GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA
ECU Chancellor Dr. Leo Jenkins may
wait as late as next Spring before making a
final decision as to whether to get into the
North Carolina gubernatorial race or not
Jenkins had indicated at a recent
democratic fund-raiser held at Atlantic.
Beach that he would go before the Board
of Governors of the University of North
Carolina to ask for either a leave of
absence or some vacation time to
Fcampaign for governor.
But, such a request to the Board will
not be forthcoming until the first of 1976,
Jenkins indicated in an interview Friday.
The ECU Chancellor indicated that he
was waiting as late as possible to make a
decision. The deadline for filing ‘Ss

“ personally think people are tired of
these year long campaigns. don't think
that it should take a candidate that long to
get his message across to the voters,’
Jenkins explained
“If decide to get into the race then
will campaign for only one month. That
should give me plenty of time to get
around the state and present my views to
the people,” Jenkins added.
A Jenkins’ campaign, in addition to
being short, will also be inexpensive and
direct. the ECU Chancellor explained.
‘The short campaign will help keep
cost down,” Jenkins noted.
And, Jenkins, contended that his
Jenkin’s political plans still pending
campaign would be a straightforward one,
not a ‘Madison Avenue PR job’
think you insult the voter when you
put a candidate out on a fence, stick some
hay in his mouth and pretend that he is a
farmer, or when you take his tie off and put
him in a factory and pretend he is a factory
worker. That kind of Madison Avenue thing
does not fool anyone,” Jenkins continued.
Were he to enter the North Carolina
race, Jenkins would stress the plight of
many of the state’s citizens as his number
one issue.
“Our per capita income is very low.
And, with the resources and labor force we
have this should not be. One of my main
concerns would be to make an all out effort

Trustees
approve
liquor
proposal
The ECU Board of Trustees approved a
proposal Saturday allowing the posses-
sion and consumption of alcoholic
beverages On Campus.
The proposal, drawn up by James
Tucket, dean of student affairs, and S.
Rudoiph Alexander, assistant dean, was
submitted to the Board’s Executive
Committee Wednesday.
The full Board’s approval, however, did
contain stipulations. Among them were
that alcohol could not be bought with
student fees and no drinking would be
allowed in Minges Coliseum
Another stipulation was that alcohol on
campus would not contravene existing
federal, state or municipal laws. A
Greenville statute forbids the use of
alcohol on any public sidewalk, parking
lot, or on any publically leased property.
Diane Taylor, student union president,
said she will meet with ECU attorney, Dr.
GREENVILLE - District Court Judge Robert Wheeler administers the oath to six members
of the ECU Board of Trustees during their meeting Saturday. The Trustees from left to
right are: William H. Stanley, Rocky Mount, N.C John D. Bridges Jr Troy Pate Jr. of
Goldsboro, N.C Ashley B. Futrell of Washington, N.C Jimmy Honeycutt, ECU
Student Government President; and Edward Greene of Dunn, N.C.
David Stevens, this week to formulate a
plan exempting the university from the
restrictive statute. It would require
approval of the Greenville City Council.
The Board also heard a report from
Edwin Monroe, vice-chancellor of health
affairs, that cited a faculty shortage in the
Allied Health and Nursing programs.
In other matters, Dr. Charles Brown,
director of Institutional Development, told
the Board that businesses are doing less
recruiting on campus now. Other than in
science and math, there is a general
shortage of teaching jobs, according to
Brown.
He also reported that the ECU Regional
Development Institute has over 100
projects on its active list.
Speaking to the Board on general
matters, Dr. Leo Jenkins, ECU chancellor,
said the SGA and student newspapers are
moving rather well and he encouraged
professors to speak out On issues.
Book-theft becoming a problem at ECU
By JOHN DAYBERRY
Book-theft at ECU has become a
massive problem, according to the Student
Supply Store Manager, Joseph O. Clark.
“Every year, ECU students lose
thousands of dollars because of
book-theft,” said Clark.
“And much of this loss could be
prevented if students would take a few
precautions.
“As soon as the student is sure that he
will be using his newly bought books, he
should mark them in some way that would
enable him to make positive identification
of them later.’’
This marking procedure, described in
the activity calendars provided by the
Supply Store, consists of circling certain
page numbers in the books, and then
recording the numbers for future
reference.
“If your book is stolen, report it to a
cashier in the Supply Store immediately,”
said Clark.
“If your book is sold back to us later,
we can identify it by your markings.
“We will also know who sold us the
book, since we require that a student
shows positive identification, and an
activity card before we buy books from
him, or her.” :
Since many book-thefts occur in the
vicinity of the Supply Store, students
should put their books in a locker ou'side
of the store, instead of leaving them on the
shelves, according to Clark.
When a student is thought to have sold
a stolen book to the Supply Store, his or
her name is sent to the dean of men, or the
dean of women, according to Clark.
“ act as a processor in the case of
suspected book-theft,” said James b.
Mallory, dean of men.
“Book-theft is an Honor Council
offense, and it is the council which tries
the suspected thirf.
“Personally, have no sympathy for

For the first class to be admitted, the
med school must have a two year faculty

carefully worked out plans for a residency
program to begin not later than the first

To establish a medical school many
steps must be taken
“Among other things, an educational
program at the graduate level must be
established along with a post graduate
education internship and residency
program and a program of continuing
educaiton as well,” said Laupus.
“To do this a faculty must be recruited
in basic and clinical sciences. We already
have most of the faculty because of the
former med schoo! at ECU. We now have
12 basic science instructors and three
clinical faculty members.”
Search committees are currently
recruiting seven chairman and eleven more
faculty members which will make the
faculty total 35 for the med school
The faculty must perform well in two
major roles, according to Laupus
“They must perform well in education,
said Laupus. “They must give high quality
education to the student body in

Board action overdue
lt was along time coming but finally the Board of Trustees has seen the light
and agreed to allow the use of alcoholic beverages on campuslegally that is.
For many years, since the invention of alcoholic beverages or the founding
of this campus, whichever .came first, alcoholic beverages have been
consumed on campus.
Now, for the first time, such consumption will be legalat least in certain
locations that will be named later by administration officials.
Approval by the Board on the alcoholic consumption issue is perhaps the
biggest student social gain since the more liberal visitation policy was approved
several years.
And, approval brings another ECU student social policy up to standards with
those at other major state institutions.
Alcoholic consumption on campus has been a norm at many campuses,
both public and private, for many years. And, finally, in 1975, legalized beer
drinking has arrived at ECU.
The Board of Trustees had been wrestling with the question for several
ny ths. The main concern of the group appeared to be the portion of student
p posal that would have allowed free distribution of beer and wine at campus
events. This proposal was cranked out by student government officials who
wanted to circumvent present laws which restrict the sale of such beverages at
campus events.
The Board was unanimously opposed to this proposal, and on that we must
agree with the Board.
Student fees can be used in a lot better manner than buying beer and wine.
While we agree that the availability of such beverages at many events would
certainly be a boost, using fees for their purchase is not a proper use of SGA
revenue.
Using student fees to support clubs, yearbooks and newspapers is one
thing. But, to open up a tap room is something else.
Approval by the Board brings a new day in the social order to the campus.
The Board took the action relying on the Administration to set up responsible
rules for alcoholic beverage consumption and relying on the student for
responsible behavior when consuming that alcohol.
We will now wait and see if both sides can live up to that
responsibilitymost notably the consumer.
Some experiment
When ECU's football team gets to Southern Illinois this week for the football
game, we suggest to Pat Dye and his coaching staff to keep the Pirates gridders
clear of any experimental labs at Sl.
Seems like they have a real drug-sex experiment going on that probably a
few of the Pirates might be interested in.
News stories of a few weeks ago told of federal funding for an experiment at
Southern Illinois calling for male volunteers to inhale marijuana fumes and then
view porno films. The object of the experiment, according to the government at
least, is to test sexual responses of the male under the influence of drugs.
When news of the governmental project got out, there was something
of a mild uproar in some parts of the Carbondale community. More than a few
citizens thought it was a waste of money.
Any Pirate football player, or coach for that matter, who does not return to
Greenville by Sunday, will be assumed to have made a great sacrifice and
donated his body to science, for at least a while.
“Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without
newspapers, or newspapers without government, should not hesitate a moment to
prefer the latter.”

