Progress madeonGreenville mall By JIM ELLIOTT The sickening stench of exhaust fumes and noisy, hazardous crosswalks will soon be only a bad memory for pedestrians in one area of Greenville’s Central Business District. A project begun this summer by the Urban Redevelopment Commission will transform Evans St. between Fifth and Fourth St. into a mall -- people allowed, cars not. It will be garnisned witn river birch trees, yaupons, junipers, myrtles, azaleas, and other seasonal flora. Instead of greasy, unattractive black asphalt, except where Fourth St. crosses the surface of the two block mall, will be laid with hexogonal red brick ‘pavers’. Situated in each block will be three planters with built in benches, a covered gazebo with seating for about 30 pers ns, lighting provided by colonial type fixtures with frosted glass inside. Ideas for a mall in downtown Greenville came largely from a similar project in Fountainhead meeting Monday An organizational meeting for FOUNTAINHEAD will be held Monday, September 8th beginning at 3 p.m. in the Fountainhead office in the new pub center, Old South Cafeteria. Any person interested in working for the paper this coming year are invited to attend. FOUNTAINHEAD Editor Mike Taylor will be present from 3 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. taking applications from persons interested in a job. Taylor noted that several editorial positions are open as well as spots for staff writers and production personnel. FOUNTAINHEAD staffers are paid for their services with salaries ranging from $40.00 per month for staff writers to $85.00 per month for editorships in various departments. Salisbury, Maryland. The situation in Salisbury is much like that in Greenville, that is, small college town with a decaying downtown shopping district, according to T.1. Wagner, project manager for Greenville’s Mall. “And when_ skeptical downtown Greenville merchants visited Salisbury to see the mall there and talk to area merchants, negative opinions changed 180 degrees,” said Wagner. The Director of the Dept. of Public Works in Salisbury, Philip C. Cooper, commenting on the mall there said, “We consider this plaza to be a major forward step in the revitalization of downtown Salisbury and one which grew out of desperation but developed into a definite asset to the city of Salisbury and one to which we all point with pride.” These projects have attracted the interest of several towns in the nation. In 1971, 25 malls had been built within the previous ten years and another 48 were either under construction or definitely planned. The large majority of these malls are being financed in part by the federal government as urban renewal projects. In teh case of Salisbury however, the local merchants themselves got the ball rolling and eventually the mall was built with local money. As for Greenville, fed money accounts for 75 per cent of the $425,000 total cost of the mall’s construction. The remaining 25 per cent is coming from local tax revenues - a great deal in the form of utility and street services provided by the city. The scheduled completion date is the day before Thanksgiving. Symbolically and realistically tnere could hardly be amore appropriate season for the mall to make its debut in Greenville. In the first place, CBD businessmen seem in unanimous approval of the mall as evidenced by opinions given at public hearings sponsored by the Redevelopment Commission before the project began. Secondly, pedestrians and shoppers strolling in that area ot town will certainly have to appreciate the new tranquility—- care of autos IN ABSENTIA. Finally, with the approaching Christmas shopping season Greenville can determine whether the mall was a wise business investment. The obvious humanistic and asthetic benefits are foregone conclusions. Out-of-state tuition increased Welcome back out-of-staters, your tuition has increased only $100 per year. The N.C. General Assembly approved legislation increasing tuition for out-of- state students $100 for two semesters or three quarters in N.C. state-supported colleges. This increase will apply to all out-of-state students in tax-supported institutions, said Julian R. Vainright, assistant to the ECU Business Manager. “We don’t know at this point how graduate students will be affected, or whether communitv colleges will be affected,” said Vainright. “This increase will be applied to a three-quarter academic year and did not affect this summers tuition, though the possibility exists that there may be some effect on next year's summer sessions.” Fees for summer sessions are determined by the institution and not by the N.C. legislation. No uniformity of tuition charges existed in the university system until 1971. In that year the N.C. General Assembly established a base of $1300 for out-of-state students attending five year and doctorate granting institutions. In 1972 the tuition was increased to $1800 for out-of-state students. “We don’t think the increase will cause much loss in student enrollment, but this is a supposition on our part,” Vainright said. Housing shortage exists By TOM TOZER The housing situation is critical all across America. College towns are the hardest hit. Greenville is no exception. For any one looking for a place to live, on campus housing is out of the question. All dormitories were filled several weeks prior to school opening. According to Jose E. Diaz, resident manager of Stratford Arms Apartments on South Charles, there is no crisis. “This housing crisis is only temporary,” said Diaz. “By the end of October, we will have vacancies. “Greenville is experiencing a big influx of people at one time, both students and working people. The past three Septembers have all been the same. “We are renting to students more this year. 16 to 20 per cent of our clients are students as compared to only 8 to 12 per cent in the past. “What Greenville really needs is a new apartment complex that caters to single people.” Village Green Apartments off Tenth St. are filled. 75 to 80 per cent of the people living there are students. “I don't even keep a waiting list,” said Mike Wall, resident manager at Village Green. “By the end of the quarter there will be ten or 11 openings. “September is the only month we are completely filled. Every other month there are vacancies. “My advice to students looking for a place to live is to beat on doors,” said Wall. “Sometimes people planning to leave in September won't tell me, knowing I'd ask them to leave at the end of August.” Eastbrook Apartments are run by Grace Langley. She blames the tight housing on something besides more new freshmen. “Students have to compete with working people drawn to Greenville by companies such as Eaton and Proctor and Gamble,” said Langley. “We have people living here who work for DuPont in Kinston. “Our wanting list is pretty long, but by the first of October we should have some Openings.” Gerry Cox, resident manager at Tar River Estates, has some advice for students looking for a place to lice. “The apartment business if funny, we never know in advance when we will have an opening,” said Cox. ‘Best thing to do is keep checking.”’ Tar River Estates are also filled and expect some vacancies by the first of November. State tickets Tickets for all East Carolina away games, including this Saturday's game with North Carolina State, are now on sale at the Mendenhall ticket office and the Athletic Ticket Office in Minges Coliseum. Student ticxets may be purchased at half price, with the exception of the Virginia game, with a current activity card and student |.D. Tickets for the N.C. State game will be $4.00 for students and $8.00 for the general public. al mon stud Hone retur thous of cle SGA Engre factu stude back. stude perioc for a | Hone justify mini studer SUND/ inform: The c fall will r 20. but Director number 11,500.

The SGA reached a settlement with Star Engraving Company, the ring manu- facturers in February of 1975, but no plan was forwarded until now as to how students would get the excess monies back. The SGA will send form letters to all students possibly overcharged during that period including directions of how to apply for a rebate. “Not everyone was overcharged,” said Honeycutt, “but enough people were to justify the steps we've taken. The minimum rebate will be $7, and some students will receive more than that.” According to the SGA, the letters will ad be sent to the last known address of the student. Also, the SGA will publish ads in various publications such as the Alumni Bulletin to get this information to as many studenis as possible. “We will keep this program open for three years,” said Honeycutt. Joseph Clark, Student Supply store manager discovered the price dis- crepancies between fees charged and monies received by the company when the supply store took over management of sales records in early ’75. It seems a company employee was overcharing students in the sale of class rings. According to Honeycutt, the scheme worked because “when the rings were being sold, the price of gold was fluctuating.” Since the value of the rings was hard to determine, the pricing could be increased wrongfully without detection.

Enrollment expected to increase this fall By TOM TOZER The official enrollment figures for this fall will not be announced until September 20 but according to Robert Ussery, Director of Institutional Research, the number of students should be around 11,500. This figure is up from last year’s enrollment of 11,341. “We don't release any official numbers .to the media until after Registration and Drop-Add is over,” said Ussery. “Our calculations are turned over to the Registrar and released through the ECU News Bureau. Dean of Admissions, Dr. John H. Horne, closed all under graduate programs July 1. No new applications for admission were accepted after July 2. “There are many reasons for our increased enrollment this year,” said Horne. “The decrease in the number of jobs has turned more people towards See Enroliment, page 7. aware of the price discrepancy as many ring companies work through private agencies. Upon checking the record Mr. Clark discovered the charge discrepancies of ring sales for 1973. Negotiations between the SGA and Star Engraving Co. resulted in a settlement in early 1975 of approximately $1500 to be returned to about 100 students, according to Honeycutt. Further investigation showed con- tinued overcharging in 1974. This discovery led to another settlement of $4500 to 900 students. Total negotiations led to a final settlement of $5,968 for aproximately 1000 students, according to SGA calculations. The negotiation meetings were attended by Mr. Clark, Dr. James Tucker, Dean of Student Affairs; Mr. C.G. Moore, Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs; an agent of the ring company and the SGA president. “About half of those meetings took place before | was president,” stated Honeycutt, “so Bob Lucas (past SGA president) deserves credit for much of the successful negotiations.” While school officials were present, the actual give-and-take was to be between the SGA and Star Engraving. “The school administration gave me much _ helpful advice in getting this settlement,” said Honeycutt. Ring sales will be conducted this fall by the Student Supply Store, which has a contract with a new company The task of handling the rebates will begin in early September when SGA will send out the letters. “September is a hectic month as it is,” said Honeycutt, “so we ask all students to be patient with us. Those who receive letters or who are entitled to a rebate should send a stamped self-addressed envelop to Student Government, P.O. Box 2456, ECU, and allow us 90 days to get the check to you.” Refugee family settles in Greenville By GARY WONG Staff Writer Nguyen Van Vang, his wife, Thi Du and their four chidlren became the first refugee family of Vietnamese descent to reside in the city of Greenville. Nguyen’s first experience as a refugee came about when he was twelve years old. He and his family left his home of BuiChu located in North Vietnam and moved to Saigon. He married in Saigon, but his attempt to find apeacefullife there was to no avail. A few short years of living in South Vietnam came to an abrupt end when in April, the winds of chaos engulfed his native land. The long and wearisome road from Saigon to Greenville was Nguyen’s second flight as a refugee,andhis family’sfirst. Nguyen and his wife have four small children, two sons - eight year old Duc Dung, and two year old Duc Tri. Their two daughters, six year old Thuy Hong and four year old Thi Dung. St. Gabriel’s Catholic Church are the sponsors for Nguyen and his family. Father Hugh Charles Mulholland of St. Gabriel’s has worked extensively as a director in providing for the family's personal comfort. “There is a tremendous need for sponsors of refugee families in this area,” Father Mulholland explained. ‘The opportunity to sponsora refugee family is not as complex as you might think” he added. Clearly enough, after a few short weeks of waiting for papers and documents to be processed, Nguyen and his family first arrived in Guam and then on to Fort Chaffee in Arkansas. Greenville, N.C. was to be their final destination on August 4, 1975. Nguyen is temporarily employed here in the city at Carolina Leaf Warehouse. He has high hopes that he will soon find employment parallel to that of his previous work experience in administration. During the last five years in Saigon, Nguyen’s major responsibility was serving as a liasson between the South Vietnamese provinces and the American Embassy. The significance of his perserveringwork in Office Administration Management enabled him to come to America. “They explained to me for the future welfare of my family, that it would be best if | was to leave from Saigon. His wife, Thi Du was employed in a pharmacy within the city of Saigon for almost four and a half years. Neither she, nor her four children are able to speak the English language. Nguyen speaks rather well for his background training but admits it is quite difficult at times for him to express his sincere appreciation and admiration for the people of Greenville. He explained it was hard for him to accept such charity from so many good people in the area and expressed his own desire to be self-supporting for his family Nguyen also spoke of his determin- ation to fine a more permanent job. At 33 years of age, he is still reminded of a universal problem - the search for permanent employment. The reminiscence of his parents left behind in Saigon brought about a very quiet manner of speaking in Nguyen. His father suffered from a leg injury shortly before Nguyen and his family were to make their flight to America. “| did not have the strength to carry him (his father) and my son on the many miles of our journey. | See Viet Family, page 7.

