UNC officials battle drugs
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AD -
University of North Carolina offi-
cials say a new systemwide policy
for faculty, staff and students
sends a clear message that drugs
will not be tolerated on UNC
campuses.
"The campuses oi the Univer-
sity of North Carolina will in no
sense be havens iov those who
wish to experiment with illegal
drugs Board oi Governors
member David Whichard II said
Friday. "On the contrary, drug
abuse simply will not be tolerated
within this academic community:
You will be punished if vou abuse
drugs
The policy calls for minimum
penalties ranging from probation
to discharge or expulsion for spe-
cific penalties.
"Transgressions involving the
more dangerous types of drugs
are dealt with more severely than
are involvements with the less
dangerous drugs said
Whichard, the board's vice chair-
man and head of a committee that
worked for 10 months on the pol-
ice.
Whichard stressed that the
punishments could be more se-
vere than the police prescribes.
"Depending on the circum-
stances in each case, the respon-
sible campus authorities may
conclude that a more severe sanc-
tion is warranted he said.
Federal legislation last year
required universities to have
drug-abuse prevention programs
for staff, faculty and students or
risk losing federal financial aid.
All UNC schools met federal
guidelines by the late spring, but
the Board of Governors decideni it
was in the system'sbest interest to

policy oi minimum punishments.

Preparing for the cold
Caring for hypothermia
What is hypothermia?
People often think that hypoth-
ermia affects only those who fall
into icy water or who are stranded
in siv feet of snow. However, it
can occur in the fall, early spring,
and winter and may strike hikers,
campers, surfers, and other out-
doorsmen.
Hypothermia is a condition
which lowers the body's tempera-
ture and cuts off blood circulation
to vital areas of the body such as
the heart and brain. The feet, toes,
tingers and hands are usually the
first to suffer the effects of hypoth-
ermia since they are the first to be
deprived of blood and warmth.
When the body is exposed to
wind or sun, perspiration from
the body evaporates quickly; this
causes the blood to thicken and
circulation slows. The oxygen
supply to the muscles is also
slowed, so fatigue sets in quickly.
How do I know if 1 am getting By MARY ELESHA-ADAMS

and the body quits warming it-
self. When the body temperature
drops to 96-97 degrees, the body
begins to shake involuntarily; the
thinking process is dulled and
amnesia sets in a 95 degrees.

victim becomes sleepy; the victim
loses consciousness and the heart-
beat becomes erratic below 80
degrees; when the body's tem-
perature reaches 78 degrees, the
victim may die of cardiac andor

How can I keep from getting hy-
pothermia?
Hypothermia can be prevented
by drinking a quart of water or
fluids a day to replenish the sup-
ply of body fluids. Stay dry and
wear wind-proof clothing.
Argentina uprisings reported
RULNOS AIRES, Argentina
(AP) ? Thousands of soldiers
surrounded an army compound
with orders to crush a revolt by a
rebel army officer who was holed
up inside with 100 supporters,
vowing never to surrender.
Other uprisings in support of
the rebels, led bv Lt. Col. Aldo
Rico also were reported Sunday
is the army, navy and air force
were ordered to overtake Rico,
who escaped from house arrest on
Thursday.
The insurrection was the most
serious in Argentina since April
when Rico led a military revolt
demanding an end to prosecution
rf senior military officers accused
of human rights abuses during
eight years oi military rule.
President Raul Alfonsin told
the military branches to combine
efforts to end the chase with Rico,
which hean near Buenos Aires
and moved Sunday to the town of
Monte Caseros, 325 miles north-
east of the capital.
Rico told an impromptu news
conference his troops were "well-
supplied and will not surrender"
to an estimated 2,000 loyalist
forces surrounding them.
Loyal units also were reported
to be moving to control incidents
by Rico sympathizers in San Luis,
520 miles west of the capital, and
in Tucuman, 800 miles northwest.
The army said it arrested 13 offi-
cers in an uprising in Las Lajas,
680 miles southeast of Buenos
Aires. No shots were fired.
Gen. Huntcrto Fernicci, fifth
army corps commander, prom-
ised loyalist troops would open
fire on Rico and his men if they did
not end their revolt.
Automobiles equipped with
loudspeakers drove through
Montre Caseros on Sunday night,
warning the 18,000 inhabitants to
stay away from the rebel garrison.
The private news agency Noticias
Argentinas said more than 1,000
residents evacuated a neighbor-
hood bordering the base.
Local civilians jeered and
shouted insults at the rebel offi-
cers, who replied with obscene
gestures and threatening move-
ments of their automatic weap-
ons.
Rico, whose mutinies have re-
quired military intervention
twice in nine months, told news-
men that he was demanding the
replacement of Gen. Jose Caridi,
army chief of staff, by an officer
"with sufficient prestige and stat-
ure to lead the armed forces
In April, the 43-year-old Rico
led a military revolt demanding a
halt in the prosecution of senior
military officrers who were ac-
cused of human rights abuses
during the military rule of 1976-
1983.
Alfonsin's government has said
that during those years of military
rule, at least 9,000 people disap-
peared in the "dirty war" waged
by security units against sus-
pected left-wing subversives.
Human rights groups claim some
30,000 people vanished after
being picked up by government
agents.
The revolt ended peacefully,
and a few weeks later the govern-
ment passed a law protecting
most officers from prosecution.
Rico, a decorated veteran of the
1983 Falkland Islands war, was
under house arrest at a counrty
club outside Buenos Aires await-
ing trial in the April revolt when
he fled Thursday.

AIDS pamphlets incorporated into
high school english curriculum
GREENSBORO (AP) ?
Greensboro high school students
soon will find a new kind of litera-
ture in their English classes ?
AIDS pamphlets.
In May, the Greensboro school
s stem will begin teaching AIDS
prevention to its 6,600 high school
students. Administrators say they
decided to teach the course dur-
ing English classes because Eng-
lish is the only subject that all
students must take every year.
The AIDS curriculum is written
just for seventh-graders, but
Greensboro will include grades 8-
12 this first year to teach all stu-
dents about AIDS prevention be-
fore they graduate
However, the English teacher
will not alwavs be the AIDS in-
structor. Principals will decide
which teachers to trau,fpj: the
curriculum. ??'
The system's 3,000 seventh- and
eighth-graders will be taught
AIDS prevention in their regular
health classes. Next year, only
seventh-graders will get AIDS
education.
The lessons, which will require
at least two hours of instruction,
will explain measures that will
lessen the risk of contracting
AinS, deluding use of condoms
duY6 sexual activity.
?:t, Associate Superintendent
Sancrde Campbell said, the cur-
riculum will give much greater
emphasis to not engaging in sex-
ual intercourse and not using
drugs as the only sure way to
avoid AIDS.
Campbell unveiled prelimi-
nary plans.ip? the curriculum to
the- Greensboro Board Of
Education's curriculum commit-
tee Wednesday.
AIDS, or acquired immune de-
ficiency syndrome, has struck 23
people in Guilford County and
423 in the state as of December.
In July, the General Assembly
passed a law requiring that AIDS
prevention be taught in school
starting this year. The legislature
instructed the N.C. Department
of Public Instruction to write the
curriculum. Parents will be noti-
fied before teachers start teaching
the curriculum, Campbell said. If
they object to the instruction, they
can remove their children from
the class.

