School of Music 'disappointed 'with SGA help
By SUSAN QUINN
Staff Writer
Performing organizations in the ECU
School of Music were appropriated $1.000
by the SGA Legislature January 14 From
this appropriation, $250 was granted
without conditions, the other $750 was to
be matched by an equal amount by the
Music School.
The $1.000 appropriated is a
considerable cut from the original request
on December 3 for $10.000$5.000 to be
used for scholarships and $5,000 to be
used for support of student performing
organizations.
This appropriation was probably one
of the most discussed and reviewed
appropriations that has been granted by
the legislature this year. On November 5,
Bobby Sullivan, representative for the
music students asked for the SGA's
Tax assist

By BROWNIE WILSON
Staff Writer
Once again this year the Accounting
Society will be helping students and staff
members to complete their income tax
forms and answer any questions
concerning taxes.
For the second year, accounting
students will be lending this assistance
as a service project to the student body
and campus community. The project is
also valuable practical experience for the
Accounting Society.
"Our service is open to everyone on
campus for any reason, from answering a
question to completion of any income tax
form said Dave Englert. treasurer of the
Accounting Society.
According to Englert the project was
very successful last year both for the
students and staff members that took
advantage of the service.
"If things go smoothly this year we
hope to open a branch in the downtown
Greenville area to serve the townspeople
also next year, this would be a great asset
to the community said Englert.
"This is our service project to the
campus and student body, so we would
like anyone who needs assistance to
please use us in anyway possible stated
Englert.
Miss Gwen Potter, advisor of the
Accounting Society, made clear that this
was a student undertaking and that any
service rendered would be free of charge.
"All information will be held in
confidence also Englert went on.
The project started on February 1 and
will run until April 15 with a break over the
quarter.
The office will be in Room 305 of the
Wright Building on campus. The time will
be from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m Monday
through Friday and from 10:00 a.m. to
12:00 noon on Saturday.
"We certainly hope everyone will use

Book thefts on campus
bring stiff penalties
By SUSAN SHERMAN
Staff Writer
The problem of book thefts on the
ECU campus is growing out of hand
according to Debbie Roe, chairwoman of
the ECU Honor Council.
Roe said that the Council usually
hears from two to four cases of book theft
each week. Most of the students brought
before the Council express the excuse, "I
didn't know it was stealing
The consequences for this type of
theft can be as stiff as three quarters
suspension from East Carolina according
to Roe. A first offense usually draws a
suspended suspension. This simply
means that if the student is prosecuted
for book theft again, his suspension will
immediately be effective.
Roe also stated that many students
do not realize that any books found lying
around can be turned in to the bookstore
of "lost and found" in the CU. They then
can be returned to the rightful owner.
The bookstore will prosecute if they
suspect the book is being sold for extra
money. Many of these books do not even
have the real owner's name in them.
The Honor Council stressed that
sutdents should remain aware of the
consequences for their actions before
they try to sell any book they might have
found lying around campus.
During the committee meeting on
December 10 Dean Everett Pittman of the
Music School said "we need the money in
order to continue to give ECU a national
reputation. The SGA has supported the
ic school before and we want that
ng back We have a music school
of real distinction competing with schools
that are funded otherwise, the Appala-
chian State University music school is
granted $19,000 by their student
government and UNC-Greensboro music
school is granted $10,000 from their
student government
Legislator Eric Ripper felt tnat the
music school should go elsewhere to ask
for money and said "I can't see giving
them any money The bill was tabled
until the next week so that further
research could be made about area
expenses that might possibly be cut.
The appropriations committee met
again on January 7 with music student
representative Bobby Sullivan and Dean
Pittman. Domme said that $5,000
for scholarships had been decided as
unfavorably by the committee and so the
remaining $5,000 for performing organi-
zations was a sum that had to be
cut. Ripper said that he was still against
giving the music school any money
because he felt that they could raise the
money or get it elsewhere.
Dean Pittman replied, "We recruit
musicians just as football players are
recruited and if we don't get out on tours
with our best performers where other
students can see them, then we don't get
the best musicians interested in out
school
The bill was tabled again until January
14. At this meeting it was decided that
$1,000 would be appropriated instead of
$5,000. An estimated 30 music students
attended this meeting and were almost
once again asked to leave. After the
students were finally allowed to stay in
the open meeting, Jim Honeycutt said
that he felt that the committee had wasted
a lot of time. "I don't mind giving money
for performances here on campus but I do
mind giving money for off-campus
performances he added.
Bill Beckner proposed that $1,000 be
granted to be matched by $1,000. A
friendly amendment was made that
guaranteed $250 and stating that only
$750 be matched. The committee also
inserted the stipulation that the money
should be used on campus and not on
tours as originally planned.
Approximately 45 music students
attended the legislature meeting January
14 and waited for the final decision to be
made on the appropriation. After 30
minutes of debate the $1,000 was
appropriated with the stipulations that the

Correction
The Jan. 31 issue of the
Fountainhead incorrectly reported that Dr.
Ralph Steele, director of the Parks,
Recreation and Conservation department
was leaving ECU. Dr. Steele is, in fact,
not leaving but merely changing positions
within his department. A letter from
Steele explaining his changes will be
printed in Thursday's Fountainhead.

