Fountainhead ON THE INSIDE Sign language, p. 2 Jazz in Greenville, p. 8 Pirates dropped, p. 10 Vd. 52, No. 67 East Carolina University Greenville, North Carolina 29 June 1977 Campus streets widened By CINDY BROOME News Editor and KENTYNDALL Staff Writer Streets are being widened, a parking lot has been constructed, but there are no plans for additional paving due to lack of funds, according to James J. Lowry, Director of Operations. The street from Gotten dorm to Fletcher dorm is being widened to allow for easier traffic flow, according to Lowry, but there are no plans to change one-way streets to two-way streets. "The street behind Gotten, Fleming, and Jarvis will remain a one-way street said Lowry. The street will continue to be a two-street from the end of Jarvis to Fletcher, according to Lowry. "Everything will eventually be the same as it was said Lowry. The widening of the streets should be complete prior tc the beginning of fall semester, ac- cording to Lowry. A parking lot which will yield approximately 100 parking spaces has been constructed in front of the drama building and paving should have begun yesterday, according to Lowry. There are no major changes this year concerning the parking situation, according to Francis Eddings, Assistant Director of Security, Traffic, and Safety. No new parking lots will be constructed, except fa the lot in front of the drama building, said Eddings. Several "staff parking" spaces have been added to several of the parking lots, but there is no parking space lost to students, faculty, or staff mem- bers, according to Eddings. " No one is losing any parking space said Eddings. The barricade on the street near Fletcher and Garrett dorms leading to Fifth Street has been removed, said Eddings, but may have to be replaced, due to street construction, if necessary. There were tentative plans to pave the dirt parking lot beside Garrett dorm this summer, but there is no money to fund the paving. "There aren't funds available MAYBE SOME PARKING problems will be solved after parking committee convenes. Photo by Kirk Kingsbury. for it (the paving) this summer said Lowry. "Exactly when it will be paved, I couldn't tell you Funds for paving come from the N.C. General Assembly, according to Lowry. To surface the parking lot with gravel would be costly, too, according to Lowry. There would be a lot of work beforehand even just putting rocks there said Lowry. A building across from the campus police station is being demolished, and there are plans to build a small utilities center on the site, according to Lowry. The renovation was a three- phase project, including the con- struction of a new power plant, now completed, according to Lowry. Lowry said it is hoped that the bookstore can be moved into its new quarters prior to August 19 to reopen August 22. Lowry also said a small animal facilty fa the medical school is being constructed in the court- yard behind Ragsdale. STREETS ARE BEING widened, but no parking lots are being paved.

To discuss parking problems SGA, city form committee By CINDY BROOME News Edita The SGA is waking jointly with the City of Greenville toward the aeation of the ECU-Green- ville Parking Committee that will study the parking problem at ECU and surrounding areas. The committee will consist of members from the ECU student body, the Greenville City Council, the ECU administration, and one member from the ECU Board of Trustees. The committee will be chaired by the SGA representative to the city council, Jerry Cox. "This is a maja step ?oward better communications between the city and ECU in the area of parking said Cox. "I feel that the respective problems of the university and the city will be brought into the open so as to furnish a better basis fa understanding the needs of each The City of Greenville will be represented by oity councilman W.J. Hadden and Maya Pro- Tern Mildred T. McGrath who were appointed to the committee by Maya Percy Cox. A student will be selected by SGA President Neil Sessoms to serve on the committee. The selection will be made from applicants from the student body. Joe Calda, Directa of Secur- ity and Traffic Supervision will also serve on the committee. "I feel that all the concerned factions will be well represented on this committee. We should be able to make progress said Cox. The committee will discuss parking restrictions on streets near campus, mae parking lots, ways to limit the number of vehicles on campus, towing poli- cies, parking fa the expanded Ficklen Stadium, ECU'S compli- ance to oity and state regulations in regards to parking, and the future parking situation. A major objective of the committee is to familiarize stud- ents and citizens with the parking situations and the policies and regulations used. "Of course, our ultimate objective is to make parking less of a problem here at ECU and in nearby Greenville said Cox. Maya Percy Cox believes that the committee will be beneficial to those conoerned. "We do need to wak together on this said Maya Cox. "I'm very excited about it he said. "All we can do is try The committee is open to suggestions. If anyone has any ideas, please submit them to the SGA office. The first meeting of the committee will be after July 6. Experts predict more than adequate water for future By MARY PERRY Staff Writer V Local water experts have predicted that the area's water supply will be mae than ade- quate, at least fa the near future. Willie Pate, directa of the Pitt County Department of Environ- mental Health Services, said he faesaw no projected water shat- age. That department is respons- ible fa drinking water. "Most farms use reservoirs and ponds in which water was collected during the winter, thereby alleviating