Points well taken
In an interview last Tuesday, SGA President Jimmy
Honeycutt made several good points when he indicated that
there were some areas the student government needed to
reorganize.
Most notably mentioned by Honeycutt were the size of the
legislature itself and the budget making process.
Ideas about restricting the size of the legislature have been
kicked around for some time. Last year's SGA President, Bob
Lucas, favored a legislature with membership based on the
various schools and departments on campus.
Other ideas on changing the legislature deal with graduate
student representation, and the composition of the legislature
from dorm students, day students and fraternities and
sororities.
Currently there are few actual rules concerning the
composition of the legislature and at times certain groups on
campus have been able to forrr powerful voting blocks-blocks
that were not always in the best interest of the entire student
body.
Restructuring the legislature could lead to fairer
representation and more efficiency, as Honeycutt pointed out.
The only problem is to come up with the formula that will
carry out these plans that will truely be fair to all and that a
majority of the student body could accept.
Most everyone agrees it is a problem. But finding answers is
not all that easy.
On the budget matter Honeycutt has touched on one of the
most crucial areas that the legislature and campus organizations
that depend on student fees for operation have to hassel over
each year.
Currently, the budget making process of the legislature does
not begin until early October, a full month into the new school
year. Then it takes at least another month for some budgets to
move through the legislature for approval.
So, for some, the budget wait can be until November, almost
the end of a full third of the school year, before final budgets
are approved.
Of course having to wait so long for a budget and going so
long a time with an unclear budget future does not make for the
best in planning and coordinating programs.
Honeycutt's suggestion for a yearly budget at the first of the
year to allow clubs and organizations to know what is available
is well taken.
There must be some type plan that can be implemented that
will give campus groups who depend on student fees quicker
access to those fees for their various programs.
Perhaps the SGA should seriously consider budget
making in the Spring for the coming year. That, of course, has
many problems involved, but at the same time it could be no
worse than the present budget making process that is so slow.
Another possible idea might be for the SGA to move up
elections to a date closer to the beginning of school which
would mean the legislature could begin work on budgets earlier
than the present mid-October starting date.
These are just a couple of ideas and there are others.
The important thing is that there must be a better way of
budget making for the SGA and hopefully one can be
found?soon.
to deckle whether we should have a government without
without government, I should not hesitate a moment to

What's In a name?
What's in a name? Needless to say, a lot.
But when it comes to the name of this newspaper, one has
to stop and wonder.
What's a Fountainhead?
Some of the members of the Legislature and Executive no
doubt have their own ideas-mostly not fit for publication.
Then a Fountainhead is the name of a novel. It might be the
head of a fountain.
At one time the student newspaper was located in the hay
loft of Wright and it was geographically close to the only
fountain on campus. But, that is stretching it a bit too far to
name the student newspaper after the school's infamous
fountain that stays filled with Joy dishwashing liquid more than
it fioe water
The paper was moved to the Publications Center last Spring
quarter so now we are removed from the fountain area.
Prior to being tabbed as the Fountainhead, the paper was
called the East Carolinian. While that name is not that great, at
least it had some relation to the university and the campus. You
at least knew what the East Carolinian represented. The
Fountainhead meanwhile sounds like some underground rag
printed by the same people who would kidnap a newspaper heir
or plant pipe bombs at the United Nations.
The name just does not relate to a growing university in
eastern North Carolina.
Hopefully, the Publications Board will agree to a name
change as will the Legislature.
We don't have any name suggestions to make. But, for sure
we don't like the present name.
Hopefully, the Publications Board will agree to a name
change as will the Legislature.

Writer cites Sullivan' s
efforts for students
To Fountainhead:
I noted with great interest the letter
from Representative Hicks in a recent
issue of the paper. I'd like to add my
thoughts on the controversy of "Tim
Sullivan, animal, vegetable or com-
munist
Some few short years ago, I had the
unique experience of being in the same
high school with Tim Sullivan, who held
many different posts during the three
years, including those of junior and
senior class presidents, editor of the
paper, etc.
Poem notes
effects of war
He told her:
You are asking me how I am doing?
How do you think I am?
Nothing left to me
My nation is burning
My brothers are dying
My friends' sons are pieces
Caused by the devil bombs
You are asking how I am doing?
How do you think I am?
Nothing left to me
The branches of Lebanon are
Machine guns
The Roses are bullets and shells
The daffodils down in the valleys
Are Cannons, bombs and jet fighters
And you are asking how I am doing?
The smell of hate over my house
The sound of the explosions over my
head
The color of the blood in my eyes
Where am I now you asked!
Here I am, still in my shelter
Till now darling
There is going to be a time
For a bomb to strike my window
To bum my papers
And finish my life
Who is doing this?
I do not know darling
This is horrible, terrible
The worst danger an innocent
Faces in this life is not to
Know who is the murderer
If I know who he is
I can fight him
Or ignore him
Or pull his hateful mask
But he is an unknown criminal
A criminal that I'll never believe
It's from the country
From the country of light, education and
civilization
From the country of beauty and paradise
From the country of love, humanity and
tolerance
And you ask me
Where I am going
I who use to predict the future
For thousands of years to come
Now I can not predict a minute
The darkness and hate covers
My mind, my brother's mind
And the whole people
Now all I can see
Is a black, black wall
No light any more
Who is Lebanon
Lebanon alone
This holy nation
What ever happens to him
Whenever bad incidents
Put him on the wood of the cross
He is going to rise the third day
Samir All Al-Awar
Senior in Philosophy
Our high school underwent much
during this time - controversy, change,
name calling, and all the other traits
found in a student government situation.
As Tim was spearheading the changes,
he took his share of verbal and
journalistic abuse. However, looking back
I see that all the changes he advocated
were good ones - and it would be very
difficult to find someone who would not
criticize the progressive moves the class
(and the school) made during these
years.
As a matter of fact, it was kind of
refreshing to have a "student leader who
didn't fit the 4-H, Ivory Snow image.
Which brings us to the present. Mr.
Sammy Hicks, who showed us that
Darwin's theory of evolution can work in
reverse, ruined his case with that letter.
He's like a lot of people at SGA or the
Student Union, who really believe that
students at ECU care about proper image
and procedure, and compromise. We've
had these 'qualities' shoved down our
throats all our lives by amateur
politicians (like Mr. Hicks). This is why
each year 25 percent of the students
elect the same old do-nothing SGA
administrations - and then sit back to
watch the SGA and Fountainhead play
political mind-games with each other
while we yawn and hope for
something better.
Placing matters on the line, Tim
Sullivan is a politician. But, unlike Mr.
Hicks, he gets things done. The Rebel
and WECU can thank him for being
around today, Operation Freebird, which
paved the way for self-limiting hours for
girls' dorms, and the immense amount of
work he has put in for the students over
the Halloween incident, including legal
and practical help for those in trouble in
court. What thanks did Tim Sullivan get
for these things7 He got called a
"wheeler deale by Mike Taylor,
Fountainhead's ulc -in-residence.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not
anti-Hicks. Why should I be? He hasn't
done anything - as a matter of fact,
besides his nasty letter, he's done
nothing. I'd like to know just who
Representative Hicks represents. Better
to be an octopus than a performing seal,
right Sammy?
I had hoped that college would leave
all this behind, but there's nothing new
under the sun. Tim Sullivan's record
clearly shows that he is at work - and not
writing letters to criticize others. I think
that's what most p jple want from their
representatives
How about Sullivan for mayor?

Student supports name
change idea for paper
To Fountainhead:
I am writing a letter about the
proposed name change for the
Fountainhead. I would like to say that I
am in favor of a new name, whatever it
may be, as long as it isn't obscene. I
don't think I would like to be associated
with a school whose paper is
remembered by posterity as Turddy
Times and Dispath, or something of this
nature.
The old Fountainhead, may it rest in
peace, is no longer at the top of Wright,
no longer the Fountainhead of Greenville
news reporting. What will take its place?
Before this question can be answered we
have to ask, "How will it be changed?"
The by-laws of the Publications Board
explicity says that a referendum is
required after the staff and Pub Board
approve the name, and the legislature
approves the referendum before the name
can be changed.
I guess the students are out of luck
this time because they no longer are
required to vote on the issue, provided
the by-laws go through the Legislature
Students haven't been too responsive to
referendums in the past, myself included,
so I'm sure they won't mind this action at
all.
The name change affects me because
I have been working closely with
publications since I transferred here
many years ago (I still haven't graduated).
I'm very tired of opening the red
newspaper box and seeing "Fountain-
head" on the front page of every
newspaper. This is the same thing to me
as oatmeal every morning, especially if
its cold. The name "Fountainhead" has
the zest and appeal as being shut up in
a room full of broken glass and the
door being locked.
Since the location of the old
"Fountainhead" has changed, the paper
should reflect the progressive atmos-
phere a new job involves. While I
mention it, where is this progressive
journalism the paper is supposed to be
showing? The paper still looks like the
same old thing. I think a better name
would be "THE OLD HAT because old
ideas have been tested and tried and
tested by time's conservative fireplace.
The ideas the Fountainhead has been
working with haven't encompassed the
total aspects of issues the way a real
paper would.
A specific example would be the
homosexual issue. The articles and
letters covered both pro and con, but
nobody mentioned the religious concerns
of this issue. I mean if you are going to
do something, don't settle for half ass.
Most schools that have journalism
departments have a separate building for
its department. The school, maybe in
conjunction with an industrial arts
department, print the paper in that same
building. Almost every student working
on the paper receives some kind of
journalism credit. The Fountainhead
writers don't receive much credit. The
Rebel, Buccaneer and Key staffs don't
receive any. Why is this, are they paid
too much money? The SGA Legislators
can take a student government course
and get credit for what they have learned,
why not publications people?
I think a good name for the
newspaper, because it would reflect the
progressive, total university, the ideal
model for every university community,

