Staff Writer
The noise levels in some of downtown
Greenville's night spots can bring about
noise induced hearing loss.
In a recent spot check of the decibels
in the Attic, Loft and Elbo Room, it was
found that the level of noise created by
the bands playing in these places could
cause hearing loss to the people who
frequent them.
The decibel readings were taken when
the bands were playing. They ranged
from a low of 100 decibels, to a high of
117 decibels. The higher readings came
from areas near or in front of the bands'
speakers, areas such as the dance floors.
In each of the establishments
checked, employees and members of the
audiences stated that the bands playing
were not the loudest that they had heard

in the establishments.
Dr. Garrett Hume, head of ECU's
department of speech, language, and
auditory pathology, commented on these
readings in an interview.
"Many of these levels are above those
that the laws for industry allow people to
be exposed to at all he said.
The laws that Hume was referring to
are the standards set up by the
Occupational and Safety Hazard Act
(OSHA) of the federal government. The
allowable exposure times set up by these
OSHA laws are, two hours of exposure to
noise levels of 100 decibels, one hour for
105 decibels, one half hour for 110
decibels, and only 15 minutes for decibel
levels of 115.
The law also states that the

The idea of having one's name in
the Guiness Book of World Records
appears to be at a great height of
desirability presently. However, as far as
Blake Comby is concerned, there are two
things evident: that breaking a world
record is more easily said than done; and
that there is more involved than just the
achievement of one's name in print.
Blake Comby, a radio announcer for
WRQR-FM, is presently attempting to
break the current world record of 216
hours for the longest continuous radio
broadcast by one announcer. Comby, a
senior ECU English major, is broadcas-
ting remote from Oakwood Mobile
Homes in Greenville. He began his
broadcast at noon Wednesday and, in
order to break the record, must continue
until just after noon on Friday.
The idea of attempting to break the
record was conceived by WRQR and
Oakwood Mobile Homes. Comby arrived
at his present position partly through his
own assent and partly through the
wishes of the station. It was after he had
begun his broadcast that he learned that
he had to continue for more than 216
hours, the previous record set in
October, 1975, in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Comby had been misinformed that he
would have to exceed 132 hours, three
SGA seats student councilman
By KENNETH CAMPBELL
Assistant News Editor
SGA President Jimmy Honeycutt has
accepted a proposal from the Greenville
City Council which allows an ECU
student to be a nonvoting member on the
Greenville City Council.
Although the student will not be able
to vote, he will have speaking privileges
during council meetings, public hearings,
and at other times at the discretion of
the Mayor, according to Honeycutt.
"This step taken by the city, I think,
will be looked upon as a valuable
addition by all those concerned with the
affairs of the city of Giaenville
Honeycutt commented.
Other privileges to be enjoyed by the
representative include being given a
regular place on the agenda in order to
make a monthly report to the Council,
said Honeycutt.
The representative will receive
advance copies of the agenda and other
pertinent information. He may be asked
to attend workshop meetings, as
determined by the City Council.
The student representative will also
be officially recognized by the City
Council and will be assigned a seat on
the platform.
The President of the SGA will appoint
the representative.
The next meeting of the Greenville
City Council is April 8.
mm
Since Tim Sullivan will take office as
new SGA President on April 11, out
going president Jimmy Honeycutt is
allowing SGA President-elect, Tim
Sullivan, to appoint the council
representative.
According to Honeycutt, Sullivan will
be the student representative during the
April 8 meeting.
Honeycutt said he rejected prior
proposals by the Council because the
SGA's position was not being seriously
taken.
However, he said the Halloween
disturbance last year further encouraged
the SGA that a student representative is
needed on the council.
Also, "This occurenoe made the city
realize that a student representative on
the City Council would be beneficial
said Honeycutt.
Since last Halloween, Tim Sullivan
has held numerous meetings with Frank
Fuller, and William Hadden, both who
are members of the Greenville City
Council.
As a result of these meetings, Mayor
Percy Cox sent Honeycutt a letter
outlining the terms the City Council has
agreed on.
Although the terms are a little vague
on how much speaking privileges the
student will have, Honeycutt said he
accepted the proposal because of a
conversation with Cox which convinced
him the Student representative will have
fairly liberal speaking privileges
m
and one-half days less than the actual
record.
The main obstacle standing between
Blake Comby and a new world record is
the sandman. In order to maintain his
health and his alertness, Comby is on a
high protein diet and is supplementing
this with vitamins. He receives a physical
check-up daily and drinks very little
coffee. He takes no stimulant drugs.
The advertising and promotional
aspects associated with this quest
increase the pressure on Comby.
Merchants are offering merchandise to be
given away periodically during the
broadcast. A grei, deal of the success of
the joint venture of Oakwood Mobile
Homes and WRQR depends on whether
Comby breaks the record or not. Comby
indicated as early as Friday that he felt
pressure when he said, "I can be a hero

Voting unfairness charged
Bv JIM fi i mrr
By JIM ELUOTT
Tim McLeod, who was second in the
race for Student Government Association
Vice-President, filed a complaint with
President Jimmy Honeycutt Thursday
claiming that the preferential balloting
used in last week's election was unfair.
"The reason I'm contesting the
elections is because three of the four
people who were elected did not win a
majority of the people voting McLeod
said.
"A majority of the people who voted,
voted against the candidates who were
elected. If you total the number of people
who voted for Lucas (the third candidate
in the vice-presidential race) and me, it is
greater than the number who voted for
Greg Pingston, who was the winner
Greg Pingston, who won the race for
Vice-President, when contacted Monday
evening, refuted McLeod's claim that
preferential balloting is unfair.
"Mr. McLeod, if he checks the
constitution and the election rules will
find that there is no stipulation for a 50
per cent winning majority Pingston
asserted.
"It would be very difficult for any of
the candidates to win a clear majority
with the number of candidates running.
"I would just hope that Mr. McLeod
would reconsider and work for the
betterment of the Legislature and not for
creating dissention.
"If a run-off election is called for, I
will gladly accept the challenge and
campaign as I previously did
Another complaint was filed by Teresa
Whisenant, candidate for President,
according to Roy Turner, elections
chairman.
Both Whisenant's and McLeod's
comlaints are of the same nature, Turner
said. Whatever the Honor Council
decides will be the same for both of
them.
Tim Sullivan, who was declared
official winner of the presidential race
with less than 40 per cent of the
preferential votes, was unavailable for
comment.
Article XIV of the election rules, titled
"Balloting" reads as follows:
Section I: In elections for any University
Marshall, those candidates who receive
the highest pluralities shall be elected. In
the event of a tie for the last position a
run-off election will be held to break the
tie.
Section 2: All other candidates will be
run on a preferential ballot.

Balloting changes needed
While a lot of issues were talked about during the past
election by various candidates, at least one new issue has
surfaced as a result of the electionsand that is the way the
elections are conducted themselves.
No, we are not criticizing the manner in which Election
Chairman Roy Turner and his workers conducted the elections.
We feel they did a fine job.
What we are criticizing though is the election format-the
preferential ballot which allows students to vote for even their
second and third choices for the various offices.
Why a simple voting method like having students vote for
one and only one candidate is not used, is hard to understand.
To begin with, the simple one vote ballot would be a lot
easier to tally. And, when help is as hard to find as it is on this
campus that would be a definite plus for the simple ballot.
Then, the first ballot would be a lot easier to understand
when the results are in.
But, simplicity aside, the biggest criticism we have of the
method is the haunting possibility that with the preferential
ballot a student could actually win an election even though he
may not have been a first choice of a plurality of the voter. In a
close race a student could come out second, or even further
down than that in the first choice poll, but be the popular
second and third choice and come out on top.
Now, is the election system geared to elect second and third
choices or first choices?
Picking second and third choices for office is really
humorous when you think about it. Now, in the elections of
1968 can you see the average voter grappling with the question
of who should be second or third after the first vote went to
Nixon-will it be Wallace or Humphrey?
In an election you vote for the person you want to win, your
first vote. Then you don't figure out who you would like to see
in there if your first choice does not get it or then third if your
first two choices fail.
The preferential ballot is apparently aimed at keeping the
SGA out of run-offs. And, while we can see why this would be a
good goal, we think there has to be a better way.
There are other wavs to keeping the elections out of runoffs.
Simply rewrite election laws to allow the student with a plurality
of the vote be declared the winner. No need to count those
second and third choices. We are interested in the student who
polled the most first choice votes.
In last Wednesday's election Tim Sullivan was the over-
whelming first choice on the first choice ballot. He did not do
as good as some in the second or third ballot category. But, he
still led the pack in the first choice votes and deserves the win.
The same is true of candidates Greg Pingston and Tommy
Thomason.
A bill was introduced last year to change the election
procedures but Bob Lucas vetoed it. Hopefully, another bill will
be introduced before another general election and Sullivan will
support it.

