Caution: do not pet the dogs.
At least not if the dog is wearing a
harness and Is obviously being used by
a visually-impaired individual as a see
ing-eye dog.
Nancy Badger, who is visually-im-
paired, recently began work at the Coun-
seling Center. When she arrived to be-
gin her job. her dog Heidi came with
her. Badger wanted for the campus popu-
lation to know that a dog such as Heidi
needs to be treated differently than most
dogs seen on campus, who are pets.
Badger says she understands that
Heidi is a beautiful dog and it is natural
tor people to want to pet her and talk to
her. but such actions keen the dog from
doing her job.
"When (Heidi) has her harness on,
that means that she's at work, and she
shouldn't be distracted by other people.
Otherwise, what will happen is she'll lose
her training, and she won't pay atten-
tion to her surroundings. It's a safety is-
sue, not only for me. but for her as well
Badger said.
Another hazard for herself and her
dog. Badger pointed out are the dogs
who run loose on campus, with or with-
out their owner around.
"A loose dog will go up to a work-
ing dog. get in that dog's path, follow
the dog. and create all sorts of problems.
Heidi has actually been attacked by a
loose dog Badger said.

NC State student government president's role questioned
Acting Senator Keith Crawford of the NC State Student Senate
proposed at a recent meeting that members of the Student Govern-
ment should be banned from also having a position on the Student
Media Authority. He said that the distinction between government
and media had been infringed upon by Student Government members
including President Robert Zimmer.
Crrawford said the president could use his seat on the SMA to
blackmail the media by voting to cut media budgets or by threatening
to vote for a media head candidate that favors his agenda.
UNC-Ch student selected top 10 college woman
Lindsay Rae Mclntiyre, UNC-Chapel Hill's student body vice presi-
dent, was named one of Glamour magazine's top ten college women.
Mclntyre, a senior from Victoria, British Columbia, found out about
the magazine contest last year and decided to give it a shot.
To apply she submitted three letters of recommendation, a list of
her extracurricular activites and an essay about her most meaningful
leadership experience. Mclntyre began teaching herself sign language
when she was 15.
University of Tennessee recognized as activist school
Mother Jones, a San Francisco-based investigative magazine,
named the University of Tennessee (UT) as one of the country's top
20 activist schools over the past 20 years in the SeptemberOctober
edition.
UT students have been noted for battling the nearby Watts Bar
nuclear power plant and its parent the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Organizations on campus such as the NAACP, Amnesty Interna-
tional and Habitat for Humanity are some groups who take active
roles on campus.
Mother Jones named UT as an activist campus after poling 20
activist organizations and asking them which schools have pioneered
social action and consistently generated students committed to public
affairs issues.
Appalachian Sate University gets a bad grade
Appalachian State University fell from eighth to 14th place in
U.S. News and World Reports annual survey of Universities and Col-
leges.
Appalachian's score dropped from 87.1 percent to this year's score
of 75.1 percent The office of admissions is in the process of preparing
a report analyzing the rankings to be presented to the Deans Council.
Although Appalachian's overall rating went down, its academic
reputation rating improved, which accounts for 25 percent of the overall
grade.
Mental health professionals are par-
ticipating in National Depression Screen-
ing Week by offering information and
free screenings to local residents.
"This lets people know that depres-
sion is an illness with real treatment If
they get help, 80 percent get better said
Gail Home, executive director of the
Mental Health Association in Pitt County.
Twenty-five percent of all people
experience depression during their life-
time. Common symptoms of depression
include feelings of hopelessness, worth-
lessness, restlessness, changes in sleep
and appetite, energy loss and thoughts
of death. This condition affects the body
as well as the mind.
"Depression, along with any men-
tal illness is viewed in one of two ways.
People may think that the depressed
person can get over it or that its in their
mind This is not true, because depres-
sion is a real illness with real treatments.
Another is just die common stigmas that
surround a mental condition in general
Home said.
Treatment involves psychotherapy
along with medications like prozac and
elavile. If not treated, sufferers of depres-
sion may experience problems at work
or school They may have poor personal
hygiene, sleeping and eating disorders
and in extreme cases, they may commit
suicide.
"I think if s important for people to
know what to look for so they can see it
coming before it gets much worse said
Dr. Thomas Maple, a counselor at the
ECU Student Counseling Center.
Being away from home and among
the population of a large university may
make college students experience feel-
ings of loneliness, which is one of the
major contributors to depression.
"If s really hard not having your
friends or family around Sometimes, you
just sit in your room and think about
things all by yourself freshman biology
major Christina Trucks said.

