Scholarship donations needed
More medical
school student
aid to be
provided through
donations
Andy Turner
Staff Writer
The ECU Medical Foundation,
the fund-raising organization for the
medical school, still needs money to
reach the goal of $1 million for its cur-
rent fund-raising drive.
About Sjnn.OOO has been do-
nated so far, said Dr. Robert Adams,
president of the medical foundation.
He said the drive will run through
March or April in connection with tax
season.
All of the money donated to the
medical foundation will go to provide
more scholarships for the medical
school. Currently, the medical school
has 27 scholarships and 300 students
? 65 percent of whom receive finan-
cial aid.
"We have very few scholarships
here at the School of Medicine, since
we are so new and haven't really pri-
oritized scholarship fund-raising in the
past Adams said. "We probably need
another 20 well-funded scholarships so
that we can compete with other medi-
cal schools in our regions for good stu-
dents.
"We are losing good students
because they are offered more money
to go to other schools
The medical foundation began
a mail campaign in December to so-
licit funds for the drive. Letters were
sent to previous donors and prospec-
tive donors, said Adams. The medical

foundation also met face-to-face with
industrial and commercial groups and
management staffs and private foun-
dations.
Adams said the group has sev-
eral goals that they hope to achieve
with the fund-raising foundation.
"The overall success hinges on
whether we, as a school of medicine,
live up to our mission and that mis-
sion is one, to provide better health
care for our region of the state; two,
to provide for more minorities and
underrepresented minorities in medi-
cal education; and three, to provide
more general-practice, primary care
physicians to all of North Carolina
Adams said. "If we can have an effect
on any of those areas and meet our
mission then we will consider it a suc-
cess
Adams said the medical founda-
tion appreciates all donations that they
receive.
"We are very thankful for our
donors and the people all over East-
ern North Carolina who have come to
our aid in the past four years Adams
said.
Anne Ballance May and John E.
May, both alumni of the university, re-
cently established a charitable remain-
der trust fund that will benefit the
medical school.
The Mays transferred real estate
valued at approximately $119,000 into
the trust fund. The principal and any
undistributed income generated from
the trust fund will benefit the medical
foundation, after satisfying Mrs. May's
life income interest.
The Mays and their daughter,
Mary Jon Pabst, who is also an alum-
nus, are involved with numerous uni-
versity organizations. Mrs. May was
an accountant in the ECU Business
Affairs Office for 36 years until she
retired in July 1994.
Mr. May said the couple picked
the medical school because of how it
has benefited eastern North Carolina.
"It is one of the greatest things
to happen to eastern North Carolina
May said. "It is the catalyst that sparked
the growth of eastern North Carolina
Adams said the medical founda-
tion were very appreciative of the do-
nation by the Mays.
"It was a great gift said Mays.
"It just shows you what people can do
if they want to help. In the future, those
kinds of gifts will really help us

Activities start for
FratRush Week
Laura Jackman
Staff Writer
Now that the Spring semester has
begun, ECU students have settled into
their routines and once again, the Inter-
fraternity Council (IFC) is ready to kick
off Rush Week.
Tonight is the first night for the
planned activities that will run until
Thursday, Jan. 19. From 8-11 p.m all 17
fraternities associated with IFC will open
their doors to any ECU male interested
in Greek life.
"Only 10 percent of students on
this campus are Greek said IFC Rush
Chair Neal Terrell, "and we'd like to in-
crease that number
In an effort to do just that, the
IFC held a Fraternity Forum on the mall
last week to introduce Greek life to stu-
dents and to answer any questions that
they might have about the system. It
was the first step in what IFC believes to
be public awareness without feeling any
pressure to make a decision.
"We had a good turnout and feel
that the forum served its purpose and
therefore believe it was successful said
IFC President Justin Conrad.
IFC is trying to change the image
of the Greek system by "dealing with the
barriers and misconceptions people
might have about Greek life Terrell said.
"People used to think that frater-
nity life had a negative effect on your
grades, but we've changed that and have
the numbers to prove it" Conrad said.
Last semester, the overall GPA for
undergraduate fraternity males was
2340, very close to the overall 2350 GPA
for all undergraduate ECU males, Conrad
said. IFC said its various time manage-
ment and leadership skills seminars held
last semester (which were mandatory for
all pledges to attend) are the reason for
the increase.
"We want to raise those numbers
yet again so we are looking to coordi-
nate another seminar with members of
our executive council faculty members

If you don't know what to do
with those pesky, cluncky cars clut-
tering up your front yard, the North
Carolina Special Olympics (NCSO)
urges you to donate them.
NCSO is sponsoring an innova-
tive new fund-raiser called "Recycle
for Gold The organization is asking
the public to donate unwanted auto-
mobiles that will be resold, used for
spare parts or crushed for scrap metal.
"Regardless of the condition,
Special Olympics will receive $25 for
each recycled vehicle or half the funds
generated from selling parts or from
refurbishing the vehicle said Dave
Lenox, the NCSO executive director,
in a press release.
The funds from the recycled
cars will benefit the NCSO's sports
training program, which helps prepare
athletes for the 1995 Special Olym-
pics Summer World Games. Prospec-
tive participants should call 1-800-590-
1600, and a salvage operator will
schedule a pick-up time.
The 1995 Special Olympics
Summer World Games are being held
June 30 through July 9 at sites
throughout Connecticut The Games
are comprised of 19 sporting events
ranging from aquatics, to powerlifting,
volleyball and a sport called bocce.
"Bocce is a game taken from the
Italians that is similar to lawn bowl-
ing or horse shoes. It's more popular
with the older athletes said Keith L.
Fishburne, associate executive direc-
tor of the NCSO.
In addition to the "Recycle for
Gold" program, two more fundraising
campaigns will take place simulta-
neously this month to benefit the
Summer World Games.
"We also have a corporate cam-
paign to solicit support but these will
be the only fund-raisers directed at
the general public Fishburne said.
The Procter & Gamble company
is sponsoring the second campaign by
including millions of coupons for their
products in the Publisher's Clearing
House national winter mailing. Thirty-
three coupons for Procter & Gamble
products, ranging from Scope Mouthy
wash to Tide Clothes Detergent will
be distributed in the mailing so that
people can save money while benefit-
ing the Special Olympics. Ten cents
from every redeemed coupon will be
donated to the Special Olympics.
The NCSO expects to receive up
to $20,000 from this promotion. The
National Special Olympics stands to
receive up to $500,000.
A third way to contribute to the
NCSO, for those who do not have an
extra car lying around or who do not
need any kind of personal care or
household products, is to get out the
checkbook.
The NCSO has set goals of rais-
ing $85,000, to send 65 athletes and
20 coaches to the 1995 Summer
World Games in Connecticut
If you would like to help real-
ize this goal, call Lenox at 1-800-843-
6276 or send a donation directly to

Athletes suspended for reaching out
Three West Point football players who admitted groping the breasts
of female cadets during a pre-game ceremony have been suspended from
the team for the season. Eighteen female cadets told academy officials
that they were inappropriately touched while they ran past the football
players.
UNC students want a refund
Students at UNC Chapel Hill are demanding a partial refund of
their $28 student activity fees because the bowling alleys have been out
of service. The student bowling alley has been in operation since 1969
and has problems. The manager said he has had problems with the lanes
since he took his position in 1992. Currently only two lanes are working,
while six others are being overhauled for repairs.
Injectable birth control increasing on college campuses
College aged women are increasingly turning from birth control
pills and other traditional methods to a new drug which only needs to be
injected every three months. Officials at Indiana State University said
that demand for the Depo-Provera drug is increasing. The student health
center at Indiana State offers the drug. The drug was approved in 1992,
and used by more than 30 million women world-wide.
Beavis and Butthead studied at Harvard
The last morons one would expect to see in an ivy-league school
were the hot topic in a class at Harvard last week. The "Moral Dilemmas
of Management" class used the popular show, Beavis and Butthead, to
examine how business interests may be harmful to society. By viewing
exerts from the show and studying the cable industry in general, several
students commented that the case study was beneficial - huh, huh-huh.
What did they do with their bond money?
The college of engineering at NC State is currently constructing a
graduate research center. A five level parking deck is also under construc-
tion on campus. The $32 million projects are being funded by the bond
referendum which passed last November. The projects are expected to be
completed in the fall of '96. A golf course is also being planned. Deelop-
ers at the university plan to leave up to 50 percent of the land untouched
for environmental reasons.

Depressed? Help is out there
Free counseling
available for
students
Tambra Zion
Assistant News Editor
Depression can affect anyone at
any time. The symptoms are well
known and vary: isolation, weight loss,
feelings of hopelessness, helplessness
or fatigue. If such feelings persist for
more than two weeks, depression has
set in and help should be sought
ECU offers counseling services
through the Counseling Center and
Mental Health Services located within
the Student Health Center. All ser-
vices are free-of-charge to students.
The Counseling Center offers
individual counseling and is sponsor-
ing a depression workshop
called, "Beating the College
Blues The program will
begin Feb. 6, said George
Gressman of the Counseling
Center. Between seven and
12 students will be admitted
to the workshop group.
"The workshop is
cognitively behavioral based
with activities based on
learning what makes people
depressed and going out and chang-
ing those behaviors
There are differences in the se-
verity of depression students can ex-
perience, and the causes of depression
are just as abundant
Gressman said people who are
severely depressed usually do not seek
help because they are unable to func-
tion.
"The difference is between the
severity of symptoms mild depres-
sion may occur if someone is feeling
unhappy or distressed, yet a wide
range of functioning remains intact"

