American Problems Discussed
At ECU Honor Symposium
Circulation 12,000
:x?jsm.
From Suff Reports
Ten ECU professors and two
students presented
papers at the Phi Kappa Phi
honor society symposium Tues-
day and Wednesday. Themes
centered around the topic of
"What's Right With America ?
What's Wrong" and papers were
heard from the various cur-
riculums, including journalism,
foreign languages and the
sciences.
The two ECU students presen-
ting their papers were Susan
Tacker, a senior majoring in
English, and Ted F. Cash, a
senior medical student. Tacker's
paper, entitled, "Westmoreland
v. CBS: Modern Media and
Traditional Freedom of the
Press" contained information
concerning the recent $120
million lawsuit filed against CBS
by General William
Westmoreland, head of
American forces in Vietnam from
1964-68. The case was dropped
by the Westmoreland Feb. 18,
but many questions remain
unanswered.
"Today's press faces opposi-
tion from the public it ostensibly
protects Tacker said Tuesday.
"Those in power have resented
press criticism since before the
Revolutionary War in this coun-
try The Supreme Court has
managed to balance basic rights
of individuals, she added, but the
.press can not be exempt from
publishing false information,
though it may be a protected
right of the press. Only the jury
can award damages of
"malicious intent or
recklessness she said.
"Public juries don't seem to
understand the idea of malice;
the Libel Defense Center recently
reported that more than 60 per-
cent of juries return verdicts
favorable to the plaintiff, but
over two-thirds of these are
reversed on appeal Tacker said
while quoting from U.S. News
and World Report.
In a joint statement released to
the press and public 18 weeks
after suit had been filed, CBS
said "CBS never intended to
assert, and does not believe, that
General Westmoreland was un-
patriotic or disloyal in perform-
ing his duties as he saw them
"The case settled none of the
issues it raised since it never went
before a jury Tacker said.
"The old unreconciled difference
is still irreconcilable: how can we
protect a strong, free, vigorous
press and also protect an in-
dividual's right to clear his
name?"
Ted Cash's presentation
Wednesday concerned the effects
of choosing the proper method of
curing a sick patient. Like
Tacker, Cash received a
monetary award for his paper,
"A Broken Heart: Caring and
Curing in American Medicine
"I am merely a humble
medical student whose hand-
writing has not yet become illegi-
ble Cash said, "and I think
there is more to curing a patient
than doping him up with medica-
tions
He cited an example of a young
woman and her comatose
mother. The woman asked Cash
what she could do to make her
mother comfortable during her
last days. He suggested that she
record her mother's favorite song
and play it by her bedside. Even
though the terminally ill patient
could not communicate in any
fashion, a tear ran down her
cheek as she heard the song. The
daughter knew she had succeeded
in making her mother comfor-
table and possibly relieving the
pain she was going through.
"The point is Cash said,

SRA Plans Reorganization of Councils; Input Continues
By HAROLD JOYNER
Assistant Non Editor
Input was given by ECU dorm
residents Wednesday night con-
cerning the restructuring of the
Student Residence Association's
Constitution and other
reorganization within residence
hall structure.
Discussion centered on a pro-
posal to reorganize or abolish the
Area Residence Councils.
Elizabeth Page, president of
West Area said the ARCs should
be abolished for several reasons,
the main one being financial.
Students will also be able to have
more time be involved in the
dorm, she said. "1 would like to
see every group merge into SRA
and have legislators, who would
serve the purpose of relaying in-
formation back to the dorms. She
also said she would like for the
Programing Assistant to come to
SRA meetings. Currently PA's
are not required to do so.
Kevin Johnson, president of
College Hill ARC, said the coun-
cils should remain because dorm
residents are able to benefit from
area activities. "But if the
organization was reorganized,
and all the money was controlled
by SRA, the little things would be
lost He noted that the College
Hill Council has been responsible
for obtaining a volleyball court,
upkeep of a basketball court, fur-
nishing bus shelters, picnic
tables, and sidewalks at the bot-
tom of College Hill.
Wanda Battle, vice president
of Tvler dorm, said that "the
iniiiniai
tangible things the council has
done for the area were really
good She also said she felt that
a lot of information is repeated at
House meetings, so the unifica-
tion of one Council may
eliminate this repetition.
Saying that Central Campus
gets nothing from its Area Coun-
cil, the vice president of Slay
dorm said "students are more
apathetic and are not as willing to
do the things College Hill is able
to do Page also added that
money was also being wasted and
therefore dorms are not able to
plan as many activities as they
would like to do.
Elizabeth Tyson. West Area
President, said "You can't beg
people to attend meetings, or par-
ticipate in them
SRA President Debbie Gem-
bicki said SRA is in a dormant
state now and it would make
more sense to combine councils
thereby making the lines of com-
munication more open to dorm
residents. However, there could
be some problems in the abolish-
ment of the councils, and some
areas would lose more than
others, she said.
Information will be conveyed
to the residence halls and a vote
will be taken March 13, the next
SRA meeting. The Residence Life
Committee will then decide on a
course of action, Gembicki said.
Three Area presidents, SRA
president and various faculty
members make up the RLC.
Contributions Total More Than $4 Million
By JENNIFER JENDRASIAK
News Editor
Private gifts to ECU totaled
$4.2 million during 1983-84, as
compared to $2.7 million for
1982-83, according to James
Lanier, vice chancellor for In-
stitutional Advancement.
Lanier termed the year "a very
fine year" in terms of contribu-
tions. He said the primary in-
creases were in the areas of
medicine and academic pro-
grams. Of the $4.2 million, ap-
proximately $1.6 million went to
medicine, almost $1 million to
athletics and approximately $1.7
million to academic programs.
Lanier said the increase was
mostly due to heightened cor-
porate contributions, but there
Private Gifts Increase
were also big increases in in-
dividual donations. He said there
are three separate groups respon-
sible for obtaining gifts, the
Educational Foundation, the
Medical Foundation and the
ECU Foundation.
All contributions, Lanier said,
must be solicited. "Very rarely
does a gift come in unsolicited
he said. The Alumni Association
solicits contributions by direct
mail, alumni telefunds and per-
sonal solicitations, while the
Pirate Club performs basically
the same services aimed at ob-
taining athletic contribtions. The
Medical Foundation, Lanier said,
relies mostly on individual
solicitation.
Lanier said he foresees
"another excellent year" for the
ECU Foundation, adding that
they saw their "first million-
dollar year" in 1984.
The University Scholars' Pro-
gram "has proven to be a big
asset Lanier said. To date, 11
of 20 scholarships have been
funded. Seven gifts have been
received funding one scholarship
and four gifts have been received
funding two to three scholar-
ships.
"I think 1984 has set a new
standard of excellence for the In-
stitutional Advancement
divison Lanier said. "We have
built upon the strengths that were
here and we are now assembling
the tools and resources necessary
to consistently attract increasing
levels of private support form in-
dividuals and corporations

Photo Head Resigns; Jordan Assumes Duties
By JENNIFER JENDRASIAK
New Editor
Photo Lab Photographer Jon
Jordan was chosen as interim
head of the Photo Lab by the
ECU Media Board Wednesday,
following the resignation of Neil
Johnson.
Johnson said he resigned
because of "other obligations
that had to be met He said he
has a busy schedule and felt "it
would be beneficial to the Buc-
caneer and other mediums if they
get someone who has more time
to devote to the business at
hand
Jordan was selected, according
to Johnson, because "if someone
who didn't know what was cur-
rently being done in the lab had
come in, it could have detrimen-
tal effects on the schedules of
campus publications
The position has been
designated as that of interim head
because selections for new media
heads will be made in April, ac-
cording to Media Board Chair-
man Mike McPartland.
McPartland said Johnson "has
done a tine job, but meeting
deadlines has been a bit too much
with his schedule He added
that he felt there would be a
"smooth transition
"Jon said, he knows the ropes
and I'm sure he'll continue to
keep up the quality of the lab's
work McPartland said.
Jordan, 23, a Chemistry ma-
jor, said he doesn't foresee any
problems in meeting deadlines
for campus publications, "I'm
just trying to deal with what hap-
pens as it happens he said.
WASHINGTON (UPI) ? The
Supreme Court ruled 5-4
Wednesday that the Environmen-
tal Protection Agency may ex-
empt individual industrial plants
from national clean water stan-
dards limiting the discharge of
pollutants.
The ruling was a victory for the
Reagan administration and the
chemical industry which had
challenged a lower court's deter-
mination that the government
agency could not grant variances
from national rules for treating
toxic chemicals before they are
dumped into public waterways.
Although few such variances
have been given so far, industry
complained it would be saddled
with very high costs if required to
meet national clean water stan-
dards. But environmental groups
warned that the companies were
simply trying to delay compliance
with standards ordered by the
Clean Water Act.
The statute directs the EPA to
set national standards for in-
dustrial discharge of treated toxic
waste ? pollutants that have
been at least partially cleansed
before flowing into lakes and
streams.
In a second opinion Wednes-
day, the Supreme Court, comply-
ing with the wishes of Congress,
unanimously ruled that money
withheld for income taxes and
Social Security is part of a fami-
ly's income for the purpose of
calculating eligibility for welfare
grants.
A lower court had ruled that
states should consider net rather
than gross income when deter-
mining eligibility and benefits. In
reversing that ruling, the
Supreme Court acknowledged
that Congress already had
enacted legislation to settle the
controversy.
In the water pollution case,
Justice Byron White wrote for
the majority that the high court
should not second guess EPA's
interpretation of the Clean Water
Act.
"EPA's construction (of the
statute), fairly understood, is not
inconsistent with the language,
goals or operation of the Act.
Nor does the administration of
EPA's regulation undermine the
will of Congress
Led by Justice Thurgood Mar-
shall, four justices took exception
to the court's ruling, saying the
environmental agency had taken
action "inconsistent with the
clear intent of Congress

