After eight years as vice-chancellor
'It's time to retireMeyer says Wednesday
By CLAY DEANHARDT
Managing Editor
After eight years of service to
ECU as the vice-chancellor for
student life, Dr. Elmer Meyer, 60,
announced Wednesday he would
retire Aug. 31 to be with his wife in
Washington, D.C.
Meyer let his plans be known in
a letter to the chancellor in which
he said he has enjoyed working at
the university and is proud of his
accomplishments here.
A former professor in the
School of Home Economics at
ECU, his wife Mary has been in
Washington for the past four
years working as a kitchen and
interior designer. Meyer has said
he will join his wife's business
after his retirement.
Meyer came to the school in
1979 after holding the position of
vice president for campus affairs
and dean of students at Cornell
University in Ithica, N.Y. As vice-
chancellor for student life, he
worked closely with students as
advisor to the Student Govern-
ment Association, the Media
Board and other campus organi-
zations.
"It's time to retire Meyer said
Wednesday afternoon. "We've
had a lot of accomplishments, and
my staff has certainly contributed
a lot to the improvement of stu-
dent life
He said his best work at ECU
came when he helped students in
gearing programs that meet their
needs. Specifically he mentioned
the on-going renovations to the
dining facility at Mendenhall and
the improvement in services at
the Student Health Center.
Meyer said the last few months
of his work here will be busy tying
up matters to make the transition
for his successor easier and pre-
paring the fee budget for next
year.
Chancellor Richard R. Eakin
said Meyer will be missed at the
university. "I have enjoyed very
much the opportunity to work
with Dr. Meyer he said. "He has
been very helpful to me in helping
me to understand the university
and in acquainting me with the
various student services that we
have. I certainly shall miss him
because he has been a very able
vice chancellor for student life
Eakin said Meyer had talked for
some time about retiring to move
closer to his wife, "it was just a
matter of his deciding a time
when he would like to do that he
said.
The search for a replacement for
Meyer will begin in the next two
or three weeks with the appoint-
ment of a search committee, Eakin
said. A search is already under-
way to find a new vice-chancellor
for academic affairs, a position
which has been open since Dr.
Angelo Volpe left in June. The
application deadline for that posi-
tion is Jan. 31, Eakin said.
"I believe Dr. Meyer's decision
to let us know at this early date
will be most helpful in our search
(for a replacement) he said.
"This is a good time of the year for
us to make the position known
"As advisor to the student gov-
ernment he has been very good to
deal with and has been instru-
mental in nv own involvement in
SGA student body President
Scott Thomas said Wednesday.
"Dr. Meyer was certainly a great
friend to the students and he
didn't mind sticking up for what
was best for the students
Thomas said Meyer is a good
"idea man" who the SGA could go
to for help and advice.
Meyer graduated from Carroll
College in 1950, where he majored
in business administration and
history and government. He
earned his doctorate from the
University of Wisconsinin 1965 in
counseling and behavioral stud-
ies at higher education.
His accomplishments while at
ECU include the institution of a
full-time coordinator for Handi-
capped Student Services, the es-
tablishment of phones in resi-
dence hall rooms as part of the
rent and the complete renovation
of the Student Health Center.
Meyer has seen the university
through three chancellors,
changes in the drinking age and
unprecedented growth in student
enrollment. During his tenure as
vice-chancellor the computeriza-
tion of the unversify was com-
pleted, as the last departments
received their terminals during
the 1984-85 school year.
He and his wife have been
married since 1954. They have
three children.

When SGA President Scott
Thomas came into office in Au-
gust he bought a new red ink pad
for his official veto stamp on SGA
legislation. So far he hasn't had to
use it.
Thomas' office and the SGA
legislature had few disagree-
ments in the fall of 1987, and
Thomas doesn't forsee any prob-
lems in spring '88.
For 1988, Thomas said he has a
list of items that include working
closely with the new transit direc-
tor, Joanne Pitts, and the new
athletic director, David Hart.
Thomas said he will help Pitts
develop an efficient method for
acquiring the use of the transit
sytem's charter service, which is
used by campus organizations for
transportation. Other plans in the
transit department include the
addition of shelters for riders
waiting for the bus at some bus
stops, Thomas said.
Thomas also plans to help Hart
encourage students to participate
in ECU athletics.
Thomas said he is planning a
leadership seminar that would
have leaders from government,
business and academics come on
campus to speak about leadership
to the 200 campus student organi-
zations. Thomas said he would
work with the Student Union in
order to get the seminar slated for
this semester.
The chancellor's Beautification
Committee is one of Thomas'
concerns. Thomas said he has
appointed two members of his
cabinet to the committee in an
effort to devise a long term plan to
improve ECU'S appearance.
Other plans for 1988 include
making a safer crosswalk at the
intersection of 10th Street and
College Hill Drive. Thomas said
an elevated walk-way may be one
of the solutions in avoiding the
dangers of crossing the busy in-
tersection. One student was hit by
a car in spring, 1987, while trying
to cross 10th Street.

