Nearly 2,000 personsmostly studentstumed out for a rally on the mall
Tuesday to protest proposed tuition hikes for UNC schools.
Called by the North Carolina Association of Student Govermments, the rally
featured speakers from the student body, ECU administration, and Greenville
city government and merchants organizations.
Jim Honeycutt, SGA president, thanked the crowd for demonstrating their
opposition to the tuition increase $200 for in-state students and $300 for
out-of-state students proposed for next year by attending the rally.
This rally is part of a mass demonstration encompassing all 16 UNC
schools, Honeycutt told the crowd.
Next to speak was Bob Lucas, secretary-general of the N.C. Association of
Student Governments NCASG. Calling the demonstration the “first annual
stop-the-tuition-increase rally,” Lucas urged students to back the NCASG in
upcoming efforts to defeat the increases
"he NCASG has had 3,000 posters printed and distributed to the 16 UNC
Mpuses notifying students of the demonstrations,” Lucas said.
Phase Il of this effort will be student-administration delegations meeting
“ representatives in Raleigh to voice opposition to the increases.

tuition rally
“A state-wide phone-in and write-in campaign may aiso be organized by the
NCASG.”
Following Lucas, Cliff Moore, vice-chancellor for business affairs, recited
figures he’d compiled opposing ‘e tuition increase.
“IF this increase goes through ECU will have 430-450 less students than
counted on for the Fall Quarter,” Moore noted.
“ECU will lose about one-half of its out-of-state students, and $.5 million in
student aid.
“Generally, this increase will be offset by an overall loss of revenue.”
Moore conceded a funding problem for the universities does exist, but
argued any cuts in the state budget should be across the board and not just
limited to education. He also berated fiscal government that increases tuition
for state-supported institutions and tums around and provides money for
private schools.
Also speaking in opposition to the increases were inez Fridley, president of
the east coast chapter of the National Organization of Women: Dr. Frank Fuller,
Greenville city councilman; and Curtis Hendrix, president of the Greenville
Chamber of Commerce.
Although not attending the rally, ECU Chancellor Leo Jenkins supported the
anti-tuition increase efforts, according to Cliff Moore.

Curtis May, manager of the Student
Supply Store, said that, contrary to what
students might think, the service charge is
not a rip off
“The five dollar service charge does not
begin to cover the expenses incurred by
the administration when a check is
returned.”
According to May, the administration
follows a set procedure on every returned
check
First, anotice is mailed to the endorser
Stating a check has been returned and
giving the offender ten days to two weeks
to make the check good.
Next, final notice is sent stating the
intention of the administration to place the
endorser on the University’s “Bad Check
List” unless the check and service charge
is paid within another ten days to two
weeks
if this final notice brings no
satisfactory response, the person is placed
on the bad check list and a notice is sent to
the dean's office requesting that the
individual be prevented from attending
class
lf this procedure gets no action,
another set of letters are mailed (the last
being marked final) stating the intention of
the administration to bring legal action for
nonredemption with ten days to two
weeks
If, at the end of this prescribed period,
the endorser has still not redeemed the
check and service charge, the Office of the
Business Manager requests a warrant from
the county prosecutor for the arrest of the

