Proposal states only
chancellor, individual
given access
Andrew LeLiever
staff writer
The, Faculty Senate recently
passed a proposal to give campus
computer users increased confiden-
tiality by decreasing access to per-
sonal files.
Previously university statutes
declared the Chancellor, and any
designee of the chancellor could
have access to any student or facul-
ty member's e-mail. The new pol-
icy states that no one has access to
an individual's e-mail except the
chancellor or that individual unless
there is cause for investigation.
Accordingly, if there is no'com-
plaint filed the persons computers
should not be tampered with by
the Chancellor, said member of the
faculty senate and head of philoso-
phy department George Bailey.
"The faculty wanted a policy
that recognized that e-mail and per-
sonal files were in fact confiden-
tial Bailey said.
Chancellor Richard Eakin spoke
to the faculty senate about the
expectations of the faculty regard-
ing confidentiality and privacy and
the fact that these rights were not
protected under the law in a public
forum like university servers.
Eakin disagreed with the faculty
senate, and maintains that he does
not want to support a false sense of
security among users of the univer-
sity server. Eakin said some people
feel his interpretation of the law is
too strict.
"I will not stand for indiscrimi-
nate monitoring of e-mail, but I
cannot endorse the policy as cur-
rently written said Eakin.
According to Ben Irons,
University attorney, the informa-
tion generated on machines owned
by the state is public record with
exception as defined by law. The
law is still being interpreted to say
just what those exceptions are.
And it seemed unfair to the faculty
and students to say there was confi-
dentiality when there is not.
"E-mail messages are not pri-
vate messages at all. Students talk
on them like talking on a tele-
phone. They should not write any-

After a semester of highly public
crimes on campus, yet another inci-

hall.
Friday night around 10 p.m stu-

Redfern allegedly
entered the Belk
Residence Hall room of
two female students
disguised in a ski mask
and armed with a knife.
Redfern is 18 years
old and a resident of
Belk Residence Hall.
Redfern reportedly
assaulted one of at least
five females who were
present in the room
when the alleged rob-
bery and assault took
place. He then proceeded to steal was held up to

Redfern was arrested on
Saturday, April 4 in connection with
the incident and charged with one
count of robbery with a dangerous
weapon and one count of assault
with a deadly weapon, both of
which arc felony charges.
Jordan said no light has been
shed on Redfern's motives, and it is
not known if the act was perpetrat-
ed out of anger or desire for the
stolen property.
At this time police officials are
not able to release much informa-
tion regarding the robbery.
"This case is still under investi-
gation, we can't give out much
information, it (the motive) could
have been either way Jordan said.
Redfern has been incarcerated
in the Pitt County Jail under a
secured $26,000 bond.
He made his first appearance
before a judge Monday so that his
charges could be explained to him,
and so that he could discuss legal
options and council. His next court
date has yet to be set.
Anyone with any information
regarding this incident should call
the ECU police department at 328-

Helmet usage decreases
bicycle deaths, injuries
Jennv Vickers
staff writer
Between 1992 and 19, five peo-
ple were killed in bicycle crashes.
Out of 130 patients treated in 1995
at Pitt County Memorial Hospital's
emergency department for bicycle-
related injuries, the three percent
who died were not wearing bicycle
helmets. Out of 22 percent admit-
ted for serious injuries, 18 percent
were also not wearing bicycle hel-
mets.
The Pitt County Safe
Communities Coalition, one out of
two federally funded programs in
the entire country, in conjunction
with Greenville Urban Area Bicycle
Task Force, is working on ways to
decrease the number of bicycle-
related injuries. The groups plan to
design an appropriate bicycle hel-
met ordinance and bike path sys-
tem.
The various data concerning
bicycle-related incidents imply that
Pitt County has a serious problem.
"Between 1991 and 1995, 870
people from Pitt County were seen
in the PCMH emergency depart-
ment for injuries related to bicycle
use said Dr. Herb Garrison, asso-
ciate professor at the university
School of Medicine. "Eighty had
injuries severe enough to require
administration to the hospital.
About 40 percent of the injured
were between the ages of six and 15
years. Of 130 injured bicyclists
seen at the PCMH emergency
department in 1995, only six per-
cent were recorded as wearing a
helmet
The Coalition has conceived the
P.E.D.A.L initiative to prevent
bicycle injuries: parental involve-
ment, education campaign, distrib-
ution of helmets, access to bike
lanes and laws requiring helmet
use.
"Since head injuries account for
so many of the hospitalizations and
deaths related to bicycle crashes,
P.E.D.A.L has an emphasis on
improving helmet use Garrison
said.
In the entire country, 15 states
have bicycle helmet laws. Most of
the laws apply to an age group of
below 16 years of age and include
penalties such as confiscation of
bicycles and fines up to $100.
The first bicycle law, passed in
New Jersey, didn't come into effect
until 1992. Just one year after this
mandatory law was passed, fatalities
for bicyclists under age 14 dropped
by 80 percent and helmet use rose
from three percent to almost 70 per-
cent
"We are trying to figure out
what age group the ordinance
should be applied to said Ron

The ECU School of Business's
Small Business Institute (SBI)
received the "Case of the Year
Award" for the southeast region of
the U.S. and was a finalist for the
national award of the same title.
This award is presented by the
Small Business Institute Directors
Association, a professional associa-
tion for programs such as SBI.
Since 1974, this SBI-sponsored
business class has provided the
opportunity for students to analyze
local businesses and their indus-
tries. Students identify problems
with the business andor industry
and then propose a solution to the
problem.
"The actual class enabled us to be
put in a real world situation
Cohen said.
Throughout the semester, stu-
dents identify the problems a com-
pany is having. Once the problems
are identified, the students and the
business owner decide which prob-
lem area(s) need to be addressed.
Following research, the students
complete a written report including
suggestions for improving the busi-
ness. This report is given to the
business owner. The students also
give an oral presentation conveying
their findings.
"The proposal we wrote was
very real in dealing with a non-prof-
it organization Cohen said.
Cohen found this experience to
be a valuable one. She is now the
marketing coordinator for FreBon
International Corporation near
Washington, D.C.
"We sec it as a win-win type of
situation where students get a real
world experience Childers said.
At the end of the semester,
Childers selects cases to be entered
in competition sponsored by the
Small Business Institute Directors
Association. Annually, regional and
national competitions provide the
opportunity for students to receive
recognition for their work in classes
such as the one offered through the
SBI at ECU.
This is the fourth time the SBI
has won regional case competitions.
The Institute has also won two
National Finalist awards and an
award for national runner-up.

