Jenkins attacks press
ByBILLSCHELL " im- ?u
By BILLSCHELL
(Staff Writer)
Or Leo W. Jenkins took a definite stand on
Gov Bob Scott's pioposed revamping of the
higher educational system of North Carolina in
a speech to the Political Science Club on
Tuesday.
The ECU President strongly criticized
Raleigh Durham-Chapel Hill area newspaper for
their attacks on HCU. calling for them to
"pinpoint wasteful duplication and document
their charges
THREE PLANS
Jenkins singled out The Raleigh News and
Observer, whose editorials in past months have
accused him ol opposing the "Governor's
plan. Gov Scott, as Jenkins pointed out, has
no "plan" but has merel) called for studies into
the current problems ol highei education in the
state to be made by the trustees of state's
institutions.
"There are three courses of action left to
us Jenkins said. These three plans are. (1)
have a president for all the regional universities
and a chancellor for the consolidated university
which will approach the state Legislature for
funds; (2) have a "super board" with members
elected by congressional districts, one from
each district; or (3) use the same system now in
use with budgeting done through formula
budgeting.
Jenkins denied that he was against the
proposed revamping of the State Board of
Higher Lducation and asserted that formula
budgeting was the answer to the problem of
funds.
FORMULA BUDGETING
Formula budgeting, explained Jenkins, "is
simply every institution getting the same
amount for the same jobs
The Legislature, trustees and Board of Higher
Education would decide the amount of
appropriations for all state institution's various
departments.
Med school aid
omitted in budget
RALEIGH (AP) No hinds for statp aH in stnrlnt "
RALEIGH (AP) No funds for state aid to
private medical schools, financial aid to college
students or the proposed two-year medical
school at ECU are included in Gov. Bob Scott's
budget.
The record $4.3 billion recommended budget
was presented to the 1971 General Assembly as
it convened Wednesday.
The Board of Higher Education requested
$1.5 million for the 1971-73 biennium to
provide state aid to North Carolina's two
private medical schools Duke and
Bowman-Gray for each entering Tar Heel
student they take
The 1969 legislature set the precedent fur
the 1969-71 biennium to provide payments of
S2.500 for each North Carolina freshman
medical student.
The two schools enrolled 41 Tar Heel
freshmen in 1969, the first ear ot the grants. It
was an increase of about eight students over the
three preceding years.
This fall the two schools enrolled 66 N.C.
freshmen, and the requested SI.5 million was
aimed at maintaining this level. It would
provide $3,650 for each entering Tar Heel
student.
Scott said no funds were recommended for
state aid to college because a study committee
has not finished its report on the matter.
State education officials have said a
comprehensive aid program would take $20 to
$30 million for the biennium.
ECU President Leo Jenkins asked the
Advisory Budget Commission for about $13.3
million to establish the proposed medical
school $2.56 million for faculty and staff and
$10.75 million for a medical sciences building.
The budget noted that "the scope and extent
of the school of medicine at ECU is a matter
for consideration and decision by the General
Assembly
A report on the proposal from an
accreditation committee of the Association of
American Medical Association is due Jan. 28.
The matter will then go to the Board of Higher
Education.
Jenkins is expected to take his request for
funds directly to the General Assembly,
especially if the accreditation report is
favorable.
Priority of bills raises
legislative debate
Hu.llM FII'HI IMf: ,??? c ? Ci
ByJIMEICHLING
(Staff Writer)
The priority of bills to be considered by the
SGA Legislature led to heated debate in the
meeting Monday.
Rules were suspended for the immediate
passage of a bill that te-appropriates money for
the Cheerleaders and Spirit Committee. The
rules were not suspended to deal with issues
that some legislators felt more timely. The
money appropriated to the nonexistent Pep
Band will go to the Cheerleaders to help pav for
the travel of the ECU Pom Pom Pirateers to the