Art building is scene of incident
Assault attempt causes policy change
By DENNIS C. LEONARD
Assistant News Editor
Due to a recent assault on an ECU
coed in the Jenkins Fine Arts Center, the
Art Department has revised their after
hours operating policy in the building.
Art professors have been advising
their students to work in the building on
a "buddy system" basis and not to work
alone after hours. Wellington Gray, Dean
of the ECU School of Art, suggests this
procedure to thwart future assaults. Dean
Gray refused further comment on the
assault, except that he "informed
professors of the new policy in the
department while passing in the hall
The ECU Campus Security has
informed a rule requiring all art majors
who are going to work after hours in the
Jenkins Art Cerfter to apply for a special
after hours permit. "Campus policemen
periodically check the building and no
one is allowed to remain in the building
if they do not have a permit said
Francis Eddings, Assistant Director of
ECU Campus Security.
The attempted assault occurred last
Wednesday, January 21st in the jewelry
studio around 9:00 p.m. The assailant
supposedly approached the art student,
grabbed her arm, she knocked it away,
and he fled. Campus police were
immediately informed of the assault and
began the investigation.
Taylor requests Pub
Board to consider
paper changing name
The Publications Board has been
asked to consider changing the name of
the student newspaper,the Fountainhead
The request for the name change
came during the weekly Pub Board
meeting Tuesday from Fountainhead
editor Mike Taylor
Taylor told the Board that the
newspaper staff had voted the week
before to ask that the paper's name be
changed.
"We art not making any r commend-
ations as to what the new name should
be. The staff only voted to change the
name Taylor told the Pub Board.
If the Pub Boarc should vote to
change the name any final action would
have to be made by the SGA, in
accordance with Pub Board bylaws.
Previous bylaws had required a
student referendum to have a pub-
lication's name changed but in rewriting
bylaws this year, the Board dropped the
referendum requirement leaving agree-
ment for a name change up to the Board
and then the SGA.
In asking for the name change, Taylor
cited the fact that currently the name
related to nothing on campus.
"Most student newspapers have some
type link to the school. But, there is
nothing that the name Fountainhead
relates to on campus Taylor told the
Board.
Taylor suggested that if the Board were
to agree to a name change some type of
student contest could be sponsored to
find a name.
The Board took the request under
advisement and is expected to take some
action in two weeks at the next Pub
Board meeting.
The student newspaper was named
,uie East Carolinian until September,
1969, when the name was changed to
Fountainhead.

The assailant was a white male,
approximately five feet, nine inches tall,
weight 160 pounds. He had brown
shoulder length hair, a beard, and a
mustache, and was wearing a brown
coat.
According to an art professor who has
asked to remain anonymous, prior to the
recent assault in the art building, there
have been three reported assaults in
Greenville and all of the victims have
been art majors. Last Wednesday's
incident was not reported to the city
police, according to Greenville Police
Chief E.G. Cannon.
According to the anonymous art
professor, there is a sketch of one
assailant, who struck earlier this year, on
file at the Greenville police station.
"In the last 15 months we have not
had any assaults where the victim was
taken to the hospital for examination
said Eddings. "We encourage students to
be more cautious when walking on
campus at night, and to never walk
alone. Persons should be especially
careful when walking in secluded areas
on campus, for example between the dirt
parking lot and Slay Dorm
As a reminder to all art majors using
the art building after hours, you must
have a special permit and it is advised
that you double up when working in the
building late.
ECU Afro Center
will remain open
By RENEE MOORE
Staff Writer
The ECU Afro-American Cultural
Center will stay open indefinitely, despite
recent speculation that it might close. No
plans exist for closing it because of
insufficient cultural programs.
"It's strictly a rumor. Zoe Davidson
and I have talked to Mrs. Ledonia Wright.
She said nothing had crossed her desk
concerning the center being closed said
James G. Adams, president of the
Society of United Liberated Students
(SOULS).
Mrs. Wright is the faculty advisor to
SOULS.
"The only complaints we've received
so far concern students working at the
center at the times they designate. We
wish the students would cooperate along
these lines said Adams.
Adams feels the students have been
misled concerning the number of
activities that must be sponsored through
the center.
"The primary problem of the center is
locating funds to carry out cultural
programs successfully said Adams.
Members of SOULS drafted objectives
for the center. It was decided that the
cultural center was to serve, first, as a
resource center for publications and
educational awareness, second, as a
university community-based center for
academic aid, third, as an outlet for
campus awareness, and fourth, as a
center for the preservation of group
culture and historic development.
"The name of the center itself puts
pressure on us said Adams. "One of
the center's purposes is to bring
minorities together socially as well as
culturally. I think if the name were
changed to Afro-American Social and
Cultural Center, so much wouldn't be
expected from us said Adams.

Possibly by next fall
WECU radio considers going FM
By JIM ELLIOTT
News Editor
ECU could have an FM radio station by
next winter or sooner.
"If we moved on it now we could
possibly have an FM station by next
Winter Quarter or even Fall Quarter Erik
Sieurin, WECU station manager told
Fountainhead Wednesday.
WECU is the campus AM station
which broadcasts to the dorms by an
electrically carried signal.
Before going on the air ECU would
have to get an FM broadcast license for a
non-commercial educational system from
the Federal Communications Commis-
sion. To be considered for such a license
the campus radio station would have to
meet the FCC's financial, programming
and general character qualifications
according to Dr. Carlton Benz, director of
ECU broadcasting.
Lenoir Community College just
received a license for the campus FM
station WLCC for which they have been
working the past one to two years, Benz
said.
"The first step in getting a license
from the FCC is to have a frequency
study made said Sieurin. "This is done
to determine if there are any other
stations with which the signal of the one
we are proposing would conflict.
"We have a study that was made
about two years ago but it would
probably have to be updated. The cost
for a frequency study is approximately
$200
Sieurin said he did not believe there
are any other stations with which the
proposed 10 watt broadcast from ECU
would conflict.
"The next step would be to fill out
several copies of a ten-page application
for an FM license and send it to the FCC
for approval Sieurin said.
"If the application is approved the
FCC will send us a CP (construction
permit) and we could begin buying
equipment
Sieurin said the transmitter that has
been considered would be a 10 watt unit
costing about $10,000.
A ten watt station could be heard
throughout Greenville, according to a
spokesman in the ECU broadcasting
department.
The total cost for equipment,
installation, and a year of broadcasting
would be about $20,000, Sieurin said.
According to information sent to
WECU concerning student operated FM
stations, the yearly operating costs for
KASU at Appalachian State is about
$18,000 for its 340 watt FM station.
The cost for adding an FM station to
the present WECU AM unit would cost
about $25,000 yearly, Sieurin continued.
"We could discontinue the AM
station, but then we would have to hire a
full-time professional to train the disc
jockeys for the FM station he said.
"If we keep the AM station we could
use it for training the FM disc jockeys.
After acquiring enough air time and
meeting certain qualifications, the AM
disc jockeys would be given FM
broadcasting assignments for which they
would be paid
WECU this year asked the Student
Government Association to pay disc
jockeys $2 an hour for their air time. If
the AM station was used as a training
course, its disc jockeys would work for
experience only, Sieurin explained.
"FCC regulations require an edu-
cational FM radio station to broadcast at
least three hours of public affairs
broadcasting Sieurin said.
"From 7 a.m. until noon our
programming could be top 40. From
noon until 6 p.m. it could be popular
recordings with a progressive format. The
programming from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
could meet the public affairs require-
ment, possibly including selections done
by the ECU School of Music. The rest of
the programming would be devoted to a
strictly progressive format with elements
of jazz, rock and folk music
Sieurin said that unless ECU gets its
own FM station soon, a 100,000 watt
station operated out of Chapel Hill,
similar to the UHF television station the
UNC system operates, would use ECU as
a satellite and "would make it difficult"
for this unviersity to get an independent
FM station.
He said the main station is already
built and is ready to go on the air.
Students at ECU as well as
UNC-Chapel Hill students would have no
input into the programming of such a
network station, Sieurin said.

'Co-op' program offers
on the job training
By KENNETH CAMPBELL
Assistant News Editor
East Carolina University has joined
over 970 of the nation's institutions
offering their students an alternative to
classroom study - a job.
The "cooperative education" program
offers a student an opportunity to
alternate classroom work with periods of
on the job experience in his particular
area of interest.
Although the program is relatively
new to ECU, seven students have already
been placed in jobs. Four were placed
with the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration in Washington, D.C.
"Presently the co-op has over 100
applications said Douglas W. Kruger,
coordinator. "Any student who has
attended for one quarter is eligible to
participate in the program
To apply for a co-op job, a student
must register with the co-op office in
Rawl 311, on the ECU campus. After a
student registers, the co-op staff looks
for a job for him.
"Just because a student is interested
in field work doesn't mean he will be
placed in a job said Kruger. "We only
promise to do our best to place him
After the co-op office gets an
employer and a student together, it is up
to the employer to hire the student. Once
hired, the student is a regular employee
and is expected to remain with the
employer until he completes the period
of employment agreed upon.
"Most employers will discontinue a
student's employment if the student
drops out of school while working said
Kruger. "The employer, in many cases, is
looking for a student who is a
prospective employee, yet the student
must show an interest in his education
also.
A student who is placed in a job is
not required to carry a course load unless
he is hired by the federal government.
"If the student is working full time,
the co-op actually discourages him from
carrying courses because to do both, a
student must divide his energies said
Kruger. "A person must have maximum
input to get maximum output.
"All academic departments which
have been contacted by the co-op office
have expressed great interest in the
program according to Kruger. "Some of
the departments have indicated that
course credit could be offered for certain
jobs.
Upon completing his study-work
period, the student returns to the school
to continue his academic studies.
Depending on variables such as, when
courses are taught, whether or not the
work experience is beneficial to the
student, and whether or not the student's
work satisfies the employer, students can
work any number of quarters after having
completed one quarter in school.
Benefits provided by the co-op
program are threefold. There are benefits
to the students, the employers, and the
university.
"The primary purpose of the program
is not to provide financial aid to the
student said Kruger. "However,
students in the program are able to help
finance their education with the salaries
they earn
Another benefit is the self-awareness
that a student discovers by living and
participating in an adult society,
according to Kruger.
"The work experience helps many
students to decide if they have chosen
the right career said Kruger. "On the

