Approximately 2500 freshmen have been admitted along with 500 to 600 re-admissions, 850 transfers, and 200 visiting students. The remainder of the enrollment figure is made up looking onto this matter by explor One big factor in off-campus ac- comodations is that the people with the money to build do not want to overextend themselves. These peo- some requests for August that had pie are looking ten and twenty years been on the waiting list since November. According to Joe Laney of the Greenville Housing Authority, the future in student housing will lie in in the future when enrollment will doubtlessly decrease. The cause of decreasing enrollment is that which has plagued many educational in- stitutions for the past twenty years, the private market. ECU is already that is' the baby boom after World of continuing students There are expected to be 5500 students living in the dormitories. In some situations three students may find themselves assigned to one room rises, ing the possibility of leasing com- mercially owned apartments to rent to students. As it is, housing in Greenville has a vacancy rate of 1.8 percent according to Laney. Also, in the women's high Another interesting fact is the high the social rooms are being percentage of apartments compared converted to living quarters for up to six coeds per room. Freshmen are being given a preference in room assignments, but the rule requiring Freshmen and Sophomores to live on campus has been suspended for the 1980-81 school year. Another problem contributing to the overcrowded dormitory life is that increasing rent and utilities for off-campus living apparently make dormitory life more appealing to upperclassmen. Rent for a one- bedroom apartment usually ranges from SI70 to $225. A year ago, rent was usually between $160 and $175. Off-campus housing will be dif- ficult to find this fall. Eastbrook, Village Green and King's Row, which cater to ECU students were full for the fall. River Bluff, still has to all housing. Out of 12,000 units in Greenville, about 3400 are apart- ments or about one-fourth of the housing in Greenville. Rising con- struction rates and interest on finan- cing have slowed down apartment construction. Older houses are also available for rent to students, but they are often overpriced and suffer from landlord negligence, Laney said. Some low income housing is available to students if they meet certain requirements. The basic pro- blem lies in the fact that this type of housing is aimed at families. Mar- ried students could possibly qualify. ALso, a single handicapped student may qualify. But, unfortunately, the single student does not. Student housing is definitely a problem that will continue to grow. War 11. Since then the birth rate has leveled off and today's college stu- dent is on the last of the fringes of that boom. However, at the rate that Greenville is growing, this paranoia seems needless. But until enrollment decreases, Greenville will continue to be a tight squeeze for housing. ECU Athletic Director Named Photo by CHAP GURLEV Apartments Are Numerous but are expected to be in short supply this fall. Aztecs Lose Karr To The Pirates University officials announced July 11 that Dr. Kenneth Karr of San Diego State University will become ECU Athletic Director, ef- fective August 1. He will succeed Bill Cain, who resigned the post in May. Karr comes to ECU after more than ten years at San Diego State, where he was Athletic Director bet- ween 1969 and 1979. During his last year there, Karr was chairman of the Department of Athletics. While at San Diego, Karr brought Two Phases Of Renovation For Drama Dept. Building The renovations to McGinnis Auditorium and the other drama buildings are well underway. The completed project will be part of the new theater complex. "This will be one of the finest theatres in the Southeast said Edgar Loessin, professor and chairperson of the Drama Depart- ment. The renovations consist of two phases. Phase I entails the renova- tions of the auditorium and the ballet studio. This first phase is ex- pected to be completed in June of 1981 and will cost approximately $1.9 million, according to James Lowry, director of the Physical Plant at ECU. The second phase of renovations involves the other Drama Depart- ment buildings and includes the con- struction of a separate scenery shop. Phase II will cost about $1.12 million and should be finished in December of 1981, Lowry said. According to Loessin, the main purpose of the renovations is to pro- vide a good practical working place old theater complex was that there for theater productions. was no scene shop.