Articles published
Two-articles by ECU history instructor
Karl Rodabaugh have been selected for
publication by two scholarly journals.
His "The Alliance in Politics: The
Alabama Gubernatorial Election of 1890
will appear in the Alabama Historical
Quarterly.
The article discusses the entry of the
large and dissatisfied Farmers' Alliance
into Alabama politics, and explains the
event as the inevitable result of the failure
of Alabama's traditional one-party system
to provide a forum for meaningful
discussion of the farmers' grievances.
The second article. "The Protest Vote
in Alabama. 1892-1896 is to be included
in the Journal of Alabama Academy of
Sciences. It analyzes voting patterns in
Alabama during the years of greatest
power of the Populist party, and
concludes that the protest vote resulted
from economic woes.
The article was based on research
done with computer, and produced
convincing results that support conclu-
sions reached by other historians using
traditional methods

ECU policewoman sees no major problems

Summer school sessions
'will be different' this year
By BROWNIE WILSON
Staff Writer
To a number of East Carolina students
this year's summer school sessions will
be quite different from those experienced
in the past.
The difference will be the introduction
of two special four week sessions in
addition to the regular five and half week
programs. These four week sessions will
be overlapped by the usual sessions.
However, the new four week programs will
not apply to all students.
According to Dr. Susan J. McDaniel,
assistant provost, the sessions were
added to help public school teachers
working towards another degree or
re-certification in their field.
"Many teachers sign contracts for ten
months and are unable to attend the first
and last of the five and a half week
sessions said Dr McDaniel.
"The new four week program will allow
them to gain the same number of credit
hours in a shorter time, but the daily
classes will meet for a longer period of
the day she pointed out.
Dr. McDaniel went on to add that the
shortened courses would be mostly
education and methods courses.
Another change for summer school
will be in the Department of Speech
Pathology and Audiology. The depart-
ment will have one single eight week
session that will overlap the two four
week sessions.
"The amount of credit hours will total
15 instead of the usual twenty hours that
can be earned in the two five and a half
week sessions said Dr. McDaniel.
In an important change from the past
the Faculty Senate voted to have
no Saturday classes this summer. How-
ever, the student will still spend the same
amount of time in the classroom.
"During the week classes will meet a
little longer to make up for the time
missed by not having classes on
Saturday said Dr McDaniel

A rock hound
Parks: 'stones keep him happy'
By ELLERBE WILLIAMS
Staff Writer
What could a person do with 14
bushels of rocks7 Become a rock hound,
of course. At least that is what Dr Oral
Parks, political science professor at East
Carolina, did
Parks' wife inherited the rocks in 1953
from her father, who was a personal friend
of the men who discovered the Wyoming
jade fields He helped haul the jade for
the men and ultimately vound up with
quite a bit of the green rock himself,
which he passed on to n s daughter.
Rock collecting is a apidly increasing
nobby in the United States and has grown
in the last ten or fifteen years from 25,000
participants to between six and seven
million collectors.
Rock hounds may be divided into three
oasic groups, said Parks. Mineral hounds
collect rocks in their raw form and do not
cut or polish the stones. Hard-rock
hounds collect semi-precious gem stones
which they cut and polish to a smooth
finish. Gem stone collectors use such
stones as -ubies and sapphires which
they cut or facit into planes and
angles Gem stones allow light to reflect
through them whereas semi-precious
stones do not
There are approximately 17,000
� -rent varieties of minerals and it is
necessary for a hound to specialize in a
certain type of stone. Parks is interested
in the hard-rock group, and is particularly
partial to Brazillian agate. "The agate is
ess expensive than many other stones
and is one of the most beautiful Parks
said
Parks uses the agate, which he buys
the pound, to make items such as
pookends. paperweights and . pendents.
He also uses jade and petrified wood but
fers agate because of its unique
at n Each piece is different but is
��rally brown with steaks of red and
running through
Parks usually takes two trips yearly
across the United btates in search of
rocks. These trips concentrate primarily
on the western states where greater
supplies of rocks are found. Last year
Parks covered 8,300 miles and 17 states in
his search for rocks, but he pointed out
that North Carolina is also a good place to
hunt. "We have the most varied selection
of minerals here in North Carolina of all
the states. Unfortunately the eastern part
has nothing, but from the piedmont west,
we have over 3.300 different kindsinclud-
ing diamonds
' Commerci-11 mines are very popular
among rock t jnds. The collector buys
bock� of muc which have already been
dug Tid c arches through it for
stones. The fee for these mines is about
$3 plus a dollar for five buckets of
mud. The buckets hold about a
gallon. Parks finds the commercial mines
a good source and the time and effort of
digging is also eliminated.
Parks is in the process of establishing
a rock hound club in Greenville. About
$600 would be needed to buy equipment
needed for cutting and polishing. A
diamond saw is used to cut the stones
into slabs The blade of this saw is
circular and is .04 inches in
width. Instead of teeth, the blade is split
and filled with diamond dust.
Parks owns a 12 inch bla hich sells
for around $33 wholesale, but sizes go up
to 36 inches which sell for $500. Parks
feels that a 16 inch blade would be
sufficient for the club. A trim saw is used
for finer cutting and grinding wheels are
used for the final polishing.
An attempt was made last year to
establish a lapidary course, the art of
cutting and polishing stones, at Pitt
County Technical Institute. Although
student response was favorable the
course had to be abandoned because no
one was available to teach it. Parks is
hopeful, however, that the club could
have its own class. "There have been
several people who have told me they are
interested in a club. All I have to do is get

ROCK HOUNDS are on the increase according to Dr. Oral Parks, who is an avid rock
collector.

In conjunction with his interest in
rocks Parks hopes to someday take a trip
school
to Brazil. The supply of good rocks is
more plentiful there than in any other
country. "Rocks are so plentiful down
there that you have to kick them out of the
way to find dirt Parks stated Until he
gets there, however, the United States
still has enough stones around to keep
him happy.