'Co-op'places four with NASA program
By KENNETH CAMPBELL
Assistant News Editor
East Carolina University's relatively
new Cooperative Education program
began its job placement function last
year in praiseworthy fashion by placing
four students with the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration
(NASA) in Washington, D.C.
"The Cooperative Education program
allows students to alternate quarters of
work with quarters of classroom study
according to Betsy Harper, director.
Two of the students who were placed
in NASA were Lynn Hanold and Maria
Durham. Both will be working with NASA
again later this year.
Maria, as a junior German major, was
given a job in NASA while the ECU
"co-op" was still in its planning stage.
The co-op is now in its implementing
stage, according to Douglas W. Kruger,
coordinator. This stage involves getting
the employers, students, and faculty
acquainted with the co-op. It also
includes finding jobs.
"Funded through the Federal Office of
Education, the purpose of the program is
to help students get working experience
in their particular field of interest while
still students in college said Harper.
"By doing this, students are able to make
more intelligent career choices
"A co-op job offers an opportunity to
find out what you like before you
dedicate your life to what may turn out to
be the wrong field said Maria Durham.
"Before the co-op job, I just did not
know what kind of jobs were available in
the field I'm interested in. But, the co-op
job has changed that. Now, I have
reevaluated just what I need and what
will be expected of me. I have a new
perspective of the job market
Lynn Hanold, a senior foreign
language major, has also gained insight
into the job market through her co-op
job.
"The co-op job has given me a
broader outlook on the job market said
Lynn. After the job with NASA, I feel that
I sort of have a foot in the door with the
federal government.
"Too often, in our universities, we
graduate with just degrees. With the
co-op program, we have an opportunity
to graduate with a degree and experience
in using that degree
Maria, unlike Lynn, was able to use
her major in her job. Maria's job included
translating messages from German.
other hand, it helps those who have
chosen the right career to become
acquainted with updated machines and
equipment that a university may not
have
"Moreover, the program enables the
student to find greater meaning in his
studies, as he can relate studies to work
experience.
"Finally, the preparation provided by
the cooperative program helps the
student to get a more responsible
placement upon graduation. These
benefits make the study-work time in
college a sound economic investment
One possible disadvantage to the
participants in the program is that
graduafon may be extender by one or
two quarters. However, suminer school
can alleviate this disadvantage.
"Benefits to the employer include "a
year round flow of talent "Communi-
cation between the university and the
community and the "employee retention
rate is improved said Kruger.
"The university develops a rapport
with the external public as a benefit of
the co-op program said Kruger.
"Activities of the university are made
aware of by the employer where the
student is placed.
Lynn, who worked in a junior
executive type program, helped to make
travel arrangements for Americans going
to the Soviet Union. In getting visas
ready, she had to visit the Soviet
Embassy many times.
"Although I did not get to use my
major the co-op job was very rewarding
said Lynn. "Work experience teaches
more than class work. It helped me to
gain self-confidence, and a sense of
responsibility
Another reason the experience at
NASA was so rewarding is everyone was
so helpful. Also I was treated as an equal
although I was just learning the ropes.
"I had three supervisors, but they
were only there to help me if I needed it.
They were never looking over my
shoulders
The co-op job had a large impact on
Maria.
"Before I worked with NASA, I was a
German major said Maria. "Now, I'm
majoring in Political Science also. While
working at NASA, I realized that my
background for this type of job was
inadequate. Since coming back to
school, I have reevaluated my education.
Both Lynn and Maria prefer a co-op
job over a college work-study job.
"A co-op job is much more valuable
than a college work-study job said
Maria. "The average student is not going
to spend his life doing the kind of job he
does in the work study program
"One of the most important benefits
of the co-op job is that it provides work
in a real situation.
"In work study, you're still in the
classroom said Lynn. "The work you're
doing is not necessarily related to your
field of study
Lynn, who is an out-of-state student
said, "This is the first time I've paid my
tuition and other school expenses all by
myself
Both Lynn and Maria appreciate the
jobs the co-op found for them.
"I really appreciate the co-op, and I
wish other students would use it said
Lynn.
"Dr. Harper has done a wonderful job
with the co-op said Maria. "I appreciate
her effort to make it available for the
students. It is an invaluable learning
experience

Who is Henry Kissinger?
By KIM JOHNSON
Staff Writer
NOW HEAR THIS is about to make a
switchfrom questions concerning cam-
pus issues to a more extensive field of
interest: national issues. And the
question put to students this week was,
"What does the name 'Henry Kissinger
mean to you?"
"Power said student Walt Hodges.
"Henry Kissinger represents so much
world-wide power that it's almost
frightening
"Powerful, yes said Pat Tighe. "And
influencial. He should be watched more
closely than he is already. I don't see
why the C.I.A. doesn't have much more
control over him, or why there hasn't
been any strong opposition against him
at all
"He just seems to always zip right
through authority. He simply walks into a
negotiation and says, O.K you listen to
this side and you listen to that side, then
boom! And everybody's friends. It's just
too easy and too good to be true or
legal
Student Katharine Murphy said that
the name Henry Kissinger meant
intelligence to her but, "still a lack of
integrity; I equate intelligence with
increasing insight, understanding, etc.
But I'm disappointed in Kissinger. I had
such high hopes in him because he is so
intelligent. I felt like he would govern his
policies with intelligence, not paranoia or
emotions. But in his case, intelligence
obviously is no protection against
corruption
There were at least a couple of
students who had more favorable
reactions to "that name One sur
student was Cindy Lyle who said, "I
think he's good. He's done more for the
foreign policy than anybody else in a
long time.
Another student with a positive
opinion concerning Kissinger was SGA
president Jimmy Honeycutt. "First of all,
I think he has a very difficult job and I
sympathize with him because he's havina
to work with world problems: foreign
policy, etc. And he's working for the
President of the United States that
appointed him. "But he is also faced with
his policies being evaluated by a
Congress that's of an opposing party
"i don't think he has too much power
because if he didn't have some power he
couldn't do an effective job. He receives
a lot of criticism, but I think he's done a
pretty good job
Then there was George Merrell who
said, "The name, Henry Kissinger, makes
me think of a gentleman who flys to
various places around the world smiling
at people he utterly detests
Charlotte Cheatham also saw visions
of flight! Her comment was, "I think of a
plane with him sitting in it, waiting. Then
I think about the negotiations, such as in
the Middle-East, and I see this big
father-image; the mediator.
"I wonder why we're (the U.S.) the
ones that are supposed to settle all these
differences. Why do we have to interfere
so much? I think, yes, Kissinger has
way too much power; he has more
power, in my opinion, than the President.
Face it! It doesn't matter what title he
has
Quite a few students merely made the
remark that Secretary Kissinger has a
"neat" accent. Oh well
In ECU appearance
Neill explains the real Lois Lane
"Golly am I glad to see you
Superman said Lois Lane in what have
become some of the most familiar words
in television and comic book history.
Thursday night's crowd of fans in
Mendenhall Student Theater proved
people are still glad to see Superman, as
they welcomed Lois Lane herself-Noel
Neill.
For nearly four generations the
spunky 5 feet 1 112 inches Neill has been
out-scooping Clark Kent before millions
of Superman fans around the world.
Since the first television series began in
1951 the films have been shown
throughout Europe, in South America and
the Far East.
"We're quite popular in South America
and especially in Japan said Neill. "The
series are still running there
Before taking up the role of Lois Lane
in the T.V. series, Neill played the part
opposite Kirk Allen, as Superman, in the
original series, prcduced for Saturday
theater matinees.
When the TV series began "another
Lois" played in the first 26 chapters.
Then I got the part and finished the
other 78 said Neill.
Although she admitted she "probably
hasn't seen half the series she said her
favorite episode was when she married
Superman.
"Actually it was only a dream she
said, "because if Superman got married,
where could we go from there?"
Chuckling over some of the funnier
incidents in filming the shows, Neill
explained that originally Superman
(George Reaves) had flown through the
air with the aid of wires until, "they
dropped him once, from about 11 feet.
After that they made a mold of his body
(stomach down) and dressed him over the
mold so you couldn't see it
Another mishap occured when
"George was supposed to jump through a
wall, you know and like he always did he
kind of hopped on one foot with his arm
out and went through the wall. Only this
time, he stuck, right in the middle of the
wall. After a few minutes the director
said, George are you O.K.?' Without ever
changing his expression, George backed
up, pulled his arm out of the wall, shook
himself off and after a few nice Southern
bows, left. That was the last we saw of
him that day Neill said.
Inevitably some people wonder if Lois
and Superman ever got together.
"No said Neill. "George was an
awfully sweet guy, just not my type.
Besides, George's girlfriend was bigger
and richer than me and, well, I was
married at the time
When asked if she had gotten caught
up in the fight for 'truth, justice, and the
American way Neill said, "we didn't
have time. We were too busy filming
The work day was 8 a.m. to 8 p.m
completing two shows a week, according
to Neill.
"We worked in batches One year
doing 13 chapters, a year or so later we'd
all be called back and do another 26,
maybe 13 in another year. It wasn't
exactly what you'd call steady
employment she said.
The last of the series was filmed in
1957. "We had just been called back
together by the producer in '59 to film
again Neill said. "But, of course, that
was the year George committed suicide
(Neill later said that although his death
had been reported as a suicide, "and
hushed up" Reaves' mother spent the two
years before her death trying to prove
murder. Neill said the gun had been
found with no fingerprints and three
other bullet holes were found in the
room.)
Since then, Neill has lived in Santa
Monica, California, "been married a
couple of times and had put aside the
Superman days until "some college kids
in New York round me and asked me to
speak she said.
"That was two years ago and I love
making appearances, I just love the
feeling of being loved she said.
After her warm reception here there is
no doubt the vivacious, red-haired,
green-eyed daughter of a Minnesota
newspaper editor, is still loved.
To the people who grew up cheering
for Superman, the pert 52-year-old Neill,
still trim, still witty, still wearing her
familiar little pillbox hat, is just as
people remember her.
And the popularity of Superman lives
on. According to Neill, Mario Puzo
(author of "The Godfather") has been
asked to write a script for a full-feature
film on the adventures of Superman.
Repeating a quote from Puzo about
why he'd been asked to do the script,
"They got me because I know how to get
Lois and Clark in bed Neill quipped,
"They could have asked me, and for
free

