Schofield calls for disbandment
Transit
John Schofield, serving as a
Summer School Legislator,
submitted a motion dunmg
Tuesday's meeting to abolish the
Summer School SGA.
When asked why he made the
motion, Schofield said, "Since
our annual budget will be nearly
$400,000 next fall, we have got
to have continuity in order to
become a more efficient and
effective organisation. To
become more business like, I feel
it a dire necessity to have a
twelve month term for the SGA
Executive officers
To his knowledge Schofield
said that ECU was the only
school in North Carolina! with
an SGA that has two separate
governments.
He listed three reasons why
the dual government system has
been highly inadequate in the
past.
Firstly, after the regular term
officers ar installed in April,
they are in office only two
months before summer school
begins. Also, it takes three weeks
of the first session to elect the
Summer School officers, during
which time there are no elected
officials in office.
Secondly, there is not enough
time for the Summer School
officers to implement
meaningful programs during the
remaining eight weeks. If a
twelve month term were in
effect the President could use
the summer to work on his
personal program as well as get
ahead in his academic work in
order to lighten his class load foi
the upcoming year.
Lastly, neither the summer
school legislature nor the regular
term legislature can pass bills
thai would effect the others
term. In other words, the
legislation that is passed by
summer school legislature effects
only summer school students
Likewise, the tegular term body
cm only pass bills that would
concern fall, winter, and spring
quartei students.
Aftei confering with the SGA
President at North Carolina
State University, it was learned
that the twelve month term has
worked quite well there for
three years.
Said Schofield, "In my
opinion two separate budgets,
two sets of SGA Executive
officers, and often differing
policy definitely breeds
inefficiency in our SGA
The motion was sent to the
Rules Committee for one week
for more consideration.
According to John Schofield,
tegular term SGA president,
final arrangements have been
completed for the fall Transit
System. A meeting between
Schofield, Roberl Deaton,
Assistanl General Managei of
Raleigh City Coach Lines, and
F.D. Duncan, Vice1 President and
B usi n ess Managei of t he
University, has been set for
Monday, August 4, at which
time tin; final contract will be
signed. The two bus system will

Algae, the dominant iivir.q
organisms in rivers and sounds of
Eastern North Carolina, are to

cattle, according to nr. Vincent
Bellis who is an ECL biologist.
Bellis, with the , id of an
$8,000 grant from the IM.C.

Institute, will conduct research
"concerning the relationship
between water quality in the
Pamlico River and the relative
abundance of microscopic
algae
Although the plants are
usually too small to be seen
without magnification, Dr. Bellis
says, they are usually present in
tremendous numbers, "often
several million in a cupful of
water
Because they are small and
grow rapidly, algae maintain
themselves in the river despite
heavy grazing by fish and crabs
which share that environment.
So vital is their maintenance, "As Eastern North Carolina
Dr. Bellis says, that algae "from grows in industry and

then do algae eat7 Here again the
algae are of great economic

explains.

