ECU Student Government raises pay for executives,
legislators foil to pass university judicial court measure
The SGA Legislature
defeated a measure to rescind
the four names earlier approved
as student members of the
University Judicial Council
(UJC) in its regular meeting
Monday afternoon.
The bill was an effort to
block the case now before the
UJC involving the arrest of four
black students charged with
blocking cafeteria lines.
Although there was a
majority vote (19-16) for the
measure, it failed because a
rescintion needs a two-thirds
majority to pass.
Jim Carey, who introduced
the bill, pointed out what he
called injustices in the present
UJC case and violations of the
student bill of rights.
Legislator Dennis Chestnut
suggested that the Legislature
rescind the Council appointees
at least until the Blue Ribbon
Committee, formed during last
week's emergency legislative
session to study and revise the
student court system, has
presented its report.
GAP President Whitney
Hadden addressed the body and
requested it to "either stop
proceedings by withdrawing
appointment of the four
student members of the UJC or
fail in its responsibility to
undertake to guarantee the
rights of the student body.
Legislator Bev Jones read to
the body the interview with
David Lloyd on the UJC which
appeared in the last issue of
"The East Carolinian
In other actions, the names
for the 1969-70 Popular
Entertainment Committee were
approved after a long and
heated debate.
The members are Patty
Stimmel, Bobbi Baker, Elaine
Murphy, Ann Rhinehart, Karen
Berge, Martha Cross, Elaine
Gurkins, Keith Parrish, Steve
Keisso, Peter Greenspan,
Howard Marguilies, Gary Ross,
and Russell Uzzle.
Last year's chairman Ada
Sanford will serve again as
co-chairman along with Paul
Brietman.
At an earlier meeting, the
SGA Legislature approved
several salary raises for the
executive SGA officers.
Political science professor sees 'American experience1
w'lhout black man a phony, discusses Pros and
Cons of Black Studies Program on campus
"The American experience
that excludes blacks is a phoney
experience stated Dr. Russel
Adams in a speech in the
Library Auditorium Tuesday
night.
After his introduction by
SGA President John Schofield,
Dr. Adams, noted chairman of
the Political Science
Department of North Carolina
College, stated that "by
excluding courses in our
universities on black Americans
and their experiences in our
society, we are in effect
misleading both black and
white students by teaching
them a phoney conception of
American Society
In his speech on the "Pros
and Cons of a Black Studies
Program Adams first
commented on why such
programs are needed in our
colleges and universities. "There
is a misconception by both
blacks and whites in this
country as to each other's
position in our society and a
general misunderstanding of
each other's actions and
statements
White hysteria
The question, Why is white
America so paranoid over the
black man and his longing for
autonomy?" A simple phrase
"black power spoken by
Stokely Charmichael, sent
white America into hysteria.
"Yet said Dr. Adams, "this
phrase to the black man means
simply the ability of the black
man to control his destiny
While commenting on the
conception and implimentation
of black studies, Dr. Adams
stated that "the whole area is
fluid and by being a new
academic area; there is a
definate lack of qualified
personnelto teach these
programs
White professocs
However, in an interview
with "The Ease Carolinian Dr.
Adams stated that in certain
cases, white professors who are
PICTURED above (LtoR) are Johnny Williams, Dr. Russel Adams, and John achoneiu.

professors can com.icingly Showcase Piece
relate to the student, such as a Above all, these programs
well versed in the subject area
can teach black courses in
universities that are unable to
attract qualified black
professors But these white
professors should be assigned
on a temporary basis, stated Dr.
Adams, for black professors are
needed first to provide someone
with whome the black student
can identify, and secondly
because there are certain
course on ghetto life.
"While in Tel Aviv, I would
be hard put to teach a course
on Jewish History
In the question and answer
period that followed, Dr.
Adams noted that black studies
programs should be established
immediately even if many black
should not be established
simply for the purpose of
printing them in a catalogue
and pointing to them when
someone asks if you have a
black studies program, the
program should be active and
relivant to the students and not
de-facto rasism.

E C Playhouse explores
contemporary subjects
Two very contemporary
subjects will be explored by the
East Carolina Playhouse when
the permiere productions of
"Black Voices" and "A Trip"
open tomorrow night as part of
the Contemporary Arts
Festival.
Scheduled for performances
at 8:15 Friday and Saturday in
McGinnis Auditorium, the new
works deal, respectively, with
the emergence of the "new
Negro" into American society
and the psychodelic effects of
hallucinogenic drugs.
Conceived and staged by
Edgar R. Loessin, "Black
Voices" is a compilation of the
writings of the foremost
contemporary Black authors. It
chronicles the changing face of
Negro opinion concerning the
White man, his own fate, and
himself.
Thy ensemble includes Pat
Burden, Everlena Clark, Ben
Currence, Ken Galloway,
Juanda Holley, Arlene
Saunders, William Lowe,
Ernestine McEachan. Ernest
Minor, Luther Moore, Ann

