July 4th celebrated
By WALT WHITTEMORE
Saturday's Honor America
) was more like a throe-ring
us than any old fashioned
celebration of Independence
Day. To the west again si a
Lincoln Memorial backdrop.
Billy Graham took time from
saving New York to remind us.
"God is on our side To the
extreme east the Smithsonian
Museum calmly honored the
state of Arkansas in the 4th
Annual American Folklife
Festival. And in between Bob
Hope remained oblivious to
missile-hurling dissidents
celebrating their own "Dishonor
America Day' proving that the
show must go on.
Despite the manner in which
news services reported
this July 4. the Jay was not the
celebration of unity Billy
Graham and Bob Hope had
promised Washington. D.C. That
this was so was obvious all day
long, from the banner taunting
Billy Graham which read, -hour
of Decision God OR
Country to the boos which
echoed whilst the Navy Band
played F. Scott Key's famous
composition.
The day is best characterized
as a small-scale representation of
the polarization within this
country. On the one hand, there
was the Billy Graham-Bob Hope
production. Their themes were
those many people had long ago
disavowed. The entertainers
tlmse made popular and
wealthy in another era and by
another generation. And. those
persons who mysteriously
obtained tickets to the
restricted seating area had an
aura about them which strongly
hinted of the Y.A.F the
D.A.R the V.F.W and the
American Legion. In short,
there was something very
"Republican" about the official
events.
On the other hand, there
were the irreverent dissidents
intent upon showing their
distaste, even contempt, for
American institutions. They
smoked marijuana on the
Washington Monument grounds.
They danced nude atop a truck
which they had overturned in
the reflecting pool. Thousands
chanted "One two. three, four,
we don't want your fucking
war" as Red Skelton tried to
recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
To many who had come to
"Honor America" there was
something frightening about
these thousands of sacriligeous.
long-haired heretics.
It was the contrasts which
created the air of absurdity

During the parade oi ' the

raised clenched fists and gave
"the finger" as the Washington

background.

'Hello Dolly' currently playing
,j??artfth?tnn8t V a nde reelder's two
By JAMES SLAUGHTER
One of the most colossally
successful musicals in stage
history, "Hello. Dolly opens
at the East Carolina Summer
Theatre Wednesday, July 8. for
an eleven-performance run
through the 18th.
The show that helped elect a
President when its title song was
amended to "Hello. Lyndon
in the first year of its run,
continued to draw thronged
audiences on Broadway for
more than five years after that
and to delight theatre-goers from
London to Tokyo and
Melbourne, to become one of
the long-run record-holders ot
all time.
Based by Michael Stewart on
Thornton Wilder's straight faice,
"The Matchmaker" and with
rousing songs by Jerry Herman.
"Hello, Dolly will have
Sally-Jane Heit. a Washington
D. C. native and one of the most
popular performers ever to
appear in Greenville, in its
central role of the nosey,
pushing, meddling, effervescent
marriagebroker with a
determination to match her
most eligible client to herself.
PLOT
Ken Eliot an actor-director
from Richmond, Virginia will
play the role of Wandergelder
her balky customer, who never
has a chance of escape a hay,
grain and feed merchant in
Yonkers. New York. The time is
the 1890's, when a hay and teed
store was the equivalent of a
filling station. A grouchy tellow
who tyrannizes his clerks.
Vandergelder has one
undeniable virtue in Dollys
eyes. He is "half a millionaire.

Declaration too radical
for most Americans
MIAMI (AP) Only one
person out of 50 approached on
local streets by a reporter agreed
to sign a typed copy of the
Declaration of Independence.
Two called it "commie junk
one threatened to call the police
and another warned Miami
Herald reporter Colin Dangaard:
-Be careful who you show that
kind ofantigovernment stuff to.
buddy
A questionnaire, circulated
among 300 young adults
attending a Youth for Christ
gathering showed that 28 per
cent thought an excerpt from
the Declaration was written by
Lenin.
The youths, mostly high
school seniors, were then asked
to describe briefly what sort of
perse .i they thought would
make such a statement.
Among other things, the
author of the Declaration was
called:
"A person oi' communism,
someone against our country
"A person who does not have
any sense of responsibility
"A hippie
"A red-neck revolutionist
"Someone trying to make a
change in government probably
for his own selfish reasons
Next Dangaard typed up the
Declaration in petition form,
stood all dav long on a sidewalk
and asked middle aged
passersby to read it and sign it.
Only one man agreed and he
said it would cost the pollster a
quarter for his signature.
Comments from those who
took the trouble to read the
first three paragraphs:
"This is the work of a raver'
"Somebody ought to tell the
FBI about this sort of rubbish
"Meaningless
"I don't go for religion.

