96 Years
A university is only as good as the people who make up
its faculty and students.
Five of the people who have contributed greatly to East
Carolina University have announced their retirement from
the staff here.
Dr. Kenneth Bing, Dr. Hubert Coleman, Mrs. Marguerite
Crenshaw. Dr. Paul Murray, and Alice Strawn will not he
with the faculty when fall quarter begins next month.
These five servants to a multitude of students at Easl
Carolina have altogether contributed more than 96 years of
service here. In that period of time, a conservative guess as to
the number of students they have taught would be well into
the region of 30,000.
Or. to put it another way, the five together have taught
and helped more than enough students to fill the new Minges
Coliseum almost four times.
Service is one of the key words in the East Carolina Uni-
versity vocabulary. These five have done their share toward
making this school worthy of university status, through their
untiring and unending service.
In the time that they have been here they have seen the
enrollment of the university grow from less than 2000 to a
figure approaching 10,000. They have seen the emphasis of
East Carolina University change from that of a small teacher
orientation to that of a major university in every sense of the
word. They have witnessed a change in the composition of the
student body from one of local students to that present today,
which embraces students from all over the country and the
world, with representatives of every race, religion, and ethnic
group.
This growth has not been an accident. It has been the re-
sult of the work of these five citizens of this university com-
munity and of those like them, who find themselves in dedi-
cation to youth.
They will not be forgotten or replaced easily. All those
who have had the benefit of their wisdom and dedication will
remember them, both student and faculty.
But these five members of this university family will not,
if past performance is any indication, be leaving East Caro-
lina University in the truest sense of the word, for their inter-
ests and dedication to this school's ideals will continue long
after retirement.
To those five people who have given so much to this uni-
versity, this Editor wishes to express his gratitude, as a rep-
resentative of the entire study body, for their service, for
their work for this school has in some way bettered each of us
here.
To you five people, I extend my thanks and this heartfelt
tribute.

Plans on the Bell Tower of Old
Austin are still indefiiiate. The
wrecking company was supposed
to have a crane up here to take it
off, but as of yet, we are still wait-
ing for the crane. As the problem
stands now, the wrecking company
is going to bring it down and at-
tempt to restore it to It's original
form. If this is done, everyone will
be satisfied.
The Soda ouop remoueiing has
run into a problem. No one seems
to know what supports the wall on
which the sculpture is to be hung.
This sculpture, which will weigh
same hundred pounds, will be fin-
ished soon and hopefully will be
hung by fall. The main work of
painting the back wall and hanging
the sculpture will take place as
soon as possible.
In both of these cases we have
run into problems with the admin-
istration. The people working on
these projects are trying their best,
and they are putting many hours
into what at some times seems
fruitless.

