His purpose was to discover whether the new building wes barrier-free and easily accessible to handicapped persons. By CARL MURPHY and TOM FRANK Staff Writers Two graduate students in the Department of Rehabilitation counseling, Tom Frank and Carl Murphy, recently toured the new Mendenhall Student Center in search of architectural barriers and people's reactions to wheelchairs. ‘How do we get to second floor?” | asked the nigh, manager on duty while | in wheelchair, posed for the duration of the study. “Humm, they never told me het he about that. The only way is to use the elevator; Wait, I'll get the key,” was the receptive manager's reply. Later in the evening, Carl asked the manager: “Well, what if Tom is on the second floor and the fire alarm goes off. Are you going to think of him first?” The night manager thought for a minute and said, “Ya, | guess !'li have to.” Push bottoms on elevators, although not required by law, add to the safety and convenience of handicapped students. “It was my understanding that the elevator would have push buttoms,” said Mr. S. Rudoiph Alexander, Director of the Mendenhall Student Center, “when | found out it wasn't, | sent in a request for it to be changed.” After pointing out that even if buttons were installed in the elevator in place of the key slots handicapped students would not be able to reach them, Mr. Alexander said, “That's a good point. | didn’t realize that.” On the same subject, Mr. James J. Lowry, director of the physical plant, pointed out, The design for the elevator was made under previous administrations, and no change was made from their requests.” OTHER BARRIERS Many other physical barriers, encountered during the study, exist in the building. Floor mats in front of all the entrances are difficult for wheelchairs to overcome, water fountains are too high, telephones are out of reach, the bowling alley is inaccessible, and tables throughout the building are generaliy too low for the arms of a wheelchair to fit under. In the parking lot, the ramp over the curb is too steep for persons in wheelchairs to get over on their own power, and no markings or parking space exists for handicapped persons. Lowry explained, “When the building was being designed, it was stressed that it “ould be free of all architectural barriers that were known at the time (in the fail of 1971). “We went out of our way to do the best we could. Provisions for handicapped parking, access to upper and lower floors of the auditorium (theatre) with room for wheelchairs near the exit door for emergencies, and wide bathroom doors were among the considerations. “One place of great difficulty was the three steps in the bowling alley area. A ramp would have to be so long, that, considering the cost, it couldn't be placed there. However, the steps are wide enough to allow a wheelchair to be manhandied down to HANDICAPPED STUDENTS face obstacies like this every day. The elevator in Menden- hall is locked. In case of a fire, who would hear one student hollering for the key? the alleys.” Thefts high on weekends Police recommen By LEE LEWIS Managing Editor Bicycle thefts continue to be a problem on the ECU campus. We lose two or three a week and up to five or Six a weekend,” Director of Campus Police Joseph H. Calder told Fountain Nead While many bike thefts are the work of individuals, evidence indicates that ECU students may have become the object of organized criminal rings. Bikes stolen at ECU might well find themseives repainted, with serial numbers removed, parts interchanged, and later sold for cut-rate prices on Campuses throughout the state, said Chief Calder. Few discemible patterns exist for predicting where and when bike thieves might strike. The vast majority of bike thefts occur around dormitories and Classrooms with losses occurring equally during night and day. HOURS CITED Prime hours of weekday thefts are from 8 am. to 10 am. and from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. Campus Police estimate half of ali bike thefts occur on the weekends while owners are off-campus. Continued on page ten. Officials warn students to be wary of local high schoo! youths congregating outside dorms and classrooms. Indivi- duals seen on campus with bolt cutters should be reported to police immediately. Several vehicles are wanted § in connection with bike thefts at ECU. They include: an old-model green or blue van, a green pickup truck, and a white Volkswagon van. A standing reward of $25 is offered to persons providing information leading to the arrest and conviction of bicycle thieves at ECU. STIFF FINES Persons arrested for stealing bikes here are charged by campus police and placed in the city jail. According to Chief Calder, bike thieves normally receive harsh punishment from local judges. Recently, a person convicted of stealing three bikes at ECU was fined $500 and placed on probation for three years. Official school policy toward persons convicted of bike theft is determined on a case-by-case basis. Expulsion from school, although pcssible, is not automatic, explained