Fountainhead VOL. 7, NO. 17 6 NOVEMBER 1975 EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA Chief Cannon releases statement Prior to Friday, October 31, 1975, Halloween night, | anticipated the need for additional! police protection in the Downtown area and made arrangements for several extra officers to be on duty. Two on-duty police officers were assigned to the area, three officers’ shifts were changed in order that they could work this special assignment, and the Greenville Night Club Owners’ Association hired two off-duty police officers to work, totalling seven policemen assigned solely to the Downtown area Friday night On the evening of October 31st, at approximately 11:15 P.M., | received a telephone call from Chief Dispatcher Allen Heath, Squad A, on duty at that time, advising me that Lt. J.H. Tripp had called him by mobile radio, instructing him to notify me that the Halloween crowd in the Downtown area was getting extremely unruly. | asked Allen exactly what the situation was at that time. He advised that the Lieutenant had told him there were 450 to 500 people congregating in the area and they already had Cotanche Street, between Fourth and Fifth Streets, blocked. | advised the Dispatcher that | would be right on down and directed him to go ahead and call out the Day Chief, Squad C. When | arrived Downtown and viewed the situation on Cotanche Street, | realized that we still would not have enough men to properly handle the riotous crowd and requested additional assistance from State ABC Officers and the Pitt County Sheriff's Department. Additional help arrived at approximately 11:45 P M. By this time, the revelers had gotten completely out of control, and | directed Lt. J.H. Tripp to use a megaphone and issue orders to the crowd to disperse from the area within five minutes. | further instructed the Lieutenant to warn them that anyone left in the area after the five minutes were expended would be arrested. Lt. Tripp was at the intersection of Fourth and Cotanche Streets when these dispersement orders were given ad moved on down the street and was standing in the vicinity of the Olde Towne Inn restaurant on East Fifth Street. | heard the orders very clearly. After these orders were issued, we waited five minutes and longer, and the crowd did not seem to be scattering but getting worse | then instructed Lt. P.L. Jewett to use Our Pepper Fog generator (not tear gas) to try to move the crowd. Use of the Pepper Fog did not assist in the movement of the owd. At this point, the rear window of Police Car 511-15 was broken out Four or five of our police officers were injured by flying bricks and bottles When these measures failed, | directed Lt.

An observer of the Halloween incident has begun circulating a petition calling for an investigation of the disturbance by the Greenville City Council Kid Goodman said he saw _ what happened Friday night and that too many of his friends were arrested for no reason The scarey thing is that it could have been me or you who got busted,” he told Fountainhead Tuesday Goodman announced at a meeting of the Greenville Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union Wednesday night that he had more than 1139 names so far The petition has been circulating for three days, Goodman said Goodman noted that petitions are placed ai Newby's Sub Shop, Rock-n+ Soul, and the Tree Horse restaurant fo anyone interested in signing TIM SULLIVAN AND RAY HUDSON, members of the Executive-Legislative Select Committee on the Downtown Greenville Disturbance, examine blood stains on Fifth St. & Reade St. The blood reportedly belonged to Gwynn McDonald, an ECU student, who according to friends, was hit in the face with a tear gas canister. She was disappointed with discharged from Pitt Memorial Hospital yesterday. the intersection of Fifth and Reade Streets ana began reassembling on Heaue Street between Fourth and Fifth Streets. During this regrouping, one of our police officers was shot in the face with pellets from a pellet gun. However, at this time, we did not know a pellet gun was used | then instructed my officers to make arrests for “inciting a riot’. It was at approximately this time in the sequel of riotous events, that the Pepper Fog generator stopped working and our tear gas supply was exhausted. The riotous group which had reorganized on Reade Street began moving back up Fifth Street. | then called the Fire Department for assistance. The Fire Department brought a truck to the area and began spraying the crowd with water, causing them to move back once again. However, the fire truck was only at the scene for a few minutes when it received orders from supervisory personnel in the Fire Department to return to the Main Station. There was still a crowd of approximately 300 people at the intersection of Fifth and Reade Streets when the fire truck left. After the fire truck left the area, the crowd began moving up Fifth Street again. My officers, under the capable leadership of Lt. P.L Jewett, formed a riot control formation and tried to drive the crowds back once more However, with no tear gas or shields to protect them from thrown bricks, bottles, and glass, they had no alternative but to retreat At this point, the rioters moved up Fifth Street, breaking store windows, damaging other property and looting the Tetterton’s Jewelry Store window counter. Total amount of property damage, $3,075. Total number of arrests, 56. Total number of officers used: 19 already on duty; 26 called on to assist in riotous situation, 4 ABC Officers; and, 5 Pitt County Sheriff's Department deputies In conclusion, | must report that | have nothing but praise for the officers of the Greenville Police Department for the manner in which they handled themselves during the riotous incidents which occurred last Friday night and Saturday morning. They did a fine job, under the circumstances, and | am proud of all of them. | honestly believe we could have easily had another “Kent State” condition if the officers had not managed the situation as they did. They behaved like true professionals and upheld their positions as public servants E. G.

