DAN SUMMERS prepares ECU report.
Summers slated for
press secretary post
Realizing the gap between
students, the community, and
the Student Government
Association, John Schofield,
President of Regular Session
SGA, established a new post of
Press Secretary last May.
Schofield noted that his
purpose for establishing the
position was "to communicate,
with the students through
expanded means which will serve
the area, such as radio,
television, and the East
Carolinain
Gerald Roberson was the first
Press Secretary and served in the
month of May until the present
Secretary, Dan Summers was
appointed.
COMMUNICATION GAP
Roberson stated the purpose
of the post was to "fulfill the
lack of communication between
the SGA and the students and
also to inform the 'people of
Eastern Carolina of the activities
and outstanding abilities of East
Carolina
During Roberson's tenure in
office he aimed toward a weekly
television show and laid the
foundation for future expansion
of the post through all forms of
news media.
Though the post was created
under Schofield's platform,
Robert K. Adams, President of
Summer School SGA, approved
the position to continue this
summer instead of resuming in
the Fall.
FUTURE PLANS
Summers, a rising junior in
the Geography Department,
stated that he had just started to
get organized. His plans for the
future are to expand the
reputation of East Carolina
through not only radio but also
television.
As Press Secretary Summers
has established set times for
broadcasts on various radio
stations throughout Greenville.
He appears on WECU every
Tues. and Thurs. night at 7:30
p.m and on WOOW every Mon.
and Wed. night at 10:15 p.m.
His "ECU Report" is also
carried on WNCT each Wed.
night at 8:30 p.m.
During Second Session of
Summer School he plans to
begin a 5 minute program on
WECU Campus TV to report on
A small group of students
celebrated Independence Day by
distributing copies of the Bill of
Rights on the Greenvilie Post
Office stL.js.
Raeford Bland, a student at
ECU and a spokesman for the
"concerned citizens" involved,
said that the purpose of the
demonstration was to "affirm
our faith and belief in thn
Constitution, and particularly in
the Bill of Rights
The group had about 500
copies of the Bill of Rights and
one sign which read, 'Get Your
Free Copy of the Bill of Rights
Here "
DOCUMENT OFFERED
Participants offered the
document to passersby from 12
noon until 6:00.
When the group first
assembled early Friday
afternoon, acting Police Chief
Thomas Gladson informed them
that they would not be allowed
to demonstrate because they had
not obtained a permit.
The leaders of the group
explained that they were not
planning to demonstrate
anywhere except on the post
office steps.1 No permit is
needed to demonstrate on
Federal property.
Several demonstrators notea
that the police seemed unsure of
the size of the demonstration.
They were told the police had
allerted 70 State Patrol officers.
what's happening around the
campus as well as events of the
past and future.
Along with his other duties,
Dan also writes a column once a
week for the East Carolinian
entitled, "From the Executive
Desk which relates the
activities of the SGA for the
week.
Commenting on the work
that Summers has done since he
began as Press Secretary last
Spring, Roberson said, "Since
Dan has taken over he has done
an outstanding job
Roberson further noted, "He
has fulfilled not only his own
goals, but also any which I had

