Eight of the injured are ECU students When a single megaphone wie'ding peace officer standing in the intersection of Fourth and Cotanche Sts. gave the first order for the crowd to disperse, Fountainhead Features Editor Jim Dodson stood less than 30 feet from him. The newspaper journalist said the order was barely audible The time was approximately 11 p.m A few minutes later, Phil Arrington, an ECU graduate student and SGA legislator, heard shouting from Cotanche St. while standing in line waiting to enter the Attic nightclub. Arrington turned around and saw a man in green army-style fatigues marching into the alley where he stood. The riot-equipped soldier sprayed a blinding fog on tne unsuspecting line Arrington said he was forced along with the crowd into the cramped hallway which leads into the Attic. Tear gas canisters began exploding at the door of the nightclub. Arrington said he heard no order to disperse At about the same time, Glenn Alan Russel, a former ECU student, was on the dance floor inside the Elbo Room nightclub, adjacent to the Attic, when he began to smell tear gas. He and Cathy Angela and Susan Nunnally, waitresses at the Tree House Restaurant, left the Elbo Room and went to the Tree House At about 12:20 a.m. the trio and two other persons left the Tree House to go their car parked on Third St. They stopped on the sidewalk before crossing Reed St See Gas Attack, page 6 AN UNIDENTIFIED PERSON is seen fighting off Greenville police downtown last Friday night.

SGA riot investigation resolution passed SGA President Jimmy Honeycutt and Fountainhead Editor, Mike Taylor, have both called for an investigation by the Greenville City Council or State Bureau of Investigation into the incident Friday involving ECU students during a2 disturbance in the downtown area “There are dozens of stories concerning the Friday night incident. The these differ greatly and a thorough investigation is needed. This investigation should not be done by the police but by the Council or SBI,” Taylor contended versions of Honeycutt introduced a_ special resolution asking the SGA to set up a committee to investigate the incident The resolution reads as follows A RESOLUTION TO BE ENTITLED WHAT HAPPENED ON OCTOBER 31, 1975 WHEREAS: The members of the Student Government Association of East Carolina University are sworn to uphold the rights of the students on this campus, to represent and to defend them, and WHEREAS: The police-student con frontation in downtown Greenville on the night of October 31, 1975 showed a lack of good judgment and responsibility the part of many involved, both police and student, and WHEREAS: A degree of hostility does exist now between the students of this campus and the civil authorities of Greenville, and WHEREAS: Many questions remain pertaining to the use of force shown by the civil authorities of Greenville on the night of October 31, 1973, and WHEREAS: This Student Government has a responsibility to the student body to find out what did happen on the night of October 31, 1975, and to decide or some course of action, including the options of a possible lawsuit or boycott if the facts warrant that course BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED That a joint Executive-Legislative Select Committee on the Downtown Greenville Disturbance of October 31, 1975, be created, with three members appointed by the SGA President and three by the Speaker of the Legislature. This committee is ordered to act with all due speed to investigate the facts and return to the Legislature by November 10, 1975, with a recommendation or recommend- ations of action by this SGA on behalf of the students of East Carolina University See Riot Resolution, page 6. 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 16/4 NOVEMBER 1975 Editorials‘SCommentary Investigation needed Rumors about this past Friday night’s incident downtown that resulted in several dozen arrests and over $3,000 worth of property damage are a dime a dozen on campus and in the city. Seems like everyone has a version of the incident that police Officials termed a “riot”. There is a police version, then a student version and even a merchants’ version and all three do differ radically as to make one wonder. It is in light of this wide variation of opinion on the matter that we feel a thorough investigation by both city and state investigators is warranted. University officials should also investigate the actual situation. For sure the Greenville City Council should contract an: investigation of the incident completely independently of the Greenville City Police Department. To simply ask the Police Department for this version and then stamp it the official city version is irresponsibility carried to its highest. You can’t expect the Police to investigate the incident fairly. Those type in-house investigations always allow the department to come out smelling like a rose. The City Council should call for Police reports and testimony about the matter. But, they should also ask for student testimony about the whole affair. Clearly there are two sides to this issue. To get one side would do nothing but sweep the whole affair under the rug, until the situation happens again and police officials react in the same manner. The State Bureau of Investigation should be asked to investigate the actions taken by the Greenville City Police Department. Did the police overreact? Did the City Police use proper techniques and procedures in a crowd control situation? Did the police actually provoke the incident that followed the first tear gas blast? These are questions that demand answers. And, you can't get them from the Police department itself. Does anyone, including the Greenville City Council, expect Chief Glenn Cannon to admit that he may have overreacted or that his department may have gone to extremes not called for? University officials should investigate the incident since so many students were involved. Insuring the welfare of the student body, whether it be on campus or off, should be a main concern of administration officials. It should be pointed out that some initial reaction by downtown merchants is that they are sick and tired of students pulling such incidents. Some merchants apparently feel they are constantly being hurt in situations like this by students and have formed a negative reaction towards the students. Two things deserve mentioning about this.First, about 50 per cent of those arrested were non-students and a good part of the THE ECU HALLOWEEN COSTUME STEEL INVENTED gy: DAVID Nagas Survey good idea Tne ECU Student Government Association made a sound move this past Monday when they appropriated some $680 for a student survey. The SGA thinking was that the survey, to be conducted by ECU professors, would give that legislative group a “rudder to steer by and know student views’. When you consider that the SGA has a budget in the range of $250,000 and is one of the largest in the entire United States, then it is only reasonable that the legislative group shou!d be in as close a touch with student views as possible. Communications between the SGA and the students is poor, but we think that proper communication is a two-way street and it is also the responsibility of the students to inform their representatives of how they feel on certain issues. The usual student reaction is an after-the-fact- “Why the hell did they do something like that.” Such a student poll, if well designed and carried out, could be an invaluable piece of information to the SGA as they map their course for the coming year. Hopefully, student response to the survey will be positive and meaningful. And, just as hopefully, the SGA itself will heed the results of this survey. “Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without crowd was composed of non-students. Unfortunately, it is the "ewspapers, or newspapers without goverment, | should not hesitate a moment to students that get blamed for everything, whether they actually Prefer the latter.” were involved or not. Secondly, the students who attend ECU spend upwards of $15,000,000a year downtown. In fact, the university itself is the biggest business in this city. Without the university the downtown business district would dry up and blow away, literally. So, while merchants may have some gripes with students, they undoubtedly owe the students a lot more than a few broken windows. If a merchant thinks he has had too much -- well fine. But, would that merchant please refuse to allow students in the front door with that LONG green in their hands?

