The tests were given to Gear up any speculation that ECU policemen may have been involved in the theft of a stereo system in Mendenhall, the attempted break-in of a safe in the Student Supply Store, or the four thefts of money from the Dean of Women's office. “4 requested the SBI (State Bureau of Investigation) to investigate the matter,’’ said Joseph Calder, director of campus security. ‘But after three weeks they had taken no action, so to keep this from dragging out | had Mackenzie Security Inc. in Greenville, do the polygraph tests. “} told my policemen that if any were involved they would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law “All were tested except one who resigned before the tests were given to go back to farming. | don't believe he was involved in any way. He had only been here since August and probably didn't know where the safe was in the Student Supply Store or that the Dean of Women kept money in her office “The polygraph operator asked specific questions about each of the crimes and said that none of the regular officers or the one reserve officer had knowledge of the crimes. ‘The person or persons who broke into the Dean of Women's office used a key but the person or persons who broke into the Students Supply Store and whoever stole the stereo from Mendenhall may have had a key or could have hidden in the buiiding. ‘““We have no leads in any of these cases.

Dr. Henry Ferrell, ECU History Department professor, reported on the recent Faculty-Senate Assembly held in Chapel Hill A resolution was passed at the Assembly calling for a 16 percent pay raise for all faculty members in the UNC system A pay raise rally will be heid May 1 and Dr. Michael Bassman moved that the ECU Faculty-Senate accept the assembly resolution and fully support the rally. The resolution carried the Faculty Senate by a unanimous majority Dr. Edgar Hooks, chairman of the Calendar Committee, reported on the projected academic calendars for the following upcoming academic years; 1977- Accident victim remains unconscious 1978, 1978-1979, 1979-1980, 1980-1981 The calendar report by Dr. Hooks brought about serious debate on the floor by several interested professors. Tim Sullivan, president of the SGA, interrupted the normal meeting and asked permission to speak on behalf of the students on the calendar controversy The SGA passed a resolution Monday night opposed to the earlier starting semester date. The semester system aids students because it lets us out earlier and | have appointed a four student committee to look at the calendar,’’ said Sullivan. According to Sullivan students holding agricultural and beach retreat jobs would find it difficult to come back to school at the proposed early dates.

Carter’s win crucial By DEBBIE JACKSON Staff Writer Jimmy Carter's win in the Pennsylvania primary Tuesday could be a big step toward winning the Democratic nomi- nation, according to Dr. Thomas F. Eamon of the ECU political science department “In view of Carter's win, he moves from position of front-runner to that of a consciousness, but he said her left eye is now partially opening Miss Cox is a 20 year-old business education major. She graduated from Raleigh's Enloe High School in 1974 definite favorite,’ said Eamon, assistant professor “Morris Udall was mortaliy wounded and any chances Henry Jackson might have had were eliminated,’’ Earnon added Eamon commented that Carter's strength makes Hubert Humphrey's chances for the Democratic nomination more difficult “Carter would be a stronger nomi- nee against President Ford than Humphrey,’’ said Eamon Eamon said that Carter's strength in the primary was due to the weakness of his opponents. According to Eamon, a CBS-New York Times survey found Carter leading his opponents in his positions on four to five of the major issues. In an interview Monday Eamon said one of Carter's strongest points in his platform is the environmental issue Eamon noted Carter's firm opposition to the commercial supersonic transport (SST) as a stand to protect the environ- ment As governor of Georgia, Carter was very forceful in environmental controls at a time when Georgia was not as concerned as some other states,’’ said Eamon Eamon commented tnat Carter has recently taken a more specific stand on the employment issue than he has previously taken Two weeks ago Carter endorsed a modified version of a full-employment bil! in which the government would guarantee See Carter, page 4 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 51, NO. 53/29 APRIL 1976 Ediforials/‘Commentary Bylaws already outdated After almost a year of bickering about new Publications By-laws, the student legislature will more than likely approve a brand new set of by-laws to govern ‘‘certain’’ campus media next Monday. Please note the ‘‘certain’’ mentioned above for the brand new by-laws that were nearly a year in the making are obsolete before they are even approved by the legislature. The new by-laws while offering governing rules and regulations for four student publications conspicuously omit two other student voices -- the Ebony Herald and WECU. The current by-laws, that are by and large well written will be used only to regulate Fountainhead, Buccaneer, Rebel and The Key. Yas best as we can understand the Ebony Herald and WECU are both bonafide forms of campus media, just like the other four publications that are named in the by-laws. Both WECU and the Ebony Herald operate off of student funds just like the other four publications. And all four are ultimately under the control of the SGA and are aimed primarily at serving the student body like the other four publications. Yet, for some reasons, the brand new by-laws, that were so long in the making, do not include these two organizations. WHY? When a legislator asked Speaker of the Legislature Ricky Price why the two were not included in the by-laws at Monday's legislative session, Price responded by pointing out that those two organizations had always operated separately from Publications. That is true. But precedent is no reason to continue anything. It would appear to only make good sense to us that a Publications Board should represent all forms of campus media--not just a certain few. There are both advantages and disadvantages for a publication or radio station to operate independently of any direct control other than that of the SGA. Yet Fountainhead, Rebel, Buccaneer and The Key are required to operate under the Pub Board which in turn operates directly under the SGA. Meanwhile, no one has that much direct control over the Ebony Herald and WECU, which are often forced to fend for themselves when they go to the legislature for money. A strong Pub Board should have direct control over all campus media and should work as their direct overseer and a liaison between those organizations and the SGA. The SGA created the Ebony Herald for some reason last year and now they have placed it under the control of the Office of Minority Affairs. Why the paper can’t go under the same control as the other campus publications is a mystery to us. Then there is the case of WECU which in the past has been forced to come hat in hand to the SGA for funding without the benefit of a controlling regulation board to intercede in its behalf.In the case of WECU, falling under Pub Board would be a definite lus. ? The legislature last Monday voted to postpone final passage of the by-laws until this week. Hopefully a few will at least take a second look at Article X, Sections A through D which list the four publications that will fall under the Pub Board and will ask why the Ebony Herald and WECU don’t fal! into those same categories.