15th President of the UNC system
which encompasses 16 campuses
statewide. The event will take
place on April 29.
The inauguration is a two-day

versities throughout the system.
Festivities begin at UNC Chapel
Hill on April 28 with a dinner and a
speech by Dr. Barry Munitz, presi-
dent of J. Paul Getty Trust and for-
mer chancellor of California State
Universities' 23 campus system.
On the morning of April 29,
N.C. Central University will hold a
special event honoring teaching
and learning within the system.

well as class rank.
a The average SAT score for
incoming freshmen at ECU is 1016.
This score is higher than the aver-
age SAT score in NC and in the
nation.
Criteria for acceptance into ECU
has risen over the past 10 years.
The average GPA of incoming
freshman used to be 2.8 and is now
3.2.
Performance of students at ECU
is also on the rise. Last year's fresh-
men class had lite highest GPA than
any other freshmen class in ECU's
Delegations from each school with-
in the system will attend the gath-
ering.
During the event, special faculty
members from each of the schools
within the system will receive the
fourth annual Board of Governors
Awards for teaching. The rewards
include a bronze medal and a $7500
cash award.
The Board of Governors will
also honor one faculty from any of
the schools with a special O. Max
Gardner award, consisting of a
bronze medal and a $10,000 cash
prize. The prize, established in
1949 by Gov. Oliver Max Gardner,
retains his name.
The formal inaugural event
begins at N.C. State University's
Reynolds Coliseum at 7:30 p.m.
with an academic procession. The
procession will include chancellors
of the schools in the system, SGA
presidents, faculty senate chair and
members, the Board of Trustees as
well as various other important sys-
tem members.

This is apparent from the

chancellor for academic affairs.
In a special addition to the
reception, "President Broad is

Svejkovsky, transportation planner
for Greenville's Public Works and
chairman of the Task Force.
In North Carolina, Black
Mountain, Carolina Beach, Chapel
Hill and
tion the needs of the entire com-
munity.
"We have various questions that
need to be answered before coming
up with an ordinance Svejkovsky
said.
If the ordinance is applied to all
age groups and the entire commu-
nity, then all 5,000 to 6,000 of
ECU's students who ride bicycles
will have to wear helmets. These
groups question the implications
this type of ordinance will imply.
The Enforcement in Education
and Promotion Working Group, a
sub-committee of the Task Force,
consists of various members of the
community who go out into the
community to address these issues
in order to figure out the best bicy-
cle helmet ordinance for the entire
community.

"In any ordinance, there will be
two sides of it Svejkovsky said.
"In our case, one side concerns
whether the bicycle helmet ordi-
nance should be applied to road-
ways only. The other side is
whether this law will invade per-
sonal constitutional rights
The groups are unsure of when
the ordinance will come into effect.
"It will take time to work
through all of the issues
Svejkovsky said. � "We will be
speaking to various groups in order
to get different perspectives. We
will be discussing bike routes from
an ecological and safety stand-
point
The first official bikeway system
was built in 1979.
"Some of them shouldn't even
be there Svejkovsky said.
Despite efforts made to build
bike paths such as the ones by the
town commons and Aycock, many
aren't being used in the extent they
should be. Senior class President
Jonathan Huggins supports a bicy-
cle helmet ordinance and feels
that all members of the communi-
ty should voice their opinions
about it.
"The public has a tremendous!
amount of influence in the deci-f
sions we make Huggins said. "i
have a firm belief in listening to our
public community. I don't want the
community to think their voice

"In relation to the public records

on a university server. He said the
J Chancellor or anyone else could

board in the post office is fair game.
Ziko said a specific case would be
necessary to be examined for any
specific law to be made.
Bailey said the faculty senate
passed these policy revisions to
increase academic freedom within
the faculty.
The state law provides that e-
mail or any form of record generat-
ed by a state machine is normally
public record excluding telephones
and library terminals.
The policy the senate proposed
gave limited confidentiality, but
the chancellor did not believe this
expectation is in agreement with
the law.

Citizens who attended the
meeting voiced opinions for more
than an hour after Mayor Nancy
Jenkins opened the floor to debate.
Jean Wilkerson, who owns a
business on Fifth St suggested
naming the Town Commons in Dr.
Martin Luther King Jrs honor
instead. Wilkerson said the Town
Commons was the sight of
Greenville's first African-American
church and was a place where both
black and white citizens wor-
shipped.
"I am opposed to making it a
black white issue Wilkerson said.
"The West side of Fifth St. is 90
percent black. The East side is 95
percent. White. How can you take a
man who stood for everyone and
name him after a segregated
street?"
Other citizens who spoke in
opposition cited the cost of reprint-
ing letterhead and possible confu- .
sion to those unfamiliar with the
area as reasons not to change the
name.
Dr. Dave Hambar of Greenville
spoke in favor of the request.
"Greenville says, Greenville has
it all Hambar said. "You don't
have it all until you have a Dr.
Martin Luther King Drive
Some in favor of changing the
name of Fifth St. opposed changing
only portions of the street. Dwight
Foster was among the citizens who
said they wanted the entire street
named in King's honor.
"If the city of Greenville show-
cases a confederate statute that
overtly states anti-America, anti-
social harm, then surely they can
unopposedly approve not only the
west side of Fifth St but the entire
street
Tim Barbar said he brought a
"petition signed by 2,000 Greenville
residents, who opposed the change.
"This is a three part issue
Barbar said. "The first is should we
have a memorial for Martin Luther
King Jr.? The second, should we
rename Fifth St, and the third, is it
appropriate to have this Fifth St. as
his memorial?"

