Student Loan Plan Honor Roll
Revised, Approved
By HARRY PICKETT
The Student Government
Association, which approved a student
loan plan November 5, unanimously
approved a revised loan arrangement
suggested by Chowan business
manager Ben Sutton, at its January 21
meeting.
The Student Emergency Loan, which
it is called, will provide assistance in
times of crisis and financial difficulties.
The guidelines of the loan stipulate that
the student shall receive aide only for
medical emergencies and tran
sportation home for family
emergencies.
The loan plan also stipulates that a
student shall receive “$2S maximum
amount or up to $50 at the discretion of
the SGA committee.”
Students, who must have the
recommendation of an advisor, shall
have a 30-day period in which to pay
back the loan. After the 30-day period, a
7-day grace period will be im
plemented, and a penalty charge of 10
percent will be issued. If money is not
paid back in full, transcripts will be
held until the money is repaid.
The SGA Student Loan Committee
has also decided that a student must
have earned at least 12 credit hours at
Chowan. Also “an item of personal
property (watch, radio, etc.) must be
furnished as security. The item will be
returned when the loan is repaid.”
SGA will set aside $500 in the fund for
the assistance.
In other business. Social Chairperson
for Men, Greg Kaserman, presented the
legislature with a list of movies chosen
by the student body to be shown tins
semester. SGA approved the showing
and purdiase of 15 movies which will
cost approximately $5,500.
Many SGA members thought the
$5,500 amount for the movies was
outrageous, particularly treasurer
Steve Whittemore and representative
J.P. Leong. “There’s got to be
something else to entertain the students
with besides movies and dances,”
Fire Safety
Oversight
Discovered
By GREG BASSETT
Five of the six fire extinguishers
installed for use in Marks Hall are not
sufficiently charged to operate in the
event of fire, according to their utility
gauges. Tags on the devices reveal
(here has been no formal inspection of
tmir condition since January of 1972.
Manufacturer’s maintainance in
structions stamped or the water
propelling extinguishers state the
devices should be inspected every sue
months.
According to Jack Hassell,
Superintendent of Buildings and
Grounds, the fire extinguisher situation
in Marks Hall will be looked into and
corrected. He conceded that it had been
some time since the extinguishers had
been diecked, but said insurance and
building regulations were still in
compliance.
Hassell explained the company with
which the college is insured does not
require the diecking of extinguishers
except in important areas and that
extinguishers were not required in
Marks Hall. He said that extinguishers
were regularly inspected in important
fire-prone places such as mechanical
areas and Camp Science Hall.
Unlike the Marks Hall, Camp
Science Hall is equipped with carbon
dioxide extinguishers that would be
useful in several kinds of fire. In proper
working condition the water ex
tinguishers in Marks Hall, according to
Hassell, would be good only for small
fires such as trash can fires, and could
not be used on an electrical fire or any
fire of extreme size.
Hassell said the inspection tags may
be inaccurate and should be removed
from the Marks Hall extinguishers.
None of extinguishers have been
put to use since their last inspection.
Whittemore blasted.
Leong said picnic tables for example,
would be a good purchase, and would
serve the school long after all the
students on campus now have gone. “It
wouldn’t cost that much.”
The cost of the movies and the pur
chase of three bands this semester will
amount to $8,300. The total cost of the
bands Sand Castle, Tracks and Catalina
will amount to $2,800, leaving the
budget with $1,700.
“We made $1,300 off of movies last
semester,” Kaserman noted as a result
of the 50 cents fee. “You can almost
figure $1,600. this semester.”
Members of the legislature were also
informed that the student body grade
point average for the fall semester was
1.9893.

Energy
(Continued from Page 1)
Hassell, any budget surplus could be
used to add improvements to the
campus. He noted the tennis courts
behind parking lot number 4 and the
intramural field were both constructed
out of budget surpluses. He hinted that
energy conservation could save money
leading to further improvements.
Hassell said that all class halls were
set at 65 degrees as mandated by
federal law and are controlled by
timers. He explained that Whitaker
library is maintained at a higher
temperature because books require
proper humidity and temperatures to
insure their lasting.
Hassell outlined future energy saving
measures which included: additional
insulation in East and Jenkins Halls;
storm windows in several dorms;
removal of certain hght fixtures within
the dorms; better control of lighting
around campus; and a central com
puter which would regulate the use of -
electricity throughout the college.

Lady Braves Hit Highest Score
In Drubbing St. Mary's, 107-28
By KATHY FISHER
The Lady Braves won one of thiir
highest scoring games against St.
Mary’s on January 28. Chowan was
ahead 48-14 at the half and went on to
win by a score of 107-28.
According to Coach Roy Winslow,
this is the highest score a women’s
basketball team has made since he has
been here, but, he pointed out, it was
played against an extremely weak
team.
He added that “if we could win by one
point tonight (January 30, against
Louisburg), it would mean more than
this game.” He explained that there
was not enough challenge in the game
against St. Mary’s, whereas Louisburg
is a tough team and the challenge would
be greater.
In closing, Winslow stated that even
though it is nice to win a high scoring
game, if the other team is weak, the
win doesn’t seem to mean so much.
Sandy Dixon led the Braves in
baskets by scoring 18 points. She was
followed by Judy Douglas and Donnie
Stephens with 16, Nancy Fleming with
14 and Laura Brailsford with 11.
This win leaves the Lady Braves with
an overall record of 8 and 5.
