Other than in science and math, there is a general shortage of teaching jobs, according to Brown He also reported that the ECU Regional Development Institute nas over 100 projects on its active list Speaking to the Board on general matters, Dr. Leo Jenkins, ECU chancellor said the SGA and student newspapers are moving rather well and he encouraged professors to speak oul on issues Book-theft becoming a problem at ECU By JOHN DAYBERRY Book-theft at ECU has become a massive problem, according to the Student Supply Store Manager, Joseph O. Clark Every year, ECU students lose thousands of dollars because of book-theft,”’ said Clark And much of this loss could be prevented if students would take a few precautions As soon as the student is sure that he will be using his newly bought books, he should mark them in some way that would enable him to make positive identification of them later This marking procedure, described in the activity calendars provided by the Supply Store, consists of circling certain page numbers in the books, and then recording the numbers for future reference “If your book is stolen, report it to a cashier in the Supply Store immediately,” said Clark “If your book is sold back to us later, we can identify it by your markings “We will also know who sold us the book, since we require that a student shows positive identification, and an activity card before we buy books from him, or her Since many book-thefts occur in the vicinity of the Supply Store, students should put their books in a locker ou'side of the store, instead of leaving them on the shelves, according to Clark When a student is thought to have sold a stolen book to the Supply Store, his or her name is sent to the dean of men, or the dean of women, according to Clark | act as a processor in the case of suspected book-theft said James b Mallory, dean of men ‘Book-theft is an Honor Council offense, and it is the council which tries the suspecied thirf ‘Personally, | have no sympathy for See Book-theft, page 7. to boost the per capita income noted The ECU Chancellor sees race for the Democratic nominat with a running for the post Jenkins lists Jim Hunt, Ed Jimmy Green, Skipper Bowles and Strickland as contenders and alsc that he expected at candidate and one woman jn the ra a WIG governor gang of and least one But, Jenkins stressed that he was not a declared candidate and that a decision to run was yet to be made | am thinking on that line nov final decision will be made somet vext year,” Jenkins contended Med school striving to meet 1976 deadline East Carolina University Me School officials are striving to admit september 19 Dear f first class of students according to William E the ECU med school For the first class to be med school must have a two. chairmen of the clinical department carefully worked out plans for a residen program to begin not later than the first class martriculates, according to Laupus To establish a medical school many steps must be taken Among other things, an program at the graduate level must be established along with a post graduate education internship and program and a program of continui educaiton as weil,” said Laupus To do this a faculty must be recruited in basic and Clinical sciences.

FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 5/23 SEPTEMBER 1975 Ediitorials;Commentary Board action overdue It was along time coming but finally the Board of Trustees has seen the light and agreed to allow the use of alcoholic beverages on campus--legally that is. For many years, since the invention of alcoholic beverages or the founding of this campus, whichever came first, alcoholic beverages have been consumed on campus. Now, for the first time, such consumption will be legal--at least in certain locations that will be named later by administration officials. Approval by the Board on the alcoholic consumption issue is perhaps the biggest student social gain since the more liberal visitation policy was approved several years. And, approval brings another ECU student social policy up to standards with those at other major state institutions. Alcoholic consumption on campus has been a norm at many campuses, both public and private, for many years. And, finally, in 1975, legalized beer drinking has arrived at ECU. The Board of Trustees had been wrestling with the question for several ny aths. The main concern of the group appeared to be the portion of student p: posal that would have allowed free distribution of beer and wine at campus events. This proposal was cranked out by student government officials who wanted to circumvent present laws which restrict the sale of such beverages at campus events. The Board was unanimously opposed to this proposal, and on that we must agree with the Board. Student fees can be used in a lot better manner than buying beer and wine. While we agree that the availability of such beverages at many events would certainly be a boost, using fees for their purchase is not a proper use of SGA revenue. Using student fees to support clubs, yearbooks and newspapers is one thing. But, to open up a tap room is something else. Approval by the Board brings a new day in the social order to the campus. The Board took the action relying on the Administration to set up responsible rules for alcoholic beverage consumption and relying on the student for responsible behavior when consuming that alcohol. We will now wait and see if both sides can live up to that responsibility--most notably the consumer. Some experiment When ECU's football! team gets to Southern Illinois this week for the football game, we suggest to Pat Dye and his coaching staff to keep the Pirates gridders clear of any experimental labs at Sl. Seems like they have a real drug-sex experiment going on that probably a few of the Pirates might be interested in. News stories of a few weeks ago told of federal funding for an experiment at Southern Illinois calling for male volunteers to inhale marijuana fumes and then view porno films. The object of the experiment, according to the government at least, is to test sexual responses of the male under the influence of drugs. When news of the governmental project got out, there was something of a mild uproar in some parts of the Carbondale community. More than a few citizens thought it was a waste of money. Any Pirate football player, or coach for that matter, who does not return to Greenville by Sunday, will be assumed to have made a great sacrifice and donated his body to science, for at least a while. ee | “Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a govemment without newspapers, or newspapers without government, | should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.” Editor-In-Chief--Mike Taylor Managing Editor-Tom Tozer Business Manager-- Teresa Whisenant Production Manager- Sydney Green Advertising Manager--Mike Thompson News Editor-- -Jim Elliott Entertainment Editor--Brandon Tise Features Editor-Jim Dodson Sports Editor--John Evans Thomas Jefferson Fountainhead is the student newspaper of East Carolina University sponsored by the Student Govemment Association of ECU and appears each Tuesday and Thursday during the school year.

The guide lists Greenville eating establishments by division, their location, hours of operation, general menu and other valuable information about their alcoholic consumption rules and their check cashing policy. And, the new publication presents the students with a few off-the-cuff editorial comments about the quality of the food to be found at the establishments. Comments like “the food is not worth the drive, service is super-slow and food is usually hot and pretty good” tell the students what he really needs to know in a hurry about a place to calm his growling stomach. The guide also gives students valuable information, especially in dealing with check cashing policy. More than a few students pay for meals, and about everything else for that matter, with a check. And, unfortunately more than a few places wil! not accept checks these days, especially from students. The guide can tell the student whether or not this particular business will accept the check. And, if it stopped tthe: guide would be well worth while fromthis aspect alone. But, the hours of operation, general menu and those editorial comments serve to make the guide a most useful publication for ECU students. This is the type of program that we like to see the SGA sponsor. Guides for other areas that the student consumer is involved in should also be forthcoming. Food for Thought might not make most people’s top ten reading list, but it is well worth the time for ECU students to browse through this guide. | sii WASH newly bie already Ic | for years | dental car The r getting rc dental su! like the Congress' Senate field, DI R-Ore., é R-N.H., a smiles re top-notch Former departmer patronize foreign di clinic.

