Top name groups are sought
By T.K. SULLIVAN Staff Writer
Major Attractions, the Student Government Association Committee responsible for bringing top-name bands to the ECU campus, has announced intentions to try to book America for Homecoming weekend
Members of the Committee warned that while they were doing their best to get the man America, no final agreement has heen made yet. “We have an option on them,” it was reported, “but they haven't given us a final word yet.”
At the Sept. 18 maeting the Committee, chaired by Bill Womble, laid to rest a rumor that Elton John had been booked. “ want the students to know that we tried to get him. We're trying to get the top-name groups.” Reports had been circulating of late that the big name performer of such milion-selliers as “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” and “Caribou” would be coming to ECU this year
We're at the mercy of the acts themselves,” continued Major Attractions Advisor Paul Brietman. “If we could book him (Elton John) we would. But artists as big aS he is can now pick their own spots. They no longer have to go on tour, ust play where they like - a one-night stand, let's say, at the Astrodome or Madison Square Garden.” Brietman added that Elton John's promoters wouldnt even yucte them a price
Most superstars use promoters and go for large cities,” stated Womble, “where they can pull from 17,000 to 20,000. There's less hassie and more more money involved going to these places instead of colleges
The Committee, made up of seven students and an advisor cites this lack of group availability which has hit the market in the last few years as their major problems. Many groups are playing hard-to-get, or simply don’t tour regularly, making the work of Major Attractions that much harder
“We have to deal in realities,” explained Brietman. “We can't deal through a wishing we We get who we can. It may not be our first choice, but it was the one available.”
There are other considerations and added probiems for the students on the Committee
“Many of the acts don't even answer,” remarked Vicki Cunningham. “We have to consider the size of the hall, too. And the location is an important factor. We're 90 miles from Raleigh. Now, if we were 90 miles from Atlanta
Funds are not the largest worry. The Major Attractions Committee, according to Womble, “was set up three to four
years ago with a budget of $40

Homecoming fetes 50’s

theme based on the 50's were the main topics Kdiscussed at yesterday's Homecom Steering Committee, chaired by Wade Hobgood. There's only a verbal agreament 1 “America,” Hobgood said, but the Committee is optimistic about having the group on campus.
Although a definite title theme has not been decided, the committee voted to accept the idea of the 50's. A subcommittee will determine the exact title.
Homecoming, planned for the week of Oct. 28, will also feature a dance, concert by the ECU School of Music, parade, football game, film festival of cartoons, and an alumni
The voting and crowing of two queens — Miss Soul and Miss ECU — will also be
The dance, scheduled for Thursday of Homecoming Week for ECU students and lalumnni, will feature “The Drifters”, “The Spontanes”, and “The Shirailes.” Contracts have been signed on the latter two groups
There will be a parade Saturday of Homecoming weekend before the football game. interested fraternities should turn in commitment sheets for their float to Dr Charlies Q. Brown, Director of Institutional Develooment or Wade Hobgood, Chairman of


thousand.” The money is in a revolving fund, meaning that the goal of ticket money from any concert is to replace the original cost
“We don't try to make a profit, we just break even and hold onto our origina) sum,” said Brietman. Thus, no new money is put in the account from SGA funds
Part of the Committee's problem, they agreed, was lack of communication with the student body at large. The students, they reported, do not realize the problerns of getting big-name acts, or understand why some of the favorites such as Elton John or Jonn Denver, can't be gotten. “We go by trial and error,” summed up one of the members. “We try to get the best we can, but it's a seliers market now, not a buyer's.”
“It's very disheartening for the people on this Committee,” stated Brietman. They come in with ideas and suggestions for big groups we can't get. That tends to break the bubbie.” He added, “the students are down on them, but they are very conscientious, and the student body is well represented. But it is frustrating All we want is for everyone to give us a chance.”
America, the band under consideration but not yet signed up, is a folk rock band which has had several hit singles and albums in the last 3 years, including “Horse With No Name” and “Ventura Highway”. The fee they would get if booked was not disclosed, although ticket prices wouid have to be set accordingly
Chairman Womble reported that the Committee is open to suggestions or comments from the students. Room 233 in the new student union is the official Major Attractions office
Intercom offers students 24 hour service
By NANCY HARTIS Staff Writer
According to Clifton G. Moore, Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs, there are two main reasons for the installation of the new paging systems in the women s dorms at ECU. First of all, Moore explained, “We
ould not afford to hire the student hostesses on duty eighteen hours a day The second reason, he added, was that the new systems offered the students 24 hour i day service, whereas the previous system 1 uSINg student hostesses to page women juring visitation hours did not
Moore explained that this service was
reated “primarily for the convenience of the girls He added that “the results of this system are twofold. there is 4 savings to the students occupying the dorms, and there is a Continuous paging service
Julian Vainrigm, Assistant to the Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs, compared the cost of the new system to the cost o! hiring Students to act 45 pages Vain night's figures, based on the 1973-74 year were $9603 for one year with he ntercoms. and $38,597 was the cost of hiring students for one year. Obviously this indicates savings for the women HVving in ECU dorms
Another according to Carolyn A
reason for the switch Fulghum
By BARNEY BOWLES
Associate Dean of Student Affairs for Women, was complaints against the student hostesses. After testing the system last year in Clement and Umstead, and after receiving no complaints either mechanical or from the students, the final decision was made. So far, this year,
Dean Fuighum has received only one complaint: a case of vandalism, resulting in the loss of the intercom on one floor of Clement dorm
However, even though Daan Fulghum has received no complaints from the students, a random poll of the students

