The committee is expected to meet with Dr. Holt and report next Tuesday. Dean Rudolph Alexander, adviser to the Legislature, said that Fidel Castro's sister will speak in Wright Auditorium Thursday, July 31, at 7:30. The public is invited to attend. He also asked that the Summer School Legislature observe the attendance of the concert Tuesday to determine whether or not the Summer School entertainment is worthwhile. POPULAR ENTERTAINMENT Since the popular entertainment committee has to book the groups for the Summer during Spring Quarter they will need your opinion in order to make a decision. In the past it seems that more people from the Greenville area have attended the concerts than the University students themselves. RESOLUTION PASSED Also, the following resolution was passed: WHEREAS: At four hours, seventeen seconds on the afternoon of July 20, 1969 A.D., two American astronauts, Col. Edward Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, became the first men to land on our moon, and; WHEREAS: Their objective was in the enhancement of human knowledge rather than in the destruction of their kind, and WHEREAS: The landing in the Sea of Tranquility represents a beginning of a new era of mankind, and; WHEREAS: The effort that accomplished this feat of great magnitude began in May, 1961, with words of the late President John F. Kennedy, and; WHEREAS: The United States has been the scene of great social upheavals and the scene of too many tragic occurrences that have deprived us of three of our greatest leaders. ace’ Be It Resolved That: It is the hope and reverent prayer of the summer school legislature of the Student Government Association of East Carolina University that the dawning of this new area in the history of man will restore pride and faith in our system of representative government and that a feeling of compromise, faith, and understanding with and of our fellow man will again reign supreme. the east carolinian ‘Let us dare to read, think , speak and write."