pression Screening Week last year, but

understandings in the past with people
who seem to feel that making a dog work
is a form of animal abuse. She even has
had SPCA (Society for the Protection
and Care of Animals) officials come to
her house to investigate charges of ani-
mal abuse, although that incident was
quickly resolved when the officials real-
ized that Heidi was a seeing-eye dog.
"People sometimes think that it's
cruel that we make the dogs work like
this. But these dogs absolutely love this
work. When I have to leave (Heidi) at
home, she hates it She wants to be with
me all the time Badger said.
Badger also pointed out that being
able to be with their owners all the time
is one of the perks of a seeingeye dog's
life, as well as being able to go almost
anywhere.
"She's been places that other dogs
won't ever get to go. She's been in res-
taurants, and on beaches that other dogs
don't get to go on. She's been clear to
Alaska and back. Other dogs don't get
to do that Badger said.
While a seeingeye dog might have
all sorts of experiences that the average
dog wouldn't, the average, day-to-day
activities are those where they perform
their services.
"A lot of people wonder Can dogs
read traffic lights, or what exactly can
they do? She goes on my commands.
She can't read traffic signs. But what she
will do, is if I tell her to go across the
street and she sees that there is a car
coming and if s not going to stop, she
won't take me. She'll get in my way so I
can't cross the street" Badger said.
Getting a dog is not for everyone,
Badger said, and is a personal decisioa
Some people who are visually impaired
do not want the responsibility of a dog,
and prefer to work with a cane. But Bad-
ger says it was a wonderful choice for
her.
"I can get places quicker and a lot
more effectively. I like a dog because, for
me it's better. I've gone a lot more places
with her than I would have gone with a
cane, and I feel more confident" Badger
said.
Badger has had Heidi for five years,
and says she will keep the dog until she
dies, even when Heidi is no longer able
to work.
"I will get a new working dog, but I
will have Heidi as long as she's alive.
People do it different ways. Some people
hold on to their dog, and they'll get a
new working dog. Their dog will become
a pet And that gets kind of sticky, be-
cause both dogs have to feel valued
Badger said.
And these dogs are useful far more
so than the average dog that lives as a
pet They provide a valuable service to
their owners, who benefit from the com-
panionship and help of man's best friend.
So students should keep all of these
things in mind when they see a working
dog. Badger says. Do not try to treat these
dogs as pets, or interfere in any way with
their duties, which are serious business
to both the dogs and their owners.

said they looked to see which way they
were headed. But when the man with
the gun looked back and saw them
watching, he started to head for them
again and that was when the two vic-

Once inside, the victims said, the
Subway workers immediately gave them
medical assistance and called an ambu-
lance.
"The people in the Subway really
helped us out a lot the victims said.
The victims were taken to the hos-

were kept under observation. One was
released within a few hours, at approxi-

for several hours after the attack and
did not get released until 5 p.m. the
next day.
The victims said that they lost ap-
proximately $60 to $70 dollars alto-
gether, but that their primary concern
was losing all of their documentation,
such as student ID's, Social Security
cards, driver's licenses and their ATM
and credit cards.
"Do you have any idea how hard it
is to get a check cashed in this town
without any ID?" one of the victims
asked.
The victims pointed out to TEC
that they both (the victims) are fairly-
large men-one is 6T' and the other
6'2and that they were in a well-lit
parking lot next to a busy street It was
also fairly early in the evening, relatively
speaking, since 11:30 p.m. is early com-
pared to the 2 a.m. quitting time most
people adhere to when they are down-
town. Given the circumstances, neither
of these students expected to be the
victim of an attack that night
"We've taiked a lot about it and
we've never given a second thought
about it about walking around down-
town late at night" one of the victims
? said.
The victims said that neither of
them had been drinking that night nor
under the influence of any drugs what-
soever. They said they wanted to stress
that fact since a policeman called them
the day after the attack and asked what
kind of alcohol or drugs were being
used. He didn't ask if there were drugs
involved, the victims said, but seemed
. to assume that there were and only
asked what kind.
The victims said they were initially
unsure about being interviewed about
the incident but decided to do it in the
hopes that others would read their ac-
count of the attack and exercise cau-
tion when out at night
"If whoever sees this paper and
reads this story thinks twice about go-
ing downtown next time, then telling
our story is for the best" the victims
said.
They urged others to always stay
with friends and not to be out late, es-
pecially if they're drinking.
"The situation is crazy. It's every-
where, it's in Greenville, and you have
- to be careful. And until it happens to
you, or someone you care about you
don't think about it"

Was the
launch on
Iraq a
necessary
action to
preserve
democracy or
a calculated
election-year
stunt ?
On Sept 3, the United States launched a missile attack against
Saddam Hussein and Iraq in an effort to combat Hussein's aggres-
sion on the Kurdish areas in what is supposed to be a United
Nations "safe haven" in northern Iraq. Once again, might makes
right and alien threat is suppressed through the power of Ameri-
can technology. Hooray.
George Bush did the same thing back when he was president,
and he received much praise for displaying some backbone and
putting those darn Iraqis in their place. Hooray.
We at TEC are not idiots. We acknowledge that national threats
are a reality. We know that war is a reality. We know that some-
times nations are left with no option but to retaliate and fight
those forces that threaten national security.
We also know how to read between the lines. Think back to
Mr. Bush. Think back to how the election year was approaching
Think back to how many voters viewed Mr. Bush as a "wimp a
president with no backbone. What better way to show that you are
not a wimp, to prove that you are a strong, tough leader than to
walk right up to your enemy and slap him in the face. Cross this
line and you'll get burned. That's what many Americans want in a
leader.
Guess what? Another election year is approaching. Is this a
coincidence or is President Clinton copying Mr. Bush? Many crit-
ics of Mr. Clinton have also centered him out as a wimpy leader, an
idealistic flower child. Clinton needs the polls on his side. He needs
to prove that he is a leader we can depend on when it comes to
hostile threats. What can one do?
Mr. Clinton and his staff are justifying their decision to attack
by boasting about international security concerns. "Our objectives
in Iraq are limited but our interests are clear Mr. Clinton states.
"To demonstrate once again that reckless acts have consequences,
to reduce Saddam's ability to strike out again at his neighbors, to
increase America's ability to prevent future acts of violence and
aggression
Even Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole had voiced
his support for such a daring display of strength. "America and its
allies and friends around the world can no longer tolerate Saddam's
repeated attempts to erode the restraints that have been placed
on his regime, and to violently reassert his authority Dole said.
When you wipe away all of the political, flag-waving rhetoric,
what is left? We at TEC see this military aggression as just another
political move to boost the polls. It was once stated that nothing
helps the economy like a good, old-fashioned war; the same can be
said for the presidential stats. We, as Americans, like to feel secure,
and we want a leader who will guarantee that security. We don't
want a wimp.
Another famous quote stated that wars do not make one great
The same can be said when talking about the wimptough leader
analogy.
So, before you salute our leaders for taking action against a
national threat take a moment and ask the all-important question,
"Why did they do this now?"