The rooster of legislators illegally getting root-cana! work, deluxe fillings, dental surgery and even new plates reads like the leadership pages of the Congressional Directory. Senate Majority Leader Mike Mans- field, D-Mont., Senator Mark Harfield, R-Ore., and ex-Senator Norris Cotton, R-N.H., are only a few of the solons whose smiles reflect free custom care at the top-notch Navy Yard clinic. Former Health, Education and Welfare departmental dentists, chose instead to patronize the Navy. Even prominent foreign diplomats were sneaked into the Clinic. Navy regulations, and human decency, require dentists to take care of patients in ‘a true emergency. Such appears to be the case when Sen. William Proxmire, D-Wis.., went to the clinic he broke his tooth on a prune pit in a Senate restaurant. Sen. Charles Percy, F-Ill., also feels he comes under the emergency rule because he needed a filling replaced and wasn’t scheduled to see his regular dentist in Chicago for a month. Rep. L.H. Fountain, D-N.C., says his treatment for a cracked tooth a few days ago was also an “emeraency situation”. But what of Mike Mansfield, usually as austere as his spare frame with the taxpayers money? After treatment of an abcessed tooth, he has now become a repeat patient of the Navy Yard’s nationally known dentist, Capt. Michal Brenyo. Sen. William Hathaway, D-Me., is also a frequent patient and has been treated for gum surgery and root-canal work by the solicitious Navy dentists. Hatfield underwent even more extensive work. Originally he dropped in at the clinic for “swelling of the mouth”. But over a period of several years, Brenyo has done much of Hatfield's dental work, including costly root canal. House Speaker Carl Albert, D-Okla., insists his visits to the clinic were for “minor dental work.” Besides, his retired military pay status may make the work legal. Senator COtton, we have learned, had a dental plate repaired and reportedly had a new one made. And Rep. Edward Boland, D-Mass., has had extensive gum invigoration work. To their credit, all the prominent patients acknowledged their visits. Few were as frank as Finch, a former chief aide to Richard Nixon. Not only did he go, Finch said but he “saw a number of Congressmen while | was down there.” Dental experts no longer in the clinic Congressional dental rip-off ore! mecearar aes have fumed openly abut the illegal work, but our reporter Gary Cohn visited the clinic and found everything but an “open wide” policy. Commanding officer Stewart Elder, who has personally greeted such visitors as Hatfield, successfully dodged all our queries. When Cohn called him at home, the Navy captain refused even to speak to him. Nevertheless, we have discovered that Elder justified the improper treatment of high government figures _ by telling his colleagues it would help the clinic at budget time. Footnote: Several of the patients said they were unaware they were doing anything wrong. Yet even some of the “emergency” case is of dubious legality. We asked Capt. Brenyo whether we, for example could get a filling on an emergency basis. “No way,” he sputtered. SPY TRAP—Despite warming relations between Cuba and the U.S. ,the relentless espionage game goes on. One of Fidel Castro’s intelligence agents sought to enlist a Cuban residing in the U.S. As it happened, the would be enlistee was already a U.S. intelligence informant and turned over his instructions to American agents. We have obtained a copy of this intriguing spy “primer’. “The method (of communication) is to write in an invisible form,” begins the note. A simple mix of half fresh lemon juice and half water is recommended.” The spy is instructed to write a “cover letter with a ball point pen (do not use pencil or fountain pen”). The cover letter should be dull enough to get by any censors or counterspies, but logical enough not to raise suspicions, the spy mini-manual says. On the back of the “cover” letter, the invisible ink is penned in with “a small stick like the ones used for throat examinations. Sharpen it (but) do not wet the stick to much.” To prevent a “fingerprint” from the heel of the hand which one puts on a letter when writing, “arrange on top of the paper...a blank sheet.” The folded final letter must be handled delicately or “you will remove the invisible ink.” It was to be sent to a room on 21st Street in Havana, using a false return address. Finally, when Havana sends the next instructions, also in invisible ink, the spy is “to pass a hot iron on the white part (of the paper).” The Havana agent enclosed a cash payment for his new “recruit”, with a grim if subtle warning as a““P.S. | forgot to tell you,” it says, “I have been with your family and all, including the old lady are fine.” Copyright, 1975, United Feature Syndicate, Inc. “OUR FUNDS HAVE BEEN CUr BACK 50 MUCH THAT ALL I CAN OFFER IS A LITLE MOTHERLY ADVICE!” Thought for the day By DANIEL PREVETTE Phillippians 4:19 “And my God shali supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. We are assured here that our Father will supply our needs. Mark 11:24 tells us that when we pray, we should pray believing, and our prayers will be granted. There is awesome power in prayer. Bob Mumford, in his book The Purpose of Temptation , gives an illustration of this. While he was a student, he and his wife, and his baby daughter were all living in a tiny trailer. Their only support was a monthly veteran’s check of eighty dollars and occasional gifts from concerned people. They had no excess support; they had just what they needed. One day his check didn’t arrive, the gifts stopped, and in a few days they were down to eating “cre m of wheat with canned milk, without sugar.” Mumford looked at his wife and said, “Judy, | don't understand why the Lord seems to have failed us.” His wife laughed, and said, “! understand perfectly well. Remember last week when we discussed who was providing for us. Well | was never quite sure it was the government, those nice people, or the Lord. So i asked the Lord if it was Him providing, to please give me a sign by cutting off our supply.” That evening when they retumed from a meeting, they found a box of groceries and an envelop with a twenty-dollar bill inside...exactly the amount needed to restock their cupboard!

Only through your participation and interest will there be an expansion of available activities, programs, and events. The possibilities for recreational activities at Mendenhall Student Center are vast, but we need your input to guide our program towards your needs and interests. As Kecreation Director here at Mendenhall Student Center, | feel that our programs should be geared towards activities where students of similar interest and similar ability can come together and participate in an organized fashion. We try to avoid duplication of events already sponsored by other organizations or departments on campus. Since there are so many clubs and organized activities on campus, | again State that student input is of utmost importance. At Mendenhall Student Center, the Recreation floor consists of an eight lane bowling facility, a billiards room, a table tennis room, a T.V. viewing area, an amusement games area, a games room, a coffeehouse area, and an arts and crafts area to be completed soon. All of these activities, plus table games and games, are offered on a leisurely daily basis.

