THIS ISSUE - 16 PAGES EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA Fountainhead Serving the East Carolina Community for over 50 years CIRCULA TION 8,500 VOL. 52, NO. 10 14 OCTOBER 1976 mm nmrnmt m Million mmmm Committee sparks Ficklen drive By DENNIS FOSTER Staff Writer The fund drive fa the expan- sion of ECU's Ficklen Stadium is underway and going well, accord- ing to Dr. Clinton Prewett, campus chairman of the Ficklen Stadium Expansion Campaign. The drive, originally set to begin in late August, was delayed because the campaign's commit- tee had difficulty finding a chairman for the Pitt County, Greenville area, said Cliff Moore, campaign treasurer and vice- chancellor of Business Affairs at ECU. "Ray Minges was contacted and he agreed to head the area campaign after completing other obligations said Moore. "The tentative date for fulfill- ment of the goal of $2.5 million, January 1. 1977. is virtually impossible now due to the delay said Moore. "The drive, now two weeks old, has netted $300,000 in cash and pledges according to Moore. The drive has also received services other than financial aid from the community. "All of the architectural and planning work has been comple- ted free of charge said Prewett. "The expansion is necessary now because of the continuing rise in the cost of labor mater- ials said Moore. "When the first section of seating at Ficklen was construc- ted in 1971, the cost was $250,000. This included the press box "One year later, the same number of seats without the press box costs $600,000. The proposed expansion, which will be approxi- mately the same number of seats as are now in the stadium, will cost $2.5 million According to Moore, schedul- ing major football teams in Ficklen Stadium now would be a financial disaster. Atlantic Coast Conference teams require $45,000 assured for a football game said Moore. "We don't have enough seats to make that much About 9,000 seats in the present stadium are used by non-student paying customers, according to Moore. "We made $80,000 last year at N.C. State and approximately $100,000 this year according to Moore. "We could make twice that much if we could schedule major area teams in Greenville said Moore. Increased revenues isn't the only reason for expanding the stadium. "What we are trying to do in athletics at ECU is to create a concept of quality coaches and players in the athletic department ana atnietesasquality studentsat See FICKLEN, page 3. j THIS ARTISTS CONCEPTION illustrates the proposed Ficklen Stadium expansion that will almost double its seating capacity. Homecoming committee OKs entertainment funds Campaign head praises Carter By DAVID NASH SGA Correspondent The Homecoming Steering Committee met in an emergency meeting yesterday to approve SGA President Tim Sullivan's proposal to provide free addition- al on-campus entertainment for Homecoming weekend. "I, along with the SGA, feel there is a need for more entertain- ment said Sullivan. The proposal presented fa the third time, was made in an ef fat to keep students on campus Halloween weekend in ader to avoid disturbances in the down- town area. The proposal states that the SGA will delegate funds, approx- ERROR The headline fa Tuesday's article on the claim filed by Michael Martin against the SGA and the university was misleading. As the article indicated, lawyers representing Martin and the SGA waked out a settlement and submitted it befae a Nath Carolina In- dustrial Commissioi (NCIC) hearing. Therefae, the NCIC did not in effect "rule" against the SGA. m imately $5,000, according to Sullivan, upon approval by the legislature, to a sub-committee of the Homecoming Committee to bring additional entertainment to the campus fa Halloween week- end. The entertainment is' weak accading to Sullivan, referring to Charlie Rich and The Count Basie Orchestra. "The purpose of this is two-fold; one to bring entertain- ment to the campus, and to provide entertainment fa stu- dents who do not wish to go downtown said Sullivan. The location of the concert would be handled by the adminis- tration; the concert would last until the downtown nightclubs closed. "We've gotten to the situation where the Student Union is trying to cut out competition added Sullivan. "We are looking at it as a service, not as a profit-making venture "Some of you are more interested in competition than alleviating the problem down- town stated Greenville Maya Percy Cox, in suppat of Sullivan. "I would appreciate it if you would help Tim (Sullivan) on this proposal. We have to wary about downtown and the campus concluded Cox. The vote passed 11 -2 after much debate. Dean Rudolph Alexander vot- ed against the proposal Accading to Alexander, there fmmmmmmmem has never been an attraction Homecoming week-end which drew mae than 2,000 Barry Robinson, Student Union President, also voted against the proposal because it would be very hard to get a name act this late and "it will cost a hell of a lot of money The vote was later changed to a unanimous one in suppat of the proposal. The sub-committee is com- prised of the SGA President and Vice-President, a representative each of MRC and WRC, the Student Union President, and Dean Rudolph Alexander. Sullivan is presently attempt- ing to contract STYX fa the concert. By LARRY LIEBERMAN Staff Writer Jimmy Carter's N.C. Cam- paign Manager, Joel McCleary of Asheville, said Tuesday night in Mendenhall Student Center that the biggest obstacle faang Carter is the McCarthy facta. McLeary stated the liberal Democratic vote might be split by Demoaats who feel Carter is too conservative. Another problem the Carter faces face is that Americans have a difficult time, psychologically, ousting an incumbent, said McCleary. "Contrary to what most peo- ple believe, Carter does not have the majaity of his suppat fran wanen said McCleary. "Polls show that women are suppating Gerald Fad "Also the strongest people in the Carter camp are not the young people but the older folks from the Depression said McClea- ry This hurts us because we spent $612 million to get the young people registered to vote McCleary spoke fa about half an hour and took questions fa an hour. About 35 persons attended. McCleary said the maja issue of Carter's campaign is econo- mics. He said the campaign is developing into one of the dirtiest political fights yet. He stated the blame fa the vindictiveness in the debates does not lie with Carter. "The problem Carter is hav- ing now is that when he went after the liberal vote, he seemed to lose ground with his conserva- tive backing and now he has to come back and regain suppat said McCleary. McCleary said in closing that if the Demoaats lose this election then it will be 16 years befae they can get another chance at the White House. Cheech 7?

