McGinnis faces
possible funds
By DAVID NASH
SGA Reporter
The SGA, last evening, pas-
sed a resolution to the North
Carolina General Assembly in
support of funding fa the renova-
tion of McGinnis Auditorium.
According to the resolution,
"physical conditions of McGinnis
Auditorium are in bad disrepair,
such as little space backstage,
seating area uncomfortable and
past the point of repair, lobby
facilities inadequate, and shop
facilities are inadequate at best
"This resolution is to prove
that the students of ECU are
behind the renovation of McGin-
nis Auditorium, rather than just
the students of the Drama
Department, according to Legis-
lator David Eason.
The building funds for ECU
cannot support such an expan-
sion, (estimated at $2.5 million),
according to the resolution.
A resolution approving Karen
Harloe as Attorney General pas-
sed unanimously.
Bills introduced include an
appropriation to the Office of
Academic Affairs for retreats for
the psychology department and the
Parks and Recreation Dept.

Calder explained his policy
concerning on-campus drug use.

SGA to provide
buses to games
By DEBBIE JACKSON
Co-News Edita
The SGA will begin providing
transportation to basketball
games this Thursday, accading
to Dean Browder, assistant SGA
Transportation Manager.
"What we're doing is trying
to run a shuttle system to
basketball games to provide
transpatatioi fa dam students
who would aherwise be faced to
walk said Browder.
Accading to Browder, there
will be two buses utilized in the
project.
"One bus will make a pick-up
at Mendenhall and the aher one
at the top of the hill by Tyler
dam
Browder said that the system
is presently on a trial basis and
they will wait to see if it receives
enough student response.
We could run the buses with
anywhere from 10 to 15 people
The pick-ups will be made at 7
p.m and the buses will return to
the dams about 15 minutes after
the game is over, accading to
Browder.
"We got the idea fa the
shuttle system ai Saturday night
when it was raining said
Browder.
He said that the idea was
discussed last year but never was
finalized.
Browder said that the shuttle
system should help the "Intimi-
dation" theme of the winter
spats. The idea is to get as many
people as possible to all spats in
ader to intimidate the opposing
school.
"We'd I ike to get mae people
over to Minges to see a young,
hustling basketball team
WHAT DO YOU MEAN this machine won't take dollar bills?!

Violent searches
The shoddy manner in which Greenville
pd ice-aided by a campus security officer-conducted
four room searches in two dormitories during
November shows little regard fa privacy, personal
property and civil rights of innocent students.
Only one of the searches turned up illegal drugs.
However, one search resulted in the illegal
confiscation of a pipe. Although no dope was found,
police told the occupant of the room being searched
that possession of a pipe was against university
regulations. Chief of Campus Security Joe Calder
later admitted there is no such policy, but police have
not returned the pipe to its owner. Police searched
another room while the occupants were gone. Again
no dope was discovered, but the room was
ransacked. A stereo speaker belonging to one of the
occupants was found lying on the floor with a dent in
it, but no one in either the Greenville Police
Department a Campus Security Office has offered to
make restitution.
In addition to these storm trooper tactics, police
exhibited a great lack of professionalism in obtaining
the warrants. In at least two of the searches the
names indicated on the warrants were not those of the
occupants of the rooms. Calder told FOUNTAIN-
HEAD that the correct names are not important nor
legally required on warrants as they are issued fa
searching premises not individuals. But, he also said
there was no reason fa the names to be wrong when
all the infamatiai needed to make the warrant
accurate was available in the campus security office.
State and federal laws obligate city and campus
polioe to prevent the distribution of illegal drugs and
to apprehend those unlawfully involved in this
activity. But when officers make mistakes in the
perfamanoe of this duty it is usually the innocent
citizen who suffers. To assure fewer blundered
searches in the future, those officers involved in this
November nightmare should be officially reprimand-
ed fa their tactics. Campus and city officials should
investigate these officers' conduct during the
searches and if evidence demands it, proper legal
action should be taken.

Showdown in Fleming
'Twas a Thursday in Decem-

And in Fleming Hall things
were quiet as could be.
Until down the hall, there
arose a great shout:
"A roach was the ay, "they
are all about
In the twinkling of an eye,
mae saeams were heard and
soon there was stomping - the
noise was absurd.
Some in their blue jeans flung
open their doas, to find chairs
and tables being thrown on the
floa.
"Get the bug spray! Get the
power! Kill them now! Kill them
all! If you don't it will be the
death of Fleming Hall
And we stomped and we
sprayed late into the night - it was
over now - we put up a good fight.
None had slept, na one girl in
twenty, The roaches have won,
there are still a'plenty.
Maal: If you think this poem is

"The one gap in the know-
ledge of MesoAmerican prehis-
tory is the period just before and
during the Spanish invasion. The
Spaniards moved in and set up
capitals on Indian capital sites,
destroying them.
"All we have are native
documents that tell what the
Indians think they did and
Spanish documents that tell what
they think the Indians did.
"These historical accounts do
not cover all phases of life; there
�s no information on how most of
the people lived according to
Dr. Kenneth Brown, Assistant
Professor of Anthropology.
In order to help fill this gap,
Dr. Brown will conduct surveys
and excavations of the Quiche
Basin this spring and summer.
The project will be funded by a
National Geographic Grant of
$13,100.
In Highland Guatemale, most
of the Indian sites were in
defendable locations, which made
the Indians hard for the Spanish
to control. The Spanish moved the
native population to more control-
lable areas, leaving the aiginal
sites practically intact.
Testing the sites against
models formed.through transla-
ting Spanish and Quiche docu-
ments creates what Dr. Brown
calls "ideal conditions" for re-
search.
The project will be a combina-
tion of ethnohistory, archaeology,
and linguistics. Hundreds of
native and Spanish documents
will supply a model for the
behavior of the people.
Dr. Brown will test the models