Recently, spoke with Francis
Eddings, associate director of security,
and Capt. Earl Wiggins, investigator for
Campus Security about the rising problem
of drug abuse on campus. Francis
Eddings felt like he was more qualified to
answer the questions than Capt. Wiggins
so most of (he questions were directed to
him with Capt. Wiggins adding comments
where he felt they were needed
Fountainhead: VVhat percentage of the
students at ECU, in your opinion, smoke
marijuana?
Eddings: “It would be hard to say; have
no idea. There hasn't been a survey done
to tell us anything Conceming this matter.”
Fountainhead: What do you feel should
be done to prevent the widespread use of
marijuana here at ECU?
Eddings: “More education of the long
range effects. If people knew what was
going to happen to their bodies as a result
of smoking marijuana, the sensible ones
wouldn't smoke it. There has been recent
research on the matter that states that
marijuana causes brain damage and
possible chromosome defects.”
Fountainhead: Do you think you have
much influence on the people how
supposedly “abuse drugs” at ECU?
Eddings: Difficult to say how much
influence we have without following up
some of the people who we've arrested,
but hopefully we do.”
Wiggins: Most peopie who have good
grades don't smoke marijuana. Just talk
to the lower average students and find out
what they have to Say about it.”
Fountainhead: Do you think smoking,
marnjuana is worse than going downtown
and getting “drunk’?
Eddings: ‘That's difficult to say. Both
have harmful end results. A drunk could
Nave a car accident or may even become an
alcoholic. A person smoking marijuana
might go to harder drugs. However, I've
known people who smoke marijuana and
nothing ever amounted from it. would
say that it depends on the individual
Fountainhead: There are rumors circulat
iNg around campus that you have “Narc
SBI and even FBI agents working on
campus to prevent drug use from
increasing. Is there any substance to
these rumors
Eddings: “I'm not able to say anything
about undercover agents on campus. If we
did have them, wouldn't be able to say
anything about them. The SBI has an
office here in Greenville and they work on
drugs but we are not included in any of
their operations. The FBI doesn't work on
drug cases here so that is definitely just a
rumor
Fountainhead: Do you have any further
comments concerning the drug problem
on campus that you would like to make?
Eddings: ‘ wish there wasn't one
Wiggins If there wasnt a drug problem,
we could apply ourselves to another

After listening to the interview,
decided to find out what recent research
has come up with on the effects of
marijuana. obtained a copy of “Scientific
American” dealing with the subject of
marijuana. The article was written by
Lester Grinspoon, a clinical professor of

ed the most detailed clinical account of the
effects of marijuana ever written
bypsychiatrist Walter Bromberg. Thic
account described the psychia effe tS pe
the basis of many observations and talks
with people while they were under the
influence of marijuana and of his own
experience with the drug. ‘The intoxi-
cation,” he wrote, “is initiated by a period
of anxiety within 10 to 30 min. after
smoking. Within afew minutes he begins
to feel more calm and soon developes
definite euphoria; he becomes talkative

“Recently Lincoln D. Clark and Edwin

Ms. Saleeby is a public health nurse and
ead of the VD clinic at the Pitt County
Health Department
Veneral disease statistics are coliected
through county health departments for the
State Department of Human Resources in
Raleigh. Doctors in the state are required
by law to report not only veneral diseases
they treat, but also any communicable
diseases
“They do this by filling out what we call
a ‘report card’ which includes the patient's
name and the disease he has been treated
for,” said Ms. Saleeby
“The report card information is passed
on to the health department in the patient's
home county. This is where the crux of the
probiem of treating veneral diseases
occurs
“The health department must send a
case investigatcr to interview the
reportedly infected person. The interview-
er will try to learn all the person's recent
sexual contacts during the suspected
period of infection.”
Only two counties in the eastern
district have case investigators. They are
New Hanover and Pitt counties
Exactly which particular counties are
required to have an investigator depends
on the occurrence of VD in those counties.

“But the problem is patients don't like

the disease was contracted through an
extra-marital affair,” said Ms. Saleeby
“Consequently, those who can afford it,
will go to a family private doctor for
treatment instead of using the free county
clinic at the health department
“They may either ask the doctor, who
might be an old friend, or pay him to not
report his case to us. Most of them know
if they come to the clinic for treatment,
that their case will be reported and an
investigation will ensue.
“This is why it is virtually impossible to
control VD in Pitt County, this state, or
the whole country for that matter
“This occurrence of VD, whether it’s on

Gonorrhea, however, is not so readily
detectable. Gonorrhea in the male usually
incubates in three to nine days. its
symptoms promptly appear with buming

in the female, though, gonorrhea has
been described in Stewart M. Brooks’ “The

“pathologic enigma.”
Nine out of ten female victims may be

Ms. Saleeby said she has seen more
low income biacks than whites treated for

this to the fact that whites can more

“There also haven't been as many

Rather than try to overpower you, Carvailo

foundation allowing the lead and
secondary instruments to take off and
move the band
Two electric guitars are manned by one
Dana Belser and one Bill Joyner. Joyner,
formally of Southsound, gives you
excellent rhythm, impressive electric
leads, plus the added diversity of acoustic
guitar. Belser has been playing guitar for
only four years. It's hard to believe. His

