$1600 worth
Mendenhall heist
nets equipment
By John Dayberry
Staff Writer
A $50 reward is being offered by the
ECU campus police for information
leading to the arrest and conviction of
the person or persons who stole more
than $1,600 of eguipment from the
Mendenhall music listening center
Thursday night
Three receivers, two cassete players,
and one turntable were stolen from the
center sometime after it closed at 10
p.m according to Paul Breitman,
associate director of the student center.
"It appeared that the side door of the
center had been jimmied open said
Breitman.
"One receiver, and several other
pieces of equipment were left. The thief,
or thieves were selective"
The theft appears to have been done
by someone who knew exactly what they
were doing, according to Breitman.
The university has no theft insurance
which will cover the equipment, and the
music listening center will be crippled
until the equipment is recovered, or
funds are made available for new
equipment.
What really concerns me is that the
students will suffer because of the
actions of the person, or persons who
stole the equipment said Breitman.
"The center will now be operating at a
maximum of one listening room, since
we only have one receiver
Anyone wanting to give information
concerning the theft may contact the
campus police, or Mr. Breitman at

SGA Treasury
investigation
planned
By Jim Elliot
News Editor
Craig Hales, chairman of the
Appropriations Committee, introduced an
amendment at the Monday session of the
Student Government Association Legisla-
ture which would make the office of SGA
Treasurer an appointed position.
Speaking before the legislature, Hales
said his committee had not overappropri-
ated student funds but had acted on the
budgetary information supplied by the
SGA Treasurer.
"As a business major, with
concentration in accounting, I find the
state of our treasury very unpleasant, and
it is our duty, I believe, to clear it up and
regain the faith of our constituents said
Hales,
The amendment passed on the first
reading. The SGA constitution requires
that a constitutional amendment pass
three readings before the legislature and
be approved by the student body to be
ratified.
Hales also called for the legislature to
delegate a committee to investigate the

Sex policies to be submitted
By John Dayberry
Staff Writer
A self-examination survey of ECU'S
sex-discrimination policies must be
submitted to the UNC system by March,
1976, according to information given at
the December 12 meeting on Title IX.
Title IX, Educational Amendments of
1972 prohibits any educational institution
receiving federal financial assistance
from using sex alone as a basis for its
treatment of students or employees.
David B. Stevens, chairperson of the
ECU Title IX Coordinating Committee
Task Force, and Dick Farris, assistant
director of ECU personnel held the
meeting in Mendenhall Student Center to
inform supervisors of the more important
provisions in the law.
"Title IX touches every facet of the
university said Stevens.
"Although I don't think anyone here
overtly and purposefully discriminates on
the basis of sex, certain traditions and
mores respected at this university
probably are discriminatory
Title IX prohibits sex-discriminatory
practices, whether purposeful or acciden-
tal in admissions, housing, academic
programs, counseling, financial aid,
athletics, and employment, among other
things.
"Under the law, we must provide an
internal, workable grievance procedure
for the students said Farris
Thirteen committees have been
established to evaluate particular areas
within the university, and to develop the
ECU policy for implementing the Title IX
requirements.
The committees are composed of
university staff, and students.
Students, employees, alumni, and
organizations servicing or deriving a
service from the university must be
informed of the requirements of Title IX,
according to Farris. "This we fully intend
to do he said.
Any student or employee of the
university who believes he or she has
been discriminated against by the
university should contact Dick Farris,
associate director of the Equal
Opportunities Programs in the Personnel
Building.
Conference withdrawal reported
By John Evans
Sports Editor
On his Friday evening sports show,
WITN-TV Sports Director Dick Jones
reported that the East Carolina University
Faculty Committee on Athletics had
voted unanimously for the university to
withdraw from the Southern Conference.
Sunday morning, the Greenville Daily
Reflector quoted East Carolina Chancel-
lor Leo W. Jenkins as saying that the
report was untrue concerning the
committee's decision.
Jenkins could not be reached for
comment by the FOUNTAINHEAD, but
Clifton Moore, chairman of the faculty
committee, said the committee had met,
but that he was not at liberty to reveal
what it had voted to do.
Moore said, "As of now, we are a
member of a conference and it would be
premature for anyone besides the Board
of Trustees to decide anything for
publication In a newspaper.
"I have seen the agenda for the next
Board of Trustees meeting in January,
and as of now there is nothing on the
agenda dealing with it
The faculty committee serves only in
an advisory capacity to Jenkins, who
makes the ultimate decision in regards to
the actions of the Board of Trustees.
"The only thing the faculty committee
can do said Moore, "is to make a
recommendation to the Chancellor and let
him make whatever action he deems
appropriate.

Dr. Edgar Hooks, who is a member of

meet last week, but I don't warn to make
a statement other than what Dr. Jenkins
has said, since he is the one who makes
the ultimate decision
Other members of the committee were
either not available or did not wish to
make a statement on the committee's
vote.
In his statement to the Greenville
Daily Reflector Jenkins said "we have no
intentions at this time of withdrawing
from the Southern Conference. We've

Attitudes must change
The incident of last October 31st simply refuses to go away.
And, with the prospects that a similar incident could happen
again maybe the student body and the SGA should not let the
issue die completely.
For, if a lesson, or lessons, can't be learned from the
incident, then the tragedy could happen all over again-except
this time it could be worse.
In today's paper the Fountainhead staff has tried to take a
look at the incident and some of the other issues that have
grown out of the Halloween incident.
One of the best items mentioned in the stories compiled by
the staff is a comment from Dennis Chestnut who is on the
Psychology staff. Chestnut contends that, "We have a university
town without a university attitude
And, with that Chestnut max have hit the nail more squarely
on the head than anyone has so far.
Police in just about any other community in American with a
large university would not have reacted the way the Greenville
PD did. Why-because of attitude.
And, until there is a basic attitude shift by the city fathers
concerning the university and its students, the possibility of a
repeat of Halloween 1975 looms very ominious on the horizon.
SGA Trends
This years term of the SGA has only been in session about
two months but the group has already established some
important trends and made some key decisions.
So far the SGA, which in the past has been accused of being
a lackluster body that only worried over financial matters, has
shown much greater concern over student related problems than
SGA's of the past.
At the same time the group has followed an established tight
money policy and given the two most important leadership post
in the SGA to a pair of sophomores.
At its initial session the SGA tapped a sophomore to hold
the Speakers post-a position of considerable power and
influence. And then the Speaker appointed another sophomore
to chair the powerful Appropriations Committee.
Both these positions in the past have been usually filled by
upperclassmen. Both the Speaker last year and the
Appropriations Chairman were seniors.
But, this years body has had more influence and direction
from underclassmen than any SGA in recent memory.
And, the SGA has shown that they are not afraid of
controversy or exercising all the power they have, or think they
have, at their disposal to right a student wrong. The now
infamous downtown incident plainly shows the legislatures
desire to do whatever they can to protect the students welfare.
"Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without
newspapers, or newspapers without government, I should not hesitate a moment to
prefer the latter

Good news
Thursday's edition of the Fountainhead will be the last;
one published until after the Christmas holidays. In tact it will
not be until January 6th before the twice weekly astonisher is
back on the streets.
So, in our issue Thursday the staff will give Fountainhead
readers a Christmas present -4a very nice one we think.
In Thursday's edition students will find nothing but
good news. And, that should be a welcome reliaf from the
reader who in the past has been barraged with riot reports, SGA
hassels, publication controversies, etc
Thursday we will dedicate the paper to the better
aspects of life on the campus and in this community as tney
relate to Christmas.
How local people help other people at Christmas will be the
theme of this paper. All our stories will deal with how campus
groups, local churches and county and city offices devote a lot
of their time and money during the Yuletide season to help
those less fortunate.
Nothing but "GOOD NEWS" in the paper next Thursday, a
pleasant change we hope.
It is interesting to note that there was a paper in California
that prided itself on being a "good news" newspaper. In every
issue they devoted all their stories to nothing but the good news
they could find to report. That paper went broke some time back
and had to close.
Hopefully, doing this for just one issue will not wreck us.
It is a little something different. Something we hope you will
like.
Just remember what the season is all about. Good tidings of
great joy