The renovation plans There were three main problems include a separate building the athletic program from a NCAA Division II standing in 1968 to a suc- cessful Division I contender. In 1977, San Diego's football team was ranked in the top 20, and its basket- ball team has competed in the NCAA Western Regional two of the last five years. The baseball team has averaged over 45 wins per season for the last four seasons. Karr said his first priority at ECu will be "securing a conference align- ment, especially for basketball and the non-revenue sports As in- heritor of an athletic budget that ended up in the red after the 1979-80 year, Karr has also expressed his concern for maintaining a balanced budget. "It's necessary to manage yourself well and build a cash reserve, and we did that at San Diego he said. In announcing Karr's appoint- ment, Chancellor Thomas Brewer said that from among the 655 can- didates who were considered for the Dr. Kenneth Karr job, Karr "clearly and quickly emerged as the most gifted and qualified to lead the program There are some similarities bet- ween San Diego's and ECU's athletic programs. For a while, San Diego's football team, like ECU's, was independent. Kerr's eventual success in bringing the Aztecs into the Western Athletic Conference was an important factor in his selec- tion as ECU's new AD, said Dick Blake, assistant to Chancellor Brewer. Also decisive in Karr's ap- pointment were Karr's record as an outstanding schedule negotiator and his across-the-board improvement of women's and non-revenue sports, Blake added. Karr left Greenville Wednesday morning for the trip back to California, but is expected to be back at ECU during the first week of August. with the old pointed out.

The new stage, according to Loessin stage will be much larger: 40 feet deep with a 32 foot wide pro- scenium, and a 40 foot wide wing space to store scenery. "It is much easier to produce big shows when you have room for scenery Loessin said. The second problem with the theater was poor sight lines. All of the seats did not provide good stage visibility. The number of seats will not be increased, but seating will be improved because of the better slope, according to Loessin. The new theater will have 670 seats and will provide facilities for the handicapped. The third major problem with the Also under renovation is the ballet studio. The floors are being redone to make them cushioned. Cushioning the floors will make it safer for the dancers to work on. The room has also been enlarged by knocking out a wall to combine two rooms. The dance studios will be completed by the time classes resume for the fall semester, Loessin said. "This is a complete plan said Loessin.

By TERRY GRAY New E4ilor If they can ever manage to get their machines twirling all over eastern North Carolina, the three men who own and operate Solar Breeze stand to make some money. Solar Breeze is a local, fledgling company with a franchise to sell a windmill manufactured by Enertech, a pioneer in the wind energy field. A few weeks ago, Rodney Hill, Bill Williamson and Matthew Boykin put up a working windmill to advertise the new business and at the same time, pro- vide energy for their offices, which are located on Highway 264 a cou- ple miles out of Greenville. But these July dog days aren't producing much of a breeze, and the windmill has usually been idle. Per- ched atop a 60-foot telephone pole, it looks more like a stranded Cessna engine than a lucrative business idea. Still, Rodney Hill said it has caught enough wind so far to generate a little of the electricity us- for outside energy. Of course, the amount of wind available in any given area deter- mines how economical the system will be for the buyer. Although the wind is free, the most economical windmill, including construction, comes with a five- to six-thousand dollar price tag. A key word in the wind energy ed in the small offices.

Basically,what the interested visitor finds out is that the windmill can cut electric bills by replacing part of the power that is normally supplied by the public utilities. it take for the windmill to pay for itself in terms of savings in the light bill? Under very good wind conditions � when the windmill can supply 60 percent of household electricity needs � Williamson calculates that the machine could pay for itself in just over ten years, based on current electricity prices and an average $70 monthly electric bill. The problem is that Solar Breeze cannot say with any certainty that When wind speeds reach 10 mph, prevailing winds in this part of the the windmill cuts on and begins state could ever be strong or steady feeding electricity directly into the home or business, reducing the need See DATA, Page 3, col.l National Scholarship Program Established For Cancer Nurses The American Cancer Society an- nounced this month that it has established a national scholarship program for nurses who intend to teach cancer nursing or to become clinical specialists in cancer nursing. Dr. S.B. Gusberg of New York City, the Society's national presi- dent, said that the new program will become effective in 1981. Each scholarship will cover annual sub- sistence and tuition costs in the amount of $8,000 for a maximum of two years of full time study in a graduate school of nursing. The awards will be issued for only one year at a time, but qualified ap- plicants are expected to be renewed for a second year. Up to ten new scholarships will be awarded each year.

