Fountainhead City Council meets in special riot hearing By HELENA WOODARD Assistant News Editor Mayor-elect Percy Cox asked that the SGA withdraw its recommendation for the removal of Greenville Police Chief Glenn Cannon in a special Greenville City Council public hearing held last Tuesday light Mayor Pro-Tem Cox acted for Mayor Eugene West whom Cox said was attending a very important business meeting Glenn Cannon has done a terrific job as police chief,” Cox said. “| don’t think that the City Council is going to ask for his resignation,” he added. SGA Legislator Ricky Price told the Council that he would take the request before the Legislature for futher consideration, but he reminded Cox that the resolution was passed with only one negative vote The situation is not healthy,” told the Council According to Cox, Chief Cannon was only doing his job by acting to disperse the crowds of students downtown during the Halloween “raucous.” ‘All crowds or assemblies of persons who shall, congregate on the streets or sidewalks of a city obstructing them to the inconvenience of vehicle drivers or pedestrians shall be dispersed by the police. Any person who refuses to obey the warning of a police officer shall be deemed to be in violation of this section Cox quoted from a_ town ordinance ‘Our police chief was carrying out Price orders written by and adopted by this Council,” he added Mayor-elect Cox, who first suggested that the bars be closed next year at Halloween, later retracted this statement and suggested the organization of a ‘town common” on which students could gather for such future festivities Following the hearing, several Council members gave their views on police handling of the downtown situation Councilman Clarence Gray said he believed the biggest problem was students were not given an exact route out following the disturbance. “| would not agree to close the bars downtown,” Gray added. “We may as well close them down every night if that’s the case.” “| don’t believe in the use of tear gas at all,” City Councilwoman McGrath said She added that the use of a water hose would have been better Councilman Howard did not agree to the ouster of Chief Cannon as recommended by the SGA. “! think that idea is ridiculous,” he said. Howard said he is planning to ask why the council was not contacted to discuss with police what should be done in the event of trouble prior to the disturbance ‘| think the police reacted too hastily and the students overreacted to the police,” Howard said City Councilman Frank Fuller, who is also an ECU professor, said the Greenville Police dept. has improved over the years ‘We have made tremendous strides An UNIDENTIFIED ECU student testifies Tuesday night before the City Council hearing on the downtown disturbance.

Fuller added they could always use additional training Among suggestions made by students was that the downtown Greenville bar area be blocked off to traffic on such occasions to allow students to enjoy themselves freely One student complained that at least seven bars were concentrated in a two-block area downtown making _ it difficult to prevent large crowds from gathering there A frequent recommendation made by SGA representatives was that an ex-officio student representative be allowed to actively participate in the Council meetings Councilwoman McGrath suggested that a representative from the SGA have a place on the agency to speak and represent the ECU student body “We do not have a clear line of communication. | have no doubt that we can work this thing out,” she added Mayor-elect Cox said a transcript of the entire hearing will soon be made available to the public. First, however, he said the transcripts will be taken before Police Chief Glenn Cannon for further review “No decision will be made by this Council prior to that time,” he said Students testify By SUSAN BITTNER Staff Writer Students testifying at the Greenville City Council Public Hearing last Tuesday night repeatedly told of insufficient warning from the police, blocked exits and indiscriminate use of tear gas during the downtown Halloween disturbance There was an officer with a fog horn and he did make some kind of warning but it was a very unclear warning,” said Mike Cunningham, a member of the SGA Committee on the Downtown Greenville Disturbance The majority of the Crowd when this warning was given was not in the area said Cunningham. “There was no way people could have heard the these warning | know the policeman who made the announcement and | know the policeman in the car beside him,” a Greenville resident and former National Guartsman testified Anyone who heard the ment on the other side of Fifth St. has got some mighty good ears,” said the former guardsman The warning was given but the speaker was not pointed down Cotanche St. into the crowd directly.’ “There were firecrackers going off and people were hollering. | just don’t see how people could have heard it,” said the former guardsman “One thing | couldn't understand was that in trying to disperse the crowd, the police gave the students no place to go,” announce- he continued. “All | could see was the sandwiching of the crowd together Several students testified on the confusion resulting from these blocked exits ‘The streets were blocked off and then the police moved in with teargas said SGA member Greg Davis The policemen didn’t even know what was going on | naturaily assumed that what was going to happen was that the police were going to block the streets off to allow people to congregate in one small block the block of Fourth and Cotanche Sts between Fourth and Fifth St ECU student Dennis Leonard said Complaints about the police's use of tear gas were made to the City Council They sprayed aimost everybody in the rear of the bus | was on,” said ECU student Barry Doyle The whole back of the bus was enclosed with no way for air to get out or in when the bus was filled with tear gas he said When the police began shooting pepper fog both the entrances and clubs,” Greg Davis said “There was mass panic in one club.

And, the SGA was. wise in approving these recommendations--for the most part. Calls for student-police seminars, for the ECU student body to have an ex-officio non-voting representative on the Greenville City Council, and for all charges of failure to disperse and inciting to riot be dropped against students arrested in the wake of the downtown incident were sound suggestions by the SGA study group. But, we think the study group went one step too far and hurt the other suggestions when they called for the ouster of the Greenville City Police Chief. This is not a defense of the present chief and in no way is meant to be a commentary backing his actions on Friday, October 31st. But, when the committee recommended that the chief be fired and the SGA votes yea, except for one lone dissenter, they waved the proverbial red flag in front of the Greenville City Counci! and the Greenville community for the most past. The rest of the committee's suggestions are sound and deserve study by the proper city officials. But, we feel they will fail to consider the other good suggestions in proper perspective since the suggestion list is headed by the one calling for the Greenville Chief's resignation. Perhaps the committee could have simply suggested that the Council look into the actions of the Police Chief on the night in question. But, for the student group to suggest that the community dump its police chief at the wishes of the students does not take into consideration the political reality of the situation. For the most part the students came out of the Friday night incident with a couple of black-eyes in the news and headlines. The students were for the most part blamed by the community for what happened. Now, a student group has suggested that the community drop its police chief. That suggestion made headlines but the other ones, the valid ones, were lost in the shuffle. Dropping the chief might be the best suggestion in the bunch. But, we think the committee lost a lot of its clout and hopes for community support when they suggested that Cannon be dropped. The reality of the situation is that the student body could stage about any form of protest it wanted and in no way would the city council be pushed into doing away with their chief simply because some “outsiders” don't like the man. — The other six suggestions made by the committee and approved by the SGA were sound ones. But, the call for the Chief's ouster hurt the entire case...as good a suggestion as it may have been. "WE HAVE To STOP. MEETING LIKE THIS Research continues The marijuana-sex research project at Southern Illinois University, which we made mention of several months ago in an editorial, is still alive and well (?). In fact the Illinois departments of Mental Health and Law Enforcement have approved and certified the research despite the efforts of the state’s governor. The research project, which has been awarded a federal grant of $120,000 for two years, will measure marijuana’s effects on the sexual response of male volunteers. Volunteers for the project, who have all used marijuana before, will be given the illegal drug in controlled amounts and then will watch erotic films as their reactions are monitored by machines. The research project may yet be halted. A United States Attorney in St. Louis has said he will ask the U.S. Attorney General and U.S. Justice Departrnent to stop the experiments. That is just like the Justice Department to try and block the path of modern science. No doubt the experience gained from this research would be invaluable--if not to the general public at least to those volunteers.