Yes we care, the SGA is saying, so we axed $12,000 from that outrageously high pub board budget bill. On a quick look maybe most students will think that the SGA did them a service by turning back those amendments that would have tacked $12,000 to the bill. But, that realization of a savings is nothing but a short term, near sighted savings. In the long run the SGA did not save a dime. Over the next few years their savings will turn into a big loss for the students we think. This service was in actuality a dis-service to all ECU students here today and those to come in the future. One amendment that the SGA turned back dealt with restoring some of the money that was viciously axed from the Rebel budget. Some veteran ECU students may remember when the Rebel, the campus literary magazine, was published once each quarter and was hailed as one of the best such publications in the state and the South. Times changed, staffs come and go and in the last few years the Rebel has been plagued by a lack of staff and late deadlines and hit rock bottom last year But, as we noted, times change and this year with a new and ambitious editor who wanted to start the journey of building the Rebel back up to its previously lofty standings a budget request to print two books was submitted. But, the Appropriations Committee, working under direct pressure from SGA president Jimmy Honeycutt, axed the Rebel budget in half leaving the new editor with only one option--print one book. How the hell does the SGA think the Rebel will ever climb back up to the status it enjoyed several years ago by printing only one book a year? So, students will more than likely complain about the Rebel again this year and blame the staff. In truth they should blame all the SGA members who axed the budget and left the staff little to work with. Then, there is the case of the request by the Publications Board to hire a part-time secretary to operate a Publications Office. Such a secretary would work for the editors of all three major publications handling mail, correspondence, keeping records, etc. Such a secretary working for the newspaper alone would pay for itself in a year through the advertising gains the paper could make. And since the position would almost be self-supporting it did not seem unreasonable to expect the SGA to go along with the idea. But, the SGA chose to ignore the facts presented to them. They voted against funding a secretary. So, the short term goal of saving a buck was met. But, what about the long term effects? Cutting the paper staff does not help the paper in its attempts to expand. Cutting the Rebel does not help its efforts to get the book back up to past levels. Cutting the Pub Board secretary does not help any of the publications in their attempts to carry out day-to-day operations and even cost money since potential advertising to the paper is lost Unfortunately this year the SGA is loaded with too many short-sighted legislators. Questions need answers Negative student reaction and opinion about the powers that be in Greenville continue to mount in the wake of the disturbance Friday night. General reaction Monday and Tuesday among most students was heated enough that fortunately cooler heads prevailed and no rash action pertaining to a demonstration or boycott were initiated. But, there still is a general consensus among the student body that Greenville should investigate the incident, particularly in the area of just what really started the rock throwing, window breaking, arrests, and all the actions that occurred. Was the general scene Friday night around midnight one to cause the local police to hit the crowd with tear gas? Was it of such a nature that tear gas had to pump into the crowded bars? Was it of such a nature that some students were even charged with inciting a riot-no small charge by any stretch of the imagination. These and many more questions deserve answers. And, hopefully, the powers that be in this community will not sweep the student charges under the mat. a Lae ea NE TTS ES I REED “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 Feature’ Editor--Jim Dodson Sports Editor--John Evans Thomas Jefferson Fountainhead is the student newspaper of East Carolina University sponsored by the Student Government Association of ECU and appears each Tuesday and Thursday during the school year.