Reflections on sixty years of dorm life It might be hard to imagine being a part of ECU for more than 30 years housekeeping employees Hattie Bell and Mary Wilkes can attest to the changes the campus has undergone in the past three decades. Both women, now on the White Dorm staff, started their dorm careers in Cotton Hall. Mrs. Wilkes spent 28 years there before going to White four years ago. Miss Bell was in Cotton over 10 years, and in Ragsdale for 18 years before being transferred to White. MISS HATTIE BELL Mrs. Wilkes cited the abolishment of many school rules as responsible for the major changes she has noticed. Miss Bell agrees, saying, “There never used to be any smoking or drinking among the girls, at least not so anybody would know about it.” Both women emphasize the gradual reduction of dress codes as a major transformation. “When | first came, the girls knew they’d better have a robe if they went out in the hallway,” says Mrs. Wilkes. Miss Bell recalls a time when bare feet were considered scandalous. Thursday's topic: MRS. MARY WILKES The social aspect of life in the women’s | dorms have undergone major innovations, | according to Mrs. Wilkes and Miss Bell. “The girls always had to do their | courting in the lobby of Cotton in the old days,” says Miss Bell. “If they were caught | kissing their boyfriends, they could count on being sent home.” “If the girls went out in public they had to be with other girls. They never went to town alone,” says Mrs. Wilkes. “The students were more considerate in these days,” according to Miss Bell. “They cleaned up their mess, and emptied their own trash.” Both women cite relaxed rules on cooking in the rooms as a problem. “Between the smell of cigarette butts, liquor, and rotton food, sometimes emptying trash is just sickening,” says Mrs. Wilkes. Mrs. Wilkes remembers many times in the near and distant past when dorm residents have come to her with various | problems. “I tell them to do what I’ve always | done; keep on trying, and depend on the | Lord for help, and | always pray for them a little bit myself.” -Pat Coyle comm of our doubt of mor anyon then, | book, discus Our Wc time. | to ma Georg Ger for m label t blocks can b persor amour of wor part of idea ai words of whi with e corner to cove which instruc the Ar use: | Maybe us.

We are sometimes so caught. up in a conversation that we spend very little time formulating our thoughts; the spoken message might very well come out as a short, slang expression intended solely for the interpretation of the receiver. We pack a lot of meaning into so few words, and often this results in the breakdown of communications. It was said several years ago that there was a “communication gap” between young people and their elders; maybe today there might exist a “gap” between young people and their peers. In one day, we come in contact with people, some of us more than others, and with nearly everyone of them we engage in some form of communication. It could take place without your knowing or being aware of it; watching out for it is something most of us seldom do, producing a breakdown in communi- cations. How do you get your message across? Do you get your message across? Rapid communications have become a large part of our society. Pick up a phone, if you doubt my word, and with the right amount of money in your pocket you may speak to anyone anywhere in the world. Blame it, then, on the pace of our society. In his book, Future Shock, Alvin Toffler discusses change and how it is affecting our world. People seem to want to get their message across using the least amount of time. Running words together, they seem to make reality out of “Newspeak” in George Orwell’s 1984. Getting through to someone is difficult for many peopie. Most speech courses label the interference “noise”, that which blocks the transmission of a message. It can be either physical or mental; ther persons communicating determine the amount of “noise” in a conversation. Use of words and tone of voice make up a large part of the intended meaning. You have an idea and you wish to present it. Are your words going to express the total meaning of what you have to say? Do you speak with emphasis, or do you shrink into a corner? Say what you mean and do not try to cover it up with fancy phrases or words which have simpler meanings. When instructing their men in communications, the Armed Forces have an expession they use: KISS - “Keep’ It Simple, Stupid”. Maybe that would be good advice to all of us. Ever get bogged down when trying to decipher the words in a textbook, or did that newspaper columnist seem to be writing just above the heads of his readers? Lost meanings are found everywhere. People think that they are doing you a favor by being “scholarly” when actually they are making business for the dictionary manufacturers. As stated before, change is a big part of the way we live now. Persons change jobs, move from town to town, and in keeping with “the times”, our language has undergone a rapid change. Words have speech of Americans and quoted many sources. But even Time is not perfect, as Edwin Newan pointed out to them several weeks later in a letter to the publication. Television and radio have a major influence over our lives, and what we hear, we uSually repeat. Here is something to consider: do you have enough influence to become flexible, taking on two or three unintended meanings. A most recent example would be the word “rebate”. President Ford announced a tax rebate. Then care dealers had rebates. | heard the other day of someone offering a rebate on your time spent with them. We are all guilty of using the latest terms and expressions; we simply pick them up from our peers and those around us. Parents continually complain that their children cannot communicate with them (the “communication gap” results in a “generation gap”?). Colleges moan and groan when their incoming students cannot read and write properly. “Far-out”, “funky”, and “heavy” are examples of words only a select group of persons use. Many expressions lead a “double-life”, working one way from one group and another way for another group. Can you dig it? Then there is the ever-present demon in our current speech, “you know’ (or, as it is sometimes heard, “ya know’). Edwin Newman, in his book Strictly Spoaking , questions the use of this phrase by king why, if he already knew, was the p. 3on telling him? Listening to the radio one ay | heard an interview with a sports figure. During the one minute talk the man used “you know” seven times. Going for a new world record, maybe? It has appeared that everyone has suddenly gained an interest in better English. Colleges are going back to teaching basic sentence structure to their students who have missed it in high school. One college dropped the application requirement and, instead, asked its applicants to write an essay on what they had done with their life, and what they looked forward to in college, and what they had planned after graduation from college. This college has restored their application requirement after they found that many of the essays were poorly written! Most recently, Time magazine has published a feature article entitled “Can't Anyone Speak English Here?” They pointed out many of the faults of the affect our style of speech and grammar? The group “War” in their song “Why Can't We Be Friends?” has a section which says, in effect, “If | know what I’m saying and the person I’m talking to understands me, why should | change?” The character Henry Higgins, in the Broadway musical “My Fair Lady’, comments on forms of speech: “Use proper English and you're regarded as freak!” The dramatic change in language might be well-expressed in the following lines seen on a professor's door. “To be, or not to be” Shakespeare “To be is to do” Sartre “Do-be, do-be, doo‘ Sinatra Although we cannot all be English majors, we can try to improve the way we communicate with others: our friends, teachers, and parents. On a promotional poster, the American Telegraph and Telephone System has written these words: “To communicate is the beginning of understanding.” Wise advice for all of us. ca Catsup downpour (CPS)--While other city dwellers choke on pollution, some Oakland, Ca. residents wash catsup out of their hair instead.