Monogamy is a fossil
By design, humans possess the
ability to reason. It is what separates
us from the rest of the animal king-
dom. Baboons can do the sex gigolo
with a thousand other babe-boons.
It is not in their nature to bother with
sexual ethics.
Well, I am not an ape or mon-
key.
I have known a hundred guys
who were great friends, but I could
never stomach their treatment of
women. We'd go downtown on a Fri-
day or Saturday night and I felt like
I was in a jungle. Primates jumping
up and down on one another with
somekind of erotic fervor. Me; I al-
ways end up standing precariously in
a corner, wishing God would start
evolution over. Hey, where is love?
Am I endangered here? Don't tell
me that conquering as much flesh
as is possible is some sort of pursuit
of love.

Bravol You've
just added
another pathetic
chapter to the
book of human
futility.
The value of a monogamous re-
lationship is at an all-time low. Mo-
nogamy does not entail one sex part-
ner per night. It is a commitment to
your significant other. That means
if your lucky enough to find that spe-
cial someone, you don't lie, cheat or
sneak. I swear on my grandmother
Sylvia's grave, that if you delegate
that powerful sexual energy toward
someone you love, the heart will
flourish.
People seem to treat sex like it's
something you get away with. "Oh,
yeah, I nailed this chick last night,
and I didn't even give up my real
name Bravo! You've just added
another pathetic chapter to the book
of human futility.
Look, I guess I'm getting too old
to deal with people who blow-off the
fragility of the human condition. Is
love not what we're searching for?
Maybe the 90s are just some sort of
surreal forum for sex dominance. Of
course, as usual I'm ranting, but it
doesn't really matter.

Vote for Victims' Rights
To the Editor,
This past session, 1 submitted
Senate Bill 6 which is known as the
"Victims Rights Bill This bill is a
Constitutional amendment that must
be approved by the voters of North
Carolina on November 5.1 would like
for your readers to be aware of this
initiative and what it means for our
state.
If a majority of the voters sup-
port my bill in the General Elections
on November 5, the victims of crime
will have the following rights: 1. To
be informed of and be present at
court proceedings of the accused; 2.
To be heard at sentencing and other
times; 3. To receive restitution; 4. To
be given relevant information about
the system; 5. To be notified about
the disposition of the case and the
sentence of the accused; 6. To be
notified of changes in the status of
the convict; and 7. To confer with
the prosecution.
Eighteen other states have
added these rights to their Constitu-
tion and I feel that it is time that we
do the same. I have submitted this
bill and fought for its passage in the
General Assembly, but the job is not
done until every voter is aware of
what my bill will do to improve the
rights of victims in North Carolina.
We should be tougher on criminals,
and more supportive of victims. If our
system is more supportive of victims,
our communities will be less inviting
to criminals. 1 ask that you please
support Senate Bill 6 on the ballot
this November. Please vote for
Victim's Rights.

To the Editor,
I am writing in response to the
article in Thursday's TEC "Student
Fees Pay for SGA Tuition
Student government is a campus
organization that very few students
know or even care about So, why is
it that these fellow students believe
that they are the "highest campus
leaders?" The truth is that these so-
callei leaders" have little effect on
the everyday common student
Why is it that these people have
the ability to pass a bill allowing their
leaders to use my money for their tu-
ition and books? Maybe the Interfra-
ternity (IFC) and Panheliinic councils
should pay their leaders' tuition with
student fees? In fact why shouldn't all
students receive free tuition? The fact
is that had the students known about
this bill before it was passed, there
would have been a major debate be-
tween the East Carolina University
students and our leaders. It seems as
if the SGA is a secret society that only
comes public with legislation that tells
students their student fees are pay-
ing for other students to receive an
education.
Proven by last year's election, the
SGA is at best controversial. Maybe it
is about time we investigate this or-
ganization and reveal where our
money is really going. As a student
who does pay tuition here at school,
it disgusts me to know that my money
is also paying for other students to
receive an education.
The way to solve this problem is
to allow the entire student body to
vote whether or not SGA officials
should receive free tuition in addition
to free books and a monthly check. I
guarantee at the end of that vote all
student government officers would be
receiving a paycheck every week for
the number of hours they really
worked times $5, as do most student
employees. If they were the "highest
campus leaders" they claim they are,
they would be paying their own way
and putting money back into the uni-
versity-where it should be going!