The India proposal would make it punishable by both a fine or jail term for any couple having more than two children. The proposed law would affect some 2,000,000 couples in that India state alone. If it becomes a national law in India there is simply no telling how many couples would be affected . Under the proposed law, couples with three or more children where the husband is under 55 and the wife under 45 would face six months in prison or fines totalling about $57.00 if they refused vasectomies or tubectomies. While this is without a doubt the ultimate in government interference in a citizens life style, the proposal can’t be dismissed without some hard consideration in light of the fact that many under-developing nations can’t control their spiraling populations. The U.S. currently has a birth rate per family of about 2 children, give or take a fraction of a child. This country meanwhile has an economy that can handle this small growth rate. But, there are nations that have averages of five children plus per country, and they lack the considerable resources that the U.S. has to accommodate its smaller growth rate. Mexico isa good example. The Mexican population is currently growing at a tremendous pace with a population doubling rate that the U.S. could not handle. Conventional forms of birth control have been tried in Mexico, and other nations with high birth rates. But, none have even dented the growing problem. We are not advocating that the India law be approved universally--at least not just yet. But, it is an idea that will no doubt have to be given serious consideration in the next few years as the ‘‘have not nations’ continue to have a tremendous problem just coping with their own expanding population.

It was a unique accomplishment, of which North Carolina gays are justifiably proud. However, Fountainhead has refused to print any news of the Conference, citing the reason that ‘‘we have done enough on the ‘gay issue’ this year.’’ Reporter Pat Coyle stated that '‘we were becoming ‘The Gay Newsletter’,’’ and ‘‘There were no gays on campus until we did those articles, then 99 percent of the campus came out.”’ Sure, Pat. While the Fountainhead is to be commended for the excellent series of articles by Larry Slaughter which it ran several months ago, we protest the attitude that there is a gay ‘‘quota’’. Even if this were an acceptabie rationale, has Fountain head devoted 10 percent of its space this year to gay-related issues? (And 10 percent is the most conservative estimate of gays in the overail population - it is usually thought to be higher among a college community.) Incidentally, as this letter was being prepared , we noticed an article in Fountainhead on the Supreme Court decision--looks like the quote had just FLL Qh | PUT IT THIS WAY- ADJUSTED MY CAREER ene enna tt tN ee enough room for just one more negative article We also protest the highly unprofes- sional manner in which staff member Pat Coyle related the news of the refusal. Simple, business-like explanation of ‘editorial discretion’’ was not enough ; Ms Coyle, for some unknown reason seemed to feel compelled to resort to the afore- mentioned insulting, inaccurate, and dis- courteous remarks, hanging up before any answer could be made. We expected better from Fountainhead staff. We are sending this letter because we feel that Fountainhead should be aware that there is not some inert mass of matter that can be labeled ‘‘gay’’ and dismissed perfunctorily, but that gay people (and those who support the fight for gay civil rights) are living, breathing, participating members of the ECU community.

RES 29 APRIL 1976 Fi Greenville has a liberated license bureau By ALICE SIMMONS Staff Writer Greenville’s Driver's License Division office on East Tenth Street extension !ooks average enough on the outside. Most every county seat has such an office. But not every License Division comes equipped with a female testing officer One of the handful of women in this field of work in eastern North Carolina, Ms. Cris Massey administers tests, both written and on-the-road, to license-seekers in Pitt County. Massey claims that she derives satis- faction from her job because she is ‘‘not stuck at a desk all day. ‘‘I’m in and out from the building to the car; so | don’t get restless,’ she said While it is not unusual to find women in this field in the metropolitan areas of Raleigh and Charlotte, Ms.Massey is one of four females working with driver's license testing in the eastern districts of this state. However, she has been spared most of the expected hassles from both the public and her co-workers. In my two years of work at the License Division here in Greenville,”’ says Ms. Massey, ‘| have never gotten any flack from the people who come in for tests. Men have been no problem at all to me during road tests, and employees here in the office are really good to work with.’ Sitting behind the nameplate reading ““P. C. Massey,’’ she is amused at some of the older folks who reply ‘‘Yes, sit’ and “No, sir’ to her questions. it is not unusual to hear them exclaim, ‘‘You'’re a woman!’’ when she stands up. Massey has seen significant changes in state driving tests throughout the years. She believes the available handbooks make the multiple choice tests virtually impossi- ble to fail since study aids are provided. Massey is accustomed to reading questions aloud to persons unabie to read and write, who in turn indicate their chosen answers orally Back in the early sixties, Massey attended ECU as elementary and primary education major. After a stint in the U.S. Army, she worked in Raleigh, then returned to Greenville where she took her present position. As for the future, she would like to eventually open a licensed kindergarten. In Beach season has arrived Summer swimmers should savor safety By KIM JOHNSON Staff Writer Warm weather is finally here! We can hardly wait to get out of classes Fridays and head for the beach So now is the time to catch up on some very important facts about water safety that we may have forgotten since last Spring Where to swim is the first safety point to consider ‘ 4 j ows SHARKS Obviously, a supervised area is always best. No matter how good a swimmer you might be, swimming in a lifeguarded area is the greatest assurance of safety. Unfortunately, most North Carolina beaches are not protected by lifeguards. In such a case, you should avoid swimming alone. But make sure a capable swimmer is near. Your 80-year-old grand- mother won't help much if you're drowning! You should always make a preliminary eer are not tne only hazards on the beach preparation for her plans, she is back at East Carolina attending night school.

