N.C. governer calls for tight
enforcement of drug laws
Governor Jim Martin today
announced a package d legisla-
tive proposals that would tighten
law enforcements grip on con-
victed drug traffickers by forcing
them to serve their full sentences
without benefit oi early release
from prison.
Under present law, a drug traf-
ficker can have his or her prison
term drastically reduced through
the award of credits, known as
time and gain time. A drug
iffi ker can become eligible for
after having served only an
of the original sentence.

Governor Martin said he will
propose legislation that abolishes
parole and good and gain time
credits for convicted drug traf-
fickers. "Drug traffickers should
know that if they are convicted in
North Carolina they will serve
even- day of the sentence im-
posed by the courts Governor
Martin said.
The Governor is also proposing
an amendment to the current
Continuing Criminal Enterprise
Statutue to provide that drug
kingpins convicted of drug traf-
ficking under that law shall re-
ceive a mandatory likfe sentence
without benefit of parole or good
and gain time credits.
Governor Martin will ask the

which allows a district attorney to
convene a special investigative
grand jury for the purpose of
probing drug trafficking. Al-
though this law was adopted by
the General Assembly two years
igo, it is set to expire on October 1,
1988.
The Governor is also urging
legislative action on two propos-
als pending before the General
Assembly. 1 le is urging action on
H.B. 755, introduced by Repre-
sentative Charles L. Cromer (K-
Davidson), which designates
drug trafficking as one of the
iggravating circumstances that
can be considered in the imposi-
tion of the death penalty in first
degree murder cases.
The bill has passed the I louse
and is pending before the Senate.
Governor Martin in also support-
ing passage of S.B. 213, a measure
recommended by the Governor's
Crime Commission and intro-
duced by Senator Harold Har-
dison (D-Lenoir) that would
make it a felony to possess any
amount of cocaine.
This legislation is needed be-
cause of growing use of crack, a
deadly concentrated form of co-
caine which is oftne trafficked in
small amounts. Amendments
have weakened the bill and the
Governor is urging that it be re-
turned to its original strength and
adopted.
Governor Martin says he sup-
ports these proposals in an effort
to make the state's drug traffick-
ing laws as tough in practice as
they are on paper. "These are
tough laws which, if consistently
applied and effectively enforced,
would, I believe, be a major deter-
rent to drug trafficking in North

THE EAST CAROLINIAN

Facts, pros and cons of condoms use
HEALTH COLUMN BYSHERRI
I'm considering the condom as
a contraceptive choice?Can you
tell me more about it?
A condom is a kind of contra-
ceptive method made from either
thin rubber or treated animal skin
sheath. The condom is to prevent
the transmitting of semen from
one person to another. It is worn
by the male by placing it over the
erect penis. Some condoms come
with a reservoir or a nipple end
which allows semen to collect
there. If the condom does not have
this special tip, one-half inch of
space should be left at the end to
prevent rupture and leakage.
Specific instructions for apply-
ing and removing condoms can
be found in condom packages or
WILSON
from your health care provider. If
the condom breaks or leads, a
foam or jelly spermicide should
be inserted into the vagina imme-
diately.
Condoms, if used correctly, arc
97 effective. In actuality, be-
cause some users are careless or
use it improperly, the effective
rate is 75-85. If spermicidal
creams or foams are used with
condoms, the effectiveness is
greatly increased.
Availablity is the major advan-
tage to using the condom. There
are different qualities of condoms
available, and many drug stores
carry them. The ones found in gas
station rest rooms usually are not
the higher quality condoms. The
ECU Student Health Service pro-
vides quality condoms at a lower
cost and men or women may
purchase them.
Another advantage of using
condoms is that it allows males to
take part in the responsibilty of
providing a contraceptive
method. The final advantage is
one that had been given much
attention recently. This is that
condoms may help in the preven-
tion of sexually transmitted dis-
eases such as gonorrhea, ch-
lamydia, syphilis, genital warts,
hepatitis, and other STD's. It has
been proven in a laboratory test-
tube that the spermicide Non-
oxynol-9 kills the AIDS virus,
there are some disadvantages
to using condoms. First, some
people feel it interrupts foreplay
to apply the condom immediately
before intercourse; although
other people feel it could be fun
and add to the foreplay. Second,
heat deteriorates rubber, so con-
doms should not be stored where
heat could destroy them, like
wallets or cars. Third, on rare
occasions, there may be an aller-
gic reaction to rubber condoms or
the lubrication in some condoms.
Some lubrications will deterio-
rate the rubber, such as Vaseline.
For this reason, lubricants should
notbe used unless it is known that
it will not harm the condom. A
common complaint is that con-
doms reduce the sensation during
intercourse, but now there are
many types that cause very little
loss of sensitivity.
As a contraceptive method,
condoms are effective, and their
effectiveness can be increased by
spermicides. The most important
thing to keep in mind, is that absti-
nence is the best contraceptive
method at 100 effectiveness.
Abstinence is also the best pre-
vention against STD's, but if you
plan on engaging in sexual inter-
course, using condoms may be
the best prevention method we
have against STD's. Overall, the
advantages gTeatly outweigh the
disadvantages. Therefore, con-
doms should be used during in
tercourse even if other forms of
contraceptive methods are being
used at the same time.
Memorial honors hostage held abroad

UI allows firearms on campus
MOSCOW, IDAHO (CPS) ?
University of Idaho students ha vc
won the right to keep firearms on
campus.
They will, however, have to
store them in special lockers.
UI officials decided in late April
to reject a Safety Office proposal
to ban guns from campus dorms,
and voted instead to build a spe-
cial school storage shed for weap-
ons.
"We want to preserve the op-
portunities for hunters to go hunt-
ing and at the same time we're
trying to greatly reduce the risk
that is present with our unregu-
lated system said Dean of Stu-
dents Services Bruce Pitman.
Idaho was one of the few cam-
puses ? if not the only one ? in
the U.S. to allow students to have
guns. In 1982, for example, Ten-
nessee legislators made posses-
sion of a gun or hunting knife on
campus a felony.
"The overwhelming majority of
universities in the United States
and Canada have a policy against
allowing students to store fire-
arms in their rooms said Dan
Keller, the director of public
safety at te University of Louis-
ville, who trains college law en-
forcement officers.
Even letting campus police
carry guns has been controversial
at some schools, though on April 1
Michigan State University police
switched to mew semi-automatic
handguns "to better protect stu-
der ts as well as themselves
safety chief Bruce Benson ex-
plained.
At Idaho, however, the issue
dealt with whether or not stu-
dents could join hunting season.
Pitman saw the storage area as a
compromise.
The area, he said, will operate
much like a safety deposit box.
"We'll provide a security system
for the first 2 or 3 levels of entry
into the area. And the final area
will be a locker in which the stu-
dents can use their own lock

