Anv students wishing to reg-
ister for English courses taught
during the spring semester may
now do so.
All numbers of English sec-
tions needed by students are cur-
rently being offered. "All they
(students) have to do is attempt to
register for these courses Dr.
Keats Sparrow, chairman of the
English department, said. If a
desired English course appears to
be full the student may return to
the registrar's office at a later time
to obtain the needed course, ac-
cording to Sparrow.
"There has been a lot of mis-
informatioi spread throughout
campus concerning cutbacks
within the English department
Sparrow said. However, "there
have been no permanent cutbacks
in teaching positions
According to Sparrow, tem-
porary teaching positions are
loaned to the English department
based upon student need. The
English department has made
arrangements to rehire 11 out of
13 temporary instructors who
taught English coursesdunng the
fall semester. If student need
arises, the English department
may be re-hiring the two tempo-
rary instructors who they were
forced to dismiss.
Each department must antici-
pate the number of students regis-
tering for courses within its field
of study. According to Sparrow,
courses are allotted based upon
estimated figures. Perhaps these
estimates are what has caused
misinformation to be spread about
theavailibihtv of English courses
and the number of instructors,
Sparrow said.
"We have been given the staff
positions for the spring semester
that we need to accomodate the
students Sparrow said "The
university is working very coop-
eratively with our department,
keeping the students' best inter-
ests in mind
According to Sparrow, any
student who has completed or is
currently enrolled in Fnghsh 11(X)
who wnshes to take Fnghsh 121X1

ECU should be an institution
which supports quality teaching.

Student organizations now
have the go ahead to start painting
theirinsignias on the street in front
of. the Student Store. After two
years th. street has finally been
paved and is now ready for the
final touch-up.
Last Friday some student
orgamzationsbegan splashing the
sidewalk with paint in an effort to
leave, what they hope will be, a
long-lasting impression of their
organization.
The idea for paving and paint-
ing of the street came about from a
Student Government Association
resolution authored last year by
legislators MartvHelmsandTripp
Roakes. After being bounced
around by the Campus Solicita-
tion Committee, Chancellor Rich-
ard Eakin gave the go ahead for
the plan earlier this year.
A seven and half foot by eight
plot can be purchased for groups
to place their insignias on ft r only
$30. So far over 50 spots have been
purchased; however, a tew spots
still remain. Any student regis-
tered organization is eligible to
purchase a spot. The rules are
simple, just stay in your lines
Although eight to ten groups
began painting last Friday, stu-
dent organizations can begin
painting again this Fridav after 2
p.m. and also on Saturday morn-
ing. The same schedule will be in
effect for next week as well.
It is not known for sure when
the street will be completed but
Roakes, now president of SGA,
said "1 would love tor it to be
completed by Christmas break
Organizations interested in
reserving a spot should contact
Roakes at the SGA office located
in the U-wing of Mendenhall Stu-
dent Center or by calling the SGA
office at 757-4726.
Pacesetters begin fund drive
By THOMAS BARRY
A major fund-raising cam-
paign began n Nov. 28 and will
continue running through June 30,
190 on behalf of Fast Carolina
Universitv s Performing Arts Se-
ries.
The campaign was officially
kicked-oft at the homeof Chancel-
lor and Mrs. Richard Eakin and is
thefirst formal activity undertaken
by the Performing Arts Paceset-
ters Mrs. Fakinisa member of the
Pacesetters board of directors.The
board is chaired by Ilene Entin
Cox, and ECU liaison for the group
is Stuart Secttor.
The Pacesetters is a new com-
munity-based support group
which serves as an auxiliary of
ECU's Performing Arts Series. It
was founded in midsummer by
community volunteers and will
function in a variety of ways to
assist the Performing Arts Series
in fund-raising, subscription
drives and social activities.
Some projects already under-
way this year include the opening
night reception preceding the per-
formance of the Beaux Arts Tno, a
progressive dinner following the
February performance of "Dream
Girls a gala accompanying the
Itzhak Perlman concert in April,
the allocation of funds for the
purchase of several items tor
Wright Auditonum,and theinau-
gural plaque fund-raising project.
An inaugural plaque, which
displays the names of individuals
or organizations which contrib-
uted funds, will be permanently
placed in the main foyer of Wright
Auditorium at the beginning of
the 1990-1991 Performing Arts
Series season.
The three categories are Gold
Circle (contributors of $1000 or
more will have their name en-
graved on a gold plate), Silver
Circle (contributors of $500-$999,
will receive their name engraved
on a silver plate) and Bronze Circle
(contributors of $250-$499 will
receive their name on a bronze
plate).
All contributors will receive a
10 percent discount at the Paceset-
ters boutique, first priority and
early seating choice on Perform-
ing Arts Series season tickets and
other specified benefits. All gifts
to the Pacesetters campaign are
tax deductible.
All season subscribers to
ECU's Performing Arts Series are
automatically granted member-
ship in the Pacesetters organiza-
tion but are not eligible for all of
the privileges that belong to the
members of Pacesetters.
Seventy percent of the funds
raised in this campaign will be
placed in a interest-bearing en-
dowment account. Only the inter-
est will be made available for use
to benefit the Performing Arts Se-
ries. The remaining 30 percent will
remain inan lnterest-bearingfoun-
darion account which will be avail-
able to the Pacesetters for their
discretion and operating capital.
"The Performing Arts Series
has presented quality perform-
ances for many, many years, but
with the costs continually on the
rise, the ability of the Department
of University Unions to maintain
and enhance the offerings has been
stretched Cox said. "It will be
the main focus of the Pacesetters
to alleviate the strain in this area
The aid derived from the Pace-
setters organization is invaluable,
but it also guarantees that the cul-

performing pap smear examina-
tions routinely health care provid-
ers may be able to detect evidence
of dieases years before any dam-
age is done.
A pap smear is a microscopic
examination of cellsobtained from
both the endo and ecto cervix. The
cervix is at the end of the uterus
and is composed of two types of
cells, squamous and endocervical
cells. These two types of cells are
important in the pap smear evalu-
ation. These cells can take on a
different appearance under a
microscope which can mean sev-
eral things. Pap smears can detect
some infections such as yeast,
genital warts, herpes and cellular
changes such as atypia, dsyplasia,
and cancer.
Dsyplasia is a term used to
describe abnormal cells which are
not malignant. Left untreated these
cells continue to grow multiply,
exams can also detect changes that
may indicate early invasive can-
cer of the cervix. Dsyplasia of early
invasive cervical cancer does not

Christ in X-mas
Christmas time should be a
time of laughter, joy and spend-
ing time with frttTids. Wtththr
hustle and bustle of the Christmas
season, we should stop and reflect
what Christmas is really all about
Americans have really gone
the distance, trying to start Christ-
mas two weeks before Thanksgiv-
ing.
Economic powers have com-
mercialized Christmas by placing
trees, lights, and other accessories
along with the 1 lallo ween decora-
tions. There is also a common ten-
dency of cutting unnecessary
writing. ButChristmasshould not
be based on shiny packages, a fat
man in a red suit, or even on a
twenty pound turkey in the oven.
Christmas should remind us of
the Savior, Jesus Christ and his
birth in Bethlehem. Also, if you
stop to consider what the Savior
did for the world, 1 don't believe
that the "Christ" before "mas" is
unnecessary writing. If the world
doesn't care enough to even put
christ where he belongs now, what
will future generations know of
the infant Jesus?
I feel that each person should
take a better look at themselves
and reflect on the true meaning oi
Christmas.
Everybody should begin a
GREAT campaign to "Take the X
our of X-mas and replace it with