Idea dies
Occasionally we have a few loose ends that need tied
together just to set the record straight.
First, we would like to lay to rest for good any official
attempt by the editor to change the name of this
newspaper.
You do remember the "name that newspaper contest"
we ran a few months back aon t youv uon't feel too bad if
you have forgotten because most everyone else has
forgotten about it also.
For some reason we thought that it might be a good
idea to change the name of the campus paper to some
name that would relate to the university more.
Fountainhead and ECU do not correlate very well.
But, the cry of anguish from some students was
overwhelmina The convincing argument for dropping
the idea came when some 140 students sent us a petition
asking for the name to be left alone. We personally did
not think you could get 140 students to agree on anything
on this campus, including the day of the week.
But, if 140 students like the name the way it is then we
will leave it like it is.
After all, who are we to try and tamper with
posterity.
Secondly, there is the matter of a missing
endorsement this paper promised before the election.
The idea to endorse a slate of candidates was not
quickly conceived, nor was it quickly abandoned,
thought went into the decision to endorse
candidates and then a lot of thought went
decision not to endorse some candidates.
To begin with, we feel the paper had the right to
endorse any candidate it chose to endorse. But, at the
same time the other candidates who failed to get the
endorsement were actually paying for the endorsement
the others were getting.
The paper is funded by all students through student
fees so an endorsement for one candidate would have
actually been paid for by the other candidates since their
fees help pay for the paper. And, that is just not right, we
feel.
A private paper, owned by an individual can endorse
anyone it likes. But, a public organization like this simply
can't. It was after pondering this argument for some
time we decided not to endorse a candidate.
The paper has in the past endorsed candiates. It was
done two years ago.
And, maybe future editors will decide the paper
should back a candidate or candidates in student
elections. But, we don't think so.

SGA election violations cited by student
To Editor:
I'm writing to complain of the way
one election worker took down material
that supported three presidential candi-
dates who were running in the election.
The names of the candidates were Tim
Sullivan, Teresa Whisenant and Lynn
Schubert. I do not feel it is the
responsibility of the poll tenders to take
down campaign material but the
responsibility of the candidates or their
workers. If these people are really serious
about running they would check out the
polling areas and remove their own
campaign material that is within 100 feet.
Article IV Section 2 "They (Poll Tenders;)
will report any violation to the Election
Board for appropriate action Under
Article XI Section 1 "Campaign literature
of any type, solicitation for the
advancement of any candidate or
commercialization in favor of a candidate
shall not be permitted within 100 feet of
any polling place during the hours of
election that the polling place is open
Under Article IV Section 3 it states "Any
student that is a candidate or his or
her campaign worker, as designated in
Article VI, may not be a poll tender
subject to the Election Chairman's
approval
To me the three sections above mean
that a poll worker should be expected to
report any violations of campaign rules
(Art. IV Section 2) and be expected to be
impartial to all candidates (Art. IV
Section 3). I feel that when a poll tender
takes down material and does not report
it, that would have been in violation of
Article XI Section 1 if he had not
removed the material. This seems to
show that the poll tender is partial to
these candidates. The above was
witnessed at Mendenhall Student Center
on March 24, 1976 between the hours of
83; to 10. Article 3 Section 4 of the
General Election Rules states that
"Polling places will be open from 9:00
a.m5:00 p.m. on elections day
Mendenhall's polling booth was not
open till 9:50 not 9.00. This is just one
of the violations I observed while sitting
in the lobby of Mendenhall Student
Center.
In making these charges I am not
calling for new elections but feel these
candidates should be disqualified on the
basis of these violations. If these
candidates are not disqualified because
of violations what good are the election
rules if not followed or enforced by the
Election Committee, SGA or the Honor
Council.

Abortion issue will be key in election
(CPS)-Anti-abortion forces have been
trying to dismantle the Supreme Court
decision which struck down all state
anti-abortion laws for three years now,
but this year their efforts are finally
bearing fruit.
Abortion foes in many states are
making their views known to presidential
candidates campaigning in the primaries
by picketing meeting places and
badgering them with tough questions
about their stands on abortion. Many of
the presidential hopefuls are being forced
to take positions on an issue they
thought had been settled once and for all
by the high court. And if they stand
firmly in favor of "abortion on demand

Other presidential candidates con-
fronted with abortion questions have
tried to walk a thin line between approval
of the Supreme Court decision and
opposition to an anti-abortion constitu-
tional amendment. Some candidates, like
Democrat Jimmy Carter, appease the
abortion foes by stating they are
personally opposed to abortion on
demand but support the Supreme Court
decision which made it legal.
Like the rest of the Democratic
candidates, Carter opposes a constitu-
tional amendment forbidding abortions
but his half-hearted condemnation of
abortion won him a great deal of support
from the Catholic rank and file in Iowa.
The only candidate?besides the
pro-life movement's own Ellen Mc-
Gormack-who endorses the idea of a
constitutional amendment outlawing
abortion is Republican Ronald Reagan.
Reagan has come out flatly against
abortion on demand and promises to
make it illegal except in rare
posing a clear risk to a woman's life.
Both enemies and supporters of
abortion on demand have called
President Ford's stand on abortion
"waffling" and of no help to either side.
Last week Ford told Walter Cronkite that
the Supreme Court had gone "too far" in
striking down state laws against
abortion. Ford himself offered a
moderate position opposing abortion on
demand but recognizing that there were
cases including rape and illness when
abortion "should be permitted What
Ford envisioned 'or the Issue was a
constitutional amendment allowing each
state to decide for itself whether to allow
abortions.
The anti-abortion forces, although
continuing their warfare with the
candidates on a state level, now have
their own presidential candidate to swing
their votes behind. A 49-year-old
suburban housewife from New York
threw her hat into the Democratic ring
recently and raised enough funds from
supporters to qualify for federal election
m
funds. Although Ellen McCormack is
known as the right-to-life candidate, she
insists that she is not just a one-issue
candidate. She has taken stands against
bussing and in favor of Soviet-American
detente.
But the $100,000 already raised for
her campaign came primarily from
anti-abortion groups who have placed her
name on the ballots in 20 state
presidential primaries. (McCormack won
about one per cent of the votes in the
New Hampshire primary.) McCormack
was almost denied the federal funds
because many people think she is using
the money to promote the anti-abortion
cause and not her own candidacy.
Federal Election Commission Chairman
Neil Staebier voted against giving federal
funds to McCormack's candidacy
because he didn't think the commission
could tell whether the individual
contributions were for McCormack's
presidential race or the anti-abortion
movement.
Although there's little chance that
McCormack will even gain bargaining
power with the few votes she gamers in
the primaries, the anti-abortion move-
ment will be back in the public eye for
the next several months. And politicians
on the state and local levels will be
watching for the mood of the voters on
abortion laws.