Danced to the music of the
Beatles' "Yellow Submarine it
relates an impressionistic love
story conjured up by one of the
"mind expanding" drugs.

of transit system April 29
On April 29, a referendum
will be held on the transit
system. Ballot boxes will be set
up in the U.U. and dorm lobies
from 9 to 5, according to Dan
Summers, elections chairman.
John Schofield, SGA
President, has many plans for
the system. Among the plans
are the expansion of the system
to three and possible four
buses, with the route basically
the same.
Negotiations are being
conducted with several buses
companies to obtain the lowest
costs with the best service.
Schofield hopes to hold the
quarterly cost a $2 per student.
This will be covered by an
increase in the activity fee.
Business manager F.D.
Duncan is investigating the
UNC-CH transit system to find
out how it works.
"It is not feasible to operate
our own system because of the
high costs Schofield said.
"I feel it would be a sad
mistate if this issue is defeated.
If it is defeated, I will push for
another vote later Schofield
said.
I.D. and activity cards will
be needed to vote.
A victory bell will be the
Senior Class gift this year,
according to class president
Steve Morrisette.
The bell will be mounted in
a tower on the mall, to be rung
after victories by Pirate teams.
Seniors will sell yearbook
covers for 25 cents to gam
revenue for the project.
The class also discussed the
Senior Banquet to be held May
6 at the Greenville Country
Club. At the banquet, awards
will be given for Who's Who
Outstanding Seniors from each
department, and the senior with
the highest academic average.
Entertainment for the
banquet will be a jazz combo
which will play during the
dinner and later for a dance.