at the sites and modify them to
make them more accurate.
" Because the sites are basically
intact, we will be able to push the
model back in time and see how
the people lived.
"Linguists will attempt to
provide a reconstruction of proto-
history Quiche, the native lan-
guage. This will give us more
accurate translations of native
documents and would provide a
lot of checks on our models.
"This is a unique opportunity
Brown said. "We have the
potential for coming up with
better cultural reconstructions
than we have from at least
MesoAmerica, if not the New
World
Dr. Brown will take between
five and seven students from ECU
and State University of New York
at Albany to help with the
excavations and surveys.
The coursed, Anthropology
361G, can be taken only with the
permission of Dr. Brown.
He also plans to hire about 25
Guatemalan workers There is a
need for employment in Guate-
mala after last year's earthquake,
aooording to Dr. Brown.
Students attending the field
school will be shifted between two
excavations being conducted
during the spring. One will be of a
defended, fortified site and the
other is a slightly later open
valley site. Dr. Brown hopes to
survey as much of the 900 square
kilometer basin as possible.
The base of operation and the
field school will be Santa Cruz Del
Quiche, a rural, conservative
area. Brown went there fa two
weeks on a grant from the
University Research Councif to
find out what the village people
will allow and to convince them
that he would not go beyond that.
"Legally, we oould use the
Army Post and body guards to do
whatever we want to. But that is
not the way to do archaeology a
to do anything with people.
"Legally, the land is owned by
the Guatemalan government. I
would rather have the people
behind us than fighting with us
abotf it. It is their land and their
culture Brown said.
"They know who is buried in
those mounds. There are func-
tioning alters on some of the
Structures. It is like desecrating

Dr. Brown has applied fa a
National Science Foundation
Grant of $127,000, which will
probably come through in April.
He will also re-apply fa the
National Geographic Grant in
August, to fund mae research in
January 1978.
Students attending the field
school this spring are responsible

job through ECU'S Coopaative
Education Office, a relatively new
ECU program which allows stu-
dents to alternate work with
quarters of classroom study.
Aooording to Terry, her chief
responsibility at NASA head-
quarters involved processing

Textbooks fill publishing demand
(CPS)-When students begin
studying for their first economics
exam, chances are they will
overlook one very rich lesson in
basic supply and demand theory.
That textbook, for which the
student has probably supplied
between $13 to $15, is happily
and steadily filling the pub-
lisher's demand.
The textbook industry is a
financial oasis in the publishing
business as new markets open up
in adult education, women's
studies and text which one
leading publisher says are down-
shifted for the increasing number
of junior colleges, oommunity
colleges and night school oourses.
There is also a "return to basics
in education philosophy in 1976
reports Jim Bradford at Scott,
Foresman and Co. publishers.
This trend marks a change
from the past five years. "In
1971, we were still in Vietnam.
Today, students are more in-
terested in what this course will
do for them in terms of ooping
with the world. There is a focus
on the consumer side of eco-
nomics Bradford said.
Textbooks are being geared
more toward practical education.
Today a student can open a
textbook and learn how to borrow
money for a new car, finance a
house, or even balance a check-
book, instead of confronting one
hundred years of historical data.
In fact, the all-time best-seller on
the college textbook charts is a
volume called Accounting Prin-
aples by C. Rollin Niswonger and
PhihipC. Fess which has been on
the list for 2444 weeks and is in its
eleventh edition. And for anyone
who thought that textbooks exist-
ed only fa that rare student who
is adept at memorizing dates and
figures, Prentice-Hall publishers
put out a text called Life
Insurance that has been selling
steadily since 1912. The new
edition is priced at $15.95 and is
expected to sell 25,000 oopies in
1976.
But the words "new edition"
are enough to bring tears to the
eyes of a student taking intro-
ductory oourses like economics or
political science. These courses
often require texts which are
revised regularly and that means
that a student cannot buy the
book used and possibly save as
much as fifty percent.
Fa the publisher, though, the
used book business is a pain in
the profits. In fact, one of the
main reasons fa revisions, ac-
cording to a leading college
textbook publisher, is to cut out
the used book market. Apparently
there is no money fa publishers
in used books.
Barnes and Noble, which
operates used book franchises,
buys books back at 40 percent of
the aiginal oost and resells them
at 60 percent. The autha of the
book being resold receives no
royalties as songwriters do.
The publisher pf the college
textbook must also deal with an
interesting fam of rip-off, that of
the free sample. Periodically,
publishers will distribute thou-
sands of complimentary books to
professas fa possible sales a
reviews. However, these books
are often sold to the used book
dealer.
It oost a publisher between $3
and $5 to give away a $12 text, fa
example, and often that text
ends up on the eyecatching table
marked 60-70 cents. Scott, Fores-
man and Co. recently gave away
nearly 10,000 copies of a new
biology text but it turned out to be
a fruitless endeava. A souroe of
the publishing oompany repated
that these conplimentary editiois
would probably be sold by the
professas fa their own profit and
cited one instance in which
sample books were sold to f inance
parties.
Nevertheless, publishing

speaker at the Dec. 9, meeting of
the ECU Law Society.
Reid, who was city attaney
fa Greenville fran 1965 to 1976,
spoke on "The Role of the City

Reid described the role of city
attaney as that of an adviser and
not a policy-maker.
Accading to Reid, the Nath
Carolina general statutes define
the city attaney as being the
chief legal adviser fa a munici-
pality.
"I treated the city as just

Accading to Reid, being city

"I spent about 15 per cent of

Reid said that his job was
made interesting during the
sixties by Vietnam and the civil
rights movement.
He recalled the time when the
Ku Klux Klan applied fa a
parade permit at the same time
as a civil rights group. "This
created a very tense situation
said Reid.
Accading to Reid, there were
many problems related to Viet-
nam.
"There were many marches
and demonstrations against the
war, and sometimes the demon-
stratas would encounter some of
the more patriotic citizens and
this caused problems said Reid.
Reid stressed the point that
the city attaney does not advise
the police.
"The city has employed a
fulltime police attorney, to
advise the police on the discharge
of their duty said Reid.
Teresa Whisenant, president
of the Law Society, stated that the

companies are still priming the

average advance on a college
textbook of $5000 and royalty
payments are being doled out at a
rate of 15 percent.
There is one encouraging
movement by publishers to make
textbooks more responsive to
classroom audiences. They're en-
couraging a collaboration be-
tween the professional recog-
nized autha and the professa at
the small oommunity college who
is more familiar with his a her