Evidently, last Friday night there was a tremendous lack of communication between the Greenville City Police and what has been labeled a crowd of Halloween night revelers. This lack of communication resulted in a_ contest between tear gas wielding policemen and a virtually uninformed group of people. The results of the contest have not yet been finalized, but early reports indicate that 56 persons were arrested and nearly four thousand dollars worth of property damage inflicted. According to Monday's Daily Reflect- or, in its editorial “No Place for the Disorderly”, shocking and disturbing events took place in the downtown Greenville area Friday night. One stops to wonder exactly who was shocked and disturbed to the greatest extent. According to news accountings, police finally culminated attempts to break up a crowd of Halloween night revelers with tear gas. Many first-hand accounts of the ordeal reveal that the Greenville City Police actually ordered the crowd to disperse and proceeded to liberally pump tear gas into any area, including buildings, which harbored many unsuspecting persons. This is rather gauche according to the present-day crown control tactics. The objective of this letter is not to debate the placement of blame but to shed some light upon what appears to be another breakdown of communication as well as a gross misplacement of values. Again making reference to the Reflectors editorial, the editor tends to use students (presumably East Carolina students) synonomously with the disorder he is attempting to reprimand. The author allowed that students were indignant that such tactics were used. This is for the most part true. However, the rebuttal which the editor provides is weak. Weak in that the reasoning behind the police tactics seems to be nothing more than “there have been a series of troublesome evenings downtown over the past year or so.” The next offering made by the author was that the city has been tolerant in allowing the night club district to develop. This can be agreed with. It is then stated that “the result has been some wild nights both downtown and on the ‘hill’ on campus.” This statement is derogatory to the on-campus residents and otherwise absurd. Is this editorial reflective of the sentiment of most Greenville residents? Does the editor mean to say that Greenville has been exceedingly tolerant by allowing East Carolina to develop in their community? If so, reconsideration should be given by all those of this Greenville gains from the university. There have been visions of Greenville as the cultural, financial, educational, and medical center of the East. However, if one should remove East Carolina participation in achievement of these goals he would see a rapid deterioration of these ambitions. Foremostly, the merchants and citizens should consider the income they Friday night incident gain throughout the year as they deal with East Carolina students and faculty. Admittedly the merchants have a captive group of customers, but the approxi- mately 3 million dollars spent by students should allow the students and faculty more courtesies than have been shown by the aspersion cast in the Reflector’s editorial. Perhaps, if the city fathers are establishing a more responsible leadership among the students and a clearer channei of communication in order to avoid further incidences such as the Halloween riots, a student representative might be allowed on the city board of commissioners. interestd in Joseph S.

You can’t force Americans to obey with sticks and tear gas, but you can sure make them mad. | think old Ben Franklin would agree with me on that one. You get short-term resuits and long-term disgust.

First, the bars are in this area of town, and you aren't going to keep young people out of the bars on Halloween unless you close them. Leave the bars open. Station police in this area to stop any loitering or congregating on streets or sidewalks. Use the town common along Reade St. at 4th and 5th for congregating, but who wants to gather on empty ground? Fill it up. Light it well, and let an organization have an old (or new) fashioned Halloween carnival - best costume, hot dogs, games, the whole bit. How many peopie would resent a police officer telling them the, could not congregate all they liked just one block away. You have given these people an alternative, an attractive alternative that others have already taken ‘Say, Joe, what do we want to hang around here for man, everybody's down on the town common.” lf that many people (two thousand or so) want to be somewhere, give them somewhere to be, fatten up the treasury of a worthy organization besides. !f you think that would just encourage the congregating, look at the situation now If these people want to meet so badly now that they'll brave the tear gas, they are not just going to suddenly stop next year. Meet the problem instead of hoping it will maaically disappear. The City Park in my hometown, Burlington, used to open full blast on Halioween. It was the oniy place you were allowed to congregate, but the only place you wanted to congregate. It all ended with the biggest fireworks display of the year, and you went home too tired to break a window. As for the beat-up generation, | don't know yet, | just joined. | hope my Pear!

