proposal approved by both hospital groups is a principle of proposed affiliation
ay!
nent with Pitt Memorial Hospital and the ECU School of Medicine. Under this
“raament Pitt Memorial would play a major role with ECU in establishing medical
hing facilities.
ECU can establish a working agreement with the county hospital to set-up the
eexiext medical school facilities, there will not be a need to construct a teaching hospital
the new med school as hed originally been proposed, Dr. Monroe pointed out.
U med school link
“In the budget for the med school for the next two years some $20,000,000 was set
aside to build a teaching hospital. But, if an agreement can be reached with Pitt
Memorial, there will be a considerable savings since it will cost less to move into the new
hospital than it would to construct a new one, Dr. Monroe noted.
While Dr. Monroe admitted that there would be a savings for the state if constuction
of a teaching hospital did not have to be built, the health affairs vice-chancelior would
not be pinned down to just how much money could be saved.
“At this time don't want to predict how much could be saved by moving our facilities
into the new hospital area. But, undoubtedly it would be cheaper for the state if we did
not have to build the teaching hospital,” Or. Monroe asserted.
if an agreement between ECU and the hospital can be established, additional beds
will be more than likely added to the new hospital under construction, according to Dr.
Monroe.
One suggestion that would be considered under an ECU-Pitt Memorial agreement
would call! for an additional bed tower to be added to the new hospital with these beds set
aside for use by the med school.
Plans call for some 370 beds in the new hospital but only 300 of these will be used for
acute medical care. If another bed tower were added up to 150 more beds would be

recipients of guaranteed student loans.
The four volume study (which,
incidentally, cost the Office of Education
$180,000) found what most educators
already knew: that the recipients of these
loans tend to be students from families of
middie and lower income brackets, and are
people who for the most part would not
receive formal education beyond high

The study also shows that defaulters

Dean expected
in April
The recommendation of at least two
candidates for the post of Dean of the ECU
Medical Schoo! is expected before the end
of April, according to Dr. Edwin Monroe,
vice-chancellor of Medical Affairs at ECU.
Dr. Monroe explained that the selection
committee for the Dean’s post has been
working since the first of December and
was in the process of trimming the fieid of
candidates down to a select few.
“Since the committee started work in
December the credentials of 70-80
candidates from @ ound the country have
been reviewed,” Dr. Monroe noted.
From that list of candidates Dr. Monroe
explained that several prospects had been
interviewed once and some even twice.
But, DOr. Monroe contended that the
field had not been narrowed down to the
final few yet.
“At this time the committee is still
talking to people about the job. The
candidates to be recommended have yet to
be decided on,” Dr. Monroe continued.
The screening committee, headed by
Dr. Wallace Wooles, was commissioned in
December to turn in at least two
candidates for the Dean of the Med school.
The final selection from the candidates
recommended will be made by Chancelior
Leo Jenkins and the Board of Trustees.
Dr. William C. Friday, President of the
UNC system, then has to approve the ECU
choice.
If the recommendations are in by the
end of April, Dr. Monroe noted that the
new Dean could be doing some work with
the med school by late Spring.
“Of course the sooner the vacancy can
be filled the better off the program will be,”
Dr. Monroe added.
If the spot can be filled in the next few
months, Dr. Monroe noted that the efforts
by the ECU committee would represent
something close to @ record as far as
naming med school deans is concerned.
Dr. Monroe pointed out that it usually
takes from 8-12 months for most med
schools to secure a dean.
“But, this screening committee has
been meeting at least once a week since it
began its search in December and has

NC House committee studying ERA bill
This is the eighth of a series of weekly
summaries prepared by the legislative staff
of the Institute of Government on the work
of the North Carolina General Assembly.
it is confined to discussions of matters of
general interest for the week ending March
15. 1975
The Equal Rights Amendment
The proposed 27th Amendment (the
Equal Rights Amendment) has been
by 34 of the 38 states necessary
hecome part of the United State
stitution, and N.C. is one of the few
states still to consider ratification this
year. The wording of the amendment itself
s rather simple — “Equality of rights under
the law shall not be denied or abridged by
the ted States or any state on account
fsex but the emotions it generates are
ated, numerous and sometimes
The House Constitutional Amend-
ments Committee now has before it two
tentica bills (H 15 of Rep. Hyde and H 16
sf Reo. Michaux) to accomplish this
state's ratification of the ERA, and public
hearings have been held for the last several
weeks. With two afternoons having
already been set aside for proponents and
opponents of the amendment, the next
oublic session scheduled is next week to
hear North Carolina’s former U.S. senator,
sam Ervin, give his arguments against
m
Ratification of ERA is not the only
choice that has been presented to the
committee. Rep. Prestwood of Caidweil
introduced H 117 to have a nonbinding
state wide referendum on the amendment
as part of the 1976 general election, and
the committee chairman, Rep. Campbell of
Wilson put in H 327, which would let the
voters of the state decide in 1976 whether
they wanted an amendment to the state

