Competition exists among job hunting grads
By KENNETH CAMPBELL
Assistant News Editor
Editor's Note: This is the first in a series
of articles dealing with job opportunities
for ECU graduates.
Jobs related to industry, managerial
and supervisory, are currently the most
available jobs for college graduates,
according to the different department
chairmen at ECU.
However, contrary to what students
may be thinking, competition for these
positions not only exists among business
related majors, but also among liberal
arts, humanities, fine arts, social
science, and science majors as well.
In some fields, persons with a
bachelors degree are in a better job
market than the Ph. D. graduate in the
same field.
But doctorates are not useless.
Rather, they are invaluable. In the long
run, more education will pay off, most
ECU Department chairmen agree.
Some Ph. D's are having trouble
finding a job because the teaching
market in general is saturated. Again,
only in business related fields are
teachers in somewhat of a demand.
Nevertheless, jobs, industry and
otherwise, are out there somewhere.
Voting
change
requested
By JIM ELLIOT
News Editor
t
The N.C. Public Interest Research
Group (PIRG), a non-profit student
organization, has requested the N.C.
Board of Elections to revise its
guidelines to allow college students to
register and vote in the town in which
they attend school.
In a letter and an accompanying legal
brief dated to Hugh Wilson Feb. 6, 1976,
chairman of the State Board of Elections,
N.C. PIRG called the board's guidelines
"an unconstitutional and discriminatory
burden against students as a class
The board's guidelines include nine
rules which define residency for
registration and voting. Rule (3) states,
"A person shall not be considered to
have gained a residence in any county of
this State, into which he comes for
temporary purposes only, without the
intention of making such county his
permanent place of abode
PIRG's letter and brief cite state and
federal court decisions in which such a
rebuttable presumption of student
non-residency has been declared uncon-
stitutional.
David Deiss, Duke University student
and coordinator of PIRG's voter
registration project, said the organization
urged the Board of Elections to "remove
any special or particular criteria for proof
of domicile for students" and to allow
County Boards of Election to require of
student applicants only that information
which they require of all applicants for
registration
"What we seek for college students,
imply the right to equal opportunity
FOUNTAINHEAD has sought to find them.
GEOGRAPHY DEPARTMENT
In the field of Geography, many
graduates find jobs in government. Others
depend on teaching or private agencies.
"Many students with bachelor's
degrees go to work in governmental
agencies said Ennis Chestang. "The
range of jobs and salaries is enormous.
"Popular jobs in geography include
work in intelligence agencies, and jobs in
environmental studies agencies.
"Students in the (ECU) planning
program can get jobs with the city,
county and regional planning agencies.
The job market is quite good because
towns and counties are currently
redeveloping and reworking themselves
Still other students concentrate in
cartography and get jobs with local
governments in mapping work. And the
old alternative, teaching, is available to
others. However, teaching jobs are
limited, according to Chestang.
The ECU Geography department has
63 planning students, 83 geography
majors, and about 25 masters candi-
dates. The department offers two
undergraduate degrees, and the masters
degree on the graduate level.
"Students who will go anywhere in
the country will get the job they want
said Chestang. "The urban and regional
planning field in general is only crowded
to the extent that there is competition in
the field
"The economic situation has made
the job market for the geographer more
keen. Consequently, the more education
a student has in the field, the better he
will be able to compete for jobs
Difficulty in finding jobs in
geography, as in any field is relative to
requirements for that job.
David Rezeli, an ECU planning major
who graduates winter quarter, plans to
work in Colorado.
"B.S. gialuates are competing with
masters graduates said Rezeli. "The job
market seems to be picking up for B.S.
grads
Rezeli plans to job hunt at a job
planning conference in Washington, DC.
in the spring. The best time for a
planning student to graduate is July,
according to Rezeli.
"July is the start of a fiscal year and
localities have money at that time he
said.
Another geography student with an
optimistic outlook on the job market is

to register to vote said Deiss.
"It is clear that the Guidelines issued
by the Board unconstitutionally prevent
this equal opportunity, and we urgently
request that they be revised.
"Discrimination against students with
regard to residency cannot be justified.
In today's mobile society, students are
no more transient than many other
groups. The U.S. Census Bureau has
reported that one out of every five people
in the U.S. changes residency every year
Additionally, the average length of time
American citizens remain in one location
(63 months) is quite short.
Wib Gulley, director of N.C. PIRG,
said that as of today there have been no
cases before the N.C. State Supreme
Court dealing with this facet of student
residency
i� i un ���! ������ i mm hi
There was, however, a 1972 case
which came before a lower court dealing
with a Meredith College coed's right to
register and vote in Wake County.
"In this case, the court ruled that
there could be no such presumption of
students said Gulley.
"In the most recent action, the
Federal 5th Circuit Court of Appeals
struck down a Texas law which presumed
student non-residency "
If the Board ofElections does not act
to end its illegal discrimination against
students, we'll pursue other legal
remedies, said Gulley.
Margaret M. Register, executive
secretary of the Pitt County Board of
Elections, said that Board has turned

ENNIS CHESTANG
-Geography Chairman
"There are jobs, but most require a
Ph.D said Austin, who is a grad
student. "The government, the CIA. and
the Pentagon want people.
"In federal government jobs, a
geographer would investigate the climate,
topography, and people of a place where
the United States is going to send war
troops, for example said Austin
describing one of the governmental jobs
available to geography graduates.

Pamlico
research
completed
By STEVEN MESSICK
Staff Writer
Three ECU professors have authored a
research publication of shore-line erosion
in the Pamlico and Albemarle estuarine
region.
The report offers guidelines to
property owners along sounds and
estuaries on how to cope with snore-line
erosion.
The publication will be available free
to the public in early February.
Dr. Michael P. O'Connor and Dr. Stan
Riggs, both of the geology department,
along with Dr. Vincent Beilis, of the
biology department, condensed data
obtained from a two-year study of
shoreline erosion The research was
funded by a $60,621 grant from the
University of North Carolina Sea Grant
Association.
The publication gives guidelines to
aid land owners and developers in coping
with erosion along the estuaries.
"People who live on the estuaries
know their property is eroding but the
government was slow in accepting it
said Dr. Riggs.
"Everyone realizes the coast is
eroding due to its high energy system
with large waves, but the possibility of
erosion in the lower energy estuaries is
often overlooked
The N.C. Legislature passes the
Coastal Zone Management Act which
allows each county to draw its own
erosion plan. The research data will aid
the counties in establishing erosion
regulations Riggs said.

Administration should pay for Wright
It should be of interest to students that part of their student
fee money, which they have to fork over each quarter, is going
to pay off the bond on a building that does not house student
organizations.
The case in point is Wright Annex. Wright Annex was used
as part of the old Student Union and also housed Student
Government Association offices after it was first constructed,
with bond money that student fees are paying off.
But, then the new Union was built, and SGA offices moved
into the new facility leaving Wright Annex vacant, at least from
student organizations.
The building did not stay vacant long as the campus attorney
moved in, along with the counseling service and the AFROTC
office. That is great if the university wants to house some
administrative offices in the building. But, then the
administration should start picking up the tab for the bond, not
the student.
Students currently pay fees to help pay off bonds for
Mendenhall, which they should do since that is the Student
Union. They also pay fees for Minges, which is the students'
coliseum. And, fees go to pay for the bleachers on the student
side of Ficklen, also a legitimate expense. Then there are those
expensive lights and we still question whether students should
be paying for them.
But, while we can swallow the lights, we find it hard to
accept the fact students are paying their fees for a building that
is clearly being used for administrative purposes.
If the SGA had remained in Wright Annex, or if some Union
activity had stayed there, fine. But, all those people packed up
and left and with them went the reasoning for the students to
continue to pay for the building.
There are several student organizations on campus which are
currently housed in "university buildings The Publications
Center sits on top of the old South Cafeteria in an
administration building. Then there is WECU in the old library
complex.
A reasonable question can be asked as to why these student
organizations can't be moved into Wright and the administrative
offices there be moved into the old publications center.
ECU Chancellor for Business Affairs Cliff Moore explained
that he "would rather see a member of the university family
housed in an existing facility, instead of seeing the building
deteriorating
We could understand paying fees on Wright Annex if the
publications or WECU were using it. But, to pay fees so the
campus attorney can have an office is not what we think
student fees were designed to do.
The whole issue really revolved around student fees and
state taxes. We see a big difference in the two - apparently the
people in administration don't see any difference.
Student fees are paid by students along with tuition at the
start of each quarter. Tuition, as we understand it, covers part
of the actual academic cost or "education . ot course tne
major part of the education cost is picked up by the taxpayers
of North Carolina.
Student fees then, are fees that should go to cover direct

newspapers, or newspapers without government, I should not hesitate a moment o
prefer the latter

