Boyce and Hart began their musical career as song writers rather than performers. Their first big hit, ‘Come a Little Bit Closer,” was written for Jay and the Americans. It became the number one song in the country six weeks after it was released. They have written songs for Dean Martin, Little Antony, Tommy Sands and Chubby Checker. They wrote the theme song for Dick Clark’s ‘‘Where the Action Is," for NBC's “Days of Our Lives’’ and for ABC's “Swinging Country.”” As their reputation developed, they wrote songs for Paul Revere and the Raiuers, Herman’s Hermits, The Animals, The Ventures and Gary Lewis.

Highlighted by a performance of the NC Symphony Orchestra, the formal event at Minges Coliseum is expected to be attended by approximately 400 persons. Originated by former Governor Terry Sanford, the ball has outgrown its former accomodations at _ the Governor’s Mansion, the University of North Carolina and Southern Pines. Accomodations for the popular ball have previously limited the number of persons attending the gala affair. With ball invitations given by the governor and the first lady, persons will be attending the ball from throughout the state and from Ithaca, N.Y. Dr. Leo Jenkins, co-chairman of the ball with Mrs. Arthur Tripp, will be master of ceremonies for the evening. Governor Bob Scott will appear during the evening’s planned program. Ballroom dancing and a performance from a portion of “The Nutcracker Suite’’ by a ballet group from the NC Schoo! of Performing Arts are also included in the evening's activities. Decorations for the coliseum featuring the theme of a North Carolina spring garden are being made by the campus School of Art. Students have already made over 2,000 gaily-colored flowers and designed a _ three dimensional suspended ceiling for the coliseum. A gourmet buffet will be catered by a professional,known for his service at the Governor's Mansion and other large events. The caterer is harmonizing his menu colur with the decorations for the ball, according to Mrs. Tripp. “The ball is quite elaborate and will be beautiful,” Mrs. Tripp commented. *. series of open houses have been planned for guests as they arrive here late Saturday afternoon. Hosts and Hostesses for the special event are Mr. and Mrs. Ledyard Ross, Mr. and Mrs. James T. Little, Sr., Mr. and Mrs. David Evans Sr., Mr. and Mrs. Jack Minges, Mr. and Mrs. \.J. Edwards, Jr., and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Webb. Mrs. Tripp stated that she felt it was of importance that the ball was moving into the east at one of the “‘state’s newest universities.”’ “l feel that the response which we have received shows that there exists a statewide interest in the ball,’’ she said. African ‘Fest’ considered ‘surprisingly successful’ Drums, music and politics highlight event Drums, music and _ politics were highlights of the African Cultural Festival held Thursday by the African Studies Committee. Features lecturers were Dr. Western La Barre of Duke University who spoke on “Africa and New World Rhythms” and Dr. Ebenezer Akuetteh, a diplomat from Ghana, who spoke on _ the ‘“*Current Political Developments in Ghana.” The Festival was considered “surprisingly successful’! by Dr. Blanche Watrous, professor of anthropology and Chairman of the African Studies Committee, with the greatest interest shown in Dr. La Barre’s lecture and the film on African Drums. According to Dr. Watrous, the Festival was designed to acquaint the student body with the proposed African Studies Minor to be offered here next Fall. The minor will feature courses such as_ Linguistics, Folklore, and African Political Systems as well as a proposed African Area Seminar. The African Studies Committee was established by Dr. John M. Howell, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, after ECU was chosen, along with 14 other shcools in the United States to offer an African Studies Program. Proposed activities of the Committee include plans for the African Studies Minor, the repeat of the film on the music of Ghana, the addition of African Faculty members and a Symposium for next Spring which will feature Lectures by representatives from various countries in Africa.

Here Lloyd presents his views on both the UJC and the present judicial system. East Carolinian: ‘What are your opinions of the University Judicial Council?” David Lloyd: ‘’The idea of the University Judicial Council was brought to me by Dean Mallory about a month before | left office. In my discussions with Dean Mallory and with SGA legistators, the purpose and jurisdiction of the U.J.C. was not, at that time, discussed in the same terms as is the present jurisdiction. In working with the legislators, in that this issue was introduced and acted upon by the Legislature during my administration, |! have found that the feeling of the majority of student officials was for a “Special Council’’ which would expand the already established drug review board to review and determine the fitness of students to remain at ECU after they had been found guilty of a serious state or federal crime, such as drug abuse or other felony. How is the present UJC different from the idea as it was originally presented to you?” Deal The Snoot want to make know how ma away; a lik None of hoard thal we non per sq Customer, lave the greatest of Charg BankAmericard \ o oowhy not Mr. Lioyd: ‘The UJC has original and_ final jurisdiction, subject ot the discretion of the President of the University, on issues dealing with drug abuse and other “overt actions’. As | stated earlier, this was not to be one of a “trial court’, but rather would review the question of whether a student who had been found guilty of drug abuse crimes or a felony was fit to remain a student at ECU. The original idea as an expansion of the old drug board, again, was not one of trial or findings of guilt or innocence of a_ particualr student but rather after a student had been tried and found guilty by the normal student courts and/or city, state, or federal courts would be then to determine his fitness to remain at ECU.” East Carolinian: “In your Opinion, has the newness of the present administration been a factor here?” Lloyd: ‘Yes.