Journalism review cites
racial bias in newspapers
(LNS)0n October 30, 1975,
the body of a 15-year-old white
teenager, Martha Moxley, was
discovered in the exclusive Belle
Haven section of Greenwich,
Connecticut. She had been beaten
to death with a golf club. In the
seven days that followed, the New
York Times, the New York Daily
News and the New York Post
?voted almost 1,800 lines and
i ne photographs to her death.
In those same seven days,
h rive people were murdered in
Harlem. The Post devoted 85
lines and no photos to four of the
twelve, and the News was com-
pletely silent about all twelve
victims. The Times mentioned
five of the victims without photos,
while running front stories about
the sentencing of a Harlem youth
for the murder of a young white in
New York.
A New York Daily News
feature writer gathered these
figures for an article which
appeared in the recent issue of
MORE, a journalism review. The
article shows how the homicide
coverage of the three major New
York dailies is one way the papers
restructure reality along racial
lines.
The picture that consistently
emerges from the "intellectual
Times the "conservative
News" and the "liberal Post" the
writer says, is that "blacks and
hispanics commit crimes while
their role as victims is slight.
Victims are white. And the closer
they are to the middle-dass status
of the papers' editors, the bigger
the story
One example presented in the
MORE article concerned the
three papers' coverage of an
incident on June 25,1975. On that
day. a 32-year-old black man,
Philip Wright, was shot to death
by two white New York City
policemen.
Of the nine shots which struck
Wright, five were in his back, and
according to one witness, some of
the shots were fired after Wright
lay on the ground. The Guar-
dians' Association, an organiza-
tion of black members of the New
York Police Department, was
especially aitical about the shots
in the back.
But in the stories that ran in
the News and Times the two days
following the murder (the Post
ignored the stay canpletely) no
mention was made of conflicting
aocounts a of the Guardians'
questioning. Instead, what was
prominent in both stales, the
MORE articles point out, was
the fact that Wright had served
time in prison and had a histay of
mental illness. The opening para-
graph quoted police desaiption of
Wright as a "psycho and
almost a third of the story
desaibed alleged injuries to the
officer, although eyewitnesses
said the policemen were never
struck by Wright.
"The Times and News staies
are case studies in the tendency
of editors and reporters to
unquestioningly accept the police
version of an incident involving a
black, even if that version should
have raised serious questions
about the propriety of police
actions
" Both stories the MORE
writer notes, "lead off with the

heard in court, a prisoner must
allege "acts a anissiais" that
were "sufficiently harmful" to
demonstrate this level of in-
difference.
LNS spoke with Matthew
Myers - staff attaney fa the
American Civil Liberties Union's
Natioial Prison Project - to get
his perspective on the signi-
ficance of the Supreme Court
deasion.
"In my opinion, there's a dual
significance Myers began.
"First of all, despite the fact that
the lower courts have always
recognized prisoners' rights to
medical care, this is the first time
that the Supreme has considpred
the issue and decideu that
prisoners do have a constitutional
right to adequate medical care.
To that extent it's an impatant
statement of approval of the lower
court's decisions.
"But the focus an deliberate'
indifference is unfortunate
Myers oontinued, "because it
focuses on the matter of intention
- as opposed to the quality of care
itself.
"The main question will lie in
the court's interpretation of the
term deliberate and that's too
early to predict Myers said.
As fa the impact of the
decision Myers felt it could lead
to mae prisoners filing federal
court suits.
"But realistically it won't
make too much difference he
oontinued. "Maybe some mae
cases, but it went change what
already is in terms of the poa
medical care prisoners continue
to receive.
"There are two problems
Myers explained. "First, most
prisons are woefully understaffed
in terms of medical personnel. So
it is not unusual fa prisoners to
receive inadequate medical care
simpiy because there are not
enough medical personnel a-
round.
Secondly, it's inherent in the
prison system, and in the hostility
and distrust that develops be-
tween prisoners and prison staff,
that prison staff inevitably believe
that any prisoner who complains
of a medical problem but isn't
bleeding, is(avoding work)
Prison guards don't listen to
prisoners oomplaints, and so it's
not infrequent at all that serious
medical problems go undiag-
nosed and untreated.
"I got a letter from a prisoner
just yesterday who was afraid that
it he didn't show up fa wak
because he felt sick, he'd be put
mto segregation, and that's what
happened.
"Realistically, any time that
prison persainel blocks a prison-
er from getting proper medical
attention, that should be inter-
preted as "deliberate" indif-
ference said Myers, "because
they're not trained to make that
kind of deasion and shouldn't
The question of actually a-
warding a prisoner damages once
a case has gone to court is a whole
other problem. "Judges and
juries tend to empathize with
prison staff as opposed to pri-
soners, Myers noted. "They
tend to believe that guards have a
hard enough time as it is, so
we're not going to hold them
responsible fa damages
"The guidelines fa making a
decision are so flexible that
damages are awarded very in-
frequently. You can count the
success cases on two hands

Elephant's Memory
funky, listenable
By MICHAELFUTCH
Assistant Trends Editor
Stan Bronstein and Elephant's
Memory played to a rather
pathetic handful last Thursday
night in Wright Auditorium. This
was a pity as the New York- based
band put on a fine perfamance,
and the guitarist; Bronstein made
sure it relied on him the most.
The guitarist would be soaring
away on a solo when Bronstein
would cut in on sax, or worse, on
vocals. Maybe he is the leader,
but there should be an equal
amount of exposure in a jazz-
on enated band.
LLtPHANT S MEMORY
considering their music form. It
was also a shame as the show was
free.
Elephant's Memory is where
the contemporary music scene
has slowly evolved. The music
they performed contained the
current essence of what has
become popular to a mass-record
audience. The band leans heavily
on the rhythmic influences of the
Black-Spanish-Jamaican reggae
islands" music, combined with
Top 40 disco and a definite
foundation of American rook and
roll
The group played with inspi-
ration, even considering the
sparse audience. Their music was
dance stuff, hard funk. On the
same level as Donald Byrd and
the Blackbyrds, this band went
further into improvision and
extension. They played music to
boogie by, but unfortunately the
only boogying was done by
Bronstein.
Elephant's Memory consisted
of : electric bass, electric guitar,
drums, and Bronstein on alto and
tenor saxophone. The band
should evolve into a straight
instrumental combo; Bronstein's
vocals left much to be desired.
The vocals proved to be the main
critical fault of the show. Ele-
phant's Memory could be a top
instrumental jazz combo. Instead,
they saturate their music with
average vocals.
Bronstein also appeared to
want the spotlight only for
himself. He is a very talented
musician, but then, his entire
band fails to lack in talent. The
improvision relied on Bronstein
Photo by Brian Stotler.
The combo did an inspiring
version of the old rook and roll
instrumental, "I Wanna' do the
Honky Tonk Another highlight
was their arrangement of Roberta
Flack's "Feel Like Making
Love Bronstein blew his head
off on this slow instrumental
version which evolved into an
extended jazz piece.
The majority of the tunes were
based on a disco form, but they
were extended by instrumental
improvision. Elephant's Memory
also handled the reggae, which is
now sweeping the country, fairly
well. It's a shame that the bands
responsible fa the popularity of
this form have not received due
recognition here in the States
(such as Bob Marley and the
Wallers, Johnny Nash, Toots and
the Maytals, Big Youth). It will be
up to bands like Elephant's
Memory to inform the music
public of reggae's roots.
Elephant's Memory were a
good solid band; they played the
kind of music that is listenable as
well as danceable (unlike most
disco-oriented bands). It was the
kind of concert that the maiority
of this campus, black or white
would have enjoyed. There was
plenty of room to dance off
tensions, but very little kinetic
energy was generated by the
small crowd. Disco and reggae
are not favorites of this reviewer,
but I can look objectively at this
band and their music product and
realize that this is where Ameri-
can pop music lies�and it can
only lie there because of a mass
appeal.
Elephant's Memory was free
and damned funky, but this
campus wants Kiss or Aerosmith
to destroy their ears and with kitsh
and noise.Alan Freed and Tom
Donahure, where are you both
when contemporary music needs
you so badly?
Elephant's Memory was pre-
sented by the Speaal Entertain-
ment Committee of the Student
' Union.