(CT&T) will print 5,000 student
directories next year.
CT&T's action is the result of
negotiations with ECU because of the 20
cent charge for directory assistence calls.
"The students felt the directory
assistence charges was a bad deal
because student numbers aren't in the
phone book said Jimmy Honeycutt,
SGA president. "What we thought would
be the best idea was to talk to CT&T and
see if they could print a directory
"Rudolph Alexander, associate dean
of student affairs, Julian Vainwright,
assistant to the business manager, and
myself went and talked to the area
manager, the district manager and the
manager of directory assistance said
Honeycutt.
"We presented our case that students
were discriminated against. We felt it
was their responsibility. We pay the
same price for telephone service and so
we felt we should get the same service.
"They were receptive to the idea but
were concerned about the details.
Last week we heard from them and
they have agreed to publish a separate
directory for ECU.
"It will include all students with
phones in the dorms, it will list both
students in a dorm room. It will have
listing of all campus phones such as
buildings, departments, faculty and staff.
It will be in the students hands by
October 15, 1976.
"It will not include Day Students'
phone numbers. They said it would be
too much of a problem. This will help
alleviate the problem of students
somewhat.
"ECU will be responsible for tne
distribution of the books. The SGA will
probably play a large role in this.
"The cover will be decided by a
committee of students, Vainwright, and
Raymond Davis, manager of the print
shop.
"In 1972 the Student Union published
a directory but it was too much trouble
and they felt it was not their
responsibility. The MRC and WRC tried
this year but had a poor response. It was
poorly distributed because only dorm
students got it, Day Students had to pay
for it
New SGA officers comment on victories
By CINDY BROOME
Staff Writer
Tim Sullivan, Greg Pingston, Tommy
Thomason, and Cynthia Whitaker are the
official winners of the Student Govern-
ment Association elections which were
held Wednesday, March 24.
Tim Sullivan, newly elected SGA
President, comments: "With some of the
handicaps I've had in this race, this is
one hell of a victory. I'm grateful that the
student body had enough faith in a
sophomore - and a controversial one at
that - to elect him.
"I take this election to mean that the
students are in favor of my plans to
increase student involvement in the
Greenville Community, to keep public-
ations under SGA, and to open student
government up again to everyone -
freshman or senior, b'ack or white, freak
or straight - they can all feel welcome in
my office.
"This campaign has been better than
most, I think, because of the high caliber
of the other three candidates.
"There was no well-oiled machine, nor
any bulldozing from anyone because it
was a close one and everyone was
fighting to the last stretch.
"This is only the first fight
Greg Pingston, SGA Vice-President,
states: "First of all, I'd like to thank all
the people who supported me and helped
me with my campaign. I'd also like to
congratulate those who won and those
candidates who did not win. I hope they
will work further with the SGA for the
improvement of East Carolina University.
"One of my first projects is to launch
an in-depth study of the student parking
situation, and to start planning on
looking for ways of improving our
transportation system. Also, I'd like to
start pushing a proposal to set up an
SGA newsletter which would come out
periodically. Overall, I'm looking forward
to a real productive year with the
legislature and the student body
Tommy Thomason, SGA Treasurer,
comments: "My main objective for the
next year is to establish an additional set
of books to be kept in the treasurer's
office, making sure that these books
balance weekly with those of the Student
Fund Accounting Office. My second
objective is to become more beneficial to
the SGA Legislature Branch through
efforts to submit a weekly figure
concerning finances. And finally, I'd like
to establish a budget committee to be
NOISE
Continued from page 1.
exposed to noise levels above 115
decibels for any time at all. Several of
the decibel levels, particularly in the Attic
and Loft were above 115.
These laws do not apply to the
establishments named, but are given here
for the purpose of comparison.
"If a person goes downtown twice a
week and locates himself on the dance
floor or in areas of 117 decibels over a
period of time, he is going to have a
noise induced hearing loss said Hume.
"An experience which every one has
had which is related to hearing loss is
called temporary threshhold shift. This
occurs when you have been exposed to
high levels of noise and then for
whatever reason the noise is removed.
For a short time you experience a hearing
loss.
"This happens because the neural
firing of the inner ear has exhausted
itself.
"After being in a quiet environment
for a while normal hearing returns. But if
this shift happens repeatedly over a
period of time the normal level of hearing
will be lowered. Slowly it begins to stay
lower and a substantial hearing loss can
result
"One of the major causes of noise
induced hearing !oss is physical trauma
to the inner ear. All of the levels found in
inese places (The Attic. Loft and Elbo
Room) are high enough to cause this
under continued exposure.
"What happens is that noise pressure
vibrates the nerves of the inner ear until
they eventually fall off.
"And a hearing loss caused by noise
is permanent. There is no medical or
surgical treatment for it. The only
treatment is a hearing aid, and this does
not work very well because of the nature
of the loss.
"It is a scientifically proven fact that
there is a direct relationship between
high intensity noise exposure and
hearing loss. And all of the levels
recorded in these places are well over
safe levels said Hume.
Hume said that he felt the best
solution possible would be for the city to
create ordinances governing the level of
sound that the bands playing in these
places can emit. He said that the
problem was worthy of such efforts.
"It was enough of a problem for
OSHA to pass level controls. If it wasn't
a major problem these would not have
been passed
But until such ordinances are created,
if even, he suggests one simple way of
insuring against hearing loss for those
who want to frequent these places.

talked to Dean Mai lory Monday, but had
heard nothing about the complaints.
Jones explained that before these
complaints can be heard by the Honor
Council, they first have to go through
Mallory's office.
WORLD'S RECORD
Turner said another complaint was
filed by Scott Bright, who claimed that
the election should be invalid because
campaign literature is not supposed to be
displayed within 100 ft. of the voting
places.
Bright indicated instances where this
rule had been broken, but with authority
to act on complaints of this nature, the
Elections Committee rules against this
one, according to Turner.
"We threw that out because that's one
of the variables you can't control Turner
said.
The elections chairman went on to
say that this election had run better than
the one last fall. "We must have gotten
12 calls a day on that one he said.

Favorite teacher contest planned
During pre-regi strati on for Summer
and Fall Quarters, ECU students will
have the opportunity to vote for the
outstanding undergraduate teachers they
have personally had in at least one
undergraduate course during Fall, Winter,
or Spring quarter of this academic year.
From April 12-16, an IBM voting card
with the student's name and I.D. numb
on it will be available from that student's
advisor.
The student may vote for one to three
undergraduate teachers and is to assign
to each nominated teacher a weight of 10
(highest rating), 8, or 6, depending upon
the intensity of each nomination.
Completed IBM cards should be
returned to the student's departmental or
college office.
The Faculty Senate Instructional
Survey Committee is conducting this
survey. Diana Carroll, chairperson of the
committee, stressed that the committee's
intention is not to conduct a "popularity
contest" but rather to give students a
chance to vote their opinions on those
faculty members who have been
particularly effective in helping students
to learn. It is, perhaps, important to bear
in mind that the best, most proficient
teachers are not necessarily the most
popular and, conversely, that the most
popular teachers are not necessarily the
best.
The student vote will be statistically
analyzed, Ms. Carroll added, to minimize
any possible bias in the vote due to
discrepancies in class size, students who
have had the same instructor more than
once (yet who have only one vote),
variations among faculty in grading, etc.
The SGA and Provost Howell have
given their full support to the survey.
Each student is urged to pick up his or
her voting card during pre-registration
week and vote, even if he or she does not
intend to pre-register.
Announcement of the results of the
survey will be made in the early Fall of
1976.

Campus radio undergoes constant change
By TIM JONES
Staff Writer
WECU, the campus radio station,
during its operation this year has
undergone several improvements, and
plans for an even better radio network are
now taking shape. Although the station
has the best equipment for production in
Greenville, the staff is working toward
better services to listeners and more
professional quality.
The station is planning to subscribe
to North Carolina news from syndicated
news services. In addtion to receiving
these services, free of charge, WECU
news will continue to cover local and
campus events.
News is presently obtained from the
Associated Press and the ECU News
Bureau. With four reports a day the news
department at the station is weak. Ken
Williams, WECU station manager, feels
this weakness is basically due to a lack
of people to receive and read news on
the air. The small news staff, the only
unpaid workers at the station, consists of
a few broadcasting students seeking
experience in actual broadcast and
production work.
WECU offers free classified adverti-
sing to students through the Public
Service Department. Classified ads
programs are read live on the air daily
WECU, campus radio, is operated entirely by ECU students.
Arts Council serves
Greenville community
By FAYE BLALOCK
Staff Writer
When faced with the prospects of
forming an arts council in a university
community, one runs into difficulties.
Many smaller areas have their own
Arts Councils, but larger, university
communities such as Raleigh and
Greenville, do not. The reason behind
this is; why should the community
organize and produce their own cultural
activities when they can take advantage
of University programs? A question along
this sarre line might be; why should the
community develop athletic programs
when they can attend those of the
university?
The evident flaw in this attitude is
that the community lacks active
involvement in these activities. The
Greenville Arts Council is being formed
as a remedy to this apathy.
The Council will be controlled by the
community, not by the university,
although members of the E.C.U. faculty,
such as, Or. Charles W. Moore, from the
school of Music, and others, are active
members in organizing the council.
Moore is acting as temporary
chairman until the council actually gets
underway, when he intends to hand his
position over to a member of the
community who can devote more time to
the management of the council's affairs.
For the time-hemg though, there is
ample work to be done, in developing the
basics for the council, such as: getting
the by-laws together, gaining status as a
non-profit, tax-free organization, and
applying for funds at national, state and
local levels.
Moore and the council have a
sufficient amount of work to occupy
themselves with before they submit for
funds on October 1. Hopefully, by then,
the organization will be sufficiently
underway to put some of their plans into
action.
Council members hope to make
available opportunities to the community
such as traveling artist series, dance and
drama programs, many of which are not
available now. The Arts Council though
will have access to receive such
information on such programs and can
thereby make available such knowledge.
The main objective of the council,
however is not to bring in from outside
talent or entertainment from outside the
community, but to stimulate interest In
locally organized, plays, ballets, and art
shows, using area talent. Though there
are some strong organizations already
active in Greenville such as the Greenville
Art Center, the Greenville Boy's Choir
and the Greenville Community Choir
there are hopes of forming more
organizations which would cater to varied
interest, and thereby involve more
people.
An added benefit of the Arts Council
would be its attraction of industries to
the area which are interested in culturally
enlightened communities.
ECU students would also benefit from
the greater availability and broader range
of cultural events.
reporting announcements, items for sale,
lost and found, etc.
Music played at the station has
greatly improved with an up-to-date
record collection including sections for
disco, soul, and top 40's rock. Records
are now received directly from recording
companies and are promptly played for
WECU listeners. Attempts to improve
music selections are made by encoura-
ging listeners to call in likes and
dislikes.
WECU features a six o'clock
progressive rock program, playing cuts
from various albums. Also featured each
night at ten is programs that give
listeners an opportunity to hear entire
albums before buying them.
CHANGEOVER TO FM
In 1973-74 a petition of student
signatures was presented to the SGA to
show that students are witling to pay for
an FM radio network on campus. As an
FM station, WECU would be available
throughout the city instead of strictly to
the dormitories as it is now. FM would
also improve the quality of sound, as
well as services from record companies
who give priority to FM networks.
Station manager, Ken Williams says
that he does not see WECU becoming an
FM station in the near future. Williams
suggests the SGA form a committee to
investigate the proposal to form an FM
station. This committee's basic duties
would consist of researching financial
requirements for FM, investigating and
establishing a need for FM on campus
and in Greenville, and hiring a lawyer.
These are the things that Williams and
the radio staff are unable to do.
"If WECU can be proved definitely
professional Williams commented, "FM
will be easier to get

