Attorney David Stephens, spokesman for the chancellor, indicated that due to the time involved in the investiga- tion and the changeover to the administration of Dr. Brewer, the university did not have a specific response to the charges but would by no later than August 10 present a package which "will be a fair, a just, and equitable package that legally is going to be in oompliance with the HEW regulations On May 2, a committee representing women's athletics at ECU sent a formal letter of grievances to then chancellor Leo Jenkins. The grievances concern ed alleged inequities for women's athletics in areas such ,as equip- ment, travel allowances, locker- room, practice facilities, publicity and atheltic scholarships. Former chancellor Jenkins then formed the oommittee, which is comprised of: Dr. Artemus Kares, chairperson; Dr. lone Ryan, chosen by the students as their representative; and Dr. Robert Barnes, represen- tative of the university adminis- tration. On June 12, the commit- tee heard from the women's grievance committee and their attorney, Charles McLawhorn, Jr. of Greenville. At that time specific charges were made against the university ath- letic program. Wednesday's meeting was to be the session at which the university answered the charges raised on June 12. In his presentation before the oommittee, Stevens, who is the ECU Equal Opportunity official, did not specifically refer to any of the charges brought in the earlier meeting. He declined to elaborate in any way on the package to be presented, except to repeatedly insist that it would be fair and just to all athletes. ALL SPORTSRE-EVALUA TED After the meeting, Stevens told FOUNTAINHEAD that the package would be the result of a look at the entire sports program at ECU, and that the university is now concerned with athletes, not male or female, but athletes. DebbyNewby.a former JV basketball player and current activist in the grievance proceed- ing, told FOUNTAINHEAD that while Stevens' statement did not specify improvements in the athletic program, she felt that there was more cause for hope now than previously concerning parity with budget and program aspects of women's athletics at ECU. The hearing oommittee voted at the end of Wednesday's meeting to meet again in late August after both parties to the grievance had opportunity to 'Pretty high - Cannon Greenville sees increased summer rape incidence st udy the package to be presented by the university. After some questions concerning the possibi- lity of changing or responding to the university package in time to implement changes fa the com- ing school year, the board decid- ed to meet again August 30 at 2 p.m. The meeting is tentatively scheduled fa room 221 in Mend- enhali, according to chairperson Karee. CHANCELLOR BREWER PROMISES a complete re-evaruafcfj of the ECU athletic program. Such action is likely to favor women athletes, in whose name the Title IX grievance was brought against the university. iy KAREN C.BLANSFIELD News Edita The incidence of rape has been "pretty high" this summer in comparision toother summers, according to Greenville Police Chief E. Glenn Cannon. So far during June and July, three rape cases have been reported, as well as a number of attempted rapes. Two of the actual rape cases remain unsolved. Cannon attributes the higher rates of summertime to inaeased negligence on the part of victims. "It'shot, and they leave their windows open, they leave the doas unlocked he explained. "They don't secure them like they would during the winter months. This has been a lot it. Window fans - on two incidents, they've removed the window fans and went in the windows AUGUST INCREASE A survey conducted by the Nath Carolina Status of Women and released earlia this summer repated August to be the wast month of all, but Cannon faesees no problem, noting that August has never been wase in the past. Howeva, Cannon explained that women can take preventative measures to help pro001 them- selves, mainly calling the police department if they should notice a suspicious looking person linger- ing around their neighbahood. Nine times out of ten said Cannon, "wherever we have a rape to take place, we find out later that they had seen this party a person in the neighbahood. And they didn't pay it any mind MANYUNREPORTED Cannon said he would much ratha have the police answer a false alarm than not be notified and have something happen. "This is something that I've tried to get across to the public but it's hard Cannon also discourages women from walking alone at night, even early at night. Out of the rapes that occur in Greenville, Cannon estimated that pahaps twenty per cent go unrepated, although he pointed out that it is difficult to say. Such reluctance on the part of victims is due to the fear of embarass- ment and to the strain of a trial. The courts, said Cannon, "make a big mockery out of it He noted that it is usually the victim who is tried rather than the rapist. PRANCE AROUND' Why is rape on the inaease? This is a oomplex question, but Cannon offaed his own pasonal speculation as to why this is an escalating crime. "I thinkalot of it isdue to the fact that a young women will go in the house - and of oourse your home isyour castle, you can do as you please. That's true, as long as you've got the shades down, and all. "But when they go in and pranoe around in the room with nothing on, somebody's standing outside and watching them. Nine times out of ten, if a person's going to rape someone, he keeps them under surveillance fa a while and watches them, follows them, learns their patterns. And then when they go home, you know, and they're parading back and fath in the rcan with no otothes on, it encoaages some- body to break in. "I think if tliey would take preventative measures not to do that, it would cut down oonsicter- ably. Media Board debates WECU-FM issue By JIM BARNES News Edita WECU-FM and FOUNTAIN- HEAD payroll highlighted the meeting of the Media Board last Wednesday afternoon. In a continuation of questions raised earlier in a meeting with Chancella Brewer, the board oonsioered the purpose and fu- ture of WECU-FM as time draws closer fa the statiai to be granted a license fa aoadcast. The controversy over the station centws around the power to be broadcast, and, as a result o the power, the probable listening audience fa the station. John Jeter, general manager of WECU'FM , re-itaated that it would be nioe to have 50,000 watts full power, but he added that 5,000 to 10,000 watts would also be strong enough to reach Pitt and a few rther counties and still remain a "local" station. A radio station broadcasting at 50,000 watts sends a signal of such a strength as to consider that signal, and the station sending it, as "regional If WECU-FM was to go to 50,000 watts of power, the signal would be heard as far as Raleigh. The concept of a "local" station is one with a wattage of 5,000-10,000 watts, with a cares- ponding range of signal. Chancella Brewer met last week to voioe some uneasiness he had concerning the campus radio station. The two main concerns of the new chancella are the amount of power proposed to him as a goal (50,000) watts along with the responsibility involved with broadcasting a regional signal, and the fact that the university would have no oontrol ova the station calling itself the "voice of ECU Brewer's main recommenda- tion to the Board concerning WECU-FM was that the station hire a full-time professional radio pwson to ovwsee opaations of the station. The chancella felt this need in ada to protect the public image of ECU, especially if the station expanded to the 50,000 watts allowed by the frequency band fa which it is applying. See WECU, p 2 Page 2 FOUNTAINHEAD 26 July 1978 ������������ ot student affairs said that it had WECU continued from p 1 The Board on Wednesday picked up on Brewer's concerns and again questioned the wisdom of attempting a student-run stat- ion with enough power to reach Raleigh The board was unan- imous in hesitating to air a signal over such a wide area of population. At last Wednesday's Media Board meeting, members of the board again spoke to this point, noting that a first year salary fa such an individual was not within the budget. It was also noted that if the station was to operate on a 5-10,000 watt basis, a full -time advisor might not be necessary. Rudolph Alexander, associate dean been the intention that the station be that of the students, and operating at reduced power might eliminate the need for the oontrol of a full-time coordinator. Board members Mike Morse, Tommy Joe Payne and Dr. Thomas Eamon of Political Science, all adressed the question of whether the station was to be primarily for the students of ECU or fa the public at large. Operation of the station at 50,000 watts would necessarily involve the public, and a station of that power would bring in a host of considerations not relevant to a station operating on a reduced wattage. Jeter, general manager of the radio station, said that while he felt WECU should "go for all (the power) we can get the station could operate as a student station quite well at from 5,000 to 10,000 watts. Jeter is conoerned that a Wilmington station considering a power boost in its signal might bleed over and interfere with the smaller signal peam of WECU- FM. The board closed the current consideration of the station with a resolution to Dr. Brewer indicat- ing support for the 5.000-10,000 watt "local" station concept. PA YROLL FOUNTAINHEAD payroll was also discussed at the meeting. Members of the editorial staff were called into a closed-door segment of the meeting and questioned about their payroll entries. The dispute involved confusion resultant from a fiscal year changeover to a new budget July 1st. According to the new budget, FOUNTAINHEAD writers are paid 35 cents per column inch of oopy, with desk editors receiving 50 cents. The July payroll reflect- ed that some editors had oompul ed the entire month of June 14 July 13 according to the provi sions of the new budget, when properly, only papers appearing after July 1 were to be compute-J for column inch pay scale New Center helps families By GEORGETTE HEDRICK ECU Medical Writer "We are quality care choose the here to provide to families who Eastern Carolina IT'S NATIONAL HOT DOC MONTH AND WE'RE THE WIENER KING SAVE$ 1 20 WITH THESE COUPONS OFFER GOOD AT GREENVILLE LOCATION UNLY 1011 CHARLES ST.

