During the week of February 10th, the Teacher Evaluation Committee will be running a survey that will include approximately two-thirds of the student body. The survey will be given only in the classes of professors who consent to it. TWO PART SURVEY Part | of the survey will be subjective and is designed specifically to give percentages. Part Il, however, is for the student's comments. Comments obtained in this section should be “as if you were telling a friend about a class you have had and things he wants to know about before he gets involved in it,” said Mary Ellis, co-chairman of the Teacher Evaluation Committee. Part II will be correlated by ten students from each department. The chairman of each department selects one student and this student selects nine other students to tally the results. EVALUATION PROCESS Part | is mainly for research correlation of variables containing the student’s sex, grade point average, and the grade expected for the course. Different hypotheses could be worked on from this background information. 9 In the evaluation process the student blackens either space 5 (best), 1 (worst), 3 (average), 2 (below average) or 4 (above average, but not the greatest). WECU pushes for FM By SUSAN SHERMAN Staff Writer WECU, East Carolina's campus radio station is still attempting to be licensed as an FM station. Alan Dehmer, news director and chairman of the committee working for a FM license, stated that there was a “mountain of things to do” before taking their request to the Federal Communi- cation Commission. In order to acquire an FM license, a station must prove to the FCC that it will be an asset to the community. At this time, the station must also apply for an FM frequency to operate on. The research and work which procedes the license and frequency application includes legal representation and of course, money. The station's efforts must also be supported by both public and campus organization, the University administration and the SGA. Dehmer said that the station now has the backing of VISTA and Rev. Earnhardt, a United Methodist minister associated with the Wesley Foundation. The station also has petitions containing the signatures of approximately five thousand students and Greenville residents In order to gain more support the station will ask such campus organi- Studies and several community groups. These groups will include the NAACP and ACLU. Dehmer also stresses that any campus or community organization interested in supporting the FM station should contact him at WECU or by calling 758-6656. ALAN DEHMEH zations as European and African Area E Before the FCC will consider an application for a FM license, the station must as stated before, prove it will be an asset to the community. It must also present an acceptable program format to the Commission. This format must include a schedule of programs which will benefit both the campus and community. Dehmer says that the proposed special programs include broadcasts of city council, county commissioner, and SGA meetings. Religious programs are pro- posed for Sunday mornings plus the broadcast of the Great Decisions program. A FM sstation will also allow the students and others within a fifteen mile radius to enjoy a split format in stereo music. This split format includes the “top 40" during the day and progressive music at night. Dehmer explains that progres- sive music is aimed toward those persons cultured in listening to music. Album selections will include a combination of rock, jazz and contemporary music. Deh- mer added that these selections will not include bubblegum (Donny Osmond, Partridge family) music The proposed beginning of the FM station is the Winter Quarter of 1974. Dehmer will be spending the next two months gathering the needed support and money to back this request for WECU Questions typical of Part Il are Fairness in Grading 5. is consistently fair, just, and impartial 1. is unjust in grading and openly shows favoritism. Tolerance of Contrasting Viewpoints 5. basically tolerant; listens to student comments and welcomes questions 1. basically intolerant, suppresses question-asking, won't listen to student comments Stimulation of Curiosity 5. inspires effort and desire for independent investigation 1. effectively destroys interest in subject The back page of the questionnaire will have space for comments. This will not limit the student’s evaluation only to the committee's specific questions. » SURVEY GOALS Ellis discussed the goals of the survey: “The survey will attempt to be representative of the student's view of undergraduate education here at ECU. It will also help the professors to know the reactions fo their students to their teaching methods. It will help the conscientious student device a course program that will be of most benefit to him. It’s not really meant to help the lazy students find crib courses or easy professors, but primarily to help the student in scheduling courses in terms of giving him an idea of what to expect. (For example, the number of tests and term papers he should expect). It is primarily for the students.” STARTED BY SGA The Teacher Evaluation program started by the SGA “came from the faculty committee that is working on the teacher evaluation. Their evaluation will be used primarily to choose those faculty members who deserve ai ards. The faculty committee is not certain if they will publish their results. Basically that is the reason we have decided to carry out this evaluation on our own, said Ellis. Results of the survey will tentatively be available in a free student publication- prior to the end of spring quarter. This publication will cost the SGA approxi- mately $7,000. It will be an annual publication and will deal with 665 faculty members. EVERY CLASS The publication will be in paragraph form containing narrative ideas on the professor. He or she will be evaluated for every class he (or she) teaches, because (s)he often does not teach the same way for every course. 4 RESULTS AVAILABLE Professors will be given an opportunity to see copies of their evaluation in advance of the publication’s release. Therefore, if they feel they would like to respond to their students’ evaluation, they may submit their responses. These will be printed directly following the students’ evaluations in the publication. They would also be given a chance to restructure their course or defend themselves if need be MORE INFO Anyone wanting more information or who wants to help the committee may call: Mary Ellis (752-2687) or Larry Hurst, chairman (758-3253) 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 33/7 FEB. 1974 Rata TOOL AOI OOO news FLASHFLASHFLASHFLASHFLASH The New Riders On Tuesday, February 12, America’s favorite singing cowboys, The New Riders of the Purple Sage will appear in concert Casino Day Casino Day - February 9, 12:00-3:00 University Union.