Effects Of Cuts Widen

(CPS) ? Banking leaders are
scurrying to head off an obscure
provision of the Reagan ad-
ministration's package of pro-
posed student financial aid cuts
they say threatens to kill the
whole student loan program.
The administration wants to
cut the amount of money
Washington pays banks when
they make student loans.
The loans, of course, carry in-
terest rates lower than the bank
could get if it used the money for
standard commercial loans. To
encourage banks to loan the
money to students instead, the
government pays banks the dif-
ference between regular interest
rates and student loan interest
rates.
The administration wants to
cut payments to banks by $150
million next year. It argues banks
can still make a reasonable profit
on student loans.
Not so, say the bankers.
"These loans are not high pro-

IL New victims East Carolina
(CPS) ? Banking leaders are
scurrying to head off an obscure
provision of the Reagan ad-
ministration's package of pro-
posed student financial aid cuts
they say threatens to kill the
whole student loan program.
The administration wants to
cut the amount of money
Washington pays banks when
they make student loans.
The loans, of course, carry in-
terest rates lower than the bank
could get if it used the money for
standard commercial loans. To
encourage banks to loan the

government pays banks the dif-
ference between regular interest
rates and student loan interest
rates.
The administration wants to
cut payments to banks by $150
million next year. It argues banks
can still make a reasonable profit
on student loans.
Not so, say the bankers.
"These loans are not high pro-
fit loans as it is now says Joe
Belew, government relations
director for the Consumer Banks
Association.
"If this reduction goes
through, it would virtually kill
the entire government-
guaranteed student loan pro-
gram he says
"The program would not be
workable or attractive for
bankers anymore adds Floyd
Stoner of the American Bankers
Association.
Although bankers as a rule
have considerable succes defen-
ding their turf in Congress, bank-
ing leaders noted that this is the
first time they've had to fight the
Reagan administration over stu-
dent loans.
One key higher education of-
ficial agrees the threat to the loan
program is real. "I'm satisfied
this should be taken seriously
says Jean Frohlicher, who repre-
seants state higher education loan
agencies.
"I asked a group of bankers
what they thought of the lower
reimbursement rate and they
laughed she adds.
But the bankers worry the cut
may prove politically attractive.
At issue is the "special
allowance" banks receive from
the federal government to make
up for the difference between the
low interest rates on Guaranteed
Student Loans (currently eight
percent) and the interest rates
banks would be able to earn loan-
ing the money to the private sec-
tor.
The government computes the
subsidy by adding 3.5 percent to
the interest rate on 90-day
treasury bills, and subtracting the
interest rate the student pays.
The administration wants to
reduce it to 1.5 percent on top of
the interest rate for 90-day
treasury bills while the student is
in college, and 3 percent
therafter.
Bankers say it would wipe out
banks' profits on student loans.
Instead, the bankers want to
give students eligible for college
loans an open line of credit they
could tap to meet college ex-
penses.
Students, the government and
banks would save the time and
expense involved in renewing
loans each year, they argue.
Under the proposal, students
simply would certify each year
their financial situation had not
changed since the previous year.
The bankers also are proposing
that students and their colleges
jointly cash the loan checks.
"That
political
would eliminate the
repercussions of the
anectdotal stories of students us-
ing their loans to buy cars and the
like says Carl Modecki, the
CBA's president.

Break
Remember These Rules
Wooooow Holy sh No
class for a week. For a week It's
Spring Break. And, as the movie
teasers say, get ready for the raun-
chiest, rowdiest, get-drunk-fall-
do wn-get-back-up-and-go-some-
more week of your life. That's
right, the main reason most of us
come to college for in the first
place has arrived ? the chance to
party in Florida ? especially Ft.
Lauderdale, the sun and sin capital
of the college world.
For those of you who've never
been, well, just listen to those who
have.
"You bake in the sun and drink
on the beach in the day, have some
frozen drinks in early evening and
then drink and party all night.
You're burnt out by the third
day says a Chapel Hill senior.
And what's it like along the
Lauderdale strip. Well, just listen:
"It is wall-to-wall people and a
great opportunity to meet people
from all different schools said
an anonymous junior from Fayet-
teville.
Then of course there is the
Bahamas, or Disney World (for
the meek and mouse at heart), or
Skiing or, well, home to the folks.
But we just want to tell you the
main things to remember to do
during the next ten days.
Sleep. We know you got enough
missing your eight o'clock classes,
but you did get up for your ten,
right. Well, you deserve that hard-
earned rest. Just remember to
snooze until noon, get up, go to
the bathroom and go back for four
more hours. This should get you
well-rested for the rest of the
semester. Then, maybe, just
maybe, you'll make the eights the
rest of the year.
Eat. If you're at home. Yes,
there you will re-discover the
vegetable. Most are green, and
even though they taste bad, you'll
store up enough of what's good for
you for the rest of the year of piz-
za, hot dogs and spaghettios. Also,
drink plenty of milk. We don't
know why, but just do it.
Don't study. We know you've
done enough of it already. (Hah!)
You'll have plenty of time for that
when you get back. You can cheat
on this one if you have a paper
due, but don't overdo it, okay.
Get sun. For those of you hitting
the beaches, there will be plenty of
this. Remember to do so in
moderation. Of course, if you pass
out on the beach, it's not your
fault and we'll understand why
you have that lobster complexion.
Lastly, do not under any cir-
cumstances come back from Ft.
Lauderdale, Daytona Beach or the
Bahamas and tell those of us who
stayed behind about your wild
time. We don't want to hear it.
Keep it to yourself and refuse to
speak about it even when someone
inquires about the banana eating
contest. It's a rule all us former
Lauderdalians strictly adhere to.
Have fun. See you in a week.
Bravo to the Department of
University Unions Artists Series
Committee for bringing the Rot-
terdam Philharmonic Orchestra to
Wright Auditorium Wednesday
night. The performance was ex-
cellent, judging from the encore
performance James Conlon and
the orchestra had to give.
From a purely non-musical
standpoint, one can only say
thanks for giving students and
faculty the chance to see a major
symphony orchestra. This is its
first U.S. tour since 1977, and its
great Greenville and ECU were put
on its calendar.
Education is closely related to
exposure, the seeing and experienc-
ing of other things. This bit of
culture tonight opened up a new
world to many. Thanks.