j' i He can Carolinian
Dean Mallory sounds thoughts
on University Judicial Council
tu? Pat Carolinian: "With annoint a hn,?i ,?
Page 3
The East Carolinian: "With
some of the focus p the UJC
controversy centering around
the Dean of Men's office, would
you give us some idea of your
feelings on the situation?"
Dean James Mallory: "I will
not argue the pros or cons of
this committee. I simply wish
t0 state the facts as they are.
I as1 spring Dr. Tucker, Dean
of Student Affairs and myself
discusser! the possibility of
forming a new judicial council
,0 heal drug cases and overt
actions such as riots and
demonstrations. We realized
that disruptions were increasing
throughout the United States
and we also realized that
student use of drugs was
increasing on our campus.
Therefore, we figured we would
need a special judicial council in
order to hear cases of this type
and to make a determination as
to whether students charged
with violations of this type
should be left in school and, if
so, under what conditions.
This idea was banted around
for quite some time and on
September 30, 1968, a
recommendation was made to
President Jenkins to approve
formulation of this new judicial
council. The University Judicial
Council has been approved by
the President to operate under
special or unusual situations
and circumstances. It is a
Presidential Board, although
students are on this board who
have been selected using the
democratic process; I do not see
how anyone can doubt the
legality of this board, since the
President is charged with the
final determination in all
disciplinary matters. He could
appoint a board of all
administrators or all faculty if
iie so desired.
Since we do have a
student oriented judiciary, we
thought it only fair to give the
students the majority vote. The
faculty chairman gives
permanance and maturity and
in case of court litigation, ECU
is in a much more responsible
position because of faculty
representation
The East Carolinian: "After
approval by the President, what
procedures put the UJC into
effect?"
Dean Mallory: "Dr. Jenkins
appointed the chairman and
other faculty members of this
council. In a phone
conversation and letter to David
Lloyd, he was asked to appoint
student members of the council
and I suggested using the same
procedures as those used with
the Review Board other than
the cha;rman. I do not know
what procedures were used but
the students were appointed
The East Carolinian: "When
were the first cases heard by
this council?"
Dean Mallory: "The first
case was heard on December 5,
1968. Four students were
charged with sale and
possession of amphetamine
drugs
The East Carolinian: What
was the disposition?"
Dean Mallory: "All of these
students were allowed to
remain in school under conduct
probation
The East Carolinian: "Have
you presented to the Student
Government for approval any
suggested changes to the
student government judicial
system?"
Dean Mallory: "Yes. A
committee headed by Paul
Allen, Attorney General and
members from all judicial
bodies met and discussed
changes which they thought
were needed in the system.
These changes were presented
to the SGA and subsequently
approved.
Since the changes of student
representation on the UJC was
included, certain individuals
immediately received the
impression that this was the
first time the student
membership of the UJC had
ever been proposed and passed.
I might add here that John
Schofield (SGA President)
following the recommended
revision of membership,
appointed one more student to
this council. Charles Denny, an
original member, who is now
practice teaching, also had to be
replaced and his successor was
also appointed. Jimmy Green
and Marty Almond, two
original members appointed in
the fall, are still serving.
The East Carolinian: "Do
you know if the SGA
Legislature approved the
original student appointments
to the UJC?"
Dean Mallory: "This I do
not know. In my conversation
and correspondence with Mr.
Lloyd, I suggested, did not
demand, that the student
appointments follow the
procedure used in Review
Board appointments. This is to
say the Executive Council
recommends a certain number
of students to the Legislature
and the Legislature determines
the appointees
The East Caroli lian: "Was
the UJC originally set up to
review the fitness of students to
remain at ECU after having
been convicted by a student,
city, state or federal court of a
crime involving drugs or other
serious crimes?"
Dean Mallory: "Yes. The
difficulty in this question lies in
the fact that students and other
people fail to differentiate
between a judiciary council and
a court of law.
We are not a court of law;
we do not hear evidence, we
hear findings. We do not invoke
sentences; we invoke penalties.
This court, in the case which it
has heard and in the case now
being heard is carrying out its
specific funtions for which it
was formed. Namely, a student
or students are charged with a
violation and this council in
session is seeking to prove
innocence or guilt and to make
a determination as to whether
the student or students will be
left in school and under what
conditions. The right of appeal
is not denied any student who
appears before this council
The East Carolinian:
"Monday afternoon, the SGA
Legislature voted on
withdrawing the appointment
of students to the UJC. The
vote was 19 in favor and 16
against. However the motion
failed because it lacked a 23
majority. What is your opinion
of this action?"
Dean Mall ory: "The
administration of ECU and the
SGA have always worked
together with closeness, dignity
and respect on both sides. I
sincerely feel it would be a
grievous mistake to withdraw
the appointment of students.
I say this for three reasons.
One, the student administration
which originally appointed the
students is not now in power.
Two, the Blue Ribbon
Committee on Judicial Affairs,
appointed by John Schofield,
should be given an opportunity
to present its recommendations
to the Legislature before any
further action takes place. And
three, it would be a terrible
mistake to terminate the close
liason which has traditionally
had administration and students
working closely together.
Nation's students cry for involvement rn Parrnil?
(ACP) rhe trend toward council" has been formed of six specific changes have not been JI U Cl ? ? ? l U O
(ACP)- The trend toward
student involvement in campus
decision making has been
growing.
Types of student
participation have taken many
forms ranging from student
membership on committees
seeking new presidents to joint
student faculty administration
decision making bodies.
In Kentucky students sought
and obtained a state law to gain
student membership on boards
of trustees of six
state supported institutions,
including the University of
Kentucky, where students are
helping to find a new president.
An increasing number of
institutions are permitting
students to sit on faculty or
f acu I ty adm inistration
committees - in some cases as
voting members. At the
University of Redlands, for
example, the faculty recently
voted to include students as
voting members on committees
concerned with curriculum,
personnel, foreign programs and
honors, as well as student
affairs committees.
Seven students will become
Ml voting members o the
university senate at New York
University. At Maryland College
,n Tennessee, an "all-college
council" has been formed of six
students, six faculty members
and six administrative officers.
The council will be the
institution's chief deliberative
and legislative body responsible
for long-range planning and for
directing the activities of the
entire college community.
At the State University of
New York at Binghamton,
students, faculty and
administrators will vote this
spring on a new community
government plan that would
establish a policy-making
university assembly with a ratio
of five faculty members to
three students to two
administrators.
At Columbia University,
where lack of student
involvement ir governing has
been cited as an underlying
cause of last year's disruptions,
thore will be a vote later this
spring on a plan to establish a
100-member university senate
with 20 student members.
At Upper Iowa College, two
students have been added with
full voting privileges to the
college's executive committee,
which formulates college
policy, exercises administrative
control and determines budget
matters.
At many institutions where
specific changes have not been
made, joint stu-
dent-f acu It-administration
committees have been formed
to discuss and make
recommendations about
changes in student
participation. Such committees
have been formed at Bucknell
University and the University of
Pennsylvania.
Among other recent
developments have been the
addition of students as voting
members of academic council
committees at Stanford
University, the admission of
three students as non-voting
narticiDants in trustee's
meetings at American
University.
Although it would seem
many colleges and universities
are making serious efforts to
give student a voice in
decision-making, Mary Meehan,
former director of the U.S.
committees may be only a
gesture of appeasement by
faculty or administration
"But she continued student
representation on one or two
major committees may signify
philosophical acceptance of
direct student participation in
campus government.

