Summer fees too high
While ECU summer schoo! students are apparently getting their money's worth for
tuition this year, those same students are just as apparently being short changed when it
comes to getting their money's worth for student fees
Summer school students are required to pay $23.00 in “Other University Fees” for
aach session of summer school in addition to $47.00 for tuition and $8.00 for infirmary
services. The latter two costs are justified but summer school students are being taken
for a ride when it comes to the “other fees” for the most part
A breakdown of where those summer fees go show that athletics takes $4.50 a
session. or $9.00 for both summer sessions, the biggest cut of any department that
shares the surmmer schoo! revenue
Yet, for that largest slice the athletic department offers the summer school students
less than any other organization that dips into the summer schoo! coffer
To be exact, the only organized sports event the ECU Athietic Department sponsors
this summer is Summer League Basebal ECU has 16 home games and for his $9.00
summer schoo! dues the student can get in free
While the number of Summer League Basebali games is exactly four times the
number of home football games that next Fall's students will be entitled to see free,
there seems to be a large gap between the going $9.00 fee and the services rendered by
the Athietic Depart ment
Then, there is the case of the $8.50 paid by summer schoo! students into the Student
Government Association
Quite frankly, the SGA in summer is little more than a care taker government. There
S no student legisiature, all money matters are nandied by the SGA President,
Vice-President and Treasurer
Clubs funded by the SGA are for the most part inactive, largely because they have
exhausted their budgets and will not be refunded until the legisiature Convenes in eaarty
Orci ober
Ot course the SGA does give the student a little something for his money, a very little
something for the most part
The SGA office is open and raady to aid the student in anyway possible. Then there is
the jegal aid service. Student loan services are also available and then there is the
FOUNTAINHEAD. But, nobody is going to suggest that FOUNTAINHEAD is worth $8 50
for three months. The NEW YORK TIMES is almost that cheap
The Student Union and the intramurals programs are by far the student's best buy for
their money this summer
The Union offers a credible siate of films and other programs plus the use of
Mendenhal! for $4.00 a quarter Not a bad deal for the student who will take advantage of
it
The intramurails program for $2.50 could also be classified as a “decent deal” in these
days of double digit inflation
Bond retirement ges is a hazy area in the overall fees picture. Again, for the student
who attends the university throughout the entire year helping to pay for Mendenhall,
Ficklen Stadium and Minges Coliseum during the summer is not that unreasonable
But, once again for many students who simply attend summer school the $19.00
bond retirement item is another np-off
For the student who will be back in the Fail to attend athletic contests and join SGA
ganizations, the gap between goods and services rendered is smalier
But, for many students who will not be back in the Fall the $9.00 athletic fee and
$8 50 SGA take is little short of a rip-off
it 1S true that the organizations, while worth their going price or not, need funding 12
months a year But, the current system requiring summer school students who get very
ttle to show for it to pull an equal load is simply not fair
Hopetully the legislature will look into the current funding system next Fall and make
some meaningtul Suggestions for restructuring the program
“Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without
newspapers, or newspapers without government, should not hesitate a moment to
preter the latter.”

Jenkins deserves the credit
‘Weicome to East Carolina University, home of the newest four year degree granting

week in the onentation issue prepared for incoming freshmen
Anc, while that line was a little premature last week, the words will ring true later thi:
week when the North Carolina General Assembly puts the finishing touches on the state
budget for the coming biennium
Both the State House and Senate included money for the med schoo! expansio:
their budgets passed last Friday. While the House and Senate budget versions sti nave
to be brought in line, money for expansion of the long sought medical facility

When that budget is finished and the four year med schoo! becomes a working reality
more than a few North Carolina citizens deserve a word of thanks for their efforts over the

The charge that confidential, written

Henry Jackson, DWash. Despite White
House denials, two Nixon letters to the
ow deposed Vietnamese strongman
ipsequently surfaced
” Nov 14,1972, Nixon gave Thieu his

