cent or about $12 million according to a 1968 Land Utilization and Marketability Study done for the Greenville Redevelop- ment Commission by Francis Scott Key of Atianta.
In the 1968 study, Key estimated that by the year 1975, just a few days away, the student population at ECU would be “generating $15,000,000 in retail sales.”
Key pointed out that this total of $15,000,000 “is exclusive of fees, college tuition and other factors that are attributed to campus activities.”
Key based his prediction on the growth factor of the ECU student population over the seven years between 1968 and 1975 at roughly $1,000 per student. This figure may fall short of the actual spending of ECU students when figured on Gall quarter enroliment of some 11,392.
Campus students may spend as much as $8 million in Greenville. ECU housing officials list 5435 beds on campus, and during fall quarter all were filled.
These students spend an average of $1500 each during the year in the Greenville business community.

RSI: Re AS a
Concert atrocities
The Dicky Betts Marshall Tucker Band concert of November 13 was a big success as far as ticket sales go. But ticket sales don’t necessarily make a concert a success, especially if the audience leaves disgusted.
You didn't know about that? Well maybe it's about time students at East Carolina realized the kind of reputations they are spreading and either change them or FACE UP!
All the yelling and griping about no concerts, poor concerts, not enough concerts, etc. is screaming in the wind. Pretty soon no one is going to listen to us and here’s why :
The rowdy, pressing conglomerate outside the doors necessitated an early opening during which two girls at the front passed-out from lack of air and would have been trampled into the concrete if police officers had not seen them and gone io the rescue. People were literally squeezed through the turnstiles at rates which left many of them cut, bleeding, tom and angry.
Once inside, too many people continued to drink themseives into alcoholic stupors which left several vomit-covered and ashen-faced people to be cleared out of the empty building after the show was over.
Certainly plenty of students will remember the smelis arising from beneath the bleachers where certain crude members of the audience chose to relieve themselves when they found the slime-covered bathrooms too full of sick people to be accomodating if they even looked. But the guy who nonchaliantly stood up in the stands and

proceeded to make a urinated design on the inviting backs below must take the prize of


the evening for all-out pigishness.
According to Student Union officials and Chief of Police at ECU, Francis Eddings, the evening was alive for ushers and security officers who spent their time carrying out the several drunken pass-outs and 0.D.’s. not to mention the vain attempts to get the audience to observe the no-smoking rules. in fact, many ushers asked to be relieved of their duties quit because of the reaction of smoking students they approached.
Now it is just plain common sense, or so most decently educated and intelligent persons would assume, that you don’t smoke anything in enclosed areas which specifically state No Smoking, and that you don’t use the bleachers and floors as toilettes. And most people would agree the smell of vomit is enough to taint the effects of even the best concerts.
Why, in the name of whatever you hold highest, do we allow this to happen? What kind of people are we? The above mentioned atrocities are all true. But they aren’t the end of what we have done.
According to Dr. Edgar Hooks, Chairman of Health and Physical Education Dept there were 476 cigarette and otherwise buns on the gym floor. And you think students can shrug their shoulders and ciick their tongues at that? Wrong! We pay baby—to the tune of an estimated $500 which comes right out of our Major Attractions tund. We pay all right, when we can’t afford to get popular groups here after Christmas because we have to pay for the extra cost in refinishing the gym fioor. Remember that, next time you hear someone griping about not enough concerts.
But let’s go on to some other little facts and conversation pieces. A few days after the concert a meeting of concemed students, administrators, staff, etc. was held to try and find out some solutions.
Dean Rudolph Alexander mentioned the two couples found in “compromising situations” on the stairwells, and added, “I’m hard put to name anything that human beings can do that was not done at that concert.”
Mr. Hooks commented that he is all for student use of the buildings, but “there is a lot of difference between use and abuse.” He added to a silent roomful of stunned people, “! do not feel can sanction programs that might damage the buildings, no matter what kind of programs they are.”
There is a good possibility the concession stand will be closed down to help avoid the drinking during concerts 6 or 7 cases of empty beer cans alone, were found in the empty building. Other jons were made such as reserved seats, etc. But we can suggest until we're all blue in the face. It’s the students who have to do something. Be- sides, the Student Union is doing everything possible to make the concerts enjoyable to everyone. They don’t want to overload the atmosphere with rules and regulations, announcements and police officers only 19 officers were present.
The fault may not entirely lie with the students the concerts. A rather large percentage of people at ECU attractions are not students. if it is mostly the public who are causing the trouble then it is still up to ECU people to protect their rights — mainly to continue having, and hopefully enjoying, concerts here.
Dr. Hooks said all there is to say when he charged that “It’s time for the silent majority to speak up and teli the few students causing trouble to stop.”
It is just a few people causing most of the trouble. The mood is too contagious at concerts like this to be allowed to spread.
if we care we can stop it. We can actually attend concerts without fear of our detes being harrassed, being thrown-up on, taking a nauseating journey into the muck-floored bathrooms or having to witness disgusting scenes.
Whoever said we had to act like unchained animais to enjoy a concert anyway? True, that is the atmosphere at many, maybe even most, other concerts non-ECU but do we have to stoop to the depths aiso? Must we ourselves for an evening of entertainment? it’s not worth it folks! And ali it will take is a laptul from the drunk behind you or a singed head of hair from the goners next to you, lighting up “one for the road”. Or maybe it will go all the way to the collapsable stage being shaken down by the rude groupies girating in the stage lights and injuring - or worse - the entertainers, before we wake up and realize what we are allowing to happen ali around us.
Take it or leave it? No sir, it’s take it or take it away. Because a reputation caused by a few is gonna mar us all. And it will stick until we decide to do some cleaning up — or, settle for less pleasing concerts because OUR concert money is varnished in the gym floor. Do yourself and a lot of others a big favor at the concert tomorrow night, tell a pig to shut 8, (up) up, grow up or get the hell out!

