ECU office personnel
can get SPA benefits
By BETSY FERNANDEZ
Assistant News Editor
Attendance at professional meetings
and partial reimbursement for money
spent at the meetings can now be granted
to ECU office personnel under certain
conditions.
According to a memorandum released
January 14, 1974 by Cliff Moore, Vice
Chancellor of Business Affairs, State
Personnel Act employees who follow
procedures may attend professional
meetings during work hours without
deducting annual leave. The employees
are also eligible for reimbursement of
money according to the availability of
funds within the department and the use of
a state vehicle to attend the meeting.
The conditions which must be met are
as follows: ttie employee must submit to
the department head, or administrator of
the unit, a written request to attend the
professional meeting. The request must
give information naming the sponsor of th
meeting, date and location of the meeting,
which must be sponsored by a bona fide
professional organization, whether the
employee is a member of the organization,
time the employe3 will be absent from
work, purpose of the meeting and how the
employee's attendance will benefit the
University.
Time off to attend the meetings can be
taken only at the convenience of the
employee's work as determined by the
department head.
If the request is approved by the
department head or administrator, it is
forwarded to Melvin Buck, director of
personnel, for further authorization and
review. If Buck sends back a statement of
approval, the employee is granted
administrative leave
Diane Hankins, secretary for the
Political Science Department, is the only
woman at ECU of the 309 office and
clerical workers who has taken advantage
of SPA employee benefits She has used
her benefits to attend two meetings of the
North Carolina Association of Educational
Office Personnel (NCAEOP). In an
interview with Hankins. she expressed the
belief that more office personnel don't use
their benefits because they fear the
procedures involve too much "red tape
"My attendance at the district and state
NCAEOP meetings are evidence that the
procedures can work. Many of the office
personnel at ECU don't realize that asking
for the time off is not reaiiy as bad as it
seems said Hankins.
The political science secretary
explained that reimbursement of money
spent at the meeting is dependent on
funds available within the department for
travel expenses The maximum amounts
that a person can be reimbursed is $19.00 a
day This is a per diemfigurefor in-state
travel which covers hotel and food
expenses. Anything over the figure is the
person's responsibility.
"The amount of money reimbursed is
really up to the department. They can
reimburse your registration fee. they can
pay half of your meeting expenses or they
can give you the $19 per day explained
Hankins
One section of the memorandum states
that reimbursement of expenses implies
that duties are performed for the benefit of
the university.
Hankins commented, "This section
seems open to interpretation by the
individual department. In my case the
political science chairman felt that

Forum answers vitalquestions
By PAT CRAWFORD
Editor
After three months of planning, the
first Student Forum of 1974 got underway
Tuesday night in room 201 of the Union,
oroadcast live over WECU radio. Present
to answer questions as panel members
were Bill Bodenhamer, SGA President;
Bob Lucas. SGA President-elect; Braxton
Hall, Speaker of the SGA Legislature; Pat
Crawford. Fountainhead editor; Gary
McCullough, Buccaneer editor; Dr. Jack
Home, Dean of Admissions; and Bob
vVoodside, Faculty Senate chairman. Also
present at the forum to answer questions,
through not on the panel, were Mike Ertis,
SGA Treasurer; Tom Clare, SGA Attorney
General; Bill Beckner, SGA Treasurer-
elect; and Wade Hobgood, President-elect
of the Student Union. Questions were
either called in or directed from the
audience.
After a brief introduction to the
program, moderator Jim Davis (SGA
Secretary of Academic Affairs) directed
several questions to panel members. In
response to a question on the possibility
of beer sales in the new Union, Union
President-elect Hobgood replied that the
chance was unlikely; as far as he knew,

ilkshakes and no beer
taps had been installed. Bob Woodside,
representing the Faculty Senate, answered
a student question on the proposed
Monday-to-Saturday calendar, stating that
the proposal was simply tossed up "in
case of a worsening of the energy crisis
and was not looked upon as a probability.
SMOKING BAN
A minor verbal altercation occurred
as two members of the audience asked a
question regarding the no-smoking ban in
Minges. Both SGA Treasurer-elect Bill
Beckner and Wade Hobgood attempted to
explain that the smoking ban was enforced
due to possible damage to Minges'
floor. However, one of the questioners
.insisted that N.C. State permitted
smoking, and maintained his point
repeatedly until Woodside stated that
Reynolds Coliseum, even with its concrete
floors, had a smoking ban.
Responding to another question, SGA
President-elect Bob Lucas indicated his
hopes for the student lobby planned in his
campaign platform, and its potential in
obtaining a 10th Street overpass or relief
for those paying out-of-state tuition.
Braxton Hall, Speaker of the Legislature,
was also drawn into the lobbying issue
when asked if and why the legislature
spent so much time appropriating money
rather than lobbying.
"I disagree with that statement he
said, "because I think concern for student
funds is in the best interest of the
students He added that the legislature
had in fact sent several resolutions to
President Nixon and Governor Holshouser,
and added, "We're the group at which a
lobby should be directed
Bob Lucas continued the lobbying
discussion. "The SGA should measure its
success in how we affect students - not in
how many booklets we can print up, or
how many people we can talk into riding
the bus
INDEPENDENT
Fountainhead editor Pat Crawford was
asked if she supported the idea of the
student newspaper going completely
independent.
"It's impossible right now she said,
"because we just don't have the money it
takes. I would like to see all publications
get out from under the SGA, though

Gilliam, explained that SGA appropri-

Canticle
Nick Hallman will appear as special
guest guitarist this Saturday night at the
Canticle. Hallman is among the leading
flat-pick guitarists in the country.
A popular entertainer at colleges and
festivals throughout the southeast, he is
highly sought after because of his rare
combination of outstanding guitar work,
traditional and contemporary folk music,
and original humor. Hallman is an expert
in the Childe ballads and other early
English ballads and, as a teacher, gained
wide acclaim for his ability to bring to life
these forms of English literature. This
unique style of doublepicking amazes
guitar buffs while de delights audiences
with a well-rounded program ranging from
the ridiculous to, the sublime
Hallman is widely respected in the
music field for his guitar runs; as a festival
judge put it: "He comes up on those runs
like greased lightning In addition to the
6 and 12 string guitar, he is proficient on
the mandolin, bass, dulcimer, recorder
and banjo. He is a skilled composer for
guitar, mandolin and dulcimer, and some
of his songs are included with traditional
favorites on the album, "Nick Hallman
Doublepicks
Hallman is perhaps best known as the
performing emcee of the Fiddlers Grove
Easter Festivals and "backwards yodeller"
of the Folk Festival of the Smokies. His
coffeehouse concerts have wide appeal,
and as a convention entertainer he is
frequently a showstopper.
The show begins at 8:00 in Room 201
of the Student Union. Admission is 25
cents plus I.D. and refreshments will be
served.

