SGA night transit gets high response The SGA night transit system, which began last fall receives a high response from students, aocording to Gene Summerlin, SGA transit mana- ger. The schedule is from 6 to 10 p.m. from Monday thru Thursday nights. "As many people respond to the night schdules as they do to the day buses said Summerlin. Mendenhall is the starting point and the bus departs from there on the hour, according to the bus schedule. This route is primarily for campus, but it goes to Pitt Plaza and Greenville Square Shopping Center, aocording to Summerlin. Other bus stops are Joyner Library, Allied Health, Minges, and College Hill Dr. Dean Rusk to speak at Model UN gathering here on Feb. 17 Former U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk will speak at an Atlantic Coast Model United Nations Security Council gather- ing on campus Feb. 17. Rusk, secretary of state from 1961 to 1969, was assistant secretary of state for United Nations Affairs earlier in his career. He is presently a professor of international law at the University of Georgia. His ECU address, scheduled fa 4 p.m. in Mendenhall Student Center, is among the first sched- uled events oonnected with the Model United Nations meeting, which will involve about 150 delegates from 30 eastern U.S. camDuses. The three-day meeting invol- ves student delegations' simula- tion of actual United Nation delegations. This year's Security Council meetings at ECU are expected to include four model Secuirty Councils, accading to political science student Wiley Betts, one of the ECU aganizers. Proceedings and general structure of the Model United Nations Security Council follow those of the United Nations, with a Seaetary General and delega- tions representing the nations currently comprising the United Nations. Purpose of the Model United till III Nations meeting is to enable students to increase their know- ledge of wald affairs by drafting resolutions and discussing current issues which relate to interactional peace and security. Last year three ECU students served as Secretaries General of the three model UN Security Councils at a similar gathering here which was one of the largest 1977 regional Model UN events. Participating delagations study social, economic and political conditions in the nations they represent, and are thus able to fam opinions and make decisions on wald concerns from the perspective of different cultures. STUDENTS RELAX BETWEEN classes to enjoy a sunny winter day ECU program helps deaf students adjust to ByJULIEEVERETTE Assistant News Edita The deaf program at ECU, after over a year in existence, is proving successful despite some academic adjustment problems of the deaf students, accading to Mike Ernest, ooadinata of the deaf program. The deaf program at ECU began in April, 1976. Accading to Ernest, the parents of deaf children felt a four year deaf program was needed in a Nath Carolina university. ECU, along with three other univasities, sent in a proposal to the Board of Directas which was approved. "There are five deaf students and three hard of hearing stud- ents at ECU and they all live in dams Ernest said. "Most wanted hearing room- mates who knew sign language. They were given a choice of hearing roommates he said. Aooading to Ernest, the deaf students lead a well balanced social life. "They like ECU, ,he said. "They associate with one another quite a lot, but they also go out with hearing students "They can participate in all the campus activities. They join saaities, and fraternities, go to ooncerts, plays, movies, and any campus meetings Aocadinq to Ernest, three deaf students have a teletypewrit- er in their rooms. This enables them to talk on the telephone by use of a "ooupler which sends messages as they type on the machine. Ernest also said that they wake up in the manings by a flashing alarm clock. Aooading to Ernest, one club on campus, the Caption Films Club, was aganized specifically fa the deaf students. "Films with sound are shown but captions are used Ernest said. Ernest also noted that deaf persons in the Greenville area are invited to attend. There are some academic adjustment problems, however. Accading to Ernest, the freshman students have not rec- eived enough oollege preparation and the wakload at ECU is very demanding. "They were weak in vocabul- ary, math skills, and written English skills Ernest said. "A Irt of the students write with sign language in mind and it doesn't follow the English pat- tern. "It's almost as if the deaf students are faeign students. Their natural langauge isn't English, it's American Sign Lang- uage, (Amislan) Accading to Ernest, Amislan is used by American deaf adults and involves many gestures and idioms. Ernest said some of the problems are being solved by helping the students develop writing skills and teaching the faculty sign language. Aooading to Ernest, a special English course has been aeated fa the deaf students. "They are showing lots of improvement and are waking very hard he said. He also said that the students can maja in any subject, but they lean toward liberal arts, psycho- logy, and education.

