As a result of supply store expansion
ECU academic scholarships discontinued
By LOUIS TA YLOR
Staff Writer
The ECU Academic Scholar-
ships have been discontinued,
apparently as a result of the
recent expansion of the ECU
student supply store, according to
Robert M. Boudreaux, financial
aid officer.
Funds normally earmarked for
these scholarships will be used to
help pay back a $400,000 loan
secured to finance the store's
expansion, according to C.G.
Moore, vice-chancellor for busi-
ness affairs.
These four-year, $1,000 per
year scholarships have been
given annually to 12 to 15 high
school graduates who have de-
monstrated exceptional scholastic
abilities.
Although the scholarships will
be discontinued beginning Fall
semester, 1977, past recipients
will not be affected, Boudreaux
added.
"These recipients will be
automatically continued provided
their academic performances do
not fall below the accepted
level said Boudreaux.
"We feel this (cutback) is
tiiporary said Boudreaux.
"When a business expands its
facilities, you expect its profits
will also grow
N.C. law requires that all
student supply store profits above
operating costs go to scholar-
ships, according to Moore.
"In the past few years, this
total has been about $60,000
said Boudreaux. "For 1977-78
we're basing out projections on
$35,000 to $40,000.
National Merit Scholarships
and resources scholarships, also
supported by the unrestricted
funds will not be affected,
according to Boudreaux
"In fact, we feel that the
Merit scholarships will be up-
graded by the discontinuance of
the academic scholarships
added Boudreaux.
The Merit Scholarships are
$500 to $1500 awards given for
academic excellence, while the
resources scholarships are given
to students in emergency situa-
tions, like student teaching, ac-
cording to Boudreaux. The latter
awards are usually about $50.
Boudreaux said the Student
Scholarship, Fellowship, and Fi-
nancial Aid Committee, reevalu-
ates the financial aid situation
annually. He added that rein-
statement wasa strong possibility
if the situation improved.
Supply store manager Joe
Clark attributed the expansion to
increased demand of certain
school supplies, a growing need
for warehouse space, and a need
for more shelf space.
"The art supplies department
will be increased three times, and
the trade book section will also be
greatly increased said Clark.
"The demand in these areas is
growing too fast to keep the
shelves stocked, and we just do
not have the warehouse space to
store these supplies.
"We moved into the present
facility in 1965 said Clark.
The plans were drawn up in
1961. Since that time, enrollment
and demand have grown tremen-
dously
Clark said the supply store
never sold more than half the
books on the shelves at the
beginning of a term and that
warehouse space was also needed
needed for these books.
Since the supply store must
operate self-sufficiently, the cut-
backs in the scholarships were
necessary to fund the expansion,
Clark said.
"We don't get a penny from
th state of North Carolina fa-
salaries, utilities, equipment, or
expansion said Clark.
Besides the rent-free build-
ing, the store is completely free
from state funding, according to
Moore.
According to Clark, the ex-
pansion will increase the sales
area to about 100,000 square feet,
about a 90 per cent increase.
In addition, there will now be
about 3,300 square feet of ware-
house space.
WECU faces fall
semester problems
By MARGARET PHOENIX
Staff Writer
WECU. East Carolina Univer-
sity' s closed-circuit radio station,
may not be broadcasting next
ar unless new transmitters are
bought, according to the station's
general manager, John Deavor.
Chuck Lee. WECU's student
;ineer, agrees that there is a
need for new transmitters, but
feels the old ones could suffice
"It wouldn't be practical to
?p the old transmitters work-
said Lee.
The money spent on repairs,
and aprts which come from Pen-
nsylvania and equipment for
repairs on the old transmitters
could be used towards the high
cost of the new ones Lee said.
Eighteen transmitters are
used to broadcast to 15 buildings
on campus, including Mendenhall
Student Center, but only 11 out of
those 15 are operable at this time,
according to Le
These transmitters have
blown out two or three times
said Lee. " They are the old tube-
type, which are not even made
anymore, and they were put in by
people who did not make them
Deavor cited lack of money as
biggest problem in purchas-
ing the new transmitters.
"Fifteen transmitters, at $750
a piece, will cost about $11,000
Deavor said.

Thonen case proves First Amendment
freedoms still exist for college students
THONEN
By DENNIS LEONARD
Advertising Manager
Free speech has been protec-
ted in the United States for over
200 years.
But in 1971, an ECU student
was denied his First Amendment
free speech rights.
Robert Thonen, FOUNTAIN-
HEAD editor in 1970-71, was
expelled from ECU for publishing
a letter-to-the-editor which con-
tained an expletive directed at
Chancellor Leo W. Jenkins on the
visitation policy.
According to Thonen, tit;
printed the letter by approval
from the Publications Board.
Thonen was taken before the
Honor Council and charged with
"conduct unbecoming of a stu-
dent
The Honor Council expelled
Thonen upon his conviction.
"That year we felt that there
should be a provision for the
publication of uncensored opin-
ions said Thonen. "The Publi-
cations Board approved this on
the basis that we didn't violate
any local, state, or federal laws
According to Thonen, a clash
occurred between the administra-
tion and FOUNTAINHEAD's
editorial policy.
We opposed the administra-
tion on several things that year
said Thonen. "We were concern-
ed with the accreditation of
Joyner Library, felt that more
academic areas needed attending
to, and opposed Jenkins' plans to
run for governor.
"I understood the position of
the administration said Thonen.
"They had the image of the
school to keep in mind and didn't
need any more problems
"But if a college press can't
freely examine contemporary and
controversial questions he
added, "then where may this be
done?
Thonen sued Jenkins for
violating his First Amendment
free speech rights.
Thonen maintained in the law
suit that FOUNTAINHEAD was
protected by the First Amend-
ment, even though it was a
college publication.
According to Dr. Tinsley E.
Yarbrough, political science pro-
fessor, the courts have held that if
a school chooses to operate a
newspaper, the administration
cannot unreasonably interfere
with the editorial decision of the
paper.
"In Papish vs. Board of
Curators (1973) the Supreme
Court ordered the reinstatement
of a student who was suspended
for campus distribution of a
newspaper which contained a
political cartoon of policemen
raping the Statue of Liberty and
Goddess of Justice said Yar-
brough.
According to Yarbrough, the
Supreme Court has maintained
that studentsare protected by the
First Amendment.