Transportation system back on its feet
By CAROL WOOD
Staff Writer
The ECU student transportation system
resumed its normal schedule Tuesday,
March 12 after receiving an emergency fuel
allocation from the North Carolina State
Energy Commission.
Upon being notified that gas was not
available for the student buses, SGA
President Bill Bodenhamer worked with
university officials in a concentrated effort
to acquire an emergency allocation.
Through normal channels, it would
have taken about 30 days for an emergency
allocation to be approved. Bodenhamer
stated the bus system could not survive
without gas for 30 days.
Therefore, normal procedures were
skipped and direct connections with
Fowler Martin, head of the North Carolina
State Energy Commission, were made by
John S. Bell, purchasing officer, through
the Business Affairs office.
Bell wrote a letter explaining the
situation and requesting an emergency
allocation. The letter was necessary since
all emergency requests have to be received
in writing.
Bodenhamer, himself, went to Raleigh
to the Energy Commission office to
explain the bus system in full detail.
He sought the help of a personal friend,
State Sen. Billy Mills, while in Raleigh.
Bodenhamer stated he discussed the
situation with Lt. Gov. Jim Hunt. Hunt
advised Bodenhamer to continue with the
procedures already begun, and if the
allocation did not come through within five
days (or as soon as possible) to come
back.
After explaining to the commission
that the transportation system was unique
in North Carolina, in that it is student
owned, operated and supported, Boden-

could turn it down
Luckily for the students at ECU, the
Commission didn't turn down the
request. However, the 3600 gallon
allocation was not specifically granted to
the student body.
The emergency allocation was
approved with the understanding that the
transportation system would receive 60
gallons a day.
Bodenhamer stated the allocation
would not have been possible without the
help of the University administration.
They worked closely with Bodenhamer in
preparing the statistics necessary for the
emergency allocation request.
BODENHAMER GLAD
"I am personally glad that this situation
arose where the gas was cut off, because
this made people realize how important the
buses are to the student body
Bodenhamer said.
According to the facts and figures
quoted by Bodenhamer and Walter Mann,
SGA Secretary of Transportation, the
transportation system is the most efficient
one ECU has ever had, and the only one
like it in the state.
Since 1969, every student pays two
dollars each quarter for transportation.
Last year students were getting about
33 percent worth of that two dollars. This
year Bodehmaner saysstudents are getting
about $1.98 of that two dollars - "They're
getting their money s worth
Last year the university rented buses
from Raleigh Coachlines for $150 per
day. This year with student owned buses,
it costs $48 per day to run the buses.
Both Mann and Bodenhamer said they
had received mainly favorably comments
about the buses. The only complaints
received have been that buses don't go to
all the Greenville apartments, and that
buses are sometimes crowded.
DEPENDABILITY
Students can depend on the buses to
get them to classes on time. However, at
the present time it is impossible to arrive
at the Allied Health building exactly on the
hour, simply because of scheduling.
Mann, who is also a bus driver, said if
buses waited for students to get out of
their classes on central campus, it was
impossible to arrive at the Allied Health
Building, via Minges, on the hour.
Mann stated professors at the Allied
Health building had been very understand-
ing about students coming into class a few
minutes late.
At the present time it is impossible to
expand the bus system to Tar River
Apartments (or any other apartments),
without throwing the schedule off.
It takes 29.9 gallons to run the buses
on the present schedule. Bodenhamer
said if the system were to expand, the
buses would have to stop and fill up with
gas, which would require about 30 to 40
minutes.
Even with its limitations, the bus
system is the most effective and far
reaching one ECU has ever had. Boden-
hamer said he anticipates the expansion of
the transit system, possibly by Fall 1974.

ations to Fountainhead had dropped
approximately $10,000 overall in several
years, and Buccaneer editor Gary
McCullough added that he could envision
the Buc going independent on a
subscription basis, although "we might
not be able to produce a book of the type
students are now accustomed to
In response to a question pertaining to
her editorial support of SGA candidates
which not all Fountainhead staff members
had agreed with, Crawford explained, that
"the Forum policy states that all unsigned
editorials reflect the opinion of the editor,
not necessarily those ot the staff.
Second she said, "I felt it was time for
Fountainhead to stick its neck out and
support someone instead of printing other
people's letters and sitting back, as we've
done in the past
SGA ACTIVITIES
Most of the forum questions were
directed to SGA representatives, and
centered on SGA activities of the past
year. Jim Davis explained the non-appear-
ance of the teacher evaluation proposed
earlier.
"It was estimated that the program
would cost about $10,000 he said. "The
SGA Appropriations Committee passed it
with no amendment, but it was tabled on
the floor since it was felt to be too
expensive. There will be no evaluation this
year, but the Faculty Senate has an
instructional survey committee working on
it. However he added, "according to
their charter, the results must be kept
confidential, and can't be distributed to
students
A member of the audience questioned
SGA President Bill Bodenhamer on a topic
which had been raised earlier,
Bodenhamer's dissatisfaction with meet-
ings of all 16 student body presidents.
Bodenhamer had claimed that the
presidents discussed only theory or
lobbying problems, such as liquor by the
drink, which were better left to other
groups.
"They've also isolated themselves from
the Board of Governors he said, "and you
know you have to work within the system
"The Board of Governors didn't elect
the SGA presidents replied the
questioner from the floor. "130,000
students did. We want to show we have a
voice ourselves The questioner added
that most members of the Board of
Governors were "ultra-conservative and
proceeded to engage in a heated argument
about Bodenhamer's support of the Board.

