For many, just sharing a room with another person was a new ex- perience and roommates moved awkwardly through their first days. Often,just the intimacy of strain- ing together to get a refrigerator across campus and into the room was enough to break the shyness. New and old roommates alike hag- gled over the placement of posters and plants and the rooms slowly took on the shape they were to have for fall semester. Some students turned their rooms into homes away from home, while others de- cided early to use their rooms as a place to crash and leave dirty laun- dry. The pay phones in Greenville were busy those first nights as homesick students placed collect calls while waiting for their tele- phones to be hooked up. And eager beavers began to check their mail- boxes as soon as the keys were is- sued. Everyone went downtown those first nights trying to meet new people and find old friends. Things always seemed a little brighter after a few cold beers. For the first and only time dur- ing the semester, students looked forward to classes. Class meant that Drop-Add and Registration would be over. Everyone from the most jaded senior to the most frightened freshman dreaded Drop-Add. The heat and the crowds were stifling. Still, students waited in the ever- lengthening lines and tried to ei- ‘ther change eight o'clock classes to a more reasonable hour or pick up classes that might or might not help them graduate. Once classes did start, the tedi- um of the first days still had to be suffered through. Professors hand- ed out their syllabi and then read them, slowly, aloud. Right: Refrigerators were made available by the SGA to dormitory students. They rented for $40 a year with a $10 deposit refunded at the end of the year. Many students found this alternative better than buying a refrig- erator. The lines at the student store and the UBE rivaled those of Drop-Add and everyone spent ages pawing through text books to fine the least tattered of the used ones. Precious dollars went toward spanking new notebooks that would emerge rag- ged and doodled at the end of the semester. And those who thought they would beat the system and buy books ahead of time usually waited miserably in the buy-back lines with the wrong text. The cash registers totalled amazing sums and already students were calling home for more money. In the end, a routine was estab- lished and everyone settled into the cycle of daily classes with occasion- aly weekends off for good behav- ior. The school year had begun.

The first totals re- ported showed Brett Melvin as winner of the presidential race with 972 votes. Candidate Libby Lefler came in sec- ond with 902 votes and Mike Adkins was third with 774 votes. Fountain- head reported the next day that David Cartwright, SGA vice-president at the time, had stated the election results were uncertain because vote totals were unofficial. According to Cart- wright, when ballots from some boxes were counted a second time, a discre- pancy in the two totals was discov- ered. On April 3, Fountainhead reported that Melvin did win in the recount that was held March 30. The story also stated that charges of campaign viola- tions had been filed against Brett Mel- vin by Libby Lefler and Student Union president-elect Charles Sune. Charges were also brought against Ricky Lowe, winner of the race for treasurer, by his opponent Steve O’Geary. The complete nature of the charges was not made public; howev- er, new Vice-President Charlie Sher- rod was made acting president. SGA Attorney General Kieran Shanahan referred the case to the Student Re- view Board. On April 10, two weeks of uncer- tainty about the elections ended. Mel- vin was charged with violating SGA General Election Rules on _ three counts: 1) that Melvin did not report publication of the Alternative Press on his expense list (violating Article 10, sect. 2); 2) that Melvin’s cost of printing the newsletter plus his other campaign expenses exceeded the $200 limit for all candidates (violating Arti- cle 10, sect. 1); 3) that Melvin turned in only a partial list of his campaign workers by the deadline (violating Ar- ticle 6, sect. 3). The Alternative Press was a news- letter distributed the day before elec- tions. Although it did not support anyone, the newsletter was aimed against those candidates supported by Fountainhead. Melvin denied having any knowledge of or connection with Alternative Press. National Printing Company, which printed the Alterna- tive Press, confirmed that the cost was $375 and that former SGA President Tim Sullivan was billed for payment. Even so, it was contended that since Melvin included Sigma Nu brothers on his campaign workers list, and Sul- livan was listed as a Sigma Nu by the Dean of Men, that Melvin was re- sponsible for Sullivan’s actions. Melvin attempted to prove that Sul- livan was inactive all year and that the Sigma Nu’s as a group were not re- sponsible for the Alternative Press. Sigma Nu President Mark Sorenson testified that Sullivan was not consid- ered a member because he had not paid dues or attended social functions of the fraternity. After only a forty-minute delibera- tion, the Student Review Board ruled in favor of Suné. Lefler had dropped her charges because she was runner- up in the election. Lowe was found innocent of failing to report a Foun- tainhead ad, but guilty of two charges pertaining to the Alternative Press. Both Melvin and Lowe were disquali- fied, and runners-up Lefler and O’Geary were sworn in. Yet the controversy students thought had ended was just begin- ning. Fountainhead reported on April 24, that the Review Board’s decision had been appealed to Chancellor Thomas Brewer. After two weeks of deliberation Lowe was sworn in as treasurer. His appeal was upheld be- cause of a technicality. The charges against him were filed after the dead- line for bringing such charges which is 24 hours after announcement of election winners. Brewer upheld the Board’s decision concerning Melvin. Melvin then petitioned the Board of Trustees to “reverse and over-ride” his disqualification and order his reinstatement. Melvin’s appeal blocked Lefler’s appointment as presi- dent, and Vice-President Charlie Sherrod once again became acting president. Melvin hired an attorney to speak on his behalf and a Board of Trustees hearing was held on May 1, 1979. Board members Louis A. Singleton, Ashley B. Futrell, and William L. Powell listened to questioning of wit- nesses for both parties by Melvin’s attorney, Robert Morey, and SGA At- torney General Kieran Shanahan. During that questioning Sullivan, publisher of the Alternative Press, stated that Melvin had asked him for support, but that he had refused be- cause he did not feel that Melvin had enough experience to become SGA President. Sullivan also stated that Melvin had known nothing about the Alternative Press. He said that he worked on the publication with Alonzo Newby, and that he had paid for it by selling his Marvel Comic Book Collection. On June 7, citing “no evidence whatsoever that the money for the AI- ternative Press was spent with the knowledge or consent of Brett Mel- vin,’ the ECU Board of Trustees passed a resolution declaring “Mr. Brett Melvin SGA President-elect as the bona fide president of the SGA.” Plaintiff Charles Suné stated that the Board of Trustees handled the pro- ceedings in a very professional way. “I simply made a mistake when I did not hire an attorney to argue on my be- half,” Sune added. “When Brett listed Sigma Nu brothers as campaign workers, that included Tim Sullivan because he was a Sigma Nu. The AP was done on Brett’s behalf and should have been listed in his expenditures,” continued Sune. Sune stated that it was a shame stu- dents could not solve their problems on campus among themselves. . He also added that there might be a need to revise the campaign rules. He said that if he had the chance to do it all again, he would behave in the same way. “I will always believe that Brett was involved in the APand was guilty of wrong doing,” Suné concluded. Melvin stated that he knew abso- lutely nothing about the Alternative Press and was not involved with it in any way. He explained that the only reason he simply listed Sigma Nus as campaign workers instead of giving specific names was that he could not be sure which of his brothers would be helping with the work he left at the Sigma Nu house, and that he wanted to be sure no one who worked on his campaign would also work at the bal- lot boxes. Melvin admitted that, he had asked Sullivan for support, but had been turned down because of his lack of experience. He also stated that he did not consider Sullivan an active member of Sigma Nu fraternity. Mel- vin said that he hired an attorney to argue these beliefs for him in front of the Board of Trustees because he felt that his situation had been mishan- dled up to that point. “I’d taken every- thing they could throw and won in spite of them. I wasn’t about to give up or quit,” Melvin concluded. 19 SGA Elections INE RGELE B LPL LPL IOI ORE SEIN tr ae Se A EE IAD ITO.

With co-ed life, you come and go as you please and, because both sexes live in the same building, you don’t have to protect one from the other. Oh, there are bad points to co-ed dorm life. One is the fact that visitors are allowed at any time without fore- warning. I mean, it’s just a knock on the door and they’re there — no inter- coms, nothing. Face it, you just have to get used to the fact that as you step from the showers into your room a being from the opposite sex will prob- ably come for a visit. That’s co-ed life. But it’s not bad after you learn to be cautious about what you wear from the shower. There is one other small problem some of the females in the co-ed dorms may run across — what to watch on TV. You might as well face it, if there is football, basketball, base- ball, soccer, tennis, rugby, volleyball, golf, swimming, diving, field hockey, ice hockey, weightlifting, lacrosse, boxing, wrestling or even polo on TV, you're just going to have to endure it. And just tell me when there’s a season that at least one of those isn’t gracing the television screen. I mean if it isn’t Monday Night Football, it’s some Tuesday night Special Event. Before | get carried away, I'll go on to another subject. All in all I think co-ed dorm life is great. I think it should be expanded throughout the campus, with the exception of a couple of single- sex residence halls for those who truly prefer not to live with members of the oppo- site sex. With the coming of summer, my roommate and I decided that we’d try a change of pace — wed move off campus. With Jarvis Dorm being the only air-condi- tioned residence on campus, liv- ing in an uncooled dorm would be unbearable. We didn’t want to take chances so we began hunting for apartments to sublease. After all, we thought it would be fun to have more than just one room to live in for the summer. Well, dreams and reality are two different things as most of us realize by now. We spent one month search- ing for a place to stay. Apartment after apartment. “Well, we'll let you know. We’re going to see a few more people and then we will contact you,” 32 Student Life etc., etc. We got tired of waiting and decided to rent a trailer instead. After all, apartments were too expensive, and roommates wanting roommates were too picky. The rents ranged from $115 for your basic two-bedroom slum to $200 for one a bit more elabo- rate. One discouraging day after look- ing at two inappropriate trailers, we came across the perfect place: nice yard, two bedroom, furnished, wash- ing machine, lawn mowing and trash pickup provided, air conditioned, and $160 a month. We placed our $50 de- posit down and started calling the place home. Then came the hard part. Rent was due on the first, hook-up of utilities required not only a service charge, but a deposit as well, gas stove meant gas to buy, and though the phone company doesn’t require a de- posit from university students, a $27.00 installation fee is a must. Now, at $3.10 an hour, my paycheck has limited flexibility, but somehow we managed. Rent was paid as soon as we got paid. Luckily, the utility company doesn’t require their usual $50-$85 de- posit if you have someone who has had utilities in their name for two years sign a statement of responsibil- ity. Thank goodness for friends. The phone bill of $27.00 left little for each of us to live off of for the remaining two weeks, but, through starving, we now had a place to call home for the summer. . a ERT a EE SLE TELE LCE I EIGER ET SIS CTEM SMI ca RBM I RN nrg tee (Ppp Ie: MN Sr We Pe eAT SEP AEE EDR ee BEI Lab Le Fo ee Yr, GI IO « ity, Above: Hours of hard work went into preparing the main course for the annual Spring Fling.

Our plants, pic- tures and familiar furniture truly made it comfortable. We packed and unpacked, switched and reswitched practically every piece of furniture we had at least twice. After one full day of moving and rearranging, we had the place like we wanted it. It was ours for the whole summer — we thought. Tuesday, exactly three days after we moved in, we were evicted. Boy, doesn’t that throw a wrench in one’s summer plans. At six am. I woke to a harsh pounding on my bedroom wall. “Get up, I want to talk to you.” “What? Can’t you come back later, it’s six a.m.” I laid my head back down on my pillow, knowing whoever it was would understand. I was wrong. “T want to talk to you now.” It was the landlord’s father. He lived right next door in the quaint little white house. He seemed fairly nice when we’d met him before, but I was definitely having second opinions about him at this moment. He pounded a fourth time. Oe es The first words I heard when I opened the door were, “I want you two out now.” He was definitely mad about something and, at this point, I was sure it couldn’t be the little get together we had had the night before with a few friends. Again I was wrong. “Ya'll were running around here like a bunch of maniacs last night. I know. Your music was blasting and it kept everyone awake all night long. I know, cause I watched you all night.” “Sir,” I said trying to be as polite as I possibly could at six a.m. after hearing this news, “I think you are being a bit unfair. I know we had the stereo going and everything but I hardly think it was loud enough for an eviction.” “It wasn’t just your radio. You all were drinking. I know, I saw you. You, young lady, were especially drunk when you came back the first time.” (We had all left at ten to go over to River Bluff for a swim in the pool.) “You're wrong about that. I didn’t have anything to drink last night.” “Yes you did, I know a drunk when I see one. You couldn’t even get in the door last night.” I refrained from telling the old kook that the reason I couldn’t get in was because the door always stuck and you could never get in. “Well you are wrong this time. | should know whether I was drunk or not, I was there.” “Well, if you weren’t drunk then you Student Life were doped up on some kind of drugs or something. I know you college kids.” “Now you're going a bit too far. I was not ‘doped up’ last night and you have no right to accuse me of being that way.” “Well, whatever, I want you out now. My baby daughter (age 50) will give you the rent and your deposit back. I want you out today or as soon as you can find a place. And another thing, this porch light was on all night long. I know. I saw it.” “T paid for the bulb.” “And another thing, them boys stayed here after twelve.” “Yes, I remember that. Tell me one thing, just how little does one have to do for you not to watch their every move?” He was definitely muffed at this and at this point his son-in-law spoke his first words. “Well, what do you expect him to do? His bedroom window is right over there and he can hear every word you say.” At this point I knew the eviction was the best thing that could have happened to us. On bidding them goodbye I told them that we'd be out as soon as we found a proper place to live. I did fail to thank them for not giving us the proper thirty Right: Wendell Humphries, who ran for vice- president of the Central Campus Executive Council in the Spring of 1980, is one of many ECU students who involve themselves in stu- dent government. nace ST PEI AREER INOS BOI BTL ET GP LILLIE TORE ITE “aR days written notice, however. I went to wake my roommate with the good news. I hadn’t disturbed her before because I knew she’d have probably jumped the old man and wrestled him to the ground until he said uncle and let us stay. We decided not to worry about it at that moment and both went back to sleep. Again, the search began. “Hello, I’m calling about the trailer you advertised in the paper. Oh, that sounds nice. Now, just where in respect to the university is it located? Ayden, well, thank you but I think that’s a bit too far for our needs.” “Hello, I’m calling about the trailer you advertised in the paper. My room- mate and I nee — oh, you only rent to married couples, well, thank you very much.” “Hello, I’m calling about the 2-bed- room trailer you had advertised — oh, it’s already rented. Thank you.” Click. Somehow I had remembered going through all that once before. Moving again meant more deposits, more bills and more hook-up charges. There were times we wondered whether we could make it through those hard times. But we had no choice, we had to make it. I guess all works out for the best for we finally found another place and on June 1, we moved again.

Since groups go on tour usually to promote record sales, they perform in the larger, more influencial areas. There just isn’t any profit in performing to 4000 college students in a mid-sized town. The Student Union tried to book at least one professional, big-name _perfor- mance each semester. This year Amer- ica, Mothers Finest, Nantucket and Toto were the major concert attrac- tions. For the day tickets went on sale the America concert showed signs of fi- nancial trouble. Only about 600 tick- ets had been sold on the day of the concert and according to Charles Suné, chairperson of the Major At- traction Committee, 3500 tickets needed to be sold to break even. “There is a real possibility that if this concert fails, there will be no more concerts this year,” said Suné. The Student Union lost approximately $12,000 on the America concert. An estimated 2200 people attended, of that number 1500 were ECU students. After the financial disaster of the America concert, the Major Attrac- tions Committee decided to schedule Mothers Finest in a return engage- ment to ECU — this time with a local favorite, Nantucket. Mothers Finest and Nantucket performed to a capac- ity crowd December 2 in Minges Coli- seum. The Student Union made a net profit of $5000 and according to Karen McLawhorn, Student Union Presi- dent, “this was a very good profit for a concert at ECU.” The crowd of 5000-plus was ready to be rocked into oblivion when Mothers Finest opened the show and they weren't disappointed. MF blew everyone out with their high-energy tunes and a dynamic stage presence led by lead singer Joyce Kennedy.

The first, named David, was a Cape Verde hurricane, the most lethal of late sum- mer storms and one of the strongest this century. In its 3,000 mile trek, David wrecked havoc on the Caribbe- an islands of Dominica, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico. It was Hispaniola, which comprises the nations of Haiti and the Domini- can Republic, that suffered the most damage. Four hundred people were killed in Haiti when floodwaters of the Yaque River swept them away, and at least 600 more died in the Dominican Republic. David was packing 90 mph winds when it passed over the eastern tip of Cuba and struck the Florida coast. Three hundred thousand Floridians Student Life were evacuated to higher ground as the storm approached. Four hours be- fore David was to hit Florida’s Gold Coast, it changed course, sparing Mi- ami and the Keys. David swung back to hit land north of Palm Beach and again in Georgia, and it swept through the historic cities of Savan- nah and Charleston. David’s accom- panying rains flooded several Eastern cities, interrupted rail traffic and caused major power failures. In its wake, David left property damages of over $1 billion and a death toll of 1,100. Two weeks later, hurricane Freder- ick forced a half a million people to flee a 100-mile stretch of the coast from Gulfport, Mississippi, to Pensa- cola, Florida. Worst hit was Mobile, Alabama. For four hours Frederick pummeled the city with winds of 130 mph and tides 12 feet above normal. The hurri- cane swept a freighter onto a pier in Mobile Bay, blew a DC-3 half a mile from its hanger, and carried away most of the eight-mile causeway from the mainland to the resort of Dauphin Island. The death toll was low because of the prompt evacuation: only nine peo- ple died. Frederick caused over $1 bil- lion in property damages in the Mo- bile area alone. It also destroyed Ala- bama’s pecan crop and knocked out electric power for a week in the south- west part of the state. As the sun came out the next morn- ing, so did looters. Alabama Governor Fob James ordered out the National Guard and set a dusk-to-dawn curfew. County commissioner Bay Haas said of the hurricane’s aftermath, “We just can’t believe what we are seeing. The whole thing is incredible.” ‘igen, sma pean men wma ite witty hl tt OE Wide World Series Upset Wide World Leading three games to one with two of the possible three remaining games to be played at their home, the Baltimore Orioles managed to lose three in a row to a Pittsburgh Pirates team that came dramatically back to life after a bumbling start in the 1979 World Series. For the first time in the Series’ his- tory a game was postponed, as rain and low temperatures forced the delay of the opener in Baltimore. The game saw the Orioles jump to a 5-0 lead in the first inning, which was enough to stave off the Pirates, 5-4. A 2-2 stalemate in game 2 was broken in the ninth inning ona single by Pirate Manny Sanguillen that scored Ed Ott. The series was tied at 1- 1 as the site switched to Pittsburgh. The next two games produced de- moralizing 8-4 and 9-6 losses for the Pirates. Game 4 was capped by a home run by Oriole pitcher Tim Stoddard, who, because of the American League’s designated hitter, had never before swung a bat in the major leagues. Down 3 games to 1 at the beginning of game 5, the Pirates ended their 3- game home series with a 7-1 victory over Baltimore. Pittsburgh manager Chuck Tanner guided his team to the win despite the death that morning of his mother, Anne. Game 6, in Baltimore, saw yet an- other victory for Pittsburgh, this time a 4-0 win which tied the series at 3. A two run homer by Pirate Willie Star- gell in the sixth inning of game 7 end- ed the series for all practical purposes. Pittsburgh added 2 more runs in the ninth to insure their 4-1 win and 4-3 series victory. Pittsburgh’s Willie Stargell received the Series’ Most Valuable Player award after setting a series record for extra-base hits. The Pirates batting average of .323 was another series re- cord, and it topped Baltimore’s by al- most 100 percentage points. It was the Pirate’s ability to hang loose when the situation got desperate that enabled them to become only the fourth team to win the series after losing three of the first four games.

The tragedy that was taking place in what was once one of Southeast Asia’s more peaceful and prosperous nations was highlighted by the sight of famished Cambodian refugees trudging wearily across the border to the precarious safety of refugee camps in Thailand. Battered by war, famine and disease, the refugees faces reflected the plight of a country that has become the Auschwitz of Asia. Three US Senators — James Sasser of Tennessee, Max Baucus of Mon- tana and John Danforth of Missouri — visited the country in the last week of October. They were the first US officials to visit Cambodia since the fall of the Lon Nol government in 1975. Cambodian officials reluctantly admitted to the Senators that “people were going hungry.” But that was a gross understate- ment. “We saw people in a makeshift hospital, lying under plastic sheets held up by poles,” said Sasser at a news conference upon returning home. “The living, the dying and the dead were all together. The only noise to be heard was the cough of children with tuberculosis. There were emaci- ated people in the final stages of mal- nutrition.” The four-year regime of Pol Pot saw perhaps half the country’s population of 8 million people die as a result of war, disease, and starvation. The genocide continued after Vietnam in- stalled Heng Samrin as the country’s new leader in September, 1978. Because rice fields had not been planted and many crops were de- stroyed during the war, Cambodia’s food reserves had fallen grossly inad- equate. An estimated 2.25 million peo- ple were without any food and faced immediate death from starvation. The Cambodian government rigid- ly refused to allow the importation of emergency food and medical supplies, Permitting only a daily airlift of sup- plies into Phnom Penh and an occa- sional shipload into the port of Kom- Left: A young Cambodian mother holds her baby in her arms as she waits in a line outside one of the hospitals at this Cambodian refugee camp.

It refused to allow trucks to arrive from Thailand because of fears the vehicles would be hijacked by Pol Pot’s remaining forces and used against the government. The three senators had gone to Phnom Penh to convince the regime to allow such shipments to avoid the starvation of more people. The idea was rejected by the People’s Revolu- tionary Council on grounds that those who were starving could not actively resist the new government. Bizarre Plot Claims Park In one of the most bizarre killings of a chief of state in history, South Korean president Park Chung Hee was shot at a dinner party by the chief of his own intelligence service in Oc- tober. According to the official account, Park was attending a party given by Korean CIA Chief Kim Jae Kyu, who was known as “a close, long-term chum and advisor in whom Park had a lot of confidence.” A fierce argument erupted between Kim and Cha Chi Chul, another of Park’s advisors. Kim then shot Cha and Park with a .38 revolver while several KCIA agents gunned down Park’s bodyguards. Kim later drove to army headquar- ters and surrendered. The reasons for the assassination were not clear, but speculation was that the growing power struggle between Kim and Cha coupled with a lessening of confi- dence in Park as a ruler brought about the movie. The immediate worry after the as- sassination was a possible attack by North Korea. All US forces in South Korea were put on alert and martial law was declared. US diplomats urged the Soviet Union and China to re- strain North Korea from interfering. The tense but orderly aftermath to Park’s death presented a solid front against any North Korean attempt for adventure. The main US worry was over who would eventually succeed Park and what the new president would stand for. Shootout In Greensboro Greensboro, North Carolina, a city with a history of racial conflict dating back to sit-ins at lunch counters in the early 1960's and a riot in 1969 at a local college that left one student dead, was again hit by racial violence on No- vember 3. Nothing in Greensboro’s past came close to the shootout be- tween Ku Klux Klan members and anti-Klan protesters in which four people were killed and nine wounded. The city’s mayor, Jim Melvin, called it “one of the most hideous acts in America.” The tragedy came after months of stepped-up activity in central North Carolina by the Klan. The organiza- tion had been previously challenged by a dogmatic Maoist group, the Workers Viewpoint Organization, which has perhaps a dozen or so members in the Greensboro area. Viewpoint members passed out handbills in October inviting people to a “Death to the Klan” protest march on Saturday, November 3, in a predominantly black section of the city. The pamphlets described the Klan as “the most treacherous scum element produced by the dying sys- tem of capitalism.” About 100 blacks and whites gath- ered on the sunny morning for the march. Suddenly, a mustard-colored van and several cars pulled up. They were filled with Klansmen and sup- porters who shouted racial slurs and then leaped out and started firing pis- tols. According to a witness, “One guy laid across the back end of the car and blew the side of a guy’s head off.” A woman, her face caked with blood, told how a woman had died in her arms. The shooting went on for about four minutes before riot police with shotguns cleared the streets. “We moved in as soon as we could,” said police Chief William Swing in re- sponse to mounting criticism. All of the dead were anti-Klansmen demonstrators. Two Klansmen and eight demonstrators were wounded. Police arrested 12 Klansmen and charged them with murder. The police and the citizens of Greensboro then prepared for a week- end of tension and soul searching in the aftermath of the tragedy. 59 Newsline 60 IF = aa a AN TR = eS Sa ILENE ERIM AM STINE perce VARESE UO ERE i ge TR ARTO LTAEG BNL IRIN LI ae LTE A ERE Bp SEF RETREAT IN INO EBON TOLLE NTE BLO LEE LICE IER.

