C Juh 8.1970 July 4th celebrated By WALT WHITTEMORE Saturday's Honor America ) was more like a throe-ring us than any old fashioned celebration of Independence Day. To the west again si a Lincoln Memorial backdrop. Billy Graham took time from saving New York to remind us. "God is on our side To the extreme east the Smithsonian Museum calmly honored the state of Arkansas in the 4th Annual American Folklife Festival. And in between Bob Hope remained oblivious to missile-hurling dissidents celebrating their own "Dishonor America Day' proving that the show must go on. Despite the manner in which news services reported this July 4. the Jay was not the celebration of unity Billy Graham and Bob Hope had promised Washington. D.C. That this was so was obvious all day long, from the banner taunting Billy Graham which read, -hour of Decision God OR Country to the boos which echoed whilst the Navy Band played F. Scott Key's famous composition. The day is best characterized as a small-scale representation of the polarization within this country. On the one hand, there was the Billy Graham-Bob Hope production. Their themes were those many people had long ago disavowed. The entertainers tlmse made popular and wealthy in another era and by another generation. And. those persons who mysteriously obtained tickets to the restricted seating area had an aura about them which strongly hinted of the Y.A.F the D.A.R the V.F.W and the American Legion. In short, there was something very "Republican" about the official events. On the other hand, there were the irreverent dissidents intent upon showing their distaste, even contempt, for American institutions. They smoked marijuana on the Washington Monument grounds. They danced nude atop a truck which they had overturned in the reflecting pool. Thousands chanted "One two. three, four, we don't want your fucking war" as Red Skelton tried to recite the Pledge of Allegiance. To many who had come to "Honor America" there was something frightening about these thousands of sacriligeous. long-haired heretics. It was the contrasts which created the air of absurdity Saturd; During the parade oi ' the Lincoln Memiorial. protestors raised clenched fists and gave "the finger" as the Washington Monument provided the scene's background. As mounted police moved on a crowd of dissidents later that day, a boy scout chided. "It's the cavalry to the rescue " Still later that evening, the Navy (Continued on n?oe 10) 'Hello Dolly' currently playing ,j??artfth?tnn8t V a nde reelder's two By JAMES SLAUGHTER One of the most colossally successful musicals in stage history, "Hello. Dolly opens at the East Carolina Summer Theatre Wednesday, July 8. for an eleven-performance run through the 18th. The show that helped elect a President when its title song was amended to "Hello. Lyndon in the first year of its run, continued to draw thronged audiences on Broadway for more than five years after that and to delight theatre-goers from London to Tokyo and Melbourne, to become one of the long-run record-holders ot all time. Based by Michael Stewart on Thornton Wilder's straight faice, "The Matchmaker" and with rousing songs by Jerry Herman. "Hello, Dolly will have Sally-Jane Heit. a Washington D. C. native and one of the most popular performers ever to appear in Greenville, in its central role of the nosey, pushing, meddling, effervescent marriagebroker with a determination to match her most eligible client to herself. PLOT Ken Eliot an actor-director from Richmond, Virginia will play the role of Wandergelder her balky customer, who never has a chance of escape a hay, grain and feed merchant in Yonkers. New York. The time is the 1890's, when a hay and teed store was the equivalent of a filling station. A grouchy tellow who tyrannizes his clerks. Vandergelder has one undeniable virtue in Dollys eyes.

They all keep running into each other and this requires the truant clerks to hide in closets and enter into other hilarious confusions and deceptions in the milliner's shop, in the midst of a big parade, at the magnificent Harmonia Gardens Restaurant, and in a magistrate s court where all are brought to face charges of one sort or another. CONCLUSION It is in the famous restaurant scene that the waiters welcome back their long absent friend. They shake the ratters by singing 'Hello, Dolly to her. as she descends the staircase in bejewelled elegance to make 0I1e oi' the most memorable episodes of American musical In addition to Miss Heit and Eliot as the exuberant matchmaker and the man she means to snare, the large cast will include Anita Carpenter from Washington.