Lommmupnmie A pga DIE, ) Sgt P and t Wi Editorials‘SCommentary Paper reflects new ideas It is a new year with a new Fountainhead staff with what we hope is a new way of looking at the student publication game. That new attitude towards student publications is reflected in this first issue of the “twice weekly astonisher”. To begin with, this issue of Fountainhead is the biggest every assembled -- perhaps the biggest paper ever published by a student newspaper organization at ECU. In these 44 pages we have assembled the best advertising package ever put together for this student publication. Bargains and special offers are available to the student. In addition to offering studenis a thorough shopping guide, some 44 pages of advertising offers the student a good financial return. Over 1,000 inches of paid advertising can be found in this edition. And, at the going rate of $1.65 per column inch at least $1650 in revenue can be realized from this issue. The advertising is important from both the dollars-cents standpoint and as part of Fountainhead’s duty to the students. A newspaper must provide for its readers both the necessary information on happenings of the day, (i.e. news), and the many buying tips and leads as possible (i.e. ads). During this coming year we hope to put more emphasis on the advertising side of the paper—something that all professional publications must do. And, with that we introduce the goal we are really shooting for...to be as much a professional publication as possible. Webster defines the professional as one who “manifest fine artistry or workmanship based on sound knowledge and conscientiousness.” That sounds lofty and high-minded enough. And, needless to say there wii! be times thiscoming year that we miss that mark. Hopefully, you will let us know when that happens. But, it is a goal. Something that we strive for in each issue. One thing that a professional does is be open minded about most situations. And, that is the way we look at news we put in the paper. We will print practically anything that is not libelous or simply pornographic. And, that leaves the field pretty much wide open. Through the paper we hope to give you only the facts. In news stories we will only tell it like it was told to us. Maybe the story will still be tilted one way or the other but remember--that is the way it was told to us. It will then be our duty to find out about the other side. If you want to know the facts read the news stories. If you want a few opinions then tum to editorials. Only on pages four and five will we throw anything at you but facts. And, even there we use facts. But, at the same time the editorial policy of a paper must be open to all ideas — Based on fact or fiction. We may disagree with your idea but we will give you enough room to at least express it. Editorially, the Fountainhead is gagged to a certain point in that editorial policy dictated by the Publications Board does not allow us to formally endorse candidates for office. A bad restriction we think. But, the rest of the field is wide open to support any cause—at least any cause that we can legally back-up. So, we plan on giving the students as active and aggressive editorial policy as possible. You don’t want to read an editorial supporting motherhood, apple pie and the American flag. And, we sure as hell don’t want to have to write anything on that line. Hopefully we will stimulate you some. Get you to think both about this university community that you have such a stake in and the community outside the parameters of Fifth and Tenth Streets. A managing editor once had a sing plastered on his office wall that read -- “It is a newspaper's job to print the truth — And raise hell.” If we could pick a motto for the year we would have to go with that one. Like we said a few inches back at the top of this wandering creation, it is a new year. So, make it a good one. And we promise-This is the last editorial supporting motherhood, applepie and the American flag.

The state legislature reduced the education budget and we did not receive as many new positions as hoped for. “The state allots teaching positions on Full Time Equivalency (FTE), not on the actual head count. This means that an undergraduate must take 12 hours or more to count as one student.” Ussery echoed the importance of the FTE. “We are already budgeted for this year on our full time estimated average annual enrollment. The enrollment projection is based on past history. “The General Assembly approves one lump sum to be used by the Board of Governors for all state college institutions. This year the sum was not as large as requested. The Board of Governors had to scale down the money among the state colleges.

They do not have many years to live. | hope | will see them again one day.” Nguyen and his family live at 115 Oakdale Street. St. Gabriel's Church secured their house for them. In Saigon, Nguyen elaborated on the “closeness” of the houses. He was happy to see trees and foliage in his backyard. “It is like a wilderness.” he said, “a small jungle.” Further into the evening, Nguyen talked of his children’s eagemess to enter public school. He hopes that his 6 year old daughter will be ale to enter first grade instead of being placed in kindergarten because of her language barrier. Nguyen also commented on his wife’s difficulty in such a great transitory change. Even as a housewife now, she is somewhat limited to the newness of it all. He noted they seldom ate sandwiches, but alluded to other mainstays such as vegetables, rice and some meat items. Of special importance was the serving of fish with “Nuoc Mam” a type of fish sauce which seems to be a household word in his native land. Nguyen was seemingly overwhelmed by the graciousness of his neighbors in supplying his family with fresh fruits, especially watermelons. He recalled one incident where a neighbor offered him a watermelon of which he has a refrigerator stocked full with them “more than enough to eat for weeks,” Nguyen said. He went on to say that he asked this new friend would it not be better to give it to someone who needs it more than he. He wondered if he had done the right thing in not accepting his friend’s hospitality. Fountainhead meeting An organizational meeting for FOUNTAINHEAD will be held Monday, September 8th beginning at 3 p.m. in the FOUNTAINHEAD office in the new pub center, Old South Cafeteria. “We closed admissions to trim our enrollment because of the cut in the overall budget. We will not be as crowded or strained as last year. Our enrollment is more in step with our resources.” The increase in student admissions is causing some problems for Director of Housing, Dan K. Wooten. “The dormitories are completely filled. The men’s dorms were filled 5 to 6 weeks prior to school opening and the women’s dorms 2 to 3 weeks prior to the opening. “Some incoming freshmen will be housed in the Infirmary and some dorms will have three persons to a room. “We knew in the spring the situation would be bad and informed students to make arrangements before they left for the summer. “We have also learned that the housing situation outside the campus community is pretty critical. Natural foods store opens By SAM NEWELL A market catering to tnose interested in organically grown food products has opened for business in the Colonial Heights Shopping Center at 2723 East Tenth St. The store will be opened between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. Monday through Saturdays, according to owner and manager, Steve Allen: of Grifton, N.C. “We hope to offer within the next three months courses in nutritional therapy. The courses will involve spotting nutritional deficiencies within yourself and teaching proper food combinations for an adequate diet,” he said. Allen has studied under two of the nation’s leading nutritional experts, Margaret and Rev. Adono Ley. “We cannot suggest proper vitamin combinations to individuals but we can recommend books to help the individual fulfill his needs. We carry Nu-life and Royal vitamins which are manufactured for vegetarians, said Allen.

Once used as a dining hall, the South Cafeteria was remodeledinto offices which house the Rebel, Buccaneer, Fountain- head, Publications Board, and campus print shop. The new Publications Center is located in front of the Joyner Library Annex. Not only is the center centrally located on campus, but, Mike Taylor, Fountain- head Editor-in-Chief, believes that having all publications under one roof will contribute to a spirit of cooperation among the campus print media and the Publications Board which selects the editors of each publication. Taylor, Editor of the campus newspaper for the next year, emphasized the Fountainhead is devoted to providing as much campus news as possible. He encourages all interested students to work for the Fountainhead. Also housed in the new Publications Center are the Buccaneer, the campus yearbook, and the Rebel, ECU's literary magazine.

The SCU publication divides the Greenville Food services into seven areas: 1) Fast Foods - designed with quick preparation and service in mind. 2) Popular Food - restaurants offering a full service menu (excluding beer and wine). 3) Cafeteria - services designed for self selection. 4) Speciality - services that may fit into other categories but deserve to be mentioned individually. (Specializing in a particular or foreign food.) 5) Delicatessen Sandwich Shop - services selling cold sandwiches and special salad items. 6) Soda Shop - cold beverages and snack items. 7) Pastry Shops - bakeries and donut Med school receives grant ECU School of Medicine has received a contribution of $1,525.61 in unrestricted grants from the American Medical Association Education and Research Foundation (AMA-ERF). Dr. James E. Davis, President of the N.C. Medical Society, formally presented this year’s check to Dr. William E. Laupus, Dean of the University’s School of Medicine in ceremonies held here. As an unrestricted grant, the money can be used any way the school desires including salaries, scholarships and building programs. shops that also provide coffee and sit down service. Each category contains restaurant listings in alphabetical order. “We did this to prevent accusations of favoritism,” said Byrd. “We are not recommending where they should eat. We simply provide the information. “We are also including some of the better restaurants outside the Greenville area,” he said. “We worked with the Student Consumer Action Union at Carolina (UNC-Chapel Hill) to secure food and restaurant information in the Raleigh Durham-Chapel Hill area. Also included in the pamphlet are restaurants in the Atlantic Beach-Morehead City area. “We did this to provide information for ECU students leaving for weekend trips,” said Byrd. “About $1300 was spent to provide 9000 pamphlets which may be picked up behind Memorial Gym on registration day. Afterwards pamphlets may be obtained at the SGA office in Mendenhall. Students are requested to limit themselves to one copy. According to Byrd, if students have any complaints about restaurants, food, or services, they should first complain to the establishment's manager. If satisfaction is not obtained they should call the Student Consumer Union (SCU). “We can register a complaint with the institution and if necessary follow with the proper legal action,” he said.

The elections will be for seats in the SGA Legislature and for class officers. “Right now the end of September looks good,” said Honeycutt. “The government constitution calls for Fall elections no later than 5 weeks after the quarter begins, but we didn't want to schedule the voting too soon.” Honeycutt explained he wants to give everyone, “especially freshmen’, a chance to adjust to ECU before beginning the week of campaigning. Forty-eight legislature seats will be open for students, half going to dormitory students and half to day students. Each dorm will send one or two representatives to the SGA Legislature, depending on the size of the dorm’s population. Each class will elect a president and vice-president, and the seniors will vote for a secretary-treasurer as well. The class presidents will have several duties, serving as voting members of the legislative body and as members of the Executive Council. The Executive Council, along with the 4 SGA officers elected in the Spring (SGA President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer), decide budget matters for the operation of the Executive Branch. 810 E. 1Oth St. 2905-E. 1Oth St “If you come straight from high school, as the upcoming freshmen will be, all this may seem complicated and foreign,” said Honeycutt. “last year’s freshmen legis- lators added a lot to the SGA, taking a more active role than many upperclass- men. We hope the class of '79 will follow through, too.” The dates to file for SGA posts will be published in the FOUNTAINHEAD as soon as details are worked out, said Honeycutt. ‘“! am thinking | might call for a two-day voting period.

