Expansion called premature
Med officials say 'no expansion'
By SKIP SAUNDERS
News Editor
A panel of medical experts have,
recommended in a report that there be
no immediate exoansion of the ECU
prog
The report however does indicate
possible expansion of the one year
program in the future. The panel called
the proposed expansion at ECU
' premature
There is general agreement among
state legislators that the issue will
come before the 1974 General
Assembly.
The study by out of state medical
experts was commissioned by the
University of North Carolina Board of
Governors. The medical consultants
.vere inquiring into the possibilities of
another degree granting medical
school by the expansion of ECU'S
program. Dr. Edwin W. Monroe,
vice-chancellor of the medical program
at ECU. prepared this statement
concerning the consultants' report:
"After all of the dust predictably
created by this report has settled, two
facts should be crystal clear.
The first is that the consultants do
not call for any urgent or compelling
action to produce more doctors in
North Carolina. They recommend no
immediate steps to increase the
enrollment of North Carolinians in
medical schools.
The second fact is that the people
of North Carolina recognize clearly our
severe shortage of doctors and warn
something done about it now. We
believe that the people will insure that
much more immediate and positive

SGA robbed
By TOM BROWNLEE
Staff Writer
An estimated one thousand dollars
worth of office equipment was stolen
from the SGA offices last Wednesday
night.
Included among the articles
missing were two electric typewriters,
one IBM "Selectric" typewriter, and an
adding machine.
"We know very little about it as of
yet said J.H. Calder of the E.C.U.
Campus Police. However, he went on
to add, "The offices were broken into
using a key Jeannie Summerlin, the
Executive Secretary of the SGA
confirmed this savinq, "Yes, we found
two keys missing
"We'll De changing all the

on preventative measures against
further break-ins.
The stolen equipment was insured
and Miss Summerlin went on to say
"As far as I know, the insurance will
cover the loss However, the serial
numbers of the stolen equipment are
on file and the SGA has a faint hope to
recover the machines if and when an
attempt is made to sell them.
Other items of comparative value
such as a stereo set, various other
electrical fixtures, and SGA records
were left untouched during the
burglary.
Vandals strike
By TOM BROWNLEE
Staff Writer
Two cases of larceny and at least
two of vandalism against campus
property occurred on the ECU campus
last week.
An automobile was broken into and
an eight track tape player stolen on
Sept. 17. The car had been parked near
the new art building and left
unattended for slightly over four
hours. On the same day the Campus
Police answered another report of
larceny. Two large sections of
stainless steel duct were stolen from
the second floor of the new Student
Union. Their estimated value was
between seventy-five and one hundred
dollars, constituting grand larceny.
Windows were reported broken by
vandals in the men's dormitories on
the hill. According to Patrolman D.
Tripp of the Campus Police, "Someone
had apparently made a cannon from
beer cans, and fired wet balls of toilet
paper containing pennies to break the
windows
Other instances of dormitory
vandalism included missing Public
Address speakers. The speakers and
housing had been torn from the walls,
the speakers themselves removed and
the housing discarded.
Two students from Greensboro,
N.C. were arrested on drunk and
disorderly charges. They were
detained by the Greenville Police
Department until each had posted a
one hundred dollar bond, and were
released.
steps to solve their problems will be
taken over
ECU CHancellor Leo Jenkins and
Dean Wallace R. Wooles, of the school
of medicine were unavailable for
comment.
The following is an excerpt from
the report made by the medical
consultants, consisting of 11 recom-
mendations. :
RECOMMENDATION 3
Specifically, we recommend that
the Board of Governors assign to the
School of Medicine at UNCCH the
direct administrative and operating
responsibility for upgrading and
maintaining the existing one year
medical program at ECU with firm
authority over admission and pro-
motion of students, selection anG
appointment of faculty, redesign ol
curriculum, and budaeting for
operations as wen as upuui
expenditures.
We recommend that the size of the
class admitted to the ECU program in
1974 be held at 20 students and that
the quality and the accreditation status
of the program be reviewed again in
the latter part of 1974 or early 1975. If
progress has been satisfactory,
consideration should be given to
expanding the entering class in 1975 to
25 or 30 students. If improvement in
the program occurs and is sustained
and if the development of additional
capacity within the state to give
clinical education to medical students
warrants, it may become feasible and
desirable to further expand class size
and to aid a second year of medical
education to the program.

admitted to the Stadium:
1. Ice chests, coolers or
thermoses.
2. Baskets, hampers or boxes.
3. Bottles of any kind or cans.
4. Paper or plastic bags.
J.H. Calder, the University's
director of security, said that the
prohibition resulted from complaints of
fans. The policy was initiated in 1972.
North Carolina law (G.S. 18-A-30)
prohibits any public display, con-
sumption or possession of any
alcoholic beverages at athletic
contests.