Like many others celebrating the occasion of Halloween, my date and |! were partaking of dance and drink at one of the downtown bars which was sponsoring a special Halloween costume contest and discount beer with the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. It was an enjoyable time - the masquerade and dancing proved great entertainment for all that participated. Then, in the middle of a dance, we were asked to leave quickly and quietly out the back exit - no explanations were given - except for “there’s been a little trouble on the streets.” Unaware of what was going on, we started to our car, which was parked across the street. Before we knew it we were crying and gagging from the tear gas that had been dispersed throughout the downtown area. After | could see to drive, we left downtown slightly humiliated over being “gassed” for no reason. Afterwards, | spoke to many ECU students who had been involved in the disturbance - and most agreed that sufficient warning had not been given before tear gas was fired. In fact, the majority knew nothing until their faces and eyes were burning from the gas. | have no knowledge of police tactics in riotous situations, but | have strong doubts that the ones used by the Greenville police Friday night were either correct or safe. This is evident from the number of people who, like me, had no prior knowledge of the situation and indirectly became a part of it. It seems the police force in a university community should have a well developed plan for crowd control to prevent such a “loss of control” again in the future. The fact that the violent actions taken Friday night were instigated by a small handful of the crowd cannot be argued. Overall the crowd was quite orderly and “inline” prior to the tear-gassing and most were innocent bystanders caught in a bad situation. The purpose of this letter is not to say who was right or wrong in the misadventure Friday night, only to point out that many innocent people could have been injured or worse because of police over-reaction and lack of control. The thought of wearing a World War | gas mask outfit next Halloween appalls me and | hope proper measures will be taken to prevent such incidents in the future. Darrell E. Williams ECU Alumnus Students should have fought harder To Fountainhead: _ There was some inaccurate reporting of the events of Friday night. When they are cleared up, an apology will be in order. We should not blame the police entirely for the disappointing violence of Friday night. The crowd did not exhaust every possibility before stooping to violence themselves. Indeed, many disillusioned individuals left before much of the crowd even realized that they were being accosted. The crowd was downtown trying to have a good time. It is realized that beer is prevalent downtown, and that can be blamed for some people being slow to react. There was at least an hour between when tear gas was thrown and the first property damage was inflicted. Things could have happened faster, but thinking was cloudy and the situation was not fully realized. After the police donned costumes and clubbed and gassed the crowd, the crowd seemed to be at their wits’ end. A large percentage left the area at that time, but a few meritorious individuals, slightly intoxicated and half blind with gas stayed to show the police the error of their ways. That was fine, though, because the police would have done the same for us. So, on behalf of the students, at least, an apology is in order. The students who left early should be reprimanded for their disgraceful conduct and the ones who did stay, should have fought harder. 9 Your Neighborhood Uroan Guerrilla Kent Johnson police overreacted To Fountainhead : It is my belief that the orders of action taken by the police under the direction of Police Chief Glenn Cannon on Oct. 31, 1975, on and around Cotanche St. and Fifth St. (Greenville, N.C.) were either premature or unnecessary. The decision to “gas” the crowd that had gathered on Cotanche between 4th and 5th was made and carried out in an unorganized and disorderly manner. The authorities in charge did not give sufficient announcement to the entire crowd. (One announcement was made from the corner of 4th and Cotanche stating that the crowd should disperse within five minutes.) This one order to disperse was heard by a very limited amount of people as attested to by numerous eye witnesses (including store merchants, club managers, and media personnel). | also question the need to gas the crowd at the time it was ordered. Gas should be used as a last resort and we believe that the situation wasn't to the point of being out of control. In a previous meeting between the Greenville Managers Association and the Greenville police on Aug. 28, it was decided that in the case of trouble on the streets, the club managers would tell their crowd to remain inside and that they would be subject to arrest if they decided to jeave. On Oct. 31 these orders were carried out by the managers and subsequently the entrances and exits of at least three clubs were gassed. | by no means condone the actions of those who threw bottles and rocks and destroyed property. However, | feel that these activities would not have occurred if it were not for the incompetent and irresponsible orders given by the police authorities in charge. Restraint however was used by most of the officers on duty and we commend them for it. It seems to me also that many of the police were uninformed as to procedure and general information, which seems absurd considering the fact that Chief Cannon briefed his officers of the possibility of a Halloween crowd. Club managers were told both to open and to close, crowds were told to go in one direction by some officers and in other directions by other officers. In conclusion | feel that situations such as this, which are rare, can be dealt with in other manners. Thank you, A Greenville Merchant Incident disgrace to ECU students To Fountainhead: The disturbance at downtown Green- ville Friday night was a disgrace. It clearly showed that the students at ECU are nothing but a group of immature children. The facilities and opportunities at ECU have made great progress in the last 10 to 15 years, but the students have regressed 100 years. When college students wear Hal- loween masks and block streets. the people at UNC and N.C. State and other top universities have a right to cail EUU a party school with no academic standards at all. Maybe the legislature had a point when they were against making East Carolina a university in the mid 1960's. They should have changed the name to Children’s College.

