Loan Fund Aids
Non-Residents
New legislation which makes it
possible for a student to borrow
inoney for educational expenses
from his school?regardless of his
state of residence?has gone into
operation under the Guaranteed
Student Loan Program.
The new type of loan is authoriz-
ed by recent amendments to Con-
ress' Higher Education Act of 1965-
In most states, before the amend-
ments were enacted, loans to non-
resident students could not be in-
sured The amendments permit the
Federal Government to insure loans
made by a college to a student
who by reason of his residence,
does not have access to a state or
private loan insurance program.
The amendments also open the
,wv for such organizations as com-
mercial lending companies, insur-
ance companies and pension funds
to make federally insured loans to
Ftudents. Many of these organiza-
tions had been willing to loan to
students but had not been able to
guarantee the loans.
Students may borrow up to $1,600
a year to a maxinmm of $7,500,

rvovernment Association
Dvid Lloyd took exeep-
tloi . v. Tr -pucker's statements
concerning the presence of a
chairman Cherry Stokes in a
recent interview concerning the
offset printing for the University-
newspaper.
This latest of printing methods
has been ordered by the ECU pub-
lications board. The EAST CARO-
LINIAN will purchase the machines
on a monthly rental basks, pending
the approval of the S.G.A Legisla-
ture.
The machines will include two
parts, a magnetic tape electric re-
corder input and an output mag-
netic tape selectric composer. The
selectric composer will make copy
ready for the lined layout sheets
and composition by the layout staff-
into a camera ready copy for the
final stages of printing by a private
printing firm.
The printer's copy is developed
from the picture of the original
pasting of the layout copy rather
that having to set the copy into
plate as m the anachronou lino-
type form.
Needs Only A Typist
The intitle qualification for an
operator of these I.B.M. machines
is that the person be a capable
typist, and undergo three days of
training.
The operator will type the news
article into the-input machine,
which will in turn record into a
magnetic tape. If the typist makes
an error, all she must do to cor-
rect the mistake is to type over
the error which erases the mis-
take and makes the correction in
the recorder.
When the news has been record-
ed the tope is transferred to the
magnetic tape selectric composer.
This machine Is programmed tor
column width and letter style. The
copv is then made ready for the
present layout staff which com-
poses the newspaper into the same
camera-ready copy.
SAVE $3,500
This new process will not only
reduce the present quarterly print-
in cost from $9,000 to $5,500 sav-
ing $3,500 a quarter, but will allow
a possible deadline to be only a
tew hours before the copy goes to
PrThe present deadlines are 400
sundav for Tuesday's paper and
4 no Tuesday tor Thursday's paper.
These deadlines make Wednesday's
news the following Tuesday's his-
tory. The offset process will not
only improve the quality of the
lettering and the pictures for an
overall better appearance. BUT
WLL ALSO be a first step toward
a daily newspaper.
STEP TOWARD ECU PRESS
In the worus of SGA president,
David Lloyd, "Offset w'll put the
EAST CAROLINIAN for the first
time, printingwise, in the same
class as the DAILY TARHEEL ot
Carolina and State's TECHNICIAN.
This is a first step toward an East
Carolina University press" which
will benefit all ECU publications
and also add to the publications.
The equipment has been orderd
and can be ready for use by Spring
Quarter.
?The s-adents should let the
SGA representatives and officers
and administrators of the univer-
sity know that they want this need-
ed step toward our own printing
press commented Stokes during
his interview.
Bids On Project
To Open Soon
The efforts on the gratification
project for Dr. Leo Jenkins are go-
ing "full steam says S.G.A.
President David Lloyd.
The project, which honors Dr.
Jenkins, lacks only $1,000 for com-
pletion. Several hundred dollars of
concrete have been donated by
White Concrete Company In Green-
ville.
"Hopefully and very definitely,
we will have a dedication on March
1st says David Lloyd about the
project.
With 'he support from the Pan-
hellenic Council with their pledge
rock drives, AFROTC and the IFC,
many rocks have been donated.
Money from alumni and outsiders
interested in showing appreciation
to Dr. Jenkins have been contribut-
ed.
?T would like to thank the stu-
dents, faculty members, and ad-
ministration who have helped
comments David Lloyd. "We have
far exceeded our expectations, ex-
pected enthusiasm, and material
and monetary contributions. This
will be a living thank you to our
president for his many years of ser-
vice and success
Plans are being finalized and ap-
proved by President Jenkins. Vice-
President P. D. Duncan, and the
gratification committee
As soon as the plans are approv-
ed, the committee will open bidding
for contractors. Smart Woodall and
Associates of Raleigh and Green-
ville will be responsible for the bid-
ding.
The gratification monument will
be located at the top of College
Hill Drive. The reason for this lo-
cation is twofold. First, the monu-
ment will add beauty to College
Hill: and secondly, the College Hill
was consructed under Dr Jenkins'
administration.
The monument contauis a trick-
ling-water fountain and patio made
from the students rocks and three
highly polished aluminum flag-
poles at staggered heights.
Served Community
The main theme of the project
is Dr. Jenkins served his country.
his state and his school, which will
be symbolized by the three flag-
poles near the fountain.
The fountain will be circular
which symbolizes Dr. Jenkins as
the center of the University, radiat-
ing his authority throughout the
university.