He got $20,000 for doing "The
Graduate and now he is getting
S250.000 for making "Midnight Cow-
boy He is known and loved by us
as Benjamin Braddock: he is bus-
tin Hoffman.
Benjamin Braddock, the new
American college hero, arrived just
in time. Here we were, in the mid-
dle of the sixties, without a hero.
Hoiden Cauifieid. an old hero, had
temporarily submerged from view,
and Richard Farina, who had much
promise, was dead before his book
came out.
But Benjamin Braddock arrived,
and with style. Ben's style is prob-
ably pretty common to most college
graduates, because I have a feeling
that the way Ben sees it is the way
it is once you get out of school.
Ben is The Graduate, because few-
people really know what to do when
they get out of school. So, when
you graduate, you go home and
spend those embarassing days a-
round the house waiting for the
employment agency to call, or for
grad school to start or for the Army
to seek you out. Your parents show
you off, you drink a lot of beer, and
it's pretty hard to believe that
there'll be no more classes and no
more carefree days, because from
here on out, you're on your own.
Benjamin experiences all this
and more, and we love him because
we know that's true, and because
it's true, it makes up the style of
Benjamin Braddock.
Style is n little thing. In Ben-
jamin, I tend to think that it was
his honesty ? a trait carved into a
point of style. There are other styl-
ish things that make up Ben: his
monotone voice, his unsophistica-
lion, his simple purity.
Ben was honest to the point of it
being a hazard. Ben's honesty al-
most cost him Elaine, but you
wouldn't expect him not to tell
Elaine that he had had an affair
with her mother, that wouldn't be
his style.
You certainly wouldn't expect
Ben not to want to talk to Mrs.
Robinson, that wouldn't be his style
either. And Ben taking Elaine to
the strip joint on the first date was
also his style, because until he saw
she was fun to be with: and not a
drag, he was honest enough to not
hide his feeling that he didn't want
to be with her.
Ben was completely in character
standing on the bottom of the
swimming pool in his scuba gear,
and he was just as much in char-
acter banging his head off the hotel
wall.
That Ben, he had some style
didn't he, and when he cha-sed
Elaine to Berkley, and then to her
wedding, he restored my faith in
the great American college student.
The fact that Dustin Hoffman
brought style back to the screen'
is a bonus.
Dustin Hoffman plays Ratso Riz-
zo, a crippled con artist, iu "Mid-
night Cowboy his next movie. Just
as Ben had style, I believe that
Ratso will too. Dustin Hoffman
spent too many nights waiting on
tables at the Village Gate, and too
many days at New York Psychi-
atric Institute not to give style to
any character he plays.
At 31. Dustin's best days are yet
to come. But for me, I thank him
for giving us a hero to ease our
ways through the sixties, and for
giving the silver screen a little
style ? an honest style.
Prom looking at some of the del-
egates to the Republican Conven-
tion, I imagine that they still
don't know who won. I still be-
lieve that Spiro Agnew is .some

FEATURING
By BILL MORRISON
Neil Simon is the funniest com-
edy writer in the American theater
and "The Odd Couple" is one of
his funniest plays. It's froth, as
substantial as a Chinese dinner and
just as tasty.
Like its sister hits?only Simon
has had four comedy smashes on
Broadway at the same time?the
show is a running gag embellished
with more jokes than an audience
can catch in one sitting.
?Couple" opened here Monday
mght in McGinnis Auditorium be-
fore a painfully small audience
'about 250 personsi. But this wai
a hip audience that howled its de-
light at this story of a bachelor
marriage Before Saturday
night's final curtain of the season,
the comedy should prove a major
hit for the East Carolina Universi-
ty Summer Theater.
Simon's characters are real peo-
ple, trapped in ludicrous situations.
His jokes ? that come as fast as
they can be spoken ? are superbly
woven into the fabric of the dia-
logue and grow all the more funny
because of the cast's serious deliv-
ery.
The production under Ed Loes-
sln's well modulated direction
opens with a poker game that
swirls in round robin style to car-
ry us into the plot and introduce us
to the two characters who will pro-
vide several dozen belly laughs be-
fore the evening is over.
The game is interrupted by a
phone call, answered by Oscar, the
host. Felix, the missing fifth play-
er, has left his wife and threaten-
ed suicide. Murray, the pessimis-
tic cop, loses his head and tells
Oscar:
"He's going to kill himself. He's
going to go right out and kill him-
self Where did he go iOscar)?"
"He went out to kill himself
Eventually Felix arrives at the
apartment and the friends panic in
their attempts to cairn him. A
nervous Oscar bellows: "Where are
vou going
"To the john Felix replies.
?Alone?"
"I always go alone
"Will you be long?"
Those exchanges indicate Sim-
on's manner of building his com-
edy punches while utilizing the
"jokes" as conversation. The lines
come as regularly as breathing
and carry us from one situation in-
to the next with pauses only for