EMCTLV WHY
VttfvEGQ'KA HAVE A
mJtiSal Houwy for
THAT GUY
This past weekend was a time for
reflection and thought as the nation
both rejoiced and mourned in the
remembcrance oi Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr.
We rejoiced in the dream: King's
dream of a world of peace and to-
getherness, where a person is a per-
son and there is no prejudice. We
rejoiced in remembering King's
teachings of peaceful resistance. In
today's world, with its constant
threats of terrorism and war, King's
message that intellectual and spiri-
tual strength are mightier than
physical torce is one that we desper-
ately need to hear.
But we mourned the physical force
that took King from our midst. We
mourned the violence in Memphis,
Term on April 4, 1968, that ended
the dream for King. It wras sadly
ironic, but predictable, that the life
of a man who onlv wanted to love
was ended by the hate that he fought
all his life.
Martin Luther King Jr. the man
ied on that day, but the most im-
portant parts of King, his ideas and
his dreams, live on today.
Much progress has been made in
the arena of civil rights since King's
oath. Legal segragation is a think of
the past, and children of all races
play together peacefully in back-
yards, schoolyards and play-
grounds across the nation. In-
creased opportunities for education
and equal opportunities in the work
place have meant minorities have
more input, more power, than ever
before in deciding the events that
shape their lives.
Progress has been made, but there
i s still a long way to go. We cannot be
blind to the overt and subtle racism
that exist today among people of all
races.
Racism is evident on campus. It
would be impossible to count the
number of times "nigger" has been
scribbled on bathroom stalls, library
carols and desks across the univer-
sity. By the same token, profane
messages are also written about cau-
casions, and prejudice does not
draw racial lines: we see remarks
about religion, politics and national-
ity as well.
Some people even charge that ra-
cism played no small part in the
election controversy that raged last
spring. This is not the place for that
determination to be made, but evi-
dence has shown that students of all
races may have participated in some
form of racism during the election.
But the spectre of racism is not
always so open. We are becoming
more and more aware of subtle
forms of racism as they exist in
today's society. Attitudes, tones and
demeanors can be as damaging as
speech and overt action. Economic
racism, especially through govern-
ment cuts in educational funding,
will hurt the chances for poor people
of all races to get the education they
want and deserve.
Nationally, we rediscovered ra-
cism on a grand scale Saturday
when the remarks of Jimmy 'The
Greek" Snyder were made public
and he was fired from CBS. Snyder's
inflamatory remarks about blacks in
athletics were innapropriate, but
they highlighted more than ever the
ingrained prejudice that pervades
the world.
World wide we are faced with the
South African situation, perhaps the
most abhorrent case of racism left
today. As long as the white South
African minority government is al-
lowed to control the black majority
in such a domineering way, there
can be no justice in the world. It is
time for the U.S. and the rest of the
world to take a firm stand and force
Botha and his government to make
some true political reforms and give
freedomto the native africans.
More than a way of behaving,
prejudice is a way of thinking. The
only way to stop prejudice is to
change that way: to think of every-
one as being truly equal, and to ig-
nore such trivial factors as skin color
and national origin.
As students and the future leaders
of this country, we are charged with
changing the attitudes that pervade
today's society. We cannot allow
prejudice to stand in the way of
progress. We cannot allow our-
selves to be prejudiced or to single
out groups for discrimination.
Most of all, we cannot allow our-
selves to forget Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr. or, more importantly, the
ideas and dreams for which he gave
up his life.
King's dream is still alive for us

The life of King and his ultimate sacrifice provide us with
the inspiration to not only deepen our dedication to the goals
for which he gave us so much, but also to set goals ourselves
and to strive toward reaching those goals inspite of obstacles.

Poverty gives a harsh lesson to teacher
?xi To
By KAREN ROSE
Special to The East Carolinian
My first year of teaching, I worked in
an inner-city school in Greensboro. The
student population was split into two
districts parts ? one that inhabited the
"old money country club neighbor-
hood that had been taken over by the
goowing city and the other part made
up of students from poor families that
inhabited the noisy, overcrowded fed-
eral housing project adjacent to the
school grounds.
The "project kids as they had been
labeled by older, more experienced, and
certainly more calloused teachers, came
to school for the free lunches that state
and federal funding provided. These
kids sat willingly through four hours of
class each morning ? not because they
were interested in learning about simi-
les, metaphors, or the symbolism in
Shakespeare's romances, but because
they were interested in eating. Filling
their stomachs seemed a much more
useful and practical reason for coming
to school than did filling their minds
with poetic language. I couldn't under-
stand their disinterest in the world I was
trying to open to them through my
teaching of great literature.
The housing project and the absolute
despair that provided a way of life for its
residents brought out a hositlity and
violicnce new to the novice teacher who
had grown up in comfortable suburbia.
Few Mondays passed without my stu-
dents telling me horror stories about the
beatings, knifings and break-ins that
had beset the project during the previ-
ous weekend. I listened with half an car
to the tales I knew were exaggerated
and impatiently assured the kids that,
while I didn't live in the project, I wasn't
so gullible that I'd believe every tall tale
they told.
Just before Christmas that year, I
called the mother of a student who had
been a constant, belligerent and uncon-
trollable behavior problem in class. I
had, I complained to the parent, tried
every disciplinary strategy I knew, but
none had succeeded. Judy's behavior, I
sanctimoniously told the girl's mother,
was making it impossible for me to
teach the rest of the class.
She listened in silence to my list of
specific complaints and then quietly
assured me, "Judy won't give you no
more problems
And she was right.
The day after my phone call, Judy
came to class-swollen, bruised, and
conquered. Gone was the child whose
animosity had kept me constantly on
my toes. The girl standi ig before me
was only a shell of the Judy I'd foughtso
hard to teach.
"Don't you be callin' my n igain,
MizRose she whispering almost inau-
diblv as she looked at the fli I'll do
whatever you want from nov
All my idealistic dreams for teaching,
inspiring, and changing the v. orld died
that day with Judy's spirit. This world
? the world of poverte and it- resulting
violence ? was one for which I was
completely unprepared.
Six months later, I moved to teach
in a private school where, to my new
students, poverty and the daily trage-
dies that were a part of it were as alien as
they had been to me a few months ear-
lier. But I couldn't forget that I had run.
I knew that by leaving Greensboro 1 had
been defeated by the same S stem that
had conquered Judy.

Smokers should be aware of dangers they face
On "60 Minutes" recently, a segment was devoted
to the preponderance of heavyweight legal power
defending the tobacco companies, up against the
httle old lady left with only a fragment of her lung,
who was suing the tobacco companies for a few
million dollars. Mike Wallace was the host, and
with characteristic candor) he flashed back to the
old days when cigarette smoking was thought to be
entirely harmless. He gave the viewers a fragment of
a paid ad featuring Ronald Reagan, pushing some
cigarette or another, and a second quick flash of
Mike Wallace, in the bad old days, merchandising
rhilip Morris cigarettes.
The planted axiom of the "60 Minutes" segment
was very plain. What it said was: You can't beat the
cigarette companies' legal dreadnoughts with
small-time lawyers. Moreover, the heavy legal
people, earning $200 per hour, are harassing the
plaintiffs, asking them whether they had any record
of illegitimate children, venereal diseases, club feet
? anything to persuade the judge or jury that the
lung cancer was not necessarily the result of heavy
smoking.
Two reminiscences in point:
In the mid-SCs, Mike Wallace launched a net-
work interrogatory, and his very first guest was
Mississippi Sen. James Eastland. Wallace's reputa-
tion as a dragon-slayer was legendary, and much of
the world tuned in to see what, if anything, would be
left of Sen. Eastland at the end of the half-hour.
The viewing world was astonished. Wallace be-
haved like Dinah Shore, and Sen. Eastland wind-
bagged his way through the entire period without so
much as a whisker's opposition from the great inter-
rogator. It was a while later that I asked Wallace how
it was that he had lain down with the lion. He told
me: "Do you know what that s.o.b. said to me like 20
seconds before we went on the air? He said to me,
'Mike? If yo'all asks me any question I don' think
quite fair, I'm gonna ? Wallace went through the
morion of reaching into his pocket as Eastland had
done, pulling out a package of cigarettes, offer you
one of these Philip Morris cigarettes, and I'm gonna
say, Mike: Here, hep yo'self to a nigger cigarette"
In those days, any identification of a brand name
as a product associated with blacks would have
meant, roughly speaking, the end of the commercial
affair. Ggarette smoking wasn't a question of
health, but of caste. Philip Morris wanted to be an
image cigarette. The social emphasis these days is on
the harm cigarettes do to the ingnorant classes.
A second reminiscence. Two months ago, a
scholar died in New Haven, Conn a gentleman of
cosmopolitan training and superior intelligence. He
read Sanskrit as readily as English, and he knew
exactly what it meant when, opening one of his
(three per day) cigarette packages he read the warn-
ing that tobacco is in the opinion of the surgeon
general dangerous to your health.
Mike Wallace tells us now on TV that more people
die every year from having smoked cigarettes than
from drunken driving, whooping cough, hiccups
and listening to Democratic orators. Those of us who
are not equipped to make independent scientific
judgments have only our senses to go by, and the
answer to the question, "Are cigarettes harmful and
in many cases deadly?" is plainly yes to the moder-
ately alert person, never mind the Renaissance
scholar.
Now, we can see from the way in which "60
Minutes" treated the cigarette question exactly what
the anti-nicotine strategy is. It is to persuade some-
one, somewhere along the line, that tobacco isn't
merely a pleasurable sensual distraction, like the
kind of thing Ronald Reagan and Mike Wallace used
to push. It is not to be confused with pickles, or
chilies jalapenos. It is, rather, in a class with mari-
juana and cocaine: a drug consumed with a high
incidence of mortal consequence.
This does not automatically alter the legal picture.
The lady on "60 Minutes so arrantlv indignant
with the tobacco companies, was not asked by Mike
Wallace the question: "How much pleasure did you
take from smoking during the 37 years you acknowl-
edge having smoked?"
On The Right
By
William F. Buckley Jr.
It isn't that such a question is too highbrow to ask
a humble ex-smoker. If it had been asked of the
Renaissance scholar, he'd have answered: "1 took
huge pleasure from smoking Whether he'd have
said, on his deathbed, that he was glad to have taken
up the habit in early life, one can't say. But that, after
all, is an unfair question. It is like asking Mata Hari
when she was against the wall before the firing
squad, whether she was glad to have adopted espio-
nage as a profession.