Top ten best seller
While the Student Consumer Union's Food for Thought publication out this
Fall will not make any top ten selling list, the SCU’s efforts to present to the
ECU students a consumer guide in this area are to be commended and
encouraged.
The guide lists Greenville eating establishments by division, their location,
hours of operation, general menu and other valuable information about their
alcoholic consumption rules and their check cashing policy.
And, the new publication presents the students with a few off-the-cuff
editorial comments about the quality of the food to be found at the
establishments. Comments like “the food is not worth the drive, service is
super-slow and food is usually hot and pretty good” tell the students what he
really needs to know in a hurry about a place to calm his growling stomach.
The guide also gives students valuable information, especially in dealing
with check cashing policy. More than a few students pay for meals, and about
everything else for that matter, with a check.
And, unfortunately more than a few places will not accept checks these
days, especially from students.
The guide can tell the student whether or not this particular business will
accept the check.
And, if it stopped tthe guide would be well worth while fromthis aspect
alone. But, the hours of operation, general menu and those editorial comments
serve to make the guide a most useful publication for ECU students.
This is the type of program that we like to see the SGA sponsor. Guides for
other areas that the student consumer is involved in should also be
forthcoming.
Food for Thought might not make most people’s top ten reading list, but it is
well worth the time for ECU students to browse through this guide.

By JACK ANDERSON
with Les Whitten ,
WASHINGTON—Members of Congress,
newly blessed with a salary boost and
already loaded with fringe benefits, have
for years been chiseling the Navy for free
dental care.
The rooster of legislators illegally
getting root-canal work, deluxe fillings,
dental surgery and even new plates reads
like the leadership pages of the
Congressional Directory.
Senate Majority Leader Mike Mans-
field, D-Mont Senator Mark Harfield,
R-Ore and ex-Senator Norris Cotton,
R-N.H are only a few of the solons whose
smiles reflect free custom care at the
top-notch Navy Yard clinic.
Former Health, Education and Welfare
departmental dentists, chose instead to
patronize the Navy. Even prominent
foreign diplomats were sneaked into the
Clinic.
Navy regulations, and human decency,
require dentists to take care of patients in
‘a true emergency. Such appears to be the
case when Sen. William Proxmire, D-Wis
went to the clinic he broke his tooth on
a prune pit in a Senate restaurant.
Sen. Charles Percy, F-lll also feels he
comes under the emergency rule because
he needed a filling replaced and wasn’t
scheduled to see his regular dentist in
Chicago for a month.
Rep. L.H. Fountain, D-N.C says his
treatment for a cracked tooth a few days
ago was also an “emergency situation”.
But what of Mike Mansfield, usually as
austere as his spare frame with the
taxpayers money? After treatment of an
abcessed tooth, he has now become a
repeat patient of the Navy Yard’s nationally
known dentist, Capt. Michal Brenyo.
Sen. William Hathaway, D-Me is also
a frequent patient and has been treated for
gum surgery and root-canal work by the
solicitious Navy dentists.
Hatfield underwent even more
extensive work. Originally he dropped in at
the clinic for “swelling of the mouth”. But
over a period of several years, Brenyo has
done much of Hatfield’s dental work,
including costly root canal.
House Speaker Carl Albert, D-Okla
insists his visits to the clinic were for
“minor dental work.” Besides, his retired
military pay status may make the work
legal. Senator COtton, we have learned,
had a dental plate repaired and reportedly
had a new one made. And Rep. Edward
Boland, D-Mass has had extensive gum
invigoration work.
To their credit, all the prominent
patients acknowledged their visits. Few
were as frank as Finch, a former chief aide
to Richard Nixon. Not only did he go, Finch
said but he “saw a number of
Congressmen while was down there.”
Dental experts no longer in the clinic
Congressiona
dental rip-off
have fumed openly abut the illegal work, but
our reporter Gary Cohn visited the clinic
and found everything but an “open wide”
policy.
Commanding officer Stewart Elder,
who has personally greeted such visitors
as Hatfield, successfully dodged all our
queries. When Cohn called him at home,
the Navy captain refused even to speak to
him.
Nevertheless, we have discovered that
Elder justified the improper treatment of
high government figures by telling his
colleagues it would help the clinic at
budget time.
Footnote: Several of the patients said
they were unaware they were doing
anything wrong. Yet even some of the
“emergency” case is of dubious legality.
We asked Capt. Brenyo whether we, for
example could get a filling on an
emergency basis. “No way,” he sputtered.
SPY TRAP-—Despite warming relations
between Cuba and the U.Sthe relentless
espionage game goes on. One of Fidel
Castro’s intelligence agents sought to
enlist a Cuban residing in the U.S.
As it happened, the would be enlistee
was already a U.S.intelligence informant
and turned over his instructions to
American agents. We have obtained a copy
of this intriguing spy “primer”.
“The method (of communication) is to
write in an invisible form,” begins the
note. A simple mix of half fresh lemon
juice and half water is recommended.”
The spy is instructed to write a “cover
letter with a ball point pen (do not use
pencil or fountain pen”). The cover letter
should be dull enough to get by any
censors or counterspies, but logical
enough not to raise suspicions, the spy
mini-manual says. On the back of the
“cover” letter, the invisible ink is penned in
with “a small stick like the ones used for
throat examinations. Sharpen it (but) do
not wet the stick to much.”
To prevent a “fingerprint” from the heel
of the hand which one puts on a letter
when writing, “arrange on top of the
papera blank sheet.” The folded final
letter must be handled delicately or “you
will remove the invisible ink.” It was to be
sent to a room on 21st Street in Havana,
using a false return address.
Finally, when Havana sends the next
instructions, also in invisible ink, the spy
is “to pass a hot iron on the white part (of
the paper).” The Havana agent enclosed a
cash payment for his new “recruit”, with a
grim if subtle warning as a“P.S. forgot to
tell you,” it says, “I have been with your
family and all, including the old lady are
fine.”