'Richard II'
MORE ELEPHANTS MEMORY
Photo by Brian ototier �
The play Richard the II is song and fire; Richard the II the
production is not What first appears as nervousness on the part of the
players manifests itself in the strangling character of Richard (Martin
Thompson) as a lack of role definition.
There are two directions in which modern theatre can take the
genius of Shakespeare. The players can do a faithful rendition of his
lines (which takes remarkable talent), attempting to recreate the
characters as Shakespeare held them, or they can re-vitalize the work
with a contemporary interpretation of his characters, using the lines
as a careful transition.
The flaw in this work is that it chooses to do neither, but rather
vacillates between attempting to delineate contemporary flaws (and
individuals), and portraying the England Shakespeare knew. This is
either in decisiveness a monumental cowardice on the part of the
director and it is this flaw that weakens what is otherwise a fine
production.
Nowhere is the fault of weak interpretation more evident in the
energetic, if confused performance of Thompson in the lead role.
Richard was a poet, an arrogant, a charmer, a victim of bad counsel,
but never a fop a a weakling. There is credence to the theory that he
was a homosexual, but tne boy of 14 who leads the army against the
peasants, invades Ireland, faces his abdication and death with

ate the difference between his garnering bad counsel and his being
sensuously massaged by his lads. There are no stage directions in
Shakespeare and this reviewer canna see the rationale fa depicting
Richard as so effeminate.
This is the problem with Thompson's perfamance. While being
directed to play the fop, his lines read of that of a man of dignity. All of
Thompson's strong scenes are vapid and underplayed. Richard's
moments in the tower; his ay of "Will no one say Amen9' at the
instant of abdication are indicative of monumental strength and
bitterness on Richard's part.
Richard is foolish and thoughtless, but he is tender and kind. He is
so much mae and less the character patrayed, that the production as
a whole drops in intensity. It depends on the beauty of Shakespeare's
lyrics and the inherent tragedy of loss fa its effectiveness.
In that the interpretation was weak and shatsighted, Thanpsai
as adequate in his patrayal of Richard. One must consider that he
night have been infinitely beer had he been allowed the range his
dialogue indicates. He occasionally iost the sense of Richard's youth,
but he displayed fierce energy and pain. This is one of Shakespeare's
hardest (and longest) roles. It takes courage to attempt it.
The other leads were good, if far less faboding. Rodney Freeze as
Boilingbrook fell victim to terminal eyebrow occasionally, yet his
monologues of challenge and banishment were strong. Mowbray
(Howell Brinkley) seemed awkward and stiff in comparison as he felt
the need to growl his lines, rather than generate emotion. He and John
of Gaunt (Steve Anderson) had no concept of what Shakespeare felt
was hona, devotion and chivalry.
Anderson muttered his lines and stumbled about the stage in
attempting to play the aged Duke. M ick Godwin as Edmund, had a role
of equal merit yet did infinitely mae with it. He was able to portray the
difference in age as the dignifying and debilitating process it is,
without collapsing onstage.
The remainder of the players (with an exception to be naed) are
generally harible, with the Duke of Aumerle (Dan Nichols), Fitzwater
(Bill Vann), and the Duchess of Yak (Rosalie Jacobs) being the notable
exceptions. Richard'scounselas(Kurt Busham, Robert Smith, Aubrey
Simpson) and Sir Saoop (Robert Johnson) should seriously consder
getting nai-speaking parts in an agricultural documentary befae
appearing oi stage again. They could learn much from an asparagus.
The best perfamance has yet to be noted, and I have saved it fa
the close, that it might be remembered above all others. Suzanne
Howell as Queen Isabel, is quite simply the finest serious dramatic
perfamer that this reviewer has ever seen on an ECU stage. She
displayed enamous sensitivity in her interpretation and she left one
seeing her asanempath, holding to her love fa Richaraasaily wanen
can love, queen a peasant. Though not overly given to flowery praise,
I contend, Miss Howell, you are Isabel as Shakespeare intended; one
cannot say mae.
The technical parts of the production were as they generally are in
ECU productions; excellent. The costumes and props were realistic
without being gaudy, and while I doubt the eraaty of Richard's turban