Ernest said some instructors By JEANNIE WILLIAMS Assistant News Editor The SGA Legislature appro- ved Kieran Shanahan as Attorney General last night, filling the position that has been vacant for ten months. Shanahan was the acting attorney general since Septem- ber, 1977. Shanahan was the only person recommended by the Blue Ribbon Committee. The legislature also approved the General Election Rules for the upcoming spring election, elimi- nating the precinct at Jenkins Art Building. The precinct at Jenkins was eliminated because it was felt that if this building were designated as a precinct, then all other classroom buildings should be designated as precincts. Minor charges were made in this year's general election rules as compared to last year's. Expenditures of candidates for office was increased due to increased printing costs. Expenditures of executive office candidates should not ex- ceed $200 for hisher election or run-off. Executive office candi- dates last year were allotted only $125. Class officer candidates should not exoeed $100 fa hisher election; last year, class officer candidates were allotted $50. Candidates for legislative positions and other elected offi- cers were allotted $75, compared to last year s allotted $50. Provisions for a recount were made in the event of a close election. If a Spring Election office is within two percent (.02) of the total vote cast, a recount shall be automatic fa that office.

If a candidate charges that a campaign violation has oocurred, the appeal will go directly to the Review Board instead of to the Attaney General, as it has in the past.

TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INNOVATORS IN PERSONAL ELECTRONICS Texas Instruments � 1978 Texas Instruments Incorporated iMfflB POR AT F n Editorials Page 4 FOUNTAINHEAD 14 February 1978 No overpass, but maybe Students have clamored in the past for an overpass at the intersection of Tenth Street and College Hill Drive in order to avoid pedestrian- vehicle accidents. An overpass, if used, would help to alleviate problems at this intersection. However, an overpass would cost approximately $200,000, according to Cliff Moore, vice-chancellor for business affairs. This overpass would be a state project and there is absolutely no guarantee that the students would use it. Accidents have occured at this intersection in the past and will continue to occur until a plan is implemented which would provide safety to the students when they make the daily journey to from the Hill dorms or from day student parking lots to campus. Herb Carlton, an associate professor of political science, has an alternate plan to the proposed overpass. Instead of an overpass, Carlton believes that eliminating ail left turn signals, closing the entrance now open in front of the music building and opening another one and extending the median up to Maple Street would help decrease the number of accidents at this intersection. Carlton also proposed having a fence installed along Tenth Street to stop students from jaywalking. Carlton's idea is definitely one that the administration should consider. While most people bemoan the fact that the intersection is a hazard but do nothing to alleviate the problem, this professor has created an idea that would surely be well worth trying. Carlton said in an article in the Jan. 24 edition of FOUNTAINHEAD that he has seen five accidents at the intersection. All of them except one involved a bicycle. Students should not be subjected to crossing a dangerous intersection. They should have an alternate. This intersection is even more of a problem to the handicapped students on campus. Considering the fact that probably few, if any, students would use the overpass, then $200,000 of state money would be down the drain. Moore should now study the plan and estimate how much money would be needed for this project. The University should submit a bill to the N.C. Legislature and all students who are concerned with having a safer intersection should lobby for this desperately needed project.

