Needs support and money
By BARBARA TURNER
Staff Writer
How would you like an opportunity to
evaluate your professors? During the
week of February 10th, the Teacher
Evaluation Committee will be running a
survey that will include approximately
two-thirds of the student body. The
survey will be given only in the classes of
professors who consent to it.
TWO PART SURVEY
Part I of the survey will be subjective
and is designed specifically to give
percentages. Part II, however, is for the
student's comments. Comments obtained
in this section should be "as if you were
telling a friend about a class you have had
and things he wants to know about before
he gets involved in it said Mary Ellis,
co-chairman of the Teacher Evaluation
Committee. Part II will be correlated by
ten students from each department. The
chairman of each department selects one
student and this student selects nine
other students to tally the results.
EVALUATION PROCESS
Part I is mainly for research correlation
of variables containing the student's sex,
grade point average, and the grade
expected for the course. Different
hypotheses could be worked on from this
background information.
In the evaluation process the student
blackens either space 5 (best), 1 (worst), 3
(average), 2 (below average) or 4 (above
average, but not the greatest).
WECU pushes for FM
By SUSAN SHERMAN
Staff Writer
WECU, East Carolina's campus radio
station is still attempting to be licensed
as an FM station.
Alan Dehmer, news director and
chairman of the committee working for a
FM license, stated that there was a
"mountain of things to do" before taking
their request to the Federal Communi-
cation Commission.
In order to acquire an FM license, a
station must prove to the FCC that it will
be an asset to the community. At this
time, the station must also apply for an
FM frequency to operate on.
The research and work which precedes
the license and frequency application
includes legal representation and of
course, money. The station's efforts must
also be supported by both public and
campus organization, the University
administration and the SGA.
Dehmer said that the station now has
the backing of VISTA and Rev. Earnhardt,
a United Methodist minister associated
with the Wesley Foundation. The station
also has petitions containing the
signatures of approximately five thousand
students and Greenville residents.
In order to gain more support the
station will ask such campus organi-
zations as European and African Area
Studies and several community groups.
These groups will include the NAACP and
ACLU. Dehmer also stresses that any
campus or community organization
interested in supporting the FM station
should contact him at WECU or by calling
758-6656.
ALAN UbHMtK
Before the FCC will consider an
application for a FM license, the station
must as stated before, prove it will be an
asset to the community. It must also
present an acceptable program format to
the Commission. This format must
include a schedule of programs which will
benefit both the campus and community.
Dehmer says that the proposed special
programs include broadcasts of city
council, county commissioner, and SGA
meetings. Religious programs are pro-
posed for Sunday mornings plus the
broadcast of the Great Decisions
program.
A FM station will also allow the
students and others within a fifteen mile
radius to enjoy a split format in stereo
music. This split format includes the "top
40" during the day and progressive music
at night. Dehmer explains that progres-
sive music is aimed toward those persons
cultured in listening to music. Album
selections will include a combination of
rock, jazz and contemporary music. Deh-
mer added that these selections will not
include bubblegum (Donny Osmond,
Partridge family) music.
The proposed beginning of the FM
station is the Winter Quarter of 1974.
Dehmer will be spending the next two
months gathering the needed support and
money to back this request for WECU.
Questions typical of Part II are:
Fairness in Grading
5. is consistently fair, just, and impartial
1. is unjust in grading and openly shows
favoritism.
Tolerance of Contrasting Viewpoints
5. basically tolerant; listens to student
comments and welcomes questions
1. basically intolerant, suppresses
question-asking, won't listen to student
comments
Stimulation of Curiosity
5. inspires effort and desire for
independent investigation
1. effectively destroys interest in subject
The back page of the questionnaire
will have space for comments. This will
not limit the student's evaluation only to
the committee's specific questions.
. SURVEY GOALS
Ellis discussed the goals of the
survey: "The survey will attempt to be
representative of the student's view of
undergraduate education here at ECU. It
will also help the professors to know the
reactions fo their students to their
teaching methods. It will help the
conscientious student device a course
program that will be of most benefit to
him. It's not really meant to help the lazy
students find crib courses or easy
professors, but primarily to help the
student in scheduling courses in terms of
giving him an idea of what to expect. (For
example, the number of tests and term
papers he should expect). It is primarily
for the students
STARTED BY SGA
The Teacher Evaluation program
started by the SGA "came from the faculty
committee that is working on the teacher
evaluation. Their evaluation will be used
primarily to choose those faculty
members who deserve a ards. The
faculty committee is not certain if they
will publish their results. Basically that is
the reason we have decided to carry out
this evaluation on our own, said Ellis.
Results of the survey will tentatively
be available in a free student publication-
prior to the end of spring quarter. This
publication will cost the SGA approxi-
mately $7,000. It will be an annual
publication and will deal with 665 faculty
members.
EVERY CLASS
The publication will be in paragraph
form containing narrative ideas on the
professor. He or she will be evaluated for
every class he (or she) teaches, because
(s)he often does not teach the same way
for every course.
RESULTS AVAILABLE
Professors will be given an
opportunity to see copies of their
evaluation in advance of the publication's
release. Therefore, if they feel they would
like to respond to their students'
evaluation, they may submit their
responses. These will be printed directly
following the students' evaluations in the
publication. They would also be given a
chance to re-structure their course or
defend themselves if need be.

Anyone wanting more information or
who wants to help the committee may

Hurst, chairman (758-3253).