Study reveals crowding as cause of stress
By BARBARA LEWIS
Two may be company and
three a crowd. But according to
Rutgers University psychology
department, four may be the
making of a disaster. After three
years of study, a research project
headed by Dr. Yakov Epstein
concluded that crowded condi-
tions are one of the primary
causes of stress.
To determine this, four stu-
dents at a time were placed in a
tiny cubicle fa two- to three-hour
periods, where they were obser-
ved on camera. The 800 a so who
volunteered to' be subjected to
crowd stress were paid $3.00 per
hour fa their discomfort. While
men and women apparently suf-
fered the same degree of stress,
their reactions were sharply divi-
ded, Dr. Epstein revealed.
"The men appeared calm, as
if they were afraid to reveal their
discomfort the associate profes-
sa said. "The wanen subjects
did not complain but made
continual facial expressions to
each other, not only indicating
their pain, but their ocmmisera-
tion. The men looked straight
ahead, refusing to meet other's
eyes
Regardless of their outward
reactions, their inner tensions
were recaded by the use of a skin
oonducter, which measured their
psycho-psychological arousal.
Curiously, the results of the
experiment will be tawarded to
masstranspatatioi systems, who
will use the data to determine
seating configurations. But the
knowledge is not being applied in
the academic surroundings that
sponsaed the study.
Dr. Epstein is teaching a
course in basic psychology that
has been over-subscribed by 20
students. The classroom seats 80
and there are 100 who signed up
fa the oourse. It means, says Dr.
Epstein, that there will be
consistent class cutting and un-
necessary distraction.
"I'll be irritated watching
students scramble fa seats. This
has to distract me while I'm
lecturing Dr. Epstein contends.
Asa result of his study as well
as his crowded classroom, Dr.
Epstein intends to conduct his
own experiment next semester.
"I plan to teach the course in
two sections. One will be over-
crowded and one will be under-
crowded. In that way, we can
determine if there is a difference
in comprehension between the
groups
Dr. Epstein also conducted a
mini-study of damitay aowding
two years ago, when Rutgers
University was faced to house
three students in rooms designed
fa two.
"We found there was greater
stress among the women students
than the men simply because
the women were mae particular
about the way their rooms were
furnished and deoaated. As a
result, they spent mae time in
their quarters and had mae
oppatunity to get in each other's
way. The men students, on the
other hand, oouldn't care less
what their rooms looked like and
what a mess they left. Sinoe they
spent as little time in their rooms
as possible, there was less
likelihood of tension
Rutgers has since discon-
tinued its tripling policy.
In another stress experiment,
Dr. Epstein played tapes fa his
subjects that contained verbal
material set to background music.
The subjects were told to keep
their eyes closed while listening
to instructions directing them to
control their inhaling and ex-
haling. They were also told to
conjure up images in their mind
while the music soothed their
soul.
"It takes their minds off their
anxieties and has been helpful in
reducing fear of flying
Overaowded classrooms are
something else. Taped messages
and recaded music may not help.
But, says the psychologist, in-
aeased budgets will.

Sunday afternoon the East
Carolina School of Music presen-
ted Handel's "Messiah" befaea
near-capacity audience in Wright
Auditaium.
The Concert Choir, University
chaale, Wanen's Glee Club,
orchestra and student soloists
oombined under the direction of
Robert Hause to perfam two
hours of selected arias, recitatives
and chauses frart Handel's great
masterpiece.
The perfamance as a whole
was wonderfully professional.
Most remarkable were the
fourteen student soloists. Their
interpretations were well thought
out and sensitive, beautifully
setting off the technical virtuo-
sity of the solo passages.
Certain of Handel's arias are
incredibly difficult and would
offer a challenge to any profes-
sional perfamer, but these solo-
ists performed with a poise,
accuracy, intensity and musical
insight that would rival many
professionals.
The use of anamentatiai was
tasteful and appropriate, adding
depth and maturity to an already
excellent perfamance. Congratu-
lations to each of the soloists. I
was impressed!
The thirty-piece achestra did
a good job. There were intonation
problems, particularly in the
upper strings, and often the
strings were too heavy and too
faced fa the style. But except fa
a few times when the soloists
couldn't cut through, the aches-
tra did an adequate job.
The huge choir was well
controlled, with diction and preci-
sion impressive fa a group of
such large dimensions. The choir
managed a nice, light sound fa a
chaus such as "Fa unto us a
child is ban" and yet were full
and majestic fa "And the glay
of the Lad" and the "Hallelu-
jah" chaus.
A performance of "The
Messiah" is quite an undertaking
fa any group, professional a not.
But the hard wak and talent of all
those involved made fa a per-
famance that was mae than
adequate. It was exhilarating.
Handel's exalting music cap-
tured the wonder of Christmas-
not the emptiness and shallow-
ness of commercialism, but the
beauty and joy of the Messiah's
birth.

checkered with rejection and

sing, adapting and arranging
each part fa each player along

"It was all kind of fun to do

seemed so far removed from
what's happening in disco music
today Murphy related, adding
that he admired the use of
classical music by such contem-
porary artists as Deodato and
Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
"Kubrick's 'Clockwak

mine he also revealed, noting
that the central character of the
film was a Beethoven freak.

ECU'S wrestling team opened
their dual meet season last week
with three victories over Camp-
bell, Barber Scotia, and North
Carolina Central at Buies Creek
Wednesday before returning
home Friday to lose to the
Athletes in Action in an exhibition
match.
The Pirates whitewashed Bar-
ber Scotia 60-0 and NCCU 59-0
while beating Campbell 38-8
Wednesday The Athletes in
Action, a Campus Crusade fa
Christ group, defeated the Bucs
25-16 on Friday.
Against Barber Scotia. Pa
Osman (134). Harry Rumby (158).
and D.T. Joyner (Heavyweight)
won with pins over their oppo-
nents. Charlie McGimsey (118).
Wendell Hardy (126). Tim Gag-
han (142). Paul Thorp (150). Jay
Dever (177). and John Williams
(190) all won by forfeit. Phil
Mueller (167) won by default
when his opponent was injured in
the match.
The Pirates were almost as
successful against Central as
Thorp. Steve Goode (158), Muel-
ler. Williams, and Joyner all
pinned their rivals. McGimsey.
Hardy. Harry Martin (134). and
Frank Schaede (142) all were
victorious by forfeit Only Dever
was taken the distance in beating
his opponent by an 18-5 decision
The winning was a bit harder
against Campbell, a good small-
college team. Mueller, Mark
Peters (177), Barry Purser (190).
and John Williams(Heavyweight)
all won on pins. Hardy. Schaede,
and (150) won on decisions, while
McGimsey and Martin were
defeated and Kirk Tucker (158)
was tied by his opponent.
The AIA match was the
home-opener for the Pirates and
about 1,500 enthusiasts showed
up for the match. AIA took a
quick 6-0 lead as Hardy failed to
make weight at 118. His oppo-
nent, Mike Whitfield was 0-5 on
the year and Hardy was favored
to win. Had Hardy made weight
and won by a decision, the match
would have ended in a 19-19 tie
between the two teams. Head
coach John Wei born commented.
"It sure would have been nice
if Wendell could have made
weight. I'm sure he could have
beaten the guy and brought us a
tie
The Pirates took the lead in
the next two matches with Martin
beating Dave Redd in the 126
pound match 5-2 and Paul Osman
registering a superior decision
(10-2) over Gary Taylor at 134.
This gave the Pirates a 7-6 lead in
the match.

