City lawyer
comments on
the ordinance
Jerry Paul, a prominent Greenville
attorney, was contacted by
Fountainhead last night ai his home in
the wake of contraversy arising from the
legality of the city ordinance under which
ECU students were arrested. The
following are his remarks:
"The trouble with the ordinance used
in arresting the students is that it is too
broad and far-reaching, and is not drawn
strictly enough to overcome a specific
evil. Thus, by its broadness it results in a
chilling effect.
The free exercise of 1st Amendment
rights brings it into conflict with the case
of Nobrosky vs Pifster. In this case, a
similar ordinance was overturned for
numerous reasons. The discretion placed
in the hands of the Chief of Police has
been a factor in the overturning of such
ordinances.
An example may be found in a case
brought against the city of Birmingham.
The court considers 1st Amendment
rights to be of primary importance and
restrictions upon 1st Amendment rights
can only be done under narrowly drawn
and strictly construed ordinances. The
primary purpose of any such ordinance
should be to allow the demonstrations
not prohibit them.
While it is true that the court attempts
to balance the rights of the pedestrian and
the users of the streets, this balance is
weighed in favor of those who wish to
communicate their views.
Justice Robet t, in the case of Hague vs.
Cio denied that the cities ownership of

Bucs lose to 'Frank's babies'
By SONNY LEA
Sports Editor
South Carolina's nationally
ranked Gamecocks took
advantage of the free throw
line here Wednesday night,
handing the Pirates their first
loss of the year before a sellout
crowd, 68-49.
Before 6,200 screaming fans
in Minges Coliseum, the Pirates
stayed in the game until big
men Jim Fairley and Jim
Gregory got in foul trouble.
Fairley, a sophomore
forward, who led the Pirates
offensively most of the night
and was the team's leading
rebounder, left the game with
with 8:48 remaining on fouls.
He had 10 points and seven
rebounds.
After that, the Gamecocks
slowly pulled away.
Led by all American quard
John Roche, who blistered the
nets with 24 points and 6 10
forward Tom Owens added 16
points and led the rebounding
with 12.
For the first time all season
the Pirates did not hold the
advantage on the backboards.
Out rebounded 40 to 31
Modlin, the Pirates' leading
rebounder was held to only
one. He had averaged 15
through the first three games.
No one seemed to want the
lead during the fust 10 minutes
of play as it changed hands six
times. Six times during that 10
minutes was the score tied.
The Pirates' biggest lead
came with 11:30 remaining
when Gregory hit on a driving
layup to make it 15 12.
But Roche hit two free
throws a minute latei to give
the Gamecocks the lead for
good at 16 15.
The visitors ran their lead to
eight after Rick Aydlett hit a
short jumper, Owens
connected from underneath
and Roche scored on a steal to
make the score 25 17
New student union planned
completion due next year
A new student union, now
being planned on budget of S3
million, is one of the few
buildings considered essential
enough by the 1969 General
Assembly to be authorized
under a reduced capital
improvements program for the
state.
The building, when
completed next year will
accomodate a wide variety of
activities carried on by
students and administration.
To be included in the
structure are rooms for student
government and publications,
lounges, reading rooms, music
listeningi rooms, food service
space, space for bowling, billi-
ards and table tennis, and spec
ial day student lounge facili-
ties.
The building will be ar-
ranged to provide four separate
zones on each of three floors.
The scheme, architects say, en
ables the cutting off of certain
activities which must proceed
during hours when the union
proper may be closed.
F. D Duncan, vice president
and business manager, said the
building is planned in brick to
harmonize with other campus
structures and a pre-cast con-
crete fascia and other treat
ments in keepinq with the arch

for city reprimand
A motion to reprimand the
City of Greenville for arresting
27 students in a recent march
was tabled by the SGA
Legislature at its meeting
Monday.
Wayne Eads introduced the
Motion which required a 23

