The story goes much deeper than the statistics
By JOE HARRIS
Newa TJ nor
According to a graphic that
accompanied the article "UNCW
is coming of age at 19" in the
August 21, 1988 edition of the
WilmingtonStar,71 percentof the
ECL' faculty holds doctorate or
professuial degrees.
In the article ECU is compared
with six other schools in the UNC
system: Appalachian State, UNC-
Asheville, UNC-Wilmington,
L XC-Greensboro, UNC-Char-
lotte and UNC-Chapel Hill. Of
these six, ECU ranks at the bottom
with 71 percent of its faculty hold-
ing doctorate or professional de-
grees and UNC-Chapel Hill tops
the list with 87.7 percent.
What the article does not show
are the statistics for the other
schools in the UNC system: Fay-
etteville State, Elizabeth City,
N.C School of Art, N.C. Central,
N.C Agriculture and Technol-
ogy. Pembroke State, Western
Carolina and Winston Salem
State.
Hunter Kome, the author of the
article, was asked how he came to
pick 7 oi the fiften schools in the
UNC system. Kome said, "I
thought these 7 were the best or
most widely known schools in the
state. ECU was used because it is
the only other school in Eastern
North Carolina, besides UNCW,
that has any size
What the story does not reflect
are actual statistics concerning
ECU, or any other of the men-
tioned schools.
Of ECU's 954 professors, not
including associate professors,
assistant professors, instructors
or others, 89.6 percent hold a
rh.D. Seventy nine percent of
associates, 68 percent of assistants
and 16 percent of instructors have
earned a doctorate or first profes-
sional degree.
There are significant differ-
ences in the titles. An instructor is
usually hired on a short term ba-
sis, some may be working toward
a masters degree. An assistant is
hired in hopes of staying on and
trying to achieve tenure. The asso-
ciate is one who has been pro-
moted from assistant, and is
working toward the professor
title.
Chancellor Richard Eakin said,
"the statistics are somewhat mis-
leading. You have to look beyond
the numbers and look at the qual-
ity and contributions of our fac-
ulty. Whether they have a Ph.D. or
not, each member is making a
strong contribution to ECU. Actu-
ally, I think 71 percent of the fac-
ulty holding doctorates is some-
thing to boast about
Eakin went on to say many
faculty members in the theatre
arts, music and art departments
do not hold doctorates.
"These departments are
enormous and have many in-
structors. Lotsof the faculty in the
'fine arts' are renown dramatists,
actors, artists and musicians.
There isn't any need for these
people to pursue a doctorate. In
some cases there simply isn't any
further to go, as far as their educa-
tion is concerned.
"When you look in the business
school, English department and
science area, where having a doc-
torate is the standard, a high
number of these people hold
Th.D.s said Eakin.
One reason for the lower num-
ber of faculty with doctorates is
ECU's rapid growth
Eakin said, "we had to open up
36 new positions this year to ac-
commodate the students. It is
simply impossible to hire 36
people with doctorate degrees.
Dr. William Bloodworth, Vice
Chancellor for Academic Affairs,
said, "the hiring process is an
extremely long one. You have to
nationally advertise, interview
and screen the applicants. Even if
we want them, it doesn't mean
they'll take the job
"The percentage will increase
over time. People have to under-
stand this is a building process, it
just doesn't happen over night. I
feel once our enrollment becomes
more stable, we'll be able to hire
more people said Bloodworth.
The university hires few
people without doctorates or ap-

propriate degrees. The exception
comes in times of need, then, less
qualified applicants are hired on a
temporary basis. A common prac-
tice is to hire someone who is close
to receiving their doctorate de-
gree in hopes that they will stay on
after graduation.
Bloodworth said"it's all in
how you want look at the figures.
I think we've done an awfully
good job at hiring a qualified fac-
ulty. Our two priorities are to
always hire the best faculty pos-
sible and to encourage our pres-
ent faculty to keep doing a great
job

Tenants, renters need to know their rights
BvGREERBOWEN
S?j Writer
Each semester, many ECU stu-
dents move into apartments
oblivious to laws and rights that
benefit them as tenants.
A large number of these stu-
dents are taken advantage of be-
cause they are unaware of the
laws designed to protect them.
When first moving into an
apartment, students should read
the lease. Mac Hines, of Davison
and Hines Reality in Rocky-
Mount, N.C. said that if vou do
not understand the lease, get
Mmeone to interpret it for you.
The lease will explain all rules of
the landlord and should explain
the rights of the tenant.
Mr. Hines said to remember all
landlords are not realitors. He
also suggested talking to other
tenants before moving in. "Stu-
dents as well as all renters should
have renters insurance, said
Hines.
Vicky Hardv of State Farm In-
surance company said that renter
insurance is not very expensive.
The average renters insurance
policy costs $120 a year, which
comes to about $10a month. It will
provide coverage in the event of
theft, robbery, fire, water damage
and any number of unexpected
events.
Hardy said most realitors don't
have insurance to cover loses of
the tenant.
When deciding on the amount
of insurance, students should es-
timate the value of their belong-
ings. "If you figure that you have
X amount of jeans and X amount
of dollars, a T.V a sofa, bed, and
dresser, you'll soon find out your
stuff is worth a great deal more
than you ever would have imag-
ined, " said Hardy. She said that if
you purchased your furniture at a
yard sale, you should still esti-
mate their value, based on their
replacement costs.
Another area students know
very little about, are the laws
designed to protect them from
poor landlords. Leslie S. Robin-
son of James M. Roberts Law Firm
in Greenville said "these laws are
written so the average person can
read and understand their
rights
First, there are many laws a
landlord must comply with.
North Carolina general statute 42-
38 details these laws as well as the
renters reponsibility.
A landlord must make all re-
pairs necessary to keep the pre-
mesis in good living conditon.
The landlord must "maintain in
good, safe working order and
promptly repair all electrical,
plumbing, sanitary, heating, ven-
tilating, air conditioning, other fa-
cilities and appliances supplied
required " According to
N.C.G.S. 42-42, a landlord, once
notified in writing must repair
any broken appliances or facility
in the apartment.
Security deposits are to be
placed in a North Carolina bank
or a furnished bond. The landlord
must notify the renter of where
his security deposit is being held
within 30 days.
When moving out, a landlord
may use the deposit to pay for
damages, upaid bills or loss of
rent due to a broken lease. 30 days
after moving out, an itemized list
of any damages and the balance of
the security deposit is then mailed
to the former tenant.
The landlord may not withhold
as damages any part of the de-
posit for normal wear and tear on
the apartment. He may not with-
hold amounts that exceed actual
repair costs.
If a landlord fails to comply
with these laws, a tenant may take
them to court to receive the de-
posit damages and court costs.
Generally, students don't try to
press charges against their land-
lords. A good understanding of
the laws makes it easier to negoti-
ate with your landlords. Byknow-
ing your rights, it becomes much
harder for landlords to take ad-
vantage of renters.
Usually, a simple letter staring
that you know your rights, and
the laws, you can keep from being
taken advantage of.
If a tenant is to be evicted, the
landlord must hand deliver the
notice or mail it to the premesis. If
a tenant leaves any belonging in
an apartment such as furniture,
the sheriff must be there and all
belongings are to be placed in stor-
age. In order to get those belongings
back, the tenant must pay all back
rent and storage costs.
ECU adopts AIDS
prevention policy
By MICHAEL LEWIS
Staff Writer
"AIDS Prevention a dilemma
that health care providers have
been faced with for the past eight
years.
AIDS, is a disease that is trans-
mitted by intimate sexual contact
or exposure to infected blood.
Because of this, the ECU AIDS
Education Committee has put out
pamplets to faculty, staff and stu-
dents, about the prevention and
spread of AIDS.
The committee, has adopted
specific guidelines to control the
transmission of AIDS. The
committee asserts that students
who have AIDS should be al-
lowed regular classroom atten-
dance in an unrestrictive manner
as long as they are physically able
to attend classes. Also, university
personel with AIDS, do not pose a
known health risk to other stu-
dents or employees thus, policy
should reflect this data.
The purpose of the pamplet is to
educate students, staff and fac-
ulty about the virus (and treat
those who have or think they may
have the virus). The better in-
formed the public is about the
virus, the higher the rate of effec-
tiveness for the new policy.
A guideline of the new policy is
to conduct educational programs
for university personel and stu-
dents. These programs will pro-
vide information to employees
and staff who need to know pre-
ventive methods to the virus if
they should come in contact with
someone who is HIV positive.

