Dormitory improvements
are object of petition
Mark Wilson, a freshman, has
initiated a petition to improve
dorm life.
Among the improvements
suggested are the conversion of
two women's dorms to house
men, conversion of two men's
dorms to house women, dispens-
ing with the double standard, a
more liberal dorm visitation
policy and improved telephone,
cooking and building facilities.
The petition also states that
"with these improvements,
dormitory life would be such
that it would be unnecessary to
require students to live in
dorms.
The signed petition will be
given to the SGA to show
student support for their
attempts to improve the dorm
situation. President Jenkins also
backs the SGA's attempts.
Hoping for at least 3,000
signatures. Wilson feels that
"the petition will probably
affect the decision on dormitory
changes
Day students may sign the
petition in the Union lobby
from ?- a.m5p.m. all this week.
Signatures will be solicited
door-to-door in both men's and
women's dorms.

MRC sets up
in tervisita tion
An act passed bv the Men's
Residence Council lias set up
women's visitation in the men's
dorms ever) tu 11 w eeks until the
end o the quartei The nexl
visitation will be Saturday. April
25. with the next one tailing on
VI a 9
The reason given for having
visitation every two weeks in-
stead of every week was fear
that residents of the Hill might
tire of the privilege. It was also
hoped the Women's Residence
Council would set up visitation
in the women's dorms for those
Saturdays that the men's dorms
were closed. This has not yet
been approved.
THANKS GIVEN
A spokesman for the MRC
stated that the men had success-
ol having visitation in the dorms
and it is hoped visitation would
be a regulai occuranee on the
Hill next year.
1 he spokesman also thanked
all those who took part in the
MRC-WRC sponsored field day
held last Saturday. "The re-
sponse and participation were
great he added, "and I
thought everyone there had a
great time
SPONSORS
Manv members of the MRC
speculated that the MRC and
WRC would begin jointly spon-
soring campus activities on a
regular basis if this type of
response accompanied them.
The MRC will hold one more
meeting this quarter. The date
for thai fiuil meeting has not
been set.
fully taken on the responsibility
FROM THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT
SGA President urges
students to support cut
system, housing reforms
There are two petitions circulating on campus that recommend
changes that are very much needed.
One concerns the new cut system, which would put the
responsibility of attending class on the students. Under this
proposal, students would no longer loose quality points for excess
cuts.
The student would, however, be responsible for keeping up with
his work in his courses. 1 urge students who have not already signed
this petition to do so.
The other petition that is circulating concerns the ruling that
forces freshmen and sophomores to live in the dormitories. The
petition presents changes in the rooms that need to be made and if
made would make it quite unnecessary to force the sophomores to
live in the dorms.
I understand that this petition will be presented to the SGA so
that we will have evidence of the students' concerns in this matter.
I hope that everyone, even if not directly affected, will sign this
petition also and give the SGA the support it needs on getting these
changes.
ECU JAZZ ENSEMBLE will perform in Wright Auditorium on April 22.
Union plans mall activities
On Saturday, May 2. (Pirates
Jamboree Weekend), the ECU
Student Union will sponsor a
series of outdoor activities to be
held on and around the mall.

contest, a "bed race" involving
the manual propulsion by no
more than five people of a
vehicle not larger than 4'by 6'
over a course prescribed by the
committee (wheelchairs and
shopping carts are banned).
ART EXHIBIT

