Dorm system labeled unfair
Student input in contract system
passes
By DENNIS C. LEONARD
Assistant News Editor
The Student Government Association
Legislature recently passed a resolution
that calls for student input into the
present dorm contract system. The
contract that was implemented last fall
requires that all students with 96 hours
or less and are freshmen or sophomores
must live in the dorms. This contract
policy does not allow for legal redress by
the students, nor does it guarantee a
student a specific room.
The dorm contract resolution states
that if students are required to reside in
the dorms, they should have at least
some bargaining power when the
contracts are drawn up.
"Last year's students were required to
sign with no student input into the
contracts stated SGA Legislator Ray
Hudson, who introduced the resolution.
"Our aim is to get more input into the
contract system
"Students are in double jeopardy, if
you come to school you have to live in
the dorms, if you don't live in the dorms
you can't come to school said Ricky
rjrice, Speaker of the legislature.
"We feel that it (the dorm contract
system) has been given careful student
consideration and we have had a three
percent occupancy increase over last
year said Dan Wooten, ECU housing
Honeycutt sets
future priorities
By BARBARA MATHEWS
Staff Writer
Updating the SGA constitution
among the top priorities now facing the
student legislature, according to SGA
president Jimmy Honeycutt.
Our SGA constitution is outdated in
some respects said Honeycutt.
" think a yearly budget should be
prepared for the SG and all clubs so that
organizations that need money will know
at the beginning what is available.
"Also, I feel the size of the legislature
is in some ways ineffective. The
composition of the legislature may need
to be changed to provide fairer
representation
Honeycutt said a constitutional
committee has been formed to look into
these matters. A referendum on
constitutional changes may be held
sometime this year, as well as public
hearings on various provisions.
Honeycutt said a study on dorm living
is also in the works for the upcoming
months.
'We will form a committee this week
to look into dorm living he said.
"We want to get an objective view on
dorm life. If legitimate complaints are
brought to the attention of the Board of
Trustees, they will respond.
"Our goal is to make dorm living more
attractive, since students are forced by
the dorm contracts to live in the dorms
during their freshman and sophomore
years Perhaps the MRC and WRC could
use their money more effectively towards
this end
In addition, Honeycutt said plans are
being made towards the printing of a
student directory by Carolina Telephone
& Telegraph Co.
"We felt students were being
discriminated against by not having a
student directory and being charged for
directory assistance calls he said.
Honeycutt said he has talked to the
district manager and manager for CT&T
about the idea.
"Thev were very receptive he said.
"We thinK something may come of it,
perhaps a student directory to be printed
by CT&T in October
Other plans being considered by the
Honeycutt administration include ex-
pansion of the present transportation
system, the printing of a pamphlet on
off-campus living, and the lowering of
textbook prices.
"What we are trying to do is supplyas
many student services as possible said
Honeycutt.
"This year, too much time has been
spent on internal problems within the
executive branch.
"However, we have been fortunate
that the executive and legislative
branches have been able to work together
well.
"The legislature should be compli-
mented-it has done an excellent job

director. "This increase in occupancy
amounts to $15,000 to $20,000 annually
and in effect allows us to maintain a low,
reasonable rent for students. The
contract allows us to take care of more
students in a nine month period,
maintain a lower rent, and most
apartments off campus require a nine to
twelve month lease anyway.
"The contract was originally drawn up
and given careful consideration by the
Housing Office and the Business Office.
The contract was then passed to Dr.
David Stephens (ECU Attorney) for
review, next, to the Attorney General's
office, and was finally approved by the
Board of Trustees.
"There have been very few problems
with the contract this year and I feel the
contract was drawn up specifically for
the protection of the student
Dr. Donald Copeland, Board of
Trustee member who recently stayed in
the dorms overnight, feels that "the
contract has to be done to offer housing
at a reasonable rate. If any problem
arises, I would like to add that the Board
of Trustees will be very willing to listen
to the problems any student may
encounter at school
The resolution soon will be presented
to the Housing Authority via the SGA
Legislature and the Inter-Fraternity
Council.

OSR debate continues
By TOM TOZER
Managing Editor
Recent allegations that the Organi-
zation of Students' Rights (OSR)
constitution was hurriedly passed by the
Rules and Judiciary Committee of the
SGA is a distortion, according to Tim
Sullivan, Special Assistant to SGA
President, Jimmy Honeycutt.
In a telephone interview, Sullivan,
author of the OSR constitution, said the
reasoning behind the passage of the OSR
constitution by the Rules and Judiciary
Committee on Monday was to allow the
SGA to vote on the matter in their
meeting that same night.
"Unless their constitution was
approved by the SGA, the OSR could not
have held their meeting with Attorney
Jerry Paul in Mendenhall Student
Center said Sullivan.
The OSR held a meeting with Paul on
Tuesday, the day after their constitution
was approved by the SGA.
According to Sullivan, the allegation
that Paul is co-chairman of the OSR,
forbidden by the SGA constitution, is
mmm
completely untrue. Only individuals
associated with ECU are allowed to be
members of a student association.
"Ernie Wruck is chairman of OSR and
Russ Womble is co-chairman said
Sullivan.
Six of the 10 members of the SGA
Rules and Judiciary Committee are
required to have a quorum to do
business. The committee vote to approve
the OSR constitution was five to one.
"I did not feel that the OSR
constitution was pushed throuqh out
committee said Karen Harloe, Rules
and Judiciary member. "There was plenty
of time for negative debate
"It was strongly suggested by Ricky
Price that the OSR constitution be
passed quickly said Susan Young,
another committee member. "Price said
the rooms in Mendenhall must be made
available for the OSR.
"It is not unusual for members of the
Rules and Judiciary Committee to change
a club's constitution during debate so it
will pass said Young. "This is a stan-
dard procedure "

City-SG A should co-operate on transit plan
The Greenville Public Transportation Commission has
accepted a transportation study that would provide public transit
for a large portion of the city. Acceptance by the Commission
should be the first step towards establishing some type of
city-wide public transportation system.
Several other Eastern North Carolina cities have public
transit systems and one is needed in Greenville.
If the city initiates such a system that would mean there
would be two mass transit systems operating in a community
the size of Greenville. The one that the city would operate and
the one that has been in operation for several years at ECU
under the auspices of the Student Government Association.
While the city no doubt is aiming its transit system at an
entirely different population than the transit system at ECU
serves, there would have to be at least some common ground
that both- systems share, some areas at least where the two
systems can work together and avoid duplicity.
The best bet for all concerned would be a single system in
which both the SGA and city work together to form one
transit system that would meet the needs of both the
community and students.
But, the chances of such a total joint operation would appear
to be slim and none. Reaction by the city council to the
Halloween incident should indicate to most that the city is not
that illing to work with and cooperate with the student body.
C 3 system could cover the campus and the community
routes that were proposed by the Transportation Commission
much more efficiently, providing services to a greater number of
students and Greenville citizens for probably much less money
than it will cost to operate a dual campus-city system.
If a total merger of the ECU system and the proposed city
system is out of the question, as it apparently is, there still
must be some common ground on which both the city and the
SGA can work.
SGA Transit Manager Gregg Davis has proposed that the city
system should allow students to ride free anywhere the service
extends. The proposed system, while not crossing the campus,
would run close enough to the campus to allow some students
easier access from apartments and other residential areas to the
campus.
It is doubtful that the city would be willing to accept a
proposal to allow students to ride free. But, perhaps the SGA
could work out some reciprocal deal with the city allowing
Greenville citizens free access to the ECU system or giving the
city cash in exchange for free student rides.
The ECU system presently covers the campus and several
apartment complex areas as well as the downtown area and Pitt
Plaza. The proposed city system would skirt Greenville.
Cooperation on scheduling routes between the two could be
CfUDL�$ vJHV 06
YOU )&D UlAJDHS
IN W A CJkJTM ?
beneficial to both the city and the SGA and in just one area
cooperation could help all concerned.
The SGA established the transit system several years ago to
meet a growing need for students to have access to a university
that was expanding beyond the easy walking distances and to
provide students with quick transportation to various parts of
the city, both business and residential areas.
While the ECU system has its flaws, it has served the
students well.
A transit system in Greenville would also serve the citizen
well, providing fast and cheap transportation to various parts of
the city to citizens who in the past have had transportation
problems.
So, the need exists for a system, or systems to meet the
transportation needs of both the community and ECU students.
We just don't think Greenville needs two separate, dual systems
that serve a lot of the same population.
Cooperation on this issue could lead to savings for both the
city and the SGA.
Hopefully the city and the SGA can work together on the
problem to serve the entire community better.
Day of reckoning
After several years of speculation on the subject, it appears
that the question of a Leo Jenkins' candidacy for governor is
coming to a faithful day of reckoning.
Jenkins, who has threatened to run almost as many times as
Harold Stassen, has dropped his own name more than once as a
candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor. With
mandatory retirement nearing for the New Jersey native, many
have speculated that this would be the year that Jenkins, for
many years a key figure in Democratic circles, would make his
bid for public office.
But, first Jenkins contended that he could make no effort
until the UNC Board of Governors changed their "gag rule"
which in the past had prohibited UNC officials from running for
public office until they resigned.
Now, the gag rule has been changed. Officials who seek
public office can now get a leave of absence to pursue their
political ambitions and still come back to their old jobs.
But, even though the rule has been changed, Jenkins
continues to play the "cat and mouse" game concerning his
candidacy. Right now the ECU Chancellor has no comment on
his own candidacy.
Before the UNC ruling several weeks ago, Jenkins, in a
Fountainhead interview, contended that if the UNC rule was
changed he would "take a crack" at the race. Now he backs off
from that statement and explains any decision on his future will
come later. But, then he won't say how much later.
The Chancellor still has several months to make a final
decision. But, at last after speculation that dates as far back as
1968, there is a time limit to Jenkins' "cat and mouse" game.
And, in the near future the ECU Chancellor will either have to
"put up, or shut up
"Ware it left to me to deckle whether we should have a government without
newspapers, or newspapers without government, I should not hesitate a moment o
prefer the latter