Student Bank offers new services
Classes are in full swing, parties are meant for the weekend and the library is reserved for
wee knights, (ECU Photoiab).
By TAMMY AYCOCK
Staff Writar
In response to many requests,
the Student Bank (MSC) is offer-
ing a new service.
"This will allow ECU students
to pay their Greenville Utilities
bill while they are on campus, "
said Janice Craft, the bank man-
ager.
The only conditions of this
time-saving service are: bills must
be paid before their due dates and
people must bring both parts of
their statements.
'If they want to pay it on the
due date, they can't pay it here.
They (Greenville Utilities) will
not allow us to take them on or
after the due date. We have to take
them before the due date and they
have to bring both parts of the bill,
Craft said.
The Student Bank also accepts
payment for Carolina Telephone.
"We can take them no matter
when they are due. If they are late,
that's between them and the
phone company Craft said.
In additon to handling bills,
"We offer savings accounts to the
students. These are not interest
bearing accounts because we are
not a commercial bank. If s just a
safe place for students to keep
their money until they need it.
They don't have to maintain any
certain balance to have an ac-
count Craft said.
"Another advantage for the
students is that we don't charge
for withdrawal. The only charge
is if you lose your passbook, there
is a fifty-cent fee to replace it, "
Craft said.
The bank also provides check
cashing. They will cash checks up
to a maximum of $125 every seven
working days of the bank.
In order to cash a check, stu-
dents must present an ECU iden-
tification card and a current activ-
ity sticker. "We cash checks
whether they are in-state or out-
of-state. If there is a returned
check, we do have a ten dollar
fine, plus whatever their bank

Toxic shock syndrome; a lethal disease
WHAT IS TOXIC SHOCK AND
WHO CAN GET IT?
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a
rare disease believed to be caused
bv a bacterium c lied staphylo-
ooccus aureus. TS3 is a rare, but
serious disease which can some-
times be fatal. It is estimated that
6-17 of every 100,000 girls and
women who are menstruating
will get TSS each year. However,
TSS also occurs in non-menstruat-
ing women, men and children
Teenage girls and women under
thirty years oi age are reported to
be more likely to develop tam-

to the Federal Center of Disease
Control occurred in menstruating
women who were using tampons,
while the remaining 22 oc-
curred in children, men, and
women who were not menstruat-
ing.
What Are the Symptoms of TSS
Primary symptoms of TSS are
sudden, high fever (usually 102
degrees or more), vomiting, diar-
rhea, fainting, or near fainting
when standing, dizziness, or a
rash that looks like sunburn
Additional symptoms may in- remove your tampon at once and

The hurricane season is here
By SEAN HERRING
AssUUnt N'cwi Editor
No high temperature records
are expected to be set during the
weekend, because 1988 is begin-
ning to see its first signs of the
rainy hurricane season.
"This is not abnormal for this
time of year said meteorologist
Richard Jones of the National
Weather Service at the Raleigh-
Durham Airport.
No high temperature records
are expected to be set during the

ning to see its first signs of the
rainy hurricane season.
"This is not abnormal for this
time of year said meteorologist
Richard Jones of the National
Weather Service at the Raleigh-
Durham Airport.
"The weather will fluctuate like
this, from now through the rest of
the summer and the fall he said.
"Everyone might as well get
used to the unpredictability of the
weather. It might be hot and
sunny one minute and scattered
thunderstorms the next minute
Jones added.
hven though the temperature
has dipped into the 60's and 70's
for the past few days, these tem-
peratures are nowhere near a rec-
ord.
According to Jones, the record
low for this time of year has been
recorded in the 40 degree range.
"The lower temperatures have
probably not seemed much
cooler, because the humidity has
been so high he said.
There will be little change in the
weather outlook for the next sev-
eral days, but that more sections
of the state will have a chance for
the standard afternoon and eve-
ning thunderstorms.
Police searching for attackers want help
Campus Police are seeking in-
formation about an alleged as-
sault on a female that occurred on
Friday, August 26th at approxi-
mately 1 a.m. in the main lobby of
Clement Hall.
Although rumors of this inci-
dent have been spreading that a
female was raped, facts of the case
indicate that the victim experi-
enced unsolicited and unwanted
touching. There has not been a
rape reported.
The alleged assault did occur in
the main lobby area of Clement
Hall near the lobby phone. The
incident was interrupted by an
unidentified female who walked
in on the incident, at which time
the perpetrators stopped. The
victim ran upstairs to a student's
room and called Public Safety.
Officers arrived immediately; the
perpetrators had fled the area and
have not been located.
The perpetrators were de-
scribed as undetermined number
of black males with close cut hair
and one of them was wearing
white shorts.
Campus police urge female and
male students to use caution
when confronted by any group of
two or more male subjects who
Six perish when jetliner
???
plunges into sea
HONG KONG (AP) - A Chinese
jetliner skidded down a slipper)
runway, barreled into the sea and
broke apart today while landing
in heavy rain. Officials said six of
the 89 people on board were
killed.
All of the fatalities were among
the 11 Chinese crew members,
said Chen Zhengyou, a spokes-
man for Civil Aviation Admini-
stration of China, that nation's
flag-carrier.
A massive rescue operation at
Hong King's airport involving di-
vers, a flotilla of boats and five
helicopters began after Flight 301
plunged into Victoria Harbor at
9:19 a.m.
Small rubber rafts with rescue
personnel bobbed around the
partially submerged wreckage of
the British-made Trident jet,
which had arrived from Canton,
capital of China's Guangdong
province about 90 miles to the
northwest.
Fire engines crowded onto Kai
Tak Airport's solitary runway,
which juts into the harbor. Seven
hours after the crash, a 15-foot
crane began hauling the fuselage
from the water.
"It fell into the sea at the end of
the runway police spokesman
Tony Leung said of the CAAC
jetliner.
Fifteen of the 83 people pulled
from the wreckage required hos-
pitalization and were reported in
fair or satisfactory condition.
Government-run Radio Televi-
sion Hong Kong said at least three
of the dead were recovered from
the wreckage.
The radio interviewed one un-
identified passenger who said
some of the plane's safety belts
did not work.
"That's why when the plane
landed so hard, people simply

WARSAW, Poland (AP) - Lech
Walesa said he would attempt to
make up for the years Solidarity
was barred form dialogue in talks
with Communist authorities to-
day, eight years to the day the
government recognized solidar-
ity.
Authorities hoped the meeting
would help end Poland's most
serious labor unrest since they
crushed the free trade union
movement in a 1981 military
crackdown.
Tne enterprises across the coun-
try remained idled by strikers
demanding reinstatement of Soli-
darity and higher wages to offset
60 percent inflation.
Walesa planned to confer with
Interior Minister Gen. Czeslaw
Kiszczak; a senior representative
of the Roman Catholic Church;
and a member of a pro-reform
group backed by the government.
Government spokesman Jerzy
Urban said Stanislaw Ciosek, a
secretary of the official national
unity organization PRON, also
would take part.
Walesa went to church head-
quarters after arriving form
Gdansk.
"I'm like a cook preparing this
meal, but I can't tell yet if it is
going to be a good pie or a rotten
one said Andrzej Stelmachow-
ski, a senior mediator affiliated
with thechurch. Authorities com-
municate with the opposition
through the church, and Stelma-
chowski has played a key role.
The government demanded in
exchange for the talks - Walesa's
first with government officials
since 1982 - that Walesa end a
strike at the Lenin shipyard in
Gdansk.
When asked by reporters if he
would do this, Walesa replied'I
don't have the powers When
asked if that meant he would not
call off the strike, the Solidarity
chairman said, "I did not say so
Asked earlier wha he would
discuss with Kiszczak, Walesa
saidHow to make up for the past
seven years"
Accords signed at the Gdansk
shipyard on Aug. 31,1980 after a
nationwide strike wave made
Solidarity the only independent
labor federation ever recognized
in the Sovied bloc.
There was no government an-
nouncement of today's meeting,
but the communist party's ruling
Politburo issued a statement late
Tuesday saying it endorsed a
proposal by Kiszczak for "round-
table" discussions on strikers'
grievances.
The strikes began Aug. 16 in the
coal fields of Silesia, in southern
Poland, and spread to Solidarity's
traditional stronghold in the ports
and shipyards of the Baltic coast.
At their peak, they affected 20
businesses employing about
100,000 people.
A strike at the huge steel and
heavy machinery plant in Stalowa
Wola, in southeastern Poland,
intensified this week.
Solidarity activists there said
four army helicopters circled over
the plant Tuesday and 500 troops
took up positions around it. The
mill makes heavy machinery and
military hardware, and officials
have said they cannot allow the
strike there to go on indefinitely.
Senior Solidarity advisers
called today's Warsaw meeting a
historic event.
Walesa last met with a senior
government official in early 1982,
when he was still interned.
In recent (years, he has been
spoken of by the government as a
private citizen, a tool of foreign
powers and "the former head of a
former union
But in the last few months, au-
thorities have been seeking part-
ners in an attempt to open a dia-
logue with society that might help
lead the country out of economic
despondency.
"The results of this meeting. .
.will be very important for the fate
of the whole country and world
said Adam Michnik, a senior Soli-
darity adviser.
"The talks begin exactly on the
anniversary of the 1980 accords
and we want to believe that now a
new chance begins, and it will be
at a time when Poles can make use
of this chance Michnik said.
At a news conference in War-
saw, government spokesman
jerzy Urban said "the starting of
talks would be common victory

