Daytona offers students 'classic' Spring Break activities
By Jason Williams
Staff Writer
What do a Playboy basket-
ball tournament, an international
beauty pageant and MTV have in
common? AH of them, along with
tens of thousands of college stu-
dents from around the nation, wi 11
be in Daytona Beach, Florida next
week during Spring Break.
Destination Daytona the
Convention and Visitors Bureau
and the Chamber of Commerce of
Daytona Beach have organized
about two months of activities
designed to lure college students
south to the sunshine state to party.
Spring break in Daytona be-
gan in mid-February with the ear-
liest visitors being Canadian stu-
dents. According to long-time
Daytona resident Marvin Moore,
"There was a whole pile of Cana-
dians that came down, about
20,000 of them, right after the race.
The local news said that they have
an early spring break
Many of of the city's largest
hotels began their Spring Break
activities on Feb. 15 and will con-
tinue through April 11. Events at
these locations include volleyball
tournaments, parasail rides and
live entertainment.
One of the more popular
annual events is the Miss Hawai-
ian Tropic International Beauty
Pageant to be held March 12 at the
Howard Johnson Hotel. Publicist
David C. Rizzo said, "Over con-
testants will compete for more than
$100,000 in cash and prizes
Celebrity judges for the Pag-
eant include Donald Tru mp, Robin
Leach, Jim Kelly and Wolfman
Jack. The festivities will be filmed
for a syndicated television special
to air later this year.
Rizzo reports that proceeds
from the pageant will benefit the
American Cancer Society and the
Mkomazi Game Reserve in Tan-
zania, Africa.
Another event to be held
during the upcoming week is the
Playboy Spring Break Basketball
Tournament. This annual event
features three person teamsof col-
lege students from universities
across the country.
MTV returns once again for
spring break at Daytona to broad-
cast live from what some consider
to be the world's most famous
beach. The network, which popu-
larized Daytona as a spring break
destination, will hold events at
the Bandshell March 10-17.
The Jackie Robinson
Ballpark will host a month long
College Basketball Jamboree fea-
turing teams from top conferences.
Florida, West Virginia and Illinois
are among the schools scheduled
to compete.
Later in the month leading
manufacturers of car stereos and
sound systems will exhibit their
latest technologies at the Spring
Break Nationals at the Ocean Cen-
ter. Rizzo describes the event as a
"hands-on format where partici-
pants can sit in their cars and ex-
perience the advancements
Those planning to go to
Daytona should plan to pack a
coat or jacket and other warm
clothing. Overcast skies and tem-
peratures in the low 50s greeted
unsuspecting tourists dressed for
warm weather last year.
"It's been cold down here so
far Moore said. "We've had
northeasters, and northwesters,
and all kinds of crazy winds. We've
only had about three pretty days
sincewe've been down this year
In addition to the large
crowds and mass entertainment
offered along "The Strip the
Daytona area hasa fewquietplaces
only a short drive away. Ormond
Beach to the north is a much more
secluded area, and Ponce Inlet to
the south has a quaint brick light-
house and a few good fishing spots
as well.
Photo courtasy Destination Daytona!
The Miss Hawaiian Tropic International Beauty Pageant is one of the many activities planned for Daytona
Beach during Spring Break 1993.
Michael Boswell, an ECU
junior who went to Daytona last
year, shared his thoughts about
the experience.
"It was colder than I thought
it would be, and there weren't as
many people there because it was
cold
"Also, the seafood wasn't as
good as North Carolina's. In fact,
one of my friends ate some bad
fish the last night we were there.
He was so sick the next day, he
must have used every bathroom
in Disney World Boswell said.
Alternative getaway found in Lake Placid
By Joe Horst
Staff Writer
You hear the shussssh under your
feet as your body leans into the turn. You
can smell the pine and fir trees as you
speed past them, gathering momentum
with each passing second. The cold air
bites at your cheeks and nose, but it
doesn't detract from the grin planted
firmly on your face.
Sound like fun? Sound like some-
thing you'd want to do in the winter,
knowing that a warm fire awaits you at
the lodge below? Well, wax those skis,
pull on that parka and don those ski
goggles, because Spring Break in Lake
Placid, N.Y has begun.
Many students see Spring Break as
fun in the sun in Florida or some other
sun-drenched, beach-as-far-as-the-eye-
can-see state. What many fail to realize is
that more options are available than the
beach, and that some are considerably
cheaper than Daytona or Fort Lauder-
dale.
Lake Placid rests among the
Adirondack Mountains, roughly five
hours north of New York City. Lake
Placid's biggest offering to skiers is the
greatest vertical drop in the East (3,216
ft.), or more commonly known as White-
face Mountain. Skiers can choose from 65
trailson the mountain,28percentof which
are expert, 37 percent intermediate and 35
percent beginner. Students can get lift
passes and lessons starting at $46 for one
day and going as high up as $211 for five
days out of a week.
Skiing is not the only winter sport
that students can partakeofwhen at Lake
Placid.Visitorscantakearideinwhathas
been called the "Champagneof Thrills a
bobsled ride on America's only Olympic
bobsled run. Professional drivers and
brakemen carry participants on a ride
that only costs $25 per person.
Students can also strap on a helmet,
lie on their back and take a hair-raising
trip on the Olympic luge run in Lake
Placid. Piloting their own sled, people
will slide through the final five turns,
including the famous Omega turn. Rides
cost $10 per person.
Ice skating, dog bled rides, sleigh
ridesandsnowmobiling combine to make
up the rest of winter fun at Lake Placid.
Prices are as follows: dog sled � $5 per
person; snowmobiling � $30-40 per per-
son, an hour at some places; ice skating�
$5 adults, $3 children (rentals $3-6).
In Lake Placid and adjacent areas,
lodging abounds for the expensive and
inexpensive minded alike. �
Prices range from $40-180 fornightly
rates on weekends and holidays; $30-125
for nightly rates midweek. Bed and Break-
fasts are also available for people inter-
ested in a first-hand look at northern
lifestyles.
Bars stay open until 4 a.m. in Lake
Placid and the adjoining towns. For those
under 21, the Canadian border is a hop,
skip and a jump away at45 minutes north
ofLake Placid. The legal Canadian drink-
ing age is 18 years.
Lake Placid serves as a very viable
skiing alternative to Vail or Aspen. Defi-
nitely a tourist spot, the town still retains
enough of a rustic atmosphere to be com-
fortable for visitors. Dubbed the "1 re-
sort in North America for alternative ac-
tivities" by Snow County Magazine, Lake
Placid offers a little something for every-
body.

