Elliot concluded by noting that ‘‘learning is a_ highly individualized matter. It re mains for all of us to preserve for all Americans.”’ The graduation ceremonies in Minges marked the first time in recent years that the annual exercises were not held in Ficklen Stadium. But, the rainy weather forecast forced ECU officials to move the ceremonies indoors to Minges where seating is limited. ECU Chancellor Leo Jen- kins told members of the graduating class at a Saturday morning practice session that the ceremonies would be held indoors. The final decision on the move was made early Sunday, Jenkins told the commence- ment audience. In 1974 a downpour soaked the graduates and audience and ECU officials were ap- parently taking no chances this time on the weather. In an effort to increase seating space for the audience, the faculty, over 600 strong, was excused from ceremonies. arnegie Report otes medical rplus in N C. tended. The Carnegie report noted that despite a lack of demon- strated need for more schools in the South, six Southern states, including North Caro- lina, are building schools ‘beyond those found neces- sary for geographical reasons by the Carnegie Commis- sion’’. . The state was also one of 16 states the report said could be offering an excessive num- ber of doctorial programs. UNC President William C. Friday took issue with the contention the state system may be offering an excessive number of doctorial programs. “| don’t believe it is true. | think there's been enough self-discipline in what's done in North Carolina,’ Friday contended The report however did have praise for the state’s system of Area Health Educa- tion Centers (AHEC). “North Carolina in parti- cular has pioneered in this development and with sub- stantial state support,’’ the report noted. The state also received favorable reviews of the com- munity college and technical institute system.