Last week Greenville Area Chamber of Commerce's request for a referendum concerning liquor-by-the- drink was turned down by the Greenville City Council. This action prompted several Greenville area restaurant owners to circulate a petition of their own. However, it appears that the petition drive has run aground. According to Cliff Everett Jr chairman of the Pitt Board of Elections, the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board has certain statues regarding the pro- cedures for petitioning the ABC for a referendum. The statutes require that the party, group or in- dividual go to the board office and request a petition form, which the board then must supply and date. The petitions have to be circulated and returned to the board within 90 days, according to Everett. When the board issues teh petitions, public notification must be made that the petitions are in circulation, Everett said. After the petitions are returned, the board has 30 days to verify the signatures. After the petitionsa re verified, the board must hold the referendum within 120 days, he said. According to Everett, no one representing the restaurant owners has requested a petition. He said he was aware that the petitions were in circulation around Greenville. September 19 is the latest date the referen- dum could be held prior to the November 4 general elec- tion, since the law stipulates that the referendum cannot be conducted within 45 days of the general election. According to Margaret Register, supervisor of the Board of Elections, the petition group is unlikely to complete the necessary requirements and gain the need- ed signatures in time to hold the referendum prior to the November 4 general election. The earliest possible date for the referendum would be 45 days after the general election, she said. Photo by CHAP GUR.F 1 Liquor By The Drink .cocktails or brown bags in the future?

The board now has the difficult task of cutting $20,000 in order to balance its budget. The annual blood-letting process should take several hours and will undoubtedly leave some with a bitter pill to swallow. Thus far the board has tentatively approved the following activity fee split between the respective media: Buccaneer$72,215 The East Carolinian$44,725 WZMB$30,540 Rebel$15,443 Media Board Executive Council$15,005 Photo Lab$12,346 Although these figures do not necessarily represent the total budgets of each medium, they do show the amount of student activity fees that will be used by each divi- sion of ECU's media. For example, The East Carolinian has a total budget of $194,000, with $44,725 coming from student activity fees. example does not necessarily represent the budgets of the other branches. Some media, by their nature, cannot generate monies to support themselves; instead, they must be totally subsidized by the student activity fees. Every year the board must deter- mine if the amount of fees invested in a publication is meeting the needs of the students. One budget which deserves closer examination is the Buccaneer budget. Although the yearbook's budget is not the largest, it does re- quire the largest percentage of stu- dent activity fees � 45 percent. The $70,000 Buccaneer activity fee sub- sidy represents a 20 percent increase over the 1979-80 budget. The obvious question is whether the students of ECU want such an extravagance. No other medium has requested such a high subsidy nor one that ap- proaches $70,000. The East Caroli- nian reduced its student fee dependence by 22 percent this year. Last year the Buccaneer printed 7,000 yearbooks and had 1,000 left over. At an average cost of $8.60 each, roughly $8,600 was wasted. This year the Buccaneer plans to cutback the number of yearbooks to 5,000, yet the budget will increase $10,000. Even though every student is theoretically entitled to a yearbook, only one-third of the students can get one. The average cost of $14 per book is a lot of money, especially when all students pay fees but only 5,000 will be able to get a book. Yearbooks are a dying breed. Many schools have opted to discon- tinue their yearbooks because of decreased popularity combined with exorbitant costs. The Media Board should see the writing on the wall. The board cannot afford 20 percent increases each year. With the over- whelming majority of students say- ing, in effect, they do not want a yearbook, the Media Board should consider phasing out the white elephant of student publications. Registration Good Idea Monday will mark the first time since 1975 that adult males will have to register with the Selective Service. Registration shouldn't be confused with the draft. There will be no Draft Boards or Draft Cards to con- tend with. Only those who were born in 1960 and 1961 will be re- quired by law to register with the Selective Service. Registration will consist of filling out a short form. The registrant will be required to record his name, per- manent and current address, telephone number, social security number and date of birth. Approx- imately 90 days later, the registrant will receive a letter acknowledging his registration. Selective Service registration comes at a critical time when the United States cannot afford to ap- pear weak. John Collins, in his book, American and Soviet Military Trends Since the Cuban Missile Crisis, had the following to say about the U.S. Army compared to the Soviet Army: "A mammoth conscript army is the traditional source of Soviet general purpose force strength. Other services are subsidiary, despite the emergence of a modern air force and navy. The much smaller U.S. Army currently con- sists of volunteers. Quantitative gaps that favor the Soviet Union are great in nearly every category "Armies everywhere are still manpower intensive, even in this mechanized age. Active deployable personnel strengths thus are significant Soviet personnel, less commandsupport, now outnumber our own by almost three-to-one (1,722,000 to 598,000) Collins made these statements in 1978, prior to any events of the last 18 months, before the fall of Iran and the invasion of Afghanistan. It is interesting to note that his book was prepared specifically for use by Congress. Although the American Civil Liberties Union in an effort to stop registration is suing the federal government, registration will go on as planned. In every post office in the United States those born in 1960 and 1961 will begin registering Mon- day. Considering the consequences, it's a very good idea. President Carter's only fault may be that he did not institute the registration sooner. ur 00 bVLL HflVJ 0U� OLp VfUfT CAHJQ ?