Declaration too radical for most Americans MIAMI (AP) Only one person out of 50 approached on local streets by a reporter agreed to sign a typed copy of the Declaration of Independence. Two called it "commie junk one threatened to call the police and another warned Miami Herald reporter Colin Dangaard: -Be careful who you show that kind ofantigovernment stuff to. buddy A questionnaire, circulated among 300 young adults attending a Youth for Christ gathering showed that 28 per cent thought an excerpt from the Declaration was written by Lenin. The youths, mostly high school seniors, were then asked to describe briefly what sort of perse .i they thought would make such a statement. Among other things, the author of the Declaration was called: "A person oi' communism, someone against our country "A person who does not have any sense of responsibility "A hippie "A red-neck revolutionist "Someone trying to make a change in government probably for his own selfish reasons Next Dangaard typed up the Declaration in petition form, stood all dav long on a sidewalk and asked middle aged passersby to read it and sign it. Only one man agreed and he said it would cost the pollster a quarter for his signature. Comments from those who took the trouble to read the first three paragraphs: "This is the work of a raver' "Somebody ought to tell the FBI about this sort of rubbish "Meaningless "I don't go for religion.

Illusions of today I Funds denied newspaper for rallies By RANDALL MISHOE Baptist Chaplain We masquerade behind many illusions, delaying the acceptance of reality. Three illusions in particular widely deceive us today. The first is the illusion of "province In the Broadway play Fanny, Marius reproaches his father by saying, "You think Marseilles is the center of the earth And his old father retorts, "It is. That is north, that is south; that east, this west. I am here the center Such a narrow perspective has always lurked beneath our petty prejudices of race, class, group, religion or nation. But the pressed and rapid social change within our culture today gives vent to those old prejudices which manefest themselves in an acute provincialism. TENSIONS ERUPT It is no surprise then that class tensions erupt in such confrontations as that one in early May between the construction workers of New York and the "long-hairs "My country (read: group, race, religion, etc.) right or wrong It is difficult in such a polarized context to confess a need for one another. In fact, to do so would be considered a sign of weakness. But the need for one another, for "community is there at the depths of existence, and that need is real. Personal or group independence and superiority as a life style is an illusion and a denial of our humanness. 'BEAUTIFUL LIFE" The second illusion is that of the "beautiful life As much as I am repelled by the Dick Tracy comic strip, I was still intrigued by a quotation depicted on the wall of B.O. Plenty's home: "Lord, deliver me from the Beautiful People Why? Because they live the "beautiful life and that is a mockery of real life. The "beautiful life" is a land of glittering gadgets, financial success, social status, reigning laughter, and idyllic leisure. It is a climate where romance blossoms and all foul odors are eradicated with the proper deodorant. One trying to find that particular Camelot discovers that the journey leads only to the never-never land of an advertising agency. And nowhere is there any place in this illusion for suffering which is all too real in life. Everyone should know that if he has ever cried out. "Why has this happened to me?" PAINFUL LIE Finally, there is the illusion of "living-happily-ever-after It was a grand ending to our childhood stories; it was a painful lie in adolescence when we learned it is not true. It was so painful that we chose to cling to the illusion and still do. There is no greater illusion than this, and our society guards it zealously. We hide death in the back pages of our newspapers, in tranquil "gardens of rest and in the cosmetics of our funeral parlors. We are like Skat, a character in Bergman's ' The Seventh Seal Skat runs away from some friends in a forest where he climbs a tree, only to look down and see Death sawing the trunk. The dialogue runs as follows: Death: I'm sawing down your tree because your time is up. Skat: It won't do. I haven't got time. Death: So you haven't got time? Skat: No, I have my performance. Death: Then it's canceled because of death. Skat: My contract Death: Your contract is terminated. Skat: My children, my family. Death: Shame on you, Skat. Skat: Yes. I'm ashamed. (Death begins to saw again.) Skat: Isn't there any way to get off? Aren't there any special rules for actors? Death: No, not in this case. Skat: No loopholes, no exceptions? (Death saws. The tree creaks.) Skat: Perhaps you'll take a bribe. (Death saws.) Skat: Help! (Death saws.) Skat: Help! Help! (The tree falls. The forest becomes silent again.) WHAT IS REAL The purpose of these somber reflections upon the illusions of "province the "beautiful life and "living-happily-ever-after" is not to prompt despair at a time when there is too much of that already. The purpose is simply to raise the question again of what is real in our lives. Assuming