Draft renewal debated
TO ALL OF ou who made it?
CONGRATILATIONS!
Marc Barnes appointed
as new editor by Board
By CHARLENE CARTER
Staff Writer
Last Thursday evening, a small
group of variouslyOpinionated persons
met for an informal discussion
concerning the possibility of renewel
of the military draft. The featured
speaker was Mr. Bill Sholar, who
opened the meeting with a brief
statement of why he was opposed to
the draft, and then opened the floor
for questions and discussion.
In his opening remarks, Bill
Shnlar explained that he served in
Army Intelligence for eight and a
half years. He helped plan strategy
for attacks and counter-attacks,
usually against the Russians.
Part of his job was instructing pilots
in safety procedures when they were
in danger of being shot down by
enemy planes.

Editor at Fountain-
rhe editor for
Fountainhead for next
year will be Marc
Barnes. Barnes is
presently News Editor
o t Fountainhead,
and served as editor
during the suspension
oi Doug White, present
editor of the paper.
In a meeting of the
Board held on April 24,
several decisions were
made concerning the
photo lab, and the
Rebel.
The Rebel asked for
and received an appro-
priation to develop an
edition to be called
"The Best of the
Rebel Whisnant and
his staff will be devel-
oping the volume during
the summer, though as
yet there is no definite
publishing date.
The Photo Lab re-
ceived its appropriation
to do it remodeling
work during the sum-
mer. The Lab had
asked for funds to
remodel the Lab so that
it could accommodate
more than one person
at a time comfortably.
The BUCCANEER
alo aked lor an ap-
propriation to have
printed 2,000 more
Buccaneers than the
had anticipated. Craig
Sahli, editor of the Buc
pointed out that he
expects more of a
response lor the Buc
than had been pre-
viously anticipated.
Ii the Buc does not
print the extra editions
during their regular
printing, and it proves

At this meeting, the
Board also named a
new Chairperson. Eva
Pitt man was named
Chairperson for the
1979-1980 school year.
This is the last issue
of FOUNTAINHEAD

His job gave him access to
classified top secret documents, from
which he discovered that the training
he was giving to pilots was
ineffective for life-saving.
When he confronted his superiors
with this information, they informed
him that the pilots were not
classified to receive the information
necessary for survival, but that they
had to be instructed in some type of
recourse, even if it was ineffective -
in order to "reassure" them.
This encounter led Sholar into
deep consideration of what he
considered to be right and wrong,
after six months of difficult soul-
searching, he declared himself to be
a conscientious objector. He received
a discharge from the Army on these
grounds, and shortly therafter began
to attend Quaker meetings in Chapel
Hill. At one of the meetings, he
learned that the directorship of
Fayetteville Quaker House was
opened; he applied, and got the job.
One of the main purposes of
Quaker House is the counseling of
military persons who are having
trouble in the military. Almost all of
the persons counselled have not been
informed by the military of their
existing rights in their various areas
of disstisfaction. Sholar spoke of one
case, which involved a young man
who had become severely mentally ill
and was having black-outs, but he
could not get a discharge, even with
a psychiatrifs approval, because his
superior officer did not "believe" in
psychiatrists.
Sholar said that he is opposed to
the draft because he believes that
the number of people presentlv in
the Amed Forces is adequate, and
that in the event of any threat to the
United States or Eastern Europe, the
situation would become a nuclear war
within a matter of a couple of days,
and there would be no need for large
numbers of draftees, who would be
trained as infantry men. He cited
that opinion of experts who confirm
this. He believes that the Army want
the draft so that it can stage
"another Vietnam in third-world
countries -uch as Africa. In fact he
was told this by an aide of Senator
Moragan, who is proposing one of
the draft renewal bills now pending
in Congress.
Scholar spoke briefly about the six
bills which are pending. The bill that
main people believe has the best
chance for passage is H.R. 23,
introduced on Januarv 15 by Rep.
Charles E. Bennett, D-Fl. This bill
would require commencement of
registration of young men by October
1, 1979; the Selective Service would
no longer lie a civilian operation, but
would become part of the Defense
Department; also, the Privacy act
would be amended to permit the
draft agency to obtain registration
data from schools and government
agencies.
The Joints Chiefs of Staff support
a bill introduced b Rep. G.
"Sonny" Montgomery, D-MS, on
February 8. This bill calls for the
registration of men and women at
age 18. The bill mandates the
induction of up to 200,000 men into
the Reserves each year.
H.R. 2078. introduced by Rep.
Charles Wilson. D-TX, calls for
induction of men for training and
service in the rmed forces during the
period of Julv 1, 1979 to June 30,
1981.