Armed Forces Health Care Dedicated to Medic ine and the people who practice it
Jenkins on Med School
The question of when accreditation will be granted for a four-year, degree-granting School of Medicine at East Carolina University depends on a number of factors. We are progressing aS rapidly as possible toward fulfilling all conditions and requirements which we are confident will result in our achieving provisional and then full accreditation within the next year or two
The first step is to select a dean and have this week appointed a Search Committee which is already conscientiously pursuing this matter
In informal discussions with officials of the accrediting body in Washington, D.C last November 25 and in other conversations and correspondence we have been assured that we are approaching the matter of applying for and achieving accreditation in a manner which is both procedurally correct and expeditious. We have been assured of ful! cooperation and guidance by the accrediting officials and we are working as rapidly as possible to fulfill, step by step, each of al! of the necessary requirements
see no Cause at all for alarm about undue delay and wish to remind the public of the many instances over the years in which our critics have attempted, unsuccessfully, to misiead, to undermine and try to block every effort we have made to provide this much-needed, urgently-needed addition to our state's medical educaiton program
The people of North Carolina, through their collective voice and through their elected representatives, have made clear that they want a fully-acceptable, four-year degree- granting School of Medicine at East Carolina University, and we are pledged to that end. can assure you that in spite of our detractors, we are going to move ahead

November 13th was the day the Major Attractions Committee presented The Marshall Tucker Band and Richard Betts with his American Music Show in Minges Hiseum
At 7:00 p.m. of the 13th, the coliseum was in a fush. People were hurriedly setting up speakers and sound amplifiers. Nothing urusual occurred inti! 7:30 when the floor of the coliseum pegan to shake and a low rumbie could be neard. Suddenly, a wave of speeding people flew to the front rows of chairs Seats filled rapidly with spectators, many
f ther in high spirits
Marshall Tucker carne on stage shortly past 8:00. The members of this Southern blues-rock band are: Tom Caldwell, pass; Toy Caldwell, lead and slide guitar:
eorge McCorkle, mhythm guitar; Jerry Eubanks, flute, saxophone, and percus-
1, Paul Riddle, drums; and Doug Gray, ead vocals
The band began its performance with
Take the Highway”. “Can't You See” was the second tune. The fiute mastery of Jerry Eubanks was demonstrated in this ng. Toy Caldwell was easily able to stir rowd into clapping with his gestures
and refined guitar performance
Several new tunes were also played. “In My Own Way’ and “This Old
owboy” were among the songs performed from their new album entitled Where We All Belong”.
Ramblin’ was the last song played by
Marshall Tucker. Doug Gray took the

