A week in the life of the University
?

un Friday, March 28, a
notice was distributed to the
official bulletin boards on
campus announcing that
"President Jenk;ns is calling a
convocation of all students and
faculty on Monday, March 31,
at 11:05 a.m. in Ficklen
Stadium"
The notice announced that
eleven o'clock classes would be
cancelled and that admission to
the convocation would be
restricted to holders of identity
cards.
The call to the convocation
came two days after a meeting
on the steps of Dr. Jenkin's
home between the President
and a group of black students
pressing demands upon the
Administration.
After the beginning of the
nine o'clock class Monday
morning, a call was received in
President Jenkins's office
which, according to Jenkins,
threatened that "in view of the
fact you have not met all of the
demands" a bomb would go off
in Rawl classroom building. All
students were evacuated from
the building, the building was
searched, no bomb was found,
and classes resumed before the
hour was over.
Convocation
The convocation began
shortly after it was scheduled to
begin. The north stands of
Ficklen Stadium were occupied
by East Carolina University
students and faculty. Students
supporting the demands of the
Society of United Liberal
Students (SOULS) took seats
together near the front of the
Stadium.
Identity cards were checked
at the gate by law enforcement
officers from both campus and
city. There was a heavy
deployment of law officers
around the speaker's stand
where Dr. Jenkins,
Vice-President Holt, and other
University Administration
figures were seated.
Cameras from commercial
and educational television were
deployed for action.
After being introduced by
Student Government
Association .President David
Lloyd, Jenkins delivered a
speech in which he said he
would "describe to you the
manner in which I propose to
deal with the demands which
were presented to this
University on March 3 and . . .
acquaint you with what has
transpired since that date
When Dr. Jenkins said, "The
few individuals on this campus
who have intimated that
buildings might be burned
shoud hear this and hear it
clearly?force will be met with
force, and lawlessness shall be
prosecuted to the full extent of
the law the group of SOJULS
supporters chanted in protest.
There was also vocal protest
from that group when Dr.
Jenkins said, "I would like to
point out that of 67 petitioners,
45 receive financial aid ranging
from $300 to $1,846 per year
As Dr. Jenkins continued his
speech, the group of black
students and several white
supporters walked out. To his
extemporaneous question, "Do
you want to hear the rest of it
most of the remaining students
responded with applause.
Closing his speech, Dr.
Jenkins asked for "restraint and
moderation, for democratic
By CHUCK WHITE
procedures, and for goodwill;
and I think, therefore, that in
closing it is entirely appropriate
that we all stand for a moment
of silent meditation if honor of
Dwight David Eisenhower, a
great and courageous leader,
who exemplified the qualities
we need to display here on our
campus. Would you all stand
and bow you heads and honor
the great American
Protests
From the Stadium the black
student group went to the
campus mall where they
discussed their grievances
among themselves and with
interested bystanders. In the
afternoon, a'group of SOULS
supporters sat successively at
the Administration Building
and on the steps wf Whichard
Building for ten minutes each
time, being asked to leave at
each place by law officers.
Retiring to Wright Fountain,
the group stayed longer and was
not disturbed. ?
Students Arrested
At about 5:30 Tuesday
afternoon, a group of black
students appeared in the food
line of North Cafeteria, refusing
to move as quickly as, in the
opinion of law officers, they
should have moved. Four
students were arrested after at
least some of them had been
given warning to move within a
designated time limit.
The students arrested were
James Whittington of Lenoir,
Donny Draughon of Clinton,
Joe Taylor of Durham, and
Tommy Enoch of Burlington.
Students sympathetic with
the students who had been
arrested soon gathered in the
soda shop of the College Union
and sat at tables; students
differently-minded stood apart
at the soda shop counter. There
was some ill feeling between the
groups.
Released
When the arrested students
were released on bail, they were
welcomed by the group
sympathetic with them in the
Union.
Then Johnny Williams,
President of the Society of
United Liberal Students
(SOULS) spoke to the group
seated in the soda shop. He
urged the group to adopt a
policy of forcing police
arresting any member to arrest
all, saying, "From now on, take
all or none He said he didn't
know what the rest of the
group would do, but "I'm
gonna sleep on the mall
Williams was followed on the
floor by Benn Currence. He
called attention to the students
standing around the soda shop
counter, saying they were
"pigs He said he knew there
were "a lot of racist pigs
running around here One of
the group standing apart from
the sympathizers of the arrested
students replied, "oink
Currence also advised the
members of his group to "do
things legally
Later speakers said the
students going slow in the
cafeteria lines were trying to
"show how slow Dr. Jenkins is
going on the demands by going
slow through the line It was
said that "all of us are just
stepping stones for our man to
become the next Governor
Though the group removed
itself to the mall after leaving
its station in the College Union,
it later abandoned its intention
to stay all night.
Tribute to King
At four o'clock Wednesday
afternoon, tribute was rendered
to the memory of the late
Negro leader, the Reverend
Martin Luther King, Jr. a
recording of his "I Have a
Dream" speech was played.
At 6:30 p.m. the same day, a
meeting on the black students'
demands which had been
scheduled for the Library
Auditorium was held on the
mall because the auditorium,
which accommodates about
150 persons, was too small for
the crowd in attendance.
During the meeting, while
the demands were being
discussed, interruptions from
unsympathetic bystanders
became unbearable to one girl,
who exercisinr what she calls
"the customary feminine
defense slapped one in the
face.
The boy whom she slapped
began to retaliate. At about this
time, Cleveland Bradner, a
philosophy professor in the
University, stepped forward and
asked for quiet. He asked the
hecklers to listen to both sides
of the argument on the black
student demands.
Asking whether the students
wanted this University to
become another Duke or
Carolina, Bradner said the black
student here could cause
trouble as they did at those
schools. He ended with a prayer
to God, "whoever you are,
wherever you are to lead the
members of the University,
since they seem to have lost
their way.