that education does have to do with the liberating and fulfilling of man's potential, it is strange indeed that there is no more place for a discussion of the need for community, the meaning of suffering, and the reality of our lives. That is why it would be most unfortunate if one held on to his illusions while "picking up a trade" in the educational process. By BOB WHITLEY On Wednesday. July 1. the Fountainhead staff submitted a requisition for money to be used to send two reporters to Atlanta to cover the rock festival and two reporters to Washington, D.C. to cover the Rally for America and the Pot Festival. It should be pointed out that they were requisitioning money that had already been appropriated to them by the 1969-70 Legislature; however, these requisitions must have the signature and approval of the SGA Treasurer. This is the procedure we now have, regardless of its shortcomings, it is the one which should be adhered to. I personally feel that a publication should be responsible only to the Publications Board and not to the Legislature. This has not been changed yet; however, and the present system is still in existence. D. C. AND ATLANTA SGA Treasurer Steve Sharpe, did not approve the requisition and thus checks were not written for the two trips to Washington and Atlanta. He consulted both Phil Dixon, the SGA Vice-President. and me about the matter, and we both felt at that time that the requisition should not have been approved. Later I learned that two staff members of the Fountainhead were personally financing the two trips. I talked with them and the Executive Council of the SGA and decided that we should meet on Monday, July 6. to discuss the matter further. It was decided at the meeting that the Executive Council favored the approval of a requisition that would pay for the gas and food expenses of one reporter to the Washington Rally for America. We further decided that there would be no appropriations for the Atlanta trip. The reasons for the Executives Council's decision are as follows: First, there were three members of the Fountainhead staff that were already planning to go to Atlanta and it would make much more sense to pay these students by copy inch for their stories when they returned rather than paying to send two more reporters. Secondly, we felt that the two rallies in Atlanta and Washington would be covered adequately by national presses and that the students of East Carolina could benefit enough from these releases. Thirdly, we felt that not enough students at East Carolina would be interested enough in the two rallies to warrant sending two on-the-spot reporters. Fourthly, we felt that the money the Fountainhead was planning to use for the trips could be spent more wisely on such things as allowing more copy in the newspaper. Fifthly, although we wish to improve and expand our newspaper as much as possible (as evidenced by our approval of sending a reporter to the Washington Rally) we feel like the scope of our campus newspaper is not wide enough to cover such national events by on-the-spot reporters. Since the Legislature of the SGA does not exist during the summer, the Executive Council assumes complete responsibility for this decision. I shall report in the fall to the Legislature of the decision and the reasons behind it. RESPONSIBILITY Perhaps the most important reason that I cannot approve the spending of this money goes beyond the tangible ones mentioned above. Along with the honor and prestigue (sic) inherited by the office of SGA President, I have also inherited a great amount of responsibility.Your Student Government Association spends close to $400,000 of your money through your student activity fees. I feel that we should be accountable for every cent of this money and furthermore that the spending of this money to send four reporters to the two rallies mentioned above would not be in the interest of the majority of the students of East Carolina. I hope those that disagree with me and the Executive Council on this decision will understand our reasons and understand even more our responsibility. South Carolina poor face cut WASHINGTON (AP) Unless Congress acts quickly to meet an impending funding crisis, thousands of South Carolina poor people may face a sharp cutback in food stamp allotments. An emergency authorization for a $160 million appropriation was passed by Congress last summer, but it expires June 30, with the end of the fiscal year. The 1970-71 appropriation of $1.2 billion for food stamps is bottled up in the House paper. The State, "the food Agriculture Committee which stamp program will be ftw, no signs of reporting the bankjupted ? o- bill any time soon Without House passage of the food stamp bill by the end of the month, the program would revert to its former $170 million level for the remaining six months this year. Sen. George McGovern, D-S.D chairman of the Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs told a Columbia by the end of August' relief is found. If Congress fails to act on the pending appropriation for food stamps, it could adopt an emergency measure that would permit the Department of Agriculture to spend food stamp money at the $1.2 billion rate on a month-to-month basis until authorization is adopted.