America is in danger. In spite of all
the billions recently spent on defense,
our country today faces a threat of
nuclear attack greater than ever before.
How did this situation develop?
The first answer lies in the arms con-
trol fever which has gripped us for 20
years. Under President Johnson, the
United States unilaterally halted pro-
duction and deployment of intercon-
tinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), a
policy continuing to this day. Since
1960, we have not constructed a single
aircraft capable of delivering nuclear
bombs on the Soviet Union, and our
sea-based nuclear forces have been
upgraded only very slowly. During the
same time, the Soviets have continued a
massive build-up of strategic aircraft,
sea-based nuclear forces and ICBMs.
Over the past 20 years, they have spent
$500 billion on ICBMs alone, while we
have spent almost nothing.
The second point concerns the heart
of American deterrent policy, a doc-
trine known as Mutual Assured
Destruction (appropriately titled
MAD). Military "experts" decided that
the best defense against missile attack is
to have no defense against missiles.
These MADmen reasoned that a pre-
emptive nuclear strike would leave the
aggressor's homeland incinerated by
reprisal. Mutual destruction would be
assured.
To make the doctrine reality, the
MADmen, with the Soviets, hammered
out the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile
(ABM) Treaty, banning virtually all
forms of missile defense, the only ex-
ceptions being the allowance of two
small missile defense fields and early-
warning radars.
'MAD' Mostly Insane
But the MADmen never bothered to
ask themselves if the Soviets also believ-
ed in MAD. Almost before the ink was
dry on the ABM Treaty, the Soviets
began violating it. In 1973, they com-
menced a series of 60 treaty-violating
tests and started construction of a
missile defense radar station near the
central Siberian village of Abalakova.
The Abalakova station is not an early-
warning radar ? it is a massive com-
plex built to keep track of hundreds of
incoming missiles, to figure out their
paths and to assign defending missiles
to intercept and destroy them. It's a
treaty buster.
It's bad enough that the Soviets have
engaged in such an alarming build-up.
The danger is multiplied by neglect for
our own forces:
1) If the Soviets chose to strike pre-
emptively at our nuclear forces (and
Soviet military doctrine preaches the
possibilities of winning atomic war), 95
percent of our ICBMs would be
destroyed. Our ICBMs are useless for
retaliation.
2) At present, our nuclear bombers
present little threat to the Soviets. Our
youngest bomber, the B-52 GH, is 25
years old and cannot penetrate Soviet
air defenses, and cruise missiles launch-
ed from B-52s can be easily shot down
by Soviet interceptors.
3) The much-heralded American sea-
launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs)
have one glaring deficiency which
drastically reduces their usefulness:
their accuracy is poor. Consider a
scenario: True to their doctrine, the
Soviets launch attacks on nuclear and
other military targets in the United
States. Our ICBMs and B-52s are large-
ly destroyed, leaving us only with
SLBM retaliatory power. But because
of the poor accuracy of SLBMs, we
could only attack and successfully
destroy urban areas, not the missiles the
Soviets would use in a second strike. If
we attacked their cities, they would do
the same to ours, resulting in some 80 to
170 million Americans killed. So our op-
tions would be suicide or surrender.
The picture is clear. As one promi-
nent nuclear scientist has said, "Our
adversary has created a great force for
the destruction of the military power of
the United States, and we have signed
away the right to defend ourselves
Our nuclear forces are vulnerable to
near-complete destruction while Soviet
missiles are increasingly protected. Our
only "safe" nuclear force, the SLBMs,
are merely first-strike weapons; they are
useless for retaliation, which is what
they are really needed for.
Don't break out your survival kits
yet, though. There is much to be
hopeful for:
1) By the end of the decade, our
SLBMs will possess the accuracy to
destroy military targets (making them
useful for retaliation), thus increasing
their deterrent value.
2) President Reagan's Strategic
Defense Initiative (SDI) presents an op-
portunity for us to drastically curtail
the threat of Soviet ICBMs.
3) Because both superpowers are
making great strides in missile ac-
curacy, the explosive force (megaton-
nage) of warheads is going down. Col-
lectively, our atomic weapons are one-
seventh their size of 25 years ago. In the
near future, "smart" warheads will be

Trends In Higher Education Deny Colleges' Purposes
By DARRYL BROWN
The response of ECU's top two ad-
ministrators recently to the Association
of American Colleges is indicative of the
crisis in American higher education to-
day. The problems with the reactions of
Chancellor Howell and Vice Chancellor
Volpe to the report citing a "decay in the
college course of study and the role of
college faculties in creating and nurtur-
ing that decay" are many; perhaps the
gravest is their denial that a problem ex-
ists at all, and if one does, it certainly
doesn't extend to ECU. Equally alarm-
ing, though, is the attitude that gives rise
to such an opinion. Their very concept
of the university seems to me a primary
source of the trouble in American higher
education.
Howell and Volpe are in dubious but
certainly not undistinguished company.
Their argument rings true of that made
by John Locke 300 years ago; battle
lines of educational viewpoints were
similar in previous centuries. Locke liv-
ed in one of the first ages to argue for a
predominantly utilitarian purpose of the
university rather than an intellectual
one. Since that time there have always
been voices denying the reality that the
latter purpose is propaedeutic to the
former. Volpe and Howell are in that
tradition; in this age, for better or worse
(worse, I think), such opinion now
prevails in the policymaking of higher
education.
Though this chorus has long called for
practical emphasis in curriculums, a pro-
gram to instruct students in the useful
arts rather than the merely enlightening,
an older and even greater school of
thought has argued for a higher duty of
the university. One of the supreme texts
in this tradition is Cardinal Newman's
The Idea of a University; it is a more ar-
ticulate and thorough argument than I
shall ever be able to make against the sell
out of universities as mere technical
schools serving the marketplace, and for
the irreplaceable advantages of a liberal
education. But if one brushes off this
essay as dated, impractical for our
modern age, two contemporary theorists
will do well: Education Secretary
William Bennett in To Reclaim a
Legacy, or the most brilliant living
defender of the university, Philip Rieff;
his book Fellow Teachers should be re-
quired reading for all college faculty and
administrators.
To the accusation that the American
university may be failing in its duty to
educate students, Howell and Volpe
responded with a resounding "No it's
not It is disheartening, to put it mild-
ly, to observe the quality of American
colleges (ECU included), the direction of
their curriculums, and the abilities of
many graduates, and then to hear those
who lead the university deny any need
for improvement.
More astonishing is the analogy
Howell used to describe the college to-
day; it is a radical departure from the
idea of a university that has endured for
centuries. In colleges now, Howell said,
"students are shoppers and professors
are merchants of learning Thus, the
college is a free-enterprise marketplace,
catering its supply to the demands of its
students. Half are still teenagers, most
are too young to buy liquor, yet they
know best how to attain a higher educa-
tion, and the faculty must peddle its
humble wares accordingly. So we have
come full circle: the administration pro-
vides no leadership at all to college
students, lends no guidance, offers no
advice on what one should get from col-
lege, or how to get it. Students know
best; they can see what the job market
calls for, they pay the bills. Give the peo-
ple what they want instead of what they
need.
The upshot of this experiment? It is
the domination of universities by trade
and technical schools. The curriculum
caters to, indeed encourages, majors in
some subject "useful" or "practical
at the high cost of general education.
The College of Arts and Sciences
humbly bows and adjusts accordingly.
Hence, at ECU one can get a minor in
English without studying literature (one
may take, instead, a course in writing
business letters), and the most popular
philosophy course above the introduc-
tory level is the Philosophy of Business
Ethics. Thereby, the purpose of the
university is completely subverted.
English majors chant upon graduation
their greatest achievement: "We've got
jobs, we've got jobs To which
business majors respond triumphantly,
"Working for us, working for us
My purpose is not to suggest that the
university should not be concerned with
the job market; indeed it should. I sug-
gest, rather, that it should not be con-
cerned with only that, and that there are
better ways to prepare students for that
market than specific occupation train-
ing.
Newman faced a similar argument for
practicality in the last century. The
times, many said, with new advances in
science and human knowledge, require
students more specially trained for oc-
cupational, technical, mechanical arts,
with less time spent on such nebulous
ideals as a critical, disciplined, discern-
ing mind. Newman responded brilliant-
ly, arguing that the well-trained, careful-
ly developed intellect is not only best for
the individual and society, but also the
most truly useful. Said he: "General
culture of the mind is the best aid to pro-
fessional and scientific study, and
educated men can do what illiterate can-
not; and the man who has learned to
think and to reason and to compare and
to discriminate and to analyze will not
indeed at once be a lawyer or a man of
business or an engineer, but he will be
placed in that state of intellect in which
he can take up any" such profession.
Such capabilities seem more practical
today than direct vocational training,
when corporations and industries report
that the specific classroom knowledge of
most degrees is outdated in five years,
and more than half of all college
students are in a job unrelated to their
major 10 years after graduation. Ad-
justing to this, training centers and even
full-time schools set up by corporations
are becoming an integral part of
American business life, necessary to
keep employees well prepared in their
profession. This could create a perfect,
unplanned partnership in education.
Colleges can stop letting students shop
around so much and ground them in the
foundations of a liberal education, with
still three or four semesters in a major
both to introduce them to a profession
and to explore a field of study in depth.
Corporate schools (and graduate
schools) can take over the task of
specific job training and on-going pro-
fessional education. Thus the university
can fulfill its original and proper pur-
pose.
Volpe and Howell, in fact, are living
proof against the philosophy they (at
least tacitly) support of training directly
for a profession; they are cases-in-point
that well-trained minds can excell in
fields not spelled out in college text
books. Both are products of academe,
Howell a political scientist, Volpe a
chemist. Yet they are successful ad-
ministrators of a bureaucracy employing
hundreds with a budget of millions.
Their betrayal of liberal education is a
tragic form of apostacy.
Thus their is credence in Newman's
refutation of "the notion that no educa-
tion is useful which does not teach us
some temporal calling, or some
mechanical art, or some physical secret.
I say that a cultivated intellect brings
with it a power and a grace to every
work and occupation, and enables us to
be more useful, and to a greater
number
Universities should not be absolute
democracies, structured on the assump-
tion that freshmen and sophomores
know as well as anyone how to attain the
foundations of their education. The
faculty and administration should be a
voice of authority, providing leadership
? through open dialogue with students,
to be sure, in the best Socratic tradition
? but still a guiding force. It is they who
should be insisting upon the value of
liberal education, instead of catering to
contemporary exigencies that call for
our colleges to become vocational train-
ing centers. Students and faculty are not
shoppers and merchants, but they are
more analagous to a gardener tending
young samplings, plants which have
their own form and direction in which to
grow, but require care, nurture and oc-
cassional pruning.

