Public lnstructionjtudyports N.C. students'beh By SYDNEY ANN GREEN Staff Writer North Carolina students trail behind Other students ? the Southeast and the nation In .?darak ichtawment accordtng to a state Department of fuhlu- Instruction study OouRlas K. Jone d(an of School of Eduction. commented on the ?JUte Of tl?. study "I'd like to know where the students were f.ve years aK?" he said -and how much they have improved y NINE PERCENT BEHIND that"1? 0thll ,h1RS- tht' re"ort -M that eastern North Carolina students scored lower than students ,n the mountain and piedmont region. It also stated that N.C. students rank abo" n.ne percent behind the national average m academic ability. "I believe you would probably explain this by saying easterr N.C. jrohably has a greater percentage of disadvantage people, ? sa,d Jones. "I would certainly question the nine percent lag in terms of academic ability. Historically ? he added, "eastern North Carolinians do not test well on verbal tests, but in terms of academic ability our students would perform as well as any student in N C or the nation ' " East Carolina will not be affected by this, Jones feels. "All our students meet the entrance requirements he said. He does feel however that this will probably keep some students from being able to move into college preparatory classes in high school. It also puts the eastern N C student at a disadvantage when competing with students from other Council approves city pool, studies location proposal ByBRENDAPUGH Staff Writer The Greenville City Council has set aside $150,000 for ,he construction of a ?wimming pool, The action was taken at the March meeting, when the Council approved various expenditures from the 1972 7,1 tevenue Sharing Fund. The" Fund consists of federal monies which are given to dtias for .pending within regulation specified by the federal government. BoydLee, Director of Recreation ,n Greenville, ca,ms the pool should be ready for use in the summer of 1974 The location for the pool is currently under study by the Recreation Commission. , probable site, according o Lee, is Arlington Boulevard near Pitt rlaza. SOURCES AVAILABLE In the event the $150,000 from the Revenue Sharing Fund provides insufficient, other funding sources are available, according to Lee. "A fee for using the pool ,s likely " he said. "The City Council would probably give additional monies. "A few thousand dollars more he said, "wouldn't be too much to see that it's done right " Lee acknowledged that much support for the pool has come from Councilman W. E. Dansey "He's been very interested said Lee, "and has constantly pushed to get money for the pool Citizens of Greenville have also expressed and encouraged City Council to construct a pool. Lee cited the League of Women Voters as one of the most active. BUILDING The building of a pool was debated last summer in City Council. One proposal considered at that time was the building of three pools in various parts of the 'ity. These were to be built over several years. According to Boyd, however City Council rescinded its action on the proposal. When the Recreation Commission was asked for recommendations, funds were not available. Therefore, the pools could not be built. Edgar Hooksm chairman of ECU's Health and Physical Education Department, has been appointed to the planning commission for the pool. TAXI RATES In other City Council business, Greenville's seven taxi companies have secured permission from the Council to raise their rates as of April 16. On trips within the city limits, the new fares will represent an average 25 increase over the rates now in effect, where there are one or two passengers. This means a 15 to 25 cent increase on fare m uuown one or two-passenger trips. The rate increase has been under consideration for at least two months. According to Christine Gorham of City Cab Company, the measure has not yet met with opposition. "Everything else is going up she said.

'The graduates of the high schools who enter the School of Education at East Carolina are better prepared now than they have been at any other time he said. In a recent News and Observer story, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Craig Phillips said the schools are improving. Jones said he agrees with Phillips. 'The schools in eastern N.C. are getting better every day. The administration and teaching has improved greatly during the last three years Jones added that although the education facilities have been improved greatly m the past 10 years additional "New emphasis should be placed on academically ivatlVe arlnlf ?? ar new innovative adult education programs to help the people who are not associated with the public school Jone said.