Any resemblance to persons living or dead is your own fault. It was the biggest scandal of the year, bigger than the capture of Dr. Thanbed, who had the gall to check out half the books in the Mathematics section of the university library and carry them out in his briefcase. Ridicule. Ridicule! The veins in Swindle Wiley's neck jerked convulsively as his chin bobbed up and down. His palms were shaking again. Goddammit! He drew himself up to his full height, straining onto the balls of his feet "Thief he shouted, realizing that his voice was cracking. "Thief he repeated in a resonant soprano. "1 don't believe youi story! You weren't borrowing those books for an article on book theft for your feature-writing class. Oh noooo you were stealing those books, and you know it Swindle Wiley brought his fist down hard on the top of his desk. He winced as his hand bounced off a paperweight "No one steals 86 books from my library and hides them in the first-floor girls' bathroom. No one gets away with that He brushed aside her objection: "Certainly you were stealing them! Why if Mrs. Crumley hadn't tripped over them on the way to on the way to uh. if Mrs. Crumley hadn't found them you'd have gotten away "You're part of a conspiiacy. You're probably working for the News and Observer. I know what your purpose in doing this was he added conspiritorially, "It was to make us look like a bunch of fools "Why you probably started that joke that my book didn't make its second edition because the xeroxing equipment in the library broke down His white moustache bristled crisply against his burgandy cheeks. "And the one that the library had to close because BOTH of its books were checked out "And that professor of yours he smiled knowingly. "he s in o i it too. He's probably told your whole class to steal all the books from my library "He won't get away with it. I'll fix him. I'll have his pay stopped. I'll pull his books off the shelves. I'll he shook his fist menacingly. "And any pointy-headed, liberal faculty member that encourages such a thing WILL BE fired. Anybody that says our library's inadequate. he caught himself going too far and stopped in mid-sentence. "Now get out he snapped. "And tell your friends that they can't get away with it His last words were cut short when his heavy office door with the words "University Librarian" in gold print on it swung shu You ought to see a psychiatrist he shouted to the door. Wiley slumped in his chair and began thumbing through an enormous pile of newspaper clippings on the left side of his desk. "The N.C. Press Views the Ku Klux Klan 1966-70" he said absent-mindedly to himself. His intercom buzzed. "Mr. Wiley his secretary said. "That Dr. North of the English Department the one you don't like he's trying to use the faculty xeroxing machine again "Stop him Wiley shouted, his neck bulging with anger, as he leaped from his chair and stormed out the door "Stop him Currence dismissal evokes student concern By DAVID OVERMAN Is it safe for an East Carolina student to participate in a n o n - v i o 1 e n t a n t i - w a r demonstration? Just how much academic freedom do we as students have? Can one speak out against the administration without fear of repercussion? Ben Currence. junior chemistry major and a long time leader of the "anti-war" 'anti-oppression" movement at ECU must be asking himself these questions and many more these days. Two days after his participation in the May 6 demonstration against the Cambodian invasion and the Kent State. Jackson State "massacre he received a letter from Dr. Albert Conley, Director of the North Carolina Leadership Fellows and ECU business professor, informing him of his dismissal from the leadership training program of which he had been a member since Winter quarter of his freshman year. When questioned about Currcnce's dismissal. Conley replied that he was "actually doing Ben a favor" and that "Ben really didn't lose too much INTERVIEW The text of the letter implies that the blame for Currcnce's dismissal rests on the shoulders of "the group which has accepted you as their leader However, no specific group was mentioned. In an interview with the fountainhead. Currence stated that the only activist group with which he is associated is SOULS, which had no part in the May 6 demonstration. although he is an ardent supporter of CAP. The following is a partial text ol the interview conducted June 25 at Currence's home in Greenville. Fountainhead: What was your initial reaction upon discovering that you had been dismissed from the Richardson Foundation program9 Currence" At first I thought it was a mistake that could be straightened out. but when 1 found out he (Conley) wasn't going to give any more reason than what was in the letter 1 just said "Cram it DECISION Fountainhead: This was not the First demonstration in which you had been a part, was it? Currence: No. but this was the first time 1 had ever criticized Jenkins and the administration on TV in such a situation with all those people out there. Fountainhead: Do you think Conley is personally responsible for the decision to remove you from the program? Currence: Conley didn't do it on his own. He was under pressure from someone else. Fountainhead: Who7 Currence: 1 can't tell you that, but it's not like Conley to do something like that. Eve been in demonstrations before and nothing happened, so Em led to believe that he was pushed a little bit ALL'NIGGERS" Fountainhead: By the higher ups in the administration0 Currence: No comment. All I can say is that it's the same kind 0f people who are fucking over everyone else who is trying to change our society, like the Panthers. Chicago 8 etc. 1 could get into a long rap about repression, but you know all about that. Fountainhead: Did race have anything to do with it? Currence: No. not this time. just general intimidation of activists and radicals. We re all "niggers-to them anyway. Fountainhead: l? me administration trying to get rid of activists at ECU0 Currence: If they could do 11 legally and ethically they would. a?d sometimes illegally and unethically.

