Recent campus break-ins
prompt police action
ByJACKLAIL
Staff Writer
As a result of a recent series of
break-ins at ECU the Directa of Campus
Security asked Mackenzie Security Inc. in
Greenville to give the officers polygraph
tests.
The tests were given to clear up any
speculation that ECU policemen may have
been involved in the theft of a stereo
system in Mendenhall, the attempted
break-in of a safe in the Student Supply
Store, or the four thefts of money from the
Dean of Women's office.
"I requested the SBI (State Bureau of
Investigation) to investigate the matter
said Joseph Calder, directa of campus
security. "But after three weeks they had
taken no action, so to keep this from
dragging out I had Mackenzie Security Inc.
in Greenville, do the polygraph tests.
"I told my policemen that if any were
involved they would be prosecuted to the
full extent of the law.
"All were tested except one who
resigned befae the tests were given to go
back to farming. I don't believe he was
involved in any way. He had only been here
since August and probably didn't know
where the safe was in the Student Supply
Stae a that the Dean of Women kept
money in her office.
"The polygraph operata asked specific
quest ions about each of the crimes and said
that none of the regular officers a the aie
reserve officer had knowledge of the
crimes.
The person a persais who broke into
the Dean of Women's office used a key but
the person a pasais who broke into the
Students Supply Stae and whoever stole
the stereo from Mendenhall may have had
a key a could have hidden in the building.
"We have no leads in any of these
cases. We have had stake outs on the
weekends of the Dean of Women's office
and hope the thief will fall into one of our
traps

Faculty-Senate discusses semester calendar
By DENNIS LEONARD
News Edita
The Faculty Senate met Tuesday
afternoon to deal with all unfinished and
new business.
Dr. Henry Ferrell, ECU History
Department professa, repated ai the
recent Faculty-Senate Assembly held in
Chapel Hill.
A resolution was passed at the
Assembly calling fa a 16 percent pay raise
fa all faculty members in the UNC system.
A pay raise rally will be held May 1 and
Dr. Michael Bassman moved that the ECU
Faculty-Senate accept the assembly
resolution and fully suppat the rally. The
resolution carried the Faculty Senate by a
unanimous majaity.
Dr. Edgar Hooks, chairman of the
Calendar Committee, repated ai the
projected academic calendars for the
following upcoming academic years; 1977-
1978, 1978-1979, 1979-1980, 1980-1981.
The calendar repat by Dr. Hooks
brought about serious debate on the flea
by several interested professas.
Tim Sullivan, president of the SGA,
interrupted the namal meeting and asked
permissioi to speak on behalf of the
students on the calendar onntrnvprov
"The SGA passed a resolution Monday
night opposed to the earlier starting
semester date. The semester system aids
students because it lets us out earlier and I
have appointed a four student committee to
look at the calendar said Sullivan.
Accading to Sullivan students holding
agricultural and beach retreat jobs would
find it difficult to come back to school at the
proposed early dates.
Dr. Henry Ferrell introduced an amend-
ment which called fa the acceptance erf the
first semester calendar fa the Fall of 1977.
The purpose of the amendment was to
provide a period of examination after the
first semester is completed to determine
how successful a faulty the calendar was
and to use the following years as times of
adjustment.
In other action undertaken by the
Senate, the Biology Department and the
Counseling Center codes were accepted.
A department's particular code defines
the operative functions of that individual
department.
The Political Science Department's
operative code was rejected by the Senate
on the grounds of vagueness.

"Moris Udall was matally wounded

Eamon commented that Carter's
strength makes Hubert Humphrey's
chances fa the Democratic nomination
more difficult.
"Carter would be a stronger nomi-

Humphrey said Eamon.
Eamon said that Carter's strength in
the primary was due to the weakness of his
opponents.
Accading to Eamon, a CBS-New Yak

opponents in his positions on four to five of
the maja issues.
In an interview Moiday Eamoi said
aie of Carter's strongest points in his

Eamoi nOed Carter's firm opposition
to the commercial supersonic transpot

ment.
"As governo of Geagia, Carter was
very foceful in environmental controls at a

Bylaws already outdated
After almost a year of bickering about new Publications
By-laws, the student legislature will more than likely approve a
brand new set of by-laws to govern "certain" campus media next
Monday.
Please note the "certain" mentioned above for the brand new
by-laws that were nearly a year in the making are obsolete before
they are even approved by the legislature. The new by-laws while
offering governing rules and regulations for four student
publications conspicuously omit two other student voices - the
Ebony Herald and WECU.
The current by-laws, that are by and large well written will be
used only to regulate Fountainhead, Buccaneer, Rebel and The
Key.
As best as we can understand the Ebony Herald and WECU are
both bonafide forms of campus media, just like the other four
publications that are named in the by-laws.
Both WECU and the Ebony Herald operate off of student funds
just like the other four publications. And all four are ultimately
under the control of the SGA and are aimed primarily at serving the
student body like the other four publications.
Yet, fa some reasons, the brand new by-laws, that were so long
in the making, do not include these two organizations.
WHY?
When a legislator asked Speaker of the Legislature Ricky Price
why the two were not included in the by-laws at Monday's
legislative session, Price responded by pointing out that those two
organizations had always operated separately from Publications.
That is true. But precedent is no reason to continue anything.
It would appear to only make good sense to us that a
Publications Board should represent all forms of campus
media-not just a certain few. There are both advantages and
disadvantages fa a publication a radio station to operate
independently of any direct control other than that of the SGA.
Yet Fountainhead, Rebel, Buccaneer and The Key are required
to operate under the Pub Board which in turn operates directly
under the SGA. Meanwhile, no one has that much direct control
over the Ebony Herald and WECU, which are often faced to fend
fa themselves when they go to the legislature fa money.
A straig Pub Board should have direct control over all campus
media and should wak as their direct overseer and a liaisoi
between those aganizatiois and the SGA.
The SGA aeated the Ebony Herald fa sane reasai last year
and now they have placed it under the control of the Office of
M inaity Affairs. Why the paper can't go under the same control as
the other campus publications is a mystery to us.
Then there is the case of WECU which in the past has been
faced to come hat in hand to the SGA fa funding without the
benefit of a controlling regulation board to intercede in its behalf .In
the case of WECU, falling under Pub Board would be a definite
plus.
The legislature last Monday voted to postpone final passage of
the by-laws until this week. Hopefully a few will at least take a
seoond look at Article X, Sections A through D which list the four
publications that will fall under the Pub Board and will ask why
the Ebony Herald and WECU don't fall into those same categaies.

Birth control Idea
A province government in India recently introduced that
country's first compulsay sterilization law and it might be the
basis of an idea fa other nations that simply can't control their
spiraling birth rates by other means.
The India proposal would make it punishable by both a fine a
jail term fa any oouple having mae than two children. The
proposed law would affect some 2,000,000 couples in that India
state alone. If it beoomes a national law in India there is simply no
telling how many oouples would be affected .
Under the proposed law, oouples with three a mae children
where the husband is under 55 and the wife under 45 would face six
months in prison a fines totalling about $57.00 if they refused
vasectomies a tubectanies.
While this is without a doubt the ultimate in government
interference in a citizens life style, the proposal can't be dismissed
without some hard consideration in light of the fact that many
under-developing nations can't control their spiraling populations.
The U.S. currently has a birth rate per family of about 2
children, give a take a fraction of a child. This country meanwhile
has an eoonony that can handle this small growth rate.
But, there are nations that have averages of five children plus
per country, and they lack the considerable resources that the U.S.
has to accommodate its smaller growth rate.
Mexico is a good example. The Mexican population is currently
growing at a tremendous pace with a population doubling rate that
the U.S. could not handle.
Conventional forms of birth control have been tried in Mexico,
and other nations with high birth rates. But, none have even
dented the growing problem.
We are not advocating that the India law be approved
universally-at least not just yet.
But, it is an idea that will no doubt have to be given serious
oonsideratioi in the next few years as the "have not nations"
continue to have a tremendous problem just coping with their own
expanding population.