Forum 'SGA : 9 $ don't represent me To FOUNTAINHEAO: Recently our campus paper, FOUNTAINHEAD, has been under heavy attack by a handful of petty legislators who claim to represent us, the students. These die-hard SGA addicts certainly do not represent me and I consider myself an average student. I am in no way, nor have I ever been, connected with publications a SGA. I enjoy reading FOUNTAINHEAD and the in- formation that it provides to the student body. We have one of the best school papers in the state; even students from rival schools will admit this. It is a shame that "our" student government has nothing better to do than attack and ridicule the students' news- paper and the people who work there. I often wonder if SGA is really the "students government. It appears that the members of the legislature represent their own personal views rather than the students This is very apparent the fact that we, the student body, voted 2 to 1 in favor of independent publications but the legislature in its infinite wisdom is hell-bent on overturning the independence that the ECU Board of Trustees granted to publications. The legislature wants to hold a referendum with a campaign to try and influenoe student opinion. This is nothing more than an eleventh-hour grab for power. The opinion poll that was on the fall ballot was objective and not partisan at all. It did not give either a pro a con side of the issue, it simply asked the stud- ents for their honest opinion, just as it should have. Something that the SGA should remember is that the will of the people is supreme to the will of the legislature, and the people have spoken. To the staff of FOUNTAINHEAD, I commend you as do oountless other students fa your courage and struggle fa freedom. Keep up the good wak. Sincerely, Phil Marion 'Freezing students' irate at loss of heat in Wright To FOUNTAINHEAD: We, the freezing students of ECU, would like to complain about the facilities available to us in Wright Auditaium lobby. WHY IS THERE NO HEAT? The heating elements which were removed during fall semester are saely missed. Whatever heat they produce was certainly better than watching the frozen vapor ooming out of your mouth! It is supposedly under- stood that these are tempaary facilities. However it doesn't take an economics maja to figure out that the junk' machines make plenty of profits fa ECU. What are these funds being used fa? It seems that during the year since the machines have been in operation, they oould have prod- uced enough revenue to oomplete the floa in the new (will we ever see it?; snack bar. This writer cannot remember seeing wak beino done ai the snack bar since November. There has been much-to-do about the lack of funds available fa completion of the snack bar. What about the profits on our books?? Don't tell me there are no profits. How about .08 pencils? It seems that if the snack bar can't be completed, the least that could be done would be to ensure that the studnets have a semi- oomfatable place to go and study, a eat. After all, the "attendant" has a heater. Why should she be the only warm person? Tired of putting oof fee inthemiaowave! RMHMmimRRH BnHBIBiH Forum 14 February 1978 FOUNTAINHEAD Page 5 Art student upset over writer's 'review'of artist's siide show To FOUNTAINHEAD: I am writing to comment' on David Whitson's "Conceptual Artist" article concerning Nancy Holt, which appeared in your paper's rebruary 9th issue. It is apparent tome that David Whitson was more concerned with making a slurr against the reputation of the school of art than he was interested in present- ing the student readers with an objective, balanced, and accurate report on Ms Holt's visit to ECU. I should also mention that Whitson's use of the term, 'lady artist seems to show a blatent disrespect fa, and belittlement of women artists, and women in general. Concerning his accuracy in repating onMs. Holt's present- ation, Whitson failed to mention the lecture and slide presentation that proceeded the video present- ation, held at Blimpie's. Whitson's repat ai the subject of the video tape was inaccurate. Dennis Wheeler, not Robert Smithsen, was the artist who was dying of leukemia. (Dennis Wheeler happened to be a close friend of Ms. Holt.) Further, concerning the re- view of Ms. Holt's film present- ation, Whitson haspatrayed Holt as an artist who shows no concern fa the inhabitant of the New Jersey 'pineys I felt that this was na the case, as Ms. Holt's film was accompanied by a soundtrack which consisted of comments concerning the land- scape and the way of life fa the, pineys by the 'pineys them- selves. In my opinion, David Whitson has contributed absolutely noth- ing in regard to 'enlightening the students on the subject of Nancy Holt, and her art. Considering the many contributions that the school of art has made here at ECU, it is really tough fa me to stomach such biased, unsubstant- iated journalistic copy as David Whitson has presented in his article.