Sample poll may
determine future
ECU transit system
The trial transit system comes to a screeching halt this
Thursday. EC's big, bustling city buses will be laid to rest at
4:30 p.m.
The thousands of students who have used the bus service
will once again put on their walking shoes and prepare for feet
blisters.
A tnree-week experimental project of the SGA Legislature,
the buses h?ve been most successful and pupular. However,
many fail to realize that the ist three weeks have been merely
a trial period.
Happy with its success, the SGA Transit Committee wants
the buses to keep rolling until the end of the quarter.
Since the SGA has allotted all its funds for this quarter,
financing the transit system until the end of May is impossible.
Three weeks of the system cost the SGA approximately
$4,800.
The only way for the transit system to continue is for
3 750 students to agree to pay $2 for bus service for the rest
of the quarter, or eight cents a day, to keep the buses. If one
third of the students agree to pay for the bus service, only
those students who have paid can ride. Permit cards will be
issued.
If you would like to see the transit system continued
through May 23, please fill out the form and drop it in the
Transit Box in the UU Lobby any day this week.

Another distinction has been
the selection of the ECU unit as
area headquarters for the
northeastern section, composed
of schools in North Carolina
and Virginia.

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Seven
delegates and two press
delegates returned from New
York Sunday after having
represented the United States in
the General Assembly of the
42nd annual National Model
United Nations Conference.
The ECU delegation was
given the h,ghly revered
priviledge of representing the
United States after having been
selected a "best delegation" last
year at the national conference.
Representing the university
at the NMUN were Delegation
Chairman Reid Overcash,
Delegates Dan Bland, Bob
Adams, John Dixon, Jim
McCullough, Cherry Stokes,
and Bob Thonen. "The East
Carolinian" was represented at
the conference by Editor Chip
Callaway and Business Manager
Don Benson.
The Conference, sponsored
for the first time this year by
the National Collegiate
Conference Association Inc
was held Wednesday-Sunday at
the Statler Hilton Hotel in
Manhatten.
Delegates to the conference
are supposed to vote the way
they feel that their respective
legitimate delegations in the UN
would vote. Many of the
delegations were given a
briefing by the ambassador
representing their country in
the UN.
Wednesday's most exiting
happening came when the
Czechoslovakian delegation to
the General Assembly disrupted
their meeting by walking out as
a protest against "socialist
imperialism, censorship of press
and speech and the repression
of civil liberties" which this
week have been imposed on the
Czechoslovakian people under
the direction of the Soviet
Union.
Delegations iiom Albania,
Ugoslavia, Rumania and Cuba
Dean While
honored here
Miss Ruth White, Dean of
Women, was honored Sunday
afternoon with a reception
given by the East Carolina
Union Committee.
Guests acknowledging Dean
White's retirement included the
administration, departmental
chairmen, campus
organizational presidents, and
dormitory presidents.
Miss White has given active
support to the Union as a
member of the Advisory Board
since 1954.
In the receiving line with
Miss White were Miss Carolyn
Fulghum, assistant Dean of
Women; Dan Snead, president
of the Union; and Connally
Branch, Union social committee
chairman.
A pink and white flower
arrangement decorated the
refreshment table.
A jazz trio provided
entertainment throughout the
reception, and guests were
invited to enjoy the Delta Phi
Delta Spring Art Show on
display in the Union.