According to Jones, a significant factor in North Carolina has been federal aid to education. "Many outstanding programs have been developed to supplement the regular classroom instruction he said. According to the Observer story an assessment document on the test results recommends remedial help to help improve the education of the students Jones said he would rather see "a more innovative approach ,n diagnostic- teaching rather than remedial We need to help our teachers to diagnose the problems of the child and how to help him. In a modern education more emphasis ought to be placed on diagnostic education and this is what we hope to accomplish in our teacher education at ECU ountainhead and the truth shall make you free' VOLUME IV, NUMBER 39 GREENVILLE, N.C TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 1973 Ve'LClubs ?"erates eoop bookstore By DAVID HAINS Staff Writer Books are the staff of life for the university student, but they are expensive. At the beginning of each quarter when buying books is inevitable this staff is often mistaken for a shaft. To help overcome the problem of expensive books, the Veterans Club opened a student cooperative bookstore during the first two weeks of spring quarter. The purpose of the store was for student to get a higher price on the books iey wanted to sell than they could have gotten from the Students Supply Store, and anabling them to buy books cheaper. ACTS AS MIDDLEMAN According to Bill Laugh inghouse, secretary of the Vets Club, the books sold are priced by the students who own them. "He (the student) charges what he thinks us a fair pric and the Vets Club gets 10 of the sale for acting as middle man The store, he continued, gives the student every advantage. Unlike the bookstore, the co-op accepts lab manuals workbooks and cribbed language books. Not every buy in the store is a bargain though. Since the books are priced by the student selling them, the prices are not consistent and in some cases the co-op books are more expensive than those found in the campus bookstore. Laughinghouse pointed out that, "those have a hard time selling Most of the co-op prices however are cheaper than the bookstore prices. The store had a problem of not reaching enough students during its recent operation and this was mainly due to advertising problems It was not known until the last day of winter quarter where the store would be held and as such it was impossible to let people know about it. As a result only about 200 students took advantage of the store. DALE CAMP helps out with Veterans Club (Staff Photo by Ross Mann) co op on third floor of Wright Annex. Tobacco -history symposium opens this week A symposium on the history of tobacco and North Carolina's tobacco society will bring academicians and tobacconists together on the ECU campus in Greenville on March 21 and 22. Students of the history of tobacco and a cross-section of Carolina and Virginia growers, warehousemen, processors, manufacturers, company personnel, buyers, and other persons interested in tobacco will pool their knowledge of this crop in an effort to determine the many aspects of its impact upon the life of people of North Carolina. Dr. John Ellen, director of ECU's Institute for Historical Research in Tobacco which is presenting the symposium has termed it "a memorable moment in the long effort to tell the story of this great crop and of the people who have made it a factor in our history since the days of Jamestown The program, he pointed out, would range over the story of tobacco from the colonial period to the most recent times and would embrace accounts of great captains of the tobacco industry as well as the average tobacco grower. Speakers will discuss such specific topics as: "Inventive Genius in the Virginia-Carolina Tobacco Belt "The Dukes of Durham "Colonial Virginia's Crop of Gold "Strange Medical Reports about Tobacco in the Past "Technology and Mechanization and "The Bewitching Vegetable. The Story of Tobacco in America Program sessions will consider such tobacco areas as history and myth, inventive genius and innovators, preservation of materials and recent trends in cultivation and processing. The symposium is presented by the Institute for Historical Kesearcn ui Tobacco and the Division of Continuing Education at East Carolina. Sponsors for the conference are the North Carolina Committee for Continuing Education in the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Council proposes leash law to eliminate animal dilemna Increase in Greenville's animal population has resulted in City Council's consideration of a possible leash law. Councilman William E. Dansey has requested that the animal control ordinance be written, with dogs as a main focus of the measure "These comprise 90 of the problem Said Dansey. Dansey explained that one provision of the law would require that any dog off its master's property must be on a leash and accompanied by a person. City Manager William H Carstarphen expects the ordinance to specify where animals may be kept, maximum number and licensing fees and procedures It will, therefore, be a modification of the existing laws. A public spay and neuter clinic might also be provided if the action is approved by City Council. It is also ex pec ted that the city will have to build and maintain shelters to house seized animals These animals would be held a short time before being claimed, sold or destroyed. Carstarphen feels that the ordinance will probably provide for notifying the public of what animals have been taken. Those identified by registration tag could be easily traced back to the own r. The request for more stringent regulation is a result of the increase in the local animal population. Residents of Greenville have had increased complaints regarding damage to yards and gardens, barking and injury to small children. Dansey stated that there have been hundreds of complaints. He also stated that members of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) have volunteered to man the shelters if they aie constructed Dansey noted that leash laws are in effect in many cities, such as New York and Denver In Denver, the owner must pay to get back an animal which has been picked up.