Support same-sex marriages
To the Editor,
I wanted to thank you first for
your presentation of the understand-
able differences of opinion relating to
the issue of same-sex marriage. I felt
though, that a stronger case needed
to be made in favor of such marriages.
The big argument against same-
sex marriages stems from the idea that
marriages are simply the union of a
man and woman for the purpose of
having children. This idea is flawed
without even considering same-sex
unions. When a couple applies for a
marriage license, they may have to
have a blood test, but do not have to
take a fertility test. Nor are couples
without plans to have children or too
old to have children denied marriage
licenses on those grounds.
A marriage is a commitment be-
tween two adults who love one an-
other and want to commit their lives
to living together as a couple. They
may or may not have children, either
of their own as a coupl, of one from
previous relationship or by artificial
insemination, or of neither through
adoption.
The whole idea of a "Defense of
Marriage Act" is preposterous and sim-
ply an election-year ploy to try and
make Bill Clinton alienate gay and
lesbian voters. Elizabeth Birch, direc-
tor of the Human Rights Campaign
best showed the hypocrisy of one of
the original sponsors of the bill, Rep.
Barr (R-GA), when she asked him
which of his three marriages he was
trying to defend. Similarly, one could
ask which of Bob Dole or Newt
Gingrich's marriages they wished to
defend.
The only thing that marriage
needs to be defended from is people
who take their marriage vows lightly,
leading to break-up and divorce.
Maybe Congress is simply afriad that
if allowed, same-sex couples might
actually show them up and just get
the marriage thing right

BANG! POW! SMACK!
CRASH! SLAM! BOF! OOF!
Those were the sounds of my
youthful introduction to TV violence
on reruns of the ultra-campy, almost
cartoonish Batman show. Con-
stantly beseiged by lackeys sporting
goofy nicknames and matching out-
fits, Batman (Adam West) and Robin
(Burt Ward) punched and kicked
their way through an endless mass
of bad guy flesh.
And it didn't stop there. James
West (Robert Conrad) and Artemus
Gordon (Ross Martin) regularly used
human bodies to destroy furniture
on The Wild, Wild West while, over
at the Paramount lot James T. Kirk
(William Shatner) of Star Trek fame
put a hurtin' on just about every'
non-human that thrust his chin out
towards him.
For the younger kiddies of our
generation (hell, I must admit 1 loved
'em, too), Warner Brothers dished
out cartoons of Bugs Bunny beat-
ing the crap out of Elmer Fudd and
Wile E. Coyote serving as indestruc-
tible fodder for his own evil machi-
nations against the always chipper
and moralistically unchallenged
Road Runner.
"So what? you may ask.
Well, our generation has been
characterized as an ultra-violent un-
caring, unfeeling bunch of wackos
who would rather take injections of
heroin in our eyes and rape our
grandfathers than try to make the
world a better place. .And many of
those who characterize us this way
would blame violence in the media
(entertainment and otherwise) for
this.
Come on, how can anyone be-
lieve a concept like this? Let's lump
everybody in their 2()'s together and
say that Daffy Duck made them kill,
kill, kill. It's ridiculous.
Why am I on this soapbox? Rap
artist Tupac Shakur recently died
because of his involvement in a
drive-by shooting and his detractors
have been less than pleasant in stat-
ing why they feel he died. Bob Dole,
in his run for the presidency, has
recently spoken out about the lack
of family values in such films as
Natural Bom Killers and Pulp Fic-
tion.
Both of these things have
brought the topic of violence up to
a simmering heat in the frying pan
that is my brain. In order to put my
thoughts in perspective, let me
tackle each one of these aforemen-
tioned topics in turn.
First of all. Tupac was admit-
tedly, from day one, a gangsta. No
mincing words here, he lived life
hard and fast and many criticize him
for it Yet the blame for his death
lies not with the popularity he en-
joyed as a rap artist Yes. the record
industry does promote heavily th se
rappers who have a street legitimacy
they can maintain, but. they are not
the source for this problem, either.
No, the real problem lies with
society and our inability to provide
a way out for people who are
trapped because of their economic
status. Because they are angry and
they have no political voice, they
have to find some kind of voice

hopes a new project captures those
parental aspirations, warnings and
predictions forever for this year's (and
future) freshmen.
Project 2000, similar to a time
capsule, allowed parents to write let-
ters to their children and simply state
their thoughts about sending their
son or daughter away to school. The
letters were then sealed in envelopes
and addressed to the students' per-
manent homes.
In a separate envelope, parents
mailed the letters to University Hous-
ing Services, who will keep the let-
ters in a safe until May of the year
2000, the projected graduation date
for this year's freshman class. At that
time. Housing Services will mail the
letters back to the students.
Manny Amaro, director of Univer-
sity Housing Services, said he hopes
the project, developed by Carolyn
Miller, associate director for Resident's
Life, will become a tradition at ECU.
"We see a
need at ECU to
build on some tra-
ditions Amaro
said. "We truly are
a wonderful south-
ern university.
When you think of
southern universi-
ties, you think of

ECU is only
one of a few univer-
sities that have
projects similar to Project 2000, ac-
cording to Amaro.
The project has been a success
so far. considering Housing Services
has received more than 1.100 letters.

a surprise to the students. However,
Amaro thinks some students may al-
ready know.