Hostage Crisis Tests American Will The November 4 seizure of the US Embassy in Teheran by militant Iran- ian students and the subsequent hold- ing of it and 50 American hostages touched off an international diplo- matic crisis that was to plague the United States beyond the end of the school year in May. The militant students seized the embassy and two abandoned US con- sular offices to demand that the Unit- ed States return Iran’s exiled Shah to face “revolutionary justice.” Americans reacted with a wave of anger against a foreign country that was almost without precedent. In cities across the US there were fights as Iranian students marched in sup- port of Iran’s apparent leader, Ayatol- lah Ruhollah Khomeini. American workers refused to unload Iranian ships or service Iranian airliners. Vio- lent clashes occurred in Beverly Hills, where vengeful Americans jeered “Deport, deport!,” and beat Iranians staging anti-Shah demonstrations, In Washington thousands of bystanders taunted 900 Iranians marching near the White House. In Greenville, a group of about 200 ECU students marched from downtown to College Hill to protest the embassy seizure. President Carter responded by con- demning the takeover as “an act of terrorism totally outside the bounds of international law and diplomatic tradition. The Iranian government and its leaders will be held account- able,” he warned. Carter acted swiftly to freeze $6.5 billion in Iranian finan- cial assets deposited in US banks, and he announced a ban on US imports of Iranian oil. He further ordered a crackdown on Iranian students in the US who had overstayed their visas. The Shah, who lay ill in a New York hospital, offered to leave the United States, a move that was reject- ed both by his doctors and the State Department. World reaction was as expected. Di- plomats throughout the world were outraged by Iran’s gross violation of the most fundamental protocol among nations — the sanctity of diplomatic missions. “It’s a deplorable situation with disastrous implications for Iran's future diplomatic relations,” said a Western diplomat. The United Na- tions reacted by passing an unani- mous resolution condemning the takeover and demanding the uncondi- Student Life tional release of the hostages. But in one part of the world, reac- tion was unexpectedly negative. The takeover sparked attacks by Moslem extremists on US installations throughout the Arab world, as embas- sies and consular offices were at- tacked and destroyed in Turkey, Paki- stan, India and Bangladesh. The at- tack in Pakistan left one American soldier dead and the heretofore-be- lieved impenetrable US embassy com- pound in Islamabad in ruins. In Iran, the seizure prompted the resignation of the government of Prime Minister Medhi Bazargan, and the transfer of all authority to the Ayatollah’s Revolutionary Council. The takeover prompted pro-Kho- meini demonstrations in front of the embassy for weeks as millions of Iranians marched in favor of the sei- zure, shouting anti-American slogans. Thanksgiving came, and with it the first positive development in the cri- sis. Thirteen of the hostages — five women and eight black men — were released after three weeks of captivity. They were set free on orders from Khomeini, who professed respect for women and sympathy for blacks who had been oppressed’ in America. The release of these hostages was followed by renewed threats to try the remain- ing captives as spies. In mid-December, the ailing Shah left the United States for Panama, and US officials speculated that his depar- ture might have a positive effect on the crisis situation. But Christmas Day came, and the hostages were still being held. Several American clergy- men were invited to Teheran to con- duct worship services for the hos- tages. Christmas cards totalling 151,000 a day swamped the embassy. The mail was eventually stopped by the Iranians, who claimed there was too much for them to handle. After New Years’, the hostages were again visited by three American clergymen. The Iranians had intended the visit to allay fears of any possible mistreatment of the hostages. But in- stead, the trip produced serious ques- tions as to the actual number of hos- tages being held. The clergymen were able to see only 41 captives, while the US State Department insisted that the Iranians were holding 50 people. As the questions mounted, Iranian responses became increasingly vague. One student spokesman claimed that “we have never announced the num- ber of hostages that we hold.” An- other claimed there were 50 people be- ing held while still another set the number at 49. Secretary of State Cyrus Vance referred to the situation as “a very cruel numbers game” as the State Department maintained its count of 50 — 28 people documented with the Iranian government as diplomats, 20 non-diplomatic staff members and two private citizens. As the clergymen left Iran, the Rev- olutionary Council considered drop- ping its plan to have an international grand jury investigate alleged US crimes in Iran during the reign of the Shah. The first week in February provided the most dramatic development in the situation up to that time. Six Ameri- can diplomats who had been hiding in the Canadian Embassy since Novem- ber 8 were smuggled out of the coun- try. The escape delighted the Ameri- cans, prided the Canadians, and out- raged the Iranians. The plot involved ClIA-doctored documents and bold “rehearsals” in Teheran on how to slip the Americans past the Iranian customs officials. For several weeks prior to the es- cape, Canadian ambassador Ken Tay- lor sent members of his embassy staff out of Iran on unnecessary flights to establish a travel pattern and to study Iranian clearance procedures. The Americans were issued Canadian passports which were stamped with ClA-fabricated Iranian visa stamps. Once the embassy staff was reduced to four, the six Americans and four Canadians slipped through customs and boarded regularly scheduled flights to West Germany and the Canadian embassy was closed. In Teheran, the Iranian reaction was expectedly ironic. “This is illegal, it’s illegal,” raged one of the militants holding the US hostages. Foreign Minister Sadegh Ghotbzadeh vowed that “sooner or later, somewhere in the world, Canada will pay.” Right: Kathy Gross was one of the 13 Ameri- cans released by the Iranians after being held for three weeks.

The election and installation a week later of Abolhassan Bani-Sadr to Iran’s presidency sparked hopes that the end of the crisis was near. Bani- Sadr, who was viewed as a moderate, took charge of the Revolutionary Council and denounced the militant students holding the Americans as “lawless dictators.” His first act was to call for a UN delegation of inquiry to hear Iran’s grievances against the Shah and the US. The Americans supported the idea of a commission on the assumption that when its work was finished the American hostages would be set free. But after the commission — made up of envoys from Venezuela, Algeria, Syria, Sri Lanka and France — spent a week interviewing victims of torture under the Shah and hearing other grievances, the Iranians announced that its work was in no way tied to the release of the hostages. The commis- sion returned home after being re- fused permission to see the hostages. The students then offered to transfer the hostages to control of the govern- ment, but Ayatollah Khomeini de- clared that the matter would not be settled until after Iran’s new parlia- ment took office in June. Members of the commission refused to publish their findings until after the hostages were released.

I have used my activity card to get a reduced rate for something once, but I don’t go to the movies or bowling or what- ever.” Both women admit that they aren't just seeking a degree that they can hang on the wall. Gail believes she could get a job without a Psychology degree but she wants the additional education. “The older you get the more you can appreciate the need for an adequate education,” she said. Ac- cording to Joan, her major in Ac- counting is a marketable skill. “My long range plans do include a job, but for now my daughter is still a little bit too young to be in a position where Mother works 40 hours a week. There are a lot of things that I would like to do with her that her brother has had the advantage of having done with me, so a job on the immediate horizon is out of the question.” Gail and Joan both felt that their adjustment to school was made easier by having been readily accepted by other students. According to Gail, SS — “They don’t treat me like an older per- son, they accept me as the individual that I am, and that’s how I want to be treated.” Joan continued, “age is a state of mind anyhow. The younger people that I’ve come in contact with seem to be very tolerant of me.” Joan feels that there is a major dif- ference in her attitude toward grades compared to that of the average stu- dent. “I think you will find that most returning students worry a lot about their grades. They are not satisfied with just passing courses, they have to get good grades. For me, it’s sort of pressurized. Some people don’t worry about making A’s or B’s. When you do worry about grades it only adds to all the other things that you need to contend with. That’s one major differ- ence between returning students and 19-year old students.” Some people understand the strug- gle a mother has in coming to school and some do not. Gail doesn’t want to feel anyone owes her any special treat- ment. Although several of her family and friends could not understand her quitting a job to come back to school and questioned her motives in doing so, Gail admits, “I guess that’s only fair. 1 chose to come back to school. I knew it was all up to me.” “I think you will find that most returning students worry a lot about their grades. They are not satisfied with just pass- ing courses, they have to get good grades ...

The ground floor is the Recreation Center which houses a bowling alley, billiard and ping-pong tables, elec- tronic games, tables for chess, check- ers and backgammon, a TV room, a crafts center and the Coffeehouse. A snack bar, a student bank, the Central Ticket Office, several lounges, the information center, and 800-seat Hendrix Theatre occupy the main floor. The Central Ticket Office sells tickets to major attractions to both students and the public. Mendenhall’s switchboard is operated at the infor- mation center which also maintains a campus directory. Hendrix Theatre offers travel and adventure films, in- ternational films, pop movies, all on a regular basis. The second floor contains the ad- ministrative offices of the student center, SGA offices and Student Union offices. Several meeting rooms and the Music Listening Center are also located on that floor. When the building opened in 1974 it was named for Cynthia Menden- hall, who served for many years as director of the University Union. That position is now filled by Rudolph Alexander, Associate Dean for Stu- dent Activities. Alexander would like to see Men- denhall further fulfill the students’ needs in the eighties. Like most new buildings, Mendenhall was obsolete in some areas the day it was complet- ed. The Student Center needs to be enlarged to contain more mid-sized meeting rooms which will accomodate 15 to 30 people. Alexander would like for student organizations to take on a more streamlined approach by having all of the offices located in Menden- hall. “Too often,” said Alexander, “a student can’t get something accom- plished because he simply doesn’t know where to go.” Plans for Mendenhall’s future in- clude the addition of a main campus cafeteria, a large ballroom for ban- quets and dances, and the possibility of enlarging Hendrix Theatre to one thousand seats. “Mendenhall must keep growing as we as a university keep growing,” concluded Alexander.

But there were several events that made temporary head- lines and created short-lived controversies in PITT COUNTY The opening of a new mall, a fire at one theatre and a demonstration at an- other, and a collard eating contest all made headlines in Pitt County during the year. It was a year when no great controversy divided the community for a lengthy time, but several smaller news events made their mark on the local scene. A fast paced year of construction and preparation culminated in August 1979 with the grand opening of the new $16 million Carolina East Mall, a 64-store regional shopping complex. Grand opening ceremonies took place at the facility’s main entrance as a sizeable gathering rushed into the new complex after Vern Davenport, a kicker with the ECU football squad, booted a football over simulated goal posts onto the mall roof. Mayor Percy Cox welcomed the mall personnel to Greenville and said that the opening represented “probably one of the greatest events Greenville has seen.” Greenville was approached three years ago by the Ernest W. Hahn Company regarding the possible re- zoning and annexation of the 37-acre mall site. Mayor Cox congratulated the company on the successful com- pletion of the three year project. Members of the ECU football team and the cheerleaders led the rush through the goal posts as most visi- tors received their first look at the in- terior of the new complex. Of the 64 businesses slated for a mall occupan- cy, approximately 40 were ready for customers at the grand opening. A fire on August 12 completely de- stroyed the Pitt Theatre in downtown Greenville.

Firemen were called to the scene at 11:09 p.m. by manager Chuck Cald- well, who discovered the fire in a stor- age area on the second floor balcony beneath the projection booth. Caldwell cut the projector off, turned on the house lights and asked customers to leave the theatre through the fire exit doors on the north side of the auditorium. After the fire, Cald- well said, “the crowd was very cooper- ative. There was no panic.” Greenville Fire Chief Jenness Allen stated that the blaze apparently start- ed from faulty wiring in the second floor storage area, then spread to the projection booth and roof. Chief Allen said that at the height of the fire some 50 firefighters were working at the site. In addition to the extensive fire and water damage to the theatre, some wa- ter and smoke damage resulted to the Belk-Tyler building located behind the theatre. Water damage was also reported at the Hooker and Buchanan Insurance Company beside the cine- ma. The fifth annual Ayden Collard Festival was held September 6-9.

During the first days of the strike leaders of the Communications Workers of America local union indi- cated they would not return to the bargaining table unless a cost-of-liv- ing clause was included in the con- tract. The union had asked for the clause in the past but had not received it. The previous strike lasted a month and ended without the inclusion of the clause in the contract. Elaine Curry, a service assistant with CT & T and the group vice president of traffic opera- tors in the union, said the strikers were prepared to stay out until an agreement was made with a cost-of- living clause. According to Ms. Curry, CT & T was the only telephone utility that did not have the allowance in its labor contracts. Delbert Gordon, union bar- gaining chief, said the union believed if they could obtain the cost-of-living clause, the other issues would be easi- ly ironed out. CT & T was adamant in its refusal to consider the adjustment. “It is un- wise fundamentally,” said CT & T vice president T.P.

Terry added that there was no cost- of-living provision in the proposal but that it did provide for increased benefits for CT & T employees. Union officials indicated they would accept the agreement without the cost-of-living clause providing that all the striking workers got their jobs back.

Jones, a Methodist layman, stated, “If you can see or know what's in a can of garbage then what's the point of looking down in there?” Jim Nason of Parkers Chapel Free Will Baptist Church added, “Jesus Christ is God himself, and when we see this kind of mockery made of the life of Christ we felt this was the final straw.” Bob Clyde of the Baptist Student Center said, “I felt like the film was more of a charicature of the ways peo- ple misrepresent Christ. It was like a commentary on the ways people are easily misled.” Clyde also felt Life of Brian was sacreligious and offensive, but that “there was also a great lesson to be learned from the film in terms of misrepresentation.” Alex White said, “Most of the peo- PITT COUNTY ... ple who were picketing hadn’t even seen the picture and were voicing a judgmental opinion about it.” The Life of Brian continued to show at the theater as movie goers crossed the picket lines to see the film despite the efforts of the religious group.

Px ECU students have a Snow ball In the warmer days of spring, summer, and fall, it’s rather easy for all thoughts of cold and snow to be chased out of the mind. But with the first chill nip in the air, the hearts of young men and women turn to thoughts of snow. Before you find yourself thinking about the thrill- ing prospect of seeing the normally brown grass coated with a sweet dusting of white, just remember February of 1980. Anyone seriously recollecting the span between Janu- ary 30 and March 2 will probably reconsider his jubila- tion of seeing snowflakes wafting down upon the unfor- tunately receptive earth. In fact, it may be years before the sight of snow doesn’t fill the asylums with babbling lunatics. From the beginning of spring semester ’80, people car- ried on hushed conversations — anticipations of the cer- tain coming of snow. Every time clouds approached, peo- ple announced in clear, proud voices that this time it was going to snow. Everyone was an authority. The almanac said this is the day, the grass is lying down, the pine trees aren't dropping cones, but, whatever the reason, January defied the experts. The Almighty, in His infinite wisdom, decided that the temperature would be 38 degrees every time the clouds began to precipitate. So, instead of skipping merrily through the snow, students were forced to trudge to class, being splattered by the chilled rain blown under their umbrellas by whipping winds. Snow had to be better than that. But we can’t always have the most miserable condi- tions on earth. Twelve thousand people have some clout somewhere, and, as though by sheer power of will, snow was finally pulled from those unwilling clouds. Finally, we could safely predict snow. The conditions were perfect — 28 degrees and those wonderful, heavy clouds just waiting for the proper spot to conduct their miraculous functions in the precipitation cycle we learned about in the fourth grade. The only thing that will cause people to gather around an open window faster than a dead skunk in the room is the exhultation, “Hey look, it’s snowing!” Only the most callous, morose, and insufferable among us don’t rush to the nearest glass portal when the word snow is uttered. (In fact, McCarthy used this as a test of communism, for no one but a commie would ignore snow). Sure enough, it was snowing. Snow has a way of driv- ing the petty problems of the world right out of mind. Is nuclear energy safe? Who cares, it’s snowing! What about the Summer Olympics? So, Moscow has no snow in July. Even the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan is cow chips when it’s snowing. Most of all, you can’t study when it’s snowing. Above: The first snow of 1980 proved to be a nice change from the freezing rains that the university encountered during the month of January. Left: While many students used the light snowfalls as an excuse to cut classes, the majority managed to struggle through the slush and arrive on time. Center: A prank call to the local radio stations prompted Chancellor Brewer to set up a special coding system with area media to properly inform students of class cancellations. Right: The final blizzard that dumped 2 feet of snow on Greenville left most students stranded at the dorms with little to do. The guys up on College Hill Drive weren’t studying anyway, so the snow only interupted their multi-decibel investigation of Led Zeppelin and/or their inhalation of illegal hallucinogens. But the romantic thoughts snow conjures for poets are lost on the men of the hill. Snow is an excellent method of conveying one’s deep-seated frus- trations onto the face (at high speed) of another. Why did God invent snow, if not for snowball fights? You can’t smoke snow, snorting it is also out of the question, and you can’t get sexual gratification from it either, unless you are very sick. Snow must be for throw- ing at the unsuspecting, the innocent, and the enemy. And with snow on the ground, everyone is the enemy. Nearly in unison, the male population of ECU broke out of their dormitories and into the snow with the gusto of a horney sailor. The battle lines were quickly drawn — man vs. inanimate objects and man vs. man. Both of these were soon overshadowed by a conflict which had its roots dating back eons — a struggle between primal beasts. Jones vs. Aycock, the King Kong-Godzilla movie set in eastern North Carolina, was not merely 500 males attempting to prove their superiority by annihilating 500 other males, it was a subconscious battle over territorial rights. The victors would be the undisputed masters of the worst dormitory on campus. Like mongol hordes eager for plunder, each of the combatants savagely at- tacked their adversary’s building. One obligatory activity in any riot is vandalism. True to form, the crowd assaulted windows, doors, trees, light poles, basketball goals, and cars — mostly cars. Anyone without the foresight to move their car to a safer haven (Chocowinity, perhaps) saw this mistake well exploited. It’s amazing how much damage a well-packed snowball propelled at high velocity can perpetrate upon metal and glass, as one unfortunate member of Greenville’s finest discovered. Congratulations must be extended to the quick-thinking individuals who pushed an unsuspecting van down College Hill Drive — it makes a body proud to know that these people will be the leaders of North Carolina in 10 years. But even committing acts of ram- pant hooliganism gets boring, and the rioting slowly dried up and disappeared. Not the snow, however. Rem- nants of the storm clung tenaciously to little patches of the campus for a week. Mother nature, a rather humorless little goddess bear- ing a striking resemblance to Richard Nixon, decided that, since we had enjoyed the first snow of 1980 so much, she would see about leaving us another sample of her handiwork. She failed to recognize that the timing of the snow is correlated to the enjoyment of it. In short, she screwed up. The snow started just in time to lightly dust the shoul- ders of students and teachers with 8:00 classes. By 10:00 an inch of snow had fallen and at noon there was nearly three. This was a genuine mid-western snow, the kind with two-inch snowflakes that look and feel like God is cleaning his ice-maker. But it was not destined to last, the snow stopped and, during the afternoon, the skies cleared. 102 = ainemadne =~ a a ————— RON POLLO ELLIE OL A LAGOS RARE aa Dae et 9 TL SER, = AR SIO HDD {AIO MOL Ip eT EERE AMIOE c8 ELGOL AEP OS LIAL a ee IE IE ETE TON ie sas a PP AGT OITE : 3 serie aiiiaiionead ie a ee ee eT — Werner ae Aone +48 a GT pores: STATS RRP Da ae ae ee SINE DRA ESOL ELT PETES EP escort ia emcees << Re RET Snowball Due mainly to the fact that they had classes to attend, | students largely ignored the snow and resisted the temp- tation to incapacitate any vehicles. There was hardly a snowball to be seen. This snow was for the art students — snow sculpting on the east side of the campus was the order of the day. However, it was some creative souls on the hill who made the most lasting impression. Between the tennis courts and Tyler Dorm, these miscreants erect- ed a 9-foot phallus — which, for the non-psych majors, symbolized the male dominance of the hill. Unfortunate- ly (or perhaps fortunately), the male hardware was short- lived, for the afternoon sun left the cam- pus snowless. All of this was leading to winter’s Little Bighorn — a final stunning victory over spring. Mother nature even telegraphed her punch, which % naturally led the weathermen pre- dicting snow, and thus to every- one being caught unprepared or out of town. When it comes to last hurrahs, winter doesn’t play for funsies. Snow up to four inches is tolerable but after that it becomes a discom- fort. On that basis, the year’s final snow was a genuine, pull-out-the-flag, full-blown, write-home-and-tell-mama pain in the ass. God, it would seem, was fairly dis- pleased with eastern North Carolina. Drag out the ark, Noah, we’re gonna be drowned! When people arose Saturday, March 1, they found yet another cover of white upon the earth. And snow was still coming down. The precipitation intensified and the news reports told their dismal stories. Driving conditions went from bad to worse to hazardous to dangerous to futile to fatal and there was no end in sight. There was a total of eight inches by midnight. Sunday was worse. The snowstorm became a blizzard, blowing snow into four-foot drifts. The 40 mph winds made walking almost impossible. Driving was dangerous and rather foolhardy. But the conditions did prevent the recreational vandalism which accompanied the other snows. Even the announcement that classes were can- celled could not incite a disturbance of the peace. The magical allure of snow had clearly worn out its welcome. Everyone has a few good memories of the Monday and Tuesday which followed. Not having classes has a way of improving one’s outlook. Still, the snow was generally viewed with derision — “I’m dreaming of a white St. Patrick’s Day,” went one jingle. The boredom of being held captive in the dorms and the nuisance of dragging a car, with tires spinning out of control lessened the excite- ment of having a couple of days off. Spring eventually arrived, it always had before, and with it came the secure feeling that being held captive by two feet of snow was no longer a possibility.

This prompted the Buccaneer to interview Chancellor Thomas Brewer about his policy on cancelling classes. Buc: Why were classes held, even though the highway patrol deemed driving conditions hazardous? Brewer: “In the first place we have 5,500 students on the campus, there is no reason why they can’t get to class. All they have to do is walk to class the same way they do any other day. And then we have another 5,000 or so students who live in and around Greenville. Although you have to drive a little differently in snow, Greenville is fairly flat. You are not faced with big hills or the kind of things you are if you lived in the Piedmont or the mountains. I would say our faculty have a bigger problem getting to class than our students do, because we have faculty living in Washington and Winterville. We have some students who do commute, but basically when we have so many students within easy access of the classroom then we should stay open as much as we can. As I said, the big problem is for the faculty to get to class and not the student. | think any student just has to make a decision for him-or herself whether it’s safe to come. Because, what I think we would do in the future if it did close, it would have to be made up. We just are not going to lose a day. So, if the students want to take a couple of days off of spring break, if they want to go on Saturdays, but what do you do with students who have Saturday jobs? Are you going to tell them that they have to miss class because they have a Saturday job? We are not shortening the semes- ter any more than it has already been shortened. If you stop and think about it, you only go to school twenty-nine weeks out of the year, out of fifty-two. And the semester has been shortened over the last ten or fifteen years, by about a week. This is nationwide, not just here. So, I do not think we are inclined to shorten it up any more.” : Buc: How do you feel about the violence — the destruction done by the students during this snow period? How do you feel personally about students of college-age doing some- thing of this nature? Brewer: Well, naturally it is unfortunate that students can’t show any more maturity than that. I realize that you get carried away with the first snowfall of the year and that type of thing, but certainly none of that justifies destruction. It does show a lack of maturity on their part and it is unbe- coming to the university. More, I think, it is unbecoming to them.” Buc: Are there proper arrangements made for the clearing of the sidewalks when it snows? Brewer: “I don’t know. Mr. (Vice Chancellor for Business) Moore might be the one to ask about that. I know that we probably do not have the type of snow removal equipment that we would have to do it all as quickly as possible. I think that they work at it over time, a little bit at a time, rather than get it all done by the time the first class starts after a night snowfall.” Buc: Do you have any reports of any accidents during the first few snowfalls this year? Is there anyone bringing suit against the university for any accident they may have had while coming to class during the snowstorms? Brewer: “No.” Buc: So, basically everyone did make it to class safely? Brewer: “Or didn’t come. But that is their choice. I think professors are generally lenient about kids who don’t come or can’t come, if they have an excuse. Now, if I had a kid in my class that didn’t come and I knew he lived in the dorms, there would be no mercy. But if you commuted from Kin- ston or something like that, then that would be an extenuat- ing circumstance.” Buc: 1 know that one day I didn’t attend class after hearing a broadcast stating that classes were cancelled. How can stu- dents be sure they receive accurate information about the closing of classes? Brewer: “That has been corrected. That was a hoax call. All media now only respond to a certain code which we have established with them. And they will only respond to that code.” This interview was held on February 25 — before the 22- inch snowfall of March 1 which forced the closing of the university for the first time in 25 years. 103 Snow 104 sete AEN eT IFN OPEREEN A ~ ea ag LTS gg SIL ERT ETNA Np ELIE LI IIL LIT EL NE IEE ace AE INR TE LD, ROLLE BEN EIN ELI IE BINGE RAE LLG LIL APIS IE OME III nao spon ERR gh ATES RAR Ra LN TAN TT At OT NIL I AT ale SOLAR TE With many years of service to ECU students, the Student Health Service rates A POSITIVE DIAGNOSIS any students only see the Stu- dent Health Service once or twice a year and know no more about it than that. A few of us never get sick, and never go there, and a few of us visit regularly. Student Health Service opened its doors in 1930 serving a student body of 1200 students, mostly young wom- en training to be teachers. As the col- lege grew and developed into a univer- sity, the Student Health Service kept pace. In those early days, Dr. Fred Brooks headed a staff of two nurses who worked and actually lived in the building offering 24 hour medical coverage. Dr. Fred Irons became Medical Director in 1947 and has, with singular dedication, directed its growth during the past thirty years. During this period of time, he has been assisted in caring for the college population by many Greenville phy- sicians, namely Drs. Charles Adams, Jack Waters, Malene Irons, David Moore, Walter Pott, Jack Wilkerson, Harriet Wooten, Bill Fore, Donald Tucker, and Al Woodworth. By 1967, East Carolina College had grown to a student body of 9,000 and had officially become a university. In the same year, Dr. Irons left his pri- vate practice with the Medical Arts Clinic and became the first full-time Director of the Student Health Ser- vice. Dr. Dan Jordan assumed the du- ties of Assistant Medical Director in 1969. The staff of physicians was rounded out with the addition of Dr. Harry McLean in 1972 and Dr. Judith Yongue in 1974. The physician staff was reduced to 4 when Dr. Yongue resigned in 1979. Mrs. Jolene Jerni- gan, Family Nurse Practitioner, joined the staff in 1978, and Mrs. Della Rouse, FNP, joined the staff in 1979. The Health Service’s renovated building has eight treatment rooms, 39 in-patient and nine out-patient beds, a well-equipped laboratory and a small pharmacy. With their present staff of five physicians, two physician assistants, a consulting psychiatrist, one administrator, 14 nurses, three laboratory technologists, a part-time Student Life pharmacist, and supporting clerical staff, the Student Health Service of- fers a wide variety of services to the present student body. Many students view them as their family physicians during their enrollment here. However, Dr. Irons said, “We feel there should be more to a Student Health Service than providing imme- diate care for acute medical illnesses and injuries. Our uniqueness as a health provider must come from be- ing a vital part of the educational set- ting in which we are located.” Increasingly, they see their role as a type of health maintenance organiza- tion employing preventive medicine and encouraging a student’s participa- tion in his own health care. To this end, they sponsor ongoing programs of health education using visual aids and small group discussions. Mem- bers of their staff act as resource per- sonnel for other university depart- ments which are directly responsible for health education. The Student Health Service staff performs annual physicals as required by the universi- ty on student teachers, nurses, and other students in the School of Allied Health. They cooperate with the De- partment of Sports Medicine and Dr. Bowman, the team physician, in the examination and medical care of the intercollegate athletes and with Dr. Wayne Edwards in the examination and care of the intramural athletes. Patient visits have increased from about 15,000 per year in 1957 to about 50,000 in recent years. About 98 per cent of the visits are handled entirely at the facility. For instance, in the month of September, 1979, there were approximately 6,000 patient visits re- corded with about 145 students being referred for outside medical care, pri- marily for x-ray diagnoses, dental care, or for medical or surgical consul- tation and/or hospital admission. Ap- proximately 4,000 laboratory proce- dures were performed during each month which encompassed hematolo- gy, microbiology, and drawing of blood chemistries. Annual gynecolo- gic exams including pap smears and cultures are done on asymptomatic fe- males in addition to the treatment of the usual office gynecologic problems. Approximately 100 physical examina- tions are done each month as required by the university for students partici- pating in a university related activity. Because of the new federal law which required the state to search out and assist handicapped students, the university now has approximately 100 such students enrolled this semes- ter. Among these are numbered the totally deaf or those with seriously impaired hearing, the partially or to- tally blind, and the quadriplegic or paraplegic confined to a wheelchair. Structural changes have been made in all buildings to accomodate these stu- dents. This is a much needed and ex- tremely rewarding program, and the Student Health Service plays a signifi- cant role in the continuing care of these students. In keeping with their goal of pro- moting a positive attitude for good health, one of their own nurses is now enrolled in the ECU Nurse Practition- er Program under the sponsorship of Dr. Harry McLean and Dr. Harriet Wooten. Mrs. Jernigan and Mrs. Rouse, the two staff FNP’s, help in routine patient care and in health edu- cational services. The Student Health Service appreci- ates the support they have always re- ceived from the Pitt County Memorial Hospital Staff, the medical school, and the area physicians in offering a com- prehensive health program for the East Carolina University students. Dr. Irons has decided to retire as director and work just as a physician. A screening committee has been set up by Dr. Meyer and they hope to identify a new director of the Student Health Service by the beginning of the 1980-81 school year. They will then have five full-time physicians again. Dr. Irons said, “One of the big- gest disappointments is that at times it has been difficult to meet the needs of the students because of the de- mands of changing circumstances. We are better now than we ever have been.” 2 pique see Meadow Pena ATOM TEMES RADI ee kt IM aR 1 Left: Approximately 4,000 laboratory proce- dures were performed each month for students ranging from hematology to drawing of blood chemistries.