Biologist warns against crawly things
By NANCY HARTIS
Staff Writer
Spring is upon us and now is the time
for that picnic you've been wanting to
have or that hike through the woods
you've been itching to take. Getting out
from under your roommate's armpit and
taking in the fresh air and warm sunshine
sounds great, right?
But there are certain hazards to
consider before you make the big
transition "back to nature People aren't
the only animals to come out of
hibernation at winter's end.
Along with other cold-blooded beasts,
snakes will make their annual " coming
out" in the very near future and according
to Dr. Carlton Heckrotte of the Biology
Department here, Pitt County will be full
of the wriggly little rascals.
He added that North Carolina
residents incur the highest incidence of
poisonous snake bites in the country. "In
fact he grinned, "snakes is about the
only thing we're number one in That's
something to think about the next time
you go tripping along barefoot in the
woods.
Copperheads, Canebrake rattlers,
Water Moccasins, Black Rat and Hog
Nose snakes are among the most
common species found in this area,
Heckrotte said. Of these, Copperheads
are probably the most prevalent.
A Copperhead snake has a poisonous
bite but the poison is relatively weak and
is almost never fatal. Copperheads can
range in length from two to four feet and,
Heckrotte said, can be found almost
anywhere-from your backyard to the
nearby woods.
Since Copperheads, like all snakes,
hibernate in winter, its advisable to
approach tnat old woodpile or overturned
wheelbarrow with a certain degree of
prudence.
A Canebrake rattler is probably the
most dangerous snake you'll meet in the
woods of Eastern North Carolina.
Unlike the Copperhead, the Canebrake
can kill with his poison, but like most
snakes, he won't bother you unless you
bother him first. The best thing to do
when you see any snake, Heckrotte
advised, is leave it alone.
So maybe now you've changed your
mind about that hike, eh? A little
swimming along the Tar River sounds
better? You may find you're not alone.
Water Moccasins just love the ol' Tar.
In fact, Pitt County has an abundance
of harmless water snakes according to
Dr. Heckrotte. Alas, the Water Moccasin
is not so harmless. Ranging in length
from three to four feet, this snake has a
poisonous bite and is known to be
aggressive.
"So what?" you way. "I'll just putter
around the backyard Beware the Black
Rat snake and the Hog Nose snake! Both
are relatively harmless, neither is
poisonous, but they are quite common in
this area.
The Hog Nose snake may exhibit
some rather startling behavior, however.
Heckrotte reported that it is know to coil,
spread its neck, hiss, and strike even
though it is virtually harmless. If
rebutted, it plays dead.
If you should come across a
dangerous snake and get bitten, get to
the nearest source of medical assistance
immediately. If possible, take the snake
with you to the hospital to insure that
you receive the correct antivenin.
Social work sponsors program
Group fights juvenile delinquency
"Planning juvenile Delinquent Preven-
tion Programs a workshop, will be held
by the East Carolina University
Department of Social Work and
Corrections April 2-3.
Dr. William Smith and Dr. William
Formby, both of the Social Work
Department, will lead area police officers
and social workers in discussions
centered on the prevention of juvenile
delinquency crimes.
The workshop will be funded by the
Juvenile Justice Coordinating Committee,
a state agency that provides funds and
guidelines for many law enforcement
workshops throughout the state.
According to Formby, the goal of the
workshop is to provide corrections
workers with a chance to bring their
problems with juvenile delinquents to the
group. The instructors will then suggest
"counter-measures" to specific problems.
Smith added that the workshop will
concentrate on practical crime preven-
tion.
Smith said that studies have shown
that larcency, auto theft, and breaking
and entering are the most prevalent
crimes committed by juvenile delin-
quents.
The workshop will be held both days
at the Ramada Inn from 8:30 a.m. to 4
p.m.
Several out-of-town social workers
and law enforcers are expected to attend.
Those particiDatinq will receive units
toward accreditation renewal from the
Division of Continuing Education at the
university.
Formby stressed there is a difference
between juvenile delinquents, who are
actual crime committers, and the
undisciplined child who is out of his
parents' control but does not break the
law.
Any young person under 16 who
breaks the law is a juvenile delinquent
and can be tried in juvenile court, an
undisciplined child is not a law breaker
but is out of his parents' control.