Besides, | was once “MEN have been no problem at all, and employees here in the office are really good to work with,’’ says Cris Massey. survey of the area where you'll be swimming before you dive in. Watch for exceptionally strong currents, weedy spots and, certainly before you go plunging head first through a wave, make sure the water is deep enough. Broken necks really aren't much fun. A second factor to consider is when to swim. Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessary to wait two hours after eating before swimming. Nevertheless, a full stomach does interfere with respiration and any form of strenuous activity after a heavy meal is not advisable. Also, swimming during electrical storms or even rain storms accompanied by lightning could cause serious complica- tions...like electroc Cramps are anoiher aspect of water safety that should be noted The main point concerning cramps stressed by most water safety manuals is idea that most swimming ramps is highly simple ways of swimming that can not to panic. The deaths are results of exaggerated.

Accord ing to swimming instructor and coach, Ray Scharf, swimmers too often overexert themsely Don t be foolish and extend yourself beyond your capabilities Scharf said when asked to comment onhighlights of water safety If people would look ahead and think the wuld yet th ves in precarious situa told it would be hard to find somebody who would put up with me!’’ Her lunch break interview ended, P.C.

Through the past years of streaking, bobby socks, and goldfish swallowing, ECU students did not discredit their alma mater by ignoring new fads. Why shouid this year be different? ECU is standing passively L.’ while other institutions vent their spring fever in creatively productive new ways The wet T-shirt banana-eating beauty contest that this reporter observed in a Georgia night club would be an asset to spring events here at ECU The contest consists of daring damsels competing for the grand prize of a beer keg by wearing a wet T-shirt and taking turns eating banana’s creatively and sensuously for the appreciative audience. The banana- eater creating the most bedlam in the audience wins the keg, along with a large following of fans. ECU should not let themselves be out done by *‘ Georgia." We are probably more creative and at least as drunk as they are. To start a new fad we only need student participation, and the inspiration, which the FOUNTAIN- HEAD has never been short on. Listed here are inspiring fad proposals which would add to spring activities. Watermelon Wrestling. This event is saved until the end of parties. It is a good chance to vent frustrations without serious injury. Jock Strap Raids. Screaming foul mouthed females converge on Jones, Ayoock, and Belk demanding jock straps and sexual satisfaction. Greased Bear Wrestling. A starved bear is covered with used motor oil and led into Marty's. The bear is then enraged by not being allowed to leave Goldfish Balancing. This event finds Fraternities and Sororities competing to find the greatest number of goldfish that can be balanced on the protuding parts of their bodies. No hands please. Kerosene Chugging. Fraternities com- pete to see the amount of kerosene that can be downed in an hour. Contestants who get lit’’ will be disqualified. Streaker Stuffing. With this event we discover how many nude bodies will fit into a phone booth, a Volkswagen, a room in Fletcher, and the mens room at the Rathskeller. Tear Gassing and Rock Throwing. This would have been a good idea had it not been exhausted at Halloween. Loitering This pastime is already enjoyed by some Greenville folk, but isn’t it time the campus population caught up with the boys down at the pool hall? Top-popping It has been scientifi- cally proven that with the proper methods, a beverage can pop-top can effectively be used to break windows, dial telephones, ring doorbells, and unzip zippers.