The break up of AT&T was the
subject of W.D. Bulloch's "The
Break Up of the Bell System.
What Might America Gain? Or
Lose?" Bulloch is a visiting
faculty member of ECU's
English Department.
He delved mainly into the
history of the Bell System and
AT&T without arriving at an
editorial conclusion until all of
the facts were presented. Bulloch
opened his lecture by stating that
he would not deal with the hard-
ships experienced by telecom-
munication consumers due to the
break up, but rather with the
significantt importance of what
the dissolution of the world's
largest company means.
Bulloch traced the history of
the Bell system from Alexander
Graham Bell's invention of the
telephone to the recent breakup
of the AT&T monopoly, stressing
the company's traditional sense
of mission and its easy coopera-
tion with governmental regula-
tion.
On the subject of the break up
and deregulation of the industry,
Bulloch said that the break up
has "severely reduced the effec-
tiveness of telecommunications
In support of this, he cited the ef-
fect it will have on telephone
rates for rural customers: "the
break up will drive charges closer
to cost he said, "where na
tional averaging once kept rates
more fair He also noted the
loss of significant funds to the
Bell Labs, which under AT&T,
was responsible for many
technical breakthroughs for both
civilian life and military.
Another very important loss,
Bulloch stressed, was the effect
the break up has had on the
business practices of the industry.
"The break up has driven rates to
the fore front and pushed the
spirit of service to the back he
said.
The lack of fully-developed
thinking skills among secondary
school students was the topic of
Richard Miller on Tuesday.
Miller, of the ECU philosophy
department, gave a speech entitl-
ed, "Education and
Democracy
Miller stressed that the
American educational system
does not put enough emphasis on
thinking and reasoning skills in
the middle and secondary
schools. "It is more important
for students to reason than it is to
memorize Miller said.
Educators need to start
teaching children to think and
reason in the sixth or seventh
grade because they are capable of
doing so. Miller said, "trying to
free people to retain facts when
they are capable of thinking is a
waste of time
This neglect of thinking and
reasoning skills is also found in
some of society's most important
institutions. Miller stated that

Another writer, a non-student
with whom I've been friendly
although we are poles apart
ideologically, credulously
reported that the ECU
Wolverines want to raise student
fees $50 to pay for the survival
kits to be issued in the event of
Soviet attack or invasion. The
suggestion for survival kits is
merely creative and symbolic.
The allegation about raising stu-
dent fees is totally false, a pro-
duct of the faculty rumor mill
which is trying to slander the
Wolverines out of existence. In
the future, concerned students
and faculty should consult Gor-
don Walker, chief Wolverine, to
check the validity of such
rumors.
Readers can consider the
survival-kit ploy as a Wolverine
move similar to the proposal of
the leftist students at Brown and
other universities, who raised
consciousness about the danger
of nuclear war by demanding that
the administration issue poison
pills to those wanting to kill
themselves on day-one of nuclear
war. Wolverines point to the
cowardice of such an act and how
it betrays the ideals of defending
democracy in the face of an at-
tack by totalitarianism.

The Cars On Empty?
(UPI) ? The Cars are in the
pink of commercial health, with
their hugely successful Heartbeat
City album having produced five
hit songs and videos, but the
band is strangely unsatisfied.
Instead of concentrating on a
follow-up album or taking a rest
from their national tour, solo
projects are occupying three band
members, including Cars leader
Ric Ocasek and lead guitarist
Elliot Easton.
It is Ocasek's second solo
album and both he and Easton
say they plan for the forseeable
future to alternately make
records with the Cars and by
themselves.
Easton insists his record, due
this month, is "not born of
frustration or any anger and it's
not meant to pose a threat to my
membership in the Cars or any of
that kind of nonsense. All it is is
something to do in the interim
But there are signs nonetheless
that all is not well in the band.
Ocasek speaks of wanting to
make moodier music and, one
day last summer, was sufficiently
disgruntled with his cohorts to
tell a record magazine interviewer
that "95 percent of everything
that happens in this band, I do
"I don't care what anybody
says in an interview situation, I
not only write the songs, I do all
the video stuff, I arrange most of
the stuff and, on top of it, I take
all the praise o r blame for it he
fumed.
He lashed out at Easton in par-
ticular, saying "nobody knows
that everything he plays he's told
to play and he plays exactly what
he's told; and beyond that, if he
&?
didn't, all I'd hear would be blues
licks and scales from the Berklee
College of Music
The affable Easton turns
stonefaced when Ocasek's
remarks are brought up. Calling
it "a dead issue he said,
"We've all made mistakes in life
and I think a sign of friendship is
the ability to let it roll off your
back and say that's OK and
forgive
It's ironic that intraband
squabbling is coming to light
now, considering the rough seas
that led to the megasucess of
Heartbeat City has smoothed
over.
The band's self-titiled debut
LP in 1976 was a critical and com-
mercial success, introducing
listeners to the band's irresistably
commercial yet sleek pop
melodies with Ocasek's odd but
somehow appropriately detached
vocals.
The follow-up, Candy-O, also
sold well, but the critics seemed a
bit cooler. Panorama in 1980 was
hailed for being adventuresome,
but failed to sell well. The Cars
returned to safe ground with the
fourth LP Shake It UP.
They parted ways for the first
time with producer Thomas
Baker on Heartbeat City.
In came fastidious producer
Jeff "Mutt" Lange and the Cars,
who had spent four to six weeks
making every album heretofore,
were in England more than six
months recording soon-to-be-hits
including "You Might Think
"Magic and "Drive
"It sounds contradictory that
you could work on something for
12 hours to capture spontaneity,
5
but there you go Easton said.
"We would keep at it until it
sounded live, or alive
Easton's solo record, which
was recorded in a four-week
period between the Cars album
and tour, proves that he is
capable of more than "blues licks
and scales from the Berklee Col-
lege of Music
Co-written with Jules Shear,
formerly of the critically acclaim-
ed Jules and the Polar bears, the
record is strong '60's flavored
pop, "Shayla" and "Wide
Awake" being the high points.
Easton is planning to tour with
the record. Although he says he
does not feel pressured to sell as
many copies as Cars albums do,
he is hoping it sells well enough
that he will be able to continue
making solo albums.
"Hopefully, each of our in-
dividual projects will enrich what
we have to offer the band. And
when we come back, we'll bring
what we've learned on our own
back to the band and we'll be that
much stronger for it he said,
and then added, smiling, "That's
my excuse and I'm sticking to
it
Shear was introduced to
Easton when he moved to Boston
after the Polar Bears broke up.
Easton produced four songs for
him, including an early version of
"All Through the Night which
Cyndi Lauper later featured on
her album.
As the friendship grew, they
began socializing with another
ex-Polar Bear, Stephen Hague,
and "we'd all sort of help each

other out on each other's pro-
jects Easton said.
He said he and Shear started
writin? songs together "for the
sheer pleasure of it" and even-
tually came up with a sheaf of
songs they decided Easton
should record.
After getting the go-ahead
from the record company, Hague
was tapped as producer and two
members of the Chicago-based
band Ministry, Stephen George
and Brad Hallen, sat in for drum-
ming and bass duties.
"I really don't even like to call
it a solo album Easton said.
"Usually when the giutar player
from a well-known band makes a
record, one would come to expect
40 minutes of guitar histrionics
and an excuse to get really self-
indulgent.
"In my case, it was quite the
opposite, really a collection of
songs. It's not an excuse to pack
as many guitar licks as I can onto