DEAR RUSHEE: While it may not be
apparent to you, the decision to join a
college fraternity may be among the most
important and rewarding decisions of
your life. Any fraternity can supplement
your college education, offering personal
development and enhancement of char-
actor. I lowever, its up to you, through
your individual effort, to make it a suc-
cess and got the fulfillment you desire.
The knowledge your gain, the brothers
with whom you associate and the experi
ernes you will have make it possible to
form a special closeness that you may
have left behind with high school. Unlike
joining other organizations during your
college days, membership in Pi Kapppa
Alpha Fraternity does not end upon

Critics say Contra aid would hurt peace aims
WASHINGTON (AP) ? Presi-
dent Reagan could kill the peace
process in Central America if he
ignores Nicaragua's promise to
hold cease-fire talks and contin-
ues to push for new military aid to
the Contra rebels, congressional
critics say.
The White House says Reagan
will ask Congress for additional
Contra aid despite Nicaraguan
President Daniel Ortega's prom-
ise during a regional summit on
Saturday to open direct cease-fire
talks with the rebels.
Congressional observers at the
summit said Sunday that such a
move by the administration
would be a grave mistake.
" Li terally, any contra aid would
kill the peace process said Rep.
David E. Bonior, D-Mich one of
five Democratic congressmen
asked by House Speaker Jim
Wright, D-Tcxas, to attend the
summit.
The head of a similar Senate
delegation, Democrat Christo-
pher Dodd of Connecticut, said an
administration request for Contra
aid would not be in the interest of
peace efforts in central America.
"If, in fact, we see the kind of
commitment we've seen over the
last 24 hours, then I believe the
administration would be wise not
to even make the request and not
have to get to a vote and a fight in
Congress Dodd said on NBC's
"Meet the Press
However, Sen. John McCain, R-
Ariz who traveled to Central
America with Dodd, said he fears
tha t Nicaragua's leftist Sandinista
government will not act in good
faith.
"That is strictly cosmetic and
minimal adherence to the agree-
ments and thereby attaining the
goal which they seek, which is not
democratization of Nicaragua but
is a cutoff of aid to the Contras
he said on the NBC program.
Dodd suggested that if Ortega
fails to follow through on his
announced plans, "then he would
face not only the wrath of the
United States but more impor-
tantly, and this is most important,
the wrath of his Central American
neighbors
Ortega said Saturday that his
government will open talks with
the rebels, possibly this week. He
also lifted a 6-year-old state of
emergency in his country.
But a White House spokesman
said Sunday that the develop-
ments would not change
Reagan's plan to seek new Contra
aid.
'The president is committed to
suporting the resistance said
spokesman Roman Popaduik,
adding that "pressure by the
Nicaragua resistance is what
brought the Sandinistas to the
negotiating table
He said Reagan is expected to
make a formal request to Con-
gress for more aid on January 26,
the day after he delivers his State
of the Union address.
The administration had
planned to ask for a $270 million,
18-month aid package for the
Contra rebels last year, but never
proposed it formally because of
complaints that it would interfere
with the peace process.
Ortega's announcement came
at the close of a two-day Central
American summit meeting in the
Costa Rican capital of San Jose,
where the Nicaraguan president
had been under heavy pressure
from other reonal leaders to
comply with the regional peace
plan signed in Guatemala on Aug.
7.
Alejandro Bendana, secretary
general of the Nicaraguan For-
eign Ministry, on Sunday warned
the Reagan administration
against seeking more aid for the
rebels.
"One more dollar for the Con-
tras may just mean the end of the
Central American peace plan
Bendana said in an interview
from Managua on "Meet the

King birthday observed
N.C General Assembly Press
Release
RALEIGH ? In one of its first
acts of the 1987 General Assem-
bly, the North Carolina Legisla-
ture honored the memory of civil
rights activist Martin Luther King
Jr. by making the third Monday in
January a paid holiday for state
employees. January 19, 1988
marks the first such celebration of
the King holiday.
The 1983 General Assembly
had put Reverend King's birth-
day, January 15, on a list of legal
public holidays. Legal public holi-
days are ones observed by the
state but not necessarily given as
time off with pay to state employ-
ees. The 1987 law brought North
Carolina into line with federal
policy.
In 1981, the General Assembly
passed a resolution commemo-
rating Reverend King, saying that
"throughout his life (Dr. King)
advocated nonviolent action to
obtain equal rights for minorities
and counseled his followers to
show compassion, fairness, un-
derstanding, and even love to
those who opposed the civil rights
movement (King) lived and
died for the principles of equality,
humanity, and harmony among
the people of America
Dr. King was born in Atlanta on
Jan. 15, 1929 and was shot and
killed in Memphis, Tennessee on
April 4,1968. He was an ordained
Baptist minister and received the
degree of Doctor of Philosophy
from Boston University in 1955.
King first won national attention
in 1955 through his work to put an
end to racial segregation in
Montgomery, Alabama. In 1964,
Dr. King received the Nobel Peace
Prize and became, at 35, the
youngest man in history to win
the prestigious award.
State employees receive 11 paid
holidays per calendar year. The
State Personnel Commission de-
cides which paid holidays, in
addition to King's birthday and
Veterans Day, state employees
will be granted.

No violence reported in new Haiti
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP)
Opposition leaders claimed
credit tor a "ridiculously low"
voter turnout in 1 laiti's presiden-
ts! election but the government
and major candidates proclaimed
the vote a success.
No violence was reported in the
junta-run election, but there were
reports ot bribery, people voting
more than once and ineligible
voters casting ballots. An earlier
attempt to hold the nation's first
presidential election in 30 years
was canceled Nov. 29 when thugs
killed at least 34 people.
Election officials today were
countingballots to see if any of the
11 candidates won an outright
majority. If not, a runoff will be
held Jan. 31 to determine the next
president of this impoverished
Caribbean nation.
The military led government
refused to release any results or
voter turnout figures after the
polls closed Sunday evening.
State-run television provided
no figures but showed voters
lined up at polling stations and
made references to an "electoral
avalanche" that represented "a
major turning point in Haitian
history
But Marc Bazin, who ran in the
aborted Nov. 29 presidential elec-
tion and who led the call for a
boycott of Sunday's vote, said no
more than 20 percent of the 3 mil-
lion eligible to vote turned out.
Gerard Bissainthe, political
coordinator for a coalition of
opposition groups, estimated the
turnout at less than 10 percent.
'The participation was ridicu-
lously low in most areas. The
general impression is, the boycott
was remarkable success he said.
Bazin and the three other lead-
ing candidates from the Novem-
ber election refused to take part in
Sunday's election, claiming it

ment report says
The anti-drug operation involv-

States and Mexico $118 million

farmers are finding ways to in-
crease production, says a report
released Friday by the General
cuinting Office The program