Work at your own rote
ECU Professors try Keller Plan
By PAM SCRUGGS
Staff Writer
Two ECU professors, Dr. Caroline
Ayers and Dr. Floyd E. Mattheis, are
participating in a teaching program
that should provide an answer to the
problem of achievement at the
university level.
The program, the Keller Plan or
Personalized System of Instruction,
provides the student with the challenge
of individual studv and achievement at
one's own rate. This relatively new
method of teaching 'minus formal
lectures' gives the student the
opportunity to learn on his own from a
prepared text. Help is always available
from tutors and professors if the
student seeks it.
Chemistry 64 taught by Dr. Ayers
and Descriptive Astronomy 235 taught
by Dr. Matteis are the courses
presently operating under this system.
Dr. Matteis, department chairman
of Science Education, said the
program was brought to the ECU
courses because "we're always looking
for ways to improve our teaching and
classes
As with any program of this nature,
advantages and difficulties can be
easily cited. On the positive side, Dr.
Matteis pointed out that a student will
learn more on his own than in a
classroom lecture situation.
The only difficulty has been the
obtaining of text material to fit the
plan. Since Dr. Keller, the originator of
this svstem, emphasized physics,
mathematics and psychology, the ECU
professors have had to prepare the text
themselves.
Fortunately for Dr. Mattheis. a
summer graduate student, Lee Roger
Taylor, Jr took an interest in the
program, and wrote the curriculum for
the astronomy course.
"Student reaction to the plan is
hard to tell at this point since we're
just getting started Dr. Mattheis
concluded. But he feels the program
"shows much promise
Chemistry professor Dr. Ayers,
stated the program is essentially for
two types of students - the unusually
well-prepared student and the slow
student, the advantage for the talented
student is the challenge; the slow
student, the change to go at his own
rate.
The greatest disadvantage for the
student, Dr. Ayers noted, is
procrastination. In a course that
requires a certain number of units
completed within a long time span
putting off is usually easy, she noted.
Dr. Ayers feels a student benefits
most from the course by "learning to
work on his own. This ability is
needed far beyond the university
The success or tne plan at ECU
remains to be seen. The results will be
covered in a later issue of the
FOUNTAINHEAD.

cerning the Keller Plan, refer to the
Sept. 13, 1973 issue of FOUNTAIN-

Council considers non-thesis option
By MIKE PARSONS
Staff Writer
The Political Science Department has announced that a
proposal is now before the graduate council to offer a
non-thesis option for those pursuing a master's deqree in
political science.
According to Dr. H.A.I. Sugg of the department, the
proposal allows the student to substitute additional course
work for the thesis. He added that such programs have
been meeting with some degree of success at several
DR. HOWARD A. I. SUGG examines the no-thesis MA degree
proposal presented before the ECU graduate council.
UMffMMMMl
universities around th country.
One of the major reasons for such programs is that some
students experience great difficulty in producing a paper of
the magnitude of a thesis. The additional course work will
still require research papers, but their nature will be such
that a better estimation of the time required for completion
will be possible.
Dr. Sugg stated that the lack of a non-thesis option
may have been a factor in students' decisions to attend
another university for pursuance of their masters degree.
The program that exists at present requires the
completion of 39 hours of coursework. The student is then
given 6 hours credit for the satisfactorv completion of the
thesis making a total of 45 hours.
As proposed, the non thesis option will require 48 hours
of coursework with the same time limit of five years placed
on completion. The same basic requirements such as
examinations, etc. will also remain the same.
For those students who plan to pursue a doctorate, the
thesis option will still be recommended. The reason,
according to Dr. Sugg , is "to prepare the student for
writing the dissertation required of the PhD
The department hopes tor immediate approval. The
proposal must first te approved by the Graduate Council
(This may have been done by the time this paper is at
press.) It is then presented to the provost, men we
chancellor, and ultimately to the President of the N.C.
University system, Dr. William C. Friday.
Academic
Affairs office
for students
By MIKE PARSONS
Staff Writer
The Secretary for Academic Affairs
is the channel of the SGA which
students may use to register their
views and feelings concerning the
academic situation at ECU.
Jim Davis, the Secretary for
Academic Affairs is a senior with a
double major in political science and
sociology. Davis is attending ECU on
the Army's two year degree completion
program. Originally from High Point,
N.C. his family resides in Fayetteville
where he is a captain at Fort Bragg.
This office has met with success in
attaining reforms in procedures and
curriculum requirements this year.
Students returning to ECU this fall
saw the implementation of a new drop
policy whereby the student is allowed
twenty class days to drop a course!
without penalty. It has also been
instrumental in obtaining the deletion
of the swimming proficiency test from
graduation requirements.
Another responsibility of the
academic affairs office is to nominate
candidates for student membership on
various committees The student
nominees, after SGA approval, sit with
faculty members and participate in
making recommendations concerning
university policy. Problems have
occurred, however, since few students
have applied for the positions
available. He added that the only
requirements were that the student
sincerely wanted to participate rather
than occupy the seat and do
nothing. Some of the committees still
open for student membership are the
Curriculum Committee, Institutional
Survey Committee, and the Calendar
Committee.
In passing, Davis stated, "this
office is the student's medium for
input into the academic affairs of the
university He added that anyone
desiring to offer suggestions should
direct their comments to his office
which is in room 310 of the Student
Union.