The problem that has been brought to my attention the most deals with freshman parking. A great number of people point to resentment for seniors, juniors, and sophomores, as the factor behind the push for lifting the ban on freshman parking. Resentment for these three classes had as much to do with the parking ban as does the price of tea in China. Solutions cannot be useful unless the problem is fully understood. The disenchantment is with the 1939 traffic regulation that states, “Freshmen cannot own or operate a motor vehicle on campus.” Though this has been amended to allow parking on weekends only, this is of little compensation. Many thought the problem might be alleviated to some extent, but it only added fuel to the fire. A majority of freshmen who own cars, bring them to school as a mode to get back and forth to home, and not as much as to attend classes with. Their cars stay idle in the many freshman parking lots, except for a rare shopping spree or trip downtown. Thus the parking around the dorms is needed mostly during the week when the freshmen are in school and not on the weekend when their cars are taken home. Student thinks police action was‘ stupid’ To Fountainhead: | would like to comment on the happening Friday night. | ‘eel that the action taken by police was downright stupid. They should not have used the tear gas when they did. The people were blocking the street and yes they were making a lot of noise, but, contrary to “official” news stories there were not any bricks or bottles thrown or windows broken before the gas was thrown. The minute warning was not very loud and there was no other warning before the gas was thrown. Spraying directly into the crowd was bad enough outside but putting it inside The Attic & Elbo Room caused many people to panic and get hurt. | saw one girl pass out and heard of others who were badly hurt | think the police in this town need some re-education or perhaps they were never taught about group behavior. The mood of the crowd on Friday was loud and rowdy but not violent. The actions taken by police were premature and the catalyst for the damage that occurred later. The students on this campus make a difference to the livelihood of the businesses in downtown Greenville. We keep this town alive. An organized boycott by students of the downtown stores might change things. At least it will put pressure on city officials and make them realize that the men and women are not out to rip apart everything they see. Just because people get loud and stand around doesn’t mean that people will get hurt and start breaking and damaging private property. The citizens of Greenville and especially the police should wal up and realize this. If the students |! work together and boycott the stores the point will get across. There are plenty of other places in town to shop. Use them! Angela Henry Health problem noted To Fountainhead | am very concerned about the health of the women workers in the older dorms on campus, such as Jarvis, Cotten, Slay, Fleming, and Umstead.

Out of concern for these women, | feel that there must be another way. Every person that | have gone to see, has given me the line, “My wife does it, except she’s not getting paid for it.” As far as that statement goes | believe that the work done by their wives in no way measures up to the work the women do in these dorms | felt that if | brought this problem to the student body maybe we concerned people could at least try to help. I'm asking for suggestions and letters to be sent to the housekeepers department Thank you, Day Washington The parking privileges have been kindly made available at the times when they are least needed. The freshmen are asking for parking, not extra parking lots. Those opponents to giving freshman equal parking privileges, are talking around the issue, and shy away from the main points. Why then are freshmen discriminated against when they pay tuition, that on the average, is the same as any senior, junior or sophomore who has __ parking privileges? Last year, Tim Sullivan and his “self-limiting hours for women” b ., ran into the same opposition, but his bill opened many of those minds that were dead set against such a bill. [hough a bill has yet to be introduced, freshmen Poor turnout noted To Fountainhead: In response to the memorial ceremony for Mr. Clarence Stasavich, | was very disappointed. Out of 11,700 students only about 60 people showed up and most of these were of family and personal friends. It seems to me that the student body didn’t really care whether or not they had a memorial ceremony for Mr. Stasavich. Even though a majority of the student body didn’t know Mr. Stasavich personally, it seems that they should show some respect for him by attending the ceremony. Mr. Stasavich represented East Carolina University as Athletic Director. He expanded the atheltic program and has made ECU an outstanding university in the field of athletics. Although some of his actions were controversial, he did what he thought was in the best interest of the school. He gave a lot of his time to help make ECU a well-known university. The students should have given him at least 30 minutes of their time. Sincerely yours, Robert Hughes reaction to the large number of tickets, towaways, inconvenience of freshmen parking tots and few contradictory privileges, has worn their patience thin. | hope others will voice their views, and ideas. This will help both pro and con to evaluate the situation. Anyone who wishes to voice his views or just Converse on the matter, will be welcomed at 203 Jones Hall or 752-8681. | appreciate the opportunity to voice my views and appeal for all students to get involved in this issue, all issues, and the school. Kevin McCourt Freshman Class President Parking problems To Fountainhead: In case anyone hasn't noticed yet, there is definitely a parking problem on the hill. Anybody who has tried to find a parking place after about nine o’clock in the evening knows what I'm talking about. | was truly impressed with the administration's initial attempt to solve the problem by establishing another parking area on 14th Street across from Rose High. But then they really blew it by designating the area for dorm and freshmen parking. Now, I've got nothing against freshmen - | used to be one myself. But presently that parking area is dominated by freshmen cars, and ali the upperclassmen’s cars with which the new parking area was supposed to provide extra space for are still driving around looking for somewhere to park! The only alternative left is to park at the bottom of the hill in the Day Students parking area, and I’m sure the day students really appreciate that. It should be the responsibility of the administration to provide adequate parking for the students they house. Let the freshman park back up on 3rd Street where they were originally. At least they are provided with a parking area by the university, which wasn’t the case when | began here. The residents on the hill shouldn’t have to feel confined just because they know if they leave, they won't have anywhere to park when they come back. Student opposes fees To Fountainhead: | am a_ student who does not participate as a spectator or player in any of the sports programs at East Carolina University. | resent having to pay money that goes to the differerent athletic departments. Isn’t there some way for people who want to learn or study for its own sake to go to school without having to support these different organizations. The athletic department receives over a million dollars a year for its different games. Personally, | think it’s ridiculous, and down right sad. This money could be spent to improve the quality of education that we receive at this university. | may be the only one that thinks like this, but it’s frustrating to see so much money being spent on sports which | feel are not really a part of the idea of a higher education.