And in offering that service we're providing quality medical educa- tion to students and residents So says Dr. James G. Jones, director of the center and chair- man of the Department of Family Medicine at the ECU School of Medicine. Opened this Spring, the Family Practice Center is serving patients from within a 50-mile radius of Greenville. Patients are charged fees comparable to those found in private practice, and the design of the offices is similar to those used by private practitioners. How- ever, when a patient registers for the first time, he or she is asked to give permission for the treat- ment to be observed fa instruct- ional purposes. "Cooperation from the pat- ients isessential fa the education of our family practice residents. And actually our center can assure patients of the highest quality care because of the caliber of our residents and faculty members Jones says. A team approach to health care is also emphasized at the center. Jones describesthe family practitioner as a "central hub care delivery revolve and one area in which the center will respond to that role is pharmacy. "We plan to investigate drug interaction and teach the concept that the pharmacist is a vital member of the health care team says Jones. "The relationship between the pharmacist and physician is very impatant, es- pecially in the area of patient compliance with prescribed med- ications Jones says a good waking relatiatship is also need,d bet- ween the dentist and physician. In addition to teaching students, the center also has a responsibility to practicing physicians. In conjunction with programs offered by the Eastern Area Health Education Center, the family practice staff is wak- ing ai plans to offer practicing physicians in eastern Nath Carolina the oppatunity to study at the center fa up to one month. Jones also expects the center to become involved in patient research. "Family physicians can look at adinary people with adinary diseases and analyze the patterns of disease processes as they exist on a primary level.

Orientation record success By KAREN C. BLANSFIELD News Editor The summer of 1978 has proved to be one of the biggest years in orientation according to Dr. James Mallory, Dean of Men at East Carolina University. A total of five orientation sessions - four for freshmen and one for transfer students - drew in 2500 new freshmen and about 525 transfer students, Mallory said. Fourteen full-time students assisted in the programs which began on Sundays and ended on Tuesdays, providing three days for incoming freshmen to take placement and by-pass tests, pre-regiater, and familiarize themselves with the campus. Not ail incoming students attended orientation, however. Eugene Owens, Associate Dean of Admissions, projected that new students would total around 2600- 2650 freshman and 700-750 trans- fer students. PROJECTED ENROLLMENT Becuase of the usual last- minute stragglers, it is impossible to predict the exact enrollment fa all until school has actually begun. But Diana Morris, a Lost and found procedure undergoes centralization By KAREN C. BLANSFIELD News Editor A new procedure for handling lost and found services is being put into effect this year on the ECU campus. Jospeh Calder, Director of Security fa ECU, said that all items found on campus should be turned into the Univasity Police Dispatcher at the Univasity Police Department, which will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Calda said that lost and found services will no longa be handled by the student unioi and the various department son camp- us. Having one central clearing- house fa lost and found will, he hopes, eliminate confusion and make it easier fa students to locate loot possessions. Calder urged that particular attention be paid to keys, request- ing that anyone finding keys turn them in to the police dispatcher immediately.

Of this numba, 10,970 are expected to be Nath Carolina residents, with the remaining 1150 coming from a scattering of other states, even as far away as Hawaii, according to Mallory.

