"We can't do it all alone said Bill Whichard, director of Housekeeping at ECU. "It takes everybody working together Whichard said. "If students would police up and keep their rooms clean, it would enable us to do a better job "We can't completely get rid of the roaches, but we can control it said Whichard. According to Whichard, there are several things that attract the roaches. "Dirty dishes, crumbs and ?cod scraps on the floor, and empty drink containers sitting around will attract them Whichard said. Trash cans which are dirty or have food scraps in them can also attract roaches and ants said Whichard. "There are trash cans in the bathrooms of each dorm that are supposed to be used by the dorm students for food trash "Even cheap books, when damp, can attract roaches be- cause of the glue in the binding commented Whichard. "Ants are also a problem Whichard said. "Anything sweet will attract them. Keeping foods, especially sugar, in airtight con- tainers would be helpful Dan K. Wcoten, director of Men's Housing, said that the pest control problem became worse when cooking was permitted in the dormitories around 1970. "A lot of the complaints are about roaches said Wcoten. Wcoten said that maintenance sprays about every two weeks. "Students should sign the pest control sheet with their name and room number when they want their room to be sprayed. The sheet is usually posted on a bulletin board in every dam said Wooten. Wcoten said that spraying is not overly effective when the M students are in the dorms. "For a thaough job we need to do every roan in every dam. We can't do evay aack a crevice while the student is living in the roan said Wcoten. "The best results are in the summer when we can get into every corner while the students are gone Wcoten added. Raid or Black Flag could be just as effective.

Photo by Troy Moore) Sessoms nominates McCourt for post By ROBERT SWAIM Advertising Manager SGA President Neil Sessoms yesterday submitted the name of Kevin McCourt to the legislature for approval as attaney general. The legislature did not act on McCourts nomination. Kevin McCourt plans to re- sign from the attaney general position when he is approved, according to a source within the legislature. The source said that Mc- Court's reason fa resigning is to open the nomination to Ricky Price, one of McCourt's political colleagues. SGA Vice President Reed Warren said that such a move (by McCourt) would not surprise him. It has been rumored in the legislature that McCourt will seek executive office this spring. During new business Legisla- tor Randy Ingram questioned the seaet nature of the chancel la selection process. Ingram introduced a resolu- tion requesting SGA President Neil Sessoms to repat to the legislature on the chancella selection activities. Ingram alleged that secret meetings have been held to discuss the chancella selection and said that the legislature should be infamed. Speaker of the Legislature Tommy Joe Paynr said that no seaet meetings have been held by the SGA officials to discuss the See LEGISLATURE p. 3 ����"�JJEACHs Photo by Troy Moore) Students visit Costa Rica By STUART MORGAN Assistant News Edita Fran July 26 to Oct. 26, 17 students from ECU attended the Universidad Nacional at Heredia, Costa Rica. Guillermo Saenz, a teacher from the Universidad Nacional, originally planned and later coa- dinated the trip with Dr. and Mrs. Robert E. Cramer. The exchange program was originated in 1973 by Saenz and Cramer. Dr. Cramer, famer chairman of the geography department here fa 13 years, organized the group of 17 students and arrang- ed fa their accanrnodatiais in Heredia. Later, both he and his wife supervised the activities of the group thae. Each of the students rented rooms in the homes of various citizens of Haedia, a city north of San Jose, fa 85 dollars a month. That cost included meals and laundry service. Participants in the groups visited several places in Costa Rica, including Cartago, the ralamanca Range, Quepos, San Jose, dam sites, banana planta- tions, tobacco factories, and even a few volcanoes. The students who went were; Dan Dolan, Darlene Strange, Chuck Hill, Julie Sazama, Henry Peddle, Daothy Easley, Brad Lingg, Linda Krause, Ann Massengill, Buddy Caddell, Kelly Fugate, Gus Wilson, Martha Fisher, Troy Mcore, Cathy Deal, Mark Daily, and Diana Reese. Costa Rica is a relatively small country of 19,575 square miles, located in Central America, nathwest of Panama. With a population of 1,875,000, Costa Rica has mana- ged to maintain most of its natural beauty. "It's virtually unspoiled; the natural beauty of Costa Rica still exists Martha Fisher said. Asa result, the mrtto of Costa Rica is "The.Complete Country While attending trv univa- sity, the students were able to take courses such as: tropical biology, history, geography, con- versational Spanish, and socio- logy.

As part of that course, students were required to keep journals and ISee COSTA RICA p. 6 Mason, Welch twin concert bill fails By DOUG WHITE News Edita The respaise to the Student Union concert survey was "over- whelmingly in fava" of having a double bill concert featuring Dave Mason and Bob Welch afta spring aeak, according to Charles Sune, chairperson of the Popular Entertainment commit- tee. "The concert, howeva will not come about due to the fad that two aha schools have already booked the two available dates Sune said. The artists were available either March 13 a 14, but these dates have been contracted by West Virginia Univasity, in Morgantown, and the Univasity of Kentucky in Lexington. The survey registered 439 in fava of the concert and 20 against the conoen. "I hope students can apprec- iate the difficulties we encour.ta in trying to attract groups to ECU. " w ith the demands by groups fa more money, difficult contract demands, and with a relatively small coliseum in which to present concerts, its hard to attract big name groups Sune apologized fa getting students' hopes ucandpromised equally good conoerts in the future. The committee is currently finalizing negotiations with agents fa Styx and has booked Arlo Guthrie fa a concert in Wright Auditaium Feb. 13 and jazz pianist Mary Lou Willaims for a concert in MendenhaJI Feb. 20.

