected growth. The Institute
assisted Onslow and Lenoir counties in
locating and planning areas suitable for
industrial parks.
Fifteen "wet process" sites were
located for industries requiring at least
500,000 gallons of water per day for use in
processing or release of treated wastes.
North Carolina history recalls the use
of river boats and barges along the rivers
of the area. With this in mind, the
Institute helped to find 15 sites along
navigable rivers that could be used for
barge docking. These sites provide a total
of 20,000 acres for construction of
industrial and warehouse facilities.
The Institute recognizes that in an area
characterized by under-employment of
resources, small businesses can prove
instrumental to economic growth, Willis
says. In aiding persons desiring to open a
firm, but lacking capital or know how,the
first step is usually to determine the
potential market for the product or
service.
If the survey shows the product is
feasible, the Institute will then assist in
obtaining financing and in some cases
will produce and aid in managing a
prototype to show how it is done. An
example of prototype assistance is the
New East magazine. After seeing the
prototype, Eden Press of Edenton offered
to take over the magazine and publish it in
what has become a successful venture.
The Institute has offered assistance in
planning an ice skating rink in
Greenville. It has offered advice concern-
ing packing industries and fish
houses. Sites for marinas have been
located for interested persons.
The Institute's library, one of the
largest of its kind in the state, contains
abstracts and surveys which provide clues
to Eastern residents' wants and
needs. These abstracts give statistical
all federal funding for new hospital
projects, the statement analyzes the
environment, social and economic
benefits and costs which will be derived
from the hospital in Greenville.
The Institute has five full-time
development specialists who reflect the
philosophy of the Institute by their
training. They are not specialists in the
rMfc DIRECTOR of the Regional Development Institute attributes the institute's
success to flexibility.
breakdowns of information pertaining to
population, income, political and
religious affiliation and many other items
which provide an accurate picture of the
average citizen of a given area.
The Institute sponsors from four to
five conferences a year on various
specialized areas of interest. These
inferences provide a chance for
ousinessmen to learn new techniques as
well as changes in legal aspects of
business development. The Institute
recently sponsored a conference dealing
with how to follow the law in
dredginghow to dredge and keep within
the law rather than merely saying what
you couldn't do.
The special projects which the
Institute has undertaken have at times
dealt in other areas of interest.
Ten years ago, Minnesott Beach in
Pamlico County did not exist as a
town. With the Institute's assistance, the
town was drawn up on paper and carried
through conception. Today, Minnesott
Beach is a fully incorporated town that is
one of the largest in the county. It even
has an 18-hole golf course.
Other special projects have included
designing of brochures for "owns to
attract doctors and industry, a study of
the feasibility of raising eels for export
and the preparation of an environmental
impact statement for a new Pitt County
Hosptial.
The impact statement was prepared in
cooperation with ECU faculty members,
architects, engineers, environmentalists
andhospital authorities. Now required for
scholarly sense of the word, but instead
are specialists in finding solutions to
problems and making them work.
Willis, as director of the Institute,
reports directly to the Chancellor, Vice
Chancellor and Director of Development at
ECU. With this method of organization,
the Institute is able to make maximum
use of the available resources of ECU.
The Institute returns payment by
offering opportunities to ECU students
and faculty interested in regional
development. Several work-study stu-
dents work with the Institute and there are
full-time internships available for those
desiring practical field experience.
A new home will soon be ready for the
Regional Development Institute. Located
at First and Reade Streets in Greenville,
the building will provide a permanent
center for the Institute to coordinate its
activities.
Now under construction, the building
will be ready for occupancy in August. It
will include a 300 seat auditorium along
with conference rooms and office
space. The new center will afford the
opportunity of a permanent home for the
Regional Development Institute to plan
another ten years of growth.

According to East Carolina Athletic
Director Clarence Stasavich, a new head

The delay in naming a successor to
Tom Quinn was due to a few legal
problems stemming from the termination
of Quinn's contract.
Dave Patton, an assistant under Quinn
for two years, will probably be given the
job.

It has come to my attention that many people feel that a few members of
Fountamhead's sport's staff have maliciously maligned the East Carolina athletic
department in writings of last week.