i reply to letter by Hicks
Student explains emergency status of bill
To Fountainhead:
We appreciate your letter in the
Fountainhead of January 22nd. It points
out many questions which may be raised
by other students interested in SGA
procedures.
It is important to look first at the
issue which brought about the procedure
presented by Speaker Ricky Price and
Tim SulHvan.The effort to pass a
constitution for the OSR was primarily to
legally recognize the Organization for
Student Rights. This recognition will
enable the use of Mendenhall for
meetings with interested students willing
to seek (ustice for Civil Rights violated
during the Halloween incident. Many
students as well as yourself, Sammy, will
have to agree that a constructive effort to
effectively resolve these continual and
mounting disorders downtown is long
overdue. Needless to say, the action to
pass a constitution for the OSR was
deemed an Emergency Effort. In
conjunction with such important busi-
ness as this, the by-laws of student
legislature Rule 19, Introduction of Bill,
Section A cites:
Every bill shall be introduced in regular
order of business except upon
permission of the Speaker or on report of
the committee.
The Speaker, Mr. Price, allowed the
bill to be introduced prior to the meeting
on Monday and it was submitted to the
Rules and Judiciary Committee, and was
reported favorable. The OSR does comply
with all rules that the SGA requires for a
constitution. These rules are stated in
LB. 5-1, Requirements for Student
Government Recognized Organization.
Hicks letter draws attack
To Fountainhead:
I would just like to clear up a few
references made in S.T. Hicks' letter last
Thursday.
Tim Sullivan, whether appointed, a
sophomore, or a member of Sigma Nu, is
one of the hardest workers I have
observed in the SGA in the past year and
a half. Accomplishments last year
included "Operation Freebird where he
worked months to get unlimited hours for
his constituents the freshmen, and was
voted Best Legislator by the entire
Legislature last year.
This year, Tim has worked just as
hard on many student oriented problems
such as the Halloween incident. He was

The Residence Status Appeals committee

of appeal of the out-of-state classifica-

the fact that I: am a registered voter in

appointed Chairman of the committee
investigating the riot and like everything
else, Tim worked both day and night
talking to students, merchants, and
police trying to get all the facts. He had
enough to compile a large report to be
read by students, City Council and
citizens of Greenville.
In many peoples' opinion, the SGA's
investigation, headed by Tim, led to the
dropping of charges against 46 people
involved in the downtown disturbance.
The SGA was given the credit but the
force behind it was Tim Sullivan and his
committee.
As for reliability of the "Organization
of Student Rights It was organized to
inform students on how to defend
themselves and to better relations
between the university and the city. Tim
helped write the constitution for the
organization according to constitution
regulations so there was nothing shady
about the bill as stated by Mr. Hicks.
Also, the reason Tim was not in the
Rules and Judiciary Committee meeting
reviewing the constitution was because
he was meeting at the time with a
member of the City Council on student
impact in the City Council.
So, Mr. Hicks, it seems to me that
you are exaggerating the KIND of
influence Mr. Sullivan has on the SGA.
He does not use "tentacles" to wrap
around people, he works tirelessly for
the students' benefits and the influence
he holds over them is one of respect and
admiration It is time Tim Sullivan gets
the praise he rightly deserves.

Any students having an interest in
these procedures may see them in the
Legislative Bill Books, located in office
230 of the SGA Leaislature.
It was pointed out that a
representative for the organization was
not present at the meeting. I apologize
for not being there or having a
representative attend. Ernie Wruck and I,
Russ Womble, were appointed co-
chairmen of the OSR after the
constitution was completed.
It was pointed out that Jerry Paul
might be a co-chairman. Jerry Paul is an
attorney of law who is very successful
and professionally more qualified to
represent the students in this case than
any other lawyer we know. He is not a
co-chairman. He is merely going to bat
for us in a court of law so that;
1. affected students in the riot may be
represented in a legal procedure,
2. the true factors of the riot are aired,
3. another Halloween incident is forever
eliminated.
I sincerely hope that this clarifies any
suspicions that may have evolved during
the course of the effort to pass the OSR
constitution and to point out that the
main issue involved was to set up, as
quickly as possible, an organization to
culminate the interests of students who
were involved in the Halloween incident
in a consolidated effort to preserve
Human Rights.

Bond referendum listed for March 23
Jenkins asks for bond support
East Carolina University Chancellor
Leo W. Jenkins called Saturday for
"vigorous support" of a proposed $43.3
million state bond issue for needed
improvements in North Carolina's higher
educational system.
The bond issue to be submitted to the
voters in a March 23 referendum was
authorized by the 1975 General Assembly
in lieu of capital improvements
appropriations on 13 of the 16 campuses
in the University of North Carolina
system.
If approved, the bond issue would
provide funds for capital improvement
projects on 13 campuses within the
University of North Carolina system.
Three remaining campuses received
separate appropriations during 1974 and
1975.
Jenkins, in welcoming remarks to the
N.C. Women's Political Caucus conven-
ing on the ECU campus, said the bond
issue proposal was a "feasible,
financially sound approach" to meeting
needs without tax increases. He said the
bond money would be "of sufficient
benefit" to the entire higher educational
system, not just to particular campuses.
The ECU chancellor congratulated the
Steering committee
selected by Jenkins
Chancellor Leo W. Jenkins has
appointed a 20 member steering
committee to spearhead the ECU
campaign in support of a $43.3 million
state bond issue to finance capital
improvements for most state-supported
higher education institutions.
The educational bond issue proposal
will be on the ballot March 23. Its
passage has been advocated by
numerous state leaders including State
Treasurer Edwin Gill and legislative
leaders such as Rep. Jimmy Love of
Sanford and Sen. Ralph Scott of Haw
River.
Jenkins named his assistant, Col.
C.R. Blake, as coordinator of the ECU
Steering Committee for the bond issue.
Other members of the steering
committee are Dr. C.Q. Brown, ECU
director of Institutional Development; J.
Curtis Hendrix, Vice President and
Branch Manager, First State Bank,
Greenville; Dr. Lloyd W. Benjamin, ECU
School of Art; Dr. Edwin W. Monroe,
Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs;
Donald Y. Leggett, Director of Alumni
Affairs and ECU Foundations; William S.
Shires, Director, ECU News Bureau;
Prof. H. Gus Moeller, professor, School
of Allied Health and Social Professions;
Mike Taylor, editor of The Fountainhead,
ECU Student Newspaper.
Mrs. Janice H. Faulkner, associate
professor, Department of English;
Malcom J. Howard, chairman of the Pitt
County Republican party; Carolyn
Fulghum, associate dean of student
affairs; Henry Oglesby, chairman of the
Pitt County Democratic party; Max Ray
Joyner, Vice President, ECU Alumni
Assn Ashley B. Futrell, ECU trustee,
editor and publisher of the Washington,
N.C. Daily News; William R. Flowers,
mayor of Plymouth, N.C Diane Taylor,
President ECU Student Union; Thomas
W. Willis, Director, ECU Regional
Development Institute.
All state-supported higher education
institutions with the exception of ECU
and the N.C. School of the Arts would
share in proceeds of the proposed capital
improvements bond issue if approved by
the voters.