Cartoon
Overreciction not expected
The complaints are still flooding in
about the cartoon we ran on the front
page of the August 23 issue of The
East Carolinian. I'm still don't be-
lieve it.
When I instructed the staff illustra-
tor to draw a banner for the front
page of the "Welcome Back" issue, I
never dreamed we would get the
overwheling negative response we
got. I didn't think we'd get any re-
sponse at all.
Call me sexist. Call me an uncaring
pawn of a patriarchal society. I've
heard it all in the past week. Doesn't
bother me at all. But it does bother
me that The East Carolinian is ac-
cused oi these things. And since I am
the editor, I am responsible for its
editorial content.
One of the plaintiffs encouraged
me to think about the effect the car-
toon would have on a rape victim,
especially one who had been tied up
and threatened. An extreme case (no
doubt &n tirtforfunately common
oje, but an extreme C?$g for our
purposes) and yet it gave me pause
As editor, my responsibility is to
provide news, features and sports
coverage that concern ECU and the
surrounding area. My editorial re-
sponsibilities are to provide
thoughtful editorials and illustra-
tions that reflect the views of the
editorial staff of this paper. During
this semester, that means my views
and my staff's.
So are we just sexist pigs? Well,
that is irregardless in this case. The
cartoon was NOT an editorial car-
toon, only the welcome back car-
toon. It was not intended to present
ANY views whatsoever not even
the illustrator's.
But, as with anything printed or
drawn, it conciously or uncon-
ciously presents a point of view.
And it influences people. That is the
power of the media any media.
At no time during the publishing
process did I see anything wrong
with the illustration. After all the
negative response we recieved, I
understood how it might be offen-
sive, but to me personally, there is
nothing wrong with it. It is simply a
historical and literary allusion, and
therefore has nothing to do with
ECU except for the pirate motif.
This summer we published the
SGA Documents for the Student
Government Association. The same
illustrator was asked to do their
cover, and he provided a picture of a
pirate captain writing in his log book
late at night. Behind him a male
crewman is sneaking up with a
knife.
Neither the SGA nor us are advo-
cating murder. It was plain and
simply another illustration with the
pirate motif. Our front page cartoon
may not be historically precise (as I
have been informed women did not
wear strapless dresses in those
days), art has always sacrificed pre-
cision for beauty.
So why write an editorial about the
controversy? An editorial that will
probabaly only stir things up again?
Well, I wanted to explain. I could
write about the fact that it was 2 a.m.
when the cartoon finally got here
and that everyone should try to put
out a 54 page newspaper in two
days, but that would be whining. I'd
rather write about the after effects of
the fact that so many people wrote in
protesting the cartoon.
A Fa Qrjy??very leOrriUtn vas
'printecflt is our policy to print any
letter recieved as long as it's not
libelous, the letter is signed and it's
legible. The policy was made so that
we could hear the reader's feedback
and so that the readers would not
feel compelled to let us have the last
word.
All the letters were printed, all
phone messages that reached me
were returned and people that came
to see me were listened to. The latter
did not have to happen, but I feel
obliged to listen to people with
complaints, whether I feel they are
serious complaints or not.
Fact Two: Another cartoon about
the conflict, similar to the first illus-
tration, has been printed in this is-
sue. We did this because all the
controversy amused us, but we also
wanted to show we were not being
intentionally sexist.
Fact Three: The most rational
plaintiff I talked to made me realize
that we may have made a mistake in
printing the cartoon. I don't think
we did, but I was pleased to know I
was open-minded enough to doubt
it.
This is not an apology. This is an
explanation. I am proud of the both
the skill and the illustration that the
artist produced. I'm also proud we
shook things up. Most of all, I'm
proud of the newspaper.

Cartoon offends, cartoonist responds
To the Editor:
The cartoon on the front page of the
August 23rd edition of your newspa-
per, depicting a pirate with sword in
hand, approaching a bound and
gagged, scantillly-clad female, needs
some explaination. The only caption
is "Welcome Back Should the
reader assume that females returning
to ECU are subject to male aggres-
sion, or that sadistic treatment of
women is prevalent male behavior
on this campus? Is the cartoon a joke?
What was the intent of your newspa-
per in publishing such a cartoon?
Particularly ironic was the fact that
this cartoon appeared on the same
page as the lead article about Pirate
Walk. Indeed, females at ECU will
need escorts, night and day, if this
cartoon represents the attitudes and
behaviors of ECU males. I imagine
many men on this campus were as
offended as I was by such a cartoon. If
the cartoon was used merely as a
filler, its choice, at best, was a serious
error in judgment. If the cartoon was
deliberately chosen to illustrate a
macho attitude of males towards
females on our campus, its choice
indicates a total irresponsibility in
journalism on the part of your news-
paper. An explanation, please?

Development and Family Relations
To the Editor:
Since I seemed to have stirred some
ires with my "Welcome Back" illus-
tration in the August 23rd East Caro-
linian, I would like to offer my views
on the matter.
I am sorry that so many people
were upset and offended by the car-
toon. That was not my intent, nor was
it to demean women, which I don't
believe I did.
That said, I have to object to what I
think was an overreaction by the crit-
ics of the picture. First off, I resent the
implication that the picture is invit-
ing violence against women and rein-
forcing rape. I am very strongly in
opposition to those kinds of behavior
and would not have drawn the pic-
ture had I believed it did either.
To draw such conclusions from the
cartoon is simply to read too much
into it. What it actually is is a por-
trayal of the stereotypical pirate
scene so often depicted in literature
and movies. It is not representational
of any situation in relation to the
campus and the student body. It is
also not going to motivate anyone
into going out and tying up women.
men is okay, just don't direct it to-
wards women. Well, violence is not
okay directed towardsanyoneof any
sex. But it is true that had 1 shown the
man bound to the mast no one would
have written in or complained that
the picture demeaned men or subju-
gated them. If anyone is going to
object to what they think is violence,
I bcleve they should measure all
material by the same yardstick
What I would like to stress is that
the picture is a cartoon. The charac-
ters involved are in a fantasy setting,
and are not representativesof all men
and women. The picture is a poke at
a stereotype of the same kind as the
top-hatted villain tying a girl to the
railroad tracks; we're not supposed
to look at this as reality and give it
such intense consideration. It is a
cartoon. And I am not sexist or chau-
vanistic, nor am I trying to encourage
others to be that way.
I hope I have helped the people
offended see that there was nothing
malicious about the illustration, and
that no more will be read into this
letter than there is, as was the case
with the picture. Thank you for lis-

Dukakis's policies distance women
To the editor:
Have you heard of the so-called
"gender gap of 1988?" It translates as
"the majority of women won't vote
for George Bush That is debatable.
Correct cr not, however, the fact
remains that it women find out about
Michael Dukakis' views on criminals
vs. victims, particularly on rapists vs.
female victims, the "gender gap"
would likely disappear.
Dukakis is an enthusiastic sup-
porter of the unique Massachusetts
prison furlough program. Until the
law was changed this year over
Dukakis' objection, Massachusettes
was the only state to grant unsuper-
vised "vacations" (furloughs) to
first-degree murderers sentenced to
life imprisonment without parole.
In 1976, the Massachusetts Legisla-
ture passes a bill to deny furloughs to
first degree murderers. but Governor
Dukakis vetoed it.
William Hortcn, jr was serving a
sentence of life imprisonment with-
out parole in a Mass. prison after
being convicted of robbing a 17-year-
old gas station attendent in 1974,
brutally stabbing him 19 times, and
stuffing his body into a trash can.
Horton was given a Massachusetts
furlough in June 1986, and he took
advantage of the opportunity to es-
cape and leave the state. On April 3,
1987, Horton broke into a Maryland
home and terrorized a man and
woman for 12 hours. Horton tied up
the man, robbed, pistol-whipped and
kicked him, and cut him 22 times
across the middle of his body. Horton
tied the woman up for four hoursand
raped her twice.
Maryland found Horton guilty of
13 crimes and sentenced him to two
life teVras.plus 85 years. The judge
states "I'm not prepared to take the
chance that Mr. Horton might be
furloughcd he now belongs to the
state of Maryland
A Lawrence, Mass. newspaper
became interested in the story, but
the Dukakis administration refused
to release information about the
Horton case because prison officials
wanted to "protect prisoners' pri-
vacy rights
The newspaper stories, however,
activated the Massachusetts Legisla-
ture. At a public hearing, victims told
how other murderers had committed
heinous crimes, including rape,
while on Massachusetts furlough.
A prison official admitted that
under Dukakis a sentence of "life
without parole" is meaningless. Af-
ter ten years, a lifer in Mass. is rou-
tinely transferred to minimum secu-
rity and made eligible for furloughs.
The sister of the murdered gas sta-
tion attendant started a petition
campaign under the name Citizens
Against Unsafe Society (CAUS).
When she and other female victims of
murderers-on-furlough encoun-
tered Gov. Dukakis, he warned them
that they were "not going to change
my mind
The CAUS women set out to gather
the issue on the ballot in a Nov. 1988
referendum, and they succeeded in
getting them by the December 1987
deadline. In April 1988, the Massa-
chusetts Legislature overwhelm-
ingly passed a bill to prohibit fur-
loughs for murders.
The issue isn't dead, however,
because Dukakis didn't want to sign
the law and did so very reluctantly.
He has never apologized to or ex-
pressed compassion for the victims
of Massachusetts-murdcrcrs-on-fur-
lough.
At present time, there are 76 con-
victed criminals (including 10 mur-
derers and 9 rapists) who are missing
as a result of being released on fut-
loughs during Dukakis' administra-
tion.
And Dukakis is the Presidential
nominee selected by the so-called
"party of compassion!?" How could
any woman vote for a man who puts
the "rights" of rapists and murderers
over the rights of women to be pro-
tected from these same rapists and
murderers.