Economic Disaster: Many economists

vackage Could lead to economic disaster
he President's plan to add another
ollar to the price of every barre! of
‘
imported oil, it is estimated, will cost
CONsUMers a Staggering six billion dollars
a year
Previously Ford nad already added a
Gollar import tax. So the total $2
surcharge will add up to an extra $12
Diilion that Americans must pay for
petroleum products
The President is trying to cut down oil
use Dy making it too expensive to
waste On top of this, he wants to
decontroi the price of domestic oil. This
move, if it isokayed by Congress, wii! cost
the consumers still another $16 billion
What ali this means is that the price of
gasoline will be going up to about 75 cents
agailon. Congress, of course, can change
of cancel Ford's actions. But right now,
Congress can't seem to get together on
anything but vacation dates
The oi! companies, meanwhile, are
applauding Ford's moves
Nuclear Advocate: in the backrooms,
Oetense Secretary Jarmes Schiesinger has
urged President Ford to use tactical
nuclear weapons to stop the next
Communist aggression against a U.S. ally
Schlesinger has North Korea particular-
ly in mind. He fears the Communists
might be encouraged by the fall of
Cambodia and Vietnam to atternpt to take
over South Korea
lf the North Koreans should strike,
Schiesinger favors hitting back with
limited nuclear warfare. He wants 70 put
more empahsis on developing mobile
nuclear weapons as the best defense
against future Vietnams
At first, President Ford didn't like
Schiesinger and wanted to replace him
with Donaid Rumsteid. The President
thought Rumsfeid would be more
successful at handling Congress
But the President has grown to respect
Schiesinger and to listen to him. it
remains to be seen, however, whether the
President will adopt Schiesinger’s idea of
limited nuclear wars
Playing Bail: The Air Force has issued
orders to ensure that congressmen have a
place to play softball this summer. The
generais picked out a softball diamond at
Bolling Air Force Base, just a few minutes
from Capitol Hill, and designated it the
“congressional softball fieid.” They then
ordered “any groups” playing in the are to
“relinquish the field when congressional
groups arrive”

Young peopie, tuned in on the social

accomplishment, fame or job satisfaction?

But is youth of the 70's up to

ECU Chancellor Leo Jenkins last week
Jenounced what he termed “maneuvering

Addison Reese former NCNB
Chairman of the Board and presently
Chairman of the Board of Directors of
UNC at Charlotte, was quoted in a
Charlotte Observer May 11 editorial as
saying the ECU Medical Schoo! was “the
most expensive error ever made by the
eg: Slature
Jenkins called Sid Warner, a local
NCNB official, May 13 to say that “these
terogatory remarks would not be recerved
kindly by our people throughout the state
Warner wrote a memo May 14 saying
Jenkins had made “not-so-verled threats
to withdraw ECU deposits of $200
thousand.” This memo was released only
ast week during a particularly sensitive
penod of decision-making conceming the
funding of the Medical School
In an interview with WGNL radio on
Friday, June 6, Warner stated that “NCNB
has no position on the Med School,” and
that “personally and seifishliy,” he was in
favor of the ECU Med School
Warner emphasized this was ‘strictly
my opinion, and not that of the bank
tself He said he believed Reese's May
11 comments were of the same nature
The timing of Warner's release of the
memo was a question raised by Chancellor
Jenkins
must raise the question regarding the
timing and circumstances of the release of
this memo, said Jenkins. ‘It was
apparently timed for a very critical period
in the final legisiative decision-making
process '
Added Jenkins, “ feel confident the
people of North Carolina on both sides of
the issue recognize this maneuvering for
whai it is.”
In the memo, Warner had written, “
listened very patiently to his (Jenkins)
ramdiings and not-so-veiled threats to
discontinue any Geposit relationships with
NCNB if this sort of thing continues.”
Jenkins commented, “! shall continue
to do all in my power to get the things
desperately needed by our people. The
Medical School is but one of our needs

Furthermore, the people know me well
enough to recognize that do not rarnble or

Mr. Jenkins,” Warner continued
When asked if he intended to withdraw
ECU deposits from NCNB, Jenkins said
though he had made no threats, he was
“not averse” to doing this “if their people
keep hammering at us.”
Jenkins added, “They (NCNB) say they
want to grow with the East and all that. If
they mean it, they should practice
it. We've had marvelous cooperation with
other banks who have tried to grow with
us
The present NCNB Chairman of the
Board, Luther H. Hodges, said the bank
holds no position on the Medical Schoo!
and there is “nothing the bank can or
wants to do.”
Hodges is a member of the UNC Board
of Governors, which last Novernber
recommended the General Assembly buiiq

than the original two-year prograr

Another NCNB bank official Ber

that we're doing one heck of a lot in Pi

after much debate

By JOHN EVANS
Both the North Carolina House and
Senate gave strong backing to the East
“golina medical schoo! last week in
massing proposed budgets for 1975-77
as the House passed a $6.6 billion
budget for ned year, which provides for
$28 million dollars for the medical school
expansion, he North Carolina Senate
§ H.L:H
ea
passed, 44-0, a widely different budget
which called for $32 million for the medical
schoo! Despite the different suns. these
moves reaffirmed the previous dacisions
On @xpansion of the medical schoo!
The moves, however, did not come