In recent newspapers
Gay alliance hits
lack of coverage
To Fountainhead:
On April 2-4, the first annual South-
eastern Gay Conference took place in
Chapel Hill, N.C with ever 300 in
attendance, representing 11 states. It was
a unique accomplishment, of which North
Carolina gays are justifiably proud.
However, Fountainhead has refused to
print any news of the Conference, citing
the reason that "we have done enough on
the gay issue' this year Reporter Pat
Coyle stated that we were becoming ' The
Gay Newsletter and "There were no
gays on campus until we did those articles,
then 99 percent of the campus came out
Sure, Pat.
While the Fountainhead is to be
commended for the excellent series of
articles by Larry Slaughter which it ran
several monthsago, we protest the attitude
that there is a gay "quota Even if this
were an acceptable rationale, has Fountain
head devoted 10 percent of its space this
year to gay-related issues? (And 10 percent
is the most conservative estimate of gays in
the overall population - it is usually thought
to be higher among a oollege community.)
Incidentally, as this letter was being
prepared , we noticed an article in
Fountainhead on the Supreme Court
decision-looks like the quote had just
enough room fa just one more negative
article.
We also protest the highly unprofes-
sional manner in which staff member Pat
Coyle related the news of the refusal.
Simple, business-like explanation of
"editorial discretion" was not enough; Ms.
Coyle, for some unknown reason seemed to
feel compelled to resort to the afore-
mentioned insulting, inaccurate, and dis-
courteous remarks, hanging up before any
answer could be made. We expected better
from Fountainhead staff.
We are sending this letter because we
feel that Fountainhead should be aware
that there is not some inert mass of matter
that can be labeled "gay" and dismissed
perfunctorily, but that gay people (and
those who support the fight for gay civil
rights) are living, breathing, participating
members of the ECU community. Sign us,
People who support fairness for gays,

Student seeks
return of dog
To Fountainhead:
On Tuesday, April 13,1976 at 8:001 let
my dog out for a few minutes. I live on
Holly Street. He didn't come back.
On Wednesday morning I phoned the
Greenville Animal Shelter, who told me
that someone had phoned late Tuesday
afternoon from Scott Dormitory. The caller
announced that he had found a dog, a red
cocker Spaniel with Tag no. 153 and would
like to know the owner. The Animal Shelter
gave him my name and phone, and he said
he would contact me, but he did not
identify himself or leave his location.
I approached Scott Dorm, put two
reward posters on every floor, talked to the
resident, who was very helpful, spotted ads
on WRQR, WOOW, WNCT, and WECU ail
week, and advertised in the Reflector. No
response.

Rebel
To Fountainhead:
I wish to express my sincere appreci-
ation to the editors of The Rebel for the
sensational spot beside the centerfold
which my poetry ws given in the latest
issue of the magazine. Certainly nothing
has ever helped my poetry to create more
impact than having it juxtaposed with a
fold-out of a naked girl on her knees, but
after all, isn't the human body the "dimax
of composition "?
Of course, most women like to be prime
rib, and I am no exception. I am most
honored to have a piece of my endeavor put
in the center of attention. Like the girl in
the fold-out I can not hide my pride-only
grin and bare it!

It is now two weeks later and I am
heartbroken. I love my dog (Melvin)
beyond measure. My intent for writing the
Fountainhead is this:
1. This is the second dog I've "lost" in
Greenville, (is there a "dog ring"?)
2.1 will reward anyone in Soott with $10 for
information leading to my dog.
3. I will reward $100 to the finder a
returner of my dog - no questions asked.
4.1 f you borrowed ' my dog for an Easter
gift I WILL BUY YOU A COCKER
SPANIEL IF YOU GIVE MINE BACK no
questions asked. Call me 758-5481.
5. I promise you, I w io revenge; I only
want my dog.
If you haven't had this experience
please be very careful. It will try to rob you
of compassion. I am sad.
If you live in Greenville and own a dog,
treat him like a son a daughter.
Thank you fa this opportunity.

had previously endorsed it.
Eamon did say that Carter favors a
bigger role for private enterprise than do
some of the other candidates.
Eamon also noted that Carter outlined a
specific medical care program last week.
When questioned about Carter's tend-
ency to be fuzzy on the issues, Eamon
stated that he believed Carter had taken as
specific a stand on the issues as had the
other candidates, with the possible ex-
ception of Senator Jackson.
"One reason for Carter's being accused
of fuzziness on the issue is that he takes
what might be considered a very reason-
able position but which is really a very
complex position on a very complex
question said Eamon.
'For example, while he is personally
opposed to bussing, he opposes a
Constitutional amendment on the sub-
ject added Eamon.

Eamon said that Carter is becoming
more specific now due to pressure from the
media.
Concerning Carter's "ethnic purity"
statement of last month, Eamon said that
he did not believe it would greatly
influence the black voters.
"Carter should have used the term
character said Eamon. "it was not a
good choice of words.
"Carter will undoubtedly get a large
number of black votes. He is anything but a
racist
Eamon stated that Carter's being a
Southerner oould be advantageous.
"If Carter receives the Democratic
nomination he oould hold most of the
traditional Democratic votes outside the
South, but at the same time carry a lot of
the South in a ace against Ford said
Eamon.
Carter is presently leading Fad 51
percent to 36 percent in the South,
according to Eamon.
Referring to Carter's strong religious
beliefs, Eamon said that Carter might do
well with the conservative religious
movements which have not voted Demo-
cratic in previous national elections.
"Unless Carter oomes across as a
fanatic, his statements on religion would
help him rather than hurt him aooording

Brehm competes for award
By KERRY SHERRILL
Staff Writer
Anita Brehm, professor in the school of
education, will be competing fa the N.C.
Volunteer of the Year Award, April 30, at
the executive mansion in Raleigh.
Brehm was recently named by the
REAL Crisis Center of Greenville as their

Approximately 1700 persons chosen
from various volunteer organizations have
been invited by Mrs. James Holshouser to
this reception in honor of National
Volunteer Week, April 26,30.
The N.C. Office of Citizen Participation
sponsors the annual event.
Marge Baney, director of the Greenville
REAL Crisis Center, nominated Brehm.
"She represents all the phases of the
kinds of volunteers we have here. Mrs.
Brehm has worked on all levels and is the
kind of person everyone likes said
Baney.
Brehm began training as a REAL
volunteer during the summer of 1974.
"When I first came to ECU, I had 150
advisees and several of them talked to me
about their problems. It gave me great
satisfaction when one of them told me I had
helped said Brehm.
"I was aware of REAL in fact, one of
my advisees was a charter member of
REAL. I wanted to get involved, so I
joined
After going through a bO-hour training
session, she began working four hours a
week answering phones.
Brehm also served as secretary-
treasurer for the REAL Board of Directors.
This year Brehm is chairman of the
board of directors and steering committee.
"The function of the board of directors
is to coordinate various activities such as
fund-raising added Brehm.
The N.C. Drug Authority funds half of
our money but we must raise the rest.
"I hope I win the award because the
publicity would really help our fund-raising
efforts added Brehm.

