According to Pingston the Department of Transportation has these community meetings to discuss any transportational problems that the community may have. This meeting in Washington will be the base for appealing the rejected overpass proposal and Pings- ton has written a formal letter to the Department of Trans- portation informing them of the SGA’s intentions. ‘The total cost of the overpass is $178,000, with the state doing the construction work, and the university will take care of the right-of-ways and the landscaping,’ said Pingston. By BRENDA NORRIS Staff Writer Mrs. Ledonia Smith Wright, an ECU professor was found dead by fishermen in the Tar River Saturday, June 19. According to the Raleigh News and Observer, a spokes- man for the state medical examiners office said that cause of death was drowning. An investigation is continu- ing, according to the News and Observer, to determine if Mrs. Wright, 46, died by accident, homicide, or suicide. According to Poiice Chief, Glenn Cannon, there is no evidence to indicate anything other than accidental death at this stage. Dr. Everette E. Jenkins Jr. told the News and Observer that there is no indication of injuries or natural illness that would have caused her to fal! in the river. He said she was Jenkins indicated that he had heiped start several large projects in the last few years at ECU that he wanted to see through to completion, or at least till he retires from the Chancellorship on June 1, 1978. ‘‘We are right in the middie of several large tasks and | want to see them through,’’ Jenkins said last week. ‘There is a lot of work to be done, and | could not do it and run for public office,” Jenkins continued The ECU Chancellor also admitted that the political repercussions on various EC not beaten or stabbed. Mrs. Wright was separated from her husband and lived with her two sons at Stratford Arms Apartments. Mrs. Wright was one of the first black professors at ECU, according to Donald R. Dancy, chairman of the ECU Com- munity Health Department. Mrs. Wright ws an associ- ate professor of Community Health in the School of Allied Health and Social Professions and taught tor two years. According to the News and Observer, Mrs. Wright took a day off June 11 and was last seen alive on June 13. She was reported missing on June 14. According to Dancy, Wright, a native of Rocking- | ham, worked closely with : programs to benefit minority students. Dancy told the News and : Observer, ‘‘She's a great joss ' to the community and parti cularly to ECU.” projects also crossed his mind as he decided not to run for the State’s highest office. “You can’t tell if it would hurt some of our projects or Not.

All of these . organizations expressed con- cern over the safety and welfare of the persons that have tc cross the hazardous intersection The Board of Trustees unanimously endorsed the proposed overpass along with Dr. Leo Jenkins and other ECU administrative officials. The Department of Trans- portation feels the overpass project is a feasible solution to the congestion problem at the intersection, but so far has been unwilling to allocate the funds for the construction of the overpass. The meeting is scheduled for Friday afternoon at 2:00 in the Superior Court Building in Washington. Six schools discuss new athletic conference By MICHAEL TAYLOA Staff Writer RICHMOND--Six which sent representatives toa meeting here last Wednesday to discuss the possibilty of forming a new athletic con ference have decided to meet again--this time in Greensboro in August. And, in the wake of that meeting last week two of the six schoois present at that meeting have announced they will withdraw from the South- ern Conference. Present at the meeting, officials from South Carolina, William and Mary, Richmond, Virginia Military and Southern Mississippi. : Later last week both Wil- Military announced they would withdraw from the SC. » ECU has already announced it year ago. | don’t Know how | would have done if | had entered the race. But | think} would have made a respect- able showing,’’ Jenkins con- tinued. While not running for office this year, Jenkins wouid not dismiss the possibility of anything in the future. “Let's just say right now i am just walking around, look- ing and minding my own business. Right now | have not considered anything for the future,’’ Jenkins explained The ECU Chancellor did admit that a decision on entering the race was not finally made until the last schools along with ECU officials, were liam and Mary and Virginia would withdraw from that same loop next July 1 and Richmond officially }eaves the loop this July 1. ECU officials noted that the meeting last week served as an informational get to- gether for schools who might be able to form some type of athletic union. ECU Chancellor Leo Jen- kins noted he was “‘pleased’’ with the outcome and of the decision ‘o pursue the idea further at a second meeting. During the two hour ses- sion each school presented gave a brief report on their school’s athletic future. Several schools that were invited to attend the meeting, organized by Jenkins, did not attend. Both West Virginia and Virginia Tech were invited but did not attend. And, Florida State, which had been invited did not send a representative. But Jenkins DR. LEO JENKINS See Jenkins, page 3. noted that Florida State had to cancel coming at the last minute and was still interested in any loop possibilities. Jenkins also explained that Virginia Tech had also indi- cated they were still interested in the possibilities the aroup may come up with. And, the University of Miami has also expressed some interest, ac cording to Jenkins. Another event this week which may play a large role on the possibilities of a new league was the decision by South Carolina officials not to seek admission to the Atlantic Coast Conference. USC of- ficials at the meeting last week told representatives of the schools present that their decision on trying to reenter the ACC would have a big effect on South Carolina's interest in any new league forming. enkins opts for ECU growth instead of politics minute. ‘| did not make up my mind on entering the race until very late in May.

