F ECU CHANCELLOR LEO JENKINS discusses “new approaches” to traditional college ways. Jenkins outlines educational trends Higher education is entering a period of change and challenge complicated by the dual problems of declining enrollments and rising costs of a college educations, says ECU Chancellor Leo W. Jenkins. Addressing the 1973-74 ECU Faculty convocation, Jenkins said educators need to be open to “new approaches” in traditional college ways of doing things and to “considerable reshaping of our curriculum and staff development.” Among other things, he predicted that more students “will move at their own speed, rather than according to a university calendar” and that “commencement will be a thing of the past, probably within a decade.” He called on the faculty to avoid assuming that any change represents progress on the one hand and “that any change is a lowering of our academic standards on the other.” “We are entering a period when we must realize that the old ways of doing things are not foreordained to be the only ways ” Jenkins continued. Institutions of higher learning have peaked in their growth along traditional lines while changes in society continue apace, Jenkins said. “In some respects we will continue to grow.” At East Carolina, “we have an expanding physical plant, we are initiating new programs, and we are pressing forward to increase outside financial support. He reported substantial growth in grants support and an increase in gifts through the alumni association and the ECU Foundation. “Within a short time, we should be able to increase the teacher excellence awards, scholarships, and research projects designed to enhance academic excellence here at East Carolina,” he went on. But he pointed to declining in tuition and other college expenses. “Inflation in general and the rising costs of higher education in particular,” Jenkins noted, “are playing havoc with the ability of the average American family to finance a college education.” ¢ “We must be ever alert to the possibility that some would have us abandon the historie American principle of low tuition at public universities,” Jenkins said. enrollments in the nation and inflation caused increases Jenkins said that the effect of an increase in out of-state student tuition at ECU from $951 in 1970-71 to $1,800 in 1972-73 was a decrease of 37 per cent in out-of-state applicants, from 1,758 in 1970 71 to 1,108 in 1973-74. And he said there will be a shortage of educational loans to those in the middle and low income groups “who need them most.” He called for understanding that “we need programs to serve a different student body- different in level of maturity, motivation and goals.” Jenkins said universities are going to be asked to provide more programs to train people for second careers. Jenkins also pointed to: considering alternatives in admissions patterns to attract more adults and transfers. See “Programs” page four t | h ad oun qin ed FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 2/13 SEPT. 1973 SGA promises are near completion SGA President Bill Bodenhamer announced recently that within the next two weeks 70 per cent of the campaign promises he made last year will be completed Among these promises are an inter-campus bus system, the establishment of ECU's first eo ed dormitory, a copying machine in the Student Union for student use and an SGA-compiled list of off-campus housing available in Greenville. Bodenhamer said the SGA has already purchased one 51-seat Ford bus for on campus transportation Another bus has been ordered and is due to arrive after Jan. 1. The cost of the buses is a total of $18,000. A bus service was available to students last yed Bodenhamer noted, but only intermittently then discontinued. The bus last year cost the SGA $150 a day to rent. “To cut the’ operating cost even more : Bodenhamer continued, “this year we've made arrangements to buy our gas through the state so it will be at a much lower price than before.” “After this year’s bus purchase, Bodenhamer went on, “next year this campus transit system will save the students $40,000 a year over any system for campus trans portation.” Bodenhamer said the SGA has also purchased a new Zerox 2400 copying machine. The copier is now located in the Student Union for student use. It is there on a self supporting basis. Bodenhamer pointed out that the SGA is responsible for the copier and not the Student Union. Distribution of student activity cards will be in the hands of the ECU Cashier's office beginning next year Bodenhamer further revealed. Students will get their activity cards attached to their tuition receipts. In the past issuance of the cards has been the SGA’s job. “This will work out to the students’ advantage next year,” said Bodenhamer. It used to be that if a student registered late, he would have to pay a $2 late fee in order to pick up his activity card. With this system he'll just pick it up just like he normally would if he was registering on time.” Bodenhamer said the SGA has just completed compilation this summer of a list of off-campus housing available to students. The booklet list includes names and addresses of the landlords renting, what type of housing, housing rules and their location. At the present time 5,000 copies of the list are being prepared for distribution to students. Among bills Bodenhamer plans to propose to the SGA legislature are: a bill to either buy or rent 6-10 typewriters for any student to use, a lawyer to be hired by the SGA to give students free legal advice, a beer tavern on campus and to install a telephone line in the student union which students could use to call anywhere in the U.S. Bodenhamer said that “a young lawyer could be hired to give student advice, say 16 hours a month, or four hours a week. This would be free legal advice to the student paid for by the SGA. It would save the student a consultation fee. If the student needs a lawyer other than for advice, he can hire him on his own.” Bodenhamer concluded by saying that, “I want the students to know that this administration is open to the students and their problems this year. We want to establish free and open relations with everyone on campus. My office hours are from 2-6:00 p.m. every day and I welcome students to come up if they have problems, complaints or suggestions con cerning the SGA.” SGA PRESIDENT BILL BODENHAMER Scuba diving OF A non-credit evening course in scuba diving will be given by the ECU Division of Continuing Education Sept. 27 - Oct. 23.