Pub Board Dispute
Tin following editorial as a result of the controversial
nature of the subject is consensus of opinions of the execu-
tive staff of the EAST CAROLINIAN, which includes the
Editor-in-Chief, the Business Manager, the Managing Editor,
and the Production Manager. Its purpose is not to inflame,
but to inform the students of n situation existing on the cam-
ECU Forum

pus, and
stand.
A vote by one of the Student Government Association's
most, significant organs was virtually overruled by an act oi
the Dean of Student Affairs Wednesday.
When the Dean of Student Affairs took the initiative to
utilize his position of power to declare void an act of the Pub-
lications Board, he overstepped his bounds and used that
power flagrantly.
Actions of this type indicate the attitude that to a large
degree prevails among certain members of the Administration
toward the position and actions of the Student Government
Association, proving that their surface willingness to govern
themselves is a mere facade, hiding a smug feeling of ad-
ministrative omnipotence.
For example, the official cited above, who serves
as permanent chairman of the Publications Hoard, first at-
tacked the action of the meeting of the Board, called the
meeinjr "illegal" and clamined that no quorum for business
was present.
He was mistaken on both of the previously mentioned
arguments, possibly due to the fact that he was not present
at the meeing. First, let us consider the "illegal" statement.
The meeting held by the Board on December 17 was a legal
meeting for the inti'oduetion of business, for that administra-
tion official, acting as Board chairman, had himself given
consent, to consideration of business. Despite his subsequent
claim that the meeting was held for the sole purpose of having
picures taken, the facts indicate the fallacy of that statement.
Even if no prior consent for the handling of business
had been given, the decision by the chairman to select an act-
ing chairman to serve in his absence provides implied consent
for the conducting of business, provided a quorum was present.
This presents the second phase of his attack on the ac-
ceptability of the action of the Board. According to accepted
rules of order, a dispute over the existence of a quorum may
occur only before the initiation of business in a meeting. Thus,
any person wishing to dispute the presence of a quorum must
present his argument at the opening of the session, not three
weeks later, as done by this administrator. However, assum-
ing that such a rule of order did not exist, the fact that more
than 50 of the total membership of the Board voted in favor
of the resolutions passed does indeed speak loudly for their
acceptance.
That such a situation could occur speaks poorly for that
administrator. It has been seldom that any member of the
Administration has so obviously attempted to subject his will
over the duly-elected members of the Student Government.
The fact that the Publications Board lists faculty members
as well as students among its membership merely adds to the
ignobility of the action.
But the question for consideration is a far greater one?
one that vastly exceeds the point of whether the order placed
by the Publications Board was a valid exercise of the power
of the members to, as the KEY puts it, "let contracts Yes,
the matter that cries out for attention provokes more far-
reaching ramifications than such a narrow thing as a simple
order, for the fact of the order is merely a cataylst to firing
into view the greater issue.
The existence of order on this campus has largely been
due to the important position occupied by the Student Gov-
ernment Association, a position that has been pointed to with
pride by students, faculty members, and administrators alike.
Order can continue to exist only if no breakdown of that
SGA position occurs, and actions such as this one by the
Dean of Student Affairs constitute a real threat to the elect-
ed voice of the students.
The Dean of Student Affairs has made the statement
that the action of the Publications Board has set a "dangerous
precedent To the contrary, it is he who has set a dangerous
precedont, a precedent for a return to total rule by the Ad-
ministration.
The question remains to be answered?is this to be a
university that has student government, or is it to be a uni-
versity ruled by an autocracy of Administration figures0
There is no middle ground.
No student has asked for complete control of the univer-
sity. All that has ever been requested is that the Consitution
of the Student Government Association be respected, by ad-
ministrators as well as students . . . "And if that be treason,
then make the most of it

Athletes' Curriculum
To The Editor:
"May I suggest .strongly that all

to establish programs during the
term or quarter of their participa-
tion, wherein they would not be
required to attend any classes.

the EAST CAROLINIAN Dec. 19.
1968.1
The article from which the above
quote was taken raises several im-
poitant points fur discussion. Dr.
Jenkins stated thai athletes re-