In so much as we are members of the student body of ECU along with ail the other students here at the School of Allied Health and Social Professions, we were very disappointed with the fact that there were no voting polls at the Allied Health building during elections.

This year's Rock-A-Thon was held during the period October 30, 31 and November 1. During that time Forrest Suggs rocked continuously for fifty-three hours at Five Points in downtown Greenville while fraternity members and sorority pledges sought donations at various intersections throughout the city. A total of $1,961.00 was raised this year. This was $300 more than collected by the A.P.O.’s in the Rock-A-Thon of 1974. Tim Smith, the A.P.O. vice-president in charge of this years Rock-A-Thon, Forrest Suggs, who did the marathon rocking, and all the A.P.O.’s and volunteers from sororities who contri- buted their time deserve to be commended and recognized for their help to this years United Fund Campaign.

SGA action draws support To Fountainhead After having read the Executive Legislative Select Committee's report on the downtown disturbance of October 31 1975, | would like to congratulate the committee on its excellent and well documented account of that evenings events. Perhaps James MacGregor Burns in his infinite wisdom would see fit to include this report among the annais of history, but what we need now is not history but action When my friends and loved ones approach, asking, “Where is justice? what answer can |, as a student of law give them other than to turn my head in shame. | am asking the SGA and the students of this university to demand that justice be done. For if the students of this campus fail to demand that justice be done, then they will be as guilty as those who have done the wrong. What can be done? As a student one can write the proper authorities; the city council, your congressman, and your SGA representative demanding that action be taken. As a student body being represented by our SGA we should not ask for, but insist upon the following 1) The removal of the city police cnief and the city manager, who demonstrated unreasonabie actions and attitudes. Bad attitudes lead to bad situations 2) The dropping of all charges regarding failure to disperse and inciting a riot, due to the failure by the law enforcement agencies to administer the law in accordance with due process and with the proper respect for the rights of citizens. Furthermore it should be noted that a demand is only as effective as one’s ability to back it up. Thus it is my belief that the student government must make most clear its willingness and ability to use all its powers to back up its demands. The SGA brags about a record budget; let’s see if they can’t make an effective use of it. We have the money and we have the people to get things done. Most of all we have the most powerful weapon; we have the truth, and with this combination we have the ability to see justice done. It’s all up to us. Most respectfully yours, E.R.

NOTICE TO ALL DORM RESIDENCES; Are you still wondering what that yellow card is that you were issued when you first came to school? Are you wondering what the devil that $3.50 fee was for after you received that yellow card? Welcome to what's left of the Men’s Residence Council (MRC). It’s a shame that those who are so dedicated to the destruction of the SGA, haven't stumbled across the many drawbacks of the MRC Though I’ve been tempted to jot down a few facts about the MRC all quarter, only complaints from my _ constituents and having my |.D. pulled twice, compelled me to do so Not all the dudes who appear to be running the dorm aren't all bad. This is exceptionally true about my dorm resident (R.A.). The thing that irks most people, are the brown nosers who follow the R.A. like a shadow and dream of someday being a R.A. themselves. When those guys get out from under the R.A.’s apron strings, they take matters into their own hands trying to make their hopes and dreams of become a R.A. a reality. These individuals try to tell somebody what to do and in turn that person politely” tells the R.A.’s shadow where he can go Though the MRC affects all male dorm students, few even know what the initials stand for. The MRC has provided many an activity, but providing and having it organized are two different matters. One of these situations arises from the MRC Hot Dog Supper after the homecoming game. The food was served from the smaller Galley Room cafeteria under Jones Hall, and the lines brought back memories of drop-add days of old The line extended from Jones Hall to at least the front of Scott Dorm. No shelter is present on the sides of fronts of these dorms, and of course it began to rain. If the argument centers around the lack of arger facilities to hand out the food, some on guys, what about the larger cafeteria under Jones Hall? How many eople eat in that cafeteria on the weekends, especially homecoming? What harm would have been done to accommodate the few brave souls who eat in the big cafeteria, to have them eat in the Galley Rom? Then the big cafeteria could have its two serving lanes fully used to capacity and also provide shelter for those who for some reason or another, waited in ‘ine. If the bigger cafeteria was not available for the MRC’s use or some other factor was the culprit for the choice of cafeterias, |'ll apologize for my statements, but the MRC's top officials told me otherwise. As for the individual hall situations, when was the double standard system enacted'? The first time my 1|.D. was pulled, it was as | passed an adjacent hall and caught a football out of surprise and self-preservation. As | threw it back, the R.A. appeared and asked for the football, but since I'm not a Namath or Jurgensen, | couldn't redirect the ball in mid-air. My 1.0. was taken and | had it returned a day or two later. Some weeks later, | was strolling down the same hall only to lay my eyes on three guys playing football in the hall at 2:00 in the morning. They were not only throwing the ball, but playing full scale football. To my surprise, one of the guilty party is a MRC hall representative and they were playing only a few doors from the hall advisors room. But there was no R.A., no hall advisor and obviously no 1|.D.s pulled. Once and a while some of us will hear that special song that makes us tum the radio or stereo up a little louder. No sooner did my fingers leave the volumn control, that the assistant R.A. appears at my door. He told me that this was a warning to turn down my Stereo and the next time he would take my |.D.Many a time guys in my hall were warned three and maybe four times to cut down the volume without forfeiture of a single |.D. Two weeks later, | went to get my mail and passed the assistant R.A. He walked into a room that had the music blaring. | State sponse | color large i | iT FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 19/13 NOVEMBER 1975 4 Pitt food stamps have varied response By CINDY KENT Staff Writer The food stamp program in Pitt County, made possible by the Food Stamps Act of 1964, has had varied response, according to Mrs. Betty Rouse, County Eligibility Supervisor for Food Stamps. “It is hard to believe there are still people in Pitt County that do not know there is a food stamp program,” said Rouse. “Yet applicant participation in the program has doubled since last winter.” Many eligible citizens who know about the program don’t apply, according to Rouse. “Either they have transportation problems, don’t bother to come in, or fee! like food stamps should be completely free,” said Rouse. Rouse is also the Pitt County Coordinator for project Outreach, a statewide organization that “lets the public be aware of food stamp program and the benefits available to low income families.” To receive food stamps, an individual must apply at the nearest welfare of food stamp office. If he is eligible, after an interview he will receive his “purchase requirement,” or the amount of money he converts to stamps. This is based on his income and the number of dependents. “Further investigation may be necessary if erroneous issues arise,” said Tom O'Shea, Social Services Eligibility Analyst. “I make visits to see if there is anything that wasn’t brought out in the interview. “These investigations determine and redetermine the eligibility of applicants requesting public assistance, said O'Shea “Most student households demand this sort of investigation.” Most of the cases involve changes in the household, such as a member who leaves, according to O'Shea. “All changes over $25 must be reported within 10 days,” said O'Shea. “Penalties for violating the Food Stamp law can be severe and include both a fine and imprisonment,” according to the “Food Stamps Handbook for Volunteers.” The main penalty used in Pitt County is to “make the individual pay the money back, and depends on the violation,” said O'Shea. “Sometimes the food stamp worker may not assess the individual with the amount,” said O’Shea. “It’s up to the worker's discretion “We have a large clientele of illiterate people in Pitt County. if the person is old and has no education, he may not be assessed with the amount,” said O’Shea According to Rouse, “For the most part students know the regulations and abide by them Troy Pate refuses Senate Faculty invitation By JOHN DAYBERRY Staff Writer Troy W.