Southern Conference Basketball Tournament.
A bill presented to the Legislature is
normally sent to various commutes which
teview the bill before submitting it to the
Legislature for a vote In cases of urgency, the
Legislature can suspend the rules, thus
by-passing the committee stage of political
protocal.
Gary Massie. representative from Belk Dorm,
said. "I believe the SGA, including myself!
made a mistake in voting to suspend the rules.
.Furthermore, it puts the SGA in a bad light to
the Fountainhead and the students because the
SGA refused to consider Mr. Edward's bill. A
bill. I must admit, that I oppose
Legislate Dave Edwards had been denied
suspension of the rules on a bill which called
lor a referendum vote of confidence on the
entire SGA from the student body. Because the
petition calling for a re-election had been
declared unconstitutional. Edwards stated,
"The SGA should voluntarily ask the students
if they want a re-election by means of a vote of
confidence
Edwards was questioned on the
constitutionality of his bill, to which he replied,
"I'm not a politician. I only know this is a
matter of ethics
Duiing the subsequent "Pom
Pom-Cheerleader debate Massie said,
"Because this bill is certainly no more pressing
than Mr. Edwards' bill, this one should have
been sent back to committee also
Massie went on to imply that personalities
were instrumental in the workings of the
Legislature. "If Mr. Edwards had introduced
the Cheerleader bill it probably would have
been sent back through normal channels said
Massie.
In further business, a bill was passed that
allocated S500 to the Thundering Herd
Memorial Fund. A bill for the allocation of
$200 to the Kent State Legal Defense Fund was
sent to the Appropriations Committee where it
subsequently teceived favorable report and will
be voted on at the next meeting.
A bill to consider the hiring of a full-time
lawyer by the SGA to represent the students
and student organizations was referred to
committee for study.
Symposium offered
on Europe
What concept do people have of Europe? Do
they get their information first hand or from
"hear-say?"
For three days. Jan. 19-21, ECU will host a
symposium entitled "Concepts of Europe Six
visiting speakers and 13 ECU professors will be
on hand to discuss different aspects of Europe.
Subjects will range from geography,
economics, and military concepts to European
prejudices, culture, and custom.
Dr. Hans H. Indorf of the Political Science
Department, will talk on ECU's European
Study Center.
Guest speakers for the symposium include
Mircea Mitran. first secretary of the Embassy of
Romania; Lt. General John A Lang,
administrative assistant to the secretary of the
Air Force; and George Kenny of the European
desk of the US State Department.
Denoit d'Aboville, second secretary of the
Embassy of France; Edward G. Marsh, author
of St. Louis; and Guy Vanhaeverbeke, deputy
director of European Community Information
Service will also speak.
The speakers will talk in their particular
field, and will participate in a discussion
concerning some of the speculative concepts of
Europe.
Students who have traveled in Europe will
also speak on their experiences with European
people and the environment.
Dr. Indorf expressed his hopes that this
symposium will attract many students,
particularly those who have hopes of going to
Europe in the future, and also, those students
who plan to attend the ECU campus in
Germany.
All sessions will be held in the Social Science
Building auditorium, room B-102, unless
otherwise announced.
The appropriations would be the same foi
each school. Only fully accredited programs
would receive funds. New programs and courses
would be funded on a trial basis to see which
university could handle the new courses and
programs most effectively, according to
Jenkins.
This would leave the door open foi
competition in the universities which would
lead to the best use of the taxpayers money.
Jenkins explained.
SUPPORTS STATEMENT
Jenkins furthei said that he supports ECU
Trustee Irving Carlyle's statement that
"competition in education isjust as good as it is
in business
The ECU President also cited support tor his
stand in the state Legislature by quoting one
senator's comment on the editorial flurry