STREAKING
After nearly an hour of fairly sober
questioning, moderator Davis announced a
question which had been called in and
directed to both Tom Clare and
Bodenhamer: "Have either of you ever
streaked, and how do you feel about it?"
"I was one of the first streakers on
campus said Clare, amid laughter, "that
was on Monday night, registration
day .I've been happy with the way the
administration has reacted to it - there
have been no arrests for streaking
Bodenhamer said he hadn't streaked,
BILL BODENHAMER
but had watched. "That's worse, you're a
voyeur shouted Treasurer Mike Ertis, and
both panel and audience bordered on the
pleasantly manic for several minutes.
The WECU issue arose when Braxton
Hall was asked why the legislature had
refused funds to WECU. After stating his
personal support for WECU funding, Hall
explained the case.
"First he said, "a bill was brought up
to give WECU $500 to research the
possibility of going FM; it was defeated by
majority vote. Another bill was presented
with a slight change - it was for $5 less,
$495 - and a member of the legislature
made a formal objection to it, due to the
rule that no bill may be resubmitted during

BRUSHED ASIDE
Jim Davis interrupted the proceed-
ings at this point, stating that a telephone
caller felt that some questions were being
brushed aside in the forum. Davis
expressed concern, saying, "We're not
trying to brush anything aside - this is our
first forum, and we don't have all the
answers, so we hope you'll understand
To a question which had been called
in: "Are you quitting as Buccaneer
editor? Gary McCullough replied that he
had dropped out of graduate school, but
was working with the Buc in a non-salaried
position and planned to accept a job with

the company which prints the Buccaneer.
McCullough added that Kathy Jones was
expected to replace him as editor.
SGA President-elect Bob Lucas,
responding to the question, "Are you
keeping the Xerox machine next year?"
stated that the machine was one of the
less successful SGA projects. "The Xerox

In praise of speech
The army: new quality
Fountainhead congratulates those who took part in and responded to Tuesday's
student forum, the first open-question event of its sort in quite a while. This is the sort
of thina Fountainhead has been pushing for - behind our anti-bureaucracy
editorials, there's been a plea for open discussion, and only the one-to-one contact of a
forum can provide this. We were impressed with the questions asked and called in, which
indicated a greater alertness than we thought existed; and, since SGA President-elect Bob
Lucas has included the planning of such forums in his platform, we welcome a continuance
of this practice in the future.
In fact, we might state that Tuesday's forum was more straightforward, informative
and potentially useful than most of this year's student organizational ? ?-?.
activities. Fountainhead reiterates its old statement that you can't win student trust by all-volunteer Army,
buying a bus, but by talking things out. We urge next year's Student Union and SGA
presidents, publications editors and others to look into possible expansion of the forum
idea.

the school year

Secretary Callaway acknowledged that
the first year without the Selective Services
System had presented some problems.
But he said that these were being
overcome by many new approaches which
are being tried in recruiting - approaches
which stress quality together with
quantity. He mentioned such items as
expanding the unit of choice and thes
tation of choice option for new recruits;
focusing on the junior college market;
screening out poor soldiers in
re-enlistment; administering newextrance
examinations, and even screening out
early in training the individuals who cannot
become successful soldiers.
During the period from January to
December, 1973, the Army recruited
163,800 men and womeYi. Re-enlistments
for the year totaled 46,300.
In addition, 2,540 men and women
extended their enlistment for 2 years or
more. As a result, the Army has achieved
88 per cent of its recruitment objectives
since the draft was abandoned on January
27, 1973.
"Recently, recruiting trends are up
Secretary Callaway reports. "The high
school graduate content on our nonprior
service-enlisted accessions since the draft
ended has been about 60 per cent. If we
include prior-service accessions, the high
school figure rises to 63 per cent; and if
we take a snapshot of the whole Army, we
find 71 per cent of enlisted men and
women, have at least a high school
education
"Although there were some shortfalls
in meeting recruiting goals in the early
months of this fiscal year, recently the
monthly goals have been met and our
enlisted strength permits us to maintain an
effective and quality force
Of the entire year's achievements, the
one that the Army is proudest of was the
'use of a recruiting technique heretofore
unknown. It occurred in connection with
the Army's reactiviation of the 9th Infantry
Division at Fort Lewis, Wash. As
Secretary Callaway described it, "The
manpower was not at hand. The Army
directed the commander, Gen. Fulton, to
take his cadre, the division colors and
recruit a division Gen. Flton and his
recruiters did just that. They began a
vigorous campaign, and today that
division stands at 102 per cent strength,
essentially filled with volunteer soldiers.
"Now this is a real success story, a
living example illustrating that the
volunteer Army program is not an
impossible dream, but a workable idea
which can be accomplished
Other points mentioned in Secretary
Calloway's report included the following:
1A comparison of disciplinary trends
for the fiscal years 1972 and 1973 finds that
the rates for AWOL, desertion, crimes of
violence, crimes against property and
irts martial are down.
?-The Army has no quotas based on
?OnWNKa?ii ? ? hi i
race. Operating under that policy, the
percentage of black males enlisting in the
Army increased from 18.7 per cent in the
calendar year 1972 to 28.2 per cent in the
calendar year 1973. Black soldiers, like all
other soldiers, are assigned throught he
Army in accordance with their enlistment
commitments and their individual
capabilities.
3Combat readiness, which is the
heart of the Army's business, has shown
significant improvement.
Judged by the stringent standards
reported to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the
divisions today much more nearly meet
their goals thatn they did at the end of the
draft. All 13 divisions are fully operational
and nearly all are ready for combat.
Republican leaders, worried about a
lack of attractive candidates for this year's
congressional elections, may find
themselves swamped by aspirants before
all the filing deadlines pass.
More and more younger members of
the GOP are beginning to see in prevailing
political conditions one of those rare
opportunities for relatively unknown
individuals to gain public office.
Ordinarily, requirements for a success-
ful campaign would include a sizeable
expenditures fund and a reasonably high
degree of name identification. This year,
these attributes may hurt more than they
help in many districts.
An example of what I am getting at
could be seen in the recent parliamentary
elections in the United Kingdom. They
produced more than 2,000 candidates for
635 seats in the House of Commons. This
was an all-time record for a British
election, even though that country's
problems are enormous and the reputation
of its politicians and its Parliament are
lower than at any time since the Great
Reform Bill in 1832.
The record-breaking turnout of
candidates in Britain was seen as result of
popular disillusionment with the country's
political system generally. Manv new-
comers to politics seemed to feel they had
a chance-or perhaps a duty-to fill what
they saw as a vacuum in proper public
responsibility.
Something similar to this seems to be
developing in the United States. There can
be no doubt that the public attitude toward
politics and politicians has been severely
damaged by the revelations in the
Watergate scandal. The situation has
been greatly aggravated by the energy
shortage and what the public regards as
Washington's failure to correct the
situation.
Many Democrats believe the entire
blame for the Watergate scandals and the
problems of inflation and energy shortages
will be assessed against the Republicans
in this year's elections. However, it is
worth noting that while the President's
rating in the public opinion polls hovers
between 28 and 30 per cent approval, the
rating of Congress is barely 20 per
cent When you add to the public's
unhappiness with Congress the fact that
both Houses are rigidly controlled by
Democrats, you begin to wonder just how
the voting public will express itself next
November.