any strain on the public water system Pate said. O. Kelly Patton, a chemical analyst at the water treatment plant for the Public Works Commission, said only a severe drought would seriously hamper adequate water supplies. "A drought-connected wata shortage is possible, but the drougnt would have to be strong said Patton. "But if there is any water at ail, our new intake system could channel it Geologists say the water sup- ply is limitless, but that the problem is getting to it. According to the "North Carolina Atlas a comprehensive study of the state's geology, precipitation is the basic source fa water resources here. Nath Carolina has an average annual precipitation of 45 to 70 inches, an ample water supply as long as it is effectively managed. Good wata management and supervision are the keynotes in assuring an adequate and pure supply. In cases of natural a man- made wata disasters, the States Utilities Commission has ultimate jurisdiction, accading to Pate. "This agency requires that funds be available fa perpetual maintanance said Pate. C. Turnage, engineer fa the state's Natheastern Division of Natural and Economic Resources in Washington, N.C, waks in wata quality control section. Turnage's off ice collects wata samples in 22 counties, conducts field tests, investigates com- plaints of wata quality problems, and regularly inspects waste treatment facilities. So fa thae have been no chronic wata quality problems, accading to Turnage. "Accidents have occurred, but thev are acute See WATER, paged. HBBHHPBwH Page 2 FOUNTAINHEAD 29 June 1977 ECU enrollment increases By DIANE MASON Staff Writer Thirty-eight per cent of the student body is enrolled in the first session of summer school, the highest number ever, accord- ing to Diana Morris, of the Office of Institutional Research. The students, totaling 4,417, consist of 1,980 males and 2,437 females. Last summer's first session enrollment totaled 4,076, 35 per cent of the student body. Enrollment has grown steadily over the years. Fall of 1976, the enrollment was 11,696, consisting of 5,340 males and 6,356 females. In 1966, the enrollment was 8,834, consisting of 4,474 males and 4,360 females. Dormitories will be full for the fall, according to Morris. Last year, dormitory students consisted of 2,288 males and 3,234 females. Day students consisted of 2,852 males and 2,924 females. Two hundred males lived in fraternity houses, and 198 fe- males lived in sorority houses. The number of out-of-state students has decreased, pre- sumably due to the increased cost of tuition. In 1966, there were 1,573 out-of-state students and 7,261 in-state students. Last year, out-of-state stu- dents numbered 1,160 and in- state students had increased to 10,536. An out-of-state student living on campus in 1966 paid $234 per quarter. Last year, an c it-of-state student paid $831 per quarter. In-state student tuition was increased from $150 per quarter in 1966 to $281 per quarter last year. The largest percentage of out-of-state students came from Virginia, New Jersey, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, according to Morris. In-state students came from Pitt, Wake, Cumberland, Lenoir and Wayne Counties. Although the dorms are filled to capacity for fall semester, there are no plans to build more housing areas. All estimates point to 1980 as the leveling-off year, and de- creases in enrollment are expect- ed every year after that. Students in college now are the last traces of the "baby boom" of the 1940s and '50's. With the population growth now at 0, there will inevitably be a decrease in the number of students attending college. Group sponsors workshop By BULK EYES A Death Penalty Workshop sponsored by the North Carolina Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression will be held in Greenville on Saturday, July 16. In response to the state legislature's recent enactment of a new death penalty law, the Alliance will sponsor workshops around the state to inform church people and oommunity people of the facts regarding the institution of capital punishment, and to mobilize people and develop oommunity support fa those who oould be unjustly oonvicted and sentenced to death. Of the last 49 people executed in North Carolina all have been black, in spite of the fact that far more whites are charged with those capital crimes for which death could be the punishment, as a UNC-Chapel Hill Law School study points out. So the Alliance opposes the death penalty be- See WORKSHOP, page 3.) IF YOU CAN'T find your bicycle anywhere else, try the campus police station.

Students, employes attend sign language classes ECU NEWS BUREAU Approximately 130 employes and students at ECU are voluntarily attending sign language classes on campus in preparation for the deaf students ECU will admit in the fall semester. "Attendance in the classes. and interest in the welfare of our new deaf students in general, has been just great said Michael Ernest, director of ECU'S Pro- gram for Hearing-Impaired Stu- dents. "In sign language classes, there is normally a rather high drop-out rate, but we've had almost no perceptible drop in attendance during the first weeks of the instruction Ernest noted that he had expected at most 80-100 persons to begin the classes, which are scheduled at four different times on campus locations on Tues- days and Thursdays. About one half of those now attending are faculty and staff members, he said. "We are attributing the suc- cess of our manual communi- cation classes only partly to the fact that campus employes are receiving release time to attend class; the good turn-out is also due to the fact that people are really interested The four classes, identical in Classifieds for sale (0.

