Signs Indicate Army
ROTC Will Continue
To Grow In Future
By DENNIS M. KILCOYNE
SUIT Writer
The Army Reserve Officers Training Corps began
operating last month at ECU. It already has 59 cadets
in the basic course (freshman and sophomores) and
32 in the advanced course (juniors and seniors), and
will exist alongside the already successful Air Force
ROTC.
The head of the Army program, Maj. Michael
Bishop, said that all signs indicate that his group's
program will grow substantially in the next few years.
Student enrollees can choose two tracks in ROTC.
In the four year program, interested freshmen and
sophomores can take the basic courses for six credit
hours of military science without committing
themselves to joining ROTC. Next comes the advanc-
ed courses of sixteen credit hours in which a student
formally joins AROTC.
In the two-year program, upperclassmen entered
AROTC with the immediate service obligation of
three years after graduation. The basic and advanced
courses are combined in two years. In addition, two
and three-year scholarships can be won by eligible
students who have at least a 2.5 grade point average.
The scholarships pay for books, tuition and fees in
addition to the $100 per month that all cadets receive
for the ten-month school year.
Cadets are civilian students who study whatever
major and minor fields they wish. On graduation,
they are commissioned as second lieutenants and can
enter active duty for three years. If they choose the
national guard or the reserves, the obligation is eight
years. Nurses, because they are in short supply, go in-
to active service.

The second round of the SGA
elections is set for Wednesday,
with 72 ECU students vying for
positions from graduate class
president to day representative.
Ten students are running unop-
posed, while six other positions,
including junior class vice presi-
dent, have no candidates on the
ballot. The election polls are
located throughout campus and
will be open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Newly appointed elections com-
mittee chairman Walter Shore
said he is confident that the ad-
ministrative problems which
resulted in the cancellation of last
month's SGA election results have
been smoothed over. "I don't
foresee any problems on Wednes-
day Shore said Monday.
"Things will run smooth this
time; we've gotten a lot of sup-
port
In the previous election held on
Sept. 28, 20 candidates' names
were left off the ballot because
they had failed to file a financial
statement. But according to of-
ficial SGA election rules, failure
to file the financial expense report
is not grounds for disqualifica-
tion. As a result, the first election
was declared void and the entire
process was reconducted.
General Manager Leaves
B PATRICK. O' NE1LL
Staff Writer
East Carolinan General
Manager Fielding Miller resigned
his position Friday because he is
no longer a full-time student, a re-
quirement the Media Board set
for the heads of all campus media.
"As you are aware, the Media
Board constitution requires that
all media heads be full-time
students, thus I am ineligible to
continue in my present capacity as
general manager of The East
Carolinian Miller wrote in a let-
ter he sent to Vice Chancellor for
Student Life Elmer Meyer.
"In accordance with the univer-
sity and Media Board policy, I'm
giving official notice of the
change in my status I am
resigning my position effect this
date: October 7
Miller joined The But C?roU-
nian staff in 1981 when he was ap-
pointed business manager. He was
appointed to the position of
general manager in May of 1982
as part of administrative restruc-
turing effort which gave the
general manager complete respon-
sibility of the business aspects of
The East Carolinian, while
keeping the post of a managing
editor to oversee the editorial con-
tent of the paper. Both positions
replaced the role formerally con-
ducted by the editor-in-chief.
"I throughly enjoyed my time
and work with the staff of The
East Carolinian Miller said
Monday. "I've met a lot of good
people in the last two years
"I feel like it's been a successful
tenure Miller said. "I want to
thank all the business staff and
other people who have helped me
in my work
Miller said he tried and succeed-
ed in bringing "a business pro-
spective" to the newspaper which
will save money in the future.
Miller praised the efforts of the
editorial staff. "I've had a
capable editorial staff throughout
my years here he said.
"Fielding Miller was the first
general manager of The East
Carolinian under the changed
organizational structure Meyer
said Monday. "(He's) done a lot
to enhance the business side of
The East Carolinian
"During the terms of his office,
The East Carolinian has certainly
been an improved newspaper
said Associate Dean and Director
of University Unions S. Rudolph
Alexander. "The overall quality
of the paper has improved. I've
always found him a very
Former SGA elections commit-
tee chairman Danny White also
had difficulties getting people to
volunteer to supervise polls during
the last election. As a result some
polls had to be shut down early.
White resigned his post on Oct. 3.
"It's a total new election said
Shore, adding that the entire pro-
cess from filing to the ballot "had
to be done over from the beginn-
ing
Shore held a mandatory
meeting for all candidates to ex-
plain the election rules. "They all
received a schedule informing
them when the financial
statements were due Shore said.
The financial statements had to
be submitted by noon on Mon-
day. According to Shore, four
candidates were disqualified from
the second election after failing to
file the statement.
As of Monday Shore was still
short on volunteers to tend the
pollls. "As of yet they're (the
polls) not completely covered
he said. "But I don't feel it's go-
ing to be a problem Shore said
he still has individuals to call for
assistance.
"All the candidates were in-
formed correctly; there was no
room left for misunderstanding
Shore said.
Shore, who is paid $125 per
election for his position, said the
problems of the first election were
not the fault of the elections com-
mittee, but rather an error in the
intrepretation of the rules.
Voting Urged
By PATRICK O'NEILL
SUit Writer
Student Government
Association President Paul
Naso is urging students to "get
out and vote" in Wednesday's
SGA elections.
"I can't stress enough the
importance of your vote
Naso said Monday. "This is
your chance; these people will
be your representatives; your
vote will make the
difference
Naso said polls would be
set-up from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at
the Belk building, the Student
Supply Store, the Croatan,
Mendanhall Student Center,
the bottom of College Hill,
and in the lobby of Jarvis