average of three or four thousand
students usually attended summer school
and that no change in attendance figures
was expected.
"We hope to have a bulletin out within
the next couple of weeks giving complete
nformation concerning summer school
for 1974 said Dr. McDaniel.
Summer school will begin on June 6
this year with the first five and a half week
session. The first four week session will
begin on June 17, as will the first eight
week session for the Department of
Speech Pathology and Audiology. Both
the five and a half and four week sessions
will end on July 12.
The second five and a half and four
week sessions will begin on July 15. The

himself with the arrangements and

'The Way We Were A Real Love Story
Friday night. I sauntered in to see
what I was sure was another tear-jerking,
strictly sickly sentimental, boy-meets-girl-
fall-m-and-then-out-of-love sort of story.
Two hours later. I stumbled out, dazzled,
pemiexed. moved, to join the ever-
growing bandwagon who are hailing "The
Way We Were" as one of THE Movies of
The Year.
Barbara Streisand, portraying the
deadly serious, ambitious, politically
involved Jewish girl, and Robert Redford
as the independent, physical, talented
young writer, are both fantastically
believable, tangible. Indeed, they make
the movie. Streisand, in this movie, is
one of the most beautiful women to be so
ugly that I have ever seen. As she.
herself, says to Redford: "I know I'm
attractive-sort of Streisand's great
appeal lies in her vitality, her love affair
with life (at one point in the movie she
holds eleven different jobs at once), and
her unswerving, blind love for and loyalty
to Redford. Streisand is magnificent.
pitiful, and almost embarrassingly moving
in her attempts to snare the man she
desperately wants.
Redford, recently proclaimed by
Newsweek to be "the logical successor to
Marlon Brando and Paul Newman as the
most charismatic American male presence
on the screen today" penetrates the movie
with his presence. Utilmately, he
dominates the movie as he does the
impressionable Streisand But rightly
so. Redford has a style of acting that is
best explained by the director of "The
Way We Were Sydney Pollack. He said
of Redford's work "It's very uncerebral.
unacademic. purely gut level " Comment-
ing on Redford's performance as a
budding young author in the movie whose
work has for the first time been read out
loud in class. Pollack analyzes "Bob's
(Redford's) face conveyed a superb
combination of emotions He was
embarrassed, and full of pride, and young
and wanting to cry and not wanting to cry
at the same time I agree Redford uses
restraint in his work, yet he is powerfully
potent
Nostalgia is on the boom with today's
movie-goers, and so the 40s and 50s
setting of this movie is thus lucrative I,
for one. find a sort of fascination with the
war days when patriotism was at a fever
level (exemplified beautifully by Streisand
in her role), and FDR was the idol of
all. The McCarthy witch hunt for
"Commies" is also examined, as a
Hollywood writer Redford is under
investigation, and the movie throws out
some serious indictment of the American
system.
Basically, however. Streisand and
Redford's movie is a painfully accurate
story of two people who love the hell out
of each other, but have different values,
perspectives. and opinic is which
ultimately drive them apart. Love does
not conquer all. opposites may attract but
shouldn't marry, and babies will not help
a sinking man age For once, someone

Fountainhead regrets to inform you that SGA President B.ll Bodenhamer
inoperative, since his birth certificate has not been seen and approved by this
'r9Should0sa.d certificate not be presented within 21 days, we will have to assume that
Mr. Bodenhamer is nonexistent.
Fountainhead j
We feel that the above announcement makes as much sense as Mr. Bodenhamer's
claim that the Pub Board bylaws require approval; for, just as Mr. Bodenhamer need
not be approved" in order to exist, so the legislature need not "approve" bylaws which
it designated itself.
Fountainhead also feels that the SGA President is wrong in his attempts to impeach
SGA Treasurer Mike Ertis. We feel that Mr. Bodenhamer's voice is not the only one in
student government and that his powers have been unjustifiably expanded. We feel
that Mr. Ertis' attempt to safeguard student funds was correct. Further, Fountainhead
feels that Mr. Bodenhamer's absurd and questionable actions have made him
inoperative, and we invite someone, anyone, to inject sense into the SGA. Mr. Ertis
has. at least, tried.

NATO troubled
By BARRY GOLDWATER
Our friends in Europe are deeply
troubled, and with good reason.
Rapidly moving developments have
suddenly rendered the NATO alliance
seriously weakened.
Nations of Europe, dependent for their
military security upon an American
nuclear shield, worry about our new
relationship with the Soviet Union and a
policy of detente which is being
developed through two-way negotiations.
At the same time, Europe is dependent
economically upon Arabian oil, which has
suddenly become a political pawn used by
Middle East nations attempting to
mobilize outside nations against Israel.
Whether we like it or not, the United
States is a long way from the time when
Europe's troubles will not be our
troubles. At a time when the Soviet Union
is building its military forces in all areas,
NATA finds itself distressed on two
important counts: Soviet nuclear wea-
pons are more numerous than our own
and her navy is rapidly becoming one of
the largest in the world-extending armed
might into every strategic waterway of the
world.
Our allies in Western Europe also
understand that the Soviet Union has
enormous manpower and conventional
weapons available for use in Europe
should the leaders of the Kremlin decide
on aggressive action. They take some
comfort, as do officials in the United
States, from the belief that the Soviet
Union is presently too concerned with the
threat posed by an increasingly powerful
China to risk committing any large
amounts of its conventional strength in an
aggressive move toward Western Europe.
Regardless, our NATO allies have to
wonder what kind of detente we are
negotiating with the Soviet Union when
the Russians are obviously bent on
surpassing the United States in all areas
of military might. They also have to be
concerned with the second round of the
Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT-II)
which began last year in Geneva,
Switzerland. The talks involve negoti-
ations between the United States and the
Soviet Union on ways and means of
restricting the kinds and numbers of
offensive strategic neclear weapons. For
our part, the concern will be over what
kinds of quantities of weapons the United
States would need to deter the Sovier
Union from launching an all-out nuclear
war.
Secretary of Defense James R.
Schlesinger has already indicated what
the Pentagon's attitude is on this
question. He has issued a blunt appeal
for the development by the United States
of new and better strategic weapons
systems. His recommendation counter-
acts to some degree the position of
Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who
continues to argue for negotiations based
on an assumption of mutual interest
rather than new arms. However, even
Secretary Kissinger is now admitting that
the United States has fallen behind as the
Russians push ahead with building up
their nuclear arsenal.
The irony in this siutation is the fact
that most of the developments which are
bothering our friends in Europe took place
during 1973, which the Nixon Adminis-
tration had designated as "the year of
Europe but which actually turned out to
be "the year of the Middle East
WORLD WAR III
Some thoughtful military and
economic Washington experts are
beginning to believe that the nations of
the globe are, at this moment, closer to
World War III than at any time since the
Axis was defeated.
The cause of this peril is, of coursefl
the worldwide energy crisis. The factors,
both international and domestic, now
coming to light make it plain that the
conference on Feb. 11 in Washington of
oil consuming nations may just turn out
to be "the last best hope on earth
Unless the leaders of the affected
nations develop a program of co-operation
reaching around the entire world, massive
industrial and economic dislocations will
occur and perhaps move some nations to
drastic remedies.
Official Washington has just begun to
absorb the awful truth about what the
Arab oil producers can do to Europe,
Japan and the United States if they
continue to use their oil supplies for
international political purposes. From the
actions already taken or talked about, it is
possible to see a financial crisis
developing that could destroy the
economy of the entire Western World.
In fact, the Arab nations which contain
only a tiny proportion of the world's
population hold a powerful monopoly.
Some of the price rises talked about in
producing areas such as Kuwait and
Saudi Arabia could siphon off most of the
world's currency. They could load Swiss
bank accounts maintained by members of
the Arab oil countries will billions of
dollars while depression, massive
unemployment, and widespread suffering
swept over areas which are presently
dependent upon the Arab nations for the
energy to turn their wheels, heat their
home and run their industry. Many
military men and economists cannot
visualize a situation in which Europe and
Japan would meekly submit to economic
choas and destruction? As one observer
commented, "The Arabs have oil, but
don't forget France, Britain and the United
States have the nuclear bomb
The danger of World War III is
astounding in a number of respects. The
cause of the peril is so irksome and so
personal to all individuals that the world's
population hasn't yet tumbled to the
gravity of what is taking place. Quite
understandably, people are more worried
about how to get gasoline, stay warm and
keep their jobs than to do more than
engage in a bitter and furile attempt to
place the bla.ne for th shortage. They
don't yet see the Arab oil embargo,
compounded by price increases and
political demands involving Israel, for
what it is-the international match which
could tough off a conflagration.
As the winter progresses and the crisis
deepens, more and more is being heard
about what some writers refer to as "the
unthinkable solution
What they mean is a solution based on
force; on the assumption that before they
submit to wrecking their economies, their
political systems, their positions in the
world, the countries that desperately need
oil will resort to military power to take it
away from the Arabs.