The Pub Board originally asked for $135,957.16, $5,824.93 less than they finally received after two hours of discussion and debate by the legislators. “| think the Legislature acted properly,” commented Speaker Ricky Price, “but | also know that many people will be unsatisfied. It was the most hotly debated session of the year tonight.” The bill, which has been in the appropriations committee for four weeks, contained budgets for the Buccaneer, the ECU annual; the Rebel, the ECU literary magazine; and Fountainhead, the school newspaper. Also included was the budget request for the Publications Board, the group which coordinates and oversees the campus media. When the chiefs of the publications learned of the cuts the appropriation committee made last week, they met, and according to Mike Taylor, Fountain- head editor, “set our priorities and asked that certain items be reinstated” by the Legislature. Those items, which were for Fountainhead salaries, a Pub Board secretary and money for a second Rebel to be printed during the year, proved to be the major points of debate for the session Craig Hales, chairman of the appropriations committee, called on the Legislature to go along with the cuts his Jenkins By JIM ELLIOTT News Editor ECU Chancellor Dr. Leo Jenkins does not believe that getting tough with students is the way to prevent future disturbances like the Halloween incident last Friday night. | believe that self-restraint is the best thing for both students and police to observe in the future, Dr. Jenkins told Fountainhead Wednesday. “We as citizens must act with rules,” DIAMONDS - WATCHES - he said. Jenkins said he has instructed committee made and oppose any of the reinstatements. “!’m proud of my committee’s work,” Hales said. “We increased the publications bill more than $26,000 over last year. What else can we do? They want every last penny from the students, and we aren't going along with that.” “A ten percent increase of nothing is still nothing,” stated Taylor, who represented his publication at the session. T ‘lor stated that Fountain- head’s salary increases were justified because of the larger papers put out this year. “We put out 56 pages for the students to read this year as opposed to 32 last year. My people work harder.” The Amendments to the committee's proposal all failed, and the only change the Legislature allowed was a reinstate- ment of the Fountainhead’s photo- grapherss salary to $50 per week. The committee had cut it to $40, but Chairman Hales offered the amendment and asked the Legislature to change his committee report on that item. The allocations given to the publications after the Legislature vote were: Fountainhead: $65,483.54 Rebel: $8,641.00 Buccaneer: $66,826.00 Pub Board: $1,051.00 This does not include the emergency appropriation of $3,911.63 given to the publications by SGA last month to pay salaries and buy supplies until the general budget was approved. reacts Dean of Student Affairs James H. Tucker and James B. Mallory, associate dean of Student affairs, to conduct an investi- gation of the incident and to report their findings to him. Although he was not there, Jenkins said he does not like for students to be blamed for all that happened Friday night, when more than half of those arrested were not ECU students.

Whose default is it; government or New York City By KIM JOHNSON Staff Writer President Ford has said that he absolutely will not O.K. the appropriation of federal funds to assist the city of New York in its financial crisis. Commentators across the country are discussing this issue now. Should the President stand firm on his decision or should he reconsider and help New York City with federal money before it is forced to default? We look to the students of ECU for opinions. New York City needs some kind of help!’ says student Charlotte Cheatham It's part of the very backbone of America and it needs to be kept alive in any way possible. Obviously the city really needs have a great financial reform. But they 10 need something to get them through lf the federal government 1 | really think they this bad period is the only way had better do it Charlotte's comment was echoed by many other students. Kay Turner was concerned about al! of the people of the city but also added that a financial reform’ is needed Yes, | do think Ford should reconsider. If they go bankrupt, what's going to happen to all those billions of people? We can't allow them to go under. But | do believe that after they're given the help, they )uld be put on some sort of probation period and given a tight budget to work Bev White added to the two previous remarks by mentioning the effect she felt f New York Clty will have on the entire na Think about it: just about everything finds its core there. The very nucleus of big business, the arts, American culture in general, lies in New And we just can not ignore David Nash, said that he thought the Federal government should but could understand why Ford doesn't want to do it. “If he does it this city, every other city in the U.S It's ridiculous do that when were trying to One student ielp the city t the same thing for him tc yet away from the Federal government stepping into state matters all of the time, too. However, | don't know what he y going to do if they don't get some kind of help And Jan Durham added, ‘| don’t think they'll be able to get out of this by themselves. They do need help and the government seems to be the right for this help to me were other students strongly against Federal funds for New York City. Jenny Miller was one such student. “| don’t think Ford should change his mind. The city got tself into this and it can get itself out of it. Suppose this happened elsewhere in the country. If Congress does it for New York City, they're going to have to do it for every other city and that’s just not Federa means However there that felt just as right. We must draw the line somewhere between the Federal government's