Sociologist Mead criticizes medieval
college teacher -pupil relationship
NEW YORK, N.Y Dr.
Margaret Mead charged today
that our conception of the
teacher pupil relationship at the
college and university level is
"medieval" and recommended
"salaries" for students to make
them economically independent
and give them dignity.
The noted anthropologist
and educator said, "The
rebellion of today's student's
forces us to realize that they are
no longer content to accept the
traditional student role of
submissive and dependent
members of the academic
community
"They object to the
conditions under which they
are permitted to become and
remain students to the arbitrary
control of their personal lives
and the lack of response to
their demands for changes in
the rules about what they must
learn, how and when and from
whom
Predicting that education is
certain to become our "greatest
social and economic
enterprise Dr. Mean said it
will be necessary to "design a
wholly new kind of studentship
in new kinds of institutional
settings.
As long as institutions of
learning are only partly
supported by student's fees and
Parents must continue to
contribute financially to their
children's education, students
WH remain subordinate to the
dictates of others
Dr Mead said "we must
treat everyone at 18 as a young
adult who has economic,
political and educational
control over his-and her-own
life.
It means the vote for 18
year olds and positive
provisions for students to vote
wherever they are. It means
draft reform that will take into
account essential stages of
study and work experience.
"Above all it means
economic independence, so that
each student, equipped with his
own funds, will be able to make
his personal choice and will be
free to decide when and in what
setting he will get his training
Dr. Mead said that various
methods of underwriting the
economic independence of all
students have been discusses.
"For example, we can
provide adequate salaries for
students out of public funds,
through taxes, exactly as pay
for other essential services.
I believe, however, that
private funds from foundations
and individuals still will be
needed to underwrite new,
experimental educational
programs and the salaries of
individually innovative
students.
"Young men and women
who are earning the right to
study by making responsible
use of opportunities are likely
to be serious and hard-working.
And older man and women will
feel justified in returning to
school or entering programs of
training because of the dignity
and security of the student's
posititon.
"We should not ask a man to
choose between dependency on
his parents, dependency on his
wife or the assumption of a
heavy burden of debt in order
to attend school. Nor should we
expect wives to forgo education
for financial reasons.
Only when education is fully
available to all those at any
time who are ready to make a
choice will we begin to have a
free flow of knowledge and a
balance between responsible
learning and action Dr. Mead
declared.

"Romeo & Juliet" captures
spirit and vitality of youth
Romeo and Juliet
(Paramount Pictures) directed
by Franco Zeffirelli, starring
Olivia Hussey and Leonard
Whiting.
Ben Jonson said it best:
Shakespeare "was not of an age,
but for all time
But, if anyone had any
doubts, they were dispelled by
Franco Zeffirelli in his
production of "Romeo and
Juliet Zeffierlli has managed
to bridge the "generation gap"
between 1593 and 1969
without omitting any of the
diction or style for which
Shakespeare is famous.
The "Bard" emerges intact.
Except for a few minor
omission of scenes for the
purpose of reducing the play to
"feature length the play
remains in the Folio version
(1623).
Minor changes
Zeffirelli's minor changes:
the omission of the plague as
the obstacle, preventing Brother
John from informing Romeo of
Juliet's feigned suicide, and the
omissionot the killing of Paris in
the death scene, do not detract
from the play; if anything, they
facilitate the action and prevent
unnecessary subplots from
interferring with the main
theme of the play.
Zeffirelli's direction is not
flawless; but, as a whole, his
production of "Romeo and
Juliet" is the best film
production of a Shakespeare
play to date.
Superb casting
The casting of two teenagers
to play the legendary
adolescents is an innovation.
The movie is the first screen
production of "Romeo and
Juliet" to utilize teenagers in
the play's leading roles: Romeo
(Leonard Whiting), Juliet
(Olivia Hussey), Tybalt (Milo
O'Shea), and Mercutio (John
McEnery).
Indeed, the key to the
Zeffirelli production is the
vitality and youth which he
injects into the script. The
genius of Zeffirelli is evident in
the manner in which he
integrates the articulation of
the players' speeches into the
action of the plot. The result is
'he first fluid, highly
understandable film production
Jen tol
By ROBERT McDOWELL
of Shakespeare. All of the
beauty of Shakespeare's diction
- poetry and puns - -is
preserved.
The genius of Shakespeare
lies in his use of the language.
The genijs of Zeffirelli lies in
his use of Shakespeare.
Zeffirelli returns "Romeo and
Juliet" lyrical intent of the
author.
Light and lyrical
"Romeo and Juliet" was not
meant to be played with the
serious posturings of high
tragedy ?? it was meant to be
light and lyrical and tragic
only in its fatal outcome;
which, and this is the message,
was preventable by the
substitution of humanity for
social structures, and
understanding for pride.
The bickerings and
skirmishes between the
Montagues and the Capulets are
analogous to the feuding among
nations in the twentieth
century. It is senseless and
unnecessary warfare motivated
by chauvinism or avarice.
The theme of young love,
infected by the impatience of
youth and a touch of divine
providence, is presented against
a background of baroque
tapestries of Renaissance
Verona.
The movie is filmed in
modern Verona, which has
changed little since
Shakespeare's day.
Action in the microcosm
The situations of the play
have also remained unchanged.
Verona, beset by feuding
families, is a micro cosmic-
projection of the world
situation. The theme is as valid
today as it was in the fifteenth
century.
Both Verona and the world
are infected by warring factions
which inflict their ritualistic
atrocities indiscriminately on
participants and bystanders
alike. Such is the nature of war.
Men die for abstract concepts:
honor, fealty, patriotism. Men
die in earnest and men die in
vain. The guilty and the
guiltless are punished alike.
There is no conscience built
into the sword- or the bomb.
War crimes
The crime that war
inevitably perpetrates against
the individual is a crime

