This move allows for needed expansion of the Chemistry Department as well as Biology and Physics. Chemistry will now move into the vacated rooms of the old Science Building. A new general classroom building, that will be nearly twice as large as Austin, is expected to be completed for fall quarter. It will be located between Memorial Gym and the new Music Building with an estimated cost of 2.9 million.

Dormitory expansion entails two new high-rise buildings for both men and womenwhich will accommodate approximately 900 students. Estimated costs will run close to $3 million. The university’s electrical distribution system is being replaced. The improved underground distribution system will serve to provide increased capacity for the expanding campus. On the lighter side, a new soda shop is being built near the Nursing Building. This octagonal structure will be finished in October and will be a needed relief for all students. ECU has requested funds in addition to the $10 million currently being spent on academic improvements from the North Carolina State Legislature. If approved a new building to house the School of Art will be constructed where Old . Austin once stood. University Vice-Presidert and Business Manager, F.D.

However, UNC's transit system operates on a different principle; the student must pay a dime each time he gets on the bus. East Carolina’s transit system will be financed by a two dollar addition to the student activity fee, which was approved by the student body in a referendum spring quarter. The student will pay nothing when he gets on the bus, and he may ride as often as he wishes. The system will cost $39,000 a year, part of which for Colombia The new ROTC curriculum is One of psychological and sociological approach to leadership and Management in a manner complimentary to that of the Business Department.

Beginning the second day of spring quarter and running for fifteen days, the Raleigh City Coach Lines provided two buses for a total of $4,800. This covered costs of maintenance, insurance, fuel, and the drivers. The trial transit system was a huge success, ending on a Thursday after two weeks of clear, sunny weather. Col. Douglas F.

This is more true of women than of men. It is against the rules for a girl to be seen barefoot in the dorms or on campus. There is no such rule for men. This must be because men’s feet are not quite as ugly--and also it is less likely that the sight of a man’s feet will lead a girl into lustful thoughts and therefore place the young man in a_ possibly embarrassing situation... A young lady’s feet are exceptionally sexy and therefore, quite obviously, hideous. SHOES MORE SEXY So this is why it is that although one could prefer that young men discreetly cover their “‘pieds” (ahem), it is even more certain vital that young lower extremities whenever they should chance to be in public. (One of the more “swinging’’ housemothers added that shoes and ‘‘such-like’’ were really and truly more sexy since they left more to the imagination...) RULE REASONABLE From this line of reasoning, it is easy to see the rationale for what was before a rather silly and seemingly trite rule. Girls are not allowed to leave the dorms if their feet are not properly covered for fear that they could thus unthinkingly do irreparable damage to their reputation, and possibly hurt the image of ECU.

Jazz is prospering now, mostly due the healthy state of the jazz festival, which is poping up in cities large and small all across the United States. FRIDAY NIGHT BEST But, to the point, and what | am talking about is the Hampton Jazz Festival. They broke the doors down at Hampton, and really went all 9''t to put on an outstanding show. On_ the program were Duke Ellington, Ray Charles, Herbie Handcock, Dave Brubeck and Gerry Mulligan, Sun Ra, Nina Simone, George Benson, Booker T. and the M.G.’s, Roland Kirk, and the rock group known as Sly and the Family Stone. Also on the program was the elegant Miles Davis and Young-Holt Unlimited. The Friday night concert turned out to be the best of the lot, for reasons I'll later explain. At any rate, George Benson, a young jazz guitarist started the evening off and a fine start it was. Benson is young, talented, and probably the heir to the throne left by Wes Montgomery. Benson sounded a lot like Montgomery, with a little Szabo thrown in, and this is only natural, I’m told, since he much admired the late Montgomery. Benson had a good set, his flute player was excellent, and the concert was off to a aood start. DUKE ELLINGTON Next on the program was a young piano player named Herbie Handcock along with his quartet Handcock. showed excellent finger work and harmony, but was a little too ak garde for my tastes. He did lo a very tough number called “Eye of the Hurricane” and his drummer deserves mention for his ability to pound the drums. Handeock’s drummer was tub thumper from ‘way back and he showed it Next on the program was the always elegant Mr. Duke Ellington Ellington strolled on Stage to the sound of a large ovation, and then proceeded to do his thing, which he has been doing for close to forty years now. The sound was the same old Ellington we know and love, and it is comforting to know that class is always in style. Ellington ran through all his old standards, ‘‘Take the A Train,” “Satin Doll,” and others, and showed us that his sound is truely universal, In keeping with these times, Ellington showed off two classy By DON PIERCE singers, Tony Watkins and Shirley Witherspoon, who did a five-song set that had everyone in the audience hopping.

Holt gave the crowd some thrills with a tremendous drum solo, and Eldee Young proved that all bass players are lead guitarists at heart by picking out ‘‘Elenor Rigby’’ on his cello. Young-Holt went offstage to their own composition, ‘Soulful Strut’ and the stage was set for the appearance of Roland Kirk. Kirk's first song was a happy, jilting, vibrating number, and after some applause from the fans, Kirk yelled into the microphone, “you people who ain't clapping now, will be by the time | finish.” (264 By-Pass) Telephone 766-9991 Join The {ff} Crowd Pizza ion 1 Greenville Blvd. DINE INN or TAKE OUT Call Ahead For Faster Service Roland Kirk has to be seen to be believed.