Yarbrough cited Dickey vs.

area.
Jenkins appealed the case to
the Fourth Circuit Court of
Appeals. The Fourth Circuit
reaffirmed the lower court's

reinstatement.
Today Jenkins feels the courts

ted
To FOUNTAINHEAD:
Concerning the editorial,
"Lost Constituency I only agree
with Mr. Elliott in that there has
to be a better method under
which the constituency of the
legislature can be determined.
Representation on the basis of
departments and schools seems
reasonable. It has advantages
over the present system. If we do
reconstruct the system, it would
be wise to consider all possible
flaws or objections in a new
system. Encouragement of stu-
dent input would mean more
ideas and fresh criticisms. This
lessens the chance that a bad
system will be replaced with a
worse one.
The screenings for legislators
could be eliminated if a system
could be worked out where fall
elections would include an alter-
nate legislator (seoond highest
number of votes) in case the first
legislator became unable to
serve.
Those concerned might also
consider the district system which
I found, after a little research, is
used successfully at Chapel Hill.
ECU students may find a few ideas
that can be drawn from this
system and it is sure to widen our
range of ideas.
Concerning the "reasoning"
for reconstruction in the editorial,
I thought it was contradictory.
The legislators were trying to
represent the students. By up-
holding the recall petition they
were doing exactly as the stu-
dents wanted or the students
would not have petitioned for

such an action. If you do not
believe that 15 percent of the
student body is truly representa-
tive in such a case, take it up with
the SGA Constitution and spend
your efforts in a revision of the
Article of Recall.
It was also stated that legis-
lators "weed out" through
screening those who do not share
their established opinion. If you
believe this to be their intent, I
suggest that you have fallen
victim to "McCarthyism (Major
symptom: witch hunting.)
The majority of legislators try
to do their job, but they can
become lazy or careless (a very
human characteristic and not at
all related to witches or demons).
Under a better system of elections
which would bring students and
legislators closer together, our
officials can be kept on their toes.
E. Marena Wright
J.P. Stevens Textile Co. defended
To FOUNTAINHEAD:
Only one-fifth of the labor
foroe in the U.S. is organized into
unions. At J.P. Stevens, employ-
ees have rejected the TWUA in 11
of 12 elections held, preferring to
deal with the management direct-
ly because Union presenoe has
historically led to strife and dis-
cord over issues that can be set-
tled amicably when the relation-
ship is based on mutual respect.
The TWUA began a massive
campaign in 1963 as part of an
AFL-CIO drive to organize the
south. Its prime target has been
J.P. Stevens. Today, 14 years
later-after 40 organizing cam-
paigns and 15 requests for
secret-ballot electionsthe Union
has won only one Stevens elec-
tion, and that by a narrow
margin. If the Union is suppos-
edly so beneficial for workers,
why does it have such a record of
defeat? The Union's denuncia-
tions of Stevens are obvious
efforts to make this Company the
whipping boy for its general
failures, throughout the south.
Stevens has been seeking a
oontract covering plants in Roa-
noke Rapids, N.C where the
single victory occurred, with
union representatives. The Com-
pany has made repeated propo-
sals and oounter-proposals in the
negotiations, but to no avail.
The Union's charge that the
company has failed to bargain
fairly should be judged in the
context of its own bargaining
history: there have been 15 Labor
Board decisions against Stevens,
3 of which were overturned by the
court. On the other hand, there
have been at least 18 Labor Board
decisions against the Union.
By calling a boyoott of Ste-
vens' products, the Union leaders
are living up to what the oompany
has, through the years, told its
employees about them. They are
specifically proving that they will
readily sacrifice the interst of the
employees-and of anybody else
who may be affected-in order to
increase their own power.
Some studies blame low
wages on the lack of unionization
in some states. However, govern-
ment statistics show that indus-
tries with high degrees of union-
ization do not necessarily pay top
wages, nor does a low rate of
unionization necessarily mean
low wages.
In each of the last 10 years,
wages at Stevens have increased
an average of 7. A representa-
tive Stevens production employee
earns $3.98 an hour, with Com-
pany funded fringe benefits that
can add another 25 to waqes.
Stevens' fringe benefits consti-
tute a comprehensive package
covering medical and life insur-
ance, pension plan, holidays,
tuition assistance, and time off for
personal needs such as family
funerals and jury duty. Stevens
Pension Plan is not only one of the
best in textiles, but competitive
with all Southern industry, as is
its group insurance package.
Stevens recognizes without
qualification that employees have
the undeniable right to be repre-
sented by a union. However, the
National Labor Relations Act
specifically states that employees
have as much right to oppose a
union as they have to join one,
and that likewise, the employer
has the right to express to
employees his opposition to the
unionization of employees and his
reasons for such opposition. Ever
since the Union's victory at
Roanoke Rapids, employee disen-
chantment has steadily mounted
toward it.

To FOUNTAINHEAD:
I am writing you due to an
incident that occurred Monday
night. Pranks are pranks, but
destroying federal property is
another incident. On Monday
night, reported around 3O0 a.m
the Alpha Phi house was visited
by some guys, whether they were
fraternity guys or independents is
unknown. On Tuesday morning I
noticed that our mailbox's side
steel bolt had been jimmied off,
probably by a crowbar, and the
red flag was gone. Admittedly,
this was not a tragic theft, but the
tampering with the United States
mail is a felony and it does cause
inconvenience for the house as
well as the mailman. Pranksters
should think twice before pulling
such stupid, childish stunts. No
one thinks they are funny - only
terribly immature. Immaturity
seems to be evident in many
various groups of guys at ECU
because many incidents have
occurred at our house which were
terribly stupid and some quite
devastating to us. Please think
through these "fun" outings
before doing damage to one's
property. Your outings are not
"fun" to us.