From the president.
Illusions of today I Funds denied newspaper for rallies
By RANDALL MISHOE
Baptist Chaplain
We masquerade behind many
illusions, delaying the
acceptance of reality. Three
illusions in particular widely
deceive us today.
The first is the illusion of
"province In the Broadway
play Fanny, Marius reproaches
his father by saying, "You think
Marseilles is the center of the
earth And his old father
retorts, "It is. That is north,
that is south; that east, this
west. I am here the center
Such a narrow perspective has
always lurked beneath our petty
prejudices of race, class, group,
religion or nation. But the
pressed and rapid social change
within our culture today gives
vent to those old prejudices
which manefest themselves in an
acute provincialism.
TENSIONS ERUPT
It is no surprise then that
class tensions erupt in such
confrontations as that one in
early May between the
construction workers of New
York and the "long-hairs "My
country (read: group, race,
religion, etc.) right or wrong
It is difficult in such a
polarized context to confess a
need for one another. In fact, to
do so would be considered a
sign of weakness. But the need
for one another, for
"community is there at the
depths of existence, and that
need is real. Personal or group
independence and superiority as
a life style is an illusion and a
denial of our humanness.
'BEAUTIFUL LIFE"
The second illusion is that of
the "beautiful life As much as
I am repelled by the Dick Tracy
comic strip, I was still intrigued
by a quotation depicted on the
wall of B.O. Plenty's home:
"Lord, deliver me from the
Beautiful People Why?
Because they live the "beautiful
life and that is a mockery of
real life. The "beautiful life" is a
land of glittering gadgets,
financial success, social status,
reigning laughter, and idyllic
leisure. It is a climate where
romance blossoms and all foul
odors are eradicated with the
proper deodorant.
One trying to find that
particular Camelot discovers
that the journey leads only to
the never-never land of an
advertising agency. And
nowhere is there any place in
this illusion for suffering which
is all too real in life. Everyone
should know that if he has ever
cried out. "Why has this
happened to me?"
PAINFUL LIE
Finally, there is the illusion
of "living-happily-ever-after It
was a grand ending to our
childhood stories; it was a
painful lie in adolescence when
we learned it is not true. It was
so painful that we chose to cling
to the illusion and still do.
There is no greater illusion than
this, and our society guards it
zealously. We hide death in the
back pages of our newspapers,
in tranquil "gardens of rest
and in the cosmetics of our
funeral parlors. We are like Skat,
a character in Bergman's ' The
Seventh Seal Skat runs away
from some friends in a forest
where he climbs a tree, only to
look down and see Death sawing
the trunk. The dialogue runs as
follows:
Death: I'm sawing down your
tree because your time is up.
Skat: It won't do. I haven't
got time.
Death: So you haven't got
time?
Skat: No, I have my
performance.
Death: Then it's canceled
because of death.
Skat: My contract
Death: Your contract is
terminated.
Skat: My children, my
family.
Death: Shame on you, Skat.
Skat: Yes. I'm ashamed.
(Death begins to saw again.)
Skat: Isn't there any way to
get off? Aren't there any special
rules for actors?
Death: No, not in this case.
Skat: No loopholes, no
exceptions?
(Death saws. The tree creaks.)
Skat: Perhaps you'll take a
bribe.
(Death saws.)
Skat: Help!
(Death saws.)
Skat: Help! Help!
(The tree falls. The forest
becomes silent again.)
WHAT IS REAL
The purpose of these somber
reflections upon the illusions of
"province the "beautiful life
and "living-happily-ever-after" is
not to prompt despair at a time
when there is too much of that
already. The purpose is simply
to raise the question again of
what is real in our lives.
Assuming that education does
have to do with the liberating
and fulfilling of man's potential,
it is strange indeed that there is
no more place for a discussion
of the need for community, the
meaning of suffering, and the
reality of our lives. That is why
it would be most unfortunate if
one held on to his illusions
while "picking up a trade" in
the educational process.
By BOB WHITLEY
On Wednesday. July 1. the
Fountainhead staff submitted a
requisition for money to be
used to send two reporters to
Atlanta to cover the rock
festival and two reporters to
Washington, D.C. to cover the
Rally for America and the Pot
Festival. It should be pointed
out that they were
requisitioning money that had