Herald denies bias
To Fountainhead
After reading the letter by a Mr. C

would like to get something straight. You
have the wrong impression of the Heraid.
You should realize no matter what the

article was biased had it printed because
it spoke the truth and it basically pointed
its finger at you the students for not
Supporting the march. Why did only 50
Students out of over 10,000 students show
up for it? Is this why you're coming down
on Miss Washington so hard? Hey man,
the truth hurts
You criticize our paper but we're for real
and we re going to stay that way. You give
me the impression that the paper comes
down on the campus as a whole. It does
not, contrary to what some others may
believe. Even though you may believe in
what you Say, personally feel that Miss
Washington was severely offended. Our
purpose is to report on campus news from
the Black point of view. You act as if we

Rip-off
To Fountainhead
nad hoped the new Mendenhall
Student Center would be designed to meet
the students’ needs. My major complaint
is the rip-off that we are subjected to in the
snack bar’ section. From eight attempts
to eat breakfast there, enjoyed two
successes. Twice the door was locked
when it was supposed to be open, twice
they had no eggs, and twice they had no
jelly or butter for toast. This is the only
restaurant I've been in that runs out of
things every other day. Why can't they
order properly and match their menu?
What kind of restaurant opens at prime
selling times and closes down when
business siacks off? The place has no
hours posted, so it’s hit or miss whether
anyone can get an evening snack or coffee.
The price of milk just went up to thirty
cents a half-pint, and a banana split from
sixty to eighty-five cents. It doesn't seem
fair that an outside corporation should
make a profit off the students in their own
Student Center. What ever happened to a
student run, non-profit Cooperative, that
ws CeMury ahead m would serve the needs of the students?

Hockey?
To Fountainhead
Upon opening the Tues April 22nd
issue of the Fountainhead, eagerly
sought the article by the sports editor, Mr
John Evans, on the weekend hockey
tournament which marked the start of the
N.C. Collegiate Hockey League. must
say was greatly disappointed, therefore,
as a member of the tearn will put several
points in their proper perspective
The first and most appropriate is that
Mr. Evans was not at the tournament and
therefore has no sight to comment on the
caliber of play. ECU outmatched Carolina
and Duke skillfully as well as physically.
This can partially be attributed to the fact
that our team has been provided with a
maximum amount of practice time
whereas Duke and Carolina must drive to
ee
Greensboro to practice. Another item of
interest is that ECU's team constitution
allows all students and faculty to play
whereas Carolina and Duke allow only full
time students. !n order for us to compete
on a fitting basis we had to recruit people
from all levels of the Unviersity, because of
the smaller number of students from the
northern parts of the country, than either
of our adversaries. The SGA at Carolina
gave their tearn $1900 dollars to establish
themselves. Other than the ten odd
dollars donated by a few concemed
students on campus, our tearm has been
supported by local businesses in the
purchase of our equipment, valued around
$3,000. We accepted the handicap and all
other odds against us and once again a
“minor’ club sport defeated the “big
baddies” and have contributed another
laurel to our growing collection against
ACC teams. If we are so concerned on
entering the ACC, we shouid be interested
in proving our ability to compete on their
level in as many sports as possibie
As a conciusion, should ask Mr.
Evans that in the future he examine his
comments and rather than trying to follow
the footsteps of noted sportscasters, show
a little true interest in sports and write his
articles for the benefit of his tearm and the
sport itself. feel his comments have
severely hurt the newly formed league as
weil as our own tearn. Most of the people
in the area are new to the sport, but if Mr.
Evans had been at the Friday night game
against Carolina and seen close to 400
spectators, many of whom’'s only
knowledge of hockey was Ryan O'Neal's
brief scene on ice in “Love Story”,
screaming with more enthusiasm than
most sports receive, he might have written
with some of the same. Aliso Mr. Evans,
please research your material a ittie more
carefully. fear you have done much
damage to a new league which has been in
existence two months and still managed a
4 garne season. along with the team
thank the students, faculty and locals who
have supported us and offer Mr. Evans
two free front row tickets to next year's
games (behind the goal of course).
Sincerely,
Rodney F. McDonaid
Pride ?
To Fountainhead :
Dear “Student interested in pride”: De
price of de hat ain't de measure of de brain.
Also, speak for yourself.
Maybe your pride has something to do
with your clothes, but some of us girls
don't like teasing our hair and putting on
blue eyeshadow and paying $2 for hose
that run at the drop of a cigarette ash.
What you obviously interpret as
“slovenliness” is interpreted by those
bums as, “If you don’t like me without a
manicure and a look at my legs and six
hours at the beauty shop, stick it.” We
might as well be poster-boards.

