RICHARD CICCONE Associated Press Writer CHICAGO (AP) Judge Julius J. Hoffman has sentenced Black Panther leader Bobby G. Seale to four years in prison for contempt of court during the trial of eight men on conspiracy charges. A mistrial was declared in the case of Seale, but the trial of thao c ~ of the other seven men accused of conspiring to cross state lines and disrupt the 1968 Democratic National Convention by inciting riots moved into its seventh week. Judge Hoffman acted Wednesday after a long series of outbursts by Seale which at one point prompted the judge to have the defendant brought in bound and gagged. In San Francisco, Seale’s attorney said he will appeal the black militant’s sentence to “the highest court.” Attorney Charles Garry, convalescing from a_ gall bladder operation, told reporters the remarks leading to the contempt of court citation were made “in desperation.” The conflict between Seale and Judge Hoffman revolved about Seale’s contention that William M. Kunstler, representing other defendants, was his lawyer and that he had the right to defend himself. Judge Hoffman cited 16 specific instances where Seale interrupted proceedings and sentenced him to three months in prison for each incident. He also set Apri! 23 for Seale’s trial on the riot conspiracy charae. Seale, 32, was bound and gagged Oct. 29 after his repeated outbursts. He was carried into the U.S. District Court in that fashion Oct. 30 and 31 but Judge Hoffman, without explanation, rescinded the order Monday. When Seale attempted to question a California sheriff's deputy Wednesday, Judge Hoffman adjourned the trial for three hours and returned with his contempt and mistrial rulings. Seale was the only one of the eight defendants not free on bond. He has been held each night in the Cook County jail on a fugitive warrant from New Have, Conn. where he is charged in the murder of a Panther party member.

In those days, Semroc was little more than the distant dream of a North Carolina State student, Carlton McLawhorn, and his apartment-mate George Corbett During the past year, Semroc’s model rocket company has grown to a ten-man operation with 10,000 square feet of office and fac- tory floor space. Hobby growing The company was incorpo rtated April |, 1968. A few days later, a test advertisement was placed in Popular Science Mag- avine. McLawhorn now consid ers this decision a mistake, for ithout automation, Semroc ould not satisfy the 1,000 re sponses from the advertise ment So Semroc began, not with a large number of satisfied cus- tomers, but with the assurance that model rocketry is a grow ing hobby throughout the na tion The company miet its first sbstacle very early in its deve lopment. McLawhorn wrote to his competitors asking discount prices on parts, with the inten tion of developing Semroc kits from the parts offered by other companies. Not surprisingly, the competition refused to co perate Them McLawhorn decided to leave college to devote his full time and energy to build- ing Semroc into a strong corpo ition.

The first major expansion of the Space Age corporation came in January of 1969, when a small concrete structure beside McLawhorn’s home was enlar- ged to house an inventory of raw materials and supplies. With the help of his father, who decided to give up his own General Repair Shop to devote full time to Semroc, Mcl aw- horn began to develop a pro cess of mass production.

It wasn’t a bad school — its graduates could be hired on the school’s reputation alone — but its name was horrible. The initials had for years been slured into ‘‘Easy Teasy,” which the school was not by any means, and the college suffered from the slur. In addition, it was becoming fashionable to drop the word “teachers’’ from schools’ names. Other schools started doing so, and ECTC began clamoring for the change too. When the change to ECC was granted by the General Assembly in April, 1951, a notice was printed in the school paper, ‘The Teco Echo,” urging that no energy HEALTH & a-cola Bottling Company, fic GREENVILLE’S FIRST STORE FOR AND SMALL APPLIANCES Greenville, N.C neering major, he maintains one of the highest academic av- erages in the department.

Machinery ¢ 2veloped Carlton's father, Odell MclLawhorn, is vice-president in charge of production. He has already developed machinery to turn out nose cones from balsa stock, body tubes and en gines—the three most difficult liked the be spared to eliminate ‘ECTC’ from the English Language.”’ Yet, ‘The Teco Echo” itself was a perpetuation of the name, for it was derived from the very word ‘Teachers College.” The suggestion was immediately made that the paper change its name too. Although a suggestion for a new name for the paper came up before the SGA the following year, no action was taken.