perpetuated and sustained by
the "establishment" for whom
war exists as a political or
economic expedient.
This establishment, this set
of arbitrary rules for morals and
pseudo-chivalric rules for
conflagration, is Shakespeare's
target- and Zeffirelli's.
Theme of young love
The theme of young lovers
victimized by a senseless family
feud emphasizes the traditional
conflict between human morals
and societies' ethics. Romeo
and Juliet are innocents
condemned by the
circumstances of their births
and executed by the
decandence of their society.
The tragedy of the play's
ending is emphasized by the
comedy that dominates the
major part of the play until the
death of Mercutio.
The initial brawl in the
marketplace, the comic events
of the Capulets' masque, the
youthful exhuberance of the
balcony scene, Romeo 3nd
Juliet's picaresque irreverence
to the staid and stolid nature of
the church service which
sanctifies their marriage, the
comic scene between Mercutio
and Juliet's nurse- all these
elements create and prolong a
comic background before which
the feud between the Capulets
and the Montagues takes on an
air of unreality.
The dream world
The dream world is shatterea
by the death of Mercutio -
which I think is the highlight of
the play. From that point on,
the denoument seems almost
mechanical. There is still the
lyrical consumation scene, but
it is not strong enough to
redeem the rest of the play. The
death scene is superbly done;
but when it is juxtaposed with
the death of Mercutio, it cannot
stand the comparison. The
former lacks the intensity
which the latter develops to a
fine art.
Hysterical children

now a film that is definitive of
"Monterey Pop" is the
definitive survey course in 20th
Century American Hard Rock.
D.A. Pennebaker ("Don't Look
Back) and his many
camera-wielding assistants have
spliced together a union of
color and sound fully as
powerful and almost as perfect
as did the Walt Disney studios
in the classic "Fantasia" of two
decades ago.
One can't fail to become
excited by the intensity of both
the color and sound, much less
by these people, in this frenzied
fresco of the Monterey
International Pop Festival.
These groups are producing a
revolutionary music, some of
which comes fascinatingly close
to 'pure sound The film stars
Joplin is unbelieveable, but
is there nevertheless. The Who
do what they're known foras do
Simon and Garfunkle and
Shankar. Most of these groups
seem to have a definite theme
about which each group
performs in its preferred
manner.
The Who have a reason for
destroying their equipment;
Janis Joplin is castrating her
vocal chords for a Cause and
Pennebaker almost lets us down
by telling the secret.
"Monterey Pop" is highlights
of a week-long sound festival.
Pennebaker has strung together
all the best sound, juggled the
lenses, filters and lights and has
produced a beautiful "Rock for
Everyman" film. Although it
pretends to be reality, it's not -
but So What! It's a Gas.
detractor from Zeffirelli's
direction is the portrayal of
Romeo and Juliet as hysterical
children when they are
forceably separated by Romeo's
impulsive killing of Tybalt in a
duel. The lovers, as adolescents,
are credible, but Romeo and
Juliet as two screaming, crying
children caught in a
temper-tantrum, is too much. It
must be said, however, that
these scenes are brief and only
momentarily distracting.
The movie is worth the price
of admission just for the
innovations that Zeffirelli has
brought to the script, written
for the screen by Franco
Brn;ati and Masolino D'Amico.
Romeo and Juliet" is an
unforgetable experience in the
theatre which has been
transformed by Zeffirelli into
the best Shakespeare movie of
all time.

Golf Coach Johnny Welborn watches as the post-game handshake winds up another
good day for the Bucs, who are now 8-2 on the season.
Pirates to play three weekend games
East Carolina's Daseball
Pirates, their Southern
Championship hopes only a
faint glimmer after a 3-3
divisional reading, play three
conference games this weekend,
but can't help their title
situation.
Saturday the Bucs go against
Richmond at Richmond and
then move to VMI for a
doubleheader Sunday.
Favored to repeat as the
league's champions, the Bucs
have been upset by The Citadel
in a doubleheader, and split
with Davidson in a
doubleheader after beating the
Wildcats in a doubleheader.
"It doesn't look good for us,
but it isn't impossible Coach
Earl Smith said of the Pirate
chances at the division title.
"We'll have to sweep our
remaining games with Furman
and The Citadel and hope
they'll knock each other off
when they play
The Bucs boast the league's
top runs batted in man in
Captain Carey Anderson, who
has 18 in 21 games, and are
second in team batting to
William and Mary. Anderson is
also the league's leader in
doubles with seven and as a
team, the Pirates are second in
earned run averaae with 2.30.
Weakness in the field events
again brought about another
defeat for the track team
Saturday. N.C. State visited the
Buc thinclads, and went away
witn an 89-55 victory.
The Bucs picked up four
points in the field events, and
took six first place in running
events. State picked up 11 first,
seven coming in field