LEONARD News Editor The Greenville City Coun- cil recently approved an amendment to the Sunday Biue Law ordinance which would relax the kinds of merchandise that is available to the buying public on Sundays. The blue law amendment will cover three specific areas concerning Sunday purchasing power. A new sub-section was added to the existing ordi- nance which includes sporting goods and toys. A second amendment will deal with all emergency items including emergency repair services and the sale of emergency materials. The third section to the amendment outlined the kind of merchandise that can be sold and purchased on Sun- day. The list includes personal hygiene, medical and thera- peutic necessities, ladies hose, picnic supplies, flashlights and batteries, and household maintenance supplies. The council voted three to three, with Mayor Cox break- ing the tie in favor of the amendment to the ordinance. Councilmen Taft, Howard, and Gray affirmed the amend- ment and the opposition was lead by councilmen Hadden, McGrath and Fuller. The Blue Law was origi- nally imposed to keep the amount of Sunday shopping to a limit and to provide a day of rest for the working citizenry. Mayor Percy Cox is op posed to the abolition of the Blue Law ordinance and hopes that the law will not be repealed. | would not be opposed to anyone buying emergency needs on Sundays but | am opposed to throwing the town wide open. “Many persons have con- tacted me on the biue law and many of the store clerks do not want to work on Sundays. “The Blue Law is a law that is almost unenforceable but | have to stick with my convictions in regards to the ordinance.”’ Acoording to Cox the law will try to be enforced as well as possible. Christman scholarship formed A Russell Malcolm Christ- man Memorial Scholarship Fund has been established at ECU, in honor of the late Russell Christman, an in- structor in the ECU Depart- ment of English, who died as the result of injuries received in an automobile accident Feb. 28. Christman, 29, a Wilkes- Barre, Pa. native, died in Wilson Memorial Hospital, Wilson, N.C., several hours after receiving serious internal injuries in a single-car acci- dent while driving to Raleigh. He received the BA degree in English from Bucknell Uni- versity in 1968, and the MA degree from Temple Univer- sity in 1971. He also spent a year studying Spanish lang- uage and literature at the University of Madrid. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Russell E. Christman of 281 Wayne Ave., Lansdowne, Pa., Christman graduated from Lansdowne-Aldan High School, where he was active in student government and edit- ed the school newspaper. At Bucknell, he was presi- dent of the Class of '68 and a member of Lambda Chi Alpha social fraternity, vice-presi- dent of the Young Republicans Club and a member of the Student Congress. Before joining the ECU faculty in 1972, Christman taught one year at the Gien Mills School in Glen Mills, Pa. The Christman Scholarship will be awarded annually to an English major in the junior class who is enrolied full-time at ECU. Criteria for selection of scholarship recipients will include exceptional overall academic achievement, superior achievement in Eng- lish studies and participation in extracurricular activities. The scholarship fund was begun by Christman’ s friends rons | the ECU English facul- ty and wiil last in perpetuity. Donations to the Christ- man Memorial Scholar ship Fund are tax-deductible. Ail contributions to the fund may be sent to the ECU Alumni Association, ECU Greenville. N.C. checks should be made payabie to the ECU Alumni Association marked ‘‘for the Christman Scholarship Fund.”’ Trustees increase Fail dorm rent By DENNISC. LEONARD News Editor The Executive Board of .Trustees for ECU recently announced that the dorm room rent will be increasing Fall Quarter by $10, This increase will raise the rent from the present $120 to $130 per quarter and from $360 to $390 annually. According to Julian Vain- right, vice-chancellor of busi- ness affairs, the increase is needed to offset a recent wage increase on the state level ine salary increase pass- ed by the state was used for salary increases for janitorial and maintenance personnel and for rising inflation of utilities and supplies,’’ said Vainright. “ECU is still next to the bottom of dorm room rent charges compared with the other universities in the state. “We feel that the dorm increase is necessary to meet the increasing costs of oner ations,’’ concluded Vainr J ht. According to Vainright, the dorm increase will be the only area that fees will be increased and he feels that tuition will not go up. 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 51, NO. 60/9 JUNE 1976 Students receive scholarships Two junior students in the East Carolina University School of Business are this year’s recipients of the annual E.A. Thomas Jr. Accounting Scholarships. Mary Lou King of Beaufort and Robert G. Brinkley of Greenville were recently a warded the Thomas Scholar- ships. Both students have perfect 4.0 academic grade point averages in accounting subjects. The scholarships are @ warded from a fund establish- ed for outstanding ECU ao counting students by E.A Sociology Thomas Jr. of Myrtle Beach, S.C Mary Lou King is a resi- dent of Route 2, Beaufort Robert Brinkley is the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Earl Brinkley of Greenville, a member of Phi Eta Sigma honor society and a member of the ECU baseball team. The Department of Biology at ECU has received a $13,500 rant from the National Science Foundation to support a summer research program for nine ECU undergraduate students The program, according to Dr. Avtar Singh, professor of sociology at ECU, is co author of a new book, Villages Upward Bound, a sociological study of community structure and technological develop- ment in selected villages of India. Dr. Singh served as field conducted in 1964 and in 1972. PLOFESSOF +01: 008890 0 00 a publishes new book Sponsoring research organi- zation was the Social Science Research Center of Missis- sippi State University. Dr. Singh and two other co- authors were on the staff of the MSU center in the late 1960s when basic organization of the book was formulated The work is co-authored by Drs. Singh, Haroid F. Kauf- man and Satadal Dasgupta, and was published by Editions Indian, Calcutta. Dr. Graham J. Vavis, chair- man of the ECU Biology Department, will emphasize the study of river flow and the cyding of marine and animal food substanoes in the Pamlico River estiiary “It should contribute to our understanding of tne serious oxygen depietion whicn oo- casionally occurs in the deeper waters of the Pamlico. And it will show us the extent of the utilization of various foods by micro-organisms and ani- mals,’’ Davis said. The nine student partici- pants include Sara D. Cun- Essentially, a sociological research report, the book deals extensively and in readable, relevant lay terms with a study of village structure and the village in India as a social field. A complete chapter is devoted to class and caste, or the social rank, occupation and level of living. Another deals with the leadership structure and process. The authors said the study iS a case of cooperative, two-way effort between na- tionals and their respective research organizations of the two countries concerned, India and the United States. Two universities in India, Panjab University at Chandigarh and Patiala University at Patiala cooperated in the reserach and made major contributions in the analysis of data on caste and class, they said. Academic rank If a 4.0 is perfect when it comes to academic work at ECU, then Susan Pate and James Lewis can't be far behind. Ms. Pate, of Pikesville, N.C., was recognized as the graduating senior with the highest academic average dur- ing graduation exercises May 30th. Ms. Pate accumulated a 3.965 average for academic work done. Lewis, of Hertford, N.C., was a Close second to Ms. Pate. Lewis tallied a 3.955 mark tor his college academic efforts.