HOMECOMING DURING THE 100th Year -- Brothers of Epsilon Pi Tau fraternity prepare College Feotball’s Centinenial emblem at mid-field in Ficklen Stadium. Saturday afternoon the Pirates meet Davidson there in their annual homecoming game. ‘Davidson and Goliath’ By SONNY LEA Sports Editor In biblical days, there was a young man named David who slew the giant named Goliath. Well in the modern era, David and Goliath have teamed-up-fer- the past-eight weeks in a combination called the Davidson Wildcats and Gordon Siade. Remember too that Goliatia had an army. Well, Slade has quite an army himself but, he is the one who has caused most opponents to shudde;. Slade’s right-hand man in all of his gridiron dirty work is Mike Kelly, a 6-4, 220 pound end, who has been on the receiving end of 52 passes totalling 700 yards and three touchdowns, fourth in receptions and tied for fifth in yardage. But, in all good armies there are good soldiers in numbers and Slade’s army of Wildcats is no different. Another fine receiver is end George Hannen, who has caught 42 passes for 514 yards and seven touchdowns. Fullback Mike Mikolayunas has grabbed 41 aerials for 267 yards and three touchdowns through the first seven games, six of which have been wins. Mikolayunas is ninth in the nation in receptions. Then, there is Slade’s undercover man, sneaky Rick Lyon, a junior, who won the Southern Conference championship in the 220 as a sophomore. Lyon has been on the receiving end of just seven passes but has covered 131 yards. Slade’s final reciever is halfback Ken Hill, who has caught but three passes for 45 yards, t t but one went for at do f + eal , tho ich for th ; y ! bout Bucs must stop pass Freshman cagers may be the best team freshman coaching years ago, Stewart Particularly pleased t board play from his big and the hustle of squad “As soon as the big men and the guards get their games together we will be a rea! strong team,’ Stewart said “This has to be the most exciting freshman team ever at East Carolina.

Two days later they play Roanoke Colleae and meet Atlantic Christian in Minges Coliseum December 6. They finish their homestand on December 10 with what could be their ouahest game of the year with the Gamecocks of South on Carolina. The Bucs have been working just a little over three weeks and head coach Tom Quinn seerns to be pleased with the progress they are making. This season the Pirates have 3 lot of new faces on their roster which includes junior college transfers Mike Henrich, Gary Cross and Joe Harvey vhile sophomores Jim Fairley, Julius Prince, Ron LePors, Greg Crouse and Arnie Ruegg add to the picture. “We have been spending more time with our new faces,’’ the Pirate coach said. “We haven't been stressing the physical side as much as trying to teach the system. We feel that this is improving our depth, so we've spent a lot of time on it.” In the first three weeks of workouts, the Pirates have made better progress than last year’s team which finished second in the conference behind Davidson and held an overall record of 17-11. Physically, Quinn thinks the Pirates are probably in better shape than at this stage last year but admits they need to strengthen themselves more. “It’s just a question of getting our stamina back up.” he said. “We are in good shape but now we are not able to go a full game two days in succession.”’ Right now no. definite starting lineup has been set because the Pirates will run a number of offensive set-ups to help give more depth. “We'll probably use Tom Miller some on the wing in our 1-4 offense,’’ Quinn said. ‘‘We have three players in Miller, (Jim) Kiernan and Henrich ( Mike) who can play the point. Miller and Kiernan have experienced and Henrich is looking good in practice.’’ Quinn also has used Cross, Prince and Crouse on the wing. The Pirate will also rely on their patented ‘‘yo-yo” offense but this season Quinn has devised something new to go with it. The Pirate Coach has added the ‘‘see-saw” offense to compliment the old offense. “In the ‘‘see-saw’’ offense, we will be putting special skills to better advantage,” Quinn said. ‘It will also confuse our opponents in defensing us.” Quinn also said he is teaching two positions inside to help strengthen the depth where the Pirates are weaker. “We are teaching both the post and the wing because we are not too deep in numbers in there,” Quinn said. ‘‘But by playing a couple of positions, we can improve our depth. “For example, we can move (Jim) Modlin outside, and we can go with out on the forward and move LePors __ inside. Modlin has experience on the outside because he_ played there as a sophomore.” Quinn also pointed out that both Jim Gregory and Jim Fairley can play either the wing or the post.