Envision an average Sunday. You have gotten over Saturday night’s hangover, and you're beginning to yearn for some diversion from your numdrum existence. The only thing standing between you and excitement is your empty wallet. The lack of funds would rule out jetting to D.C. for the Redskins game, or to New York for Xaviera Hollander’s Sunday brunch. In its continuous effort to serve and enlighten the EZU student body, the Fountainhead has compiled this list of cheap, but worthwhile entertainment available in the Greenville area. 1) Hitchhike to Falkland and pass the day talking to the drunks at the local “package store”. If you’re lucky, Someone may even treat you to a Red-White-and-Blue. 2) Chip in for some weenies and marshmallows. Hike across Fifth Street to Chancellor Jenkins’ house and stage a front-lawn cookout. Dream loss (CPS)--Losing the ability to dream can mean a lowering of one’s self-esteem and the villain may be too many hours in front of a television set, according to a study by the Australian National University Center for Continuing Education. The report warns that excessive television watching may not only alienate the viewer from society but also seems to stimulate impulsive, aggressive behavior. The report also suggested that losing the ability to dream can lead to a confused sense of identity and momentary forgetfulness. Television programs, especially those in color, appear to be a “ise of the increasing use of tranquilizers ‘-bituates, the report concluded. 4) Rip off everything your miserable roommate owns, and hold a yard sale on the mall. 5) Invite over your more creative buddies & place obscene phone calls.(A classic is the “This is the health department, you are believed to have v.d.” routine.) 6) Build a 25-foot papier-mache great white shark and sneak it into the Minges pool. If you can’t get into the pool carrying a huge fish, try floating it down the Tar River. 7) Practice exotic dancing in front of your dorm window; if and only if there is a receptive audience on the street below. (You'll need a sun lamp or other type of spotlight apparatus.) 8) Roll your own cigarette in a public place and watch how the police suddenly appear as you light up. 9) Create your own version of the “Towering Inferno” flood scene by arranging to have every toilet in your dorm flushed simultaneously. 10) Wallpaper your room, using rubber cement and old issues of the Fountainhead.

Accreditation of a medical school is very important to the faculty also. “The accreditation process is a review process by the Liaison Committee for Medical Education (LCME) which derives from the American Association of Medical Colleges (AAMC) and the American Medical Association (AMA),” said Laupus explaining the process the ECU med school must go through to obtain accreditation. “Both (the AAMCand AMA) have a very strong sense of responsiblity for maintenance of high quality standards in medical education.” Representatives of the LCMA will come to ECU for an accreditation visit, according to Laupus. “They will review the faculty in terms of its teaching ability, peer reputation and research productivity,” said Laupus. “They will judge the school’s program and curriculum. They will judge in the qualitative and quantitative sense the facilities for teaching which includes office space, laboratories, classrooms and the hospital facilities. “And, in addition, they will judge the residency training program, and the continuing education program for practicing physicians, among other things.

Alan Cranston [D-CA] In most parts of the country, a person caught with as little marijuana as one joint is still officially a “criminal,” and will have a life-long criminal record to prove it. But efforts to decriminalize marijuana gained momentum this past summer with five states making major reforms in_ their marijuana laws. Another state gave constitutional protection to persons who possess marijuana only in their homes and two major federal marijuana reform bills are awaiting action in Congress. Five states--Alaska, California, Colorado, Ohio and Maine—-will not consider possession of small amounts of pot a civil offense, dropping criminal records and jail sentences for possession. Instead, a maximum fine of $100 (except in Maine, where the fine for possession of any amount of marijuana for personal use is $200) will be imposed. The laws are patterned after the legislation of Oregon, which in 1973 became the first state to decriminalize pot. In Alaska, laws against pot were weakened still further when the state Supreme Court ruled that possession of marijuana by adults in the home fell under CLitssddden dae a AwIN rinks LLLLEALELEEEL FLEE ALL ESSERE recreation center CALL LALELE 7a Wed. night WE LYLLAASEOAEELEILLAG DL A AEPSPESTL A PSPS SES MAILS ETE C0 fc L LMICALLELLLEL SALE ELELELELLEEDEL YE STOPS POPP SILNT S/S 77 Sept. 26 Grand Opening of Our Roller Skating Rink SCCreree ee eee eeeeePeeeLere Les esas er ss Meeting : Prospective ECU Club Hockey Players Tues.

Meanwhile, two measures dealing with marijuana reform are awaiting action in the U.S. Senate. One bill, sponsored by Jacob Javits (R-N.Y.), Alan Cranston (D-CA.) and others in a bi-partisan coalition, calls for the reduction of marijuana penalties to a civil offense punishable by a fine not to exceed $100. At the same time, an amendment dealing with marijuana decriminalization is being pushed alongside the massive new Federal Criminal Code now under consideration by the Senate. A product of the Nixon and Ford administration, the revised code, if enacted, would penalize possessors of any amount of marijuana with 30-day jail sentence and/or a fine of up to $10,000 unless the decriminalization amendment is included. Two similiar measures are currently under review by sub-committees in the House of Representataives.

