Plans for adjoining office
New art building ready for classes
By BOB CUNNINGHAM
Staff Writer
The completion of the new art building
on the East Carolina campus will be an
asset to the various programs conceming
art taught here, according to Wellington
Gray, Dean of the Art School. Work on the
building's structure is complete sufficient-
ly enough to permit classes to be held in
the modern, spacious rooms
A conversation with Wellington Gray,
dean of the schoo! of art, gives insight to
the past, present, and future circum
Stances of the new home for the ar
school. The two-story structure was built
at a cost of two and one quarter million
Gollars. Most of this money was
appropriated by the state’s capita!
improvement construction fund. There is
a second project to build an adjoining
Office . This project, known as phase two.
is scheduled to begin on December
20th of this year
For budgetary reasons, the building
will be erected in two stages, the first
stage consisting of about 65,000 square
feet. The second stage, somewhat larger
than the first, will make the toai floor
space around 142.000 square feet
NAMED JENKINS
The new art complex is to be named for
ECU Chancellor Leo W. Jenkins, a
unanimous decision made by ECU's Board
of Trustees at its May, 1973, meeting, to
recognize the efforts undertaken by Dr
Jenkins on behalf of the fine arts program
at ECU
During its phenomenal growth period
over the past decade, the ECU art schoo!
had been slowly and relentiessiy cramped
out of its original quarters in the third floor
of Rawi Building
As long ago as 1970, when ECU
officials launched a serious effort to
procure funds for a new building from the
General Assembly, the School of Art had
overspread itself into odd comers and
basements of five other campus
buildings. The original Raw! location,
equipped for about 250 students, had
simply too little space for 600 students
The new complex is jocated on the
main campus, easily visible from Fifth St
on the site of the now-demolished Old
Austin Building. Its imposing design, a
creation of Chariotte architects Odell and
Associates, is characterized by rows of
rectangular bay windows on the north and
south $1068
FINAL PREPARATIONS
Many pieces of equipment have yet to
be moved in and set up in the building
before operations will be at full
capacity. A few delays in shipping of
some equipment is the problem. Staff
members have been moving desks and
files from the Rawl building for the past
two weeks in order to prepare the building
for classes. Dean Gray is certain the art
department will be more unified than in the
past with most art programs located in the
sarne immediate area. Four departments
will remain in Raw until the phase two
building is complete
The enroliment of the schoo! of art nas
increased by approximately one hundred
students. Gray attributes the increase to
the high quality of art instruction that East
Carolina is Known for, and to the increase
:
of space for instruction
An increase in staff members of the art
department is expected According to
Dean Gray, all departments were in danger
of losing at least one faculty member due
to a decrease of full time students during
last year. This danger is no threat at the
present time
Some of the many features of the
building are special equipment in the
dyeing and printing programs. These two
processes will be simpler due to the
advanced operating techniques. The
painting areas have sixteen foot high
ceilings and large windows to permit a
northern light to enter each room. The
new kilns are set up for firing ceramics
with a natural gas flame, but in the event of
a possible gas shortage this winter, the
ovens Can be converted to hard wood or
coal flame. Aiso, there will be a large
outdoor kiln on the patio of the building
The glass first floor front reveals a
lighted interior brick wall suitable for
hanging large canvases or woven textiles
SO they can be viewed from the street
With the continuing expansion of ECU,
Dean Gray anticipates a further expansion
in all areas of art taught here
ART FACULTY AND STUDENTS eagerty anticipate the completion and full occupancy of the new art buliding.
Fine Arts bill will be first business
By MIKE TAYLOR
Staff Writer
A new Fine Arts bill which SGA
president Bob Lucas termed a
‘compromise” with a Fine Arts bill he
vetoed last Spring, will be one of the first
items of business that a new student
legisiature will deal with when it takes
office in about a month
The proposal, according to Lucas, will
allow the Orama, An, and Music
Departments to present their budgets for
the new year to the SGA in the Spring
instead of the Fall. Organizations on
campus who currently seek SGA funds are
not required to present their budgets to the
student legisiature until after a new SGA is
elected in the Fall of each year
lf passed, the proposal would give
those three departments a clean jump on
the rest of the organizations who are
seeking a slice of the SGA budget pie. If
approved those three departments would
make their regular budget request to the
SGA Appropriations Committee in the
spring for a review. The SGA committee
would then make a recommendation on the
budgets and forward it to the new SGA
which would meet the following fall
Lucas explained that with this
LL Ls
recommendation from the SGA Appro-
priations Committee the three depart-
ments would know what to expect in the
way of funding for the coming year
‘In the pasi, the departments Nad no
idea of what to expect from the
SGA. Under this bill the departments
would have a good idea of just how much
money they would get for the next year and
they could plan accordingly Lucas
pointed out
Under this new bill it would take a lot
of wondering out of the budget request for
the departments. instead of waiting for
the new SGA and the money hasseis that
always arise these three departments
would have all they nead to know in the
late Spring,” Lucas continued
SGA approval in the Fall of the
recommendation from the Appropnations
Committee would be just a “routine
matter’ Lucas believes
The SGA president asserted that this
new bill was a lot better bill for the Drama,
Art and Music Departments than was a
Fine Arts bill that was passed by the SGA
and vetoed by him last year
The proposal passes last year by the
SGA established an ECU Fine Arts
Advisory Board that would be funded $1.00
per student per quarter from monies
collected in activity fees. Funds wouid
also be taken from student activity fees
paid in the summer with a projected total
of over $30,000 being allotted to the three
depart ments
The $30,000 would then have been
distributed to the three schools with Art
getting 17 percent of the tally, Music 33
percent and the ECU Playhouse (Drama) 50
percent
The proposal sailed through the
legisiature in the next to last meeting in
May by a vote of 22-11 with two
abstentions
But, then Lucas promptly siapped a
veto on the bill explaining that “when this
kind of bill passes it opens up a Pandora's
Box.’
Lucas cited the fact that the bill would
discriminate against other departments on
campus
The SGA president said another reason
for the veto was that while the Ar
department would receive some $5,000 in
funds through the bill, they had yet to turn
in a budget and tell how the money would
be spent
In the final meeting of the SGA last
May the student legislature voted 21-17 not
to override the veto :