The jail ministry concentrates its efforts on young people involved with drugs, both male and female, in jails and detention centers Children are the .uin of "One-Waj Production" which uses puppet shows to demonstrate its message. A "Half-way House" for male and female residents has both a junior and senior high school on its campus to aceomodate 25 students living there. Thi Bondurants, on their second trip to Greenville, are very hopeful about the possibility of beginning a coffee house ministry here Bondurant expressed his belief that "it is time Christ had equal billing on college campuses He stated that their mam interest centers on "young people knowing the facts about Christ " Mrs Bondurant supported this idea She said the original idea of "The House of Ichthus" was to offer a tohition to the need expressed by kids for a place when' they could sit, talk and maybe find help for problems.

They take varied descriptions By DAVID HAINS Staff Writer A largo green Plymouth with a hlue light on the road passes a earful of students. They stare at the driver apprehensively. The driver makes no motion towards them and so they move on somewhat relieved. The man behind the wheel is Sergeant Doc Gannon. He is doing routine squad car duty on a quiet Friday night. It might seem odd that the students became wary but not to Gannon, according to him, "It's just human nature Slowly as the car finishes touring the rear of the boys dorms and heads toward the Coliseum, the greying Sergeant continues talking about attitudes towards the police, "People think that laws are made for the other fellow and so they look down upon a police officer. Any man in uniform is called as s.o.b. until he is needed, then he is God's gift, then he's an sob again The car radio cracks out instructions to another unit, the speaker slurs the words. It seems he is speaking another language. The subject of quotas conies up and Gannon says that he knows of no law enforcement agency having quota criteria for things like parking tickets "It would be unethical he adds The police do other things that few people are aware of, such as providing an ambulance service when needed. But mainly, the duties of an officer are to observe. H- looks for anything thai ? amiss, from a burnt out streetlight to a stolen vehicle. Emerging from a moment of reflection, Gannon compared tbe campus students to those of other campuses. He commented that Kl'l students were pretty well behaved. "The only real trouble that the police get comes just before exams when students are apt to pull pranks to let off steam, some even try to break into offices to have an early look at their exams Recently news was made when it was learned that the MRC had paid for the blue flashing lights which top the police cars The sergeant feels that the lights have come in handy since the cars are not equiped with sirens. He recalled an incident when he was in pursuit of a car suspected to have been involved m robbery, without the use of the light he would not have been able to overtax the suspects. The radio, relatively quiet until no advised the unit to proceed to Fletehe dorm to assist a pair of coeds. The gith it turned out, could not start their car and needed a jump. Gannon methodically obliged and proceeded 0 patrol. A member of the campus police f0 eight years, Gannon has seen the department grow from six members to its present size of eighteen. The campUs has changed a lot in the past few years ?it used to be that a girl could not walk across campus in shorts, students vverf not allowed to sit in parked cars for more than five minutes, no one ?, allowed in the cafeteria without shoes and a girl caught talking from her dortr. window was given 15 demerits according to Gannon. The car came tr. an abrupt halt and the sergeant gave the right of way to a group of studenu headed towards the gym. "fiu. nowwell, it's a whole new world" Young scientists let few mysteries stand By BOB MARSKE Staff Writer Hundreds of