Whether or not this extra money is worth the program is a matter of debate, but Dr. Wayne Edwards, the new director of the intramural sports, is convinced that the program is worth the money the students were forced to put into it. Edwards, who came to ECU from Appalachian, brought along his assistant Ms. Ann Lowdermilk, who will be in charge of the women’s intramurals. Edwards came to ECU because he felt the need for improvement. “| came here because the program needs improvement,” said Edwards. Edwards plans to use the money provided by the students for the improvement. Edwards is introducing three new programs this year. The co-recreational program, he feels, is the most important. ‘| think it is horrible that men are on one side of campus and women are on the other side,” said Edwards. This program will consist of tennis, racquetball, Co-Rec Sports Carnival, inner-tube water basketball, badiminton, volleyball, horseshoe mixed doubles and archery. Edwards believes that the students will enjoy participating in sports together. S FEATURING: Inner-tube Water Basketball is also new to ECU but has been doing very well in Appalachian. This will fall under the co-rec program. Inner-tube Water Basketball will take place in October. The third new program this year is the Co-Rec Sports Carnival which is a take-off on the TV show, “Almost Anything Goes”. There will be plenty of unusual events for men and women students, September 29 through October 9, when the carnival will be held Both gyms will be open 7 days a week with a supervisor at all times to keep non-students out and to keep discipline. Monday through Friday, Memorial will be open from 4 p.m. - 11 p.m. and Minges will be open from 6:30 p.m. - 11 p.m. except during basketball season. On Saturday, both gyms will be open from 9 a.m. - 9 p.m. and on Sunday from 1 p.m. - 9 p.m. Students will be able to check out equipment in both gyms. This includes basketballs, tennis racquets, golf clubs and volleyballs. Edwards says there will be better and more equipment within the next 4 months. There will be a sports medicine trainer at every intramural sports event this year. Edward feels that this is very important to the students to have a special aid, in case of an injury.

It does not matter if a student likes to participate in team sports or just wants to play tennis, golf or go swimming, there is something for every student offered by intramural sports. Edwards does want to see more Students participating and hopes to have 75 per cent of the student body participating in intramural sports within the next 3 years. If there is a sports program which is not in effect now and enough students would like to see it started, Edwards Says they will gladly try it out. Any program which is not going well will be dropped in order to emphasize the programs which the students enjoy. Library Science department hires new faculty members Dr. Gene D.

This accounts largely for the massive number of people who went to the movies during Hollywood’s spectacular days of the twenties and thirties. Those audiences went to see actors and actresses in movie roles that glorified almost every human trait and action. The popularity of these actors and actresses (who were almost trapped inside Hollywood's “‘star system”) was assured if they made their own personal lives an extension of their movie roles. Today, partly because of the large youth market, film characters are assuming the role of the anti-hero, who's actions on the screen illustrate a desperate struggle for an identity of some kind. The search for this identity manifests itself in the characters action. The ultimate failure of the anti-hero character to establish an identity for himself becomes obvious as his actions become more and more pitiful and he keeps insisting on how great things are going. In Shampoo, Warren Beatty, along with script writer Robert Towne, has created a character that fits into the anti-hero mold. From watching Beatty in Shampoo one can’t help but feel that his role as George the character is not completely divorced from Beatty the actor. Beatty achieved this blend of character and actor by creating a role for himself that fits his own life style. The film takes place on election eve in 1968 and pictures of Nixon and Agnew keep reappearing throughout the film. George (Warren Beatty) is a Beverly Hills hair dresser, who caters to the women of southern California in more ways than one. George puts on a display of almost superhuman virility as he manages to hop in and out of bed with more girls than would seem possible. George’s virility is matched only by his ability to make up feeble excuses and meager lies that keep him out of hot water for a while. The plot revolves around George wanting to open up his own hair dressing salon and his subsequent efforts to stay on good terms with the people who can make it possible. The only problem is that George's benefactor is having an affair with Jackie (July Christie) one of George’s old girlfriends. George, by the way, is sleeping with his benefactors wife, unknown to him of course and he has a steady girlfriend Jill, (Goldie Hawn) on the side. All of these people end up at the same party with obviously disasterous results. If all of this lustful action sounds a little thin as a plot for a serious movie then you are right. Beatty (who also helped produce the film) has structured the film so that the rich society of which he is so much a part is held up to ridicule. The effect Beatty and director Hal Ashby have achieved is excellent. Ashby has done a good job putting into cinematic terms the shallow views of the self centered people who surround George as well as: the political candidates. It is probably no coincidence that the movie takes place on election eve. If there are any direct political statements in the film however, they are too muddled to say anything worthwhile. Except that the people who surround even the president himself are just as confused as George. As the night wears on and George finds himself deeper and deeper in trouble with his lady friends so to it seems that the country is falling deeper and deeper in trouble as Nixon increases his lead in the presidential race. Such statements of political parallelism would not have been possible without previous knowledge of the Watergate affair. Using this type of hindsight in a foresight situation, such as the situation the movie is trying to project is not good or valid satire. It works only as a comic parallel and has no value as any kind of satire. It is almost ironic that the strong point in Shampoo is also its weak point. Perhaps the most disturbing thing about the film is the shallowness of not only George but also all the characters around him. The women George sleeps with all seem a little insipid and they listen to his lies because he appeals to their vanity. Jil! is torn between taking a modeling assignment in Egypt and staving with George. She finally realizes George’s game but only after she has been hit over the head with the evidence. Jackie still feels strongly about George but she also realizes that her financial problems are over if she stays with her current lover. It is also this shallowness that adds to the charm and easiness of George as well as giving the film itself a light touch. George’s shallow character and his ultimate loss of all his girlfriends are what make him an anti-hero. George builds a myth around himself through his sexual victories and not only is he caught up in his own myth but everybody around him feels the same. At one point Jackie says that the reason she left him was because he was always so happy. This is evidence of the myth affecting other people. George is eventually snapped out of his believing in his own myth by the death of one of his friend’s sons. At this point George has a chance for salvation and he tries to get Jackie to marry him but it is too late. George wakes up too late to save himself from the alienation he fears to much. Pointer Sisters :Steppin Right right back By KIM GARFIELD Pop Scene Service Like the title of their new hit album, The Pointer Sisters are Steppin’. Right back into the limelight. After a year of major setbacks, including the illness of youngest sister June and a lengthy law suit with their former record company, the talented quartet are once again drawing the kind of public and critical adulation that earned them gold albums and a Grammy award. Like the high-heeled sneakers on their album cover, their clothes are still campy chic. But the songs show a broader range of their imagination, spirit and skill. “When you're first getting business you're afraid to say too much ‘cause they tell you you don’t know anything,” said Ruth Pointer, following an SRO concert in New York which marked the return of June Pointer to the sisters’ heavy concert schedule after a six-month absence. “But now we've reached the point where we can pick our own material and do the things we used to pay others to do for us,” she continued. “Steppin’ is the result. ‘Cause we are. We're movin’ and we're learnin’ and we're growing.” “And we're writing more,” said Anita, strolling into the New York hotel suite with Bonnie. The only sister not present was June, who still needs to get a much rest as possible. into the a eaghemene — z Overcoming obstacles is nothing new for the Pointer Sisters. They've been “steppin” since they were little girls born in the slums of Oakland, Calif., bone poor. Like so many other black singers, the girls first sang in church, in their father's congregation. The Reverend Elton Pointer and his wife, Sarah, were very strict parents who only let their daughters sing hymns and gospels. “We were so poor we used to amuse ourselves by playing ‘house’ and dressing up in grandma's clothes. Then we'd put on talent shows in the kitchen, pretending the table was a piano,” Bonnie recalled. When the girls entered high school they still wore grandma’s clothes -- the kind of outlandish 30's outfits that have since become their trademark. Bonnie and June were the first to try singing professionally. As “The Pointer Sisters, A Pair,” they got their first job singing at Oakland’s Leamington Hotel. Eventually Anita and Ruth joined in and the Pointers were singing together just as they did when they were children in their father’s church. “The folks were really scared about our intentions,” Ruth confided. “They thought we wouldn't be accepted and they didn't want us to go through the hurts.” They hurt plenty. At the urging of their first “manager” the sisters gathered up all their possessions and headed for Houston to make their fortune. But promised gigs never materialized, scheduled recording sessions never happened a finally, without a dime to their name, they wired back to San Francisco for money to get home. As Anita explained it, “We wired a guy we were told to contact in case of emergency. He turned out to « 2 David Rubinson who's still producing our album to this day.” Rubinson came to the rescue and gave the sisters their first session work as backup singers with Cold Blood and the tlvin Bishop group. Next came national appearances with Dave Mason, more backup sessions with Grace Slick and Tai Mahal, an finally their first solo appears ce at the Troubadour in Los Angeles. “Our clothes caused as much attention as Our singing,” said Bonnie, laughingly.