(NEW BERN) ? "North Caro-
lina cannot afford to stand still on
the issues of concern to Senior
Citizens. In 1970 8 of our citi-
zens were 65 and older.
By 1992, just four years from
now, 13 of our population will
be over 65. "We have an obliga-
tion to see that our senior citizens
can live at home as long as pos-
sible ? and that they can live in
dignity and in safety Lieutenant
Governor Bob Jordan said Friday
during the Founder's Day Cele-
bration of United Tri-County
Senior Citizens Inc.
The Lieutenant Governor
stated, "We must work to guaran-
tee that our senior citizens are not
institutionalized simply because
there is a lack of home-based care
in their community
Jordan called for a $5.6 million
program recommended by the
Study Commission on Aging to
be presented during the 1988
General Assembly Session. The
plan includes:
$720,000 for In-home health
services,
$2,000,000 for Transportation
assistance,
$720,000 for Senior Centers,
$1,000,000 for Family Car-
egivers and,
$600,000 for Information and
Referral Services,
In addition to State support,
Jordan pointed out the need for
strong community efforts. "It is
important that every community
in North Carolina develop a lead
agency to co-ordinate services for
the elderly. Likewise, we must
decide on a basic level of services
which will be available to seniors
across the state?regardless of
size, location or economic base of
the community.

Crackin' down
Martin is proposing stronger
drug laws for North Carolina
The first week in May, Governor
Martin announced a package of leg-
islative proposals that would en-
force the sentences imposed on
drug traffickers. Trafficking is de-
fined as the willful possession, with
the intent to sell or distribute, in any
way, to another person. Under these
strict proposals, offenders will not
be eligible for parole; there will be
no credit gained for good behavior.
So where do students fit in here?
It's a known fact that our state is
cracking down on drug misuse. It's
a known fact that high school and
college students contribute largely
to the user population. Many
people have seen their friends go to
court on various drug charges: pos-
session of a drug substance and
possession with intent to sell being
the primary ones. Many times have
we seen these people released on
probation, fined, sent to drug reha-
bilitation centers and some even
jailed.
But now things are changing.
Some may say, oh man, how many
years can .5 grams get a person?
Well, under Martin's proposals,
you'll get the same amount of time,
but there will be no reprieves, no
suspended sentences and no proba-
tion. These charges will be even
more severe and carry a stronger,
more effective penalty. With the
maximum sentence on drug-related
charges ranging from 5 years for
one ounce of cocaine, to a maximum
of 40 years for one pound of cocaine,
a student's college career could be
ruined if he is made to sit in prison
full-term. It's hard simply getting
started with a drug-related past,
especially with some of today's
employer's policies. Imagine trying
to live down a record that shows you
spent years in prison for possessing
or trafficking drugs.
Many will agree that drugs are not
worth the risk. But how many ECU
students, future ECU students or
past ECU students felt is and was
worth the risk? How many pos-
sessed, sold and trafficked drugs
and got away with it? How many
will possess, sell, traffick and get
caught? Is it worth the risk? How
many people will throw away a fu-
ture behind a nice polished desk,
income of forty or fifty thousand
dollars because they got caught up
in the drug scene? Those of you traf-
ficking now, while attending col-
lege, how much money and time
will be wasted if you're caught?
On an even more serious note,
drug kingpins convicted of traffick-
ing, under Martin's new proposals,
will get a mandatory life sentence?
without benefit of parole, ever.
These proposals are being viewed
and accepted by many. Even if some
proposed amendments weaken the
main drug proposals, they can and
will still be detrimental to students
who unwisely gamble in the drug
business.
As part of the responsiblity that
befall students and adults we must
make sure our futures are secure.
Drug involvement in any form takes
away that security. Granted, drug
dealing will be around until the end
of time, but you don't have to be a
part of it.
Reagan1fs drug policy is clear
By FRED BARNES
THE NEW REPUBLIC
President Reagan's line on the war
against drugs is loud and clear. We're
winning. In his State of the Union ad-
dress on Jan. 25, he heralded "an untold
American success story the decline of
cocaine and marijuana use by teenagers.
At the White House Conference for a
Drug Free America on Feb. 29, he saidI
believe the tide of the battle has turned,
a nd we're beginning to win the crusade
for a drug-free America And when he
spoke to the American Society of News-
pa per Editors on April 13, he tacked on
a paragraph about "signs of progress"
in the drug war. "We've stopped
America's free fall into the drug pit he
said. "We're getting our footing to
climb out
Reagan may believe his own cheer-
leading, but practically nobody in his
administration does. This was painfully
evident on April 22 at the White House
meeting of the National Drug Policy
Board. Presentation after presentation
stressed the shortcomings in the
administration's sffort. "I don't know
how I can honestly be very optimistic
about the war on drugs said Health
and Human Services Secretary Otis
Bowen. Education Secretary William
Bennett said, "We're not perceived as
winning this war Francis Keating, an
assistant treasury, likened the drive to
interdict drugs at the border to "build-
ing a 25-foot wall and facing 30-foot
tides
When the presentations stopped,
Reagan ordered a 30-day review by the
drug policy board of the
administration's drug-fighting capabil-
ity. Marlin Fitzwater, the White House
spokesman, announced that the board
will recommend ways "for increasing
the federal effort against drug suppliers
and users
Don't get your hopes up. The
review's emphasis, White House aides
said, will be on more of the same-more
massive drug testing, more drug treat-
ment centers, more talk about "zero
tolerance" of illegal drugs. What won't
hapen is an invigorated attack on drugs.
The administration is too divided for
that.
The drug debate inside the admini-
stration is three-sided. The dominant
faction, led by Attorney General Edwin
Meese, wants to get tough with drug
users. Two days before the meeting at
the White House, he told a gathering of
mayors that drug testing should be
required of all American workers, not
just federal employees. The goal, he
said, is "zero tolerance of drugs in any
place, anytime Allied with Meese is
Ian McDonald, the director of the Drug
Abuse Policy Office at the White House.
McDonald followed Bowen at the meet-
ing with Reagan and praised a state
program suspending the driver's li-
cense of anyone caught with drugs and
another requiring jail sentences for us-
ers.
The leftist faction, led by Bowen,
stresses education and rehabilitation.
"Consistent non-use messages must be
driven home by the family, the church,
the workplace, schools, governors, local
officials Bowen said at the meeting.
"As for treatment, we need more re-
search to improve the efficacy and effi-
ciency of treatment strategiesAnd we
need to get both the public and private
sectors involved
The rightist faction, led by Bennett, is
wary of more treatment centers. As
usual, Bennett is allied with Gary Bauer,
the White House domestic adviser, and
William von Rabb, the commisioner of
customs. They point to a recent analysis
of treatment programs in Washington
which foundd that a third or less of
heroin, PCP and cocaine users com-
pleted treatment, and that of those who
did a majority were back on drugs
within a year.
Bennett's chief aim is to get the mili-
tary more involved. He has sent memos
to Meese on this subject ("the military
should do to the drug barons what our
forces in the Persian Gulf did to Iran's
navy"), dispatched aides to the Penta-
gon and lobbied Pentagon officials.
He's gotten nowhere. Daniel Howard,
the Pentagon spokesman, says the mili-
tary is doing plenty and is restricted by
law from doing much more. Defence
Secretary Frank Carlucci says he's
"against giving the military arrest au-
thority or getting them into law enforce
ment
At a March session of the drug policy
board, Bennett clashed with William
Taft fV, the deputy defence secret a rv.
Bennett said the Pentagon should de-
ploy 15 to 20 more helicopters to attack
drug factories ou tsidc the Uni ted Sta Us.
as was done in Bolivia in 1986. Taft said
that would be too costly. He also said
the use of American helicopters would
only stir anti-Americanism. "Then put
Daniel Ortega's picture on the side oi
them Bennett shot back.
White House aides concede the ad-
ministration may be in for a hard time
this fall. Democrates, especially Jesse
Jackson, are trying to make "the drug
issue the foreign policy issue of 1988 as
one aide put it. Jackson calls for a drug
czar to coordinate all the agencies in the
drug war, more money for the Coast
Guard and possible use of the military.
Micheal Dukakis says roughlv the
same, and he sounds both nationalistic
and assertive.
The White House doesn't. Reagan
opposes a drug czar on the ground that
it would necessitate more "big govern-
ment (The Bennett faction wants one.
But even surveys conducted for the
White House by pollster Richard Wirth-
lin in February found the public wants a
large federal role in fighting drugs.
Asked who should do the most to fight
drug use, 55 percent said the federal
government. The poll also found that
while Reagan's standing in the drug
fight remains high-nearly two-thirds
favorable-about the same percentage
think the drug problem is getting worse.
That means the topic oi drugs is
bound to be a political problem for
Bush. He needs a drug program, and, as
luck would have it, his aides are consid-
ering one to restucturc the
administration's entire anti-drug effort.
In addition, he likes the idea of an inter-
national military force, including U.S.
forces, to interdict drugs. A drug czar
"We may be for it a Bush adviser says.
"It can't hurt It can't hurt Bush in the
campaign, at any rate.