Total enrollment is witheld
By GRETCHEN R. BOWERMASTER Staff Writer
The total ECU student enroliment for 1974-75, higher than any year in the school's history, will be secret until Oct. 1. On that date the figure will be officially released, and everyone can stop guessing.
University officials, under instruction from ECU Chancellor .e0 Jenkins, say that any estimate would be preliminary and inaccurate.
“Our budget is based on actual student enroliment,” said John H. Home, Dean of Admissions. “If the people in Raleigh pick up conflicting figures, they'll question our official tabulation.”
REASONS GIVEN Enroliment is up, and according to Robert Ussery, Director of Institutional Research, the following reasons can only be conjectural : Many new and timely programs are
being offered this year, such as Allied Health, Social Science programs, Marine Sciences and Correctional Services
—Departmental chairmen are being very cooperative with prospective students, helping with pranning an scheduling in the students’ education and training.
—Admissions officials have been doing a great amount of recruiting in N.C and Va. high schools, “working overtime.”
—-More out-of-state and transfer students are being accepted, creating what Ussery termed “a good cultural melting pot.”
—Schoiastic Aptitude Test scores, which Horne says are an arbitrary means of selecting students, have not been called into play much this year.
“A student may have an S.A.T. score of 650 but rank in the top 6 or 7 percent of a class of 500,” said Horne. “Someone with a high S.A.T. score but poor grades may be a good test-taker, but is probably lazy and
more likely to flunk out.” Horne said that S.A scores are usually used when applications are high.
“There was a dip in enrollment iast plications were fairly low, and grades were considered more important than S.A.T. scores. After January there was an upsurge in applications, ali over the state, peaking in April.” Home also said, “You have a budget, you need a certain number of students.”
Enroliments are expected to increase during the next two years, then stabilize, according to Ussery.
“By studying the live birth rate, constituting the number of people available for college enroliment, one finds that the birth rate was declining 18 years ago,” said Ussery. “During this projected period of enroliment stabilization, the thing to focus on will be the improvement of educational facilities and teachers in the university,” he said
Intercoms cause mixed reactions
Continued from page one.
calling, then you miss each other.” She then added, “But do like it because if the caller came when the hostess was gone, then he had no way of getting up with you
Lynne Syddall of Wilmington, Dei voiced her reaction, saying, “It doesnt seem to be loud enough. But guess it is good they can get you anytime. Some- times there's a little obscenity
“ don't like them personally, but you see, have kind of a Southern accent, and when get on thé intercom people get kinda tickled,” answered Mitchel! Rowe of Newton Conover. “And don't think the girls like it either. Sometimes the boys get too close and come out sounding too loud,” he added
Dave Woods of Vienna, Va, complained, “Sometimes they (the girls) say someone isn't there that is. It got to the point here I'd rather use a dime and call her up. was sitting there one night and my girl never got the message and left after twenty minutes of waiting for her,” he said. “Now usually follow a girl into the elevator and on up to my girl's room,” he continued
On the other hand, there were several peopie to voice support for the new intercoms. Jeanne Hagan of Goldsboro said, “Overall, like the new one better, The hostesses weren't always
there. Sometimes the guys yell, of carry
on conversations, but think it’s better.’
‘ think it's a pretty good idea. Not everybody knows how to use it, Dut it's pretty good,” commented Janet Odom of Jamestown
“They stink,” said Dan Winter of Annadelie, Va. After thinking it over, he added that he was starting to get used to it. “It's embarassing,” he said. “But guess it’s all right now.”
Of course, there are always going to be the mischief-makers. Take for instance, the case of Marcia McGaha, as explained by Debbie Bennett of Carey, and Joyce Foster of Richmond, Va. It seems Miss McGaha, a resident of Tyler dorm, had a caller one day who called her down saying, “Marcis McGaha ha ha ha ha ha.” Some young men say things like: “Come on down!” in the style of Johnny Olsen of the Price is Right
One girl of Jarvis Hall said she heard someone doing immitations of Grandpa McCoy over the system. The same gir! added, “ get a real kick out of just listening to them.”

TM” is described as a “method of allowing one’s mind to be drawn automatically into the deepest and most refined level of thinking” and has grown immensely popular the past few years in the US. with over 300,000 Amerncans practicing “TM”, and another 15,000 starting every month
Diane Pittman, director of SIMS in Greenvillle which is also taught by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the founder of TM, said it is not a religion but a “specific form of lifestyle
She added, “Demands of life absorb yur Natural resources. This is stress which iS an Overload on the nervous system Rest relieves stress and TM gives a more ompiete rest

Pittman said the TM can aiso make a person more crealive because the deep rest TM gives heips him to reach an untapped reservior of energy and intelligence.”
She also stated that the growth of TM has been due to people practicing it and telling fnends about it and also, the scientific acceptance of it

Rev Earnnhart said he felt that Christians should not be isolated from other people and pointed out that Right to Life, a program that offers an alternative to abortion, and a Bible study were going on in the Butiding at the sane time Rev Earnhart vorosd the sare opinion as Diane Pittman in suggesting that TM could be “a helpful tool one can employ in their Own religious activity” and that it was not a religion Conoeming those who were against the TM lecture, Rev.

Weather breaks or makes it Tobacco part of eastern lifestyle
By JEFF ROLLINS Staff Writer
A clean spring moming, mid-April, Clayton Cannon surveys one of his fields Freshly plowed, the ground gives softly as he walks. “A lot fo work,” he thinks, “a lot of work, and luck, and fair weather, and in four months might have a pretty fair crop.” Clayton Cannon grows tobacco
N.C. MONEY CROP
Almost a third of all the tobacco grown in the US comes from North Carolina. We at East Carolina are right in the middie of prime tobacco producing country. Stand at the center of campus, Start walking in any direction and it’s a sure bet that before iong you'll end up right in the middie of a tobacco field. You saw them when you were coming to school, expansive fields with leafy plants. anywhere from knee to waist-high, spreading green and iow across the landscape. in fact. if you walked from any random point in N.C you would end up in a tobacco field sooner or later because tobacco is grown in 90 of the 100 counties in this state. It is N.C.’s top money crop
“NECESSITY OF MECHANIZATION”
Clayton Cannon has a growing operation yielding 70,000 ibs of tobacco leaf yearly. Cannon, his four sons, and “one live in” farmnand do the brunt of the work, with the women of the family heiping out aS much as they can. Cannon's farm is typical of the relatively small farms in N.C. In addition to growing tobacco Cannon must supplement his income with another job, during the week he is a full time salesman. “My son, who has handled the crops since he was 14 years old, is my right hand,” says Cannon
Being literally at the root level, farmers find themseives in a pecular bind, they must sell wholesale, and buy retail, this is hard on all farmers, and especially srnail farmers who don’t have the financial power to buy equipment, fertilizers and other essentials in large quantities. “It’s either
expand or quit,” says Cannon. “When you consider what you have to spend, and what you get back, the only way to make money is to do big business “ thusly, he speaks of the “necessity” of mechanization