Greenville has a liberated license bureau
By ALICE SIMMONS
Staff Writer
Greenville's Driver's License Division
office on East Tenth Street extension looks
average enough on the outside. Most every
county seat has such an office. But not
every License Division comes equipped
with a female testing officer.
One of the handful of women in this
field of work in eastern North Carolina,
Ms. Cris Massey administers tests, both
written and on-the-road, to license-seekers
in Pitt County.
Massey claims that she derives satis-
faction from her job because she is "not
stuck at a desk all day. "I'm in and out
from the building to the car; so I don't get
restless she said.
While it is not unusual to find women in
this field in the metropolitan areas of
Raleigh and Charlotte, Ms.Massey is one
of four females working with driver's
license testing in the eastern districts of
this state. However, she has been spared
most of the expected hassles from both the
public and her co-workers.
"In my two years of work at the License
Division here in Greenville says Ms.
Massey, "I have never gotten any flack
from the people who come in for tests. Men
have been no problem at all to me during
road tests, and employees here in the office
are really good to work with
Sitting behind the nameplate reading
"P. C. Massey she isamusedat some of
the older folks who reply "Yes, sir ' and
"No, sir" to her questions. It is not
unusual to hear them exclaim, "You're a
woman when she stands up.
Massey has seen significant changes in
state driving tests throughout the years.
She believes the available handbooks make
the multiple choice tests virtually impossi-
ble to fail since study aids are provided.
Massey is accustomed to reading
questions aloud to persons unable to read
and write, who in turn indicate their chosen
answers orally.
Back in the early sixties, Massey
attended ECU as elementary and primary
education major. After a stint in the U.S.
Army, she worked in Raleigh, then
returned to Greenville where she took her
present position.
As for the future, she would like to
eventually open a licensed kindergarten. In
preparation for her plans, she is back at
East Carolina attending night school.
Questioned on the subject of marriage,
Massey smiled quizzically. "I don't have
time to ge narried. Besides, I was once
told it would be hard to find somebody who
would put up with me
Her lunch break interview ended, P.C.
Massey returns to her desk, ready to serve
the citizens of Greenville.
Beach season has arrived
"MEN have been no problem at all, and employees here in the oft ice are really good to
work with says Cris Massey.
Summer swimmers should savor safety
By KIM JOHNSON
Staff Writer
Warm weather is finally here! We can
hardly wait to get out of classes Fridays
and head for the beach.
So now is the time to catch up on some
very important facts about water safety
that we may have forgotten since last
Spring.
Where to swim is the first safety point
to consider
Obviously, a supervised area is always
best. No matter how good a swimmer you
might be, swimming in a lifeguarded area
is the greatest assurance of safety.
Unfortunately, most North Carolina
beaches are not protected by lifeguards.
In such a case, you should avoid
swimming alone. But make sure a capable
swimmer is near. Your 80-year-old grand-
mother won't help much if you're
drowning!
You should always make a preliminary
i
SHARKS are not tne only hazards on the beach
m
survey of the area where you'll be
swimming before you dive in. Watch for
exceptionally strong currents, weedy spots
and, certainly before you go plunging head
first through a wave, make sure the water
is deep enough. Broken necks really aren't
much fun.
A second factor to consider is when to
swim.
Contrary to popular belief, it is not
necessary to wait two hours after eating
before swimming. Nevertheless, a full
stomach does interfere with respiration
and any form of strenuous activity after a
heavy meal is not advisable.
Also, swimming during electrical
storms or even rain storms accompanied by
lightning could cause serious complica-
tions like electroouoo
Cramps are anoiher aspect of water
safety that should be noted.
The main point concerning cramps
stressed by most water safety manuals is
not to panic. The idea that most swimming
deaths are results of cramps is highly
exaggerated. There are simple ways of
handling cramps while swimming that can
be found in any water safety manual
However, diving into extremely cold
water is an open invitation to cramps.
Many swimming injuries and deaths
occur because people don't know their
physical swimming limitations.
Swimming endurance depends, first of
all. on individual physical fitness. Accord-
ing to swimming instructor and coach. Ray
Scharf, swimmers too often overexert
themselves.
"Don t be foolish and extend yourself
beyond your capabilities Scharf said
when asked to comment on highlights of
water safety
If people would look ahead and think.
they wouldn't get themselves in precarious
situatia
mm
Pointers to remember when surfing,
boating, or skiing are: (1) know the area
you'll be in so as not to run into logs or
other types of obstructions in the water, (2)
watch fa near-by swimmers; if your surf
board flips up and hits someone, it's your
liability, (3) keep your gear in the best
possible condition and repair.
According to Scharf, the ocean is the
most dangerous place to swim. "Beach
worshippers" need good knowledge of
basic water safety rules.
Most people who have drowned, had
no intention of drowning that day when
they took off fa the beach said Scharf.
They were just careless
He added that Nath Carolina beaches
are extremely treacherous.
WNCT-TV, channel nine, will feature a
series of water safety programs this
summer, conducted by Scharf.
How about an
Ail-American
funeral?
(CPS)lf you are an American Indian,
celebrating the American Bicentennial is
like "celebrating your own funeral said
the directa of the Center fa American
Indian Law at the University of Oklahoma.
In a speech given in San Francisco,
Dr. Jerry Williams Muskrat said that the
U.S. Constitution has failed to protect the
rights of Indians a preserve the sover-
eignty of Indian tribes.
The American Indian, said Muskrat,
has little to celebrate. I would just like
people to remember that 100 years ago
Americans practicing genocide and exploi-
tation said the professa of law.

wet
By KENT JOHNSON
While visiting the University of Georgia
(U Ga.) during our break I discovered
what they have that is sadly lacking at
ECU this spring, a fad.
Through the past years of streaking,
bobby socks, and goldfish swallowing,
ECU students did not discredit their alma
mater by ignoring new fads. Why should
this year be different? ECU is standing
passively L ' while other institutions vent
their spring fever in creatively productive
new ways.
The wet T-shirt banana-eating beauty
contest that this reporter observed in a
Georgia night club would be an asset to
spring events here at ECU.
The contest consists of daring damsels
competing for the grand prize of a beer keg
by wearing a wet T-shirt and taking turns
eating banana's creatively and sensuously
for the appreciative audience. The banana-
eater creating the most bedlam in the
audience wins the keg, along with a large
following of fans.
ECU should not let themselves be out
done by "Georgia
We are probably more creative and at
least as drunk as they are. To start a new
fad we only need student participation, and
the inspiration, which the FOUNTAIN-
HEAD has never been short on.
Listed here are inspiring fad proposals
which would add to spring activities.
Watermelon Wrestling. This event is
saved until the end of parties. It is a good
chance to vent frustrations without serious
injury.
Jock Strap Raids. Screaming foul
mouthed females converge on Jones,
Ayoock, and Belk demanding jock straps
and sexual satisfaction.
Greased Bear Wrestling. A starved
bear iscovered with used motor oil and led
into Marty's. The bear is then enraged by
not being allowed to leave.
Goldfish Balancing. This event finds
Fraternities and Sororities oompeting to
find the greatest number of goldfish that
can be balanced on the protuding parts of
their bodies. No hands please.
Kerosene Chugging. Fraternities com-
pete to see the amount of kerosene that can
be downed in an hour. Contestants who
"get lit" will be disqualified.
Streaker Stuffing. With this event we
discover how many nude bodies will fit into
a phone booth, a Volkswagen, a room in
Fletcher, and the mens room at the
Rathskeller.
Tear Gassing and Rock Throwing. This
would have been a good idea had it not
been exhausted at Halloween.
Loitering. This pastime is already
enjoyed by some Greenville folk, but isn't
it time the campus population caught up
with the boys down at the pool hall?
Top-popping. has been scientifi-
cally proven that with the proper methods,