Draft call
to exceed
predictions
WASHINGTON (AP) Despite predictions
of lowered draft calls this year. Selective
Service Director Curtis W. Tarr says lottery
number 195 may prove to be the upper limit
again.
Tarr says the 1971 draft pool, consisting of
men just turned 19, will be smaller than the
1970 pool which consisted of men aged 19 to
26. Thus, he said, although fewer men might be
called, it will take higher draft numbers to get
the manpower.
Tarr said he doesn't know how many
draftees will be needed in 1971 but cited
published reports that Secretary of Defense
Melvin R. Laird estimated the total would fall
between 80,000 and 120.000
The draft director discussed the 1971
outlook in a conversation Monday following a
news conference in which he announced
administration plans to seek an end to college
stadent deferments this year. He also said the
administration wants to start a uniform
national call, allowing the same lottery number
to be called everywhere, instead of the present
system of geographical quotas. Both moves
would require congressional approval.
Tarr also commented on his testimony, just
released by a House subcommittee, that some
colleges were refusing draft board requests for
information on students.
He said he thinks nothing will be done about
it. pointing out that the schools are not legally
required to provide the information.
Shortly after Tarr spoke, the Defense
Department announced a February draft call of
17,000 the same as January.

Dr. Richard L. Mauger of the Geology
Department has been awarded a $17,280
research grant from the American Che
Society's Petroleum Research Fund.
Mauger will administer the grant m a
two-year examination of old lake deposits in
the Green River formation and adjacent basins.
This two-year study grant marks a continuation
of a study that he started last summer under
the same program.
The Green River formation is a peculiar type
of rock found m Wyoming, Colorado, and
Utah. The formation wus named for the Green
River, a tributary of the Colorado River, which
cuts through parts of the rock, according to
Mauger.
The project will consider fossiis and rock
layers found in the formation in determining
the age of the lake deposits. The results of these
studies will also be used to accurately date early
mammals.
The summers of the two-year studv will be
spent at the site of the formation The rest of
the work will be done here at ECU and in other
locations.
Mauger will be working in cooperation with a
group from the U.S. Geological Survey. He will
also work with a Geo-Chemistry group from the
University of Arizona which will include
researchers engaged in a study of the evolution
of Colorado Rivet drains.
"The Green River formation is a classical

Better mental health services
Students to study East
By JACKIE STANCILL
(Sta'f w liter)
A group of ten ECU students, headed by a
husband and wife team, have submitted a
proposal to the National Science Foundation
(NSF) for a study of mental health services in
Eastern North Carolina.
Senior accounting major Joseph Mallardi.
who will act as student project director, and
his wife Susan, a social work major, have
joined with eight other students from various
academic departments to plan the project
The group seeks to "suggest better methods
for case assignments" and to "compare the
clinics facilities, programs, and personnel" in
eastern N.C. to the N.C. state guidelines,
according to their project abstract.
Acting under the sponsorship of the
Psychology Department, the group is requesting
a grant of $13,290 from the government
through the Student Originated Studies (SOS)
program of the NSI
Guidelines for proposals to the SOS progiam
specify that a project must be conducted bv a
group of students and must be interdisciplinary
in nature. It must be originated, planned, and
directed by students, and must involve 10 to 12
weeks of uninterrupted work.
If their project is funded, the students will
work in the summer of 1971, gathering data
from mental institutions throughout Eastern
N.C. They will conduct interviews in
Goldsboro, Ahoskie. Washington. Greenville,
and Wilmington.
One goal of the researchers will be to define
similarities and differences in the way mental
patients and therapists view each other
The students say that "after analyzing the
data, we hope to be able to support a
correlation between the individual therapeutic
relationship and client improvement oi lack ol
improvement. If patterns are found, suggestions
for improved methods of case assignments
might be formulated
Faculty advisors for the project are l)r
Charles Mitchell and Dr. William Grossnickle of
the Psychology Dept.
Dr. Mitchell believes the project would be

sciences and would "give tremendous insight
into what actually happens in patient-thera

Street. Since the lighting on Fifth St. was not
sufficient, said Harrell. the city has now put
mine lights along Fifth St.
Changes in exam schedules
no longer permitted
The hedge m front ol the I niversitv along
Filth is presently being pruned, although not
primarily because ot the assaults, said Clifton
Moore. ECU Business Managei
"The hedge has been allowed to grow in the
lasl lew vearsand has become imshapelv said
Moore. "It is now being pruned so that it can
be shaped in the spring to become a more
regulai border
Mooie said that townspeople have often
suggested that the hedges be lowered so thai
the campus can be seen from Fifth St.
He added. "There is a good side effect. I'm
sine that there won't be a refuge I'm anyone to
hide along Fifth St. now
Harrell went on to say that any coed
assaulted should contact the campus police
station immediately and give some
identification of the man if possible.
Indian funds reportedly misused
During the winter quarter evam period any
student having three exams on one day will not
be able to have one of them changed.
In previous exam periods it has been the
policy of the Provost to try to change exam
times tor a student having more than two
exams on the same day.
"It was never an established policy, but I
used to change them (exams) while I still could
simply because 1 was able to do so Provost
Robert Williams said
Besides the fact that students now have a
reading day to prepare foi exams, it is
impractical to attempt to change exams because
the University is offering more courses, said
Williams
He also mentioned the fact that several
"common" exams are given in departments
such as the English departmeni and the
Romance Language departmeni These exams
involve several hundred students, therefore
change ot exams would be unpractical
The Provost met with the Wministrative
Council last spring and confronted them with
the problem of policy involving exam ch.i is
Although not mandatory according I he