Jesse Helms (RN.C), I would not under any circumstances refer to him as an embarassment to the state of North Carolina. How could any elected of- ficial, who legitimately represents the concerns and interests of his consti- tuents, be an embarassment to those who saw fit to put him in office? It also seemed irresponsible for a representative of the newspaper to refer to Sen. Helms as "Senator No especially in regard to maintaining a consistent approach to one whom has received editorial support in the past. Foolhardy reactionism should not be the policy of an editorial column if it wishes to maintain the respect of its readers. This country was founded on the principle of free speech and political debate, and Jesse Helms represents the ideology of one of the major com- ponents of our political system, the con- servative philosophy. If the country is to further grow, it must realize that a vital component of compromise is to recognize that one's political opponent has just as valid a conception of the world as the one we possess. To refer to Jesse Helms as an em- barassment is to deny him the respect that he has earned by becoming one of themost vocal supporters of his view of the American system. Though I do not agree with Sen. Helms, I respect his stature in the American political ideal. 1 regret that he was deemed an embarass- ment, and I am indeed embarassed that we should not have the proper respect for a great statesman.

Republicans 'all smiles in Detroit' By RICHARD GREEN Oawral Manager Andy kooney, the CBS commentator for the weekly news magazine 60 Minutes, attempted to explain the complicated pro- cess of nominating and electing a presi- dent. In a special edition of 60 minutes on Monday night, Rooney began a descrip- tion of each step of the process with, "It's just this simple but none of the steps ended up being simple, or even logical. His comments about the way we choose a president were amusing and confusing at the same time, but he stopped one step short of explaining who could be choosing the next president of the United States � the U.S. House of Representatives. Well, it's not really the House. Each state gets one vote, and it doesn't have to vote for the candidate who received the most votes in the electoral college. How could this happen? While the GOP Convention seems to be rolling along rather smoothly this year, the Democrats are far from unified. Teddy Kennedy and Jimmy Carter are battling for the soul of their party. The track record of the Democratic administration will be hard to live down with any 1980 platform. Likewise, Billy Carter's recent dealings with the Libyan government won't help matters any. And if predictions are correct, Independent candidate John, Anderson will gain the votes of dishearten- ed Democrats. Republicans are all smiles in Detroit this year because they think they have a can- didate who can win. To be sure, the GOP is more united for Ronald Reagan than it has been for any other candidate in its history, with the exception of Richard Nix- on. But some creaky planks in the 1980 platform and the choice of a vice presiden- tial candidate still lurk behind all those CITilME Phyllis Schlafly, of Illinois, a GOP leader of the far right, suggests: "We're smarter now, and more pragmatic Republicans are certainly smarter in that they have rallied behind the candidate who has received the most votes in the primaries. To strengthen the Democratic party, Kennedy would have been smart so drop out a long time ago, but he is stan- ding up for principles. The GOP is certainly more pragmatic now, having dealt sharply with such issues as abortion, the ERA, defense spending and social programs. Riding the tide of the recent Supreme Court decision on abortion would seem logical enough, but withdraw- ing 40 years of support for the ERA may hurt more than it will help. Increasing defense spending at the expense of social programs will certainly alienate less for- tunate voters, not to mention the kind of increases for defense. The Republicans want long-range bombers, which probably couldn't make it past Soviet defense systems; more sea- launch cruise missiles, which would in- crease the national nuclear stockpile; and the MX system, which will be obsolete before it is completed. More so than the Democrats, the Republicans have overlooked the force which makes the U.S. Armed Forces tick � personnel. How does all of this affect the choice of the president? Both major parties could drive voters to the middle of the road, the Independent party, and the result could be that no candidate will receive a majority in the electoral college. What happens then? The issue goes to the House of Represen- tatives where each state casts one vote for the candidate of its choice, and the one receiving a majority of votes becomes the president of the United States. If the Republican platform and the Democratic disunity and track record drive a significant number of voters to the In- dependent party, the final decision could very Ukely be made in the House. In 1824, the House was forced to decide between Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams because there was no plurality in the elec- toral college. Henry Clay, third runner up in that election, was the verv powerful speaker of the House, and he used his in- fluence to elect Adams over Jackson, although Jackson received more popular votes. If Ronald Reagan should in without a majority of the popular vote, a predominantly Democratic House could choose Jimmy Carter for a second term. Of course voters could simply go with a winner instead of a candidate they feel will do the best job, but there is good chance that the people will not choose the presi- dent of the United States in this tumultuous year of 1980. And that isn't simple or logical. tW SO mt�ALIU6 T& VOTERS, Vi th Hcx)3Mi6irrHflvrTD EtfcrTViC ff�Svejr.

