By the year 2010, the United
States will have more than half a
million fewer people trained in
the fields of science, math and
technology than will be required
to fill jobs in those areas, accord-
ing to a presidential report.
Two years ago the Federal
Legislature mandated, bv law, a
study to determine the projected
situation in the L .S. with regard to
science, math and technology. In
September of '88 a presidential

by the year 2000 only 15 percent
will be white males ? 85 percent
of the people entering the nation's

to Dr. Charles Bland, chairman of
the ECU biology department.
"This is a critical factor be-
cause these are groups (women,
minorities and handicapped)

the U.S. students scored 13th in

Speech program to help correct stuttering

ByROBPEARSALL
Suit VVnlcr
Dr. Rich Shine, a professor
with the ECU Department of
Speech Language and Auditory
Pathology, introduced theCAFET
(Computer Assisted Fluency Es-
tablishment Training) for stutter-
ing at the National Stuttering
Project Meeting Wednesday eve-
ning.
"Stuttering is a handicap that
frustrates the stutter bv garbling
his efforts at communication
Shine said. "The National Stutter-
ing Project tNSP) is a self-help
group for individuals that stut-
ter
"The CAFET is the first com-
puterized fluency training proce-
dure for treating stuttering Shine
said, adding "by monitoring dia-
phragm breathing and focusing
on maintaining natural-sounding
speech patterns
"IT produces faster results
than traditional methods. Shine
said. "The CAFET extends short
term results into long term suc-
cess
"Stuttering is not a learned
behavior, neurosis, psychosis,
emotional problem or nervous
condition Shine said.
"Stuttering is a coordination
disorder Shine said. "Whenever
you speak it requires the use of
2(K1 muscles
"Individuals that stutter have
difficulty coordinating and inte-
grating their breathing, turning
their voice box on and off and
articulating speech sounds. In
order to speak the right hemi-
sphere controls rhythm and mel-
ody while the left hemisphere
controls the language. To speak
fluently, the left and right hemi-
sphere have to integrate he said.
"In the history of the world
there has never been a stutterer
who was not totally fluent when
singing Shine said. "When a
person sings they modify their
speaking pattern
"Mel Tilhs, Marilyn Monroe
and Bruce Willis are famous
people that have have a stuttering
problem Shine said.
Bill Kellam, who organized
the NSP for Washington, NC, said
"They tried to keep me out of the
Army for stuttering Armv offi

When Kelly returned from
Vietnam in April of 19t8, he tried
to locate his daughter with no luck.
Then in 1981, with the help oi a
friend who had access to social
security information, he found her
living with her mother and step-
father in Oregon.
"I called her up at the high
school Kelly said. "Ilearned that
her mother had told her that I was
killed in Vietnam, and that's why
she didn't have a daddy
Kelly and his daughter were
reunited and she moved to North
Carolina. She lived with her fa-
ther until the time she went to
college.
In 1972 Kelly remarried, and
his second wife began to feel the
effects of the war. "There s no one
on thisearth that would have stood
bv me and gone through what
she's gone through he said.
"I've always had problems
sleeping he said. "1 had flash-
backs and 1 could hear the rockets
still coming in; I could still hear
the kids screaming; I could see the
guvs burning to death and pieces
oi bodies on the ground
C i. one oi his flashbacks
in his sleep, Kelly broke his wife's
jaw. "When 1 woke up, she was
laving beside me crying, and she
was all black and blue and she
was bleeding. I've never felt so
bad in mv life
After three suicide attempts,
Kelly is finally trying put his life
back together. Three years ago he
joined a rap group" at the Veter-
ans Center in Greenville. "It's
helped me learn to control the
anger and the hurt Kelly said.
A Look at
College
Prejudice
(CPS)?"Racism, sexism, vio-
lence, heightened conflicts be-
tween faculty and administrators,
poor living conditions in the dor-
mitories" are among the subjects
they expect students will cover,
Atwell said at the press confer-
ence announcing the study.
Students will probably grouse
about money, too, predicted Fred
Azcarate, president of the U.S.
Student Association, which rep-
resents student body presidents
in Washington, when he heard ot
the effort.
"We hear comments like, 1
can't afford (college), ' ' It's not
worth it anymore 'How am 1
going to pay them back,
Azcarate said.
"Some students he added,
"are facing the choice of making
their loan payment or buying food.
The only way to get education is
to get loaned up
Robert Hochstein of the Car-
negie Foundation guessed there'll
be other topics brought up, too:
fraternity excesses, fear of crime,
class section shortages and too
many courses taught by grad as-
sistants, among others.
"Colleges have gone from in
loco parentis' (meaning that col-
leges looked after students liter-
ally 'in place of the parent') to
'loco nothing Hochstein ob-
served in speculating why college
life might have come unhinged .
"Thereisachangingstudentbody;
alcohol, drugs
The study results will be pre-
sented to the ACE's januarv, 1990,
meeting.
After that, however, Hoch-
stein only hoped its results will
remain "visible
"It will represent a step to-
ward consciousness raising on
issues like racism and date rape,
as well as creating an awareness
of good practices on some cam-
puses. We hope it will stimulate
reform and improvement
Veteran Don Lundegard has
strong feelings regarding the
government's actions during the
Vietnam War. "The government
sent kids to fight but didn't back
them up he said.
Lundegard said the troops
were sent in and told not to make
any aggressive actions. The Viet
Cong could do anything and eve-
rything they wanted, and we had
our hands tied he said.
Like Kelly, Lundegard re-
members specific incidents from
his service in Vietnam. "We en-
countered 'sappiers' which are
suicide squads he said. 'They
would jump into our bunkers and
detonate themselves According
to Lundegard. the sappiers sot up
compounds identical to those ot
the United States troops in order
to practice their attacks.
"When I was in Quang Nam
Province, the North Vietnamese
ran into our camp Lundegard
recalled. 1 le said he knew he had
to kill them or be killed. "It was
really hard to fire the first round,
but I knew if 1 didn't they would
get behind me to the bunkers
Lundegard said he had never
killed any one before that nic,ht.
The following day his unit looked
at the dead bodies and realized
the sappiers had been teenaged
boys. "These 15 and lb year old
bovs were so drugged that they
didn't even feel the bullets. They
just kept running toward us even
after they had been shot
Upon returning to the United
States after his tour in Vietnam,
Lundegard's unit had to change
their destination at the last minute
to avoid predicted confrontations
with Vietnam protesters. "The
night before we returned home, a
MATS (Military Air Transport
System) flew a unit to Trevis Air
Force Base Lundegard said.
"Protesters threw human waste at
them and called them baby-kill-
ers
The actions of the war pro-
testers shocked Lundegard. "1
think the protesters had a right to
voice their opinions but not a right
to burn the American flag he
said. "The flag is a symbol of the

cent support from thegovemment.
"Thegovernment fought with halt

cians lost the war in Vietnam, not

Hundreds of thousands ot
Vietnam veterans are still strug-
gling to overcome the effects of
the war, according to many oi
those who visited The Moving
Wall on the Greenville Town
Commons this week. The Ameri-
can public is finally beginning to
sympathize with their plight, and
these men and women are getting
the help and understanding they
have needed for so long, Lunde-
gard said.
The Moving Wall, which has
been on display on the Greenville
Town Commons since April 13,
has helped some of the veterans
confront their feelings about the
war.
"We've got to realize that the
war was just a segment in our
lives and not live for the past
Lundegard said. "So many vets
came back and tried to hold it
within. The wall allows Vietnam
vets to let out their emotions
"We can't bring the dead back
but what we can do is make sure,
God forbid, it never happens
again Lundegard said.

Schools lack services for disabled

(CPS)?A Florida Atlantic
University freshman who has
cerebral palsy will be forced to
move out of his dorm this summer
if he can't find a roommate to help
him bathe, feed and clothe him-
self.
Fred Nisen says he has placed
ads "all over campus" with no
luck. His present roommate,
Douglas "Dutch" Mann, is gradu-
ating this spring. Nisen's compan-
ion would get free room and board,
but apparently that hasn't been
enough to lure qualified students.
"It's not a lot of work, but it's
enough to keep most students
away said Dee Davis, director of
FAU's Disabled Student Services.
"There are people willing to
do the job, but they can't get ac-
cepted into school Davis said.
Several FAU women nursing stu-
dents also are interested, but
housing regulations forbid "co-
habitation
But if no one else volunteers,
Davis said, she will push the
administration for an exception to
the cohabitation rule. "Let's face
it. It would be a hell of a prac-
ticum
If Nisen can't find a room-
mate , he will have to move back in
with hisparents, which says Davis,
is the "worst possibility" because
of the tremendous amount of time
and money that would be re-
quired.
Disabled students at other
campuses also are encountering
obstacles.
There's been a "shocking ero-
sion" in school services nation-
wide to handicapped and disad-
vantaged students, Mary Hat-
wood ?Futrell of the National
Education Association (NE A) said
at a Washington, D.C press con-
ference April 4.
Futrell called for $10billion in
new federal spending for school
services for the handicapped, bi-
lingual education and for Pell
Grants for college students.
At North Carolina State Uni-
versity, two student groups plan
to blockade a pedestrian tunnel
during exam week the end of April
to protest the lack of a handi-
capped-accessible tunnel.
Protest organizers have given
the university until April 20 to
announce a construction date that
would provide at least one wheel-
chair accessible runnel by the 1990-
91 school year.