agreed thai changing exams is not feasible now

WASHINGTON (AP) State and local
school officials have misused millions of federal
dollars earmarked for the education of
impoverished Indian children, two prominent
legal groups charged Tuesday.
In a study covering 60 school districts in
eight states, the NAACP Legal Defense Fund
and the Harvard Center for Law and Education
said the money was used "for every conceivable
school system need except the need that
Congress had in mind
PRACTICE ENCOURAGED
The study said money intended for Indians
was used to buy "fancy equipment" for white
students and for general operating expenses "to
reduce taxes for non-Indian property owners
The U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs
encouraged such practices the study said, by
looking the Othei way when districts misused
funds, and then granting them extra Indian
student money to replace that they'd misused.
The 162-page report, compiled by a
32-member task force, 27 of whom were
Indian, cited no figures on misused funds. But
Phyllis McCIure, Washington representative of
the Legal Defense Fund, said the funds misused
added up to "more than 50 per cent" of the
approximately $66 million in special federal
funds for the 1969-70 school year.
WORST EDUCATION
The report focused on districts in Arizona,
New Mexico. North and South Dakota, and also
touched on New York, Oregon. Oklahoma and
Montana.
"By every standard, Indians receive the worst
education ot any children in the country the
report said. "They attend shabby, overcrowded
public schools which lack even basic resources"
it added, with many teachers openly
disrespectful oi Indian heritage and culture.

from the optimism John once

human being, not just an
ex-Beatle
"John Lennon Plastic Ono

useless debate over who was
the dynamic force within the

John as a strong contender.
But foi John and his music, the
question is not, "Where did

record in the 100, 200, 500, and 1,000 yard freestyle.
Feature Athlete
of the Week
By DONTRAUSNECK
(Spor11 Editor)
Jim Griffin. ECU'S premier swimmer from Norfolk, Va has
been selected as Fountainhead's first Feature-Athlete-of-the-Week
for his performance in two dual meets last weekend.
The junior freestyler won the 1,000 and 100-yard events
against Virginia Saturday and came back Sunday to win the only
event he entered the 200-yard freestyle.
Holder of the school records in each of these events, as well as
the 500-yard freestyle. Griffin "has a lot of drive and desire to be
the best at what he's doing according to ECU swimming coach
Ray Scharf.
"There's no challenge that's too great for him said the coach
who has fashioned Southern Conference swimming and diving
championships the past three years.
Griffin appears to be a key factor in what could be Scharfs
fourth and ECU's sixth straight swim crown.
Part of the reason for Griffin's success, according to Scharf. has
j been the tremendous effort he has devoted to bettering his times.
'FEW DAYS OF PRACTICE MISSED'
"There have been very few days of practice he has missed
said the coach emphatically. "He has also sacrificed his last two
summers swimming for the Philadelphia Aquatic Club
And all the hard work has paid off with dividends for Griffin.
Acclaimed by his coach and anyone who knows him as "the
best swimmer ever at East Carolina Griffin is also the defending
AAU champion in the 100-meter freestyle.
In addition to his many individual school records, he anchors
the ECU record-holding 400-yard freestyle relay team and has
recorded a very impressive 47.4-second leg.
In the first set of standings released recently by the National
Collegiate Athletic Association, Griffin was ranked eighth
nationally in the 1,000 and 200-yard freestyle events.
"He's got the potential to be the best at what he does even
to make Ail-American said Scharf. "And that accomplishment
is a rarity at East Carolina, particularly for the university
division
FANTASTIC CREDENTIALS
However fanastic Griffin's credentials are, though.one has to
look at them from a relative standpoint and here is where Ins
glory really lies.
Griffin is currently ranked 20th in the world in the 100-meter
freestyle and 21st in the 200-meter event, according to
"Swimming World
He still has a long way to go. though. According to Scharf, he
hasn't yet reached his potential and "there is much more for him
to learn and much more to develop
Bui if, as the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Griffin is well
On his way. He can be seen daily at the pool in Minges
Natatorium getting ready for the next meet. "The challenge of
the workout is never too great for him said Scharf.
I For two and a half years, Griffin has been instrumental in
helping fashion a swimming power and if he can continue to
perform at his present pace it looks as though there will be clear
Sailing ahead for the Pirate ship.
Take third in relay
In the opening competition
bf the indoor track season
Friday, ECU's two-mile relay
tcam placed third in the
Catholic Youth Meet held at
jfColloge Park, Md.
The one-mile relay team,
jalso entered in the mod. tailed
to place.
James kidd ran a 1 54.4
anchor leg to clinch the
third-place finish. The rest of
team consisted of Rusty
Carrawav, Lannv Davis and
Gerald Klas.
With the Chesterfield
Invitational Meet, scheduled
for the following day,
cancelled, the Piiates will be
idle until Feb. 6 when they
travel to Lexington, Va for
the VMI Winter Relays.
Bill Carson, the Pirates'
highly-successful track mentor,
claimed that such a short
schedule makes it unable for
him to determine how strong a
season he should expect for the
spring.

