By DIANE TAYLOR Staff Writer ECU has requested $1 1/4 million from the state for the acquisition of new land. The proposed areas include the tobacco warehouse on Charles St., near Minges Colliseum and all the land not already owned by ECU, from 7th St. to both sides of 9th St. (east-west) and Cotanche St. through 608 9th St. (north-south). “If we can ever get the money for the Planetarium, we're going to put it on some of that land,” explained C.G. Moore, vice-chancellor for Business Affairs. The area behind Joyner Library, on 9th St. “would be the most logical place for it since those teeching (in the Planetarium) will have their offices in the Science Education Department, based in Flana- gan,” Moore said. He also said, “I’d like to use some of that land to build more parking lots.” However, he went on to say, “there is a committee which chooses the land to be purchased and how it will be used.” Moore said the warehouse would be used to store campus vehicles, maintenance equipment, etc. “But our chances for getting this are, | would say, pretty slim,” he added. “Probably the only way we'll ever get it is to condemn it.” “The problem is, we don’t know how much money the (state) legislature has appropriated for the acquisition of land,” Moore explained. ‘We already know that the legislature has appropriated money to the Board of Governors for the acquisition of land, but we don’t know how much ECU will get.” He said that ECU sends in a request for state funds necessary to buy land, to General Admissions in Chapel Hill. The request specifies the parcels of land ECU wishes to obtain. A division of the Department of General Admissions then contacts the owners of the land and if he is willing to sell, they send a local appraiser to evaluate the possible cost. They then negotiate the sale, if the price is acceptable to the appointed budget. The office then notifies ECU that the land has been acquired, or that it has not. Moore said the Board of sovernors does not publicly announce che amounts of state funds appropriated to the universities for purchase of land, because EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 13/23 OCT. 1973 ok il ted ek to DR.

He estimated it's completion to be “around the end of ’76.” Current construction of new buildings at ECU includes the new student center, an addition to Joyner Library, half of the School of Art and the Regional Development Institute at 1st and Reade Streets.

Moore said that in the budget submitted to the Board of Governors, part of the money requested was for advanced planning money _ for high _ priority projects. The planning money requested was for improvement and renovation of the Wahl-Coates school building, the Summer Theatre and the planetarium. “This indicates to me that if they are requesting planning money for the planetarium, there is a strong indication that the next time they will request the money for the building itself,” Moore said. He said the total cost of the planetarium has been estimated at $880 thousand, $315 thousand of which has to be in gifts and grants to the university for the planetarium. The remaining $565 thousand will be state appropriated. Forty-four thousand dollars is being requested from the Board of Governors for planning such as architectural planning of the planetarium. Moore said there was no way of being sure when the money would be approved until after the legislature meets sometime in January. He said the legislature would probably decide sometime next May or June. Moore speculated that the earliest the university could hope to have the planetarium for use would be in the latter part of 1975. “If the legislature appropriates the money in 1974 the earliest we could start with the building would be in July of 1974. It would take about a year to build, making it ready for use in about July 1975,” he explained. The planetarium will probably be built on the property the university has acquired on Ninth Street which is now being used for parking lots. “I can't say unequivocally where it will be placed but that seems the only logical place to put it,” Moore added. The planetarium will be used for instruction and therefore will be put as close to Flanagan as possible, allowing instructors to have close access to the building. 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 13/23 OCT. 1973 news F4ShlrFl4Shlrl4isHPASHPIASHPFIASE Announcements Anyone wishing to submit articles or announcements to FOUNTAINHEAD should turn in their copy for Tuesday's paper by 12 noon Monday and copy for Thursday's paper by 12 noon Wednesday.

This is the first of a series of interviews designed to express opinion around the campus concerning these occurences and the action that the public and the Congress could take. Persons interviewed in this article are Dr. William F. Troutman, chairman of the political science department, Dr. H.A.I. Sugg, assoc. professor of political science, and Mr. Lawrence E. Hough, asst. professor of political science. The questions were: 1. What was your first reaction to Nixon's action Saturday? 2. What purpose could the President serve by taking such action? 3. What action should the branch take now? 4. What action should the citizenry take? “You couldn't publish my _ initial reaction,” stated Hough. “He (the President) removes a thorn, and one can only conjecture as to what could be on the tapes.” Hough added that his view was toward the negative in that there was legislative something to hide. An expanded judicial investigation on the part of Congress should be conducted theorized Hough. This is the feeling expressed by several Congressmen such as Senator Stevenson of Illinois and Representative Davis of Minnesota. Hough added that Nixon apparently was upset by the refusal of Cox to accept the proposal that was offered the Erin committee, and decided to have him fired. Hough feels the citizenry should be aroused and express their feelings to their congressmen. He concluded by alluding to Machiavelli's two concepts of virtue with Cox, Richardson, and Ruckelshaus representing the citizen and Nixon representing the state. In this, “Nixon has not only put his private interests above those of the citizenry and the state (contrary to Machiavelli’s directions), but has placed himself above the legal basis for our society,” explained Hough. “Shock, surprise and then shock” were Troutman’s reactions. “Nixon had offered compromise with the Ervin committee, and felt that if Mr. Cox had to go, then everyone would excuse him for his action.” Films tayght as literature Stephenson offers film study By DARRELL E. WILLIAMS Assistant News Editor What do you see when you go to the movies? What gives movies their great appeal that attracts millions of viewers yearly? How are movies made? What value do movies have as an art? Answers to these and other questions relating to motion pictures can be provided in a unique film study program offered by