Like prices for everything, the tobacco price fluctuates according to the law of supply and demand. To stabilize the market the federal government has set certain limitations on the amount of tobacco that each farmer is allowed to produce each year. It is common, but not publicized, for farmers to grow more than their quota of tobacco and sell it through other farmers who have not used the entire amount allotted to them. A good price for Quality tobacco nowadays is $1.12 per Ib
About a mile from campus are several tobacco warehouses. Here the farmer brings his tobacco, after he has cured it, to be auctioned to either cigarette, processing of export companies. it's really an experience to see and hear tobacco being auctioned. The tobacco sits wrapped in burlap diapers called
sheets”. These sheets weigh from 150 to 250 Ibs. Long rows of sheets are piaced in different sections for each farmer. The midday sun beats relentlessly on the large flat roof. The air is a mixture of dust, the smell of freshly cured tobacco and body odor The auctioneer stands, king of the show, shouting a language that only tne truly initiated can understand. People are moving everywhere, loading, unloading, moving, holding, watching, anc almost inconspicuously, the buyers flick their
hands, or nod their heads, indifferently deciding whether four months of hard work for the farmer was worth their while

About the time we were coming to school, Clayton Cannon was finishing the curing of the last of his tobacco. His tobacco, like most in N.C is flue-cured, there are four ways to cure tobacco: flame curing, sun curing, air curing and five curing
The trucks rattle out of Greenville, carrying away the tobacco that will soon be used for cigarettes. The warehouses are silent, no auctioneers, no moving machines, and the farmers tell themseives again that maybe next year wil! be better after all, this year wasn't so bad. The

O’Keefe brings experience
By SHANE DEROLF Staff Writer
Larry O'Keefe, ECU's new assistant professor of journalism, is enthusiastic about his first year of teaching
O'Keefe says, “! consider my classroom a newsroom and approach teaching as if were the editor and the students were reporters.” This method of instruction is geared to prepare students
for what to expect in newspaper work. The most effective way to heip students adapt to a newspaper
atmosphere, he thinks, is by having them go out and actually write their own stories. Then O'Keefe edits these stories and works with students for improvement
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
When asked whether or not there was a lack of motivation among the school’s journalism students, O'Keefe said, “The students seem very interested in their work.” This “independent motivation” of his students will heip O'Keefe make the transition from government reporter and environmental editor on the Woodbury, New Jersey Daily Times to teaching journalism at ECU. The joumalism staff now consists of two professors, but there are not yet sufficient funds for a journalism school at ECU
BY RICK GOLDMAN

in discussing the transition from newspaper work to teaching, O'Keefe felt the biggest change was in becoming responsible for a large number of students instead of being responsibie only for his Own newspaper assignments.
PROMOTE GREATER INTEREST
A native of Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, Mr. O'Keefe graduated from La Fayette. University near Philadeiphia with a major iN political science. He attended graduate school at the University of Florida, where he earned an communications.

O'Keefe said, “You can't lecture someone on how to write. What makes a good reporter is energy.” Also he pointed out the importance of experience in writing. “ hope to take students with a basic understanding of English and adapt their writing style to that which is commonly accepted by the mass media.
O'Keefe plans to promote greater interest in journalism classes this year. “ hope my experience will encourage students to pursue journalism.” Since the foundation for his teaching is two years newspaper experience, he brings to ECU a practical knowledge of how a newspaper operates and how to prepare students for journalism work