Gridiron' squads wind up spring practice
Experience and knowhow
will be pitted against youth and
enthusiasm here Saturday
afternoon when East Carolina's
football squad winds up its
spring football practice with the
eighth annual Purple Gold
game.
The Gold squad, which has
won four and tied one in the
series, is composed chiefly of
veterans while the Purple,
winner of two and with one tie,
has the more youthful element.
Despite the fact that the
Gold has 19 letter winners to
only six for the Purple, Head
Coach Clarence Stasavich says
he and the members of his staff
feel the division leaves neither
team with a distinctive
advantage.
"It seems likely that it will
be a very close game which will
be low scoring Stasavich said.
The head coach will merely
observe the proceedings, while
members of his staff run the
show. Coaching the Gold team
will be Henry Vansant,
defensive line coach, Harold
Bullard, end coach, and Bill
Cain, freshman coach. The
Purple coaches are backfield
coach Bob Gantt, offensive line
coach Odell Welborn, and John
Sommerville.
Missing the game because of
injuries or participation in other
sports, are five lettermen. They
are backs Stu Garrett, Richard
Corrada, and Dwight Flanagan
and linemen Don Tyson and
Wilbur Sasser. All five have
been starters.
"Spring practice has been
very satisfactory, although we
did not accomplish all of our
objectives we had set
Stasavich said. "It appears that
several sophomores will break
into the starting lineup next
fall
"The offense showed some
improvement, but the big
improvement has been in the
defensive play. The squad as a
whole showed considerable
improvement as far as
individual performance and this
is the thing you are primarily
interested in the spring, more
than in team play
The team has been involved
in some experimentation in the
spring, both on offense and
defense and some changes in
the pattern of play will be
noted.
"These inovations should
improve our overall football
picture Stasavich said. "Due
to a heavy schedule of
fundamental practice there are
several young men who won't
be ready to play. But the
number of injuries has been
surprisingly small. It has been a
good practice from the injury
standpoint. The number of
players participating is the
largest we've ever had in the
spring
Lambda Chi leads fraternity division
Yankees top the independent league
Lambda Chi Alpha captured
first place by taking a squeaker
over Kappa Alpha 5 4 and a
forfeit from Theta Chi in
fraternity league softball last
week.
Lambda Chi Alpha now
holds a 8 0 record.
In other games, Sigma Phi
Epsilon eased by Kappa Sigma
by a 3 1 score to remain
undefeated with a 7 0 record.
The victory gave them a
solid i cond place in the league
standings.
Phi Kappa Tau moved into
third place by virtue of a forfeit
from Alpha Epsilon Pi which
boosted their record to 5-11.
Phi Epsilon Kappa dropped
from third to fourth place after
falling to Pi Kappa Alpha by a
14 4 shelling. The game tied the
two teams for fourth place with
Pi Kappa Phi, all with 52
records.
Kappa Sigma is in seventh
place with a 4-4 record after
losing to Delta Sigma Phi 118
and Sigma Phi Epsilon 3 1.
Next in eighth place is Tau
Kappa Epsilon with an even 3 3
record after getting by Dlta
Sigma Phi 4-2.
Advancing from twelfth
place to ninth place is Delta
Sigma Pi. Slipping by Kappa
Alpha 5 4, they improved their
record to 2-3. Alpha Epsilon Pi
dropped from ninth to tenth
place with a 2-4 record after
forfeiting to Phi Kappa Tau.
The remaining seven teams
in the league are in a struggle
for the cellar position.
Independent League
In Independent League
Softball last week, the Yankees
edged the Rebels by a score of
7-5 and rolled over the Baptist
Student Union 9-2 to run their
undefeated string to 6-0.
The Coach and Four moved
up from fifth place by taking a
forfeit from the Shady Oak
Bombers and bombing the
Turkeys 145 to extend their
record to 5-1.
The Way House slipped
down from second place to
third place as they did not play
and maintain a 4 1 record. In
fourth place with a 5-2 record
are the Braves who split two
games, first winning over EC
Honor Cadets in a slugging
contes, 18 16, and then losing
to the Scotts 5 1.
Tied for fifth place are the
Rebels and the Scotts with
identical records of 4-0. The
Rebels slipped from second
place after losing to the
Yankees 7 5 while the Scotts
advanced from seventh place by
defeating the Braves 5 1.
Next in seventh place are the
Turkeys who lost to the Coach
and Four to make their record
3-2. In eighth place are the EC
Honor Cadets with an even 3-3
record after falling to the
Braves.
Remaining teams are locked
in a battle for last place with
the Baptist Student Union
currently in control with a 0-6
record. Just ahead are the
Shady Oak Bombers with a 1-5
record and the Cherry Chasers
with a 1-4 record after getting
its first win by virtue of a
forfeit over the Baptist St jent