Institutions of higher edueation today are being called upon by students to provide a wider range of options in their curricula. One recent innocation at the University of Iowa designed to meet. this yrowing demand is an interdepartmental major in letters offered by the University’s School of Letters. “The program is open to undergraduates starting in their sophomore year,” explains Alan Nagel, associate professor of English and comparative literature who also is serving as chairman of the major in letters program. “There is a 36 semester hour version of the major which has no foreign language requirement beyond the general University requirement,” Nagel continues. “All literature is read in translation and the student is expected to work in three different literatures. There also is a 30 semester hour version of the major, with the student again working in three different literatures. This version requires a minimium of six semester hours of literature read in a foreign language. “Further study in language is encouraged, and with the new offerings of intensive language courses by several departments, and undergraduate can more quickly learn and begin reading a second foreign language. In both versions, courses should show some historical distribution so the student isn’t concentrated in a single period, such as literature since 1850.” In addition, majors in letters must take 12 semester hours of supplemental courses related to their individual programs. These supplemental courses could be in education, history or linguistics, for example, or could be distributed among “whatever fields are most to the point for a student's own plans and interests. “International studies such as the major in letters require a certain range of interest that wouldn't necessarily be part of an English major’s program,” says Nagel, in explaining the rationale for the supplemental course work. “The student and the adviser together arrange the supplemental courses to make each undergraduate’s program more coherent.” CIASSIPllEDS One Remington electric typewriter Excellent shape, standard /56 2374 or 152 5453 ABORTION BIRTH CONTROL, FREE INFO & REFERRAL. up to 24 weeks General anesthesia Vasectomy, tubal ligation also available Free pregnancy tests Call PCS non-profit 202 298 7995 FOR RENT.

News Briefs WASHINGTON The most. critical problem awaiting Henry Kissinger when he moves over to the State Department is. oil diplomacy. Middle East experts are prepared to warn that the United States can no longer continue its all out support for Israel and expect, the Arab nations to keep up the flow of oil across the Atlantic. Already, the Arab nations are being stirred up to use oil as a political weapon and to retaliate against the United States by cutting down oil Shipments. The campaign, according to our intelligence reports, is gaining favor through- out the Arab world. The State Department experts will point out that the United States is dependent upon Arab oil for the next few years. They will urge Kissinger, therefore, to change U.S. Middle East policy and adopt a more pro-Arab attitude. The United States could bolster its position with the Arabs, they will suggest, by using its influence with Israel to settle the Middle East crisis on terms the Arabs can accept. If the United States doesn't change its middle East Policy, the experts will warn, the Arab nations almost certainly will start shutting off oil. This would leave the United States critically short and would force Washington to take desperate action. The only alternative to diplo- matic action, they will suggest, would be military action. Either the United States must become more pro-Arab, they will say, or must take over the Arab oil fields by military force.