Over UNC-Chapel Hill
Student picks Greenville -ECU
To Fountainhead:
This is in response to the letter
submitted to the Daily Tar Heel by a Mr.
Ralph Ellis which appeared in the Dec. 4
issue of the Fountainhead.
Mr. Ellis blatantly stated that ECU
had no class at all. He based this
decision on what he saw here in
Greenville Halloween night. Ellis also
said two completely different types of
people attend ECU and UNC, calling the
ECU student "wild According to this
UNC diehard, the conduct he observed
here that night on the part of the ECU
students would never happen at UNC
because "Carolina has class
As an ECU student and former Chapel
Hi I Man I feel I should respond to this
ignorant assessment of ECU students
Mr. Ellis gave in his letter to the Daily
Tar Heel.
Perhaps Ellis is right in saying the
incident which occurred in Greenville
Hal'oween night could never happen at
Carolina. However, this is not because
UNC has more class than ECU. Class has
nothing to do with it. The only reason I
see a similar incident not happening in
Chapel Hill is that UNC students do not
congregate in downtown Chapel Hill like
we do here in Greenville.
As all ECU students know, the bars in
Greenville are within a block of each
other. With so many people in a small
area it should surprise no one that
incidents are likely to happen. In Chapel
Hill the bars are few and far apart and in
my opinion have little to offer when
compared to what we have here in
Greenville. Downtown Chapel Hill never
gets as crowded with students as does
Greenville because there is not that much
entertainment for the UNC students.
From my observations of UNC and
Textl

k price
reduction needed
To Fountainhead:
At the beginning of a new quarter,
students at East Carolina are subjected
to the tremendous financial burden of
paying tuiti dormitory or apartment
rent and the isic necessities of living.
To add to this burden, students are also
required to buy textbooks.
The basic tuition fees and rent are
understandable, but the prices of
textbooks have gone beyond the limit of
economic practicality. The cost of
textbooks has risen to the extent of
creating a definite financial difficulty for
a great deal of students.
Textbooks are as essential, in some
cases more essential, than professors.
Students are expected to pay anywhere
from $25 to $75 per quarter for textbooks
that will be useful for ten weeks.
Granted, many ?extbooks retain their
usefulness for long period of time and
the price can be justified. However, the
vast majority of textbooks bought by a
student at East Carolina do not retain
their value. In some cases, the book
loses its value before a quarter is over
and the student is stuck with an $8 or
$10 book that is useless.
The situation is sometimes alleviated
when the bookstore buys back the book
for half of what was paid for it. However,
in many cases a book will not be bought
back for any number of reasons. The
professor teaching the course decided
the book was inadequate or out of date,
or the course will not be offered again
until one or two quarters later. The book
buying policy of the student store is

press their opinions in the Forum. Letters

somewhat less than adaquate.
There are few alternatives offered by
the university other than the student
bookstore. There is the non-university
connected University Book Exchange
downtown. This is a good but many
times it does not have all of the books
needed. The East Carolina University
Veterans Club offers an excellent
program for the students to buy and sell
books, from and to themselves. This
program is subject to the same downfalls
of the student bookstore. That is, the
book may not be used again.
The university itself should make
some sort of attempt to help bring down
the high cost of books to the individual
student. Appalachian State University
offers a book rental program to studnets.
The students may have to buy certain
highly specialized textbooks, but the
general college books are provided for a
reasonable rental fee. If this is not
feasible for ECU, then another plan
should be provided. The Student
Government Associator could channel
some of its general fund into the student
bookstore. This would at least provide a
minimal discount for students.
The situation is complicated by many
things. First of all, all profits derived at
the bookstore benifit the university
because every penny is put into
scholarships for the students. The less of
profits from the bookstore could greatly
hinder scholarships provided.
The point to remember is that all
students not on scholarships are affected
by bookstore prices, unless, as seems to
be becoming popular, a student steals
the books needed. Whatever the case, a
definite need for reduction of book prices
is greatly needed.

Chapel Hill there is very little to do there
(unless one belongs to a fraternity or
sorority) and a visit to this place is an
exercise in boredom. This may be the
reason Mr. Ellis was in Greenville that
night instead of Chapel Hill.
The statement in Ellis' letter referring
to the ECU student as being "wild" and
completely different from his UNC
counterpart apparently had a very simple
mind behind it. The ECU student is not
any wilder than the one who attends
UNC. He just takes advantage of what
Greenville has to offer, and wants to have
a good time. If Chapel Hill catered to the
UNC student in the same fashion that
Greenville does to ECU, Mr. Ellis might
be surprised at all the "wild" people he
sees on the UNC campus. Mr. Ellis, I'd
rather be in Greenville.

Boycott
vote by SGA
wise
To Fountainhead:
The SGA made a wise move in voting
approval to boycott downtown Greenville.
The bovcott had previously been voted on
bv the legislature in a special session on
Nov. 17.
The intention of the boycott can
certainly be recognized and appreciated
by all students.
It is the right of the SGA to be
involved and for students to be heard and
in this case a boycott was a means of
fighting for that right.
A boycott by the students protesting
tactics used Halloween night would
appear to me to have created only more
hostility among students and city
officials.
It seems to me that the SGA is trying
harder than ever before to become a part
of City Council so it will be able to
express disapproval on various matters
with the hope of getting certain policies
changed.
Hostility produced by a boycott would
onlv disrupt the communications already
established between CityCouncil and the
SGA.
The SGA and the City Council need to
work together for the best interest of the
student.
Those students who feel a boycott
would be a good response by the
students are most likely basing their
opinion on emotion.
If the SGA and students are to
prevent situations like Halloween they
must join in and become an active part of
a working whole.
I believe the SGA is doing a good job
in handling the Halloween situation, the
actions of the SGA in deciding not to
boycott downtown will prove valid once
all the recommendations and facts are
concluded.

Tar Heels
bad losers
Vo Fountainhead
The letter that was printed in "The
Daily Tar Heel" by Mr. Ellis was
extremely immature. I wonder if he
understands what having class means. I
understand what having class neans, but
of course I'm an ECU student, not a
Carolina student.
I'm not in a position to talk about the
Halloween incident because I was not
present. Since Mr. Ellis admits to being
downtown perhaps he can state with
accuracy that it was ECU students that
caused the trouble. Perhaps some of the
classy Carolina people were involved.
I would also like to add that in
previous years, when Carolina and ECU
played, that I have never seen such bad
winners as Carolina. They rubbed the
wins into the ground. Of course ECU is
proud of winning the football game. It
proved, after many years of ECU being
ridiculed, that we are fierce opponents.
Also, since I am not aquainted with
every student at UNC, I can't say sat
they "M have class. In my experience it
has oeen that there are always a few
rotten apples in the basket. Mr. Ellis
seems to feel that UNC students all have
class. I know for a fact that is not the
case. Perhaps jealousy is the motivation
for the letter. ECU students know how to
enjoy life. Our famous "downtown"
proves that Mr. Ellis.
I feel and I'm sure others feel the
same way that before someone can talk
abot others, he needs to know what the
hell he's talking about. Mr. Ellis I
suggest you stay away from Greenville. I
would he:e to think such a classy person
as yourself lowering yourself by coming.
I think your letter proves your lack of
class. A person of class wouldn't write a
letter of your style. I personally think you
are a total commoner.

Over SGA actions
Class president disagrees with Pub secretary
To Fountainhead:
I would like to comment on the
statements of "Mr. Apathetic" himself,
Patrick M. Flynn. Though Mr. Flynn did
stumble across a few valid things
pertaining to the SGA, he's scraping the
bottom of a barrel I that both the
Fountainhead and Rebel have worn thin.
Though the Pub Board budget was
passed quite along time ago, one would
think that a smart horse wouldn't go to
dry well for water, at least not more than
twice. With the disclosure of the mistake
in the budget, the flood gates were
opened for criticism. This mistake is not
the complete fault of the SGA, but as
few realize, the administration has the
last word and also keeps records on the
money. Has any criticism been launched
at the business office? No, and for the
simple reason that when the SGA's name
is associated with our worse situations,
it's taken for granted that the SGA was
the number 1 villian towards our
downfall. It's a known fact that the
headlines that are given to a "goof" by
the SGA, are somewhat larger than
those, if any, that are given when the
Proposal would set

To Fountainhead:
North Carolina PIRG has learned that
the Environmental Protection Agency

guidelines which would place a
mandatory 5 cents deposit on beverage
containers at federal facilities.
TV teaching
Although I am a person who believes
in making the best of any situation, at
times I feel that complaints are a
justified means of improving conditions.
Recently during a discussion in my
freshman composition class last quarter,
several students (all of them Business
majors) brought up the problem that
television instruction creates. It seems
these students were taking Economics
111 and 112 (both three-hour courses)
with a proctor who administered exams.
They voiced their disapproval of being
unable to have a teacher in person to
whom they could direct questions or ask
for help. They also complained that the
class average was very low and attributed
this to inadequate instruction from the
screen. Other students who were
fortunate enough to have these same
courses under an instructor in person
confessed that they were doing much
better because they did have an
instructor to see and knew more about
what was expected of them on tests.
I can understand that in a university it
is impossible to cater to the individual
needs of every student. However, in the
name of knowledge, I consider it
despicable when a university saves
money at the expense of the education it
supposedly offers the student. How can
students be expected to cultivate good
attitudes or progress in life when they
are given shoddy foundations in
fundamental courses? These concerned
young men who brought this to my
attention are freshmen, and already from
this case they seem to have discovered
one rule of business; the higher learning
of economics has descended to the
mammon monsters.

