SGA Treasury boasts $148 thousand
“We have many new programs planned for the upcoming year and we also
By JIM ELLIOTT
The Student Government Association is beginning the 1976 fiscal year with
over $148,000 in its treasury.
This surplus money has accumulated from SGA revenues over the past five
years, according to SGA President Jimmy Honeycutt.
“The 1973-74 SGA under Bill Bodenhamer, contributed $80,000 to the
accumulating surplus,” said Honeycutt.
“However wish to emphasize the fact that last year’s SGA spent all of the
fees it collected from students during the year plus some of the surplus.
also expect this year’s SGA to spend all the revenues it collects and some
of the available surplus.
encourage any club or organization on campus that needs money to approach
the SGA.”
Larry CHesson, SGA treasurer, noted the executive branch of the SGA has
already appropriated $74,517 for the upcoming year. This appropriation must
still be approved by the SGA legislature as are all expenditures.
Chesson also cited a new budgetary policy for the 1976 fiscal year.
“All transfers of monies within the budgets of organizations the SGA funds
must now be approved by the legislature,” said Chesson.
“Also, the North Carolina Association of Student Governments will have a
bdget completely separate from that of the SGA this year.”
Jenkins indicates gubenatorial interest
ECU Chancellor Dr. Leo Jenkins is
reportedly preparing to go before the
Board of Governors of the Consolidated
University of North Carolina to ask for
either a short leave of absence or vacation
time to run for Governor.
The Board of Governors currently has a
rule that bans any of the chancellors from
the 16 schools in the consolidated system
from engaging in public politics.
The rule was instituted several years
ago by the Board and is known in some
quarters as the “Jenkins Rule” since many
feel it was aimed directly at the ECU
chancellor.
Jenkins indicated at a Democratic fund
raiser held at Atlantic Beach this past
weekend that if the Board of Governors
gives him permission he will definitely run
for the governor's post.
Jenkins has been listed as a
gubernatorial hopeful for the past several
years. He has played a key role in
state-wide democratic politics but most
political observers see theEast as his
strongest region in any state-wide race.
The ECU Chancellor in an interview this
summer with a Carteret County weekly
publication noted that he had three
alternatives at this time.
Jenkins noted that he could resign his
post and run for governor, complete three
more years as university chancellor and
then retire as the present state policy
dictates or simply retire from public life
altogether now.
Since that interview in July, Jenkins
has apparently worked out what he hopes
is a compromise to the “gag rule”
predictamentthat being to seek either a
leave of absence or vacation from the
Board of Governors.

FOUNTAINHEAD seeks
best grid predictor
Beginning with this issue and running ten straight weeks, FOUNTAINHEAD will run a
football contest that will offer some $400 in prizes to the winners.
Some lucky student will end up in Miami, Florida at the Orange Bowl for picking the
winners in this weekly contest to see just who is the best campus prognosticator.
Weekly winners in the contest will win cash prizes and will then be eligible for a
winners contest set for the last week the contest will be operated. The winner of that final
contest will receive a pair of ducats to the Orange Bowl and $75.00 in cash for the trip.
First place in the weekly contest is worth $15.00 while second prize is $10.00 and
third prize is worth $5.00.
All entry blanks must be received by FOUNTAINHEAD by Friday noon following the
Tuesday issue of the paper that the contest form appears in.
Winners will be announced in the following Tuesday paper.
It is easy to win all you have to do is pick the winners of 20 collegiate grid contests.
To keep from having ties each week entrants will be asked to predict the final score of the
ECU game that week as well as predict total offensive output of Pat Dye’s charges.
Those last predictions will be used only in case of ties.
The contest is open only to students and each entry blank must carry a valid ID
number.
A football contest, long a Fall feature in many daily papers, is a new wrinkle for
FOUNTAINHEAD.
FOUNTAINHEAD editor, Mike Taylor, explained that the contest was hopefully an
added feature that the students would enjoy.
“This is a good advertising angle for us. And, at the same time it allows us to offer the
students something new in the paper, something they can actively participate in,” Taylor
continued.
“We print 8500 copies of the FOUNTAINHEAD and while it would be tough to ‘grade
CONTESTANTS in collard eating contest stuff themselves to the finish in the First
Annual Ayden Collard Festival. Contest winner, Wayne Hart, put away three pounds of
the savory vegetable in 20 minutes. Not shown is the festival’s largest collard, 40 inches
tall, entered by L.B. Hill. Celebrities included Senator Robert Morgan. See page 17.
8500 blanks, that is the total that hope we can get from the students each week,” Taylor
added.
The FOUNTAINHEAD editor encourages all students to enter the contest.
“The student has nothing to lose and a good bit of cash to win simply by entering,”
Taylor pointed out.

SGA surplus uncalled for
In a time when a lot of governmental institutions are finding the financial
going touch it is nice to know that the Student Government Association of ECU
iS on “easy street”. With a whopping surplus to start this school year of
$148,000, the ECU SGA has to be one of the few such institutions around in
such good financial shape.
The money has accumulated over the past five years, SGA officials report.
And at that rate in five more years the SGA will have over a quarter of a million
dollars sitting in its coffers in the form of surplus.
There are two sides to financial irresponsibility. The one that most of us are
most familiar with isonethe dealing with deficit spending spending that which
you don’t have. The United States and New York City are two prime examples of
this.
But, we think that at the same time not spending all revenues in hand,
except for a small surplus to cover emergency expenditures, is just afinancially
irresponsible.
Operating on the premise of the “balance budget”, most revenues should be
spent. Yet, for the past five years the SGA has “saved” $148,000.
In the past students paid their dues, in the form of activities fees, and part of
them were spent and still another part was left in surplus.
Students paid in fees the past five years expecting and rightfully sothat all
their fees would be spent on them. But, instead past SGAs did not spend all the
cash, instead they sat on part of the revenue and today we have $148,000 to
show for it.
A lot of students who have long since come and gone from this university
have money in that surplus. Yet, they paid their dues expecting a dollar’s worth
of goods and services for each dollar they paid - somethingthey did not get.
In fairness to most of the past SGAs, most of this surplus was built up while
Bill Bodenhamer was president during the 1973-74 school year. Last year,
according to SGA president Jimmy Honeycutt all revenues collected were
spent.
Honeycutt again predicts that this year the SGA will spend all it collects and
some of the surplus. For this, the current group of students can be thankful.
Students who pay fees in 1975 have a right to have those fees spent in 1975,
not 1985. But, for some reason in the past that has not been understood by
SGAs whose main legacy was the surplusa bag legacy we believe.
Student fund surpluses are acceptable when the SGA is making long range
plans to use the funds. Some type of building program or other large financial
undertakings could be expected to take large surpluses.
But, so far student fees have been left to build and as yet nobody has given
any good reason to save such amounts of cash.
One of the best services that Honeycutt and his administration can do for the
Students is spend every plug nickel that is collected this year.
There are plenty of needs in the student sector that could use the cash.
Finding ways to spend all that money could not be too hard. If it is, am sure
there are a few thousand student s who have some idea.

Spending suggestions
Having to think of ways to spend a huge surplus like $148,000 could prove to
be hard for this year’s SGA. So, in an effort to helpwe always try to help, we
have prepared a list of possible projects the SGA could undertake to help rid
their coffers of this large amount of cash.
If the SGA wanted to unload the cash in some political way there are several
alternatives. First, the SGA could give the money in small contributions, so it
would be legal, to the campaign of ECU Chancellor Leo Jenkins who wants to
run for governor. The $148,000 would be a good stake for the ECU boss.
But, if the SGA wanted to go into presidential politics there is always Terry
Sanford and his struggling campaign. Word is that Terry is having trouble
raising cash. The $148,000 would go a long ways towards boosting the former
North Carolina governor's campaign. And, if Sanford and Jenkins should win
just think of the lOUs that the ECU SGA could cash in. Jimmy Honeycutt would
make a great Secretary of State and Larry Chesson would go crazy counting all
that money as Secretary of the Treasury.
If the SGA did not like the political angle there is always the world of high
finance and big business. At this point in time-as they would say in the
Watergate hearingsthere are several good investment deals around for those
who will only take a little risk.
First, the SGA could probably buy the entire city of New York, lock, stock
and heroine addict, for $148,000. Abe Beame might even be talked into letting
“The Big Apple” go for less than that. After all, the place was purchased from
the Indians for about $25. Of course with the rate of inflation over the past
several hundred years $148,000 would be about the right price.
Of course there would be stipulations to buy New York. The SGA should
demand that the place be renamed to Greenville North.
If the SGA does not want to buy New York then Lockheed Aircraft could
probably be bought. The aircraft gaint has spent more time and money buying
off leaders around the world than making aircraft the last few years, and can
probably be had with the SGA surplus.
Of course if you like trains instead of planes then Penn Central is available.
This is the year of the rebate. The United States government and Dodge have
had little luck with rebates, but an SGA rebate could be different.
With an enroliment of 11,000, a rebate of almost $14.00 could be given to
each student. ,
But, Jimmy, in case you decide to buy New York or the Penn Central, please
make sure that you have requisitions filled out in triplicate and signed by you
know who.