Positions open for legislators By DAVID NASH SGA Correspondent Stuc'ent Government Associ- ation (SGA) elections for unfilled form legislator posts will be held Oct. 22,1976, according to Denise Violette, chairperson of the Screening and Appointment Com- mittee. "This is the first time elect- ions of this type have been held by the SGA according to Violette. Elections are being held, rather than appointments made, so that students can have more voice in the use of their SGA funds. "This way, the students can say, Yes, I elected him "We're hoping more people will come out (for election into the posts) said Violette. The Screenings and Appoint- ments Committee plans to distri- bute fliers in the five dormitories (Fletcher, Belk, Greene, Umstead FICKLEIM I Continued from page 1.1 ECU said Prewett. "When people start compar- ing our athletic program with the likes of Georgia Tech and South Carolina, then they will begin to compare the academic quality of the schools said Prewett. "It's been my observation that athletics, not academics, attract people said Moore. "Therefore, increased exposure through athletics will attract student who would have ordinari- ly gone to Carolina or State according to Moore. Greenville is the regional, commercialand governmental cap- ital for the eastern part of the state and has a high school football stadium, said Prewett. "We aren't necessarily em- phasizing athletics, but this school deserves these kinds of facilities according to Prewett. During a radio interview early in October, ECU football coach Pat Dye said that expansion of the stadium would help the students at ECU, and the region in general, because of commerce. The eastern part of the state, as well as the athletic program, would be assisted, he said. "I believe there are enough people in Eastern North Carolina who want to see major football and Tyler), to inform residents of the elections.

That body, set up several years ago at the behest of Chancellor Jenkins, is charged with the task of coordinating all university sponsored entertainment during Homecoming Week. The presidents of the Interfraternity Council, Panhellenic, Women's and Men's Residence Councils, SOULS, the editor of FOUNTAINHEAD and various representatives from the University administration are on the committee. Also included are the presidents of the Student Union and the Student Government Association between whom a battle has raged since June when a suggestion was made fa additional entertainment Homecoming Weekend. SGA President Tim Sullivan initiated the proposal because he believed the Count Basie concert Saturday, October 30, would not draw students away from the downtown area where a repeat of the Halloween night disturbance like those of the last two years is feared. Barry Robinson, Student Union President, con- tended that the prediction for overcrowding and trouble downtown Saturday night, the night before Halloween this year, was questionable and that any further entertainment scheduled for that night would cut into receipts for the Basie concert. Prior to the meeting Wednesday the Union led the fight against giving the SGA authority to sponsor additional entertainment and convinced the Home- ooming Committee it would be setting a dangerous precedent to do so. The committee thus ignored warnings by city officials that another disturbance was probable Saturday night after the Homecoming football game unless action was taken by some agency of the University to divert crowds awav from downtown. But the tide reversed in the latest Homecoming Committee meeting and Sullivan's offer of $5,000 contingent upon the Legislature's approval - of SGA money for another Saturday night concert was accepted. The Union was forced to accept the fact that programming without political considerations, that is scheduling events that are not popular with or in the best interest of at least a plurality of the student body, cannot be tolerated on this campus.

THERES OMLY ONE THING I CAN DO UffHTHK PITT COUNTY IW1PFRTY TAX orum Ficklen expansion benefits all m m m To Fountainhead: Recently, remarks have ap- peared in the FOUNTAINHEAD which, while correctly noting the value of the expansion of Ficklen Stadium to the Greenville area, have questioned the benefit of the stadium expansion to the Univer- sity. I would like to call attention to the significant benefits of the stadium expansion to the stu- dents, faculty, and academic programs of the University. East Carolina University com- petes with some3,000 institutions of higher education in the United States for students, faculty, and financial support. In such com- petition, particularly among in- stitutions otherwise closely com- parable, the degree of name identification of the University is a significant factor. Other things being equal, students and faculty members prefer to be associated with institutions whose names are known to themselves heir com- munities, and to the public throughout the country. For sim- ilar reasons, corporations and businesses are more generous in their donations to the academic programs of well known institu- tions. Further, alumni pride, loyalty and support increase as their institution becomes more widely known. An NCAA Division I football classification, with the attendant publicity resulting from games with nationally recognized schools, is an important advant- age in the competition fa name identification among institutions of higher learning. Perhaps some would argue that this would not be the case in an ideal world-but mmmmmmmm in this world, it is the case. The expansion of Ficklen Stadium is essential to gaining that advant- age. The potential benefits to the students, faculty, and academic programs of the University are significant: (1) Facilitation of recruitment of well qualified students and faculty members; (2) Facilitation of job placement of graduates through association with a well-known institution; (3) Encouragement of alumni loyalty and support for the programs of the University; (4) An increase in business and industry support of University academic and scholarship pro- grams, (5) and, in addition, the fun of being part of major athletic competition, whether as a player or a spectator. The fund drive for the expansion of Ficklen Stadium, therefore, is worthy of support by all members of the University community. Gregory A. Ross, Ph.D. Philosophy Department Athletics not overemphasized To Fountainhead: In your letter Tuesday to FOUNTAINHEAD, Ms. Cheat- ham and friends, you said that ECU athletics were the only thing emphasized by the administra- tion. Then you turned around and said funds were denied for a new playhouse because of Ficklen Stadium and more recently the new Med School. Surely then, in regard to the first sentence you meant athletics and the Med School. Since Eastern North Carolina is dreadfully short of actors and McGinnis Auditorium is drawing eighteen thousand plus people per event, let's ail chip in and build a new theatre. The main point is, though, Forum Policy Forum letters should be typed or printed and they must be signed and include the writer's address. Names will be withheld upon request. Letters may be sent to Fountainhead or left at the Information Desk in Mendenhall Student Center. mm that the athletic department is largely self-supporting and the stadium is not going to take funds from other programs. This is a fund raising drive to solicit contributions to expand Ficklen, which implies that if the money is raised then a sufficient amount of people would rather see football than a play. Maybe that's the wrong place to put values, but I doubt it and besides it's a free country. If you want to see a new playhouse built then I suggest you go to see someone in the athletic department and learn how to organize a fund raising campaign, if it's that important to you. If not, don't sit on your collective behinds and expect everyone to pour out sympathy to the drama department just be- cause it appears to you that the big bad ogre athletic department is usurping all the funds. It just isn't so. Gregory Davis Roger W. Green P.S. Ill contribute to your cause if you take the initiative to ask for it mmmmmmmm MHM ass Bis �� �����������������������nnmjHBBHVHi MBHHHM PR .���� � �����������i FOUNTAINHEADVOL 52, NO. 1014 OCTO 1ER 1976 5 M m m�m Rehabilitation center to open in Greenville By STAN HOLLOW ELL Staff Writer The Greenville Regional Re- habilitation Center, authorized by the 1971 N.C. General Assembly at an estimated $1.9 million construction cost, will open a- round Easter, 1977, according to Dave McRae director. The center part of Pitt County Memorial Hospital, will become the final center in a statewide system of five regional centers and one state institute. This will beg in rehabilitation care to within 75 to 100 miles of anyone in the state. This system is unique in the United States because it not only increases availability of facilities but also provides total patient care which deals with the real problems faced by the handicap- ped, according to McRae. "A good example of this is that we have to send all of our severely disabled people to the Whitaker Care Center in Winston Salem said McRae. "The fam- ily lives here and the patient is sent some 200 miles away. So many of the problems to be treated are more than just medical. They are dealing with emotions, the family, and how the patient looks at the world and how he will be motivated to function Amendments to the Federal Vocational Rehabilitation Act in 1967, stimulated by increased nationwide federal funding that went from $50 million to $550 million yearly during the decade, resulted in a full time state planning section and a two year study on the needs of the handi- capped. From information gathered in this study the 1969 General Assembly authorized the state department of rehabilitation to conduct in-depth planning fa the establishment of facilities. Dr. Sheldon Downes, of the Rehabili- tation department at ECU was appointed a member of the committee to head the study. "The advisory committee was composed of a variety of profes- sionals said Downes. ' We decided the best way to find out what rehabilitation centers need- ed would be to visit the finest centers across the country The committee also held pub- lic meetings in major communi- ties across the state. Their findings, published in a final report on rehabilitation in North Carolina, reported that there was no effective help available in the state. "This situation forces the physically disabled person to wait a lengthy period of time and to travel long distances to many different sites to obtain the physical, social, and vocational service he needs according to the report. "In most cases, adequate services are never ob- tained. It is apparent that major changes must take place within the total system of rehabili- tation In addition to the humanitar- ian reasons for rehabilitation there are economic factors to consider. "The most conservative esti- mate is that a rehabilitated disabled individual returns to society in federal and state taxes $10 for every dollar spent during his rehabilitation program the report pointed out. "In addition, the individual is usually self sustaining and not dependent on public monies for subsistence campus, but we're getting there The cost of the total rehabili- tation center is difficult to deter- mine, and will not be known until all construction is complete. The report by the Department of Vocation Rehabilitation estimated that the federal government would pay 61 percent of the construction cost of the Greenville center, the state would pay 24 percent, and Pitt County would pay 15 percent.