ECU has already accepted seven students with severe hear- ing impairments. Five, recent graduates of the N.C. School for the Deaf at Morganton, will enter ECU as freshmen, and two are transfer students from other campuses. Other applications are coming in. The ECU Program for Hearing-Impaired Students is one of a few of its type in the nation which enables deaf students to attend classes along with hearing students. The program will pro- vide classroom interpreters and other support services. Eleven ECU students who are already proficient in manual communication are in intensive training to become student inter- preters this fall. They attend three hours of classes each day, studying vocab- ulary development, technical sign language, reverse interpreting and other advanced skills. Meanwhile, the classes in beginning sign language will be repeated during the second summer session, said Ernest, and those who complete this session's classes may begin intermediate training. The basic sign language classes are free and open to interested persons in the Green- ville oommunity, and no formal registration is required. Further information about the program and the sign language classes is available from the ECU Program for Hearing-Impaired Students, telephone 757-6729. Convention speakers By CINDY BROOME News Editor Washington columnist Jack Anderson, New York Times re- porter Seymour Hersh and Lufkin News Editor Joe Murray were three of the speakers at the Investigative Reporters and Editors, Inc. (I.R.E.) convention held at Ohio State University June 17-19. Jack Anderson spoke at the Friday night dinner about the post-Watergate period and the fact that the press had shaken the beliefs of the people. "They would rather believe their institutions than us said Anderson. "It is said we have become folk heroes Anderson said, adding that now there is a movie and a television series about reporters. "We are riding high said Anderson. "We have been to the mountaintop However, because of Water- gate, there is a flood of reporters who suddenly want to be invest- igative reporters, according to Anderson. There is danger of some shoddy journalists in the pro- fession. "There are too many young reporters who want to be Wood- wards and Bernsteins over- night said Anderson. "They seize upon big names which may not be involved Seymour Hersh, New York Times investigative reporter, spoke at the luncheon Friday. 29 June 1977 FOUNTAINHEAD Page 3 Hersh wrote Watergate and CIA stories for the Times. He is presently involved in investigating white-collar crime. Joe Murray, whose Texas newspaper won the 1977 Pulitzer prize for public service, spoke at the luncheon Saturday. "Boy, are there a lot of ya'll out there was his first comment when he reached the podium. Laughter erupted throughout the room at the comment and at the Texas drawl. Murray's paper won the Pulitzer because of investigative stories on the death of a boy in Marine training camp. The boy was a borderline retardate and should not have been admitted to the Marine camp, according to Murray. The story walked in the front door, said Murray, as a boy brought the news to them. "They beat the boy's brains out, literally Murray said the boy told him. Ken Herman, then a Lufkin News reporter, now of the Associated Press, wrote the series of stories. Murray said his paper is now investigating nursing home con- ditions.

OUR SAVE US FROM ANTA B?MAr Forum Realtor adds facts to rent editorial To FOUNTAINHEAD: In regards to your "Easy Money" editorial in the June 22, 1977 edition of the FOUNTAIN- HEAD, please allow me to add my two oents worth. First of all, if you would check with the many real estate firms in Greenville, you would find that very few handle rentals at all. Frankly, the complexes and indi- vidual owners do not need the help of an agent because the units rent quickly and easily. We readily pass on any information of vacancies that we have, or refer inquiries to the only exclusive rental agency that is a member of the Greenville-Pitt County Board of Realtors! Our agency has handled the sale of several duplexes in the past twelve months. All have sold for $40,000 to $42,500 (building oosts, labor, developed land, and other oosts determine prices). When you consider that a pur- chaser will have to put up 25 cash ($10,000 of his money!) on a rental unit and that if he rents both sides for $165.00 per month ($330.00 total) and that his monthly mortgage payment will be from $240.00 up per month; plus, ne will have to pay city and county taxes, fire insurance and maintenance oosts, this can hard- ly be considered "easy money Of oourse, duplexes represent only a portion of the rental market, but I used this to illustrate that you did not have all the facts. I sympathize with the students and everyone else, including myself every month at bill time, who must endure the high oost of living. But, realtors alone cannot solve the housing problems any more than the doctors can control the price of medications at the drug store! I agree with you that with some less modern apart- ments the owners could afford to rent cheaper, still maintaining a nice profit, and give the students a break. I would be the first to applaud such action. The stu- dents are an important part of our oommunity that I, for one, admire and appreciate. Very truly yours, (Mrs.) Tish Byrum, Realtor D.J. Nichols Agency Student j condemn parking situation To FOUNTAINHEAD: On June 9, it rained. Being off campus students, it is necessary for us to drive to campus. We parked in front of Memorial Gym and discovered that what was last month's day student parking, had now become staff parking. This left us with two alternatives; either we oould go to the lot on the hill and walk the three tenths of a mile to our class or we oould go to the lot behind the Student Union and walk the six tenths of a mile to class. Either alternative left us walking in a downpour. It is important to point out the individual reactions to such a situation. For an institution to force a student to walk over half a mile in the rain (or in 15 to 20 degree weather as was the case this past winter) is the moral equivalent of saying that said institution cares not about the physical, psychological, emotion- al or social well being of the students, which in turn is equi- valent to saying that the insti- tution oould function without the students. To not meet human needs is to reduce those human beings to less than human status. This is dehumanizing in its primary state. We personally feel that the institution is suggesting that our needs are unimportant. As a result of this dehumaniz- ing process, the individual stu- dent's education itself suffers. It obviously suffers when students don't go to class, but in a broad way it suffers because the insti- tution does not oommand respect of the students. When personal needs of the students are not respected, those students have very real problems trying to foroe themselves to respect the needs and requirements of the school. Now, whenever a sensitive individual questions the institu- tion on this parking problem, two general reactions are heard. First of all, one reaction says that the school does not have the available funds for the necessary parking facilities and covered walkways to get the students out of the rain. This argument in essence says, "Let them eat cake The fact is that when an institutional effort is made for something necessary (like student parking) instead of something unnecessary (like perhaps a stadium?) this campus com- munity with support from alumni oould build a six or ten level parking lot at Speight and another one on the hill. The existence of the present fund drive for the stadium proves that the funds oould be available if the com- munity cared enough. A second argument to be dealt with is, generally the comparison to other schools, a quick rundown of the problems of N.C. State or U.N.C. This line of reasoning suggests not only a oontempt for ECU but also a misunderstanding of the operations of the North Carolina University System. We feel a certain sense of shame at having tolerated this dehumanizing as long as we have without speaking out. We per- sonally accept responsibility for having allowed this process to continue by passively participat- ing in it. Though we would like to see a change, we do not anticipate it. The faculty, through selective blindness, has been sufficiently desensitized to not only tolerate this process bdt to expect it to oontinue. The parking problem repre- sents a dehumanizing problem, which in the end result represents a study of self. Passivity begs dehumanizaticn. We have all tolerated it much too long, and we are somewhat less human as a result. Now after having cried in the wilderness, we slip back into our comfortable passivity. Per- haps it is true, as has been suggested, that men die not with a bang, but a whimper William Neil Bender Graduate Student HistorySpecial Education Diana M.