Rebel returns despite cut in funds
4
,
i
By CAROLYN DAVIS
Staff Writer
The Rebel is back and working with a
cut in both funds and number of
publications.
"This year due to pressure from the
SGA and Pub Board all publications were
cut back said Phil Arrington, Rebel
editor.
"We started with $18,000 a year to
work with for three publications. Last
May Bill Bodenhamer sent us a letter
recommending that our funds be cut to
$9,000 a year. In September the Pub
Board cut us to $6,000 a year Arrington
said.
This last cut was made without any
representation from The Rebel, since it
was without an editor at the time,
according to Arrington.
Sandy Penfield took the position of
Rebel editor last May but was unable to
hold the position this fall because of
"personal and physical reasons
Arrington, editor of the 73 Rebel, was
reappointed without competition to the
position.
"I knew the publication was in trouble
so I applied for the position and was
accepted he said. "I think a question
that should be asked of the student body
is why no one ever runs for the position of
Rebel editor he continued.
Soon after Arrington resumed his
position as editor, he received a notice
from SGA President Bodenhamer stating
that the Rebel would be cut in its number
of publications from quarterly to annually,
said Arrington.
"I think it's a subtle political move to
do away with the publication altogether
Arrington said. "I feel it puts a lot more
pressure on us
Arrington explained that the public-
ation cut produces too much of a gap
between the appearance of The Rebel,
making it easy for students to forget the
publication is still in operation. "A lot of
people on this campus don't know we
exist Arrington said.
SPRING 74 EDITION
The estimated cost of this year's
Rebel is $5,959 out of the allotted $6,000
according to Arrington. The length will
run 40 to 50 pages, depending on the
prices offered by the printers. National
Graphics will probably be printing the
1974 edition since they have done the past
three issues of The Rebel.
Although the yearly editions of The
Rebel usually feature material collected
from fall, winter, and spring quarters, the
Spring 1974 Rebel will actually be a
winter-spring edition.
Since The Rebel had no editor during
fall quarter of 1973, no material was
submitted.
After it was announced that the Rebel
would begin accepting material for its
spring edition, the response was
"excellent according to Arrington. "In
two weeks, enough material was
submitted and accepted to produce
two-thirds of The Rebel Arrington said.
"The campus responded so well that
there was no need to accept submissions
from outsiders
The Rebel is a student publication and
strives to use a majority of student
mUNP- 09
PHIL ARRINGTON, 1974 Rebel editor
material. According to Arrington, every
student who has material accepted is paid
for their works. The rates of pay are
relative to the quantity and quality of the
submissions, he said.
Payments for literary and photographic
submissions run as follows: illustrations
$8 to $10; poetry, $5 to $8; and short
stories and fiction, $8 to $10. All money
used for paying contributors is taken from
the allotted $6,000.
THEME
The theme for the Spring 74 Rebel
will revolve around selections from two
noted authors.
One will be a paragraph taken from
Oscar Wilde's essay, "Decay of the Lion
and the other a statement made by
Picasso: "Art is a lie that helps you
realize the truth
Arrington feels that he accomplishes
the statement of theme "more subtly than
past editors
He does not plan to make a blatant
statement of theme, but rather establish it
through forms of submissions and
marginalquotes of authors and poets "to
set the tone and position of the
magazine
"In the past, themes used were war,
poverty, and freedom he said. "These
political metaphors are sluggish, outdated
and narrow
"We try to view the magazine as
apolitical, but we can't get rid of it in
poetry altogether
What about the possibility of
controversial material? "We are including
some pieces that while they are not
controversial In our eyes, they could be to
some said Arrington. There is an
assumption held by many that literary
publications have a particular license in
as much as they can't take things out of
context, especially in poetry he said,
"so we have made a statement to take
care of possible controversy
As a possible safeguard against
controversy that may result from the
contents of the publication, Arrington will
include a piece in the front of The Rebel
stating that the ideas expressed in the
issue are not necessarily those held by
the magazine staff itself.
SUBMISSIONS ACCEPTED
Since the theme of The Rebel is set
largely by the student material in the
magazine, Arrington aims at selecting
"the best in creative and aesthetic aspects
in campus material
However, to date, more submissions
have been accepted than rejected by
Arrington. Those submissions that have
been rejected have been classified by
Arrington as "not for publication
These rejected pieces, he said, are
"extremely hearts and flowers and are
syrupy "I don't mean that these
submissions are without value in their
author's own experiences, but they are
not suitable for publication
Because of the often large numbers of
submissions offered by single contribu-
tors, Arrington often has to choose the
best of the works of a contributor in order
to allow more students to have their
pieces published.
"Just because someone had one or
two pieces accepted doesn't mean we
don't I'ke all of their work he said. "We
have ti be selective so we can include
more sti dents
Arrington is able to use a great deal
more diversity in literature than in art in
the magazine, he said. "The art holds the
magazine together visually. If it didn't the
magazine would be hodge-podge and
sloppy
PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS
Arrington takes the best of the
offerings because of the professional
a'ms of The Rebel.
Each edition is sent to the American
Collegiate Press (ACP) for a critical
grading. The rating of All American, the
highest rating offered by ACP, was
achieved by the Spring 1972, Fall 1972
and Winter 1972 editions of The
Rebel. The Spring 1973 edition was also
sent to be graded, but results have not
returned.
ACP received about 2,500 manuscripts
and yearbooks for criticism and rating
according to Arrington.
The magazine is graded sectionally by
ACP on a 2,000 point scale. By having the
magazine graded you get an idea where
you stand said Arrington. In Spring of
1972 when Arrington was editor for The
Rebel, it received a grade of 1,800 points.
"I think this year's Rebel will come
closest to what I've wanted. I'm more at
home now with what I want and know
what I want to express Arrington said of
the Spring 74 Rebel.
REBEL STAFF
Arrington chooses his own staff
from friends he thinks have the ability and
experience to make The Rebel a success.
The staff consists of: Sandy Penfield
and Marvin Hunt, co-ordinating editors;
Glenn Lewis, art director; and David
Swinck, Business manager.
With the exception of Penfield, an
undergraduate, all staff members are
graduate students at ECU.
"All members of the staff were chosen
for their experience except Hunt. He had
worked close with The Rebel in the past
and had good critical knowledge said
Arrington.
"It's practically mandatory that the
staff members have a highly defined and
workable criticism he said.
Staff members are also paid from the
allotted $6,000, as there is no outside
revenue for The Rebel. We're thinking
about ad revenue if cuts continue. It
makes it kind of hard to exist when funds
keep getting cut said Arrington.
EXPECTED DATE
The expected date of delivery of the
Spring 74 Rebel is one week before
reading day of spring quarter, although it
may be earlier.
"We need two weeks to look over the
final copy and the printers need 30 days
said Arlington.
After The Rebel is compiled, it willbe
read by Rebel advisor, Ovid Pierce of the
English department.
Pierce's job is not one of censorship,
said Anington. "He will look over the
final submission and express his opinion
of approval or disapproval.
Depending on time taken by the final
steps, The Rebel will be delivered to the
campus sometime after the first week in
May.

Overseas study information
Office serves international students needs
By MIKE PARSONS
Special to Fountainhead
An office dedicated to serving ECU
students in areas concerning international
student problems, overseas study
programs and summer employment
opportunities has opened in the social
science building.
The need for a focal point in
international affairs was impressed on the
administration through the efforts of Bob
Lucas, SGA Secretary of International
Affairs, Ron Scronce, international
student advisor, Richard Barefoot and
Jamshid Jafari. The result was the
opening of the office specifically directed
to:
-Aid the ECU international student in
solving the problems encountered in
coming to the United States for
schooling;
-Inform ECU students of the
opportunities available for studying
overseas;
-Inform ECU students of the
opportunities for summer employment in
other countries.
The international student has many
problems unique to his situation,
explained Lucas. He comes to American
colleges with only the knowledge of
English which he gained in school. This
handicaps him in understanding the slang
which we have used all our life, Lucas
added.
HELP PROVIDED
Before the office was created, the
international students had no one to help
them in becoming adjusted to campus
life. They would get off the plane, go
through the same orientation as other
students which assumes that they have
lived in the area before and would be lost
in the lines in front of the General College
advisor's office. The new office will try to
correct that dilemma.
Present plans are to have a system
where someone from campus will meet
them when they arrive in Greenville. They
will have two students, one boy and one
girl, who will volunteer to act as a brother
BOB
and sister to them through their first
quarter at ECU.
These students will help them get
acquainted with ths campus and the
town, and will answer questions about
differences in customs of the local
area. The students will also try to work
through civic groups to give the
international student the chance to make
friends with people who are not students.
The office will be available to the
international student who has questions
on course selections or other areas which
may have puzzled him about campus life.
In addition, the office will provide a
gathering point where international
LUCAS
students can take a break from studies
and find someone to just talk
to. Barefoot, who operates the off ice, will
offer opinions from the worst politician in
the area to the best looking girl on
campus at no extra charge.
Gen. John Lang, vice chancellor for
external affairs, has given the office of
international affairs all authority neces-
sary to expand recruitment of internation-
al students and provide an information
and communication center catering to
their needs. The office will also work to
secure a counterpart in the administration
who will serve as a full-time advisor to the
students.
International students are only one of
the concerns of the office, however.
Lucas and Barefoot have worked to
accumulate a library of information
concerning education and employment
opportunities overseas for the ECU
student. The university does not have any
overseas campuses directly associated
with it at present. However, Lang has
been working toward obtaining a $94,300
grant which will allow three professors
and 15 students to pursue a course in
Eastern studies in Japan.
JOB OPPORTUNITIES
Summer job opportunities for ECU
students can be found through the
information available in the office.
Opportunities for jobs overseas usually
require some knowledge of the language,
emphasized Barefoot. �
There are some cases however, that
American college students can find
employment where their mastery of
English is important.
One of these cases is Finland. A
student can live in Finland for a summer
with his only duties being to help a child
master English. In return, the family he is
with will give him room, board and pocket
money for entertainment and personal
use. The student has to provide his own
transportation between the countries.
Other opportunities for employment
include work at resorts, hotels and
restaurants. All of these vary in regard to
required knowledge of language, pay and
work permits.
A passport and visa are required in
most countries before applying for a
job. The information and forms for
obtaining these, as well as international
student cards, are available in the office
as well. International student cards can
help obtain discounts for plays, cinemas,
transportation and many other events
while traveling overseas.
The new" office is located in
SA-106. Barefoot is there most days from
3-5 p.m as well as irregular times
throughout the day. He will be happy to
talk to anyone that needs information
about these things.