Dr. William Stephenson, professor of English at East Carolina University. He explained that the four course program is an introduction to what to look for in films. “Most people don’t know why they like to dislike a film,” he says in his relaxed but acutely fascinating manner, “these courses give students the tools to better evaluate the films they see. They are taught from the viewpoint of the audience.” Stephenson, working quietly at his shaded, lamp lit desk, seems at home in his well organized office, being surrounded by colorful literary work ranging from the 18th century to the most contemporary cultures. “This film study program has been my ‘baby’, my personal development for over three years,” Stephenson observes, smiling with his pride for it from behind his gold-rimmed spectacles. “It has taken long range planning to achieve a program of this sort which emphasizes film as a humanities and as literature.” Stephenson has long been interested in films, dating back to 1934, when he was three years old and living in Bourbon, Indiana. Apparently Nixon didn’t want the Supreme Court to rule on_ this constitutional crisis conjectured Trout- man. He also felt that a politically acceptable settlement would avoid a legal showdown. “Congress would be remiss in their obligations and failing in duty if they did not look into the matter of grounds for impeachment,” Troutman stated. If the individual citizen is concerned that the President is acting beyond his powers, then he should write his congressman. “If one admires integrity and courage, he should write Richardson, Ruckelshaus and Cox showing support for those who seem to exercise these qualities,” he added. “Men of integrity have not found a home under Mr. Nixon’s administration, and this frightens me more than legal problems.” “| was not greatly surprised at Cox’s firing,” stated Sugg. “I was interested concerning Mr. Richardson’s resignation, since in HEW and DOD, he did certain things that placed loyalty above other feelings.” The purpose was to remove what Nixon felt was an insubordinate in the administration who had been told to stop, but failed to do so,” observed Suggs. Suggs doesn’t feel that there is a precipitate action that Congress should take. “The issue of the Watergate tapes tnat seem to be central to the committee and to Judge Sirica’s interests still has not been resolved, so | feel further investigation is warranted.” Suggs feels that although there has been some talk of impeachment to resolve the constitutional crisis, there are two things to be considered. First, the problem is that impeachment procedures would seem to be incapable of resolving the crisis except where the effort succeeds. He noted that if it fails, even by a narrow margin as was the case with Andrew Johnson, the crisis seems to remain. The second point is that it is not clear at this point how strong the movement for impeachment is among the Congress and in the public at large. It will be some time before the congressional leadership can assess the situation in Congress and the public in general. “Overall, a great many of the actions that Nixon seems to have taken tend to aggrevate the situation,” Dr. Sugg observed in closing. “Bourbon was an ironical name for such a_ puritanical town,” mused Stephenson, his features highlighted by his moustache and wavy brown hair, “It didn’t have a movie theatre because films were regarded as ‘the devil’s playground’ and were practically forbidden. But my mother and | didn’t think like many of the others and on Wednesday afternoons we would go to Plymouth, the county seat, and pay ten cents each to see the current films. My love of drama and motion pictures began here with a film starring Gloris Swanson called “Music in the Air’. It was marvelous.” Stephenson pursued his interest in drama and film, receiving a degree in drama from Indiana University. “There were, of course, no film courses offered in universities at that time,” reminisces Stephenson, casually glancing to the antiquated map of London above him, “and | had to settle for 18th century English literature as my area of study, but | constantly attended movies and watched them with growing interest.” The University of California at Berkley kept Stephenson busy for six years as he worked on his English Doctorate. “It was here that | really got involved with looking at films. | used to go down to an old theatre in Berkley several times a week where current art films would be shown. It was called The Cinema Guiild and was run by a woman named Pauline Kael who used to write the programs out for the films shown there. She is now a renowned film critic, studied in serveral of my classes.” See “Stephenson” on page five. yt developed. He hopes to eventually expand the film studies program presently offered. DR. WILLIAM STEPHENSON professor of English at ECU discusses the “unique film study program” which he has 4 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 13/23 OCT. 1973 AP Chief sees image change By MIKE PARSONS Staff Writer William J. Dill, bureau chief of the Charlotte Office of Associated Press (AP), spoke to two journalism classes at ECU Thursday. The image of the AP has changed somewhat from the cinema image of the 40's and 50's Dill explained. With computer technology freeing the staff members to go to the field, AP has become an originator of news stories rather than a collection and distribution agency for its members. “There are really people involved and not just machines,” states Dill. The staff at AP is young and progressive. There is no position for the old “retreads” which people tend to think make up the staff. The oldest member is 62 years old, and the youngest is in his twenties and just out of college. The staff members are on the road much more producing their own stories rather than just editing and transmitting. “The staff is more specialized” stated Dill. Departments of organization involve the normal news departments that cover politics and sports to be specialized areas dealing with aerospace, youth, and religion. There are also departments of writers who specialize in the areas of investigative reporting that produce insight valuable to the public for evaluation of world events. Listening to Dill and his description of computer banks storing and delivering stories to cathode ray tube readers cause memories of Buck Rogers to come to reality. Capabilities of 24 hour photo- graph transmission to any subscribing news Office are now matter of fact. Realization that, in a few years, an editor will be able to call for edited versions complete with photos cropped and shaded to_ specification are unbelievable. Then, when one leams that the items will be processed for production instantaneously, the feelings are of incredibility. Associated Press is a cooperative news service. The newspapers that subscribe to it are the actual owners. Through its services, it enables member