By BETTY GUNTER
Staff Writer
Dr. John East, a Greenville
resident and professor of
Political Science at ECU has
been chosen as a national
committeeman for the
Republican Party.
"There are at least 100
persons in the national com-
mittee with each state having
one woman and one man
East said. Mrs. Mary Louise
Smith is head of the national
committee.
East added that the Repub-
lican State Chairman is also
part of the national committee.
East was nominated at the
Republican State Convention
held in Greensboro in June
1976
One of the duties of a
national committeeman is to
attend periodica1 Republican
meetings in Washington, D.C.
to discus formal matters,
according to East.
"My own personal contri-
bution as national oommittee-
man is to get people more
sensitive toward political
issues and to gain more
feedback from them East
commented.
"My position as national
committeeman fa the Repub-
lican Party will run for four
years East said.
When asked about his
personal views concerning the
Republic Party's chances in
the electrnn, East commented
that the polls suggest the
Republican Party faces stiff
competition with Democratic
candidate Jimmy Carter
"The poll should be taken
with a grain of salt meaning a
particular moment in time
East said.
At the moment Carter is
riding high and the Republican
Party is divided, but when the
party settles down the battle
will be narrowed
Dr. East has been teaching
at ECU since 1964. While
teaching, East is also active in
politics.
He ran for Republican
candidate for Congress in the
first district in 1966, and also
attended the Republican Con-
vention in 1968 as a delegate
In 1972 he served as an
elector.

JENKINS FINE A RTS CENTER - This dozer driver fills in around
the grounds of the new art complex to assure a stable ground for
the numerous overworked art majors to trod upon while going to

Forty-nine Ethnic Heritage
Studies programs proposed by
public and nonpublic edu-
cational agencies, institutions,
and organizations in 32 States
and the District of Columbia
have received grants totaling
$1.8 million, HEW's Office of
Education announced today.
The grants were made
under Title IX of the Ele-
mentary and Secondary Edu-
cation Act of 1965, as amend-
ed, to encourage the develop-
ment of opportunities for
individuals and groups of
individuals to learn more
about their own cultural herit-
age and the cultural heritage
and contributions of others.
Grantees were chosen from
570 proposals requesting a
total of about $30 million.
Consideration was given to
representative projects at the
various educational levels-
elementary, secondary, and
higher education-and to geo-
graphic distribution. Every
project, regardless of major
focus, is required to show
evidence of community co-
operation, including the crea-
tion of a local advisory council.

Washington, D.C. group lobbies for students
The oourse of higher education in the U.S. for
this decade and beyond will be determined
significantly by Congressional legislation this
year. Lawmakers in Washington are currently
evaluating and in part rewriting the Education
Amendments Act of 1972. Acting in behalf of
university and college students nationwide, the
National Student Lobby will monitor this
'egislation while orofferina recommendations
which by its ascertainment are in the best
interests of students as a class.
The Higher Education Amendments of 1976,
comprised of the Senate's Omnibus Education
Bill of 1976 and the House's 1976 Higher
Education Amendments and Guaranteed Student
Loan Amendments of 1976, when passed by
Congress sometime this year, will reauthorize all
federal higher education programs, including all
student aid programs. The various provisions of
this legislation deal specifically with the Basic
Grant and Work Study Programs, special pro-
grams for students from disadvantages back-
grounds, bankruptcy (defaulting on educational
loans), and the Trigger Amendment to House
legislation, which .would tie student aid programs
to institutional development projects. The fate of
this amendment would affect the ratio of federal
monies channeled directly to students to the
amount given colleges and universities for capital
improvements.
NSL has written a factsheet on the key
provisions of the higher education legislation and
is circulating it to student groups throughout the
country. The circular examines current wording
of House and Senate bills, specifies differing
versions, and includes a "draft" position on the
various provisions. Before taking a formal
position on the legislative wording NSL is seeking
student input on these bills. The degree of
feedback NSL receives from students on this
legislation will not only serve as a barometer on
student perceptions of bills themselves, but could
also determine if students of American colleges
and universities believe NSL is a representative
arm of their goals and interests.