Doc Watson and Merle Watson, with
Frosty Morn appeared at the Carolina

two shows, at 700 and 10.00.
Everyone that played with Doc and
Merle, including themselves, were from
our respectable state of North Carolina.
Doc and Merle were from Deep Gap,
others were from Dunn and Boiling
Spring.
It is all too easy to forget that North
Carolina has the oldest and proudest
heritage of any of these United States.
Doc Watson serves to remind us that
country music is not just the only music
originating in these southern United
States, but is also excellent music.
Someone from the audience yelled
Doc Watson, the king of bluegrass
Doc answered, "Me and the group might
play a couple of bluegrass tunes, but
bluegrass didn't come around till about
1940 or 45. "The music Doc plays was old
when he started playing, and that was
before 1940.
To recreate this concert atmosphere
you must remember that it took place at
the Carolina Cowboy Saloon. If there is a
person that did not get lost the first time
to the Saloon, there is also probably
someone with a 4.0 GPA.
After driving for what seemed like
hours, and a chorus of "this is it we
have arrived.
Even arriving late to a crowded
saloon, the music has not started. We
settle down with a oeer. then maybe
another Soon you get impatient,
especially when you also feel crowded.
But then music does start, and
sounds better for the waiting.
Rich Mountain Tower comes to the
stage apologizing for being minus one
guitar, but it makes no difference. They
play well.
"It is our job to warm you up for the
best flat picker you will ever hear. Doc
Watson will be out after we play you a
few songs says Rich Mountain's lead
equipment is microphones.
The stage is set, and blind Doc
Watson is led onto the stage by the two
v
singer and guitar player.
The five piece group plays the kind of
music that the Cowboy Saloon is known
for bringing to Greenville, country rock.
They begin with a lively song about
"Pretty Boy Floyd The rest of their
concert is songs that could be described
as classic country. "Rolling in My Sweet
Baby's Arms "Dim Lights, Thick
Smoke, and Loud, Loud Music and
"Knockin' on Heaven's Door" are among
those played.
As they play and receive much
appreciation from the audience, people
are still getting restless. They want to
hear "The Doc and yell such to the
stage.
Rich Mountain leaves, and a very slow
seemingly inept stage crew sets up five
straight backed chairs and microphones.
They bring out a small piano, and move
all other equipment from the stage. You
realize that you are in for a treat when
you see the washboard. The only sound
members of the group that are to play
with him for the first half of the show. It
takes minutes for the crowd to quiet
down.
"Be quiet or I won't pick says Doc.
The crowd is quiet. The first song the
three of them play is "Salty Dog
Doc Watson is very sensitive to voices
in the audience. Being blind, it is
probably the only way he can orient
himself. When the crowd is loud, Doc
gets visibly annoyed. The front members
of the audience say "shshsh
"A while ago I got to thinking about
this old country song, and thought that I
might add my two cent's worth, and if I
didn't ruin it, I might have a good song
Doc had a good song.
In the song "my neighbor caught me
kissing his wife But Doc was more
worried about his wife than his neighbor
or his neighbor's wife. "I'd be killed, then
beat to death he said. So he slowly
rides home, and mistakenly kills another
neighbor's rooster. He goes to see about
"replacing it His neighbor says, "I don't
know, let's hear you crow
If the words to the songs, and his
voice are not enough to entertain you,
you have only to listen to his six string
guitar for half a minute, and you are
entertained. It is quite possible that Doc
Watson is the best flat picker in the
world.
He plays a blues song, anc explains a
little about the heritage of country music.
He plays two separate versions of "The
Sheik of Araby One version is country,
the other is a little worse. Both versions
were excellent, and the words, you may
notice, have been changed since you last
heard the song.
Doc then invites some more of his
friends to join him on stage. Among his
friends is a man who plays "banjo and
slide guitar, my good friend and son,
Merle Watson says Doc. He introduces
the rest of the group and sings a song
called "Gypsy Lady" that is reminiscent
of barber shop quartet harmony on a
country song. You get the feeling that
the song is older than any barbershop
quartet.
To finish the show, much too soon
for anybody in the audience, is a song
that probably is always associated with
Doc Watson, "Momma Don't Like No
Music Played Around Here Each verse
gives a lead to one of the members of
the group. "Momma don't want no
washboard pickin' round here was the
part this reporter was waiting for. "We
don't care what momma don't like, gonna
lay my washboard through the night
v)thers wait for banjo, guitar, piano or
slide. Whatever your favorite instrument
is, it was in that song.
And so, too soon, the concert is over.
You do not feel angry to have paid
money for a short show, but privileged to
have been able to share in this old
heritage of ours.
Frampton's album is outstanding
PETER FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE
By R. WHITSON
Peter Frampton (ex of Humble Pie)
has recently replaced Roger Daltrey as
the heart-throb of millions of adolescent
teeny-boppers Apart from his admitted
good looks, his music is also worth
noting Peter Frampton Comes Alive, a
collection of songs from various
concerts, has been called "a testimony to
Peter Frampton in his natural habitat" -
the concert stage. His boyish charm
enthralls his audiences nearly as much
as his vocal, guitar and keyboard
abilities.
The first song on the LP (recorded at
Winterlands, San Francisco), "Some-
thing's Happening offers clear proof of
Frampton's relaxed stage presence,
sensed even on vinyl, and proof also of
the excellent support he receives from
John Siomos on drums, Bob Mayo - who
masters everything from second guitar to
grand piano, and Stanley Sheldon on
bass An easy rolling tune, it provides
the perfect example of what's to come.
"Doobie Wah the album's second
song, is Frampton s attempt at capturing
the essence of Southern boogie, a task
he accomplishes with extremely favorable
results.
The next cut, more familiar perhaps
than any other tune on the LPs, "Show
Me the Way" features Frampton on both
guitar and talkbox. The vocals,
expressing a combination of romantic
love and lust, flow in mellow streams
from Frampton and Sheldon, who also
provide the strong bass accompaniment.
The two record set, packaged to
provide a full concert effect, was
produced by Frampton who also selected
his best cuts for this set, one of which is
undoubtedly "All I Want to Be (Is By
Your Side)" This tune is Frampton's
world renowned melter of female hearts.
He reveals on this song his acoustic skill
and the effect is that of a strikingly
mellow emotional appeal that would be
seemingly impossible to refuse.
"Wind of Change interspersed with
loud whistles of approval and general
audience rumble which, surprisinoly
mmm
m
enough, adds to the effect, again offers
Frampton on solo acoustic guitar with
equally laudable results. He is
undoubtedly destined to further suc-
cesses, possibly even the questionable
laurels of "super-stardom if he can
continue to excite audiences as he
evidently does on this cut.
Side Three opens with Frampton
again exhibiting his phenomenal acoustic
ability on "Penny for Your Thoughts"
which then suddenly launches into "(I'll
Give You) Money Frampton and
Sheldon combine to drive home their own
particular brand of electric fantasia. Bob
Mayo provides outstanding second guitar
support and back-up vocals
"Shine On" follows in the same fast
paced, hell-raising rock mood. Pleading,
"Shine on, shine on me Frampton
creates an extreme desire to simply move
with the music. The audience loved it
and the following tune, "Jumping Jack
Flash" Remember the old Stones or Leo
Russell versions? Frampton equals and
possibly surpasses their best. John
Simos' powerful, nearly neolithic,
jupmi i i oimwi i i urn vt $u
percussion rhythm accentuates Framp-
ton's inspired fingering.
The final side features Frampton in a
more pensive mood. "Lines on My Face"
tells of the tearful sorrow felt by a young
man as he realizes his lady, who he loved
dearly is gone forever (LMP). "There's so
many people, my family and friends, try
to make me smile till this heartache
mends" - his voice quakes and his
multi-fretted friends simply wail with
grief. I call out your name, there's no
answer
Stepping back from the brink of
emotional disaster in the nick of
timeFrampton picks up the pace with
"Do You Feel (Like I Do) Another sheer
rocker, Frampton closes the set leaving
one happy that for once at least your
money has been spent wisely. Frampton
again lets loose with the talkbox and the
audience screams with thunderous
approval. This is one LP that can
honestly be said to end too soon.
Peter Frampton Comes Alive, an
outstanding collection of some of the
best rock music to come from Wales in
years

Kyung Wha-Chung truly virtuostic
ByMARYOMWBt
Kyung-Wha Chung played a truly
virtuostic violin recital here last Thursday
night. Ms. Chung became known in the
United States in 1967 after winning the
Leventritt International Competition.
Since then she has concertized
throughout this country as well as in the
rest of the world. The violinist captured
her audience in Mendenhall Student
KYUNG-WHA CHUNG
Center with an exciting and intense
performance.
Ms. Chung's program, a traditional
one, began with Tartini's "Devil's Thrill"
Sonata. The four movement piece
allowed the violinist to demonstrate a
diversity of musical interpretation and
technique. From the lyrical first
movement to the sometimes grating
cadenza of the last, the piece took on its
programatic design which was inspired
by a dream of Tartini's involving the
devil. Ms Chung has a great stage
presence. Her body movements and
facial expressions reflected the essence
of the music she played.
The "Partita in D Minor" by J.S. Bach
was next on the program. The suite, for
unaccompanied violin, consists of five
dance movements: Allemande, Courante,
Sarabande, Gigue, and the final grand
Chaconne. One felt a sense of depth in
this piece generated by Ms. Chung's
subtle building of musical tension and
release.
Brahm's "Sonata in A Major, Op. 100"
began the second half of the recital It
was here that one began to notice the
pianist; the Brahm's requiring more from
him than had the Tartini. Throughout the
recital Samuel Sanders did a fine job. He
and Ms. Chung seemed well suited to
each other. Mr. Saunders kept in his place
as accompanist, adding to the soloist's

yet his pianistic abilities were not left
unnoticed.
After playing Szymanowski's
"Notturno e Tarantella, Op. 28. a rather
disappointing selection - not being of the
same musical standards as the rest of
her program - Ms. Chung returned to the
stage to play an encore, "Rondino in the

There will be an interview with

short, rather light piece was a nice

Ms Chung is certainly a rarity in the
musical world. In both technique and
musical sensitivity she excels Only
slight intonation problems and minor
technical errors interfered with the
beauty of her playing.

College apathy wave cited by APA chief
By STAN HOLLOWELL
Staff Writer
Dr. Theodore Newcomb, former
president of the American Psychological
Association, spoke on "Are Students or
Their Colleges Changing Wednesday
morning in the ECU nursing auditorium.
Basically, the individual college
student has not cnanged very much, said
Dr. Theodore Newcomb, who bases his
views on 40 years of research on college
students.
"If your grandfather were to come
back today he wouldn't understand all of
the gadgets around, but if you put him,
as an individual, in an American college
today he'd be right at home
College students as a group go
through waves, such as the activist wave
of the late 1950's and 1960's which is
now turning to a wave of apathy,
according to Dr. Newcomb. This
produces no basic change in the
students themselves, however.
College institutions as a whole have
not changed that much either. They are
now doing some things differently from
the past, but basically it's still the same.
The relationship between the student
body as a group and the college
institution is a complex one, according
to Dr. Newcomb.
"I don't think the student is aware of
the different inputs into the university
that the President has to deal with.
Industries making donations, the state
legislature and Governor, and the staff
and faculty are unfortunately higher on
the totem pole than the student. The
student is the last person the college
president has to worry about pleasing,
unfortunately, and therefore the student
has little chance of changing the
university
Dr. Newcomb rarely makes personal
speaking tours and has turned down
invitations from several large institutions.
"As chairman of the symposium
committee, I'm sure it was well worth the
money to bring Dr. Newcomb here said
Tim McCleod after the speech.
Women photography show opens in Joyner
"Women Look at Women an exhibit
of photographs of American women
taken by 30 women photographers during
the past 85 years, will be on display in
the lobby of ECU'S Joyner Library
through April 25.
A Library of Congress traveling
exhibit, "Women Look at Women" will
travel to the Pasadena, Texas, Public
Library after its ECU showing. No other
display has been scheduled in North
Carolina. It includes 150 photographs,
reflecting not only society's changing
perception of women since the turn of
the century, but provides an illustrated
history of photographic styles and
techniques.
The period from 1980 to 1920 is
represented by the work of Emma
Farnsworth and other romantic portrait-
urists. Social commentary, particularly
the life of rural women during the
Depression, is represented by Dorothea
Lange and Marion Post Wolcott.