White Ball
To Fountain head:
I must be coming up in the world! I
know of no other time when a letter to the
editor received a rebuttal in a "news"
story. My letter concerning the APO's
White Ball did just this.
There are, however, a few things that
need to be said. First, due to the fact that
the last paragraph of my letter was not
printed, some misunderstanding has
arisen. My mention of a young lady
receiving a one hundred dollar bill was
meant only to show that large sums of
money were involved. This was a minor
point. My last paragraph (the one not
there) made the major point - that groups
and individuals who contribute to White
Ball have a right to be reasonably assured
that the money they contribute will indeed
go to a worthy cause. The APO's
assertion that an "outsider" who oversaw
the counting could lead to a leak in the
individual totals does not alter this fact.
Now we come to point two. This year
the counting of the contributions was
witnessed by a Superior Court
Judge. Well, maybe my letter did some
good, for now those groups and
individuals who contributed are reason-
ably assured that the counting was on the
level (of course we still don't know what
happened to those containers of coins
and paper before they were handed to that
judge).
Now point number three slaps us in
the face. We find out that a "mere"
$337.28 was used to buy flowers and
finance a party. So, all that money which
was collected for a worthy cause did, in
fact. NOT go to that cause. They had a
party! I hope that those groups and
individuals who contributed and were not
allowed to attend said party aren't too
upset - they might not contribute next
year. I wonder what the members of a
group who contributed, say, only about
$300 are thinking today, realizing that
their money went to the financing of a
party and not to the Easter Seals
Association. No wonder White Ball has
been such a hush-hush affair in the past.
Indeed, I am glad that my letter to the
editor was rebutted in a "news"
story. Now we know what goes on. And
this is not meant to imply that I am
against fund raising for worthy
causes. However, I do have some
suggestions for the APO's. If they are
concerned with collecting money for a
worthy cause and not for a party why
don't they collect it in locked boxes that
only a Superior Court judge has the key
for. Why don't they give ALL the money
to that cause and finance the plaque, the
roses and the party out of their own
pockets. That would show that they,
indeed, are concerned with the cause and
not the money.
Finally, (and this is my last
paragraph), it those that contributed are
really concerned with the cause and not
with being the winner of a non-contest,
why don't they just eliminate the
middleman and give the money director to
the Easter Seals Association. One more
thing I wonder how many of those
crippled children who could have
benefited from that $337.28 were invited
to the party.

About dorm
To Fountainhead:
Dear Unfortunate Companions:
(Actually this letter has no real
objective other than letting out steam.) I
am an upperclassman-type person who is
currently living in a freshman dorm due
solely to convenience of location, size of
rooms and a sink. I cannot name the
dorm, but I trust the girls will recognize
me. This particular dormitory has a
currently fashionable problem, that of a
fanatical dorm administrator. At th is
point, I can't decide which is worse .and
administrator that "administers" with an
overzealousness leading to unpopularity
with the girls, or one that abuses
confidences, slanders, is sometimes an
obnoxious drunk and plays favoritism to
an unbelievable extent. Some choice,
huh?
I know this letter sounds one-sided
but for once I would like to be heard
without having to put up with a lot of
sweet-talking and lies from either our
president (who is a worm) or tne
administrator herslef (who is chief slug).
Something ought to be done about the
problems we seem to have, but if y'all
understood what the girls in here are up
against, you would understand why there
is absolutely no one-believe me, we've
checked - NO ONE who could help us
work them out. But anyway, this is our
suggestion: a survey given to all
dormitory residents pertaining to the
reliability and ability of the dorm
administrator to carry out her obligations
to the girls and the staff. This survey
would call not only for ratings of the
performance of duties but also would ask
for comments on general attitudes and
suggestions for improvement. Then with
these firmly in hand, maybe somebody
would wake up and realize that these
people should be replaced .or moved to
a location less harmful to one's health.
If this same crap just goes on and on
like it has tor two solid years now, uoa
knows I and my fellow inmates pity the
poor girls who will be assigned here to
live under this kindly humane soul that
runs everything and everybody - including
d.f. - once she knows what she can get
away with.
Thanks,
needed that,
T. Kettle
Language
To Fountainhead:
If Mr. Mentha is so concerned as to
"how indefinite adjectives lead to
imprecision of language then he should
consider taking his master's degree under
my tutelage. The first think I would teach
him is that one should never label a
non-verbal individual as being "dumb" as
i i ii� ma i tmm
he did in his recent epistle to Mary
Winters.
Mr. Mentha would then begin to
realize why there continued to be a low
correlation between language capacity
and intelligence.