Dean of Men James Mallory. However, any student placed on probation by a court of law is also automatically placed on “continuing probation” by the university. ECU students are encouraged to use several precautions to discourage potential bike thieves. When not in use, bikes should be locked to an immovable object with a good (usually expensive) lock and cable (cables are harder to cut than chains). Smail amounts of spray paint can be used to give a bike unique and readily identifiable markings. BIKE REGISTRATION Above ali, bikes should be registered with the campus police. Bike registration costs 50 cents at ECU. Forms are filled out detailing color, description, and the serial number of each bike. If a bike has no serial number, campus police will attach one free of charge. Authorities caution that, unless a missing bike is registered with the campus police prior to the alleged theft, the chances of recovery are slim. “The best thing to do is to pay the 50 cents,” said Chief Caider. Presently, fifty unclaimed bicycles are d bicycle registration being held by campus police. Bikes continuing to go unclaimed are periodically sold to the public by sealed bid. Students are also advised not to leave bikes on campus during holiday breaks. Campus police currently provide storage space for bike owners during holidays.

These fees are also llected in the summer. This comes to quite a large sum of money for the SGA to carry out this function The entire budget of the transportation system for September ‘74 through May '75 does not exceed $25,000 or just a few thousand more than the revenue collected for transportation for this quarter alone. The remainder of the transportation Money goes into the general fund to be doled out by the legislature to finance worthy projects and organizations Students! If you do not approve of the transportation system as it exists, you shouid contact your representative in the legislature and have him speak out for you. You might even ask him what is happening to the rest of your transportation funds? As individuals the students on this campus cannot possibly keep informed of al! the pros and cons of any function of the SGA, unless one specializes in a single area. A committee of specialists is being formed at this time to study the transportation system as it now exists. Based on their findings, this committee will make recommendations to the legislature concerning constructive changes in the system. Their goa! will be to design the means for a transportation system that serves the needs of the students as well as possible with the funds provided. It is the duty of the iegisiature to implement such a program to achieve this end In the meantime we are saddied with the remains of a lackluster transportation system. Both buses are out of warranty and it seems things are inconveniently happening to add to this image. Many times service on the Eastbrook route has been interrupted due to unforseen maintenance. | am sorry for this inconvenience but maintenance is a necessary reality that must be deait with | do not mean to shed any poor light on the present student government or legislature. The transportation system as it exists was inherited by them. They must dea! with it as best they can. But the transient nature of student government and legisiature is not conducive to efficient running of a transportation service. Something better must be sought for the benefit of future student bodies as wel! as our own. This will be one of the main goais of the committee, to achieve something better for ai! of the Students To the contrary may | say that SGA President, Bob Lucas, and the student legisiature have been exceptionally cooperative in providing needed funds for the buses this year. The driver salary controversy...excepted! Some of the things accomplished so far this year are: expanding routes to include the new Student Union as well as more of the major apartment compiexes in Greenville, establishing permanent readable signs at each bus stop, and printing cards 2 1/2” x 3 1/2" with bus schedules printed on them. Aiso on the tab for the near future is the acquisition of shelters and benches at the most used bus stops, acquisition of AM/FM music system for the buses, and possibly a schedule change based on a survey taken by | the drivers earlier this year The buses do not need all of the transportation funds this year, Lucas and the legislature know this, but neither is the bus system ail that it could be. The SGA has the responsibility of investigating other alternatives. in closing let me mention others who are never heard of, but without their support and cooperation the transportation system would surely fail. The administration of this ampus have never once failed to render service when requested, and during iast years gas shortage made special efforts to supply us with fuel to keep the buses rolling. Our hanks to them. Also, Joe Caulder and the campus police have made many silent concessions such as hotly contested parking spaces for the buses to pick up and deliver students.