Two students testified that the charges against them were determined by which police bus they were in. “| was on the first bus,” ECU student Doug Stole said. We stood around the police station a couple of hours and finally they came back with the second bus load. “A deputy came in and said, ‘Half of you all come with us.’ He didn't say which half or anything,” Stole said. Stole said he followed because he thought he would be processed sooner. Instead of being processed, Stole said he was placed on the second bus and charged with inciting a riot. “| guess | got in the wrong half of it,” Stole said. “Those in the first bus were charged with failing to disperse.” A similar statement was made by ECU Davis from the agenda. He said that his schedule was too full on that day, and that he was afraid that his answers would be interpreted to represent the opinion of the Board as a unit. ‘| again wrote to Mr. Pate, assuring him that his answers would be interpreted only as his personal opinions, and suggested our Janaury 20 meeting as a more convenient time for his appearance. “His response was that he could not come on January 20, and that since any later date was too far in the future to make definite appointments, his ap- student David Blakewood. “| was innocent. | didn’t do a thing. | was charged with inciting a riot just by sitting in that second bus,” Blakewood said. In an emotional voice, Gwen McDonald, the ECU coed who received a broken nose and facial cuts in the disturbance, told the Council that her doctor firsi thought she was hit by a brick. ) Miss M@ifonald said, however, her doctor found red paint when cleaning her face injuries. She said she didn’t know exactly what hit her, but she indicated she had later seen a picture of a nearby policeman with a red-tipped tear gas gun.

An essay was to be submitted if the prospective course registrant was interested and an interview was arranged with one of the Honors Seminar faculty during summer orient- ation. Meeting weekly for two hours, the honors students, upon passing, will receive three hours credit toward their General College requirements. Four professors, Dr. D. Paul Farr, Dr. David Sanders, Dr. William A. Bloodworth and Dr. Norman Rosenfeld, guided the students through ten nights of lively and often heated discussions of a diverse range of works including Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure and the Lama Foundation’s Be Here Now by Richard Alpert. No tests were administered during the quarter; a minimum of two critical essays and a project or the equivalent to a third essay constituted the requirements of Honors Seminar 101 Near the end of the quarter, Emily Bray of Reidsville, an intended Physical Therapy major, was asked her overall impression of the nine books. “The reading list included none |! had read before. | was surprised at the variety of literature (four novels, three nonfiction books, a play, and a poetry collection) We covered a great range of years beginning with Shakespeare and pro- gressing to the present.

It was great not to have an instructor shoving his own ideas down out throats. We were studying and analyzing for our own value and were not worried about tests. Honors Seminar was more unstructured than any class | have been in.” One novel read by the class, The Front Runner by Patricia Nell Warren, has been called by critics “a gay Love Story." The book, which dealt witn the homosexual world of a university track coach and one of his star runners, received much response from the students (and their roommates, friends and relatives). Music major, Mike Kincaid of Charlotte, summarized The Front Runner , stating, “! think we're boiling down to the question of legislating morals.” Each session, whether held in a classroom, around a conference table, or at the house of a professor, provided stimulating discussion of a ‘loaded’ book. Others included on the list were The Politics of Experience by R.D. Laing, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein, Rising Tides: 20th Century American Women Poets ed ied by Laura Chester and Sharon Barba, Miss Lonely- hearts and The Day of the Locust by Nathaniel West, and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M.

We have now arrived at that singularly special time known as exam wee! {also known as the Day of Reckoning, Doomsday, etc.). Relying on the extensive collective experience of its scholarly staff, the FOUNTAINHEAD is offering the following cheap advice for the harried masses. 1) Suicide notes written to friends and family are much more effective when written in blood-red ink. (It serves to emphasize the reality of exam-time misery.) 2) If your neighbors refuse to turn down their stereo as you are trying to master all that math, try reciting your theorems in time with “KC and the Sunshine Band”. A little water in your coffee (CPS)--A watered down cup of coffee is always a _ disappointment, but most people's reaction is simply a grumble and find another place to buy it. But a Suffolk County, N.Y. judge was so upset that his coffee was weak, that he allegedly had the vendor brought to his chambers’ in handcuffs and threatened to revoke his license unless he stopped watering down the coffee. As a result of this incident, a state commission has recommended that the High powered (CPS)--A high-powered hot dog shot at a Michigan youth sent him to an area hospital early in October, Michigan state police reported.