Watt Resigns
ECU's Rebel '83, the universi-
ty's literary-art magazine, reciev-
ed the Columbia Scholastic Press
Association First Place Medalist
Award in the 60th annual contest.
This rating gives the Rebel a rank-
ing among the top five in the
country. Out of a possible score
of 1000 points in the judging, the
Rebel received 948.6.
In an interview Friday, Ellen
Moore, editor of the magazine,
said, "I was very surprised we
won it again The Rebel won the
same award in 1982.
Moore said she wasn't sure
Rebel '83 had what was needed to
win. "There were problems with
the staff last year that made pro-
duction later than scheduled, and
organization was almost nonexis-
tent Moore said. "It was fun to
put together, but it was also a lot
of hard work
In the judge's score and
workbook, a judge commented
that the Rebel is "more than a cut
above most other collegiate
literary-art magazines
The Rebel is having its annual
contest next month. The deadline
for entry in the literature contests
is Nov. 7; the art contest deadline
is Nov. 14. Prize money is provid-
ed by The Attic and Budweiser.
Winning entries will be published
in Rebel '?? and entered in the
61st annual Columbia Scholastic

Sierra Club Questions Move
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (UPI)
? Interior Secretary James
Watt's resignation comes as a
relief to the national president of
the Sierra Club, but he questioned
whether the move would mean an
end to the Reagan
administration's environmental
policies.
"We have been trying for some
time to encourage the secretary's
resignation said Denny Shaffer,
leader of the 350,000-member en-
vironmental group. "The insults
to our intelligence will diminish
now, I think. I think the question
to be answered is whether the
assaults on our environment will.
"Watt's insensitive comments
and his outrageous behavior, un-
fortunately, obscured the policy
of this administration, which I
think are equally disgraceful and
unacceptable to the American
public he said Sunday.
Watt resigned Sunday, saying
he had accomplished the goals he
set when he joined the Reagan ad-
ministration. The resignation was
widely seen as forced because of
public outcry over Watt's remark
that he had an advisory panel
composed of a "black a
woman, two Jews and a cripple
Shaffer said it is ironic that
Watt's resignation came as the
result of his comments, rather
than his actions.
"I think it is ironic that his
speech and comments have been
so outrageous that they have
covered his deeds, which are
equally outrageous and are as in-
sensitive to the environment as his
comments are to human beings
Shaffer said.
He said the Sierra Club's con-
cern now is whether President
Reagan will replace Watt with
"some sort of glib salesman for
the same policies.
"I think for some time people
have been assuming some of these
more outrageous polices have
been policies of Jim Watt Shaf-
fer said.
Shaffer said he has no par-
ticular favorite among those nam-
ed as possible replacements for
Watt, but he would like the ad-
ministration to choose someone
who would fulfill "the charge of
being steward

RALEIGH (UPI) ? Wake County Commissioner
Betty Ann Knudsen says it's time to start a new tradi-
tion in the secretary of state's office by ending Thad
Eure's 46-year hold on the job.
Mrs. Knudsen announced Monday she will vie
against the 83-year-old Eure next year for the
Democratic nomination. No Republicans have an-
nounced their candidacy.
"I firmly believe North Carolinians deserve a
secretary of state who has a vision of the future, not
who is rooted in the past Mrs. Knudsen said in an
annoucement at the Capitol. I am asking the peo-
ple of North Carolina to give me a chance to update
and improve the office of secretary of state, to imple-
ment a new tradition
Mrs. Knudsen said Eure has done a good job car-
rying out the office's ceremonial functions, but has
fallen short in his other duties of promoting new state
policies and distributing information.
Her campaign goals are to computerize more state
records, return the state Board of Elections to the
secretary's control, update official publications, im-
prove monitoring of businesses by the Securities
Division and work to implement the recommenda-
tions of the North Carolina 2000 Committee.
Mrs. Knudsen, who turned 57 Monday, predicted
she will need to spend $150,000 on the primary and
general election. She is expected to garner support
from women's groups, and currently is the only
woman seeking any statewide elective office.
Eure won the secretary of state's office in 1936 and
has been a colorful part of state politics ever since.
He calls himself "the oldest rat in the Democratic
barn" and appears regularly at gatherings across
North Carolina.
He has won re-election easily every four years since
then, except in 1976 when George W. Breece of
Fayetteville came within 45,000 votes of him.

Gubernatorial Candidate Uses
Unique Approach To Win Votes
By GLENN
MAUGHAN
Staff Writar
"People not
Politics" is the slogan
Tom Gilmore uses to
describe his campaign
for governor of North
Carolina in 1984.
Even more unique is
Gilmore's approach
for winning votes. He
will work at 84 dif-
ferent jobs prior to
election day next
November.
"It's a way to
demonstrate his
sincerity and learn
first-hand about the
problems facing the
people of North
Carolina Melanie
Reid, spokeswomenn
for Gilmore's cam-
paign, said. "The day
he announced his can-
didacy, he worked in
a day-care center for
four and five year
olds; took a lunch
break to make the an-
nouncement and went
back to the center
Reid said.
News
Feature
Gilmore has
already worked as a
peanut farmer, tobac-
co farmer, turkey pro-
ducer, ham salter,
shrimp deheader, car
salesman, school
teacher, brick mason,
health care assistant,
produce farmer,
tobacco primer and
tagger, textile worker,
housewife and other
occupations.
His "housewife
job" brought him to
the home of Vince
and Malyn Pratt of
Charlotte, N.C, on
Monday, Oct. 3. Mrs.
Pratt said Gilmore
came early to meet
their children since he
would care for them
on Tuesday. "He got
our children ready for
bed, read them a story
and spent the night
with us. He fixed us
all breakfast in the
morning she said.
Gilmore then got
five-year-old Michael
ready for school, fix-
ed Michael's lunch
and drove Michael
and some other
children to school. He
came home and went
grocery shopping with
Marirose, the Pratt's
three-year-old
daughter. After shop-
ping, he made the
beds, vacuumed,
dusted, did three
loads of wash, made
lunch, played with the
children and baked a
cake.
"We had a
delicious meal for din-
ner that he fixed en-
tirely; he even did the
dishes later Pratt
said. She added she
was impressed with
Gilmore. "He took
his job very seriously
and the children really
fell in love with him
she said.
"I think he left our
house with a greater
understanding of
what it means to keep
house she said.
Gilmore's cam-
paign philosophy pro-
duced an unusual
twist while he worked
as a dairy farmer. He
delivered a bull on the
same day his grand-
son was born.
Gilmore's schedule
has him working as a
radio DJ, a waiter,
commercial fisherman
and student, among
others, during Oc-
tober. Monday,
Gilmore was in
Greenville to work as
a parking lot atten-
dant at Pitt County
Memorial Hospital.

