Jenkins opposed toECU Med School delay
By MIKE TAYLOR
Co-News Editor
ECU Chancellor Leo Jenkins has taken to task a proposal from N.C. State University
nancellor John T. Caldwell that the ECU med schoo! expansion be delayed
Caldwell, in remarks to a NCSU alumni group last Friday, proposed that construction
(a veterinary school at State and planned expansion of the ECU med schoo! should be
jelayed or financed through bond issues
The State Chancellor, who explained that he was speaking only for his school, told
the Alumni group, “We would never have thought that the General Assembly wouid
odertake to inaugurate a four-year program in medicine at the expense of the Quality of
the existing educational functions of ali state-supported institutions.”
Jenkins, in a prepared text released Monday, contended that to delay would obviously
ost far more in the long run than to complete it now
The ECU Chancellor explained that he did not quite understand Caidwell's suggesting
jelaying both the School of Veterinary Medicine and the East Carolina School of
Medicine as if they are in the same stages of development and can be readily stopped
Surely, he of ali people must realize the difference. The School of Veterinary
Medicine is an idea heading for federal court adjudication and hardly more than in the
planning stages. By contract, the Schoo! of Medicine at East Carolina has been more
than ten years in planning and has actually been in operation for the past three weeks
with faculty on hand,” Dr. Jenkins continued
Jenkins pointed out that with the new Pitt Memorial Hospital presently under
nstruction the time is appropriate to add the Medical Schoo! wing on to the new
hospital at the least possibile expense
Caldwell, who is retiring June 30 from the NCSU post, made his remarks just two
jays after a North Carolina Senate Appropriations subcommittee on education voted to
ncrease in-state tuition rates by $100 and out-of-state rates by $150 beginning Fall
Quarter and to double the present state aid to private higher educational institutions from
4 6 million to $9.2 million
The subcommittee also recommended that the general university expansion fund be
1 mwned by $14.2 million. Another $8 milliof was recommended cut from the research
wea by the subcommittee. Caldwell especially noted the cuts in research budget, cuts

That same subcommittee took no action on a $4 million proposal for outlay of
veterinary school at NCSU.
Caidwell noted, “It will be argued that there is no direct relationship between
reducing our budgets and raising tuition on the one hand and the financing of proposed
expansions on the other hand. submit, however, that if these expansions were
postponed or the capital requirements financed through a bond issue, these impositions,
which fall heavier on North Carolina State University than on any other institution, would
not be necessary.”
Caldwell also took issue with the proposal now in the General Assembly to double
tuition rates for students and double the aid presently being paid by the state to private
colleges and universities
The State Chancellor also took note of the big budget slashes made so far in the areas
of research.
“We could not have imagined that the General Assembly, in order to increase the
General Fund out of which these new ventures are to be financed, would capture the
prudently husbanded overhead research funds which come mainly from its two eminent
universities at Chapel Hill and Raleigh pius to a smaller amount of critical importance of
A&T State University.”
“The fact is,” Caldwell continued, “nevertheless, that a sharp reduction in the quality
of North Carolina State University pius an increase in tuition which will affect the
financial position of several thousand of our students in the system is being imposed in
order to meet expansions elsewhere.”
Caldwell pointed out that he had never uttered a word in opposition to the four-year
medical program at East Carolina. “That has never been a decision or judgernent for me
to make and thank goodness it hasn't.”
The General Assembly, which has been battling in recent weeks to trim over $200
million from the budget for the next two years had made other proposed drastic cuts in
the education area.
Funds to accomodate projected enroliment increases next year have been siashed
and the only major capital outlay item left in the proposed budget is the ECU med school
which carries a $28 million price tag from funds in this budget
Some $7 million has already been shaved from the ECU med school budget since an
arrangement has been worked out to aliow the ECU school to use part of the new Pitt

