Progress In Drama Department
The growth of a university becomes evident through var-
ied methods. One of the most, significant for this particular
university becomes obvious when the progress of the Depart-
ment of Drama is considered.
In the space of a few brief years, the ECU dramatists
have expanded the scope of their operation from that ot a
small, teacher-oriented department to tiie vastness presently
enjoyed, which allows the campus group to compete on an
equal basis with some of the very top troupes in the country.
The ECU facility, which originated with two faculty
members and five drama majors, has now reached such pro-
portions that fourteen faculty members are needed to tram
the 80 majors in the department. In addition to the superb
Summer Theatre presently administered by the department,
six productions are presented every year with an experimental
theatre workshop added to the already full schedule.
The Summer Theatre is an important cultural addition to
Eastern North Carolina, bringing a great deal of prestige to
ECU, for the local summer program is the only one of its kind
in the South.
Such winter productions as "Sorrows of Frederick .
which is now in the final stages of preparation for its Febru-
ary 12 opening, dd to this high level of distinction for the
campus dramatists, for this production will not only antecede
the Broadway opening of the play, but will be the only college
presentation in the country. The fact that East Carolina was
allowed to perform the play demonstrates quite graphically
the high esteem the local producer and his performers com-
mand from their colleagues,
The campus performance of �'Frederick" promises to be
what might be best termed a "gala" affair, since Important
personages from all over the state and country are expected
to attend the opening performance, and such noteworthy Nor-
th Carolina authors as Paul Green, Bernice Kelly Harris. Wil-
liam Styron. and East Carolina's own Ovid Pierce have been
invited to the performance.
Amid all this success, the Department of Drama and the
Playhouse still have one problem. Despite the superb reviews
given the local performances by critics from all over the stat.
the ECU students still fail to furnish the all-important support
needed to continue this outstanding growth and progress.
Perhaps, as suggested by one drama expert, the student
body at this university does not have what is termed "a thea-
tre-going habit That such a situation could still exist in this
era of awareness of the arts seems indeed strange. It even
might suggest a paradox, for despite the perennial complaints
of nothing to do and of the limited culture available on this
campus, the students still find reasons to stay away from a
very outstanding theatre.
Whatever the reason that students fail to support the
theatre, one thing is indeed certain. Those who do not allow
themselves at least one opportunity to appreciate the work of
the local group have missed oi I the most rewarding experi-
ences of a college career.
The Playhouse does no1 ask for support on any patriotic
or "school spirit" motive . . . foi no such motive is needed. The
quality of the performances off red -peak for themselves.

Two Choices
To the Editor,
I am faced with a decision be-
tween two choices, bath of which
are unnecessary. As the weekend
of Jan. 31 approaches, I will eith-
er purchase a book from the scho-
ol store (the library obviously has
nothing fresher than 1967, but so-
meone else an rap about that),
01 purchase tickets for a "minor"
service charge for the concerts this
weekend.
The Four Season were great, as
- Neil Diamond. Segovia, and
the other FEW. But who's going
to rush out and buy the latest al-
bum by Little Anthony and the
Imperials, or spend the night wait-
ing to get tickets? The answer is
:i few; the few who call themselves
the entertainment committee. Th-
ey're satisfied, but are we?
suggestion is in order. We
MUST either replace the entertain-
ment committee with individual
who will better serve our interests.
or stimulate those already on the
C 'imiit'ee to serve us better. With
ii many meat groups around us to-
day, like the Doors. Rascals, Mira-
cle. F ur Tops, or Sam and Dave.
why do we have to suffer through
another concert with someone like
Bobby Vinton, the flower child of
the 1950's. After all. with a budge:
�he size of the entertainment com-
mittee's, others besides the alum-
ni should be pleased: the kind of
groups that, come to ECU wen
alumni favorites.
T � s get together and change it!