?INSIGNIA
said Dr. Russ Federman, a psycholo-
gist with Mental Health. "With more
severe depression, it all begins to slide
downhill. To be successful in school
you must be fairly motivated, that may
diminish
Federman said college students
can be more at risk of depression.
"In some ways the university
environment is a 15 week time lim-
ited pressure cooker Federman said.
"School is a real conditional environ-
ment
Federman said he believes the
majority of college students do not
suffer from depression but can feel
depressed at times.
Major depression is most com-
monly diagnosed by Mental Health
said Dr. Steven Dauer, a psychologist
with Mental Health Services.
"For major depression the time
frame is two weeks, there would be a
severe decline in functioning Dauer
said
Dysthymia, a less acute
and less severe form of depres-
sion, will usually affect a per-
son for more than two years
to be diagnosed. Adjustment
disorder with depressive
mood is often caused by a
traumatic incident such as
breaking up with a boy-
friend or academic failure,
Dauer said. Depressive disor-
ders and bipolar depression (com-
monly referred to as manic depression)
are some other types of the illness. In
order to be clinically diagnosed, a
person must go through screening to
determine what type of illness they
suffer from.
"By far the majority of people
we see are for some form of depres-
sion or another Dauer said "We do
see a lot of other different kinds of
problems but depression is really the
common problem here
Mental Health Services differs
from the Counseling Center in treat-
ment.
"We tend to deal with more se-
vere problems that impact on the stu-
dents functioning the people we see
are not doing very well in several ar-
eas of their life Dr. Dauer said. "The
counseling center deals with what we
might think of as the normal levels of
adjustment and development and this
age range of people here on a college
campus things like loss and relation-
ship difficulties, stress management
and of course the academic support
services
According to Gressman, 850
students turned to the Counseling
Center for help for depression last
semester. Mental Health services
handles fewer patients, because there
are less staff resources available.
Students suffering from depres-
sion due to chemical disorders may
also need medication prescribed
through Mental Health Services.
Both genders suffer from de-
pression, but more women seek help,
Gressman said.
"It seems to be more culturally
acceptable for women to seek coun-
seling Gressman said. "Men are
taught to have to deal with it on their
own
Whether male or female, it is
important to get help.
"What's important is that
people be honest with themselves if
they are having those difficulties and
to try to deal with their reluctance to
get help Dauer said.
There is good news for those
who suffer from depression. Accord-
ing to literature distributed through
the Counseling Center, 80 percent of
those who obtain help for depression
are cured.

Poet to discuss history of rap
Jeffrey Lee
Staff Writer
What could rap, poetry and
poetics have in common? Notre
Dame professor and author Dr. Pe-
ter Erskine will be glad to answer
that question when he visits ECU
to discuss Afro-American Poetics in
the U.S.
Dr. Peters is the 1995 Tag
Lecturer sponsored annually by the
English Department. The lecture is
slated for tomorrow at 4 p.m. in
GCB 1031. Dr. Erskine will be avail-
able for questions during a recep-
tion scheduled immediately follow-
ing the lecture.
Peters is the former director
of African-American Studies at Uni-
versity of California at Berkeley. His
areas of specialization include
Faulkner Studies. American Litera-
ture to 1930, African-American Lit-
erature. Eighteenth-Century British
Literature and Afro-Poetics.
"My emphasis is going to be
on giving a perspective on a book
that I am completing by the same
name. Afro-Ameri-
can Poetics in the
United States
Peters said. "What
1 do is try to start
with African back-
ground, talk about
the various types
of poetry that ex-
ist in Africa and
then 1 look at sev-
eral types of folk
tradition in the
U.S. that help to
maintain the links
to those old tradi-
tions
Dr. Peters'
work embraces all
areas of these folk
traditions such as
the jazz tradition
of poetry that, ac-
I also look at
rap music
because rap
music is from
rap poetry and
that comes from
a very, very long
tradition that
was launched
back in Africa.

According to Julie Fay, an as-
sociate professor of the English de-
partment, Peters is developing a
new. system of poetic measure spe-
cifically for African and African-
American poetry.
Fay added that the rhythm of
African and Afro-American poetry
is different from most other poetry
and is in need of its own poetic mea-
sure.
Ten years in the making, the
thrust of Dr. Peters' book and lec-
ture examines Afro-poetics in rela-
tion to African and African-Ameri-
can folk traditions.
Although no publishing or
release date has been set, Peters
hopes to secure a publisher in the
near future.

Originally from a small farm
in upstate New York, Leebrick be-
gan his career in art as a painter.
He is a graduate of both Clemson
University and the University of
Hawaii, holding degrees in sculpture

spent in Hawaii have given him an
appreciation for the coast, and he is
pleased to be living so close to it.

As director of the Gallery,
Leebrick's duties include both ex-
hibition planning and fundraising,
as well as the hands on implemen-
tation of his vision for the gallery's
future. He sees the gallery as a
"teaching tool that can educate stu-
dents, as well as inform and stimu-

which is manifested in my gallery
agenda Leebrick said. "We need to
embrace art and not keep it tucked

Leebrick is excited about the
events which are already scheduled
for the gallery, and hopes to put to-
gether some future exhibitions and
symposiums which focus on Native-
American art as well as the environ-
ment.
"The Beuys exhibit is a coup.

However, students will not

Does Mickey want you?
Teri Howell
Staff Writer
Walt Disney World is looking
for singers and musicians to be a
part of the Disney Entertainment
Work Experience Program for the
upcoming summer session.
Larry Smith, audition coordi-
nator for Walt Disney World, said
students will audition to be per-
formers in one of the three catego-
ries: All American College March-
ing Band, All American College
Jazz Band or All American Jazz
Singers. Auditioners must be 18
years old to perform on the profes-
sional level and at least 16 to par-
ticipate in parade performances. All
entertainers will be covered under
the terms and conditions of the
Actor's Equity Association, a per-
formers' labor union, Smith said.
"Students will be divided up
into separate categories according
to their talents and auditions will
be held in these selective cities:
Anaheim, Ca. (Jan. 13-14), Orlando
(Jan. 28), Evanston, 111. (Feb. 4),
Bloomington, Ind. (Feb. 5), Boston
(Feb. 11), New York City (Feb. 12),
Dallas (Feb. 16), Austin.Tx. (Feb.
17), and Los Angeles (Feb. 18-19)
Smith said.
Walt Disney is seeking per
formers who have top abilities in
technical, lyrical, and improvisa-
tional skills in music. The Ameri-
can College Jazz Band is audition
ing for five saxophones, four trum-
pets, three trombones, one bass,
one guitar, one piano, one tuba and
one percussion. The All American
College Jazz Singers has openings
for two sopranos, two altos, one
tenor, and one bass. The All Ameri-
can Marching Band needs five saxo-
phones, four trumpets, four trom-
bones, two tubas, and three
percusssions. Sight reading is a
plus, Smith said.
"Students will perform four
hours a day and attend two hour
career workshops with professional
actors and singers Smith said.
"We are entering our 24th year of
this program and the program re-
alty helps students master top per-
forming ability as well as develop
skills for a profession in the enter-
tainment world
Disney is currently looking
for actors to participate in their
summer show, The Indiana Jones
Stunt Spectacular. Male
auditioners should have tumbling
and athletic abilities as well as com-
bat and training in high falls.
Women auditioners should be ath-
letic and have gymnastic and tum-
bling strength, Smith said. The po-
sitions that are available are Indi-
ana Jones, Marion Wavensworth,
stunt doubles, casting director and
more.
ECU student, Andrew Miller,
worked for Walt Disney World in
1993 under the Disney Co-op Man-
agement Program as a celebrity
food and beverage host.
Miller said he was inter-
viewed and chosen for the job that
only one out often people received.
Miller attended 10 Management
Seminars over his six month stay
at Disney and met many celebrities
while he was a part of the
"Hoopdee Doo Review" that per-
formed three shows a night.
Disney has one of the top five
benefits of any company, Miller
said. After you work for Disney you
are a CT (casting temporary) which
means you can come back to Disney
anytime as long as you work at least
one day every year.
"I decided to take a semester
off and work at Disney Miller said.
I worked at the number one dinner
show in the world and had a blast.
Working for Disney has good job
security and it looks great on a re-
sume. It was a good, fun job expe-
rience for me and I recommend it
to anyone

Flood
clean-up
begins
AP - Residents of western
North Carolina began cleaning up
Monday after weekend rains killed
three Boy Scouts, washed out roads
and inundated property along creeks
and riverbeds.
In Watauga County, about 10
families remained stranded in their
homes Monday because of high wa-
ters and washed-out roads, said county
emergency services spokeswoman
Lisa Shoun.
"They're fine, but we can't
reach them Shoun said. "They've got
power, they've got phones, but they're
stranded
More than 8 inches of rain fell
in Watauga County from Friday
evening, and some areas reported as
much as 11 inches. Grandfather Moun-
tain in Avery County had about 15
inches of rain, although exact mea-
surements were not possible because
of high winds, officials there said.
The downpours caused creeks
and streams to run riot over their
banks and brought lakes to flood
stages. By Monday, most of the rain
stopped, and emergency crews were
assessing the damage.
"It's just one of those things
where you have to let it do its thing
and then go in and clean up the
mess said Watauga County emer-
gency worker Steve Sudderth.
Thad Bryson, coordinator for
the North Carolina Emergency Man-
agement Division's regional office in
Asheville, said the standing water in
most counties had receded, and crews
mainly were cleaning up mud and
debris.