Felix moves in with Oscar and
the two come to find their rela-

this leads to the final blow-up. Os-
car says "The irony is that unless
we can come to some other ar-
rangement I'm going to kill you
The play stands or falls of course
with the actors w;ho portray the
cloddish Oscar and his "Mary Pop-
pins" roommate, Felix. And Loes-
sin has found an excellent Oscar in
Hansford Rowe, an actor who con-
veys his frustration with beautiful-
ly timed burns, yet leaps like a bal-
let dancer at the idea the "coo ,
cno" Pieeon sisters are going to
visit them. His exasperation is
real ? like the character he's cre-
ated - - because the touch is never
too heavy and many of his lines
are thrown away with a nice sense
of understatement.
Graham Pollock is less controlled
as Felix, tending to exaggerate a
part that has all the exaggeration
it needs in the lines. The actor is
most effective with his fresh sense
of movement and expression. Here
is a hilarious if sometimes near
farcical portrait of the old maid
bachelor.
The rest of the cast is as good as
the particular lines assigned it.
Standout is R. Gregory Zittel's
Murray, the cop. Jacqueline John-
son and Suse French bill and coo
their way into the funniest seg-
ment of the whole show. Here, a-
gain, Loessin's restraint in the
handling of the double date indi-
cates his real understanding of Si-
mon comedy and the manner in
which it should be staged.
H. Michael Byrum's lighting is
adequate, although in one scene a
window's shadow is reflected on the
sky outside. Peter Gould has done
an effective job with the set, giv-
ing Loessin plenty of working area
yet splendidly recreating the cal-
culated clutter that is Oscar's a-
partment before Felix moves in.
The comedy runs through Sat-
urday night with a 2:15 p.m. mat-
inee scheduled for Wednesday. It's
a fine entertainment bet by a num-
ber of standards, and it's the last
stage event to be found this sum-
mer between Charlotte and the
coast).

The East Carolinian Presents
'Coed Of The Summer
Once iii a lifetime a jiii comes
dong who can combine looks,
ins, and interesting hobbies with
an enjoyment of domestic chores.
Deborah Susan Williams, the dau-
ghter of Dr. and Mrs, Melvin Wil-
liams of the East Carolina Univers-
ity Department of Sociology, is
such a girl.
Debbie has been chosen by the
staff of the EAST CAROLINIAN
as their choice for 'Coed of the
Summer" on the basis of her looks
and charm.
The observant student on this
campus is almost sure to have run
into this vibrant, blonde beauty at
one time or another, for she de-
votes a great deal of her time to
various activities in the area. Per-
haps one may have noticed her as
a dancer in productions of the ECU
Playhouse, as she utilized her danc-
ing talents in the "A Funny Thing
Happened on the Way to the For-
um" and "Gypsy" productions.
Perhaps you may have seen her
in the halls or labs of Flanagan
Building, where she spends most
of her waking hours as a biology
major and lab assistant, which she
laughingly adn.ts : he "enjoys
greatly
She also can be found quite fre-
quently at a local dance studio,
where she teaches dancing to as-
piring stars. As if those activities
do not fill her spare time, she also
? (rks at a local sweets shop m the
afternoons.
It seems too good to be true that
such a lovely creature be on the
loo e in this area, and yes. fellows
. . .t is. Debbie admits to having
wedding jj.ans, and is engaged to
a profess. l baseball player.
This fact, combined with her na-
tural interest in sports, leads our
'Coed of the Summer" to be pres-
ent at most of the sporting events
in the area, from the high school
to the professional ranks.
Though she admits, with a
somewhat sly grin, that baseball is
her favorite, she also lists swim-
ming, tennis, diving, football, bas-
ketball, and automobile racing a-
. her athletic interests.

It's .i i i.u : However, there
is hope for the future. Ticket sali
and club memberships have al-
rea led new highs, which in-
dicates growing interest in ECU
Each year, rcu graduates almost
1500 students, it seems Implausable
that so many people year after
year can completely sever their ties
with East Carolina, but they do.
And people still ask why East
Carolina can't compete for the top
players with the Big Four. Apain
a Simple answer a lack of suffici-
ent finances.
Recently, one of the Bi Four
schools published a figure which
showed over a quarter million dol-
lars donated JUST FOR SPORTS'
Many of these schools spend large
amounts for recruiting each year
some around $50,000 just for loot-
ball, but East Carolina can't match
that for it's entire program'
Some time in the future, and