Lao and John S. Childers. The Lao-Childers study was based on questionnaires sub- mitted by 171 ECU students of both sexes, mostly freshmen and sophomores. The study revealed several significant trends: Males were more liberal than females in their attitudes toward new roles for women. Family background factors tended to influence students' attitudes; the higher the family income and the larger the high school attended by women stu- dents, the more conservative their attitudes tended to be. Their own mothers' roles did not seem a significant factor in the attitudes of the female students surveyed.

The attitudes toward women of both sexes was negatively related to how frequently the responding students attend church. "Considerable attention has been given to changing patterns of women's roles in present-day society commented Dr. Lao. "The grwoing awareness that women have their own identities and rights has led to sweeping legal actions to reduce discrimi- nation, but more importantly, it has led to a different attitude toward women. "Our study was directed toward the examination of the possible effects of the changing attitudes toward women among a group of college students in easter North Carolina A comparison of the results of the ECU study with previous st udies of other groups reveal s " a very traditional, conservative, pattern" fa the ECU subjects, especially for the females. The trent toward conservatism may be due to the geographical location and traditional orienta- tion of eastern North Carolina, said Dr. Lao. Studies of college students' attitudes toward women's roles are important as indicators of "significant future plans" among the students, relating to family life and employment patterns, she said. Dr. Lao and Childers reported on their research at the 23rd annual meeting of the South- eastern Psychological Association in Hollywood, Fla. Other ECU faculty members appearing on the SEPA program were Dr. Paul Deardorff, col- laborator on two studies relating to the use of videotape in simulated interviews and Dr. Williams F. Grossnickle, who represented ECU at an executive meeting of Psi Chi honor society, held in conjunction with the SEPA convention. Grant to establish Coastal Plains Studies Proa ram ECU NEWS BUREAU A National Science Founda- tion grant of $6,000 has been awarded ECU to establish a Coastal Plains Field Studies Pro- gram for students in the sciences. Proposal for the program was developed by Dr. James S. McDaniel, chairperson of the ECU Department of Biology; Dr. William H. Queen, Director of the ECU Institute for Coastal and Marine Resources; and Dr. Richard Mauger, associate pro- fessor of geology at ECU. The program is designed to coordinate studies in the biologi- cal and geological characteristics of the Coastal Plain region, field methodologies and techniques, and coastal plain development activities. Development activities which have brought significant changes in the coastal environment in- clude phosphate mining, large scale farming operations, com- mercial and industrial activities, and recreationall residential development. The program's first phase, revision of existing field courses in the Departments of Biology and Geology, began earlier this spring. WATER Continued from page 1. "Trucks carrying chemical cargoes have overturned, spilling chemicals into the water, and incidents have occurred in which certain materials were improperly discarded. "However, these incidents are relative easy to correct if we are notified in time The whole subject of water is surrounded in an ever-deepening controversy. Fish are dying now in Florida and the National Institute of Environmental Health Services found evidence that Durham's tap water was at least impure when laboratory rats and mice began producing fewer offspring and began having spontaneous a- bortions. According to the Institute, the defects stopped when the tap water was purified through fil- tration.