Expressions earned a whopping
145 points. The judge loved the

tractive way?
Bruce brings back
mythic hero with
brains and bullets
Dale Williamson
Assistant Ufestyie Editor
When Bruce Willis first played
tough guy in Die Hard his career took a
drastic turn from light comedy to hard-
edged action. In an attempt to become
the next big action star, Willis made sev-
eral shootem-up films that, unfortu-
nately, labeled him as a half-baked actor
of mindless trash. As a result Willis' ca-
reer took a dive.
Wising up to this fact. Willis has
recently tried to revamp his career by
revising his role as tough guy. Both lilp
Fiction and 12 Monkeys featured Willis
as the taut hero, but unlike other Willis
actioners (such as Striking Distance)
these films were backed with solid sto-
ries and creative talent. These films gave
Willis the boost he needed to restruc-
ture his heroic image.
Willis' newest film. Last Man Stand-
ing, continues on the path that Ihilp
Fiction and 12 Monkeys paved by cast
ing our hero within a mythic context that
poetically plays off archetypes and clas-
sic motifs. While every other critic in this
country is discounting ImsI Man Stand-
ing as a needlessly violent cliche, this
film proves to be a action piece filled with
top cinematic talent, a mythic atmo-
sphere, and an engaging moral ambigu-
ity.
Wntei directoi Waltei Hill bases
IlsI Man Stamina on Akira Kurosawa's
Japanese masterpiece Yojimbo (which
was also redone as the Sergio Ieone
Clint Eastwood western. A Fistful of
Dollars). The tale involves a lone figure
appearing in a wasting town ruled by
two warring gangs. Seeing an opportu-
nity to make a financial gain, this lone
figure plays both sides of evil by work-
ing for both gangs and manipulating
them against one another.
This mythic tale requires a setting
and time that creates a sense of distance
and separation from our sense of reality.
Trying to recreate this story within a
contemporary metropolis would not
carry the same sense of awe and isola-

figure (Willis as the ambiguous John
Smith, a nice play off "the man with no
name" mystique) in the far reaches of
the Texas wasteland during the prohibi-
tion era. Kurosawa used samurais. Sergio
I eone used cowboys, Hill uses gangsters.

I'm doing, everybody else tries to jump

at recent big-screen successes that fo-
cused on teachers -Mr. Holland's Opus

Pfeiffer's Dangerous Minds ? and put
two and two together. Dangerous Minds
itself is coming to the small screen in
the form of a dramatic series on ABC.
"It's not so much everyone is imi-

think the movie maybe reminded every-
body that this is sort of a time-honored
genre that really had been getting short
shrift of late on television said Peter
Noah, executive producer of the teacher
sitcom Mr. Rhodes.
Reo, whose Pearl stars Rhea
Perlman as a widow who is accepted to
a Yale-like university, said television of-
ten borrows from the movies.
Of the new shows this fall, three are
similar in that they revolve around fish-
out-of-water teachers and all three fea-
ture actors who have been stand-up com-
ics at one time or another.
NBC's Mr. Rhodes stars Tom
Rhodes as a long-haired, jeans-wearing,
down-on-his-luck novelist who turns to
teaching at a private prep school.
The WB Network's Nick Freno:
Licensed Teacher stars Mitch Mullany
as a wanna-be actor who becomes a sub-
stitute teacher at an urban middle school.
Steve Harvey stars in the WB
Network's The Steve Harvey Show as
an ex-musician who reluctantly takes a
job teaching music at an inner-city high
school when his royalty checks stop com-
ing.
When pitched ideas for a series,
Rhodes said he "got so many bad, cheesy
horrible ideas thrown at me By the

wise Pearl a run for her money.
For drama fans, Dangerous Minds

her comedic roles such as Designing

VIOLENCE from page 6

somewhere. That voice is justifiably one
fufl of anger and violence at tl Jt injustice
which oppresses them. And more often
than not those who criticize that voice
do so from an elevated economic posi-
tion. In fact, the ones criticizing are usu-
ally the ones causing the problem.
Next Bob Dole doesn't know a good
movie from a hole in his head. He re-
cently stated that True Lies was a better
film than Natural Born Killers because
it extolled family values.
. Later, an interviewer told him that
more people were killed oivscreen in True
Lies than in Natural Born Killers and
asked him how he thought this was a
good example of a family film. Dole ad-
mitted that he had not seen either film,
that the speech had been written for him.
Again, the problem lies more with the
uninformed critic rather than the more
informed victim of said criticism.
These two incidents serve as per-
fect examples of the misconceptions the
generations before ours have about their
roles in our current state.
Our generation is messed up. I'd
be the first to admit that But so is the
one before it and the one before it etc
The problem isn't TV or movies or books.
It is much more complex than that
People are the problem, as they al-
ways have been and always will be.
Instead of worrying about why
we're shooting each other's brains out