constitution barring sex discrimination
No formal action has been taken on any of
the proposais yet and it is generally
assumed that a delay in making a decision
hurts the chances for ERA ratification.
Although mail on the subject has been
heavy and attendance at the hearings has
been great, ERA debate this session
seems somewhat subdued compared to
the hordes of campaigners and the shrill
rhetoric of two years ago. In 1973 the
action was practically centered in the
Senate and rafitication finally lost there by
a vote of 27 to 23 (26 senators remain from
1973; 14 voted for ratification and 12
against). Following that vote, several bills
proposed state no-sex-bias amendments
(some introduced by opponents of ERA
and some by those who favored it), but
none ever made it out of committee. The
only action in the House last session was a
rather decisive 83-32 rejection of a
referendum bill similar to Rep.
Prestwood's.
No-fault, utilities, milk
Another subject which generated
considerable interest in the last General
Assembly was no-fault. auto ins irance.
Several proposals were made and one even
passed the Senate in 1973 but it
languished in the House Insurance
Committee and the entire 1974 portion of
the session. This week Rep. Lawing of
Mecklenburg introduced the no-fault bill
for 1975, H 425, and it is now in that same
Insurance Committee (same name that is,
but different members and chairman).
The bill presented by Lawing is similar
to current Florida law. A person would not
be allowed to sue a motorist if his
economic losses were less than $5,000,
even if the other person were at fault, but
would instead recover from his own
insurance company up to that amount for
medical expenses, loss of wages, and so
forth.
If the losses were over $5,000 the
person at fault could be sued. if general
damages were sought (for pain and
suffering and other non-economic losses)
suit could not be brought until medical
expenses exceeded $2,000, death or
serious injury resulted, or two months’
work was lost. The legislation would cover
only personal injuries; recovery for
physical damage to the vehicle would
continue to be handied under the current
liability insurance system.
The bill goes to a committee which
already has before it several other
controversial matters, including legis
lation to eliminate discrimination in auto
insurance rates based on age, to add
collision to the insurance covered by the
reinsurance facility created last session
(replacing assigned risk), and to create a
reinsurance facility for medical insurance.
Two of the utilities bills reported here
earlier have received action within the last
week. On Wednesday S 119 was ratified
(Ch. 45 of the 1975 Session Laws); it
hopes to hasten Utilities Commission
action on rate increase applications (which
automatically take effect after a set time if

rs years Of siNgins countertenor have finally
wr ic taken their toll on his voice. Luckily you
er cannot hear his voice very well most of the
ar time due to the way the songs are
xe mixed. Led Zeppelin doesn’t suffer too
much from fewer vocais since their main
'Nrust is the energetic guitar, bass, and
drum trios which are in excellent
form. The material, however, is less
interesting than any of their previous
albums. The most outstanding songs are
xara
yi In My Time of Dying,” “Houses of the
a Holy, “Kashmir,” “Ten Years Gone,” and
pos In the Light.”
SIDE ONE
Custard Pie” is a monotonous
80ng that introduces you to Plant’s worn
ut voice and is twice as long as tolerable.
‘Ne Rover’ is a rhythmically stiff song in
Wnich the bass guitar is guaranteed to give
8
you a throbbing headache. “In My Time
»f Dying” has pleasant slide work. sloppy
drumming, and tempos that vary from
Sluggishness to sheer frantic excitement
‘In My Time of Dying” is good despite
excessive guitar leads by Page
SIDE TWO
Houses of the Holy” is a
respectably good song in which Plant's
voice starts Out smooth and gets worse
Trampled Under the Foot” sounds like
getting trampled on the head by a foot and
iS about as interesting. This song should
be used in concert only, if at all. “Kash-
mir’ is an unusual Eastern sounding song
with some pleasing orchestration and
some unusual dissonence patterns. How-
ever, this song is too long for what it
sounds like
SIDE THREE
‘In the Light’ is an electric
composition with an introduction that
sounds like Harrison's “Within You,
Without You” and contains several
commercially acceptable guitar and
synthesizer solos and some music that
would be better put to use in a horror
movie. “Bronyaur’ is an acoustic guitar
solo and a much needed change from
Page's excessively loud fast guitar solos.
“Sea Side” is a country sounding song that
I'm sure Poco would have loved to have
written. “Ten Years Gone” is a track in
which Page successfully simplifies his
guitar playing so that it fits the music.
SIDE FOUR
“Night Flight” is a rock and roll
song structurally similar to the Beatles’
“Get Back.” “The Wanton Song” is “The
Immigrant Song” slightly rearranged with
different lyrics. “Boogie With Stu” is a
stupid jam song that sounds like the
theme song from “The Munsters” or
“Batman”. “Black Country Woman” is a
blues song which if played by anyone else
might be heard in a honky tonk. “Sick
Again” is another rock and roll or bives
song that sounds a little like “Good Times,
Bad Times.”
Physical Graffiti sounds like it was