Ertis friends
To Fountainhead:
We are writing this letter in support of
the SGA treasurer, Mike Ertis. and the
charges leveled against him by the
illustrious SGA President, William H.
Bodenhamer. We fully support the
decision of Mr. Ertis to withhold funds
from out student fees for personal letters
proclaiming the "great" accomplishments
of Bodenhamer1 s term in office.
The purpose of the Fountainhead is to
inform students of happenings on our
campus. We the undersigned question
why Mr. Bodenhamer does not desire to
use this means of communication, rather
than exploit our fund Is he not aware of
the paper shortage? We commend Mr.
Ertis and the office which he upholds, for
defending our student rights. It is the
opinion of the undersigned that if any
impeachment is to be instigated it should
be against William H. Bodenhamer rather
than Mike Ertis.

Bike reply
John Schofield
City Planner
Greenville, N.C. 27834
Dear Mr. Schofield:
The article contained in the Janua.y
24th issue of the Fountainhead entitled
"Bicycle Paths Are Planned Here" has
raised several questions.
I would like to take this opportunity to
clarify a couple of points concerning the
article. A reference made to a joint effort
on behalf of the Student Government with
the city of Greenville, in fact any other
organization, in planning a bike path
system was a misunderstanding.
The fact is, any plans which I am
associated with only concerns on-campus
bike paths. I do hope however, that a
cooperative effort with the city of
Greenville in a joing on-campus and
off-campus bike trail system can be
achieved.
The second point I would like to clarify
concerns cost. The approximate cost of
$75,000 to $100,000 for the construction
of bike paths on and off-campus was only
a rough estimate and was meant to be
only that.
In closing, I would like to say we are
and will continue to move forward in
establishing a bike path system for East
Carolina University.
Sincerely,
Bill Bodenhamer
President, SGA
Basketball
To Fountainhead:
I know I am not the only one who has
this following complaint concerning the
atrocious calibre of officiating in the
Men's Intramural Basketball Program. I
am certain I have the support of the
majority of the participants.
First, I would like to compliment the
fine job of the Director of Intramurals in
securing very competent officials for this
past fall's Intramural Football league.
They were really great and appeared to
have their stuff together, but the officials
in the basketball program are exactly the
opposite. I'll admit there are a few who
really know how to officiate a game, but
for the most part, the others are not
worthy of calling a "bush league"
game. These obviously have not been
associated with the game for long, and all
they know is what they see on the NBA
game of the week, which they probably
watch only once a month anyhow. I
realize the referees hace a hard job and
catch a lot of back-talk and lip, but there
never has been a ref that did not. Most of
it comes as a result of lousy calls
anyhow. Why can't the Director under-
stand that a lot of us take a lot of pride
and seriousness in our little intramural
games the same way Danny Kepley takes
his linebacking position serious when he
dons the purple and gold on fall Saturday
afternoon in Ficklen Stadium. You may
think that it's "just a game" and we are
stupid for taking it serious, but like I said
a lot us take pride in it. But there is no
way we can take pride in a game that
incompetent officials turn into a big joke.
I think the Director should review the
criteria involved in selecting basketball
officials in the future. Why let this ruin an
otherwise excellent and praise-worthy job
done by the Director of Mens Intramurals.

History lecture
"Historical Controversies of the
Seventeenth Century" will be discussed
by William H. Cobb of the ECU history
faculty at the Wed Feb. 6 meeting of
Phi Sigma lota, the ECU Romance
Languages honor society.
The public is invited to attend the
meeting, which is scheduled for 8 p.m. in
room 201 of the Student Union.
Dr. Cobb's lecture will be a brief
critique of several of the major issues
among historians of the 17th century,
with emphasis on the political problems
of France and Spain at the time.
(CPS)The severe paper shortage, which
is putting the squeeze on many
newspapers across the country, has
stimulated backward response from
several major paper manufacturers-they
are dropping their recycles lines.
According to the International Institute
for Environmental Affairs, major paper
producers are quoted as saying recycled
paper "hasn't caught on" because large
buyers have found it just as expensive as
virgin paper.
In addition, the Institute reported
paper manufacturers are cutting back on
production of lighter, less expensive
stocks, because they can get more money
by selling only the heavier, more
ecologically wasteful varieties.