Nation remembers civil leader
P - The nation remembered
Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday
; mid a feud between his family and
the National Park Service over who
preserve his memory and how.
At Ebenezer Baptist Church,
where King was pastor. Dexter Scott
King vowed to continue his lather's
work through economic opportunity,
calling for a SHi billion investment in
black community.
"My father had a dream. I too
have a dream the 3-year-old said in
; Martin Luther King Day address.
' My father delivered to his generation
political freedom. I would like to de-
liver to my generation economic free-
dom
More than 400 people packed
the church, next door to the Martin
Luther King Center for Nonviolent
Social Change and the crypt that
holds the body of the civil rights
leader, who would have been 66 on
Sunday.
The park service wants to build
a museum and visitors center near the
King Center. King's widow. Coretta
Scott King, and children want to cre-
ate their own interactive museum.
The dispute prompted the fam-
ily to halt park service tours of Kin, s
birthplace. The service now shepherds
tours past the home and presents a
slide show at its own facility about a
block away. The sides ate to meet Sat-
urday and discuss the disagreement.
The feud cropped up Monday
in Dexter King's church speech, and
in appearances on CNN and NBC by
King and Troy Lissimore. the park
service's superintendent of the King
Historic Site.
Lissimore said he thinks the
dispute could be worked out. But
King, now president of the King Cen-
ter, said the park service has falsely
accsed the family of trying to profit
from his father's memory.
"Myself and my family have
been accused of protecting our
legacy, the King legacy King said
during the service. "Yet we did not
wake up one morning and decide to
start a company called Martin Luther
King Jr. Inc
L'p to 700 marchers walked
through downtown Memphis. Tenn
stopping at the Lorraine Motel, now
the National Civil Rights Museum,
where King was assassinated by a
sniper on April 4. 1968.
Elsewhere:
- In Denver. President Clinton
addressed a crowd of more than
20.000 at a park as part of a daylong
celebration that featured a two-mile
parade. "Even as he marched all
across this land and took that vast
throng to Washington, D.C he knew
in the end that what was in the
hearts and minds of the average
RUSH from p. 1
American citizen was even more im-
portant Clinton said.
- In Boston, about 2,000
people attended a breakfast in Kings
honor, where 19-year-old Tito
Jackman said his generation has gone
astray. "We've gone off on tangents
instead of taking up the baton and
running the next leg said Jackman.
a student at the University of New
Hampshire.
- In New Hampshire, the only
state that has not fully adopted the
federal King holiday, about 25 teen-
agers staked out the sidewalk at the
Statehouse in Concord in a vigil
scheduled to last from midnight Sun-
day to midnight Monday.
"We feel he was an important
enough person in the civil rights
movement that he deserved to be rec-
ognized Eliot Lothrop said. The
state isn't giving him enough recog-
nition
FLOOD from p. 4
"In the mountains, when we to remain closed Tuesday,
have a heck of a lot of water, it rises Another area particularly
rapidly and goes away rapidly he
sa; 1. )
Exact figures on the damage
would not be available until Wednes-
day or Thursday. Bryson said.
Most roads from Yancey and
McDowell counties south were open
Monday, but in Watauga County, 25
state roads remained closed.
Some Watauga County roads
were completely under water or had
been washed away. On other roads,
the pavement was intact but the dirt
underneath it had washed away.
About 50 county residents had
been evacuated from their homes Sat-
urday, along with residents of a nurs-
ing home in Boone. and emergency
crews helped them move back in Mon-
day. Shouti sai 1.
However, about five families'
homes were too damaged for them to
return Monday, she said.
Watauga County schools were
hard hit by the flooding was Caldwell
County, where three Boy Scouts
drowned Saturday after being swept
from a foot bridge into the raging
waters of a creek.
In Collettsville, a portable wa-
ter tanker was set up at the city fire
department Sunday to provide clean
drinking water for area residents. Of-
ficials feared the flood waters may
have contaminated wells in the area,
said county fire marshal Dale Coffey.
The bad weather also caused
some scattered power outages and
problems with telephone service,
Coffey said.
Kelly Winkler, an engineer with
the state Department of Transporta-
tion, said crews were working Mon-
day to try and reopen Caldwell County
roads closed by high waters and
mudslides.
"We're going to be working late
until we get them opened he said.

and our adviser. Dean Speier, to study
the effects of Creek life and its strengths
and weaknesses within the campus and
community Conrad said. "We are also
planning on training the executive level
of each fraternity on their leadership
skills in hopes to strengthen each indi-

One event the IFC is working on
is organizing a Greek Fair where each
fraternity and sorority will have a differ-
ent game booth and all the money raised
will be donated to the booths' philan-
thropy.
"We're not just here for the stu-
dents but for the community as well
Terrell said.
Another idea for next Fall is a plan
to station several members from each
fraternity at various residence halls to
help on-campus students move into their
new rooms. ECU has 17 fraternities and
each holds something different for ev-
eryone.

Say hello to the new East Carolinianl Today is our debut issue of a fresh, improved
layout. We've worked long and hard this year to bring you the timeliest and most accurate
information source, and today's paper is the result of great consideration and deliberation
to provide an up-to-date, visually pleasing product.
As managing editor for this newspaper, 1 know firsthand just how diligently our staff
works. The people here are devoted to serving you, our campus community. Let me speak
for the entire staff when I say that we truly listen to your criticisms.
Probably the most important thing for students, faculty, staff family and friends to
remember is that The East Carolinian (TEC) is completely student-run. We go to classes
and then we go to work, much like the rest of the campus. Our hours fluctuate, and it's
not always fun and games. Sometimes we're up here until as late as 6 a.m. (God help us
alland sometimes we're scrambling out the door at 8:30 p.m. That can be tough on
the ol' GPA, but we realize there are a lot of other students working much the same
schedules. , ,
The difference is that we're in the spotlight. And it gets rough when all we get back
are negative responses. Just like many of you out there, we work hard at what we do.
Sometimes we're going to make mistakes, and sometimes they're going to be big. (One
rule of thumb - just spell Eakin correctly!)
Most likely, however, we're going to make - as my grandmother says incessantly -
"learning mistakes That's OK, because that's what we're here to do: learn.
I encourage all our readers to help us out. Please call if we attribute a quote to your
pet parakeet instead of you. Please write when we fill this space here with an opinion that
you just don't agree with. But please call and write when we print a feature that makes
you laugh, a story that really personifies the ECU spirit, or a picture that says a million
words. i.T
We're here to inform you, the campus community. But we can t do it alone. Weicome
to the new TEC. Don't be a stranger. JjjQjjJuJLi. i?iok

Racism: A dead-end street
Low standards cost money
$14 billion lost
to student loon
defaults
Chris Arlir.e
Staff Writer
I recall my first meeting with
my junior high school counselor Mrs.
Beverly. We were planning out my
course selections. The conversation,
however, eventually digressed to what
my future education plans were. One
of the first things she mentioned was
that college was not for everyone.
The reason I bring up this en-
counter is quite simple: Until recently.
I was not aware of how right she was.
Okay, I will admit that everyone
can stand to gain something from
higher education. However, a college
setting may not be for everyone to
seek it There are far too many stu-
dents who clearly do not belong. Yet
college and the Federal Government
continues to encourage it
Let's start with the final decid-
ing factor as to whether or not a stu-
dent is able to attend college or not
money, and can they afford or not The
U.S. Department of Education annu-
ally administers $6 billion in college
tuition grants and $15 billion in guar-
anteed loans. All as "entitlements"
with non specific academic require-
ments, only financial need.
Unfortunately, many recipients
of these grants are not ready for col-
lege, which raises the question of how
did they get there? If a college does
not require high school graduation for
enrollment, its students can get fed-
eral tuition grants and loans without
having a high school diploma or
equivalency degree.
This raises the question of how
are they going to be disciplined
enough to handle college if they could
not make it in high school? Unfortu-
nately, the truth of the matter is they
can't Many students can't hack it and
that ends up costing the government
money. "How much money?"
From 1988 to 1993, $14 billion
was lost to student loan defaults.
Those without a high school diploma
comprise over 50 percent of that num-
ber.
Remember the good old days
when you could actually fail classes.
Well, not anymore. Late in the 1960s
many students and professors started
viewing grades as artificial measure-
ments and irrelevant encumbrances in
the anything-goes culture.
In the early 1970s, Stanford
University allowed students to drop
classes right up until the final exam.
Wouldn't that be great? Wait, it gets
even better. They also abolished D's
and F's.
Recently Stanford has decided
to reincorporate the F's. Think they
are enforced? Less than 10 percent
even make anything less than a B the
whole time they are there.
The University of Virginia's Law
School has decided to smell a little of
the Colombian as well. They recently
initiated a B-mean policy. It says that
professors have to give their classes
an average of B grade. Does anyone
think that the students will sue?
These are days many students
are saying "I pay so much to go here,
you can't give me D's and F's. Ah, so
now grade inflation is an acceptable
form of consumer fraud.
The solution to these problems
are simple. A standardized minimum
test should be implemented in order
to qualify for grants and loans. Hey it
would be in line with the new Goals
2000 Educate America Act. It seems
to me that anything that would help
a government act actually work for
once and save billions of dollars would
be a good idea. If someone can't do
the wprk keep them out of the class-
room.
Solution number two.is even
simpler. Simply start handling our
appropriate grades. If I perform a test
at C quality then give me a C. Don't
inflate it to a door prize B. It is time
that ethics played a bigger role in
awarding merit than sympathy.
Racism issues
in Higher
Learning
Angela McCullers
Staff Writer
Racism on college campuses is
a growing national problem. John
Singleton brings this issue to the
public's attention in his new film
"Higher Learning In Singleton's
movie, the racist attitudes of some
of the students and police officers at
Columbus University, followed by
their racist behaviors, brought about
racial problems on their campus. Vio-
lence was used to solve their prob-
lem-which ultimately led to the
death of three students.
Racism is the name we attach
to the activities of people who be-
lieve that one race of people is "natu-
rally" superior to another.
In one scene, Malik Williams
(Omar Epps) confronts a skinhead
played by Michael Rappaport, about
his behavior. Malik feels that the
skinhead has been "walking around
campus calling him a nigger in his
head
Many of the students in the
movie did not profess their racist ide-
ologies and views openly. Racism is
more than attitudes or feelings. We
do not have to look into the hearts
of our peers to find racism. We can
look at their actions. Racism is a state
of mind, a set of values and a con-
stellation of behaviors that has been
passed down from generation to gen-
eration.
You do not have to confront a
person who you feel is racist in -or-
der to make them confess to their
personal racial bias. What will be
solved?
What will you accomplish by
doing that? The individual will con-
tinue to be a racist after you have
confronted him or her. Their atti-
tudes and beliefs are not going to
change solely because you have dis-
covered their true feeling about other
races. Without positive change there
can be no progress.
Racism is a dead-end street,
leading to frustration and hatred of
others. It is a cancerous phenomenon
that lurks in every cranny of Ameri-
can society. Many people have suf-
fered damage to their self-esteem due
to the ugly ramifications of racism.
Self-esteem is a must for sheer sur-
vival.
Do not wait until you are older
to feel the need to improve the rela-
tionship of the races. We, as young
adults, stand a better chance of ulti-
mately eliminating racism in our
country if we begin to do something
about it now. I am not saying that
racism will disappear overnight. That
is not going to happen. Racism may
not disappear in the next one hun-
dred years. r,
We must start with oui children
that we will some day have. We mtf$t
teach them that a person can not r)e
judged on their nationality or their
race, but on their personality and thejr
ability to get along with others.