Let me assure everyone that last week was not "Jump on the Athletic Administration
Week but we did exercise our verbal gymnastics by bringing out a few points which
could have been corrected. No right is more sacred than the right to voice one's opinion
At East Carolina we have a fine athletic department, from Athletic Director Clarence
Stasavich to Bill Cain and down the line of coaches. I have mounds of respect for these
people and I consider myself lucky to call them my friends. Everyone does their very best
and these athletic officials have helped build a dynasty in the Southern Conference
Along with many, I feel that the Southern Conference has declined within the last ten
years. I do not like to compare East Carolina University to other Southern Conference
institutions. We are just so far superior when you take an overall look at the total
programs.
Sonny Randle's team beat everyone's brains in and finished 7-0 in the conference for a
championship.
John Welborn's wrestlers dominated the conference as they have always done and
swept to a conference title.
Coach Ray Scharfs swimmers' performed a feat unprecedented in modem athletic
circles by sweeping 18 of 18 events in the Championship meet.
The soccer team, behind coaches Monte Little, Ed Wolcott and AI Thompson, started
slow but came on strong to finish second in the conference behind Appalachian State
The basketball team had a so-so season, but a disastrous time in the tournament in
Richmond.
The baseball team, golf team, tennis squad and outdoor track team are awaiting in the
wings to prove their conference supremacy.
I still do not like to compare the Pirates to other conference foes. The conference is
beginning to grow big ears, in other words, it's getting to be a little Mickey Mouse
East Carolina athletics are great, but the Bucs deserve better competition than what
the present conference can offer.
If our ambitions of joining the ACC are for real, then we are going to have to clear up a
few situations which Fountainhead expounded upon in last week's commentary
It appeared to us that the athletic administration had made a few mistakes and we felt
that these boo-boos needed to be publicized. Criticism makes people work a lot harder
So I say to the athletic department, "I'm glad that you didn't take it personally " and
remember, "the truth shall make you free
THE HAMMER
The number two appears to be the magic digit for Atlanta superstar Hank Aaron.
The Brave's slugger needs only two more round-trippers to eclipse Babe Ruth's
all-time record of 714 homeruns. Aaron also just needs to score two more runs to tie
Willie Mays' record of most total runs scored. Mays scored 2,062 in his 22 super years
and through Aaron's 20-year career he has crossed home plate 2,060 times
MORE STREAKS
Prior to the start of ABA warfare between the Indiana Pacers and the San Diego
Q's in Indiannapolis last week, a young lady, painted in green and quite naked, took the
opportunity to streak the length of the court.
Q's veteran play-by-play broadcaster Frank Sims was completely speechless for one
minute while on the air. When he came back to reality, all he could utter was, "I wonder
what's happening around the rest of the league
QUESTION AND ANSWER
What happens when you don't pay the exorcist?
You get repossessed.
' Showing an increasing tendancy to let
things slip away in the last inning, the East
Carolina baseball team lost two out of
three games last week.
Of the eight runs scored against the
Pirates in these contests, seven of them
were tallied in the final stanza.
Against the Blue Devils of Duke last
Wednesday at Durham, the Pirates took
a 2-1 lead into the bottom half of the ninth
inning. At this point Duke proved to be
rude hosts as they scored twice to win the
game 3-2.
The losing pitcher for ECU was Wayne
Bland. His record fell to 1-1.
Ronnie Leggett was the leading hitter
for the Pirates. He had a single and a
double and drove in a run in three trips to
the plate.
Duke converted two double plays to
thwart potential big innings for the Bucs.
Saturday afternoon the Pirates travelled
to Greenville, S.C for a Southern
Conference doubleheader with the Furman
Paladins.
In the first seven inning game, a
pitching dual developed between ECU'S
Dave LaRussa and Todd Brenizer of
Furman. LaRussa scattered three hits in
the six and one-third innings he worked,
before being lifted in favor of Bill Godwin
in the seventh. Godwin gave up a triple
and a single for one Furman run, the only
run of the game.
Brenizer, in hurling the 1-0 shutout
victory, allowed the Pirates only two
hits. Mike Hogan had a double in the
fourth and Bobby Harrison stroked a single
in the seventh.
The Pirates committed three errors in
the game, one by Staggs and two by Carl
Summerell. Two double plays were
completed to help make up for these
miscues.
The Pirates won the second game by a
6-4 margin, despite committing four errors
and allowing Furman four runs in the last
inning.
The Bucs got on the scoreboard in the
fourth inning.Hogan reached on a base on
balls, and Summerell followed with an
infield single. Another pass was issued to
Leggett, loading the bases. The desig-
nated hitter, Jack Elkins, came through
with a clutch single, driving in both Hogan
and Summerell. Leggett scored next on
catcher Rick McMahon's infield out, giving
the Pirates a 3-0 lead.
