This is a period of history when the people moved away from the Church of Engiand and then were permitted by the Act of Toleration to worship as they believed John Wesley founded the Methodist religion. He grew up in the Church of England The Methodist religion was a break from the Church of England but still maintained much f its beliefs RELIGIOUS SURROUNDINGS Wesley's father was a priest, so John grew up in religious surroundings. He was one neteen children. While in school he was known for his compulsive nature. With this nd he set up angid program of study for himself. Together with his brother Charles he wrote poems and hymns. His brother was the author of the well Known “Hark. the Herald Angeis Sing The impetus for the Methodist faith came while he was at Lincoln College in Oxford, England. There he was involved in an organization called the Holy Club. This was a jroup of students on the Lincoln campus who involved themselves in service projects and religious discussion. The Methodist faith stemmed from these discussions he Methodist church has No “body of doctrine’. The faith is interpreted within the framework of its guidelines. The guidelines have had additions made at later times by various Methodist churches FORMATIVE YEARS )rdained as a priest of the Church of England, John decide to become a missionary to America. While a missionary in Georgia he became discouraged in a love affair and engagement to the daughter of the Governor of Georgia. He was subsequently sent back England by the Governor Returning to England, he became discouraged in the Church and become involved in 2 Study group. He went unwillingly to this study group but came to an understanding of the faith while listening to Martin Luther's introduction to the Epistle to the Romans At this meeting he became convinced in his personal message and understanding of the Gospel, and experienced what he calied the “Heart Warming Experience”. It should be pointed out here that prior to this time he was an Anglican priest In Wesley's mind an argument started as to whether the Methodist Church should Stay within the Church of England or separate itself from its influence. Even with this distinction Wesley stil! required any person wanting to preach at his church to be a priest within the Church of England The Methodists Wesley, Coke and Asbury were weighing whether or not to move their faith to America, after Wesley's previously discouraging experience in America. So Coke and Asbury traveled to America. Wesley was opposed to the title of Bishop but the two men ordained themselves as Bishops. This is how the Methodist religion started in America, by the efforts of these two men, under the direction and leadership of Wesley. The history of the Methodist faith in America is a study which concems the growth of a number of different groups within the Church PIRATE SEAFOOD PLATTER 7 Jumbo Shrimp 2 Pcs.Deep Fried Flounder Heaping FF Cole Slaw Tartar and Cocktail Sauce and Butter $1.99 tx..inc.