Thought
for the day
By DANIEL PREVETTE
Phillippians 4:19 “And my God shall
supply all your needs according to His
riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
We are assured here that our Father will
supply our needs. Mark 11:24 tells us that
when we pray, we should pray believing,
and our prayers will be granted. There is
awesome power in prayer. Bob Mumford,
in his book The Purpose of Temptation ,
gives an illustration of this. While he was a
student, he and his wife, and his baby
daughter were all living in a tiny trailer.
Their only support was a monthly veteran’s
check of eighty dollars and occasional
gifts from concerned people. They had no
excess support; they had just what they
needed. One day his check didn’t arrive,
the gifts stopped, and in a few days they
were down to eating “cre m of wheat with
canned milk, without sugar.” Mumford
looked at his wife and said, “Judy, don’t
understand why the Lord seems to have
failed us.” His wife laughed, and said, “
understand perfectly well. Remember last
week when we discussed who was
providing for us. Well was never quite
sure it was the government, those nice
people, or the Lord. So asked the Lord if
it was Him providing, to please give me a
sign by cutting off our supply.”
That evening when they returned from a
meeting, they found a box of groceries and
an envelop with atwenty-dollar bill
insideexactly the amount needed to
restock their cupboard!

Reflections on sixty
years of dorm life
It might be hard to imagine being a
part of ECU for more than 30 years
housekeeping employees Hattie Bell and
Mary Wilkes can attest to the changes the
campus has undergone in the past three
decades.
Both women, now on the White Dorm
staff, started their dorm careers in Cotton
Hall. Mrs. Wilkes spent 28 years there
before going to White four years ago. Miss
Bell was in Cotton over 10 years, and in
Ragsdale for 18 years before being
transferred to White.
MISS HATTIE BELL
Mrs. Wilkes cited the abolishment of
many school rules as responsible for the
major changes she has noticed.
Miss Bell agrees, saying, “There never
used to be any smoking or drinking among
the girls, at least not so anybody would
know about it.”
Both women emphasize the gradual
reduction of dress codes as a major
transformation.
“When first came, the girls knew
they'd better have a robe if they went out
in the hallway,” says Mrs. Wilkes.
Miss Bell recalls a time when bare feet
were considered scandalous.
topic:
MRS. MARY WILKES
The social aspect of life in the women’s
dorms have undergone major innovations,
according to Mrs. Wilkes and Miss Bell.
“The girls always had to do their
courting in the lobby of Cotton in the old
days,” says Miss Bell. “If they were caught
kissing their boyfriends, they could count
on being sent home.”
“If the girls went out in public they had
to be with other girls. They never went to
town alone,” says Mrs. Wilkes.
“The students were more considerate
in these days,” according to Miss Bell.
“They cleaned up their mess, and emptied
their own trash.”
Both women cite relaxed rules on
cooking in the rooms as a problem.
“Between the smell of cigarette butts,
liquor, and rotton food, sometimes
emptying trash is just sickening,” says
Mrs. Wilkes.
Mrs. Wilkes remembers many times in
the near and distant past when dorm
residents have come to her with various
problems.
“ tell them to do what I’ve always
done; keep on trying, and depend on the
Lord for help, and always pray for them a
little bit myself.”

Pop ‘catch phrase’ snags
Communications key to better world
By JACKSON HARRILL
“Hey man, that chick was so wild, you
know, it was so real being with her.”
“What's happening?” “Is that guy for real?”
“No way!” If you are any kind of student,
you may recognize several of these
phrases as part of your - and others -
everyday speech. We are sometimes so
caught. up in a conversation that we
spend very little time formulating our
thoughts; the spoken message might very
well come out as a short, slang expression
intended solely for the interpretation of the
receiver. We pack a lot of meaning into so
few words, and often this results in the
breakdown of communications. It was said
several years ago that there was a
“communication gap” between young
people and their elders; maybe today there
might exist a “gap” between young people
and their peers.
In one day, we come in contact with
people, some of us more than others, and
with nearly everyone of them we engage in
some form of communication. It could
take place without your knowing or being
aware of it; watching out for it is
something most of us seldom do,
producing a breakdown in communi-
cations.
How do you get your message across?
Do you get your message across? Rapid
communications have become a large part
of our society. Pick up a phone, if you
doubt my word, and with the right amount
of money in your pocket you may speak to
anyone anywhere in the world. Blame it,
then, on the pace of our society. In his
book, Future Shock, Alvin Toffler
discusses change and how it is affecting
our world. People seem to want to get their
message across using the least amount of
time. Running words together, they seem
to make reality out of “Newspeak” in
George Orwell’s 1984.
Getting through to someone is difficult
for many people. Most speech courses
label the interference “noise”, that which
blocks the transmission of a message. It
can be either physical or mental; ther
persons communicating determine the
amount of “noise” in a conversation. Use
of words and tone of voice make up a large
part of the intended meaning. You have an
idea and you wish to present it. Are your
words going to express the total meaning
of what you have to say? Do you speak
with emphasis, or do you shrink into a
corner? Say what you mean and do not try
to cover it up with fancy phrases or words
which have simpler meanings. When
instructing their men in communications,
the Armed Forces have an expession they
use: KISS - “Keep’ It Simple, Stupid”.
Maybe that would be good advice to all of
us.
Ever get bogged down when trying to
decipher the words in a textbook, or did
that newspaper columnist seem to be
writing just above the heads of his
readers? Lost meanings are found
everywhere. People think that they are
doing you a favor by being “scholarly”
when actually they are making business
for the dictionary manufacturers.
As stated before, change is a big part
of the way we live now. Persons change
jobs, move from town to town, and in
keeping with “the times”, our language
has undergone a rapid change. Words have
speech of Americans and quoted many
sources. But even Time is not perfect, as
Edwin Newan pointed out to them several
weeks later in a letter to the publication.
Television and radio have a major
influence over our lives, and what we hear,
we uSuaily repeat. Here is something to
consider: do you have enough influence to

e-ns:
become flexible, taking on two or three
unintended meanings. A most recent
example would be the word “rebate”.
President Ford announced a tax rebate.
Then care dealers had rebates. heard the
other day of someone offering a rebate on
your time spent with them.
We are ail guilty of using the latest
terms and expressions; we simply pick
them up from our peers and those around
us. Parents continually complain that their
children cannot communicate with them
(the “communication gap” results in a
“generation gap”?). Colleges moan and
groan when their incoming students
cannot read and write properly. “Far-out”,
“funky”, and “heavy” are examples of
words only a select group of persons
use. Many expressions lead a “double-life”’,
working one way from one group and
another way for another group. Can you
dig it?
Then there is the ever-present demon in
our Current speech, ‘you know’ (or, as it is
sometimes heard, “ya know’). Edwin
Newman, in his book Strictly Spoaking ,
questions the use of this phrase by king
why, if he already knew, was the p. son
telling him? Listening to the radio one ay
heard an interview with a sports figure.
During the one minute talk the man used
“you know” seven times. Going for a new
world record, maybe?
It has appeared that everyone has
suddenly gained an interest in better
English. Colleges are going back to
teaching basic sentence structure to their
students who have missed it in high
school. One college dropped the
application requirement and, instead,
asked its applicants to write an essay on
what they had done with their life, and
what they looked forward to in college, and
what they had planned after graduation
from college. This college has restored
their application requirement after they
found that many of the essays were poorly
written! Most recently, Time magazine
has published a feature article entitled
“Can't Anyone Speak English Here?” They
pointed out many of the faults of the
CONMUN' KATIUN
affect our style of speech and grammar?
The group “War” in their song “Why
Can't We Be Friends?” has a section which
says, in effect, “If know what I’m saying
and the person I’m talking to understands
me, why should change?” The character
Henry Higgins, in the Broadway musical
“My Fair Lady’, comments on forms of
speech: “Use proper English and you're
regarded as freak!”
The dramatic change in language might
be well-expressed in the following lines
seen on a professor's door.
“To be, or not to be”
Shakespeare
“To be is to do”
Sartre
“Do-be, do-be, doo“
Sinatra
Although we cannot all be English
majors, we can try to improve the way we
communicate with others: our friends,
teachers, and parents. On a promotional
poster, the American Telegraph and
Telephone System has written these
words :
“To communicate is the beginning of
understanding.” Wise advice for all of us.
Catsup downpour