Walking across that carpet in dress shoes might create static electric- ity, but the administrative staff working in that building is neither static nor electric. The current chancellor, Dr. Thomas Brewer, came to ECU in July of 1978. He was formerly associated with Texas Christian University where he served for a while as the Dean of Arts and Sciences and later as vice chancellor. Brewer received his B.A. and M.A. degrees at the University of Texas and his Ph. D. in American History at Texas Christian University. In consideration of the years ahead for East Carolina, Brewer has instituted a 130-person planning commission to * Chancellor Thomas Brewer really wear...

He stated inflation as the primary concern for East Carolina in the coming decade. “Inflation affects many levels of the univer- sity,” Brewer commented. “Top priorities among these are faculty and staff salaries, and physical facilities. Not only North Carolina, but all state governments are having trou- ble keeping up with inflation.” The total enrollment is expected to rise in quality and quantity in the next decade. Chancellor Brewer created two new vice chancellorships to help cope with that rising en- rollment — a vice chancellor for Institutional Advancement and Planning and a vice chancellor for Student Life.

Vice Chancellor Donald R. Lemish became the head of that de- partment in July of 1979. Before coming to East Carolina Lemish was the Vice President for Foundation and Develop- ment at Ball State University. Lemish’s primary responsibilities are to seek both short : and long term financial support for the university and to : oversee departmental management. According to Lemish, financial support comes in a wide range of forms. Specific on departments and projects often receive their own grants. Other financial programs include: bequests, charitable trusts, properties, securities, and account interest. ‘Federal and state funds are only a small part of the total financial support,” Lemish concluded. : g : d Assistant to the Chancellor Charles Blake se As Vice Chancellor for Student Life, Elmer E. Meyer su- vad pervises the areas of financial aid, housing, security, coun- lig seling, career planning, food, health, intramurals, and orien- oa tation. Before coming to East Carolina in July of 1979, Mey- oe er served as the Administration President at Carrol College. ily One of Meyer’s first tasks at ECU was to form a budget and be an administrative policy for his department. He also did something that had been unheard of at East Carolina by ui making it possible for faculty members to have keys for ass their respective buildings. es , In planning for the future at ECU, Meyer would like to at ® see better quality housing, better security services, and ex- £ panded health operations.

Besides holding this position, Prewett, who started his ECU career in 1952, maintained his professorship in the Psychology Department until his leave of absence during the spring semester of 1980. Along with the task of writing speeches for the Chancellor and being the university’s NCAA representative, Dr. Prewett was Chairman of the Athletic Committee. He, along with other board members, reviewed applications and chose Edward Emory as the suc- cessor to Head Football Coach Pat Dye. Prewett is expected to return from his temporary leave of absence for the fall semester of 1980. The Department of Business Affairs is headed by Vice Chancellor Clifton Moore. Moore came to ECU in 1962 after | working for the North Carolina Government Commission. Vice Chancellor Moore supervises all fiscal operations at Ml East Carolina and oversees the maintenance of all buildings, grounds, and university vehicles.

If we cannot serve the stu- dents,” he concluded, “then we need to look for work else- where.” In charge of the Department of Academic Affairs is Rob- ert H. Maier, who came to East Carolina from the University of Wisconsin where he served as a Vice Chancellor. Maier is responsible for curriculum and instructional programs. His office correlates the activities of general college, Joyner Li- Associate Dean for Student Activities Rudolph Alexander brary, the Division of Continuing Education, admissions, and the registrar. Maier also determines policies for atten- dance, academic discipline, and class schedules. He assigns all classroom and office space, and is responsible for the editing and publication of the undergarduate catalog. Rudolph Alexander serves as the Associate Dean for Stu- dent Activities. He also serves as the director of Mendenhall Student Center. Before coming to East Carolina, Alexander was sta- = tioned with the U.S. Army in Germany. % Alexander was instrumental in the development of the 2 Artists and Film Series, student travel programs, and the student lecture series.

The Board is “responsible for the general determination, control, supervision, management, and gover- nance of all affairs of the institution,” yet authority over budgets, new pro- grams and hiring of key personnel rests with the UNC system’s Board of Governors. The Board of Trustees has thirteen members, eight of whom are appoint- ed by the Board of Governors, four by the Governor, and one of whom, the elected president of the student body, serves ex-officio. Board members are: Harvey E. Beech, Andrew A. Best, John D. Bridgers, Melbane Burgwyn, James M. Dixon, Jr., Ashley B. Futrell, C. Ralph Kinsey, Jr., James H. May- nard, John F. Minges, Troy W. Pate, Jr., A. Louis Singleton, William H. Stanley and Brett Melvin. The Board’s major decisions of the year included changes in the live-in rules for sophomores and an approxi- mate $76 annual student fee increase. Because more campus housing was needed for incoming freshmen, the Board of Trustees passed a resolution which enabled rising sophomores to live off campus during the 1980-81 school year. The new resolution tem- porarily overturned a 1970 decision which required freshmen and sopho- more students who do not commute from home or are not married to live in the dormitories. The resolution will only be in effect Academics until the end of the 1980-81 school year, at which time the trustees are scheduled to meet again and evaluate what progress has been made. During late July or early August, SGA President Brett Melvin received a letter from former SGA President Tim Sullivan instructing Melvin to spend 10% of the approximate $125,000 SGA budget on “propaganda” and to insert the words “students first” on the SGA emblem. Sullivan also referred to his testimony on Melvin’s behalf at the trustee trial last May as a “perfor- mance.” A packet containing a xeroxed copy of the original handwritten letter from Sullivan to Melvin and a transcribed typewritten copy of the letter was anonymously sent to each member of the Board of Trustees, various high ranking administrators, and The East Carolinian. Also enclosed was a letter from the anonymous sender outlining why the Melvin letter was being mass mailed. Board member Louis Singleton said the anonymous correspondence “reeked of cowardice” and did not merit consideration. Most board members, however, would make no comment, but a few passages from the letter troubled other members. In the letter, Sullivan made sugges- tions to Melvin on how to run the SGA. Sullivan stated “It is worth spending 10 percent of SGA’s budget on propaganda — or else there will be no SGA to spend the other 90 percent.” Ashley Futrell, ECU Trustee, com- mented that spending students’ mon- 4 ey on ‘propaganda’ is not “a standard practice and it is my opinion that it is | illegal.” | Both Futrell and William H. Stanley | agreed that part of Sullivan’s testimo- | ny at the trial was questionable. “It’s a blueprint for something unwhole- some it looks like to me,” Futrell said. In a March 25 meeting, the Board of Trustees considered and approved several proposed student fee in- creases. The increases raised the an- nual fee costs by about $76 per stu- dent. Full-time students pay $105 per semester in student fees. The addi- tions will hike the figure to $134, which is roughly a 25% increase. The Student Activities fee was increased from $6.00 to $7.50. Intramurals added $2.50 to their $7.50 fee and SGA raised their annual figure from $12.75 to $14.25. Mendenhall Student Center’s $3.25 increase gave it a $21.50 total. The figures most questioned by stu- dents were the increases by the Athle- tic Department and Student Health Services. The Athletic Department asked for a $9.75 increase to the 1979 amount of $17.75 and the Student Health Service received a $10.50 in- crease to bring their total to $34.50. Three attempts by SGA President Brett Melvin to reduce the amount of some increases died for lact of second- ing motions. Melvin asked to cut $3.50 from the athletic fee increase, $1.00 from the $21.00 Health Services proposal and $.50 from Mendenhall Student Center’s request. ee ee eRe Farge rN YAM I ERE CRABS es RISE LLIN LPG SELIM LL ELE PACA ILRI" OIE EERE AEG.

The 13-member board discusses long- term policies and the immediate needs for the university. Their major decisions included a ruling to allow sophomores to live off campus and the approval of all proposed student fee increases. Trustee Louis B. Singleton was the only board member to support the cuts. Chancellor Thomas Brewer de- fended the increases, noting that cur- rent ECU fees were low in comparison to the other 15 universities in the UNC system, and that student ser- vices had been deteriorating due to inflation. According to Brewer, the new fee increase would raise each stu- dent’s total costs by 7.6 percent a year. The Board of Trustees has much au- thority in campus policies, yet it is still subservient to the Board of Gov- ernors of the UNC system. It is spe- cifically concerned with long range planning for the improvement of this university. William A. Dees, Jr., for- mer chairman of the UNC Board of Governors said in an address given at the conference of Governors and Trustees that ‘we have one statewide university with one governing board. While that board has delegated exten- sive power to the institutional boards the system will work only if all recog- nize the fact that we are one university with one board that has ultimate re- sponsibility to the General Assembly and to the people for public senior higher education.” _ University Board of Trustee member, _ was charged with conspiracy and em- _ bezzlement from a Greenville credit _ union. Dr. Best, a local physician and _ an ECU Board of Trustees member for | the past six and a half years, was _ among three others who were indicted _ June 4, 1979, on charges relating to the alleged theft of $13,400 from the East- _ern Tar River Credit Union. During _ the time of the alleged theft, Best was _a member of the black-operated credit union. _ Ruth Staton, a former secretary and _ treasurer of the credit union, testified _ November 14, 1979 for the state against Best. Staton, a Greenville high _ school teacher, pled guilty to charges _ in connection with the case. Ms. Staton said in testimony Tues- _ day, November 13, that she had falsi- _ fied records in an attempt to protect _ Best and the credit union, which at the _time was in danger of being shut _ down due to delinquent accounts. She further explained that money was _ shifted from different accounts to cov- _er the delinquent loans. Staton implicated Best in several _ fraudulent transactions which would have benefitted him. One transaction __ invelved the account of Georgia Corey _ of Washington, NC, from whose sav- _ ings $2500 was withdrawn, allegedly _ with her signature and consent. Corey testified that she did not know Best, and when shown a check with her signature on it, said that she was not able to write her own name. _. Other transactions involved $7000 _in the account of Delta Sigma Theta Ue eee count of Annie Taft Boyd. Staton said — that Best had used these funds to pay loans and income taxes. Best replied to the charges, saying that he had borrowed the money to repay loans that would enable the credit union to remain financially afloat. Investigators testified that Best had paid back $5600 of the amount. Best denied any knowledge of the Delta Sigma Theta transfer, and that the other transactions in question were made at the request of Staton, who was described as a close personal friend of Best. The prosecutors for the State con- tended that Best had diverted some $11,400 from the credit union funds for personal use. Defense Attorney Donald Pollock of Kinston characterized Ms. Staton as a “liar’’ who was testifying for the state in order to escape a harsh sen- tence for her admission of embezzle- ment. Pollock said that if Best was guilty of anything, it was of being a poor businessman. After deliberating for over three hours, a Pitt County Superior Court jury found Dr. Andrew Best not guilty on conspiracy and embezzle- ment charges. Best was subsequently acquitted of four additional charges after the State’s prosecutor decided that their strongest case had been de- feated. After the trial, one of the jurors said that “there just wasn’t enough evi- dence ... not without reasonable doubt.” IL igs ie Be ee Gi za Z 4 4 i j &, 3 this be J bs LEE LE IE ve j j ie pag i eke. hg We ip 2 £4 y g ie pines i Board Of Trustees E j a 2 # _ ae I | i | } & i | v LE) ESE 4 Line aca ya or pRaEA BAS PRI d “oa 4 | i S ee ey oe e ng 1 d on of k Ic careers Wor th and learning about the x tl ane eR ELI GAS LEP ATS hTERT RE ELLIE GL EL RETOOL LE LLL LSI AEE IIE NT, ITER arte OREN the School of All in Health spend a major por dem facets NOD i = O aS 8 | 3 7 See ers E 5 OF a ~m § 4 DN oe m™ < LIS TRL APG FROG LE DR IGE ELLE IE LTE LLL LEELA SLE LMM ALLE IV ALCL EGE LIEN PEERAGE LE LOL LEE LT SYBIL SNS BERS IO NIE ITE AEN OB RT mE HG REED ARNO! GARD AEM TOMB BADR ta LUE SON Yakov ON UBNIR on ue OC Mary and Bob Smith, who each have backgrounds in psychology, be- gan the Real Crisis Intervention Cen- ter several years ago. Though the cen- ter is not directly affiliated with the university, it provides the students in the Department of Social Work and Correctional Services an opportunity to counsel on a voluntary basis prior to their graduation. Dr. Taylor, who serves on the board at Real, is the university's student volunteer repre- sentative to the center. He comments, “One of the things we've been at- tempting to do is have students get involved voluntarily within the com- munity. It’s an excellent way for the students to get some experience in their field. The only way they are go- ing to learn about the problems and people they are going to be involved with eventually, is to do volunteer work in a center like Real.” Real is an all volunteer crisis inter- vention center that aids the Pitt Coun- ty area. The volunteers that man the center are required to complete a 40- hour counseling program and an in- ternship at the center before they be- come full-fledged volunteers. After completing the 8-week training pro- gram, the volunteers are capable of handling such problems as drug and alcohol abuse, rapes, runaways, po- tential suicides, child abuse, wife beating, and several personal prob- lems individuals may be faced with. Representation from the university is strong within the crisis center. Re- cently the center provided an intern- ship for students at the university. Most of the volunteers at the center come from the departments of Social Work and Correctional Services, Soci- ology, or Psychology. The Real Crisis Center is growing rapidly and becoming an asset to the university as well as the community. Most of the financial funding for the center is provided by contributions from the community and from aid Ly programs such as The United Way. Some of the financial costs are covered by the drug funds available to mental health centers from both the state and federal governments. The Real Crisis Intervention Center acts as a hands-on supplement to the Department of Social Work and Cor- rectional Services. The department of- fers courses, such as Crisis Interven- tion, that provide students with case- work studies similiar to those they will be dealing with once they gra- duate. However, the crisis center and other volunteer agencies in the area are the only way students can gain counseling experience prior to their graduations. Dr. Taylor noted, “Any- one going into a helping profession should get involved with voluntary counseling at the university level as soon as possible. By doing so, they get a pretty good idea of what they are going to be involved with, what is go- ing to be expected of them as counsel- ors, and the type of clientele they will be dealing with. I don’t know of a better way for a young student to gain experience than by volunteering for an agency like Real.” After completing the 40-hour class and the internship at the center, the volunteers are equipped to handle most any situation they are faced with, from providing directory assis- tance to other area organizations to handling potential suicides. But the primary requirement for the volunteer service is the genuine interest in help- ing others. “The important thing one must have is the ability to listen, to let people speak without making judge- ments morally or ethically. I think the reason why Real’s patronage has dou- bled in the past year is because the Left: The Real Crisis Intervention Center is an all-volunteer counseling center that aids the Pitt County area.

But when you think about it, the only way to learn anato- my is by seeing it.” The overall reaction to the class by the students who took it was positive. Shook commented that the course was the best class she had ever taken at ECU. According to Walker, “The teaching situation was really great be- cause you interacted with everybody in the class. Everybody helped every- one else.” By working and learning together, the students developed strong friend- ships during the rather short duration of the course. “At various tables we formed little cliques. In that specific group we became really close, but we weren't together long enough to get to know everyone really well, ” said Wayne Cannon, a physical therapy major. Through studying all the bodies, the students were able to note differ- ing aspects of the same component. According to Walker, ‘All of these bodies are different. As far as nerves and veins go, they’re completely turned around. We had to learn the brachial plexis in the arm, for exam- ple. On some of the bodies it was ob- vious, but on others you really had to know where it came off the spinal cord to be able to find it.” The students spent many after- noons and nights studying the mate- rial, especially on nights before tests. Many spent two to three extra hours a day at least two times a week in the lab throughout the course. “I find it pretty interesting to come in here, but it’s just like anything else — too much of it is bad,” said Walker. At times some of the students lost track of the fact that they were study- ing human beings. Physical therapy major Nancy Gibbs said, “Sometimes when you're working you almost for- got that it used to be someone who was just like you.” “You couldn’t have made it in this course if it bothered you. You couldn’t come in here every day thinking, ‘my gosh, what am I doing to this per- son’,” added Teresa Shook. “I looked at it as being a book that I read, it’s a learning tool. I saw it that way more than I did it being a human body,” Academics said Cannon. The medical students who did the dissection of the bodies in the medical anatomy course held a memorial ser- vice for the bodies at the end of the term. “Since they were new cadavers when we started on them and they were in a dissected form when we fin- ished, we held a memorial service to show our appreciation of the opportu- nity to use the material,” said J.C. Harvell, a medical student who took the original anatomy class and served as a lab instructor for the Allied Health course. Harvell was one of four instructors who were responsible for teaching and grading the students in the labo- ratory part of the course. Medical stu- dents Andrew Harakas, Lee Pippin and anatomy graduate student Tom Cury shared in those responsibilities. “It’s an excellent learning opportunity for us, too,” said Harvell. ‘“The chance for us to review gross anatomy after having had the physiology, histology, embryology and neuroanatomy makes it much easier for us to begin putting the whole picture together.” The instructors’ responsibilities in- cluded prosecting, or removing all of the material and demonstrating it, be- ing available to answer questions dur- ing laboratory hours and setting up the lab for practical exams. The opportunity to learn gross anatomy using human material is a privilege, especially for Allied Health students. Many medical schools do not have fresh cadaver material avail- able for students to use. Often, they have all human material prosected and even that is in limited supply. “Human material is difficult to pro- cure and expensive to maintain,” Har- vell explained. “When studying anatomy, it’s a real opportunity to use the body of another human being. As a result of our studies, therapy stu- dents and medical students alike have the opportunity to help other people.” As much as the students appreciat- ed the chance to study human materi- al, they all admitted that the course made them much less willing to don- ate their own bodies for similar re- search. “I think it’s great for the peo- ple who want to do it, but it’s also made me less willing to donate my body,” said Nancy Gibbs. “I agree,” said Wayne Cannon, “but I believe in donating organs such as kidneys and corneas that can benefit other people.” Right: Nancy Gibbs, Blanks Walker and other members of the class look on as J.C.

Vickie Phillips, a Class A certificate holder who voluntarily entered the in- ternship program, felt that it was one of the most important elements of her masters program. “I think it’s the only way to understand the work of a guidance counselor. I got a lot of ideas by establishing small groups and working with individual students. | had a chance to do some of the things the counselor didn’t have time for. I tested my ideas with the students and got the practical experience I needed at the school. The counselor I worked with was very supportive and encour- aged me to experiment with the things I was interested in. I think the depart- ment should require everyone to take the internship because, though a per- son may have had experience in the classroom, the guidance office is a whole different area of education.” A minimum of thirty hours is re- quired for the counseling degree. Be- cause of the internship, the program may take a year and a half for a full- time student to complete. With so many of the counseling students still working while attending school part- time, it may take some as many as two school years and one summer to com- plete their degree requirements. Another phase of the program is the practical counseling lab located in Speight 130. The lab, while offering practical experience for the students, also serves as a counseling center for the university and community citi- zens. Kevin feels the lab is a valuable part of the program because it gives the students a chance to put into prac- tice what they have learned in the classroom. He added, ‘You learn what is required for a proficient counselor while getting the feel for seeing peo- ple. You learn to be natural and spon- taneous toward them and that’s very important.” The lab is open during the spring semester and for a 10-week period in the summer. It offers much of the same things a professional counseling center offers and stressed personal counseling and provides occupational information. “It’s not just a service to the people,” added Lorraine. “It took me from a student and placed me in the role of a professional. The lab served a dual purpose. The education I received there was invaluable.” “Dr. Weaver once said that the key concept in effective counseling is to absorb as much as possible through reading textbooks and involving yourself in practical experiences, then just go, forget it all and become a counselor,” recalled Kevin. ‘What you have internalized through those experiences is the greatest asset you'll have as a counselor.” Counseling involves a great deal of caring form those who chose to make it a career. ‘You have to want to help people. There has to be a special love and dedication for the very profes- sion,” furthered Anne. Counselors may become more im- portant as the pressures society puts on the people increase. With inflation, unemployment and national crises on the uprise, it is easy to see the need for more people who are willing to just listen. “You have to learn to accept people for what they are, without try- ing to change the whole world and make everybody perfect,” Lorraine concluded.

The Department has functioned as a service area for other university departments for several years. Under the direction of Dr. Nash W. Love, Jr., the department has grown rapidly during the past several years. A major in Child Development and Family Relations concentrates on hu- man behavior, not only at each devel- opmental level from conception through the geriatric years, but also gives attention to the total health his- tory of the family. Course work in- cludes training in behavior modifica- tion, family counseling, health care of the family, nutrition, housing and management, clothing and textiles, developmental and educational test- ing. While considerable attention is giv- en in theoretical courses, special em- phasis in the program is in the practi- cum area. Recognizing the importance of experience with a wide range of Left: Child Development and Family Rela- tions majors are introduced to supervision, ob- servation and participation with preschoolers in the departmental operated nursery school. Inset: The department operates three preschool laboratories that serve as a learning device for children, students are given the op- portunity to work in a community day care facility. Some students elect course work in the training of excep- tional children through such universi- ty resources as the Remedial Educa- tion Activity Program. With three departmental operated preschool programs, students are in- troduced to supervision, observation, and participation with pre-school-age children very early in their training. During the participation experience students are responsible for teaching young children, attending parent con- ferences, and participating in parent education programs. The preschool is open to the public on a first-come, first-serve basis based on an even boy-girl ratio. A $15 non- refundable deposit and a $135 fee is charged per child each session. The sessions correspond with the univer- sity semester. Traditionally, job opportunities for Child Development and Family Rela- tions graduates have been in child Child Development majors as well as for the children. Below: While the theoretical aspects of the curriculum are not unimportant, the un- derstanding and concern for each child’s needs can only be achieved through practical exper- ience. care programs but recently Child De- velopment majors have found jobs in other related fields. Dr. Love, chair- man of the department, listed school social workers, orphanage counselors, directors of educational programs for deprived children, and child-family faculty members at community col- leges as job opportunities for Child Development majors. Child Development majors enjoy the unique blend of theoretical and practical experience offered by the School of Home Economics. One Child Development major who com- mented on the program offered that “It puts you in an educational envi- ronment at a continual basis with the children. So far I have just observed the children through the two-way mirrored observation room and have had to do research on the physical, emotional, intellectual and social be- haviors of preschoolers. We get to use the actual behavior of the children as a direct illustration of the development theories we are learning about. I can’t wait until I actually get into the class- room with the kids. I think the course adds to the Child Development pro- gram. It’s wonderful, because while the children are playing and learning, in a sense, sO are we.” 145 School of Home Economics 146 Academics as some may see it. It is Medical school can be very rewarding but it is hard work and not as glorious Not All White Coats And Stethoscopes The East Carolina University School of Medicine opened its doors to the first class of four year students in 1977. There are now three classes of medical students. Medical school education involves two phases. The first two years cover the basic sciences. They are essential- ly a high-powered, fast-paced two years of lectures. During this time, students learn the groundwork neces- sary to becoming a doctor. They will be exposed to that information again and again. This process of re-learning is most Medical School is ... “basic high school biology (as they keep telling us)” ... “being taught by many specialists, none of whom know the oth- er’s material .. .” evident during the third and fourth years of medical school. Here, the in- struction turns to a didactic teaching method. The student gets firsthand patient experience and is often the closest staff person to the patient and his family. Students spend long hours at the hospital and “on call.” The bookwork has given way to a practical problem-solving experience. A widely accepted premise of medi- cal education today maintains that residents and medical students should receive a portion of their training out- side the walls of the medical center and away from the academic atmo- sphere of the teaching hospital. Stu- dents and some residents also have the benefit of clinical experiences in the offices of private practitioners throughout the region and in health departments in Pitt, Wayne, Lenoir, and Beaufort counties. Psychiatry stu- dents and residents receive some of their training at the Walter B. Jones Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center and the Pitt County Mental Health Center in Greenville. A very important, but sometimes overlooked, part of the Medical School are the five doctoral programs in the basic medical sciences, which were the first Ph.D. degrees to be of- fered by the university. The imple- mentation of the doctoral programs represents a special milestone in the progress of the university, placing it among the six private and public in- stitutions in North Carolina to offer Ph.D.-level graduate studies. Dr. William Frisell, assistant dean for graduate studies in the medical school and chairman of the Depart- ment of Biochemistry, said the doctor- al programs will greatly enhance and strengthen medical student education, post-graduate clinical training and continuing education within the school. He said the design of the pro- grams recognizes the close relation- ship between Ph.D. and M.D. pro- grams in health sciences. Another very important part of the Medical School is its research pro- gram. While this program is essential to the Medical School’s growth, it does not directly affect the students. During 1979, the Medical School re- ceived several grants to support its en- deavors. One of the grants received was from a private pharmaceutical company to be used for the development of a new drug that reduces high blood pressure. Dr. John P. DaVanzo, professor of pharmocology, said it is the first time an academic institution has been in- volved in the direct development of a commercial product. DaVanzo said, “It’s a new concept in academia, and it shows the trust and confidence the company has in ECU.” The project is funded by a one-year renewable grant from Pharmaceutical Corporation. The study is a collaborative project for the Medical School’s physiology and pharmacology departments. Another research project involved using scorpion venom to study the mechanism responsible for the devel- opment of pancreatitis, an inflamma- tion of the pancreas that is fatal in some cases. The project was funded by a $180,000 grant from National In- stitutes of Health. Dr. Paul Fletcher is conducting research on the venom’s effects on guinea pigs to learn more about how it affects the release of di- gestive enzymes believed to cause the disease. The East Carolina University Medi- cal School offers numerous services to the residents of Pitt County and the state. The Eastern Carolina Family Practice Center is probably one of the most beneficial services that the ECU Medical School offers. At the Family Practice Center patients receive treat- ment from physicians while medical students observe. One of the newest additions to the Family Practice Cen- ter is the pharmacy. Prescriptions are filled there and pharmacist Willie B. Webster takes time to explain the need for the medication and what its reactions will be. The dental unit is also a newcomer to the Family Practice Center. Since its opening in July, the availability and provision of dental services have been well received according to Dr. Ray- mond Garrison, director. Operating on the philosophy that dentistry is an important aspect of primary health care, the unit promotes a cooperative relationship between dentists in the unit and physicians in the Family Practice Center. One of the advan- tages afforded by the cooperative ap- proach is the use of a single, problem- oriented record that can be used to document medical and dental diagno- Right: Late night studying is more often than not a part of the medical school student’s ritual. aay e ‘ ‘ ecaragaate ER ® m1 SAMI ae SOD i Shee GRRE PTR OE TR ea © et a A "4 Pm mpage “eS ppaerr men” hi RaW BRAT AY MURDERED TIRE pee MEI Siwy ee ee Rae ts. nr eee ET ERE EES . * .