opportunity to beam forth his wide ranging voice
In the half hour intermission between Marshal! Tucker and Richard Betts, the Stage was set up with different equipment
Suddenly, a man in a yellow suit flashed onto the stage foliowed by a small group of musicians. The tune “Blue Sky” was begun. The man in his bright suit was Richard Betts. “Blue Sky” is a song that Betts made famous with the Aliman Brothers Band. The crowd becarne elated

with Betts sang of “going to Carolina on a Sunday mornin”
The second song was “Rain” from Betts’ solo album, HIGHWAY CALL Betts recorded this album receritly with Vassar Clements on the fiddie; David Walshaw, drums; Stray Strayton, bass: Chuck Leavell, piano; John Hughey, pedal steel guitar; the Poindexters; and the Rambos, a gospel singing group.
The Rambos and John Hughey did not appear in this concert. Julian Clark took the position of pedal steei guitarist in the show, participating in dual ‘slide’ leads with Mr. Betis.
Several old and new Betts’ songs held the audiences’ attention mildly until “Ramblin’ Man” was performed. The crowds’ enthusiasm leaped with this song.
Following an intermission, Betts returned to the stage with the Poindexters,

whom had not appeared in the first part of the show. Several biuegrass tunes were played. Of the country music performed, “Jambalaya” seemed to be the biggest hit with the crowd.
Betts returned to the Aliman Brothers style with a half hour version of “Elizabeth
Betts walked off stage after this song, but returned for an encore playing “Long Time Gone” AND “Jessica”.
The performance made a favorable impression on most of the audience. The only valid compiaint of the show is one valid of each concert heid in Minges. The walls and ceilings of the coliseum make a perfect echo chamber. Sound continuous- ly bounced off these surfaces, causing much distortion of the music. Perhaps future cc .certs Could be held outside in Ficklen Stadium???
Previews
GARRICK OHLSSON TO APPEAR
Being the first and only American to win the prestigious Chopin Competition in Warsaw in 1970, Garrick Ohisson has since, firmly established himself as one of the leading pianists in the concert world today. He has also been the winner of Italy's Busoni Prize and Montreal's International Piano Competition.
The Student Union Artist Series is proud to present this talented young performer in concert on Thursday, December 5, 1974 at 8:00 p.m. in Wright Auditorium.
The 1974-75 season is booked solidly for Mr. Ohlsson with recitals and orchestral appearances including the Cincinnati Symphony, Denver Symphony, Montreal Symphony, Munich Philhar- monic, Pittsburg Symphony, and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London. Highlights of this coming season include an extensive tour of Japan and a solo recital at Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center in New York.
Ticket prices are $3.00 for the general public, $2.50 for faculty and staff, and $.50 for students. Tickets may be purchased at the Central Ticket Office, iocated in the Mendenhal! Student Center. Oniy public tickets will be available at the door.
COFFEEHOUSE CONCERT
Biues oriented dobro player Josh Graves will be the specia! guest of the Student Union Coffeehouse Saturday and Sunday December 7 and 8. Graves, who hails from the hill country of Tennessee, began performing after leaving home at age fourteen. His first inspiration came from the biuegrass musicians he became familiar with through his Tennessee background, particularly Cliff Carlisie and Jimmy Rodgers.
He has performed as studio musician, as well as on the road, for many artists including Lou Childress, J.J. Cale, Cowboy Cupus, Del Reeves, Chet Atkins, Carlie McCoy and Kris Kristofferson. He was also asked to perform on several cuts for Leon Russel! albums but, due to prior commitments, had to refuse.
Now Josh Graves in on his own and able to play his own style of music which leans to Diues. He is not rejecting his bluegrass background though. “! love bivegrass,” he insists, “and I'm proud of my past — played with the best. Butreally, I'm into the blues.”
Graves will appear in two shows night! at 8 and 9 p.m. in the multi-purpose room across from the main desk on the first floor ot Mendenhal! Student Center.

know what a bummer it is to have someone tell you to stop smoking or drinking at a concert. As a Major Attractions Committee member apologize for this hassie Dut sincerely want to urge its importance. One, Greenville has a fire law that requires buildings like Minges to restrict smoking for safety reasons. Two, Minges is the property of the ECU students, alumni and staff, and feel it is up to us to take care of it. Three, if we as students, don't participate in self and crowd control it could hinder our chances for future concerts. So please everyone be cool and be careful Sincerely, Angelo Pennino Major Attractions Committee

This year the ommittee Nas done a great job and the Students are really showing their appreciation So far this year the students are showing how much class they have At the Marshall Tucker and Dicky Betts oncerts when Betts played his last song weil over half the crowd had left. know this made Betts feel very good. hope Betts and Caravan will spread the word about now much class and appreciation ECU students have.