- and Mexican officials dis-
the effectiveness of drug
eradication efforts in Mexico.
The Mexicans point to spec-
tacular success by 25,000 ground
ass gned to the anti-drug
effort and say it would take more
planes to destroy more crops.
The GAO report discounts the
Mexican claims, quoting U.S. offi-
cials as saying the Mexicans re-
ported in 1986 that they destroyed
more crops than were planted,
and that was in a year when
Mexico overtook Colombia as the
United States' major foreign sup-
plier oi marijuana with 37 percent
of the illegal market.
The GAO, which does investi-
gations for Congress, says the
planes are under-used, mainly
because pilots are underpaid and
maintenance is slow.
The State Department, in a let-
ter accompanying the report,
agreed not to ask for any more
aircraft until it can determine how
efficiently the present 55 helicop-
ters and 28 fixed-wing planes arc
being used.
The report says usage has
averaged 46 hours a month per
plane, although they reasonably
could be flown for 80 hours each.
U.S. officials last year estimated
that Mexican heroin made up
about 40 percent of the U.S. sup-
ply, more than double the amount
smuggled in five years ago.
"Mexico is a major source of the
heroin and marijuana which en-
ters the United States, and the

port which which was submitted
to Congress this week.

them to remote areas, planting on
steep ravines or under trees or
using camouflage techniques, the
report says.
In recent years, they have be-
come bolder with marijuana and
poppy crops spotted adjacent to
farmhouses and other crops. If
they are sprayed, the farmer
comes out and washes off the
herbicide, harvests his crop or
simply plants another one, the
report says.
The report partly blamed the
depresssed Mexican economy,
which has made illegal farming
more attractive financially, and
said peasants who work on illegal
crops can earn twice their regular
pay.
The report also mentioned
Mexican corruption as a possible
hindrance to the eradication pro-
grambut said it did not pursue the
issue.
The State Department, in a let-

CHARLOTTE (AP) ? Three
Soviet educators who visited the
University of North Carolina at
Charlotte say their country is will
ing to promote better relation-
ships with American Universi-
ties.
"1 think it's very important to
step on thib road Leonid lva-
novich Kiselovski, president of
Eyelo Russian State University,
said Friday. "1 hope it will be fruit-
ful for educators in the Soviet
Union and in the United States to
encourage a mutual understand-
ing between the two countries
Vladimir Pavilovich Shcvch-
enko, president of Donctski State
University, noted the similarity
between his school in the Ukraine
and UNC-Charlotte.
"Both shcools have about 11,000
students and are very similar in
specialities and faculties he
said. "1 think by the beginning of
next year this kind of relationship
will be developed between more
universities
Shevchenko and Kiselovski,
along with Edgar Vladimirovich
Linde, minister of higher educa-
tion in the Soviet Union, said they
hoped their tour of American
schools would pave the way for a
continuing exchange program
between mid-size universities in
the U.S. and the Soviet Union.
"My university has many con-
tacts with other universities in
other countries Kiselovski said.
"Unfortunately, our contacts with
schools in the United States are
not as well developed. This is not
a good thing
The Soviet delegation was es-
corted by UNC-Charlotte Chan-
cellor E.K. Fretwell Jr.
The Soviet educators arrived in
New York on Wednesday and
spent one day in Washington be-
fore embarking on a two-week
tour of seven American universi-
ties. The trip is being sponsored
by the American Association of
State Colleges and Universities.
Linde said through an inter-
preter that while it was too early
to draw any conclusions about
higher education in the U.S he
was impressed with what he hac
seen so far at the City University
of New York and UNC-Charlotte
"The auditoriums are so full,
some students were even sitting
on the floor he said. 'They're
obviously very interested. 1 also
like the high level of library serv-
ices
A delegation of American educa-
tors is expected to make a similar
journey to the Soviet Union in
April. Fretwell said he would
jump at the opportunity to go if he
were invited.
"My only regret is that they can-
not stay longer he said after
exchanging gifts with his Soviet
counterparts. Fretwell presented
the three with books on Charlotte
and school T-shirts.
After Linde presented Fretwell
with a book of photos on his na-
tive Latvia and Shevchenko
matched it with one depicting his
native Donctski as the "City of
Roses Fretwell asked Kiselovski
if he'd like to talk about Minsk.
"I have a few words about
Minsk, but I have no book
Kisclovki quipped.
Before they fly home on Jan. 26,
the Soviets will have visited Flor-
ida Central University in
Orlando, Louisiana State Univer-
sity at Shrcvcsport, Grambling,
Louisiana Tech and one of the
campuses of the State University
of New York.
Fretwell told his visitors that
UNC-Charlotte has 610 interna-
tional students from 60 foreign
countries. "This is a good time to
begin work on adding a 61st coun-
try ? the Soviet Union he said.
Not to be outdone, Kiselovski
said 1,000 students from 84 foreign
countries are currently enrolled at
Byelo.
"We hope to make the United

Bloom accused of living another's life
RALEIGH, N.C. (AT) ? David
P. Bloom was denied admission to
the fraternity of his choice be-
cause he tried to be someone he
was not, and it appears that he
made th? same mistake when he
set up shop in New York as a
money manager.
"He wanted to live this lifestyle
that wasn't really his said Bob
Levitan, a Durham businessman
who was president of Beta Theta
Ti when Bloom rushed the frater-
nity.
"You can't try to be something
you're not Levitan said. "I think
people can see through that
Last week, Bloom, 23, a 1985
Duke graduate, agreed to settle a
civil action filed against him by
the Securities and Exchange
Commission that accused him of
spending more than $8 million of
clients' money on fast cars, fine art
and expensive real estate.
Bloom also was charged in fed-
eral court Thursday with one
count of mail fraud in connection
with the case. If convicted, he
could be sentenced to serve five
years in prison and to pay a
$250,000 fine.
Bloom had attended an exclu-
sive Manhattan prep school and
apparently came from a well-to-
do family. During his first
semester at Duke, he and a friend,
Spencer M. Waxman, ran an in-
vestment fund out of their dormi-
tory rooms.
Waxman declined to be inter-
viewed, but released a prepared
statement.
"Although 1 knew David when and the paintings it had received,
we were both students at Duke
University, my relationship with
him ended before any of his ap-
parent misdoings began
Waxman said. "Recent events
concerning him and his business
were as surprising to me as they
appear to be to others who know-
lot of pain to Duke. We just want
it to be over
Before entering Duke in the fall
of 1982, Bloom had attended the
Trinity School, a primary and
secondary day school on
Manhattan's upper west side, for
nine years. The school's 1987-88
tuition of about $9,000 rivals the
price tag at manv colleges.
In September 1982, Waxman
and Bloom formed an investment
club, convincing some of their
dormitory mates to buy one or
more $100 shares of their invest-
ment fund. They promised prog-
ress reports and weekly strategy
meetings, several of the investors
said.
Richard T. Recce, who now sells
industrial equipment for his
family's firm in Dallas, said when
he got out of the fund after about

Bloom's purchases included
$4.7 million of art, an $830,000
three-bedroom condominium on
Manhattan's upper east side, a
$1.9 million Long Island beach
house, a $60,000 Mercedes-Benz
and a $139,000 Aston Martin con-
vertible, a $30,000 pearl necklace
and a $195,000 diamond and
platinum necklace. He also gave
two paintings and made a $1 mil-
ion pledge to Duke.
The school announced last
week it would return the money
several months and he lost half

During the fall of their sopho-
more year, Bloom and Waxman
opened Club Soda, a nightclub volved at that time.
Bloom, however, apparently
kept the investment club going,
and by 1984 he was skimming
some of the money for personal
use, the SEC has charged.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) ? A
decline in nursing scores at North
Carolina Central University and