Another run was added in the sixth
when McMahon singled, Geoff Beaston
walked and Ron Staggs singled to drive in
McMahon.
Two runs in the top of the seventh gave
the Pirates a 6-0 lead.
Summerell led off the innings by teeing
off for a 360-foot home run. Harrison then
walked, stole second, and scored on a
single by Beaston.
Up until this time Buc pitcher Eddie
Clapp had not allowed a hit or
run. However, in the bottom half of the
seventh, Furman got their initial run,
thanks to two consecutive errors.
Clapp then gave up his first hit of the
game, a home run, and all of a sudden it
was 6-3. Two singles and still another
error made it 6-4, but fortunately the
Paladin rally died there.
This split gave ECU a 1-1 record in the
conference, while their overall mark fell to
3-4.
The Pirates met the Cavaliers of
Virginia Monday at Harrington Field,
kicking off a nine game homestand. At 3
p.m. Thursday the Tar Heels of North
Carolina, just returning from a Florida road
trip, invade Greenville. Single games are
scheduled for Saturday and Sunday.
Shippensburg State College (Pa.) wil�
provide the opposition.
Wheeler finishes 20th
The East Carolina University women's
swimmers travelled to University Park,
Pennsylvania this past weekend to
compete in the Women's National
Intercollegiate Swimming and Diving
Championships.
Coach Eric Orders' girls were six of 520
ladies competing to find the best women's
swimming team in the nation. Ninety-six
schools were represented at the
championship
Pirate senior diver Cindy Wheeler
finished 20th out of 59 competitors in the
one-meter diving event. Miss Wheeler
finished 36th out of 55 participants in the
three-meter diving.
East Carolina's Sue Bingham dived
very well and ended up 32nd in the
three-meter competition.
The 200 and 400-yard freestyle reiays
and the 400-yard medley relay (Linda
Smiley, Barbara Strange, Doris Conlyn,
and Beverly Osbom) swam their best times
of the season, but the calibre of
competition kept the Pirates out of the
finals.
Miss Smiley, a sophomore from
Daytona, Fla swam commendably and
finished 46th in the 50-yard butterfly and
49th in the 100-yard butterfly event.
Arizona State captured first place in the
championship meet as they brought 15
swimmers.
The University of Miami surprised
everyone as they finished second.
The Hurricanes brought only seven
swimmers, but all seven were on
scholarship.
Last year Miami finished nineteenth in
the meet.
The Pirate ladies concluded their
season with a 5-3 dual meet record.
Owens leads golfers
Sophomore Doug Owens shot rounds
of 77-71-71 to help lead the East Carolina
golf team to tenth place tie in the Plametto
Intercollegiate Golf Tournament which was
held in Orangeburg, S.C. The Pirates tied
the University of North Carolina.
Georgia Southern won the 22-team,
three-day tournament.
Other Pirate scores were Carl Bell
76-73-75, Tommy Boone 74-76-79,
Ail-American Eddie Pinnix recorded
rounds of 81-74-74, Jim Ward 78-78-76 and
Bebo Batts 76-77-77.
Coach Bill Cain thought that his team
performed well in the stiff competition.
Cain said, "I expected better scores from a
few individuals, but we will improve as the
season winds along
The golfers will next take on UNC-W
today at the Greenville Country
Club. Tee-off time is 1 p.m.
Buc netters postponed
East Carolina's scheduled tennis match
against UNC-W was postponed Saturday
afternoon due to wet ground.
The Pirates were scheduled to host
Atlantic Christian today on Minges tennis
courts at 2 p.m.

Hill places fifth in NCAA Tourney
By BRUCE ENQEL
Special to Fountainhead
Editor's Note: Engei covered the NCAA
wrestling tournament for the University of
Buffalo SPECTRUM, and submitted this
irticle at the invitation of Fountainhead's
Assistant Sports Editor.
AMES, IOWA-ECU 177-pounder Bill
Hill has been on the verge of greatness for
a long time�four years Southern
Conference Champ, four years N.C.
Collegiate Champ, as well as numerous
Open and Holiday titles. But all that
became small time stuff last week when
the senior from Norfolk, Va. took fifth in
the NCAA Tournament.