Artist's work on display in Kate Lewis Gallery thru Feb. 24 By STEVE BACHNER Trends Editor Art work by Eric Medhus of Stamford, Conn, and Franklin Lakes, N.J senior student in the ECU School of Art, is on display m the Kate Lewis Gallery through Feb. 24. A candidate for the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting and drawing, Medhus previously graduated from the Paier School of Art, Hamden, Conn where he studied commercial art and illus- ration. He has illustrated fa General Electric Credit Cap. and the Fairfield County Magazine. Medhus was one of several student artists in the U.S. chosen to exhibit wak in New Yak City last year, under sponsaship of the Society of lllustratas. Medhus believes in a stream of consciousness style of painting and drawing whereby the artist lets his feelings flow onto the canvas. He feels that time is nrt an essential facta in art and that something dote in minutes can have a great deal of character and show the feelings of the artist. By "rational manipulation Medhus has achieved a style that he feels can be enjoyed and appreciated by all. He offers a wide variety of paintings via the practical, intelligent handling of hisoosmetic. Precise and painstaking, Med- hus exercises his mastery over the "realistic" style of painting and drawing to accomplish the illusion of fam that he considers the most impatant aspect of his wak. Medhus feels that art is a oonmon and essential part of everyday life. Art is in the air we breath; the things we see and feel. We experience art in our sleep. Aocading to Medhus, the young artist should be dilligent. "If you really want to draw said Medhus, "it doesn't take an inadinate amount of talent-just a great deal of patience; sane discipline, and the desire to make something. "I find it hard to appreciate the abstract expressionists. I relate bettor to what I can see, like something illusionary ai the picture plane In 1972 Medhus was grand winner in a conic art contest sponsaed by the Mississauga News. Trends 14 February 1978 FOUNTAINHEAD Page 7 Jazz band Gallery lives up to the hype By DOUG WHITE News Edita One of the finest jazz ensem- bles to hit Greenville in a long time perfamed at The Line last weekend to a wildly enthusiastic audience. Gallery, a five piece band from Raleigh, had little trouble living up to the hype which proceeded their appearance. Gal lay's sound is typical of most popular jazz, centaed around an electric guitar and electric piano, played by John Wilson and Allen Linthicum. Howeva, one instrument in particular stands out. That instrument isthe voice of lead vocalist Bisa Staton. Staton' s voice has been fava- ably compared to Minnie Ripa- ton and Estha Sattafield. It has a light, airy quality, dancing along the scale with abandon. Gal lay plays well as a group, the instruments complementing each otha ratha than oompeting. Considaing the size of the dub, the sound system was remark- able. The band's repatoire ranged from Geage Bensai to Earth, Wind, and Fire, along with sevaal aiginal numbas. Each was pafamed with exuberance and flair. Staton's stage movements were somewhat stiff until lata in the evening, possibly due to the small stage area in which she had to move. The weakest memba of the band was bassist Tim Alston. His playing was uninspired and, mae often than na, unintaesting. Drumma Frank Presnell upheld as best he oould his half of the rhythm section, occassionally spurring his partna to take a chance. Gallay's rappat with their audience is one of the dosest this reviewer has seen in the Green- ville area. Staton's amiable pa- saiality draws the audience do- ser to the pafama. She ob- viously loves her singing and that love is shared by the audience. Vinyl Review by David Whitson Electric Light Orchestra: Out of the Blue Fa those who find the dassicalrook fusion of Emason, Lake and Palmer too cerebral, the Eledric Light Orchestra offas the altanative of an easy-listening blend of the dassical, rock, and pop genres. These long-haired British rockas have a firm background in long-hair dassical music, which they calculatingly blend with Beat lesque sounds to assure oommadal success. Coupling their music with the faddish and Freudian space art album cova (which depids an E.L.O. shuttleaaft thrusting into the gaping motha aaft) the "Orchestra" hasa sure-fire spedally priced two-reoad set ready to hit the racks. Unfatunately, the band draws too heavily on the wak of rtha groups in acter to achieve their blend of musical styles. Traces of Steve Winwood's "Pearly Queen Pete Townshend's "Pinball Wizard and almost any Beatles' song ('Maxwell's Silva Hammer "She's Leaving etc.) haunt the album, whose songs were written, sung, and produced by Jeff Lynne. The audial devices which lend so much cola to the Beatles' waks, ranging fron sound effects, vocal distatioi, and noisense lyrics, come aaoss as contrived imitation in Lynne's waks. Fran a few "Oh, oh, oh's" he ventures into the distressing Chooka chooka hoo la leyLooka Icokakoo la lay" od" Jungle "O-bla-di, o-tHa-da" it ain't. On the whole, the album oontains some decent easy listening music. A definite improvement in the unity and musical maturity of the band is revealed through the musical arrangements of the album, hopefully leading to a mae definite album to follow. Alan Parsons Project: Robot I'll admit it, I expected this album to oe good. It wasn't-it is excellent. Alan Parsons actually plays vay little on his albums. Instead, his role is to mix the airy space funk of his musidans with the dignified, somber tones of the English Chaale and the New Philharmonic Chaus. The concept fa the album is to tell the stay of the rise of the Machineandthededineof Man, because Man tried to aeate a robot in his own image, and Parson has produced a oonoept album that waks-a relative rarity. The album oonstantly changes tone, from upbeat space adventure vibes, reminiscent of the Star Trek soundtrack, to meditative ballads oomparable to the emotion-packed Jesus Christ Supastar" album. I predid that this album will become a modan dassic, as it evo1: z broad range of moods, well wath expaienang again and again. Thanks again to Bob at School Kids Records.