Since it does not hold elections for start
positions, NSL must determine what students'
views are on specific issues through evaluations
based on feedback from member student
governments. "The corporation shall work to
increase communications between students
across the nation, and to focus and organize
student energies towards realizing, through
established legislative and governmental pro-
cesses, goals determined by the students enrolled
at the schools of the member student govern-
ments of the National Student Lobby states the
articles of incorporation filed Feb. 22, 1972.
Commentary
The idea to establish a non-profit corporation
to lobby for students at the national level can be
credited in part to Layton Olson, one of the three
signatories of the articles. In 1971 Olson was a
lawyer for a student group that lobbied on the
state level in California. He went on to become
salaried director of NSL.
David Rosen, the present director of NSL,
describes the lobby as a combination of
leadership and intern services. Leadership is
provided by Rosen and Danny Schottenfels, the
legislative director of NSL. The bulk of the
group's lobbying effort is done by interns. They
are stuaenis wno work tor the lobby for a period
of time at barely subsistance wage. Some schools
allow interns to receive credit for their
experience. Rosen describes an internship as an
opportunity to become involved in the legislative
process and to work firsthand to see laws passed
that will benefit students. NSL operates on an
annual budget that may fluctuate from $20,000 to
$120,000. According to Rosen, "the lobby has
always been a low budget operation, has run less
and lesson money and more and more on student
energy. When we go to lunch with a legislator we
usually let him pick up the check
Funding for NSL is received from the nearly
300 school organizations that are NSL members.
When these organizations begin communicating
their reactions to the lobby's draft proposals on
the 1976 higher education bill, the proposals will
then be sent to members of Congress who will si 1
on the conference committee to determine th(
final wordina of the leaislation. Then Schotten
fels' lobbying activities will become even mor
intense.
In the meantime, it would be to the benefit
university and college students, present anc
prospective, to familiar -e themselves with thi:
legislation and tooommi licate their evaluation
of it to their representa. i 'es in Washington. If
would also behoove state university systems,
of which are represented on the state level bj
member school organizations, to become involve
with NSL and to let their desires be known to theij
representatives. In North Carolina's UNC syster
the North Carolina Association of Studenl
Governments (NCASG) oould speak for th(
member student organizations in an evaluation
these bills.
With the prediction that by 1980 there will

Washington is mandatory. NSL oould be th

elson Slater slated for big success
ByJOEKEISTLER
Staff Writer
With his first album to be
eoorded and released, Nelson
ater has accomplished quite
feat. He has assimilated a
bination of excellence, as-
isted by Lou Reed as pro-
ucer, with Wild Angel, that is
lure to launch him as a new
ecording personality.
To begin with, many of the
longs do sound very much like
iOu Reed. It is easy to imagine
,ou recording some of them,
specially "Wild Angel
"Sad About It and "We
'hey sound almost as if Slater
las copied him drastically, and
terhaps he did. The two
layed together many years
igo, before Lou Reed got
arted, in New Yak. There-
e, if you appreciate the type
f music that Lou Reed puts
ut, the album is worth
guying.
I Another selling point,
hich will hopefully attract
uyers, is the fact that Nelson
ater sounds remarkably like
ruce Springsteen. Even
iiough the music is obviously
mpletely different, their
Is have definite similar-
es. Springsteen fans can
njoy how his distinctive vocal
ilities would be used in a
fferent musical aspect.
Unfortunately, the final
that some people will
y the album, is that Slater
pens to be handsome. This
s to attract buyers today,
e for example, Peter
pton or Roger Daltery.
er looks almost as if he is
ivid Carradine double. If a
ber of people do purchase
album purely on this basis,
have still made a good
ion, for a change.
Overall, the album is quite
good. Slater wrote all but two
of the songs, and he did help
write these. Lou Reed's pro-
duction is practically flawless
and the group of almost all
unknowns that play on the
album do an excellent job.
They include: George Haggis
John Brengelman, Bruce Yaw,
Mike Suchorsky, Bob Kulick,
Marty Fogel Lou Reed and
David Horowitz. Sater himself
plays the bowed electric guitar
and piano.
Taking all of these possible
reasons for buying the album,
hopefully Nelson Slater's Wild
Angel will be a big success.
Beach Boys strike again
By MARK LOCK WOOD
Staff Writer
Yes all you lovers of
surfing and California girls,
the Beach Boys are back with a
wild and wooly single that will
absolutely make you drool with
nostagia. The now rejuve-
nated Brian Wilson and the
rest of the gang (Mike Love,
Alan Jardine, Dennis Wilson
and Carl Wilson) have oome
up with a tune that will make
you want to grab your boards
and hit the surf.
The single, entitled "Rock
and Roil Music" is a Chuck
Berry oldie adapted by Brian.
This song, along with the B
side entitled "Transcendental
Meditation" are included on
the Beach Boys' up and
coming album entitled 15 Big
Ones with Brian Wilson at the
helm as producer-songwriter-
performer along with the rest
of the group. The album is
tentatively scheduled to be
released on July 4th in con-
junction with the beginning of
the Beach Boys American
Tour.
The song "Rock and Roll
Music" is very reminiscent of
a popular Beach Boys oldie
"Surfin' USA The vocal
harmonics are still there, and
Brian's production, as always,
is impeccable. At present the
song stands 40 on the charts
and is rapidly moving its way
up (just like the old days
huh?). The flip side, entitled
"The Transcendental Medita-
tion Song" was written by
Brian Wilson. This is a kind of
fun thing with Al Jardine
singing leads amidst Cheech
and Chong impressions,
arguing and Alan replaying,
"It's time for me to med-
itate ' The sleezy saxophone's
kinda nice too in this song.
Look for the Beach Boys'
special Aug. 5 on NBC.