Also, she is currently the Summer School Government Association Secretary Student Central business district revitalization seminar planned for Sept. 4 at ECU By VERNON MORTON Downtown and the city, once synonymous with urban dwellers, will be re-examined by a panel of planning, government, architecture, landscaping, and business leaders at a day-long seminar scheduled Thursday, Sept. 4, at East Carolina University. Purpose of the seminar is to provide participants an overview of ‘‘the central business district revitalization approach” as a means of resolving economic difficulties which are compounding the problems of many North Carolina communities. URBAN REBIRTH According to university sponsors, the seminar will be the first in a series of conferences designed to assist the state's cities and towns in rebirth of their downtown areas. Seminar sessions, which will be held in the South Dining Hall on the ECU campus, begin at 8:30 a.m. Wes Hankins, director, Urban and Regional Planning Program, geography department of the university, will preside. Chimes Participants on the program include David R. Godschalk, editor of The Journal of the American Institute of Planners, Department of Urban and Regional Planning, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; Mrs. sally Schauman, landscape archsay t, Lewis Clarke Associates, Raleigh; Don Masterson, chairman, Department of Product Design, N.C. State University at Raleigh; John Sams and W.A. Clark, representatives, Department of Housing and Urban Development, Atlanta, Ga.; and Joe Robinson, vice president, Belk Stores Services, Inc., Charlotte. REGISTRATION Municipal officials and administrators, businessmen, community planning board members and others desiring information on seminar registration should contact the Division of Continuing Education, East Carolina University, P.O. Box 2727, Greenville, North Carolina 27834. Advance registrations are required and they must be received not later than August 18. ring for a period on campus Spring Quarter of last year the Senior Class officers met to decide on a gift that the Senior Class of 1969 would leave to the University. Steve Morrisette, Senior Class President, said that after conferring with Bill Eyerman, who is director of Alumni Affairs, and other University officials it was decided to pursue the idea of purchasing a victory bell. A letter of inquiry was sent to several bell companies; and after reviewing their replies, 1.T. Berdin Company of Cincinnati, Okio, was given the opportunity to install a Carillon Bell System for a 30 day trial period. On July 11, Charles Berdin brought this system to East Carolina University and installed it on the roof of the new Science Building. The reason the chimes were installed at this location was to attempt to achieve maximum listening fidelity. Also, the chimes would be located at a focal point on the academic campus and could be heard on the fringe of the men’s and women’s dorms as well. A JOINT PROJECT The $3509 bell system is a joint project of the Senior Class, the Alumni Association and the Student Government Association. At the present, the chimes strike each half hour and the Alma Mata is played each day at 8 am. and 5 p.m. Appropriate seasonal music can be played; for example, Christmas carols. University sponsoring organizations include the Urban and Regional Planning Program of the Department of Geography, the Regional Development Institute, and the Division of Continuing Education. Special assistance in arranging the conference is being provided by the Neuse River and Mid-East Economic Development Commissions. ECONOMIC PROBLEMS “Many communities in North Carolina are struggling with acute economic problems,” Thomas W. Willis, Director of the ECU Regional Development Institute said in emphasizing the importance of the seminar ‘These communities are experiencing significant losses in retail trade, caused primarily by the deterioration of the central business district in terms of appearance and functional adequacy. “This seminar offers a rare opportunity,”’ Willis concluded, ‘for community leaders interested in the revitalization of their central business areas to find new and promising answers to the problem of restoring their vitality.”” trial For athletic events, we have a victory bell that will be played. When a state of national figure passes away, we have a toll bell that will be played. For future use there is an input for a microphone which can be used for campus announcements. The taped system is composed of two 200-watt amplifiers and six 31-inch speakers. At the present, we have two tape decks and four tape cartridges that are being used. The potential for such system is quite unlimited. Any comments that you have about the system, whether good or bad, may be referred to Mr. Bill Eyerman at 758-6072 in the Alumni Affairs office. CROWNING OF SUMMER School Queen Christie Roberson by SGA Vice-president Craig Souza (left) with escort Jim Teal (right). Ayers named assistant to President Jenkins John S. Ayers Jr. of Lumberton has assumed his duties as assistant to the president at ECU. The creation of this post is a result of the gradual restructuring of the college administration, which also created the General College two years ago. Ayers, 24, is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where he received a BS degree, and he also holds the MBA degree from East Carolina. He has taught business courses at Camp Lejeune, Goldsboro, and Cherry Point. In the spring of 1968, Ayers also taught business at ECU, making him familiar with this campus from. the standpoint of administrator as well as student. In announcing the appointment Dr. Jenkins said, “John Ayers is a competent, well-rounded young man who will be of great value to the university. It is to our advantage to have a young person closely a Pabilie:. Even Chimes have brains! This is the control unit of the chimes. associated with the feel that his presence will give us a closer liaison with our students and enable us to better interpret their needs and goals.’ There are many facets of student life which interest Ayers.

We equipment the growing size of classes here on campus and the pressure many students feel while in school. Besides participating directly in the student life here at ECU, Ayers will also address Beta Clubs and other high school organizations in behalf of East Carolina University.

It would appear that the theme song of those who must contend with dorm hours is still the same...’Time Won't Let Me.” LEWD FEET “Bare’’ has always been a word that one used with caution around housemothers at ECU but now bare feet seems to be the new “‘no-no” phrase. In fact, it doesn’t seem to matter that there is no rule (written or verbal) prohibiting bare feet on campus.All that is necessary is to have six or seven housemothers get together and ‘‘decide’’ what is best for the girls that they ‘‘protect."” Whoever said that time means progress f> got to reckon with the East Carolina e@ 3-HOUR SHIRT SERVICE @ 1-HOUR CLEANING Hour Glass Cleaners DRIVE-IN CURB SERVICE 14th and Charles 8t.

The best that I've witnessed thus far occurred in the Buc several nights ago.

The movie lives up to its billing and the billing lives up to the movie. Goodbye Columbus has got to be the greatest sleeper of the year. It was first called a Yiddish Graduate, but crowds at the box office have proved how truly un-antiSemetic the youth of today are. Aside from a few Yiddish phrases and customs, the movie could be about any guy and any girl, and the troubles with the typical summer romance. The two main characters in this movie are Neil played by Dick Benjamin and Brenda as portrayed by Ali Macgraw, and it is the story of their meeting, summer love and September betrayal. Neil and Brenda are so perfectly cast that one fears that they are not acting as much as they are showing the world a part of your past.