“There are so many people that have done

Also speaking at the banquet was ECU

(Parsons, a member of Model UN,
fought for - and - won money for several

requests a trip to the Model United Nations
Canterence in New York.)
With the original $450 bill and the $360
Thomason amendment still being debated,

move, which must have a two-thirds vote
by the legisiature, would close all debate
and require quick votes on first, the
amendment, and second, the bill. The
two-thirds vote materialized, and both the
amendment and bill passed
DOr. Blackwell of the Environmental
Health Department had spoken to the
legisiature on the trip before debate and
remained throughout the long discussion
in other SGA business, the Drama
Department's request for a $22,000 budget
for next year was passed unanimously
This requested allocation, like the one
submitted by the Music Department eariier

groups ask for such review and
recommendations to next years SGA so
they can estimate their budget in advance
These two bills are not binding on the
75-76 legisiature, but many in the SGA
feel they will be taken seriously
Mr. Albert Pertalion, of the Drama and
Speech Department, spoke during
questions and privileges about the
request, which is $2,000 more than last
year’s. He cited the 12 percent national
inflation rate and the fact that the

Sewage disposal problem
for trailer park
Shady Knoll Trailer Park, just outside
Greenville, on Munford Rd. is having
sewage problems because of overloaded
septic tanks, according to Pitt County
Sanitarian, Archie Nobles
Shady Knoll has its own water and
sewage supply
The sewer system was constructed by
Leon Raymond Hardee, before the Pitt
County Planning Board set standards for
trailer parks
According to county standards, only
two trailers can use one septic tank
Septic tanks at Shady Knoi! serve three or
four trailers each
“We can't make them re-do the entire
system, but we can suggest ways to
correct the problem,” said Nobles. “Add-
iNg ON More drain lines and leaving some
of the lots vacant will help the situation,
but it would be nearly impossible to
eliminate the problem entirely
“Because of the heavy rains we had
recently, the sewage problem was worse
than it has been in 48 years,” said Nobles
The heavy rains raised the water table in
the ground, and the ground was ful! 0;
water which had nowhere to go
“When the trailer park was Constructed
we didn't have any control over it’ Said
Nobles. “Anyone who wants to build at
trailer park today has to have it approved
by the County Planning Board, the Utilitie
Commission, the local health department
and the state highway department
At one time, a laundromat Served eact

added to the problem because the tank:

“We don't expect problems of this sor
to come up again because of the standards

TOMMY : tremendous in quality and and quantity
By CHUCK NYSTROM
Staff Writer
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK
ALBUM
TOMMY
Pete Townshend has finally got a
nance to bring his masterpiece TOMMY
to life as a movie One of the beneficial
side effects of this is a new album with
new people singing the various roles from
TOMMY. Indeed, one of the weaknesses
f the original TOMMY is that all the roles
were sung by members of the WHO. The
new TOMMY is a more complete album
than either of the previous TOMMY's with
more complicated and varied perfor
mances and arrangements
Normally, would think this album is a
npoft, but after listening to the beauty of
the music and the intricate changes
Townshend added would Say this is a very
omplete work that Surpasses the other

some awkward lyr changes). Several

places (perhaps due to being mixed too
softly)
TOMMY starts off with a musical
intraoduction by Pete Townshend entitied
“Prologue 1945” allowing Townshend to
show off some synthesizer playing and
introducing the audience to the musicai
themes of TOMMY. Townshend next
narrates the background of Tommy's birth
in a pleasant tune “Captain Walkerit's a
Boy.” In “Bernie's Holiday Camp’
Tommy's mother, Nora, ahd her lover,
Frank, are introduced to the audience
This is anew song that was added
In “1951What About the Boy”,
Tommy's father is somehow disposed of
and Torhimy is told that he didn't see or