Organizers are
planning for more
than 1,000 people to
converge on the state
capital in Raleigh Oct.
22 to participate in
North Carolina's first
anti-nuclear rally and
march.
The gathering, bill-
ed as the "March on
Raleigh is focusing
on several issues,
primarily opposition
to U.S. plans to
deploy Pershing II
and cruise missies ;n
Western Europe later
this year.
According to
retired Air Force Col.
James F. Berry, the
Raleigh event is a
"strong grass roots
statement" showing
the public is tired of
living in fear of
nuclear war.
Berry is one of the
organizers of the
event which is spon-
sored by more than 2C
organizations from
throughout the state.
Prominent among the
event's sponsors is the
N.C. Peace Network,
the Raleigh Catholic
Diocese and the War
Resister League.
The rally begins at
11:30 a.m. behind the
state legislature where
participants will
gather to listen to
several speakers.
Speakers include Kel-
ly Alexander Jr
president of the NC-
NAACP, Richmond,
Va Catholic Bishop
Walter Sullivan,
former U.S. attorney
Mickey Michaux,
labor leader Wilber
Hobby and former
N.C. State University
Chancellor John
Caldwell.
The March on
Raleigh organizers say
they have three goals
in addition to opposi-
tion to Euromissile
deployment: reversing
the arms race, freez-
ing nuclear weapons
and funding human
needs.
Berry spent 31 years
in the Air Force
before retiring in
1968. He opposes the
Euromissile deploy-
ment because he says
the placement of the
missiles increases the
risk of a nuclear acci-
dent.
"The key problem
is warning time
Berry said. "You've
got a flight time of
less than 10 minutes.
When the Soviets get
an indication (of a
possible nuclear at-
tack) they will have a
very short time to
react
Berry admits, that
because of their
SS-20's already in
place, the Soviets
have a "clear advan-
tage" in terms of their
capability to destroy
Western Europe, but
he sees the U.S.
deployment of cruise
and Pershing II 's as
increasing tension and
creating further in-
stability.
Berry believes
retired military of-
ficers should be at the
forefront of the
nuclear and military
debates. "It is a pro-
per thing for retired
military people to
enter into this
debate he said. "It
is the function of
military services to
implement policies
that are established by
the civilian govern-
ment. It is not the
function of the
military to make

Does your genetic
makeup determine
your environment?
"How People Make
Their Environments"
is the title of a talk to
be presented Thurs-
day, Oct. 13 by Dr.
Sandra Scarr, a
developmental
behavior geneticist.
The talk is spon-
sored by the ECU
Psychology Depart-
ment. Dr. Scarr is cur-
rently on leave from
the University of
Virginia where she is a
professor of
psychology.
Prior to her ap-
pointment at UVA
Scarr spent five years
as a professor at Yale.
She has produced
over 100 publications
and is the editor of
Developmental
Psychology, a
psychological journal.
Scarr will discuss
how many effects
psychologists at-
tribute to the environ-
ment are in fact due to
genetic influences.
Scarr believes the en-
vironments in-
dividuals seek for
themselves and the en-
vironments they ex-
perience are determin-
ed by their genetic
makeup.
The talk will be at
9:30 a.m. in McGin-
nes Theatre. Scarr is
the first of a series of
speakers to be spon-
sored by the
Psychology Depart-
ment. All interested
persons are invited to
attend.

Watt Goes
Leaving Won t Change Policies
Secretary of the Interior James
G. Watt stated it best when he said
in his resignation letter to Presi-
dent Reagan'the time has come
Never has Watt said anything bet-
ter. His and the administration's
pro-developmental policies have
angered many, and we, like many
others, are glad to see him go. On-
ly, unlike Watt, we thought the
time had come a long time ago.
Unfortunately, his leaving does
not mean the end to what he stood
for. Because, ultimately, the per-
son responsible for what the In-
terior Secretary did is still sitting in
the Oval Office. Both Reagan and
Watt symbolize the heart of true
capitalist Republicanism: the pro-
motion of individual enterprise
unhindered by regulations design-
ed to help the environment. The
man firing the gun may be gone,
but, regretfully, the gun is still
there ? and loaded.
We are not against free enter-
prise. A system where the poorest
man can become rich because of
his ingenuity and hard work is, in
our eyes, the best system. Yet,
unregulated use of the environ-
ment for pure monetary gain is just
not possible in an era where
natural beauty has become an en-
dangered species. However, we,
like many others, realize the
secretary didn't leave because he
had been raping the land; he left
because he had incurable hoof-in-
mouth disease.
Environmentalists who have
been clamoring for Watt's resigna-
tion even before he was in office
should find little solace that the
outspoken secretary is gone. In
fact, they weren't the ones that
pushed him out of office. The
Sierra Club, which had a petition
calling for his resignation signed
by an astronomical amount of peo-
ple, wasn't able to budge him. The
American public, which con-
sistently gave Watt the lowest
rating of any member of Reagan's
Cabinet, didn't cause his leaving.
It was Watt and the press. In the
end he was a liability to the presi-
dent. But, the man that is gone will
soon be replaced with someone
who believes exactly the same
thing.
So, there is only one thing that
we can truly do if we want to
change the federal government's
environmental policy ? keep
Reagan from winning a second
term. For those of you who care
enough about the environment to
want to save it, get out and vote ?
for anybody but Reagan, but
especially for a candidate who
believes in protecting our precious
natural resources.
You Can't Gripe
Students do not deserve the right
to gripe about student govern-
ment. Sure, they pay the man-
datory fee, and sure they go to
school, but when fewer than 15
percent of the student body votes
in elections and seats in the
legislature go unfilled, its time to
reevaluate the accountability of the
legislators to their "constituency
Whenever there's a problem
with one of the school year's elec-
tions, students read about it in the
paper and say, "Those people
shouldn't be there. They shouldn't
be trusted with my money Well,
the majority of these people are
wrong. Of course, those entrusted
with running the SGA can't be
screwing up all the time. (And they
don't.) But, the average apathetic
student who doesn't get up off his
butt to go and vote or run for
(fill?) a seat in the legislature
doesn't deserve the right to ques-
tion what those on the second floor
of Mendenhall are doing.
What we are basically trying to
say is let's, as educated adults, par-
ticipate in our electoral process ?
whether on a national or university
scale. If being harsh and saying
you don't rate representation will
do it, then we will write these
words from now till eternity.
Come on guys, let's vote.