To the editor:
When I was a kid, I read the
story of the little fir tree; one De-
cember it was cut and taken by a
family to be a Christmas tree. It
was decorated, danced and sung
around, and celebrated. When
Christmas was over, the family
took down the little fir tree, put it
in the attic, and forgot about it.
All year the little fir tree waited
until he would be decorated and
celebrated again. But the next
winter, when the family remem-
bered him, they pulled him out
into the yard, chopped up hisdead
branches, and burnt him up. And
that was the end of his dreams.
Every Christmasl think about
that story. And in the current con-
cern about dwindling natural re-
sourcesandtheexploitationofour
environment, I have begun to view
the killing of trees? or buying of
already dead ones? at Christmas
time in a new light. Massive de-
forestation around the world,
particularly in the Western hemi-
sphere, has already created such
problems as topsoil erosion and
loss of animal habitats, and con
tributes tooone depletion, global
wanning, and the Greenhouse
effect. When we are losing a spe-
cies or more a day in the Amazon
ram forests, and environmental
groups tight daily battles to save
our own Old Growth Forests in
the Pacific Northwest, it seems
ludicrous to continue to support
an industry which kills trees
merely for the sake of human
decorations
Now, the economic argument
tor the Christmas tree industry is
clear: these farms provide eco-
nomic opportunit) for tin- people
who run them However, coca
plant farms provide a living tur
the producers and sellers it co
came, selling drugs provides a
living tor drug dealers, i he pro i-
sion ol economic opportunit)
-alone is not a pnvincina argu
irfbnrfofarfV inchistrV. " " ? "
But, you sav, these trees are
grown specifically lor harvesting
and selling. We are not cutting
virgin forest or ram forest or in
any way depleting a natural re-
source We are simply har esting
a crop Bui the crop we are bar
vesting is not one which fulfills
any biological or even emotional
need; a dead tree in our living
room during the month ot Decem-
ber is simply a monument to
human vanity, a memorial to a
perspective of the Earth which is
completely self-centered and an-
thropocentric.
This last term is a recently
coined on which expresses thee
human particularly Western
human view of the world and
its creatures as being here solel)
for human benefit It is a perspec
live which many environmental-
ists feel have led us to where we
currently stand on the brink ol
environmental disaster. A recent
article in the UTNE READER
outlines 133 ways to save the Earth;
12, under the heading oi "Phi-
losophies suggests that we
"never use life-forms merely as
means. Remain conscious of their
intrinsic value and dignity Now,
killing a tree )ust to decorate it in
your living room does not, it seems
to me, recognize the intrinsic alue
of that tree. It isobjectificationofa
once living creature ? to be looked
at, garnished, and perhaps even
celebrated, but objectified none-
theless.
And a tree is not an object. It is
not a television, a store' or even a
piece of art. It is a living, respi-
rating creature with a beaut) and
value and joy and yes, perhaps
even a soul, all its own. And 1
don't see how killing such an
unassuming, innocuous creature
can add to a celebration of any-
thing especially the and life
Christians are supposedly cele-
brating on December 25.
None of which is to sav that
von should not have a Christmas
tree ? oreven that you must have
an artificial one. Several alterna-
tives exist to the dead Douglas Fir
or Red Spruce, chopped down
weeks before and already shed-
ding its needles. There are Christ-
mas tree farms and sellers which
offer live trees, dug rather than
chopped, which can be planted in
your yard after the holiday season
is over. Through this alternative,
you can add living tree to vour life
each year, as opposed to killing

While the presidents ot the

The First Amendment is al-

to amend the Bill et Rights alter
the Supreme c eurt ruled m une
that the 1 irst Amendment pro
tected flag burning, but with stu-
dents at prestigious colleges now
intent on limiting spec h tor a
greater social good, the 1 irst
amendment will become even
more vulnerable to attack in the
years ahead.
But shouldn't there be omc
punishment of especially hurtful,
insulting, mturiating words?
When he was mayor of Chicago,
Harold Washington was asked to
punish those responsible for in-
flammatory language that had
gone out over a citv radio station
According to his former press
secretary, he refused, saying, "111
scratch one word, where do 1
stop?"
The current college codes
began in response to crude racial
and sexist scrawls. But now the
language being scratched out ex-
tends to any words that create a
hostile atmosphere or any lan-
guage that "involves as express or
implied threat to an individual's
academic efforts" what ever
that may mean.
1 lecture at colleges and uni-
versities around the country ev-
ery year, and 1 intend to sav what
1 think about these shameful
speech codes. At some schools, 1
may thereby be creating a hostile
atmosphere in lecture halls w here
there are students who sav they
crave censorship.
And that is precisely my in-
tention: to create an atmosphere
hostile to suppression ot speech
lor any reason.
Recently, friends of the First
Amendment were given reason
tor hope when a Federal district
court in Michigan struck down
the University of Michigan's re-
striction on student speech as
unconstitutional. They are too
vague and overboard, said Judge
Avern Cohn, and therefore in
violation of the First Amendment.
The suit was brought by the
A.L.I .1.

on university suppression ot
speech, and since it is so clear, it

colleges and universities that they

University grants $5 billion to invest in market
By David Craig
.?nnett Srwi Servu
Ohio State University is gn
me of its students a shot at
' - on stock portfolio manage-
t
Beginning Ian. 2, students
ed in the Columbus-based
k1 s business financeclass will
- i million of the university's
? men! fund to invest in the
Bush
Stresses
Prudence
? A nalvsis
stock market. Other schools, in-
cluding the University of Wiscon-
sin and Texas Tech University,
have similar programs, but Ohio
State's will be the biggest
Not that Ohio State is going
out on a limb. "We had our trial
last year says Stephen A Buser,
the finance professor who U at hes
the course called The Stock Mar
ket. Students managed a "Monop
oly money" fund with an imagi
narvSl million that was intended
to teach them the basics of invest-
ing.
I he students caught on
quickly. During the year ended
Sept V, the Monopoly fund pro-
duced a paper profit between
c apital appreciation and dividend
payments of 22.7
Although that performance
trailed the Standard & Poor's (KV-
stock index's 28.4'T return tor the
same period, the students out-
shone the professional money
managers who handle most of
Ohio State's $301 million invest-
ment portfolio. The pros produced
profits for the year ranging from
1155 to 21.
The program will work this
way: Each quarter the 30-student
business finance class either
undergraduate or graduate, de-
pending on the period will be
treated as a collective money
manager. The student investors
will have to adhere to the same
restrictions imposed on other Ohio
State investments: No foreign
stocks or stocks in companies that
do business in South Africa. Also,
no options or futures. "There are
some circuit breaks Buser savs.
"We don't see them getting into
high-risk situations, so it's unlikely
they'll fare far worse than the
general market
Also, the performance of the
student-managed portfolio will be
examined oncea year by the board
of trustees' investment commit-
tee. If the portfolio does well, Buser
says the program probably will be
extended and may even be allot-
ted more endowment fund money.
If the students' investments turn
out to be dogs, "the funds could be
reduced or withdrawn entirely
Buser says.