Soprano To Sing March 13
Man-O-Stick
With equal acclaim for her
performance in opera,
recital, and with orchestra,
soprano Marvis Martin has been
hailed by the international press
for the beauty of her voice and
her gift for sensitive communica-
tion. This fine vocalist, termed
the new Leontyne Price, will be
presented by the East Carolina
University Artists Series Commit-
tee on Wednesday, March 13 at 8
p.m. in Wright Auditorium.
Miss Martin made her debut
with the Metropolitan Opera on
tour in 1982 as Pamina in The
Magic Flute, and returned to the
Met in New York in the 1982-83
season to sing Xenia in
Mussourgsky's Boris Godunov,
the Princess in Ravis's L 'Enfant
et les Sortileges, and the Celestial
Voice in Don Carlos. She has also
sung Liu in Turandot in Bogota,
Colombia and Ismene in
Mozart's Mitridate at the Aixen-
Provence Festival.
Future operatic engagements
include Mimi in La Boheme with
the Seattle Opera in 1985, the
roles in several seldom produced
works: Ilia in Mozart's Idomeneo
with the Netherlands Opera,
Dorinda in Handel'5 Orlando i
Carnegie Hall (with Manly
Home), and Almirena in the
Met's new production of
Haydn's Rinaldo (also with
Marilyn Home.)
Miss Martin has been a fre-
quent guest artist with orchestras
and choral societies. In 1982 she
made her debut with the Chicago
Symphony at the Ravinia Festival
in Haydn's Lord Nelson Mass
and Mozart's Mass in c minor,
both conducted by James Levine.
In 1983 she was guest artist at the
Spoleto USA Festival, perform-
ing in several chamber music con-
certs and also performing in solo
recital. Miss Martin has given
several performances with the
Chamber Music Society of Lin-
coln Center, including the world
premiere of "Nocturne a
Menotti piece commissioned for
Alice Tully's 80th birthday at
Lincoln Center. With the Music
Aeterna she sang Haydn's "The
Creation" at the Metropolitan
Museum, and at Avery Fisher
Huck Finds Adventure In The 80s
UPI ? Mark Twain started The
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
with a warning to those who
might be tempted to over analyze
his work.
"Persons attempting to find a
motive in this narrative will be
prosecuted he wrote "Persons
attempting to find a moral in it
will be banished; persons attemp-
ting to find a plot in it will be
shot
No telling what he would have
thought about trying to update
the story 100 years later.
Still, it's an interesting thought
? what would a contemproary
equivalent of Twain's hero be
like, what sort of 1980s hell
would he raise, which institutions
would he scoff at0
Some Twain scholars wince at
the thought of updating Huck
Finn, considering it an undertak-
ing akin to asking for a rewrite on
Genesis.
"You can't take Huck Finn
out of his situation said Robert
Hirst of the University of
California at Berkely, who is
heading a project to compile
50-plus volumes of Twain's
works. It wouldn't be the same
thing
"I'm not even sure he needs
updating said writer Justin
Kaplan of Cambridge,
Massachusetts. "If you landed
him on his feet (in the 1980s) he
might not act so differently. He
might be a lot more disgusted
with what he finds, though. But I
think that if you did drop him in-
to today's culture, he might come
out of it unscathed
Bringing Huck into the 1980s
with some semblance of the
values and non-values that Twain
gave him would require transfor-
ming him from a river rat into a
suburban brat. Picture him living
in a blue-collar Southern Califor-
nia suburb with a divorced
unreconstructed flower-child
mother who never had the energy
or familial skills to keep him in
line.
"You'd have to have a ne'er-
do-well who gets into some bad
situations with society said
Professor James Cox of Dart-
mouth, whose Twain writings in-
clude a contribution to a book of
essays being published to mark
the centennial of U.S. publica-
tion of Huck Finn
Like so many 14-year-old kids
in such a setting, he smokes dope
and dabbles with other drugs,
skips school, hangs out at the
mall and shoplifts a six-pack of
beer when he can't pilfer the
money from his mother's purse.
A contemproary Huck also
would be snitching the car keys
and waiting for a
behind-mom's-back opportunity
to go sailing on the highway. He
would have to settle for an in-
terstate as his Mississippi River.
Huck Finn may have been the
original rebel without a cause,
running through life as quickly as
possible with his instincts as his
only guidelines. Even when he
helped Jim escape slavery he did
not act out of sympathy with the
abolitionist movement or even
the personal feeling that he was
doing right.
Today he would have a variety
of left and right-wing issues to
become involved in ? nuclear
freeze, anti-abortion, gun con-
trol, anti-communist, pro-
Sandinista, anti-apartheid.
But be assured his involvement
would be accidental, peripheral
and as short-lived as he could
make it.
"He'd like to do the thing
that's easiest and handiest Cox
said. "He has no standards, just
feelings. He takes the path of
least resistance
At the risk of Twain's
posthumous wrath, Cox offered
a profile that applies to American
literature's best bad boy in both
the author's time and the 1980s.
"I think Huck Finn was a
nihilist. He rejects civilization
itself he said. "He says civiliza-
tion isn't evil ? just that it's
cramped and he can't stand it
Hall she sang the "Messiah" with
Musica Sacra under the direction
of, J&fhgrd Wetenburg. She
returned to the Metropolitan
Museum with Musica Sacra to
sing Bach cantatas. She sang the
Brahms Requiem with the New
York Choral Society at Carnegie
Hall, later performed this same
work with the National Sym-
phony in Washington, D.C and
appeared with the Washington
Choral Arts Society at their 1982
Christmas concert.
Marvis Martin's extraordinari-
ly praised New York recital debut
was given in 1981 at the 92nd
Street Y as part of the Kathleen
Ferrier Prize awarded her by
Young Concert Artists. She made
her European recital debut in
Nantes, France, and she has also
sung at the 1982 summer Aixen-
Proyence Festival and the Artist
Series of the Ambassador
Cultural Foundation in
Pasadena, California. Future
recitals are scheduled at the Ken-
nedy Center, Alice Tully Hall,
the Morgan Library, the Century

CINEMA
Film Provides Plethora Of Suspense
By JENNIFER
JENDRASIAK
News Editor
Inadequate acting and a
dearth of character
development and plot depth
are more than compensated
for by a plethora of suspense
in the new Orion Pictures
release The Mean Season. This
is not a movie for the faint-
hearted, nor for those with a
yen for on-screen soul-
searching, but if you enjoy
riding rollercoasters, it's a
good bet you'll like this movie.
The movie centers around
Malcolm Anderson (Kurt
Russell), a dissatisfied, eight-
year veteran reporter for a
Miami newspaper. Just as
Anderson is about to leave it
all for a small-town
newspaper, he is handed the
story of a lifetime. A girl is
murdered and the killer
chooses Anderson as his con-
tact with the rest of the world,
telling him this is the first of a
series of murders.
As the film progresses,
Anderson is drawn deeper into
the killer's web, becoming a
media figure himself and, for
all practical purposes, an un-
willing partner in the crimes.
The issue of whether Ander-
son should be continuing to
speak to the killer is explored
only briefly, as Anderson's
girlfriend (Mariel Hemingway)
protests his involvement. The
plot is ultimately resolved in a
startling manner, but this issue
remains unresolved.

With a few small lapses, the
action in The Mean Season is
constant, with very few gaps.
There are several scenes,
however, that are almost ir-
ritating. For some reason, the
writers seemed to feel it
necessary to string the already
involved audience along with
several fake scares. In one,
Russell plays a Psycho scene
while Hemingway is in the
shower; in another, a
"stowaway" appears in the
back of a car. These scenes
were unnecessary and
detracted from the continuity
of the suspense.
The worst scene in the
movie looked like a takeoff on
Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Anderson, in hot pursuit of
the killer, pulls up at a
drawbridge just as it opens.
He stops his car and leaps
across the gap between the sec-
tions of the bridge, just barely
making it. In a movie that
seemed to stick to basics,
without a lot of melodrama,
this was just a bit unrealistic.
The Mean Season didn't
earn its R rating through sex
or violence. There is almost no
nudity and a surprising lack of
blood and gore. In a sense, it
plays on the mind, with things
happening when they're least
expected. It's well worth see-
ing for these surprises,
although it is definitely not a
movie to see twice.