consideration. The motion fell
one vote short and was tabled
until the next meeting.
In other business, Jim Watts
introduced a bill that would
appropriate S3,575 to WECU
and S2,683.68 to the
Buccaneer.
The bill was sent to the
appropritations committee for
study.
Speaker Len Mancini
announced that there are now
six vacancies in the Student
Legislature.
He said there is one vacancy
from each of the following
dorms; Fleming, Garrett,
Aycock, New Women's,
Ragsdale and Umstead.
In other business, Mancini
appointed a committee to
study the ticket sales to the
ECU South Carolina game.
WRC meets to award
Ruth White scholarship
The Women's Residence
Council met in a special session
Tuesday night to award the
first annual Ruth White
Scholarship.
Miss Ruth White, former
Dean of Womerj, was guest of
honor at the meeting.
Jane Hand, Chairman of the
Scholarship Committee,
presented the S200 tuition
scholarship to Barbara
Covington, a sophomore math
major from Bennettsville, S. C.
The scholarship was
established last spring to be
awarded annually to an
outstanding dormitory student
in honor of Miss White.
To be eligible for the
scholarship, a student must
have an academic average of
2.5 and submit an essay about
her goals and what she expects
from East Carolina.

campus.
The structural frame, Dun
can said, will be steel on piles
with finished materials selected
to produce an atmosphere of

rapidly increasing number of
students who will use the facil

In addition to the numerous
interior space and use prove

The total project is expected
to be financed by self

by the State Legislature.
Kirtley to head
Marine Science
Center , Manteo
The appointment of
geologist David W Kirtley of
Enid, Okla as director of
ECU'S Marine Science Center
at Manteo was announced
today by President Leo
Jenkins.
Jenkins said that the'
new director will be
responsible for the overall
planning and development of
the two-year program, which
has been operating out of
temporary headquarters on
Roanoke Island.
Plans call for construction of
a permanent, well equipped
facility to house the center at
Manteo, and development of
programs in marine science on
graduate and undergraduate
levels.
Kirtley holds a BA degree in
geology from Phillips
University of Enid and an MS
degree in geology from Florida
State. His research for the PhD
dissertation of the reef-building

The Draft
Editor's note: The following are a series of questions and
answers about the new lottery draft system. They were
ptovided by the Pitt County Selective Service Board and are
published in the hope thai they will answer some of your
questions concerning the now system
Q. I am 18 years old and will not be 19 until after Dec. 31,
1969. Do I have a selective service random sequence number?
A. No. Youi random sequence will be determined by the fust
drawing held aftei you become 19.
Q. Once I receive a random sequence number, will this number
change from year-to year as new drawings are held?
A. No.
Q. I am 20 years of age, currently deferred in Class II A. My
deferment will terminate in June 1970. What will be my
liability after the termination of my deferment?
A. If you are placed in I A and found to be acceptable foi
military service, you will be placed at the top of the available
list, provided your number was reached while you ere
deferred. If your number was not reached while you were
deferred, you will be placed in a lower priority group, whether
you were deferred until June 1970 or foi the entire year.
Q. I am a 22 year old student classified IIS. Because of my
high random sequence number, I wish to be classified in I-A
rather than IIS. How can I get a I A classification?
A. You will remain in IIS as long as the reason foi your
deferment exists. Your local board was obligated to classify
you in IIS, since this was the lowest classification for which
you qualified. However, if your local board receives evidence
from your school that you have ceased to be a satisfactory
full-time student because you have withdrawn, graduated,
terminated your enrollment or become a part-time student,
then your locla board will have a basis to reclassify you from
IIS
Q. My random sequence number is 262. I have heard that my
chances of being called for induction during 1970 are slim.
A. There is no way to determine when any registrant in l-A,
who is subject to random selection, will be called for
induction.
Q. I was ordered for induction to report on Dec. 1969. My
local board postponed my induction until Feb. 1970. Does the
lottery affect me?
A. No. Unless there is some reason for your being deferred,
you should expect to report on the date in February that the
local board advises you to report. The lottery dos not affect
the status of any registrant who is ordered to report for
induction, when the original reportinq date is prior to Jan. h
1970.
Q. Suppose I transfer for induction and the board I transfer to
orders me to report in Jan. 1970.
A. Your case is just like that of a postponed registrant You