Hap- py employees are more productive and more productive employees make for a more profitable business. By JON YUHAS sisianl Kralum Kdilor Welcome to the world of thought control. "Big Brother the insidious voice that followed Orwell's protagonist about in 1984, is here now. Even on cam- pus, right here at ECU, you are not safe. He is in every major shopping area and restaurant in this country. Of course 1 am speaking of Muzak � or any of the canned boredom that is broadcast into public areas. Muzak is a private corporation that sells franchises throughout the world. Every city and town in North Carolina is covered by one of the Muzak franchises. The local outfit is located in Kinston and covers ten coun- ties. Muzak is the largest company of its kind in the world. There are Muzak franchises in Europe, Asia and South America. Any competition that the company has is strictly on the local level. Here in Greenville, for in- stance, the competition is from the area radio stations; W1TN and WGBR offer background music services, as does Capital Broadcasting Company in Raleigh. Muzak's headquarters is in New York and employs a full-time staff of psychologists and psychiatrists who analyze music and change it to eliminate heavy beats and distracting vocals. Then the Muzak orchestra records the new music and a tape is circulated among the franchises around the country. This year, however, the company is going to satelite broadcasting and in the next few months the tape system will be eliminated. In- stead, each Muzak franchise will receive the same music, which will be played simultaneously in every business that subscribes to the Muzak service. Muzak is also broadcast into some industrial firms because a recent study done at Black and Decker's home plant in Pennsylvania shows that Muzak increases worker productivity. Muzak in Rocky Mount services approximately 50 industrial firms and approximately 300 firms total. Joe Warner, operator of Muzak of Rocky Mount, says that his operation is a small one. Imagine, then, the number of firms that a large opera- tion in a highly populated area would service. According to Warner, the music is stripped of anything that is potentially distracting. "Anything that makes you tap your feet or makes you want to sing along" would not be appropriate to the Muzak mission and is therefore eliminated. The purpose of the background music is to motivate the listener subconsciously. So-called foreground music � that broadcast by commercial radio stations � com- mands conscious attention. Muzak creates a feeling of well-being and warmth without ever making the listener aware that he is even listening at all. Happy customers spend money and are more suscep- tible to sales pitches. Happy employees are mc e pro- ductive and more productive employees make for a more profitable business. The secret of Muzak's effectiveness is its appeal to the subconscious. If a person concentrates on listening to the music, then the spell is broken; the sound is bland and dull and the effect created is the opposite of the one intended. The feeling caused is anything but well-being and warmth. The listener becomes angry or disap- pointed and is not a happy shopper or worker. When Muzak goes to satellite the effects will be far- reaching. Imagine, all of the customers in all of the businesses and industries that receive Muzak will be hearing the same music, or more importantly, not hear- ing the same music, but being affected by it nonetheless. These people take music by modern composers such as Lennon and McCartney and Jim Morrison and even Bob Seger and turn it into something completely unrecognizable, at least as music. Then they use it as a weapon in the commercial wars that go on every day. Your mood is being manipulated while you ride in elevators, talk on the phone, eat in restaurants, and shop in department stores. How long before