responsibilities and the state’s responsi- bilities.” Rodney Freeze backed Jenny up on this. “Why doesn’t the state support the city? Why should the Federal government have to do it? The Federal government is for all of the states. So why should the others have to suffer because of one? The state of New York should, in my opinion, solve this within itself.” Karen Rhodes mentioned the other possible ways that the Federal government might assist the city. “Maybe a WPA Work Program Administration. - such as was used during the Depression would work. And, too, there's the possibility of another National Recovery Act. But | do not think the Federal government should just give them the money.” Interestingly enough, though, the majority of the students that were posed with this question showed definite signs of total apathy concerning the future of “The Big Apple.” One student said that if this problem was in, say, Atlanta, Georgia, instead of a northern city, people around here might be more concerned. As it was, so many had nothing to say One way or another. But it is this unconcern only a characteristic of the south? The FOUNTAINHEAD was fortunate, in making this survey, to come across a former ECU student that is now living in New York City, McCall Thompson. According to McCall, the peopie of the city itself are not too terribly concerned, either. “| haven't heard anyone even discuss it. Most of them don’t know what’s going on anyway!” And when asked what he felt Ford should do, he very emphatically replied, ‘‘No, | definitely do not think Ford should change his mind. New York City should not be in the hole to begin with! If anything is to be done, the people that live there ought to do it. Maybe then they would learn how to handle their finances. This whole business is just ridiculous.” A Heaven on earth planned (CPS)--Construction of heaven will begin on Palm Sunday, April 11, 1976 in Springfield, Mo Gold-brick streets wandering through a 200-foot plot will lead past a fiberglass Jonah-swallowing whale and a /71-foot plexiglass Jesus. Concessionaries dressed like the children of Gideon will work the streets selling hot dogs and hamburgers. Promoter Johnnie Hope plans to create a Bible Belt Disneyland by “making the themes of the Bible come alive through modern technology.” Hope estimates that his Bible City will cost $20 million when completed in about five years. That Disneyland touch has been guaranteed by hiring an ex-Disney engineer-architec’ to take charge of all construction. Among the exhibits already on the drawing board are a Tower of Babel, the Garden of Eden, and an imaginary scene from heaven. “The primary purpose is educational and inspirational,” Hope said. “It'll be like an adventure.” a etki iil i i ee ee He presen possib service an an Planni held « Studer Ac!

Health Careers Day, an annual offering of the ECU Career Planning and Placement Service, will be held on Nov. 6, 1975 in Mendenhall Student Center from ten a.m. to one p.m. According to Placement Service Director Furney K. James, “Representa tives (of the meeting) from N.C. and other states are from hospitals, mental health clinics, public health departments food services, correctional services, vocational rehabilitation agencies, and the Red Cross Blood Center.” These representatives will be interest- ed in seeing majors from Nursing, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Medical Technology, Social Work and Correctional Services, Medical Record Science, Dietetics, Music Therapy, Speech, Language and Auditory Patho- logy, Community Health, Child Develop- ment and Family Relations, Food Services, Environmental Health, and Rehabilitation Counseling. The Career Planning and Placement Service with offices in the Alumni Building on campus, is free of charge to all ECU graduates and graduates of other institutions who have completed 15 quarter hours of work at ECU. Students should register with the Placement Service while in the senior year or while in Graduate School. The registrant of the service is informed of job recruiting interviews after his personal file has been completed Copies of the student’s references can be obtained by prospective employers from the Placement Service. The Placement Service provides important literature Concerning occupa- tional opportunities which will acquaint the job-seeking student or graduate with employment opportunities of various areas. The Placement Service Office is informed each day of job openings and the registrant is subsequently given notice of these vacancies as they relate to his specific field of interest A registrant seeking job counseling can make an appointment with Service Director James who informs him of up-to-date changes in the employment world. Any eligible student is advised by Placement Service officials to make inquiries about respective job opportuni- ties in his field at some time during his years at ECU The sole purpose of the Career Planning and Placement Service is to aid students and graduates in finding careers and vocations most suitable for them and to provide informative materials for locating available jobs Appointments for interviews at the Placement Service Office in the Alumni Building can be made by calling 758-6050 Rape victims rejected (CPS)--Rape victims often do not find a helping hand at their local hospitals, according to a new government-funded survey. In fact, many private hospitals refuse to examine and treat rape victims and others charge as much as $75 for the services The survey, conducted by the Center reluctance to provide medical testimony and disparaging attitudes toward rape victims,” the report continued. Rape victims are often forced to wait for a long time in the hospital's crowded emergency room before they are examined The report also pointed out that police departments often do not have the for Women Policy Studies, said that technological capability to identify ‘most police officers have difficulty rapists.