Come in and SAVE Some say chlorine and flou- ride pose an environmental threat when seepage into waterways occurs, and that alternative disin- fectants should be devised. According to TUrnage, chlor- ination has not posed a problem, at least in this area. "In the state's western trout areas, there have been some problems, since trout are very sensitive to chlorine said Turn- age. "But on the other hand, chlorine is toxic to humans if used in large quantities Patton commented that at present there is no firm evidence that current treatment techniques are overtly dangerous. "I'm aware that there is a lot of feeling that flouride causes cancer, but practically any chemi- cal used excessively is danger- our, said Patton. "For example, a woman in Florida died from drinking too much water, not that it was contaminated, just that she over-indulged. "But it is true that better treatment processes need to be developed simply because of the increase of pollution admitted Patton. "Essentially we are oper- ating on a system that is a hundred years-old, but improve- ments are being made constant- ly. Wate- quality is now control- led by both the federal and state government. Prior to 1972, states had full control of water quality. The drinking wate for Pitt County is taken from both ground and surface waters. Sixth-five per cent is surface water from the Tar River, and the other forty is ground water from deep wells a aquifer. m Artistic merit due Electronic Hoist By DOUG WHITE Assistant Trends Editor In reviewing new recordings of classical music, nne cannot review the music per se, because, by definition, the pieces are classics; their artistic merit is indisputable. Rather, the review- er must address himself to the question of the conductor's or musician's interpretation of a particular piece of music. This is especially true in the case of Isao Tomita's recording of Hoist's symphony "The Planets be- cause here the music is interpret- ed electronically, singlehandedly arranged and performed by Tomita. The symphony is divided into seven movements, each repre- senting one of the planets known at the time it was composed (between 1914 and 1916), ex- clusive of Earth. Hoist's re- ference point in composing the symphony was each planet's astrological character. These characters, however, served only as a point from which to build a theme for the individual move- ments. As his daughter once wrote, "once the underlying idea had been formulated, he let the music have its way with him The first movement, "Mars, the Bringer of War is martial in nature. The tone is set in the opening measures with a brutally rhythmic pattern, implying the mechanized relent Iessness of war. The music is simple, even primitive, expressing the com- poser's vision of war as an instinctive reaction. Tomita chose to preface this first movement with a series of radar blips that approximate a countdown and subsequent lift-off. The effect is condescending and cheapens the album. Tomita redeems himself, however, by his imaginative use of a battery of electronic equip- ment, adding power and strength to an already awesome work. In oontrast to the simplicity of war, "Venus, the Bringer of Peace is expressed in conplex terms. Beginning with a solo horn of unusual tranquility, and fol- lowed by converging chords of flutes and oboes, the music quickly smooths into a lilting melody of serenity, underscored by the gentle plucking of harps. Sinbad not bad By DAVID TREVINO Staff Writer There is a type of movie you can enjoy on a rainy Saturday afternoon in the theater crowded with noisy children which you probably would not return to see a few hours later with the girl from your nine o'clock philosophy class who thinks you are "deep Even though these films cannot be interpreted as timeless cinematic statements about the human condition, the do possess value as simple entertainment (Especially when you are buzzing around Greenville and the only other movie available in the early when noon is THE HERETIC). SINBAD AND THE EYE OF THE TIGER is one of these enjoyable forgettable films. It is not ROBIN HOODand Patrick Wayne (Sinbad) compares more favorably with an articulate cinder block than Errol Flynn, but it does have colorful costumes, exotic scenery, an enchanted prince, a beautiful princess, a wicked witch and enough monsters and special effect tricks to delight even the most discrimi- nating of ten-year-olds. SINBAD is a children's fantasy of mysterious castles and far away places. Too many of the movies shown in Greenville in- volve remotely adult fantasies of fast cars, sex, violence and conquering the "system" which rules them. Because it fails to make any pretentious or obvious oomments on society or cater to the frustrations of people who find it impossible to inject any meaning into their lives by any other means than vicariously experiencing absurdly contrived events, SINBAD AND THE EYE OF THE TIGER should be valued as a rare gem of film entertain- ment not to be missed. If you aren't quick you may miss this diverting movie. It is being replaced later this week by OUTLAW BLUES, a film about a country songwriter who gets out of jail in Texas, falls in love, gets shot, gets chased by police Tomita's synthesis of the opening horn is actually more effective than the genuine instrument, embuing it with a full, yet stark tone, lulling the listener into a state of profound relaxation. Tomita's electronic counterpart to a string section performs the unique task of providing a full sound without losing the original beauty of the natural vibrato of a solo violin. The third movement, "Mer- cury, the Winged Messenger is better suited to Tomita's key- board synthesizers than the orchestra it was composed for. The speed required is difficult even for the best of orchestras, making a keyboard of some sort the logical choice, by way of its facility for a rapid succession of notes. This is the shortest of the seven movements, and the most typical of Hoist's other works through its use of contrasting patterns, in this case the op- position of two simultaneous keys and two simultaneous rhythms. "Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity is similar to its pre- decessor Mercury in that both are well adapted to keyboard playing. Both are bright and quick, the former drawing heavily on English folk songs. Tomita's best interpretation is that of "Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age This movement pro- ceeds through a series of events leading up to an unexpected calm finish. The piece gives the impression of defeat, of hollow- ness in the openino chords. Here See JAZZ, page 9. METAL MINATAUR mechanically menaces man in meaningless movie.