A Fountainhead News Analysis
Organization formes
to study urban ills
Early Indians also litter bugs
By LEO W.JENKINS
Because we hear so much
about the problem these days,
we may think that modern
Americans were the world's first
litterbugs. But two ECU anthro-
pologists are making studies of
litterbugs who roamed the Tar
Heel State's coastal area nearly
one thousand years ago.
LITTERBUGS
The litterbugs under investi-
gat on were the Indians who
populated what is now North
Carolina before Europeans be-
gan regular trips to the new
world.
Dr. Werner Stenzel and Dr
Peter H. Kunkel of the Depart-
ment of Sociology and Anthro-
pology have identified a spot at
the junction of St. Clair Creek
and the Pamlico River near
Bath, N.C. as a sort of summer
home for weary Indian travelers.
STUDIES
The land on which the studies
are being carried out belongs to
John Whalen who cooperated
with the anthropologists and
students by allowing them the
freedom to explore the area.
The location has been designat-
ed "Whalen Site
TEMPORARY CAMPS
Here, according to the
anthropologists, groups of
Indians may have established
temporary camps and spent
several days making use of a
catch-your-own seafood dining
area.
After a few days of fishing
and feasting, they would move
on to another location, leaving
behind shells, bones, arrow
heads and other litter to be
excavated and identified by our
anthropologists hundreds of
years later.
INDIANS
Fortunately for us, the
Indians who traveled through
this area were terrible litterbugs.
However, they left their litter
over a broad area, and it takes
weeks, even months, to locate
all of it and make positive
identifications.
But once this has been done,
we will know a great deal about
the habits and customs of their
society.
By CHIPPER LINVILLE
and HARRY LANGE
Pollution, blight, poverty,
and social injustice problems?
The Student Planning Associ-
ation (SOAN) has been organ-
ized to help inform, educate,
and involve all interested stu-
dents with these and other ur-
ban and regional planning prob-
lems.
Realizing the urgent needs of
our modern urbanized world,
we feel that an association uni-
ted with a common understand-
ing of the demands that face us
today in our cities, will provide
an educational experience neces-
sary to comprehend and solve
contemporary urban problems.
PURPOSE
To "span" is to bridge points,
and that is our purpose-to con-
nect and discuss all student
ideas about planning techniques
and to relate social and environ-
mental problems with the views
of visiting speakers of the urban
planning profession.
All members of the organiza-
tion are currently Urban and
Regional Planning minors, but
we hope to involve students in
others fields now and in the
future.
URBAN MINOR
The Geography Department
has offered a minor in Urban
and Regional Planning since
1964, but only in the last two
years under the direction of
Wilham W. Hankins, has the
program expanded to offer
varied courses in contemporary
urban problems.
Hankins and the planningstu
dents are stiving to expand the
Urban and Regional Plannin;
minor into a major within tfo
near future.
Some of the courses offered
in the past have been: urte.
planning, regional planning, ur-
ban form, planning techniques,
planning legislation and site de-
sign.
NEW COURSES
New courses proposed tor
next year are: environments
planning, which involves astu)
of air. water, and noise p?
tion in our environment, tj
planning theory, which invoft
a study of the planning proc?
decision making, social science
theories related to planning,
social policy planning.

OTHER SUGGESTIONS
There are many other
suggestions for individual action
in many books and magazines.
One such book is The
Environmental Han dbook.
Some of the suggestions made in
it are:
Mail in any prepaid envelopes
you get in advertisements for
ecologically undesirable
products. Each one sent in costs
the polluter about seven cents
of his profits.
When you go to the
supermarket for milk, take an
empty jug with you. At the
check-out stand, pour milk from
the disposable carton to your
jug. give the empty disposable
carton to the checker and
explain your action to him. Or
leave commercial packaging at
the counter, such as the cartons
containing toothpaste.
Many of these suggestions
may sound minor, but if enough
people will join in, they will be

Urban and Regional Planning
Students have attended many
conferences, such as meetings of
?the North Carolina Chapter of
?the American Institute of Plan-