Volunteers help fill
ECU office vacancies
When an East Carolina University
administrator lost his secretary and
couldn't hire a new one because of the
state government's employment freeze,
an ECU fraternity and their "little sisters
decided to help out.
"Word got around that I had lost my
secretary and couldn't replace her said
Dick Blake, a retired Air Trce Colonel
and the assistant to the Chancellor at
ECU
Then he received a call from James
Thompson, of Rocky Mount, president of
Kappa Alpha, one of the fraternities at
ECU. Thompson offered some volunteer
help from his fraternity's "little sisters a
group composed of the girl friends of the
fraternity brothers.
At first, five of the women signed up
but that number has been increasing
from day to day.
They arrive at different times for one
and two hour shifts said Blake.
"They answer the telephone, take
messages and type. They're a great
help
The administrator said the hiring
freeze Feb. 26 caught him by surprise.
His secretary was to leave March 5 and
he was in the process of interviewing
applicants for the job when the freeze
was announced. He immediately wrote to
the State Budget Office asking that an
exception to the hiring freeze be made
but his appeal was refused.
"I'm really very happy with the
students' help said Blake.
"They've turned what I thought would
be a difficult situation into a very
pleasing experience
DICK BLAKE, assistant to the chancellor at ECU, explains routine office work to Kay
Norris left of Salisbury and Kathy Myslinski of Jacksonville. The two ECU students
volunteered to help the administrator after he lost his secretary and couldn't replace
her due to the hiring freeze on state employees. ECU News Bureau photo.

ROCKY MOUNT, N.C. - Amtrak, the
nationwide operator of passenger trains
is urging the public to travel now, while
there is still plenty of space on the
trains, says H.R. Hartis, Amtrak ticket
agent here. To encourage pre-summer
travel, Amtrack has opened its unlimited
U.S.A. Rail Pass for use by anyone.
"Previously, the U.S.A. Rail Pass
was offered just to visitors from abroad,
but from March 1 to May 15, anyone in
this country may buy it Hartis
explained.
Here's how the U.S.A. Rail Pass
works: Passes are good for unlimited
coach travel on all Amtrak trains except
Metroliners and come in three types:
$150 for 14 days; $200 for 21 days and
$250 for 30 days. Children 2 through 11
pay one half the adult fare. Travel must
begin within 15 days of purchase and the
fares now offered will be effective for
passes sold through May 15, 1976.
The passes may be purchased at any
Amtrack station or ticket office; or
vouchers which may be exchanged for a
Pass, can be purchased through Amtrack
authorized travel agents.
Before each trip a U.S.A. Rail Pass
holder will need to obtain a ticket at an
Amtrack ticket office. Reservations are
required for all-reserved trains, and may
not be made prior to purchase of the
pass.
The U.S.A. Rail Pass represents a
real bargain for the traveler wishing to
make numerous extended trips or for
long-distance travel. For example,
Amtrak's coach fare from Rocky Mount to
San Francisco, via Washington,DC and
Chicago, is $329 round trip Thus, the
two-week $150 U.S.A. Rail Pass would
offer a saving of $179. Holders of a
30-day U.S.A. Rail Pass could visit
almost every region of the country for the
single $250 fare.
Other discounts available to Amtrak
travelers include the family plan. For
travel starting any day of the week except
Friday and Sunday, families may qualify
for the following discounts: Head of
family pays full fare; spouse and children
12 through 21 pay three-fourths of the
full fare; and children two through 11 pay
only three-eighths For example, a family
of four with children 8 years and 13 years
old, traveling from Rocky Mount to
Eller presentedAustin T. Bond award
Dr. Frank Eller, professor of science
education at ECU, was awarded the
annual Austin T. Bond Award for
distinguished service to science edu-
cation Friday.
The award, established in honor of a
former chairman of science education at
ECU, is given on the basis of an
individual's contributions to the field of
science education. This is the first year
the award has been given to an ECU
faculty member.
During his 18-year tenure at East
SAVE THIS!
Carolina, Dr. Eller has taught courses in
biology, chemistry, physics, science
education and photography. He is an
alumnus of Catawba College, with
advanced degrees from Columbia
University.
Before joining the ECU faculty, he
taught in the Mecklenburg Schools and
at Charlotte College, and was recognized
as an "outstanding science teacher1' by
the Miles Laboratories "Quiz Kid" radio
program.
His activities included a radio science
til? tlT Ar& A&k ??, ?
program series called "Uncle Frank's
Workshop" and a science-oriented
television series called "Down in Eller's
Cellar Dr. Eller was also engaged in
industry for several years, during which
he patented several significant devices in
textile machinery.
Disney World, would pay only $226 round
trip coach with the family plan, a saving
of $47 off the regular round trip fare.
Four trains serve Rocky Mount daily;
two northbound and two southbound.
The southbound Silver Meteor leaves
Rocky Mount at 1225 a.m. and the
southbound Champ,on leaves at 1125
p.m. Northbound the Champion stops at
1250 a.m. and the Silver Meteor at 220
a.m. Both trains offer first class sleeping
and accommodations as well as coaches
with reclining seats. Full dining and
lounge service is also available on both

Antique dealer lectures on chair anatomy
By FRANCBNE PERRY
ECU News Bureau
NEW BERN - The anatomy of the
chair through its evolution in colonial
America was the subject of a detailed
illustrated lecture by antique dealer Joe
Kindig III of York, Pa. at the eighth
annual Tyron Palace Symposium here
March 21-23.
Kindig was one of six experts who
addressed the 120 symposium partici-
pants on aspects of colonial life and
decorative arts. His presentation pre-
ceded a Monday evening dinner and
candlelight tour of the John Wright
Stanly House in the tryon Palace
Complex.
"Quite possibly prehistoric man tired
of squatting and standing, and
deliberately sat upon the nearest stone
whose top surface was about 17 inches
above ground, and the chair was thus
bom he said.
"Since the earliest times of
civilization, the chair has remained one
of the most important items in interior
furnishing
During the Middle Ages, the chair was
not just a piece of furniture but a symbol
of authority; it was a seat of ruling for
kings and justices and a place of honor
for learned teachers, said Kindig. Even in
the typical manor dwelling, the chair was
reserved for the lord, and all other
household members who were entitled to
sit usually sat upon benches.
"New England colonists retained this
medieval concept he noted. "The
average northeastern household possess-
ed only one or two chairs, with benches
making up the other seats.
"In the southern settlements, chairs
occurred more frequently; as many as 14
or 16 might have been found in one hall.
I have not been able to discover why this
should be the case
Illustrating with color slides, Kindig
pointed out that early American
chairs-the wainscot chair, the Brewster
or "Pilgrim" chair, the ladder-back chair
and the Cromwellian chair-were very like
similar chairs of the period in use in
England.
Early examples were not designed for
comfort, with their rigidly upright backs
and lack of padding. More than anything
else, the finest survivals of the 17th
century American exhibit the fine work of
the "joiner" and the "turner" important
craftsmen in the production of colonial
chairs.
"The first truly sophisticated chairs in
the American colonies were the verticle,
ornately carved pieces which featured
cane seats and backs, a design which
came from the Orient by way of
Portugal he said, notingthatthe English
counterparts of these early cane chairs
were broader than the American types, a
difference which endured throughout the
18th century also.
The cane inserts were later replaced
by padded leather upholstery. In the early
1700's the Queen Anne style developed, a
classic design with a padded balloon-
shaped seat, cabriole legs and curved
splat back.
The Queen Anne side chair's gradually
sloping back was a concession toward
comfort, as was the upholstered wing or
"easy" chair.
"The massive wing chair was a
practical item in the 18th century's drafty
houses said Kindig. The wing chair is a
good example of functional beauty; its
lush padded upholstery provided warmth
and its beautifully-turned stretchers

provided support.
As the 18th century progressed,
American chairs continued to resemble
English chairs, with notable trends
towards divergence. Similar in shape and
overall design to chairs in the mother
country, the chairs produced in America
tended to be simpler and less often
decorated with intricate surface carving
and veneer work.
American "schools" of chairmaking
were a result of the likelihood of water
damage to furniture imported by sea.
"American colonists, even those of
great wealth, tended to purchase their
furnishings locally said Kindig. "A chair
imported from Boston to Philadelphia
would be in great danger of water
damage; therefore after 1735 each
sizeable city fostered its own body of
chairmakers who tended to produce
similar products
A Boston Chippendale-style chair is
usually more delicately formed and lighter
in design than a similar Philadelphia
chair, yet both differ from English chairs
of the period. Even in the South, where
the influence of England's design styles
was stronger, there were noticeable
differences, he said.
"While some distinguishing char-
acteristics do indicate a chair's place of
origin, attribution of a surviving chair to
an individual chairmaker is dangerous;
styles and design ideas were repeated by
the leading cabinetmakers on both sides
of the Atlantic.
"They found inspiration in Chippen-
dale's 'Directory' and other illustrated
design books which were available
throughout Britain and in the colonies
Of whatever origin, certain qualities
appear in the best chairs, said Kindig.
"There is a harmony of curve and line,
seen in the crest rail, the sides of the
back and splat, the seat edge and the
legs. American chairs of the colonial
period are ornamented by certain stylistic
motifs of carving, such as the shell and
the acanthus leaf, and by such design
elements as ball-and-claw feet, 'C
scrolls, cyma curves, serpentining, and
gadrooned edges.
"While some of this carving is
two-dimensional and flat in appearance,
the products of the best chairmakers
possess a harmony between line and
surface ornamentation.
Kindig believes one of the finest
surviving late-colonial chairs, a piece in
the style now popularly known as the
"Martha Washington chair is the
Speaker's Chair in Independence Hall.
He pointed out the pattern of subdued
carving along the chair's wooden arm
supports, and its overall graceful and
dignified form. "In the Speaker's Chair is
visible the culmination of a developing
art in a developing nation. The
chairmakers and cabinetmakers of
colonial America became creative artists
in their success at combining the
beautiful with the functional, the artistic
with the natural