pollution, some Oakland, Ca. residents

Government air pollution experts have
found that it sometimes rains catsup near

Accreditation of a medical school is

Pot laws eased
By ALLAN RABINOWTIZ
CPS“I can think of no area of criminal
law where so-called crime and punishment
are in such imbalance.”
Sen. Alan Cranston D-CA
In most parts of the country, a person
caught with as little marijuana as one joint
is still officially a “criminal,” and will have
a life-long criminal record to prove it. But
efforts to decriminalize marijuana gained
momentum this past summer with five
states making major reforms in their
marijuana laws. Another state gave
constitutional protection to persons who
possess marijuana only in their homes and
two major federal marijuana reform bills
are awaiting action in Congress.
Five statesAlaska, California,
Colorado, Ohio and Maine-will not
consider possession of small amounts of
pot a civil offense, dropping criminal
records and jail sentences for possession.
Instead, a maximum fine of $100 (except in
Maine, where the fine for possession of
any amount of marijuana for personal use
is $200) will be imposed. The laws are
patterned after the legislation of Oregon,
which in 1973 became the first state to
decriminalize pot.
In Alaska, laws against pot were
weakened still further when the state
Supreme Court ruled that possession of
marijuana by adults in the home fell under

the constituionally protected right of

on the Alaska constitution and not the
Federal Constitution, cannot be appealed
to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, two measures dealing with
marijuana reform are awaiting action in the
U.S. Senate. One bill, sponsored by Jacob
Javits (R-N.Y.), Alan Cranston (D-CA.) and
others in a bi-partisan coalition, calls for
the reduction of marijuana penalties to a
civil offense punishable by a fine not to
exceed $100.
At the same time, an amendment
dealing with marijuana decriminalization is
being pushed alongside the massive new
Federal Criminal Code now under
consideration by the Senate. A product of
the Nixon and Ford administration, the
revised code, if enacted, would penalize
possessors of any amount of marijuana
with 30-day jail sentence andor a fine of
up to $10,000 unless the decriminalization
amendment is included.
Two similiar measures are currently
under review by sub-committees in the
House of Representataives.

Warren Beatty is great inShampoo role
SHAMPOO
By CHIP GWYNN
Staff Writer
In creating movie characters screen
writers seem to be attempting to explore
certain areas of human behavior and action
that are generally foreign to the average
person. This accounts largely for the
massive number of people who went to the
movies during Hollywood’s spectacular
days of the twenties and thirties. Those
audiences went to see actors and
actresses in movie roles that glorified
almost every human trait and action. The
popularity of these actors and actresses
(who were almost trapped inside
Hollywood's “star system’) was assured if
they made their own personal lives an
extension of their movie roles.
Today, partly because of the large
youth market, film characters are
assuming the role of the anti-hero, who's
actions on the screen illustrate a desperate
struggle for an identity of some kind. The
search for this identity manifests itself in
the characters action. The ultimate failure
of the anti-hero character to establish an
identity for himself becomes obvious as
his actions become more and more pitiful
and he keeps insisting on how great things
are going.
In Shampoo, Warren Beatty, along
with script writer Robert Towne, has
created a character that fits into the

Like the title of their new hit album,
The Pointer Sisters are Steppin’. Right
back into the limelight.
After a year of major setbacks,
including the illness of youngest sister
June and a lengthy law suit with their
former record company, the talented
quartet are once again drawing the kind of
public and critical adulation that earned
them gold albums and a Grammy award.
Like the high-heeled sneakers on their
album cover, their clothes are still campy
chic. But the songs show a broader range
of their imagination, spirit and skill.
“When you're first getting
business you're afraid to say too much
‘cause they tell you you don’t know
anything,” said Ruth Pointer, following an
SRO concert in New York which marked
the return of June Pointer to the sisters’
absence.
“But now we've reached the point
where we can pick our own material and do
the things we used to pay others to do for
us,” she continued. “Steppin’ is the
result. ‘Cause we are. We're movin’ and
we’re learnin’ and we're growing.”
“And we're writing more,” said Anita,
strolling into the New York hotel suite with
Bonnie. The only sister not present was

possible.

anti-hero mold. From watching Beatty in
Shampoo one can’t help but feel that his
role as George the character is not
completely divorced from Beatty the actor.
Beatty achieved this blend of character and
actor by creating a role for himself that fits
his own life style.
The film takes place on election eve in
1968 and pictures of Nixon and Agnew
keep reappearing throughout the film.
George (Warren Beatty) is a Beverly Hills
hair dresser, who caters to the women of
southern California in more ways than one.
George puts on a display of almost
superhuman virility as he manages to hop
in and out of bed with more girls than
would seem possible. George’s virility is
matched only by his ability to make up
feeble excuses and meager lies that keep
him out of hot water for a while.
The plot revolves around George
wanting to open up his own hair dressing
salon and his subsequent efforts to stay
on good terms with the people who can
make it possible. The only problem is that
George’s benefactor is having an affair
with Jackie (July Christie) one of George’s
old girlfriends. George, by the way, is
sleeping with his benefactors wife,
unknown to him of course and he has a
steady girlfriend Jill, (Goldie Hawn) on
the side. All of these people end up at the
same party with obviously disasterous
results.
If all of this lustful action sounds a
rasa
Overcoming obstacles is nothing new
for the Pointer Sisters. They've been
“steppin” since they were little girls born
in the slums of Oakland, Calif bone poor.
Like so many other black singers, the
girls first sang in church, in their father's
congregation. The Reverend Elton Pointer
and his wife, Sarah, were very strict
parents who only let their daughters sing
hymns and gospels.