ENTERTAINMENT
'Rebel's' central theme is hope
By PHILLIP ARLINGTON
At the risk of hyperbole and historical
arrogance, the twentieth century, more
than any preceding period, poses immense
difficulties for the creative artist. The
reasons for this are complex and numer-
ous The polarities of human experience
are certainly part of the problem. It is a
question which rears its head out of the
implacable exigencies embedded in the
modern psyche. The poet must confront
the paradoxical image of the beast
wrestling with the angel.
It must be admitted that history tends
to assume a dialectic. Oftentimes, artists
become preoccupied with one or the other
sides of the paradox. In previous issues of
the Rebel, the beast was predominant, and
the poetry and prose of those years were,
necessarily, nihilistic and antagonistic,
were focused on the bizarre and the
estranged, the ludicrous and the surreal.
That sort of artistic perspective, while not
dead, is on the wane, necessarily on the
wane; and what the reader is assured he
will find in the current issue of the Rebel is
what its editor, Mr. Rollins, sees as a
search fa constancy" emerging out of
the temporal anxiety of contemporary
existence, a new found "optimism" which,
nonetheless, must continue to struggle
with the same forces of chaos and
destruction as its predecessors.
A central theme which runs throughout
much of the work in this current issue is
one of hope: an uneasy alliance which
desires to find itself redeemed in the colors
and textures of a world and a humanity
fallen and continuing to fall into the
darkening seas from which the artist
strives to draw forth his promise. The
ephebesof the past decade were interested
in staring into the crumpled and twisted
remains that were the all too brutal results
of an inflated and unhealthy worship of
idealism; the new perspective, if "rW jt
may be called, the perspective this rent
issue of the Rebel wishes to repress it, is
an attempt on the artist's part to regain his
senses, to place a refurbished faith in the
power of art's language to embody the
ineffable rather than belittle it; to evoke
the mystery rather than deny its validity.
Some of the prose bears out this
observation. Rollins' own, "A College
Story presents us with a character
"pulled in two directions Jess is our
oontemporary writer: bored with the
ostentation of the academes, yet, invaria-
bly drawn to them; fascinated with the
Marxist ideal of the nobility of the "simple
folk" in a small southern college town. Its
focus is on the shattering of an innocence
masked as the sensitively urbane, an
innocence that turns out to be, after the
encounter with the prostitute and the
betrayal by his friend, born of ignorance. It
is, in short, a story with the accent on the
moral crisis of a young man reminiscent of
James Joyoe's "Araby" but by no means
quite as oompressed. Rollins is, primarily,
a poet; as such, his prose siyle is
dominated by the adjective rather than the
verb. This makes for a slowly unfolding
narrative which, unless the reader is
interested in all the literary name-dropping
or the inside expose of the nuances of the
intellectual elite, he may wish had been left
out altogether. There is, however, a
quickened pace once the characters have
decided to visit a house of black prostitutes
and there are brilliant flashes of descrip-
tion that reveal a highly developed poetic
style of narrative: With the little bit of
light from the lamp down the hall I could
make out a dark form sleeping on the bed.
The room was soft with sleepThe room
was alive with her breathingA glove of
moonlight lay on her shoulder.
Other prose works worthy of note are
ArchieGastor's" A Small Man" and Susan
Bitner's "Tyger, Tyger Gastor's piece,
like Rollins, deals with the sting of loss and
the trial of recovery but with just the right
touch of irony. Written in the colloquial
diction that congeals the narrative's style
with the setting, Gastor (who, by the way,
has appeared in many Rebels in the past
and is hardly making his "debut")
chronicles Shorty Briley's attempt to
replace his lost sense of worth (symbolized
in the death of his dog, Prettygirl, for
which he blames himself) by appearing to
capture, barehanded, a wild bobcat. The
ironic thrust is at the " man-jacks who do
not realize that the cat is caught in one of
Shorty's traps, and a "small man"
becomes large in eyes of his fellows largely
through trickery and Shorty's cleverness.
Gastor's concern is not so much to elevate
Shorty as it is to diminish and obliquely
criticize the sensation-seeking lust of
Shorty's peers.
Bitner's "Tyger, Tyger" won best prize
for fiction and, admittedly, it is a tightly
structured dramatic piece. It turns upon an
allusion to Blake's poem of the same title,
but the real power of the story is to be
found in its ending. There are, however,
lapses into melodrama; the poem and the
hasty scribblings of a trapped and
frightened girl are the cliched trapping of
many of the finest soap operas the
networks have to offer. But his story, like
the previous two, again emphasizes the
theme of loss and search for recovery
which obviously made this story a
candidate for selection.
M uch of the poetry revolves around this
same theme. There are, broadly speaking,
two types of poetic inclination, that which
seeks beauty of the word, and that which
seeks its power and ruth. A sophist a a
mystic would argue ihat these attributes
are inseparable, but it must be admitted
that only rarely, even in the greatest of
poets, do we find all three fused into poetic
form. The strongest new voice to emerge in
this issue is, as the introduction indicates,
the work of S. Philip Miles. Miles' "suicide
and sylvia plath is rich in the images that
lace the peripheries of contemporary
hysteria. But in Miles the terror is muted,
compressed, an obliqueness that accom-
plishes resonance. Miles embodies the
tortured consciousness of the modern
artist, personified in Plath, which sees the
sun "trailing like a tear" and has dreams
which "onoe hissed to us as snakes
His "This Poem" is typical of the kind of
subjects endemic to oontemporary poetry.
This poem speaks of itself as a poem; tries
to turn the poetic process into a poem in its
own right:
my fragile crafts tie
easily
to the brittle teeth of time
each sound is cauterized
in bright bitter screams
and my words
sprout sudden sweat;
awkward new disease
of the sun.
Other than Miles, there are some
equally strong and beautiful poems. L.M.
Rosenberg's "To a Sick Friend" is a
sardonic portrait of human mutability,
flawed perhaps by some heavily pedestrian
images. David Bosnick's" This night" is a
poem carried almost wholly by a private
emotion translated into an equally private
and delicate matrix of images:
I will run my tongue to your ear
and will whisper,
as the wind taps at sand
and sand at sea.
Theresa Speight's "The CIimax of Compo-
sition" echoes Miles' "This Poem
though the treatments are obviously
different, particularly in tone. Richard
Wayne Smith's "Dianne" is also notable
for its delicate rendering of the destructive
force of love.
These are but a few examples of the
many works which are characteristic of
what the editors feel is a new awareness in
our modern poets. Their works are, in each
instance, accompanied by the graphics and
artwork which complement if not surpass,
in some cases, those of last year's Rebel.
The work of Matt Smartt continues to be of
interest, and all should take note of the
work of Lewis Cherry on page 13 entitled
"Dream Stylus
Overall, this year's Rebel appears less
controversial than its predecessors. Little
in the issue will offend. Fa some that will
be its virtue; fa others, its failure. The
polemical pose of any new edita will seek
to go one-up on his successas. But it
remains to reflect on the validity of the
renewed optimism of these modern poets.
If the period of nihilism and experimen-
talism in literature is spawning a reaction-
ary wave of hope and renewed faith in the
power of art to evoke, delight, and
communicate, we can oily wcnder at the
next react ion. I should hate to see calm
turn to lethargy, beauty to sentimental
pap. The artist has responsibilities that
preclude exercises in "good taste" and the
evasions of the darkness and decay that
clings to the underbelly of the undisturbed
stone. It may be that the future of art will
see not just continued actions and
reactions, a scenario of offenses to and
defenses of the proper function of art in our
society. Perhaps the future will bring relief
to the intransigence; perhaps the rough
beast may learn to sleep beside the
necessary angel; perhaps this will be the
Supreme Fiction which we were, all along,
being prepared fa.