Soccer Captain clarifies position
17 May 1977 FOUNTAINHEAD
ToFOUNTAINHEAD:
There seems to be a few
misconceptions about what has or
has not been said regarding the
cancellation of the soccer pro-
gram. In last Thursday's edition,
Vicky Loose stated her opinion on
the matter. On the whole, the
article was well conceived but she
misses on a few points.
Fa one, I realize that Title IX
does not mention anywhere that
there has to be an equal number
of men's and women's sports. I
don't know which articles Miss
Loose has read but all the articles
I've read, including the one she
mentioned in the News and
Observer, do not insinuate an
equal number of teams. This
aspect, I realize, has no bearing
regarding Title IX. The equal
number of teams is the Athletic
Advisory Councirs choice.
For another, she mentioned
the point of equal funding. I also
realize that there can not be equal
funding of men's and women's
sports due to the nature of major
college football and basketball.
These sports are inherently more
expensive arid they also generate
most of the revenue for athletics.
Granted, at first, that was one
of the reasons given for the
cancellation of soccer. That was,
initially, one of the reasons given
to me by the administration. But
as I probed a little deeper, I found
this was not really the case. The
advisory council was concerned
about fielding a quality team with
the money we were receiving.
They obviously felt that we
Peace, adventure found in Christ
ToFOUNTAINHEAD:
I am not a wayward youth as
was indicated by the title given to
Mark Franke's letter to the
FOUNTAINHEAD a few weeks
ago but I too have found that
Jesus Christ makes the differ-
ence. Snce I was old enough to
crawl my parents made sure that
the church was a part of my life
and this is not uncommon fa
many of the students here at ECU
considering that we live in the so
called Bible Belt. Although I grew
up in the church and tried to live a
"good Christian life" I never
really understood what it meant
to be a Christian. My definition of
a Christian was someone who
obeyed the 10 commandments,
went to church every Sunday and
tried to be a basically good
person. It was not until later that
someone explained to me that the
wad Christian means "Christ in
one" and you become a Christian
by simply asking Christ to come
in your heart by faith.
One day two guys came by
my room and shared with me how
I oould have a pasonal relation-
ship with Jesus. I was not the
most religious guy on campus but
I had seen how much they
enjoyed living and I knew that
this was something I wanted.
They explained to me that
Christianity is not a religion but a
relationship with Christ. This

seemed a little different to me at
the time but ova the past 3 years
as I have developed my relation-
ship with Christ I have seen my
life change into a peaceful but
exciting adventure. Randy Creech
couldn't field a respectable team
with only $4,400 as our budget.
But I feel the Advisay Council is
wrong in their assumption.
Miss Loose also stated that
thae should be equal opportunity
fa both sexes to compete. If the
wanen canplain they don't have
an opportunity to play, look at
what happened with regard to
women's golf. The opportunity
was given but it was dropped due
to lack of interest on the part of
the women.
Anotha point should be men-
tioned. At no time has the aocoer
team taken the positon of blaming
football. All we want is fa the
Board of Trustees to reinstate the
program; not to cast blame.
Don't get me wrong, I am all
fa wanen's athletics, but na at
the sake of canceling an entire
program. We are all waking
toward the same goal; we just
want to participate in our respec-
tive sports. Surely this is possible
at a school of this size.

Says more regular gas than ever before
Local Shell manager shuns shortage fear
By CINDY BROOME
Assistant News Editor
There is no shortage of
automobile gasoline, aooording to
John Corso, manager of Pitt Plaza
Shell service station on the 264
by-pass.
"You can get all the gas you
want said Corso.
Corso said there may be a
shortage of unleaded gas at some
stations, but there is more regular
gas now than at any time in
history.
Corso cited an article in a
trade magazine which states that
there are 20 million more barrels
of gas than a year ago.
Each barrel contains 42 gal-
lons of gas.
"As far as automobile gas, I
don't see a shortage said
Corso.
"At least, we don't at Shell.

"We're not having any prob-
lems getting gas from terminals.

Mervin Taylor, manager of a

"If they limit us to a certain

Taylor.

have told him there may be a

Smith.
Corso said the so-called gas
shortage may really mean a
shortage of oil and natural gas for
home heating, but he admitted
that he is unfamiliar with the
facts.
Smith said most people who
use gas for home heating will
probably cut back due to high