Crosby's big play

Assistant Sports Editor
Guard Louis Crosby's three
point play with 1 29 remaining
enabled East Carolina s Pirates to
overoome UNC-Wilmington,
56-54, Saturday night in Minges
Coliseum.
With ECU trailing 53-52,
Crosby hit a 20 foot jumper and
was fouled by the Seahawks'
Dave Wolff. Crosby hit the free
throw and the Pirates led 55-53.
In the last minute of play, a
tenacious Buc defense, Larry
Hunt's key defensive rebound,
and a Jim Ramsey foul shot with
five seconds left sealed ECU's
victory.
The only good thing about
this game is that it's over and it's
a win said ECU coach Dave
Pat ton. "It baffles me that we can
play as well as we did at
Maryland and then come back
here and play like a bunch of first
graders. I assume it's our in-
experience, a at least I hope it
IS
ECU led 32-23 at the half
despite shooting only 39 4 per
from the field.
The Pirates opened up a 13
point lead (38-25) with 18137 left
to play in the game.
Poor shooting and numerous
turnovers by ECU enabled
UNC-W to tie the score at 45 on
Ralph Peterson's jump shot with
6:23 left.
"This is something else I
don't understand Pattern said.
"At Maryland we turned the ball
over only nine times and tonight
we give it up 20 times. Also, we
are being out-shot at Minges. We
will simply have to execute better
than we did tonight
The Pirates shot 26.2 per cent
from the field in the second half
and 33.9 per cent for the game.
UNC-W took the lead. 47-46,
with 5:41 to go on a jumper by
Ricky McKoy.
Its lead increased to four
(52-48) with just 2:15 showing on
the clock as Delaney Jones hit a

UNC-W's Wolff went to the
foul line with a one and one
situation. Wolff missed his first
attempt and Hunt cleared the
boards with one of his 11
rebounds fa the night.
This set up the clutch three
point play by Crosby.
Fa the game, ECU shot 62.5
per cent (16 fa 26) from the foul
line which will hurt their previous
79.4 average percentage. The
Pirates out-rebounded UNC-W,
52-37.
The Bucs did play well on
defense throughout the game as
UNC-W had 18 turnovers and was
faced to take a maiaitv of its
shots from outside.

According to Patton, ECU
might have overlooked this game.
"It's a possibility that these

Trivia contest
The first ever Intramural Sports Trivia contest got underway
Monday with ten teams competing in the first-round eliminations.
Tonight at 5 p.m. the semifinals and finals will begin.
The Sports Trivia contest covers two areas; one concerns major
league baseball and the other deals with East Carolina athletics. Last
night's first round proved interesting and more of the same is expected
from the final four teams tonight.
This is a first-time event for the intramural department and
although the number of teams involved are fewer than were expected
to begin with, the teams involved were pretty well-prepared for the
questions asked.
Men's basketball play got underway last week and, despite a few
upsets, everything went pretty much as expected. The early season
chcMoe as the team to beat is the Mean Machine. The Mean Machine
rolled to an 89-19 win last week and seem on their way to a title in the
independent league.
In the fraternity league, where all the teams are grouped in one
division for the first time ever, the Kappa Alphas, Kappa Alpha Psi
and Kappa Sigmas all won to take the early-season lead. Among the
biggest upsets in the league were the Kappa Sigs upset over Tau
Kappa Epsilon and the upset of Lambda Chi Alpha by the Sig Eps.
Fraternity power Pi Kappa Phi was idle the first week but opens its
season tonight with a game against Phi Kappa Tau. The Pi Kapps are
the defending fraternity champions.
The club division finds not one, but two. teams from the Phi Epsilon
Kappa physical education fraternity unbeaten after the first week. Both
teams, the Dunkersand the Bucs, escaped with narrow victories in the
first week of play. Baptist Student Union is also one of the favorites in
the club division, as is the FCA team. FCA was impressive in a
hard-fought 40-39 win over Sports Machine.
The dormitory league always is the largest, with 56 teams this year.
and the competition is usually the most intense. Leading the way after
the first week of play are the Belk Nuttie Buddies, the Scott Cavaliers
and the Belk Bullets. Dorm play really gets underway tonight as every
team is on tap through Wednesday
Getting back to the men's independent league where the Mean
Machine is placed, other top teams will be last year s campus
champion the Herb Superbs, the Revised Figures, the Rockets and the
Tn G's. Of all the four divisions the independent division is probably
the toughest.
This season there will be three top ten men's rankings published.
Two will appear in thisoolumn and a third will appear in the Intramural
newsletter which comes out on Monday afternoons. The two in this
column will come from this writer and Marty Martinez, who is in
charge of the basketball intramural program. Martinez considers
himself an expert on ranking the teams as for myself, well I guess more
than I pick. Anyway we shall see which of us fairs the best. In addition,
tinez and myself will pick the teams in each division that we feel
have the best chance to make the all-campus championship. We will be
v another expert progosticator in Walt Estes and we will
inge these picks each week to bring them up-to-date.
The only hangup with Estes is that he plays for the Phi Epsilon
Kappa Dunkers. so if you see their name in the standings too often, you
know there is some pressure being applied Anyway, here are the first

In women's play 35 teams enter the first week of play. There are a
number of good teams in the four divisions, but three stand out as what
can be termed as really super teams from pre-season assessments.
These teams are Hypertension, Nock's Knockers and the Baptist
Student Union. One other team, the Delta Zetas in the sorority
division, can be considered a dark horse and should cop the fourth
playoff spot come February. The in-house favorite around Memorial
Gym comes down to a toss-up between the BSU team and
Hypertension.
Broom Ball will be offered as an intramural sport this winter. Fa
those unfamiliar with the game it is played with the same rules as
hockey but tennis shoes are used instead of skates and a broom and
rubber ball is used instead of hockey sticks and a puck. The games will
be played in the afternoon at the Twins Rink Recreation Center when
school resumes after break. Four men and four women will play on a
team at one time, but as many as 16 may be on a team's roster. This
competition falls under the co-rec program. Any team interested in
competing must turn in a roster by Thursday, December 16.
Oh by the way, insurance won't be provided for those who may