Page 9 tures Woodstock few times, but then another festival offical some non-biker guy comes up and cools it down a little and the guy they were beating gets away. I don't know what happened to him. Then the bikers started joking and laughing and talking real loud about how this is what they came for. to beat asses, and how they were willing to take on everybody at the festival, and how they'd faced worse odds before and won out This particular incident happened before the festival was made free, and things were "really tense and "the crowd was scared of the bikers, sure, but they wanted to get in. If the gates hadn't of been opened, things would have gotten pretty bloody the observer continued. Whose fault was it? "The bikers can't be blamed he said. "Their solution to a pioblem is to pound it into the ground. Everyone knows this. Bikers aren't pigs. They're not cops. They don't like cops anymore than we do the observer concluded. Why the bikers were hired hasn't been answered satisfactorily. Bikers usually show up at festivals, and there usually isn't any trouble. There was at Altamont when the Hells Angels were hired as security. There could have been trouble at Atlanta. It seems rather contradictory to promote freedom on the one hand, and then try and impose order by invoking fear. Indeed, it seems that the festival promoters were more interested in imposing order than in promoting freedom. All done, of course, in hip jargon. Steve Kapelow was asked why people like Jerry Rubin and Abbie Hoffman were not invited to the festival. "I understand why they are militant. I understand the frustration they feel towards straight society, but what they are saying is to tear down everything. That's negative. What we want is positive action. We want all the energy created here to be used constructively to build something SECURITY FORCE It all sounds good, but what Mr. Kapelow was actually doing was threatening the audience with his security force, trying to intimidate them into paying to see the bands, and then keeping certain segments of the hip community from being able to speak up. If the festival had not been made free, the consequences of these actions would have been worse than Altamont. But the festival was made free, and was a success because of the people, inspite of all the incredible hassles. The almost unbearable heat, the threat of bikers, the concert delays, the mediocre sound system, the dust and dirt and overflowing toilets, and the hostile inhabitants was enough to make this the biggest disaster ot the hip movement. The fact that it wasn't disastrous but successful is proot that an idyllic setting such as that at Woodstock, is not an absolute necessity tor a successful festival. REVOLUTIONARY SCENE "This is the most revolutionary scene in America gurgled one enthusiastic- chick from Washington, D.C. Well, yes and no. The scene was "revolutionary in a cultural way. The people got together because they loved the music. Would halt a million people have traveled to Byron, Georgia to hear hip political speakers preach anti-establishment doctrine for three days? The hip movement has become hopelessly splintered. The music is about the only thing left that can bring the people together. At least we have the music. COMPARISON Jimi Hendrix, Mountain, Chambers Brothers, Allman Brothers, Johnny Winter, Grand Funk Raihoad, and B. B. King to name a few, were there. Jethro Tull and Ginger Baker cancelled their appearance. At a festival, all the bands must be at their best musically. One big name follows another, and because the audience has an opportunity to compare one against another, those that do not perform well will loose touch with the audience. Consequently, the music at Atlanta was of very high quality. In particular B. B. King did an incredible blues set. Jimi Hendrix ran through a set of his old tunes, apparently intent upon proving he was a master guitar player. He proved it but his singing was not up to usual standards. THUNDERSTORM The Allman Brothers played during a thunderstorm Friday night. When I asked them after their set if the storm bothered them, one of the Brothers said, "Yah - sure did. People were screaming at us to stop and the lightening was all around, but we had to finish. We thought we had to, anyway It was fortunate they did. Their continued playing helped calm down the audience, preventing what again might have turned into disaster. Last year, an unknown group called Grand Funk Railroad made an appearance at Atlanta. They have since become a big name in rock, and attribute much of their success to the people at Atlanta's festival last year. This year, a virtually unknown English group called Mott the Hoople appeared on stage late Sunday afternoon. It was probably the worst possible time to appear. The audience had already heard two and one half days of music. The well known bands would not be on until after sundown and most of the people were milling around talking to one another, trying to escape the heat, and only listening to the music with partial interest. Before Mott the Hoople was half way through their set. however, the audience was standing up, crowding the stage and moving and clapping to the music. The audience wouldn't let them go The stage announcer said there wasn't time for an encore, that Spirit and Johnny Winter were coming up, but the crowd kept on screaming for more. They got what they wanted, and I think that the people of Atlanta have "discovered" another big rock The most humorous aspect of the three day festival was the local people who rode out to the festival site to gawk at the hippies from a distance, of course, and with car windows rolled up. Their most popular pastime seemed to be looking at the nude bathers, and although they could be heard to be muttering "disgusting under their breath it should be noted that they didn't turn away from the "disgusting" sight, but kept their eyes glued on the subject matter at hand.