The purchase of a neonatal van, an ambulance designed specially for the transport of infants, will greatly en- hance the chances of survival for criti- cally ill newborns in eastern North Carolina. The vehicle is a modified ambulance with monitors, medica- tions and support equipment which is necessary for evaluating and treating the unique problems of infants. A fast, safe and painless procedure which provides detailed diagnostic in- formation and reduces the need for exploratory surgery is available at Pitt County Memorial Hospital in con- junction with ECU School of Medi- cine. The computed tomographic scanner is a sophisticated device which produces cross-sectional im- ages of the body to detect diseases, tumors, blood vessel damage and oth- er disorders. The CT scanner not only produces detailed pictures of organs, but replaces many painful and risky diagnostic methods previously used. In the spring of 1979 the ground breaking ceremony for the schools’ $26 million medical education facility was held. The Brody family from Greenville and Kinston donated $1.5 Above left: The skeleton of the new $26 million, 451,000 square foot Brody Medical Science Building rises above the center of the new 40- acre Health Science Campus.

Participating in the ceremony were ECU Chancellor Thomas Brewer, Pitt County Memorial Hospital Build- ing Committee Chairman Charles Gaskins, Medical School Dean William Laupus, Pitt Hedrick million to the ECU Medical Founda- tion. To recognize the largest private gift ever received by the university, and to recognize the family’s support of the developing medical school the ECU Board of Trustees voted to name the new facility the Brody Medical Science Building. The 451,000 square foot building is located on a new 40- acre health science campus adjacent to Pitt County Memorial Hospital. While the Brody Medical Science Building is under construction, the ECU School of Medicine is leasing a 25,000 square foot section of the old Pitt County Memorial Hospital. All of the school’s clinics operate from this area with exception of surgery and high-risk obstetrics, which continue to serve at the East Carolina Family Practice Center. Another ground breaking ceremo- ny was held on December 4, 1979, which started the construction on the $5.3 million project that will add 166 beds to the psychiatric unit. The 70,000 square foot building will bring the total bed count at Pitt Memorial Hospital to 569. The project was fund- ed by the School of Medicine with appropriations provided by the state legislature. Dr. William E. Laupus, the medical school dean, said “The new County Commission Chairman Ed Warren, and Pitt County Memorial Hospital Board of Trusttes member James Cheatham.

The development of patient care services and a medical education program will be second to none in Eastern North Carolina.” The new bed tower is scheduled to open in two years. The psychiatric addition to the northwest corner of the hospital will be completed in 18 months. The first buildings to open at the East Carolina Health Science Campus were the $2.5 million Vivarium and Utility Plant. The 15,090 square foot Vivarium, which took 15 months to complete, contains 13 animal rooms, an operating suite, an infectious and isotope isolation area and three facul- ty project labs for extended research. A building for large animals and a grazing lot with be located next to the facility. Manager Dawn Fitts said “The opening of the Vivarium is very important to East Carolina University clinical faculty with offices at Pitt County Memorial Hospital.” In addi- tion to the Vivarium, the medical school will continue to operate its ani- mal facilities on the East Carolina University main campus. The Utility Plant provides heating, cooling and humidity control for the health sci- ences buildings. Medical students are often consid- ered different by other students. But most med students feel there are more similarities than differences.

It is defi- nitely not all white coats and stetho- scopes. Since its beginning in the fall of 1977, the medical school has come of age as the fastest growing part of East Carolina University. This growth has been of great service to both the peo- ple of eastern North Carolina by pro- viding them with quality medical care, but also to aspiring physicians throughout the state who wish to re- ceive a medical education. Hedrick 153 School of Medicine | From the doors of a hallway above 1 | the A.J. Fletcher Recital Hall come some strange and eerie sounds. They do not sound like the familiar musical notes of a violin, flute, or guitar, but rather like a “bleep” or “beep” from a television ping-pong game. Behind these doors one can find Dr. Otto Henry, and -the array of equipment known as the School of Music’s elec- tronic music studio. Dr. Henry, who holds a doctorate in musicology, has been in charge of the | studio since it opened in 1970. Com- ing along with Dr. Henry was the Moog Series III synthesizer, which re- espera nA CROMER POR INE ERI IDET DRG” BLIP I ES IDOLS III GE AI BEE IA ATE SELON EIA RE LRG At URI ON ae OT LIE School of Music’s electronic music synthesizer keeps students in The Woog sembles a telephone operator’s switchboard with its numerous knobs, switches and plug jacks. The Moog, developed in 1965, was a bar- gain in 1970 at a cost of $7,000. The electronic music studio also has three portable synthesizers similar to those used by today’s rock and roll bands. Although any general college stu- dent can take electronic music compo- sition, Dr. Henry expressed his opin- ion that a prospective student should have some background in music or experience with audio equipment. The course covers such audio basics as us- ing four track and double deck tape wg tt eee ne eutet rari repantirtenran rican Rata st stk rt ght parts ena staat Wet feta a a gt Peigete tana nent MA ee tb a we recorders, patchcords, and editing of tapes. Another important objective is teaching the student to properly splice “bloops” and mistakes on the tape. As Dr. Henry summed it up, “It’s a great introduction into the audio and elec- tronics field.” Most of the non-music majors who take the courses are from the art or drama departments, and are looking for multimedia exposure. In the upper level courses, composi- tion in electronic media 4366 and 4376, students work primarily on composing electronic music, with em- phasis on combining instruments and live performances.

Right: Prior to beginning work on her latest composition, Kathy Memory makes an adjustment to the Moog Series III synthesizer. composes his own music along with “realizations,” changing a traditional song such as “The William Tell Over- ture” into an electronic composition. One of the most popular “realiza- tions’’ was the recent album, “Switched on Bach.” Dr. Henry commented that one of the reasons the studio is popular among students is the fact that it is similar to a lab, where something con- structive can be accomplished. An- other benefit is the policy of letting students keep the tapes they compose. Dr. Henry is particularly proud of former student Jill Frazier, who is cur- rently working in Hollywood, Cali- fornia, where she composes electronic music and sound effects for television commercials and movies. Some of her free-lance accomplishments include the movies, “Hard Core’, “Red Ryder”, Twilight’s Last Gleaming”, and “Empire of the Ants.” In North Carolina, only UNC- Greensboro, UNC, and East Carolina offer a Bachelor of Music degree in electronic music composition. Dr. Henry says that the B.M. degree “is only the beginning,” and that anyone who is serious about the medium should pursue a master’s degree. Ca- reer opportunities in electronic music include a wide range of multi-media possibilities, such as cinematogra- phists, theater and stage managers, re- cording studio and commercial music store personnel, and as a musician in an orchestra or rock and roll band. Dr. Henry sees the future of elec- tronic music continuing to experience technological advances. The newest change is connecting a Moog synthe- sizer to a computer. The computer can be programmed to reproduce the exact musical note over and over. This capa- bility will aid in preventing mistakes. It also eliminates the need for double or four-tracking a tape. The computer can, in fact, “write its own music.” Dr. Henry concluded, “I would like to see our Moog patched in with a computer. I certainly hope the university moves in that direction.” 153.

After contacting him several times, I finally managed to get an interview with the man who is running against Robert Morgan for the US Senate. Cooperation was not a problem, time was. Between campaigning, attending meetings and attending the Republi- can National Convention, it was all but impossible to find him at home with an hour to spare. When I arrived at his house, I met Action 12 News reporter Bob Perry at the doorbell. We both wanted a story. When the door opened, I finally met the man whom I’d been in contact with for months, John East. East, who was on temporary leave from the university during the year, has taught political science at ECU for the past fifteen years. When asked what he would do if he won the cam- paign, he replied, “I would have to resign my teaching position at East Carolina, simply because the Senate is a full-time job. I can’t do both. I’m on full time, non-paid leave right now because I need to devote all my time to the campaign and I want to avoid po- tential conflict of interest. If I succeed in the campaign, then I will have to resign.” After receiving a degree from Earl- ham College in Richmond, Indiana, Dr. East entered the Marine Corps Of- ficers Candidate School, where he was commissioned as a Lieutenant. In 1955, while serving at Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base, East contracted polio. “The vaccine was invented dur- ing the summer of 1955, but it wasn’t until the following year that it was mass marketed. I spent a year in the hospital. I do walk on long leg braces and crutches depending on the dis- tance I have to travel. I’m up on my feet every day, so I’m not totally con- fined to my wheelchair. But I do have to use it for distances, and sometimes for convenience,” East stated. After his stay in the hospital, the candidate enrolled in the University of Illinois Law School. After working as an attorney in Florida for a year, East decided that he would be happier teaching political science at the uni- versity level. He earned his masters and doctorate degrees in Political Sci- ence at the University of Florida. He has taught at East Carolina for the past fifteen years. In recent years, East has become closely involved in political activities. He received 44 percent of the vote in 1968 when he ran for North Caroli- na’s Secretary of State. In 1976 East was elected as a Republican National Committeeman and was a delegate to the 1976 Republican National Con- vention. In 1980, he was reelected to that position. “I have tried to combine my academic interest in politics with practical experience. I feel that is im- portant to do because it makes one a bit more rounded,” replied East. East first became involved in the Senate campaign at the urging of Sen- ator Jesse Helms and a variety of Re- publicans throughout the state. With no primary opposition, his campaign: was able to concentrate mainly on the general election. Dr. East has had to answer many questions about his physical ability to handle the office while being in a wheelchair. He feels his handicap will not inhibit his service to the people of North Carolina. “I try to treat my handicap in a very Teeter to aR gg TPR arr we sate AMES: DET ADRENAL LLG RRS Oe OIL mm PTE IR RA OE RAT ERNE LIER ONT HL NSO acerca =P ag EM HM RE oor De OC eae AC natural way. I let the press do what they want as far as revealing the ex- tent of my handicap in pictures and stories. I don’t make any effort to hide it. I always make clear the origin of my handicap and that it is not an ob- stacle to the campaign,” East com- mented. “I have exactly the same dis- ability that President Roosevelt had and he went on to be elected governor of New York twice and President four times after contracting polio. There is a strong historical precedent for what I am trying to do and J think the vot- ers will understand that my handicap is not an obstacle to serving in the Senate,” he added. When asked to comment on what he felt is the nation’s greatest political problem East replied, “The United States has a very great tradition on which to build upon in terms of mor- al, industrial and technological ideas. Something has to be done to stop the other powers of the world from ex- ploiting our weaknesses. They will continue to do so unless we restore “Something has to be done to stop the other powers of the | world from exploiting our weaknesses. They will continue to do so unless we restore that former balance and regain the stability we now don’t have.” that former balance and regain the stability we now don’t have.” John East, his wife of 27 years, Sis, and their two daughters, Catherine and Marty, have been working con- stantly on his campaign for Senate.

East plans to return to East Carolina in the spring if he does not succeed in the campaign but plans to serve ECU as a senator if he does win. “In my opinion, this campaign is a no-lose proposition for me,” East commented. “Either way I still have the extraordinary opportunity to serve this area and this institution, and in the long run, work for what I feel is the well-being of this state and the country.” 157 John East Feature AEN Pe ere rer iee a Deen Deen ae Pa ne ART eb RAIN Sa na al Upset fh TS Mae Sea) BS A ioe Rae € PEG ERAS ee See cee) SHas. 3 ‘ ae pte Re cae Ss LORS AIG BSS NS Bsr ee: Renae) a x ty ig, uh 4 7 HEP A MR DARIN ER CRIB ee ANAS NE REGIS SCPE IE ORL NEEDED LS GROEN I IIE PTE BRE ASE TLE LILO SLL LOT LIN BNE LET ONT HE STOP NE, IPI Naga Sn Being a male in a traditionally female profession finds the few men in ECU’s nursing’ program In Great Demand The 1970's saw a rising number of women protesting employment dis- crimination. As court battles raged and marches held, greater numbers entered into once traditionally male jobs. In fact, women became sought after in certain fields of employment. The coming of the 80’s brought a second reversal in employment tradi- tions with men getting more involved in positions once dominated by fe- males. One such field is nursing. To- day the rate of employed male nurses is growing at roughly 10% annually. The East Carolina School of Nurs- ing has the largest number of male students enrolled this year, though they amount to less than a dozen. Still, only a decade ago, there were no men graduating from the School of Nur- sing. The men who were here this year had several positive opinions about the school and the job outlook for them when they graduate. John Langley, a senior, acquired ba- sic nursing skills when he served as an Army medic in Bemerhamen, West Germany. After his tour of duty he enrolled in the school of nursing here. John said, “Men are overlooking the nursing school at East Carolina. There’s more variety in the nursing program, and you can do more with it than a medical degree, with less time spent in school.” Doug Whitfield is a senior in the family nursing program. Doug com- mented that ECU “has the best basic nursing program in the state, and it’s the only university to offer a master’s degree in nursing administration in North Carolina.” Doug added that be- ing the only man in the class bothered him the first day, but now he doesn’t even notice. Rick McDaniel, a senior, said he got turned on to nursing as a teenager. He used to work at a Kinston hospital, where he helped emergency room per- sonnel, autopsyists, anesthetists, and with the ambulance crew. He said he was influenced to become a nurse by an anesthetist. Rick plans to go into emergency room service or coronary care. Rick agrees that male students at Left: Scott Fuller, the only male in the nursing class of 1981, is surrounded in class by his female counterparts. ECU are missing out on the School of Nursing. He suggests that one reason is because the school is not directing its advertising or recruitment towards male students. Rick added, “being a man in a woman’s field gives you un- limited employment opportunity and security. Traditionally, men move into administrative nursing positions faster than women.” A constant reminder of female dominance in Rick’s profession is the fact that most nursing textbooks use the word “she” exclusively. “Even my instructors say it,” he said. Rick com- mented that sitting in an all-girl class “makes you feel self-conscious, but it’s great. The girls are like people ev- erywhere, some put me on a pedestal because I’m a man, most treat me equally, and a few put me down.” Scott Fuller is a junior nursing ma- jor from Winston-Salem. Scott said he was always interested in science, and he even applied to several medical and veterinary schools. He was influenced to pursue a nursing career by his fa- ther and a friend of the family who earns $50,000 a year as an anesthetist. Scott himself wants to become a li- censed anesthetist. He remarked that although a registered nurse with a four year degree can expect starting pay of $14,000 per year, an anesthetist just out of school can start at salaries of up to $22,000. Scott commented that ECU’s school of nursing is, “one of the best in the southeastern states.” He went on to say, “I thought it would be a breeze, but between all the papers and the lab assignments, I soon found out differ- ent. My roommates, who are business majors, seem to have more free time than I do. I’m usually in class, work- ing at the hospital, or sleeping.” Fuller explained what is involved in a four year nursing degree. “Your freshman year is spent mostly in class, learning all the basics, like mak- ing beds, the body’s vital signs, and functions. In your sophomore year you begin hospital training. My first experience was working at Nash Me- morial Hospital on the medical-surgi- cal floor. During your junior year you work on the intensive care floor. Cur- rently, I am working two eight-hour shifts each week at the hospital. My senior courses will involve the psy- chological aspects of nursing, like team nursing, leadership and commu- nity health.” Scott, who will be the only male nursing graduate in 1981, said that men add variety to the nursing pro- gram. He stated that he does get some flack about being a male nursing stu- dent. “It’s harder for some of the older nurses and a few of the young ones to accept you as a male in their profes- sion. I have plenty of dates though.” Scott jokes about being a freshman, when he told girls he was a science major. “The first time I told a date I was going to be a male nurse, she laughed and said ‘you're kidding’. In fact,” he added, “the girls seem to ride me more about it than guys do.” “Being a male has even affected me at the hospital,” Scott remarked. “One doctor would not allow me to be pre- sent during the catheterizing or thigh examinations of female patients, but he permitted female students to per- form these operations on male pa- tients.” Scott felt that this situation would change when he graduates. Bill Kroll is a senior with a double major in nursing and psychology. He said his dual major will give him a humanistic background to better un- derstand the physical as well as psy- chological aspects of nursing. This in turn will make him a more market- able person in the nursing field. And being a male makes him clinically in demand. Kroll was influenced by his mother who is also a nurse. Bill started at Lenoir Community College and went on to Pitt Community College to re- ceive an A.S. degree in nursing. “It’s not all bedpans and thermom- eters,” Bill stated. “We learn such things as personnel management and twenty-four hour staffing.” He said he had to go through his own identity crisis when he first entered nursing school. And though he has been mar- ried for over a year, he still meets with some reprisals from his friends. Bill added, “most men think that being a man in a woman’s field is below their self-esteem.” He says that most of his female counterparts treat him as an equal, but some of the younger stu- dents resent him. But Bill Kroll does not care, not when he’s clinically in demand. 159 School of Nursing 160 pete ARNE et RONOPRENS Me cee eT TER ef Sc WPT INE ME pee EEE E UTE 8 IER CELIO ELE LS SERED SL AA LEE LI A IIE SONS REMI EDN tgp VN ME ETI GIO TEL LILLE LPL PEM IEEE SE III AIOE I IS RAI LIN SON ET I aaa eee onal Students in the power technology course in the School of Technology discover that, with a little help from the sun or wind, their alternative energy machines represent A Powerhouse Of New Ideas Students in the School of Technol- ogy’s power technology course de- signed and built several “alternative energy machines” that were displayed several times during the year. The class, INDT 1082, was taught by Pro- fessor Paul Waldrop and stressed the generation, transmission and utiliza- tion of alternative sources of power. The projects built by the students in- cluded a solar collector, a wind gener- ator, a solar oven, a solar water heater and even an alcohol still. The still was designed and built by David Norton with the help of James Glover. The machine was completely constructed from materials found in a junk yard. Its major part was built from two hot water tanks welded to- gether and a tower salvaged from a junk yard in Ayden. The still cost Norton about $250 to build and oper- ate, with the major expense being a permit to operate it from the state. “When he got it working, David ran off a batch of mash, put it in his lawn mower with a little cooking oil, and mowed his grass,” said Waldrop. “I don’t know what he might have done with any that was left.” Other projects included a reflective solar collector that is used for heating water and a wind generator that stu- dents built from Waldrop’s design. “This is just a prototype, but it can generate half a horsepower in a 15- knott wind,” said Waldrop. His final model will be used to pump water from a 45-foot well to his home in the Washington area. A solar oven was another interest- ing machine the students built. De- pending on its location, the oven heats to between 250 and 275 degrees. “It can be used to bake bread,” said Waldrop, “but it’s rather difficult get- ting it to brown. It is ideal for reheat- ing leftovers, though,” he added. Above left: This solar oven was capable of reaching temperatures of 275 degrees. ‘It’s ideal for reheating leftovers,” according to Paul Wal- drop, teacher of the power technology course. Below left: A wind generator was the only ma- chine that the students did not design them- selves. Built according to Waldrop’s specifica- tions, the wind mill will eventually pump water to his home. Right: An alcohol still built by David Norton was a highlight of the projects at the Energy Fair. Inset: Darrell McCoy and Noah Clark pour water into the reflective solar collector they built for their project. Academics A small solar water heater built in the class heated water to about 190 degrees. It was constructed from alu- minum foil, cardboard and glue at a cost of roughly $4.00. The projects were displayed in Jan- uary at the first annual Energy Fair, sponsored by the technology school and the energy division of the Green- ville Utilities Commission. The fair was held on a rather warm Saturday and drew a large crowd. People from as far away as Wilmington contacted Waldrop after the fair to obtain more information about the projects. A re- presentative from the Edgecombe- Martin Electrical Membership Corpo- ration who attended the fair was so impressed that he requested Waldrop to present a demonstration of the equipment at Edgecombe Technical Institute. “There are only four ways to get energy from its source to where it is needed,” said Waldrop, “and there are only six basic types of energy. But as far as energy utilization goes, there is no end to that. My basic philosophy is that for our country to achieve energy self-sufficiency, we’ve got to look ahead to where we're going with an occasional look back to where we've been.” A Aam_mc- = DO O SS Op ASG h OO GH O GH : 3 : : J “4 SSE SRP CRE cS iis SPR hata: ES” ibe IO atti MOOD ta. ii ce cai 3 ERR entities aRigneanse ; ee ; oar SAS are SAS pen ae HI ao Penrer HP WVe Der pee kwg Soeeayian oe AR ee VOM AN Tt — bag et pT crak eG ATI oa ONENESS “MER INEI en ne are tee er ee at = “22s #22.

Dye finished six years of tenure which included ECU’s first bowl appearance since 1965 and a final season mark of 7-3-1. He also led the Pirates to end the sea- son ranked first in the nation in rush- ing, averaging 368.5 yards per game, second in total offense with 475.3 yards per game, and third for points scored per game with 34.5. The Pirates opened their 1979 slate with a 31-6 pounding of Western Carolina. Fullback Theodore Sutton provided 112 of ECU’s 514 total yards. Things were going bad for the Cata- mounts from the start. Place kicker Ted Dunn slipped on the soggy Fick- len Stadium turf and gave the home team first possession at its 40-yard line. Quarterback Leander Green con- nected with wide receiver Vern Dav- enport on his first two tosses of the game. Green rolled right behind the offensive line and sprinted the re- maining 25 yards to put the Pirates on the board less than three minutes into the contest. Neither team sustained on offense again until halfback Sam Har- rell plowed over from the 1-yard line with 9:30 remaining before halftime. Again, a Green to Davenport pass completion set up the touchdown burst. A 70-yard Green pass to Billy Ray Washington sent a 1-yard touchdown blast up the heart of the WCU defense with less than three minutes remain- ing before halftime. East Carolina took a three-touchdown advantage to the locker room at halftime. Sutton sprinted 15 yards for the first touchdown of the second half, followed by a fourth quarter field goal by Bill Lamm from 24 yards out. Western Carolina finally drove 76 yards in seven plays on the reserve defensive unit, and tailback Leonard Williams swept right to put an end to ECU’s shutout hopes.

A pair of sprints for 52 yards by Sulli- van set up a 15-yard touchdown run for Vickers, but East Carolina quickly answered when Green ran right for 14 yards to the end zone seven minutes into the second quarter. East Caroli- na’s next drive ended as Rodney Allen booted what appeared to be a routine punt to State safety Woodrow Wilson. Wilson weaved through the Pirate coverage unit for 45 yards and the Wolfpack’s second touchdown of the game. ECU’s Bill Lamm capped the scoring in the first half with a 29-yard field goal as time expired. Midway through the third quarter, freshman quarterback Darnell John- son burst through the ECU defense for a touchdown during the first play of his collegiate career. On the second down following the State kickoff, Green lofted a pass which Vern Dav- enport tipped into the waiting hands of safety Mike Nall, giving State the ball on ECU’s 29-yard line. Five plays later, Sullivan again stung the Pirates on a 12-yard burst to pad the Wolf- pack lead. With just over five minutes to play, East Carolina completed its scoring with a Lamm field goal of 21 yards. State, however, continued as Sullivan sprinted right to set the final margin. “Red Means Go” was the theme around Wallace Wade Stadium at Duke University, referring to the arri- val of new head coach Red Wilson. The theme appeared appropriate fol- lowing the Blue Devils’ 28-14 shock- ing victory over the Pirates. Wilson had come to the school which was more recently known as a basketball power with the promise of an exciting, wide open offense, and the claim held true in their season opener with the highly favored Pirates. | The man of the hour was quarter- back Stanley Driskell. A senior from Atlanta, Driskell came off the bench to bail out ineffective starter Craig Browning after the start of the second quarter. The Blue Devils were trailing 6-0 after a 26-yard jaunt by ECU’s Anthony Collins. What Driskell would do to the Pirates was evident on his first play of the game as he rolled left for eight yards and then pioneered an 80-yard touchdown drive. Driskell went on to rush for 119 yards on 13 carries. He scored a pair of touch- downs and threw for another.

This was the first in a series of fumbles that sealed the Pirates’ doom against the Blue Devils. Offensively the Pirates moved the ball well, gain- ing a total of 333 yards compared to Duke’s 369. Anthony Collins led all rushers with 133 yards on 9 carries. “I don’t think there’s any doubt who Duke’s quarterback is,” said coach Pat Dye following the contest. Wake Forest’s unheralded Demon Deacons handed ECU its third con- secutive loss of the season with a 23- 20 upset win at Groves Stadium in Winston-Salem. “It was a fine football game,” said Dye, “one I’m sure the fans enjoyed. I didn’t see anyone on either side quit.” The key to the Deacs’ offensive do- mination came from quarterback Jay Venuto. The Salem, New Jersey, na- tive set out to destroy the Pirate secon- dary, completing a phenomenal 28 out of 33 aerial attempts for 334 yards, and establishing new Wake Forest and At- lantic Coast Conference records. Anthony Collins led the Pirates with 132 yards on eight carries even though he missed over half the game due to a minor shoulder injury. He finished with three ECU touchdowns, includ- ing a 72-yard scamper past the De- mon’s defense. The game was tied 13- 13 at the half, as star halfback James McDougald scored for Wake Forest and Collins added a seven yard effort before intermission. Wake Forest went ahead in the third quarter when Venuto hit end Wayne Baumgardner on a 27-yard scoring strike. The touchdown was set up by a Venuto to Kenny Duckett pass for 53 yards. The Pirates tied the score with a marathon run by Collins. “The end took me on the play and we got a good block on the corner,” said ECU quar- terback Leander Green. “(Billy Ray) Washington made a great block downfield and Collins just outran the rest.” Lamm’s extra point tied the game at 20, but Wake Forest kicker Phil Denfield conncted on a 40-yard field goal to put the Deacs ahead 23- 20. East Carolina spent the rest of the night trying to spring a long gain that would set up a score. On their final possession of the game, the Pirates drove from their own 37-yard line to the Wake 38 before time ran out. A penalty on what appeared to be the final play of the game gave ECU one final shot, but a 54-yard field goal at- tempt by Vern Davenport fell ap- proximately 10 yards short. “Vern has kicked them from over 60 in practice,” said Dye. “He was just awfully tired at the end of the game after running pass patterns all night.” After dropping three straight games on the road the Pirates came home to Ficklen Stadium and celebrated their arrival with a 45-10 thrashing of the VMI Keydets. It became apparent early in the game that it would be a long night for the Keydets, as the Pirates jumped out to a 14-0 lead early in the first quarter. The Bucs lost their bid for a shutout early in the second quarter, when VMI kicker Craig Jones booted the Keydets out of a 4th and 6 situation with a 47-yard field goal. On the next possession, Bill Lamm kicked a 33- yard field goal, and the score re- mained 17-3 until midway through the second quarter when Sam Harrell upped it to 24-3 on a two yard touch- down jaunt. With less than a minute and a half gone in the third quarter, Harrell took a pitch from Green and carried it 61 yards to the end zone. Next it was Mike Hawkins’ turn, as he darted for 12 yards to up the Pirate lead to 38-3. Reserve quarterback Henry Trevathan added ECU’s final score of the even- ing on a 29-yard run — his first touchdown ever at East Carolina. VMI’s Floyd Allen secured the Key- det’s only touchdown of the night with a 41-yard run agains ECU’s re- serve defensive unit. “T think we did a good job of prep- Below: James McDougald, star of the Demon Deacons’ backfield, outran the ECU defense for a touchdown toward the end of the second quar- rex.