Letters to the

To the Editor:
The tragic loss of one of our
most promising young biology stu-
dents underscores the need to pro-
vide an elevated cross-walk over the
10th street raceway. Daily, the health
and lives of students, faculty, and
staff are jeopardized as they negoti-
ate traffic in and around university
grounds. It is so obvious to every
pedestrian, another senseless acci-
dent is destine to occur along 10th
street in front of Brewster Building.
For a fraction of the funds spent on
sports arenas, bowling alleys, and
snack bars, the university cross-walk
could be designed that encourages
usership. On campus, pedestrians
should have the right-of-way. how-
ever, vehicles rarely yield to pedes-
trians. Proper signage and enforce-
ment could help to alleviate this prob-
lem. Certainly, past and present uni-
versity administrations have consid-
ered these options but for some rea-
son could not justify construction or
action. Please reconsider.

Step into the Alley
Owner makes
big impression
Meredith Langley
Assistant Lifestyle Editor
immmmmmmmmmmmmmmnmmmmmmmam
How many of you faithful read-
ers knew that CD Alley came to
Greenville because Sean McCrossin,
the owner, moved here to be closer to
the girl of his dreams? Even though
she's not around anymore. Sean him-
self decided to stay behind. Many of
you already know this man. Why else
would you be sporting the newest CD
Alley T-shirt design?
Sean brought his store to
Greenville about six years ago when
he moved here from Kill Devil Hills (a
small coastal town here in North Caro-
lina). As stated previously, he came
here to be with his girlfriend and also
because a record store was a risky
business venture in a tourist town.
Since the store opened, Sean
has had nothing but sweet success.
his business growing steadily from
day one. At first, however, he was
worried that the store wouldn't fly
because ol ail the competition. So
Sean lived off of the money he made
by bar-tending and invested all of the
profit made by CD Alley back into
the store.
This proved to be a very wise
business decision, because he has
now expanded the store to almost if
not more than twice the size that it
was and has increased his stock by
25percent
CD Alley now carries music
that caters to all musical fantasies,
ranging from punk to beach music
to classical. When asked why he
opened the store here in Greenville
he simply said. "For the love of mu-
sic, and to learn more about the mu-
sic world So. what's next for this
music lover?
A record company is on his
front burner as we read. Sit & Spin
Records will be one of the first record
companies coming out of Greenville
that will feature alternative music
and other musical styles. Sean's de-
sire to get good music to the people
and turning them on to new sounds
has already made his store success-
ful and he thinks it will be a good
formula for mixing up a record label.
He waiats to start off small by releas-
ing some 7-inch singles and maybe a
full length album if interest in the
band in uuestion is high. This strat-
egy is to get credibility and good sales
for him and to give the bands a great
opportunity to get some exposure
into the mainstream.
Sean's knowledge has turned
some of the greatest musical fuddy-
duddies in town on to some great
music. He also has this uncanny abil-
ity to find that certain record, tape
or CD that you've been looking for,
even if that means he has to special
order it for you. An easy- going man.
he is always friendly and helpful to
the customer and so are his employ-
ees. The world needs more people
with his knowledge and the creativ-
ity to make a record store like CD
Alley fly.

Singing Plaid
The Four Plaids return from the
grave to give one last show
"A Drop in the Bucket" is
just what it claims to be: a very
tiny drop in the great screaming
bucket of American media opinion.
Take it as you will.
Okay, so we all know that
Greenville's nightlife sucks. You
can go get drunk at this bar or
that bar. You can watch the same
stupid fights break out over the
same stupid crap, or the same
sleazy pick-up lines lead to the
same lame-ass drunken sexual li-
aisons between the same musky
sheets. You can be really lame and
participate in the above activities.
Or you can do all of the above to
the beat of any of the same three
rotating rosters of bands that mill
through the last three surviving
live-music clubs in town. Big fun.
And as an added attraction,
you can choke on the soup-thick
fog of a thousand cigarettes. And
while I'm on the subject. I'd like
to take a moment to make a note
to smokers. I have nothing against
your habit, honestly. I think smok-
ers should be able to light up any-
where that fire doesn't cause a se-
rious danger.
It's just that well, it's the
smell. Cigarettes stink. I mean,
they smell like they would cause
cancer, and that usually just pisses
me off. So couldn't you have the
decency to smoke something that
smells good, like a pipe? At least
then I might enjoy having my
lungs gunked up. Thanks.
Anyway, back to that sucky
Greenville nightlife. Sometimes it
seems like we have no choice but
to buy into the mass hallucination
that downtown is actually fun. So
we wade through the muck and
try to have a good time. That's
okay sometimes, but shouldn't
there be something else? 1 mean,
when you have to drink heavily to
even make a place seem bearable,
I think it's time for a change.
Thankfully, there are alter-
natives to the bar scene. We just
got a super-cool new coffee house
downtown, for instance. It's called
the Percolator, and it's sort of like
a bar. but there's less vomiting. It's

"Forever Plaid' is dedicated to
the 'good guys to the guys who
wheeled the projector carts for the
AV club; to the guys who saved their
allowances to give their parents a spe-
cial night for their anniversary; to the
guys who carried an extra handker-
chief: to the guys who never went
beyond first base, and if they did, they
didn't tell anyone
This dedication, hidden as it was
among the names of the "Forever
Plaid" staff in the program, was as
much a surprise as the show itself,
and no less amusing. The dedication,
with its deceptive simplicity, actually
reveals a great deal about the show. I
say the show was a surprise because,
quite honestly, I didn't know what to
expect from it at first. I was very skep-
tical. Was listening to four guys sing
songs thirty years older than I am
really the way I wanted to spend the
better part of Friday night'
Luckily, 1 didn't let my doubts
stop me from seeing the show From

John Frusciante
Niandra Lades
and Usually Just
a T-Shirt

When John Frusciante was one
of the original Red Hot Chili Peppers,
he and his bass counterpart. Flea,
broke much new ground in the un-
derground music of the eighties. Then
came the nineties and alternative be-
came the mainstream, the Chili Pep-
pers' Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic was a
smash hit and suddenly they were
touring the world. During their tour
of Japan. Frusciante decided he had
had enough. He left the band in the
height of their fame and moved back
to Los Angeles to live in happy ob-
scurity. The Chili Peppers got a new
guitar player and continued with busi-
ness as usual.
After leaving the band.
Frusciante began to experiment with
painting and music. The painting
failed but the music for the album
Xiandra Lades was recorded, of
which he was particularly proud. He
soon fell into a trance-like creative
state where he would stay up for days
painting and creating music. The fi-
nal result of all of this is his new al-
bum Xiandra Lades and Usually Just
A T-Shirt.
1 guess you could call this an
experimental album. It is full of
strangely distorted guitars, off the
wall licks and some very unconven-
tional studio tricks. The opening
track is a strange mixture of acous-
tic and distorted electric guitar: it
seems to be an almost random place-
ment of notes at times. Most of the
tracks repeat this formula: acoustic
guitar laying down the basic rhythm
and electric plucking out the part
usually filled by the lead guitar, but
I'm not really sure if you could call
this a lead. At times it seems to be
off-key improvisations or even just a
random choice of sounds; John Cage
comes to mind.
"Big Takeover" has a plucky
mandolin sound and strange avant
garde lyrics like "the world is full its
own emissions and another Nazi
tent Then there is "Curtains which
contains only a strange piano melody
and even stranger lyrics: "the world
is a sphere no larger than the balls
that you suck
Then there is "Running Away
Into You This one takes weirdness
to another level. The studio effects
are somewhere in the realm of drugs
or madness. The acoustic strumming
is back, but I haven't a clue where
most of the noise is coming from.
Some of the songs sound al-
most normal and at times his vocals
sound much like his old friend An-
thony Kiedas. But for the most part
this is a very strange album; maybe
this is a product of fame. Who
knows? Most of the songs are short,
lasting on an average of three min-
utes each and some are less than two
minutes. This is basically an experi-
mental album. If he didn't already
have a name for himself I doubt any
label would have picked this up;
strangely enough, this is on the big-
time record business American label.
There are 25 tracks on this re-
lease, a culmination of two years of
work. Despite the outright weirdness
of this release it is in some way ap-
pealing, almost refreshing. Guitar
World reviewed this CD and the re-
viewer decided that he had cracked.
This may be true, but you have got
to give the guy credit for pushing the
limits. If you are looking for the Chili
Pepper's trademark funk-metal
sound you will not find it here.
Frusciante uses neither funk nor
metal or anything that can be cat-
egorized. I recommend this if you are
looking for something completely
different, because as far as I know
this CD is one of a kind.

beginning to end. "Forever Plaid" was
a delight to watch. The play centers
around four guys who form a musical
group, and yet it's about a lot more.
To me. "Forever Plaid" was about the
passing of an era, about a decade in
which musical harmony was alive and
well in the form of groups such as
The Four Aces, The Four Freshmen,
and the mythical Four Plaids.
The plot is simple, and although
far fetched, does not take away from
the wonderful musical selections that
make the show a hit. As the show
opens, the audience learns that the
members of the Four Plaids were
killed in a car crash on their way to
pick up new plaid tuxedo jackets for
their first big show by a bus filled with
Catholic teens or. their way to see the
Beatles debut on the Ed Sullivan
Show. The teenagers were miracu-
lously unharmed, but the Plaids never
got to do their show.
Now. however, "through the
power of harmony and the expanding