In 1971, 43,000 adults were receiv- ing Social Security disability benefits. In March, 1970, 26,751 adults received benefits through the N.C. Department of Social Servioes. "In the Greenville center, Occupational Therapy is going to be doing pre-vocational evalu- ation, which will be an overview of a patient s capacities and disabilities and how they fit into a job said Donna Smith, chief of the Occupation Therapy depart- ment. "People expect more from a handicapped person. If we can get them started on the right track they'll have a better chance of success A study in 1967 by N.C. State University determined that there were over one million people in N.C. who suffered significant mental or physical disability. From this figure, the research and statistics division of the state vocational rehabilitation depart- ment estimated there were 275,000 adults potentially in need of help at any given time. Wherever rehabilitation cent- ers are located, the community and educational facilties must go all out in removing architectural barriers. Requests have been made in the next budget for money to install elevators in all campus building, according to Downes. "The architectural barrier re- moval on campus is all part of the $atewide system for rehabili- tation said Downes. "Four or five years ago we got some matching money from the state to remove barriers, and we've spent up to date about $100,000 in barrier removal.

"Costshave certainly gone up from the 1971 estimates said Downes. "The key to operational costs is to keep the beds filled. The cost is estimated to be $100 a day per client. That sounds terribly expensive of course, until you consider the high powered staff, and the staff-to-client ratio in those centers There is general agreement among rehabilitation profession- als that the N.C. system of regional centers, eventually to be expanded to smaller units in local hospitals and mobile units workig with the regional centers, is the best possible plan to help the handicapped. We think it is, because we' re going to be covering the state, regionally, and we feel one of the most important things in rehabi- litation is not to separate the person fa long periods of time from his home and community said Downes. "Unfortunately, so many centers elsewhere isolate them- selves within the state, some totally inaccessible to all points in the state. So many of them just don't serve the needs "Because of the extent of their problems you don't treat just the patient McRae agreed.

Calder. ECU director of Security and Traffic. "The number one problem facing university public service organizations nationwide is the fantastic growth of crime on campus since approximately 1970 said Calder. According to Calder, petty larceny and violent crimes such as rape and aggravated assault have not increased at ECU as they have on larger campuses. At ECU, the rate of petty thievery is pretty stable said Calder. "We really don't have any violent crime on the campus property either Calder said the last violent on-campuscrime wasa rape three years ago. "We haven't even really had any aggravated assaults. "From 1970 to 1976, petty larceny mushroomed on college campuses in general and violent crimes skyrocketed Calder attributed the increase in crimes on most campuses to the large number of college drop- outs who remained around col- lege towns after the protest days of the late '60's. Calder said ECU did not experience a serious increase in crimes in the early '70s as did many campuses. According to the Property File Record of the campus police, the number of petty crimes has generally not increased over last year. However, there has been an increase in the theft of certain negotiable items. 275 thefts were reported between January '75 and September '75 while only 264 have been reported this year. Thefts recorded in these re- cords include such items as appliances, building supplies, guns, radios, televisions, and tape players. According to records in the security office, however, there has been an increase in the number of auto thefts this year. Three cars have been stolen since April. Drug charges seem to be on the decrease with no arrests on record this year as opposed to According to James M.Camp- bell, assistant professor of cor- rections and socia, work, crime on campus can be divided into two groups which he calls Part 1 and Part 2 offenses. X thefts According to Campbell, the apprehension rate for campus crimes is approximately 18 per cent for burglaries and 24 percent for larcenies. A map indicating the location of campus crimes between January '76 and March '76 was constructed by a corrections class under Campbell's direction. According to the map, the greatest number of crimes hes occurred between Greene, White, Fletcher, Clement, and Garrett dams. These crimes consisted mostly of larcenies. However, there were eight cases of breaking and entering reported. Calder said that approximate- ly the same number of police are assigned to each beat on campus, but that several officers are usually around the girls' dorm areas. According to Campbell, the stabilization of on-campus crimes might just be a one-year pheno- menon, or it might be due to police efforts. "We would hope that our services have helped hold crime in check, but we really don't know why it stabilized said Eddings. M JOSEPH CALDER, ECU Director seven fa last year. The frequency of bicycle thefts remains high on campus, accading to campus police files. 129 bicycles were repated stolen last year, and 129 thefts have been repated to date this year. Bicycle thefts are one of our maja problems due to the fact that they are so highly negoti- able said Francis M. Eddings, ECU assistant directa of se- curity. "Our next problem is larceny of money Eddings noted the great num- ber of thefts of citizen band (CB) radios and tape decks. CB theft has inaeased 300 per cent since last year, accading to the Property File Recad. Eddings said a maja problem faced by the security department is keeping unauthaized persons out of damitaies. "If dam occupants would repat these people as soon as they spot them, then it would cut down on the number of thefts. "There are a lot of non-stu- dents committing crimes ac- cading to Eddings. Eddings added that students should not only be suspicious of non-students, but also of other dam students. "The number of aimes com- mitted by students and non- students is about equal i of Security and Traffic. "Part One aimes are known as' index aimes' and are used to measure the level of aiminality in the United States said Camp- bell. Part One aimes include mur- der, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, larceny in excess of $50, auto theft, and burglary. "ECU only has several Part One offenses in a year's time accading to Campbell.