The reasons for this are complex and numer- ous. The polarities of human experience are certainly part of the probiem. It is a question which rears its head out of the implacable exigencies embedded in the modern psyche. The poet must confront the paradoxical image of the beast wrestling with the angel. It must be admitted that history tends to assume a dialectic. Oftentimes, artists become preoccupied with one or the other sides of the paradox. In previous issues of the Rebel, the beast was predominant, and the poetry and prose of those years were, necessarily, nihilistic and antagonistic, were focused on the bizarre and the estranged, the ludicrous and the surreal That sort of artistic perspective, while not Jead, is on the wane, necessarily on the wane; and what the reader is assured he will find in the current issue of the Rebel is what its editor, Mr. Rollins, sees as a search for constancy’’ emerging out of the temporal anxiety of contemporary existence, anew found ‘‘optimism’’ which, nonetheless, must continue to struggle with the same forces of chaos and destruction as its predecessors. A central theme which runs throughout much of the work in this current issue is one of hope: an uneasy alliance which desires to find itself redeemed in the colors and textures of a world and a humanity fallen and continuing to fall into the darkening seas from which the artist strives to draw forth his promise. The ephebes of the past decade were interested in staring into the crumpled and twisted remains that were the all too brutal results of an inflated and unhealthy worship of idealism; the new perspective, if ‘‘nev”’ it may be called, the perspective this rent issue of the Rebel wishes to represe it, is an attempt on the artist’s part to regain his senses, to place a refurbished faith in the power of art’s language to embody the ineffable rather than belittle it; to evoke the mystery rather than deny its validity. Some of the prose bears out this observation. Rollins’ own, ‘‘A College Story’’ presents us with a character “pulled in two directions.’’ Jess is our Bluegiass festival on mal BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL PLANNED if bluegrass music is your bag, then May 1 is a date you don’t want to forget. On this day, the Specia! Concerts Commit- tee of the Student Union is planning 82 hours of non-stop bluegrass. The festival, slated for the University Mall will begin at 2:00 P.M. and end around 10:30 P.M. In case of indement weather, the festival will be held in Memorial Gym. The bands being featured are as American as Mom's apple pie! MISSION MOUNTAIN WOODBAND, PLANK ROAD STRING BAND, BUD BRANTLEY AND THE ONSLOW GRASS, BUCKNER SMITH, BITTER CREEK, THE GREEN GRASS CLOGGERS, and the JUGGER- NAUT JUG BAND. These bands are what contemporary writer: bored with the ostentation of the academes, yet, invaria- bly drawn to them; fascinated with the Marxist ideal of the nobility of the ‘‘simple folk’ in a small southern college town. Its focus is on the shattering of an innocence masked as the sensitively urbane, an innocence that turns out to be, after the encounter with the prostitute and the betrayal by his friend, born of ignorance. It is, in short, a story with the accent on the moral crisis of a young man reminiscent of James Joyce's ‘‘Araby’’ but by no means quite as compressed. Rollins is, primarily, a poet; as such, his prose siyle is dominated by the adjective rather than the verb. This makes for a slowly unfolding narrative which, unless the reader is interested in all the literary name-dropping or the inside expose of the nuances of the intellectual elite, he may wish had been left out altogether. There is, however, a quickened pace once the characters have decided to visit a house of black prostitutes and there are brilliant flashes of descrip- tion that reveal a highly developed poetic style of narrative: With the little bit of light from the lamp down the hail | could make Out a dark form sleeping on the bed. The room was soft with sleep...The room was alive with her breathing...A glove of moonlight lay on her shoulder Other prose works worthy of note are Archie Gastor’s‘‘A Small Man’’ and Susan Bitner's ‘‘Tyger, Tyger’’. Gastor’s piece, like Rollins, deals with the sting of loss and the trial of recovery but with just the right touch of irony. Written in the colloquial diction that congeais the narrative’s style with the setting, Gastor (who, by the way, has appeared in many Rebels in the past and is hardly making his ‘‘debut’’) chronicles Shorty Briley’s attempt to replace his lost sense of worth (symbolized in the death of his dog, Prettygirl, for which he blames himself) by appearing to capture, barehanded, a wild bobcat. The ironic thrust is at the ‘‘man-jacks’’ who do not realize that the cat is caught in one of Shorty’s traps, and a ‘‘small man’’ becomes large in eyes of his fellows largely through trickery and Shorty’s cleverness. Gastor’ s concern is not so much to elevate Shorty as it is to diminish and obliquely criticize the sensation-seeking lust of Shorty’ s peers. bluegrass is all about-stomping your feet, Capping your hands, jumping, scratching, and hollering. Bluegrass is the pure music of love and real America. it grew out of the Anglo-American folk song tradition that the Scottish, Irish, and English settlers brought with them to the hills of Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, and the Carolinas, the songs of their ancestors. The songs were modified by Negro blues and a heavy emphasis from religious and gospel music and in time, Northern popular music and jazz. Workers migrating from the rural South to Northern factories took bluegrass along with them. It remains a music for purists in a time when much of country music is becoming big business and the country itself is vanishing. Bitner’s‘‘ Tyger, Tyger’’ won best prize for fiction and, admittedly, it is a tightly structured dramatic piece. It turns upon an allusion to Blake’ s poem of the same title, but the real power of the story is to be found in its ending. There are, however, lapses into melodrama; the poem and the hasty scribblings of a trapped and frightened girl are the cliched trapping of many of the finest soap operas the networks have to offer. But his story, like the previous two, again emphasizes the theme of loss and search for recovery which obviously made this story a candidate for selection. Much of the poetry revolves around this same theme. There are, broadly speaking, two types of poetic inclination: that which seeks beauty of the word, and that which seeks its power and truth. A sophist or a mystic would argue (hat these attributes are inseparable, but it must be admitted that only rarely, even in the greatest of poets, do we find all three fused into poetic form. The strongest new voice to emerge in this issue is, as the introduction indicates, the work of S. Philip Miles. Miles’ ‘‘ suicide and sylvia plath’’ is rich in the images that lace the peripheries of contemporary hysteria. But in Miles the terror is muted, compressed, an obliqueness that accom- plishes resonance. Miles embodies the tortured consciousness of the modern artist, personified in Plath, which sees the sun “‘trailing like a tear’’ and has dreams which ‘‘once/ hissed to us/ as snakes.”’ His ‘‘ This Poem’ is typical of the kind of subjects endemic to contemporary poetry. This poem speaks of itself as a poem; tries to turn the poetic process into a poem in its own right: my fragile crafts tie easily to the brittie teeth of time... each sound is cauterized in bright bitter screams... and my words sprout sudden sweat ; awkward new disease of the sun. Other than Miles, there are some equally strong and beautiful poems. L.M. Rosenberg’s ‘‘To a Sick Friend’ is a sardonic portrait of human mutability, cd me MISSION MOUNTAIN WOOD BAND flawed perhaps by some heavily pedestrian images. David Bosnick's ‘This night’ is a poem carried almost wholly by a private emotion transiated into an equally private and delicate matrix of images: | will run my tonque to your ear and will whisper, as the wind taps at sand and sand at sea. Theresa Speight’ s ‘‘ The Climax of Compo- sition’’ echoes Miles’ ‘'This Poem’’, though the treatments are obviously different, particularly in tone. Richard Wayne Smith's ‘‘Dianne’’ is also notable for its delicate rendering of the destructive force of love. These are but a few examples of the many works which are characteristic of what the editors feel is a new awareness in our modern poets. Their works are, in each instance, accompanied by the graphics and artwork which complement if not surpass, in some cases, those of last year’s Rebel. The work of Mati Smartt continues to be of interest, and all should take note of the work of Lewis Cherry on page 13 entitied ‘Dream Stylus’. Overall, this year’s Rebel appears less controversial than its predecessors. Little in the issue will offend. For some that will be its virtue; for others, its failure. The polemical pose of any new editor will seek to go one-up on his successors. But it remains to reflect on the validity of the renewed optimism of these modern poets. If the period of nihilism and experimen- talism in literature is spawning a reaction- ary wave of hope and renewed faith in the power of art to evoke, delight, and communicate, we can only wonder at the next reaction. | should hate to see calm turn to lethargy, beauty to sentimental pap. The artist has responsibilities that preclude exercises in ‘' good taste’ and the evasions of the darkness and decay that clings to the underbelly of the undisturbed stone. It may be that the future of art wiil see not just continued actions and reactions, @ scenario of offenses to and defenses of the proper function of art in our society. Perhaps the future will bring relief to the intransigence; perhaps the rough beast may learn to sleep beside the necessary angel; perhaps this will be the Supreme Fiction which we were, ail along, beina prepared for. May 7 With the advent of hootenannies a few years ago, the popularity of the five-string banjo increased. The banjo is the ‘‘back- bone’’ of bluegrass music. Consequently, folk groups and others began using non-electric instruments such as the banjo, fiddle, flat-top guitar, mandolin, and the upright ‘‘doghouse’’ bass. Bluegrass music appeals to people from the whole spectrum-from the right, the left, and the center. The music is not commercial folk, or commercial country, but the pure music of real America, meaning it is not ‘‘hillbilly’’ or ‘country and western,’’ or even the ‘‘Nashville sound.’’ Songs of life, love, and the world, all done to the pulsing beat of a twangy banjo-that’s biuegrass EN ewww ere Sacre 4 Rerel end witt SOLOM., FIELDS, feat in m performir humor, FIELDS, all times presentat the reecre authentic his wit ar glimpse c W.C. appear in lawyer, b and even show con: ing, reco costume gues.