review
By MARC B A RISES
News Editor
This is a reflective time for all of us here in the
office. We are saying goodbye to each other, and
goodbye to FOUNTAINHEAD, a confusing,
frustrating, but ever present source of entertain-
ment, headaches and potential ulcers to us all.
It has been a hard year of having to say here at
the news desk too late at night, having to eat a
gourmet dinner out of a paper bag. and having to
answer to over 10,000 different opinions about how
this business should be operated. We have received
nagging phone calls late at night, self doubts in our
own minds in the wee hours of the half awake
mornings.
We have endured the suspicious stares of
roommates who do not understand, and we have
heard from our parents-who want to know the
are really black eyed beans.

In the article, Dr. Singer urged that cults be
legally mandated to fully describe their identity and
the nature of their activities before approching
schools or communities.
The psychiatrist asserted in the Journal: "The
whole question of the first amendment and what it
does and doesn't protect bears closer examination a
the result oi the cults. Manv of our most
prominent legal philosophers are already beginning
to take a look at the issues involved and are
considering what are the legal rights of families

FOUNTAINHEAD
vs. the Media Board
The basic conflict between FOUN-
TAINHEAD and the Media Board is
the issue of who controls the contents
of this newspaper. As journalists, of
course, we steadfastly contend that
the only control, outside of legal
sanctions concerning libel and obscen-
ity, on a newspaper's content rests
with the staff of the paper, usually
the editor. The Media Board, not
surprisingly, claims that they, as
publishers, have the same say-so over
content as Katherine Graham has over
the Washington Post.
FOUNTAINHEAD's internal struc-
ture is such that one person cannot
unilaterally set editorial policy.
FOUNTAINHEAD's Editorial Board,
consisting of the seven highest
ranking staff members, has the power
of veto over the editor.
The Media Board's argument,
heavily influenced by Chancellor
Brewer's autocratic opinions about
campus media, is flawed by the
obvious fact that they are not a
private property owner, as Katherine
Graham is. They are a government
agency in the sense that they are
charged with the responsibility of
appropriating state funds and oversee-
ing how they are handled, and no
government agency can ever be
allowed to have any voice in what a
newspaper is allowed to print, nor can
they be allowed to tell a paper what
to print.
The latter point mentioned is
where the conflict has arisen, al-
though there were intimations of it
earlier when Dr. James Tucker, dean
of Student Affairs, informed us that
we would not be allowed to print
liquor advertisements since it was
contrary to an "unwritten" university
policy. In other words, they were
reprehensible to him. FOUNTAIN-
HEAD has and will continue to
publish ads for liquor or any other
product as we, and we alone, see fit.
In an April 20 story about
FOUNTAINHEAD Editor Doug
White's suspension, in the News and
Observer, a statement attributed to
former Acting Chairperson of the
Media Board Hal Sharpe said "the
content of individual editorials and
news stories in the newspaper had
little bearing on the suspension. But