people from around campus and the state thrilled to the sight of science projects and experiments as ECU sponsored the 20th annual Eastern Regional Science Fair last Friday. The exhibition, which represented Student! from 30 Junior and Senior High Schools throughout Eastern North Carolina, took place in Memorial Gym, Each entrant w-as the winner of a similar competition in his local area. While no theme was expressed in the competition, the entrants were required to confine their efforts to the physical, biological and technological sciences. Judges for the competition were drawn from these same areas They included Dr. Robert Irons of the ECU Infirmary, other ECU instructors and professors. and numerous individuals from the business community. The judges awarded prizes for first, second and third places, for honorable mention, and for participation. BEGINS SPONSORSHIP James Nicholson of the Science Education Department directed and coordinated the fair. Through his efforts, and those of Dr. Floyd Mattheis, also of the Science Education Department, the fair was organized and all arrangements were made. This is the first year that the Science Education department has sponsored the exhibition. Although ECU has provided a site for the fair for the last eighteen years, that had been the extant of the school's involvement, The North Carolina Academy of Sciences had sponsored the fair. "Now we will adopt the fair, at least temporarily, as the Academy of Science is phased out said Nicholson. Nicholson advocates continuation of the exhibition. He feels they serve I valuable function, and commented, "The students benefit greatly from these exhibitions. Not only do they have a sense of personal achievement, but they gain new ideas and inspiration from observing their own results and the results of other entrants INSPIRATION CONTINUES The scope and diversity of the projects on display reinforced the fait that this nation is a well of mspiration which is constantly being refilled. Among such projects as a miniature functional still, a fully embalmed cat and numerous demonstrations dealing with pollution were certain especially notable efforts. One such project was devised by Worth Gurkin, a Junior at Clinton High School. Using a method established by Carl Younger of Michigan State I'niversity. Gurkin proved certain psychological and genetic principles with the use 0! planana (small flat worms). Planar which learned a simple task in a pver amount of time were fed to other planaria. This second group learned the task m significantly less time. The? results suggest some form of transferable genetic memory.

Tough pitching leads Pirates past Furman ECU opened up its conference schedule by sweeping both ends of a douhleheader from Furman Sunday afternoon at Harrington Field. Before the season began Coach Jim Mallory Figured on having a strong pitching staff and Sunday's games seem to add more strength to that notion. In the first game Tom Toms threw a one-hitter at the Paladins, struck out nine, walked none, and ran his string of scoreless innings to 20 with the 4-0 win. The Pirate's four runs came in the fourth inning by way of three hits, two errors, and a fielder's choice. Not to be out done. Phil Godwin threw goose eggs at the Paladins for six innings, before giving up two singles in the seventh of the second game. Still, the visitors were unable to score and Godwin finished the contest with a two-hitter and a 3-0 victory. The Pirates now stand at 4-1 on the season and were scheduled to host Duke University Monday afternoon. Lacrosse team gets off on the right foot by trouncing R LC ECUl Jeff Hansen wore out the nets against the Raleigh Lacrosse club on Sunday afternoon as he scored six goals in leading the Pirates to a 14-9 victory in the season opener. Hansen became the first ECU player in history ever to score six goals in a single ' untest. Danny Mannix supplied ftmple backup power as he pumped in four goals and added two assists.