Two ECU students were ar-
rested on drug charges Wednes-
day following a six-month inves-
tigation conducted by narcotic
officers from the Greenville Police
artment and the Pitt County
riff Department, according to
an official with the Sheriffs De-
partment.
Hobert Ferguson and Robert
Wiight were arrested on felony
drug charges following a drug
raid. Two Greenville men, Lee
Hamilton Moore and Randy
Moye, were arrested on similar
charges.
Ferguson was charged with
possession of cocaine with the
intent to sell and selling and traf-
ficking cocaine. Wright was
charged with two counts of pos-
session with the intent to sell
marijuana and two counts of
selling marijuana.
Both students were still in jail at
press time under bail bonds be-
tween $10,000 and $80,000 ac-
cording to the official, who would
comment only on the condition of
annonymity.
Moore was charged with two
counts of possession with the in-
tent to sell hallucinogenic mush-
rooms and two counts of selling
mushrooms.
Narcotic officials estimated
they seized 300 mushroom plants
while arresting Moore. The offi-
cials said the plants would yield
approximately 50 grams of the
hallucinogenic drug.
The other Greenville man,
Moye, was charged with three
counts of conspiring to possess
marijuana, three counts of posses-
sion with the intent to sell and de-
liver marijuana and one count of
possession of marijuana. Bonds
for both Moore and Moye were
set at a range from $10,000 to
$80,000, the official said.
The official said he anticipates
that six other people will be ar-
rested and charged on related
drug possession charges before
the investigation is completed.
Crack, a substance derived
from cocaine, was also found in
Wednesday's raid. Officials
would not comment on the
amount of marijuana and cocaine
seized in the drug raid.
Jordan offers ideas for rural development in N.C.
By KAREN MANN
Staff Writer
Over 200 supporters gathered
at the Greenville American Le-
gion Hall Wednesday night to
hear Lieutenant Governor Bob
Jordan announce that he is a
Democratic Candidate for North
Carolina Governor.
Joined onstage by his family,
Jordan addressed a number of
topics vital to his campaign in-
cluding education, the the recent
phosphate detergent ban and the
need for economic development
in North Carolina's rural areas.
"The fight to secure a future of
opportunity and hope for our
people is being waged in class-
rooms and factories and offices
and homes all across North Caro-
lina. But more importantly, the
fight for that future must be led
from the office of Governor
cyfor
Jordan stressed the need for
growth from within and freedom
from economic dependence or
foreign investors. Jordan then
explained his recent proposal to
abolish the State Department of
Commerce and replace it with an
entreprenurial public-private
partnership known as the North
Carolina Economic Development
Corporation. If the proposal is
accepted, the governor will serve
as chairman of the board and chief
executive officer of the corpora-
tion.
'The corporation will help
North Carolina's small towns and
rural areas grow and prosper he
said.
It will push for the develop-
ment of four lane highways in
those areas that need a new road
to the future. Most important of
all, this new corporation will
bring into state government the
entrepreneurial and market
driven genius and thinking for
tomorrow that exists in the pri-
vate sector
Following the speech, Jordan
discussed his Basic Education
Plan which has provided scholar-
ship loans to over 16,000 educa-
tion students in the last two years.
Since its inception, $6 million
have been appropriated to the
program. However, Jordan be-
lieves that government suport for
the program will continue to
grow.
"It won't be hard to get support
once they see the caliber of stu-
dents participating
Jordan also pointed out what he
feels are some differences be-
tween Governor Jim Martin, a
Republican, and himself.
"Governor Martin is attacking
my plan to make far reaching
changes in the way North Caro-
lina builds its economic future.
But he doesn't understand.
Things are changing and it is
important for North Carolina to
change as well
"The difference between Gov-
ernor Martin and me is that he
believes the Hodges-Sanford-
Hunt record is a record to sit on
and I believe it is a record to build
on.
Jordan cited the accomplish-
ments of several Democratic gov-
ernors including Terry Sanford
and Jim Hunt and added that they
"built a North Carolina that is
recognized as a innovator and a
leader among the states

lake tot instance, when there is
snow and or ice on our streets,
highways, sidewalks, steps, etc
extreme caution should be used
while walking or dining. When
conditions were as they were this
past week you should drive only
when it is absolutely necessary.
Even it you think you know
how to drive on ice or snow, the
drivei ot the vehicle coming to-
ward you or behind you may not,
as main have found out this past
w eek sonic even losing their lives
becauseofit. Even the best of driv-
ers can lose control on ice or
ompacted snow.
It you must drive, drive very
slow lv, do not use brakes as not
mal, only use them when
absolutely necessary with a grad-
ual pumping action. You should
start slowing down way before
sou actually need to stop. It may
be necessary to manually down
shift gears to slow you down. This
is bettor than using your brakes.
You should allow three to tour
times or more distance between
you and the vehicle ahead. Since
you never know what the vehicle
in front of you will do. On Ice if
you do apply brakes and start
sliding, the vehicle will usually
speed up slightly at first instead of
slowing down, taking much
longer to stop than expected.
Remember cm ice you can not
use your brakes as normal! And
that is hard to remember, since it
is instinctive to do so. IV patient
and drive carefully, getting in a
hurry on ice or snow will cause
serious injury or death.
It your vehicle is stuck, please
wait for help. l not attempt to
push your vehicle yourself, with
no driver and the vehicle in gear.
We've had one person on campus
who the vehicle got away from
pinning them between two ve-
hicles. She was fortunate to es-
cape serious injury, but was se-
verely bruised. It pays to think
safety!
Also please remember parking
regulations on campus are still in
effect even in bad weather. So
please do not park where you are
not permitted to.
How about walking in snow
andor ice? Snow alone is not so
bad unless it has been packed or
begun to melt. But ice is another
matter altogether. How do you
walk on it? Very carefully is how 1
do it.
Man)' people have slipped and
fell on ice, including me. It is best
not to wear smooth sole shoes if
you can help it, especially tennis
shoes. Walk with very carefully
placed steps not far apart, will
help when it's real slick. Some-
times no matter how careful you
are, you will slip down.
If you feel your feet slipping,
sometimes it may lv best to just sit
down. Oi course you'll have to
give that quick little glance
around to see who's looking, lor-
get the embarassment; broken
bones are what you're trying to
avoid. Unfortunately wedid have
some people on campus this past
week who were hurt when they
fell. Please be careful, because this
year is supposed to be a severe
weather year according to all indi-
cations, and this may not lv the
last ice or snow we get.
Overall everyone has been
fairly safe on campus during this
hazardous weather and we at
Public Safety would like to com-
mend you on that.
Enough about safety. Let's talV
Crime Prevention. It's already
started, students are being ripped
off by thieves. You know, these
persons who have sticky fingers.
Believe it or not there are those
who want what you've got worse
than you do.
You have to deny them the
opportunity to steal from you.
Some victims make it very easy.
Leaving your room door open or
unlocked is actually helping
thieves to continue to operate on
this campus. 1 know some think
it's silly and inconveiont to carry
keys and lock the door if they are
only going to the bathroom or
across the hall.
But the fact is if you don't, the
chances are one day you are going
to get ripped off. Some even make
it easy tor them even though they
lock the door by leaving a key
outside somewhere. You say
nobody knows about where it's
at, but me and my roommate.
Right!
You would lv surprised at who
knows that key is there, it's just
that some of them who know do
not have sticky fingers but others
do. We have to face the fact that
we live in a time when theft is
prevalent on every college and
university campus, as well as
everywhere we may live, work, or
play.
Each of us has to do his part in
preventing crime by denying the
thief the opportunity to rip us off.
Also to make this campus and
where you live a safer and more
enjoyable place: if you seea crime,
report it and become involved.
Crime in our society has he
come dn everyday occurance
rather than a rarity because we
have the attitude, "it can't happen
to me" and we don't want to git
involved if it's happened to some
body else.
The cuddling ot criminals and
the complexity oi our Judicial
System have made our society
easy prey. Remember, help