Carolina tradition of prudence and at the

Animal control poses problem
There are an estimated 80-100 million
cats and dogs in the United States. They
are bom at a rate of 2,000 to 3,500 an
hour.
A Humane Society of the United
States (HSUS) survey stated that 15 to 17
million animals were turned into the
nation's animal shelters in 1973. Of that
number, 13.5 million were put to death!
The pet problem is complicated by
early puberty, frequency of reproduction,
and large litter size. A female dog is able
to breed at six to nine months of age and
comes into heat twice a year. This
usually means a litter of six puppies
every six months.
Animals in urban areas pose a
sanitation and public health problem.
Research has shown that the fecus of the
dog carries worms. These worms scatter
as the fecus dries.
Also, some 1.5 million dog bites are
reported annually, and almost as many
go unreported. Although rabies is no
longer a serious health problem in this
country, some 30,000 people undergo the
rabies series of shots each year.
In a survey conducted by the National
League of cities, the nation's mayors
reported they receive more complaints
about pet problems than anything else.
Several cities have already passed
ordinances requiring pet owners to
remove their pet's waste from public
property. It is increasingly recognized
that pet ownership in urban areas is not
a right, but a privilege (excerpted from a
HSUS brochure).

Business and industrial tech grads sought
By KENNETH CAMPBELL
Assistant News Editor
Business and industrial technology
degrees are increasing in demand,
according to the announcement of
interviews for February, by the East
Carolina University Placement Center.
"Indications now are that industries
are providing more jobs said Fumey K.
James, director. "Business and industrial
technology majors are good ones to have
now. The medical and law degrees are
also good to have since these fields were
not injured by the economic slowdown.
"Industries related to agriculture are
good places to go. These include
financial institutions - banks and loan
associations and industries which make
farm machinery
Last year the placement office
registered 1,200 students and 400 alumni.
A follow-up report by the placement
office indicated that 80 percent of these
persons had gained employment. In
previous years, the office yielded about a
90 percent success rate, according to
James.
Students graduating between now and,
August should register with the
placement center now, said James.
"Because the job market is still tight,
the employer has many good applicants.
This puts more responsibility on the
student. The student must make the
employer aware of his credentials
James explained that if a student is
registered with the placement center,
company representatives visiting the
campus will be made aware of that
student's credentials.
Registering with the center is a
simple matter, according to James.
"Companies are hiring students with
specific vocational training. They are not
hiring the liberal arts person and training
him for a position as much as they used
to do
Brown and James expressed concern
over students' attitudes toward the job
market. Brown cited three criteria
students should consider while looking
for jobs.
"Having a good set of credentials
puts the student in the most favorable
position said Brown. "Students are not
wasting their time in college because the
job market would be tighter if they did
not have a college education.
"Students also must be flexible to
find a good job. Finding a good job is
going to require a great effort on the
students' part.
Rather disturbing to Brown is the
negative attitude of students toward the
job market. Consequently, Brown said
his third criteria for helping students to
find jobs is the students' frame of mind.
"Students must be optimistic about
finding a job said Brown. "Students
must keep themselves in a favorable
attitude so they will know what their
good points are, and can present them to
the employer
"I feel encouraged with the current
economic situation and students should
feel encouraged too. We see glimpses of
hope and we should be optimistic
The students' pessimistic attitude
toward the job market is also disturbing
to James.
"The only things we read about jobs
are pessimistic said James. "We need
to be optimistic now while things are not
good. We are creating a bad outlook on
the job market when we should be
creating a positive outlook instead.
"When a student registers with us, he
completes a set of credentials which
includes a resume and references from
professors said James. "References will
also be accepted from any other
administrative personnel who know the
student well enough to evaluate him.
"The student is then put on a mailing
list. While on the mailing list he receives
information concerning the employers
who are on campus interviewing.
Students are also kept informed of the
job opportunities available
However, the placement office is not
always successful in obtaining the
particular job a person wants, James
continued. These jobs are not always
available.
The unavailability of jobs 1s
sometimes caused by an excess of
people with particular job training. Last
year the placement office had an over
supply of childhood education teachers.
Generally, there were too many teachers
in most areas, according to James.
"Surprisingly, there was an ex-
ceptional need for special education and
mathematics teachers said James.
"Teachers with vocational training were
also in great demand.
"The people who are really in demand
are females. Females are getting
excellent jobs in insurance companies,
banking, and merchandising said
James.
Besides over supply, another factor
negatively affecting the job market is the
change in hiring practices of industrial
companies.
"In general, the economic situation
has caused people and companies to be
more conservative in economics said
Charles Q. Brown, director of the ECU
Institutional Development Center.
Honor fratmaygo social, avoid Title IXrules
By DIANE TAYLOR
Staff Writer
Phi Sigma Pi, the national honor
fraternity for men, is considering
becoming social rather than admit
women.
According to the new Title IX
regulations, no university organization
may discriminate by sex. Social
fraternities, however, are exempt from
this law.
Unless the ECU chapter of Phi Sigma
Pi ceases to become a university
recognized organization or simply
dissolves itself.it must open membership
to women or become a social fraternity.
"The first two possibilities have been
ruled out said Dr. Richard C. Todd,
advisor. "But the boys are split about
50-50 about the last two
A decision will be reached at the
February 4 business meeting of the
fraternity, according to Todd. At that
time, he said, recommendations for
changes in their character will be sent to
the national office.
Final decisions to amend the
constitution will be made by the national
executive council and sent down to
chapter fraternities for ratification, said
Todd.

Stephenson heads project
Pamlico flow studied
By TERRY DANIELS
Staff Writer
A harmless fluorescent dye is being
used to measure the water flow from
Bath and Durham Creeks into the
Pamlico River.
The Institute for Coastal and Marine
Resources in June granted $3,350 to Dr.
Richard A. Stephenson, director of the
institute, and Carl Bailey, ECU graduate
research assistant, to study the water
flow from the creeks.
According to Stephenson, the
research will determine the creeks' flow
of water, the speed with which they
absorb pollutants, and the amount of
fresh water flowing from them into the
Pamlico River.
Bath Creek is north of the Pamlico
River about 15 miles east of Washington,
N.C. Durham Creek is across from Bath
Creek, near the Texas-Gulf phosphate
mining operations.
Bailey said the flow of water will be
measured by placing a small quantity of
fluorescent dye upstream in the creeks.
Samples will be taken at different times
and locations in the creeks. The samples
will then be put in a fluroscope at ECU'S
biology labs to determine the amount of
fluorescent dye. From the samples, the
flow rate will be determined.
According to Bailey, the flow rate of
fresh water from the creeks affects the
salt content of the Pamlico River. This
content in turn affects the number of salt
water fish in the river. The Pamlico River
contains salt upriver past Washington,
according to Bailey.
There is no water from Texas-Gulf
being dumped into Bath or Durham
Creeks, but pollutants do drain from
surrounding farm land, said Bailey.
Knowing the flow rate, the amount of
pollution absorbed can also be
determined.
"The reason the ECU Institute for
Coastal and Mff-ine Resources is
concerned with the Pamlico River is
because it is close at hand and affects
the local people said Bailey.
ECU has a research center on the
Pamlico River and does all the marine
research for Texas-Gulf. Research in the
Pamlico shows little pollution. Bailey
said the low pollution levels are partially
due to the small amount of development
along the river.
$25,000 reported destroyed
Fire causes damage
to area nursery
By LARRY 2CHERMAN
Staff Writer
Causing approximately $25,000 dam-
age, a fire of undetermined origin hit
Little's Nursery three miles west of
Greenville on Highway 264 last Thursday
afternoon.
The fire destroyed a small green-
house, a corn bin, and the office and
storage area for the firm. The fire was
spotted by owner Clarence Little, and the
first alarm for the Red Oak Volunteer Fire
Dept. was sounded at 12:04 p.m. A
second alarm for Bell Arthur Fire Dept.
was sounded three minutes later.
Fire units arriving on the scene saw
that they could not handle the fire, and
Winterville Volunteer Fire Depts alarm
was sounded at 12:12 p.m followed by
Farmvilie's at 12:21.
According to Pitt County Fire
Marshall Bobby Joyner's office, small
quantities of fertilizers, herbicides, and
pesticides were involved in the fire. A
check with chemical information sources
nvealed that only one chemical, the
herbicide Cloradane, was potentially
lethal to firefighters.
Jimmy Stocks, of the Pitt County
Health Department's Environmental
Health division noted that while the
cloradane posed no real threat to
firefighters as most of the bottles had
not ruptured, most of the fertilizers had
become contaminated with it and other
chemicals spilled. He noted that all
affected fertilizers would either be spread
over a large unused field for absorbtion
or buried on a similar piece of land.
Original estimates as to damage were
put at a minimum of $35,000 by manager
Charles Wainwright. Wainwright added
that although the office and most of its
contents had been destroyed, it was
'fortunate that the firemen were able to
save all of our records" which were kept
in two filing cabinets inside the building.
Heat from the fire was so intense that
it caused metal siding on the Little's
residence, some 200 feet away, to warp
rather severely in places. Firemen
remained at the scene for over three
hours. In all, six fire units from four
departments were used, with over fifty
firemen at the scene at certain times.