Defense
To Fountainhead:
Although the article which appeared in
the Fountainhead on March 12th did not
refer to us, we feel it is our duty to defend
the company that we work for. The
Southwestern Program does truly offer a
'tremendous opportunity for the summer
and to say that the company relies on
"con" is the farthest thing from the
truth. Each is entitled to his own opinion
and often times things as misinterpreted.
One thing, however, must be considered
and that is facts. We believe very strongly
in the Southwestern Program and what it
stands for. Any questions concerning this
summer opportunity can be directed
towards this number 752-6669.
Floyd Soeder
D.R. Bryan
The arts
To Fountainhead:
First: I offer a belated but sincere
apology to Dean Wellington Gray and the
Art Department. I apologize for the
incorrect information (in an earlier letter)
concerning the enrollment growth of the
School of Art.
Second: During the recent election, an
erronneous rumor about the sculpture in
front of the Music Building. The Music
Building is accused of appropriating last
year's S.G.A. funds to purchase the
sculpture. For those uninformed - the
sculpture was commissioned by Dr.
Jenkins; the name, "Wind Song" is the
definition of music, as explained by Dr.
Gregory Kosteck, past composer-in-
residence. Prince Matchabelli, of perfume
fame, borrowed the name agter Robert
Edmiston began the sculpture. I wish to
personally thank Mr. Edmiston and Dr.
Jenkins for this addition to the ECU scene.
Third: ECU has a fairly new Music
Building and a nearly complete and badly
needed Art Building. Now let's complete
the cycle of Fine Arts and construct a
Drama Complex. The best Drama
Department in the state is housed in an
obsolete, former elementary school and
auditorium. Edgar Loessin, R. T.
Williams, Mavis Ray, Albert Pertalion and
others must be commended for their
professional productions in view of the
limited stage space and other logistics.
ECU should build a theater with a large
stage, adequate dressing rooms, a
well-equipped shop, extensive storage,
built-in sound system, a remote-controlled
modern lighting board, and an orchestra

Robert M. Sullivan
Socialists
To Fountainhead:
The all-encompassing idealistic view of
the Young Socialist Revolutionary
Organization should not place as much
emphasis on reconstructing our present day
society as opposed to re-examining their
own rash statements through the eyes of the
entire population.
Though Watergate in all its perspective
is a prime example that corruption can
infiltrate and take roots at a federal level,
the Y.S.A. should not take full advantage
and stereotype our entire modified
capitalistic system.
Gary Wong
The circus
To Fountainhead:
I would like to congratulate the
"Student Union" for landing big name
entertainment for East Carolina.
I feel sure that all of the kids in
Greenville will enjoy the Hanneford Circus,
as I watch my-Union fees evaporate in,
elephant dung. ,
I have no doubt that the Union will
make money on such a venture, but in
years past I had been informed that
entertainment was brought to East
Carolina for the students not hte
outsiders. Also, the reasons for not
having any real big concerts were blamed
on not enough students going due to the
danger of the coliseum being damages. Of
course, everyone knows that elephants,
due to their larage feet, do less damage
than a student jumping up and down.
Since the so called "president" of the
Student Union has vetoed any more
concerts for this year I hope all students
will attend the circus, otherwise your
Union fees will evaporate in the same pile
of dung.
If at all possible I would like for the
Dean of Student Affairs and the president
of the Union to have front row seats so a
two ton elephant will not have to look for a
fire hydrant.
With the money that the Union has
wasted on small time bands and the SGA
is going to waste on an "Inagural Ball" the
coliseum could be insured for two million
dollars and the students could have the
pleasure of someone like the "Moody
Blues
Most sincerely,
Bobby Rippy
Defense
To Fountainhead:
Spring quarter has started and it seems
that many people on this campus still are
not aware of the fact that ECU has
students who are natives of foreign
countries on its campus. This lack of
lion is probably due to the lack of
?nil ' n ian students as well
as the American students who haven't
bothered to get to know each other. It is
amusing to see the reaction of students
and faculty who ask where you are from
and my reply is "Holland Usually there is
a look of total surprise and a statment
such as "How in the world did you find this
place?" or "Do you mean we have foreign
students at ECU?" We all take pride in our
country just as you do in yours. We want
to learn as much about the U.S. as
possible but we want you also to learn
more about our countries as well. So that
nobody will be surprised to learn that a
"foreigner" is in the midst, here is a list of
the foreign students at ECU.