Tison had triggered a Friday showdown
in the House on the issue of the med
school’s ‘clusion in the budget for
1975-77. Tison’s fight centered around a
move by the House Appropriations
Committee to remove the €CU
appropriation from the budget and put it to
a referendum vote. This bili had been
sponsored by Mathis in the Appropriations
Committee, but the House voted down the
Gepletion of ECU money by 70-42
Mathis had sought a referendum vote in
an attempt to find another way of funding
the medical school, but said she was not
against the schoo! itself
However, many ECU supporters
believed the bill to be an attempt by its
backers to block the construction of the
medical school completely
“This is just another effort by the
Mecklenburg County delegation to kill our
medical school,” said Rep. Larry P. Eagies
of Edgecombe County
However, House majority leader
Kitchin Josey called for a motion to table
Tison's motion, saying it “would deal an
absolute death biow to the ECU Madical
School.”
The House approved Josey’s motion to
tabie, killing Tison’s amendment
The House and Senate budgets will
now go to a joint conference cornittee to
iron out differences in the two budgets
before it receives final approval of the
legislature and becomes law
Upon receiving word of the legisiature's
actions on Friday, ECU Chancelior Leo
Jenkins seid he was “very pleased with the
news.”
Jenkins also expressed confidence that
the final version of the budget wouid
provide the money needed for the
development of the four-year medical
schoo
Aiong with the iegisiature’s moves,
other developments on the medical schoo!
increased Jenkins’ hopes for quicker
moves to complete the schoo!
On Friday, Jenkins reported ‘he
agreement between Pitt Memorial Hospital
and ECU to use the county's new hospital
for medical school teaching purposes
The agreement will save about $6 million
by eliminating the need to construct a
separate teaching facility
The agreement with the hospital,
already under construction, also called for
the addition of a 100-bed tower for the ECU
Medical School. The agreement must
meet approval of the UNC Board of
Govemors and accreditation officials

VENUS AND MARS ARE
ALRIGHT TONIGHT
PAUL McCARTNEY AND WINGS
By BRANDON TISE
Paul McCartney and Wings newest
uibum, VENUS AND MARS ARE ALRIGHT
TONIGHT. is a step down from their
previous albumBAND ON THE RUN. Asa
matter of fact. VENUS is barely up to par
with 1973 sRED ROSE SPEEDWAY.
The McCartney ballads on this new
aibum are, for the most part, weak, both
yrically and musically. These ballads are
halanced Out, however, with quite a few
jood rockers, excellent musicianship, and
a superb engineering job
The album's lack of good lyrics perhaps
an be justified in VENUS AND MARS in
that it is a good time album and the
feelings conveyed by the music are more
oortant than the words themselves
me is eft expecting a little more
nventiveness from McCartney following
BAND ON THE RUN.
McCartney s synthesizer work has
subsided a bit on this album, along with
he use f his wife as backur
vocalist. Linda appears less frequently
and for a shorter time than ever before
Some of the lyncs are third grade level
such as Youre my baby and love
youYou can take a pound of loveAnd
Ook it in the stew. and “Ah, she tastes
ike wineSuch a human being x
tivine On she feels like sun
The album 1S not a total loss, however
The title track “Venus and Mars” is very
similar to “Little Lamb Dragonfly” off
the RED ROSE SPEEDWAY album but is
less interesting. The song, first on the
album, seques beautifully into “Rock
Show’. which is one of the album's better
uts. It is a “rockin’ little record” with a
good bndge and promises more than is to
come on the remainder of the album
The third song, “Love in Song”, is a
McCartney ballad which rates a “C” pius at
best Hyect Most to the line “Happiness
in the homeland,” which has nothing to do
with the rest of the song. The line sticks
ut Quite noticeably
This line doesn't stick out as much as
the entire next song, “You Gave Me the
Answer
lt would've made a great song for The
Great Gatsby for it is very Twentyish
Much like “Honey Pie” from the Beatles
White Album, Paul is putting us all on.
wont Say that it is a bad song, but what's
t doing on this aibum
The next song “Magneto and Titaniun
Man” 18 a polite little rocker which comes
from the stable of the McCartney fantasy
world
The last song on the first side is
Letting Ge The cut is one of the funkier
uts on the album with some dazzling
juitar work and brass similar to “Savoy
Truffle’ lt ends the album's first side with
the best music so far
The second side opens with a reprise of
the title cut which is aimost double ir
ength and quality Like the first side, it
segues into the second song, perhaps not
as smoothly, though. The second SONG Is