DOOK store
The controversy at State arose when a
person purchased some articies at the
State book store in Raleigh and no one
asked him if he fitted into a category unde:
the new law
A Raleigh merchant, who operates a
store across Hillsborough Street from the
State campus, promptly filed suit that NCS
was not following the new law and
promibiting sales to people narnad in the
wording of the bill
Faced with that suit State officials
Started checking D’s of everyone who
entered the book store and forced people
without an ID to sign a paper stating that
they came on the campus for the purpose
other than to buy something
Having to check ail IDs left traffic
advancing at a snails pace as State
opened its semester last month. But, to
meet the letter of the law, State officials
nad little choice
And, that same situation could happen
to East Carolina, according to Student
Book Store manager Joseph O. Clark
‘If someone was to press us we might
have to go to this type of system of
checking everyone " Ciark admitted
Presently the book store has posted
signs outside the store informing
perspective buyers of who can purchose
goods
Clark explained that he did not think
the ECU book store could be doing that
rmuch business to walk-in traffic other than
At the same time some of the small
institutions in Eastern North Carolina like
technical schools and community colleges
can no longer depend on the ECU book
store for their book needs
Clark noted that most of the smail
institutions could not carry ali the books
that ECU did, so the schools had in the
past, depended on the university for some
of their needs. Selling books to these
schools was a regular business before
Senate bill 1421 came into effect
Clark was quick to explain that the loss
of this business did not affect ECU as it did
the smail schools who had been used to
getting books from here in the past
NOW LEGAL
But, while the new law had stopped
some ECU book store business and could
pose some probiems in the future, Dill
1421 has finally put ECU and the rest of
the state book stores on the right side of
the law in selling some merchandise
Under a law passed by the North
Carolina legislature in 1938, aimed at
keeping state owned stores from
competing with private enterprise, state
stores could not sell anything but books
that cost more than $.25.
This law would have forced book stores
to stop selling such items as imprinted’
materials with the school’s name on it
Clark noted, however, that nobody in
the state was obeying the old 1938 law
‘To begin with, if we had to do away
with all our sales except book sales we
would just about have to close,” Clark
contended
“Most of our profit does not come from
the sale of books, it comes from the sale of
these items that were prohibited in the oid
law.” Clark continued. With everyone
breaking the old law things were fine for
the book stores until a couple of
threatened law suits against State's book
store brought on an updating by the
legislature of the 1938 Umstead Act

ON A WARM NIGHT in the mail last Wednesday, students gathered to the sounds of
Sheriocke.
The new law stated that book stores at
post-secondary education institutions
could sell “educational materials and
supplies, gift items and miscellaneous
personal-use items.”
The oid $.25 figure was done away with
and it became legal to sell imprinted ahd
health iterns, which the book stores had
actually been selling for some time
But, under the new law the book stores
must use their profits “exclusively” for
awarding scholarships
This caught ECU in something of a
bind since in previous years the book store
has used 75 percent of its profits for
scholarships and the other 25 percent for
educational items that were not normally
funded from other areas