the general news coverage provided
by the campus newspaper did enter
into the board's decision This is a
blatant infringement on the first
amendment rights of both the editor
and the newspaper.
The primary purpose of the Medic
Board is to supervise the fiscal affairs
of a medium and select the best
candidate based on his qualifications
as a journalist, or photographer, or
broadcaster, as the case may be.
Attempts to forbid staff members
from expressing their opinions in
Forum the illegal suspension of an
editor, and other infringements or
attempted infringements on the rights
of free speech and a free press are
only the more flagrant examples.
There have been and there still are
very subtle attempts on several fronts
at slowly eroding the editorial
independence of this newspaper. One
member of the Media Board went so
far as to privately suggest, in all
seriousness, to a staff member that a
member of the board look over each
edition of the paper and apporve it
before it is sent to the printers.
There can be no greater insult to
a journalist than for someone to have
the audacity to suggest that someone
approve, and thus accept or reject,
anything in the newspaper. The
paper would lose any respect it has
among its peers, and would recall the
days of the first newspapers published
in colonial America, which were
required to bear the stamp "Pub-
lished by Authority Not surprising-
ly, these papers were seldom if ever
critical of the government.
The concept of a media board is a
valuable, yes, even practical one, but
the board is hampered by a
constitution riddled with loopholes and
major omissions, along with the
frightening views of Dr. Tucker,
Associate Dean of Student Affairs
Rudolph Alexander, and Chancellor
Brewer.
FOUNTAINHEAD is dedicated to
defending its constitutional rights as
well as it can, but the odds are
stacked against us. If we are to
maintain our editorial integrity, we
must stand our ground. It may cost
us a few editors, we may end up in
federal court, but anything is better
than losing these precious rights.

Necessary media revisions
The Media Board is modeled after
the Student Union Board of Directors,
but the constitutions of the two
organizations are quite different. The
Student Union constitution provides
safeguards for the president which
could easily be adapted to the Media
Board and make the decision-making
process and the balance of power
between the Media Board and the
media much more equitable.
Just as the Student Union presi-
dent is an ex-officio member of the
Student Union Board of Directors
without a vote, so should the heads
of the various media be voteless
members of the Media Board. What
harm can there be in adding
powerless members to the board?
There can, however, be great
benefit with these media heads sitting
on the board. It would be impossible
to hold secret meetings to discuss a
medium, as has happened in the past,
without that medium head knowing
about them. They could also freely
lend their expertise in board discus-
sions, just as a voting member can.
The procedure for amending the
constitution should also be revised.
Some scheme should be devised
giving media heads some voice in
ratifying amendments to the Media
Board constitution. Not necessarily a
controlling voice, but they should be
able to have some say-so in ratifying
an amendment.
These changes will weaken the
power of the present board only
slightly, if at all; they will still have
the upper hand. They will merely
give the media heads a more active
role in conducting their affairs.

That the American people are apathetic about
politics is hardly news to anyone anymore, except
maybe the seventh-graders who come bursting out
of civics class with enthusiasm for our system in
which everyone can participate-and who have yet to
learn that it's going to be difficult to find anyone to
? talk to about it.
It takes time for change to become visible in a
political system representing over 200 million
people. Have we watched so much TV that solutions
that aren't "instant" take up too much of our time
now? Maybe we are being too easy on ourselves.
But one thing is certain-political apathy is very
beneficial to the powers that be, and very deadly to
the people they supposedly represent.
Many people say that they don't want to get
involved with politics. "It's too dirty "Too
crooked "It doesn't do any good "Not getting
involved is my form of protest these are phrases
that are heard a lot these days. There's no doubt
about the "dirty" and "crooked" part, and "it
doesn't do any good" has an element of truth in it
many times.
But (to paraphrase Pontiuis Pilate), "not getting
involved is my form of protestthat's the one the
crooked politicians like the most. Everyone who
takes this stand is essentially giving the bad guys
free reign to do whatever they damn well please.
And anyone who won't get involved has no right to
complain about anything.
y What many of us Americans fail to realize, is
that everything which affect8 . arge numDCr 0f our
people is political, even if it has never been
mentioned in the Congress. The very air we breathe