By JIM BARNES News Edita The first two graduates of the ECU School of Nursing graduate program will receive their Master's degrees at the end of this summer session. The two studnets are Jean Maris of Colaain and Caroline Phillips of Goldsbao. Both Maris and Phillips will receive the degree of Master of Science in Nursing, with clinical concentration of study in medical-surgical nur- sing. Ms. Maris did ha advanced dinicaf concentration at Pitt Memorial Hospital in Greenville while Ms. Phillips received ha advanced clinical training at Lenoir Memorial Hospital in Kinston. Each candidate fa the M.S.N. degree must complete advanced clinical training in a functional area of teaching, usual- ly medical-surgical, parent-child relations a community mental health nursing. Maris and Phillips are the first two grad- uates of a program which hopes to graduate ten more students at the end of December The graduate program in the School of Nursing welcomed its first class of students in the fail of 1977. That opening was the sulmination of an effort to obtain the graduate school which began with a feasibility study undertak- en in 1973 by Dr. Dixie Koldjeski Dr. Koldjeski, who began the program, has just returned to the School of Nursing from a two year sabbatical during which time she was at the National Institute of Mental Health, whae she served as chief of psychiatric nursing fa the United States and its sions She is an R.N. and holds the PhD in Sociology Now back at ECU, Dr. Koldjeski will be the assistant dean of the School of Nursing and the director of graduate studies. During the absence from ECU of Dr. Koldjeski, the program was headed by Dr. Mohammed Ahad and Dr. Mallie Penry. With current trends in the health professions tending tow- ards hospitalization of only ser- iously ill patients, the need fa nurses with advanced clinical training is expanding, Koldjeski told FOUNTAINHEAD. While the bachelor's aogram empha- sizes nursing in a generalist sense, graduate study is needed to obtain the training, a clinical concentration, needed to teach nursing a to function in an advanced capacity in a hospital situation. The typical student in the M.S.N. program at ECU is a part-time student with a min- imum of one year of clinical nursing experience Accading to Koldjeski, the majaity of the 75-60 students currently in the program are part-time, and many have more than the mlnumum of one year of clinical experience. Admission to the program is made through the College of Arts and Sciences through the Grad- uate School; thae are currently 23 new admissions fa the fall' 78 semester Koldjeski emphasized that the program at ECU was holistic in approach, a ate which caisidas the patient as a whole person. While illness is an obvious area of study, Dean Koldjeski said that the nursing was not illness aiented, but patient aiented. : WAL-fc) 5 CHANELO'S Pizza 8L Spaghetti House 507 EAST 14th STREET GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA FREE DELIVERY dial 7537400 FREE DELIVERY Nothing beats i Pizza from CHANELO'S PIZZA - SPAGHETTI LASAGNA & SUBMARINES CALL OR COME BY YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TAKE A BREAK�DINE IN LUNCHEON SPECIAL A short submarine of your choice, salad, and tea.

Recently both of North Carolina's senators, Morgan and Helms, got a chance to have their arguments heard when they voted to deny funding of a proposed change in Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms regulations which would allow for a numerical registration system for handguns and a national computer bank storing information on registered guns. While several good arguments were made against the proposed change in the regulat- ions, they were mainly of a technical and economical nature, since the registration system is complicated and would cost $4.2 million. The Senate, for the ninth time since 1968, has still failed to protect American citizens from the virtually unrestricted proliference of cheap, small handguns. In 1976, according to the FBI Uniform Crime Reports, 10,592 homicides were committed with firearms, 63.8 per cent of all homicides that year. Federal lawmakers have consistently refused to pass any sort of gun regulation, many citing the so-called right to keep and bear arms. The second amendment to the U.S. Constitution however, qualifies the "right to keep and bear arms" by prefacing it with "a well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state United States Armed Forces long ago replaced the militia. As the law stands today, almost every adult can own a handgun. Why do we license drivers, automobiles, alcohol, and place strict regulations on the firecracker industry and yet leave firearms untouched? The horror of unregulated handguns is evident in the Son of Sam killings and the San Francisco Zebra murders. A ban on firearms is too extreme, as are undue restrictions on hunting and sport firearms, but handguns, especially inexpensive Saturday Night Specials and others should be severely restricted and penalties for using them in a crime should be more strict. The basic problem, however, is a psychological one. Too many Americans regard the gun as a macho phallic symbol, the possesion of which supposedly increases one's masculinity. Until this basic fallacy of the American psyche is corrected, most any gun control plan will meet with failure. IF Fountahhead Serving the Burnt Carolina community tor mat titty years.

Since when does Dr. Brewer consider himself an authority on radio programming? Just what type of programming is it that the people ought to hearFor once we have a chance to be a leader instead of running second behind State and UNC by possibly having the most powerful student operat- ed FM station in the state. I think that Dr. Brewer and other members of the administra- tion are simply scared to death that the students might have a radio station that is so powerful, that they would lose control of the university or something of that nature. Further I think that this idea is childish and obviously a matter of mass paranoia. It is also obvious that the administration is afraid that the student FM station will embarrass the university itself which is a lot of bullshit. If Dr. Brewer can't trust a student operation such as WECU which has been in operation for years before Dr. Brewer even knew about ECU, then the students obviously can't trust the new chancellor and he should be given a train ticket back to Texas. I think that the administration should let the Media Board run WECU as planned and that Dr. Brewer and the administration should keep their noses out of it. The students own WECU, not Dr. Brewer. He didn't pay for it, the students did, and the students have the right to hear what they wanf to hear, not what they ought to hear. Tom L. Zielinski Brewer should not 'meddle'in media To FOUNTAINHEAD: As one of the founders of the Media Board, I was greatly displeased to read the article in last week's paper about the chancellor's meeting with the Media Board. The reason that I, along with Neil Sessoms, Reed Warren, and Charles Sune, pushed for the creation of an independent board to fund the campus media was to ensure that freedom of express- ion, freedom of speech, and freedom of the press would be protected here at ECU. The chancel la's suggestion that a " professor al" be brought in to manage the radio station implies that the students who work in the media are incapable of operating a regional radio station. For once ECU has the chance to lead the state rather than play catch-up. If WECU does not go to 50,000 watts and broadcast from Raleigh to the coast then it is highly probable that WLOZ, the student radio station at UNC- Wilmington, will do so. This is a time for quick and decisive action. It is interesting to note that WLOZ is a student operated station and will continue to be so even if they go to 100,000 watts and broadcast across the state. Why shouldn't ECU do the same? It was brought to the attention of the chancellor that it was the policy of Dr. Jenkins' administra- tion not to meddle in the affairs of the student media. I feel it would be wise to carry on that policy of non-interference. The United States Constitu- tion guarantees numerous rights and privileges that would fall by the wayside were it not fa the free press which over the years has acted as a watchdog fa and praecta of the people. The issue at hand is na the name of the university, a the broadcast range of WECU, bu; rather who will oontrol the media and the voice of the ptiople. I believe that fnedon of expression fa students will be lost if a professional is hired to manage the radio station. As mentioned befae, the Media Board was created to prrtect the free press, and I should know since I helped write the proposal to aeate the board. The board should strive to pronote the largest and most influential media that it possibly can.