Fountainhead is the student newspaper of East Carolina University sponsored by
the Student Government Association of ECU and appears each Tuesday and Thursday
during the school year.

student services, things like medical costs at the infirmary,
activity fees to the Union, fees to the student government to
help print papers, run buses and to help the athletic program.
And, student fees are also used tc pay for the facilities on
campus that are strictly student facilities - buildings that are
not the necessary part of education that the classroom
buildings are.
Mendenhall is a student building. Minges and even the
football field falls into this category- But, having the students to
pay for a building that houses the campus attorney and the
counseling center, which would appear to us to be part of the
"educational" end of this whole process, is stretching the
meaning of student fees a bit far.
Next, someone from administration will have the students
paying student fees to pay off "D" wing of Brewster. The same
logic that uses student fees to pay for Wright Annex could
easily reason a way for students to have to pay off classroom
bonds through the use of student fees.
We see a big difference in state taxes, tuition and student
fees, just like we see a big difference in student facilities and
administration facilities.
Fountainhead is currently lodged in an administration
building. The campus attorney is currently housed in a student
building.
We will be glad to change offices with the attorney, the
counseling center, or the AFROTC office.
And, if the administration does not want to move, maybe
they would like to buy the building from the SGA, or either rent
it.
At the present time they are getting it at a pretty cheap rate -
free.
Now you know how ECU gets such a high space utilization
rate each year. They use student buildings for non-student
services.

X-rated movie issue
Screening would amount to censorship
To Fountainhead:
I found the letter o the Fountainhead
(Feb. 10) concerning Kan Russell's "The
Devils" disturbing in several aspects.
The authors begin by praising less
censorship on college campuses but then
simultaneously pass judgement on what
is "appropriate and in good taste These
two concepts are very difficult to define
as well as to combine. The screening cf
these supposedly "high caliber films"
would be nothing less than to open the
door to more censorship. Can a handful
of people designate what is in "good
taste" for a university of ten thousand
individuals? I personally don't think so.
Students should have a decision in
choosing campus films. But if one is not
a member of the Films Committee, it is
rather difficult to express one's
preferences. Maybe this situation can be
corrected in the future.
As to the film in particular, some
points should be made. The Fountain-
head's synopsis of the film clearly stated
that to some "The Devils" would be
"visually shocking and deeply disturb-
ing It also pointed out that the film was
"explicit and highly graphic Furthermore,
the article was not a 'review" but a
promotional ad lifted from the Warner
Brothers Film catalogue.
Russell approached the source
material both realistically and surrealist-
ically. It is highly unlikely if Louis XIII
performed the Birth of Venus for his
court, but court masques were a very
important part of royal entertainment
during this period of history. It is just
one of several jokes that occur
throughout the film (i.e. Louis XIII
shooting Protestants dressed as black-
birds or the two "quack" surgeons
facetiously talking of hanky-panky after
the gruesome medical examination of
Sister Jeanne). The magnificent as well
as futuristic sets which were built to
represent Loudum and Richelieu's library
were clearly no literal re-creations and
weren't meant to be so. They were both
symbolic as were many other aspects of
the film. But Russell was true to the
basic story which is based on an actual
occurrence and Aldous Huxley's novel,
"The Devils of Loudun that being the
destruction of a man by the combined
forces of the Church and State.
For Lyone who may have been
offended or outraged by the film, you
should read Huxley's novel. The horrors
shown in the film are lifted straight from
the book. In fact, Russell underplayed
such areas as the exorcism of Sister
Chairperson explains bookings
To Fountainhead:
I appreciate the time taken to write
the comments appearing in the February
10 issue of the Fountainhead concerning
this past Friday night's free flick, "The
DevilsI believe the writers did not have a
clear view of what goes on behind the
scenes, and hope that this letter will
clarify the issue.
The Films Committee of East Carolina
University Union has the responsibility
for selecting popular films for Friday
nights, Internationals and Classics for
Wednesday nights, and occasional Film
Festivals as interest and money permit.
The six voting members and one
non-voting chairperson meet and pick
movies they believe will be of wide
appeal to the university.
The Films Committee selects these
movies in various ways. Mainly we
peruse catalogs for features we believe
will be of interest to the university body.
However, at times certain members of
the university family will bring films to
our attention. In the case of the "Devils
a student approached the committee
claiming this would be a good feature for
the campus. He didn't contend that it
be without controversy, but that it was
similar to the grossness found in "Jaws"
and "The Exorcist" which were popular at
that time.
I am very sorry that you were
disappointed at our choice, but I am
likewise disappointed with your as-
sertions. You insinuate that the films
have not been as "artistically beautiful as
they should be when the films, in fact,
have been the best that the films
committee has been able to get in a long
time and as evidence of this is the fact
that we have had to turn many people
away from the last few showings because
of a packed house.
You contend that Fountainhead
reviews should be accurate and detailed
enough to provide movie goers with a
good idea of what they are in for. I invite,
rather, urge you to take this up with the
Fountainhead ErJ attainment Editor. My
frustrated Publicity Coordinator has put
in several original reviews only to
find that the Fountainhead had
substituted its usual one-sentence
synopsis of a movie for his well-thought
out articles. Why, I do not know.
You claim that an accurate poll of
movie interest should be taken. With
three quarters of full programming to do,
we have neither time nor money for such
a venture, but the members of the
committee are very active in assessing
student opinion on their own. They are
concerned with what the students at the
university want, and this is something
that I am very proud of.
As far as your assertion that
entertaining classics and relevant
contemporary pictures should be chosen,
I refer you to our past record as I said
before. We have already scheduled some
fantastic films for next quarter. Included
on the agenda are such things as
"American Grafitti "Butch Cassidy
"Touch of Class "Waldo Pepper
"Odessa File "Diary of a Mad
Screening
proposal
draws fire
To Fountainhead:
In regard to Kurle and Marshall's
article entitled "Student Questions
Content of Free Flick I feel these
students do have a right to express their
personal dislike for the movie, "The
Devils but their proposal for the
screening of all possibly controversial
films for university showing is
outrageous, ridiculous and upsetting.
How can this institution hope to be
dedicated to intellectual and artistic
pursuits if all material is screened from
the students unless "tasteful "appropri-
ate "inoffensive "decent "docu-
mented "historically accurate "un-
controversiaJ "appropriately censored
and in "good taste Come on Kurle and
Marshall, get off your pulpit and give up
your gavel. I hope that your proposals
don't get any further than your senseless
article.
Mark Howard
Housewife and "Summer of '42
among others. We are also reinstituting
cartoons, and may even nave three
showings on Fridays instead of two.
In invite you and anyone else to come
up to my office in Room 233, Mendenhall
any day and peruse through my catalogs,
talk about movies you would like, or even
apply for the committee. This is the best
course for action.
I personally did not enjoy the movie
as yourselves, but the guy sitting in front
of me and his six friends laughed
hysterically throughout the entire feature.
They pay activity fees too. This is only to
say that people have different views. This
movie did please some people, however,
I do not believe it did please the
majority. If you can please some of the
people some of the time, you do o.k. If
you can please the majority of the people
most of the time, you are doing good,
and if you can please the majority of the
people all of the time, you must be some
kind of miracle worker.