Phi Kappa Psi fraternity rhakes sizeable
donation to Greenville Community Shelter
Fraternity presented
deck totaling $1,217
Carolyn Hyde
staff whiter
Phi Kappa Psi continues the tradi-
tion of donating funds to the
Greenville Community Shelter
with the presentation of a check for
$1,217. The March 30 event
marked the eighth year the frater-
nity has contributed to the Shelter.
Bryce Wagoner, philanthropy
and public relations chairperson for
Phi Kappa Psi, was on hand to offi-
cially present the check to Lynne
James, executive director of the
shelter.
James said the money was
received at a very needed time.
Beyond the everyday needs and
expenses of the shelter; approxi-
mately three weeks ago, the shelter
had a break-in resulting in almost
$4,000 worth of property damage.
"We will use some of the money
towards our insurance deductible
James said. "A portion will be
applied to the general operating
budget, and allocated portions will
be used for repairs needed due to
the recent break-in
She praised the members of the
fraternity saying that a bond has
emerged between the two organiza-
tions.
"A relationship has formed with
members of the fraternity over the
last few years James said. "Not
only do the fraternity brothers show
up on cleaning days, but other days
as well
Phi Kappa Psi was founded at
ECU on Oct. 26,1991. According to
Wagoner, the fraternity is technical-
ly a social association, but also
serves as a well rounded member of
the community and said their motto
"the great joy of serving Sifters"
holds true.
"At present, there are 19 active
brothers and six pledges Wagoner
said. "Members of the fraternity
gave much time and energy to
make this fund-raising event a real-
ity: more than 500 hours on this par-
ticular project. The wheels of
motion began in October 1997.
Mark Fcrrell, manager of Pantana
Bob's, was a big help
The benefit, held at Pantana
Bob's sponsored by the members
of the fraternity is known as
"COOL-AID This project serves
a dual purpose�not only docs it
promote up and coming bands, but
also the money raised is con-
tributed toward the community
activity in which Phi Kappa Psi is
involved. Along with donations of
time and money, several local busi-
nesses, such as Kinko's, and 103.7
HOT FM, also lend support to this
project.
Wagoner said the event was part
of the fraternity's goal to give back
to the community, and not a race
against other university clubs.
"After much hard work and
planning, I want to stress that this is
not competition among the
Greeks Wagoneer said. "Our ulti-
mate goal is unity. Returning good
deeds to the community is a com-
mon purpose we share
The fraternity's donation last
year was $650, but that total was
doubled this year. Wagoner said
the goal for next year's fund raising
event is $1,500 to $2,000.
"This is the largest donation by
any one single fraternity on cam-
pus, and we are really proud of this
accomplishment Wagoner said.
"We are such privileged people: it
feels nice to give something back

Consistency is important to us human beings. Nobody can argue that notion. Against any
opinion all those psychologists, sociowhatsits and pundits may have about human nature, there
are certain things we as a people and as an individual always do.
Consistency is ingrained in our spirits� the need to find stability, a finite thing, an end if
you will, drives us from an even deeper level of our minds than our need for change. When
things shift and snap and become terribly different it makes us uneasy. Just like plate tecton-
ics, that geological system involving earthquakes. Remember the San Andreas fault in
California? You get the picture.
In keeping with the consistency in our natures, we tend to assign importance to regular
occurrences, and this (very generally) is where tradition is born. When something happens on
a regular basis, like the holidays or birthdays or weddings, we humans observe the event with
certain customs and practices. Springtime is here again, and we at ECU celebrate its onset out
of doors with an event called Barefoot on the Mall.
Now the tectonic plates are shifting madly beneath us. Barefoot is approaching but our mall
will be inaccessible. The university's department of keeping up with the Joneses have decid-
ed that a mall beautification makeover must take place. This is fine, see, they've done a smash-
ing job on Wright Plaza and that corner of 5th and Reade, but their timing is a little screwy
regarding this mall rehaul.
Half the poirjt of having Barefoot is having it on the Mall, you know, thus the name. The
event will take place around Mendenhall. Barefoot on the Mendenhall just doesn't sound right.
It's all clinical and sterile and institutional. Such a phrase invokes shudders. Barefoot on the
Mendenhall sounds more like a corporate workshop for Dilbert disciples (complete with PC
jargon and plenty of motivational aphorisms) than a fun, shirtless day in the sunshine.
This violation of our human need for consistency could have been avoided by a touch of bet-
ter consideration when the beautification thingummy was planned. If there is a reason why the
facilities services department was instructed to begin revamping the mall when they and the
entire city of Greenville knew that Barefoot was due to occur, it would be nice to know. Letters
to the editor regarding this matter are welcome and encouraged.

Chocolate controls columnist
there is something about
chocolate I can't explain. It's
a primal urge that will not
rest until it's quenched.
There is absolutely nothing in the
entire world that is even remotely
comparable to the delicacy that is a
Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie from
Chili's. I have tasted many things in
my lifetime, but never had any-
thing truly made me drool like a
dog at the sound of the can opener
until I wrapped my lips around a
warm, buttery hunk of Paradise
covered with ice cream and a sauce
that I wish came out of my tap
every time I turned it on. Yes, my
friends, this is Paradise.
I know what month it is. I realize
that in weeks, mere WEEKS, I will
be on a beach, mounds of pasty
skin hanging over my bathing suit,
forcing small children to shriek and
run away in horror at the very sight.
Should this deter me from
indulging in my love, my one and
only vice? Probably. Does it? Nope.
I really try to be healthy. I do. I
exercise daily � well, almost.
Three times a week. Sometimes.
All right, I go when I have time,
okay? And I eat very sensibly �
almost all fruits and veggies (and
Spaghetti-O's, but only when I'm
in a hurry). But there is something
about chocolate I can't explain. It's
a primal urge that will not rest until
it's quenched. So I believe I am
completely absolved of any and all
responsibility when it comes to the
gooey brown substance. Anything
that I do when chocolate is
involved is beyond my control.
For example, most people try to
impress their dates, especially
when it's a first date, with stuff like
table manners and general cleanli-
ness. I also subscribe to this philos-
ophy, until some poor fool brings
around the dessert cart. It's every
man for himself after that, and I'll
be damned if anybody is getting a
bite of my cake. Whether it's
Ragazzi's Kentucky Derby Pie or
The Olive Garden's Tiramisu (not
chocolate, but close enough), my
lucky date gets to witness the most
indecent display of disgusting
pigishness this side of the mud pie
eating contest. I don't eat it. I wal-
low in it. Then I lick the plate.
Public events also pose a prob-
lem. Wedding receptions in partic-
ular are a big threat. A big steaming
pot of chocolate fondue surrounded
by strawberries and other such
foods which really only serve as
vehicles for the chocolate in my
mind, makes me smile like nothing
else. Every Easter some little kid
doubts my complete lack of self
control and maturity and loses a fin-
ger or two trying to take a Cadbury
cream egg out of my basket. If
there's is a pinata with Tootsie Rolls
inside, someone is going to get hurt
if they so much as attempt a grab at
one.
When I was little, I used to have
this reoccurring dream that every-
thing in my house was made of
chocolate and I could just go from
room to room eating furniture.
Sound like a sickness? It is. But
I take comfort in knowing that I am
not alone; there are others who
share in my plight. And deep down
I know some day I will find that
house where everything is made of
chocolate and I will go from room
to room eating furniture. Until
then, it's a good idea not to come
between me and the fondue pot If
you want to keep all your fingers.