The result of the vote, if positive, could send shock waves through utility companies nationwide as the safety and economy of nuclear reactors becomes a more explosive issue in this election year. (The outcome of the vote was not available to Fountainhead at yesterday’ s deadline.) a Proposition 15, a part of the California primary ballot, would require the state legislature to judge the safety of all nuclear reactors in the state and their radioactive-waste-disposal sys- tems. Approval by two-thirds of the legislature would be necessary for all future and existing nuclear plants. The plebiscite, the first in the nation to challenge the nuclear industry, also would reduce operation of these facilities unless the industry could assure full compensation in case of accident. Under the Price-Anderson Act, passed by Congress in the late 50s and renewed in December 1975, utility companies are liable for damages resulting from a nuclear catastrophe. only up to $560 million, with more tnan $400 million of this tab being picked up by the federal government--essentially a taxpayer subsidized insurance system. A lawsuit now pending in Federal District Court in Charlotte challenges the Price-Anderson Act. The suit charges that it prevents individual citizens from suing the utilities for the full amount of damages incurred from a nuclear disaster. The overall litigation, brought by a citizens group seeks rejection of Duke Power Company’s McGuire nuclear generating facility slated for construction in Mecklenburg County. Duke is currently awaiting approval of an operation permit for the plant by the federal Nuclear Regulatory Agency. According to Judy Kincade, staff attorney for the North Carolina Public Interest Research Group (N.C. PIRG), there are only three major sanctions a North Carolina utility company must secure before beginning construction on a nuclear facility, although several federal, state and local agencies ultimately must give the go-ahead. At tne. state level a company must receive a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity from the N.C. Utilities Commission. A construction permit and an operation permit are also required from the NRC. WINSTON SALEM » aK @ ASHEVILLE * CHARLOTTE 7 = NUCLEAR PLANT LOCATION (PROPOSEL) MWELL, IF IT BLOWS WAOSE SHEETS ARE WHITER. ” In considering applications for permits the NRC maintains a policy of allowing plant construction in areas with 500 persons per square mile or less, according to one official of the agency. A collection of public interest groups petitioned the federal government in May to ban construction of nuclear plants within 40 miles of all areas with population densities of more than 400 persons per square mile. The 23 groups, N.C. PIRG among them, said there are already plants in 15 states that violate or will violate the commission’s guidelines, or would be within the 40-mile radius. Even though odds against a nuclear disaster have been calculated at five billion to one, an unchecked ‘‘meltdown’’ near a heavily populated area would have horrendous results. A $4 million study by MIT Professor Norman Rasmussen detailed the series of events in which all safety systems in a hypothetical pressurized-water reactor at any of the current U.S. sites.

Young voters needed ‘Young people in politics could be the fifth branch of governir nt, behind the free press, if they would vote in large numbers and run_ for Office,’’ a group of young Democrats were told Tuesday. Speaking to the Beaufort County Young Democrats Club, Col. C.R. Blake, assist- ant to the Chancellor at ECU, said that young people bring ‘fresh ideas’ to the forefront ....'good ideas that are given full coverage by the press.”’ But he said the youth do not get their messages across at the polls “North Carolina has over 300,000 young people 18 to 21, yet only one in three will vote,’’ he said. “Some are apathetic and figure their vote wouldn't matter, but there were over 20 local elections in North Caro- lina last year where victory was achieved by less than six votes.”’ The ECU official urged the young Democrats not to fall into the trap of being attracted to a candidate based primarily on personality.

A back- ground by Roger Dean (de- signer of the groups’ album covers) formed an impressive stage backing YES began the set with And You and |,"’ a song from the Close To The Edge album This song featured five parts; Lord of Life Eclipse’, The Preacher and the Teach- resounding cres- with er and a cend ending ‘Apocalypse’, featuring Steve Howe on guitar. From ‘‘And You and 1” the group moved to a cut off their latest studio album en- titled ‘‘Relayer’’. The intro to the song featured both key- boardist Patrick Moraz (form erly of Refugee) and drummer Alan White in ‘‘dueing’’ solo parts. The song further pro- gressed into lightning-fasi runs by bassist extraordinaire Chris Squire, and, as always, the enchanting and ghostly voice of John Anderson. The group ended the set with an impressive Moog Synthesizer piece by Patrick Moraz. The group then performed a sona from the YES album, entitled ‘‘l'Have Seen All Good People’, featuring the vocals of Anderson, followed by an acoustic piece featuring And- erson and Steve Howe on an instrument called a vachalia, which is similar in sound and structure to a mandolin. This soft, moving piece served as a kind of interlude before the group played a nother driving, resounding piece entitled ‘‘Gates of Delirium’’, which also came from the Relayer album, Once again we found Anderson's ghost yet powerful voice offsetting dynamic, driving solos featuring all members of the group, the most impres- sive of which was Steve Howe His clean, fast style definitely set off the song from others in the sheer power it generated. Moraz also proved to many that he is a more than adequate replacement for Rick Wakeman with his mastery of the synthesizer. The most fitting touch to the entire song was a spectacular smoke and laser show heralding the bass solo of Chris Squire. Following the ‘‘fireworks’’, the song preceeded into a soft, mellow acoustic segment fea turing Howe and Squire Squire began the next set with two songs from his recent solo album, entitled Fish Out of Water, featuring himself on bass and lead vocals with backup vocals by John Ander- Unionsummer schedule has something for everybody By BECK Y BRADSHAW SUMMER CONCERTS The Special Entertainment Committee has four concerts scheduled for the summer.