WEEKDAYS 7:30 ONLY AIDeSs aa! _ALL SEATS $1.00 _ Aquatic research studies weeds By STAN HOLLOWELL About $50,000 in grants from the UNC Water Resources Research Institute and the National Science Foundation is involved in a study of the aquatic weeds growing in the Pamlico River estuary, according to Dr. Graham Mavis of the ECU biology department. “Most people despise these weeds but they are important as food, and they prevent erosion of the bottom and break wave action,” Dr. Davis said. “We are studying dissolved and fine particulate foods in relation to deoxidization in bottom waters. “The grasses decay and are used as food.As bacteria uses this food, oxygen is used up and under certain conditions could cause an absolute oxygen depletion. “This could result in either a fish kill or at least kill lots of organisms which live in the sediments and are an important part of the ecological system. “Some future research needs include the study of the relative importance of various food sources, what food is used and what is not, and growth, death, and decay dynamics under varying con- ditions.” ECU biologists are also involved in research to find a way to control the Eurasian water milfoil plant which has become a national problem, according to Dr. Davis. “The Eurasian water milfoil came to the Currituck Sound and northeastern N.C. from the Chesapeake Bay. “In the past ten years this plant, which grows in dense mats with long, tough stems, has posed a very serious problem. “In some areas you can’t go more than 100 yards in a boat before you have to tear the plant from the propeller.” Water sports are obviously limited, but there is also a health problem. The plant provides a breeding ground for mosquitoes, according to Dr. Davis. “In the summer of 1974, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the N.C. Department of Conservation and Deve- lopment applied the herbicide 2, 4-D to Kitty Hawk Bay, Point Harbor, and Martin Point in lower Currituck Sound. “We had a grant from the ECU Institute for Coastal and Marine Resources to study changes in the aquatic community following the herbi- cide treatment. “The 2, 4-D killed the milfoil, without any serious environmental effects, but the control will last a maximum of three years.” However, there are other ways of possibly controlling the plant through biological manipulation or commercial harvesting, according to Dr. Davis “Commercial possibilities include it’s use as food for cows, as a supplement in chicken feed, or as organic mulch for gardens or farms.” The Institute for Coastal and Marine Resources has also financed the study of estuary pollution from shoreline septic tanks, according to Dr. Davis. “We drilled eight pipe wells down to the water table at each of two sites at the mouth of Broad Creek, east of Washington, N.C. We want to try to determine the movement of nutrients in the groundwater from the absorption area of the septic tanks to the estuary.” Some tentative conclusions have been reached but further research is needed to find ways to eliminating or controlling this pollution according to Dr. Davis. Dr. Davis will give a progress report on some current biological research Thursday, Nov. 6, at 7:30 p.m. at the meeting of the ECU Sigma Xi science society in the biology auditorium. ECU Promotions announced Julian Vainright has been appointed ae manager of ECU and Alex White named comptroller of the university Both Vainright and White are veteran officials of the ECU business office Their appointments were announced by C.G.

Dr. David B. Stevens and Richard arris reported recent steps taken at ECU o initiate changes in response to Title IX bf the Educationa! Amendments of 1972. itle IX regulations, prohibiting sex bias in all aspects of public educaiton, were yublished this past summer. “Title IX provides that no educational nstitution which received federal inancial assistance can use sex alone as i basis for how it treats its students or 2mployees,” said Dr. Stevens. The speakers summarized the structure of a campus-wide committee, somposed of ECU students, faculty and staff members, who will oversee reforms n the functional areas of admissions olicies, housing, academic programs, sounseling services, financial aid, athletics, student affairs and employ- nent. ECU’s Title IX reform in every area axcept athletics must be reported and nitiated by July 22, 1976. “The effect of Title IX upon athletics yas been the object of much confusion and controversy in Congress and in the nedia, but we feel that the amount of soncern given to this aspect of education yas been out of proportion to its ww eee eee eee) COAB4GEHAKZEZEZ HEHE 44444446464 OHOUGQG OQ} C0 ERROR Oe ee Oe ee ee ee oe ee MEERA AEAEAEEHAAEEAHAEEE CORREA KEREREREEEA a@aane ee importance in the total scheme,” said Dr. Stevens. Farris emphasized that Title IX will cover both intercollegiate or varsity sports, and intramural athletic programs. “Under Title IX, directors of athletic programs will have the responsibility to provide comparable sports activities for interested women students,” he said. “In some cases, involving such non-contact sports as golf and track, teams might be open to both sexes. “Other sports would require the establishment of a team for each sex, with comparable facilities, comparable staffing and comparable equipment.” U.S. colleges and universities have until 1978 to complete Title IX reforms in athletics, he noted, while public schools must be in line with the regulations by 1976. “If the campuses are to have numbers of women students interested and experienced in athletics, the high schools must prepare them by offering better sports programs for girls,” he said. “In North Carolina, women’s basket- ball during the late thirties was an important sport. In the western part of the state, high school giris’ teams often drew more crowds than the boys,” he added. “Since then, high school girls’ teams have been gradually de-emphasized and many schools have simply dropped them altogether. Now we have to build them back up again.” BARB EHAAREREHAAABAEMRAKAAHAAAOAAKAAMAOAEAHEE "BOOK TRADER BEA ZHAZABAEABEZEBER BEE EKAEBZAKZEEBHABAAKBEEEE “Super FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 17/6 NOVEMBER 1975 ] 3 CLASSIFIED ) HEY!