Clinton's Africa trip a success
President Clinton, a brother
who was just born white, is a
hero in the minds and hearts
of millions of sub-Saharan
Africans. His recent six-
nation tour of Africa was met
with glee and a renewed sense
of hope.
For innumerable decades, United
States presidents have neglected
and ignored sub-Saharan Africa
becuase of mythical stereotypes,
which have been debunked time
after time. Too many Americans
regard Africa as a place where sav-
ages and ignorant dark-skinned
people run around in a rambunc-
tious fashion. Due to ignorance,
many college students buy into
those unfair stereotypes and fail to
learn about the wealth of talents
and rich resources on the continent.
Well, college students and others
must wake up, "smell the coffee
and get a dose of reality. President
Clinton, a brother who was just
bom white, is a hero in the minds
and hearts of millions of sub-
Saharan Africans. His recent six-
nation tour of Africa was" met with
glee and a renewed sense of hope.
Clinton, the first American presi-
dent to to make such a tour of
Africa, received a warm welcome in
Accra, Ghana, his first stop. There
well-wishers were falling, calling,
stumbling and fumbling to get a
handshake from the charismatic
President Clinton, so reminiscent
of John F. Kennedy. About half a
million people pushed forward, in
almost a stampede, to meet and
greet the young visionary president
who wants to open the floodgates of
opportunities for Africa. As a matter
of fact, Clinton promised to loan
Ghana $67 million to help them
build power plants and other neces-
sities. Ghanaian President Jerry
Rawlings was elated. Clinton's trip
was designed to bolster trade and
investments. After all, investments
mean opening markets and provid-
ing jobs for the African people and
Americans.
The Clintons visited Uganda,
the second leg of the tour. There,
Clinton met with President Yoweri
Musevini and apologized for the
way America has neglected Africa.
He also said that the buying of
slaves by Americans was wrong. In
a local village, a two-day old baby
was named "Bill Clinton Clinton,
well-received, promised $120 mil-
lion to help train Ugandan teachers
and connect classes to the Internet.
He also pledged $16 million to fight
AIDS and malaria. Uganda, who
lost over 800,000 people during
brutal dictatorships of the 1970s
and 1980s, has come a long way.
Clinton urged the government to
embrace economic reforms.
Clinton proceeded to Rwanda, a
country recently torn due to geno-
cides involving Hutus and Tutsis,
Clinton pledged $30 million to
build a strong judicial system
around the Great Lakes area of the
Congo, Rwanda and Burundi. He
also promised $2 million for the
genocide survivor fund. Rwandans
gladly welcomed Clinton's arrival.
On Wednesday, March 25,
Rwandan President Pasteur
Bizimungu and Ugandan President
Musevini joined Clinton to listen to
their national anthems. Bizimungu
and Musevini see Clinton as a
respectable friend available to offer
their people a touch of humanitari-
anism.
Many sub-Saharan Africans suf-
fer from poverty, malaria and other
diseases, hunger and malnutrition,
educational deficiencies and
numerous other woes. Millions of
children go to bed hungry and die
like flies because of neglect from
the West and other countries that
should have come to the aid of
Africa long ago. If Americans can
send billions of dollars to countries
like Israel and Egypt (Northern
Africa), surely they can help mil-
lions of "down-and-out" Africans
help themselves. I admire Clinton's
courage, benevolence and heartfelt
commitment to the good, atjibi-
tious people of sub-Saharan Africa.
Had Kennedy not been assassinat-
ed, he probably would have gone
into the Congo or neighboring
African countries on a goodwill mis-
sion. In any event, Clinton deserves
an A for a job well done.

In November, the ECU School of
Medicine, working through the
Center for Drug and Alcohol Abuse
Studies, introduced a revolutionary
new program called DrinkWise to
the region.
Aimed at stopping "problem
drinkers" before they become
true alcoholics, DrinkWise origi-
nated eight years ago in Canada and
has become an effective way, of
reducing habitual drinking among
non-alcoholics in Great Britain,
Australia and Canada.
Dr. Fredrick Glaser of the
Center for Drug and Alcohol Abuse
Studies praised the program's
"extraordinary benefits" and suc-
cess rate, which he cited at better
than 70 percent.
"It's a preventive program he
said. "Most of the participants
understand at some level that
drinking is a problem for them
Although the aim of DrinkWise
is to help heavy drinkers gain con-
trol of their habits, alcoholics are not
treated. Participants usually have
jobs, friendships and marriages
which are not threatened by the
drinking. The problem is that their
lives are not functioning at an opti-
mum level. Often, participants are
diabetics for whom drinking pre-
sents a health problem.
Unlike the traditional
Alcoholics
Anonymous
approach to
drinking, which
caters to alco-
holics and
demands total
lifelong absti-
nence from alco-
hol, DrinkWise
targets people
who can still
make their own
decisions about
drinking.
"People arc
allowed to
select their goal: abstinence or mod-
erate drinking said Glaser.
According to Program Director
Teresa Edmundson, the important
Stopping the problem before it starts
PHOTO COURTESY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
thing is to bring a person's decision
to drink up to a conscious level.
Participants are taught to identify
situations in
which drinking is
used to cope, or in
which drinking is
an automatic
action.
Edmundson
advocates "using
your mind and
your actions to
alter your behav-
ior She uses a
stoplight as an
analogy to explain'
to participants
what she means:

activate drinking. They give
drinkers the "green light"

As sophomore efforts go, second
releases are never expected to be as
11 strong as the debut. However, as
recent signees to Chicago's
Bloodshot Records label, Melissa
Swingle and her band have defied
the odds and put out another per-
fect album with Smelling Salts.
What is most compelling about
this fine band from Chapel Hill is
that on the surface they may seem
like just another jangly, twangy,
country-rock band. However,
Trailer Bride is not a band that you
can decide if you love or loathe on
the first listen, and they are not to
be dismissed as redneck shtick.
With a lineup including Melissa
Swingle singing and playing her
many guitars, Brad Goolsby on
drums and Daryl White on stand
up bass, the talent alone is enough
to push this album forward.

their drinking habits and, through
individual and group counseling,
determine how to use what
Edmundson calls "pacing strate-
gies" to cut back.
DrinkWise can help teens get a
handle on their drinking as well as
adults, but by recognizing and treat-
ing adolescent drinking problems,
the program exposes itself to criti-
cism. Although, according to Glaser,
DrinkWise does not condone
underage drinking, "It seems a
shame that underage drinkers
would be barred from this kind of
help on a technicality he said.
Controversy aside, DrinkWise
offers new options to the 40,000,000
Americans who are not alcoholics
but who simply want to reduce
their alcohol intake for health, psy-
chological, work or relationship rea-
sons.
Boogie
Nights