Camels Down ECU At Buzzer
Herb Dixon (21) takes this rebound away from Clarence Grier (33).
He grabbed eight boards in last night's loss to Campbell University.
By SCOTT COOPER
Co-Sports Editor
John Huffstetler's 18-foot
jumpshot with :12 seconds re-
maining gave Campbell Universi-
ty a 60-58 victory over ECU,
snapping a Camel 19-game road
losing streak.
Senior guard Andrea McGee
did the most damage for Camp-
bell. He hit eight of 10 shots from
the field to lead all scorers with
19 points. Huffstetler finished
with 12 and freshman guard Juan
Austin had 10.
Although the Pirate defense
forced Campbell into 18 tur-
novers, ECU was ice-cold in their
shooting performance. As a
team, ECU shot 43.1 percent
from the floor for the game ?
35.5 in the second half.
When center Leon Bass picked
up his second personal foul with
11:02 left in the first half, ECU
coach Charlie Harrison went to
his five-guard lineup.
"I wanted to get some emotion
into our defense Harrison said.
"It just didn't happen tonight
In the last home game of the
season, ECU got off to an early
lead. When William Grady
scored on a layup from Herb Dix-
on, the Pirates went up 4-2 at the
Netters Split Opening Match
The Lady Pirate tennis team
fared well in their opening match,
thrashing UNC-Wilmington 8-1,
however, the men's team was not
so fortunate, as they fell to
Atlantic Christian College 6-3,
In the women's action,
number-cne seed Ann Mander-
field took the first set of her
match 6-3. However, she drop
ped the next set 7-6, and lost the
tie breaker (7-4), to drop the
match to Angie Frazier of the
Seahawks.
Second-seeded Tyraina Myers
had an easy time with her oppo-
nent, as she lost just four games
in her match. She was victorious
6-4, 6-0. After a tough start,
sophomore Susan Brown
outlasted Leanne Barkley to win
her match bv the score of 0-6,
7-5, 6-2.
Freshman Susan Montjoy had
to go three sets before dumping
Allison Sanders 6-1, 4-6. 6-1.
Karla Hove also needed extra
time to knock off her opponent.
After winning the opening set
6-3, she dropped the second set
7-6. This forced a tie breaker, in
which she won 7-5.
In the only other singles match,
Sheila Feeley won decisively 6-3,
6-2.
Manderfield made up for her
singles loss as she teamed with
Myers to win their top-seeded
doubles match easily, 6-1, 6-2.
Brown and Feeley were also vic-
torious in doubles, as they knock-
ed off their opponents 6-3, 6-2.
The freshman team of Montjoy
and Hoye were just as much a
success as they rolled over the
Seahawks' third seed 6-2, 6-2.
Head coach Pat Sherman was
impressed with the girls' perfor-
mance.
"I'm really, really pleased with
the performance of the team
Sherman said. "I'm also pleased
with the progress that the team is
making
The Pirate men ran up against
some tough competition at ACC,
according to Coach Sherman.
"They (ACC) have a strong
team she said. "They're very
experienced. They have mostly
foreigners ? two guys from
Sweden, one from New Zealand
and one from India.
"We had some strong
matches Sherman added. "The
play was good overall
The men had a hard time in the
season opener. However, they
managed to win in two single
matches and were victorious in
the top-seeded doubles match.
Davis Bagley, the fifth-seeded
singles player, proved to be a
bright spot for the Pirates. He
surrendered just five games in his
6-2, 6-3 victory. Coach Sherman
was especially pleased with
sophomore's play.
"Davis had a fantastic perfor-
mance Sherman stated. "It was
his best performance ever
The only other singles victory
was from sophomore David
Turner. He defeated ACC's Ran-
jet Shinde 6-1, 6-3.
Captain Galen Treble and se-
cond seeded Greg Willis won the
only doubles match for ECU.
The two won the first set 7-5,
then the ACC players defaulted
the second set.
Despite the loss, Coach Sher-
man feels that the game ex-
perience was good for the men's
team.
"We lost some top people,
which hurt us in our
preparation she said. "This
experience will really help us in
the future
Here is a look at the Spring
season for both of the Pirate
squads.
MEN'S
Feb. 28 UNC-WILMINGTON
18:27 mark. ECU was then
outscored 10-0 over the next three
minutes.
ECU made a comeback of its
own and tied the game 12-12 on a
Keith Sledge 18 footer with 13:10
left in the half. The Camels
retaliated and built a 10-point
lead on two free throws by Austin
with 5:15 left in the opening
period.
The tide turned once again, as
ECU stormed from behind to
take a 30-29 halftime lead. Grady
led the Pirate surge by scoring
seven points in the last three
minutes of the half.
ECU looked as if this momen-
tum would lead to a second-half
blowout. But this was not the
case.
McGee was on fire to open the
second half. He scored the first
11 of Campbell's 15 second-half
points, giving the Camels a 44-34
advantage with 14:36 remaining.
The Pirates came back and cut
the Campbell lead to three
(51-48) on a Curt Vanderhorst in-
side shot with 7:48 remaining in
the game. As the game got into
the final minutes, the intensity
level rose and each Pirate posses-
sion became crucial.
With :55 seconds remaining,
Vanderhorst assisted Sledge on a
short-turnaround jumper. This
shot tied the game at 58-58.
However, Campbell would have
time to set up for a final shot.
As Dixon did to Campbell on
Dec. 13, 1985, Huffstetler did to
ECU on Feb. 27, 1985. His
jumper with :12 seconds left,
lifted Campbell past ECU 60-58.
The Campbell road victory was
their fourth in 64 tries.
"We didn't play particularly
good defense ECU coach
Charlie Harison said. "We had
to stop McGee, tonight we just
couldn't seem to guard him.
"They did a good job of
shadowing Curt all over the
floor Harrison added. "Our
inconsistency for the duration of
the season is our problem. I'm
sorry for the fans that stuck with
us
For the Pirates, Vanderhorst
and Bass led the way with 14
points apiece. Grady and Dixon
added nine each and Sledge chip-
ped in eight.
The Pirates have one more
game before the ECAC South
Tournament in Williamsburg,
Va. ECU will travel to James
Madison University on March 2.
??So Long
With this being the last home
game for the Pirates, Mike Aman
will have to put up his costume
and say so long.
Aman, a senior graduating in
May, has been in 'the Pirate
costume for the past two years.
He explains his past experiences
as being 'great
"I've really enjoyed being the
mascot Aman said. "It really
takes a lot of hard work and
dedication
Aman admits it is a bit difficult
getting motivated for every game,
however the kids always show
their gratitude.
"The kids are always excited
? know matter what the team's
record may be he said. "They
keep me motivated.
"If you don't love ECU, you
shouldn't be in this costume
Aman continued. "You have to
be faithful to the university
Encore
Freshman guard Herb Dixon
was named ECAC South rookie
of-the-week for the second time
this season. The 6-3, Bath, Maine
native scored 30 points and dish-
ed out 24 assists in losses to the
Naval Academy and American
University and a win over UNC-
Wilmington last week. This vic-
tory was the first in the con-
ference for ECU in the '84-85
season.