SGA has $45,000 surplus
FOUNTAINHEADVOL 5, NO. 337 FEB. 1974

Bodenhamerproposes spending
BY SUSAN QUINN
Staff Writer
SGA President Bill Bodenhamer
announced six proposals for future
expenditures of a $45,000 surplus SGA
funds in a speech Monday night
concerning SGA activities during the past
year.
The SGA has this $45,000 surplus at
the present because SGA funds are
carried over from the previous year. There
are remaining assets because auditors are
one year behind and there are extra funds
left in the present budget amounting to a
total of $45,000 that is available to be
spent.
Bodenhamer suggested that the
money be spent for the following areas:
-$500 be spent to send the 1971-72
"All-American" ECU yearbook to all N.C.
high schools for recruitment purposes.
-$5,000 be appropriated as a loan fund for
international students so that these
students might be able to borrow $200 for
a year at no interest.
-$1,000 be appropriated for programs in
the freshman orientation program.
-$8,000 be appropriated so that the WRC
and the SGA president could set up a
system, whereby freshman women in
Fleming, Jarvis, and Cotten would have
an open curfew five nights a week.
-$7,000 be appropriated to establish a
teacher evaluation system. This system
would allow for the evaluation of each
teacher once a year by one of their
classes. This evaluation would be
published in a magazine form and
distributed free of charge to students.
See related story in this issue.
-$12,000 be appropriated to buy another
bus to insure continued success of the
transportation system at ECU and to
assure maximum usage of student
transportation fees.
Bodenhamer also proposed a constitu-
tional amendment that would alter the
membership of the publications board.
Two members would be elected by
students, two members would be
appointed by the administration and two
would be appointed by the SGA president
and legislature. "This would allow for
more supervision which is badly needed
in publication Bodenhamer said.
"The SGA has been successful due to
working directly with the administration
this year Bodenhamer said. "Every
program has had direct imput of the
administration he added.
"The legislature, co-equal of the
executive council, has been another
reason for the success of the SGA this
year. The legislators have had a keen
insight into the needs of the student
body
"I have had the most efficient and
effective cabinet ever in the SGA
Bodenhamer declared. He then proceeded
to introduce each member of his cabinet
and explain their positions and some of
their accomplishments during the past
year. He stated the following in his
address:
Jim Davis, secretary of academic
affairs initiated the following programs:
(1) placing student members on each
Faculty Senate committee, (2) a drop-add
policy whereby a student may drop a
course during the first 20 days of a regular
quater, (3) a forgiveness policy - which
allows readmission of students after a
three year absence and removal of D's and
'F's, and (4) a teacher evaluation system.
Maurice Huntley, secretary of minority
affairs has encouraged minority students
to be involved in the SGA and has helped
in minority orientation during the summer
and initiating the idea of publishing
recruiting booklets concerning minority
affairs.
Attorney General Tom Clare has
worked with a local lawyer in operating a
legal advice system for students.
The office of international affairs has
been "new but productive under the
direction of Bob Lucas Bodenhamer
continued. Lucas has met with interna-
tional students to find out problems that
they are facing on the ECU campus and '
has written a five page report entitled
lUMCLAHt
mmmmmmmm
BROOKS BEAR
"The Current Status of International
Students' Needs He has also tried to
help establish an international studies
major, and has promoted ECU foreign
study programs. Lucas also started a
program which locates student summer
employment in Europe. He now has an
office in S-A 106 where students can
come by to get information concerning
international studies or summer employ-
ment in Europe.
Brooks Bear, secretary of internal
affiars, has worked with all of the projects
in each of the cabinet offices.
"Brooks is directly responsible for the
code-a-phone, or the SGA hotline, and an
increased student loan fund so that
students may now borrow $25 a month
from the SGA at no interest rate. She is
also responsible for placing suggestion
boxes on campus.
mm
Bodenhamer, continuing his access-
ment of his cabinet, said, "Ivan Peacock
has been our refrigerator man. When we
entered the SGA the refrigerator business
was in a state of chaos. Today everything
is recorded and expenses have been cut in
half. Ivey has also been my chief
advisor
"Walter Mann, secretary of transport-
ation, has helped develop one of the most
efficient transportation systems on any
college campus in the state. Today we
own two buses and and an estimated
1,250 people ride the buses each day
Thanks to vice president Freida Clark
we were able to have a successful
homecoming this year, Bodenhamer
states, and "Mike Ertis has been an
exceptional treasurer although we have
had our differences
BILL BODENHAMER
The SGA will be sending the above
speech to every ECU student according to
Bodenhamer.
"If students must pay $25.50 per year
for SGA funds we owe it to them to let
them know how it's been spent he
continued.
Bodenhamer concluded his speech
announcing that spring SGA elections will
be held March 14 and the newly elected
officers will assume their positions of
office by April 14.

Persecution of marijuana

THE MARIJUANA FARMERS
CPS Book Review
By KAY JOSLIN
A review of THE MARIJUANA
FARMERS: HEMP CULTS AND CUL-
TURES by Jack Frazier. Published by
Solar Age Press, Box 53022, New Orleans
70160. 133 pp. $2.75.
(CPS)-Any book whose profits will go to
the banning of strip mining would seem a
worthwhile investment, but that's not the
only point in favor of THE MARIJUANA
FARMERS. Author Jack Frazier also
intends to donate a portion of his profits
to the revival of the hemp industry in
North America.
The book's opening traces marijuana
back to the first known people to turn on,
the Scythians, through Indian and Celtic
cultures, to its cultivation by early
American Colonists who used it for fiber
and paper, making marijuana one of the
colonial states' major industries.
Although he is never very convincing
on the relevance of the issue, Frazier is
intent upon refuting two long standing
historical notions: that hemp was
brought to the Americas by the Virginia
colonists and that either Columbus or Leif
Ericson were the first foreigners to visit
America. Citing some rather obscure
historians, maps and archeological
evidence, Frazier maintains voyages were
made to the Americas as far back as 531
B.C. by the Phonecians, Romans,
Hebrews and others from Africa and the
Mediterranean. Because ships were
equipped with rope and other hemp
products, naturally travellers brought
seeds with them in order to plant more of
it, Frazier says. Some of these travellers
established cultures of marijuana users
which have been purposely ignored by
historians.
Some delightful historical detail in the
book includes the innovative ways ancient
peoples put marijuana to use. The
ancient Scythians, who roamed Asia and
ruled Russia during the time of the
Greeks, had a method of getting stoned
that rivals those of Don Juan and the
Merry Pranksters. According to the Greek
historians, Herodotus, writing in the fifth'
century B.C the Scythians had a unique
sauna bath. In small tent-like structures
equipped with red hot stones they bathed
and inhaled the fumes of hemp which
they threw on the stones, immediate-
ly it smokes and gives out such a vapour
as no Grecian vapour-bath can exceed;
the Scyths, delighted, shout for
joy This sauna bath was also used
later by the American Indians.
An 18th century trestise on hemp
includes the following uses: "They gave
a paste made of it to hogs and horses to
fatten them .and poor people eat the oil
of it in their soup"
The persecution of marijuana cultures
is an obsession with Frazier. Two
cultures, the American Indians and the
Celts of Ireland and Wales fell to the
onslaught of Christian, Anglo-Saxon
hordes who destroyed their writings and
cultures and introduced them to new
drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Ireland and
Northern England were inhabited by two
of the earliest hemp smokers, the Celts
and the Picts, and here have been found
many prehistoric pipes which apparently
predate the introduction of tobacco into
the area.
However, the history of the first
pot-users is secondary to the chief
concerns of the cannabis cultivator which
are: now that we have it, how can we
best grow it and put it to use? The
second part of the book, including
"Conversations with a Hemp Farmer
deals with these questions.
For those of us who doubt that hemp
can be grown under present laws Frazier
has a homey, free-flowing chat with a
nonchalant hemp farmer who gives tips
on planting, watering, transplanting,
fertilizing, harvesting and seed cultivation
of hemp as well as how to distinguish the
male from the female plant.
A hint of the fulfillment of marijuana
growing is captured in this question
Frazier puts to the hemp farmer: "Do you
ever get the feeling the hemp plant feels
its purpose in life is to turn people on and
the healthier and more robust it is the
more people it is turning on?"
As a solution to the paper shortage
and the clearcutting of forests for paper
pulp, Frazier suggests the hurds, or inner
stalk of the hemp plant be used for pulp
production, as they were before the
introduction of the chemical wood
pulping process in 1854. Paper made
from hemp has been used for thousands
of years; indeed, the hemp plant is so
sturdy and versatile that discarded hemp
fiber clothing was recycled by printers to
m
make paper. The per acre pulp producing
capacity of hemp is reportedly four times
that of wood.
Although neither his style nor his
historical objectivity' would win acclaim,
and his obsession with the persecution of
hemp cultures sounds like an over-mani-
festation of pot smoker's paranoia,
Frazier's book will likely become an
underground favorite among the mari-
juana farmers of the present day. For
those who find some of Frazier's claims
somewhat incredible, his extensive
bibliography offers further reading to
those interested in pursuing the historical
and anthropological aspects of hemp
growing.