President Nixon's popularity has plunged to 30 per cent, an all-time low. Yet in all the polls, two Republican senators, Charles Percy and Howard Baker, are running ahead of anyone the Democrats can put up. Democratic national chairman Robert Strauss has been working behind the scenes to restore party unity. He is trying to revive the SGA ELECTIONS ELECTIONS FOR: Legislature Class Officers Publications Board Review Hoard Honor Council Drug Board University Board FILING DATES: September 13 0 September 17 9.5 Wright Auditorium 303 political coalition that the late Franklin Roosevelt put together of liberals, blue-collar workers and Southern populists Sut it took a charismatic personality like Roosevelt's to rally voters from a wide ideological spectrum behind the Democratic banner. Some party leaders believe their front runner, Sen. Ted Kennedy, has the magic spark. But the polls show young people and women, who are enthusiastic followers of the senator's two martyred brothers, prefer Charles Percy over Ted Kennedy. Hawaii's Sen. Dan Inouye is causing some excitement among Democratic voters. But perhaps because of his Japanese ancestry, he is mentioned only as a vice presidential prospect. What the Democrats are looking for is another Franklin D. Roosevelt or John F. Kennedy. But there is no one like that in sight FAIR GAMES: The nation's No. 1 sports fan, Richard Nixon, would like to give Russia more competition in athletics. He is chagrined over the way Russia throws its top athletics against America’s amateurs and then makes political capital out of the results. For example, Russia trains and subsidizes its Olympic athletics but still calls them amateurs. President Nixon feels that, rightfully, they should compete against America’s professionals. Instead, Russia's best athletes meet only the amateurs who are really Americas second-string athletes. For 10 days during August, Moscow was host to the World University Games. The United States sent some of its best college athletes. But they found them- selves up against Russia’s Olympic stars. As aresult, Russia won over half of the gold medals. The United States managed to win gold medals only in swimming and basketball. The President has told friends he would like to see some competition between the best athletes from both nations. This would be the only fair way, he said, to determine which country is really best at world sports. For the Kremlin, athletics is an extension of politics and victories are used to proclaim Soviet superiority. The President would like to find a way to make the contests more fair. HEADLINES AND FOOT- NOTES: Every President since Franklin D. Roosevelt has tried to trim the federal bureaucracy. How is Richard Nixon making out? One incident tells the story. At budget time this year, the President announced he was phasing out federal grants and loans for building and modernizing hospitals. Never- theless, the men and women who administer the program have just spent two days planning how to build and modernize more hospitals. etna ennniniiiatl ee 6 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 2/13 SEPT. 1973 SOMLELO ASAE MLE LE 1 WIIDO Dc addadddidddddddddibhdbddadbdddhbashddtd WOU cui auauaiididdddstida ou'miner TWO FOR ONE! | SPECIAL!

The Nixon White House arranged for a Federal office building contract to go to friends of the President’s most effective ally on Capitol Hill, Senate Minority Leader High Scott. The Times reported (February 18): “The building. . .symbolized the ability of a small circle of friends and associates of Senator Scott to win for a real estate developer a Federal contract worth up to $78 million even though the bid was higher than the others and did not...meet legal requirements.” The developer, a major Scott backer, won with a bid of $18 million higher than the low bid.

An independent investigation shows it met none of them.” CONGRESSIONAL WEAK.- NESSES - If the President violates the law by going to war, withholding funds or putting citizens in concentration camps, Congress can’t even talk to him. There is no mechanism. It has no effective way to reach the public in such a crisis, while the President can take time on all TV networks at a moment's notice. It has no way to stop him, except by the tortuously slow process of the courts. We make these recommendations: Congress elect a 5-member Legislative Council, which the President would be required to see once a week and answer its questions. He would have to consult with the Council on major decisions in areas specifically allotted to Congress in the Constitution, as war-making, taxes, appropriations. “THE NATION THAT LOOKED THE OTHER WAY” - This is how a foreign observer, Peter Jenkins of the Guardian, describes America. Forty-three per cent of eligible voters in 1972 failed to case a vote for President. Most Americans accepted the fragmentations bombing, burning and defoliation of Indochina, the cover-up of the Kent State murders, the sterilization of poor black girls in the South. Senator George McGovern, quoted in the Christian Century, says: “It is good news that our political system is demonstrating a capacity to identify and correct its own evil” and that “Congress has been challenged by the Watergate revelations to insist on its rightful check on the executive.” FOUNTAINHEAD invites all readers to express their opinions in the Forum.