Jeanne and the tortures endured by
Father Grandier. If he had shown all,
everone would have fled the theater. The
atrocities depicted in the film were not
visualized for sensationalistic purposes,
but to underline the outrage and
brutality of the entire fiasco.
As for the critical appraisal of the
film, there were many level-headed
reviewers who understood Russell's
motives. Stephen Farber, a noted film
critic in the New York Times reported
that:
it (The Devils) is filled with
passion, energy, and imagination that
make Ken Russell one of the most
exciting and important filmmakers
working today (N.Y. Times, August 15,
1971).
The Los Angeles Free Press called
ita masterpiece as consumingly rich
and as arrogantly original as the greatest
works of art
William Wolf, for Cue Magazine,
accurately summarized the film's explicit-
ness by saying that,
Russell's attack is impressionistic
conveying the horror of the reality
rather than merely depicting the reality
itselfbrilliance is there with harrowing
effect (Cue Magazine, July 17, 1971).
Even a professional psychiatrist,
Lawrence Hatterer, M.D a professor of
Psychology at Cornell University Medical
School, said that he was impressed with
the extraordinary accuracy of Rus-
sell's representation of every form of
human aberration. What is more,
Vanessa Redgrave's performance might
well be used as a textbook classic in its
brilliantly authentic representation of a
17th Century religious hystericRussell's
film will survive as a classic because it
must make anyone who sees it feel
(N.Y. Times, August 15, 1971).
I will be the first to admit that "The
Devils" is a harsh film; but the film
depicts an even harsher reality, it is to
the viewer's disadvantage if he cannot or
will net see beyond the so-called "gory"
or "gruesome" episodes, to the film's
immediate theme.
The most disturbing point in the letter
from Ms. Kurle and Mr. Marshall was
labeling "The Devils" as hardcore and
insinuating that anyone willing to seek
out such entertainment would gladly go
to "the other side of the tracks" to find
it.
I don't know if the other
approximately twelve to fourteen hundred
people who watched the film took this
personally or not. But to dismiss a film
as emotionally powerful and as
technically well made as "The Devils is
nothing but ludicrous. Because the film
was certified an X rating does not
automatically make it an exploitation
film. There are a handful of quality X
rated films which include among others,
"A Clockwork Orange "Midnight
Cowboy "Last Tango in Paris and yes,
"The Devils
Speaking for myself, "The Devils" was
an overwhelming emotional experience
and at the same time one of the most
innovative and interesting films that I
have seen in some time.

Student enjoyed
x-rated free flick
FRANKLY SPEAKING by phil frank
To Fountainhead:
Someone should be congratulated for
the choice of such a great free flick as
Ken Russell's "The Devils Rarely have
such fine films been screened in this part
of the country. I saw this movie three
years ago, and I thought I would never
have the opportunity to see it again!
Writer dislikes
x-rated
movies
To Fountainhead:
Shocked, shocked and disgusted is
how I felt when I learned about the
X-rated movie that was shown on Friday,
February the sixth. It seems that some
people just have to see how much they
can get away with. There have been more
than enough R-rated movies shown this
year at ECU. Now, bored with just
R-rated sex your thrills are X-rated
porno-flicks. Well enough is enough! I
demand equal time for movies with
degrees of educational and dramatic
value as well as some light comedies.
What kind of people think that the
only movie worth seeing has to deal
with their sexual fantasies and
perversions? What is it? Is the mentality
of this type person so low that they can't
understand anything that doesn't deal
with their sexual desires?
Quit discriminating against people
who prefer to see something other than
sex on the screen, people that would like
to see something with a little, you'll
probably cringe when you hear this,
cultural value.
The proliferation of R-rated movies
and the X-rated hog-wallow that was
shown on the sixth make me ashamed to
admit that I am a student at this "party
school

Student backs
Amanon wreck
To Fountainhead:
I would like to add my letter support
to those already printed in the
Fountainhead regarding the SGA bus
accident. In my opinion, Greg Davis'
statement that David Aman is trying to
take advantage of the SGA is a
completely unfounded, self-defensive
remark that no sensible ECU student
would buy.
Is not student money used to support
the SGA transportation system and the
insurance that goes with it? Then if
accidents are not referred to the
insurance company for full restitution to
parties suffering damage, for what
purpose is our student money being used
in maintaining insurance coverage for the
SGA buses?
If Mr. Davis' and Mr Honeycutt's
treatment of David Aman is representa-
tive of the way things are handled by the
SGA, then I wonder if we students (and
our money) are not being taken
advantage of by incompetent leaders.
Sincerely,
Dale Holmes
It is certainly surprising to read a
letter from Sheila and Bob condemning
"this type of film to the hard-core kit
kat theaters (Fountainhead, Feb. 10).
"The Devils" (in spite of its title) is hardly
a movie of the "kit kat" variety. You will
be very lucky to see it at any such place,
or, to see it at all, for that matter! I think
Sheila should have stayed home and
darned some more of Bobby's socks.
Most great artists are provocative and
Ken Russell is a genius of the theater.
This movie is a masterpiece of
psychological realism. "The Devils' "
historical documentation is just an added
extra, since the actual personnages and
events are taken merely as starting points
for an intensely dramatic exploration of
human emotions and a power play within
a particular set of social conditions.
Ken Russell's critics have posed this
question: "Can we really justify showing
any film, regardless of Its content,
simply by calling it art?"
Is ART really so tmowout? Wi
don't you look closely at the society
which surrounds you? Can you safely
ignore Life? Is it not there that the true
perfidy rides?
ART involves the faithful portrayal of
life. It can never be effective as a pole
idealization of the truth. I recommend
"The Devils" to its critics, but next time
please don't walk out on it!
Kudos, kudos to the committee
whose discerning taste and intelligence
brought to our adult public a profound
cinematic experience - a rare treat
indeed. I doubt that Sheila or Bob would
appreciate the terrific comedy in "The
Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoise

accident
To Fountainhead:
This letter concerns the controversy
over the accider volving the SGA bus
and car.
Two friends cnd myself saw the
accident. The note left on the car was
not left by the bus driver, but by one of
the people I was with.
The bus did hit the car, but I don't
think the driver realized he hit the car. If
he did, he made no attempt to stop.
One thing for certain, the car was in
a legal parking space.
It doesn't matter if the car was made
in 1975 or 1905, damage was done to the
car. It will still take an amount of money
to fix the car whic me SGA's insurance
should be obligate to cover.
The SGA will be 100 percent in the
wrong if they try to rip off the owner of
the car.

Student takes issue with
apathy editorial
m
To Fountainhead:
In response to your editorial
condemning student apathy towards
publications, I say "phooey More than
anything, I'd say students stay away from
those jobs because they feel they are not
qualified. I worked on the BUCCANEER 2
years, and the reason I applied was that
my English teacher (Mrs. Sorenson, the
BUC's advisor) encouraged me to do so.
Even though I had had yearbook
experience in high school, I felt I was not
qualified to work on a college book. Most
students who would ordinarily be
interested have this attitude. It's a matter
of respect for the job. But the truth is,
with a little training and a lot of interest
and enthusiasm, anyone can do it.
As for the editorship, don't act like
everyone interested ought to run over to
South Cafeteria and throw themselves at
your doors.The BUCCANEER'seditor ship's
a year full of headaches, disappoint-
ments and tension. School work is
placed second. The decision to even
apply for the position is a grave one to
make and I don't blame anyone for
refusing to take the step. I admire those
who can.
Writer liked
soap opera
To Fountainhead:
What am I going to do? The good
people of Greenville decided the
Norman Lear soap opera "Mary Hartman
Mary Hartman" was too bitter for their
conservative taste. Living up to its usual
high standards WNCT-TV cancelled the
show after only seven episodes. How can
I find out who killed the five people, two
goats and eight chickens? Is Mary going
to have an affair with the police officer?
Will Grandpa Larkin the "Femwood
Flasher" do it again? Are you still
reading this letter? WNCT says they have
received many letters opposed to the
show and not "a single one in favor of
it If you are ready for something a little
different and a lot crazy, send a letter to
WNCT-TV, it only costs 13 cents so hurry
before the rates go up again. If you don't
have a spare 13 cents, write your letter,
fold it into a starship and throw it in the
general direction of the station. You
never can tell can you?

Rather than putting down the entire
student population, why not reevaluate
yourselves? If the BUCCANEERoff ice were
in a more "public" place where the
students came into contact with the
staff, then the students would see how
the BUC operates. The whole business of
putting together a yearbook would be
less of a mystery. How about offering a
publications meeting for interested
freshman at summer orientations? Or
using the Fountainhead for articles about
the progress of the other 2 publications?
I think your whole problem is to inform
the students as to what you do and how
you go about it. The entire publications
block needs to open up and show its
heart for what it really is: a lot of hard
work with its own rewards.
Sincerely,
Nancy Leggett
Alumnus
supports
ECU cagers
To Fountainhead:
How about some support for the
basketball teams at East Carolina, your
school? The attendance of students at
the basketball game, men's and
women's, is pitiful. Sure, the men's team
is playing terrible basketball, but why
quit on them? The men's team may be
playing to the best of its ability and this
year is just an off year. The students
supported the good team of last year and
that support probably helped the team
have a good year. But why be a "fair
weather friend"? If the student body
would enthusiastically support the men's
team, I believe the guys would improve
their performance. Poor attendance and
lack of enthusiasm not only hurts this
year's team, but it hurts recruiting.
Besides, you students have already paid
for your tickets, so why not attend?
There are four more home games for
the men and one more for the women.
Large student crowds will certainly be
impressive to the players and coaches.
Please give this matter your time and
consideration.
Thank you.