Spirits of Ancient Egypt”. A lyrical
question mark, “Spirits” sounds more
mystical than it really is
it has ‘fantastic?’ lines such
as “Youre my baby and know you
knowYou could sell an elevator to
Geronimo
The next song, “Medicine Jar” is the
only composition not written by
McCartney, and it is a real rocker With
nice guitar breaks, it is definitely one of
the best songs on the album
The next song, “Call Me Back Again”,
has McCartney screaming out the lyrics in
the sarne fashion of RAM®S “Monkberry
Moon Delight’. The tune will be
recognized by many as very familiar -
wonder from where?
Listen to What the Man Said” is the
next song Recorded in New Orlaans with
heip from Tom Scott and Dave Mason, it
has gotten quite a bit of AM air play. No
one could miss the fact that Tor Soott is
playing, but Dave Mason's virtuosity
doesn't show at all it is a fine cut which
would have also been at home on BAND
ON THE RUN.
The last cut, “Treat Her Gently - Lonely
Old People”, is a more serious “When I'm
Sity-Four and shows again what
McCartney can do when he tries. Nice
backup vocals by Linda McCartney
contribute to the song's quality
Crossroads Theme” is tacked on at the

the side. The strength of the second side's

Title IX: a question of money and interpretation
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
This is the first of @ four-part series on
intercollegiate athietics nationally and at
East Carolina
tthe new Tithe DC regulations Grawn up
by the Department of Health, Education
and Welfare are not vetoed and become
atlactive on June 2), the state of collegiate
ghietics. for both women and man, could
spange drastically, according to Parneta
Straithairn of Stanford University
You will now see more schools where
women are on varsity teams, such as
tannis, golf and swimming, where brute
srength and similar matters such as
height are not factors
it's a cultural thing that’s important,
‘s always Deen respectable for girts to be
xod swimmers, golfers and tennis
olayers and naturally they are going to be
aead of those who like basketball,
softball, et
But the NCAA and many athietic
jeoartmments around the nation fear that
the new Title IX regulations will increase
the financial burden on the school's
aiready inflation-riddied budget. This fear
s held despite HEW’s insistence that a
school need provide equal opportunity and
not equa! funds to the women.
NCAA representative Michael Soott
commented following HEW’s rulings that
we believe the refusal of the
adrnistration to afford such treatment to
reveNUe DrOdUCING SPOOFS, particularly at a
ime of severe economic difficulty for all
sducational institutions, may well signal
ine enc of the intercollegiate prograrns as
we have known thern in recent years.”
Scott's statement pointed out the need
to permit income generated by revenue
producing sports to be used in maintaining
the operation of these sports rather than
be diffused over the entire athietic
program. it is the revenue from the major
sports such as football, hockey and
basket bali which Scott feels will have to
be used to provide the “necessary funds”
to Qive equal Opportunity to women sports
competitors
Under the 1972 Title IX regulations
schools may provide separate tearns for
males and fernaies or a single tearn open
to both Sexes when selection is based on
compet itive skil!
The schools, however, would not be
required to allow women to try out for
contact sports such as boxing, wrestling,
rugby. ioe hockey, football, basketball and
others which involve bodily contact as its
purpose or major activity
However, HEW secretary Casper
Weinberger points out that schools must
provide separate programs for women in
these sports if there is sufficient interest
“If sufficient interest is present to
wartant separate programs, then colleges
can not refuse to offer contact sports to
the women.”
One of the biggest arguments by Title
LX opposition is that the bill, as outlined by
HEW, would mean equal expenditures to
women a5 0 més, which institutions
could not provide
“Equal opportunity doesn't necessarily
require equality of expenditures,” said
Weinberger. “The schoo! has got to try to
get a more realistic result and desire to get
rid of some of the discrimination against
women in sports.”
In addition, many women's programs
involved in the Association of inter-
collegiate Athletics for Women insist they

gon't want to be absorbed into programs
presently designed for men and which
control the athietic money pouring into the
school
Straithaim explains, “A lot of women
feel they have been moving to develop
programs for women and if they were
absorbed into other programs - they would
be right back where they started, on the
short end of everything .
A larger nummer of major colleges nave
already been upgrading women’s athletic
programs before the Title IX question
arose, but still many schools are fearful
that increased funding may phase out the
strength of an overall athletic prograrn
Adds the NCAA, “Excess revenue from
football and basketbal! have at many
colleges defrayed the cost of a large
number of men's and women's
inter-collegiate programs in other sports
and regulations which do not make clear
that revenues from a particular sport may
be first used to maintain the program in
that sport inevitably means erosion of that
Sport's program and the consequent loss
of revenue in the sport.”
Big 10 commissioner Wayne Duke feels
that the possibility of dephasing major
sports exists even without the Title x
Question
“ think the possibility exists even
without the introduction of women’s
programs because of the financial crisis,”
said Duke,
What the latest controversy in the
battle over Title (X evolves into is a battie
over money and control of that money. At
this time, the battie comes at an already
troubled financial time for college
athietics. Ultimately the success and
effect which Title X achieves will be
basically dependent on how athietic
depariments can meet the increased
financial burdens and in what manner they
choose to interpret “necessary funds” and
“equal opportunity.”