Letter to the Editor
Get involved
To Fountainhead:
think the upcoming SGA Legislature
elections deserves a couple of comments.
The Fountainhead article of September
11th issue was a good one, and hope your
staff continues to keep the student body
informed on the elections and what the
SGA is doing thereafter.
As with every other established
organization, the Legislature gets
criticism, and is met with cynicism by
some students. But something the
students of ECU should remember is that
the SGA Legislature is a power on this
campus, a student power and everyday
that goes by hundreds, thousands of
students are affected by it. The buses run
because of it, student loans come from its
funds, legal advice is obtained through it,
(one of the few such legal aid services
among the universities and colleges of this
state and nation), refrigerators are rented
by it, Fountainhead goes to press twice a
week with help from it. Last year's
Legislature made self-limiting hours for
freshmen women an issue and that issue
was finally resolved in favor of the
freshmen women. The SGA also sent
a many students on weekend retreats with
faculty members improving relations and
communications between them. Also
women who became pregnant were given
financial aid to ease the burden of perhaps
a very emotional experience.
When the Legislature for 1975-1976 is
elected September 30th, the fifty or more
legislators will again tackle the problems
of our school.
do not mean to sugar-coat the SGA.
Not everything done in the past or perhaps
in the future will meet with everyone’s
approval, but the students, especially the
new students should know that SGA is not
just a glorified version of a high school
student council. It can work if the students
make it do so, but if the students don’t
take the time to vote, to get involved in the
selection of their representatives, then
nothing will get done. That would literally
be a shame for this university.
ECU is slowly, but surely getting up to
the top rung in the University system of
North Carolina. The Medical School is only
one example, our SGA budget (the second
largest in the nation, proportionally) a
second example shows the confidence and
the Board of Trustees and Chancellor have
in the students of this University. Take
stock in East Carolina, read, listen,
discuss and VOTE!

WASHINGTON The U.S. has
delivered a secret pledge to Israel that
goes far beyond the $2.3 billion in military
aid promised for 1976.
We have examined the secret accords,
which promise “to continue to maintain
Israel's defensive strength through the
supply of advanced types of equipment.
Not only in 1976 but each year
thereafter, the U.S. government will ask
Congress “for military and economic
assistance in order to help meet Israel’s
economic and military needs.”
Experts who have studied the secret
language claim it is more binding even
than the SEATO agreement, which drew
the U.S. into the Vietnam War.
Sepcifically, the U.S. promises to
supply Israel with such advanced weapons
as the Pershing ground-to-ground missiles
and F-16 fighters.
The Pershing missiles are designed to
hurl nuclear warheads, although the secret
agreement carefully stipulates that Israel
will get only missiles “with conventional
warheads.” Nevertheless, the implication,
according to our sources, is that the
Israelis will be able to attach their own
nuclear warheads.
The F-16 is America’s latest
superfighter, which hasn’t even gone into
production yet.
Both weapons are mentioned in a
separate, secret assurance to Israel. “The
United States Government agrees to an
early meeting,” it stipulates, “to undertake
a joint study of high technology and
sophisticated itemswith the view to

US has secret pact with Israel
giving a positive response.”
From the secret records, here are
additional pledges that Secretary ofSt ate
Henry Kissinger made to Israel:
Within the limts of its resources and
subject to congressional approval, the
U.S. agreed to be “fully responsiveon an
on-going and long-term basis to Israel’s
military equipment and other defense
requirements, to its energy requirements
and to its economic needs.”
- It was agreed to conduct a “joint
study by military experts” of Israel’s 1976
needs “within three weeks” after the
accords were initialed on September 1. The
U.S. promised to “view Israel’s requests
sympathetically, including its request for
advanced and sophisticated weapons.”
The Administration agreed to ask
Congress to put up money for a four-year
project “for the constuction and stocking”
of Israeli oil reserves, “bringing storage
capcity and reserve stocks now standing at
approximately six months, up to
one-year’s need.”
- The U.S. pledged to “view with
particular gravity threats to Israel’s
security or sovereigniy by a world power.”
In the event of such a threat, the U.S.
promised to “consult promptly with the
Government of Israel with respect to what
support, diplomatic or otherwise, or
assistance it can lend to Israel in
accordance with its constitutional
practices.”
Within two months, the U.S. and
Israel agreed to “conclude the contingency
plan for a military supply operation to
Israel in an emergency situation.”
-— The secret accords also stipulate
-
“FUNNY, WHEN THEY'RE THROUGH THEY KEEP ASKING HOw TO FLUSH IT?”
“that the next agreement with Egypt
should be a final peace agreement.”
Further, the U.S. “shares the Israeli
position that under existing political
circumstances, negotiations with Jordan
will be directed toward an overall peace
settlement.”
The U.S. also “regards the Straits of
Bab-el-Mandeb (guarding the entrance to
the Red Sea) and the Strait of Gibralta
(guarding the entrance to the Mediter-
ranean) as international waterways. It will
support Israel’s right to free and
unimpeded passage through such straits.”
MORE GO-GO: The Navy had scarcely
finished reprimanding the skipper of the
submarine Fineback for permitting a
topless go-go dancer to preform on the
deck when we learned about another go-go
incident this month at Moffet Naval Air
Station, Calif.
But on this occasion, a male go-go
dancer burst out of acake and entertained
85 enthusiastic Navy wives. Witnesses say
the six-foot-five sex symbol stripped
down, a la Burt Reynolds, to a crown of
leaves and a scanty bikini. The rest was
exposed muscle.
He wound up his performance by
stretching out provocatively on bearskin
rug. Refreshments were served by four
topless waiters recruited from the
squadron.
By all reports, the man in the bikini did
as much for the wives’ morale as the
topless Cat Futch did for the morale of the
submarine crewmen. Mrs. Ralph R.
Hodges, the commanding officers wife,
assured us the show was presented with
“finesse”.

Cites educational paradoxes
Pitt Tech program brings light unto the ignorant masses
By ALICE HANNIBAL
Hugh Stanley, Adult Basic Education
(ABE) director, Pitt County Technical
Training Institute (Pitt Tech) since June,
1974, said, in his office, Tuesday, the
co-existence of compulsory education and
widespread illiteracy is a paradox that
deserves serious consideration. He said he
finds it regrettable that too many citizens
who consider themselves to be “thinking,
informed and concerned” in other civic
matters are guilty of treating the problem
of illiteracy lightly.
Stanley cited facts and figures that
might shatter the complacency of those
who claim Pitt County, the home of ECU to
be the cultural center of the eastern part of
the state. He said the estimated 8,000
adults in Pitt County with less than an
eighth grade education, together with the
large numbres who have never completed
high school does not project a total picture
of the literacy situation.
“Statistics do not take into
consideration the large number of people,
though possessing a high school diploma,
are still functionally illiterate,” Stanley
said.
Stanley emphasized the fact that every
child in Pitt County for the past half
century, has been required by law to attend
school; ie, in spite of mounting tax
expenditures to increase the quantity and
quality of educational opportunities
throughout the state, illiteracy is still a
very serious problem.
Stanley, who was Evening Director at
Pitt Tech for five years prior to his present
position, said, “ABE might be considered
the most noble undertaking of the
community college system in North
Carolina.”
He said the increasing pressures of
modern living are two or three times
greater for those who cannot read or write.
They are daily exposed to frustrations and
humiliations when confronted with the
need to dial a telephone number, read
directions on a medicine bottle, fill out a
job application or read notices of
emergencies or danger.
“The Adult Basic Education Program
deals with two kinds of people who lack
diplomas,” Stanley said. “There are people
who were unable to attend school because
they had no support from the family or
came from families who looked with
skepticism upon education. On the whole,
this group never learned to read beyond
the second grade level.
“The second group are people who
have mastered the basics and have the
potentials to complete high school but
have dropped out to go to work or get
mattied because they found public
education meaningless.”
Speaking of the latter, Stanley said,
“These people to me present a tragedy.
Many are talented. Their life experience,
their practical knowledge, has made them
more qualified in many respects to earn a
living, manage a business, maintain a
family with a better than average standard
of living; yet often they are hindered in
their’ work from getting promotions
because they don’t have a high school
diploma.
“ABE offers them programs of study
enabling them to earn a county diploma or
a state high school equivalency (GED)
certificate.”
Stanley said there are hundreds of
adults enrolled in every area of Pitt
County. Most classes meet off campus in
churches, community buildings, housing
developments, city and county schools
serving a particular community. Many who
need to be served most do not attend
classes because they do ot have the
transportation, while others are ashamed
for others to know they lack a diploma;
still other do not attend because of past
traumatic school experience, have a fear of
failing again.
Freshmen
vy.) Comments;
Ms
S XY
“A majority of the students enrolled in
the program are over forty - one or two are
in their eighties. There are more blacks
than whites in attendance - many whites
who could benefit will not enroll. Women
are more likely to enroll than men.
“During the downtrend in the economy
we have experienced a greater interest
from some - not only for the high school
diploma but for further occupational
traininga tremendous increase.
“A lot are getting pinched out of jobs
when the economy dropped and have to
find some job that would offer some
security. Like during the Depression
people were out of work - no place to go -
first week blah
! A new year has begun at E.C.U. and a lot of new faces have appeared around campus,
many of which are classified as “Freshmen”. They have come from different parts of the
gcountry as well as the state and they all have their own individual backgrounds tO)
contend with. Consequently, the new role as college student is certain to require quite a
poit of adjustment. The FOUNTAINHEAD thought it might be interesting to “ask around”
and find out how some of ECU's freshmen would evaluate their first week of college life.
I
Sharon Serva, a future psychology
major, when asked what her main
adjustments to college life have been,
immediately replied, “High school didn’t
prepare me for anything! You're lead by
the hand so much that when got here,
just wasn’t ready for all of this!” All of
what? “In high school, the classes just
seem to be something to take up your
time. felt was just wasting my days
away. Now feel like I’m really going to be
accomplishing something. But know it’s
going to be tough because, like said, the
courses had to take in high school just
didn’t prepare me for the things I’m going
to be studying here.” She had a lot to say
about all of the different types of people
she is meeting here, too. “The kids are so
much friendlier than high school kids. If
you ask anybody something like where a
building is, they’re ready to help you.”
As for the professors, Sharon implied
that their impersonal attitudes didn’t
bother her because “the teachers in high
school would say that they would help
you, then they really wouldn't.” She also
said that she thought college would be
harder
Another freshman co-ed from Raleigh,
N.C. lives in White Dorm and said that the
thing about college she likes most is just
being on her own. “I’m getting to meet all
sorts of new people and do what want
without a lot of questions asked. By this,
I'm really learning a lot about
responsibility. But enjoy it. And the
people are all so different and unique.” As
to whether or not college is what she
expected, she said “In most ways it is.
When first got here, there wasn’t nearly
as much to do as thought there would be.
thought there might be more ways to get
to know people other than having to attend
all of the ‘rushes’ of the sororities. Other
than that, it’s more or less what thought it
would be. And, no, don't like how
impersonal the professors are. But the
attitudes of the students really surprised
me; wasn’t expecting them to be so open
and friendly to me. You always hear that
you're just another number in college.
Well, the professors may feel like we are,
but the students don’t treat you that way.”
Bob Dorman, a freshman dorm-dweller
and future business major, however, felt
just the opposite about our professors. “
like the way everybody is treated the same.
You don’t see so many ‘teacher's pets’ like
you do in high school. So you don’t have to
sit there and play games with them.” But
Dorman doesn’t like how everything here
seems to be so much more expensive than
in his home town.
Perhaps a telling commentary on the
aesthetic tastes of the average male ECU
freshman the thing he likes the most
about our university is the girls! “ was told
that ECU was full of beautiful women and
it sure is true! They're better than the
beach girls!” Typical, Bob. Typical!
Roland Rivera, from New York City,
was in the service before he entered ECU.
He was asked to compare his military life
with his new life in a college environment.
“I’m really having to feel my way around
here. don’t Know anybody and I’m having
to depend on my own initiative now. In the
military, they do everything for you.” When
asked if his expectations are being
fulfilled, he replied, ‘Im some ways, yes.
Like, expected to be able to find the
people nicer and friendlier than back
home. That’s one of the reasons came
down south to go to school. But one thing
that did bother me was how misinformed