In the first meeting between

Dave Twardzik, 16.
FIRED-UP
The Pirates, fired-up for
revenge, started as though they
would get it easily as they
forged ahead to a 12-2 lead
alter only four minutes.
From here, however, the
Monarehs caught fire and
rallied back to take a slim 20-18
lead.
The Pirates chose this lime
to move back in front and
pulled away to as much as a
nine-point lead, several times in
the closing minutes,
LEAD AT HALF
t intermission, the Pirates
led 47-41
The second hall started
slowly for the Pirates as ODU
outscored them 14-6 to grab a
lead with only 1339
remaining.
With the teams trading
baskets, it looked for awhile as
though the game might go right
down to the wire as the
previous one had.
ECU made several costly
mistakes in this period to
almost give the game away a
pass out-of-bounds, an
over-thrown inbounds plav.

President praises
positive activism
By DR. LEO W.JENKINS
(ECU President'
I am asked frequently about student unrest
and the possibility of violence and disorder on
our campuses. We are not unmindful of this
matter and cannot dismiss it lightly.
It is indeed unfortunate that when an
outbreak of campus violence occurs, personal
injuries and damage to property are often the
results And also destructive is the divisive lack
of communication between student protesters
and administration, which is usually the
by-product of disagreement
However notorious such incidents have
become, we must point out that the seeds of
unrest and destructiveness lie in a very small
percentage of college students The great
majority are seriously pursuing their education,
and while they may disagree with
"Establishment" standards, they resort to more
rational, effective methods of effecting change.
We heartily endorse student involvement in
political and social matters. Here at ECU.
student organizations are of great assistance to
charitable fund-raising drives and campaigns
Often they initiate such activities as Christmas
parties for local needy children One student
organization has been formed to tutor
culturally deprived children in . their
schoolwork. And. each year, a student group
sponsors a blood donation drive for the Red
Cross.
Students who are involved in these altruistic
activities benefit themselves as well as those
whom they serve. They enjoy helping others
and they gain the satisfaction of knowing that
they are effecting a positive change upon the
condition of society.
There are a variety of outlets through which
politically active students may exercise their
abilities and interests. Campus chapters of such
organizations as the Young Democrats and the
Young Republicans enable their members to
have a bloc voice in political party policy.
Student members meet their counterparts from
other campuses at state and regional
conventions and rallies, and find opportunities
to express their views on political issues.
Similarly, a number of student delegates
attend annual meetings ol the State Student
Legislature and the Model United Nations.
They learn a great deal about political
problems, and, from participation m the
activities of these simulated bodies, they gain
insight into the complex workings of legislative
bodies and the United Nations.
On campus, students have their own
governmental system, the Student Government
Association. Our SGA is one of the best in the
nation. Like the U.S. federal and state
governments, it has executive, legislative, and
judicial branches, and its budget is the second
largest among student governments throughout
the nation.
Student response to current issues need not
be violent and destructive. Here at ECU.
peaceful demonstrations took place on Earth
Day and Moratorium Day. Concerned students
gathered on the campus mall and heard speeches
from other students and campus visitors.
Last spring, during a memorial service at
ECU for the four students killed at Kent State,
we addressed a gathering of about 1.000
students seated on the mall. A small number of
those present had urged violence, but the
attitude of the majority was sorrow and deep
concern for a deplorable tragedy.
We strongly support positive student
activism. Our nation needs the force of idealism
which comes from college-age youth. Today's
young people are better informed and more
immediately involved in the affairs of the
world, in society, and in environmental crises
than any previous generation.
Those in decision-making positions, political
leaders, and citizens in general should welcome
the help that our college youth can provide. In
all likelihood, they will shortly be eligible to
vote in every election, and therefore, a major
avenue of youth's service to society will be
opened.
Violent, disruptive behavior as a means of
expressing one's opinion about political or
campus issues must not be tolerated. But
orderly, constructive demonstration of ideas
should be allowed, even encouraged, if
democracy and the concept of free speech are
to remain with us.