next sings about Tommy's dream world

Editorials‘SCommentary
Harping on med school
N.C. State Chancellor, John T. Caldwell seems to be getting a bit sassy about ECU
getting its med school since he found out the $14 million cut from the state education
budget included an $8 million slash from the research budget. You see, State is in the
research triangle area and usually gets quite a nice chunk for research
Since he feels slighted for his school, he has decided to try and make ECU suffer the
same fate
He graciously stated Friday in a speech to State alumni, that he had never spoken in
position to the four-year program med school at ECU
That has never been a decision or judgement for me to make and thank goodness,”
he coyly stated
Thank goodness! we added!
n tact, Caldwell is probably very much in favor for us to get the med school. But he
wants US to wait a while, no doubt, until this inflation is over and the cost of establishing
med schools goes down. (Does that imply never?)
Why, Caldwell is so magnanimous that he is even willing to sacrifice the PROPOSED
veterinary schoo! for State. That, of course, is supposed to be a magnificent gesture for
Chancellor Leo Jenkins to follow
That is all really sweet and in the name of brotherhood and higher education, etc
But Caldwell seems to have shoved a few important facts way back into the deep dark
recesses of his mind
First of all, building costs are not likely to go down for some time. In fact, as even
the price of Kool-Aid and bubble gum shows, prices continue to go up each year. The
ost of education is not likely to decrease any in the near future either. Therefore, it
would seem that ten years from now, building a med schoo! here or anywhere else would
ost the state even more and preser' even more of a hardship on the state education
Dudget
Fact number two. The new Pitt Memorial hospital is under way right now (and we all
know hospitals are not thrown up every other week) and the med school has a place
there !t would have cost the state about $20 million to build a med school for use by
ECU students only. But by being incorporated in the new hospital, millions of dollars are
being saved. This is to say nothing of the added prestige to the med school and
t-Memorial by being joined in one facility
joesn't seem to matter to Caldwell. Wonder if he would understand how
advanced plans are for the med school if he saw the frame of the hospital already
nstructed. The veterinary school for state is only an idea and has not even been settled
ompletely (there was some misunderstanding over where the vet school would go, as
A&T State wanted one as well). One would think that a plan not even on the drawing
table yet would be easier to postpone than a plan already under construction.
in this light, Caldwell's magnanimous gesture of Sacrificing his vet school in hopes of
shaming ECU into doing the same thing, doesn't seem quite so ideal.
We're sorry you feel a little left out of the budget this time Mr. Caidweli. But the ECU
Med Schoo! has been in the works for 10 years and it is finally underway. Sacrifice your
vet school if it makes you feel better, but ECU isn't ready to be a martyr for a ridiculous
idea What are we supposed to do? Tear down the girders already in place? Fat chance!

Does education limit?
By HERMAN KAHN
Director of the renowned Hudson institute, Herman Kahn is a futurist, physicist,
mathematician, and specialist in national security affairs. An intemational lecturer as
well as author, his works include On Thermonuciear War, The Year 2000, and The
Emerging Japanese Superstate.
The phrase “trained incapacity” was
coined by Thorstein Veblen, the
economist, to refer to the inability of those
with sociology or engineering training to
understand certain issues which they
would have seen without their professional
education
use the term “educated incapacity” to
describe the increasingly prevalent
situation, especially in the United States
and United Kingdom, where the more
expert - of at least educated - a person is,
the less likely he is to be able to recognize
certain issues and deal with them
appropriately. The very process of
acquiring an education along certain lines
involves selective indoctrination and a very
special intellectual environment. It also
requires the development of a framework,
of accepting givens or facts, and of
learning to think in a certain way. When a
possibility comes aiong that is not
normally part of his accepted framework,
an expert is often less likely to see it than
an amateur
For example, one naturally prefers
health care by a M.D. rather than by a
layman. But when a quite new type of cure
is developed, the last to accept it. The
history of medicine shows the reluctance
of the profession to accept radical new
methods. This is a problem for all
professions. But a new situation exists
today. Large numbers of people raised in
affluent suburbia or other isolated
environments are out of touch with any
contrary intellectual milieu. As a result,
“Educated incapacity” in the United States
at this time seems to be less derived from
a very specific education than from a
general educational political, socia
cultural and intellectual milieu. This
environment finds its clearest form at our
prestige universities particularly in
departments of psychology, sociology,
and history, and to a degree in the
humanities generally.
Thus, in the late 1960's, individuals
raised in this setting or who shared its
preconceptions often found themselves
having difficulty testing, and thereby
genuinely understanding, attitudes of
middie and lower-middie classes, as well
as isues of national security, national
prestige, welfare and race. One who has
‘met a payroll,’ for instance, wil! normally
have a grasp of akind of perspective that
an individual limited to a ‘book-learning
environment will completely MiSs.
Between mid-1965 and mid-1969, and
to some degree today, many of the most
important problems bothering the Middle