(Editor-in-Chief)
also left the block meeting in
support of the Czechoslovakian
protest.
On Thursday, Senator
Charles Goodell (R-NY) spoke
to the delegates, making
remarks on the Anti-Ballistic
Missile issue, the situation is
West Africa and the status of
the United Nations as a world
forum. His visit was brief and
hectic because of his schedule.
On the ABM issue, Goodell
emphasized the monetary
demands of military programs.
As an example, he cited the
recently phased-out XB70
program.
Noting that "the military is
not infallible Goodell stated
that there must be a dialogue in
decisions about military
expenditures. He noted the
uncertain ramifications of the
ABM program on issues such as
disarmament talks with the
Soviet Union. Considering the
argument that the military
knows best in military matters,
Goodell insisted that the Senate
can and will know about ABM.
Goodell then turned to a
description of his recent trip to
West Africa. His remarks largely
paralleled and expanded upon
his article in the current edition
of "Saturday Review He
emphasized the apathy and
ignorance among Americans,
including the State Department,
about the Nigeria-Biafra civil
war.
He had spent five days in
Biafra. The airport was being
bombed upon his arrival and it
was regularly bombed each day
during his stay.
He said that Nigeria was
obviously trying to seal off
Biafra in every way, noting that
regular bombing targets
included markets, feeding
stations, and even isolated
hospitals.
He noted the atrocities of
such a war, citing statistics such
as the one million plus death
toll and the one hundred to one
ratio of civilians to military
casualties.
He said that he feels that the
situation will be worse before it
is better, and the current
protein deficit will surely be
compounded by a calorie
deficit unless drastic relief
measures begin immediately.
About the role the UN could
play, Goodell stated first that
the UN should be a forum for
all nations that in fact govern
territories of the world, i.e
that there sou Id be moral
criteria for membership; and
second, that the relief issue of
the Biafran situation might well
be dealt with successfully by
the UN. He added that some of
the UN's most noteworthy
achievements in the past have
been in humanitarian roles.
Good ell's insistence was
that, both for the U.S. and the
UN, the highest priority should
be to alleviate suffering.
After the Goodell speech,
the delegates who were
sponsoring bills tried to rhuster
support within other
delegations for the expected
floor fight to take place on
Friday.
Political Games were played
early Friday morning by
delegates from the varied
makeshift countries. Decisions
made during these sessions by
ten fictitious nations under
simulated circumstances
prophisied a full-fledged nuclear
war.
In these games, the ten
fictitious nations rapidly made
and broke alliances. Seven of
the ten countries organized a
nuclear force committment
against the most powerful
nation, Alpha.
Due to the ineffectiveness of
the makeshift International
Peace Organization, a seven
nation force may declare war.
The MNUN staff member
holding the games said after this
decision was made in the game
that he was most happy that
this was only a simulation.
Saturday was a busy day for
the delegates. Early that day H.
Roeslan Abdulgani, Indonesia's
Ambassador to the United
Nations met with NMUN
delegates telling them that he
was "certain that past
resolutions in the NMUN had
been carefully considered" by
member nations.
He strongly urged the
delegates to send copies of their
resolutions to all UN missions.
At a reception following his
speech, Abdulgani saidM think
that the NMUN is greatly
educational and that the UN
can only benefit from this
program. It is the kind of
activity which aids the
understanding of the problems
and achievements of the United
Nations
Charles W. Yost, U.S.
Ambassador to the UN spoke to
NMUN delegates Saturday
afternoon on the specific
weaknesses and strengths of the
UN today.
In his speech, Yost noted
that the UN is far from being
all-powerful, having to rely on
the compliance of the parties
involved for effecting UN
resolutions. The lack of a
standing army and the problem
of assembling peacekeeping
forces is compounded by the
constant lack of funds to
maintain UN activities.
A decreasing lack of funds
for developing nations is
hindering the UN work in this
field, Yost said. Although he
expressed optimism for the
future, he noted that countries
have fallen far below the 1 per
cent of their GNP which is
supposed to be given to the UN
for development purposes. The
highlight of Yost's presence
before the delegates was the
question-and-answer period.
This was perhaps best
exemplified by his reply to the
U.S. non-recognition of the
People' Republic of China.
Yost here noted that Red
China's withdrawal of her
ambassadors from all but one
country since the "cultural
revolution" and her apparent
desire to continue a "hardline
rigid attitude to the rest of the
world.