Blues for Allah is the result of the Dead’s re-evaluation of their musical direction and six months of ,atient work at Bob Weir's studio. The new aibum represents as sharp a break from the yntemporary music scene as Anthem Of The Sun did in 1968. Until 1974, however, the Dead basically played established musical forms (Jazz, Blues, Country, etc.) and interpreted those styles in a unique nanner. The problem which they onfronted was one of choice. They could back to roots” and play established yyms again, or they could break new ‘ound. The Dead opted for the latter irse. As Jerry Garcia has stated in ‘cent interviews, the band has sought to 2ak away from what he termed as nusical cliches. Blues for Allah is thus based upon new tonal systems developed by the Grateful Dead. The album also marks the return of percussionist Mickey Hard to the band. Evidence of the Dead’s new synthesis of established forms and their tonal systems is especially apparent in the first three Soteh ptetet “i Sa, ee, ey selections. “Help On the Way”, “Slipknot!", and “Franklin's Tower’ are fused together in the-vocal-instrumental - vocal format employed in the Dead’s concerts. “Help On the Way” is a jazzy piece in which Jerry Garcia’s leads intertwine nicely with Bob Weir's modified chop style on rhythm guitar. “Franklin's Tower’ is a deceptively simple tune set in an asymmetrical structure. The light, bouncy, almost reggae beat is attributal in large part to the organ work of Keith Godchaux. Further Latin influences are noticeable in the rhythm section on the following instrumentals, “King Solomon’s Marbles” and “Stronger Than Dirt of Milkin’ The Turkey”. Mickey Hart’s percussion is in no small part responsible for this effect. The overall impression created is quite novel since Garcia, Weir, and Godchaux play essentially in a “spacey” manner instantly recognizable to those who have attended Grateful Dead concerts. The first side ends with a Weir-Barlow selection entitled “The Music Never Stopped”. This is as close to a Standard rock number as one will hear on Blues for Allah. Bob Weir is featured on lead vocal and Steven Schuster on saxophone. The vocal harmonies, especially those of Donna Godchaux, are quite good. The second side begins wit what is 3) ee te BE HE oe Bee aE "te. rc: undoubtedly the best piece contained in the album. “Crazy Fingers” represents the best recorded lyrics yet written by Robert Hunter. “Help On The Way”, “Franklin's Tower’ and “Blues for Allah” are also Garcia-Hunter compositions and of excellent quality. Yet “Crazy Fingers” is clearly superior. Hunter's images superlatively enhance the waltzy, sentimental mood inherent in Garcia's music. Not enough can be said about the incredible tightness of the band and the gentle strength of the vocals. “Sage and Spirit”, a Weir composition, forms a bridge between the first and latter portion sof the album. Steven Schuster’s reedwork prepares the listener for the eastern flavor of the music to follow. The title song, “Blues for Allah”, begins with a typical blues intro but quickly becomes much more. The vocal portion is in an eastern style but as Blues for Allah” runs smoothly into “Sandcastles and Glass Camels”, the instrumental jam becomes spacier than any previous recordings or possibly anything yet performed in concert. The jam progresses into the final track, entitled “Strange Occurences In the Desert”. This number proceeds into a blues progression in which a vocal chant provides a focal point from which Donna Godchaux and Jerry Garcia expand. The concert-like format of the last three album tracks is completed as the album ends with a few s used on SAIL Students Make your appointment now for your YEARBOOK PORTRAITS at Wright Annex 10:00-3:00 or call 758-6501 after 3:00 Wednesday September 24 - Friday September 26 bars from “Blues for Allah”.

Hopefully this new arrangement will give the Grateful Dead an opportunity to proceed from this fine new beginning without becoming bogged down in business hassles as before. Since bassist Phil Lesh, the Godchauxs, Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir are working on their own musical projects, the eclectical tradition of the Grateful Dead continues. We can therefore eagerly await new musical syntheses in the future.

Les Strayhorn may sign with Atlanta By ROBIN SMITHERS Staff Writer Former East Carolina University and Dallas Cowboy running back Les Strayhorn, now in the process of signing up with the Atlanta Falcons, had some problems at the beginning of this year's season Earlier this summer things looked very bright for Strayhorn. Tom Landry, head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, called Strayhorn in late May, asking him to come to Dallas and attend quarterback school Most believed this was an indication of a more active season this year. Strayhorn attended the school, and when training camp opened in California, he had his foot in the door for a starting position. Suddenly, things started tumbling down. Only two weeks into the pre-season, Strayhorn was injured in a game and sufferea separated rib cartilage, as well as a broken rib During the first week of September, Strayhorn started considering the possibility of being traded, and possibly of being cut On September 9, Strayhorn was released from the Cowboys. Now, he and his agent would just have to wait for calls, and start bargaining with the teams from which they received calls o i On September 11, Strayhorn received a call from the Atlanta Falcons. They offered nothing worth looking into. Two days later, they called back, a little more interested this time, but still no bait.