Alcohol and tobacco remain drugs
of choice for high school seniors
MANILA, Philippines ?
Some questions and answers
about the remnants of the latest
coup attempt against Philippine
President Corazon Aquino:
QUESTION: What's happen-
ing to U.S. citizens trapped bv
mutinous troops in downtown
Manila?
ANSWER: An estimated 215
U.S. citizens wereamongthe2,000
foreigners pinned down in three
luxury hotels in the Makati finan-
cial district. An earlier cease-fire
had allowed scores of others to
leave before, but continued fight-
ing prevented the negotiation of
another cease-fire. However, one
rebel military officer said the
remaining U.S. citizens might not
be allowed to flee because of
unhappiness with U.S. efforts to
prop up Aquino.
Q: What is the status of the
?By DUtttt PA1 TLKbUN
Th? AnortMM Trnn
RALEIGH (AP) A state-
wide survey of school students
shows that alcohol and tobacco
remain the drugs of choice I
children in grades 7 through 12,
with a dramatic increase in the
number of seventh- and eighth-
graders trying alcohol, state offi-
cials said today.
The survey this year of 11,531
students showed that 62.3 percent
of seventh- and eighth-graders
indicated they had tried alcohol at
least once. A 1987survey showed
that only 39.7 percent of those
students had tried alcohol
The survey showed that s" 3
percent of all juniors and seniors
reported trying alcohol this vear,
compared to 75.6 percent in lWs
"We have to have a clearer
message about 'gateway sub
stances said Steve Hicks, the
consultant for the state Depart-
ment of Public Instruction on d ru2
awareness programs. Hicks said
"gateway substances like ciga-
rettes and alcohol, can lead to
harder drugs, such as cocaine and
marijuana. Hicks said the survey
indicated that about 77,000 stu-
dents in grades 7 through 12 are
"problem drinkers" who have had
some difficulty with parents,
friends or other adults as a result
of their drinking.
Both Hicks and state schixl
Superintendent Bobby Ethendge
said the survey shows that more
efforts need to bo made in drug
prevention among elementary
students Those efforts should
concentrate on the use of ciga-
rettes and alcohol, thev said. Eth-
endge said creating networks of
parents and friends to help stu-
dents with smoking and drinking
problems might be more impor-
tant than tougher laws to keep
tobacco and alcohol out of the
hands of young students.
"I'm not sure the issue is leg-
islation, as much as it is educa-
tion Etheridge said "It's going
to take some doing, and some
doing bevond just the schools
Hicks viid the survey indi-
cated a decline in the use of co-
caine and other hard drugs bv
students, despite the increasing
availability of such drugs. Hicks
said the survey showed that drug
and alcohol use by high school
seniors is about the same in North
Carolina as the national average,
with a slightly higher percentage
of N.C. students using manuana.
The survey showed thatabout
5 percent of all students have tried
hashish, 4.5 percent have used
cocaine, 1.5 percent have tried
crack and l.s percent have used
steroids.
Hicks said about ,(HX) N.C.
students have used steroids, with
about half ii those being athletes.
Steroids are commonly used to
build muscles and strength, but
have a number of side effects in-
cluding irrational behavior and
possible sterility.
coup attempt:
financial district, in trsPcond day,
apparently is the last main pocket
of the mutiny. At least 77 people
have died and more than 540 were
wounded since the coup started.
In addition to the estimated 400
rebels in the Makati district, a
similar number still occupied the
Mactan Air Base in Cebu, 350 miles
south of Manila, despite an ulti-
matum to leave the garrison.
Q: What is the current U.S.
role?
A: White House spokesman
Marlin Fitzwater said Aquino has
not requested additional U.S.
military support. But he said Presi-
dent Bush was keeping options
open as he weighs the best way to
protect U.S. citizens. Before the
Malta summit, Bush ordered U.S.
F-4 Phantom jet fighters to
scramble and provide air cover
for loyal government troops,
which kept rebel-flown planes on
the ground.
Q: How did most Filipinos feel
about the sight of Air Force F-4
Phantoms Hying over Manila last
week?
A: Some Manila residents said
the United States was "meddling
Others saw the air cover as dra-
matic evidence of the need for U .S.
military aid.
Q: Has Aquino demonstrated
strength or weakness
A: This insurrection was more
serious than the five earlier coup
attempts. Rightists seem to be
undermining Aquino's power,
though most of the armed forces
support her. It was probably in-
evitable that her image of reform
would fade amid pervasive cor-
ruption and economic difficulties.
Still, she remains a popular figure
and would probably win if an
election were held today.
Q: What are the main com-
plaints against her?
A: The right says Aquino has
done little to bring about real
military security against the com-
munist-led rebel group, the New
People's Army (NPA). Leftists say
she represents U.S. "imperialism"
and is carrying on the exploitative
policies of Ferdinand Marcos ?
whom she toppled from power in
1986.
Q: How does Aquino respond
to critics?
A: The nation has improved
economically. The Philippine
gross national product was up 6.8
percent after solid decreases in the
last two to three years of the Mar-
cos reign. The armed forces have
also cut the threat from the NPA.
Q: Where does Aquino stand
on the issue of U.S. bases?
A: She hasremained noncom-
mittal ona treaty to allow the Navy
and Air Force bases to stay after
the current agreement ends in
1991. She is eager, however, for
increased U.S. trade and invest-
ment ?along with more economic
aid as "rent" for the bases.

? Pay scales tied to cost-of-

At private schools, contracts
often are individually negotiated,
which may permit wider salary
variances between teachers, Lee
says.
A key source of the public
school gap could be the practice of
not allowing full credit for past
experience when teachers return
to work after time off to raise a
family. For example, a 15-year

says Keith Geiger, president of the

chipper enough to joke with a

are indeed rosier with the Soviets

that there are still "great differ-

over problems in Central America

sensitive time.
Many in Congress, elated by
the prospect of a trimmed-down

to spend more in long-neglected
domestic areas: housing, health

They've been held in check
over most of the last decade by

RALEIGH (AP) - A state-
wide survey of school students
shows that alcohol and tobacco
remain the drugs of choice for
children in grades 7 through 12,
with a dramatic increase in the
humber of seventh- and eighth-
graders trying alcohol, state offi-
cials said today.
The survey this year of 11,531
students showed that 62.3 percent
of seventh- and eighth-graders
indicated they had tried alcohol at
least once. A 1987 survey showed
that only 39.7 percent of those
students had tried alcohol.
The survey showed that 87.3
percent of all juniors and seniors
reported trying alcohol this year,
compared to 75.6 percent in 1987.
"We have to have a clearer
message about 'gateway sub-
stances said Steve Hicks, the
consultant for the state Depart-
ment of Public Instruction on d rug
awareness programs. Hicks said
?gateway substances tike ciga-
rettes and alcohol, can lead to
harder drugs, such as cocaine and
marijuana. Hicks said the survey
indicated that about 77,000 stu-
dents in grades 7 through 12 are
"problem drinkers" who have had
some difficulty with parents,
friends or other adults as a result
of their drinking.
Both Hicks and state school
Superintendent Bobby Etheridge
said the survey shows that more
efforts need to be made in drug
prevention among elementary
students. Those efforts should
concentrate on the use of ciga-
rettes and alcohol, thev said. Eth-
eridge said creating networks of
parents and friends to help stu-
dents with smoking and drinking
problems might be more impor-
tant than tougher laws to keep
tobacco and alcohol out of the
hands of young students.
"I'm not sure the issue is leg-
islation, as much as it is educa-
tion Ethendge said. "It's going
to take -some doing, and
doing beyond just the schools
Hicks said the survey indi-
cated a decline in the use of co-
caine and other "hard drugs" by
students, despite the increasing
availability of such drugs. Hicks
said the survey showed that drug
and alcohol use by high school
seniors is abou t the same in North
Carolina as the national average,
with a slightly higher percentage
of N.C. students using marijuana.

5 percent of all students have tried

about half of those being athletes.
Steroids are commonly used to

possible sterility.

Some questions and answers
about the remnants of the latest
coup attempt against Philippine
President Corazon Aquino:
QUESTION: What's happen-
ing to U.S. citizens trapped by
mutinous troops in downtown
Manila?
ANSWER: An estimated 215
U.S. citizens wcreamong the 2,000
foreigners pinned down in three
luxury hotels in the Makati finan-
cial district. An earlier cease-fire
had allowed scores of others to
leave before, but continued fight-
ing prevented the negotiation of
another cease-fire. However, one
rebel military officer said the
remaining U.S. citizens might not
be allowed to flee because of
unhappiness with U.S. efforts to
prop up Aquino.

Soviet ship assists U.S.