Very Efficient
1 the Editor:
The self-study program recom-
mended by Dr. Leo W. Jenkins ap-
pears to be a most efficient inno-
vation in education. It is very ben-
eficial for college athletes, editors.
SGA officers, musicians, etc to be
excused from class for these extra-
curricular activities. How else cou-
ld they compete on an equal basis
with other students, and still be en-
couraged to participate in these
activities?
Also, under this system, atuderts
will be able to choose a field ol
study which appeals to them most
- rather than be consigned to cr-
ip" courses, or other subjects which
are of little interest to them. May-
be this would also reduce cheating.

else to some degree,

Very Rare Indeed
To the Editor:
It Is very rare indeed to find an
editorial containing not one Justi-
fied statement in Its entire content.
But In a recent letter to the editor,
written by the Editorial Editor,
James Hord entitled "Since When
this is uist what we find. This edi-
torial does much to bring out the
point of truth that it seemingly
tries so hard to make false. Mr.
Hord was totally misinformed of
the facts about the use and origina-
tion of the clinched fist, yet he at-
tempted to editorialize and i
sway opinion to his point of view
icing his own ideas and interpre-
tations as if they were the laws
of the land. But apparently there
are other who also ask "since
when" to some of my statement
concerning the clinched fist, so
answers are in order.
The clinched fisl has long been
a symbol of determination for equ-
; v justice, and a realization of
the American way for the Black
� nan. Starting with the earliest Mis-
s ippi and Alabama integration
movements, the clinched fist was
a visible call for persistence. Why
do not white people raise "a clinch-
ed fist enclosed in a White glove?"
White people do not experience rac-
ial prejudice and discrimination to
the extent that they are placed on
the bottom of the economic and
� ocial scale. Are vou. Mr. Hord.
�king why does not the white man
h tve to assert his renewed determ-
ination u come up out of the bot-
tom layer ol ociety, to strive I i
become a first class citizen, to scale
the wall of racial prejudices Simp-
ly because he is not on the bottom
layer of society, or because he is
Campus Viewpoint
No other academic requirement
seems to plague ECU students more
than the completion of the foreign
language requirement.
Many students have expressed
dissatisfaction with this require-
ment. It has resulted in a the loss
of many quality points, b) chang-
es of major (to fields that don't re-
quire foreign languages � i.e ed-
ucation), o postponement of grad-
uation, and, in some cases, d) flu-
nking out of school.
According to the 1968-69 catalog-
ue, candidates for the Bachelor of
.Arts degree must complete "one
five hour literature or civilization
course beyond the intermediate lev-
el (i.e Spanish, French or Ger-
man 4). In fact, nearly all degrees,
including business administration,
require some foreign language pro-
ficiency.
in my opinion, many students flu-
nk foreign language courses be-
cause they dislike the subject mat
ter, or are bored with the dullness
of learning by rote. After all, h
many studenis really enjoy learning
French irregular verbs, Spanish pro-
nouns, or German idioms.
Role Of Foreign Language
Another question to be asked is
how vital a role does the learning
of a language play in the education-
al process? Does the knowledge of
French, for example, mean that a
person will earn G dollars a year
more than a person who doesn't
know a foreign language? In other
words, what is the practical utility
of learning a foreign language? The
answer to the above questions se-
ems to indicate that knowledge of
a foreign language means very lit-
tle to most people.