Program enrolls 147 students this year
Studies Program assists students
By BOB WATSON
Staff Writer
Last year ECU began a Special
Studies Program for students who did
not meet regular admission requirements.
This year there are 147 students
participating in that program.
The program is designed to provide
these students with a one year college
curriculum of intensive assistance by
faculty and student tutors in the
improvement of reading and study skills
while they are enrolled in college level
courses for college credit.
Students who would not have been
accepted at ECU under regular admission
requirements are eligible for thi?
program. The program was created to
allow marginally inadmissable applicants
to enter the university and to assist them
through their first year.
Marginally inadmissable applicants
are those who have received scores on
the SAT or high school grades which fall
barely below the regular cut-off points for
admission.
To be eligible for this program an
applicant must also have completed all of
the high school courses required for
regular admission.
The program is administered through
the General College and is financed with
special money resources provided by the
Provost from state funds.
Dr. Wendall Allen, Associate Dean of
the General College, is in charge of the
program.
Allen said that most of the students
admitted into this program have reading
deficiencies and that alleviating these
deficiencies is one of the main goals of
the program.
Participants in the program are
required to take Education 092, a
non-credit remedial reading course. In
this course the students practice their
reading skills on reading assignments
from their history courses, either History
50 or 51.
For this course Drs. William Cobb of
the History Department and Mabel
Laughter of the Education Department
work together to co-ordinate the two
courses in a manner which allows the
students to improve their reading skills
while reading assigned history material.
Allen said that in this course the
emphasis is on improvement in reading
comprehension rather than reading
speed.
There are also special sections of
English 1 and 2 offered in the programs.
These special sections contain only
members of the program. In these
courses the students are given more
individual attention and special tutoring
than they would be in regular classes.
In addition, there are courses in the
Biology and Mathematics Departments
which are specially co-ordinated to aid
these students.
In all of these special classes the
students complete the same amount of
work of a regular class. But the material
is given in smaller doses and special
tutors are provided for the students.
Students in the program spend a
great deal more time in contact with their
teachers and tutors than do regular
students. During the first quarter, Allen
said they usually take about 12 hours
credit, yet they spend about 23 hours in
classes and with their tutors each week.
The students admitted into this
program are required to remain at least
through their first quarter, Allen
explained. But after that they are allowed
to leave the program and become regular
students according to their ability and
rate of improvement.
Allen said that this year's group is
progressing better than last year's
group. He attributes this to the different
methods of selection that were used. He
said that last year the selection process
was not as well defined as it is this year.
Due to this, many of those admitted into
the program lacked sufficient motivation
to do well in college. This year, he
explained, we have not admitted anyone
who ranked out of the top 70 per cent of
their class.
The success of the program is
determined by the rate of retum of its
participants compared to the rate for
regularly admitted freshmen.
Of last year's group 58 per cent of
those admitted returned this year as
regular students. This figure is only
slightly less than the return rate for
regular freshmen which Allen said is
about 60 per cent
Allen said that he will further evaluate
the success of the program by keeping
up with the performance of those
admitted under it as they progress
through college. He said that he will be
provided with information on the average
performance of these students as a
group, and that he will compare this with
the average performance figures of
regularly admitted students.
Allen said that the general opinion of
the program's advisory board, made up of
faculty members from several of the
university departments, is that the
program should be broadened. He also
indicated that there are plans for more
courses to be offered in the Special
Studies Program. He mentioned pos-
sibilities in the Philosophy, Political
Science and Geography Departments.

sides he said. "Some chapters have
fraternity houses and others are in the
process of getting them. This makes it
difficult to admit women.
"On the other hand Todd said,
"many men do not want to drop the
honor part and become a social fraternity
which merely stresses our qualities of
high academic standards, leadership and
fraternal fellowship
Ed Harper, a Greenville attorney and
alumni of Phi Sigma Pi, recommenced to
the members in a meeting last week, that
they poll all their alumni for help in
making a decision. Todd said letters had
been written.
"But even after we determine what we
want to do, we don't know what the
national council will decide said Todd.
"All we can do is make suggestions
Todd said he would rather see the
fraternity admit women than become
social.
"It is unfortunate that there is no
comparable program for women here. But
since there isn't it's too bad the women
have to miss out on all this he said.
Realizing that such a law was
forthcoming, the chapter had its charter
rewritten three years ago to exclude any
mention of sex, said Todd. However,
according to Title IX, admittance must be
open to men and women alike.

Alcoholism Awareness Week January25-31
Nelson to direct state session
a
Dr. Philip G Nelson, associate
clinical professor of psychiatry at ECU,
will direct a session at a meeting in
Charlotte during the state's Alcoholism
Awareness Week, Jan. 25-31.
The program will include reports on
medical and scientific aspects of
alcoholism and is sponsored by the N.C.
Alcoholism Research Authority and by
several state agencies and professional
organizations.
Dr Nelson will chair the Wednesday
afternoon session at the Charlotte
conference, which will concentrate on the
search for the sources of alcoholism
The session will consist of
presentations by Dr. Sharon C. Wi I snack,
director of the Bloomington, Ind.
Regional Alcoholism Rehabilitation Pro-
gram, on the psychological aspects of
alcoholism, and Dr. Dwight B. Heath of
Brown University, on its anthropological
aspects.
Dr. Nelson is vice chairman of the
Alcoholism Research Authority, which
was created by the General Assembly in
1973 to coordinate and support research
in the field. Dr. Sam Pennington of the
ECU medical faculty has been an active
researcher in projects funded by the
ARA
The Jan. 25 television program.
"North Carolina People broadcast each
Sunday at 6 p.m. by the UNC
Educational TV Network, will feature
appearances by UNC President William
Friday; Dr. John A. Ewing, UNC
professor of psychiatry and executive
secretary of the Alcoholism Research
Authority; Dr. A.M. Witherspoon, ARA
member and N.C. State University
professor, and Dr. Nelson.
Noting the importance of Alcohol
Awareness Week, Dr. Nelson reported
that North Carolina's current population
includes at least 100,000 alcoholics, each
affecting other family members, neigh-
bors, fellow workers, and health care and
law enforcement personnel.
He quoted a current federal
government report which set the indirect
cost of alcoholism in North Carolina
alone at approximately $634,43 000 each
year.
In addition, he said, the current
annual alcoholism budget of the N.C.
Division of Mental Health is about $10
million.
"Treatment programs, important as
they are, tend to focus on the casualties
of alcoholism-those whose illness is
manifest and chronic he said.
Alcoholism Awareness Week is being
sponsored to focus additionally on the
biomedical and psychosocial research
which can eventually lead to prevention

election to the leading national office.
In addition to her work with the
Women's Political Caucus, she serves on
a number of national and local boards
and was recently appointed by President
Ford to the National Commission on the
Observance of International Women's
Year and directs the IWY committee on
Child Development.
Librarians
to hold
meeting
Two members of the faculty in the
ECU Department of Library Science are in
Chicago this week attending the
Midwinter meeting of the American
Library Association. Representatives from
libraries and library education programs
from the fifty states as well as several
foreign countries are participating in
some of over six hundred committee
meetings involving the library profession
at the national level. Conference
participants are also viewing exhibits by
book publishers, nonprint producers, and
library furniture and equipment manu-
facturers from around the country.
Representing the Department of Library
Science are Dr. Gene D. Lanier, chairman
and professor, and Dr Benjamin Guise,
associate professor. Dr. Lanier is also
attending the annual meeting of the
Association of Ameriran Library Schools
which coincides with the other meeting.
Among the items on the agenda is the
formal formation of a Council of Deans
and Directors within the parent
organization. Dr Frank Newman,
President of the University of Rhode
Island is the keynote speaker on the
theme, "Trends in Professional Edu-
cation
A professional reading specialist, Ms.
Colom has developed and directed

D.C. Children's Defense Fund.
The state caucus meeting included
workshops, election of new officers and
meetings with political candidates at the
state and local level.
On Friday, Jan. 23, Caucus members
were hosted by ECU Chancellor Leo
Jenkins at an informal fund-raising party
at his home.
A non-partisan organization, the
Women's Political Caucus attempts to
promote greater participation by women
in political processes and in government,
by encouraging qualified women to run
for elective office, by raising women's
issues in political campaigns, by
pressing for more appointments of
women to policy-making positions, and
by working for legislation to end
discrimination against women.
The Greenville convention was
coordinated by the ECU Division of
Continuing Education.