We finally got it last month in two major scientific reports that support the federal standards for air pollution control According to findings of a year-long study by the National Academy of Sciences, the nation’s most prestigious honorary organization for scientists and engineers, the federal air pollution standards for protecting public health and welfare are still scientificaily valid. And a report by a Federal Power Commission advisory panel warns that if these standards are abandoned, dirty air could kill 25,000 persons in the eastern United States between 1970 and 1980: uncontrolled sulfur oxides emissions during the same period could inflict 4.5 million excess acute respiratory ilinesses on children during the same period To top it off, the NAS study conciudes that the annual monetary benefits of controlling emissions from just automo- biles are at least commensurate with the costs. While the annual costs are expected to range between $2.5 billion and $10 billion, the costs could run from $5 billion to $8 billion. If policy adjustments were made - for example, reiaxing the nitrogen oxides standards - the annual costs could drop to as low as $1.5 billion annually In 1970, Congress enacted extensive amendments to the Clean Air Act. They called for the Environmental Protection Agency to establish safe levels for air pollutants throughout the nation, ie, national ambient air quality standards. Al- though the states were assigned the responsibility of making sure that Stationary sources, such as factories and power plants do not violate the national ambient standards, Congress itself specified the standards for emissions from mobile sources, to be achieved by 1975 Last year EPA granted auto manufacturers a one-year extension on these controls, and, in June, the enactment of the Energy Supply and Environmental Coordination Act lengthened the extension by an additional year On the soundness of EPA's standards, NAS found: “In general, the evidence that has accumulated since the promulgation of the Federal ambient air quality standards by the EPA Administrator on April 30, 1971, supports those standards.” As for the auto emission controls, NAS also supports them with some reservation about whether controls on nitrogen oxide and hydrocarbon emissions adequately prevent the formation and oxidants Photochemical oxidants are formed in the air by a reaction involving NOx and HC in the presence of sunlight The Federal Power Commission report Stated: “Present rough estimates con- clude that substantial excess adverse health effects can be expected each year if Repair all leather Handmade i eather belts, 111 W, 4th St., Downtown Greenville 758-0204 (Clean Air Act) standards are not met — thousands of premature deaths Millions of days of illnesses aMOng Susceptibie Segments of the population, hundreds of thousands of neediess acute lower respiratory illnesses in otherwise Nealthy children, and hundreds of thousands of chronic respiratory disorders among adults.” In response to the pressure of fuel shortages and high prices, the report stresses that conservation of energy could solve major clean air and fuel Shortage »roblems The news isn't all encouraging however. NAS is particularly concemed about the dearth of adequate scientific data in general for both establishing and evaluating air quality and = emissions standards. It urges expanded research efforts in several high priority areas evaluating the health effects of air pollutants throughout a population developing improved data for measuring ambient air Quality, analyzing how pollutants change and interact once in the air, and determining how to relate the effect of pollutants on animals to humans As for the cost/benefit estimates for auto emission controls, NAS cautions that cost/benefit analyses are stil! a very risky business, and its findings should be viewed as highly tentative and subject of a high margin of error. What good is 4 cost/benefit analysis then? Says NAS lt is useful mainly in scaling the importance of this air Quality problem in relation to other problems in our society No such analysis was made for stationary source controls Both studies were prepared by scientists and economists surveying the research and data that presently exists while the 44page FPC report was developed by several federal employees plus private academicians for presentation to the FPC’s technical advisory committee on conservation energy NAS! four-volume report was the result of a year-long study on air quality and auto emissions controls contracted by the Senate Public Works Committee. Upon receipt of the report in a public nearing on Sept. 6, Public Works Chairman Senator Jennings Randolph of West Virginia voiced disappointment that NAS’ work did not deal extensively with the problems of sulfur oxides and particulates. Recent research indicates that sulfates which form from sulfur dioxide in the air are the major threat to human health, rather than SO2 itself. However, due to lack of adequate data, EPA is unable to sé Standards for sulfate controls, and héavy controversy exists in the power industry about the need to prevent sulfate formation by reducing the total volume of SO2 emissions. With the shortages of low sulfur — fuels, Randolph — explained, Congress is under heavy pressure to relax standards ASUTING 2 in the ate the IMAans tes for id not re the Justry ulfate ne of yf low ined relax 18 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 6, NO. 26/16 JANUARY 1975 5 ECU student findsa little ‘comic’ relief as the answer to the cold cruel world By KIM JOHNSON Staff Writer While most Americans sit in their mes and offices worrying about the pressing issues facing us today, one of ECU's history majors placidly sits around his barn reading comic books!

Years ago there was a large forest fire in the upper mountain region. T he forest was practically destroyed. Everything was bumed, including one bear. Smokey, as the bear was named, was bummed to such an extent that the forest rangers were worried about his life Needless to say Smokey miraculously lived and was set up as the National Forest Services symbol. As does every living creature, bears grow old This fact was worrying the Forest Rangers a under the exact same circumstances as great deal. Their problem was solved recently when another bear was found ¢ Smokey “Senior’. Smokey “Junior” has now taken the place of his predecessor in the Washington Zoo. Smokey Sr. has been placed into retirernent in the same zoo. He wil! continue to live there in as happy an atmosphere as it is possible for the National Forest Service to render the way, he has plastic covers for the “valuables” and keeps them in stacks in his barn. So if you are worried about him taking care of your old treasures, rest assured he can do it...and does!

To put this another way, THE REBEL's critics feel that its primary weaknesses are that it fails to serve a substantial number of students. Substantial " jh, that to warrant access to the funds it needs to operate as an individual S feel that, in the best interest of the students and the publication, merging with the BUCCANEER would save money and increase our exposure.