tion with the positions of the planets

bad. I just might be able to get into
this stuff. To be completely honest
from the beginning, 1 was a bit
nervous about listening to a
band called Dink - I tend to be
more of a classic rock listener
with, of course, a few exceptions.
As the tape slid into the tape
deck, a mild form of fear set in.
The first words heard on Dink's
new self-titled album are atten-
tion grabbers, to say the very
least. And surprisingly enough,
the rest of the album is refreshingly
noticeable as well.
Dink, the "small, insignificant"
band based in Kent. Ohio, began their
climb into the music world at Kent
State back in 1990 by playing the
Kent-Cleveland-Akron club circuit and
releasing a self-titled five song EP
Like their Kent predecessors Nine
Inch Nails and Ministry. Dink takes
the alternative approach to music,
only they add a new retro-80s twist
They possess a sort of industrial
techno-early-80s-grunge-metal sort of
style which, combined with an intense
drum back beat and raging guitars,
form an incredible sound explosion
that forces people to sit up and listen.
Rob Lightbody and Jer Herring com-
bine their strong voices into an almost
Nine Inch Nails Henry Rollins in-your-
face sound that is uncommon with
most new alternative bands, but which
is an overdue and welcome change.
The boys play well together, as is made
?UK
obvious on nearly every track on the
album.
"3 Big Bags" and "Green Mind"
are musically two of the best songs
on the album. Jeff Finn fills the back-
drop of each song with a more con-
structed, slowed down Sex Pistols
thrash bass line. Combined with Jan
Eddy Van der Kail's throbbing drums
and Sean Carlin's wild guitar. Dink
has found a way to expa'ss their views
on urban decline (same old story as
most artists of today) without being
depressing or overly dramatic. "Run-
ning Red" also pulsates with an in-
tense bass line and pseudo-techno
rhythms that make Dink good driv-
ing music for road trips or great club
music. "Rocks" and "Dirt" are also
decent songs with many similarities
to "Bags "Mind" and "Red includ-
ing bass line, drums and a few of the
guitar riffs.
The album does have a few
downfalls, however. The
song "Angel" bears a fright-
ening resemblance to
Prince's lame theme song
from the Batman movie,
and "Get On It" sounds like
2 Live Crew's old pop hit
"It Takes Two Lyrically,
Dink tends to be a bit inane
- the song "In Her Head"
consists mostly of the re-
peated phrase "Mary Trery
hopes and fears - she drank lots and
lots of beers Not anything excep-
tional, but rather funny if nothing else.
Dink's first full length album
has surprised nearly everyone who
has heard it. If you have the chance
to check it out, go for it. Dink is on
the cutting edge of something new
and wild. Besides, how bad can open
sexual intercourse be?

Big shoes are filled by Little Women
Despite Winona Ryder, the fourth film version of Alcott's novel lives up to the 1933 original
Ike Shibley
Staff Writer
I will be the first to admit that
one of my favorite Katherine
Hepburn films is the 1933 version
of Little Women, which was di-
rected by George Cukor. Hepburn
glows as Josephine March and the
rest of the cast is equally splendid.
The film is a cinematic masterpiece.
Thus when I heard that Little
Women was being filmed for a
fourth time I groaned audibly.
"Why thought I, "tinker with per-
fection?" The 1933 version per-
fectly told the story of the March

sisters and their life in Concord,
Massachusetts. A new version
would have nothing to offer.
Much to my surprise, the new-
est filming of Louisa May Alcott's
timeless story provides a cinematic
treat. Though the newest film does
not beat the 1933 version, it does
boast a splendid cast with a lovely
setting, all told with a gentle, femi-
nine touch by Australian director
Gillian Armstrong (My Brilliant Ca-
reer).
Winona Ryder plays the cen-
tral character Jo, who Hepburn so
jauntily portrayed. Ryder will surely
get nominated for an Academy
Award, but she certainly lacks the
vivacity and charm of Hepburn. Per-
haps the comparison is unfair, but
Ryder wants to become a serious

actress as judged by her roles in
The Age of Innocence, Reality
Bites and Dracula. If judged by the
same criteria as the best actresses
of cinema, both yesterday and to-
day, Ryder pales in comparison. Be-
cause Jo has a feminist sensibility
and a likely stubborn side, she is a
wonderfully complex character. But
Ryder brings nothing to the role
and seems to be acting with only a
half-hearted effort. I still have never
been able to see Ryder in a role, I
always see her as an actress trying
hard to play a role.
Aside from my criticisms of
Ryder, I loved every aspect of Little
Women. The other three sisters are
played by Trini Alvarado (Meg),
Claire Danes (Beth) and Kristin
Dunst (Amy) with Samantha Mathis
playing the older Amy. Dunst shows
signs of being a superb actress with
this role and her role in Interview
with the Vampire now to her credit.
Alvarado and Danes become Meg
and Beth and make the audience
really care about them. Perhaps the
role of Jo needed to be filled by a
lesser-known actress so that the
audience did not keep seeing the
celebrity Winona Ryder in the role.
Susan Sarandon does a magnificent
turn as Mrs. March. The feminist
stance of Mrs. March seems per-
fectly suited for Sarandon, yet
Sarandon never overplays the part
and instead allows the subtle nu-
ances of Mrs. March's personality
only slowly to surface.
Adding male support are
Christian Bale (Theodore
Lawrence) and Gabriel Byrne
(Friedreich). Lawrence woos Jo only
to be spurned and Friedrejch even-
tually captures Jo's heart as a
kindly tutor.
The real credit for this film
belongs to Armstrong. She seems
to know exactly how a family like
the Marches would have lived. The
clothes, the fires, the warm humor
shared within the family seem so
natural on the screen. The scenes

in the snow are especially beauti-
ful. Armstrong and screenwriter
Robin Swicord allow the story of
Little Women to develop gradually
like a quilt being sewn together.
Eventually all the pieces of the
story come together to make a
beautiful pattern that will linger in
the mind of the viewers.
The story itself exerts such a
profound effect that the viewer may
very well want to revisit, or visit for
the first time, the novel of the same
name. The tender story of love
within the March family resonates
for the ears of all ages and of any
time period. Looking at the strong
female characters one may assume
that Alcott was ahead of her time
in her thinking. When Jo turns
down one suitor, the audience ini-
tially balks at her choice but then
slowly realizes that Jo acts from a
position of strength. She does not
want to marry simply for the sake
of having a husband. The difference
between the sisters becomes appar-
ent, but Jo does not judge her sis-
ters badly because of their differ-
ences but instead embraces those
differences. Near the end of the
film, Friedreich tells Jo that the
book she has written has given him
a window to her soul. Likewise, the
film provides a window into the
soul of Alcott and, one may assume,
Armstrong.
Little Women is a film to be
embraced. I cannot say rush to see
the film because it demands no
rushing. Rather take the time to
spend some quality time with the
March sisters. Rarely does a cin-
ematic story get told with such
genuine poignance. Little Women
is not little accomplishment.
On a scale of one to ten, Little
Women rates an eight.

The East Carolinian
Camels, reindeer and bulls highlight Europe '95
Selcuk, a historic Turkish
town near the ancient city of
Ephesus, is the setting for one of
Europe's most unusual spectacles
- the Camel Wrestling Festival,
which starts today.
Area villagers enter only their
best beasts. Thousands of specta-
tors come to cheer as male camels,
docile except during the rutting
season, vie for a she-camel kept
within sniffing range. Between
bouts, souvenirs, handicrafts and
Turkish delicacies such as kebabs,
pide and raki are sold in tented
stalls.
Winners of each camel fight
move to the next round until there
are two finalists. When all of the
kicking, biting, spitting - and no
harm - is done, the dominant camel
is treated like a king. So is his
owner, who celebrates by donating
cash prizes to his village to help
pay for education and for care of
the poor and elderly.
The Camel Wrestling Festival
kicks off a year-long calendar of
events among the 26 member na-
tions of the European Travel Com-
mission. Though it's too late to see
the camels, you may want to sched-
ule your travels to coincide with
one or more of the highlights.
On the animal theme, rein-
deer racing is featured at Sweden's
Jokkmokk Sami Market, celebrating
its 390th year on Feb. 2-5. Thou-
sands of Sami, reindeer herders in
Northern Scandinavia, gather at
Jokkmokk, a town on the Arctic
Circle, to sell traditional crafts, in-
cluding baskets, weavings, clothes
made from reindeer skin, pewter
jewelry, and knives with handles
made of etched reindeer horn. Sami
delicacies - dried reindeer meat,
fresh fish and special breads - are
served.
Better known is the annual
Running of the Bulls during
Spain's San Fermin Festival, this
year July 6-14. Thousands of men
and women risk their lives trying
to outrun a herd of charging bulls
ultimately corralled for fights in the
Pamplona bullring.
Sweden highlights other
forms of competition at the World
Championships in Athletics, this
year Aug. 4-13 in Goteborg. More
than 2,700 athletes from 200 coun-
tries compete, making only the
Summer Olympics and World Soc-
cer Championships bigger. Street
shows and performances at the
city's new opera house are also fea-
tured.
The arts are in focus in Lux-
embourg, designated European
City of Culture for 1995. Events
throughout the year include classi-
cal music, ballets and operas, jazz
and rock concerts, theater and pan-
tomime
Similarly, Great Britain's year-
long Festival of Arts and Culture
features 500 separate music, drama.
dance and film festivals, plus exhib-
its, architectural and garden tours
scheduled in London, Birmingham.
Manchester, Cardiff and other cit-
ies.
Monaco's Printemps Des Arts
de Monte-Carlo (Spring Arts Festi-
val), celebrating the 25th year since
its founding by Princess Grace, pre-
sents leading music and ballet en-
sembles, plus special dramatic and
cabaret performances from April
15-May 17. It includes Ballets de
Monte-Carlo, Stuttgart Chamber
Orchestra and a production of Eu-
gene Ionesco's "The Chairs
Poland's Chopin Interna-
tional Piano Competition, once ev-
ry five years, is set for Oct. 1-21
in Warsaw. On Oct. 17. celebrations
at Holy Cross Church will mark the
146th anniversary of the
composer's death. Additionally, the
Polish National Tourist Office will
help you follow a Chopin trail
throughout the country, stopping
at Duszniki-Zdroj, a resort near the
Sudety Mountains, among other
places.
For flower-lovers, Belgium
presents the Ghent Floralies, also
once in five years. From April 22-
May 1, a profusion of plants, flow-
ers and shrubs is presented by
world growers to an international
jury and the public. During the
same period, Greenhouses of the
Royal Palace at Laeken, a Brussels
suburb, are open to the public. Visi-
tors may stroll along nearly a mile
of paths through landscaped gar-
dens.
For history buffs. Belgium
marks the 180th anniversary of the
Battle of Waterloo and the defeat
of Napoleon by British and allied
forces. The June 17-18 event in-
cludes re-enactments of the battle
and historic processions.
The 1000th anniversary of
Norway's christening will be cel-
ebrated June 2-5 at Mosterhamn, a
historic hamlet on the small island
of Bomlo near Bergen. Special ser-
vices, concerts and historic plays
are planned at Moster Church,
Norway's 1.000-year-old church.
Additional commemorative con-
certs, ballets and exhibitions will
be presented throughout Norway in
July and August.