though she says no one was held

people died, the wife of the pilot

Activists hold ceremonies for 157 fetuses
RALEIGH (AP) - Anti-abortion
activists say they held a funeral
tor 157 fetuses to show their dig-
nity , but pro-choice advocates say
it was a "gruesome exercise" that
demonstrated the frustration of a
movement that has been unable to
change federal abortion laws.
"It's an affront to the women
who chose the procedure, an inva-
sion oi their personal privacy and
completely insensitive to the cir-
cumstances oi their lives and to
their religious beliefs said Ruth
Ziegler, director oi the National
Abortion Rights Action League of
North Carolina.
"Basically, I think most people
find it repugnant Ziegler said.
But Lucy O'Kcefe of Chapel
Hill, who organized the service
Tuesday, said the funeral was an
answer to those who think "the
unborn are trash
"What we are doing is some-
thing very straight-forward -
praying for the dead Ms.
O'Kcefe said after the service at
Our Lady oi Lordes Catholic
Church in Raleigh.
"It's not about labs in Chicago
or abortion clinics, or even moth-
ers, in North Carolina Ms.
O'Keefesaid. "It'sabout 157dcad
human beings
Joseph Scheidler, director of the
Pro-Life Action League, a na-
tional anti-abortion group based
in Chicago, said Sunday that the
fetuses had been found during a
search through the garbage at a
research lab in Chicago bv activ-
ists looking for abortion remains.
The fetuses were individually
packaged and labeled, he said,
with the names oi the mothers,
doctors, dates and places abor-
tions were performed.
The fetuses were sent to Ms.
O'Kcefe, who had a single coffin
made for them and asked the Dio-
cese of Raleich to conduct the

gangs to take over drug traffick-
ing operations in North Carolina,
Attorney General Lacy Thorn-
burg savs.
"What makes the Jamaican
gangs so dangerous is the vio-
lence associated with them John
Simmons, Thornburg's spokes-
man, said Tuesdav before the start
of a two-day conference of law en-
forcement officials trom North
Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gia and Florida.
"When they move in, they
move in with the intention oi
dominating the drug trade, and if
that means blowing away the
competition, they'll do that,
Simmons said. "Drive-by mur-
ders and random killings are typi-
cal. That's one way they intimi-
date the community and other
drug dealers. They don't care
who's in the way. "
The conference at North Caro-
lina State Lniverstiy is closed to
reporters because law enforce-
ment agencies will be trading in-
telligence information on the
gangs, which have made inroads
into drug trafficking in such cities
as Atlanta, Miami and New York.
"The Jamaican gangs represent
a peculiar threat because of the
viciousness of their operation,
Thornburg told 150 lawmen
Tuesday: "We have to be pre-
pared to head then off at the pass,
making it very uncomfortable for
the gangs to organize in North
Carolina.
"The Jamaican gangs can be
controlled and can be defeated,
but only if all law enforcement
agencies work together, " he said.
The conference, hosted by the
SBI's Criminal Intelligence Sec-
tion and the Raleigh Police De-
partment, is the first of its kind in
the state.
Raleigh Police Chief Frederick
Heineman said the Jamaican
gangs, called posses, arc danger-
ous because of their violence and
recause they move quickly.
"Jamaican gangs aren't like a
space program Heineman said.
"It doesn't take years to develop.
A group of Jamaicans can be set
up and operating within a week
The conference has scheduled
workshops on the roles of local
law officers, as well as a number
of federal agencies, in fighting Ja-
maican gangs.
According to State Bureau of
Investigation figures, 278 persons
claiming to be native Jamaicans
have been arrested in North Caro-
lina in the past 10 years, the ma-
jority in the last two to three years.
service. The coffin, which was not
present at the funeral service, was
taken to Guadalupc Catholic
Church in Newton Grove for
burial Tuesday afternoon.
Monsignor James McSwceney
said even though the fetuses were
not present at the service, an enve-
lope with 157 names "chosen by
concerned people" was placed on
the church altar and would be
buried with the casket.
"We are here to give reverence
to our belief that God is the crea tor
and sustainer of life and that ev-
ery stage of human development
from conception to natural death
is sacred to God McSweeney
told about 200 people, including
many mothers with young chil-
dren. "We arc here because of the
intrinsic dignity oi these human
beings whose lives will never
"flourish
McSwceney said the world had
been "repulsed and horrified" by
the slaughter of 6 million Jews
during World War II, but he said
abortions "are a new holocaust in
which millions of lives are
snuffed out for no other reason
than that their existence is an
embarrassment
"With the enormity of this
tragic waste of precious human
life . . . our faith requires us to
make our own fervent prayer,
'Father forgive them, for they
know not what they do
McSwceney said.
He said the world would never
know what music, art, love or
compassion the fetuses could
have brought.
"We were never given an op-
portunity to know these unborn
children McSweeney said. "Our
lives will not be enriched by them.
The lives of us all have been di-
minished by their being deprived
of life
Ms. O'Kcefe, who had kept the
fetuses in her kitchen, said she ini-
tially feared she would have
nightmares with the bags of re-
mains in her house.
"But there was none of that
shesaid. "Instead, I felt a descend-
ing sense of peace that the right
thing was happening

Two million needed to save Bishop College
(CPS) Bishop College, a 108-
vear-old traditionally black
school, was ordered closed by a
i deral judge after it tailed to raise
almost $2 million needed tocover
its prospective 1988-89 deficit
Bishop, whose financial woes
and enrollment problems began a
decade ago. is the latest small
private college to close as college
costs skv rocket and the pool of
available high school graduates
diminishes.
A 1982 University of Michigan
stud) predicted that as many as
1 small, private colleges like
Bishop would close by 1990.
That dire prediction didn't
materialize, said David Ray of the
National Association of Inde-
pendent Colleges and Universi-
ties, but many small, religious and
black institutions have been
forced to close or merge with
healthier schools.
Earlier this year, for example,
I oretto 1 eights College in Den-
ver, a small Catholic school, was
forced to merge with Regis Col-
lege.
In 1986, financial problems
pushed Titt College in Atlanta to
merge with Mercer University
and forced Berkshire Christian
College in Massachusetts to close
its doors. In 1984, enrollment and
financial problems forced Rhode
Island's Barrington College to
merge with Cordon College.
Generally, however, "enroll-
ments are steady" at the smaller
private campuses, Ray reported.
'The seats are still full. "
lames Miller, who conducted
the Michigan study, said he over-
estimated the number of small
colleges that would close because
he underestimated "the institu-
tional tenacity" of schools like
Bishop.
"There have been remarkably
few that haveclosed Miller said.
"Bishop provides an example of
how hard it is to kill a college, or
rather how fiercely colleges cling
to life
Bishop, the only predominantly
black campus in the Dallas area,
had struggled for 16 months to
raise the $1.85 million bankruptcy
Judge Robert C. McGuire said
was necessary to open the school
this fall.
Campus supporters, who esti-
mate th school owes about $18
million to creditors, attempted to
keep the school open with an in-
tensive fundraising drive that in-
cluded selling T-shirts outside the
federal courthouse.
George McElreath, the federal
bankruptcy trustee overseeing
the case, said attorneys told him