Here, then, is a late summer wrap-up of Second Look Events, for those of you who have beei on vacation, or simply asleep for the past couple of months. 1.) UN. Ambassador Andrew Young deserves a Second Look for his oomment to the French press concerning "hundreds, perhaps thousands, of political prisoners in the U.S It is believed that Young had people like the Wilmington 10 in mind, but after Carter defined a political prisoner as "one who is imprisoned for his a her political beliefs and faces time in Siberia Young withdrew his comments as inappropriate. 2.) A Second Look for achievement in the area of popular culture goes to members Forum HERALD staffer 'bored with the topic' ToFOUNTAINHEAD: Attention: Cindy Broome Regarding the July 19 edit- ion of FOUNTAINHEAD. Forum, page 4. I read and re-read the editorial "Ebony Herald a Waste" before submitting a letter of correction to Forum. Though I may be an "unable" newswoman, Ms. Broome, I am not impulsive. Though you are entitled, I fail to see the purpose of your reply. Is not Forum an opinionated feature also? And since "Most opinions, if not all, are biased (third paragraph), was not my previous letter to Forum (correct- ing the original editorial with sound facts not produced) unac- ceptable to FOUNTAINHEAD? Or is the newspaper you represent accustomed to submit- ting editorials based on opinion only, disregarding facts? Before my experience as staff writer of the HERALD, I had no journalistic training, which is why declined an invitation to join the Journalism Society of which I suspect you are a member. And WECU continued from p. 4 journalism course knows. The radio station should not be used as a recruiting tool. ECU does not need a recruiting tool. At the April 26 meeting of the Board of Trustees the board was told that the admissions office is receiving more applications than ever and that there simply wsuj not enough room fa all of the applicants that wanted to come to school here. A 50,000 watt, student operat- ed radio station would well serve this university and this part of the State, and ECU oould definitly lead for a change. The Media Board should seriously consider this proposal. Devoted to a free student media, Robert Swaim as long as my major remains Library Science, I have no intent- ion to enroll in any journalism class. The EBONY HERALD how- ever, does not daim to be a professional paper. It does not discriminate between educated' and uneducated' writers but accepts the unique abilities of each to contribute. Therefore, the EBONY HFRALD allows minority stud- ents with input, not necessary technical training, to become staff members. Bored with the topic, Sheila D. Mendoza of the White House staff. Aooording to Dr. Peter Bourne, those people really know how to smoke 'err, up there in Washing- ton. Now I think I understand yet another reason why Jesse Helms is called "Senator No In all probability, he s one of the few who doesn't, or hasn't at least once. 3.) A Second Look fa oversight in employment oppa- tunity goes to Jimmy Carter fa na hiring Leai Spinks to be on the White House staff. 4.) A Second Look at citrus processings goes to Anita Bryant, who seems to wind up in pulp every time she squeezes fruit. 5.) A Second Look in human rights needs to be taken by the International Harvester Co. (IH) which, acoading to press repats, chose na to cut off their deal with the Russians after the IH repre- sentative was jailed in Moscow on trumped-up charges.

James Brolin, the former oo-star of the "Marcus Welby" television series, assumes the role of an astronaut who beoomes an unwilling participant in a spectacular hoax to stage a manned flight to Mars. scene gives us Jim Brolin, a disappointing mannequin who ought to get himself a copy of Stanislavski's Building a Chara- cter and start on page 1, out on the desert with a deadly rattle- snake.

Hal Hdbrook turns in his usual solid perform- ance (he looks out of place in the company of the notoriously stone- faced Eliot Gould, Telly Savallas, and O.J.