MBMBPOBBBMO n 24 January 1978 FOUNTAINHEAD Page 3 POLS professor offers alternate idea for overpass By JULIE EVERETTE Assistant News Editor An alternate plan tQ solve the problem of students crossing the 10th St. intersection would oost a fraction of the overpass idea, according to Herb Carlton, assoc- iate professor of Political Science. "I don't think students would use the overpass Carlton said. "I also don't think the over- pass plan would solve the bike problem Carlton said he had witnessed the rescue squad come to accid- ents at the 10st St. intersection five times. "Every accident except one involved i bicycle Carlton said. Aooording to Carlton , the overpass would benefit the hand- icapped and blind students. According to Carlton, most accidentson 10th St. involved left turns. LEGISLATURE Continued from p. 1 chancellor selection. "Contrary to most legislators' beliefs, it is not up to Neil to initiate discussions or meetings concerning chancellor selection said Payne. He is bound to secrecy and he can t just come and tell the legislature everything that is going on. It is a matter that some legislators don't seem to under- stand said Payne. In other business Craig Hales, SGA treasurer, reported that $20,676.30 is left to appropriate. A bill to sponsor retreats was favorably passed out of the Appropriations Committee, ac- cording to David Cartwnght. chairperson of appropriations. Cartwnght said that he was in favor of the bill since SGA now has enough money to fund it. Correction The story on artists Jane Abramsand Samia Halaby in the last issue of Fountainhead con- tained errors, saying the exhibi- tion of their works is sponsored by the SGA. The exhibition is sponsored by the Art department with funds from the Visual Arts Forum. Samia Halaby appeared Jan- uary 19, not January 24, as reported. Jane Abramswill present her lecture January 24, at 3 p.m in the Leo Jenkins Fine Arts Audi- torium. Both artists are associate professors at their respective schools, not assistant professors, as reported. Abrams was asked to do a one-woman show at the Martha Jackson Gallery, not allowed. Also, her work has been descri- bed as "hi,r,KXOus and erotic not neurot Fountainhead apologizes fa any inconveniences. "My idea is to eliminate all left turns at that intersection Carlton said. "The left turn is a typical problem. No left turns at that corner would help a lot "I think the median on 10th St. should be continued past Maple St said Carlton. According to Carlton, the present entrance to the campus off 10th St. should be closed up and a new entrance constructed at the far end of the parking lot, by the TKE house. "There would be a small expense to the state to continue the cement median said Carlton, "but it would oost a fraction of what an overpass would cost We also need a fence put up to stop jaywalkers to protept-them Carlton said.

May said in Thursday's FOUNTAINHEAD that more money will probably be needed in order to complete the renovation. Last summer, the student supply store was renovated with a $400,000 loan, and renovation on the snack bar began with the remainder of that loan. The loan was paid back with funds normally earmarked fa academic scholarships. May did not say where the money which will probably be needed will come from, but it should be no surprise if some academic program here feels a financial cutback in order to pay for the completion of the new snack bar. When an institution of higher learning discon- tinues academic scholarships to pay for the renovation of its student bookstore, a certain priority is being misplaced. Many students could not attend college if they were not awarded these scholarships. Concern for the lack of academic scholarships here at ECU is missing, especially from the administration. According to May, the bookstore area had to be enlarged in order to house the large quantities of books which needed to be on display, rather than in the storage room-especially at the beginning of each semester. This reason is understandable. However, when the money is taken from such a needed area, perhaps another method of financing should have been considered before making such a drastic move. Unfortunately, the damage has been done. According to Robert M. Boudreaux, financial aid officer, the academic scholarships will not be reinstated. He said it is hoped that the National Merit scholarships will be upgraded, and more students will apply fa this scholarship. Fa the snack bar to be finished soon would be nice, but fa any area on campus dealing specifically with academic funds to experience any financial cutback would be disheartening to those who are enrolled here fa academic purposes. Academics is supposed to be the main concern of a university. Money financing the snack bar renovation should in no way affect any funds set aside fa academic purposes. When a university ceases to show concern fa the academic program, then the purpose a university is supposed to project is a lost cause. Mideast talks hah When Egyptian President Anwar Sadat made his dramatic visit to Jerusalem in November, it seemed to many people in the Middle East and to the rest of the wald that peace was lurking just around the caner. However, President Sadat recalled the Egyptian delegation from the political negotiations in Jerusalem last week, and Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Menahem Begin called off the trip of a delegation to attend military talks in Cairo. The two issues causing the friction between the two nations are Israeli withdrawal from occupied lands and the Palestinian issue. The peace talks are tempaarily off, but U.S. Seaetary of State Cyrus R. Vanoe said when he returned to Washington Sunday that he expects the talks between the two nations to resume in approximately one week. Hopefully, the two nations will resume their peace talks soon and oontinue to try to resolve the problems which have plagued the Middle East fa so Jong. TTT BBATS THE HECK OOT OF UlG5lNG OrTcMR Forum Reader lashes out at abortion editorial To FOUNTAINHEAD: Re: Federal funding of Abortions, 1-17-78. Mae than anything, I was saddened by your over-simplified approach to the analysis of a woman's right to self-deter- mination. Abortion should be n- option for all women(and their men). Pregnancy can not be a sword of Damocles held by the wealthy over the head (or should I say the uterus) of poor women. Abortion is medically safe. Because of a very low incid- ence of complications, (in legal abortions, which are, of course, what we wish to see encouraged) hospital records show the pro- cedure is statistically safer than pregnancy-to-term andor birth. Now to your editorial. Of each tax dollar received by the government the largest part is returned to the taxpayer in the form of services, ideally to benefit the quality and availablility of resources to all citizens. However, the next largest part of the tax dollar goes to "defense spending. Through the Wood-ooJored glasses of the military we are euphemistically assured our tax money is promoting national security. But it really means we are promoting the development and deployment of war "toys" with their ever-present spectre of destruction of human life on vast and impersonal scales. Quote: "Should taxpayers' money be used to benafit a select few?" forced to pay for something they do not believe in?" Question: What about people who currently pay the taxes to develop the roads you so glori- fied, yet don't believe in cars; who may not even OWN a car? Who do the roadways benefit? Hmmm? Taxes for education you say ever talked to a rural farmer about mileage taxes? Hmmm? Do you think you oould go up to Alexander County and get the farmers to side with the influx of young families to vote fa the desperately needed inaease in themileagetax? Hmmm? Ever wonder why public education in N.C. isn't wath two oents? Hmmm?? If public education on sex and oontraoeption is such a good idea why hasn't it been vigaousiy prompted and FUNDED fa the last 200 years? Why isn't it suocessful today? Sure it gets a lot of lip servioe but we have no unified approach to x education which should start by the fourth grade; preferably earlier. At 13, it's a little late to close the barn dcor.