have to have laws to say that one

is indicative of a sick society. In-
dividual, personal attitudes and

tic society are the onlv remedies
We can change our attitudes throu-

By BOB BOWMAN
Andres Segovia was once herald-
ed by the Washington Post and
Times Herald as the deity of the
classical guitar. This opinion is
indeed shared by people through-
out the entire world and North
Carolinians are no exception.
Monday night in Wright Auditor-
ium was no exception either. Se-
govia gave students of ECU and
surrounding residents a once-in-a-
lifetime experience.
There was the inevitable confus-
ion before getting under way. Set-
ting up extra seats to accommodate
the capacity crowd was perhaps
unfair to the people who arrived
early In order to set a front row
seat.
And of course the concert was
lLte in starting because pe.Tple were
still milling around looking for seats
at the predetermined time; the de-
lay of ten minutes was easily tol-
erated.
Non-Students Attend
There was a surprising number
of non-students present from Gre-
enville and surrounding area, all
nervous with anticipation while
waiting for the performance to be-
�4in One dark-haired lady was hea-
rd to remark that she had "driv-
en sixty miles just to hear Segovia
Some minutes before the ap-
pearance of Segovia, a padded sto-
ol and a small footrest ir. the form
of a box wvi - placed in the center
of the stage � nothing more, just
those two items. Truly amazing
how few props are needed for such
a popular performance. The man,
the music, the reputation are Se-
govia, and props or an elaborate
set matter not at all. One begins
to think that perhaps an elaborate
Bel indicates inferior performance.
With no prologue whatsoever,
not even an introduction, Segovia
and his guitar appeared. He just
walked on to a thunderous ovation.
He looked a little like a tall Alfred
Hitchcock in his tuxeudo and white
hair. He seemed pleased with the
reception as he sat down majecti-
cally and waited patiently for com-
plete silence. 'There is a rumor
that Segovia once waited 45 min-
utes on stage before he judged the
audience quiet enough to begin.)
The first notes were soft and
delicate and thus set a precedent
that followed throughout the per-
formance. Many people may have
been surprised at the delicacy of
the music, at the softness. Many
people may have been surprised
at the intricacy. But no one was
surprised at the excellence, for
they had heard the reputation of
Segovia.
Silent Fascination
Segovia played and the people
watched and listened in silent fas-
cination. The guitarist never spoke

� o
your name was:
Chapter, East Carolina University
wish bo congratulate you on your
most noted accomplishment. It is
through the efforts of courageous
men as yourself that our nation
has achieved the high degree of
standards that it possesses today.
In addition, it was brought to
our attention at the 1968 National
Convention that you wore your Al-
pha Phi Omega pin on your Apollo
VIII mission. With this in mind,
we again extend to you our most
sincere congratulations on receiv-
ing the National Distinguished Ser-
vice Award. It is a warm and satis-
fying feeling to know that Alpha
Phi Omega is not only first in Ser-
vice, but first in outer space as
well.
We share with you, the pride,
honor and appreciation that you
must feel, on your most noted ac-
nievements.
Fraternally Yours,

me woi'd during the whole per-
formance, not that word were at
all necessary, and he seemed to be
watching his hands, his guitar, as
if he were interested in -?eing
what they were going to do next.
And he seemed to be enjoying the
music as much as the audience.
After the first selection. Segovia
al back, scratched ins nose, lis-
tei ed to the ovation, stood, took a
bow, sat down again and waited
for silence And .so it went until
intermission. The pre-mtermission
selections were all classical but the
program promised flamenco during
th -econd half
After intermission, Segovia again
appeared and began to play fla-
menco selections with the same del-
icacy, the same softness, the same
intricacy. Any.ne who expected
the flamboyant style normally as-
sociated with flamenco certainly
did not get what .hey expected
from Segovia.
Standing Ovation
When the performance was over,
there was an almost-immediate
standing ovation, durng which the
meat man looked quite pleased
with himself and with Ms music,
ind then he played a short encore.
Another standing ovation and a
final encore. And then it was over.

Born in Newton, Kansas, Mr.
Wiebe received his B.A. at Bethel
College in his hometown in 1954. He
then took his Ph.D. in English at
the University of Michigan at Ann
Arbor and went to the University
of Wisconsin to teach. He now tea-
ches at the University of Cincin-
nati.
Skyblue Is the funny-sad hero
who shares every experience of na-
ture and mankind, but does not
see his place in the scheme of
things. After college and the dis-
covery of literature, he becomes a
teacher and rushes headlong into
glorious failure.
All of Skyblue's episodes are seen
from his point of view, which ac-
counts for the fact that everything
is outrageously overstated; that is,
he is always "running off at the
mind His experiences tend to be
extreme and he moves between
those extremes knowing that if his
emotions move to any extreme, he
could be destroyed.
In "Skyblue the Badass Dallas
Wiebe has reversed the usual form
� the story lies underneath, while
the surface is a dazzling world of
of verbal pyroechnics. a world of
allusion and light, symbolism and
cerebration. This is a unique read-
ing experience.