ECU track coach Bill Carson is
not one to boast about his
athletes before they have proven
themselves.
He chooses to let his team pro-
ve itself quietly before expressing
pre-season optimism. Conse-
quently, Carson approached the
1985 season like most others with
a wait and see attitude. But he
knew there was a lot of potential
in this year's Pirate squad and it
appears that his secret cannot be
kept much longer.
The Pirates generally enter
meets featuring teams bo' larger
in terms of the number c hletes
as well as national re nition.
Therefore, Carson ch ses to
concentrate on the sprint and
relay events in order to maximize
his talent. He has done that very
effectively and this year may be
the best yet for ECU track.
"I feel that we should be a top
ten finisher in the IC4A's Car-
son said. "We have channelled
our program in that direction.
We should run better in the relay.
We have some depth in our
quarter milers and that will free
us up enough to run some in the
open events.
"Our 4 X 100 team never
finished lower than third last year
and I expect our times to im-
prove he continued. "It will
still be difficult for us to score in
bigger meets when we only enter
eight of nineteen events
Freshman Lee MacNeil
qualified for the NCAA's in his
very first meet and has run off a
streak of eight wins without a loss
in the 55-meter dash. The St.
Pauls, NC, set a new ECU in-
door record with his 6.20 clock-
ing in the event. Track and Field
News does not recognize times
registered on over-sized tracks,
however, the time would place
MacNeil in fourth place among
collegians this year.
Craig White is expected to have
another excellent season running
the hurdles for the Pirate
tracksters. White, who also plays
football fdr the Pirates, has
already broken his own school-
record time in the 5 5-meter
hurdles with a clocking of 7.25.
Chris Brooks is also expected
to have a fine season on the
hurdles, having already registered
a time 47.18 in the open
400-meters in an early-season
meet. The time should place him
among the Track and Field News
top ten for the event.
Ken Daughtry shattered the
school record with a clocking of
1:02.82 in the 500 meters.
Daughtry combines with Julian
Anderson, Rueben Pierce and
Phillip Estes on what may be the
strongest mile-relay team in the
school's history. Anderson has
been timed at 1:09.61 over 600
yards, fourth best among col-
legiate runners in 1985. Pierce is
one of ECU's most talented
sprinters ever, while Estes has
had an exceptional workout
season and may play a key role in
the success for the Pirates in 1985.
To say that the Pirates have
gained some attention would be
an understatement. Coach Car-
son has been notified that
Southern Methodist was impress-
ed with ECU's showing in the
Bud Light Invitational and will
sponsor the team's trip to par-
ticipate in the SMU Invitational
held in Dallas.
"I will be pleased if we place in
the big meets as well as we did
last year Carson said. "I expect
us to run faster and use more
athletes than we were able to last
season. Staying healthy is the key
to our season
The Pirates appear to be get-
ting stronger and stronger as the
outdoor season approaches.
Without question, a lot of in-
terested eyes will be focused on
the purple and gold of the ECU
tracksters as they end their in-
door season and begin looking to
their outdoor competition.
Next for the Pirates is the
prestigious IC4A's in Annapoils,
Md on March 2-3.
Lady Bucs Defend Tourney Championship
By RICK McCORMAC
Co-Sports Editor
The Lady Pirate basketball
team will try to defend their
ECAC South Tournament
Championship this weekend in
Richmond, Va.
ECU won the inagural event
last season, which was held here
in Greenville. They defeated
George Mason in their opening
game 68-41. They trounced Rich-
mond 54-39 in the championship
game to win the tournament.
The Lady Pirates breezed
through the regular season
schedule, losing only on the road
to UNC-Wilmington. This loss
stopped their winning streak at 15
games.
Although ECU experienced a
slight letdown in their last four
games, Pirate head coach Emily
Manwaring expects her team to
be ready to play in the tourna-
ment.
"We were under a lot of
pressure to keep our winning
streak going, and I think that ef-
fected us Manwaring said.
"When it comes tournament
time, I know we'll be ready.
The Lady Pirates are definately
the pre-tourney favorites, and
playing the role of the hunted
does not bother Manwaring at
all.
"We have enough talent, and
if we want it bad enough we
should win it she said. "Every
team in the field is capable of
winning the tournament, but we
should be the team that is ex-
pected to win. We had the best
record in the regular season, and
played the best throughout the
year - - I expect us to win it
Emily Manwaring
The Lady Pirates receive a bye
to the semi-finals of the tourna-
ment, which begins on Friday.
ECU plays the winner of the
game between George Mason and
the team that finishes fifth in the
regular season standings. The
other team in the bracket will pit
the winner of the Richmond-
American game. The game is the
final regular season contest in the
ECAC South, and will determine
who finishes fifth as both teams
are currently tied with 3-8
records.
Although ECU's chances of
winning the ECAC South tourna-
ment are good, the probability of
advancing any farther is unlikely.
Winning the tournament does
not, at present, insure an
automatic bid to the NCAA
Tournament.
"The chances of us receiving
an at-large bid (to the NCAA) is
very slim, since we lost that game
to Wilmington Manwaring
said. Their overall record was on-
ly 14-10, but if we would have
won and then won the tourna-
ment, I think we would have got-
ten some notice with a 19-game
winning streak
Even though the Lady Pirates,
in all likelihood, won't make the
NCAA tournament they do have
a lofty goal within reach. Two
wins in the conference tourna-
ment would give ECU its first
20-win season since the 1980-81
campaign.
"I said we were going to win 20
games going into this season
Manwaring said. "And I want to
keep my prediction integrity in-
tact.
The ECAC South All-
Conference team will be an-
nounced at the Banquet the night
before the tournament. The team
is chosen by position, with a
center, two forwards and two
Anita Anderson (42) and the rest of her teammates will try to repeat
tournament champions in the ECAC South this weekend.
guards making up the squad.
ECU could conceivably end up
with no players on the all-league
team, despite having the best
record in the ECAC South. Since
conference statistics include all
games played, opposing players
roll up impressive numbers
against lesser competition.
"The procedure for how we
select the all-conference team
needs to be changed Manwar-
ing said. "We should select the
top-five players regardless of
position, using only statistics
from actual league games. We
played games outside the league
against Old Dominion, South
Carolina (twice), North Carolina
and North Carolinia State, while
the other team's did not play
anywhere near that kind of
schedule
With only the Tournament
left, Pirate junior guard Sylvia
Bragg only needs 30 points to
become the ninth all-time 1,000
point scorer in ECU history. She
is currently in ninth place behind
Leora "Sam" Jones on the
Pirates career-scoring list.
Senior center Anita Anderson
has also made her mark in the
ECU record books. She blocked
35 shots over the course of the
27-game regular season, the fifth
highest total in Lady Pirate
history. She is the fourth all-time
shot blocker in ECU history.
Hoops
After doing almost eight years
of college basketball for NBC, I
think it's time to speak out about
t the dangers of the TV explosion
that threatens to engulf the sport
today.
Just take a look at your
newspaper or TV Guide, It's
frightening. If you have a dish,
and want to get all the cables, I
guarantee you there's not a
Saturday thet you don't have a
pick of 10 to 15 top-flight college
basketball games.
The problem is that the college
season today is geared for max-
imum TV exposure. That's
because the regular season is not
run out of Shawnee Mission, Ka.
Only the NCAA Tournament is
run by the NCAA.
The result is that the regular
season has become more and
more structured for college TV,
with all 250 Division-I schools
looking to create their own feif-

Aman, a senior graduating in

He explains his past experiences
as being 'great
"I've really enjoyed being the
mascot Aman said. "It really
takes a lot of hard work and
dedication
Aman admits it is a bit difficult
getting motivated for every game,
however the kids always show
their gratitude.
"The kids are always excited
? know matter what the team's
record may be he said. "They
keep me motivated.
"If you don't love ECU, you

Freshman guard Herb Dixon
was named ECAC South rookie
f-the-week for the second time
season. The 6-3, Bath, Maine
native scored 30 points and dish-
ed out 24 assists in losses to the
Naval Academy and American
University and a win over UNC-
Wiimington last week. This vic-
tory was the first in the con-
ference for ECU in the '84-85
season.

school's history. Anderson has
been timed at 1:09.61 over 600
yards, fourth best among col-
legiate runners in 1985. Pierce is
one of ECU's most talented
sprinters ever, while Estes has
had an exceptional workout
season and may play a key role in
the success for the Pirates in 1985.
To say that the Pirates have
gained some attention would be
an understatement. Coach Car-
son has been notified that
Southern Methodist was impress-
ed with ECU's showing in the
Bud Light Invitational and will
sponsor the team's trip to par-
ticipate in the SMU Invitational
held in Dallas.
"I will be pleased if we place in
the big meets as well as we did
last year Carson said. "I expect
us to run faster and use more
athletes than we were able to last
season. Staying healthy is the key
to our season
The Pirates appear to be get-
ting stronger and stronger as the
outdoor season approaches.
Without question, a lot of in-
terested eyes will be focused on
the purple and gold of the ECU
tracksters as they end their in-
door season and begin looking to
their outdoor competition.
Next for the Pirates is the
prestigious IC4A's in Annapoils,
Md on March 2-3.

guards making up the squad.
ECU could conceivably end up
with no players on the all-league
team, despite having the best
record in the ECAC South. Since
conference statistics include all
games played, opposing players
roll up impressive numbers
against lesser competition.
"The procedure for how we
select the all-conference team
needs to be changed Manwar-
ing said. "We should select the
top-five players regardless of
position, using only statistics
from actual league games. We
played games outside the league
against Old Dominion, South
Carolina (twice), North Carolina
and North Carolinia State, while
the other team's did not play
anywhere near that kind of
schedule
With only the Tournament
left, Pirate junior guard Sylvia
Bragg only needs 30 points to
become the ninth all-time 1,000
point scorer in ECU history. She
is currently in ninth place behind
Lcora "Sam" Jones on the
Pirates career-scoring list.
Senior center Anita Anderson
has also made her mark in the
ECU record books. She blocked
35 shots over the course of the
27-game regular season, the fifth
highest total in Lady Pirate
history. She is the fourth all-time
shot blocker in ECU history