Would you believe
Fire drills, features editors
and other natural disasters
By PAT COYLE
Features Editor
The past week or so has given campus dwellers a taste of disaster movies, ECU
style?
Greenvillians woke up Saturday, January 17, to find the city had become a winter
wonderland. On closer examination, one found that the white stuff was indeed snow,
rather than the psoriasis of the gods.
The "blizzard" lasted for at least four hours, and managed to complete the nearly
impossible task of transforming a usually reticent, uninvolved populus into raving,
snowball-hurling maniacs.
Anyone foolhardy enough to venture near the mall found themselves in the line of
fire as fraternity attacked fraternity. Sorority ladies, decked out in true snow-bunny
fashion found themselves easy prey for the crazed warriors.
There was even short-lived speculation about the possibility of Monday class
cancellations.
LET THERE BE LIGHT
Little did the unsuspecting speculator realize that if classes had been cancelled
Monday, it would have been due to lack of power, rather than presence of snow.
Bleary eyed teachers and students noticed something was amiss at about 8:30.
Initial reactions ranged from the fear that one was going blind to the belief that the
day of reckoning had finally arrived.
Whatever the general, impression, it soon became obvious that the lighting and
heating were definitely not working.
Many benevolent and practical profs closed up shop for the duration of the power
failure.
Displaced, hung over students headed for the security of coffee and conversation
at the soda shop. Those who made it through the pitch black hallway without being
mugged found the coffee sold out, along with the patience of hearty soda jerks.
It was really fun though, in spite of the mass confusion. Industrious students
played post-office and sardines in the darkness, while professors settled deeper into
their coats and made bets on the time the power would return.
The power did return-about three hours later, and all was well with the possible
exception that the clocks and bells ran incorrectly for the rest of the week.
FIRE!
The final disaster of the week occurred Sunday, but its effects were felt
exclusively by White Dorm residents.
A couple of busy-fingered drunks set off a fire alarm on eighth floor, presumably
for the unequalled thrill of ruining the last few minutes of the Carolina-Maryland game
for those watching, and possibly so they could watch girls stand around in skimpy
robes.
We assumed at first that it was just another fire drill until the two fire engines
squealed in. Some of us began wondering if a burnt book would be a viable excuse
for absence from a French midterm, while others lamented the possible loss of items
ranging from Frank Zappa records to contraceptive pills and devices.
The only thing lost was a good half-hour of Sunday afternoon leisure time.
Hopefully, the people responsible for the fun and games will be banned from the
eighth floor, in addition to losing their feelings of maturity and self-respect.
THE LATE GREAT J.D.
Speaking of disasters, the one caused by the departure of Jim Dodson from the
hallowed halls of the Fountainhead has reached the two month mark.
Taking Dob's place, or trying to, has been the biggest challenge of my life, even
more difficult than trying to organize the ECU chapter of the Richard M. Nixon fan
club.
Even if I were to possess blond hair and that winning smile I could never hope to
possess the rapier-wit that made Dob what he is today.(?)
Jim, may you rest in peace out there. Avoid wild parties, and realize that those of
us left behind now realize what you've known all along; it isn't easy being Catherine
Deneuve.
Bloxton House
This house is not a secret
By MARTY CRAWFORD
How many times have you walked by
that strange little house beside Greene
dorm and wondered what in the world it
is? Well, if that is the case, then this
article is for you.
Bloxton House was erected in 1909
and was used as the college infirmary
until 1932. In September of 1935 it was
given to the Home Economics
Department as their Home Management
House. The summer of 1936, repairs were
made, and by 1938 it had been
completely repaired and furnished. The
name Bloxton House comes from
Adelaide Bloxton, a home management
instructor, who lived there. Bloxton
taught at ECU for twenty-two years and
served as the head of the department for
five years. She established the first
management house and was director of it
until her death.
Bloxton House or The Home
Management House is, indeed, a mystery
to most students on campus. If one
ventures inside, he will usually find the
ten girls who inhabit the place. One will
immediately notice the friendly, comfort-
able atmosphere and lovely furnishings.
If the visitor is lucky enough to arrive
around mealtime, he will smell some
good aromas from the kitchen.
This still hasn't given you very many
clues to the real purpose of this house.
Residence in the house is part of a
course requirement for all Home
Economic Education and Institutional
Management majors. The five hour
course is offered twice a quarter during
the fall and winter quarters. Due to the
course's length, the girls must quickly
learn to adapt to each other, in order to
have an efficient and congenial
undertaking.
Bloxton House is divided into two
sections; the House and the Apartment;
with five girls living in each section. The
House section is larger and more formal
than the apartment. It consists of a living
room, dining room, kitchen, three
bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a
television room.
The Apartment is cozy and compact,
consisting of only two bedrooms, a
bathroom, a den and kitchen area.
The two groups live independently of
each other, with individual budgets, but
do join forces for entertainment. For
formal entertainment, the groups
undertake activities such as Christmas
tree trimmings, informal entertainment
always consists of the present group
inviting the next group over for a tour of
the house and an assignment of duties.
In order to fulfill the requirements of
the course, the girts must live within a
budget, keep records and perform duties
including laundry, housekeeping and
cooking.
The girts are in agreement over their
enjoyment of three well-balanced meals a
day, however, one girl said the part of
getting up at 6:30 in the morning to fix it
doesn't thrill her one bit, especially if her
first class is not until twelve.
Aside from three meals a day, the
girls enjoy the convenience of free
washers and dryers and clean surround-
ings. When asked if they considered
themselves equivalent to a sorority, they
said that while more work was involved
during their stay at the house, compared
to a sorority, it was less crowded and
definitely cleaner.
The girls develop a great deal of
responsibility and initiative for solving
personal and group problems, plus ability
to give and accept constructive criticism,
to refine social skills, and to develop
traits and abilities which are important in
living and working with people.
Other things the girls learn in this
course include how to manage resources
effectively and to become a well-informed
consumer.
At the end of the five week period,
the girts evaluate each other and decide
grades on the basis of group
relationships, personal development, the
managerial process, and controlling the
plan in action. The final grade then
comes from their advisor, Diana Carroll.
Mrs. Carroll terms this type of grading as
peer evaluation. She says that it has
worked very effectively in the past.
Mrs. Carroll holds two meetings
weekly with the girls. During this time
they hold discussions, plan activities, set
up goals and resolve personality
conflicts. Since the course is so short,
the girls often find themselves jumping
in and doing, but not with the realization
of why they are doing it. Mrs. Carroll
seems to think that even though this may
be the case, the experience gained is
matchless.
Bloxton House residents are involved
with community resources, and things
going on in the area. Often they have
guest speakers from the campus and
surrounding area; such as the Head
Mechanic from the North Carolina
Department of Motor Vehicles, who came
and talked at ut the maintenance of a
car.
When asked if this course was
beneficial to a specific major, one girl
answered by saying, "Not really, but you
find out in a hurry whether or not you are
qualified
This course is open for anyone with
an interest, according to Mrs. Carroll.
She expressed a desire to see more
non-horne-ec majors interested. "Every-
one needs the experience that is gained
here said Mrs Carroll.

Editors at large
By LYNN CAVERLY
Staff Writer
Having to follow in the footsteps of
Fountainhead's ex-feature editor, Jim
Dodson, would be a tough job for
anybody, but Pat Coyle is learning fast
and learning well.
Pat, a junior, replaced Jim this
quarter and feels that, "I need to get a
little more organized. Jim had confidence
in me that I could learn fast. I had a lot
to learn but everyone here in the office is
willing to help - that is in between the
practical jokes
Pat began working for the Fountain-
head as a staff writer in 74. She is a
French major and journalism minor, and
hopes to some day combine these two
aptitudes in a career that might lead her
to a life In France.