To Fountainhead
First, 'd like to make the general
comment that the newspaper under your
direction (editor, Diane Taylor) is just that
a businesslike newspaper By-lines give
authenticity and accountability to the
various articles. Some of us are
wondering if the staff has any idea of
reverting to the former titie, East
Carolinian. The present title was an
outgrowth of the “Rebellious Sixties” and
means little outside of the Greenville area.
The former title has geographical identity
One minor suggestion. The issue
dated 29 April 1975 uses the phrase, en
jocO parentis, in two places. That phrase
iS Latin and should read in loco parentis as
there is no such word as en in Latin
Occasionally us retired professors can
serve a useful purpose. Best wishes in
your future work

consulted the most distinguished
academicians, one would have been
confused as to the nature of these issues
and their likely impact. in fact, the
ignorance of upper-middie class Ameri-
cans on these domestic issues was almost
as complete as that of European and
Japanese press
The ‘law and order issue is a Classic
example of incapacity in educated
analysis. The most prestigious observers
interpreted the phrase as a code term for
anti-Negro sentiments, designed to
mobilize such feelings within the
electorate. They were simply unable,
because of an absence in their own life
experience, to see the color-blind, serious,
substantive problem of safety in the
streets. During this period, most Negroes
in the cities included ‘law and order as
first ammong their concerns
A voter's views on race were a separate
issue. Many progressive sympathizers of
the civil rights movement understood that

is typical of members of the often
guilt-burdened intelligentsia.
How do we deal with the problem of
“educated incapacity?” Most important is
to encourage “reality testing” - or
communicating with individuals in touch
with whatever reality is being studied.
This requires seeking out such people and
then listening to them and believing that
what they say is their perspective. One
may also consult a person with judgment
approved by members of the group one is
attempting to understand, although this is
difficult because there are so few heroes of
Middie America. Another useful approach
to improve insight is to widen participation
in discussions by including views
sometimes thought of as fanatic,
crackpot, or basically unskilled or
uneducated
An ounce of the proper perspective is
often worth pounds of analysis in gaining
insights. A hostile insight can be a very
good way to find defects in a proposal or
analysis. It is not usually very difficult to
find peopie who disagree strongly with
one’s own preconceptions. They should
be sought out, confronted, and carefully
listened to. For exarnpie, political liberals
and anti-militarists are adept at detecti
as, '€ad the best newspapers, OF oneself as a racist. This supersensitivity “"
ee,
incompetence in corporations and the
military, while political conservatives are
good at spotting flaws in social service
programs. Similarly, the friendly insight is
often a good way to discover the good part
of a proposal. What am suggesting is a
duplication of adversary proceedings in
American courts. Each side hires his own
partisan lawyer, the investigation
conducted by each lawyer is likely to be
more thorough than would result from one
by an officially designated neutral
Adversary proceedings can be used in a
research organization. Hudson Institute's
members represent « large range of
positions from the extreme right to left,
from pacifism to views that are close to
advocating preventive war. To consult this
range of positions is very useful and
practical it can help enormously in
uncovering seemingly obvious points and
issues which most members of any
ordinary tearm or study group might not
notice
Why is “educated incapacity” worth
avoiding? Because when one is capable of
understanding the culture in which one
lives, it is wrong not to do so.

According to Dill, foreign service is the
most appealing department of the AP
“We have a tremendous waiting list for
foreign service duty,” said Dili. “The
romantic aspect of foreign duty is one
reason for this huge demand

by local people with American

Athlete of the Month
Suggs dominant force in
Two Saturdays ago, East Carolina
freshman Carter Suggs set the Southern
Conference Track and Field champion-
ships on its ear by winning five events - a
feat no athlete had ever accomplished
before Suggs
And although Suggs’ East Carolina
tearm did not win the meet, the five wins
were good enough to bring Suggs the Most
Valuable athlete award
In addition, Suggs has been nominated
by the East Carolina Sports Information
department as the school’s candidate for
conference Athiete of the Year honors
With all these accolades coming his
way, Suggs will be hard put to improve on
his accomplishments next year, but for
now, he can be satisfied with a job well
done in 1975
And for his role in the conference track
and field championships, ECU coach Bill
Carson is highly appreciative
He's just super,” said Carson, after
Suggs’ five win performance. “He scored
35 points and was in on every event we
won but the shot put.”
And Carson feels the desire is there
‘He came up to me before the mile
relay event (the last event) and said that he
was tired. told him that he had to go on
and race because the most valuable athiete
award was at stake
He looked at me and ail he asked was
if he had to run for the record or just the
win,” continued Carson. “I toid him he
just had to run for the win and he did just
that. went out there and heiped us win.
in addition, Suggs has run with some
of the nations’ top sprinters this year in the
Kansas Relays (where he raced
head-to-head with record hoider ivory
Crockett) as well as running a 9.3, 100-yard
dash time on two occasions
But the 100-yard event, where he is the
state’s top competitor, is not Suggs only
forte. He performs equally weil in the 220
event. as weil as in the 440-yard and mile
relays. in the conference championships,
Suggs proved his diversification by
jumping 23 feet, nine inches in the long
jump
How good are Suggs’ times? His 21.2
best in the 220 is the third best time in the
state, and better than any ACC sprinter has
run this year
In the relays, ECU's 440-tearn is the
best in the State with a 40.9 time and the
mile relay tearm is third in the state
Carter Suggs has come a long way in
his freshman year at East Carolina and
with the Olympic trials approaching the
question arises as to whether Suggs will
try to make the tearm or not
Earlier in the year when asked about his
goals, Suggs replied, “My goai for this
year is to make the NCAA finals and my
overall goals are to set a worid record and
go to the Olympics in 1976. If had to take