Judy Collins has a quicksilver way of defying definitions. Just as soon as you thing you have figured out who she is and what she does, she changes directions and adds new dimensions and surprises. In the early 1960's she made her first two albums for Elektra, Maid of Constant Sorrow and Golden Apples of the Sun, that brought her wide critical acclaim. Then, with the release of Judy Collins 3, Time Magazine called her "a major contender for the female folk crown With her next three albums, Judy Collins In Concert, Judy Collins 5, and In My Life, Judy transformed herself entirely into an unparalleled artist who could not be confined by the term, "folk-singer Judy added a new dimension to her life with the release of Wildf lowers.

'Silver Fox' to perform in Minges Of all the giant talents who emerged from the Memphis studios of Sam Phillips' Sun Records, it has taken the longest fa CHARLIE RICH to attain his rightful place in the musical firmament as a star of the first magnitude. Success was a long time ooming to CHARLIE RICH, but with his latest Epic album, The Silver Fox Rich reaffirms his stature as one of the giants in the field of entertainment. CHARLIE RICH grew up on a farm in the same region of the south as Presley, Cash, and Perkins, among others. He also shared a similar background, chopping cotton and waking the fields of his family's farm. He began playing piano at the age of seven, and by fourteen was playing with local bands. Rich's wife, a brilliant song- stress in her own right, per- suaded Charlie to cut a demon- stration tape. From this, Rich signed with Sun Recads. On this label, he released his first album, "Lonely Weekends Despite the success of "Lone- ly Weekends further chart action on the failing Sun label was not fathooming. and in 1965 Rich moved over to Smash recads. Working with producer Jerry Kennedy, who had revitalized Jerry Lee Lewis' declining career, Charlie's association with Smash yielded the chart topping single "Mohair Sam" and two superb albums, which even today stands as the high point of his pre-Epic work. It was not until a contract with Epic teamed him with producer Billy Sherrill that Charlie made the big breakthrough that had always eluded him befae. Be- hind Closed Doas" became his first gold single and one of the largest selling recads of 1973. His album won two Grammy Awards.

Nick Nolte sat next to her, fingering the newly acquired scars that cover his body. The two had just emerged from the most unusual movie set ever construc- ted, 30 feet beneath the surface of what may be the world's largest salt-water swimming pool. Bisset and Nolte are co-star- ring in Peter Benchiey's, "The Deep being filmed in Bermuda after two months shooting 80-feet below the suiface of the Virgin Island's crystal clear waters. Most of the filming is done underwater, eliminating the need for a hairdresser and makeup artist. But they are the only two members of a normal crew not participating in the underwater scenes, which require all person- nel to be proficient divers. Neither Bisset nor Nolte knew how to dive before signing fa their roles. Other members of the cast and crew were selected not only for their cinematic talents but for their ability to work underwater fa extended periods of time. A special underwater lighting system and camera are operated by technicians wearing tanks and masks. The directa, Peter Yates, directs using hand signals chaeo- graphed with the cast and aew befae each scene is submerged. Even the script girl waks under- water, using a slate and grease pencil to take naes. Writers invited to the location are given instant scuba lessons so they can observe the filming underwater. The instructa is the same diver who tutaed Bisset and Nolte in a sharkless Holly- wood swimming pool. Nolte finds the experience both challenging and awesome. He and Bisset found themselves in the midst of a school of sharks while doing a scene in the Virgin Islands. While the two were adered to the surface slowly, to avoid the bends phaographers shot away with both their cameras and spear guns, getting unexpec- ted footage. There are more hazards than sharks, however. Nolte has had problems with caal burns that sting and scar. Bisset developed a severe head cold that prevented her from diving and altered the shooting sequence. There are some dry scenes set in Bermuda, and these were shot until Bisset got over her sniffles. The pia is loosely based on an actual event. Benchiey, who authaed "Jaws the most com- mercially successful film of all time , went on a diving vacation in the Virgin Islands after comple- ting the shark saga. Apparently, his film was responsible for scarina others from the sea. but not him. Treasure diver Teddy Tucker took Benchiey down 80 feet, where two wrecks are sandwich- ed, one on top of the other. One ship, Tucker told the autha, contained treasures, while vials of THE DEEP, starring Nick Nolte and Jacqueline Bisset, is a Peter Benchiey stay of Bermuda treasure-hunting. cocaine had been found on the other. Benchiey researched and documented the staies and then coistructed a modern pia, invol- ving a honeymoon couple who discover the sunken ships while diving. The aiginal ships were used fa shooting in the Virgin Islands, but the depth of the water and natural marine life made contin- uous shooting there impractical. Consequently, producer Peter Guber arranged to have a mock- up built in Bermuda, at a cost of $1 million. Replicas of the ship interias were constructed at the bottom of the 30-foot pod, which is approx- imately 200 feet in diameter. Water is pumped in from the sea and returned through a specially constructed flume. After the mock-sea was completed, it was stocked with 4,000 friendly tropi- cal fish, who have become accustomed now to greeting the stars when they swim to the set. Tucker has been hired as a technical advisa, and a marine biologist has been put on the regular payroll to maintain the sea life and keep an eye on the saline balance. When the picture is completed, the pool may be sold to a marine park, becoming another tourist attraction for Bermuda visitas. dloaQtm SPECIALIZING IN INDIAN JEWELRY 112 E. 5th St. Greenville Handmade Indian Jewelry from the Southwest. r We have just received a new shipment of rings, bracelets & earrings.