Secretary of Public Relations Kim Kuzmuk and Tim Sullivan, SGA Executive Assistant, will compile, layout and handle the over-all mechanics of the project. Called THE PURPLE & GOLD, after ECU’s school colors, the newsletter will cover such items as the bus transportation route, ring rebates, the syatus of freshman parking, the free legal services offered by SGA, student loans and information on SGA funding in general. “We're going to see that the students of ECU know where their money to SGA is going,” stated Kim Kuzmuk. “If the students knew that a lot of services they use and take for granted are a result of SGA sweat, maybe we could all focus on the important problems of ECU.” A test issue of THE PURPLE & GOLD was printed and distributed at Freshman Orientation this summer. Its material, according to SGA, was aimed totally at Freshmen, with emphasis on informing the first-year students of the new self-limiting hours ruling, the reduction in price for SGA refrigerator rentals, family planning services offered by the Infirmary, and the September SGA _ legislature election. “We're not just tooting our own horn,” Jimmy Honeycutt, SGA President, said. “We want to let the students know about the services on campus, to let them know everything that is happening at ECU - form the troubles downtown to the troubles in the legislature room.” RICK’S GUITAR SHOP announces ¥% Price Sale on all Hernandis and Garcia guitars also 2 Price String Sale on GHS Acoustic Guitar Strings 20% off all other strings For 30 Days Only Sept. 4 - Oct. 4 Hours: 11:00-6:00 Mon.-Sat. * Guitar & Banjo Lessons * Lowest Prices in N.C. The lack of understanding of SGA and its services is acritical problem, according to the co-editor of the newsletter, Tim Sullivan. “Right now there is a committee of the board of trustees that is going to take a look at how student fees are being spent, and SGA could easily be singled out and its funds cut.” Many members of the board, Sullivan added, “may not know that when a Drama play is performed at ECU, SGA money is involved. When Fountainhead goes to press twice a week, or when the Buccaneer is published, SGA money is used. Every time a student rides a bus, or takes out a $25 loan, or goes to an opera on campus, SGA funds are at work. The newsletter, we hope, will educate everyone to these facts.” If SGA funds are cut by the board, Sullivan said, “some of these programs will be lost to the students.” The first newsletter to be published for the regular school term will come out in mid-September * case included Phone 752-2509 7 ee eee . and rding Tim f the ke a pent, and livan rama py is 5 to ineer “very ut a Pus, r, We hese ard, ams d for ut in Average college student age increasing yearly (CPS)--Age is creeping up on the average college student. Older college students—those 25 to 34 years old--have steadily increased as a proportion of the student body according to a recent report released by the US Census Bureau. The percentage of 18 and 19-year-old college students, meanwhile, has dwindled. In the fall of 1973, students between the ages of 25 and 34 made up 22 per cent of the college student population—while back in 1947, the percentage for that age group was 20 years ago. The report also pointed out that the shift to older college students has been more marked among women and that enrollment in private colleges is a smaller percentage of the total student population than it was 20 years ago. The increse in older students may account for the recent findings of a Stanford University research team which discovered that traditional discrimination against older students is rapidly changing. “The high motivation of the older person who returns to college greatly enhances his or her likelihood of academic success,” said a member of a Stanford student task force.

The Stanford group recommended a special program to be set up facilitating a half-time undergraduate option for older students. “Older students with ‘real world’ experience can serve as role models and resource persons from whom conventional undergraduates can learn many things,” the task force reported. To back up its proposal, the task force released its own positive survey results of similar programs at other schools. The survey found that such programs were handled with no increase in faculty at all but one of the 12 surveyed institutigns, which included Brown, Vassar, Wellesley, Smith and Cornell. 218 E.

The NCASG, an organization of the University of North Carolina’s 16 student governments, coalesced Spring 1975 in opposition to the proposed tuition hikes then before the N.C. General Assembly. Honeycutt, one of three incorporators who will sign the prepared articles, said the NCASG hired legal consultants and has been operating on a $1000 grant received from an anonymous donor. Upon receiving approval of the articles from the N.C.

At the time, the Pirates had been practicing for twelve days, including five days of three-a-day practices. Despite the time factor, it is hoped that this summary will give ECU students a good view of the team this year.] Pat Dye sits at his desk after a skull session with his coaching staff, contemplating the coming afternoon practice. The ECU head coach has become more accustomed to his office surroundings the last few days because he has not only been working there day after day, but on several occasions like the night previous, he has slept there. Or at least he has attempted to sleep. Chances are he has spent some sleepless nights thinking about his 1975 squad. “You never know what you are going to do until you line up against the other team,” said Dye. “But, we are an awfully young team this year.” Dye explains that of his starters, only seven are seniors and of his first 48 players depth-wise, only eight are seniors. Said Dye, “These freshmen and young guys are going to have to help us. We have more quality people for depth. But we are just too young. We could have two or three freshmen start our opening game at key spots.” Dye expected the youth-oriented part of his squad, since six starters on defense and four on offense graduated, including most of last year’s “Wild Dog” defense. One thing that Dye may not have foreseen however, was the series of injuries and no-shows which hit the team. “We have a lot of guys who have minor injuries which have kept them out of practice a lot. This will hurt us. Willie Bryant and Jake Dove (two of the Pirates’ principles on defense) haven't practiced much and the guys behind them haven't played a down.” Also among the injured were running back Vince Kolanko, last years starting quarterback Mike Weaver, running back Kenny Strayhorn and quarterback Pete Conaty. However, of the four, only Kolanko was questionable for the season’s first game. Despite the injuries, Dye is trying to look on the bright side. “It worries me, but it doesn’t mean we aren’t going to be able to play. “We've had an extremely tough fall practice and the men have taken a lot of pride in going through it in this extreme heat. Some injuries were caused because the players were tired. But we want them to have a sense of pride in being in better shape mentally and physically than anyone we play.” Some players have thrown in the towel, others had problems with grades and stil others decided they no longer wanted to play football. At any rate, the team’s depth has been cut by the loss of several players counted on to play. Because of this, Dye is looking to his freshmen for some help. “Our freshmen have got to help us right away,” said Dye. “If we can get all our people back healthy by kickoff time we can be competitive. We have five freshmen on defense who we feel will be going on the 48-man squad to Raleigh with us.” One player Dye may be concerned about is offensive tackle Ricky Bennett. Bennett strained ligaments in his knee during the second week of practice and mav not recover in time for the State game. If he doesn’t, the starting role could fall in the hands of freshman Matt Mulholland. Mulholland, however, is touted as one of the top reserve linemen and, if Bennett is not ready, should be able to fill the gap. Despite the problems, the 1975 Pirate team has a lot of bright spots for Dye to be haopy about, too. At quarterback, a three-way battle has developed between Weaver, Conaty, and Jimmy Southerland. Despite the minor injuries to Weaver and Conaty, Dye says the quarterback picture is still undecided. “Weaver is still probably our number ore quarterback, because he’s proving he can play under pressure. We have a lot of confidence in Conaty and Southerland, and so do the players. We feel we have three number one quarterbacks and they are listed that way. We won’t know who will start until gametime against State.” In the offensive line, the team seems sound, despite the injury to Bennett. Tim Hightower is back at center after injuries kept him out last year (see related story, page 41) and the other spots are all loaded with veterans Jimbo Walker and Wayne Bolt at guards and Larry Lundy at the tackle spot beside Bennett's. At tight end, Dye lists Barry Johnson and Clay Burnett as neck-in-neck for the job with neither man “Taking a clearcut advantage.” The defensive secondary is an area on defense where Dye hasn't had to be too concerned this fall. With four starters returning Dye added Bobby Myrick at safety to make better use of his speed and quickness. With All-Conference Jim Bolding and 1974 starter Greg Pingston, the Pirates are set at safety. Reggie Pinkney and Ernest Madison have returned at the corners. Another surprise in fall practice has been the play of junior Steve Hale in the secondary. of Pirate team in 1975 “Steve Hale is one of our brightest spots. He has been playing in the secondary and we feel he has developed into a winner for us.” If not for several injuries, the Pirates’ offensive backfield could be rated as a strength. But with Strayhorn, Kolanko and Alexander French hurt and Tom Daub reporting to camp overweight, Dye is viewing the backfield cautiously. “We have six backs that we think can play,” said Dye. “But Kolanko is hurt and French and Strayhorn have been hampered by leg injuries. Willie Hawkins and Ray Jones are the only two players here that seem healthy.” The two biggest problem areas going into the fall were supposed to be the passing game and the front seven on defense. Dye is optimistic about the passing and it appears that he has the freshmen to provide depth on the line on defense. “We've taken a different approach to our passing game this year and we'll be more effective in throwing the ball. Both Will Williamson and Terry Galiher are good receivers.” About the defense, Dye said, “Defensively, our brightest spot has been Cary Godette. Cary has shown no signs of his knee injury. “Harold Randolph and Emerson Pickett have also looked good at linebacker. Wayne Poole at nose guard and D.T. Joyner at tackle are a couple of freshmen we feel can help us right away.” Across the front, though, Dove and Bryant missed a lot of practice and Nick Bullock and Mike Crusie, the other two Starters at the time, had not seemed to develop enough .o be labeled as “solid performers.” See Dye, page 26. 18 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 1/4 SEPTEMBER 1975 'Time-Out By JOHN EVANS Sports Editor { J Last year marked the first time since 1968 that a school other than East Carolina, Richmond or William and Mary had not finished as champions of the Southern Conference in football VMI's championship last year also came in a year when a former conference doormat, ind its newest member, placed surprising second. That school was Appalachian State. And looking in the near future to the 1975 football season, fans may be surprised to find that the conference powers in the last seven years, Richmond, William and Mary, and ECU, may find the going tough just to place in the first division. Drop Davidson from the picture and what evolves is the possibility of a seven team race with the aforementioned schools standing the poorest shots at: the title, at least according to pre-season soothsayers. One has to drop the Davidson squad from the conference since they no longer play a Division One schedule and their mere three conference games does not qualify them for the title. However, with games against Appalachian, the Citadel and VMI, all favorites to place in the first division this year, the Wildcats may figure in the race nonetheless. And going into 1975, the conference has gone full circle in only two years. In 1973, VMI, Appaichian and the Citadel placed in the bottom three positions ahead of Davidson, with the top three teams the years of 1972 and 1973 having been ECU, Richmond and William and Mary. What has happened is that the losers have pushed heavily to build their programs into sompetition with the winners, while the winners, with the exception of East Carolina, have not sought to improve on their once-fine program. At Richmond, the Spiders will be leaving the conference in July, 1976. Therefore, this will be their last competitive year as a conference member in football. And with what Richmond seems to have to work with this year, one has to wonder what the Spiders plan to do in coming years when they play the likes of Maryland, North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia. William and Mary is in much the same condition on a football basis as Richmond. Their team this year is a poor one, or so it seems, in contrast to the superb teams it has fielded the last five years. For both Richmond and William and Mary, this year promises to be a rebuilding year n all aspects. And if | were going to school someplace other than East Carolina, | might be inclined to believe the same for the Pirates. Somehow, though | can’t fathom the Pirates placing as low aS sixth in the conference after the program which has been built in the last three years. A lot of people were said to have lost faith in Pat Dye in his first year, but one year is hardly enough time to rate a coach’s ability. With the winning tradition that Dye became used to at Alabama it is easier for me to believe the Pirates will go upward this year, instead of downward. A big plus the Pirates have going for them this year is that they will play four of the SC games at home this year. The Pirates last two home games, Nov. 1 against Furman and Nov. 22 against VMI, could very easily determine this year’s conference champion, as both the Paladins and Keydets are seen by many to be the top candidates for the title this year. For the first time in many years the Pirates have a first-rate schedule outside the conference. On three occasions, the Pirates travel to ACC schools to do battle. The N.C. State, Virginia and North Carolina games should yield the Pirates at least one win. We see ECU a possible victory over Carolina because the Tar Heels play Notre Dame, N.C. State and Ohio State prior to meeting ECU on October 25. Southern Illinois and Western Carolina have never been credited with having the caliber of team they really possess. Southern Illinois on its home field in Carbondale, Ill. is as tough as any ACC school at home and Western Carolina, while begging to be accepted to the Southern, has won 70 per cent of its games in the last six years, as well as being one of the top small college teams in the nation last year. So, looking at the 1975 season in making predictions, | do it with guarded optimism. Despite the final record, the point is sure that Pat Dye and the Pirates won't be able to overlook anyone.