Sexauer, professor of art at ECU. Sexauer made his remarks Tuesday night, Oct. 28, during the third and final forum on education sponsored by the League of Women Voters. Sexauer discussed the role of art instruction in the education of an individual. “Education has nothing to do with getting a job,” Sexauer said. “If we want tO make the university a placement service, then why don’t we change it into a vocational school? “University should provide students with a liberal arts education and not force them into a certain discipline,” he continued. “The purpose of art education in the schools is not to make little artists,” Sexauer said. “It is a tool to activate the passive knowledge of a child so that he may become a_ementally active individual.” Sexauer said he educates so that an individual may make a contribution to society on his own. “If, education should be reduced to only training a person for particular work, giving him a ticket to a certain job, then my task as an educator is over,” Sexauer continued. Charles £. Garrison, assistant professor of sociology at ECU, agreed with the importance of a liberal arts education but noted the controversy about it. “The liberal arts education is under attack today,” he said. “The argument for it sounds good, however, many people oppose it.” “The fact is, it isn’t working. Students are not exhibiting the characteristics of educated people,” Garrison added. Dr. Alvin Fahrner, professor of history at ECU, also noted the importance of a liberal arts education. However, he said vocational training was a necessary part of our schools. “Vocational training should be a part of our school curriculum,” Fahrner said. “Somewhere along the line we need to teach people how to make a living.” According to James L. Smith of the ECU Philosophy Dept., schools cannot solve all of the problems facing our society today. Romita to leave ECU By JOHN DAYBERRY Staff Writer Dr. Joseph W. Romita, associate professor of economics at ECU, is leaving at the end of Fall term for a position at California State College in Bakersfield, California. Romita has 27 years of college teaching, including 11 at ECU. He has also taught at St. John’s University, and in Florida at Rollins College, and the University of Florida. He has served as an American diplomat at American embassies in Spain, Paraguay, and the Phillipines. Representing private enterprise, and the U.S. Government, Romita has traveled in over 30 countries. The author of a text on “Investment Opportunities in Paraguay’, and numer- ous pamphlets and papers on_ inter- national economics, Romita has been a contributor to many economic journals. His latest, sponsored by a researach grant from the ECU Business Found- ation, was entitled “A Bibliography of Selected Readings for the Chartered Life Underwriters designation (CLU).” Romita has served as consultant to the Amercian College of Life Under- writers, Supervising all CLU examinations in eastern North Carolina. He received a General Electric Corporation Fellowship in economics, and one from the Republic Steel Corporation. He was presented a gold medal from the Paraguayan government for his contribution to the advancement of free enterprise in that country. Romita is listed in “American Men of Science,” and in “Who’s Who in the South and Southwest”. He is a life-time member of the American Economic Association, the Western Economic Association, Beta Gamma Sigma, and the Lions Intemational. DR. JOSEPH W.

The response ability of a child is the responsibility of the parents to nurture, foster and encour- Garrison also said that motivation was a problem in education today. “An obvious problem today is student motivation,” Garrison said. “We should find ways to ease students into and out of the school system. We should make the system more flexible so that an unmotivated student can get out of the system and reenter it when ready,” he continued. Noting the importance of listening in education, Smith said this important attribute could not be left entirely to the schools. “We cannot expect our schools alone to encourage this wondrous power to listen,” Smith said. “it, too, must begin at home.” Smith said parents should provide children with quiet time from social noise. ‘Our own need for quiet time should make uS aware of the same need in others,” Smith said. “The freedom in our country is based on quiet time to think, read, paint, whatever. Parents should provide this quiet time.” Smith added, “A child busy every minute is missing something.” He also said surroundings play an important part in the development of a person. “We must be aware of the quality of our environment,” he said. “If we restrict the quality of the environment, then we restrict the quality of the individual. Garrison recommended more critical evaluation of the educational system in order to attack school problems. “There is not enough independent evaluation in the schools today,” Garrison said. “This independent evaluation may create some problems, particularly for professors, but it would help the system as a whole,” he added. “By looking at the way the system is working we can solve problems better than by looking only at admirable ideals,” Garrison said.