The Sloan Foundation’s broad interests are in science and technology, higher education, management and related problems of society. Expanded research and development in the teaching method known as the Keller Plan, or Personalized System of Instructing (PSI) have received a massive boost with the approval of a $340,000 grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation of New York. Under the Personalized System of Instruction, whose development was begun in 1962 by psychologist Fred S. Keller while at Columbus University, the student is given a course guide divided into a series of small units. He has access to references and various training aids, as appropriate. He is not required to attend lectures; he studies where and when he wishes, at his own pace commensurate with his abilities and with other demands on his time. Student proctors keep scheduled hours at study halls where the student can go for study, group work and tutorial assistance. Study units must be taken in sequence. When the student thinks he understands the material in a unit, he takes an examination, and a proctor grades it on the spot, giving immediate results. Each unit test must be passed with 100 per cent. No penalty is given if one falls below 100 per cent, but the student is told to study some more and to take another test. If the student masters all the course units within the semester, he receives a grade of A. UT Austin’s College of Engineering was the first in the nation to apply the PSI method to engineering subjects in the fall of 1969. Since then, it has pioneered further development of the method. Wrestling receives scholarship A$1,500 annual wrestling scholarship has established at ECU by alumnus Michael L. Bunting, vice president of Carolina Gasket and Rubber Co., Ine Under the terms of the scholarship, the annual award will be made to an entering or enrolled ECU student who has been accepted by the varsity wrestling team. The scholar ship will be applicable toward expenses for one year, or three quarters. All recipients will be selected by the ECU Scholarships, Fellowships and Financial Aid Committee from candidates suggested by the coach of the ECU Varsity Wrestling Team with the approval of the Director of Athletics. ECU Chancellor Leo W. Jenkins commented that Bunting is “one of our most loyal and dedicated alumni.” “We are deeply appreciative for this outstanding expression of his interest in the progress of his alma varsity been of Greensboro. already mater,” he added. “PSI holds bright promise for many courses in engineering and science,” says Dr. James BE. Stice, director of the Bureau of Engineering Teaching. “It is not a cure for all educational problems, but in highly structured subjects it has been very successful.” A major difficulty is that designing a PSI course takes considerably more faculty time than teaching a lecture course. Once established, however, PSI faculty time requirements are reduced. Under the PSI development program, extensive records will be kept on all courses. Feed-in from students, proctors and teachers will be used for evaluation of the results and effectiveness of PSI, as measured against control classes in the same subject under conventional teaching methods.