Russell E. Train, Administrator of the
EPA, deserves encouragement for his
decision to issue the guidelines for
public comment. As we noted in the first
of a series of PIRG columns appearing in
college newspapers in September, Mr.
Train had been under pressure from
industry lobbyists to bury the guidelines.
Now they are out in the open and the
open process of official comment and
advocacy is at hand.
In releasing the guidelines for public
comment, the EPA chief said: "A
mandatory deposit on beverage contain-
ers should held save energy, conserve
resources, reduce pollution, lower the
mounting cost to the taxpayer of waste
collection and disposal, and provide
lower prices to the consumer
The EPA estimates that the proposed
guidelines would reduce beverage
container waste at Federal facilities by
about 65 percent, providing savings of
about two million dollars annually in
disposal and collection costs. The
guidelines are also expected to save the
energy equivalent of 2800 barrels of oil a
day in the production and distribution of
beverage containers.
This issue has reached the official
comment stage in large part because of
the knowledgeable pressure of concerned
citizens and citizen groups across the
country. Continued attention and
participation is necessary. Although most
activity must now take place in a public
forum, adverse comments and continued
industry lobbying can be expected from
anti-bottle bill forces. So that you may
know in greater detail what the
guidelines call for, you may wish to
obtain a copy of the proposed guidelines
from the Assistant Administrator for
Solid Waste Management Programs,
Environmental Protection Agency, AW
462, Washington, D.C. 20460. Comments
may be filed on behalf of you as an
individual, or on behalf of your group.
The comments do not have to be in any
special or legalistic form, but should be
sent to the address listed above prior to

SGA pulls a helpless organization out
of a hole, or sticks its neck out
pertaining to the Halloween Riot.
Mr. Flynn is toying with a bunch of
"ifs" when he talks about appropriations
to both the Rebel and Fountainhead. I've
worked on both an annual and newspaper
staff and know what goes into the
production of both. Trying to "snow" the
people that know little or nothing about
the formation of a paper is one thing, but
pulling the woll over the eyes of an
ex-reporter, is pure ignorance on the
paper's behalf. Sure a few years ago the
Rebel was a nationally prominent literary
magazine, but that was indeed a few
years ago. The money was appropriated,
but I guess that those who submitted the
request for funds, also thought that the
SGA was also going to do all the work.
The Rebel has become a "wait, see and
hope" situation. The SGA in most cases,
only appropriates, not volunteers to run
the show. In my opinion, I feel that the
Fountainhead doesn't need to be 245
pages long. If you argue that one should
look at all the ads, well if the paper were
smaller, it would cost less to print, thus
needing less advertisers and their ads.
As for the budget, or as some would
say, what's left of the budget, we're not
doomed as some would lead up to
believe. The treasurer, Larry Chesson,
has interpreted our current monetary
situation, and the students needs to
understand how the SGA and its
constituents, the students, stand. By all
means, appropriated does not mean the
funds have been spent and that
organizations will be running to the SGA
for more money and eventual rescue.
Appropriations to organizations are over
a yearly basis, and all have ueen dealt
with. WECLTs February request for salary
appropriations is not concrete, but
probable. If it were for certain that WECU

Tuesday, December 9, as I was
practicing for the swimming proficiency
test at Minges Pool, some kind-hearted
person relieved me of the great weight of
my pocketbook. Besides the large sum of
money, about $5.00, I said good-by to
my glasses, student I.D. and activity

Before I have to spend my entire
month's budget to replace some of these
items, it would be nice if this person
would kindly return the things he cannot
use, either by mail or turning them in to
a lost and-found (Mendenhall)
I would also like to know why a
locked room or locker cannot be provided
for students during the swimming
activities. That really isn't to much to
ask! I will probably spend approximately
$100 in trying to replace what someone
so sweetly took from me.

heart. Don't take things you could not
possibly use, when they are especially
valuable to the owner.

the time of year that the candidate

"right arm" won't even hold the door

WRQR may change format
By KENT JOHNSON
Staff Writer
WRQR radio station in Farmville has
been publicizing the fact that they cannot
get enough advertising to break even on
their expenses.
Listeners of WRQR have been
subjected to a plea for public support.
The public is urged to write a brie f letter
of support to the station stating that they
do not want a change in format.
Since WRQRs beginning in March of
1974, the station has been operating in
the red by more than $1,000 each month,
according to General Manager Gene
Gray.
"When we go on the air and say we
are hurting for money, that takes guts
Grey stated. "We are not just playing
some silly game
Grey, who is also manager of the
country station WFAG said that the
country station is helping to defer the
cost of running WRQR, but that it cannot
continue to work that way.
"We want WRQR the way it is, but it
is becoming a financial decision. If we
can't get advertising we will have to
change
The station has not had trouble
getting advertising from night clubs and
"headshops but that is not enough to
run the station, according to Grey.
The average advertiser for WRQR
spends $2 for each minute of advertising
time. WRQR is legally allowed 18
minutes per hour advertising time.
"We will never go higher than ten
minutes per hour said Program
Manager Danny Miller.
The final decision as to what format
the station will take in the future will be
made next week. The appeal to listeners
from the station has stopped to avoid
alienating listeners.
"There are two things which will help
kill us, apathy from the public, and the
thinking that it is an advertising
gimmick said Miller.
"Everything we do on the air is due to
listener response said Miller. "The
closest thing to a gimmick we have ever
aired is Fantasy Park, and that cost us
SI 000
The public appeal was first
announced on Monday, Dec. 8, and by
Saturday about 1200 letters were
received. About a dozen petitions ranging
from 20 to 450 signatures were also
received.
"The past month we've been averaging
only three and a half to four minutes an
hour added Grey.
"I think that our station is ahead of
its time and our audience is above
averaoe intelligence. What we want is an
honest appraisal of who our audience is
wnen we receive the results we will
analyze the data to find what age groups
listen, and catagorize the information
however possible Grey stated.
Program Manager Miller explained
that when the station began in March, a
survey was taken, mainly in the
Greenville area to determine if a station
of "progressive related contemporary
music, along the same line as WQDR in
Raleigh" was marketable in this area. The
results seemed to indicate it was.
ECU Carol music planned for Thursday
"A Ceremony of Carols arrange-
ments of medieval English Christmas
songs by Benjamin Britten, and a
selection of harp music will be featured
at the annual Christmas concert of the
ECU Women's Glee Club Thursday, Dec.
18, in the Fletcher Music Center Recital
Hall, at 8:15 p.m.
The program is free and open to the
public.
Director of the Glee Club is Beatrice
faculty. A portion of the program will be
devoted to harp music by corttemporary
composers Germaine Tailleferre, Paul
Hindernrth and Carlos Salzedo, performed
by harpist Marian Harding.
Ms. Harding is soloist at the Regency
Dining Room of the Williamsburq Inn and
also performs principle harp with the
Norfolk Symphony, the Peninsula
Symphony and the Norfolk Chamber
Consort, as well as the ECU Symphony
Orchestra
She also teaches private harp
students and is harp instructor at Old
Dominion University.
The Britten "Ceremony of Carols"
embodies the typically medieval char-
acteristics of joyousness. mystery and
deceptive simplicity. The individual
carols range from sweet lyrical tributes to
the Virgin Mary and the child Jesus to
rousing expressions of joy in the
Christmas season and the coming of
Christ.

Alcohol is the issue
ECU exempt from localordinance
By DIANE TAYLOR
Staff Writer
ECU has been exempted from a
Greenville city ordinance restricting
possession and consumption of alcoholic
beverages in public places.
City Ordinance No. 358 was replaced
by Ordinance No. 570 with a change of
one word, in a city council meeting
December 4.
Ordinance 570 reads:
Section No. 1. That Section 20-3.1 of
the Code of the City of Greenville, North
Carolina, is herpoy deleted in its entirety
and the following section is substituted
in lieu thereof:
"it shall be unlawful for any person to
drink alcoholic beverages or to offer a
drink to another person, or persons,
whether accepted or not on any public
road or street, parking lot, sidewalk, or
other city-owned or leased place within
the City of Greenville
Section 3. All ordinances or clauses
of ordinances in conflict with this
ordinance are hereby repealed.
Students to sue ECU
Two ECU students plan to sue the
educational system for back tuition paid
during the last two years.
Debby Williams and Ed Weintraub
applied for residency status in August,
and are now approaching the last step in
their appelate process. They plan to take
the case to court if their residency status
is obtained or not.
"The only reason my (residency) status
was rejected was that I do not have a
North Carolina driver's license said
'Williams.
Williams and Weintraub have both
been paying out of state tuition here at
ECU for at least two years. They are
scheduled for an appeal before the North
Carolina Resident Status Appeals Com-
mittee in Chapel Hill next month.
"I hope the Chapel Hill Committee is
better than the appeals committee on
campus Weintraub said. "The campus
committee is the biggest sham set up by
this University
ECU Business Manager Julian
Vainright stated that to gain resident
status a student must prove intent twelve
months prior to classification.
Both Williams and Weintraub have
been frustrated with the procedures that
they must follow. "I think the whole
thing is a conspiracy said Weintraub.
"There is almost $600 difference in
tuition costs per student per quarter, and
that's a lot of money
"Students are being pushed around
Weintraub said. "We only hope that our
experience will help other students in the
same boat

Ordinance 358 specified restrictions in
"publicly-owned or leased places
David E. Reed, city attorney, said "the
effect of it (new ordinance) was to
remove the campus from the wording of
the old ordinance so the (ECU)
administration would not be inhibited" (in
designating areas for possession and
consumption of alcohol).
"The City did not want to restrict
campus as to drinking, it just wanted to
keep public consumption of alcohol in
cars, on sidewalks, parking lots, etc out
of the city he added.
Under the old wording of "public
places" the campus was restricted to City
regulations. By switching to "city places"
the campus was omitted from Greenville
regulations and left to govern itself. (ECU
is on state-owned property rather than
city-owned).
"I think they (City) feel this was an
'olive branch' extension said Reed. "In
other words, if our iaw was an
impediment, we will remove that
impediment
"It was an act of good will towards
the students and university to remove it
he said.
Marine resources
award grants to ECU
Ten graduate students at ECU have
been awarded research grants by the ECU
Institute for Coastal and Marine
Resources.
Biology graduate students Kurt
Getsinger and Anthony Hall will study
the effects of the herbicide 2, 4-D on the

which clogs Kitty Hawk Bay.
Edward Proffitt, also a graduate
student in biology, has been funded to
model the flow of ocean-derived salts
within a maritime forest ecosystem on
Bogue Banks.
Graduate biologist Cynthia Blanck will
investigate the usefulness of balecypress
fringes as an index of erosion along
estuaries. Dr. Vincent J. Bellis of the
ECU biology faculty is sponsor of her
project and Proffitt's maritime forest
project.
Biology Professors Graham J. Davis
and Man M. Brinson are sponsoring the
Getsinger-Hall watermilfoil study.
Graduate geologists Ronald Crowson
and Stephen Benton will work with Dr.
Stanley R. Higgs. Crowson's project will