CONFERENCES
These conferences are held to
I exchange ideas in various fields
? of planning. Uow income and
I minority groups are involved to
inform the professional planners
ol their problems.
The Urban and Regional Plan-
I ning minor is also involved in
I Planning Network, a system de-
I signed to increase the quantity
I and quality of communication
I between planning students
across the nation.
This system is based on a set
"f communication devices in-
cluding a quarterly newsletter, a
biannual magazine, and an an-
nual National Conference, all of
which are organized and direct-
ed by urban and regional plan-
ning students.
One of the key concepts of
Planning Network is the pro-
vision that each schx)l elect a
"contact" student to facilitate
the exchange of information
between students and Planning
Network.
STUDENT PLANNING
Morton Congleton served as
the "contact" student this year.
He attended the first National
Planning Network Conference
which was held in Cambridge,
Mass. Johnny Braxton has been
elected the "contact" student
for next year.
To broaden the scope of our
planning program we wish to
involve all students who are
interested in social and environ-
mental problems.
We hope that minority groups
will become interested in our
program which offers possible
solutions to the problems that
confront low income areas and
minority groups.

Byrd estimated that between

By ELDON NELSON
Special to Fountainhead
CBFA is an informal group of
students and faculty at East
Carolina University who feel
that it is necessary to do
something to create awareness
of the environmental problems
in our local community.
Prior to last Christmas there
was a panel discussion at the
Y-Hut which involved the views
of biologists, ecologists,
industry and a representative
from eastern N.C. Regional
Development Institute
concerning development in
eastern N.C.
LACK OF CONCERN
As a result of the discussion,
it was quite apparent that the

which is on our campus and

COORDINATE ACTIVITIES
In January, the Washington
office of Environmental
Teach-In, Inc was set up at the
request of Senator Gaylord
Nelson and Representative Paul
McClosky to coordinate
university and high school
campuses nationwide to hold
activities to create awareness of
local problems as well as those
of the nation.
FOCUS
Earth Day, April 22. was
established as a particular day
on which these activities could
be focused.

By KAREN BLANSFIELD
Human waste and
contamination of our natural
resources is one of the most
serios problems, if not the most
serious, facing the world today.
If something is not done soon,
the world will be unfit to live in
in the not too distant future.
The problem is so vast that
often people don't know where
to begin, and the main question
is, "What can I, one person, do
to help?"
There are many things that
each individual can do. This
month's issue of Mademoiselle
Magazine lists 40 ways in which
the individual can help to
depollute the earth.
DYE POLLUTES
For a start, don't use colored
facial tissues, paper towels or
toilet paper. The paper will
dissolve properly in water, but
the dye lingers on to pollute the
waterways.
Return accumulated coat
hangers to the cleaners; don't
junk them. Boycott a cleaner
who won't accept them.
Don't buy non-returnable,
ufibiodegradable containers.
This summer in such cities as
Denver, Houston, New York
and San Francisco you can
receive cash for used aluminum
cans. If you can't buy
decomposable containers, at
least re-use the non-decompos-
able ones.
FOR SMOKERS
If you smoke filter tip
cigarettes, put them in the
garbage; don't flush them down
the John. They'll ruin plumbing
and clog up pumps at the
sewage treatment plant.
Stop smoking.
Stop littering. NOW.

lary, the Washington
of Environmental
Inc was set up at the
)f Senator Gaylord
d Representative Paui
y to coordinate
and high school
nationwide to hold
o create awareness of
lems as well as those
on.
We quickly became aligned
with this effort, formed a title
CBEA and, initially sponsored
by the Biology Department,
began soliciting support from all
interested individuals in all
departments.
Initial response was light, but
the program had begun.
Now, with campus-wide
attention and with active
supporters in every department,
and with the backing of the
administration, we have
developed a detailed program to
create awareness of
environmental problems in our
community and eastern North
Carolina.
LOCAL EFFORT
This is a local effort involving
local industry, churches, civic
leaders, organizations and
citizens to identify these
problems and develop ideas
toward their solution or
prevention.
Our title encompasses the
term "biologists" in the most
liberal and true senseany one
concerned with life and living
thingsthus all individuals who
are wearing our buttons (our
only monetary source besides
specific donations from
interested industry or
individuals) are members of
CBEA.
Our activities have been
specifically directed towards
developing the Earth Day
program.
PERMANENT CHARTER
Immediately following Earth
Day, there will be an effort to
develop CBEA into a permanent
organization with a permanent
charter with membership from
all departments and local
community.
We have been asked to
consider becoming associated
with ECOS, an active
environmental group at UNC
and will look further into this.
Our functions at that time
will be more definitely outlined
and will include actions for
active, legal efforts to correct or
prevent environmental problems
in our community.