Child abuse, neglect do exist in Pitt County
By REBECCA BUFFALOE "A lot Of DarentS Who abuse or is a last resort " "The nroiin mnsists of mem- From Julv 1. 1975. to June 30
By REBECCA BUFFALOE
Staff Writer
Child abuse and neglect do
exist in Pitt County, according to
Pat Keel, a Protective Services
worker for the Pitt County
Department of Social Services.
"We have more cases of
neglect right now Keel said.
Although many persons feel
that abuse and neglect are
physical, other forms, such as
verbal abuse, emotional abuse,
and emotional neglect, are equal-
ly damaging.
When child abuse or neglect
exists within a family, the entire
family suffers, Keel said.
Help can be found for the
child abuser and his family
through the Protective Services of
the County Department of Social
Services.
Other services vary from
county to county. One such
service is Parents Anonymous.
"There is no Parents Anony-
mous group for Pitt County as of
right now, but work toward
organization of one is being
done Keel stated. "Any such
resource is helpful in abuse and
neglect cases
How can a person tell whether
a child has been abused or
neglected?
If a child is under 18, and has
been beaten, burned, sexually
molested, or injured in other
ways, he has probably been
abused.
Further, if a child has been
abandoned, left alone without
adult supervision, or rejected, he
has probably been neglected.
According to Keel, there is a
law against leaving a child under
eight years old in an enclosure
without adult supervision.
"This law is in case of fire
Keel said.
When a person believes that a
child has been abused or neglect-
ed, he should contact the county
department of social services.
The informer should give the
child's name and address, the
parent's or guardian's name and
address, the child's age, what
happened to the child, as well as
his own name, address, and
telephone number.
"In 1971, the North Carolina
General Assembly enacted the
Child Abuse Reporting Law
Keel stated. "A professional
should report suspected child
abuse. A non-professional must
report child abuse when he has
actual knowledge of the situa-
tion
This law protects informers
who act in good faith, those who
reported to help, not hurt,
someone.
"Many times, parents who
are going through divorce pro-
ceedings and want to have
custody of the children accuse
each other of abuse and neglect
Keel said. "There may not beany
actual abuse or neglect, just hard
feelings on the part of the
parents
Some causes of child abuse
and neglect stem from parents
who might have personal pro-
blems, lack enough money for
food and medical care, or are
unemployed.
"A lot of parents who abuse or
neglect their children are under a
lot of stress Keel explained.
"In their own way, they are
asking for help
Aocording to Keel, parents
many times do not understand
child care.
"These parents may not real-
ize they are neglecting their
children Keel said. "A local
homemaker can be called in to
help the parents learn proper
parental skills
If Protective Services cannot
help a parent who abuses or
neglects his children, court action
may be taken to remove the
children from the home.
The Department of Social
Services then has responsibility
for the children's supervision.
"Each situation is different
Keel stated. "Removing the
children from their natural home
is a last resort.
When the children are
separated from their parents,
they are placed in a foster home.
Foster homes are licensed by
the State Department of Human
Resources.
Length of stay for a child in
foster care is difficult to predict.
The Department of Social Ser-
vices seeks to establish a perma-
nent home for each child.
"There has been a growing
emphasis on understanding child
abuse and neglect Keel said.
"This emphasis has made people
more aware of how to detect and
treat such cases
March was designated as
Child Abuse and Neglect Month
in North Carolina.
A public awareness campaign,
known as SCANPAC, has been
formed to educate the public on
child abuse and neglect.
"The group oonsists of mem-
bers from the local Mental Health
Department, doctors, teachers,
and laymen Keel noted. "Since
they operate from a zero budget
base, the oommunity must be-
come involved
From July 1,1975, to June 30,
1976, 1,472 cases of child abuse
had been confirmed by county
departments in North Carolina.
A total of 2,404 neglect cases
had been confirmed in that same
period

Conservation in Alaska
top priority for Sierras
By JACK LAIL
Staff Writer
The local chapter of the Sierra
Club presented a program,
"Alaska: The Time Is Now
during their regular meeting
Monday, May 9.
A film, "Alaska: Land in the
Balance explained some of the
conservation problems in the
state and the Sierra Club's
proposals to perserve approxi-
mately 39 per cent of the state.
Hersh McNail, a Sierra Club
member, explained the problems
and proposals and answered
questions.
The Alaskan issue is the
Sierra Club's highest priority this
year.
Rep. Mo Udall, chairman of
the House Interior Committee,
has introduced legislation favored
by a number of conservation
groups collectively known as the
Alaska Coalition, which includes
the Sierra Club, according to
McNail.
The legislation would protect
whole, relatively undisturbed,
ecosystems, according to McNail.
Preservation is needed to
protect these areas from rapidly
increasing commercial develop-
ment, according to McNail.
The Udall bill would oonserve
145 million acres. Another bill is
expected to be introduced by the
Department of Interior in the fall
which would set aside only 83
million acres.
"Our organization's purpose
is to support conservation and
environmental issues said Dr.
Earl Trevathan, chairman of the,
local Cypress Group of the Sierra
Club. "And to support activities

that enjoy the wildness of the
out-of-doors in areas of environ-
mental beauty and value .
The Club has a two-prong
thrust;one, in the area of
conservation and the other in
outings, according to Dr. Treva-
than.
"Our own area of interest is
the fragile ooastline and water-
ways that are embraced in the
Coastal Area Management Act
(CAMA) said Dr. Trevathan.
"We are interested in perserving
the law and establish Areas of
Environmental Concern (AEC)
A bill to repeal CAMA has
been introduced in the N.C.
General Assembly. CAMA em-
braces the 20 counties in the
coastal area.
According to CAMA, AEC's
are ooastal areas of more than
local significance where uncon-
trolled or incompatible develop-
ment could result in major or
irreversible damage.
Examples of AEC's proposed
by the N.C. Coastal Resources
Commission include estuaries,
swamplands, ocean beaches,
frontal dunes, water sheds, and
areas that sustain remnant spe-
cies, a unique geologic forma-
tions.
Hearings for designation of
AEC's are being held in each of
the 20 counties through May 18.
"It's more than a matter of
land use and management, but
one of preservation said Dr.
Trevathan. "Eastern N.C. is
richly blessed with opportunities
for outdoor recreation
"There are a number of
relatively primitive waterways
that have not been totally moles-
ted or destroyed by man
The Cypress Group is also
concerned with phosphate min-
ing, Cape Lookout National Sea-
shore, creation of Pooosin Wil-
derness in the Croatan National
Park, pesticide use, and bottle
bills, according to Dr. Trevathan.
"The chapter has an active
lobbyist in Raleigh on issues of
conservation interest said Dr.
Trevathan.
The group has organized
outings at least every other week
during the year and anyone can
participate, according to Dr.
Trevathan.
The Cypress Group has ap-
proximately 150 members and
embraces 25 counties northeast of
Jacksonville, N.C.
Anyone interested in any
Cypress Group activities or mem-
bership can contact Mrs. Ruth
Trevathan, 752-3365.
dogging -a tradition
Clogging is an old danoe form
derived from native dances of the
Scottish, Irish, and English.
"In thisoountry people would
get together to play music and
others would dance to it said
tne long brown-haired, blue-
jeaned girl.
'The rise and success of
bluegrass festivals have made
this traditionally Southern Af

out the nation.
The 20 member Green Grass

style of clogging as far away as
Maine. They have attended the
Philadelphia Folk Festival and the
National Folk Festival in Wash-
ington, D.C.
The group travels to a festival