The earth was closely packed
around the grave. Carefully, he
loosened the dirt around the
corpse brushing it away with a
camel's hair brush. Only an
exposed shoulder socket
marked the grave.
Suddenly a hard packed
brown surface appeared
beneath the black soil.
Cautiously, he continued
uncovering black soil until the
upper torso appeared. The
lying of the corpse's skin
had caused the soil directly
adjacent to it to conglomerate
and take on a brown color.
The grave was approximately
900 years old. The corpse was
Anglo-Saxon. The
excavator Martin Biddle,
Heinnch Schhemann? No, the
"digger" was Eddie Stroud, an
ECU student who spent ten
weeks last summer working
under professional
archaeologists at various
Anglo Saxon and Medieval sites
in and around London,
Enqland.
In his position as a digger,
Stroud had the tedious job of
loosening layer after layer from
the grave sites and brushing
them away with a camel's hair
brush, carefully uncovering the
artifacts and skeletons in the
grave so they might be
examined and recorded in an
effort to reconstruct a past era
about which little is known.
Sometimes the confusion
peculiar to history had
combined the remains of several
centuries in a single site.
"There were often three
skeletons in each grave Stroud
commented. "We dug up almost
150 Anglo Saxon graves. The
graves were packed closely
together (and the skeletons)
were always found lying in an
East West position with the
head facing West.
"This signified a Christian
burial. It was interesting that in
every grave thee was found a
large, highly decorated cross
Christian graves differed
from pagan graves in that pagan
graves were "packed with
charcoal" and lacked an ornate
cross.
Identifying the graves and
dating the occupants were
constant problems for the
diggers. Often, Stroud said, "If
we found a coin or a piece of
pottery, it could date a
particular layer
In addition to his job as a
digger, Stroud served as a
planner. "It was my duty to
draw a map of every layer and
record everything that was dug
(by layer)" for the purpose of a
scientific reconstruction of the
area of the "dig" - the
excavation.
The excavation which was
located in Winchester, a city
just outside of London,
consisted of tour sites:
Cathedral Green, Brook Street,
Palace, and Castle
Woolsey
Yard.
"Brook Street was primarily
concerned with the digging of
medieval houses of the
fourteenth century Stroud
commented. "Castle Yard also
involved the excavation of
medieval houses, as well as
Anglo Saxon houses
At Castle Yard, the-
archaeologists uncovered a
storehouse used by Henry VIII.
Woolsey Palace served as the
residence of the Bishops of
Winchester until the sixteenth
century.
Cathedral Green is located
close to Winchester Cathedral.
It was here that Eddie Stroud
spent most of his time last
summer.
The "site" was divided into
four "trenches separate sites
of excavation. Two of the
trenches were exploring the
ruins of the seventh century site
of Old Minister Cathedral.
There were no walls of this
cathedral remaining, only a
chalk foundation. The third
trench was primarily concerned
with excavating Anglo-Saxon
grave sites. The fourth trench
was involved in the uncovering
of a first century Roman
forum.
It was on the edge of this
excavation that Stroud
discovered the Anglo Saxon
grave described earlier in the
story.
The diggers were primarily
concerned with the excavation
of the Roman forum which
These grave diggers never let the dead rest in peace. (Right) A northern view of the late
Roman Forum (brick tessalation) and the early Roman Forum (chalk floor).
Photos by Stroud
covered over 1000 square feet
of ground.
Stroud spent mst of the
summer excavating ie room of
the forum. In this room, he
found twenty Roman coins
dating from the emporership
Flavius or Carosius. "Due to the
number of coins uncovered in
the room (a total of 48 were
found), I believe the room to
have been used by a Roman
tax collector He quickly
added that his statement was
only a theory.
Stroud stated that he does
not know whether he will be
able to return this summer, but
"I will go back in the summer