already been appropriated to
them by the 1969-70
Legislature; however, these
requisitions must have the
signature and approval of the
SGA Treasurer. This is the
procedure we now have,
regardless of its shortcomings, it
is the one which should be
adhered to. I personally feel
that a publication should be
responsible only to the
Publications Board and not to
the Legislature. This has not
been changed yet; however, and
the present system is still in
existence.
D. C. AND ATLANTA
SGA Treasurer Steve Sharpe,
did not approve the requisition
and thus checks were not
written for the two trips to
Washington and Atlanta. He
consulted both Phil Dixon, the
SGA Vice-President. and me
about the matter, and we both
felt at that time that the
requisition should not have been
approved. Later I learned that
two staff members of the
Fountainhead were personally
financing the two trips. I talked
with them and the Executive
Council of the SGA and decided
that we should meet on
Monday, July 6. to discuss the
matter further. It was decided at
the meeting that the Executive
Council favored the approval of
a requisition that would pay for
the gas and food expenses of
one reporter to the Washington
Rally for America. We further
decided that there would be no
appropriations for the Atlanta
trip. The reasons for the
Executives Council's decision
are as follows: First, there were
three members of the
Fountainhead staff that were
already planning to go to
Atlanta and it would make
much more sense to pay these
students by copy inch for their
stories when they returned
rather than paying to send two
more reporters. Secondly, we
felt that the two rallies in
Atlanta and Washington would
be covered adequately by
national presses and that the
students of East Carolina could
benefit enough from these
releases. Thirdly, we felt that
not enough students at East
Carolina would be interested
enough in the two rallies to
warrant sending two on-the-spot
reporters. Fourthly, we felt that
the money the Fountainhead
was planning to use for the trips
could be spent more wisely on
such things as allowing more
copy in the newspaper. Fifthly,
although we wish to improve
and expand our newspaper as
much as possible (as evidenced
by our approval of sending a
reporter to the Washington
Rally) we feel like the scope of
our campus newspaper is not
wide enough to cover such
national events by on-the-spot
reporters.
Since the Legislature of the
SGA does not exist during the
summer, the Executive Council
assumes complete responsibility
for this decision. I shall report
in the fall to the Legislature of
the decision and the reasons
behind it.
RESPONSIBILITY
Perhaps the most important
reason that I cannot approve the
spending of this money goes
beyond the tangible ones
mentioned above. Along with
the honor and prestigue (sic)
inherited by the office of SGA
President, I have also inherited a
great amount of
responsibility.Your Student
Government Association spends
close to $400,000 of your
money through your student
activity fees. I feel that we
should be accountable for every
cent of this money and
furthermore that the spending
of this money to send four
reporters to the two rallies
mentioned above would not be
in the interest of the majority of
the students of East Carolina. I
hope those that disagree with
me and the Executive Council
on this decision will understand
our reasons and understand even
more our responsibility.
South Carolina poor face cut
WASHINGTON (AP)
Unless Congress acts quickly to
meet an impending funding
crisis, thousands of South
Carolina poor people may face a
sharp cutback in food stamp
allotments.
An emergency authorization
for a $160 million appropriation
was passed by Congress last
summer, but it expires June 30,
with the end of the fiscal year.
The 1970-71 appropriation of
$1.2 billion for food stamps is
bottled up in the House paper. The State, "the food
Agriculture Committee which stamp program will be
ftw, no signs of reporting the bankjupted ? o-
bill any time soon
Without House passage of the
food stamp bill by the end of
the month, the program would
revert to its former $170 million
level for the remaining six
months this year.
Sen. George McGovern,
D-S.D chairman of the Select
Committee on Nutrition and
Human Needs told a Columbia
by the end of August'
relief is found.
If Congress fails to act on the
pending appropriation for food
stamps, it could adopt an
emergency measure that would
permit the Department of
Agriculture to spend food stamp
money at the $1.2 billion rate
on a month-to-month basis until
authorization is adopted.