Roenker, Paradossi homer
Pirates sweep twinbill; streak at six games
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
East Carolina used a four-run second
inning in the first game and a nine-hit
attack in the second game to take a
doubleheader sweep over Atlantic
Christian Sunday at Harrington Field.
The Pirates, 5-1 winners in the
openers and 4-1 winners in the nightcap,
ran their winning streak to six games and
pushed their season record out to 12-3.
In the first game, ECU used five walks
by Bulldog starter Dick Weaver to score
four runs on two hits in the second and
glide to an easy 5-1 win.
Then in the nightcap, Pete Conaty
and Bob Feeney teamed up on a four-
hitter while Pete Paradossi and Ken
Gentry led the plate assault which led to
the 4-1 ECU win.
The opener began with neither team
scoring in the first, but in the second
ECU'S Joe Roenker walked to lead off the
inning. Sonny Wooten singled and
Macon Moye loaded the bases with none
out when Weaver walked him.
Glenn Card cleared the bases with a
double. Before the ACC coach could get
Weaver out of the game, he walked Rick
Koryda and Howard McCul lough to load
the bases and, after striking out Geoff
Beaston, walked Bryant to force across
Card with the inning's fourth run.
The remainder of the game, East
Carolina remained fairly tame as it scored
only one more run. That came when Joe
Roenker blasted a towering drive over the
left field fence for his third roundtripper
of the year.
A fter poor scrimmage
Meanwhile, ECU ace Dean Reavis was
limiting the Bulldogs to but three hits
with no walks. The only run off Reavis
was an unearned run in the fourth.Reavis'
performance lowered his ERA for the
season down to an amazing 0.51 in 35
innings of work this year. His record is
now 3-1.
In the second game, the Pirates did
not strike quite as rapidly as they had in
the opener, but they did strike more
powerfully and almost as decisively.
ECU took the lead in the first when
Charlie Stevens walked, stole second and
moved to third on a passed ball. Wooten
then lined a shot down the right field
foul line which scored Stevens. Wooten
advanced to second on a bobble by the
rightfielder, which also sent Roenker to
third, and Addison Bass walked to load
the bases with two out. The rally ended,
though, when Robert Brinley skied to
right.
In the second, ECU threatened with
men on first and third with two out, but
failed to score. Leading off that inning,
Bobby Supel sent AC'S leftfielder to the
fence for his fly ball.
ECU added a run in each of the next
two innings king a 3-1 lead as Atlantic
Christian so xi in the fourth.
In the th , Bass walked with two
out, stole second and scored on
Brinkley's double off the rightfield wall.
In the fourth, secondbaseman Paradossi
blasted a home run to left for a 3-1 lead.
The Bulldog's run came about when
ECU starter Pete Conaty walked the
leadoff batter and two hits followed.
Feeney came on to open the sixth in
favor of Conaty and blanked the Bulldogs
during his two inning stint to give Conaty
Purple-Gold Saturday
i i
Up until Saturday afternoon ECU
football coach Pat Dye was extremely
pleased with spring practice so far this
year. But after a dismal scrimmage this
past Saturday, Dye was not too cheerful.
"We looked terrible out there
commented Dye. "It was bad! It was a
practice typical of a team that is not
ready to play mentally
The Pirate team has now completed
13 of the 20 practices allowed, but Dye is
simply not satisfied with the team's
performance.
"I know these kids can play. But I
saw no improvement today And on the
whole, Dye had nothing good to say
about the scrimmage or about any
individual players.
"We played badly from the kicking
game right on down said Dye. "We did
everything that we can't do if we expect
to be a winner.
"It's hard to say whether there were
any bright spots he continued. "Some
of them probably played well, but I'm not
going to praise anyone until I see the
films"
The poor scrimmage came at a
particularly bad time considering the
Pirates are scheduled for the traditional
Purple-Gold game this Saturday. Dye is
still plagued by the positions vacated last
I in HM?m irMijimu M
year by graduation. The defensive tackle
spot previously held by Willie Bryant is
still open and no one has claimed the
strong safety position once held by
Bobby Myrick.
Offensively, the Pirates are in better
shape where it appears that Matt
Mul hoi land is taking the offensive tackle
spot and Randy Parrish is holding tight
to the guard position he started at during
the late stages of the season.
But as if the Pirate club doesn't have
enough problems, an injury during the
scrimmage will serve to hamper the team
more. A fumble resulted in a broken arm
to Tom Daub. The injury now leaves the
Pirates with only two fullbacks.
"I don't know who we're going to have
at fullback said Dye. "It's hard to do
anything with just two healthy ones
Looking ahead to this weekend's
Purple-Gold game, Dye commented on
this week's practices. "We'll practice hard
on both Monday and Tuesday, with a lot
of work on fundamentals. How hard we
go on Wednesday and Thursday, and
whether we take Friday off will depend
on what we do in the first two or three
days
The Purple-Gold scrimmage on
Saturday is scheduled for 8 p.m. in
Ficklen Stadium.
his third win of the season against no
losses. Conaty's ERA stands at 1.50 on
the year through 18 innings.
ECU added the game's final tally in
the sixth on a single and a stolen base
by Supel and a run-scoring single by
Paradossi. One of ACs three double
plays in the game ended the inning
without further damage.
For the game, Paradossi was the
hitting star. He went 3-for-4 at the plate,
including his home run, and he batted in
two runs. Gentry also contributed at the
plate for ECU as he had two hits in four
at bats
ECU's next contest will be against th
Citadel at Harrington Field on Wednes-
day. The Bulldogs are the defending
conference champions. The two teams
will begin play at 3 p.m.

ECU harriers disappointing

By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
If you were in Raleigh on Saturday at
the fourth annual Atlantic Coast Relays
and watched the performances of the
East Carolina track team, you would have
to think of Murphy's law. Murphy's law
states "whatever can go wrong, will go
wrong This line describes the Pirates
woes perfectly.
The Pirates started off fairly well in
the Relays as Sam Phillips placed sixth
in the 440 intermediate hurdles with a
time of 54.9. In the next event, the
Pirates were running in the two mile
relay. Keith Urguhart started off the race
with a good time and had the Pirates in
second position. Valdez Chavis and
Charles A very followed with fine legs and
ECU was in third place behind strong
Maryland and South Carolina going into
the anchor leg. But Jim Willett had a
disappointing 1:59.4 to anchor the
Pirates and Cornell was able to pass the
Pirates and end up third. East Carolina
finished fourth with a time of 7:49.0.
The bottom then began to fall out for
the Pirates. Carter Suggs, the favorite in
the 100 meter dash, pulled up lame near
the end of the race with a put led muscle
and placed third with a time oi 10.5. This
injury seemed to take the steam out of
the Pirates' confidence and the whole
team was down.
The fiasco continued in the 440 relay,
an event the Pirates were favored in. With
Suggs out, coach Bill Carson inserted
Boboy Franklin into the relay. Calvin
Alston started off the relay and handed
mmmmmmmn
off to Franklin. The two bobbied the
baton some and East Carolina found
itself in last place. East Carolina was still
in last place going into the anchor leg,
run by Al Washington. Washington
walked down two men and the Pirates
finished fourth in the relay with a time of
42.3, 1.4 seconds off their best of the
year run last week.
The run of bad luck continued in the
880 relay as the Pirates were one of the
favorites going into it. Alston again
started off the relay and again handed off
to Franklin. As Franklin started his run, a
Pembroke State sprinter knocked the
baton out of his hand and East Carolina
failed to place in the event.
in the spring medley relay, Al
Washington started off the race and
handed off to Maurice Huntley. They got
their legs tangled up and fell. Again lady
luck had fallen upon the Pirates in the
wrong fashion.
The Pirates failed to place in the mile
relay with a sub-par time.
The only other ECU performer to
place was George Jackson. Jackson
leaped 48' 9 12" in the triple for his
career best and the jump put him in
fourth place in the event. Carson cited
Jackscn for his efforts.
"George really put out today. He was
one of our bright spots
The Pirates still had some unsung
heroes in the face of defeat. Al
Washington had what Carson called "one
of the best 440 relay legs I've ever seen
to pull us back to fourth place in the
relay