CSR
Let‘s be reasonable!
Money, money, money and even more money. Student Government Legisiature
neetings Must get to be rather mundane with their weekly confrontations over numerous
groups and organizations asking for various amounts of money
True to course, another money matter came to the floor last Monday, only this one
soncerned the SGA more directly than most other requests
This particular bill was in reference to a type of pay increase for the SGA President
and Mis executive Doard
it was Suggested that the SGA President's tuition be paid by the SGA rather than an
ut-and-out raise in salary. This would mean that along with his $130 a month salary, the
approximate $50 a month tuition would give the president a salary equivalent to $180 a
nonth. (Tuition would be paid directly to the school.)
The bill did not meet with very receptive legislators and it was tabled for discussion
possibly next week. The biggest hang-up seemed to be the question of out-of-state
tuition which would hugely increase the amount of money for the president.
Now we reach a moral issue, somewhat. The paying of student officers and
representatives S a subject most of us know little about and think about even less. How
ever, serving students are students, nonetheless, and must often support themselves
through school. Having to work parttime jobs as well as be in school and do a decent job
as an elected official is extremely difficult. It is next to impossible if the person is
expected to do a Detter than average job in any or all three areas.
The old addage, You Pay For What You Get, is certainly true, and even more so now
1g 'S SO tight, Not to mention the present push for close scrutiny and
ticism of those in high places. If students are going to pay their money into student
activity fees which are handied by the SGA, it stands to reason that we shouid be just as
neemed about the calibre of people with the final word about usage of that money.
t's gallant and admirable, or used to be, to work “for the good of the cause” without
pecting grand rewards. But we al! know that just isn't practical, barely even livable,
Gay. There is no sense in asking our elected officers to lose their health and peace of
thy at Vela!
lat everytnir
SGA president currently makes $130 a month. Considering the time he spends in the
ffice ut of the office on school business, he makes jess than a dollar an hour. It's
ard to Think of Many people, especially “college material” working for that.
And the really amazing thing about it is that our student government has one of the
argest Tinancial set-ups in the country!This year we had over $340,000 to dole out. Just
aS a Means of comparison, N.C. State, a larger schoo! than ECU, had an SGA budget ot
¥ $20,000. Quite a difference, yet we pay our “money controllers” peanuts
No one who runs for elected offices on campus expects to come out affluent as a
result. The desire to work for students and actually serve must be there. Still. they do
expect, and should, to be able to survive. And saying that people shouldn't apply if they
annot afford it is dangerously limiting ourselves by saying only those with plenty of
money can run for freely elected offices. Money doesn't mean the best man. We cannot
afford to let our money be handled by anyone other than who have more dedication.
nterest and experience than anything elise.
if the aspect of paying out-of-state tuition for SGA presidents of the future is too
awesome to live with, then SGA legislators should think seriously about a salary increase
for the officials who spend so much time and energy for the students who elect them.
Whether we appreciate the Student Government and its efforts is one thing, but
refusing to be sensible and progressive enough to at least make the office livable and
»pen to everyone equally is an aspect that must be considered. When the bill comes up
for consideration, think before you decide. Need we mock our campus governmental
structure any more by financially handicapping the offices to the availability of only the
chosen financially secure few’?