Last May Bill Bodenhamer sent us a letter recommending that our funds be cut to $9,000 a year. In September the Pub Board cut us to $6,000 a year,” Arrington said. This last cut was made without any representation from The Rebel, since it was without an editor at the time, according to Arrington. Sandy Penfield took the position of Rebel editor last May but was unable to hold the position this fall because of “personal and physical reasons.” Arrington, editor of the '73 Rebel, was reappointed without competition to the position. “| knew the publication was in trouble so | applied for the position and was accepted,” he said. “I think a question that should be asked of the student body is why no one ever runs for the position of Rebel editor,” he continued. Soon after Arrington resumed his position as editor, he received a notice from SGA President Bodenhamer stating that the Rebel would be cut in its number of publications from quarterly to annually, said Arrington. “| think it’s a subtle political move to do away with the publication altogether,” Arrington said. “| feel it puts a lot more pressure on us.” Arrington explained that the public- ation cut produces too much of a gap between the appearance of The Rebel, making it easy for students to forget the publication is still in operation. “A lot of people on this campus don’t know we exist,” Arrington said. SPRING ’74 EDITION The estimated cost of this year's Rebel is $5,959 out of the allotted $6,000 according to Arrington. The length will run 40 to 50 pages, depending on the prices offered by the printers. National Graphics will probably be printing the 1974 edition since they have done the past three issues of The Rebel. Although the yearly editions of The Rebel usually feature material collected from fall, winter, and spring quarters, the Spring 1974 Rebel will actually be a winter-spring edition. Since The Rebel had no editor during fall quarter of 1973, no material was submitted. After it was announced that the Rebel would begin accepting material for its spring edition, the response was “excellent,” according to Arrington. “In two weeks, enough material was submitted and accepted to produce two-thirds of The Rebel,” Arrington said. “The campus responded so well that there was no need to accept submissions from outsiders.” The Rebel is a student publication and strives to use a majority of student material. According to Arrington, every student who has material accepted is paid for their works. The rates of pay are relative to the quantity and quality of the submissions, he said. Payments for literary and photographic submissions run as follows: illustrations $8 to $10; poetry, $5 to $8; and short stories and fiction, $8 to $10. All money used for paying contributors is taken from the allotted $6,000. THEME The theme for the Spring ’74 Rebel will revolve around selections from two noted authors. One will be a paragraph taken from Oscar Wilde’s essay, “Decay of the Lion,” and the other a statement made by Picasso: “Art is a lie that helps you realize the truth.” Arrington feels that he accomplishes the statement of theme “more subtly than past editors.” He does not plan to make a blatant statement of theme, but rather establish it through forms of submissions and marginal quotes of authors and poets “to set the tone and position of the magazine.” “In the past, themes used were war, poverty, and freedom,” he said. “These political metaphors are sluggish, outdated and narrow.” “We try to view the magazine as apolitical, but we can’t get rid of it in poetry altogether.” What about the possibility of controversial material? “We are including some pieces that while they are not controversial in our eyes, they could be to some,” said Arrington. There is an assumption held by many that literary publications have a particular license in as-much as they can’t take things out of context, especially in poetry,” he said, “so we have made a statement to take care of possible controversy.” As a possible safeguard against controversy that may result from the contents of the publication, Arrington will include a piece in the front of The Rebel stating that the ideas expressed in the issue are not necessarily those held by the magazine staff itself. SUBMISSIONS ACCEPTED Since the theme of The Rebel is set largely by the student material in the magazine, Arrington aims at selecting “the best in creative and aesthetic aspects in campus material.” However, to date, more submissions have been accepted than rejected by Arrington. Those submissions that have been rejected have been classified by Arrington as “not for publication.” These rejected pieces, he said, are “extremely hearts and flowers and are syrupy.” “I don’t mean that these submissions are without value in their author's own experiences, but they are not suitable for publication.” Because of the often large numbers of submissions offered by single contribu- tors, Arrington often has to choose the best of the works of a contributor in order to allow more students to have their pieces published. “Just because someone had one or two pieces accepted doesn’t mean we don’t l'ke all of their work,” he said. “We have t. be selective so we can include more students.” Arrington is able to use a great deal more diversity in literature than in art in the magazine, he said. “The art holds the magazine together visually. If it didn’t the magazine would be hodge-podge and sloppy.” PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS Arrington takes the best of the offerings because of the professional aims of The Rebel. Each edition is sent to the American Collegiate Press (ACP) for a critical grading. The rating of All American, the highest rating offered by ACP, was achieved by the Spring 1972, Fall 1972 and Winter 1972 editions of The Rebel. The Spring 1973 edition was also sent to be graded, but results have not returned. ACP received about 2,500 manuscripts and yearbooks for criticism and rating according to Arrington. The magazine is graded sectionally by ACP on a 2,000 point scale. By having the magazine graded "you get an idea where you stand,” said Arrington. In Spring of 1972 when Arrington was editor for The Rebel, it received a grade of 1,800 points. “| think this years Rebel will come closest to what I’ve wanted. I’m more at home now with what | want and know what | want to express,” Arrington said of the Spring '74 Rebel. REBEL STAFF Arrington chooses his own staff from friends he thinks have the ability and experience to make The Rebel a success. The staff consists of: Sandy Penfield and Marvin Hunt, co-ordinating editors; Glenn Lewis, art director; and David Swinck, Business manager. With the exception of Penfield, an undergraduate, all staff members are graduate students at ECU. “All members of the staff were chosen for their experience except Hunt. He had worked close with The Rebel in the past and had good critical knowledge,” said Arrington. “It’s practically mandatory that the Staff members have a highly defined and workable criticism,” he said. Staff members are also paid from the allotted $6,000, as there is no outside revenue for The Rebel. We're thinking about ad revenue if cuts continue. It makes it kind of hard to exist when funds keep getting cut,” said Arrington. EXPECTED DATE The expected date of delivery of the Spring ’74 Rebel is one week before reading day of spring quarter, although it may be earlier. “We need two weeks to look over the final copy and the printers need 30 days,” said Arrington. After The Rebel is compiled, it willbe read by Rebel advisor, Ovid Pierce of the English department. Pierce’s job is not one of censorship, said Arrington. “He will look over the final submission and express his opinion of approval or disapproval. Depending on time taken by the final steps, The Rebel will be delivered to the campus sometime after the first week in May. FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 33/7 FEB. 1974 Overseas study information ffice serves By MIKE PARSONS Special to Fountainhead An office dedicated to serving ECU students in areas concerning international student problems, overseas study programs and summer employment opportunities has opened in the social science building. The need for a focal point in international affairs was impressed on the administration through the efforts of Bob Lucas, SGA Secretary of International Affairs, Ron Scronce, _ international student advisor, Richard Barefoot and Jamshid Jafari. The result was the opening of the office specifically directed to: -Aid the ECU international student in solving the problems encountered in coming to the United States for schooling; -Inform ECU students of the opportunities available — for studying overseas ; -Inform ECU students of the opportunities for summer employment in other countries. The international student has many problems unique to his situation, explained Lucas. He comes to American colleges with only the knowledge of English which he gained in school. This handicaps him in understanding the slang which we have used all our jife, Lucas added. HELP PROVIDED Before the office was created, the international students had no one to help them in becoming adjusted to campus life. They would get off the plane, go through the same orientation as other students which assumes that they have lived in the area before and would be lost in the lines in front of the General College advisor’s office. The new office will try to correct that dilemma. Present plans are to have a system where someone from campus will meet them when they arrive in Greenville. They will have two students, one boy and one girl, who will volunteer to act as a brother ae “LOOK MAN, I’ve had just about enough of you, so get off my back...or else.” BOB LUCAS and sister to them through their first quarter at ECU. These students will help them get acquainted with the campus and the town, and will answer questions about differences in customs of the local area. The students will also try to work through civic groups to give the international student the chance to make friends with people who are not students. The office will be available to the international student who has questions on course selections or other areas which may have puzzled him about campus life. In addition, the office will provide a gathering point where international a z Pa suiqcey uoa Ag students can take a break from studies and find someone to just talk to. Barefoot, who operates the office, will offer opinions from the worst politician in the area to the best looking girl on campus at no extra charge. Gen. John Lang, vice chancellor for external affairs, has given the office of international affairs all authority neces- sary to expand recruitment of internation- al students and provide an information and communication center catering to their needs. The office will also work to secure a counterpart in the administration who will serve as a full-time advisor to the students. FILET OF 4]9 West Main St. EAST CAROLINA iS “FISH HOUSE COUNTRY. GO PIRATES IN WASHINGTON Drive a Little and Eat a Lot ! ALL YOU CAN EAT Flounder § ; international students needs International students are only one of the concerns of the office, however. Lucas and Barefoot have worked to accumulate a library of information concerning education and employment opportunities overseas for the ECU student. The university does not have any overseas campuses directly associated with it at present. However, Lang has been working toward obtaining a $94,300 grant which will allow three professors and 15 students to pursue a course in Eastern studies in Japan. JOB OPPORTUNITIES Summer job opportunities for ECU students can be found through the information available in the office. Opportunities for jobs overseas usually require some knowledge of the language, emphasized Barefoot. - There are some cases however, that American college students can find employment where their mastery of English is important. One of these cases is Finland. A student can live in Finland for a summer with his only duties being to help a child master English. In return, the family he is with will give him room, board and pocket money for entertainment and personal use. The student has to provide his own ’ transportation between the countries. Other opportunities for employment include work at resorts, hotels and restaurants. All of these vary in regard to required knowledge of language, pay and work permits. A passport and visa are required in most countries before applying for a job. The information and forms for obtaining these, as well as international student cards, are available in the office as well. International student cards can help obtain discounts for plays, cinemas, transportation and many other events while traveling overseas. The new office is located in SA-106. Barefoot is there most days from 35 p.m., as well as_ irregular times throughout the day. He will be happy to talk to anyone that needs information about these things.