The with- drawal would be effective June 30, 1977. Earlier this year, ECU announced plans to leave the 55 year old conference as of July 1, 1977. Richmond will cease membership in July of this year The announcement by the two schools comes in the aftermath of last Wednesday's meeting in Richmond in which seven schools, induding ECU, Richmond, William and Mary and VMI, discussed plans for the formation of a new athletic conference Acoording to spokesmen at both universities, the decision to withdraw had been spurred by the conference's recent admittance of Division 1-A schools Marshall, UT Chattanooga and Western Carolina and the recent de gradation of the conference by the decisions of ECU and Richmond to withdraw The announcements left to come hungry.

It puts us in a bind, but | don’t feel it is a hopeless situation What will now have to be is for the remaining institutions to unite and save what is left of the conference.’ Under the present format all the present conference schools would remain mem- bers, except for Richmond, through the end of June, 1977.

On April 13 the House voted 352 to 35 to castrate the ted’s money link to a prgect at Southern Illinois University, in Carbondale, that would Nave examined the effects of n larijuana on human Sexual response. Current adult pot users would have been paid $10 to $20 a day to participate in the experiment. Stoned trick left unturned The two-year, $121,000 study was to be fulfilled by psychologist Harris Rubin and would have, if highly successful, determined the effects of marijuana 1) on sexual arousal as elicited by erotic films; 2) on the ability of the volunteers 60-75 male subjects--to control arousal; 3) on fantasy-initiated arousal; 4) on testosterone and other hormone levels during aroused and non-aroused conditions. One of the first protest- ations of the project came from SIU coeds who charged discrimination because the experiments would use only male volunteers. Congress felt the project was a complete turn off as the Senate, following the House’s lead, voted on May 13 to interrupt further funding of Rubin's experimentation. Before going limp this spring the project had the approval of the host institution, SIU, the Illinois Department of Mental Health and Law Enforcement: HEW’s Food and Drug Administration, and review committees at the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Ihe NIDA had also received letters Supporting the project, including ones from the “— Mayor of Carbondale. the City Attornev. the Police Chief, and ministers of four churches in the city. Although officially approved in Jaunuary 19/5, the Rubin study did not receive critical y 19/5, when the I!linois press lirst exposed it to the general public. A month later Sen. William Proxmire (D-Wis.) gave it his “Golden Fleece Award,’’ calling it ‘‘one of the most shocking examples of the ‘Federal love machine’ that | have ever seen.’’ When HEW’s bill for funds to operate during the July-October fiscal transition period came up in the House this year, Rep. Robert Michel (H-II1.), Repubiican Whip and ranking minority member of the House Labor-Health, Education and Welfare Appropriations Subcommittee, directed the Congress against Rubin’s project. Michel had attached to HEW’s bill a special provision tlatly stating, ‘‘None of the funds appropriated by this act or previous acts may be used to further fund the study of marijuana and sexual responding at Southern Illinois Univer- sity. The House Appropriations Committee maintained the amendment condemning HEW for awarding monies for a project **which is not only oftensive to the standards of decency held by most Americans, but was also inadequately reviewed as to its scientific merit...’ Acting on the bill three weeks later, the Senate Appropri- ations Committee said only that ‘* The Committee agrees with the House language.’’ As it stands now, Congress’ rejection of Rubin's study lays open the possibility of future research projects being frustrated by minor political dickering. To the end, HEW remained convinced of the study's validity. The project was scrutinized at least 11 times between mid-1974, when it was given a preliminary review by NIDA’s Initial Review Group, and April 1976. Over and above the regular reviews, the drug Institute checked Rubin's research methodology with William Masters, Virginia Johnson and Hobert Kolodny of the Reproductive Biology Hesearch Foundation in St. Lou's, Missouri. One could surmise from Congress’ vote that Our national legislative body is 1) intent on keeping firm the moral tiber of America; 2) truly vommitted to fiscal parisomony in this money- tight election year; 3) reluctant to expend tax- payers hard-earned money tor sex and frivolity for anyone except themselves.