They spotted two friends in the parking lot at the bottom of the hill on which Fletcher dorm is located. Before long a policeman ran across the parking lot shouting “move on,” Tyndall said. They began to walk away The officer tapped Tyndall on the Riot Resolution Continued from page 7. The SGA Legislature voted unanin+ ously to back a resolution from President Jimmy Honeycutt that would set up a joint committee to “investigate the troubles of October 31, 1975 and to speedily make recommendations to SGA as to what action we should take on behalf of the students.” Honeycutt, in an address to the legislature, said he was “frightened” by the police action on Halloween, and that he was not ruling out the use of a boycott or a lawsuit “if the facts warrant such action.” The committee which will investigate the disturbance will meet Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday shoulder saying, “Hey buddy, you're walking too slow.” Tyndall said the officer told him, “Let’s take a ride on the bus (referring to the police bus that carried those arrested to the polices tation).” Tyndall was arrested for failure to disperse—a misdeameanor. Tyndall said that after the police had packed the bus with those arrested they began spraying mace into the windows without apparent provocation. Donald Stoll was arrested for failure to disperse while walking to his car beside Bentley’s restaurant and placed on the bus with Tyndall. He said he was picked up at 11 p.m. Latelyhe and approximately one-half of the occupants of that bus were told to get into another bus. When Stoll was finally booked at 5 o'clock Saturday morning, he discovered that all those on the second bus were automatically charged with inciting a riot-a felony. Stoll said he was never read his rights. A conviction on this charge could get Stoll more than ten years in prison. nights of this week in room 239 Mendenhall at 6:30 p.m. to go over written depositions and other facts which will lay the foundations for any recommendation to the SGA. Tim Sullivan, SGA Executive As- sistant, has been named chairman of the group, called the Select Committee on the Downtown Greenville Disturbance of October 31, 1975 “The group has a free hand,” he said, “to suggest what it feels iS warranted. If we have adequate facts to back us up, | believe the SGA feels strongly enough on this to okay it. “If any student has something to say, get a written statement to us at SGA between now and Thursday.

FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 16/4 NOVEMBER 1975 7 College grade inflation criticized (CPS)-There’s more than one kind of inflation that college administrators are complaining about. Grade inflation has drawn the criticism of administrators throughout the country who are beginning to question how many students deserve the grades they get. As evidence, they point to Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores _ for college-bound seniors which are falling to new lows at the same time that grade point averages are climbing. At the University of Oklahoma, where the average grade in one college is a 3.0, Dean Paige Mulhollen said recently that people hiring graduates “are going to begin to wonder, if everybody we turn out has a high grade point but some of them aren't very capable. They're going to start asking us, ‘Wait a minute, what are you doing for us’?” HIGH GRADES The dean of the school of education at Arizona State University was alarmed enough by the high grades doled out in the school to put a ceiling on the number of A's or B’s awarded each quarter. More than 85 percent of the school’s students received A’s or B's in_ fall quarter last year, according to a survey. Final grades won't be able to exceed a 3.0 average for all undergraduate students under the new system. The problem is hardly confined to Arizona and Oklahoma. A study of 197 institutions conducted by a researcher at Michigan State University showed that since 1960, the average grade earned had risen by about one half of a grade. RESULT As a result, according to the dean's student assignment at Johns Hopkins University, “it is increasingly difficult to distinguish mediocre students from the truly outstanding ones.” The assistant claimed that if tne trend is unchecked, grades will no longer be a _ valid measurement of achievement and “the mainstay of the educational system will in fact be perverted.” Administrators doubt that grades are going up because students are getting smarter. They point to SAT scores which show that, if anything, the opposite is true. SAT SCORES SAT scores released this fall show that on an 800-point scale, the average verbal score has dropped 44 points since 1963. Scores on the math section of the tests have dipped 30 points over the same period The SAT’s are a ‘standardized measure of developed reasoning abilities important in college courses,” according to their desiqners In Oklahoma, Mulhollen said that there are a number of reasons why grades have edged upward over the years “Some think it has grown out of the Vietnam war, that there are some faculty who were unwilling to give bad grades that might lead to people getting drafted,” he said. He added that there ara nthare ‘udn think secondary education is better than it has even been before, or that television has created a ‘super-genera tion.’ There are a lot of suggested resons but | don’t think anybody has much data to support any of them,” he said. ECONOMY Other administrators blame the economy. The need to keep enrollment up during hard economic times may have led instructors to give higher grades to keep students at their schools. At the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, administrators claimed that policies allowing students to drop classes they were doing poorly in may be part of the reason for grade averages that have risen from 2.6 to 2.8 there between 1969 and 1975 The result of skyrocketing grades, according to Yale Dean Jaroslav Pelikan, is that the “nuances about a student's capacity for scholarship are more and more difficult to read from a transcript.” Both employers and enrollment officials will be forced to rely less heavily on grade points and develop other methods to measure ability |\Wright Building | Students Students Supply When You Need Sto re a Calculator - ou Need it NOW aaa @ REDUCED Pe a SCIENTIAC POCKET CALCULATOR For further information about the HP— 21, contact the Students Supply Store - Wright Building.

Glenn Cannon, Pitt County ABC (Alcoholic Beverage Con mission) officer Fred Hall, and City Manaqer Harry Haggerty The GNA was encouraged to act as a unified body in making a decision to lose Saturday night The city and county officials emphasized that the decision to close or emain open would be totally at the {iscretion of the nightclub owners The official suggestion was that club ywners voluntarily close Saturday night, with announcements being made over ocal radio stations and at the ECU-Furman game saying that the closing was a result of a GNA decision. The club owners voiced general disagreement to this proposal, because, as one association member pointed out, “If we emphasize that it is our decision to close, the implication will be that we are assuming the blame for what happened last night.” According to another owner, “If there was beer being consumed on the streets, it wasn't bought at any of our places. It is not possible for us to catch every person trying to sneak something out, but most of the beer on the streets was purchased at one of the convenience stores in the downtown area.” It was decided that member nightclubs would close Saturday night, and would conduct business as usual on Sunday Convenience stores in the downtown area were open Saturday night, but they temporarily discontinued the sale of alcoholic beverages. According to Stop-Shop employee Willis Stancil, “We were asked not to sell beer. If they ask you not to, and they control your beer license, you don’t sell beer.” Friday’s night's activities elicited comments from several other downtown merchants, most of whom preferred to be unnamed According to the owner of one of the stores suffering damage from flying objects, “Il am not too upset at the students for breaking the windows because | think the police started the whole mess themselves. The police -overreacted; they helped provoke the trouble. “| had a policeman tell me that he did not hear the warning to disperse, so apparently the police did not even know what they were all doing,” he said. Another merchant, himself a former policeman, said, “Cannon should either resign immediately or be fired. | feel that after this we need a new chief of police. “They can’t clear 500 people out of Minges Coliseum in five minutes; how the hell do they think that they can clear a Street of 500 people when the people don't even know they are supposed to leave?” The same merchant continued, “If | had been gassed for no apparent reason | would have probably reacted the same way the kids did. | hope the students protest this whole affair and demand that a proper investigation be made—! think others feel the same way | do.” [Editor's Note]: at a Monday afternoon meeting of the Greenville Nightclub Association, the following statement was issued: “The downtown Greenville nightclubs have done everything in their power to run their establishments in the most businesslike manner possible. “The clubs organized in August, 1975 by forming the Greenville Nightclub Association, and thinking and acting collectively. We have doormen to control the entrances, floormen to control the inside of the clubs, and managers to control the overall operation, according to law. “We have hired off-duty Greenville police at Our expense on all expected busy nights to patrol downtown Greenville. “We are willing to cooperate with the city and state authorities in all aspects of controlling the downtown atmosphere.” ECU willnot discipline arrested students By JAMES PERRY and KENT JOHNSON Staff Writers The officials of ECU will not take any Jisciplinary action towards the students who were involved in the Halloween disturbance in downtown Greenville last Friday night The University will not take any fisciplinary action against the students,” according to C.C.