Honeycutt, staff writer for the Greensboro Daily News, interviewed the group prior to the concert. By DARWIN HONEYCUTT America has been together as a group since 1970. They've been friends for longer than that. Their sense of camaraderie is impressive in its sincerity. And the boys seem pleased and yet not infatuated with their success which has come so quickly. Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek and Gerry Beckley appear unimpressed by their phenomenal popularity. There is none of the emotional hysteria one might expect with a successful group so young and so well-known. “Every group puts out a single and they think that will be the one to make a hit,” says Gerry Beckley, “most don’t, but ours just did.” Indeed, their first hit single, “Horse With No Name,” launched the trio to a quick fame. Until that time, America was playing the pubs of England, the country in which they just happened to be living when the group was formed. Evidently the stint of pub dates paid off, for the group now claims a formidable audience of intense fans. “We've had confidence in our songs from the beginning,” says Dewey Bunnell. “Of course, there is material we won't do, but together we work the lyrics and music out till it becomes what we want them to be. The music does not come before the lyrics, they evolve together. On this new album is the first instance of a song which all three authored. This is something new for the group. In the past the boys have individually brought songs to the group to be listened to and worked on by the other two. “Hat Trick,” America’s third album (to be released this month) was recorded before the trio left on the tour which brought them to Greensboro. Dan Peek reported that it will not be a radical departure from their past two albums, but will contain more percussion. Asked if they are satisfied with the quality of their music, the group replied they were. “We are just now getting to the point where we feel our music is a quality product.” Critics have not been as kind to America as have the fans. They are quick to point out the similarity of their sound to that of Neil Young and the trio of Crosby, Stills and Nash. Indeed, what success has come their way has not happened by way of critical acclaim; rather, it has come through the buying power of the record buying public. Addressing himself to the critics, Dan Peek replied, “We're babies of the 60's, and as such we cannot help but be influenced by the creative forces of that decade.” Here, all three intoned their answer to my criticism, but they all said the same thing. America is a product of the 60's. From the beginning, they patterned their music after what they considered to be the best music of the time. The group mentioned some of those influences, among them the Beach Boys. “We record the same locale of California as do the Beach Boys and we were in on the recording session of the “Holland” album which was recorded in Amsterdam.” Perhaps the most striking thing about America is their disarmingly unassuming manner. Somehow they can't find the vanity to show conceit over their suecess. Even though their music has met with acceptance, the group seemed uneasy before the public with an inordinate amount of time wasted between numbers. The boys are still very young (the oldest is 22). If they wish to become better showmen this uneasiness will have to be overcome. And Just maybe America can be the creative force for a new genesis of musicians. At any rate, there's plenty of time to work at it. ] 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 2/13 SEPT. 1973 f State's Wolfpack blasts Pirates By DAVE ENGLERT The East Carolina football team suffered a stunning and humiliating defeat at the jaws of the N.C. State Wolfpack Saturday night by the score of 57-8. It was the season opener for both squads and had to leave the Pirates wondering why State was only ranked seventeenth in the nation. The ball seemed to bounce right for State all night. The Pirates survived Carlester Crumpler’s first fumble, but two plays after his second one the score was 7-0 State ona seven yard run by Stan Fritts. In the second quarter Dave Buckey hit his brother Don for a 46 yard pass play which apparently had Rusty Markland badly fooled. That drive was capped by aten yard touchdown run by Roland Hooks, who displayed flashes of a Johnny Rodger’s style all night. After the insuing kickoff ECU put together its best drive of the half, highlighted by a 50 yard scamper by Crumpler. The march was halted when, on a fourth down play at the State five, quarterback Carl Summerell was given no time to pass. As a result he threw a weak incompletion and State took over on downs. Had this contest been close enough to have a turning point, Crumpler’s second fumble or this failure to score from the State five certainly would qualify. But following that last frustration the Pirates had the Wolfpack deep in their own territory with the score still 13-0. On second down and nine from the State six, their third-string quarterback John Gargano was snowed under in the end zone. Somehow he wriggled out to the half yard line and on the very next play hit little George Gantt for 37 yards to sink the Bucs. Gantt was wide open on the play, having put five yards between himself and the Pirate's Mike Myrick. Before the half was over Summerell was thrown for a safety at the other end of the field to make it 15-0; Charley Young weaved his way