Now, experience of the new administration in dealing with serious student, administration, faculty inter-problems could definitely be one of the main reasons for lack of action of this issue.” East Carolinian: ‘‘With the situation as it is, what recommendations, if any, would you care to offer to the new administration?” Lloyd: ‘‘Let me start by defining the situation as | see it. We have had student unrest dealing particularly with black students over the past two months and as a result of this unrest, four black students were arrested for disrupting University procedures. These students were charged by the City of Greenville and are presently awaiting trial in the Greenville City Courts. Now this new University Judicial Council is trying these students as to their guilt or innocence in this issue in addition to their fitness to remain as students before their actual trial in the city court.

On the other hand there are other students on campus who feel very strongly in favor of the present situation and who would completely ignore the rights of individuals in regards to racial issues and who would jump at the first opportunity to deny the constitutional rights afforded each and every student. As to what the Student Government could and should do, the first step would be to withdraw Student Government support from the University Judicial Council. This could very easily and quite legally be accomplished by withdrawing the appointment of students to this council, and not appointing or reappointing further members until the situation is MERLF NORMAN COSMETIC STUDIO HOME OF THE 3 STEPS TO BEAUTY 216 E. 5th Street studied completely by the SGA Executive and _ Legislative branches. It is regretable that four students are presently invilved in a “‘trial’’ rather than a review of their fitness to remain here as students. By withdrawing student membership, the UJC then becomes inactive until new jurisdiction lines are established and until the real purpose of this board is actually established.

In fact, it is impossible to assign reporters whose sole job is to find out what is going on in the departments. Thus, ‘The East Carolinian’’ would like to urge the departmental chairmen to keep us aware of news events in the respective departments. If possible, we would like to receive priority in the release of departmental news. In the past, “The East Carolinian’’ has often acted merely as a repeating device for campus news after its appearance in the “News and Observer” or in the ‘Daily Reflector.” Correcting this situation is one of our goals. We feel tnat students should receive campus news first through their campus newspapers Please inform our office of any news within the departments. By doing this, we can bridge the communications gap and give adequate coverage to the valuable news that is so often overlooked. “The East Carolinian’”’ would like to apologize for two blurbs that were printed in the last issue. The two sentences in question were originally intended to run in an April Fools issue which was not printed Therefore, apologies go to Dean of Student Affairs James Tucker and to Student Government Association President John Schofield. ee the east carolinian ‘Let us dare to read . think , speak and write Editor-in-Chief Paul F.

If this system serves the students at Buccaneer courts it should go to every apartment and trailer court that houses an ECU student. 4. Most things that benefit Only a portion of the population are paid for by that part which uses it. Example, roads are paid for by gasoline taxes. This is the way such a system should be paid for. 5.

Several factors come into play. First, | contend that instead of asking the legislature for an instant medical school, President Jenkins might ask for adequate library facilities first, then a med school later. Second, ‘‘adequate library facilities’ includes open doors. It is rather frustrating to be run out of the library at 10 p.m., especially during exam wee. After 10 p.m. there is nowhere to go. The Union closes at 10:30 p.m.; the “study hall’’ o the hill is supposed to close at 10:30 p.m. or therabouts; the whole city closes at 11:30 p.m. So we men have nowhere to qo except to our little cells on the hill, cells with walls so thin that we can hear the people next door swallowing their Cokes This brings us back to the library. There are sometimes more staff members than students in the library because the library is sometimes overstaffed. On ‘slow’ nights, such as most Friday nights there seems to be |it eed t have the whole building open there seems to be ed for having one or two librarians at every desk during such) periods A more practical solution to the problem might be have limited services (having the reference room = and two fic eal of librarians at the disposal o students: close the other rooms, cease other services, and send fter 9 other employees home) after y p.m Stated simply, the library can keep longer hours without significantly increased operating budget by closing part of it earlier and leaving the rest open longer.