Cross not lit at Idaho campus
(CPS) ? Organized prayers
were allowed at the University of
Maryland while a large cross was
banned from the University of
Idaho during the just-passed holi-
day season.
At Idaho, conservative students
lost an effort to preserve a campus
tradition of forming a cross by
leaving on certain rooms lights in
a residence hall.
Meanwhile, across the country
a University of Maryland atheist
student lost his effort to ban
prayers from his winter gradu-
ation ceremony.
Members of Student Values, an
Idaho conservative group, peti-
tioned President Richard Bibb not
to "pull the plug" on the Theophi-
lus Tower cross.
But they were too late. Ul
Spokeswoman Marythea
Grebner said Gibb was respond-
ing to local organizations that had
argued lighting the cross was us-
ing state property to display a
religious symbol.
A local off-camous paper last
year editorialized against the
cross, she said, on the grounds the
state ? fighting an image of being
a refuge for white suprcmicist and
anti-Semitic groups like the Ar-
yan Nations ? couldn't afford to
align itself with any one religious
group.
Grebner predicted the tower

sons to come. "It seems clear the
university is not going to continue
the practice (of having the cross)
The University of Maryland,
meanwhile, plans to continue
including prayers at its gradu-
ation ceremonies.
U.S. District Court Judge Nor-
man Ramsey in December re-
fused to stop officials from lead-
ing a prayer at its December 22
commencement exercises.
Student Matthew Barry, who
said he was an atheist, had asked
the courts to halt the practice. "I
view those prayers as a violation
of my right to be free from govern-
mental endorsement of religion.
The school assumes Barry, now
graduated, won't continue the
case. The issue he raised "is moot
with respect to him UM lawyer
Terence Roach asserted.
Both Roach and James Mingle,
an assistant attorney general han-
dling the case, say another plain-
tiff must be found before argu-

The Ameican Civil Liberties
Union, which represented Barry,

Refund rule is unfair
To the editor:
I am writing this letter in response
to a stupid rule designated by the
Aycock Hall gameroom staff. This
rule states that no refunds referring to
the vending maehines and washer-
dryer facilities can be given over the
weekend. Now, folks, let's get seri-
ous, not ridiculous. Let me give you
an example oi my experience dealing
with this rule.
A few weekends ago, my last three
dollars was to be spent on laundry in
the Aycock basement. No problem.
After putting the money in the
washer an hour later, I noticed that
the washer did not go through the full
cycle, leaving my clothes completely
saturated. So there I was left with a
wet pile ot clothes. Keeping my cool 1
went to the gameroom and asked for
my refund. Did 1 get my refund?
Noooooo! The attendant told me that
no refunds can be given on weekends.
Now, something is wrong here And
it's definitly not me.
This dumb rule, who started it 1
have no idea, affects all of the resi-
dents living on College Hill Drive
Aycock Hall, lanes, Scott, Belk, and
Tyler. Peopleire getting sick and
tired of being ripped off and not get-
ting their refunds just because "it's
the weekend Who knows, maybe
something can be done to change this
rule.
Oh by the way, next time you go to
Aycock to do your laundry on a week-
end, do yourself a favor ? Bring lots
of money because you won't get your
refund!

Journalism
Swimming-free book
io meeuuor:
Like many of you, I was quite ex-
cited to get my free edition of the 1986
edition of the BUCCANNEER. As 1
opened it, I realized why it was free.
After turning the pages briskly to find
the sports section, and eventually the
couple pages on my swim team which
was a particularly fine year for us (21-
4 combined M W record, a confer-
ence championship for the men, and a
top ten finish at Independent Nation-
als), I came to a very sad conclusion.
There was nothing, not a page, pic-
ture or word on the East Carolina
Swim Teams, or on any other of the
several fine athletic teams. How can a
college yearbook be put together so
poorly and incomplete, especially
when they had three years to com-
plete it. 1 hope this situation never
occurs again. I am optimistically
waiting the 1987 edition.

Drinking law
10 the editor:
Raising the drinking age was ad
dressing the very real problem of
drinking and driving Along with the
hike in the drinking age the states
were forced to pass tougher drinking
and driving laws. North Carolina has
some of the toughest Localities were
given large amounts ot money to
enforce these new laws. Greenville
was given a million dollars in 1987.
I'd like to raise some questions. It
road safety was the concern, and the
government was willing to spend
some money to improve things wh)
raise the drinking age. Do you know
anybody who is under twenty-one
and does not drink because they are
underage? Why were alternate es not
considered? Imagine the public tran
sit system QreenviUe could have tor
those who go downtOAyu with,a nuV,
lion dollars a year. Vhere are other
obvious questionable aspects of the
law, like how many established bars
were brutalized economically and
directly by not being able to keep their
underage patrons from not dunking
Well 1 think the answers are clear.
It is a stupid law. It is an oppressive
law. It is an abused law and the drink-
ing age should not be twenty-one.
It was brought about by what has
been called sleazy legislative black-
mail. Ronald Reagan wants to reduce
the size of the national government
by creating a new state heavy federal-
ism. Yet, he bribes the states with
highway funds. Everyone knows it
was a sere wed-up procedure to main-
tain the votes of uptight conserva-
tives. (Not all conservatives are up-
tight.) Well, the times have changed.
Reagan has never been so power-
less. Things look good for the demo-
crats in the '88 presidential election. It
is time to make the drinking age an
issue. Remember, if you can vote and
if you pay taxes (which includes sales
tax) the government works for you.
These people are your Congressmen
and Senators. The laws ire your laws.

See SANDINISTAS, page 5
A wise student advocate will be missed
It is with mixed emotions that we
view the retirement announcement
made yesterday by Dr. Elmer
Meyer, vice-chancellor for student
affairs.
We are happy for him, especially
since he will be able to live with his
wife Nancy in Washington, D.C.
After almost five years of having a
"commuting" marriage, we know
he will enjoy the benefits of a stable
homelife.
But at the same time we are sad to
see him go. The university is losing a
good administrator; but more im-
portantly, the students are losing a
good friend.
Meyer has been admired through
the years for fairness in his treat-
ment of and dealings with students.
It was just last year that he stood up
for John Shannon, former managing
editor of The East Carolinian, as
campus conservatives called for his
dismissal when he openly endorsed
a candidate on the editorial page.
Meyer calmly and wisely pointed
out that Shannon was protected by
the first amendment to the U.S.
Constitution, thus averting what
could have been a major injustice.
It is going to be hard to imagine the
SGA without the guidance of
Meyer, who has long been an idea
man for the organization.
Meyer has also been here during a
long period of growth for the uni-
versity, and has kept the interests of
the students in mind through it all.
Through the storm Df the Thomas
Brewer administration, the aca-
demic growth of the John Howell
tenure and now the growing pains
of the Richard Eakin first year,
Meyer has quietly worked to bring
high-quality services to the stu-
dents. The additions to Mendenhall
Student Center and the renovations
of the Student Health Center will
stand as testimony to his dedication