degree
(CPS)-A liberal arts major in
cinema studies that leads to a
Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is now
being offered by the School of the
Arts of New York University.
This is the first degree program
in the country that will use film as
its basis for study. "That is not a
degree in filmmaking emphasized
Ted Perry, chairman of the
department of cinema studies. "It
is meant we will use the motion
pictures-its history, criticism,
esthetics-as a means of focusing
the realities of life today and to help
us learn how to live
The program "has been designed
to permit students to study their
world in terms of a major art form
according to David Oppenheim,
dean of the school.
The basic idea behind this new
form of study is that the cinema is a
cross section of all the arts and
humanities. A study of film
requires an integrative under-
standing of psychology, philosophy
history, literature, music, etc. The
use of documentary film as a
resource to deal with social studies
in another aspect of the new
curriculum.
It is hoped that students wi
find the prospect of studying Sartre,
Marx and Marcuse through the films
of Jean-Luc Goddard an intriguing
method. Proponents of the program
feel that while our culture has been
explored through novels, drama and
poetry, we have long neglected
cinema, television and song which
are becoming more dominant media
everyday.

Population and subsistence
THE NEW REPUBLIC
Any reasonable person knows that
the world population increase can't
continue. Seventy million more people
each year. Why, that's the size of East
and West Germany! We shrug and
say, "They'll starve in a few years -
glad I won't be around But suppose
you are around. Suppose time has run
out Suppose we are about to see the
greatest calamity in the history of
mankind.
FOOD RIOTS
It probably depends on the
weather The world's food stock is so
low, the margin is so thin, that with
bad weather 10 to 30 million people
may starve in 1974 It has already
started in Africa. There are food riots
in India. The UN Food and Agriculture
Organization called an emergency
meeting on grain at Rome last
week Robert McNamara, head of the
World Bank pleaded for a moral
response from the affluent nations at
the annual meeting of the bank at
Nairobi Kenya, this week. You can
see one effect at the corner
supermarket at home in the price of
foods. Prices will fall, in time, but
they are never coming back again to
"normal
HAVE NATIONS
The grab for food in the world
protein war comes from two sources,
the rise in affluence of the "have"
nations, and the rise in population of
the "have not" nations. Here's how it
works. West Germany, of course, is a
"have" nation. Its population has
stopped growing at ZPG (Zero
Population Growth). But its food
consumption is expanding because its
affluence permits it to buy more meat -
and meat requires more grain, and
grain occupies over 70 percent of the
world's crop area. The same thing is
true of Japan. Also of Russia; it has
land but not enough fresh water.
That's why it quietly grabbed a quarter
of our grain crop this year.
HAVE-NOTS'
For the "have not" countries the
choice is to get more food or
starve Their population doubles every
25 years. There are 3.5 billion people
on earth, 2 billion people ih the
"undeveloped" (have-not)countries.
Enforce laws: Nader
By RALPH NADER
WASHINGTONThere's gold in
them thar hills" used to be the
expectant cry of the 19th century
prospector. Today the inquiring citi-
zen-taxpayer could direct the same
words towards state and local
government which are losing billions
of dollars every year in uncollected
corporate tax revenues, lost procure-
ment savings, and non-interest bearing
qovernment accounts.
EXISTING LAWS
Here is a list of hidden lodes where
badly needed revenues could be
obtained simply by enforcing existing
laws and pursuing prudent government
management practices.
(1) There is a national scandal in
corporate evasion or underpayment of
property taxes. Public Citizen's tax
reform group estimates that local
government lose a minimum of $7
billion a year through underassess-
ment and evasion, most of which is
corporate.
Whether it is coal companies in
Appalachia, oil and gas firms in Texas,
timber and paper companies in Maine,
mining companies in the west, and
industrial plants and commerical office
buildings throughout the country, the
message is the same. The big
companies pay less while the small
homeowners and small businessmen
pay more property taxes as a result.
LOCAL ASSESSOR
Senator Muskie's subcommittee
estimated, for example, that U.S.
Steel's Gary, Indiana plant is
underassessed by $119 million. The
local assessor has been denied
information by U.S. Steel about plan
value and equipment. More details on
property taxes chicanery by companies