It does not reflect a large enough segment of the student body 2. that it is indulgent in morbidity, the grotesque, etc. thereby reflecting the tastes of a perverted editorship 3. that it does not interest the students enough to merit the funds it receives because of 1 & 2 TAKING REALITIES Let us take the second objection first. The “quality” of a publication such as the REBEL is dependent on two indisputable realities: one, that the quality material must exist, two, that the publication has means to gain access to that material. By “quality we mean material that is informed in the areas of intelligent sensibilities, freshness of expression, and artistic form. It may be said that with such a criteria we would be hard pressed to publish any works at all. However, any editor will realize that only a very few writers will be adept in all three areas and a more realistic view will necessitate ch: ISINg those works which may be characterized by at least one qualitative area of the criteria Even with such pragmatism, the editor will realize that he will only be able to print a limited number of works and that much of the contributions will be rejections. If quality iS sought as an end, this rationale will be hardly surprising With the problem of access we approach a different complex of difficulties. Many very talented writers are timid with their works, gun-shy of editorial criticisms and, in light of these two factors, keep their works withdrawm from publication. Others are arrogant to the extent that they feel editorial suggestions are an insult to their “masterpieces” and will not stoop to submit them to a mere paltry thing such as East Carolina's literary magazine. Others are simply unaware of our existence, our function or both. Such devices as literary contests, poetry workshops, and increased press coverage should eliminate these difficulties Again, the quality of a publication will fluctuate according to the conditions stated above. Many of the difficulties are beyond any editor's control. It is a certainty that a publication which strives towards quality will find itself on uneven ground simply because it is the most unpredictable of factors. Yet, assuming the quaiity is there, the problem of what form it is to take and how it is to be distributed remains. Here we enter into the first question we postponed and the light it brings to bear on the quantity and funds for a given publication The primary objection in terms of quantity consists in the opinion that the REBEL fails to reach a majority of students. The reply to this charge is, in all honesty, that it is not designed to reach a “majority” of students. We have recognized that many students find themselves alienated from such things as poetry, fiction, and other artforms. Every- one simply isn't interested in such endeavors. In response to this, the REBEL has limited the number of copies it prints to its approximate readership, based on the past distribution totals. This puts our reading audience at approximately 4,000 students Since the quality of the REBEL is an unpredictable factor and the quantity is roughly in line with its reading audience, why, it may be asked, is such a merger proposed by the SGA legislature? The question is difficult to answer save in monetary terms. Yet, the enrollment has increased and the SGA now controls more student funds than in the past few years when the REBEL was publishing three issues a year at an approximate cost of $6,000 an issue. The question that might be put to the SGA legislature is this: as the Student publications waste away or are merged out of existence, what will happen to the money saved? Are there new projects into which the money will be channeled to directly benefit the students? If so, what are they? We have heard that approximately $75,000 worth of students funds went unused last year by the SGA. It would seem that the SGA has some explanations to offer the students in terms of where all the money saved from such mergers will be going TO EACH, ITS OWN Aside from the question of funds, each publication has its own persona. The FOUNTAINHEAD has its own purposes and functions and executes them in its particular manner. The BUCCANEER likewise. Whatever the REBEL would hope to achieve in terms of its layout, design, and the themes it wishes to explore would be engulfed by the overall bulk of the BUCCANEER. Obscured by the vast number of pages picturing social groups and events, faculty and students, and individual persona of the REBEL would perish - its effects blunted - its power all but extinguished. Prior to my resignation, it was becoming quickly obvious that this concept of merger was fast gaining momentum. In lieu of what might happen to the original concept of the REBEL, | decided to resign the position on the premise that | might be able to be more beneficial on the outside rather than directly involved with the publication. Coupled with this was my realization that | could not defend the REBEL against its critics and st!!! maintain enough time and energy to produce the quality publication expected of ) experience. For these reasons, | decided to remove myself from the center {0 the periphery of the controversy. Such were my motivations To conciude, it would be proper to consult the student body prior to any om ill-conceived juggling of publications guised in the form of merger. These are student publications whose fate should not be left in the hands of legislators who seek 10 transform them, regardless of the reason, without proper cause directed by the democratic system.