Wildfires threatening town
California firefighters battled
more than 170 fires, while gusts in
Yellowstone threatened to fan a
90,000-acre blaze toward 600 cab-
ins and the park superintendent
said there was no end in sight to
this summer's wildfires.
Montana ranchers prepared for
possible evacuation today, and
crews fought woodland blazes in
Idaho, Oregon, Washington,
Nevada and Utah.
In California, nearly 9,500 light-
ning strikes Tuesday sparked
scores of blazes a year after a
similar barrage spawned devas-
tating fires. Firefighters said more
than 4,600 acres had burned, but
they held most of the blazes to an
acre or less in the drought-
parched wildlands.
Crews were hampered by 100-
plus-dcgree temperatures, winds
and lightning in some areas. The
unfavorable conditions were ex-
pected to continue today.
Altogether on state land, 73
lightning-sparked fires burned
2,700 acres, said state Department
of Forestry spokeswoman Karen
Terrill.
U.S. Forest Service spokesman
Matt Mathes said 43 lightning-
caused fires in Southern Califor-
nia national forests burned just 30
acres, while 60 blazes in northern
The East Carolinian
California national forests black-
ened 1,900 acres.
"We are flying over the areas to
determine if there are any (other)
hot spots Terrill said.
Near San Francisco, fire swept
through dry brush and trees Tues-
day in Orinda, destroying five
houses and badly damaging two
others.
Police believe an electronically
ignited toy rocket may have
sparked the blaze, which was
controlled in about two hours
without reports of injuries.
"This has been the worst time of
my life said Beverly Hopp,
whose 33-year-old home was
destroyed. "What do you do after
all these years?"
The only thing she and her
husband, Al, could save was a
desk containing money and in-
surance papers.
In Wyoming, flames from the
90,000-acre North Fork fire at yel-
lowstone National park moved to
within a quarter-mile Tuesday of
the Canyon hotel and camp-
ground comples.
Firefighters hoped for an early
winter to quell blazes burning
about a fifth of the 2.2 million-acre
park, but Yellowstone's superin-
tendent offered little encourage-
ment.
"When will this end? Frankly,
ladies and gentlemen, that's
anybody's guess Robert Barbee
told about 100 people Tue:day
night at a meeting in nearby Gar-
diner, Montana.
Gusty winds forecast for this
afternoon threatened to again
close some park roads that were
put off limits Tuesday afternoon
but later reopened.
Yellowstone spokeswoman
Linda young said activity on the
34,000-acre wolf Lake fire forced
closure of one road, and a flareup
in North Fork blaze closed
yellowstone's west entrance for
several hours.
To the north in Montana, wi nds
played havoc with efforts to con-
trol the 190,000-acre Clover-Mist
fire, burning in Yellowstone and
in neighboring Shoshone Na-
tional Forest.
Officials closed U.C. 212 rear
Cooke City for a time Tuesday as
soldiers chased spot fires.
Ranchers were planning for
possible evacuation today along
western Montana's Rocky Moun-
tain Front where a previously
"lct-it-burn" wilderness fire
jumped onto national forest and
private land Tuesday. Hundreds
of firefighters rushed to keep it
from spreading further.
The 39,000-acre blaze in the
Scapegoat Wilderness roared into
Lewis and Clark National Forest,
burning 7,000 additional acres.
Livestock and horses were
removed from cabins threatened
by the 9-week-old blaze, which
was sparked by lightning, and
some ranchers left as a precau-
tion.
In Idaho, crews near the Wyo-
ming line worked to protect
ranches in the Caribou National
Forest, after a 6,000-acre fire
burned to within a mile of the
properties Tuesday. One family
was evacuated because they lack a
telephone and couldn't be noti-
fied in case the blaze blew up. Sev-
enteen major fires are burning
70,000 acres in Idaho.
The number of firefighters
more than doubled Tuesday to
679 at Oregon's biggest forest fire,
which has burned 36,000 acres in
the Wallowa-Whitman National
Forest and the Hell's Canyon
National Recreation Area.
Favorable weather in eastern
Washington helped thousands of
firefighters gain a handle on fires
burning on more than 23,000
acres. Winds were light tuesday
as crews cut trails around nearly
70 percent of major fires on the
Colville Indian Reservation.

Crisis complicating relations
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. -
Soviet relations were in a whirl-
wind of confusion even before
Polish workers staged their latest
occupation strikes.
The United States is engaged in
the always disorienting process of
choosing a new president.
And the Soviet Union is emerg-
ing from a tumultuous Commu-
nist Party conference filled with
boisterous calls for economic re-
form and greater democratiza-
tion.
"Not only is it a period of great
flux, but as far as the Soviet Union
is concerned, it is in the most fluid
state since the U917 Russian)
revolution said Madeleine Al-
bright, the chief foreign policy
adviser to Democratic presiden-
tial nominee Michael Dukakis.
Ms. Albright, born in Czechoslo-
vakia, is an expert on East-West
relations and a professor at Geor-
getown University.
The latest Polish upheaval
poses, loud and clear, one of the
unanswered questions about the

(CPS) It doesn't pay to nag stu-
dents about how bad drinking can
oe for them.
Renelle Massey of the Univer-
sity of South Florida found that
challenging students' assump-
tions that alcohol makes them
funny, brave, more sociable, sex-
ier or better in some other way is
the most effective way of getting
students to cut down their drink-
ing.
"We're lookking at this as an
approach to prevention" of alco-
hol abuse, Massey said.
Some studies indicate that as
many as 82 percent of the nation's
collegians drink regularly, and
excessive drinking has turned
into a problem at many schools.
Intoxicated students were
blamed for turning a 1986 Colo-
rado State University block party
into a riot, while hundreds have
been arrested during drunken
spring break riots in Palm Beach,
Cal and Palm Springs, Fla. in
recent years. Drunken parties at
Iowa State and the University of
California-Santa Barbara last
spring also led toarrests, injuries
and vandalism.
Excessive drinking has killed
several students in recent years: a
Rutgers University fraternity
pledge died in February after a
"drink til you're sick" hazing
session, for example. In 1985, a
University of Colorado sorority
pledge was killed after falling
from a bridge during a drunken
party.
Hoping to curb such incidents
and comply with lower drinking
age laws, most campuses have
developed "alcohol awareness
programs" that generally focus
on the ill effects of drinking.
lar commitment to invigorate the
economy?
The wrong answer from
Moscow or Warsaw to that ques-
tion will present the next Ameri-
can president with a dilemma.
"The problem that the next
president is going to have to de-
cide is whether to continue to
demand perfection from the So-
viet bloc, or whether to just de-
clare victory and accept any
change for the better. And there is
no question that things are getting
better said jerry Hough, a Soviet
expert at Duke University.
"It seems that everybody is
holding his breath said Charles
Fairbanks of the Johns Hopkins
center for advanced international
studies. "There is a marked move-
ment toward detente, but no one

A new explosion of violence in
Poland could delay or derail the
train.
Two weeks ago Polish workers,
with their backs to the economic
wall, began a second wave of occu-
pation strikes this year, demanding
that the government recognize and
negotiate with the banned Solidar-
ity trade union.
The strikes foued Polish leaders
to meet today with Solidarity's
leader, Lech Walesa, with whom
they had vowed not to negotiate
since releasing him from martial
law internment in 1982.
Polish leader Gen. Wojciech
Jaruzelski has introduced reforms
which, like Gorbachev's program,
loosen central controls and allow a
greater role for market forces. But
the Polish reforms have not stimu-
lated the economy