end of the summer.
Fa the past three years the
cloggers have traveled in a

Marquee

Grand finale
Cinema is both the easiest and the hardest form of the performing
arts. It isthe easiest because there is no limit to the effects that can be
obtained when one is able to stop, dl der and create to fit the need. It
has the greatest potential for revisio and there is not a sense of the
necessary metamorphosis a film goet hrouqh before completion. It is
this same colossal ability that makes it he most demanding of the arts.
With all of the freedom of sense that the director is allowed, if there is
anything less than a perfect creative interpretation of his intent, the
movie is a failure. There is no excuse, as there is in the continually
shifting dynamics of theatre.
If this insistence upon excellence seems harsh it may well be. There
isa great deal of work that goes into the cheapest "B" flick, and often
a sincerity of positive creation. There is a difference, however, between
intelligent creative suspension of reality and mere entertainment.
Effecting that difference is the essence of cinema.
That was the lead of the first Marquee column of the year. I still feel
it isessentiallyoorrect, but I would like to add one less poetic, but more
direct line to its content. To aspire to less, is to be a whore, and to
accept less is to pay her.
Films are more than mirror reflections of experience: more than
mere spectacle and surprise. Films can discover and display the
intimacies of character of our predicament.
We are the smartest beast on this planet, and we have nothing to
believe in.
This reviewer refuses to admit that belief is necessary for effort and
achievement. One finds a vehicle for their artistic energies beyond the
necessary bureaucratic structure. If one chooses films, one must
aspire; if one chooses criticism, one must expect.
Criticism is the scab on the ass of great art. True and sincere
creation needs no applause or assurances. It assimilates beauty of a
similar caliber and stimulates imitation. To this imitation, criticism is
the only sounding board. Criticism informs the imitator that he is not
fooling the people he needs to deceive.
Criticism is the necessary floodgate fa rank commercialism and
egotism in art. There is a difference between what needs to be said,
(drawn, filmed, written) and what the artist needs to do. That is the
essence of inspiration.
Films and drama are far nrare impatant than the actas and
directas involved. They have inoaporated themselves into the walds
where artists like Ibsen, Miller and Bergman have dedicated their
lives. When treated as a mere business, inspiration becomes
monotony, and aeation degenerates into imitation. Enta the aitic.
This isthe last Marquee column. There are many people to thank,
things to say and take back, feelings to be repaired. I have na been a
liaison of good will between the Drama department, theatres, and
FOUNTAINHEAD. Fa them, I have no explanations a rationale,
merely this stay.
When Winston Churchill was prime Minister, he was attending a

down again in Alexandria, Va. So
we all ate breakfast at my mom's
house
Luckily for the cloggers, they
don't plan to use the bus this year
because of its unreliability.
They are selling bumper
stickers for 75 cents apiece to
raise money for a new bus.
The retirement of 'Skillet'
probably won't keep unusual
things from happening to them on
their travels.
Once in New Bern, N.C. the
stage collapsed while they were
dancing, according to Brian
DeMarcus, who is the tall, long
blond-haired leader of the
cloggers.
"One year at the Fiddlers
Convention, I got one of my taps
caught between the planks of the
stage said DeMarcus, who is
also the defending oollard eating
champion of the Ayden (N.C.)
Collard Festival. He gulped down
five pounds of oollards in 30
minutes.
The cloggers practice once a
week trying to work up new
routines. The women members
make the long dresses they wear
on stage. The costumes are
similar but each girl picks out
her own material.
The men buy western style
shirts and the women sew on
patches. Boots, bandanas, oow-
boy hats, and taps oomplete their
outfits.
When they're not clogging, the
cloggers, most of whom were
ECU students at one time, work
at diverse professions.
"Several are teachers, one is
an alcoholic rehabilitation
oounselor, and we have a Pitt
County VD inspector, a carpenter
and some students Jordan said.
The Green Grass Cloggers
revolutionized clogging in some
ways. They innovated kicks and
have a more casual dress than

where most of the clogging
groups are from, according to
Jordan.
"Clogging, in our interpreta-
tion, incorporates round dancing
and western square dancing with
our own steps said DeMar-
cus.
Two widely known steps are
the double shuffle and the single
shuffle. Each group has their own
repertoire. The Green Grass
Cloggers name steps after the
member who made it up, such as,
Erol'sstep, Karen's kick, and the
Lone Ranger.
The Green Grass Cloggers
were formed in 1971 when a few
friends went to Harper Van Hoy's
Autumn Squareup at Fiddlers
Grove, N.C, a square dance and
clogging competition. They got
some people to show them some
basic steps there.
When they returned to ECU,
one of them, Dudley Culp,
wanted to start a group. By word
of mouth they got enough people
interested in forming a group.
They got a local resident, Betty
Casey, who had been a pro-
fessional square dance caller in
Texas, to show them some square
dance steps.

New record prices on upswing
By ANNE HOGGE
Sports Editor
Over the past few months
there has been a price increase on
a select group of albums.
This group now oosts $7.96
per album, at retail price, a one
dollar or more increase over most
album prices.
There are various reasons
given as to the increase. Rolling
Stone cites some of them as
increased shipping and distribu-
tion oosts, the rising costs of
petroleum-related raw materials,
passing artists' contract costs on
to the customer, and retailer
greed.
"The increase was made by
the record companies in order to
keep up with rising costs. I
personally think that another
reason may be related to the
Carter administration. There has
been talk of a price freeze, so the
record companies wanted to
make one last increase before it
was enacted aocording to Tom
Perryman, manager of .Apple
record shop.
"But so far the increase has
only been on albums by proven
artists, artists which the record
companies know will sell said
Perryman. "The increase is now
in the experimental stage. Every-
one will eventually test a top
artist at $7 98
Jerry Young of Record Bar
agrees. "The companies know
that they won't lose money
because they're dealing with their
big names. The whole thing is
called a 'selective price in-
crease said Young.
The increase began about four
months ago with Columbia's
release of "A Star Is Born the
movie's soundtrack.
The next $7.98 list album
released was by WEA, Wueen's