(continued from page 2)
II be expected to report for induction as ordered by the
transfer board.
vhat effect does the random selection method have on
deferments?
a Local board deferment policies are not affected by the
-ndom sequence method of selecting registrants for
induction.
q When will there be another random sequence drawing?
A Plans call for a drawing to be held during each calender
year, but no date has been set for the drawing to be held
during 1970.
Q Has the random selection system caused any changes to be
made in classification regulations, policies and procedures?
A. No.
Q I am 19 years old and in l-A. If I stay in l-A all of 1970 and
my random sequence number is not reached during 1970, how
will it affect me?
A Whether you are in l-A or in some deferred classification, if
your number is not reached you will be placed in a lower
iniority category.
Q. I have just been placed in Class l-A, but will be 26 years of
age in Mar. 1970. If I request personal apperance and appeal,
wiil I still be subject to induction if I reach age 26 before my
appeal is settled?
A. Yes, if your random sequence number is reached before
ou become 26 years old. No, if your random sequence
number is not reached prior to your 26th birthday.
Q I have a I l-A classification which terminates in Aug. 1970. I
will be 26 years old in May 1970. What happens to me when
my occupational deferment terminates?
A You will be placed in a lower category whether or not your
lumber is reached, and you would be called only if policy
changed.

'failure of leadership
by President Nixon
WASHINGTON (AP)
Former Secretary of Welfare
John W. Gardner declared
Tuesday that "failure of
leadership" by President Nixon
and lethargy in Congress are
creating a national mood of
inaction on urgent problems.
'We know what our
problems are, but we seem
mcanable of summoning our
will and resources to act said
Gardner, now chairman of the
Urban Action Council. . .We
are seized by a kind of
Paralysis of the will. It is like a
waking nightmare
In a speech for a National
PrRss Club Luncheon, Gardner
had criticism and suggestions
for most segments of U.S. life.
Nixon's first and greatest
urgent task, Gardner said, is to
end the war and in the long run
cope with the threat of nuclear
warfare.
He said Nixon's recent
decision to eliminate chemical
and biological weapons from
the U.S. arsenal "was
encouraging
But on the domestic front,
Gdner said, "the President
must say more explicitly-and
w,tr greater urgencywhat he
conceives to bo an appropriate
strategy for dealing with the
dilemmas of the cities, with
equality of opportunity, with
the enviroment and with other
problems that are wracking the
nation Gardner said.
"Not only must he propose
social programs adequate to
our need, but when the
legislation goes to Congress he
must fight as hard for it as he
fought for the antiballistic
missle and Judge Clement F.
Haynsworth's nomination to
the Supreme Court
As for Congress, Gardner
said, "few institutions in our
national life are as gravely in
need of renewal He said this
first requires "measures to
abolish the seniority system
and to curb the abuse of power
by entrenched committee
chairmen.
"Congress must also put an
end to the hypocrisy of
tolerating grave conflicts of
interest among its own
members while attacking the
faults of others Gardner said.
"It should pass a conflict of
interest statute with teeth in
it
Tobacco could be illegal
EAST LANSING, Mich.
(AP) - Tobacco probably
would be illegal if it was just
being introduced to our culture
today, the director of Harvard
University's Health Service said
at a drug seminar Monday.
But Dr. Dana Farnsworth
says cigarettes, like alcohol, are
tied firmly into the economy.
Including alcohol and
tobacco in his definition of
drugs, Farnsworth said drug
abuse involves not only young
people but "housewives who
become dependent on diet pills
or tranquilizers" and "business
and professional men who
cannot get through the day
without two martinis at
lunch
Six hundred persons
attended the Governor's
Conference on Drug Usage and
Abuse. The one-day meeting
was called by Michigan
Governor William Milliken.
Only a few young people
appeared in the group.
"Both young people and
adults are bombarded by
advertising that displays the
magical power of drugs. .
Farnsworth said. "With this
background, it is easy to see
how today's young people
grow up with the general
conviction that drugs can solve
anything, given the right
prescription and the right
dosage
He said the present laws
against the use of marijuana,
"are so severe and so out of
proportion to the harm caused
by marijuana that they have
been widely ignored or
enforced sporadically and
indiscriminately
Jean Paul Smith of Stanford
University's Institute for the
Study of Human Problems said
mandatory penalties for drug
problems are "grotesque and
barbaric
Students ask strike
for academic freedom
The student organization
known as GAP voted to call for
a student strike next Tuesday
in order to protest "the lack of
academic freedom at ECU
said Joe Underwood, GAP
chairman.
Underwood said that the
question of academic freedom
had been raised over the
renewal of the contracts of
certain professors for next
year, particularly that of Dr.
William White, assistant
professor of history. It was
brought out in a meeting last
night that White is an
internationally known scholar
whose credentials are
"spotless
The group plans to secure
the Mall next Tuesday in
support of academic freedom.
After a meeting Tuesday
evening, about 45 students
went to see Dr. Leo W. Jenkins
about the matter. Spokesman
for the group was Robert
Thonen who indicated that the
visit was "to show our
dissatisfaction with the failure
of the school to rehire Dr.
White
Dr. Herbert R. Paschal,
chairman of the History
Department, came at the
request of Jenkins, but no
official reason was offered to
the group. Jenkins thanked the
group for informing him of this
matter.
GAP is also sponsoring a
picket line in downtown
Greenville today to call
attention to City Ordinance
330 under which 27 students
were arrested last Tuesday.
Underwood said last night
that the constitutionality of
the ordinance is being called
into question. He indicated
that the picketers would
request influential businessmen
to speak to the City Council
about "the denial of First
GAP has announced a
meeting for this Sunday
evening at 7 00 p.m. in
the Baptist Student Center.