Page 13 MMCP stimulates new approach to music The School of Music recently concluded a two week workshop in conjunction with the federally supported Manhattanville Music- Curriculum Project (MMCP). The workshop was highlighted by a public performance of original compositions Thursday. According to Dr. Ralph E. Verrastro, faculty member and coordinator of the workshop, "MMCP is not a method of teaching, but an idea. The emphasis is on music. It is concerned with the creative aspects of the art and the personal fulfillment to be derived therefrom Many of the MMCP strategies are concerned with students acting and behaving in a totally musical way with the view that music is an ever changing art and that "treasured works" are but part of a history which is still being made today. With this in mind, the program is based on discovery. According to Dr. Lionel Nowack. conductor of the workshop and pianist composer and artist-in-residence. At Bennington College "discovery means first hand experience and intrinsic involvement CONTRAST This approach is to be contrasted to present practices which rely on a knowledge of music elements such as notes and time values. The program was started, according to Verrastro. because in the early grades students are i ? ? ? ? ? i 55.1 Cambodian Assessment ? m By JAMES HORD Now that American combat troops have been withdrawn from Cambodia it is time to assess and analyze the results of that "excursion The most immediate effect of the venture is that the war in Indochina has definitely been expanded. Secondly, President Nixon's "Vietnamization" program may suffer some setbacks. And third, the American people have been sharply divided over this issue as over no other one since the Civil War. WIDENED The Indochina war has been widened in the sense that the Viet Cong have been pushed from their sanctuaries near the Vietnamese border to the whole of Cambodia. In other words, the Communists have now been dispersed throughout Cambodia as a result of the invasion of their sanctuaries. Reports by United Press International on June 27 stated that two northeastern Cambodian provinces were now under complete control of the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong. These two provinces comprise approximately one-sixth of Cambodia. Later reports pointed out that the communists had advanced within 10 miles of the capital. Phnom Penh. These reports seem to confirm the hypothesis that as a result of American and South Vietnamese actions the communists arc now intent on occupying Cambodia and using the entire sanctuary. country as a PRESENCE The South Vietnamese Army (ARVN) has also moved into Cambodia and has pledged to "maintain a military presence" there.

By junior high school age, however, music classes are frequently problem classes. At the senior high school, current national estimates indicate that a maximum of 20 per cent participate in organized musical activity. At the present times many students have little real interest in the regular school music program. They cannot be creative, they must merely copy. They spend most of their time learning to understand another person through his music while never understanding themselves. To them, music is often unnecessary and irrelevant, according to Verrastro. The idea behind this program was to help the students to understand themselves and music through composition, performance and critical I, ii MANHATTANVILLE MUSIC CURRICULUM PROJECT workshop is highlighted by a public performance.

President Nixon's Vietnamization program may suffer some setbacks as a result of the South Vietnamese Army now fighting a war on two fronts: the war in Vietnam and the war in Cambodia With this expansion of the war, it will be increasingly difficult for the U. S. Army to train and replace the ill-equiped. ill-disciplined ARVN to a level of competence needed to fight the highly disciplined North Vietnamese Army. At home, the Cambodian operation has divided polarized, and split the American people as no other issue has since the Civil War. From the killings of the four Kent State students to the hawkish cries of the Administration supporters, the Cambodian incursion has raised the tempo of dissent in this country, and the so-called "silent majority" has become not-so-silent. In short, it may be said that the Cambodian adventure ha. had a negative effect on the course of the war and has increased dissent. The war in Indochina has been widened and may soon engulf all of Southeast Asia; the President's war-making powers have been directly challenged by Congress; and the American people have been split down the middle over this issue. All of this does not bode well for the future of a democratic nation. By GERALD ROBERSON Well it has finally happened. Dean Mallory's "divine right" to determine the future of each and every fraternity on campus has shown another sparkling beam of illumination on the Greek scene. Yes. with a few turns of the telephone dial Dean Mallory single-handedly destroyed the plans for one fraternity's summer orientation for the incoming freshmen men. But through some quirk of fate, the ordeal has turned out in favor of the ECU Interfraternity Council as a whole. How our Dean of Men could have known the wisdom of his decision at that time is beyond this writer. Maybe it is only for the "divine" to know. IFC DECISION This single fraternity's plans were immediately brought to the attention of the IFC and the council decided it was favorable to serve beer, after others maliciously condemned that fraternity for planning to have a keg on its own for the freshmen. What