album about it Listen to the voices that

Much of the film's criticism centers
around the violence and sexism of the
characters. While the characters ae vio-
lent and they use women for their own
distasteful purposes, violence and sexism
are not the film's central elements. In
reality, gangster organizations were not'
known for humanitarian efforts, and
political correctness had not yet dawned
in the '20s.
One of the major strengths of this
film's story is its sense of manipulation
and moral ambiguity. Smith is not the
classic hero in the traditional sense; he
is, however, the classic film noir figure.
He is a man running away (from what
we are never sure). He is a man who hides
in a whiskey bottle (which also serves as
a sense of empowerment for him). He is
a man who manipulates situations to
work for him. Hill pays homage to film
noir to the point that he even has our
hero's tired, beaten voice aarrate the tale.
While Last Man Standing looks to
the past for its inspiration, it doesn't get
stuck in the past Hill is a talented mod-
ern director who knows his craft Like
the heroes in other contemporary mythic
films (such as John Woo's The Killer and
Robert Rodriguez's Desperado), Smith
is an unstoppable walking arsenal. Give
this hero not one but two guns and any-
thing is possible.
Technically, Last Man Standing is
topnotch stuff. Cinematographer Lloyd
Ahern creates a dusty, golden wasteland
riddled with blood and fire; Ry Cooper's
soundtrack recalls the disorienting feel
of the spaghetti westerns of the late '60s;
and Hill's transitions from scene to scene
and sequence to sequence clearly illus-
trate his visual expertise.
Christopher Walken is an extra bo-
nus as the scarred, raspyvoiced gangster
named Hickey. I don't care how tired the
critics are of Walken playing the killer
psychotic he is a cinematic treasure who
wears his roles with the elegance of roy-
alty.
Last Man Standing is not for ev-
eryone, admittedly. It is extremely vio-
lent there are few (if any) admirable char-
acters, and one has to comprehend the
story's subtext in order to fully appreci-
ate the film's moral thematics. However,
for those of you who enjoy action with a
disturbing edge, Last Man Standing is a
sure bet
Bruce Willis has taken some harsh
blows from critics in the past and appar-
ently Last Man Standing isn't going to
be an exception-1 have to stray from the
majority on this one, though. Willis' re-
cent work (with the exception of Die
Hard With a Vengeance) has been ad-
mirable, and if his latest is an indication
as to the type of roks he'll be choosing
in the future, then I'm sure his films will
stand the test of time and leave the crit-
ics in the dust

IRONICALLY, THE TIME TO START
SAVING FOR RETIREMENT IS WHEN IT LOOKS
LIKE YOU CAN LEAST AFFORD IT.
K
Can't afford to save for retirement?
The truth is. you can't afford not to.
Not when you realize that your retirement
can last 20 to 3o years or more. You'll want
to live at least as comfortably then as you
do now. And that takes planning.
Bv starting to save now, you can take
advantage of tax deferral and give your
money time to compound and grow.
Consider this: Set aside just $100 each
month beginning at age 3o and you can
accumulate over $172 ,109 by the time
vou reach age r5. But wait ten years and
vou'll have to budget $219 each month
to reach the same goal
Even if you're not counting the years to
retirement, vou can count on TlAA-CRt.r
to help you build the future you deserve -
with flexible retirement and tax-deferred
annuity plans, a diverse portfolio ol invest-
ment choices, and a record ot personal
service that spans yS years.

Amanda Ross
Sports Editor
It was just another typical foot-
ball Saturday for the Pirates.
When ECU headed down to Co-
lumbia to match-up with South
Carolina, little did they know that
history would be made.
It was the 13th meeting be-
tween the two schools with the
Gamecocks holding a 9-3 lead in the
series. But after a 23-7 victory,
USC's series lead was cut down to
9-4.
The weather favored the Pirates
throughout the game. No it wasn't
a clear, cool night; it was rainy and
muddy. Why would that favor the
Pirates, you ask? Thanks to Hurri-
cane Fran, the Pirates were used to
practicing in the rain and it was ob-
vious that South Carolina was not
With the aerial assault shut
down due to the weather, the run-
ning game had to pick up the slack.
And it did in a huge way.
Sophomore Fullback Scott
Harley rushed for 291 yards, which
is a school record for most rushing
yards in a game. The original mark
was set by Junior Smith in 1993 with
282 yards. Harley tied another
record set by Butch Colson in 1969,
for most carries in a game - 41.
Harley credits his success to his
teammates who helped to create the
openings he needed to get down the
field.
"I just come out here and try
to play football and win games
Harley said. "AH I do is follow my
linemen and my linemen were giv-
ing me good blocks. The defense
played well and special teams played

Jon Lauterer
Staff Writer
Last weekend was a very event-
ful time for the ECU Women's Soccer
team.
Two home games on Bunting
Field only one day apart and one be-
ing a conference game, were enough
to make the ECU team feel the pres-
sure of expectation.
The first game of the weekend
took place on Friday afternoon. ECU
faced off with an equally skillful team,
Florida State. The Seminoles were
definitely ready to play tough.
The game had advanced only 10
minutes into the first half when fresh-
man player Shana Woodward received
an injury to her right leg. The injury
resulted in Woodward having to sit
out the game.
The Pirates kept the momentum
strong and steady for the first 20 min-
utes, resulting in a great deal of play
at the Seminole goal. But not many
shot attempts were made by ECU.
At about the 20 minute mark, the
Seminole offense surged forward and
gave the Pirates a good seesaw battle
for the rest of the half.
Ten minutes before the half, the
Seminoles made a great number of
shot attempts on Pirate territory
which finally resulted in a Florida
State goal.
A big blow to the ECU offense
came just before the half when this
season's leading scorer. Karen Blake,
was injured by a kick to the left shin
Blake was carried off of the field and
iced up for the rest of the game.
The second half was a struggle
at mid-field. Both sides couldn't get a
good look at the other's goal and the
goalkeepers pulled saves until the end.
Due to the aggressive play, a
Seminole was issued a red card in the
second half.
The closest the Pirates came to
tying the Seminoles was when Kelly
Karras fired a penalty kick that
bounced off of the top of the goal post
When the final whistle blew and
the dust cleared, the Florida State
Seminoles were the victors by the
score of 1-0.
The Lady Pirates had only one
day to prepare for their second con-
ference game of the season. Their first
conference match up wasa loss on
Wednesday to Old Dominion at Nor-
folk, Va. So the William & Mary match
on Sunday was very important for
standings and team morale.
"We knew coming in that Will-
iam & Mary was going to be very skill-
ful and aggressive, and they were