Placid Visitors Bureau at (518) 523-2445.

Clinton unveils new college plan
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J.(AP)
�President Clinton unveiled Mon-
day a pilot version of his plan to
allow students to pay for college
with national service,sayingitwould
"make higher education available to
more people in return for the service
they give to their community"
Clinton discussed the broad
outlines of the program during a
tour of the New Brunswick Public
Schools Adult Learning Center in
New Jersey,before heading tonearby
Rutgers University for the formal
announcement.
Thepresidentsaid hisprogram
would allow students either to pay
off college loans with public service
or to do the service first and accrue
credits to attend college later. Bor-
rowers who did not want to do ser-
vice work would pay a percentage of
their income back into the loan fund.
By setting the repayment at a
percentage of income instead of a set
amount, Clinton said he hoped to
encourage graduates to take lower-
paying public service positions such
as in police and community health
work.
He linked die program to his
overall economic package, saying "an
economic investment is not justbuild-
ing an ai rport or a road or investing in
new technology, it isalsoinvesting in
people
Clinton's plan would get off to
a modest start thissummer with 1,000
or so summer community service
positions and then grow over the
next five years to more than 100,000
slots.
After the Rutgers speech,
Clinton planned to promote the pro-
gram in an interview for an MTV
special to air tonight Vice President
Al Gore, Tipper Gore and three
Clinton Cabinet members were stag-
ing events to promote the national
service plan, as well.

Optional tours of Cancun are
also available to students. Suntour
Isla Mujeres is a popular half day
tour. For $47, students can cruise
to an island away from Cancun for
several hours of snorkeling, swim-
ming and fun. Humphrey added
that the price of this day cruise
includes the cost of drinks.
A full day tour called
Chichen Itza is available for $62.
The tour includes an archaeologi-
cal site, pyramids, a sacrificial well,
the temple of warriors and other
historical sites. A continental
breakfast, lunch and open bar are
included.
For students who choose not
to participate in these activities,
Cancun is still a fun place for stu-
dents to go for Spring Break.