Traditionally summer is a time that
book publishers issue forth their most pro-
mising selections, in anticipation. of
greater demand by the reading public, with
more leisure time on their hands
For many “bestseller” fans, this was just
one of those summers
To be sure, there was some excellent
fiction among the summer's selection,
varied in theme to suit almost any
taste. Again, as always it seems, war,
espionage, and suspense were popular
themes on the bookshelf. On such

contribution, BREAKHEART PASS, 178

lf you are familiar with Alistair
MaClean, then there's not much in the
novel that will surprise you, except maybe
the setting, which shifts from the usual
foreign capitals of intrigue in the twentieth
century, to an antiquated passenger train
steaming its way through the remote and
snowy mountains of Nevada, in the ole
west. Loyal followers wil! find all of the
elements of most of MaClean's other
novels wound neatly into the plot. A train

obscure destinationconfronted with
murder, death, deception and violent
surprises, unaware of the deception
around them, unaware of the intentions of
the people around them. The cast: A car

WATERSHIP DOWN
Richard Adams, Macmillan Pub. Inc.
Probably one of the most refreshing
and thought-provoking books to come
along in a great while hit the “Bestseller”
list this summer, and at last notice was
still near the top. The book is
WATERSHIP DOWN
In a day and age characterized by
burgeoning technology, and political and
sociological power struggles, it's nice to
read something so seemingly simple in
scope as this novel. You will notice that
said, “seemingly”, for WATERSHIP DOWN
belongs to that unique category of books
that may be read, and appreciated on many
leveis. To be sure, the story really is a
simple one. It belongs to a group of
adventurous rabbits who spurred on by a
visionary warming of impending doom,
leave the sanctuary of their home warren to
establish their own mode of living
elsewhere. It is a saga that encompasses
almost every element found in the human
condition. Along their way, the rabbits
encounter obstacies created by man, as
well as by nature The interplay of
llometricaily opposing political and
sociological philosophies, between the
vagabond rabbits, and a strong
totalitarian-ruled warren from which they
seek to acquire does for their new home,
suggests a great deal about the broad
spectrum of one’s own individual
interpretation of life and its relative worth,
deing subject to the whim of human
nature
Aside from its obvious social
implications, WATERSHIP DOWN, is very
much a nature book. Adams’ vivid
descriptions of weather, season and
landscape remind one of another famous
writers great affection for natureJ.R.R
Tolkein. Like Tolkein, Adams treats his
subject with such dignity and respect that
one cannot finish the novel without feeling
some sense of encouragement or
enlightenment
WATERSHIP DOWN belongs to that
elite category of books, that have enduring

Qualities that will make it as pertinent
twenty years from now, as it is
today. Buchminster Fuller has said of it
that, “it is one of those books that comes
along only once in a great while it is an
inspiration.” Other books that come to
mind, such as Tolkein’'s LORD OF THE
RINGS, White's THE ONCE AND FUTURE
KING, and Graham's THE WIND IN THE
WILLOWS, ail contain” the lyrical
symmetry, and genuine regard for life, that
is reflected in WATERSHIP DOWN, and in

Alfred Knopt, Pub. 355 pages
lf anything improves with age, then
perhaps writers do, or at least some
do. Others, such as John Le Carre mature
with time, for most critics would hesitate
to suggest any improvements from his
earlier critical and financial successes.
THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE
COLD, A SMALL TOWN IN GERMANY,
and THE LOOKING GLASS WAR. In his
latest offering TINKER TAYLOR,
SOLDIER, SPY, Le Carre reflects a growing
maturity, both in style and in theme, that
sets this novel apart from his aariier
works. For one thing, the author is
dealing with a subject he is imminently
weil qualified to write about
Having spent a number of years in
England's Foreign Service Department, Le