Instead of solving his puzzle, Deerfield becomes one himself in the eyes of Lillian, who seeks to learn the secret of death from a man who must face self-destruction as an occupational hazard. Rather than learn about death, the pair learn of life. Marthe Keller, one of Europe's most popular new actresses, delivers a captivating perfor- mance as the young heiress. Knowing that she is terminally ill, Lillian seeks to capture every fragment which she can grasp from the Kaleidoscope of life, and in so doing, draws Deerfield into a deep romantic involvement which surpasses their personal relationship, growing to encom- pass life itself.

Mack broke the reoord with over three minutes left in the game with an 18 foot jump shot. Perhaps even more of an accomplishment was that of the Pirate team itself that came away with their third straight victory. They put that streak on the line tonight against Old Dominion in Norfolk. The Aiken game looked to be all-Mack from the beginning as he was frequently mismatched with 5'9" Zach Norris. Mack scored the teams first eight points to spot the Bucs a four point lead. Following another fantastic Roger Carr inside shot Mack connected on a three point play and hit two more baskets to make it 19-8 with 1356 to go in the first half. The Bucs stretched it out to a 19 point lead at 49-30 and the game was no longer in question. Mack had 27 first half points and talksof a 50 point game sifted through the home crowd. Hill, Mack, and Herb Krusen upped the lead to 80-65 with 4 36 to play and the seats were getting hard. Then Mack broke the record. The game was momentarily stop- ped. The Aiken coach went ape and Larry Gillman called an .official time out. The game continued and rnard Hill celebrated with a urn around, reverse, double ip, m-your-face, lay up, that rilled the crowd and awed his lender. Hill is slowly returning form after missing several due to Mines. Hill, Mack, and Gray will all be called on fa tonight's game at Old Dominion. ODU smashed the Bucs two weeks ago but no one expects the same outcome in Norfolk. Gillman'stroops will be trying for win number eight before returning home on Monday to face Georgia Southern. The game can be heard on the Pirate Sports network tipoff is at 8.00. Sports ECU'S OLIVER MACK goes inside for two of his reoord breaking 47 points in Saturday nights win over USOAiken. Photo by Brian Stotler) if? Whitaker performs in big win over UNC - Wilmington By DAVID MERRIAM Staff Writer With piaymaking guards Wal- ter Moseley and Don Whitaker having fevers of over 100 degrees DON WHITAKER the Pirates invaded UNC-Wil- mington's brand new facilities last Thursday night and abused the Seahawks 90-85 to avenge an early season upset loss. The hero of the game was Don Whitaker. The ball hawking senior stabilized the Pirate attack and had only two turnovers for the entire game. "Walter (Moseley) and Don (Whitaker) both had high fevers said Pirate mentor Larry Gillman. "I had little choice, but Whitaker wanted to play" Adding even more pressure to the situation was that it was Whitaker's first start this season. As the game started, the revenge factor seemed to carry the Bucs and Whitaker. "Anytime I'm supposed to start I feel better joked Whit- aker. "But really, I felt weak and my throat was sore Whitaker was foroed to shout floor signals over the arrogant fans It proved a little more than I'm used to admitted Whitaker. Whitaker's performance was typical of ECU playing all through the game. The Bucs ran up as much as a fourteen point lead and led at the half 45-35. Oliver Mack was his flamboy- ant self scoring 34 points and dishing out numerous assists, a big difference from the first game when he was held to eight total points. Herb Gray added 26 and Greg Cornelius 21 as ECU won brag- ging rights for another year. Coach Larry Gillman said earlier in the year that he learned he could count on Don Whitaker in pressure situations and the Seahawks of UNG-W have proven tym right. by CHRISHOLLOMAN Dr. Pepper Spree This week the student body of ECU will have a great opportunity to see some excellent women's basketball. This Wednesday night the Lady Pirates will be matched against the 2nd ranked Wdfpack of N.C. State. Then on Saturday night the Lady Pirates will return to Minges Coliseum to meet the rival Tar Heels of UNC. Both games effect the pairing fa the state's Division I tournament which will be held here in Greenville. The Pirates are currently in 2nd place behind N.C. State and just ahead of UNC. To add to the excitement of the excellent games the Roberson Beverage Company will be presenting "The Dr. Pepper Spree What the spree involves is a concentrated effat by ECU'S fraternities and saaities competing with banners, noise makers, cheers, and