The SGA has this $45,000 surplus at the present because SGA funds are carried over from the previous year. There are remaining assets because auditors are one year behind and there are extra funds left in the present budget amounting to a total of $45,000 that is available to be spent. Bodenhamer suggested that the money be spent for the following areas: -$500 be spent to send the 1971-72 “All-American” ECU yearbook to all N.C. high schools for recruitment purposes. -$5,000 be appropriated as a loan fund for international students so that these students might be able to borrow $200 for a year at no interest. -$1,000 be appropriated for programs in the freshman orientation program. -$8,000 be appropriated so that the WRC and the SGA president could set up a system. whereby freshman women_ in Fleming, Jarvis, and Cotten would have an open curfew five nights a week. -$7,000 be appropriated to establish a teacher evaluation system. This system would allow for the evaluation of each teacher once a year by one of their classes. This evaluation would be published in a magazine form and distributed free of charge to students. [See related story in this issue.] -$12,000 be appropriated to buy another bus to insure continued success of the transportation system at ECU and to assure maximum usage of student transportation fees. Bodenhamer also proposed a constitu- tional amendment that would alter the membership of the publications board. Two members would be elected by students, two members would be appointed by the administration and two would be appointed by the SGA president and legislature. “This would allow for more supervision which is badly needed in publication,” Bodenhamer said. “The SGA has been successful due to working directly with the administration this year,” Bodenhamer said. “Every program has had direct imput of the administration.” he added. { TOM CLARE “The legislature, co-equal of the executive council, has been another reason for the success of the SGA this year. The legislators have had a keen insight into the needs of the student body.” “| have had the most efficient and effective cabinet ever in the SGA,” Bodenhamer declared. He then proceeded to introduce each member of his cabinet and explain their positions and some of their accomplishments during the past year. He stated the following in his address: Jim Davis, secretary of academic affairs initiated the following programs: (1) placing student members on each Faculty Senate committee, (2) a drop-add policy whereby a student may drop a course during the first 20 days of a regular quater, (3) a forgiveness policy - which allows readmission of students after a three year absence and removal of D's and ‘F’s, and (4) a teacher evaluation system. Maurice Huntley, secretary of minority affairs has encouraged minority students to be involved in the SGA and has helped in minority orientation during the summer and _ initiating the idea of publishing recruiting booklets concerning minority affairs. Attorney General Tom Clare has worked with a local lawyer in operating a legal advice system for students. The office of international affairs has been “new but. productive under the direction of Bob Lucas,” Bodenhamer continued. Lucas has met with interna tional students to find out problems that they are facing on the ECU campus and ' has written a five page report entitled BROOKS BEAR “The Current Status of International Students’ Needs”. He has also tried to help establish an international studies major, and has promoted ECU foreign study programs. Lucas also started a program which locates student summer employment in Europe. He now has an office in S-A 106 where students can come by to get information conceming international studies or summer employ- ment in Europe. Brooks Bear, secretary of internal affiars, has worked with all of the projects in each of the cabinet offices. “Brooks is directly responsible for the code-a-phone, or the SGA hotline, and an increased student loan fund so _ that students may now borrow $25 a month from the SGA at no interest rate. She is ible for placing suggestion Bodenhamer, continuing his access- ment of his cabinet, said, “Ivan Peacock has been our refrigerator man. When we entered the SGA the refrigerator business was ina state of chaos. Today everything is recorded and expenses have been cut in half.

Bodenhamer concluded his speech announcing that spring SGA elections will be held March 14 and the newly elected officers will assume their positions of office by April 14.

Published by Solar Age Press, Box 53022, New Orleans 70160. 133 pp. $2.75.] (CPS)--Any book whose profits will go to the banning of strip mining would seem a worthwhile investment, but that’s not the only point in favor of THE MARIJUANA FARMERS. Author Jack Frazier also intends to donate a portion of his profits to the revival of the hemp industry in North America. The book’s opening traces marijuana back to the first known people to tum on, the Scythians, through Indian and Celtic cultures, to its cultivation by early American Colonists who used it for fiber and paper, making marijuana one of the colonial states’ major industries. Although he is never very convincing on the relevance of the issue, Frazier is intent upon refuting two long standing historical notions: that hemp was brought to the Americas by the Virginia colonists and that either Columbus or Leif Ericson were the first foreigners to visit America. Citing some rather obscure historians, maps and archeological evidence, Frazier maintains voyages were made to the Americas as far back as 531 B.C. by the Phonecians, Romans, Hebrews and others from Africa and the Mediterranean. Because ships were equipped with rope and other hemp products, naturally travellers brought seeds with them in order to plant more of it, Frazier says. Some of these travellers estabiished cultures of marijuana users which have been purposely ignored by historians. Some delightful historical detail in the book includes the innovative ways ancient peoples put marijuana to use. The ancient Scythians, who roamed Asia and ruled Russia during the time of the Greeks, had a method of getting stoned that rivals those of Don Juan and the Merry Pranksters. According to the Greek historians, Herodotus, writing in the fifth’ century B.C., the Scythians had a unique sauna bath. In small tent-like structures equipped with red hot stones they bathed and inhaled the fumes of hemp which they threw on the stones, “ _.immediate- ly it smokes and gives out such a vapour as no Grecian vapour-bath can exceed ; the Scyths, delighted, shout for joy...” This sauna bath was also used later by the American Indians. An 18th century trestise on hemp includes the following uses: “They gave a paste made of it to hogs and horses to fatten them. . .and poor people eat the oil of it in their soup.” : 4 fed ns /s-” esa a I hea a a The persecution of marijuana cultures is an obsession with Frazier. Two cultures, the American Indians and the Celts of Ireland and Wales fell to the onslaught of Christian, Anglo-Saxon hordes who destroyed their writings and cultures and introduced them to new drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Ireland and Northern England were inhabited by two of the earliest hemp smokers, the Celts and the Picts, and here have been found many prehistoric pipes which apparently predate the introduction of tobacco into the area. However, the history of the first pot-users is secondary to the chief concerns of the cannabis cultivator which are: now that we have it, how can we best grow it and put it to use? The second part of the book, including “Conversations with a Hemp Farmer’, deals with these questions. For those of us who doubt that hemp can be grown under present laws Frazier has a homey, free-flowing chat with a nonchalant hemp farmer who gives tips on planting, watering, transplanting, fertilizing, harvesting and seed cultivation of hemp as well as how to distinguish the male from the female plant. A hint of the fulfillment of marijuana growing is captured in this question Frazier