Nicaragua's economy nine years after war
In July 1979, folowing a bloddy struggle, the
people of the small Central American nation of
Nicaragua (current population approximately 3.5
million) succeeded in toppling the U.Sbacked,
fight-wing Somoza dynasty, which had subjected
the country to a brutal, corrupt military dictatorship
for forty-five years. Nicaraguans were led in this
st niggle by the Sandinista Front for National Libera-
tion (FSLN), an organization which was founded in
1961 but only became capable of mobilizing massive
popular support in the late 1970s.
Today, nine years after the Somoza dynasty's
ouser, Nicaragua is a land marked by a number of
striking features. It is a poor country, even by
Central American standards, with and antiquated
economy, minimall industrial infractructure, and a
capitall city still in ruins from the 1972 earthquake. It
is a young country, with half the population under
flic age of fi fteen and a high birth rate. It is a devoutly
Catholic country, whose Church is sharply divided
between a conservative hierarchy, which is vocally
critical of the changes underway in Nicaragua, and
a grassroots movement that subscribers to the tenets
of liberation theology and supporters the Revolu-
tion as a vehicle for realizing a Biblically mandated
'option for the poor
The Nicaraguan economic picture is every bit as
complex as the nation itself. The country's economy
cannot be neatly categorized as either capitalist or
socialist. Like political pluralism, a mixed economy
is formally guaranteed in the new constitution, and
that pledge has so far been respected in practice. The
government is simply too pragmatic to saddle itself
with responsibility for administering a larger share
of the economy, since it is painfully aware that it is
barely up to supervising the portion already under
its jurisdiction. Besides the state's firm hold on a few
strategic points of the economy?most notably
banking and foreign trade, both of which have been
completely nationalized?it has a degree of influ-
ence disproportionate to its percentage of owner-
ship, enabling it to steer the economy in the general
desired direction without directly controlling every
aspect of it.
In turn, Nicaragua is currently plunged in a se-
vere economic crisis characterized by periodic short-
ages of many basic goods, skyrocketing inflation
(over 2000 last year, the highest rate in Latin
America), and acute scarcity of foreign exchange,
and a bulging trade deficit and foreign debt. This
crisis has several causes. The most immediate, and
serious one is the U.Sbacked contra war, which has
cost Nicaragua millionsofdollars in direct economic
damage, lo?t production, and foregone investment.
It has forced the goverment to shift scarce resources
from programsss promoting economic growth to the
war effort. The U.S. trade embargo and the credit
boycott the Reagan Administration has orchestrated
In the multilateral lending agencies has com-
pounded the war's impact by drastically curtailing
Nicaragua's access to foreign exchange and spare
parts.
This is not to say that U.S. policy is the sole source
of the economic crunch. Governmental mismanage-
ment has also contributed to the present mess. There
is no question that the government has been guilty of
its share of major policy blunders. The most obvious
and costly one was its overemphasis on the state
agricultural sector in the early years of the REvolu-
tion, which had the effect of depriving campesinos
(peasants) of an incentive to work, resulting in a
sharp drop in productivity. The Sardinnistas have
since recognized and redressed this mistake, even
going so far as to breaklc up a number of large state
farms into smaller plots, which are then turned over
to landless agricultural laborers.
There is another factor at work behind
Nicaragua's current economic woes, a deeper-
rooted, structural one that will be harder to deal with
then either Sandinista mismanagement or the war.
Like many Third World nations, Nicaragua's ex-
ports are mainly primary, agricultural products
(coffee, cotton, sugar, beef, etc.), and it has to import
manufactured goods, industrial parts, and oil. As a
result, the country has fallen victim to a phenome-
non known as the 'declining terms of trade its
export earnings gradually fall while the cost of its
essential imports steadily rises, producing an ever
wider trade deficit. This year Nicaragua's exports
are expected to net about 250 million dollars while its
imports are projected to cost close to 800 million.
Nicaragua is not the only nation to experience this
trend, many Third World and, in particular. Central
American countries, suffer from the same affliction.
None of Nicaragua's neighbors are much better off
economically, despite often massive infusions of
economic aid from the U.S. This structural economic
problem iscompounded by the fact that, because the
exact course and denouement of the revolutionary
process remain in doubt, Nicaraguan entrepreneurs
feel deeply uncertain about their future pro-
spectsssssss, and therfore are hesitant to invest The
result is that the economy suffers from a critical
shortage of private investment, which public funds
can only partially offset.
Even with peace and the most competent econo-
mists imaginable at the helm, Nicaragua would be
undergoing severe economic troubles. It has essen-
tially been dealt a losing hand in the international
economic system, and it's going to take the govern-
ment a long time to restructure the economy suffi-
ciently to alter this fact. But no significant improve-
ment in the economic situation is possible until the
war ends.