Predictably, the movie's best moments depend on horror, a feeling not altogether different from anxiety. The most effective instance, Jim Brolin fills the bill) or the proficient visitor from outer space with the homespun horse sense of a practical 'errestrian. Here, the comedy i s served up for periodic relief. It is one of the chief weaknesses of the film. Senseless and very unfunny jokes crop for needlessly symbolic purposes. Telly Savallas, who shouldn't even be in this movie, is obnoxious if for no other reason than he is used to it. Cl iches are used sparingly and appropriately so that in the end, Capricorn One is effective be- cause it manages to avoid many of the familiar elements of science fiction films. Romance, which usually comes off badly in this kind of film, is limited to husbandwife relationships- the women mourn the loss of their astronaut hus- bands, et. al. The avoidance of this element is rare, romance, for whatever reason, seems endemic to the genre, but refreshing just the same. The would-be lunar oolonizers of H.G. Wells The First Men in the Moon are careful to include a mating couple of every domestic animal, yet neglect to bring along a woman. And science fiction ever since has fought a losing battle to find the woman's plaoe in the Intergalactic Era. It would seem almost inevit- able that Capricorn One would eventually become point lessly introspective and thus lose its surface appeal. Introspection and over-involvement mark the period of maturation for the science fiction film but does little, with some exceptions (notably, Reynolds misses as director in The End Kubrick's 2001 Space Odyssey), to enhance the viewer's enjoy- ment of the film. Capricorn One has mass ap- peal because it manages to avoid too much boring philosophizing about the loss of heros in our society which, incidentally, is void of any good oid fashioned patriotism. There will always be room in scienoe fiction movies for the far-out imaginative, and enough of the child survives in most of us to thrill to the engineered illus- ions of special effects and well ByJOHNWEYLER Staff Writer Burt Reynolds has fashioned a very funny movie from one of the funniest of all subjects - de th. This film, The End , is about the drollery of dying, the last laugh before the last gasp, the tickling of the ribs that proceeds the death-rattle of the bones. The End is about one man's end in particular, a man played by Reynolds, who finds he has one year left to live. His problem is not the toxic blood disease he's dying of, it's that he fails to see the humor in the situation. He doesn't know what to do, and he can't understand it. Mediane (embodied by Norman Fell, Strother Martin, and Carl Reiner as a dying doctor) and religion (personified by Robby Benson as a bumbling adolescent priest) hold no answer. So he mopes around, worrying about it, becoming a nuisance to his friends and family (David Steinberg, Joanne Woodward as his ex-wife, Sally Field as his girlfriend, Myrna Loy and Pat O'Brien as his parents, Kristy McNichd as his daughter), bur- dening them with his own person- al problems like the inoonsiderate slob he is. None of them help him any, anyway.

The End was originally written tor Woody A lien. What better way to change his image, Reynolds must have figured, than to play a Woody Allen-type rote Similarly, Woody understandably eager to change his own image, and probably hoping to pick up some chicks, has finally announced what his next film project will be the sequel to "Smokey and the Bandit with himself in what was Reynold's role ient to wait for the grim reaper to come fa him, he deades to do the job himself. His first attempt fails and lands him in an asylum where his first sight upon awakening is Dom DeLuise as a schizophrenic manic-depressive murderer on the loose from his own cell. Of course the two beoome fast friends. DeLuise tries to make Reynolds see the humor in his predicament. He is a fat jolly fellow, always laughing except when he's arguing with himself, who realizes just how much fun death can be. Reynolds still wants out, so the two go off on a merry frolic to help Reynolds oommit suicide by aushing, shooting, falling and hanging, none of which work. This oomproses the remainder of the film. The End is an important step fa Burt Reynolds. It is the second film he has directed, the other being Gator of a few years back.

Yet, though a film like Cap- ricorn One may catch our fancy, it is soon obvious that the more it changes, the more it remains the same The film utilizes the discovery of a method of staging a manned space flight to Mars that seems absurdly negligible in oomparision with the oomplex, expensive and impressive tech- nology deployed. This innately fantastic concept might have collapsed under the weight of an overliterate treat- ment. It would seem that the conoept would leave the prod- ucer s of the film nowhere to go but inward. The realization that this would have been a mistake has taken the film into the less philosophical domain of the arrival of a new Star Era. Capricorn One dumps the philosophy that appears to be common to many of the best science fiction fantasies and provides us with a good time instead of a moral. Plainly, directa Peter Hyams plays second fiddle to his tech- niaans, and rightfully so. While we don't get the opportunity to revel in the welter of dazzling special effects like we did in Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, we are treated to a runaway-car sequence and some of the best stunt flying in the business. At its only level, Capricorn One should please even the most rational of filmgoers. tii W�5jjjj8$1 Mural is worth 6a million words' 28JuJv1978 FOUNTAJNHEAD By FRANCEINE PERRY ECU News Bureau If a picture is worth a thousand words, the 17 x 12 foot mural oovering one interior wall of ECU'S Whichard Building must be worth a million. The mural, painted by recent art graduate Phillip Harris of Hamlet and mounted on a wall of ECU'S Kate Lewis Gallery, illust- rates important highlights of East Carolina's history. N.C. Governor Thomas Jarvis is depicted in the lower fore- ground of the imposing mural, holding the shovel with which he formally broke ground in 1907 fa what was to become East Carolina Teacher's Training School. Behind him, less definitely portrayed, are ranged shapes of persons present at that occasion. Harris describes his work as a blend of "realistic and minimal abstract styles, with some peo- ple and events brought into sharper focus than others. Those individuals who "play- ed a significant role" in the formation of East Carolina - Gov. Jarvis; the school's first presi- dent, Robert Wright; and early professors Kate Lewis, Herbert Austin and W.H. Ragsdale - are painted in a realistic portrait style and are readily recognizable by Harris' use of color and delineat- ion. "Where figures were import- ant as a group, emphasis was given to the group as a whole, and the individual figures are merely implied explained Harris Such groups, significant as milestone, include the first grad- uating class, a row of young ladies with pompadour hairstyles holding their class banner. East Carolina's first athletic team, the Goblins, is present also. Harris has relied upon archit- ectural details as well as faces and figures in his work. Two early buildings appear in detail, the Old Austin classroom building, now demolished, and Wright Building. Horizontal and vertical arran- gements of balustrated stairs draw the eye upward to the top of the mural, where he has combin- ed important architectural details of the gallery's interior. Sinoe the mural is hung near the ceiling, the interior crown mouldings are repeated at the top of the painting. A series of large rectangular side windows, ranged along the wallsat right angles to the mural, are oontunied in perspective in the mural itself. Harris undertook the mural as a senior project while he was finishing his studies toward the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from the ECU School of Art. His goals were to combine various approaches to painting and to involve elements of people 'andeventsin ECU'shistory in the large mural, whichwas painted on four large canvases for conven- ience in moving from the painting studio to the gallery. The sheer size of the painting posed a problem, he recalls. He had to mount a huge scaffold to reach most of the area, which made frequent surveys of his progress difficult. "I couldn't see at a distance to imagine and understand how the parts would function as a whole. Having never worked on a painting this size, I had to learn that you treat the surface not as a montage of different elements but as a functioning two-dimensional design Fa several months, Harris waked far into the night, some- times all night long, to complete the painting. Often, awed by the magnitude of his task, he deliberately took time out to study his unfinished wak and just think about it.