Arms probe impossible
By TRISTRAM COFFIN
"TRUMAN COMMITTEE" PROBE
NEEDED - In World War II, the Truman
Committee kept the arms industry
relatively honest. But such a tough
investigation today is almost impossible,
because too many high ranking
Congressmen have been paid off, one way
or another.
Robert Sherill in his profile of Speaker
Carl Albert (New York Times Magazine,
December 9) says Albert complained he
needed government contracts in his
district "to survive politically So, "North
American Aviation opened a plant in
Albert's district and so did General
Dynamics. Lockheed is there, too. The
biggest employer is the Naval Ammunition
Depot in Albert's home town In a typical
year, the Pentagon spends about $50
million on it
The National Taxpayers Union adds
that Albert, as a retired Army reserve
colonel, receives $3,770 a year in addition
to his Congressional pay of $62,500. The
Constitution states, "No Person holding
any Office under the United States shall be
a member of either House during his
continuance in office
In at least two cases, members (Rep.
John P. Van Ness of New York and Senator
James H. Lane of Kansas) forfeited their
seats by accepting commission in the
reserves. The Union says "About one
hundred seven members of Congress now
hold military reserve commissions .Fif-
teen are double dippers' who collect both
Federal pay (from Congress) and Pentagon
pensions These include Senators Barry
Goldwater, Strom Thurmond, Howard
Cannon, Hugh Scott and John Sparkman.
Public opinion is increasingly outraged
as the Administration cuts back on
domestic services and raises military
spending. A letter to the Washington Post
(January 1) argues "One of the most
appalling features of modern industry has
been the production of armaments for
private profit. This must share in the
responsibility for the incredible number of
wars and extreme violence which has
marred this century
"In the past twenty-five years, the US
alone has been responsible for scattering
some $50 billion worth of armaments
around the globe. Industries such as
Lockheed should be nationalized so that
never aga.n can private investors profit
from war and armaments
Aspin points out: "We have created a
nuclear strike force that could .eliminate
the greater part of the world's population
in a matter of minutes. Yet we have failed
to provide for twenty-seven million
Americans now living in poverty. America
is number one in military power, but we are
only 8th in doctor-patient ratio, 14th in
infant mortality, 25th in life-expectancy,
14th in literacy
OUR RECOMMENDATIONS - We
would put two screens between the arms
makers and the Pentagon.
A Weapons Evaluation Committee of
citizens independent of the arms industry
to determine whether expensive weapons
systems recommended by the Pentagon
are needed. The Committee might include
retired officers of stature, as General David
M. Shoup, former Marine Corps
Commandant; retired diplomats,
scientists, and public spirited investi-
gators, as Ralph Nader. It would look at
the recommendation with a skeptical eye,
and report to the President. If it overrulled
- the Committee, it would then be obliged to
make an announcement of its position
A Contract Negotiations Board, to
negotiate all government contracts over $1
million. This would remove the contracts
from the hands of the politicians and
pay-offs, and certainly reduce costs. Con-
tractors would have to pay penalities for
contract overruns.
A high level review to find out whether
the super missiles are relevant. They are
based on the John Foster Dulles "Cold
War" theory that Russia was ready to jump
into West Europe with armed force and
even attack the US. Actually, the real US
problem is limited wars, as Korea and
Vietnam, where bombers and missiles are
of little, if any, value, against guerrillas
who fade in and out of the battle.
A second threat is economic warfare
from nations supplying raw materials. Our
huge expenditures for superweapons adds
to our economic load. IrvingLaucks
points out this as a major cause of
inflation. Russia is obsessed with its feud
with China along a four thousand mile
frontier and with developing its resources
and technology. Robert McNamara said
four hundred nuclear warheads would
devastate most of the Soviet Union; we
now have seven thousand fortv-two.

yiefa Frankin; 'Reigns
supreme among singers'
By ANTHONY RAY EVERETTE
Staff Writer
"THE FIRST LADY OF SOUL ARETHA
FRANKLIN
In February. 1967 a record entitled
"I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You"
was released by Atlantic recording
company and immediately started its way
up the ladder of success. Thr recording
sold well over a million copies and went
gold. The singer: Aretha Franklin. That
record alone started Miss Franklin on the
road to success and one month later, in
March, she released her first album also
entitled 'I Never Loved A Man The Way I
Love You It also became certified gold.
Prior to signing with Atlantic, Aretha
was with John Hammond at Columbia
Records where she launched her
professional career. Aretha first began
singing in her father's choir at New Bethel
Church in Detroit. She is one of five
children of the Reverent CD. Franklin,
who himself is a leader in gospel music as
well as the pastor of New Bethel
-church. At the age of fourteen. Aretha was
considered to be "The Queen of
Gospel This came as a result of her
superb "Amazing Grace" recorded with
James Cleveland and his choir live in a
church in Watts.
Aretha, since her first recording at the
age of 18, has been hailed as one of the
most powerful and innovative singers in
decades. She uniquely combined soulful-
ness and emotion, purity of tone, phrasing
and improvisational ability to put her
beyond most of her contemporaries.
By the summer of 1967. Aretha Frankl in
had become the biggest female in the
world of rock and soul music. The fall and
winter of that year saw Aretha blast
through with three more million selling
singles, and an album with over a million
sells. The singles included "Respect
Fools Her album that year was 'Aretha
Arrives Aretha won the Natra Poll as
singer of the year and was
the overwhelming choice in every trade
paper poll as the female vocalist of the
year for both single records and albums.
Aretha produced another gold album in
August of 1968. Lady Soul She went on
t darn two Grammys for Best Rhythm And
Blues Recording ('Respect") and Best
Female R&B Singer of The Year. Also in
1968. Aretha toured England, France,

In 1969. Aretha got the show on the
road with a fifth million selling single,
"Since You've Been Gone becoming the
first woman to ever earn five certified gold
records from the RIAA. In 1969, Aretha
made another million selling single

the Apollo, Madison Square Garden, The

Aretha won three successive Grammy
Awards for Best Female R&B Performance
in 1970. 1971 and 1972. In her latest
album. Let Me In Your Life Aretha