The sorrow you'll feel at having to repeat ECON is nothing compared to how you'd feel if you saw her downtown next quarter with the jock she turned to when you turned her down. 4) Be sure to keep your energy up while studying: a Hostess Twinkie has great aesthetic value. DO NOT, however, believe it when your jiveass roommate tells you beer is protein-enriched. 5) Ask your History 50 teacher for an 8 x 10 glossy of him/herself. This serves a dual purpose: it’s a great brown-nosing technique, plus it will make a great dart board when your prof flunks you anyway 6) Devise a very sophisticated and complex means of cheating, then don’t use it. In addition to the sense of honesty you'll feel, you’d be surprised how much stuff you learn while you're cheating your masterplan 7) Wait until AFTER your exams to sell your books, no matter how hungry you are. Better to wait a week for turkey than to be a turkey this week. 8) Consider the possibility of transferring to a school where the rigors of scholarly life would not be so evident.

When you have that technique, then you can progress in your musical interpretations. WROQOR This weekend, from 6 p.m. Friday thru. midnight Sunday night, Fred Kennedy and WRQR take you to a place called Fantasy Park, a place you could just barely imagine, for a rock concert so fantastic it possibly could never happen Fantasy Park is the live music lovers dream come true. The 1960's brought Voodstock, billed as the most exciting concert ever held. The 70’s can boast the California Jam on the west coast and the August jam in Charlotte. Now, WRQR and the McLendon collection bring you Fantasy Park, the greatest concert never held Fantasy Park offers Chicago, Elton John, Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Yes, Deep Purple, John Denver, The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Marshall Tucker Band, Carly Simon, James Taylor, Pink Floyd, Santana, The Allman Brothers, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and more and more. Is it possible to put on a concert so gigantic, so great it boggles the mind? The answer is yes, Fantasy Park is such a concert. You ask where it is? You'll have to look far and wide for Fantasy Park. You'll have to search your mind to find it. But when you do find Fantasy Park, and sit down on the grass next to the fifty acre lake, among the one-hundred thousand, or two-hundred thousand, or, possibly a million friends, and get into the music, you'll know where Fantasy Park is Now, just in case you can't get to Fantasy Park this weekend, if the tickets are all gone, or you can't find anyone to take you there, turn on your FM receiver, dial to 94.3 (WROQR-QUAD 94) and you'll be able to hear, in full stereo and ' QS-quadraphonic.

A: “It depends on the music you want to play. A classical background won't necessarily dO you any good in a rock band. | think most jazz musicians are more developed as soloists than rock musicians and they add an extra dimension to any band. The music field is very tight. If you want to make money performing you should be able to read music and able to work in all phases of music, such as classical, jazz, chamber music and actually anything that comes up Q: How does the ECU music department stand in relation to other North Carolina schools? A: “Very well, especially in the applied performance areas. | would say the music program is on the same level as the other programs here in North Carolina.” Q: Do you have any complaints concerning ECU in relation to music? A: “What we suffer from here is apathy. Not only in the music department but university wide. There were only 160 season tickets sold to the Artist Series program out of 11,000 students. More students should support music of all forms here at ECU. With a few exceptions we have good musical events in a variety of forms. Not only in the groups brought in to perform, but in the performances by the ECU music department. One example of this apathy is the music appreciation students who are required to attend concerts. They get a program and leave after the first piece. They are only in the course for the grade, but they could at least wait until the intermission to leave. We don’t have the quality of student here that some of the other schools do and_ that’s unfortunate.” New York Brass : Fantasy Park Concert] too technical THE NEW YORK BRASS QUINTER By BOB GLOVER Staff Writer No one will deny that the New York Brass Quintet members are excellent musicians performing a program com- posed of renown works in a variety of form. However, the concert was devoid of emotion, lacked musical vitality and could be summed up as_ being too technical. The concert was true to the stigma of classical concerts. There were tuxedos, a lot’ of bowing and a very reserved, older audience sprinkled with nodding music appreciation students. The main complaint was that there were too many 20th century pieces in the program. Not that there is anything wrong with 20th century material or classical motif in general, but any “live” performance requires a great deal of emotional input to overcome the stereo syndrome. The sensations were not unlike pulling up a chair and listening to a computer. As one patron put it, while sneaking out, “There's just so much that | can take.” The only impressionable piece, musically speaking, was “Laudes,” by Jan Bach. A subtle 20th century piece that temporarily broke the veil of boredom for the audience and the musicians. The highpoint of the evening was the encore, which obviously was intended to be the element of comic relief in this musical tragedy. The encore was a ‘ragtime piece that helped prove that the New York Brass Quintet was more than a musical machine. Music was never intended to be predictable; you win some, you lose some.

Being an inquisitive and secret listener, |, Normal Neville Tristan, decided to record their comments for the reader's interest. Florestan: ‘‘Ah, Eusubius, did you chance to hear the concert this past Sunday?” Eusubius: “But of course, Florestan - twas a pleasurable experience to hear the Overture performed so well. The brass section surely must have been inspired by the Heavenly Herald trumpets: such excellent blend of trumpets, horns, trombone, and tuba could scarcely be bettered by a recording.” Florestan: “And, Eusubius, the balance between all the parts satisfactorily made a whole; much practice by Maestro Hause and his orchestra had to be the Eusubius: “We must not overlook the soloists, ~lorestan. The School of Music must be proud to have such talented young men and women. Although Youth’s grasp of the finer points of soloist performance was lacking in places, the listener was succumbed with admiration for what they have attained in so short a life. One must be awed at what they realize in the future.” Florestan: ‘Quite right, EuSubius. Particularly, the warm, ‘ull tone of the flutist was a joy to hear and feel.” Eusubius: “Without a doubt, Florestan. However, | did not enjoy the Mahler half so well - not entirely the orchestra's fault. Why must Mahler extend his form and content so much?

What follows here is a summarized version of the report that preceeds the SGA’s conclusions and recommendations. We regret the inability to print the entire report due to lack of space. Anyone wishing a complete copy can get one at the SGA office. The following report was based upon information taken from 39 signed eye-witness accounts of students, written and oral statements from the Greenville Chief of Police and City Manager, oral statements from the Fire Marshall, the Fire Chief, a fireman, eight merchants whose property received damage and representatives of the downtown night- clubs, the Chief of Campus Security, the Dean of Women and other ECU officials Prior to the night of October 31, 1975 the Chief of Police anticipated the need for extra men downtown. The Nightclub owners hired two men, and the police had three men’s. shifts adjusted to accommodate any foreseen troubles that night.