a losing hand in the international

to restructure the economy suffi-
us fact. But no significant improve-
foomic situation is possible until the
AIDS anxiety strikes in northern college
(CPS) ? In what could be the
first on many college AIDS panics
to come, the approach of a mid-
April blood drive scared a good
portion of the Clarion University
of Pennsylvania community into
worrying that AIDS (acquired
immune deficiency syndrome)
was loose on campus.
"This is absolutely rumor, with
no truth to it Patricia Bledsoe of
the campus Red Cross chapter
told The Clarion Call, the student
paper.
Bledsoe was reacting to a rumor
that a January campus blood
drive had turned up 15 people
who had AIDS, an invariably fatal
virus that destroys victims' im-
mune systems.
AIDS can be spread through
sexual contact and the sharing of
intravenous needles with infected
people. In 1985, blood banks dis-
covered some of their supplies
were infected with the AIDS vi-
rus. They now routinely test sup-
plies for the virus before using
them.
Blood bandks also routinely
"defer" donations given by
people with colds, who are using
some kind of medication or, per-
haps, have the flu.
Bledsoe guessed the blood bank
may have "deferred" several such
flu cases in January, and that the
action subsequently was attrib-
uted to AIDS.
But a new federal program,
which will anonymously test
some 30,000 collegians for AIDS
nationwide during the 1988-89
school year, suggests the Clarion
scare won't be the last.
The Centers for Disease Control
(CDC) in Atlanta said in April it
would anonymously test student
blood samples for the AIDS virus
at 30 campuses across the coun-
try.
In the program, students won't
know when some of the blood
they've given ? either as a dona-
tion or as part of a physical exam
at their campus clinics ? is sent to
theCDCforAIDStsting,orevenif
their campus is one of the 30
schools the CDC is trolling for
blood.
They also won't know the test's
results, Dr. Margaret Bridwcll
said in announcing the program
in early April.
The program's purpose, Brid-
well explained, was to find out
how widespread the virus is an
American campuses, and help
discover if it has infected signifi-
cant numbers of women and
heterosexual males.
"There are no grounds for anxi-
ety counseled Miguel Garcia-
Tunon of the Ameriacan College
Health Association when asked if
the secrecy of the program might
not provide fertile grist for ru-
mors and fears,
?n-save ?????????
Racial tensions bring reform, unrest to
universities around the nation
(CPS)? The anti-racism pro-
tests that have closed up build-
ings, attracted police, provoked
suspensions and sit-ins and gener-
ally rocked dozens of campuses in
recent months are, in fact, forcing
changes at American colleges, ac-
tivists and observers now say.
Scores of schools have adopted
tougher penalties for students
who engage in racist behavior.
Others have adopted more ag-
gressive programs to recruit more
minority students and faculty
members, and the efforts arc start-
ing to pay off.
The University of Georgia, for
example, on April 28 proudly
announced it had recruited 15 new
black faculty.
At the same time, a Brandcis
University poll of 13 peer schools
found minority stvidcnt applica-
tions for the fall, 1988, term were
more numerous than ever.
"Protests said Dr. Dolores A.
Austin of the University of Cali-
fornia at Santa Barbara, "havbe
placed these issues at the top of the
agenda instead of the bottom or
the middle
"The chages that have come
about said Barbara Ransby, a
grad student and anti- racism ac-
tivist at the University of Michi-
gan, "are a direct result of student
efforts
Ransby remains cautious,
however. "We tend to be skeptical
about broad public relations state-
ments by administrators
"Our focus is on results, not
promises
Protests against campus racism
have occurred at the universities
of Massachusetts, Vermont,
Michigan, California-Berkeley,
Iowa and at Dartmouth College,
Penn State, Hampshire College,
Williams College and scores of
other schools in recent months.
In response, many schools an-
nounced broad new programs to
solve racial problems.
Notre Dame, for one, estab-
lished a $12 million plan to in-
crease its undergraduate minority
population from 11 percent to 15
percent by 1992.
North Carolina State pledged to
hire more black faculty members
and expand its African-American
Studies curriculum. The U iversity
of Colorado began working with
its black students to further in-
crease black enrollment. The Uni-
versity of Nebraska appointed
al 1 -member commission to inves-
tigate the school's problems in
recruiting minorities.
While Ransby says those efforts
may gbe sincere, she calls them
"concessions" to minority de-
mands, not "independent innova-
tions
"It's understandable to be
skeptical said Meyer Weinberg,
a University of Massachusetts
education professor who has stud-
ied campus racism.
Ransby's University of'Michi-
gan, he-said, farled'J ta reach a
court-mandated goal of 5 percent
black enrollment last fall despite
repeated vows to do so. "The uni-
ECU Spanish institute
ECU has been selected as the
site for the first Governor's Lan-
guage Institute for Spanish
Teachers, one of three such insti-
tutions planned this summer to
promote second language educa-
tion in North Carolina.
The institutes are being con-
ducted to serve approximately 60
public and private school teach-
ers of French, German and Span-
ish from throughout the state. By
next year, the Governor's Lan-
guage Institute program hopes to
have four sites to accomadate
these languages and Latin.
Governor Martin feels that
"learning languages is increas-
ingly important to the economic,
political and social life of our
state "
Professor Manolita Buck of the
ECU Department of Foreign Lan-
guages and Literature will be di-
rector of the Spanish Institute at
ECU. The staff will include Dr.
Michael Schinasi and Mrs. Raquel
Manning of the ECU foreign lan-
guage department.
The institute will be open to
approximately 20 Spanish teach-
ers from grades six through 12.
The program consists of an inten-
sive four-week residential lan-
guage institute, using only the
language that they are studying,
to communicate.
Dates of the institute are June 27
through July 22. Governor Martin
is scheduled to attend the open-
ing session at 9 a.m. June 27 in the
foreign languages department in
the new general classroom build-
ing.
vcrsity hasn't paid off
When minority students occu-
pied a UMass building in Febru-
ary to call for stiffer penalties for
white students who attacked a
black student, Weinberg noted,
there was "a long history of com-
plaints to administrators left
unanswered
The sit-in, he said, forced the
adminstration to examine the
minority students' compaints
immediately, "It called the
public's attention to the history of
this relationship
Even relatively new insults
contiue to fester.
In mid-April, a group of Univer-
sity of Illinois fraternity members
traveled to the University of Wis-
consin, where they broke into an
Afro-American Studies class, and
threatened a black student and
professor.
Solomon Ashby of UW's Black
Student Union is still waiting for
administrators to respond. "Mi-
nority students are being attacked
from the outside he said. "We
have to fend for ourselves. The
university, in deliberateness of its
investigation, is passing out the
wrong message to students
"The process of university
decision making is too slow
Austin agreed.
The UMass protests, Weinberg
reported, have been "avery pow-
erful influence among .black stu-
dents. Their morale is very high
right now. They were able to pull
their protest off
Ransby concurred that "a very