befuddles me most is why Craig Souza, the present IFC President turned down a previous approach from a member of the Pan-Hellenic Council for the two Greek organizations to work together this summer and next fall for "rush It might be also noted that the vice-president of the IFC had to call a meeting concerning IFC orientation for freshmen instead of Souza, who didn't even show for the meeting. RENEWED SPIRIT Even so, with a renewed enthusiasm, perhaps the Greek men are about to get off their buttocks and continue to grow in spite of the blunders of a few COL SAHDCRS' PICIPI and despite the single-minded slanders of my colleagues. POLITICS AGAIN North Carolinians are talking politics again. Already, with the off year elections still to go, many are looking forward to the 1972 governor's race: Since Jim Gardner managed to talk himself out of the governor's mansion and into the Greensboro Coliseum, voters are asking themselves who will unite the growing Republican forces. What about the Democrats, after what has been termed by some as a mediocre term so far by Robert Scott. In the next few paragraphs this writer will attempt to make a few predictions with a glimpse at possible strategies. The final primary counts will designate Mel Broughton and Leo Jenkins as the nominees for governor. Broughton on the GOP ticket and Jenkins on a Democratic- Here is how it "might" happen. SWITCH Mel Broughton, son of a former Democratic governor managec' to defeat Jim Holhouser for the Republican nomination after Broughton finally realized he could never gain a Democratic nomination and switched parties. Broughton also carried much of the more conservative Democratic membership and money with him to the Republicans. Across the line on the Democratic side Robert Morgan was the deciding factor in the Jenkins primary victory. Morgan, the past campaign manager for the I. Beverly Lake governor's race will help Jenkins by gaining the support of Lake's faction of the .?.?.???.?.????.?????,? x:vvX$: $ Room! Democratic Party f0r the primary. On the road to victory in the fall of 72 the Terry Sanford Richardson Preyer and Scott factions of the party will gather for the final victory by the Democrats in the fall. After Jenkins is elected governor, Morgan's pay-off comes. Upon resignation of Sam Ervin from the United States Senate Governor Jenkins will appoint Morgan to the senate, thus aiding Morgan when the next senatorial election rolls around. Morgan's appointment will be in fulfillment of a pre-campaign strategy by the Morgan-Jenkins machine. Fountainhead holds survey of freshmen By BECKY NOBLE Members of the Fountainhead staff conducted a random sample survey of the first of six orientation programs for incoming freshmen. The initial question proposed to each interviewee dealt with Nixon's recent "decree" on the abolition of draft deferments. Responses were almost unanimously against the President's decision, while one student said the action was "good Secondly, we asked about the 18-year old vote. Answers ranged from, it came "too late, "rather wait and "indifference to several freshmen who gave a favorable reply. , . We next inquired about tneir opinion of Vice-President Spiw Agnew. This proved to be the most controversial topic 01 (Continued on p9?151 COL SANDfRS ItLin . fcntittkn fried Chehn r Y A its finaer (din'(jood FREE DELIVERY on orders of $10 or more East Fifth Strwt Ext. GREENVILLE, N.C. Phone 752-5184 SGA officials attempt to control news coverage (Continued from page 16) perhaps the Washington story was newsworthy (perhaps because they agreed with the Honor America events), but no money was given to the Atlanta trip. The newspaper was finally allowed to spend about $55 of its own money for the Washington trip, but the Atlanta trip was still considered to be of no value to a college paper, so no money was allowed to be spent. Such events as the two mentioned above, which are reported by Fountainhead reporters from the scene on pages 8-11, are very important to the young of this nation, if to no one else. And the Honor America Rally is certainly of great importance to those who are not among the youth of the country. For the two persons involved in this holdup of funds to judge the importance of such national news events and then to withhold money from a newspaper because they do not agree that the events should be reported in a college paper simply shows the simplicity of their minds. It is also a great infringement on that freedom of the press which all publications should enjoy. When the news that goes into student publications can be manipulated by two people, one a student and the other a faculty adviser, a dangerous situation is incurred. Prior censorship of a publication by the manipulation of funds is a powerful weapon, but one that does not have any place in a democratic system. For the SGA to appropriate funds to the newspaper and then to turn around and withdraw those funds because of the whims of two persons, in an academic community of some 5,000, is stretching control of a free press to absurd limits. It is the purpose of a newspaper to report the news, and this cannot be done if two people outside of the newspaper staff are able to control the content of the material that goes into a paper. No newspaper can exist for long if another body is allowed to censor it. This newspaper is not an exception to that rule. The press must not be manipulated. The facts must be reported and analyzed and then, and only then, can we live up to our slogan: kAnd the truth shall make you free ?:?.?.???' ?.?.?:?.?.?- The Corner Room ? ? ??