FIELDS, one of the great comic geniuses of all times, comes to life in this unique presentation. Solomon's performance is the reecreation of a masterful humorist in authentic costume and make-up, delivering his wit and wisdom and providing a rare glimpse of Field’s, the man. W.C.

The full show consists of blackouts, special light- ing, recorded tape parts, and several costume changes along with the monoio- gues. The performance is concluded with a question and answer period. ‘Hot Grog ’ "W. C.

Gilman and Knox did find reinforce- ment for their theory that taking holidays away from the baby contributes to marital harmony, and they were surprised to discover that nearly half of the fathers surveyed go out with their wives as often, or more often, than before the baby was born ‘Continued social life was shown to have desirable consequences as a coping mechanism,'’ said the sociologists. They found that frequency of a couple’s outings together is positively associated with expressions of marital happiness: 91 percent of the fathers who said they maintain their pre-baby social life reported their marriages as ‘‘ better than average, ’’ but only 78 percent of those fathers who described their social life as restricted by the baby reported happy marriages. ‘The importance of holidays can be seen in that babies have the capacity to interrupt those patterns of marital inter- action that are essential to keep positive ‘A couple with a new baby might be well advised to schedule, on a frequent ‘Some of the strongest associations of SANTANA — Among these qualiti baby care by the father, outside t Protestant persuasions For Your Bicentennial Engagement and Forever Keepsake ao ee ome ae Oe ome ee come . , e----oOCo-- - ey 4 Wider, the original doublewidth rollin dow to Plan Your Engagement and Wedding rolling easy.