Buy lead-free gasoline, such as
Amoco. (Lead chews up metal,

Don't burn leaves or garbage.

with the permission of
Environmental Action, Inc

Our world dies a little every
time you wash out a batch of
underwear in the bathroom sink
with one of the high phosphate
detergents.
These phosphates are the
chief cause of our present water
pollution problem, according to
a recently completed five-year
study of pollution in Lakes Erie
and Ontario by the
International Joint Commission,
the U.SCanadian water
regulating agency.
INDIVIDUAL EMPHASIS
The phosphates speed up the
growth of algae. The algae in
turn rob the water of oxygen
which fish and plants need to
stay alive.
Only national awareness and
immediate action by every
concerned citizen can stem the
tide of pollution until such time
as detergent formulas are
changed and improved sewage
systems constructed.
Individual efforts must be
directed to switching back to
the old methods of
launderingusing soap flakes or
powders in combination with
water-softening washing soda.
TESTS
According to laundry product
testing by United States
environmental engineers, soap
products and washing soda each
contain less than one percent
phosphates, and when the two
re used together, they produce
a good wash.
OUT NUMBERED
The major hang-up is locating
the soap and soda. Although
both are staples on supermarket
laundry supply shelves, they're
so vastly outnumbered by the
high-phosphate products that it
takes some searching and
reading of package ingredients
to find them.
To further add to the
confusion, those who have
grown up in the detergent
generation do not realize that a
detergent is not a soap.
So check labels and buy only
products that won't pollute our
waters.

Bird's Nest Soup
Have you ever wondered about Won Ton soup or
Bin's Nest soup?
Won Ton is the Chinese
equivalent of ravioli. It
consists of little dumplings
stuffed with pork andor
shrimp and seasonings. These
are cooked in boiling water
and served in hot chicken
consomme, which generally
also contain a small portion
of spinach andor Chinese
cabbage.
If you have wondered
about Bird's Nest soup, it's
probably been about whether
it's really made from birds'
nests.
It really is made from
birds' nests. The nests are
made by swifts on islands in
the South Seas. The edible
part is gelatinous substance
which must be carefully
cleaned. It takes hard work
and is expensive, bat the
results yield a delicate,
distinctive flavor. It is coo ?1
in a chicken broth to make
the soup.

The Fieldcresl Regatta was
held on the Tar Rivei this
weekend with last Carolina
finishing second to Virginia
Commonwealth and nosing out
UNC-Chapel Hill.
The Pirates trailed VCU at
one point h three boat lengths
but put up a strong finish to
lose by only four seconds. The
final time for the 2000-metei
course was 8:15.2 for VCU and
8:1 c.2 for ECU
The race Sunday between
ECU and Chapel Hill was a
different story. The Pirates
rowed the body of the race at a
pace o' 36 strokes per minute
and finished with a time of
8:26.5 compared with 8:45.0
for Chapel Hill, which had cap-
tured an earlier lead.
The Fieldcrest Regatta is
named for Fieldcrest Mills, to
whom the Pirate crew owes its
existence. "They have made a

The pirates moved a step
closer to the Southern Division
championship of the Southern