Greenville homes
New designs aim for uniqueness
By DIANE TAYLOR
Staff Writer
For those who like life a little
different and can afford $30,000 to
$40,000, modern home architecture offers
a break with tradition.
Whether the style is low with jutting
angles, an A-frame or even a six sided
frame on a pedestal, homes once used as
mountain and beach vacation retreats
have moved into year-round city living.
"I think one main reason they are
such a success is they're different. They
are unique in their own way said J.
Russell Fleming, of Fleming and
Associates.
Fleming, who is one of the dozen
owners of contemporary homes in
Greenville, and a partner with a firm in
town which builds the new homes, said
people are "tired of the usual
three-bedroom ranch style house found
in Greenville
Mrs. Henry Farrell, 2010 Fern Dr. said
she and her husband wanted something
different when they built their two-story
A-frame house nine years ago
"This particular house is all under one
roof and has no comers to worry about
she said. "We've found no disadvantages
in this style
There are several economizing
features to the A-frame, according to
Farrell. The house is built on a concrete
slab with the carpet directly on top, she
said. The back of the house is mostly
glass, "which is good for direct sunlight
and the view
The house, built by a Raleigh firm,
has a total of eight rooms, four of which
are bedrooms.
"We're perfectly happy with it said
Farrell.
The styles of the homes are as varied
as their names are similar. The five
homes built by Fleming and Associates
are the Tahoe, the Hatteras, and the
Wayfarer, all on Commerce St; the
Rivera, 107 S. Rotary Ave. and the
Highlander at 101 Dalebrook Circle.
"They are extremely popular in this
area said Fleming, "but our only
problem is finding the right lot Because
the homes are designed for hideaway
retreats, they require uncleared wooded
lots, Fleming said. A lot with a "rolling"
surface is best.
Ther materials used in building the
homes are rustic woods such as
unpainted Rough Saun Cedar, Redwood
siding and Mahogany Luan siding.
Usually a natural Shaker shingle roof is
added. The homes are usually
surrounded by a deck of salt treated
lumber to repel water.
Fleming said most contemporary
homes probably cost about ten percent
more than a traditional house of the
same size and take a little longer to build
due to limited access on the uncleared
lot, the newness of such designs, so
many angles and high ceilings.
But for young couples and singles
with an eye for individuality, the new
homes have great appeal. Fleming said
most Duyers of the homes are couples
under 35 years of age who are interested
in modem interior decorating.
Not only do the houses lend
themselves to great imagination in
interior decorating, but in interior design
as well.
Tommy Howard, owner of a hidden
five-year old home at 2804 S. Evans,
designed the interior of his office house
from a basic Kingsburry model.
"If you start out with a basic design
you can do anything with the inside he
said.
His home has the grounds and look
of a mountain cabin yet the plush
modern compactness of an expensive
city apartment. All rooms but a guest
bedroom are visible from the living room,
even his office upstairs. The sloping
cathedral ceiling, open to the sky by a
window creates a great feeling of
roominess to the entire house.
Two successful Greenville bachelors
who have been living in identically built
"round houses" on the Tar River since
April 1974, say nothing could be better.
"I didn't like all the constraints of
apartment living, yet I felt better in an
apartment than a three bedroom house
said Bill Ipock, 27.
His home at 1707 River Dr. is a
six-sided glass-walled frame atop a
concrete pedestal. The two bedrooms,
one and a half bathrooms, rooms and a
foyer in the pedestal, a loft and
combined kitchen-dining-living room area
comprise 14,000 square feet. It is circled
on the two sides overlooking the river by
a 60 X 10 ft. outer deck. A narrow
circular staircase connects the three
floors from inside.
Ipock said these homes are bought in
a complete package and the wood is
precut at the factory. A local contractor
then, "puts it together like a jigsaw
puzzle with nuts and bolts It takes
about 30 days to build one, he said.
"This is an advantage because it cuts
the construction interest (interest on
money borrowed from a bank to pay the
workers while the house is being built).
"It's a beautiful setting up here an
year round said Ipock. "For a single
person or young couple there couldn't be
anything better
If the new home owners are raving
about all the advantages to the
contemporary styles, some prospective
buyers may find the disadvantages
discouraging.
Fleming said the higher heating bills
for the new homes could be a
disadvantage. Although, he said his

Riviera style has a 25 ft. ceiling, no
storm windows, and his heating bill is
about the same as any traditional f -use
of similar size. All the homes built by
Fleming and Associates are equipped
with heating pump systems. "It saves
about 50 percent on a heating bill he
said. The heating pump is a fairly new
idea which has been on the market only
eight years, and is only now coming into
popularity said Fleming.
Another problem is that due to their
newness, banks have a difficult time in
appraising the homes.
"There just isn't anything to compare
them with said Fleming.
"But there are no real advantages or
disadvantages Fleming said. "It just
depends on the person's taste
Will more tastes turn to the flavor of
contemporary living in the future?
"I would like to think so said
Fleming. "I believe we could sell ail we
build
Fleming said he thought many more
designs will come into popularity. He
said he had seen commercial and
apartment buildings of contemporary
style in larger cities. "But the rental cost
would be too great to make such a
venture profitable in Greenville he said.
Nonetheless, Fleming said his
company would like to build more this
year, if the proper lots can be found.