All of the images in the novel had to be made delicately and slowly, that the reader might have a picture. There are novels that are termed, "cinematic which means they are easily adapted to the screen. They are written, with the material sense in mind. They are left ranging and vacuous being little more than freely interpreted dialogue. They are now being written by oome of the finest writers of our time. There is one that has been on the bestseller list six months. It is written by John Cheevers and the novel is Falconner. It is the theatric stay of a man, Farragut, much like Cheevers in age and appearance, is sent to prison for the second degree murder of his brother (which means in a fit erf anger or unpremeditated). He is an alcoholic, a drug addict since W.W.I I and a symbol of Cheevers' generation. He is mistakenly placed in a block with hard-oore (lifers, rapists) who turn out to be not so bad, as misunderstood. Falconner is the name of the prison. The book is replete and their oolorf ul names (Chicken number two, Bumpo, Cuckold) each with a sad and poignant story. It is hert, in the small hist or ies and anect dotes, that Cheevers is most effective. His creation of the sibling fights, parental mistreatment, - is greatly imaginative and he is often gentlest when he is lest tender. It is to Cheevers' detriment that he did not choose to be true to his genre. Hiswork, at itsbest is remarkably poignant. In Falconner when Farragut relates, (oratorically) when he is a drug addict, the novel is vibrant. Opium-eaters know. The fear of death is for all of us everywhere bi? for the great intelligence of the opium eater it is beautiTuiiy narrowed into the crux of drugs. This concentration is not consistent in the work. The author cheats in this version which does little more than tell the story sans images. Watch for the movie Faloonner it may well be a good one. All books courtesy of Central News and Card Shoo. Cinema BUCCANEER ONE The Heretic- Demonic possession gets yet another opportunity to bore you in this sequel to The Exorcist. An all-star cast induding Richard Burton, Linda Blair, Max Von Sydow, James Earl Jones and Louise Fletcher is used to explain why there ever was an original Exorcist movie. If you must go and see this film be advised that you are only encouraging the producers to make another of these grandiose bombs. If you are lucky there will not be any breaks in the film and you will be able to leave the theater in time to get home and watch The Munsters. It's time to tie the tubular bells. Two stars for the photography. PLAZA ONE Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo - From the people that gave us Bambi, Fantasia, comes another of those ridiculous movies about a Volkswagen capable of intelligent thought. (In many cases more intelligent than the Co-stars Dean Jones and Helen Hayws.( It is not funny, though intended to be slapstick, much of stunts are done with photography. It is another sequel gone sour. One star. PITT THEATER The Deep - The photography, particularly the footage of Jacqueline Bissett is the longest wet t-shirt contest in history. The plot is ridiculous as a young couple vacationing in the Bahamas stumble upon a sunken treasure, and 3 million dollars worth of bottle morphine. There's a monster here and there along with the Captain (Robert Shaw) of the last Benchly Water story, Jaws. This is still more oontrived than its predecessor which contained a mechanical shark. Two stars, both for Jackie's. PARK Final Chapter: Walking Tall - The poster for this movie reads, "Now there was a man That may be true but the question is what sort of man. This is the final episode in this trilogy of barbaric justice and it is comprised of the same senseless violence as the previous films. Buford Pusser is dead, and this film embarrasses his memory. One star, because one never says anything bad about the dead. PLAZA TWO Other Side of Midnight - It is a female fantasy concerning a woman and figures whose characters are reminiscent of actual people. (Aristotle Onassis). It is a film that attempts to justify the glamour of the jet set and its morality, until its end. The climax is interesting, if not very surprising. I give this film two stars, as the acting is fair, and the production excellent.

Nite Only Early Bird Special 12 Price Admission until 9:30 Last week "Up Front" took the stage. They are an extremely talented and versatile trio with their instruments including flute, conga drums, acoustic and elec- tric guitar, electric bass, Roto- tom drums, electric piano and sax. After doing a few rock flavor- ed numbers and suitably impress- ing the audience with their skill, the group introduced their female vocalist. Adele Foster. She began with Stevie Wonder's "All's Fair in Love a dieamy legato piece which she handled with a grace evocative of Bette Midler in her softer moments, or perhaps Streisand. She was attired in black open-toed heels, and a creamy orange three-quarter length dress vented to the knee. Large crescent-moon earrings dangled in her jet hair. This young woman proceeded to make magic entertainment. The songs were basically pop done as jazz although some of them were changed only slightly. In Mitchell's "I Am a Woman" and "Coyote" Miss Foster suc- cessfully imitated the song- writer's singing style (no easy accomplishment) and intrigued the audience with her intelligent interpretation of the songi' lyrics. What she lacks in range she more than makes up for in interpretation. Her voice is very smooth and full, one is almost tempted to say rich, and she never makes the unpardonable mistake of being too loud. She possesses an uncommon feeling for jazz which is evinced in her performance. After doing "Saturn" and "Another Star" from the album Songs From the Key of Life" Miss Foster left the stage. She sat at a table sipping warm water and appeared com- pletely ensconced by the music. The group closed the evening witha truly exciting jazz version of Wonder's "For Once in My Life It is a song rich with rhythmic possibility and Miss Foster realized much of it. Her verve and understated dynam- ism, enhanced by her tonal and rhythmic precision, made the song probably the high point of the night. The Bottomline is one of the few bistros downtown where waitresses actually come to the table. It seems their art is dying in most drinking places here.