But to quote Milton’s poem, ‘‘-the sheep looked up and were not fed.’’ In fact they received a good stiff dose of the same old swill. For the last month, Spiro has heen touring the South and Mid-West and meeting the labor union faithful when they came to Washington in what seemed to be a calculated attempt to steal the right-wing righteousness of George Wallace. But at the crucial moment the newly constituted Supreme Court yankea the moderate rug out from under Nixon and put Spiro’s to nought. In a world grown too smooth, svelte and slippery for the proletarian mentality, the oversimplifications of Spiro’s speechers are soothing slumber songs. The lower middle class anti-intellectual is convinced that the dissenters from the Vietnam policies of four chief executives are effecte, snobbish, unkempt, treasonous, addicted irrational, and think-pink. Nixon and his advisors have set out to froma great ‘’silent majority’’ even if none exists. It was in this vein that Spiro talked about “nolarizing”’ the country. After all the oratory Is completed and the last witless white dot had perished from the TV tube, it is clear that the three evils are still present: 1. The Saigon Government represents nobody but its own vested bureaucrats; 2. The Coalition of Viet Cong and North Vietnamese is convinced by Presidential statements that the U. S. will ultimately turn over the war to the Saigon Government; and 3. The U.S. has neither the will nor the desire to assimilate South Vietnam as a _ neo-colonial possession. Nixon presented his point unconvincingly and with a great deal of reliance on the same nineteenth century patroitic emotions which sent Britains around the world for a dying imperialism. The Pentagon has usually been wrong in matters of American foreign policy, as in Cuba, Laos, Indonesia and Lebanon. Yet Nixon seems unable to break from the mottos of the early fifties and even jess likely to face the political reality of the seventies which will see a Japan of incredible power and a gaining China. The Republicans have been amazingly impotent in modern TV oriented. political campaigns. The image of the well groomed heart in the gray flannel suit just does not turn on the voters. It is obvious that the minions of the pachyderm will not want their totemic beast stricken down in ‘72. But stricken it is already though not yet unto death struck from within by the hot ait of Spiro and the ill-timed and unkept promises of the president. : Nixon’s job is not an easy one. Dividing the country even Both the character and the policies of Conservatives have been stigmatized and misrepresented by the various media to such an extent that it is extremely difficuit for the concerned student and the interested citizen to consider them _ objectively. Contemporary political and journalistic rehtoric tends to depict a Conservative as an arch-reactionary, irrevocably and insensibiy opposed to any form of social progress, unmindful of the best interests of the people, and blindly intent upon unlimited, unilateral military expansion with the ultimate goal of creating an University Book E xchange Invites you — further through — irrelevant references to ‘our image overseas’ will not heal the breech.

Ore commentary “American Empire.” Nothing could be more inaccurate. That such an impression is often created is due to the tendency of Conservatives to be less vocal than those of other political or ideological persuasions. The fact that Conservatives speak less often, and_ less volubly, than others does not reflect upon the validity of their position; no intelligent person mistakes mere quantity for quality. Generalized ‘‘labels’’ such as Eiberal ’ and “Conservative” are admittediy misleading, particularly in politics. Pundits often group such different individuals as Tom Hayden of the SDS and Senator J. William Fulbright together as ‘‘Liberals,” and place them in opposition to such equally diverse figures as Robert Shelton of the KKK and the late Senator Everett Dirksen, both of whom are categorized as “Conservatives.” The fallacy of such generalizations 1s obvious. A Fulbright and a Dirksen have much more in common than either could have with violence-obsessed extremicts such as Shelton and Hayden.