JONATHAN LIVINGSTON SEAGULL
or
My Two Hour Battle With Nausea
By BRANDON USE
Staff Writer
After viewing the movie version of
Jonathan Livingston Seagull all I can say
is - Yecch. At this point I know that I've
put violent rage into the heart of any
Jonathan Livingston Seagull fans that
might read this review. The book was
readable, at times even interesting, but
the movie was unbearable.
The movie throws together two hours
of beady-eyed seagulls flying over the
sunlit and moonlit waves, crashing and
thrashing over menacing rocks while
Jonathan expounds his philosophical (?)
theories. The movie basically follows the
pattern of the book but the video account
detracts from the audio's "cerebral
meanings The photography is well
done, though not superb, but the
background shots provide food for
thought (at least five seconds worth).
The climax of the movie occurred
during one of Jonathan's many
self-righteous soliloquies on the beauty of
flight. Without warning, totally unexpect-

ed, and completely surprising the
audience, someone in the fourth row let
out a tremendous burp.
Buy the book, buy the Richard Harris
readings, but unless you are an
unstoppable Jonathan Livingston Seagull
fan, (complete with official T-shirt), and
unusually fond of watching seagulls
flying over the ocean, then stay away from
this sham of a movie. You will save your
money, your time, and your sanity.
E.L and P.
perform
brain surgery
By ARMECI TUCIGUANO
Staff Writer
Following an absence of almost 18
months in producing an album, England's
(Keith) Emerson, (Greg) Lake and (Carl)
Palmer have given birth to the electrifyng
Brain Salad Surgery on the Manticore
label.
With Keith leading the way on piano,
organ, accordion, harpsichord, Moog
synthesizer and the polyphonic Moog
ensemble, the music spins a delicate web
and is at the least aesthetically palatable.
The music ranges from the slow,
methodical strumming of Greg Lake's
acoustic guitar, to the loud, staccato
shrills of Emerson's collection of
Moogs. The polyphonic ensemble adds
quite a dimension to ELPs depth.
Palmer is the master of all manners of
percussion. Included in his 20-foot high
bank of drums is a special Moog
attachment. Each synthesizer is turned to
a pitch and can sound 12 notes without
changing the basic drum rhythm.
Lake, the cirtuoso lyricist, bassist-
guitarist and businessman behind ELPs
far-reaching Napoleonic powers, wrote
most of Brain Salad. He swears that the
lyrics are dirty, but listening to the words
leaves one scratching his head. It appears
that by using the confusing lyrics, the-trio
have tried to copy the style of that English
rock-star composer, Tull's Ian Anderson.
But any resemblance is purely
coincidnetal.

Out of nowhere
'Tubular Bells" offers new genre of rock
TUBULAR BELLS - Mike Oldfield
Virgin Records VR13-105
This record supplied courtesty of Rock n'
Soul, Inc.
By J. K. LOFTIN
Staff Writer
For the past few years, America and
the world have been caught up in a
nostalgic mood, concerned with rehash-
ing and improving past achievements by
others. The current rock n' roll and
country crazes attest to this fact. Accord-
ingly, very little energy has been spent by
musicians to finci new modes of musical
expression in this post-Beatles era with
only a few exceptions: Yes, Jethro Tull's
later works, King Crimson, Genisis, ELP
(all from England) , and to a certain
extent, Joe Walsh, here in the U.S. But
with the release of Tubular Bells, Mike
Oldfield has provided the music listener
(not just the "rock" music listener) with a
completely new genre of music
presentation. It is completely incompar-
able with anything done previously, and
yet it does not rest on just being different,
it is also intriguing. It has traces of
classicism, baroque, jazz, rock, rag-time,
pop, folk ballads and almost anything
else than can be imagined. It also has a
particular quality which is exhibited when
all of these styles are assimilated to
produce something completely unknown
before.
In accordance with the massive scope
which this album covers, it is appropriate
that Mr. Oldfield also plays every
instrument in the album except for flutes,
string bases (he does play bass guitar,
though), the drums on side 2, and the
vocal instrumentations, except for
Piltdown Man! This is an entirely
instrumental album, with all incidental
voices used as instruments, not for
vocalizing words. There are also no songs
included; simply sides 1 and 2.
Side One
Side 1, which lasts 25 minutes, begins
with a small piano figure which repeats
itself incessantly, but never quite reaches
the point of monotony. Indeed, this
quality is evident throughout the entire
album.
Though various patterns are used
in a repetitive manner, they never bore,
because new instruments are continually
introduced, and as these come in, the old
ones gradually fade until the listener is
aware of a completely new set of
melodies and harmonies in addition to the
new instrumentation. The most outstand-
ing example of this is the closing section
of side 1, which begins with a small figure
on guitar and bass guitar. Then, as the
narrator tells us, various instruments are
added consecutively, including: farfisa
organ, grand piano (which begins a new
figure), reed and pipe on the Lowery
organ, glockenspiel, bass guitar, double
speed guitar, too slightly distorted
guitars, mandolin, Spanish guitar,
acoustic guitar, and finally, tubular
bells! To this manegerie of sound he then
introduces a second melody with female
voices and gradually fades the other
instruments out except for the guitars
backing these voices. Finally, the voices
disappear, and the piece is completed
with a gentle acoustic guitar.
Side Two
Side 2 opens with electric piano,
guitar, bass and organ, each doing a
particular melody of its own. It seem
rather like the sound track for a film one
might see on a Sunday morning on T.V. It
brings to mind scenes of sunrise, of birds
feeding their young, of gentle raindrops
falling in a reflective puddle; a very
pleasing listening experience, with
subtle unexpected changes. This conti-
nues with varying modifications until a bit
over half-way. Piltdown Man enters then
with his animalistic vocalizations. Im-
mediately following this, the music
acquires a solid drum beat and a
contingent of screaming electric guitars.
Soon, however, the volume goes back to
acoustic and Piltdown's voice, and then,
right back up again. It's an amazing
conglomeration of moods, instruments,
and melodies, which soothes and
incites. Suddenly though, everything
drops gently back down to a smooth
Hammond organ background with rippling
guitars. All of a sudden, out of nowhere,
a grand finale comes across that
completely destroys any sense of
composure this album might have
produced in the listener. Mike Oldfield is
a peculiar, strange and positive genius.
Tubular Bells is an important album,
and despite its name, encompasses a
variety of influences, instrumentations
and ideas. It is, perhaps, the sngle
broadest musical statement to be
presented in many years. It is an album
which everyone, no matter what his or her
musical tastes may be, should not hear,
but listen to. Please, do not think that
these words on paper can convery the
magnitude of sound which the album
conveys - but hear for yourself. While the
subtleties may be lost on many, the
variety of moods and mental settings will
affect everyone who hears it. And if there
are some who don't find anything in it for
them, just keep it to play at a party when
everyone is in a strange frame of
mind. See what happens then.