Though the 49 points were the fourth highest one-game total in Pirate history, and the most points scored by an ECU team since 1976, Baker felt his team came out of the contest with only a mild whipping. The Pirate offense, ranked ninth nationally going into the game, steamrolled the Bulldogs for 447 yards rushing and another 100 yards through the air. Quarterback Leander Green scored three touchdowns on runs of 11, 12 and 40 yards, and re- serve fullback Marvin Cobb ran for Right: Tackle Matt Mulholland and Guard Mitchell Johnston wait to lead the Pirates onto the field for the beginning of the Wake Forest game.

Cobb scored the afternoon’s first touchdown on a 34-yard jaunt and later broke lose for another on a 38-yard carry. Backs Theodore Sutton and Anthony Col- lins each ran for 66 yards. The victory left both teams with 3-3 records. The Pirates then had two weeks to prepare for their October 27 date with nationally-ranked North Carolina. A 47-yard field goal by Carolina’s kicker Jeff Hayes with 13 seconds re- maining in the game gave the Tar Heels a 24-24 tie with the upset-mind- ed Pirates. The last-minute comeback by the Heels was not the only one in this game that had almost all of the 49,700 fans in Kenan Stadium on the edge of their seats for much of the contest. Carolina held a 21-10 halftime lead on a 51-yard drive that began. with only 42 seconds remaining to play. The drive ended with a 18-yard touch- down pass from quarterback Matt Kupec to split end Jeff Gray. The Pi- rates wasted little time after play re- sumed before they narrowed Caroli- na’s lead on an 89-yard drive after a Kupec pass was intercepted by Willie Holley. Halfback Anthony Collins scored on a 21-yard run and Bill Lamm’s extra point cut the lead to 21- 17 with 7:26 remaining in the third quarter. The go-ahead touchdown was the culmination of a 92-yard drive that — _——* f™ AL YT ote opt e¢ J | wa. tas ee | : ; a —— oe , it i A y MIEN ERP LE ELL ES EO ALLIES CELA SL DIOR LENT LEP EIP IEA LTR ILE GOST LAE TOE!

Safety Ruffin McNeill recovered a Phil Farris fumble on the ECU 43- yard line, cutting short UNC’s come- back hopes. The Pirates could not sus- tain a drive and were forced to punt. The two teams exchanged punts again before Carolina’s final drive set up the tying field goal. After Hayes’ field goal, ECU easily recovered Carolina’s expected onside kick. With the ball on the UNC 41- yard line, Green attempted a pass to Vern Davenport in order to put the Pirates into field goal range. Green’s pass fell short, which forced Daven- port to try a 57-yard field goal. The kick fell short and left the game in a tie with both the players and the fans frustrated. The next game at Appalachian State, billed as an “offensive show” by coach Pat Dye, lived up to its heading as the Pirates accululated 544 yards total offense in their 38-21 victory over the Mountaineers. Halfback Anthony Collins scored three touchdowns and rushed for 122 yards to lead the Pirates to the hard- fought victory. Fullback Theodore Sutton rushed for a season-high 134 yards and added one touchdown of his own. “Usually you have to key on one back,” said Appalachian coach Jim Brakefield, “but today was not the case.” Aside from Collins and Sutton, Pirate halfback Sam Harrell and quar- terback Leander Green each rushed for over 50 yards. ECU scored early on a7-yard run by Collins with under five minutes gone in the first quarter. ASU got on the board with 2:21 remaining in the first half, when quarterback Steve Brown hit split end Rick Beasley with a 57- yard touchdown pass. Mark French’s extra point tied the score at seven. A 39-yard field goal by Bill Lamm gave ECU a 10-7 lead at the half. The Pirates used three long drives of 65, 75 and 89 yards in the second half to put the game on ice. For ASU, the passing attack was their most ef- fective weapon. Quarterback Steve Brown completed 16 of 27 passes for 277 yards. Split end Rick Beasley, the nation’s leading receiver going into the game, caught six of those passes for 159 yards and two touchdowns. Though he was obviously pleased with the outcome, Pat Dye seemed to dwell on the Appalachian offense as he spoke after the game. “I’d rather play North Carolina ten times than to play this bunch five times,” said Dye. “Their offense is awesome. I’m awful- ly glad to get out of here alive.” The Pirates then returned home to face winless Richmond and trounced the Spiders 52-10. The Spider’s win of the toss was their only advantage of the game as ECU scored on each of its Below: Linebacker Mike Brewington nails UNC quarterback Matt Kupec seconds after Kupec released a late fourth quarter pass. 169 Football ome BREET TE ranabmeees © — ujend \e) ©) Li.

Rich- mond’s only score of the half was a 42-yard field goal by Scott Schramme just as time ran out. Green added the first two touch- downs of the second half on runs of 87 and 16 yards.

Harold Blue added one more touchdown for the Pirates on a 3-yard burst late in the fourth quarter.

Leander Green tallied 285 of the team’s 600-yard total offensive performance. This perfermance was a far cry from the opening minutes of the game, when North Texas State provided most of the fireworks. ECU fumbled on its first two possessions, allowing the Mean Green to score the first touchdown of the game. The Pi- rates answered with a 1-yard plunge by Anthony Collins to tie the score at 7. The teams then traded touchdowns, with ECU holding a 14-13 lead. After the Texans missed a field goal attempt, Theodore Sutton raced for 85 yards in 2 plays, giving the Pirates another touchdown and a 21-13 lead. After a touchdown-saving tackle by defensive end George Crump and a three-play goal line stand by the ECU defense, North Texas State settled for a 28-yard field goal by Mike Smith. From that point it was all East Caroli- na. In the second half, the Pirate de- fense held North Texas to a scoreless 88 yards total offense, while the explo- sive ECU offense rolled up the yards and the points. After Collins scored on a 5-yard run, the Green to Wash- ington Express added the final two touchdowns of the game. This win was the Pirates’ third straight and the fifth in the last six starts. The 600-yard offensive effort put the team among the national lead- ers in total offense. The team travelled to Williams- burg, Virginia, to play William and Mary in the final game of the season. It was a day to rewrite the record books at ECU, as Leander Green sur- passed the single season total offense mark set by Carl Summerell in 1972 and Anthony Collins became the fifth player in the school’s history to rush for over 1000 yards in one season. The first half saw a field goal by Bill Lamm and touchdowns by Sam Har- rell and Collins. The Indians were held scoreless, and the Pirates took a 17-0 halftime lead into the locker room. Collins scored his second touchdown of the game after Willie Holley recovered an Indian fumble at the ECU 49-yard line. Collins’ second touchdown capped a penalty-ridden 51-yard drive after Willie Holley recovered an Indian fumble on the ECU 49-yard line. The Indians, facing a reserve defensive unit, scored their first points on a 15- 171 Football tic AARNE SHA Ves Se That Kind Of Football .... Fe as Se a yard run by wide reveiver Mike Bur- gess.

The Pirates were undefeated in their ) last 7 games, with only a tie of Gator Bowl-bound North Carolina blemish- | ing a perfect record.

Dye made his an- nouncement in a hastily called press conference at Scales Field House. He said at the time that he had known for some time he would be leaving ECU. Dye later revealed that internal problems had been the reason for his resignation. Dye had had several con- flicts in the past with athletic director Bill Cain, and it was these that led to his departure. Two unrelated inci- dents verified Dye’s belief that he should leave. Cain’s cutting of Dye’s requested 1978 budget without his knowledge led to the budget over-run of $16,000 by the end of the season. This forced Dye to apply for a person- al loan to make up the difference, for which he was later reimbursed. The other incident involved the transfer of quarterback Aaron Stewart to Duke University. Stewart's request for re- lease from ECU was firmly debated by Dye, who did not want him running the ECU offense against Duke throughout the preseason when ECU was first on Duke’s schedule. But Cain nevertheless granted Stewart's request, with the approval of Chancel- lor Thomas Brewer. Dye said of the apparent dispute, “1 hate to leave in such a swirl of contro- versy. You would think this thing was a bitter controversy, but it’s not. Sure there were disagreements, but there were the good times too. I’ve had a tremendous amount of fun coaching at ECU,” he continued, “probably more than I will have anywhere else. Everybody here is so hungry — the players, the students and fans — to win. It’s a great feeling to go to places like Carolina as underdogs, yet know- ing that your people really believe that you're going to win.” Dye’s success at ECU had been phe- nomenal. Many students looked upon him as a “living legend.” His record over his six-year tenure was 48-18-1. Dye later accepted the head coach- ing position at the University of Wyo- ming. The Cowboy's program was supposedly on the rise, with millions of dollars being pumped into it by supporters. Dye’s replacement was announced by Chancellor Brewer on December 8. Ed Emory, who had spent the last two seasons as a defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator at Georgia Tech, was named to fill the position. Emory’s being an alumnus of East Carolina reportedly weighted heavily in the final decision between him and Pirate assistant Dick Kupec. Emory said that he planned to con- tinue to use the wishbone offense which led to the Pirates being ranked first nationally in rushing, second in total offense and third in scoring of- fense in 1979. “It’s a helluva chal- lenge,” he said, referring to the Pi- rates’ heavy loss of players through graduation, the tough 1980 schedule and the fact that the recruiting efforts were behind after Dye’s departure. 173 Football 174 Sports Cheering at all football and the home basketball games, ECU cheerleaders saw the teams finish 7-3-1 and 16-11 respectively. They definitely had Something To “Hey, Hey, EC, You look so good to me!” was a familiar cry that was heard at football and basketball games alike. Ten energetic guys and girls on the ECU Cheerleading squad not only led the fans in cheering but performed other activities as well. The guys and girls that gave much of their time and support to Pirate sports were Mike Aman, Asst. Head, 2nd Semester; Dusty Darden, Tom Earnhardt, Kennon Privette, Steve Gross, Rhonda Swaim, Head, 2nd Se- mester; Donna Pritchard, Asst. Head, Ist Semester; Page Stout, Dede Ward, and Joanne Paul. Dave Petrilyak, head cheerleader for the squad, received the senior plaque for the 1979-80 year. The squad’s activities included trav- eling over the eastern part of the state judging high school cheerleading pro- grams and participating in the open- ing of the Carolina East Mall and oth- er events at area malls. They spon- sored clinics and workshops as well as performed numerous public relations functions. One activity that the Pirates took part in was cheering at a basketball game between Caswell and Murdoch Centers on Palm Sunday. When the Murdoch team was delayed in arriv- Cheer About ing, the guys on the ECU squad filled in for them and got the game started. The proceeds went towards the con- struction of chapels at each of the four institutions for the mentally retarded. The cheerleaders returned to cam- pus a week before classes convened in the fall and began extensive work ses- sions preparing for the opening foot- ball game and the rest of the year. Since they did not have a budget for pre-school activities, they were re- sponsible for their own expenses. Last year the SGA and Mendenhall Stu- dent Center dropped their support of the cheerleaders. Support from the Athletic Department helped some but was not enough to cover the expenses for the year. Plans are to construct a platform similar to those found in the stadiums of ACC schools on the student side of Ficklen Stadium. This will enable the squad to better coordinate their activi- ties with the band and strengthen their contact with the student body.

The program was dropped for a short time during 1977, but several students and other in- volved people helped to have soccer reinstated in the athletic program. }_ Smith was hired in June, 1977, and immediately started looking for re- cruits for the upcoming season. His program that year consisted of simply walking around campus looking for guys who looked like they might be able to run for five minutes without becoming exhausted. Since that time, even though it is still considered young, the team has grown in strength and membership. The past season was much im- proved in spite of injuries which pla- gued the team. Six of Smith’s starters were out for several games, but the team was still able to hold its own against some of the top teams in the South. Smith considers soccer one of the most inexpensive sports in the athle- tic program. “All the guys ask for is a field, a ball and cleats,” he said. The team’s two outstanding players this season were seniors Phil Martin and Jeff Karpovich. The team’s most outstanding games were against UNC which was ranked number 4 in the South. The first time the team played against Carolina it lost 2-1, but Smith felt the two teams had played an even match. The next time the teams met the score was once again a 2-1 loss for ECU, but only after going into over- time and playing the final 14 minutes of the game one man down. Smith summed up the season by saying that teamwork is the big ele- ment for a successful game of soccer. “Working together is what it is all about,” he concluded.” eget nc GE REI RPT SS RE RR sere AD PLN PRETO IEG EMT LL AEN IED LTR TILE AEDES LOCC LAT NBN ALL SONI BERS NONI TTT Mor apna nN HIMBA bOI AP MARNE SOMES RADI 45D Sa a vakdayures Se ee ee Tee. ee — ‘ okt Left: Stan Griff and Andy Roman watch as co- captain Chris Solt battles NC State for the ball.

The Pirate women lost only to Pfeiffer College, which was ranked seventh in the nation. Coach Laurie Arrants attributed the disappointing record to the teams’ in- ability to “jell.” Arrants relied heavily Left: The number one scorer for the team, Sue Jones, moves into position to score against High Point College late in the game. Below: Play resumes as the Lady Bucs come out of a penalty corner against Pfeiffer College. on out-of-state women to compose the team because most high schools in North Carolina do not have field hockey programs, and the out-of-state women were more exposed to the techniques of the game. Key players for the ECU team were Kathy Zwigard, who was the number two scorer and was number one in assists, and Sue Jones, who has been the number one scorer for the last three seasons. The Deep South Tour- nament at the end of the season pro- duced three ECU players on its All- Star list. Dana Salmons and Drew Kennedy were named to the defensive team, while Carol Belcher was chosen for the offensive team. The team was especially pleased with its showing in the tournament as their play finally began to resemble their successes in practice. Also the Talented, Definitely Competitive women played in the tournament without their coach. They felt they had to prove to themselves that they could win even in their coach’s ab- sence. Graduate assistant Anne Holmes guided the women to their second place finish. Since field hockey is such a fast- paced game, the perspective team members had to like to run as well as to have the desire to try something new. Arrants got their promise to give the sport a two week trial in which they could get the feel of the game. After that time those who were still interested in the sport played. Despite the haphazard method of selecting players and the lack of qualified play- ers from North Carolina Arrants managed to field a team comparable to most of their opposition.

In order to upgrade their style of play and to compete with teams in Division I such as NC State, UNC and Duke, the team had to beef up their schedule. This exposed them to tougher competition then they were used to in the past. The year was also one of transition for the team. The tougher schedule took its toll on them in the loss col- umn. Coach Alita Dillon described the year as an “up and down season.” The team’s greatest fault was its in- consistent play. During the games only two or three players were consis- tent and the opposing teams took ad- vantage of the weak spots. “Team consistency, not individual consisten- cy, is what counts,” stated Dillon. The team went to the University of Maryland Tournament seeded third, but the tournament jinx that it has had for the past three years prevailed. Coach Dillon explained that no matter how well the team did during the sea- son it seemed to get in a rut when it went to a tournament. During the tournament the team captured the consolation game and felt that they had played their best. The team was also runner-up in their own ECU In- vitational Tournament. According to Dillon one of the most impressive players of the season was setter Lavonda Duncan. Sharon Perry was commended for her play as a mid- dle court hitter/blocker. The most im- proved player for the season was freshman Mitzi Davis. Mitzi, accord- ing to Dillon, did not possess a strong volleyball background, but her desire and natural athletic ability enabled her to excell during the season.

The stormy, two-year tenure of Larry Gillman had just come to an end. The Dave Odom era began. Odom, named to replace Gillman in March, 1979, came to the Pirates from Wake Forest, where he served three years as an assistant to Deacon head coach Carl Tacy. The obstacles ahead of Odom were many as he looked to his first season as a Pirate. First, there was the strug- gle to make sure that all his players were academically eligible. Many of the returning Pirates had practically ignored academics under Gillman. Odom required all of them to attend summer school. Miraculously, every one of the players met their require- ments and joined the squad when practice began. That is, with one big exception. Al Tyson, a 6-foot-11 sophomore center, had met the requirements set forth by the NCAA and the university, but did not meet Odom’s personal require- ments. The Winterville native was suspended by his coach until he reached those requirements. Tyson never got around to doing so, and he left the team and school in late Octo- ber. Eventually, Tyson transferred to Virginia Commonwealth. Tyson was the center of another of Odom’s biggest headaches as well. His recruitment by Larry Gillman led to charges of violations of NCAA reg- ulations, which were filed by the Uni- versity of Mississippi. The allegations resulted in the ECU program being placed on one year’s probation by the NCAA. Odom commented that “We were concerned about the probation and the effect it would have on our entire program, but especially on our seniors, who have played under such a cloud of controversy in the past. But we approached it from a positive standpoint. We played every game as though it was a post-season tourna- ment game, and it spurred us to a bet- ter record.” At the same time, Odom was with- out a center. Because of Tyson’s de- parture, the first-year mentor was forced to play natural forwards at the center position throughout the sea- son. With height a big enemy and exper- ience another, things did not look so good for the Pirates when they began their season in the Richmond Spider Classic in November. Gone from the 1978-79 team was star guard Oliver Mack, who had been drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA. Also missing was 6-9 center Greg Corne- lius, who had moved on to play pro ball in France. Returning, though, was George Maynor, a 6-3 guard who had been drafted by the NBA’s Chicago Bulls as a “future” the previous year. What Odom and his team did in ‘79-80 defied reality. For the first time since 1975, a Pirate team finished with a winning season. The 16-11 ECU re- cord came as a shock to supporters and enemies alike. Actually, the mark could have been better had it not been for some poor free throw shooting in narrow losses. The season began in the Spider Classic. Odom had just put the Pirates through rigorous pre-season drills. The drills had been precise and thor- ough, so thorough that the new coach had not been able to accomplish all he had wanted to before the season be- gan. “We're a little behind the other teams right now,” Odom said at the time, “because we’ve worked so hard on fundamentals. It will pay off for us in the end, though, that we spent all this time early on the basics.” In the opening round of the tourna- ment, the Pirates faced Virginia Com- monwealth, a team that would eventu- ally reach the NCAA Tournament and lose there to semi-finalist Iowa. The game with the Rams was nip- and-tuck all the way, as both teams exchanged leads. With Herb Krusen hot from the outside, it looked as though the Pirates would pull it off until the heady play of Ram forward Danny Kottack brought his team back and spoiled the dubut of Odom, 72-71. The following night the Pirates took on little-known West Virginia Tech in the consolation game of the Classic. George Maynor’s 23 points and some strong rebounding from Frank Hobson gave the Pirates a 92-79 victory, as Odom returned home from his first road trip with an even 1-1 slate. The eyes of Pirate fans then focused on the nation’s number one ranked team, Duke. Following narrow wins over Lynchburg and Maine, the Pi- rates prepared for their December 8 meeting with the Blue Devils in Ca- meron Indoor Stadium. “This is no different than any other game,” Odom said, fooling only himself. “Sure we'd like to do well, even win it, but our season is not lost if we don’t.” The game began with the Devils jumping to a fast ten-point advantage. Things looked on the downside for the Pirates. Yet, after relaxing in the frenzy of an ACC gym, the Pirates soon settled down and took the lead. Only a last second shot by freshman Chip Engelland at the buzzer prevent- ed the Pirates from going into the dressing room at halftime with a lead. The 25-footer tied the score at inter- Mission, 36-36. Duke came out smoking in the sec- ond half, playing perhaps as impres- sively as they would all season behind the scoring and rebounding of center Mike Gminski, forward Gene Banks and guard Vince Taylor. Gminski, a consensus All-Ameri- can at season’s end, dominated play throughout, finishing as the game’s leading scorer with 26 points. Following the confidence-building loss at Duke, the Pirates returned home to face Division II opponent South Carolina-Aiken. ECU quickly made mockery of the small school with a 96-64 thrashing behind Herb Gray’s 17 points and 11 rebounds. A 61-58 win over James Madison at home on December 15 set up a big showdown with Old Dominion on the 18th. The Monarchs were one of six ECU opponents who went on to post- Right: Senior George Maynor, drafted by the Chicago Bulls last year as a future, was instru- mental in leading the Pirates to their 16-11 re- cord.

The Pirates jumped out to a quick 13-point first half lead and it looked as though things were set for an upset. ODU’s dynamic duo, Ronnie Valen- tine and Ronnie McAdoo, had been stifled in the opening half. The second half, though, was a different matter as McAdoo and Valentine went on a rampage in leading the Monarchs to a 70-65 win before a Minges Coliseum crowd of more than 4,000. Following the loss to the Monarchs, the Pirates headed west to compete in the Wolfpack Classic in Reno, Ne- vada. Disappointment and poor play was the word from Nevada, said Odom following the tournament. “We did not play well at all in either game out there,” he claimed. “We started off each one very sloppily but did make comebacks in both cases. It’s just a shame we couldn't have played 40 minutes in both contests.” The Pirates’ first-round opponent in the tourney was Northern Arizona. ECU fell behind fast, trailing by 16 late in the first half. A second half comeback, sparked by Herb Krusen’s shooting, brought the Pirates back, though, and set up a most bizarre end- forfeit the game later in the season due to an ineligible player. Following the disappointing west- ern voyage, the Pirates took two weeks off before traveling to Raleigh to face ACC stalwart NC State. The January 2 matchup was a night for George Maynor to remember. The Pi- rates’ senior guard finished with 23 points and kept the Pirates close most of the way before a late Wolfpack surge gave them a 83-68 win in a game that was closer than the final score indicated. Following a 52-51 homecourt victo- ry over UNC-Asheville, ECU took its 7-5 record to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to face national power Oral Roberts. The Pi- rates’ performance there is something that Odom loved and hated to talk about. ECU was in command of the game for the first 38 minutes, leading most all the way. An early 11-point lead dwindled away, though, mainly because the Pirates missed each of their last eight one-and-one free throw opportunities. Despite the missed free throws, the Pirates held an 82-81 lead in the clos- ing seconds. Heavily guarded by ECU’s Herb Gray, ORU star forward Calvin Garrett put up a desperation shot with two seconds remaining. Garrett’s shot missed the entire goal and fell into the waiting arms of ORU’s Antonio Martin, who was fouled at the buzzer by Maynor. Mar- tin then calmly connected on both of his free throw attempts, both coming with no time remaining on the score- board clock, to give his team an 83-82 win. Sar tos ASHER ing. Down 62-60 with less than a minute remaining, the Pirates chased North- ern Arizona in hopes of some sort of steal or mistake. They got just that when UNA was called for a five sec- ond violation, setting up a jump ball. ECU had a big height advantage on the jump and controlled the tap only to have it stolen away by UNA. With 15 seconds remaining, ECU fouled and watched the front end of a one- ik and-one fall short. UNA, though, con- trolled the rebound and was again fouled. Ironically, the same thing hap- pened again as UNA missed the free throw only to recover it again. Once again the Pirates fouled Snly to see two shots go in this time, sealing a 64- 60 UNA victory. In the tourney’s consolation game, the Pirates lost one that they would "1 later “win.” Kent State came out on top of a 73-72 decision, but had to ATTEN ee LE TTT: Left: Guard Tony Byles loses a jump ball to James Madison University.

A home vi- tory over Atlantic Christian followed two days later. Fatigue set in on the team when they traveled to James Madison to play their sixth game in a 12-day peri- od. The quite tired ECU team fell be- hind early but rallied behind Mike Gibson. Still, they just couldn’t make it all the way back, and suffered a 63- 52 defeat, dropping their record to 9-7. Odom’s comments after the contest included a “thank you” to the ECU schedule as a one-week layoff was ahead. An impressive win over Baptist followed the layoff. George Maynor’s 24 points led the way in ECU’s 90-67 victory. Next on the ECU agenda was the big buildup and showdown. UNC- Wilmington, a very impressive team that is a natural Pirate rival, was to invade Minges Coliseum on January 26. The encounter had Odom excited, “It'll be the best game played in North Carolina on that day,’ Odom pro- claimed. “The game presents a giant challenge for us. Wilmington is im- pressive and will be one of the top teams we'll play all year. In addition, I consider them our major rival along with Old Dominion.” Minges Coliseum was loaded for the occasion, as a crowd of over 5,000 turned out to watch the regional bat- tle. The Pirates were definitely spurred on by the large turnout. ECU led most of the way and dominated after UNC-W point guard and team leader Barry Taylor went down with an injury mid-way through the sec- ond half. Maynor tallied 21 points in the impressive 66-54 ECU win. What was ahead of the Pirates fol- lowing the Wilmington contest made the previous portion of the schedule look simple. Road trips to Detroit, South Carolina and Maryland and home dates with Illinois State and Delaware State were all scheduled in a 12-day span. “If we come out of this alive,” Odom lamented, “I'll be very happy. I'll probably jump for joy.” Luckily for Odom and the Pirates, this spell of games came at just the 185 Mens’ Basketbal] ee ee ere Off Probation .... right time. ECU was playing its best ball of the season. The defense was reaching the level of effectiveness that Odom had predicted at the outset of the season. Also, Maynor and Krusen were shooting the lights out from the outside. The trip to Detroit reminded many of the one to Oral Roberts. The Pirates jumped to a quick 11-point lead and led at the half by six, 34-28. ECU re- mained in control in the second half until Herb Gray fouled out with five minutes remaining. The 6-8 defensive specialist had held the Titans’ star, Earl Cureton, in check for much of the contest. With Gray out, though, Cure- ton took over and led Detroit to a 69- 65 come-from-behind victory. A heavy snowstorm delayed by one day the Pirates’ departure to South Carolina. The team had to leave Greenville on the day of the game, February 7, then had to play and re- turn that same evening. Fatigue surely entered Odom’s mind. There was no need for worry, though, as the Pirates came out stormin’ in Columbia. George Maynor scored 28 points as ECU pulled off a shocking 86-84 upset over the Gamecocks and their retiring head coach, Frank McGuire. The Pirates made an_ incredible comeback in the contest, trailing 55- 42 with 17:30 remaining. The USC lead was cut to ten when, at the 14:52 mark, Odom signaled for a timeout. The strategy he then planned proved to be the undoing of the Gamecocks. Following the timeout, ECU came out in a pressing, trapping defense that caught the Gamecocks off guard. With the sticky defense leading the way, ECU outscored USC 17-5 in the next six minutes to take a 64-62 lead on a Herb Krusen jumper. ECU never trailed after Krusen’s bucket, but had to capitalize on free throw opportunities to assure the up- set. Of his strategy, Odom said he had been waiting to use it all night. “I didn’t want to go to it too early,” he said. “If we showed it to them in the first half, they would have worked on it at halftime.” Above left: Senior forward Herb Krusen, dubbed “Radar” by his teammates for his shooting ability, always posed an offensive threat as he connected consistently from the outside throughout the season.