Coke Is It In South Africa
By DARRYL BROWN
Last week, an East Carolinian staff
writer profiled the effort by some
students at UNC-Chapel Hill to get their
university to divest its financial in-
vestments from all companies operating
in South Africa. The country is run by a
white regime that makes up only 17 per-
cent of the population but controls the
nation's wealth and government and
keeps its citizens classified by apartheid,
a racial segregation system.
Every citizen, according to the
government, falls into one of four racial
groups: white, coloured, asian or (black)
African. The classification is important,
for it determines the entire route of the
rest of one's life in South Africa. The
area in which one can live, the education
one can receive, the jobs one can hold
and the wages one will earn are all defin-
ed by racial classification. No race may
mix with any other.
So, how can Americans, and
American companies, justify dealing
with this nation that blatantly practices
everything we have fought against for
years? Can the simple profit motive
justify American investment in a coun-
try that treats its black citizens no better
than the Soviet Union treats its citizens?
It is a moral question facing Americans
and particularly American investors, for
U.S. firms do business in South Africa
to the tune of $1.5 billion a year, making
the United States the third largest
trading partner of South Africa.
One American businessman, an ex-
ecutive with Coca-Cola who dealt much
with his company's South African
The Truth Of
Repercussions
By GLENN MAUGHAN
The shooting down of Korean Airlines
flight 007 by the Soviet Union happened
more than a month ago. At this point, is
is clear that neither Soviet or U.S.
leaders are going to budge from their
positions regarding the tragic incident.
News of the black box is now relegated
to the back pages; perhaps the full story,
dare I say "the truth will never be
known.
It is now time for the world to really
take a look at this incident and tke note
of the probable repercussions the event
will have on us all.
Shortly after the incident, Soviet
policy expert Andrew Cockburn was
asked what impact he thought the
shooting down of the jet would have on
Americans. He quickly responded the
incident would cost us $25 billion.
Cockburn figured $25 billion in addi-
tional defense expenditures could be
pushed through Congress by President
Reagan now that the Soviets have shown
their "true colors The "evil empire"
image of the Soviets is as stark as ever.
A recent headline in the The New
York Times, "Reagan Rides the Crest
Of An Anti-Soviet Wave suggests the
president is going to use this incident as
an excuse to justify events which could
result in the escalation of the nuclear
arms race and increased U.S. military
adventurism around the globe.
A case in point is Reagan's recent vic-
tory regarding the continued presence of
U.S. Marines in the Middle East. Some
analysts predict Reagan will begin
similar efforts to increase military ac-
tivities in Central America.
"When we came into office, one of
our primary missions was to get
Americans out of the 'Vietnam Syn-
drome' and get them accustomed again
to the idea that projecting power
overseas can help the cause of peace
an administration official said in the
Times story. "Well, it's worked. There's
a consensus on Capitol Hill in favor of
keeping American troops in a battle
operations, has come to justify his
business in the world's most racist coun-
try on more than just monetary terms.
He visited the Coca-Cola facilities as
recently as last March and was in Chapel
Hill last weekend attending a conference
on the history and policy of South
Africa.
He explained that his company began
its operations in South Africa in 1939, at
time when Americans saw nothing
wrong with the white minority govern-
ment, for U.S policy at home enforced
much less than liberty and justice for all.
Later, after the United States affected
slow changes in its policies toward
racism, and the South African govern-
ment seemed to mesh less easily with
U.S. ideals, Coca-Cola stopped putting
money into its South African operation.
They have not expanded their operation
since the early days, but neither have
they discontinued it altogether. Com-
panies cannot pull out of nations every
time policy changes or an unfavorable
government comes to power, the ex-
ecutive explained.
If U.S. companies pulled out of every
country that had human rights viola-
tions, he explained, there would be few
places for American business outside
Europe. He cited Argentina and the
Philippines as two examples of nations
with whom the United States probably
should not, on moral grounds, do
business.
Further, he explained, if his company
did divest, they would have to sell their
factory and operations in South Africa,
probably to the white South African
government. The white regime certainly
would not continue Coke's example of
employee business practices. They
would instead simply spread their racist
national policy to that work site as well.
You see, Coca-Cola considers itself a
good example in South Africa, a son oi
civilized exception doing benevolent
work among heathens. Not because of
the ineffective and largely cosmetic
Sullivan principles, in which American
companies promise non-segregation and
fair work practices, but because of its
personal employee policy. As the ex
ecutive said, "1 feel South Africa is a lit-
tle better place for us having been
there
Coca-Cola offers loans, including
home mortgages, to its employees, as
well as school scholarships lo
employees' children, skill training for
workers and promotions within the com-
pany that would not occur under South
Africa's regular "Job Reservation Act,1'
in which the best jobs are reserved for
whites. All this in a country where two-
thirds of black Africans live in sub-
standard housing below the poverty tine,
where the educational funds for blacks
are one-tenth that for whites and many
subjects or training are not offered in
black schools.
No, Coca-Cola does not, he said, sup-
port the South African government. It is
not expanding its operation there, but is
maintaining what it already established.
in hopes that it is helping the lives of its
employees more than the South African
government. He is not happy with the
racist white regime, but he has worked
out a personal justification for doing
business in South Africa.
Flight 007 Still Unknown;
Shouldn't Aid Arms Race
zone. There's been a significant at-
mospheric change in general
It's a fact the Korean incident makes
it harder for many Americans to trust
the Russians. Even though the plane
flew deep into Korean territory, the in-
itial Soviet cover-up of the incident has
left many of us with a lot of questions.
However, I don't think people should
view this incident as an excuse for the
United States to dump billions more
dollars into the arms race. In fact, the
response should be just the opposite.
Even more wierd is the fact we have
always viewed Russia with a wary eye; so
now, with all the bellicose rhetoric, one
might believe we thought they were once
the "good guys" in the first place.
Because most college students are of
draft-registering age, any power Reagan
is likely to project overseas will be done
with your bodies. It won't surprise me if
we see the draft reactivated in the near
future. History, drafts and wars have a
way of repeating themselves.
Before you get too excited about
fighting for your country, take the time
to find out what it is you're fighting for.
As many of us who went to Vietnam
found out, the reason for the fight was
never worth it. Many of us found out
too late.
Campus Forum
Tm Not Him'
In a recent letter to the editor, of the
Daily Reflector, William C. Byrd III
raised questions about the matter of
changes in deans of the various schools
at ECU. One might have supposed that
the author felt there was some
"scheme" afoot which was responsible
for many deans' leaving their posts.
I am not knowledgeable of all the
reasons for changes in deans. Some, I
believe, have simply retired. At least
one, I believe, simply was tired of the
administrative role and wanted to
return to teaching.
I write to you and our student body
for two reasons: first, I believe we have
a good administration at ECU which is
not in the business of dark and hurtful
schemes; secondly, my name is almost
the same as that of the author of the
letter to the Daily Reflector. To further
confuse people, the ECU telephone
book lists me, erroneously, as William
C. Byrd III.
For students and faculty alike, let it
be known I am "the sometimes in-
famous, William Carlton Byrd St