Wiretapping scandal
appears to have no
end in sight
Administration must take
hard-line stance before
irreparable damage is done
ECU cannot seem to get itsen' out from under the
black cloud of the wiretapping scandal. It doesn't
look like any silver lining will appear soon, either.
Former Director of Public Safety James DePuy
has recently been sued by both Patricia Hair Bullock,
the secretary whose line was tapped, and John Burrus,
who has requested a third-party suit against DePuy.
Burrus has also filed this suit against Richard Brown,
vice-chancellor of business affairs for ECU, and East
Carolina University itself.
This suit has long-reaching and potentially dam-
aging effects for this university and its image. If
Burrus is awarded this settlement, the repercussions
may reach as far and as high as the chancellor's office.
It must make one wonder as to how far knowledge of
this crime went; was it the act of just a few individu-
als or a combined effort of the top echelon of ECU's
administration?
A disturbing fact that has arisen in both of these
cases is the legal representation accorded to the two
separate parties. Special Deputy to the Attorney Gen-
i eral Tom Zeiko will be representing DePuy, while
Burrus is being represented by local attorneys Myron
1 T. Hill Jr. and W. Gregory Duke.
Thequestion wg that needs to be asked
h
is why the w state would
choose to - represent
DePuy and not Burrus and Teddy Roberson. Zeiko
has said that the Attorney General's office is repre-
senting DePuy because the alleged actions were com-
mitted during DePuy's tenure as a state employee.
Doesn't that apply to Burrus and Roberson also? All
three were employed by the university at the time, so
all three would have committed these acts "in the
scope of their employment as Zeiko has quoted.
This apparent double standard only serves to
add to the mass of confusion that plagues this inci-
dent. So much mud has been flung around since the
onset of the criminal trial that it takes two or three
people to make sense out of one piece of testimony.
Something needs to be done to clear up this fiasco so
that the university can clear its tarnished name.
The East Carolinian calls for Chancellor Eakin to
take the first step. Bring in a commission of outside
individuals to investigate this matter and discover
the whole truth, even if it reflects badly on some
members of the administration. Find out who was
responsible, what they did and how the university
can make amends. Settling out of court does not, and
will not, solve this problem; that back-pedaling only
goes in one direction � further down.
If this investigation brings to light that there
were any other administrators involved in the wire-
tapping, ask for their resignation. Clean out the dead
wood that plagues this university so that the tar-
nished image we now have can begin to be cleaned.
Open disclosure is the key to unlocking this weight
that drags down everyone's shoulders that is affili-
ated with ECU.