Right: Kyle Powers, one of five seniors, started at forward against Campbell University. De- spite the teams’ lackluster performance, the Pi- rates edged the Camels, 53-52.

An impressive IIli- nois State team invaded Minges Coli- seum on February 9 with a shot at a NCAA playoff bid but left with big doubts. Again the Pirates had to rally to pull off an upset. Down by eight, 54-46, with eight minutes remaining, the Pirates fought back and tied the score at the 1:44 mark. ECU then surged ahead and held on for a 70-67 win. The loss was a big enough blow for ISU, but the trip to Greenville was doubly costly because of an injury suffered to 7-foot center Joe Galvin in the second half of the contest. Galvin played no more the remainder of the season as the Red- birds had to settle for an NIT bid in- stead of one from the NCAA. Two nights following the win over ISU, the Pirates reached a milestone by defeating Delaware State 89-79, giving them a 14-8 record and assur- ing them of being the first ECU team since 1975 to have a winning record. Three seniors led the way in the win as Maynor tallied 27 points and Kru- sen and Gray added 24 and 17, respec- tively. “This is what we’ve been working for all season long,” commented Odom after the game. “It means so much for our seniors to go out on a winning team. They’ve been through so much since they’ve been here.” The ensuing trip to seventh-ranked Maryland proved to be a satisfying, yet disappointing experience for the Pirates. ECU gave the ACC-leading Terrapins all they could handle for 40 minutes. The Pirates actually had a chance to narrow a Maryland lead to four in the final two minutes before a controversial charging call on ECU guard Tony Byles killed any upset possibilities. Maynor again was spec- tacular as he tallied 27 points. Gray did a super job in holding ACC Player of the Year Albert King to a sub-par performance, though the Terps won 85-72. Two more losses followed the Maryland game. A rematch with UNC-W proved too much for the emotionally drained Pirates as they fell 71-62. A road trip to Old Domin- Podeszwa ion was equally frustrating as the fired-up Monarchs with Ronnie Val- entine playing his final home game dominated, coming out on top 89-75 in a game that was not as close as the final score indicated. Following the three-game road los- ing skein, the Pirates returned home and prepared for a two-game season finale. The duo of contests was to be the final time that seniors Gray, Maynor, Krusen, Kyle Powers and Frank Hobson would play in a Pirate uniform; and at Minges Coliseum. Odom used this as an emotional edge in preparing his team in an attempt to break the three-game drought. The first game, with Campbell, was unimpressive. Neither team played as if it had any desire to win. The Pirates played worse than they had in the pre- vious losses, but came out on top, 53- 2. Due to the upsetting performance against Campbell, there was an aura of worry among the Pirate coaches as they prepared the team for the season finale against Wisconsin-Milwaukee. The five seniors were scheduled to start and were told that going out with an impressive performance, and a win, was essential. As it turned out, the Pirates got both. UWM brought an extremely tal- ented squad to Greenville that played the Pirates to the end in an exciting 96-86 ECU win. The seniors were spectacular. Maynor scored a career-high 30 points, including an astonishing 11 in the five-minute overtime period. “I just kept moving and getting the ball,” Maynor said. “I had that feel- ing. I was going to do anything I could to go out a winner.” So, evident- ly, was Herb Gray. “I’d have to say this is my best game ever,” Gray said. “It feels good to go out in style.” “Go out in style” is just what the five seniors did. “We've set a founda- tion to build upon this season,” Odom said. “We've begun a winning tradition at East Carolina. We've had a super season, but we can’t sit still. We must try to bring some guys in to make up for the loss of our seniors. We had a great year. But this is a be- ginning for us ... not an end.” Left: Junior college transfer Michael Gibson provided needed help with rebounding and de- fense. Tenacious to defend, Gibson proved to be an offensive threat as well. Right: Herb Gray returned to the starting lineup after missing the second semester of 1979.

Besides having two practice sessions a day coupled with additional running, Steers matmen were re- quired to spend time studying. With the exception of Joyner and Butch Revils, ranked 8th and 12th in the nation respectively, the remainder of the squad consisted of strong possi- bilities. Coach Steers gave his reserved yet optimistic opinion at the begin- ning of the season, “They are aggres- in the match.

ECU’s mens’ team finished the season with a 5-3 record in Division I while the women’s team finished with their best record ever of 4-5 in Division II. The mens’ season was highlighted by a victory over highly ranked South Carolina. This was enhanced by the fact that freshmen and sophomores composed 75% of the team. In post season action the team came in third at the Eastern Intercollegiate Division I Championships against sixteen teams despite having to forfeit the diving competition. Several indivi- duals came away from the Regionals with victories. Senior Kelly Hopkins, a transfer from Colgate, captured the 100 meter breaststroke. Hopkins also broke two varsity records at the NCAA Championships in the 100 and 200 breast. Senior Ted Nieman and Junior Jack Clowar won the 200 free- style and the 100 freestyle respective- ly. In addition, Coach Sharf was voted Coach of the Year along with the coaches of the University of Pitts- burgh and West Virginia. Pitt and West Virginia finished first and sec- ond at the Eastern Regionals.

But the team’s 21-10 record marked the first time an ECU womens’ basketball team had won 20 games or more. Andruzzi pointed to her team’s youth as the rea- son for her caution. She had had an excellent recruiting year, signing a lot of talent. But what her players had in talent they lacked in experience. Freshmen and sophomores made up three-fourths of the team. This was compounded by a schedule that in- cluded nationally ranked opponents such as Old Dominion, North Caroli- na State, St. John’s, South Carolina, and North Carolina. Things were not all bad however, as returning veterans included Lydia Rountree, junior transfer Kathy Riley and all-American candidate Rosie Thompson, who was fast establishing herself as the greatest basketball play- er in East Carolina’s history. Round- ing out Andruzzi’s veterans were re- turning center Marcia Girven and transfer guard Laurie Sikes. The team opened their season on November 17 with an 81-51 victory over William and Mary at Minges Coliseum. With the team’s height a problem and a lack of experienced depth another, Andruzzi commented, “I didn’t know what to expect for the opening game with so many new peo- ple, but this was my first opening win in four years of coaching. It feels good to finally be 1-0.” Senior Rosie Thompson led the scoring with 22 points and 11 rebounds, while fresh- man Mary Denkler sparked the Pirate defense with 15 rebounds. The team then traveled to New York and came home with 2 wins in as many days. Rosie Thompson scored 19 points to lead the Pirates to an 83-71 upset of St. John’s. The Pi- rates went to the locker room at half- time with a 41-27 lead and guards Kathy Riley and Laurie Sikes scored a total of 33 points to keep the game out of St. John’s reach. The next day the team romped past Manhattan College, winning the game by 66 points. Thompson and Kathy Riley led the Pirate scoring with 18 points each. The two, along with guard Lydia Rountree who scored 16, were instrumental in hold- ing Manhattan to just five field goals in the second half of the game. With this confidence-building 98- 32 win and the victory over St. John’s the day before, the Pirates brought a 3-0 record home to face the Seahawks of UNC-Wilmington. Although the team got off to a slug- gish start, they spurted to an early ten point lead and were never threatened for the rest of the game. After the slow beginning, the Pirates built a 14-point lead halfway through the first period, due to the shooting of Riley, Thomp- son and Rountree, each of whom ad- ded six points in the early going. The Pirates extended their lead to 35 points late in the second half before ending the game with a 32-point mar- gin. The 86-54 win was the team’s fourth against no defeats. Coach An- druzzi commented, “against Manhat- tan and St. John’s we played better defense and we didn’t foul as much. We played good fundamental basket- ball up there, but we’re certainly pleased with this win. I look at to- night as a learning experience. I saw a lot of things we’re going to work on in the next few days.” The team suffered its first defeat of the season by dropping its next game to Duke in a heartbreaking upset, 76- 75. Rosie Thompson tallied 29 points and Lydia Rountree added 26, but it was not enough to secure the victory for the Pirates. ECU trailed 45-40 at the half, but the inside shooting of Thompson along with strong outside action from Rountree enabled the Pirates to take a 56-55 lead with 12:12 remaining in the 79 ous game. The lead then changed hands several times with the Pirates captur- ing it with :13 remaining in the con- test on two free throws by Rosie Thompson. Duke point guard Patti Thomasson took the ensuing inbounds play and was fouled on a layup attempt by ECU’s Laurie Sikes. Thomasson’s two free throws sealed the 76-75 victory for the Blue Devils. The Pirates then returned home to pound the Duchesses of James Madi- son University 72-48. Kathy Riley scored 26 points and Rosie Thompson added 16 and a season-high 23 re- bounds to lead ECU to the 24-point victory. The team jumped to a 21-point lead with less than ten minutes gone in the game and were able to take a lead into the locker room at the half despite a seven-minute dry spell in which they tallied no points. “I wasn’t worried about the dry spell,” said Andruzzi. “After the Duke game last Saturday we concentrated on defense all week. We didn’t even touch offense until Thursday and then only for about 45 minutes. This is probably the best game of the season for us, certainly the best defensively. We knew that we could be a good team on defense.” Two days later the Pirates defeated East Tennessee State 73-63 in the first game of a doubleheader at Minges. The team struggled with the Bucca- neers until the final nine minutes of the game, when freshman Mary Denkler came off the bench to pace the team to the victory. Over the final eight and a half minutes she scored 17 of the team’s 22 points and pulled in eight rebounds. “Denkler is a great offensive player, and she provided the spark when we needed it,” coach An- druzzi said.

The victo- ry moved the Pirates to a 6-1 record, on which Andruzzi commented, “J really didn’t think we’d have this kind of record right now. We've beaten some good teams.” After posting a 78-57 victory over Campbell University on December 15, the team traveled to Chapel Hill for the North Carolina Christmas Tour- nament. Led by Rosie Thompson’s 32 points and 11 rebounds, the Pirates defeated Stanford, 88-72 in the tour- ney’s opening round. With 15:40 re- maining in the game, Thompson ad- ded a layup that put the Pirates ahead for the first time in the afternoon, 48- 47. Lydia Rountree and Kathy Riley’s hot shooting built an 18-point lead for the Pirates before a Stanford field goal cut the final margin to 16. The semifinal matchup between ECU and powerhouse Clemson saw the Pirates defeated for only the sec- ond time this season as the Tigers out- lasted them 83-78. Mary Denkler was the top scorer for the evening with 27 points. Both Thompson and Riley were hampered with injuries during the game, as Clemson posted a 12- point lead before ECU’s trapping zone defense pulled them back within 5. Coach Andruzzi remarked, “It was not a bad loss because we didn’t give it to them. Clemson is good and they earned what they got.” The consolation game with Mercer was a milestone for Rosie Thompson and another defeat for the team. Thompson grabbed her 1,000th career rebound early in the first half and fol- lowed minutes with her 2,000th career point, as the Pirates fell to Mercer 81- 66. ECU led by ten at the half, but a second-half comeback by Mercer had the Pirates fighting to maintain their lead. Mary Denkler hit a bucket with ten minutes left in the game to give the team a 55-53 edge, but Mercer then pumped in ten straight points to in- sure their victory. A three game road slate after a short Christmas break provided the next three victories for the Pirates. Hun- tington, West Virginia, was the site of the team’s first win, a 63-59 defeat of Marshall. Leading by as many as 13 points in the first half, the Pirates fought off a second period rally by Marshall to claim the win. Repeated turnovers by the Pirates allowed the home team to narrow the margin to 60-57 with 1:16 remaining in the game. Pirate Laurie Sikes hit on a three-point play and Marshall forward Becky Williams hit her only field goal of the game to es- tablish the final score. The second stop on the road swing added a win over West Virginia Uni- versity. Kathy Riley’s first half per- formance and Rosie Thompson’s 19 point second half led the Pirates to a 67-56 win over the Mountaineers.

The Mountaineers worked down to a 61-51 deficit but came no closer as the Pirates cruised to their tenth win against three losses. Virginia Tech was the next victim of the Pirates as Kathy Riley pumped in a game-high 25 points and Lydia Rountree added 16 to the Pirates’ win. Point guard Laurie Sikes led the ECU fast break, which allowed the Pirates to take a 43-20 halftime lead. A second half slump for the Pirates was ended by Mary Denkler, who quickly scored eight points. Rosie Thompson netted 11 and grabbed 13 rebounds to seal the Gobblers’ fate. The Clemson Invitational Tourna- ment was the next stop for the Pirates. In the opening round, Mississippi University for Women claimed a 70- 69 squeaker on a field goal by Sue Johnson with four seconds remaining in the game. East Carolina took its biggest lead of the night, 34-21, with one minute to go before halftime. Lydia Rountree stepped out of bounds under pressure with 20 seconds left to set up Mississippi's winning score. The Pirates had one final chance after Laurie Sikes was fouled with one sec- ond reamining, but Mississippi had committed only four team fouls and Rountree’s desperation shot on the in- bounds play was blocked. After being upset in the opening round of the tournament, the Pirates defeated James Madison 93-68 to take third place honors. Rosie Thompson and Kathy Riley paced the team to the win, scoring 29 and 23 points, respec- tively. Riley came alive in the second half, scoring 19 of her 23 points as the ECU fast break swamped the Duch- esses. Riley and Thompson were awarded all-tournament honors for their per- formances during the event. A partisan crowd of 700 people and 60 cowbells was on hand for the Pi- rate’s next game, this one a NCAIAW Division I contest in Minges against North Carolina. But the clanging in the stands was not the only thing Carolina had to remember this game with ECU by, as Kathy Riley’s game- high 32 points led the Pirates to a 71- 68 victory over the Tar Heels. Left: Rosie Thompson, ECU’s all-time leading scorer, grabs one of her 12 rebounds against Florida State. Thompson led the defense along with center Marcia Girven, and scored four points as the team posted their 15th win of the season. Right: Junior forward Kathy Riley shoots for two of her 12 points against South Carolina, a game that marked the team’s sixth defeat of the year. The Gamecocks won 97-54. The score was tied 34-all at the half, as were the teams’ shooting stats. Both teams hit 15 of 39 from the floor and four of seven from the free throw line. The second half opened identically to the first, as the score was tied five times before ECU snatched the lead for good at 46-44. The Pirates gained a 65-58 lead six minutes later, due mostly to nine points by Riley. From there, ECU hit six of nine free throws, four of which were added by Riley. UNC could get no closer than three points in the last ten minutes of the game. ECU’s coach Cathy Andruzzi com- mented after the game, “This is the greatest victory we’ve had since I’ve been at East Carolina. I felt we were in control of the game all along.” UNC coach Jennifer Alley added, “We got an education in the fast break tonight. They ran it beautifully. We knew they could run it, but we thought we could control it better than we did. But we didn’t.” Three days later, the Pirates added another victory to their record in the form of a 70-53 whipping of Appala- chian State. Once again, Kathy Riley led all scorers with 19, followed by Lydia Rountree with 18 and Rosie Thompson with 16. The Pirates led by 17 less than three minutes into the second half, but an ECU drought and the hot shooting of ASU’s Tiana McEntire pulled the Mountaineers within striking dis- tance with 12:18 remaining in the game. Five successive turnovers by the Mountaineers crushed ASU’s comeback hopes as the Pirates hung on to claim their 14th win against four Sloan 197 Womens’ Basketball 198 Sports **Tremendous’’ ... defeats. The team then traveled to Norfolk to face the number two ranked Mon- archs of Old Dominion. ODU’s over- whelming height advantage proved to be the big difference in the game as the Pirates fell 112 to 77. Old Dominion scored the first 16 points of the game and led by as many as 20 during the first half. ECU cut the lead to 16 at the half and to as little as ten during the second half but the dominance of the Monarchs’ 6’8” Anne Donovan and 6’5” Inge Nissen proved too much. Lydia Rountree and Laurie Sikes were the high scorers for the Pirates with 23 and 22 points, respectively. Rosie Thompson tallied 13 and Kathy Riley added 11 to the Pirate effort. Coach Andruzzi was pleased with her teams’ performance despite their loss. “I think we shocked the people at Old Dominion. They didn’t think we were that good coming in. But in talk- ing with their coaches and the media up there they now feel that we’re the best team they’ve played so far. We scored more points than any team has scored against them all season.” The Pirates returned home to Minges and struggled to pull out a 69- 61 win over the Seminoles of Florida State. Sikes and Riley combined for an 18-6 Pirate lead in the early minutes of the game and it appeared Florida State was out of the contest. But the vistors cut the margin to 35-31 at the half and tied the score at 37 early in the second period. Riley and Sikes again ignited the ECU offense by adding 16 second half points a piece, while Thompson and center Marcia Girven paced the de- fense with 12 rebounds. A trip to Columbia two days later added the Pirates’ sixth loss of the sea- son. The Gamecocks of South Caroli- na defeated ECU 97-54 in a poorly played game filled with poor sports- manship on the part of the home team. USC jumped out to an early lead, which the Pirates cut to 31-22 at the 6:38 mark, but they never came any closer to the nationally-ranked Game- cocks. South Carolina outrebounded the Pirates but the key to their win was their 50.7 percent shooting while ECU managed to hit only 29 percent of its shots. “We saw they were just out there trying to hurt us in the late stages of the game,” said USC guard Rita John- son, “so we decided we had to defend ourselves.” But Coach Andruzzi disa- greed “East Carolina is building a class program, but tonight, unfortu- nately, we went down to South Caroli- na’s style of ball. I think our girls learned tonight that winning isn’t everything.” February 14 saw the second appear- ance of the cowbells this season as 2,000 roaring, clanging fans celebrat- ed Banner Night at Minges. This time the bells’ magic fell a little short as the Pirates dropped an 81-76 decision to the Wolfpack to North Carolina State. After leading at the half, State hit the first six points of the second period. ECU pulled to within three with 50 seconds remaining in the game, but eee State’s Sherry Lawson quickly upped the margin to five after a Pirate timeout. Marcia Girven hit with 27 seconds left to bring ECU back within three, but a foul by Laurie Sikes en- abled State’s Angie Armstrong to hit both ends of a one-and-one to seal the Wolfpack’s victory. Minges was the site of the next game as well, as the Pirates cruised to a 92-72 win over High Point. The team was paced by the hot outside shooting of Riley and Rountree, and jumped to a 46-30 halftime lead. ECU continued in the second half where it had left off, building its edge to 62-39 with 11 points by Rosie Thompson. The Pi- rate scoring was led by Rountree, who tallied 24, and Riley, who added 14.

We needed this game and we were not sure we could get it and certainly not by such a margin.” The win set up the showdown re- match with rival North Carolina in Chapel Hill. This time the Pirates fell to Carolina by a score of 85-71. The lead changed hands twelve times in the first period, with neither team able to gain more than a three point edge. Cathy Crawford pumped in three straight field goals for UNC, answered by two from Rosie Thomp- son to set the score at 47-45 and signal the beginning of the end for the Pi- rates. The Tar Heels capitalized on three Pirate turnovers and fired 16 un- answered points to widen the gap to 63-45 and end the hopes for an ECU win. Rosie Thompson, recovering from her recent scoring slump, led the Pi- rates with 25 points, followed by Ri- ley with 19 and Sikes with 12. “They certainly deserved to win,” commented Andruzzi. “We just wer- en’t intense.” February 9 was the date of the Pi- rates’ return to Minges, and the occa- sion was highlighted as “Rosie Thompson Night.” Thompson, whose number 10 jer- sey was retired during post-game ceremonies, sparked the Pirates to a 106-53 shellacking of George Mason University. She scored 23 points and paced the team’s rebounding with 10. ECU had little trouble from George Mason, leading by as many as 55 points during the contest. The Pirates held a 53-22 edge at intermission and ran away to a 105-49 bulge with 56 seconds remaining in the game. ECU placed five others in addition to Thompson in double figures.

Denkler led with 17, Riley followed with 16, Rountree hit 14 and both Marcia Girven and Laurie Sikes added 10. Following the rout Thompson was honored as letters from Governor Jim Hunt, Senators Jesse Helms and Rob- ert Morgan and Congressman Walter B. Jones were read. She was presented with a trophy upon which was en- graved her personal records. Thomp- son became most prolific scorer ever at ECU, man or woman, having sur- passed the 2,237 mark with her total for that game. “I don’t know what to say except thank you,” Thompson commented. “I never thought it would come to this.” The Pirates’ next matchup was in Raleigh against ninth-ranked North Carolina State. The Wolfpack built a 17-point lead halfway through the opening period and added to it throughout the rest of the game, pounding the Pirates 84-47. East Carolina cut the margin to 37- 24 at halftime, but NCSU added ten straight points to silence the hopes for a Pirate comeback. Thompson led the Pirates with 12 points, while Riley scored 11 and Mary Denkler scored 10. State coach Kay Yow commented that she was surprised by the final margin, adding that the teams’ pre- vious game in Greenville, an 81-76 win by the Wolfpack, was a better indicator of ECU’s ability and talent. The team returned to Greenville for its final home game of the season and defeated Western Carolina 82-73. The Catamounts fell behind 66-43 midway through the second half, but cut the gap to 10 with three minutes left in the game. Andruzzi put her starters back in the game and Lydia Rountree led the Pirates to their 18th win in 27games. Rountree finished with 18 points, followed by Riley with 14. Laurie Sikes added 10 points and seven as- sists to the ECU effort. Left: Rosie Thompson, ECU’s most prolific scorer, had her number 10 jersey retired during postgame ceremonies on February 9. Thomp- son’s total of 2,352 points surpasses that of any man or woman ever to play at East Carolina. Present for the ceremony were Chancellor Thomas Brewer, Coach Cathy Andruzzi, Thompson, Athletic Director Bill Cain, and Board of Trustees member Troy Pate. Right: Heidi Owen, a defensive standout for the Pi- rates throughout the season, attempts a point from the free throw line against South Carolina. After posting a 20 point victory over William and Mary in the final regular season game, the Pirates went to Raleigh for the NCAIAW Tourna- ment. The first round of the tourna- ment saw the Pirates lose their third decision of the year to NC State, in a close 80-71 defeat. The Wolfpack raced to a quick 28- 16 lead midway through the first half. Rountree, Girven and Riley added points at the beginning of the second period as the Pirates made their first comeback bid of the half, narrowing the State edge to 42-34. With under eight minutes remaining in the game, State capped a 63-49 lead, a margin which stuck for the remainder of the game. State’s Beth Fielden iced the 11 point win with an arching shot as the final buzzer sounded. East Carolina claimed third place in the tournament by defeating Duke in the consolation match 99-65. The Pi- rates never trailed during the contest as they set their final season mark at 21-10 with the resounding defeat of the Blue Devils. Junior Heidi Owen, a defensive standout throughout the season, had her best performance of the year by scoring 10 points. Laurie Sikes, while scoring only 6 points, ad- ded 12 assists to her nationally-rank- ing total of 228. “We wanted to beat Duke tonight for several reasons,” said coach Cathy Andruzzi. “We had been beaten on the road in our first conference game of the season and we felt we should have won. We respect Duke, but we were the stronger team. If this is to be the last game of the season, and I cer- tainly hope it is not, we can go out with style.” As it turned out, that was the Pi- rate’s last game. The victory, number 21, was perhaps the most significant one of all time. No Pirate basketball team — mens’ or womens’ — had ever won so many games in a single sea- son. In the past two years, the Pirate womens’ team has made significant strides toward being recognized as a leading basketball power. Coach Andruzzi, the first full time womens’ coach at East Carolina, is also the first and only womens’ coach in the nation to have her own TV show. The Cathy Andruzzi Show was aired on local Channel 9 during the season. Andruzzi’s players set milestones along with their coach. Rosie Thomp- son, ECU’s all time leading scorer with 2,352 points, was also the first and only ECU womens’ player to have her jersey retired. Thompson holds three career records and six individual records. Kathy Riley became the team’s second top single season scorer with 509 points. Riley and Thompson were the second and first leading scor- ers in the state this year. The two, along with Lydia Rountree, were named to the NCAIAW all-state team at the end of the season. Riley was invited to the Olympic trials in Colo- rado, where she finished in the top 25 of a field of more than 250. Crowds at home games also set new records this year. Attendance more than doubled over the past year. The February 9 game with George Mason drew the largest crowd ever as 3500 people watched the Pirates double their opponent’s score. “Our biggest accomplishment was to have set so many records under such competitive situations,” com- mented Andruzzi. “We made strides in womens’ basketball that no East Carolina team has ever seen, and we've only begun.” * at em ae Me soa Te nie 0 ar ee — 2ST pte eine SSG A new coach with a new style brings ECU gymnasts A New Reputation The 1979-80 ECU Womens’ Gym- nastics team opened the season with a new coach and finished with a new reputation. East Carolina, not known for a strong gymnastics team, finished the year with a 10-10 record, which included winning the NCAIAW Divi- sion II State Championship. First year coach Jon Rose, a former national competitor from West Ches- ter State College in West Chester, PA, brought a new competitive philos- ophy to the East Carolina program. Rose stated that his goal from the be- ginning would be a team score of 115 or better in every match. Coach Rose, together with student assistant Mike Healy, put the ECU girls through a 7- month regimen consisting of three hours of practice a day, six days a week. In addition to their usual train- ing, they were required to complete a physical conditioning program every other day. In December, the gymnasts trav- elled to Florida for a training clinic. The trip was labeled as a success by Rose as ECU defeated Montgomery College and scored 117.9 in its match following the trip. East Carolina posted victories over highly ranked Furman, Radford and powerhouse Memphis State. The gymnasts finished the season with a 119 average based on their five best marks. ECU scored its highest team total of the year, 119.8, at the AIAW Region II Division II Championships at Rad- ford. The team was edged out of fourth place by one-tenth of a point. The top all-around competitors for East Carolina were team co-captains Susan McKnight and Cindy Rogers. Others who were strong were Annie Loeschke and Elizabeth Jackson. Per- forming consistently in three or more events were Susan Lawrence and Car- ol Layton. Specializing in vaulting and floor exercises were Kim Lowe, Kim Blevins and Claudia Hauck. 3 a Ses Milas Left: Prior to her balance beam performance, Elizabeth Jackson chalks her hands.