they had to learn new skills.”
Many participants of ABE are not
seeking diplomas but derive great
satisfaction from being able to read their
Bibles, pass the state drivers license test
or to help their children or grandchildren
with their studies.
Stanley is convinced it takes a person
of extraordinary caliber to be a successful
teacher of adults.
“My most successful classes are the
results of a teacher's personality - who
show they came, Students can tell - it's
evident - it motivates the student,” he said.
Ola Porter, Director of Continuing
Educatoin at ECU, said the program at the
Greenville campus is geared to train
instructors to meet the requirements
demanded in the field of adult education
as typified by the Pitt Tech ABE program
to teach adults to read and write.
Stanley said the ABE program has plans
to go into cooperative agreement with the
Mental Health Center for instruction in an
Adult Day Activity Program for the
mentally retarded. There is also a
possibility of a volunteer tutoring program
if a grant can be obtained for a project
coordinator.
Commenting on the year ahead,
Standley had this to say, “there is still so
much to be done. We are making steady
progress in developing materials and
programs which are meaningful to the
student which are designed to develop
salable skills and leadership abilities.

For example, knew that all freshmen are
supposed to live in the dorms. Then came
down here and didn’t have a room. And
wasn't told anything about pre-registration

From the other fresnmen that were

seemed to be that they’re all having to
learn responsibilities that they never had
before, they don't like all of the expenses,

Increasingly popular sport
Gearing up for backpacking half the fun
Backpacking ranks 18th in popularity
among outdoor sports and it is rapidly
gaining in popularity. Within the past three
years some half dozen new backpacking
and wilderness-type camping magazines
have hit the newsstands. The number of
stores that cater to campers’ needs have
greatly increased. There are none in
Greenville, so the camping enthusiasts in
this area must resort to other methods of
obtaining their supplies.
The first place to look is catalogs or
outdoor magazines. These can be found in
the library or newsstand or can be obtained
through the mail. Some nationally Known
outdoor merchandisers via catalogs are
L.L. Bean of Freeport, Maine; Holubars of
Boulder, Colorado; Herters Catalog
Recreational Equipment, Inc. of Seattle,
Washington. Don’t forget Montgomery
Wards and Sears. You will be pleasantly
surprised with Sears’ Hillary line of
backpacking gear.
When shopping for your supplies, don't
let any salesman, advertisement, or fellow
hiker convince you that you MUST buy the
ABC backpack or XYZ tent. A wide variety
of quality materials are made by many
different manufacturers, so remember - no
one knows about all of them. Your
decision should be based on what you can
spend and what you feel about the articles
you wish to purchase - will they be right for
you? Are they what you are really looking
for?
Four basic items should be considered
important to any camper or backpacker: (1)
hiking shoes, (2) the backpack, (3) sleeping
gear, and (4) shelter.
Selecting hiking shoes should be your
first concern. Without comfortable, good
fitting, well broken-in shoes, you will find
yourself feeling miserable, even on a
one-day hike. Be sure to buy your shoes
well in advance of your trip, so that they
will be broken-in properly.

Most good hiking shoes are six inches
high, made of leather, and have thick
sturdy composition soles. Shoes like
these will weight from 212 - 5 pounds per
pair and will cost somewhere between $20
to $60. If you are just getting into camping,
hiking and backpacking, get a pair of
shoes that weigh in the 3 to 4 pound range
and cost somewhere between $28 and $34.
Take plenty of time in getting your
shows fitted. Wear the type of socks that
you will wear while hiking. Most hikers
usually wear a pair of thin inner socks and
a pair of thick outer ones. Be sure to allow
for a roomy fit if you’re planning to carry a
backpack because your feet will swell from
the weight and pressure of carrying a 30-40
pound pack hour after hour.
When purchasing a backpack, the first
thing to consider is the frame. In recent
years most backpackers have come to
prefer an aluminum frame with shoulder
straps and a waist strap, the latter strap
being of such design as to permit much of
the weight of the pack to rest on the
stronger hip bones rather than on the more
fragile shoulder bones. To this frame a
majority of backpackers are attaching a
pack of heavy duty nylon taffeta or
cordura nylon with various side pockers
and compartments to permit quick access
to any desired item. Packs that meet these
general requirements can be purchased at
costs ranging from $25 to $75. Cubic inch
capacity may range from 1500 - 1600.
If you feel that you will only make
occasional use of your pack, then you
would be wise to consider a pack and
frame combination costing in the $25 to
$30 range and having a cubic inch capacity
of perhaps 2,000 to 2,500. On the other
hand, if you’ve decided backpacking is the
thing for you, then you should be thinking
of a pack and frame combination in the $45
to $60 range with a capacity from 2,500 to
4,000 cubic inches.
Two other things to consider are
waterproofing and padded hip belts. If you
buy a non-waterproof bag and you are
hiking in wet weather areas, you may want
to buy a waterproof cover of some type for
your pack.
A padded hip belt is approximately
one-half inch thick and four inches wide
that distributes the weight of your pack
more comfortably over a wider area of your
hips than does the conventional inch-wide
belt. It adds $6 - $8 to the cost of your
backpack.
The sleeping bag and its two
accessories (ground cloth and mattress)
are next on the list of basics.
A sleeping bag can be made or bought
in a variety of fabrics and with a variety of
filler materials. You can make a simple
sleeping bag from a single blanket of
sewing it so that it is closed on three sides
The bags that you can buy at an outdoor
store, however, are generally made with
nylon ripstop or taffeta cloth and filled
with either goose down, duck down, or a
synthetic material such as dacron.
Goose down is usually considered the
warmest ounce for ounce, and duck down
is rated as 85 percent as effective as goose
down. Synthetic fills such as dacron II are
increasing in popularity, and some
backpackers consider it superior to
anything on the market. Also, they are
generally cheaper than either goose or
duck down. The synthetics are also bulkier
and firmer - the firmness being an asset in
that you need less protection between you
and ground than when the highly
compressible down filling is used. Bags
with synthetic fill are also easier to clean.
In considering how warm a sleeping
bag to buy and how much to pay, you must
first decide on what months of the year
you plan to use it. Almost 80 percent of a
sleeping bag’s use in the United States
occurs between April 1 and October 31.
If you anticipate that all of your
backpacking will be done in temperatures
above 20 degrees F, you can purchase a
lighter weight, less expensive bag than
you would need if you were a cold weather
enthusiast who planned to backpack in the
snow and ice of winter months. Presuming
you are one of the 80 percent hiking in the
warmer months, a bag with 2 Ibs of goose
down or its equivalent should be all you'll
need. Such a bag will cost you from $40 to
$80.
If you are buying a bag at an outdoor
store, ask to try it on for size. A bag two
inches too short is much too short!
There are mummy, barrel and full
rectangular bags to choose from. The
mummy bag is tapered to fit the body, is
the lightest to carry, and is the easiest to
keep warm. Some people find the mummy
bag too confining. Remember - try the bag
for size if at all possible.
Two accessories to the sleeping bag
are the ground cloth and mattress. The
ground cloth can be an inexpensive piece
of clear plastic (about a $1.00) which is
about 6 ft. by 8 ft. in size. Or, you can buy
a piece of waterproof nylon - easier to
handie but more expensive for about
$12.00.
Many backpackers are now using either
Valera or Ensolite (trade names of two
types of closed cell insulation) instead of
air mattresses or foam pads. These can be
rolled up easily and can be bought in
various thicknesses and lengths, depend-
ing on the temperatures.
The final basic to good camping or
backpacking is the tent or other emergency
shelter. A very inexpensive type shelter is
the plastic tube tent. A tube tent for one
person costs around $2.00. An 8 ft. by 10
ft. waterproof nylon tarp with grommets
costs about $20. This can be used as a tent
or a ground cloth or partially as both.
From here one can get a bona fide tent.
One-and-two man tents weighing from 3-5
pounds can be purchased for as low as
$30, and they range up to $150. The larger
family-type tents can be purchased with a
variety of things included such as sewn-in
floors, windows, and mosquito netting.
These are uSuaily cotton-canvas tents and
range in price from about $100 to $500.
A warning: Tents are highly
flammable. Most fires in tents start from
candles, fuel-fired stoves, lanterns, or
sparks from a campfire. Tents will burn in
just a few minutes, so be careful. Purchase
flame retardant tents whenever possible.
Always build your campfire downwind of
your tent. Put out all fires and other flame
sources before you go to sleep. Never
store gasoline or kerosens in or near a
tent.
If you're planning to go camping or
backpacking, come by the SCU first. We
have maps and guides to the national
parks in this country, and they are full of
pertinent information about each camp-
ground available to you. Have fun!