ECU Continued from page 18. missed a field goal attempt to the right. The rest of the quarter the two teams traded punts and fumbles, making more mistakes than headway. The first score came in the second quarter. A 30-yard pass from Conaty to Hawkins brought the Pirates to the Indian’s 30. The next play Hawkins took it all the way in on a pitchout to the left. Conaty added the point. A little razzle-dazzle in the form of an on-side kick gave the Pirates the ball back and. they kept it until just before the half, when Lou Case intercepted a pass. The Pirates received the second half kick and began a 16-72 yard drive that ended with seven points. From the nine, Conaty hit Gallaher, who gracefully danced into the endzone. Conaty’s kick was good to put ECU ahead 14-0. The final score came with just 56 seconds left, and again it was Conaty t Gallaher. Gallaher made a diving catch on a pass from the three. Conaty missed t point and the game ended shortly, ECU 20- W&M 0. The score was set up by Emerson Pickett’s interception at the 22, where returned it to the three. Both teams were plagued with penalties and fumbles throughout the game. ECU was charged with 10 penalties costing 123 yards and W&M lost 82 yards for eight violations. The Pirates fumbled five times and the Indians three. The Pirates long suit seemed to be first downs. They chalked up a total of 18; 11 on the ground, six in the air, and one on a penalty. The team’s optimism was reflected by coach Dye. “We're just scratching the surface of what we could be.” The Pirates have potential and the rest of the season could be surprising.

But, despite the 20-0 win, several factors may result in the optimism still being supressed among the ECU coaching staff and players. Both Jim Bolding and Kenny Strayhorn were injured against William and Mary. The loss of these two would be enough to shake any coaches’ security. At the present time, Strayhorn’s injury, diagnosed as a slight shoulder separation, is not supposed to keep him out of Saturday's game with Souther Illinois, but one has to wonder just how effective Strayhorn can be if he is worrying about his shoulder. Bolding, on the other hand, is out for 2-3 weeks. He reinjured an old high school injury when he fractured his ankle. The Pirates have good reserves in Bobby Myrick and Steve Hale, but anytime you lose an All-Conference player of Bolding’s caliber it hurts In addition, coach Pat Dye said he wasn’t too pleased with the secondary’s play against the Indians. “Defensively, we were breaking down in the secondary and not coming up and backing well on the runs. We are not playing the way we’re supposed to.” But, despite the injuries, ECU's offense finally seems to have come of age and some example for future games has been established. Pete Conaty performed admirably at quarterback, completing eight of 23 passes for 113 yards and two touchdowns, and leading ECU to each of its scores. And after three weeks of hedging, it seems Dye has finally decided on a number one signal-caller. “| would say that Conaty is now our number one quarterback,” said Dye, following the game. With Conaty at the helm, it seems ECU may be going to the pass more often. Although Conaty did not pass for a good percentage, his threat opened up the attack against the Indians and made the running attack click better. With Terry Gallaher long and halfbacks Hawkins and Strayhorn catching the ball short, the defenses can’t predict what will happen all the time. Gallaher is fast establishing himself as one of the most dangerous receivers in the nation. In three games, Gallaher has caught only six passes, but they have resulted in five scores and a total of 243 yards, almost half the Pirates’ passing output for the season so far. The Pirates defense, too, appears to have performed better against William and Mary. Several young players are beginning to develop into front-line talent. The ones who stood out Saturday were once again Harold Randolph and Emerson Pickett. New faces were Wayne Poole, Oliver Felton, and Harold Fort. The defense as a whole, though, does not quite satisfy Dye yet. “Our defense is not yet executing the way they are supposed to. In the line, we have too many players who aren't doing the job. We've got talent there and that has been why we've been getting away with not playing well, because people have been covering up for each other.” But t'1e most encouraging aspect of the game was the punting. Tom Daub finally showed people Saturday that he, too, can get the bounces normally reserved for a Johnny Evans or Joe Parker. On two consecutive punts, Daub had one roll dead at the one and the other died at the two. His average of 44 yards a punt was outstanding, too. ECU, too, turned in the best defensive performance since Dye arrived at the school, allowing only 160 yards total offense and, except for their first drive of the game, not allowing the Indians past the 48 yard line. ECU, too, practiced ball control offense in the second half. In the third quarter ECU ran off 32 plays to the Indians six on offense and held an 81-59 play advantage for the game. A team won't lose too many games that way. It seems the Pirates performed closer to Dye’s desires on Saturday, and they seem on the right track to a better season than most anticipated after the ASU game. At any rate, Dye feels the win will boost the morale of the team. “It (winning) will certainly help the kids’ morale and attitude, but we still need to improve on basic fundamentals and execution.” Strayhorn continued trom page 18. Strayhorn left for Atlanta on Friday, driving across country, and was due in Atlanta to negotiate his contract yesterday. So it is no longer a waiting game for Strayhorn. Now it is just a question of getting the right offer. “| hope that when | get to Atlanta their offer will meet all my expectations,” said Strayhorn. “! just hope that they will give me what they have promised.” If things don’t work out with Atlanta, then Les said he will more than likely return to North Carolina, and possibly try to sign with a team as a free agent for the 1976 season. “If things don’t work out with Atlanta, I'll either take the job in Dallas (non-related to football) or return to North Carolina and see what it has to offer. “Then next year I'll try and sign with some team as a free agent.” STRAYHORN SIDELINED - Kenny Strayhom is helped to the sidelines after being iat against William and Mary.