THEY come into your home, pushing a dope that is as addictive as any now available. Big Brother is getting closer. Muzak brings on the days of 1984 with a new "Big Brother" that watches you in the mall andsome take it docilely while others react with angry violence. Alternatives To The Old-fashioned Wedding ByJ.C. BARDEN r� orW Times NEW YORK � When Mary Sheehan and David Naka began planning their wedding earlier this year in Washington, her parents were expecting to pay for a formal wedding and a reception for more than 100 guests. But the longer the couple looked into the costs of a reception the more disenchanted they became with the idea of having her parents pay about $5,000 for an afternoon of food and drinks. What they did, instead, when they were married last month was have a families-only wedding and set aside part of the money her parents would have spent on the reception. "My parents wanted to give us money when 1 told them how we felt Mary Sheehan said, "so we're investing it in the money market and maybe will use it later to help pay for a house They are just one of many young couples who are do- ing something different instead of having the bride's parents spend thousands of dollars on weddings and receptions. They range from the couple's splitting the costs themselves to letting the bridegroom or his parents pay for everything. And sometimes, like Mary Sheehan and David Naka, they prefer the money rather than a reception. All of this is perfectly proper, according to Letitia Baldrige, who amplified and updated "The Amy Vanderbilt Complete Book of Etiquette" (Doubleday, $12.95) two years ago. "Who pays for the reception or whether the couple takes money instead should be based on common sense and need instead of tradition said Miss Baldrige in an interview. "But this is the one time to do it up if you can afford it and you want to The tradition of the bride's parents paying the big bills related to a wedding is one "meant to change in an in- telligent fashion she wrote in the revised version. It already has been changing, under the influence of the women's movement and women's increased earning power, along with the inflationary economy. A young couple who married several years ago in a New Jersey college town paid all of the costs of their formal wedding and a reception. "My father offered to pay for everything said the woman, "but that would have meant having the wedding four months later and 500 miles south of where we wanted to be A caterer on Long Island said he began noticing the changing style in who was picking up the reception tab six or seven years ago. Sonny Dee said it had reached the point where he found that roughly a third of his recep- tions were paid for by the bride's parents, another third by the bride and bridegroom's parents, and most of the rest by the bride and bridegroom. Then there are the oc- casional cases in which the bridegroom or his family pays for everything, he said. "A lot of these young people will live together four or five years before deciding to marry another caterer said, "and when they do they just don't feel like their parents should pay any of the costs They are saving the parents a lot of money. There were 2.2 million marriages in the United States last year and even in the least expensive areas of the country a reception with food and champagne will cost $25 per person, according to Miss Baldrige. And Bride's Magazine reports that its 300,000 readers spend an average of $2,500 on receptions. A top-of-the-line price for a reception in New York City can run $100 a guest when catered in the home. When the prospective bride and groom or their parents don't agree on who is to pay for what in advance, as ad- vised by Miss Baldrige, it can lead to some fractious and embarassing confrontations. "I sometimes feel like a premarriage counselor said Abe Yamali, president of Dover Caterers.