Schools claim computer first
Clarkson U. offers software vending machines
(CPS)?Clarkson University
in New York say s it's the first cam-
pus in the country to offer stu-
dents "software vending ma-
chines
New this semester, the dis-
pensing machines actually are
microcomputers that can access
libraries of PC softword stored in
Clarkson's central computing
system. All software is written by
the university community, is dis-
tributed for sharing or is site-li-
censed to Clarkson.
Students can get to the cam-
pus phone directory, a course
registration program and software
needed for various classes on the
vending machines.
Clarkson ? along with Ste-
vens Institute of Technology in
New Jersey ? six years ago was
one of the first schools in the coun-
try to equip students with per-
sonal computers.
"I would say Clarkson stu-
dents are pretty well ahead of any
university our size, or even the
much bigger ones, in the way of
computers boasted junior Pete
Wargo.
Those are fighting words on
some campuses.
In late March, for example,
Northwest Missouri State Univer-
sity launched a publicity effort
claiming it is the first "electronic
campus" in the country. It has a
computer in every dorm room and
faculty office. The computers are
networked.
Arguments about which
school was the first true "com-
puter campus" may seem purely
academic, but colleges believe the
claims attract top-notch students.
Clarkson's computer system
"was definitely a big selling point
Wargo admitted.
Other computer "firsts" are
claimed by Drexel University in
Pennsylvania, which dubs itself
the first to require that all students
have personal access to a micro-
computer. The University of
Richmond in Virginia last year
hailed its application process ?
which allows students to apply on
an IBM computer disk, eliminat-
ing the application fee ? as the
first of its kind.
On March 29, Stanford gave
$400,000 to scientist Douglas
Engclbart, the first to invent the
computer mouse, for new re-
search.
"Anything that sets them
apart from their competition, sure,
they'll use said Laurie Robinson
of the American Association of
Collegiate Registrars and Admis-
sions Officers in Washington, D.C.

ways looking for things to say that
make them unique and look

Nuclear fusion
A chen.lstry professor rocked
the world's scientific community
recently when he held a press con-
ference claiming to have experimen-
tally conducted a nuclear-fusion
reaction in a glass flask.
After three decades oi experi-
ments, costing billions of dollars,
physicists have been unable to pro-
duce what Dr. B.Stanley Pons, chair-
man of the chemistry department at
the University of Utah, claims to
have produced in a freshman level
laboratory setting. "Now it ap-
pears he said, "that chemists have
come to the rescue
However, in any freshman sci-
ence laboratory class setting, stu-
dents are expected to have a thor-
ough understanding of all proce-
dures to be used and to compile the
obtained data into an easily under-
standable scientific journal format
before they are tested on the mate-
rial. Were Pons to have been tested
by his peers on his highly publi-
cized, if unorthodox, press confer-
ence according to freshman stan-
dards, he would have done poorly.
First, Pons was unable to re-
spond satisfactorily to in-depth
questions concerning his experi-
ment procedures, measurements
and results. For example, only now
are autopsies being conducted on
the palladium electrodes used for
the presence ot certain "daughter
products" which would be present
if this were actually a nuclear fusion
reaction.
One such daughter product, and
a distinguishing characteristic of a
deuterium fusion reaction s he-
lium, for which Pons totally ne-
glected to test. They also found a low
number of neutrons emitted, as
compared to what is expected.
Perhaps this is not a fusion reac-
tion after all; perhaps its simply a
good fuel cell. But if such were the
case, the same experiment should
work in plain water (H20), as well as
deuterium (D20) ? also known as
heavy water. Yet, Pons also ne-
glected to conduct this test.
Fusion, the power source of the
sun, is the energy-releasing process
by which atoms from light elements
combine to form heavier elements.
Physicists have not been able to
duplicate this process economically
because more energy is required to
cause nuclear fusion than is released
by the reaction.
However, if Pons' claims were
true, then hydrogen-rich seawater
would become man's energy source
in the future ? a virtually unlimited
one. One liter of deuterium could
supply enough energy to burn a
lightbulb for approximately one
year. He maintains that he receives
four times the amount of energy
from the reaction that goes into it.
Even if Pons' claims can be sub-
stantiated, his methods of releasing
his test results were questionable
and did little to endear him with his
colleagues. It is customary to release
ones' findings to a small group sci-
entists in the same field so that they
can duplicate the experiment and
verify ones' results. Pons failed to do
this.
It is standard practice among
scientists to release their publica-
tions in a creditable, well-respected
journal so that scientific information
is openly interchanged, and readily
available to the science community
so that the experiment is easily re-
produceable. Pons chose a little
known publication in Great Britain
to publish his papers and a big tele-
vision media splash to set it off ? a
move that can only be perceived as
arrogance.
In short, before a scientist goes
public with experimental informa-
tion, it is mandatory that a compre-
hensive database be obtained on all
the systems involved. And it should
be expected that this database must
be thoroughly checked, repro-
duced, and verified by other scien-
tists. Pons' methods, so far, have
disallowed this.
Given his position at Utah and
his well-respected reputation in the
field of chemistry, Pons is obviously
very intelligent and understands the
impact such a discovery would have
on the public. Obtaining seven- or
eight-figure research grants would
suddenly become easy.
But, after all, Pons is an honor-
able man. Surely he would never
consider unethical behavior simply
to give chemistry ? especially at the
University of Utah ? a boost. Still,
one cannot help wondering.

Rower upset about Starkie article
To the editor:
Here we go again ? The East
Carolinian loves to print articles
concerning racial issues. This paper
seems to promote racism of all kinds,
even issues not involving ECU stu-
dents.
The Tuesday article which ap-
peared on the front page of the The
East Carolinian entitled "Rower says
club practiced racism" was, in my
opinion, not news and it only served
as a plea for a non-Olympic rowing
hopeful Preston Starkie to obtain
sponsorship ? if Mr. Starkie wanf s
to get sponsorship he shouldn't be
looking for it from a university pub-
lication (especially if he is not an ECU
student). It is my opinion that this
article was a waste of space and coin-
cidentally it appeared on the same
page that the SG A had announced its
approval for the ECU Rowing Club.
The article about Mr. Starkie not only
took glory from our achievement but
in addition added some controversy.
Tom Allan, mentioned in the
article as one person accused by Mr.
Starkie, is my coach and he does not
put up with people who don't abide
by the rules ? whether they're black
or white! Coach Allan gave Mr.
Starkie an opportunity to row. If
there was any racial tension ? he
wouldn't even have helped Mr.
Starkie in the first place. It seems to
me when someone had been given
numerous chances to cxcell, he or she i
would follow the set rules or guide-
lines. Well, it is obvious Mr. Starkie
did not follow the rules and in my
opinion he should have been re-
leased from the club. If I were to
disobey structured rules the Pamlico
Rowing Club would not have hesi-
tated in expelling me also, and I'm
white. So if the paper and Preston
Starkie want to turn Mr. Markie's
inability to follow rules into a racial
issue, they should think again.
Remember how this article ended ?
"If the members decide to uphold
their decision, Starkie will be forced
to either relocate or find sponsors to
buy him a boat, fund his tavel and his
entry fees In my opinion this article
was a story a fable in fact, therefore
I feel that fables don't belong on the
front page of The East Carolinian.
Preston Starkie is arguing about a
racial issue so he can find someone
who will support his cause to pro-
mote sponsorship.

Offering the fruits of months of introspection
25fT
By SCOTT MAXWELL
Editorial Column!
Exposition:
Normally, this column would be
filled week after week with ha-
rangues against the intolerant and
the stupid. Instead, it's been dealing
mainly with "safe" items ? the
Exxon spill, the Tower nomination,
and so on.
Every time I sit down to write a
column about something more seri-
ous, less transient, it never gets done.
I've been asking myself why.
It seems I've been indulging in
self-censorship. Strange as it may
seem, fear of criticism from the very
people I knew I would insult has kept
me silent.
So, rather than vilify Oliver
North, which was my original plan,
I've decided to get a bit more per-
sonal.
Nouement:
This column is about racism, and
it is written by a young white male. I
tell you this so that anyone who
wants to do so can go ahead and turn
the page.
Anyone still reading? Good.
Then we'll begin.
For the past few months, I've
been engaged in some soul-search-
ing. Is it true, as I've been told over
and over lately, that by virtue of the
fact that I am white and male and that
I live in the American South, I'm rac-
ist?
There was no question in my
mind that I feel no prejudice toward
most minorities ? American Indi-
ans, Hispanics and such ? but I've
heard so much about white-black
racism recently that I didn't feel that
I could be so sure about it. And so I set
myself to the task of considering just
my attitudes toward blacks.
I may be racist. Maybe. But I
know I'm not consciously so. If any-
thing, I go out of my way to ensure
that I don't treat any person differ-
ently because he's black. This, I find,
is self-defeating: in an attempt to
treat everyone the same, I end up
treating some people differently. I
know without a doubt now, though,
that I don't treat blacks worse.
However, because I've been
trying consciously to avoid being
racist, I'm getting rather annoyed
with those who keep insisting that 1
am. I've noticed that there's a bit of
reverse racism going on here: it is
stated that because I am white, I am
racist. This is as offensive to me, and
probably as unjustified, as saying
that because Jane Smith is black, it
follows that jane Smith is poor (or
lazy, or shiftless, or whatever).
Further, it is implied that any
denial that I am racist is evidence that
I am. This presumption of guilt is as
ridiculous today as it was in early
Salem. Then, you were a witch if you
said you were one, and you were a
witch if you said you weren't.
Don't blacks have a right to say
that they feel oppressed? Yes, they
do, and it's one of few rights I'd de-
fend to the death. Don't they have a
right to be free from prejudice? Yes,
they do, and it's another of the few
rights I'd defend to the death. Don't
they have a right ? even an obliga-
tion ? to speak out when they see a
wrong they think they should right?
Yes, and that's yet another right I'd
defend et cetera.
So whaf s my problem?
Climax:
I have mixed feelings about those
blacks who go to what I think are un-
reasonable extremes in pursuit of
their admirable goal of equality. I
refer to those who propose that in
matters of racism there should be a
presumption of guilt, that freedom of
speech should be restricted where it
offends sensibilities, that overreac-
tion is the only rational reaction to
racism in short, those who propose
to limit freedoms in a way that would
ultimately hurt more than help.
I fervently hope that these people
do not represent the views of blacks
in general. If they are not, this has not
been very much in evidence. Because
they have an obligation to stop ra-
cism, the more responsible blacks
should be speaking out against the
excesses of the few who are, if
unintentionally, destroying that
which they ostensibly support.
Denouement:
I feel less comfortable around
blacks now. I find myself avoiding
them lest I be accused of being racist
in my interactions with them. Far
from making me less racist, the cur-
rent ambience ot racial paranoia I is
perhaps made me more so.
The more distant a relationship
is, the more readily racial prejudi e
influences it. Friendships begin w
distance and grow closer; since I a
no longer comfortable forming even
the more distant types of relation-
ships with blacks, I'll probably i
form closer relationships with them
either.
I feel that I should do my pan to
stop racism. But it does not follow
that 1 must support anyone who
claims to be working against it. Don I
I, in fact, have a right even an
obligation ? to speak out it 1 think
their methods are morally wrong?
I would have to be an idiot to
suggest that racism does not exist
and I like to think I'm not an idiot
And I can't fault anyone for wanting
to eliminate it ? quite the contran, I
praise them. But extremism in the
defense of liberty is a vice.
Should the more fanatical anu-
racism groups have their wav, racial
equality will be established at the
price of freedom of expression it it
is established at all. More likely, the
dogged insistence that racial equality
must be assured at any cost, coupled
with the growing lnsensitn itv of the
extremists towards any views that
differ from their own, will succeed
only in further entrenching racist
attitudes.
Conclusion:
I'm still searching my soul, and 1
haven't yet come to any but the most
tentative conclusions. Valeria Las-
siter, a wise woman who is my
bodhisattva in these matters, assures
me that racism is predicated on fear,
insecurity and a general lack of
understanding, and that it is impor-
tant to understand why a person is a
racist ? as she put it, "What brings
them to that point? 1 agree, but with
the added condition that even if a
person's attitudes are understand-
able, they are not necessarily justi-
fied.
I surmise, in sum, that what I've
said strikes a chord with others in my
position, and 1 hope that it clarifies
for blacks what most whites are feel-
ing (or what I hope they're feeling, at
any rate).
Here's hoping you're both
shaken and stirred.