We’l lose money
To Fountainhead
Come Friday night we are planning to have one of the biggest concerts eve scheduled at East Carolina. The concert is a sell-out and yet we plan to loose money on it. Our costs are extreme and we need the students help so that our costs will not be unbearable. The Doobie Brothers are requiring additional stage for Minges (they neag pm 80’ wide stage) and also requiring more power to be piped into the coliseum We have to purchase cables for this. Here are a few more things the Doobie Bros raquin ; Chinese caterer, 2. 40 Ibs. dry ice, 3. nitrogen gas, 4. 3 super-trooper lights pius assorted smal! ones, 5. plus a million smaller items that the student has to pay for
The students do not pay any fees at all to reimburse major attractions budget We are self-supporting and if we loose, we have to close up shop. All we ask is that we brag even. We made a profit on Dicky Betts and Marshal! Tucket concert. That profit will go to pay for the loss on the Doobie Bros. (approximately $3000.00 - $4000 00)
We also have to pay for the damages incurred to Minges Coliseum during the
concert. What ask now is that students support in weaknesses as wo

successes. We need to have full cooperation in maintaining Minges Coliseum as it now stands. That means no smoking, drinking, or any other damaging actions Wve re no threatening to stop concerts because of tearing up Minges Colisum.

As a Major Attractions Committee membder feel it is in the best interast of everyone to be informed of the necessity of the people at future concerts to be aware of the fire law.

Hell-raising affair
As you may have noticed or heard, the Marshall Tucker concert was certainly a bnatide hell-raising affair. Unfortunately, however, the extreme actions of some sents seriously damaged the only concert facility in the city of Greenville, which is nges Coliseum. There was almost complete disregard for some simple concert ives. For instance, believe it or not there were over 450 cigarette bums on the
iseum floor
put it mildly there is strong concer on the part of al! individuals involved in the prnation of campus concerts. In fact a meeting was heid soon after the Marshall Tucker cert to discuss problems and hopefully seek solutions in regard to future concert icles. In attendance at this meeting were student affairs administrators, Dr. Hooks, s responsible for Minges Coliseum, and numerous students from all the large
ent organizations.
Many suggestions and aspects of the probiem were given serious consideration and ention. For instance, suggestions such as increased security, reserved seats and not nally suggested but certainly in the back of everyone's mind, a possible moratorium concerts were among those mentioned.
feel the most logical and most productive approach is to make a sincere appeal to to help us Out with this problem. certainly don't want to even somewhat infer that 5 not to raise hell and have a good time at a concert. However, because we must Dtect the facilities of Minges Coliseum some care desperately needs to be taken on the teveryone. Remember, the major attractions committee has to pay for all damages
de by students, which of course comes from the total concert budget. Finally think the special concerts should be congratulated on obtaining the Doobie Dthers It should be a fantastic concert. in order to make it totally successful and pave afe street for future Concerts, please encourage your friends to follow ali concert
ziions. We all will benefit!

Bowling
To Fountainhead :
There are three leagues that have formed to bowl on the lanes at Mendenhall. Every week these leagues are faced with malfunctioning lanes. The lanes are brand spanking new and half of them are out of order from week to week ; two teams of four bowling on one lane. THis is intensely frustrating for everyone concerned. The leagues’ hope is to find the lanes repaired the following week, but comeback to the same heart-breaking situation. Most of the teams have disbanded and if this disappointment continues, the leagues will be sure to collapse.
The employees of the bowling alley are doing the finest job possible. They act as one man bands being the cashier, mechanic and watch guard ail at once. Whoever it may concem; it is not the employees but the lack of them. The alley needs someone to manage the repairs. Is this asking too much? Stu dents pay a reasonable sum to bowl and it is well not worth it. We are all proud of the new student center and the opportunity given us to bowl on campus. Can't we be given the chance to enjoy it?

