the faculty and administration.
For those students unfamiliar
with previous convocation
requirements, the l%9-70 AC

Programs Announced
By JIM ABBOTT
Dr. Arthur Wenger, president
of Atlantic Christian College,
and Robbie Steen, president of
the Sophomore class, recently
represented ACC at a
“President to Presidents’
conference in Washington D.C.
The purpose of the meeting was
to bring college students and
administrators from all over the
country to meet with
representatives of the Nixon
administration and “To Seek the
Answers Together” in relation to
the problems of student unrest.
In evaluating the meeting, Dr.
Wenger said, “I thought it was
very much worthwhile, as it
gave an opportunity for both
sides to have face to face con
tact.” He went on to say, “most
people went away feeling that
there were certain factors in
volved in the area of student
unrest that they hadn’t seen
before.” One thing that par
ticularly impressed Wenger was
the very real and genuine desire
amongst the students to find
solutions that will help to curg
student disorders on campuses.
In regards to the relevancy of
the meeting to the situation here
at ACC, Dr. Wenger felt it was
very relevant, noting that, “we
have concern in these areas on
campus, fortunately however.
Rock Band
To Appear
“Ernest Baker and Runaways
Combo,” a hard rock group
composed of several Fike High
and ACC students will present
their first live concert, Thur
sday, Oct. 15, at 8 p.m. in the Old
Gym.
The group is a revised version
of the same group that per
formed “Illumination of the
Mind” last year. For the past
month they have been rehear
sing in a patch of woods outside
of Wilson.
Howard Martin, one of the
leaders of the group said that
their repertoire includes hard
rock, some country music and
one piece with an electronic
tape. Martin noted that,
“everybody in the group writes
material, consequently we have
a wide variety of creative
styles.”
Martin went on to say that the
group wants the students to
come, listen to the music and
have a good time. “We plan to
play where we want to, for
people who enjoy our type of
music.”
No admission will be charged
for this performance. ID’s must
be presented at the door.
they haven’t exploded into the
kinds of violence that has
prevailed on other campuses.”
Among the speakers that Dr.
Wenger heard, he said Attorney
General Mitchell was the most
sharply questioned by the
students but he gave a good
account of himself
From a students viewpoint,
Steen said he was appalled by
the really hostile attitude a
minority of the students had
towards some of the speakers.
“Some of them were out for
blood in the question they
asked,” he noted, Steen said that
he was disappointed by
Secretary of Defense Laird who
was, “evasive in that he
wouldn’t answer the questions
put to him but instead, answered
questions that weren’t even
asked.” Most impressive to
Steen, was Secretary of the
Interior Walter Hickel, “who is
really on the job in the areas of
environment.”
Over 600 colleges and
univesities from across the
nation were represented ac
cording to Steen, including UNC-
Charlotte, Louisburg, and East
Carolina, from this area. The
meeting was sponsored by the
Association of Student Govern
ments which intends to sponsor a
similar meeting in February
involving only the student
representatives who attended
this recent meeting in
Washington.
Tell
It like
It Is!
“Pantiemonium” struck ACC again Monday night. The excitement
was faint compared to the merry attack staged a tew weeks
previously. To those who witnessed the first one were slightly bored by
Monday night’s carousing and did not even bother to climb out of bed.
The topic of this weeks Tell It
Like It is, is the Greek
organizations on A.C.C.’s
campus. This is the week of
fraternity smokers and sorority
quiet period, yet the rush is on.
We were interested in the dif
ferent opinions held by the
students concerning the
fraternial and sorority
organizations on campus.
B.W.S., Male — Fraternities are
a little too emphasized. It is
ridiculous to say that if you are
not in a fraternity, you’re not in.
There should be more for the
independant on campus.
T.B.F., male — The school
controls the whole thing too
much, but the guys are really
great! It seems to be worthwhile
to join.
D.S.H., male wish they had
co-ed fraternities. They should
liberalize the fraternal
regulations as they are now.
There should be more unity
between the Greeks and more
civic responsibility.
P.M.D., male — The guys that I
have met are not a big put on,
the atmosphere is great. The
fraternity parties gave you
something to do on the
weekends. Joining a fraternity
puts twenty to thirty guys on
your side, and that a good
feeling.
J.A.C. female—Fraternities and
sororoties have a lot to offer for
some of the people; but I wish
they would base their selection
more on the whole person rather