2-0 in league
Tankers drown ASU
By DAVID ROBEY
Staff Writer
ECU'S men's swim team put it
all together here at the Minges
Natatorium Saturday when they
beat Appalachian 83-24. East
Carolina now stands 8-0 overall
anc1 2-0 in the conference.
An interesting point to bring
out is ECU has never lost a dual
meet against a Southern Con-
ference opponent since being
eligible for the title in 1965-66.
The team has a perfect 24-0
record against Southern Con-
ference teams. Besides adding to
their record of wins, the team set
eight new meet records and John
Tudor set a new varsity mark.
ECU won both of the relays;
the 400 yard medley and the 400
yard freestyle. Members of the
400 yard medley were Bryan
Bolton, David Kirkman, who is
team captain. Keith Wade, and
Ronald Schnell. The 400 freestyle
relay team was composed of John
McCauley. Ted Nieman, Billy
Thane and John Tuda.
Doug Bnndley put five points
on the board when he won the
1000 yard freestyle. Bnndley was
assisted by Steve Ruedhnger.
who placed third in the event.
As well as swimming in the
400 yard freestyle relay Thane
also swam and won the 200 yard
freestyle event. Stewart Mann
snatched the number two spot in
that event.
John McCauley swam two
events also and won the 50 yard
freestyle and set a new meet
record in the event. Mike Coomes
backed McCauley by taking se-
cond.
John Tuda. who is expected to
have an excellent year, won the
200 yard individual medley and
set a new varsity reoad as he
clocked in 1.58.49. Joe Kushy
grabbed second.
In the 200 yard butterfly Keith
Wade and Mark Lovette placed
first and second, respectively.
Wade held the varsity record in
this event last year.
John Pero won the 100 yard
freestyle and Pierre Ouellet
placed second. ECU also won
another freestyle event when Ted
Nieman. a freshman from Winter
Park, Fla won the 500 yard
freestyle.
Dave Moodie of Canada won
the 200 yard backstroke and
Bryan Bolton swam well enough
to take second.
Dave Kirkman besides swim-
ming in the medley relay put five
points on the board when he won
the 200 yard breaststroke.
In diving, Stewart Mann won
on the one-meter board with
188.80 pants while rival Gilbert
had 184.20 pants. ASU's Gilbert
took first on the three-meter
board.
So the team is off to its usual
good start and is oompiling new
records all the time. The team's
next meet is on Jan. 13 when they
take on the University of Maine at
Minges Natataium.

Catamounts top Lady Pirates
ECU'S Lady Pirate basketball
team came from 17 points behind
in the second half of their game
Saturday against Western
Carolina, but a rally fell short in
the final minutes as the Cata-
mounts topped the Buoettes,
75-70, in a game played in
Greensboro.
The Lady Pirates oommitted
33 turnovers in the game to just
12 for the Lady Catamounts. This
prompted coach Catherine Bolton
to be concerned.
"Those turnovers definitely
cost us the game. It was not just
one person. The whole team had
trouble handling the ball
Debbie Freeman led the Lady
Pirates with 21 points, while
sophomore forward Rosie
Thompson added 20. Guard Gale
Kerbaugh was the only other
Bucette in double figures with 15.
"I thought Gale did an
excellent job scoring for us
Saturday Bolton continued. "I
hope we can expect 12 to 15
points a game from her
The Lady Pirates trailed 3&-27
at intermission and were being
out-rebounded badly by the taller
Cats. The Lady Cats held a 17-13
edge off the boards at the half,
but the Lady Pirates pulled 27 in
the second stanza to just 13 for
the Cats. Freeman pulled 14
rebounds to lead the Lady Pirates
while Thompson captured ten.
"We really worked hard on
the boards after the half Bolton
stated. "They were much taller
than we were, but we worked
hard in the second half. We just
ran out of time.
"I was extremely proud of the
girls' ooming back. We were
down by 17 with ten minutes to go
and pressed them all over the
court until we pulled the lead
down to five. But, weoould get no

hit four of nine shots from the
field for eight points. Bolton said
she thought McClellan did a

needs a little experience to im-

The Lady Pirates will have
their first Division I conference
game Saturday when they play
host to Appalachian in Minges at
5 p.m.
The Buoettes will also play in
the Christmas Classic at Chapel
Hill on Dec. 21, 22, and 23. The
Classic will include ECU, UNC-
Chapel Hill, Western Carolina,
Appalachian State, Winthrop
College (S.C.), Peace Junior
College, and Pfeiffer.
WRESTLING
(Continued From page 12)
After the first period, the
score was tied at four. Lamphere
started asserting his power in the
second stanza and took a 12-6
lead into the third and final
period. He then used a reversal
and a takedown to register a
superior decision over Thorp,
17-9.
The Bucs' Steve Goode then
decisioned Bill Gifford at 158 to
pull the Pirates to within three at
13-10.
Phil Mueller, ECU'S best
wrestler, then extended his re-
cord for the year to 12-0 with an
8-4 decision of Tom Keeley, who
had lost just once previously this
season.
The 177-pound match had to
be the best of the night. Olympic

gold medalist John Peterson
came into the match with a 5-0
record and was expected to pin
freshman Jay Dever quickly. But
Dever would have none of it. The
two men wrestled to a scoreless
tie in the first period. Every time
they would wrestle off the mat,
Dever would excitedly run back to
the middle of the circle for
another faceoff with his highly-
touted opponent. Peterson took
the position in the second period,
but oould not turn his young
opponent over for a pin. The score
remained 0-0 going into the third
and final stanza.
The crowd was into this
match, wildly cheering Dever's
every move. Peterson was on
bottom for the third period and
used his experience to escape in
just 11 seconds to take a 1-0 lead.
Seven seoonds later, the referee
awarded Peterson another point
when he said Dever was wrestling
close to the edge of the mat so as
not to be taken down. Dever, now
tiring some, was taken down with
233 left in the match. Peterson
received another point when the
referee called Dever fa stalling
with 1 36 left.
Peterson finally pinned Dever
with just 56 seoonds left in the
match. Wei born was praising
Dever's display of wrestling after
the match.
"Jay really took it to him out
there. He had little pressure on
him and just let himself go. He
gave it everything he had. He
wrestled on a lot of heart
tonight
John Williams defeated Doug
Klenovich at 190 by a 5-0 margin
to pull the Pirates to within three
at 19-16 going into the heavy-
weight bout. Carl Dambman
pinned D.T. Joyner in that bout to
provide the final margin.
"I was very proud of the way
our boys wrestled out there
tonight Wei born stated follow-
ing the match. "We oould have
tied it had Wendell made weight.
We' re very young but we showed
a lot of effort
Welborn cited Martin,
Osman, Gaghan, Goode, Mueller,
and Williams in addition to Dever
in the match.
The Pirates' next action will
be a holiday tournament, the
WilkesOpen, on Dec. 27-28 in
Wilkes-Barre, Pa.