Bv JEFF ROLLINS
Trends Editor
Chris Farren, an English major and senior at
East Carolina, has been one of the most active and
consistently entertaining performers that Greenville
ha seen in a long time. Tuesday nights he
generally packs the downtown bistro where he sings
and plays guitar and electric piano, in fact, for his
tans and many others Tuesday night has become
the traditional night to hear Farren play.
Last Tuesday night this reporter spoke with
Chris during several of his breaks. He is friendly
and quick to smile. His curly blond hair shines in
the orange lights of the night club. Flushed from
singing, Chris sits down at the table with a cup of
hot tea (which he says is good for his throat).
His last number was one that was real jazzy,
that involved a lot of scat-singing. He visibly
jumped up and down as he sat at the piano striking
the up-beat chords, which prompted me to ask him.
rH Chris, you have a lot of energy when you
play, where do you get it?
ci Most ot the energy that I have on stage comes
from the fact that I just love to sing, and I'd rather
be doing that than just about anything else I can
think ol. Specifically, it comes from seeing someone
in the audience that you want to perform for and
other times when I perform my own songs there's
energy from within that comes from doing my own
material.
r H Speaking of your own material, how would
you describe what your songs are like, as to themes
or major ideas.
CF Unfortunately, I write mostly about love and
while it is the most universally over-worked theme
it is -till the most inspirational. I try to break away
from writing about love and write just about the
things around me thatt affect me, but the majority
n tunes are about love-lost, love-gained, love in
limbo.
r H How would you classify you songs as to
genre
CF There's very little distinction anymore in
music I think. The lines between different' kinds of
music are just too blurred, with all the cross-overs
that have occured in the past decade. But my
are basically acoustical, they have an
accoustical jazz flavor and for some reason there's a
lot ot latin influence in my songs but don't ask me
where it comes from, I have no latin heritage at all.
ith that Farren got up to do another set,
which included a song by Dan Fogelbert, The
Eagle "Lying Eyes" and a terrific rendition of
Van Morrison's classic, "Moondance" among other
songs.
FH hen did you start to write your own songs
and ha- your style changed since then?
CF I began writing seriously in high school and
surprisingly enough the songs written are not
drasticalT) different from the ones 1 wrote last
week. Perhaps a bit more mature, perhaps a bit
more musically sophisticated, but mv old songs
don t stick out from my new ones. When I play
my oW songs, one I wrote six years ago, one I
wrote three years ago and I wrote recently there's
not that much difference. My style of playing has
changed a lot more than my style of writing.
FH How has your style of playing changed?
CF M influences have always been extremely
divere. In high school in a period of one year I
played in three different bands, one a country rock
band, one a strictly blue-grass band and one a jazz
quarter. So when I started to sing solo there had
been a lot of music in my background that had
affected me. Just like everyone's musical taste has
changed over the past five years so has mine. And
I play what I like at the present time which
dictates the way I perform the songs.
When I was a Freshman I was singing a James
Taylor song Id try to sing it as James Taylor
would, whereas three years later and I sing that
same James Taylor song it might be with a totally
different flavor.
FH A flavor that is more of your own making?
CF I certainly hope so.
FH I think that shows a level of maturity in a
singer, when the singer begins to interpret a song
in his own way, rather than trying to copy the
original artist's style.
CF You can learn a lot from the original but I
gave up trying to be a great guitarist or a great
piano player or a great singer a long time ago
because there are too many people that are better
than me. It is my hope that my musical strengh
lies in my writing and creativity.
FH So then you think you'll continue to write?
CF God, I hope so, yeah.
Fh You mentioned that you had a lot of music
m your background, what are some of your
strongest musical influences, both in what you
write and how you perform.
CF Everything goes through stages. Four years
ago I wanted to act, sing, look and plav like Kenny
Loggins but then the influences started' to mesh. I
listened to a lot of Jose Feliciano and Kenny
Rankin. Michael Franks has affected me some. And
most recently Al Jarreau and Michael McDonald.
And many others, Todd Rundgren, the soft Rodd
Rundgren. A lot of my piano-songs are affected by
him (Rundgren( but my guitar songs aren't.
FH Your tast in music tends toward the soft
rock and jazz genres. Do you find that audience
responce to this kind of music is as good as their
responce to harder rock?
CF Sure, but only if it's the right kind of
audience.
FH Do you find any differences in ther
audiences you've performed in front of?-
Chris Farren
CF Yeah.
FH tor instance.
CF The audience totally dictates the mood.
Unless you decide your just doing to be oblivious to
it, which you can't do. If you're good enough you
can put the audience in the mood you want but
sometimes that's impossible. It all depends on how
much they want to listen and how much they want
to do whatever else they are doing in the bar or
club.
FH When did you begin to Play?
CF You have to specify. PIay what as a soloist,
or an instrument?
FH I guess what I'm asking is when did you
first get into the making of music?
CF I began playing piano when I was four years
old and took for nine years. I gave up the piano
when I was thirteen to play the guitar because at
that age going home to practice the piano just
didn't cut it with my friends while playing guitar
was "real cool I never took guitar lessons but
just learned for myself, everywhere I saw someone
playing guitar I watched really closely and I found
out that you could learn a lot that way. Even from
people who weren't as good as you. I played
numerous other instruments through junior high and
high school and performed in a lot of different
bands.
FH When did you realize that you wanted to
play solo?
CF At college I didn't have much other choice.
Because there were too many other things going on.
Bands take a lot of time and I'm selfish with my
time and also selfish as a musician. I mean like I
like being able to dictate exactly how the song is
going to sound and trying to do that in a band is
unfair.
FH How much do you generally practice a song
before you perform it?
CF Usually not very long. If it's a song I like I
learn it quickly. If it's a song I havr to learn
for one reason or another I learn it slowly.
FH How much of your repertoire do you choose
for yourself and how much for your audience
CF Ideally, I'd like to play all for myself and
hope the audience will enjoy it too, but there are
certain songs that a soloist invariably must learn to
play to please the audience whether he likes it or
not. If you play a song that vou don't like it's
usually obvious, it's hard to cover.
FH Do you compose on the piano or guitar or in
you head or how?
CR Well, most of my songs have been composed
on the guitar but recently I've tried to re-aquaint
myself with the piano. And am trying to write more
at the piano now.
FH What known bands have you performed
with:
CF I've opened for the Firesign Theatre, Andy
Pratt and the Sanford Townsend Band and a few
other semi-known recording groups but those were i
m big places and my style is definately better in
smaller places. College doesn't give much time to
play which leaves you only the summers to perform
lull-time.
FH Why do you like smaller places better?
CF I'm a soloist and I can only make so much
noise, somuch music with one guitar and one voice
Seems to be easier to fill a small room with that
music than a larger place.
Chris took a sip of his tea and got up to do
another set. His voice is a breathv baritone-alto.
Watching him perform,the audience semed to sense
some of the energy he was emitting from the stage
Several times, after a difficult cadenza on the
Yamaha piano or a particularly funkv passage of
scat-singing, the audience interrupted his
performance with applause and shouts.
wamHtoDh? OU HaVe an 3dvice for stude" -ho
want to become entertainers?
CF fc ell, I thiak someone needs to g,ve me
some advice before I sttftghanag k out. , ?
to sing and I guess if s6mr ??es to sing thev
should sing. g ?
FH Chris, what are your plans for the future a
lar as your music goes? '
CF That's something everyone, and most
?mportantly my mother, would like to know and
even more than her, me. I think she wants me to
be a lawyer or something but I figure as long as I
can sing and make a living at ,t and enjoy h I'm
going to do that for awhile. J "
FH Which is most important to vou, singing or