Approximately one week after moving into and settling down at Buccaneer Courts on Heath Street we were informed that everyone was to be moved into the other two buildings on 10th Street. The buildings on Heath Street were to be totally redecorated. The owners came py, telling us of their wonderful remodeling plans which would be completed at the end of the quarter. That was all they told us. Needless to say it was a pain for us to repack and move but we didn’t complain that much. After all, what could we do.

He was fully aware that he had pulled the wool over our eyes and he implied that we poor girls would just have to forget -—ourrights- andincornveniences in order to keep ‘im in business.

She is denied those freedoms and responsibilities which she rightfully deserves. East Carolina is not a residence hall, but a nursery. Rather than helping her to mature, the regulations here hamper any advance in maturity. It seems that one may assume that since the male student has no curfew, he is considered mature and responsible enough to control his own social life. Is the college woman less mature or responsible than her male counterpart? By all practical standards, a woman at the age of eighteen is considered an adult. She is physically mature and possibly more mature emotionally, than many males at that age. At this time in her life, she should be maturing rapidly. College should be the place where she learns to accept responsibility, if she has not done so. already. How can a young woman mature in college when she !s treated as a high school girl? Some students seem to think that abolishing the __A women’s dormitory at _ curfew would foster rampant immorality among the female students. However, by the time a young woman enters college, she has formulated a standard of conduct for herself. Simply because she has the right to stay out all night does not mean that she is expected or required to do so. It is important, though that she be given the same trust that is given to the giver ro mec male student. If a woman has not matured sufficiently before she enters college to decide for herself when to come in at night, she does not belong in college, but at home under “Mama's wing!”’ The fault lies not in the school itself, but in the indifference shown by the female students on_ this matter. It is evident, as last year’s proposal for an all-night dorm indicated, that student support could remedy the situation. Does the college woman here really believe these restrictions are necessary? Surely she must feel downgraded when forced to accept an inferior position. The time for action is now. It is futileto think that by waiting, things will eventually change. When this issue is brought up by the student government again, let it be known that the college woman wants to be treated as an adult. Kathie McLane Paula M. Brault Dear Editor: | generally enjoy A. W. Olson’s critiques of the movies showing at the local theaters. But, his article on “Last Summer’ was neither enjoyable nor humorous. He completely missed the point Thursday, November 6, 1969, Fountainhead, Page 9 “‘perverted.’’ The sex scene at the end was not merely an extra scene to show the adolescents’ savagery. It was a_ necessarily shocking scene to comptete the movie's message. That message was one of human insensitivity and cowardice. The major episodes in the film are parallels. When Rhoda tells of the way her mother died, we are not cl Lod Vat whan bacianlh shocked. Yet, when basically the same thing happens to Rhoda in the rape scene, we are shocked beyond belief. Both instances are of a group of half-drunk, bored people hurting someone by an_ insensitive, unpremeditat- ed, and cruel act. The episode in which Sandy cruelly kills the sea gull is another paralleling episode supporting the theme of the cruelty and_ insensitivity in men. The same is true of the episode involving the Puerto Rican. Yet Sandy is no different from most of us. We all perform similarly cruel acts. Finally, the picture makes a comparison by contrasting Rhoda with her boyfriend. He was an example of a cowardly person who fears the opinions of others and the loss of much that he allows himself to participate in performing insensitive and cruel acts. Rhoda, however, was a Christ-figure, a symbol of the sensitive person trapped and crushed in an insensitive and cruel society. In short, Mr. movie was a_ beautifully constructed unit.