WASHINGTON - Politics is an
uncertain science. But our own political
soundings indicate that the Republicans
may be virtually wiped out at the polls
this year.
Even Republican veterans, like Sen.
Barry Goldwater, are predicting that
Watergate will cost the party a 10 per cent
vote drop in November. The only way the
voters can register a protest against
President Nixon is to vote against the
Republican candidates for Congress.
But the greatest threat to the GOP is
the economic outlook. Food costs shot
up 19 per cent last year. Fuel costs
skyrocketed 20 per cent. Interest rates hit
new heights, with banks charging 10 to 15
per cent. And prices are expected to
continue to soar this year.
The oil shortage has forced layoffs in
the airline, automobile, petrochemical and
tourist industries. This has caused a
chain reaction, which could boost
unemployment to seven per cent this
year. It also means less overtime for
those who keep their jobs.
The inevitable result will be a drop in
personal income, a pinch in purchasing
power and a cutback in purchases. All
these factors add up to a recession and
inflation, incredibly, at the same time.
Already, the AFL-CIO is gearing up to
take out its vengeance upon Republican
candidates. The pools indicate that
nonunion workers also trust the
Democrats more than the Republicans
with their economic welfare. The
suspicion is spreading that Republican
policies protect the profits of the
corporations and the banks, while
neglecting the people who work for a
living.
This attitude may be unfair, but it is
grim news for the GOP.
Famine Forecast: The world faces a
critical fertilizer shortage, which could
bring famine to the under-developed
countries. Such nations as Bangladesh,
India, the Phillippines and South Vietnam
need huge amounts of chemical fertilizers
to grow the miracle grains, which have
saved their impoverished peoPle from
starvation.
The problem is that chemical fertilizers
are made from oil and gas. The oil
squeeze has left the underdeveloped
countries desperately short of fertilizer to
nourish their miracle grains.
The United States foresaw the problem
six months ago and began trying to raise
640,000 tons of fertilizer through the
foreign aid program. But only 110,000
tons could be found - scarcely one-sixth
of the anticipated need.
The United States itself cut back on
fertilizer exports so its own farmers would
have enough fertilizer to assure a good
harvest. Other exporters, such as Japan,
have also reduced fertilizer production to
save on oil.
The result will ber serious crop
shortages next harvest. In the past, the
hungry nations have been able to turn to
the United States for food. But the U.S.
grainaries have been drained so low that
Russia has offered to ship grain to the
United States to tide us over until the next
harvest.
Meanwhile, the ominous outlook is for
widesDread famine
No Shortage Underground: it our man
is any indication, the oil shortage is the
biggest problem on the minds of the
American people. They want to know
whether there is a real shortage or
whether the oil crisis was contrived by the
industry to push up prices.
To find the answer, we have developed
sources inside the executive suites of the
big oil companies. I have had access to
some of their secret corporate
papers. Here's what we have learned:
There is no oil shortage-under the
ground - in the United States. More than
36 billion barrels are ready to be pumped
out. But this is just the cream of the oil
reservoirs. Another estimated 150 billion
barrels are saturated in the sands and
clavs.
To extract his oil would require costly
technologies which the oil companies
have neglected. They have found it
cheaper to develop foreign oil fields.
They have spent an absolute minimum on
research for ways to remove producible oil
from the oil sands.
But now, foreign governments are
threatening to take over the overseas oil
fields. The secret corporate papers show
that the oil barons, therefore, conspired
to increase prices. They hoped to raise
capital to reactivate their abandoned
American wells and to get out the oil
slush.
They also need more money to build
refineries. They must build 60 new
refinieries over the next 10 years to catch
up with U.S. needs.
Meanwhile, there is no oil shortage in
the United States. But there is a definite
shortage of refined petroleum products.
More Miracles Needed: The amazing
Henry Kissinger has defused the Middle
East crisis. Israeli troops are pulling out
of theri bridgehead on the Egyptian side
of the Suez Canal. Egypt's President
Anwar Sadat has called upon his Arab
allies to life the oil embargo. Arabs and
Israelis are preparing for serious peace
negotiations at Geneva
Yet the secret intelligence reports
describe some ominous undercurrents.
Saudi Arabia's King Faisal is reported
to be balking at resuming oil shipments to
the United States. He is a stubborn old
monarch who still insists His public
demands be met. These terms, including
the release of Jerusalem to the Arabs, are
unrealistic. But his more moderate oil
minister, Ahmed Zaki Yamani, is having
trouble persuading him.
In Syria, President Hafez al-Assad
remains in a militant mood.qHe has been
quoted in the intelligence reports as
denouncing his Egyptian allies for dealing
with the Israelis. He has even threatened
to resume the fighting, although this is
taken as bravado.
In Israel, the militants are also causing
trouble. They ahve accused Prime
Minister Golda Meir"s government of
buckling under Kissinger's pressure and
abandoning military posistions vital to
Israel's survival. The pressure from the
militants has made it difficult for the
Israeli diplomats to make the concessions
that will be necessary to obtain a
permanent peace.
The intelligence reports indicate, in
other words, that Kissinger will have to
work still more miracles to bring peace to
the Middle East.

Music funds

To Fountainhead:
This letter is written to clear any
misconceptions that may have arisen, by
oral transmission or Forum letters,
concerning the $1000 dollar music
appropriations passed by the S.G.A. in
early January, 1974.
The original bill was divided into two
sections: Part I requested $5000 for
scholarships; Part II requested $5000
dollars for the support of performance
groups. The former was denied by the
Appropriations Committee for two
reasons: (1) The administration should
have the responsibility of providing
scholarships; (2) By allotting scholarship
money to the music building, the S.G.A.
would be besieged by other departments
demandi g equal representation.
PART II requested money for tours,
commissioning new works, extra string
players for large orchestral works, guest
soloists, and publicity for concerts. The
money for tours was refused because the
committee felt that such tours do not
benefit the students on campus. The
orchestra was allotted $1000 dollars in the
fall and was turned down upon this
basis. At this point, the committee
requested an expense budget for the
performing groups.
An expense budget was prepared,
asking for $9200 dollars. This budget
included the Wind Ensemble, Symphony
Orchestra, Mens Glee Club, Womens Glee
Club, University Chorale, Jazz Ensemble,
and Chamber Singers. The end result was
a $1000 dollar appropriation, $750 of
which had to be matched by music
funds. The S.G.A. funds had to be used
for on campus performances. The money
is to be allotted by the Student Forum of
the School of Music, who would report on
the spending of the funds every two
months to the S.G.A. The rationale for
the smaller appropriation dealt with these
three main points:
1. The S.G.A. receives its budget from
student activity fees, monies that are to
be used on campus for the benefit of the
E.C.U. students.
2. The funding of the performance groups
should be an administration function.
3. The S.G.A. did not have $9200 dollars
to appropriate to the School of Music at
this late date.
The music students hold these views
upon the situation:
1. Off-campus tours benefit the entire
university through aural and visual
publicity of the university performance
groups, therebv encouraging prospective
students to consider E.C.U. as their
choice for continued iducation. In-
creased enrollment-more activity fees for
the S.G.A. to work with-more faculty
members-better facilities for education.
2. The Music School recruits for the
better music students as mush as the
football team recruits for the best
players. These tours are the best method
for recruitment.
3. The School of Music was the only
department in the university to increase
its enrollment last year. The School.of
Music enjoys a respected reputation
throughout the Eastern Seaboard; this
reputation also reflects upon E.C.U.
4. The S.G.A. has supported the School
of Music in the past, eg $8000 dollars in
1967.
5. Last year, the S.G.A. offered matching
scholarships of $5000 dollars to the Fine
Arts Departments. Music was the only
department to match these funds and
sought a continuation of that support for
this year.
6. The $10,000 dollars the School of
Music requested is approximately 1 25th
of the S.G.As total budget for this
year-less than 1 percent of the entire
acitivity fees for the year. We feel that the
request was not exhorbitant when
compared to other S.G.A. appropriations.
7. Many music students believe that
some S.G.A.appropriations could have
been spent in support of music
performance groups.
8. The School of Music receives no funds
from the state to support the performance
groups. By asking for $10,000 dollars
from the S.G.A the Music Building could
continue the degree of excellence it
considers standard for E.C.U. A compari-
son with other schools is shown below:
Appalachian State University - received
$19,000 dollars from the S.G.A.
University of N.C. at Greensboro
received $10,000 dollars from the S.G.A.
North Carolina State University - S.G.A.
rasied activity fees to build a music
building.
The music students were greatly
disappointed about the size of the
appropriation. However, we respect the
views of the S.G.A. on this situation,
although we do not necessarily agree with
these views. Perhaps the largest problem
is found in our late requesting of these
funds. Next year, we will join the early
birds.