The steady improvement marks a season in which tennis at ECU got The ECU mens’ tennis team fin- ished the year with a 10-7 record. The team played a less difficult schedule than the year before when they posted a 2-12 mark. According to first year coach Jon Rose, the schedule was “more realistic considering our level of ability.” Yet the team still faced such powerful opponents as North Carolina, NC State and Old Domin- ion. The team was led by seniors Ken Love and Henry Hostetler, who were seeded first and second respectively. The only seniors on the team, the two “gave the stability and leadership to the group that seniors will naturally give,” said Rose. Sophomore Keith Zengel was seed- ed third and followed by freshman Ted Lepper at fourth. Lepper had the team’s best individual record, 12-5, and was voted Most Valuable Player by his teammates. Rounding out Rose’s starters were Barry Parker at fifth, who was voted most dedicated, sophomore Mark Byrd at sixth, sev- enth seeded Norman Bryant and Tom Battle, Steve Peterson and Wayne Medlin at eight, ninth and tenth. The team brought a 7-7 record to its own ECU Invitational Tournament at the end of the season. There they posted wins over UNC-Wilmington, Campbell and North Carolina Central to claim the championship and end the year with a mark of 10-7. “We had a good season,” said Coach Rose, in reference to his team’s im- provement of the record of the year before. “This year we had a sense of discipline and organization which di- rectly influenced the outcome of the season.” ee Sa Se BES Fae SET ES A ESE SEER SR OFS 2 Re os i i bs } E Tease SSS Sees Ree Ae SEIN NODE MALI PE EIENETA OR ALENT ARLE D TATOO no a MELISS — Above left: Seventh seed Norman Bryant, the ee ae team’s Most Improved Player, displays his "se backhand in a match against West Liberty.

Competing with both indoor and outdoor schedules, the team consistently placed with the best teams in the nation. The mile relay was the harrier’s standout winner. The event, whose running was shared by five team members — Calvin Alston, Shawn Laney, Carlton Bell, Stan Curry and Otis Melvin — was the one coach Bill Carson concentrated on the most. ECU qualified for the nationals in the mile relay at the East Tennessee State Above: Otis Melvin grimaces as he leads the mile relay team to a third in the nation place at the NCAA Indoor Nationals at Joe Lewis Arena in Detroit.

Invitational, an outdoor event that was only the second meet on the schedule. At the Philadelphia Track Classic the next week the Pirates placed third out of 24 teams. The Vita- lis Invitational in New York City saw the team win the relay event with a time of 3:17.1. Melvin, Curry, Bell and Laney paced the team to an AIll- American mark of third in the nation at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The outdoor season was much the same. Perhaps their most impressive run was in the nationally prestigious Penn Relays, where their time of 3:09.6 was the second best of the 100 schools in the event. The foursome’s show in the Tom Black Classic in Knoxville, Tennessee, rounded out their impressive season. The time of 3:06.42 set a new school record and defeated the host University of Ten- nessee, which had not lost a mile relay event at home in five years. Other team members made equally outstanding contributions to the team. Triple jumper Herman MclIn- tyre qualified for the nationals with his mark of 531%” in the first out- door meet of the year, the Florida Re- lays. McIntyre won his next meet as well, with a jump of 51’8” in the State Record Meet in Columbia, South Carolina. He also captured the title in the NC State Invitational and the Penn State Invitational with a new stadium mark of 51’10”. Otis Melvin set a fieldhouse record at the Ohio State Indoor Invitational in the quarter mile. He went on to win the 200 meter run in three other meets, setting a stadium record at the Pitt Invitational. Stan Curry set his new record with a time of 1:10.9 in the 600 meter event at the Pitt Invitational. Curry won the 440 at the State Record Relays and set a new 440 record of 46.31 at the NC State Invitational. Curry went to the Nationals, where he was eliminated from competition as a semi-finalist. High jumper Russell Parker won the event at the Ohio State Invita- tional. His jump of 7’0” at the Tom Black Classic set another school re- cord. Bill Miller won both the mile and half mile at the Pitt Invitational and the Ohio State Indoor Invitational. At Delaware, he finished first in the mile and second in the half mile. The 4-by-100 relay run by Alston, Curry, Melvin and Tim Cephas cap- tured another second place at the Penn Relays. The team lost only to the University of Houston, the nation’s second ranked team. The squad beat out such schools as Kentucky, Au- burn, Tennessee and LSU, four lead- ing schools in the Southeastern Con- ference, the “ultimate sprint confer- ence in the country,” according to coach Bill Carson. “The Penn Relays was the highlight of our outdoor season,” said Carson. “For East Carolina to win two second places in the most prestigious relay event in the country is tremendous, especially when we beat out about 100 teams. Our mile relay beating Tennes- see in front of their own people in Knoxville was also real big for me,” he concluded. 207 Mens’ Track s ee AN 8 NOL NAT UNE EEAS RMT PAR ee ene ota NN eT TYRRELL AT NR a <= = 3 -s, >. a >@ >< eS Bi ig his, oS Na in = es si” ll.

The team posted as many wins as they had in the previous two years and had eight players end the season with batting averages of .300 or more. Coach Alita Dillon’s team began preparing for their season in Novem- ber, with a program of running and weight lifting. In January they began practicing outdoors. According to Dil- lon, “whenever it was 40 degrees or more, we were outside.” The months of preparation paid off as the Pirates won their first seven games of the season. Winning scores of 16-1, 11-0, 17-2 and 26-0 became common as the team lost only five of its 42 games. On their way to the AIAW Region II Championship the team dropped games only to Western Carolina, North Carolina, Florida and Northern Kentucky. The Pirates were led by seniors Mary Bryan Carlyle, Mary Powell and Jan McVeigh. The three brought “lots Left: Kathy Riley, whose usual power was to left center and left field, smiles as she blasts a hit down the right field line.

Carlyle, a third year team mem- ber, handled most of the pitching du- ties during the season. Dillon called her 30-4 record “phenomenal.” Other starters in addition to Carlyle, Powell at shortstop and McVeigh at catcher were Shirley Brown at first base, Cin- dy Meekins at third, and Kathy Riley in left field. Riley was the standout of standouts with a .588 batting average and 59 runs-batted-in, which was more than the total of all opponents. “She beat the opposition all by her- self,’”” said Dillon. Four freshmen made up the rest of the starting team. Ginger Rothermal at second base, Yvonne Williams in short field, Cynthia Shepard in right and Mitzi Davis in center rounded out the lineup. Dillon’s bench added balance and consistency to the team’s perfor- mance. Fran Hooks was an offensive threat as well as a reliable backup as catcher.

Every starter had a specific teammate as backup, and they all did an excellent job. It was a total team effort.” In post season, the Pirates won the NCAIAW Division I championship, the NCAIAW State Championship and went on to win the AIAW Region II championship. This was as far as they could go, as there will not be a national championship. Dillon concluded, “The biggest hurdle for a young program like ours is for the players to be convinced they can beat schools with more estab- lished programs. Our girls looked around and saw that they could do it. I don’t think it was luck at all, it wasn’t superior coaching, it was hard work and determination from the girls. We just had the talent.” to a 7-2 win. Below right: Pitcher Mary Bryan Carlyle searches for second while her opponent from NC State awaits a throw from the catcher.

In their race against the clock, the team has no choice but to Go For It The 1980 East Carolina Womens’ Track season went into the record books as a banner year for personal bests and school records. Of the five records set, two team members ac- counted for four. At the University of South Carolina meet Linda Mason set records in the 3,000 and 5,000 meter runs with times of 10.27 and 18.14 respectively. Eve Brennan clocked a school record of 4.42 in the 1,500 meter run at the state meet in Chapel Hill. At the same meet senior Cookie McPhatter set a cham- pionship pace when she qualified for the nationals in the 800 meter run with a time of 2:07.9. The 400 meter relay team of Dawn Henderson, Cath- ryn Suggs, Irdie Williams and Lydia Rountree captured second place in their event at the state meet. McPhatter’s mark of 57.2 in the 400 meter run at the USC meet set another record. Coach Laurie Arrants de- scribed McPhatter as a “textbook pic- ture perfect 800 meter runner.” Long jumper Roz Major set a new varsity record of 18912” at the Caroli- na Relays on April 12 to round out the new additions to the record book. “Having such an impressive team at a university that has no facilities for competition in track and field is quite Arrants an accomplishment,” according to Ar- , 4 rants, who can only rely on her team’s happiness and the overall environ- ment at ECU to lure prospective team members here. “Last year I had four girls recruited out from under me by other schools in the state and they all eventually wound up here. It’s not fa- ' cilities that matter in the long run, it’s the people in the program, the school and the chance to compete that count,” said Arrants.

Led by first year coach Hal Baird, a former ECU standout, the team made the NCAA playoffs and finished the year ranked 30th in the nation. In addition, four seniors were drafted in the pro- fessional leagues and three players were named to the All-South Indepen- dent Team. Offense was the key to the success- ful season. The team hit .312 collecti- vely and had eleven players who hit .306 or better. Senior left fielder Butch Davis paced the team with 12 home runs, 27 RBI’s and a batting average of .383. Teammate Billy Best was close behind, averaging .336. Both Davis and Best were drafted by the Kansas City Royals at the end of the season. In addition, the San Diego Padres tabbed catcher Raymie Styons and pitcher Mickey Britt. “Having four of our players drafted is quite an achievement for any team,” said coach Baird. Davis and Best were also named to the All-South Independent Team along with pitcher Bill Wilder who went 10-1 during the season. The Pirates opened their schedule with a four game sweep of Connecti- cut, a team that went to the College World Series and finished sixth in the nation the year before.

A 10-9 loss to Fairfield set up a home showdown with North Caroli- na. A sellout crowd of 4,000 was on hand for the Pirate’s 10-3 win over the Tar Heels, a game Baird called ’’a very big win for our program. They came in here and got a real surprise. They just weren’t expecting to see what they saw,” said Baird. The final half of the season saw the Pirates drop decisions only to Mary- land and in their rematch with Caroli- na in Chapel Hill. The team was invit- ed to the NCAA playoffs for the first time as an independent. “Because con- ference champions have automatic berths, it is harder for an independent to be selected,” said Baird. ‘We were chosen over powerhouse teams like Southern California, Arizona State and Florida.” The last minute invitation to the Northeast Regional in Orono, Maine, left the team unprepared for the play- offs. Baird had sent his team home after spring exams and was only able to hold three practice sessions to pre- pare them for the playoffs. Playing their first game in almost a month, the Pirates fell to Harvard in the opening round of the double- elimination series. The 7-3 loss was followed the next day by a 2-1 loss to Maine that eliminated the team from the competition. Closing out the schedule with a 28-7 record, a national ranking of 30th, four seniors drafted into the major leagues, and three players making the All-South Independent Team was all in a season’s work for a team that spent the largest part of their season in the winner’s circle.

The MRC handled the programming of all events on the hill while also taking care of judiciary matters concerning students who lived on the hill. Highlights of the MRC’s year in- cluded two concerts on the hill. One, which featured the Jubal Band, took place in the fall and also included a pig pickin’, while the other featured Badge and was held in the spring. The MRC also sponsored movies in individual dorms, and provided a game and equipment check out room in the basement of Aycock Dorm. Equipment checkout was improved this year with the purchase of a new canoe and paddles. Tents, grills and other recreational equipment was available for checkout to all MRC members. The MRC provided speakers in the dorms from time to time. These in- cluded Basketball coach Dave Odom, Chancellor Thomas Brewer, and Vice Chancellor for Student Life Elmer Meyer. Another event sponsored by the MRC was the ski trip to Masshen- utte Ski Villiage. The MRC was active during Home- coming as well. Their Homecoming representative, Lisa Zack, was crowned queen, and the MRC float received second place honors in the float competition. Projects sponsored by the Men’s Residence Council included sponsor- ing four needy children at Christmas, and improving the appearance of the hill by planting trees and shrubs, and through the addition of a flagpole and flag at the top of the hill. Improve- ments in parking also came about with the help of the MRC. This year the Mens’ Residence Council purchased a large screen Ad- vent Television and Video Recorder. This should enable programming on the hill to be improved. One of the major events of the MRC was the awarding of the James B. Mallory Scholarship. Each, semes- ter, a scholarship based on academic achievement, need, and residence hall contribution was given to a MRC member.

Adams 221 Residence Councils — nat ae Vein Pema ae dB * _ — After a shaky start, the SGA spent a sometimes-controversial, yet remarkably quiet year Governing 222 For the Student Government Asso- ciation, the year was typical — a little action, a little controversy and a little progress highlighted the school term. The year opened under a shadow that had been originally cast with the elections for executive council posi- tions in the Spring of 1979. After two months of controversy, Brett Melvin was finally awarded the SGA presi- dency he had won in the March elec- tions, but only after he was disquali- fied by the student Review Board, fur- ther denied by Chancellor Thomas Brewer and finally installed by the Board of Trustees. In the interim, his office was filled by Vice President Charlie Sherrod, who served as acting president, then by newly declared president Libby Lefler, and once again by Sherrod when Lefler was ousted pending the Board’s decision. The controversy that had apparent- ly ended when Melvin took office on June 6 arose again in September. Mel- vin received a letter from former president Tim Sullivan during late Organizations July or early August instructing him to spend ten percent of the SGA’s $125,000 budget on “propaganda.” Sullivan also referred to his testimony on Melvin’s behalf at the Trustee hearing as a “performance.” The letter was stolen from Melvin’s office and xeroxed copies of it were anonymous- ly mailed to adminstrators, trustees and the editor of The East Carolinian. The letter angered trustees with its reference to a “performance” before them when Melvin sought to be rein- stated after being disqualified from office by the Review Board for alleged campaign rule violations. (See page 18.) Chancellor Brewer spoke to a meet- ing of the SGA legislature and de- clared, ‘It is more important to get on with the business of working together in the best interests of ECU and look back over the past year’s accomplish- ments with pride and quit beating dead horses,” referring to the inci- dent. Brewer said he was “not happy about the fact that the letter was ob- tained by robbery.” The election of a speaker was the legislature’s first act. Mike Adkins was elected by a 29-19 vote over Jeff Triplett. Adkins, who was responsible for naming committee chairpersons, declared that his first order of busi- ness. The legislature was saddled with the problem of a deteriorating transit system as its first major problem of the year. An accident involving an SGA bus on October 16 that totaled the bus and injured several students followed by another minor accident in Mendenhall parking lot on October 24 signalled the beginning of a debate over the funding of the transit system for the upcoming school year. At an October 29 meeting, the legis- lature postponed the funding of the transit system to study the problems facing it. The system was awarded $70,000 at the following meeting over the objections of many legislators who claimed the amount left very lit- tle money to fund other campus = Oh achat NE MMR FR STARE R A AAP REICH ERE IL re AD EER LAM I TLR SELMA RE ier PRREEVER A AL TGR TE ET RE BITE ICL LST LN ELLOS BS SONNE Fete merece ems 8 Ua mr EMY EMRE Gb: AOE BART AT TNE RR ORES RI oko RNB an MY aba N Em wm, LOAD RTE AAI SR gE eth, eae > = = = = ” ‘ cores ss Pe Left: Legislators Barbara Ellstrom, Cheryl Fel- binger, Lili Johnson and Mark Zumbach appear less than attentive during a lengthy debate at a ail Monday evening session of the SGA. Below: President Brett Melvin addresses the legislators to explain his veto of the Transit System Bill. Gurley The Ranks groups. The bill was vetoed by President Brett Melvin on the grounds that it was too expensive and that it lacked a concensus because it was passed by only a four vote margin. A new bill was then passed which cut the appro- priation by $14,500 and called for the elimination of the Brown Route be- cause of its low ridership. It was deter- mined that the funds would be appro- priated to other organizations that had been inadequately financed. The legislature’s next dispute was over whether to provide funds to the East Carolina Gay Community to train counselors for the Peer Counsel- ing Center. Speaker Mike Adkins broke a 13-13 tie with a “no” vote to deny the group its $140 request. The heated discussion on the bill contered around the group’s nature and its sup- port among students. Legislator Mark Zumbach, who was also president of the ECGC, commented, “I don’t think the bill was defeated on the grounds of the bill itself, but because of per- sonal prejudices against the group.” Gurley 223 SGA eI Ane Rie E IRANI PRI tate tee aa Se HT NRE Ip EUR OR ITEM AI EL EIEIO EI ING IE LO TEP OTE CR EI.

Sherrod said he could save students the expense of going to an outside notary by having docu- ments notarized free of charge in his office. Questions concerning the eligibil- ity of Treasurer Ricky Lowe were raised in early January. Lowe, who dropped out of school before final ex- ams in December, raised the questions by returning to school and his office in January despite a constitutional re- quirement that SGA officers remain full-time students for the duration of their term. The possibility of holding a special election to fill the position which Lowe had technically vacated when he withdrew from school was discussed but not acted upon. Attor- ney General Drake Mann later ruled that Lowe had not missed any time from his job and was “not negligent in any duties persuant to that posi- tion.” President Brett Melvin traveled to Washington, DC, in January to attend a meeting between HEW officials and student body presidents in the Uni- versity of North Carolina system. The purpose of the meeting was to correct what NC State president J.D. Hayworth called “a lack of student participation into a case which will affect student's lives,” referring to the Left: The faces of legislators Bill Gardner, Peg- gy Davidson, Carlton Williams, Marianne Ed- wards and Leigh Ann Teague portray their dif- fering opinions on the question of funding for student organizations as the debate continues. dispute over desegregation between the university system and HEW. Mel- vin received $130 from the SGA to cover the expenses of his trip. The Science Education Club re- ceived $3,190 for a research trip around the world including stops in West Germany, India, Hong Kong and Hawaii. The trip’s main purpose was to observe a total eclipse of the sun in India on February 16. The SGA’s appropriation enabled the stu- dents to do additional research on their scheduled stops. Towing of student vehicles was dis- cussed at a meeting on February 25, where Vice President Sherrod an- nounced that several Greenville tow- ing companies had agreed to lower their rates for towing student vehicles parked illegally off campus. Sherrod discussed the possibility of using wheel locks to immoblize illegally parked cars on campus rather than towing them. The transit system and a proposed SGA banquet were the subjects of the next meeting. The legislature dis- cussed a plan to reorganize the transit system by creating a Transit Author- ity to control the system. The author- ity would have among its members a representative of the Drivers Educa- tion Department to see that bus dri- vers were properly trained. Discus- sion over the banquet centered on Melvin’s promised veto of any ban- quet bill that involved the expenditure of student fees. The arrest of fourteen students on charges of possession of cocaine and marijuana prompted Melvin to at- tempt to secure bail money for those who needed it. Melvin objected to the manner in which the undercover in- vestigation was conducted, with an agent from the State Bureau of Inves- tigation posing as a student, and pledged to do anything he could to assist the students who were arrested. He was able to secure bail for several students through a bondsman in Washington. Elections for executive council posi- tions for 1980-81 were held on April 2. Vice President Charlie Sherrod was elected president, defeating Attorney General Drake Mann by 456 votes. Secretary Lynn Calder won the race for vice president, beating legislator Al Patrick. The closest race was for treasurer. Kirk Little captured a 15- vote win over Danny O'Connor. Marianne Edwards was unopposed in the race for secretary. The legislature met on April 9 and passed a resolution opposing the ad- ministration’s plan to reschedule two class days that were missed during the two foot snowfall of March 3 and 4. The legislators objected to the incon- venience caused to students by hold- ing classes on Saturday, April 26, and Reading Day, April 29. In their final meeting of the year, the SGA passed the Transit Reorgani- zation Bill despite the threatened veto by new President Sherrod, who said he would veto it because he was not involved in its preparation. The year ended with much less con- troversy than it had begun with. Spring elections, which had a recent tradition of turbulence and political intrigue, were the best handled and least questioned in at least five years. The student turnout of 25 percent was the highest in recent history. Legisla- tor Al Patrick, who was defeated in the race for vice president, called the elections an “outstanding success.” Atypically, in lieu of past years, the end of the year was outstandingly smooth. 225 SGA 226 nn ce a eae With a new director, a new winter guard and a new style, the Marching Pirates were the pride of ECU. “In spite of hardships and handi- caps we brought it off,” said Tom Goolsby, new director of the March- ing Pirates. The year’s problems in- cluded financial worries caused by a lack of sufficient funds for uniforms. Yet through sheer determination, the band marched on to become “bigger and better than ever.” East Carolina was the first in the state to form a Winter Guard. This special subdivision, along with the modernized tunes arranged by Goolsby, awarded the Marching Pi- rates a full season of standing ova- tions — a first in ECU history. Chan- cellor Brewer stated that the Pirates were the best college band he had seen in his 24 years of experience. With football season ending so suc- cessfully, the band members involved themselves in several other school ac- tivities during the year. They hosted the annual high school marching band competition and took part in running the polls during the fall elec- tions. They also arranged for a section of the band to play “heavy funk” dur- ing basketball season. The SGA passed a resolution thanking the Marching Pirates for their support in university activities and commending them on their out- standing performances. For the first time in several years, the band re- ceived funds from the Student Gov- ernment. Money was still a problem for the band at the end of the year, as there was only enough to provide half the band uniforms needed for the upcom- ing season. But, despite the financial hardships, the Marching Pirates re- main ECU’s finest. “We're Bigger And Better Than Ever’ Right: The Marching Pirates’ inaugural half- time performance during the season opener with Western Carolina earned them one of the many standing ovations that they received throughout the season. The band was enthusi- astically received even by opposing fans at away games, several of whom described it as “awesome.” Organizations ee eo ae ae Grogan 227 Marching Pirates Sloan Fi gi ‘ge se 2 a we _ Ping Caw stone RESTS UR ee a eae oe RG A TL RAIN are a rs By ti Lo | | } ? | | | i i oF PULLEY aE A RETR GEN NAP LILI PRRs HM HTT arpa re ATM A AH ERR IIE NE SR ven ME IER mp TR AR EON NT PINT AN EE A ON ae RGN RN PTR range er = ye ig yp pee ae My shy aR ADMVD Rape vee RtrwenpvesIAIBIWeN Viadinone Parvati tage eer eM ey EO Gurley Gurley Left: Freshman music major Mark Stone plays a Above: Unknown to the majority of ECU stu- Below: Members of the rifle squad stage a prac- dents were the endless hours of preseason prac- tice session in front of Fletcher Music Hall to refine their technique. trumpet solo while Pom Pom girls Cindy Lamm and Johanna Johnson add flair to the band’s halftime performance. tice by the band in preparation for the upcom- ing football season. 229 Marching Pirates ueojsS The Buccaneer staff, after delivering the first year- book in three years, changes the format for the 1980 edition, beginning the new decade All Worked Up The ten-month job of preparing copy for the 1980 Buccaneer began early in the school year and continued through July. The job, which entailed designing 352 pages, covering ap- proximately 100 campus events, crop- ping and writing captions for ap- proximately 500 pictures, and photo- graphing about 1700 students, kept the 20-member yearbook staff busy for the entire school year. Events began in September as the 1979 edition of the yearbook was de- livered on the 14th. This delivery marked the end of a three-year hiatus of the Buccaneer from East Carolina. The annual journalism workshop co-sponsored by the Division of Con- tinuing Education and the English Department brought high school stu- dents from throughout eastern North Carolina to campus on the 29th. The workshop included sessions conduct- ed by representatives of several year- book printers and one session taught by editor Craig Sahli and former edi- tor Monika Sutherland. In October, the Media Board created and agreed to fund the position of as- sociate editor of the Buccaneer. This position, a first for the yearbook at ECU, was created to relieve the heavy workload of the editor and business manager. Meanwhile the staff was at work to create a volume of the yearbook that would be an improvement over the last edition, which won a First Class award from the Associated Collegiate Press. “Our hardest task was to im- prove upon a book that won the high- est award of any ECU yearbook in ten years,” said editor Craig Sahli. “In spite of our award, we felt that there were significant weak spots in the book, especially in the area of cap- tions and body copy.” To achieve this goal, Sahli and asso- ciate editor Barrie Byland travelled to San Francisco to attend the Associated Collegiate Press’ annual convention. The four-day convention was de- signed to inform yearbook staffers of current trends and to help them make improvements in the weak parts of their books. To improve the 1980 yearbook, em- phasis was placed on covering more events of the school year than before. The coverage of events was designed around making the 1980 Buccaneer re- late more to individual students. In doing so, more students were inter- viewed, more personal stories were in- cluded, and more photographs of stu- dents were added. The staff decided to return to the traditional section format for the 1980 edition. An introduction and conclu- sion were added to the general cover- age of the school year. A theme which reflected the new decade of the 1980's was decided upon to further comple- ment the yearbook. The ultimate aim of the yearbook staff was to create an edition of the Buccaneer that would be rated highly and be well received by the university community. Right: Students jammed the Buccaneer office in September to pick up the 1979 edition of the yearbook. It was the first time since 1976 that they had the opportunity to obtain an ECU annual.

Yet the staff and student body wait patiently for its arrival, which promises to extend the magazine’s award-winning tradition despite its Delayed Excellence The 1979 edition of ECU’s literary- art magazine, the Rebel, was awarded second place in national competition among literary-arts magazines judged by the Society of Collegiate Journal- ists. There was no first place award given in the contest. The staff of the 1980 Rebel tried to bring some freshness into the maga- zine while extending its award-win- ning tradition. One of the changes made was a switch to a local Green- ville printer. According to Colleen Flynn, the Organizations first woman editor of the magazine, the communication between the writ- ers and the visual artists was in- creased for the 1980 edition. There was also more interest in the annual Rebel Art Show as well as a boost in prize money for the show. The Rebel staff sponsored readings of prose and poetry throughout the year which were well attended by stu- dents and faculty. Chancellor Thomas Brewer said of the Rebel, “It is the finest literary magazine I have seen.” The 1980 edition of the magazine was delivered to campus in late April, but a series of errors made by its printer caused the staff to demand that it be reprinted. Editor Colleen Flynn commented, “we felt that qual- ity should take precedence over a de- livery date.” In spite of the inconve- nience caused to the students by a fall delivery, staff members felt that the delay was well worth it, as a magazine loaded with printing errors would not rate favorably with students or with judges as other Rebels had in the past.