He stated that he used no procedural manual as “no two situations are alike.” The four ABC officers used also had no prior instructions by the Chief of Police in this type of performance. Mayor West of Greenville received no prior information as to any procedure or precautions to be taken by the police in the case of a disturbance. From late afternoon to early evening young people had been patronizing the local nightclubs. According to the Fire Marshall the clubs had been following ihe fire laws as to the number of people allowed in at one time before that night. Nightclub owners stated that they enforced the rules that night as well. Although difficuit, an estimate can be made that the number of people inside the clubs and outside, either in lines waiting to get in or congregating in alleys, parking lots and on some streets, was between 1,000 and 1,200. There was no damage incurred at any place, and the various groups outside were revelous but harmless. Between 10:45and 11:00 police cars had been placed to block where 4th and 5th Streets intersected with Cotanche and Reade. People assumed that the streets were being blocked off for pedestrians. Traffic was being re-routed around the congested streets. Sometime between 11:00 and 11:15 a police car at the corner of 4th and Cotanche gave a warning by bull horn to disperse in five minutes. According to the Chief of Police, he has knowledge that it was given only once, and only at that point. No warning over a_ public address system was given at the intersection of 5th and Cotanche, where another crowd was assembled. The warning given by the Buccaneer was not heard by most of the people who stated they were there at the time. Some of the people at that spot heard a bull horn but could not make out the words. Others did not know any warning had been given. Chief Cannon, who was on the next block at the Old Towne Inn, stated he heard the warning “very clearly.” According to the Nightclub mer- chants, they and the police had agreed on a system of communication in case of a disturbance. This agreement came when need for improvement in crowd control was seen after similar incidents of a less serious nature occurred this summer. The agreement was that the managers of the taverns would be contacted before the use of tear gas so they could keep people inside and out of the streets. Chief Cannon told this committee, “Yes, | told my men to notify those inside to stay in so they won't get involved...Fred Hall - the ABC man - and some other men went to each place and told them to stay in.” According to the nightclub merchants, only one was informed that tear gas was going to be used before it was used, and that merchant was told to contradict the earlier agreement and have the people in his establishment leave. The other managers received no advance warning. During the time the warning was given, most of the people downtown were unaware of it. Policemen reportedly told individuals in the crowds to disperse, but the people continued to THURS: NIG, {IT “THE EMBERS” BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND FRI-SAT: SUN: MON: “ALBATROSS” Good Luck On Exams II! congregate, to show off costumes and celebrate. There was some drinking in public, and some fire crackers were set off. According to Cannon, there was no damage done, and no rocks or bottles §) had been thrown. People were generally #} unprepared for any strong police action. Chief Cannon told the committee that he had decided to use tear gas againstf: the crowds because he considered it al “riotous situation.” He explained: “Agi crowd becomes a riot when the traffic isk blocked. Cars could not get through.” The first use of gas - from the Pepper §. Fogger - occurred between 11:15 and§ 11:30. Chief Cannon stated that “more than five minutes” had been given after the warning. The pepper fog was used at 4th and Cotanche by the Buccaneer, at Bf the alley by the Attic, by the entrance of the Elbo Room, and by Tamerlane. Chief Cannon stated that he tried the pepper fog to disperse the crowd, and that he was attempting to make them leave the area and downtown. He stated that an avenue of escape was open to them where they could leave without fear of arrest. “If they had gone down Cotanche Street they would not have been arrested.’’ However, Cotanche was blocked with police cars and the policemen were arresting some of those fleeing. Some unspecified time later tear gas canisters were used at the major ‘congested areas near the Buccaneer and down Cotanche Street at the corner of 5% People scattered and many escaped the gas and left downtown. Others were arrested for failure to disperse. Thosej See SGA, page 16. AAAI IIIT ETI YYYYryryyrryyry ) | | | | | i] FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, NO. 19/13 NOVEMBER 1975 15 DISCOVER WHAT {< WILL BUY!

Alcohol was eportediy used at the party The regrouped crowd of people assembled near the corner of 5th and Reade numbered 300. Some reports of bottles being thrown at police, who were making seemed valid. Bricks were also ndividuals within the groups At about this time when policemen were sustaining injuries Chief Cannon received a report that one of his men was shot with a pellet gun and the same man was hit with a brick, which broke his leg The gun, and the user, were never found or seen. Chief Cannon stated that he then felt the need to arrest people for He specifically pointed to sti throwing tear gas and arrests tossed Dy inciting to riot the pellet and brick incident as a rationale for this order. Individual policemen questioned later stated that the man shot with the pellets did not have his leg broken; that another officer had had injuries to the ankle area by a tossed brick Police at this time acted mainly to the group at the corner of Sth and Reade Arrests inciting to riot By this up 5th towards which was reacting violently were made for time the crowd moved Cotanche, some breaking windows and stealing merchandise from display cases. Chief Cannon stated that a riot formation of his men was formed on 5th to drive the crowd back to Reade, but that so many rocks and bottles were used against his force, which had no shields, that the crowd was able to surge on. Major damages, estimated at over $4,000, was incurred when the crowd pushed the police back past Cotanche and 5th Near the time the crowd pushed up Sth, the police ran out of tear gas According to City Manager, Harry Hagerty, the police called for a fire truck to spray water on the people. It was called at 12:45 according to fire officials the man in charge of the truck, Lt Garris, went {to 5th with no permission from his superior. The superior was not contacted in advance, and when he learned of the truck's departure to the scene he called it back. It returned to the station at 1:10. “We fight fires, not people,” Fire Chief Ray Smith stated The man in charge of the truck stated that he “shot water but no one was wet.” lf was after the fire truck was called back, with the crowd on 5th still moving freely, than an ECU campus official was sontacted. This was the first contact of the night with a campus authority. “Joe we're out of gas,” Mr. Haggerty told Col Joe Calder, Chief of Campus Security who was awakened from bed. Mr Haggerty and Col Calder debated whether the fire truck should return to 5th Street and water used. Mr that Fire Chief Smith would have allowed his truck used if called by Haggerty. Col Calder was not enthusiastic about the idea and commented about insuring protection for the firemen. The truck was never called back The police continued to arrest people for “inciting to riot’ but the authorities gained control of 5th Street slowly. The crowd dwindled and finally dispersed According to City Manager Haggerty, the situation cooled at 3:00. Most of the injuries to both young people and police occurred during the crowd-police battle on 5th. Police report at least six men sustained serious injury. The hospital reports that eight young people were treated Throughout the night young people were arrested and placed on a police bus Chief Cannon told this committee that those arrested before his officer was shot with a pellet gun and his leg broken were charged with failure to disperse. After he stated the disturbance created bodily injuries and property damage, people were arrested for inciting a riot. He further admitted to this committee that there had been ‘“mix-ups’” in those charged with misdemeanors and those charged with felonies. “My men will go to court and clear it all up,” he said Those persons detailed on the buses reported that they were not allowed to bathroom, that they were crowded in and that mace was sprayed through the screened windows at them Many of those arrested were detained on the bus until daybreak 7 use the Haggerty has stated $100 WEEKLY possible addressing, mailing circulars for mail order firm Send self-addressed, stamped envelope: Barlow Enterprises Dept.