What I mean by ' punk rock' is that style of short, uncomplicated riffs that Aerosmith used to play. The Ramones play in a tough nightclub on the bowery in New York City. The name of the nightclub is CBGB, and most of the new hard rock bands are coming out of it. These guys only play three chords through the whole album, but it's how they deliver them that makes this a non-stop rocker. Each song is only three minutes long and one song seems to fuse into the next. This heavy metal madness goes on until someone cuts the tape off in what seems to be mid-stroke. This is the end of side one. Side two begins with much of the same and plows through until its climax comes with "Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World which is about a drunken Nazi being pushed around. I had an argument with a friend of mine that side one of this album is harder than side two. His opinion is just the reverse. Whichever you decide, I'm sure you'll enjoy their music and their rics. One of my favorites is 'Loudmouth and it goes as follows: You're a loudmouth baby; You'd better shut it up, I'm gonna beat you up. Cause you're a loudmouth baby. Leather jacket optional. BLUE OYSTER CULT The Cult has come out with a new album, Agents of Fortune, and it's different than anything they've ever done. Isn't that just like Blue Oyster Cult to change and improve their music every album? This band, in my opinion, can not get any tighter or else they'll have an explosion. Some people don't like this album. These same people don't like anything after Tyranny & Mutation (which was their first basic change). I myself was one of these people until I slowly came around to how good their 3rd album, Secret Treaties, is. Agents of Fortune is not that radical a change from their 3rd album, but it is from their 2nd. Therefore, the people that didn't like their 3rd album like their present album less. Blue Oyster Cult is a band of changes and probably will con- tinue changing. This is one reason why this band has not burned themselves out after two albums, like the other hard rock bands do. This is not the Cult's best album, but it is an important one. If you still like the Cult after their second album, (although I like them all,) I think you should pick this up. I can't wait to see what BOC is gonna do on their next album. The future of rock' n roll is Blue Oyster Cult. BOSTON Boston is a group that has no overground notoriety (which is explained on the back cover). These guys have the energy, but they don't have that special something that separates them from the mire of other rock bands, I don't want to make the impression that this is a bad album. It's not. It's just not outstanding or unique. I like the opening song (which is an FM hit) 'More than the Feeling I must also oommend the drummer for excellent playing The lead player jams well, too. On side two, the organ seems a little unnecessary. I feel the organ should emphasize the music as it has done to full effect on the first two R.E.O. Speed- wagon albums. If you want to hear some good funk from Boston, look up Stepson, an album released a year ago that beats this tea party. LOOK! TIRED OF WALKING TO CUSS?

Midterm miseries By PAT COY LE Trends Editor In case you have had the good fortune not to notice, this is midterm week. For me, this is the week when all of my gripes about teachers, courses, and the world in general seem to combine, forming one big black cloud of despair. My only consolation in my misery is the knowledge that I am not alone, that I share this frustration with the way things are with so many others, friends, strangers and enemies alike. Even as I write this, the Fountainhead office is a veritable zoo of people in misery, airing their differences in frustrations in multiple ways. Over at the news desk, they're wondering if journalism and schizophrenia really do mix. The business manager is stretched across her desk, trying in vain to make up for the two days of lost sleep she needs so desperately. Our sports staff is baring their teeth and frothing at the mouth as a certain former sports editor brags blithely about the fact that he is out of school. My fellow Trends worker is trying without success to keep his eyes from crossing and uncrossing. The people who have maintained any semblance of sanity are our typist receptionist, who is not in school to begin with (damn her!), and our "Senior Editor who feels he should present a facade of calm strength at all times (but we all know that he makes frequent retreats to his office for a session of crying into his security blanket). The office is not the only place where this feeling of mad desperation prevails. Back in the dorm, the girls have all been staying up throughout the night studying, comforting themselves with (among other things) pictures of their boyfriends, dreams of graduation, Hostess Twinkies, and trips to the Riggs House. My main communication with the girls in these busy times oomes in that great meeting place, the bathroom. We all have to go there from timetotime, and we've found that our "stall sessions" are a good way to keep up with each other without wasting any extra time. We've thought about adding graffitti to those dull pine doors, but none of us have the energy to inscribe anything lasting. Okay, so there are some of you out there who aren't having such a bad week. My first impulse is to degrade you for not studying, to lambast you for getting intoa crip major, or fa staying in general college fa seven years. But I am a good person, and I can toss aside all of those hostile feelings (GROWL!) I will, however, tell you a little of what you're missing. You have obviously never had a teacher assign a 40-page paper the day after drop-add ended. You've never been faoed to spend 13 hours pondering the possibilities of "thought in 17th century Rhodesia " Why, I'll bet you've never even taken a oourse in the anthropological background of Patuguese tail-less cats. I know that the non-sufferers are relatively few, that most of you are in the same boat I'm in. The only advice I can offer is the thought that seems to run constantly through my wan mind what's wrong with waking at K-Mart a digging ditches? At least there's a quitting time to those careers.

ACROSS FROM CLEMENT DORM m NMMMVINMM m 101 Pirates look for third league win at VMI ByBILLKEYES Assistant Sports Editor Coaches usually have a diffi- cult time getting their teams going after a big victory like the one ECU had over Southern Illinois last Saturday 49-14. But Coach Pat Dye will have no problems getting the Pirates psychologically prepared to play Virginia Military Institute this weekend. The Pirate players realize that the Keydets remember the 28-12 defeat they suffered at ECU last season and would like nothing more than to avenge that loss when the Pirates invade 10,000 seat Alumni Memorial Stadium this Saturday at 2 00. The 1st time ECU invaded Lexington the Key- dets whipped the Pirates 13-3 to cop the SC title. Though the ECU coaching staff has no problem in psycholo- gicallv preparing the team, I FRED CHA VIS starting for Godette strategic preparation does pose a problem. Aocording to assistant coach Wright Anderson, "We have a real problem and that problem is the theory they have up there. Their theory is to give everybody a different look every week. They never do the same things against two different teams Th,3 will especially hurt the Pirates offensively because block- ing assignments cannot be made concrete. The VMI defense is especially tough against the wish- bone. What are Coach Ander- son' s guesses? "We don't have any good guesses. They've played every- thing in the book, leaving us with no idea what they miqht do See KEYDETS, page 12.) Appalachian-Furman tie puts ECU in loop lead Furman's surprise 14-14 tie with Appalachian State last week- end has put East Carolina in the carseat for the Southern Con- ference title in their last year in the league. The tie dropped Appalachian to 1-0-1 in the conference and helped to give ECU a little breathing room in the oonferenoe race. What's more, the Pirates get a chance to widen that lead when they play the VMI Keydets in Lexington this weekend. The Keydets are 1-2 in SC play and 1-4 for the season after falling to Virginia Tech 37-7 last week. And with nothing but non- league encounters on their sche- dule after VMI until Nov. 13 the Pirates appear the team to beat. From Appalachian State's standpoint, it could be an uphill battle. The Mountaineers, who were picked to be ECU'S closest contender, lost quarterback Rob- bie Price for the second time this season when he was injured in the first quarter against Furman. Without the services of Price in the second half the Apps failed to score on four drives inside the Furman eight. That was the only interoon- ference game which counted in the standings last week, and the ECU-VMI contest makes the only loop encounter this week.