The men's and women's cross

over the weekend to compete in the
Wolfpack Invitational.
ECU came away with a fourth-
place finish from the men and a
sixth-place finish by the women.
North Carolina State
University's men's and women's
cross country teams captured both
tities this weekend at their
Wolfpack Invitational. This comes
as no surprise, as both teams are
ranked 10th in the country.
For the Pirates, who came
close to beating one of their rivals,
UNC-Wilmington, this meet was one
to be proud of. Never before, in the
history of ECU men's cross coun-
try have nine runners run this fast.
"The men are excited about
this season and are very dedicated
to cause Coach Mike Ford said.
The Pirate, as a team, are, on
average, over a minute faster, rewrit-
ing the top ten of all time in just this
season-
Jamie Mance who finished first
at last weekend's ECUOverton
Cross Country Invitational at Lake
Kristi. was one of the top finishers
for ECU on Saturday. He is one of
the Pirates rewriting history. Mance
finished 11th with a time of 24:S5,
which is a minute faster than last
week's time.
Other top finishers were Jus-
tin England, finishing 16th with a
time of 25:16. and Andrew Worth,
who placed 18th with a time of
25:47.

Freshman Julia
D'Alo named
player of the week
Sean R. O'Brien
Staff Writer
A freshman volleyball player is
turning heads in the Colonial Ath-
letic Association.
Julia D'Alo was named the CAA
volleyball player-of-the-week during
the week of Sept 16.
D'Alo, a freshmen from Pitts-
burgh, Pa. garners the award after
having a phenomenal week. She led
ECU to three straight wins to cap-
ture the Cornell Invitational tourna-
ment title and the Most Valuable
Player honors.
"Julia has simply been the most
consistent player on the team Head
Coach Kim Walker said. "Her physi-
cal and mental effort in each match
and at practice has been outstand-
ing
This past week , D'Alo recorded
13 kills. 144 assists and 33 digs, in-
cluding a career high 49 assists
against Cornell in the tournament's
championship match. She currently
posts a .333 hitting percentage and
has served 19 aces and registered 90
digs.
For D'Alo, the award is some-
thing she knew little about.
"I'm just a freshman and I did
not even know that such an award
was available D'Alo said. "It's a nice
honor and I am very excited about
it"
The tournament win at Cornell
was the first tournament the Lady
Pirates have won this season. They
managed to beat Wagner 3-0, Mor-
gan State 3-1 and Cornell 3-2 in the
finals. For D'Alo the win not only
shines on her abilities as a player,
but alsoon the
team.
"We took a
big step at
Cornell in im-
proving as a
team D'Alo
said. "We really
competed well
and we took the
play at people
when we had to,
something we
have struggled

nation at the amateur level. She cred-
its her experience in junior Olympic
club volleyball as what has brought
her up to the level of play that is
expected in Division 1-A volleyball.
"High school volleyball is on a
much lower level than Division 1-A
but the club volleyball matches I have
played in are pretty much on the
same level D'Alo said. "I have
played in some
club matches that
are at a lot higher

there are some

that kind of expe-

sition she plays on

to win when we all play together

D'Alo is no stranger to putting
it all on the line. She comes from a

football team - you're the center of
everything and you run the offense
D'Alo said. "I am very comfortable
in playing this role, I love my posi-
tion and I would not change it for
the world
One of the reasons that D'Alo
has become so comfortable at setter
1 the trust and support of coach
Walker. D'Alo credits Walker with
her development as a player as well
as one of the key reasons for choos-
ing ECU in the first place.
- "I chose ECU not only because
of the program and academics, but
also because Coach Walker was very
serious when she said she wanted to
turn this program around D'Alo
said. "I have been coached by a lot
of different coaches and what I like
about her coaching style is she al-
lows me to make my own decisions
on the court. She trusts me and we
work together very well. I have a ton
of respect for her
D'Alo believes that the women's
volleyball program will become a con-
tender in the CAA, if not this sea-
son, then next She has a good sense
of where the team stands and where
it is headed in the future.
"I believe we can win a confer-
ence championship D'Alo said. "I
don't know how far down the road
that is, but we are a young team and
we are already having some success.
We are 4-6 and we have beat some
good teams, but we have lost to some
good teams we could have beaten as
well
To win a conference title, team-
work will be the key.
"If we keep working together I
think we will win the conference
eventually D'Alo said.
ECU lost to UNC-Chapel Hill af-
ter the Cornell win in three games
by the score of 9-15, 3-15 and 7-15.
The team also played in one
other tournament this past weekend
at Campbell University. The team's
two wins came against UNC-Asheville
(1-3) and Mercer (1-3). They also re-
corded losses to James Madison (0-
3) and Campbell (0-3).
ECU will play UNC-Greensboro
at 7 p.m. Sept 30 at Minges. Students
are admitted free.

ton Redskins game as well as perform
at a Carolina Panthers game. The
band was selected after they sent in
videotapes to the Redskins and Pan-
thers entertainment directors. They
got the news that they would be per-
forming at these games this summer.
"The students are very intelli-
gent and work very hard, they enjoy
providing entertainment Knighten
said.
A lot of the band success can be
attributed to Knighten. Before he
came to ECU the band's enrollment
was only about
140 people, now
the enrollment is
200 members.
That is an in-
crease of 40 per-
cent

very aggressive

The band

Friday from 4-6
p.m. The members start off with
stretching, marching fundamentals,
30 minutes of just playing music and