Richmond scored an unearn-

Ron Hastings started Satur-

He's here now
By SONNY McLAWHORN
Guest Columnist
Editor's note: Sonny McLawhorn is a senior at ECU majoring in
Political Science. For Ira Baker's journalism class, he was
to interview Sonny Randle.
assigned
Picture yourself a young high school football player. You're
sitting in the living room with Mom and Dad and right there in Dad's
favorite chair is Sonny Randle asking your plans for college.
A year ago. you would have almost traded your best girl for his
autograph and now he's trying to convince you to come to ECU to
play football.
Randle is one of those few men who have made it big in
professional football. An 11-year veteran of the National Football
League, he was twice named to the All-Pro team.
Sitting at his desk in Minges Coliseum, Randle described the
highly subjective nature of recruiting promising footballers. "One
school he said, "?might give the prospect a Yoo-Hoo drink and
grilled cheese, while another might offer him a four-year scholar-
ship
Randle is a colorful person. He fits neatly the role of the pro
turned television sportscaster. a position he held for six years in St.
Louis. He is not assertive or boastful like many former athletes who
choose to dwell in the past tense.
This man is strictly future-oriented. He says he and hiscollegues
have recruited 80 percent of the i,blue-chippers" they have sought,
and he promises that ECU will field the best freshman team in the
nation" next year.
The former Virginia star says pro football is leisure compared to
the rigors l college coaching. "Sometimes he says. "I have no
idea what day or what time it is
Randle carried but 178 pounds on his 6'2" frame when he
graduated from college. That alone was enough to frighten most pro
teams away but St. Louis took note of his 9.6 time in the 100-yard
dash and his sticky pass-catching hands.
?
The Cardinals picked him in the 20th round of the 1959 draft. It
proved to be a solid investment. Randle hauled in 60 touchdown
passes in his nine years with the Cardinals and played in the Pro
Bowl four times.
In addition to his work as a sportscaster. Randle devoted much
of his off-seasons to football camps and worked as a running
instructor for the St. Louis baseball team.
He was determined to stay in football when his playing career
ended. Why did he take up coaching? "Because I wanted to see what
it was like on the other side of the projector he said.
Anyone who knows anything about pro football has heard 01
Sonny Randle. But he doesn't like to waste his energy on
reminiscences. He'd rather talk about the future of football at btu.
?I've never been associated with a more dedicated . enthusiastic
group than we have on this team he said.
Randle and McGcc played together at St. Louis. When Mcwe
accepted the head coaching job at ECU. one of his first decision
was to try to hire Randle as an assistant. Randle said he was
impressed by President Leo W. Jenkins' complete dedication to
athletic program. -j
"The finest college football situation in America. He ? ?
?exists at ECU. and Greenville is an excellent place to raise
family v .iev
Randle. his wife and four children live in the Brook
section, overlooking one of the finest golf courses in the area.
Although Randle's love of football is rivaled only by his.am' jj
tor golf, he hasn't found time to tee off. He's too busy working
the football team on spring drills.
Congratulations to basketball coach and Mrs. Tom Quinn on
birth of their second child, Thomas Ray. Jr last week. He is
first son.

exclude Carolyn Franklin.
Her second release, "Chain
Reaction is certainly a com-
bination of all the heart-felt sen-
sations it takes to dig soul.
The sound that has been
achieved by so few, the com-
bination of rhythm and mes-
sage, comes freely from Miss
Franklin.
"Chain Reaction" is a tribute
to those who produced it
(Buzzy Willis and Jim Radcliffe)
and a remembrance of her sister
(Aretha) who reigns as "Queen