that they want more of a voice

The committee is well aware
of the fact that some local
boards, having trouble filling
their quotas draft youths with
physical and mental
inadequacies xnd sometimes
with severe personality and
character defects that doom
them to almost certain failure in
the Army "
PRISONERS
No specific figures were given
on how many young men majht
be in this category.
In its report released Monday
by the Pentagon, the panel
recommended the Army

identifying the unfit and

before they get into trouble.

The Great Library Scandal Revisited
By ROBERT SANDERS
Editor's note: The events in this
story are optional. Any resemblance
to persons living or dead is your own
fault.
It was the biggest scandal of
the year, bigger than the capture
of Dr. Thanbed, who had the
gall to check out half the books
in the Mathematics section of
the university library and carry
them out in his briefcase.
Ridicule. Ridicule! The veins
in Swindle Wiley's neck jerked
convulsively as his chin bobbed
up and down. His palms were
shaking again. Goddammit!
He drew himself up to his full
height, straining onto the balls
of his feet "Thief he shouted,
realizing that his voice was
cracking. "Thief he repeated
in a resonant soprano.
"1 don't believe youi story!
You weren't borrowing those
books for an article on book
theft for your feature-writing
class. Oh noooo you were
stealing those books, and you
know it Swindle Wiley
brought his fist down hard on
the top of his desk. He winced
as his hand bounced off a
paperweight
"No one steals 86 books from
my library and hides them in
the first-floor girls' bathroom.
No one gets away with that
He brushed aside her objection:
"Certainly you were stealing
them! Why if Mrs. Crumley
hadn't tripped over them on the
way to on the way to uh. if
Mrs. Crumley hadn't found
them you'd have gotten away
"You're part of a conspiiacy.
You're probably working for
the News and Observer. I know
what your purpose in doing this
was he added conspiritorially,
"It was to make us look like a
bunch of fools
"Why you probably started
that joke that my book didn't
make its second edition because
the xeroxing equipment in the
library broke down His white
moustache bristled crisply
against his burgandy cheeks.
"And the one that the library
had to close because BOTH of
its books were checked out
"And that professor of
yours he smiled knowingly.
"he s in o i it too. He's probably
told your whole class to steal all
the books from my library
"He won't get away with it.
I'll fix him. I'll have his pay
stopped. I'll pull his books off
the shelves. I'll he shook his
fist menacingly.
"And any pointy-headed,
liberal faculty member that
encourages such a thing WILL
BE fired. Anybody that says our
library's inadequate. he
caught himself going too far and
stopped in mid-sentence.
"Now get out he snapped.
"And tell your friends that they
can't get away with it His last
words were cut short when his
heavy office door with the
words "University Librarian" in
gold print on it swung shu
You ought to see a
psychiatrist he shouted to the
door.
Wiley slumped in his chair
and began thumbing through an
enormous pile of newspaper
clippings on the left side of his
desk. "The N.C. Press Views the
Ku Klux Klan 1966-70" he said
absent-mindedly to himself.
His intercom buzzed. "Mr.
Wiley his secretary said. "That
Dr. North of the English
Department the one you
don't like he's trying to use
the faculty xeroxing machine
again
"Stop him Wiley shouted,
his neck bulging with anger, as
he leaped from his chair and
stormed out the door "Stop

Currence dismissal
evokes student concern
By DAVID OVERMAN
Is it safe for an East Carolina
student to participate in a
n o n - v i o 1 e n t a n t i - w a r
demonstration? Just how much
academic freedom do we as
students have? Can one speak
out against the administration
without fear of repercussion?
Ben Currence. junior
chemistry major and a long time
leader of the "anti-war"
'anti-oppression" movement at
ECU must be asking himself
these questions and many more
these days. Two days after his
participation in the May 6
demonstration against the
Cambodian invasion and the
Kent State. Jackson State
"massacre he received a letter
from Dr. Albert Conley,
Director of the North Carolina
Leadership Fellows and ECU
business professor, informing
him of his dismissal from the
leadership training program of
which he had been a member
since Winter quarter of his
freshman year. When questioned
about Currcnce's dismissal.
Conley replied that he was
"actually doing Ben a favor"
and that "Ben really didn't lose
too much
INTERVIEW
The text of the letter implies
that the blame for Currcnce's
dismissal rests on the shoulders
of "the group which has
accepted you as their leader
However, no specific group was
mentioned.
In an interview with the
fountainhead. Currence stated
that the only activist group with
which he is associated is
SOULS, which had no part in
the May 6 demonstration.
although he is an ardent
supporter of CAP. The
following is a partial text ol the
interview conducted June 25 at
Currence's home in Greenville.
Fountainhead: What was
your initial reaction upon
discovering that you had been
dismissed from the Richardson
Foundation program9
Currence" At first I thought it
was a mistake that could be
straightened out. but when 1
found out he (Conley) wasn't
going to give any more reason
than what was in the letter 1 just
said "Cram it
DECISION
Fountainhead: This was not
the First demonstration in which
you had been a part, was it?
Currence: No. but this was
the first time 1 had ever
criticized Jenkins and the
administration on TV in such a
situation with all those people
out there.
Fountainhead: Do you think
Conley is personally responsible
for the decision to remove you
from the program?
Currence: Conley didn't do it
on his own. He was under
pressure from someone else.
Fountainhead: Who7
Currence: 1 can't tell you
that, but it's not like Conley to
do something like that. Eve
been in demonstrations before
and nothing happened, so Em
led to believe that he was
pushed a little bit
ALL'NIGGERS"
Fountainhead: By the higher
ups in the administration0
Currence: No comment. All I
can say is that it's the same kind
0f people who are fucking over
everyone else who is trying to
change our society, like the
Panthers. Chicago 8 etc. 1 could
get into a long rap about
repression, but you know all
about that.
Fountainhead: Did race have
anything to do with it?
Currence: No. not this time.
just general intimidation of
activists and radicals. We re all
"niggers-to them anyway.
Fountainhead: l? me

of activists at ECU0

Atlanta International Pop Festival The promotion in this .ase was more deceiving
than the non- odstock Woodstock Upstate New York whether it be Bethei
Woodstock is an area of rolling hills green farmlands and relatively small cities.
Max's farm near Bethel was typical of rural New York, an area naturally conducive
to a feeling of being dose to nature and your fellow man
Byron Georgia does not in an way resemble Atlanta. Georgia. The rural area of
Byron is largely flat, dry. tree-less and very, very hot It is not naturally beautiful
country particularly during July heat. The local citizens are not the tolerant sort.