matter. The legislature passed this
resolution and an amendment giving the
appropriations committee this task.
In a telephone interview after the
legislature's vote, SGA Treasurer Larry
Chesson said he would welcome any
investigation to improve the financial
operations of the SGA Treasury.
"I don't see anything wrong with the
investigation said Chesson.
"But if they are looking for a guilty
party it will be hard to pinpoint the guilt
since there are so many working on the
treasury report
Dr. Jack Thornton, SGA financial
advisor, said he reviewed a financial
report prepared by Chesson last spring
and that it was correct.
"Larry (Chesson) gave a report last
Spring that was correct, but in figuring
up the treasury's balance last summer he
included the restricted surplus Dr.
Thornton said.
The restricted surplus would include
funds that were shown in the treasury's
asrets but had been earmarked for debts
of the former legislature. Dr. Thornton
said that since last Spring he had not
reviewed the SGA financial status until
Chesson had prepared this latest report
to the legislature.
Commenting on the amendment to
make the SGA Treasurer an appointed
position Dr. Thornton said he had been
pleased with the treasurers in the past
and that Chesson had been one of the
most willing learners.
Dr. Thornton did mention, however,
that there have been incidents of SGA
treasurers not reporting revenues to the
legislature to limit appropriations Dy me
SGA.
Chesson said he was also aware of
such practices in the past.
Hales said his committee would begin
the investigation of the treasury
miscalculation today.
In the first money bill to come before
it since learning of the budget mixup, the
legislature added to the appropriation by
amendment.
The legislature added almost $50 to
an appropriation which will fund a
weekend retreat for the Foreign Language
Dept.
Following this action the legislature
deleted $130 from an appropriation for
the ECU chapter of the Student National
Education Association.
Mary Lai Jarvis, president of SNEA,
said she appreciated receiving $70 from
the legislature for her organization.
"With the miscalculation in the
budget I really didn't expect to get
anything she said.

Coast Conference, but that's as far as it
has gone
The University of Richmond has
announced plans for leaving the
conference at the end of the present
school year and unofficial reports have
the school attempting to form a new
conference, with East Carolina as a
possible member.
Several teams are reportedly seeking
the spot which will be left vacant by
Richmond's withdrawal, and Western
Carolina University appears to be the
most likely to get the spot.
If this should occur, the Southern
Conference could be lowered in
classification by the National Collegiate

Hurley said his goal will be to "set up
Ford organizations on every major North
Carolina campus
In announcing Hurley's appointment,
Peden said, "We're delighted that
Marshall has accepted the position of
campus coordinator, I know that he will
do an effective and outstanding job in

Christmas, bicentennial style
By JACKSON HARRILL
Staff Writer
Today, the month of December means
only one thing to most of us; celebrating
Christmas. This connotation of the
twelfth month has been inherited by
America from her European ancestors.
All of the merrymaking and joyous revelry
that accompanies this time of year is a
tradition that has seen some hard times,
at one time there was even a law banning
the observance of the birth of Christ.
Like the language that we speak, our
customs concerning Christmas are a
mixture of those of the ones observed by
the settlers of this nation. Along with
their personal belongings, the colonists
also brought both religious and folk
features of the celebration with them.
The religious observance of Christmas
brought on quarrels between denomi-
nations during the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries. Some observed it
only as a religious feast. Puritans,
Baptists, Presbyterians, and Quakers
strongly opposed the religious obser-
vance of Christmas, but members of the
Church of England, the Dutch Reformed,
Lutheran and Roman Catholic churches,
as well as the German sects, carefully
followed the traditional celebrations.
Religious, ethnic, and national ties were
intermixed in defining attitudes towards
the festival.
Christmas came to the American
colonies while it was the subject cf a
great deal of controversy in England. For
the Church of England, the Feast of the
Nativity was one of the most important
of the year, even though the English
Puritans condemned it as "Popish" and
the secular celebrations as a "wonton
Bacchanalian feast This hostile attitude
toward observing Christmas was shared
by the New England Puritans. Records
show that on December 25, 1620, they
worked at the erection of their first
building.
The colonists were still living aboard
the Mayflower in ihe Plymouth colony, and in the Southern colonies both favorite of Catholics and Protestants
and were going ashore to construct
buildings. Like the Puritans, the Pilgrims
did not celebrate Christmas. Instead,
they concentrated on their building. Back
on the ship, the food supply of the
colonists had been greatly reduced and
water was the only beverage consumed.
The skipper of the ship, not being a
Pilgrim, broke out some of the ship's
beer and invited the Pilgrims on board to
join him in a little celebration of
Christmas. The men on shore had no
beer and complained bitterly.
The oppositions of the English
Puritans to festivals was brought
together in an act of Parliament in 1647
which abolished the observance of
Christmas, Easter and Whitsuntide.
Puritans in America enacted a law in
1659 in the General Court of
Massachusetts to punish those who
"keDt Christmas For every offense
(abstinence from labor, feasting), the fine
was five shillings (at the time, this is
estimated at $7).
Earlier, in 1621, Governor Bradford of
the Plymouth Colony publicly reprimand-
ed several "lusty young men" who
believed in playing, rather than working
on Christmas Day.
When immigration into the colonies
began by other religious groups, the
severity of the laws were lessened. In
1681 the laws against the celebration of
Christmas were repealed.
The English and Hessian troops
celebrated Christmas during the Revolu-
tionary War, a somewhat patriotic note to
the denominational controversy. General
George Washington crossed the Delaware
River on the night of December 25, 1776,
surprising and defeating the Hessians at
Trenton, New Jersey.
Despite anti-Christmas feelings, there
were a number of colonists who did not
share these beliefs. There were folk
festivals, even in parts of New England
dominated by the Puritans. In the area
around New York City, in Pennsylvania,
religious and folk celebrations were
customary in the seventeenth and
eighteerth centuries. Most of the
Christmas folk customs came to this
country from England, Holland and
Germany.
Colonists from these countries
concentrated on eating, drinking, family
gatherings, merrymaking, and joyousness
during a Christmas season beginning
well in advance of December 25th and
extending often to January 6th. National
customs were reflected by each group in
the food and drink consumed. A holiday
salutation was customary in greeting
friends, relatives, and even strangers
during the season.
From England we get the customs of
burning a yule-log, serving mince pie (the
blue laws of Massachusetts Bay and New
Haven colonies outlawed mince pies) and
plum pudding at the Christmas dinner
and "wassail "Wassail" originally meant
"warm ale but it later became a term for
a wide variety of special Christmas
beverages.
Caroling was a Christmas folk
practice, popular in the colonies and
taken over by many groups. Religious
and folk songs, included in the carols,
were tunes which had grown up about
the season. The English also brought the
traditional custom of decorating houses
and public buildings with holly, ivy and
mistletoe. Mirth, good fellowship and the
folk quality of Christmas were very much
a part of the season.
Gifts were not emphasized by the
early English colonists, though the
wealthy were expected to be generous to
the poor. Children received small
presents, but did not look to Christmas
as a time to expect gifts.
The Dutch colonists brought to New
Amsterdam (New York) a number of
Christmas folkways later incorporated
into the American celebration. St.
Nicholas was possibly the greatest; the
popular figure of good cheer was a
Yes, Jimmy, Larry, and Leo
There is a Santa Claus
alike in Holland. Adopted by many
American colonists, he lost much of his
ecclesiastical appearance.
The Dutch tradition maintains that St.
Nicholas brought presents to good
children and switches to bad on
December 5th. They were taught to leave
some hay for the white horse on which
he traveled. Both the Dutch and Germans
gave small gifts to children at Christmas,
with special attention given to the young.
Like the English, they looked to
Christmas as a time of merriment and
joy, and regarded it as a season, not a
day or a brief festival.
The Germans in Pennsylvania added
the Christmas tree to the American
celebration. In addition to these
permanent settlers, the Hessians
stationed in the colonies during the
Revolutionary War used Christmas trees
to celebrate the holiday.
The Christmas gift bringer was called
Christkindlein or Kris Kringle by the
Pennsylvania Germans. He made his
visits Christmas Eve, rather than on
December 5th, the Eve of St. Nicholas's
Day. A familiar figure was Belsnickel,
known as Knecht Rupprecht in Germany,
who had the job of being the servant of
St. Nicholas. He presented a threatening
attitude, punishing the bad children and
rewarding the good with presents.
The children of Pennsylvania Germans
decorated their trees with animal
cookies, apples, strings of popcorn and
brightly colored paper. Some groups,
such as the Moravians, put lighted
candles on their trees as early as 1752,
and later placed them in windows, a
custom later practiced on Beacon Hill in
Boston.
Building Christmas "yards" or
"gardens" was practiced by the
Pennsylvania Germans, but their repro-
duction of the manger scene, known as
the Putz, is much better known.
Like so many other things we do in
our country, our ways of celebrating
Christmas are a direct result of the
traditions brought to this country by our
forefathers. In remembering the time of
year, we ought not forget just how
wonderful and meaningful our own
celebration is. Merry Christmas, every-
one!
As Christmas draws closer, virtually
everyone is plagued by the problem of
what gift to give whom.
The FOUNTAINHEAD staff has
compiled a list of gifts they'd like to give
to people around Greenville.
For CHANCELLOR JENKINS, we'd
like to have 30,000 "All the way with Leo
J bumper stickers printed.
For JIMMY HUNNICUTT, we'd give a
free Dale Carnegie course on "how to win
friends and influence people
For the FRATS, we'd sponsor "a night
on the train" with Raquel Welch, Linda
Lovelace, Ann-Margaret, or Diana Ross.
For the GREEK LADIES, there would
be an all-expense paid trip to New York
for beauty makeovers to make them all
look like Raquel Welch, Linda Lovelace,
Ann-Margaret, or Diana Ross.
For the JOCKS AT WECU AND BIG
WOOW, we'd pay for memberships to the
Wolfman Jack Fan Club.
For the MAJOR ATTRACTIONS
COMMITTEE, the Rolling Stones, Eric
Clapton, all four Beatles, Olivia-Newton-
John, Eagles, America AND Lawrence
Welk would volunteer to appear in a
charity concert at Minges.
LARRY CHESSON would be delivered
a cashier's check for $85 thousand made
out to cash.
For the TARHEEL FOOTBALL TEAM,
there would be an invitation to a football
seminar hosted by Pat Dye.
FOR COACH DYE, Joe Namath, Fran
Tarkenton, and George Blanda would
decide to go back to college, and would
request recruitment here.
Our noble sports editor, JOHN
EVANS, would be inducted into the
"Great Sportswriters Hall of Fame
BRANDON TISE, the entertainer,
would be given Job offers from ROLLING
STONE, ZOO WORLD) VARIETY, and
the CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR.
MIKE TAYLOR, the "chief would be
given a $20 thousand gift certificate to be
redeemed at the REFLECTOR PRINTING
CO.
And last but not least, to you the
students of EZU, we wish for peace on
earth, a chicken in every pot, some pot in
every chicken, and a holiday vacation
that's both fun and safe.