Research Group, P.O. Box 14198,

(2) Companies who fudge on
turning over sales taxes to the state or
who evade personal property taxes by
moving inventory or equipment out of
the state just before tax time are fertile
areas for investigation. Presently in
Missouri, state authorities are
investigating an annual loss of some
$100 million in state retail sales taxes
which are collected by businesses but
not remitted to state revenue offices.
Companies operating interstate
frequently play off one state against
another to escape taxes. The Illinois
Insurance Department has ordered
eleven insurance companies either to
move their real headquarters to Illinois
or drop their false "store-front" home
offices which are designed to escape
premium taxation by other states as
well as by Illinois. Commissioner Fred
Mauck estimates a $5 million a year tax
loss to Illinois unless this practice is
stopped.
TAX LIABILITY
On July 31, 1973 the Illinois
Department of Revenue issued a notice
of tax liability in the amount of $45.9
million against the Illinois Bell
Telephone Company for the period July
1967 to November 1970. The phone
company claims that there should be
no tax on receipts from alleged
interstate commerce-that is, long
distance calls out of state. This is a
frequent accountant's defense which
has been inadequately challenged by
understaffed state agencies.
(3) Poor management of state and
local pension-retirement, operating,
and capital funds lose citizens and
local government operating funds in
non-interest bearing bank accounts.
This shocking official irresponsibility
means less state revenues which could
lead to higher taxes for the people.
CAPITAL FUNDS
For the huge pension and capital
funds the problem is one of under
investment. There is utterly too much
secrecy surroundging facts which
citizens have a right to know. Con-
flicts of interest is one reason for
secrecy. Until this spring, for in-
stance, the Maryland State Treasurer
was also the head of a Baltimore bank
and a banking industry leader.
(4) State and local procurement of
services and supplies total nearly $40
billion a year. Mismanagement, cor-
ruption, and the frequent absense of
competitive bidding cost taxpayers at
least a quarter of that sum. For
example, more centralized purchasing
direct from manufacturers to avoid
unnecessary or wholesale markups
would promote great savings. The
Federal General Services Adminis-
tration urged this course of action on
the states over three years ago but
stopped when the wholesalers' trade
association protested to powerful
members of Congress and the White
House.
(5) State pension and retirement
funds invested in common stocks pay
a sizable commission to brokers.
Connecticut State Treasurer Robert
Berdon revolted against this practice
last year and obtained, over great
opposition by the securities industry, a
seat on the PBW exchange to save the
state $1 million a year in brokerage
fees. Other states (Washington, Cal-
ifornia, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania)
are watching the Connecticut move
because they are considering doing the
same thing.
So before state and local taxes go
up on the little taxpayer, citizens
should inquire of their state and local
officials what they are doing to recover
all of these lost revenues.

Intelligence reports White House criticism
by Jack Anderson
WASHINGTON- The Senate Watergate
Committee has obtained a White
House document which complains of
my access to secret intelligence
digests. It's true I see secret
intelligence reports, which often
contain some fascinating items. Here
are a few examples:
- The latest intelligence reports
warn that trouble may flare up along
the Chinese-Mongolian border. There
is evidence, according to the reports,
that the Soviets may be instigating an
incident.
- Intelligence reports from the
Middle East claim that Soviet missile
technicians have refused to operate the
new antiaircraft missiles that they have
installed in Syria. The Soviets
reportedly have been ordered to keep
out of direct combat. The Syrians,
therefore, have gone to Hanoi to recruit
North Vietnamese veterans who have
had experience operating the Soviet
missiles.
- Colonel Quaddafi, the Libyan
strongman, is preparing a little green
book of his sayings, patterned after the
little red book of Mao Tsetung's
thoughts. Arrangements have been
made to distribute tne green book
throughout the world. It will teach
Islamic socialism, which Qaddafi
claims is the middle course between
Communism and Capitalism.
- Perhaps the most surprising
intelligence reports tells of fighting
between North Vietnamese troops and
Cambodian insurgents in Cambodia.