THE BIKERS
Between the outer and inner fences roamed the other security force the bikers.
The bikers were in full uniform and battle dress, and never very tar fron ueirbig

bloody the observer continued.
Whose fault was it? "The bikers can't be blamed he said. "Their solution to a
pioblem is to pound it into the ground. Everyone knows this. Bikers aren't pigs.
They're not cops. They don't like cops anymore than we do the observer
concluded.

Why the bikers were hired hasn't been answered satisfactorily. Bikers usually
show up at festivals, and there usually isn't any trouble. There was at Altamont
when the Hells Angels were hired as security. There could have been trouble at
Atlanta. It seems rather contradictory to promote freedom on the one hand, and
then try and impose order by invoking fear.
Indeed, it seems that the festival promoters were more interested in imposing
order than in promoting freedom. All done, of course, in hip jargon. Steve Kapelow
was asked why people like Jerry Rubin and Abbie Hoffman were not invited to the
festival.
"I understand why they are militant. I understand the frustration they feel
towards straight society, but what they are saying is to tear down everything. That's
negative. What we want is positive action. We want all the energy created here to be
used constructively to build something
SECURITY FORCE
It all sounds good, but what Mr. Kapelow was actually doing was threatening the
audience with his security force, trying to intimidate them into paying to see the
bands, and then keeping certain segments of the hip community from being able to
speak up. If the festival had not been made free, the consequences of these actions
would have been worse than Altamont.
But the festival was made free, and was a success because of the people, inspite
of all the incredible hassles. The almost unbearable heat, the threat of bikers, the
concert delays, the mediocre sound system, the dust and dirt and overflowing
toilets, and the hostile inhabitants was enough to make this the biggest disaster ot
the hip movement. The fact that it wasn't disastrous but successful is proot that an
idyllic setting such as that at Woodstock, is not an absolute necessity tor a
successful festival.
REVOLUTIONARY SCENE
"This is the most revolutionary scene in America gurgled one enthusiastic-
chick from Washington, D.C. Well, yes and no. The scene was "revolutionary in a
cultural way. The people got together because they loved the music. Would halt a
million people have traveled to Byron, Georgia to hear hip political speakers preach
anti-establishment doctrine for three days? The hip movement has become
hopelessly splintered. The music is about the only thing left that can bring the
people together. At least we have the music.
COMPARISON
Jimi Hendrix, Mountain, Chambers Brothers, Allman Brothers, Johnny Winter,
Grand Funk Raihoad, and B. B. King to name a few, were there. Jethro Tull and
Ginger Baker cancelled their appearance.
At a festival, all the bands must be at their best musically. One big name follows
another, and because the audience has an opportunity to compare one against
another, those that do not perform well will loose touch with the audience.
Consequently, the music at Atlanta was of very high quality.
In particular B. B. King did an incredible blues set. Jimi Hendrix ran through a
set of his old tunes, apparently intent upon proving he was a master guitar player.
He proved it but his singing was not up to usual standards.
THUNDERSTORM
The Allman Brothers played during a thunderstorm Friday night. When I asked
them after their set if the storm bothered them, one of the Brothers said, "Yah -
sure did. People were screaming at us to stop and the lightening was all around, but
we had to finish. We thought we had to, anyway It was fortunate they did. Their
continued playing helped calm down the audience, preventing what again might
have turned into disaster.
Last year, an unknown group called Grand Funk Railroad made an appearance
at Atlanta. They have since become a big name in rock, and attribute much of their
success to the people at Atlanta's festival last year. This year, a virtually unknown
English group called Mott the Hoople appeared on stage late Sunday afternoon. It
was probably the worst possible time to appear. The audience had already heard
two and one half days of music.
The well known bands would not be on until after sundown and most of the
people were milling around talking to one another, trying to escape the heat, and
only listening to the music with partial interest. Before Mott the Hoople was half
way through their set. however, the audience was standing up, crowding the stage
and moving and clapping to the music. The audience wouldn't let them go The
stage announcer said there wasn't time for an encore, that Spirit and Johnny Winter
were coming up, but the crowd kept on screaming for more. They got what they
wanted, and I think that the people of Atlanta have "discovered" another big rock
The most humorous aspect of the three day festival was the local people who
rode out to the festival site to gawk at the hippies from a distance, of course, and
with car windows rolled up. Their most popular pastime seemed to be looking at
the nude bathers, and although they could be heard to be muttering "disgusting
under their breath it should be noted that they didn't turn away from the
"disgusting" sight, but kept their eyes glued on the subject matter at hand.