Goodwin co-founded the National Sea Grant Program and was deputy director for EZ and Oyster Bar 919-872-2547 aa a ae ae ae ae ae a ae a ae a a ae ae ae aa a - . seven years. He was chief program planner and manager for Sea Grand undersea operations, marine education, aquacul- ture, and national program development. “It is necessary to change regulations to get minerals we need from the ocean,” Goodwin said. “For example, there are lots of phosphates in the ocean,” Goodwin said, “but there are so many constraints that industry prefers to exploit the land.” “The future of the wold ocean is inseparable from the future of the planet and the people in it,” Goodwin said. We still face the basic problem of overpopulation according to Goodwin. Estimates of U.S. population in the year 200 exceed 250 million. World population will have increased by 42 per cent, he added. “The U.S. technological base is a petroleum base,” Goodwin said. We face an acute shortage of petroleum worldwide and must adapt and change. “Maybe the best was to expand nuclear energy is to put it offshore,” Goodwin Education Appropriations suggested. “We cannoi ‘ave absolute safety,” he said, “so we ti.ust settle for accetpable riskc.’ Goodwin was rector of Atomic Test Operations for tiie tr ederal Civil Defense Administration for six years. He directed nuclear weapons research at Nevada and Eniwetok. In the future we may see “underwater windmills” harvesting the power of ocean currents. The oceans are also our greatest source of wind power. One of the greatest problems in the petroleum shortage is the shortage of petroleum based fertilizer. “No one need die of starvation,” Goodwin said. “However estimates show 12,000 people die daily due to starvation and 100,000 more from diseases due to malnutrition.” The ocean has protein to feed the people. But this resource must be properly managed and it must be unilateral. “I'm not terrible optimistic on the ability of nations to get together on this,” Goodwin said. gets Congressional veto By CURT KOEHLER (CPS)--Disregarding dire warnings of increased inflation and mounting deficit spending, Congress voted in mid-Septem- ber to override President Ford’s veto of the $7.9 billion education appropriations bill. By lopsided margins of 88-12 in the Senate and 379-41 in the House, Congress enacted into law the measure which included some $2.4 billion in higher education funding. The bill covered money for such programs as Basic Grants, National Direct Loans, Guaranteed Student Loans, College Work Study and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants. The Senate tally was 21 votes more than the two-thirds majority needed to override the President’s veto. The House vote exceeded the necessary majority by 99 votes. It was a “vote for inflation,” said Office of Management and Budget Director James T. Lynn. In the battle against the override, the President’s spokespersons continually emphasized the fact that the bill exceeded Ford’s budget by $1.5 billion and consequently, they argued, dan- gerously increased the federal deficit and encouraged inflation. “The real issue is whether we are going to impose fiscal discipline on ourselves or whether we are going to spend ourselves into fiscal insolvency,” Ford said in his veto message last July. The President terms the appropriation “too much to ask the American people—-and our economy--to bear.” Yet supporters of the override move noted that the money bill calied for spending $400 million less than the congressional target set last spring as part of Congress’ attempt to reassert control over the federal budget. “The administra tion’s requests were inadequate to begin with,” argued Massachusetts Senator Edward Brooke, senior Republican on the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee that handled the bill. Other override supporters argued that the appropriation was only 3.6 per cent over the 1975 appropriation, some 5 per cent less than the consumer price index rise over the same time period. This argument led some administration critics to argue that the education appropriation represented an actual net decrease in federal spending for education, in view of the effects of inflation. Prior to the ov2rrride vote Sen. William Hathaway (D-ME), a member of the Senate Budget Committee that set the original target appropriation, said Ford’s veto “demonstrated a callous and unfortunate disregard for our national priorities and a perversion of otherwise valid concepts of fiscal and budgetary restraint.” Educational lobbyists in support of the override move were credited by observers with one of the best lobbying efforts in recent legislative history. The ad hoc Committee for Full Funding of Higher Education, consisting of such groups as the National Student Association and the National Student Lobby, worked to encourage students to telegraph, call or visit Congresspersons in support of the bill, particularly in some 50 Congressional “swing” districts. “It worked beautifully,” said one NSA Official of the lobbying effort, noting that the override vote exceeded the original vote on the bill last July. One NSA lobbyist cited the example of a student leader from the Unviersity of ‘Northern lowa who gathered 2300 signatures on a petition in support of the override in only 24 hours. geen Cl By H.

Birth control of the types most commonly used, ain two hormones -estrogen and estero.ie. They affect the body arily by, in essence, “fooling” the one levels which normally fluctuate ughout the monthly cycle so that ovulation (i.e., release of an egg from an ovary) does not occur. This, of course, is the basis for the use of the pill as a contraceptive. The effects of the pill may mimic early pregnancy. That is because of the similarity of hormones and hormone levels in the pill with those in the body during pregnancy. These symptoms may include morning sickness, breast swelling and tenderness, and weight gain. Ordinarily, however, these symptoms will clear after several cycles on the pill. The pill does have several potentially serious side effects on the body. The most important one of these is thrombo- phlebitis, which is the formulation of a blood clot in the vein. This clot has the potential of breaking loose from its location in the vein, traveling to the lung and thereimpeding the flow of blood. This latter event is called pulmonary embolism and is an extremely serious occurrence. There is also good evidence that certain other vascular problems may be associated with the use of the pill. These vascular problems probably are related to the estrogen which the pill contains. It should be pointed out that this discussion is intended to be a brief response and that if one went into extreme detail on the effects of hormones contained in birth control pills on the body, it would require many, many pages and would probably still be incomplete. Regarding your question about effects on the baby, to this point there are no known adverse effects upon a baby born to a mother who has previously taken oral contraceptives. Q] What is the casue of a pulled hamstring and how does one rid himself of hamstring pull that keeps recurring? Are there any special exercises one can do to prevent getting a pulled hamstring? A) The hamstring group of muscles refers to the large mass of muscle on the. back of the thigh and is made up of three separate muscles - the Biceps fermoris, the Semi-membranosus and Semitendi- nosus. This group of muscles acts to bend the knee and to extend the hip. Hamstring pulls or strains are the most common of injuries to thigh muscles. The injury can occur as a result of participation in any active sport, but particularly if it involves running. Strains actually refer to damage to the muscle fibers and this may vary from a mild strain in which a very few fibers might be pulled apart to, in the extreme, a complete tearing or rupture of the muscle group. This produces pain, bleeding into the muscle and loss of function, to some degree. Hamstring strains tend to recur since they heal by forming a riber-like scar tissue which is not elastic. Preventing recurrences require a proper exercise program to build up both hamstring groups, since there is some evidence that if one hamstring group is weaker than other, the weaker is likely to be strained. Secondly, following an injury, albeit minor, complete muscular function must have returned before resumption of exercise. Proper taping of the hamstring, at times, is helpful to prevent reinjury. Finally, one should warm up carefully and, particularly in the warm-up process, avoid over-strain or explosives types of motion until the muscles have been completely “warmed up”.