Chaka Khan and Rufus strike record gold
By MICHAEL IACHETTA
Pop Scene Service
"The best advice I could give any
young person interested in show
business is stay in school - until you're
old enough to count your money and
then get out and start working
That bit of unconventional advice
comes from an unconventional gal - soul
mama Chaka Khan, lead singer for the
hot soul rock group "Rufus
Chaka dropped out of three Chicago
high schools before she was 16 because
she wanted to sing more than she
wanted to study. "I'm doing what I love
and making money at it
What Chaka is doing is writing lyrics
and belting out songs with a style that
evokes memories of Janis Joplin. She
has also been compared to Stevie
Wonder.
And no wonder. For Stevie has been
very instrumental to the success of
Rufus, featuring Chaka Khan, with their
Grammy-winning "Tell Me Something
Good a million seller, and their aptly
named LPs "Ragus to Rufus" and
"Rufusized
Their latest LP, "Rufus Featuring
Chaka Khan is zooming up the pop
charts with uptempo tunes like "Have a
Good Time "Fool's Paradise" and "Jive
Talkin
They have toured with Stevie Wonder,
the Rolling Stones and Elton John, and
they defy a label.
"We're not the usual 'soul band'
people think we are says keyboardist-
founder Kevin Murphy. "We fall
somewhere between outrageous and
supercommerciality. We don't want to
sell out to commercialty but we do want
to sell records
And sell they do. Along with Chaka
and Murphy, the group consists of
drummer Andre Fischer, guitarist Tony
Maiden and bass player Bobby Watson
They represent a musical cross-section of
Chicago and Los Angeles and all did
their share of dues - paying before finding
each other.
Chaka, for example, comes from a
Chicago family split by divorce. Her
father is a freelance photographer. Her
mother is a supervisor at an experimental
high school at the University of Chicago
- the last school from which Chaka
dropped out.
"I'm a lyricist and keenly appreciate
beauty she says. "Beyond that, school
taught me how to count my money.
"I'm not a women's libber or anything
like that said Chaka, a name she says
means 'fire warrior I wanted to go
through life with an exotic name, not a
square name (which she'd rather not
divulge). But other than the name, I'm
doing my trip being like I am. No
facades. I'm no different off-stage than I
am on
Chaka is very seductive on stage. She
is also a very attractive lady off stage.
She was into her second bottle of
pre-show wine as she talked in her
Manhattan hotel room, attired in a
flesh-colored bra, clinging, red harem
pants and a red harem hat with jingling
coins.
She turned down a Rufus tape ("I
always practice to our taped music) and
reduced the color TV set to flickering
silhouettes as she unwound before the
evening's appearance.
She was talking about how Rufus was
created three years ago. She had been
working the Chicago disc scene with a
group called the Bab Babysitters when
she ran into Murphy of Chicago's
American ("Bend Me, Shape Me") Breed.
The nucleus of Rufus was bom when
they merged with Andre Fischer and split
for the West Coast "where all the right
business elements were
"Besides, Chicago is schizophrenic,
like the weather there said Chaka.
Maiden and Watson came to the
group as a duo after having worked
together in Europe.
They all had the credentials.
Fischer's drums, for example,
provided the soulful backbeat for Curtis
Mayfield, O.C. Smith, and Jerry Butler.
Murphy played his keyboards with the
The Energy Balloon
"Havinghelped lull the American people into a dangerous overconfidence
writes former Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall, "I felt a moral duty to admit my
own errors and to expose the wildly optimistic assumptions that had misled the
country Thus, The Energy Balloon, a strongly opinionated and argumentative book
that deals with the most important single factor facing the United States and the
world: energy. Udall and co-authors, Charles Conconi and David Osterhout, aim to
burst the "energy balloonthe enormous bubble of arrogance and self-deception that
is swelling our energy crisis and to propose a dynamic new program for a lean
America.
The central Theme of The Energy Baloon applies the all pervasive role of energy
to everyone's life-whether one is discussing world peace or hunger. "What
we are calling the energy crisis may very well be the most complex issue the nation
has had to face in this century writes the authors, "a complexity reflected in the
cross-currents and confusing counsels at the highest levels of government and
industry Their book outlines the arrogance and stupidity of American
shortsightedness, which is evident in our grossly energy-inefficient automobiles and
in housing that has contributed to the crisis we face today. According to The Energy
Balloon . the small fraction of humanity living in the U.S. owns half the world's
automobiles, uses over 50 per cent of its gasoline, and aspires to double that total
energy used every fourteen or fifteen years.
The Energy Balloon outlines a "go lean" program for this nation's immediate
future for individuals, government, and industry. Udall and his co-authors see the end
of the Petroleum Age-the age of cheap energy-as a call to create a new Americato
redesign industry, end suburban sprawl, reclaim central cities, and reshape lives
around a life-centered energy ethic. 'The Energy Balloon is what has long been
needed, a short, clear, hardhitting explanation of where we went wrong and what to
do about it Alvin Toffler.
As Secretary of the Interior under Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B.
Johnson, Steward Udall played a key role in energy policy-making during the 1960's.
Since then he has been a visiting professor at Yale University, had co-authored a
nationally syndicated column on the environment, and has practiced law in
Washington, DC. An experienced journalist and writer, Charles Conconi was
Washington editor of Environmental Quality Magazine. He now lectures at
Georgetown University. David Osterhout is a writer and legislative analyst specializing
in environmental issues.
Crystals, Del Shannon and Brian Hyland.
And everybody knew what to do in a
recording session.
They were grooving so well during a
session at California's Record Plant that
Stevie Wonder poked his head in to hear
Chaka's voice. Wonder started jamming
with Rufus. By the time he left he had
provided the group with several tunes,
among them "Tell Me Something Good
which went well with Chaka's personally
penned "You've Got the Love
"Tell Me" is the crowd pleaser that
hooks the audience early in their live
sets. "It's one of those songs that's
played so much, I'm sure everyone's sick
of it already said Murphy. "Onstage we
try it faster, slower, whatever - but it's
getting a bit threadbare. But in spite of
the gimmicks and the hook that worked
once, the public doesn't have to worry
about us being the kind of band who'll
just put out another version of the same
song
In fact, Chaka was working on a new
song before going on that evening.
"Writing and singing, that's what I'm all
about said Chaka. "That and my
one-year-old daughter, Melanie. And
she's the frosting on my cake
New Blues book
for enthusiasts
BLUES: A Documentary Study of the American Blues Musician was put together
after two years of extensive travel and interviews by authors Robert Neff and Anthony
Connor. Armed with camera and tape recorder, they tracked down and talked with the
musicians in their homes, and on the road. The resulting book is an on-the-spot,
spontaneous, and moving account of lives hopes, defeats, and victories captured in
the words, rhythms, and gestures of the performers themselves.
The Blues tradition, which is mainly oral, grows more perishable each year. Little
Walter, Otis Spann, Elmore James, Magic Sam, Earl Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson,
Arthur Crudup, Junior Parker and scores more have died in recent years. Others are in
shaky health. We've worked on BLUES with a strong sense of lost time and vanishing
opportunities. However, for audiences interested in America's fundamental music
form, it is still possible to see and hear musicians like James Cotton, Muddy Waters,
John Lee Hooker, B.B. King and others who are, without question, major figures in
this country's cultural heritage.
BLUES is a migling of the voices of scores of blues musicians, who talk about
their music, their past, and their futuresThe musicians we talked with are not
necessarily legends, but each has something to say, and their collective voice tells
not only about the Blues but about a particular time in the Black American
experience.

Gross elected N. C. Women's leader
Math professor named Caucus President
By FRANCEINE PERRY
ECU News Bureau
Tennala Abner Gross, assistant
professor of mathematics at ECU, was
elected president of the North Carolina
Women's Political Caucus at the recent
fifth annual NCWPC convention on the
cECU campus
A member of the state caucus since
its organization in 1972, Ms. Gross has
also been a NCWPC Policy Council
member for four years and was second
vice president this past year
Politics and the women's movement
have been among her chief interests, and
the chance to combine both came with
her active role in N.C. ERA United last
year, when she served as eastern N.C.
coordinator for the campaign to ratify the
Equal Rights Amendment.
She is also a charter member of the
Eastern Carolina Chapter of the National
Organization for Women (NOW) and the
Greenville-Pitt County League of Women
Voters, and a member of the local
American Civil Liberties Union chapter,
the Greenville Peace Committee and a
number of professional and honorary
societies.
One of her primary goals as new
NCWPC president is to involve more
low-income women and "blue-collar"
women in caucus activities, and her
varied work experience should prove
helpful in achieving this goal.
"I have been working since I was
seven years old she says, recalling her
first iob, selling a weekly newspaper. As
a teenager in Lenoir. she delivered the
Charlotte Observer and sold cosmetics
door-to-door
The Great Depression coincided with
my high school graduation she said.
"There was no money for college, and
there seemed to be no jobs
Her first full-time employment, in the
spinning department of a branch of the
Burlington Mills, was secured after many
mornings of walking to the mill before 7
a.m going in with the regular workers,
and persistently coaxing the foreman for
work.
"I kept that up for so long they finally
gave me a job said Ms. Gross.
She saved enough money from the
Burlington job to attend Campbell Junior
College. Her last two years of study at
Elon College were financed by further
work at the Burlington plant.
During her junior year, she worked the
3-11 shift, and during her senior year, the
TENNALA ABNER GROSS-
President of Women's Caucus
11 p.m7 a.m. shift, and somehow
managed to maintain Honor Roll grades
and be active in campus organizations.
After graduation from college with
majors in English and history, she began
study toward a degree in religious
education, but instead married Duke
graduate student Dawyer D. (Jack) Gross,
now an associate professor of philosophy
at ECU.
The Grosses were separated by World
War II, when her husband entered the
Army and she taught junior high social
studies. The war over, Jack Gross
resumed his study at Duke, and Tennala
became an assistant to Gertrude Merritt,
chief of processing at the Duke
University Library, whom she remembers
as "one of the best bosses I ever had
When Jack finished his work at Duke
and entered the ministry, Tennala held
teaching jobs wherever he served, at
schools in Alamance, Madison and
Haywood Counties. In 1950, their son
John Dawyer, now a resident of Raleigh,
was born.
The Grosses came to Greenville in
1960, when Dr. Gross joined the East
Carolina faculty as Director of Religious
Activities. Tennala taught at Greenville's
Rose High School for three years, and
enrolled in East Carolina's graduate
program in mathematics. Upon receiving
her MA, she was offered an
instructorship, and in 1968, was
promoted to assistant professor.
In addition to her teaching and a
two-year term as director of the ECU
Computer Center, Ms. Gross has
conducted workshops for business
personnel, math teachers and advanced
high school students. Some of her
computer research reports have been
published in mathematics journals.
She has done further study at Rutgers
University, the University of Chicago,
N.C. State University and UNC-Chapel
Hill.
Ms. Gross is the first eastern North
Carolina president of the N.C. Women's
Political Caucus. Another Greenville
resident, attorney Nelson Crisp, is the
organization's new second vice president.
Other 1976 officers are:
Mary Hopper of Charlotte, president
elect; Marylyn Gordon of Asheville, first
vice president; Josephine Holman of
Hillsborough, third vice president;
Barbara Kamara of Greensboro, secre-
tary; and Edith Conrad of Greensboro,
treasurer.

Lawyer to discuss contract system
A local lawyer will visit the ECU
campus during the first week of February
to discuss the legality of dormatory
contracts and the rights of privacy a
dorm dweller has.
The firm of Blount, Crisp & Grant
Myre wiil supply information and answer
questions during an SGA Legal Rights
Session, according to Tim Sullivan, SGA
Executive Assistant. "The fact that the
University forces you to live in a dorm
has been bugging a lot of students, so I
hope this session will help answer some
basic questions Sullivan stated.
"Just as important is the topic of
right-to-privacy he continued. "Can
campus, or city police come into your
room without a warrant? Can thev legally
search a room without you being there?
The session ought to let students know
where they stand legally
The Inter-Fraternity Council and the
SGA have both set up committees
recently to look into the dorm contracts
and the effect they have on the student
body.
The date for the Legal Rights Session
has been tentatively set for Feb. 4 or 10,
according to Sullivan.