The East Pa SGA has a responsiblity to serve Students in every capacity, and there Several points of interest that invite investigation bne of these very controversial areas is exNorbitant and unfair out-of-state Whereas the SGA cannot

personally change the tuition, they certainly can exert pressure on the North Carolina State Legislature through student support, the young Republican and Democrat parties, the North Carolina Student Delegate Assembly, and other related means. When election time occurs, the SGA could even actively support and campaign for, at least, a reduction in the out-of-state tuition. After all, the $789 charge does reach quite a few students
A second issue is the policy of dormitory visitation. Instead of an already biased Board of Trustees (who seek pronographic plots in all heterosexual encounters) administering the regulations it would be a triumph for student maturity and independence if each dorm could have some verbalization in the visitation decision. Since the SGA President is a member of the Board, direct student input and opinion can easily be achieved, whereas actual results would necessitate calm and proper petitioning
The third area would be the Student Supply Stores’ actual monopoly over the campus. The book-buying policy exists as a constant thorn in the sides of the students and insults the financial sense of the student. This problem has never been solved in my seven year relations with ECU, although the Veterans book exchange is a forward step The solicitation policy emerges this year to effectively prevent al! student fund-raising

The 1974-1975 legislature will probably be historically categorized as an efficient organization. If they will delve into the above three areas, they can be further remembered for their total involvement in the students’ welfare. They could even be credited with a “first” in the SGA expansion into student needs that have been historically 100 percent administra tive. The final question arises: Does this SGA have the sheer guts and dedicated desire to tread paths unknown in order to aid the ECU students in areas that have been closed to student inquiry in the past and present? Only a “pat” answer can be given: “Time will tell.”

Crisis
What would you, as a student, do if a crisis came upon you suddenly? Would you know who to turn to, or where to go? am sure many students here at ECU would not Know who, and where to go for heip and consequently be worse off.
A crisis means something has changed, such as the homeostasis of an individual's life. Such a crisis would be, a loss of a loved one, an unwanted pregnancy, or the pressures of school work. What ever the reason, all of us go through a crisis in our lives at one time or another. Just as peopie are different, the way a crisis effects us is different. For some of us, the crisis will pass as quickly as it came. Yet, others may be tormented for months. In this case, the person needs to talk to someone about the crisis. It does not have to be professional heip, but someone who can be trusted. It could be your best friend, a minister or a significant person.
If you cannot confide in any of these people, you could use the services of East Carolina's Student Guidance Center. The Guidance Center is located in 307 Wright Annex Building. All ECU students are eligible for counseling, at no cost. You do not have to be on the verge of suicide to use the center. If you are having problems with your studies, and cannot seem to find the answer, the Guidance Center could be your answer. Or, if you just cannot decide what vocation best suits you if there is one, again the center will guide you. Naturally, everything is confiden- tial. The staff consists of five full time members who wil! be giad to see and hear you to the final stages of your personal crisis. If acrisis does occur on a weekend and you feel you need heip, the Guidance Center says contact the infirmary or Real House. The Infirmary will later refer you to the Guidance Center
So, the next time you feel you're going off your rocker, don't, see the Guidance Center

It is a shame that this organization is not supported by the Fountainhead and the student body more than it is. The Fountainhead has not yet given this organization the recognition it deserves. Only one letter has appeared in the Forum conceming them. After eight hours or more of practice each week creating a half-time program, most peopie leave during their show

By BARBARA TURNER Staff Writer
The ECU Student Volunteer Associ- a campus arm of Volunteer reenville, WaS approved aS a Campus prgan ization on November 18, according to ve Hamer, one of the coordinators. The ECU Volunteer Association's urpose is to provide an opportunity for 4 Jent volunteers to share their problems ‘ experiences with persons of groups ho rely on volunteer help for their iectiveness, such as Boy's Club The association is searching for new nteer roles for students.