I do not pretend to be versed in such economics, but one FACT stands out: "It costs$40,000-plus to raise a child from birth to 18 and this figure is increasing yearly Changing Times magazine) In a poor family, where is all this money going to come from? Of course, there is always the idea that poor families should be kept poor by forcing them to have children. The middle-class must protect its position after all? Well, the answer is that money is going to come from you and I, the taxpayer, and will be used to support prison facilities, rehabilitation centers, welfare, medical expensesetc. It will be A LOT of money. There are literally a million alternatives which the child of an unplanned birth might command from a family who can give nothing. Thus, if that child can not be responsible for himher self, all society becomes respon- sible for that child's existence once heshe is born. Clearly, the federally-funded abortion OPTION is in the best interest of everyone. Re: The quoted poll claiming a 'national" consensus against federally-funded abortions.

KimStacey Graduate Student Jesus Christ saves at EC ToFOUNTAINHEAD: I went to the basketball game last Thursday, between East Carolina and the Athletes in Action, expecting to see low attendance from the student body, faculty, and backers of the Pi rates. I was proven wrong with an estimated attendance of 3600 persons. Athletes in Action are affiliat- ed with Campus Crusade for Christ, who have a local branch here on- campus. The team competes with major teams at colleges all across the country. Besides being an athletic team, Athletes in Action share a com- mon bond in knowing Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. During halftime at all the athletic events, Athletes in Action share with the audience what Jesus Christ means in their lives and how Jesus Christ can become the center of a person's life to those who are interested in the audience. Last Thursday night 34 per- sons in the viewing audience accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. God is working miracles here at East Carolina.

Classes began on July 26 with welcoming speeches from the Ambassador of the U.S. to Costa Rica, the Padre, and the pres- ident of the Universidad Naaonal The classes during the week- days were very relaxed and interaction between students and teachers was very informal. The classes were supplement- ed by weekend excursions, part of the field study course. On weekends the students separated into several different groups and visited various places in Costa Rica, such as Antiqua and Tical. Some groups journeyed outside of Costa Rica, and visitea Guatemala and El Salvador, nations northwest of Costa Rica. Every other weekend the group partiapated in a major field trip. The students roughed it" during most of the weekend excursions in order to save money. � We really got the feel of the country, and we could go back there now and live with little trouble. We became part of the country by experiencing nature aid Troy Moore. One of the most memorable trips that the students made was to Limon ana Cahu The students arrived in Limon on Oct. 12, the day that the citizens there held carnivals cele- brating "The Day of the Race Better known to us as " Col umbus Day Afterwards, the students visit- ed Cahuita, a national park having a small town of shanty houses, and located next to the Caribbean Sea. Cahuita is noted, for its beautiful palm trees and beaches. "The people there were very friendly, and they helped us fish fa, and later roast lobsters over fires on the beach. Most of the people there oould speak English said Fisher. Another weekend trip was taken to Santa Rosa, also a national park. While the1 the students participated in a 20- mile-hike from a ranger station to Nancite beach, a turtle nesting area. An interesting incident occur- red while hiking to the beach-the students became lost and were faced to bivouac in the swamps. During the night, the students listened to the wierd growls of the Howler Monkeys and suffered from mosquito bites. They eventually reached the beach, but too late to see the arnbada, a fleet of turtles that crawl from the sea to lay eggs and return to the sea again. The arnbada, consisting of thousands of turtles, was missed, ice (ate Make your YEARBOOK PORTRAIT appointment now at but the students were still able to see a few straggling turtles on the mile-long beach. While in Cahuita and Santa Rosa, four students took advan- tage of the beaches and went surfing. Others went snakeling, often bringing back fish, lobsters, and oolaful oaal. Several girls made jewelry from the shells they gathered. Another place visited was the beach of Manuel Antonio, outside Quepos. There, the students again enjoyed the beautiful beach and saw many cotaful parakeets, un-caged, in their natural envir- oment.

How do you select a physician? How many miles do you live from a hospital? These are some of he quest- ions being asked residents in Pitt, Chowan and Hyde counties as part of an eastern North Carolina health care attitude survey. Dr. Marty Zusman, an East Carolina University sociology pro- fessor and director of the project, saysa40-minute interview will be conducted in the homes of 800 to 1,000 residents who will be asked to discuss their perceptions of health care in the area. Walter Shepard, assistant to the dean of the ECU School of Medicine, and Chris Mansfield, associate director of the Eastern Carolina Health Systems Agency (HSA), are collaborating with Zusman on the project. The study will provide the medical school and HSA with information useful in planning adequate health care in the eastern part of the state. Dr. Zusman developed the survey when he found that information on eastern Carolina health care attitudes have never been compiled, although demo- graphic data - the number of doctors and hospitals, the SU trips deadline extended By DOUG WHITE News Editor, The registration deadline fa the Florida and Bahamas trips, scheduled during spring break, has been extendea to Jan. 31, according to Bill Martin, Student Union Travel Committee chair- person. "We felt the extension would allow more time for people to get settled in this semester before deciding to join one of the trips Martin said. The Florida trip lasts eight days, from March 3-11, at a cost of $105. This price covers the cost of transportation and lodging while in Florida. A $25 deposit is needed by Jan. 31 in order to go on this trip. "We will be travelling by buses, leaving Mendenhall March 3 and returning March 11. "The buses will stop in St. Augustine the next morning and then oontinue on to Daytona Beach, where participants will stay at the Holiday Inn Boardwalk fa three days After leaving Daytona, the trip will proceed to Orlando and Disney Wald. The buses will News meeting 4 p.m. Mon, make shuttle runs between the motel and Disney Wald while in Orlando, and also to Sea Wald and Tampa's Busch Gardens. The trip will leave Orlando March 11 and return to Green- ville. The Bahamas cruise lasts six days, leaving Mendenhall in two buses March 5 and returning March 10. Four nights and three days will be spent at sea aboard the T.S. Leonardo da Vinci. Pats of call are Freepat and Nassau. All mealsaboard ship are included in the price of $325.