Another representative of
GAP said that he expected
about 30 students to be
carrying signs today. He
emphasized that the picket was
not a boycott of downtown
merchants, but rather "a plea
for community involvement
JOE UNDERWOOD, NEWLY elected chairman of
GAP, conducts a meeting of what he calls a
loose coalition of students interested in academic
freedom, student rights, and community action.

James Gang combines
rude talents. Silk
offers change of pace
By RANDYCARNAHAN
YER' ALBUM: The James
Gang. (Blues Way BLS-6034)
The James Gang, a group of
three very unqualified
musicians have combined their
talents to record the rudest
album so far this year.
Throughout the entire 47.93
minutes, the listener can
detect the presence ot such
groups as; Cream, Buffalo
Springfield and Jeff Beck.
There is no originality in The
James Gang and the styles that
they try to copy are just too
complicated.
The biggest injustice was on
their reproduction of "Lost
Woman Composed by the
original Yardbirds, "Lost
Woman" is intended to be a
hard blues number with a
quick slashing guitar. The
James Gang managed to
arrange this number into an all
out free-for-all, just proving
their impotance as musicians.
For those of you who are
regretting that you purchased
this album, you might like to
know that The James Gang
makes an outstanding hot
plate.

fnthusiastic about work
peace Corpsmen recruit students
By DONNA PIERCE
"It vtras great! Africa is one
0f the most exciting and
beautiful places in the world
John Callis is enthusiastic
about his two years as a Peace
Corps Volunteer in West
Nigeria.
Callis and Ivan Rosales, two
Peace Corps recruiters , were
on campus last week.
From October 1966 to
October 1968 Callis lived with
a Moslem family in Nigeria,
where he worked as an
agriculture specialist.
But his day was not limited
to farm work. He was faced
with such unusual situations as
trying to figure out a way to
keep a rubber bucket (made
from innertubes) from slipping
down a well during the dry
season.
On day, the car he was
traveling in hit an elderly man
and broke his arm. Since there
were no doctors for 150 miles,
Callis had to play doctor and
set the arm.
Callis, a native of Little
Switzerland, was trained in
June 1966 at the University of
California at San Diego for the
West. Nigeria region. For nine
to 14 hours a day he went
through intensive study of the
Yoruban language, the native
language of Nigeria.
"It is really different from
college language courses he
said. "Only the Yoruban
language is spoken in class. If
you want a glass of water, you
must learn to ask for it in
Yoruban
The rest of his classes were
"cross-culture studies" in
which he learned the beliefs,
customs, and religion of the
Nigerian people.
While in Nigeria, Callis' job
was to help improve the area's
agriculture.
He also helped acquaint the
people with trends in
mechanization in farming. He
emphasized the need for this as