Toastmasters come to Greenville
By GLENN HARGETT
Staff Writer
Toastmasters, who claim to be able to
help anyone in oratory and leadership
abilities, have come to Greenville.
A group of local businessmen,
professors, and students are currently
forming a branch of the internationally
acclaimed group.
The Toastmasters prepare its members
for today's communication and leadership
demands. By using Toastmaster's pro-
grams the participants improve their
ability to say what they are thinking and
learn to think about what others are
saying.
Toastmasters learn to evaluate the
ideas of others and hear what they listen
(o. By working together the members
develop the ability to accept evaluation
Gets 'blanket' billing
and to give it. This ability hopefully will
carry over to his job and to his friends.
Together the Toastmasters learn to
prepare themselves for conducting and
participating in meetings. The group
attempts to obtain this by trying to
improve their use of humor, listening
abilities and their parlimentary procedure.
Members work to try to rid themselves
of the butterfly syndrome, that uneasy
feeling before one speaks.
In Greenville this group was begun
through the efforts of Chris Hay, a
present student at ECU. Hay was
formerly a member of Toastmasters in
another city. He felt that Toastmasters
iave "helped me a great deal
An organizational meeting was held
Jan. 23 with the results hopeful. The
group will be meeting next Feb. 5 at 7
p.m. at the Bonanza Sirloin Pit.
Hay adds that one can gain from the
"exchange of ideas" that exists when
such a diverse group comes together for
self-improvement.
Toe shortage?
(CPSZNS)-The small toe is disappearing
from the human race.
According to Dr. Phillip Tobias of the
University of Witwatersrand in South
Africa, people's small toes are slowly
growing smaller. He said this is
happening because shoes are cramping
human feet-and someday, in the
not-too-distant-future, small toes may be
gone forever.
Dr. Tobias reported small toes aren't
the only things being threatened, but
because the foods we eat are cooked and
soft, wisdom teeth are on the way out.
Indians 'promisesexciting show'
By DR. ALBERT PERTALION
Special to Fountainhead
B.Y.O.B.
Bring-your-own-blanket that is. The
new Playhouse production of INDIANS
will openJriday, February the 8th at 8:15
in the Studio Theatre. This production
will have a unique staging and seating
arrangement: the action will surround the
audience and everyone will sit on a
padded carpet. The seating will make it
easier to follow the action of the
show. Everyone is invited to bring a
blanket for extra padding.
INDIANS promises to be an exciting
evening in the theatres. The show is a
great polemic about the American
penchant for war and violence, but it is
also a gaudy, noisy wild west show. The
real hero of INDIANS is Chief Sittina
Bill. His message delivered to Buffalo
Bill, is the dramatic representation of 19th
century land aggrandizers.
"You took from us by force what you
could have obtained by love. We didn't
need all that land and you didn't either
Donald Biehn is directing INDIANS
and Russell Chesson will play Sitting
Bill. Cody is played by Gregory Smith.
Students are urged to get their tickets
early. The seating area is small. To-make
more seats available the run of the show
will be extended form the 8th through the
20th, except Sundays. Tickets are on sale
at the Drama Department office and on
performance nights at the Studio Theatre
box office.

Election Reform
is a major issue
The question of "election reform"
promises to be a major issue in the
months ahead, with the possibility that
new laws governing financing of political
campaigns may be effective in time for
the 1974 elections.
Out of the Watergate mess have come
insistent demands for the mandatory use
of tax revenues doled out to political
candidates to finance federal election
campaigns. Ostensibly, evils and abuses
of private campaign funding would end.
This drastic plan is traveling under the
guise of "election reform
Thanks to U.S. Sen. James B. Allen of
Alabama and his recent filibuster, fina
action on such Treasury raids was put oft
until the current session of Congress.
Americans now will have a choice
between such new schemes and genuine
reform.
In the forefront of efforts to strengthen
present laws in order to eliminate abuses
such as revealed by Watergate is the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States. After careful study of numerous
proposals, it favors these positive election
reform actions:
-Limitations on private contributions
to individual candidates, with identifi-
cation of contributors. (It believes $3,000
would be a 'reasonable' limitation.)
-Limitations on expenditures by
candidates.
-Reasonable tax deductions and
credits for contributions, in order to
encourage smaller contributors.
-Use of $1 and $2 contributions under
the tax checkoff laws, because it is
voluntary.
-Establishment of an independent
agency to enforce the new law.
-Requirement that contributions in
excess of $50 be by check.
-Strict identification of all contributors
of $100 or more.

To-Morrow's Sports
By JACK MORROW
Sports Editor
DID YOU REALLY MEAN IT, DOC?
For those of you who missed Channel Six's sports news a few Saturdays ago, I
shall brina you up to date on what happened.
Our illustrious Chancellor, Dr. Leo Jenkins, proposed on this program a new
athletic conference which would be called the Mid-Southern Conference. The schools
hesuggested to compose the conference were: East Carolina, William ancI Mary,
Richmond the University of South Carolina, West Virginia and any team in the Atlantic
Coast Conference which felt that the conference was overwhelming them.
This is a very sound proposal and a very good league should resul . The reason that
this idea came about is due mainly to the fact that Davidson College announced a
retrenching policy in football. The Wildcats have stopped scheduling the big powers in
the conference namely Richmond, William and Mary and East Carolina
Dr Jenkins feels that in order for a conference to be a conference, all schools mus
play one another if they have a team in that sport. By only choosing the schools that
thpv want to Dlav this only serves to weaken the conference.
MOr Jenkins continued in his interview, he was very much in favor of the Pirates
olavinq as many ACC teams as possible. However, the Chancellor did slip upon one
statement He stated that the East Carolina varsity swimmers swim only one ACC team
anc �S the other teams in the ACC will not swim them. Dr. Jenkins let me ask you to
cheVk the 1973-74 swimming schedule where you will find that the East Carolina
swimming team competes against four ACC squads this year, namely: UNC N�
State, Maryland and the University ofVirginia. No other sport on campus can make that
StaTh??ootball team played two ACC teams, basketball played two, soccer played
three N C State is the only ACC team with the intestinal fortitude to wrestle us, and of
course lacrosse and crew used to schedule as many ACC teams as possible until the
administration took their sport away from them.
Now fwou W seem thatif the Chancellor of our University is so "gung-ho" on our
becoming a member of the ACC "pie in the sky" program, that we would be promoting
ttese sports rather than disbanding them. Further, he would be suggesting and
allowinghe coaches involved in scheduling, that they do all possible to play ACC
teatSall starts at the top. The good executive passes his suggestions down to his
subordinates who in turn carry out his desires. Dr. Jenkins, since you have now been
SfSub kSJSon stating your views, I assume that you are passing these viewpoints
din though your staff, the athletic department and coaches involved to carry out your
washes As head of this University this is your prerogative, your job and your
responsibility to the students.
Allegheny College had a swimming meet scheduled with Kenyon College, which
had auite a few of their swimmers out with the 24-hour virus.
Thev recovered quickly enough, but coach Sam Freas did not want to subject his
sJrebuspiro Meadville, Pa. to Gambler, Ohio. St. I he did
not wt to clncelThe meet. The'result? The meet was held, even though both teams