newspapers to carry comprehen- sive coverage of events in a world that is otherwisetoo large and complicated for a single paper to cover. The service is headquarted in New York under the operational direction of a 33 year-old executive editor. Mr. Dill, a graduate of Southern Illinois University, is bureau chief of just one of the 37 territories that help to coordinate the coverage of events throughout the United States. Ross: ‘death and dying’ Dr. Elizabeth Kubler Ross, _ inter- national consultant, lecturer and author on the subject of Death and Dying will present a two-day conference in Greenville, Oct. 30 and 31. The Schools of Allied Health and Social Professions, Medicine and Nursing of ECU, and the Pitt County Mental Health Associations are co-sponsoring the conference. On Oct. 30, 8 p.m., at the First Presbyterian Church, Dr. Ross will speak on “Understanding Death and Dying.” On Oct. 31, at 10 am., Allied Health ‘Building, her presentation will be “Exploring Children’s Conception of Death.” Time will be included for questions. Discussion of these questions and audience participation is encouraged. There is no admission fee. On Tuesday at 4 p.m. and Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. Dr. Ross will meet with health professionals and students of co-sponsoring Schools in closed sessions which will be held at the Allied Health Building. A native of Switzerland, Dr. Ross received her medical degree from the University of Zurich in 1957. She came to the United States in 1958 and did her internship at Community Hospital, Glen Cove, Long Island, N.Y. and her residency at Manhattan State Hospital, Research Job outlook is favorable for future ECU graduates The future employment outlook for ECU graduates is favorable, according to ECU Placement Service Director Furney James. While the national economic situation in recent years has meant a_ high unemployment rate among the college- trained, all but a few ECU Placement Service registrants have been able to find jobs. “We registered 1,128 seniors in the class ‘of 1973 and 412 former graduates during tr< past year,” said James. “Most of these found employment; as of September, only 100 were _ still job-hunting.” The ECU Placement Service acts as a liaison between large employers and graduating seniors who seek employment. The Service refers the names and credentials of students to companies who request such information, and schedules periodic interviews on campus between company recruiters and job-seeking students. Since its establishment, the Place- ment Service has arranged for thousands of ECU graduates to have jobs waiting fo them immediately upon graduation. Most of the employers who seek the help ef the campus placement office a. private businesses and __ industries government agencies and = school systems for several states. Some ECU alumni return to campus to avail themselves of the Placement Service when they wish to change jobs or relocate. ECU students who are preparing to teach are finding that teachers are no longer in the great demand of former years, but that teaching jobs are still available in certain fields. “The South does not seem to be oversupplied with teachers, not yet anyway,” said James. “We are. still receiving a number of requests for graduates who can teach mathematics, science, special education, and the elementary grades.” “And with the advent of public kindergarten in North Carolina, there will continue to be increasing demands for teachers in the area of early childhood Other employment opportunities in- clude sales, accounting and industrial technology, he said. “A high percentage of the companies deal with are interested in employing personnel in various aspects of manufacturing. “The production of consumer goods is an operation which always needs well-trained technology graduates.” James noted that the older ¢ aduate has a considerable edge with the average employer. “Generally speaking, the students who are in most demand are older students, in the middle twenties, who have had previous employment experience or who are veterans. Employers seem to prefer the more mature graduate.” Now that the national economy has stabilized somewhat after the President's phase program, more employers are interested in interviewing — potential personnel among ECU’s seniors. Last year 101 business firms and government agencies visited the campus for interviews; this year at least 124 are already expected, an increase of about 25 percent. Scheduled to recruit on campus during October are representatives from W.T. Grant Co., Sears and Roebuck, Corning Glass Works, the North Carolina Extension Services, Ortho Pharmaceu- ticals, Proctor and Gamble, and several large accounting firms. While there are still good employment opportunities for many ECU students, few graduates can pick and choose their locations from several choices. Often acceptance of employment means locating wherever the job happens to be, even if the location is not the preferred one, James explained. Division, New York. Until recently Dr. Ross, psychiatrist, was Medical Director of the Mental Health and Family Services Health Center of South Cook County in Chicago Heights, Illinois. She was also teaching and a consultant at the Lutheran Shcool of Theology in Chicago. At the University of Chicago she has served as professor of Psychiatry, Chief of Consultation and Liaison Section-La Rabida Children’s Hospital and Research Center, Assistant Director of Psychiatric Consultation and Liaison Service, Associate and Acting Chief, Psychiatric In-patient Service. She is a member of the Advisory and Editorial Board, Thantology Foundation, Columbia University, the Academy of Religion and Mental Health, Chicago Chapter, American Psychistric Assoc- iation; American Psychosomatic Society, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. According to Mrs. Joseph N. LeConte, Executive Director, Pitt County Mental Health Association, Dr. Ross said “! am now limiting my professional involvement to being a psychiatrist, lecturer and author.” Her book On Death and Dying, was developed as a result of a university inter-disciplinary seminar on death—-the first of its kind-planned and conducted by Dr. Ross. Faith healers practice ‘no medicine’ (CPS)--Faith healers are attempting to clarify their practice following the death of an 11 year old diabetic who died when his parents allegedly withheld his insulin because they believed he had been cured during a church healing service. Dr. R. Wilkerson, pastor of the 8000 member Melodyland Christian Center in Anaheim, California, said “The thing we don't believe in is abuses, error and fanaticism in the area of Christian healing.” “The first error which the boy’s parents made was attributing their son’s condition to demon possession and withholding insulin because of it,” said Wilkerson. “According to the Bible, Christians cannot be demon possessed but can come under