I S lfjrtnient ol Health Human Service'
important aspect of the protests is
that the students involved are not
the rabble rousers the administra-
tion may protray them to be. It's
usually the most serious students
who are participating in demos-
trations. They are learning about
society, law and about how the
campus works
Such knowledge, she added,
will help them play a bigger role in
future civil rights efforts and
probably spark more campus anti-
racism efforts now.
"There's been some talk about a
growing student movement
Ransby said.
"I believe it's in its embroyonic
stages now. We can expect to see a
lot more of this
Many educators say they wel-
come the new sense of empower-
ment.
When minortiy students
charged a recent New Jersey De-
partment of Higher Education
conference on campus racial ten-
sions was little more than a public
relations move, state Chancellor T.
ties she's interviewed all plan to
stay in school?and tell other
minorities to attend UCSB?in
part because they feel the are forc-
ing some changes.
They are similarly heartened by
schools' willingness to respond to
them. "At least here, we are work-
ing on it she said. "Colleges are
doing a lot to convince minorities
that they know they are not per-
fect, but they want them on cam-
pus to help with the problem

Moscow summit to reap no power agreement
WASHINGTON (AP? "Busi-
ness as usual' may be the motto of
the Moscow summit between
President Reagan and Soviet
leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev, a
meeting expected to produce no
major agreements but many
smiles.
lTie two leaders will be smiling
not just for the television cameras,
but in recognition that they are
inching forward in serious nego-
tiation on many issues, in contrast
to the trans Atlantic shouting
matches that characterized the
early years of the Reagan admini-
stration.
Reagan's visit to Moscow, the
first bv an American president in
14 years, is not so much a victory
for the policies of cither power as a
"truimph of logic as both sides
realize they cannot afford to con-
tinue the current pace of military

Reagan and Gorbachev have

Washington last December when
they signed a treaty to eliminate

That treaty is being debated in the
Senate, and it still is not clear
whether it will be ratified before
the May 29-June 2 summit in
Moscow.