Dinner was an interesting sight, Michelle
screamed "big chicken" and ran track all

plate, so she ran to Ellen to borrow a date
(two of them Ellen!) Megan's date was
clueless of her award, little did he know
there could be another man aboard.
Shortly after dinner, we move the scene to
the hall, where Shen and Mike had one
heck of a brawl! But the juicv part was
down the other end, cuz Scott West came
around the bend (shame on you!). So this
leads to the big ending, hev Sheri ?

for me to try and hurt you because of my
inability to cope. You can never think less
of me, than I do of myself right now. I'm
sorry Not only have I lost you completely,
but your friends as well. If I had it to do
over again Well, you know the rest. I
only hope that someday you'll under-
stand what I was going through and for-
give me Unitl then take care. I Love You,

Sororities rush to fall rush
By Kelly Boyle
There is a change in the way
ihat sorority rush will be held in the
upcoming fall semester, according to
panheUenk president Barbara Lamb.
Instead of conducting rush
activities during the first week of the
new semester, women interested in
pledging a sorority as well as
sorority members will have to return
to school a week early for rush.
Rush will be held Aug. 19-23, with
classes starting Aug. 23.
According to Miss Lamb, rush
takes approximately four to five
hours a day for rushees and seven to
ten hours a day for the sorority
women. The svstem used in the
past caused a lot of conflicts with
night classes, class assignments and
jobs. "Rush before school will
allow both rushees and Greek
women to have more time to prepare
and enjoy rush Miss Lamb said.
This system will help new
students at East Carolina who are
interested in going through sorority
rush to better adjust because they
will not have to worry about at-
tending to juggle classes their first
week in college and a busy week of
rush.
Another positive aspect of this
new system is that it will weed out
the girls who are not seriously
interested in pledging a sorority.
This is the first year that East
Carolina will be using this system
so the turn-out may be low. Miss
Lamb seems to think that this may
be beneficial to the Greek system
right now because at the rate many
sororities are growing, (a few are
numbering close to or over 100
members now), most sororities can
afford one small rush.
Many larger universities have
this pre-school rush and it has been
very successful. It was inevitable
that East Carolina would have to
move to this system sooner or later
because of the growth in its Greek
system and according to Miss Lamb,
this is a good time to do it.
There has been a mixed reaction
among sorority women about this
new system. Many members feel
that it cuts into their summer
vacation too much because they not
only have to come back a week early
for the rush activities, they must
also be here a week before the
activities begin to participate in in-
dividual sorority rush workshops.
Kathy Melnick, a member of
Alpha Xi Delta sorority, is not
happy with this new procedure. She
said, "In my opinion, it is not fair
to require us to come back to school
two weeks early from our summer
vacation to participate in rush when
I think that it worked just fine when
wc did it the first week of school
Elizabeth Moore, a member of
Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority dis-
agrees. She said: "I think that
moving rush to before school starts
is a good idea. It will take a lot of
pressure off of us and the rushees. I
remember going through rush and
being loo excited and too tired to
want to even think about school as-
signments when I got done and I got
really behind in all of my classes the
first week of school
Many potential rushees attended
a Convocation ceremony on April 3
in Wright Auditorium to familiarize
themselves a little more with
sorority life at East Carolina
University. All of the sororities,
which will be holding rush in the
fall, contributed slides of many
special events and everyday fun for
the enjoyment of all.
Whether this change is a good
idea or not is yet to be seen, but
come August when the girls start
pouring back into town and ex-
citement is in the air, many girls
may realize that it docs not really
make a difference as long as their
rush is a successful one.

Eating at ECU will take a
different twist during the 1989
sessions of summer school.
All students desiring on-campus
housing will participate in the
combined room and board
program. "There will be no
exceptions for regular students
except in some situations con-
cerning handicapped students
said Carolyn Fulghum, assis-
tant vice chancellor and direc-
tor of housing.
The University Dining
Program will operate in
Mendenhall Student Center
through a declining balance cash
card with a $100 minimum to
be paid per term. This required
fee will be paid in addition to
the regular tuition and room
rent.
The Declining Balance Plan
is a cash card providing each
patron complete control of his
account as to where, when and
how much is spent on meal
purchases. The price of each
meal eaten is deducted from the
balance in the account by means
of a card reader. After each
transaction, the balance remain-
ing in the account is displayed
on the card reader for customer
information. Meal cards for
summer school students must
be obtained from the Vali-Dine
office on the first floor of
Mendenhall.
The $100 required deposit
is a minimum amount and is
not designed to totally meet the
dining needs of a student for
five and one-half weeks of
school. All additional deposits
must be made to the Vali-Dine
office in Mendenhall in $25 in-
crements. The $100 required
deposit is nonrefundable and
cannot be carried over to the
second term; however, any
additional deposits can be carried
over to be fully utilized during
summer school.
Dining services at ECU are
managed by Canteen Company.
Current plans call for the new
400 seat dining hall and snack
bar being added to Mendenhall
to be operational in time for
summer school. This will en-
able dining services to operate
both the "all you can eat" din-
ing hall and the a la carte snack
bar during the summer terms.
According to Dean Ful-
ghum, over the last two or three
summers, it has been a losing
proposition to offer dining ser-
vices. "If students pay the
money, they will use the facil-
ity. I feel, however, the stu-
dents will be quite pleased with
the new services Dean
Fulghum said.
The primary reason for the
installation of this dining pro-
gram is to enable the Food Ser-
vices a chance to correct any
problems such as traffic flow or
machinery malfunctions before
the fall semester.
Students are to remember
that this particular program will
only be in effect during the
summer school sessions.
"Eventually, a similar system
may be in effect, but the pro-
cess of incorporating this type
of meal plan will be filtered in
over a period of years Dean
Fulghum said.
Any questions concerning
the summer school dining pro-
gram can be directed to Frank
Salamon, director of dining
services or to Janice Ellis, ad-
ministrative and Vali-Dine
coordinator at 757-6382.
Interest in teaching
on the rise; but still
short of demand
By Clejetter Pickett
Freshman interest in teaching
careers has increased by more than
two-thirds since 1982. In the fall of
1987, 8.1 percent of students
entering college planned to pursue
careers as elementary or secondary
school teachers, up from 7.3 percent
in 1986 and the low of 4.7
percent in 1982. This is according
to the 22nd annual survey of
entering freshmen conducted jointly
by UCLA's Higher Education
Research Institute and the American
Council of Education.
Although the interest in
teaching careers is increasing it still
falls short of the projected demand
and is far below the all-time high
recorded in 1968 when 23.5 percent
of the entering freshmen (and 37.5
percent of freshmen women)
expressed an interest in the teaching
profession.
Although the interest in
education careers is encouraging the
1987 data suggest potential
problems with future supplies of
certain technology and health career
professions. The interest in nursing
careers fell by more than half in four
years.
Engineering and technology
continue to show sharp declines:
freshman interest in engineering fell
by more than a fourth since 1982,
while preference for computing
careers declined by more than two-
thirds during the same periods.
In 1987, nearly equal
proportions of men and women hope
to become physicians (3.6 percent
for men and 3.3 percent for women.)
This is a big change from past
years. In 1977, 3.9 percent of the
freshman men and 2.5 percent of the
freshman women hoped to become
physicians, compared to 6.4 percent
of the men and only 1.3 percent of
the women in 1967.
There are more women now
interested in engineering and
computing than 10 years ago. The
recent declines in tresnman interested
in these careers occurs among both
sexes.
As one may have guessed,
business continues to attract more
students. The most preferred among
college freshmen, business, reached
another all-time high in fall 1987.
The rising popularity of busineess
among freshmen is in part due to the
growing number of women who
plan to pursue business careers.
New
places
for
new
faces
By Mike Geraci
East Carolina University is
growing. Student enrollment in-
creases each year and construction on
campus is booming.
As students return to classes
next fall there will be two new
facilities finished and ready for use:
the Sports Medicine and Physical
Education building, next to Minges
Coliseum, and an addition to the
Mendenhall Student Center.
Directors of the construction
say the projects will definitely be
open and ready for use by the begin-
ning of the Fall '89 semester.
The three-level addition to the
Mendenhall Student Union will add
needed open space, offices and a new
cafeteria.
The basement of the addition
will have a party room and a larger
multi-purpose room to be used for
such things as blood drives. The
Minority Student Organization of-
fices along with the offices for
black fraternities and sororities will
be housed in the basement also.
The university's radio station,
WZMB, will move its broadcasting
equipment, control room and offices
to the basement and will have the
media board's photo lab as a neigh-
bor. Room has also been made for
the food service to store their sup-
plies.
The main floor will feature a
400 seal cafeteria and snack bar ca-
pable of serving 1,000 people at
lunch and dinner. Offices for the
managers will also be located on
this floor.
The third floor will have 11 of-
fices to be used by the student gov-
ernment and other groups. A grate
room twice the size of the multi-
purpose room will be there accom-
panied by another multi-purpose
room.
If all stays on schedule the
building will be furnished in April
and in business by fall.
Fall at East Carolina means
football, and when the 1989 season
kicks-off the Pirates will have a new
home, The Sports Medicine and
Physical Education Building.
This 82,095 square foot addition
to the athletic department will house
almost every aspect of sports needed
for a competitive program.
The Pirate Football team will
have its lockers moved in along
with the coaches and their offices.
Men and women basketball teams
also will move their offices into the
building.
The Sports Information De-
partment plans to follow suit and
transfer its offices into the spa-
cious building along with the ad-
ministrative offices of the athletic
department.
A new human performance lab-
oratory will be stationed in the
complex. The new lab will offer fit-
ness, blood, oxygen and stress test-
ing facilities to student athletes,
students and the community.
The Sports Medicine Depart-
ment will move into the complex
and establish what directors call one
of the finest programs in the coun-
try.
Doctor and dental offices,
rehabilitation and therapeutic
facilities and hydro-therapy
equipment will be housed there.
Sports Medicine students will
attend classes in a 208 seat audito-
rium . To complete the facility, a
new strength center will be added
saving athletes the trip down Evans
Street.
Directors say the facility is
scheduled to open July 1.