demonic attack.” Wilkerson pointed out it was wrong to tell the child to discontinue taking his medicine. “Discontinuance of the boy’s medicine is a decision that only a medical doctor should make and evangelists who conduct healing ministries have an obligation to give their congregation this instruction,” he said. At Melodyland, people who believe they have been healed by God are told to see their doctor for a medical verification and to have a_ complete physical examination twice a year. Another mistake was the idea that no matter what happened, God would resurrect their son if they persisted in prayer, Dr. Wilkerson said, “There is no scripture in the Bible which promises or commands us to raise the dead.” Ste Continue Soon Stephens where he the fall o | had ECU, Ste chance t on the ur film as professio special c actors th for such | Steph has met film prof American the Unive just com director American “The Two “Once says Ster which gl memories where A process o tour had t | had beer studios in ‘master wasn’t an when | fc studios th the day. 1 enthusiast Studios sc headed be walking th a special studios. | pleasant s designatec in front c¢ ‘Alfred Hit his parkinc for this < whose wo Ar su The Al changing, recently pt ment Assc not-for-pro institution. business concludes emerging a material we experience social re opportuniti nearly limit Accordi Success & for organiz for organiz people.” The rep 2,821 Amer number of | the 50 year ment Assoc traditional r and “For m if a way of psychiatrist, Aental Health 1 Center of ago Heights, hing and a | Shcool of University of professor of sItation and Children’s 7, Assistant ultation and and Acting service. \dvisory and Foundation, \cademy of h, Chicago tric Assoc- atic Society, ion for the N.

Soon after completing his education, Stephenson started teaching at UCLA where he remained until arriving at ECU in the fall of 1970. | had a good reason for coming to ECU, Stephenson recalls. “Here was my chance to develop a film studies program on the university level which would teach film as a humanities as well as a profession. | learned at UCLA through special classes and guest directors and actors that there was a place and a need for such a program in the university.” Stephenson has traveled widely and has met many people involved with the film profession. He is a member of the American and British Film Institutes and the University Film Association. He has just completed an article on the British director Thorold Dickinson and _ the American director George Cukor called “The Two Versions of Gaslight”. “Once | was on a tour in London,” says Stephenson, relating an experience which glowed with warmth of fond memories, “which took us to the studios where Alfred Hitchcock was in the process of making a film at that time. The tour had been terribly boring that day and | had been eagerly awaiting the visit to the Studios in hope that | might see the real ‘master of suspense’. Disappointment wasn't an adequate work for my feelings when | found out after arriving at the Studios that Hitchcock would be away for the day. This news totally dampened my enthusiasm for the trip through the Studios so after a hurried view of them | headed back to the bus.

English 211 is the introductory course and is prerequisite for all the other courses. It is titled ‘The Literature of Films’. The next course if English 316 which is the first part of a two part series covering the history of films. It deals with the first films made through films made in 1940. The follow-up sequence is English 317 which takes up films made in 1940 and traces their history up to the present. The last course is English 322G which deals with special aspects of film. It will change every year, presenting each time a new topic of study relating to films. Its present topic is ‘Alfred Hitchcock’ whose works and ideas as a director will be discussed throughout the quarter. Step- henson hopes to deal with such topics as gangster movies, screen comedies, and documentaries in future 322G series. All of these courses involve in-depth contact with films, spending at least two hours weekly viewing different films and at least two hours weekly discussing and analyzing them. Stephenson feels that the student of the cinema should look closely at films for their art value and for their insight into modern culture. “The film is unique as an art,” says Stephenson, reflecting on what is so much a part of his professional life. “It was born almost entirely in the 20th Century, in an age of technology. It depends entirely upon the camera and pieces of celluloid--both manufactured by man. We should ask ourselves what the implications of this exclusively 20th Century art are. What does the history of film tell us about ourselves? What effects do films have on us as part of the popular culture? --A study of films and their history might provide the answer. idea of success changes The American idea of success is changing, according to a 52-page report recently published by American Manage- ment Associations, the world’s largest not-for-profit management education institution. The report, by 29 year old business writer, Dale Tarnowieski, concludes that “the success idea that is emerging as values shift may exalt above material well-being the richness of human experience and the rewards inherent in a social reality in which genuine opportunities for self-expression are nearly limitless.” According to the report, The Changing Success Ethic, “...people have worked for organizations for too long; it’s time for organizations to go to work for the people.” The report is based on a survey of 2,821 American businessmen--the largest number of responses to a major survey in the 50 year history of American Manage- ment Associations. The report notes that traditional notions of success are waning and “For more and more people, success if a way of life and not just a goal.” Highlights of the report which may prove of particular interest to educators include: -Nearly three out of every four businessmen surveyed agreed that youth's disenchantment is greatly overblown by educators and others. -Respondents with no more than a high school education consistently reported the highest levels of personal and professional satisfaction. -The higher the respondents level of education, the more likely he was to point to educational background and training as an important factor in the determination of personal goals and aspirations. ..and to attribute the disenchantment of youth to “an informed intellectual rejection of traditional values by a better educated generation of young people.” -Respondents holding advanced de- grees were more inclined than those holding undergraduate degrees to believe that they were “frequently or occasional- ly” expected to compromise personal principles to conform to organizational standards or to those standards See “American success” on page Oi «.