Despite these accomplishments, the Wolfpack failed to win the Atlantic Coast Conference title or finish in the top ten nationally, goals coach Lou Holtz had set for his team at the beginning of the ear, " Holtz has set the same lofty goals for his team this year, and with 39 lettermen returning from last years team, his chances look good of achieving these goals. Since coming to Raleigh three years ago, Holtz has won 26 games. One of the major reasons for this achievement is that Holtz has surrounded himself with players like Dave Buckey and Ralph Stringer, the Pack’s two major All-American candidates. One can't talk about Wolfpack football this year without mentioning the name Dave Buckey. Buckey leads the Wolfpack offense from the quarterback position where his accurate arm and corps of receivers give N.C. State one of the top passing games in the country. Among Buckey’s receivers is brother Don. Don Buckey has caught 68 passes in three years, add ends Pat Hovance and Elijah Marshall to spell a long day for Pack opponents this fall. But passing may not hold up the Pack’s offense this fall. On the remaining offensive unit, State retums only two starters from last year. But, what they do have is dangerous. The two retuming starters are linemen Tom Serfass, at guard, and Mike Fagan, at tackle. The remainder of the Pack line will have to be built from sophomores and lettermen Bill Druschell, Ed Callaway and Lou Alcamo. Despite the loss of three 1974 starters, Holtz considers the offensvie line as one of the stronger Wolfpack areas. As fall practice began, the Wolfpack’s running game appeared questionable. With the graduation of Roland Hooks and Stan Fritts, the Pack must rebuild. The Hooks-Fritts tandem combined for 2,019 rushing yards and 25 touchdowns last year. Take that away from any offense and one will find a hole. Adequate replacements for Hooks and Fritts can be found, but Holtz’s problem will be to figure who they are from a field of eight major candidates. In addition, Holtz signed one of the most sought after high school backs in North Carolina, Ricky Adams. On defense, the Pack retums six starters from 1974. The leaders of the defense are Stringer and Tom Higgins. On Stringer, Holtz comments, “He may be the best cornerback this side of the Rockies. He is the only player on the squad who could start at any of five defensive positions.” That gives you the type of talent Holtz has in his secondary this year, with ’74 starter Eddie Poole, team leader in interceptions last year, also returning. Holtz also speaks high praise for Higgins. “Tom is a player any coach would covet. He has unlimited ability and a true love for the game.” The 230-pound Higgins anchors a defensive line which includes another top ACC iineman, Tom Henderson. At 6-3, 245 SEPT. 13 - APPALACHIAN STATE Henderson is a true asset to the Wolfpack defense. Deep at every position but lacking depth, Holtz says the key to the season will be to “keep Dave Buckey healthy and develop the younger players for depth.” Normally a team which boasts two specialists as its top players does not have a whole lot to offer, but this is not the case with Appalachian State, last year’s Southern Conference runner-up. Tom Serfass G NC State v DAVE BUCKEY will lead state’s offense against Pirates. Buckey is a major candidate for All-America honors. The specialists which lead the Mountaineers are punter Joe Parker and punt returner Devon Ford. Both players finished in the top five nationally in their specialities last year. Parker, a junior, led the NCAA in punting last year with a 44.3 average and Ford, also a junior, was the nation’s number four punt return man last year with a 15.8 average. And if the Mountaineers can stay away from injuries this year, they have enough talents to improve on last year’s 6-5 record and once again challenge for the conference title. One of the big areas for the Mountaineers is at the all-important quarterback spot where junior Robe Price is the top man to control the ASU wishbone. After Price, however, the Mountaineers have no proven back-up help. It's at quarterback and other key positions that ASU head coach Jim Brakefield feels the Mountaineers’ season will hang. “One of the keys to our success this season will be if we can stay injury free at the key positions, ” caid Brakefield. “We see Pricé as a good college quarterback since he has improved his passing, but I’m a little worried about our depth on defense.” On offense, however, Brakefield seems to have little to fear with a squad which features size, strength and speed. In the backfield positions behind Price, ASU has at least six major candidates for the starting roles. The leaders in this area are sophomores Emmit Hamilton and Calvin Simon. Price will have Ford and senior Donnie Holt to throw to. Both possess sub- 10.0 second speed. On defense, the linebackers key the team. The key men at these positions are Julius Thomas and Mike Staton. Last year’s defensive leader, Fred Snipes, has graduated and this leaves the important middle guard spot without a solid player, a fact that concerns Brakefield. “We don't have the depth on defense that | would like,” said Brakefield, “and our nose guard position is one position that is untried right now.” Brakefield’s concern about the defense, however, is somewhat altered by the fine recruiting year the Apps had last year. “We feel this has been our best recruiting year ever and we have a fine group of freshmen coming in. They will give us added depth at several key positions and they are talented. Of the 77 players on the ASU roster, only 12 are seniors. Although this would normally be a sign of inexperience, with 36 lettermen returning, 1975 should be another of many good football years to come at Appalachian State. a aera ie ee — 2© FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 1/4 SEPTEMBER 1975 Pirates to play on Astroturf at Southern Iilinois SEPT. 20 - WILLIAM AND MARY ‘In four years we've gone from sontender to last,” is the sentiment William and Mary coach Jim Root expresses when speaking about the past fortunes of the Indians’ football squad. Almost abandoned by the school last fall, but given a vote of confidence by the school’s Board of Trustees, the football program at William and Mary is possibly at its lowest level ever The alumni last year, after the school’s vote, pumped money into the program to help improve it, but the long struggle over finances and the future which has hung over the program the last five years has taken atoll far too great for the Indians to overcome in one year The most important problem for the team this year will be experience, and Root iS aware of this fact. “We have youth and enthusiasm,” Says Root. “It's going to be rough to win without the experienced players, though ‘We don’t have any super athletes, so we're going to have to do a lot on enthusiasm with what limited talent we have.” Having relied on the run for the offensive punch in the past, the Indians may be going to the air for their punch this year, although they will still operate out of the veer ‘We won't have anyone among the leading rushers in the conference,” says Root, “but we should have one of the better passers.” The man who Root is counting on is senior Paul Kruis, who backed up Bill Deery last year. The only two runners with a great deal of experience are tailback Tommy Smith and fullback Scott Goodrich. Neither man, however, appears to be a solid performer. Kruis, as yet, hasno set receivers, but several sophomores and _ seldom-used lettermen will fight it out for the three receiving spots. Defensively, the Indians appear experienced and sound in most of the front seven positions, where they operate a 5-2 setup. Ken Brown, Steve Dalton and Bruno Schmalhofer are the fixtures along the front and Craig McCurdy and Jeff Hosmer are the linebackers. Root feels McCurdy and Hosmer may be the best two players on the team and two of the best linebackers in the conference. “210 East 5th St Equipment We Also carry Paint & Hardware Come by or call, Six days a week. The most experienced man in the secondary will be junior Lou Case and sophomores seem to be the rest of the talent in that area. Says Root, “Our defense is going to have to get better this year. In the past, we've been able to outscore our opponents, but we're gonna have to be able to hold them down this year to be able to win.” It often pours when it rains, and the schedule William and Mary must play this year calls for the first four games to be played on the road against North Carolina, ECU, Pittsburgh, and the Citadel. The Indians also meet Rutgers and VPI on the road. The Indians haven't had a winless season since 1956, but with the schedule, team weakness and recent history, 1975 may prove to be an extremely dismal year. Leonard Hopkins, QB SIU SEPT. 27 - SOUTHERN ILLINOIS Getting thir.gs settled in the defensive secondary and at tight end are the chief items of concern for the Saluki football team this fall. Says Saluki coach Doug Weaver, “The defensive secondary is a chief area of concern. It represents the best place for an incoming freshman to play. Naturally, we expected this so we concentrated on these areas in our recruiting last winter.” Weaver also is concerned about the situation at tight end. “We also do not have an established tight end with experience and no one from last year's & H.LHODGES & CO.,INC. Sutlate Your complete sporting goods headquarters Full line of Tennis, Football, & Baseball Equip Complete line of hunting, fishing & camping 9:00-5:30 Mon-Sat. 752-4156 freshman squad to help. We may have to move someone from another position to tight end.” Two-year lettermen, and former Saluki quarterback, Mike Abegg will get a shot at tight end. Abegg, however, has not been in a uniform in two years and the experiment may wind up strictly that--an experiment. Speaking of quarterbacks, the Salukis are not very deep at that position either. Senior Leonard Hopkins is the starter, but after him the pickings are slim. In SIU’s wishbone offense, a good ball-handler is needed at the quarterback slot and the Salukis had one until Gary Mann got hurt. His status for 1975 is doubtful. Weaver does feel Hopkins can do the job, though. “Leonard proved to us in the spring he can quarterback the wishbone,” said Weaver. “We do have a concern about our execution since every player must do his part for our offense to work.” The standout in the Saluki backfield is Vic Major. Major was cited by Playboy as one of the top sophomores in the country this year and if the wishbone clicks for SIU, Major may be one of the major reasons. Other top returnees in the Saluki backfield are Lawrence Boyd and Andre Herrera, their two leading rushers in 1974. Ivy Moore returns as the split end, but the offensive line is questionable, a factor which may hamper Weaver's transform- ation to the wishbone. On defense, the Salukis gave up 4,500 yards last year during the 2-9 season. Although that is not a good figure, Weaver sees improvament since most of his players return. Four vacancies need to be filled, at linebacker, in the secondary and at defensive end, but there is experienced help to step in. The defensive leaders are middle guard Primus Jones, end Matory Bailey and safety Aaron Byas. It may turn out that Weaver is biting off more than he can chew, going to the wishbone, and he won't have the defense to make up for it. Weaver may have to look to his freshmen and junior college transfers for help, and they aren’t that impressive. Consequently, the brightest spot for the Salukis in 1975 may be their new home field, the renovated McAndrew Stadium. The newly renovated stadium will feature Astro Turf and should be completed by the ECU-SIU game on Sept. 27. A AS Vic Major, RB SIU LIVE BUMP SOUNDS fd lers SEPTEMBER 3 Wed. 4 Thurs.

If Richmond coach Tait is planning on making it a championship year, he will have to rely on the offensive team and his youngsters, because the Spider defense does not appear promising. Last year, the Spiders had an up and down season, finishing at 33 in the conference and 5-5 in overall. This year, the Spiders have gotten weaker, or appear to be, ina year when most of the conference schools have improved. “We again have a chance to be a pretty good footbail team,” sayd Tait. “But it will depend on a lot of young players doing a good job for us in a hurry, and we hope that the injured players will recover fully.” In essence, it appears the Spiders may be building for next year when they leave the conference and start replacing many of the conference teams with the likes of Maryland and Tulsa and continue series with West Virginia, Georgia and Virginia Tech. But Tait still feels his team will make a run at the title. The major reason for his optimism lies with the offense. “Offensively, we should be effective as we were a year ago, but we will be running the ball more because we have the players that can move it on the ground.” Probably the strongest areas on the Rchmond team will be the offensive line and the backfield. Six lettermen retum in the interior line and the three top backs also retum. The stalwart on the line is senior Rodney Elam. Elam, a 225-pounder, has started every game since his sophomore year. Veterans retum at the other tackle spot and at the guard spots, making center the only position where the Spiders must find fresh blood. As far as the receiving corps are concemed, the problem will not be in the receivers but in finding someone to pass to them. Flanker Ricky Brown and tight end Tim Manwarring, a juco transfer, will be the receivers, but so far the quarterback slot has not been decided. Junior Larry Shaw seems heir apparent to the spot, but will be challenged by Milton Ruffin, who missed last year with injuries. Shaw is more of a passer than Ruffin, but Ruffin’s running ability may outshine Shaw's. Backs John Palazeti and Bob Allen are fourth-year players for the Spiders, and pis be set in the backfield. With two perienced retumees backing both of a, the backfield seems set as the possible ace of the Spiders’ lean deck. The Spiders’ have another strength in their kicking game with Terry Carter handling the placekicking and Johnnie Jones the punting. As many as five sophomores could start on defense for the Spiders this year, although seven players return from last year’s Club. The entire defensive line is up for grabs, as junior college transfers will combine with the youngsters already there in an attempt to shore up a leaky rushing defense. The defensive secondary is the only point of Tait’s defense that seems set and the total depth on defense is poor, with inexperienced players and freshmen making up most of the second team. Tait explains the situation on defense best when he states, “Defensively, we have a lot of work to do, but we should be better. We recruited a few junior college players who should give us some solid game experience and fill some of the weak spots from last year. Some of the freshmen may come along and help our depth in the line and in the defensive backfield, but we can’t count on them for the first few games.” At best, 1975 appears to be a rebuilding year for Richmond, where, in Tait’s words, “We will be exciting to watch and will play with enthusiasm and aggressiveness. OCT. 11 - THE CITADEL Bulldog coach Bobby Ross has set high goals for his team this year, especially for a team which has not had a ’ winning season since 1971, and only two winning seasons in the last 15 years. In stating his goals for 1975, Ross states, “Our goals are to win nine games and the conference championship.” Ross’ goals, if accomplished, would bring the Bulldogs their first champion- ship since 1962. Andrew Johnson, RB ECU, VMI favored picks Southern Conference Sports Inform ation Directors have picked East Carolina a slight pre-season pick to win this year’s football crown. The Pirates, who were the Conference champions in 1972 and 1973, nosed defending champion VMI by one point in the voting. When looking at the SID’s picks, the conference seems to wind-up as a race for the title between ECU and VMI, with Richmond and Appalachian State distant picks to win the title. 1. East Carolina 57 2. VMI 56 3. Appalachian St. 45 4. Richmond 39 5. Furman 31 6. Citadel 28 7. Wm. and Mary 24 8. Davidson 8" “Not eligible for title. But, Ross has reason for his optimism. ; Not only did his team improve last year, but this year Ross has two. sure All-America candidates in Andrew Johnson and Brian Ruff. In addition, Ross has 15 seniors returning from the 1974 squad which beat both Furman and Appalachian State to knock those schools out of the title race. And with an easy non-conference schedule, Ross’s squad could easily win games without taking the conference title. On offense, the Citadel has three such possibilities, according to Ross. They are receivers Dickie Regan and Doug Johnson and quarterback Gene Dotson. In Johnson, Ross has probably one of the five best backs in the nation. Last year, Johnson snapped the conference single-season rushing record (formerly held by ECU great Carlester Crumpler) with 1,373 yards and the Southem Conference Player of the Year is only 980 yards shy of the career rushing record (also held by Crumpler). Last year Johnson ranked sixth in the nation. Ruff, only a junior, anchors the defense from his outside linebacker position. The twice All-Conference player has led the Bulldog defense in tackles both seasons. Ross, however, doesn’t feel that Johnson and Ruff will be the key to the Bulldogs’ season. vrun= Add Brake Fluid, If Necessary. BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIALS.