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
JANUARY 14, 1988 5
A grim trip to Glamourama
It is a hot Saturday in late Au-
gust. The tell-tale signs of fall
whisper the coming of a cooler
season, a few leavesdrifting to the
ground, a certain mistiness, a
change of tempo, something in
the blood. But the 100 degree
temperature isn't reading the
signs. It is hot, but the laundry
needs doing.
Historically, laundry has been
women's work. And in poor
towns and poor neighborhoods,
historically the laundromat has
been a neighborhood meeting
place, a community center, a
pulse, still with some of the attrib-
utes of the river and the rocks
where the hard dirt from working
men's clothes were beat out on
their granite surfaces
Things have changed. There are
as many kinds of laundromats as
there are lifestyles, incomes and
even desires for anonymity. In
some upper level neighborhoods
populated by apartment dwellers
and dormitory residents, tempo-
rary perchers, a person can do
one's laundry, never speak to
anyone and never see the same
person twice. Such a place is the
laundromat I usually go to. I too
frequently need to do my clothes
in a bubble of silence catching up
on the thoughts that occupy me,
Sandinistas
Continued from page 4
and "are changing poor
conditions" in Nicaragua. Noth-
ing could be further from the
truth Much of the decline in
popular support for the Sandinis-
tas is the result of the economic
hardships they have caused. In-
flation is 1,000 percent per vear!
Basic consumer goods are
unavailable to most Nicaraguans,
and the country is commonly re-
ferred to as La Tierra No Hay ?
the land of no goods. The import-
export ratio is now 4-to-l.
Myriam Arguello Morales, sec-
retary-general of the Conserva-
tive party of Nicaragua, the main
opposition party to Somoza and
today as well, says the Sandinista
regime is more repressive, brutal
and corrupt than the Somoza
dynasty it replaced. "You can't
compare it she says. "It is much
worse now. We didn't have hon-
est elections in the time of So-
moza, but at least the people had
food
Publicly, and for the benefit of
gullibles like Miss Morrow, the
Sandinistas blame the Contras for
their economic woes, saying they
must spend 40 to 50 percent of
their budget on the war effort. But
Nicaragua gets all of its weaponry
free, and the Soviet bloc also do-
nates rice and corn to the Sandin-
ista military. In addition,
Nicaragua's military buildup
began the moment the Sandinis-
tas took power, before the Contras
even existed.
Morrow praises the Sandinistas
for signing the Arias Peace Plan.
The undeserved Nobel prize be-
stowed on it notwithstanding, the
"Peace" plan is a joke. It makes
provisions to cut off US aid from
the Contras, but says nothing
about stopping the huge amounts
of Soviet aid to the Sandinistas,
provides no timetable for internal
reforms, and no means of sanction
should the reforms go unfulfilled.
In short, it is worthless as far as
TRUE peace and freedom are
concerned.
NOW you have some of the "big
picture" about Nicaragua, Ms.
Morrow, not the ridiculous no-
tions ot Marxist sympathizing
liberals who, of course, are left,
not right! .

of freshly-painted white stucco in

color TV strategically poised near

peole who don't want to read. My
last visit there I tuned in and out to
the Oprah Winfrey Show and lis-
tened to a man in a blue striped
suit and Hush Puppies argue that
women don't do the best they can
with what they have, a contention
he nc-v-er managed to support.
But today the itinerary for my
errands doesn't include this cool
cave away from the heat and
hassle of the workaday world,
this sacred temple to the god
cleanliness where everything
works effortlessly.
Today I stop at Glamourama.
With its faded sign out front and
the dirt road across a vacant field
littered with soft drink bottles and
styrofoam fast food containers, it
is an easy eyesore to miss. The
front door is propped open, sig-
naling the presence of un-condi-
tioned air, and the pay telephone
just outside the door is being used
by a girl of 12 or 13 who tries to
watch three younger children
while she talks on the phone.
Glamourama is located in what
started to be a small shopping
center across from Roses, Hills
and Revco, but with the addition
of a Family Dollar Store next door,
the developer either ran out of
ideas or money and quit.
Glamourama shares a run down
vellow brick building with a
cleaning establishment. The heat
from the machines is wilting, and
the three large women who work
behind the counter to take clean-
ing, make change and dispense
soap powder look frazzled. Their
faces are oily and they are tired.
It's only 11 a.m.

This laundromat serves an area
which could be called marginal,
although what determines the
margins is a matter of debate. The
houses range from proudly poor
but to on-our-way-up-and-out to
downright dilapidated rental
duplexes, aging boxy dwellings
with balding yards. It costs to
water. It costs to mow.
The occupants today are all
female except for one slightly
hung-over looking fellow in
shorts. Most of the women are
upending her bottle of chocolate
with the expectation of finishing
and leaving and that is that, pre-
dominates. This is a place less
appealing than home, a place to
come to and do your laundry.
That is all it is. The family waits,
the family needs the neatly folded

woman in a hot-looking beltless
black and red dress with the
sleeves torn out, leans against the

window of the washer, watching
her mechanical helper, a silent
and uncomplaining worker.
It's a workplace, don't forget
that. A mood of resigned and
exhausted acceptance coupled

will be back here again next week,
washing the same clothes if the
paycheck holds out.
This is no place to linger.

Laws over oceans are sought by some states
CHARI ESTON S.C (AD
rhe nation s coastal states would
like to see Congress create a fed-
eral commission tin year to re
v iew lavs s concerning coastal and
ocean matters according to the
director of the Coastal States
v h mi uition.
What the commission will do
is take a fresh look at existing
federal law we have, the local re-
lationships between the tederal
government and the states land
whether we're doing enough
with respect to ocean and coastal
resources Gary Magnuson said.
1 le said the group would then
prepare recommendations tor the
Congress and the president on
what ought to be done.
A bill tocreatea National Ocean
Policy Commission that would
look at such matters over a two-
year period has been passed by
the IS. 1 louse and is pending in
the Senate, he said.
"It's an ettort to cut across the
obstacles of trving to develop a
comprehensive (coastal and
ocean) police said Magnuson,
who was in Charleston tor the
annual meeting of the Coastal
States Organization.
Such a review is needed, he
said, because "when you try to
deal with coastal issues and ocean
issues it cuts across many tederal
laws and many congressional
committees so it's hard toget final
action on a bill"
"The commission will give us
an opportunity to examine the
whole relationship between the
government and the states. For a
long time tederal ocean law just
governed federal activities. But
the states are impacted by what
goes (mi in the ocean. It's all one
framework he said.
The Coastal States Organiza
tion is made up oi gubernatorial
appointees from 3(1 coastal states
and five territories. The group's
annual meeting was to conclude
tod a v.
Meanwhile, the group is also
hopeful Congress will tins year
approve comprehensive oil spill
legislation that's "been around
tor five or six congresses Mag
nuson said.
The measure would form a sys-
tem of liability and compensat
"a way in whi h to addre