The new rule affected six families living in married student dormitories as part of an experimental system which offered campus living at rentals $30 to $50 lower per month than those in the surrounding area. The ban on children for safety reasons discriminates against families by forcing them to live in higher rent districts, according to student charges. Stony Brook dormitories were not built with the ‘special safety needs of children” in mind, said the University’s acting vice-president of student affairs. In early August the University notified the student parents of the regulation and told them to move. A series of unsuccessful appeals and negotiations with the University officials followed the original eviction notices. Last week the couples were forced to comply with safety policy. Some students sent their children to live with relatives and others moved off campus into more expensive apartment housing. Stony Brook began a crackdown on safety regulations enforcement when a. man was killed after wandering into a campus construction site several months ago. A ban on children in one married student complex had been included in 1972 housing contracts but it had not been enforced until last August. BURNED OUT?

The yearbook distributed two days before the BAS rally. A preliminary meeting of BAS with yearbook and college officials failed to prevent the indicent. According to Lynn Moosman, Editor of the 1973 Saxigena, a BAS organization photo was scheduled with a professional photographer, but the group failed to show up. The appointment was resche- duled with a student photographer, who subsequently lost the negatives. The negatives were discovered to be missing so close to the printing deadline that no new photos could be taken. As for the Black Arts Week pictures, Moosman maintains they never reached the Saxigena office. Kevin Taylor, BAS chairman, called it “a deliberate oversight” on the part of the Saxigena staff. When contacted by CPS, Don DiSpirito, advisor to the yearbook and public relations director for Slippery Rock, said it was, “just a mechanical problem. The day after the Saxigena burning, BAS presented a list of demands including an increase in black related courses, and hiring of blacks to certain college offices to the Slippery Rock administration.

We are against the cut, which would shear off slightly under one-quarter of Fountainhead’s entire budget, leaving us with three alternatives: reduced quality in a _ twice-weekly paper, production of a weekly paper rather than twice-weekly...or simply running this newspaper at its present level and frequency until we went broke, perhaps sometime in March. However, rather than bursting on the scene with a wild editorial, Fountainhead demands time to think, to formulate decisions and to consult both Mr. Bodenhamer and the remnants of our Publications Board. Readers are perhaps not accustomed to hearing this sort of thing from a newspaper which once had a reputation for violent accusation and immediate retraction But this is a new Fountainhead, as many of our readers have informed us via much-appreciated commendations. Let us think on the matter...and if our results fit, that caustic editorial may be on the way. FOREIGN LANGUAGE As for non-SGA_ business: we were disturbed to receive notice of the proposal to eliminate foreign language requirements for incoming freshmen. The Forum letter supporting the pro-language stand states this case quite eloquently. We can recall a former editor's statement that foreign languages were inessential, but must disagree. The belief is widespread that an undergraduate college degree today is the equivalent of a high school graduation certificate years ago. Rather than enhancing the image of a university education, ECU is proposing a massive downgrade in eliminating the language No, WY FRIENDs, (4% THE TRUTH WILL NOT BE “3 J KNOWN BY EXAMINING THE G4 j~ FACTS.