ECU Station OnantrtlM, Nortn ciroiin 27?n Talaphonc 7316366 or 7JS-636; fountainhead Editorial Commentary New ordinance should ease stray dog problem here We greet with enthusiasm a request by City Councilman Bill Dansey that Greenville enact a more stringent ordinance for animal control At first glance the idea may seem as a restriction on animal owners, but its intent in the long run is to aid the stray animals, particularly dogs, of Greenville. I'nlike human births, the addition of a new litter of puppies implies no particular responsibility on the part of the mother or the dog's owner to adequately care for the new arrivals. Consequently, new-born pups are either given away quickly, or after being weaned by mother, left to care for themselves in any manner they can find. The result of this is a hard time for the residents, and an even harder time for the dogs. Lacking an owner who cares enough to feed and take care of it, the stray dog eventually becomes one of nameless hundreds, tearing down trash cans in his search for food If female, the dog is generally assaulted by every dog in the neighborhood during the time that Mother Nature has provided for reproductive processes, and the problem is multiplied five to ten times. If plans for the spay and neuter clinic are approved, Greenville will be one step closer to solving this multiplicative problem with its growing dog population. Spaying a female dog does not damage her. but only prevents the birth of unwanted pups which would otherwise have no chance to obtain love, food and proper medical attention. The new ordinance, if enacted will probably have no effect on the dog population of ECU. This, we feel, is a shame, for part of the dog problem in Greenville has been created by the students of ECU. It is apparently very "popular" to have a puppy as a pet at East Carolina. However, dormitory regulations prevent students from providing housing for the dogs, and day students generally "lose" their dogs whenever they move into an apartment or house than bans them. Students love their pets, but few are willing to spend the money to have a female dog spayed to prevent further accumulation of dogs. Therefore, when the dog becomes pregnant and delivers, the pups are given to anyone who will take the things off their hands. The result is easily identifiable on the ECU campus. Dogs wander around hoping that students will throw some of that Stewart sandwich their way. The dogs are frequently diseased with no prospect of medical treatment. Most have had no rabies shots, and those that have are out of date. They become an eyesore to the campus, and a threat to the safety of the student population. It must be remembered that dogs are not wild animals like squirrels and birds After years of domestication the dog loses part of his instinct for self-survival, and must receive human aid to insure proper care. Most students here either do not understand or simply could care less. The situation is indicative of the lack of concern on the student's part for the puppy they often "adopt Almost everyone loves a puppy, but few acknowledge any responsibility when the pup grows up into a large, demanding burden. After all, there is always someone else who has three or more newborn pups to chose from, and the student can always "adopt" another one of these. Lacking conviction that there will be a sharp difference in the attitudes of students towards stray dogs, we hope that Greenville's new animal ordinance, if enacted, will spread to adoption on the ECU campus. The stray dog problem will not go away by itself.

To carry this discussion further, we would like to question the student body as to their viewpoint of the quality of Black entertainment, the quantity of Black entertainment, and the future of Black entertainment, if any, on this campus. We do not understand why there is a lack of Black entertainment here at East Carolina. We feel that Black entertainment is a vital facet of the cultural development of the American society, and is very important to the development of Black culture. The purpose of a university has been stated as being to develop the student both culturally and academically, but because of the lack of Black entertainment on this campus, we feel that we have been culturally deprived. Signed: Concerned BLACK Students Time change makes article outdated To Fountainhead: Michael Jacobson's article concerning amnesty does show how, in the past, amnesty has been dealt with. But times change, new and different incidents come up, and (most important) the way the American public views these incidents change. In my opinion, amnesty is an open-and-shut case: YOU BREAK A LAW; YOU ARE PUNISHED. Mr. Jacobson stated that "For those who left the U.S. rather than participate in the Vietnam War, amnesty means seeing their families again If those who deserted, draft-dodged, or whatever were so fond of their family and country, they would have wanted to defend their family and country. If they left because they did not want to participate in an "immoral" war, such as the Vietnam War, and did not want to kill; why didnt they enlist anyway. The Army and other branches of the armed forces have programs other than actual combat. Also, the National Guard and the Reserves have programs which would enable someone to serve without even disrupting his normal life. Or, if someone simply did not want to do anything which would aid or abet killing; they could get a