It is really just a matter of logistics, since the area is within close walking distance for the students who live on campus,” Rawis explained
While he admitted that most of the busineses in the Fifth Street area were aimed at the students, he claimed that more than one person had gone broke or suffered some negative effects from the student population
Many businesses have failed in that area because of all the student traffic,” Rawis said. He pointed to the tough reputation the area has acquired, and that all the people hanging around the stores hurts business about as much as it helps

Ca gers drop opener to Pack
By SAM ROGERS Staff Writer
Dave Patton's East Carolina Pirates, sporting their new Celtic Influence look, ventured to Reynolds Coliseum last Saturday night and found out why North Carolina State is rated the number one team in the country this season. Matter of fact, the Pirates could have probably used a couple of characters like John Havlicek and Dave Cowens to battle David Thompson and the rest of the Wolfpack squad.
North Carolina State overwheimed the Pirates 98-81 for their first victory of the new season, but East Carolina put on quite a respectable performance considering the obstacles that the rowdy 12,400 partisan fans, along with obnoxious Norm Sloan and his gang, presented the Pirates.
The major obstacle was the menacing, pressure defense that little Monte Towe and his cohort Morris Rivers displayed which gave the Pirate backcourt a fit the entire evening. Time and again the Wolfpack team pilfered errant passes and converted them into easy layups. The Pirates were guilty of 36 turnovers which let the Pack build up their final victory margin
Nevertheless, the Pirates never quit until the final hom and the few East Carolina supporters at the game saw a much improved team over last year’s club.
Towe, Rivers and Thompson converted four quick buckets to open up a 92 advantage before the Pirates could regroup and cal! time out. East Carolina came back and managed to regain their composure, reeling off eight straight points to State’s zero
Kenny Edmonds hit a long jumper in between two by Buzzy Braman, and the Pirates cut the Pack’s lead to one point at 11-10
But that was as close as the Pirates got all evening. Phil Spence and David Thompson went to work on the smaller Pirates inside while Monte Towe was stealing passes left and right.
State led by as many as 15 points in the first half, but could never really put the Pirates away for keeps because of the number of fouls the Wolfpack committeed.
Towe, Rivers and Stoddard all had three fouls in the first half which gave East Carolina numerous opportunities at the
free throw line, but the Pirates converted only 8 of 18 free throws which gave State a comfortable 49-36 cushion at the half.
State came out running in the second half, quickly building @p a 20-poing advantage on tne strength of the magical moved of David Thompson.
Spence continued to dominate on both backboards and for all purposes the game was over long before the midway point in the second period. East Carolina never quit and managed to narrow the final

Mermen ready for Penn State
By JOHN EVANS Sports Editor
East Carolina's swimmers open their road season Saturday when the Pirates travel to University Park, Pennsylvania to compete in the Penn State swim relays
“We hope we can do better this year than last year when we finished seventh,” said swim coach Ray Scharf
Scharf said the team “had the ability to be the best swim team the school has ever had.” But he added, “the team’s success will depend on their own dedication and motivation.”
On the competition in the Penn State Relays, Scharf noted the competition was better than before and named six schools which the Pirate mermen would be pressed to place ahead of. Among these teams Maryland, Pittsburgh,and Villanova are the
yughest. Maryland has won the meet the ast two seasons
Another major problem confronts Scharf. That is the problem of choosing the school’s traveling squad to participate in the meet
“It will be difficult to select the traveling squad for the relays,” said Scharf, “our depth is so deep and we can only take 18 swimmers.”
In addition to the smail squad, the meet format will call for the 18 swimmers to fill 48 spots
Scharf cornmented he hoped the team did not suffer too much from the traveling. “The greatest problem with any away meet will be the traveling. Scharf said, “It hurts us in the meet because the men are not totally rested enough to perform their best.”
“We have dedicated boys who want to do well. These next few weeks before Christmas will tell just how well we are prepared for this year.”
The Pirates are well-stocked for this season and the Penn State Relays will provide the squad with some top-notch competition before they enter their dual meet season on November 14 with Appalachian State. But, as coach Scharf points Out, concerning the relays, “The pressure on each man depends on his motivation. They (the Swimmers) are
going to get a chance to prove t this us hemselves