The loss marked the second time in three weeks the Indians had seen victory fall narrowly from their grasp. Three weeks ago, the I ndians dropped a 20-19 loss to ECU. "Wehad it and let it get away from us said WM coach Jim Root about the loss to Delaware. "I thought our kids played a helluva game, but Delaware cashed in on a big turnover (a fumbled punt) and you just can't give a good football team like that such an opportunity The loss dropped William and Mary to 3-2 on the year entering this weekend's encounter with Navy. The other Southern teams all played nonoonference games and enjoyed mixed results. The Cita- del hosted recent SC affiliate UT-Chattanooga in Charleston and came away with a narrow 17-13 win over the Mocassins. Western Carolina, another recent admission to the SC, dropped Jacksonville St. 14-13 on a late score; Davidson played to a scoreless tie against Randdph- Maeon and Marshall had the day off. Of Davidson's 0-0 deadlock with Randolph-Macon Wildcat head coach Ed Ferrell called it a "ridiculousexhibition of football. We didn't get anybody hurt out there because we didn't hit anybody The real conference race won't actually start until Oct. 30 That week Furman and William and Mary and Appalachian State and The Citadel square off. At least until then, the East Carolina Pirates remain on top of the heap and in the best position for the fight down the stretch. Sports Sideline Chat with Steve Wheeler When teams such as Texas, Alabama, and Oklahoma started running the wishbone offense back in the late sixties, teams were awed by the yardage churned out by these powers. Then, as assistant ooachesat these schools started migrating to head coaching jobs around the country, more and more teams began using the offense. But. as more teams were using the wishbone, defenses started finding ways to slow the running attack, sometimes stop it. Teams running the' Bone' still average more yards per game than do teams running the I' or pro' T, but the difference is narrowing year by year. One reason isthat more schools not having players with the ability to run offense are trying to anyhow. To run the formation, a team must have a oombination of quality players, with quickness being the biggest asset. The quarterback must be very quick on his feet and sure-handed. To carry out the oomplete wishbone option the quarterback must fake to the fullback up the middle and either hand off to the first deep back through or the dive off tackle or run parallel to the line of scrimmage with the option of pitching to the trailing back or cutting upfield himself. The fullback must be big, strong and durable as he takes as hard a hit on a fake in the middle of the line as he does when he has the ball. The two deep running backs must possess tremendous quickness to hit the hole quick on the tackle dive and to elude defenders on the wide- pitch. The offensive line is the backbone of any offense and this is especially true in the wishbone. Mammoth size is not as important as line speed and quickness in the wishbone. The linemen must be quick enough to shoot off the line of scrimmage when the ball is snapped to open holes in the defense. East Carolina's offensive unit fits these descriptions perfectly. Mike Weaver is one of the top wishbone quarterbacks in the nation, while Raymond Jones has been a bruising fullback all season. Willie Hawkins and Eddie Hicks are probably the two best deep backs in one backfield in the country this year. The offensive line, consisting of tight end Clay Burnett, tackles Ricky Bennett and Matt Mulhdland, guards Wayne Bolt and Randy Parrish, and center Tim Hightower are called by Pirate coach Pat Dye "Six Screaming Bullets" for their speed off the ball. And when the running attack is clicking Weaver can sometimes slip a bomb in to speedy split receiver Terry Gallaher. The Pirates are so effective offensively that they are fourth in the nation in rushing offense, sixth in scoring offense and 16th in total offense. The Pirates have run up against defenses this year that slowed certain parts of its wishbone but no one has shot the running game down completely. Against Southern Miss, the deep backs were most successful taking pitches from the quarterbacks and churning out big gains. The deep backs averaged 11.3 yards per carry in that game, with Eddie Hicks gaining 133 and Wi'lie Hawkins 128. State held the Pirates to 256 yards rushing, which was balanced among the fullbacks, quarterbacks and halfbacks. William and Mary stopped the quarterback cut by Weaver completely, but Raymond Jones gained 109 yards at fullback and the halfbacks picked up 107. Weaver ran well against the Citadel, gaining 103 yards. The Southern Illinois game produced three hundred yard rushers in Hicks (172), Hawkins (112) and Pete Conaty (103). The Pirates ran so well outside the fullbacks carried just four times. The season has produced seven individual century mark rushers in just five games, three more than all of last season. The deep backs have averaged 6.4 yards per carry this season, with Hicks having 402 yards and Hawkins 383 to date. Fullbacks have been getting 4.1 yards per clip so far, with Jones' 252 leading the way. Quarterbacks have accounted for 3.6 yards per rushing attempt, Weaver getting 236 yards and Conaty 107. m 12 FOUNTAINHEADVOL 52, NO. 1014 OCTOBER 1976 mmm tmrnm m-nmwmmim mm mm mi Weaver making best of last year By JOHN EVANS Staff Writer Time is running out on Mike Weaver's football career. At 170 pounds and being a college wishbone quarterback, the Williamston native doesn't stand much of a chance of playing professional football after his playing days at ECU are over. "Of course I'd like to play in the pros said Weaver. "I think every oollege player does. But I'm positive that I won't play and know nobody is looking at me in those terms But Weaver still has six and possibly seven games remaining as the quarterback for ECU'S wishbone. He can accomplish a lot of things in that time-per- sonally and as a member of the ECU football team. As a matter of fact, Weaver has already become the fourth- leading passer in ECU history, is ranked seventh in total career offense and is tenth among the ECU career rushers. "I don't wrry about those type of things says Weaver. "In fact, I didn't know all that stuff was true. Sometimes I'll do 2-0-1 in league well, sometimes I won't, that's not important. I am conscious of my completion percentage be- cause with the wishbone it is important to complete as many passes as you can That brings up an interesting note about the Pirate quarter- Booters tie 'Cats ECU soooer team clashed head on with Davidson Monday and came out with a 1-1 tie. The team now stands 2-0-1 in the conference. Ronnie Walters of Davidson scored the first goal during the first half. Pete Angus of ECU soored in the second half to even the soore. The game then went on to two overtimes with neither team being able to score. ECU put 31 shots on goal to Davidson's 18. The Pirates were the dominant team on the field but were unable to break the tie, aocording tcCoach Curtis Frye.