Hulk
By CHIPPY BONEHEAD
Features Editor
"Don't make me angry. You
wouldn't like me when I'm an-
gT-
That quote ranks right up there
with 'To the Batcave and "Up,
up and away The real reason
"Wonder Woman" got cancelled
is because she never had a boss
quote like those. (And speaking of
WW, isn't it about time she got her
reunion special?)
Anyway, the Incredible Hulk
had his TV movie Sunday night.
Bill (I Belong To The William
Shatner School of Acting) Bixby
and Lou (I Still Can't Handle
Those Speaking Roles) Ferrigno
reprised their roles as two halves
of the scientist turned misunder-
stood monster. Only this time he
(they?) brought a friend with him
(them?).
"The Incredible Hulk Returns"
was about 40 minutes of Hulk and
his alter ego, the almost Fred
MacMurray-like David Banner.
The other hour and 20 minutes
was devoted to The Mighty Thor
in hopes he and his puny secret
identity, Dr. Donald Blake, will
get spun-off into their own series.
Comic book fans will immedi-
ately realize that Thor didn't quite
translate into television as the
same Goldilocks that runs around
?the Marvel Comics? Universe,
shouting Shakespearean oaths
4ffl
and smiting super villains with
his hammer.
Eric Kramer plays the role for
laughs though. Even when he's
psuedo-serious, it's a laugh. But
Thor and Blake (played by Steve
Levitt - whose last role was that of
the nerd turned hunk in "Hunk
See a pattern forming?) get the
best lines in the show.
Thor quips that Blake summons
him to the worst places in the
world. Blake shoots back with,
"This isn't a date If Clark and
Superman had more of this dia-
logue, the last two "Superman"
movies might have made some
money.
Oh. But Clark and Supes are the
same person. In the comic, Thor
and Blake are the same person
(until recently but that situation
defies explanation by even the
people who write the damn
comic). On TV, Blake "channels"
the "spirit of Thor" onto this
plane.
Banner supplies the audience
with the Webster's Third defini-
tion of "channeling so everyone
will understand this little plot
device. Channeling is giving a
spirit a physical form throught the
use of a medium.
Wei the medium in the case is
Blake and Thor's hammer. But
Blake also has to yell "Odin very
loudly through a reverberator.
This, unfortunately, makes the
whole process sound just a leetle
bit too much like He-Man and his
bloody "By the Power of
Greyskull speech.
In the comics, Thor's costume
has changed at least four times
over the last two years in an effort
to make him look more "like the
Thor of Earthly legend So no
wonder the TV folks just decided
to give him a whole new look.
But, Odin's beard! White fake-
fur shoulder pads? A 10 pound
belt buckle with a "T" engraved
on it? The wings on the helmet
were too low and flat, and he had
no cape. Not even close to the
Thor of ANY legend.
As for Hulk (recently turned
grey-skinned in the comic ? do
these producers even READ the
comics they are adapting?), he
was pretty much the same. No
talking, lots of growling and pos-
ing and more ripped clothes than
Stallone.
Bixby is pretty much the es-
sence of Bruce ? I mean DAVID
Banner. No personality, and he
has the ability to look like he's
really in pain when he changes
into Lou Ferrigno.
The plot was pretty much the
same one they used in about half
the original "Hulk" shows - in-
vention andor girl kidnapped by
bad guys. Banner gets involved,
turns into Hulk, saves the day and
walks off into the sunset to some
of the most depressing back-
ground music I've ever heard.
I've never understood why they
didn't throw some super villains
into these shows. Obviously, a
green, two-ton, steroid freak is
going to clobber any amount of
merely mortal thugs you can
throw at him. A super villain
would at least be a challenge.
Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. It
was about as ambitious as any
other reunion special I've seen.
Only Thor might actually have a
chance at a series of his own, un-
like the Austin kid from the "Six
Million Dollar ManBionic
Woman" special last summer.
What they should have done
though, if they're going to team
up heroes, is bring back Spider-
Man and Captain America. They
could form a group. I feel sure
Nicholas Hammond and Reb
Brown haven't worked since '81
or '82.
But what I really want to see is
the return of Linda Carter as
Wonder Woman. I doubt Debra
Winger would want to be Wonder
Girl again, but Chloris Leachman
must need some work, so WW
could at least see her mom on
Paradise Island.
But until that happy day, wo
can only hope for a Thor weekly
or quarterly series. So, for now, I'll
write off into the sunset with Dr.
Banner. (Haunting theme music,

Student Union has big plans for summer fun
BY CHIPPY BONEHEAD
Feature Editor
In the past, ECU's Student
Union has presented such diverse
entertainments as Heart, Jimmy
Buffett, Nikki Giovanni, Barefoot
on the Mall and trips to New York
and Hawaii. This summer. Stu-
dent Union president Karen
Pasch promises, will be continue
to be action packed.
Pasch says the Union members
are "very excited about the events
we are offering to the ECU family
this summer Among the regular
events scheduled are the Rock-A-
Bowls.
A deejay will be present in the
Mendenhall Bowling Center from
2-430 p.m. every Thursday. Re-
quests will be taken, so you can
listen to your favorite tunes as you
rack up the scores.
Coming up on June 7, the sec-
ond Bingo Ice cream party will
be held in the Mendenhall Multi-
purpose room. Prizes will be
awarded during the function.
Free movies and concerts are
also on the agenda. Movies to be
shown this summer include the
hip vampire flickThe Lost
Boys and the Michael J. Fox
smash, "The Secret of My Suc-
cess
For those with a taste for the
macabre, Stephen King's "The
Shining" and the thriller "The
Jagged Edge" will be shown.
Another regular feature will be
the four Watermelon Feasts.
Admission is free, and the event
will be highlighted by a seed spit-
tin' contest. And of course, there
will be plenty of watermelons.
The Student Union will also
host three free concerts. Pasch
says that everyone can "go out on
the mall and jam with each other
On June 16, local band Bad Bob
and the Rockin' Horses will ride
into some rock and roll.
June 30 will showcase The
Upper Level and July 7 will host
another local band , the reggae
masters The Amateurs. All three
concerts begin at 9 p.m.
Pasch urges all students who
wish to get involved with the
Student Union should come by
their office (Mendenhall 234) and
find out how to get on one of their
many committees. If not, just sit
back and enjoy the entertainment
they've planned for you.
It was previewed as far back as
last Christmas, and this weekend,
George Lucas's "Willow" opened
up at the box office to anxious
crowds.
Part of the selling of this movie
is the fact that it is written and
produced by Lucas, who gave us
"Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones
Lucas borrows much from his
past films for "Willow and from
Tolkein's "Lord of the Rings
Some of the big film reviewers
such as Siskel and Ebert were
bothered by the common fantasy
elements evident in the movie;
brownies, trolls, dwarves
(Elwins, in this) etc but that is not
a fair critique for fantasy. Would
you take the guns, horses, and
Indians out of a traditional cow-
boy movie? Perhaps thay wanted
some aliens and cute droids in the
film.
Actually, the movie uses classic
epic fantasy traditions in the tell-
ing of the story. The hero, Willow
himself, is swept into the adven-
ture unwillingly, in epic form.
This all begins when he and his
small Elwin family find a baby
floating down the river in Mases
fashoin. The red-haired waif,
who becomes popular for her fa-
cial expressions throughout the
movie, is Princess Elora, the child
destined by prophecy to one day
defeat the evil sorceress
Bavmorda (who bears a striking
resemblance to the wicked step-
mother in Snow White).
Willow is chosen to lead the
baby to her destiny, and along the
way meets up with the most color-
ful character in the movie, Mad-
martigan, played by Val Kilmer.
Kilmer's character owes a Tot to
Harrison Ford's Han Solo, but
Madmartigan is a much more
developed character than Solo.
The same can't be said of his love
interest Sorsha, and their rela tion-
ship is a bit "pushed" by the
writer.
An interesting theme Lucas
uses is that of making females
very critical to the storyline, an
idea often ignored in most films of
this sort. The two most powerful
magic users in the movie are
women, and the catalyst of the
entire plot is the baby girl, Elora
Danan. This is a refreshing
handle on a storyline that would
be normally dominated by
"manly" heroes.
A lot of this film's success can be
attributed by the direction of Ron
Howard. Howard uses a very
subtle hand in the direction, let-
ting the story unfold at a natural
pace, playing off the beauty of the
sets and mattes used to create the
world of Willow.
The movie effectively draws in
the viewer to sympathize with the
main characters, and even the
amusing sidebars like the Brown-
ies (who have an daccent some-
where between a leprechaun nad
an old man) and the good sorcer-
ess Razelle, who Willow keeps
transforming into different ani-
mals.
BacX to lhc argument that Wil-
lowborrows too much from J .R.R.
Tolkein and the like. Okay, so
Bavmorda's men are a lot like the
Ringwraiths of Tolkein. Maybe
Willow himself is much like
Frodo the Hobbit. And perhaps
the skull-faced "Phantom" owes
his existence to the Horned King
from the Lloyd Alexander tales.
Well, that is a trademark of clas-
sic hero storytelling. There is no
original story, these are all myths
and legends retold. The key is in
the way they are told.
Most of the elements in "Wil-
low" can be found back in stories
of the Norse, Celtic, and the Bible
Unfortunately these ancient sto-
rytellers didn't have the advan-
tage of Industrial Light and Magic
handling their special effects.
Like any good fantasy, "Wil-
low" creates a secondary world af
awe and wonder for the viewer,
and it doesn't have to get heavy-
handed to do so. Humor is used
consistently throughout, ana one
can enjoy the weli-chorco-
graphed fight scenes with Mad-
martigan. You won't cry (like