Hundreds of young people are
scheduled to invade the East
Carolina University campus this
summer.
There are approximately 23
camps being held at ECU, ranging
from athletics to academics. ECU
does not sponsor all of these. Some
are established by separate organiza-
tions, but ECU is involved in at
least an administrative position.
Almost all of the campers will re-
side on College Hill and West
Campus.
June 25-July 8, approximately
125 high school students
exceptional in science and mathe-
matics will participate in Summer
Ventures. Students attend classes,
travel on weekend trips, and partici-
pate in recreational activities. This
is the only camp that allows stu-
dents to do research at the ECU
Medical School.
June 18-June 27, close to 150
young people ranging from grades
8 through 12 will attend the
Legislators' School for Youth
Development. These students
attends classes on communication
skills, leadership training and
enviromental affairs. They also
travel to listen to the North Carolina
legislators, and they take a weekend
camping trip.
250 students on July 16-July 28
in grades 7 through 10 will attend
the ECU Science Camp. These
academically gifted young people are
offered classes in computers,
photography, astronomy, chemistry,
ecology and geology. The
instructional curriculum is based on
expressed interests of each student.
Recreation is offered as well as an
evening lecture series.
Other camps include the North
Carolina Suzuki Workshop on June
9-14. Choral and keyboard camps
are being offered June 18-24.
Softball and basketball camps for
males and females will be June 18-
July 20. A cheerleading camp will
take place June 27-June 30.
Six orientation sessions for
incoming freshmen will begin June
11. These three-day sessions will
consist of placement testing, college
life discussions and some recre-
ational time. For the second year
now, parents will be able to attend
subsequent sessions at the same
time as their children. They will at-
tend discussions on financial aid,
residence life, intramural services
and the counseling center. The par-
ents and students are kept separated
throughout the three days.
The camps offered at ECU
during the summer allow students
the chance to spend a few weeks
living in a college atmosphere.
So ECU summer school
students beware. There will be lots
of smaller students on campus this
summer living in the dorms, eating
cafeteria food, and having a great
time.

A radio, sunglasses and suntan oil are among the essential items needed for those who are
set on getting that serious summer tan. But many sun worshippers are now thinking twice
before spending hours in the sun. (Photo by Patty Anderson)
UV rays harmful
Tanning is summer sickness
Bv Lvnn Jovner
Summer is in the air and many
of you will be heading to the beach,
your own backyard, or a tanning bed
to work on a healthy-looking tan.
As you have probably heard before,
the glorious bronzed look may not
be so "healthy" after all.
Each year about 300,000 new
cases of skin cancer are reported.
More than 90 percent of the cases
are believed to be caused by overex-
posure to ultraviolet rays which
come from the sun or tanning beds.
Doctors had formerly believed that
only older people who had spent
years in the sun could develop skin
cancer, but recently an increasing
number of people in their twenties
have suffered from the same disease.
Another risk from this overexposure
is premature aging of the skin.
Sunlight does have some bene-
ficial effects. A moderate amount ol
sun helps clear up mild cases of
acne; lowers blood pressure; pro-
motes high energy and endurance,
utilizes the body's Vitamin D and
maintains biological rhythms and
the secretion of hormones.
If you plan to be in the outside
sunlight, here arc some hints to
protect your skin. Choose an SPF
(Sun Protection Factor) sunscreen
that is right for you. Even if you
alreads have a tan, you still need to
protect your skin. If you are fair-
skinned and burn easily use an SPF
of 8-15; if you tan gradually and
burn some use an SPF of 4-8; if
you tan easily and usually never
burn use an SPF of 2-4. Be sure to
reapply the lotion often, especially
after swimming or perspiring.
Your risk of sunburn is greater
when affected by these factors: if
you are exposed to sunlight between
the hours of 11 a.m. and 2 p.m if
you are taking certain drugs such as
antibiotics, oral contraceptives, sul-

fonamides, antipsychotics, diuretics
or some antihistamincs; and if you
are near water or sand. Be sure to
protect your eyes from cataracts by
wearing effective sunglasses and to
protect your lips from sunburn with
an SPF emolient of 15 or higher.
If you are planning to use a
tanning bed, it is important to know
that this method is not necessarily
any safer than the sun. Mary
Flesha-Adams of Student Health
Service said: "Some people think
tanning beds are better, but the
complications are the same.
Problems that result are due to
overexposure in the sun or tanning
beds
The difference between tanning
by the sun and tanning by beds in-
volves the amount and types of ul-
traviolet radiation found in each.
Two types of ultraviolet rays found
in sunlight are UVA and UVB.
UVA radiation is 1,000 times less
effective in causing burns than UVB
radiation. Most sunlamps give off
mostly either UVA or UVB rays.
Some sunlamps give off as much as
10 times more UVA rays than the
sun.
In order to protect users against
many of the hazards of indoor tan-
ning, the FDA sets certain regula-
tions on the tanning bed industry.
The FDA requires that manufactur-
ers follow standards for technical
performance, labeling (including in-
structions and warnings to the user)
and testing to see if the products
comply with the set requirements.
Some guidelines to follow
when using a tanning bed are re-
move contact lenses; wear the pro-
vided eye goggles; cover skin areas
not normally exposed to sunlight for
half the tune during the first tanning
session; very gradually increa c j our
lime spent in the tanning bed; and
be aware that the same medicaii
that cause skin sensitivity in sun
light will also cause sensitivity in
the tanning bed.
Using these suggestions you
can work your way to a safer tan
But if you do happen to gel a nast)
burn, some ways to ease the pain are
take a cool bath mixed uith three
teaspoons of baking soda; take as

ning and free hollies of SPF 4 sun

Greenville has a lot going for it
in the summer, but just not enough
to fill those long, dog days of
summer; so we escape to the cool,
dark movie theater or to our handy
VCR's.
This coming summer seems to
be the summer for sequels at the
theaters.
Trekkies should be thrilled at
the release of Star Trek V. Let's
hope movie lovers and Trekkies will
not be disappointed in another
chapter of this never-ending space
saga.
Action-adventure fans will
receive their share of films next
summer also. The movie studios
are releasing "Robocop II" and
"Indiana Jones and the Last
Crusade the second sequel to
"Raiders of the Lost Ark
People looking for a good laugh
might find it in the long awaited
sequel to "Ghostbusters
"Ghostbusters H" retains most of the
original cast including Bill Murray,
Dan Aykroyd and Sigourney
Weaver.
Movie-goers not happy with the
offering of sequels might iry ihe
"Batman" movie. Recent previews
for the movie have proved extremely
popular among audiences. The cast
includes Michael Keaton as Batman
and Jack Nicholson as the evil
Joker.
Those who cannot afford the
soaring prices of theater tickets
might turn to video stores. There is
an excellent selection of movies for
summer viewing.
Shelves are well stocked with
recent action releases. One of ihe
choices is "The Presidio" with Sean
Connery and Mark Harmon. Even
though it did not do well at theaters,
it is popular with renters. It
involves a brutal murder at a
military compound which the two
men are paired together to solve.
Another action movie popular
with video renters is "Shoot to
Kill Sidney Poitier plays an FBI
agent sent to the Pacific Northwest
to find an escaped murderer. He
enlists the aid of an expert tracker
played by Tom Berengcr.
Comedy lovers will enjoy a
great variety this summer. It you
haven't seen "Big this summer is
the time to rent it.
A slightly older movie to rent
is "The Natural" with Robert
Redford, Glen Close and Kim
Basinger. The cinematography in
this baseball movie is spectacular.
Redford plays an older player
returning to the game after a
shooting incident had ended his
career earlier in his life.
Romantics will find ihe rece
video release "Two Mcxm Junct
to be a very erotic adult drama.
In ihe movie, a very steamy
romance develops between a carnival
worker and an uppercrust Southern
debutante. The loner, played by
well-built Richard Tyson and the
beautiful debutante played by
Sherilyn Fenn come together in
some very explosive scenes.
The plot is unoriginal, but just
looking ai Tyson and Fenn and all
the beautiful scenery make this a
video to rent on one of those sultry
nights in Greenville.
Enjoy a movie this summer.
Greenville summer
getaways cheap,
easy and nearby
By Lynn Joyner
It's summer again and time to
pack a suitcase and head out for va-
cationing fun. But most college
students on a budget cannot afford
that costly cruise to Mexico or a
European holiday. Never fear be-
cause plenty of nearby, affordable
summer escapes are available.
The first place that may come
to mind for a summer vacation is
the beach, and North Carolina has
plenty of golden sand and ocean
waves to offer. The closest beach to
Greenville is Atlantic Beach, which
is less than two hours away. After
sunning here for a few hours, you
may want to visit Fort Macon, the
Civil War Fort surveyed by Robert
E. Lee in the early 1830s. Within
the Fort is a museum commemorat-
ing Civil War battles. Before leav-
ing Atlantic Beach be sure to stop at
nearby Beaufort, the third oldest
Employment Security Commission
Assistance available for
difficult job search task
By Beth Bass
Trying to find a job is often a
troublesome task. Pounding the
pavements to find openings, filling
oui applications and being inter-
viewed are just a few of the more
time-consuming processes of seek-
ing employment. Furthermore,
there always seems to be more
prospective job seekers than avail-
able openings.
Employment often seems to be
even harder to find during the sum-
mer months. Young people are
anxious to earn extra money and
wiih school's hassles behind them,
they are the primary candidates for
summer jobs.
The Employment Security
Commission offers a helpful service
to those persons seeking summer
employment opportunities. To Like
full advantage of this service,
prospective workers should first
register with the ESC. This regis-
tration involves making an ap-
pointment with the agency during
which the seeking worker provides
his age, interests, education and any
other pertinent information.
According to Placement Supervisor
Bill Pate, the appointments enable
the ESC to match the worker with
an available job as soon as possible.
The Odds System is another
way the employment agency finds
jobs for interested persons. This
process allows the ESC to match
worker's qualifications with job
openings as they become available.
The commission is also cur-
rently working with ECU lo form a
job placement system with the Co-
operative Education Program. In
this system, ESC representatives
would be in the Co-Op oiiic on
ECU's campus two days a week in
order for students to register with
them. Representatives would be
on campus on a year-round basis,
including ihe summer months.
town in North Carolina (1709).
Some of the town's 18th century
homes are open for tours. The
Beaufort waterfront harbor is home
to beautiful yachts and some fine
restaurants and shops.
Moving further down the coast
are several more beaches - Emerald
Isle, Surf City, Topsail Beach,
Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach
and Myrtle Beach. A special attrac-
tion in Wilmington, near
Wrightsville Beach, is the USS
North Carolina Battleship