"Hyde, Pitt and Chowan counties were selected because they represent the wast, average and best health care indices in the 29 county region, accading to figures from the Department of Health, Education an Welfare Zusman says. Respondents will be asked if they have a family docta, where they receive their medical care, and how they make the choice of physician a treatment center. Other questions are designed to determine how comfatable res- idents feel with their physician and other health $are profes- sionals he says. Respondents will also be questioned about their use of medications and their family medical histay. Infamatiai gained fron the study, which should be complete in May, 1978, will help medical school and HSA planning officials determine the geographical loca- tions of needed health care services and the characteristics of individuals with the greatest health care needs. The survey will also show the extent to which residents are aware of existing medical services and whether they are satisfied with available facilities. Accading to Shepad, a sim- ilar survey is being considered fa 1980 to determine if health needs unoovered in the study have been met.

Concert to include Bartok, Poulenc DR. EVERETT PtTTMAN ByRENEEDIXON Staff Writa Dr. Evaett Pittman and Dr. Charles Stevens, Dean and Assis- tant Dean of the ECU School of Music, will perfam a duo piano recital on Wednesday, January 25th at 815 p.m. in A.J. Fletcher Recital Hall. The program consists of the Sonata fa Two Pianos and Percussion by Befa Bartok and the Conoerto in d mina by Frands Poulenc. The concert is free and open to the public. The pianists will be assisted on the Bartok opus by, percus- sionists Patrick Flaherty and Jack Stamp. Mr. Stamp and Mr. Flaherty are graduate students in the ECU School of Music and study with faculty percussionist, Mr. Harold Jones. The Bartok Sonata is consi- dered a landmark in writing fa the piano as a percussive instru- ment, and in the use of new percussion techniques and colas. In addition to piano, percussion instruments utilized fa the per- famance are the following: three chromatic timpani, xylophone, snare drum, side drum, suspen- ded cymbals, bass drum, tri- angle, and tam-tam. Bartok employs the unique qualities of the percussion instru- ments in a dialogue with the piano, displaying ooitempaary techniques in resonance and pitch production. In oontrast, the Poulenc Con- oerto ended a period of revival in dassical-romantic styles. The conoerto is an example of the melodic and harmonic genius of Poulenc, typically aeative and spontaneous. DR. CHARLES STEVENS The Poulenc selection was first perfamed in 1932 and the Bartok in-1938. Each composer took part in the premier perfa- rnanceof his oomposition. The show with its ova 100 rare phaographs documenting the lives of people settling the frontia in the late 19th centuries was scheduled by "lllumina the Student Union Art Exhibition Committee. The exhibit was espedally developed fa the recent Bicen- tennial by the Smithsonian In- stitute Traveling Exhibitioi Savice. Its popularity has grown steadily ever sinoe. The exhibition was researched by Eugene Ostroff, curata of phaography at the National Museum of Histay and Tech- nology. Ostroff stresses that photo- graphy of that day was not fa the occasional hobbyist. Taking and processing photographs was a difficult and expensive proposi- tion. Dedication in addition to professional knowledge and skill required of the photographa in the late 19th oentury and few amateurs possesed all three in suffident quantities to produce quality work.