“The small fee and travel expenses are
well spent if we can help our out-of-state

they need assistance, and this program

Luisana, who was an out-of-state
student (Connecticut) while at ECU, will
cover the legal matter of changing

escape North Carolina's high tuition rates.
He has toured other schools during the
summer with the same information, which

be helped if they follow it.
“Last spring, a lot of SGA people and

controversy, the out-of-state students
were stuna.

Something Happened; In depth with Joseph Heller
SOMETHING HAPPENED
By CHIP GYWNN
Staff Writer
Joseph Heller wrote Catch 22 over 12
years ago and Mick Nicholas directed the
film version over five years ago. The book
not only made Heller relatively famous and
rich but also established him as an author
who could create a worthwhile
“masterpiece” out of a well worn war
genre. As a result of the critical and
commercial success of Catch 22 Heller set
the public as well as the literary critics
waiting with anticipation his next work.
Last year Heller published Something
Happened, a little over 12 years after the
publication of his first novel, and doubt if
anyone would want to make a movie of
Something Happened.
The entire novel is related through the
eyes of the dominant character, Robert
Slocum, who appears to embody nearly
every vice common to a generation of
which Heller is a part. Slocum is burdened
with a maladive personality that effects
his wife, family and friends. The novel is
an extended monologue with Bob Slocum
relating his psychological problems at
work, with his family, and with his past.
Something Happened seems to be a
celebration of pessimism if, indeed, there
is such a thing. The first paragraph shows
Slocum getting the ‘‘willies’ from
innumerable sources as he plays neurotic
mind games with himself as well as
everybody he works with.
Slocum works in an unnamed office,
where he has a rather secure job, which he
hates (naturally), but which he does well.
He lives in a Connecticut suburb with his
wife, who drinks too much, and his three
children.
As in Catch 22 Heller is again using a
well trodden theme in Something
Hapened. Ever since Stephen Crane
explored the psychological conflicts
encountered by a Civil War soldier in The
Red Badge of Courage the conflict
between man and his inner self has
become one of the most sophisiticated
forms of character conflict. Heller employs
this type of character conflict almost
exclusively in Something Happened.
Slocum’s psychological difficulties
also stem from another familiar theme.
Slocum represents the successful
businessman who is trapped between
family responsibilities and business
pressures. Both elements offer two
different areas of conflict and Slocum is
forced to do battle on two fronts.
On the home front Slocum not only has
a wife who drinks too much but he also has
a retarded child. Slocum’s youngest child,
Derek is hopelessly retarded and will never
mature above the age of five. Derek
behind Slocum the character.
Slocum’s past bears heavily on his
present state of mind. Heller structures the
book so that sections of short choppy
becomes the scapegoat for all the family
problems. Derek becomes a symbol; a
kind of visual reminder of Slocum’s
crippled mind.
Unlike most characters caught in the
middie like Slocum, we never become
personally involved with his psychological
problems, because Heller never lets the
reader get too close to his character. Heller
keeps us at a distance by never letting his
main character show any strong emotions
of love or sorrow. As a result we never
identify completely with Slocum and
therefore never seriously consider his
Situation.
Heller gets Bob Slocum in the position
of the anti-hero. But an anti-hero must
create a myth; he must surround himself
with this myth in order to create the
anti-hero character. There is no sympathy
for Slocum so there is no myth created.
Instead, Slocum is surrounded by a hard
shell of reality. He is cast in the familiar
anti-hero mold but no such hero ever
emerges.
Something Happened is a kind of
tragi-comedy, who’s humor is so bleak and
despondent that it does not even seem to
work as black humor. Heller even negates
his own humor by cuing us with a (ha ha)
every time a line appears to be witty or
clever. This ploy not only deadens the
humor but also serves as a constant
reminder that Heller the author if always
dialogue are interspersed with Slocum’s
nostalgic mind trips into the past.
Slocum’s psychological probelsm are
directly linked to some deprivity or
tramatic experience revealed in Slocum’s
trips to the past. In fact, probably every
one of Slocum’s problems could be traced
to one of these childhood defects, if one
wanted to take the time.
Probably the most distressing thing
about Something Happened is that
nothing really does happen. Except for
Slocum’s promotion in the company and
the final disaster at the end, nothing really
happens at all. And of all the things that
could go wrong in Slocum’s life, the thing
that does go wrong has no more impact
upon the reader than any other trivial
detail. The only problem is that the final
disaster is not trivial. We have been
bombarded for some 500 and some odd
pages with Slocum’s problems and fears,
both real and imaginary, both sexual and
social that we have no feeling left when
something finally does happen.
What Heller has given us is a character
who remains static from cover to cover; a
character who is not touched at all by
anything more than his own welfare and
peace of mind.
found myself at times reminding
myself that this is the same author who
wrote Catch 22 and there has to be more to
the book than am seeing. If there was
something else then missed it.
Also for all you devoted Joseph Heller
fans, Something Happened is now out in
paperback.
ECU Student Union Events: Elfington, Mr. Zodiac
The Mendenhall Student Center
Theatre will be the site of the
internationally famous Duke Ellington
Orchestra. Under the direction of Mercer
Ellington, son of the Duke, the Orchestra
is scheduled to appear in concert on
Sunday, September 21, at 3:00 p.m.
Tickets for this event are priced at $2.00 for
ECU students, $3.00 for ECU faculty and
staff, and $4 for the public. Only 750 seats
are available and it is advisable to
purchase tickets early.
The day after his fathers funeral in
May, 1974, Mercer Ellington took the
orchestra to Bermuda as previously
committed to play. It was a hard decision
to make, and hard to fulfill, but in doing so
Mercer faithfully maintained a tradition
established by Duke Ellington during his
five triumphant decades as a bandleader .
Since that time, Mercer has been at
pains to maintain that tradition musically
as well as professionally, and ethically.
The band’s library contains all the famous
compositions and arrangements, and he
has steadily reactivated items in it that had
become less familiar through neglect in
recent years. His father was so prolific that
there was inevitably a tendency to
emphasize the “new one” at the expense of
the past. It is now possible to see his
majestic output in some kind of
perspective and to restore classic to the
prominence they deserve. This Mercer is
systematically doing, and he is able also
to spring enlightening surprises by playing
compositions written by his father that
were never publicly performed.
The band’s personnel includes such
musicians as Cootie Williams, Harold
Ashby, Money Johnson and Chuck
Connors, whose long association with
Duke Ellington ensures authenticity of
interpretation. Mercer Ellington has
appeared as guest conductor at the
American Song Festival in Saratoga and at
the All-City High Schoo! Band Contest in
Los Angeles. He is also writing the
biography of his famous father.
With the Ellington Orchestra under
Mercer's leadership, Duke Ellington’s
music will continue to be a healthy and
joyous element in the twentieth century
life.