Women voters sponsor political session
A Crash Course in Politics sponsored
by the Greenville-Pitt County League of
Women Voters (LWV) will be held on
February 24 at 8 p.m. at St. Paul's
Episcopal Church Fellowship Hall in
Greenville. The five persons who will
speak are all involved in some aspect of
politics in North Carolina.
Phil Kirk, the Administrative Assistant
to Governor Holshouser and former state
senator, will discuss statewide cam-
paigning: the support a campaigner
receives from hisher party; where
financial support comes from and how to
get it; the effects or campaigning on
family and business life; and campaign
promises as related to one's party and
constituents.
Mrs. Kathy Crockett, Chairman of the
North Carolina Federation of Young
Republicans, will speak on the structure
of the Republican party - from the
precinct level through the national
convention - and how interested citizens
can become involved in the party.
Mrs. Janice Hardison Faulkner, who
directed the Pitt County campaigns of
McGovern for president and Henry Hall
Wilson for senator, will talk about
campaigning in general, local and
statewide elections. She will discuss the
various ways of campaigning - from
door-knocking to media coverage - and
which ways she believes are most
effective. She will point out what
individuals can do separately and what a
party can do through the people in it.
Greenville attorney Tom Taft, formerly
an assistant to Lieutenant Governor
Hunt, will speak on the structure and
platform of the Democratic party from the
precinct to the national level, the
Affirmative Action Plan, and the Plan of
Organization.

erosion said Dr. Bellis. "Bulkheads or
groins can be built to block waves and
trap sand, and set-back lines should be
enforced to regulate how close structures
can be constructed to the water.
"There has to be uniformity in
choosing the means with which erosion
is to be slowed Bellis said. "If only one
property owner builds a bulkhead, his
neighbor's land will wash away, leaving
him stranded on a peninsula
The publication will name erosion
sites, categorize types of shore-line, and

Register said the responsibility for
proof of residency lies with the voter.
The validity of a voters residency may
be challenged by any other registered

Register, the Pitt County Board of

A college I.D. will suffice for proof of
dentification for registering, she added.

Mayor Pro Tern, will discuss her personal
experiences in running for office: what
motivated her; whether being a woman
helped or hindered her; and personal
insights into the process.
According to Margaret Wirth, Voters
Service Chairperson of the LWV, the
moderator for the Crash Course in

15-20 minute presentations by each of
the speakers, the audience will be invited

Would you believe.
Air travel gains popularity
A Valentine fairy tale
By PAT COYLE
Features Editor
Once upon a time in the far away land of Wilson there lived a very handsome
young man. This fellow had been endowed with personality and wit to match his
attractive face.
One would think this young man would be very happy. Alas, twas not the case.
You see, when he was a mere babe, a wicked witch named him Dorothy, declaring
that he would never be loved until he met a princess named Harry.
It so happened that about a year later, in the land of Pinetops, a beautiful baby
girl was cursed by another witch (who obviously hadn't heard about inter-witch
cooperation). This other witch named the girl (you guessed it), Harry.
Harry grew up in a castle surrounded by verdant meadows of tobacco. Dorothy
spent his youth in a little paJace on U.S. 301.
Time passed, trucks passed, and both Harry and Dorothy passed (in school, that
is).
One bright September morning Dorothys father, King Jethro, came to his son's
chambers and exclaimed, "Dotty, today you are a man. I am transporting you to the
place where a man proves himself, East Zambizi University (EZU)
Dorothy was excited, but very, very scared. It was bad enough that all of the
princes of Wilson scorned him, but what would the men at EZU think of his name?
Worse yet, Dorothy lived in fear of being rejected by the fair maidens, none of whom
would be named Harry.
That very morning, in Pinetops, King Cotton loaded Harry, in all her glory, into the
cab of the royal pickup truck, and took her to a castle called Jarvis Hall.
Both Harry and Dorothy were entranced by this magic new kingdom called EZU.
Dorothy's roommate, whose name was Georgie, suggested they venture into the
nearby village one night to engage in some sporting activity.
At Georgie's urging, Dorothy ventured over to a fair maiden, suggesting they share
the next dance. She said, "Are you a Greek, Dorothy?" When he said no, she walked
away
Dorothy wandered dejectedly back to the hill upon which he lived. Walking down
the grand hallways of Aycock Palace, Dorothy contemplated turning to good King Leo
for help. Just at that moment he spotted a proclamation that states: "Greek Rush,
Sept. 12-19
The fair maiden's words came back to him, and he wondered if this mysterious
Greek business might help him overcome his name problem.
September 12th, Dorothy stood among numerous other princes, goblet of ale in
hand. At first he felt lost, uncomfortable. But then one of the Greeks put a quarter in
a magic music machine, and soon many of the Greeks and young princes were doing
strange gyrations
It so happened that the Greeks had invited some lady Greeks, of the order of Chi
Omega, to share in the festivities.
Among the Chi Omegas was the beautiful princess, Harry, (who had chosen to
belong to the order because the young Greek princesses wore Papagallo shoes.)
Dorothy spotted her across the room, and suddenly knew that, somehow, she
could solve his problems.
They danced and made merry, then wandered to the railroad tracks where Harry
broke Dorothy's evil spell.
Did they live happily ever after? Not exactly. Shortly after the magical night with
Harry, Dorothy made the acquaintance of a princess named Dick, and another called
Tom. He found these maulins to be just as attractive as Harry, which goes to show
that some people will go out with any Tom, Dick, or Harry.

The number of young persons using
air travel is increasing year by year,
according to Wade Allen, Piedmont
Airlines station manager at Kinston.
East Carolina University (ECU)
students are in a very advantageous
location in this respect, now that Kinston
has a regional airport.
"The services are here, but the
problem now is acquainting the students
with the available flights said Allen.
"Raleigh-Durham Airport has been used
by people for so long that it remains
foremost in their minds
According to Allen, ticket prices are
virtually the same from Kinston as from
Raleigh. This is accomplished by
reductions in rates by the airline and any
other airline the passenger will use as a
flight connection.
"A student thinks he will save money
by driving to Raleigh, but in most
instances that just isn't the casp added
Kinston Airport Manger "Smokey"
Higdon. "Driving time is cut by over an
hour by using our facilities
Higdon also discussed the possibility
of recognizing students' economic
restrictions in relation to parking
privileges, but no decision has been
made.
Of prime importance to students are
ticket prices. The airlines offer a wide
variety of "Freedom" and "Bicentennial"
fares, excursion fares, and group rates.
"Each type of fare has certain
stipulations that must be met said
Allen. "For example, some must have
reservations 14 days in advance and
others must be purchased by a number
of people
"The best thing a student can do is
call the toll-free number in the phone book
and ask for the cheapest price to his or
her destination
An affordable, efficient limousine
service between Kinston and Greenville is
being sought, according to Higdon. The
completion of a new 30,000 square feet
terminal next year may attract some of
the established limousine services.
"A limousine service would greatly
benefit those students who are without
cars said Higdon.
According to Allen, many students
are now traveling during quarter and
semester breaks and during the holidays,
rather than stay at home.
"We have a very popular flight from
Kinston to Myrtle Beach added Allen.
"The fare is reasonable and the student
doesn't spend the better part of a day
driving
It takes approximately one hour to fly
from Kinston to Myrtle Beach, including
a stop in Wilmington.
The Kinston airport strives to alleviate
passenger worry and inconvenience.
Personal checks and all major credit
cards are accepted, with proper
identification, as payment for tickets,
said Higdon.
If a passenger misses his baggage on
connecting flights, the bags will be
delivered free of charge. Damaged
baggage will be repaired or replaced
without "red tape said Higdon.
Those who are uneasy when a
member of the opposite sex inspects his
or her luggage will be happy to find both
male and female baggage inspectors at
the boarding gates.
"We announce all flights and
recommend that a passenger check-in at
least 15 minutes before boarding time
said Allen.
According to Higdon, there will be
more emphasis on trees and grass, and
less on fences as the airport begins its
metamorphosis into a modern, up-to-date
facility.
"With connections at other airports, a
passenger can go almost anywhere from
Kinston said Allen.
"A mile of highway only takes you a
mile commented Higdon. "But a mile of
runway will take you anywhere in the
world
ECU grad Guy ette likes freedom of ceramics
By STEVE MESS1CK
Thwapp A shapeless fistful of clay
is slapped onto the spinning wheel.
The talented hands of artist John
Guyette begin to carefully knead and
shape the grey, lifeless mass. With
seemingly little effort, the bearded
Guyette transforms the clay into a
beautiful piece of pottery.
Guyette is a Greenville potter who
enthusiastically shares his craft and
appreciation of art with the surrounding
community. He teaches art education at
John Taylor and John Small elementary
schools in Washington, N.C. He enters
his work in craft fairs and sells his
ceramic creations to local stores.
"I really enjoy teaching at the
elementary level because the kids are so
interested in all forms of art said
Guyette.
"The people in the Washington and
Greenville area are very receptive to and
conscious of the fine arts. Bringing
something extra into their lives gives me
a great deal of satisfaction
The amiable Guyette readily admits,
however, that he is happiest when
working in his home studio which is
furnished with a kiln and potter's wheel.
His farm-style house is full of original art
works, handcrafted furniture, and plants.
It is an obvious extension of the creative
personality of this self-styled artist.
"I'm attracted to the freedom of
ceramics and the endless possibilities it
offers to the artist explained Guyette.
Most of his pottery is functional in
design, like wine decanter sets, place
settings, planters, and jewelry.
"I get my ideas for design while
working with clay on the potter's wheel
as opposed to working the details out on
paper beforehand
Guyette's interest in art developed
surprisingly slow.
After graduating from high school in
Philadelphia, he played football his
freshman year at ECU. He became
dismayed with the college scene and
joined for a hitch in the Navy.
"After my discharge, I returned to
ECU, took a ceramics course, and liked it
so much I decided to major in art
education and chose ceramics as my
major studio Guyette said.
The burly Pennsylvanian graduated
from ECU two years ago and has been
m
wm
very busy since. Many local stores sell
his creations.
"During college, I worked part-time at
the Sunshine Garden Center doing
landscape work explained Guyette.
"After graduation I started supplying the
center with planting pots and, then, other
local businesses started carrying some of
my work.
"I really enjoy teaching and wouldn't
want to rely totally on ceramics for a
living. If I had to mass produce pottery
as a career, it might take some of the fun
out of it
As for the future, Guyette would
eventually like to get his masters degree
in art education. But for the present he is
content in doing what he enjoys,
teaching art and making pottery.