Students more mature
By PAUL A. FREUND
(Paul A. Freund is perhaps America’s most distinguished legal scholar. Professor
Freund, a constitutional lawyer and historian of the United States Supreme Court, is the
author of THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES and ON LAW AND JUSTICE.
He is past president of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and is presently in
his thirty-first year as Professor of Law ar Harvard University.
Education was once defined by John
Maynard Keynes as “the inculcation of the
incomprehensible into the ignorant by the
incompetent”; but we know that this is a
gross Canard, because students today are
far from ignorant. Are they wise as well as
knowing? The student generation insists
that learning must be pertinent to their
immediate personal problems, to their
search, in the current phrase, for their
self-identity. This attitude, it seems to

help to cope, for example, with two of the
principle domestic crisis of our time the
“isis of the power of confrontation and
the crisis of the power of technology?
First consider the power of
confrontation as a form of protest, a
reflection of the spirit that demands which

Mistrust; ‘not the least problem’
By ERWIN D. CANHAM
Editor in Chief of The Christian Science Monitor since 1964, Erwin D. Canham has
established himself as a renowned commentator on domestic and intemational current
events, both in the newspaper and television media. Mr. Canhan has served as President
of the American Society of Newspaper Editors, Chairman of the National Manpower
Council, and President of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. in 1970, he
was appointed a member of the President’s Commission on Campus Unrest.
Not the least of the problems of the
western wor'd, and of the United States in
particular, is that of mistrust — of lack of
confidence in one another of disbelief in
the authenticity of most of the information
to which we are exposed
Skepticism, of course, has its very real
merits. The “man from Missouri” is an
ancient and respected type. But any
society needs some inner core of
confidence if it is not to disintegrate. Our
present sense of trust in one another is
being badly corroded. There have been
numerous academic studies of confi-
dence, and they add up to the same
thing: a growing sense of mistrust.
This is bad news for all of us, but
especi. 'ly for a newspaper editor who is a
professional purveryor of information and
analysis. It is also bad news for
government, for education, for religion —
for society.
would suspect that the search for
something and somebody you can trust is
a very important element in youth thought
today. Naturally. Without some touch-
stone of confidence in life, one is lose,
disoriented.
How can we try to restore the degree of
mutual trust in society which will enable
us to cohere and move forward toward
solution of the myriad social evils on
which we will agree?
One important thing to remeber is that
our perceptions naturally and honestly
differ from one another. Henry Mencken
wrote that no word means the same thing
to any two people. What we perceive,
what we believe, results from our total life
experience. That we see something
lemnerrew
Students reject old fashion
behavior through chemical substances the
implant of electrodes; that we shall be
able to prolong human life through the
transplantation of organs; and that
computers will deliver up at our call a host
of stored information, much of which
could be of the most intimate and personal
sort, for a computer, though it may know
ail, does not have the capacity to forget or
forgive. Someone, the story goes, fed a
tape into a computer with the question “Is
there a God?” and after the wheels clicked
and whirled, the tape came out with the
message, “There is now’. But don't want
to be understood as anti-scientific. Quite
the contrary. My point is rather that we
suffer from the default of the humanities
and the social sciences in preparing us, as
the French biologist said, to be men.
Philosophy has too often deteriorated
into a branch of mathematics of
linguistics. Political science has become
quantified so that the questions being
asked are those trivial enough to be