Mr. Zodiac, “The Man Who Sees
Tomorrow,” will be appearing at ECU on
Wednesday, Sept. 17, 1975 at 8:00 p.m. in
the Mendenhall Student Center Theatre.
This amazing production of mental
telepathy and second sight is being
sponsored by the Student Union Lecture
Committee.
Mr. Zodiac may call the numbers on
your dollar bill. He may answer a question
that you are simply thinking. In fact, he
may even call your first name. We are not
at liberty to reveal everything you will see
and hear during his program, but we can
tell you this: You can not see it on
television!
Mr. Zodiac always promises, “I will not
at any time reveal anything about anyone
which you yourself would not enjoy
nearing about someone else.” Years of
public performances in nearly every
important audience in the states, and
hundreds of appearances before private
organizations, guarantees that the
audience which attends this show will
leave excited, moved, and highly
entertained.
ECU students will be admitted with
their 1D and Activity card. Faculty and staff
will be admitted with their Student Center
Membership card; and public tickets are
priced at $2.00

Dropping In on
By BARBARA LEWIS
Pop Scene Service
David Carradine walked through the
halls of United Artists to the adjacent
MGM Building, alternately admiring the
photos of past film greats and throwing
fake karate choos.
His hair is trimmed close to his head
for his role as Woody Guthrie in “Bound
for Glory”, there's a hole in his left ear-lobe
where he once wore an earring, and there
are holes in a pair of cut-off jeans which
indicate that the former star of “Kung Fu”
does not wear underwear.
‘ just don’t believe in it,” he explains
over a vegetarian lunch at MGM's
commissary. As he talks, he dips crackers
into a cream pitcher and then strains out
the crumbs while he fills a saucer with
coffee
He doesn't believe in eating meat
either, and these days, he isn’t consuming
much of anything.
“Woody was frail. He was a starving
dust bowler. have to look bony. It’s
funny, you know. spent years building
myself up for Kung Fu and now don't eat
and run all the time. have to look less
than healthy.”
Playing Guthrie is a work of love for the
sandy-haired, often controversial actor
who claims that he is frequently turned
down for roles that he wants.
“I’m considered ‘bad people’ and the
studios turn away from. was dying to do
‘Logan's Run,’ but they gave the part to
Michael York instead. Playing Woodie was
something else. Vioodie was considered a
maverick like me, so it’s” really
type-casting.”
Carradine contends that his “bad
people image’ has not only affected his
career, but his estranged wife, Barbara
Hershey Seagull.
“ can’t understand it. She never did
anything controversial except to feed our
baby, Free, on the Dick Cavett Show.”
Carradine and his wife have been
separated for more than a year and
although they don’t speak, he says they
will love each other until they die. Their
marriage broke up after he was arrested for
breaking a window in a strangers house
and then playing the piano in the nude.
“The mistake made was bleeding all
over the guy’s piano. That really burned
him up.”
Why would he do such a thing? “I just
wanted to prove that people should not
lock their doors. got in through the
window, the lock didn’t stop me.”
Carradine pleaded “Non vult” and was
placed on probation for a year.
“It just means that can’t break any
windows for a year,” he says.
The incident was a turning point in his
life as well as career. Immediately after his
arrest he demanded changes within the
framework of Kung Fu. When they were
not met, he threatened to leave. And did.
He also swore off drugs and halucinogens,
admitting that he was under the influence
of peyote when he broke into the house.
“It's very peculiar, the effect the show
had on me. found myself acting out
things did on the show. couldn't handle
Kung Fu star David Carradine
it.” He had other problems with the show
which affected his life, such as finding
himself challenged by fans or anti-fans
“One time was coming out of Tower
Records on the Strip (Sunset Boulevard,
Los Angeles) and four guys approached
me. knew they were after me and ran to a
wall and by some miracle, jumped over it
and ran. could have fought them off, but
only had two weeks of training in Kung Fu
before went on the show. These guys haa
studied for years and knew what they’re
were doing. If hit someone, could kill
them without Knowing how to control it.
So, walk away from a fight.”
By coincidence, Carradine has a guitar
with him and offers to sing some of the
songs he’s doing for the movie as well as
some original material he has written. He
has a recording contract with Polydor and
will be releasing an album in October.
He’s being coached on Guthrie’s life by
Tommy Taylor, who has a master’s degree
from the University of Texas awarded for
his research into Woody Guthrie's life and
music. Taylor has an act that he has put
together of Guthrie's music which he
performs on the college circuit.
In between learning the role and the
music, Carradine is rebuilding a home
which had been partially destroyed by fire
in the Laurel Canyon section of Los
Angeles, known there by locals as “hippy
heaven.”
The house is reached by climbing over
rocks, which replace missing steps and is
guarded byCarradine’s huge shepherd.
There are no locks on the doors.
Carradine has been living there in its
unfinished state, with only a double
mattress on the floor of the bedroom and a
wicker love seat in the living room. A
double floor-to-ceiling window behind the
mattress opens out over a 100-foot drop
and Carradine sleeps with the window
open.
Friends just drop by and listen to his
tape recorder or help in the
house-restoration. A young blonde-haired

woman popped in during a photo session,
threw her arms around him and the two
embraced at length, oblivious to the other

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Hilarious; but weird
MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL
By CHIP GYWNN
Staff Writer
Python Pictures presents Monty
Python and the Holy Grail, an outrageous
comedy that rates somewhere between
insanity and predestination.
As soon as the credits begin to roll up
it becomes obvious that this is not going
to be like any other comedy you have ever
seen before . Reading the credits sounded
like reading something straight out of
“National Lampoon” and needless to say
the film itself did not deviate much from
that brand of humor.
The film is actually a series of vignettes
that are strung together by just the
thinnest thread of a story. The film takes
place in 932 A.D. and deals with the
legendary King Arthur and his nights of the
round table. The general story line involves
King Arthur and his knights as they search
for the Holy Grail.
The comedy is diverse to say the least
and the producers of the film did not feel
bound by any tradition or standard of
comedy that has even gone before. The
film makes use of animated characters and
Books
Franklin Russell combines the
narrative powers of the storyteller with the
scientific knowledge of the naturalist in
Season On The Plain, an exciting book
that re-creates the dynamics of animal and
plant life on an African plain.
The setting for Season On The Plain is
an island of vegetation in an equatorial
wasteland during the rainy season. The
plain is a composite of several actual
locales a fictionalization that englobes
grasses, trees, insects, birds, reptiles,
microscopic organisms, and grazing and
carnivorous animals as well as breeding
and migration cycles, rain and drought,
disease and age, all in a teeming network
of complex interrelations.
There are four main characters in
Season On The Plain: An isolated leopard
forced out of his own territory, a baboon
chased away from his troop, an aging lion,
and a hyena with cubs to feed. Russell
concentrates on the moments of terror and
violence in their lives that greatly influence
these animals and other inhabitants of this
African plain. “In such a world,” writes the
author, “nothing is what it seems
There are many clues but the final secret
always eludes the watcher in the audience.
He may be certain of only one thing;
triumphant life is distilled from death, and
a new sense of Africa is lodged in his
memory.”
Franklin Russell is the author of several
volumes for young readers aS well as a
number of books on natural history,
including the highly acclaimed Watchers
At The Pond. He has lived in New Zealand,
Australia, Great Britain, Canada, and the
United States. He has made nearly a dozen
trips to Africa over the past two decades,
traveling through fourteen countries by
car, airplane, camel and foot.
monsters as well as a book version of the
film which adds to the insanity and the
humor.
The film also includes a larger than life
replica of God, complete with pipe organ
music and holy trumpets. It would be
unfair if we did not mention several other
of the “stars” in the picture; black knights,
man eating rabbits, invisible horses,
Trojan rabbits, sorcerers, three headed
monsters, (not animated), the fearful
knights of Ni, (pronounced knee) and a
conglomeration is off the wall dialogue
that must be funny because it sure isn’t
serious.
Monty: Python and the Holy Grail was
obviously done on little more than the
proverbial shoestring budget and at times
it looks like an insane version os
somebodies’ home movies. However, the
camera work was quite effective and added
much to the overall effect of the film.
Much of the film is completely “off the
wall” type of humor and the scenes are so
outrageous that they almost defy
description. Monty Python and the Holy
Grail is definitely a film to see if the
National Lampoon, Firesign Theater type
of humor appeals to you.

Martin Tech
fires president
The Martin Technical Institute Board of
Trustees voted in a closed meeting
Wednesday Sept. 10, 1975 to fire the
School’s president, Dr. E.M. Hunt.
The Martin Tech board relieved Hunt of
most of his administrative authority in
finance and other areas in September 1973.
Last month, the state auditor reported
padding in the enrollment that brought the
school $45,000 in state funds that it was
not entitled to have.
For several months the school has
been experiencing internal administrative
problems.
Recently, some faculty members said
they thought their telephones were
“bugged”. A check by the State Bureau of
Investigation revealed no proof of
“bugging”.
Faculty discontent with the administra-
tion and other issues have led to the
departure of the school’s vice president
and a lawsuit from a former department
head charging that he was illegally fired,
according to the Raleigh News and
Observer.
The board did not disclose any reason
for its action.
. Dr. Joseph Carter, who is affiliated
with the N.C. Division of Community
Colleges in Raleigh, will be acting
president until a replacement for Hunt is
found.