(AP) - Family members desper-

Bi-annual testing causing drop-outs
RALEIGH (AP) - North
Carolina's failure to administer
the competency test more than
twice a year makes it hard to keep
students from dropping out of
their adult high school diploma
programs, representatives of sev-
eral community colleges say.
"Retention of students is a big
problem for community col-
leges said Cavaretta Martin,
supervisor of the adult high
school diploma program at Nash
Community College. "Students
cannot always wait to take the
test, especially those going into
the service. We need another ad-
ministration of the test
Martin made his feelings
known to the N.C. Testing
Commission. The commission
heard his and several other com-
plaints about the various tests it
requires of students in North
Carolina, The Greensboro News
& Record reported.
Besides the competency test,
the state requires schools to ad-
minister the California Achieve-
ment Test in grades 3,6 and 8;
social studies and science tests in
the same grades; and end-of-
course tests in Algebra I and sev-
eral other courses in high school.
About 50 school officials at-
tended Tuesday's hearing, but
only eight spoke. The hearing is
one of three the commission is
holding as part of its annual effort
to hear public opinion about its
testing programs The others will
be in Wrightsville Beach Sept. 15
and in Hendersonville Oct. 27.
The commission will use the
comments to consider what
changes, if any, are needed in the
testing program. It will give a
report on the hearings to the State
Board of Education on December
7.
The competency test, which all
high school students must pass to
graduate, is administered twice a
year - in February and May. Stu-
dents who drop out of high school
often go to community colleges
and enroll in the adult high school
diploma program which lets
them take courses required for
graduation.
However, once they pass those
courses, they frequently have to
wait months to take the required
competency tests. That delay, the
community college officials said
causes many students to drop ou'
without getting their diploma
Court of appeals says no
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A U.S.
appeals court struck down new
guidelines establishing a range of
sentences for federal crimes, rul-
ing the standards are unconstitu-
tional bQQause thqy. l re grafted
bv judges as a political act.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals, the highest court to rule
on the issue, said Tuesday that
placing three federal judges on
the seven-member sentencing
commissior violated constitu-
tional separations of powers.
in a 2-1 vote, the court decided
the use of judges on the commis-
sion interfered with the "aura of
judicial impartiality" by allowing
the president to appoint . d re-
move members, said the opinion
by Judge Alex Kozinski.
"Congress may not, under our
system of separated powers, re-
quire judges to serve on bodies
that make political decisions
Kozinski said.
The decision affects only the
region covered by the 9th Circuit,
comprising nine Western states,
Guam and the Northern Mari-
anas. However, the court is the
nation's first on the appellate
level to rule on the validity of the
guidelines.
Other federal judges nation-
wide have issued numerous con-
flicting rulings or. challenges to
the guidelines, mostly based on
the separation-of-powers issue.
The guidelines wei-c challenged
by public defender who were
displeased with provisions that
lengthened sentences for many
crimes and restricted judges' au-
thority
The chairman of the sentencing
commission, Judge William Wilk-
ins of the ?' h U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals in Richmond, Va said
he was dit appointed by the ruling
but added, 'We'll be having a
definitive and final answer from
the "JS. Supreme Court real
soon '
Wi'kins, interviewed from
Was-T ;tor. on Larry King's syn-
dicated radio talk show, said
courts have decided about 200
cases based on validity of the sen-
tencing guidelines, with the rul-
ings about evenly divided.
The Supreme Court has sched-
uled arguments on the issue for
Oct. 5 in a Missouri case, he said.
Tuesday's ruling on two con-
solidated challenges from San
Diego said the commission vio-
lated the constitutional limit on
the role of the judiciary because
"its function is political and not
judicial in nature
Kozinski said the commission
had to make rules and policies
having the force of law, "tasks
that only the legislative or execu-
tive branches, and not the judici-
ary, may constitutionally per-
form
The guidelines, which took ef-
fect in November, recommend
minimum and maximum sen-
tences for each crime, requiring
the judge to state unusual circum-
stances for imposing a sentence
outside the range.
The appeals court also found
invalid the 1984 sentencing law
that created the Sentencing
Commission and abclishcl pa-
role in post-November 1987 cases.
Such a ruling would restrc the
entire previous law, v hich gener-
ally gave judges wide-ranging
sentencing discretion and pro-
vided for parole eligibility after
one-third of a sentence.
"We're very happy with the
guidelines being thrown out
said Geoff Hansen, an assistant
federal public defender in San
Francisco. "We're just ecstatic
that we don't have to deal with
this nightmare any more
But he said lawyers will be "in
some state of uncertainty" in deal-
ing with many recent cases, in-
cluding some where the guide-
lines helped individual defen-
dants and others involving plea-
bargains based on the guidelines.
The status of parole is also un-
clear, he said.
Kozinski said the commission's
detailed rules on sentences for
each crime inv?de the executive
and legislative policy-making
roies in many ways. For example,
it said sentences for white-collar
crimes were too short, that all
defendants except the poorest
must pay fines. The commission
also refrained from issuing any
guidelines on the death penalty,
he said.

said Thomas M. Leahy III, chief
engineer on the project. "Check

and it certainly will be a different

Construction is expected to take
three to five vears.
The city originally had hoped to
start construction this summer so
the pipeline would be finished in

of water supply and demand in

But the target date has been

by the Army Corps of Engineers
that allows Virginia Beach to

North Carolina is challenging
the validity of the permit in U.S.
District Court in Raleigh.

Preachers
taught at home
MARION, N.C. (AP) - After
repeated suspensions from
school, it appears that three
McDowell County children who
preached at the school gates will
be taught at home.
After day-long negotiations
Tuesday, the president of a Chi-
cago-based advocacy organiza-
tion said David and Robin Strode,
the children's parents, had signed
a piece of paper asking that their
children be removed from
Eastficld Elementary School and
be taught at home.
"We pictty much got what eve-
rybody wanted said Dan Rod-
den, president of Caleb Cam-
paign, a nonprofit Christian civil
rights organization.
But David Rickctts, superinten-
dent of the McDowell County
schools, said he was no sure an
agreement had been reached.
"We don't know that that's
their decision he said.
ust who would teach the chil-
dren and what arrangements
would be made were not part of
the agreement disclosed to re-
porters.
Strode said he and his family
could not afford to hire a teacher
o to oay for the at-home curricu-
lum needed.
'I don't want to run a school
here he said. "But I am for the
children
Rodden said his nonprofit or-
ganization would help with the
education program and even help
the unemployed Strode, 40, find a
zo.
"We know he has had hard
time and we know people who
wouldbc willing to help he said.
The Strodcs did not meet with
?hool officials Tuesday, but in-
stead allowed Rodden and Ralph
Davis, another representative of
the Caleb Campaign, to shuttle
back and forth between the school
and the Strode home, about 1 1 2
blocks.
"I know how Henry Kissinger
feels Rodden said, referring to
his negotiations.
Until noon Tuesday, Rodden
and Davis were "working to save
the marriage" between the chil-
dren - Duffcy, 11, Pepper, 7 and
Matthew, 6 - and the school. Rod-
den said. "At noon today, I real-
ized the marriage was unsavable
?d we went for a divorce
Although Rodden said the
agreement satisfied everyone,
David Strode did not appear
happy when he came out of the
house late Tuesday afternoon. His

look at the project's effects on
striped bass and to reassess Vir-
ginia Beach's long-term water
needs. The corps reported back in
June, once again endorsing the
pipeline.
Responses by interested parties
to the new report were submitted
to the corps this month and are to
be sent to Britt by the fall.
A city study says that in 1991
there will not be enough quality
water during times of drought.
"If by 1990 we are not suffi-
ciently free of litigation, we will
have to develop interim, emer-
gency supplies to bridge the gap
Warnstaff said.
That could include drilling
deeper wells or building a desalt-
ing plant - at about twice the cost
oi the Gaston project. Other op-
tions are a moratorium on build-
ing and frequent water conserva-
tion and rationing.
Five of the seven localities be-
tween Lake Gaston and Suffolk,
where the water would be
pumped through Norfolk's treat-
ment plant to Virginia Beach,
have given the city permission to
build the pipeline. An application
is pending with Brunswick
County.
The last remaining locality is
Suffolk. "The design of the project
is not far along enough in Suffolk
to apply Leahy said.
Leahy said Virginia Beach has
acquired about 25 percent of the
land needed to build the pipeline,
and the city is close to sealing a
deal with Norfolk Southern Cor-
poration for 50 miles of pipeline
route. If that deal is consum-
mated, the city will have two-
thirds of the necessary property.
Progress also has been made on
the financing front.
A Virginia Beach Circuit Court
judge ruled last week that the
city's water impact fee, created to
help pay for the pipeline, is legal.
City Council will decide on
Sept. 6 whether to ask for the vot-
ers' permission for bonds to fi-
nance part of the project. The ref-
erendum would be held in No-
vember.

Drummer Stutts, who along

"Thanks a lot for your time Mrs.
Bell I said at the end of the inter-

"Thank you, and please, call me
Nancy This informality seems
typical of Nancy Bell's easy-going
and warm personality. This kind
of personality seems natural for a
retired social worker, but a busi-
ness woman?
Bell is a business woman
though, as well as a semi-retired
medical social worker. And her
first business venture seems
poised to breakthrough in a big
way.
Some graduate students and
seniors may remember the purple
"Pirate rags" that used to wave
back and forth in the stands dur-
ing football season. For some
reason, the unknown companv
that manufactured these screen
printed handkerchiefs decided to
stop making them.
But Bell and her husband, re-
cent ECU alumni, remembered
them, lor a couple oi years they
kicked the idea around, wonder-
ing if they could start producing
them. They had a couple ot the old
ones, but nothing gelled until they
watched the World Series.
The abundance of the Minne-
sota Twin "Homerun Hankies"
prompted them to make an idea
into reality. With a small inheir-
itence and money from their per-
sonal savings, they ordered the 15
inch by 15 inch purple handker-
chiefs.
The companv, Collegiate Con-
cepts of Atlanta, had no handker-
chiefs that size, so they had to be
special ordered.
Bell brought them to BLT's, a
local screenpnnter and had them
stylized with the Pirate logo and
the school seal, a substantially