Lifestyle has little impact on fighting ability
As President Clinton's poli-
cies regarding homosexuals in the
military continues to feed the flames
of controversy, the question of mo-
rality , for me, seems distant and
unimportant.
I hadn't really thought about
it until last week when the
dinnertime topic turned to gays in
the military, a difficult topic when a
body is trying to consume a hot dog.
The person I was speaking
with is someone very special to me
and has had a bad experience with
homosexuals, one that left him or
her feeling very insecure and con-
fused. Therefore, they havea learned
hatred of all homosexuals and an
understandable,althoughvery nar-
row, view of gays.
This person feels very strongly
that gays should never be allowed
to serve their country, and unless
I'm interpreting incorrectly, ostra-
cized from society altogether. Many
people in the military seem toagree
with this viewpoint, as well as le-
gions of civilians. The perplexing
question in all of this is "Why?"
I fail to see what the real prob-
lem is. Certainly there would be
problems to overcome, bu t very few
of these would likely be caused by
the homosexuals themselves. The
main problem facing the military is
not the quality of performance of a
gay soldier or how he or she wou Id
act around others, but how hetero-
sexual soldiers would cope with
having gays in their midst.
The point is well illustrated
by the courageous soldiers who
have publicly announced their ho-
mosexuality. These men have
served, in some cases, years with
exemplary records without their
fellow soldiers ever knowing their
sexual preferences, yet the mere
utterance condemns their service
records and threatens to end their
careers.
What of personal privacy and
basic human rights? These men and
women have made it very clear that
they are willing to serve and die for
their country. I would be willing to
wager that the vast majority of
people reading this column are not
in any military service and do not
ever intend to be, yet we all enjoy
our basicrights guaranteed tousby
the Constitution.
This is not the first public de-
bate concerning homosexuals to
ruffle political feathers. In 1991,
Craig Dean and Patrick Gill filed a
suit against the city of Washington,
D.C in the amount of $125 million
dollars because thecity denied them
a marriage license. The reasons for
gays wanting legal recognition of
homosexual marriages are numer-
ous; marriage improves tax situa-
tions,entailsmedicaland insurance
benefits, etc. After all, gay people
pay all the same taxes that hetero-
sexuals pay, they abide by the same
rules and regulations and are hu-
man beings just like any hetero-
sexual.
Back to the question at hand.
Many would argue that hav-
ing gays in combat would under-
mine morale and cause unneces-
sary tension among the soldiers.
There are also the staunch bigots
who view homosexuals as being
too weak and confused to be of any
use in battle, and should therefore
be eliminated. Up until recently,
these same views have been re-
peated about women in combat as
well. Now,after DesertStorm, these
views are all but totally outmoded.
If women can be accepted as
equal and productive members of
the armed forces, why not homo-
sexuals?Thisisnottoimplythatall
homosexuals are women or femi-
nine men,just to illustrate thatsome
underrated segments of the popu-
lation can be useful members of
any given fighting force.
When you come right down
to it, just how much strength or
machismo does it take to fight in a
war today? With all of our techni-
cal advances, war is almost as easy
asitispointless. Anyone can pulla
trigger or throw a grenade; what
happens behind closed tent flaps
after the fighting is over is his or
her own business.
Recently,Iwasrelievingmy-
self in a men's room on campus
and 1 happened to read somescrawl
on the stall. It read something to
the effect of "We salute those Ma-
rines that did their civic duty by
bashing those (expletive deleted)
faggots

Letters to the Editor
Safer-sex information valuable to students
To the Editor:
In response to Mr.
Webster's "disgusted" attitude
in Tuesday's paper, I fear that
Webster has totally missed the
point about the full-page en-
dorsements The East Carolinian
published throughout the safer-
sex campaign. These endorse-
ments were not "rammed"
down the throats of students
because we already know it's
out there and it's happening (in
regard to the sexual behaviors
you listed).
There is no need to refer to
ourtacticsofpromotingsafesex
as "degenerate, liberal mindset
The information provided is
valuable and useful to the stu-
dents on this campus. I'm sure
that the Peer Health Educators
and Student Health Services go
througha lot of trouble and time
toorganize such campaigns. The
East Carolinian did a great job in
their advertisements in grab-
bingtheattentionof all thatread
the paper (that is the point of
advertisement). These ads were
in noway "promoting high-risk
sexual behaviors" when these
behaviors arealready occurring.
These ads, and the campaign,
promote a way to help control
the devastating consequences
that can occur when one does
not take precautions, whether
hetero- or homosexual.
On a final note, perhaps it
isyou,Mr. Webster, who should
pull your head out of your anal
cavity and realize that this is
1993 and that sex is not some-
thing to be kept hidden in the
closet. Sex is more freely publi-
cized and sex education is be-
coming an important part of all
school curriculum. No, we are
not on a "mission from God to
save the world and yes, wedo
realize there is more to life than
sex. But, humans are sexual be-
ings and unfortunately, devas-
tating consequences can occur
from unprotected sex.
So please step back,
Webster, and let our university
lend a helping hand in educat-
ing our students about these
consequences and how to pre-
vent them. You are the one who
needs to face the reality of what
is going on in the world. Per-
haps you have reached a
"mindset" where you can no
longer relate to my generation.
Attending an institution of
higher learning requires more
than just book-sense, buta little
common sense, also.