'Reflector'reporter Quinn
discusses journalism
By RICK SKAWINSKI
Miss Susan Quinn, an East Carolina
University graduate, and presently
news-feature reporter for the Greenville
Daily Reflector, recently spoke to a class
of prospective Journalism students here
at East Carolina, on the topic of a
"Career in News Reporting
"Newspaper reporting is an exciting,
ever changing career Miss Quinn
stated, "and it takes a great deal of
energy, aggressiveness, and of course
the basic skills of grammar and spelling"
but added that for today's young
reporters, the emphasis is on these basic
abilities
Miss Quinn also spoke on the
opportunities as well as drawbacks
involved in a reporting career.
"Many times a reporter has to put in a
forty-plus hour week, which includes
night meetings, and work to be taken
home and completed This led Miss
Quinn into the discussion of her own
personal work schedule, which includes
the reviewing of some twenty newspapers
each morning, and the editing and layout
of the "T.V. Showcase" which she is
editor of.
As for fringe benefits, Miss Quinn
joked that in exchange for free concert
tickets, records, books, and ski passes,
she usually writes a related story, even
though there was no original obligation.
"You feel kind of guilty she quipped.
After the discussion, Miss Quinn,
assisted by Mr. Ira L. Baker, of the
Journalism Department, conducted a
question and answer period with the
students.
When asked if any future goals were
planned, Miss Quinn expressed a desire
to write for television or radio news, or a
possible teaching career in Journalism.
These were termed "long range "But for
now she went on, "I'll work and get the
much-needed experience
Prior to coming to the Reflector,
Miss Quinn was Woman's Editor on the
Kinston Free Press.
Stembridge given grant
for sand dune research
By KURT HICKMAN
Dr. James Stembridge, visiting
professor of geography at ECU received a
$700 grant in November from the Institute
of Coastal and Marine Resources for
research on sand dunes.
Stembridge will study sand dune
growth and its relation to vegetation.
The North Carolina coast, including
the Pamlico estuary and the outer banks
from Cape Hatteras to Cape Lookout, will
be the eventual area of study, said
Stembridge.
Stembridge will map dune growth and
record vegetation that is common to the
North Carolina coast.
According to Stembridge, it is
thought that the strongest dunes in
North Carolina are where American beach
grass and sea oats grow. These types of
vegetation force sand to accumulate and
form an excellent base for dunes,
Stembridge said.
This study will be useful in land
development along the coast and for the
prevention of severe hurricane damage,
said Stembridge.
"Most of the resort areas on the coast
are built on poor foundations where
vegetation is uncommon and they are
vulnerable to extreme hurricane damage,
particularly the Boque Banks and Nags
Head said Stembridge. "These resorts
were established in a period in which no
severe storms reached the North Carolina
coatt. North Carolina's last big hurricane
was in 1954
Stembridge's study will determine
where in North Carolina the foundations
are the strongest.
Stembridge is now compiling inform-
ation and will begin field work during
Easter. This work will include aerial
photographs and the study of dune cross
sections and their relation to certain
types of vegetation growth.
Stembridge will begin by studying a
small area of the coast. If his study is
successful, he will apply to the institute
for more funds for extended study.
The institute presented a total of
$4,000 in grants to ECU, said
Stembridge.
Stembridge said several students at
ECU had also applied for grants and
received money for individual study.
Stembridge presently has no students
working with him on his project.
ECU was the only school which
received grants for coastal study from the
institute, Stembridge said.
According to Stembridge, these
grants for coastal study are a part of the
ECU budget from the institute.

'Peeper' is letdown from'Maltese Falcon'
By LAURIE WILSON
Staff Writer
The year is 1947 and the place is Los
Angeles, home of such great movie
detectives as Humphrey Bogart and
George Raft. Leslie Tucker has seen
them ah and now he's doing his best to
keep up the Bogie tradition of being a
great peeper, (or private-eye for those
who don't understand the lingo).
Tucker (Michael Caine) is hired by a
man doomed to be assassinated by the
underworld. He is to find the man's lonr
lost daughter so she can receive he
legacy, a suitcase full of money. Tucl.er's
search takes him to the magn'icent
Prendergast mansion whose strange
occupants include evil Uncle Frank
(Thayer David), a fragile mother, and
"twin" sisters, Mianne and Ellen (Natalie
Wood). The only questions Tucker must
solve now is which one is the lost
daughter, how to keep the money and his
life away from the assassins, and who
the little man is who keeps turning up
everywhere Tucker does. The solving of
these questions finishes out a movie that
is a tongue-in-cheek salute to Hollywood
detective movies of the forties.
Throughout the film, the director,
Peter Hyams, uses many of the same
touches seen in forties' films. Tucker
does his best to be like the detectives he
has Seen in the movies. He is, however,
an Englishman who likes to drink tea and
�I
this gives a different twist to the
customary detective story. But, he is
dedicated to his work and his apparent
seriousness amid the inane confusion
adds to the humor. Uncle Frank can be
recognized as carrying on the tradition of
Sidney Greenstreet as Tucker's clever
opponent. With a cunning smile and
white clothes, he could easily be the Fat
Man as he tries to outwit Tucker. Ellen
does her part in the film as the "bad
girl As the vixen-like heiress, she can
be helpless and kitten-like one minute
and devious and violent the next. The
setting is Los Angeles, a good city in
which to carry on the dangerous nightlife
of a detective. Magnifying glasses,
slouch hats, and vicious dogs are
prevalent, and Tucker keeps the audience
up to date with a side monologue
reminiscent of Bogart's Sam Spade
Hyams also uses a hazy texture on the
film to heighten the sinister effect of
certain scenes and keeps some
background shots that would ordinarily
be in focus out of focus to exaggerate
the importance of the figure in the
foreground. The dialogue stays at a quick
pace and some good cracks are produced
during verbal sparring scenes between
characters.
With all of the similiarities to the
good old forties films, Peeper may seem
to be somewhat serious. However, all of
the chases, fights and even the
shootings fall on just this side of
seriousness giving it a light, comedic
touch. The drawback is the end of the
movie which is a small letdown from the
rest of the film and leaves a question or
two still unanswered But, while it's not
the Maltese Falcon . Peeper doesn't do
badly at emulating the genre it takes
after.

Morningsong
coming Feb. 5
Morning Song, a contemporary pop
music group will be returning to the
campus on February 5. Featured in
concert during last year's orientation, the
group will perform in Wright Auditorium
at 8:00 p.m. Tickets which are available
from the Central Ticket Office are priced
at $.50 for ECU students and $1.00 for
the public.
Morning Song's music is an exquisite
softness and delicacy blended with the
excitement of growing and l;ving that
only nature could have captured ir her
morning. Artists for centuries have
lauded her sheer beauty and freshness in
that moment. There is an inspiration for
music in a sunrise, music that can gently
touch the heart and carers the soul;
music that can dance in ecstasy with the
mind; music as sad as loneliness, as
happy as love; music that is as fresh and
alive as the new day itself. All of this and
more is captured in Morning Song.
If their previous reception here was
any indication, music lovers should be in
for a real treat. According to
BILLBOARD, the harmonies of the group
is close to those of Crosby, Stills, Nash
and Young.

Many experts begin to agree
Emotions play vital health role
Your emotions, attitudes, ana
behavior may be among the major
determinants of your health according to
an increasing number of experts from a
variety of disciplines, the premise that
Americas major health problems, namely
heart disease, cancer, stroke, suicide,
accidents and homicide are primarily
caused by environmental factors and
individual behavior and, therefore, cannot
be solved solely by medical health
services, also has been endorsed by the
U.S. Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare.
Recently, the American Psychological
Association's Task Force on Health
Research issued a report on the current
status of and the dire need for research
and consumer education on health
related behaviors. The report terms health
"one of the most crucial problems facing
our nation b'Jt notes that our methods
of "providing and financina health
services are nearly exhausted The
health delivery system has not kept pace
with the evolution over the years in
fundamental preventive concepts relating
to health and illness.
The Task Force report reviews the
research on the relationships between
social class poverty and illness, hostility
and hypertension, different personality
types and coronaries, and stress or
depression and disease. Interest in the
relationship between behavior and cancer
is dramatically increasing. A number of
psychologists have discovered a "consis-
tent description of the cancer patient as
a rigid, authoritarian, inner directed and
religious person, with ample conflict
around sexual and hostile impulses,
using excessive repression of affect and
with poor emotional outlet There is
also data that "cancer patients with fast
developing diseases are more defensive
and over-controlled than patients with
slowly developing diseases
(iftm&z&(p
Members of the Task Force found that
"the amount and impact of research on
the relationships between psychological
factors and physical health are anemic
and indicated their intention to stimulate
more interest in research on health
behavior within the psychological
community. The report concluded that
"there is probably no specialty field
within psychology which cannot contri-
bute to the discovery of behavioral
variables crucial to a full understanding
of susceptibility to physical illness,
adaptation to such illness, and
prophylactically motivated behaviors. The
areas open to psychological investigation
range from health care practices and
health care delivery systems to the
management of acute and chronic illness
and to the psychology of medication and
pain
The new emphasis on improving
health behavior requires greater individual
responsibility for one's own health status
and a reduced dependency on the health
care system. Canadian Minister of Health
and Welfare Marc Lalonde described this
focus on individual behavior as a
"cultural revolution which will necessi-
tate change in our eating, driving,
drinking, smoking and exercise habits,
and in our urban and job environments.
"Health Behavior" is a phrase Americans
will be hearing frequently in the future.