Albums no bargain for modern music lovers
Continued from pg. 10
man said the increase hurt the
album's sales and that the group
didn't sell as well as they
normally do.
Queen's guitarist Brian May
said in Rolling Stone, "As we
understand the price change, it's
part of an overall program to level
off prices of records, tapes, and
eight tracks. We're just upset
that we've been used as the
guinea pigs
The album tape ratio is ano-
ther given reason for the in-
crease.
"Companies have always
wanted to equalize album and
tape prices. We sell more eight
tracks than cassettes because
most cassette buyers record their
own, and don't buy the pre-
recorded tapes said Young.
Since the increase, Perryman
has seen eight track sales drop
and cassette sales rise.
"More customers are now
recording their own said Perry-
man. "There's also been an
increase in blank tape sales, both
cassette and eight track. But as
far as trying to equalize sales, I
personally would rather see tape
prices drop than album prices
rise
Even if tape and album prices
are eventually equalized, neither
Young nor Perryman think that
tape sales will overtake album
sales.
"I think there may be a rise
in recorder sales, if not in tapes
themselves said Perryman.
"Two ore three people may pool
their money together, buy an
album, and then each record it
The general price rise for
albums will probably affect all
types of music, mainly rock.
"The increase will affect all
types of music. Flock albums are
already on the way up, and
country, classical, and sound-
tracks will soon follow accord-
ing to Perryman.
Both Perryman and Young
Blow
dealt
OSHA
(LNS)-A three-judge federal
court in Boise, Idaho, delivered a
critical blow recently to the
federal Occupational Safety and
Health Act (OSHA) by declaring a
key enforcement provision of the
Act unconstitutional.
The oourt ruled that OSHA
safety inspections of workplaces
without a search warrant based
on probable cause constitute a
violation of the Fourth Amend-
ment.
The ruling in the case,
brought by a contractor in
Pocatello, Idaho, is one of the first
constitutional challenges to
OSHA that has been upheld in the
lower oourts and would appear to
bar all inspections under the Act.
OSHA has obtained a temporary
order from Supreme Court Justice
William Rehnquist allowing con-
tinued inspections pending a
direct appeal to the U.S. Supreme
said that the increase has not
noticeably affected sales. But
according to Perryman, the public
is now becoming more selective
about what they buy.
"There will also be less
experimentation of artists by the
puL.c as long as prices are
high said Young.
Both stores place new albums
on sale within a few weeks of their
release in order to offset the
price.
Since Apple, formerly Rock
N' Soul, has recently undergone a
name change, new practices have
been enacted to save the custom-
er money.
"We now place the Top 100
albums on sale for about one
dollar off the regular price said
Perryman. "We also rent albums
overnight in order to give the
customer who records their own
tapes the chance to record
without having to buy the album
at full price.
"All albums, at $7.98 or
below, naturally sell better if
they're on sale. Often, if an
album is doing well while on sale
but hits a slump when it goes
back to the regular price, I'll put
it back on sale
Neither Apple, nor Record
Bar sell albums for the suggested
list price. Both offer a discount of
about $1.30.
There has been no apparent
local protest to the increase.
"While I couldn't boycott my
own store, I urged customers not
to buy the new Queen album
when it was released said
Young. "It didn't do any good
Perryman expected some pro-
test to the price-hike, but little
came.
"I hope the public isn't so
apathetic that the rise doesn't
bother them he said. "Before
the increase, a customer would
ask when a record would be on
sale but buy it anyhow. Now when
they ask, they're serious, they'll
wait. They're more money con-
scious.
"But it's too late to protest.
The record companies have al-
ready gotten the idea of $7.96
albums in gear. It would take a
statewide protest, with other
states joining us, to get any
attention
There will probably not be
another price rise in the near
future.
"The record oompanies have
gotten enough static about this
increase that they' II probably wait
a while before imposing another
one said Perryman.
But all new albums by the top
artists will probably be listed at
$7.98.
Neither Young nor Perryman
think albums are worth the
increased price.
"I think they'd be worth it if
they improved their quality
said Young. "Mainly, though, it's
a personal value judgment
Perryman agreed on poor
sound.
"Albums today aren't worth
what you pay for them he said.
"Albums printed in the U.S.
don't have the same sound
quality as an import. I think
import sales might increase if the
record prices do. Since imports
have a better quality, and are now
in the same price range, why not
buy an import?'
If the increase is here to stay,
what can be done about it?
"Ideologically you can beat
the increase by boycott, but
realistically you can't said
Young. "The only solution I can
offer is to not buy anything except
what's on sale. Some oompanies,
if an album isn't selling except
when it's on sale, will lower its
price

17 May 1977 FOUNTAINHEAO Page 13
Pete Conaty Athlete-of-the-Year
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
Editor's note: This is the last
issue of FOUNTAINHEA D for the
1976-77 school year and it's time
for the athlete-of-the-year to be
announced. Out of 52 nominees
for the honor, Pete Conaty, a
two-sport star, was voted the
winner by a fairly large margin
over second place Debbie Free-
man, co-winner of last year's
award.
It's not often that a college
athlete decides to play in two
different sports in the same
school year. And it's even more
unusual for an athlete to excel in
two different sports in one year.
But Pete Conaty did just that.
The 175-pound senior from
Annandale, Va. led the Southern
Conference in football in scoring
and field goals and was one of the
ace pitchers on the Southern
Conference champion East
Carolina baseball team.
Conaty's 86 point1: were the
best in the Southern Conference
in football last season and the
fifth best single season total in
the school's history. He is the
first kicker ever to lead East
Carolina in scoring.
The second string quarterback
on the team, Conaty finished 15th
in the nation in scoring and in the
field goals. He hit on his first ten
field goal attempts and was just
one away from tying the NCAA
mark of 11 in a row when he
missed against Southern Illinois
in the Pirates' fifth game of the
season. Conaty was the nation's
leading kick scorer for much of
the season, but finished second to
Pitt's Carson Long.
In baseball, Conaty ended up
the regular season with an 8-2
record, winning his last seven
decisions. He is considered one of
the top two pitchers on the East
Carolina team, along with fresh-
man Mickey Britt, who finished
with a 9-0 mark.
Conaty led the team with 77