puts to the hemp farmer: “Do you ever get the feeling the hemp plant feels its purpose in life is to tum people on and the healthier and more robust it is the more people it is tuming on?” As a solution to the paper shortage and the clearcutting of forests for paper pulp, Frazier suggests the hurds, or inner stalk of the hemp plant be used for pulp production, as they were before the introduction of the chemical wood pulping process in 1854. Paper made from hemp has been used for thousands of years; indeed, the hemp plant is so sturdy and versatile that discarded hemp fiber clothing was recycled by printers to ce make paper. The per acre pulp producing capacity of hemp is reportedly four times that of wood. Although neither his style nor his ‘historical objectivity’ would win acclaim, and his obsession with the persecution of hemp cultures sounds like an over-mani- festation of pot smokers paranoia, Fraziers book will likely become an underground favorite among the mari- juana farmers of the present day. For those who find some of Frazier’s claims somewhat incredible, his extensive bibliography offers further reading to those interested in pursuing the historical and anthropological aspects of hemp growing. “Cerebral meanings ”™ oO Seagull questioned JONATHAN LIVINGSTON SEAGULL or [My Two Hour Battie With Nausea] By BRANDON TISE Staff Writer After viewing the movie version of Jonathan Livingston Seagull all | can say is —- Yecch. At this point | know that I’ve put violent rage into the heart of any Jonathan Livingston Seagull fans that might read this review. The book was readable, at times even interesting, but the movie was unbearable. The movie throws together two hours of beady-eyed seagulls flying over the sunlit and moonlit waves, crashing and thrashing over menacing rocks while Jonathan expounds his philosophical (7) theories. The movie basically follows the pattern of the book but the video account detracts from the audio’s “cerebral meanings”. The photography is well done, though not superb, but the background shots provide food for thought (at least five seconds worth). The climax of the movie occurred during one of Jonathan's many self-righteous soliloquies on the beauty of flight. Without warning, totally unexpect- il ed, and completely surprising the audience, someone in the fourth row let out a tremendous burp. Buy the book, buy the Richard Harris readings, but unless you are an unstoppable Jonathan Livingston Seagull fan, (complete with official T-shirt), and unusually fond of watching seagulls flying over the ocean, then stay away from this sham of a movie. You will save your money, your time, and your sanity. E.L. and P. perform brain surgery By ARMEC! TUCIGLIANO Staff Writer Following an absence of almost 18 months in producing an album, England’s (Keith) Emerson, (Greg) Lake and (Car!) Palmer have given birth to the electrifyng Brain Salad Surgery on the Manticore label. With Keith leading the way on piano, organ, accordion, harpsichord, Moog synthesizer and the polyphonic Moog ensemble, the music spins a delicate web and is at the least aesthetically palatable. The music ranges from the slow, methodical strumming of Greg Lake's acoustic guitar, to the loud, staccato shrills of Emerson’s collection of Moogs. The polyphonic ensemble adds quite a dimension to ELP’s depth. Palmer is the master of all manners of percussion. Included in his 20-foot high bank of drums is a_ special Moog attachment. Each synthesizer is tumed to a pitch and can sound 12 notes without changing the basic drum rhythm. : Lake, the cirtuoso lyricist, bassist- guitarist and businessman behind ELP’s far-reaching Napoleonic powers, wrote most of Brain Salad. He swears that the lyrics are dirty, but listening to the words leaves one scratching his head. It appears that by using the confusing lyrics, the-trio have tried to copy the style of that English rock-star composer, Tull’s lan Anderson. But any resemblance is _ purely coincidnetal.

K. LOFTIN Staff Writer For the past few years, America and the world have been caught up in a nostalgic mood, concerned with rehash- ing and improving past achievements by others. The current rock n’ roll and country crazes attest to this fact. Accord- ingly, very little energy has been spent by musicians to find new modes of musical expression in this post-Beatles era with only a few exceptions: Yes, Jethro Tull’s later works, King Crimson, Genisis, ELP (all from England) , and to a certain extent, Joe Walsh, here in the U.S. But with the release of Tubular Bells, Mike Oldfield has provided the music listener (not just the “rock” music listener) with a completely new genre of music presentation. It is completely incompar- able with anything done previously, and yet it does not rest on just being different, it is also intriguing. It has traces of classicism, baroque, jazz, rock, rag-time, pop, folk ballads and almost anything else than can be imagined. It also has a particular quality which is exhibited when all of these styles are assimilated to produce something completely unknown before. In accordance with the massive scope which this album covers, it is appropriate that Mr. Oldfield also plays every instrument in the album except for flutes, string bases (he does play bass guitar, though), the drums on side 2, and the vocal instrumentations, except for Piltdown Man! This is an_ entirely instrumental album, with all incidental voices used as instruments, not for vocalizing words. There are also no songs included; simply sides 1 and 2. Side One Side 1, which lasts 25 minutes, begins with a small piano figure which repeats itself incessantly, but never quite reaches the point of monotony. Indeed, this quality is evident throughout the entire album. Though various patterns are used in a repetitive manner, they never bore, because new instruments are continually introduced, and as these come in, the old ones gradually fade until the listener is aware of a completely new set of melodies and harmonies in addition to the new instrumentation. The most outstand- ing example of this is the closing section of side 1, which begins with a small figure on guitar and bass guitar. Then, as the narrator tells us, various instruments are added consecutively, including: farfisa organ, grand piano (which begins a new figure), reed and pipe on the Lowery organ, glockenspiel, bass guitar, double speed guitar, too slightly distorted guitars, mandolin, Spanish guitar, acoustic guitar, and finally, tubular bells! To this manegerie of sound he then introduces a second melody with female voices and gradually fades the other instruments out except for the guitars backing these voices. Finally, the voices disappear, and the piece is completed with a gentle acoustic guitar. Side Two Side 2 opens with electric piano, guitar, bass and organ, each doing a particular melody of its own. It seem rather like the sound track for a film one might see on a Sunday morning on T.V. It brings to mind scenes of sunrise, of birds feeding their young, of gentle raindrops falling in a reflective puddle; a very pleasing listening experience, with subtle unexpected changes. This conti- nues with varying modifications until a bit over half-way. Piltdown Man enters then with his animalistic vocalizations. Im (SPECIAL PRIZE FOR WoRST!! ) TOP HITS OF THE 1950's OP HITE lope: ‘SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATOR ' ‘PARTY DOLL' * ROCK: IN ROBIN’ mediately following this, the music acquires a solid drum beat and a contingent of screaming electric guitars. Soon, however, the volume goes back to acoustic and Piltdown’s voice, and then, right back up again. It’s an amazing conglomeration of moods, instruments, and melodies, which soothes and incites. Suddenly though, everything drops gently back down to a smooth Hammond organ background with rippling guitars. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, a grand finale comes across that completely destroys any sense of composure this album might have produced in the listener. Mike Oldfield is a peculiar, strange and positive genius.