Ragsdale Dorm to become
new Med headquarters
Firms in Wilson, Rocky Mount and
Kinston are apparent low bidders for more
than $400,000 worth of renovations to
Ragsdale Hall which will become
operating base of the new School of
Medicine at ECU.
Ragsdale Hall, a former dormitory
facing Fifth Street near the heart of the
ECU main campus was built in 1923 with
the addition of a wing in 1953. The facility
has been unused for the past two years.
ECU officials said bids which were
opened and reviewed this week were within
budgeted appropriations for the Ragsdale
renovation project which eventually will
total some $550,000. Recommendations to
accept the low bids and alternatives have
been forwarded to the University of North
Carolina General Administration for final
approval.

more, and enjoy more than when they read slowly. That's right! They

gets grant
The Driver and Traffic SafetyProgram at
ECU has received a grant of $101,400 from
the Governor's Highway Safety Program
Office for continuation and expansion of
the ECU teacher certtification program in
driver education.
Dr. Alfred S. King, coordinator of Driver
and Traffic Safety at ECU, said the
program is a result of the N.C. Board of
Education ruling which requires full
certification for all state driver education
teachers by September, 1977.
The certification standard requires
completion of an undergraduate degree
program in Driver and Traffic Safety
Education.
Certification standards of the ECU
program are based on competency. It was
adopted by the UNC Board of Governors at
the July, 1974 meeting and is the first
competency-based undergraduate pro-
gram for driver education teachers in the
nation.
“More than 900 teachers have
requrested certification through ECU, and
246 of them have now completed the
requirements,” said Dr. King.

this rural town Sept. 12 and 13.
The festival featured a parade, street
dance, rides, games, collard cooking and
eating contests, and the crowning of Miss
Collard 1975.
Willis Manning, president of the Ayden
Chamber of Commerce and one of the
movers behind the festival, explained its
beginnings.
“The idea began when Ms. Lois
Theuring, a former Cincinnati resident and
writer in her own right, contributed an
article to the Ayden News-Leader of her
impressions of life in our town,” said
Manning.
“She wrote that she loved Ayden but
hated collards. This prompted several
Ayden collard lovers to write letters to the
editor of the News-Leader challenging Ms.
Theuring’s anti-collard sentiments.
“Later, in April, when was elected
President of the Chamber of Commerce
and asked to organize a festival, jokingly
remarked it should be named the Collard
Festival. To the amazement of all, Ms.
Theuring said she would like to head the
festival herself with help from me in
organizing it.”
Manning said Monday the festival was
definitely a success and will become a
yearly event.

Mountaineers smash ECU defense, 41-25
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
East Carolina ran into a solid wall of
offense in the form of the Appalachian
State Mountaineers, as the Mountaineers’
routed ECU, 41-25, before an overflow
crowd of 13,781 in Boone.
About the only thing the Pirates proved
they could do on offense against the
Mountaineers was pass. And then only
when forced to go for broke after falling
behind 41-7.
This Pirate oddity-passing-led to three
fourth quarter Pirate touchdowns within a
ten minute span and made a one-sided
game a little closer.
Against the Apps’ second and third
team reserves, Pete Conaty hit for three
scores of 59, 77 and 6 yards. The first two
scores were to Terry Gallaher, who also
grabbed an 82 yard scoring pass from Mike
Weaver. The last scoring pass was to Clay
Burnett
The three touchdown grabs and 218
yards in receptions set single game
receiving records for Gallaher.
MOUNTIES DOMINATE
But, without the passing, the Pirates
were badly outplayed over the first 45
minutes of the game. The Mountaineers
rolled up 546 yards total offense, a school
record, in their opening game of the
season.
Most of the Mounties’ yards came on
the ground. Appalachian State lugged the
ball 82 times for 394 yards, also a school
record. During the first 45 minutes all the
Pirates had to show for their efforts was
Weaver's 82 yard pass to Gallaher.
Meanwhile, the Mountaineer offense,
led by Calvin Simon and Emmitt Hamilton,
did just about what it wanted to against
the Pirate defense. The same defense that
played so well against N.C. State last
week.
Simon picked up 92 yards on 18 carries
for the game to lead the Mounties’ rushing
attack. Hamilton added 84 yards and
Richard Patrick gained 62.
East Carolina gained 120 yards on 32
carries for their rushing punch. They added
270 yards passing to finish the game with a
total of 390 yards on offense. Passing,
Conaty hit on five of the seven passes for
166 and Weaver was four for nine for 112
yards.
APPS SCORE EARLY
The first Appalachian score came as a
result of a Jimmy Southerland fumble.
Southerland, who opened the game at
quarterback for the Pirates, furnbled on the
first Pirate possession and the
Mountaineers recovered at the 49. Simon
gained 17 to the ECU 34, then Price hit off
the right side on a 31 yard touchdown run,
breaking and eluding several tackles on the
way.
ECU failed to move the ball following
the kickoff and when ASU got the ball
back, the Apps drove until a fumble by
Price halted the drive at the six.
After a short ECU drive stalled and Tom
Daub punted, the Mountaineers drove 78
yards in 16 plays for a touchdown. Using
plays into the line, the Mounties drove the
ball at will, with Hamilton scoring from the
two.
Appalachian added another drive in the
half for the score, moving 60 yards in 11
plays. Richard Patrick scored from the one
to give ASU a 20-0 lead at the half.
Appalachian scored on its first
possession of the second half. The score
came on a 47-yard drive, which ended in a
20-yard halfback pass from Simon to
Hamilton, off a pitch from Price.
WEAVER RETALIATES
It took Weaver one play to retaliate.
Weaver hit Gallaher on an 82-yard pass.
With no one around, Gallaher waltzed into
the end zone and the score was 27-7.
Before long, however, Appalachian added
another score after a fake punt by Daub
gave ASU the ball at the Pirate 14.
ASU needed only three plays to score,
Bill Yeager fellon afumble i e end zone
when Hamilton fumbled the bail after
carrying to the goal line.
At the end of the third period, ASU was
ahead 34-7.
On the first play of the fourth quarter,
Price hit Devon Ford on an 82-yard
touchdown pass. As the Pirates’ luck
would have it, the last man who could have
reached Ford on the over-the-middle
pattern was decked by an official when the
two collided covering the play.
ASU almost scored again, driving from
their own 45 to the ECU four, but failing to
score and turning the ball over to ECU.
PIRATES RALLY
After a penalty, ECU had the ball on the
17 and Conaty, the Pirates third
quarterback of the game, entered for his
three touchdown passes in the next ten
minutes. Conaty hit Gallaher twice, first On
59 yards and next for 77 yards, and Clay
Burnett for a six yarder, following a
Mountaineer fumble, to pull ECU to within
41-25. Gallaher finished with 218 yards for
the night.
After Conaty’s heroics, the Mounties
re-inserted their first team offense, which
drove to the ECU nine yard line before the
clock ran out.
The Pirates, despite their fourth quarter
comeback, played extremely poorly on
both offense and defense, but there were
bright spots.
Harold Randolph again led the defense,
gathering up 18 tackles. Emerson Pickett
was another standout for the Pirates.
Kenny Strayhorn was the only consistent
bright spot for the Pirates’ rushing attack,
carrying 10 times for 51 yards. The Pirates’
passing was just not enough, too late.

rolled up 390 yards against Appalachian on Souther
Saturday and still came out on the short
end of a 41-25 score. Perhaps more so than
people would think.
Three of the Pirates four scores came in ,
the fourth period, as did 210 of the Pirates’
390 yards of total offense. All but 69 of the
Pirates offensive yards came in the second ,
half. Despite this, though, the Pirates were
badly outclassed by the Appalachian club.
“No doubt tonight,” said ECU coach
Pat Dye, “that everyone here could see
that Appalachian was the better team by
far. They were the far superior team this
evening.”
The Mountaineers rolled up 546 yards
total offense against the Pirates’ defense.
Most of the Mountaineers’s offense came
on the ground and, for most of the game,
they did what they wished against the
Pirates.
“ never thought their offense wouid

played super and we didn’t play well.
think it was a combination of the two.”
One of the big plays for the
Mountaineers against the Pirates was a
pitch-pass where quarterback Robbie
Price would pitch the ball to Calvin Simon,
who in tum would pass to Emmitt
Hamilton. The Apps pulled this play off
three times for 43 yards and a touchdown.
Appalachian coach Brakefield remarked on
the value of this play to his team’s effort.
“The halfback passes were a real key wA
our play,” said Brakefield. “We also had
real good inside play and were just pleased
with the total effort of our team. This
helped us to get the big lead.”