Kink iis a multi-instrumentalist, but not in the usual sense as that most multi-instrumentalists play their instruments one at a time and Kirk plays them all at once. It is worth mentioning that Roland Kirk is blind. Roland Kirk knows his stuff, and he went into high gear. Kirk blew hard, fast, and melodic, and by his second song had them dancing in the aisles. People crowded the fences separating the stage from the audience and before long everyone in the place was dancing. Kirk never slowed his pace, only sped it up, and when he hit ‘Volunteer Slavery,’ all hell broke loose with many loud screams, shouts, and a moan or two thrown in for harmony. Kirk left the stage to cries of “more, more” and it is safe to assume that they know Roland Kirk in Hampton now. It was, ! believe, the outstanding performance of the evening and of the concert. CROWDED STAGE It was left to the explosive Sly Stone and his family to finish the job that Kirk had started, and the job was left in good hands. After twenty minutes or so, during which Sly had troubles with his organ, Sly and The Family started to pour it on.

Sly went back on stage, did his thing some more, and watched the patrons as they crawled on stage to dance with him. George Wein, festival producer, looked a little worried, so he gave the word to Sly to cool it, and they did, leaving the crowd in a rythym riot and finishing off the first night’s performance in a bang, literally.

Brubeck tried hard to get something cooking but he couldn't, the weather We hard on him, and it was left to Gerry Mulligan to give sore great solos. Their drummer turned in a tremendous solo and bassist Jack Six was his usual slick self on bass LACK OF RESPECT Nina Simone followed Brubeck and she tried to get something started but couldn't as the crowd was too noisy and very disrespectful. Proud, ateogant, and ves, temperamental, Nina Simone poured out her soul to the crowd, and almost got them going on “‘Oh Happy Day,” but It was not to be and she took her soul and went home. A great shame, as Nina Simone is one of the greatest of performers and | do wish the crowd had showed a little respect. SUN RA BOMBS Booker T. and the M.G.'s came after Nina and did a fairly short set of six songs, ending up with “Time is Tight’’ and then leaving. Booker is a very good organist, and he will do more jazz stuff in the future. I’m sure. Last on the two-day program was Sun Ra and his Solar Arkestra. If Sly had them running for the stage, then Sun Ra had them running for the exits, To be blunt, Sun Ra bumbed. He started off with some weird music where there was no melody and everybody did their thing and it just didn’t work. Too bad, as | expected better from Sun Ra.

After years as the ‘All-American’ institution personifying the anti-intellectual current that characterizes American academic endeavor, ‘Joe College’ has quietly vanished from the scene. You remember Joe College. He was the boy that made the Andy Hardy movies believable, archetypal older brother who returned home from one of our “ivy-clad”’ institutions to be out-witted by his elders at every turn. Moral: common sense is more valuable than book-l’arning’”’ any day. That platitude began to outwear its credibility in the fifties when hundreds of intellectually serious students rejected the ‘‘values’’ and cliches of American academic iife for a bohemian existence outside of the universities. The ‘‘beatniks’’ of the fifties were ridiculed and condemned, but never explained. The sixties began with the evolution of the “‘new left’’ from the clubbed and calloused bohemians who had lost their innocence, and sometimes their lives, in the jails of Alabama and Mississippi. The survivors form the hard-core nucleus of today’s new left. These ‘‘New Puritans,’ as one critic aptly designated them, attack America’s social problems with the fervor of abolitionists and the practical politics of a Tammany Democrats. They were never ‘’McCarthy’s children’ They lost their dreams long before Chicago. Drawn, for the most part, from college and university students of the sixties, the leadership of the new left exercises a critical attitude toward domestic problems that is both scientific and libertarian, an attitude passed down from the ‘‘new critics’’ of the thirties. Radicalism in America is largely a_ university phenomena. The campus provides the nucleus of the new left’s leadership--and the source of many of today’s most pressing problems. The involvement of educational institutions in research concerning chemical and biological warfare, counter-insurgency techniques, and industrial development for unitsof the military-industrial complex has been criticized as complicity with imperialism in Southeast Asia and exploitation on the home front. Confrontation between campus militants and administration and trustees has been brought into immediate prominence. Outbreaks of violence on college campuses have been the objects of concern by some--and paranoia by many. People are asking themselves whatever happened to Joe College -that champion of the fun-loving, semi-athletic anti-mentality who managed to rise above his education to make something of himself in the real world. Joe College is dead. It makes no difference whether he was politicized in Chicago or murdered in the jungles of Vietnam. Rumors that he is alive and well within the ranks of the “silent majority,’ those invisible types who define “college’’ as the four years between high school and military service, will never be substantiated. Apathetic students, like “‘good Germans,” leave no mark in the course of history. Joe College is dead, and hopefully buried. His place at the universities has been taken by millions of students who look upon their education with an attitude of seriousness. the east carolinian “Let us dare to read , think , speak and write .”’ E 1 Editor-in-Chief 26...,...............