Please, do not think that these words on paper can convery the magnitude of sound which the album conveys - but hear for yourself. While the subtleties may be lost on many, the variety of moods and mental settings will affect everyone who hears it. And if there are some who don't find anything in it for them, just keep it to play at a party when everyone is in a_ strange frame of mind. See what happens then. 8 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 33/7 FEB. 1974 Editorials/;Commeniary T a es f t opinion ! on — GOP to be ‘wiped out’ ? i & At last the opportunity is being given students {to evaluate their p 7 nam professors.

Music funds To Fountainhead: This letter is written to clear any misconceptions that may have arisen, by oral transmission or Forum letters, conceming the $1000 dollar music appropriations passed by the S.G.A. in early January, 1974. The original bill was divided into two sections: Part | requested $5000 for scholarships; Part Il requested $5000 dollars for the support of performance groups. The former was denied by the Appropriations Committee for two reasons: (1) The administration should have the responsibility of providing scholarships; (2) By allotting scholarship money to the music building, the S.G.A. would be besieged by other departments demandi'ig equal representation. PART II requested money for tours, commissioning new works, extra string players for large orchestral works, guest soloists, and publicity for concerts. The money for tours was refused because the committee felt that such tours do not benefit the students on campus. The orchestra was allotted $1000 dollars in the fall and was tured down upon this basis. At this point, the committee requested an expense budget for the performing groups. An expense budget was prepared, asking for $9200 dollars. This budget included the Wind Ensemble, Symphony Orchestra, Mens Glee Club, Womens Glee Club, University Chorale, Jazz Ensemble, and Chamber Singers. The end result was a $1000 dollar appropriation, $750 of which had to be matched by music funds. The S.G.A. funds had to be used for on campus performances. The money is to be allotted by the Student Forum of the School of Music, who would report on the spending of the funds every two months to the S.G.A. The rationale for the smaller appropriation dealt with these three main points: 1. The S.G.A. receives its budget from Student activity fees, monies that are to be used on campus for the benefit of the E.C.U. students. 2. The funding of the performance groups should be an administration function. 3. The S.G.A. did not have $9200 dollars to appropriate to the School of Music at this late date. The music students hold these views upon the situation: 1. Off-campus tours benefit the entire university through aural and _ visual publicity of the university performance groups, thereby encouraging prospective students to consider E.C.U. as_ their choice for continued a2ducation. In- creased enrollment--more activity fees for the S.G.A. to work with—more faculty members—better facilities for education. 2. The Music School recruits for the better music students as mush as the football team recruits for the best players. These tours are the best method for recruitment. 3. The School of Music was the only department in the university to increase its enrollment last year. The School. of Music enjoys a respected reputation throughout the Eastern Seaboard; this reputation also reflects upon E.C.U. 4. The S.G.A. has supported the School of Music in the past, eg., $8000 dollars in 1967. 5. Last year, the S.G.A. offered matching scholarships of $5000 dollars to the Fine Arts Departments. Music was the only department to match these funds and sought a continuation of that support for this year. 6. The $10,000 dollars the School of Music requested is approximately 1/25th of the S.G.A.’s total budget for this year-less than 1 percent of the entire acitivity fees for the year. We feel that the request was not exhorbitant when compared to other S.G.A. appropriations. 7. Many music students believe that some S.G.A.appropriations could have been spent in support of music performance groups. 8. The School of Music receives no funds from the state to support the performance groups. By asking for $10,000 dollars from the S.G.A., the Music Building could continue the degree of excellence it considers standard for E.C.U. A compari- son with other schools is shown below: Appalachian State University - received $19,000 dollars from the S.G.A. University of N.C. at Greensboro received $10,000 dollars from the S.G.A. North Carolina State University - S.G.A. rasied activity fees to build a music building. The music students were greatly disappointed about the size of the appropriation. However, we respect the views of the S.G.A. on this situation, although we do not necessarily agree with these views. Perhaps the largest problem is found in our late requesting of these funds. Next year, we will join the early birds. Robert M. Sullivan a music major To Fountainhead: The SGA passed a bill to appropriate six hundred dollars to the lacrosse team. Having recently finished hassling with the Appropriations Committee and the SGA for a bare two hundred and fifty dollars for music performance groups ($750 more is available if we match it), | would like to voice three objections. Objection No. 1 - The SGA informed me that the support of music performance groups should be the responsibility of the administration. If this statement is true, common sense compels one to believe that the lacrosse team should be funded by the Athletic Department, regardless of whether the team adds points to the President’s cup. The Athletic Department receives approximately $250,000 dollars a . year from activity fees. Surely, they can afford a small sum of $600 dollars for the lacrosse team. Objection No. 2 - Ms. Cindy Domme, chairman of the Appropriations Commit- tee, informed me that the SGA cannot fund off-campus tours because it does not benefit the students on campus. Could Ms. Domme enlighten me as to how the lacrosse away games will benefit the students on campus? Our music appropriation was stipulated for on campus use only. Objection No. 3 - | was also intormed that the music building should raise its own funds for tours, expenses, etc. We have done so on many occasions by selling candy bars, spaghetti dinners, doughnuts, drinks, sponsoring talent shows, and slave sales. Why can't the lacrosse team do likewise? Honestly, | do not hate sports; | am proud of the teams at ECU. But, the SGA has no right to use activity fees to support any athletic team; the Athletic Department receives $9.00 dollars a quarter per student through activity fees to support the sports program. The students of the Arts possess memories that can best be compared to the proverbial elephant. Perhaps those in- terested candidates for the upcoming SGA elections should bea this information in mind. Robert M. Sullivan Dismayed To Fountainhead : As concemed students, we are dismayed at the upcoming loss of a new faculty member in the School of Art, Mr. Henry Stindt. The departmental teaching staff will be reduced in the school year 1974-75 as a consequence of a lack of funds. Funds have been used to provide a beautiful new art building on campus which is presently under construction. This building will house most of the art facilities, however, it will be most unfortunate that there will not be enough instructors to fill the classrooms. Mr. Stindt is one of three faculty in the Communication Arts division within the school. This field encompasses a majority of the students within the School of Art. The university apparently expects the two remaining instructors to teach, motivate and spark creative interest in those students. But we are not only concemed at the loss in manpower. After less than two full quarters, Mr. Stindt has demanded and gained respect. and admiration of his students. His influ- ences and background combined with his personal aspirations create a unique blend that adds to the diversity of our faculty. The field of art needs litan influences which Mr. Stindt can so aptly provide. We appreciate the new bullding, but feel that instruction from over-worked