Sponsored by Mendenhall Student Center and the School of Music Student Forum, each of the six finalists performed a 15 minute selection either solo or accompanied by piano. A grand prize of $200 was awarded to the overall winner, and three prizes of $50 were awarded to the best in the catagories of Instrumental, Vocal, and Piano. Mike Price performed a jazzy tune on his alto saxophone to open the competition. Price was accompanied by George Stone playing piano. It seems that saxophone perfamances are al- ways full of rapid fire runs and weak on transition. This tends to make some members of the audience think about a long lost second cousin or yesterday's classes. Of course this may be exactly what the composer in- tends with his work, and if that is so this piece was a big hit. It was difficult to hear the subtitles of the sax that probably should have been brought out more in a competition of this sort. Saxo- phones are very versatile instru- ments which can produce fab- ulous jazz runs and overtones that can really capture an audience. Although Price failed to fully explore his instrument he did manage to show that he is strong on talent and was deserving, if not of his prize fa instrumental performance, then graduation. Piano music can hold the interest of even the most un- initiated classical music listener if well perfamed. And although Alisa Wetherington's perfam- ance seemed to start with a warm-up exercise to loosen her fingers it was lively enough so that you could stop squirming in your chair to listen. If a concert pianist it would be hard to fagive slippery fingers during a perfam- ance, but in Wetherington it can be overlooked because of the superb taste she displayed in combining movements by Bach �fie &oz&6i Corner of 5th & Cotanche Specializing in unique gift items. and Choplin. Although she won no prizes, she succeeded in building ner i5 minute portion of the competition into an emotion packed mini-concert and high- light of the afternoon. To some people voice music as it was displayed in this competi- tion is something to be avoided, like bad breath. But someone had to win the $50 fa a vocal perfamance, so Belinda Bryant did her best. To be fair all of us can admit she had excelInt vocal control and sang fluent Italian. Some singers seem to specialize in paining the ear, but even the most un-initiated listener could have sat through Bryants per- famance, but not enjoyed it much. Intermission and Victaia Lannotta brought us more Bach and some Copeland perfamed on flute accompanied by Patricia Mann on the grand piano. Like piano, flute has a good chance of sounding alright and holding the interest of the audience if it is played well. Lannotta did a fine job hitting only a few shrill a unsure notes and ended her perfamance with a bit of frivolity that oould only be oomplimented if you had had the patience to stay and hear it. To see Sheila Marshburn hunched over a piano, hands just a lur, absabed in her absabing Liszt piece, one oould make an accurate guess from the first notes that she would win a prize. By the end of the her 15 minutes she had built her piece to a feverish pitch, and even the slumbering members of the aud- ience awoke to see her. There were few thoughts of summer vacations a class assignments during her perfamance. She MARIO QAETANO WINNER of ttte Second Annual ECU Young Artists Competition might have even been glad to have seen her perfamance. Last, and also grand prize winner, was Mario Gaetano and his perfamance with two sticks in each hand hitting a marimba. It wasn't at all like a rock concert marimba when a percussionist does everything but tap dance on his instrument. Gaetano's per- famance was strong, showed his talent well, but like Price he failed to really show off his instrument and its capabilities. During his perfamance the image of that lost second cousin creeps into your mind. A marimba is such a marvelous instrument, and Gaetano has such an ability fa perfaming with it, it is a shame he couldn't have picked a better piece. So who were the people who judged the betters from the lessers? Professas of oourse. From UNC Greensboro, a piano professa, Dr. Geage Kiapes. From Chapel Hill, Professa Marajean Marvin who teaches voioe. And aoonducta from UNC Chapel Hill, David Serrins. It was good to see Student Center and a Student Faum waking together and to see deserving students receive a reward fa their effats. Let's hope there is a Third Annual Artists Competition next year, and maybe more of us will enjoy that one. company In Mew "The Company is supert n. � "They are the futuret. l Th.

Against the backdrop of the current disco craze, "Saturday Night Fever" emerges as a serious examination of the dreams and desparations of the disco set. Travolta delivers a dynamic, characterization of Tony Manero, leader of a Brooklyn gang, the Faces, who works in a paint store in order to afford his weekly binge on the dance floor. As he performs his ritualistic preparation fa a night in the disco, (performing a Bruoe Lee workout beneath the watchful visage of Al Pacino, visions of Farrah Fawcett-Majors'5 pearlies flashing in his head) Travolta's Tony is transformed into a modern day Everyman, the proto- typical male youth of the 70' s. The Faces, as their name implies, are the masters of flash and strut; they represent a society in which appearance constitutes reality, facade supersedes sub- stance, and emotional interper- sonal relations are considered embarrassingly vulgar. Within this peer group a modern youth learns the facts of life: how to dress, arrange one's hair, and pass the stash properly located behind THE ATTIC 752-7303 wed Backgammon Town.

While his cronies oollapse into despair and cynicism, Tony came to the realization of Weltan- schauung which surpasses the chauvinistically bigoted territor- ialism of the borough, which causes Manhattanites to be regarded as foreigners. Amidst the oonfusion of his life, the Brooklyn Bridge emerges as an ever-present symbol of the hope of escape; for Tony, the bridge is life's only constant. It is upon the bridge that the Faces try themselves"with drunk- en frenzies of high-strung acroba- tics; while reciting the bridge's vital statistics, (Tony'scatechism) he wins the girl he loves; and it is upon this bridge that the punk waif Bobby performs his climatic and suicidal dance with death in order to escape from an innoble existence. The musical selections are a great weakness of the movie, as Robert Stigwood not only influ- enced the selection of artists to be represented, (many of the acts presented are properties of the JOHN TRAVOLTA DELIVERS "a dynamic characterization" in his latest film. Robert Stigwood Organization) he also manages to have the dia- logue sprinkled with names from his retinue of stars whose music cannot be worked into the sound- track. The musical selections which are represented are catered to fit the tastes of the white disco audienoe, as typified by the bland soundtrack work by the Bee Gees. (One notable exoeption is the Latino dance scene during the dance contest, which contains some of the finest music and dancing to have been produced within the disco idiom.) Finally, it is Travolta's capti- vating dancing which steals the show. The movie is well worth seeing fa Travolta's performance alone; the raw dramatic power of his dancing with Karen Lynn Gorney is energizing, to say the least. Memorable performances are contributed by Berry Miller as Bobby and Donna Pesoow, who in her pursuit of Tony, delivers a performance which nearly over- shadows that of the heroine. The World's Greatest Lover 'goes limp and is an unsatisfying disappointment By DAVID W. TREVINO Trends Editor Gene Wilder can be a very funny man.