By NELDA S. LOWE
In response to a letter in today's
forum, I feel a clarification is ne-
cessary as to the intent of President
Jenkin's December speech Hav-
ing read the ti content of the
speech, it is my opinion that Dr.
Jenkins is. in general, advocating a
more practical combination of the
academic and extracurricular with
athletics as his prime example.
"The exp-nsion of athletic programs
on many campuses, accompanied by
rapidly rising scholastic standards,
places many athletes in the middle
of a squeeze say Jenkins. This
squeeze is also felt by other campus
leaders such as SGA officials, edi-
tors of campus publications and stu-
dents whose major study requires
periods of concentration such as
mu-ic majors preparing for required
r ttals. in taking his stand, Dr.
Jenkins admits "it's foolhardy to
wait for an explosion without seek-
ing its remedies
Jenkins feels it is unrealistic to
expect the athlete to compete with
the student in his class on an equal
basis, when he of necessity must
be away from class. He states. "If
an activity such as athletics is
worthy of being on the campus, if
is worthy of being organized so
that every qualified student can
participate
However, Mr, Warren eem;
doubtful of the importance of ath-
letics on campus. He states. "If any
extracurricular activities interfere
with the academic instruction of
students, and all athletics must of
necessity be classified as extracur-
ricular, then it would seem ex-
pedient to curtail the extracurri-
cular activities Dr. Jenkins feels
that "aggressive athletic programs
are very worthwhile and very much
needed and should be encouraged
by all. We cannot rightfully con-
tinue to bemoan the behavior of
youth and the rise of juvenile de-
linquency and drug addiction on
our campuses if we make no ef-
forts to provide wholesome activi-
ties through expanding and vigor-
ous athletic programs
Mr. Warren also feels that stu-
dents must be mentally above ave-
rage and highly motivated to do
well in such a self study program.
Although the athlete may not al-
ways be mentally above average, it
would seem to this writer that he
must be highly motivated in order
to extend himself into the field of
athletics. In this time of high edu-
cational standards, it would seem
that only those who are motivated
above the average would attempt
to broaden their concept of higher
education to include the extracur-
riculars.
Educators, writers, and psycho-
logists have time and time again
concluded that the extracurricular
activities are often major factors
in the development of the personal-
ity, maturity, outlook and many
other aspects of the adult which in-
line e his later success in life
These extracurricular exp
help the individual channel the
knowledge he has gained in the
classroom and view it in the proper
prospective.
Mr, Warren. I suggest that you
talk to a few job recruiters and
see how they feel about the im-
portance ol extracurricular activi-
ties. You will find that more often
than not. the student with a fairly
good scholastic record who lists ex-
'racurricular activities will win the
good job over the student who has
a little better scholastic record ob-
tained by four years of studying and
nothing else.
In reference to Mr. Warren's
third paragraph, Dr. Jenkins is not
asking that the athlete enroll m the
honors or graduate programs just
because they are the only self-study
programs in existence at the pre-
sent time. He is, however, advocat-
ing the implementing of programs
geared to the student's needs Which
would equip him with the same
education as the student who at-
tends lecture classes.
In answer to Mr. Warren's ques-
tion concei-nmg the top sports, let
me again quote Dr. Jenkins. "This
program is recommended only for
the two major sports?football and
basketball?because it is in these
two activities that the greatest
demands are made upon the ath-
letes
It is regrettable that this news-
paper is unable to publish Dr. Jen-
kins' speech in its entirity, for sure-
ly if students could read its entire
content they would better under-
stand Dr. Jenkin's proposal and its
merits. Those of us who condemn
a proposal before we have studied
it. in as much depth as he who
proposes it and before the idea Is
given a chance to be tried, are the
ones who slow down the improve-
ments needed in today's system of
education.

That this is true is substantiate
by the fact that selKstudy p,0.
grams at E.C.TJ. are limited t0