Throughout his three-year career as the Pirates' starting quarterback Weaver's passing has always been subjected to criticism. Yet he has completed 45 percent of his passes over the I at two years and has 1,140 yards passing for his career. "I think a lot of the criticism for my passing comes from my sophomore year said Weaver. "I didn't do too well that year (21 of 81 passes and nine inter- ceptions) and I think it kind of stuck that I couldn't pass But if one looks at Weaver's statistics so far this season they show a different result. He has completed 19 of 33 passes for 301 yards and a 51.5 completion percentage. "I've given up a lot to play football but I have gotten so much back from it. I just want to make the best of the time I have left And he probably will V-Ball team splits ECU'S volleyball team travel- ed to Greensboro on Monday and split against UNC-G and Cataw- ba.

Against Catawba, ECU won 15-3, 12-15, 15-9. "With a little consistency in setting and on defense we should be able to give a good show at the state tournament oommented Coach Catherine Bolton.

We tried to think whether there's a defense they haven't used yet, but there isn't one. They've played every de- fense we've ever seen One of their best defensive players is John Willison, a 6-3, 220 pound linebacker who was named national defensive player of the week for his performance against Virginia Tech two years ago. The tackles are 6-4, 245 pound Ned Stepanovich and 6-3, 237 pound Dutch Goddard. The other linebacker, Glen Jones, started against ECU last year and played well. In the secondary, Bob McQueen, who has played against ECU for the past three seasons, is the top performer. The Pirates offense which will go against this mystery VMI defense includes in the line center Tim Hightower, guards Wayne Bolt and Randy Parrish, tackles Matt Mulholland and Ricky Ben- nett, tight end Clay Burnett, and split end Terry Gaiiaher. In the backfield are fullback Raymond Jones and halfbacks Eddie Hicks and Willie Hawkins behind quarterback Mike Weaver. Pete Conaty, Souther Conference of- fensive player of the week fa his performance against SIU last Saturday, should also Dlay some QB along with handling the kicking chores. Following the same pattern as their defense, the VMI offense runs a number of different plays from a number of differnt form- ations, but they will not cause the ECU defense quite as much trouble because there is some recognition factor. Offensively, VMI's key play- ers are wide receiver Johnny Garnett, who "has good hands and runs real good patterns according to Anderson; and quarterback Robbie Clark. Run- ning back Ken Glidewell has played well as a starter against ECU for the past couple of seasons, but has been beaten out of his starting job by 5-10. 180 pound junior Andre Gibson. The ECU defense includes in the line nosequard Oliver Felton, tackles Tim Swords and Jake Dove, along with ends Zack Valentine and Fred Chavis. Cary Godette, who has missed recent games due to a knee injury is also expected to see action at end. The linebackers are Harold Fort and Harold Randolph. The secondary includes free safety Jim Bolding, cornerbacks Ernie Madison and Reggie Pinkney, and strong safe- ty Gerald Hall. Steve Hale may relieve Hall.