More music
To Fountainhead :
The SGA passed a bill to appropriate
six hundred dollars to the lacrosse
team. Having recently finished hassling
with the Appropriations Committee and
the SGA for a bare two hundred and fifty
dollars for music performance groups
($750 more is available if we match it), I
would like to voice three objections.
Objection No. 1 - The SGA informed
me that the support of music performance
groups should be the responsibility of the
administration. If this statement is true,
common sense compels one to believe
that the lacrosse team should be funded
by the Athletic Department, regardless of
whether the team adds points to the
President's cup. The Athletic Department
receives approximately $250,000 dollars a
year from activity fees. Surely, they can
afford a small sum of $600 dollars for the
lacrosse team.
Objection No. 2 - Ms. Cindy Domme,
chairman of the Appropriations Commit-
tee, informed me that the SGA cannot
fund off-campus tours because it does
not benefit the students on campus.
Could Ms. Domme enlighten me as to
how the lacrosse away games will benefit
the students on campus? Our music
appropriation was stipulated for on
campus use only.
Objection No. 3 -1 was also informed
that the music building should raise its
own funds for tours, expenses, etc. We
have done so on many occasions by
selling candy bars, spaghetti dinners,
doughnuts, drinks, sponsoring talent
shows, and slave sales. Why can't the
lacrosse team do likewise?
Honestly, I do not hate sports; I am
proud of the teams at ECU. But, the SGA
has no right to use activity fees to support
any athletic team; the Athletic
Department receives $9.00 dollars a
quarter per student through activity fees
to support the sports program. The
students of the Arts possess memories
that can best be compared to the
proverbial elephant. Perhaps those in-
terested candidates for the upcoming
SGA elections should bear this
information in mind.
Robert M. Sullivan
Dismayed
To Fountainhead:
As concerned students, we are
dismayed at the upcoming loss of a new
faculty member in the School of Art, Mr.
Henry Stindt. The departmental teaching
staff will be reduced in the school year
1974-75 as a consequence of a lack of
funds. Funds have been used to provide a
beautiful new art building on c?Tipus
which is presently under construction.
This building will house most of the art
facilities, however, it will be most
unfortunate that there will not be enough
instructors to fill the classrooms.
Mr. Stindt is one of three faculty in the
Communication Arts division within the
school. This field encompasses a
majority of the students within the School
of Art. The university apparently expects
the two remaining instructors to teach,
motivate and spark creative interest in
those students. But we are not only
concerned at the loss in manpower. After
less than two full quarters, Mr. Stindt has
demanded and gained respect and
admiration of his students. His influ-
ences and background combined with his
personal aspirations create a unique blend
that adds to the diversity of our faculty.
The field of art needs cosmopolitan
influences which Mr. Stindt can so aptly
provide. We appreciate the new building,
but feel that instruction from over-worked
professors will compromise the benefits
of the new building. In conclusion, we
hope that this decision will be
reconsidered.

To Fountainhead:
President Bodenhamer of the SGA has
overstepped his office powers yet
again. First with the mystery of the
frozen funds, now the impeachment of
Mike Ertis, our treasurer. It seems to this
concerned student that Mr. Bodenhamer
does not know where his power
lies. Maybe there is some mystery that he
is trying to keep a secret such as, the
expansion of presidential powers, or the.
attainment of some personal goal. What-
ever the case may be, it seems that he is
using the publicity of the SGA to extend
himself.
He had no business calling for the
impeachment of anybody As a matter of
fact, he should not have brought up the
subject. It may start rumors as to what to
do with him. My name was not on the list
in the Fountainhead on Tuesday Feb. 5,
1974, but, for what it's worth, I support
Mr. Ertis not because of my views on our
president, but because I believe he is
injecting some sense into our SGA. The
SGA itself is good, but people like Mr.
Ertis make it better. It seems a shame
that our president detracts so much from
the good of the others. In closing I would
like to say thanks to Fountainhead for
being very fair in what they print. No
matter what the subject, or the viewpoint,
Fountainhead prints it. .That seems to be
the aim of a good nowspaper. If it is,
Fountainhead ranks at the top Thar?.

Pope names environmental saint
n

St. Anthony, E.P.S. (Environmental
Protection Saint) Heaven help us all, we
now have our very own saint!
The Vatican's official newspaper
recently announced that St. Anthony the
Abbot may now be "officially invoked" as
the patron saint of the environment.
St. Anthony's papal appointment was
apparently awarded because of the 11th
century conservation practices of the
monks of the order later named after him
rather than for his own good
Traditional way
is out moded
By CAROL WOOD
Staff Writer
Your great-grandmother probably had
rosy cheeks because she ate right and got
plenty of exercise. Today, however, this
would not be the case.
American women find it much easier
to squeeze those rosy cheeks out of a
tube, rather than take the time to eat
balanced meals, get plenty of fresh air
and exercise.
Any why not? - just snip the end off
the tube, and presto, any girl can have
that famous all-American girl glow.
What could be easier? Perhaps that is
the point it's too easy. In the quest for
quick and easy methods for everything
from dinners to home decorations,
perhaps we have lost the satisfaction that
comes with doing something the
"traditional way
Maybe the traditional way is passe,
but remember whengirls were girls,
instead of part of the unisex!
Yes, in those days they wore bras, and
dresses to show off shapely legs.
It's a whole new ballgame today. Girls
have gotten a little lazy .blue jeans and
a shirt, they contend, is much easier than
"dressing up
Designers predict the dress is coming
back. How long it will take the trend to
work its way to the South is questionable.
But, don't give up guys! Girls may
shed those blue-jeans like a cocoon, and
emerge as beautiful spring butterflies.
Also, the gentlemenly dressers of
yesteryear. Whatever happened to them
are they extinct? Have they vanished like
to many other traditions?
Perhaps with the passing of "ladies
and gentlemen" also went such traditions
as family meals, baking home made
bread, washing your own car, walking to
school and spending a day in the country.
Traditions may really be out moded by
the times, but aren't some of them worth
bringing back?
Solar energy
A staggering statistic which gives
further weight to the need for serious
government research on solar energy is
that enough sunlight falls on the U.S. in
just two days to provide enough energy to
outlast all the country's known reserves of
oil, natural gas and coal.
Student uprising causes
fall of military dictator
(CPS)-Thailand has gone through some
important changes since a bloody student
uprising triggered the fall of the military
dictatorship under Thanom Kittikachorn
last October 14.
One of the most important changes
has been the rise of the country's
hereditary monarch, King Bhumibol
Adulyadej, from his position as
ceremonial head of state to that of
political leader.
In the weeks since the coup in which
the King and former university rector
Prime Minister Sanya Dhammasakdi
stepped into power, Thai goverment has
taken a turn toward a more participatory
structure. The King convened a conven-
tion of several thousand professors,
farmers, businessmen and military
officers to nominate an interim National
Assembly with the task of establishing a
new government structure. The National
Assembly met and selected a pro-royalist
Speaker and is now busying itself with
setting up a democratic government.
Once the new government is on its
own, the King is expected to return
voluntarily to his former status, as it is
the general tradition of Thai monarchs to
stay out of political and government
affairs.
The original antagonists, Kittikachorn
and militant Thai students, are now
engaged in other pursuits as the
governmental process is revamped. Kitti-
kachorn fled the country and is studying
for the Buddhist priesthood in a
monastery. The students have turned
their attention to international matters.
Recently it was revealed that a CIA
operative had sent a letter to Prime
Minister Sanya claiming to be a
communist guerilla, offering a cease-fire
in exchange for a recognition of "liberated
areas For several years, a curious state
of affairs had existed in Thailand whereby
the US Embassy was virtually the only
institution in Thailand actually worried
about communist activity. The result of
the letter was student deomonstrations
against newly appointed US Ambassador
William Kinter, and the US itself, which
was accused to trying to trump up a
communist threat to keep the future of its
Thai military bases secure.
be different.
environmental deeds. Anthony himself
was an Egyptian of the 4th Century A.D.
who spend the bulk of his 105 years living
in caves and frugally existing on bread,
salt and water. On the other hand, the
Hospital Brothers of St. Anthony were
once widely famed for their tree planting
zeal and their tenacity in land
reclamation.
We can only hope now that by
invoking the good name of Anthony, we
don't upset any of the prior holy lines of
conservation specialty. For instance, St.
Fiacre, an Irishman who emigrated with
productive success to France, is the
patron saint of gardners, St. Francis of
Assisi is well-known as a friend of all
dumb animals and feathered friends, and
JJL George has been papally ordained as
the patron saint of farmers. St. George
probably won't receive too much attention
from environmentalists, though, as he's
quite busy bring the holy protector of
England, Portugal, Germany, Venice,
soldiers and boy scouts. Also, after the
heavy workload, he's probably not too
happy about being thrown out of the
Christian calendar by the Vatican last year
on the charge of being apocryphal.
So with the demons and devils running
around disguised as developers, drainers,
dredgers, cutters, litterers and what-not, n
it might just help to bum a candle or two
for St. Anthony every now and then.