Bicycle gripe
To Fountainhead:
As a law abiding motor vehicle-
operator, I feel that I have the right to
criticize those people who mount their
unmotorized vehicles and play
"car And then without warning
change into a "pedestrian" - without
dismounting. To all of you who ride in
the middle of the road but can't seem
to top 15 MPH, I would appreciate it if
vou could move to the right side of the
lane when you see me coming - I'm the
one in the black two-door.
And to people who like to
weave in and out of traffic, especially
They had been fighting together to
overthrow the government of Lon
Nol. But just as they appeared to be
winning, some units turned their guns
on one another in outbreaks over the
control of supplies.
Oil Planr A severe winter could
leave the nation critically short of
heating oils. Shortages could also
develop in propant gas and electrical
power. The Northwest is particularly
vulnerable to a power shortage.
The new energy czar, John love, is
already drafting emergen plans
which would go into effect in uase of a
bad winter. He is getting help from
both the Interior Department and the
Office of Emergency Planning. Their
proposals should be ready for final
White House approval by mid-October.
They will recommend curtailing
nonessential activities, such as theatre
performances, concerts and sporting
events, if the fuel oil shortage gets
serious enough. They will also
consider closing down schools during
extremely cold weather. The lost
school days would be added at the end
of the academic year when the weather
is warmer and the school buildings
require less heating.
As another fuel saving measure, the
temperatures will probably be lowered
in federal buildings. A campaign can
also be expected to urge all Americans
to turn down their thermometers at
home and cut down on the use of their
automobiles.
The emergency measures, or
course, will depend upon the weather.
CIA Yes Men: The late President
Kennedy blamed the Bav of Pigs
the blonde long-haired dude on the
green ten-speed who almost caused
me two wrecks in less than a minute,
may the fleas of a thousand camels
infest your arm-pits! And while I'm
taking your time, it'd be nice if all the
bicycles could be seen in the dark - get
a light before you get hit.
John Palmer
People gripe
To Fountainhead:
I just got back from the mall where
Matthew and Peter played to night, and
I am very disappointed - not in the
artists themselves, but in the people
who attended. I sat with some friends,
and we were constantly being trampled
by people going in and out near the
side of the lawn.
Also, there was more sound from
people carrying on casual conver-
sations than there was from the bass
player. Maybe you don't care for the
particular type of music that was
played. Fine! That still doesn't give
you any excuse for ruining it for the
ones of us who really wanted to
hear. You should have picked up your
blanket and left -once! Some dude
walked around us 4 different
times. That gets to be aggravating
after a while.
Maybe next time they can rope off a
special area for the people who like to
run their mouths, and also for those
blunder on the Central Intelligence
Agency. He declared afterward that he
"wanted to splinter the CIA in a
thousand pieces and scatter it to the
winds
When he cooled down, he called in
White House advisor Clark Clifford
who had drafted the legislation
establishing the CIA. As Clifford
remembers it, Kennedy said: "I made
some bad decisions on the Bay of
Pigs. I made these bad decisions
because I had bad information
Kennedy appointed Clifford to head
a civilian advisory board, which
recommended a great many reforms.
To make sure the President got good
information, a board of estimates was
established.
However, its estimates angered
President Nixon and his foreign
policy-czar, Henry Kissinger. They
complained that the board was
dominated by doves. My White House
sources say Kissinger got so upset
that he refused to read the estimates
from the CIA.
The. new CIA chief, William Colby,
is now preparing to abolish the board
of estimates. In its place, he intends
to choose a dozen experts from the
different divisions of the CIA. They
. I be known as national intelligence
officers.
Kissinger, meanwhile, has told the
CIA that he wants his intelligence
straight without any ideological
slant. He also wants to see the
minority views.
My CIA sources claim this is
exactly what, the board of estimates
was sending the White House. The

TO: ALL RESIDENCE HALL STUDENTS
Because of the fuel shortage and all
that crap, we are requiring that all
students restrict the use of lighting to
the hours between 8:30 p.m. and 8:35
p.m. The use of hot pads is hereby
prohibited and any violation will result
in automatic castration. Also we figure
that you students should be able to get
by the duration of the winter using
body heat. Any banging on the
radiators for the purpose of obtaining
more heat will result in automatic
decapitation and possible fornication.
With your cooperation we feel certain
that although you may feel uncom-
fortable at times. . you'll make it!
Thank you for your understanding,

Editor's note: The tollowing letter was
written on drawing paper in green,
purple, orange, red, blue and yellow
crayon. We wish we could have
reproduced it in the original hues, but
we have enough trouble being coherent
as it is now.
Dear Whoever writes the Editorials,
We (the two of us) feel that the
editorial in the Sept. 20th paper,
elimination of the board, they say, is a
signal that the White House really
wants estimates which always support
the President's policies.
Condemnation Rip-Offs: One of
the most controversial practices of
government is condemnation. The
government has the power to condemn
property supposedly for the public
good. But the way it works, owners
are often forced to see their property to
government agencies or corporations
at rockbottom prices.
Here are some recent examples: In
New York City, an old neighborhood
was torn down to make way for a
factory expansion. The residents,
mostly edlerly people who had lived
there all their lives, were given token
sums for their property. Now they
have no homes and no place to go.