RECORDS
Johnny Winter - 'Saints and Sinners
Columbia Records
ByJ.K. LOFTIN
Staff Writer
After a nine month break, Johnny
Winter is back with a new album that was
well worth the wait. Imagine him singing
and playing with greater strength and more
assurance than ever before. Add to this
well-structured arrangements, good
choice of material, and a fine production
job. courtesy of Rick Derringer, and the
result is a solid piece of work. The basic
weak points of his past six albums have
been the raw production quality and rather
loose arrangements, but these have been
improved on with this album and the result
is his best package yet.
The material on this album presents
about the broadest variety ever found on
any Johnny Winter record to date. Starting
off with "Stone County Johnny presents
his line up for the album. An up tempo
rocker, it glides instead of pushes and sets
the mood for the rest of the album. It is
also on this cut that we see the new
Johnny Winter, with female back-up
singers, brother Edgar Winter, Dan
Hartman and Rick Derringer of the Edgar
Winter Group, and dynamite drummer
Bobby Caldwell, formerly of Johnny
Winter And, and more recently of Captair
Beyond. These musicians are augments
with andor substituted by a horn section
on two cuts, as well as regular sidemen
Randy Hobbs on bass and Richard Hughes
on drums. Also in for a small guest spot is
JoJo Gunne, so accordingly, this album
ventures a bit further than anything Mr. J.
Winter has done before.
The choice of songs for the album was
well though out, including two by the
white-haired Texas himself, numbers
which prove to be among his best yet,
especially the medium tempo blues
number "Hurtin' So Bad There also
seems to be an attempt to mix the new
with the old on this record. "Blinded By
Love" by New Orleans giant Allen
Tousaint, "Rollin' Cross the Country" by
Edgar Wintei and Dan Hartman. and Van
Morrison's "Feedback on Highway 101 "are
the 1955 Chuck Berry tune "Thirty Days a
song complete with some Chuck Berry
style audience response and a sound
quality just like the old Chess studio
recordings, the 1968 Stones' number,
"Stray Cat Blues the Leiber-Stroller (of
the Coasters fame) 1954 hit of "Riot in Cell
Block No. 9 and the late fifties favorite.
"Boney Moroney Johnny treats all these
older songs in a manner which maintains
their original feel while adding a touch of
his own. The newer songs are all well
orchestrated, some having synthesized
string sections in addition to the back-up
singers, horns, and Edgar Winter's
keyboards, all new and welcome additions
to the standard sound associated with this
man for the past few years.
This album will of course appeal to the
old die-hard Johnny Winter fans, but more
importantly it should attract quite a few
who were not quite satisfied with what he
put out before. With the improved quality
of material, performance, and production,
as well as the variety presented, this
should be the big one for a man who has
been "payin' his duz and playin' de bluz"
for a long time.
Interior show
bring Autumn
colors inside
By LAURIE BRUTON
Staff Writer
Karen Swennson's Interior Design Sen-
ior Show is a good example of a home that
brings to life the colors of Autumn to the
interiors with a rustic wood-shingled ex-
terior.
The master bedroom's fabric color
scheme is tied together well in gold, blue,
green and apricot and the bedspread's
floral design that resembles needlepoint,
contains all of these colors of varying
hues. The furniture placement is neat and
concise; two easy chairs fall catty-corner-
ed to two small bedside tables on the
opposite side of the room.
The dining room's color scheme is soft
and subtle, in varying shades of browns,
golds and blues. The rug is almost
sheep-like, a cream thick shag that looks
and feels soft to the uch. The four chairs
places about a round table are shown with
a blue combination satin weave. The
wallpaper that Karen chose is an
outstanding beige and gold satin finish, on
satin weave. The curtain's fabric which
brings together nicely the wallpaper and
chair colors is made on a jacquard loom.
Her pencil drawing of the exterior of the
home, shows us how the colors she chose
for the interior coordinate and compliment
the design. The home is a split level; the
bedroom area has been divided from the
living quarters by a small staircase.
The rear of the home is mostly open to
view by three sets of four windows. A-
nother condition to the open, out-doorsy
effect of a home.
The show is exhibited on the 3rd floor
of Rawl building until March 23.

SCHEDULED CIRCUS
The Great Elephant question arose
when Student Union President-elect
Hobgood was asked why the Union
scheduled a circus but cancelled all Spring
concerts.
"The circus was booked three or four
months ago Hobgood said. "Only
recently was the Union not allowed, due to
financial loss, to have concerts. I'd like to
point out that the Popular Entertainment
committee will be undergoing a major
change - its name is being changed to the
Major Attractions Committee, and I'd like
to see four or five $20 to $25,000 concerts
each year. "To Bob Lucas' question about
the possibility of block booking - in which
one group is booked in a number of
campuses at close dates, and travels
throughout the area - Hobgood seemed
pessimistic.

Travel and adventure film
provides two hours of beauty
By BRANDON TISE
Staff Writer
Mark Twain in Switzerland
The latest travel and adventure film at ECU, "Mark Twain in Switzerland
played at Wright on Wednesday March 13. Personally narrated by Dick
Reddy, the film's maker, the film provided two hours of sheer beauty of the
Swiss Alps and entertainment, from the exerpts of Twain's book, A TRAMP
ABROAD.
Twain went to Switzerland in 1878 with his lifelong friend the
Reverend JoeTwitchell, of Hartford, Connecticut to walk across part of the
Swiss Alps and record his impressions of its beauty. Starting in Lucern, his
first part of the film recorded the splendor of Lake Lucern and the
surrounding countryside. The film was full of fairytale villages and sheer
mountainsides with waterfalls, hanging valleys and glaciers galore.
Probably the most scenic part of the journey was the views of the
Jungfrau and the Matterhorn, Switzerland's most famous mountains. I his
came after a long buggy ride to Interlaken and Kandresteg, a walk over the
treacherous Gemmi Pass and a balloon ride over part of the Swiss Alps. The
Matterhorn is presented in all of its awesome majesty in this film with
stories of unfortunate climbers who fell 4000 feet to their deaths. After a
look at St. Bernard Pass, the original home of the famous dogs, some of
Switzerland's glaciers are presented and a story was told of adventurers who
fell in a crevasse, only to be uncovered forty years later when the glacier
melted.
Dick Reddy's expertise in both journalism and cinematography were
shown in this film. The beauty of the Swiss Alps was handled well in
Reddy's film and in combination with the intimate look at Mark Twain, made
the film well worth the two hours spent.

Long-haired males flunk
(CPS)-Faculty members at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah
received authorization recently to flunk male students who wear their hair
too long or women who wear jeans on campus.
The University president, after issuing the authorization said, "We are
proud of BYU and the high moral principles for which we stand. That is why
faculty, students and administrators are deeply concerned over the
nceable departure by some students from standards of dress and
grooming we have all promised to uphold
"he president's statement was endorsed by the chairman of the Faculty
Advisor Council and the student body president.