' Fountainhead' seeking
minority affairs editor
The Fountainhead editor, Mike Taylor,
is now selecting a person to fill the
position of minority editor.
In a Pub Board meeting lasting three
hours, debate over a minority publication
or a minority editor concluded with Mike
Taylor adding this position to his staff.
"I am happy with the position, but it
does imply that the regular staff isn't
covering minority news Mike Taylor
said.
"Originally Black or minority students
wanted a separate paper Dalton
Nicholas, acting Ebony Herald represent-
ative said.
"Having a separate minority section
would be like saying minority persons
aren't ECU students Diane Taylor, Pub
Board Chairperson said.
"If this is going to be the policy for
future editors, the position might be
interpreted as the only position
minorities or Blacks may fill on the
paper Pat Flynn, Pub Board secretary,
said.
The position of minority editor will be
a salaried position.
The Legislature is considering a bill
that will divert all Ebony Herald funds
back into the treasury. Mike Taylor said
that the minority editor position will
require additional SGA funds added to
his present budget.
The Pub Board unanimously passed a
motion to accept the Mt. Olive Tribune as
publishers of the Fountainhead until the
editor's term expires.
The cost of printing the Fountainhead
each issue is as follows:
16 Daaes $299.00
20 pages - $3500
24 pages $422.00
28 pages - $499.&S
These prices ao not include a $40 per
issue transportation cost. Half-tones
prices are $1.80 each.
The Board is looking into the future
.possibility of negotiating yearly contracts
for Fountainhead printing.
The majority of the meeting was
devoted to a discussion of the by-law
revisions. As required by Title IX, any
reference to sex or ra- would have to be
deleted from the by-laws.
By-law changes were approved and
amended at this meeting. They will now
go to the Leaislature for final approval.
Important changes were, the addition
of responsibility of the photo lab and
appointment of photographers to the Pub
Board as authorized by a Legislature bill,
deletion of an out-dated $120,000
guaranteed budget figure, and the option
of the publication to choose an advisor.
NEW ECU HEATING PLANT-The new ECU heating plant is located on 14th St. and is
scheduled for opening soon. The fuel oil system will take the place of the coal
burning system on campus.
N. C. students surveyed
By RAY TYLER
Staff Writer
Almost half of the North Carolina
high school students surveyed in a recent
poll said their grades would improve if
they could understand the teacher's
vocabulary.
The survey was conducted by the
secondary education study committee of
the North Carolina Student Legislature
(NCSL) in cooperation with the State
Department of Public Instruction.
The results of the survey were
released Sunday at the monthly NCSL
business meeting by Jack Murphy of
Belmont Abbey College. Murphy is
chairman of the education study
committee.
The survey was conducted in eight
schools across the state, one in each
educational district, and a total of 374
students were polled.
Forty-seven percent of the students
surveyed said they did not understand
the words their teachers used.
According to Dr. James W. Batten,
chairmen of ECU'S secondary education
department, this finding may be a further
indication of student reading problems
cited in other recent North Carolina
surveys.
"I believe that statewide we have
reading problems. Chances are that if
students are not understanding the words
their teachers use they have reading
problems said Batten.
All teachers use basic textbooks,
according to Batten, and their vocabulary
is probably related to the text.
"I can't imagine teachers would use
words not related to the text Batten
said.
Another finding of the survey
indicated 30 percent of the students
surveyed did not believe a newspaper had
the right to criticize an elected official.
ECU journalism professor Larry
O'Keefe said this statistic startled him.
"The fact that 30 percent of the
students believed a newspaper can't
criticize a public official indicates they
have no understanding of the press role
and the First Amendment said O'Keefe.
"That nearly a third of the students hold
this opinion is to me downright scary
NCSL is a mock general assembly
that convenes annually in Raleigh ard
passes their own legislation. The
education study committee is one of
several the organization uses to study
problems and issues in North Carolina.

about one-third of a movie titled "Our
Expanding Estuaries
Dr. O'Connor received a $3,000 grant
from the ECU Division of Continuing
Education and the ECU Institute for
Coastal and Marine Resources to make
the film.
"The movie concerns erosion of
estuaries said O'Connor.
"The movie will document that; first,
erosion is taking place; second, the rates
of erosion; and, third, what is being
done to combat erosion.
"It will stress man's activities in
estuaries and show his wisdom and his
folly.
"I intend to show that erosion has
been going on for a long time, that it is
not in a new phenomenon.
"Ninety percent of our shoreline is
eroding. The rates vary from one foot to
thirty feet a year.
"The movie is the result of work that
Dr. (Stanley R.) Riggs and I have been
doing during the past several years.
Presently Dr. (Vincent J.) Bellis, Dr.
Riggs, and myself are studying erosion

Economics professor
lectures on world
hunger problem
By RAY TYLER
Staff Writer
The population growth rate of under-
developed countries is higher than
increases in the rate of local food
production, according to Dr. Joseph J.
Spengler of Duke University.
Dr. Spengler is a professor of
economics at Duke and he has done
extensive research in the field of
demography. Demography is the statisti-
cal study of population as it relates to
national death rates and health.
Dr. Spengler made his observations in
a speech at the World Hunger
Symposium on the campus of ECU, Jan.
15. The symposium, sponsored by ECU
and the Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society,
was held here Jan. 14 and 15.
"Every under-developed country could
be made able to produce its own food
said Spengler, "but their food production
is not at the same rate of growth as their
population rate
Spengler said incentives to have large
families in under-developed countries are
greater than those to limit population.
"Children become a source of security
because they do a lot of work said
Spengler. "Also, when you are old,
somebody will take care of you and one
of your kids may make good and pull you
up the social ladder
Poor distribution of food resources is
one reason hunger is so prevalent in the
world, according to Spengler.
"Nobody does anything unless he
figures it is going to pay said Spengler.
"And the poorer countries cannot afford
to purchase the food they need
New technology may not solve the
food shortage, according to Spengler.
"If the new grain hybrids fall in
resistance to new pests then a hunger
famine will result that would make the
Irish famine look small in comparison
said Spengler.
The Hunger Symposium committee
was chaired by Dr. Oscar K. Moore of the
ECU economics department. Other ECU
faculty included Dr. William Byrd,
physics; Dr. Frank Close, business; Dr.
John Howell, provost, and Dr. lone Ryan,
of the counseling center.

Biologist
asserts
swamps'
value
By RENEE MOORE
Staff Writer
Dr. Mark Brinson of the ECU biology
department claims that eastern North
Carolina's swamps are a valuable
ecological and economical benefit for the
state.
Brjnson is working on a project called
the "Nutrient Cycle in North Carolina
"The main question we are trying to
answer is this - 'If we did away with all
the swamps, would there be any
effect'?" said Brinson.
According to Brinson this project
should reveal the ecological benefits of
the swamps.
"There is a limited plant growth in
most areas of the swamps if three
elements, nitrogen, phosphorus and
sulfur, appear in too much abundanace.
"Another problem that can arise from
this abundance is algae blooms (the
rapid growth of algae), which can lead to
fish kills said Brinson.
According to Brinson, when the
leaves fall in autumn, they accumulate
nitrogen while decomposing in the
swamps.
"If the swamps were drained the
nitrogen would be flushed down stream
and end up in the Pamlico River said
Brinson. "This is where people water ski
and fish.
"During winter in many areas, there
are large growths of algae in the
swamps. This algae is taking up
nutrients and conserving them instead of
allowing the nutrients to be flushed down
stream said Brinson.
Lacy R. Blanton Jr a graduate
student of the ECU biology department,
explained one aspect of the economic
benefit of the swamps.
"Dr. Brinson wants to study the
possibility of sewage waste treatment
planu which as fertilizers, stimulate
the gro vth of the Tupelo Gum plants, a
dominant species in the swamps said
Blanton, "and would produce a higher
yield of timber which man can use.
Instead of destroying the swamps, we
can use them in this respect said
Blanton.

SpOllS Big match ahead for wrestlers
Pirates lose
again: 83-67
JERSEY CITY, N.J. - It is called
playground basketball and it's a no-holds
barred type of basketball. East Carolina
found out how the game was played in
Jersey City Tuesday night as the St.
Peters Peacocks climbed all over the
Pirates on the way to an 83-37 win.
In winning its 500th game in the
school's history, St. Peter's got some
help from the officials in dropping the
ECU season record to 7-11. East Carolina
has now lost five of its last six games.
What the officials did not let St.
Peter's get away with, the Pirates did.
What hurt the ECU team most was a
nightmarish first half in which St. Peter's
built up a 45-26 halftime lead.
In the second half the Pirates' play
improved, but there were too many
turnovers and too many fouls, or the lack
of a foul, to allow the Pirates to come
back.
ECU cut the lead to within 11 and 12
points on two occasions, but the
officials' calls went against the ECU team
over the final ten minutes and allowed
the Peacocks to pull away to the winning
margin of 16.
Playing terribly, East Carolina was
overrun by St. Peter's in the first half.
Outscoring ECU by 15-2 early in the
half, the Peacocks built of a 21-6 lead
with 11:21 remaining.
St. Peter's continued the assault on
the cold-shooting Pirates, who shot only
31 per cent from the floor and 61 per cent
from the foul line in the first half, and
stretched the lead to 36-18 with just
under five minutes remaining in the
half.
A short spurt brought ECU back to
38-24, but St. Peter's reeled off seven
straight points to cushion its first half
advantage of 19.
The Peacocks shot 53 pe. cent in the
first half, and with ECU shooting so
poorly and turning the ball over every
other time down the court it was
surprising ECU attempted to come back
in the final half.
In the second half, Larry Hunt and Al
Edwards began to produce for the p'rates
as Hunt ran off a streak of ten s.aight
points early in the half to push ECU to
56-44. During Hunt's hot streak ECU had
moved to within 11 at 51-40, but a
three-point play widened the gap.
St. Peter's followed with a 9-4 spread
over ECU and Dave Patton called a
time-out with the Bucs down by 60-44.
The lead stayed between 12 and 19
points the remainder of the game, with
ECU and St. Peter's trading spurts into
the late stages of the oame.
AI Edwards pumped in four straight
buckets at one point to pull ECU to
66-54, but the Pirates turned the ball over
continuously to help the scrappy
Peacocks out of a jam.
With two minutes to play, ECU fell
behind at 79-60 and that just about nailed
the victory for St. Peter's. Ty Edwards
had a chance to make the score closer
after the buzzer with two ree throws, but
missed both shots, keeping the final at
83-67