It was dusk by now and
I kept a watchful eye out on the sky
For bottles, sticks, and wash tubs
As they sailed through the air towards us.
The freaks were crazy and also
Very poor shots because
Half the trash they threw
Hit their brothers and sisters.
It made me think about freaks
Preaching peace ard not living it,
While the cops stood there and
Took a helluva lot of crap.
A small bomb exploded about 10 ft. from me
And my ears rang as the adrenalin shot through my body
It was so loud that even Bob Hope joked
"Now that was a pretty big firecracker
The patriots screamed at every freak
That was arrested and
The freaks kept throwing bottles.
And I watched in resigned disbelief from the middle.
Then came the fireworks and
Everything stopped happening for a while.
I guess the patriots were happy and
The freaks really stoned.
The sky exploded
As I waited for the final clash.
But it never came.
The fireworks ended and
The cops left the freaks
To occupy the grounds.
We tried to find Steve
But never did.
We lost him about 5 hrs. ago
And never saw him again that night.
We walked around and
Ran into an old. dear friend of mine
So we sat down, smoked a jay and
Rapped about this screwy day.
We decided that everyone out there that day
Was crazy as hell, and
That we were probably
The craziest.
Said our goodbyes.

And left D. C. as
Quickly as we came.

Because my camera wasn't the best and

MMCP stimulates new approach to music
The School of Music recently
concluded a two week
workshop in conjunction with
the federally supported
Manhattanville Music-
Curriculum Project (MMCP).
The workshop was
highlighted by a public
performance of original
compositions Thursday.
According to Dr. Ralph E.
Verrastro, faculty member and
coordinator of the workshop,
"MMCP is not a method of
teaching, but an idea. The
emphasis is on music. It is
concerned with the creative
aspects of the art and the
personal fulfillment to be
derived therefrom
Many of the MMCP strategies
are concerned with students
acting and behaving in a totally
musical way with the view that
music is an ever changing art
and that "treasured works" are
but part of a history which is
still being made today.
With this in mind, the
program is based on discovery.
According to Dr. Lionel
Nowack. conductor of the
workshop and pianist composer
and artist-in-residence. At
Bennington College "discovery
means first hand experience and
intrinsic involvement
CONTRAST
This approach is to be
contrasted to present practices
which rely on a knowledge of
music elements such as notes
and time values.
The program was started,
according to Verrastro. because
in the early grades students are

Cambodian Assessment

By JAMES HORD
Now that American combat
troops have been withdrawn
from Cambodia it is time to
assess and analyze the results of
that "excursion The most
immediate effect of the venture
is that the war in Indochina has
definitely been expanded.
Secondly, President Nixon's
"Vietnamization" program may
suffer some setbacks. And third,
the American people have been
sharply divided over this issue as
over no other one since the Civil
War.
WIDENED
The Indochina war has been
widened in the sense that the
Viet Cong have been pushed
from their sanctuaries near the
Vietnamese border to the whole
of Cambodia. In other words,
the Communists have now been
dispersed throughout Cambodia
as a result of the invasion of
their sanctuaries.
Reports by United Press
International on June 27 stated
that two northeastern
Cambodian provinces were now
under complete control of the
North Vietnamese and Viet
Cong. These two provinces
comprise approximately
one-sixth of Cambodia. Later
reports pointed out that the
communists had advanced

that as a result of American
and South Vietnamese actions

The South Vietnamese Army
(ARVN) has also moved into
Cambodia and has pledged to
"maintain a military presence"

both eager and anxious to
participate in musical activity.
By junior high school age,
however, music classes are
frequently problem classes. At
the senior high school, current
national estimates indicate that
a maximum of 20 per cent
participate in organized musical
activity.
At the present times many
students have little real interest
in the regular school music
program. They cannot be
creative, they must merely
copy. They spend most of their
time learning to understand
another person through his
music while never understanding
themselves. To them, music is
often unnecessary and
irrelevant, according to
Verrastro.
The idea behind this program
was to help the students to
understand themselves and