Team effort
Pirates roil, taking 74-65win over Madison
By JANET HOEPPEL
Assistant Sports Editor
Anyone who attended the ECU-
Madison College basketball game this
past Saturday would have to agree: the
Pirates played like a team. And behind
that total team effort the women Pirates
beat the previously unbeaten and
eighteenth-ranked Duchesses, 74-65, here
at Minges Coliseum.
After falling behind at the outset of
the first half, when Madison pushed to a
seven point lead, the Pirates slowly
chipped away at the deficit. Finally, with
4:15 remaining in the half, the ECU team
tied and then went ahead with the score
at 27-25. From that point on it was ECU'S
ballgame as the majority of the Pirate
players who played made some type of
contribution.
As they took the lead, which was
never lost throughout the game, the
Pirates began to roll. Coming off the
bench, Ellen Garrison began hitting
jumpers from the outside and finished
with eight points at the half, going for
4-5. Combined with inside shooting by
Rosie Thompson and Debbie Freeman,
the Bucs quickly opened up a seven
point lead at 33-29.
Sports
The two teams played evenly in the
final minutes and ECU held on to a 37-33
advantage.
From the opening tip-off of the
second half until the final minute of the
game, the Pirates and the Duchesses
played an extremely tough, close game.
Madison opened up after intermission
behind the play of Katherine Johnson,
hitting the first shot of the half and
closing the Pirate lead to two points.
ECU held on with one and three point
leads before April Ross connected on a
pair of free throws. This put the Pirates

up by five, 50-45.
A strong rush by Madison closed this
lead, however, as the Duchesses tied he
score, 53-53, with ten minutes still left in
the game.
Because of a strong defensive surge
by the Pirates, ECU was able to stay In
control of the tempo and the game. After
ECU player Joni Home hit for two putting
the Pirates back on top, 55-53. Madison
was held scoreless on their next four
trips down the court. Ross hit for the
Pirates to give them a four point lead.
The only serious threat from the
Madison team after that came when the
Duchesses closed to 57-55. But this
effort was stifled for good as Susan
Manning went inside and scored a
three-point play. The Pirates owned a
60-55 lead and with their overall team
play the outcome of the game was never
in doubt.

Thinclads finish third in meet behind UNC, USC
By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
The East Carolina track and field team
finished third in a very competitive
quadrangular meet at the Tin Can at
Chapel Hill Saturday. North Carolina and
South Carolina tied for first place with 44
112 points, while the Pirates were third
with 40 112 and Duke was fourth with 11
12
Pirate coach Bill Carson was a bit
upset after the meet at the last minute
addition of the Duke team.
"We've gone up there the last two
years and won, so they invite part of the
Duke team at the last minute, that part
takes away from South Carolina and us
and tells them to leave their distance
runners at home. If they were going to
bring any of the team they ought to have
brought the whole team
The Pirate thinclads performed well in
the events they were in, as they took
three events and placed in most of the
events. Herman Mclntyre won the triple
jump, Larry Austin the 60-yard dash, and
Marvin Rankins was victorious in the 60
high hurdles.
Swimmers win sixth meet
BALTIMORE, Md. �East Carolina Un-
iversity's swimmers moved to their dual
meet win of the year Saturday by
downing NCAA College Division power,
Johns Hopkins, 86-47.
The Pirate win, their sixth in seven
meets this year, was paced by Stewart
Mann's varsity record in the 1,000
freestyle event.
Mann, who earlier in the year set
varsity records for the 200 and 500
freestyle and 200 backstroke, splashed
his way to a 9:53 time in the 1,000
freestyle. His time trimmed over four
seconds off the record he set earlier this
year. Tom McKenna, who placed second
for ECU, was a full 57 seconds behind
Mann in the 1,000.
Billy Thome took two events for the
Pirates, winning the 50 and 500 freestyle
events. Thome's time of 4:52.8 in the
freestyle set a new meet record.
Other winners for the
Pirates were: Ross Bohiken in the 5U
freestyle, David Kirkman in the 200
breaststroke, nd the Pirates' 400 medley
and 400 freestyle relay teams.
Although the Pirates won only seven
m
m
m
m
of the 13 events, their depth enabled
them to pick up at least two places in
every individual event except the 200
Breaststroke, where Johns Hopkins
placed second and third.
In the one and three-meter diving
events, Lund Sox could do no better than
third-place, as the Johns Hopkins team
remained close due to the diving events
and the fact that several ECU swimmers
swam in off events.
Coach Scharf noted this fact in his
post-meet comments.
"Basically, we did not swim in our
normal events, so the meet was much
closer than it could have been.
� "It was hard to get our guys up for
this meet after the big win over Maryland
last week
Next weekend, though, East Carolina
should have little trouble in getting up
for a meet. The Pirates return home to
Minges Natatorium to take on the
nationally-ranked swimmers from North
Carolina State. It should be a
record-breaking meet and one in which
the Pirates will not be able to settle for
anything but their best times.
m
Mclntyre won the triple jump with a
fantastic jump of 49l 12 the best jump
of the year for him. The Bucs also took
third and fourth in the jump, with Mike
Hodge going 478 12" and George
Jackson leaping 474
Carson commented on Mclntyre's
jumping.
"Herman looked real good out there
today. He has a chance to qualify for the
nationals if he continues to improve like
he's doing
Austin set a Tin Can record in the
semi-finals of the 60-yard dash with a
clocking of 6.2 on the slow track. In the
finals, Austin clocked 6.3 as did Carter
Suggs and Calvin Alston, who tied for
second.
Rankins won the 60 high hurdles over
a relatively weak field that included his
only competition, teammate Sam Phillips
Rankins won in 7.7, while Phillips, who
pulled a hamstring on the first hurdle,
finished 7.8
Phillips will miss this Saturday's meet
at Columbus, Ohio with the injury and
maybe the following week's VMI Relays.
"It was very unfortunate, Sam's
injury said a dejected Bill Carson. "But
we'll just try to get him in shape for the
conference meet next month

placed second in the long jump with his

Carter's 27 paces VMI to 74-60 victory over ECU
By JOHN EVANS VMI trailed for most of the first half, the Pirates just did not have the fight. second half without ge
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
It was another one of those nights
when the East Carolina basketball team
wasn't prepared to play. This time the
result was a 74-60 whipping at the hands
of the VMI Keydets.
The Pirates, who had been impressive
in an 85-75 win over Richmond last
Wednesday, reverted back to a more
familiar form Saturday night, first
blowing a seven-point lead and then
failing to come back after VMI had pulled
ahead early in the second half.
Led by Ron Carter's 27 points and
John Krovic's 23 points, the Keydets shot
the eyes out of the ball in the second
half to spell defeat for the Pirates. The
Keydets shot 64 per cent in the second
half and 56.9 per cent for the game.
Krovic was 10-for-12 from the floor.
The Pirates' collapse left ECU coach
Dave Patton shaking his head and still
trying to figure out what was the matter
with his team.
"It was another case ot Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde said Patton. "This team goes
out and plays one game then doesn't
play the next one
"I thought they were ready to play
before the game, but they weren't.
They've got me baffled. I can't tell when
they are ready and when they aren't
VMI trailed for most of the first half,
with ECU holding a 17-10 lead at one
point, but fought back with nine straight
points to go ahead 19-17 with 11:37 to
go in the first period.
The Keydets led briefly by three at
25-22, but ECU went back in front at
29-27 on a jumper by Louis Crosby with
5:55 to play in the half.
With five minutes left in the half and
leading by two, Patton put the Pirates
into a freeze offense in an attempt to
bring the Keydets out of a zone defense
The Keydets moved into the zone
after Dave Montgomery and Krovic had
gone to the bench with three fouls
midway through the half. Despite the lack
of scoring power, Ron Carter had picked
up the Keydets with some accurate
shooting and inspired play which seemed
to take what desire the Pirates had away.
The ECU freeze worked as Earl Garner
and, later, Billy Dineen, hit for baskets to
put ECU up at 37-34 with 31 seconds left
in the half.
ECU should have led at the half, but
VMI worked in a jumper by George
Borojevich and Carter converted a tap-in
at the buzzer to give the Keydets the
lead, 38-37.
The difference in the first half was
probably Carter, who took over for
Montgomery and Krovic when they got in
foul trouble. In the second half, though,