The musicians, Billy Cobham, Steve Khan, Alphonso Johnson, Tom Scott and Mark Soskin are superb jazz artists who aren't afraid to combine the complexity of jazz with the emotional appeal of rock. Alivemutherforya is a select - tion of the best of their live performances from the group's tour late last year. The jazz they make is mature, on a par with any of the jazz composers of today in their compelling rhythms and expres- sive cadenzas. They combine cool jazz with hot rock resulting in a music that is very entertaining, bouyant and intelligent. Steve Khan's distinctive guitar style has been prominently featured with artists as diverse as Larry Coryell and Billy Jones, and he is one of the most sought-after studio players in New York. In "On a Magic Carpet Ride his performances are startlingly in their overpowering intense urgency. His guitar sears, scorches and soars in that song like a magic carpet propelled by jets. In "Anteres" his guitar is light and brightly electric. Khan as a performer is forceful with finesse and subtlety. Alphonso Johnson plays the electric bass like he was born with one in his hands. He has played with Weather Report, Woody Herman and Chuck Mangione. His bass is ingeniously per- cussive, daring but always under- stated in the manner of the greatest bassists. Johnson's interest in funk becomes apparent ALIVEMUTHERFORYA IS COMPRISfD of the quartet's best performances on a live tour. after listening to the song on the album that he wrote, "Bahama Mama This song has a distinctly Carribean savor. The guitar pro- vides the rhythm and Johnson displays his talents against its backdrop. Tom Scott's work with tenor and soprano sax is full of energy and expertise. He also plays the lyricon, which is a fingered, electrified reed instrument. Scott has recorded and toured with George Harrison and Joni Mitchell. Two of the songs on this album, "Spindrift" and Shadows" are written by him and have been recorded by him before. He is a highly adept musician who has finely tuned group-sense as well as the ability to spin-off a shattering sax solo. Billy Cobham distinuished himself on the drums for the Miles David band on Jack Johnson and on John McLaughlin's first Mahavishnu Orchestra recordings. Cobham wrote the cooly elect- ric "Anteres" which is featured on this album and the excellent jazz numberOn a Magic Carpet Ride" also on Alivemutherforya. In "Carpet Ride" each music- ian has a chance to show his worth in both technical skill and expressive, interpretative qualit tes. It is a number that picks you up with its initial, catchy beat and doesn't let you down until after the final, brilliant cadenzas. Carpet Ride" is a jazz tour-de- force.

P. 9 Iruce Springsteen: "Determined ;o take life on his own terms" 26 July 1078 RXWTA1NHEAD P� 9 By DOUG WHITE Editor Four years ago, Jon Landau, len an associate editor of Rolling tone, wrote what is probably the quoted phrase in rock itiasm: "I saw rock and roll future and its name is Bruce jringsteen That future is gloriously realized on the Boss' lew album Darkness on the Edge lot Town. Springsteen is the poet of the j proletariat class; discounting Dylan, perhaps the most signifi- cant songwriter of the past 20 years. His lyrics are uniquely American, capturing the frustra- tion of living in a post-industrial- ized society not completely sure of where it has been or where it is gong. Automobiles, that classic- ally American invention, serve as a focal point for many of Springsteen's songs, symbolizing the transitory nature of American white urban society, a society which has found itself in the present with little heritage to look back upon. Springsteen is determined to take life on his own terms, to live it as intensely as it can be lived, not on the terms of the powers that be, in this case the corporate structure of America. Ashe sings in "Badlands "I don't give a damn,for the same old played out scenes, 1 don't give a damn for just the in betweens, Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul, 1 want oontrol right now There are frequent references to being on "the line" or "the wire that narrow ridge between conformity and open rebellion upon which Springsteen balances so precariously. Here is a man who dares to push himself as far over that live as he can and still return intact. He walks the rope without a net and honestly doesn't give a damn whether he falls, because if he succeeds, he will have the satisfaction of having been over the edge and lived to tell about it His characters are drawn from the streets, their existances as black and barren as the pave- ment: "end of the day, factory whistle cries, men walk through these gates with death in their eyes, and you just better believe, boysomebody's gonna get hurt tonightit's the . . working life ("Factory' ). Each longs fa his "moment a chance to stand up and affirm himself. Itisaform of redemption. Springsteen knows his sub- jects well, but unlike the ones who "(die) little by little, piece by piece ("Racing in the Street"), he chooses to ding steadfastly to his belief in a promised land, to rise up in the face of his oppressors and defiantly announoe "mister I ain't no boy, no, I'm a man ("The Promised Land"), to "blow away the dreams that tear you apart . . . that break your heart ("The Promised Land"). He sings for those who know "that it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive" (�"Badlands"). He subjects himself to a total spiritual catharsis in "Adam Raised a Cain finally coming to grips with the chasm between his father's values and his own. His father worked all hib life "for nothing but the pain,now he walks these empty rooms, looking for something to blame Father and son, "with the same hot blood burning in our veins The famous Springsteen back- street howl is less a battle cry here than it is a primal scream, a necessary outlet for survival. His backup band, the E Street Band, provide him with the power and perfection his genius de- mand. Indeed, it is the same genius which forces them as dose to the edge as they dare go. Springsteen's longtime friend, saxophonist Clarence Clemmons, although he has fewer solos on this album than on the previous Born to Run, ads as the perfect counterpoint to Springsteen's lead guitar, subtly bending a triumphant dimax into a tragic ending. Far too many rock artists are revered with messianic devotion by their fansand the critics alike. Reynolds andDeLuise co-star iiThe E nd BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN IS right on target with his latest album For once, however, here is music that can change the course of our existanoe, of our self-awareness, if only we will listen. continued from p. 6 wise-cracking, two-fisted good ol'boy director The End was originally written for Woody Allen. What better way to change his image, Reynolds must have figured, than to play a Woody Allen-type role? Similarly, Woody understandably eager to change his own image, (and probably hoping to pick up some chicks), has finally an- nounced what his mystery- shrouded next film project will h thp -rv-juei tc Siiokey and the Bandi' with rti .isbii in what wci rteynotd's role. He also has reportedly been negotiating with JAZZ Cosmopolitan about his doing a nude centerfold. 11 The End as in Woody's films, tnere lies deep psychologi- cal meaning and symbolism be- hind the humor. The symbolism here relates to the film's theme of death. Reynolds and DeLuise are opposites: Reynolds is tall, mus- cular, bearded, and handsome, while DeLuise is short, fat, dean-shaven, bald and homely. Reynolds spends most of the movie whining and crying over something as unimportant as his own demise, whereas DeLuise is a smiling, happy-go-lucky sort, too free and joyful to worry about such trifles. They represent the dark and light sides of man's soul and how they respond to death. Reynolds is the fragile mortal side, which misunderstands and fearsdeath DeLuise is the spirit- ual side which recognizes life as a joke, and death as its punch-line, the jolly jolt that takes us from here to the eternal belly-laugh of heaven. The eternal oonflid between the two sides is best expessed at he film's dimax. Reynolds, after nearly drowning himself, decides he doesn't want to die after all. Suddenly, up pops DeLuise not knowing of Reynolds' change of plans and still intent on helping his friend die. Weilding a huge knife, he gc s after Reynolds in a mad Mack jtnnet - like chase. As The End ends, the chase freezes into a dassic representat- ion of the struggle between life and the snickering spectre of death.