Senior
Health Education
TEC safer-sex campaign supported healthy life
To the Editor:
I felt strongly that I had
to respond to Mr. Kenneth
Webster's Mar. 2 letter to the
editor regarding safe sex. I
don't believe that The East Caro-
linian is advocating "degener-
ate behavior" (for the record, I
don't think that sex between
two mature human beings is
immoral). But more, they are
supporting a long and healthy
life for ourselves and our chil-
dren.
This rnan'seditorial sim-
ply makes my blood boil. This
disease is not God's punish-
ment to so-called sexual devi-
ants, but purely a tragedy that
touches the lives of thousands
of different races, genders, ages
and sexual preferences each
year.
I understand that
Websterisfromadifferentgen-
eration, but age is no excuse
for apathetic ignorance. AIDS
sufferersexperience a long and
dreadful death. Encouraging
college students to be consci-
entious about condoms can

National media
worsened Trade
Center explosion
This Friday, someone blew out the base-
ment of the World Trade Center. Five people
died, 1,042 people were injured and three
people are still missing. This act is a direct shot
to the national and foreign economic commu-
nity. While such an act is obviously disturb-
ing, the national media made the event worse
by exploiting its far-reaching technologies to
scare the American citizen.
No later than four hours after the explo-
sion, Phil Donahue and the news depart-
ments of ABC and CBS were suggesting that
the cause of the destruction was a bomb
planted by foreign terrorists. The FBI con-
firmed the next day that it too suspected this,
but did not attempt to guess the saboteurs'
identity. This did not stop the network news
agencies from brash supposition.
Since the significance of CNN was made
clear to the world after the Persian Gulf War,
the major networks have tried to not only be
as efficient as CNN, but also as sensationalis-
tic in the news. While such enthusiasm en-
ables the public to be more informed of cur-
rent events, it also encourages the agencies to
create news without full verification. They
also may air rumors in order to sound as
exciting as the competition. Such undisci-
plined vigor ranks as tabloid entertainment.
The reporting of the likelihood of a de-
liberate bombing swept over the majority of
local and national newscasts. It was thrilling
in an odd way; we could be the target of a
faceless terrorist organization whocould strike
anywhereand anytime with impunity. It was
like the enemies of James Bond and the Aveng-
ers leaping into reality.
However, the networks began running
reports of increased security in the rest of
New York City, Washington, DC, and even
numerous airports around the country. Such
wide-spread measures toguard against an as-
yet-unconfirmed antagonistappeared rushed
and paranoid. The coverage of these responses
hinted that such precautions were valid steps.
Were the networks hoping to make such
an incident (terrible in its own right) merely a
precursor to future events? Yes. An ABC re-
porter rommented that moreeventsare inevi-
table since America is the only superpower
left and that we make an obvious target not
only for specific retaliations, but also for blind
acts of aggression. Remarks like these bom-
barded the airwavesduringtheweekend and
served to raise tensions across the nation.
While I laud the determination of the
networks to scoop one another for the big
story, such excitement was ill-placed. It was a
bomb, but the FBI believes that the material
used in the bomb was too common to be
constructed by professional terrorists. They
also suggest that it may not have been the
work of a mad bomber because there was no
prior threat.
In other words, the bomb was placed in
a specific place for a specific reason. Whi le this
information does not diminish the tragedy of
those harmed, the evidence left by the explo-
sion does not give credibility to the networks'
concerns and reporting.
The public needs to be aware that while
the media may be omnipresent, it surely isn't
omnipotent.

Comic convention
to be held Sunday
By Cliff Coffey
Staff Writer
For the past 15 years, Charles Watts has been selling comic books to college students,
inhisstoretheBooktrader Nostalgia Bookstand.EveryonceinawhileWatteholdsacomic
book convention. The next one, celebrating his 15th anniversary, is March 7.
Hefirst opened hisstorebecausehe found thatit was
difficult for people to find the comics they wan ted on the
newsstands in stores. Watts would have to look all over
to wn to get the issues thathe read. There wasno central
place for comic books. He filled the need.
Though college students make up about50 percent
of his clientele, Watts says that he's not dependent on
them. Though He likes the diversity that the students
bring. DC Comics' Vertigo comics sell much better in a
college town, and Watts feels that some of the best
writing in comics is happening in the Vertigo line
(Sandman, Shade, Animal Man, Enigma).
Since 1970, the Pitt County native has been
anavid collector of comics and feels thatif people
like the Vertigo line of comics, then they'll most
likely enjoy independent comics from compa-
nies like Thundra, Fantagraphics and Kitchen
Sink.
Watts sees a new trend in comics, the
emergence of independent publishers as a
challenge to Marvel and DCs market share. He
mentiohed several up-and-coming publishers,
including Valiant, Image and Dark Horse. He
does see, though, mat the market is at a very
volatile state. "There'sa lotofexcessoutthere
now. To some degree, there is alsoa manipu-
lation of the collector said Watts.
The wholeindustry haschanged from
its beginnings. Now, an artist can sur-
vive off of working on one comic a
month, whereas lOyears ago an artist
would have to work on several comics
to get by. The importance of the artist has grown tremendously in the new market. A
convention is one of the places that promotes the creators of the comics, as well as giving
collectors a place to gather to talk about the current trends and happenings in comics.
The convention will be held at the Ramada Inn on Greenville Blvd on Sunday, March
7 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. There is no admission fee. Watts feels that a convention allows
collectors to find treasures from other dealers in the area. "There's so much new stuff
coming out that it'sbecome hard to keep everything in stock, and a convention allows the
collector a chance to find books they normally can't said Watts. Another bonus to the
convention is mat it exposes comics to the public and gets new people into comics.
Area artists Craig Gilmore (Black Leopard), Nathan Massengill (Fenry) and ECU
alumnus Jeff Parker (Vampirella) will be attending the convention, with the possibility of
a few more dropping in.