Since his retirement from the NFL, he has worked as assistant athletic director at the University of Kansas and this fall began his first year as athletic director at Southern Illinois University. Before the kickoff of the ECU-SI U game last Saturday, Sayers stood in the Ficklen Stadium press box watching the Oklahoma-Texas game on TV. But he took time out for this conversation with FOUNTAIN- HEAD'S Bill Keyes. FOUNTAINHEAD: What's the biggest difference between col- lege and professional football? SA YERS: The size and speed of the players, and the quality of the players throughout the whole team. In pro ball, you have quality players at every position. You know they're all among the best at their positions. Also, the quality of the competition. Every team in the NFL is tough. You don't have teams on your schedule who you can call sure wins like you do on the college level. FOUNTAINHEAD: Why did you want to get into athletic adminis- tration? SA YERS: Well, I loved athletics, and I wanted to stay involved with sports in some way after I ended my football career. And I wanted to work on the college level GALE SAYERS because that's where all the action is. But I didn't want to coach, so I dedded to get into the administrative aspect. That's what I prepared myself for. When I went back to Kansas I got my Masters in Educational Admin- istration and worked as assistant athletic director. Then when this job SIU athletic director came open, I took it. FOUNTAINHEAD: What's your biggest challenge as athletic director at SIU? SA YERS: To build and maintain a quality program with topnotch teams in every sport. SIU has had good teams in swimming, wrest- ling, basketball well, we've had good teams overall but we must improve our football program. Getting Rey Dempsey as head coach is a real plus. He'll help alot. But maintaining a quality program with winning teams is our objective. 'No class' Bumper sticker upsets Pat Dye By STEVE WHEELER Sports Editor HANG DOWN YOUR HEAD BILL DOOLEY, POOR BOY, YOU'RE GOING TO DYE That little line was printed on bumper stickers earlier this week, reportedly by former Student Government Association (SGA) president Bill Bodenhammer, and it has head football ooach Pat Dye upset, to say the least. "I understand that a bumper sticker has been printed about Coach (Bill) Dooley and myself Dye said in a statement issued Wednesday afternoon. "We try to teach our players to have class and show it on and off the field. This shows no class at all. "I'm disappointed that one of our own people would try to profit financially on something that our football program and team does not believe in. "It's unfortunate that this has occurred the week we'regetting ready for VMI. I certainly hope nothing of this sort takes place in the future Bodenhammer was out of town Wednesday and unavailable for comment. Some of the bumper stickers have been sighted on SGA buses. Tim Sullivan, current SGA president, commented on the stickers. I did not know they were on the buses. It (bumper stickers) is in very poor taste. If those stickersare on the SGA buses they will be taken off East Carolina faces North Carolina Oct. 23 in Chapel Hill. The Heels fell to the Pirates 38-17 last year. Because of the economic situation in college athletics, our immediate challenge is to get more people coming to the stadium. We have a 20,000-seat stadium. It's alot like this one Ficklen. It's newly renovated and has astroturf. A nice fadlity, but we've gotta put people in the seats. But under my administra- tion, attendance is picking up, primarily because we're just going out and getting the people to come watch us play. I like to see more student involvement, but that comes with a winning team. FOUNTAINHEAD: What is your most memorable experience as a player in the NFL? SAYERS: The whde career, I guess. It was just a real honor and privilege to be able to play with and against the best every Sunday. It was a pleasure to meet and be associated with such great people. No particular games or plays really stand out that much. FOUNTAINHEAD: You were one of the most exciting backs to play the game. How was your style developed? SA YERS: God-given. Everything I had, everything I was when I was on the field was God-given. Of course, I had to work to develop my strength and speed. And I had to get in the best possible condition physically. But I didn't do anything to develop a particular running style. I didn't copy anybody else. My ability was God-given. FOUNTAINHEAD: Who's the best back in football today? SA YERS: That depends on your means and standards of measure- ment. Most people use the yard- stick, the number of yards a player rushes for in a season. But it's so dose. If you take all of the 1,000-yards-a-season backs or the top ten ground gainers and put them in a hat, you can just pull one out and be satisfied with whoever you pick because they're all so good, all professional, all capable of doing a great job every week, whether it's O.J. Simpson, Armstrong of Denver, Woods out at San Diego, Franco Harris, Lyndell Mitchell of Baltimore, or whoever. FOUNTAINHEAD: OK, take the top 10 and put them in a hat along with Gale Sayers when he was in his prime. How does Sayers compare? SA YERS: Laughter That's really an unfair question. Pause Like I said, they're all good. But it's difficult to compare backs be- cause they all have such different styles. I don't think I was like any of the others. If you drt� a line down the middle of the field I might move as far as twenty yards from that line on both sides on a 40 or 50 yard run, while some backs would try to run straight ahead, it's just a difference in style. It's hard to compare. Pause Well there'll never be a nother Gale Sayers. Basketball practice starts East Carolina University opens basketball practice for the 1976-77 season this Friday with seven returning veterans and six newoomers expected. Only two starters return to a squad that's composed of eight underclassmen, four of those sophomores and four freshmen. Larry Hunt, a 6-9 senior center from Shelby, N.C elected captain this year, isoneof the two returning starters, having aver- aged nine points and nine re- bounds per game last year. Louis Crosby, a 6-3 guard, also from Shelby, is the other returning starter. Crosby was named to the Southern Conference All-Rookie team last year while averaging eight points per game. He was seoond on the Pirate team in assists with 51. "I guess I'm looking at this team in a guarded state said Dave Pattern, who enters his third year as Pirate head coach. "Last year, I thought we had the people to get the job done and we didn't do it. So I have to have a more pensive attitude about this sea- son After his initial club was 19-9, Patton found the going rough last year with a final record of 11-15. But that's behind now. "Each team makes and esta- blishes its own character noted Patton. "This year's success will depend entirely upon per- formances this year and have nothing to do with performances of last year. Therefore, I don't care to mention last year any- more. This is a new group, and for the most part, a group not associated with last year The'7677 Pirate team will be very young with possible starters from both the freshman and sophomore classes. Transfer 6-8 forward Greg Cornelius, who played one year at Samford University in Alabama, could well start, after sitting out last year. He will be challenged by Wade Henkel, a 6-8 junior, who has the potential but has failed to use it; Herb Gray a 6-7 freshman; and Herb Krusen, a 6-5 freshman. Junior oollege transfer Don Whitaker, a 6-0 guard from Raleigh, N.C will be fighting with sophomore Billy Dineen, a 5-11 parttime starter last year, and Jim Ramsey, a 6-3 freshman from Cary, N.C for the starting point guard position. "Maturity will perhaps be the key to this year's team con- tinued Patton. "Just how quickly our young players mature into the oollege game will likely be the success or failure of this club. "Defense will be the other major problem area, but I think we have a good start here, in that our players have the desire and attitude to do what has to be done and that's 90 percen of the job. "We will try to return to the basics this year and keep every- thing simple again like we did the first year when we were very successful. I hope to get the fullest capabilities of each player and the winning and losing will take care of itself The Pirates open their season on November 29 at home in Minges Coliseum at 7:30 p.m. against UNC-Astieville, marking the first meeting ever of these two teams. mm mm m mm mmmm RETURNING SENIOR LARRY HUNT left is one of two starter back hoping to team with good recruiting dass to improve on Pirates 1-15 nark c' last year. mmwmymmmwmmmmmmmwmmmmmmmmtmmtmmnm �����BBBiOBi 14 FOUNTAINHEADVOL 52, NO. 1014 OCTOBER 1976 �tf ft nufc finia mm. � PI �� I �IM AMI Golfers take second in Campbell tourney By DAVID ROBEY Staff Writer ECU's Men's golf team lost to Campbell by two strokes in the ACC-Campbell College Golf Tournament.

In the "A" match Greensboro was able to get on the scoreboard first with a 25 yard run by Jay Smith, the extra point kick by Bob Johnston was good and Greens- boro led 6-0.

It's simple, but very successful. At least East Carolina thinks it is. "The first thing I try to do is catch the ball he said, "and if I find an opening I take it The Edenton sophomore has had a good deal of luck in finding openings. Through the first five games, Hall leads the nation in punt return yardage, with a total of 234 yards, even though he did not play against Southern Illinois. This total includes a 79 yard return for a touchdown against Southern Mississippi in the season opener. Through his success, though, Hall remains modest. "My blocking has really been good he said. "I'm fairly quick, too, and that helps me get free sometimes There have been problems at times this season for the nation's leading punt return yardage man. The most famous mistake he has made was a fair catch on the one yard line against North Carolina State. "Their (State's) punter hit that one good explained Hall. "I was waiting on the ten yard line. I knew I was backing up, but I didn't realize how far Then with a sheepishgrin spreading across his face he added, "When I caught it, I knelt down in the end zone. At least that's where I thought I was. Then I saw what had happened and thought oh, no Hall's talents are not limited to returning punts. He is also the starting strong side safety in the East Carolina defensive secondary. He is the newest member of the tandem that has played together for several years. The Pirate safety said that playing with experienced guys helps his performance. "I'm young and I'll make mistakes Hall admitted.

GERALD HALL Just a frosh Zwigard leads hockey By STEVE WHEELER Sports Editor Many people say that a freshman trying to play athletics on the varsity level is crazy. But do not tell Cathy Zwigard that. The Lawrenceville, N.J. native has been the star so far this season on the women's field hockey team, but says she is still learning. "We played the traditional style in high school Zwigard stated. "But when I came down to ECU I found they play a completely different style (systems). "I'm still learning the style of play. I've learned a lot already, but I've got a long way to go. But Coach (Laurie) Arrants is a tremendous teacher A three-year letterman from high school days, Zwigard has learned a lot already, having scored five goals in as many games.

"Cathy has adapted well to the college level game Coach Laurie Arrants.

We played in the fall while the boy's play football and drew big crowds Zwigard, a special education major, has some strong aspirations for her future. I really want to teach retarded children. During my senior year in high school, I went to classes for half a day and worked with retarded kids for half the day. I loved working with them. This summer I worked at a day camp for retarded children The way the world is today, one cannot find individuals with the oompassion Cathy Zwigard has. She will make it big on the playing field of life. boro led 20-16. Greensboro added another try in the closing minutes of the game to make the final score Greensboro 24-ECU 16.