An intellectual approach
Campus radicals

STANFORD, CALIF. (I.P.)
- The American college student
is "inexperienced, idealistic
sheltered from the hardships of
economic deprivation and often
burdened with personal or
familial problems relating to
Freud if not Marx says
Milorad Drachkovitch, senior
staff member at Stanford
University's Hoover Institution.
Long a student of anarchy
and totalitarianism,
Drachkovitch noted that
relatively few young radicals
imbibe deeply and act upon the
words of intellectual
hatemongers.
The new left
The New Left would not
have become what it is without
a strong pervasive "casual link
between the words of armchair
intellectuals and the acts of
campus radicals he says.
In the writings of Herbert
Marcuse, Jean Paul Sartre,
Norman 0. Brown, Norman
Mailer, the late C. Wright Mills
and Susan Sontag, among
others, "every shortcoming of
Wester liberal civilization is
catalogued and denounced,
often brilliantly Drachkovitch
explains.
"If the democratic center"
in the U.S. "should fail to
prevent anarchy, the emerging
victor will the be the hard Right
and not the hard Left he
warned. In 1968 five major
events accelerated the processes
of rudicalization in the New
Left, according to
Drachkovitch:
The Tet offensive of the Viet
Cong "furnished to the militant
war protestors another proff
that their confidence in Viet
Cong's final success was well
founded" and also had strong
impact on American policy and
public opinion generally.
French radices
The revolt of French radical
students in May: "The
near success of rebellion in a
developed Western capitalist
country, and the Students'
(triggering of) a massive
working class quasi-insurgence
remained as a powerful stimulus
for future planning and
actions"
The occupation ob buildings
at Columbia University, "to be
transformed into a mass
movement, succeeded not only
hi paralyzing that prestigious
university, but also served as a
worthwhile example of what to
try elsewhere
The disturbances at the
Democratic National
Convention in Chicago
"transformed a manifestation
which could have been a
political fiasco for the
organizers into a great
propagandists victoiy for their
cause
San Francisco State
The lingering troubles at San
Francisco State "served, by
their duration, militancy and
application of original forms of
protest and disruption, as a
prototype of an effective,
large-scale effort, immensely
embarrassing to both academic
and political 'establishments "
The force of these events, he
believes, has contributed to "an
ideological and strategic
reorientation of the New Left,
particularly of its most militant
wing Drachkovitch calls the
main resolution from the
December 1968 meeting of the
Council of Students for a
Democratic Society (SDS)
"ideologically indistinguishable
from the pronouncements of
communist groups" in the U.S.
Free universities
Drachkovitch traced the
relatively recent developments
of a common "arsenal of