Bruce Jenner: It was my destiny to win
Editor's note: Bruce Jenner,
gold medal winner in the decatht-
Ion at the 1976 Olympics in
Montreal, was in Charlotte re-
cently for a high school banquet.
Kip Sloan, an ECU student from
Charlotte, attended the event and
came back to FOUNTAINHEAD
with pictures and this feature on
� The World's Greatest Athlete
By KIP SLOAN
Special to Fountainhead
"It was my destiny to win
Thosp were the opening words of
Bruce Jenner, 1976 Olympic
decathlon gold medalist, as he
spoke to a capacity audience at
Ovens Auditorium for the WBTV
High School Convocations, an
annual event sponsored by a
Charlotte television station,
which brings varied celebrities in
each year to speak on their field of
interest to local high school
students.
Other speakers in the program
were U.S. Olympic track coach
Dr. Leroy Walker, former great
distance runner Jim Beatty, and
past decathloner Floyd Sim-
mons. After a brief introduction
by each speaker, Jenner took the
stage and received a warm
applause.
Jenner began his speech with
a brief explanation of the decath-
lon event and some of his own
personal experiences in competi-
tion.
"A lot of athletic events are
determined by luck and things
which we cannot control Jenner
stated. "Frank Shorter (second in
marathon) and Dave Roberts
(third in pole vault) were the best
in the world in their events at the
Olympics, yet didn't win because
of bad luck-rain.
"I thought that I could win if it
rained, but I knew would win if it
didn't, i felt lucky on the day of
my event and took advantage of
it
After his speech, Jenner
attended an informal press con-
ference where he spoke about a
book he is writing with John
Finch on the decathlon . The
tentative title is Challenge: The
Quest To Be The World's Great-
est Athlete.
The book begins six months
before the decathlon and recaps
Jenner's life up to the Olympics
and his victory in the decathlon .
"People tend to look at
athletes as some sort of heroes,
BRUCEJENNER
the last of the flag bearers of the
human race. They identify with us
and feel hope and security in
humanity. Athletics rise above
nationality or politics and should
be left out of the international
bickerings
Jenner is presently serving
with ABC Spats on a two-year
contract, along with numerous
appearances across the country.
"In the last four months, I have
been home two weeks he
continued.
When asked if he plans to stay
active in athletics, Jenner replied
an emphatic "no
"I set a goal for myself and
reached it (the gold medal) and
am very content with that. I am
very lucky that I can walk away

Track team impressive in N.C. State Open
By STEVE WHEELER
Sports Editor
East Carolina's indoor track
team continued their impressive
showings Saturday when they
dominated the N.C. State Open
Meet in Raleigh over 11 other
teams.
"We are really doing good so
far assistant coach Curtis Frye
said after the meet. "We are
dominating these other schools. If
they had scored this meet we
would have won by an outrageous
total.
"The guys were really loose
for this meet he added. "There
were some kids running age-
group events on the track before
the meet and a little girl was
out-running the boys in her race
Our team was leading the cheer-
ing for the girl. They were loose
The team was loose as the
meet started also as they took
'our first places and took as many
as four sports in some events
against N.C. State, Georgia Tech,
Furman, South Carolina, Duke,
Virginia State, Pembroke State,
Appalachian State, Western
Carolina, North Carolina Central,
and St. Augustine.
The mile relay was the
epitome of the Pirates' domi-
nation as they put three teams on
the track and took first, third and
fifth places. ECU'S 'B' team of
Ben Dunkenfield, Valdez Chavis,
James Freeman, and Jay Pirdy
won the race with a time of
331.3. The Pirates' A' team took
third in 332.5 while the'C squad
was fifth in 333.5.
The Pirates took four of the
five places in the 60 yard dash.
Freshman Otis Melvin won with a
time of 6.2 while Larry Austin
took second, also in 6.2. Fresh-
man Jimmy Rankins took fourth
in 6.3 while Donnie Mack placed
fifth in the same time.
Another freshman, Billy
Etcinson, won the long jump with
a leap of 23-2 34, while Mike
Hodge was second just a quarter
inch behind. Herman Mdntyre
took fifth position with a jump of
22-2.
Marvin Rankins oontinued'his
winning ways in the 60 yard high
hurdles as he took the race in 7.2.
Rankins has run the race five
times this winter and has yet to
run worse than 7.3.
In the triple jump. Mdntyre
had his career best leap in
finishing third. His jump of 49-6
12 was two inches better than he
did last year. George Jackson
placed fourth in the event in 47-9,
while Hodge finished fifth in 47-7.
In the other events, Charlie
Moss took third in the 440 (52.2),
Jim Willett and Jim Green placed
fourth and fifth, respectively, in
the 880 with times of 2.C1 and
2:02. James Freeman, Valdez
Chavis, and Ben Dunkenfield took
third, fourth and fifth in the 600.
"We've been waking really
hard and I hope the good times
will continue Frye went on.
"We certainly need to keep it
up
FIELDS SIGN WITH ECU
In other developments over
the weekend, East Carolina an-
nounced the signing of high
school all-America sprinter
William Fields from nearby New
Bern.
Fields, a senior at New Bern
High School, was one of the top
performers at the state track meet
last year in Raleigh. He has
registered times of 9.4 in the 100
yard dash, 21.1 in the 220 yard
dash, and 47.9 in the 440.
Fields has been recruited
extensively by all the top track
schools in the nation: Arizona,
Arizona St Tennessee, Clemson,