A Sports Analysis
I hate basketball.
Maybe hate is too strong a word to use normally, but then again, basketball isn't
exactly a normal, everday game.
It's not that there aren't some good people in the basketball business. East
Carolina University has its share of them, and this writer thinks sometimes it has
more than its share.
This writer just feels that basketball has taken the game away from the players.
The czars of the game have put the power of the game solely on the shoulders of
those two men in the striped shirts.
That's right, the zebras.
They have the power to give you a technical foul when you question their
parenthood (or apparent lack of it, thereof), and in the professional ranks, fine you
money for the same reason
Orr-aQinnqiiy, some sports writer with a lot of column space and a short
vocabulary will spin a yam about how much abuse officials take how
little they get paidhow much they have to travel to do a thankless jod.
Yet, not one time has this writer heard an official complain about a low salary.
Officiating is a second job to the majority of officials and lower-level officials alike.
They officiate for the chance to put an extra car in the garage or an extra vacation in
the warm climates. If you've seen anv Southern Conference games recently,you'll
realize that officiating doesn't seem to be a second job. It is handled much worse.
Officials do have many problems. They often are said to be out of shape, but one
wonders if this assumption is correct when considering the number of miles they run
every year.
It is human nature to have a good shape and a bad game, though. One wonders
why they both come on thesame night and correspond as to who is losing, who is
winning, and when this is decided.
Since the controversial baseball World Series call last fall, it was brought out that
officials have a separate set of rules to administer, rules totally unknown to the
average player. This writer has also had opportunity to examine a booklet prepared by
the conference, one which states what officials are to look for and what, in essence,
they are to let slide.
So there are two different sets of rules. Added with inconsistency,poor eyesight
naturally attributed to old age, and it is no big wonder why players and coaches have
problems with officials.
One wishes there would be an age limit put on conference officials. The officials
who were working in the early days of basketball are still working, in some cases.
They can't keep up with the action, are often found to be making a call while running
towards a play and not already in position to see the play. The game has improved
while the officiating has noticeably deteriorated.
The czars need to come out of the Ice Age and take steps to improve the
officiating in the conference. It is but another of the many reasons the conference is
in the sad shape it is in.
mm0mmm
the Pirates just did not have the fight.
According to Patton, it was the first
couple of minutes in the second half,
when VMI pulled to a 44-39 lead, that
decided the game.
"They took the lead at the end of the
half and held it early in the second half.
That allowed them to sit back in their
zone and make us work for the shot.
"We couldn't do a thing inside and we
had no offensive rebounding. We'd get
one shot and that was it. We got caught
on screens all night long and couldn't
move. They were patient on offense and
we weren't.
"At one point, we cut their lead to
one but what do we do, we make a
turnover. I just wish I knew how we could
make so many turnovers against the
zone
ECU did cut the VMI lead to one, at
48-47, but, as Patton related, turnovers
gave the ball to VMI twice and Krovic and
Carter converted to push the lead back to
52-47 VMI soon thereafter reeled off six
straight points to move ahead by 58-49
and ECU never threatened again.
With five minutes to play, Patton was
called for a pair of technicals after he
argued with a referee. The series of fouls
yielded VMI a four-point play and the
66-53 lead ended any chances that ECU
may have had to win.
Two big factors stood out in the
game. The first is that the Pirates let
Montgomery and Krovic play the entire
second half without getting a foul, thus
allowing the Keydets to control the
game. The second factor was the ECU
inside game.
In the Richmond game, Larry Hunt
and Earl Gamer controlled the boards for
ECU. Against VMI, Hunt had only seven
rebounds and made but one-of-10
from the floor. Gamer hit from the
outside, but his six-for-14 shot tally was
indicative of his failure to click from
underneath.
The leading ECU scorer was Al
Edwards with 16 points, as Gamer and
Reggie Lee added 14 each.
The loss dropped ECU to 5-5 in the
conference and 7-10 on the year. VMI is
now 5-2 in the conference and 11-6
overall.
The Pirates get a break from Southern
Conference play tonight when they travel
to Jersey City, N.J. to play St. Peter's
University.

Time-Out
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
They've Come A Long Way.
The Women's Varsity basketball team is probably the most exciting of East
Carolina's teams in that sport. The Lady Pirates looked more at home Saturday in
Minges Coliseum than the men's team did, as they beat a Madison team that was
undefeated and nationally-ranked.
This writer feels it a shame that the Lady Pirates' schedule calls for only two more
home games this year, on February 3 against UNC-Greensboro and on February 17
against Old Dominion, because the brand of basketball East Carolina's team plays is
very good.
The ladies' game has a lot to offer with the 30-second clock, which promises a
faster tempoed game than most men's contests have of late.
And there are some very fine players on the team, too.
For starters there is Debbie Freeman. If there is a superstar on the East Carolina
campus, it would have to be Ms. Freeman. So far in the Pirates' first five games,
Debbie has scored an average of 23.2 points a game, while grabbing about 13
rebounds a game. Her moves on offense are quick and sure, giving her the
gracefulness that seems to go with that air of confidence she exhibits.
Other Pirates this writer marvels at are Ellen Garrison, Rosie Thompson and Susan
Manning. These three women, like Freeman, make definite contributions to the team.
Garrison with her ball-handling ability as the Pirates' playmaker, Thompson as a
balanced performer between scoring and rebounding, and Manning as a sure-headed
defensive player who is bound to come up with her share of rebounds and steals.
In short, the students at East Carolina have a lot to be proud of in their women's
team. When one considers the advancement the program has made over the last three
years, it seems that the change has long been overdue.
In this sense, this writer has to be happy that the women are getting a fairer shake
than before, when they had very little to work with.
All that is beginning to change and it is for the better, especially in the case of
some of the women's sports where the desire to play far outweighs the rewards in
regards to scholarships and publicity.
In terms of scholarships, too. the women have finally reached a goal. This year,
for the first time. ECU women are getting scholarships for their performances. Debbie
Freeman is one of these women and she well deserves it.
If the women athletes at East Carolina will excuse a somewhat overused phrase,
and in some ways perhaps a little chauvinistic one the women's program has "come
a long way. baby'
From here on it will be a more gradu.i advancement for the women at East
Carolina. They have made a lot of progress thanks to Title IX, although as a rule the
women at East Carolina have been treated better over the last three years than in
most of the crograms in the state, and hopefully this will continue in the future.
Unfortunately, basketball is the only women's sports this writer has really grown
familiar with, but hopefully the progress made in this sport in regards to publicity will
in some way carry over to the other sports also.
Wrestling, Swimming Meet ACC Powers
East Carolina's wrestling and swimming teams will be taking part in what may be
their biggest meets of the year this week.
On Thursday, the ECU wrestlers go against the Tar Heels of North Carolina in a
matchup in Chapel Hill and on Saturday afternoon the ECU swimmers will go up
against the Wolfpack of North Carolina State in Minges Natatorium. These two teams
have compiled fine records, and have beaten some good opposition in doing so.
Ray Scharf's swimmers and John Welborn's wrestlers are both conference
champions, but, more so, they are on the verge of becoming nationally-recognized for
their efforts
State's swim team is nationally-ranked with some possible national champions on
the team, so the tankers will definitely have their work cut out for them. Hopefully,
there will be a packed house Saturday afternoon for this matchup.
In Carolina, Welborn's team will be facing the third-best team in the ACC last year
and one which has gone to great efforts to improve its program. These advances have
for a large part been as a result of ECU'S past success over the Heels in both dual
meet competition and the North Carolina Collegiate tournament.
Where just two years ago the Pirates beat Carolina by scores of 48-0 and 49-0,
now the Tar Heels' program is one of the best in the state. Last year, ECU won by a
23-18 score. The two teams meet Thursday night at 8 o'clock in Chapel Hill.

Grapplers post easy wins over Campbell, Richmond
RICHMOND, Va. �It was a big day
for the East Carolina University wrestling
team here on Saturday, as the Pirates
pranced to a pair of runaway victories
over the University of Richmond and
Campbell College.
ECU beat conference foe Richmond,
40-2, in the first match, then shutout
Campbell, 47-0, in the second match.
In the Richmond meet, ECU recorded
its second straight conference win. Only
a 2-2 draw between John Williams and
Richmond's Steve Crocker tarnished a
perfect day for the Pirates.
Against Richmond, Paul Osman and
Tom Marriott recorded pins, in the 134
and 150-pound classes, but three other
Pirates recorded superior decisions.
Tim Gaghan won at 142 pounds by a
19-6 score and Ron Whitcomb pushed his
Durden leads scoring
Erwin Durden pumped in 37 points, in
an 83-27 win for the Revolutionary Bucks,
to take over the Intramural basketball
scoring lead. Durden passed last week's
leader Terry Nobles, who was held to
only 11 points in the Hachets' 43-31 win
over the Carolina Stars.
The Hatchets used that win over the
previously unbeaten Stars to climb one
place into third in the FOUNTAINHEAD's
TOP TEN. While Nobles was being stifled
by the Stars, teammate Greg Peckman
posted 20 points to lead the Hatchets.
The Hatchets' win was the second
straight over previously unbeaten teams.
They had beaten Durden's Revolutionary
Bucks the week before.
None of the top ten teams from last
week lost, but the Purple Steam, ranked
fifth, barely got by the Hot Dogs, 37-36,
and the P.E. Majors barely beat the
Baptist Student Union, 27-25. The Majors
were ranked seventh last week, but fell
from the top ten this week.
Second-ranked Average White Team
clobbered the Mean Machine, 48-20,
behind Pete Conaty's 17 points.
Third-ranked Pi Kappa Phi (A) dropped to
fourth, despite a 67-24 runaway victory
over Pi Lambda Phi.
A season-ending matchup for the
Division One fraternity championships
developed when the unbeaten Tau Kappa
Epsilon (A) team upset the previously
unbeaten Kappa Alpha Psi team, 34-25.
The win vaulted the Teke's into tenth
place.
The Jack Rollers, 5-0 , jumped into