Disney CD sure to please young audience
Melissa Etheridge, Bobby McFerrin among famous voices
By Warren Sumner
Staff Writer
When The East Carolinian decided to
review the latest music release from
Disney records, they needed someone
who could relate to the record's target
audience, someone who could think on
the level of a four-to-10-year-old.
I was the obvious choice for the task
of reviewing For Our Children: The Con-
cert, Disney's newest offering. This re-
lease, the second album benefit for the
Pediatric AIDS Foundation, features
some of the top recording artists in the
music industry singing some of thegreat-
est children's songs of all time.
The album features such talents as
Melissa Etheridge and Bobby McFerrin,
as well as artists with more questionable
abilities, such as Faula Abdul and
Gerardo. This 16-song compilation, pro-
duced by jazz-great George Duke, show-
cases just how much fun thereis in mak-
ing good music for kids. Several of the
selections were recorded live at Los An-
geles' Universal Amphitheater in Sep-
tember.
The disc starts off with Paula Abdul's
live performance of "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-
Dah Abdul, backed by Duke's all-star
band gives what may be her best perfor-
mance todate. Of course, given thequal-
ity of Abdul's offerings in the past, that's
not saying much. But this disc is for
children, and Abdul's performance is
energetic and could be captivating for
kids.
The young rap duo Kriss Kross fol-
lows Abdul's lead with "The Krossed
Out version of a Nursery Rhyme These
two teenagers rap some of America's
oldest nursery rhymes, changing the
words to fit a more urban and '90s child
audier e. Their performance warmed the
audience for the entrance of Celine Dion
and Maurice Davis, performing the
theme from "Beauty and the Beast This
live version carries much of the emotion
of the recorded version and I will cer-
tainly admit: Dion can sing.
The disc continues with a studio ver-
sion of Woody Harrelson singing
"Happy to the Sun" based on a John
Drinkwater poem. Harrelson is backed
only by an acoustic guitar and his voice
leaves much to be desired. (Stick to
"Cheers" Woody.)
Live music reemerges on the next
track, as Michael Bolton performs "You
Are My Sunshine" with Duke's band.
Bolton is at his most saccharine here, but
delights the crowd of children, as well as
their mothers in attendance.
After a Motown-influenced rendi-
tion of "Mockingbi rd " by Shanice, one of
the record's better talents emerges with
an offering by Melissa Etheridge.
Etheridge performs a rendition of "The

Milestone Comics will write a
new chapter in the history of comic
books. DenysCow-an,DerekDingle,
Michael Davis and Dwayne
McDuffiecollaborated in theinven-
tion of the sect of ethnic based com-
ics, which will be distributed
through DC Comics.
Cowan and McDuffie have
beenworldngtothecomkmedium