His latest movie, The World's Greatest Lover, opens with a slapstick sequence in a bakery in which Wilder is trapped on a conveyor belt, frosted like a cake, oovered with glitter and then boxed and tied with a ribbon. Unfortunately, The World's Greatest Lover then goes limp and the rest of the film is an unsatisfying disappoint- ment. After his repeated failure as a baker in Milwaukee, Rudy Hickman (Gene Wilder) and his wife Annie (Carol Kane) go to Hollywood in 1926 to Rainbow Studios to enter the talent search for "the world's greatest lover" to rival the popular Rudolph Valentino. Rudy eventually wins the oontest and recaptures the affections of Annie, who had fallen for Valentino's charms and left Rudy in the middle of the night with a flooded hotel suite. Wilder and Dom Deluise, who portrays the egomaniacal movie mogul Adolph Zitz, dominite the film with a frenzied hyperadivity which fails as a substitute for acting. Not even a truly outstand- ing performance by the gifted Carol Kane can raise the film above the level of absurdity Wilder and Deluise foroe it to with their awkward attempts at visual comedy. � �����H The Late Gnat Planet Earth 24 January 1978 FOUNTAINHEAP Page 11 The mentality of the Inquisition lives on' By DAVID WHITSON Staff Writer Yes, readers, the mentality of the Inquisition lives on, embodied in Hal Lindsey. AsLindsey quotes Demosthenes in his book, The Late Great Planet Earth: "We believe whatever we want to believe What Lindsey wants to believe isthat atheism, astrology, and witchcraft are responsible fa the collective ills of society, ranging from air and water pollution to killer bees. The film's first twenty minutes are credible, as it begins, innocuously enough, with an examination of the predictions of the Hebrew prophets which have already come to pass. Jeremiah's prophecy of the destruction of Judah by Nebu- chadnezzar of Babylon, as well as Isaiah's prediction that King Cyrus would allow the temple of Jerusalem to be rebuilt, are cited in order to establish the validity of the Hebraic tradition of pro- phetic writings. All well and good, but at this point the film loses all credibility. The action now shifts to the island of Patmos, where St. John the Divine is peacfully eking out his final days of exile. Beneath an artificial moon, the avatar of Ronnie Van Zant, who is now a sweaty angel, arrives to enlighten the aged apostle. The ensuing action is a study of chaos. The Whore of Babylon spews enough blood to make Gene Simmons of Kiss envious, while the wizened John is tormented by the gyrations of odd men in Playtex gloves and pantyhose. A melange of recycled footage follows, in which the Romans, Seljuk Turks, and people who' ve joined Today's Army' take on a giant iguana. One would think (or wish) that Lindsey would stop there.

This idea of a splitting of the NCAA's Division I was sought by the 85 a so "Super football powers What these schools wanted was control over their own destinies in the spat of football and that is partly what they got. As the system was befae last week, all of the divisions of the NCAA I, II and III voted as a group. In many cases the 85 "superpowers" were outvoted by the smaller NCAA schools. It was a voting superiaity of this type that led to a limit of 8 assistant coaches and set limits fa the number of scholarship players a school could have at a time a sign in aie year. These rules amoig others were something that the superpowers did not want a need. The rules were intended to save money and bring about mae balance from top to bottom in the NCAA's Division I. In other wads Alabama might have enough money to sign 50 prospects but since they are limited to 30 scholarships other schools get a chance of signing some high quality players that namally they would not get. So Furman and Ball State can sign players capable of playing fa a mae praninent football power because of these limits on reauits. What the powers pushed fa and got was a splitting of the NCAA's Division I into two separate groupings, Division IA and IA-A. The idea was that in ader to be in the top division, IA, you must meet certain requirements. This way only true "powerschools" would be in the division. They would become a separate voting group and be able to decide their own future. In ader to be in Division IA a school must have several things. The first is fa a school to field eight varsity spats including football. The second aiteria is fa these schools to schedule at least 60 percent of their games with other IA members. The third rule is that either a school must average 17,000 paid attendance per home football game over a four-year period a they must have a 30,000 seat (permanent seats) stadium, and have averaged 17,000 in aie of the last four years a they must field twelve varsity spats recognized by the NCAA. The "twelve spat rule" made the 85 member super conference become a 135 member division which was almost as large as the old Division I. The "twelve spat rule" spaisaed by Colgate, William and Mary and the Ivy League with the exception of Columbia is expected to last only a year a so. After that it is believed that unless a school meets the other requirements then it will become a Division IA school What this adds up to is the so called "super conference" will not be as exclusive as the maja powerswanted it tobethisyear. Eventually it will become mae exclusive as stricter rules are set fa membership and smaller schools fall to the wayside. Wak is underway in the expansion of East Carolina University's Ficklen Stadium. Heavy construction aews began ground wak last month. Parke Construction Company of Charlotte was granted the plumbing contract and Watson Electrical Company of Wilson was granted the electrical bid. No bids were received fa the mechanical area of the expansion, but accoding to the University officials that type of wok can probably be done with local help from the University. The seating capacity will be doubled with 35,000 total seats to be available upon completiwi of the project. Also, a three-level press area, a chancella' s box, an elevata to service the press and ohancella' s box areas, and additional rest rooms to handle up to 39,000 people will be added to the stadium. Initially, only the first press box level will be complete, with the second level being left an open hall to be oompleted at a later date. The third level camera deck will also be completed at this time. The oontracts call fa completion of the expansion by August 31, 1978. Should the stadium not be completed in time fa the first hone game of next season, slated fa Sept. 23, the oontractas will be required to pay the University $100,000. " Everyone wasccnoerned when the first bids were returned said University Vice-Chanoalla fa Business Affairs, Clifton G. Moae. "After those bids, it appeared we might not be able to start on the project this year. But after negotiations with the oontractas, we were able to change some things and cut the costs back. think everyone is very pleased that we have been able to get Total cost of the expansion project is $2.6 million.

The Lady Pi rates, winner over UNC-Greensbao Saturday, travel to Appalachian State fa a 6 p.m. game Saturday, and back hone to play High Point College on Tuesday at 7 p.m. "I think the team has now developed mae confidence in itself as a whole, as well as, individuals gaining confidence themselves said Coach Catehrine Bolton.

I feel our rebounding is solid and that is Sports DEBBIE FREEMAN The games with UNC-Green- sbao and Appalachian State will be Division I NCAIAW games. At present, East Carolina stands 3-1 in the division, with wins earlier this year ova Duke and Appalachian and a loss to N.C. State. Ovaall, the Lady Pirates have oompiled a 7-3 mark. After a 4-1 recad pria to the holidays, the Lady Pirates have managed only a 2-2 mark in the new year. Two losses a few weeks ago in a round robin affair at James Madison University, to host Madison and Penn State, were obviously the low point of the season. The team was flat in both games. A solid win over West Chester State and the win over Eton sonething we really depend upoi. We are not lacking in desire, concentration or inten- sity. Now that the layoff is behind us, I believe we will continue to wok toward our total potential This weekend will be a key to the Division I season fa East Carolina. Seedings fa the state championship tournament, to be held at East Carolina March 2-4, are based on regular season standings. "This weekend is the most important action we've faced since our two early divisional games noted Boiton "To play Appalachian on their home oourt is always a challenge. They never gave up at our place when they should have. Playing up thae will be one of the junia faward Rose Thompson. She is soaing , at a 23 points per game clip and averaging nine rebounds per game. Those figures place Thompson.near the top in both categaies in Division I play. "Rosie is just super said Bolton.