In fact, “the General” wishes the season could start just a few weeks later this year, due to a rash of pre-season injuries which have dented seriously his troops “Couid we cancel the season or move it back a month or two?” asked Patton. “It looks like a hospital ward around here. Our starting all-conference center hasn't practiced a day, a _ probable starting forward is out indefinitely with ligament problems, and now two of our guards are hurt. We haven't had a full quad in practice vet. “This is no time for us to be talking about playing the season, especially with US Opening against Maryiand, State, VMI and Duke, all on the road.” Patton has reason to worry. Larry Hunt, the junior center that led Southern Conference field goal shooters last year, that was third in rebounding, and that is the top returning Pirate scorer, is sidelined as a total question mark. An ankle sprain suffered just prior to practice starting has yet to respond to treatment and Hunt has yet to practice a day, this dampens the Pirates’ battle plan Then there is Ear! Garner. Garner was playing well in practice until he tore ligaments in his knee a week ago. Averaging 25 points a game, Garner had been counted on to fill in for the graduated Bob Geter. Now it is a matter of time for his injury to heal. But time is one commodity the Pirates don’t have. With guards Buzzy Braman and Billy Dineen sidelined with minor injuries, ECU is now down to just eight men for practices. The pressure now falls heavily on those remaining players. The few remaining veterans and newcomers have had to fill the slack. Senior captain Al Edwards has taken up where he left off at the end of last season with his pre-season play, where he has averaged 21 points a game in four scrimmages. He could easily be the surprise player in the conference this year At forward, Wade Kenkel is the top candidate with Garner sidelined. Henkel, having suffered through some. attitude problems last year, has blossomed to show the ability he has. For Henkel, it is a matter of playing a complete game and not just offensive shooting. He has begun to develop into a complete ballpiayer and should be a starter by the season opener The guard position is a real tossup Before his injury, Braman was the top candidate, along with Reggie Lee and two freshmen prospects, Louis Crosby and Dineen. But with the injuries to Dineen and Braman, Crosby and Lee now stand at the guard spots as the only healthy players, unless captain Edwards is switched to this position by Patton. Lee seems to have returned to the freshman form that saw him named to the Conference All-Freshman team and Tir Injuries to Hunt, other: leave Patton worrying Crosby, a high school All-American, i? showing off his stuff. Both could be starters when the buzzer sounds to star, the season. With Hunt and Garner the mos } serious injuries, big men Henry Lewi: (6-9), Tyrone Edwards (6-11), and Cla Windley )6-6) are going to have to fill the void.

It is these five players which Cremins hopes to build his future program around The best of these newcomers are Calvin Bowser and Darryl! Robinson The enthusiasm which Cremins shows when talking about these two players is warranted, but neither has yet to step on a basketball court for a varsity game. Bowser, as it stands, has missed all of practice because of a pulled hernia Cremins’ outlook on Robinson is that he is a “young talented player, who needs to grow up before he can help us.” The other New York prospects Cremins has recruited are Tony Salvo, who he calls “my type of ballplayer’, Tim Leahy and Bobby Pace Pace is the player who Cremins is hoping to get most of his scoring from Bobby is a little wild, but | can get the wildness out of him. If | do, he is the type of player who can really hurt the other team with his shooting The strength of his newcomers is so great, says Cremins, that he has dropped five varsity performers from scholarship status. He is looking to returnees Don Stringfellow, John Vukasovich, Ed Kane and Mark Campbell for help Despite the absence of goals for this year, Cremins may have a long way to go to fulfill his prophecy for the season | don’t have any won-lost goals, says Cremins. “I just want to keep the players together and get them to play as a unit. | hope | can get the basketball team going there. I've got a three-year contract and if | don’t have a good team by then, | think they should get a new , coach Chances are Appalachian won't need to get a new coach for a while, but as far as this year is concerned, it should be another long one for ASU THE CITADEL ---Last years Bulldog squad finished seventh in the conference and 5-15 overall. Most people pick the same type of year for the team this year Head coach Les Robinson doesn't agree with them and has been working his team at 6:45 in the morning to get them in better shape for this year Last year, there were a lot of games lost in the last ten minutes,’ said Robinson because we were missing two important ingredients last year, confidence and mental and physical conditioning. I’ve been working hard this year to solve both these problems “With the entire starting lineup back, | feel we have a good chance to challenge fundamentals come where we this year, if our around.’ Those five starters from last year nclude guard Rodney McKeever. Mc Keever finished third in the conference in scoring last year, but Robinson is ooking to move the offense away from being oriented around McKeever and work more on the inside game and outside shooting The big men in this plan will be Richard Johnson and Mike Ange. Johnson has been one of the best offensive men in the conference in the last three years with his shooting touch, but hasn't been getting the ball. Ange has been inconsistent in his two years. This year, says Bo, he is going to change his tune “There is no use in me getting up here and telling you how good we are going to be,” says Brickels, “because | told you all that last year and we fell on our rears.” But Brickels claims this has been a more exicitng year so far and that he is actually having fun as the Davidson head coach “This is the most fun I've had in coaching in eight years,” Says Brickels, ‘and it hasn't been fun. It wasn’t any fun last year. Probably one big reason Brickels is enjoying coaching more this year is because he has signed the long-sought after big man for his school in 7-2 Tom Dore. With senior co-captain Eppa Rixey returning with his 6-8 frame, Brickels is dabbling with some way to put both men in the lineup at one time “Because Eppa has been doing so well in practice and Dore can do what he can, | think | can play all our big men. Dore is going to have to be a basketball player by January, because we can’t wait any longer.” Besides Rixey, though, most of Brickels’ veterans have missed practice this tall, so Brickels says he really doesn’t Know much about how his team will stack up “! just don’t know a lot about our team, but the most pleasant surprise has been Rixey. He’s gotten bigger and with Dore there as a big man, Eppa doesn't have to play that role any longer.” 1974-75 CONFERENCE BASKETBALL STANDINGS CONFERENCE ALL *Furman East Carolina William & Mary V.M.I Richmond Davidson Citadel Appalachian GAMES Pet.