professors will compromise the benefits of the new building. In conclusion, we hope that this decision will be reconsidered. Art Students APO responds To Fountainhead: Dear Mr. Edwards and all Campus Organizations: The Brothers of Alpha Phi Omega would like to extend you a invitation to our weekly meeting to be held on Feb. 11, 7:00 p.m. in room 206 of the Student Union to answer any questions you have conceming the way White Ball 1974 was conducted. We would also like to extend this invitation to all Presidents of organi- zations that participated in White Bali and to the Fountainhead. Also present will be Mrs. Gaynor Mills, head of the Pitt County Easter Seals Society and she will answer any questions pertaining to the distribution of the money that was raised. In closing, we would like to thank all organizations who gave their time and effort to make White Ball 1974 the most successful ever. In order to make next years White Ball more successful, we would appreciate any ideas or criticisms that would improve on it in 1975. Please The Brothers of Alpha Phi Omega would like to extend you an invitation to our weekly meeting to be held on Feb. 11, 8:30 p.m., at Lot 42 Lawson's Trailer Court, to answer any questions you may have conceming the way White Ball 1974 was conducted. Cordially yours’ Jim Godfrey President of Alpha Phi Omega The plaque To Fountainhead: Why should Mr. Bodenhamer give the traffic office a plaque? He already got blue lights for the campus police dept. with MRC funds last year. My, my, what will he buy next 777? Anonymous Anti-Bill To Fountainhead : President Bodenhamer of the SGA has overstepped his office powers yet again. First with the mystery of the frozen funds, now the impeachment of Mike Ertis, our treasurer. It seems to this concerned student that Mr. Bodenhamer does not know where his power lies. Maybe there is some mystery that he is trying to keep a secret such as, the expansion of presidential powers, or the attainment of some personal goal. What- ever the case may be, it seems that he is using the publicity of the SGA to extend himself. He had no business calling for the impeachment of anybody. As a matter of fact, he should not have brought up the subject. It may start rumors as to what to do with him. My name was not on the list in the Fountainhead on Tuesday Feb. 5, 1974, but, for what it’s worth, | support Mr. Ertis not because of my views on our president, but because | believe he is injecting some sense into our SGA. The SGA itself is good, but people like Mr. Ertis make it better. It seems a shame that our president detracts so much from the good of the others.

(Environmental Protection Saint) Heaven help us all, we now have our very own saint! The Vatican's official newspaper recently announced that St. Anthony the Abbot may now be “officially invoked” as the patron saint of the environment. St. Anthony's papal appointment was apparently awarded because of the 11th century conservation practices of the monks of the order later named after him rather than for his own good Traditional way is out moded By CAROL WOOD Staff Writer Your great-grandmother probably had rosy cheeks because she ate right and got plenty of exercise. Today, however, this would not be the case. American women find it much easier to squeeze those rosy cheeks out of a tube, rather than take the time to eat balanced meals, get plenty of fresh air and exercise. Any why not? - just snip the end off the tube, and presto, any girl can have that famous all-American girl glow. What could be easier? Perhaps that is the point... .it’s too easy. In the quest for quick and easy methods for everything from dinners to home decorations, perhaps we have lost the satisfaction that comes with doing something the “traditional way”. Maybe the traditional way is passe, but remember when...girls were girls, instead of part of the unisex! Yes, in those days they wore bras, and dresses to show off shapely legs. It’s a whole new ballgame today. Girls have gotten a little lazy. ..blue jeans and a shirt, they contend, is much easier than “dressing up”. Designers predict the dress is coming back. How long it will take the trend to work its way to the South is questionable. But, don’t give up guys! Girls may shed those blue-jeans like a cocoon, and emerge as beautiful spring butterflies. Also, the gentlemenly dressers of yesteryear. Whatever happened to them. . are they extinct? Have they vanished like to many other traditions? Perhaps with the passing of “ladies and gentlemen” also went such traditions as family meals, baking home made bread, washing your own car, walking to school and spending a day in the country. Traditions may really be out moded by the times, but aren't some of them worth bringing back? « Solar energy } \ { > A staggering statistic which gives further weight to the need for serious government research on solar energy is that enough sunlight falls on the U.S. in just two days to provide enough energy to outlast all the country’s known reserves of oil, natural gas and coal. Student uprising causes fall of military dictator (CPS)—-Thailand has gone through. some important changes since a bloody student uprising triggered the fall of the military dictatorship under Thanom Kittikachom last October 14. One of the most important changes has been the rise of the country’s hereditary monarch, King Bhumibol Adulyadej, from his position as ceremonial head of state to that of political leader. In the weeks since the coup in which the King and former university rector Prime Minister Sanya Dhammasakdi stepped into power, Thai goverment has taken a turn toward a more participatory structure. The King convened a conven- tion of several thousand professors, farmers, businessmen and_ military officers to nominate an interim National Assembly with the task of establishing a new government structure. The National Assembly met and selected a pro-royalist Speaker and is now busying itself with setting up a democratic government. Once the new government is on its own, the King is expected to return voluntarily to his former status, as it is the general tradition of Thai monarchs to stay out of political and government affairs.

Kitti- kachom fled the country and is studying for the Buddhist priesthood in a monastery. The students have tumed their attention to international matters. Recently it was revealed that a CIA operative had sent a letter to Prime Minister Sanya claiming to be a communist guerilla, offering a cease-fire in exchange for a recognition of “liberated areas.” For several years, a curious state of affairs had existed in Thailand whereby the US Embassy was virtually the only institution in Thailand actually worried about communist activity. The result of the letter was student deomonstrations against newly appointed US Ambassador William Kinter, and the US itself, which was accused to trying to trump up a communist threat to keep the future of its Thai military bases secure. be different. environmental deeds. Anthony himself was an Egyptian of the 4th Century A.D. who spend the bulk of his 105 years living in caves and frugally existing on bread, salt and water. On the other hand, the Hospital Brothers of St. Anthony were once widely famed for their tree planting zeal and their tenacity in land reclamation. We can only hope now that invoking the good name of Anthony, we don’t upset any of the prior holy lines of conservation specialty. For instance, St. Fiacre, an Irishman who emigrated with productive success to France, is the patron saint of gardners, St. Francis of Assisi is well-known as a friend of all dumb animals and feathered friends, and _St. George has been papally ordained as the patron saint of farmers. St. George _probably won't receive too much attention from environmentalists, though, as he’s quite busy bring the holy protector of England, Portugal, Germany, Venice,~ soldiers and boy scouts. Also, after the heavy workload, he’s probably not too happy about being thrown out of the Christian calendar by the:Vatican last year on the charge of being apocryphal. So with the demons and devils running around disguised as developers, drainers, it might just help to bum a candle or two for St. Anthony every now and then.