ST. rAL'l . Minn. (AP) ?The
Soviet Union has agreed to supply
fuel to the Antarctic expedition
led by Minnesotan Will Steger,
preventing an early end to the
4,lXX)-mile ski and sled dog ad-
venture.
Until the Soviets stepped for-
ward Monday, the International
Trans-Antarctica Expedition faced
the possibility of abandoning its
historic journey at the South Pole,
where it is expected to arrive next
week.
It was really senous said
Cynthia Mueller, a spokeswoman
at the expedition's St. Paul head-
quarters.
The expedition has been jeop-
ardized by breakdowns in the air
support provided by Adventure
Network International Inc a
Canadian firm that has a monop-
oly on non-government flight
transportation in Antarctica.
Trans-Antarctica's $1.5 million
logistical contract calls tor Ad ven-
ture Network to place food caches
and provide emergency rescue
from the beginning of the expedi-
tion on the Antarctic Peninsula to
the So let scientific base at Vos-
tok, where the Soviets take over
that responsibility.
However, finicky weatheTand
repeated nm-hanicaMfcircj by ?
Adventure Network's cargo ear-
ner, an aging DC-6, left the expe-
dition wi thou t supplies east of the
Thiel Mountains, which it passed
more than a week ago. Now,
within 22(1 miles and om week ot
the South Pole, the expedition
feared running out ot food tor
Steger, his five companions and
30 sled dogs.
'Without a sufficient supply
of fuel at the pole for resupply and
rescue operations, the expedition
would have been forced to halt
operations next week said
spokeswoman Jennifer Kimball
Gasperini.
The Soviets, who are limited
partners in the expedition, said
Monday thatas much as 12t.nsof
Soviet-owned airplane fuel will
bo waiting for the expedition at
the South Pole, meaning the dot,
mushers will be able to receive
food and have a rescue plane
standing by as thov continue east
across the Area ot Inaccessibility,
a remote stretch ot ice bet v een the
South Pole and Vostok.
The Soviets will sell the expe-
dition fuel already cached at the
South Pole, rather than nsk a flight
across the continent. Although
details are still being negotiated,
the Soviet aid will cost Trans-
Antarctica as much as $200,000.
The expedition, which began
July 27. is making its seven-month
journey to bring world attention
to Antarctica and to demonstrate
thr powv oHniecnaticnal corv i

Of extraordinary medical meas-

Court has handed down since
1973. Groups that tight for fairer
treatment for the disabled assert
that if the court allows Cruzan to
die, the lives of millions of others
deemed incompetent to make
medical decisions ? from victims
oi Alzheimer's disease to the au-
tistic ? are in jeopardy.
Former Surgeon General C.
Everett Koop, in a bnef to thecourt,
warned the justices that if a "right
todic" isfound in theConstirution,
its application "would know vir-
tually no limits Abortion oppo-
nents, also in the fray, draw paral-
lels between a state's interest in
death with a state's interest in birth.
"Now is surely not the time
said Dave Andrusko of the Na-
tional Right to Life Committee, to
extend the court's "killer ethic"
that supports abortion rights to
"millions of other helpless vic-
tims
But other organizations say
Cruzan has a "right to die" as a
logical extension of her constitu-
tional protections of her privacy
and liberty.
"Mandating a particular form
of medical treatment to an incom-
petent patient over the objections
of her family is an offensive and
potentially limitless exercise of
governmental power said
Fenella Rouse of the Society for
the Right to Die.
The American Medical Asso-
ciation estimates that 70 percent
of Americans will have some
experience with the issue; an asso-
ciation poll also found that two-
thirds of physicians had been
involved in a decision to with-
draw life-sustaining treatment.
The agonizing debate is not an
abstraction to the Cruzans.
"If they knew Nancy the way
Nancy'sfamily knowsNancv, they
would know that Nancy would be
horrified at this existence that she
is forced to endure said Joe
Cruzan.
University of Pittsburgh pro-
fessor Alan Meisel, an expert on
the matter, said that if the high
court gives states the power to
intervene ? a stand the Bush
administration advocates ? "The
message it will send to hospitals
and doctors is to err on the side of
caution and keep patients alive
when they might otherwise not
have. That will impose terrible
burdens on families

Coach Steele talks about life after basketball
By DEBRA BLAKE
Special is Th? East Carolinian
His kids are obviously one of
his major concerns. He is not only
a coach, but a family man.
Sometimes life gets tough, and
it is difficult for him to go home
without his work because coach-
ing is not a 9-to-5 deal. However,
Mike Steele will make it home,
even if he gets there just in time to
put his kids to bed.
At 35, Mike Steele has been
married to his college sweetheart,
Sandy, for 13 years. They have
two sons ? Derek, 7 and Drew, 4.
It isobviousafter talking with him
for only a few minutes how im-
portant they are and how valu-
able the time they spend together
is.
Being a coach for 15 years has
affected his family life a great deal.
Steele believes quality time is
important, and getting that time is
not always easy. "It gets harder
and harder as the kids get older
he said. "When they were babies,
it was a lot easier
Steele went to Purdue where
he played basketball for four years.
He got interested in coaching when
he worked at summer basketball
camps. At first he worked with
young kids, later he worked with
older kids. He said his coaches
had dramatically affected his life.
Coaching was something he en-
joyed more as he got more in-
volved.
He is a pragmatic man who
takes care of what is going on
today. "Do as well as you can and
worry about what you're doing
today, then things will take care of
themselves he said. When the
team loses he said he feels disap-
pointed, discouraged and de-
pressed. He said: "The kids feel
the same way. You can't dwell on
the past, you've got to move on
His job is to get them back up
when they're down.
Steele said: "The teams that
are good, when they win, don't
celebrate too long. They try to
move on and get better. When you
lose everyone should feel bad
About his job he said: "Every-
pne wants to do what they want to
do. They want to like it, have fun
with it, and then get a big pay-
check to make them happy He
said the administration has made
this a good job and it would be
difficult if he ever decided to leave.
Beginning his third year at
East Carolina, Steele said: "It's
different here because I've always
lived in the midwest. I've met and
made a lot of close friends here
Greenville is the kind of place
Steele believes he would come
back to if he ever left.
Steele's youngest son, Drew,
wasborn with Down's Syndrome.
This summer was the first time
Drew participated in Special
Olympics. Next year he will begin
kindergarten.
Sandy, Steele's wife, is in-
volved in Parents Supporting
Parents. He thinks the support
group has so much heartache and
depression that he could not deal
with it. At the Children's Hospital
there is a feeling of helplessness
that Steele believes is not fair. He
said he struggles when he is
around these children.
Looking back, Steele said:
"Four years ago it was probably
the worst thing that had ever
happened to me. It was a shock
because we didn't know anything
was wrong. He's a true joy to be
around though. He lightens up
the room no matter who he's with,
and he changes things. Every night
when I come home from work its
like he hasn' t seen me for a month.
He has to tell everybody that
daddy's home
Watching Steele talk about his
son brings tears of happiness to
your eyes. Quality time with his
family is important. That is obvi-
ous. "The biggest change with me
is trying to find quiet time with
them he said.
Steele said: "One of the things
about this job is you need to find
ways to get away. It's nice to have
the opportunity to go to the beach.
It's nice just to be with the kids
and go to the movies He thinks it
is good just to get the chance to
have a vacation.
He feels bad when he is on the
road. "With this job you have a lot
of social commitments he said.
So, he tries not to waste any time
when he is with his family. He
said he starts to worry about cer-
tain things as he gets older. He
said: "For me, I never had any
concerns about flying. Now when
1 hear that plane's engine I start
thinking about those little boys
He realizes being a parent is
not easy. There are many involve-
ments, and it takes effort. He also

Financial aid restrictions
cause problems on campus
By CAROLINE CUSICK
Future Editor
What can students do when
the costs of higher education are
too high for their budgets? Apply
for financial aid.
Any student can apply for
financial aid, but most can con-
sider lost forever the hours they
spent filling out computerized
forms, the postage costs and the
application fees they must pay.
Karen Barbee, associate direc-
tor of student financial aid, said,
"Over half of ECU's students
apply for financial aid. Probably
35 percent to 40 percent qualify
for the aid that we administer
Applying for financial aid isn't
as easy as it sounds. Dana Kelly
(not her real name), a sophomore,
nursing major at ECU said: "I had
to go and fill out a very lengthy
application. Basically it's a lot of
wasted time.
"You have to have income
tax, or an estimated income tax
done, and do all this cost figuring
of what you think you're going to
spend and how much you think
you're going to earn. It's not good
basis, as far as I'm concerned,
because you can never really plan
your life like that

To receive financial aid, stu-
dents must fill out a family finan-
cial statement that is processed by
American College Testing in Iowa
City, Iowa.
"American College Testing
performs what is called congres-
sional methodology Barbee said.
"That's the methodology that was
approved by Congress to deter-
mine what the family's ability to
contribute is, based on a standard
formula. That's all American Col-
lege Testing does
Kelly said American College
Testing is efficient in processing
the applications. "They're quick.
The schools are slow.
"You send (the application) in
to ACT and you wait. Then they
send you a letter saying the results
have gone to your school Ac-
cording to Kelly, that takes about
four weeks.
ECU'S financial aid required
Kelly to obtain financial aid tran-
scripts from other universities she
had attended even if she had not
received financial aid while at-
tending there.