Schuleter, Whicker head golf squad , players vie
for other four remaining team positions
Greensboro's Page High
School has been noted in the
past for its fine golf teams but
perhaps none of theose fine
prep golfers are as well known
around the East Carolina
University campus as Mike
Schlueter.
Schlueter, who alternated
between third and fourth man
his senior year at Page, is now a
senior at East Carolina and has
been the number one man for
the Pirate linksters for the past
two years he alternated
between number one and
number two as a sophomore.
Another Greensboro Page
product helping the Pirates'
fortunes on the links is Vance
Whicker, who played number
one his senior year in high
school and went on to win the
Central 4-A Conference
individual championship that
same year. As a junior at Page,
Whicker played seventh man.
This year Whicker is
alternating between sixth and
seventh man for the Pirates and
has hopes of nailing down the
sixth position before the
Conference tournament which
will be held in early May at
Pinehurst.
Schlueter, whose college golf
achievements include finishing
third individually in the
conference as a sophomore and
eighth last year as a junior, has
picked as his goal for this
season, going to the NCAA
Finals which will be held at
Colorado Springs, Colorado.
"I have been here four years
and we haven't gone yet he
said. "I think if we are ever
going to make it this is the year
because we really have some
fine players. All we need to do
is get together before the
conference tournament and
start playing well
Schlueter readily admits he
has thought about winning the
individual championship this
year but had this to say about
the number two course at
Pinehurst. "It is one of the
most demanding courses I have
ever played he ssid. "The man
who is playing the best and gets
the breaks as well will win the
tournament
The senior linkster, who is
busy working for a double
major in English and History,
stands 4-2 on the season for the
Pirates. He missed the last
match against Virginia Military
because he was qualifying for
the Azalea Golf Tournament in
Wilmington.
Schlueter contributes his
success to much better
thinking. "I think I finally grew
up while I was on the course
he sai. "Also my iron game has
been much improved and that
has helped a lot
Schlueter, who carries a one
handicap, had some harsh
words about the way golf is
treated in the conference. "Golf
in the conference has picked up
considerably since I was a
sophomore but it is still one of
the mocf underrated sports in
the co erence he said. "We
hardly play anyone in the
conference before the
conference match because of
lack of money.

Battle For Position
The remainder of the team
battling for the sixth position
includes Ray Sharpe, Bobby
Elks, John Long and Phil
Wallace.
"If my putting could just
come around like it was at the
first of the season I feel sure I
could nail down the sixth
position Whicker said. "It has
not been good lately and my
game sure shows it
In 1966, East Carolina's
football team finished in the
Southern Conference, the
second year the Pirates had
been a member. In '67, they
finished second, and in '68,
third.

East Carolina's golf team
added two more victories to
their record Monday, downing
Campbell College and Old
Dominion College.
Campbell is one of the top
golfing teams in the South and
were previously unbeaten in
fourteen matches going into
Monday's match, but ECU
downed the Camels, 17-10.
Campbell's Sammy Brewer took
medalist honors with a 72.
Against Old Dominion, the
Bucs won by 22-10. The pair of
wins brought East Carolina's
record up to 8-2.
Mike Schlueter, Marshall
Utterson, Joe Tyson, and Phil
Wallace shot 74's for the Bucs

Crew
You won't find crew, or
rowing, listed among the
intercollegiate sports at East
Carolina, but the sport is much
in evidence as it goes after a
major championship for the
second week in a row Saturday
when it competes with 11 other
schools in the Southern
Championships at Charleston,
S.C.
Before going to the Southern
Championships this weekend,
the Pirates take on Jacksonville
University on the Tar River
Thursday afternoon in the
Fielclcrest Regatta, which has
become the major event on the
local schedule each year. The
Pirates will then rush back
home from Charleston to meet
Howard University (Wash
DC.) Sunday afternoon.
The Pirate team, which
operates on a club basis, caused
quite a stir just over a week ago
when they finished second in
the Gnmaldi Cup Regatta at
Jamaica, NY getting nipped at
the finish by Villanova. Among
the teams finishing behind East
Carolina were Notre Dame and
Holy Cross, a couple of rowing
powerhouses.
"I feel like we are coming
along well and from the way we
rowed in the Grimaldi, I would
say we have an excellent chance
in the Southern and the Dad
Vail Coach Vic Pezzulla said.
"The false start in the
Grimaldi hurt us a lot. We were
out in front by two boat
lengths and although we got out
in front on the restart, we
never had that much of a lead
and we sort of tired at the
end