We also plan to have a President's Forum Tuesday, January 21, 1975, Bt 3:00 p.m. in room 221 of Mendenhall Student Center. The President's Forum is a meeting of all presidents or chairmen of ali campus rganizations. These include all campus clubs, service, professional and honorary rganizations, fraternities, sororities, W.R.C., M.R.C. and other interested groups. The purpose of Tuesday's Forum will be twofold. First we plan to discuss maior SGA programs that have been in operation this year. These include: The Transportation System, Union of Student Body Presidents, Academic Affairs, Consumer Protection and Publicity. We will also outline some future programs and get your opinions on these. pecond, we would like to hear you or your ciub’s ideas, complaints or suggestions on any matter concerning Student Government. The President's Forum can be effective only with your cooperation. The body could act as a clearing house for new ideas. The members can better represent their clubs by expressing interest in programs that would benefit them. Finally, the Forum can Sirengthen ties between campus organizations and the SGA by eliminating isunderstandings that might exsist. The importance of this meeting cannot be stressed enough.

Vengefulrape victim gets 2nd degree By LINDA CAYTON (iF) A few months ago, Inez Garcia, a California woman, was attacked and raped. After the attack, Ms. Garcia hunted the rapist down and killed him. Last month she was convicted of his murder. Ms. Garcia's conviction for second degree murder hinged on the fact that she suffered the attack, then followed the man and killed him, rather than defending herself during the attack. As she made no police report, there was, according to the court, no legal proof of rape. Neither was there medical proof. By the time Ms. Garcia submitted to an examination, no physical traces of rape remained. At the trial, the judge forbid any testimony pertaining to the rape as provocation for Ms. Garcia's crime. She was left with no defense. The taking of a life is never excusable. But there are many ways of violating a life, and for many women, rape, not murder is the supreme violation. In its decision the jury indicated that it might have been lenient if Inez Garcia had acted “in the heat of passion” and not premeditated a murder. Such a conclusion indicated how ill-equipped the legal system is to handle the victimization of women who have been raped. The passion of a woman who has been raped never dissipates Rape is the total total dehumanization of a woman, a intrusion on her self, her deepest being. The jury was mistaken if they believed the passion eft Inez Garcia when her rapist finished witn her. Laws are made and enforced by man. Men cannot be raped and will never understand what it does to its victims. As a result, a miniscule number of rape convictions are handed down by the courts. In most cases, complaining victims of rape are themselves treated like criminals, interrogated and bullied about their sexual histories, and often accused of provoking rape if their lifestyles are less than traditional. | don't find it surprising that Ms. Garcia didn’t trust in the judicial system for relief. She must have known that a trial of her rapist would likely not have resuited in a_ satisfactory outcome, and would probably have involved her in a degrading personal attack as the comerstone of the man's defense, tantamount to a second rape. If anybody doubtsthat the system is weighted, consider the remarks of a juror who voted for Ms. Garcia's murder conviction: “He was not trying to kill her,” the man explained about the rapist, “he was just trying to screw her and give her a good time.” “When | leave here, I'll have less fear of raping a woman than | did before.” The defeat of the Equal Rights Amendment would be a defeat for women. The opposite however, is not true. Pas- sage of the ERA will be no victory fc women. The Equal Rights Amendment has bee an issue since the 1920's when it was fir introduced in the U.S. Congress.

This position was taken over by the former keyboardist of Refugee, Patrick Moraz. From here it was the completion of 4 world tour and the beginning of their new album, RELAYER A small personnel change as such is thing new to this established ensembie f Yes in 1968, they nave gone through five such changes with nce the beginning ¢ f them effecting the sound jrasticaily.