Replies ranged from, He's an S.O.B and "the entire administration sucks to three people who said they agreed with him. one of which stated that, "he has good ideas, especially about campus radicals We further inquired about the presence of the United States military forces in Cambodia, and. in general. Southeast Asia. All freshmen interviewed said that the U.S. should get out and "it is none of our business except one girl who said "I wish all the boys would come home SYMPATHETIC Our last question was a query about student radicals and the New Left. Specifically, could they, as freshmen, envision themselves as participants of leftist activities? The majority of those interviewed said that they could "sympathize with some of the actions of radical groups but probably would not care to become an "active participant CONTINUED INTERVIEWS One student, who claimed to have conservative proclivities, was asked if he felt there was a strong communist influence within the rank-and-file of leftist oriented organizations. He responded by claiming that "communism is so deep rooted in America today that it is meaningless to state the obvious These interviews were the result of picking individuals out of crowds and asking them questions. Interview articles of this nature will continue following each Orientation group that comes onto the campus. At the end of Summer School, Fountainhead will compile all the interviews into one column in order to gain a representative sample of student thought. Wednesday. July 8, 1970. Fountainhead.

But now that body- has decided that sending reporters to cover such nationally important events as the smoke-inHonor America (lav in Washington. DC. and the Atlanta Pop Fes ival near Macon. Georgia were not of much ,rn to college students, and thus the Fountainhead should not spend its own money to send reporters to these events. After making this arbitrary value judgment, the SGA- Student Fund Accounting spokesmen notified Fountainhead that it could not spend its money for that purpose. This notification came on Friday just a few hours before the four reporters (two to each destination) were scheduled to leave. This denial of funds could have easily censored any stories Fountainhead could have gotten had the Editor and Business Manager not personally financed the trips The news was therefore gathered anyway. After the return of all four reporters on Monday morning, the SGA Executive Council held a meeting concerning the funds. At that time, they decided that (Continued on page 15) ourruinhead WAYNE B.

Or does it really matter0 Paul Lima Dear Editor: I found your articles concerning the Greek system in your June 22 edition very interesting and must agree with much o what was said. 11"s true that the Greeks must change many of their concepts to tit in with the changing life style and 1 believe most are trying to do just that. After being away from the campus during the past academic year I've returned this summer to find bare feet, long hair bell-bottoms. T-shirts ami beads among Greeks who once dressed strictly "vogue" One year ago I was reading criticisms in your paper about that "vogue" style of dress and now now I read criticism of this new "hip" style I find all this attention towards the Greeks quite amusing especially when most of it is coming from people whose n liberation, or life style, is exactly contradictory to that ol the Greeks If this life style and mode of thinking is so much better that the Greek and the "hip" life can lend to greater things WHY I wondei WHY .h they spend their "hip' time judging the Greeks' One article in that issue particularly struck my funny box It seems Penny Bennett is quite enthused with hei "hip" friends and hei 'hip sell Penny went to great lengths in her Opening sentences to prove to the readers that she is definitely "hip bv throwing out a Dylan hei and a Baez there The plot seemed to thicken when Penny threw a new one at us GREEK FREAK I' seems the Greeks are dressing -freaky' in order to be cool "Not that they would puft any pot or lick any of them acid cubes or bust an heads over politics Penny says. Miss Bennett leads the reader to believe that the Greeks are trying to tie on the coolness the heads have long had and that the only way to do this is by mutating their dress with the money that Daddy gives them (Perhaps Miss Bennett is working her way through college, but I doubt if this is true of all the "hip people is it Miss Bennett) finally we learn that cool could be "espousing the causes of freedom and rights, and caring about the individuality of others Ah yes, Penny caring about the individuality of others lhe freedom and right for anyone to dress as he or she wishes and most ol all their individuality. It seems to me Greeks are individuals with freedom and rights and should be able to dress any way they please without "hip" Penny Bennett or anyone else writing letters about them Remember Penny FRIT DOM AND RIGHTS Since Penny Bennett is the campus dictionary on "cool and "hip I would like to ask her a few questions I wonder if smoking pot and dropping acid and 'busting heads" makes one "hip"?