Union will sponsor
apathy week next year
By BETTY HATCH
Co-News Editor
As a reflection of student apathy, the
12 committees of the ECU Student Union
will sponsor a “No Opinion Week" next
year, probably in September
“No Opinion Week” is the result of
questionnaires distributed by the
committee chairmen on registration day in
Spring Quarter, according to Den
Dickerson, present chairman of the Art
Exhibition Committee and chairman of the
Films Committee for 1975-1976
“The questionnaires consisted of 12
questions, one pertaining to each
committee of the Student Union,’
Dickerson said. “All of the questions were
multiple choice with the exception of the
question conceming Major Attractions,
which was an open question.
“The purpose of the questionnaire was
to find out how much interest there was in
various events the 12 committes were
considering presenting.
“The only thing that we, the Student
Union, found out from this questionnarie
was that the students here are more
apathetic than we thought,” he declared
“We realize a certain amount of apathy
iS present everywhere, but an average of
over 59 percent of the students polled
responded with a ‘no opinion’,” said
Pilot will do it for you
$15,000, $20,000, or $25,000
You're in your last year of school. You're thinki ats
Ng about the future.
Your career, your family, your goals. Life insurance, sure, but right now
you Nave no way to finance a program.
Dickerson
“The largest gripe that everyone seems
to have against the Union, lack of major
concerts, had the highest percentage of
‘no opinion’ responses, 67.9 percent.”
One thousand copies of the
questionnaire were distributed when
students picked up their spring quarter
scheduled in Memorial Gym. Of these,
only 506 were returned.
The other 494 were placed in the ‘no
opinion’ category because they were not
returned, according to Dickerson
The ‘no opinion’ responses were as
follows: Art Exhibition - 59.8 percent;
Artist Series - 54.4; Coffeehouse - 59.1;
Films - 549; Lecture - 59.4; Major
Attractions - 67.9; Minotiry Arts - 64.4;
Recreation - 60; Special Concerts - 57.9;
Theatre Arts - 54.9; Travel - 58; and Video
Tape - 62.3
“The ‘No Opinion Week’ is the only
thing which has ever been an effort by the
entire Union,” Dickerson said. “We're just
doing this for a response
“The effect will be dramatic because
we're really going to extremes,” he added.
None of the usual activities sponsored
by the Student Union will be heid during
‘No Opinion Week,’ according to
Dickerson

after several hours of sometimes very
emotional debate, the House voted on

Aye, thus releaving the Speaker
fromnhaving to vote to break the tie. Even
though they won on second reading,
things did not look good for ERA
supporters. And sure enough after several
hours of debate on Wednesday, when the