Mitch Pergerson takes the Pirates’ best record in singles matches to Richmond. Pergerson, a fifth flight player, holds a 10-5 slate on the year and has a 33 conference record. ECU coach Neal Peterson has been impressed with Pergerson’s play all year. Mitch has been a great addition to our squad this year,’’ says Peterson. ‘‘I’m looking for him to help us throughout the tournament Tom Durfee was 9-9 for the season and 2-4 in the conference while playing in the first flight “Tom came around for us, especially near the end of the season,’’ said Peterson. | think he will do something for us this week. He has shown he is capable of pulling off an upset.”’ Randy Bailey, Doug Getsinger, Jim Ratliff, and Bob Neff will be the other Pirates competing in the singles competi- tion Bailey is 7-10 on the year, Getsinger is 6-11, Ratliff is 6-12 and Neff is 5-10 in the doubles matches, Getsinger and Neff, Durfee and Bailey, and Ratliff and Mark Callaway saw the most action during the year Getsinger and Neff in the second flight f Durfee and Bailey, first are 5-10 overall flight performers, are 6-10, and Ratliff and Callaway stand at 3-4 at number three doubles. East Carolina performers are among the favorites in many events such as the hurdles, springs, relays, and in the field events. In the 120 yard high hurdles, Marvin Rankins has run 13.9 while Sam Phillips has registered a 14.0. In the 440 intermediate hurdles, Phillips has run a 54.7 while Bill White has a 55.1 to his credit In the sprints, the Pirates should have some of the best in conference with Carter Suggs, Larry Austin, Calvin Alston and Donnie Mack leading the way. Suggs and Alston have registered 9.6s in the 100 meters dash while running the event only mce each during the regular season Austin 1 Mack have been injured ali season but should be factors in the meet 35 weekend The 200 meters has been Alston's event year as the diminutive freshman has set varsity record by running a 21.0 at South Carolina.

East Carolina's relay tear in the 440 (40.9) and mile (314.5) has: been strong all year and will be the favorite in the to finish sixth According to Peterson, Davidson is the best team on paper but will have trouble this weekend. ‘‘In my opinion Appala- chian &. and Furman are going to be the teams to beat,’’ Peterson said. ‘Both of these teams are tough to handie when playing on hard surfaces. Citadel should finish fourth and Richmond looks like the best bet to finish fifth. | think we will fight it out with William and Mary for sixth place.”’ “A sixth place finish for this team would be quite an accornplishment,’’ said Peterson. ‘‘The top five teams are real strong and we are about even with William and Mary as far as talent goes.’ Haverty wins golf tourney ECU's Barbara Haverty fired a 79 to take medalist honors in the Appalachian invitational Tournament and she teamed with Marsha Person to win the team title also. Individually, Person finished third in the tournament with a 90. The two women’s combined team score of 169 was good for the title, beating out Appalachian State, Wake Forest and Winthrop College. The tournament marked the final competition for the Lady golfers this Season conference meet. In the field events, George Jackson leads both the long and triple jumps with leaps of 23-6 1/2 and 49-11 1/4, respectively. Herman Mcintyre, Willie Harvey and Michael Hodge will be pushing Jackson in both events. Ai McCrimmon and Curt Dowdy have both high jumped 6-8 this season and should place in the meet. In the weight events, Tom Watson Lafan Forbes,Mike Harris lead the Pirates. Watson leads the shot put crew with a throw of 52-5 1/2, the discus with a fling of 148-8, and the hammer with a toss of 149-10. Forbes leads the javelin throw with a distance of 204-4. Barring injuries, the Pirates should make this one of the most competitive conference meets in many years. LAST YEAR'S MVP -- Carter Suggs is recovered from a recent injury and will be trying to repeat as MVP in this weekend's SC Track 4nd Field Championships at Davidson. Richmond drops ECU, 3-2, ECU stands 20-7 for year A tenth-inning waik with the bases loaded pushed across the winning run as the University of Richmond dropped ECU, 3-2, in Richmond on Monday. It was ECU’s second loss of the year to the Spiders and dropped its record to 7-6 in the conference. The Pirates’ overall record is 20-7. The loss was the fourth loss of the year for ECU in which the margin of decision was one run. All four losses were to conference opponents. ECU fell behind after the third, when Richmond soored a pair of runs on a home run by Mike Walton, but came back to tie the game in the fifth on a solo home run by third-baseman Bobby Supel. The blast was Supei’s third of the year, as well as his third home run in the last two games. Unfortunately, though, it was not a winning blow The game went into extra innings, even though both teams threatened in the sixth and seventh innings. ECU did manage ten hits, but stranded 11 baserunners--a downfall for the Pirates in many of their losses this year In the tenth ECU could not soore and Richmond quickly loaded the bases with one out on an error by Hick Koryda, a single by Walton, and an intentional pass to Al Bowles. The free pass to Bowles wasn’t a poor move since Bowles had two hits in the game and the walk would set up a force at any base, but on this occasion ECU came out on the short end of the stick. Reliever Joe Heavner, who had been pitching since the : sixth just was not abie to get the bail over the plate and walked Bob Natzinger on four pitches to score the winning run. Four players contributed two hits apiece for ECU. They were Supel, Steve Bryant, Joe Roenker and Koryda. Un- fortunately, too few of the hits led to runs as Spider ace Dave Brooks ran his record to 5-0 with the complete game. For the season, Richmond's record went to 20-12 and they finished the conference with a 9-5 tally. At the same time, the loss eliminated ECU from any faint hopes it may have had for a first or second-place finish. ECU's next game is tonight in Wilson against Atlantic Christian.