difference in Peace Corps work
and that of an advisor.
"When you live with the
people you become involved
with their problems and the
problems become yours. You
learn how the people believe
their problems should be
solved. This is much more
effective than an outside
analysis he said.
Ivan Rosales, another Peace
Corps recruiter and trainer was
here with Callis.
Rosales, who is also a
journalist, was born in
Nicaragua, and is the youngest
editorialist in South America
today, he said. He is the
director of Vanguardia radio.
Rosales said that the Peace
Corps is a very young
organization and is in the
building process, although it is
no longer a novelty.
"Being in the Peace Corps
requires a great deal of
responsibility and
committment. It offers an
opportunity to people in all
phases of work. No matter
what your work skill, the Peace
Corps has a place for ithe
said.
But it also takes a special
kind of person to work for the
Peace Corps. The pay is low
and you live on the same
economic level as the people in
the community you serve. The
main reward is in helping other
people, he said.
Rosales encourages anyone
interested in joining the Peace
Corps to find out as much as
possible about the Corps, learn
its programs, and contact a
recruiter.

Swimmers face tough meets
By SONNY LEA
Sports Editoi
The Swimming Team takes
to the road this weekend for
what could be the toughest
road trip in its history.
The Pirates travel to
Villanova, Penn. on Saturday
and then drive over to West
Point, N. Y. to battle Army on
Monday.
Coach Ray Scharf calls
Villanova one of the best teams
the Pirates will face this year.
"They finished fifth or sixth
last year in the Eastern
Championships he said.
"They have two West German
Olympians that are really
outstanding
But, the Pirates have an
outstanding swimmer in their
own right. Freestyler Jim
Griffin, who last year as a
freshman was the leading point
producer for the Pirates, has
led the team again this year.
The Pirates own a record of
one win and one loss in dual
meet competition, beating Old
Dominion and losing to N.C.
State this past weekend.
"Griffin is an outstanding
swimmer Scharf said. "We
can always depend on him and
I think he has already
established himself as one of
the outstanding swimmers in
the East.
"Saturday Griffin will go
head-to-head with Olaf Von
Schilling a fine freestyler in his
own right Scharf continued.
'He swam on the West German
Olympic team during 1968. If
Griffin can beat him, he will
really establish himself in the
East
Another swimmer, who
drew praise from the swimming
coach, was freshman Wayne
Norris. "Norns set a freshman
record in the 100 yard
breaststroke against State, an
event he won, and he set
another record in the junior
varsity's meet against Fork
Union Monday
Norris' specialities are the
individual medley and the
breaststroke, but against Fork
Union he set a record in the
400 yard freestyle.
Diver Bob Baird has been
equally outstanding this
season.
"I think our team gave a
noteworthy performance

By SONNY LEA
Sports Editor
Coach Tom Quinn's Pirates
hit the road for the first time
this season when they travel to
the University of Richmond
Saturday.
The Pirates, who finished
second in the Southern
Conference basketball race
behind Davidson in both the
season and tournament, will be
opening their conference
warfare against the Spiders.
Assistant Coach Kirk
Steward scouted the Spiders
Ias1 Monday in Richmond in
then game with East Tennessee
State. Richmond lost 63 57.
Richmond did not have a
very good game on the boards
against East Tennessee
Steward said, "and they had
trouble defensing East
Tennessee
Offensively for the Spiders,
Steward singled out
All Conference guard Ken
Foster, who had a 20 point
night against the Buccanners
(who appear on the Pirates'
schedule later in the season).
Foster, shooting mostly
from the outside, connected on
eight of 17 shots from the
floor and had a perfect night at
the free throw line hitting all
four of his tries.