through the “Wild Dogs” for a 39 yard touchdown gallop upping the score to 22-0; Bruce Shaw scrambled for a ten yard touchdown play and later hit don Buckey for a 32 yard touchdown pass just before the half ended, making the score 36-0. The once suspect State defense had established itself with all the capabilities of a swarm of bees. Willie Burden accounted for the only score of the third quarter on a one yard touchdown plunge to cap a 61 yard State drive. The defensive prowess of the Pirate's Danny Kepley was evident in the fourth quarter when he intercepted two passes. Immediately after the second one Summerell hit Stan Eure on an 18 yard touchdown play for ECU's lone score of the game. That made it 43-8 with a two-point conversion. State scored twice in the closing minutes of the game, an unfortunate necessity in big-time college football, stretching the final margin to 57-8. The defensive improvement in the Wolfpack was epitomized by one third quarter play. Crumpler took a pitchout from Summerell and headed around left end toward the Pirate bench. You could sense everyone cringe as Crumpler was buried by all eleven members of the State defensive unit, and then perhaps cringe a little more to see the Pirate offensive line just standing in the middle of the field. State’s defensive will take the team as far as it wants to go, for the offense is a good as any in the nation. You will not find two better quarterbacks than Shaw and Dave Buckey on the same team, not a more awesome collection of running backs in the persons of Burden, Fritts, Young, and Hooks. With Don Buckey heading the receivers, the Wolfpack seems to be able to score at will. The line is solid with the likes of Justus Everett, Bill Yoest, and Rick Druschel, all surefire All-ACC candidates. It was this overwhelming depth that crushed the Pirates Saturday night. State scored eight touch- downs in the game and eight different men accounted for them. The 584 total yards they gained was a new Wolfpack mark, as was their staggering total of 30 first downs. There seemed to be more of everything at State: more people (45,500 - a Carter Stadium record), a better band (ECU brought in a guest high school band), and bigger and better football players. The Pirates return to competition Saturday night when they travel to Hattiesburg to meet a tough Southern Mississippi club. Soccer ECU opens its soccer season Friday at Wilmington in a two-day tournament. Anyone interested in joining the Pirate soccer team is urged to report to head coach Monte Little at Minges Field from 3-6 P.M. Monday thru Friday. EAST CAROLINA'S CARLESTER CRUMPLER races past N.C. e defenders in Saturday night’s game. Crumpler's efforts fell short as State waltzed to a 57-8 victory. BY GUY COX Carson looks for big year in cross country By STEPHEN G. THOMPKINS “A great deal of hard, lonely work.” So describes the grueling sport of the cross-country coached by Bill Carson. Cross-country, once a sport mainly used to condition and strengthen a track coaches distance runners, now has emerged as a separate sport altogether. Bill Bowerman, coach of America’s Olympic track team describes cross-country as, “the most primary of all athletic relationships: a man crossing the earth unaided, as it presents itself to him.” Most collegiate cross-country courses are six miles in length, and the team with the least number of points wins. Points are given according to the place each runner finished in the race. East Carolina's team is made up of three upperclassmen and five freshmen this year. Gerald Klas, the captain and only senior on the team, is an experienced runner who has been prone to injury but according to Carson has gained strength over the summer. The number one runner of the team is Ed Rigsby, a junior coming off a fine sophomore year which saw him take All-Conference and All-State honors in cross-country and end the year with a tremendous bronze medal performance in the six mile event at the conference meet. Carson calls Rigsby and Klas, “the best 1-2 runners in ECU history.” Backing these two runners will be Jerry Hillard and _ five freshmen. Hillard finished in the top twenty in both the state and conference meets last year. The freshmen are Scott Miller, Steve Michaels, Neil Bransfield, Raymond Martin and Larry Clark. Commenting on the team Carson says, “All our training and early meets will be preparatory for the state and conference meets. We won't run as a packed team as in other years. Klas and Rigsby will try for the best possible finish they're capable of and we'll pack the other runners.” Asked how the conference race was developing Carson said, “We should finish a strong third, and possibly we can battle Furman for second. Of course, William and Mary should have no trouble repeating as champion. I'd rate them as one of the top eight teams in the country, right up there with Indiana and Tennessee.” Helping Carson coach this year will be Ricky McDonald, a former distance runner at ECU. With daily training schedules including grueling ten and twelve mile runs in sweltering heat twice a day, the cross-country runner represents the essence in athletic achievement. Coaching and watching such athletes are rare experiences. Female swimmers called upon All women interested in competing on the women's swimming team are invited to contact Miss Stallings at Memorial Gymnasium as soon as possible. meinen nattitnein aati ai Aaa aia tta indent tatnatetata tid