Cynthia Lynn Yow
ECU student finalist
in cotton contest
By KIM JOHNSON
Staff Writer
Cynthia Lynn Yow, a sophomore at
ECU, is one of the finalists in this year's
Maid of Cotton contest sponsored by the
cotton industry.
The competition includes young
women from cotton-producing states and
is held annually to select a good will and
fashion ambassadress to represent the
cotton industry of America. The contest
will be held in Memphis, Tenn. Dec.
29-30.
The winner receives $1,500 scholar-
ship, a car, and a wardrobe of cotton
clothing. She travels internationally,
making personal calls on international
dignataries, ambassadors, and govern-
ment officials.
Other obligations involve holding
press conferences with newspaper and
magazine editors, making speeches to
national organizations and giving cotton
fashion shows.
Contestants for the Maid of Cotton
are selected not only for beauty, charm
and poise, but they must also possess a
winning personality and a background of
culture and training.
Miss Yow was screened and selected
through the Women's Residence Council
of ECU. She is an art major and has
been an honor roll student consistently.
She is a member of the Young
Democrats, the Collegiate 4-H Club and
currently serves as clerk to the SGA.
Mis Yow has won numerous awards
from civic organizations and was an
active participant in 4-H Club projects on
the local, state and national levels in the
past.
She represented her high school of
Seagrove, N.C. at the Governor's Youth
Meeting for two years and was the
school's nominee to the Mars Hill
Leadership College. In 1974, she was
selected by the Northern Piedmont Area
Development Association as the region's
"Outstanding Youth
Last summer she worked in the Public
Citizens Visitors Center in Washington,
D.C. operated by consumer advocate
Ralph Nader.
When asked why she chose to
compete for the Maid of Cotton, Miss
Yow replied, "I think it's exciting! Mainly,
though, I feel that it would be a grand
experience to be able to work with the
cotton industry as an ambassadress. The
scholarship possibilities made me decide
to do it also. It never hurts to try

Entertainment
Drama Dept. excels in 'Who's Happy Now?'
WISH
i
B
WHO'S HAPPY NOW
By BOB GLOVER
Staff Writer
The second offering of the East Carolina Playhouse, Who's Happy Now, by Oliver
Hailey, proves that when the ECU Drama department is given something to work with
(like good scripts), they can truly excel.
A great deal of praise goes to the director, Donnie Biehn, who put everything
together and made certain aspects of the play, work effectively. One feature of the
play that worked well was the live, country-western band that performed the music.
The stage business was remarkable and the details were very good, but it was the
character work that made the play as dynamic as it was. Constance Ray and John R.
Robbins gave sincere and honest performances that were outstanding.
The play was three-act, tragic-comedy situated in a bar in a small Texas town and
covered a time span of 14 years. The play was actually a play within a play, with the
son, Richard Hallen, played by Terry C. Pickard, presenting the play to his mother (a
woman in the audience), as a semi-truthful portrait of their family life. This unique
feature was not wholly effective until the third act when Richard stops the play and
speaks to his mother trying to justify why he wrote the play the way he did. The
woman in the audience gets up and leaves in disgust with the audience following her
every step in the heavy silence.
Horse Hallen (Richard's father), played by John R. Robbins, is a butcher by trade
and a red-neck by nature. His bawdy humor is funny, but not funny enough to keep
you from despising him and sometimes it's difficult finding any compassion for
Horse.
Horse has two women in his life and usually spends his evenings in the bar with
his girlfriend Faye Precious. Faye Precious is a simple minded waitress and a
hilarious character too innocent to be true. Constance Ray played Faye Precious and
it was a joy watching her perform; she was great.
Horse's wife Mary Hallen, played by Rosalie Hutchens, comes to the bar with their
son Richard to "visit" Horse. This proves to be an irritant for Horse and Richard
seems to bear the burden of his father's frustrations.
Pop, the bartender, played by Mick Godwin, is a comic-mediator, otherwise known
as the Shakespearian fool. Even though the part was small, it was the right amount of
moderation to balance Horse and Mick Godwin gave a good performance.
The literal images present throughout the play were associated with a butcher's
job. This led to a symbolic meaning, namely, the mental butchery that humans are
capable of inflicting on each other. Mavbe comedy was the inherent concept
but the underlying theme was pushed home by the overall, emotionally honest quality
of this production and the pain in my stomach was not from excessive laughter.

ink Floyd: The Starship Troopers return
WISH YOU WERE HERE
PINK FLOYD
By LEE LEWIS
Staff Writer
Something happened to Pink Floyd in
3. Here we had Pink Floyd, the
jinal starship troopers, the initial
:titioners of the co-ordinated light
w, the metallic messiahs of acid-rock
Candidly admitting their use of
chedelic drugs, the Floyd, from their
option in 1967 till 1973, had fearlessly
lored the upper realms of the cosmic
isciousness. Song titles from this
iod bare mute witness to the
iderings of this chemical caravan
et the Controls for the Heart of the
"Interstellar Overdrive "A Pillow
Winds and the morbid yet
orgettable, "Careful with that Axe,
jene").
From '67 till '73, one thing remained
isistent about the band. The general
3lic (freaks excluded) would not
chase one of their albums at
lpoint.
So what happened in 1973? They
ed it Dark Side of the Moon. The
up's ninth album, Dark Side welded
diffuse elements of rythmn
pulsion, basic progression guitar,
'anced keyboards, harmony vocals and
)tle, suggestive lyrics with pronounced
tasteful studio and tape effects. With
k Side of the Moon, Pink Floyd
lieved a musical vehicle the
ord-buying public has seldom seen
d might never see again). That 1973
urn has now sold 9 million copies and
yed on the active charts for 125
Bks.
But that was 1973 and Dark Side of
Moon. This year is now 1975 and the
v album is Wish You Were Here.
From the standpoint of the album as
whole, it is a cynical, unflattering
trait of the music industry in general,
1 Syd Barrett in particular.
Who, you ask, is Syd Barrett? Former
tarist (namer and founder of the band)
rett was co-pilot (along with bassist
Jger Waters) of the original Floyd
s, that is, until 1969. By 1969, drugs,
, and success had effectively reduced
rett to psychological pulp.
The album's longest (19 minutes in 9
ts) most complicated and competent
, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond sets
to rhythm and rhvme the rise and demise
of one Syd Barrett: rock star, hero and
villain, chemical crusader and burned
cinder. In the spectre of Barrett, Roger
Waters (he wrote the whole album) seeks
to uncover before the public eye a form
of business enterprise that takes a
teenager's soul and replaces it with an
electric guitar. "Shine On" is a tribute to
a comrade past, a comrade from whom
Rodger Waters holds deep emotions of
love, respect and pity.
With the notable exception of one cut
("Welcome to the Machine"), "Shine On"
sets a tone for the whole album. Not so
heavy, not so acid as past Floyd
ventures. Rather it is a professional
depending upon who is reading the
lyrics). (Personally, I would be tempted.)
There are certain things you will not
get on this album. There will be none of
that stratocasting electric guitar (a la
"Echoes" off Meddle). There'll be none
of the rolling thunder of "Money" (the hit
single off Dark Side). You will sorely
miss the female harmony of, again Dark
Side. Dick Parry has another sax lead
but the novelty seems worn.
All Pink Floyd albums are noted for
their sound effects, Wish You Were Here
has a good quota: cars, machines, crowd
noises, radio pickups, but no clocks,
bombs or starships like its sister, Dark
Side.
The Floyd has always sung (and
probably will forever sing) of the social
and moral phenomenon of our age: war,
ecology, space travel, religion, etc. etc.
This time it just happens to be about a
slow (or fast) form of death we call
success.
What we have with this new album is
Pink Floyd, with Rodger Waters firmly at
the helm, having finally integrated a new
member (David Gilmour), moving on. As
Pink Floyd should.
The truth is that Barrett flipped out
and almost drug the band with him. It
seems to have taken the consistent
intelligence of Gilmour on guitar to reel
the band in from the edge that the Floyd
stepped so dangerously close to with
"Careful with that Axe. Euoene"
Wish You Were Here is the logical
conclusion of a trilogy of efforts that
launched with Meddle, soared to the
heavens with Dark Side of the Moon
and returned to earth wishing you were
here.

land that has never experiened one of our

means when they say "Welcome my son!