The man who is President by a vote of a 46% minority of the people wants to win the next election by a solid major ity. To do this he has the help of Michellvali, a Southern Strat igist, who advises him that the best way to do this is to prove to the people that he is against, “long-haired, pot-smoking, hip- pie-degenerates, who under- mine the traditional values of American society (i.e. killing and getting drunk)—and occa- sionaly turn his vice-president's daughter on.” The plot is simple (or simple minded). Our Hero must find a legal way to create a riot be- tween the citizens and the sol- diers that can be blamed on the citizens to justify a persecution of them to the “‘silent Major- ity’’—our Hero has read that a fellow named Nero did much the same thing with a group of radicals called Christains in Rome some years ago). How- oh-how can he do this? “It will be easy,’” says Mich- ellvali, ‘‘all we have to do is say that a few radicals have infil- trated the movement and there are dangers of riots. We can legitimately cancel the permit to parade and when all those impudent snobs show up any- way, we'll bust them ail.” Our Hero agrees instantly.

By BEN CURRENCE Yes, there are those of us who are not content with today’s society. Maybe this malcontentment arose from the hunger we felt or the hunger we saw in the eyes of others, or from experiencing the absence of a deserted father who ieft so that his family would have benefits welfare could provide, but he couldn't. But then, it could have come from watching your own mother cook and scrub and clean for others for a weekly salary less than the weekly cost of her employer's food bill, or it may have come from living on the unlit, sewageless streets in a community where the tax money from the residents went to better the better communities. Thursday, November 6, 1969, Fountainhead, Page 11 Up against the wall... We were told, says Truman Nelson, through our own leaders that we had to match our society's capacity to inflict suffering on us by our capacity to endure it. But we had to meet their guns, clubs, dogs, . bombs, sadistic police, white mobs like packs of mad animals, corrupt judges, hanging judges, with ‘soul’ force. When they bombed our homes, threatened us and spat upon our little children, when they dragged us off the roads and beat us to death with chains, they said we must still love them. You will soon wear us down with your holy capacity to suffer...and when you win our hearts and conscience, when we discover the turning point in the longevity of our will to hate you and degrade you, you Conservative commentary (continued from page 8) permit a rational evaluation of the various policies proposed and positjons taken by those who adhere to this philosophy. No- such definition can be all-inclusive; as with other philosophies, Conservatism is an individual matter. Two men may take different positions on a particular topic, yet both may consider themselves to be Conservatives. This is because Conservatives generally adhere to certain basic beliefs. A Conservative is essentially a pragmatist, recognizing the necessity for the United States to correlate the extent and priority of its policy objectives, both foreign and domestic, with the means avaitabte to—attain —tevettion— those objectives. While advocating a firm foreign policy and progressive domestic policy, a Conservative opposes unplanned, injudicious, and Capricious action in either sphere. The policy objectives May be as grand as the Empire State Building is high, but before one can erect either structure, one must lay the foundation and develop the framework in a careful, precise manner. In politics, as nN architecture, spontaneous and idealistic enthusiasm is No substitute for careful and realistic skill. A Conservative is not reactionary who senselessly °pposes reasonable social Progress; however, a Conservative rejects the use Of violence as a means to effect political or social Change, believing that Constructive, evolutionary Progress by means of the legitimate political process is more equitable, more durable and more effective than le greatest number’’ while enabling its citizens to enjoy the greatest possible freedom. In keeping with this, a Conservative opposes the concept of “minority rule.” In contrast to those who proclaim their self-ordained ‘‘moral superiority’’ as justification for forcing their policies upon a _ supposedly ‘‘incompetent’’ majority, a Conservative believes that the people — not a small and assertedly ‘‘superior’’ segment, but the whole people — are capable of directing the overall conduct of our nation’s present and future affairs. The recognition of these factors underlies the destructive, nihilistic A Conservative believes that the primary function of the Government is to ensure the security of all of the citizens; in orfer to fulfill this function effectively and with justice, it must respond to the will of the majority while simultaneously respecting the rights of all