Dr. A Mason Smith
Environment studied as cancer cause
By BARBARA MATHEWS
Staff Writer
Progress has brought us many
things: easier jobs, shorter work days,
increased comfort, faster transportation.
It has changed our lifestyle from one of
relaxed rural quietude to that of urban
bustle and noise.
Progress has also brought pollution
to our air and water supply.
And from that pollution is arising the
health hazard of enviornmentally-caused
cancer.
Dr. A. Mason Smith, an East
Carolina University (ECU) immunologist
and a member of the International Union
Against Cancer, is concerned
"Man is a product of his
environment said Dr. Smith. "A large
part of our physiological well-being
depends on the environment we are
exposed to
Dr. Smith became interested in the
problem of environmental cancer while
studying fish tumors. "We can find
cancers in fish which closely resemble
human cancer he said.
"What are the factors causing cancer?
No one can really say. We know that
there are certain viruses that will cause
it
"There are also certain compounds,
for example nitrates, which undergo
various changes when they enter the
human body.
"The product of those changes can be
a carcinogen, a cancer-causing sub-
stance
According to Dr. Smith, some people
may be genetically predisposed, or
susceptible, to cancer.
These people are more likely to have
some types of cancer than are other
people and are more easily affected by
environmental carcinogens.
But very little research on genetic
predisposition has been done, according
to Smith.
"Everybody gets upset when you talk
about genetic research regarding human
lives said Dr. Smith.
Dr. Smith said, "Agricultural, rather
than industrial, pollution is the problem
in eastern North Carolina
"Insecticides and pesticides in a
tobacco region could be bad he said.
"They are checked out to be 'safe'
because they will not kill you
immediately
"But after working with them for
several years, who knows what effect
they could have on the body?"
And the food we eat can be just as
dangerous, according to Smith.
"Seafood especially can contain high
concentrations of pollutants said Dr.
Smith.
"These are the type of animals that
get the benefit of concentrated pollution,
because everything they eat has eaten
something else
"Then we come along and consume
the seafood, and really pick up a dose of
pollutants
Dr. Smith is now researching several
types of tumors in mice.
He said he hopes to gain insight into
the basic genetics of the cell by studying
the antibodies produced by the mice in
response to cancerous cells.
He is also studying the effect of
treatment with heavy metal compounds
on the tumors.
"Hopefully, such research will
culminate in a better understanding of
what those substances are that cause
cancer
As for cigarette smoking, Dr. Smith,
and ex-smoker, disapproves.

To prevent cancer, Dr. Smith

Early detection procedures are one

Producer Finnanshines in'Rimers'
By SUE ELLEN McLEOO
Staff Writer
"There is an evil in this town warns
old Mary, as she slowly turns and
shuffles away. As the play progresses,
one begins to wonder whether the evil in
Eldritch is roaming the streets or hidden
beneath a town full of people. 'The
Rimers of Eldritch" opened Morday night
to a full house, and when the show
ended the house was not only full, but
pleased as well. The cast and crew of
"Rimers under the direction of Stephen
B. Finnan, presented a very effective
performance of Lanlurd Wilson's play.
There has been a murder in Eldritch,
and the entire play is a combined series
of flashbacks. These flashbacks reveal
the circumstances of the murder as well
as the attitudes of the townspeople
concerning it. Each scene has its
separate setting and circumstances.
However the dialogue flows from one
scene to the next maintaining its original
idea as well as its coherence. The
direction of these exchanges by Stephen
Finnan is excellent. The coherence of the
lines remains intact while moving from
one scene to another and then to still
another
Wilson's script uses several repeti-
tions to emphasize important scenes.
These repetitions worked very well,
helping the audience to focus on the
precise time a specific scene occurred as
well as note the importance of the scene.
Before the show begins, the set is
overcast in pale greys. It seems open and
bare, unlike the stage filled with scenery
�ne expects to see. When the play
u. ins, however, the set lends itself
easily from one scene to another, coming
alive under the influence of the lighting
and characterizations.
As a whole, the character work is
extensive and believable with only a few
weaknesses present. One of the most
outstanding performances is given by
Barbara Richardson in the role of Cora.
The undercurrent of motion and
understanding which emanates from this
woman is remarkable. Her facial
expressions and entire manner are those
of a woman who understands the
weaknesses within herself and those
around her and accepts these weak-
nesses. Old Mary, played by Hazel
Stapelton, also delivered an impressive
performance. Her ramblings of the evil
in Eldritch, are delivered with sincerity
and just a touch of humor, which
endears her to the audience. Skelly,
portrayed by Kurt C. Fortmeyer, is the
hardest character to establish, and this
difficulty is apparent in the first act. In
the second act, however, he delivers a
monologue which not only establishes
his character and position,but also his
skill as an actor. Charlotte Cheatham's
characterization of Eva, a cripple, is also
very effective. Her gangling, awkward
movements work well, yet even more
notable are the quick emotional changes
which accompany them. These emotions
change quickly and in extremes,
reflecting the inconsistency of her being.
Jenny Miller, as Patsy, gives a delightful
performance of a school girl bored with
the "old ghost town" of Eldritch, and her
"family" delivers a late night discussion
scene that is so real it is beautiful. There
are many notable performances by other
characters too numerous to mention, and
I can only suggest that you see them for
yourself.
While the play works well as a whole,
there are some definite weaknesses. For
instance, the voice of Walter, played by
Bill Vann, was often barely audible, and
Nelly, Sara-Jo Berman, at times became
too harsh in her characterization. Robert,
portrayed by Steve Geiger, also had some
difficulty maintaining his characterization
as the younger brother of the town hero.
Several scenes also seemed out of place
or unrelated. Their only purpose seemed
to be in orienting the audience to the
town of Eldritch, and, if so, they should
have occurred earlier in the play.
Discounting these few weaknesses, the
play is solid and flows smoothly as it
progresses.
An effective piece of artistry. "The
Rimers of Eldritch is Stephen Finnan's
first production for the East Carolina
Playhouse. If this play is any indication
of his work, then he will certainly prove
to be an asset to the Playhouse.