hold those who have spilled
accountable and to compel

There is now no lear . ut poll
on oil spills, simply a "mish i

Report urges universities to seek funds from private firms
RALEIGH (AP) ?A University
of North Carolina Board of Gov-
ernors panel is expected to con-
sider a report Thursdav which
strongly encourages the state's
university svstem to cultivate re-
search partnerships with the pri-
vate sector within the bounds of
academic freedom.
The report also calls for the sys-
tem to aggressively seek research
funds from private firms, founda-
tions and government agencies.
The report is the second of a
two-part statement on the rela-
tions between the University of
North Carolina's 16-campus sys-
tem and private industry.
It discusses faculty consulting,
agricultural extension programs,
small business centers, and pro-
grams specially tailored for busi-
ness executives and employees. It
concludes that collaboration be-
tween the university and the pri-
vate sector is "mutually benefi-
cial" and should be strongly en-
couraged "provided that faculty
academic freedom and graduate
student rights are not violated
according to the News and Ob-
server of Raleigh.
If approved, the report would
be considered by the full board at
its February meeting. Similar
guarantees of academic freedom
are included in the board's poluj
governing the university's re-
search relationship with private
industry.
The first part of the report was
unanimously approved in May
by the ?2-membcr panel. It states
that research contracts with in-
dustry should support the
university's educational mission,
should not restrict the faculty's
right to publish and should not
hamper graduate students from
publishing or defending their
dissertations.
Tliat policy gives chancellors
the authority to approve proprie-
tary, or secret, research in jointly
funded projects and to approve
restrictions on the right of faculty
or students to publish their find-
ings. Chancellors must report to
UNC system President CD.
Spangler each time they approve
research projects that carry such
limitations.

1951 and 12.

Society urges NASA to send
an expedition to Mars
THOMASVILLE, N.C. (AP) ?
With the space shuttle program
stalled, members of the Planetary
Society say the United States
space program should concen-
trate on a new giant leap for
mankind ? setting foot on Mars.
Based in Pasadena, Calif the
seven-year-old society, which
calls itself the largest space inter-
est organization in the world,
claims over 100,000 members,
some 1,500 of which live in North
Carolina.
The founders were people in-
volved in the Viking landings
who had become discouraged by
a space program that had become
"missionless, goalless" in the late
1970s, spokesman Tim Lynch
said.
"In the 1960s, President Ken-
nedy was the political force that
the country united behind to put a
man on the moon Lynch said.
"We would like to see a new gen-
eration make a fairly significant
commitment to the space pro-
gram.
"We don't want to see politi-
cians be too conservative on the
space program because they feel
there's no public interest
The Viking landings, invalu-
able as they were scientifically,
hardly fired the public's imagina-
tion after the initial disappoint-
ment of finding little evidence of
life.
The only possible signs of life,
scientists said, were chemical re-
actions in the soil tests that might
be attributed to microorganisms.
But the reactions also might be
due to soil chemistry that is differ-
ent from Earth's, they said.
The space program has not
launched a planetary probe since
1978. Instead, the space shuttle
became NASA's darling.
But with delays plaguing the
program and the Challenger trag-
edy in January 1986, the American
space program has been in a vir-
tual standstill, especially when
compared to the industrious So-
viet program.
A July "Case for Mars" confer-
ence at the University of Colorado
saw NASA administrator James
Fletcher tell the many scientists
there that "I believe we should go,
and I'm confident we will go
But he said "the question is
when will we be ready?"
The society wants to change the
course of the American program
by promoting the Mars Declara-
tion, already signed by what
Lynch calls an impressive cross-
section of people who influence
public opinion.
The declaration describes Mars'
mysteries and how they may help
Earth.
"How did a once earthlike
world become so parched, frigid
and comparatively airless it
asks.
The declaration tries to ignite
man's frontier spirit by describing
the beauties of a great canyon that
would cross most of the United
States and extinct volcanoes that
dwarf anything on Earth.
Signess have included both
Republicans and Democrats,
high-ranking military offficcrs
and leaders of peace groups,
Nobel Laureates, university
presidents, football coaches, en-
tertainers and authors, the Plane-
tary Society says.
Among the North Carolina
signers is Bruce Poulton, Chancel-
lor of North Carolina State Uni-
versity.
Other well-known signees are
Carl Sagan, Johnny Carson,
Jimmy Carter, Walter Cronkite,
Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and
former NASA admisistator Tho-
mas Paine.
The Society hopes to revive the
stagnant U.S. planetary program
in an almost spiritual way, the
declaration says.
Also, Lynch said that because
1988 is an election year, the soci-
ety wants to show political candi-
dates that there is strong public
interest in the space program.
One North Carolina member of
the society says he sees strong

FBI alleges sources lied about Ginsburg
NEW YORK (AP) ? The FBI
has information that some associ-
ates of Judge Douglas H.
Ginsburg lied when they denied
knowledge of his past marijuana
use, according to a published
report.
The New York Times, citing
anonymous law-enforcement of-
ficials, reported in Wednesday
editions that the FBI would for-
ward the information to the Jus-
tice Department.
The newspaper said it was un-
likely that criminal charges
would be brought against the
associates because the back-
ground interviews were not con-
ducted under oath. But the Times
said the FBI was considering
changing procedures for back-
ground checks.
Ginsburg withdrew his nomi-
nation to the Supreme Court in
November after disclosing that he
used marijuana before becoming
a judge.
The FBI routinely asks charac-
ter witnesses during background
checks whether a candidate has
abused alcohol or illicit drugs.
"There were people inter-
viewed who obviously knew
about Ginsburg's use of mari-
juana and did not reveal it to us
Floyd I. Clarke, and assistant di-
rector of the bureau, told the
Times. He declined to discuss
details of the case.
The FBI ha said it interviewed
more than 100 people about
Ginsburg in five separate investi-
gations and that none of them
disclosed his drug use.