Mr. Leonard is to be thanked for the factual presentation he gave to our plan for improving legal service for ECU stu- dents.

In an effort to stop this reduction, Rep. David Obey (W-W1) introduced the emendment to increase spending for the program by $315 million. He defended the increase by pointing out the fact that the senior class had been added to the eligibility of the program, creating an additional need for funds for about 300,000 more students. The Obey Amendment which is included in the bill, brings the total BOEG sup- plemental to $791 million.

You've spent all of your money and are dreading the thought of getting back into that weekly grind. Want to get your mind off your troubles? Then come by Reade Street, where you'|l see the red, white and biue banner with ‘‘ Sunday in the Park’’ written across it. What is ‘Sunday In the Park’’? It isa series of summer concerts which are sponsored and funded by the Greenville Parks and Recreation Depart- ment. Mr. Stewart Aronson, who is Assistant Profegsor oi: Speech and Drarnia (with the division of Continuing Edu- cation) at ECU, is the pro gram’s director. He caims it to be ‘‘designed for the entire family, and the only cultural and social event of its type in Greenville during the summer which is entirely free to the public.”’ The idea for the series originated three years ago when Aronson and Boyd Lee, head of the Greenville Parks and Recreation Department, were discussing a change in the city’s summer entertain- ment program. At that time, they were sponsoring theater through a summer playhouse. The suggestion of concerts of various types of music which would be free to the public arose and eventually became ‘Sunday In The Park’’. Al- though its first two years were rather experimental, this summer's display of public acceptance has proven to establish the program on a yearly basis The concerts are perform- ed by various local, state, and neighboring state’ s musical groups. This summer, there are eight concerts in the series, the first. which was June 6th. They range from bluegrass to jazz to Marine Band. Along with the variety in music, there is a wide variety of people who attend the performances. As Aronson puts it, they draw ‘‘a broad cross-section of the community. There are people attending from all walks of life.’’ The crowds usually average around 1000, some coming by car or bus from near-by counties, but there are never so many that they all can't be comfortably contained on the expansive grassy lot There are various reasons given for attending the con- certs. One student claims she enjoys them because ‘‘it’s a nice way to end the weekend; Helix featured in special jazz concert on the mall By BECK Y BRADSHAW Staff Writer The Special Entertainment committee will present Helix, an exciting new jazz group, in coneert on the mali Monday, June 28 at 8 p.m The group, on the verge of a national breakthrough, has appeared at colleges, festivals and leading concert halls all over the country.

They can run around in the fresh air while we relax and enjoy the music.’’ Another student simply stated ‘‘it’s a good way to pass the time and enjoy it without having to pay.” The concerts are held at 7:00 every Sunday through July 25th.

My personal goal as an officer of SOULS (Ms. Barnes iS vice-president) and as a concerned student is to achieve more effectiveness through this organization. | feel that this can be done by reaching all majority students. They must be made aware that SOULS exists, secondly, they must be shown that SOULS is effective,’’ Ms. Barnes states. “The law of cause and effect will then present itself. Gaihering as a mass will result in success. As a massive group we must become active in SOULS and through SOULS we must learn other facets in which to become involved. These are SGA and Student Union Committees along with other facets,’’ she said. Ms. Barnes wants to urge the biacks on campus to get involved with SOULS. ‘‘Per- sonally | feel that SOULS will be a success because we have many concerned students, though the number of apathetic students is greater. Blacks should become in- volved because we are a vital part. We are a vital part of ECU, we are a vital part of the _ world, and we must believe in ourselves and in one another to be successful in a white world,’’ she said.