on indefinitely.
President Nixon's
Vietnamization program may
suffer some setbacks as a result
of the South Vietnamese Army
now fighting a war on two
fronts: the war in Vietnam and
the war in Cambodia With this
expansion of the war, it will be
increasingly difficult for the U.
S. Army to train and replace the
ill-equiped. ill-disciplined ARVN
to a level of competence needed
to fight the highly disciplined
North Vietnamese Army.
At home, the Cambodian
operation has divided polarized,
and split the American people as
no other issue has since the Civil
War. From the killings of the
four Kent State students to the
hawkish cries of the
Administration supporters, the
Cambodian incursion has raised
the tempo of dissent in this
country, and the so-called
"silent majority" has become
not-so-silent.
In short, it may be said that
the Cambodian adventure ha.
had a negative effect on the
course of the war and has
increased dissent. The war in
Indochina has been widened and
may soon engulf all of
Southeast Asia; the President's
war-making powers have been
directly challenged by Congress;
and the American people have
been split down the middle over
this issue. All of this does not
bode well for the future of a
democratic nation.
By GERALD ROBERSON
Well it has finally happened.
Dean Mallory's "divine right"
to determine the future of each
and every fraternity on campus
has shown another sparkling
beam of illumination on the
Greek scene.
Yes. with a few turns of the
telephone dial Dean Mallory
single-handedly destroyed the
plans for one fraternity's
summer orientation for the
incoming freshmen men.
But through some quirk of
fate, the ordeal has turned out
in favor of the ECU
Interfraternity Council as a
whole.
How our Dean of Men could
have known the wisdom of his
decision at that time is beyond
this writer.
Maybe it is only for the
"divine" to know.
IFC DECISION
This single fraternity's plans
were immediately brought to
the attention of the IFC and the
council decided it was favorable
to serve beer, after others
maliciously condemned that
fraternity for planning to have a
keg on its own for the freshmen.
What befuddles me most is
why Craig Souza, the present
IFC President turned down a
previous approach from a
member of the Pan-Hellenic
Council for the two Greek
organizations to work together
this summer and next fall for
"rush
It might be also noted that
the vice-president of the IFC
had to call a meeting concerning
IFC orientation for freshmen
instead of Souza, who didn't
even show for the meeting.
RENEWED SPIRIT
Even so, with a renewed
enthusiasm, perhaps the Greek
men are about to get off their
buttocks and continue to grow
in spite of the blunders of a few
COL SAHDCRS' PICIPI
and despite the single-minded
slanders of my colleagues.
POLITICS AGAIN
North Carolinians are talking
politics again.
Already, with the off year
elections still to go, many are
looking forward to the 1972
governor's race:
Since Jim Gardner managed
to talk himself out of the
governor's mansion and into the
Greensboro Coliseum, voters are
asking themselves who will unite
the growing Republican forces.
What about the Democrats,
after what has been termed by
some as a mediocre term so far
by Robert Scott.
In the next few paragraphs
this writer will attempt to make
a few predictions with a glimpse
at possible strategies.
The final primary counts will
designate Mel Broughton and
Leo Jenkins as the nominees for
governor.
Broughton on the GOP ticket
and Jenkins on a Democratic-
Here is how it "might"

Holhouser for the Republican
nomination after Broughton
finally realized he could never

and switched parties.
Broughton also carried much

Democratic membership and
money with him to the
Republicans.
Across the line on the
Democratic side Robert Morgan
was the deciding factor in the

Fountainhead
holds survey
of freshmen
By BECKY NOBLE
Members of the
Fountainhead staff conducted a
random sample survey of the
first of six orientation programs
for incoming freshmen.
The initial question proposed
to each interviewee dealt with
Nixon's recent "decree" on the
abolition of draft deferments.
Responses were almost
unanimously against the
President's decision, while one
student said the action was
"good
Secondly, we asked about the
18-year old vote. Answers
ranged from, it came "too late,

SGA officials attempt
to control news coverage
(Continued from page 16)
perhaps the Washington story was newsworthy
(perhaps because they agreed with the Honor
America events), but no money was given to the
Atlanta trip. The newspaper was finally allowed to
spend about $55 of its own money for the
Washington trip, but the Atlanta trip was still
considered to be of no value to a college paper, so no
money was allowed to be spent.
Such events as the two mentioned above, which
are reported by Fountainhead reporters from the
scene on pages 8-11, are very important to the young
of this nation, if to no one else. And the Honor
America Rally is certainly of great importance to
those who are not among the youth of the country.
For the two persons involved in this holdup of funds
to judge the importance of such national news events
and then to withhold money from a newspaper
because they do not agree that the events should be
reported in a college paper simply shows the
simplicity of their minds.
It is also a great infringement on that freedom of
the press which all publications should enjoy. When
the news that goes into student publications can be
manipulated by two people, one a student and the
other a faculty adviser, a dangerous situation is
incurred. Prior censorship of a publication by the
manipulation of funds is a powerful weapon, but one
that does not have any place in a democratic system.
For the SGA to appropriate funds to the
newspaper and then to turn around and withdraw
those funds because of the whims of two persons, in
an academic community of some 5,000, is stretching
control of a free press to absurd limits. It is the
purpose of a newspaper to report the news, and this
cannot be done if two people outside of the
newspaper staff are able to control the content of the
material that goes into a paper.
No newspaper can exist for long if another body is
allowed to censor it. This newspaper is not an
exception to that rule. The press must not be
manipulated. The facts must be reported and
analyzed and then, and only then, can we live up to
our slogan: kAnd the truth shall make you free