INDIVIDUALITY
Carolyn Franklin lends her
very individuality and style to
every cut on the album.
The First band on side one,
"Everybody's Talkin a classic
in its own right, is approached
with the freshness and styling
that only a great artist can give.
"Coin' in Circles" then flows
freely and pleasantly until Miss
Franklin has completed her mes-
sage.
The title tune, "Chain Re-
action awakens the listener to
a voice strong with honest sin-
cerity.
Side two does not falter as
"Put a Little Love in Your
Heart" repeats its own much
-needed message. Gospel and
blues follow in "Don't Wake Me
Up in the Morning. Michael
This is the sound that so closely
resembles her big sister. Aretha.
Still it remains apart from the
"church" sound that would be
expected.
"Right On" is a special mes-
sage to her own people in a big,
moving way. She concludes
"Chain Reaction" with a display
of her versatility in "Shattered
Pride set in Latin-like rhythm
amid strong lyrics.
COMPARISON
Even when compared to the
more accomplished Aretha,
Carolyn Franklin handles herself
extremely well. I have not inten-
tionally tried to correlate
Carolyn's sounds with those of
her sister; however, to ignore
this would be an injustice. She
has excelled in 'Chain
Reaction" and should be given
all due recognition.
CHAIN REACTION
A true comparison must be
made by the individual listener,
but I will say this: if Carolyn.
Franklin's future work is as
good as "Chain Reaction" she
will certainly be in competition
for the title of "Queen of Soul

Joy of a Toy, Kevin Ayers
(Harvest SKAO 421).
The "joy" in Kevin Ayers'
latebt release "Joy of a Toy"
eludes the listener amid fruitless
attempts at correlating rock
poetry to rock music.
This is not to say that there is
no value in Ayers' style or
effort, merely a statement on
overall effect.
"Joy of a Toy" loses itself in
the very uniqueness of presen-
tation. It is a put-on, an attempt
to seduce the listener with pro-
found thoughts sel to music. It
treats the traditional topics of
today's "in" audiences as a
ticket for unwarranted original-
ity-
People want to be free, free

Again and again his verse
echoes the redundant ideas of
?self-emancipation' to bore and
sometimes even to ridicule the
listener. His topics appeal only
to those blind enough to be won
by tricky Figuratures.
Kevin Ayers exhibits an over-
all lack of freshness that is so
vital to modern listeners. "Joy
wagon of rock poets and singers of a Toy" becomes so much
(Paul Simon, John Mayall. John fraud that it eventually sours
Lennon, etc.) to entice the the listener to any good qual-
audience into believing the ities it might have.

that an 18-year-old boy had
blinded himself by pulling his
eyeballs from their sockets. The
boy told an SBI agent that he
had committed the act "because
the Lord told me to do so
There was no outcry against
the teachings of fundamentalist
religions which encourage initi-
ates to respond unquestioningly
to supernatural solicitations. Be-
lievers, in the grip of evanical
frenzy, have been known to
commit acts of self-mutilation
and murder. Yet there is no
demand that fundamentalist re-
ligions be outlawed or that their
practices be curtailed.
RELIGIOUS FERVOR
Admittedly, violent conse-
quences of religious fervor are
rare occurrences, but so then are
violent acts committed under
the influence of marijuana or
hallucinogens. Yet the latter in-
cidents receive front page cover-
age and the former are relegated
to back pages or ommitted.
Sen. Thomas J. Dodd,
D-Conn has gone so far as to
assert that the smoking of mari-
juana the night before the mas-
sacre created the mental state
that caused soldiers of Charlie
Company, 1st Battalion, 21st
Infantry Regiment to commit
wholesale atrocities at the Viet-
namese village of My Lai.
Dodd has gone a long way in
attempting to incorporate his
conclusions in the testimony of
the Senate panel investigating
the incident:
SENATOR DODD
"And 1 think (marijuana
caused this incident). I don't
think American soldiers are
murderers he said.
Dr 4d is attempting to sup-
port his conclusions by a select-
ive survey of evidence that mari-
juana use contributed to mental
disturbances. The testimony so
far has been based on incom-
plete experiments and unsup-
ported conclusions. Contrary
findings have not been intro-
duced.
Specious reasoning about the
effects of drugs is commonplace
among the media. Such reason-
ing as Dodd's is based more on
politics than scientific fact.
It is easier to attribute violent
outbursts to mental or physical
intoxication than it is o exam-
ine the psychological and socio-
logical roots of personality dis-
orders.
The use of drugs and alcohol
merely loosen the users inhibi-
tions; they do not create the
tensions, frustrations and vio-
lent tendencies of the individ-
ual's personality.
The media that published
Dodd's allegations without
analyzing their accuracy are
contributing to public misin-
formation and misunderstand-
ing.
SENSATIONALISM
The publications that sensa-
tionalize unproven effects of
drug use- whether it be mari-
juana, LSD, or the pill betray
the public trust. And although
they will not be criticized by
Spiro Agnew for their malfeas-
ance, irresponsible members of
the media create their own
"credibility gap
The only remedy for this situ-
ation is fair and impartial rep-
orting based on the proportion
and impact of the drug problem
on the public, emphasizing
scientific evidence rather than
political maneuvering.