ing active in the American Civil Liber-
ties Union, the ECU Federation of

But don't credit me with those written
by William C. Byrd III.

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
OCTOBER n, 1983

AROTC Enrollment Up; Outlook Good
Cont. From Page 1
Until it proves suc-
cessful, the ECU
AROTC will function
as an extension of the
same program at N.C.
State University in
Raleigh, which will
supply it with
teaching and logistical
support. If succesfi 1,
the ECU unit become
independent, com-
plete with its own ex-
tensions in other col-
leges in the eastern
part of the state.
"We want to give
students in eastern
North Carolina the
opportunity Bishop
said. "State and
Campbell are the
closest ROTCs, and
that's not close
enough He believes
an established ROTC
is "part of the coming
of age of a
university
In addition to
Bishop, the AROTC
cadre includes Capt.
Heldur Liivak and
Sgt. Terry Boyles.
Liivak is an eight-year
veteran artillery and
intelligence specialist.
Boyles, a Kinston
native whose wife is
an ECU alumna, is a
12-year veteran.
Bishop cited such
opportunites as
technical training and
job security as reasons
why cadets would join
ROTC. "The military
is much more highly
sophisticated and is
attracting more peo-
ple looking for hi-tech
training he said.
Cadets stress that
experience in leader-
ship is the main
reason for joining.
"ROTC brings out
the best in everyone,
and it develops a com-
petetive edge said
cadet company com-
mander Kris Cuello.
"Learning manage-
ment is not nearly as
important as learning
leadership said
cadet Kirk Shelly,
who is also a member
of the National
Guard. "Unlike other
fields, ROTC gives us
immediate leadership
opportunities
Another reason for
joining has to do with
patriotism and a
desire to serve the
country in a useful
way. AH cadets, said
Bishop, listed
patriotism as a reason
for joining. "We're
on a patriotic
incline he said.
"It's now okay to
wave the flag and sing
the national anthem
Cuello, who was
born in the
Dominican Republic,
sees his services as a
way of thankingj
America. "This coun-
try has give me somel
of my most satisfying
years, and I want to
give something!
back
The advent of a l
new program at ECU
is an example of the
resurgence of ROTC
acorss the nation.
Recruitment hasl
doubled since the
Vietnam conflict, and
ROTC is available at
1,373 colleges and 706
high schools.
A Vietnam veteran,
he belives that
Americans have learn-
ed the lessons of the
Vietnam conflict.
Cadet Shelley also
referred to the present
age as the "post-
Vietnam" era.
"Although we
remember Vietnam's
lessons siad Bishop,
"we've put the war
behind us
Bishop noted that
"the ROTC gives the
army a good cross-
sectional representa-
tion of society among
its officers ROTC is
expected to make the
military part of the
mainstream of
American life, he
said, with its officers
being like its civilian
leaders ? participants
in the democratic
societal structure and
adherents to its
values.
Despite the advan-
tages ROTC has for
those students in-
terested in building
skills for life and civil
careers, cadets know
that they may some-
day enter active
military service and
fight to defend their
country. "We send
the cadets into the ar-
my with their eyes
open Bishop said.
"No one is so naive as
to think we'll train
them as officers and
not ask them to some-
day maybe risk their
lives
Cuello echoed these
feelings. "We are in
the business of defen-
ding American prin-
ciples he said, "and
we may have to take
life threatening risks

Warning To Female Students

The people in Swansboro take
fheu mullet and their festival
seriously. Swansboro's major
weekly newspaper, the Tideland
Vhs, caus jtself "The finest
mullet wrapper you can buv "
A story in its Wednesday edi-
n quoted Mullei Festival spon-
sors predicting a crowd of 14,000
at this year's event. Since the
festival itself takes place
throughout the entire town, it's
actually hard to estimate the size
of the crowd

something missing from your life.
Not anything critical, just
something that is not where it

Well, I guess you know the rest:

peared in the paper's eight-page
special pull-out section devoted to
the Mullet Festival.
When we drove to within a cou-
ple of miles of Swansboro, the
traffic started to back up. It felt
just like home. We managed to
find a parking space in what ap-
peared to be someone's backyard,
and I shut the car door on the lit-
tle finger of the women whose
husband had just driven me to the
Mullet festival (Fortunate the
injury was not too bad ? lots of
pain but no broken bones.) I
quickIv got lost in the crowd.
I'm a people watcher, despite
the accusations of some of my
friends that I'm a sexist woman
watcher, and for me the Mullet
Festival was a paradise.
Hundreds of kids of all ages
were everywhere Most busied
themselves throwing small ex-
plosive pellets at each other. You
could buy a box for about a buck.
Because the pellets were quite
harmful, many a concerned
mother would call out for a cease
fire as she strolled by with her lit-
tle ones. Of course, the boys en-
joyed the explosives more than the
girls who were usually the targets
ol their assaults.
Couples ot all ages walked
hand-in-hand stopping every few
paces to see what was for sale.
Men with short-hair abounded.