Lost Colony, which is America's
oldest outdoor drama.
Farther north in our neighbor-
ing state of Virginia is Virginia
Beach and the charming waterfront
cities of Norfolk and Hampton.
Another popular Virginia tourist at-
traction is Colonial Williamsburg, a
town that makes you feel like you
are walking through 18th century
America. Its cobblestone streets are
lined with rows of colorful flowers
and berry bushes. The shopkeepers
are dressed in colonial attire.
Also in Williamsburg is the
theme park Busch Gardens, "The Old
Country where you can imagine
you are in Europe for a day. The
park has more than 30 rides and a
variety of live entertainment all
suited to the particular "country"
you are visiting. Another popular
fun park is Kings Dominion, located
in Virginia's capitol, Richmond.
This park resembles Busch Gardens
but without the European flavor.
If you are looking for a change
of pace from summer heat and hu-
midity, you may want to head west
to the breathtaking mountains of
North Carolina. Here, you will find
thousands of acres of parkland filled
with the colors of summer. Nestled
in this part of the state is the city of
Asheville, home to the incredible
Biltmore Estate. Built for George
Vanderbilt, this house took 1000
workers five years to build. The
house was formally opened in 1895
and was recognized as the mosi
spectacular mansion in America.
The estate consists of a 250-room
chateau, gardens and a winery.
Other fun places to visit while
in the mountains are the Cherokee
Indian Reservation in Cherokee,
Tweetsie Railroad (a wild west
theme park) in Blowing Rock and
Ghost Town (an old western saloon
town park) in Maggie Valley.
So hop in your car and have an
exciting, fun-filled summer.

One good choice is the Spa, lo-
cated at Southpark Shopping Center.
It has approximately 1,000 members
with 50 percent men and 50 percent
women. The average age of mem-
bers ranges from 20 to 40. The Spa
is open Mondays through Thursdays
from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m Fridays from
7 a.m. to 7 p.m Saturdays from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 1

ery, lockers and a bath area. A nu-
tritionist and masseuse are also
available by appointment.

consultants are availaole by ap-
pointment only.
The exercise classes are offered
an average of 60 limes each week
and include high-intensity aerobics,
low-impact aerobics, toning and
children's rhythm and movement.

After a rough day of summer
hool classes and laying out, what
do students at East Carolina do to
unwind? They go downtown!
There are a variety of bars in
Jowntown Greenville to suit almost
everyone's taste.
Here is an urxiate on the down-
?own scene for those of you who
have been watching television every
weekend this semester and for those
i f you who are looking for a change
of scene and don't know where to
go.
To begin the night of partying,
many students like to start off early,
somewhere a little mellow and laid
hack Two favorite early hangouts
are Chico's and Fizz. Both of these
bars feature live music on selected
Acekends and tables where you can
sit down, relax and enjoy a drink
with friends before a hard night of
partying begins.
If the mellow atmosphere does
not suit you and it is dancing that
vou are interested in, the Elbo and
Rafters are two good choices. Both
of these clubs allow 18-year-olds to
enter, but at the Elbo you mtfst be a
member or a guest. Both clubs have
.i large dance floor and plenty of
room to mix and mingle while
scoping out the opposite sex and
listening to your favorite tunes.
Live bands are what some stu-
ients prefer and Greenville can sat-
isfy that preference too. The Attic,
The New Del! and Susie's Treehouse
are some of the bars you can go to
to hear bands. The Attic is ranked
as one of the top rock and roll clubs
in the Southeast and for good rea-
son. Every Thursday through
Sunday, they host a wide variety of
bands ranging from The Chairmen
of the Board , The Usuals,
Nantucket and Rolling Stones and
Led Zeppilin tribute bands. In addi-
tion, the Attic has the Comedy Zone
every Wednesday night.
Other popular hang-outs are
Grog's, with their Sunday night
SI.00 imported beer, O'Rockefellers
and their SI.10, 30 ounce draft beer
and then there is the old stand-bv,
Pantana Bob's.
The new kid on the block in
downtown Greenville is Sharkey's.
It is located where the Tequila bar
used to be, (for those of you who
have been here that long), right next
to The Sport's Pad, (which, by the
way, is the place to go to drink
long-neck beers and play cheap
pool). Sharkey's offers a selection
of 12 imported beers and wine
coolers to satisfy anyone's taste.
Sharkey's is a private club for
members and their guests, over 21
years of age.

Festivals are almost a way of
life in North Carolina. However,
they come out in full force during
the spring and summer months.
Across the state, a large
variety of festivals take place, such
as Fayetteville's Dogwood Festival.
One of the more recognized mid-
April festivals is the Azalea Festival
in Wilmington which includes a
street fair.
The fair features more than 100
arts and crafts booths, food booths
and commercial booths. In addition,
an Azalea queen is crowned. Enter-
tainment for all ages is provided in
the form of bands and dance groups.
Darryl Hall and John Oates were the
feature performers at the 1989 festi-
val.
Grifton's Shad Festival is also a
crowd drawing festival held in mid-
April. Activities include the Spring
Shad Run, fishing contests, a fish
fry and the popular "fishy tales"
contest. This storytelling competi-
tion gives contestants a chance to
tell their biggest lie, tallest tale, or
fishiest tale.
Late April brings the Kite Fes-
tival in Topsail Beach, the Sclma
Ham and Yam Festival and another
favorite, Washington's Tulip Festi-
val. The five day Tulip Festival in-
cludes a parade, museum tours, a
Teen Tulip Dance, a Tulip Ball.
Miss Tulip Pageant, a statewide
high school band competition and
concludes with a finale featuring lo-
cal talent.
The Annual Pow-Wow pre-
sented by the Haliwa-Saponi Tribe
is held in Hollister. This late April
festival features the crowning of a
tribal princess, Indian arts and crafts,
native American foods and dance and
drum competitions.
The month of May does not
slow down. Early May brings Hen-
derson's Beach Music Festival
which is followed by another Beach
Music Festival at Emerald Isle
around mid-month. The White Lake
Water Festival and Kinston's Day in
the Park take place in mid-May.
The month ends with the Old Time
Fiddler's and Bluegrass Festival in
Union Grove.
Early June brings Canton's
Strawberry Festival and Wil-dear's
Festival of Fun held in Nags Head
near the month's end.
July bursts out like a firecracker
with the Annual Roasting of the
Hog in Beech Mountain. Another
beach music festival is held at Car-
olina Beach, along with Nags
Head's own Land Hermit Crab Race
Murfreesboro's Watermelon
Festival in late July.
Local festivals are also in
abundance. Greenville is the loca-
tion for one of this area's most well-
known fcstivals-The 17th Annual
Greenville Fourth of July Festival
will be presented once again by the
Greenville Jaycees.
The primary goal of the
Greenville project, according to Fred
Keith, the festival chairman, is to
incorporate a family atmosphere
around a day of celebration. The
Jaycees solicit manpower from other
civic organizations. The Greenville
Ronald McDonald House, for exam-
ple, is responsible for games for the
children, which will help raise
money for their organization.
This year's activities will in-
clude a 5K road race, arts and crafts
show, carnival rides and pony rides.
Area fire departments will hold the
annual Fireman's Competition.
Live afternoon concerts, featuring
bands such as the Chairman of the
Board, are also scheduled.
However, the highlight of
the day will feature a choreographed
fireworks show at the Town
Commons. Keith said, "I can
promise it will be one of the best,

Summer Breeze April 1989 Page A
Frisbee golf: it's a toss up
By Tracye Larkin
Some call it "frisbee" golf and
others call it disc golf. It's true the
game is played with a frisbee, but
"frisbee" is the registered trademark
name of the Wham-0 Company. It
is technically called disc golf.
Dr. George Sappenfield, a
leisure Systems Studies professor at
ECU attended Fresno State in the
late 1960's.
In his spare time he worked as a
playground leader at a park.
Sappenfield and co-workers used
their imaginations and created a new
garre. They set up hula-hoops on
poles throughout the park area.
Tee-off places were marked near
each hoop, indicating where players
would stand to throw frisbces. Each
attempt to land the frisbee through
the hoop counted as one stroke.
Each hole had a par measuring the
degree of difficulty.
Sappenfield graduated from
Fresno State with a degree in recre-
ation and landed his first job at
Thousand Oaks park where he started
a disc-golf tournament. Sappenfield
wrote to the owners of the Wham-0
Company and asked for frisbee and
hula-hoop donations for the tourna-
ment. Wham-O supported the new
game and eagerly donated the equip-
ment.
In 1978, the general manager of
Wham-O, Ed Headrick designed
metal buckets to replace the hula-
hoops. The sides of these buckets
were made of flexible chains.
Wham-0 then started marketing

There are approximately 300
disc or frisbee-golf courses across
the country today and arc a rave on
college campuses. On sunny days
ECU's course averages 60 players
throughout the day.
Some community recreation
programs make money from this
sport. They have disc-golf club
houses and pro-shops like the one
located in Lamirada,Calif.
The only equipment needed for
this sport is a "frisbee There are
specially designed discs for the
game. They come in different
weights, with the heavier discs trav-
eling further than the lighter ones.
These discs are usually only used by
the more serious and dedicated disc-
golf player.
The game of disc-golf , com-
bined with a good marketing strat-
egy, has the potential to become a
competitive sport. Sappenfield de-
scribes the game as, " a good

With the hopeful future of disc
"frisbee" golf, don't you think it's
time to introduce yourself to the
sport? The disc golf course on cam-