Authorities' attitude criticized
Professors comment on student role in 'riot'
By KIM JOHNSON
Staff Writer
Streets are blocked, the police rush
inYou have five minutes to disperse
People run in every direction. Tear

through store windowsblood on the
sidewalksthumb printswill the charge
be misdemeanor or felony? And the
FOUNTAINHEAD's front page is covered
with photographs telling it all.
An Analysis
The above could very well be a
description of Oct. 31, 1974 or 1975.
Then again, this could also be a sketch
of something that occurred in Greenville
sometime around 1968. Nevertheless, the
violent consequences so closely resem-
ble each other that the description could
quite easily be the same. So what is the
difference between "then and now?"
In the late sixties, the Vietnam War
was raging. Students rose up in protest
against what they felt to be useless
bloodshed and imperialism. This was
the time when the Kent State incident
occurred and when students began
demanding more freedom in the
university systems. The sixties saw a
new racial awareness among the
Black-Americans also, and sometimes
violent confrontations arose between
these people and the authorities.
Greenville felt the impact of all of this
along with the rest of America.
Over the tact two years or so, this city
has once again been subject to student
uprisings and violent opposition to
authority. But there is one distinct
difference between what happened in the
sixties and what has been happening in
the mid-seventies: purpose. The recent
"riots" have clearly been tacking the
purpose that overshadowed such activi-
ties of the past. So why have they
occurred at all?
"In the sixties, students were working
for individual rights and privileges said
Psychologist Dennis Chestnut. "There
was a definite clarity of goals. But now
the students have all this freedom and
don't seem to know what to do with it.
But the main problem, as I see it, is that
even during the sixties, the things they
so desperately fought for were
superficial; they felt that by eliminating
such oppressions as the Vietnam War
and racial discrimination, etc their
needs would be met when, in reality, the
gratification they needed was much
deeper.
"We all have inner desires for
excitement, adventure, and for some
reason tc be alive. The students of the
sixties had what they felt to be
meaningful goals that satisfied those
desires for them. But those goals they
pushed towards are no longer valuable to
today's students. Yet those same
yearnings are still there. And as is the
social trend of our time, aspiration for
careers is just not meeting those needs.
So they 'party' like mad and when the
chance arises, there are those highly
inflammable ones that will give them that
added bit of excitement they need, such
as a confrontation with the police
Dr. Melvin J. William, professor of
sociology, agreed with Chestnut. "What
we're dealing with is the product of
suggestability. There's always a small
group in any large gathering of people
with axes to grind. Many here have been
in and out of trouble for quite some time
and they bring a whole set of attitudes
towards policemen, etc with them.
These people have friends involved thus,
also. Under circumstances like the past
two Halloweens, emotions build up and
with a little agitation, hasty treatment,
and challenge, those people respond,
carrying the rest of the crowd with
them
Dr. Williams added another point that
he felt to be a pertinent factor in
ensuring actions such as the Halloween
"riot lack of communication.
"We all carry concepts of what our
rights are. And one of these rights is
invariably the right to communicate.
What kind of communication can you
have when you're told that you have five
minutes to disperse?"
One other reason for the recent
disturbances in downtown Greenville that
both professors assert is the attitude of
the city officials toward the students. As
Chestnut put it, "We have a university
town without a university attitude. ECU
dominates the whole town and the
administrative officials don't want to
admit it. Whereas most of the students
lived on campus back in the sixties, the
majority now live off.
Therefore the city is having to de
with them more than it used to, and it
just not ready. If a university is going
exist in this city the officials are going
have to make allowances. So people car
go downtown at night and shop becau:
of all the kids crowding the sidewalk
Well, I guess that's one of the prio
they are going to have to pay to ha

"The problem here is in the w�
expected crowds are dealt with add
Dr. Williams. "Normally, Halloween

keeping with the nature of the holid;
itself. I believe that if the city would tal
a more positive attitude towards tt
university students and plan to mat
allowances for such occasions
Halloween, it would be more enjoyab
for everyone instead of turning into
confrontation
For final comment on Greenville
latest downtown agitations, tf
FOUNTAINHEAD turned to a man wt
has been quite closely involved wi-
them: Chief E.G. Cannon of the Greenvil
City P.D. In consideration of tf
professors' ideas about city attitude
Cannon stated that it's the polk
department's duty to adhere to ci
ordinances. "Until we're told different!
our job is to keep the streets open to fre
traffic flow on all occasions, Hallowe

3shman Chubby Abshire suggests
he police should have blocked off

e majority of suggestions concur-
Nh Abshire's. The next most
ar suggestion was for the city to
offer the students alternatives to
downtown on Halloween. Still
another suggestion was to use the Town
Mall for a Halloween Party. The Mall was
still under construction this Halloween.
Regardless of what has been and
what is being done by the Student
Government Association and Greenville
City Manager Harry Hagerty, some
students still believe that Halloween riots
downtown will continue to happen.
Among those who predict another riot
is Ruffin Johnson. Johnson, who
remembers the riot last Halloween, says
he believes riots are becoming an annual
event for the downtown.
Sharing Johnson's view is Chubby
Abshire who says "they're making
Halloween riots a yearly thing. It's like
the Homecoming football game
Unanswered questions concerning the
Halloween riot in downtown Greenville
still remain although many actions have
already been taken to prevent such an
incident in the future.
"A lot of things were distorted from
both points of view, so a lot of questions
will remain unanswered said Ruffin
Johnson, a graduate student in
occupational therapy. "I would not blame
either side
Unlike Johnson, a majority of the
twenty students interviewed blamed the
police. Few students who did say the
disturbance was partially the students'
fault asked to remain anonymous. All
students were chosen at random.
The concensus of the majority of
students was that the police overreacted.

Cannon was also asked to comment
on what he felt to be the differences
between the disturbances of the sixties
and those of recent years.
"Essentially the same type people got

As for the police department's

With federal aid
Greenville police modernize
By Jim Elliot
News Editor
During the decade of the sixties in
spite of the social turbulence that
accompanied that era, the Greenville
police department maintained public
order, protected its officers, and kept the
streets of this city clear of noting mobs
All this was done without the
sophisticated riot training and equipment
they posess today.
An Analysis
On the afternoon of February 11,
1969. a caravan of blacks from Hyde
County marched into Greenville. In
protest against desegregation policies of
that county the group planned to march
to Raleigh. Upon entering Greenville they
were met by a formidable contingent of
riot equipped poiice. Equipment then
consisted of night sticks and military-is-
sue gas grenades and gas masks that
City Manager Harry Hagerty had procured
from Ft. Bragg. A newspaper reoort said
the police temporarily lost control of the
situation but there were no arrests.
On Feb. 12, the group intended to
march toward Farmville on the next leg
of their journey. According to Henry
Lawson, Greenville police chief at the
time, this action would violate a city
ordinance forbidding the blocking of
traffic on public thoroughfares. The
march began anyway and when police
came with buses to haul the
demonstrators to the city limits they sat
down on the road. A photo in the
Raleigh News and Observer showed
police, wearing their hardhats, carrying a
demonstrator to one of the buses. Two
busloads were carried to the city limits.
The march continued. There were no
arrests, no injuries, and tear gas was not
used, according to the newspaper
account of the incident.
Today Greenville police are equipped
with eight riot helmets with protective
face shields, twelve plastic gas bombs
that can be thrown by an officer but
which melt in a few seconds and cannot
be thrown back, one pepper fogger that
sprays a smoke which may or may not
contain an irritant, and a case that
contains a firing device resembling a
straight barreled blunderbuss, and
several tear gas canisters that vary in size
and weight.
All of this equipment was paid for by

grants from the Law Enforcement
Assistance Administration (LEAA). Estab-
lished as part of the Omnibus Crime
Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968,
LEAA also paid for local police agencies
to be instructed in riot control tactics.
Captain Paul Jewett of the Greenville
police has taken a two week, FBI
directed traininq course at UNC Chapel
Hill which was financed by LEAA funds.
He is now certified to teach sessions on
not control. "Each officer in the GPD
takes at least 40 hours of total class and
field instruction in riot control each
year said Capt. Jewett.
The field exercise, held at the
Greenville police dept's pistol range,
instructs officers in various crowd control
techniques as well as training them in
the use of tear aas, according to police
Chief Glenn Cannon
It was LEAA money that bought the
case and tear gas firing device which was
used to break up the crowd in the recent
Halloween night incident in downtown
Greenville, said Cannon.
The U.S. Government Manual quotes
the purpose of the Safe Streets Act: "to
assist State and local government to
reduce crime
Chief Cannon said the LEAA financed
riot equipment for local law enforcement
agencies in response to the demonstra-
tions and violence of the past decade.