strikeouts on the season, as well
as innings pitched with 82 and
two-thirds. His last victory was a
hard-earned 2-1 victory over The
Citadel in the first game of the
doubleheader that gave the
Pirates the league title. He was
pitching against Richard Weiters,
considered the toughest pitcher in
the Southern Conference.
Conaty is in strong contention
for the Southern Conference
Athlete-of-the-Year award that
will be named in the coming
weeks.
Debbie Freeman, one of the
most versatile athletes at East
Carolina, took second place be-
hind Conaty. Freeman, Co-
Athlete-of-the-Year last year, was
a three-sport star for the Lady
Pirates this year.
A 5-8 forward in basketball,
Freeman led the state in scoring
with over 22 points per game and
in rebounding with over 13 per
contest. She did all that even
though the Lady Pirates suffered
through a 6-16 campaign. She
led ECU in scoring in 15 of the 22
games played and in rebounding
in 17 games.
Freeman was also on the Lady
Pirates' track team, where she
broke three school records. In the
recent ECU Women's Open Track
Meet, Freeman threw the discus
129 feet to break her old varsity
mark by over ten feet. Her throw
was just six feet off the national
qualifying standard. She also
heaved the shot 38-6 to set
another school record. Her other
record came in the javelin.
During the fall season, Free-
man was one of the top spikerson
the Lady Pirates' volleyball team.
Placing third in the balloting
was Calvin Alston, star of the
outdoor track team.
Alston, a 5-7 sprinter on the
team, qualified for the NCAA
Championships in three events
and is expected to qualify in
one more before the champion-
ships start next month.
The native of Henderson,
N.C. has qualified for the nation-
als in the 200 and 400 meters
events and the 400 meter relay.
The Pirates' mile relay team is
expected to qualify in the next
week and Alston will be a part of
that also.
Alston has knocked the 200
record down to 20.8 this season
while timing out in 46.6 in the 400
meter event. He leads off both
relay events, and has been timed
in 10.1 leading off the 400 meter
relay when they clocked 40.2
earlier this year.
All-America defensive end on
the Pirates' football team, Cary
Godette, finished fourth in the
voting fa Athlete-of-the-Year.
The senior from Havelock,
N.C. achieved all-America honors
in two publications this season
after making honorable mention
as a junior.
Godette, even though slowed
much of his career by a knee
injury, garnered all-Southern
Conference honors three times
and was named male athlete-of-
the-year by the Greenville Sports
Club this spring.
His play fa the last four years
at defensive end has been in-
valuable fa the Pirates.
PETE CONATY
Wrestling standout Phil
Mueller took fifth in the balloting
by virtue of his fine senia seasai
that saw him go 28-2.
Mueller, a native of Eden,
N.C, did not lose a dual match
during his junior and senior
seasons at East Carolina after
transferring from Wisconsin-
Stevens Point. He won Nath
Carolina Collegiate Champion-
ships and Southern Conference
Championships at 167 pounds
during both years and was named
the MVP of this year's meet. In
that meet, he pinned all three of
his opponents, winning in the
finals in 38 seoonds.
Ted Nieman of the ECU swim
team took sixth place in the
voting. The freshman star from
Winter Park, Fla. broke four
varsity reoads during his first
season here, as well as five fresh
marks. He was named
FOUNTAINHEADs MVP for
swimming.
Nieman's records came in the
200. 500,1000, and 1650 freestyle
events. He qualified for the
NCAA Championships in the 200
and finished 35th. He also swam
on the Pirates' two freestyle
relavs, 400 and 800. The 800 team
broke the old school mark by nine
seoonds. Nieman qualified fa the
AAU Champiaiships in the 200.
500 and 1650 frees.
Another freshman, Mickey
Britt of the baseball team,
followed Nieman in the voting.
Britt, a native of Hope Mills,
N.C, broke reoads fa most wins
in a season (9) and most
consecutive wins (9).
Britt finished with a perfect
9-0 mark and led the Southern
Conference with a 1.50 earned
run average. Characteristics of
Britt's pitching are a lot of

Little tabbed Coach-of-the- Year
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
Monte Little, in his first year
as ooach of the ECU baseball
team, was named FOUNTAIN-

peers, the coaches, and the
writers of FOUNTAINHEAD and
the Sports Information Office in
voting last week.

able margin over Bill Carson,
ooach of the Southern Conference
champion indoor and outdoor
track teams. Football coach, Pat
Dye, finished third in the ballot-
ing while Ray Scharf of the men's
swim team took fourth.
Little inherited a baseball
team that had lost 13 lettermen
off a 22-7 team and molded them
into a oohesive unit that won 15 of
16 Southern Conference encount-
ers and 30 of 40 overall. The
Pirates won the xnference title
by one game over Western
Carolina.
"I thought we'd have a good
team Little said looking back
over the year, "but I never
thought we'd do quite this well.
We had some young players to
develop a lot more quickly than
expected
Little said he never dreamed
the Pirates would have to win 15
of 16 to win the league title.
Western Carolina, the only loop
foe to down the Pirates, kept the
pressure on the young Pirates
throughout the season and the
Pirates had to sweep a double-
header against The Citadel in the
last regular season games to win
the title outright. The Citadel was
tied with Western Carolina, one
game back of the Pirates, going
into the doubieheader. The
Pirates took the two games, 2-1

Paul Osman, another wrest-
ler, finished eighth in the ballot-
ing. Osman, a native of McLean,
Va ran off a string of 24 matches
without a loss before bowing out
in the NCAA Championships. His
only blemish during that period
was a tie against national place
winner Bob Sloand of Lehigh.
Osman did not lose a dual
match during the season and won
two tournaments, the Wilkes
Open and Southern Conference.
The Wilkes Open is the most
prestigious tournament in the
nation except the nationals.
Quarterback Mike Weaver, of
the football team, finished ninth
in the voting. Weaver led the
team in total offense with 1124
yards and in passing with 633
yards.
A 6-3 senior from Williams-
ton, Weaver was honorable
mention all-conference and was
the Chevrolet Offense Player-of-
the-Game for his performance
against Appalachian State on
ABC-TV. He had 193 yards total
offense in the oontest that de-
cided the Southern Conference
title.