you are right. Beatty (who also helped
produce the film) has structured the film
so that the rich society of which he is so
much a part is held up to ridicule. The
effect Beatty and director Hal Ashby have
achieved is excellent. Ashby has done a
good job putting into cinematic terms the
shallow views of the self centered people
who surround George as well as: the
political candidates.
It is probably no coincidence that the
movie takes place on election eve. If there
are any direct political statements in the
film however, they are too muddled to say
anything worthwhile. Except that the
people who surround even the president
himself are just as confused as George. As
the night wears on and George finds
himself deeper and deeper in trouble with
his lady friends so to it seems that the
country is falling deeper and deeper in
trouble as Nixon increases his lead in the
presidential race. Such statements of
political parallelism would not have been
possible without previous knowledge of
the Watergate affair. Using this type of
hindsight in a foresight situation, such as
the situation the movie is trying to project
is not good or valid satire. It works only as
a comic parallel and has no value as any
kind of satire.
It is almost ironic that the strong point
in Shampoo is also its weak point.
Perhaps the most disturbing thing about
“We were so poor we used to amuse
ourselves by playing ‘house’ and dressing
up in grandma's clothes. Then we'd put on
talent shows in the kitchen, pretending the
table was a piano,” Bonnie recalled.
When the girls entered high school
they still wore grandma’s clothes the
kind of outlandish 30’s outfits that have
since become their trademark.
Bonnie and June were the first to try
the film is the shallowness of not only
George but also all the characters around
him. The women George sleeps with all
seem a little insipid and they listen to his
lies because he appeals to their vanity. Jil!
is torn between taking a modeling
assignment in Egypt and staying with
George. She finally realizes George’s game
but only after she has been hit over the
head with the evidence. Jackie still feels
strongly about George but she also
realizes that her financial problems are
over if she stays with her current lover.
It is also this shallowness that adds to
the charm and easiness of George as well
as giving the film itself a light touch.
George’s shallow character and his
ultimate loss of all his girlfriends are what
make him an anti-hero. George builds a
myth around himself through his sexual
victories and not only is he caught up in
his own myth but everybody around him
feels the same. At one point Jackie says
that the reason she left him was because
he was always so happy. This is evidence
of the myth affecting other people.
George is eventually snapped out of his
believing in his own myth by the death of
one of his friend’s sons. At this point
George has a chance for salvation and he
tries to get Jackie to marry him but it is too
late. George wakes up too late to save
himself from the alienation he fears to
much.
Pointer Sisters :Steppin Right right back
singing professionally. As “The Pointer
Sisters, A Pair,” they got their first job
singing at Oakiand’s Leamington Hotel.
Eventually Anita and Ruth joined in and
the Pointers were singing together just as
they did when they were children in their
father’s church.
“The folks were really scared about our
intentions,” Ruth confided. “They thought
we wouldn't be accepted and they didn’t
want us to go through the hurts.”
They hurt plenty. At the urging of their
first “manager” the sisters gathered up all
their possessions and headed for Houston
to make their fortune. But promised gigs
never materialized, scheduled recording
sessions never happened ai finally,
without a dime to their name, they wired
back to San Francisco for money to get
home.
As Anita explained it, “We wired a guy
we were told to contact in case of
emergency. He turned out to . 2 David
Rubinson who's still producing our album
to this day.”
Rubinson came to the rescue and gave
the sisters their first session work as
backup singers with Cold Blood and the
tivin Bishop group. Next came national
appearances with Dave Mason, more
backup sessions with Grace Slick and Tai
Mahal, an finally their first solo
appeara ice at the Troubadour in Los

Grateful Dead return
BLUES FOR ALLAH GRATEFUL DEAD
By BOB KEPNER
In the latter portion of 1974, the
Grateful Dead quit touring and set about
the task of developing a form of music
uniquely their own. Blues for Allah is the
result of the Dead’s re-evaluation of their
musical direction and six months of
»atient work at Bob Weir's studio. The new
aibum represents as sharp a break from the
“ontemporary music scene as Anthem Of
The Sun did in 1968. Until 1974, however,
the Dead basically played established
musical forms (Jazz, Blues, Country, etc.)
and interpreted those styles in a unique
nanner. The problem which they
sonfronted was one of choice. They could
jo back to roots” and play established
yrms again, or they could break new
round. The Dead opted for the latter
urse. As Jerry Garcia has stated in
cent interviews, the band has sought to
2ak away from what he termed as
musical cliches.”
Blues for Allah is thus based upon new
tonal systems developed by the Grateful
Dead. The album also marks the return of
percussionist Mickey Hard to the band.
Evidence of the Dead’s new synthesis of
established forms and their tonal systems
is especially apparent in the first three
Ee ee eT oe a
selections. ‘Help On the Way”,
“Slipknot!”, and “Franklin's Tower’ are
fused together in the-vocal-instrumental-
vocal format employed in the Dead’s
concerts. “Help On the Way” is a jazzy
piece in which Jerry Garcia’s leads
intertwine nicely with Bob Weir's modified
chop style on rhythm guitar.
‘““Franklin’s Tower’ is a deceptively
simple tune set in an asymmetrical
structure. The light, bouncy, almost
reggae beat is attributal in large part to the
organ work of Keith Godchaux.
Further Latin influences are noticeable
in the rhythm section on the following
instrumentals, “King Solomon's Marbles”
and “Stronger Than Dirt of Milkin’ The
Turkey”. Mickey Hart's percussion is in no
small part responsible for this effect. The
overall impression created is quite novel
since Garcia, Weir, and Godchaux play
essentially in a “spacey” manner instantly
recognizable to those who have attended
Grateful Dead concerts. The first side ends
with a Weir-Barlow selection entitled “The
Music Never Stopped”. This is as close to
a Standard rock number as one will hear on
Blues for Allah. Bob Weir is featured on
lead vocal and Steven Schuster on
saxophone. The vocal harmonies,
especially those of Donna Godchaux, are
quite good.
The second side begins wit what is
EE EE 8
with Blues For Allah
undoubtedly the best piece contained in
the album. “Crazy Fingers” represents the
best recorded lyrics yet written by Robert
Hunter. “Help On The Way”, “Franklin's
Tower’ and “Blues for Allah” are also
Garcia-Hunter compositions and of
excellent quality. Yet “Crazy Fingers” is
clearly superior. Hunter's images
superlatively enhance the waltzy,
sentimental mood inherent in Garcia’s
music. Not enough can be said about the
incredible tightness of the band and the
gentle strength of the vocals. “Sage and
Spirit”, a Weir composition, forms a bridge
between the first and latter portion sof the
album. Steven Schuster’s reedwork
prepares the listener for the eastern flavor
of the music to follow. The title song,
“Blues for Allah”, begins with a typical
blues intro but quickly becomes much
more. The vocal portion is in an eastern
style but as Blues for Allah” runs smoothly
into “Sandcastles and Glass Camels”, the
instrumental jam becomes spacier than any
previous recordings or possibly anything
yet performed in concert. The jam
progresses into the final track, entitled
“Strange Occurences In the Desert”. This
number proceeds into a blues progression
in which a vocal chant provides a focal
point from which Donna Godchaux and
Jerry Garcia expand. The concert-like
format of the last three album tracks is
completed as the album ends with a few s

— CONCERTS At ECU
SINGLETREE & PEGASUS
By KENT JOHNSON
The concert at Wright Auditorium
Tuesday became a virtual tribute to WECU
AM 57. The producer, Ken Strayhorn, also
produced Strawberry Jam last spring.
Strayhorn explained, “We just wanted to
keep the idea (of Strawberry Jam) alive
through the summer and bring some of the
groups back this quarter.”