Director of Security, Francis Eddings. However, there was one injury and one window broken on campus. Two males, a student and a non-student, were talking with three campus police officers on the west end of the campus when a projectile struck the non-student on top of the foot. He was taken to the infirmary where he received treatment A library window was broken during the night. Eddings speculated that this occurred as some students were throwing rocks as they passed between Mendenhall and the tibrary. Eddings dispelled rumors that the doors to Fletcher Dorm were locked by the campus police “If the doors to Fletcher were locked it was a mistake.

But does the same reasoning apply when a student pays $300 for a course and then discovers it is worthless? A number of students across the country have sued their schools for breach of contract. Claiming that their college catalogue constitutes a_ valid contract between student and university, the students have charged that the description in the catalogue was a far cry from what they found in the classroom. Among the cases pending are the following: A business education major has sued the University of Bridgeport in Connecticut for $400, claiming that she learned “absolutely nothing” in a course she took a year ago. “I’ve had bad courses before,” said Illene laniello, “but this was ridiculous. The only thing | learned was how to use the overhead projector.” In her legal brief, laniello charged that “classroom time was substantially devoted to the instructor reading aloud pamphlets and other materials he had already distributed to the class.” The East Carolina Symphony Orches- tra will present its Fall concert on Sunday, November 9 at 3:15p.m. in Wi ght Auditorium.

Soprano soloist in the final movement of the symphony will be Antonia Dalapas. Professor Dalapas joined the Vocal Faculty of ECU in 1971 and made her Southeastern debut with the ECU Symphony that year.

Schaller, took an early retirement from his 30-year government job to pursue a doctoral program in “research and development management.” He claims that after he enrolled, the university dropped its management program, assigned him advisors who were unqualified in the field and then discharged him two years before the time limit the college catalogue gave him to complete his Ph.D. Even though he was enrolled in management, “at one point a special committee suggested that | write my dissertation on political theory,” said Schaller. For the school’s part, according to a university spokesperson, “Schaller was given every opportunity but has failed to perform.” in another case, several contract England Conservatory in Boston, studying with Boris Goldovsky, Sarah Caldwell, Thomas Phillips, and other leading teachers and coaches.

The students lost their case in the courts, and decided to repeat one of the nursing classes to bring up their grade average. Their claim for damages is still pending. In another part of New York, a graduate student at Syracuse University has sued for breach of the college catalogue contract. Asking for damages of nearly $4000 for back tuition, Thomas White has argued that the post-graduate philosophy department offered courses that duplicated those in other depart- ments and that “non-philosophy specia- lists” were teaching philosophy courses that differed drastically from the catalogue description sent to prospective grad students. According to White, the significance of his case is the “future of academic freedom.” The University responded to his charge by slapping him with a $10,000 countersuit.

James, coordinator of the program. “No one else has complained.” In an attempt to recoup her lost tuition, Nicolas is suing the university for $900. Hardly an issue a few years ago, the recent outbreak of college catalogue contract cases is due to “an increase in consumer-orientation,’’ according to William Van Alstyne, a iaw professor at Duke University, in North Carolina, and an expert in contract law “Decisive gains have been made in commercial consumerism and_ interest has spilled over to the college campus,” said Alstyne. “Contract law applies when colleges don’t furnish what they promise.” The issue of whether the contents of a school’s catalogue have the force of a legal contract promises to be a difficult one. According to the Harvard Educational Review, “the right to sue for economic (rather than physical) injuries resulting from negligence on the part of school personnel is both without precedent in the common law and without explicit mandate in legislation.” “It will prove an interesting battle,” concluded Alstyne.

There are so many fraternities and sororities here, and they promote the southern male-southern female idea. “Sorority women will not run for office because fraternity men will ostracize them,” she added Connie Nanney, unsuccessful 1975 sandidate for SGA president, said she was warned she could not handie the responsibility Bob Lucas, 1974 president of the SGA, told me he did not think | was jualified to be SGA president because | was a married woman He told me that he did not see how | could have the time to take care of my schoolwork, my husband, my home and the SGA “| think most people have an image in mind of the SGA president as a male,’ said Nanney. Female faculty salaries are also a major area of controversy. According to a faculty salary list circulated last year, women’s salaries are still considerably lower than men’s. In the English department, for example, women comprised 40 percent of the faculty. Two of the women were full professors, and one was an associate professor The other sixteen women were in the assistant professor and_ instructor categories. Women serving assistant professor- ships made a yearly average of $1,947.50 less than their male counterparts. Female instructors, however, made an average of $1,262.50 more per year than the men.