ECU presently has a college day program, a method for recruiting students of all ~ faces. ECU is also in conjunction with National Scholarship Service for Negro Students (NSSFNS). Secretary of Minority Affairs Maurice Huntley feels that such programs are not enough. Blacks still have a varied choice ‘of schools because many institutions are «under the same program and take the Same procedures. “This problem is not Solely that of the admissions office,” Stated Huntley. “The problem also ‘belongs to the black student body.” Black students must become recruiters. This is one of the purposes of the Minority Affairs Office. Aware of the cultural differences between the races, Huntley feels that the Campus needs a_ black advocates black recruiting to the point of hiring blacks in the admissions Office, athletic c¢>partment and the adminis- tration. Through an overall view of the blacks on campus, they can be categorized into three groups: (1) a few hard workers, (2) black male athletes, and (3) average black students, mostly Eastern North Carolin- ians. Very few, if any, of these students were sought out for their academic accomplishments. Black high school students who range high in academics tend to shy away from East Carolina, because graduates build the name of the school. ECU has graduated few blacks, because we do not recruit blacks who are gifted in scholarship areas. These students must become aware of the fact that East Carolina has a very fine business, art, drama and music department. Huntley challenges each black student to do his part by bringing as many blacks as possible down to visit, and trying to get them interested in attending this university. He makes a special challenge to the board of trustees, sub-committees and faculty senate to recognize this important factor in our future and commit: themselves to a program or ‘€ SANIVS SNNVINVAW The following letter was submitted to the Fountainhead by Dr. Ralph Steele, recent director of the Parks, Recreation and Conservation department. The letter was written in response to an article appearing in the Feb. 5 Fountainhead titled “Originator of PRC major ends Study, leaves.” It explains the position changes which he has made. The article recently written about the Parks, Recreation and Conservation Curriculum and my involvement with it has elicited some questions and comments which need attention and which pertain to the following: (1) my leaving ECU and PRC, and (2) my attitude toward “sterile classrooms” and “aca demic conditions present when (PRC) Started.” First, | have resigned from neither ECU nor PRC but have recently been awarded a_ federal grant and consequently will be spending a good deal of time with the Sea Grant Program as well as a lesser amount of time with ECU’s newly formed Institute of Coastal and Marine Resources. Therefore, | have Stepped aside as coordinator of the PRC curriculum, for | cannot simultaneously do justice to all jobs. Next, my seemingly sanctimonious attitude toward “sterile classrooms,” etc. emanates from the manner in which | view the academic world and its various disciplines, as these disciplines relate to the individual student, and from a personal conviction born during my years of supervising practice teachers. It appeared to me that in many Classrooms whole beings were suffocat- ing from an academic diet taken almost exclusively from the cognitive domain and that very little was being accomplished in the psycho-motor and affective domains. Students appeared to be “dying on the vine” from lack of motivation and personal physical involvement in their education. | contend that the cognitive domain can no more be separated from the affective and psychomotor than can applied medicine be separated from the humanities.

The alarm that is ringing is named Carter Suggs. By now everyone has heard East Carolina's track coach Bill Carson has signed Tarboro, N.C. Carter Suggs to an athletic grant in-aid on Wednesday. And everyone has heard Suggs has run two 9.3 100-yard dashes which tie the national high school record But Suggs is much more than this. In 1973 Suggs was a member of the U.S. International Junior Track and Field team. Against Poland, Suggs took the silver medal in the 100-meters and helped anchor the winning 400-meter relay team. The relay time of 39.6 seconds broke the world junior record. Suggs saved his greatest performance for the U.S. versus Russia meet in Odessa, USSR in July. Suggs won three gold medals in winning the 100, 200-meters and as a member of the relay team. Suggs continued to devastate the European sprint scene in Heidenheim, West Germany by winning the 100 and again helping the relay team to victory. Track and Field News named Suggs the High School Sprinter of the Year and he finished second to distance runner Craig Virgin as Athlete of the Year. The accomplishments and records are enormous, but the promise is even more astounding. For Suggs has to be considered a favorite for the gold medal in the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal. And yet after all this, we have learned that Coach Carson had difficulty in getting the money for a scholarship for Suggs from the athletic big wigs. Gentlemen, we are not talking about some All-State fullback that will probably ride ~ the bench for three years before producing, if in fact he ever produces. We're talking about one athlete who can establish this school as the powerhouse of the East in track, and go a long way toward giving ECU a National Championship. Suggs’ running is not his only value. Already two more exceptional athletes have signed with the Pirates, wanting to join the awakening. Larry Austin, a 9.5 sprinter from Jacksonville, N.C. has signed. Austin is one of the few sprinters to beat Suggs last year, as he nipped him in the regionals in a preliminary race. Austin has also run a 6.2 60-yd. dash indoors. Also signing was the state’s premier miler in Mike Cunningham, who has run a 4:20 mile and a 50.0 quartermile. But this is only in North Carolina. May we suggest an effort by the sports publicity department to spread the word outside the state. East Carolina has before it an opportunity for national prominence. Get out and send letters to the national press, not just to the state's newspapers. Send stories to Track and Field News, get the needed attention stirring. Let’s not be satisfied with Southern Conference championships, let’s go after the big one, the NCAA trophy. The groundwork has been laid, it remains for this administration to act. Let’s hope they don’t take after that other famous loafer. Rio Van Winkle. MORE TRACK Olympic gold medalists Rod Milburn and Dave Wottle are rumored to be close to signing with the pro track circuit ITA, the International Track Association. Milburn, the world record holder in practically every hurdle event from 60 yards through 120 yards and 110 meters, is seeking a substantial contract. Enhancing his bargaining position is an offer from thP new World Football League. 800 meter champ Wottle said, “We're still apart as far as money is concerned, but they know I’m interested and | want to get it settled one way or another.” SULLIVAN AWARD Bill Walton, Mr. Everything in college basketball, was named the finest amateur athlete in the U.S. Monday in voting for the prestigous Sullivan Award. Possibly Sports Illustrated captured Walton best in saying, “He just may be the baddest ever.” Olympian Dave Wottle finished second. Past winners include swimmers Mark Spitz and Don Schollander, baskerball’s Bill Bradley and miler Jim Ryun and decathlete Bill Toomey. GOLF This week is the 90-hold Bob Hope Desert Classic. Competing is defending Champion Arnold Palmer, voted by the Associated Press as the Athlete of the 60’s. | know of no other man who imspires that thrill of sport that this broad shouldered gentleman from Latrobe, Penn. The Eisenhower Medical Center gets all the profits from this tournament for research. There’s a legend that Ike, who while in the White House played often with Palmer, watches Arnie tee off on the first tee. If you see Palmer's ball take any funny bounces, you now know why. If you are still skeptical, Palmer has won the tournament five times. WRESTLING Feb. 8 William & Mary Greenville, N. C. 8:00 Greenville, N. C. 8:00 Bold type denotes home games Gridders name coach Wright Anderson, a native of Burgaw, N.C., has been named offensive backfield coach on the staff of new head football coach Pat Dye at East Carolina University. Anderson comes to East Carolina from Wichita State University where he spent one year as a secondary coach. Before moving to Wichita State, he spent four years at Wake Forest under first Cal Stall and then Tom Harper as freshman coach and eventually secondary coach. Anderson played athletics at Burgaw High School and was named alll-conference and all-East in football. He played college football at Elon College before injuries cut short his career and turned him towards the coaching ranks. At Elon, he played quarterback, defensive halfback and single wing tailback. He received an A.B. Degree from Elon College and a Masters in Education from the University of North Carolina. Since arriving at East Carolina, he has recruited heavily in North Carolina and is responsible for the signings of several outstanding prospects including Willie Hawkins from Grimesland, N.C., and BY GUY COX Ronnie Ragland, a Virginia prep player and Ted O'Neill, a junior college tight end from Dorchester, Mass. “This coaching position at East Carolina is a golden opportunity to me,” Anderson says, “because it gives me a chance to return home and also into an established football program with a tradition of winning. The winning is great and the tradition is fairly new so it gives us a chance to really contribute to it.” “When you have an opportunity to work at a major school in a winning program and also under a person like Pat Dye, you can’t go wrong. Working with Coach Dye, because of his great reputation as a coach and as a man, has to make this job a great opportunity.” “Recruiting has been going very well, | think” Anderson continued. “We have been very pleased with the caliber of athletes we've had here. If we can continue to recruit and bulid, there isn’t any reason why the program wan't improve and grow.” Anderson's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Buren Anderson, still live in Burgaw.