one who is accustomed to the hard-hitting
action of Le Carre’s other novels,
somewhat of a disappointment may be in
store. TINKER, TAYLOR, contains aii of
the elements of any good “cloak and
dagger’ rag, but represents a departure
from the traditional forms of sustained
action and overt violence that have become
the trademarks of many other top
spy-writers. Instead, one finds a very
mature, and a very realistic picture oflife in
an otherwise dirty and lonely business.
The novel's main character, George
Smiley, is recruited by his superiors to dig
out a “Mole” who has implanted himself
deeply into the fabric of the Foreigh
Department, (or “Circus” as it is ironicly
termed), and who has kept Moscow Cantre
informed with key intelligence material on
British activities for a number of
years. Smiley can trust no one. Even his
oldest friends, and closest associates in
the “Circus” are suspect. Such being the
situation, Smiley begins his arduous
journey Dack info time, remembering
names and contacts, recalling unsolved
CnMes and cases, seeking out old fnends
and enermves, anyone, of thing, which
mght give him some ciue to the “mole's”
identity. Coupled withSiniley’s ine
securities from advancing age, and his
Geciine in Geparimental status over the
years, his wifes subsequent infidelity,
(with his best fnend no tess) only
compounds his seemingly impossible
task
In George Smiley we find a very
different, and unique type of literary
hero. Unlike the “James Bond” prototype
of most other heros in books of this
nature, Smiley is a man who depends on
his wits, his intuition, and his mernory
which makes for an interesting and indeed
intellectual Geparture from the norm

programs and to suggest new ones for the
future
The surveys were distributed through-
out the dorms by the WRC and MRC. Day
students were able to fill out a survey in
the main lobby of the Student Union and
the Croatan
Of the roughly 4000 copies printed,
approximately 825 were returned and 330
were not used
This was the first SGA opinion survey
taken by the present administration. The
questions for the survey were obtained
from the Executive Council, Class
Officers, Cabinet members and Legis-
lators
Because this was the first atternpt of a
student opinion survey, there are many
changes that need to be made before the
next Survey is taken
The method of distribution in the
dorms needs to be revised. There was a
very low number of surveys returned from
the dorms. A better method would be one
Taxes at work
CPS-The American taxpayer may be
relieved to learn that scientific research
has not been ignored by the federal
government
His tax doilars have funded such
endeavors as the study of bisecual Polish
frogs, the odor of sweat from Austrailian
aborgines and mating calls of Central
American toads
From a Generai Accounting Office
report, Rep. John B. Conian (R-AZ) has
compiled an expenditures list of various
federal studies
Some of the problems scrutinized by
the eye of the governmen' include the
following
The Department of Health, Education
and Welfare spent $19,300 to find out why
children fall off tricycles. Their official
finding: “Unstable performance, parti-
cularly rollover while turning.”
The federal government's Board of
Tea Tasters sips along at taxpayers’s
expense, costing $117.250 a year Extra
sipping is also done for those unhappy
with this board's tea-tasting tests by the
Board of Tea Appeals
The Interdepartmental Screw Threas
Committee, established as a temporary
agency 'O speed the end of World War , is
still laboring to make nuts and boits fit
together. The cost: $250,000 a year
A study of the blood groups of Polish
Ziotnika pigs was conducted at the
Agriculture College in Poznan, Poland.
The $20,550 project was funded by the US
Agriculture Department and investigated
red blood cells and serum antigens in this
new racial group of swine.
-in the interest of continued
international Viplomacy, England's Queen
Elizabeth received $68,000 from Uncle Sam
for not planting cotton on her Mississippi
plantation
Federal programs, Conian has noted,
cost every man, woman and child about
$1,500 each year—more than double the
cost person in 1965.
“Since tax cheaters can be fined and
‘odin bureaucrats guilty of squandering
our money should be as well.”
similar to the one used in the CU and
Croatan
Other suggestions for the survey
include: making use of computerized
answer sheets, a space designed for
remarks, and a place to mark Day Student
or Dorm Student so these surveys can be
kept separated
As a result of the survey, the present
administration has student imput to work
with during the upcoming year
To increase the communication
between the students and the SGA is one
of the present administrations main
goals. This can only be accomplished
with everyone's cooperation. Please take

Again amnesty
The long awaited and much disputed amnesty plan was finally revealed
yesterday. Now, where do we go from here?
While planning this editorial and trying to evaluate my feelings, it came to me that a
lot of people may be just as “middie of the road” as am
am not afraid to take a stand on this very controversial issue. It is just that have
seen the situation from many sides that cannot judge anyone for their actions, even the
originators of this conditional program. cannot judge, yet neither can completely
understand these persons so vehemently supporting either end of a flat yes or no to the
questions of amnesty and dessertion
lt is very difficult think, to stand pat on a right or wrong answer when the whole
Situation is honestly and closely examined
am not a hawk, and thank God the war is over. If were an idealist would hope
there would never be another
But back to the issue, that question, you see have a couple of close friends who
»Otained conscientious objectors status, a friend in Canada, several friends (two from
ECU) who sweated out the war's end after being drafted in the middie of their studies,
and family and friends who served in Vietnam. Six years ago was living in Denver, Colo
which received a great number of wounded soldiers at the Army hospital there. Having
occasion to visit my brother every day, was in close contact with those men, some
barely recognizable as such. And as a worker for the POW cause was in close contact
with families of POW’'s and MIA’s. On top of ai! that am a believer in helping fellow men
and not leaving your neighbor to hold up your end. Yet, don't believe in agression and
slick, undernanded political moves by calculating politicians
All said and done, this war was-and now it is not. Of the men who choose not to
fight, how can anyone condemn them for refusing to kill or be killed. As for those who
went against their will, now can anyone judge whether they are better men than those
who refused to compromise their beliefs? As for those who went because they were
soidiers and that was their duty, how can anyone claim them heroes—they had already
made their decision when they signed up
Everyone has paid long enough for this war. Why should the men who refused to be
Dullied and threatened into political killing (isn't that what it was?) be forced to suffer