Dame shells collided soon after

oars was broken, brinqinq about
the re-start.
"The fact that we had rowed
500 meters before we were
stopped and were already a
little tired from the long drive,
probably kept us from having
the push at the end that could
have won for us Pezzulla siad.
Villanova hit the finish line a
mere second in front of East
Carolina.
Coach Pezzulla, who has an
interest in a local automobile
dealershipis in his second year
as crew coach at ECU while the
club itself is now in its fourth
year. The club has already
established a pace for itself that
compares favorably, if not
surpasses, the 11 sports that
East Carolina competes in witf.
the other members of the
Southern Conference.
The Pirates have rapidly
gained recognition as a power
to contend with in the future
and this is beginning to pay off,
since, as a club, there are no
scholarships.
"The word is beginning to
get around that East Carolina is
serious about its crew program
and we are beginning to get
boys who have had experience
in high school, prep schools,
and athletic clubs Pezzulla
said.
After the Grimaldi Regatta,
the New York Times recognized
the import of the strides by
East Carolina, saying:
"East Carolina's showing was
noteworthy since the growing
university in Greenville, North
Carolina is trying hard to make
an impression in many
inter-collegiate sports and doing
well in most cases. This is the
third year of rowing for the
university that is not sutuated
near any body of water suitable
for rowing eight-oared shells
The Southern is one of two
major regattas left on the Bucs'
schedule. The next one is the
Dad Vail in Philadelphia, May
9-10, which will decide the
national championship.

Controversy again rises over
University Judicial Coundl
The ugly head of controversy has risen from the
dark recesses of third floor Wright Annex and the
"closeness, dignity and respect" between the student
government and administration, spoken of in Dean
Mallory's interview (page 3), seem to have been
severely strained.
Standing in the center of this controversy is the
University Judicial Council which is presently trying
four students for the general charge of "conduct
unbecoming an ECU student
This issue, as an issue, has reached proportions far
outweighing the importance of any decision this body
may reach.
The finding of guilt or innocence of these
students, indeed all possible actions of the UJC, will
directly affect few ECU students; however, the
possible future ramifacations of the present situation
could indirectly influence every student.
The East Carolinian has tried to ascertain all
relevant facts on this issue and must confess that it is
an impossiblity.
Confusion and ignorance seem to be barriers to
any complete understanding by any party.
In Dean Mallory's interview, he makes statements
which seemingly contradict the Speaker of the
Legislature, past SGA President David Lloyd and even
himself.
Many members of the Legislative and Executive
branches admit they "don't really know what the hell
is going on and the immediate reaction has been
one of question and concern.
The present year has been one of great progress
towards responsible student government and to all
intents and purposes it appeared that the students on
this campus indeed had "self-government
It has taken the present UJC controversy to bring
out the fact that this is not true.
The UJC was originally formed as the Drug Review
Board, a Presidential Board with student
representation.
On March 24th, the student membership of the
UJC and certain Judiciary Constitutional changes
were presented to the student Legislature by Dean
Mallory.
Further controversy has arisen over whether the
UJC itself was presented for approval, indeed whether
the question of the UJC is one the student
government could even consider.
The one basic fact which looms large over the
entire situation is that the SGA exists only at the
pleasure of the President of the University.
Impotence is an affliction few people or
organizations care to claim; however, unless the
student government is given the power and unless it
accepts the responsibility to act freely as the
self government of the students, it will .deed be
impotent.
RRT
Circus convenes Monday
See the big Show' It takes place every Monday on
the third floor of Wright Annex in the SGA
Legislature room.
The "big show" is the SGA Legislature. It provides
many laughs for those outside the legislature who
attend a meeting. For the legislators themselves, it
causes frayed nerves and ill humor by the time the
usual two hour bickering session comes to an end
with only about half of the business taken care of.
This editorial does not intend to make light of the
vork done by the legislature. It does, however, intend
to strongly criticize the amount of unnecessary
Parliamentary hogwash that goes on in this
supposedly responsible body.
The- legislature as a whole is not to blame for this.
Only a few members exercize their knowledge of
parliamentary trickery to detain members and to
keep this body from taking care of important
business.
The legislature cannot hope to become functional
until this mane parliamentary bickering is abolished.
The East Carolinian encouranges Speaker Bill
Richardson to exercise a strong hand in dealing with
this situation

Dear Editor:
The student legislature has
now reached the summit of
professionalism with the
institution of non individualism
and pseudo senatorial courtesy.
The chief legislator, in my
opinion, who deserves such
criticism is none other than Bob
Robinson.
The point is, why does
Robinson require this attention.
Specifically, the issue of the
newly appointed members of
the Entertainment Committee
came before the legislature last
Monday at which time he raised
objection to the appointment
of Miss Ada Sanford as
co chairman of this committee.
Robinson's objection alone is
not to be questioned, but his
manner of precedure is
somewhat questionable.
Robinson proposed an
amendment to exclude Miss
Sanford from the committee
but it failed after much heated
debate. In an attempt to gain
back the respect of his fellow
legislators, Robinson moved to
accept by acclamation the
entire slate of the new
Entertainment Committee
including Miss Sanford.
However, the controversial
legislator had a trick up his
sleeve. It seems as though he
instructed newly named
legislator Stephen Huhbard to
object to his motion which
i ider proper procedure killed
the motion. A complicated
situation indeed, but Robinson
did this hoping to come out
looking lily-white while his
pawns did the dirty work.
This entire circumstance and
others like it are all part of one
glorious plan, and that is to get
Mr. Robinson elected speaker
of the Legislature next year. It
seems, however, that Robinson
and his pawns have been all too
obvious in their exercise of
authority. . . ,