GEOFFRF. CHAPMAN TA LKS to a reporter concerning
an upcoming campus event.
By SONNY McLAWHORN
The Bureau of News and
Public Relations is a very special
part of East Carolina University.
Its task, to improve
communications between the
academic community and the
general public, is a vital
instrument of this flourishing
university.
In the bureau's 24-year
history, the operation has
expanded from one English
professor, working part-time, to
a full staff of fice employees and
s ev eral part t ime student
workers.
Dr. Mary Greene was the first
director of the News Bureau.
One of East Carolina's most
beloved teachers. Dr. Greene
served from 1945 to 1963, when
she returned to the faculty on a
full time basis.
Henry Howard came to East
Carolina in 1963 as full-time
director of News and Public
Relations. Howard played an
instrumental role in publicizing
the need and readiness of East
Carolina to become a university.
Geoffrey Chapman, who
assumed the post of assistant
JANE KEELER LOCATES an eastern county on the
North Carolina map.
director in June 1968, has been
in charge of the operation since
Howard's departure earlier this
month.
Chapman praised Howard's
efforts in the drive for university
status: "A good deal of the
support for President Jenkins'
original proposal was due to
Howard's work as an excellent
publicist
Howard enlarged the scope of
the News Bureau to serve a
growing institution. The bureau
staff was gradually enlarged to
its present size, and additional
office space was found, as the
offices were moved from the
cramped quarters of Rawl
Building to a more spacious
arrangement in Erwin Hall. A
photography laboratory was
added in June.
During the regular academic
year, the News Bureau mails out
a minimum of 200 pieces daily.
Receiving this distribution are
newspapers, the wire services,
radio and television stations,
periodicals and various
individuals.
COMMUNICATION
Chapman offers a simple
explanation of the bureau's
function to communicate.
"Regretfully hesaidthe
emphasis of thi media is too
often upon quantity rather than
quality
Adding to the problem of
quality in representing the
campus to the public is a
misunderstanding of the
bureau's function. "We are not a
publicity organ of any special
interest explained Chapman.
The News Bureau turns out
an average of six releases per
month concerning research
grants to the university or
indivisual professors. "These
stories have traditionally been
routine si ad Chapman,
"because the information we
receive from the individual
involved in many cases is not
translatable in layman's terms
Thus, the bureau is reduced to
reporting such non-essentials as
the individual's age, his
hometown, etc.
AN EXCEPTION
Occasionally, however, news
of this sort arrives in an unusual
package - plain English.
Recently a professor received a
grant for scientific research on a
matter of vital interest to the
people of Eastern North
Carolina. Chapman received a
detailed letter of explanation
which clarified the scientific
jargon in the original source.
This letter simplified the
bureau's task to relay
information to the public.
In a brief explanatory note,
the instructor observed: "The
public, who support these
projects, don't care where I went
to school or when I joined the
faculty or what my wife's
maiden name is
Internal communication is
under-developed, according to
Chapman, as a result of time and
manpower limitations, therfore
the operation has concentrated
upon the "external public
Plans for the future include
the publication of a newsletter.
Its primary purpose will be to
develop a strong internal
communication link, but it will
be distributed statewide. A pilot
edition is slated for August.

scientific research projects to the
daily campus life of a student
Vitality is the clue to the
bureau's success. It is perhaps
best expressed by the simple

Physics Department opens workshop
)E a refreshing change
An undergraduate workshop
has been opened by the ECU
Physics Department. It's purpose
is to teach prospective secondary
school teachers physics
presentation procedures in the
classroom and laboratory.
WORKSHOP'S PROGRAM
The workshop's program is
divided into three sections:
1. Curriculum study, allowing
the student to examine
representative samples of all
available curriculum.
2. Lab experimentation and
lecture, giving the student
pointers on forming lectures end
demonstrations, with each
student presenting
demonstrations during the
course of the workshop.
3. Lab management, dealing
with the actual running of a lab
and showing the student how to
select materials, acquire sepplies,
analyze cost, and construct
laboratory apparatus.
NSF GRANT
The project, supported by the
National Science Foundation
through a grant to the Physics
Department, is directed by Dr.
J.W. Byrd, chairman of the
Department of Physics.
Each student receives $60 for
each of the insuing six weeks, is
accredited five hours toward his
undergraduate degree, and takes
part in the workshop's field trips
to Washington, D.C Greenbank,
Va. and several local high
schools, to examine physics
teaching problems and
procedures.
Other professors involved in
the workshop are Dr. Carl Adler
Dr. Robert Dough and Dr. R.M
Helms
THREE COURSES
The workshop was designed
primarily for elementary
education majors and consisted
of three seperate courses of
storytelling, nonbook materials,
and reading guidance for
children combined into one unit.
East Carolina's first Library
Science Workshop proved to be
a tremendous success to both
the Library Science Department
and students participating in the
program.
Held in Joyner Library, the
class lasted six hours each day
for the first three weeks of
Summer School, earning a total
of nine hours credit for
participating students.
The purpose of the workshop
was to provide an opportunity
for teachers and librarians to
work on or renew their
Certifications. It was held as a
workshop rather than a class to
economize time and money in
the short session, and allow for
concentration in specific
courses.
COMPLEX DUTIES
The workshop introduced the
students to the complex duties
and obligations of a librarian, or
"the way librarians speak as
one student put it.
Programs for the workshop
included discussions, book
presentations, records, tapes,
films and speakers.
Maxim Tabory, a Hungariar
student, presented a Hungariar
folktale to the Storytelling class,
in which each student was
required to present a folktale for
his final examination.
The Reading Guidance for
Children studied both
illustrators, and award winning
books selected from Catdecott
Medal Winners.
CLASS CONGENIALITY
Students in the workshop
agreed that part of the success
was due to the congeniality of
the class and the understanding
of their teacher, Mrs. Everett.
Many of the students said
that they had come closer to the
people in this class than in any
other class they had been in.
VARIETY OF BACKGROUND
With the wide variety of
backgrounds, students felt tha.
they had enriched each other's
experiences. Although the work
was found to be hard and
demanding, they found the
course valuable and well worth
the effort.
The Library Science
Department and Mrs. Everett
hope after this success to have
another workshop next summer.
Whereas this course was designed
for the elementary education
majors, Mrs. Everett hopes to
have another workshop for
secondary education majors.
Mrs. Frances B. Ever
conducted the Workshop.