It was not one of the bigger crowds, in the student section or general admission i side either. To all those people who stayed away, you missed a whale of a football game. The Pirates came through when they had to and took a hard-fought victory away from Furman. It was a credit to the coaching staff, players and fans that there was some good football played, and a lot of enthusiasm to boot. For after playing Central Carolina | last week, many, myself included, were expecting a minor letdown. Too, it was a shame the players, fans, etc., couldn’t retire to their favorite retreats ‘fl after the game anc: celebrate in East Carolina fashion. But that is the way it goes i sometimes. The New Director of Athletics 2 it probably surprised absolutely no one that Bill Cain was made Director of s Athletics officially Saturday at 1:30 p.m., at a news conference held in the Pirate Club Building. oo From a personal viewpoint, one that comes to you totally without rehearsal, this Sia Gaakel writer would like to congratulate Dr. Jenkins and the committee that approved the selection of Bill Cain. So frorn this writer goes a personal thanks to the entire group that made the selection possible. It is one you will never forget. In the meantime, Cain will be (and has been) very busy attempting to adjust to his new position, as the business of the Department of Athletics has to go on. (appa Sigr lent one am appa Sig loss. The), mM meme is tn Quotable Quote Finally got a chance to look at the game program from UNC of two weeks ago, and this writer would like to go on record at this time by saying that the resulting j feeling | got from reading through the pile of pulp would only be matched, in B probability, by the same one (feeling) that the various UNC faithful (that number is dwindling, too) have had for the past three weeks (make that four weeks). With no reservation or qualified footnote, it states in that program that the head football coach of UNC “is responsible for getting the ACC a new national image in football.” Horsefeathers. Granted, he has had some success there, but to actually take credit for being a leader in something that existed decades before his presence? The sad part about it is that those people up there actually believe that stuff... After Wake whipped the Blue Boys Saturday, a notation was made that the last three teams to win in Kenan Stadium had one thing in common. Yes, Notre Dame, Wake and the beloved Pirates have one thing in common: gold is a school color, though in varying degrees. And as the conversation piece ended, “Now we know why, even though the sky is Carolina blue, we never find a pot of Carolina blue at the end of a rainbow.” y Saiurday in Charlottesville There shoud be a finecontingent of Pirate supporters in Charlottesville Saturday, urging the Pirates against the Cavaliers and former Pirate head coach Sonny Randle. There is no use at this point in pointing out the disparaging remarks Randle has made since leaving Greenville, because unless this writer hears them first hand, he will usually doubt their validity. That is an inside edge you get from working in this business. Nevertheless, this time one must go out on a limb and make a statement: There is going to be one hell of a football game in Charlottesville Saturday. It will be a football game in which the Pirates have everything to gain and not one damn thing, other than pride to a degree, to lose. Just as two weeks ago going against UNC, the Pirates would normally be going into the game as underdogs. But because of the Cav record, the odds put ECU as the favorites, as they have played some fine football of late. What will decide the game? This writer tends to think that the game at The Citadel decided it. It was in that ball game that the Pirates seemingly picked themselves off the floor and decided that they did indeed have more talent than was previously displayed. The Cavs meanwhile have a one-point victory over VMI, and did play a little better against Vanderbilt last week while losing. But the players have not responded to the fire tactics of Ulmo Shannon, and unless a miracle can be created in the hills of Western Virginia Saturday, look for the Pirates to hang one on the hosts. Continued to top of page....... eueeuee weues ROKK ARN DAA FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 17/6 NOVEMBER 1975 ] ‘ From bottom Point to Ponder This writer read witn a mixture of interest and wonder a letter written by a student concerning the amount of money spent on athletics at this University While one would guess that this letter is just a matter of thinking out