THE UNKNOWNS
This weekend in Greensboro Bill Walton and David Thompson bring their
colleagues together in a battle for the national championship. The immovable force
versus the soaring aviator.
Yet they meet only in the semifinals, and the victor must play in the final Monday
night against Marquette or Kansas to clinch the crown.
The world knows the Bruins and Wolfpack, so let's take a closer examination of their
possible finals opponent.
Marquette is now ranked third in the Associated Press poll with a record of 25-4.
They are coached by a remarkable man named Al McGuire. McGuire is the brother of
Dick McGuire, an All-American at St. John's who later became an All-Pro with the old
New York Knicks. Al followed his brother, except he missed all the awards. For whereas
his brother could shoot, poor Al couldn't. But he learned to play defense. And if you
notice any team he coaches you'll see they play defense. Hard and fundamentally as
60und a defense as there is in college basketball.
For the last five years Marquette has won 88 percent of its games and has ranked no
worse than third any year in team defense. McGuire insists his players study and
graduate with a useful degree, and over this span 97 percent of his kids have
complied. He wins without chalk, talks, films or very much offense and little
depth.
Marquette is led by a massive man named Maurice Lucas, who though only 6'9" tall
seems to be at least that wide. He averages around 17 points and 14 rebounds a game
and keys the defense inside. Not one center he faced scored over 20 points on him this
year, and the Warriors played Notre Dame, South Carolina and most of the Big Ten
schools.
The only senior starter is guard Marcus Washington. Marcus plays like Al used to.
The point guard is Lloyd Walton, and on one wing is Bo Ellis.
Earl Tatus is the other forward and possibly the most complete player McGuire
has. He's 6'5" tall and reminds one of a young, mistake prone but hungry Elgin Baylor.
A coach of one of the Big Ten schools described Marquette best, "to beat Marquette
you must outthink McGuire. Notice how many stupid coaches there are in this game
Kansas is the surprise of the tournament since no one in the preseason gave them a
chance in the Big Eight. The Jayhawks defeated conference rival Kansas State at home
to win the conference and currently are sporting a 23-5 record.
Kansas has one fundamental problem, they're slow. Also they played in the Midwest
Regional which certainly has the weakest field. It included Oral Roberts, Creighton and
Louisville.
The Jayhawks are led by their two big men, Danny Knight and Rick Suttle. But they
have little team speed to defense a team that fast breaks, and nobody has to remind them
about the light footers in the other semifinal.
A final thought on Greensboro. McGuire has been quoted as saying, "I'm 75 percent
bull and 25 percent serious When Monday night rolls around I bet he'll be hoping they
take him 100 percent seriously.
BILL AND DAVID: THB' MEET AGAIN
Four years ago DennyCrum, then as assistant to John Wooden at UCLA and now
coach of Louisville, rushed up to Wooden in the gym after returning from a scouting trip
in the San Diego area.
Crum exclaimed, "Coach, I've just seen the greatest high school prospect ever.
Wooden reminded Crum that he had scouted Lew Alcindorat Power Memorial in New
York City.
Crum replied, "Yeah, but this kid is better
Wooden quietly turned toward his offia and said in a low voice, "Come inside - and
close the door
Today Walton has made people forget Chamberlain, Russell, Maravich, Bradley,
Lucas, Robertson, Jabbarand Mikan. They all played college ball yet Walton dominates
As for David Thompson possibly his close rival Bobby Jones of UNC described him
best, "David is so much better than everyone else he must get bored easily. Yet he never
plays bored. He does just enough to get the job done at his own pace. You can't stop
him; he can only stop himself. I think sometimes he's actually teasing us
BOXING
Look for Ken Norton to stay away from George Foreman in the early rounds in
their heavyweight fight March 26. Foreman has never been pressed since his Olympic
boxing days beyond six rounds.
Angelo Dundee, one time trainer for AM, has commented that Foreman wins all his
fights with his tremendous strength. The question is how long does that strength last.
Another added twist is that Foreman always is pushing his opponent away and then
blasting him. He used this tactic admirably against Frazier. This time though the referee
and judges have been supplied with ,films of Foreman by the World Boxing
Association. The WBA is reacting to increasing pressure that Foreman wins only by
shoving, and not by any boxing skill.
DAVE PATTON was officially named head basketball coach at East Carolina
University in a morning press conference held yesterday. The appointment came
after the controversy over former coach Tom Quinn's contract had been settled.
Hereford wins again
"Fast Eddie" Hereford, a former
ECU track star who now represents the
North Carolina Track Club, won the
Shamrock Marathon on March 16 in
Virginia Beach, Va.
His time of two hours, 27 minutes and
five seconds lopped over seven minutes off
the old record mark. "I'm still looking for
that sub-two hour, 20 minute time that will
make me a world class marathon runner
said Hereford.
The Shamrock Marathon is run on an
interesting course. The race winds its way
through the city of Virginia Beach, an
Army camp, Virginia Beach State Park and
a city park. The event attracted over 30
runners from up and down the east coast.
"Fast Eddie" had this to say about the
conditions under which he ran. "The wind
and rain slowed me down after the 15th
mile, and my cold weakened me also. But
I am sure I will go under 2:20 before the
year is out - given a flat course and good
weather
Some unexpected competition deve-
loped toward the end of the race. "I was
surprised to see two William and Mary
guys following me about ten seconds back
when I circled the flagpole at the city
park commented Hereford. "So I
stepped on it and made a minute gap
between us qver the last five miles. I must
have run the last five miles in 26 minutes
The next marathon for Hereford will be
the National AAU Marathon Champion-
ships, to be held June 2 at Yonkers, New
York. "Fast Eddie" hopes his club (NCTC)
can put two or three men in the top 10 and
win the national marathon title.
Lady intramurals begin
The Women's Intramural Program gives
women of East Carolina the chance to

individual sports al! year long.