Robert Brouwer's unique presenta-
tions are a marriage of technology
and artistry. His electrical training and
experience have proved valuable in
planning and designing much of his
special equipment, and he is gifted with
a remarkable perception of beauty.
Three scenes, four projectors, quality
stereo music and sounds, controlled
lighting and blending, contribute to the
drama and artistry of Brouwer's

the American way of life. The
slide presentation will take the audience
on visits to such places as Niagara Falls,
Washington, D.C Colonial Williams-
burg, and Jamestown, Disneyland, and
the Acadia National Park.
Thousands have been thrilled by this
presentation. "America on Parade" has

ECU Symphony Feb.22
The ECU Symphony Orchestra will
present its winter concert on Sunday,
February 22 at 3:15 p.m. in Wright

The program will feature works by
American composers Leonard Bernstein,
George Gershwin and Darius Milhaud, a
naturalized American citizen born in

ECU Department chairmen speak 0 Ut on job market
Continued from page 1.
Kim Kuzmuk, a senior in geography,
is not having much success in her quest
for a job. She has applied for a position
with the Federal Defense mapping
agency, and state planning agencies, but
she hasn't received any replies as yet.
GEOLOGY DEPARTMENT
"There are more jobs in Geology now
than there have been in the field during
the last 15 years said Michael P.
O'Connor, chairman of the Geology
department. "This is true in all areas of
Geology because of the recent energy
crisis, and recent success of ecological
groups in getting legislation passed to
protect the environment
The ECU Geology department offers
three undergraduate degrees including
teaching degrees, and a masters degree.
"The demand for geologists is
reflected in the magnitude of environ-
mental probelms according to O'Con-
nor. "Since the population is expected to
increase, continuous prospects for jobs
will remain very good
"Exploration for minerals, natural gas,
petroleum, and other sources of energy
involves jobs at all levels. This includes
field work that the undergraduate degree
holder might do, to research and
laboratory work that the Master or Ph. D.
graduate might do.
"There are many new teaching jobs
being developed because of land use
programs, and environmental legislation.
State and federal governments are
offering geologists jobs which range
from mapping and collection of sample
(of minerals) to trying to develop certain
mineral deposits in certain areas
Of the geology students that have kept
in contact with O'Connor since
graduation, all of them are omployed,
said O'Connor.
"Any student who is seriously
interested in getting a job will be able to
find one said O'Connor.
"We are having a problem on the
graduate level because students are
being offered excellent jobs before they
finish their degrees. They have a
tendency to want the money.
"Although industries are hiring
students who have a bachelor's degree,
students who want to further their
education should remain in school
regardless of the temptation.
"Later when the job market slacks off,
employees with the lower degrees will be
the first to go
Another advantage of the higher
degree is that persons with the higher
degree have a better chance for
advancement, according to O'Connor.
The role of the geologist in society is
changing considerably, he stated.
"Once people had a stereotype picture
of a geologist with a magnifying glass
looking at a rock said O'Connor. "Now,
however, since his role in society comes
head on with the country's economic
situation, pictures depict the geologist in
his right role - serving man
Right now, the geologist can pick his
job, according to O'Connor. If a geologist
likes the outdoors, he can do field work.
Or as another option, he can travel, or
work in foreign countries. Opportunities
are almost unlimited, according to
O'Connor.
PHYSICS DEPARTMENT
"Jobs in the sciences are not as
numerous now as they were in the early
sixties said James W. Byrd, chairman
of the Physics department. "However,
this doesn't mean there has been
widespread unemployment in the science
field since then.
"The years 1961 through 1965 are
sometimes called the 'Golden Age of
Science But as the demand for
physicists and scientists in general level
off, the number of students going into
these fields leveled off also. So, although
the number of physicists has decreased,
there is no widespread unemployment in
this field.
"Demand is on the upswing. There is
a good market, but not a bull market. In
other words, there is not a loud outcry
for physicists
Unlike most teachers, the physics
teachers are in a better position today
than they were in the early seventies.
"A few years ago, there was a dearth
of qualified physics teachers said Byrd.
"Today all of them are finding jobs.
"Environmental problems is the big
'bag' for physics students now, and they
are getting jobs working on those
problems
Jobs popular among physicists
include teaching, engineering, industrial
positions, and academic and research
jobs.
The Physics department offers four
undergraduate degrees.
CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT
"There is a really good job market for
chemistry majors said D. F. Clemens,
chairman of the Chemistry department.
"Of course a poor student will have
trouble finding a job in any field.
"We have had a number of requests
that we were unable to fill because not
enough chemistry students were graduat-
ing. Although the student does not
always get a job immediately upon
graduation, we have not had any trouble
placing a student who maintained a good
record while at ECU
The Ph.D. graduate has more trouble
finding a job today than does the
bachelor's graduate, according to
Clemens.
"Chemistry leacnes people how to
solve problems, and that is what an
employer wants of his employee said
Clemens.
"Most chemistry majors would
like to go into research, but currently
that is the area with the least
opportunity

Tankers whip Duke, 70-43
Cagers face crucial test
The East Carolina University basket-
ball team faces a crucial situation in a
period of three days. In order to finish as
one of the top four teams in regular
season Southern Conference play, the
Pirates must win at least one game,
either Saturday or Monday night, and
maybe both
Appalachian State, the surprise team
in the Southern Conference, will visit
Greenville on Saturday night, while
Furman University plays at ECU on
Monday night.
The importance of finishing in the top
four is due to the conference tournament
design. The top four teams host the
bottom four teams in the first round
games.
"We're down to a situation where
we've dug ourselves a hole explained
coach Dave Patton. "We've got to get
ourselves out. Nobody can help us out
but ourselves.
"We have to win over Appalachian,
and by more than two points, in case we
end up in a tie for fourth place said
Patton. "The conference rule is that if
you tie a team, and each defeated the
other, then the team with the widest
Sixth straight win
margin or victory gets the home berth
Appalachian captured a 54-52 win over
the Pirates earlier this year in Boone, one
of six conference games the Mountain-
eers have won.
"So it's simple said Patton. "We
have to beat Appalachian. And if
Appalachian beats VMI, we must beat
Furman on Monday night in order to get
fourth place
Should the Pirates win the two big
games it would mark a turnabout in their
play. Over the last nine games the
Pirates have won only two. One of the
losses was Saturday night against
Athletes in Action.
"I was terribly disappointed in our
performance against the AIA related
Patton. "We had no enthusiasm, no
hustle, no desire, no smarts. I had told
our team before the game that it was one
you played for personal pride and
because you were a basketball player.
And that's the way they responded.
"So I just don't know what to expect.
But if we don't win on Saturday night
against Appalachian, then we may as
well plan on packing the bags for the
first-round tournament game
East Carolina's swim team closed out
its regular season with a convincing
70-43 win over Duke Monday night in
Durham.
This season, while finishing 9-2, was
the best season for coach Ray Scharf, as
his best previous finish was 10-3. The 4-0
conference mark was also the best ever.
The Pirates swam surprisingly well
considering everyone is not back at full
strength following the recent flu
epidemic that went around. Coach Scharf
was proud of his troops for their efforts.
"I was real pleased at the way we
swam tonight stated the veteran
mentor. "The whole team swam well and
few came off the sick list to do a fine
job. We are really looking good going
into the conference meet
The Bucs took nine of the 13 events
in winning their second meet of the year
against Atlantic Coast Conference
competition, the best in East Carolina
history. Stewart Mann and John
McCauley registered double victories for
the Pirates while Ross Bohlken, Doug
Brindley, Larry Green and David Kirkman
all picked up wins in one event each.
Mann took the 200 individual medley
in 2:03.2 while Keith Wade finished
second in 2:05.9. In the 200 backstroke,
Mann won with a time of 2:04.6 with
David Moodie placing second with a
clocking of 2:07.4.
McCauley took the spring double as
he has done several times this season. In
the 50 freestyle, McCauley had his
second best time of the year with a 21.6.
Billy Thorne was second in 22.1.
McCauley clocked 47.9 in the 100
freestyle while Bohlken was second with
a time of 48.4.
Bohlken won the 200 freestyle with a
fine time of 1:45.1 while John Tudor
placed second in 1:45.5, his career high
in the event. Brindley took his specialty,
the 1000 freestyle, with another fine time
of 10:02.4 while the Bucs' Barry
McCarthy placed third in 10:23.4.
Larry Green had his best time of the
year in the 500 freestyle when he won in
5:01.6 while Steve Mendel placed third in
5:10.3, also his best of the year. David
Kirkman continued his fine showings in
the 200 breaststroke with a time of
2:15.3 for the victory. His last five meets
have been faster than last year's varsity
record in the event.
The 400 medley relay team of Mann,
Kirkman, Steve Ruedlinger, and Billy
Thome ti ned in a fine time of 3:39.3 to
win over the Blue Devils.
Ruedlinger also turned in a fine
performance in the 200 butterfly as he
was going up against a strong opponent.
His time of 2:00.6 was one of his bests
of the year.
The ECU junior varsity team will swim
Calvert Hall College of Maryland and
Walt Whitman High School Friday
afternoon at 3:30 at Minges Natatorium.
This will be their last meet of the season
before the conference meet.
Lady Pirates come back to take win over Elon, 91-86
ELON COLLEGE-The ECU Lady
Pirate basketball team came out with a
record setting 57 points in the second
half to overcome a blistering first half
shooting spree by Elon College,
leistering a 91-86 win here Tuesday
night.
With the victory, the Pirates extended
their winning streak to six games and
their season record to 6-3.
Behind a balanced offense, in which
four players combined for 70 points, Elon
rushed to big leads in the first half of
play. Leading at times by as many as 24
points, the Fighting Christians hit from
ili over the court, both inside and
ouside, to hold the Pirates down.
ECU fought back, cutting the deficit
by ten points by the time the clock ran
down at the end of the half. Elon led the
Pirates by 14 points at the half, with a
48-34.
But, as has been the case several
times during the year, the second half
was a different story as far as the ECU
team play was concerned.
When the Pirates' powerful offensive
running game began to roll there was no
tomorrow for the Christians. When the
shots started to fall for the Pirates in this
final half of action, an overpowering
defense came along with it.
Although Elon was just as accurate
from the floor in the second half as they
had been in the opening half, strong
rebounding by ECU on both ends of the
court negated any offensive scoring by
the Christians.
ECU'S second half scoring binge and
defensive excellence eventually wore
down the fight in the Christians. With the
final score, 91-86, the Pirates broke a
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
previous team scoring record - one they
had set in their last game.