The group's history sounds like a synopsis of the rock and roll generation � a rollercoaster ride of good times and downfalls and a 17-year state- ment of survival. The Who are the most brilliant expression of the most influential "youth movement" ever to take Great Britain, the Mods. Their career began in Sheperd's Bush, a lower class suburb of Lon- don, and took them through such places as Brighton-by-the-sea, scene of the great Mod- Rocker battles of the early sixties. Their first recording was "My Generation Peter Townshend, the well-known guitarist, is the group's main force, the author of most of their material, the composer of most of the music and the impetus behind the Who's stylistic stance.

There are still plenty of young people who want "old-fashioned weddings and receptions with all the trappings according to Madeline Kanyon of Convent Station, N.J who knows from her contracts with them and from practical experience.

But perhaps the largest department at ECU is the Department of Downtown and Partying. This course of study is among the most grueling, exhausting, expensive and time-consuming of- fered at any university in the world. Some excerpts from the introductory DAP textbook will give you an idea of what the students in this department have to go through. I. Required Supplies To stay in the Downtown and Party department, one must invest a great sum of money in supplies. A refrigerator is necessary for storage of study and research equipment and supplies such as beer, wine and various mixers. A valid college I.D. card is needed to gain admission to the classrooms downtown. Specific courses require various supplies, which will be discussed later. II. The Courses - foundation DP majors must complete rigorous course re- quirements. If you join this department, you must suc- cessfully complete such tough courses as: Beer Appreciation.

While the Outer Banks was the site of the earliest attempt at colonization in the Carolinas, that same area was later to be characterized by its isolation from the rest of colonial America. It became a prison for persons shipwrecked on its shores, a haven for pirates and other cut- throats and eventually home to a hardy breed of folks who still betray a trace of their Elizabethan heritage in their speech. Much of that early Tidewater Carolina heritage can be ex- perienced in a long weekend trip, crossing the sounds and rivers on the numerous automobile ferries operated by the state Department of Transportation. This fleet of barge-like boats effectively bridges the waterways that for cen- turies were barriers to communication bet- ween the isolated com- munities of eastern North Carolina. By using these fer- ries, one can spend a leisurely three days circling most of the 3,600 square miles of water in Tidewater North Carolina. Begin by crossing the Neuse River where it empties into the Pamlico sound. The ferry landing is not far from Cherry Point Marine Air Station at Havelock. A 20-30 minute ride brings one to the north shore at Minnesott Beach. A few miles east is the village of Oriental, a fishing village that is fast becoming a Living At ECU Summertime, and the living is easy.

For those who chose to avoid the Neuse River ferry, continue north on U.S. 17 from Wilmington to New Bern, site of the Tyron Palace, the colonial capital of North Carolina. The restored colonial mansion is open for public tours and is also a pleasant first stop on the Tidewater Tour. The next waterborne leg of the tour starts at Aurora on the southern shore of the Pamlico River. The ferry will deposit you on the nor- thern shore just east of historic Bath.