and recreational tournaments.’
Added Barnhill, “In addition, the MRC
has moved along with the growing political
awareness at ECU by giving the dormitory
men a more powerful vote on carpus,
along with increased involvement in
student organizations by MRC members.”
Checks, continued from page 3.
Julian Vainwright, assistant to the
business manager, whose office makes up
and distributes the bad check list and
handies requests for prosecution said,
“We don't want to charge or prosecute
anyone, but we simply have to. We are
getting too many returns, and if we don't
prosecute, it will get worse.”
The criteria for having one’s name
placed on the bad check list are one
continually unredeemed check, or three
bad checks in a period of nine months
In addition, the first bad check returned
after having one’s name removed from the
bad check list automatically places the
person back on the list.
How does one manage to have his name
removed trom the list?
“Simply paying the check is not
enough,” said Vainwright whose office
also handies all bad check appeals.
Each case is handied by Vainwright on
a personal basis with no set standard for
removal. Explanation of the error and
documented proof of credit are the basic
requirements.
Barnhill then recognized the remaining
members of his executive council for their
service: Treasurer, John Evans, Cor-
responding Secretary, Steve Woods; and
Recording Secretary, Jack Wonds
Hinnant in a shor speech expressed
hope the MRC would continue its growth
next year
How many bad checks are floating
around’ What is the percentage of
increase?
While everyone agrees the nurnber of
bad checks are on the increase, no one
interviewed seems to know for sure by
how much or how many.
Mrs. Frances Dorey confirmed that 63
names are presently on the ECU bad check
list and that the Student Bank is now
holding over $1,000 worth of bad checks.
While conceding that a number of baci
checks are the result of innocent errors ir.
addition, she believes the service charge
and bad check list are fair
“When a person signs his name to 4
check, he or she is stating that the
necessary funds are availabie,” said Mrs
Dorey.
The problem gces beyond the campus.
Of 15 area businesses contacted, ali
agreed bad checks have increased. Eight
have restricted checks to the amount of
purchase only and four have stopped
cashing checks entirely

Time-out
STILL IMPROVEMENT NEEDED
Previously, had hoped to dwell on another topic, but after the publication of
Tuesday s story conc eming the North Carolina Collegiate Ice Hockey Championships,
fecided to comment on some of the static have received concerning my story. The
most bitter criticism came from a friend, but friends can have arguments, and fraternity
brother. yes we do have differences, Rodney McDonald (see the Forum)
And after reading the story several times, as well as while writing it, can see where
Mr McDonald would be angry, especially considering his devotion to the ECU Ice
Hockey program as a member himself
So. Mr. McDonald this column is principally in answer to you, but hope it will help
lear the air with a lot of other people. Or at least, help to clear up some
terpretations
rst off. true. was not at the game to cover it personally, so asked Mr. McDonaid to
write an account of the game and arranged a time and place for me to get the article from
YT)
We ever got the article from Mr. McDonald in time to meet a deadline. was
forced to write one myself from what had heard and read in local papers conceming the
weekend S games
My first reaction, after returning from out of town, when read ECU had won by 17-3
scores was in a humorous tone considering what the tournament's outcome was. Part
ularly, considering the ECU team itself had been so worried about how they would
aif believe it was said to me they would be happy splitting the two games
But, was very happy with the ECU team’s success, nonetheless
However
Most individuals who know something about hockey would more than likely agree
with me that a 17-3 score is hardiy what you would call competitive. And thus, said so
ny account of the game (even a 7-6 score is considered a lot of scoring)
Might add, that in the article which Mr. McDonaid eventually gave me a day later he
nade no mention of the fact ECU's rink is hardly regulation size. Certainly, no fault of
the tean but the ice House is basically a skating rink and not a hockey rink, although
to wonder lately
Mr McDonaid’s article was a good account of a participant's observation of the
ntest. Dut was little else, and basically, one-sided
Without dwelling on the literary quality of the articie, for that is not the issue, it would
been hard for me to print the article by Mr. McDonaid anyway
far as the account of the games themselves go, Mr.McDonaid and seem to
"e “goings of nm much the same way, so assume it is my two summation
which hottens Mr. McDonald's temper
Mr McDonald, did sign the article because knew there would be some static
i vanted to make sure it was directed in the proper direction
key fans, am not trying to hurt the chances of success for a hockey league in
North Carolina. In fact, as aclub football athlete myself, am greatly in favor of such an
- ery ai experiment, tr ne had its faults and it was these which was
ne way, Make te of. was not “chilling the hockey team’s
x mMolis ments
Where others have disagreed with what ! wrote, still others have seen what was
after we spoke about it. A luxury which is not normally enjoyed, but in this
» which was available to Mr. McDonald also
tead. he chose to write to the FOUNTAINHEAD and am in truth, glad that he did
ee, if he had not, there would not be this explanation and perhaps still others would
yet the “wrong impression. So, Mr. McDonaid, you are to be commended
e again would like to point out that a 17-3 score is not my idea of competition
but instead a one-sided or “awesome as Mr. McDonaid described it, display of superior
quality of one tearn over another. Still, feel, if the league is to make the most of what it
accomplish, more balance needs to be achieved
r
The ECU Hockey club is good and is in need of better financial support. But, the
choo! administration should not be criticized for not supporting the tearm because the
not organized enough to do ECU any athietic good
But, the SGA should support the team. The ice House, between publicity reasons
and just plain interest, donated the money from ticket sales to the team, and several area
residents were more than generous witN ‘their contributions. think SGA support should
@eague, as Ss NOW
be fortncoming
Judging t y scores only, aS well as the statistics, Carolina and Duke both seemed to
be fairly evenly matcned, but ECU's difference in recruitment regulations and practice
time gave them a distinct advantage, not to mention the “cozy” home rink advantage
if the league is to succeed, and if those who say they are trying to establish a league
are truly sincere, then a constitution providing for equal eligibility requirements for all
teams should be drawn up, this 's a necessity in establishing a good league with equal
competition
But, if play waS so competitive and evenly-matched, why did the excellent crowd of
400 on Friday night decrease so much for the next two games?
Basically, was just trying to point out some of the negative aspects of the weekend
atfair and not trying to “ruin” the league's chances of success
In conclusion, am in favor of an increased effort to push collegiate hockey in North
Carolina by the schools themselves, but feel the participants fromm ECU may have been
to caught up in the emotion of the “routs” to realize although it was the first of its kind.
the weekend tournament, like every initial experiment, had its shortcomings, but by no
means was a failure
As for not covering the tournament, am very sorry, but then can not cover every
sport on the weekend, and yes, even , have to go home once in a while