GT-350: The Legend Of An
AH-American Sports Car
B CORDON IP(X k
y nlrruumvm Mll.x
Not so many years ago owning
a fast car was considered a rite of
passage into manhood. Every guy
in town was tooling down
boulevards and prowling around
burgtr-joints in a hopped-up mus-
cle car of some sort ? or wanted
to be.
But the fast-car craze ran into a
roadblock about 1973. Soaring
gas prices and insurance rates put
an end to America's addiction to
high powered cars By the time I
was old enough to drive, the fun
was over. I felt cheated, forced in-
to a dull future of driving zit-bag
econo boxes with poodle-dog ex-
haust -
Then one day while looking
through the classified ads, I saw a
1966 Shelbs GT-350 for sale. I'd
heard of the car, but had never
seen one. Out of curiosity I drove
down to the sports car dealer who
was brokering the car.
The Shelby shined like a newlv-
cut ruby. It's bright new paint was
like a dazzling red sky that the two
bumper-to-bumper racing stripes
slashed across like giant bolts of
lightning flashing from horizon to
horizon. There was something
about those two wide, white
stripes running parallel over
hood, roof and rear deck that
made my heart race and my palms
sweat. Whoever first called such
markings racing stripes must have
felt the same excitement I did.
lust above the kickpanel from
front to rear wheelwall ran a nar-
row white stripe bordered by two
thinner ones. At the head of these
stripes in white three-inch letters
was "GT-350
The car sat lower than a normal
'f6 Mustang because of its low-
profile 60-series tires and altered
front suspension geometry. The
angular, masculine lines of the
fenders and body contrasted nice-
ly with the arc that began with the
windshield, crested through the
roof and tapered through the rear
glass into the trunk deck. Both
round and square, the overall ef-
fect was that of a giant, red and
white hockey puck. I wondered if
it would scoot like one.
When I looked inside, I was
startled to see the backseat miss-
ing. In its place as a black
fiberglass deck with the spare tire
snugged onto it. A four-point
padded roll bar erupted from the
floor behind the bucket seats and
stretched to the ceiling while its
two back legs slanted into the cor-
ners of the rear deck. 1 slid into
the driver's seat to check out the
cockpit.
A pod-mounted Sun tach stared
at me like some Cyclops' eye from
its angled position atop the center
of the dash. The rest of the
gauges. including the
speedometer, were all by Stewart
Warner. There was no radio.
With no backseat or jam box, this
obviously wasn't a Saturday night
date machine. When I raised the
hood, it was apparent that the
Shelby would be more at home on
the backstretch at Sebring than
tooling around some burger joint.
"She's a beauty isn't she said
the dealer, who was suddenly
standing at my shoulder. "Two
460 Holly fours, Ford dual-point
distributer, Le Mans 289 cam,
GT-40 valves, finned aluminum
racing pan, balanced and
blueprinted. Full race he said
with a sigh. "She'll turn eight
grand and pump out about 400
ponies

mg towards the engine bay.
"Battery's in the trunk for I
ter weight distribution through
the corners he said.
He, his last name was Stone
vited me to go for a test drive
with him driving. Stone was sell-
ing the Shelby on commission
some sap who was going
a nasty divorce, and. as he ex-
plained, he took every opportuni-
ty tc drive the car.
The instant Stone hit the
starter, the engine busted to
and sat there idling at 1500 rpm.
We rumbled up King Street in :
and second gears, the car jerk
low speeds. Whenever Stone pull-
ed away from the stoplight, it was
difficult for him not to chirp the
tires. Driving the car in town
like leading a mad bull with a nose
ring. Finally we came to the steep
entrance ramp to 1-26 Stone ;
ched the accelerator with the car
in first. As we shot up the ramp 1
felt like Eve! Knevel blasting
across the Snake River. Stone
wound the engine to seven grand,
and when he shifted we were do-
ing "0. The rear tires bit into the
pavement and the Shelbv jumped
forward, accelerating through se-
cond. At 95. Stone shifted to
third, backed off the gas and then
shifted to fourth. Our little red
rocket coasted back down to 65.
As we passed cars, heads turn-
ed. We went by a couple of
Citadel cadets in a red Alfa
Romeo spyder. They fell in
behind us pointing and talking
and then pulled along side to stare
some more. Stone downshiftec
second and the Shelby shot for-
ward as though hurled from a
catapult. We weaved through the
six-lane traffic for another mile
ducking around station wagons
and 18 wheelers at better than
100. Then he threw the Shelby on-
to an exit ramp that corkscrewed
down to an underpass. The car
growled through the tightening
spiral, its tail hanging slightly out.
without a trace of body lean.
I suddenly knew that I had to
have the car. I had to hae it We
got down to price dickering back
at the lot Stone started at six
grand. When he finally accepted
that I was about as poor as I was
young, he gave me the bottom
line: $4,000 for the owner plus his
$200 sales commission. I told him
to give me a couple of days to see
what I could dig up and gave him
$100 to hold the car.

I soon found that banks won't
finance a classic car, not even if
it's Hitler's Mercedes One loan

racer from Texas who won Le
Mans in 1959, bought basic-
Mustangs from Ford. He had the
cars shipped to his Venice,

street. His purpose was to build at
least 500 cars a year so he would

speed run down a local four lane.