NCAA sets guidiines for college spending
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
According to recently enacted NCAA
legislation home football and basketball
teams would have had a home
advantage over their opponents, due to a
restriction placed on the number of
athletes a school may put on its traveling
squad.
Other legislation by the NCAA which
covered major areas including the limiting
of football and basketball coaching staffs,
4 the cutting of the number of scholarships
which may be offered in footbail and
basketball, and, more drastically, in the
So-called “minor sports”.
TRAVEL SQUADS
The NCAA rulings passed by the
legislature called for a cut in the number of
players who may travel with a team to an
away contest to 48 for football and 10 for
basketball.
These restrictions met with displeasure
for many coaches, especially those

involved in major college football
programs. Not only do these restrictions
cut the rewards offered to an athlete (i.e.
traveling with the team for a road game),
but they give the home school an added ad
vantage of more players for theri use.
The NCAA 48 man limit for traveling
squads was revoked by a federal court
ruling last week as an “unfair advantage”.
The court instead ruled the only
limitations which could be put on the size of
a squad was an equal number to away
squads as to home squads.
This ruling establishes an equal 60-60
limit relative to the NCAA limits previously
imposed on home team squads.
The ruling came about as a result of a
federal suit filed by Alabama head football
coach Bear Bryant against the NCAA.
Said ECU head coach Pat Dye on the
court decision to allow equal squad
numbers, “It’s just great news to our
football team, our staff and everyone
concerned. You know, in the coming four
or five years we play State and Carolina on
Wrestlers look ahead
Even though the actual defense of their
Southern Conference title doesn’t begin
until November, John Weiborn’s wrestlers
are already preparing for the season.
Welborn, himself, has been working since
the season ended last year to make this
year's team another great one.
The Pirate wrestlers have won the
Southem Conference championship four
years in a row and last year finished
unbeaten in 13 dual matches.
Depth-wise, Welborn’s 1975-76 team
appears the strongest in the middle
classes (142, 150, 158, 167 and 177) and
will have to fill holes feft by graduation at
the 118, 126, 190 pound and heavyweight
classes.
Two of the Pirates’ national qualifiers,
Dan Monroe and Jim Blair, have
graduated, and heavyweight Willie Bryant
has used up all his wrestling eligibility.
But a bevy of transfers and freshmen
keeps a smile on Welborn’s face.
“We're really deep all the way through,”
says Welborn. “The only place where we
have no one at ail retuming is at
heavyweight, but we have an excellent
freshman in D.T. Joyner.”
Joyner seems destined to follow in his
rs shoes. He, like Bryant, is
playing football for the Pirates in the fall
and wrestling in the winter. As a matter of
fact, Joyner and Bryant play the same
position on the Pirate squad - defensive
tackle.
The top wrestlers who return this year
are Paul Osman, at 126. Tom Mariott, at
142, Paul Thorp, at 150,Ron Whitcomb, at
167, and Mike Radford at 177. Marriott,
Thorp, Whitcomb and Radford are all
conference champions. Marriott and
Radford have been conference champions
before, Marriott at 142 in '72, '73 ard last
year, and Radford at 177 last year and 190
in 1973.
About Thorp, Welborn says, “he could
be one of the best wrestlers to come out of
East Carolina by the time he graduates.”
Thorp, only a sophomore, won the
conference title last year as a freshman
and went to the NCAA Nationals.
Welborn has an outstanding transfer at
158 pounds in Phil Mueller. Mueller sat out
last year after transferring to ECU from the
University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point.
While at UW-SP, Mueller placed second in
the NAIA finals in his sophomore year and
fourth in his freshman year.
The incumbent at 158 is Roger Burns
and Welborn expects the two to fight out
for the number one slot.
ECU has two returning men in the
heavy classes who Welborn hopes will be a
big help. The two are Judd Larrimore at 177
pounds and John Williams at 190 pounds.
Both wrestled some last year, but injuries
and inexperience hurt their performance.
Besides Osman at 126, the Pirates have
Jeff Curtis (118), Paul Ketcham (126) and
Clay Scott (134) in the lower weights. The
loss of three-time conference champ
Monroe at 134 leaves a big help for Scott to
fill.
Among the freshmen Welborn has
recruited are four wrestlers who fravelled
to Eruope last year as representatives for
North Carolina in international com-
petition.
The four are Ed Caldell, Mark Peters,
"Barry Purser and Kirt Tucker. All are
counted on by Welborn to give the veterans
a battle for their jobs and the team depth
overall. Add two Virginia State champions
in Wendell Hardy (118) and James Kirby
(126) and Welborn has a fine crop of
newcomers.
“We have established veterans with
- good back-up strength,” SAYS Welborn.
“Our schedule will basically remain as it
was last year and all the depth has helped
us in tournaments like the North Carolina
Collegiate and the Maryland Federation,
where we can enter more than one wrestler
in a Class.
“As of yet, don’t know what kind of
restrictions the traveling squad will have or
how it will effect us, but the grant limit
hasn't hurt us any. All in all, I’m looking for
another real good team this year.”
the road and never at home. We would
have been at a distinct disadvantage had
the limitations been kept as they were.”
Dye also praised his former boss,
Bryant, for his part in challenging the
NCAA's ruling.
“!’m elated and appreciative of coach
Bryant for having the guts to challenge the
NCAA. Nobody liked the rule anyway, not
even the NCAA after they passed it.”
The court’s ruling was met with strong
approval throughout the ranks of the
nation’s collegiate coaches.
Most college coaches were astounded
by the 10-man traveling limit, since most
major schools have squads which number
between 13 and 18 members.
Duke cage coach Bill Foster called the
restriction, “simply absurd”.
Foster, who is also President of the
American Basketball Coaches Associ-
ation, explained that less spots on a
traveling squad will mean less players
overall.
“If a guy can’t make a team’s traveling
squad, he’s going to go somewhere else.”
COACHING STAFFS CROPPED
Restrictions were put on the size of
coaching staffs. Football staffs were
limited to nine, with eight full-time
assistants, and basketball staffs were
limited to a head coach and two full-time
assistants.
Most national basketball programs
meet the NCAA restrictions, but the
restriction of eight full-time assistants hit
many of the major colleges hard. Dye, with
eight full-time assistants, is within the
restrictions.

that of deciding who to fire, was eased by
two further legislative moves from the
convention.
The first did not make the restriction
apply until 1976 and the second enabled
coaches to keep their present staffs,
regardless of numbers, as long as they did
not hire any new coaches until the staffs
were reduced to the required limits.
For example, as long as Gjaiborne
does not hire any new coaches, ne can
keep his 10 assistants. If he wants to hire
a new assistant, however, he will have to
get rid of three assistants.
SCHOLARSHIPS
The most discussed moves at the
convention were made in college recruiting
and scholarships. These restrictions will
most likely have the greatest effects on
college athletics.
The NCAA reduced the number of
scholarships which can be awarded in all
sports. In football, the mumber was
reduced from 105 to 95, in basketball, the
cut was from 18 to 15. In all other sports,
the number of maximum grants which
could be offered were reduced from 209 to
80.
The basic discussion centered around
the slight reduction in football

scholarships far smaller than expected,
and the massive reduction in minor sports
grants, far greater than expected.
Specific minor sports cuts went as
follows: baseball, 19 to 13; lacrosse, 23 to
14; track, 23 to 14; swimming, 19 to 11;
soccer, 19 to 11; wrestling, 19 to 11; ice
hockey, 23 to 20. The total number of
scholarships which can be offered in all
minor sports, 209 to 80.
These cuts in scholarships must be
achieved by August, 1976.
Despite the mild cut-back in football
scholarships, conferences like the Big
Eight and Southwest Conference fought to
prevent any cut-back.
“A hell of a lot of us survive on
football,” said Nebraska Athletic Director,
and head football coach, Bob Devaney.
“If we cut it back, we will be killing
outselves.”
Division Two schools cut football
scholarships by a greater number, as: well
as basketball scholarships. Football as
reduced from 105 to 80 and basketball from
18 to 12 for Division Two schools.
RECRUITING
As far as recruiting restrictions were
concerned, the NCAA made several major
moves to reduce costly recruiting practices
and abuses.
First, institutions are now limited to
only three in-person contacts per recruit,
to take place in the student's senior year in
high school only. Previously there were no
restrictions.
Recruits themselves will be limited to
sisits to only six schools. Presently,
recruits had no limit and top recruits often
isited as many as 20 schools.
For total visits, schools will be allowed
to bring in 75 prospects for recruitment
visits in football and 12 in basketball.
Again, previously there had been no limits
on the number of prospects which could
visit a school officially.
Said Texas football
Royal on the restrictions.
“I think we'll save money here but more
importantly we are going to help out the
kids who are getting pressured to death by
recruiters. We've cut down on multiple
contacts and we've stopped the constant,
year-round harassment.
“Illegal inducements begin when
schools stop running out of things to say
about themselves and alumni get involved.
We've finally going to give the kid a break.
It's about time.”
FINAL EFFECT ON COSTS
For the most part legislation centered
around cutting costs and NCAA Executive
Director Walter Byers feels the delegates
at the convention did a good job of this.
“ never expected them to accomplish
so much,” said Byers.
Byers said he believed that the
restrictions passed by the delegates would
save at least $15 million for Division and II
schools next year.
The recruiting regulations helped to
clean up the process of recruiting the
athletes, by limiting the trips, and the
scholarship reduction places more
emphasis on quality rather than quantity.
Two other programs were initiated. The
first was the discussion of dividing the
NCAA into three 75-team divisions for
athletic competition on a power basis
among schools. The second committee
was to look into the question of need as a
determinant for scholarships. Both these
moves could bring more sanity to the
college athletic scene in the future.