this year. If you have never filed,
this may be your year to start. And
if your income is low enough, you
may no longer be required to file
at all.
Thanks to the 1986 tax overhaul,
there are some new forms and
some old forms that look differ-
ent. The old standard deduction,
replaced for a few years by the
"zero bracket amount is back
and bigger. Some favorite deduc-
tions have been repealed and
others have been reduced. There
is an entirely new set of provi-
sions affecting children.
The personal exemption has
been almost doubled. Tax rates
have been cut significantly for
most people, although that will
make little difference in how a
return is completed.
Some things never change. The
main individual tax form, 1040, is
still blue, the short form 1040A is
still pink and the simple 1O40EZ is
still green. The filing deadline is
still April 15. And if you wait too
long to file, your refund will be
delayed.
Because of changes in deduc-
tions, you may be among several
million people who will no longer
find it profitable to itemize. Un-
fortunately, the only way to find
out for sure is to total up your
deductions and see whether they
are larger than the standard de-
duction.
Here are some highlights of the
new law, the most thorough over-
haul since the income tax law was
enacted in 1913:
? Rates: The old law had 15 rates
for single people and 14 for joint
returns; they ranged from 11 per-
cent to 50 percent. For income
earned in 1987 there were five,
ranging from 11 percent to 38.5
percent.
? Exemptions: You'll be able to
exempt from taxation $1,900 of
your income, plus an equal
amount for your spouse and each
dependent. That is up from $1,080
for 1986.
? Standard Deduction: If you
don't itemize, reduce your in-
come subject to taxation by $2,540
if single or head of household,
$3,760 if filing a joint return, or
$1,880 if married filing separately.
If you are at least 65 or blind,
you are allowed $3,000 if single,
$4,400 if head of household,
$5,000 if married filing jointly or
$2,500 if married and filing sepa-
rately. An elderly or blind person
gets another $750 if single or head
of household and $600 if married;
those figures are doubled if a
person is both blind and elderly.
But the elderly and blind no
longer have additional exemp-
tions.
? Two-Earner Deduction: This
special benefit for couples has
been repealed.
? IRA: The days of deductible
Individual Retirement Accounts
for everybody are over. Now,
your deduction will be reduced or
eliminated altogether if you are
covered by a company pension
plan and your income exceeds a
certain level. This will require
some new calculations on your
return.
? Capital Gains: These profits
from the sale of assets are now
fully taxable, at a maximum rate
of 28 percent.
? Income Averaging: This tax-
saving device for people whose
incomes fluctuate sharply from
year to year has been repealed.
? Contributions: Unless you
itemize, you are no longer al-
lowed to deduct gifts to charity.
? State, Local Taxes: Sales taxes
are no longer deductible.
? Interest: Only 65 percent of
your 1986 personal interest ex-
penses - including consumer and
automobile loans - is deductible.
In addition, you may fully deduct
home mortgage interest on a loan
that does not exceed the cost of the
home plus any improvements
you have made, you may exceed
cost of you borrow against your
home to pay medical or educa-
tional expenses. No new restric-
tions for pre-Aug. 16,1986, mort-
gages.
? Medical Expense: You may
deduct only unreimbursed ex-
penses that exceed 7.5 percent of
your adjusted gross income.
? Miscellaneous Expenses: In
most cases, only the portion of
these expenses, such as union
dues, job-search expenses and
work tools, that exceeds 2 percent
of adjusted gross income is de-
ductible.
? Children: Any dependent at
least 5-ycars old must have a So-
cial Security number. One with
any interest or other unearned
income and total income over
$500 must file a return. A person
who may be claimed as a depend-
ent by someone else is no longer
allowed a personal exemption. A
child under 14 who had more that
$1,000 of investment income dur-
ing the year will have to fill out a
special new form and that income
may be taxed at the parent's
higher rate.

$4,400 over must file '87 federal tax returns
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) ?
you must file a 1987 federal tax
return if you had income of $4,400
or more ? unless you were mar-
nod, widowed, self-employed,
over 65 or somebody's depend-
ent.
Filing requirements are leased
on age. amount and type of in-
come, marital status and whether
veu are blind. The new tax law
generally raised the maximum
income a person may earn with-
out filing, removing at least scv-
hundred thousand from the
tax rolls. But other provisions of
I law could require as many as
illion children under theageof
14 to le tor the first time.
Similar factors determine
ich tax form you should file ?
lecision that also will be influ-
d by whether you itemize
ctions.
. must tile if you are
? Single, under 65 and income is
$4,400 or more; under 65 and le-
gally blind, $4,900; 65 or older,
$5,650.
? Married, Joint Return, if you
and your spouse are under 65 and
income is at least $7,560; both are
under 65 and at least one is blind,
$8,800; one spouse is 65 or older,
$9,400; or, both are 65 or older,
$10,000. You do not qualify for
joint-return treatment if you and
your spouse were not living to-
gether at year-end or if either
could be claimed as a dependent
by another person.
? Married, Seperate Returns,
regardless of age or sight, if in-
come is at least $1,900.
? Head of Household, under 65
and income of at least $4,440;
under 65 and blind, $6,300; or, 65
or older, $7,050. As a general rule,
for this status and its lower tax
rate you must have been consid-
ered unmarried on Dec. 31 and
paid more than half the cost of
maintaining a home for more than
half the year for yourself and an
unmarried child or a dependent.
? A Widow or Widower, meet
certain qualifications, are under
65 and income is at least $5,660;
under 65 and blind. $6,900. or 65
or older $7,500. This filing status
with lower tax rates is generally
available for one whose spouse
died in 1985 or later, who dJd not
remarry before 1988, who has a
dependent child and who paid
more than half the cost of main-
taining a home for that child for
the full year.
? Self Employed and had net
earnings of $400 or more.
A dependent child must file a
separate return if he or she had
total income over $500 last year
and even $1 of that was interest or
other investment income. Even if
there is no investment income, the
dependent must file if total in-
come exceeds $2540.
But that's not all.
A return also is required from a
dependent child who can be
claimed as a dependent by an-
other person and has only earned
income ? wages, fees and tips ?
of over $2,540, or only investment
income over $500, or total income
of any kind over $500.
If you received advance pay-
ments from the earned-income
credit for working-poor families
last year, you must file a return
regardless of income. And a re-
turn also is required to obtain a
refund if you have no tax liability
but taxes were withheld from
your wages.
Having determined that you
must file a return, your next deci-
sion is which form to use. That is
considerably easier:
? Use the one-page Form
1040EZ if you are single, claim no
other dependents, have no deduc-
tions, claim no tax credits and
have taxable income under
$50,000 which must have been
entirely from wages and tips,
except for up to $400 in interest.
? Use Form 1040A if your tax-
able income is under $50,000 and
is entirely from wages, tips, inter-
est, dividends and unemploy-
ment compensation; you do not
itemize deductions and the only
credit you claim is for job-related
child-care expenses. You may use
this shorter form even if you qual-
ify for an Individual Retirement
? Use Form 1040 if neither of the
other forms fits. You may file this
long form even if you do not
itemize deductions.