The suc- cess this attempt was followed by another equal show with the album TIME AND A SWORD. sits diversity pulled Yes qto a very promising category known as the Owing year ‘ A DREAM By JEFF ROLLINS Staff Writer August Strindberg's “A Dream Play though masterfully written, suffers from the same impotence as do most other existential works. Though Strindberg skillfully reflects the vicissitudes, disappointments and pains of life, he fails to gather from these experiences any essential lessons. Strindberg possesses all of the abilities of a great playwright except one, and that is the ability to leave us with the feeling that we have been Jeeper into life than we do daily Many of the techniques Strindberg uses to indicate the grand scope of his Subject are superb. He is an artist with wide, bold strokes. The Stage is often unlit except for candles, and at other times the cast floods the Stage with sound and action. However Strindberg occasionally over does himself. The length of the play 'S enough to suggest the lence of this Playwright Strindberg three hours ‘ yf lassical approach to modem rock music The next major event in the history of Yes was the departure of guitarist Peter Banks who according to Anderson, ‘was more interested in his. clothes than his music’. This gap was soon filled completely by classically trained guitarist Steve Howe who also proved to be an exceptional writer as well. His influence was felt deeply on their following album, THE YES ALBUM’ held by some critics as being the best Yes production to date. At this point, Yes began 1s first: American tour which was mostly accompanied by neadiiner Ten Years After. However, ironical this combination may seem, Yes did acquire a respectable audience. With many new followers, they decided to plan another American tour, but not before he unscheduled departure of keyboardist Tony Kaye. His leaving the group was partly due to his over anxious desires to play only organ where other keyboards were desired. This brought about the addition of Rick Wakeman from. the Strawbs. H's apparent abilities on every available ke, «ard instrument made his ve appearances something ncomparable at the time.

CLOSE TO THE EDGE was the album and some felt it was too close for comfort. It was a definite change in musical sound and jirection.

He was shortly replaced for an upcoming tour by PLAY: suf calls for masterful directing, and unfortunately Director Tom Maney seemed to have had a week hand in coalescing the blocking and the dialogue. On this larger than usual stage many of the lines are lost either because the actors are too far away from the audience, or because their lines were obscured by lesser action. Strind- berg’s technique of having the main action on one side of the stage and the rest of the cast milling around on the other side is meaningful, but comes off blurry in this production. Occasionally the blocking is ridiculously bad Strindberg as the choreographer Strindberg as the painter. and Strindberg as the sensitive, aware artist j< However, Strindberg as a thinker leaves much to be Yes sound splendid writer and jesired The play 1S tiresomely repetitious.

He supposedly took over the job in less than three days. A world tour followed and the live recording of YESSONGS which was also soon released. This three album set was a perfect representation of the Yes sound since THE YES ALBUM. With a clear change in sound, TALES FROM TOPERGRAPHIC OCEANS became the new Yes advancement and was a little bit too far gone for most former fans. It was another conceptual album but this time it was four sides of it. Supposedly the ‘story of life’, it was criticized right and left for its complexity although the musical quality and perfection were still there. Wakeman later publicly admitted his disappointment with the new album and decided to leave Yes in search of a solo career which was very promising with two solo albums already released From here Yes was left without keyboards again. Patrick Moraz was then employed from Refugee. Having authoreu 29 film scores, Moraz shows much talent and versatility despite the position he has filled. Filling in left over spots seems to be this Swiss musician's main job. When ceith Emerson left the Nice to join forces with Greg Lake and Car! Palmer, Moraz was the replacement for him in a new band made up of former Nice members Brian Davison and Lee Jackson. This was later known as Refugee. Now with the departure of Wakeman, he is replacing another keyboard idol Now RELAYER is the most recent contribution by Yes with their musical deas expanded again in the complicated direction. Refusing to listen to the critics they have repeated the same style shown in CLOSE TO THE EDGE and TALES. |: iS a promising direction and they seem content with this style The album itself is based upon an idea of Anderson's on war and peace. Side one is basically the concept dealing with this topic. Titled “Gates of Delirium’, it contains segments of music similating a song about a war, the actual battle and ; peaceful ending which oper holds @ reawakening of future peacet moments It assumes the probable attitude of Yes tc the fears we have of war The music itgai begins very similar to most trad tional Yes pieces with confusion being eventually brought together into one central theme Here the turbulent sounds develop into solid vocals which inturm bring forth the sounds of Howe's recognizable SOUNd on the guitar. From here it develops into an obvious battle scene characterized py cymbal crashes and taped effects which is topped by the background muff ing of bombs. Eventually the piece finds jitsel! again, ending with some soft lyrics and developing into a simple but fast ng melody, peacefully floats into tota silence “Sound Chaser’ begins the second side. It brings back memories of the TALES FROM TOPERGRAPHIC OCEANS sound and is mostly characterized by fast piano riffs at the beginning and dominating percussion. Guitar is late emphasized and the ounter voca melodies show a “We Have Heaver tendency. The last song on the album, “To Be Over’ shows the more mellow emphasis with the dominating point. Sitar and steel guitar contain much of the melodies with tne final segment held by the complete band as orchestration Obviously Yes has stepped into a new realm of music where they seem openly satisfied. While little acclaim may come from today's rock critics, in the future they will ‘Ook back and realize that truly Yes nas put together many lasting sounds an musical ideas that will remain.