It was a little less than a year ago,
February 4 to be exact, that East
Carolina's wrestling team registered a
23-18 win over the North Carolina Tar
Heels.
In that match, the Pirates went into
the final match trailing 18-17. ECU'S
heavyweight, Willie Bryant, came through
with a pin in that final match and the
Pirates went away with a win.
Tonight the Pirate wrestling team
travels to Carolina's home mat to meet
the Tar Heels, who lost to a pair of
nationally-ranked squads in their last two
meets and boast a 6-4 record.
ECU coach John Welbom is calling
the meet one of the Pirates' biggest of
the year.
"This has to be one of the biggest
matches of the year for us said
Welbom. "Last year we had to go right
down to the last match to pull the
victory out. North Carolina really
dominated things in this year's North
Carolina Invitational Tournament, so it
should really be a close match
If Welbom bears in mind the last two
matches the Tar Heels have competed in,
he certainly must believe what he is
saying.
Those two matches found the Tar
Heels losing to ninth-ranked Navy,
21-16, and 13th-ranked Clarion State,
24-19, in a pair of matches held at the
Naval Academy.
Against Navy, the Tar Heels wrestled
their best match of the year, according to
coach Bill Lam.
"Against Navy, we wrestled our best
match of the year said Lam. "We could
have easily won both matches. Scotty
Conkwright and Dean Brior wrestled very
well, and they are looking better than
anybody else on the team right now
Brior has an 8-1 individual record this
year and Conkwright is 6-1. This should
interest ECU since Brior wrestles at 177
pounds, which is the same weight class
that Ron Whitcomb wrestles at for the
Pirates. With Whitcomb holding a 21-1
record this season, the match between
he and Brior should be a crucial one.
Conkwright will wrestle at 118 pounds
for the Tar Heels, which will pit him
against the P'rates' freshman Wendell
Hardy in tonight's opening contest. In
the two weekend matches, Brior won two
superior decisions and Conkwright
registered a pin in the only match he
wrestled.
Another interesting matchup in
tonight's competition should arise in the
142 pound class, where ECU's Tom
Marriott will meet Carolina's Dave
Juergens. The match will be a grudge
confrontation of sorts for Marriott, who
lost a decision to Juergens in the N.C.
Invitational earlier this year. Marriott had
won the N.C. Invitational three times
previously.
UNC coach Lam expects a close
match with East Carolina, adding that the
Pirates are strong in every class.
"East Carolina is a real good dual
match team said Lam. "They don't have
a weak weight. We've got to win our first
five or six matches, because it almost
looks impossible for us to win the last
four. It will definitely be a tough match
for us and ECU will definitely be a tough
opponent
Whether or not Lam is trying to butter
up the Pirate wrestlers with his
comments will be seen tonight when the
two squads square off at 8 p.m. in
Chapel Hill.
Pirate swimmers face fifth-ranked Pack
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
The powerful N.C. State swim team
invades Minges Natatorium Saturday for
one of the biggest meets in East Carolina
history.
In the Wolfpack, the Pirates will be
facing the fifth best team in the nation.
The Wolfpack has three swimmers that
have a good chance to make the
Olympics. They have the nation's best
time in one event and are second in
another.
The Bucs will counter with a strong
contingent of sprint swimmers and
Stewart Mann, who has set four
individual records in the last two weeks
for various events.
Head coach Ray Scharf is looking for
a good meet. "It should be a fine meet,
produce some great times, a lot of
national qualifying times stated the
veteran mentor. "But, realistically, we are
facing one of the top teams in the
nation. It will be tough to win, but I'm
looking for some fine performances
State freshman Duncan Goodhew has
posted the fastest time in the nation in
the 100-yard breast stroke this year with a
clocking of : 58.17. This puts him two
seconds ahead of the next best time in
this event. He is also second best in the
country in the 200 breaststroke with a
time of 2:08.47. He will be going against
David Kirkman of the Bucs who holds the
Pirate varsity record at 2:15.80.
The short races should be real close
as both teams have quality swimmers in
these events. In the 50 freestyle, the
Pirates will have John McCauley and
Billy Thome against State's Raybum and
Leslie. McCauley has swam the 50 in
21.51 this season for the Minges pool
record. Thome has had a best of 21.81 in
the event. They will gain stiff competition
from the Wolf pack's Raybum and Leslie.
Raybum has gone 50 yards in 21.8, while
Leslie has swum the distance in 22.26
In the 100 freestyle, McCauley and
Ross Bolhken of the Bucs should have a
tight race against Raybum and Bryan of
the Pack. McCauley has a best of 47.51
while Bohlken has a 47.59 to his credit.
Rayburn and Bryan have both gone the
distance in under 48 seconds.
The 200 freestyle should produce
some fantastic times as five class
athletes will most likely be entered in
it. Steve Gregg and Sid Cassidy,
All-Americas of the Pack, have swam
great times of 1:44.0 and 1:44.1,
respectively. Bohlken has had a 1:44.53
to his credit this season while Houchin
and Bryan of State have had around 1:45.
Gregg and Cassidy have had very
strong performances in the 500 and 1000
freestyles this year. In the 1000, both
have had better than 9:40 while in the
500 both have rx? in the 4.30's. Stewart
Mann of ECU h. had varsity records in
these events of . .53.7 in the 1000 and
4:49.11 in the 500.
In the 200 butterfly, State brings in
one of the best in the nation in Morlok.
Morlok has clocked a fantastic time of
1:55.26. Teammate Bishku has timed out
in 1:59.14 while Steve Ruedlinger of the
Bucs has clocked a 1:59.57 and Keith
Wade has gone the distance in just over
two minutes.
The 200-yard individual medley should
provide some strong excitement if
Houchin of State and Mann of the Pirates
hook up in a race. Houchin has covered
the event in 1:58.5 while Mann has set
the varsity record for the Bucs at
1.58.81
The relay teams of both State and
ECU have been extra strong all year. The
Pack has clocked 3:32.8 in the 400
medley relay while ECU has timed out in
3:36.47, this time coming when they
were not being pushed. In the 400
freestyle relay, the Pirates have timed out
at 3:09.81, again while not being pushed.
The State team has not registered a real
good time but has the swimmers to do a
fine time.
In the diving tank, the Pack has two
of the best divers in the nation in
McHenry and Dufficy. They are very
strong and should give Lund Sox some
good experience jumping against class
competition.
Up front, the meet has the appearance
of being a great one and a full house is
expected to be on hand.

Marriott holding top spot in Southern Conference
By SAM ROGERS
Staff Writer
During his very first year at East
Carolina Tom Marriott established
himself at the top of the Southern
Conference and he has not relinquished
the position since then. Judging from the
way he has destroyed competition during
his three-year career at ECU, it's unlikely
anyone will take that title away from him
this year, either.
Marriott walked away with the
Southern Conference title in the 150
pound weight class during his freshman
year and during the past two seasons he
has taken the championship in the 142
pound weight class. Add eight
tournament championships, a 103-18
overall record, along with three trips to
the NCAA Tournament and Marriott has
quite an impressive list of wrestling
accomlishments.
But then big things were expected
from Marriott whet) he graduated from
Herkimer High School in Herkimer, N.Y.
During his senior year, he won 25
consecutive matches before losing in the
finals of the New York State High School
Championships.
"Yes, I was really quite surprised that
I came down here and did so well during
my first yec said Marriott, "but I've
always been a confident wrestler.
Confidence has most definitely been a
key factor to my success throughout my
wrestling career
Despite Marriott's brilliance over the
last three years, he has been somewhat
slowed this season because of a nagging
ankle injury and a bronchial infection. He
missed the Neptune Invitational because
of the ankle injury, managed to win his
third straight Monarch Open title, but
then lost in the second round of the
North Carolina Invitational. When he was
beaten by Oregon State's Dick Knorr and
then missed the rest of the quad meet
because of the bronchial infection, things
seemed to be sliding further downhill for
Marriott.
"I guess it has been somewhat of a
slow start for me as compared to
previous years said Marriott, "I think
in the long run this will benefit me. One
problem I have had for the past two years
TOM MARRIOTT
was peaking too early. By the end of the
year I wasn't wrestling nearly as well as I
had been at the beginning of the year
Marriott has bounced back to win
three straight matches, against West
Chester and conference opponents
William and Mary and Richmond, and is
aiming for a fourth consecutive Southern
Conference title and a trip to the
nationals. First, Marriott wants to settle
a little grudge match against Dave
Juergens of North Carolina, in tonight's
battle against the Tar Heels. Juergens
knocked Marriott out of the N.C.
Invitational in the second round, denying
Marriott a fourth straight championship
title in the tournament.
"I was pretty disappointed that I
didn't win the tournament for four
straight years said Marriott, "but I know
I can beat him. Our matches against
Carolina and N.C. State are always pretty
big, especially since their wrestling
programs have come a long way during
the past three years
Crosby is making transition to college basketball
Louis Crosby came to East Carolina
University with impressive credentials
from his high school days. In fact, those
credentialsas High School All-America
and a member of the North Carolina
All-Star team-have hung over the Shelby,
N.C. native like a dark cloud. This
recognition meant Crosby had to play
like a superstar, even though he was just
another college freshman trying to make
the adjustment to college basketball.
For Crosby, all the publicity just
made it harder for him to adjust to the
East Carolina scene and the team's style
of play.
"I just wanted to consider myself
another basketball player explained
Crosby. "I didn't like being pushed as an
All-America or to be constantly spoken of
in terms of David Thompson. It put some
pressure on me besides the fact that I
was a freshman
But to the hopeful ECU fans it was
hard to see Crosby as just another
freshman, many actually believed he
would be the man to take over the reigns
of the ECU offense.
It hasn't happened that way. In fact, if
anything Crosby has had to learn as
much as his teammates. Considered the
top prospect in North Carolina by many
last year, maybe even Crosby's
teammates looked to him as a leader. A
big task that would be for any player,
much less one who was trying to live up
to his high school days.
Despite the pressure, though, Crosby
has been the saving grace many times for
the East Carolina varsity and coach Dave
Patton can see continuing improvement
from his 6-3 freshman.
"Louis has shown real signs of
brilliance his year said Patton "I'm
most satisfied" with his progress,
although he is like any other freshman.
He makes mistakes like any other
freshman and has things to learn like any
other freshman, but he has a tremendous
attitude. I'm sure that as he plays more
he will correct those mistakes and get
better
One example of the way Crosby
can play, and perhaps his finest game so
far this year, came against the Furman
Paladins on January 10.
In that game. Crosby scored 22 points
against the defending Southern Confer-
ence champions to lead ECU to a 72-68
victory. During that game, Crosby made
11 of the 16 shots he attempted.
Maybe that game set off a spark in
Crosby, for since that time he has hit for
a .552 field goal percentage and moved in
as the leading ECU shooter, with a .517
percentage.
He is averaging only 7.2 points per
game, but the contributions which he has
made over the last month have been
more in relation to his playr iking
ability. Perhaps most important to the
ECU team is the fact that Crosby is
developing into a leader.
Despite this improvement, though,
Crosby is not happy with his play.
"I'm really kind of disappointed in my