‘461 Ocean Boulevard’ lacks ‘Layla’ power
“461 Ocean Boulevard” - Eric Clapton
By BRANDON TISE Staff Writer
Eric Clapton makes an enjoyable, yet not magnificent, comeback with “461 Ocean Boulevard”, his first album of new material since 1970's “LAYLA”. This new album lacks the sheer, overwheiming power of “LAYLA" instead of being content to offer purist blues, and to show a very subtle side of Clapton
After keeping Clapton's heroin usage out of the news for almost four years Clapton and his business controllers, The Robert Stigwood Organization Ltd. are more than willing to tell how he beat the heroin problem. Beginning at the end of 1973, Clapton was treated by a woman doctor whose name has not been revealed to the press, who cured him after months of treatment. The “new stronger’ Clapton who was mentioned in all the PR in recent months was a result of the treatment and a very strong will to be cured. The tidal wave of emotion which produced “LAYLA” was born of pain; the happiness of the reborn Clapton produced the work found on “461 Ocean Boulevard”. It is an aibum that traces the root of Clapton and by the titles of some of the cuts, ‘Give Me Strength’ and ‘Let It Grow’, cries out for the new Eric to last and flower above aii his previous musical plateaus
Side One begins with the traditional Motherless Children’, especially im portant to Clapton since he was an illegitimate child, living with grandparents and stepparents since an early age. The song is Not done as a lament, but rather as an upbeat, rocker in which Jamie Oidaker's
drumming is particularly inportant in making this song work. The second song is a Clapton written tune called ‘Give Me Strength’ which includes one of his two dobro leads on the album. Instead of continuing his reputation as a “blow you off the stage guitarist”, he has chosen the dobro to do his extended lead work with. Following this song is Johnny Otis’ ‘Willie and the Hand Jive’ which is done rather mournfully compared to the original but nonetheless is still enjoyable. A Clapton-Elliman penned song ‘Get Ready’ is the next number. Yvonne Elliman who was Mary Magdelene in “Jesus Christ Superstar” and is married to Bill Oakes, President of the Robert Stigwood
Organization, is Clapton's new singing partner a pleading improvement over Bobby Whitlock and on this song she and Clapton combine to form a slinky, teasing number. Sings Elliman to Clapton:
“You've got a lot of nerve dishing out what you takewaggling your piece of meat.” The last song on side one is a reggae number which we've ali heard over and over, Bob Marley's ‘ Shot the Sheriff’. it is definitely not the highlight of
tne album but it would be more enjoyabie if we hadn't been deluged with it by top 40 radio in the last few months.
Side Two starts out with a beautiful version of Elmore Jarnes’ ‘ Can't Hoid
Out’. It's Clapton at some of his biuesie
best, and the best is yet to come. ‘Please Be With Me’ by Charlies Scott Boyer is next with Clapton's voice never better. A very folky, crooning song, Clapton's and Elliman’s voices are closely blended with Clapton's dobro singing what the voice can't. If these two songs had not made the album worth it already, the next song, ‘Let it Grow clinches it. It is a 1969-1970 Clapton song with evident George Harrison influence. Its full-sounding rich ness and biending of vocals and instruments including a synthesizer combined with a chord sequence on a bridge similar to the bridge of ‘Something’ and ‘While My Guitar Gently Weeps’ and you have the prime cut of the album. Robert Johnson, who Clapton calls his
“guru”, wrote the next song, ‘Steady Rollin’ Mann’. The guitar work is good but hardly outstanding with Clapton seeming- ly holding back, content to play adequate leads but not more. The last song is ‘Mainiine Florida’ written by rhythm guitarist George Terry. The song is mediocre rock with an overdubbed guitar work ending the album on a dull note. Clapton's band: Cari Radie on bass,
1 just made love to 25,000 people
Janis Joplin. The name invokes visions of feathers and belis, a swaggering mystic shouting from a stage, thousands rising to their feet for a tune from a red-hot mama who sang the bives. A legend, a myth, a tragic figure in rock history, “Pearl” lived a fascinatingly complex, sadly short life
Buried Alive. Myra Friedmans’ detailed biography of Janis Joplin, is more than a highly readable portrait of inevitable tragedy
Buried Alive is a kaleidoscopic view of the sixties - a decade as enigmatic as Joplin herself
Through Ms. Friedmans extraordinary skill as a storyteller one sees Janis Joplin
develop against the mass schizophrenia of San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles. Even from her happy, “normal” childhood, one denotes a sense of
unavoidable doom, as if even the most domestic of scenes will play a role in her wntimely demise Thwarted from adolescence by those who scomed her clumsy body and bad complexion, she learned early the art of escapism. (Once, while studying art at the University of Texas, Janis was nominated Ugliest Man
on Campus. She fied to San Francisco.) In the words of the author: “Chronic
suicide is what Janis was engaged in throughout her life, the act taking this or that form alono the way and penetrating all areas of her tortured existence.”
It is to Ms. Friedmans’ credit that Buried Alive is neither a starry-eyed tribute to the singer nor a melodramatic condemnation of “Pearl”, her drugs, her booze, or her “pretty young boys”. Rather, the book displays the contrasts in Joplin’s life through a series of vignettes; the basically frugal Joplin picking up enormous drinking tabs, and hopefully the

affection of the revelers; Janis going to a ballet dressed in the “lady” she'd always wanted to be; and the star of the Monterey Festival inviting her mother toa European concert tour
Best of ail, Sule Olive 's a portrait of a human struggling with the most
Ms. Friedmans’ eyes we see the battle rage as Joplin drowns her desire for acceptability, for assimiliation, in quarts of Southern Comfort and gross sexual braggadocio
Myra Friedmans’ ive is an intelligently written, sympathic, fiercely personal story of a true casualty of the sixities. More than an admirer, Ms Friedman writes as friend, advisor, and confidante of her deeply troubled companion. Perhaps only Friedman understood the real nature of Janis Joplin's existence as the singer joked about writing anew song; “I'm going cai! it”, she bellowed, “ Just Made Love to 25,000 People But I'm Goin’ Home Alone!”

Dick Sims on organ, Aibhy Galuten on piano and synthesizer, Jamie Oldaker on drums, Yvonne Elliman on acoustic guitar and harmony vocals, and George Terry on second guitar and vocais ail compliment Clapton's music but none seem to have the virtuosity to inspire Clapton's playing the way he “bounced” off of Allman, Bruce, Nayal etc. “461 Ocean Boulevard” shows a happier Clapton, a beautiful singing duet of Clapton and Elliman due to his much improved vocals, but it lacks even one song to reinstate Clapton as a quitar

Nixon: scot free

For months members of the press have been subjected to unrelenting complaints to the effect that their deliberate efforts have prolonged the whole Watergate affair beyond its natural ife
think am not alone in saying as a writer that for quite some time have anxiously looked toward the day when would never again have to comment on any aspect of the matter
Nave anticipated with relish never again having to spell out the odious name of Richard Nixon
As of last week it seemed as if might get my wish. Despite lingering worries that such as finally did happen might, nhac 6become reiativeily convinoad that Nixon would end up the proviem of the udiciary and that he had at last quit public politics for good
Once more must remind myself that where Nixon is concerned there is never any such thing as never Like Dracula Nixon possesses the secret of the undead

The announcement that Nixon would be allowed to destroy the White House tapes in ten years enfiames such SUSPICIONS
SO it Now seems as if Nixon's crimes will x unpunished. This man who contrivec to Subvert the entire system of laws Of a great nation for purposes of self aggraddizement, this man who bombed cities on Christmas Day and raved about attacking criminals without pity, will retire fo Mis mansion with his money to plot whatever perfidious revenge he can execute. would not be shocked to find him on @ ballot again somewhere some

Far worse is the darmnage Ford's pardon will GO the political future of the nation as @ body. Now the full story of Watergate will De unlikely ever to emerge. The pervasive Cynicism toward government that Mr. F Ord Nad sOugnt Oo amneliorate wil!