Booze History. This course covers the history of alcoholic partying, beginning with mead and continuing with ale, rum, rotgut whiskey and bathtub gin. Special emphasis in the 1980-81 term is on medieval and baroque tavern brawling and its evolution into the American saloon fight. Tour Philosophy of Partying. An introduction and inquiry into the intellectual motivations and philosophical questions that trouble partyers. Chugging. Beginning students learn skills and methods of chugging. To pass successfully, the student must chug a keg of beer in twelve seconds or less. III. The Courses - Major Departments After successful completion of the foundation courses, the student may apply for admission to the upper school. He has his choice of several ma- jors including disco, barhorping, rednecking and hanging out. A few upper level courses will be discussed here. Disco Dancing I, II, and III. Students master the skills of the bump, the "hustle etc. Instuc- tional films such as "Saturday Night Fever" are included. The Poetry of Disco. Members of the English faculty discuss and explore the themes of man's loneliness and alienation in an industrial society; mortality and insignificance in an infinite universe; and the existentialist crisis, as treated in such masterpieces as "Macho Man "Get up and Boogie" and "Disco Duck Cruising Around. This course covers sitting in parking lots, outrunning police cars, and shooting mailboxes and dogs, as well as basic mechanical skills, such as souping up engines. Problems in Barhopping. This graduate course includes a field trip to New York and Los Angeles, giving experience in partying situations in other cities. Introduction to Punk. This new course covers punk fashions and music, as well as the lifestyle. Required materials: leather jacket, safety pins, punk buttons, and a diet of pizza and beer. Students must be experienced in smashing disco records. Overall, the Downtown major suffers more hardship than any other student. The booze survey class often costs 150 dollars a month. The weeklong parties required in Partying II leave the student no time for his unimportant general col- lege requirements; often, they don't have enough time to even get a good grade in Library Science. All-night beer socials ruin TV-watching, as well as take their toll on the students health. If you want to just have a good time and take crip courses here at ECU, this department is not the one. Pick something easy, like nuclear physics. home there and, in- deed, his wife was from this small town on the Pamlico River. The notorious pirate was finally in a battle with British ships in the waters near Ocracoke Island in 1718. Bath celebrates its connec- tion with the pirate in an outdoor drama presented Thursday through Saturday in the summer months. The visit to Bath over, resume your eastward tour through the villages of Swan Quarter, Englehard and Stumpy Point. The drive along U.S. 264 toward Manteo shows a sparsely populated region where livelihoods depend on fishing and farming. An alternate route for your tour would take you by ferry from Swan Quarter to Ocracoke Island on the Outer Banks. But that alternative would re- quire precise planning, as the ferry only operates twice daily. If you continue to Manteo on Roanoke Island, the history of the early attempts to settle North Carolina awaits in the dramatic presentation of The Lost Colony. One of the most popular and long-running of North Carolina's outdoor dramas, the play is in its 40th season and is presented June through August. Only a short drive away are the beaches of Nags Head, Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk. There one can climb the highest sand dunes on the East Coast at Jockey Ridge � or fly a hand glider off its summit. Nearby is the site of the world's first machine-powered flight, where the Wright brothers loosed man from the bounds of earth. A small museum depicts the event in pictures and exhibits, including a replica of the plane. Turning south on the Outer Banks, the traveler soon en- counters one of the sen- tinels of the Carolina coast, the Bodie Island lighthouse. The lighthouse itself is not open to the public, but there is a small nature museum on the grounds for the public. Next follow Oregon Inlet and the first at- tempt to connect the shifting sands of the Outer Banks by bridge. The high span bridge is the subject of con- troversy years after its completion because the changing inlet now threatens the multi- million dollar span. Much of Ocracoke Island is part of Cape Hatteras National Seashore, as is much of Hatteras Island. At the extreme southern end of Ocracoke Island is the village of Ocracoke. also said to have been a pirates' haunt. The town has several in- teresting restaurants to offer the traveler, as well as a few motels for those who want to sta overnight.

Who Continued from page 5 Generation" to "Quadrophenia" to the drugged-out crowds at their concerts. Certainly, the changes will continue. Pete Townshend calls their history "A great knapsack � you carry it around, and nobody ever empties it But it is that sense of history, that survival instinct, that seems to pick the group up and carry it past the bad times, no mat- ter how tragic. And so the Who carried their "great knap- sack" into the Greensboro Coliseum and played to a sellout crowd on July 13. But it was their music and not their history that brought the crowd to its collective feet and kept them there. Willie Nile opened the concert with his own brand of the Dylan-Forbert-Springsteen style of music. The crowd was still filing in, resembling a cloud of bees hovering over a honeycomb, as they tried to find their seats. There was a tension in the air, an expectation of something to follow, as Nile played through the main portion of his only album. And then came the chant for the Who, a rising scream from the crowd. The lights were shut off and the crowd watched as a band of survivors walked on the stage. Daltrey and Jones were dressed in jeans and t-shirts, looking like two average college students, Entwistle was clothed in a red suit, which set him off from the rest of the band, and Townshend in a bluejacket looked all the more like a rock and roll hero. Picking up their instruments, they sized up the audience for a moment, and then flashed into a musical repertoire few bands can equal. The Who played what the audience had come to hear � rock and roll classics like "Substitute" and "I Can't Explain two of the earliest Who songs; a medley from the rock opera, Tommy; and the anthems "My Generation" and the recent "Who Are You Some of the songs the Who played were over 15 years old, but they played each one with a rawness and a savage edge as though they were discovering it for the first time. I Added to the great music was an unbelievable light show which increased the excitement flow- ing through the arena. The concert reached a climax with "I Can See For Miles" and its breathless harmony. At the end of the concert, the crowd seemed drained of energy. The houselights came up and everyone slowly left, having savored over two hours of Townshend's leaps, Daltrey's dancing and good music. They got what they wanted - ?eXi,ent r0ck and ro11 concert- And so, the Who Odyssey continues. WESTERN! SIZZLIN Don't East Carolina Summer Theatre This Summer! Two Delightful Comedies!