Garner,Hunt help out
AlEdwards stars in first Pirate cage victory
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
Team captain Al Edwards hit for a
personal career-high of 24 points to lead
East Carolina University to an 85-82 win
over Davidson in Minges Coliseum
Saturday night.
The win was the first of the year for
the Pirates, who had lost four straight
road games prior to Saturday's home
opener.
Despite the narrow margin of victory,
East Carolina trailed only once in the
game, after jumping to an early 6-2 lead.
East Carolina head coach Dave Patton
said he did not care how the Pirates won,
that he was just happy the win was under
the players' belt.
"I don't care who we beat, how we
beat them or when we won it said
Patton. "It's on the left side of the
column and that's what counts. That first
win is the biggest and now we have it
Patton said having the fans behind
the team for a change, undoubtedly
helped.
"We had the fan support and the
confidence today said Patton, "and
they were the big difference. I think we
could have played our first four
opponents better, if we had a couple of
home games mixed in. But we didn't and
the early beatings at Maryland and State
really got us down.
"We made a lot of stupid mistakes,
but we still won. That's the important
thing, that we can make mistake and
still win
Edwards seemed the most coi dent
of the East Carolina players. The 6-3
senior hit on his first two shots of the
Tame and played suDer throuahout the
game, before fouling out with 2:14
remaining.
Edwards hit for 16 points in the first
half to lead ECU to a 39-37 lead and
picked up scoring help from Earl Garner,
Reggie Lee and Larry Hunt in the second
half to pace the victory.
The Pirates shot 70 per cent in the
second half to stay ahead of the young
Wildcats, and beat the Cats off the
boards, 49-40.
Hunt grabbed 13 rebounds and Garner
added 11 to go with their point totals of
16 (for Hunt) and 21 (for Garner).
For the first time this year, the
Pirates used the fast-break passing
offense to lead to the majority of their
scores. Patton pointed this out in his
post game comments.
"We play a running game said
Patton. "Up until this evening we haven't
been hitting the open man and setting up
the inside shot. Tonight, we were able to
open it up more. We were playing more
like a team than we have all year
And East Carolina's play showed
traces of this. Although he had only six
points, guard Buzzy Braman fed Garner
and Hunt inside several times and
collected seven of the team's 16 assists.
Lee added five assists to his five-for-five
night from the floor. He finished with 10
points.
It was Edwards who stole the show,
though. With his 24 points, 11 -for-17
shooting, two steals and eight rebounds,
Edwards turned in the most complete
performance by a Pirate basketball player
in a long time.
"It was the best team game I think
ECU has played in a long time said
Edwards. "It helped making the first
couple of shots.
"Everything just started clicking and
we just kept playing with poise and
confidence. Everyone worked together.
There were guys passing off instead of
shooting and we know we can win now.
Everybody has got that winning feeling
Actually, the only way the Wildcats
stayed close was by staging a pair of
comebacks at the end of each half, by
virtue of r"ast Carolina (fouls and
turnovers. ECU had 25 turnovers in all,
but outsl.ot Davidson at the free throw
line, 174, for the winning margin.
It was a young Wildcat team that ECU
beat. At most times, the Wildcats were
playing at least four sophomores and
freshmen, and the team's three top
scorers were ail freshmen.
The ECU defense did a good job on
the 'Cats, holding them to 43 per cent
shooting night. John Gerdy, the
conference's leading scorer so far this
year, was five-for-19 from the floor and
ended with just 12 points. Gerdy is a
freshman. Another freshman, Tom
Jorgenson led the Cats with 13 points.
Leading from the opening tap, when
Edwards hit from 15 feet, East Carolina
broke a 20-20 deadlock with a ten point
spurt midway through the half, stayed on.
top by eight most of the half, before
Davidson rallied with a 7-1 stretch to trail
at the half, 39-37.
Davidson made the first two baskets
of the second half to pull in front for the
only time in the game. Edwards and Hunt
then hit for three straight buckets for a
49-43 lead and, after Gerdy tied the score
at 53-53, took the lead for good on a
tip-in by Gamer.
East Carolina was in the one-on-one

minutes of play. This attributed to

�uke kept its lead throughout but
r got beyond the Pirates by more
six points. Hodge maintained his
racy from the inside (he was 6-9 for
lalf) and the remainder of the half
stayed close with Duke's biggest lead at
22-16 at 10:51.
Al Edwards got hot late in the half
and his shooting from the outside and
Hunt's several tip-ins allowed ECU to say
in 'Contention.
After the Pirates closed to within one
with eight seconds remaining, an
Armstrong jumper at the buzzer lifted the
Duke team to its 37-34 advantage at the
end of the half.
Although down only by three, the
Pirates were left outrebounded 20-9 and
left scoreless at the charity line where
they never got a shot.
If the first four minutes of the game
were nearly disasterous for the Pirates,
the opening minutes of the second half
were certainly indicative of the outcome
of the game.
A Duke splurge in the opening
minutes coupled with a series of Pirate
turnovers left ECU outscored 17-2. Hodge
continued his dominance from the inside
and Armstrong began sinking comer
jumpers as the duo connected for all 17
of the Blue Devil points.
Although down by as many as 19
points at 55-36, the Pirates did not fold.

Staff Writer

Fountainhead has chosen offensive
d Jimbo Walker as November's
ete of the Month. Walker has also
?ved a number of other distinguished
Drs this season, includingAssociated
s Honorable Mention ail-American,
Southern Conference, for the second
secutive' year, and nominations for
Jacobs Blocking Award.
Valker is a senior from Atmore,
iama majoring in physical education,
attended Escambdian County high
xl where he played baseball as well
ootball. Walker came to ECU as a
omoreafter attending Marion Institute
larion, Alabama for three semesters,

ests include hunting, fishing, and
Dst all sports.
Vhen asked why he chose ECU,
er commented ell. they played

impressed me. The people seemed

Valker commented on being chosen

team. "It's a great honor and I'm
led, but I don't think I deserved it
-le didn't seem indignant about
ooscunty linemen face. "You know
your not going to get publicity but
fun seeing other people get it. You
take pride in doing a good job and

though flattered at the honors
owed on himself, Walker commented

it get it.
A lot of people were left out of

Coach of the Year. We played a hard
xlule and he really brought us

ignition either. He should have been

Jimbo Walker
Concerning the season as a whole,
Walker commented, "We had a pretty
good year. We were messing up at the
first, but into the season we got it all
together.
"Late in the year we could have played
with anybody. Coach Kupec did a great
job with the line. He taught us technique
and made us want to play well for him.
People are starting to believe in coach
Dye. No one says that's not the way
Sonny Handle would have done it
anymore. People are getting into the Pat
Dye way of football
When asked about next season's team
Walker commented, "Next year, look out.
Almost everybody will be back and
they're going to be hard to live with
Walker also added that he thought
ECU had the ability to play football in the
Atlantic Coast Conference.
Walker will return to East Carolina
next year for two quarters, but will be
ineligible to play football. He said he
had not entertained any serious thoughts
about a professional career. "I'm too small
and tooslow
midway through the half. With Garner
leading, ECU closed the gap to ten with
six minutes left in the game. Duke then
began to slow play with the score still at
75-65.
The offensive effort came to a halt,
however, with just over fou. minutes to
be played in the game when foul trouble
and a taller Duke team proved to be too
much. When Larry Hunt picked up his
fifth personal foul with 4:15 left, the
Pirates lost much of their height and
leading rebounder.
Duke quickly took advantage and
rushed to an 89-72 margin before the
subs took over with 1 :30 remaining in
the game.
Hodge and Armstrong led the Blue
Devil team, combining for 57 points and
19 of their 45 total rebounds. Earl Garner
led the Pirate scoring with 22 points.

practices a day, one at 6:45 and one at
3:15. The team swims 10,000 laps and
works with weights daily commented
coach Ray Scharf.
Coach Scharf said he was pleased
with the team's performance so far this
year.
"The ten day lay-off at Thanksgiving
hurt, but it did no permanent damage. I
am pleased with the attitude of the
team.We have a lot of people working
hard that are going to break into the
lineup; Tom McKenna, Barry McCarthy
and freshman David Moodie, Joe Kushy,
and John Pero to name a few
"David Kirkman, Ross Bohlken, and
Keith Wade are way ahead of their last
year's times. Our 400 yard Relay time is
three and a half seconds faster than last
year's. The whole team helps give us
strength and depth
The fact the Pirates do not have a
full-time, paid diving coach has had a
detrimental effect. Scharf commented on
this deficiency.
"Diving is an entirely different sport
than swimming. Since we lost our coach
we've been weak in diving. In order to be
competitive we need diving. Jack Morrow
has been voluntarily helping with the
divers but he is working and finishing
school all at the same time Scharf
stated the reason ECU does not have a
diving coach is due to "administrative
procedure
There seems to be little doubt about
the Pirates capturing the conference title
this season, as they have done for the
last nine, but according to Scharf, the
conference is getting more competitive.
"The Southern Conference is getting a
lot better. Richmono is stronger and the
conference meet will be at home for
them. Furman picked up a lot of good
prospects from Florida. Other teams are
beginning to close the gap
As is the tradition, the team will
spend eight days in Florida for workouts
during the Christmas break. This
season's team promises to uphold the
fine heritage ECU swimming teams have
earned in the past.