Constitutional experts say that Ford's move erects an unbroachable stone wal! around Nixon and that it could not be repeaied even by the new president himseif
However, Nixon is still liable to civil action amd to state and local criminal prosecution. One hopes that those who were Gamaged by Nixons machinations, which includes at the very least everyone on the enernves list. will take their legal remacies and that prosecutors § in Washington and California will see their Guty more claarly than did Mr. Ford. And if Ford attempts to balk justice any further then he too must be subjected to investigation
All of this is mandated not by some perverse national need for vengeance but rather out of self protection. Seeing to it that would-be dictators are brought to JUSTIC® IS NO More vindictive than driving a Stake through the heart of a vampire

There is also likely to be an attack on CIA funding fronts in efforts to limit the Agency's spending to what CONgress approrpiates

Crowded
Being a freshman from a smail high school, it is completely new to me to see such a large amount of people at one school
One thing don't understand is how a university with as much spirit and pride as East Carolina is supposed to have, can
: allow sO many more students than they 7 have facilities for. In otherwords, it really : infuriated me to learn of the girls who carne here to learn that they were to live in the infirmary or in condemned “Ragsdale Hall”. To think of the poor people from out of state being turned away from the ampus completely to find other living accomodations
am an out of state student, but lucky for me! have a room. is East Carolina that desperate for money?
see more dogs around here with better living accomodations than some of these students
Maybe don't know al! the facts but have friends in Ragsdale and the nfirmary. don't know if they were told before they came here or not. Had come here Sept. 9 and had someone to tell me
that had to live off campus or in a
condemned dorm or even the infirmary;
East Carolina wouldn't have gotten one
cent of my money
as sincerely hope as a concerned student « that ECU will lear to say no or offer @ classes in pitching tents

Nixon
To Fountainhead
The editorial commentary by Steve Levine of September 10, 1974 impressed me very much except that would like to disagree with him on one thing. Richard Nixon is not an evil person. No person is evil. can tell by your letter that you are not too intellectual when it comes to religion and American literature.
Believe me, loved your style of writing - it was beautiful but your ideas scare me to death. , at the tender age of 16, supported Richard Nixon; at the age of 19, campaigned and voted for McGovern.
You must be either agnostic or a racist. No human being is evil. Evil is a thing. Evil is the devil.
Piease do not condemn me, wanted Richard Nixon out of office just as much as you did
The only real political world 1900's tragedy that ever happened in the United States of America was just last decade, when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. Americans, sane Ameri- cans, try to live, we try to love; Richard Nixon tried to restore World Peace. Now, as remember back in March seeing Washington, D.C. (except by an Eastern Airline Jet) for the first time in my life forgive him, why can't we all.
Please, we are above heathenness, we have the “green light” to go ahead and repair the darnage created by the war at Kent State University
Sincerely, Pamela S. Broughton Registered Democrat
P.S. Just of mild curiosity, are you from Salem, Massachusetts and what do you think about the situation in Ireland?
Buffalo
To Fountainhead :
indeed, last year was the year of the Buffalo; this year must be the year of the motorcycle
Anyone can own 4a motorcycie, it requires no special intelligence, just the required monetary investment. In the sare vein, it requires no "oe ntelli » to ride one, either am nal the special cretin who rides his iron steed up and down in back of Garrett dorm at odd hours. Why? For the best resons-THE CHICKS ARE LOOKING! And if the gnat-like buzzing of their tiny YAMAHA is not enough, the bomber-ike drone of the Harleys completes the menagerie
So please, have to suffer the indignity of having freshmen and their loud stereos in my supposedly upper class dorm; the loud bikes (with their attendant habit of trying to kill me as walk the streets) are

It seems logical to conclude that the existence of any type of government or for that matter any organization, hinges upon the actions of its citizens or members. Again, one may conciude that the actions of these members are shaped by rules and regulations which generate from those in leadership positions. Naturally the severity or the softness of rules, regulations and policies is determined by the desires, demands and goals of those who have the authority to formulate them. For instance, one finds that general regulations and policies governing students at Louisburg College differs greatly from those at the University of North Carolina. Perhaps a better example is that regulations concerning co-educational dorms and visitation differ significantly at the state supported institutions of North Carolina State Uiversity and East Carolina University. Why do these and other inconsistencies exist at state supported institutions? Perhaps these answers are numerous and in many instances, compiex and confusing. Despite this face, strongly feel the foremost reason for the existence of inconsistent regulations and policies is the student. Students have become extremely docile in their thinking. Although we, as students, complain quite often about University policies and regulations we find ourselves on obvious occasions accepting these decisions without attempting to provide input into the initial stages of the decision-making process
In addition, many students complain about SGA policies and programs. Although Criticism in numerous cases is definitely justified, few students attempt to get involved to the point of deciding these policies and program. A given student government has unlimited possibilities, however, before any substantial results can be attained, positive actions in terms of involvement must occur The crux of my argument is the fact that students should make a very positive effort to shape the many rules, regulations and policies which the University and student government thrust upon them. Without a doubt, in my opinion, the best method to accomplish this vital goal is to become a member of the student government legislature. There is no other organization on campus which has the authority to deal directly with student needs and problerns. Membership in the jegisiature enables the Student to become acutely aware of the significant activities which often escape the eyes of most students. However, the main point and one which cannot be overly stressed is the fact that the student will have a definite and often strategic say so in University and student government policies.
Finally each student should realize you don't have to major in political science or minor in Watergate affairs to be a legislator. Perhaps the only real requirement is a genuine desire on the part of the student to contribute a small portion of his time and efforts to the general well-being of his fellow students. In fact, only Monday afternoons will be consumed by serving on the legislature (4:00-7:00).
Think about it you have through Friday to fil! out a brief application in the SGA offices. strongly feel that if any meaningful programs are to be developed this schoo! year, a certain “campus consciousness” must initially develop on the part of each Student.
Sincerely , Bob Lucas SGA President