End off Week Specials Pag 10 FOUKTAINHEAD 26 Juty 1978 Appalachian looks for improvement in '78 ByCHRISHOLLOMAN Sports Editor This is the ninth and tenth in a series of scouting reports on ECU'S 1978 football opponents. Next week we will finish the series with a report on the Thundering Herd of Marshall. This week in order to finish the series before the end of summer school we will also scout the Keydets of Virginia Military as well as ASU. Last year had to be a real letdown fa the loyal fans of Appalachian State football. The Mountaineers were ex- pected to field the top team in the Southern Conference and finish with no less than six or seven wins. Things however just did not work out for ASU last year as the Mountaineers slumped to one of there worst seasons in their football history. Last years 2-9 record can be blamed on a number of things. Probably the biggest reason for the Apps first losing season since 1973 was a very young defense. At some times during last season the ASU offense was nationally ranked in some national offensive catagcries but unfortunately the defense gave up more ground than the offense could gain. But what about this year? Can the Mountaineers bounce back and take their place among the Southern Conference top finish- ers once again? From the looks of things it appearsthat the Apps will have to try to win with a very young offense and most of last years defense. It seems however that the losses on offense will be almost too much to overcome. In fact the losses read like a Who's Who of ASU football over the last four years. Gone are wishbone master Ftobby Price and his backup Chris Swecker, All America center Gill Beck, halfback Emmltt Hamilton, Defensive end Jay McDonald among others. So far it appears that the Mountaineers are in real trouble and to a certain degree they are as far as experience goes. But don't get the idea for one minute that the talent is not there fa a good season because it is. The maja weakness of the team as mentioned befae will be the offense where only four starters return fa the '78 seasai. They are halfback Soott McConnell, who is getting a lot of attention from pro scouts. The maja problem on the offense is to find a quarterback to run the ASU wishbone. There are quite a few candidates with sane experience vising fa the posltiai. They are sophonaes Steve Brown and John Keith, and fraitrunner John Keefe. At left tackle Robert Mullen will be a new starter Chuck Cole has the unenviable task of trying to replace Gill Beck at the centa position. As mentioned befae Russell Wilson will return at the guard position At the aha guard position It is a tossup between Steve Parrish and Ernie Hendasoi. Hendasoi is a 5-8 240pounda. At the right tackle position It is a two way battle bewteen Dan Medlin and Mike Garna. At the tight end position it Is two way battle between Dan Medlin and Mike Garna. At the tight end position expect to see Stan Cummingham a 6-2,240 pound junia with back up help fron Join Keeton and Chris Pattasov Expected to start at the fullback position will be Greg Kilday a 6-1,210 pound junia. At the left halfback Soott McConnell will return. The other halfback position will probably go to Arndd Floyd a 5-11.178 pound sophomae. In contrast to the ASU offense the Mountainea defense return eight startas from last year. The emphasis this year how- eva will be on defensive quick- ness so some of the uppadass startas really have to battle fa their starting positions to hold off a talented group of freshmen. At left end David Garna seems to have the starting nod. He is a 6-2, 215 pound senia. At the left tackle spot it is a two man battle between Steve Rice and David Turna. M Iddle Guard will probably go to Greg Angles, frO, 210 pound sophonae. At the right tackle will be 6-4, 210 pound Eric Elkin. he will be pushed howeva by promising sophomae Willie Stricklin who is 6-3, 239. At right end Semi Killman will be back to handle that position. The linebacking positions ap- pea to be one of the strong suits of the ASU defense. The top returnasare David Bowman and Pat Murphy. Murphy is also the defensive captain and is a sure bet fa all Southan Gonfaence at seasons end. Strong Safety Mile Prltchett, 6-0,196 pound sophomae will be the top returna to his position. The aha returnas in the secondary are Butch Cannady and Gary Fa) den At the left canaback Jeff Vincent and Tommy Helms will fight it out fa the right to start this fall. On the surface it appears that the ASU football team is in for a long painful season. As mentioned before the talent is certainly there but it has to be developed. Then again when you look at the tacts it appears that Appalachian State should be Improved. The defense will be improve and the offense will have less pressure on it than last year. The schedule is also much kinder this season with South Carolina and Ball State being replaced by Woftord and East Tennessee State so a better record should be in store for the Mountaineers of ASU.