Job of the students
torecruit more blacks
Rw TIM irair-e ,wja!�
N5
j louih I lotiM
By TIM JONES
Staff Writer
In the past East Carolina has failed to
recruit the academically inclined black
student to its student body. This problem
has recently become the major concern of
the office of Minority Affairs here on
campus.
Slight, but non-effective, moves have
been attempted in this area. ECU
presently has a college day program, a
method for recruiting students of all
races. ECU is also in conjunction with
National Scholarship Service for Neqro
Students (NSSFNS).
Secretary of Minority Affairs Maurice
Huntley feels that such programs are not
enough. Blacks still have a varied choice
of schools because many institutions are
under the same program and take the
same procedures. "This problem is not
solely that of the admissions office
Stated Huntley. "The problem also
belongs to the black student body
Black students must become recruiters.
This is one of the purposes of the
Minority Affairs Office.
Aware of the cultural differences
between the races, Huntley feels that the
Campus needs a black advisor He
advocates black recruiting to the point of
hiring blacks in the admissions office,
athletic c Dartment and the adminis
tration.
Through an overall view of the blacks
on campus, they can be categorized into
three groups: (1) a few hard workers, (2)
black male athletes, and (3) average black
students, mostly Eastern North Carolin-
ians. Very few, if any, of these students
were sought out for their academic
accomplishments.
Black high school students who range
high in academics tend to shy away from
East Carolina, because graduates build
the name of the school. ECU has
graduated few blacks, because we do not
recruit blacks who are gifted in
scholarship areas. These students must
become aware of the fact that East
Carolina has a very fine business, art,
drama and music department.
Huntley challenges each black student
to do his part by bringing as many blacks
as possible down to visit, and trying to
get them interested in attending this
university. He makes a special challenge
to the board of trustees, sub-committees
and faculty senate to recognize this
important factor in our future and
commit; themselves to a program or
project to insure its success.
The following letter was submitted to
the Fountainhead by Dr. Ralph Steele
recent director of the Parks, Recreation
and Conservation department. The letter
was written in response to an article
appearing in the Feb. 5 Fountainhead
titled "Originator of PRC major ends
study, leaves It explains the position
changes which he has made.
The article recently written about the
Parks, Recreation and Conservation
Curriculum and my involvement with it
has elicited some questions and
comments which need attention and
which pertain to the following- (1) my
leaving ECU and PRC, and (2) my attitude
toward "sterile classrooms" and "aca-
demic conditions present when (PRC)
started First, I have resigned from
neither ECU nor PRC but have recently
been awarded a federal grant and
consequently will be spending a good
deal of time with the Sea Grant Program
as well as a lesser amount of time with
ECU'S newly formed Institute of Coastal
and Marine Resources. Therefore, I have
stepped aside as coordinator of the PRC
curriculum, for I cannot simultaneously
do justice to all jobs.
Next, my seemingly sanctimonious
attitude toward "sterile classrooms etc.
emanates from the manner in which I view
the academic world and its various
disciplines, as these disciplines relate to
the individual student, and from a
personal conviction born during my years
of supervising practice teachers.
It appeared to me that in many
classrooms whole beings were suffocat-
ing from an academic diet taken almost
exclusively from the cognitive domain and
that very little was being accomplished in
the psycho-motor and affective domains.
Students appeared to be "dying on the
vine" from lack of motivation and personal
physical involvement in their education. I
contend that the cognitive domain can no
more be separated from the affective and
psychomotor than can applied medicine
be separated from the humanities. (The
doctor, when applying his medicine, is an
artist; the humanist, when applying his
art, is a doctor.) All are one if related to
the interests of the individual student
and the individual student has been the
focal point in the PRC curriculum.
It is my hope that the methods used in
PRC have been effective in converting my
"sterile classrooms" into fields of fertile
minds and attitudes.

AWAKEN
It's time for the athletic administration of ECU to wake up. The alarm that is
ringing is named Carter Sjngs.
By now everyone has heard East Carolina's track coach Bill Carson has signed
Tarboro, N.C. Carter Suggs to an athletic grant in-aid on Wednesday.
And everyone has heard Suggs has run two 9.3 100-yard dashes which tie the
national high school record.
But Suggs is much more than this. In 1973 Suggs was a member of the U.S.
International Junior Track and Field team. Against Poland, Suggs took the silver medal
in the 100-meters and helped anchor the winning 400-meter relay team. The relay time
of 39.6 seconds broke the world junior record.
Suggs saved his greatest performance for the U.S. versus Russia meet in Odessa,
USSR in July. Suggs won three gold medals in winning the 100, 200-meters and as a
member of the relay team.
Suggs continued to devastate the European sprint scene in Heidenh'eim, West
Germany by winning the 100 and again helping the relay team to victory.
Track and Field News named Suggs the High School Sprinter of the Year and he
finished second to distance runner Craig Virgin as Athlete of the Year.
The accomplishments and records are enormous, but the promise is even more
astounding. For Suggs has to be considered a favorite for the gold medal in the 1976
Olympic Games in Montreal.
And yet after all this, we have learned that Coach Carson had difficulty in getting
the money for a scholarship for Suggs from the athletic big wigs.
Gentlemen, we are not talking about some All-State fullback that will probably ride
the bench for three years before producing, if in fact he ever produces. We're talking
about one athlete who can establish this school as the powerhouse of the East in track,
and go a long way toward giving ECU a National Championship.
Suggs' running is not his only value. Already two more exceptional athletes have
signed with the Pirates, wanting to join the awakening.
Larry Austin, a 9.5 sprinter from Jacksonville, N.C. has signed. Austin is one of the
few sprinters to beat Suggs last year, as he nipped him in the regionals in a preliminary
race. Austin has also run a 6.2 60-yd. dash indoors.
Also signing was the state's premier miler in Mike Cunningham, who has run a 4:20
mile and a 50.0 quartermile.
But this is only in North Carolina. May we suggest an effort by the sports publicity
department to spread the word outside the state. East Carolina has before it an
opportunity for national prominence. Get out and send letters to the national press,
not just to the state's newspapers. Send stories to Track and Field News, get the
needed attention stirring. Let's not be satisfied with Southern Conference
championships, let's go after the big one, the NCAA trophy.
The groundwork has been laid, it remains for this administration to act. Let's hope
they don't take after that other famous loafer. Rid Van Winkle.
MORE TRACK
Olympic gold medalists Rod Milbum and Dave Wottle are rumored to be close to
signing with the pro track circuit ITA, the International Track Association.
Milbum, the world record holder in practically every hurdle event from 60 yards
through 120 yards and 110 meters, is seeking a substantial contract. Enhancing his
bargaining position is an offer from thP new World Football League.
800 meter champ Wottle said, "We're still apart as far as money is concerned, but
they know I'm interested and I want to get it settled one way or another
SULLIVAN AWARD
Bill Walton, Mr. Everything in college basketball, was named the finest amateur
athlete in the U.S. Monday in voting for the prestigous Sullivan Award. Possibly Sports
Illustrated captured Walton best in saying, "He just may be the baddest ever
Olympian Dave Wottle finished second. Past winners include swimmers Mark Spitz
and Don Schollander, baskerball's Bill Bradley and miler Jim Ryun and decathlete Bill
Toomey.
GOLF
This week is the 90-hold Bob Hope Desert Classic. Competing is defending
Champion Arnold Palmer, voted by the Associated Press as the Athlete of the 60's. I
know of no other man who imspires that thrill of sport that this broad shouldered
gentleman from Latrobe, Penn. The Eisenhower Medical Center gets all the profits
from this tournament for research. There's a legend that Ike, who while in the White
House played often with Palmer, watches Arnie tee off on the first tee. If you see
Palmer's ball take any funny bounces, you now know why. If you are still skeptical,
Palmer has won the tournament five times.

�
Wright Anderson, a native of Burgaw,
N.C, has been named offensive backfield
coach on the staff of new head football
coach Pat Dye at East Carolina University.
Anderson comes to East Carolina from
Wichita State University where he spent
one year as a secondary coach. Before
moving to Wichita State, he spent four
years at Wake Forest under first Cal Stall
and then Tom Harper as freshman coach
and eventually secondary coach.
Anderson played athletics at
Burgaw High School and was named
alll-conference and all-East in football.
He played college football at Elon College
before injuries cut short his career and
turned him towards the coaching
ranks. At Elon, he played quarterback,
defensive halfback and single wing
tailback.
He received an A.B. Degree from Elon
College and a Masters in Education from
the University of North Carolina.
Since arriving at East Carolina, he has
recruited heavily in North Carolina and is
responsible for the signings of several
outstanding prospects including Willie
Hawkins from Grimesland, N.C, and
Ronnie Ragland, a Virginia prep player
and Ted O'Neill, a junior college tight end
from Dorchester, Mass.
"This coaching position at East
Carolina is a golden opportunity to me
Anderson says, "because it gives me a
chance to return home and also into an
established football program with a
tradition of winning. The winning is great
and the tradition is fairly new so it gives
us a chance to really contribute to it
"When you have an opportunity to
work at a major school in a winning
program and also under a person like Pat
Dye, you can't go wrong. Working with
Coach Dye, because of his great
reputation as a coach and as a man, has
to make this job a great opportunity
"Recruiting has been going very well, I
think" Anderson continued. "We have
been very pleased with the caliber of
athletes we've had here. If we can
continue to recruit and bulid, there isn't
any reason why the program won't
improve and grow
Anderson's parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Buren Anderson, still live in Burgaw.