J perform a musical revue that would
make any music fan long for the days

out of the "Plaids Go Calypso" seg-
j ment, "Day-O" and "Kingston Market
"Moments to Remember "Day-

? sung by Jinx, played by Gilles
Chiasson. Chiasson has an extremely
versatile and powerful voice. It's no
wonder that out of 22 songs, he sings
the lead in seven.
While Chiasson definitely had
the best voice of the four, no one had
l better stage presence than Neil
"Nash, who portrayed Frankie. His
"character's excellence was not surpris-
ing considering his impressive resume,
which consists of roles in "Cyrano de
Bergerac "A Midsummer Night's
Dream and "The Gift of the Magi
The other cast members, Mark
Martino (Smudge) and Stephen
Wallem (Sparky), were fun to watch,
although not quite as spectacular as
Chiasson and Nash. Wallem does a
respectable job as the stereotypical
"dumb jock For example, at one
point in the show Frankie tells
Smudge that Sparky is busy writing
the words to "Perfidia" on his hand.
While this was a good idea as far as
character development goes. I felt that
his surreptitious glances at his hand
were far too obvious to be considered
successful. As for Martino s perfor-
mance, he unfortunately wasn't fea-
tured enough for me to form a solid
opinion about either his voice or his
acting ability. I did enjoy his rendi-
tion of "16 Tons but it was almost
run over by Frankie's 'Chain Gang

My favorite parts of the show
occurred in the second half, and credit
for their success should go equally to
the cast as well as the writerdirec-
tor Stuart Ross. The first was a sing-
along to the song "Mathilda" with
Christmas lights and glowing bananas
for that perfect calypso setting. The
second was the Plaids' rendition of
The Ed Sullivan Show - "in three
minutes and eleven seconds During
that three minutes the Plaids become
jugglers, trained seals, vikings, flame
eaters, accordion players and puppe-
teers, all to the tune of "Lady of
Spain Both scenes had the audience
rolling in the aisles and added that
much more to an already good per-
formance.
"Forever Plaid" was a great
show. It was fun to watch and to lis-
ten to. The actors gave energetic and
enjoyable, if not perfect, performances.
The set and costume designs were
appealing. Out of 10 stars, "Forever
Plaid" rates a seven.

a more laid-back atmosphere, where
you can pretend to be a beat poet
for an evening, or just relax and feel
really cool while you nurse a big-ass
cup of coffee.
And then, of course, there's al-
ways Wal-Mart. Those of us with cars
can spice up our lives with a trip into
the wondrous land of Wal-Mart late-
night. If you've never experienced
this spectacle, it's time you did. Staff
is low, customers are few, and chaos
reigns! I've seen toy gunfights in the
feminine hygiene section and guys
test-riding bikes around the store.
And there's all sorts of fun
games you can play, like "Security
Hunt where you act suspiciously
and lead Wal-Mart rent-a-cops on a
wild goose chase. My favorite Wal-
Mart game, however, is "Bait the
Psycho Here's how you play: find a
scary loner and follow him around
until he snaps (just hope he doesn't
lose it in Hardware)!
Or, of course, you could just
sit around somebody's front yard and
throw hammers at fresh melons.
But even with these swell dis-
tractions, we still need more variety
here in the Emerald City. Late night
putt-putt golf might do well, for ex-
ample (hey. bowling caught on, so
why not?). But what would really be
cool would be a Midnight
Moviehouse. the kind of place that
shows old cult movies on weekends.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
would probably be huge here, for
example, but the possibilities are
endless. There's 60 or 70 years of
movies out there that could draw an
audience.
I know I would pay to see Alien
or Bladerunner on the big screen.
Alfred Hitchcock films like Psycho
would also be good, as well as stutt
like Reservoir Dogs, the first movie
from Pulp Fiction writerdirector
Quenton Tarantino. That film was an
independent release, and never made
it to a lot of cities. But now that
Tarantino is a big name, Dogs could
be a nice money-maker. And what
about 3-D movies? There are a ton of
movie buffs in Greenville, and an old
theatre like the Park downtown
could make some money off this.
At any rate. I think it's past
time that we had something more to
do than get drunk around here. Sure,
it's fun. but even (especially?) alco-
hol gets old after a while. Or am I
just getting jaded?

The East Carolinian
ECU falls in overtime
JMU spoils
dedication party
71-69
Eric Bartels
Staff Writer
It was more a sense of frustra-
tion and confusion than anything else
for the record breaking crowd of 7,611
on hand in Williams Arena for the
dedication as they watched the East
Carolina Pirates come up short to the
James Madison University Dukes in
overtime, 71-69.
"It was a tremendous effort
with an unjust ending ECU coach
Eddie Payne said. "We came back-
we had to fight and claw our way back,
but we played well
After a Kent Culuko missed
shot in the lane over ECU guard Skipp
Schaefbauer, Culuko hustled for his
miss and dropped-in the game win-
ner with :00.6 left ECU called a time-
out to set up a designed inbounds
play.
Pirate forward Chuckie
Robinson took the inbounds pass
from forward Tim Basham at the top
of key, and put up the game tying shot
with less than :00.3, forcing a second
overtime.
However, the mid-court official
denied that the shot was good, get-
ting a big sigh of relief from JMU's
coach. "Lefty" Driesell and the Dukes,
while FJi:c ! tii insisted on kick-
ing tc score ubie.
Ur.eseB's response to his teams'
victory was rather nonchalant
"It was a good game. We let
them back in it, but won it in the end
Driesell said. "These are great games
(in the CAA), but it all comes down to
the CAA tournament
A dismal first half that saw the
Pirates perimeter shooting gather a
weak 34 percent from the field while
the Dukes were reluctant to miss (55
percent), ended with the Pirates trail-
ing by four in the second half, as fresh-
man Tony Parham (14 points) scored
the first five points, as the Pirates ral-
lied behind his shooting, and the in-
side game of Chuckie Robinson (18
points). At one
point, ECU overcame a twelve point
deficit on the shooting of senior for-
ward Anton Gill (15 points), and the
bench' play of Vic Hamilton who
added four points.
As the Pirate fans became more
intense, the second half intensified.
Both teams would look to their pre-
mier players to hit important baskets.
Senior guard Kent Culuko hit
a three-pointer with 9:26 left in the
game, but would be answered by a Tim
Basham three of his own to cut the
lead to one.
Sophomore guard Skipp
Schaefbauer nailed a baseline three
point basket to even the game at 57-
57 with 6:24 left
The Pirates would trail late,
until forward Anton Gill hit a clutch
three point shot with :26 remaining.
"I'm a Senior, and I am sup-
posed to make shots like that Gill
said, who responded to his game ty-
ing shot.
The regulation ended dead-
locked as JMU's uuard Darren
McLinion attempted a three point
shot from the top of the key with time
running down.
The power and quickness of
senior forward Louis Rowe, CAA's
leading scorer, was not a factor due
to the tremendous defensive effort by
Tim Basham, who heid the JMU player
to 14 points.
It looked as it ECU would hang
on to the lead in overtime as Louis
Rowe, last weeks' CAA player of the
week, committed his fifth personal
foul with 4:14 remaining. However,
Rowe's replacement, Ryan Culicerto
sank an important three pointer from
the right side with 1:24 on the clock.
"Rowe is our go-to guy in close games,
and he is a big force JMU coach
Driesell said.
The older and more mature JMU
team took advantage of ECU's youth
and mistakes and capitalized with
control late in the overtime period.
With a combination of misses
from both Tim Basham from the three
point line and Chuckie Robinson un-
derneath with three JMU players all
over him, JMU grabbed the loose ball
and called a time-out.
Driesell looked to get the ball
in the hands of his star guard, Culuko,
the games leading scorer and best
three point shooter (50 percent), as
time ran down. Under :07 remaining
Culuko followed his miss with the
game winning tip.
"Any lose in the conference is
tough Schaefbauer said. "The play-
ers decide the games this is college
basketball at its best"
On the season, the Pirates
dropped their second straight in the
conference 0-2,(8-5) and will look to
revenge an early season lose against
Campbell as they piay host Monday
evening.
"We have to continue to work
hard in practice, and take one game
at a time senior forward Anton Giil
said.

Swimmers make splash
Women sweep Duke and American, men split meets
Eric Bartels
Staff Writer
For the Pirate swim teams,
1994 ended on a good note with a
two-team thrashing of Duke Univer-
sity. However, the season wasn't
complete, and a tough conference
schedule resumed on Saturday
against American.
On Saturday January 14. the
ECU swimmers hosted the Ameri-
can University in a dual meet that
saw the Lady Pirates dominate a
small women's team, while the men
were overpowered by an older
E4les' team.
The Piuie charge was led by
juniors' Hilary Xokes and Jackie
Schmiedcr. who rolled to an impres-
sive 8-0 (3-0 in CAA). Stokes was
very impressive at home, with first