Gale Kerbaugh, a two-sport
star, rounds the FOUNTAIN-
HEAD'S top ten. Kerbaugh was
named all-state in basketball for
the Lady Pirates, averaging 17.4
points per game, despite playing
point guard. She was also named
by FOUNTAINHEAD as MVP in
volleyball.
A 5-6 native of Raleigh,
Kerbaugh was averaging around
13 points a game in basketball
when all-stater Rosie Thompson
was injured after the fourth game
in the season. She then started
taking more of the scoring load,
averaging around 19 points per
game during the remainder of the
season.
The seoond team includes:
Herb Gray - men's basketball;
Sonny Wooten - baseball;
Herman Mclntyre - men's indoor
and outdoor track; Larry Hunt -
men's basketball; Gerald Hall -
football; John Tudor - men's
swimming; Betsy Adkins - gym-
nastics; Jim Bolding - football;
Gail Betton - field hockey,
women's track; and John Mo-
Cauley - men's swimming.
Bolding was oo-Athlete-of-
the-Year, along with Freeman,
when he led the nation in pass
intercept ions for the ECU football
team.
FOUNTAINHEAD would like
to thank all the coaches and
writers for taking part in this poll
and would like to especially
congratulate the Pirates' five
Southern Conference Champions
- football team, men's swimming
team, men's indoor track team,
baseball team and men's outdoor
track team. These championship
sports made it possible for East
Carolina to win the Commission-
er's Cup fa the 1976-77 school
year, the award won by the team
with the best overall athletic
program in the Southern Con-
and 3-2, to win the title.
The Pirates will begin play in
the Atlantic Regional of the
NCAA Playoffs this weekend at
the University of South Carolina
in Columbia.
Carson added his seoond and
third consecutive Southern Con-
ference Championships with the
indoor and outdoor double. The
Pirates won the two titles by
margins of one and three points.
I think our guys did a fine job
this season Carson said follow-
ing the outdoor meet. "That's the
mark of a good team to win the
close ones
Carson's squad had to come
from way behind at the outdoor
meet to overtake Furman by a
128-125 margin. They had de-
feated William and Mary 67-66
indoors.
Pat Dye brought the first
football title to East Carolina
since 1973 when his Pirates beat
Appalachian State 35-7 on
Thanksgiving Night before a
regional television audience. Dye
has improved on his record every
year during his three years here.
COACH-OF-THE-YEAR first place
His 1974 team went 7-4, then 8-3
in '75 and 9-2 last season.
Scharf took his 12th consecu-
tive Southern Conference swim
title last winter and was fourth in
the balloting. The Pirates have
won every swim title since they
entered the league in 1966.
Laurie Arrants, ooach ot the
field hockey and women's track
teams, was fifth in the voting for
coach-of-the-year. Arrants' track
team defeated every team in the
state, and although there was no
state championship, the Lady
Pirates claimed the unofficial
state title.
John Wei born, coach of the
second place wrestling team in
the Southern Conference, finish-
ed sixth in the balloting, while
Cynthia Averett and Randy
Randolph, coaches of the
women's and men's tennis teams,
respectively, tied for seventh.
Stevie Chepko, ooach of the
gymnastics team and women's
swim team, and Mac McLendon,
ooach of both the women's and
men's golf teams, tied for ninth.

East Carolina wins
Commissioner's Cup
East Carolina, bolstered by a
strong finish in the spring sports,
captured their third outright
Southern Conference Commis-
sioner's Cup in the eight years it
has beengiven. ECU won the cup
in 1973-74 and 1974-75. The
Pirates tied with William & Mary
fa the cup in 1969-70, while the
Indians took the cup the other
four years.
The Commissioner's Cup is
symbolic of the best overall
athletic program in the Southern
Conference.
The Pirates were in third place
in the cup race at the end of the
winter sports, one behind Appa-
lachian State and five behind the
Indians. But, first place finishes
in baseball and outdoor track and
a tie fa second in golf allowed the
Pirates to overtake the Williams-
burg, Va. school.
East Carolina finished with
58V2 pointsto5712 fa the Indians
and 56 fa the Mountaineers.
Furman took fourth with 52V2,
while VMI finished fifth with 45,
The Citadel with 3512 and
Davidson last with 24.
In all, the Pirates had five first
place finishes: football, indoa
track, swimming, outdoa track
and baseball. William & Mary
gained first in soccer and wrest-
ling, while Appalachian State won
rifle.
An ironic point about the
Commissiona's Cup is that the
two schools that have won all the
cups, ECU and William & Mary ,
are leaving the conference at the
end of the current season.

Hill named new wrestling coach
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
Bill Hill, East Carolina's only
all-America in wrestling, was
named last Friday as the new
head wrestling coach for the
Pirates. He succeeds John Wel-
born, coach for ten years at ECU,
who relinquished his duties as
head coach at the end of this
season in order to devote more
time to his position as Assistant
Director of Athletics.
Hill wrestled at East Carolina
from 1970-1974, winning four
consecutive Southern Conference
titles at 177. His senior year, Hill
finished fifth in the NCAA
Championships, being named all-
America.
While at ECU, Hill was the
North Carolina Collegiate
Champion for four years; voted
best wrestler in North Carolina
three years; First Colonies Tour-
nament Champion two years;
Maryland Federation Champion
three years; Colgate Open
Champion two years; Georgia
Tech Champion two years;
Thanksgiving Open Champion
two years; and fifth in the
nationals in 1974.
Hill worked as assistant
wrestling coach under Wei born
for the two years following his
graduation, with the Pirates
winning the Southern Conference
title both years.
Bucs compete in final
track meet before NCAA
Hill coached at E.C. Glass
High School in Lynchburg, Va. for
the past year, taking his team to
the Western District Champion-