Vogues prefer college crowds
THE LIGHTS DIMand the Vogues prepare for another song.
By DAVE ITTERMANN
The Vogues are all-around
entertainers plus being warm,
friendly people. They all hail
from Pittsburg, Pa.
The four of them all grew up
together, which explains their
relationship like a family instead
of an entertaining group.
They've been together 10 years
and have covered nearly 200,000
miles, taking them from coast to
coast.
While talking with them in
their dressing room I learned
they prefer working colleges and
try to cater to the college
student's taste. They feel this is
where their popularity and the
big money lies. They also had
some interesting views on
entertaining in the South. "Very
little disorder, more harmony, a
very friendly atmosphere? and
the hospitality is much better
than in other parts of the
country.
Last Thursday night they
performed to a "standing room
only" house bringing people to
their feet with past favorite
tunes like "Turn Around, Look
at Me They feel that they
reach all age groups with their
sound and attribute their success
to this.
All of The Vogues are
married and dislike the one
phase of show business that
keeps them away from their
wives and children ? traveling.
But they did say that traveling
enabled them to see parts of the
U.S. that normally they
wouldn't have seen.

More than 200 junior and
senior high school students from
throughout North Carolina and
the Atlantic Seaboard Friday
completed activities in the 16th
annutl Summer Music Camp at
ECU.
Sponsored by the ECU
School of Music, the camp
hosted a staff of ECU
idministrators, music faculty,
Student! and many leading high
school band directors and fine
arts teachers.
Pot 12 days the enrollees
participated in major activities in
band, piano and choir; and
minor activities in stage bands,
ensembles and art. They also
received instruction in arranging,
conducting, composition theory
and music styles.
The program, according to
camp director Herbert L. Carter,
was designed to provide the
students a well rounded
aesthetic musical background.
During their stay at ECU, the
students lived in campus
dormitories and participated in
many campus activities.
Highlights of the camp were
concerts by the three main
student bands and three choirs,
and by a stage band. A concert
Friday night officially concluded
the two weeks of activities.
A sixth year program
providing an additional year of
study for supervisors in public
education has been approved for
'he East Carolina University
School of Education.
Approved by the State Board
of Higher Education, the
program has already been
initiated this summer.

new program.
According to Dr. Brimley, the
program is open to supervisors
who have supervisor certificates
and masters degrees in
supervision.
Dr. Brimley said the program
complements a similar program
for principals and
superintendents which has been
in effect since 1965.
Completion of the new
program will qualify supervisors
for the advanced supervisors
certificate issued by the State
Department of Public
Instruction.
Application for admittance
will be made to the graduate
school. Required is a minimum
of 45 quarter hours of credit
beyond the master, degree.
w Students attending college
undei the Gl Bill this summer
,ne reminded that they must
return their Certification of
Attendance card to the Veterans
Administration during the last
full month of every enrollment
period, including the summer
session.
Failure to do so will cause
payment to stop since VA
computers are programmed to
prepare checks only after
Attendance cards are received.
W.R. Phillips, Manager of the
Winston-Salem VA Regional
Office, said the VA also urges
any student who did not return
his Certification of Attendance
card at the end of the spring
semester to do so as soon as
possible to insure renewed VA
payments this summer or when
he goes back to school in
September.
While veterans attending
college under the Gl Bill must
return their Certification of
Attendance cards during the last
full month of every enrollment
period, veterans attending school
below the college level must
return their Attendance cards
every month.
Veterans who have questions
about their status or who intend
to enroll for the first time this
fall are urged to contact their
nearest Veterans Administration
Office.