Women's track looks promising
(SID)-On Saturday, ECU's
women's track team opened their
indoor season with a second-place
finish at the Virginia Tech Quad
Meet. The Lady Pirates placed sec-
ond behind Appalachian State, who
outsccored ECU 120.5-115.5.
ECU freshman Michelle
Clayton won the shot put with a
personal-best 40'8.75 and placed
second in the weight throw with a
school-record 44'8.25
Lady Pirate Carla Powell
placed first in the 55m with a time
of 7.22. an ECAC qualifying time.
The ECU women's track team
entered the '95 season with 33
members, 22 of which are return-
ing from the '94 season. The Lady
Pirates finished second behind
George Mason in the CAA Champi-
onships last season and are expect-
ing another exceptional season. In
years 1990-1993, the team finished
fourth in the CAA, so 1994 served
as jump ahead for the Lady Pirates.
Among returning players for
ECU is All-American Dava Rhodes.
She placed eighth in the 10,000m
at the NCAA Championship last sea-
son. According to Head Coach
Charles "Choo" Justice, ECU plans
to attack with the depth in every
event. In quest for the title, the
Lady Pirates will attempt to unseed
some of the returning champions.
"ECU features the most all-
around team in the CAA with qual-
ity athletes in every event group
said Coach Justice.
Throws: The Lady Pirates
feature four versatile throwers who
hold the ability to earn big points
for ECU. Juniors Zina Briley,
Darlene Vick, and Kim Pakow.ski
are joined by freshman Michelle
Clayton. Briley, fourth in the CAA
in '94, and Clayton, are mainstays
in the shot-put. Pakowski, third in
the CAA last season, and Vick, third
in the CAA in '93, are discus pow-
ers. Clayton, Pakowski, and Briley
will take aim at breaking school
record with the hammer. Vick will
also throw the javelin.
Jumps: Sophomore Lave Wil-
son led ECU's jumpers last season
by qualifying for the ECACs in the
long and triple jump events, and
she currently holds the school out-
door triple jump record. Junior
Michelle Bullock, holder of the
ECU indoor triple jump record and
ECAC qualifier, returns to chal-
lenge Wilson to a friendly rivalry.
Sophomore Amanda Johnson takes
aim on the ECU outdoor long jump
record as she already holds the in-
door record. Johnson was second
in the CAA in the long jump and
qualified for the ECACs. Freshman
Saundra Teel joins former high
school rival Jennifer Murdoch to
bolster ECU's high jumping.
Sprints: Junior Carla Powell
returns with two second place fin-
ishes (100m, 200m) from the CAA
meet last season, and she qualified
for the ECACs two consecutive
years. Sophomore Amanda Johnson
(third in the CAA 100m) ran right
behind Powell. Junior Shantell
Carter is expected to excel in the
200m. Returnees Keisha Johnson
and Erica Green will face strong
competition from freshman Kim-
berly Rinkerman.

quarterback for the Pirates has decided
to leave the ECU football program and
will take a semester off from school and
work tor a construction company in At-

Hester visited East Tennessee
State, a highly competitive Division I-AA
school in Johnson City, Tennessee shortly
after the Liberty Bowl.

about football again, but it didn't" Hester

travelling east to become a Pirate.

"My senior year in high

Mendenhall Billiards Center
(AP) - In an effort to restart
the baseball strike talks, the owners'
negotiating team will meet Thursday
in Washington with special mediator
WJ. Usery.
A management official, speak-
ing on the condition he not be identi-
fied, confirmed the meeting Sunday.
The official said events of no great
significance were expected.
"It's just a meeting to look ev-
eryone in the eye and say, 'You've got
to get this settled for the good of the
country " the management official
said.
Owners broke off talks Dec. 22
and implemented their salary cap pro-
posal the following day. The sides
haven't met since.
Boston Red Sox chief executive
officer John Harrington, chairman of
management's negotiating committee,
has spent the past two weeks helping
formulate the rules for replacement
players that owners intend to hire for
spring training and the regular sea-
son. Baseball's ruling executive coun-
cil approved the rules Friday.
Union head Donald Fehr has
spent the past 10 days conducting
regional meetings with players. Fehr
will hold his seventh meeting Mon-
day at Caracas, Venezuela. The final
meeting of the tour is Wednesday at
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Usery was appointed by the
Clinton Administration Oct. 14 and
led the sides through five rounds of
bargaining in the following two
months. While he did cajole owners
into making two tax proposals, the
players' association said both plans
eventually would act like salary caps,
which owners didn't deny.
"We weren't the ones who cut
off talks Fehr said Saturday. "If they
have something to say to us, I'm sure
we'll hear from them
"Prime Time"
goes Bowl-ing
(AP) - Deion didn't invent atti-
tude, he just perfected it Then he im-
ported it to the West Coast and an or-
ganization in desperate need of some-
thing different
Once renowned for their cool and
their professionalism, the San Francisco
49ers had been unsettled and upset in
the NFC championship game twice in
succession by a brash Dallas team that
didn't respect its elders or their tradi-
tions.
Enter Deion, carrying enough at-
titude to inflate an organization all by
himself.
"This team was a great team, they
would have made the playoffs without
me. I was brought here for this ore
game. And here Sanders paused tor
dramatic effect, "we prevailed
Not just prevail, but prevail with
style. Deion taught the 49ers how to
strut He taught the Mormon quarter-
back to frolic and dance. He gave the
white-haired professor the thrill of his
coaching lifetime. And make no mistake
- this WAS part of the job description
- he pointed the organization back to
the Super Bowl.
In the aftermath of San
Francisco's 38-28 win over Dallas, proof
that Sanders' singular ideas about fash-
ion and his petulant peacock-like per-
sonality have influenced his newest
teammates - some might say infected
them - was everywhere.
As one celebration continued,
Steve Young, the former Brtgham
Young quarterback and descendant of
Brigham himself, was already looking
ahead to the real team party.
"Even for a Mormon guy Young
said, "I swear it's going to be fun
And talk about guys acting nutty.
Young looked at coach George Seifert
even less of a party animal than him-
self.
"Even George is loose Young
marveled, "and that's something
Of course, it wasn't only in the
locker room that Deion and the gospel
of don't-mess-with-me held sway over the
49ers.

And in between?
Let us count the ways Dallas lost
its cool.
There was the uncharacteristi-
cally high number of penalties (nine for
98 yards) called on the Cowboys. There
was the finger-pointing and waving,
dancing and raving taking place on
49ers sideline, much of it inspired by
the guys in the 'do rags - the scarlet
bandanas favored by Sanders as protec-
tion against helmet head, and now cop-
ied by almost a half-dozen teammates.

The East Carolinian
49ers enter Super
Bowl big favorites
(AP) - They come from the muck
and mud of northern California, seek-
ing the unprecedented. They are the resi-
dent NFL powerhouse, these San Fran-
cisco 49ers, and they look unstoppable.
Their opponent comes from the
sun and surf of southern California.
About the only thing likely to make the
San Diego Chargers comfortable at the
Super Bowl is the sun and surf of Mi-
ami.
Don't expect the 49ers to be very
hospitable. Las Vegas certainly doesn't
When the 49ers attempt to be-
come the first team to win five Super
Bowls on Jan. 29 at Joe Robbie Stadium,
they will enter as perhaps the biggest
favorite in the 29-year history of the big
game.
"The Super Bowl, in my opinion,
will be anticlimactic said 49ers presi-
dent Carmen Policy, whose team already
has been installed as a 19-point favorite
in some betting parlors. "It would be a
tragedy if we lose, but that's how big I
feel this win is
The 49ers' 38-28 victory over Dal-
las for the NFC championship Sunday
showed all the potency San Francisco
is blessed with. It displayed a certain
toughness the Niners lacked in losing
to the Cowboys the last two years. And
it exhibited the big play capabilities the
offense and defense have.
Michael Roxborough said the
spread hasn't been so big since the Bal-
timore Colts opened as 17-point favor-
ites over the New York Jets in Super
Bowl III. The Jets won the game 16-7.
"It's not that the Chargers are the
weakest team that has ever been in the
Super Bowl said Roxborough, the
oddsmaker who sets point spreads for
75 percent of Nevada's legal sports
books. "It's that the performance by the
49ers was totally devastating. We had
to set a line big enough so that the
sports books would get some money bet
on the Chargers
Why would anyone bet on a team
whose conference has lost 10 straight
Super Bowls: a team that is making its
Super Bowl debut; and a team that lost
to San Francisco 38-15 in December?
That was the last time the Charg-
ers lost however. And they have beaten
two pretty fair opponents. Miami and
Pittsburgh (17-13 in the AFC title game,
on the road, no less) to get this far.
"The San Diego Chargers are on
the move safety Stanley Richard pro-
claimed.
"This team will be ieady to play
added linebacker David Griggs. "it feels
great"
For the first time, both Super
Bowl teams play in the same state. For
the, uh, 100th time, or 1.000th. the NFC
team is considered awesome.
Nearly all the stars suit up for the
49ers: Steve Young. Jerry Rice, Deion
Sanders, Ricky Watters. Ken Norton -
shall we go on? The only Charger with
much renown is All-Pro linebacker Jun-
ior Seau, and he could be run ragged
by all of San Francisco's firepower.
"Nobody is going to come out and
walk through us. We're a professional
team, and you don't get to this level by-
being a pansy Chargers running back
Natrone Means said.
But the 49ers did just that on
Dec. 11. Young was 25-for-32 for 304
yards and two touchdowns, and Rice
caught 12 passes for 144 yards, joining
James Lofton and Steve Largent as the
only receivers with more than 13.000
career yards.
That victory was nice. But it
didn't compare to the NFC title win. And
it certainly wouldn't compare to what
the 49ers are expected to do in two
weeks.
"This is it it's the ultimate high
San Francisco safety Tim McDonald
said. "Just to get over this Dallas thing.
They (the 49ers) brought in a lot of play-
ers to make sure we would do that"
Now, they must do a little bit
more.