Ford cleans house
By JACK ANDERSON
WASHINGTON - Soviet leaders
have sent secret signals to President Ford
that they are eager to get along with
him. They have deliberately downplayed
their dispute with him over Soviet bases in
the Indian Ocean
Ford had scarcely moved into the White
House before he told a press conference
that the Soviet Union was “operating three
naval bases in the Indian Ocean.” This
brought a quick denial from the official
Soviet news agency, Tass, which called it
a “regretabie inaccuracy.”
The President was speaking of Um
Qasr. an iraq port at the head of the
Persian Gulf; Aden on the South Yemen
coast, guarding the entrance to the Red
Sea, and Berbera across the Aden Gulf on
the African coast of Somalia
Technically, Ford was wrong, and the
Kremiin was right. There are no actual
Soviet bases at these three strategic
ports. But Soviet war ships have been
granted special privileges and priorities at
all three ports. The Soviets use the ports,
therefore, to refit and resupply their naval
ships.
The Kremlin leaders have jet Ford
know, meanwhile, that they don't want this
dispute to interfere with the Soviet-Amer-
ican Getente. As an added gesture, they
have assured Ford that the harrassment of
Soviet Jews will stop and that 50,000
Soviet Jews will be permitted to emigrate
next year
Nuclear Setbacks: The world’s states
men are losing their struggie to keep
nuclear weapons under contro! and, there
by, to reduce the risks of a nuclear
war. Here are the latest grim develop
ments
President Ford has decided not to send
the nuclear test ban treaty, which was ‘°
negotiated in Moscow last July, to the
Senate for ratification. Instead, he will go
back to the negotiating table for more
talks. Our sources don't expect these to
accomplish anything
The Soviets have admitted setting off
fourteen nuciear blasts in the past for
peaceful purposes. U.S. intelligence,
however, Nas detected 32 explosions. The
Soviets, apparently, are attempting to
divert rivers into the barren areas of
Siberia
The Chinese communists have flatly
rejected all attempts to gain their
cooperation § in controlling nuclear
WEAPONS
Contrary to India’s assurance that its
nuciear test ast May was intended strictly
for non-military purposes, Intelligence
reports claim that the nuclear develop
ments began in 1971 as a military
project. This has already started a
scrambie for nuclear weapons by other
small powers
Our sources expect a dozen nations to
process nuciear arms by the end of the
decade. This will ominously increase the
risks that these doomsday WEAPONS May
fall into the hands of irresponsible leaders
and terrorists
The Family Home: The single-family
home will become a thing of the past -
unless something drastic is done to revive
the depressed housing industry
LL eee
That's the message on President Ford's
desk right now. It is contained in a
confidential memo from Housing
Secretary Jarnes Lynn
The memo warns that few single-family
dwellings are now being built. Most of the
construction is centered aroun the
booming condominium craze. Tenants are
being squeezed out as apartment buildings
are being converted to condominiums ail
over the nation
This has driven up the price of
single-family homes. Many houses also
require a 25 per cent down payment. With
interest rates at eleven per cant, only the
rich can now afford to buy their own
homes
Those close to President Ford say he is
gravely concerned about these develop
ments. He holds the belief that the
single-family home is an important
element in the social fabric. Like many
sociologists, he thinks that crowded,
low-income housing projects strain the
basic family unit
The President, therefore, may pump
federal money into the housing industry to
save the traditional American single-farnily
home
Nixon's Pardon: Ve have been
bombarded with questions about the
pardoning of ex-President Nixon. We have
carefully investigated the story behind the
pardoning and have spoken to sources
who are in a position to know what
happened
Did Nixon make a deal for a pardon
before he brought Ford into the White
House? We have found absolutely no
evidence of any advance understanding
about a pardon. On the contrary,
President Ford specifically instructed his
representative, Benton Becker, not to
promise pardon during the preliminary
discussions at San Clemente
Why did Ford grant the pardon? He
acted strictly out of compassion. He had
received reports that Nixon was terribly
Gepressed and Gespondent, that his nerves
were strung like a harp, that he was
Geteriorating daily Ford thought the
humane thing to do was to pardon his
predecessor
Why didn’t the President wait until the
courts had determined Nixon's guilt? Ford
was told that a Nixon indictment was
imminent. He felt that the indictment
rmgnt crack Nixon's emotional stability
Since Ford had already decided upon
mercy, Ne thought it would be more
COMpassionate tO act immediately
Didn't Ford realize that a Nixon pardon
would be unequal justice and might upset
the whole Watergate prosecution? His
lawyers told him that the power to pardon
nad been used in the past as the
President's personal prerogative, without
regard for equal justice. But the whole
truth is that Ford simply didn't consider ail
the implications
Washington Whirl: By pardoning
Richard Nixon, the President has revived
the Watergate controversy after aimost
putting it to rest. This will increase the
nsks that the GOP will become identified
in the public mind as the Watergate party
The voters won't be able to vote against
either Nixon of Ford on November
Sth. Therefore, many voters will register