Hewitt hit five os seven shots

Junior forward Stan

The Spiders hit 21 of 47

The Wrestling team travels
to Durham Thursd. y night to
battle the Duke Blue Devils.
The Pirates, who made an
outstanding showing the North
Carolina Collegiate
Championships last weekend,
will be after their second win
against one loss.
Last season, the Pirates
handled the Blue Devils easily
in Minges Coliseum but coach
John Welborn is cautious in
looking toward this year's
match.
The Pirate grapplers have
three injured wrestlers and the
Blue Devils have been much
improved over last year by the
addition of some outstanding
freshmen wrestlers.

Dr. White-To be,
or not to be
Thursday, December 11, 1969, Fountainhead, Page 11
William White of the
History Department is one of
the few scho I ars of
international repute at ECU.
His skill and competence have
marked him as one of the most
capable professors at this
institution.
A professor should have
three major obligations to his
profession: competence as a
teacher; ability to do extensive
esearch and publishing in his
r.
field; and the capability of
making favorable contributions
to the reputation of his
institution.
White has performed all of
these tasks with a particularly
high degree of skill. His classes
are among the very best at this
university. His record of
publication compares favorably
with those of the best scholars
,n the nation. Ovei the past
yeai alone, he has published or
had accepted foi publication
three major items including a
textbook on ancient oriental
his I oi y for the Oxford
University Press and more
ti m 1,000 other articles, in
addition to signing contracts
foi two additional books.
Publication has not been his
only superlative performance.
During the past year, he has
received two significant grants
foi research and lecturing
abroad in Israel and, this
, oining spi1 I. ' n Japan.
; ,(! he has lectured at
u nversities in Amsterdam and
vntwerp, and to groups at
three othei foreign universities.
iuch a man brings great
wilt to both his profession
and this university. This was
his second year here; after the
mmg year, he could
; onably have anticipated
being raised to the rank of
assoi late professor with tenure.
This was not to happen. On
Fuesday, Dec. 9, Dr. White was
fired by ECU. No reason was
given; in the the inimitable skill
of the administration, he was
merely notified that his
presence was no longer needed
; .Hid that no contract
ould be made with him for
thi coming year.
Such an action appears to be
incomprehensible. No reason
was given for his dismissal
quite probably because no
rational reason existed.
Jealousy, pique, spite, a
personality clash, possibly; but
11 valid objection based on his
Professional performance
OES NOT EXIST.
Whatever the cause, real or
imagi'iary, for his dismissal, the
iTost disgraceful aspect of the
whole affair is the manner in
wn'ch the dismissal was
tendered. No notice was given
that his performance was in
any way unsatisfactory, or that
corrective action was required;
he was simply mishandled in a
hl9hly arbitrary and unjust
manner.
Granted that his method of
teachmg Was often
unorthodox; nevertheless, it
was nghly effective. His
')rofessional competence
obedience to the directives of
1IS superiors, and personal and
moral conduct are beyond
reproach. Such a man deserves
far better from this university.
One reform in the procedure
of contract review is obviously
required. Whenever a professor
is being considered for
dismissal, he should be notified
that such action is pending,
and be allowed a hearing,
either open or closed, at his
discretion, before those
individuals who will rule on his
retention or dismissal. At such
d hearing, the reason for his
proposed dismissal should be
explicitly presented, and he
should be allowed to present
his position. Moreover, he
should have the option of
appealing a dismissal ordered
by the administration to the
Faculty Senate.
Such a matter is of great
importance. In this regard, the
question of tenure is of
secondary significance to both
professional and personal
courtesy and the reputation of
the university.
Accordingly, it is considered
that the Univeristy could best
rectify the situation by
forwarding the question of Dr.
White's retention or dismissal
to the Faculty Senate for their
consideration, thereby
allowing his case to be judged
by a full panel of his peers.