play he explains, "I know I can play
much better. My main goal is to play up
to my fullest capabilities, which is
something I haven't done yet. I'm just
LOUIS CROSBY
trying to put together on" solid game
Crosby's hopes must correspond with
those of his ECU teammates, who have
won only two of their last seven games
before Tuesday night's clash. Nonethe-
less, it seems that Crosby is making
improvements in learning the East
Carolina system, a factor that could be
important to his development as a team
player and the improvement of the ECU
team as a whole.
"I'm just beginning to learn about
basketball reasoned Crosby. "The
col leg- game is a more complex game
than high school ball. It's more complex
than I ever expected.
"In high school you kind of worried
about your own play, but here I've got to
be more in the game. There are four
individuals out there with equal talent as
your own and you have got to get in a
groove with them. What I do or don't do
might mean two points to the team
This year's team t,as not been the run
and shoot type team it was last year, or
has it been the type team which Crosby
played for in high school. This has
caused some problems in adjusting for
him.
"I've had to slow myself down and
play within the limits of the team and our
game. It was tough to adjust to at first.

Lynn Williford: Practice pays offfor ECU twirler
It's easy, in this year of the
Eicentennial, to think patriotic thoughts.
It's easy to think of the outstanding men
and women who started this country and
thus made this year possible.
Many of the concepts popular in 1776
seem to have fallen by the wayside
today, though. And if it weren't for
people ike Lynn Williford, you'd wonder
if there will be any celebrations in the
next 200 years.
Miss Williford is an 18-year-old
freshman from Wilmington, N.C. Pirate
football fans were introduced to her last
fall when the Pirates visited Carter
Stadum in Raleigh. Miss Williford made
her debut as the feature baton twirler
with the Marching Pirates.
I had never seen so many people at
one football game she recalled. "But I
had never enjoyed myself so much
before, either
While she was admittedly awed by the
huge crowd. Miss Williford put on a
performance that awed the crowd as well.
She has a quiet confidence in her ability
to do things like that. After all, she has
been voted America's Most Beautiful
Majorette (1974) and first-runnerup to the
Majorette Queen for America (1975) in
nationwirip competition.
Miss Williford says you can't be
bashful when performing as she does.
She also says you have to work hard and
be extremely dedicated to what you think
is important. That's why she is in her
back yard every summer morning at six
a.m starting time for a six-hour
workout.
"I start early, take a 15-minute break
every hour, sleep during the heat of the
day, then finish sometimes around nine
in the evening she said. "I've been
doing this for the last nine years
She took her first lesson at age six.
She went to the national championships
first at age 10, where she was picked the
United States National Twirling champion
in her age group. She has gone to the
national tournament almost every year
since, winning the North Carolina state
title twice. In 1973 she was first-runnerup

Women's Intramural Basketball
The Whatchamacallits' 38-21 victory over previously unbeaten No. 1 Fletcher
propelled them to first place in this week's Women's Intramural Basketball Weekly
Top Ten. The Whatchamacallits also creamed 10th Floor Clement, 41-10, last Monday
to make it two victories for the week and a fine 6-0 record overall.
Ginny Mernfield led Granny's Greats to a 50-6 drubbing of hapless 8th Floor
Clement with a fine 20 point performance. Kim Michael poured in 18 points in two
consecutive games last week against the Dav-Do-Bees and Greene II, respectively.
In other action, Alpha Omicron Pi beat Alpha Phi, 18-12,in real tough battle last
Monday afternoon. Greene I dumped Clement's Crazies, 3b-d; Chi Omega II was held
virtually scoreless by a good Sigma Sigma No. 1 team in a 34-2 loss on Tuesday.
Wednesday's action found the Chi Omega I team easing some of their Sister's
embarrassment as a result of Tuesday's defeat at the hands of Sigma Sigma Sigma
No. 1 by downing Tri Sigma No. 1, 16-12. On Thursday, the Chi Omega II team really
avenged their earlier loss by crushing Sigma Sigma Sigma No. 2, 36-0.

LYNN WILLIFORD
to the Junior Miss Majorette of America.
Often a person with Miss Williford's
devotion will be looked upon as
old-fashioned. The "in" thing for today's
professional athletes is to demand more
money, change teams, change sports, or
instigate lawsuits. The motivation behind
her actions is much more simple:
"I made myself realize that while there
may not be anyone in Wilmington who is
doing this, someone somewhere in the
country is working this hard as well she
said. "The work is simply a part of
achieving a goal I set for myself
Twirling hasn't been all fun and
games for this music and dance major,
though. One year she hit herself in the
eye and spent the national tournament
days in a hospital in Durham, having
three holes and a rupture repaired to
improve her vision. As a high school
performer, she was responsible for
working out not only her own routine,
but those of eight other squad members.
She points, however, to her family as
one of her greatest positive influences in
her life. "My mother is my biggest critic
and my best friend in this regard she
said. "My father is a former drill
sergeant, and helps me with the military
strut from the army. My older brother,
Chuck, helps me time my routines to
music and my younger brother, Tim,
helps carry the luggage when we all go
to tournaments
Among the reigning North Carolina
Azalea Teenage Princess's other assets
are her calm manner under pressure and
fashion-model good looks. She hasn't let
the honors turn her head In the past and
it's a safe bet she won't in the future. For
Miss Williford has put her life and the
baton In proper perspective. And you can
bet that's the way our ancestors would
have wanted it to be, 200 years ago
today.

ime-Out
By JOHN EVAN
Sports Editor
One Official Calls It Quits
It was announced yesterday that Jimmy Howell had announced his retirement from
the officiating ranks. As far as can be reasoned, Howell's resignation stemmed from
pressure he felt officiating the high-pressured Atlantic Coast Conference games.
Howell, in his last two jobs, had worked in a pair of overtime games between
Maryland and Carolina and Duke and Wake Forest.
His resignation comes at a time when collegiate basketball officials, and officials
in general, have been besieged with criticism in regards to their competence.
Howell, a successful businessman in Washington, D.C probably reasoned it was
not worth all the hassle and nervousness that are involved in refereeing the
high-pressured ACC games.
The fact of the matter, though, was that Howell was a good official, or at least as
far as officials go. He had on several occasions officiated the NCAA playoffs and
even made it all the way to the top by officiating the NCAA finals one year.
With HoweH's resignation, the Southern Conference loses its most competent
(though, not necessarily the only competent) official. Howell has won the "so-called"
Silver Whistle Award presented by the Southern Conference each year for the last
three years. This award is symbolic of being the best official in the loop.
When one considers the caliber of officials in the ACC the last few years, as wen
as in the Southern if the loop is worth mentioning, Howell's resignation is a real loss.
He was not always the best official, or was not always correct in the call he
made-but he was certainly one of the finer gentlemen in his profession. Too bad,
there could not be more officials of his caliber.
MORE ON THE MATTER OF OFFICIATING
Over the past few weeks, this writer has seen some of the worst officiated
basketball games he has even seen, both in person and on the tube.One classic game
of lousy officiating this writer missed, however, seems to be Tuesday night's ECU-St.
Peter's game.
If one can believe ECU announcer Lee Moore's evaluation of the officiating dunng
the game, the following tidbits from Moore's play-by-play should illustrate just how
competent the officiating was in Jersey City on Tuesday.
one of the two officials is really inepthe coesni get around well at all and
you really have to feei sony for him. He really doesn't have anything to call, but he
blows the whistle because he has to call something. And when you are playing at St.
Peter'sthe call usually goes in favor of St. Peter's
Later in the game, Moore called it without a doubt the worse officiated game I
have ever seen
Anyway, Moore did not think the officials did too good a job. But, in New Jersey,
what can a southern team expect.
It will be interesting to see if the officiating gets better in coming games, but our
guess is that it will just continue as it is-that is, adequate at best.

CROSBY
Continued from page 17.
We really ran in high school and when I
turned the ball over it really did not
matter because we were usually ahead. In
college, a turnover is usually crucial
every time
louis Crosby is fast learning that the
past is over and now it is time for the
fans to realize that. At East Carolina, the
situation is different and Crosby is trying
to learn as fast as he can.
Surely, ECU opponents are beginning
to see that improvement and, more than
likely, they won't look forward to the day
sometime down the road when he finally
arrives.
BASKETBALL
Continued from
16.
The game's leading scorer was St.
Peter's Bob Fazio. Fazio scored 25
points, most on short jumpers and follow
up shots. Ken Slappy and Steve
Richardson aach added 14 for the
Peacocks.
The losers were led by Earl Gamer's
16 points. Al Edwards finished with 14
points, scoring 12 in the final half, and
Hunt's 12 points in the final half gave-
him 13 for the game.