99 others who received Dr. Jenkins’ tale of

economically unfeasible to operate co-ed

Garrett
To Fountainhead :
This summer the ECU Board of
Trustees voted to close Garrett Hal! as a
co-ed residence because (1) it was not
filled to capacity at the time of their
meeting, and (2) the Medical School
wanted to use Ragsdale for office space
and laboratory facilities. The action taken
by the Board created many problems, most
of which they didn’t plan for.
One of these was that by making
Garrett a men’s dorm, the 100 women who
were to live there had to move somewhere,
be it in other dorms with women who had
private rooms or off-campus, where the
housing problem is at the critical level.
The Board also failed to realize how
upset both students and parents would get
when they voted to move the Garrett
residents around in “cattle” fashion. At
the spring meeting of the Board, its
members were presented ai study
conducted by the residence of Garrett
telling them about the effects of co-ed
living at ECU. They were toid that the men
and women of Garrett had become a big
family, and the friendships made there
were very strong and meaningful. When
Garrett was changed from co-ed this
summer, the full effect of these
friendships were concretely displayed.
People phoned each other, and soon
letters began to come to Dr. Jenkins’ office
and to Robert Jones’ office (Mr. Jones is
chairman of the Board of Trustees). From
all reports have received, both were rather
surprised that the students would get so
upset about not only something so trivial
as losing a place to live, but also ending,
at least for this year, the Garrett co-ed
concept.
There are many people who deserve a
lot of thanks for the help they gave us this
summer in the effort to keep Garrett
co-ed. Bob Lucas worked long and hard
with us both through his office as SGA
president and as a member of the Board of
Trustees. He acted as our spokesman to
the Board and to Mr. Jones, in particular,
and we believe he got our message across
for us. He helped us get out our letters
explaining the situation about Garrett to as
many residents as possible. Without
Bob's help, very little could have been
done. Inez Fridley, our counselor, and Bill
Beckner gave us never-ending help and
support.
We would also like to thank everyone
who wrote letters. Your words opened the
eyes of the blind and caused some of the
near-sighted to buy glasses. Maybe they
will ne able to see further next time. Last,
but not least, would like to thank Linda
Carrel, the president of Fletcher last year,
for first, looking up and writing down
everyone's names and addresses, and,
second, for steering me in the right
direction, giving me a smile and words of
encouragement when things were down,
and for just being there. You're the
greatest, Beetle.