One shudders when it is discovered that Ali Macgraw is a thirty year old fashion model. This reporter can only state that for being thirty, she is in a remarkable state of preservation. Dick Benjamin as Neil is Outstanding as the semi-bumbling lover whose painful summer troubles create true humor in the movie. Some of Benjamin’s facial expressions and physical reactions are perfect works of silent mirth. Producer Stanley Jaffe has kept his movie very close to the novella by Phillip Roth.

From Brenda down to the younger sister, the cast is so well picked that it appears no one is really acting. One of the single greatest moments in the movie comes when Brenda encounters one of her snobby friends who icely asks her what she has been doing all summer. Brenda’s cool and highly unexpected answer so stung you that you have to think about it several times to realize why she really said it. It is also one of the most honnestly funny lines in the entire movie. If there is a weakness in the movie, it would have to be the music. It features a half dozen new offerings by The Association who never quite equal the rest of the movie. However the tunes are not unpleasant and they are not that big a part to the movie.

Scientists have pondered its existence for centuries. And now, we are there. Ina few short years, man has progressed from a crude airplane, with its 12-second flight, to a self-sustaining space vehicle, capable of escaping the earth’s gravity, traveling to the moon and returning in a matter of days. The recent moon shot is a dramatic display of power through cooperation. That man can achieve through cooperation seems to have been forgotten in this day of political coercion. Astronauts Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins are the leaders in that adventure in cooperation. They are probably the first universal heroes in the history of mankind. But their success was the triumph of many - from the factory worker to the research chemist, thousands working toward a common goal. What lies ahead? Hopefully, cooperation among nations. Ironically, the differences which divide men within this nation are not significantly greater than those which separate entire nations from each other. Yet for a brief moment, the alienated and the affluent shared in the splendor of Apollo 11. Together we watched man achieve an ancient dream to reach the moon. Perhaps this event will pave the way toward international cooperation, and lead eventually to the elimination of human suffering. A beginning is more than a dream.