Regan, a 6-4 tight end, and Johnson, a 5-11 flanker, have matured into two of the finest receivers in the league and will be only juniors this season. Regan and Johnson teamed up to collect 59 passes last year. Backing Dotson at quarterback is Rod Lanning. Lanning saw a lot of action in place of Dotson last year, when Dotson was injured, and this gives Ross two seasoned quarterbacks. Add sophomore Joe Sumrall and the ’Dogs are three deep. The rest of the picture for the Bulldogs is bright, offensively and defensively. Seven of the Bulldogs’ 11 starters in the line return, but only one member of the Bulldog defensive backfield returns, an area which concems Ross. Ross, however, lists speed, experience and talent as the Bulldogs strengths and these add up to a winning season. If Ross proves correct the Bulldogs may play more than a darkhorse role in the conference this season. Reg. Price $7.50 By Appointment Only rear Signature rv.

Shampoo review In “Shampoo”, Warren Beatty comes up with a double success as an actor and producer. Beatty’s role as George in “Shampoo” is supported and, more often, over- shadowed by the roles of Julie Christie, Lee Grant, Goldie Hawn and Jack Warden. Christie, Grant and Hawn play the roles of the three major loves, or mistresses in George's life. That’s right, the three “major’ mistresses. And that is where the film line progresses from, the life of an aspiring and talented young hairdresser who has somewhat . f a problem preventing himself from taking his work to bed with him. Where the hairdresser runs into trouble is when he begins to fall in love with two girls at one time. The first, Ms. Christie as Jackie, for physical reasons. The second, Ms. Hawn, or Jill, formere love reasons. Then there is Lee Grant, as the wife of the man, Jack Warden, from whom he is attempting to borrow money to often his own shop. The plot becomes more complicated as it is discovered that Jackie is also the mistress of the wealthy politician who is married to the wife that George has been shacking up with. As complicated as the plot may seem, it is relatively easy to follow. Each | character is developed separately in relation to the other characters in the film. Where the problem ultimately becomes too much to handle is at the moment when all five parties are at the same gathering, and slowly each is able to figure out what has been going on. Where, for the most part, the problems of the characters are solved, or at least temporarily, George never solves his. Too late, George is discovered with the wrong girl, and too late he discovers which of the three he really wants. But, more than the story line, Beatty in his screenplay and production says something about the morality of American life, without passing judgement on the characters. That he leaves for the audience to do. Julie Christie is one of those actresses whose every motion is smashed through. Goldie Hawn is sensational as the most naive and simplistic of the characters. Lee Grant is such a cool-styled comedienne, that it is hard to tell where she is serious in the film, and Jack Warden proves the biggest surprise in the case. And Beatty as the central performer in the cast does a swell job. With the acting, the production, the thought, the comedy and the moralistic time, “Shampoo” not only comes off as a complex film, but an entertaining one, also. be od el wee Ww Member F DiC ~ ~ oS SASS NVQ JANE DOE Personal Banker ™ Campus Office |000 Grad Street Bm Collegetown, N.C.

Waters “rebuilding” year in 1974 resulted in the Catamounts finishing 92 and playing in the NCAA Division Two playoffs against Louisiana Tech Waters again is saying that this year wili be a “rebuilding” year, but WCU opponents would best do well to approach this statement with caution For sure, the Catamounts have lost key players on offense and defense, some with nO apparent replacements. Waters, nowever, has compiled a 41-17-2 record in six years at Western, so his coaching ability is certainly not Suspect Waters feels that “a lot of good thing have to happen to us quickly in order for us to have another great football team. Overall, we have about the same number of strengths and weaknesses as we did last year. Whether we make the most of our strengths and are able to find the people to shore up our weak spots as effectively as we did last year, is anybody's guess On offense the Catamounts relied last year on their passing attack, which averaged over 200 yards a game. But, with the two greatest receivers in the school’s history having graduated, they may have to hange their emphasis to the running Jame Graduated from the Cats’ receiving sorps are College All-America Jerry Gaines at aplit end and Eagle Moss at flanker Between them last year, Moss and Gaines set every pass receiving record in WCU Aleta But they are gone and the only capable returnee to the team is sophomore Wayne Tolleson. Tolleson is small, at 5-8 and* 48 pounds, but he proved himself last year with key touchdown catches in the Catamounts’ wins over Appalachian State and Western Kentucky. Tolleson is the only experienced wide receiver The rest of the offense appears to be sound on the first year, but weak in depth S: Oo rx Serving at all hours 2518 East 10th St. GLSLSLSSLSSSSSSLS SSS SSS SS LSS SASS ASS SSL IS SSISSSSSSA ae A ALSLLSSPLSSLLSLLLLLLSLSLLSLLLLLSLLLLSLLSSLLSSLLSSLLLLLS A One area where the Catamounts appear sound, with depth, is at quarterback, where both Jeff Walker and Danny Dalton return Walker is the Cats’ number one man. In seven games last year, before a separated shoulder sidelined him, Walker threw for 1,447 yards. It was Dalton who guided the Cats to their last three regular season wins. Waters sees Dalton as an adequate replacement to Walker in case of injury. The lack of pass receivers may Cause the Catamounts to go to the ground more often this year, in order to pick up yardage. They have two able-bodied returnees in the backfield slots to help in this endeavor. Darell Lipford was given a change as a freshman last year because of injuries and ended up gaining 983 yards. Herb Cole, the fullback may have had a lot to do with that. Cole is described by the WCU coaches as an “excellent fullback and fine blocker, who will most like be used again in that capacity.” Nevertheless, the senior fullback has averaged 4.5 yards a carry during his career at Western Carolina. The offensive line is called by Waters the “strongest in several years.” The only problem area is at center, where the Catamounts have no returning veterans, lettermen or non-lettermen. The mainstay of the line is tight end Mike Green. Green is listed in Street and Smith’s College Football Guide as an All-American candidate and one of the top tight ends in the nation. Waters calls Green the “finest blocker i've ever had at tight end” and plans on using the 6-3, 240 pound senior more as a receiver in 1975. On defense, Waters makes the comment that it is “the most unsettled defensive picture we've Seen in seven years at Western Carolina.” The defensive picture does, indeed, appear cloudy. Last year the Cats allowed their opponents only 87 points and eight touchdowns in 11 games, but the six returning starters don’t seem to be the class players of last years squad. The defensive line is the only place on the Cats 53 defense where Waters does SLSS SSA S SSS SA SSAA SAA SSSA AA SAAS AA SASS IAS SASSSSS ASSIS SSSA SSA, Welcome Students We’re glad you’re here!

Returning solid performers are tackle Felix Seltzer, middle guard Jim Calverne and defensive end Bob Jablonski. One defensive lineman, Mike Wade, has been moved to linebacker to shore up a gap left by the graduation of All-America Steve Yates. No experienced player has heen found for the other spot. Two top players return in the secondary, three year starter Allen Corpening and, last year’s monster man, Terry Moore. Moore, has been switched to the secondary to compliment Corpening as cornerbacks, but there are no proven players at safety. Moore’s monster back position will be filled by former offensive standout, Jack Bowen. The secondary is Waters’ major concern on the Catamount team this year, especially since they open against one of the top passing teams in the nation, Toledo. With only 24 lettermen returning and a serious depth problem, Waters says his young players must develop early for the Catamounts to be a winner in 1975. This could be a very bad year for the Catamounts’ football! fortunes to be turned around. The Southern Conference hopefuls play three conference teams: Furman, Appalachian and East Carolina. The outcomes of these games could have a major bearing on how soon, if ever, the Catamounts will be allowed into the conference. Carolina revenge game OCT. 25 - NORTH CAROLINA With only three starters returning on offense, coach Bill Dooley faces a major task to rebuild a part of the Tar Heels attack which was largely responsible for their bowl appearance the last two years. The Heels’ offense does return James “Boom Boom” Betterson and Mike Voight. Betterson and Voight, as alternates at the halfback position, each ran for over 1,000 yards last year. The scarcity of returnees to the other backfield spots could find Dooley moving either Betterson or Voight to the fullback slot. If this move is not made, then sophomore Tony Mills should take over this slot. At quarterback, the Heels have lost Chris Kupec and Nick Vidnovic. The heir apparent could be Billy Paschall, but sophomore Johnny Elam and freshman P.J. Gay may make quarterback into a strong suit for the Heels. Only Mark Cantrell returns as a starter from last year’s offensive line and Dooley sees this area the principal problem in the Heels’ offense. “We have to replace five starters in the offensive line,” says Dooley, “and there seems to be only two experienced players to take their places.” The defense, also, could cause the Heels some problems. With teams on the schedule such as Ohio State, Notre Dame, N.C. State and Maryland, the Tar Heels are going to have to come up with some sort of defense to stop these offensive-powered teams. Dooley says this will be one of the major tasks for the Heels in the early season. “We gave up a number of points last year and thus put special emphasis on this part of our defense this year. We must show improvement defensively if we hope to have a successful season. “We do have good talent on defense, but we must show more consistency. Depth could be a problem at several positions.” But Dooley does not feel that all is trouble for the Heels on defense. ‘| do think that we have the nucleus for a good defense in Rod Broadway, Dee Hardison, Bill Perdue and Russ Conley.” Broadway and Hardison will lead the defensive line and Conley will head the secondary. Perdue and sophomore Chuck Austin will be the ends. Besides these five, however, Dooley will have to rely on freshmen and inexperienced youth from last year's squad. James Betterson, RB The mark of a good team and a good coach is the ability to build a winner with the youth which North Carolina has. Dooley, however, still thinks the Heels’ can be a winner. “| think we can have another good football team this fall. A lot is going to depend on how quickly our younger players mature and how much immediate help we can get from our incoming freshmen.” Did you know...... This year's East Carolina-Furman basketball game on January 10 will be televised on the TVS television network.