Because the sailors cry to much.’ Strindberg paints his picture of life in nopeless, defeated colors. Man refuses to accept that “Indra” is the “riddle of life.” Strindberg describes well the unbeliever’s position on earth. Black comedy pervades throughout the play, especially — in Strindberg's interpretation on the Impossibility of escape from unhappiness in a bad marriage Strindberg's handling of the intel- lectual issues raised in the play leave us with a big ho-hum.

The best bets at replacing Williams and Blair are Judd Larrimore. at 177-pounds, and Jeff Curtis at the 118pound weight. Both are Tom Marsh is not your typical college ilete of today. The way in which Marsh 0! into basketball, what has happened to hin & then, and the way he does joes not add up to your normal Ollege athlete Marsh did not play varsity high ONOO| basketball until his senior year ever played basketball until the Sight grade,” said liarsh. “I could never Make a team, | was Cut in the tenth grade.” SO it was intramural basketball for Marsh until his senior year, when his basketbal| career took a positive tum When | was a senior, | was just playing with the guys and the coach saw me and aSked me to go out for the team.” ' did and | played as the last man on the squad until near the end of the year,” Said Marsh. “In the last five games | did Teal wel| _ Indeed, he did. Marsh was one of the ‘ale season leaders which led Walt Whitmar High School of Bethesda, Maryland to a second place finish in the ouviand AA basketball championships | Their way to that distinction, Walt Whitman deteated Springbrook, the alma mater of another East Carolina player, u22y Braman, for the Montgomery yh f A) Williams has been doing great for us and showed great promise until he got hun in the Maryland Federation tournament.’ said Welborn. “It's hard to tell how long he will be out Welborn said Williams’ injury and the possibile weight problems of Jim Cox at the 177-pound level weakens the team, but he also felt the team woudi survive Welborn added, “Another injury could really put us in trouble In the starting line-up for the Bucs Friday night will be four freshmen and a sophomore, a lot of inexperience for any team. Welborn said, however, the team should be able to beat Appaiachian because the Mountaineers, too, have been hurt by injunes this year Prior to the holiday break, We!born's troops made several positive strides toward reaching a national ranking, which so far this year has eluded the team. The team won two big dual meets, defeating West Chester, 30-12, and Cal Poly, 22-16, on the same day The win over Cal Poly was an especially big win for the Bucs. Cal Poly is ranked eleventh in the nation and has beaten two ranked squads, number eight-ranked LeHigh and number six ranked Clarion State On the fact East Carolina has not been ranked this year, Welborn commented he felt this was “unfair ‘We have not been mentioned in the top 20 this year, although we beat Cal Poly, who beat the sixth and eighth ranked teams. the highest we were ranked last year was 18th The Cal Poly meet went down to the final match when Mike Radford and Willie Bryant won the two top weight classes by falls to turn around the meet Those talis were really big fal's for Marsh:athlete From Bethesda and Whitman, Marsh made the trip south to East Carolina It was not a recruiting trp, but just a trip to look at the school | was never recruited to play basketball," said Marsh. ‘| just came nere because | wanted a bigger school and | hated the cold weather.” From then on, the events in Tom Marsh's life have changed in many ways. A bad knee, a new outlook about studying, a shy social life... these have ail led to a different way of life for Marsh | decided to go out for freshman tryouts here at ECU,” explained