Camp Manteo to aid retarded
By EMILY DUNNING
East Carolina has announced
a new summer camp program for
mentally retarded children.
Camp Manteo is a special
education camp located in
Manteo, North Carolina.
Between eighty and ninety
mentally retarded children are
expected to take part in the
week of outdoor experiences.
CAMP OBJECTIVES
According to Dr. Martin, the
objectives of the camp are to
provide experiences in outdor
living, social adjustment,
learning of limited skills,
appreciation for camp life, and
"just good fun and adventure
"Camp Manteo will afford an
opportunity for mentally
retarded campers to participate
in an out-of-doors group
experience Dr. Martin noted.
Staff members for the camp
will include a director, camp
physician, registered nurse,
assistant nurses, counselors and a
recreation director.
TEACHERS AIDE
Serving the counselors will be
some thirty teachers who are
taking part in a workshop course
in Recreation for Retarded
Children which will be taught by
Miss Nell Stallings of the ECU
Physical Education Department
through the Division of
Continuinq Education.
Dr. William B. Martin,
associate professor of education
at ECU and NCARC president,
will direct the program. The
program is offered through the
joint efforts of the Governor's
Council on Mental
Rehabilitation, the N.C.
Association for Retarded
Children and the ECU Division
of Continuing Education.
STUDENTS INVOLVED
Two former ECU students
and Mrs. Charlotte Martin of the
ECU School of Nursing are also
involved in the project.
Although all staff positions
have been filled, there are still
openings for campers. The camp
will be held during the week of
July 27 to Aug 2. The campers
must be at least six years old and
able to walk alone. The cost will
be $35 per week per child.
DEMONSTRATORS HAND out Bill of Rights.
GROUP WARNED
The group was warned that if
they displayed their sign other
than on Federal property, the
alerted officers would arrest
them.
When some of the
demonstrators asked why the
pictures were taken, Gladson is
said to have replied, "So that we
will know who to look for if you
get out of hand
During the day patrol cars

Another participant added,

fldams tells platform success
First, I would like to thank
the Elections Committee and
Computer Center for the
excellent job they did in
coordinating the first
computerized election ever at
East Carolina. Although there
were a few minor complications,
it is my hope that this process
can be utilized in all future
elections.
I am pleased to announce in
less than one week in office
certain of the planks of my
platform have been
implemented. Probably the most
important of these is the
opening of the Soda Shop an
hour earlier.
SODA SHOP OPENS
On Tuesday, July 1st, they
opened at 7:30 a.m. for the first
time. I urge each of you to take
advantage of this service. In
addition, the SGA Legislature
has formed a committee to look
into the possibility of opening
the Student Supply Store at
7:30.
With cooperation from the
new Dean of Women, Carolyn
Fulghum, student hostesses will
be on duty during the hour of
5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the
House Counselor's office in each
of the girls' dorms beginning
second session summer school.
After nearly two months of
silence, the public address
system in Greene dormitory has
been repaired.
Also, for your convenience,
two hundred copies of the
minutes from the SGA
Legislature meeting will be
placed at "The East Carolinian"
newspaper stand in the
University Union Lobby
ORIGINALS PERFORM
For the first time the
Summer School Dance will be
held off campus Saturday, July
12th. "The Originals" combo will
perform at the American Legion
Hut on St. Andrews Street, off
the 264 by pass, beginning at 8
o'clock.
The Summer School Queen
will be crowned at the dance
Don't forget to vote for the girl
of your choice on Thursday,
July 10, in the University Union
from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
As President of the SGA, I
would like to ask each student
to please contribute to the
"Coins for Crew" fund raising
drive this week. It is indeed
tragic that the success of the
crew team had to come to such
an abrupt halt. There will be a
booth set up in the University
Union Lobby, and there will be
authorized solicitors in each of
the dorms all this week. Any
donation that you can afford to
give, whether it be as much as a
dollar or just pocket change, will
be greatly appreciated.
If you have any ideas that
you think will improve the SGA
to benefit the students, please
do not hesitate to come bv mv

1:30-4:30 Monday through

Soda shop opens
early
Because of the problems
involved, the Student Supply
Store cannot be opened at an
earlier time. However, a few
items will be sold in the Soda
Shop from 7:30 a.m. until the
opening of the Supply Store for
the student's convenience.
An SGA committee was
formed for the purpose of
studying the feasibility of
opening the store at 7:30 a.m.
along with the opening of the
Soda Shop.
This committee worked with
Mr. Joseph O. Clark, manager of
the Student Supply Store and
Soda Shop. Mr. Clark explained
the difficulties involved in
opening the stores earlier.
The only problem of opening
the Soda Shop at 7:30 a.m. was
getting pastries there earlier and
hiring workers. Both problems
were effectively solved.
Mr. Clark pointed out that it
was not feasible to open the
Supply Store earlier because of
personnel problems
Since State employees are
limited to a forty hour week,
permission would have to be
obtained from the state before
workers could come in an hour
earlier.
Mr. Clark further pointed out
that a staggered shift would be
impractical and therefore, more
workers would have to be hired.
An alternative plan was then
proposed by the committee.
They suggested putting blue
books, pens, and pencils in the
Soda Shop in the morning at
7:30 a.m. for those who need
them.
Mr. Clark readily agreed to
sell these items in the Soda Shop
from 7:30 a.m. until 8:15 a.m.
when the Supply Store opens.
This service will begin
immediately.
Twenty-four teachers,
including one from Minnesota
and one from Florida, are