Trash

To Fountainhead
This afternoon we decided to go out to the Mali, put down a blanket, and enjoy the cool breeze and creeping shade of early autumn. To our great dismay, we could not find the Mal! at all. What was once a green bed of grass crisscrossed by a white maze of concrete had become one of those “No Dumping Allowed” areas where everyone throws their trash
Not giving up our search for the Mail, we proceeded on our joumey across campus. Arriving at Wright Circle, we were halted in our tracks by a sinus opening stench which permeated the air. Upon further investigation, we
identified the source to be Wright Fountain, that multicolored man-made geyser of algae.
Overwhelmed by the odor, we crawled
ernest ODIO ERIS
to the Mail in search of a breath of fresh air, only to find ourselves at eye level with 2,317 Dixie cups, 143 Stewart sandwich wrappers, 8 Hershey bars, 96 Carolina Dairy milk cartons, 4 News and Observers, and 831 Fountainheads. Swimming in a sea of garbage was almost too much, but fortunately, both of us were rescued by a Kampus Kop who, obviously having had his lifesaving course, stripped down to his boxer shorts and extended his night stick to us. We were saved, but we never found the Mali
it isn’t too difficult to throw your trash in the can. How about trying it? You might like your campus a little more once you see 't. Remember - if you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
Sincerely , Bill Byrd Linda Carrel

The Aztec Empire. It's long gone. However Modern man is rediscovering its secrets.
A key to the rediscovery is the Sun Stone, a sort of time-capsule that outlines the history of the Aztecs and, according to Montezuma" Tequila, what the Aztecs liked to drink and when they liked to drink it
Within the inner ring of the Sun Stone are twenty symbols one for each day of the Aztec week. Each symbol also sug gests what kind of drink might be appropriateto , serve on that day

Before joining ECU to organize and establish the institute, Willis wags the
Alumni asst. named
By TOM FRANK Staff Writer
“I's a big thing—helping people,” explained the new Assistant Director of Alumni Affairs, Thurman R. “TR” Pierce. “It's great seeing people have a good time and knowing that I'm part.”
Pierce is two weeks into his new position at the ECU Alumni Office in Jenkins Hail. A 1965 graduate of Rocky Mount High School, Pierce spent three years in the Army before accepting a position with Belk-Tyler in Ahoskie. He began his college career at Wesiyen College in Rocky Mount before transferring to ECU. Pierce will graduate in Novernber with a B.S. in Business Adrmnistration
In his three years here as a student, Pierce was a member of Phi Beta Larndda, a national business fraternity, and served as Vice President and Public Relations Office in the fraternity.
Pierce describes his position as “a 1ason between the Alumni and the University.” He helps coordinate public- ations to the Alumni, attends various chapter meetings of the Alumni Association in area communities and States, and heips in various other aspects of the Alumni He will coordinate some of the events of Homecoming Weekend, November 1-3. The Alumni Office will traditionally sponsor a buffet breakfast on Saturday, Nov. 1, and an informal social with live music after the football game
Other services of the Alumni Office nclude keeping current addresses of al! graduates, providing low-cost group travel (this year a Carribean Cruise), and providing a life insurance policy. Under two separate funds, the Office also solicits funds from alumni and private businesses and uses these funds to “enhance academic progress, and provide scholar- ships to students and academic research, says Donald Y. Leggett, Director of Alum! Affairs and Foundations
director of the Farmville Economic Council, the first full-time industrial development office established east of Raleigh
Willis is a 1948 graduate of Wake Forest University. He served as assistant city manager for Raleigh from 1948-1950, and as city manager in Newton 1950-1956. He then served as an industrial engineer with the N.C. Deparment of Conservation and Development before returning to his native Pitt County in 1957
During his career Willis has participated in the locating of more than 200 industrial plants. He is the originator of the first operational computer industrial location program
ABOUT THE BUILDING
The spacious new building is 16,000 square feet and is a modern, one story structure at Reade and First Streets in downtown Greenville, on a. site overlooking the Tar River. The land was purchased from the Greenville Redevelop- ment Commission.
The building will contain staff offices, conference rooms, a drafting room, an exhibit room for eastern North Carolina product displays, a library and a 300 seat auditorium. The $556 000 cost was funded in part by the state, the U.S. Economic Development Administration and the Coastal Plains Regional Commission.
Dr. Jenkins said “The ECU Regional Development institute is playing an impcertant role in the growth and development of eastern North Carolina, and this new facility will help us to better serve our people and the state
The entire regional development institute story, its achievements, its projects to assist eastern North Carolina economically, to improve its quality of living, was described by Jenkins as a “classic” one-man effort. “Over the years he’s (Willis) done a marvelous job,” Jenkins said.
The new building will be officially dedicated next month.

Bus service expands, adds new stops
By MIKE TAYLOR Staff Writer
Bus service offered to stude: ts by the student transportation system nas been expanded this year accord 1g to Transportation Director Richard Folsom
The expanded bus service inciudes stops on three new apariment Complexes
Those new stops on the bus routes are at King’s Row, River Bluff and Tar River
Apartments OFF CAMPUS BUSING
The Transportation Director explained
that extra stops yff ampus were recessitated by the housing situation that b P students ¢ Und therm se! ves thc Yea;
W t oA many Students VING if ye ale apart ment npiexes it wa jecided this summer that to offer as gow i DUS Service aS possibile that we snou x00 ne stoos FoiIsom explainec

The Transportation Director aiso noted at resentiy tnere seems t be a Sappointment among some students nat t service t NM campus students is ¥ tect
AN ADDITION BUS
T tr
y and aid this inconvenience, admitted that the idea of adding a third bus, one that wouid be used strictly Campus as a shuttie bus, is being onsidered
lf a third bus was added in this type Situation t would be used to Cafry students from the dorms on the hill down to the class compiex and aiso from the jiris dorms to the classroom area Dus would cost
Folsorr
Such a new in the
$10,000 category and might possibly be added this year, but the Transportation
Director was quick to add that the new bus dea would first have to be given a lot more onsideration and then would have to go before the SGA for approval
Right now it is definitely an idea, one that think will come before the SGA sometime early in the year But, what happens to it them is up to them.” Folsom continued
Early reviews of student use of the two buses so far this year Nave pleased Folsom
think nght now we Nave more peopie using the buses than last year But, stil! like to see more students use this
Folsom explained ng the students a
would service think we are offer:
J00d, worthwhile service, the only trouble s that some students are not taking advantage ot it.” Folsom continued
BUS SCHEDULES
fat
mm Director admitted the reason that t using the service as much S because they are not fully f the services offered schedules posted everywhere people who don't know where a u Stops are. think it would be i good Gea for students who Nave a little time to spare one day to just get on a bus avi nde around the route to see where it Joes and Now they can take advantage of t, Folsom pointed out
The Transportation Director also noted that the bus service and the new parking area at the Allied Health Building near Pitt Plaza offered students an alternative to the frustrations of looking for a parking place » Campus
Students can park at the Allied Health Building, then wait for a bus and ride over to the main campus for their classes. When classes are over, they can then catch a bus at several places and ride back to their cars,” Folsom explained
Foisom noted that some iack of student participation on the bus routes at apartments was a matter of concern
“It cost to add routes to the system and they just don't pay off unless students use the buses,” Folsom explained
The Transportation particularly talking about a participation at Tar River
would really ke to students fron that service. If the might