political weapons" helping to
give the extreme Left some
coherence and unity:
So-called "Free Universities"
"radicalize the consciousness of
their students"
Annual "Socialist Scholars
Conferences" supply ideological
ammunition for a radical
critique of capitalist society and
"build a net of like-minded
faculty across the nation
Underground press
The "underground press" is
in many instances being
transformed into a
self-conscious agent of
revolution" by such devices as
the widely-supplied Liberation
News Service.
However, he noted in
conclusion, all is not well with
the New Left in 1969. The SDS
and other leading groups are
experiencing ups and downs,
not uniform success. While San
Franciso State and the
University of California at
Berkeley may presently be
"up Harvard, Stanford and
even Columbia are "down"
areas for the militants.
A campus chapter of Pi
Sigma Alpha, national honorary
political science society, will be
installed this spring. East
Carolina is the third institution
in North Carolina to be
recognized as ready for a
chapter by national officials.
According to William F.
Troutman, Jr chairman of the
political science department,
the East Carolina chapter will
be known as Epsilon Lambda,
in alphabetical order of its
creation. The installation date is
as yet indefinite.
Since 1963, said Dr.
Troutman, East Carolina has
worked toward the
establishment of a campus
chapter of Pi Sigma Alpha, but
has not until now been deemed
worthy. Dr. Troutman cited
East Carolina's lingering image
as a "teachers' college" as
influential in the society's
reluctance to evaluate the
department's program and
standards.
At the invitation of Dr.
Jung-Gun Kim. the national
director of Pi Sigma Alpha
visited the campus in 1968. The
director. Dr. Franklin L.
Burdette, who heads the Bureau
of Governmental Research at
the University of Marvlanri
talked with faculty.
administrators, and students in
series of small meetings. The
results of Dr. Burdette's visit
were reported to the national
executive committee.
Dr. Burdette recommended
East Carolina for membership,
and after consideration, East
Carolina was placed in
nomination before all the
chapters in the United States.
Any five chapters could have
prevented the establishment of
a chapter here.
In a letter to Dr. Troutman,
Dr. Burdette welcomed East
Carolina's political science
department into the society and
confirmed plans for the
installation ceremony which
will take place in May.
A relatively new department
at East Carolina, the political
science department includes
thirteen faculty members, ten
holding doctoral degrees. The
faculty members, are: Herbert
R. Carlton, Dr. James C. Dixon,
Dr. John P. East, Dr. John M.
Howell, Hans H. Indorf, Dr.
Jung-Gun Kim, Dr. B.K. Paty
Oral E. Parks, Dr. Young-dahl
Song, Dr. Kathleen Stokes, Dr.
Howard A.I. Sugg, and Dr.
Tinsley Eugene Yarbrough.

Secretary.

Public school enrollment on radical climb
with elementary teachers on steady decline
Public elementary and
secondary schools in the United
States last fall enrolled a million
more students than at the
beginning of the previous
school year.
This record enrollment of
nearly 45 million pupils in the
fall of 1968 was disclosed today
by the U.S. Office of Education
in an advance report of a survey
conducted by its National
Center for Educational
Statistics in cooperation with
State education agencies.
The 15th annual survey
further indicates new peaks in
teacher employment, financial
expenditures, average teacher
salaries, and outlay per pupil
for full-time public schools
throughout the country.
Complete data obtained in
the annual survey, including
figures for 14 large cities, will
appear in "Fall 1968 Statistics
of Public Schools a
forthcoming publication of the
U.S. Office of Education.
Besides data on enrollment, the
survey of elementary and
secondary schools shows:
-Expenditures for public
school this year will reach an
estimated $35.5 billion, up
from $31.5 billion last year. Of
the total, $4.7 billion will be
sr nt for capital outlay and $1
?- 'ion for interest payments on
school debt.
based on average daily
attendance, the estimated
average annual expenditure per
pupil in 1968-69 is $696,
compared with $623 in
196768.
-There are 1,943,000 full
and part-time public school
teachers, an increase of 87,600
or 4.7 percent over a year ago.
-The estimated average
annual salary for classroom
teachers in 1968 69 is $7,900,
compared with $7,320 in
1967-68. For all instructional
personnel, including principals,
supervisors, and teachers, the
estimated average salary rose to
$8,200 from last year's $7,630.
State averages range from
$10,427 in Alaska to $5,772 in
Mississippi.
-About 108,000 full-time
public school teachers who
instruct an estimated 2.5
million pupils do not meet the
State or local certification
requirements for their
positions. These teachers
represent 5.6 percent of the
Nation's total.
-Although one-fifth of the
States last fall had an increase
in public school enrollment
over the previous year of 4
percent or more, slight
decreases were reported by
South Dakota (0.2),
Mississippi (0.1), and West
Virginia (1.5), and by the
District of Columbia (0.1).
-School districts continued
their trend to reorganization
and consolidation. The number
of school districts declined to a
new low of 20,440 in the fall of
1968, down 7.1 percent from
22,010 a year earlier. About
1,100 of the current total are
sending all their pupils to
nearby districts on a tuition
basis.
-The pupilteacher ration
over the last five years has
decreased from 25.5 to 23.1
pupils per teacher. However,
the survey report cautions that
the ratio is often used to
indicate teacher work load but

that it should not be used as a
measure of "average class size
The survey also shows that
1, 764,500 public elementary
and secondary school
classrooms were in use at the
start of the current school year
- a net increase of 55,500 over
the previous year. In 1967 68, a
total of 75,400 rooms were
constructed or converted from
other uses; but 19,400 rooms
were also abandoned that year
for such reasons as destruction
by fire and urban
redevelopment.
Today, the survey report
reveals, an additional 6,240
public school classrooms are
needed to house the 316,990
pupils reported on curtailed
sessions last fall by 29 States.