answered by the capacity of present-day
computing machines. Somehow the old
questions of the meaning of justice, the
legitimacy of authority, the obligation of
fidelity to law - these questions if they are
considered systematically at all seem to be
consigned to the preserve of the law
schools, but these are questions far too
important to be left to the professionals.
The scientists themselves are appealing to
the non-professionals to guide them in
resolving those moral questions which
their own efforts have inescapably raised.
If a liberal education does not address
itself to these basic issues of the proper
uses of technology, then technology will
by default become a frakenstein. We are
told by scientists that we are now able to
accomplish virtually anything we seek and
so the question is necessarily, now and in
the future - what should we seek? For the
first time in history the pressing question
before society is not what can be done, but
what ought to be done, and so the
relevance of the moral teachers of the past
is surely not less than ever before.
Socrates is as relevant today as Sartre.
We will have to live increasingly with moral
ambiguities. The often conflicting rights
of the living individual and the claims of
posterity, the obligations of law
observance and the duty of private
conscience, are themes that run through
the greatest literature from Antigone to
Hamiet to Billy Budd. It will not be an
easy world in which these moral
ambiguities will be pressing, if not for
solution at least to be lived with
understandingly, and yet they are not
different from the problems which the
minds of the past have wrestied with save
in their urgency and pace. To adapt a
phrase of Justice Holmes — “when you
take off the lion’s skin of jargon, you find
the some old jackass of a moral problem
underneath”. The beckoning task of the
liberal arts is to give us a look beneath the
skin.
different from another individual's
perception of the same object or event,
does not say that one of us must be wrong.
We can make allowance for these wide
divergences of perception, and not accuse
the other person of dishonesty just
because he sees things differently. We
can try to understand the factors that have
produced his perception. This adds to the
range of our own vision.
All this, Know, sounds flat and
preachy. it is, in fact, a very practical
thing of which , as anewsman, am acutely
aware. Newspapers, magazines, radio,
television are under attack. received the
other day the brochure of an organization
whose precise purpose was to undermine
public confidence in the news media.
The media, of course, must save
themselves. They can do it by striving
harder than ever for credibility, for
integrity, for accuracy of observation and
responsibility in selection of what to print
or say. They, too, must remember that an
event looks very different to a participant
than it does to a professional
observer. The reporter may often be right;
the participant may often be wrong. But
the gap is too great today. It can be
narrowed by greater care on the reporter's
part, greater awareness on the
participant's part that his views, too, are
not unerringly accurate.
There are thousands of ways in which
mutual confidence is today being
weakened. Exaggerated advertising
claims. Psycholgoical techniques of
thought control. Failure to communicate,
which usually means failure to listen.
(There's plenty of talking, too little
listening.)
And, speaking of young people, one of
the most despicable elements to
undermine mutual trust is the use of stool
pigeons and informers by law enforcement
agencies. In coping with hard crime,
know the police have long had to rely on
stool pigeons. think there is no place for
this kind of infiltration in the reaim of
ideas. And if we are talking of
revolutionary activities, of bombs and
disruptions, think infiltrations should be
used as sparingly as possibile, for its
consequences in mutual trust are
devastating. The cure may be worse than
the disease.
The degree to which we are all what we
appear to be, and can look one another in
the eye again with full faith and
confidence, may be the test of the return of
health in our society.