QUESTION: What tests can be made to
determine whether or not a person is sterile?
ANSWER: Sterility, or the inability to produce
children, is far more common than is
appreciated. It is said that as many as 10 per
cent of married couples have great difficulty in
having children of their own or are unable to
have children of their own. The tragedy of
unwanted pregnancy often receives more
attention than the prolonged distress of being
unable to get pregnant.
In the woman, tests to determine sterility
include examination to check for the
occurrence of ovulation, chemical tests to
determine normalcy of endocrine function, and
X-ray and other tests to determine if the
fallopian tubes (the tubes carrying the egg) are
open. Sometimes direct visualization of the
ovaries is required As an aside, while gonorrhea
is not usually thought of as being a very serious
disease, it often causes infertility due to chronic
infection and blockage of the fallopian tubes.
In the man, tests include determinations of
endocrine function and examination of the
semen and a sperm count. Only rarely is a
testicular biopsy resorted to. A gynecologist is
the physician a woman would see if sterility
were suspected, and a urologist is usually the
physician who performs the necessary tests on a
man.
QUESTION: Why do I have tapeworms? I am
24 years old and a single woman. I am
extremely clean, and my diet is good; my
weight is perfect. I've taken tapeworm tablets
to get rid of them which works just fine for
about three months only then they come back
again. What can I do to get rid of them forever?
ANSWER: Tapeworm infections are nol very
common in the United States although a variety
of other types of intestinal parasites peacefully
make their home in the bowels of millions of
our fellow citizens. In some parts of the world.
intestinal parasites are found in nearly
everyone Tapeworms usually come from
infected beef, pork or fish Humans ingesting

The
Forum
Genera College vote
To Fountainhead:
The Faculty Senate will vote next Tuesday,
Jan. 19, on a proposal to reduce the present
General Education requirements. We believe the
proposed change is unsound both in theory and
in practice.
One assumption behind the new proposal
states that "the only specific courses that
should remain as requirements are courses that
provide basic approaches to problems or
instruction in skills which a student may
acquire in no other way We question
whether "approaches to problems" or
"instruction in skills" (which we would sum up
as specialization and job training) are the only
desirable goals for a General Education
curriculum
Another assumption of the new program is
that "the elimination of specific course
requirements in the Social Sciences and in the
Humanities and Fine Arts would not only
permit greater freedom of choice, but it would
more accurately reflect the balance in the value
and in the quality of the courses offered by all
of the departments and schools in these areas
We submit that "specific course
requirements" are necessary for any systematic
introduction to human knowledge. As to the
need for "greater freedom of choice we
suggest that students lack the background to
know what courses will ultimately be most
beneficial (this is true of most of us in our
advanced schooling as well). And to select
courses based on the appeal of the department
is finally to hold that the value in areas of
learning depends solely on the worth of the
departments that teach them.
Further, we question the effects in practice
of the revised GeneraUEducation program. Its
adoption would mean that a stu, it holding a
liberal arts degree need have no course in
history or literature. At the least the new
proposal should not be voted on until the
various departments have listed the courses
they will offer for General Education credit.
We sympathize with the complaint that some
General Education courses are poorly taught.
We would like to see consideration given to the
creation of a Department of General Education
to which teachers from the various disciplines
would be assigned (hopefully voluntarily) and
whose purpose would be to shape an
interrelated liberal arts curriculum over which it
would have control. As to the desire of some
professional schools that their students spend
more time in their specialty, we suggest they be
allowed to do so and be given the professional
degrees they have earned.
For us the basic issue was summed up by Dr.
Carpenter of the Music School, who "wondered
if a course in business (economics) would not
be just as important as a history course in
preparing students to become members of
society today" We believe the role of
education is to prepare students to criticize
society, not merely to fit in.
We urge the students and faculty of the
university to take this matter seriously before
the Faculty Senate vote on Jan. 19. We wish
the committee had considered further Dr.
Kozy's suggestion that in a highly diversified
university a new approach to Ceneral
Education requirements is more desirable than
the compromise under consideration.

housekeeping in the small intestine, the
tapeworms can grow to a length of thirty feet
(in some species) but commonly are a more
reasonable size such as nine or ten feet. Most
of the symptoms they produce are related to
digestive tract function and include diarrhea,
cramps, bleeding, and a sense of fullness. The
person is often aware of the infection because
they excrete parts of the worm.
Many of the sources of tapeworms in this
country have been reduced or eliminated ovei a
period of years. Fish tapeworms weie not
uncommon in the Great Lakes region but
pollution and a declining interest in raw fish
took care of the problem. Inspection of bed