Wrestlers, 1-2, in tourney
By SAM ROGERS
Staff Writer
Despite two losses in last weekend's
quadrangle meet to nationally ranked
Lehigh and Oregon State, the East
Carolina wrestling team certainly proved
they can wrestle with the top teams in
ihe country.
Friday night, in the first of the three
dual meets, seventh-ranked Oregon State
topped the Pirates, 30-15, and Saturday
afternoon fifth-ranked Lehigh downed
East Carolina 26-13. East Carolina came
back Saturday to pick up a 30-16 victory
over Indiana State.
"I thought we really did an
outstanding job said Pirate head coach
John Welborn. "If we had gotten a couple
of breaks in our match against Oregon
State we could have taken them and I
thought we could have just as easily
knocked off Lehigh with a little luck.
Nevertheless, I'm just proud we went up
there and gave those teams a run for
their money
Once again the Pirates displayed
tremendous strength in the upper weight
classes with Phil Mueller, Ron
Whitcomb, and Mike Radford leading the
way Mueller won all three of his
matches and uppped his overall record
this season to 13-2. Whitcomb picked up
two win and a forfeit and still remains
undefeated with a 14-0 mark.
Radford took victories against Oregon
State's Larry Haberlach, 10-4, and pinned
Steve Friend of Indiana State. He almost
pulled the upset of the year in his match
against Lehigh's Mike Lieberman.
Lieberman, the defending NCAA cham-
pion at 177, went down to the wire before
finally escaping with a 4-3 decision over
Radford.
Paul Thorp pinned Ed Ferraro of
Indiana State and lose a narrow 8-7
decision to Armin Daihinger of Lehigh.
Thorp was most impressive Friday
night when he nearly pulled off another
upset over Bob Ziebart of Oregon State,
battling him to a 7-7 draw. Zirbart placed
fifth in the nation last year at 150.
Paul Osmmand was the victim of a
disputed disqualification call against
Oregon State's Joe Killel, but still
managed to top Lehigh's Bob Sloan,
17-10, before losing to Indiana State's
Steve Barkman, 8-6.
"I really couldn't understand the
referee's call which disqualified Osmand
and then Tom Marriott got sick Friday
night which hurt us in the lower weight
classes said Welborn. "We did get
outstanding effort from Phil Mueller, Ron
Whitcomb, Paul Thorp, and Mike
Radford
East Carolina swings back into action

-Men's Intramural Program-
35 Men's Intramural Bowling team rosters were submitted to the Intramural Of
by 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, December 11. Competition will begin on Monc
December 15 at MendenhaJI Student Center Bowling Lanes.
All matches will be held from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. on Monday through Thursday ;
6:30 to 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Scheduling is now comple
and managers should check with the Intramural Office for match times.
As expected Men's Intramural Basketball competition began last Monday ni
with some very interesting performances. The well prepared team or individual
indeed a rare sight during the first week of competition as the conglomerate
red-faced, out-of-breath, semi-retired athletes trudged up and down the court
search of that illusive thing called glory.
Among the more noteworthy performances was the team performance
Aerosmith of the Residence Hall Division in turning the week's high score of I
points against the Aycock Bouncers. The Belk Bucks also had a very fine performaf
as they scored 76 points against the Aycock Jocks and rolled to the widest margir
victory (76-30) during the first week of play.
Outstanding individual performances were turned in by E. Dryden of
Revolutionary Bucks with 25 points in a single game, to take this week's individ
scoring honors, Steve Stroud of the Slay Slacks with 24 points, and Scott Miller �
the Average White Band with 19 points. '
In contrast to the oustanding individual and team performances mentioned abcr
there were some rather 'forgettable' performances also. For instance, the Kaf
Sigma Cheap Thrills tried very hard to go scoreless in their first game but coulc
quite pull it off as they scored their first points of the game with less than th
minutes left on the clock and went out in a blaze of glory to finish the game witl
total of 8 points.
In other action, AFROTC's Ron's Raiders tangled with the Simper Fidelis Marir
and, after nine minutes of spending more time on their (expletive deleted)'s than
their feet, the score was 3-2 in favor of Ron's Raiders. In the end, after the smoke
battle had cleared, Ron's Raiders walked off with the victory.
-Intramural Update-
The weekly Intramural Update is distributed by the Intramural Office and of
more in depth information and coverage about Intramural events, dates,
perforrmances. The newsletter is distributed to the lobby of each Residence Hall
to the Croatan, Wright Soda-Shop, and Mendenhall Student Center. Pick up a c

True Or Not:
Faculty Vote Raises Questions
A recent report by WITN Sports Director Dick Jones on his show Friday evening
id East Carolina's Faculty Committee for Athletics had voted for East Carolina's
thdrawal from the Southern Conference, unless the conference shows improvement.
Of course, ECU Chancellor Leo Jenkins denied that this vote had taken place,
King the rumor "untrue"
However, this writer after viewing Jenkins in conference with Jones on Saturday
ght at the basketball game, believes the report to be true, especially since Jenkins
is denied it.
The importance of such a move by the Faculty Committee is hard to judge. First,
noted by Jenkins, the committee acts more in an advisory position to the
lancellor than it does a policy-making body. For this reason, the vote may simply
s a token expression.
On the other hand, if the reports are true, it would mark the first time that a
impus faculty or non-student organization has come out in favor of such a move.
ie move has been discussed for some time, but no action has even been taken on
e issue. Now, it seems the Faculty Committee, which is chaired by Clifton Moore,
is done this.
As for the position this writer holds concerning East Carolina leaving the
inference, I am split. If the idea is for the school to join the Atlantic Coast
inference, then maybe the parties involved should reconsider, for the ACC is still a
r-away goal for East Carolina.
That would leave only two more routes for the school to follow. The first would
j to go on an independent basis and the second would be for the Pirate athletic
ams to get involved with some other schools in a brand new conference.
There has been talk that Richmond, which leaves the conference as of June 1, is
tempting to form a new conference and that ECU has been included in such plans.
The current word from the conference meetings last week are that the application
Western Carolina, as well as other schools, would be considered at the May
eeting of the conference Athletic Directors and officials.
To let Western Carolina in the conference, or any of the other teams which have
jen mentioned, would certainly degrade the conference and raise the question as to
lere the conference was going. But, it seems inevitable that Western Carolina will
i admitted to the conference sooner or later.
A decision as to ECU'S future, therefore, needs to be made one way or another,
opefully, the Faculty Committee on Athletics has started the ball rolling. That is, if
e rumors which have been circulating are true, and this writer believes they are.
For now, though, East Carolina belongs in the Southern Conference until a
specific plan has been drawn up to outline the plusses and minuses involved in
e matter.
And it is time for the powers-to-be to quit playing politics with East Carolina's
tentions and get the ball rolling.
CHEERING SECTION TO BE STARTED
East Carolina's basketball team returned home Saturday and was able to
ccomplish a feat it failed to accomplish on four road games�that is, to win a game.
And the fans played a major role in the accomplishment of the feat-by virtue of
heir pro-ECU cheers and boisterousness.
The effect was so great that a special student cheering section will be started right
�hind the Pirate bench. This section is for those fans who really want to raise hell
md cheer for the basketball Pirates.
Only those fans who want to raise hell are requested to sit here. Any fan who may
� a bit shy about bolstering hisher opinion should try and sit elsewhere. That is,
he first-string hell-raisers in the lower section behind the bench and all
jecond-stringers to sit in the upper deck. It would be nice if everyone came ready to
aise pure recklessness.
The Pirate team really needs the support of the fans in backing them-as was so
jvident by the way the crowd seemed to pick up the team Saturday.
Come on out to Minges Thursday night and watch the F ates raise hell against
JNC-Wilmington. While you're there, try sitting behind the Pirate bench and raising
some hell yourself.
5 H
The women's basketball team will
hold their Purple-Gold scrimmage
Tuesday night at 7:00 in Minges
Coliseum. The game will be free to the
public.
Track qualifies three for
NCAA National meet
LEXINGTON, VA Operating without
four regulars, the East Carolina indoor
track served notice to its' future
opposition by sweeping a field of seven
in the first meet of the year for the
team.
While Carter Suggs, Maurice Huntley,
Charlie Moss and Mel Duckenfield were
not participating, three other ECU men
qualified for the National NCAA events in
this first meet.
Leading the way was sophomore Larry
Austin, who ran a 6.1 qualifying for the
60-yard dash. The time tied the VMI Field
House record for the event.
Donnie Mack's 6.1 in the semifinals of
the same event also qualified him for the
Nationals, although his 6.2 time in the
finals put him second in that event
behind Austin.
The third NCAA qualifier for ECU was
60-yard high hurdler Marvin Rankins.
Rankins ran a 7.2 in the event, the
second best time in the VMI Field House
record book.
Besides Austin and Rankins, East
Carolina had five other winners. Tom
Watson won the Shot Put, with a toss of
51-7; George Jackson took the long
jump with a performance of 22 feet, 4
inches, Herman Mclntyre won the triple
jump with a total of 49 feet, three
inches; Robert Franklin was the 440
champ with a time of 51.7; Ben
Duckenfield took the 600-yard event at
1:13.6. But East Carolina was shut out in
the pole vault, the mile relay, the 1,000
yard run, the two-mile run and the mile
run. These are all events which Carson
anticipated would be weak areas for the
Pirates.
Several Pirates placed in other events
besides the winning performers. They
were:Watson, second in the 35-pound
weight throw; Mike Harris, second, in
the shot put; Willie Harvey, third, in the
long jump; Curt Dowdy, fourth, in the
long jump; Al McCrimmons, second, in
the high jump; Keith Allamong, third, in
the high jump; Charles Daugherty, fifth,
in the high jump.
Jackson, second, in the triple jump;
Mike Hodge, fourth, in the triple jump;
Kevin Alston, fourth, in the 60-yard
dash; Sam Phillips, second, in the
60-yard high hurdles; James Freeman,
second in the 440; Al Washington,
fourth, in the 440; Bill White, fifth, in the
600; Jim Willett, second, in the 880; and
Jim Green, third, in the 880. The ECU
two-mile relay team placed fifth.
For the meet ECU scored 93 points,
with seven wins. Richmond finished
second with40 12winning four events.
Appalachian won three events for 40
points and third. Virginia won two events
and finished fifth with "35 1 2 . behind
host VMI's 39 points. Madison and
Bridgewater rounded out the field of
seven teams.