WHITNEY HADDEN
ln this computerized age,
there is a definite danger that
the value of individuality will be
lost among cards which are now
accumulating, waiting to be fed
into the great computer of life.
Students are becoming more and
more afraid of being lost in the
shuffle.
Computers are not infallible.
They have weaknesses, and
students can use these
weaknesses to strike back. For
instance, computers are
dependent upon the students for
their initial source of
nformation. Therefore, the
student can attack his
persecutors even before they
have sharpened their teeth on his
cardboard facsimile. Consider
some of the possibilities
SEX?
Sex is a good plac; to start.
The usual answer to the question
sex takes two forms: male or
female. However, the cybernetic
saboteur will endeavor to
rupture the computer's banks by
replying with an answer to
which the computer cannot
relate:1yes, no, or
occasionally; (2) undecided
(hence confusing it with
category 2, major); or (3)
delighted.
MAJOR?
Major is a difficult category
to confuse because it has a large
range of possible answers.
Therefore, we recommend the
standard answer: DECIDED.
RACE?
Race also presents a problem.
Here it is impossible to answer in
terms of black and white.
Possible answers include: (1)
440,880,100 yard dash; (2) next
Sunday night behind New
Austin, and (3 in a
Volkswagen???
DEGREE?
This question is obscure in
nature, therefore, it is open to
irrelevant answers, such as: (1)
g8 6; (2) yes why else do you
think I'm here?, and (3) MRS.
HAIR AND EYES?
The nature of this question is
opposite that of "major" due to
Js obvious literal translation.
The answer in both categories
could be "Yes but other
answers include: Under hair-(1)

It seems the Greenville police
were on the ball again this
weekend.
Not that they have anything
against the Bill of Rights, they
were probably only taking the
necessary precautions to insure
that those ten students who
were passing out copies of the
Constitution didn't start rioting.
Seventy cops were alerted.
Never let it be said that our
men in blue are anything less
than zealous
?
Never having allowed the tear
of consequences to restrain our
search for truth in the past, I
recently felt the need to
investigate the rest room
situation on campus.
Certain of the rooms in the
academic buildings are marked
Faculty Men or Faculty Women.
My natural curiosity being
what it is, the other day I
decided to find out how the
other side lives.
Waiting at the water fountain
until I was sure the room
designated for Faculty Men was
empty, I glanced furtively down
the halls and then slipped in.
I could scarcely believe my
eyes.
There was no lounge, no bar,
no steam room-nothing that I
had expected.
In fact, it was smaller than
the student rest rooms, and the
graffitti wasn't even half as
prolific or as interesting as that
found on student walls.
The first conclusion one
could draw is that the separate
but equal facilities are purely a
prestige device, but we will go
into this matter more deeply in a
later column.