iI
margin to a respectable 17 points
New head coach Dave Patton wasn bitterly disappointed over the Pirates’ loss and, frankly, the Pirates did a respectable job on the number one-ranked Wolfpack
“N.C. State has a fine team With a crowd like the one tonight, it's harg to Keep your composure,” said Patton. “ don't think it’s any disgrace to lose by 17 points, though. If you take away all the easy layups they got, think we would have been right back in the bai! game.”
Patton was quick to keythe outstanding play of Thompson and Spence, “There js no way to defense David Thompson. He's just a super player. Phil Spence really impressed me. He has made tremendous improvement since last season.”
Thompson led ail scorers in the game with 33 points and grabbed seven rebounds while Phil Spence added 2 points and snagged 17 rebounds Morris Rivers socred 16 points and Monte Towe chipped in with 10 to round out the double figure scoring for the Wolfpack
Although the Pirates made many mistakes and looked sloppy at times, it was a typical opening game.
“We made a lot of mental! mistakes and think we should have handled the pressure a little better than we did,” said Patton, “but we hustled and never quit. Tom Marsh and Gregg Ashorn played well and Wade Henkel looked pretty good. have a great deal of confidence in this ball club and think we're going to have a good year.”
Ashorn led the Pirate scoring with 16 points. Reggie Lee came off the bench to pump in 14 points and Kenny Edmonds scored 11 points while Wade Henkel and Tom Marsh rounded out the double figure scoring with 10 points.
State hit on 41 of 82 shots for an even 50 percent while East Carolina was 31 of 64 for 48.4 percent. The taller Wolfpack outrebounded the Pirates 46 to 35