We further inquired about the

All freshmen interviewed said
that the U.S. should get out and
"it is none of our business

SYMPATHETIC
Our last question was a query
about student radicals and the
New Left. Specifically, could
they, as freshmen, envision
themselves as participants of
leftist activities? The majority
of those interviewed said that
they could "sympathize with
some of the actions of radical
groups but probably would
not care to become an "active

CONTINUED INTERVIEWS
One student, who claimed to
have conservative proclivities,
was asked if he felt there was a
strong communist influence
within the rank-and-file of
leftist oriented organizations.
He responded by claiming
that "communism is so deep
rooted in America today that it

These interviews were the
result of picking individuals out

questions.
Interview articles of this
nature will continue following
each Orientation group that
comes onto the campus. At the
end of Summer School,
Fountainhead will compile all
the interviews into one column
in order to gain a representative
sample of student thought.

manner as the newspaper thinks will best benefit the

In the spring of this past school year, the
legislature approved a $6,000 appropriation to the
Fountainhead for summer expenses. This money as
supposedly then under the control of the newspaper
officials and could be spent by them in such mannei
is thtt thought would most benefit the newspaper,
and through it. the students lhe SGA. ol course,
because they had appropriated the money, had to
retain some control over the money, so the included

Until this time, the newspaper has never had any
problem with the SGA not approving then discretion
in the expenditure of such funds. But now that body-
has decided that sending reporters to cover such
nationally important events as the smoke-inHonor
America (lav in Washington. DC. and the Atlanta Pop

Fountainhead should not spend its own money to
send reporters to these events.
After making this arbitrary value judgment, the
SGA- Student Fund Accounting spokesmen notified
Fountainhead that it could not spend its money for
that purpose. This notification came on Friday just a
few hours before the four reporters (two to each
destination) were scheduled to leave. This denial of
funds could have easily censored any stories
Fountainhead could have gotten had the Editor and

Dear Editor:
I found your articles
concerning the Greek system in
your June 22 edition very
interesting and must agree with
much o what was said. 11"s true
that the Greeks must change
many of their concepts to tit in
with the changing life style and
1 believe most are trying to do
just that. After being away from
the campus during the past
academic year I've returned this
summer to find bare feet, long
hair bell-bottoms. T-shirts ami
beads among Greeks who once
dressed strictly "vogue" One
year ago I was reading criticisms
in your paper about that
"vogue" style of dress and now
now I read criticism of this
new "hip" style I find all this
attention towards the Greeks
quite amusing especially when
most of it is coming from
people whose n liberation, or
life style, is exactly
contradictory to that ol the
Greeks If this life style and
mode of thinking is so much
better that the Greek and the
"hip" life can lend to greater
things WHY I wondei
WHY .h they spend their "hip'
time judging the Greeks'
One article in that issue
particularly struck my funny
box It seems Penny Bennett is
quite enthused with hei "hip"
friends and hei 'hip sell
Penny went to great lengths in
her Opening sentences to prove
to the readers that she is
definitely "hip bv throwing
out a Dylan hei and a Baez
there The plot seemed to
thicken when Penny threw a
new one at us GREEK
FREAK I' seems the Greeks are
dressing -freaky' in order to be
cool "Not that they would puft
any pot or lick any of them acid
cubes or bust an heads over
politics Penny says. Miss
Bennett leads the reader to
believe that the Greeks are
trying to tie on the coolness the
heads have long had and that
the only way to do this is by
mutating their dress with the
money that Daddy gives them
(Perhaps Miss Bennett is
working her way through
college, but I doubt if this is
true of all the "hip people is it
Miss Bennett) finally we learn
that cool could be "espousing
the causes of freedom and
rights, and caring about the
individuality of others Ah yes,
Penny caring about the
individuality of others lhe
freedom and right for anyone to
dress as he or she wishes and
most ol all their individuality. It
seems to me Greeks are
individuals with freedom and
rights and should be able to
dress any way they please
without "hip" Penny Bennett or
anyone else writing letters about
them Remember Penny
FRIT DOM AND RIGHTS
Since Penny Bennett is the
campus dictionary on "cool
and "hip I would like to ask
her a few questions I wonder if
smoking pot and dropping acid
and 'busting heads" makes one
"hip"? I wonder if clothes make
the man' I wonder if cutting
people down is "cool1
wonder if to split the
student body a arl is"cool"?B
freedom rights, and the
individuality ol a person i
important then why don't you.