Students learn lesson of
law in life's classroom
on Wednesday, Nov. 29, was sur-
prisingly similar to what students
experiece in everyday life at the
university. The courtroom re-
sembled any student's average day
of classes at ECU. In this class-
room of American law, the judge
was the teacher and the students
learned the nuances of one of the
principle branches of government
in the United States.

Last week students involved
in the arrests stemming from the
HalloweenTarRiver incident were
given the chance to experience the
American legal system in its pur-
est form. In the District Court of
Pitt County in the college town of
Greenville, N.C the stage was set.
The scenario in the cou rtroom
If you ask the rock group,
Sidewinder, what's their favorite
place to eat in Greenville, they'll
tell you, "BunnsGrill The band
eats at Bunny's before and after
their concerts, and their auto-
graphed picture hangs in the res-
taurant. During a recent concert at
the Attic, the lead singer told the
audience to "Go eat at Bunny's
After hearing this, I decided
to see what all the fuss was about.
I had a steak and cheese sub and a
chicken fajita delivered to my
room. My boyfriend and I imme-
diately ripped the bag open and
started eating.
The chicken fajita was differ-
ent. It was on pita bread instead of
a tortilla, and I thought it was very
tasty. My boyfriend wouldn'tgive
me a bit of the sub, so I had to
wrestle it away from him. (Did I
mention we were hungry?) Any-
way, it was one of the best subs
I've had in Greenville.
I can't say anything about the
other items because I haven't tried
them. However, Tony Hoomani,
an ECU sophomore, has tried just
about every item, and he seems to
love the place.
Hoomani said, "I eat there just
about every day for lunch and
dinner. If s cheaper and a lot bet-
ter than Menden-Hell Hoomani,
who is an RA in Fletcher, recently
held a social at Bunny's. "Every-
one loved it he said. He added
that the fajitas were great and the
portions fill you up.
Another regular customer is
Greenville resident, Lillian Forbes.
She also praised the food and
commented on the homelike at-
mosphere. "I can come in here and
stay all day if I want to she said.
I went to Bunny's to talk to the
manager, Ed Baker. He said he's
excited about Bunny's growing
popularity and he hopes that ev-
eryone will try the food at least
once. He stressed the quality of
the food and said the restaurant
doesn't use processed foods, only
fresh items.
Baker added that the restau-
rant has many regular customers.
"I know them they walk by that
they're coming in here and I usu-
ally know what they're going to
order he said.
The menu at Bunny's is virtu-
ally an ethnic smorgasbord. They
have traditional American items
like the steak and cheese sub and
the cheeseburger. They also have
the Middle Eastern shawerma (a
steak sand wich on pi ta bread wi th
a sesame sauce), the Mexican f a ji ta,
and Greek baklava. For vegetari-
ans, the restaurant serves falafel, a
vegetable burger.
Bunny's cook, Amar, said the
restaurant has a relaxed atmos-
phere and great food. He said the
meat for the shish-kabob and fajita
is marinated for 24 hours. Amar
and Ed are brothers, and they
mentioned that their mother was
also a wonderful cook.
The restaurant has daily menu
specials and $1.99 pitchers. If
you're on a budget, you can get
99 sandwiches on Monday.
Bunny's Grill is located next
to the Stop Shop, on East 15th
Street. Many different restaurants
have occupied that corner before
Bunny's. "Everyone told us that
this was a bad corner Baker said,
"but business is good and we're
going strong
Bunny's is open from 11 a.m.
to 1 a.m Monday through
Wednesday, and from 11 a.m. to
230 a.m Thursday through Sat-
urday. It offers delivery from 1
p.m. until close, and the phone
number is 830-5126.

Holidays make the editors up
here nervous. They're afraid I'm
gonna do something wigged out,
like I did for Fourth of July, when
I slammed organized religion up
one wall and down the other.
And since Christmas is THE
religious holiday, you could al-
most feel the frantic tension in the
office when I came up to write this
column. Foreboding background
music, such as found in cheaply-
made horror films, filled the of-
fice.
And when 1 announced my
intention to write about the true
meaning of Christmas, three edi-
tors, two layout artists and that
damn partridge in the pear tree
had seizures and had to be taken
to the trauma center. Understand-
able reactions, given my reputa-
tion.
But I'm feeling pensive.
Nostalgic. Almost, dare I say it ?
poignant. I don't feel like slam-
ming anybody. Not even bad
poetry writers.
After the semester from hell,
I'm too worn out to slam people. I
want to be nice. Perhaps I've seen
"Scrooged" too many times. Per-
haps I've lost the cutting edge that
I built my fame on.
Maybe I just have that elusive
and undefinable Christmas Spirit.
So I'm not real worried. I'll be
back.
But just what is this feeling of
niceness? Can I attribute it to the
season? Or is it some dark part of
my personality I've tried to su-
press? Naahhh.
Every Christmas, I do feel
nicer. I'm not particularly chari-
table. I don't go out of my way to
buy people presents. On my sal-
ary, they're lucky if I can afford to
mention them in my columns.
Buteverybodycarriesaiound
a ton of emotional Samsonite at
the holidays, and writers moreso
than others. Memories seem
sharper, possibilities seem end-
less and depression seems more
acute. Every action and word is
charged up.
Psychologically, if s easy to
attribute this undercurrent of
excitement to modem society's
endless media bombardment. No
matter where you go, red and
green attack your eyes and carols
assault your ears.
If s like being caught by a tin-
sel explosion in the middle of a
retail war zone, and sappy songs
are more potent weapons than
nerve gas. But I love it.
All the tackiness, thecommer-
cialism, the vain attempts to re-
turn Christmas to its true mean-
ing, which everyone seems to think
is the Homecoming episode of
-The Waltons the attempts to
bring religion back into it I love
it. Humans are so naive some-
times, and if j touching in a way.
People, this is it. This is the
true meaning of Christmas. In a
merchandised society like ours,
this is the ultimate end of a holi-
day geared towards giving.
In a society geared toward
cheap sentiment, this is the ulti-
mate expression of our Hallmark
lives. In a society geared toward
religious dogma, this is one of our
few chances to hope for the future.
Christmas, whatever it may
have been in the past, is now this.
Commercial, cheap, symbolic,
religious, stressful, happy if s
everything our everyday life is,
only intensified.
Abstract concepts like giving

ety actualizes them. It may not be
the most tasteful method possible,
but you gotta love it anyway.
And it's also magic. How?
Lemme tell you. All the old people
are gone now, so no one really
remembers this up here at the East
Carolinian. But I do.