Exposure to the “foreign” is one of the simple necessities of a decent education. POOR ARGUMENT The fact that a high school student may not be particularly fond of German, or French, or Spanish, is a poor argument; few people are fond of geography, history, or math, but their value to a human being in the contemporary world can hardly be disputed. Others may state that students should be given a choice as to what is beneficial to them - whether a foreign language will have any bearing on their careers. To this, we answer that a three-year old child is also capable of making a choice - but that whether such a choice is a good one without guidance is disputable. SURVEY SCENE Perhaps the promoters of a permissive, less taxing educational format and those who wish to herd students in droves to ECU should step back and survey the scene more objectively. In time, the lack of a language requirement for those entering could lead to other convenient requirement omissions, lead- ing East Carolina back to the days of its ECTC image. And, most pertinently, the lack of a language requirement and the inevitable list of succeeding requirement lapses will enforce the belief of many that college is simply a glorified high school, that any true education can be found only by way of travel or non-academic work. ..and that attending ECU is really not worth the cost. GREATLY SADDENED We will be greatly saddened should the foreign language entrance requirement be dropped. It will represent, not only a lowering of standards, but a gap in the dignity of an education and one more success in removing things academic from the world of academia. IT'S THE AMERICAN WAY. SACS A ‘1. by Agnew people to lay groundwork for an - f ‘ e), ‘ Pa, A / te Goldwater views Agnew By SENATOR BARRY GOLDWATER Today's Washington, with its actual and suspected political intrigues, might easily put history's Machiavelli to shame. The process of achieving and manipulating political power in the strongest capital in the world is rough at the best of times. But in the atmosphere created by the Watergate scandal and charges of criminal misconduct against former Vice President Agnew, it is downright unbelievable. For example, the city boasts a large group of citizens who believe absolutely that the entire Watergate affair was planned and executed by Democrats seeking to discredit the Nixon Administration. The whole subject of possible “double agentry’ has been explored in the best James Bond fashion. And what appears to be a state of open combat between some of the principals and agencies involved in the Watergate and Agnew charges has confused and further complicated an already complicated situation. On every hand there are political paradoxes which have had no precedents in our 200 years as a nation. And when you have a condition where the Vice President has resigned and accepted a sentence for income tax evasion, and demands are heard for the impeachment of the President himself, you have a situation that would delight, if not completely overcome, the heart of that devious old rascal and expert in the art of unscrupulous political conduct, Niccolo Machiavelli. But even in this wildly unusual situation, the most ridiculous argument | can find is the one that holds that the charges against former Vice President Agnew were actually “leaked” to the news media by his own attorneys. The idea is preposterous on its face, but it did at one stage receive currency in Washington, largely because it seemed to be the only answer Justice Department officials were able to muster in reply to charges that the government itself leaked the case. When you try to give this argument political credence, it boggles the mind. To begin with, you would have to accept as fact the idea that the Vice President, or men representing him, speeded up the process of destroying Mr. Agnew’s political future by drawing on immediate and serious questions of his ~honesty and integrity. And, eventually, “you would have to accept the fact that the ,Vice President's own men _ were responsible for publicly degrading the second highest office in the land, and subjecting Mr. Agnew, his family and friends to an almost unbearable type of personal agony and distress. The idea that the Vice President’s attorneys did the “leaking” was offered by at least one high official in the Justice Department as a clever, roundabout move appeal, should the Vice President be indicted and convicted. As one Adminis- .tration official posed the idea, “Who X{stands to gain the most from / unauthorized leaks of criminal charges fbeing considered against an official?” Then he went on to suggest that the prosecution stands to lose in the event the legal process is poisoned by prejudical publicity. One of the stranger facets of this Machiavellian suggestion is that it persisted even after denials by Mr. Agnew’s lawyers were followed by direct action to prove their point. Thus, in the midst of all the conjecturing about a possible “in family” leak by the Agnew camp, the people handling the legal work for the Vice President sought and obtained from a federal court the right to subpoena and question members of the news media who had published charges against the Vice President on the basis of information from unnamed sources. It strikes me that if the Agnew attorneys were responsible, either directly or indirectly, for any of the news leaks about their client, they would have been rather foolish to haul the newsmen they tipped off into court and demand that they reveal the sources of their information. The wheels of justice grind slowly. And while they grind in the Watergate and the Agnew cases, the perpetrators of bizarre and weird theories of political maneuvering are having a field day. In some respects, it is unfortunate that the case of Spiro Agnew was not given a full congressional airing so that all angles of this unprecedented situation could be seen by the public. With every passing day, | feel more strongly that the American people should be given a good hard look into the legal machinery that was used against the second highest elected official in the country. It is time the public was told in detail about the workings of special legal techniques, such as the kind the Justice Department used to bring a grand jury case built on promises of immunity for the former Vice President’s accusers. The people have a right to know how dangerous and lethal the immunity laws could be in the hands of arrogant, ambitious and unprincipled government prosecutors. Although | am not accusing anyone in the government of taking unfair advantage of the special legal devices, | am saying that the whole question of granting immunity to one person for the purpose of nailing someone else should be better understood. In some respects, this whole picture-when applied to prominent citizens--is downright frightening. Indeed a scenario could be written to show precisely how government prosecutors can make use of the immunity laws to bring about the indictment of what former Vice President Agnew has described as a “big trophy.” On Thursday, investigative columnist Jack Anderson writes of Nixon’s therapist and continued fighting in the Vietnam countryside.