The panel said the schools must

their nursing programs.
At NCCU, in Durham, 46 per-

report on the state's nursing pro-

At N.C. A&T State, in Greens
boro, 50 percent of nursing gradu-
ates taking the exam in 1987
passed the exam. Both scores re-
flected significant declines from
the previous vear, when 87.5 per-

schools to post a 60 percent pass-
ing rate on the exam during any
given year and a 70 percent pass-
ing rate over any three-year pe-
riod.
Nationally, about 89 percent of
students taking the nursing exam
for the first time pass.
Among the nine UNC cam-
puses that oltcr nursing degrees,
79 percent passed the exam in
1987, campared with 88 percent in
1986.
Raymond Dawson, the UNC
system's senior vice president for
academic affairs, said he was
concerned about the 15 percent
drop since 1981 in the number of
students taking the nursing exam.
Declining pass rates, combined
with the apparent waning interest
in the profession, mean the na-
tionwide nursing shortage will
get worse before it gets better,
Dawson said.
Dawson said that unless pane!
members objected, UNC system
President CD. Spangler Jr. woulo
inform school officials that they
had until the end of ?988 to post
the minimum 60-percent passing
rate.
Low passing latcs on the nurs
ing exam have plag;ed several
UNC campuses in i a past.
NCCU's program is m trouble
with the state licensing board,
having been cited last year for
imcomplete admission policies,
poorly kept records and curricu-
lum problems. The program vas
nearly shut down in the late 1970s
because ot low passing rates, in-
adequate faculty and library re-
sources. Since then, system offi-
cials havo revamped the curricu-
lum and upgraded faculty.
A&T'r, nursing program had
made considerable strides in re-
cent years, increasing its pass rate
to a high of 87.5 percent in 1984
from 15 percent in 1975.
It 1987 passing rates for other
nursing programs in the UNC
system were 75.6 percent at East
Carolina University, S7 percent at
UNC-Chapel Hill, 87 percent at
UNC-Charlotte, 73.6 percent at
UNC-Greensboro, 100 percent at
UNC-Wilmington, 88.2 percent at
Western Carolina, and 75 percent
at Winston-Salem State Univer-
sity.

Ortega promises freedoms
MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP)
? The government promised to
lift a 6-year-old state oi emer-
gency that strictly limits civil
rights, but it also rounded up six
opposition leaders and accused
some of them of them oi plotting
terrorist acts.
Sources in the presidential of-
fice, speaking condition oi ano-
nymitv, said Sunday that Presi-
dent Daniel Ortega would move
Monday to lift the state oi emer-
gency.
The emergency order sus-
pended the right to demonstrate,
strike, move about the country
freehand receive a speedy trial, it
also allowed police to make ar-
rests without a court order.
But Bavardo Arce, one of the
nine directors of the governing
Sandinista National Liberation
Front, warned that the freedoms
may not last long if the U.S. Con-
gress approves more aid for the
Contras.
Responding to pressure from
Nicaragua's neighbors and a pro-
posal for more U.S. aid for the
rebels, Ortega said at the end of a
five-nation Central American
summit on Saturday that he
would restore the suspended
freedoms and begin direct cease-
fire talks with the Contras, as
early as this week.
In a rancorous weekend meet-
ing in Costa Rica, Ortega and the
presidentsot El Salvador, Hondu-
ras, Guatemala and Costa Rica
did not extend last Friday's dead-
line for complying with a regional
peace agreement thev signed
Aug. 7.
The accord calls, among other
things, for cease-fires, greater
democratic freedoms and an end
to outside aid for the area's insur-
gencies.
At least three of the presidents
demanded that Ortega more fully
comply with the plan's call for
greater democracy and a cease-
fire with the contras.
Before agreeing to face-to-face
talks with the Contras, Ortega's
government held only indirect
talks with the rebels in which
Cardinal Miguel Obando y Bravo,
the Roman Catholic Archbishop
of Managua, acted as mediator.
The two meetings were held in
the Dominican Republican be-
cause Ortega refused to agree to a
meeting in Central America. But,
he also backed down on that point
Saturday, saying the direct talks
would be held in San jose, Costa
Rica.
Ortega also pledged at the
weekend meeting to grant am-
nesty to political prisoners ar-
rested after 1981 when a cease-fire
with the Contras is reached or
immediately, if a country outside
Central America is willing to re-
ceive them.
In Miami, rebel leader
Aristedcs Sanchez said Ortega's
moves were "a ploy to win time
and a favorable vote from Con-
gress

Presidential candidates fire shots
amid debates and tax form releases
(AP) ? With a key campaign
test looming three weeks from
Monday in Iowa, Democratic and
Republican presidential contend-
ers are firing shots at one another
along battle lines drawn in a pair
oi weekend debates.
Two candidates also raised
concerns about race relations in
America, as the nation Monday
observed a holidav ded'eated to
-lain civil rights leader Martin
Luther King, jr.
Jesse Jackson met Sunday in
Washington with Jimmy "The
Greek" Snvder, fired from his job
aa CBS sports commentator for
his remarks about black athletes.
lackson, who had earlier criti-
cized Snvder's remarks, praised
him for apologizing and said
Snvder should not be the "scape-
goat" for institutionalized racism
in sports or television.
Sen. Paul Simon, D-lll mean-
while, said at a weekend forum in
Iowa he was worried about what
he called a widening rift between
the nation' hi cks and Jews.
Boih Simon and jackson were in
Atlanta today for the King holi-
day. Gary Hart, too, was cam-
paigning in Georgia today.
On the Republican side, former
Delaware Go. Pete du Pont re-
nounced his claim to any part oi
Super Tuesday's biggest prize ?
Texas, with its 110 delegates.
Du Pont asked Saturday that his
name be taken off the state's
March 8 primary ballot becauseof
forged signatures that turned up
on his primarv petitions.
Texas officials said it was too
late to do that, but said any votes
du Pont received would be
counted as uncommitted. Several
other candidates' petitions are
being checked as well. The con-
tenders all have denied any
wrongdoing.
Sen. Bob Dole fired the latest
salvo in a paper war with chief
GOP rival George Bush, releasing
21 years of tax returns and details
about his wife's blind trust.
But the documents, released
Saturday, left some questions
unanswered about the Doles' ties
to David Owen, who served as a
financial adviser to the trust.
Owen stepped down as Dole's
campaign finance chief last week,
and Dole said Sunday he consid-
ered Owen's departure perma-
nent.
Bush had sparked the skirmish
by distributing 14 years' worth of
tax returns earlier this month and
saying all candidates should do
likewise.
Hart, meanwhile, visited his
tiny Kansas hometown of Ottawa
for the first time since rejoining
the race last month.
But Saturday's stopover was a
far less emotional event than a
tearful Hart homecoming in the
first phase of his campaign, before
he dropped out over revelations
about his relationship with Miami
model Donna Rice.

Mage: The Hero Discovered,
Volumes One & Two, by Matt
Wagner: The Donning Company,
Starblaze Graphics.
Joseph Campbell, in his classic
work, "The Hero With A Thou-
sand Faces provides a schematic
of sorts of the archetypal cross
cultural hero: an individual going
about his routine receives a sud-
den calling from an engimatic
herald; soon afterward, the hero is
separated from his homeland,
descends into the underworld,
then returns as an exalted leader
of his people.
Although Matt Wagner's
"Mage" triology is far from com-
plete (the two Starblaze books
reprint only two-thirds of the first
volume) it is interesting to gauge
the scries by Campbell's arche-
type: Wagner's hero, Kevin
Matchstick, is strolling down a
city street, minding his business,
when he suddenly encounters
Mirth, the World Mage.
Kevin becomes a key focal
point in the secret battle against
the Umbra Sprite and his Grack-
leflints who seek the blood of the
changeling but lame Fisher King
to throw the balance of the
struggle towards the shadows
and chaos for an unknown length
of time
Subsequently, Kevin is sepa-
rated from his destroyed apart-
ment and thereafter enters the
Styx Casino, the heart of the
Umbra Sprite's considerable
darkness. At the conclusion of the
second volume, Kevin's chances
for exaltation and return look
extremely slim
but, again, this is very obvi-
ously archetypal stuff. Wagner's
main source is Arthurian ro-