PIRATE LARRY HUNT launches jump shot over Old Dominion's Joel Copeland. The

Lady basketball team
wins 74-47over Camels
By CONNIE HUGHES
Staff Writer
The ECU women's basketball team
controlled the initial tip-off in Memorial
Gymnasium on Monday night and from
then on it was all over for the Campbell
Camels
All 18 of ECU'S players saw action in
the 74-47 victory. Sheilah Cotten and Lu
Ann Swain stirred more action in the first
quarter than the visiting Camels were able
to handle. Swain went up for the first two
points of the game and then it was Swam
and Cotten alternating brjket for
basket. At the end of the quarter ECU
was leading Campbell, 20-12.
In the second quarter, the Lady Pirates
began to relax and enjoy themselves at
the expense of Campbell. Cotten
displayed her flashy style to the delight of
the fans by miraculous shooting, driving,
passing and faking. The defensive finesse
of Frances Swenholt and the offensive
power of Swain made everything hang
together for the ECU team. At half time it
was ECU, 44-27.
In third quarter action the Pirate bench
took the hardwood. Play was inspired by
Swenholt and Charlotte Layton who
m
worked together and were a deadly
combination against the Campbell
defense. It was apparent that the Camels
were tiring and would not recover. As the
horn sounded it was Campbell down by 23
points, 62-39.
Myra Modlin sparked the fourth
quarter play for the Lady Pirates. She
scored from almost every spot on the
floor and kept the fatigued Campbell team
well in line. Ginny Deese made two
outside shots look easy as the game
ended, ECU-74, Campbell-47.
In the fast-breaking game, ECU hit 40
per cent from the floor and 65 per cent
from the foul line. High scorer for the
game was Cotten with 20 points and
Swain witn 18 points. Layton contributed
12 points to the Pirates cause while
Modlin added eight.
ECU had a good night under the
boards claiming 49 rebounds. Swenholt
was top in this category with 11 grabs for
the Lady Pirates.
The game against Campbell was the
last home contest for the women. They
anticipate some rough competition when
they travel this week-end to the
mountains of North Carolina to play High
Point, ASU and Western Carolina.

Cindermen gain honors;
face OSU, Notre Dame
By STEVE TOMPKINS
Staff Writer
Opposing some of the finest track
talent on the East Coast ECU took two
firsts and five seconds in a meet in
Newark, Delaware Sunday afternoon.
The Pirates indoor team competed
against William and Mary, Catholic Univ
Delaware and West Virginia in a meet
where no team scores were kept.
Larry Malone continued his winning
ways in the long jump by taking his first
22' 7 14 and teammate Willie Harvey
took second in 225 Malone exhibited his
versatility by jumping 46'3" in the triple
jump for second.
Art Miller forithe second consecutive
week cleared 14'6" to win the pole vault.
Coach Carson commented on the
meet, "We had some good performances.
The only real disappointment in the meet
was that in the 60-yd. dash we had five
different times of 6.3 seconds and we
wanted to qualify for the nationals
(Qualifying time for the NCAA indoor
championships is 6.2.)
In the 60-yd. dash final, both Ariah
Johnson and Charles Lovelace ran 6.3 for
third and fourth respectively.
Unhappily for the Pirates, Lovelace
pulled a hamstring muscle in the finals
and is not expected to compete again
until the conference meet Feb.
22-23. Lovelace is the defending con-
ference champion in the 440.
Gerald Klas broke the school indoor
record for the mile in running a 4:11.2.
Tom Watson threw the shot 502 11 A"
for second with Ivey Peacock third in 477
11 A
Ariah Johnson ran the fastest quarter
mile recorded in the state this year in
finishing second in 51.4. His time puts
him in first place on the weekly Track and
Field Honor Roll published by the Raleigh
News and Observer.
Carson commented on the 440, "What
makes Ariah's time even better is that he
had just finished running a 6.3 60. He had
only ten minutes to get ready
In other events Sam Phillips and
Charles Maxey finished third and fourth in
7.5 and 7.7 seconds in the high hurdles
respectively. Both Glen Russell and Roy
Quick cleared 6'2" in the high jump for
third and fourth. And Palmer Lisane ran
1:16.9 600-yd. dash for fifth.
On Friday the Pirates take on Ohio
State and Notre Dame in Columbus, Ohio.

Pack falls; Grapplers face W&M
By DAVE ENGLERT
Assistant Sports Editor
Tuesday night in Carmichael Gym-
nasium on the N.C. State campus the
East Carolina wrestling team methodically
mowed down the Wolf pack, 31-3.
"Maybe this makes up a little for
football and basketball quipped ECU's
1C0 pounder Mike Radford in reference to
resounding Pirate defeats earlier in the
year at the throngs of State.
Despite the overwhelming margin, the
Pirates did not give their most inspired
performance.
"We had a real tough workout
yesterday (Monday) explained coach
John Welborn. "The boys were a little
sluggish
Hard workouts will continue as
Welborn primes his men for Friday night's
home match with William & Mary.
"That's the big one said Welborn.
Jim Blair set the Pirates sailing in the
118 pound bout. His quick moves kept
State's Masaro Williams in a daze, while
he registered a convincing 17-3 decision.
In the 126 pound weight class, ECU's
Paul Ketchum discovered early that he
could take down his opponent almost at
will. This helped him win by an 11-6
margin.
Milt Sherman started slow as usual in
the 134 pound bout, but with a reversal
and two near pins in the final period he
defeated John Starkey of State decisively,
11-3.
The Bucs' Tom Marriott had no trouble
at all withScott Harell at 142. He won
14-5, giving ECU a 13-0 team lead over the
Pack.
Steve Satterthwaite was defeated by
N.C. State's Charlie Williams, he he fell
behind early and was nearly pinned. That
7-2 victory was to be the lone such one for
State.
Bruce Hall, recovering from a recent
illness, won his 158 pound bout by the
score of 12-4.
At 167, Ron Whitcomb whipped
State's Howard Johnson (no relation to
America's favorite) by a 5-1 margin,
although the score doesn't indicate
Whitcomb's dominations of the bout.
Pirate captain Bill Hill cranked out an
11-2 win over State foe Robert Buchholz.
The only pin of the night was made by
ECU's Mike Radford in his 190 pound bout
with Toby Atwood. After getting Atwood
on his back almost immediately, Radford
registered the fall at 1:36.
The heavyweight bout between the
Bucs' Willie Bryant and State's Tom
Wiggins provided the only excitement, in
the way of controversy, of the evening.
According to the referee, the first
warning Higgins received for a false start
was a technical violation, separate from
his later warning for stalling. Normally
the second time a warning occurs, the
opponent is given one point.
Higgins continued to stall, and with
only four seconds left the referee blew his
whistle and awarded one point to
Bryant. This gave him a 2-1 victory over
Higgins, and East Carolina a 31-3 win over
Minges Natatorium
site for ASISDC meet
Tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 p.m. in
Minges Natatorium, the East Carolina
junior varsity swimmers will take on the
swimmers from Calvert Hall and Bishop
Ireton in a triple dual meet.
On Saturday, the nineteenth annual
Atlantic Seaboard Interscholastic Swim-
ming and Diving Championships will take

The diving trials will begin at 10 a.m.
and the swimming preliminaries will
follow at noon. Finals start at 7 p.m.
The meet will be conducted by East
Carolina swimmers and the meet director
is Coach Ray Scharf.
the Wolfpack.
This triumph upped the Pirate record
to 3-0 in dual competition, with the
spotlight now focusing on Friday night's
guest in Minges Coliseum-William and
Mary. The Indians are the only team with
a shot at dethroning the Southern
Conference champs. This should provide
for a very entertaining evening, as it
always is when these two rivals
meet. Time of the match is 8:00.