W Thirty high school biology
teachers from across the state
completed a six week curriculum
study materials institute under a
grant from the National Science
Foundation.
Purpose of the institute was
to prepare teachers for using
certain biological science
curriculum study materials. The
teachers were presented the
latest concepts in biology
through lectures, experiments,
discussions and field trips.
Dr. Carolyn H. Hampton of
the ECU science education
department, institute director,
said the participants have had
the experience of actually
carrying out experiments and
using teaching materials that
they will use in their classrooms
next year.
The project will also include
nine follow up sessions during
the coming school year to
permit teachers to discuss
immediate problems they may
encounter and to evaluate their
progress.
Teachers completing the
institute received nine quarter
hours of academic credit.

fldams says 'reading day not feasible
By ROBERT K ADAMS
As is most of the life on this
campjs during the summer, the
Student Government
Association also hasn't got that
much to do. We are not
preoccupied w ith forming new
political idealogy nor are we
overrun with physical changes.
Last week there was a
committee set up to study the
possibility of having either a
reading day during exams or two
days for exams for this summer
session. After a conference with
Dr. Holt and Dr. Williams, it was
found out that in order to be
accredited, we must attend
school a certain number of days
and there is no room on the
college calendar for even one
more day, therefore, there can
be no e. .ension of exam periods
or implimenting of reading days
this session.
I spoke to a few of the
freshmen orientation groups last

It seems that most young
people today, when entering

responsibilities to themselves MM
their responsibilities to their

trend of thought tovvaid a more
understandable view about both
these responsibilities.
As we all know, East Carolina

academically. As students at
East Carolina at this time, we
must benefit ourselves and those
that come after us by making a

Summer SGA useless
A step in the right direction was taken today when
John Schofield introduced an amendment to the
Summer School Constitution that would repeal the
entire document.
The practice of having two separate governments at
ECU is an anachronism from our days as a normal
school.
There is no practical reason for splitting the term ot
the regular term president by three months and in the
interregna installing someone who can be no more than
a caretaker. Student government here is so complex that
by the time the president has fully learned the extent of
his functions it is time for him to leave office.
The-e are many valid reasons for the passing of this
motion. The main one is continuity. A prime example
of this occured this session.
The Board of Trustees approved the increase of
activity fees to cover the campus transit system in the
last part of May. It was impossible for bids to be
requested for the system until after the regular president
was temporarily out of office. When the bids came back,
who was going to accept them? The summer school
president was not empowered to do so as his term does
not include the period that the transit system will be
effective. The regular term president was not in office.
The regular president needs the three relatively
tranquil months of the summer to plan and consolidate
his program for the coming year. He also must be in
posession of his office in order to be able to see those
who wish to see him, and to prevent confusion from
arising as to who someone interested in dealing with the
SGA should see.
Finally comes the matter of campus law. With two
systems of government, there must exist two systems of
law. In the past when reforms were needed the
Legislature has found itself stymied by the fact that
although they can change something that effects most
of the students, a small minority will not be touched.
The best example of this is the Bill of Rights which does
not apply in the summer.
The expression, "This town isn't big enough for the
both of us may not apply, but the idea that this
university is too big for the confusion that two student
governments create certainly does.
Politics of space
The shameless political exploitation of the Apollo 11
flight soiled an atmosphere of unqualified scientific
success with the petty rivalries of partisan maneuver.ngs
for publicity.
No one took more advantage of these publicity
opportunities than President Richard Nixon. And no
one was more out of place.
If Nixon's record of support for the space program is
juxtaposed with the partisan benefits he gained from the
news coverage of the event, little justification can be
found for the prominence Nixon enjoyed as a
participant in the television coverage of Apollo 11.
Nixon's record in support of the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration's programs is
erratic at best. In 1960 when the Apollo program was in
its crucial formative stages, then presidential candidate
Nixon hesitated to endorse the goal of the Apollo
program of putting a man on the moon before the end
of the decade. In fact, he defended the policies of the
Eisenhower administration which ruled out manned
flights to the moon in the "foreseeable future
The fact that Apollo 11 landed on the moon in 1969
is adirect result of the unequivocal support of President
John F. Kennedy and his successor Lyndon Johnson to
comprehensive space programs. It is safe to assume that
if Nixon had been elected in 1960 there would have
been no Apollo 11.
As one critic has already pointed out: "The plaque,
the phone call and the trip to greet the returning heroes
all were benefits Nixon inherited rather than earned
This objectionable opportunism indicative of the
vintage Nixon is beginning toeat away the facade of the
"new Nixon Apollo 11 succeeded despite Richard
Nixon; it is indeed ironic that he should benefit from it.