One main ingredient that the Paladins lack is senior leadership. Only four of the returning 54 players are seniors. “It is hard to have your best team without seniors,” said Baker. “I think the fact that we were sophomore-dominated and had such a young team hurt our chances last year. This year, those players have matured and most are juniors. Several of them we see as having outstanding potential.” One of these players is quarterback David Whitehurst. A mid-season injury rendered Whitehurst ineffective the rest of the year, but Baker sees the junior as a big part of the Paladins’ plans this year. “| know I’m prejudiced, but | feel that there is no better quarterback in the conference. He is an outstanding leader with a great attitude. If we can just keep him well.” In all, the Paladins have 15 starters returning from last year, but gone is the nucleus of the defensive secondary which ranked third in the nation last year. Baker points this out. “Our most glaring weakness this year is in the defensive secondary, where we have been ranked eighth and _ third nationally the last two years. Our depth at quarterback and the receiving positions is a second major weakness.” Larry Anderson, LB Furman In the offensive backfield, however, Baker has the horses to team with Whitehurst. That is, provided they stay healthy. The Paladins return nearly everyone from last years team. Leading the way wit be fullback Ike Simpson and ‘asibacks Andy Goss and Larry Robinson. Reker feels transfer Dick Wier may vercome Simpson and Goss at the back position for ihe starting role + feels the backfield 1s the Paladins’ » Strength if we can keep Simpson and “Whitehurst healthy we wii! be very deep in the backfield,” said Baker. “Last year both players suffered long injuries which hurt our team performance.’ The defensive line and linebacking corps return six starters anc’ the standouts here are linebacker Larry Anderson and nose guard Frank Moses. The Paladins are so strong at the defensive tackle positions that they have five lettermen and four Starters listed. Says Baker about 1975, “I am an optimistic coach by nature, but our players will have to realize that we will have to work to be winners. Virtually every team in the conference is stronger, and it will have the best balance it has had in years. “| just hope that we play as well as | think we can. If we do, we will be alright.” NOV. 8 - VIRGINIA Virginia in 1975 could prove to be the surprise of the Atlantic Coast Conference, and possibly the toughest game of 1975 for the Pirates. _ Sonny Randle’s first year as head coach was a stormy as the reaction to his departure from East Carolina in December, 1973. Randle proved to be one of the toughest coaches to ever come along to Virginia, long known better for its scholastics than its football teams. Prior to last season, Randle said, “| only know one way and I’m not going to change. The players are going to have to accept me for what | am.” Challenges were thrown up by the players, not all of them, but mostly those not used to the Randle discipline. Many players decided that football was not that important, but those who stayed ‘ believe in Sonny Randle. Randle feels this transition hurt Virginia's changes for a winning season last fall as much as anything else, however Randle feels better about the situation at Virginia now. ‘After a year, we feel awfully good about the attitude of the squad. Now that players and coaches are on the same page, it’s going to make life and football a lot more pleasant for all concerned.” On the Cavalier squad, the long suit is Scott Gardner. Gardner is one of the top three quarterbacks in the country this year and, with State’s Dave Buckey, is one of two possible All-America quarterbacks ECU will face this year. Gardner owns virtually every Virginia passing and total offense record, and was the nation’s top quarterback unti! he was injured last year As a sophomore in 1973, Gardner was seventh in the nation in passing Gardner leads a proven Cavalier offense which averaged 343 yards last year Junior running backs Joe Sroba, Bill Copeland, David Sloan and Don Flow return and ends Jim Colleran and Tommy Fadden, who combined for 58 passes in 1974, return also. Sroba has been switched to flanker to replace the graduated Ken Shelton. The Sroba-Fadden combination should provide Gardner with enough talent to make him a first-team All-American Virginia's offensive line averages 245 pounds and is led by All-America candidate Tom Glassic. Glassic will be starting at guard for the fourth year, having been a starter his freshman year. Virginia has the field goal threat in junior Joe Jenkins. Jenkins also handles the punting for Virginia and consistently puts his kickoffs in the end zone. As good as the offense looks, Randle calls his defense “green”, but talented. ‘We'll have to go with a lot of green youngsters,” says Randle, “and although they have some talent, you dont know how they'll react under the gun because they haven't been there before.” Only three starters from 1974 return on the Cavaliers’ defense. Randle has employed the wide tackle six at Virginia and put ends Mike Ozdowski and Bob Meade inside. With the new defense, the Cavaliers alignment is jumbled and the effect of the change won't be known unti! the season Starts One member of the secondary, Ja Morris returns to the team and throughout the defense there are gaps There is an extremely positive feeling about Virginia football in 1975, but improvement over last year's 4-7 mark wil! be based on shoring up the gaps left defensively, the health of Gardner and Glassic, and whether there are enough talented first year players, some of whom may be called on to start, to furnish capable second line help Did you know...... Clarence Stasavich and Jack Boone are the winningest coaches in East Carolina football history. Both Stasavich and Boone coached the ECU team to 50 wins Stasavich was 50-27-1 in eight years as an ECU coach and Boone was 50-53-5 in 11 years as the ECU football coach beverages Showing silent movies nightly sports, comeay, classics, horror (See yourself on SLIDES. ) Air-Conditioned COME RELAX in our bean bag chairs.

For that reason, the Nov. 22' date when these two teams meet may wind up as the biggest conference game of the year. That is provided VMI repeats its performance of a year ago, when it won its first conference football title since 1962. For coaching the Keydets to this title, Thalman was named NCAA District II Coach of the Year, as well as the conference Coach of the Year. Thalman, however, is not resting on his laurels, and he is well aware that the tables could turn around in 1975. “It is a brand new serason with a brand new challenge,” says Thalman. “Certainly it is a different situation than the previous four years. It is most satisfying to have Dye..... from page 17. Dye will have to look to Joyner, Poole and three other freshmen, Zak Valentine, Tim Swords and Fred Chavis, for help. But, Dye feels if the injuries go away soon enough, that the Pirates will be a team to be reckoned with in Raleigh Saturday. Even more importantly, he says the team will be ready for Appalachian State in the second game. “We're looking forward to playing State and we think we can play with anybody in the ACC. Right now, our kids have a terrific attitude and we've taken them a long way, but there are just too many question marks to be sure. “If we lose at State by 49 points we'll have to come back and prepare for Appalachian just as if we had beat them. Appalachian is an important game for us. Nobody has to tell us that we weren't ready for them last year and that was my fault. “But regardless of what happens at Appalachian and State, by the time we come home to play William and Mary we'll know what type of team we have for sure. “By the time the season has progressed a little further we'll have an exciting team and one which | think people will enjoy watching.” Injuries, youth and uncertainty, these are the things which cloud the Pirate football camp on the eve ; of opening day 1975. For Coach Pat Dye and his team, some of these clouds may clear in the next few games, even if the nights aren't any more restful. 1975 ECU FOOTBALL SCHEDULE palachian State Sept. 20 William and Mary HOME Carbondale, I1I Oct 4 Richmond HOME The Citade Charleston, S.C Oct. 18 Western Carolina HOMECOMING a JNC—Chapel Hill Chapel Hill, N.C Nov. 1.

Now to defend the championship is a most exciting challenge.” Thalman feels sure that his team will live up to the predictions it will be one of the teams to beat this year, and feels improvement has been made in each position through recruiting. “Since the final game last fall, our objectives have been to improve in every area of our football program. We have found quality young men to be more receptive to our fine school, and | really believe we have had a banner recruiting year.” The team Thalman has retuming from last year includes 17 starters and 36 lettermen. 10 of the starters retum on defense. “On defense, captains Terry White and Phil Upton are back to provide leadership. We have switched end Glenn Jones to Jimbo Walker, OG linebacker and our secondary is led by our sensational freshmen from last year, Johnny Gamett and Greg Amett.” Coach Thalman can ramble on forever about his defense and with good reason, since only Jones’ former end position is disputed and there are two lettermen to battle for his spot. VMI is not quite as strong on offense, but does retum seven starters. Most prominent of these starters is Ail- American candidate Ronnie Moore. Moore is labeled by Thalman as “certainly one of the finest pass receivers in the country.” All-Conference lineman Doug Hines leads the line, which retums three starters. In addition, running backs Kim Glidewell and Tom Mihalik retum. Thalman lists at least three other backs as_ definite standout possibilities for 1975. But Thalman does have one gap to fill - at quarterback. Last year’s starter, Tony Farry, has graduated and all Thalman can mma Cary Godette, DE These freshmen are the players which may help the Pirates the soonest. FRED CHAVIS— A 6-1, 195 pounder from Dunn, N.C. Being used at defensive end by Pirates during the fall drills. One of five freshmen defensivemen Dye feels may be traveling on the 48-man squad to Raleigh. Chavis was the MVP in football at his high school all three years. Totalled 21 touchdowns and 1800 yards during his high school career as a running back. Also a high-school standout in track and basketball. SAM HARRELL-- One of the Pirates top offensive recruits, but still not too involved in the ECU picture for this year. Been tried at running back, but played in Boys’ Home game at his high school position of quarterback. D.T. JOYNER-- Big (240 pounds) lineman who has impressed coaching staff with his strengths and desire. Played high school ball in Norfolk, Va. With Jacob Dove having missed a lot of fall practice with minor injuries, Joyner has gotten a lot of work at the defensive tackle slot. Should Dove get hurt, Joyner would become one of those freshmen Dye says “have got to help us in a hurry.” MELVIN POOLE- Another of Dye’s freshmen recruits on the defensive line. Poole has been practicing at nose guard behind Nick Bullock. Although he is inexperienced, Dye feels this 230-pounder can help the Pirates this fall. TIM SWORDS-~ A defensive tackle, Swords is another of the youth Dye will have to look to in spelling or replacing his first team line, should injuries occur. At 6-2, 235 pounds, Sword is an imposing figure. ZACHARY VALENTINE- A high schoolineman who has been put at defensive end by the coaches because of his speed and size (6-4, 200 Ibs). MATT MULHOLLAND- Matt came to East Carolina during spring quarter, after attending Fork Union Military Academy. An offensive tackle, Mulholland is one of the highest touted freshmen in camp. Did participate in spring practice and therefore coaches know something of his talent, but still classified as freshman eligibility-wise. When first-string tackle Ricky Bennett was hurt, Mulholland’s presence on the team became more important. If Bennett is not healed by State game, Mulholland will more than likely start in his place. A 6-0 foot, 225 pounder. Jimmy Boilding, S say is “rest assured, come September, we'll have somebody under the center who can do the job we need.” At press time, Mark Lambert and Bill Bailey were battling for this spot on the Keydets’ first team. Two other players, Jeff Yates and Hunt Ozmer, will likely get a chance at quarterback, too. One must remember that Farry was not the starting quarterback for,the Keydets last year until the season started, as Thalman looked elsewhere than his offense for his 1974 quarterbacks. Such could be the case again in 1975. The quarterbacking problem is the only major problem which Thalman must face this year. They Keydets’ depth is questionable, but with 36 retuming lettermen some should be found. As for Thalman, he’s ready. “| know my coaches and players are ready for this new season and our brand new challenge. We have worked hard to reach this position and | can assure you that in 1975 the Keydets will not retreat.” Raymond Jones, RB |q ” ee] FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 1/4 SEPTEMBER 1975 3 ] =, | STUDENT a = 6=—s HARMONY HOUSE nd Bill on the rs, Jeff get a must tarting Silver Service Discounts and yr until 5 1974 Mail Order Discounts e only st face th is uming As for rS are brand ard to re yOu reat.” Harmony House South is one of the Largest stereo chains in the state with 3 stores in North Carolina and our Board of directors has decided: We will not be undersold under the same terms by Dixie Hi-Fi or any legitimate Hi-Fi dealer in the United States.