2. TOTALS 36 14-31 86.
Behind their own balanced team
attack, especially Rosie Thompson's
career high 32 points, the Pirates
outscored the Elon team by 19 points
during the second half.
All in all, the comeback was a
tremendous team effort. Four Pirates
finished the game scoring in double
figures. Thompson led all scorers with 32
points followed by Debbie Freeman's 19.
April Ross and Gale Kerbaugh were the
other Pirates in double figures with 18
and ten points, respectfully.
The Pirates shot 47 percent, which
was their best field percentage of the
season.
Coach Bolton said of the victory:
"The game showed they had a lot of
courage and determination to come back
the way they did

Time-Out
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
OLYMPIC SURPRISES
Prior to this year's Winter Olympic Games, the United States was not expected
to make much of a showing in the games. In fact, the U.S. team was supposed to be
so poor this year that one sports periodical claimed it would be lucky to win any more
than three bronze medals.
So far this time around though, the Americans have done extremely well,
especially when considering what they were supposed to do at the outset. Although
the American medal total is by no means setting the pace - it at the same time is a
good one, considering the performance expected of them.
The eight medals which the U.S. has won up to now has already surpassed the
total they won last year. And as of yesterday, the Americans were in good shape to
win a possible gold medal in the figure skating and a possible bronze medal in Ice
Hockey, an event which although dominated by the Russians and Czechs, has been a
surprisingly strong one for the U.S. team.
The U.S. Ice Hockey team pulled off an upset over the Finnish team on Tuesday
by a 5-4 score. In pre-Olympic games, the Finns had controlled the United States
team, but when it really counted the Americans came through.
So the underdog Americans are fast becoming the "Cinderella team or xrie
Thirteenth Olympiad.
Sheila Young has already come away with three medals in the Women's speed
skating events and Dorothy Hamill was favored to win the figure skating after placing
second in the compulsory competition. If Miss Hamill wins the figure skating, and
she is reputed to be the best free skater in the world, it will bring the title back to the
U.S. Peggy Fleming won the 1968 Olympic crown in figure skating but Beatrix Schuba
of Austria took the title in 1972.
It is good for a change to see the American athletes outdoing themselves in the
eyes of their opposition. Hopefully, this feeling of Olympic success will carry over
into the Summer Games in Montreal. That is, if Montreal can ever get the Olympic
sites built and squared away.
POSSIBLE ECU OLYMPIANS
When speaking about the Olympics, East Carolina does have some interests in
i regards to its athletes.
One, Tomas Palmgren is practically assured of participating in the Olympics, since
he is National Champion for his native Finland. Palmgren won't be swimming for the
United States, but nonetheless, it would be nice to have an ECU Olympian.
Others, most notably Carter Suggs, could make it through the track and field
ranks if they have a good spring. It could be extremely difficult for Suggs to make the
team, but with a tryout, training and a good day, it is a possibility.
Nevertheless, there are things to look forward to in the Olympics as far as the
United States is concerned. The Summer Games should prove much more successful
than the Winter Games have and with several ECU athletes having an outside shot
some East Carolina coaches may be wetting their chops at Olympic trials later this
year.

Walk-on makes it big swimming
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
It is not often when a walk-on can
come in and help a college program in
any way. But Doug Brindley has
proved to be the exception to the rule.
The steady swimmer has come in to add
some much needed depth at the distance
events and has distinguished himself as
the team leader in these events.
Brindley has really caught the eye of
head caoch Ray Scharf since his move to
the winner's circle that started earlier this
year against N.C. State, the meet in
which he had his best times.
"Doug came up to me before the
season started said the veteran mentor,
"ana told me he wanted to try out for my
swim team. I welcomed him, but in the
back of my mind, I didn't think he would
be good enough to make the team. He
turned out to be the best walk-on I've
ever had
Brindley made the team, but his times
at first were not what he wanted. He
seriously contemplated quitting the team.
Scharf persuaded him differently.
"Doug came up to me after a meet in
which he had not done well. He really
wanted to quit. I talked to him and told
him how good he was doing and I believe
this gave him the confidence to
continue
The meet with N.C. State seemed to
be the turning point of the season for the
freshman tanker. It was in this meet that
he registered his top times of the
season.
In the 1000 freestyle, Brindley
clocked out in 9:59.08, while he times a
4:51.77 in the 500 freestyle. His time in
the 100 la second only to varsity record
holder Stewart Mann, while his time at
the shorter distance is fourth best on the
all-time list. Brindley believes he will
own all the distance records before this
season is over.
"I'm going to own those varsity marks
in the 500 and 1000 before this season is
over. I'd like to go 4:45 in the 500 and
9:50 in the 1000. I hope to get the 1650
(freestyle) record in the conference
meet
Brindley, who attended New Provi-
dence High School in New Providence,
N.J moved to Kill Devil Hills a couple
of years ago. In high school, Brindley did
not have a competitive swim team, so his
being overlooked by Scharf in recruiting
can be understood. He swam on the 'V
team in his hometown, but got no
exposure as far as college coaches
seeing him. Brindley credits his coaching
staff at ECU for turning him into a top
notch swimmer.
"I have never had coaching like this
said the freshman Accounting major.
"We have a great program here at ECU. I
get some kind of yardage in practice.
And the stroke work, Dr. Martinez is a
master at that kind of thing
Brindley has interests in things other
than swimming also. "I really enjoy
surfing and snow skiing. That is one
reason I picked East Carolina, because it
is near the coast. The other reason I
came here is the School of Business
Administration. I could have come here
or Carolina, and there was no real choice
there
For a walk-on to do what Brindley has
done would probably be truly remarkable.
But someone who does as well as that
probably does not remain a walk-on for
long. Many times a scholarship is in
order. This could be one of those times.

ECU playmaker
�IM
Garrison's 'best year ever' reaping dividends
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
Ellen Garrison is by heart a mountain
girl. When she came to East Carolina
University from Weaverville, N.C. four
years ago it was to pursue an education
In Physical Therapy
Although in a similar field now, Miss
Garrison has broadened her scope at
East Carolina to include playing
basketball, a sport she starred in for
North Buncombe High School. Included
in her high school career was a trip to
the State playoffs her senior year.
� came here to major in Physical
Therapy because I could get in here
easier than at Carolina or Duke
confessed the 5-3 ECU playmaker, "But I
knew when I came to college that I
wanted to play basketball wherever it was
I went
It was a beneficial move that Miss
Garrison decided to play basketball at
ECU, one which not only proved good for
ner. but also the East Carolina
Women's basketball program.
According to her coach, Catherine
Bolton, Garrison is playing her best
basketball since coming to East Carolina.
"Ellen is playing her best basketball
ever said Bolton. "She's playing with
more quickness and aggressiveness than
ever before and her play has been
providing us with the stability we needed
at the guard position
Despite the plaudits of her coach,
Garrison said her lack of aggressiveness is
what has hindered her play in the four
years she has been at East Carolina.
But if one has watched the ECU
Women's team in action this year, one of
the positive factors which has probably
been noticed is the play of Miss Garrison
and how she seems to run the show by
setting up the offenses and defenses.
"Defensively, Ellen is really better at
calling the changes than anyone else
said Bolton. "We change defenses so
much that we really need someone who
knows what they are doing out there.
Ellen has good instincts at calling the
changes
Ellen is the leader on defense for the
Pirates when it comes to switching
defenses and knowing when to do so.
She does get some help from her
teammates, though.
"I just try and change the defense
enough so that we don't stay in it long
enough for the other team to tell what it
is and figure it out.
"If they start to score on the defense
we are using then I'll change it. I do get
some help from Miss Bolton and the
players, as far as observing what is
happening
As the playmaker on the ECU team,
Ellen rarely gets to shoot the ball. Even
so, she has been one of !he top
percentage shooters on the team the last
few games.
Coach Bolton said even though Ellen
does not shoot much, the threat to the
other team that she will score is there.
"If they leave her alone out there
she'll score for us, but if they don't we'll
score elsewhere. She's helping our
offense in that she gets the coverage out
there to open up the play inside
Ellen said she doesn't mind not

major Photo by Kip Sloan.