Dear Editor:
I am writing to express m
disappointment with the Foun-
tainhead. I feel that as a student
newspaper it should include the
views oi all its readers.
1 am a member of the ECL
Young Republican's Club and 1
feel that we are being treated
unfairly in regard to your cover-
age of our activities. I am
referring to our recent accom-
plishment at the convention ot
the North Carolina Confedera-
tion of College Republicans.
We were able to capture two
of the five offices at the State
level. 1 feel this is a most
outstanding achievement, and a
credit to this university .

Dear Editor:
We would like to take the
opportunin to thank the Facul-
ty Senate and the energetic
students of East Carolina High
School for helping to presene
the noble traditions of this
institution oi lower learning.
For another quarter, or more,
the kiddies here will have the
freedom of deciding for them-
selves whether to go to class all
but a few days a quarter, or
whether to have their QP'
deducted ECHS ha alwa s led
ther schools in the never end-
ing battle for truth, justice and
academic freedom.
It is heartening to note that
the kiddies and their nursemaids
prevented a minority of effete.
intellectual snobs from taking
awa our freedom. After all.
unlimited cuts is nothing but a
(. ??'?. nunist plot
Imag ne what would hap-
pei ' unlimited cuts were
Professors could no
longer talk for 0 minutes about
thing because no one would
be there if they did. Kiddies
who have more emergencies
than the present system allows
for would no longer be punished
for circumstances beyond their
control.
Where are all oi you students
who constantly gripe about
compulsory class attendence?
You ma sa you have the
intelligence to decide when to
go to class Don't you have the
mental faculties to write your
name on a petition? Why don't
you put your signature where
your mouth is'1
How main students are there
in this school anyway? If all oi
you who said you had already
signed the petition really did.
you might base helped ECU
take one tiny step out oi the
dark ages.
And faculty. you can con-
tinue to imprison us while you
give meaningless lectures. You
can falsely build up your ego b
talking at a full classroom.
? ki ou ihey are onl
there to keep from loosing all-
?? erful QP's?
This criticism, oi course, is
not directed to those few who
gave -a small fraction of the
support needed. It is aimed at
the do-nothing majority who
don't care enough to help re-
move just one of the many
absurdities of East Carolina
High School.
Mr. and Mrs. D. Buirschmitt
Dear Editor:
I would really appreciate
knowing what the mental make
-up of the students at ECU is.
How can they sit back and let
the administration play with
them like they were a bunch oi
mindless puppets1
If any changes are going to
take place, they are going to
have to take place now, and the
only way to accomplish this is
to present demands to the
administration a . ited stu-
dent body
The administratio; seems to
be more interested ir enlarging
the school physically than mi
expanding it academically. The
academic program is still as
limited in many arcs as it was
before the "great' building
expansion. Doesn't the adminis-
tration realize that buildings
don't make a school1 Obviously
not. , .
Sure we need buildings, bu
we also need qualified and
enthusiastic teachers to m
them. You can tell me that tu
has a great deal of wen-qual.neJ
teachers, but they lack n
enthusiasm needed to instill a
desire in the student to searc
for greater knowledge.
A teacher can drill facts into
a student but if that student
has no desire to learn- all tn
drilling and lecturing wiB be
no avail. .