The lab began the year with a newly rennovated facility, which greatly ad- ded to its operating efficiency. The rennovations entailed removing inte- rior walls and redesigning the floor- plan. The old five-cubicle design was replaced with a more efficient three- room plan which consisted of a com- bination office and studio, a storage and general purpose workroom, and a fully equipped darkroom in which two people could work at the same time. The outside door also received a facelift, with a new graphic lettering design provided by art major Ellen Fishburne. A delay in the arrival of new equip- ment, however, caused the lab to get off to a slow start. The long-awaited second enlarger did not arrive until November, and only one photogra- Organizations pher at a time could work in the dark- room until then. With the expansion of the Bucca- neer and The East Carolinian, the lab experienced a drastic increase in the number of photo requests, especially for black and white shots. “The work- load was just too much for a four- person staff and consequently, it caused quite a turnover of personnel throughout the year,” according to head photographer Pete Podeszwa. “The heavy demand certainly justifies having a fifth photographer, and we really won't be able to provide quick and efficient service to the media until we get one,” he concluded. The lab is still in need of acquiring more equipment, namely another camera and several electronic flash units, so that every photographer will have the proper equipment. “We're still in the process of rebuilding,” said Podeszwa.

The station did move much closer to operating as its long awaited FM construction permit arrived in January. New call letters were selected in the spring as WZMB- FM replaced the old WECU. A tower was constructed in March and broad- cast equipment was ordered in June, but the station’s general manager John Jeter could still set no air date. Throughout the fall, Jeter’s staff consisted only of himself, an assistant manager and a business manager. Funding for other positions had been frozen by the Media Board pending the granting of the license to operate. The small staff stayed busy checking the progress of its application, and de- ciding which type of equipment to or- der when the permit arrived. The staff attended the Loyola Na- tional Radio Conference in Chicago in November, which was designed to in- form the staffs of educational radio stations on such things as new FCC regulations, new equipment and inno- vations in programming. “When we left the convention, we were much better prepared to run the station,” according to Jeter. After another year of waiting, the FM construction permit was finally granted by the Federal Communica- tions Commission on January 15. But it was not before Jeter enlisted the personal help of US Congressman Walter B. Jones in a desperate attempt to obtain the permit. Jones made sev- eral attempts to contact the FCC, and when his efforts were ignored, he en- listed the indirect help of President Carter. Jones requested that the Presi- dent “correct the communication problem between his office and the commission” at an administration banquet in December, according to Jeter. Some four weeks later, the sta- tion finally received its construction permit, almost two years after the ap- plication was filed. Because university officials would not allow the use of the letters WECU, new call letters for the station had to be chosen. The call letters WZMB were selected shortly after the arrival of the permit. “We wanted a Z to go along with our frequency of 91.3, so we could be ‘Z-91’,” said Jeter. “We also wanted something to signify that the station was licensed to the Media Board and not to the university, hence we chose the letters WZMB.” The construction of a broadcasting tower was the next step. After plans were approved for its construction on the roof of Tyler Dorm, work on the tower was started on March 25. “The girls in Tyler were really shocked when they saw it on top of the dorm. But they soon began saying ‘Tyler’s on top of it all’, which paraphrased the promotional slogan for a new tower at a local TV station,” said Jeter. After the tower was finished, the lengthy process of acquiring broad- casting equipment was begun. The slowness of the state bidding system under which the equipment was pur- chased delayed the station’s air date beyond the end of Jeter’s term as gen- eral manager. “It’s utterly amazing that so many different organizations have made such an effort to prevent the station from going on the air,” said Jeter, re- ferring to his two year battle with the SGA, FCC and university officials. “No radio station has ever had to put up with what we've already been through. It’s been one disappoint- ment after another for two long years.” “The students should realize that WZM6B is their radio station with a format that was designed specifically for them after lengthy research,” said Jeter. “They should take some pride in it and keep it operating by and for them when it does get on the air.” Left: Workers constructed the station’s broad- casting tower on the roof of Tyler Dorm during the week of March 25. The $2300 structure was attached to the elevator shaft of the building. Inset: The sight of the completed tower caused the residents in Tyler to borrow a slogan from a local television station and refer to themselves as “On top of it all.” Center: John Jeter, general manager.

HAI Hea ar AGERE RT PMN BARI oy AHURA dab pone By keeping financial tabs on the campus media and initiating positive changes in their operations, the Media Board provides The Media Board, comprised of stu- dent leaders and administration repre- sentatives, served as the governing body of all campus media. These in- cluded the Buccaneer, The East Caro- linian, the Rebel, WZMB-EM., and the Photo Lab. In its second year of operation, the board made several significant changes in the campus media. The board examined and approved oper- ations manuals for the media and, by doing so, placed the responsibility for routine operations of the media on the heads of the media. According to As- sociate Dean for Student Activities Rudolph Alexander, “The board re- quired each media to get its own house in order.” Each of the media saw improve- ments brought about by the board. The board passed a personnel policy and staff reorganization of The East Carolinian. The personnel policy was designed to bring the newspaper’s employment practices in line with university and state regulations pro- tecting employees and employers. The staff reorganization involved a split- ting of the business and editorial sec- Left: Media Board members Tricia Morris, Diane Starks, Grady Dickerson, Brett Melvin, John Warren, Mike Smith, Charles Suné, Ru- dolph Alexander and secretary Catherine Mer- cer review a financial report submitted by The East Carolinian business manager Steve O’Geary. tions of the paper into completely in- dependent areas and the renaming of the head position from senior editor to editor-in-chief. The board also fi- nanced a completely new typesetting system and three remote terminals for the newspaper. The board created the position of associate editor of the Buccaneer in September. This was designed to re- lieve the heavy workload of the editor and business manager and to have a second-in-command who was a part of the editorial rather than the busi- ness department. Perhaps the greatest event of the year was the licensing of the student radio station, WZMB. After two years of delays caused by the university and the Federal Communications Com- mission, the station received its FM license and construction permit in mid-January. A broadcasting tower was built on the roof of Tyler Dorm and technologically-advanced broad- casting equipment was purchased for the station. A staff was organized by general manager John Jeter and the air date was set for August. The Ebony Herald, ECU’s on-again, off-again minority publication, was revived by the board and then killed off by a lack of student interest. An editor for the publication was hired in October, who submitted a budget and redesigned the publication’s format. It was decided in January that a lack of money and time would prevent the appearance of the publication this year, but the editor agreed to assist any new applicant for the next year’s position. After advertising for appli- cants for two weeks, the board de- clared the publication defunct again when there were no applicants. Members of the board also ap- proved several amendments to its con- stitution. One of these upped the grade point average requirements for applicants for the media head posi- tions to 2.5. This amendment also re- quired the chief business officers of each medium to be approved by the board before taking office. Because of the controversial nature of this amendment, it was decided that it would not take effect until the 1981-82 school term. Another amendment al- lowed student members of the board to designate a representative from their respective organizations to serve on the board in their place. According to Media Board chairper- son Tricia Morris, “The board helped student fees go farther this year by getting more out of the financial re- sources that we had, mainly by get- ting the radio station ready to begin broadcasting, seeing a substantial growth of The East Carolinian, hav- ing the Buccaneer stay on its feet and continue to improve its quality, and by supporting the continued excel- lence of the Rebel.” 245 Media Board PSD TIC Ne OS te Poa TR, Bs e a | | ] | | aa Sr ae 246 Left: Charles Sufie resigned his presidency of the Student Union because of conflicts with his studies and his desire to program major con- certs.

Almost 100 student volunteers made up the ten separate committees that were each involved with a particular area of programming. Working closely to- gether, the committees coordinated a wide variety of campus entertainment that was geared toward the diversified interests of the student body. The Art Exhibition Committee se- lected and sponsored several traveling shows in the Mendenhall Upper Gal- lery. The committee presented Ride On, an exhibition of the history of bicycling, October 15-November 1. The show was grouped into historical periods dating from the “Golden Age of Bicycling” in the 1890's to the “bike boom” of modern times when sales of bikes topped those of cars. The show was circulated by the Traveling Exhi- bition Service of the Smithsonian In- stitution. The committee sponsored a show by ECU graduate art student Bobby Simmons November 1-9 as part of the Black Arts Festival. Simmons’ work included sculpture and paintings. His show was followed by a Papermaking Workshop and Pa- perworks Exhibition that ran from November 19-December 15. The exhi- bition was in two parts. One empha- sized handmade paper and the other concentrated on ways to use it. A traveling exhibition from the North Carolina Museum of Art was Adams presented February 3-29. The exhibit coincided with the Jewish Arts Festi- val and included artifacts of Jewish cultures. The committee’s final exhibition, A Cartoon History of Foreign Policy, was presented March 30-April 27. The 127 cartoons by such famed political cartoonists as Benjamin Franklin showed the changing trends in American foreign policy for 200 years. The exhibition was circulated by the Smithsonian Institution. The Artists Series Committee pre- sented internationally acclaimed art- ists and ensembles. The committee presented famed pianist Claude Frank in Hendrix Theatre on October 30. His performance was followed by an appearance by Victor Borge in Wright Auditorium on December 10. During Spring semester the com- mittee presented the Zurich Chamber Orchestra. ‘This event was one of the most well attended programs of the entire year,” according to Student Union President Karen McLawhorn. The committee’s final presentation, Music For A While, brought an even- ing of medieval and renaissance music to campus on March 18. The Coffeehouse Committee pre- sented perhaps the most unique pro- gram of the Student Union. The com- mittee presented performances by ECU students and local citizens in a miniature nightclub in the basement of Mendenhall. The performance’s twofold purpose gave talented stu- dents the chance to perform and pre- sented a viable alternative to going downtown for other students. The Fri- day and Saturday night shows includ- ed one hour sets by two different acts. A 50¢ admission fee entitled members of the audience to munchies and soft drinks. The Entertainer Committee’s pur- pose is to publicize the Student Union and its offerings. The committee members stay in constant touch with all other committees to be aware of their upcoming events. These are pub- lished monthly in the committee’s publication, the Entertainer. The pop- ularity of the publication has in- creased tremendously in the last year as more and more students used it to learn of upcoming events. The Films Committee presents pop- ular, avant garde, and international films for free viewing in Hendrix The- atre. The pop series was shown on Friday and Saturday nights and in- cluded such films as The Buddy Holly Story, Midnight Express, Foul Play, Clockwork Orange and The Godfa- ther. Attendance at these movies was very heavy as this program was one of the most popular offered by the Stu- dent Union. The committee spon- sored special double features and film festivals on weeknights and Saturdays that were also well attended by stu- dents. The Minority Arts Committee pre- sented a variety of events during the year.

Arts Festival and an International Dinner. The Special Attractions Committee presented concerts that were of small- er scope than those of Major Attrac- tions but bigger than the Coffeehouse presentations. The committee spon- sored a concert on the mall by Mike Williams in September and a perfor- mance by Gene Cotton in Wright Auditorium a week later. On March 24, Mr. Jack Daniels Original Silver Cornet Band appeared in Wright Auditorium for the committee’s final presentation of the year. The Theatre Arts Committee pre- sented several touring performances. Because of the acts’ high expense, the number of shows was limited, but their quality was excellent. The Pocket Mime Theatre was presented on Octo- ber 16 and 17 at Mendenhall. This performance was one of the most pop- ular shows of the year. Porgy and Bess was presented on November 8 as part of JUBILEE! On January 21 the com- mittee sponsored John Chappell as Mark Twain. The Diary of Adam and Eve brought musical comedy to cam- pus on April 16. The Travel Committee organized low cost trips for students and faculty during school breaks. The annual Thanksgiving trip to New York City received heavy participation by stu- dents. The low cost trip included transpor- tation and lodging for three nights. Students were on their own to explore their own interests in the city. Planned trips to Hawaii and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, fell through be- cause of a lack of student interest. The operation of the Student Union is directed by its president, who is selected by the organization’s Board of Directors. A Program Board consist- ing of the committee chairpersons and the president determined the priori- ties for programming and was the first step in the budgeting of the orga- nization’s nearly quarter of a million dollar budget. An unexpected change in the presi- dency of the Student Union occurred at the end of fall semester when Charles Sune’ resigned the job due to academic and career reasons. Suné’s decision to step down was prompted by a conflict between his studies and his interest in arranging concerts with his position of president. He was re- placed by Entertainer Committee chairperson Karen McLawhorn, who was also chosen president for the next term, which began in March. ee LEAL I LH ALE FIERO IER ELIE.

Open to ECU students, faculty and staff, the eight clubs provided recreational and social opportunities for members and the chance to compete with other groups. Funding for the clubs was provided jointly by the clubs them- selves and the intramural office. The Martial Arts Club is ECU’s ol- dest sport club. The club offers in- struction to male and female students, faculty and staff in the area of self defense, physical fitness and begin- ning through advanced karate. The club’s competitive team holds the number one ranking in the southeast- ern intercollegiate division. The 30- member team continued its winning streak by dominating the North Caro- lina State Championship, the South- ern Coast Tournament, the East Coast Tournament, the East Coast Invita- tional, and the Southeast Champion- ships. The club’s advisor and head in- structor is Bill McDonald, a sixth de- gree black belt and expert in the field who has led his club to being pro- claimed by a leading martial arts mag- azine as the most successful karate club in the United States in college and university level competition. The Ski Club offers opportunities for recreational skiing in addition to competitive events for its members. The club participated in NASTAR in- _— os tercollegiate events held in Snowe- shoe, West Virginia, and Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain in North Carolina. Members of the club also made several weekend trips to these resorts for recreational skiing. The Rugby Club is one of the fas- test growing sport clubs at ECU.

In 1979-80 a total of 31 of the club’s 59 members achieved their goals of 100, 500 or 1,000 miles. The club held meetings and semi- nars throughout the year with topics pertaining to running, cardiovascular fitness and techniques in swimming and biking. The sport club program gave all students the opportunity to compete in sports not offered on an intercolle- giate level. It also provided the chance to play just for fun. This rapidly growing program in the Department of Intramural and Recreational Ser- vices promises to expand further as more students, faculty and staff mem- bers take advantage of its many offer- ings.

Spay Oe i en oe een Effort The Arnold Air Society was origin- ally set up to enhance the Air Force and ROTC members by promoting community projects. Its membership is open to all ROTC cadets who have a 2.3 grade point average or better. The organization is an honorary, profes- sional and service group. The members of Arnold Air spon- sored several service projects during the year. The cadets held a Halloween Carnival at Boys Towne, and event they have sponsored for several years. The day included a horror house and several booths where the boys could play games and win prizes. The cadets also chaperoned the boys to several Rose High School football games held in Ficklen Stadium. The group also visited a nursing home in the area to spend some time with its residents and escort them to church. Second semester was highlighted by a picnic for all ROTC corps in March and the annual Military Ball sponsored by the society on April 29. The event was held at the Greenville Moose Lodge and featured the rock band of the Air Force Tactical Air Command. Alpha Delta Mu National Social Work Honor Society was founded in 1976 by Dr. J. Lawrence Feagins at Morgan State University. In 1977, Al- pha Delta Mu was incorporated in Maryland and became a national or- ganization as chapters were estab- lished in many colleges and universi- ties throughout the United States. The Theta chapter of Alpha Delta Mu was established at East Carolina Universi- ty on May 12, 1977. The primary objective of the group is to encourage and recognize superior scholarship in social work education and to advance excellence in social work practice. Under the national by- laws, members must be social work or social welfare majors in a program ac- credited by the Council on Social Work Education. Members must have earned six semester hours in social work with a grade point average of 3.3 or above and must be in the top 20 percent of their class. At Christmas the group sponsored a program with the National Associ- ation of Social Work for the residents of University Nursing Home. The group also co-hosted a hospice semi- nar and sponsored a social for all so- cial work majors in the spring. Phi Sigma Pi is an honorary and service fraternity open to all ECU stu- dents with a GPA of 3.3 or better. It stresses the fellowship, leadership, and scholarship of its members. The chapter was involved in several projects during the year. Members raised funds for their Todd Scholar- ship, which is given annually to three outstanding fraternity members. The group sponsored a bikini contest downtown to raise money for the Heart Fund and held an Easter Egg hunt for mentally retarded children. They also worked with the Pitt Coun- ty Association of Retarded Citizens to provide transportation and chaper- ones for the group to attend movies on Friday nights. The group was also involved in chartering a new chapter of Phi Sigma Pi at Converse College in Spartan- burg, SC. Phi Sigma Pi members were in- volved in many other campus organi- zations including the SGA, Student Union, Mens’ Residence Council, Womens’ Residence Council and the search committees for Vice Chancel- lors for Student Life and Institutional Advancement and Planning. 255 Honor And Service Groups An Organized ELON... The ECU Collegiate 4-H Club has as its purpose promoting better living through service to the campus, com- munity, state and nation, informing members of new opportunities for leadership, knowing extension work and workers and working with North Carolina Collegiate 4-H to further de- velop 4-H programs. The club’s major activity involved working with the Red Cross blood do- nation program. Members ran the te- lerecruitment program that scheduled appointments for donors at the Tar River Subcenter. The group also worked with blood give-ins at Wright Auditorium. At Christmas, club members visited the pediatrics ward at Pitt County Me- morial Hospital to present a play and decorate the Christmas tree. The group sponsored a booth at the Pitt County fair describing its work with the Red Cross and a display in several downtown stores during the Flue Cured Tobacco Festival. This dis- play’s purpose was to publicize 4-H and the tobacco industry “working to- gether for North Carolina.” Another important facet of the group is its work with the Pitt County 4-H Club. The ECU students assisted the local club by working on an indi- vidual basis with local club members and helping the local extension agent with programs. The Alpha chapter of Beta Kappa Alpha, the banking and finance fra- ternity, was chartered at East Carolina in 1976. Its purpose is to promote a fraternal fellowship among students interested in banking and finance and local practitioners in the financial community. Monthly meetings were highlight- ed with a speaker from one of the fi- nancial institutions in the communi- ty. The speakers answered questions and presented slide presentations and other informative programs. The year’s activities were highlighted by a field trip to Planter’s National Bank headquarters in Rocky Mount. The annual initiation banquet was held at Three Steers Restaurant. Mr. William Reagan, president of North State Savings and Loan Association, was the guest speaker at the event. Epsilon Pi Tau is the School of Technology’s honorary fraternity. To be eligible for membership, students must be enrolled in the school and have a grade point average of at least 3.0 and at least sixteen semester hours. The fraternity was involved with the Industrial Technology Club in providing labor, materials and money for the up-keep of the Pirate Ship. This year a new cannon was added to the ship with the help of fraternity 256 Organizations members. The group took a tour of the Union Carbide plant in Greenville and heard several speakers during the year. The annual initiation banquet was high- lighted with a speech by Cliff Belcher, the Vocational Director for the state of North Carolina. The fraternity also worked to estab- lish a scholarship for outstanding fra- ternity members, to be named after faculty member Kenneth L. Bing. 1 pe aes ceAR FE KARREVRI I A TRE ME ARE” SIRI te ANE SERA GIES LET ENGL NE ELROD IT ROM 2 TENSE PTT ERE AE TELE SLE OL LEE LL NBN LESNAR NOPE TIE Mr “opp nad agg? 2 ror a Collegiate 4-H Club: Linda Peele, Jane Harman, Laura Young, Dana Kennedy, Guy Dixon, Ka- ren McLawhorn, Melody Loughran, Dasha Efird.

Membership in the organization is limited to business education majors with a GPA of 3.0 and a class ranking in the upper 35 percent. This year the ECU chapter of Pi Omega Pi was named the number one chapter in the nation by the national organization. The basis for judging was the group’s work in local and state projects that benefitted the com- munity. The ECU chapter has won the honor two times before and according to president Barbara Woolard, “we've always been in the top ten.” At Christmas, Pi Omega Pi mem- bers provided a foster child in the area with clothing and toys. The group also sponsored a party which was open to all business students and fac- ulty. The annual Founder’s Day was cele- brated on February 12 with a social given for prospective members. The club then voted on applicants and ini- tiated them at a banquet in the spring. The organization’s major project of the year was the preparation and dis- tribution of Beta Kappa News, their annual publication. The booklet is distributed in April to members and alumni as a means of keeping in touch and soliciting donations for the four scholarships that are awarded annual- ly to Pi Omega Pi members. Phi Epsilon Kappa is a professional and honor fraternity for physical edu- cation majors. Membership is open to physical education majors with a grade point average of 2.5 or better. The organization was founded at ECU by Dr. Ray Martinez and was origin- ally open only to men. Women have been included in the group’s member- ship for several years. A major project of the group is working toward the construction of a physical fitness trail behind Minges Coliseum. Fraternity members held a car wash to raise funds for the project. The club has pushed for the trail’s construction for several years and has even obtained enough materials through donation by Greenville mer- chants to build the trail. A major hol- dup is the university's questioning of the proposed site as being too far re- moved from easy access to all stu- dents. During the spring members of the fraternity worked the concession stand at a swim meet sponsored by the Greenville Swim Club. PEK members and alumni spent a weekend at Myrtle Beach in April to round out the year for the organiza- tion. Sigma Theta Tau National Honor Society of Nursing recognizes achievement of superior scholarship and encourages a strong individual committment to the ideals and pur- poses of the field of nursing. The soci- ety recognizes excellence in baccalau- reate and higher degree programs. In the fall the society sponsored a symposium on research and writing. Members of the organization also par- ticipated in the Pitt County Associ- ation of Retarded Citizens’ bike-a- thon. The organization attended the family life conference on family vio- lence held in the spring. Sigma Theta Tau inducted 48 new members this year, raising the group’s total membership to 314. 259 Honor and Service Groups we OREN AE - nangEqts et ee 260 Fifteen social fraternities and eleven sororities provided ECU students with a variety of alternatives in their search to experience The Greek Life ADPis win awards.

Fletcher Music Scholarship and Diane Gray received the Panhellenic Scholarship. Sorority members were also active in the SGA, Phi Beta Lambda, the Marching Pi- rates and the cheerleaders. Alpha Phi sponsored the annual Greek Games during Greek Week. The games provided a chance for all Greeks to get together and socialize in a nonalcoholic setting. The sorority’s year was highlighted with the initiatiation of 19 new mem- bers in three pledge classes, which was one more class than in recent years.

Judges of the event were Deans Carolyn Fulghum and James Mallory and two students from the school of music. Winners this year were Kappa Alpha fraternity and Delta Zeta soror- ity. The sisters of Alpha Xi Delta opened and closed the competition with acts of their own that were not judged. “The whole purpose is just to get together for a good time,” said Ne- viles.

The group started their year with the annual Homecoming Party at the Lemon Tree Inn in Chocowinity. Jas- per’s Mobile Disco Inferno provided the entertainment for the evening. At Christmas, the fraternity co- sponsored a party for underpriviliged children along with the Alpha Omi- cron Pi sorority. Following the party, the two greeks got together for a so- cial. A pajama party and the annual 50’s party were the highlights of Spring Semester. During the pajama party the entire downstairs of their house became one large mattress.

The annual celebration, cospon- sored by the Intra Fraternity and Pan- hellenic Councils, was the year’s lar- gest get-together for Greeks. It includ- ed their friends, dates and alumni. Saturday, March 29, was the day the Greeks jammed the field that is the traditional site for the annual day of music, socializing and beer. “Every- one had to bring their own beer, be- cause the IFC is prohibited from using its funds to buy it,” said IFC President Mike Smith. There was still no short- age of it as the students relaxed to the music of Brice Street. The well known eastern Carolina based band was the “first big band at Mosier’s Farm in six or seven years, according to Smith. The idea of staging an outdoor par- ty was originated in 1967 by then-IFC President Dave Mosier, Jr., whose family owns the site, a farm on High- <3 way 43 located 1% miles from Green- ville. The large field on the Mosier’s property has been the site of the event since that time. A unique twist to its history is that in 14 years the event has never been rained out. “We came close to that this year,” said Smith. “It rained for two days before and after the event. During an entire week, the sun only showed up long enough for the band to set up, play and disband.” The staging of the party cost $2200 and took several months to plan. “The money took care of things like the rental on the farm, the band, security and portable toilets,’ said Smith. All the needed funds came from the IFC’s profits from several downtown happy hours and IFC and Panhellenic dues. The only cost to the students was the beer they had to bring themselves. The crowd, though large, was well- behaved. Admission tags were re- quired to control the attendance. “This crowd was the biggest and best behaved ever,” said Dave Mosier, Sr., owner of the farm. On the day after the concert, mem- bers of every fraternity and sorority gathered to clean up the area. ‘They left it looking better than they found it In the fourteen years that the con- cert has been held, there has never been a serious incident, which is sig- nificant considering that Mosier im- poses almost no rules on the use of his field. “It’s always been peace and hap- piness,” he said, “it’s really a great occasion. ’ ai Mosier s Farm 272 ee The Greek Life on: Sigma Phi Epsilon spent the year participating in many athletic, service and social activities.

The 60-member brotherhood won the recognition by totaling the most number of points in the annual com- petition. Phi Kappa Tau brothers were involved in the SGA as senior class and graduate school presidents and junior class vice president. Members were also involved in honor and ser- vice fraternities, team sports clubs and publications including The East Carolinian and WZMB-EM. Several fraternity members were big brothers for various sororities. All of these ac- tivities contributed to their point total and the award. The fraternity house was remodeled during the year, which was one of the group's major projects. The third floor living areas and the TV and par- ty rooms were completely rennovated by the brothers. For their part of Greek Week, the fraternity sponsored their annual Spring Fling, the only event that was open to all ECU students. The outdoor party featured a performance by the band “Talk of the Town.” Twenty five kegs of beer were on hand for the large crowd and prizes including a keg of beer and an all expense paid week- end at the beach were raffled off. Above: The Spring Fling was Phi Tau’s part of Greek Week. The event differed from other Greek Week happenings in that it was open to all ECU students. The truck which dispensed 25 kegs of beer eight ounces at a time was contin- ously swamped with thirsty students during the outdoor celebration.

The 40-member brotherhood was chartered in April, 1978, and is one of the fastest growing greeks at ECU. The major event of the year for the fraternity was the acquiring of a new house. The group moved into the old Ficklen Mansion on West Fifth Street in January. The house is nicer and bigger than the one the group vacated. Activities of the group included a Best Buns contest held at Twin Rinks Skating and a “Go To Hell, Iran” par- ty. Fraternity members held positions in several academic and honor frater- nities and the Intra Fraternity Coun- cil. The first annual Sig Tau-Miller Softball Tournament was sponsored in April. The weekend event had twelve teams participating with the winner receiving a beer bash at the house after the championship game.