70s
IfHuck wore

The Gibb Droll Band graced a
small crowd of downtown-ees with
an all but explosive show last
Friday night at the Attic. As the
town natives might recall (that is if
they were not already plastered),
there was a tornado warning in Pitt
County effective for that evening
which might have led to the small
numbers about that night.
Nevertheless, they should all have
been at the Attic.
Our evening began with the
smoothadelic sounds of Sunny
Wheat, a Greenville based band
that philled the phorum with phat
phunk jams. They arc a five-piece
(the fifth and newest member
plays bongos and percussion).
They have a funkrock style com-
parable to Widespread Panic and
God Street Wine with groovy bass
lines and wah wah guitar that calls a
horde of hippies from the masses
out to dance. Sunny Wheat deliv-
ered for about 45 minutes and then
handed the stage over to the Gibb
Droll Band.
The first note of the song "Bama
Gray from the band's first record
Dharma, erupted like a volcano and
the show was underway. Gibb is not
known to use a set list and it is quite
impressive to watch this man lead a
group of four of the greatest musi-
cians from this area through song
after song that are in GDBs reper-
toire.
Gibb rattled off a few other
tunes and then changed pace and
flowed into a new tune called
"Mexico With a voice of pure soul
Blues brothers
PHOTO COURTESY OF METRO TALENT GROUP
and a melody lonely enough to
make one cry, "Mexico" elevated
the crowd to another state of mind
as Gibb moaned, "I am broke down
in old town New Mexico
The most excellent quality of
the Gibb Droll band is how well the
musicians play and improvise
together. As in Jazz, when musi-
cians improvise, they have a certain
etiquette so that a solo is not too
long or short and so on. It is the
same within the Gibb Droll Band;
each member will get a shot at a
solo and they all shine in their own
special way, always being awed at
and applauded by the crowd.

Mark Whalberg gives good

PHOTO COORTESY OF NEW LINE CINEMA
The only difference between
Boogie Nights and Huckleberry Finn is
all the sex. Well, okay, not really.
Boogie Nights doesn't have any river
rafts, either. But they're both classic
American coming-of-age tales;
Huck just doesn't get laid as much.
Set in the wonderful world of
70s porn, Boogie Nights chronicles
the rise and fall of Dirk Diggler
(Mark Wahlberg), a young man
with a little something extra
between his legs. "Everyone has a
special talent Dirk philosophizes,
and he decides to share his talent
with the world.
But this film isn't just about sex;
like all good coming-of-age talcs, it
paints a portrait of its times. And
the picture Boogie Nights paints of
the 1970s isn't pretty. Or rather, it's
very pretty, but not much else. To
the delight of me and everyone else
who hates our nation's current wor-
ship of the decade, Boogie Nights
exposes the shallowncss of the 70s,
as exemplified through its pornog-
raphy.

the hero of the day, "Bullet the
Blue Sky" was dangerously critical
of American politics. At the height
of America's fascination with
' cocaine and heroin, "Running to
; Stand Still" revcaTeid'the blistering
stark despair of drug addiction.
The love songs of the '80s were
usually soaringly romantic.
' Compared to the epic romances of
'80s pop radio, a song like "With or
Without You" was surprisingly dark.
' In the heyday of the intense narcis-
sism of the Me Decade, U2 wrote
' songs about corporate exploitation

' squads and apartheid. In a nation of
rational atheists, "I Still Haven't
' Found What I'm Looking For a
song that reveals the band's spiritu-
al (and very, dare I say, Christian)
yearnings spent considerable time
on the charts.
Perhaps it is because the character
of U2's music was so opposite to the
cultural atmosphere of the 1980s
that it caught on. Perhaps The
Joshua Tree was the aesthetic aspirin
our nation needed. Who knows, but
eleven million Americans picked
the album up. The band filled foot-
ball stadi-
ums all over
the country,
became the
third rock
band ever to
appear on
the cover of
Time
Magazine,
won the
Grammy for
Album of
the Year in
1988 and
became the
objects of
parody in the famous comic strip
Bloom County.
1988 was most certainly the Year
of U2. With the Time cover, the tour
and the Grammy Award, American
culture became saturated with U2.
The band swept the Rolling Stone
readers and critics polls three years

in a row. Bono's lyrics became the
topic of in-depth discussions every-
where from music magazines to
highschool lunch tables.
The culmination of U2's
American popularity was the
release of
their fdllow-
up album to
JTfc Joshua
' Tree, Rattle
and Hum.
. Tecrfhically,
Rattle and
Hum was the
soundtrack to
the movie
the band
released by
the same
name.
Ireland's fab
four graced
the silver screen in late November,
and although the film didn't do so
well in the theaters, it made its
money back and was a powerhouse
in video sales. As a movie, it chron-
icled the band through their recent
tour, offering powerful concert
footage, interviews and sneak
peeks at the band in the studio.
Overwhelmed by their sudden
popularity and eager to pay homage
to their rock and roll predecessors,
the band recorded a few new songs
in the legendary Sun Studios
(where Sam
Phillips, Elvis
Presley,
Johnny Cash
and Roy
O r b i s o n
recorded) that
focused on
their rock her-
itage. "Angel
of Harlem"
was a tribute to
jazz legend
Billie Holiday; "Love Rescue Me"
was co-written by Bob Dylan;
"When Love Comes to Town" fea-
tured bluesman B.B. King.
Rattle and Hum also featured live
covers of the Beatles "Hclter
Skelter Dylan's "All Along the
Watchtower" and the live version of
"Bullet the Blue Sky U2's searing
criticism of the US's South
American politics, was prefaced by
Hendrix's equally heated rendition
'We're going
PHOTO C0URTEST
of "The Star Spangled Banner
The band also included some out-
takes from The Joshua Tret and some
concert footage.
There was considerable critical
backlash against Rattle and 'Hum,
since most
critics read
the rever-
ence to rock
legends as
arrogance,
but the pub-
lic lodged
their vote in
favor of the
band by buy-
ing almost as
many copies
of it as they had of The Joshua Tree.
Pretty soon U2 got tired of it all
though, and at the end of the 1980s,
during their New Year's Eve con-
cert, Bono announced that the band
was going to have togo away "and
think it all up again
Fans worried that this statement
was a harbinger of U2's demise, and
though the band didn't break up, in
a way, it was the death of U2. When
the band finally emerged from her-

mitage in Berlin in 1991, it was clear
that they were not the same band
they were when they walked off-
stage in early 1990. The band that
U2 had been in the '80s was no
more, and with Achtung Baby, the
band began their almost decade-
long experimentation with what we
'90s folks now call "electronica
There is no doubt that they have
gone on to make music as equally
powerful as their '80s catalogue
(despite what pop radio may think),
but I still get that old familiar feel-
ing when I listen to The Joshua Tree.
I can still remember being thirteen,
peeling the cellophane off the cas-
sette tape (remember those?) and
clumsily loading it into the tape
deck. The smell of new tape filled
my nostrils as the otherworldly
sounds of "Where the Streets Have
No Name" filled my ears. Bono's
voice wailed out the lyrics: "I want
to run, I want to hide and boy oh
boy, I wanted to run with him. And
even today, ten years later, I find
that sometimes, I still do.