"I couldn't ask fa mae fran Marsha Bolton said. "She has excelled what I hoped fa. Marsha has played defense inside since the break that has been an intimidation facto and I expect her offense to oome around anytime Out front, three guards have given the Pirates various possibil- ities fa backoourt play. Gale Kerbaugh, April Ross and Lydia Roundtree offer an interesting attack. "I can use these three guards in a variety of ways to concentrate on different things noted Bolton. "As a result, we can just do mae this year A big name of the past, Debbie Freeman, has not been heard from that much this year. Defensively, she's playing fine. But offensively, it's not the old' Debbie Freeman. "I don't really know how to explain Debbie said Bolton. "She played like her Od self vs. West Chester State, but other- wise, her offense of the past is no there. I think it's a matter of concentration. Defensively, her play has been fine. Without Debbie of old, we aren't the complete team we can be. I'm looking faward to her ooming around While the Lady Pirates have done well, two areas stand out as trouble spots. "Turnovers, obviously Bolton injected. "Thae just no excuse fa our turnovas. Now, many are no bad plays a passes. Many have oome from violations. But we must improve this area "And, we've got to get betto balance in our soaing.

His comments on these items were: 1978 football schedule: "I expect to release the schedule later this week. We've held off to ind out about the Division I Status of various schools. We are now waiting to see how our anticipated opponents fa next year plan to go, Division I-A a Division l-AA. If any are not planning on Division l-A status, we will drop them. We will have -five home games and six road james, with a possible home opener on Sept. 2. N.C. State and North Carolina will be played back-lo-back as our second and third games, both on the road. There is a chance of scheduling N.C. State later in our season in the future 1979 & 1980 schedules in football: "Our schedule will be much more attractive in 1979, name-wise. We have our sche- dule for 1979 completed, but it's just a matter of when we want to release it. In 1980, yes, we have Florida State on the schedule. Division l-A and l-AA effects: "For a couple of years things will remain about as is. Each school has 60 days to indicate which division it plans to be in and three years to comply. I feel this will divide a lot of "conferences, which is one of the reasons we got out of the Southern Conference last year. We thought this was ooming. TV will play a great deal in the formation of the new divisions. In twp to three years, I can see 85-90 schools with a strong Division l-A football program Formation of a new confer- ence with ECU as member: "I think the formation of a new conference is the only thing I foresee to satisfy our needs in the future. If we are not in a conference in two to three years, then we had better look at our position and situation again On Pat Dye and UNC job: Coach Dye and I had some very serious talks about many aspects of our program. I said a year ago that I wanted to have the highest paid football coach in the state. I'm still working for that. I noticed that Bobby Bowden got a $4,000 raise at Florida State. I hope we can do better than that. It's a credit to the ECU program and the school that Pat's name always comes up when jobs are open. If he's not being sought, then he wouldn't be doing the job we want Freshman red shirtule: "I'm for anything that will'help our program and we think this will. But I also believe that it will be reversed next year by the NCAA. I don't believe that everyone fully understood what they voted for and what can happen with this rule Recruiting agreements with ACC and Southeastern Confer- ences: "We do not have any written agreements with either league. There are some verbal agreements with individual schools. We have asked for it with the ACC, but they have not responded as yet, except for a couple of 3chcols Stadium expansion report: "The stadium expansion project appears to be on schedule. If it's not, you already know there's a $100,000 penalty clause. As for seating, the north side will continue to be used for students. There was some discussion about moving them to one-half the stadium on one side or to the corners. But the students pay an athletic fee, have helped with our new lights and are helping with the stadium expansion. So they will not be moved from the center of the north side. The new corners will be used fa general admission seating. The south side will remain fa the Pirate Club members with expansiai of that seating as necessary.

Soloman Revils, otherwise re- cognized as "Butch" to his teammates, has produced results nothing less than spectacular for the Pirates this season and appears destined to follow the footsteps of his head ooach Bill Hill. Revils, another Norview High School product from Norfolk, Va has already won tournament championships this season in the prestigious Wilkes Open and the Monarch Open, took second place in the Carolina Invitational and ownsan impressive 12-4-1 overall record. His credentials have been very impressive so far this season especially for someone who simply wanted a chance to wrestle during his first year at East Carolina. "When I came down here all I wanted to do was to get a chance to wrestle a lot explained the 167 pounder I was kinda surprised that I got to such a good start, but I hate to lose and I don't see any need to go out there and give a poor effort. I gcout there to wrestle and win Revils very first oollegiate tournament was the Monarch Open in Norfolk, where all his family, friends and his old head ooach were on the .sidelines �. e� �� - � V �rr-J: 7Z2-JT& ARBAGE: one cause hat doesn't need our contribution.