Becoming a national place winner is
something every wrestler works for and
dreams about, however, only a few ever
make the grade. For Hill, the dream came
true when he defeated Wisconsin's Ed
Vatch 6-2 in the third round of the
consolation bracket. "My teammates were
ill psyched out said the Pirate's first
lational place winner ever. (All other ECU
vrestlers were defeated in their first
natch.) "I think I've given them something
.o shoot for. It's not a faraway thing. I've
showed them it can be done
Vatch, an Olympic alternate in 1972,
was Hill's fifth opponent in two days. (He
would have two more matches the next
day). Hill is used to having a lot of
matches in a short peripd of time, having
been in eight tournaments this season
before the nationals. Hill came back to
Greenville with first place hardware six of
those eight times.
"Wrestling in major tournaments is the
only way we can get any competition
said Hill, lamenting the Pirates short and
weak dual meet slate. Hill feels that the
lack of top-notch competition definitely
retarded his development as an
athlete. Under the circumstances, it's a
tribute to his ability and rationality that he
could do so well without fully adequate
preparation. When you're a big fish in a
small pond, it pays to realize that the
ocean is full of sharks.
It took the very best to eliminate Hill
from the championship bracket. After
defeating Nebraska's Bill Hoffman and
Rutger's Steve Bonsai in the opening
round, the Pirate co-captain ran squarely
into Floyd 'Shorty" Hitchcock of
Bloomsburg (Pa.) State. Eventually
"Shorty" woi.ld win the tournament by
virtue of trvee pins and two lopsided
decisions, s kj walk off with outstanding
wrestler ho� tors.
A little background on Hitchcock is
only fitting. "Shorty" has the best upper
body on a man that I've ever seen or ever
hope to see. Last summer he competed in
the World University Games, defeating
Olympians John and Ben Peterson at the
trials. At the Games he took secondjosing
only to the U.S.S.Rs Levan Pediashville.
Since Dan Gable retired, Pediashville is
recognized as the best wrestler in the
world by most experts.
Hill gave Hitchcock a run for his
money, and even took him down once
before getting bulled to the mat and
pinned in the third period. Despite the fall,
it was as tough a match as "Shorty" had
throughout the tournament.
After the loss to Hitchcock, Hill
became eligible for the race for
consolation honors. Solid wins over
Northwestern's Scott Klippert and then
over Vatch assured him of at least sixth
place. Hill felt those two matches, his
most important, were his best of the
tournament. "I wasn't loose that first day
(Thursday). I was too psyched up and
couldn't wrestle well (against Hoffman and
Bonsai). Friday night I just looked at them
as dual meets and wrestled much better
Saturday Hill lost a bid for third place
when he couldn't handle the whizzer of
Bringham Young's Mark Hensen. Later
Hill salvaged fifth place with an exciting
come-from-behind victory over Ohio U's
K'rt Blank. Blank had Hill down by as
nr y as three points before Hill got a
reversaland near fall in the last minute.
In an age when wrestlers tend to be
spectacular in one aspect of the sport, or
rely heavily on just a few moves that they
have perfected, Hill seems to do
everything well, but nothing spectacularly.
He has a balanced repertoire of moves. By
his own admission, "I can't match a guy
like Hitchcock in the upper body
Coach John Welbom contends that Hill
is not really fat or superslick, but is very
dedicated. At the Nationals in particular,
Hill is one of those athletes who, though
not spectacular, makes a few mistakes and
quietly gets the job done.
Hill is part of what Welbom considers
his finest recruiting year ever, along with
Glenn Baker, Danny Monroe, Milt Sherman
and Bruce Hall. Bill was a state high
school champ in Virginia but could not go
to college immediately. He had to spend a
year in a prep school in order to get his
grades up. "It was more like a house of
detention said Hill, remembering a less
happier part of his life. "But it worked and
I got my grades up
Bill will need another year to graduate,
due to the fact that he changed his major
last year. Bill is now in Industrial Arts
after starting out in Physical Education.
"I really like Industrial Arts said Hill. "I
actually enjoy going to class Hill
ultimately hopes to open his own shop,
but will probably teach and perhaps coach
for a few years.
Thinclads defeat NC
State and Deacons
East Carolina's outdoor track team won
10 of 17 events to defeat N.C. State and
Wake Forest in a non-scoring track meet in
Raleigh on Friday afternoon.
The Wolfpack captured six events,
while the Demon Deacons were triumphant
in only one.
The Pirates will officially open their
outdoor season on March 23 when they
will face Baptist College and Princeton
University in Charleston, S.C.