the band a sound like no other.
Melissa has an unusual singing
. voice. Some would say her
I Mississippi drawl is flat, but I would
say it had character.
Truly an original, Trailer Bride
has personality. Melissa Swingle's
almost deadpan seriousness com-
bined with her crazy cowgirl outfits
creates an interesting mixture that
becomes evident on this CD as she
sings about her conflicts between
being a stay-at-home mom and a
rock star on the road. In "Porch
Song" she sings about someone
who can only sing "true and right"
on her porch, "Cause I get scared
under them honky-tonk lights On
"Wildness perhaps the best song
on the CD, Melissa and the band
are really rocking with Melissa's
powerful signature chord changes
and her Mississippi-born drawl
coming out.
This album is perfect. Sweet
melodies, just the right amount of
twang and that catchy jangle make
it nearly impossible to get this
music out of your head. With a per-
cussion section including tam-
bourine, and an amajigger (Trailer
Bride aptly names this the shaker
thing in their credits) and other
instruments like the banjo, man-
dolin, harmonica, and saw (yep, a
real saw that Melissa plays with a
violin bow) how could you not be
interested. Some songs are more
like lullabies while others take the
rock 'n roll approach. "Yoohoo
River "Cowgirl" and "Show
Bizness" are good old foot stom-
pers. Hell, they all are.

A great number of new songs
were played Friday night. "New"
meaning not yet released on an
album. Among these were an
unusually poppy song titled "Left
Side revealing an inner Stevie
Wonder that Gibb has been keep-
ing in .the closet. In past shows, the
band has been known to cover the
song "Big Brother" from Stevie
Wonder's Talking Book album, so
perhaps this is the reason that the
song emerged. The other tune is a
hard rocker Gibb referred to as the
"Indian Song Let's hope this is on
their upcoming album.
When you see Gibb Droll in
concert, you are forever changed.
Those who are musicians or have a
deep love for music
can probably best
understand how
Gibb feels the
music. The man
feels every note that
resonates from his
fingers, whether he
is mournfully play-
ing a slow solo in a
B.B. King feel or
whether he is scurry-
ing across the stage
and shaking his head
in a frenzy in a SRV
pose.
Gibb Droll is usu-
ally always on a mis-
sion to please the

lacked his band mates, he still
packed a punch.
There have been plans for a
while to release a live record so that
fans can capture this unique experi-
ence on a record and reminisce
about the time they saw Gibb, or
hope for a future time when they
can. The live CD has been on hold,
however, because the band just
cannot agree on songs and a good
sound for a live record. Whether
this happens or not, we fans will
always have the experience of see-
ing the Gibb Droll Band imprinted
in our long term memory as our
brains call out for more, as if addict-
ed to a drug. Until then, we play our
memory like the piper and wait
anxiously for the next show.

The Bible says that on that first Easter morning, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests aU that had happened. And when they had assembled with the elders and
counseled together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers and said, "You are to say, �His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we were asleep And if this should come to the
governor's ears, we will win him over and keep you out of trouble And they took the money and did as they had been instructed Matthew 28:11 However, Jesus said, "Thus it is written that the
Christ should suffer and rise again from the dead the third day Luke 24:46 Then "He appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one rime" I Corinthians 15:6

Theyconquered
everything Exit death.
Past world rulers like Alexander the Great, Tutankhamen and Julius Caesar have all had one thing in
common: the past. They're stuck in it. It makes more sense to follow a ruler who has conquered
deathand a world leader who promises to someday rule the world through peace.
Jesus Christ is that ruler. He claimed to be God, was crucified for our sins, and then rose
bodily from the grave. And he promises to return to rule over the earth.

wads, so to speak. To do this, he
creates characters with lives that
they sum up in 20-words-or-Icss
speeches before they get naked.
In Dirk's screen debut, for
example, he plays an aspiring
young porn actor (quite a
stretch!). The female casting
director, five seconds after he
walks in the door, tells him,
"This film has to be a success.
If it's not, I'll be kicked out of
my house Then she strips and
gives Dirk a test run on top of
her desk.
Wow! Now that's depth!
Unfortunately, the people
behind the scenes of these porn
masterpieces aren't much deeper
themselves. They really think
they're making art here, and chang-
ing people's lives with it. "I've
saved thousands of relationships
with my films Dirk says when he
accepts his porn Oscar for "Best
Cock And he really believes it.
Fortunately for the viewer,
though, writerdirector Paul
Anderson and his actors give the
characters hidden depths that even
they don't suspect. Wahlberg
shines as the painfully stupid Dirk,
and Bun Reynolds gives a career-
saving performance as Horner.
Fargo's William H. Macy is also
great as the cuckolded assistant
director Little Bill, and even real
life porn star Nina Hartley is good
as Little Bill's blatantly unfaithful
wife.
"You want ma to do what with my what?"

But the standout performance in
Boogie Nights comes from Julianne
Moore as cocaine-addicted porn
queen Amber Waves. Amber,
denied contact with her son
through a divorce settlement,
craves a child and thus takes young
Dirk under her wing as a surrogate
son. Of course, she also wants to
sleep with him, but that contradic-
tion never seems strange to her.
These frustrations play out across
Moore's face in every scene, and
make Amber by far the most inter-
esting character in the film.
Amber's blindness to her own
emotional problems is common to
all the characters in Boogie Nights,
however. Despite their lives of con-
stant sex and drugs, they're inno-
cents, more like children than
adults. But that innocence exem-
plifies the 70s. In a time when
birth control was plentiful and
most venereal diseases could be
taken care of with a shot of peni-
cillin, sex was the most innocent
thing in the world.
But that innocence couldn't last.
With the '80s came more serious
diseases, and a more conservative
nation. Porn had to change, and not
ail of our heroes cope with those
changes well. Dirk, in partMMiT,
falls pretty far before the film's end.
So if you're a 70s fanatic, see
Boogie Nights but be wary. Its view of
everyone's favorite decade, though
loving, is not all sweetness and
�light. And if, like me, you hate the
70s and everything they stand for,
laugh at the clothes and go along for
the ride. It's well-worth the price of
the rental.
Mishap