BLUEGRASS FESTIVA L PLA NNED
If bluegrass music is your bag, then
May 1 is a date you don't want to faget.
On this day, the SpeciaJ Concerts Commit-

bluegrass is all about-stomping your feet,
dapping your hands, jumping, scratching,
and hollering.
Bluegrass is the pure music of love and
real America. It grew out of the
Anglo-American folk song tradition that
the Scottish, Irish, and English settlers
brought with them to the hills of
Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, and the
Carol inas, the songs of their ancestas. The
songs were modified by Negro blues and a
heavy emphasis from religious and gospel
music and in time, Nathern popular music
and jazz. Wakers migrating fron the rural
South to Nathern factaies took bluegrass
along with them. It remains a music fa
purists in a time when much of country
music is becoming big business and the
country itself is vanishing.

MISSION MOUNTAIN WOOD BAND

With the advent of hootenannies a few
years ago, the popularity of the five-string
banjo inaeased. The banjo is the "back-
bone" of Wuegrase music. Consequently,
folk groups and others began using
non-electric instruments such as the banjo,
fiddle, flat-top guitar, mandolin, and the
upright "doghouse" bass.
Bluegrass music appeals to people from
the whole spedrunvfrom the right, the
left, and the center The music is not
oomrrwrdal folk, a oommerdal oountry,
but the pure music of real America,
meaning it is not "hillbilly" a "oountry

banjo-that's bluegrass.

ENTERTAINMENT
'W. C. Fields' tonight
W.C. FIELDS IS BACK
Rarely does a performance begin and
end with a standing ovation. MURRAY
SOLOMAN, impersonator of W.C.
FIELDS, has been achieving this unusual
feat in many of the places that he has been
performing. In an evening of unmatched
humor, warmth, and insight, W.C.
Fl ELDS, one of the great comic geniuses of
all times, comes to life in this unique
presentation. Solomon's performance is
the re-creation of a masterful humorist in
authentic costume and make-up, delivering
his wit and wisdom and providing a rare
glimpse of Field's, the man.
W.C. FIELDS in all of his glory will
appear in his many roles as drinker, doctor,
lawyer, bartender, carnival-show barker,
and even asa temperance lecture. The full
show consists of blackouts, special light-
ing, recorded tape parts, and several
costume changes along with the monolo-
gues. The performance is concluded with a
question and answer period.
Solomon says that he strongly identifies
with Fields because he hated children,
loved to drink, and "he didn't play
games In preparation for the act,
Solomon spends four hours putting on
makeup in order to age thirty years and
become the actual W.C. FIELDS.
"AN EVENING WITH W.C. FIELDS'
is a full evening program which incorpor-
ates some of the classic comedy material
that helped establish Field's international
reputation, as well as material drawn from
his private life. The result is an entertain-
ing glimpse of one of show business' most
interesting and complex men. MURRAY
SOLOMON brings his performance to
Mendenhall Student Center Theatre on
Thursday, April 29, at 8:00 p.m. Admission

ECU Biology professors study Pamlico River
By KIM JOHNSON
Staff Writer
Eastern North Carolina's Pamlioo River
has a major problem-oxygen depletion.
Two ECU biology professors are
currently conducting studies which seek
explanations and solutions to the decrea-
sing amounts of oxygen in the river.
Dr. Graham J. Davis and Dr. Mark
Brinson. with the assistance of ECU
biology graduate student Tom Vicars, are
now studying the causes and long-term
effects of oxygen depletion in the Pamlico
ary.
The Water Resources Research Insti-
(WRRI) of the University of North
olina is funding the research.
According to Davis, oxygen depletion
primarily affects bottom animals such as
clams and the micro-organisms in the
sediment.
No extensive fish kills have been
reported so far, Davis said, but that
T
possibility exists in the future if the
depletion of oxygen is not halted.
According to Davis, salt water coming
into the estuary from the Pamlioo Sound
and fresh water flowing in from the Tar
River are not mixing properly.
Due to the low winds blowing over the
estuary, the two types of water are
becoming stratified, Davis said.
In other words, fresh water is remain-
ing on top and salt water is staying at the
bottom of the estuary.
If the wind were blowing stronger, the
two would mix and, in doing so, more
oxygen would be mixed into the water as a
whole.
Since oxygen is not oeing mixed into
the water, the micro-organisms on the
bottom of the estuary are using up the
oxygen for their own respiration process,
Davis said.
So far. the two professors have been
closely monitoring the oxygen oonosntra-
tion to determine in detail what areas of the
estuary are affected most seriously.
We use an oxygen analyzer which is a
portable instrument sensitive to oxygen
changes that we can let down to different
levels of the water and determine by
reading the accompanying meter, how
much oxygen is in the water at the different
levels.
According to Davis, the amount of
oxygen concentration is determined by one
part oxygen per one million parts water.
We are oonoerned with the possibility
of an industry locating on the river. Davis
said.
An industry would pour more food stuff
into the estuary in its waste material that
oould be used by the micro-organisms in
their respiration process, thus increasing
the depletion of oxygen.
This summer's study will focus on
whether additional food poured into the
estuary will, in fact, increase deoxygena-
tion.
A detailed analysis of food use by
micro-organisms will be on the summer
agenda also, Davis said.
WRRI will sponsor the research for
another year.
Davis will oonduct the study this
summer while Brinson teaches at the
University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill

Sociologists prepare paternal report
By FRANCEINE PERRY
ECU News Bureau
Wishful reminiscing about married lite
before the first child's birth and going out
alone with the wife are examined as
"ooping" mechanisms employed by many
first-time fathers in a research report by
ECU sociologists Richard Gilman and
David Knox.
The report, "Coping with Fatherhood:
The First Year appears in the spring
issue of the journal Child Psychiatry and
Human Development, and discusses the
results of a recent survey of new fathers
undertaken by Drs. Gilman and Knox.
"A declining birth rate and the
emergence of the National Organization for
Nonparents indicate an increasing conoern
for the negative effect children have on
one's personal and marital happiness
said the researchers.
"Previous studies on the impact of
children on marital happiness have yielded
contradictory findings. Using a ooping
model for first-time fathers, this article
suggests one possible explanation for these
i noon si st end es: Differences in findings on
parenthood crisis can be explained by
different ways parents cope with such
potential crisis
Gilman and Knox decided to concen-
trate on new fathers as parents, thus
reflecting "an increased cultural emphasis
on the role-sharing of child-rearing
responsibilities by modern husbands.
"With the father's increased partici-
pation, the importance of his ooping with
the baby becomes paramount the report
said.
Gilman and Knox began their study
with two seemingly useful "coping
devioes in mind: fantasizing about pre-
baby days and the "holiday" method-
gang out with the wife fora movie, a
restaurant dinner a a drive, without the
baby.
The researchers assumed that both
methods would be found to be successful
means of ooping with the new stresses of
fatherhood, but they rejected their
hypothesis that fantasy is helpful, after
surveying results of fathers' question-
naires.
"Fantasy should improve the hus-
band's happiness by allowing him to
instantly replace' a aying baby and a
complaining wife with pleasant thoughts of
the past says the Gilman-Knox report.
"This mental review of happier times
should encourage the perspective that the
aying baby days' will soon be over and
the oouple can then return to a more
natural' home life
However, the survey results indicated
that the fathers who resort to fantasy,
those who stated that they wished they
oould return to the time before the baby
was born, often tended to be partners in
unhappy marriages.
Gilman and Knox did find reinfaoe-
ment fa their theay that taking holidays
away from the baby contributes to marital
harmony, and they were surprised to
discover that nearly half of the fathers
surveyed go out with their wives as often,
a more often, than befae the baby was
ban.
"Continued social life was shown to
have desirable consequenoes as a ooping
mechanism said the sociologists. They
found that frequency of a couple's outings
together is positively associated with
expressions of marital happiness: 91
percent of the fathers who said they
maintain their pre-baby social life repated
their marriages as "better than average
but oily 78 percent of those fathers who
desaibed their social life as restrided by
the baby repated happy marriages.
"The impatance of holidays can be
seen in that babies have the capacity to
interrupt those patterns of marital inter-
action that are essential to keep positive
feelings flowing in a relationship con-
duded Gilman and Knox
"A oouple with a new baby might be
well advised to schedule, on a frequent
basis, a sitter to care fa their baby while
they go out alone and care fa their
relatiaiship
To test their two hypotheses, Drs.
Gilman and Knox surveyed 95 white
first-time fathers of legitimate babies ban
in the Pitt County Memaial Hospital
between April, 1973 and March, 1974.
Although the final study was limited to
fathers of the white race, representing
primarily educated and higher-income
groups, a small sampling of initial
questionnaires returned by black fathers
suggested that blacks are "significantly
mae successful in adapting to the aisis of
first-time fatherhood
"Some of the strongest associations of
being black are those chc i
desaibe extended family parti i
child care Gilman and Knox not"
Among these qualities an '? quenl
baby care by the father, outside help in the
home after maher and cf-ild retu from
the hospital, having cared for babies before
becoming a father and a dose relationship
between the new father and hi life's
parents.
A high propation of the nev. black
fathers repated successful adj isti it to
the baby and frequent outings with their
wives.
Anaher group noted by Gil mar and
Knox as notably happy in their marriages
since birth of the new child were
"non-Praestants a group which In-
cluded Roman Catholics and Unitarians as
well as fathers who desaibed themselves
as agnosticatheist, a members of non-
Protestant persuasions.

By STEVE WHEELER
Staff Writer
After playing bridesmaid to William
and Mary fa the past decade, East
Carolina'strack team will attempt to knock
the Indians off the top spot this week in the
Southern Conference Track and Field
Championships being held in Davidson,
N.C.
The Pirates will have 28 performers
entered in 16 events at the championships.
Some men will be entered in as many as
four events. The only events not entered in
fa the Pirates are the pole vault and
distance events.
A big m tor the Pirates to beat
Indians will be the resignatiai of
William and Mary coach John Randolph.
East Caroline) as neve, beaten Randolph,
who will be going to the U S. Military
Academy at the end of this season.
Injuries have played a biy part in the
Pirates season so far. There have been as
many as 15 perfamers on the injury list
this year. But coach Bill Carson thinks the
Pirates will be in good shape fa the
championships.
"All of our guys are back now and we
feel we are in top shape as of now. We have
been waking hard fa the past two weeks
and we stayed home during the Penn
Relays just to practice more.
East Carolina perfamers are amaig
the favaites in many events such as the
hurdles, springs, relays, and in the field
events.
In the 120 yard high hurdles, Marvin
Rankins has run 13.9 while Sam Phillips
has registered a 14.0. In the 440
intermediate hurdles, Phillips has run a
54.7 while Bill White has a 55.1 to his
credit.
In the sprints, the Pirates should have
some of the best in conference with Carter
Suggs, Larry Austin, Calvin Alston and
Donnie Mack leading the way. Suggs and
Alston have registered 9.6s in the 100
meters dash while running the event only
once each during the regular season
Austin and Mack have been injured all
season but should be factas in the meet
this weekend.
The 200 meters has been Alston's event
all year as the diminutive freshman has set
a new ECU varsity recad by running a
21.0 at South Carolina. Suggs has run the
event only once and has a 21.65 to his
aedit.
Charley Moss(485) and James Freman
(48.6) have led the Pirates in the 400
meters all season but will be pushed by
Ben Dunkenfield and Robert Franklin.

The ECU tennis team lost to Atlantic
Chrialian College, 7-2, Tuesday, and will
carry a 7-11 overall record and 2-4
conference record into the Southern
Conference Tennis Championships today,
tomarow and Saturday in Richmond, Va.
Mitch Pergerson takes the Pirates' best
recad in singles matches to Richmond.
Pergerson, a fifth flight player, holds a
10-5 slate on the year and has a 3-3
conference recad.
ECU coach Neal Peterson has been
impressed with Pergerson's play all year.
Mitch has been a great addition to our
squad this year says Peterson. "I'm
looking fa him to help us throughout the
tournament
Tom Durfee was 9-9 fa the season and
2-4 in the conferenoe while playing in the
first flight.
?'Tom came around fa us, especially
near the end of the season said Peterson.
'I think he will do something fa us this
week. He has shown he is capable of
pulling off an upset
Randy Bailey, Doug Getsinger, Jim
Ratliff, and Bob Neff will be the other
Pirates competing in the angles competi-
tioi.
Bailey is 7-10 on the year, Getsinger is
6-11. Ratliff is 6-12 and Neff is 5-10.
In the doubles matches, Getsinger and
Neff, Durfee and Bailey, and Ratliff and
Mark Callaway saw the most action during
the year
Getsinger and Neff in the second flight
are 5-10 overall, Durfee and Bailey, first
flight perfamers, are 6-10, and Ratliff and
Callaway stand at 3-4 at number three
doubles.
Accading to Peterson, Davidson is the
best team on paper but will have trouble
this weekend. "In my opinion Appala-
chian St. and Furrnan are going to be the
teams to beat Peterson said. "Both of
these teams are tough to handle when
playing on hard surfaces. Citadel should
finish fourth and Richmond looks like the
best bet to finish fifth. I think we will fight
it out with William and Mary fa sixth
place
"A sixth place finish fa this team
would be quite an accomplishment said
Petason. "The top five teams are real
strong and we are about even with William
and Mary as far as talent gees