them. I didn't feel the same sense ? i team
that we haw here at ECU. It seemed like
their program lacks a lot of discipline.
Coach McKnight, their quarterback
coach, is a great guy. but I don't feel like
playing football right now. at East Ten-
nessee State or ECU
The quarterback from Loganviile.
Ga. would have been immediately eligible
under new NCAA transfer rules that let
a player compete right away and not sit
out. if he transfers down a level. Fast
Carolina is a Division l-A school, so any
player who transfers from here to a I-AA
school can play with out losing a year of
eligibility.
Chris came to our first team
meeting .and we were very excited about
him joining our program McKnight
said. " He left that next morning and went
home to Georgia. He said he was not
sure if he was going to return to East
Carolina or sit out the semester. He has
a great reputation as a pretty good foot-
ball player. We wish him a lot of success,
but Chris is definitely not going to be a
part of our football program
The option to return to ECU was
open for Hester and remain on scholar-
ship even after taking the visit
"Everyone said, 'just stay at ECU
and finish your education Hestw said.
"They djn't understand if you aren't
motivated to play, it is really hard to feel
right about being on a full ride. I just felt
like I was wasting my time. Even though
I was eligible to come back, my grades
aren't all that good
ECU head coach Steve Logan
was supportive of Hester regardless of
what he decided to do.
"I talked with Coach Logan for
about three hours Hester said. "We
talked about life - not just football,
judgements. He was more concerned
about Chris the person, not the foot-
ball player. He said that he would help
me to go to another school if that is
what I wanted, or I could come back to
ECU. He asked me if I wanted to go
with him to talk to a preacher, and i
agreed. I felt like 1 needed some spiri-
tual guidance right then. I wasn't at
peace with myself. I didn't feel like I was
living the way God would want me to
live
"I wouldn't say I'm saved but I
feel a lot better he said. "I asked God
to come in to my life and it feeb great.
Coach Logan is a good man who cares
about his players. People don't realize
it because they only see him as a loot-
hall coach, hut he can be your best friend
when you need help
Playing time was a defirvte fac-
tor in Hester's decision to leave as well.
After playing in five games (3 starts) in
place of injured starter Marcus Crandell
in 1993. Hester saw no game action this
season.
"Practicing hard all week and not
getting to play is kind of like working a
job and not getting paid Hester said.
"1 telt iike I did a good job when I was
out there
Hester completed 47 of 87
passes (54 percent) and threw for 444
yards in '93. His top statistical perfor-
mance came against UCF, the same
game in which Crandell broke his ankle.
He was voted the R.W. Moore "King of
the Gridiron Award after completing
17 of 23 passes for 216 yards and a
touchdown to beat the Knights.
The most impressive thing about
Hester's abilities, beside being an accu-
rate passer, were his toughness and lead-
ership qualities. Hester took several vi-
cious shots before and after the whistle
from the University of Washington de-
fense in the Pirates 35-0 loss to the Hus-
kies.
"I thought he was going to take
off his pads and have a big "S' on his
chest Ail-American UW defensive line-
man and current Los Angeles Ram
D'Marco Farr said. "We hit him as hard
as we could, and he just kept getting
up for more
"I feel proud of what I accom-
plished, but just playing a little wasn't
enough for me Hester said. "I wanted
to start Every guy who is a competitor
should want to start Marcus Crandell
is a great quarterback and I'm real proud
of him. 1 wish the best for him and the
program. Coach Logan has that team
realizing how to win. Hopefully, they
will continue to win
" I still have the desire to play,
but for now I'm going to work and come
back to school and finish up later. I am
going to miss ECU and all the people
there, but this was something i had to
do for my best interests. Football is not
the most important thing in my life
DEION from p. 13
Then there was the first San Fran
cisco interception by Eric Davis, a Deion
understudy. Even as Davis was making
way toward the end zone. Sanders came
back across the field to help Dallas
passer Troy Aikman to his feet Though
the TV cameras did not catch what
Deion said, the Cowboys quarterback
clearly could be seen mouthing back.
"Get away trom me
It set the tone for the rest of
Aikman's day.
"I was saying keep yur head up
Deion recalled, denying he had added
insult to injury. But a moment later.
Sanders recalled. "I just wanted him to
throw me one
"One in this case, meant an in-
terception, and Aikman eventually-
obliged. But even that didn't get Sand-
ers off his back.
Afterward, someone reminded
Sanders that he had penalized himself by
signing with San Francisco for less money
than any of the i ither teams that pursued
him offered. But Deion always said the
first condition of employment was play-
ing for a contender.
"This proves to me that it's all right
to dream again he said.
That's not to say the commercial
possibilities nave escaped him completely.
An incentive clause in Sanders' incentive-
laden contract guarantees him $750,000
for reaching the Super Bowl. A moment
later, perhaps brightening at that very
thought Deion looked straight at the cam-
era.
"It must be the money he said.
It was a plug lor his new rap video,
not the reason he came to San Francisco.
But like the strut it wasn't a bad throw-in.

where the Lady Pirates show great
depth. Junior Jennifer Kalanick re-
turns with school record in the high
hurdles. She finished 3rd in the
CAA last season and competed in
the ECAC's in the 55HH as a fresh-
man. Freshman Saundra Teel and
redshirt freshman Jenny Ayres will

the half-milers. Juniors Alexis Jacks
and Megan McGruder, sophomores
Sunshine Sandridge and Elizabeth

will also run the half mile.
McGruder, sophomore Cindy
Szymanski, and freshman standout
Emily Linnemeier will compete in
both the half mile and the 1500m.
Long Distance: AU-American
Dava Rhodes rewrote the record
book as a freshman. This year she
faces the challenge of trying to top
last years performances and again
should lead ECU to the national
level. Twin sister Tara Rhodes looks
to join Dava in the bid to return to
the NCAAs and both have an excel-
lent chance. Stacy Green returns
healthy to run the 1500m and
3000m after missing the last two
track seasons due to injury. Mel-
issa Bonelli and Melanie House are
also expected to contribute in vari-
ous distance events.
Relays
4x100: Juniors Carla Powell
and Shantell Carter, and Sopho-
more Amanda Johnson return off
the team that earned All-East hon-
ors last season. Look for the fresh-
man Saundra Teel to step into the
anchor position this season. These
runners will also compete in the
4x200m.
4x400: Several runners will
try for spots on this relay team.
Quarter milers Keisha Johnson,
Erica Green, and Kim Rinkerman
will battle for spots along with in-
termediate hurdlers Bader and
Kalanick. Half milers Hamilton and
Jacks are veterans of this relay and
are also possibilities.
4x800: Szymanski,
Hamilton, Jacks, and McGruder all
return this year from a team that
qualified for the ECAC Champion-
ships and set the school record in
the 4x800m. This season, action
from Linnemeier, S. Green, Spraker,
Sandridge, and Juras is expected in
this relay. These runners may
shuffle into and out of the lineups
to give ECU their best 4x800m and
Distance Medley lineups yet
The Lady Pirates will return
to action on Sunday, Jan. 22 at the

strong finishes were Elizabeth
Bradner, who won the 200-Back,
and Allison Lipp, who won the
1000-Free. Leading off the meet
were the 400-Medley Relay team
consisting of Amanda Atkinson,
Kim Field, Melissa Phillips, and
Hilary Stokes. The women finished
with a 135-77 victory.
"Everyone swam fast times -
American has a lot of depth and
strength ECU swim coach Rick
Kobe said. "Our women were able
to out-swim AU, but our men were
unable to come up with a victory
In the men's competition, the
only bright spot came when Jim
Broughal captured the 100 Free.
Other Pirates with strong perfor-
mances were Andy Wright and
McGee Moody both nabbing second
place in the 1000 Free and the 50
Free. However, the determination
was not enough for the younger
ECU team as they fell 141-97.
In a dual meet before the
Christmas break, ECU hosted Duke.
As the Lady Pirate team came
through with another opponent
thrashing, the men were somewhat
challenged by a weaker Duke team.
After a Pirate swimmer was dis-
qualified for an early start on the
last event (400-Free relay), the Pi-
rate swimmers took the victory by
a single point
The Ladies cruised (147-92)
and looked towards the Christmas
holiday as a chance to relax and pre-
pare for an obviously-grueling
month of CAA swimming.
Leading the ECU charge was
the 400-Medley Relay team of fresh-
men Amanda Atkinson and Kim
Fields, sophomore Michelle Phillips
and junior Hilary Stokes. Follow-

sensation Jackie Schmieder nar-
rowly beat out teammate Allison
Lipp for the 1000-Free victory.
Sophomore Bizzy Browne would
win the next race as she nudged out
teammate Kim Field for first place
in the 200-IM. Once
again, Michelle Phillips would con-
tribute to the Pirate point total by
easily taking the 200-Fly. Also,
freshmen Amanda Atkinson and
Sandra Ossmann would round out
the top qualifiers for the Lady Pi-
rates in both the 200-Back and 500-
Free.
Contributing to the Lady Pi-
rate onslaught and improving their
performances were freshmen Stacie
Haymes, who garnered the first
place finish in the 3M dive, and Lisa
McCoy, who took first in the 1M
dive.
The most chaotic moment of
the meet came in the last event The
400-Free Relay, where the team of
Adam Ciarla, Jim Broughal, John
Donovan and McGee Moody could
have captured the victory were dis-
qualified for a quick start However,
the men held on after mounting a
more than ten-point lead at one
point during the competition.
The men jumped out to an
early lead with a win by the 400-
Medley Relay team. Juniors McGee
Moody and Adam Ciarla, sopho-
more Chris Bembenek and fresh-
man Patrick Kesler comprised the
winning combination. Freshman
Andy Wright followed the Pirate
victory with an easy win in the
1000-Free. Keeping pace with the
first place finishers, senior John
Donovan cruised past a Duke swim-
mer and landed first place in the
200 IM.
The 'youth factor' was an ad-
vantage to Coach Kobe and the
men. Freshmen Jim Broughal and
Andy Wright swam well, as both
were victorious in the 100-Free and
the 500-Free. Sophomore Chris
Bembenek rounded out the Pirate
leaders as he completed the 200-
Back more than fifty seconds be-
fore the first Duke swimmer.
The Pirate diving team did ?
"hot fair as well, and finished sec-
ond in both the 3M and the IM
dives with Scott Kupec and
Stephen Barnes.
"It was an exciting meet be-
cause it came down to the last
event and fortunately, we were able
to win the meet said Pirate swim
coach Rick Kobe.
The Pirate swim team was
busy over the holidays as they trav-
eled to West Palm Beach, Florida
for their annual Christmas training
trip. Pirate swimmers averaged five
hours a day in the pool and over
90,000 meters in the eight day trip.
The Pirates met North East Mis-
souri State University in an exhibi-
tion scrimmage on January 3 in
order to maintain their competitive
edge.
"Our main goal of the trip is
to focus on the upcoming CAA Con-
ference Championships Kobe said.
Kobe and the Pirate swim-
mers will look to the Richmond Spi-
ders on Saturday, January 21 at
Minges Aquatic Center to regroup
and make gains on the CAA.

has continually given what it could to better the ECU Greek system.
Delta Sig is based on three simple, but loyal principles: Leadership,
Scholarship, and Brotherhood. Brotherhood is a phenomenon that
can be felt and witnessed much better than it can be explained. It is
a deep friendship with men who can always be depended upon to
help when there is a need, and to be there to share the experience
of self growth in the incrediblv complex world of college life.