Ml part of the fob?
By bob McDowell
What does a campus police
chief do besides write tickets?
For one thing, he removes
mules from dormitories.
It was homecoming weekend,
1955, when Campus Police Chief
Johnny L. Harrell was
confronted with the most
unusual case of his career
While making his regular
dormitory rounds. Chief Harrell
discovered a 2300 pound mule
blocking the first floor hallway
of Slay Hall (then a men's
dormitory). Harrell recognized
?he mule as one of a pair of
mules that had been brought to
campus by a local fraternity to
pull a hearse in the homecoming
parade.
MISSING MULE
After the parade, the
fraternity brothers tied the
mules to a tree behind the
Maintenance Building and left
them there while they went to
the homecoming football game.
Chief Harrell backed the mule
down the hallway and out of the
front of the building. When he
retied the mule behind the
Maintenance Building, he found
that the other mule was missing.
He returned to the dorm and
searched the first floor. No
mule. Then he climbed the stairs
to the second floor where he
found the missing mule.
It took approximately an
hour to back the mule down two
flights of stairs and out of the
dorm.
PIG IN BATHROOM
In 1961, when Jones Hall was
built. C h ief Harrell was
summoned to that dormitory
one Sunday morning to remove
a pig from the second floor
bathroom.
"There was a boy down on
his hands and knees scrubbing a
pig in the shower. The boy ran
Out and left the pig in the
bathroom Chief Harrell
recalled.
"I took the pig home and
advertised for its owner to come
and get it, but no one ever
claimed it
About a month later, I had a
barbeque he added.
MORE TRAFFIC,STUDENTS
Chief Johnny L. Harrell has
served East Carolina University
for 16 years. He began his duties
ln June, 1953, as "the only
officer on campus at that time
Today, Chief Harrell heads a
Police force responsible for a
campus with over 9,000
students. Today, there are
'wore cars, more students, and
"tore traffic
Chief Harrell has spent 16
years in police work, including 5
ars as a police officer in
Tarboro. He has attended the
law enforcement academy here,
as well as semi nars on
fingerprinting, search and
seizure, and motor vehicle
violations.
ECU's campus police force is
composed of 12 men (11
officers and a chief), 9 of whom
have backgrounds in police
work.
For the most part, a campus
policeman's job is routine. He
must protect the lives and
property of students, faculty,
and administrative officials on
campus. Also, campus policemen
must enforce the University's
many traffic rules.
LONG ARM
How far does the campus
policeman's authority reach?
"Students come under the
jurisdiction of the campus police
(or any administrative official)
when and where their activities
reflect on the student body
Chief Harrell explained.
How much authority do they
have?
Campus policemen "are
sworn in by the city of
Greenville and are empowered to
make arrests any time the law is
violated
What is their connection to
other law enforcement agencies?
"We are connected by radio
with all Pitt County law
enforcement agencies, and the
State Bureau of Investigation is
at our disposal any time we need
them Chief Harrell added that
the SBi can come on campus at
any time, but the Federal
Bureau of Investigation must
have the permission of the
administration to investigate
here.
During his 16 years on the
ECU campus. Chief Harrell has
watched the school grow from
1900 to nearly 10,000 students.
He has sent each of his 5
children to ECU. He has faith in
the school and it has faith in
him.