NCAA Action Not Enough
The NCAA met last month in an attempt to cut costs and save economically what is
affectionately called “college athletics”.
Well, the grand old gentlemen of the NCAA convention delegation, many of them
former football coaches, or present day athletic director-football coach types, made
some good moves to do just that—cut costs.
There is one snag, though. If the NCAA convention was indeed interested in cutting
all costs, then why then did they choose to cut the most the sports that cost the least
and, in turn, cut the least the sports that cost the most to develop?
In the case of football, it is a valid argument that most major college programs make
the majority of their income from the football program.
So, the NCAA cut the number of scholarships which could be offered to a football
athlete by ten, to 95. Meanwhile, they cut the number of scholarships which could be
offered in all the other sports, except basketball, to 80. What this means is that a school
can offer as many scholarships in one sport - football - than it can in all other sports
combined. Add the 15 allowed scholarships for basketball and the totals for football and
the other sports come out exactly the same. 95 scholarships may be used in a single year
in football and 95 scholarships may be offered in a single year for all the other sports
combined.
Surely, football benefits from this move by the NCAA, rather than suffers. Before the
moves, the most scholarships a school could offer for football were 105. In all other
sports it was 227.
Therefore, football now gets a greater percentage of the money allocated for
scholarships than ever before. In that the NCAA was trying to cut costs for football, too,
this seems a great shortcoming in their legislation.
In the past ten years, the so-called “minor sports”, minus basketball, were becoming
better funded and better in quality, due primarily to the interests and pressures of the
athletes themselves. Now it seems the NCAA has changed all that, drastically.
Perhaps the NCAA decided too soon, or too partisanistic, when they decided to cut
the minor sports scholarships apparently in favor of Keeping the football scholarships.
This writer doubts that if the number of football scholarships were reduced further to
70 that it would not hinder attendance, since most of those players the fans come to
watch would be there anyway. With better and more thoroughly thought out decisions,
the committees could have offered more scholarships to the minor sports and figured out
some way to award the 70 if the reduced numbers were adopted more frugally. Then
again, maybe the idea of awarding scholarships on the basis of need is the best idea yet.
The NCAA made some excellent moves in recruitment procedures at their Chicago
convention, but failed miserably in this writer's opinion to solve completely, and with
fairness to all sports, the economic problems they were supposedly so concerned about.
They only partly accomplished their mission.

One of the big differences in the game
was in the number of plays the two teams
ran off. Appalachian controlled greatly the
offensive part of the game, running 92
plays to the Pirates’ 49 plays.
Said Dye, “ feel we could have done
better offensively had we had the ball
more.”
But until Dye brought in Pete Conaty
and went to the air, the Pirates’ offense did
little to move the ball.
In the first half, their longest drive was
37 yards and their deepest penetration into
ASU territory was the 49. Except for Mike
Weaver's 82-yarder to Gallaher, the Pirates
third period offensive effort was
lackadasical, also. In the fourth period,
however, against the ASU reserves the
Pirates came alive. With Conaty at the
controls, the Pirates scored three times
within ten minutes and forced the Apps’
first team back into the game.
The Pirates’ passing punch proved so
powerful, in fact, that it makes it seem odd
Dye didn’t go to Conaty earlier.
Gallaher ended up with three catches
for 218 yards and three touchdowns. The
218 yards and three scores were both
single game records for a Pirate receiver.
The Pirates’ 270 yards passing also tied a
team game record set in 1970 against
Richmond.
ECU returns home for the first time this
season Saturday night to meet William and
Mary. The Indians, 33-7 losers to North
Carolina, two weeks ago, were the last
team the Pirates beat.
Another fact for Dye and his troops to
take note of is it was against the Indians
last season that Weaver had his only good
passing game of the year.
All this could mean fans in Ficklen
Stadium Saturday may see a lot more
airborne footballs. But if ECU is to win, the
passes may have to come before the fourth

By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
East Carolina University has a new
Intramural Director this year and with him
he has brought new ideas and outlooks to
improving the intramural program at ECU.
His name is Wayne Edwards and he has
come to ECU from Appalachian State,
where he had established one of the finest
intramural programs in the state.
At ECU, Edwards finds the potential
“to establish one of the finest programs in
the southeast.”
Said Edwards, “We are going to give
the studentstheir money's worth out of the
intramural program by offering them more
individual participation in addition to the
regular team participation. We want
? everyone to be a participant and not just a
spectator. We hope to make the student's
intramural fee the best investment they
make on campus.”
Edwards and his assistant, Ms. Ann
Lowdermilk, who is primarily in charge of
women’s intramurals, have brought many
new ideas to East Carolina from
Appalachian. One of these ideas is the
increased emphasis they are trying to put
on the co-recreational intramural program.
This year there will be eight
co-recreational events, including the big
co-rec carnival during fall quarter, as well
as the Inner-tube water basketball, an
event Edwards said was very popular at
Appalachian.
The co-recreational carnival, which has
been tried at ECU in past years, is being
arranged this year along the lines of the TV
show “Almost Anything Goes”, where
men and women perform together
in unusual relays or events for a
championship trophy. This meet is
planned for October 9.
Other co-recreational events will
include mixed doubles, in racquetball and
tennis, and inner-tube basketball in the
fall: Badminton mixed doubles in the
winter; and Co-Rec team volleyball, team
archery and horseshoe mixed doubles in
the spring.
The only eligibility requirement for
co-rec programs are that the participants
be students, faculty or staff at ECU.

programs, there will be no divisional
restrictions.
In the men’s programs, the set-up for
competition in team sports, will consist of
four divisions, instead of the three-divi-
sional set-up last year.
The Dormitory division will remain the
same, except that all participants from a
dormitory team must be from the same
dorm and not from different dorms.
The Fraternity division this year will
consist only of social fraternities, and no
service or honor fraternities. If a
participant is a pledge or brother of that
fraternity he is eligible. If he is playing ona
dormitory team he is ineligible to play on
a fraternity team. But if he lives in the
dormitory he may play with his fraternity,
provided he does not play on any other
team in any other division.
The third division is the Club Division.
This is made up of teams from service and
professional fraternities, as well as all
clubs recognized by the SGA andor office
of Intramural sports. No other clubs will be
eligible for this division.
Any teams which do not fall into the first
three divisions, can participate in the
fourth division, the Graduate Independent
Division.
These teams are composed of
All-campus students, faculty andor staff
groups, or graduate students.
For the championship in all divisions,
the winners of the divisions compete for
the All-Campus championship. Nine
team sports decide the Chancellors Cup
winner for each division. (The Chancellor's
Cup was formerly referred to as the
Commissioners Cup.) The sports deciding
the Chancellor's Cup will be team football,
team tennis, volleyball, basketball,
bowling, wrestling, swimming, softball
and track and field. In track and field,
wrestling and swimming, students may
also participate on their own, without team
affiliation, but team championships will
also be decided.
New men’s sports this year will be the
racquetball doubles, one-on-one basket-
ball, the arm wrestling competition and the
“run-for-the-turkey” meet.
“Run-for-the-turkey” is actually cross-
country, but this year the meet will be held
around Thanksgiving with the winner being

awarded a turkey as hisher prize.
In women’s competition, there will be
only two divisions. The two divisions will
be sororities service clubs and dorms day
students. Team sport plaques will be given
to each divisional winner and the
All-Campus champions will receive t-shirts
and a trophy for the team. The
organizational participation plaque will
continue.
Said Ms. Lowdermilk about the
women’s program, “We are going to see
what people like before we make anything
permanent. Anything which people want,
male or female, will be tried provided it is
within reason.”
Sports offered to women this year are
volleyball, speedaway, tennis, basketball,
bowling and softball for team sports and
tennis singles and doubles, badminton
singles and doubles, racquetball singles
and doubles for individual competition.
Track and field, swiming and archery will
have both individual and team awards.
In addition, students will be kept
informed through newsletters from the
Intramural office, posted schedules in
both Minges and Memorial and a weekly
column on Tuesdays in the FOUNTAIN-
HEAD.
Edwards reminds students that. all
intramural offices are now located in
Memorial Gymnasium and no longer in
Minges, also both facilities will be open
for play and student use. The gyms will be
open for use during non-competition
periods from Monday through Friday until
11 p.m Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m
‘Anything Goes’ for ECU intramurals this year
and Sunday from 1 to 9 p.m providing no
other conflicts arise. Memorial is to be
used strictly for intramural usage, since
women’s athletics have been moved to
Minges.
The free swim programs continue. At
Minges, the pool will be open from 8 to
9:30 p.m. on weekdays and 39 on
weekends. The Memorial pool will be open
from 6 to 9:30 on weekdays only. Student
identification cards will be required.
Adds Edwards, “ can’t see any school
in the southeast having what we are going
to have. see a very healthy situation for
success with a limitless future. Everyone
is cooperative to this effort and we hope to
present comiparable programs for both
men and women in all sports,
material-wise and financially.”