LOS ANGELES (AP)- In Octo-

GRAHAM ,N.C.(AP)?When
Fritz Klenner's extensive collec-
tion of tov guns went on the auc-
tion block, it attracted a lot of at-
tention from those who remem-
bered him as an outlaw killed in
an explosion while fleeing police.
There was a palm-sized silver
shooter with two bull heads en-
graved on the handle, a black
worn-leather Sgt. Friday holster
complete with a white Dragnet
emblem and six-shooter pistol, a
Johnny Ringo holster sporting a
painted-on white stagecoach and
holding a buckaroo gun.
There was a black bullet case
with two of its original three silver
slugs, paper ammunition for a
super paper buster gun and a
brown leather belt that can hold
12 toy bullets but only lOare still
there.
"Some kids are fascinated with

By CAROLYN JUSTICE
Sports Writer
ECU's men's track team makes
its 1 Oth consecutive appearance at
the NCAA Division I Track and
Field Championships, as it travels
to Eugene, Ore June 1-4 to
compete.
Competing for the Pirates will
be Ail-American Lee McNeill in
the 100-meter dash, Eugene
McNeill in the 200-meter dash
and ECU's 400-meter relay team.
Lee McNeill, who has yet to win
at the NCAA's, qualified for this
year's event as he ran a 10.26 in the
100 meters at this year's North
Carolina Collegiate Track and
Field Championships, held in
Raleigh during April.
The qualifying time for the
NCAA's is 10.29, while McNeill's
fastest time this year was the
10.26.
Dennis Mitchell of Florida has
run the fastest qualifying time for
the NCAA's with a 10.10 race.
McNeill, who did not qualify
for the finals in last year's
competition in Louisiana, holds
the ECU record in the 100 meters
with a 10.11.
"Lee can have his best finish
ever at the NCAA's this year
says ECU track coach Bill Carson.
"I think he can finish fifth or even
higher, but in the 100 meters you
can never predict what will
happen
Eugene McNeill finished
seventh at the NCAA's
Championships last June in the
200 meters, running the race in
20.45 seconds.
This spring McNeill was
hampered by injuries that almost
stood in the way of his qualifying
for the event this time around.
"The competition in the 200
meters at the NCAA's is going to
be awesome this year says
Carson. "There are some
tremendously fast runners and
there will be five guys out in front
and then the rest will just group
together
McNeill qualified for the
NCAA's, running a 2051 in the
200 meters as well as qualifying
for the 1C4A Championships,
which were held at Yale
University May 19-22. He came
away with a first-place finish in
the 100 meters and a second-place
finish in the 200 meters.
Lee McNeill was expected to
take first in the 100 meters but he
was disqualified after a false start
and brother Eugene went on to
take the win.
Both McNeills will compete as
members of the 400-meter relay
team along with Junior Robinson
and Ike Robinson at the NCAA's.
The relay team qualified for the
competition this year when they
traveled to Jamaica and competed
with last year's top 10 relay teams.
ECU finished fourth with a
clocking of 3959 seconds behind
the running of the McNeill's,
Junior Robinson and Kelvin
Wrighton.
At last year's NCAA's, the relay
team finished fourth in 39.15
seconds, with Texas Christian of
the Southwest Conference,
taking first place with a time of
38.82.
Another Southwest Conference
team is at the top of the list this
year as the relay squad from Texas
A&M has recorded the season's
fastest qualifying time with a
clocking of 38.83.
The Pirate relay team geared up
for the stiff NCAA competition
with a first-place finish at the
IC4A events.
The Pirates qualified for the
finals at the competition as they
won their preliminary heat with a
time of 39.86, a new Clinton-
Frank Stadium record.
Wrighton, a junior from
Edenton and a member of last
year's relay team, pulled a muscle
during the preliminary race and
was replaced by Ike Robinson for
the finals.
The relay team went on to win
the finals with a time of 40.25.
"We beat a lot of really good
teams at the IC4A's and the
competition and the win will be
good for us at the NCAA's said
Carson. "We're going to change
the order in the relay so that
everyone will be in position to do
their best for the team. We're
going to have a practice meet with
N.C. State, who also qualified for
the NCAA's, and that will give us
an idea of whether our new order
works
ECU finished sixth in the team
standings at the IC4A's, which
consisted of teams from the Big
East, Atlantic 10 and the Ivy
League.
James Madison and George
Mason, both of the Colonial
Athletic Association, also
finished in the top 10 in the team
standings.