New York, N.Y. 10017 Election analysis Adams breaks all rules -- and wins! By BOB ROBINSON “What happened! ?”’ That is the reaction of many campus politicians to Robert K. “Mad-dog’’ Adams’ win in last week’s campus election. According to orthodox standards, Adams did not do any of the things he should have done to win He broke just about every campaign taboo there is. He was discounted as a winner by the “old” pros” throughout the week. Only at 4 p.m. on. election day did politically sensitive barometers stop registering Mancini and begin to drift slowly toward Adams. Why did Adams win? Does his victory show any emerging political trends? Probably the main factor ir the Adams victory and the independent sweep is the different characters of the tw presidential candidates, and the different make-up of the summer school electorate. Adams was definitely the more aggressive of the two. His approach to people was much more dynamic than Mancini’s. He also was probably more in tune with the mood of the people. CAMPAIGN STYLE To borrow a word from another columnist, the style of summer school is more casual than regular session. Students feel uncomfortable in ties and long pants, and shoes make their feet hot. Subconsciously they felt that someone wearing this type of get-up was foolish. Also, they are less serious during the summer and the very name “Mad-dog’’ evoked light-hearted images The main variable was style, unorthodox methods for unorthodox times Less important factors also entered in and contributed to the victory One was sympathy. The poor individual pitted against the rich and powerful machine. Tied up somewhere in this factor was a feeling of resentment against the University Party's political monopoly. NEW TRENDS The last factor brings us to the question, are any new political trends emerging? In this writer's opinion--No. The coalition that Adam's put together for his victory does not exist in sufficient strength in regular session to be 4g permanent factor. In the fall when the political parties suggest that the voters “Leave the driving to us,’ the voters will. Also, the people in the party system are pragmatist. They wi examine this campaign cli find their mistakes, and ad prevent any reoccuran them It was a fine campaig would like to congrat “Mad-dog” on a we victory ecu forum Dear Editor: Io want to. take this opportunity to congratulate Bob Adams, Craig Souza, and Nancy Cannady on having been elected to the Student Government executive offices. Hopefully more than the usual interest in the Student Government has been generated as a result of this election. If this is indeed the case, then the ultimate net result will only serve to advance the cause of student government on this campus. | have always had strong personal convictions about the Student Government Association. | deeply believe in it and in all of the positive things it stands for. | feel confident that each of the victorious candidates (Bob, Craig, and Nancy) will do well in. their respective office. | wish each of them the best of luck in their endeavours within the SGA. Sincerely, Len Mancini Dear Students: At this time | would like to thank the many people on this campus that supported me throughout my campaign and elected me to the office of president. Everyone participated fully and everyone deserves an equal share of the credit for my election. The support of an entire student body is extremely necessary for a well-working SGA. | believe now we can see that a united student body can take an active part in student government elections. Thank you again for your vote. Robert K. Adams Dear Students, On Tuesday, June 24 | was elected to SGA Legislature through the support of interested students of ECU. At this time, | wish to express my sincere gratitude not only to those students who supported my candidacy, but to each and every student who felt enough involved in ECU affairs to participate in the election at all. An involved student body is necessary in order for the SGA to function effectively. In addition to thanking all those who voted in the general election, | wish to thank the memhers of the Legislature itself for electing me Speaker of the Legislature. | feel that this is a job second in importance, and in the amount of work involved, only to the Presidency of the SGA. The fact that this is a summer school legislature makes it no different. The functions of this legislature are the same as those of any SGA legislature. Perhaps, in a sense, the present legislature is more important than the regular legislature. This is because the summer school sessions provide a perfect time for experimenting with new forms and structures, and providing innovations for the following year. Hopefully, this legislature will prove that point. In the past, the summer school SGA has a tradition of doing practically nothing. They have stayed with routine administrative work and have neglected policy-making decisions. However, | strongly believe that this legislature must set a precedent for the future by being an exception to this rule. ! would like to see this legislature become actively involved in policy making. And the legislature does not need to stick only to decisions on matters over which they have direct control. It is time for the legislature to expand. Matters which are not directly under SGA control car be acted on through resolu which state the opinion body. The influence of the S( is a powerful force, and t th fa) V¢ legislature is obligated student to use that influence for the benefit of the student And speaking of student there are very few students who understand the structure or the functions of the SGA TI student body put each of here, and they are at least entitled to know what we are doing. Thus, the SGA should work toward a_ closet relationship with the student through improved communications. For the benefit of any interested student who may have fresh ideas on any facit of student government, beginning on Monday, July 7, | will keep office hours from 1-3 p.m. in room 310 Wright Annex. Your ideas may be presented to me for consideration at that time Wayne Eads Speaker, SGA Legislature Dear Students, We wish to express Our sincere appreciation for all the support given to us in the recent SGA election. There are many individuals who merit a special word of thanks for their time and successful efforts spent working on our campaign. To these individuals and all the students of ECU who have shown their confidence in us by electing us to our offices, we are indeed grateful. We shall strive to carry out our duties efficiently with you, the student body, in mind. Thank you, Nancy Cannady Craign Souza “Let us dare (al 44 No. 2