ECU clubs splash into spring
By Michael Geraci
The inevitable springtime sun
and heat of Greenville has returned
and it's time to get wet!
The East Carolina Intramural
department offers several outdoor,
water-oriented club sports to take
advantage of Greenville's tropic-like
climate.
A hobby to most people, the
ECU Water Skiing Club takes its
skiing seriously. The club was
founded in November and already has
joined the South Atlantic
Conference and scheduled four
tournaments for this semester.
Competitions include three
events: slalom, tricks and jumping.
The 14-member club travels to Ze-
bulon and Bath, to practice at their
facilities, any free moments they
Smith leaves Falcons
have.
Members own their own boats
and skis and receive money from the
school. Club members have a
feeling this support will increase
because of a team member named
Jackie Rollins. Jackie is capable of
setting new SAC slalom and jump
records.
If you are interested in joining
the club contact Tom at 830-0137 or
the Intramural office
Anothei new club to join ECU
is Crew. The sport associated with
the Ivy Leagues has washed into
Greenville.
Tom Allen, of Washington,
N.C started the crew club in
September 1988 with two members
and has expanded it to 10.
Races are called regattas and the
club enters one, four-man boat with
coxswain in each regatta.
The club has several regattas
scheduled for the spring including
The Duke Invitational, at Lake
Michie, and the Augusta Invitational
in Georgia, featuring more than 100
teams.
The Crew Club practices four
days a week on the Tar River in
Washington.
Anyone interested in Crew-
should contact Andy at 757-0305 or
the Intramural department.
If your idea of fun in the water
goes a little faster and has more ob-
stacles then the Kayak Club might
be of interest to you.
The Kayak Club paddles all year
round, including the summer, and has
their own equipment. Most of the 40
members are beginners.
Club President Ray Irvin
stresses they only take people on
rivers they are ready for. Pool prac-
tice sessions are designed to develop
the skills necessary tor running a
river.
The Club meets every other
Monday night in Memorial Pool an!
takes trips every weekend. Irvin says
there are ten people that go on the
trips every week and others join
when possible.
Unlike the other clubs there are
no competitions in Kayaking onl
the personal challenge. The club
runs rivers like the Chattoogo,
where the movie Deliverance was
filmed, and the Nowachukee in
western Carolina.
Club dues are S5 a semester and
those interested should contact Rav

Former ECU linebacker signs
with the Pittsburgh Steelers
By Lisa Pittman
Vincent Smith, a graduating
senior at East Carolina University
and also a defensive linebacker, has
signed a contract to play football for
the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Smith, who had played for the
Atlanta Falcons, had several reasons
for signing with the Steelers.
One reason was the free agency
rule. Under this rule, Smith could
have been picked up by any team in
the National Football League.
According to Smith, he didn't have
any protection from this rule at
Atlanta.
He said he sees the switch as
an opportunity and a chance for
more playing time on the field.
Smith said he's not speculating as to
whether he will be happier, but he
does sec it as another chance to do
something he likes. Smith says
he's going to go with the flow,
calling the switch "another job
However, Smith did say he was
a Pittsburgh fan when he was very
young. He recalled the "Steel
Curtain" defense for which the team
was popular at the time.
Smith said that his mom is
very excited about the change. He
said she knows football is
something he enjoys and she
wants to give him support. He
also said that she watches his
games, evaluates his plays and
questions him about them.
He said the types of teams ECU
played against while he was a team
member, gave him good preparation
for the pros, especially since a lot of
the players on those teams arc now
in the pros. He added that he might
have been overlooked for the draft,
because he played for ECU.
Smith knows that there will be
a big change from Atlanta with
warm weather to Pittsburgh with
colder weather. He bought himself
a new jeep with four wheel drive for
the harsher conditions.
He said since Pittsburgh is one
of the five best cities in the United
States to live in, he is optimistic
about the change in locale, although
he said he did like living in Atlanta.
He said that the impact of all
this hasn't hit him yet, and that he
had not imagined that some day he
would be in the pros. It was, how-
ever, his dream to compete with the
world's best athletes.
Smith said that the athlete with
the biggest impact on his life has
been the Chicago Bulls basketball
star Michael Jordan. Aside from
Jordan, Smith's mother and his 4-
year-old daughter, Jayme have been
his support and inspiration. He said
that even though she is young, she
tries her best to be there for her
daddy.
Smith is a former resident of
Statesville, N.C which is located
near Charlotte. Looking back at his
high school years, he recalled being
an honor roll student and a footbali
star, along with his brother who is
now attending the University of
North Carolina in Chapel Hill.
Superstitions:
sports and rituals
go hand-in-hand
Scholar athletes receive rare recognition
By Lisa Pittman
Six East Carolina University
football players were recipients of
the Carolina Telephone and
Telegraph Athletic scholarship for
die 1988-89 academic school year.
On behalf of an academically
outstanding athlete, the amount of
$3,500 is awarded at each home
game to the university. Charlie
Carr, ECU's associate director of
athletics said, "a gesture like this one
by CT&T and its president Wayne
Peterson, stands out as an illustra-
tion of corporate commitment to
excellence with regard to our pro-
gram The players who received
this scholarship have around an
overall "A" or "B" average.
The players feel that the schol-
arship is a deserved reward for their
efforts. Willie Lewis and Tod
Creech, two of the recipients, said
that receivr j, the award has gained
them posiu.e recognition among
some of ECU's faculty. Another
recipient, Terry Bennett said that he
"was glad to be able to give some-
thing back to his school
Football players usually have
busy days during the season. In
general they go to their classes and
at 2 p.m. they head to the field
house for meetings and practice that
end some time around 6:30 p.m.
Tired and sometimes bruised, they
have dinner and the time thereafter to
study.
The players had different reac-
tions as to whether they had enough
time to study. Most of them wished
they had more. Creech compared
football and classes as having two
jobs.
R.L. Beeman Jr also a recipi-
ent of the award, said that he man-
aged to have enough time to study,
but paying attention in class was
most important,
Beeman and Bennett also said
that because they don't have as much
study time as most students, foot-
ball gives them more motivation to
study and do well. They said this
motivation has helped their grades.
Creech, who has 18 hours this
semester said it was difficult for a
player to have more than 12 to 13
hours, since football takes a lot of
their time.
The players said that the
coaches do show interest in their
grades. The coaches make sure the
players attend class and they keep a
watch on their grades. The players
below a 2.0 grade point average are
required to attend study hall.
Overall, the players believe they
are stereotyped for being trou-
blesome. Usually they are given a
negative outlook in the classroom,
almost always having to prove that
they are intelligent. Lewis said,
"When one of us gets in trouble it
makes headlines, but one of my
teammates has a 4.0 GPA and he is
rarely recognized
Beeman saidThe majority of
college athletes work hard on and off
the field and do better than a lot of
students who don't have as many
extracurricular activities Bennett
added, "People shouldn't categorize
us as dumb jocks; it's hard to excel
in sports and school, but our re-
quired motivation is the key to our
success
Other athletes such as Bill
Maxwell, Walter Wilson and Frank
Compton McCurry have also re-
ceived the CT&T academic scholar-
ships. After putting in what they
consider a tough school year, these
players are looking forward to the
summer. Some of them plan to
take classes, but all of them plan to
continue to work out and enjoy the
"long-awaited summer They will
also wait to see what the new season
and new coaching staff will bring
By Tracye Larkin
It's a tie game in the bottom of
the ninth inning, the bases are
loaded, and there is a 3-2 count on
the batter. The pitcher reaches into
his back pocket to touch his "lucky"
rabbit's foot for good luck. Much
to his dismay, it is not there. He
hasn't played a game without this
good-luck piece since little league.
He feels he is doomed without this
meaningful piece of fun.

traditions, they all mean the same
thing - superstition. Superstitions
are practiced in all athletic competi-
tions ranging from professional
sports to little league.
Webster's dictionary defines su-
perstition as a belief or practice re-
sulting from fear of the unknown.
Athletic competition is filled with
uncertainty; therefore it is natural
that most athletes turn to rituals.
These rituals range from lucky
charms to a certain mental prepara-
tion.
East Carolina University ath-
letes like all others follow these rit-
uals. Kim Corwin, first-baseman
on the softball team said "Our team
stands in a circle with our hands held
high and yells at the top of our
lungs for five or six seconds, then
with a signal the entire team pushes
their hands down with an even
louder yell. The echo heard from
this chant not only gets our team
going but also intimidates the other
team
Donna Weller, another member
of the softball team confesses to not
stepping on the chalk lining the
field. Ms. Weller also makes sure
there are no bats crossed before
stepping in the on-deck circle.
Charlie Libretto, a quarterback
on the football team goes into the
shower, puts a towel over his head
and runs over the different plays in
his mind before each game.
Irish Hamilton, a member of
the women's basketball team lies
on her bed for two hours before each
game listening to music and men-
tally preparing herself. Ms. Hamil-
ton also has a pair of lucky socks
she likes to wear in ever)- game.
Davy Willis, a pitcher on the
baseball team admits to picking out
a pet rock and keeping it in his hat.
The team has a designated spot in
the dugout for each player's glove,
and they always warm up with the
same person.
These traditions may seem
silly, but to athletes, they are im-
perative in order to play well. It is
important to know what supersti-
tions mean to athletes, and just as
important to respect them.