costumes to win a cash prize of $500.00 in each division. It is an easy way to win $500.00 fa your fraternity a saaities. What aganizatiai oouldn't use that kind of money! So you owe it to yourself and the Lady Pirates to come out to Minges Coliseum on Wednesday and Saturday night to see and enjoy some great basektball games. The girls have waked very hard this year and they deserve the suppat of evay ECU student and the town of Greenville. Don't just sit back and do nothing; support the Lady Pirates! MACK SHOWSHIS"A.AFORM Anyone who attended the ECU-USC-Aiken game got a real treat. The treat of oourse was Oliver Mack's recad breaking 47 point perfamance. Mack broke two ECU recads in the game. He broke Jim Medlin's record of 42 points set back in 1969-70. He also broke the recad fa most baskets oonnected on from the flea with 19 of 26. Mack is truly deserving of All-American status this year. He has proven to everyone that he is a first class basketball player. BIG WEEK FOR PIRA TES What a difference a week makes. A few weeks ago the Pirates were losing to Richmond and now they have suddenly started showing what they are capable of. Fa the first time in three years the Pirates woi three games in a row. They also beat a team that had routed them at home earlier in the year (UNCW). A big facta in those three wins was the improved play of Herb Gray, Greg Caneliusand Dai Whitaker. There is sonething about mid-season that seems to bring out the best in Herb Gray. Last year Herb had his best play at that time and again this year the stay is true. Greg Canelius is probably playing his best basketball ever. Even though nagged by a knee injury Greg has been a bull on the boards while adding to the soaring situation. Greg is now a vital part of the ECU attack. He is probably the most improved playa on the team this year and win or lose, he always gives 100 on the court. Don Whitaker who took over at UNC-W fa a sick Walta Moseley showed real poise and senia leadaship in that big win down in Wilmington. His play was consistent andoonsidering he was up against one of the fast handed Martin twins his ball handling was excellent also.

So look out baseball fans, because ECU Head Coach Monty Little-30-12) isooming to bat! This year will mark Little's second season as head coach of the Pirates. "The fans will see a "78" squad that will be aggresive, that will hustle, and give no less than i 100 per oent said Coach Little. Judging from the returning personnel, it is assumed that his statement will hold true. The Pirates will have five seniors, four juniors, six sophomores, and eleven freshmen this year. The Pirates have been practic- ing since January 24. "We're one of few teams in the state to start this early with outdoor workouts said Little. "We lack the facilities for a productive indoor session The Pirates have held inter- squad scrimmages regularly. "This year our second unit is so strong that we feel an outside scrimmage is unnessessary said Coach Little. Concerning the pitching de- partment this year, the Pirates should fair well. "We're planning to run a four-man rotation on them this season said Little. "We have six or seven men who can throw stikes The returning Micky Britt (9-0), and senior Pete Conaty (8-2) are expected tp contribute a great deal to Pirate success this year. The area of hitting is perhaps Coach Little's only ooncern. "We have been hitting well in practice and hope to continue on itno the season said Little. Consistent good hitting is vital to any teams success, he said. The Pirates must hit well to defeat teams such as South Carolina, Clemson, and Va. Tech. These excellent teams are only a few on the rugged 47 game schedule. Nearly half of the games on the '78 schedule will be played at night. "I arranged these night games in anticipation that the students oould better support their team said Little. "An independent must play a strong schedule and win to get a regional bid Student support oould prove to be an important factor at the games this year, according to Little. Coach Little, who has played in the big time with such clubs as the St. Louis Cardinals, Houston Astros, and Detroit Tigers, is a confident team leader. The ener- getic Little is planning to delegate responsibility to his staff. "Associate Coach Hal Baird will primarily be in charge of the pitcher said Little. Coach Baird was previously a team member of the Kansas City Royals. "Assistants Tony Guzzo and Gary Overton will round out the Pirate staff. "The two will have individual practice and game responsibili- ties said Little. When questioned about his goals, Coach Little replied, "I would like to be a consistant winner and get a reional bid. "These goals are within reach The preseason outlook fa the Pirates is bright.