writer ??: all athletes are quaj.
fied for honors programs or nad!
uate work. It would seem, there-
fore, that this program is miprac.
tical in light of the present attitude
of the university toward self-studn
programs.
Finally. Dr. Jenkins stated that
this proposal would cover only ath-
letes participating in varsity foot-
ball and basketball, as they are the
"top sports We hould like to
know what i.s meant by "top
sports These two are certainly
not top sports in terms of practice
and effort involved. Athlete par-
ticipatmg in crew, track, swim-
ming, baseball, etc as well u
freshmen football and basketball
practice equally hard and long- and
are subjected to the same restric-
tions as those participating in var-
sity football and basketball. Why
should not these other athletes be
included in the proposal; unless it
"is" aimed solely and specifically
at aiding the two sports which bring
the most monetary return and
statewide attention to the univer-
lty. The paretheticaJ inclusion of
music majors and SGA officers
seems to be a poor cover-up for
this and therefore seems to add
credibility to this view. Dr. Jen-
kins has stated on several other
occasions that all sports at ECU
receive equal support and emphasis
from the administration. If this
proposal becomes policy it will be
directly mconsistant with earlier
stated policy.
This writer does not often find
cause to quarrel with faculty or
administration policy, and has the
utmost respect for Dr. Jenkins and
his accomplishments. However, we
strongly feel that this proposal to
allow athletes participating in var-
sity football and basketball to skip
all Classes during the quarter of
their participation would be detri-
mental and grossly unfair to both
athletes and the entire student
body should it be implemented.
Most Sincerely,
David S. Warren
Monument
To The Editor:
In recent weeks I have noticed
articles concerning the building of
a monument to Doctor Jenkins
Most, notable is the fact that, every-
one agrees on President Jenkin's
contributions to our university.
However I must agree with the ar-
ticle which appeared some weeks
ago in the EAST CAROLINIAN
questioning the usefulness of such
a monument. I agree with the ar-
ticle in that a parking lot or class-
room dedicated in the memory of
President Jenkins would be more
useful.
Monuments are for the birds
Ralph W. Johnson
Campus Viewpoint
What i.s the organization and
Function of the Publcations Board?
According to THE KEY, the
board "serves as an advisory and
supervisory board responsible for
counseling in fiscal matters and
overseeing the four SGA publica-
tions. The publications governed
are: THE EAST CAROLINIAN
BUCCANNEER, THE REBEL and
THE KEY.
The board is the supreme policy-
making body which makes decisions
regarding the operations of these
publications. It is through this
group that "contracts are let, edi-
tors are selected, salaries are set,
and plans for the publication are
approved.
"The board is composed of ad-
ministrative officials, faculty ad-
vis-ors of the publications, student
editors and business managers of
the publications, and student mem-
bers-at-large elected by the SGA
Legislature according to page 35
of THE KEY.
At the last Publications Board
ling on Dec. 17. approval was
By James Hord
given for the EAST CAROLINIAN
to order offset printing equipment
in order to facilitate production of
the newspaper. By use of this equip-
ment, more up-to-date news cover-
age could be given to the students;
the quality off the paper would be
improved; and expansion of the
paper would be possible?i.e some-
day the EAST CAROLINIAN may
become a daily newspaper. Also
and most important, the cost of
production would be lowered.
But this decision by the Publi-
cation Board to order this equip-
ment was to be overruled by the
Dean of Student Affairs. Last Wed-
nesday, for reasons known best to
himself, he acted to cancel an or-
der placed with the IBM Company
for this equipment. Thus, the ac-
tion taken by his administrator
sought to set the EAST CARO-
LINIAN back to the standards of
a high school newspaper.
If East Carolina is to become a
major university, its newspaper
must not be limited in scope by
the administration, nor be subject
to their dictates and notions.

"We hope you have a dry
year
By SANDY HOLLAND
P. Milam J hnson, the campus
computing center director, has re-
cently devised a series of test
grading programs. One part of the
program is designed to grade SCAT
and SAT tests. The second part of
the test scoring program should be
of interest to various teachers on
the East Carolina campus. The
computers can eliminate the time
consuming process of grading mul-
tiple choice and true-false tests.
NOW AVAILABLE
This grading program is avail-
able to all teachers on campus free
of charge. Mr. Johnson is not
recommending this objective type
of testing as the best method, but
the computers, are available for the
teachers that do give multiple
choice and true-false quizzes.
Teachers taking advantage of
this grading method should give
the computing center half a day's
notice before bringing the tests to
be graded.
The whole process takes no more
than fifteen minutes. The tests
must be taken on IBM 1230 docu-
ment No. 510 standard answer
each students I.D. number and
name, their answers, and the num-
ber of answers they answered cor-
rectly. The incorrect answers are
identified by an asterik below them.
The information also includes a
list of people that didn't take the
test, the number of papers graded,
the average number of correct
fight birth defects
MARCH
questions, and the standard de-
viation in the class. All of this is
sheets that are available at the
central supply. The answer sheets
allow for three hundred questions.
DETAILED EVALUATION
The teacher brings only three
things: answer sheets, yellow class
cards, and one answer sheet with
the correct answers. The computer
takes this much information and
gives back a detailed evaluation of
the quiz. The results include the
number of questions the correct
answers as given by the teacher,

emy awards, the films is beautifully
photographed in color and contains
scenes that still leave audiences
breathless. The tragic story of the
Old South and its downfall is su-
perbly acted by a veritable cast
of thousands, including Vivian
Leigh, Clark Gable, Olivia de Havil-
land, and Leslie Howard. If you've
never seen it, don't miss this op-
portunity; if you have, you'U find
something new each time you see
it again. This great film will be
playing at the Plaza Cinema through
January 21th.
Another very popular film, "The