from ECU among
features three ' fi
By LLKE WHISNANT
News Editor
Th,s year's second issue of Tar River Poetry
available next week from the Student Supply Store
and area bookstores, features work by nationally
known poets, writers from as far away as
Montana -and three ECU students.
Randy Stalls, a graduate student in the ECU
writing program, draws the imagery and subject
matter of his poem "Peaches" from the background
of the rural south. Stalls' laid-back, free verse
rambling could have benefited from a more careful
employment of enjambment and some punctuation
for clarity 8 sake, but the relationship between the
narrator and his grandfather is drawn nicely "A
salt-and-pepper granddaddy and his knockneed
grandson journey to the farmers' market to buy
peaches "for parch-lipped Negroswho rose from
peanut-stack fieldsin a dry September dusk The
fourth paragraph bears quoting-the boy and the old
man connive to unload bad peaches on their tennant
farmers:
Under an umbrella elm
in a Penecostal churchyard
we sorted peaches
in pine-strip-and-chicken-wire
bushels placing the biggest
on top and hiding the bruised, but saying:
"There may be a few overripe ones in the lot
smiling at one another from the comers
of our eyes.
But when the grandfather dies, he is carried off in
the long draped hearsebed. . .
as the Negroes who owed on time
stood by saying:
"We was gwan settle up wid Mista Ernest next
oat day.
seeing one another from the corners
of their mouth.
Senior English major Jo Ellen Rivenbark's poem
Harvest also draws from the rural southern
experience. The narrator remembers watching her
father p.loting his combine through a soybean field,
Once he seemed to fall
when he jumped
from the harvester
into the crewcut Field:
first to his knees and then
with arms outstretched
on his face.
It would have been
a momentous death
but he rose quickly
running to the car
with a dove
he had caught in the spell
of his huge headlight.
He made us watch
as he pulled off the head
and wrapped the stump
with a white paper towel.
I can still see the opened belly-
that tight wad of soybeans
Daddy spills from its body
night after night after night.
Both "Harvest" and Rivenbark's love poem
Hanging out Clothes" are built of tight, imagistic,
beautifully understated lines. Both poems indicate a
mature command of rhythm that many of
Rivenbark's contemporaries would do well to
acquire.
Sue Aydelette's peotry needs no introduction to
readers familiar with ECU's literary scene. Her work
speaks-firmly, fully-for itself.
To My Successor, Upon Relinquishing My Job as
As Vegetable Cutter:
THE SECRETS:
There are white roses
in the center of each red cabbage.
The smallest petals are the shape
of finely veined shells
But cut them last.
They bleed invisibly
on your blades and your board.
They will 8Uin the dead white eggs
blue, and show blood-red
on the sharp yellow lemons.
I am leaving the shiney percussion
of knives ,n straight rows of silence.
I am leaving this apron
the green watery color of cucumbers.
I will lock the doors
And walk through my breath
into a morning where already
up the hill, lines of girls
ZZlE yaWning and brac,n themselves
into their daytime postures,
walk, watching each other.
The slick red ski-jacket
and the blue wool blazer in front.
The tap and sigh behind.
Florescence and laughter
will fill the warm halls with us
sifting white paper and secrets.