added to the routes Folsom said that at laast one request for bus service has been denied so far
Folsom said a request to extend service to Greek houses down Fifth Street had to be denied this summer
This was an area where it would have required sending a bus through downtown and the time element involved would raally nave siowed the schedule.”
But, Folsom contended that if any group of students feit they had an adequate number of students who wanted to add a new stop should contact him
‘Because we could not add this stop does not mean we dont want to add stops. We are always looking for ways to improve the service. If anyone has a suggestion hope they let us know about it,” Folsom continued
While expansion of the system was one high point of the new bus system, Foisom noted that new schedules had been posted around campus
Permanent wooden schedules were erected this summer as well as cardboerd posters in buildings around campus. And Folsom also had smail pocket size bus schedules printed up

Student Center Tuesday, Sept. 24 Scheduled for the Centers multi- purpose room, Gerni’s ECU appearance will consist of two trick shot exhibitions, at 4 p.m. and at 8 p.m. No admission will be charged to persons wishing to attend. The 25 year old Gerni has been a professional since 1970. He previously
won ne ingiana Cnampionsnip at tne age of 16 and was a finalist in the 1970 National Amateur Tournament. The son of a minister, Gerni began his billiards practice in the recreational room of his father's church.
Gerni believes that a great revival of interest in pocket billiards has begun to reach peopie of all ages and backgrounds, rather than just the “slick-talking hustiers” and “knuckle breakers in the back alley.”
Newspaper course is offered
ECU isamong 180 colleges and universities in the nation who will offer college credit to persons who complete requirements for the second national “Courses by Newspaper’ program, scheduled to begin soon
The second newspaper course, entitled ‘In Search of the American Dream’ will begin during the week of Sept. 29 in 273 daily and weekly American newspapers. The final reading will be printed during the week of Feb. 8
Each week the participating news- papers will print one of the course “lectures”, each dealing with an aspect of America’s history and society. The lectures are written by distinguished professors, three of whom have won Pulitzer Prizes.
Dr. Ronaid S. Berman, chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, the funding agency for the program, said the topics in the newspaper course are particularly relevant “for consideration of the forthcoming Bicentennial.”
Dr. Fred Ragan of the ECU Dept. of History is instructor for the contact session, and Alien Churchill of the ECU Division of Continuing Educaiton is the campus program coordinator
Thank you East Carolina
you did it!

Churchill said the on-campus session is scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 7, and the examination for Sat. Feb. 8, 1975. Both sessions begin at 10 a.m. and end at 1 p.m
Applications for credit for the newspaper course are availabie from the ECU Division of Continuing Education, Boc 2727 Greenvilie.
He Says his aim is to give the gare “an image completely different from the atmosphere of the old-time poo! hall.”
“Gone are the dingy mahogany tables, gach lighted by a single bulb hanging from the ceiling,” Gerni stresses. “Billiards has acquired a new look.”
“Sales of tables have more than tripled in the past two or three years in this country as a result of the opening of farnily billliards centers, designed along the lines of bowling lanes.”
Gerni has performed his exhibition shots in shopping maiis, sports shows, colleges and other locations throughout the nation. He has also appeared on the Merv Griffin show and other television talk shows and has organized several major tournaments.
His high run (consecutive ball pocketed) is 152 for exhibition and 108 for tournament competition

The “pockets of excellence” concept was developed by Dr Leo W. Jenkins in 1971 in anticipation of being awarded a Short-Term Leave Grant by the Danforth Foundation of St. Louis. At the time of this grant Dr. Jenkins planned to travel in Europe, visiting and observing at places were excelience nad been achieved
Although Dr. Jenkins was the recipient of the Short-Term Leave Grant, conditions would not allow him to travel abroad as planned He spent the time of his leave in extensive travel of the U.S
However, the “pockets of excellence” concept was not forgotten. Dr. Jenkins submitted to the Z. Smith Reynoids
specialist and in the US. t ex ‘PL eNnOoe

ideas are dynamic
Foundation in Winston-Salem a proposal for funds to aliow persons other than himself to travel to various “pockets of excellence” in the world. Funds for his proposal were awarded by the Z Smith Reynolds Foundation, and during 1972-73 the project investigators made their trips and observations
The Pockets of Excellence Conference on Oct. 17 is designed to provide them the means to present their findings
The Pockets of Excellence Conference will be heid in the new ECU Regional Development Institute facilities in Greenville. There is an expected attend- ance at the conference of 300 or more leaders of Eastern North Carolina drawn from industry, business, education, the fine arts, government and public service. It is the express purpose of the conference to take the initial steps in the transiation into reality in Eastern North Carolina of the ideas and suggestions presented by the project investigators
Dr. Leo W. Jenkins envisions the continuation of the “pockets of excellence’ concept in time. He looks