The signings brought to three the number of players ECU has signed this year, plus one new player who wiil be eligible to play after transferring from another school this year. The two players signed by ECU were Jim Ramsey, a guard from Cary, N.C., and Herb Krusen, a swing forward from Silver Spring, Maryland. Both of these players are looked at by the ECU ooaching staff as first-rate recruits and players that ECU is indeed fortunate to get. Ramsey was named Metro Player-of-the-Year in the Raleigh area this past season and Krusen is considered one of the top five players in the state of Maryland. Ramsey drew considerable attention in the Holiday Festival tournament in Raleigh when he broke the single game tournament scoring record with a 39 point performance. The record had been held by Phil Ford, a pretty good basketbali player in his own right. Krusen’s major attribute, in addition to scoring and strong rebounding, is his touch from the free-throw line. At Northwood High School in Silver Spring, Krusen set a school record by shooting 96 percent from the free throw line and was named to the second-team All-Metro squad for the Washington, D.C. area. At least on paper it appears the ECU basketball program has signed a pair of high-class top-notch recruits which can really help the team in the future. BUT THE BIGONES GOT AWAY These signings may have given coach Dave Patton some relief for the loss of ECU's two most sought after recruits, Albert Spencer of Washington, N.C. and John Virgil of Elm City. The ECU recruiting team lost on both of these players, as Spencer went to Oral Roberts University and Virgil signed Monday morning with North Carolina. So it seems that ECU may have let two big fishes get away, but got basically the same type ball players, a forward and a guard, in Ramsey and Krusen. One must not forget the other two newcomers that Patton has stored away, either. Both Don Whitaker, a guard transfer from Louisburg, and Greg Corneliue, a 6-10 transfer who sat out this past season, are well-groomed players that could help the ECU program. Like the two most recent recruits, they come from winning programs. THERE ARE SOME SK ELETONSIN THE CLOSET THOUGH Some new blood may be what the ECU team needs after a disappointing 11-15 season last year. And perhaps the turnaround does not end with merely the new recruits. It seems to go deeper than that. Since last season ended, there have been many moves and ;oocurrenoes which seem to point towards a new look for the Pirate basketball team in 1976-77. First of all, ECU guard Buzzy Braman quit school and werit home to Silver Spring, Md. where he will enter the University of Maryland next fall. Apparently Braman, who would have been a senior next year, saw that he was being phased out of the program by the abundance of young guard talent beingbrought in by Patton, most recently in the form of Louis Crosby and Billy Dineen. It must be noted that Braman quit school before any of the recent signings had been announced. | Next an old face returned to the ECU scene. That would be Kenny Edmonds, another guard. Edmonds played in most of the games for ECU during the 1974-75 season, when the Pirates posted a 19-9 record, but had some trouble with his grades last year and sat out the first two quarters of the academic year before returning to school this quarter. Edmonds has been playing in pick-up games this spring and, if he has another year of eligibility remaining, his return to the ECU team would be beneficial, especially in the leadership he could give to Crosby, Dineen and the two recent guard recruits. The final oocurrencesinoe last season's finale is douded by a shroud of mystery, but could most certainly be the most crucial change of all. Betore Easter break, Patton silently dismissed three of last year’s players from the team, apparently in an attempt to clean up some of the team’s attitude problems. This writer must hedge a little here. Even though he knows the names of the individuals, this writer can see no necessity in naming the three players, except to say that two of the players were probable starters on next year’s squad. At the same time we are not going to either condemn or condone the actions of coach Patton except to say we have confidence in him that he did what he felt best for the program and that he did it only after careful consideration SO WHAT DOESALL THISLEAVE FOR NEXT YEAR What lies in the future of ECU basketball then? First of all, with three of last year’s top eight players no longer with the team and two others, Ear! Garner and Al Edwards, graduating it would seem there will definitely be an abundance of new, and young, talent fon next year S squad. With four new recruits, Edmonds’ return, and the promising futures of Dineen and Crosby, it seems there is a nucleus of youth to build with. Add to this the few players who are lett after the recent dismissals and maybe there will be a ‘‘new look’’ and better results Ihe future can only tell what will happen and like this year Surprised many persons, Sc might next year Surprise many I his writer regrets he won t be here to see the outoome next year, but he is sure it will be interesting to watch Rob Weiton has been selected as FOUNTAINHEAD’ s Athlete-of-the-Year in Golf. With the major part of the golf schedule over with--and only one tournament late in May remaining-‘Welton’s second-place finish in the Southern Conference tourna- ment ranks as the top accomplishment by the Pirate golfer this year. in addition, Welton finished with the second best stroke average on the ECU team behind Steve Ridge. Weiton’s stroke average was 76.1 while Ridge averaged 75.5 strokes per round. Welton, however, proved to be more consistent for the Pirates over the final three tournaments, after shooting a disappointing 233 total in the Pinehurst Invitational to open the season. Welton’s top performance carne in the ecent conference championship held in lorence, S.C. Playing the tough ub of South Carolina course, the senior golfer shot 75-71-78 to finish in second with 224 total, three strokes behind the edalist. In addition, Welton placed three sirokes ahead of his nearest teammate, g ‘> ROB WELTON Keith Hiller, and four strokes ahead of f Ridge. As the only senior member on the ECU team this year, Welton’ s leadership proved valuable and his improvement and hard work were rewarded by his second-place finish in the conference tournament. e e 7 e e 6 e ® e e * e ° ic e e 2 e . e ° ° e e . e ° e e ° * . . . e e e . e ° ° 2 e e « . e e ° . e e e . . . e e e e . e . . e ° e e e - PCCSCH STEHT OHESHSESHEHETEHOOHESE SOCIO Any person interested in working onthe FOUNTAINHEAD staff this summer should be atthe staff meeting Tuesday , May 4 at at 4:00 521 COTANCHE STREET IN GEORGETOWN SHOPPES Phone 752-6130 PHONE IN ORDERS FOR PICK-UP OPEN— Mon.-Thurs. 10:00 to 1:00 a.n..