"Ever since I arrived in this
dreamland of the incredibly obvi-
ous, I've seen nothing but cliches.
Of course Goldie's your niece, it
couldn't be any other way
And that quote, from the first
chapter of "Hairballs the Fish
Police graphic novel (and inci-
dentally issue number one) is how
Inspector Gill gets involved in the
schemes of S.Q.U.I.D. Of course,
the letters were all capitalized in
the comic, but you get the picture.
"The Fish Police" by Steve
Moncuse, listed as "Creatist" in
credits, is expected to run for
out 20 issues - following in the
laxi-series footsteps of Richard
nd Wendy Pini's successful
'Elfquest" comic.
Moncuse, aside from being a
talented Demolition Drinking
player, is a master storyteller. In
the present comic world, apoco-
lyptic themes and ragged render-
ing are hot now. Moncuse has
broken this trend with his clean,
animated style ("I've got four fin-
gers! Cartoon characters have
four fingers Gill complains) and
sarcastic theatrics.
How good a plotter he is is hard
to tell at this point. The series is
broken into separate stories like
"Hairballs" and "S.H.A.R.K.
Bait The storyline is convoluted
and hard to second guess. The
only hard information we have
about Gill is that one day he woke
up and realized he was a fish.
It is implied that Gill was once
human, as evidenced by his vague
memories of stars and cats. But it
may that he is imagining that
stuff. He may have always been a
catfish.
Nevertheless, he is coping.
When he starts noticing female
fish, he realizes, "It's amazing
how flexible male hormones can
be
The battle between S.Q.U.I.D.
and S.H.A.R.K. (still don't know
what the hell those acronyms
stand for) is apparently what
drew Gill into Fish City. Pawns
from other dimensions are in-
volved in the struggle for power,
and Gill may be one of those trans-
posed pawns.
Lot of questions. Lot of cliches
too. Supporting fish include the
beautiful but deadly Goldfish, the
droll butler Blophish, Hook's pets
Line and Sinker. Lots of cliches.
But handled in a completely
sarcastic manner. During the
scene where Gill Finds out
Goldfish's relationship with the
mysterious Dr. Calamari, an
unobtrusive waiter attempts to
serve them. "Sir, I hate to inter-
rupt the flow of melodrama, but
would you like to order now?"
All the characters are treated
with this kind of respect, even if
they appear only for a few panels.
Lord Tetra's pet Tadpole, dis-
plays his jealousy of Sinker's one
word vocabulary (Bah.), thinking
to himself that other fish are only
pretending to understand Sinker.
Hilarious stuff. Visual and
background jokes abound, add-
ing subtle touches of humor remi-
niscent of early issues of Phil
Foglio's "Myth Adventures
One in particular, Gill's visit to
A.T. Landis's Guns N Liquor
Store, stands out.
Moncuse totally disregards any
kind of physical laws. Beer flows
normally into a glass underwater.
Line, the hermaphroditic eel,
almost dehydrates in an under-
water desert. And cigars and ciga-
rettes light easily.
Gill somehow knows this is
weird but deals. When the Hair-
balls drug (Mammalus Becoma-
nol is the scientific name) is re-
vealed to him, he again senses
some weird mess is going on, but
he is unable to discern what is
happening.
Running gags are paced
throughout the series. Gill's
battles with his chief's stable of
temporary secretaries, and the
homophobia the supporting char-
acters exhibit is tastelessly funny.
"Fish Police" is at issue number
11 right now. The book's erratic,
bimonthly schedule make it
harder to read than a lot of other
comics. You know The Big Guy
and Lois haven't done anvthing
unusual in the labt month or so.
With Gill, a two month gap might
find him hours or miles away
from the end of last months clitt-
hangcr.
The main appeal of this comic is
its comicness. After absorbing
all the ramifications oi this
month's "Teenage Swamp Mu-
tants with Real, Socially Relavent
Problems the light seriousness
and hopeless complexity oi the
Police is what comics used to be -
sheer escapism.

The "Uplift Mofo Party Plan"is
the latest and most energetic
album by L.As super-funk
rockers the Red Hot Chili Pep-
pers.
Hillel Slovak does a good job on
guitar. He has his own style and
doesn't rely on playing the same
chords over and over.
Jack Irons is the drummer be-
hind the Chili Peppers. Jack is one
funky dude who can rock hard.
The drums on this album will
keep your feet dancing and your
head banging.
The bassist for the Chili Peppers
simply goes by the name Flea. The
bass lines range from a groovin'
laid back type to a fast poping and
playing style that says this mans
body is full of funk.
Anthony Kiedis is the lead
singer who, on an interview on
"120 Minutes "on MTV said his
philosophy of life is "You ain't

beatin must have been the
world's most hyper-active child.
Anthony has a unique style of
singing that must be heard to
appreciate.
This album, released on EMI
America, is filled with hard
rockin' funk. The songs on the
album deal with a wide variety ol
topics.
"Backwoods" is a kind of a trib-
ute song to Chuck Berry, Bo Did-
dley, and Little Richard. The lyr-
ics that refer to Bo Diddley must
be hard to sing: "Mr. Uplift Mofo

When I talk about rap misic I
usually get two criticisms: 1) that
rapping does not take talent and
2) it's just not rock-n-roll. Well,
when you talk about LL Cool J's
"I'm Need Love" I can see that
point. That song is sappy.
But, if I were to say heavy metal
is not rock-n-roll for the same
reasons and used Bon Jovi's

example, would I be wrong? So,

By STEVE SOMMERS
Staff Writer
What makes great rock-n-roll is
feeling. After all, why spend so
much time and effort to play
music if you don't feel it? Money?
Well, that's what being sold-out is
all about. This is why I hate cover
bands. They don't have imagina-
tion, they don't have feeling and
in my opinion, they are just not
rock-n-roll.
So, the more feeling music has
the more real, the more authentic,
the more rock-n-roll it is. If you
mix this rock-n-roll feeling with
talent, innovation, imagination
and raw energy it equals a fabu-
lous band and great records. This
combination adds up to the Pres-
sure Boys and their new record

Dave Alvin used to be in the
Blasters. He also played with X for
a while, but he didn't record with
them. He never played with Lone
Justice as far as I know, but hey.
The guy has enough credentials.
He has a new album out. If s a
solo Lp, but there are a lot of his
friends playing on it too. The
album is called Romeo's Es-
cape That's also the title of one of
the songs actually on the album.
He re-records a couple of old
Blasters tunes like "Border Ra-
dio" and "Long White Cadillac
He also does the song X made real
popular this summer, "Fourth of
July
To me, if s interesting that he let
them do it before his own album
came out. But then, the way X has
been going lately, it was probably
a mercy gift. Anyway, Alvin's
version is less poppy. I miss
Exene's vocals, but now I don't
have to embarass myself by buy-
ing "See How We Are
Dave hits some high peaks
when he croons those slow songs.
"Brother on the Line" and "Every

have the lyric detail "Fourth of

tertaining for their generaliza-
tion.