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
FEBRUARY 28, 1985
After doing almost eight years
of college basketball for NBC, I
think it's time to speak out about
the dangers of the TV explosion
that threatens to engulf the sport
today.
pen? (LSS dSK,S TV? tCO man networks- cables
h!L r 8? scasSn has lost ? independents. ESPN does 90
MSTiA 2 ? ??. season alone. We're get-
ball in 1984, which will only get
worse in 1985, and we must get it
back.
What eventually is going to
happen, will be oversaturation of
the product to the extent that the
heavyweights, NBC and CBS,
ting to the point that we're
creating the complete arm-chair
fan, a remote-control wizard,
who cheers from his living room.
The rationale is simple: Why
put on your whole overcoat and
boots, go out in the winter, fight
ur?n?t k? ?ui . i ?7 .?v lv"l3? 8? ?ui in me winter, iignt
Just take a look at youi
newspaper or TV Guide, It's
frightening. If you have a dish,
and want to get all the cables, I
guarantee you there's not a
Saturday thet you don't have a
pick of 10 to 15 top-flight college
basketball games.
The problem is that the college
season today is geared for max-
imum TV exposure. That's
because the regular season is not
run out of Shawnee Mission, Ka.
Only the NCAA Tournament is
run by the NCAA.
The result is that the regular
season has become more and
more structured for college TV,
with all 250 Division-I schools
looking to create their own feif
filiates in line to broadcast their
national package, and get the
number of viewers needed so a
sponsor will pick up the tag. At
that point, the whole show goes.
College basketball's TV dark
ages will begin.
The problem is, there's too
much of a selection now. It's the
candy store syndrome. Anytime
you're allowed to go into a candy
store to eat anything you want,
you won't come back as often
15 to 20 dollars when you go back
home, just to watch college
basketball live, when there's pro-
bably a better game on the tube?
Chicago is one of the big reasons
why DePaul is where it's at to-
day, and why they've got guys
from San Diego, Los Angeles,
Flint, Mich Queens and Philly.
Guys who didn't know who Ray
Meyer was until they tuned in
Super-Channel Nine.
Don't get me wrong, I don't
think DePaul knew they were set-
ting a trend. They just happened
to be in Chicago, which had
channel nine. But what happen-
ed, it alerted all the other top-
mL? r . z ?? " ?ncu an me omer top-
What this does is dry up the recruiting coaches to get on TV at
lVl:ir?n-II anH III chnnU nA ?. .
Division-II and III schools and
shrinks their paid attendence.
Worse still, it dries up the high
schools. And when you do that,
you're killing grass-roots basket-
ball.
What we have to do is allow
the high schools Tuesday and Fri
u?'rA tnii u V . "?. HiBii suiuuis i ucsaay ana rn-
. HLtalkm? aboutJhe ?ale of day nights in each time belt from
a steak, not th? ctooL- tcu ,
a steak, not the steak itself.
Five years ago, if wanted to see
a good intersectional game, you
had to tune into NBC on the
weekend. Period. A game like
that had sizzle because it was a
treat, something special, the only
game in town. Now, there's so
much steak available, it's in
danger of losing its lure. Another
problem in all this ? thanks to
the expansion of networks ? is
that every night of the week,
there's X amount of quality
games. There's just too much
7-10:00 pm, free of pro or college
basketball, so their budgets can
breathe, so people will go watch
them. And we have to give the
Division-II and III schools their
Wednesdays and Fridays, so they
can get enough warm bodies in
the door to pay the referees.
The reason for the college TV
explosion is not the dollar, like
most people think. What's more
important to the coaches is the
exposure, for recruiting pur-
poses. Super-Channel Nine in
any cost Give it away if you have
to, but get on the tube.
So now almost everybody's got
a network, and there's so many
different games now, that
nobody can get a big audience,
because it's become so diluted. It
used to be, when there was just
two networks, NBC and CBS,
that sponsors could be sure to get
about half the audience, big
numbers, all things being equal.
Now you've got to divide that au-
dience by 20, so the sponsor
won't pay the money, because
their in the minus pool with Mr.
Neilson, and nobody is making
money. The latest example was
just last week, when the Big-10
had to take over its telecasts,
because its licensee was losing
money.

Upsets seem to be the name of
the game as the men's indepen-

Granted, the nets are still hot

them literally? Wen, the Skoal

the obviously under rated Heat
defeated Skoal to win a chance at
the divsional finals.

momentarily in the race for the
championship, meets Unknowns

looking forward to the divisional
finals.
The women's championship
game has already been determin-
ed, but due to deadlines, it will
not be printed until after spring
break. Look for the divisional
champions and how their road
will be paved on the way to the
All-Campus championship in the
post-break issue.
The b-ball courts are not the
only hot items worth mentioning.
The racquetbail doubles tourna-
ment came to a close with
Sneaker Sam's top picks walking
away with the championships.
In the men's-open division,
Jim Hunt and Raymond Song,
the defending champions, held
off Steve Ammons and Brady
Pinner to win the division. The
other men's-division title went to
Ed Jiminez and Ed Smith who
knocked off Carl Bradsher and
Glenn Hamelton.
The women's champs came as
no surprise. Robbie Tweed and
Kim Swinson, the top-seeded
pair, met and defeated Cheryl
Curtis and Kim Adams.
Tennis doubles, team hand-
ball, co-rec volleyball and manv
outdoor activities are on the
March agenda. Check out all the

Stuff or the cynical writer of puff pieces
for People magazine in The Big Chill, a big
part of each character is Goldblum's own
distinctive sell. It's no easy self to define:
vulnerable and manipulative all at once,
manic, charming and gifted with split-

actors who fades into a part, submerging
their off-screen personality. Thus far,
Goldblum has lent his presence to sup-

a leading role.

A year later, Goldblum's height won
him a minor role as a guard in a Joseph

moved to Broadway, Goldblum moved
with it.

1973, Goldblum was in the stage comedy

reason, Altman offered him small roles

each increasingly larger and juicier. In
Next Stof Greenwich Village he was a
keved-up actor who. awaiting a trvout,
imagines so intensely that he'll he re-
jected that he storms out of the room in
a fine froth. In Between the Lines he was a
rock critic for an underground Boston
newspaper who sold his freebie albums
and gave lectures entitled 'Whither Rock

squeak by without working. For the 1979
version of Invasion of the Bodysnatchers he
played a mud-bath proprietor. In Annie
Hall he was on screen for a few memora-
ble moments as a California partygoer
who phones his guru because he's forgot-
ten his mantra. A short-lived TV series.
Tenspeed and Brownshoe, in which he co-
starred with Ben Yereen, also added to
Goldblum's reputation.
But his appearance in Lawrence Kas-
dan's bittersweet comedy The Big Chill
boosted Goldblum several notches above
the (tilt status he had been attaining. As
a once-radical journalist now successfully
employed as a gossip-mongering hack,
Goldblum was a standout among a cast

Bogdanovich, "which deals with some

Bogdanovich is also linked to the
theme of appearances by his tragic love

main reason thai the director has not

Hill has ever worked with. In order to
convey the- needed opulence, production
designer John Vallone built a number of
lavish sets on big sound stages. These
sets included an elaborate French Pro-
vincial design for the hotel suite that
Pivot rents for SI million a month. Later
in the shooting, this set was redesigned
(according to the script's requirements)
to a florid Italian Renaissance night-
mare (complete with working watei foun-
tain), to a vivid post-modern environ-
ment (which included tables resting on
bowling ball legs) and finally to a stark
Bauhaus look.
In view of all the fine talent and pro-
duction values that Brewster's Millions has
going for it, does Hill anticipate a major
hit? "One of the most difficult tilings in

Long before he dove headlong into
nerds and CIA intrigue, Jeff
Kanew had a successful career with
his own Hollywood business. He created
trailers, those brief but mightily impor-
tant "previews of coming attractions"
shown in theatres before the main fea-
ture. Now he's one of Hollywood's cur-
tent in-demand directors, with a solid hit
in Revenge of tin- Nerds and a potentially
strong follow-up called Gotcha, written by
Dan Gordon and Steven Kronish, slated
lor a mid-Mav release.
Kanew
Horizons
Nerds, Gotcha Director Started Small
At 17 Kanew scored a part-time job in
the trailer department of United Artists.
He had dreams of being a rock 'n' roll
star, but discovered instead a promising
future in his unexpected talent for pro-
moting full-length movies with three-
mi: tute reels.
He soon formed his own outfit, Utopia
Productions, and treated trailers for
such films as The Graduate, Midnight (low-
hoy. Rocky and a number of Woody Allen's
movies.
In the simplest sense, a trailer must
c ompress the maximum of action and mood
into a vet small space. Making trailers
educated Kanew on several of filmmak-
ing's finer points. In short order, the
urge to rock and roll took a back seat to
Kanew's growing desire to direct movies.
In 1971 he directed Black Rodeo, a
highly-praised feature-length documen-
tary about a Harlem rodeo. Six years
later he sold Utopia to finance atural
Enemies, which he also wrote and di-
rected. It was a thoroughlv downbeat
story about a disillusioned man who kills
his own family then turns his gun on
himself. "It was the saddest film ever
made Kanew says.
When that attempt flopped, Kanew
took the job of editing the work of an-
other first-time director, Robert Redford.
The film in question, Ordinary People,
went on to win the Oscar as Best Picture
of 1980.
Since prestige attaches to those linked
with a Hollywood winner, Kanew was
able to climb into the director's chair
once more. This time, creating Revenge of
the Serds, he shifted wiselv to an upbeat
storv. Gotcha, which continues that light-
hearted trend, is a romance involving a
college student and a CIA spy.
"I'm a little surprised to learn I have a
knack for light entertainment Kanew
says, referring to his forgotten heavy-
drama debut. "The light stuff is fun
to do ?

Why should you?
My car stereo dealer told me if you want clean,
clear accurate sound-choose your speakers
first. Because if the speakers can't handle
it, you won't hear it. No matter what kind of
sound your receiver pulls in.
Then he told me: Jensen.?
If you want to hear it the way they played it,
choose Jensen speakers first. Jensen invented
car speakers in the first place. And they're
a leader today. Simply because they know
how to deliver the goods.
Naturally I got a Jensen receiver to go
with my Jensen speakers. Great team,
designed to play best together. Makes sense.
Makes great sound, too. I want to hear
it all. With Jensen, I do.