would allow no more, but at

Three semesters in-

turn to list the Shelby
in the classified ads. I
had driven the piss
out of an Ameican
classic, perhaps the
best of the muscle-car
era. The paint had
dulled and the engine
had lost its edge, but
the Shelby legend had
grown. Now a dentist
wanted to spend his
weekends restoring
the car.
With an empty
bank account and
three dollars in my
wallet, I let a beloved
friend and a battered
old warrior go.
Perhaps it would be
happier as a shiny
relic, a valuable
museum piece.
I stood on my front
porch with 60 one-
hundred dollar bills in
my hand as the dentist
fired the Shelby to
life. Watching him
rumble out the
driveway, I realized I
had never seen
another person drive
the car. It was
beautiful in motion.
As the evening sun
slanted across its
flanks, I watched the
Shelby grow small as
it accelerated into the
distance. The throaty
exhaust sang back for
a moment even after

had disappeared over

Pirates Fight Past Ragin' Cajuns
By CINDY PLEASANTS
ECU Tailback Tony Baker
rushed for two touchdowns and
108 yards, including 86 yards in
the second half, to lead the Pirates
to a 21-18 escape over
Southwestern Louisiana Satur-
day.
"It wasn't pretty, but we'll take
it said ECU head coach Ed
Emory after the game. The
Pirates moved to a 4-1 record,
while the Cajuns suffered their
fourth defeat.
It took a 63-yard ECU drive in
the fourth quarter for the Pirates
to run back the Cajuns before
27,345 fans at Ficklen Stadium ?
ECU's fifth largest crowd ever.
Baker capped the drive with a
one-yard touchdown run with
7:30 remaining.
"We didn't take this game
lightly, but we just didn't play
with as much intensity as we have
in our last several games Baker
said.
East Carolina led 14-3 at
halftime, but three second-half
fumbles resulted in two Cajun
touchdowns.
"Every game we've had to fight
for our lives in the fourth
quarter Emory said. "I don't
know if they brought fumblitis in
here or what.
"I didn't think it would be as
bad as 1980 when we set a recrod
for fumbles in a quarter with five
in the third quarter against this
team. Last time, we had five
fumbles against them. But we go
in the second half and try to beat
that damn record
ECU had a chance to build a
comfortable lead early in the se-
cond half, but the Pirates' Ernest
Byner fumbled on a first-and-goal
situation at the Cajuns' seven-
yard line.
The Cajuns recovered another
ECU fumble that launched a
57-yard drive ending in fullback
Thomas Jackson's 37-yard
touchdown run with 37 seconds
left in the third period. Backup
quarterback Donnie Schexnider
then passed to Jackson in the end-
zone for a two-point conversion.
The Pirates then fumbled at
their 36, setting up a five-yard
touchdown pass from Schexnider
to tight end Zachary Dennis that
gave USL an 18-14 lead.
ECU responded by taking the
ensuing kick-off 63 yards in 13
plays, capped by Baker's one-yard
scoring plunge.
After stopping the Cajun of-
fense and regaining the ball, ECU
gave SW Louisiana one more
chance when Baker fumbled. But
the Cajuns were unable to move
beyond their 44.
Emory, who credited ECU's
defense for last week's 13-6 vic-
tory over Missouri, was not as
complimentary after this game. "I
thought we looked sluggish on
defense Emory said. "We just
didn't tackle
ECU free safety Clint Harris
agreed. "Defensively, this was
our worst game of the year. We
didn't play like we're capable of,
but we stopped them when we had
to. I think this game could be con-
sidered our midseason slump
Emory, on the other hand, said
the Pirates don't have time for
midseason slumps. "We can't
taper off he said. "If we don't
get better, we don't have a
chance. There's just no reason to
have a midseason slump after four
weeks.
"It's the mark of a man to sus-
tain their intensity and motiva-
tion. I don't expect my staff,
players or anybody else to have a
dropoff. If there is a dropoff, it's
my fault
USL's Jackson led the Cajun
offense with 135 yards on 19 car-
ries as the SW Louisiana outgain-
ed ECU 468 yards to 393.
SW Louisiana coach Sam
Robertson said his defense played
well, but ECU's was better.
"We had some opportunities at
the goal line in the first half and
didn't cash in he said. "East
Carolina played tremendous goal-
line defense and I thought that
was a big key
Emory said he had been con-
cerned all week about his team
would play against the Cajuns. "I
hate playing a team that 0-3
because I know they're better than
that he said.
"I'm concerned because we
didn't play with the spring and en-
thusiasm we've had Emory add-
ed. "We just don't have a team
that can dominate the whole
game. But you've got to win those
kind to have a good record
SW Louisiana drove 89 yards
from the opening kickoff before
stalling at the one-yard line and
settling for an 18-yard Oscar
Speer field goal.
ECU stalled at the Cajun 39
and Jeff Bolch punted the ball out
of bounds at the 4.
ECU drove to the 49 in seven
plays and Kevin Ingram slipped
around the right side for a 51-yard
touchdown run.
The Cajuns drove into ECU ter-
ritory once more in the waning
minutes of the first half, but Rally
Caparas intercepted a pass to end

Emory: Intensity Is A Must
Top Rusher Surprised At Early Start
By RANDY MEWS
I Sport. MMo.
When Tony Baker came to
ECU to play football last fall, he
had no idea he would become a
starting tailback during his first
year on the collegiate level.
At 5-10 and 170 pounds, Baker
was one of the smallest players on
the team. Needless to say, he was
intimidated. As he put it, "I
didn't think I'd get to play at all in
my first year
But Baker got an opportunity
that he made the most of. When
Jimmy Walden went down with
an injury, he was tried at the star-
ting spot and won it.
Baker went on to become
ECU's leading rusher in 1982 with
827 yards and a 6.6 average per
carry. He had games of 154 yards
against Richmond, and ended the
year romping for 165 yards at
Temple.
At the end of last season, Baker
was ranked as the fifth best
freshman in the nation for rushing
offense per game and was named
the outstanding offensive
freshman player at ECU.
"I didn't expect anything like
that to happen to me in my first
year Baker said. "I'm just glad
Toay