Pirate 'Sluggers' down
Washington Colonials
The Pirates bounced back
from a 3-0 deficit to hand the
George Washington Colonials a
53 Southern Conference loss
on Sunday for their third win in
a row. The victory gives the
Pirates a 10-7 overall mark and
a 3-1 mark in the conference,
good for third place.
GW scored first as Eric
Spink, an AII-SC player last
year as a catcher, hit one out to
make it 10. Spink's drive just
cleared the fence in the leftfield
corner at the 310 foot sign.
In the fifth, the Colonials
got two more runs to chase
starter Sonny Robinson.
Bob Dennis led off the
inning with a single to right and
then stole second. Bill Collins
grounded to third where
Norman threw him out at first
after checking Dennis at
second. Bernard then reached
first as Corrada's throw pulled
Taylor off the bag at first, with
Dennis again holding his ground
with the ball hit in front of
him. Spink then walked on a
32 pitch after fouling off
eleven straight pitches from
Robinson to load the bases.
Coach Earl Smith then
brought in Mitchell Hughes who
wild pitched one run in on his
first pitch and then yielded a
single to Cliff Brown on his
second pitch to let another run
score. Rick Glover was quickly
brought in and he retired the
side by striking out the last two
men.
The Pirates, meanwhile, were
having trouble with Dick
Baughman, a freshman
lefthander. Through the first
five innings. East Carolina could
only get two hits as Baughman
kept them under control. In the
sixth, however, the Bucs scored
their first run to make it 3-1.

that time.
In the third inning, Stu
Garrett singled to deep third
base and continued to second

Scott proposal would make
university students trustees
State Senator Ralph Scott has introduced a bill
into the state Legislature asking that students be
given voting representation on the University of
North Carolina board of trustees.
Under this bill, the presidents of the student
bodies of the present four campuses of the University
would serve on the board. The measure would also
apply to similar student officers on other units of the
University that may come under the UNC umbrella.
UNC president William Friday has called the Scott
bill "a constructive step and it has also received the
endorsement of chancellors as well as student leaders.
Chancellor Carlyle Sitterson said at Chapel Hill that it
would give the student generation a voice.
Indeed, we should have a voice. After all, the
whold purpose of the University, and of any college,
is to provede an education for students. Many of us
have complained in recent years that we have become
only numbers in a computer and that the schools and
faculty no longer see us as individuals but simply as
identification numbers. We have also complained that
we have have not been taken into account in the
planning of a curriculum and that much of what we
are taught is irrelevant to us and the society in which
we live.
Such complaints are not new, of course. But when
they rise to the heights of recent years it is time
attention was paid to them.
Under the Scott proposal, students at least would
have a voice in the councils of authority and
responsibility. This indeed is a meager beginning to
making all education relevent but it is a step in the
right direction. It is a good bill and ought to be
adopted.
Year termed successful for
SGA external affairs bureau
The External Affairs division of the Student
Government Association can be quite proud of its
accomplishments this year.
In addition to many awards won by delegates
representing ECU at State Student Legislature and
several model United Nations Conventions, the
External Affairs Committee can now add an
honorable mention from the National Model United
Nations Convention held last week in New York.
The External Affairs division was established to
promote the image of ECU throughout the state and
nation. By doing this, it also broadens the educational
opportunities of the student delegates by sending
them to these national conferences where they work
with students with similar interests from throughout
the United States.
While in New York last week this editor heard the
comment from a professor of Political Science at
Harvard University that the East Carolina University
delegation at the National Model United Nations
always made a favorable impression on him.
He had never heard of ECU before he went to the
NMUN last year. Thus, not only the students who
attend the conventions profit but the whole
university profits by sending responsible and well
prepared delegates to such a convention.
The Harvard professor's last comimnt was "I have
heard so much about Carolina and Duke yet last year
and all of the other times I have been able to observe
them at these conventions, their delegations were far
inferior to those from East Carolina
Thus, a favorable impression is made.
And the reputation of the entire university is
enhanced by it.