Downtown CotancheSt. Phone 758-4354 Hours10A.M5:30P.M I with our family, those with whom we share fundamental ways of looking at life and attitudes which subsume more superficial dif- ferences. Sometimes it is difficult to recognize the basic similarities we have with our parents, be- cause while we have been dwell- ing in the rarefied air of aca- demia, with its at least implicit emphasis on liberality, they have in most cases continued to work at positions that they have occupied for years. For instance, my father is a product of a South in which there were definite values and priorities. By our generation's standards he would be called a bigot, but earlier more condoned and even propagated attitudes such as his. Even though it makes me wince to admit it, were I born about fifty years earlier he and I would probably share the same opinions that we disagree upon now. Also, my lack of formalized religious beliefs is a source of constant anxiety for my mother, even though our opinions of what is "good and "bad' upon examination turn out to be more than remarkably similar. Going back home for awhile fofers other insights as well, especially if one has been away for some time. The kid who used to ride up and down the street doing wheelies on his bicycle, I learn, is now an Army corporal and the little girl who used to plague me on the school bus has just had her second baby. We forget, that while we have been getting older and changing ac- cordingly, so have all those other young people who once populated our childhood. Usually we are surprised and a little unsettled to find that what a person has grown to be differs greatly from our now out-dated images of them. Younger brothers and sisters, whom we remember as just children, are now having the same sort of adolescent pressures and pleasures that we once had. Though we might try to distill our experiences into some sort of advice which would benefit them, the words, when and if they come, are disappointingly trite, and sound more like the sug- gestions and admonishments that our parents gave us, than we would like to admit. The saddest aspects of visiting our families after an extended absence is that of finding our parents visibly aged. One never thinks of his parents as being really "old Yet I notivethat my father's mustache is greyer than I remember, and that my mother's eyes are slightly more edged with lines. I shudder at visions of their senility even though I know that it is part of the ancient, perrenial human cycle. Every son and daughter must sometime take the awkward and often painful steps away from the family. These steps may be as violent as running away from home or as subtle as an aversion of eyes. Still, it is as necessary to win and maintain a respectful independence as it is to recognize the fundamental ties which, try as we might, simply cannot be broken. We are basically what our parents have made us, though we be very different from them. College is for many the step from post-adolescence to young adult- hood. Ah, the chance at last, to live out from under the parental roof. Still,if the life-style chosen by the young man or woman is different than that of his or her parents, the values reflected by their life-styles are the same. Thomas Wolfe's perspicacity in saying you can't go home again cannot be doubted. Yet, if that now cliche dictum is true, it is equally as important to remember that you can never really leave.

He did comment that although during the first week after the change the initial response to the change had been unfavorable. The result since that time Graham said has been an overwhelmingly positive reaction to the change from listeners as well as advertisers. Sources from within WRQR indicate that the change was brought about as a result of a need to acquire new sources of ad revenue.

Tomita's fault here is in being too abrupt, stating the music almost harshly. Instead of allowing the piece to fade imperceptably as in the original, Tomita ends his interpretation with a pleasant but out of place chime tune, destroy- ing Hoist's effect of drifting farther out into space. Tomita's interpretation as a whole is good. Though many of the passages lack unity, and too often Tomita indulges himself by showing off hisgadgetry, he stays close to the original score, adding a unique Japanese flavor to many pieces through his sue of sounds resembling Japanese instruments combined with more traditional Western instruments.

C emptor sales department. These sources go on to say that certain mer- chants refused to advertise on WRQR because they disliked the music and what they perceived as the "drug element which was attracted by it. So in an effort to gain the business of new ad- vertisers the format was changed to one of a more "acceptable" nature. Mike Robinson, of Floyd G. Robinson's Discount Jewelers, explained that his business would no longer advertise on WRQR because its format is duplicated on another more powerful station as well as numerous other available radio stations. Robinson said he experienced "good re- sults with the old format" which was unique for this area. Frank Ferree of Apple Re- cords stated that his store would continue to advertise on WRQR but at a reduced rate. Ferree was satisfied with the old format and felt that it was "ridiculous fa them to change As of now all of Apple Records advertising comes on after eight P.M. when live announcers return to the air. Despite station manager Graham's assurances that the overall response to WRQR's format has been positive there are indications that there may be a strong negative feeling as well. Now Jim's Station announcer and program director Allan Handleman has taken his weekly radio talk show, Forum, off the air because of bad listener response. Frank Ferree said that he had encountered absolutely no posi- tive reaction among any of his store's customers. Some people had come in with a petition to save the old format. This also happened two years ago accord- ing to Ferree when there was a successful drive to save WRQR from changing its format. During that drive WRQR received over 10,000 letters and petitions against any change in the music format.