Sex change satisfies Jorgensen
By SYDNEY ANN GREEN
Staff Writer
Christine Jorgensen. the first human to undergo a sex transformation, opened
the ECU lecture series Thursuay night
She traced her life from childhood to the present.
Jorgensen recalled her childhood as one of confusion and fear. She called her
home a "pretty average" place where sex was never discussed.
However she feels that her family was unaverage when it came to
intelligence. "My father was brilliant, almost a genius She said her father was
scientifically inclined.
Her mother was a warm emotional person who understood a persons
emotional needs.
"From these two elements, sensitivity and intelligence came to my sister and
I. Many times the intelligence had to surpass the emotional, " Miss Jrgensen
said .
She grew up knowing she had a problem but not whit it was. She knew she
was different from the other boys and girls. Books and motion pictures became
her "friends"
In World War II she was called to the draft and rejected twice for being
under-weight "In a way I was disappointed she turned her interests to studying
photography.
She continued to be bothered by a strong identity crisis and continued her
study of photography.
When World Warr II ended she was again called to the draft and became Ptc.
George W. Jorgensen She was stationed at Ft Dix almost all of her military
career. .
"Contrary to popular belief the military was good for me. For the first time i
was forced to live close to people. I discovered I wasn't the only one with
problems and discovered more about me and not George Jorgensen but some
one else that was to be Christine Jorgensen she said.
After the service. Miss Jorgensen went to Beaumont College in New York for
six months After she left Beaumont College she went back to studying
photography She then went to Yale to study.
In the library at Yale was a book called THE MALE HORMONE. It was the first
one like that she had ever seen. She discovered that no one is 100 percent male
or female. 80 percent is the highest anyone can be of one sex.
"I began to think that perhaps I had been dealing with the wrong thoughts. So
I started thinking in terms of bio-chemistry Jorgensen explained.
She then went to a laboratory technician school on the Gl bill because she
wanted to study more about what she had found.
It was during this time that she first mentioned to a doctor that she had come
close to how she felt. He was not shocked and said he had been reading some
newspaper articles about doctors doing research in masculinity and feminity in
Sweden.
"On May 1, 1950, I sailed for Sweden with a one way ticket. I didn't know
anyone and I didn't know what was waiting for me she said.
When she qot off in Denmark she SDoketo her cousin who told her she did not
have tc go to Sweden. While she had been on the hiah seas a Danish doctor
had been doing research in that area.
That began almost three years of experimenting. At fisrst all the study was
done on urine samples. The doctor then asked Jorgensen if he could do further
research The first operation was performed December of 1951 and the second in
December 1952. "I was at no time in any more danger than anyone else
undergoing normai urgery she said.
The story broke in December of 1952. Miss Jorgensen was furious that the
story had been leaked to the press. It was only 15 years later that she found out
who the person was that leaked the story.
hfte nad tne choice of staying in Europe after the story had broken. She
decided to come home. It had become a very big story in America.
Back in America Miss Jorgensen decided to enter show business. "I did it for
the money. Little did I know that I started a love affair for life she said.
In 1967 her biography was released and the movie was released in 1970. "I got
tired of Christine and now I'm on this lecture circuit she explained.
Jorgensen said she only took a few hormone injections although she now
takes hormone pills. "My body is in pretty much the function of a woman who
has had a hysterectomy. It can function but can't have children. The hormones
do change the body configuration she explained. She has never had a
menstiual cycle. "In a way I've been lucky she laughed. She can experience an
orgasm.
"My family was surprised when they found out she said. "I didn't tell them
why I went to Denmark. It was much more difficult for my father to accept. A
father will accept a daughter going male more readily rather than a son going
female. My communication with my parents was better after the operations
She said she had considered marriage twice, but both times for the wrong
reasons. "I have been engaged twice and in love twice but not with the same
people she said. "I don't know if I will marry in the future, I would rather live
with him than marry him. I don't think a piece of paper means that much except
when having children

Editor's Note: The following article is reprinted at the request of the
Provost and SGA office for student information.
By JIM DAVIS
SGA Secretary ol Academic Affairs
Beginning with this Fall quarter (1973-74 school year), there will
be a new system for dropping and adding courses at ECU. The rules
qoveming the new procedures are published in the new
Undergraduate Catalogue (1973-74). Since only new students will
receive the new 73-74 catalogue, following are the new regulations
plus some comments as to what they mean to ECU students.
DROPPING COURSES
Durinq the first 20 days of the quarter or first ten days of a
summer session term, excluding Saturdays and Sundays a student
may at his option, drop a course or courses without penalty. A
student who wishes to drop a course or courses must observe the
following procedure:
1 He must inform the appropriate dean, departmental chairman, or
person whom they designate and discuss the course or courses
which he wishes to drop.
2 He must obtain a drop-add form, complete it, and obtain the
siqnature of the University official with whom he has conferred.
3. He must next secure from the instructor or instructors the class
enrollment card or cards
4 Both the drop-add form and required class enrollment card or
cards must be taken by the student to the Registrars Office within
three class days.
COMPELLING NECESSITY
After the first 20 class days of a quarter or the first ten class days
of a summer session term, excluding Saturdays and Sundays, a
student may drop a course or courses without penalty only with the
permission of the Provost, the Vice Chancellor of Health Affairs or
the persons he may designate, or the Dean of the Division of
Continuing Education, as is appropriate.
Permission to drop a course or courses will be given only for
reasons of clear and compelling necessity. If denied permission to
drop the student may appeal the decision to a faculty appeals
committee. If permitted to drop, the student must deliver the
required forms to the office of the Registrar within three class days.
REQUIRE CLARIFICATION
There are three specific points of the new system which require
some clarification The first is that up to the twentieth or tenth day
deadline, whichever is applicable, a student cannot Prevented
from dropping a course The requirement for d.scuss.on with an
individual department ana the obtaining of a signature are not at
odds with this statement.
The student's department must sign the form if the student still
wishes to drop a course after consultation The signature is only a
means of insuring that the student has in fact been afforded the
opportunity of being counseled as to what effect, if any, dropping a
certain course will have on his academic plans.
For example, during the consultation the student may be
mformed that if he were to drop a particular course it would prevent
him from graduating unfl the following year due to the course being
a required course and that it would not be offered for another
year The signature is also a protection for the different departments
in that it provides evidence that a student was counseled.
The second point is that no matter when a student drops course,
there will be no penalty under the new system. This means that
when you drop you do not obtain a grade; there is no longer, at
anytime, a drop with failing or passing.
Regarding the third point, the new system insures that there will
be a uniform application of dropping which will be applied by the
offices of the Provost, Vice Chancellor of Health Affairs, or Dean of
the Division of Cntinuing Education to all ECU students.
Though there will be a uniform application, requests tor dropping
will be reviewed on an individual case by case basis. However, it
must be stressed that after the initial probation period has elapsed
the "permission to drop will be given only for reasons of clear and
compelling necessity "