before any formal agreement could be reached.
“Such an agreement would have to be approved by our Board of Trustees and then by
Dr. William C. Friday, president of the UNC system, and the Consolidated Board of
Trustees,” Monroe continued.
Approval by the Consolidated Board is required since the Board originally approved
the med school program calling for a separate teaching hospital.
Dr. Monroe aiso pointed several legal problems involved before reaching any
agreement.
“There might be a legal problem since state money would be used with the med

administered,” Dr. Monroe pointed out.
The new Pitt Memorial Hospital, built behind the oid Pitt Memorial off of Memorial

Sports Editor
March 12 was a very special day for
East Carolina basketball coach Dave
Patton. It was on this day Patton was
named the Southem Conference Coach of
the Year. The same day he was leading his
East Carolina squad into their second
post-season appearance ever in the
National Commissioner's Invitational
Tournament
Even in this hour of glory, Patton was
characteristically modest conceming his
selection as Coach of the Year.
it's a great honor to be named coach
of the year,” said Patton, “but feel several
other coaches in the league were as
deserving or more so than myself.”
Patton, however, did something with
East Carolina which was sorely needed, he
revamped a dying program. Making a
13-12 team from last year into one of the
top basketball powers in the Southeast.
When Patton arrived in 1972, it was to
be an assistant head coach and recruiter
for then Head Coach Tom Quinn. But, as
the years progressed, Quinn's personality
become more and more conflicting with
the East Carolina players’ and the ECU
program was in trouble.
Despite excellent recruiting from
Patton, and later, now assistant coach,
Butch Estes the Pirates struggled to a
53-52 record in Quinn's final four
years. Even an upset win in the 1972
Southern Conference Championships had
failed to live up to the potential of the
talent at ECU.
So in March, 1974, Patton was hired as
the new head coach, following Quinn's
dismissal. Little did many know then ECU
basketball was in for quite a change.
THE BEGINNING
When Patton first took over as head
coach, he outlined a new offensive
Strategy for the team, called “the Celtic
Influence”. Saying he “would like to create
On Our level with our people in our league
what the Celtics have done with their
People on their level.”
Patton asked only for the maximum
Capabilities out of every player on his
team, but the press and fans scoffed at
Patton. What talent did he have?
And for sure there was little proven
talent. In his four seniors, Patton had only
one player with more than a year’s varsity
experience, a 6-6 forward with a bum knee.
Patton's other three seniors had seen
action the year before, but none were
touted as particularly talented.
Before long, however, Patton and the
East Carolina squad would make many
critics into fans
THE SEASON
The road was not so simple,
though. ECU opened up with North
Carolina State, Duke and Alabama. Many
felt this opening stretch would be like
throwing the Christians to the lions.
DAVE PATTON
Patton in his first coliege head coaching
job took a 13-12 team and molded into a
19-9 NCIT participant.
For sure, the Pirates did come away
with three losses, but the 98-81, 79-73, and
99-86 losses to these three highly-touted
squads were no one-sided affairs.
Then came win streak number one,
UNC-Wilmington, VMI and Georgia State
all fell, to even the Pirates’ record at
3-3. Still, the Pirates looked sloppy, fust
like in years previous.
In the next two weeks, this stigma
changed. Three players, Gregg Ashom,
Bob Geter and Larry Hunt, began to
emerge as team leaders as ECU routed
Mercer 121-82 and the Citadel 11-81 at
home and then swung north to defeat two
supposedly stronger schools, St. Peter's
and Baylor, before the longest winning
streak in modern ECU history was snapped
at seven by Connecticut.

Cagers season brings class to program
The Pirates picked right up again,
though, with a six game winning streak
which found perhaps the biggest two week
stretch in the season.
On Jan. 20, ECU soundly trounced the
Davidson Wildcats, 110-78, in Davidson,
as Donnie Owens scored 30 points in @
remarkable 15 for 16 night.
The Davidson win was followed by @
101-80 rout over Richmond on the road, an
82-80 squeaker over the streaking VMI
Keydets in Lexington, and a 71-69
come-frommbehind win over the eventual
NCAA Division Two champions, Old
Dominion, in Norfolk.
The six-game winning streak brought
ECU's record fo 13-4 for the season and the
first confrontation with defending
champion Furman was approaching.
But, somewhere ECU lost something.
in the remaining eight regular season
games the Pirates only once
the caliber of play that they had achieved
in winning nine of ten games in January.
Did the Pirates peak?
“Well don't know whether we peaked
or not,” said Patton. “We definitely piayed
our best basketball in January, but I'm not
sure we peaked then.”
Following the January successes, what
happened next had to be a bit hard for the
ECU players and coaches to take.
BACK DOWN TO EARTH
Three losses in the Pirates’ next
four games followed. The Furman
match-up in Greenville, S.C. actually never
materialized as the Pirates’ coid-shooting
from the outside kept them behind in a
losing 86-76 effort to the eventual
conference champions.
Perhaps the biggest surprise of the
year followed as the Appalachian State
Mountaineers, 1-18 at the time, dealt
ECU's title hopes a major biow with a 78-71
upset in Boone.
What happened exactly would be hard
to tell, maybe the Pirates were simply past
that peak everyone had been talking about
or maybe they were not so good after ail.

season will last so much longer
Patton is very aware of this fact

We told the four seniors at the start of the
year that one of these days it would be a
privilege to play for East Carolina, and that
they were going to be the start of our
program
The success we have had this year is
attributed to these four seniors and they
can truly say they got it started at East
Carolina

Williams commented prior to the Pirate
Jeparture. “They have a new coach, a new
attitude about baseball, and it looks like
we will Nave to be ready to play to achieve
our Number one goal, which is to win the
Southern Conference championship.”
The Pirates will be looking to fatten up
some weak batting averages at the
Wildcats’ expense, and in what is the most
important statistic of all, put two marks in
the win column. The Pirates have split
their last three doubleheaders, and
Saturday's games will be the first of 10 ina

nesday and Friday, Saturday and Sunday
of next week, the Pirates will be at home
for more baseball at Harrington Field.