The two songs, ‘‘Hold Out Your Hand’’ and ‘‘ You By My Side’’ stood out not only as tributes to the writing genius of Squire, but it also showed that Anderson is not the only vocalist in the group. The following song was a delightful acoustic piece by Howe (per- haps to the relief of all). Anderson then followed wit, a cut off of his soon to be released solo album. The song featurec-Anderson’s vocals with Howe on steel guitar. This cut was followed by a synthesized drum solo by Alan White, synchronized with a stupendous laser light show moving into excerpts from Patrick Moraz’s solo album The first song, entitled ‘‘Impast’', featured some im- pressive acoustic piano by Moraz, very rnuch reminiscent of Keith Emerson. This was followed by what appeared tc be synthesized voice moving into a kind of Latin piece entitled ‘‘Ca Cha Cha’’. The climax of the set was ‘‘Impres- which moved into a sions’, solo piece by Anderson on harp and Moraz on mellotron, with the interesting visual effect of the fish onstage turning different colors, as planets and stars moved in the background. Howe once again came to the foreground with his im- pressive guitar playing in “The 'Fish’’ from the YES album, followed by a moving vocal rendition of ‘‘Héart of ‘‘chimes'’ entrance into Roundabout’’, the highlight of the evening. (NOTE: the good people at Record Bar for their heip.) As the group left, the Hampton Coliseum shook with roars for an encore, and the group returned with the un- expected, if not pleasant sur- prise of ‘‘Sweet Dreams’’, an oldie from the Time and a Word album.

Those were old- fashioned dreams, which in- evitably became the plot of every grade-B movie about circus life. Ron had hoped to be a comedian, but found the Big Top an easier arena to enter than the nightclub circuit. And Sandy had never given much thought to the circus because until recently, women were not considered for clown roles. If anything, she had hoped to become an actress. Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey Clown College in Venice, Fla. helped them change their career direction and even their own lives, for it was there that they met. After graduating from the unique college, they joined a new breed of clown, most of whom are aspiring comedians who chose the opportunity to work for a steady $175 a week instead of the uncertainty of an occasional booking. Jes patina” watermelon feasts Ron, who is known profes- sionally as Chico, is typical of the new breed. Born in Irvington, N.J., Chico grew up on a steady diet of TV movies featuring Laurel and Hardy, the Marx Brothers and Abbott and Costello. Wanting to follow their footsteps, he en- rolled at Clown College five years ago and is now Clown Captain. “There's not that many places where you can work every day as a slapstick comedian,’’ Chico said. ‘The circus affords you a steady income and the chance to work in front of audienoes of up to 50,000 in some places.”’ Chico, 26, and Sandy, who grew up in Chicago and Los Angeles, were married in 1972 in full make-up and costume at the Los Angeles Forum before a crowd of 3,000. In the center ring, of course. The wedding received ex- tensive publicity on local and national TV and the newly- weds were given two days off for a honeymoon.

They try to maintain as ‘‘normal’’ a home life as possible. After living on the circus train for the first two years, they saved their money and bought a 27-foot trailer which they drive from booking to booking. ‘This way we don't have to live out of a suitcase,’’ Sandy explained. ‘We have a place to come home to after the shows and | cook and wash just like other wives.”’ Is clowning all that they hoped it would be? “It takes dedication and diligence,’ Chico answered “You have to come up with new ideas and routines ail the | Texas Instrument Ti 1200 Texas Instrument TI 1250 Texas Instrument 1500 Texas Instrument 2550 Texas Instrument SR51 Texas Instrument SR1I6 Adapter for Tl 1200 and Ti 1250 Texas Instrument SR52 time. You're doing two shows a day, three on Saturdays and Sundays, and the longest break is six weeks every other year. But two weeks after we're off, we're ready to come back to work again.”’ According to Sandy you also have to be ‘‘on all the time’ during and even after the shows. “We might want to go out for a bagel and coffee and people always expect us to be funny. But, then, being a clown means dealing with people’s emotions. You’ re try- ing to make them happier.”’ Which is why they wel- come their privacy away from work and spend their evenings in the trailer watching TV or having clown-to-clown talks about any problems that come up.