concert drew a large crowd
Singletree, a showy seven piece group,
sporting an electric violin, and an electric
banjo, were first to play. Lead vocal,
Woody Thurman demonstrated crowd
control in his monologues between
songs.
ocarcely comparable to Singletree was
four piece Pegasus, introduced as “The
finest rock and roll band in North
Carolina’. Their show began with the flash
and smoke from flash powder
Both groups were performing almost
exclusively original material. It was
refreshing to hear original work, rather
than recycled “Top 40” material that is too
often performed
Most amazing about the concert was
that the groups were persuaded to play
free of charge. Erik Sieurin, also with
WECU contacted Pegasus during the
summer and put them in touch with
Strayhorn to make arrangements for the
concert
Strayhorn explained how he persuaded
the groups to play, “! thought this concert
would be a good chance for the groups to
get their original shows together. When
those groups are playing at bars, people
Sisters, That’s a Plenty, and Live It the

first time this Season. Over though f

15,000 fans turned out for the first game in
Ficklen Stadium this fall. The stadium's

while ECU's Tom Daub averaged 44.0 for
six. Agee’s performance included a 60

Junior quarterback Pete Conaty flashed
a bit of poise and polish, throwing for 113
yards and two touchdowns. If there was
any question who would take the helm this
season, Dye cleared it up by saying,
“Conaty is considered the number one
quarterback.’
Terry Gallaher wound up as Conaty’s
favorite target catching three passes; two
for touchdowns. Halfback Willie Hawkins
caught two for a total of 51 yards. Vince
Kolanko nabbed two and Alexander French
grabbed one.
The Pirates rushed for 246 yards for the
night. Hawkins knocked out a whopping
122 yards rusning in 10 carries, including a
51 yard scamp on a draw play. Fullback
Tom Daub added 39 yards in 9 carries.
Kenny Strayhorn carried for 31 yards

yards each
Dye was not altogether pleased with
his offensive team’s performance. ‘We're
not moving the ball with consistency. If we
would pass like we're doing now and run
like we did last year we would have a fine

Although the Indians used their 5'6”,
170 pound freshman running back Lou
Biondi as the work horse, giving him 16

Les Strayhorn may sign with Atlanta
By ROBIN SMITHERS
Staff Writer
Former East Carolina University and
Dallas Cowboy running back Les
Strayhorn, now in the process of signing
up with the Atlanta Falcons, had some
problems at the beginning of this year’s
season.
Earlier this summer things looked very
bright for Strayhorn. Tom Landry, head
coach of the Dallas Cowboys, called
Strayhorn in late May, asking him to come
to Dallas and attend quarterback school.
Most believed this was an indication of a
more active season this year. Strayhorn
attended the school, and when training
camp opened in California, he had his foot
in the door for a starting position.
Suddenly, things started tumbling
down. Only two weeks into the
pre-season, Strayhorn was injured in a
game and sufferea separated rib cartilage,
as well as a broken rib.
During the first week of September,
Strayhorn started considering the
possibility of being traded, and possibly of
being cut
On September 9, Strayhorn was
released from the Cowboys. Now, he and
his agent would just have to wait for calls,
and start bargaining with the teams from
which they received calls.
On September 11, Strayhorn received a
call from the Atlanta Falcons. They offered
nothing worth looking into. Two days
later, they called back, a little more
interested this time, but still no bait.

first game, 4-1
East Carolina's soccer team dropped
its first match of the year Friday, losing 4-1
to UNC-Wilmington in Wilmington
The injury-riddied Pirate team, playing
without three injured starters, stayed close
to the Seahawks most of thegame. The
Seahawks led 1-0 at the half and
lengthened their lead to 2-0 with about five
minutes left in the game.
At this point, the ECU injuries seemed
to catch up with the team as the Seahawks
scored two goals in the next four minutes
to move to a 4-0 lead
ECU got some measure of recourse at
the very end when Pete Angus drove home
a goal from 40 yards out, past a surprised
UNC-W goalkeeper. It was the third
straight year that Angus, a junior, had
tallied the Pirates’ first regular season
goal.
The lack of offensive scoring punch
was due mainly to injuries to the Pirates’
offensive personnel. Bob Poser and Jeff
Karpovich were unable to play due to injury
and Tom Tozer was hobbied by a strained
calf muscle. The defense, too, was playing
without key players. Co-captain Lloyd
McClelland and Mike Fetchko, both
fullbacks, were sidelined with injuries
The Pirates will be hard-pressed to heal
their wounds before their next game. The
next game will be this afternoon at
Pembroke at 4 o'clock.

Intramurals
By LEONARD SMITH and DIANE KNOTT
The Intramural Sports Program at ECU has something for everyone.
Activities are organized into three areas - the Men’s Intramural Sports Program, the
Women’s Intramural Sports Program, and the Co-Recreational Intramural Sports Program
in which men and women compete together against other “mixed” teams.
Posters, Intramural Handbooks, and other informational aides have been placed all over
campus. However, there are still many students, particularly freshmen, that know very
little about the Intramural Sports Program here at ECU. All students and faculty members
are eligible to participate in intramurals. No entry fees are required. All you have to do in
order to participate in an activity is to come by the Intramural Office in Memorial Gym -
Room 204, pick up an entry form, fill it out completely, and retum it to the Intramural
Office by the due date. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feelfree to call or
come by the Intramural Office and talk with the staff about it.

sections of single elimination competition are used, one for players under 6-1 and
another section for players 6-1 or taller.
Sixteen (16) entries were turned in for 6-1 and over competition while thirty-one (31)
entries were trned in for the under 6-1 competition. One-On-One matches are scheduled

Racquetball Mixed Doubles.
Women's Intramural Volleyball rosters are due by 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday-October 7.

can't fine the necessary number of players, the Intramural Office will keep a list of
individual players and group this players together to form additional teams for
competition. There is no excuse for missing this fun-filled activity.

LEO’S LOSERS
Last week Leo didn’t come out too well. Leo picked correctly in only 4 of 7 games for a
dismal .57. Leo’s predictions concerning important games this week are as follows:
GRADUATEINDEPENDENT DIVISION
AmericanLeague - No. 2 Herbs Superbs-vs-No. 3 Lafayette Holiday (4:30, Monday,
field No. 2).Herbs had to struggle against a fine Don’t Know team last week while
Lafayette Holiday romped over the Grimmies. Leo’s prediction - a settled Herbs aie
over Lafayette Holiday, 22-18.
National League - Mock Jocks -vs- Hogs (4:30, Wednesday, field No. 4). Mock Jocks
proved that they are for real, downing Bitterweed Gang in their opening game while the
Hogs didn’t get a chance to play because their opponent the Quims, was to scared to
even show up and forfeited. Leo’s prediction - Mock Jocks 20 - Hogs 8.
CLUB DIVISION
No. 5 AFROTC’s Ron’s Raiders -vs- No. 6 The Majors (5:30, Monday, field No. 4).
This game could decide the Club Division championship early. Both teams romped and
neither was scored upon. Both have fast, experienced teams and are looking forward to
the game. Watch this one! Leo’s pick - AFROTC’s Ron’s Raiders 24 - The Majors 14.
FRATERNITY DIVISION
Gold League - No. 1 Pi Kappa Phi -vs- Tau Kappa Epsilon (5:30, Monday, field No. 5).
Neither team has beenscored on. That will change this week, especially for TKE. Leo’s
pick - Pi Kappa Phi - TKE 8.
Purple League-No. 4 Kappa Alpha -vs- Lambda Chi Alpha (5:30), Tuesday, field No.
2). Kappa Alpha crushed Phi Kappa Tau last week while Lambda Chi Alpha struggled past
— Sigma Nu team. Kappa Alpha will roll again. Leo’s pick - KA 30 - Lambda Chi
Ipha 14.
DORMITORY DIVISION
Pirate League - No. 10 Belk’s Knox -vs- No. 7 Scott’s Time Out (4:30, Tuesday, field
No. 6). Belk Knox is strong, butnot strong enough to bestScott’s Time Out. Leo’s pick -
Scott’s Time Out 22 - Belk’s Knox 8.
Pitt League - Aycock’s Schlitz Blitz -vs- Scott's Pinetop Pirates (5:30, Thursday, field
No. 4). Both teams pulled out very low scoring victories last week, but only one will win
pes game. Look for another low scorer. Leo’s pick - Scott’s Pinetop Pirates 8 - Aycock’s
hlitz Blitz €.