optimistic way. Dave uses more
harmonicas on his album though.
And it's more believable com-
ing from somebody who doesn't
have videos in heavy rotation on
MTV. Not that Mellencamp is any
less sincere, but video as a whole
destroys your crediblity.
Dave's "Brother on the Line" is
about strikes and scabs. NFL
players should have had the
chance to hear this a couple of
months ago. It's a sad tune but not
a buckling under song. The
speaker holds on to his integrity,
even though someone is walking
in on his job.
"New Tattoo "What are your
Ma and Pa gonna do?Everyone
wants a woman like youEspe-
cially now with that new tattoo
What else needs to be said about a
song like this?
As a whole, "Romeo's Escape"
works best when Alvin is concen-
trating on the kick-ass rockabilly
songs. The slow songs are pretty,
but situated as they are in the
dead center of the album, they
tend to bog it down some.
Move them to the end, and you
would have one waffle stompin
Saturday night fagbustine ibum
of tunes. So make a tape of the rest
of the songs and play it while
cruising in your 4x4. Save the
slow stuff for your woman.
That's how Romeo does it.
apart from so many others? As I
said before, feeling. The way I
think they feel and the way they
make me feel. When I first listened
to Krandlebanum Monumentus,
it was like the first time I listened
to an XTC record. They have seri-
ous concerns that they express
with the zanyiness that is their
signature. "Trombonehead" is a
song that addresses the socializa-
tion of children. Here are a few
lines.
"Let's saturate their hungry
minds
Show them quickly all the
proper lies
When they reach out for the
loving touch
Another thing that hits me
about this record is the tightness.
The Pressure Boys are one tight
band. This is not an easy task as six
people are in the band. They cer-
tainly don't make things easy on
themselves either. "Krandle-
banum Monumentus" has as
many rhythm and tempo changes
as any record by any band.
From the jumping vocals, the
slap bass, the soaring and some-
times delicately placed horns, to
the innovative guitar leads and
drum rythms comes a very com-
plete album. When The Connells
are making records you should
buy for your mother and The Bad
Checks are making records you
should hide from your mother,
The Pressure Boys have made a
record you should buy for your-
self. I give Krandlebanum Monu-
mentus an A. Excellent work.
I'm here to talk about a real rap-
per.
In 1987, while The Beastie Boys
were getting arrested for their
hydraulic penis and Run-DMC
joined the anti-crack movement
one rapper stood head and shoul-
ders above the rest. His name is
Schoollv D and his D.J. name is
Cold Money. And as Schoolly
would say "You've never seen a
nigger like this before
"Saturday NightThe Record"
is the quintessential party record.
It has kick-started all of my par-
ties. Throw on "Dis Groove is
Bad" and you start moving. No
questions asked. The beat is big,
strong and loud. It makes you
dance.
The cool thing about Schoolly is
he doesn't follow the typical rap-
pers' line. Schoolly just tells like it
is. If you go to Philadelphia don't
think about raising hell on
Parkside Avenue and getting
away with it. That's Schoolly's
territory and he's "guarding it
like it was Fort Knox And I be-
lieve him. That's the thing about
Schooly D, he's authentic.
When the Beastie Boys say I
better beware because they say, "I
got a .45 automatic on my person
And I got my hands in my pock-
ets and my finger's on the trig-
ger I want to say shut-up punk.
I just have that feeling they're full
of that ka-ka stuff. But, when
Schoolly says, "Little white kid
called me a 'nigger' and if I had a
gun then I'd pull that trigger I
say, "yes sir
1 don't want you to think
Schoolly is just hung-up on being
tough. He's concerned about so-
cial issues as well. Let's take AIDS
for example. From the title track,
Schoolly re-enacts a scenario from
one of "those wild Saturday
nights
"I said, 'Hey baby, it's you on
the bill
and tonight I want to be your
lover,
just one thing, I forgot to buy a
rubber
I must warn you. Schoolly D is
not for everbody. Certainly, he is
not for the easily offended or
weak-hearted. But the best things
in life you have to develop a taste
for. To coin a phrase, you don't go
to Mexico until you drink the wa-
ter.

CH APEL HILL, N.C(AP)-The
headline from the Morning Ore-
gortian flashes across the com-
puter screen in time with a few
bars of ragtime music.
A student from the University
of North Carolina Chapel Hill is
hard at work waging a campaign
to place a woman's suffrage
amendment on the Oregon ballot.
1 le has overcome fire, the theft of
his petition signatures and a
dwindling campaign budget.
it's really nothing more than a
computer exercise. But tor the
moment, UNC-CH professor
ohn F. Semonche has taken his
student to the ear 1912.
About 90 minutes later, the
campaign is over. This time
around, the woman's suffrage
amendment has reached the Ore
gon ballot.
The lesson isn't restricted to
computer butts. It's a required
class assignment for all students -
mostly freshmen and sopho-
mores - in Scmonche's two-
semester U.S. history course.
Developed by Semonche and
funded by IBM, the computer
program is one example of an
intriguing new outlet for educa-
tors - the development of "course-
ware
Unlike most educational soft-
ware - which acts as a tutor by
reviewing facts - courseware re-
quires students to make decisions
and answer analytical questions
that relate directly to the ideas
being taught in a course, Semon-
che said.
He has more than 20 yearsexpe-
rience teaching the traditional
lecture history course, and he
looks the part with his pipe and
tweed jacket. But after watching
students work with his course-
ware project, he is convinced that
computer simulations can chal-
lenge students and draw them
into a subject in a way that reading
and lectures can't.
"Students have a notorious way
of putting a distance between
themselves and a subject" he said.
"The vast majority have to be
captured. The computer Simula
tions are the best way I've found
of doing that
William H. Graves, a UNC-CH
math professor, wrote the grant
proposal for IBM ir. 1983, when he
was an associate dean in charge of
the university's general educa-
tion requirements.
His intention, he said, was to
guarantee that computers and
resources were available for sub-
ject areas that hadn't explored the
computer's potential beyond us-
ing it as a word processor.
As a result, many of the 40 proj-
ects supported by the $2.5 million
in IBM money and equipment
were developed by humanities
professors such as Semonche,
Graves said.
"An interesting social phe-
nomenon was that people in
humanities really stepped for-
ward on this Graves said.
"There was really keen interest
because poeple in humanities had
been locked out of computing
In Semonche's case, the com-
puter programs were a natural
extension of a process he had used
for almost 20 years in the class-
room. Since the late 1960s, he had
been asking his classes to put
themselves in the place of people
who had to make historic deci-
sions. The approach helps stu-
dents understand the complexity
of historical events and enlivens
lectures, he said.
Since the IBM project began,
Semonche has developed 11 com-
puter simulations. Three have
already been incorporated into
his teachings: "1865 - "Should the
Southern States Be Readmitted to
the Union?"
"June-December 1894 - What
Action Should the President Take
Concerning the Pullman Strike of
1894 and its Aftermath?" and
"1912-Can You Get Your State To
Approve a Woman's Suffrage
amendment?"
After the students complete the
program, they answer a series of
analytical questions based on
their decisions. The student's
performance is recorded on a
printout and graded, Semonche
said.
The computer programs don't
replace basic course work but are
used in lieu of supplementary
reading.
"The intention is to make it a
very important part of the
course Semonche said.
He recently found a publishing
company that will sell his soft-
ware programs and hopes to put
others on the market. But one
criticism of courseware is that
much of it will never find a mar-
ket.
UNC-CH Associate Provost
John H. Harrison IV said course-
ware was used mainly by the
person who develops it. He thinks
the overall IBM project will pro-
duce little software that other
professors will find useful.
"A lot of time and effort is in-
vested in it, but it's far-reaching
impact may not be realized
Harrison said.
Instead, Harrison views the
project as a step toward making
software easier to create. When
that happens, more and more
professors will be willing to invest
the time it takes to create their
own personalized programs.
Semonche acknowledges that
some people - including students
who have dropped his course
because he used the program -
criticize the invasion of comput-
ers into courses that formerly
used lectures and readings.
But Graves said most of the
skepticism had disappeared. The
IBM project has sparked course-
ware development in various
subjects, including Latin, English,
calculus and psychology.
"I'd say we're in the midst of an
evolution in our own understand-
ing of how we can use the com-
puter with students he said.
"Interest is on the rise
One indication of growing in-
terest involves the work of
Educom in Princeton, N.J, a con-
sortium of 500 colleges and uni-
versities. Educom has developed
a "Software Initiative" project
that studies the increased use of
software. The group also holds an
annual awards program to en
courage the development of new
courseware programs, Vice Presi-
dent Candice K. Willut said.
Ms. Willut, Semonche and
Graves agree that courseware will
become more popular when col-
leges and universities provide
more computer terminals for stu-
dents.
"Using computers to teach is
not a new concept, but the micro-
computer certainly makes it more
accessible to more people Ms.
Willut said.