mid-January at Madison Square Garden in New York.
With over 50 million Americans watching Thursday night, Ms King
defeated Riggs 6-4, 6-3, 6-3. The match again showed the great talent of five
time Wimbeldon champion Ms. King, the amazing physical condition of a 55
vear old Riggs, and the inept commentary of Rosie Casals. Ms. Casals
comments almost made women's tennis look bad and rivaled static as an
enemy of t.v.

'Bold Type denotes Home Games
Pirates face Paladins
Head coach Sonny Randle said
repeatedly following the North Carolina
State game. "don't write us
off "Some did Randle thinks, "but
now look at us. No one ever thought
we'd go on the road to places like
Mississippi Southern and Southern
lllinios and come back a winner. It
shows how far we've come and what
kind of class team we have
"It's good to be home and it's great
to come home with a 2-1 record
Opponents previewing the Pirates
through the Spring and Summer
expected a running game built around
Carlester Crumpler and quarterback
Carl Summerell. Well, those who
previewed are coming back for another
look because the Pirates boast four
effective runners-tailback Ken Stray-
horn, fullback Don Schink, Crumpler
and Summerell.
The rushing statistics are virtually,
even. Crumpler has gained 213 yards
on 39 carries while St ray horn, who won
the starting job following the season's
opener, has picked up 217 yards on 54
totes. Summerell, who rushed only
eight times in the first two games
combined, carried the football 11 times
at .Southern Illinois, scored three
touchdowns and gained 69 yards.
And don't forget Schink, the quiet
durable fullback who has 179 yards on
37 carries including 61 at SIU and a
game leading 89 at Southern
Mississippi.
Another outfit wearing purple and
gold is doing some rushing of its
own. it's the "Wild Dogs" defense,
lead by the tough front four of Cary
Goddette, Ken Moore, Joe Tkach and
Buddy Lowery and by the linebackers,
Danny Kepley, Billy Hibbs, Gary
Niklason and Skip Russell.
The "Wild Dogs" shut out Southern
Mississippi two weeks ago-the first
time P.W. Underwood had been
shutout in his college career. At SIU,
the "Wild Dogs" scored two
touchdowns on fumble recoveries in
the end zone.
That unit also produced a Southern
Conference Defensive Player of the
Week last week in Ken Moore.
The "Wild Dogs" may welcome
back a crucial missing link this
weekend if linebacker Butch Strawder-
man is available to play. Strawderman
sprained his knee during two-a-days
and has missed the first three
games. He has been working out in
full gear for two weeks, but is taking
his time to make sure the knee heals
correctly.
Newspaper headlines early in the
season bemoaned the loss of
placekicker Ricky McLester. Since
McLester left practice, no one has
lauded the efforts of placekicker Jim
Woody and frosh punter Jonathan
Deming. Woody booted two important
field goals at Southern Mississippi,
missed by inches from 37 yards away
at Southern Illinois and continues to
drill extra point boots.
Deming, who was thrown into
battle at N.C. State with no college
experience, has averaged 38 - plus
yards per punt including a 65 yard
boomer from his own end zone against
Southern Mississippi. At SIU last
weekend, he punted sja times for an
average of 37 yards.
The Pirate injury lists nothing more
than aches and pains following a hard
hitting game last week. No one is
expected to miss the Furman game,
although several players may be
slowed.
Last week was East Carolina's only
exposure to polyturf in 1973. The
players had mixed emotions. Most
thought the surface was very fast,
allowed harder hitting, but was very
irritating to arms and hands. Other
players complained of leg cramps from
playing on the surface as opposed to i
grass. The majority of complaints con-
cerned the hardness of the field.
Players said they bounced instead of
sliding.
EAST CAROLINA'S POWERHOUSE FULLBACK Don Shink blasts his way through a
large hole made in the Southern Mississippi line. Shink's running and attitude has
led the Pirates to a 2-1 record during 1973.