LA ST YEA R'SMVP- Carter Suggs is recovered from a recent injury and will be trying to
repeat as MVP in this weekend's SC Track and Field Championships at Davidson.
Richmond drops ECU, 3-2,
ECU stands20-7 for year
mam
A tenth-inning walk with the bases
loaded pushed across the winning run as
the University of Richmond dropped ECU,
3-2, in Richmond on Moxtey.
It was ECU's second loss of the year to
the Spiders and dropped its recad to 7-6 in
the conferenoe. The Pirates' overall recad
is 20-7.
The loss was the fourth loss of the year
fa ECU in which the margin of decision
was one run. All four losses were to
conference opponents.
ECU fell behind after the third, when
Richmond scaed a pair of runs on a home
run by Mike Walton, but came back to tie
the game in the fifth on a solo home run by
third-baseman Bobby Supel
The blast was Supel's third of the year,
as well as his third home run in the last two
games. Unfatunateiy, though, it was not a
winning blow.
The game went into extra innings, even
though both teams threatened in the sixth
and seventh innings.
ECU did manage ten hits, but stranded
11 baserunners-a downfall fa the Pirates
in many of their losses this year.
In the tenth ECU could not scae and
Richmond quickly loaded the bases with
mmmmmmmmmmtmmmmmaammmmammm
one out on an erra by Hick Kayda, a
single by Waitai, and an intentioiai pass
to Al Bowles.
The free pass to Bowles wasn't a pcor
move since Bowles had two hits in the
game and the walk would set up a face at
any base, but en this occasion ECU came
out on the shat end of the stick.
Reliever Joe Heavner, who had been
pitching since the sixth just was not able to
get the ball over the plate and walked Bob
Natzinger on four pitches to scae the
winning run.
Four players contributed two hits
apiece fa ECU. They were Supel, Seve
Bryant, Joe Rcenker and Kayda. Un-
fatunateiy, too few of the hits led to runs
as Spider ace Dave Brooks ran his recad to
5-0 with the canplete game.
Fa the seasai, Richmond's recad
went to 20-12 and they finished the
conferenoe with a 9-5 tally. At the same
time, the loss eliminated ECU from any
faint hopes it may have had fa a first a
second-place finish.
ECU'S next game is tonight in Wilson
against Atlantic Christian. Game time will
be 7:30.

Time-Out
By JOHN EVANS
Sports Editor
New Direction In Basketball Program
On Tuesday ECU announced the signing of two basketball recruits to grants-in-aid.
The signings brought to three the number of players ECU has signed this year, plus one
new player who will be eligible to play after transferring from another school this year.
The two players signed by ECU were Jim Ramsey, a guard from Cary, N.C and Herb
Krusen, a swing forward from Silver Spring, Maryland.
Both of these players are looked at by the ECU coaching staff as first-rate recruits and
players that ECU is indeed fortunate to get. Ramsey was named Metro Player -of-the-Year
in the Raleigh area this past season and Krusen is considered one of the top five players in
the state of Maryland.
Ramsey drew considerable attention in the Holiday Festival tournament in Raleigh
when he broke the single game tournament scoring record with a 39 point performance.
The record had been held by Phil Fad, a pretty good basketball player in his own right.
Krusen's major attribute, in addition to scoring and strong rebounding, is his touch
from the free-throw line. At Northwood High School in Silver Spring, Krusen set a school
record by shooting 96 percent from the free throw line and was named to the second-team
All-Metro squad for the Washington, D.C. area.
At least on paper it appears the ECU basketball program has signed a pair of
high-class top-notch recruits which can really help the team in the future.
BUT THE BIG ONES GOT AWAY
These signings may have given coach Dave Pattern some relief for the loss of ECU'S
two most sought after recruits, Albert Spencer of Washington, N.C. and John Virgil of
Elm City. The ECU recruiting team lost on both of these players, as Spencer went to Oral
Roberts University and Virgil signed Monday morning with North Carolina.
So it seems that ECU may have let two big fishes get away, but got basically the same
type ball players, a forward and a guard, in Ramsey and Krusen.
One must not forget the other two newcomers that Patton has stored away, either.
Both Don Whitaker, a guard transfer from Louisburg, and Greg Corneliue, a 6-10 transfer
who sat out this past season, are well-groomed players that oould help the ECU program.
Like the two most recent recruits, they come from winning programs.
THERE ARE SOME SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET THOUGH
Some new blood may be what the ECU team needs after a disappointing 11-15 season
last year. And perhaps the turnaround does not end with merely the new recruits. It
seems to.go deeper than that.
Since last season ended, there have been many moves and ?occurrences which seem
to point towards a new look for the Pirate basketball team in 1976-77.
First of all, ECU guardBuzzyBraman quit school and went home to Silver Spring, Md.
where he will enter the University of Maryland next fall. Apparently Braman, who would
have been a senior next year, saw that he was being phased out of the program by the
abundance of young guard talent beingbrought in by Patton, most recently in the form of
Louis Crosby and Billy Dineen. It must be noted that Braman quit school before any of the
recent signings had been announced.
Next an old face returned to the ECU scene. That would be Kenny Edmonds, another
guard. Edmonds played in most of the games for ECU during the 1974-75 season, when
the Pirates posted a 19-9 record, but had some trouble with his grades last year and sat
out the first two quarters of the academic year before returning to school this quarter.
Edmonds has been playing in pick-up games this spring and, if he has another year of
eligibility remaining, his return to the ECU team would be beneficial, especially in the
leadership he could give to Crosby, Dineen and the two recent guard recruits.
The final occurrencesinee last season's finale is clouded by a shroud of mystery, but
oould most certainly be the most crucial change of all.
Before Easter break, Patton silently dismissed three of last year's players from the
team, apparently in an attempt to clean up some of the team's attitude problems.
This writer must hedge a little here. Even though he knows the names of the
individuals, this writer can see no necessity in naming the three players, except to say
that two of the players were probable starters on next year's squad.
At the same time we are not going to either condemn or condone the actions of ooach
Patton except to say we have confidence in him that he did what he felt best fa the
program and that he did it only after careful consideration.
SO WHA T DOES ALL THIS LEA VE FOR NEXT YEAR
What lies in the future of ECU basketball then? First of all, with three of last year's
top eight players no longer with the team and two others, Earl Garner and Al Edwards,
graduating it would seem there will definitely be an abundance of new, and young, talent
on next year s squad.
Witn four new reauits, Edmonds return, and the promising futures of Dineen and
Uosby, it seems there is a nucleus of youth to build with. Add to this the few players who
are left after the recent dismissals and maybe there will be a "new look and better

Golfer of the Year
Rob Weiton has been selected as
FOUNTAINHEAD'sAthlete-of-the-Year in
Golf.
With the maja part of the golf schedule
over with-and only one tournament late in
May remaining-Welton's second-plaoe
finish in the Southern Conference tourna-
ment ranks as the top accompliahment by
the Pirate golfer this year.
In addition, Weiton finished w'th the
second best stroke average on the ECU
team behind Steve Ridge. Weiton's stroke
average was 76.1 while Ridge averaged
75.5 strokes per round.
Weiton, however, proved to be more
oonsistent fa the Pirates ova the final
three tournaments, after shooting a
disappointing 233 taal in the Pinehurst
Invitational to open the season.
Weiton's top perfamance came in the
ecent confaence championship held in
Flaence, S.C. Raying the tough CouqU
Dlub of South Carolina course, the senia
jdfer shot 75-71-78 to finish in second with

medalist. In addition, Weiton placed three
strokes ahead of his nearest teammate,

In its first year in existence, the ECU

be making positive strides and two meets
this week oould continue the improvement.