repetitively to the point of hypno-
sis, could be so mundane.
Naturally, the overrated standard
roots-rock instruments (organ and
harmonica) are used to excess on
this track.
"April's Cold" is also chock-full
o' used-up riffs set to the usual
insipid drum loop. "Soleless" is an
unexciting, recycled version of
"Statue" tuned down a step and
"freshened up" with a new intro.
The madhouse quality of
"Sterile Jacket" very nearly
redeems the track, but "sterile" is
the best adjective for this one. The
grainy, grimy rawness of blues and
rock are sanded away for a
smoother presentation of an old-
fashioned song. Bad idea.
"Sick of My Head" is another
listless echo of bad-ass rock, clever-
ly disguised as elevator music for
hippies. I found myself wondering,
"Do these people just sit down in
the morning and scramble the same
five chords around until they get a
combination they didn't use the
day before, then congratulate them-
selves on having written 'original'
material?"
The only songs I really liked
were the lasts two. "Disturbance"
opens with some mean mandolin
pickin then evolves into a decent
instrumental hoe.down1Mjshap dis-
play fine musiciarTsnip, as this song
demonstrates.
The quiet, retrospective "School
Bus" is a good closing track, but the
song is not as fully developed as it
could be. Some of the more beauti-
ful moments are sandwiched
between harsher chords which
make the song a bit awkward and
restrict the flow of the music.
Roots rock is becoming one of
those musical trends which starts
by rehashing itself and borrowing
heavily from its own style, creating
an unnatural inbred child whose
demise is certain. The question is,
when, oh, when will that be?

SENIOR WRITER
The ECU women's tennis team
continued their undefeated CAA
play as they matched up against
UNC Wilmington on the road
April 2. The Lady Pirates
grabbed their third conference
win over the Seahawks, 9-1.
ECU's Ann Svae, Asa Ellbring,
and Mona Eek controlled the top

Lady Pirate softball kicks off
conference play with three wins
Team goes 3-1 over
the weekend
TRAVIS BAKKLEY
SENIOR WRITER
The ECU softball team began
Big South Conference play on a
tear, winning three of four games
in Virginia over the weekend.
The Pirates were led by ace
Dcnise Reagan, who got the
decision in all three victories.
On Friday the Pirates split a
doubleheader with Radford. ECU
was shut out in the first game by
Highlander pitcher Jennifer
Shellhammer, 2-0. Shellhammer
allowed only three hits while
striking out five in the complete
game victory. Pirate starter Jami
Bendle took the loss and fell to 9-
6.
The second game saw ECU
score single runs in the first, third
and sixth innings en route to a 3-2
victory. Pirate starter Reagan
struck-out five in the complete
game four-hitter.
At the plate the Pirates were
led by Junior slugger Isonette
Polonius and Freshman leadoff
hitter Keisha Shepperson.
Polonius went 2-3 with a stolen
base, run scored and RBI.
Shepperson went 2-4, scored a
run and drove in one.
Shepperson said Shellhammer
was successful in the first game,
but not overpowering.
"She didn't throw slow
Shepperson said. "She threw a
riseball that kept us off balance
On Saturday the Pirates
traveled to Lynchburg for a
doubleheader against Liberty.
The Pirates had to rally from a
3-0 deficit in the first game before
winning 6-5 in extra innings.
Nicki Andrews hit an RBI double
with two outs in the seventh to
draw the Pirates within one.
Shepperson followed with a
clutch RBI single to left that tied
the score at three. ECU scored
twice in the eighth, only to see
Liberty score two of their own.
Reagan then replaced starter Lisa
Paganini and shut down Liberty
the rest of the way. Shepperson
hit another RBI single in the
ninth for the game-winner.

Whereas the Pirates posted
wins at No. 2, 3, 4 and 6 singles
against Barton College, two days
later they also suffered losses at
the same No. 2, 3, 4 and 6 singles
spots against the Tribe of William
and Mary. All eight matches were
decided in two straight sets.
The No. 2 match between
senior Nils Alomar and W&M's
Alexander Socters was the
clincher, with Soeters winning 7-
5,5-2.
The men's team current
strength lies in their doubles
performance. The Pirate Netters
won the doubles point against
Barton College by winning at No.
2 and No. 3 doubles, and they
swept all three doubles for the
first time this season against
W&M.
"I think we found the right
mixture for our doubles now
Head Coach Bill Moore said. "If
everybody recovers from injury,
we will win some of those close
matches we had over the last
weeks
According to Moore, the
Pirates should put up some good
fights at the conference
tournament on April 17. "VCU is
the undisputed favorite for the
conference title, but we will fight
for the second spot with ODU,
W&M and Richmond Moore
said.
Richmond will also be the
opponent in the Pirates' next
season match which will be
hosted by the Spiders today at
2:30 p.m.
If their series of ups and downs
keeps going on, the Pirates should
return from Richmond with their
ninth victory in their pocket.

PAIN KILLER.
F or fast relief from the nagging ache of taxes, we
recommend TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs are tax-
deferred annuities that can help you build additional
assets �money that can make the difference between
living and living urll in retirement.
Contributions to SRAs are conveniently deducted
from your salary on a pretax basis. The result? More
money invested. Fewer taxes now. And since investment
earnings are tax deferred until you receive them as
income, the money you don't send to Washington can
work even harder for you.
What else do SRAs offer? A full range of investment
choices, a helpful luan feature, and the financial expertise
of TIAA-CRKF, the world's largest retirement system.0