The forum
Dear Editor:
After reading your article
concerning the continuance of
a reading day, or days, I feel
inclined to agree with you 100
pei cent.
I, for one, am proud of this
school and its achievements in
the past few years. We are
growing, but are we to grow
only in added curriculum, new
buildings, and new faculty7
Are we not to grow in
understanding between faculty
and students7 Surely the
administration understands the
potential. The student should
be educated and given every
possible chance to learn, not
lead around under the iron fist
of the administration.
If this priviledge is denied it
will not be long before the
student on a whole has
forgotten. He would rather
forget than react. But the day
will come when ECU will no
longer sleep. It will react as
other schools have reacted. I
do not consider this a blessing
but if the student voice IS not
heard now, the time may come
when he screams over an issue
not quite as easy to settle.
The time to build for
understanding is now. I don't
care how many new buildings
are raised on campus, or how
many more professors are
hired, East Carolina University
will only be a name until there
is a workable understanding
between the students and the
faculty.
Robert Alan Robinson
Dear Editor:
On the evening of Dec. 7, a
number of people attended a
panel discussion entitled
"Management of Resources
Although many good points
were made by the various panel
members, the highlights of the
entire session were the
comments made by Edward
Standfield, a representative of
the federally supported Eastern
North Carolina Regional
Development Institute located
on campus.
Standfield left no doubt as
to what the future held for this
"underdeveloped" portion of
the state. At the end of his
summation, one had to simply
close his eyes to visualize the
progressive Eastern North
Carolina.
Industry, industry,
industry we would be the
industrial center of the world.
Like the proverbial chicken on
every table, there would be
countless jobs for everyone.
Virtually everyone would have
money to burn.
And just where would all
these industries locate? This
would be easily solved by
draining our unsightly,
unprofitable swamps and
marshes, and by leveling our
unproductive forests.
Tall trees would be replaced
by slabs of concrete and the
superstructure of industrial
complexes. Eyesores such as
swamps and marshes would be
drained and turned into truck
farm- (that is, what wouldn't
be used by the industries).
But wait, more to come.
Before we judge this group too
harshly, before we accuse them
of being only profit oriented,
before we start using words
such as exploit, etclet us add
something about their
recreational plans.
Between the truck farms and
industrial sites would be
campgrounds-very carefully
planned for those who wanted
to communicate with nature.
Each Campground would be
carefully planned to give an
uncanny illusion of unspoiled
wilderness complete with hot
and cold running water and
sewage hookup.
Down the unprofitable Tar
River, which would be dreged
to a navigable depth, would
float party barges and grtat
stern wheelers on which bands
will play and people will frolic.
Some misinformed soul
suggested that draining the
swamps and marshes might fill
the rivers with silt. But,
perhaps the knowlegable Mr.
Standfield has in mind a new
type of boat, one which
doesn't need water but instead
requires a river of mud and
industrial ooze.
Let us not sell the
Redevelopment Institute short
until we see their solution. It is
sure to be a solution which
pleases because this seems to
be their aim; to please
everyone no matter how many
times they have to contradict
existing policies.
Standfield, no one questions
the intent of you and your
Institute. No one intends to fill
the sky and waters with
pollution. No one intends to
erode away the lands and cover
the vegetation with
inse:ticides. Yet, year after
year, these atrosities occur
with increasing frequency.
We also believe in progress,
but believe your price is not
only too high but unnecessary.
You have at your fingertips
a whole array of competent
scientist, not only at this
university, but throughout the
state. These are people who are
not only available but very
willing to assist you and yo r
group. Why not make a sine e
attempt to avoid problems nr
rather than try to solve tnem
later. Diana Crumpler

Dear Editor:
In their never-ending drive
to cut corners and to reduce
the quality of food and service
in the campus cafeteria, the
AHA Slater Services have now
stooped to an unprecedented
low.
Instead of raising the price
on scrambled eggs (as they
have with almost everything
else), they devised an ingenious
scheme of cutting the amount
you receive in half. Now you
only receive only half a
scrambled egg, thereby
necessitating the purchase ot
two "eggs" in order t receive
the amount formerly obtained
with one purchase.
By this dastardly deed, they
have perpetrated a scathing
injustice upon us. I urge all of
you to boycott scrambled eggs!