or head of household),
33,760 (married filing a joint re-
turn), or $1,880 (married filing
separately). Those figures arc
higher if you or your spouse is
over 65 or blind.
Here is how the new law affects
itemized deductions on your 1987
return:
? Medical Expenses: You may
deduct the portion of unreim-
burscd medical and dental ex-
penses that exceeds 7.5 percent of
your adjusted gross income, or
AGI. Last year it was 5 percent of
AG1. Eligible expenses include
fees for doctors, dentists and
nurses; prescription drugs, insu-
lin, medical-insurance premiums,
eyeglasses, hearing aids and
transportation to obtain medical
care (oil and gas or 9 cents a mile,
plus parking and tolls).
? Sales Taxes: No longer de-
ductible.
? Interest: Only 65 percent of
consumer interest paid last year,
including automobile loans,
credit cards and borrowing for
education, is deductible. Con-
sumer interest includes any por-
tion of home mortgage interest
that is not fully deductible. You
may need to file the new Form
8598 to calculate the mortgage
deduction.
There also is a new restriction
on deducting interest on money
borrowed to make investments.
You may deduct investment
interest up to the total of net in-
vestment income (which is invest-
ment income minus all invest-
ments expenses except interest)
plus 65 percent ? but no more
than $6,500 ? of interest that ex-
ceeds net income. Investment
interest that is not deductible this
year may be carried over to next
year's return.
? Moving Expenses are deduct-
ible under the new law only if you
itemize. If you changed jobs last
year and added at least 35 miles
each way to your commute, you
may be able to deduct some or all
the costs of moving your posses-
sions, looking for a house before
you moved, and selling your old
home. Publication 521, free from
the IRS, has all the details.
Miscellaneous Expenses gen-
erally are deductible only to the
extent they exceed 2 percent of
AGI. These include union dues,
job-search expenses, fees for tax
advice and return preparation,
work clothes and uniforms, rental
of safe-deposit box in connection
with your investments, and cer-
tain unreimbursed employee
business expenses, such as travel
and transportation.
A few miscellaneous expenses
are fully deductible, without the 2
percent limitation. These include
gambling losses to the extent of
winnings; certain job-related ex-
penses required of a handicapped
person, and, for one year only,
certain expenses related to mu-
tual funds.
? Contibutions: Travel, meals
and lodging expenses incurred
while away from home serving a
charity may be deducted only if,
in the words of the IRS, "there is
no significant element of personal
pleasure, recreation or vacation"
involved.

campus, for the most part, yet we are very active on

decades, have become a maior part of the univer-

Student Union hosts Buffett concert;
plans for future musical performances
By GRETCHEN JOURNIGAN
Staff Writer
Laureen Kirsch, Student Union
president, says that there is a lot
more to hosting a compus concert
than what most people may think.
Kirsch says that group's agents
call the school to ask if they can
play on a particular date instead
of the school calling them.
Before a concert contract can be
signed, the athletic and health
education departments must be
consulted first. The departments
have to reschedule classes and
sports activities held in Minges in
order for the concert to take place.
Kirsch says that the beginning
of the school year is probably the
best time to schedule a show be-
cause there's not an indoor sports
schedule to compete with. Some-
times, it may take a month or
longer before the arrangements
are finalized.
There's not a big profit made
from ticket sales. At the most
there may be $200 ma.de, said
Kirsch.
The upcoming Jimmy Buffet
concert, Cheap Vacation, costs
$65,000. This money comes from
students activity fees which is
$22.50 per person.
Arrangements for the Buffet
concert has taken about 2 months,
she said.
Kirsch says that campus con-
certs are not sponsored Ty us but
through us The school adver-
tises alone with the radio stations
and the school provides the use of
the coliseum.
At the concerts, the ECU concert
committee is sometimes asked to
work backstage, but this is deter-
mined m thecontract.
Also, the committee is respon-
sible for making hotel rcser
vations for the band.
Kirsch said that the past Anita
Baker concert went over great and
expects that Buffett will too.
January 28 at 8 p.m. will be his
first appearance at ECU in 7 years.
After the performance, Buffett
will continue his tour to Fairfax,
Virginia & Washington, D.C.
He will be featuring his most
recent album "Holidays Tickets
are $13 for ECU students and $16
for general public. The cost is $16
at the door.
Tickets can be purchased at East
Coast Music & Video, Z103 and at
the Central Ticket Office at Men-
denhall.
Kirsch says that there arc still
tickets left.
As an extra promotion effort
there will be a casino night Jan. 25
in the multi-purpose room in
Mendenhall where 2 tickets will
be given away.
Also WZMB, will give away a
Buffett CD package to a lucky
winner. Entry forms can be found
at Joyner Library and at WZMB.
Kirsch says that Alabama may
come next but won't be discussed
until after the Jimmy Buffett con-
cert.
She says that the committee is
open for concerts they would
want to see in the near future.

'Beauty' survives ratings
By MICAH HARRIS
Staff Writer
If ever a series seemed destined
for an early death, it was certainly
CBS's "Beauty and the Beast" In
me first place, the ptwmJBurttrf
synopsis (female reporter fights
social injustice with aid of hulking
sewer monster) sounded like a re-
hash of DC Comics' "Angel and
the Ape secondly, network TV's
misun ierstanding of fantasy has
had Hans Christian Anderson
and the Brothers Grimm whirling
in their graves for decades
thirdly, the title is a cliche.
So, why is "Beauty and the
Beast" far from being on ice at
mid-season? Why did it initially
maintain good ratings and shows
signs of being a cult series? Be-
cause it has admirably sur-
mounted the odds, thaf s why.
What it lacks in plot originality
(and who has an original plot
these days?) it makes up for in the
richer areas of characterization
and style. What other current
program makes literary refer-
ences (Shakespeare, Dickens, and
Dickinson, for example) on a
regular basis?

milton and Ron Perlman hi

Herein is the series' main struc-
tural fault: every week, Hamilton
must get in some sort of trouble.
Sometimes, it's the Beast who gets
in trouble and Hamilton must
rescue him, but that is hardly a
successful plot variation. Also,
the pay-off of the "beast" trans-
forming into a prince can never
happen as long as the series runs.
But this last "flaw" has been
transcended because the charac-
ter of Vincent, the Beast, is al-
ready, a prince. Although this is

Peele Wimberly is one of the

North Carolina. He is not a power

Mitch Easter did do a good job
mixing the drams.
Mike Connell's lead riffs try to
give the record a Scottish flavor