Kenyan Jackson Kabiga
wins Paris Marathon
PARIS (AP) � Kenya's Jackson
Kabiga won the 22nd Paris
Marathon on Sunday in a record
time for the race of two hours,
nine minutes and 36 seconds
while Australia's Nicole Caroll
won the women's race. Kabiga
swept away the earlier record for
the Paris Marathon that was set in
1992 by Luis Soarcs of France
with a time of two hours, ten
minutes and three seconds. Caroll
also broke the previous time for
women in the Paris Marathon,
running the race in two hours, 27
minutes and six seconds. The
earlier record had been held by
Man Tanigawa of Japan, who won
in 1994 with a time of two hours,
27 minutes and 55 seconds. Some
22,000 participants took off
promptly at 9 a.m. (0700 GMT)
on the Champs Elysees. The
finish was on the elegant Avenue
Foch.
Damian Rhodes makes 21
saves, records fifth
shutout this season
BUFFALO, NY. (AP) �Damian
Rhodes made 21 saves and
recorded his fifth shutout this
season as the Ottawa Senators
beat the Buffalo Sabres 1-0
Sunday. Daniel Alfredsson scored
the only goal when he deflected a
shot from the point past Dominik
Hasek in the second period as the
Senators extended their unbeaten
streak to four games. Ottawa
moved four points ahead of the
Carolina Panthers for the final
playoff spot in the Eastern
Conference while Buffalo missed
an opportunity to move into a tie
for fourth place in the conference
with Washington.
Rhodes played well but was
hardly tested in picking up his
eighth career shutout. In his last
one, Rhodes stopped 23 shots in a
0-0 tie with the Pittsburgh
Penguins.
NY Rangers beat Chicago
CHICAGO (AP) � The New
York Rangers beat Chicago on
Daniel Goneau's goal 1:24 into
overtime but were eliminated
from playoff contention when
Ottawa defeated Buffalo.
Goneau's goal, which ended an
eight-game winless streak for the
Rangers (0-7-1), was set up by
Niklas Sundstrom, who scored the
Rangers' other goal.
New York, outs hot 31-17, got a
strong effort from goaltender
Mike Richter. It was the first time
the Rangers missed the playoffs
since 1993 and just the third time
since 1978. The Rangers defeated
Chicago for the first time since
Jan. 16, 1994 and ended a six-
game winless streak (0-5-1)
against the Blackhawks. Tony
Amonte scored his 200th career
NHL goal for Chicago, which has
lost four of its last five.
New Jersey snaps
losing streak
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
(AP) � Patrik Elias scored his
second goal of the game early in
the third period and New Jersey
snapped a season-high three-
game losing streak with a win over
Phoenix. Martin Brodeur, who
picked up his third assist of the
season on Elias' game-winner,
made only 13 saves in winning his
43rd game of the season, four shy
of Bemie Parent's single-season
NHL record set 23 years ago.
Scott Niedermayer also scored
for New Jersey, which surpassed
the 100-point mark (101) for the
second straight year and moved a
little closer to winning its first
President's Trophy for best
regular season record. The Devils
hold a four-point lead over both
Dallas and Detroit. Cliff Ronning
and Jeremy Roenick scored for
Phoenix, which lost for only the
second time in six games (4-2),
both times to the Devils.
Panthers claw Penguins
MIAMI (AP)�Kirk Muller
scored the game-winner with 4:30
left and Kirk McLean had 33
saves as the Florida Panthers
defeated the struggling Pittsburgh
Penguins. The victory, Florida's
fifth in its last six games, couldn't
prevent the Panthers from being
eliminated from the playoffs for
the first time in three years.
Earlier in the day, Ottawa
defeated Buffalo 1-0, officially
knocking the Panthers from the
playoff race. Pittsburgh, which is
on its way to the Northeast
Division tide with 91 points, lost
for the third time in four games
and is 1-4-2 in its last seven.
British star wins
Freeport-McDermott
NEW ORLEANS (AP) � Lee
Westwood now has victories on
every continent but two. After
getting his first U.S. victory and
seventh overall title Sunday by
winning the Freeport-
McDermott Classic, the 24-year-
old British golfer now only needs
titles in South America and Africa
to run the board.
"Maybe I'll get Africa this year,
but my main goal now is a major
Westwood said after pocketing
the dlrs 306,000 first-place check.
Westwood shot a 3-under 69
Sunday to win the tournament by
three strokes. It was his sixth
consecutive round in the 60s,
dating to the third round of The
Players Championship. His scores
for the week were 69, 68, 67 and
69 for a four-round total of 273,15-
under par. Steve Flesch, a left-
handed rookie who led after two
rounds and was one-stroke back
starting the final round, shot a
bogey-free 71 Sunday to finish
second.
"Did I think a bogey-free
round would do it? Only if I made
five or six birdies to go with it
Flesch said. "I knew the way Lee
has been playing I was going to
have to go out there and shoot. I
figured it would take 16-under to
Morgan stays on Senior PGA hot streak with five recent victories
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) � In
his 24 years on .the regular PGA
Tour, Gil Morgan often found
himself in the role of bridesmaid.
That has changed dramatically
on the Senior PGA Tour, where
Morgan has become a dominating
player.
Morgan won The Tradition for
the second straight year on
Sunday, giving him five victories
in his last nine tournaments.
Morgan, who started the round
two shots behind Tom Wargo,
finished at 12-under 276. It was
his third victory in seven official
Senior PGA Tour events this year.
He also won the Senior Slam in
March.
The win at the first senior
major of the year was worth
$210,000 and brought Morgan's
earnings to a tour-leading
$674,580 this season.
Including the Senior Slam, he's
won 11 events and more than $3
million in less than two senior
seasons.
That's a far cry from his seven
wins and total of $5.25 million in
24 years on the regular tour. He
also failed to win a major on the
PGA Tour, where he finished
second or third more than 20
times each.
Hale Irwin was the Senior
player of the year in 1997 when he
won a record-tying nine events
and earned $2.34 million, the
most ever by a golfer on any tour.
But Morgan seems to have
moved ahead of Irwin in the
dominance department.
"I was pretty good this week,
but I don't know about being the
best out here Morgan said. "In
some respects maybe I am
because I'm getting the ball up
and down and putting well.
"I've been practicing a lot and
maybe after 30 years it's starting to
pay off. I'm able to get home on
the par 5s and that's a big plus
Wargo, who held the lead after
each of the first three rounds,
struggled to a 74 and finished two
shots back. He still received the
biggest paycheck of his career,
$123,200.
Vicente Fernandez of
Argentina finished three shots
behind at 279 with a closing 69.
Irwin, with a 68, was four shots
back and Ray Floyd six behind
Morgan at Desert Mountain.
Wargo, who had made just two
bogeys in the first three rounds,
had four bogeys and a double-
bogey on Sunday. He was still
holding a two-shot lead through
six holes, but double-bogeyed the
par 3 seventh when he hit his tee
shot over the green into the water.
That left Wargo and Morgan at
11-under. Both birdied the eighth
and Wargo lost the lead for the
first time at the ninth with another
bogey when he hit an errant drive
into some rocks off the fairway.
"I'm making bogeys and he's
making birdies � that's a hard
combination to stop Wargo said.
"The putter turned cold and that
was it.
"It was the kind of round that I
really was trying to put pieces
together and I never could find all
the pieces. It was like somebody
dumped my puzzle upside
down
Morgan stretched his lead to
four shots with a birdie at No. 14,
but bogeyed the 13th and 16th,
leaving the door open for Wargo.
Leading by two, Morgan then
gambled on his approach shot at
18, putting his ball in a waste area
in front of the green. He left his
chip shot in the rough, but
managed to get up and down,
sinking a 10-foot par putt to close
out the win.
Wargo had put his chip shot 3
feet from the pin for a birdie, but
missed the putt and settled for a
par.