Photo by Brian Stotler By SAM ROGERS Assistant Sports Editor Al Tyson, a 6-10 prep standout from D.H. Conley High School said there were no rules violations involved in his decision to sign a grant-in-aid with ECU, according to a stay published Thursday in the Greenville Reflector. "As far as I know the East Carolina basketball program is clean Tyson said. Tyson, who was heavily rec- ruited by many schools last season, was the object of a bitter struggle between ECU and the University of Mississippi. Tommy Yeagers, a member of the NCAA Enforcement Commit- tee, came to Greenville two weeks ago to investigate the alleged recruiting violations. Although Yeagers would not comment on the reason fa his visit, he did question ECU head coach Larry Gillman. assistant coach Herb Dillon, and Tyson's high school coach, Shelly Marsh Dave Berst, the Directa of the NCAA Enfacement Committee, said Monday he was in no position to make a statement concerning the ECU investigation and that any public infamatioi would have to cane from the athletic directa.

Marsh said earlier Ole Miss assistant coach Eddie Oran was extremely upset when Tyson signed with ECU although he did no know whether Mississippi was respoiable fo the NCAA probe Ole Miss head coach Bob Weltlich said last week he would neither confirm no deny whether the Rebels were reponsible fa leveling charges against the Pirate program.

The Keydets 7-4 mark of last season oould happen again this year if the proper replacements are found fo the graduated senias in the VMI backfield. The biggest problem, a so it seemed until last weekend was replacing Andre Gibson the VMI single rushing and an All- Southern Conference selection. He rushed fo half of VMI's offensive output last year with 1218 yards. It appears then that a replace- ment will be hard to find but help is on the way. Floyd Allen a 5,10 170 pounder from Raleigh, Sanderson will fill the gap fast. In last weekend's Boy's Hone Game played in Carter Stadium the speedster showed he is at the runningback position as well as being a superia defensive back. AnOher replacement is need- ed at the fullback position to replace the team's leading scoer, Steve Oddi. Joe Robinson is expected to take over there. Probably the biggest wary on the Keydet offense will be trying to replace flanker Jimmy Garnett who also was a great kickoff and punt return man. Three letterman are fighting it out fo the position They are Larry Williams, Jiff McLean and Carl Jackson A real plus in the backfield however will be the return of quarterback Robby Clark. Clark is a 51 percent passer On the offensive line four of five starters returns. At the tackle position three letterman will battle it out fa the starting position. They are Bob Bookmaller, Alan Satis and John Shuman. At the center position Criag Cox is the returner. The tight end position is set with Greg Weaver (eight catches for 144 yards) returning. On defense the problem seems to be at defensive tackle position. Gone are three-year starters and All-Southern Confer- ence stars Ned Stepancvich and Dutch Goddard. The replace- ments are long on talent but shot oi experience. They are Tommy Earle, Joe Belda and Pat McCarthy. Jeff Magan will once again man the middle guard sia. Tim Cox will return to one of the end positions. Richard Bates, Nick Collins and Mark McLean will fight it out fo the other end position. The secondary appears in good shape as there are.experien- ed lettermen returning. They are Gary McNeal, Tony Hamilton at the canerbacks and Mike Alston and Walt Bellamy at the safety. The Keydets also have one of the best placekiokers in the country. Returning is Craig although he now must develop his punting ability. It appears that the Keydets will be tough again if the new faces can get the job done The VMI schedule is tough with the Keydets having to face Georgia among other" Still VMI should fight it o the other Virginia sch ior the "Big Five" title and they also should gain the Southern Conference title once again 'JiaAftTNWftU SWUM iiAiliJ POTATO J vj&a ?$ �� -a - . �� f Pay 12 FOUNTAINHEAD 26 July 1978 Wayne Hall Pirates newest assistant coach r i ( A 11� h r V 4 Vh K 1 ECU DEFENSIVE LINEMEN Wayne Poole, and linebacker Harold (Randolph smother an Appala- chian State halfback.

By SAM ROGERS Assistant Sports Editor When ECU head coach Pat Dye announced last March Wayne Hall had joined the Pirate coaching staff, the occassion marked a reunion of sorts. Hall spent seven years at Alabama, five as a player and two as a graduate, while Dye was an assistant coach in charge of linebackers on the Crimson Tide staff. But Hall, a native of Hunts- ville, Alabama, will be the first to admit that Dye hasn't changed one bit sinoe his coaching days at Alabama. Well, maybe a little. "I think his hair has probably grown a little longer, but that's about it joked Hall. "But his move from an assistant coach to a head coach hasn't changed him. Since I've been here at East Carolina I haven't met anyone who didn't like him. He really commands a lot of respect Before landing a job on the Pirate coaching staff, Hall spent two seasons as an assistant ocach at Virginia Tech under Jimmy Sharpe. But when Sharpe was fired in November after back to back losing seasons, the entire staff was released. "Coach Dye was the first person to call me after we had been released explained Hall, who will coach the defensive line at ECU. "Of ail the people I wanted to work with Coach Dye was certainly my number one choice "He had coached me while I Art & Camera Shop 526 SOUTH COTANCHE STREET GREENVILLE, N. C. 2783 was at Alabama and I had also waked with him as a graduate assistant so I was real pleased to get the oppatunity to wak with him Both Dye and Hall are prod- ucts of the legendary Paul "Bear" Bryant who has built a Southeastern Confaenoe dynasty at Alabama. Dye handles his assistant coaching staff at ECU much like Bryant supervises his staff at Alabama, acoading to Hall. "Coach Dye believes in letting the assistants do most of the fundamental coaching noted Hall. "When the assistants be- lieve in the same coaching fundamentals as the head coach it makes everything wak a la more smcothly. Coach Dye oertainly does an excellent job of waking with his staff When pre-season practice opens in two weeks, Hall will inherit eight lettermen at defen- sive line from last year's squad including four startas. Fred Chavis, Oliver Felton, Noah Clark, and Zack Valentine were all starters last season. "Depth will be our maja problems on the defensive line said Hall. "Wayne Pcoie will be out fa the next year with a knee injury which will hurt us up front Vance Tingla and D.T. Joyner could help us a la and we're counting on some freshman to provide immediate help But fa now Wayne Hall is quite happy to be back with a familiar coaching system, and most of all-his old college coach.