WILSON, N.C. (AP) - Doug

his beefy, red face. Morning sun-

front window of the Downtown

Welcome to Wilson, population
37,000, the typical town in North
Carolina's 40-county "coastal
plain" separating Raleigh from
the Atlantic. The area is known for
flat terrain, pine forests, humid
summers and pork barbecue.
And for conservative politics.
Democrats have been as domi-
nant in Eastern North Carolina
most of the 20th Century as has
tobacco, the region's economic
lifeblood. But the GOP has made
inroads. Even former Gov. Jim
Hunt, the pride of nearby Rock
Ridge, barely held his own in
Eastern counties in 1984 when he
failed to unseat Sen. Jesse Helms.
Former Sen. Gary Hart, Massa-
chusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis
and Sen. Albert Gore have made
campaign stops in Wilson. Last
month, Jane Gephardt, wife of
Rep. Richard Gephardt, D-Mo
made the pilgrimage. Jesse
Jackson was scheduled to visit but
changed his plans.
North Carolina is the third-
laigcst of the 14 Southern and
border states holding primaries
on "Super Tuesday" - March 8,
1988.
Most observers believe a desire
to curry favor with the still-influ-
ential Hunt, who recently en-
dorsed Sen. Albert Gore, is behind
Wildon's popularity with the
Democratic hopefuls
But common folk seem
unimpressed.
"I think most people are so
damn disgusted with the deficit
and everything, they're disgusted
with politicians Smith says in
the Rib Room.
Who would he like to see in the
White House?
"A Christian businessman, not
a politician Then, after a pause:
"But if a Christian businessman
becomes a politician, then he
probably wouldn't be a Christian
businessman any more
At a downtown barber shop,
John Whitley snips a customer's
hair, David Lewis, 56, who retired
early because of arthritis in his
hands, looks on.
"I haven't decided who I'm
voting for says Lewis, a Demo-
crat who often crosses party lines.
"Some people say '1 was born a
Democrat and I'll die a Demo-
crat You ain't born nothing
Whitley is a Democrat but
hasn't voted that way in two dec-
ades. He gestures toward a
framed photograph on the wall.
The faces are of Lyndon Johnson,
wife Lady Bird, and former Vice
president Hubert Humphrey. But
the picture has been doctored: all
three have the bodies of gangsters
clad in pinstriped suits, clutching
tommy guns.
"They ran me off" from the
Democratic Party, Whitley says.
James Boswell, 53, a retired
Army sergeant, voted for Ronald
Reagan in 1984 but says he'll re-
turn to the Democratic fold in
1988 "if I vote. They (Democrats)
haven't got anybody worth vot-
ing for yet
Bill's Barbecue is a Wilson land-
mark. The walls are lined with
trophy cases, plaques and pic-
tures of hogs and stock car driver
Richard Petty. Menu favorites are
pork barbecue, fried chicken,
Brunswick stew and corn sticks.
Many visiting politicians eat
here. Mrs. Gephardt and her en-
tourage were the latest. But owner
Bill Ellis doesn't take sides: "I feed
everybody
Ellis, 54, has the look of an out-
doorsman: sandy hair, ruddy
complexion, sports shirt opened
at the neck, windbrcakcr jacket.
"I haven't talked to anybody
who's excited about the presiden-
tial race he says. "Nobody's
made up their minds yet Has he
attended the candidates' appear-
ances? "If he doesn't come to see
me, I don't go to see him"
Parkwood Mall is Wilson's link
with Everytown, USA: fast-food
restaurants, department stores,
Radio Shack, Baskin-Robbins. It's
early afternoon on a weekday,but
stores are crowded with Christ-
mas shoppers.
Ruth Liner, a retired school-
teacher, cuddles her 2-year-old
granddaughter. She's a Republi-
can, but hasn't decided whom to
vote for. She's dimly aware that
Democratic candidates have vis-
ited.
Trip McKinnon, 19, dips frozen
yogurt at a sidewalk stand. He's
an ardent Democrat, a family
friend of Hunt's, and met Dukakis
during his Wilson stopover.
"He's a caring man, and we
have too many politicians who
don't care any more McKinnon
says.
Gladys Tucker, a black woman
who operates a small "outreach
ministry" with her husband, says
she's no political junkie but
probably will vote for Jackson.
"Everybody in our church likes
him Mrs. Tucker says.
Her husband, Nathaniel, leans
toward Jackson but is so con-
cerned about a breakdown of
morals that he might back Pat
Robertson.
He hasn't seen any of the visit-
ing Democrats. Nor, he says, have
most of his barber shop patrons.
"Most people who come in like
Jesse Jackson because he's a black
candidate Tucker says. "They're
not all that upon politics but they

Health.
According to statistics from the
WHO, the smoking rate in the
West is declining at a rapid annual
rate of 2.1 percent, prompting
many tobacco firms to channel
their products to Asia, where
smoking is increasing in some
countries.
"1 sense a growing determina-
tion among my colleagues to act

After a dazzling beginning,
East Carolina's hopes for an upset
got shot down by South Carolina
Wednesday night in Minges Coli-
seum.
Behind a balanced scoring at-
tack, the Gamecocks rolled to a 78-
51 victory. With the win, South
Carolina improved to 8-3 for the
season, while the Pirates dropped
to 5-8.
"They shot the ball better to-
night than I thought they would
ECU head coach Mike Stecle said.
"If they continue to shoot like
that, they are going to win a lot of
games
Tony Shaw and Brent Price led
the scoring attack for the Game-
cocks with 14 points each, while
Terry Dozicr added 12 and Terry
Gould 10.
Reed Lose paced the Pirates
with 15 points, 11 of which came
in the first half, while Gus Hill
chipped in 11.
The Pirates blitzed to a 8-2 lead
early as Lose hit bottom on his
first three field goals.
Stanley Love put the Pirates up

half before South Carolina began
a run to overtake the lead.
The Gamecocks took the lead
for good in the contest on a layup
by Terry Dozicr with 13:27 to play
in the half. Moments later, Dozier
stole a errant pass from walk-on
guard David Simmons and
rammed it through for a 14-11
lead.
"Their defense took us right out
of what we wanted to do said
St?le. "They were just so big and
they pressured the ball very well.
We've gotten some quality min-
utes from David (Simmons) this
year, but their defense was really
tough on him

Hinton (who was attending his
grandfather's funeral) and I just
didn't see much zip in them to-
night. Not making excuses but we
did have two walk-ons (Simmons
and Kenny Murphy) out there a
lot tonight and they were having
to go against some real good ath-

The Pirates seemed poised to
begin a comeback in the second
half as they quickly closed the gap
to 11,38-27, behind a pair of jump-
ers from I Jill and a score from
Love with 18:27 to play.
After watching the lead fluxtu-
ate between 11 and 13 for the first
five minutes of the half, the Pi-
rates saw their upset hopes go up
in smoke as the Gamecocks reeled
off 10 straight points in a three
minute span.

matters worse, the Lady Pirates
have been hampered all year with
nagging injuries to key personnel.
All things considered together

Pirates.
Leading the Pirates this year are
senior forwards Monique Pom-

Contributing from the