SGA should act on
student arrests
The proper concern of the Student Government
Association is anything that effect:i ,e student body
That is why it is imperative that the SGA Legislature
should take some action with regard to the arrest of
27 students the last week. . crfl
As a body that is concerned with law, the bbA
should be able to recognize the ultimate violation of
the rights of not only students, but of all residents of
the Greenville area.
The city council's blatant violation of the
Constitution of the United States cries out for
condemnation from any and all people that know
about it.
We wil admit that whatever action the SGA takes
will not, in the final analysis, carry much weight. Bui
as future leaders of this country the members of the
Legislature have a moral obligation to make known
their stand on this issue.
ECU abroad lauded
The establishment of an overseas campus tor ECU
represents another advancement in educational
opportunites available to students here. Indeed, ECU
now becomes the only school in this state to offer a
program of this type.
The uniqueness of the overseas campus is that it
will not be affiliated with any foreign university. It
will simply be located on a site overlooking the Rhine
River with students living and studying in the same
quarters.
Dr. Hans Indorf of the Political Science
Department deserves much thanks and credit for the
organization and institution of this program. More of
these educational innovations are needed if ECU is to
develop into a full-fledged university.
Streets aren't safe
We fell that students should be warned about
walking on the city streets in Greenville. The
university has recommended that women students
walk in groups or pairs on or off the campus.
But, seeing that the Greenville town fathers would
constitute walking in groups or pairs as a march, all
due precaution must be used.
Monday night, a 20-year-old Greenville man was
assaulted on Cotanche Street by two men who
jumped from a Corvet Stingray. The assailants did not
steal anything from the youth. They just simply
assaulted him for no apparent reason. The youth said
he had never seen his assailents before.
Maybe the Greenville police department should
reassess their duties. Instead of arresting 27 peaceful
protestors, maybe, just maybe, they should try to
clean up the violence in this town.
Of course, the Greenville police could do a lot of
beneficial things they don't presently do. But, we
understand that they can't do everything. Besides,
what possibly could be more important than arresting
peaceful protestors?
Hum. This one stays, this one goes, this one stays, this one goes

that the Union be responsible
for selecting school
entertainment. In that same
issue were two opposing
articles, the first of which was
an editoral by Chip Callaway,
editor of the paper and
chairman of the SGA Fine Arts
Committee. Callaway began by
saying that "the Union recruits
its members by the 'wander in
and you're hired' technique
This is not true.
Committee members do not
just "wander in they arc
interviewed and assigned to the
various committees. They
volunteer their services for the
good of the student body.
What is wrong with that?
If Callaway had taken the
time, he would have found that
the Union committees are both
responsible and responsive to
the student body. Callaway
said that the Union has had no
experience in booking
entertainment, but he seems to
have forgotten that the SGA
committees, newly appointed
each year, have had no
previous experience either.
Further, all bookings would be
made through Dean Alexan
der's office anyway!
Callaway closed his argu-
ment by saying that the Union
just can't afford to pay for
quality entertainment. He neg-
lects to mention that if
$110,000 were not appropri-
ated to the SGA from our acti-
vity fees, it wouldn't have the
money either!
The second article, written
by SGA President John Scho-
f'eld. said that if a student
were dissatisfied with the
entertainment, he could either
join a SGA committee or cast a
dissenting vote. On the
contrary, it js next to
impossible for a student to join
a committee, and an expression
of h.s disapproval at the ballot
box would do nothing since
the committees are not elected
but appointed.
As it stands now, we elect
the SGA, the SGA appoints a
committee chairman, and the
chairman appoints his own
committee members. Thus, the
members owe their position
not to the student body but to
the chairman. On the other
hand, were the Union to select
the entertainment, the
concerned student would need
only to join the popular
entertainment committee in
order to cast his vote for his
preferences. What could be
more democratic?
Finally, in almost nil the
large colleges and universities
across the nation, it is e
Union, rather than the SGA.