The Southern Conference baiked on a
decision concerning the admittance of
Western Carolina into the league when
they voted to table the motion on
Western's admittance Friday
it may be a year before the Catamounts
know whether or not they are in, since the
league tabled Western's application for not
more than 12 months
This would put the next deadiine for a
decision at a time just before present
league member Richmond is scheduled to
leave the conference. Richmond has toid
the league they will pull out in June, 1976
What the conference actually did was
set up a committee to examine the
league's “philosophy into the possibility of
expansion and the procedure to be
followed
The vote was not made public, except
to say the majority was in favor of tabling
the motion. This according to conference
president Francis Bonner of Furman. it
was believed, however, that the vote on
Western's admission was split firmly down
the middie. It would Nave taken six votes
for Western Carolina to be admitted
The special committee is headed
by William and Mary Athletic Director Ben
Carnevale, and consists of one
representative from each school. The

always be remembered for, but the

Time-Out
SOUTHERN CONFERENCE: AT DEATH'S DOOR?
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
Well folks, the Southern Conference has done it again. They have balked on the issue
as to where the conference plans to go in the future in relation to its athletic programs.
Last week, the conference Athietic Directors met in Boone, N.C. for their annual
meeting. Also present were several other conference officials, including league
Commissioner, Germann and Conference President Francis Bonner. Their major purpose
at the meeting was supposedly to decide on whether the conference plans to add new
members after Richmond leaves the conference next June
Well, all they did was vote to table the motion and decide within a year on the
Question of expansion. In essence, put the question off once again.
Unfortunately, the field of journalism several times requires a writer not to release
off the record” information or comments from “unidentified” sources, and this must
spect. But, there are several points of interest found which can relate past my desk,
which might be of interest to the reader
While the conference seems equally split on whether or not to allow Western Carolina
into the conference, there seems to be some backing into expanding the conference to
ten teams
Ten teams. That is interesting. The conference is worried about losing prestige by
allowing weaker schools, academically and athletically, into the conference, and yet
some people feel there is a need for not one new team, but three
The next question which arises is which schools are best to meet this “need”
Well. the leading candidates besides Western seem to be East Tennessee State, Oid
Porte and Virginia Commonwealth. Again, better say these reports are all not
res
ompletely confirmed, but still they are not mildly rumors in my opinion
Even more interesting is that Virginia Commonwealth and Oid Dominion don't have a
arsity football program and we all know the importance of such a program to keep pace
ith the Atlantic Coast Conference
font know. It just seems to me the conference has for so long been trying to
upgrade its reputation (or so they tell the media and everyone else) and then many of its
members talk about letting these schools in. This just seems in contradiction to me,
that s ai
Does the Southern Conference (or those gentlemen who make the decisions for the
conterence) really know what they are doing? value my job too much to answer that
question
But perhaps one of the news media expressed the feeling of “outsiders” best when he
sent a laurel wreath to the commissioner's office following the Conference basketball
tournament, signifying the “death of the Southern Conference”
To allow Western Carolina, Olid Dominion, East Tennessee State or Virginia
ic mmonwealth in the conference would be suicide for the conference
it would better function as a seven-team organization with Qood caliber teams in every
sport. rather than an eight or ten team league made up of haif-football oriented,
Nalt-basketball onented programs
have spoken my piece. Now those with the conference say so, quit beating around