The march-

HEART
BALL from page 9 ECU from page 11 PAC1V from page 9
The game kicked off on a sour
note with a Tribe goal on the fourth
minute.
"Early goals do not help. In the
game of soccer, you don't score that
many in the first place and when you
get down one-nothing four minutes
into the match, it gets tough Rob-
erts said.
The early Tribe goal prompted an
ECU defensive scramble against a re-
lentless Tribe offense. ECU Goal-
keeper Cara Morgridge had her hands
full with 15 saves throughout the
game. The Tribe did a very consistent
job of keeping the ball in Pirate terri-
tory for the remainder of the first half.
The second half was a hard one
for the clearly-frustrated Pirates. The
second Tribe goal that slipped out of
Morgridge's hands in the 59th minute
was a devastating blow to the Pirates.
With only three minutes remain-
ing, the nail was driven by the Tribe
when they scored the last goal of the
game.
The final score- William & Mary
3, ECU 0.
"The girls hung tough, they came

than it was
The question remains: Does
South Carolina respect ECU now?
"Most definitely not Ron
Suddith said. "They don't respect us.
When we were doing stretching,
they were talking about East Caro-
lina who? So obviously they don't
respect us. But they know deep
down inside that we're a better
team
Lamont Burns sees the series
doing more of a balancing act. with
ECU racking up more victories.
"The series is starting to bal-
ance out Burns said. "They still
don't respect us. Once they start
respecting East Carolina and the
program, it won't be the way it's
been the last four or five games. It
will be a more competitive series
when they realize we're just as good
a team as they are or better
Going into the game, there was
no doubt that the Pirates were
pumped up for the battle.
it's pretty tough coming down
here, but we played out hearts out
and come out with the victory
Crandell said.
Harley felt the same way.
"We were down after the West
Virginia loss but we knew we could
come down here and give these guys
a fight Harley said.

direction Ford said.
N.C State's Pat Joyce won the
event with a time of 24:15.
On the women's side, Kerri
Hartling finished strong for the
Lady Pirates, placing 17th with a
time of 19:35. Karen Reinhard kept
up the intensity, using her "don't
give up" mentality placing 18th
behind Hartling. Her time 19:36
and Dava Rhodes was 21st at 21:10.
The goal for the Lady Pirates
is to get their times down and over-
take their biggest rival the
Seahawks. Jackie Coscia took first
for the Wolfpack with the time ctf
18:26.
The next meet for the men will
be this weekend at Greensboro at

the Lady Pirates, they head to

BAND from page 10
rades, but they did put on a great
show at the Liberty Bowl Parade.
Also the Marching Pirates perform
twice a year at high school march-
ing band competitions, which is a
great recruiting tool. They perform
in front of 2,000 to 5,000 students
at these competitions. This does not
include all the people that they per-
form in front of in a year.
"The band performs in front of
400,000 people a year Knighten
said.
They also travel to one away
game in football and they go to Bowl
games if the football team makes it
in. The band also has 30 people per-
form for basketball games and they
travel to the CAA tournament in
Richmond. Part of the group will
perform at the Virginia Tech game,
but the whole band will perform at
the long awaited clash between Pi-
rates and N.C. State. You know - the
other team.
So the next time you watch an
NFL game look for your Marching
Pirates during the halftime show.
You never know where they might
pop up next

THESE ARE THE WORDS of opportuni-
ty. There is only about 5 of the people in
the United States who have what I want.
These are the leaders that have moved out
of the flock and became eagles. If you don't
ever step out of the pack, you will always
be part of it. If you want to be understood
by the 5 you will be misunderstood, at
times, by the 95. I am part of the fellow-
ship of the 5. The die has been cast, I
have stepped out of the comfort zone, the
decision has been made. I won't look back,
let up, slow down, or back away. My past is
forgiven, my present is focused, my future
is secure. I'm finished and done with low
living, sidewalking, small planning, faith-
less dreams, tainted vision, mundane talk-
ing, cheap excuses, and dwarf goals. I no
longer have the need for eminence, posi-
tion, promotion,promises, or popularity. I
don't have to be first, I don't have to be
right, I don't have to be recognized,
praised, regarded, or rewarded. I live by
faith, learn by submitting, labor by love,
lead by example. My dream is developed,
my destination definite, desire determined,
discipline dedicated, devotion distinct. My
pace is set, my pace is fast, my road is nar-
row, my way is tough, my companions
strong, my counselors reliable, my purpose
pure, and my mission clear. I can not be
bought, compromised.detoured, lured away,
turned back, diluted, delayed or denied. I
will not flinch at the face of sacrifice, hes-
itate in the presence of the advisory, nego-
tiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at
the pool of popularity, or meander in the
maze of mediocrity. I won't give up, shut
up, let up until I've stayed up, stored up,
paid up, and stood up for the prices and
cause of freedom. I must fight when oth-
ers faint, go when others won't, give until
I drop, teach till I know, and work until
the task is finished and when I lay exhaust-
ed on the playing field of dreamers, the
Britt Diamond Club won't have a problem
recognizing me as one of their own. Come
join us. For more information call 353-