missed a field goal attempt to the right.
The rest of the quarter the two teams
traded punts and fumbles, making
more mistakes than headway.
The first score came in the second
quarter. A 30-yard pass from Conaty to
Hawkins brought the Pirates to the
Indian’s 30.
The next play Hawkins took it all the
way in on a pitchout to the left. Conaty
added the point. A little razzle-dazzie in the
form of an on-side kick gave the Pirates
the ball back and. they kept it until just
before the half, when Lou Case intercepted
a pass.
The Pirates received the second half
kick and began a 16-72 yard drive that
ended with seven points. From the nine,
Conaty hit Gallaher, who gracefully
danced into the endzone. Conaty’s kick
was good to put ECU ahead 14-0.
The final score came with just 56
Gallaher. Gallaher made a diving catch on
a pass from the three. Conaty missed t
point and the game ended shortly, ECU 20-
W&M 0. The score was set up by Emerson
Pickett’s interception at the 22, where
returned it to the three.
Both teams were plagued with
penalties and fumbles throughout the
game. ECU was charged with 10 penalties
costing 123 yards and W&M lost 82 yards
for eight violations. The Pirates fumbled
five times and the Indians three.
The Pirates long suit seemed to be first
downs. They chalked up a total of 18; 11
on the ground, six in the air, and one on a
penalty.
The team’s optimism was reflected by
coach Dye. “We're just scratching the
surface of what we could be.”
The Pirates have potential and the rest

Time-Out
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
After Saturday’s win over William and Mary there are probably more happy faces in
Scales Field House than this time last week. But, despite the 20-0 win, several factors
may result in the optimism still being supressed among the ECU coaching staff and
players. Both Jim Bolding and Kenny Strayhorn were injured against William and Mary.
The loss of these two would be enough to shake any coaches’ security.
At the present time, Strayhorn’s injury, diagnosed as a slight shoulder separation, is
not supposed to keep him out of Saturday’s game with Southern Illinois, but one has to
wonder just how effective Strayhorn can be if he is worrying about his shoulder.
Bolding, on the other hand, is out for 2-3 weeks. He reinjured an old high school
injury when he fractured his ankle. The Pirates have good reserves in Bobby Myrick and
Steve Hale, but anytime you lose an All-Conference player of Bolding’s caliber it hurts
In addition, coach Pat Dye said he wasn’t too pleased with the secondary’s play
against the Indians.
“Defensively, we were breaking down in the secondary and not coming up and
backing well on the runs. We are not playing the way we’re supposed to.”
But, despite the injuries, ECU’s offense finally seems to have come of age and some
example for future games has been established.
Pete Conaty performed admirably at quarterback, completing eight of 23 passes for
113 yards and two touchdowns, and leading ECU to each of its scores.
And after three weeks of hedging, it seems Dye has finally decided on a number one
signal-caller.
“ would say that Conaty is now our number one quarterback,” said Dye, following the
game.
With Conaty at the heim, it seems ECU may be going to the pass more often.
Although Conaty did not pass for a good percentage, his threat opened up the attack
against the Indians and made the running attack click better. With Terry Gallaher long
and halfbacks Hawkins and Strayhorn catching the ball short, the defenses can’t predict
what will happen all the time.
Gallaher is fast establishing himself as one of the most dangerous receivers in the
nation. In three games, Gallaher has caught only six passes, but they have resulted in
five scores and a total of 243 yards, almost half the Pirates’ passing output for the season
so far.
The Pirates defense, too, appears to have performed better against William and Mary.
Several young players are beginning to develop into front-line talent. The ones who stood
out Saturday were once again Harold Randolph and Emerson Pickett. New faces were
Wayne Poole, Oliver Felton, and Harold Fort. The defense as a whole, though, does not
quite satisfy Dye yet.
“Our defense is not yet executing the way they are supposed to. In the line, we have
too many players who aren’t doing the job. We've got talent there and that has been why
we've been getting away with not playing well, because people have been covering up for
each other.”
But t!e most encouraging aspect of the game was the punting. Tom Daub finally
showed people Saturday that he, too, can get the bounces normally reserved for a
Johnny Evans or Joe Parker. On two consecutive punts, Daubhad one roll dead at the one
and the other died at the two. His average of 44 yards a punt was outstanding, too.
ECU, too, turned in the best defensive performance since Dye arrived at the school,
allowing only 160 yards total offense and, except for their first drive of the game, not
allowing the Indians past the 48 yard line. ECU, too, practiced ball control offense in the
second half.
In the third quarter ECU ran off 32 plays to the Indians six on offense and held an
81-59 play advantage for the game. A team won't lose too many games that way.
It seems the Pirates performed closer to Dye’s desires on Saturday, and they seem on
the right track to a better season than most anticipated after the ASU game. At any rate,
Dye feels the win will boost the morale of the team.
“It (winning) will certainly help the kids’ morale and attitude, but we still need to
improve on basic fundamentals and execution.”
Strayhorn Continued from page 18.
Strayhorn left for Atlanta on Friday,
driving across country, and was due in
Atlanta to negotiate his contract
yesterday.
So it is no longer a waiting game for
Strayhorn. Now it is just a question of
getting the right offer.
“ hope that when get to Atlanta their
offer will meet all my expectations,” said
Strayhorn. “I just hope that they will give
me what they have promised.”
If things don’t work out with Atlanta,
then Les said he will more than likely
return to North Carolina, and possibly try
to sign with a team as a free agent for the
1976 season.
“If things don’t work out with Atlanta,
I'll either take the job in Dallas (non-related
to football) or return to North Carolina and
see what it has to offer.
“Then next year I'll try and sign with
some team as a free agent.”

Coastal Resource seminar begins at ECU
By STAN HOLLOWELL
Harold L. Goodwin, former deputy
director of the U.S. Sea Grant program,
lectured on “The Future of the World
Ocean,” last Thursday to begin a coastal
Resource Seminar at ECU.
“We must learn to live with the earth,
wt simply on it, or destroy it,” Goodwin
contended.
“The system is more delicate than one
might think.”