Dear Editor,
The money spent on the

clinic.
Toby Cobb
To the Students of East Carolina:
On Tu day, July 29, I
introduced a constitutional
amendment in the legislature,
which would in effect declare
the Summer School SGA
Constitution null and void. I
must receive a 23 vote in the
legislature and must pass a
student referendum by majority
vote. I would like to take this
opportunity to explain why I
introduced this amendment.
In the fall, the regular term
SGA budget will be approaching
$400,000. To handle such a
large sum, we must have an
efficient governmental
organization. I believe the only
practical means of obtaining this
goal is to have the executive
officers elected next April to
serve a 12 month term of office.
Through the years, the
regular term SGA has greatly
increased its prestige and
authority. It has become a body
that all of you can have a great
deal of pride in. However, in the
years past, this has not been the
case with the Summer School
SGA. Through no fault of :ts
own or of its officers, the
Summer School SGA has
become inefficient. There is not
enough time during the summer
to accomplish many meaningful
and lasting programs.
Due to the fact that the
Summer School SGA has its own
constitution, East Carolina has,
in effect, two separate student
governments. We are the only
major school in the state that
can claim this dubious honor.
I ask that you consider this
important amendment. Even
though it may not affect you
directly, the Student
Government does play a vital
part in your campus life and you
owe it to yourself to have the
best SGA possible.
Sincerely
John Schofield

student government this summer
has struck a blow for Duncan
Hines by clearly stating his
position on the Torpedo

crowd in the soda shop. A friend
of his purchased one of these
toothsome tidbits and was
warned thusly: "Beware friend

THE GREAT TREK
Something that began during
the spring of 1968, seems to be
moving on with unquenched
speed. A great migration appears
to be taking place among the
members of the business
department. According to
several people majoring in this
area, it is many of the
outstanding professors and
teachers who are seeking the
good life elsewhere. If a
disappearing act is in order, why
not get rid of the dead weight
instead of having the good ones
head for greener hnds of
academe?
DOUBLE BUBBLE
The famed double standard
of life at East Carolina has
certainly not taken a vacation
this summer. Not only must a
day student contend with a lack
of parking spaces, he must now
fight early rising staff members
who are parking in the day
Students spaces. Nothing is done
about this situation, because our
virile bastions of campus law and
order always seem to be looking
the other way. However, any
day students who venture into
the staff area are quick to
discover the swiftness of ECU
justice. We do not ask for
miracles, all that is necessary is
to have the parking tickets fall
equally on both sides of the
fence, each individual (staff and
student) will do the rest.
ROLL OVER NEHRU
If anything exists in this
country that would make
friendly India go to war with us,
it is located in the ECU
bookstore This foul object is
one of the most outrageous
Nehru jackets on the face of the
earth. The jacket itself looks like
it was taken from an old railroad
engineer doing a commercial for
Green Gullet chewing tobacco.
Topping this atrocity off is "yea
ole school emblem" in
prominent display over the left
breast pocket. My journalistic
pen is tipped in honor of the
man who hoaxed the bookstore
into buying these tormented
threads.
ALL FOR 23 OFF
Not far behind the Nehru
jackets, in gaudy profusion
comes the groovy, semi hippie,
surrealistic, machine washable
ECU medallion. The tackiness of
the madallion is further
enhanced by a genuine Tort
Feaser compass built into the
back. But wait friends, this isn't
the end. For not one penny
more, you can get a medallion
that opens up and reveals a
darling picture of Cadet General
Billy Lungbuster of the ECU
ROTC contingent
NAME GAME
After over a year of being
one, I'm glad to see East
Carolina acting like onea
university that is. However there
is still a small but powerful
faction on campus thai would
like to see the name of our
school changed once more. This
group has come up with a rather
clever name for East Carolina.
The projected name for our
school is UCLA which is short
for University of Chocowinity
and Lower Ayden. Unto each his
own
BUT SHE'S 21!
This bit was written as a
means of throwing the
housemothers of ECU into a
further freny. Passing by
Greene dorm last night I saw a
couple about to place themselves
in an anatomical juxtaposition
of two orbicularis muscles in the
state of contraction. This should
send a few of you to the library
tonight.