Lucas on communication
Communication! am sure we will all concur that the Student Government
Association definitely has had problems in the past attaining sufficient communication
with its constituents. In other words, students often form clouds of puzziement when
they attempt to relate to their own Student Government. Taking this fact into
consideration, feel it is high time the Student Government attempted to achieve imput
from students concerning their upcoming projects and policies. Secondly, feel the
SGA should bear the responsibility of informing students of details concerning major
issues, which affect the daily lives and wel! being of numerous students. in partial
fulfillment of this new Communication policy, will be writing about various issues each
week. in all instances, each letter will be a positive atternpt to inform, or explain relevant
campus issues to you. Before delving into a particular subject this week, felt a few
generalizations of student government objectives for the coming year would be more
beneficial and appropriate
Along the same lines of communication, many of you probably remember the student
lopinion survey taken last spring. One of the questions requested the student to offer
suggestions and criticisms to the SGA. By far the greatest criticism was a lack of
publicity and communication on the part of theSGA. As one student articulately siated,
“ don't Know what in the hei! is going on with you folks.” Therefore, in response to the
survey and numerous conversations with students, the SGA will attempt to make
students more aware of its structure, operations, and policies. Secondiy, we are making
positive attempts to improve the services we currently offer. For instance, a iarge
campaign has been made by the SGA to publize the transit system so that more students
will take advantage of the service.
Thirdly and perhaps most important, the SGA will strongly seek imput from students
conceming new projects and policies. We will accomplish this by periodically hoiding
student forums, presidential forums (leaders of ali carnpus organizations) and student
opinion surveys. certainly cannot over stress the importance of each student taking
part in one or all of these “vehicles of communication.” For instance, a student forum is
an opportunity for any student to question SGA officials or their actions as well as
recommend thoughts for the future.
In all honesty, there is 90 doubt about it, your SGA needs your heip and definitely
your imput. There are numerous areas the Student Government pians to place emphasis
upon this year. Some of these include fine arts, bike trails, co-ed dorms, student
Iconsumer affairs, academic reform, and above ali, lobbying for individual studént
needs. strongly encourage and invite you to come by the Student Government office
and talk to us about becoming involved in your Student Government. Meanwhile, if we
can be of any assistance to you in the coming year, please don't hestitate to call or come
by.
Sincerely,
Jenkins

Enrollment
To Fountainhead :
see by your front page article of Sept.
12 that Leo Jenkins is happy over the high
enroliment. I'm glad he is, cause this
writer knows plenty of people who are not.
But, he has reason to be happy, high
enroliment means big money, doesn't
it? He gets the money, we get to stand in
longer lines. He gets the prestige and
honor, we get closed out of badly needed
classes and the extra roommate.
One last disappointment, the closing
of Garrett as a co-ed dorm. This was a
step backward in the development of a
sexually uninhibited society in the view of
this observer. We have been given a
myriad of reasons for its failure, but none
of them seem to stand on their own.
Maybe it would be a good idea for all
the displaced people to camp on friend
Jenkins’ lawn. If he is so happy over the
added people, this should increase his joy
a thousand fold.
Ken Strayhorn
Last Saturday there was something
going at Leo Jenkins’ house, for some
reason (shade of Nixon's executive
privilege?) he seems to be exempt from the
traffic laws as numerous cars were parked
in a towaway zone making the street
(Jarvis) barely passable. if had a party
and someone parked there wellwe ail
know what would happen. Two com
plaints were registered and ignored, a third
will be registered along with a few license
plate numbers. isn't it time we looked to
our local politics and clean them
up? Though this time he will get away
with it, maybe next time he won't.

plans park clean up
By JEFF ROLLINS
Staff Writer
“The church ought to be authentic, not
plastic, in representing itself to young
people,” says the Rev. James H. Bailey. It
is along this line of thought that Rev
Bailey, in conjunction with Volunteer
Greenville, VISTA, and the Greenville
Recreation Department has organized a
campaign to clean up a local creek and
turn it into a smal! park
The creek is located on Darden St
which is across from the Greenville
Hospital. A potential “place to get away
to it runs behind the Moyehouse
Housing Development. “The kids down
here really need a place to play,” says Rev
Bailey, as he envisions footbridges, picnic
tabies, and a gravel path running part of
the length of the creek
Rev. Bailey speaks highly of Christian
service and prefers a “work party” instead
of a reception or dinner to welcome
students back to school. Named “Howdy-
Doody”, the proiject will be on four
consecutive Saturdays, from 11:00 to 4:00
in the afternoon, beginning on Sept
28. The women of Jarvis Memorial Church
will serve a Chuck Wagon dinner on the
site to volunteers

“It isn't strictly a church project, but a
project for anyone who wants to get
involved,” says Rev. Bailey, and he hopes
fraternities and sororities will adopt this as
a service project
Jarvis Memorial wil! provide al! picks,
shovels, rakes etc. for cleaning the site
and building the park
interested parties should meet at Jarvis
Memorial Church at 11:00 on Saturday,

Ficklen adds lights.