Pirates moveto second win
By JOHN EVANS Sports Editor
East Carolina took advantage of several key playS and outmanned a surprisingly stubbom East Tennessee State squad, 24-8, before 16,226 at Fickien
7 Stadium Saturday
Led once again by sophomore signal alled Mike Weaver, the Pirates chalked up
44 yards along the ground to roll up a 24-0
lead before substituting freely in the final
period The Pirates swept to a score the first time they had the ball, traveling 80 yards in 14 plays before halfback Bobby Myrick bulled over from the one for a 7-0 iead Weaver provided the steam for the drive with a 17 yard run and then a 22 yard pass ‘ mM pletion to tight end Benny Gibson. Those two plays moved the ball
F to the ETSU 33. From there the Pirates
Sed nine plays to travel the remainder of the way for the score
The Pirates kept East Tennessee backed deep in its own territory for most of half. On their first two the game, the East Tennessee State Buccaneers started from
7 their own five and then from the seven
With the opening of the second period, the Pirates mounted a drive which carried therm to first and goal at the nine. After Weaver rolled to the two, the Tennessee
defense stiffened. Pete DiDonato stopped
Don Schink for no gain, Schink furnbled on
the next play and State’s Benny Denton
overed the ball in the end zone for a
touchback
Even with this break, the Buccaneers could not mount any offensive attack and the Pirates traded punts with the Bucs
before Tom Chipok took over the East Carolina offense at the seven
From the seven, Chipok commandeer-
oe ec a 3 yard drive. Early in the drive, Ge Chipok put together back to back runs
which would move the Pirates into scoring
s position. The big play came when Chipok

struck with a 61 yard scamper through the Buccaneer defense. The play carried the Pirates ail the way to the East Tennessee 26. Mixing his plays, Chipok led the offense the rest of the way, turing to Myrick for the score from the one vard line
East Carolina scored once more before the end of the half when Jim Woody booted a 45 yard field goal. The kick followed a fake punt which brought the Pirates to the 28. With the field goal, Woody became the Pirates’ top career fieid goal kicker with ten. His three extra points gave the senior booter a career total of 44, three shy of the school record.
The Pirates’ dominance of the first half allowed East Tennessee only 58 yards offensively on 19 plays. The deepest Buccaneer penetration was to their own 43
The Buccaneer offense came alive against the Pirates in the second haif. On
the haif’s first series, halfback Pierre Hawshaw and fullback Bob Hardy combined for 63 yards along the ground to the ECU 13. The “Wild Dog” defense, burned earlier in the drive by Hardy's 32 yard sweep, suddenly came alive as Reggie Pickney, and then Billy Hibbs threw the Bucs for losses back to the 18 From the 25, Buccaneer placekicker Bobby Neff missed a field goal try It would be late in the fourth quarter before East Tennessee wouid threaten again. First, however, the Pirates would rive for another score With Weaver back at quarterback, the urple and Gold drove to the Buccaneer 7. On first down, Weaver rolled out and it Theodore Ashford on a 37 yard ouchdown pass. Woody's kick gave the irates their final point and a 240 lead going into the final stanza.
The ‘fourth quarter found East
ECU clubbers win opener
Terry Ramos and Ricky McKay teamed with a stingy defense to lead the East Carolina club football team to a 13-0 opening game victory over conference foe Virginia Commonwealth
Ramos, with 145 yards rushing, and McKay, 88 rushing yards, led a powerful single wing offense past the Rams
The Pirate defense gave notice that it is as strong as ever, holding the Rams at bay the entire game. The Rams threatened only twice in the game, driving to the Pirate 20 in the first half before safetyman Chad Chadwick came up with the squad's first interception of the year. The team’s other drive carne on their final possession when they drove to the ECU 23. At the 23, VCU fumbled away the bail and their final opportunity to score.
The rest of the game's offensive play was monopolized by the Pirate squad. In the first naif, the Pirates drove deep into Virginia Commonwealth territory several times, but could not push the bail

over. The clubbers did salvage six points from Frank Saunders. Saunders, a bare-toed kicker, connected on tries of 22 and 33 yards to give the club a 6-0 halftime

quickly to a score. Ramos returned a you punt 35 yards to the Ram 38 yard line. Emie Wruck then hit end Chip Burden for 25 yards to the eleven. Three plays later, fullback Ike Sherlock capped the drive with a one yard carry for the score. Saunders added the conversion to give the Pirates a 13-0 jead.
East Carolina threatened once again in the final period when Wruck raced up the sidelines for 37 yards, putting the bail on the VCU 24. The ECU club could move the ball no further, however, and Saunders’ 47 yard goal attempt was far short of adding to the Pirates’ point totai.
On defense, the Pirate clubbers were weil in control throughout the game. The defensive line, led by Bobby Brandon and Jonn Mc Milian, pressured the Ram quarterback into severai interceptions.
The ciub’s next contest will be at home next weekend against Western Piedmont Community College. The contest, scheduled for Saturday at 2:00, will be the first time the two squads have ever met.
Tennessee's previously subdued offense opening up against the Pirates’ defensive substitutes
Twice the Buccaneers drove deep into Pirate territory behind tne fine running of Hardy and freshman George Fugate. Hardy, the game's leading ground gainer with 130 yards, triggered the first drive with a 50 yard run. Had Hardy not run into his own blocker, Ronnie Byrd may never have made the stop at the 22. East Tennessee drove deeper to the Pirate ten, but on third and nine, Danny Kepiley downed quarterback Lee Trawick for a five yard loss at the 15. Trawick’s ten yard run on the next play proved insufficient and the Pirates took over the bai!
The final State drive proved more fruitful. Fugate led the drive with a 22 yard carry to the East Carolina 42. From the 38, reserve quarterback Gary Jennings found senior Bo Howard on a 20 yarder to the 18. At the 18, Pierre Harshaw took Jennings’ pitch and found Howard in the rear of the end zone for the score. 3 seconds later tie season's second game came to an end with East Carolina on top, 24-8
The East Tennessee State squad proved to be more of a match for the Pirate wishbone than expected. Despite yielding 418 yards, tne Buc defenders forced the Pirates to punt seven times. Defensively, linebacker Pee Wee Brown and Ken Gaiter stood out. Brown and Gaiter totalled 18 tackles between them
On offense, the Pirate defense simply was too much for the young and inexperienced Buccaneers. Only in the final period, against a defense saturated with reserves, did East Tennessee show any punch. Freshman Fugate and senior Hardy did perform well in the Buccaneer backfield, however.
With their second contest under their belts the Pirates must prepare for Southern lilinois. The Salukis always prove to be a tough foe for the Pirates and will probably pose a stiffer test than either of the Pirates first two foes