Pirates fall to American in CAA heartbreaker
By TIM CHANDLER
Sports Fditur
So dose, but yet so far.
The old cliche could not fit any
better than after ECU'S 75-69
overtime loss to American Mon-
day night in Minges Coliseum
before a boisterous crowd of
2,820.
With the game tied 65-65 and
one second remaining on the
clock, the Pirates' hopes of win-
ning another key CAA game rest
solely in the hands of junior Gus
Hill.
Hill, who was fouled by the
Eagle's Mike Sampson was at the
free throw line with a chance to
score the game-winning points on
a one-and-one opportunity-
Hill, who was 13 of 16 at the
charity stripe for the night, how-
ever, fired the free throw long
sending the game into overtime.
In the overtime period, free
throws once again wouldn't fall
for the Pirates as the Eagles held
on for the win.
"Our guys played real hard and
really got after them (American)
ECU head coach Mike Steele said
following the loss. "But they just
didn't play smart and that is the
bottom line
The Pirates, for most of the
game, allowed the fast-paced
Eagles to dictate the pace of play
in the game, something Steele
wanted to keep away from. Steele
said that one of the keys he
pointed out to his players before
the game was to have patience on
offense.
"It (our patience on offense)
was as bad as I've seen it this
year Steele said. "They were
trying to score on one pass and we
don't have the team to do that
The Pirates fell behind by 10,25-
15, in the first half at the 9:31 mark
before thev mounted a rallv.
A pair of free throws each by
Hill and freshman Stanley Love
followed by a score from walk-on
Kenny Murphy pulled the Pirates
within four, 25-21 with 7:05 to
play in the opening half.
ECU managed to keep the
Eagles lead to four at the intermis-
sion when Terhern Harvey scored
with six seconds showing on the
first half clock making the score
34-30.
In the second half, the Pirates
opened by not going behind by
more than seven before rallying at
the 16:30 mark. Hill canned a pair
of free throws and then connected
on a 3-pointer to pull ECU to
within one, 44-43 with 15:50 re-
maining.
After falling back behind by six,
a nine-point surge by the Pirates
boosted them back into the lead
for the first time since leading 5-4.
Scores from Love, Murphy and
Jeff Kelly sandwiched around an-
other 3-pointer by Hill put the
Pirates in front 54-51 with 9:55 to
play.
The Eagles charged right back
and reeled off six points of their
own to grasp a 57-54 lead at the
eight minute mark.
"We were up by three and then
had two turnovers in a row that
really hurt us Steele explained.
From there, the Pirates man-
aged to get back in front by as
many as three, 61-58, before the
Eagles got back even at the end of
regulation setting up Hill's
chance for the victory.
"I told him (Hill) that missing
the free throw was not that impor-
tant Steele said. "The thing that
I'm concerned with about Gus is
the mental mistakes he made
during the game. He had about
four charging fouls
The free throw woes of the Pi-
rates continued in the overtime as
Kelly and Reed Lose each missed
the front end of one-and-one
opportunities and Love also mis-
sed a shot from the charity stripe.
With the loss, the Pirates fall to
2-2 in the CAA and 6-9 overall,
while the Eagles improve to 6-9
overall and 2-2 in conference ac-
tion.
Hill paced the Pirates in scoring
for the game with a game-high 25
points, while Lose scored 13.
American was led by Daryl
Holmes with 18. Sampson
chipped in 14, while Dale Spears
came off the bench to score 11.
"This is the first game that we
have lost that we should have
won Steele said. "We just need
to regroup now and get ready for
our next game
The Pirates next action will be
Saturday, Jan. 23 on the road
against the league-leading
Richmond Spiders.

Nothing in the world can take the
place of persistence. Talent will not;
nothing is more common than unsuc-
cessful men of talent. Genius will not;
the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone
are omnipotent. Theslogan 'press on'
has solved and always will solve the
problems of the human race.
? Calvin Coolidge
The above quotation, inscribed
in a cross-stitch portrait, is one of
the first things that greets a vistor
entering East Carolina basketball
coach Mike Steele's office.
The words expressed by the late
president Calvin Coolidge are so
related to the 1987-88 basketball
team at ECU that the words al-
most jump out at a visitor as those
spoken expressly for the team.

Swimmers gain wins
By CAROLYN JUSTICE
Sports Writer
ECU's swim team came away
victorious in Saturday's dual
meet with conference foe UNC-
Wilmington at the Minges Coli-
seum Natatorium.
The men won eight of 13 events
for a total score of 106 over
Wilmington's 100, while the
women won 10 of 13 events for a
total of 108 over Wilmington's 75.
The men's and women's 400M
medley relay teams placed first
with times of 3:41.51 nad 4:11.51
respectively.
Ted Christcnscn, of the men's
relay team also took first place in
the 200 individual medley with a
time of 1:59.89. Teammates Ray
Kennedy and Patrick Brcnnen
were right behind as the Pirates
swept the event.
Leslie Wilson won the women's
200 IM finishing 2:15.97. Team-
mate Ryan Philyaw took third.
Freshman Sonya Hemingway
was one of two Pirate Swimmers
to take home two individual wins.
Hemmingway, a member of the
winning 400M medley relay, won
the 50M and 100M freestyle, 25.55
and 56.24. ECU also took second

early last Spring he was ready for
the long, hard struggle of trying to
rebuild the Pirate team, which in
the past 10 seasons, had com-
pleted only two winning cam-
paigns.
For Steele, who had risen to the
top of the Division III coaching
world at DePauw with an overall
record of 124-40, the task seemed
hard enough at the beginning
when Steele arrived; only nine
returning scholarship athletes off
of a team that posted a 12-16 rec-
ord.
The prognosis for this season
grew even worse by the start of
practice on Oct. 15. The nine re-
turning scholarship players had
been reduced to three. Four play-
ers, juniors John Williams and
Manuel Jones along with sopho-
more Tracy King had been dis-
missed by Steele for disciplinary
reasons and a fourth player,
Howard Brown had left the team.
Later, Blue Edwards, consid-
ered by many to be the Pirates'
only hope for success this season,
was removed from the team for a
violation of the ECU Student
Code. Edwards was arrested
along with Williams, King and
Brown on Aug. 26 and charged in
connection with a rash of break-
ins at Scott Dormitory.
That left Steele with only two
returning players from last year's
team, Reed Lose and Jeff Kelly.
Between the two of them, only
about four points per game and
two rebounds per contest were
salvaged. Joining Kelly and Lose
for the '8788 season would be
five freshmen, two walk-ons, a
junior college transfer and a
player who just two years ago had
undergone complete recon-
structive knee surgery. And to
make matters worse for Steele,
none of the players were taller
than 6-6.
By this time, it was time for the
annual preseason prognostica-
tions to hit the newsstands. The
Pirates were picked in all to finish
a dead last in the Colonial Athletic
Association race and one publica-
tion even went so far as to say the
Pirates would not win a single
game against a Division I oppo-
nent.
Wrong. The Pirates, behind the
motivating work of Steele, have
already posted three wins over
Division I teams. And as far as the
CAA race goes, the Pirates have
turned a few heads there also. By
winning for the first time ever at
James Madison last week and
then defeating Navy for only the
second time in 13 tries last Satur-
day, the Pirates find themselves in
the heat of the CAA race with a 2-
2 mark. In fact, thus far this season
ECU has accumulated six wins,
while dropping nine games. That
total for wins already exceeds
what any prognosticator guessed
for the Pirates at the outset of the
season.
The Pirates were just shy of
moving to 3-1 in the CAA Mon-
day before they fell in overtime to
American, 75-69. The loss was like
a knive stab in Steele's back be-
cause it was a game that the Pi-
rates should have and could have
won.
How has Steele achieved what
he has thus far this season many
ask.
That can be answered by look-
ing elsewhere on the coach's of-
fice wall. Tucked behind Steele's
neat and organized desk in-
scribed in a plaque, are the words:
Nothing great is ever accomplished
without enthusiasm.
That, according to Steele, is the
main thing he tries to sink into his
player's mind. Without enthusi-
asm in every game, Steele is aware
that the Pirates will have diffi-
culty winning.
"When you look at the person-
nel we had coming into this sea-
son, you have to admit that it was
not very promising Stcele says.
"I was afraid (at the beginning of
the season) to set a goal for wins. I
broke the season down into sev-
eral different areas. What I
wanted to do was improve as the
season went on and to play solid
by conference tournament time
The improving play displayed
by Steele's team has, no doubt,
won over the hearts of Pirates fans
even with a losing record thus far.
How?
Because of the effort that each
one of the Pirates puts out in every
game. Steele promised at the out-
set of the season that his team
would be one that would try its
hardest every game and would be
exciting to watch. Thus far, the
Pirates have lived up to their
promise.
"I think the people here have
been just great Steele said. "I
think they appreciate the efforts
the guys are putting out. If they
see them (the players) out there
giving all they've got then they
are usuallv satisfied
J
The road ahead for the Pirates
will continue to have obstructions
in it, but with a mentor such as
Steele leading the way, the Pirates
should find the gold at the end of
the rainbow someday.
"We're gonna have some diffi-
cult games Steele confesses.
"But we just have to use those
games as a learning experience
and not get down on ourselves
And, by doing that, one day
Steele and ihe Pirates may just
prove that Coolidge was right in
saying nothing in the world can
take the place of persistence.