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
APRIL 20,1989
Student life across nation in question
(CPS)?Just as a high-pow-
ered group of national college
leaders announced a project in
New York April 4 to see if it could
measure the "quality of student
life" on campuses nationwide, a
group of students took over a
building at Morris Brbwn College
in Atlanta to complain about the
quality of student life there.
In a tape recording played to
students and police gathered out-
side the building, the protesters at
MorrisBrowncomplained officials
had done nothing to treat their
complaints about bad dorm con-
ditions, course shortages and
"substandard" cafeteria food.
"This in not an irrational
temper tantrum freshman An-
toine Chancellor told the Associ-
ated Press. "We have filled out the
papers. We have gone through
the process. The process has
failed
Several of the country's most
dramatic student protests of re-
cent months ? over political and
racial issues at Howard and Penn
State universities, for example ?
included pleas to otticials to cure
"other" quality of life issues like
dorm overcrowding and inade-
quate campus security.
Student anger had nothing to
do with officials' decision to study
such issues, said Robert Atwell,
president of the American Coun-
cil on Education (ACE), one of the
two erouDS that unveiled the plan
for a nationwide look at the qual-
ity of campus life.
Instead, the idea came from
college presidents who "expressed
concern at what they perceive as a
decline in the quality of campus
life and in the character of rela-
tionships among members of the
college community Atwell said.
To probe it, ACE and The
Carnegie Foundation tor the
Advancement of Teaching.
headed by former U.S. Commis-
sioner of Education and college
scholar Ernest Boyer, said thev
would visit "18 or 20" colleges
during the next year, interview
ing students, administrators and
faculty members about how they
feel about their campus lives.
Rights groups raid research lab
(CPS)?Animal liberationists
"freed" more than 1,000 Univer-
sity of Arizona research animals
in a lab raid April 3, but in the
process may have released some
mice carrying a contagious dis-
ease.
The Animal Liberation Front
claimed responsibility for the raid,
which included two arson fires
that caused an estimated $10,000
worth of damage, in a statement
left with Tucson police soon after
the blaze.
ALF members conducted the
raid, the note said, to save the
animals "from certain torture and
death
Thirty of the mice, however, I
were infected with a "Third World
disease" by veterinary science
Prof. Charles Sterling, who had
been tracking the disease'sbehav-1
Compact
ior.
Sterling said the disease ?
caused by a bacterium called
cryptosporidium?causes severe
diarrhea for two-to-four weeks,
and can be fatal to people with
immune system illnesses.
"1 don't know how (the re-
search mice) can ever be recov-
ered Sterling said, unless ALF
members have kept them and
would return them.
A month earlier, two dogs
were stolen from a Virginia Tech
veterinary medicine class, an
anonymous caller told the Colle-
giate Times, the student paper.
The caller explained vet stu-
dents were to perform surgery on
the dogs ? which would eventu-
ally be destroyed ? as part of
their class project, but that the
students grew attached to them
and stole them before they were
harmed.
Such experiments may be-
come unnecessary if Auburn
University veterinary medicine
Prof. Charles Branch succeeds in a
project, announced in March, to
develop video disks to teach stu-
dents surgery they leam now by
using live animalc.

marbelized design.
However, it becomes appar-
ent that almost everything m
Kammer-Monroe's section is
marbelized, even the drawings.
There is one non-marbelized paint-
ing but it seems out numbered
and doesn't really fit with theother
works. Kammer-Monroe is obvi-
ously an expert at Marbelizing,
but it would have been nice to see
what else she can do.
Linda Darty also displays
intricate and swirling motifs in
her metal designs. Darty's works
are divided mainly into jewelry
and lamps. However, the most
interesting piece is a tea set of
silver and rosewood decorated
with blue enamel fish.
The jewelry consists of gold
and silver. Some of the necklaces,
mooches, and earrings are high-
lighted with jewels and cloisonne.
The lamps, which are made of
aluminum, wood, and sterling sil-
ver, are more colorful and a little
more fun.
The paintings of John Han-
cock are massive, horizontal wa-
ter colors and acrylic on Unryn
paper. Reminiscent of Monet's
water lilies, they utilize the coarse
texture oi the paper to create a
liquid, stained glass effect.
Maria McLaughlin also works
on a massive scale. However, her
oil paintings evoke more somber
emotions. Using a predominantly
dark palette, McLaughlin layers
shapes to create a pattern of shad-
owy figures. When viewed from a
close angle, the intricate patterns
in these paintings can be fully
appreciated.
McLaughlin attempts the
same effect with three drawings.
Because of their brighter colors,
they aren't as successful as the
paintings, but they are interesting
nonetheless.
The finest works in the show
are those of Trudv Laudouceur.
Ladouceur's bright, realistic paint-
ings feature portions of figures,
often viewed from behind. "The
Bride and her Double presents
an incredibly detailed rendering
of lace, seed pearls, and satin folds.
The shoulder-to-hip view of the
figures creates an almost abstract
composition. It is an excellent
example of Ladouceur's work and
the best piece of the show.
The Embers, who are my mom's favorite group, will be playing at the Jaycees' Spring Break
festival this Sunday. Check it out.
Laura Soles, a pianist, will close out the Alumni Week festivities with a concert. Also performing

The last column of the se-

So I always feel a little pres-

with. I want to leave something
sticking in the readers' minds. I
want to make them anxious to
rush back to school after sum-
mer and hang out by the news-

lessly for my words of wit and
wisdom.
Sometimes I give awards.
Sometimes I count down the im-

say. I'm burned slam out.

but I just couldn't concentrate.
Maybe this summer.
I thought about a column
espousing the joys of pornogra-
phy. But I'm too tired to try to
defend myself from the tons of

feminists on campus. Maybe in
August.
1 said to myself, "Why not
just write a bunch oi personal
messages to all my friends?
Everyone likes to see his name in
print. It could be like 'Bonehead's
Personals?
That idea almost fired me
up. It's easy to write things like:
"ASHLEY: Killer date! Let's 'Rio'
again next week But then I re-
alized I'd probably forget some-
body and they'd be mad. Plus,
the Personals are so foolish any-
way.
I thought about writing an-
other installment in my popular
"Why Bonehead Hates Green-
ville" scries, but since everyone's
pretty much heard that song
enough, I'll let it lie until some-
thing particularly aggravating
comes along.
I toyed with the notion of
composing an epic love poem
based on the budding romance
dramatic potential oi, say, Bill
Shakespeare's "Romeo and Ju-
liet I'm just too tired to write it.
Maybe next semester, when
some more juicy aspects of this
sordid affair have been brought
to light.
So, since I didn't have any-
thing funny to write about, I fig-
ured I just wouldn't write a col-
umn at all this week. Then I real-
ized, "Hey! That's 20 bucksdown
the drain! I'd be foolish not to
write something! Plus, being the
role model that I am, I don't
want to add to the already ram-
pant apathy on this campus
So, here it is. Y'all have a
good summer, don't drink and
drive, be kind to all living crea-
tures, don'teat so much red meat,
and take 'ong walks after din-
ner. Until next time, may the
hangovers be gentle, and the

Everyone likes to see his name in
print. It could be like 'Bonehead's
Personals?
That idea almost fired me
up. It's easy to write things like:
"ASHLEY: Killer date! Let's 'Rio'
again next week But then I re-
alized I'd probably forget some-
body and they'd be mad. Plus,
the Personals are so foolish any-
way.
I thought about writing an-
other installment in my popular
"Why Bonehead Hates Green-
ville" series,butsinceeveryone's
pretty much heard that song
enough, I'll let it lie until some-
thing particularly aggravating
comes along.
I toyed with the notion of
composing an epic love poem
based on the budding romance
of my satiric pal Big E and his so-
rority chick girlfriend. Though
this is a relationship with the
dramatic potential of, say, Bill
Shakespeare's "Romeo and Ju-
liet I'm just too tired to write it.
Maybe next semester, when
some more juicy aspects of this
sordid affair have been brought
to light.
So, since I didn't have any-
thing funny to write about, 1 fig-
ured I just wouldn't write a col-
umn at all this week. Then I real-
ized, "HeyThaf s20bucksdown
the drain! I'd be foolish not to
write something! Plus, being the
role model that I am, I don't
want to add to the already ram-
pant apathy on this campus
So, here it is. Y'all have a
good summer, don't drink and
drive, be kind to all living crea-
tures, don'teat so much red meat,
and take long walks after din-
ner. Until next time, may the
hangovers be gentle, and the

Max Able able to rock, doesn't
ByJIMSHAMLIN
Staff Writer
"Somebody Spent Their Whole
Life There" is the title of Max
Abie's second album. Sky Records
promotes it with the phrase "Max
Able is Back but who knew that
he had left, or was even here in the
first place? Has he ever been a
guest VJ on MTV? No. Have any
of his songs been listed under "Col-
lege Music" in Rolling Stone? No.
Has he even made the WZMB top
thirteen list? No. Does this mean
that his music really reeks? No.
Abie's music falls into the broad
category of "progressive It has
an upbeat pulse and a melodic
rhythm ? like a hybrid of pre-
sellout REM and The Sugarcubes.
Each track is distinctive, but the
overall sound is a blend of classic
rock, blues, folk, and rockabilly.
The lyrics are as diverse as the
music itself. The lyrics range from
sweet, watery love poems such as
"I'm a-needin' to tell you your
love cures my blues" to the bi-
zarre "There are statuesof pigeons
with people sitting on them The
themes of his songs follow their
lyrics ? from an ex-soldier lost in
Viet Nam to a confused traveller
in Europe.
Abie's variety also shows in the
instruments which accompany
him. Along with the standard
drums, bass, and electric guitars,
there is a grand piano, a Ham-
mond organ, a slide guitar, tabia
drums, maracas, a steel guitar, and
an accordion. Also listed under
musical credits is a car skid and
eight Brittany Spaniels.
Perhaps the only thing that
remains the same throughout the
album is Abie's voice. His vocals
have the raw, nasal quality which
has become common in progres-
sive music. Although his vocal
range seems limited, his voice is
pleasant except for a few songs in
which he whines like Randy
Travis.
Producer Michael Harris writes,
"A Southern-born artist whose
songs possess the uncanny ability
to annihilate distances and differ-
ences between cultures and
people, Max Able writes and sings
from a distinctly late-century
vantage point While this maybe
an overstatement, Abie's music is
worth a second listen ? it shows
talent and variety.
There is one problem with an
artist who displays so much vari-
ety: a person who buys "Some-
body Spent Their Whole Life
There" because they heard one
track on a radio station may be
disappointed with the rest of it.
This may be the one thing that is
keeping Max Able on the shelves
and out of Rolling Stone.