Furman edges Pirates
By STEVE TOMPKINS
Staff Writer
The Pirate's basketball team continued
to play cliff-hangers, as two baskets
separated defeat from victory last week.
Wed. night Old Dominion, sixth
ranked in the APsmall college poll,
defeated the Pirates 80-78 and Saturday
afternoon Furman edged by 72-70.
On Wed. at Minges Coliseum the
Monarchs were able to win at the foul
line, as they hit 20 of 26 shots while the
Pirates only went to the foul line three
times in the entire game.
In contrast ECU outscored Old
Dominion by 16 points from the field.
The Pirates found themselves behind
for almost the entire second half, until
Donnie Owens led a late charge to bring
ECUback from a 17 point deficit.
Roger Atkinson opened the game with
a field goal, and scored the Pirate's first
six points.
The Pirates moved out to a lead of 16-8
on a basket by Larry Hunt. Hunt replaced
Nicky White who had a slight knee injury,
and did a fine job by contributing 12
points and 13 rebounds.
After Reggie Lee hit two straight
jumpers making the score 22-14, Old
Dominion changed gears and dominated
the rest of the half.
Joel Copeland, the leading scorer in
the game for the Monarchs with 24 points,
scored on a three point play and after a
Pirate basket led the Monarchs' to 13
straight points.
Jay Roundtree of Old Dominion hit
two straight jumpers to make the lead
40-26, and the Pirates found themselves
down 48-34 at halftime.
The Monarchs continued their
rampage in the second half, as they
extended their lead to 19 points at 63-44
and appeared to be running the Bucs out
of the gym.
Owens wasn't quite a believer yet and
hit a long jumper, the first of his eight
straight baskets from long range.
Using a pressing defense the Pirates
forced the Monarchs into numerous
turnovers until Hunt hit a basket trimming
the lead to one at 77-76 with 2:08
remaining.
The Pirates couldn't put the added
touch into their effort as they turned the
ball over once and missed on another
opportunity to take the lead.
For ECU Owens led the scoring with
20 points, followed by Atkinson with 16,
and Lee, Hunt and Robert Geter with 12
Saturday afternoon on regional
television against Furman the Pirates
dominated the game but lost making their
overall record 9-9 and their conference
record to 5-4 for a third place standing.
Leading the entire game until four
minutes into the second half, the Bucs
lost due to 20 turnovers compared to
Furman's nine and the presence of 71"
Fessor Leonard.
Leonard, reinstated after a short
disciplinary period invoked by Coach Joe
Williams, came into the game midway
through the first half and rallied the
Paladins from a 23-12 deficit.
The Pirates, with White and Geter
dominating the defensive boards, jumped
out into an eight point lead before the
"Moose" appeared.
Leonard continually stopped ECU from
breaking the game open. Combining with
freshman Bruce Grimm's long range
jumpers Leonard brought the Paladins
back to within one at 38-37 at halftime.
The lead exchanged hands in the
second half until Reggie Lee put ECU into
its final lead with a baseline
jumper. Seconds later Furman's Clyde
Mayes tapped in a missed shot giving
Furman the lead for good with 16 minutes
remaining.
The Pirates didn't quit and stayed
close all the way.
The turning point in the game seemed
to come when Leonard smashed Owens
sending him sprawling and the ball out of
bounds. No foul was called and Furman
took possession. Leonard then hit a
decisive turn-around jumper for the
paladins giving them a 72-68 lead.
The Bucs still weren't through though
as Owens hit two foul shots and the
Pirates stole the ball. A last second shot
by Owens failed and Furman enhanced its
first place in the conference with a 7-1
record.
Nicky White led the Pirate scoring with
18 points, followed by Geter and Lee with
12 each and Atkinson and Owens with 10
apiece.
The Pirates return home Wed. night to
face Buffalo State University at 8:00 in
Minges Coliseum.
MINGES NATATORIUM will be the site of the nineteenth annual Atlantic Seaboard
Interscholastic Swimming and Diving Championships. The meet begins Saturday
morning at 10 a.m.