AIDS becomes more prevalent
By MARY BETH HUGHES
Special loThe Em Carolinian
"I'm not too worried about
AIDS, I still go out with my bud-
dies to try and get girls. Most guvs
do Those are the words of a 20-
year-old ECU sophomore.
That kind of thinking is a
major concern of the American
College Health Association. The
ACHA has recently completed the
second year of a five year study of
AIDS on the college campus. In
their survey, the ACHA found that
1 in 500 students on the studied
campuses were HIV positive.
Dr. Richard P. Keeling, direc-
tor of student health services at
the University of Virginia and
president of the ACHA, was the
principal investigator for the
study. He said that the survey
results "establish bevond any
doubt that HIV infection is a cur-
rent problem on college campuses.
In fact, the .2 percent rate of infec-
tion is somewhat higher than what
we had hypothesized at the outset
of the study
Dr. 1 lelen Gayle, the national
center tor disease control's epidi-
miologist responsible for the sur-
vey, said: "This study bolsters the
need for more aggressive efforts
to prevent the spread of HIV on
college campuses. These students
will be important disseminators
of information to their communi-
ties, and what they learn in college
Americans change their
views on the Soviet Union
By AMBER WILSON
Special to Th I ail Carolinian
The recent economic, social
and political changes occurring
inside the Soviet Union and in
Eastern Europe have changed
Americans's opinions of the S.
ets. Although still skeptical, sus-
picions among Americans have
been altered drastically towards
the Soviets, due to dramatic re-
forms in communist countries.
After the shipboard summit
off the coast of Malta between
President Bush and Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev, the American
people have renewed hope in
world peace, harmony, and free-
dom for all.
"Gorbachev has taken domes-
tic and external steps that far ex-
ceed what Westerners thought
possible, even 6 months ago said
Frofessor Maurice Simons, direc-
tor of international studiesat ECU.
Simon explained how imperative
it is for Soviets to seek reforms due
to internal needs.
"Gorbachev has restructured
foreign policy in a way that it will
be a more constructed actor on an
international level explained
Simon. He feels Americans's
changing attitudes are due to
Gorbachev's open willingness to
change government policies and
the Bush administration'sdeliber-
ate and positive approach to the
Soviet's initiative.
Simon feels confident the
social, economic, political and
military goals envisioned by Gor-
bachev will be achieved eventu-
ally. "It will take more than a
decade, a generation, or possibly
even a half century. During that
period, he may be replaced but I
doubt there will be a return to
government policies of
Gorbachev's predecessors
Simon also believes the days
of communism are coming to an
end as individual countries in the
Soviet bloc begin to gain more
control and independence. "1
would like to see a pluralistic and
a more democratic Soviet Union
and Eastern Europe composed of
individual stable nation states.
Bodo Nischan, a history pro-
fessor at ECU, also believes rela-
tions between the US and the
Soviet Union are improving due
to Gorbachev's openness to
change. "After Malta, the 'Cold
War' is finally over. The 'Age of
Superpowers' is also over for
now Dr. Nischan said.
According to Nischan, many
Americans question Soviets's re-
liability. Nischan states, "The
Soviets are as reliable as the
Americans. After all, we are all
human with faults
Nischan is originally from
Germany and travels to Europe
on occasion. He said Americans
should be confident and proud of
the changes that have taken place.
"It is a victory of the American
human spirit?to have Eastern
Europe and the Soviet Union take
values that the US has vindicated
for years
Lawrence Hough, a political
science Professor at ECU, is suspi-
cious, yet hopeful of Gorbachev's
intentions. Hebelieves Gorbachev
has improved life for citizens and
has opened up, but is unsure if the
recent summit meeting accom-
plished anything. "I'm not hold-
ing my breath just yet he said.
Hough said, "Soviet's project an
image of being reliable, but there
is so much suspicion in the United
States. It is difficult to know after
40 yearsof mistrust?peopledon't
expect changes
Even though there is much
suspicion, ECU students also are
optimistic. "Soviet willingness to
cooperate with significant reforms
in Eastern European countries
have shown a dramatic change
from prior policies in Soviet doc-
trine said Locke Monroe, a sen-
ior at ECl . He believes
Americans's positive view and
support will encourage Soviet
reforms
Americans views are chang-
ing towards the Soviet Union.
Americans are beginning to trust
the Soviet people and are optimis-
tic about American and Soviet
relations. There is a high regard
for Gorbachev's dramatic reforms
and openness. The recent summit
hasrenewed Americans's hope for
goodwill, peace, and freedom for
all.
will follow them for the rest of
their lives
An ECU junior said: "1 don't
think about getting AIDS. I have
been in a relationship for the past
couple of years. If my boyfriend
and I ever split up, I guess I'd start
to think about it more often
Another ECU student said, "It
scares me to death. Some of the
girls I know still sleep around a
lot. Usually when they've had too
much to drink and they probably
don't always use protection. I just
keep thinking, it only takes one
time I don't think sex with a
stranger is worth dying for
To continue their studv, the
ACHA plans to survey the knowl-
edge, attitudes and behavior of
college students in relation to the
AIDS virus. The first part of the
study evaluated only the number
of positive AIDS cases.
The ACHA's continuing
study will include the 19 universi-
ties already in the program and
they hope to add several new in-
stitutions. They would like to
study a historically black institu-
tion and an institution with a pre-
dominantly Hispanic student
population. The only southern
school that participated in the
ACHA's study was the Univer-
sity of Georgia at Athens.
Many ECU students want to
know why ECU does not keep
statistical information related to
the AIDSonthiscampus. One male
student said: "My friends that go
to the other big North Carolina
schools know what the percent-
ages are for AIDS on their cam-
puses. We should too
Pitt County holds the onlv
statistical data on AIDS in the area.
but the health department official
responsible for AIDS information
was unavailable for comment
about the specific number of cases
in Pitt County.
According to the Department
of Health and Human Services and
the National Center for Disease
Control, 109,344 cases of AIDS
were reported in the United States
as of October 31, 1989. Of those
cases, 1,822 were among children
less than 13 years old.
An AIDS Hotline supervisor
said, "The figure from the CDC is
approximately 3,000 people short
of the actual figure He encour-
ages students to spread the word
on college campuses: "AIDS is out
there; it will kill you and vou can
do something to prevent yourself
from being the next victim. Know
all that you can about the disease
and use safe sex
To help educate students at
ECU, an AIDS Awareness Week
was held Nov. 13-17. According
to Susan Kellerman, ECU'S Health
Educator, the main purpose of the
week was to provide AIDS infor-
mation and make students aware
that their own behavior is causing
the risk.
The Student Health Center
continues to offer information and
has a video presentation that stu-
dents are able to view upon re-
quest at the center. ECU Iocs not
have an AIDS testing facility on
campus but does offer a referral
service to any one desiring a HIV
blood screening.
For further information about
AIDS,call the ECU Student Health
Service, The American College
Health Association or the National
AIDS Hotline (800) 342-2437.

cially assists many students.
However, the current require-
ments tor obtaining financial aid
are shitting the government's role
to the students and parents At the
same time, the cost ol education is
nsmg faster than the nation's in-
flation rate.
I he new formula is hojx-d to
be more successful than those of
the past. During the Reagan ad-
ministration, attempts to remedy
the problems ol the federal stu-
dent loan program included track-
ing down thousands ol former
-tudents who had not paid back
their loans
In a I985 issue, lime maga
zinereported, "I efaulted student
loans add up to S4.5 billion. Al-
most Id percent ot all student
borrowers become bad debtors
Atter trying to collect through
private agencies, the Education
Department called in the ustice
I department to help
Barbee said: "I'm sure there
are students who have legitimate
financial needs we are unable to
meet This is like any other large
program. It's bureaucratic.
rhe system is not perfect and
it never is going to be when they're
trv ing to assist as niav students as
areassisted throughout the United
States through financial aid
The problems of EC I s (man-
ual aid office are numerous. i"he
office has employment positions
unfilled. Stacks of pa per and forms
abound. And, due to federal regu-
lations, Barber said that the struc-
ture is so rigid than except ions can
not be made lor individuals with
special financial needs.
Kellv said she sees the prob-
lems of ECl s Department of
Financial Aid as a lack of interest.
She said "I made an appointment
and came up hero from Wilming-
ton, NC, to talk with somebody. It
took them about five minutes to
talk to me and toll mo what thev
could have told me over the phone.
Basically, thev didn't want to talk
to me
Although the financial aid
office helps several students at
111, it can't help everyone who
needs financial assistance. Because
of federal budget cuts, the finan-
cial aid provided tor students will
probable decrease in the future as
COStS of attendance steadily in-
creases
What can students do when
the costs of higher education are
too high for their budgets7 Apply
for financial aid and pray.