Richmond and East Carolina both stand 2-1 in conference play and each team nas two conference games after Saturday's clash. Since V.M.1. has only their game with East Carolina remaining in the conference, Saturday's contest is do-or-die The Pirates are the most prolific team in the conference on offense, scoring an average of 24.5 points a game. They are also the stingiest defensive team in points allowed, allowing an average of only 14.5 points a game. Richmond's defense has been burned for 179 points in seven games, while giving up 353 yards a game. .uee:Which may lead to SC title oe two minutes remained in the fas!

Since “Pbalachian State defeated ECU, someone 42 0 knock off VMI to get the showdown © UD That, Richmond did on Saturday There is a slight hitch to the whole plan. Before the showdown can take piace, East Carolina must win two big games on the road in the Conference. This coming weekend, it's a trip to Richmond Nothing more need be said about that then it's a trip to William and Mary. Two wins, and the showdown will be set for November 23, in Lexington, Virginia While the VMI loss was a big one, the ECU win on Saturday over The Citadei was also a big one. The Pirates rolled to their most impressive win of the year, striking down the Bulldogs 41-21. That marked the final home game for 1974, before a Homecoming crowd. It also marked the final day for 15 seniors to ever play in Ficklen Stadium. Those seniors have gone through their career and never lost a game in Ficklen Stadium; 15 consecutive wins for them at home. The comforts of home are lost for the final three important games, and coach Dye says his team must get some maturity to win “We haven't done well this year on the road,” said Dye. “We lost two of three games. Now, we must mature and start doing the little things right. You know, if we ever play a near perfect game, we're going to be hard to beat. But if we don't stop doing those silly little things (offsides, motion penalities, fummbdles, interceptions) we can’t possibly win our final three games.” Despite the big win on Saturday over The Citadel, the Pirates did give up to many of those little things which allowed The Citadel to get out of the hole on some occasions and to stop ECU on others. The running of fullback Don Schink helped the Pirates to overcome those little mistakes. Schink ran for 144 yards in 21 carries, which ranks as high on the team for this season, as well as Schink’'s career high. For his efforts, the senior got the game bail. While Schink was destroying The Citadel from his fullback slot, Andrew Johnson, the highly acclaimed runner for The Citadel was having problems. John son entered the game with ECU as the nation’s number three rusher, with an average of 136.6 yards per game. Satur- day, Johnson got only 40 yards. his lowest What Saturday's game boils down to is if the Pirates can throw off their lackiuster performance on the road and continue playing like last week. Although V.M.1. still looms as the favorite to take the crown, the team which emerges the winner Saturday should stand the next best chance output of the year. “Our defense did a super job on Johnson,” said Dye. “He's a great, great back; the best we've played against this year To beat The Citadel, to win for Homecoming, to have the seniors never lose in Ficklen Stadium - all those things made Pat Dye and Pirate fans happy on Saturday. But as Dye put it after the game, “To leam that VMI had lost was just icing on the cake fo. a beautiful day.” SOUTHERN CONFERENCE STANDINGS VMI 410 5-30 Appalachian St. 31-0 5-4-0 East Carolina 2-1-0 6-2-0 Richmond 2-10 430 Wm. & Mary 1-2-0 3-5-0 Furman 2-3-0 4-40 The Citadel 1-40 26-0 Davidson 0-20 1-51 CU ase aanataartaignastapasstas gman NIT OI INSITE Rasen ttt te NAB es SSS A 16 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 6, NO. 18/7 NOVEMBER 1974 Swim season opens Thursday at Minges By JOHN EVANS ports Editor he st Carolina swimming team pens its 1974-75 season this Thursday wher they hoid their Purple- Gold tersquad meet at 7-30 ach Ray Schart’s been Soutnern Conterence SAAaSONS nshit swimmers Nave hampions ‘for ast years Senart S SWIIT> tne iast eight ference champk ners wi 1!) eignteen events be another banner year for Scharf anc his gang with solid performers Mike Bretting, Ron Hughes F Larry Green, and 1974-75 promises t Pau!