Godwin thwarts Cavaliers,3-0
Monday afternoon the East Carolina
baseball team opened a nine-game
homestand with a convincing 3-0
whitewashing of the University of Virginia.
Starting pitcher Bill Godwin dazzled
the Cavaliers with his offspeed
specialities, limiting them to just five
scattered hits.
Ronnie Leggett tallied the first Pirate
run in the third inning. He led off with a
single, advanced on Geoff Beaston's
single, and raced plateward thanks to a
wildpitch by Cavalier hurler Dave LaCross.
Godwin and LaCross were then locked
into a pitching c-ial until ECU came to bat
in the bottom of the eighth inning.
In the eighth, Ron Staggs led off with a
walk and Mike Hogan laced a single. Carl
Summerell then executed to perfection as
he sacrificed himself, moving Staggs and
Hogan into scoring position. After a
strikeout, Bobby Harrison delivered a
clutch two-out single, driving the two
baserunners in for a 3-0 Pirate advantage.
Godwin retired Virginia in the ninth for
a complete game win that evened his
record at 1 -1.
Summerell and Harrison each collected
wo hits to pace the Pirates attack.
In recording the victory, Godwin struck
jut five Cavaliers and walked none.
Another ACC foe, the University of
North Carolina, will provide the opposition
today (Thursday) at Harrington Field.
Action will also be heavy this weekend as
Shippensburg (Pa.) State College will
"battle the Bucs Saturday and Sunday
afternoon. All games begin at 3 p.m.
1974 BASEBALL SCHEDULE
SAFE AT THIRD - East Carolina's Mike Hogan hits the dirt as he slides Into third base.
Behind the brilliant pitching of Bill Godwin, the Pirates shutout the University of
Virginia, 3-0. The Bucs were scheduled to host the UNC Tar Heels today at Harrington
Field.
Beaston has lock on keystone
If it was possible to equate college
baseball with Father Time, one could set
his watch by the play of East Carolina
second baseman Geoff Beaston.
The 5-foot-11 sophomore from High
Point, N.C. has rolled up a .321 batting
average in the Bucs' first seven games and
has played flawless defense. During the
seven-game stint, Beaston has handled 36
straight chances without an error
defensively, and in what was his best
offensive performance of the season to
date, pounded out three singles in East
Carolina's 6-4 win over Furman University
Saturday in Greenville, S.C.
East Carolina dropped the first game of
the doubleheader to the Paladins, 1-0,
nowever, and the 6-4 decision upped the
Pirates' seasonal mark to 3-4. A win over
U. Va. evened the Buc's record at 4-4.
"We really shouldn't be 4-4 now
Beaston thinks. "The team hit the ball well
against N.C. State in the first game last
week, but got beat, and two bad innings
cost us the games against Furman and
Duke.
"But everybody started hitting again in
the second game against Furman, and that
was a good sign. Our pitching staff has
been doing a good job considering how
early in the season it is. We just haven t
given them enough support
Beaston, a Pennsylvania native, lists
his most memorable career performance to
date as an American Legion game during
the summer of 1972 when he "hit for the
circuit
"I hit a single, double, triple and grand
slam home run Beaston recalls. "It came
against a team from Liberty, N.C
Beaston also made a comparison of
baseball he played, from Little League to
his present position with the Pirates. At
times, Beaston felt that he would havj
problems "excelling" rather than playing.
"I always wanted to play baseball he
says. "But I always was afraid everybody
at the next level was so much better than
me t
"I knew I could play I just dtdn t
know if I could excel
Beaston credits his older brother,
David, with being a helpful influence to his
baseball career.
"Dave pitched at Davidson last year
said Beaston. "But even when we were
kids, he was playing ball all the time and I
wanted something to do so I started
playing baseball
Trackmen travel again
Coach Bill Carson's outdoor track team
is off and roaring even though a convincing
10 out of 18 event victory sweep last week
did not count for points because of the
Pirates decision to compete as a
non-scoring team.
East Carolina opened in Raleigh
against N.C. State and Wake Forest and
posted what Carson called "good times
considering the time of the season The
Pirates blazed home first in the 440-relay,
440-intermediate hurdles, 100-yard dash,
440-run, one-mile run, the high hurdles as
well as the long jump, pole vault, the
javelin and triple jump events.
"We may do the same thing as far as
scoring in our meeting against Baptist
College and Princeton in Charleston, S.C.
this Saturday Carson thinks. "I am
trying to get the team ready for the big
meets and the conference competition
which is just ahead. I will admit, we

And through his career, Beaston said
he has been and still is constantly thankful
for the part his parents have played.
"They didn't pressure me to play said
Beaston. "They set me on a straight road
and let me judge what was best from
there. That's probably why baseball has
been more enjoyable through the years
Beaston said that if he was not playing
baseball, he would probably be "playing
golf or tennis or something else" all the
time, because he "just loves sports
Beaston came to East Carolina on the
advice of his high school coach, Roger
Hedgecock, who played baseball for the
Pirates and Beaston feels that
Hedgecock's advice was very helpful.
"If I was a recruiter, I would emphasize
the fact that a player gets a fair chance to
play here said Beaston. "This, to me, is
the biggest asset of the program: you get
an honest chance to play
That may be the truth for Beaston, but
it would not be good advice for other Pirate
second base hopefuls. Because after all,
Beaston should be around at second base
for two more years. He's just that
dependable.

Golfers place tenth
East Carolina's season opening 10th
place finish in the Palmetto
Intercollegiate Goit Tournament ove.
the weekend was "just adequate
according to first year coach Bill Cain.
"I think we were just adequ its
because frankly I expected better
scores from certain individuals based
on their performances and their rounds
in pre-season practice
"I think all scores will improve as we(
play farther into our schedule
"We did have some outstanding
performances, mainly from Doug
Owens, only a sophomore on a very
veteran team. Doug shot a 77 the first
day and then turned in two consecutive
one-under-par 71's to finish fifth in the
tournament
As a team,East Carolina finished in
a 10th place tie with North
Carolina. The 22-team tournament was
won by Georgia Southern, a growing
small college national power. Wake
Forest, behind medalist Curtis Strange,
finished a tight second.
The Pirates boast five returning
players including All-American Eddie
Pinnix, Bebo Batts, Carl Bell, Jim
Ward, Tommy Boone and Owens. Bell
had the second best tournament last
weekend, posting roundsof 76-73-75
while Tommy Bocne carded 74-76-79.