180 Proof to play farewell show
By DEANNA NEVGLOSKI
Tonight, 180 Proof will be
pumping it up tor their farewell
show at CTRockefeller's.
Membership tags are Mike
Little on lead vocals, MarkPomer-
ans on lead guitar, Chad
Richardson on bass and Berrv
Oliver on drums.
The band consists of three
ECU studentsandoneECU gradu-
ate. For tour years, ISO Proof has
been bringing their own breed of
rock-n-roll to most of the clubs in
Greenville and select fraternity
parties
Best known for their live
shows. ISO Proof will rock the
house with some originals, and
plenty of cover tunes from bands
such as Ratt, Guns-n-Roses, 12,
Van Halen, Led Zep and the
Stones.
180 Proof is a band that be-
lieves in entertaining the crowd
with a wide-variety of music.
Pomeransexplained that 180 Proof
avoids being a progressive band
and is not stuck in the 60s and 70s
like mostregional bands. 1 lestated

it on. We hung a banner up that
said "Merry P Christmas
and everybody signed it.
When it was almost done, I
looked at the people working on
the tree. A bunch of people who
like each other some of the time,
had reallv gotten together and
made something. 1 teared up, but
nobody saw me.
Well, the rest of the night was
pretty stressful as usual, but for a
brief, shining moment well,
something made me cry And 1

week's column. And till next
semester, may the hangovers be
gentle, but the buzzes intense.
that its important to give the audi-
ence a "little bit of everything
Another important founda-
tion that 180 Proof builds on is the
audienceband interaction. Pom-
erans emphasized that it is impor-
tant to communicate with the
crowd. "We feel like we're doing
our job if the crowd is going wild
he said.
As for future plans, 180 Proof
has lots ot them, but only time will
tell if they continue to keep rockin'
in the band Pomerans said that
there will be an inevitable separa-
tion as they each plan for their
futures.
Pomerans, a business major,
will be attending a pilot training
school for the United States Air
Force in the summer. Oliver, a
senior majoring in Leisure Sys-
tems Studies, will be graduating
in May after he completes an in-
ternship at Hilton Head, S.C. Little,
a voice major, will be graduating
this semester after he completes
his minor in business. Richardson,
who graduated from ECU in May
with a Psychology degree, is cur-
rently working at the Vincent and
Ward Law Firm in Greenville.
Next year he will attend law
school.
Pomerans said he would like
to continue performing with the
band. He also said he could never
play for another band because of
the "special magic" he has found
in 180 Proof. He went on to say
that 180 Proof is like a family to
him, and that it would be difficult
to find that kind of chemistry with
anv other musicians.
Pomerans, a graduate from
guitar university GIT in Los An-
geles, said that the members of
180 Proof always keep the possi-
bility of going out to try their luck
on the over-populated club circuit
in Los Angeles.
180 Proof has come a long way
Court
since their first gig at an Air Force
ROTC military ball. Their live
show is filled with plenty of rock-
n-roll.
This is 180 Proof's farewell
show. However, there is a chance
that the band will return to play a
few shows next semester.
180 Proof will be playing to-
gether during the summer, includ-
ing plans for a possible four-song
demo of originals. Their last demo
was not marketed, but it has been
sent to various record companies.
Their original song, "Rape My
Buzz which is a huge crowd
pleaser, is getting local radio air-
play in North Carolina.
If you're in the mood for some
down-to-earth rock-n-roll, 180
Proof is the band to see. And like
Pomerans said, "We really care
about the people who come to see
us, and we always give 100 per-
cent so everyone can have a killer
time

In the classroom of American
law students reacted comparably
to how they act everyday when
they go to class. Some were bored
with the action the courtroom
ottered, while others found inter-
est in the law and exactly what
was to become of them. Others
still, were doing what almost every
student inevitably does at least
once in their college career, they
were napping ?-? just catching a few
Z's. One student was even listen-
ing to a walkman.
The lawyers for WNCT-TV
and the district attorney's office
also seemed to relate to w hat often
happens at the university. They
resembled guest speakers in an
open campus forum, debating on
the obscure facets of media law
and the availability of evidence
used tor the state.
Rustling and low whispers
were not an uncommon event
when things seemed to drag on.
But you could hear a pin drop
when information pertaining to
students surfaced.
At court last week, students
nxeivveUheir tirst glimpse of lav
in CMNWeille, and many offered
comments on what they experi-
enced .
Student John Hand related
how he felt about his first court
experience. "Honestly, 1 thought
it was interesting to see how eve-
rything worked Hand said, "but
lust sitting there all day wasn't
much fun Hand said he was
interested mainly because he even-
tually plans to become a corporate
lawyer. le said he wonders how
a conviction will affect his chances
at being accepted to a credible law
school.
Student Adelle Goournan was
upset with what transpired in
court and said, "1 took a whole
day off work just to sit in that
courtroom. They had a whole
month to look at the evidence on
the videotapes
Student Ryland Walters
said Having it in traffic court was
ridiculous. They should have had
ourcasesinaseparatecourtroom
Walters expressed mixed feel-
ings on how the law was carried
out in the courtroom. "1 thought
the judge had his stuff together.
The lawver for WNCT-TV and the
lawyers for the district attorney's
office weren't that prepared
Walters also conveyed con-
cern for the tirnespent in the court -
?Toom and the effect the time has
on evervdav events in student's
lives. "Wednesday is my hardest
day of classes he stated. He also
cited upcoming exams and missed
work as other concerns students
involved in the Halloween inci-
dent will face.
Joe Herman, a father of a stu-
dent arrested Halloween night,
came from Chapel Hill to attend
the trials. Herman was upset with
the way the trial was handled and
said, "All today shows is that the
state does not have enough evi-
dence to prosecute. They're say-
ing 'if someone could supply us
with the right pictures then we
would know if we arrested the
right people
As the day came to a close in
the courtroom, the judge told the
students that because of the me-
dia-related aspects of the case, all
the cases involving the arrests on
Halloween would have to appear
once again on January 8 through
January 10.

Sophomore student Chris

feelings about this when he said,

they should do, the stolid judge

Pirate Comics, Its Been Real
By Parker
Staff Monomial
Warning: this is a subjective, self-indulgent little column by the Staff Illustrator
Comics Editor, that serves no purpose but its own. Don't be surjtrised by this, as it used to be a
fairly common occurence a year ago, often accompanied by pictures of the artist. You don't have
to read it, of course.
This is about sad. I've been in this position for so long, 1 don't think I can function in outside
society anymore. Finally, 1 must pass the baton ol the Comics Page (capitalize it always, you) to another,
and risk losing my identity. I'd like to use this, brief space to trv and re-cap my career at the paper and
thank some people I met on the way.
My break at getting on the comics page came when friend Dan Maurcr, who lived across the hall
at A work and happened to be the Feature. Editor, a-ked me to do a strip. Befuddled, I went back to my
? and the first thing I scribbled were two cats in trenchcoats and sunglasses, lo and behold were
horn? The Undercover Cats.
At first Dan and his roommate Rob Mazzoli assisted me with plotting and inking, and we had
some fun At the time Alan Guv had just given up the Illustrator position and the legendary Shelton
Bryant took over. Alan was doin' Walkiri the Flank, Shelton had Sneed, and I had those darn cats.
It was about this time that I first met someone I was destined to collaborate with, possibly
forever, writer Micah Harris. My interest in comk books came roaring back, and Micah and 1 have spent
the past few vears taking a stab at every genre that can go into comic form, and getting rejected by
pubiibhers. ConfidentiaUv, I think we're gonna make it in 1990.