All 18 of ECU’s players saw action in the 74-47 victory. Sheilah Cotten and Lu Ann Swain stirred more action in the first quarter than the visiting Camels were able to handle. Swain went up for the first two 4 points of the game and then it was Swain and Cotten alternating br sket for basket. At the end of the quarter ECU was leading Campbell, 20-12. In the second quarter, the Lady Pirates began to relax and enjoy themselves at the expense of Campbell. Cotten ’ displayed her flashy style to the delight of ion the fans by miraculous shooting, driving, on | passing and faking. The defensive finesse : of Frances Swenholt and the offensive power of Swain made everything hang together for the ECU team. At half time it was ECU, 44-27. In third quarter action the Pirate bench took the hardwood. Play was inspired by Swenholt and Charlotte Layton who XOO ANS Ag worked together and were a deadly against the Campbell defense. It was apparent that the Camels were tiring and would not recover. As the horn sounded it was Campbell down by 23 Myra Modlin sparked the fourth quarter play for the Lady Pirates. She scored from almost every spot on the floor and kept the fatigued Campbell team well in line. Ginny Deese made two outside shots look easy as the game ended, ECU-74, Campbell-47. In the fast-breaking game, ECU hit 40 per cent from the floor and 65 per cent from the foul line. High scorer for the game was Cotten with 20 points and Swain with 18 points. Layton contributed 12 points to the Pirates cause while Modlin added eight. ECU had a good night under the boards claiming 49 rebounds. Swenholt was top in this category with 11 grabs for the Lady Pirates. The game against Campbell was the last home contest for the women. They anticipate some rough competition when they travel this week-end to the mountains of North Carolina to play High Point, ASU and Western Carolina. FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 33/7 FEB. wt 5 Cindermen gain honors; gnawed tastaigaasteanaap agente O A OASIS SOO ISIS face OSU, Notre Dame By STEVE TOMPKINS Staff Writer Opposing some of the finest track talent on the East Coast ECU took two firsts and five seconds in a meet in Newark, Delaware Sunday afternoon. The Pirates indoor team competed against William and Mary, Catholic Univ., Delaware and West Virginia in a meet where no team scores were kept. Larry Malone continued his winning ways in the long jump by taking his first 22’ 7 1/4”, and teammate Willie Harvey took second in 225”. Malone exhibited his versatility by jumping 46’3” in the triple jump for second. Art Miller for the second consecutive week cleared 14’6” to win the pole vault. Coach Carson commented on the meet, “We had some good performances. The only real disappointment in the meet was that in the 60-yd. dash we had five different times of 6.3 seconds and we wanted to qualify for the nationals.” (Qualifying time for the NCAA indoor championships is 6.2.) In the 60-yd. dash final, both Ariah Johnson and Charles Lovelace ran 6.3 for third and fourth respectively. BY GUY COX Unhappily for the Pirates, Lovelace pulled a hamstring muscle in the finals and is not expected to compete again until the conference meet Feb. 22-23. Lovelace is the defending corm ference champion in the 440. Gerald Klas broke the school indoor record for the mile in running a 4:11.2. Tom Watson threw the shot 50’2 1/4” for second with Ivey Peacock third in 47’7 1/4”. Arian Johnson ran the fastest quarter mile recorded in the state this year in finishing second in 51.4. His time puts him in first place on the weekly Track and Field Honor Roll published by the Raleigh News and Observer. Carson commented on the 440, “What makes Ariah’s time even better is that he had just finished running a 6.3 60. He had only ten minutes to get ready.” In other events Sam Phillips and Charles Maxey finished third and fourth in 7.5 and 7.7 seconds in the high hurdles respectively. Both Glen Russell and Roy Quick cleared 6’2” in the high jump for third and fourth. And Palmer Lisane ran 1:16.9 600-yd. dash for fifth.

State campus the East Carolina wrestling team methodically mowed down the Wolfpack, 31-3. “Maybe this makes up a little for football and basketball,” quipped ECU's 190 pounder Mike Radford in reference to resounding Pirate defeats earlier in the year at the throngs of State. Despite the overwhelming margin, the Pirates did not give their most inspired performance. “We had a real tough workout yesterday (Monday),” explained coach John Welborn. “The boys were a little sluggish.” Hard workouts will continue as Welborn primes his men for Friday night's home match with William & Mary. “That's the big one,” said Welbom. Jim Blair set the Pirates sailing in the 118 pound bout. His quick moves kept State’s Masaro Williams in a daze, while he registered a convincing 17-3 decision. In the 126 pound weight class, ECU’s Paul Ketchum discovered early that he could take down his opponent almost at will. This helped him win by an 11-6 margin. Milt Sherman started slow as usual in the 134 pound bout, but with a reversal and two near pins in the final period he defeated John Starkey of State decisively, 11-3. The Bucs’ Tom Marriott had no trouble at all withScott Harell at 142. He won 14-5, giving ECU a 13-0 team lead over the Pack. Steve Satterthwaite was defeated by N.C. State’s Charlie Williams, he he fell behind early and was nearly pinned. That 7-2 victory was to be the lone such one for State. Bruce Hall, recovering from a recent illness, won his 158 pound bout by the score of 12-4. At 167, Ron Whitcomb whipped State’s Howard Johnson (no relation to America’s favorite) by a 5-1 margin, although the score doesn’t indicate Whitcomb's dominations of the bout. Pirate captain Bill Hill cranked out an 11-2 win over State foe Robert Buchholz. The only pin of the night was made by ECU's Mike Radford in his 190 pound bout with Toby Atwood. After getting Atwood on his back almost immediately, Radford registered the fall at 1:36. The heavyweight bout between the Bucs’ Willie Bryant and State’s Tom Wiggins provided the only excitement, in o HOT LICKS, COLD STEEL & TRUCKERS FAVORITES the way of controversy, of the evening.