We went to Murray, Ky. and finished
ninth out of ten teams, but the girls all
improved their times. In my opinion that is
a successful showing for us. We hope by
going to Florida that it will improve our
times, too, although we aren't necessarily
expecting to finish high
The hosting Florida State squad has
nine qualifiers fa the national champion-
ships among its 13 member squad, but
Miss Arrants said that she really was not
that worried about her team trying to
oompete with FSU.
"We want to do well, sure said
Arrants. "But more important is that we all
make an improvement and learn something
that we can carry over to future meets and
next year
Being the first year for women's track
at ECU, Arrants said that there had been
many problems to overcome. One of those
problems she mentioned was that East
Carolina was the only major school in North
Carolina with a women's program in track.
Therefore, the ECU team has been faced
to travel to other areas fa oompetition.

ratings are made rrwre cloudy due
to the fact that several teams still have a
number of league games to play, as a result
of postponements earlier in the season.
The Citadel, fa example, has four games
left to play, including its game with ECU.
Presently in third-place in the con-
ference is Richmond. The Spiders climbed
to 9-5 in the conference as a result of their
3-2 win over ECU Richmond is only one of
two teams in the league to complete all its
scheduled games.
William and Mary stands at 5-5 after
beating VMI and stands a half game in
back of ECU fa fourth place.
After the Indians, Davidson at 5-8,
Appalachian at 4-8, and VMI at 2-12,
follow.
That means a win against the Citadel is
all-impatant fa the Pirates if a first-
division finish is desired. And even then
the Pirates have to hope that William and
Mary loses at least two of its four
remaining games.

"We are the only women's team in
Nath Carolina and that has posed a big
problem said Arrants. "Being the only
school, we have had to travel a long way to
get oompetition and the traveling has put
an added strain on the girls because they
aren't used to it
Miss Arrants also said that the team
had to overoome the fact that it only had
three weeks to prepare fa its season. She
said this was perhaps the biggest setback
of all fa the team's development.
"I really feel that we did not have
enough time to get ready befae the season
started and that this hurt us more than
anything else. Hopefully, that won't
happen next year and we hope that some of
the other schools in North Carolina will
start programs so that we don't have to
travel so far.
"Despite everything, though, it has
been a pretty good season so far. All the
girls have had great attitudes and I think
that's commendable. They have really
stuck to it and worked at making
improvements and the results should show
up in the improved times they have been
turning in
It seems that at least in the first year of
its existence that women's track has been
successful fa the ECU program. Mae
importantly, it appears the groundwork has
been laid for future growth by the
program.

Conference Tournament Previews
Tennis, track teams determine Cup finish
This weekend when the ECU tennis and
track teams travel to the conference
championships, at Richmond and Davidson,
it could mean more than simply a quest fa
championships for the two squads.
The reason being ECU is ranked third
in the race for the Southern Conference
Commissioner's Cup, which is symbolic of
the conference's overall athletic champ-
ions.
The Pirates, who are currently ranked
behind William and Mary and Appalachian
State, have won the Cup two years in a
row, but could be hard-pressed to pull it
out this year.
Including the results of last week's
conference golf tournament; William and
Mary is first with 52 points, Appalachian
State is second with 51 points and East
Carolina is third with 50 points. Following
Supel on hot streak
Few players experience the kind of
hitting tear that ECU third-baseman Bobby
Supel has put together over the last two
games.
During the last two games against VMI
and Richmond Supel not only hit for power,
but also for average and speed.
In the last two games Supel collected
five hits in nine at bats for .556 average,
while at the same time he hit two doubles
and three home runs and drove in five
runs.
Against VMI, Supel was three-for-four
and collected a double and a pair of home
runs. He also batted across four runs in
hat game.
He continued his feat at Richmond
with a two-fa-four day with a double and a
lome run, plus a single run batted in.
All that has made up fa the slow start
theECU sophonae began the season with.
Pria to the VMI game, Supel had
played in but seven of the 25 ECU games,
n those seven games, he had collected
only two hits in 10 at bat.
team this
eiving her
made the
Doubtlessly, ECU coach George
Williams is glad that the Snow Hill native
ga a chance to play and, accading to
assistant ooach Monte Little, Supel's hot
bat is something else.
"I haven't seen a ha streak iike this in
a college player in a long time said Little.
Little admits that the third-baseman
still has some things to brush up on, but
certainly with the incumbent third-base-
man Geoff Beaston graduating at the end
of this year, Supel's recent streak brings
high hopes fa the future.
"Bobby has a la of ability that has to
be refined said Little, "but people will
hear a la from him in the future
Supel's streak has pushed his average
up to .368 fa the year and he ranks second
on the team in home runs and batting
average. In addition, he has the highest
slugging percentage on the team (official at
bats into taal bases) with an inaedible
.947 rating.
IITTING TEAR-Bobby Supel s recent hot streak has raised his batting average to .368
its year.
these three schools are Richmond (43
points), VMI (42.5 points), Furman (36.5
points), the Citadel (29 points) and
Davidson (18 points).
And with only baseball, tennis and
track left to oount in the standings, time is
shat fa ECU.
The task of winning a third straight
Canmissioner' s Cup is made harder by the
fact that William and Mary is favaed to
win the track championships and Appala-
chian is favored to take the tennis
championships. ECU is picked fa second
in the track championships, but it is
unlikely that it will finish any higher than
sixth in tennis.
However, the ECU baseball team,
despite its disappointing conference re-
cad, may prove to be the savia fa the
ECU athletic teams. At present, the ECU
keystoners are 7-6 in the conference and
could finish as high as second. At the same
time, both William and Mary and
Appalachian State seem headed fa
second-division finishes. How far down
they finish in the second division and how
high up ECU finishes is the key to the
baseball points, though, since Furman has
virtually clinched the baseball a own
With ASU and William and Mary
favaed to win the tennis and track titles,
the key there is fa ECU to finish at least
one place ahead of Appalachian in track
and at least one place ahead of William and
Mary in tennis. Bah feats are within reach
of the Pirate teams.
If that should occur, it would give ECU
a chance to take the Cup by finishing far
enough ahead of the two schools in
baseball. It would be an outside chance,
but a chance none the less.
Therefae, thae is a la more at stake
this weekend at Davidsoi and Richmond
than merely a good track and tennis
showing. At stake is the possibility of a
third straight Commissioner's Cup fa
ECU.
Wrobel leads Intramural golf
Mike Wrobel of Scat Dam fired a
one-over par 73 to take the first-round lead
in the ECU Intramural Golf champion-
ships.
Wrobel turned the 6,500 yard Ayden
Country Club course in 36-37 to take a
two-stroke lead over two aher golfers in a
taal field of 120 golfers.
In second behind Wrobel were Bobby
Christainsen and Soott McDowell. Bah
golfers fired rounds of 38-37 over the
Ayden course. Fa the day 21 golfers sha
80 a better to keep it tight going into this
aftanoon' s final 18-hofe round.
Other golfers shoaing 80 a better

80-Sonny Crata, Stewart Cloer, Leland
Parker, Mike Reynolds, Bill Landreth,
John Rodman, Harold Rush and Joe
Schuyer.
Kappa Alpha was the individual team
leader after the first round with a team
scae of 312 fa its tcp four golfers.
The 120 goifas was a recad turnout fa
the ECU Intramural golf championships
and the large numbers caused sevaal
backups. Nonetheless, two-thirds of the
starting field remained in ocntentioi after
the opening day.
The day's highest round was 132, but
the golfer who turned such a tremendous
feat wished na to be mentioned.