Pat Kinlaw, this year’s head cheerleader, sees a “change in style” over last year's squad. ‘Unlike last year when the squad had co-heads, Kinlaw will direct the group alone. The six returnees from last years squad are: Par Kinlaw, St. Pauls; Judy Barnes Virginia Beach, Va.; Larry Buchanon, Belmont; Teresa Rivera, Havelock; Randy Alford, Greenville and Kate Welch, Greenville. Joining the squad for the first time are: Patty Russell, Greenville; Jody Fountain, Rocky Mount; Leigh Davis, Jamestown, Donna Baise, Winston-Salem; Kenneth Lanier, Maple Hill; Edna Privott, Edenton ; Joe Borrell, Princeton, N.J.; Brenda Hathaway, Spring Hope; and Doug Wood, Cove City. Russell, Davis, and Wood show prior experience, having cheered with the junior varsity squad last year. Kinlaw credited Bill Cain, assistant athletic director, tennis coach and cheerleader director, as a large force behind the squad. He handles the budget for the squad, which comes out of the athletic budget, as well as any problems that occur throughout the course of the year. The squad travels by school van and this year finds the girls clad in new uniforms. The work of an East Carolina cheerleader does not stop on the sidelines on a Saturday, or on the coliseum floor. Part of the cheerleaders’ job is to arouse Bob's TV Zenith Allec ‘spirit, to get every fan to exert noise, creating momentum in any situation during a game. Kinlaw noted that the “cheerleaders cannot get the crowd anymore involved than the crowd wants to be.” Many students do not realize the extra time that is put into this job, and in the past credit has not been given where credit is due. The cheerleader receives no benefits, and the routines which are seen on the sidelines are not learned easily. The gymnastics, stunts, and routines are the result of hours upon hours of practice. This year the squad will be shooting for recognition as one of the top squads around the country. Last year saw ECU in the top 100 of all NCAA schools, and this year, with increased interest, the squad should reach the top ten. Seminars set In fulfillment of a campaign promist the Student Government Association is tentatively scheduling legal seminars to be held in September.

Meeting Monday at 3 p.m. mG] FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 1/4 SEPTEMBER 1975 Union programming handled by students By JOHN EVANS College programming of major concerts is becoming more and more professionalized today, due primarily to the costs involved in securing top name acts. “Most colleges today simply can't afford to risk the money involved in bringing in a top act for a concert,” says Sepp Donahower, in a recent article in Billboard on college promotions. Donahower, of Pacific Presentations in Los Angeles, goes on to say why colleges are more and more for tuming their concerts to big-time promoters. “When a professional promoter comes in he lifts a lot of the headaches off the school,” sayd Donahower. “Artists seem to prefer it and it’s steady business for us if we do the job properly.” But, Ken Hammond, East Carolina Program Director, finds the use of outside promoters to be detrimental to the school involved. “Because ECU has the only major facility east of Raleigh promoters are anxious to come here,” said Hammond. ‘but, here at ECU we have a policy where promoters can not promote a show on the ECU facilities. “The reasoning behind this is that if we rented the facility out to promoters to put on a show the students would ultimately be the ones who suffered,” continued Hammond. “You see, when a promoter puts on an act at a college campus he rents out the facility and, after that, the school has no say on ticket prices or the like. Often times the promoters will charge the students large prices to see concerts they should actually get a break on.” Hammond said, however, that there are also advantages to letting promoters put on a show at East Carolina. “The system is possibly advantageous in that it makes it easier to book the bigger acts because a promoter has more capital to work with.” Adds Hammond, “in addition, the promoter is not going to bring an act which is not going to sell, because he wants to make money.” Hammond stated the disadvaritages outweigh the advantages when promoters are used on a college campus. How then, are the major acts which come to East Carolina booked. N.C. no. 3 Rock Night Club ATTIC Ateatross “All programming is done under the Student Union committees,” relates Hammond, “with myself as the one who oversees the total involvement of these activities by the students involved.” Hammond explained that the acts are usually purchased from a promoter by the Stuaent Union for a specific date. After the purchase has been made, the act becomes the total promotion of the East Carolina Union. Hammond believes this is a good policy because, “it enables us to control our prices and get some revenue back from the productions.” The East Carolina policy involves an exchange of contracts, where negotiations will some times take as long as 30 days to complete. Despite the East Carolina policy Hammond feels it is one of the best in the country. “Overall, we have one of the better yperations in the country,” said Hammond. “The degree of profession- alis™ by our staff and the students is very gor |. Our system is one where every safeguard is allowed to insure that the students are the ones looked out for.” At East Carolina, the base level for the Major Attractions committee budget is $50,000. The Major Attractions committee handles all major promotions such as rock acts and circuses and operates on a “break even” oasis. “If the committee budget goes above $60,000,” explained Hammond, “then the extra revenue is funnelled into other Union committee budgets or put to use in the creation of new programs. “However, if the amount falls below $40,000, the money is replenished by Student Union funds. In theory, this is how it works.” Hammond explained that the theory very rarely holds true in the event the committee’s budget falls below $40,000. “The other committee’s budgets are set at the beginning of the year and it is rare that they are willing to help out another committee when the budget drops. “For this reason, if the Major Attra, ions committee's budget drops below $40,000, then they have just about programmed themselves out. $40,000 in this inflationary era is about the least one can operate with successfully on the type cf program we have at East Carolina.” Wed.-Thur. Fri.-Sat. PEGASUS NANTUCKET This would seem to be a reason for ast Carolina to adopt a policy where professional promoters are brought in to take ‘he financial risks, with the college takiny a definite sum of revenue. But, Hammond once again referred back to the East Carolina facility, Minges sliseum. “tven though it is the biggest place ast of Raleigh,” pointed out Hammond, Minges’ capacity is only 6,500. This would mean that the promoter would have to charge prices in the $10 range in order to make a profit. “With places like Greensboro holding 16,000 and Duke holding 9,000, it is more advantageous to the promoter to book an act at these places.” Hammond clarified his explanation a little further. “In most cases when the failure of a group to appear at East Carolina is not as a result of inadequate funds, the committee Kf, gs Alas. ‘ or te locality of East Carolina. It is more ne esclt ©! the size of the capacity in sot par son ‘o other facilities in the state.” *rir ipally, promoters agree pro or con wii whiat Hammond said. Each promoter he hi own feelings towards college pi noting today. But as far as East Carolina i: c iceinec, the use of professionai fp ‘mc ers is an idea which blossoms e..ewnere, but which is not suited for — stern North Carolina or East Carolina iversity in general.

Kottke, who preceded Ronstadt on stage, was enjoyable with his bar-room baritone and fine guitar work, which served to accent each other excellently. His style of play and performance were just not similar enough to Ronstadt’s, however, to make him seem appropriate on the show bill. As for Ms. Ronstadt, she has in the past two years become one of the top female vocalists of the day, be it in the folk area, the rock area, or the country area. And for those who may have been wondering, the Linda Ronstadt who debuted with the Stone Poneys is gone, replaced by a more mature, more polished and more confident performer. Ms. Ronstadt’s presence on stage is a delight by itself, but it is her vocal qualities and range which supercede her obvious physical attractiveness. Her speciality is to take songs from other composers and adapt them to her own performance. Her renditions are excellent, as they were in this concert. Taking compositions by, among others, James Taylor, Hank Williams, J.D. Souther, the Eagles and Neil Young, Ms. Ronstadt treated the audience to a 75-minute performance which moved from bailad to rock to folk and back again. Whether the slower ballad material, like ‘Desperado” and “| Believe in You”, or the more uptempo numbers, in the form of “Silver Threads and Golden Needles” and “When Will | Be Loved”, each number the Arizona songtress performed were done superbly and with near perfect quality. Whether she is the top female vocalist can definitely be argued, but her use of her powerful, yet equally sensual voice leaves much room for support on her side. Opening with “Colorado”, she went right into “Silver Threads and Golden Needles” performing both numbers with the same polish and expertise that one would find on her albums, a definite sign of wellbred musical talent. But Ms. Ronstadt saved her strongest and most striking vocal numbers for late in the concert, when many other vocalists might be voice-weary. The late cuts she performed were her classic rendition of the Eagles’ “Desperado”, as well as the vocally demanding “You're No Good”, “When Will | Be Loved”, and even the Marvelettes’ old rocker “Heat Wave” as her fir...c Treating the crowd to not only the songs they were familiar with, but several selections from her coming new release, Ms. Ronstadtkept the show loose and easy and top-notch in quality. She stopped several times during the show to joke with the audience about the abundance of mosquitoes in the outdoor pavilion, as well as sone of the remarks from male members of the crowd. Other selections performed by Ms. Ronstadt were “Willin’,” “lt (Doesn't Matter Any More” and “Faithless Love” off her Heart Like A Wheel album, and “I Can Almost See It,” her hit “Love Has No Pride”, and ‘I Believe in You” off of the Don’t Cry Now album. But the highlights of the show were the performances of “Desperado”, “When Will | Be Loved”, Jimmy Cliff's “Many Rivers to Cross” and her encore number “Heart Like A Wheel”. During the show Ronstadt made it known that among her favorite artists were the Seldom Scene, the Eagles and Little Feat. Ms. Ronstadt’s back-up band char- acterized this flavor. All five musicians were ones which had worked as studio musicians on Ronstadt’s HEART LIKE A WHEEL album. The standouts in the back-up group were David Lindley and Andrew Gold. Lindley moved from guitar to dobro to banjo to fiddle. It was on the fiddle, during the more-rocking numbers, that Lindley really started. In addition to handling the drums, Gold took stints on the rhythm guitar. And Ms. Ronstadt recognizes the talent of her band enough to let them have their solo parts too, which only serve to keep everybody happy and further enhance the arrangement of her performances. A Linda Ronstadt live performance is always a delightful experience. If You haven't seen the artist yet, at your next chance try and take her in next time she is in the area. It will make for an extraordinary evening.

The music industry is still shaking its head in disbelief over the odds-against tout the married couple took to promote their record and themselves into a major act. Armed with nothing more than confidence, the couple, (he’s the Captain and she’s Tennille), invested $250 of their own money to press 500 copies of a record which drew the attention of disc jockeys in L.A. and, eventually, record companies everywhere. As things turned out, their self-promoted single “The Way | Want to Touch You”, written by Toni Tennille remained a regional hit, but “Love Will Keep Us Together’ became an international success. The Captain is Daryl Dragon, a former keyboard player with the Beach Boys, who gave him the debatable title when Dragon showed up one night wearing a sailors cap. Catherine Antoinette “Toni” Tennille was a backup singer on Elton John’s Caribou album and became the Beach Boys’ first “Beach Girl’ when she filled in at the keyboard for a road tour. Toni and Dary! discovered they could make beautiful music together and that was the beginning of a romance and musical partnership. In between Beach Boy tours, the Captain and Tennille began booking themselves into local Los Angeles clubs. In retrospect Toni says, “It was the records we had in mind. We were doing demo work for a friend who owned a recording studio and he gave us a free studio time to cut our own record. We started with a tune | wrote for Daryl called ‘The Way | Want to Touch You.’ The couple took their demo to a small FM station which put it on the air. Phone calls began to come in from listeners wanting to know about them. Encouraged by the interest, the Captain and his mate had additional records pressed. Yor —— ONY eTe] s arn 117 E. Sth St. SOMETHING FOR EVERYBODY COME IN AND BROUSE STUFFED ANAIMALS “We were too embarrassed to go to the record companies,” Toni confided, “so we put it on our own label and sent copies to dee jays up and down California. Then a local distributor helped to saturate the L.A. area.” Suddenly they were besieged with offers from record companies and chose A&M because it allowed them to produce their own work and “because it’t like a college campus where everyone knows everyone else,” Toni enthused. “Even the janitor speaks with the president.” Their first album became a hit before they became known to all but a few within the industry. And while they remained at the top of the music charts for four consecutive weeks, people began askina: “the Captain and who?” ay LOVING COUPLE -- Love has not only kept the Captain (that’s he] People still don’t Know who we are,” says Toni, who married her captain in Febr: ary, 1974. “But we have lots of TV exposure coming up newspaper artic! ~ like yours that wii; be a big heip.” Tr is also a heavy tour schedule planned with the Captain and Tennille opening for their former groupmates, The Beach Boys. They'll also do gigs with Three Dog Night, Paul Williams, Andy Williams and John Davidson.