for Business Affairs
Moore said the new lighting system

Pirates top Falcons in opener
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
The wishbone offense and the Pirates
Wild Dog” defense mate Pat Dye's first
egiate victory much easier than
expected as the Pirates coasted past the
siting Falcons of Fowling Green, 24-6, in
the seascn opener for both squads at
kien Saturday
With sophomo.e quarterback Mike
veaver leading the way, the newly
nstalied wishbone swept the offense to
‘nrae scores. Vveever ied the rushing
attack, picking up 85 of the Pirates 337
yards on the ground. Kenny Strayhorn
xided 7B yards on only six carries,
ncluding a 44 yard rambie in the first
ceriod which set up the Bucs’ first score
The Faicons threatened to draw first
od when, on their first possessiaqn, they
ve down to the Pirate 23 before running
tof stearn. The drive was engineered by
phomore ouarterback Mike Booth
wth, 10 of 24 for the night, hit on passes
‘12 and 18 yards, carrying the Faicons
Pirate territory. David Preston then
arried the pigskin to the 25. This is as far
as the Falcons would get. On a big third
jown play from the 23, Kenny Moore broke
gh to drop Preston for a loss and end
the Falcons momentum
The Pirates, without much assistance
nthe Faicons defense, then swapt to
their first score. The big play came at the
Bowling Green 49 with just over eight
nutes remaining in the quarter, Weaver
ed to his left for what appeared to be a
rt gain, but when the defense swarmed
for the kill, the 62, 170 pound

DON SCHINK carries Falcon tackler for that extra yard.
yf Ray Jones, Tom Daub, and Willie
Hawkins, Weaver personally led the team
to a score. Weaver raced 33 yards to the
seven on the fourth playof the series and
Ray Jones scored trom the two for the
Pirates 14-0 lead
This is the way things went the whole
night. The defense would control the
Bowling Green offense, force them into?
making turnovers and then Weaver and
junior Tom Chipok would take over the
wishbone and dominate play. East
Carolina's high amount of penalties,
totalling 134 yards, we3 what kept the
Falcons in the game, giving them first
jowns on several occasions after the
jefense had heid their attack at bay
East Carolina moved to a field goal in
the second period, almost scoring on a

Woody's 24 yard boot and a 17-0 lead at the
half. The Falcons threatened just before
the half, but Emest Madison's
interception at the EC 27 ended the drive
and the haif
The Bucs engineered a drive on their
first possession of the second haif,
baffling the Faicons defense with an
unbalanced line which Bowling Green
coach Don Nehien «ould later attribute the
major force in his squad's defeat, “Their
unbalanced line looked like the
difference. We were caught by surprise
and did not quite recover enough to the
change.”
The Bucs drove to the 21, where
another penalty halted the drive. Woody's
43 yard field goal atternpt hit the crossbar
and fell short, turning the Pirates away
empty handed
The Bucs’ final score of the night
followed Danny Kepiey’s recovery of 4
Bowling Green fumble, one of the Faicon’s
six tumovers for
the game, at the
JESSE INGRAM looks ahead to a season of recovery.
39. Using Bobby Myrick and Schink for
most of the yardage, Vveaver ied the team
to the three. From the three, Weaver
carried the bali himself for the score and a
24-0 lead
Two Pirate miscues accounted for the
Bowling Green score. First, a roughing
the kicker penaity allowed the Faicons to
retain possession of the bali at the Pirate
34. The Faicons mounted their biggest
drive of the night to the Pirate 12. Gary
Nikiason, one of the Pirate standouts on
defense for the night, came up with an
interception at the 5. The theft provided
only a short respite when substitute Steve
Hale missed a handoff and Bowling
Green's Bill Whidden fell on the loose bal!
at the 13
From here, it took Bowling Green only
three plays to score with Vic Bakunoff
carrying six yards for the tally. Even this
score was tarnished for the Faicons
beacuse of the numerous penalties by the
Buc defense, which for the night was
superd
On the defense, coach Dye
commented, “Bowling Green's offense
was real good, but our defense was
great. We really made the stops we
needed. Actually, their touchdown was a
gift.”
So, with a big win under their belts and
no significant injuries, the Pirates seem
ready for battle. The wishbone seems to
be the answer to any offensive woes which
may Nave been expected with the loss of
Summerel! and. Crumpler. Weaver seems
capable of filling Summereil’s big shoes,
with Tom Chipoka capable back-up
man. The passing game needs improve
ment over Saturday's 0 for 8 performance,
but there were several dropped passes that
were on their mark. Not enough can be
said about the “Wild Dog” defense ied by
Kepley, Moore. and Nikiason. The outlook
appears bright for a third Southern
Conterence title
The Pirates wil! play host Saturday to
East Tennessee State University
As was the case with Bowling Green, the
‘ Pirates, going into this contest, have never
before beaten the Buccaneers