Salukis fall in bruising battle
By DAVE ENGLERT
The East Carolina gridders battered
and gouged their way past the Salukis
of Southern Illinois Saturday night by
the score of 42-25.
Quarterback Carl Summered was
the scoring hero of the game. He ran
for three touchdowns, but unfortu-
nately was hit hard on the third one
and suffered possible rib damage.
Senior linebacker Gary Niklason
was voted the "Outstanding Player of
the Game" by the SIU Sports Network.
The Pirates took the opening
kickoff on the Astroturf of McAndrew
Stadium and marched down the field
for a touchdown. Powerful running up
the middle by Kenny Strayhorn and
Don Shink through gaping holes
opened by the offensive line paved the
way. On third and goal to go at the
SIU two, Summerell faked a dive and
scored on a keeper around left
end. Jim Woody's extra point made
the score 7-0 with 10:46 left in the first
quarter.
Southern Illinois took the kickoff
but couldn't advance the ball. On
fourth and one they lined up in punt
formation at their own 30, only to have
the center snap the ball over the
punter's head. After a few crazy
bounces, Danny Kepley pounced on
the ball in the end zone for a
touchdown. Woody's kick was good,
upping the score to 14-0 with 9:10 left.
After the insuing kickoff, the
Salukis stalled again and were faced
with another punting situation at their
26 yard line. Unbelievably the SIU
center pulled an instant replay for
those who missed it the first
time. After another wild scramble, the
ball popped into Cary Codette's grasp
for still another touchdown. Woody
missed the kick, but with 7:19 still
remaining in the first quarter the
Pirates were on top 20-0.
SIU back Larry Perkins took the
kickoff and galloped 46 yards to the
ECU 41. A personal foul penalty
against the Bucs brought the ball down
to the 24. The Pirates held, but were
offside on the fieldgoal attempt. Fresh
man running back Melvin Moncrief
took advantage of the opportunity,
scoring on a 16 yard blast on the very
next play. This cut the Pirate margin
to 20-6.
ECU lost the ball on the following
possession due to a fumble by
Strayhorn. But two plays later the
Bucs had the ball back as defensive
tackle Ken Moore recovered a fumble
by SlU's Moncrief.

The quarter ended with Summerell
leading a drive down to the Southern
Illinois three yard line. On the first
play of the second quarter Summerell
scored again on the keeper play, and
with Woody's conversion the score was
27-6.
The two teams traded punts, with
the ECU drive highlighted by the
re-appearance of Carlester Crumpler.
Crumpler was in for Strayhorn, who
had been shaken up momentarily.
In speaking about these two after
the game, coach Randle had this to
say: "Kenny had another fine game,
and Crumpler is back in form. He
played a good game also
The Salukis then put together a fine
drive, highlighted by a 36 yard run by
Perkins, and scored with 7:13 left in
the half. This cut the Pirate margin to
27-12.
After an exchange of punts,
Southern Illinois had the ball at their
own 23 with 27 seconds left in the
half. A 23 yard pass play brought the
ball to the SIU 48 with three seconds
left. On the final play of the half the
Saluki fans celebrated an incredible 52
yard touchdown pass. The Pirates
went off the field knowing that it was a
whole new ball game, leading by only
nine, 27-18.
On Southern Illinois' second
possession of the half, they were faced
with a fourth and one at the ECU
38. With the Bucs expecting a run they
placed ten men on the line. And run
the Saluki runner did, finding no one in
his path after a burst through the
line. The score was now a barnburning
27-25.
The character of the Pirate club
shonw brightly when they were faced
with this crisis, as they moved 65
yards in seven plays on a scoring drive.
A Summerell to Benny Gibson pass
for 16, a Strayhorn run for 12, and
Summerell runs of 18 and 10 for the
touchdown highlighted the drive. It
was on the touchdown run that
Summerell was injured. Reserve Bob
Bailey came in and hit Gibson on a
pass as the Pirates went for the
two-point conversion, upping their lead
35-25 with 6:33 left in the third quarter.
On SlU's second play after the
kickoff, ECU defensive back Rusty
Markland intercepted a pass and
returned it 16 yards to the Saluki
15. On third and two Bailey fired a
bullet to Gibson for an eight yard
touchdown pass. Woody's conversion
with 4:39 left made the margin a more
comfortable one 42-25.
Bailey, a junior from Bloomingdale,
N.J filled in for Summerell the rest of
the way. "He did a fine job for us
coming off the bench said coach
Randle.
The fourth quarter was scoreless
but exciting nonetheless. Crumpler
almost broke away for a long
touchdown run, finally being caught
after weaving and sprinting for 64
yards.
Jim Bolding picked off his second
pass in as many games, adding a fine
23 yard runback to it.
The Pirates picked up 309 yards
rushing. Strayhorn has 95, Crumpler
85, Summerell 68, and Shink has
61. Moncrief of Southern lllionis led
all carriers with 127 yards.
Once again the Bucs had trouble
containing the opposition on kickoffs.
Southern Illinois picked up 194 yards
in this fashion.
The players would like nothing
better than to return home to a packed
Ficklen Stadium crowd in their home
opener Saturday night against the
undefeated Furman Paladins, who
surprised everyone by shutting out
Appalachian State 17-0 earlier this
season.
And, as coach Randle said after the
game: "Nobody in America thought
we'd be 2-1 now. It'll be a shame if we
don't have a big turnout after the way
the players have performed in the first
three games
HRATE QUARTERBACK CARL SUMMbhbLL leaps through Saluki defenders
in Saturday night's triumph. Summerell picked up 68 yards rushing in the
42-25 contest.