Moll for "technical"
assistance.

HELIX scores in mall performance
By MARK LOCK WOOD
Staff Writer
Helix, an up and coming
band, played what turned out
to be a spectacular concert for
all involved in an outdoor
affair on the mall Monday.
A jazz-oriented group, all
members exhibited from the
onset a particular flair fa
originality, and a lot of talent.
The group halls from
Florida, and the members are:
Jim Ward (Guitar), David
Darlington (Bass), Paul
Valentine (drums), Mithran
Cabot (percussion), Todd Mc
Kinney (keyboards), Bob
Harris (lead vocals), Elbert
Duncan (saxophone and flute)
and Tommy Smith (trumpet
and flugelhorn).
Tha band started off the set
with a song entitled "Movin'
On" featuring some powerful
vocals by Harris, who seems to
embody the style of Marty
Balin or the like.
David Darlington provided
a resounding background to
this fast-paced number with
his playing of fuzz bass with
some solid accompaniment
and solos by Todd McKinney
on keyboards and Tommy
Smith on trumpet.
The next song, entitled
"I'll be Ready featured Jim
Ward playing a kind of
"funky" guitar with Durham
and Smith providing some
exoellent solos on sax and
trumpet respectively. Mc
Kinney came up with some
ARP work similar to Chick
Corea in flavor. Once again
Harris on vocals provided
power to the song.
The next number featured
Elbert Durham on sax and
Tommy Smith on flugelhorn
with some mellow vocals by
lead guitarist, Jim Ward. Also
featured in the sona, entitled
"I Know You're Leaving
were some impressive guitar
leads by Ward and solid bass
playing by McKinney.
The followina out, entitled
"Mystic Melody once again
featured the vocals of Jim
Ward in a kind of soft, bluesy
song reminiscent of B.B.
King, progressing into a hard
driving piece featuring all
members of the group.
Perhaps the most
homorous song of the night
was "Rain Forest" featuring
various jungle noises and the
always more than ample vocals
of Bob Harris. The "fuzzy"
effects with guitar and bass in
this number were impressive
as Darlington and Ward
"dueled" for stage presence.
The gradual build up of
octaves effect in "Rain
Forest" created a great sense
of power which made this song
perhaps one of the most
impressive songs of the night.
Durham and Smith provided a
driving sound heavily en-
hanced by "feverish" drums
of Paul Valentine and the
excellent conga playing of
Mithran Cabot.
This song then transposed
into a soft, mellow, bluesy
flute niece bv Durham "about
symbiosis entitled " Bird on a
Horses' Back Harris pro-
vided "crooning" vocals
similar to Joni Mitchell
(believe it or not) in a
simultaneous solo with Dur-
ham on flute. Then Harris
proceeded to onos again evoke
his versatility with a dual part
with Todd McKinney on ARP
synthesizer.
"Walking into the Rhythm
of Your Love" - "a funky
mambo" aooording to Harris
included a Latin beat with
some good flute work by
Durham and impressive conga
playing by Cabot. In this song
everybody joined into what
turned out to be a frenzy of
dancing and percussion play-
ing - definintely a fun type of
song and probably the high-
light of the concert.
"Burner Brawn Vamp a
kind of rock n' roll number,
featured some good keyboard
work by McKinney (much like
Corea) and some good guitar
leads by Jim Ward. A very
moving, driving, number.
"I Think I Know" was a
kind of soulful number featur-
ing all members of the band
with some heavy vocals and
excellent instrumentation.
Once again, the audience
joined in on the number.
The enoore number was a
throbbing, moving jazz num-
ber entitled "Midnite
Molybdenum" featuring some
good fuzz bass by Darlington
and some good work by all
members of the band. Truly a
fitting end to an excellent
conoert.
Helix, who write all their
own material, should be oom-
ing out with an album in the
Fall, according to Bob Harris,
lead vocalist of the group. If
you missed the conoert, you
should set the album - they're
that good.