Todav. onlv the names ot
Colonial-era villages remain,
along with remnants ot the
Tinev lifestyle. Few still follow
the traditional way, harvesting
cranberries, pine cones, clamsand
sphagnum moss to live off the
land.
"The Pinelands heritage is
going to die off ver) soon says
Kenneth Yates, a Tabernacle blue-

generations of Pmevs. "We don't

Pinelands in Jersey are
being slowly developed
EAGLESWOOD TOWN-
SHIP, NT (AP) ? To the nature
buff, New Jersey's Pinelands are
milesoi pvgmv pines, deep forest,
creeks and bogs.
To romantics, the Pinelands
might be symbolized by the Ware-
town cabin where fiddler George
Albert once played through the
night, or the general store in
Chatsworth that still offers a table
for coffee and gossip.
In folklore, it's the birthplace
of the Jersey Devil, a place where
men live in caves and marrv their
sisters
But to some landowners,
"Pinelands, is only a title, an
annoying federal designation that
stifles development and profit.
In reality, the more than 1.1
million acres constituting the Pi-
nelands in southern New lersev
are a unique medley of tremen-
dous historical and environmental
significance.
Ringed by the urban sprawl
that gave New Jersey a bad name,
the region gained national recog-
nition in November 1978 when
President Jimmy Carter signed the
National Parks and Recreation Act
that included the creation of the
Pinelands National Reserve.
Carter's act stopped any talk
of a supersonic jetport in the
middle of this vast space, a fright-
ening prospect for an area already
being invaded by the rush of
metropolitan housing developers.
Ten years ago. it seemed that
nothing within two hours of New
York City would be left un-
touched.
But the Pinelands reserve, the
largest remaining open tract in
the mid-Atlantic states, was saved.
In a unique arrangement, the
state of New Jersy manages the
federal reserve, keeping large-
scale development in outlying
areas and maintaining the undis-
turbed nature of thousands of
acres in the middle. The state, with
federal financial help, is slowly
buving property to add to the to-
tal reserve, most of which is still
privately owned.
The state Pinelands Commis-
sion now operates with a manage-
ment plan that is both com mended
and condemned. In addition, 56
municipalities within the Pine-
lands are involved in modifying
their master development plans
to make them conform with the
goals of the protection effort.
"When the Tinelands plan
developed, there had to be accom-
modations, and some people were
hurt and some people were
helped says Pearl Schwartz of
Toms River, a member of the
Ocean County Environmental
Agency and the Ocean Nature
Society.
"But the overall picture that
has emerged in 10 years has been
on the side of good. We have been
able to control growth, which is
not happening in the rest of the
state
More than 100 years ago, the
parts of Atlantic, Burlington,
Camden, Cape May, Cumberland,
Gloucester and Ocean counties
that are now the Pinelands made
up a proserous ring of charcoal
and glass industries utilizing the
bountiful raw materials. In later
years, sawmillsand wineries flour-
ished.

Bye Paul!
i or the last week of this semester, the last week o' college for many of you (sniff, sniff) we end
with a last cartoonist biography. Sure, ifs a narcisstic thing to do, but cartoonists are
interesting people, and need all the publicity they can get This last bum is Jeff Parker, the
. ditor (haw) of the comics page and staff illus-writer. He started doing the Undercover Cats in
985, and since then it has evolved into Tails of the Undercover Cats, presenting almost
everything but the cats. Parker has also been known to draw lots of women, which for some
eason makes women mad. At least he doesn't slap his face all over the page every week any
more. You oughta get to know him, he's a nice guy. Even if he does talk about himself in the
third person. And there you are.
THE INTERVIEW THAT CHALLENGED THE WORLD
Who or what influenced you in your comics work? Steve Rude, Harvey
Kurtzman, Alan Moore, Dave Stevens, Norman Rockwell, Hank
Ketcham.
What is your greatest achievement? once started a lemonade stand it

more popular accolade: Trump Industries
Greatest failure? Nor becoming an English major sooner. And selling my
Irmonade stand.
Career ambitions: To write and illustrate comics, then write novels, turn
the novels into screenplays, and direct them. And I can do it, too.
Favorite books: TTie Lord of the Rings trilogy, Huckleberry Finn, The
rower of Myth, To Kill a Mockingbird, Burroughs stuff, and various

This is the end of an era. Paul Friedrich is currently the longest running
cartoonist (he can go three miles without cramps) on the Pirate Comics page,
and is now going to graduate after all this time. Overkill began in 1984 as a
small strip with such oddities as the Prophet Sheepdog and other characters
with great big eyes. For a very short while it sort of became a strip called
Zimmy, with characters who were almost nothing but eyes. And then came
the Bluetowelskis, a lovable family that all died off except for Uncle Lou,
Hubie, and the occasional Steve Scary. Paul has had an incredibly funny strip
every week now for a long time, and he always made his deadlines. No one
can ever forget Surfin' with the Lizard King, The Return of Henry Ford,
Uncle Lou's 29 Things To Do On the Toilet, What if Uncle Lou and Hubie
met Other Cartoon Characters, and tons more. He showed up to every
cartoonist meeting, too? but that had something to do with free beer. He's
one of the nicest guys in the world, and a pleasure to work with. We wish
him a lot of success in the real world, and this page will not be the same
without him. Thanks, Paul, we'll miss you more than class.
?The East Carolinian, The Comics Page
I'd like to take this remaining space to thank my good friends and co-workers, the cartoonists of
this fine page. Special merit goes to Tom Gurganus and Richard Haselrig, who have often
laboured long into the night to finish their respective comics, and consistently turn out great
work. Rik, the frat boy strip is really coming along well, and its funny. I don't even bother
censoring it anymore. Paul, you've got enough praise for one lifetime, you're deified now. Steve,
thanks for the entertaining Laws, and letting us all live in your home now and then. And
Micah, thanks for all the good counsel and writing?your plan ultimately worked, you do
control most of this page. We'll be famous someday. Though I may stay up incredibly late
putting this darn page together (especially that EPIC last week), its alwavs worth it because
of the quality of people I get to weak with. Thanks, friends, for making this a page to be proud
of. ?Parker

Young hurlers find going rough
Monarchs nip Pirates with five big runs in second inning
By CHRIS SIEGEL
Sports Kiitur
Following the heartbreaking
losses to UNC-Wilmington last
weekend, ECU had the unenvi-
able task o traveling to Norlfolk,
Va to take on Old Dominion
University. ECU threw a trio of
young pitchers at the Monarchs,
who pitched well for the Pirates,
but not well enough to win. The
Pirates fell 7-5 to ODU.
The Pirates jumped on the
Monarchs early scoringone run in
the first inning. John Adams
singled with one out in the first
and scored on Calvin Brown's
double to left center.
The Monarchs weren't to be
held quiet for long. In the bottom
of the second, ODU pushed five
runs across freshman pitcher Tom
Moye. With one out, Scott Th-
ompson singled and came in to
score on Dan Barbara's home run.
The round-tripper put the Mon-
archs up 2-1.
ODU continued to push runs
across off Moye. Chuck Lane
singled and Hafling followed with
a base hit. Lane scored on a drive
by Pat Evangelista. The run
pushed the the lead to 3-1 and
chased Moye from the game
Rodney Colvin came in to
relieve Moye and struck out the
next batter to get the second out
He then hit Ty Dawkins to load
the bases. Barry Miller drove a
double off Colvin to plate Hafling
and Evagelista. The two runs fin-
ished off the Monarch's five-run
second inning and gave them a 5-
1 lead.
ODU tacked on single runs in
the fourth and fifth to push the
lead 7-1. With David Willis on the
mound, Curt Schaffer doubled,
then scored on a wild pitch later in
the fourth inning. Hafling would
hit an RBI single in the fifth that
scored ODU's seventh and final
run.
The Pirates would try to rally
late in the game pushing two runs
across in the seventh and two in
the eighth, but that would be all
they could do. In the eighth,
Adams would get a bunt single
and Tommy Eason walked. After
advancing, both runners scored
on a single by Chris Cauble.
In the ninth, ECU put two
more runs on the board. Mike
Andrews led off with a single, but
was erased on David Ritchie's
infield grounder. Ritchie stole
second and scored when John
Thomas reached on an error.
Adams walked, but he was also
forced at second on Eason'sgroun-
der. There was an error on the
throw to first which allowed
Thomas to score. That made the
score 7-5, but the Pirates could get
no closer.
ECU was lead by Adams who
was three for four with two runs
scored. Andrews also had a mul-
tiple hit game as he collected two
hits for the Pirates.
The loss moved the Pirates to
26-6 on the season and the Mon-
archs went to 21-15.

Football's unsung heroes: managers' role invaluable
By STEVE ALLEN
Staff Writer
When East Carolina's football
team takes the field for a game ev-
eryone notices the coaches, the
quarterbacks, the defensive line-
men and the offensive linemen.
But, when one looks at the equip-
ment the playersare wearing, they
hardly notice who is responsible
for repairing jerseys, helmets and
shoulder pads; the football man-
agers.
A lot of people think that
football managers have an easy
iob. Manager Judd Crumler will
argue that they don't just show up
at games with no idea of what to
do. He said, "Our fall season starts
during the furst of August. We
work all day, every day until
school starts, and then it eases off
slightly. He continued, "I think
that when people say this job is
easy, they don't realize what we
have to do

takes a of of dedication for this job.
He said, "It's a lot of hard work.

ceed It takes a person with a
tough hide to make it as a man-
ager, and as Liggett added, any-
one who doesn't want to work
and put in the time won't make it.
Football managers endure
hours of practice, just as the play-
ers do. They have to set up the
field 30 minutes before the play-
ers are supposed to practice. Prac-
tice dummies have to be set up,
and any broken equipment must
be fixed. Also, meetings must be
held with coaches to see what is in
store for that practice.
When game time rolls around,
players must have clean helmets
and jerseys, new stickers on their field, and when he was ten, he was

When the ECU. football play-
ers hit the road for an away game,
the managers have to really take a
deep breath, because that is when
things can get really frustrating.
Equipment manager Fred
Sponhaltz said the pace becomes
frantic on the road. He said,
"Things have to be done ina hurry.
We have to make arrangements
for the weekend, and be at the
airport at a specific time
Sponhaltz said the association
with this coworkers is what keeps
him going on the job, especially
during away games.
Crumpler said the managers
are at a disadvantage during the
away games because they are out-
numbered. He said, "When we

Pirate's Booty
Football fan support starts with spring game
By CHRIS SIEGEL
Sport Editor
Saturday marks the beginning
of a new era in Pirate football.
First year head coach Bill Lewis
and his Pirates will bring to an end
their spring practice by playing
their inter-squad scrimmage in
connection with the 6th Annual
Great Pirate PurpleGold Pigskin
Pigout Party.
The team will take to the field
on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in what through a lot of hard work and
many hope will be the start of a
winning Pirate program. With a
new head coach and a new look
for the Pirate team, their is a lot of
enthusiasm about thisyear'steam.
Pirate fans have seen a de-
cline in Pirate football since the
successful 1983 season. Since going
8-3 in 1983, the Pirates have not
been able to gain a winning record
in five seasons. Attendance for the
most part has been down since
1985 and fans have been scarce at
some contests the past few years.