Half an issue?
Yesterday the Student Government Association
Summer Legislature again demonstrated the SGA's
characteristic attitude toward campus publications by
voting to reduce the summer budget request of "The
East Carolinian by 10 percent.
SGA treasurer Gary Gasperini was responsible for
requesting the 10 percent decrease from the Executive
Budget Committee's approved figure. During the course
of debate over the reduction, Gasperini indicated that
he felt that such a request was reasonable; indeed, by
removing $575 from "The East Carolinian" budget
appropriation, the financial solvency of the SGA would
be assured throughout the summer.
He argued that since the $11,000 budget for second
session of summer school was merely an estimate that
could vary as much as $3,000 a budget cut was
necessary to insure that the SGA would remain solvent.
As usual, publications received the first-and this
time, the only reduction in budget.
During the heated debate, Gasperini indicated that
he, for one, hadn't the slightest sympathy for the
financial situation of "The East Carolinian The
important thing was to save the SGA from financial
embarrassment resulting from over appropriation.
The fact that the deleted sum would serve, in part, to
pay the salaries of "The East Carolinian" staff did not
seem to matter. It also did not matter that these same
staff members work upwards of 20 hours a week, on the
average, to provide the campus with the quality of news
coverage that it deserves. Nor did it matter that staff
members are paid less, per hour, than members of the
Peace Corps (who were, at last estimate paid
approximately 11 cents per hour).
Regardless of the reduction, "The East Carolinian"
will continue to publish. Needed money for salary
increases will be appropriated from our advertising
revenue.
What it will mean for the student body is: fewer
pages, fewer stories, and less news coverage. Perhaps an
issue half the size of the present newspaper will allow us
to meet our financial responsibilities.
Meanwhile, the SGA continues to remain solvent.
The decline of the
University Party
People have been saying for years that the only
reason that ECU has two campus political parties is
that there are just not enough offices to go around.
The party system on this campus seems to have
followed that rule, with regularity, for the last several
years. Three years ago the chairman of the Student
Party resigned to help form the University Party and,
incidentally, to receive its vice presidential
nomination in the spring election.
Regardless of the verbal incongruity of the
"physical" connotations of the title "University
Party the party has served the student body
reasonably well since its rise to power two years ago.
True, there was no idealogical departure from the
tenets of its predecessor?now opponent. Party
platforms were and are-still designed for
appeasement and popularity. And, for those of you
who are interested, there is usually about a 70
percent carryover of platform promises from year to
year.
The strong showing of "independent" candidates
in this summer's election is indicative of a change in
political feeling on this campus. Students are no
longer willing to accept a party "product
The fact that Robert K. Adams' administration is
successfully fulfilling its platform will be remembered
in the fall election. Hopefully, a trend toward
independence in student government will continue.
Adams has clearly shown that you don't have to be a
party man to win an election?or to serve effectively.
The University Party has suffered a
severe ?possibly a killing-blow. Onry time, and
the winds of political fortune, will reveal the extent
of the damage.
As Biafrans starve
Thewar drags on
By WALTWHITTEMORE
As the Biafran civil war enters
its third year, the future seems
to be as dismal as the past has
been. Meanwhile, the world
looks on while countless people
continue to wonder when
something will be done to end
the tragedy.
Biafra is now better armed to
wage its war for independence,
but that offers little hope. There
is less territory to defend against
the federal troops. The
government is bankrupt. And, of
course, there are still many
mouths to feed.
A THOUSAND A DAY
Today, as many children die
as are born each month. And, no
end is in sight for the blood bath
which has raged since the Ibo
tribesmen seceded from Nigeria
in 1966.
For a short length of time,
limited amounts of aid reached
the people via a Catholic relief
organization. Then Red Cross
people began flying in assistance.
However, this did little to lower
the death toll of 1000 a day.
UNNECESSARILY TRAGIC
Everyone seems to agree that
the war is unnecessarily tragic.
Battlefield casualties not
withstanding, the 1.5 million
who have starved to death in the
past two years testify to the
horrible nature of the situation.
But the number of innocent
victims does not seem to have
been enough to overshadow the
politics of the situation.
Other than "moral support"
from the French, the people of
Biafra have little reason to
believe the world still cares if
children continue to starve. The
United Nations has never
acknowledged any cause for
alarm over the Nigeria Biafre
conflict. The United States and
Great Britain have allowed their
petroleum interests to
overshadow the significance of
widespread disease and
starvation.
What remains now is to see
how many more innocent
victims pay the price of an
unconcerned world.

To the Editor,
Do You Care?
The University Party would
like to extend its wholehearted
support to the East Carolinian
and the Student Government
Association in their Biafra drive.
We hope that each and every
student will donate to this
worthy cause. The extra few
days of hunger that is displaced
by your donation could mean a
child's life.
Please give,

ATTENTION ALL WOMEN
STUDENTS:
Recent questions in regard to
the dress code have necessitated
this clarification. Although it is
left up to individual professors
to decide on dress in their class
rooms, and the Dean of Women
informs me that students are
requested to wear shoes in all
administrative offices including
House Counselors' offices, there
is no rule regarding dress on
campus other than the dress
code. Since no cases regarding
the dress code have come up in
the Mens Residence Council
Court or in the Womens House
Council Courts, no
interpretation of the dress code
has been made.
THEREFORE, UNTIL SUCH
TIME AS A CASE COMES UP
BEFORE A STUDENT COURT
FOR AN INTERPRETATION
OF THE DRESS CODE, THE
DRESS CODE IS THE ONLY
GUIDELINE NOW IN
EXISTANCE REGARDING
DRESS' THERE IS NO
SPECIFIC RULE REGARDING
BARE FEET ON CAMPUS.