Janice Hardison Faulkner of the English department explained, “Some of these women have been at ECU for quite some time. “Four of the instructors have been here for ten years, and one has been here for twelve years, and yet they are still making only $1,000 more than men who came here year before last.” Faulkner added that she sees a hopeful future for the situation. ‘The changing of the school to democratize decision-making through various committees will alleviate most of the existing inequities,” she said. According to Richard Farris, associate director of the Affirmative Actior Program, federal legislation has come about to eliminate many such discrimin- atory practices “We are operating under 29 pieces of federal legislation in regards to employment “We are attempting to find a logical and fair way to treat every applicant that comes through the door “The basic problem is that we have had attitudes in which we said women should fit into certain niches, and that is why the legislation came about. “Females have been told they cannot have high positions for so long that it nas become an ingrown belief. We need an attitude change on the part of women, too,” said Farris. According to Dean Fulghum, doors have been opened to women on campus for administrative positions, but they have not been stepped through. “Women on campus still see themselves in the traditional female career roles. “Tremendous progress is being made in salary equalization, but work is needed in promotions,” she said. One of the recommendations made by the Committee on the Status of Women is for more women to be appointed to the ECU Board of Trustees. Corner of 5th and Cotanche Are you looking for a place in the afternoon to sit around, watch television and drink a cold one? MARTY’ S is now opening at 4 in the afternoon, seven days a week! According to Inez Fridley, counselor at Fletcher Dorm and president of the Greenville chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW), the Board of Trustees should accurately reflect the composition of the student body. “The Board of Trustees is to reflect the student body, since they have an absolute rule,” she said. There is presently one women on the Board of Trustees, Mrs. J.G. Burgwyn. Mrs. Burgwyn is the Secretary of the Board. Herbert Lee, also a trustee, said he has no objections to more women on the Board of Trustees. “But the qualification angle should be more important than male-female distribution “A woman should not be prevented from being on the Board because she is female, but no woman should be appointed just because she is a women, either,” said Lee. According to Janice Faulkner, sex discrimination is interesting at ECU because of the University’s all-female history. “Women on the staff eventually began to level off, and the men then took over the positions of authority. “Female ambition is still regarded as an intrusion into the male domain. ‘Women have been conditioned to see themselves in a subservient relationship with men. We have been conditioned to be passive,” she concluded.

[News and Observer 41-2-75] In the wake of ECU’s most memorable riot in many years, the Fountainhead has gone to great lengths to secure an interview with the man responsible for much of the “action” that took place on the streets of Greenville Friday night. We reached Police Chief Glenk Gannon at his home early Saturday morning, where he was watching his favorite cartoon show, Scooby-doo, and pasting newspaper clippings of the riot on his living room wall. FOUNT. Well, Chief, looks like you and your men had a busy night last night. CHIEF. Yeah, you might say that. Almost as much fun as the night we raided the hoochee-koochee shows at the Pitt County fair. Busted six 45-c’s, three 44-d’s and a 47-c that night . FOUNT: it seems a lot of people are upset about the way you handied the matter last night though. CHIEF: Well, it was like this. The night before | was watchin’ the French Connection on the television, and it occurred to me right then and there that the only way to handle lawbreakers is to bust ’em in the face...just like ole Gene Hackman done to them frenchy faggots. FOUNT: Are you saying you told your men to go into the downtown area and beat up on the students? CHIEF: | told ’em what Teddy Roosevelt once said; walk softly and carry a big stick. FOUNT: Is that why no one heard your order to disperse? CHIEF: That ain't funny punk. We told ‘em all to get gone or we was gonna throw ’em all in the can. They just ignored us and started throwin’ bottles. FOUNT: The reliable reports we have indicated that there was no hint of trouble until the police showed up and began blockading the streets. CHIEF: Yeah we blocked ’em off alright. That was our civil defense trainin’ showin’ through. They taught us that one weekend down at Camp Lejeune...you know, in case the Russians ever attack Greenville. FOUNT: As we understand it, you unleashed your men with tear gas and night sticks to run through the crowd grabbing people at random. CHIEF: Naw, we grabbed most of 'em at the Elbo Room. ‘Course some did git away. We had to shoot them with rubber bullets. FOUNT: Don't you think your “Gestapo-like” tactics were a little bit out of line considering the fact that most of the kids were dressed up in Halloween costumes and were just interested in having a good time? CHIEF: Heck no. Besides, my men was dressed up too. FOUNT: How’s that? CHIEF: They was wearin’ their new riot-control helmets and “Mayor Daily” gas masks. They just got 'em Thursday mornin’. Most of the boys was anxious to try 'em Out. FOUNT: So you used the ECU students as a testing ground. CHIEF : Well, we was thinking about goin’ out to the Pitt County dog pound and gassin’ a few strays but then we found out about this riot and decided it'd be more fun to use it downtown. FOUNT: You say you knew about the riot in advance. Are you implying that the “riot” would have occurred even if you hadn’t showed up with your men? CHIEF: Yeah. We got a tip Thursday night that a bunch of UNC radicals were secretly meetin’ in the basement of Scott Dorm to plan the riot. We heard that hundreds of people were planning to dress themselves up in funny costumes, (so’se nobody could recognise 'em,) and converge on downtown when it got dark. FOUNT: Could it possibly have been because it was Halloween? CHIEF: Naw, cause everybody knows college kids are too old to go trick or treatin’. Naw, they was out to riot, clean and clear. FOUNT: Don’t you think that some of the charges were a bit severe. After all, inciting a riot is a federal offense and carries a very stiff penalty. Most of those kids have never been in trouble in their lives and now you're putting a black mark on their records that will look much more serious than the matter really was in future years. CHIEF: Listen here boy, | read that book called the Blueberry Statement, or whatever it was called, almost once, and | learned all about these campus hippies. You give ‘em an inch and they take a mile. You give ’em a brick and they bust a window. FOUNT: One might say the same thing about the police. CHIEF: How's that FOUNT: You given ‘em a mile and they take your brick. Give 'em an inch and they bust you The Chief speaks; ‘We sure had ariot last night...’ “You giv a ‘ : r posses CHIEF: You ain’t funny boy. | wish you had been downtown last night. rself that FOUNT: | was. eivisor Oo CHIEF: How'd we miss nabbin’ your ass. ice to AI FOUNT: | dressed up like Mussolini and everybody thought | was you. is CHIEF: Yeah well we ain't gonna have no more riots in this town, long as I'm VISTA w control.