loud or maybe just wishful thinking, but nonetheless this writer hopes Mr. Howard will think about these questions: Have you ever really wondered why people get excited about athletics? Have you wondered why you get cold chills when you hear the Pirate Band play the national anthem prior to kickoff time? Have you ever wondered why people run into each other with the object being the moving of an oblate spheriod from one patch of ground to another? Have you ever wondered why people dress up in heavy uniforms to play this game, when they could be in the stands or elsewhere with a little less effort? And have you ever wondered why you never see a sad student-athlete? During a long period of time, you will never see a forlorn figure on this campus and be able to identify him as a student-athlete. An ex-student athlete, being that he/she is sad the fareer is over, will be a sad one, but being in some way able to contribute back to the program will soon alleviate that feeling -- the Pirate Club members can tell you this If you feel like the money spent on athletics is ridiculous and sad, as you stated, share the feelings with those around you, or better yet, a student-athlete If you have the courage to do that, this writer will guarantee a change in your thinking. If you give it a chance, there is not a single reason for you not being a different person in the long run, and a better one as well. Don’t mean to get so worked up, but that is the way the feeling goes here. This writer loves every minute of it, right or wrong, and wants people to share the feeling. You can bet This is True!

But, Oct. 28, Dennis Honeycutt reversed his decision and ruled that the SGA President could not grant a leave of absence to Brown. The decision is being appealed to the Review Board “It is unfortunate that Dennis reversed his decision, because Mike (Brown) based his decision whether or not to stay in school on Dennis's first decision,” said Jimmy Honeycutt. Denni¢ Honeycutt said he was called from his work to a meeting which included Honeycutt and Brown. During the meeting he was asked if he could grant a leave of absence to the SGA Vice President “| pased my (first decision) on Articie IV, Section 7 of the SGA Constitution which states that an election must be held within three weeks to fill any vacancy that occurs In the SGA executive,” said Dennis Honeycutt. “after | made the decision, it bothered me. It was a quick decision, and | was dissatisfied with it. | talked with Dean Tucker (Dean of Student Affairs), and Dr. Stevens (ECU attorney) They thought | should do what | believed to be right. So, | thought reversing my decision was the best, and the right thing to do.” Dennis cited two important reasons for the basis of his decision. “Mike Brown no longer has status of a student at ECU," said Dennis Honeycutt. “Therefore he cannot hold an office in the SGA.” This means that Brown is neither the SGA Vice President now, nor will he be vice president when he returns to school Winter Quarter, according to Dennis Honeycutt “To be Vice President again, Brown has to be elected to the office again,” said Honeycutt The SGA Executive Council is appealing the case to the Review Board. The Review Board has appellate jurisdiction over the SGA Attorney General's rulings decisic 1, according to Jimmy Honeycutt. “We (the Executive Council) were happy that Dennis's first decision came out the way it did because Mike is interested in the University and he wanted to stay in office. Mike based his decision to leave school on Dennis's ruling that | could grant a leave of absence to the Vice President.” Jimmy Honeycutt emphasized that time should not have been an integral factor in Dennis's decision. “This is a delicate situation since it Honeycutt. “Therefore before his firs decision | instructed Dennis that h should stick to whatever decision hy, makes “| told him the seriousness of th™ matter, and asked him if he needed extr time. He said no, that he could make his decision without extra time. That is wher he decided that Brown could be given « leave of absence.” Dennis’s second decision is bein contested because the SGA Executive Board believes that Article IV, Section | of the SGA Constitution can be read tc say a leave of absence can be granted tc an executive officer, according to Jimmy Honeycutt. When this situation existed at ECL before, the SGA left the office vacant according to Jimmy Honeycutt. Honey: cutt said Dean Tucket told him about the situation which occurred at ECU abou! ten years ago. The Executive is made up of the class officers and the executive officers of the SGA