Otherwise you're not int he family,’”’ he says. Toni also comes from a musical background. She studied classical piano with “a little old lady in Montgomery, Ala.’ for nine years and studied voice Together they sound like a full orchestra. Daryl plays the clarinet, organ, bass, vibes, and synthesizer while she plays the acoustic piano, electric piano, and mini-Moog wynthesizer. She also sings up a storm, something she could not do, she says, if she had not studied voice. Their music, in fact, is so rousing, that they were almost canceled out of their New York engagement at Reno Sweeney's when a neighbor called to complain about the noise. The neighbor was appeased when they agreed to cut the midnight show and lengthen the dinner performance. Still, Toni muses, it’s curious to be sitting on top of a $6 million hit and so unrecognized by the public. While they were appearing in New York, they stayed at the same hotel frequented by the Rolling Stones. One nighf when they returned from a performance, their limousine was beseiged by groupies at the docr. “You should have seen the disappointed faces when the kids realized we weren't the Rolling Stones, and they hadn't the foggiest notion who we were!” Toni relates.

Hightower was ill the opening two weeks of the season, but came back to play in games against Souther Illinois and N.C. State. The Tuesday following the State game Hightower suffered a detached retina, finishing him for the season. The 511, 192-pound native of St. Simons Island, Ga., said it was rough sitting out games, and after midseason he noticed an even bigger change. “For once, | was a college student,” said Hightower. “I could study more per night, had no definite plans about what to do with my time and | wasn’t losing seven and eight pounds per day. “The roughest part was wanting to play, but not really being a part of the’ team, then finding a lot of outside time available to me.” Hightower’s quickness in the Pirate offensive line, which at the time was trying to master the intricacies of the Wishbone, was missed. Hightower downplayed that notion by saying that “there is too much togetherness in that unit for one person to be missed...everybody works too hard.” “The offensive line works harder as a group of this team than any on the team,” said Hightower. “And, as is nature of the game, the line gets less credit though it has to do most of the work. “But it is the people who care and know about what you are doing that you have to please, and they know what the situation is anyway.” Itis evident that there are other things in life than football that interest Hightower when he talks about East Carolina, such as his planned double major in Parks, Recreation & Conservation/Driver Edu- cation. However, he just doesn’t deviate that much from the football theme and the contribution Hightower and the game make towards each other. “East Carolina is at a happy medium stage,” said Hightower. “You are big enough to be recognized but the school isn’t big enough where everyone is just another number. “| enjoy playing football here because of that: you can be an individual on and off the field and you aren't just another number. Therefore, | could tell any recruit the truth: at East Carolina you can enjoy life.” That, in essence, is what Murrell McGee Hightower enjoys the most, with all the trimmings thrown in. He also credited his mother for her keen forsight in giving him something that is probably as great a football asset as his natural quickness. “| weighed just under five pounds when | was bom,” said Hightower. “Mom nicknamed me ‘Tiny Tim’ and the name stuck. | just shortened it to Tim’. “If | were listed in the game program as Murrell McGee, | might have had more problems than a ‘Boy Named Sue’.” There doesn’t seem to be much of a chance that Hightower would be the subject of a popular country-westem recording. He will make enough records of his own. He wants people to remember names like Wayne Bolt and Jimbo Walker ; like Larry Lundy, Ricky Bennett and Matt Mulholland; like Barry Johnson and Clay Bumett, all members of the Pirate offensive line. Hightower had his agonizing moments in 1974, and with his favorite group intact, they will be set to dish out plenty of agony of their own this season.

FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 1/4 SEPTEMBER 1975 a iti te en nn i ne i Golf tryouts to be 54-hole affair East Carolina’s new golf coach, Mac McLendon, has announced his plans for the selection of the 1976 golf team. McLendon announced that the first meeting for all new prospects will be on Sept. 11 in Minges Coliseum. The new prospects will take part in a 54hole qualifying match on September 15, 16 and 18, with the best golfers from this group to participate in a later qualifying match against the four returning golfers. Said McLendon, “We expect 40 guys for the first qualifying rounds at Ayden Golf and Country Club.” This fall tryout will establish the team for the year. McLendon said that nexi year’s schedule will be basically composed of tournament competition, instead of matches against other schools. “It is more advantageous to play in tournament competition because you have more of a variety of talent to compete against,” said McLendon. East Carolina has finished second in the conference the last two years, having won the title in 1971, 1972 and 1973. The four returning golfers from last year are senior Rob Weldon, junior Steve Ridge, and sophomores ‘Keith Miller and Mike Bowermaster. To add to these returning lettermen, McLendon has recruited three top scholarship players. They are Frank Acker, Fayetteville, N.C.; David Davis, Goldsboro, N.C.; and Mike Heafner, Cary, N.C. Heavner is the brother of North Carolina State’s Vance Heafner, and Acker was the State high school golf champion last year. Three non-lettermen golfers return from last year’s team. They are Trip Boinst, John Simer and Mike Jonges. Scharf signs swim recruits East Carolina University head swim- ming coach Ray Scharf has announced the signing of six swimmers to grants-in-aid for the 1375-76 season. The Pirate mentor, who once more guided ECU to the Southern Conference championshio this past season, evidently decided not 19 let the team rest on its laurels. So he recruited some freshmen who could push veterans for positions in the winter months. One of the more notable freshman on the Pirate squad this year will be John Pero a 200-freestyle state finalist from - Statesville, N.C. He wi!l be joined by David Moody, backstroker from Kanata, Ontario, Canada. Two recruits come from Greensboro, where they have been under the tutelage of former ECU great Bob Sawyer: John Tudor, a 200-freestyle state finalist and Lund Sox, the state one-meter diving champion. Joseph Kushy, a 200-freestyler from Plainview, N.Y., and an all-state performer there will also be in the Pirate fold, as will Colin Rooney, a diver from the N.Y. State Military Academy. Scharf will be looking to beef up the Pirate diving and breaststroke corps, which were weak last year.

And I don’t even know Darrell Royal Thoughts of a football season to be can do strange things to a writer's mind. Granted, some argue the mind was strange already, but that isn’t the point. The point is that ECU will mark the opening of its 40th year of participation in “The College Game” Sept. 6 in Raleigh. And there can be no one in Greenville, direct participants in the battle excepted, who can be looking forward to the game as much as this writer. Why? There is really a combination of reasons why “The College Game” (NCAA Promotions 2, World 0) holds such a spell over the free world and, in this case, Greenville. For example, check this original verse: | am hooked, | say! On what? On X’s, and O’s. On hard-driving runners, on accurate kicking toes. On Homecoming Day, on pretty girls. On smiling youngsters, on baton twirls. And if you don’t make the stadium, you can still see Some late aftemoon game on ABC-TV. wae Before the double-knits are returned to the closets in favor of sweaters, a few comments about an enjoyable summer activity that resurfaced in June in Greenville in the form of the North Carolina Collegiate Summer Baseball League. Personal prejudices notwithstanding (and you will read a lot about mine this year), there were some people who worked one and two jobs, went to school all day and then traveled to such scenic spots as Bunn, Smithfield and Red Springs for the same reasons: hope for improvement. Improvement? In their bank accounts? In social status? In their education? The answers are no, hell no and could be. Travel during the summer to the opponent fields was an education in itself, some said. Most, though, said the chance to get in the extra experience and prepare for the 1976 Pirate season was enough to make it worthwhile. Some persons involved thus became improved people, as well as ballplayers. So it was indeed a worthwhile project. From the mosquitos in Wiimington to the bright lights of Bunn, improvement was involved, the players, and they are what the program is all about. aan While Summer League Baseball took up most of this writer's time between school breaks, there were some additional personnel developments that couldn’t be overlooked. Bill Cain, Assistant Director of Athletics and golf coach, has taken over the fortunes of the Pirate tennis team. His golfing assistant for the past two years, MacMcLendon, was elevated to the head job. Now, Cain has a long way to go with the tennis team, as it has won but one Southern Conference tennis match in the past three years. McLendon’s job could be tougher, though, because the Pirate golfers have finished second the past two years. Cain has six placed to climb. There are six places McLendon can drop. This writer will bet on improvement with both teams. eat Probably one of the more interesting developments concerning the Greenville (now don’tlaugh .) area news media is that they will be able to start the second football season in a row with the same sports information director, Ken Smith, thus relieving THE FOUNTAINHEAD of what has been a yearly ritual of writing an introduction about a new SID. aan Now, back to the serious busienss of “The College Game” (NCAA Promotions 4, World 0). After the Pirates go to Carter Stadium, they return to Boone to take on Appalachian State in what will be the first Southern Conference thriller. Two games on the raod before coming home to Ficklen, where the Pirates have not lost since 1971, when Richmond took a 14-7 win. What kind of season will the Pirates have? | am not that crazy, yet. Hooked, yes, but crazy, no. Some people picked East Carolina to repeat as conference champions, while some picked fourth, fifth and even worse finishes. | will predict, though, that on the Day of Nov. 22, 1975, East Carolina will, by approximately 10 p.m., have finished its 40th regular season of competition in “The College Game” [NCAA Promotions 5, World 0]. Before you become irritated at the last statement, remember what.the name of this column is, and not what you thought it was. ean Sports shorts The East Carolina Sports Information office is offering @ new service to East Carolina fans this season.

The Pirates will play the Demon Deacons for five years, starting in 1982. The series continues through 1986, with three of the five games scheduled in Greenville, including the 1982 contest. “We have enjoyed pleasant relation- ships over the years with Wake Forest,” said Stasavich. “The one time we played Wake Forest in football (1963 in Greenville), we had our best gate, until just a few years ago, with an overflow crowd. We look forward to the future and feel this is a step in the right direction in scheduling. It’s especially important due to less travel expense in this time of the energy crisis.” ECU Chancellor Dr. Leo W. Jenkins also expressed great delight in the contract agreement. “We are pleased to renew our sports relationship with Wake Forest University in football. We know that the series of football games we are currently negotiating will create great interest as one of North Carolina’s top collegiate sports events. a) In closing a word to the reader(s) that will be helpful in future weeks concerning the column. Hopefully, it will be better organized after the Pirates of not only the football, but soccer, cross country, swimming, wrestling, basketball, etc., variety have done battlewith the evil monsters from across the land. This, however, will not be guaranteed, this organization, because it may take away from the spontaniety. And if it is objective reportage you may be seeking, the rest of the sports pages contain plenty. This writer does hope, however, that you will send comments, quips, quotes, snide remarks, money, etc., conceming the way you feel about the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat and all that other good stuff in between in the athletic kingdom. So, that’s all for this time. The preceeding column was brought to you unedited in front of your very eyes. Until next Thursday, which will hopefully be the day of this column’s appearance, remember the words of Christina Rosetti: “Better by far you should forget and smile Than you should remember and be sad.” This is true, especially when you are hooked.