Finally Shelton moved on, and I inherited the page. What youthful fun. I have to admit, I got
away with murder, plastering my face everywhere, drawing scantily-clad females, Kill Danny Partrtidge
contests, miffing cartoonists, being cheesy?the good ol' days. After getting all that out of mv system, 1 got
around to doing rewarding things, like having regular cartoonists meetings.
That's probably the best part, the team "fee of the page. With all these old-timers, like Steve,
Rik, (and not to forget the graduated Paul Fnedrich who has a compilation of his Overkill strips out now)
and Richard, 1 feel the page is in good hands, especially under the guidance of new Staff Illustrator Steve
Reid. This cartoon crew is doing very well, and be warned, Steve won't stand for any slacking up, you. And
meetings are now monthly and mandatory like the one at 530 today), heh-heh.
Let me close by thanking my staff and all of the East Carolinian staff, who have been the best

Charlotte leads hunt
Carolinas to examine
possible NFL sites
THE EAST CAROLINIAN
By RICK SCOPPE
Thl A.tof iatrd PlM?
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) ?
While it will be at least late next
year before the NFL announces its
expansion plans, North Carolina
and South Carolina will find out
next week where a stadium will
be built if the states actually land a
professional team.
Four sites are being consid-
ered for the 65,000-seat stadium
? three in North Carolina and
one in South Carolina. The sites
are: downtown Charlotte; York
County near Carowinds; near the
Charlotte Motor Speedway; and
an area between Gastonia and
Kings Mountain in Gaston
County, said Mark Richardson,
who is working with his father,
Jerry, to bring a National Football
League team to the Carolinas.
Several factors are being con-
sidered in the choice of a site, in-
cluding how easy it will be for
fans to drive in and out of the
stadium, Richardson said.
"It's an area that people can
become disenchanted with
Richardson said. "If they become
disenchanted, they may not be
willing to stick with the franchise
until you become a winner
Richardson said the soil and
rock structure also have been
examined at the sites to make sure
the land can handle the weight of
a stadium. Economic concerns also
have been considered, as well as
which site might be the best for
the most fans.
"We've tried to assess what is
best for the fans' convenience he
said. "Not fans in anv one area,
but fans across the Carolinas as a
whole
Richardson said the Caroli-
nas may find out in late 1990
whether the NFL will locatea fran-
chise in either state.
"From what we hear, there's a
good chance there's going to be
anewcollectivebargainingagTee-
mentnegohatedinthenextcouple
months, which means the NFL can
probably can get around to ex-
pansion in the spn ng of next year
he said.
"Iftheycanhitthat timetable,
it would probably take them six to
nine months to determine who
the first expansion markets are tha t
they would take in, which would
mean this time next year ? late
1990 ? we should find out
whether we're going to be taken
in the first wave of expansion.
"That's our timetable. That's not
the timetablesetby the NFL,cause
they haven't set theirs he said
"But that's the timetable we think
that they're operating under
If the Carolinas get an NFL
franchise in 1990, Richardson said
the team probably would begin
playing in 1992. Richardson, who
lives in Charlotte, spoke at a hast-
ily called news conference after
talking to a sports marketing class
at the Universitv of South
Carolina's Department of Sports
Administration. Richardson has
been working full time with his
father, a Spartanburg husiness-
man, to bring an NFL team to
Carolinas. Although it will be at
least a year before the NFL an-
nounces its expansion plans,
Richardson said it was important
for the Carolinas to announce the
site of its stadium on Dec. 15. "We
can only do so much design on i
facility before we've got a site se-
lected' he said. "We can't do the
specific designs of the faciltv until
we can get site specific
The Richard sons have been
looking for a suitable site for 2 1
2 years.
"It's time for us to get this
decision behind us so that we can
move on and concentrate our ef-
forts and our time and our re-
sources in other areas he said.

in the works for an NFL exhibition
game at Williams-Bnce Stadium

between the New York Jets and
Philadelphia Eaglesdrewa crowd
of 52,855 at the 45,000-seat Carter-
FinlevStadium in Raleieh, on Auc
20. W
Richardson said the success
of that game has helped the Caro-
linas not only in their campaign
for an NFL franchise but in efforts
to land a second exhibition game.
"We've had contact with sev-
eral different teams. Nothing is

had eight games offered to us al-

The 1980s: a
decade of
change in the
sports world
By HAL BROCK
1 hr ViftOiiafrd Prrst
Sports in the 1980s supplied
abundance and achievement bal-
anced bv division and despair, a
10-year roller coaster ride through
the peaks and valleys of human
emotion. It was a decade that
changed the face of athletics from
front office to field with an eco-
nomic and performance revolu-
tion that left a distinct and perma-
nent imprint.
?It was Mike Tyson, devas-
tating boxing's heavyweight divi-
sion with fire in his eves and rage
in his lists, and Sugar Ray Le-
onard, cutting through layers of
ring rust to stage an electrifying
middleweight comeback.
?It was Magic Johnson and
the Los Angeles Lakers, winning
five championships and playing
for the title three other times to
establish a standard ot continuing
excellence rarely achieved in the
NBA.
?It was Joe Montana and the
San Francisco49ers, claiming three1
Super Bowl titles
? It was Wayne C.retzkv, a
superman on skates, raising
hockey to a level rarely reached
before he came along, and Nolan
Ryan, who began the decade strik-
ing batters out with 90-plus mph

the Treasury Department to get
broadcasting clearance.
ABC, in a lawsuit filed Mon-
day in IS Pistru t Court in Man-
hattan, says the Treasury Depart-
ment is blocking the broadcasts
and that the government's actions
"violate rights secured to ABCand
the public bv the First Amend-
ment" and "constitute an unlaw-
ful prior restamt on spec h and
related activities
ABC agreed earlier this year
to pay the l uban Tan American
Games Organizing Committee
$8,741,250 tor the L S television
rights to the competition, sched-
uled Aug. 2-18, 1991 at Havana
Under the Trading with the I n
emv Act and the Cuban Assets
Control Regulations, U.S. compa
nies and citizens must apply tor a
license to do business with Cuba
According to Barry Frank ot
Trans World International, the
television consultant tor the Fan
American Sports Organization, the
Treasury Department denied the
license application last Fndav.hut
told ABC that it could purchase
anci air videotapes of the games as
opposed to live coverage.
Frank and ABC said R. Rich-
ard Newcomb, director of theot-
ficeof foreign assets control of the
Treasury Department, was the
official who made the decision.
Newcomb did not return tele-
phone calls Monday and Larry
Batdorf, a treasury spokesman,
said. "We decline any comment at
Ihis time because the matter is in
litigation
In .i letter included in the suit,
filed in U.S. District Court in
Manhattan, Newcomb told ABC
tti.it "because this transaction
would result in a very substantial
pavment to Cuba, it is contrary to
the current foreign policy of the
i Inited States government toward
Cuba "
According to Frank, the U.S.
government said ABC could not
pav the money directly to Cuba,
but would have to place it in a
blocked account that would be
released to the Cubans when rela-
tions between the United State
and Cuba normalize.
"That could be tomorrow oi
never Frank said, "and the Cu-
bans were unwilling to accept
that
"These games will take place
with or without ABC he said.
"The monevtheCubans are spend-
ing is tar in excess of what ABC is
paying. They're building new
facilities and hotels and they're
spending well in excess of $300
million.
"It would be a pitv if the U.S.
team were permitted to go and
Americans wouldn't be able to see
it Frank said. "It would be a
violation of First Amendment
rights
Stephen . Solomon, senior
vice president ot ABC Sports, said
the Omnibus I radeand Competi-
tiveness Act of 1988 allowed the
purchase of informational materi-
als from Cuba. He said the "artifi-
cial distinction" between a live
broadcast and videotape "just does
not make sense to us