This way, the defense can’t stack on him.” Citadel's schedule this year is a tough one, with games against North Carolina State, Rutgers, Clemson and South Carolina on the agenda. Robinson, however, hopes these games are helpful to the program and don’t destroy the team early Our schedule this year is tougher, but | feel this will help us in the long run and | think the tougher games will make uS a better team in the conference.” DAVIDSON ---Coach Bo Brickels is one of the funniest coaches in the conference, but this year, for the first time in many, Brickels says he is enjoying the chore of coaching the Wildcats Brickels took over for Terry Holland at Davidson last year and with his team suffered through a 7-19 year, after he had promised bright things for the Wildcats With Jay Powell, Tom Verlin and Kevin Doherty out, though, Brickels is being very cautious. “Those three were the ones that along with Rixey | was going to go to war with. But | haven’t seen anything of them this year. It has given the freshmen time to play though.” In a win over Athletes in Action last week, Brickels started five freshmen and used Rixey a lot. From this play, he has found three freshmen he knows can play. One is Dore, who at 7-2 Brickels hopes will form a nucleus to build the team until the returnees from last year get back. The other frosh with good credentials are John Gerdy and Tom Jorgenson “John scored 30 points versus Athletes in Action, but we'd like to see what he is going to be like without the ball. We'd like for him to be a scorer, but he can’t be just a shooter at Davidson. “Tom thinks there is no other way to play the game except to win.. He's a leader and a competitor. He’s not strong, but he works awful hard.” Brickels is not over-confident thie! year, but rather he is concerned, anc convinced that his team will be better i 1975. “| will be extremely disappointed if w do not greatly improve over last year’s ) record. Tom Verlin, Powers and Rixey} give us something to build on and we; believe our freshmen form an exceptional group. We just aren't sure how strong, their presence will be felt in the first” year. ‘ Look for Bo Brickels to be smiling! more this year and having less to get! upset about. His Wildcats undoubtedly will be the darkhorse in the conference’ this year ‘ FURMAN ---For the first time in thres years, Joe Williams won't have Clyde anc Fessor to kick the opposition arounc with anymore. Both men have graduated?! leavingWilliams with a monumental tasP before him. For the first time in years the Paladins are not favored to win the conference ‘l Williams seems to be breathing easier this year. It must be that he doesn’t believe there is any pressure on his tearr to show anybody anything strong “This will be a lot more interesting year,” said Williams, “because we aren't favored to win. Being picked by most people to finish in the second divisior takes a lot of pressure off the players. But we will have the motivation, havinc won 20 games for three years in a row.” But don’t think that Furman is not al contender. There are still Craig Lynchl and Ronnie Smith back from last year’s conference champions team. Lynch, wh was MVP in last years tournament, wil get more scoring chances this year, but Williams isn’t planning to rely solely on his 6-6 forward for the offense. “We will be pressing and running lot more this year and our offense is going to rely more on the wings than i past years. We are going to have better ballhandlers, better shooters and _ better quickness than we did last year. Our outside shooting is going to be better and it is going to have to be.” Despite losing the 35 points and 22 rebounds a game that the two giants contributed, Williams has recruited three players to fill the holes. At the center post occupied by Leonard, Williams has recruited 6-10 Jim Strickland. Strickland will be pushed into the starting role right away, but Williams hopes to relieve the pressure by teaming Lynch in the low spot where Mayes used to play “Strickland has a great deal of talent, for someone who wasn't heavily, recruited. He'll have a lot of pressure on| him, but we hope to relieve some of it by) moving him along slowly. As long as he is set by tournament time, we'll be happy.” The other two recruits for Williams will be guards Steve Whittingham and Ray Miller. Both of these players will fill the wing positions well, according to Williams, and allow the hotshot Smith to control the play from the point position. Williams is looking to the same men to back his first tearn that handled that chore last year, when depth was a Paladin problem. The Paladins don’t have the first team talent they did last year, so See Conference on page 21 O e lack ¢ aningfu r. “Rebou' st impc id Williar eakest pc William is team tc much f hedule id Willi ifficult sc “A lot c pe of sch s to pla levelop to\ “We'll | r becau ure would k” RICHMC Richm fficials he inning pr ichmond lace finist The rea ‘ e lack of any depth will be a more ident this Peaningful factor in the team play this med, anc far e better inpy “Rebounding and depth are two of the ost important points in basketball,” inted if We Big williams. “These things are also our ast year's jfeakest points.” and -Rixeyig williams is therefore looking to build nN and welalis team towards the tournament and not xceptional }, much for the early season.

Craig McCurdy. Eastman is the only starter off last years squad, a fact which has Slone mildly worried. “Off a 10-16 team, we have only Kevin back,” said Sione. “In terms of how well our team plays and the amount of experienced men it has that will be a big question mark on our team.” But what the returning players lack in experience, the recruits will make up for in talent. One of Slone’s recruits is 6-3 guard Paul Webb. Webb was the leading J.C. scorer at Hiwasse (Tenn.) Junior College last year with a 34.3 game average. John Brown (6-9 .230) will also be one of the most important recruits for Slone in the center position. “Take John out at center,” said Slone, “and we don't have a true center. Right now he is a bit overweight and his defense needs work, but the season could hang on how well he and Webb perform for us.” Eastman averaged 16 points a game last year and Slappy is expected to either alternate with him, or play along side him, in the Spider alignment. Richmond’s schedule is another factor in how well the Spiders fair this year, according to Slone. “With our schedule we could make or break our season: right off. With the games we have with Wake Forest, Davidson, Maryland, Dusquesne and VMI right off we could ruin our team, but the schedule could help us too. “This is the first group of junior college kids I’ve ever recruited, but we had to have someone to play with since all our Starters graduated last year. I’m not opposed to recruiting freshmen, but we needed some experience from players who had played somewhere. |’m going to recruit the best players that | can. With who | have this year, it will prove if | can coach or not.” FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 7, J. 19/13 NOVEMBER 1975 2 ] VIRGINIA MILITARY ---The 1974-75 season was the best year ever for VMI basketball and, with ail his starters returning, coach Bill Blair is looking for better things in 1975-76 The present top five for Blair are the same five players who finished the season last year as starters for the Keydets, who placed a surprising fourth in the league last year It has been a long time since the VMI basketball program looked as bright. So bright, in fact, that VMI has to be considered a dark horse in the conference this year. This year's team is led by forward Will Bynum, center Dave Montgomery and backcourt and team leader Curt Reppart. Reppart set a school assist record in 1974-75. Since depth was a Keydet problem last year, Blair has recruited several good players to back up the experienced Starters. And with their home court, affectionately known as “the Pit”, the Keydets could stand a good shot at ambushing visitors under the low rafters and dim lights TEAM STATISTICS Defense Offense Pts Avg. Pts Avg WILLIAM AND MARY ---The “glorious greek of Williamsburg”, as he is called, George Balanis is excited about his team this year, following a 16-10 record last year “With all but one player returning, the biggest problem for us is finding a Football Appreciation Day Thursday, November 20 will be East Carolina Football Appreciation Day for the city of Greenville. The festivities, organized by John Dilday of the Greenville Jaycees, is designed to recognize the achievements of this years ECU football team The proceedings will take place in Ficklen Stadium at 5 o'clock, in order that both ECU students and ECU football players, as well as city residents wiil be able to attend. Greenville Mayor Eugene West will speak and make the dedication, citing it as East Carolina Footbail Appreciation Day. The day is made in an attempt to show the city’s and _ university's appreciation to the East Carolina football team and all students are encouraged to attend since many will not be in Greenville on Saturday to attend the final home game with VMI. Come out and support the Pirates. page 20. backup for Dennis Vail at center, says Balanis. “We are going to be better, but everybody in the conference is going to be better. Right now we have got to work with what we have in the conference. The conference is balanced and improved. |! wish Richmond would reconsider its decision to leave the conference next year.” Balanis plans to use the same hard nose defense and slow-down, often four corners style, offense the team used last year “We like playing good hard-nosed defense and get all five guys involved on offense. If you play good defense and rebound, you should be able to win a lot of games. “We aren't runners, none of my kids can run except for Ron Satterthwaite. We have to play a slow down game on offense. “We go to four corners a jot, that’s part of the offense. We like to take the momentum away from the other team with the four corners and we feel its our bread and butter.” With not a senior on the whole team and the leading scorer averaging only 16 points a game, Balanis feels the Indians must win the close ones they lost last year to have a shot at the title “It all depends if we can win the ciose ones like we did last year. It will depend on how the close ones go and we have to learn to win on the road, which killed us last year, but | think that was a sign of youth that we could not win on the road.’ PREDICTIONS FOR THIS YEAR: 1.