Swimmers gain two big victories
Coach Ray Scharf's varsity swimmers
really put it all together this past weekend
as they travelled to Virginia. The Pirates
swamped Richmond University, 70-42 on
Friday afternoon, and then on Saturday
the tankers came through in many a
clutch situation to defeat the University of
Virginia, 65-48.
East Carolina won 9 of 13 events
against Richmond, who was considered
o be one of the top contenders for the
Pirates' Southern Conference crown.
Even though Scharf experimented by
swimming a few swimmers in events
which they have not been accustomed to,
the margin of victory was still quite
Paul Schiffel and Ross Bohlken carried
the flag for the Bucs as they were both
double winners. Schiffel captured the
200-yard individual medley and the
200-yard butterfly event, while Bohlken
was victorious in the 50 and the 500-yard
freestyle events.
Other East Carolina first place
finishers were turned in by the 400-yard
medley relay (Ron Hughes, Charlie Kemp,
Mike Bretting and Steve Ruedlinger), Jim
Hadley won the 100-yard freestyle, Greg
Hinchman captured the 100-yard back-
stroke event, Kemp was a winner in the
200-yard breastroke and Jack Morrow
easily captured three-meter diving
competition.
The Spiders were a much improved
team from last year, but East Carolina's
depth and experience was too much to
contend with.
Against the University of Virginia a
packed house at University Hall
Natatorium and an upset-minded band of
Cavaliers awaited the Pirate tankers. East
Carolina responded by turning in their
finest performance of the season to down
the Wahoos.
A happy Ray Scharf called the
contest, "An exciting meet all the way
through and he had loads of praise for
his squad.
Jack Morrow and Ross Bohlken were
double winners for East Carolina. Bohl-
ken was victorious in the 100 and 200-yard
freestyle events and Morrow was
triumphant in both the one and the
three-meter diving events.
The Pirates' 400-yard medley relay
(Hinchman, Kemp, Bretting and Rued-
linger) led the meet off in thrilling fashion
as they were given first place on a judge's
decision over the Cavaliers.
Paul Schiffel and Larry Green swam
tremendous races to finish second and
third in the 1000-yard freestyle event
behind Virginia's heralded Mark Berna-
dino.
Bohlken and Ron Schnell finished first
and third respectively in the 200-yard
freestyle race with Schnell recording his
best time ever in that event.
Jim Hadley survived a slow start to
come back and finish second in the
50-yard freestyle and Schiffel and Kemp
finished second and third in the 200-yard
individual medley to give the Bucs a 24-19
lead going into the diving event.
Morrow and Ken Morin finished first
and second to up the advantage to 32-20.
The 200-yard butterfly event was the
key to the Cavaliers' comeback as they
finished first and second. Pirate Mike
Bretting, recovering from a year-long
intestinal problem, swam a great race, but
still finished third.
Bohlken came back to take the
100-yard freestyle event and then Schiffel
and Greg Hinchman finished first and
third in the 200-yard backstroke event.
Schiffel had to put on a last 50-yard sprint
to pull out his victory.
Larry Green managed to get a second
place in the 500-yard freestyle event and
Kemp swam a fine race to finish second
in the 200-yard breastroke race. This set
the stage for the divers. All East Carolina
had to do was finish first and second in
the three-meter diving events, then victory
would be theirs.
The "M and M Boys" (Morrow and
Morin) went back to work and they put on
a fine show for the large crowd and
wrapped up the victory.
The 400-yaid freestyle relay (Hadley,
Hinchman, Ruedlinger and Bohlken) put
the icing on the cake as they edged the
Cavaliers, whose cheers of "Number eight
would be great" (U. Va. was looking for
their eighth win of the year) turned to
"Number eight will be late
The Pirates, presently 4-4 on the
season will next travel to Washington,
D.C. to face Catholic University on
Saturday, February 16.
The Buc J.Vs will host Bishop Ireton
and Calvert Hall in a triple dual meet at
3:30 p.m. in Minges Pool this Friday prior
to the ASISDC on Saturday.
Grapplers tangle with Wolf pack
After a ten-day "working layoff East
Carolina University's undefeated wrestlers
get back into the routine this week,
traveling to Raleigh tonight for a match
with unbeaten Atlantic Coast Conference
power North Carolina State. Friday night,
the Pirates return to Minges Coliseum for
an 8:00 contest with conference
challenger William & Mary.
Tht Pirates, while seeking to boost
Southern Conference prestige at the
expense of the State Wolfpack, face a
more important task when William & Mary
Lady Cagers break even
comes to town.
The Indians, sporting an impressive
line-up of individual stars, have
steamrolled to a 9-2 record, losing only to
Clarion State (4th in the NCAA in 1973)
and powerful Maryland, which has won
the ACC championship for the past
twenty years.

disposed of by the Pirates, 36-4, in East
Carolina's last outing, William & Mary
figures to be the chief threat to ECU'S bit
to claim a third consecutive conference
championship.
"As in past years, William & Mary has
another very strong team cautions Pirate
Coach John Welborn. "Pending the
outcome of our match with N.C. State,
they represent the biggest obstacle in our
path to another undefeated season.
"They match up with us very closely
man-for-man Welborn adds. "Without
doubt, they will be out toughest
conference challenger. We also look for
them to extend us in the conference
tournament
It will be the nest to last home match
of the season for the East Carolina
grapplers. The Pirates host small college
power Pembroke State Feb. 14, in their
last bout prior to the tournament, Feb.
22-23 at Appalachian State.

into the lead behind the scoring of
Sheilah Cotton and Lu Ann Swain.

The East Carolina Women's Gymnastic
team participated in two meets last week
and met disappointing defeats each time.
On Friday, the girls traveled to Chapel
Hill for a meet with UNC and Winthrop
College. The ECU squad apparently had
won a narrow victory over the Tar Heels,
but a rules technicality cost the Bucs a
penalty which gave UNC a 55.8 to 55.6
victory. Winthrop placed third with 21.65
points.
Joan Fulp placed in three events with
a first in the uneven bars and second
place finishes in the floor exercises and
balance beam. Gail Phillips placed
second on the bars and third on the floor
exercises. Freshman Linda Lane's out-
standing performance in vaulting brought
her a first place.
Wednesday night, the women Pirates
traveled to Duke, where they placed a
disappointing third to Appalachian State
and Duke. Hampered by injuries, the girls
placed only one girl in the top threein any
event. Miss Fulp placed third on the
balance beam.
The next contest for the women will be
But the rain only gets in sometime,
And the sun never leaves you alone.
February 8 in Columbia, S.C. Tne
opponents will be South Carolina and
University of Florida-Gainesville.
Lady tankers split
Last Friday afternoon the women's
swimming team journeyed to Columbia,
S.C. to participate in a double-dual
meet. The lady Pirates lost to Florida
State 88-51, but defeated weak Columbia
College 111-18.
The women did not swim under the
best of conditions. They left Greenville at
nine o'clock Friday morning and arrived in
Columbia at three thirty. They hardly had
time to get their feet wet before the start
of the meet at four.
Two of the lady Bucs were double
winners in spite of the situation. Linda
Smiley was first in both the 50 and
100-yard butterfly. Beverly Osborn tri-
umphed in the 200 and 400-yard freestyle
events.
Coach Eric Orders awarded the Gold
Award, symbolic of outstanding per-
formance, to Misses Smiley and Osborn.
The Gold Award, given in recognition
of outstanding effort, was won by Jan
Masters for the third consecutive week.
The lady swimmers close out their
season at the National meet to be held
March 14, 15 and 16 at Penn State.