SGA has been received well and gives me clarification on questions which were pretty much unanswered except for the rumors, half-truths, and total ignorance which Mr. Bodenhamer and | despise so much. In view of this, | offer congratulations to the cabinet for their excellent start, although more questionnaires like those of Bob Lucas would be appreciated and could bring more involvement of the student body into university affairs. | offer a suggestion to Brooks Bear, since she has Internal Affairs, to publish a questionnaire concerning the student body's feeling toward publications to find the students idea of what should be expected of each particular one. Also, since we are doomed to have a second bus, the secretary of transport- ation, Walter Mann, should do the same and use his questionnaire to determine feelings towards bus ‘,outes. | mean really, Walter, a bureaucracy is fine as long as it is first efficient and second it attempts to learn the constituents’ desires at the least possible expense to them. So as not to lose the old touch, Debbie Wright in her letter to the Fountainhead of Oct. 12 should consider carefully her statement of what has been earned. A person elected in a minority vote has not particularly earned anything at all. Furthermore, if that election result produces a petition for a recall carrying more valid signatures than the so-called mandate which the “victor’ received, the right is less earned. And then if the petition is ruled illegal or void because of one word not being appropriately descriptive of the position then held, there is NO right whatsoever. Instead, the results of that fiasco becomes the albatross which hangs about that person’s neck. If one can be jealous of that situation, he is surely in worse shape than the fool who rushes to his idols support without the paddle to return dowg the creek with. However, the identical situation exists for the apathetic critic who takes no action until the event which he feared most has really occurred at the authorship of persons who rely on apathy to block the opposition through its non-partici- pation. Confusing as that may seem, it can be rephrased in the words of Nixon when he stated he felt thankful to the silent majority for their silent support. If all people who try to emulate Nixon would remember that the “silent majority” was first referenced in the Greek Classics as a euphemism for the dead, perhaps we could attempt to produce a viable, representative government wherever we are. Thank you. Michael le Braillard Baseball et al To Fountainhead: Recently perhaps due to some change in the moon’s phase, a large percentage of the baseball team, kenneled in Belk Hall, has undergone a radical change. Not content with wearing jocks over their heads, these poor souls have turned to howling at the moon. Now | am all for them relieving their premeval urges on trees and automobile tires, but to disturb the blissful sleep of scholars with mournful howls is simply asking too much. Perhaps, the baseball coach could change the team’s feeding and watering time so that all physiological functions can be handled during the day, and then too, a simple obedience lesson might produce more control over the team’s urge to howl. Of course, the whole problem could probably be solved by simply procuring one bitch in heat to serve as team mascot. The Athletic Department, so quick to send out memos on the academic standing of its scholars, surely can find a dollar or two in its silk purse. |, a poor and obscure jester, will even contribute two cents to this worthy cause (if King Billie doesn’t withhold my salary). Yours humbly, M.D. Hickson, Jr. Language issue To Fountainhead: In an attempt to increase the student enrollment at East Carolina University, the Admissions Committee has proposed the dropping of the foreign language as an entrance requirement. What this means, in effect, is a lowering of the very standards that our university officials are so adamant in achieving. But more importantly, this proposal if passed by the Faculty Senate, would mean a reduction in the whole purpose and challenge of the educational system. It is this increasingly softened attitude toward education that | am most concerned with. It seems that East Carolina is concerned more with the quantity rather than the quality of the student body. With the dropping of this important and necessary requirement, any high school graduate will be able to enter East Carolina, stay here for 4 years, graduate, but he will have accomplished nothing. This applies not only to the foreign language but to the other humanities as well. If the foreign language or any other requirement is dropped, what incentive does the college-bound student have to learn all he can about life and himself? Take away these requirements and you take away the challenge of education. We are concerned so much about Student population at East Carolina. Let’s stop worrying about the number of students and start worrying about the quality of students. Does East Carolina want to produce computerized men and women with just a mediocre education or would it rather educate its students to become the finest human beings possible? Let us now consider the advantages in learning a foreign language. First of all, the world is obviously becoming smaller everyday. We in America need to know all we can about the other nations of the world in order to appreciate the world community. What better way to begin this understanding than through a foreign language. The barriers of language exist not only between America and other countries, but even among our own people. How do you communicate with the 16 million Spanish-speaking persons living in the United States, if you have no knowledge of their Spanish language? Secondly, the knowledge of a foreign language greatly enhances the under- standing of the English language. The study of a foreign language, | think, increases one’s ability to think more clearly and precisely. Through the study of a foreign language, we can leam so much not only about the other cultures and societies of the world, but we come to a greater understanding of our own culture as well. More evidence Editor's Note: Following is the conciu- sion of an article by Tristram Coffin, beginning in the Oct. 18 FOUNTAINHEAD which purported to show evidence that President John F. Kennedy had been the victim of an assassination conspiracy. NEW EVIDENCE-(2) New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison is said to have a copy of an FBI report, quoting Oswald, and warning of the assassination of President Kennedy. This did not appear in the Warren Commission reports. Professor Peter Dale Scott of the University of California claims to have evidence of a massive official “cover-up” ‘of President (3) A Secret Service man present at the scene of the assassination says privately he is sure shots were fired from the knoll. He was not questioned by the Warren Commission, and has_ not volunteered his information publicly for fear of retaliation. (4) The French paper, L’Aurore (October 2, 1972) claims a French soldier of fortune was hired to kill President Kennedy May 31, 1961 during his visit to Paris. The contact with the hired gunman was made through a CIA man in Algiers. _ (6). The Washington Star-News reports (November 6, 1972) that four detectives hired by Aristotle Onassis conducted a private investigation and presumably found “the names of the ‘real’ murderers Kennedy...The report is locked away in Onassis’ private safe at (6) Donald Freed, co-author of Executive Action, a novel of the assassination, told the Los Angeles Star, “The professionals in the Watergate. . .are tied to the CIA, Cuban politics, the Miami area, and assassination.” He states there was a plot “to assassinate Castro before or coincident with the invasion,” and this was called off bv President Kennedv. Freed claims Hunt and Frank Sturgis, another Watergate defendant, were involved in this action, and two other assassination plots, in Haiti and Guatemala. Also he states in a new book, Give Us This Day, that Hunt, Sturgis and Liddy “were in Mexico City in 1971 as part of an executive action to assassinate the president of Panama” but this was “called off and aborted.” Freed suggests mystery of the Watergate hearings. Why the answer to a This brings us back to the purpose of education. If our goal is to educate Students to be well-rounded thinking individuals, then we at East Carolina must Strive for the highest standards possible. We would like to see an increased enrollment, but is it not true that the best universities in the country have the longest waiting lists? If, in the future, East Carolina is to be a truly fine institution, then now is the time to establish ourselves. East Carolina can begin now to meet the challenge of higher education. The first step would be a retention of the foreign language as a requirement for admission. If the proposal to drop the requirement is passed, then the university may as well present every incoming freshman with his degree as soon as he arrives, because the next four years he spends here will mean absolutely nothing. | urge all members of the Faculty Senate to consider the damage this proposal will do not only to future Students but to the entire system of education. Sincerely, Chery! Perry Football team To Fountainhead: The East Carolina University football team has suffered the agony of defeat and, fortunately, more often, the ectasy of triumph and victory this current football season. The entire team - including the coaches have put forth a most extensive, and admirable effort on behalf of the University and | certainly hope their chances at a bowl game aren’t bungled because of “lack of support” as they were last year. It appears to me that the team has more support behind them than they ever had before as evidenced at the last home game against VMI. We're all hoping for big things from this great team effort and, | for one, am grateful to the ECU Football Team! A supporter for the ECU Footbai!