The reason being ECU is ranked third in the race for the Southern Conference Commissioner's Cup, which is symbolic of the conference's overall athietic champ- ions. The Pirates, who are currently ranked behind William and Mary and Appalachian State, have won the Cup two years in a row, but could be hard-pressed to pull it Out this year. Including the results of last week's conference golf tournament; William and Mary is first with 52 points, Appalachian State is second with 51 points and East Carolina is third with 50 points. Following Supel on hot streak Few players experience the kind of hitting tear that ECU third-baseman Bobby Supel has put together over the last two games. During the last two games against VM] jand Richmond Supel not only hit for power, but also for average and speed. In the last two games Supel collected ive hits in nine at bats for .556 average, ile at the same time he hit two doubles d three home runs and drove in five uns | Against VMI, Supel was three-for-four | 1d collected a double and a pair of home uns. He also batted across four runs in hat game. He continued his feat at Richmond ith a two-for-four day with a double and a ome run, plus a single run batted in. All that has made up for the slow start heECU sophomore began the season with. Prior to the VMI game, Supel had played in but seven of the 25 ECU games. In those seven games, he had collected ly two hits in 10 at pat. his year Doubtlessly, ECU coach George Williams is glad that the Snow Hill native got a chance to play and, according to assistant coach Monte Little, Supel’s hot bat is something else. ‘| haven't seen a hot streak iike this in a college player in along time,’’ said Little Little admits that the third-baseman still has some things to brush up on, but certainly with the incumbent third-base- man Geoff Beaston graduating at the end of this year, Supel’s recent streak brings high hopes for the future ‘Bobby has a lot of ability that has to be refined,’’ said Little, ‘‘but people will hear a lot from him in the future.”’ Supel’s streak has pushed his average up to .368 for the year and he ranks second on the team in home runs and batting average. In addition, he has the highest slugging percentage on the team (official at bats into total bases) with an incredible .947 rating. /TTING TEAR--Bobby Supel's recent hot streak has raised his batting average to .368 these three schools are Richmond (43 points), VMI (42.5 points), Furman (36.5 points), the Citadel (29 points) and Davidson (18 points) And with only baseball, tennis and track left to count in the standings, time is short for ECU. The task of winning a third straight Commissioner’ s Cup is made harder by the fact that William and Mary is favored to win the track championships and Appala- chian is favored to take the tennis championships. ECU is picked for second in the track championships, but it is unlikely that it will finish any higher than sixth in tennis. However, the ECU baseball team, despite its disappointing conference re cord, may prove to be the savior for the ECU athletic teams. At present, the ECU keystoners are 7-6 in the conference and could finish as high as second. At the same time, both William and Mary and Appalachian State seem headed for second-division finishes. How far down they finish in the second division and how high up ECU finishes is the key to the basebal! points, though, since Furman has virtually clinched the baseball crown With ASU and William and Mary favored to win the tennis and track titles, the key there is for ECU to finish at least one place ahead of Appalachian in track and at least one place ahead of William and Mary in tennis. Both feats are within reach of the Pirate tears. If that should occur, it would give ECU a chance to take the Cup by finishing far enough ahead of the two schools in baseball. It would be an outside chance, but a chance none the less. Therefore, there is a lot more at stake this weekend at Davidson and Richmond than merely a good track and tennis showing. At stake is the possibility of a third straight Commissioner's Cup for ECU. Wrobel leads Intramural golf Mike Wrobel of Scott Dorm fired a one-over par 73 to take the first-round lead in the ECU Intramural Golf champion- ships. Wrobel turned the 6,500 yard Ayden Country Club course in 36-37 to take a two-stroke iead over two other golfers in a total field of 120 golfers. In second behind Wrobel were Bobby Christainsen and Scott McDowell. Both golfers fired rounds of 3837 over the Ayden course. For the day 21 golfers shot 80 or better to keep it tight going into this afternoon's final 18-hole round. Other golfers shooting 80 or better were: at 76--Doug Davis, Ernie Massie, Mike Trouth and SteveWiggins; 77-Donny Family Favorites s Mekery weed flavored BBG Fried Shrimp dinners Country fried chicken Variety ef Seftdrinks Deaton and Hank Wylie; 78—-Keith Wad- dell ; 79--Dorsett Ward and Greg Peckman 80--Sonny Crater, Stewart Cloer, Leiand Parker, Mike Reynolds, Bill Landreth, John Rodman, Harold Rush and Joe Schuyer. Kappa Alpha was the individual team leader after the first round with a team score of 312 for its top four golfers. The 120 golfers was a record turnout for the ECU Intramural golf championships and the large numbers caused several backups. Nonetheless, two-thirds of the starting field remained in contention after the opening day. The day's highest round was 132, but the golfer who turned such a tremendous feat wished not to be mentioned. Fish Reast Beef Gambergers Choeseburgers SPECIAL!