minorities, whatever their nature. The essence of Conservatism is an inherent faith in the people and in our system of government. This faith is not simply dogma; it is based on the demonstrated success of both the people and the nation when compared with other countries. Those who concern themselves with fault-finding often overlook the acknowledged achievements of the United States; no other political or economic order, past or present, has so strikingly achieved the goal of “the greatest good for the philosophy of a modern Conservative. will overcome. And we've heard this time and time again for the past two hundred years and it only seems as if the beatings and bombings and robbings become more and more intense. The poor are still jobless and exploited and the word justice interpreted to mean ‘“‘just us white folks,” is becoming more of a reality. Some of us welcome the signs of rebellion within the ranks of the young. As they have recognized the shortcomings of the philosophies of our society, the procrastinations and _ jive concessions once used to quell discontent will no longer be accepted. Contributuions and leadership from “conservative” blacks are usually accepted. However, these conservative ( a ye By JAMES HORD Editorial Writer President Nixon’s appeal to the “great silent majority’ in his Vietnam address Nov. 3 raises some basic questions. First of all, who composes this “silent majority?” Secondly, why are they so silent? And thirdly, are they really behind him in his effort to achieve peace in Vietnam? In order to answer a few of these questions, | consulted a friend of mine, Sam Soandso, who claimed to be one of the silent Americans who supports his country in everything it does. Here is part of that conservation: “Sam, is it true that you haven't spoken out on a major _issue_in this country in the last 15 years?:: “Yes, that is so.” “That's rather amazing, | said. Do you mean to say you've been satisfied with everything that has happened OlcW A Moe nin blacks are usually the blacks that ‘‘made it’’ —the elite. And somehow they possess an air of superiority—moving away from the slums into the suburbs and not really associating with or having anything in common with ‘“‘the brother on the block.” The new leaders (Rev. Jesse Jackson, Julian Bond, and Eldridge Cleaver) who relate more or less to the poor blacks are admired and _ supported mainly for that...they’re down home and can be talked to and understood. It seems as though any time an individual chooses to challenge the values of a society which is working against him, it instantly suggests to some that he has had a bad childhood and;or he’s a communist. Yes, there are those of us Close in the last 15 years? Haven't you even been a little bit disturbed about some of your country’s policies?” "Yes, of course. In 1960 | thought that flouridation of the water was bad.” “Did you make your views known?” “No. As | recall | had an appointment with the dentist that day .” “What else have you been dissatisfied with?” ‘Well, let’s see. I've always felt that desegregation was evil. Bombing North Vietnam was just. And annihilation of bearded college professors, hippies, and drug users was a desired thing.”’ “My God, Sam, you're a bigot! Now | see why you've remained silent all these years.”” “Oh, that’s not the half of it. Anything that interferes with my golf game, bowling league OF weekend at the mountains has got to go. So far who had bad childhoods. We witnessed many things day after day that others rarely even heard of. Things that aren‘t too good for children to see. It’s been said and proven true that shame is a revolutionary sentiment. Nevertheless, our politics are based on experience. Maybe if we had been brought up in another situation things would have been different—but it didn’t happen that way, baby, and conservative politics has yet to come through for many of us. ‘'That circumstances sometimes justify it...(revolutuion) is not Communist doctrine but an old American belief.” Justice Jackson, 1950. Up my country has been pretty good to me.’ (Gimme another can of Bud!!) “But Sam, don’t you realize what would happen to this country if everybody took that kind of attitude?” “Nothing would happen. We’re the greatest nation on earth. If anybody gets in our way, just blast them away! It’s them communists who are causing all the trouble anyway.” After this last remark, Sam grabs another can of beer and switches on the T.V. to arerun of the Beverly Hillbillies. “Gee, er, you must really be informed on the issues to make such decisions, | said (in jest). Where do you get your information?” “You won't believe this, he said, but a good friend of mine = knows someone high up in government who has all the answers.’ “Who?” “Sprio Agnew.” HAPPEN THE Sth DIMENSION lf LIBERTY \y LIBERTY Liberty Records + ALL WE HAVE ALL 8 track tapes 3TH DIMENSION LP’S tinier and cassettes ..dont you? $1.00 Orf List Price | CANNED HEAT | LIVING THE BLUES THE STH OIMENSIGH STONED SOUL PE PICKIC 7.