Dave Ittermann Elaine Harbin Consultant ........ ira Baker ee ee ae ecu forum Dear Mr. McDowell, Let’s see if you believe enough in the journalistic code to print this letter. First of all, | would like to admit that | am flaming mad. Your editorial is a disgrace to the field that you profess to know so much about. You found it convenient to use only the positions of the legislature’s discussion that would support your argument. | have three main objections to your editorial. (1) You stated that ‘The East Carolinian’’ was the only group to receive a budget reduction. This is entirely false and you would know it if you listened in legislature meetings. It was expressly stated that several of the budgets requested were less than last year and that one budget had been cut by $4000. (2) You criticized Mr. Gasperini for his lack of concern for ‘‘The East Carolinian.”” He should have no concern for a paper that lost approximately $400 in advertising revenue from the Spring Fashion Issue- —because they didn’t meet the printing deadline. Also, you failed, innocently I’m sure, to mention that, even with the 12.5 cents cut, ‘The East Carolinian’’ is still receiving a 12.5 cents increase over last year. in effect, the increase over last year’s subscription rate is what was cut. (3) You complained that the SGA “continues to remain solvent." This, my friend, is the obligation of the SGA to the students to have more assets than liabilities I'll be looking for my letter in the next issue. If not, there's a ilWeays my Mand y mimeograph Fed up, Brian R. Van Dercook Dear Mr. Van Dercook, Your letter questions the editorial integrity of ‘The East Carolinian’”’ in) such a manner that it calls for an immediate rebutal. 1. Whereas other groups had their reduced either voluntarily or by the consent of the Executive Budget Committee, “The East Carolinian’’ budget was reduced by Mr. Gasperini under the figure approved by the Executive Budget Committee. There is a difference between an operating budget and a budget-request. Also, you failed to note that the $4000 cut from one budget was designated for the purchase of additional equipment to be used fall quarter. This was not a Summer School expense and could be cut. 2. ‘’The East Carolinian’”’ did not lose money on the Spring Fashion Issue. In fact, we made approximately $100 after expenses were deducted. The delay you mentioned was caused by equipment breakdown, not by staff negligence. 3. As for the 12.5 cents increase per student in subscription rate, “The East Carolinian”’ is accepting less than its regular subscription rate ($1.25 per quarter which is equivalent to two summer sessions). By allowing the ‘‘requests’’ tor money Student Government Association to pay 12.5 cents per student less than our subscription, ‘‘The East Carolinian” is reducing profit to a marginal level. 4. “The East Carolinian’’ did not “complain” that the SGA “continues to remain solvent.” We merely stated a fact. 5. As for your implications as to our editorial integrity, they are groundless. Keep those cards and letters coming, Mr. Van Dercook. Robert W. McDowell Editor To the editor, Though | realize that you can’t do much about my current problem, —§ am In an expostulatory mood and_ shall lament upon it in any case | would like to add my name, or number, to the ranks of those very disaffected with that peculiar institution commonly referred to as Joyner Library. It must have, through blinding vision, realized that it some was not, afterall, even second best, because it no longer even tries hard. | am of the lowly species of life called the graduate student. It is upon my back that teachers hurl the dissatisfactions, suspicions, and inadequacies, calling such a move a work load To in some way stagger out from the, at seemingly impossible loads, a library ot times, sorts 1s often necessary. And that is what we library...of sorts When this have...a library, or whatever,...they do still store books there... Anyway, when this library decides to close itself when it does, such as. early Fridays, and Saturdays, and all last Sunday and Monday...! go lunatic out on binges of pre-determined malice. Forgive me, but | blow my lid. I see life passing before me (and my money, | pay tuition) out-of-state The library, if it stayed open, might, if one has a fiendish imagination, be barely adequiate...Why close it so often and press your luck? Emil John Sidroni Dear Editor, Monday, July 7, | wrote a letter to the editor of ‘The East Carolinian.”” A letter appeared in the Forum with my name at the end of it. It was not the letter | write. The printed letter differed from the one | wrote by the addition of one word, the replacement of three, and the omission of another, plus a tense change and a spelling correction. The content was altered significantly. The spelling correction was obviously a demonstration of Mr. McDowell’s love for the Language. The three words may have been replaced because Mr. McDowell had difficulty reading the original letter, which was written rather than typed. As for Mr. McDowell’s other tamperings, there is no other reason for them other than contempt, or, at least, disrespect fer the trivial scribblings of a common student, as Oppose: his own supreme eloquence Thank you, Mr McDowell lll answer for my own mistakes not yours. Meantime you might consider changing the statement of “forum policy” to read “signed articles on this page reflect the opinions of ‘The East Carolinian’ and not necessarily those of the author.’’ d to Ken Finch Dear Mr. Finch, Your letter implies that your previous letter, which was printed in the “ecu forum” in the July 9, 1969 issue of “The East Carolinian,”’ was “‘altered”’ to conform to our editorial bias: however, you fail to list specifically in what way your content was changed “significantly,” nor do you suggest in what way our “‘bias’’ benefited from the alleged change. It is our opinion that your accusations are unfounded. They are not substantiated by specifics other than the fact that corrections in grammar and spelling were made. Indeed, it is the policy of this newspaper——and most other newspapers, for that matter—-—tocorrect misspellings and faulty grammar rather than subject the author to ridicule by the inclusion of {sic ) after each mistake. The “‘‘addition of one word, the replacement of three, and the omission of another, plus a tense change...’’ were undoubtedly a result of the condition of the original handwritten letter which contained numerous corrections and deletions. Any errors in transcription were due to the condition of the manuscript. “The East Carolinian’’ regrets any inconvenience caused the author and suggests that all your future letters to the editor by typed or printed clearly to avoid any misunderstandings Robe-t W.