ECU splits, VMI new SCchamps!
Weaver goes to air
By JOHN EVANS Sports Editor
Mike Weaver reverted back to his old high schoo! passing form against William and Mary and led East Carolina to a 31-10 win over the Indians in Williamsburg, Virginia ‘Weaver, one of the top passers in North Carolina during his playing days at Williamston High School, completed six of ten passes for 189 yards and a 74-yard roucndown pass to Theodore Ashford. Before the William and Mary gare, Weaver had completed only 14 of 63 passes for 221 yards
Weavers passing proved to be the jeciding factor in the game, as the Pirates totalled 425 yards in total offense to the indians’ 297 total yards.
ECU pulled ahead in the second period, after trailing 7-3, when Weaver connected with Ashford on a 74-yard pass-run. Ash- ford bobbled the pass, but held on to travel the final 25 yards for the score.
William and Mary came back to tie the score at 10-10, but Weaver led the Pirates 5 a go-ahead touchdown with 2:45 remaining in the half.
Weaver hit end Will Williamson for 36 yards to the six yard line and Kenny Straynorn scored to put East Carolina ahead to stay at 17-10.
The Pirate defense dominated the second half, setting up both ECU scores and keeping William and Mary in their own territory for the majority of the half. The indians could manage only 89 yards total offense in the second half
The first Pirate score in the second half came late in the third period following a Danny Kepley interception.
Kepiey intercepted a Bill Deery pass at the 37 and retumed it 36 yards to the one. Strayhorn scored his second touchdown of the game on the next play and the Pirates ed 24-10
Kepiey Ss return established him as the career interception retum yardage leader
with 196 yards
The final score of the game came midway through the final period when freshman Willie Hawkins bounced off several would-be tacklers on a 12-yard touchdown run.
Hawkins’ score came four plays after Nick Bullock had recovered a Deery fumble at the WM 40. Tom Daub carried for 20 and Weaver for eight before Hawkins tallied the game's final score.
The 31-10 Pirate win was tarnished by Appalachian State's 1413 win over Richmond. ASU's victory eliminated the Pirates from any chance at a conference title and put Appalachian in a first-place tie with VMI. Both teams had a 41 conference record.
Gary Nikiason and Danny Kepley were standouts on defense, as they had been ail season, with Nikiason contributing 21 tackles and Kepley 15. Butch Strawder- man put together an excellent game for the third week in a row.
The William and Mary game was the finest East Carolina performance of the year and, as several players noted after the game, proved Mike Weaver could pass.
Billy Hibbs noted, “We knew he could pass, but until today he did not seem to have the confidence to put it all together.”
ECU head coach Pat Dye cailed Weaver's performance, “Gratifying.”
“Our passing game has always been there,” said Dye. “We just seemed to have something bad happen every time we threw the football.”
Dye said the team had learned something from the previous week's loss to Richmond.
“Our offense is a running offense,” said Dye, “but after last week Richmond) we knew we had to pass more to be successful. With a good passing attack we are hard to stop.”
Against William and Mary the passing game turned the trick, leaving East Carolina at 7-3 for the season as the Pirates advanced into their season finale against VMI
Clubbers drop finale
The East Carolina club football team
ended a disappointing season November
with its most disappointing game of the season, a 14-0 loss to the North Carolina
tball team ‘Mad the UNC team been a stronger ie score could have been more Opsided The East Carolina club played a disorganized game and the game featured
sary P
many outbreaks of fighting, as several players trom both squads were ejected fron the game
"he Pirates’ wishbone proved totally Netfective - as it ran off only 25 plays the entire garne. The lack of offense placed a ajOr burden on the defense.
‘he defense was excellent with Les ‘vaiker, John Evans, Joel Oppenheimer, Bobby Lougee, and Bobby Brandon '8a0Ng a defensive line which reached the “0'Na Quarterback for seven sacks.
he two Carolina scores came primarily 4 result of penalities, which ECU had »ver100 yards worth. The first score came "the first period on a 12-yard touchdown
run by the Rams’ quarterback. The play followed a 55-yard pass play on the game's
third play The second score followed two penalties against the Pirates for
unsportsmanlike conduct. The score came on a five-yard end sweep on fourth down. Chapel Hill had several other opportunities to score which they failed to take advantage of, including three field goal attempts which were unsuccessful. The Pirates’ rough play and display of unsportsmanlike conduct was 4 result of a long season of frustration for a team which finished 2-6 this year after having won the league title four consecutive years. It was the first example of misconduct by the team this season, but nevertheless left a bad irnpression on the team’s Chapel Hill ysponents wa clubbers were not used to losing and for many of the fourth-year players the season's outcome was just too much for them to accept. The outcome of their final season caused many of them to leave their frustrations on the field
Keydets win crown
By JOHN EVANS Sports Editor
A deflected touchdown pass and two fied goals were all VMI needed to defeat a sluggish East Carolina offense and take their first Southern Conference title since 1962 with a 13-3 victory.
The VMI Keydets controlled the game throughout. Following a dropped pass by Vic Wilfore in the end zone near the end of the second period East Carolina never threatened again
VMI had jumped to a 10-0 lead on a 15-yard touchdown pass from Tony Farry to Ronnie Moore and Rich Rufaro’s 25-yard field goal
On his touchdown reception, Moore grabbed the pass while laying on his back, after the pass had been deflected by two East Carolina defenders. It marked the third time in the season the Pirates had suffered with such a fate.
East Carolina appeared to be driving back in the second period. First the Pirates drove 60 yards to the Keydet ten before stalling and settling for Jim Woody's 25 yard field goal.
Later in the quarter, the Pirates drove again on a 70-yard drivé, which carried East Carolina to the VMI five yard-line. On first down, Mike Weaver hit Vic Wilfore in the end zone with a perfect pass, but Wilfore dropped the pass. Following a seven-yard loss by Kenny Strayhom, the Pirates went for a field goal from the 19, but VMI's Johnny Garnett blocked Woody's attempt and the Pirates were finished for the day.
Garnett had earlier intercepted a Weaver pass to set up Tufaro’s successful field goal try
In the second period, both offenses proved sluggish, but on the half's first series the Keydets managed to control the hall for seven and a half minutes before setting the Pirates back on their own seven
East Carolina remained deep in their own territory for most of the quarter, oreventing Head Coach Pat Dye from opening up his attack.
When ECU finally obtained good field position, Jim Woody missed on a 43-yard field goal attempt.
On the next series, the Keydets’ Ronnie Norman broke free on a 52-yard run to set up the game's final score - a 19-yard field goal by Tufaro.
Norman's run established him as the first VMI rusher to ever exceed 1,000 yards rushing in a season. Norman, despite the 52 yards on the one carry, finished the game with 107 on 21 carries.
The remainder of the game proved to be a defensive standoff as the Keydets, led by middieguard Phil Upton, kept East Carolina’s offense backed deep in their own territory. Likewise, the East Carolina defense performed well in preventing the Keydets frorn scoring from the good field position they had in the final quarter.
East Carolina ended the game desperately with Weaver being sacked for the seventh time by the Keydet defense at his own three on fourth down.
VMI's Farry chose to end the game ina sportsmanlike manner by falling on the ball, instead of trying to run the score up
The outcome of the game gave the Southern Conference a new champion. A champion which is a worthy one - having finished 5-1 in the conference and 7-4 overall. For the Pirates, the defeat brought to a close a disappointing 7-4 season, which seemed to decline following the team’s heartbreaking 24-20 loss to North Carolina State in the season’s fourth
game.