Netters look upward
By SAM ROGERS
Staff Writer
For the last two seasons, the East
Carolina tennis team has failed to score a
single point in the Southern Conference
Tournament and consequently has
finished at the bottom of the conference
for two consecutive years
Pirate head tennis coach Wes Hankins
feeis things could change this year when
the annual Southern Conference Tennis
Championships opens today at The Citadel
in Charleston, S.C
“ think we will definitely finish
somewhere higher than we have the last
two years based on how we've played
during the regular season,” said
Hankins. “We have a very young team and
think they've made excellent progress
this year. Although can't forsee us
finishing in the top division of the
conference, surely don't see how we can
finish in last place again.”
This year the Southern Conference
Tournament will be set up similar to the
Atlantic Coast Conference. If a player or
doubles team loses his first round match
he will be able to enter the consolation
brackets. Each team is awarded points for
winning Consolation matches as well as in
the championship brackets
This system will give us a much better
chance of getting more points,” said
Hankins. “It will also enable our players to
get more tournament experience instead of
being completely eliminated after the first
round
TOM DURFEE
The Pirates enter the tournament with
a 6-8 overall record and a 1-4 conference
Slate with two matches remaining with
Atlantic Christian and Campbell after the
tournament. East Carolina has dropped
conference matches to The Citadel
Richmond, William and Mary, and to the
defending conference champions Ap-
palachian State. The victory Sunday over
VMI is the Pirates lone conference win this
season and was also the first conference
match ECU has won in two years
The Pirate netters have shown
considerable improvement during the
second half of the season and have won
three of their last five matches. “I've been
encouraged with the play of the team
during the last two weeks.” remarked
Hankins. “One thing this team does have
iS the desire to win and they will give their
maximum effort.’
Hankins indicated he w: Oy