Fugue in G. This work
i- probably a product of
the composer's Weimar
period where, in 1703,
he became violinist in
the orchestra of a
brother of the Duke of
Saxe-Weimar. The short
prelude is constructed
ol a single motif of four
notes, with a pause for
a long pedal solo. The
fugue with its surfeit of
sequences goes on
unswervingly spinning
it course, semi-gravelv,
semi-facetiously, without
ever distancing itself

The 1979 Lady Pirate Softball team closed out
their campaign Monday splitting a double-header
with Methodist College in Fayeteville.
The Bucs dropped the first contest 7-5, but
regrouped and captured the finale 5-1 behind the
powerful bat of Cindy Meekins.
In the fifth inning of the second game, second
sacker Janis Parlon reached first base on a fielder's
choice and was advanced by Maureen Buck's single.
With two out, Meekins legged out a three-run
homer to put the Pirates ahead for the distance.
Donna Eason added a homer in the sixth and Marv
Bryan Carlyle was batted in later in that inning bv
Parlon s double.
Methodist took an early 1-0 lead in the second
when Debbie DiDoIci singled and scored Lois
McPherson grounded out.
Methodist's only other scoring threat came in the
final frame when, with two out, DiDolci singled
Angela Fields singled and Reichelderfe singled to
load the bases. The comeback was silenced,
however, when McPherson grounded out to end the
game.
in the opener, Methodist jumped on ECU pitcher
Mary Bryan Carlyle early in the first inning and
established a 5-0 lead.
Lead off hitter Elaine Adams reached base on an
error, as did Sally Steele. Dee Smith singled and
ratti Weever lashed out a two run one-bagger. Liz
Chiles got to first on a fielder's choice and later
scored on DiDolci's errorred grounder.
ECU's Teresa Whitley singled in the third and
scored as shortstop Mary Powell received a
three-base error. Powell also scored when Brown
reached first base on an error.
The Pirate bats again came to life in the fifth
when jan McVeigh went to first on one of
Methodists eight errors. She was pushed across
home by Robin Faggart's single. Whitlev also
singled and scored in the rally.
The big offensive punch of the afternoon came
ini the seventh frame when freshman centerfielder
Shirley Brown smashed the Ladv Bucs first
over-the-fense homer of the season '
Brown leads ECU batters wh a .386 average.