scoring and that she has always been the
player to pass off to someone else.
"I've never been much of a scorer. I've
always just run the offense and defense.
I enjoy doing that, but I'm not as
aggressive offensively as I'd like to be.
That is one aspect of my play I'd like to
work on.
"This year we are trying to go out and
play a faster style of basketball, which
means we have to get the ball up court
faster. To do that you have to hit the
open man
This year will be Ellen's last year of
basketball and she is having the best
time ever this year.
"It's more exciting this year because
we are more together as a team. We
have a lot of individuals who do
something special and it fits together
weil as a team. I don't think we have
reached our peak yet and I am really
looking forward to the rest of the year. I
see improvements with every game
Even though she has a fondness for
basketball, Ellen has many other
interests, too. Among the other sports
she enjoys are tennis, swimming and
camping. In addition to this, Ellen played
field hockey at ECU this past fall, the
first time she had evei played the sport.
Ellen is also the chairperson of the
Student Advisory Council to Women's
Athletics. A unique committee pertaining
only to the women's athletic program,
the group is composed of athletes from
each sport who advise Miss Bolton on
decisions she must deal with concerning
the various women's teams at ECU.
"It is a sounding body set up last year
between the athletes and the coaches
explained Garrison. "We wanted to unify
the program and help Miss Bolton in
giving support to her decisions and
giving her input. We have established a
code of ethics for the program, in the
hope of improving the standards of
women's athletics.
"I don't know what will happen with
the committee in the future, but if it is
handled right it could be a productive
thing for women's athletics
With plans to begin her field vork in
Asheville next quarter and future goals of
becoming an aquatics instructor for the
physically handicapped, this mountain
girl come east will soon be returning
home.
In the meantime, however, Ellen will
be keeping busy with her many activities
and looking forward to the remainder of
this winter's basketball slate.
"I enjoy playing basketball, but with
getting ready to go home next quarter, I
have a lot of work to do. Right now,
though, it is all basketball. I'm really
looking forward to the rest of the season
and the state tournament.
"I am enjoying this year more than
any other here and I am enjoying playing
basketball more than ever before

Mclntyre leaps into spotlight as ECU triple jumper
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
In sports, people often think
confidence is the one thing that sets the
great athletes ahead of the good ones.
Well, if that is true, watch out Southern
Conference track teams, because Herman
Mclntyre is full of confidence.
"When I see the man that I'll be
jumping against before the meet replies
the triple jumper, "I just go up to him
and tell him how bad I'm gonna beat him
by. Some people might call that
bragging, but when you back that up
with a first place, it's all facts
The freshman jumping sensation from
Laurinburg has the inside track on the
triple jump championship next week at
the Southern Conference Indoor Track
and Field Championships. He has leaped
49'3 indoors this season and has been
consistently around 49 feet. He hopes to
better his current best at the conference
meet.
"I'd like to go 51 (feet) at the
conference or at Ohio State the following
week stated Mclntyre. "I think this
would possibly qualify me for the
nationals. That is my goal
Mclntyre started triple jumping his
junior year in high school and seemed
most adept at it from the beginning. He
tried it for the first time two weeks
before the state championships and
leaped better than 42 feet. This was
outstanding for the initial attempt at the
leap. This qualified Mclntyre for the state
meet and he came through real well,
finishing second in the state to George
Jackson, now his teammate at East
Carolina, with a fine jump of 46'8
Last year, during his senior year at
Laurinburg Scotland, he adapted his style
to that of most collegiate jumpers and
was consistently getting 47 to 48 feet out
of his leaps. He did fine until the state
meet when "I choked and could do no
better than second
Mclntyre was an ail-around high
school track stay as he excelled in
several events. He ran a :50.0 time in the
440-yard dash, a :14.9 clocking in the
120-yard high hurdles, leaped 21'11" in
the long jump, and high jumped 6'4
Mclntyre gave a lot of the credit for his

improvement to his high school coach.
"My high school coach saw that I had
some talent and really worked with me.
He refined my technique and started me
on the collegiate style
In his spare time, Mclntyre enjoys
basketball, swimming, and eating, along
with other college life pleasures, such as
girls and partying.
Since track has an indoor and outdoor
season, Mclntyre is looking forward to
the outdoor season. He thinks his
outdoor leaps will be much better.
"I think I can go 52 to 53 feet in the
outdoor season said the confident
freshman. "But I'm shooting higher than
that, because I want to be able to tell
everybody I go against I'm gonna beat
them and I don't like to tell a lie
With that kind of confidence,
Mclntyre should go places before he
leaves East Carolina.
Hoop playoffs find upsets
Men's and women's intramural
championships began this week.
In the first round playoff games, in
which the 15 winners qualified, the third-
ranked Hatchets and the Belk Bucks
received byes. The feature game of the
first-round found the top-ranked Nutties
Buddies defeating the second-ranked
Average White Team, 33-30, to hold on to
the number one ranking. The Buddies
later defeated the Belk Bucks to advance
to the finals of the Dorm championship
against the Hatchets. The Hatchets
defeated the Purple Steam, 69-56, to
advance to the finals.
In the Fraternity division, Pi Kappa
Phi zonked Tau Kappa Epsilon, 63-37, to
earn a playoff berth against Lambda Chi
Alpha, which beat Alpha Phi Omega,
37-32.
The Independent league championship
will be' a matchup between the
Desperados and the Herbs Superbs. The
Desperados slipped by Lafayette Holiday,
52-48, and the Superbs scored with two
seconds left to down the favored
Bitterweed Gang, 47-45.
The Independent, Fraternity and
Dormitory championships all took place
last night, while the Club Division
playoffs between the P. E. Majors and Phi
Epsilon Kappa will take place on
Thursday.
Semifinal matcnes will be held next
Thursday and the championships will be
on next Saturday, February 21.
In women's play, the four top teams
in each division made the playoffs. The
four leagues therefore netted sixteen
playoff teams.
The biggest upset came about when
the Cotton Bunnies defeated the
Whatchamacallits, 28-25, in the opening
round. The Whatchamacallits had been
undefeated prior to the game. Another
major upset occurred when Tyler One
beat the previously undefeated P.E.
Majors by 31-29. Other semifinal games
found Granny's Greats and Fletcher
winning a pair of games each to advance.
The sorority championships were
played last night with Delta Zeta meeting

place on Monday and the finals for the
all-campus titlist will take place next
Tuesday prior to the ECU Women's
game.
The women's intramural swim meet
will take place Monday, February 16, at
4:30 in the Memorial Gym pool.
Registration will be on Friday, February

Bike Ride
There is still time to apply to join the
Collegiate Cross-Country Bike Ride being
held in honor of the American Revolution
Bicentennial, according to Steve Danz,
College group co-ordinator.
The special college-age group will be
leaving from Pueblo, Colorado, and
arriving approximately 45 days later in
Richmond, Virginia. Thus far, college
students from 20 states have joined. The
route itself will be along the Trans
America Bike Trail. The trail will be newly
inaugurated this summer, and students
must be members of the official
Bikecentennial group to ride the trail. It
is estimated that the riders will cover
50-70 miles per day, and will camp and
stay in youth hostels on the trip. While
thousands of bikers will be on the trail,
no single group of riders will number
more than 12, in order not to over-load
the trail or the accomodations en route.
College students wishing to join the ride,
starting on June 21, should write directly
to Collegiate Bikecentennial, 615-Nevada,
Sausalito, California, 94965 and enclose
a stamped, self-addressed envelope.