Louis Crosby- How good is he. ? 22 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL.7, NO. 19/13 NOVEMBER 1975 Pirates will close season at home against VMI East Carolina football fans will have to wait a week before they get to see the ECU football team in action following its 61-10 win over Virginia last weekend The reason being that the ECU team gets a well-deserved week off between now and its final game against VMI on November 22. And despite the fact, ECU will be closing its season at home, most students won't be around to see the Pirates finish anyway, since exams end the day before But for those who saw the Pirates in action up in Charlottesville Saturday they can understand coach Pat Dye's thinking that his team may be the best team in the state right now “Right now, it is my thinking that we may have the best team in the state,” said Dye. “! know | shouldn't be saying that since both State and Appalachian beat us, but we're playing better now than we were then.” After going 2-3 in their first five games, and dropping two of three conference games, the Pirates have rebounded by winning five in a row and, despite the fact they can’t win the conference title or have little chance for a bow! bid, are probably the hottest team in the state right now In the last five games, ECU has outscored its opposition, 165-51, while scoring an average of 30 points a game and rushing for over 350 yards each game The culmination of the team’s switch back to the standard wishbone was reached in Saturday’s contest, when ECU rolled up 633 yards on the ground and a total of 690 yards overail The Pirates, with Saturday’s awesome display, are now averaging over 280 yards a game along the ground and 374 yards a game in total offense Where the offense had been sluggish for the most part in ECU's first five games, Dye says it is the defense which has finally caught up to the offense. “Now we are playing defense the way we should have been ail year, although at times Saturday we weren't going to the ball or moving like we should have been “We gave up a lot of yardage to Virginia's good offense, but the defense also came up with a lot of big plays and did what was needed to keep them out of the end zone.” ECU's offense has been based around the run most of the season, running off 56 piayS a game, and the backs most responsible for the Pirate running success have been Mike Weaver, Kenny Strayhorn, Willie Hawkins and Ray Jones. In the last four games the Pirates have averaged 450 yards a game along the ground. Strayhorn has 596 yards so far this season for a 6.3 average, Hawkins has 506 for a 5.6 average, and Weaver has picked up only 298 yards, but is averaging five yards a carry. Jones’ blocking, and that of Tom Daub Saturday, has been a major aid to the revamped wishbone attack the Pirates have used the last four games. A new star has come upon the horizon, too. A freshman, Eddie Hicks, has played in only the last four games, but has scored on runs of 58 yards (against Carolina) and 87 yards (against Virginia) with his blazing 9.6 speed. In the four games, and one _ earlier appearance against SIU, Hicks has gained 284 yards on 22 carries for a 12.9 average. Coach Dye smiles when he thinks of having Hicks in his backfield for the next three years. ONE OF MANY - Raymond Jones [40] scores one of ECU’s nine touchdowns In Saturday's runaway Pirate victory. All nine of ECU’s scores came along the ground, as the Pirates rolied up 633 rushing yards. [Photo by John Banks) “He's about the best running back I’ve seen in a long time,” observed Dye. “We knew he could run with anyone, but he’s also a good pass receiver and he’s getting to be a good blocker.” The Pirates seem to have reached a peak in their season, but it seems too late for ECU to gain a bowl bid or establish any further gains out of the season other than a win against VMI and an 8-3 record. The only thing really left for them to do is beat VMI Saturday and then sit back and hope the good things which grew at the end of this year will continue next year, for the Pirates lose only eight seniors to graduation. The VMI game will mark the final game for these seniors, among them received any All-Star recognition. I: It is a shame that the VMI game wor‘ be scheduled when school is in progres! because the team deserves the support « fi the fans who more than likely won't there for the finale. “yl interesting to note, too, is that in hig’ two years at ECU, coach Dye has lost tyre only four teams. Richmond, N.C. Statg and Appalachian have all beaters Dye-coached teams twice and VMI is th : fourth team to beat Dye. The Pirates ang: Dye will be out to break that string whey: they square off against VMI on the 22ndyo oY.

The open-door policy simply means that students are welcome to come into the office with their complaints and suggestions. If there is an activity that you would like to have organized then come in and let us know. If enough interest is shown then we would be more than happy to organize that activity as an intramural sport. Basketball Officials Needed On Thursday, December 4 at 4:00 p.m. in Memorial Gym - Room 105 there will be an Officials’ Clinic for all prospective Basketball Officials, men and women. The clinic is required of all men and women students that are interested in officiating Intramural Basketball Games. The pay will be between $2.00 and $3.00 depending on experience and ability. No experience is necessary. This is an excellent opportunity to pick up a few dollars each month and help eliminate those “lack-of-jack-blues’’. Basketball officials are not prohibited from playing on an intramural team. In other words, students may both officiate and play in that particular sport.