Jazz musician reaches goal
By STEPHANIE FOLSOM
Staff Writer
This summer proved an ambi-
tious one for Wayne, James,
James, a jazz musician and part-
time student at ECU, started
reaching his goals this summer as
a musician and as a person.
James, a 21-year-old senior
majoring in music education with
a minor in piano, was contacted
last April by the Christopher
Hightower Publishing Company
to work on music arrangements.
In July he was given his biggest
project of the summer. He was
asked to do the arrangement for
the theme song to be played at
Somerset Place on Saturday, Sep-
tember 3.
Dorothy Redford wrote a book
about Somerset Place, tracing her
roots back to the former slave
plantation in Creswell, NC. Her
family reunites there every year
around Labor Day. This year such
prominent persons as Alex Haley
and Jesse Jackson will be present.
Another chance to use" his musi-
cal talents occurred at the Demo-
cratic banquet in Atlanta.
Last October, while James and
other members of the Brazz Band
were playing at a homecoming
reunion, James' first opportunity
to play at he convention arose.
"There was a man there (at the
reunion) from Atlanta who was
impressed with the band. He
talked about us playing with
some sort of thing relating to the
Democratic Convention said
James. The chance fell through for
the Brazz Band. Since some mem-
bers of the band had prior obliga-
tions.
"They had other obligations,
but I did have the chance to go
down there said James. "I knew
some people down in Atlanta
who knew 1 was a musician
James played at a small banquet,
which he said was mostly for
delegates. "Everything went

The article was 98 pages long

record critics. In other words, 100
pages full of maudlin reminen-

believe Bruce Springsteen created

asked her to buy it for me. I don't

last good thing the Who did, and
if they'd stopped after this song, I
might be more excited about their
upcoming reunion.
9. "You Can't Always Get What
You Want" ?The Rolling Stones.
Maybe the most gothic of their
songs and almost overproduced,
but it skirts that fine line neatly.
From the choir singing at the
beginning to the guitar solo at the
end, there's not a moment on this
song that's wasted.
So there you have it. As you can
see, I'm a big fan of back-up sing-
ers. I almost made it a top ten so I
could include Kim Wilde's re-
make of "Keep Me Hanging On"
for the "wooo-wooo" back-ups.
No doubt I will end up being a
studio back-up singer when I
grow up.
It's kind of ironic that "Rolling
Stone" did a top 100 list of 45s, a
product that will be dead in an-
other year, replaced by the CD
three-inch. This will kill scratch
rapping and probably the three
minute single.
But to all of us who grew up,
singing the chours of our favorite
seven-inch pieces of vinyl this
column's for you. Next week:

while the show has aided in the
catching, and therefore in the
convicting, of some criminals
who might never have been
caught or convicted without it,
I'm still not convinced that it does
more good than harm.
If nothing else, a criminal
who was featured on the show
might go free by claiming that, as
a result of the show, no jury could
be unprejudiced. And before you
treat this thought too lightly, note
that this is one objection that has
been raised to the upcomirg trial
of one particularly photogenic
suspect - Lt. Col. Oliver North.
And one more thing: Guy
Montag escaped. But his pursu-
ers, realizing that Montag had
eluded them, saved face by killing
another man in his stead. Think
about it.

Pictured here are the Connells, Michael Connell, George Huntley,
Doug MacMilan, David Connell, and Peele Wimberley. Compared to
the Smithsand Simon and Garfunkcl, the Connells bring their melodic
collection of folk-rock to the Attic Friday night.
Originating from the rock and roll town of Raleigh (more satire), the
Connells were voted the best new local band in the Spectator's 'Best in
the Triangle in 1988.
Their second album, Boylan Heights (named after a Raleigh Mrect)
has earned critical acclaim both in the U.S. and over seas in England. At
one time the record ranked second on many college radio station c harts.
Expect some guitar lickings in originals, "OT Squared" and bagpipe

ing Alice Cooper tune "I'm Eighteen" and a Doors tune here and there.
Besides being compared to every band ever, save Led Zeppeb n, the

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
SEPTEMBER 1,1988
The incredible animal half page
Alligators look like dead meat
CORKSCREW, Ha. (AP) ?
Drawn by adventure and hopes of
big profits. Florida's 238 newly
licensed alligator hunters are get-
ting ready to begin the state's first
legal gator hunt in 26 years.
More than 5,000 novice and
skilled hunters alike scrambled to
apply for the permits after game
officials announced the hunt,
designed to trim an alligator
population that was once threat-
ened by poachers but is now an
estimated at 1 million.
Wide-eyed amateurs will be
stalking freshwater swamps,
lakes and streams with hopes of
cashing in on their catch, which
can bring as much as $1,000 for a
10-foot gator's skin and meat.
But some experts are wonder-
ing if the permit holders really
know what they're in for.
"You got to laugh when you
hear these people say they're
going to make money off this
hunt said 37-year-old Dale
Dunaway, who operates one of
florida's few alligator processing
plants.
"They don't figure in the time,
expenses ? and don't forget the
danger Dunaway said Tuesday.
TdTike to see some people's faces
the first time a gator takes a bite at
their airboat
For 30 days beginning at sunset
Thursday, the randomly selected
permit holders will be allowed to
hunt in designated areas where
the gator population is
extraordinarily high.
Waterfront resident all over
Florida called for a hunt against
the carnivorous reptiles after a 10
12?foot bull gator killed 4-year
-old Erin Glover in the Gulf Coast
community of Englewood in
June.
But game officials have placed
tight restrictions on the hunt.
PErmit holders will be working at
night, when flashlights make the
reptiles' eye glow eerily red. And
they are not allowed to use guns,
relying on clubs, traps and hooks
attached to poles.
The harvest is limited to up to
3,435 gators, with each hunter
limited to 15 gators each.
"We expect to be ud non-stOD
from Thursday until about Mon-
day, either skinning or hunting
Dunaway said at his 2-year-old
processing operation in this re-
mote southwest Florida town.
"We're gonna be looking at a lot of
dead gators
Skinning an average alligator is
a full day's work, Dunaway reck-
ons.
First he plunges his hunting
knife through the gator's thick
hide at the tip of it tail. Then, it's a
slow and difficult cut to the snout.
"You got to look at it as an hour
a foot to properly skin and gut a
gator said Dunaway. "There's
no way around it. It's hard work,
you bet
Some of the experienced hunt-
ers will be permitted to use the
equipment at the gator house, a
cement frame enclosed by screen
wire and decorated by deer ant-
lers.
But the novice trappers will
have to sit and watch their catch
be pried apart.
Alligators are cut up the back to
preserve the valuable hide cover-
ing the belly and underarms, said
Dunaway. The hide, which sells
for about $42 a foot to foreign
manufacturers, is submerged in a
brine solution for about a week.
The excess flesh is then scraped
off and the skin is sun dried.
"And we bury the innards as far
away as possible said Dunaway.
"They got a powerful smell and if
you ever cut open the stomach
you better start running
The meat, which Dunaway says
makes a nice addition to spaghetti
sauce, must be frozen within
hours after the alligator is killed.
Turbo pig wins the 10th annual race at Pork Chop Downs
COLUMBUS, OHIO (AP)?
The Swine Arena on the Ohio
State Fairgrounds became Pork
Chop Downs as 15 pigs saun-
tered, sprinted and stumbled
toward the finish line a slop
trough in the 10th annual pig race.
The winner was Turbo Pig,
whose time of 3.9 seconds shaved
more than a second off the 2.7-
second mark set last year by
Squealing Demon.
Three hogs painted with or-
ange, green and blue racing
stripes competed in the first of
nine heats Thursday. It was a
close race until Joan Jett and Slop
Buster collided halfway down the
50-foot track.
Seizing the opportunity, Al-
berto Clipper won it by a snout,
clocking in at 4.4 seconds.
Other first-round winners were
eventual champ Turbo Pig, Boar-
ing Down, Fried Bacon, New Deal
Charlie, Burning Buns, Crisp
Cutlet, Calvin Swine and Bugsy.
Second-round eliminations
narrowed the field to Boaring
Down, New Deal Charlie, Burn-
ing Buns and Turbo Pig.
As anticipation grew and ver-
bal bets were placed, Turbo Pig
broke loose from the starting gate
and headed for the feed trough.
Race action was stalled until five
officials cornered the pig and cor-
ralled him into the starting gate.
With all four pigs in place, the
starting bell sounded.
Burning Buns took the early
lead but squealed and slowed
down as Boaring Down darted in
front of him. New Deal Charlie
ran to the outside and stopped for
a fraction of a second to check out
the crowd. Turbo Pig took advan-
tage of Charlie's curiosity, cross-
ing the finish line to claim first
place.
Amy Herbkersman of Collins,
who won $234 for Turbo Pig's
performance, said she doesn't do
anything special to prepare her
hog for race day.
"He's just a really fast pig she
said. "I give him really good feed,
but I don't train him much