CO (consientious (sic) objector) classification. There are lots of other ways of not participating in war. Deserting, draft-dodging or whatever merely points out the weak-willed individuals who call themselves Americans. President Nixon knows that he has the support of the American public when he refuses to grant amnesty. The United States is no place for people who do not have the traits of steadfastness, pride for their country, and who do not have respect for the laws which govern and protect US. Proud to be Amercians, Pete Simpson Tim Stephenton To Fountainhead: If you want an extra-special dose of rudeness a'la ECU, try' "dining" in the Pamlico Room. There you will be allowed to pay 15 cents for a Coke that can be purchased anywhere else on campus for a dime You can also get a gray slab of meat they call a hamburger for 30 cents, providing you dont want anything "extra" on it. And then you can meet one of the astoundingly dense cashiers who always manage to add up your bill wrong( never in your favor). Now, if you should have the audacity to challenge his faulty arithmetic, not only will you have the correct change thrown at you, but this jerk (1 mean clerk) will gush out a few choice obsenities to show you how much the establishment appreciates your patronage. A former customer, Carolyn Exposito Too bad you can't hear the trees To Fountainhead: Knew a dog once called her a bitch. She bit me. Anyway, spring is coming. It's one of the only things I count on these days. This is a spring dream. Sometimes we think how things could be. Sometimes we write it down. Keep Quiet. Maybe. Maybe not? Somebody's sure making a lot of noise. I wonder sometimes what would happen if the people involved in this university would take a vote to decide whether or not to keep cars out of the central area of the campus, expecially the street around the Mall. It'd sure be a neat place to have motorcycle races. Dodging people, dogs, garbage. The stink hangs low and long, and burns the soul man. Maybe we could start distributing free Ex-lax on Mondays in the union. No opinion would surely be. But would you like to see the Mall all green and quiet and safe to walk across? And if you want to, put a couple of play areas in the street, with benches and fountains and bicycle paths, and make a garden lounge out of the old East Cafeteria, a place to go and think or just slow down. Hanging plants in the yard. What court yard? What's thinking? I'd sure like to have one bench on the Mall that you could sit in and feel the sun, at least. Have you seen the model plan the city re-development commission has down-town? They're a lot of beautiful trees around here. Too bad you can't hear them anymore. Andy McLawhorn Can't understand lack of Black entertainment To Fountainhead: A few Black students here at East Carolina University have become concerned over the quanity of Black entertainment on this campus. To put it bluntly, there has been little or none in the last several quarters. We agree that we have had token or representative Black entertainment in the past, but we also agree that the quantity of Black entertainment has not been characteristic of the impact of Black entertainment in American society. We further agree that Black music does not x-xXv-Xv ?x'Xxx-x-x?xx-xxvx-xx-x-x-x-xx-X'X-x and Mrs. Bob Clyde.

Barbara Turner Rats say, 'Just having fun' To Mr. Charles Townsend, co Fountainhead: I read your two entries of March 16 in "The Forum I found one very interesting and the other equally disgusting. In regard to the incident in which your girlfriend was thrown from her bicycle and nearly hurt, I extend my sympathy and understanding. I ride a bicycle myself and extremely detest the Greenville "Hell-Drivers I truly hope she is alright. However your attempt to ridicule and belittle your fellow man makes me nauseous. Apparently you became elated with your first letter as you gloated over your handiwork (remarkable, indeed, I must admit) and your sweaty little palms grasped feverishly for your pencil once again to make your second big hit. Thus, as you recall, is in reference to your traumatic- experience of seeing the incredibly horrid toilet paper the fraternity so unmercifully unfurled upon the unsuspecting sorority house. Well, Charlie Ego, your second letter is a flop in my book. Charlie, pollution is an introduction into the environment of a substance of such a constitution or in such a concentration or configuration as to create a hazard or to make its removal a nuisance. The paper was no hazard and was promptly removed. Neither was it a nuisance (of course, unless it deprived you of any sleep thinking of a way to ridicule the whole affair.) Fraternities and sororities enjoy this type of thing. It's a way of teasing or prompting a sorority and it often results in mixers, parties, laughs, and a good time between the two. Charlie, you call it "wasting paper and filling the air with their fiendish" (Jesus!) "howls of impish glee We call it "fun You com pained of having to walk by the mess on your way to class. Maybe you should re route your morning stroll If that's the way you feel about it, we dont want you walking by our houses If you would be so kind as to contad me I would gladly donate to you two rolls of toilet paper like the ones we "wasted You could make use of oui pollutant "waste" as you straddled the musky vapor of your bathroom stool Yeah, Oli-Can Harry, there go those frat rats - having fun AGAIN!