But the real reason behind the new policy not to schedule in-state schools in football (other than conference teams) is that the Tar Heels cannot afford to lose too many games to lowly East Carolina. There will be four more games, starting in 1978 and running through 1981 But after that, Bill Cobey. UNC's athletic director, indicated that the Tar Heels would not play East Carolina. Carolina just has too much pride and is too stubborn to accept East Carol ma as their equal in football. And they want to deprive the sports fans of North Carolina of the game they want to see. There was a sellout of 49.000 for last year's game; but. if they had been a stadium of 60.000 a 65,000, the game would still have been a sellout. There are many reasons fa the suspension of the series that are under the surface. One is that Bill Dooley, head football coach of the Tar Heels, sees the fact that East Carolina can make a break a coach's job. There was talk that his job was on the line last year when the two schools met after the Tar Heels had come off a losing season. There are also rumors to the effect that N.C. State's Bo Rein and Duke's Mike McGee are facing must-win situations against East Carolina next season. It is said that loss by either coach could cost him his job. Another is that members of the Rams Club, North Carolina's athletic scholarship fund, have probably been putting pressure on the athletic director to get East Carolina off the schedule since the Pirates shot the Tar Heels down 38-17 two years ago. The Rams Club, which raises over a million dollars annually fa scholarships fa UNC athletes, has many coitributasthat give thousands of dollars. If enough of these members band together and threaten to pull their contributions out of the Rams Club, this will put pressure on officials to rid themselves of the embarrassment of losing to East Carolina. This is not the first instance of Carolina bowing out of athletic competition to save face. The Nath Carolina Collegiate Wrestling Tournament was started in 1969-70 and the Pirates won it fa six straight years befae team scamg was dropped in 1975-76. This past season the tournament was disbanded and replaced by the Nath Carolina Invitational. It has been the state collegiate championship tournament fa six years and ECU had won each year. But the embarrassment caused to State and Carolina was unbearable. In track, state collegiate meets have been going on fa years in surrounding states, but not in Nath Carolina. This reason fa this could be that Nath Carolina Central University, a predominantly black institution in Durham, would have run away (no pun intended) with the title in the early 70s, and that East Carolina and Pembroke State would have been favaed in the past three years. FANS LOSE Contrary to the belief of many sports writers (many who graduated from the Blue Heaven), the real losers in this bout will be the football fans of the state of Nath Carolina. The man on the street that spends eight dollars each on Saturday fa himself and his family to see good maja college football action is the big loser And this man will not pay eight dollars to see Carolina tip-toe through a 12-0 win over Nathwestern. Carolina has opened the proverbial Pandaa's Box, and with public opinion going against them, all they'll find will be a box of termites to duli the pale blue in Chapel Hill. CONATY WRONGED Pete Conaty, all-conference in both football and baseball this season fa East Carolina, was beaten by The Citadel's Brian Ruff fa the Athlete-of-the-Year honas in the Southern Conference recently. This marks the second straight year the all-America has attained the hona. Caiaty was ranked high in several categaiesin the NCAA statistics during the football season and was a star pitcher on the Pirates' baseball team. Ruff nudged out Conaty by a 20-17 margin. This can be attributed to a couple of things. One, since East Carolina is getting out of the conference, the writers did not want the Pi-ates to take all the honas after winning five league championships and the Conmissiaier' s Cup. The other is that the press in Nath Carolina has not taken part in covering the Southern Conference fa years. There are very few voting members of the Southern Conference Media Association from this state will dr � If By STEVE WHEELER SpatsEdita The game that has become one of the biggest rivalries in the state in football will be no mae after 1981. East Carolina and Nath Carolina, which started playing each other in 1972 and have had some intense games, will end their series after four mae games, starting in 1978. The University of North Carolina Athletic Council adopted a policy which was announced Thursday by their athletic directa, Bill Cobey, to The Daily Reflector. "We've met with the Athletic Council about scheduling in-state opponents fa football Cobey said. "And instead of being in a position to say yest to one school who wants to play us and no to another, we've decided not to pursue schedules with anyone other than Duke, Wake Faest and N.C. State. "We will hoia all existing contracts, however. Our football schedule is full through 1988 and it only includes four games with East Carolina East Carolinaathleticdirecta, Bill Cain, said his initial reaction after Cobey told him of the Athletic Council's decision was one of "shock and dismay "East Carolina University has paid its dues to the University of Nath Carolina, both on the field and in the stands Cain said. "We have provided them with a fine rivalry on the field each year and helped them fill their stands. "Thisaction will be depriving the citizens of this stateagreat rivalry between twogreat institutions Last season, the Tar Heels beat East Carolina 12-10 in a defensive battle befae 49.000 people in Kenan Stadium. Nath Carolina holds a 3-1 lead in the series which began in 1972. They took victaies in 1972. 42-17, befae 31.600 fans and in 1973. 28-27. befae 41.500 people. The Pirates only win came in 1975 by a 38-17 margin befae 42.000 fans. Pat Dye. Pirate head football coach, was baffled hy the move. "I just can't believe it Dye stated. "We go to Chapel Hill and fill their stands and have a tremendous in-state rivalry there. Last year's was a great oollege football game Pirates ATHLETIC DIRECTOR BILL CAIN was ��shocked after hearing that Carolina had made a policy not to schedule in-state non-conference foes in football. "I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE was head football coach Pat Dye's first comment after hearing that the University of North Carolina had dropped East Carolina in football after 1981. and I feel the next four will be. I certainly think we'll have sellouts. If they can aeate a better show fa their fans with someone else, then I don't blame them. But I don't believe they can do it. Cobey said that the new policy was not pointed at anyone, in particular. "Appalachian State, fa instance, has asked if we had an open date to please consider them. We find it difficult to say yes to one school and no to another Cobey added, "East Carolina has helped us out when we needed games, which we are grateful fa And I feel their football program has gained pretig� by playing us. Dye still objected, saying that N.C. State play, ECU but not Appalachian, while Wake Faest and Appalachian have a rivalry going. "I don't know who is responsible fa this, Dye oontinued. "But I think East Carolina playing Nath Carolina is mae important than one individual�m Bill Dooley, a Bill Cobey. And if I was at an institution like Nath , Carolina, with itstraditioi and resources. I wouldn't be threatened by the growth of a school like East Carolina. It's a game that needs to be played, not one settled by a group of people sitting around and marking it off with a pencil Cobey added that Nath Carolina has not played an in-state opponent in basketball in 20 years, except in playoffs and conference foes. "We haven't favaed one school over the other in basketball and I think people have been appreciative of the fact that we've treated everyone fairly With four mae games scheduled befae the prohibition, Dye should have no trouble getting the Pirates up' to play the Tar Heels.