After 17years
Starbuck-Shelley team broken up by Bradshaw
By KIM GORFIELD
Jo Jo Starbuck and Ken Shelley
have been skating partners for 17
years-longer than most marriages seem
to last these days. But wedding bells are
breaking up the championship duo
who've starred in the everpopular Ice
Capades for the past four years.
The blonde, blue-eyed Jo Jo, who
feadily admits she's as "all-American as
apple pie is hanging up her skates to
marry another all-American, pro football
star Terry Bradshaw, who led his
Pittsburgh Steelers to their second
consecutive Super Bowl championship.
Not that Jo Jo was ever a football
nut. She didn't even know who Bradshaw
was when he tried to date her two years
ago
"I thought he was just another guy
from Pittsburgh and figured that since
we'd be hitting the road in a couple of
dayswhy bother recalled the 24-year-
old skating star.
She didn't see the football hero again
for another year. In the interim, she
learned how famous he was, but what
really fascinated Jo Jo was hearing that
he'd written a book about religion.
"It was a kind of autobiography with
overtones of his Christian faith, and I'm
really into that she said. "So when we
played Pittsburgh again last September, I
called him
One week later, he asked her to marry
him. But when you're an Ice Capades
performer you're on the road 10 months
out of the year and Jo Jo had her doubts.
In fact, she'd taken a silent oath not
to get romantically involved until she was
ready to give up her professional career.
Undaunted, Bradshaw rented a private
plane and every Sunday night after the
football game, he'd fly to wherever she
was, with champagne and flowers in
hand The two spent Mondays together.
'We made a million years fit into 24
hours Jo Jo recalled. "We talked and
talked, about our philosophy of life and
our faith. And I think it brought us
together very quick'v
Three weeks after the whirlwind
courtship, Jo Jo finally said "yes
Women lose
The ECU women's tennis team played
their first match of the season this past
Friday, and dropped a close match to
North Carolina State University, 5-4.
ECU recorded two victories in singles
competition and two wins in the doubles
matches In the singles matches, Susan
Helmer of ECU defeated Carol Woodard,
6-0, 6-2, and Vicky Loose, also of ECU,
beat Margie Acker, 6-3, 4-6, 6-0.
Losing singles matches for ECU were
Dorcas Sunkel who dropped her match to
Elisha Jones, 6-4, 6-3, and Laura Dionis
losing to Peggy Smith, 7-5, 6-4. Kathy
Portwood lost Kathy Sizmoore of NCSU,
7-5, 6-4, and ECU player Delores Ryan
dropped her match to Cathy White, 3-6,
6-2, 6-2
In doubles, the Pirates teams of
Helmer and Loose beat Sizmoore and
Acker, 8-3. Also teaming up for ECU
were Marie Stewart and Dion s who
defeated Woodard and White of NCSU,
8-7. ECU lost the only other doubles
match of the afternoon when Jones and
Smith defeated Sunkel and Portwood,
8-4.
The Pirates' next match will be at Old
Dominion University on April 9.
mwmmmmMmmmmmmmmm
They'll be married this June and will live
on Terry's 400-acre ranch, near
Shreveport, Louisiana.
And what are Ken Shelley's plans now
that he's losing the girl he has been
skating with since both were seven and
made their debut on ice as snowflakes in
a school musical?
For 13 years, the two California-born
youngsters were inseparable-beginning
each day at 5, practicing until it was time
to go to school, then back on the ice at 3
p.m. for another two hours of practice.
"Then we'd eat dinner in the car on
the way to ballet or jazz classes and do
our homework by flashlight on the drive
back home Ken recounted.
There were times when they both
wanted to quit. Jo Jo, depressed at
missing out on school dances and
slumber parties; Ken, resenting his
brother going out on dates while he had
to be in bed by 9:30.
"But looking back, I think we gained
more than we lost Ken said. "When we
began to travel for competitions, we got
to meet people from different countries.
What an education that waslearning
about different peoples mores and
lifestyles
The duo went on to become
three-time winners of the U.S. Figure
Skating Pair Championships, twice
bronze medal winners in World
Championships, and the youngest pair
skaters (at 16) ever to represent the
United States at the Winter Olympics, in
1968. The '72 Olympics forced both to
drop out of Long Beach State College
while still in their junior year.
"I have a lot of friends graduating
from school now with Masters degrees
and Ph.D's, and they can't find work
Ken said. "And here I am with a very nice
job and very happy. I can always go back
and finish, I guess
Meanwhile, he says he will stay on
with Ice Capades as a solo performer, at
least for a couple of years. He admits
that there will be a void for a while,
probably for both of them, "but we knew
the day would eventually come
When he does eventually hang up his
skates, the former U.S. Men's Champion
would like to go into theatrical
production. Or teach history at college.
"Actually a skater can never really
give up the ice all the way he confided,
while Jo Jo nodded in agreement.
"You can make your career last as

long as you want to. When you get older,
you can go into character work and not
do the more physically demanding work
that we do now
Both consider themselves lucky,
because so many of their peers who put
as much time, effort and money into
skating as they did, never made it all the
way. Both also credit their religious faith
with affording them the strength to make
the sacrifices necessary for their
careers.

Liz White Gets Her Certification
East Carolina can be very proud of Liz White.
Liz White, a graduate student in the Sports Medicine program at ECU, has become
he first woman in the state of North Carolina to be certified as a trainer by the
National Athletic Trainers Association.
When one considers that Miss White is only one of 70 women throughout the
Jnited States to receive such an honor, the magnitude of the accomplishment is
nade that much greater.
Miss White's certification is also something for which the ECU Sports Medicine
Program can be proud. The ECU Sports Medicine Program is one of the finest, if not
he finest, in the state of North Carolina and is respected throughout the southeastern
Jnited States.
The program, headed by Rod Compton and assisted by Ronnie Barnes, has come
l long way since its inception several years back. And if you aren't sure of the caliber
x success of the program, or its importance to the athletes, just ask the athletes,
mey will surely tell you.
Getting back to Miss White, she came to ECU many years ago as a student, after
jlaying high school basketball for four years in Norfolk, Va. She stayed two years
lere her first stay before transferring to Florida State.
It was at Florida State that Miss White really began to make her strides at
Decoming a trainer. At Florida State, she also continued to play basketball while
working on a degree in Physical Education.
While taking courses in Physical Education at Florida State, and at ECU, she first
Decame interested in Sports Medicine, but it was not until she came to East Carolina
hat her interests and goals really began to lean in that direction.
At first Liz worked with the men's programs at ECU, but this past year she has
worked almost exclusively with the women's program.
Miss White has made her way up doing something which was normally restricted
:o men, that is at least until five years ago. Now, she has set a sort of model for
Dthers to follow and there are now two other women involved in the ECU Sports
Medicine Program, Vivian Johnston and Nancy Johnson.
Miss White is now near the end of her graduate studies at ECU and with her
unification she has many new opportunities left open to her. For the moment,
though, she and East Carolina's Sports Medicine Program can be very proud of the
strides they have made, both individually and as a program.
This writer has observed Miss White on several occasions on the job. Wherever
she goes she is respected for her training and abilities. This respect does not come to
Miss White so much because she is a woman, but more so, in this writer's mind,
because she is a professional in what she is doing.
In this case, the part reflects the quality of the whole. The students, athletes and
faculty should take pride in the ECU Sports Medicine Program-for it is not only one
Df the most overlooked departments on campus, but in the scope of athletics it is also
one of the most important.
SPRING PREVIEW FOR NEXT SEASON
This Saturday night at 8 o'clock, the East Carolina University football team will
hold its spring Purple-Gold scrimmage.
The scrimmage will break the ECU football team up in two teams for the final
scrimmage of the spring practice and this scrimmage should give the students and
ans of ECU football a chance to see what might develop next year.
There has been much optimism in practice this spring and the ECU team could
aasily be bigger and better than last year's 8-3 team, which recorded wins over North
Carolina and Virginia.
The game begins at 8 o'clock on Saturday and admission is free to the students
jpon presentation of ID. card and activity card. It should provide an exciting and
jntertaining evening of sport for all those who may want to catch a peak of what next
rear's team may look like

Ross Bohlken swam to a time of 3:10 to
fail to place in that event also.