Marsh. “I made the team and was one of the ge the season ended, Marsh was the team’s best rebounder, best shooter, and top scorer, but he failed to win the MVP award for the freshman team, an award felt Marsh deserved ace Quinn gave me 4 partial scholarship my sophomore year | was tenth man on the team the first game, but got in the game and scored 15 points But, Marsh's sophomore year would be a onegame season With about four Continued on page twelve. us. Had we not won by fall, the meet would have been a tie.” Other winners against Cal Poly were Dan Monroe (126), Tom Marriott (142), Ron Whitcomb (167). In his match, Whitcomb beat the National College Division champion, Cliff Hatch, by an 8-4 decision Monroe swamped his opponent, 17-2, fora valuable superior decision. Against West Chester, the wrestlers continued to roll with a 30-12 win. Marriott, Whitcomb, Radford and Bryant repeated as winners, while Jim Blair (118), Roger Burns (158) and Jim Cox (177) also won their matches. Cox, Radford, and Bryant teamed up for three consecutive falls to sweep the Pirates to victory. Up to that point, the meet was tied at 12-12. In the Maryland Federation Tourna ment, the wrestlers came up with two firsts and four seconds in a nine-team field. More importantly, the team took the meet with a total of 104 points. Second place Cleveland State had 86 1/2 points. TOM MARSH stretches for a rebound in an early season game against UNC-W. Lary Hunt (35] hustles over to offer assistance. The winning Bucs were Monroe at 120 and Radford at 190. Tom Marriott, undefeated going into the toummament, iost his first match of the year. It was a one-point decision to NCAA champion Dan Muthier. Pau! Osman, Whitcomb and John Williams were the other second-place finishers for the Bucs. Paul Ketcham finished third at 134-pounds. After the maryland toummament, the team took a break for vacation, a different practice from the previous years when they entered in the Wilkes Open, and returned home. Coach Welborn feels the rest will heip the team. “In the long run, | feel the break will help us,” said Welbom. “It gave the guys a chance to rest and get away from it ail for awhile.” : When Appalachian State comes to Greenville Friday night, the “matmen of Minges” will be waiting for them, attempting to keep their three year string intact.

Whatever was jecided was it Hunter pointed out that he had stil! not been paid the $50,000 which Finley was supposed to pay to the insurance company He still has not paid me the $50,000 yet,” said Hunter. “He was supposed to be paid October 2, but | still have not received the money.” Following arbitration, Hunter was wooed and courted by practically all the major league baseball teams, with the exception of the Athletics There were about five or six teams which | wasn't sure who to go with, but the Yankees were closer than the rest to home, and that was an advantage.” The other teams which Hunter said had 1 good shot at him were: the Pittsburgh Pirates, Montreal Expos, San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals and the Texas Rangers Wher egotiatior with the teams tarted Hunter said he and his lawyers just iyexd the egotiations t y @ar tidn't Know what they would offer aid Hunter. “We just laid out what we bye ight we wanted.

You al! work for money and so do the ballplayers. I'll piay as long as they pay me.” After discussing his recent signing, Hunter took time to compare his future team with his new team and some of his teammates on the Athletics ‘The big thing about the Oakland players is that they speak their piece, that iS why they have so many fights,” said Hunter. “But when they put on their uniforms, they only have basebal! on their minds.” On Reggie Jackson “Reggie could be better than he is.