ontst. oke victory in the $750,000
Colonial National Invitation
championship.
"It wasn't pretty he said of the
winning putt, "but fortunately
they don't have to be pretty to be
effective
The bold, brash Wadkins, 38,
fired a 5 under-par 65 in Sunday's
windswept finale to beat Ben
Crcnshaw, Mark Calcavecchia
and Joey Sindelar by a shot and
earn his second title of the year
and his 18th since joining the Tour
in 1971.
His 67-68-70-65-270 was 10
under par and worth $135,000.
The top prize hiked his 1988
winnings to $447,465 and his
career earnings to $3,538,546,
fourth behind Jack Nicklaus, Tom
Watson and Tom Kite.
"It's special to win here, and
winning in your backyard is
exciting said Wadkins, who
lives in nearby Dallas and spent
Friday and Saturday nights at
home after checking out of his
motel on Friday.
"Force of habit he quipped,
implying that he was so
accustomed to missing the cut
here that he routinely headed
home after two rounds.
In 11 previous encounters with
the challenging Colonial Country
Club course, Wadkins merely
flirted with a sub-par score, never
embraced one. He played 35
competitive rounds without
breaking par and finished no
higher than 24th.
"Hey, I nver disliked this
course he said after Sunday's
nationally televised cliffhanger.
"I love the course. I just didn't
play it good
In what several players
described as an incredible
afternoon of pressure golf under
nightmare conditions, Wadkins
overtook third-round leader
Clarence Rose with birdies on
three of the first four holes and
then gunned down Crenshaw,
Calcavecchia and Sindelar in the
stretch.
Calcavecchia closed with a 66,
Crenshaw with a 67 and Sindelar
with a 68. Rose was in the hunt
until a double bogey at the 18th
added a dismal end to a 74 that left
him three strokes behind the trio
in second place.
For Wadkins, it was a "miracle"
chip shot at the 17th green that
enabled him to save par and set
the stage for the 18th-hole heroics.
He confessed it was a shot he
couldn't hit again with a bucket of
balls.
"I had no green to work with
he said. "I was just trying to play a

The ball cleared a trap by inches
and rolled almost to the lip of the

said. "I told myself, 'Let's not

Pirates blown off by wind and Scott
PITTSBURGH (AP) ? The
Pittsburgh Pirates were nearly
blown off the field in the ninth
inning by swirling 50-mph wind
gusts that accompanied a sudden
thunderstorm.
But even the storm couldn't
compare to the way Houston
pitcher Mike Scott blew through
the Pi rates' lineup.
The unbeaten Scott, armed with
a n.arly unhittable split-finger
fastball, registered his sixth
consecutive victory with a four-

In the only other National
League game, Cincinnati beat St.
Louis 8-3. The Atlanta-Chicago
game was rained out.
The Pirates' big guns ? Andy
Van Slyke, Bonilla, Sid Bream and
R.J. Reynolds ? fired blanks all
night long and were a combined
l-for-10. Scott didn't allow a hit
until the fifth inning and his six-
game winning streak is the
longest of his career.
"The split-finger was the best
I've had all year said Scott, who
beat the Pirates for the second
time in a week. "I've been in a
pretty good groove all season,
really, from the end of spring
training. I haven't had a bad day
Scott was removed in the top of
the ninth for a pinch hitter but
received credit for a complete
game when the rains came before
the Pirates could bat in the ninth.
Scott was dressed and ready to
conduct interviews when he
found out the game had been
called after the umpires waited
one hour, 15 minutes.
"It's the first time I've ever
finished a game in my street
clothes he said.
Newspapers and hot dog
wrappers swirled out of the
stands and into the player's faces
and Jim Gott, Pittsburgh's 6-foot-
4,220-pound reliever, was nearly
blown off the mound several
times.
"There was a strange satanic
glow over the stadium Gott
said.
"I thought we were going to

Scott, who beat the Pirates 3-2 in
Houston last Tuesday night, got
the only run he needed in the fifth
on Kevin Bass' leadoff double and
Rafael Ramirez's RBI single off
John Smiley, 3-4.
The Astros, winning for the
sixth time in seven games, scored
a run in the seventh on Chuck
Jackson's sacrifice fly. Gerald
Young's single and reliever Barry
Jones' throwing error in the
eighth preceded Jim Pankovits's
sacrifice fly.
"If you're hitting, you don't

said. "But when the pitcher's

CHICAGO (AP) ? Russ Nixon

Nixon succeeded Chuck

Braves. Monday's game against
the Chicago Cubs was rained out

doubleheader today.
"I never liked doubleheaders
and I never liked rain delays
Nixon said. "At least we haven't
been scored upon yet
However, Nixon conceded the
rainout gave him a chance "to get
my thoughts together and time to
meet with and talk to some of the
players. It's something that's
needed but I would rather have
played, definitely
When Nixon does lead the
Braves, he will be in charge of a
team with a 12-27 record, the
worst in the National League.
"This isn't the first time I've
been in that situation said
Nixon, who took over Cincinnati
in July 1982 and managed them
through 1983 with the team
finishing last each year.
"I don't think anybody wants to
be in last place, but usually when
you take over a team it is in last
place or close to it Nixon said. "If
a club is going good, you don't
replace the manager unless there
is a complete breakdown in
communications
Unlike some situations where
the incoming manager says he is
taking the job with mixed
emotions and feeling empathy for
his predecessor, Nixon said he
was elated.
"I'm glad they made the
change, I'm happy, I'd be a fool if
I said I wasn't before being
called up to Atlanta by General
Manager Bobby Cox.
"The club is struggling said
Nison, "got a ways to go. We've
got some work to do
He does expect better results
than he produced when he was at
Cincinnati.
"I have a better grade of placrs
here than I had at Cincinnati
Nixon said. "The biggest name I
had there was (Mario) Soto and
we knew (Johnny) Bench was in
his last year
Nixon doesn't believe Atlanta's
poor record can be blamed on the
everyday position players.
"My primary concern is to get
the pitching staff going Nixon
said. "Zane Smith is a wquestion
mark and there are other question
marks. The younger guys are
having problems and that's a
primary concern
Zane Smith led the Braves with
a 15-10 record last season but is 2-
3 this year. He has a bone spur in
his left pitching elbow which will
be re-examined Tuesday.
Nixon, 53, was brought in from
Greenville, S.C, where he had
been managing the Braves' Class
AA farm club in the Southern
League.
Cox, who made the changes,
said "It was just a situation where
we had to make a move
Tanner, 58, had managed for 17
consecutive seasons in the major
leagues. He also managed the
Chicago White Sox, Oakland and
Pittsburgh. He led the Pirates to
the World Series championship in
1979.
"This is the first time I've ever
been fired in my life (in a season)
a stunned Tanner said, before
leaving for Atlanta Monday
morning. "We were improving.
We had a lot of young players on
this team
Tanner came to the Braves from
Pittsburgh in 1986 and was in the
third year of a five-year contract.
The Braves finished fifth in 1986
and last in 1987 with a 66-96
record.
Tanner's record at Atlanta was
153-208 and his overall record in
the major leagues was 1,352-