universe. They're previous work
included manyblackcharacters
dudingtheBlackPanther Deathlok,
and Luke Cage. They have spent
the past few years working on the
prindpleofMilestone;tryingtoget
it just right before they unveiled it.
The line is based on black charac-
ters, writtenbyblackwriters,drawn
by black artists.
The first title from Milestone is
called Hardware. Hardware is by
CowanardMcDuffie.TtenexttifJe,
Blood Syndicate, is by McDuffie and
Trevor Von Eeden. Icon is the third
comic from the Milestone line and
will be handled by McDuffie,Mark
Bright and Mike Gustovkh. The
final of the first four tides, Static, will
be done by McDuffie, Leon and
Mitchell. McDuffie, obviously, will
be the conductor of the initial line.
He also serves as the head editor for
Milestone, as well as the submis-
sions editor for those that wish to
enter the ranks of this new com-
pany.
Cowan stated that the main
reasonhe wanted tobeginanethnic
based company isbecausehedidn't
feel that black characters were
handled correctly in comics. He felt
that toe black characters were used
as stereotypes and weren't given a
realistic representation. They were
also used only as supporting char-
acters, with few exceptions. Those
that did get a lead role didn't have
longevity. Cowan wanted to por-
tray ethnic characters in their own
cultures, truthfully.
Once Cowan and McDuffie
began looking for ethnical comic,
creators they found there are many
black writers and artists interested
in working for Milestone. They ini-
tially decided on four comics, but
the surface will just be scratched
with Hardware, Blood Syndicate, Icon
and Static. Their motto is, "If you're
not there, you just won't get it"

Peterson sets sails for professional ranks
By Warren Summner
Assistant Sports Writer
It's always tough when you can't
reach your expectations. There is a feel-
ing of lost opportunity that is hard to
deal with, especially if you know that
you may not have another chance to
achieve those goals.
Senior guard Ronnell Peterson,
along with his peers on the Pirate bas-
ketball team, is dealing with this sense
of disappointment, by chasing it with
hopes for success. Peterson is facing the
heartbreak of another losing season with
the therapeutic belief that his team is
poised to shake things up in this
weekend's CAA tournament.
"I feel like we have a good chance to
be tough in the tournament Peterson
said. "Wehavea real good attitude about
it. We're the underdog, so no one really
expects us to do much of anything. It
will be real important for us to get past
the first night, but I think if we can do
that we could make things interesting
Peterson said he feels one of the
major problems the team encountered
this season was inconsistency in their
performance levels from game-to-game.
"It seemed like we'd all have our
(good) games on different nights, one
night it would be Ike (Copeland), then it
would be Lester (Lyons), then me, then
Kareem (Richardson), it seemed we
could never get our game together on
the same night
Peterson is extremely supportive of
his coach, Eddie Payne and said that he
believes Payne can turn ECU's program
around in time.
"Coach Payne is a really good
coach Peterson said. "When I came
into ECU, I was recruited by (former
Pirate coach Mike) Steele. When coach
Payne came in no one was too sure what

he would be like. I wish we'd won a few
more games and everything but Coach
Payne really helped me. I wish I could

Peterson, while maintaining high
hopes for the Pirates' CAA appearance,
also hopes to continue his basketball ca-
reer after his college days end. Peterson
is realistic about the work he must do to
be able to play on the professional level.
"I would love to play basketball af-

pretty well from the perimeter and I

By Chip Hudson
Staff Writer
The East Carolina Women's Soccer Team
triumphed over the Chapel Hill Pioneers 1-0
in a hotly contested battle Sunday in Chapel
Hill. The Pirate triumph was over one of their
fiercest rivals, making
the win especially
sweet.
Just five minutes
into the game, freshman
forward Kiki Anderson
was tripped in the pen-
alty area and awarded
a penalty kick. Her shot
rebounded off of the left
post, and ECU was de-
nied a prime scoring op-
portunity.
Two minutes later,
& Pioneer broke free into
3?CU territory and fired
a shot at goalkeeper
jaime Pierce. Fortu-
nately, it sailed just over
Ithe crossbar and the score remained 0-0.
20 minutes into the half, sophomore Jill
Metzger broke free and streaked down the
Adeline to get into scoring territory. As she
ilrew two defenders to her, she played a per-
fect pass to Alison Russell, who fired a left
footed shot over the outstretched arms of the

prettiest goal that I have ever seen this team
score
After the half, ECU came out strong. Half-
back Sheryl Hawkins was denied a goal from
30 yards out only by a fantastic save from the
Pioneer keeper. The Pirates
continued to play strong soc-
cer, but the tide started to
shift Chapel Hill's way. As
the second half neared it's
midpoint, it looked as if the
solid ECU defense might
break. Chapel Hill's star
player, who played in Brit-
ain with the National Team,
tried every move in the book
to get around Mary Keenan

held tough. Fullbacks