Goodwin, who now operates a Marine
Affairs Services firm, spoke of pollution
and the worldwide shortages of food and
energy.
“There are ample sources of alternate
energy. The U.S. jis far behind other
countries in developing them.”
Solar energy and geo-thermal energy,
both non-polluting, have much potential.
Development of nuclear energy is slowed by
fear of accident.

seven years. He was chief program planner
and manager for Sea Grand undersea
operations, marine education, aquacul-
ture, and national program development.
“It is necessary to change regulations
to get minerals we need from the ocean,”
Goodwin said. “For example, there are lots
of phosphates in the ocean,” Goodwin
said, “but there are so many constraints
that industry prefers to exploit the land.”
“The future of the wold ocean is
inseparable from the future of the planet
and the people in it,” Goodwin said.
We still face the basic problem of
overpopulation according to Goodwin.
Estimates of U.S. population in the year
200 exceed 250 million. World population
will have increased by 42 per cent, he
added.
“The U.S. technological base is a
petroleum base,” Goodwin said. We face
an acute shortage of petroleum worldwide
and must adapt and change.
“Maybe the best was to expand nuclear
energy is to put it offshore,” Goodwin
Education Appropriations
suggested. “We cannot “ave absolute
safety,” he said, “so we 1i.ust settle for
accetpable riskc.”
Goodwin was rector of Atomic Test
Operations for tiie rederal Civil Defense
Administration for six years. He directed
nuclear weapons research at Nevada and
Eniwetok.
In the future we may see “underwater
windmills” harvesting the power of ocean
currents. The oceans are also our greatest
source of wind power.
One of the greatest problems in the
petroleum shortage is the shortage of
petroleum based fertilizer.
“No one need die of starvation,”
Goodwin said. “However estimates show
12,000 people die daily due to starvation
and 100,000 more from diseases due to
malnutrition.”
The ocean has protein to feed the
people. But this resource must be properly
managed and it must be unilateral.
“I’m not terrible optimistic on the ability
of nations to get together on this,”
Goodwin said.
gets Congressional veto
By CURT KOEHLER
(CPS)Disregarding dire warnings of
increased inflation and mounting deficit
spending, Congress voted in mid-Septem-
ber to override President Ford’s veto of the
$7.9 billion education appropriations bill.
By lopsided margins of 88-12 in the
Senate and 379-41 in the House, Congress
enacted into law the measure which
included some $2.4 billion in higher
education funding. The bill covered money
for such programs as Basic Grants,
National Direct Loans, Guaranteed
Student Loans, College Work Study and
Supplemental Educational Opportunity
Grants.
The Senate tally was 21 votes more
than the two-thirds majority needed to
override the President’s veto. The House
vote exceeded the necessary majority by
99 votes.
It was a “vote for inflation,” said Office
of Management and Budget Director
James T. Lynn. In the battle against the
override, the President’s spokespersons
continually emphasized the fact that the
bill exceeded Ford’s budget by $1.5 billion
and consequently, they argued, dan-
gerously increased the federal deficit and
encouraged inflation.
“The real issue is whether we are going
to impose fiscal discipline on ourselves or
whether we are going to spend ourselves
into fiscal insolvency,” Ford said in his
veto message last July. The President
terms the appropriation “too much to ask
the American peopleand our economyto
bear.”
Yet supporters of the override move
noted that the money bill calied for
spending $400 million less than the
congressional target set last spring as part
of Congress’ attempt to reassert control
over the federal budget. “The administra-
tion’s requests were inadequate to begin
with,” argued Massachusetts Senator
Edward Brooke, senior Republican on the
Senate Appropriations Subcommittee that
handled the bill.
Other override supporters argued that
the appropriation was only 3.6 per cent
over the 1975 appropriation, some 5 per
cent less than the consumer price index
rise over the same time period. This
argument led some administration critics
to argue that the education appropriation
represented an actual net decrease in
federal spending for education, in view of
the effects of inflation.
Prior to the ov2rrride vote Sen. William
Hathaway (D-ME), a member of the Senate
Budget Committee that set the original
target appropriation, said Ford’s veto
“demonstrated a callous and unfortunate
disregard for our national priorities and a
perversion of otherwise valid concepts of
fiscal and budgetary restraint.”
Educational lobbyists in support of the
override move were credited by observers
with one of the best lobbying efforts in
recent legislative history.
The ad hoc Committee for Full Funding
of Higher Education, consisting of such
groups as the National Student
Association and the National Student
Lobby, worked to encourage students to
telegraph, call or visit Congresspersons in
support of the bill, particularly in some 50
Congressional “swing” districts.
“It worked beautifully,” said one NSA
Official of the lobbying effort, noting that
the override vote exceeded the original
vote on the bill last July.
One NSA lobbyist cited the example of
a student leader from the Unviersity of
'Northern. lowa who gathered 2300
signatures on a petition in support of the
override in only 24 hours.

would like to know what effect the
as on the body and what effect does
ll have on a baby bom to a woman
as used pills for many years?
)By the pill, ! can only assume you are
ring to birth control pills. Birth control
, of the types most commonly used,
ain two hormones -estrogen and
esterone. They affect the body
arily by, in essence, “fooling” the
one levels which normally fluctuate
ighout the monthly cycle so that
ovulation (i.e release of an egg from an
ovary) does not occur. This, of course, is
the basis for the use of the pill as a
contraceptive.
The effects of the pill may mimic early
pregnancy. That is because of the
similarity of hormones and hormone levels
in the pill with those in the body during
pregnancy. These symptoms may include
morning sickness, breast swelling and
tenderness, and weight gain. Ordinarily,
however, these symptoms will clear after
several cycles on the pill.
The pill does have several potentially
serious side effects on the body. The most
important one of these is thrombo-
phlebitis, which is the formulation of a
blood clot in the vein. This clot has the
potential of breaking loose from its
location in the vein, traveling to the lung
and thereimpeding the flow of blood. This
latter event is called pulmonary embolism
and is an extremely serious occurrence.
There is also good evidence that certain
other vascular problems may be
associated with the use of the pill. These
vascular problems probably are related to
the estrogen which the pill contains.
It should be pointed out that this
discussion is intended to be a brief
response and that if one went into extreme
detail on the effects of hormones
contained in birth control pills on the
body, it would require many, many pages
and would probably still be incomplete.
Regarding your question about effects on
the baby, to this point there are no known
adverse effects upon a baby born to a
mother who has previously taken oral
contraceptives.
Q What is the casue of a pulled
hamstring and how does one rid himself of
hamstring pull that keeps recurring? Are
there any special exercises one can do to
prevent getting a pulled hamstring?
A) The hamstring group of muscles
refers to the large mass of muscle on the.
back of the thigh and is made up of three
separate muscles - the Biceps fermoris,
the Semi-membranosus and Semitendi-
nosus. This group of muscles acts to bend
the knee and to extend the hip. Hamstring
pulls or strains are the most common of
injuries to thigh muscles. The injury can
occur as a result of participation in any
active sport, but particularly if it involves
running.
Strains actually refer to damage to the
muscle fibers and this may vary from a
mild strain in which a very few fibers might
be pulled apart to, in the extreme, a
complete tearing or rupture of the muscle
group. This produces pain, bleeding into
the muscle and loss of function, to some
degree. Hamstring strains tend to recur
since they heal by forming a riber-like scar
tissue which is not elastic.
Preventing recurrences require a proper
exercise program to build up both
hamstring groups, since there is some
evidence that if one hamstring group is
weaker than other, the weaker is likely to
be strained. Secondly, following an injury,
albeit minor, complete muscular function
must have returned before resumption of
exercise.
Proper taping of the hamstring, at
times, is helpful to prevent reinjury.
Finally, one should warm up carefully and,
particularly in the warm-up process, avoid
over-strain or explosives types of motion
until the muscles have been completely
“warmed up”.