of ECU'S fastest running hacks, rushed for two
and 108 yards against USL.
I contributed and was able to help
out the team
Baker is helping out this year's
team too, and in Saturday's vic-
tory over Southwestern Lousiana,
he carried the ball 23 times for 109
yards.
Baker ususally splits time with
Walden in the backfield, but when
Walden was sidelined with a frac-
tured hand during the first half,
Baker was able to show his stuff
in front of the fifth largest crowd
in Ficklen stadium history.
"Tony had a great game against
SW Lousiana running back
coach Robert Barrow said. "He
works so hard in practice, I'm
glad he finally got a 100-yard
game this season
Baker was pleased with his per-
formance on Saturday, but knew
the team could have played a lot
better. "We weren't concen-
trating on offense he said, "and
that's what almost cost us the
game
Although the Pirates had a bad
game Saturday, Baker is aware of
the potential this year's team has.
Even with teams such as Florida,
Miami (Fla.) and Southern
Mississippi remaining on their
schedule, Baker believes ECU can
win the rest of their games.
"There's no doubt in my mind
that we can beat Florida and
teams like that he said. "All we
have to do is be ourselves and
eliminate some unnecessary
mistakes
Baker got his start in football at
Andrews High School in High
Point. "I started playing football
in the eighth grade he said,
"but I didn't start taking it
seriously until I was in the
eleventh
It was t. at year Baker joined
his school ti ick team to help him
develop his lootbail skills and to
keep in shape. In just his first year
of track, Baker anchored the mile
and 880 relay teams which placed
second in the state. He also set a
school long jump record at 23J?
and was named the team's MVP.
He went on to rush for over
1,600 yards in his senior year on
the football team, and was chosen
as a member of the North
Carolina Shrine Bowl team. He
was also named an all-state per-
former, and received honorable
mention All-America.
Upon graduating, Baker was
recruited by N.C. State and
See EXPLOSIVE, Page 12
The East Carolina Pirates got
their biggest scare of the season
Saturday, but managed to pull out
a 21-18 win over Southwestern
Louisiana.
"We just felt like Southwestern
Louisiana was a much better team
than the press had rated them
Head Coach Ed Emory said. "We
knew what kind of talent they had
because they had a 7-3-1 record in
1982.
"Their head coach said he
thought they were a two-or-three
touchdown team better this year
than last
Emory said he and the Pirates
knew the game was going to be a
tough one, but they still weren't as
ready as they would have like to
have been. "We didn't play real
good on defense, and anytime you
get 10 penalties and four fumbles,
you're gonna stop yourself. I
don't care how good you are
Although one player described
Saturday's game as a midseason
slump, Emory said the Pirates
have got to have intensity
throughout the season. "You've
only got 11 games a year Emory
said. "I could understand if we
played 25 to 30 games a year. You
can go out and lose everything
you've worked so hard for.
"You've got to be able to
remember August and practices
and all you've got invested in this
game. All at once you can throw it
away in just one afternoon if you
don't play very good
Although the Pirates lacked the
luster they've had all season,
.nory said he thought the team
showed their true character when
they marched right back and
scored after the Cajuns took the
lead, 18-14. "They played some
great football and reached down
and pulled up their straps when
they were in some tough situa-
tions he said.
Cindy Pleasants
A Look Inside
"We've got to fly around the
football everyday. We have to
make things happen. I just don't
believe that baloney about you
can't be up every Saturday. I
think 11 times you can be up
The Pirate defense also showed
strength when they held the Ca-
juns twice in the first half on the
one-yard line. According to
Emory, the Bucs like to defend at
the goalline.
"You have a different kind of
ballgame inside the five-yard
line he said. "They don't have
as much room to finesse you and
run all kinds of stuff at you.
"The field really gets narrow
and really closes in on the offense.
They come at you more, and our
kids love for a football team to
run at them. They're more
physical players, and the game is
more aggressive at the five-yard
line than in the middle of the
field
On offense, ECU quarterback
Kevin Ingram threw several
bombs. "Kevin threw deep on our
bootleg play Emory said. "He
was open all day long. We felt like
they would be open deep in the
middle.
"We trained Kevin to throw
deep last week when we should
have taught him to take what was
there. Offensively, nobody stop-
ped us. We just stopped ourselves
with those four fumbles
Emory would like to see the
Pirates posess the ball longer and
play good pass defense. In the
first half, SW Louisiana had the
ball 21:11 to ECU's 8:49. The Ca-
juns also racked up 99 yards pass-
ing at halftime, while the Pirates
had just 33.
"You're gonna get beat in the
big games if the other team has
the ball more Emory said. "It's
(ball possession) a great concern
to me with the ball games facing
us in the next six weeks.
"The defense has got to make
them turn the ball over. That's
why we beat Missouri. We've got
to make people punt the ball eight
or nine times to win
As far as pass defense, Emory
said the Pirates are bending but
not breaking. "We broke yester-
day (Saturday) for a pass in the
endzone and a two-point play.
"We giving too much cushion
on man-to-man coverage. We're
just not aggressive enough. I
don't know it they're afraid to
make a mistake oi not.

secondary didn't play like they're

Richards Leads
ECU Swimmer
By RANDY MEWS
A ?kim Syotti BdEat
The ECU swim
team geared up for
the fall season Thurs-
day, when the men
and women swimmers
competed against
each other in the an-
nual pentathlon.
Each swimmer
competed in the
100-meter freestyle,
butterfly,
breaststroke and
backstroke, as well as
the 200 individual
medley event.
Senior Kevin
Richards won the
intra-squad meet for
the fourth straight
year with a total of
2,020 points. "Kevin
swam an excellent
meet Head Coach
Rick Kobe said. "This
was the first time in
ECU history that
anyone has won it
four years in a row
Freshman Kevin
Hidalgo placed se-
cond in the meet with
1,927 points, and
Stranton Smith took
third with a total of
1,853.
The pentathlon has
become somewhat of
a tradition Kobe
said. "It's an ex-
cellent way of deter-
mining the best all-
around swimmer on
the team, because
each person has to
swim every event
regardless of what
stroke they specialize
in
Richards, Hidalgo
and Smith are all in-
dividual medley swim-
mers, and Kobe said
they are the ones who
place the highest in
the pentathlon
because they usually
don't have any weak
strokes.
For the women,
Freshman Cacee
Paust ran away with
the meet totaling
3,165 points. She was
followed by Missy
Burt with 2,180, while
Cindy Newman
finished third with
1,904 points.
Kobe was very
pleased with the per-
formance of the
women, and thought
everyone involved in
the meet did an ex-
cellent job. "Our
times are much im-
proved over last
year he said, "and
it seems like
everybody is working
so much harder.

chose ECU because
they ran the

was best satisfied
here.
Baker's illustrious
track career followed
him to ECL as he was
quickly tabbed as one
of the fastest players
on the team. Coach
Barrow cites Baker's
explosive first step as
the primary reason he
landed the starting
job in his freshman
year, but quickly adds
that Baker has many
other talents.
"Tony is such a

According to
Emory, the Owls have