But, Butch calmly responded to the pressure as he won four matches, all over top seeded opponents, to win the title and was named the Outstanding Wrestler in the event. He knocked off fourth seeded Ben Hill of Tennessee in the second round with a 5-4 overtime decision, and advanoed to the semifinals with another 5-4 dec- ision over fifth seeded Norman Walker of North Carolina. After winning by default over top seeded Rick Rodriguez of N.C. State, he took the title with a dramatic 1-0 overtime decision against North Carolina's Carl Hoffman. "I was really up fa that tournament said Revils. "Everybody was right there pulling for me, my ooach, my parents and all my friends. I guess I was lucky in some ways, but I was sure glad to do so well in my first tournament After the Monarch Open, Revils place second in the Carolina Invitational, losing to teammate Jay Dever in the championship round. Revils drop- ped three straight matches in a disastrous quad meet against nationally ranked Oregon State, Lehigh. and East Stroudsburg State in Bethlehem, Pa. However, he came back to win the 177 poundchampionshipin the Wilkes Open and was voted the Out- standing Freshman in the tour- nament. But success has been nothing newto Butch. During histwo year career at Norview High under Kenneth Whitley, he posted a 65-5-2 record and went 27-0 his senior season winning the dis- trict, regional, and state champ- ionships. Pirate head coach Bill Hill and heavyweight D.T. Joyner also prepped under Whitle at Norview. Revils attributes most of his success thus far this season to wrestling in a weight class lower than he wrestled in high school. "I wrestled at 185 during high school and I was always up against guys that were a lot bigger than I was said Revils. "Now since I've been wrestling down at 177 and 167 it seems like the guys are smaller and it sure gives me a lot more confidence Despite his somewhat slow start in dual matches this season, Revils recently won a big match over his old high school teammate Mike Benzel 4-3 against North Carolina although the Pirates lost 25-15. "It was great to beat him because it was such a close match said Revils, "but I was disappointed we lost the match to them. It's a pretty tense rivalry between us and North Carolina. I just can't wait fa them to wrestle us down here because we'll really be psyched. It should be a real dogfight And just like most oollegiate wrestlers Revils goal is to qualify fa the NCAA Champiaishipsand have a. chance to reap All- America honas. �����iBHH Pirates reopen in �� HERMAN MdNTYRE photo by Kip Sioan Special to FOUNTAINHEAD Sports The East Carolina track team reopened its indoor season with a select team of relay men and a few of the talented sprinters at theprestigasC.Y.O. Invitational at College Park, MD. on Friday the 13th. The traditional bad- luck which goes along with Friday 13 along with the magni- tude of the meet proved to be to much for the young competitors. The C.Y.O. meet features many Olympians along with the best track and field men in the world. A good example of the level of performance came in the feature mile run. Dick Berkley, an American Olympian beat Filbert Bayi of Africa, the defending world record holder in the 1500 meter run, to set a new world indoor world record for the mile. Although the ECU squad gave it the old Pirate try they just could not come up with a winning effort. On his way to a good 60-yard high hurdle race and 24 January 1978 FOUNTAINHEAD Pag iS r season maybe a place in the finals Marvin Rankins was tripped by another competitor. Along this line the Pirate mile relay was knocked out of first place in the feature mile relay when the DC. Striders with twcOympianscut in on the ECU squad. All in all it was a good learning experience as more and more this will be the caliber of competitors the track- men will be facing. Not wasting anytime, the ECU trackmen joined the remainder of the team in Richmond fa the Cheserfield Invitational. Here, the strong East Carolina squad was able to come right back and show its strength and speed. For many of the young Pirates this was their first time competing on the small 180 yd. board track. Sophomore Otis Melvin, who just missed All-Amaican honors last year during outdoor season, reeled off three 6.1's in the 60-yard dash to take 2nd place in the University diviaon. Larry Austin tied the meet record of 6.0 in the trials of the feature 60, setting him up for a good shot at Olympian Steve Riddic in the final. The all important start caught the senior flash from Jacksonville on the jump, and he was out. Marvin Rankins then came back from his fall the night before and blasted a 7.2 fa the 60 yd. high hurdles. Thejunia fran Berti finished 3rd in the finals while his time qualified him fa the natiaials. Coach Carson summed up the weekends effats saying, Everyate ran real good. Everyone gave 100 per cent. Meanwhile, back in N.C several of the ECU trackmen were competing in the N.C. A.A.U. Marathoi Champioiships. The 26 mile, 385 yard course ran from Bethel to Oak City and back. Ed Herefad of the N.C.T.C. won the event in 2 hours 34 minutes. Jim Dill, a junia at ECU finished 2nd and dose behind the winner with a time of 235.29 in his first try at the distance. John White, com- peting in his 4th 26-miler in 7 weeks finished a strong 4th with Robbie Williams a creditable 20th place out of 180 people Mackless Pirates lose to UNC-A By STEVE BYERS Assistant Spats Edita The Pirates with Oliver Mack are progressing, but the Bucs without him are at best, strug- gling. The Mack-less Pirates were slapped by the undersized, undertaJented, and undermuscled UNC-Asheville Bulldogs 101-92 Saturday night in Minges. The Pirates irratic perfa- mance and loss was particularly dissapointing when considering the Bucs held a 15 point lead with 11:16 gone in the first half. The outcome overshadowed an outstanding perfamance by Herb Krusen who scaed a season high 31 pointsgoing12of 22 from the floa and hitting 7 of 7 from the free throw line. Greg Canel- ius and Jim Ramsey add 18 points each as Canelius grabbed 15 rebounds. Krusen has been Mr. Coisis- tancy fa the Pirates soaring consistantly ova 15 points a game. The Pirates started the game with a 9-0 lead and built it to a 15-7 lead befae the bewilder- ment of the Bulldogs changed sides of the oourt. The Bucs missed Mack on the scaing and the leadership end of �the stick. Shot selection and poor ball handling marked the come- back of the Bulldogs after the Pirates went .up again by seven in the second half. Mack did not play because of disciplinary purposes which were of a pasonaLnature. Coach Larry Gillman explained "no one is too big fa the rules" he continued "A winning team must have discipline and a winning atti- tude As of Decemba 10, Oliver Mack was fourth in the nation in scaing with a 28.5 per game aveage.

Hopefully the scaing influence will spread as Mack returns to the line-up fa this weeks games.