IK EEE a ne, lO FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 13/23 OCT. 1973 New goals are cited for future universities (CPS)--Individual colleges and universities in the United States have _ larger responsibilities than solving _ their particular “crises in higher education” according to the concluding report of the Carnegie Commission on Higher Edu- sation released October 9. Summarizing nearly six years of study and deliberations the Commission sketched broad guidelines for a socially just and financially stable post-secondary educational network of the future. The Commission included hundreds of specific recommendations aimed at implementing these goals. “Survival, with memories of past glories, is not enough of a program for higher education as it approaches the year 2000,” reported the Commission. “Nor is it enough for society as it relies more and more in creating its future on the high skills and careful thought that higher education can so effectively help supply.” The Commission’s agenda for higher education, organized under six ‘Priorities for Action” include: --Advancement of social justice --Enhancement of constructive change --Acnievement of more effective governance --Assurance of resources and their more effective use --Clarification of purposes --Preservation and enhancement of quality and diversity The distinguished panel of American educators and laymen who make up the Commission began their work in July, 1967 with a charge from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching to make a systematic appraisal of higher education and to suggest guidelines for its development in the 1970’s and beyond to the year 2000. Dr. Clark Kerr, former president of the University of California, served as its chairman. The Commission stated ‘all remnants of inequality of educational opportunity due to race, sex, family level of income, and geographic location should be overcome substantially by 1980 and as completely as possible by the year 2000.” In its analysis the Commission recognizes “there is very little time to make the necessary adjustments,” and that realizing its egalaterian goal “may be the work for a generation -- requiring Y n/ ‘OZ. erat tetetarapeteterot or onesececeadcenececececezo=9n9< blast,” continued the coach. “It was just that he coughed up the ball. Pinkney recovered his second fumble of the game. Citadel partisans questioned the referees interpretation, to put it mildly. They felt that maybe it should (have been just an incomplete pass. The fans took their chagrin out on the Pirates, and unfortunately they got a little out of hand. With 2000 cadets screaming and jumping up and down on the aluminum ‘stands of Johnson Hagood Stadium, the Pirates twice had to go back to the huddle without being able to call a play due to the noise. “It's a shame they let the cadets behave like that,” said coach Randle. “Enthusiasm is great but there is a time and place for everything.” On the first play the Pirates were able to finally run, a lineman jumped offside, unable to hear Summerell call the signals. “It was a fiasco the last 30 minutes,” according to coach Randle. “I just told the team to maintain their composure.” “It is common courtesy to allow the disgraceful.” The Pirates ate up the last 4:38 of the game before Crumpler scored his third TD with three seconds left on the clock. His one yard run, followed by Woody's conversion made the final score 34-0. The fact still remains that the Bucs did fumble the ball away six times, and one shudders to think what would happen against the Tar Heels if that should continue. “The turnovers, those fumbles—they will be corrected in time for our trip to Chapel Hill. | guarantee it,” said Randle. Citadel coach Ross had this to say about the Pirates after the game. “I'd say they were comparable to William & Mary, just that they get after it better on defense.” So the Bucs head to Chapel Hill next week to tackle a Tar Heel squad which is having an unusual season-a losing one. After a 16-0 loss to Tulane they will be breathing fire in anticipation of a much needed victory. Women blank UNC-W Winning is becoming a habit with the women's tennis team as ECU blanked UNC-Wilmington 9-0 last week to run their record to 6-0. The pattern for the match was set early by Ellen Warren in a swift victory which saw her lose only one game in winning 6-0, 6-1. The Pirates in fact swept all the singles matches in straight sets. Ann Archer won 6-0, 6-2, Gwen Waller 6-1, 6-1, Susan Bussey 6-3, 6-4, Ann Chavasse 7-5, 6-2 and Ginny Deese 7-5, 6-4. The dominance in the singles matches was evident in the doubles where all three of the Pirate’s pairs won. Misses Archer and Waller won 8-1, Misses Bussey and Warren won 8-5 and Cynthia Averett and Miss Deese won 8-4 The last home match of the season will take place at the Minges Courts Oct 25 against Peace College at 3 p.m The match against Peace College has an added flair in that both teams are presently undefeated