We initiate the action,” he continued. In keeping with the basic VISTA philosophy of strengthening and supple- menting efforts to eliminate poverty, the Greenville workers have established goals and objectives aimed at solving long range problems. The first goal is to establish a community decision-making group that will provide an on-going resource to residents. FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 16/4 NOVEMBER 1975 15 County know how very much volunteers are needed.” Citing the illiteracy rate in Pitt County, he said, “We could go on forever about the things that need to be done right here in our own community, and the volunteers that are needed to help do it. It is an opportunity to help each other on a one-to-one basis, according to need ” Some of the work the Pitt County VISTA workers had initiaited includes a mini-library, recreation projects and Secondly, the group is working to Volunteer establish the ECU Student Association as a viable campus recruitment component of volunteer Greenville. The third goal is to assist the Pitt County Council on Aging in senior citizen outreach activities. According to Smith, a graduate of ECU, “We need to let people in Pitt ish sniffing testing large quantities of fish. The 15-year veteran claims that his skill “like anything eise is a matter of experience and training. Almost anyone can tell the difference between a really good smelling fish and a really bad one.” Throm said that after a day of fish sniffing, “you know you've done a hard day’s work. playgrounds, youth and_ senior-citizens programs, in addition to making city-hall aware of problems in poverty areas. Smith further stated, “We act 'VISTA program alive and well in Greenville ; primarily as advisors by showing the people we are working with how to go about doing things. We let them do things for themselves. We do not do it for them.” The VISTA workers have gone about recruiting volunteers by having inform ation tables around campus and by speaking to various classes. The purpose of this is to make people aware of this volunteer program. Anyone wanting to get involved, may come by the office at the Methodist Student Union, or call 658-2030. Also the Volunteer Student Association meets on _ the third Wednesday of every month at 7:00 p.m at Mendenhall. The meetings are open to the public According to Smith, “The important thing is to keep both the volunteer happy and the organization happy with the volunteer.’ Jim Wynn summed _ up, Citizen participation, community involvement, and individual awareness are of utmost importance. We must have the support of the community if we are to achieve our goals. Our efforts are your efforts.” Baldness cure (CPS)--A New York physician claims to have found a cure for baldness.

Produced by Paul Rothchild, the album boasts a crew of ver 25 musicians including such old-timers as John Sebastian, Jackson Browne, and J.D. Souther. Other outstanding members of “The Team” are female vocalists Emmy Lou Harris, Venetta Fields, and Maxayn Lewis r those not familiar with Ms. Raitt, she is a pretty lady who can sing almost anything from blues to ballads to rock n Bonnie's outstanding, versatile vocal jualities are matched by her ability to play electric slide guitar ter other four albums include original material and are highlighted by such ong As Under the Falling Sky ack Browne) Rainy Day Man (James Taylor That Song About the Midway ni Mitchell), and “Bluebird : hen Stills), all rearranged by Bonnie ngs on Home Plate continue in the ame trend although there is no yriginal material this time: they range hot little boogie tunes to me fine ballad-type numbers best song on the album is tune, “Walk Out the Front North Carolina Dance Theatre Wed. and Thurs. The N.C. Dance Theatre will present two performances on the ECU campus this week.

A piano and percussion intro set the tempo with which the sing-along melody builds up to an explosive chorus highlighted by full background vocals and a complete horn section. Bonnie really “tells it” here, as she does in “Sugar Mama,” a great iittle jive song in which she accompanies herself on the electric slide. Backing her up are Fred Tackett on the Fender Rhodes, John Hall on electric guitar, and Jai Winding on the clarinet. Other outstanding fast tunes are “What Do You Want the Boy to Do” and “Good Enough”, both underlined with great background vocals and horn arrange- mets The album slows down a little which some beautiful slow ballads and blues songs, such as “Run Like a Thief” by the Linda Ronstadt-acclaimed J.D. Souther, My First Night Alone Without You,” and Blowin’ Away”. “Run Like a Thief” is accented by performances by Will McFarlane on phaser guitar, John Sebastian on autoharp, and Jackson Browne on background vocals. “My First Night Alone Without You” has a sad, wandering melody highlighted by a haunting string arrangement. The strings also make a nice addition to ‘Blowin’ Away” as they do a duet with Ms. Raitt’s melody The album is wrapped up with an Id-timey drinking song, “Your Sweet and Shiney Eyes,” accompanied by some honky-tonk piano and accordion playing In any case, the title of Bonnie's album, Home Plate , is without a doubt iN appropriate one, as she has scored a hit once again OSOOOO6 OOOO OOOOOOHOOOOOECO ©@.