Stop cutting up cats, professor
GREENSBORO (AP)?An ani-
mal rights group picketed on the
University of North Carolina at
Greensboro campus tuesday
night in an effort to get a professor
to stop using cats and kittens in
his work.
About 30 protesters of the
North CartMna NeKttfc
mals contend the research con-
ducted by psychology Professor
James at 21

pretty good. It was very interest-
ing said James.
James' big personal project
began with paperwork this sum-
mer. He hopes to have everything
completed by next year to lift an
organization, HYPO , oft the
ground. "HYPO" stands for
"Help Young People Overcome
"What I mean by HYPO is to
overcome drugs and alcohol
"This idea all comes from a guy
who has gone through quite a few
problems in his life with alcohol
said James. "I want to try to get
through to as many young people
as I can who want to overcome
drugs and alcohol. These young
people have to grow up some-
time
When asked what he wants to
do in the future, James said, "I
want to repay God for all his bless-
ings by helping other people is
I'm able to be of service. I guess
that's what I'm all about
Walter Salinger is painful and
stressful to the animals including
altering their vision and that it has
no known human application.
UNCG officials said that
Salinger's research benefits the
understanding of a disease that
affects about two percent of the
million people
"The benefits to humans make
this research worthwhile. Other-
wise, we wouldn't do it, " said
Stephen Mosier, UNCG's director
of research services, who said he
spoke for Salinger and the univer-
sity. "We don't torture animals,
and we don't subject animals to
pain. Just as human surgery is
done under anesthesia, so is ani-
mal, surgery, "
;
Mosier said he spoke for Salin-
ger so that the professor could
spend time on his teaching and
research.

'Squirrel many strikes once again
GREENVILLE, N.C. (BP) ?
(Irccnville's mysterious "squirrel
man" has struck again!
Three self-proclaimed "skate
rats" were attacked in the parking
lot of Eastbrook Apartments
Wednesday night. Thirteen-year-
old Bryan "Slash" Wheeler was
killed in the first reported death
caused by a six-foot tall human-
oid squirrel that allegedly at-
tacked two freshmen girls last
week.
The two surviving skate-
boarders were released from Pitt
County 1 lospital this morning.
Police Chief Gordon O'Hara
told reporters todavThe boy
was cut up had. Looked like he'd
been pushed through a blender
on the puree setting
Alex Cuervos, 12, told
policeWe were doing some rad
jumps off the curbs. Throwin' a
few rocks at cars. Then, all oi a
sudden this big hairy guy with a
tail ran across the road on all
fours
"He bit Slash on the leg. Me and
Tony tried to pull him off. The
squirrel guy's teeth just pulled
out a chunk of his leg when we
finally got him off he said.
O'Hara said Cuervos and the
remaining survivor, Tony
Bacardi, 13, pelted the creature
with rocks. The squirrel man then
ran back across Greenville Boule-
vard, nearly missing being hit by a
red Cadillac convertible.
"Those kids did the smart thing.
No squirrel, no matter how big, is
gonna stick around to get hit by
rocks he said.
The two boys then attempted to
pull their friend to the hospital on
their skateboards. Wheeler was
pronounced dead on arrival, due
to excessive blood loss.
O' Hara is filming public safety
announcements that begin airing
tonight. In them he gives advice
for Greenville citizens that may
run into the creature Don't walk
alone. Carry rocks with you at all
times
During an interview, Dr. Thy-
roid Glans stated his main con-
cern. "This thing may be in-
fected with rabies. We have found
no trace of it in the victims, but it
is a possibility
Glans had no specific theories
concerning the origins of the
squirrel man. "It may be some
kind of mutation, or a missing
link. Whatever it is, it's danger-
ous
O' Hara urges anyone with
sightings of the creature, or infor-
mation to call the Squirrel Man

Pirates are ready to start football season
BY DOUG JOHNSON
Sports Editor
There are a lit ot similarities
between the ECU Pirates and the
Golden Eagles of Tennessee Tech.
They both wear purple and gold
uniforms. Thev bom utilize the
run-and-shoot offense. And they
both were 5-6 last season.
This Saturday, these
similarities won't mean anything.
Both teams will be out to
establish themselves, and to start
the 1988 season with a win. No
one is more ready for this than
Pirate Head Coach Art Baker.
"We're as anxious as any team in
the country right now to get
started he said during a press
conference held at the Pirate's
Club. "Our pre-season drills have
been very productive, and I can
say that we're ready to hit
someone besides our
teammates
However, Baker is under no
illusion that the task ahead will be
an easy one. "Tennessee Tech is
always a tough, hard-nosed
football team he said. "They will
be very ready to play us, I can
promise you that. They always
have good size and play with
agressiveness
"Coach (Jim) Ragland is a top-
notch coach Baker added. "We
have been friends a long time and
I know that he'll have his troops
prepared
Other developments that may
affect the Pirate's performance
Saturday:
Junior tailback Willie Lewisand
senior rover Bryan Haywood,
both starters last season, are listed
as questionable for the contest
with the Golden Eagles. Lewis has
a strained groin, and Haywood is
reported to have a slightly
separated shoulder. Also, the

East Carolina Fans hope to see this sight often this week-

(AP) - The question arose on
July 26, when Pete Rozelle sus-

preseason days for violating the
NFL's susbatnee abuse policy for
a second time.
What's the penalty when all it
docs is free Manley from two-a-
day workouts in 90-dcgree heat
and humidity?
We now know the answer.
For just as Manley returns for

cheered his early suspension - the

Vikings have to pick their quarterback
(AP) -Minnesota Vikings quar-
terback Wade Wilson says he will
ask tobe traded if Tommy Kramer
is named to start Sunday's season
opener in Buffalo.
Wilson has been locked in a
battle for the starting position
with Kramer since leading the
Vikings to the National Confer-
ence championship game last
year with stunning playoff upsets
over New Orleans and San Fran-
cisco.
"I'm not conceding anything
Wilson told the St. Paul Pioneer
Press Dispatch in an interview
Tuesday. "But I figure Tommy
will get the nod because that's the
way it's always been around
here
Wilson said he feels insulted,
unappreciated, and most of all,
grossly underpaid by the Vikings.
"1 certainly don't want this to
sound like a case of sour grapes
Wilson told the newspaper.
"Outwardly, I'll remain a nice
company man, but I'm definitely
very disappointed and unhappy
here if I'm just looked at as insur-
ance
Wilson, who has played in 20 of
the last 21 games, will earn
$250,000 this year, roughly 25
percent of the money being paid
to Kramer and backups Steve
Young in San Francisco and Jay
Schroeder in Washington.
At New Orleans, nose tackle
Ted Gregory, in his first newscon-
ference as a member of the Saints,
said the Denver Broncos expected
too much of him too soon and
gave up on him too quickly.
Gregory, the Broncos' No. 1
draft choice this year out of
Syracuse University, was traded
by Denver on Monday for nose
tackle Shawn Knight, the Saints'
No. 1 draft choice a year ago.
"I don't think you can term
someone a bust in just five
weeks Gregory said. "I'm just a
rookie. I've only been in the
league for five weeks and I felt
that these last two weeks I played
pretty well in preseason games,
and I've been coming along with
my professional techniques as far
as playing defensive line Gre-
gory said.
Gregory said the Saints showed
good judgment in acquiring him.
"They know the kind of player I
have the potential of being and
the kind of player I was in col-
lege he said.
Denver officials said they
traded Gregory because he didn't
fit into the Broncos' system.
Many teams began reshuffling
their rosters following Monday's
mandatory reduction to 47. Some
of the players 1st to go almost im-
mediately found themselves with
new addresses, in most of those
cases, with a lesser team.
Pirate's Booty
"1-800-HELP
needs to be reconsidered
BY DOUG JOHNSON
Sport Editor
How many of you out there
have heard or seen the
advertisments for ECU, which at
the end proclaims that anyone
who may be inclined to, or was
pursuaded by the commercial to,
send money to the University or
purchase season tickets may do so
by calling 1-800-HELP ECU. A
show of hands, please.
Well, regardless of whether
you've heard it or not, I'm going
to try an make a point. The point
being, 1 find that ad highly
past couple of years, has I contend, however, that this
undergone a vast transformation, marketing strategy, this 1-800-
degrading, demeaning, and
inappropriate. Please allow me to
elaborate.
East Carolina University, in the
and is still in the process of great
change and improvement. This is
all well and good. As a result of
these changes, there has been a
concentrated effort on the part of
University officials tc up-grade
the image of the University, not
only in how we are viewed by
outside persons and our in-state
constituents, but also in the way
that the staff, faculty, and above
all, the students, view the
University, whose image is a
direct reflection upon themselves.
HELP ECU, is in no way
consistent with the efforts to
better the University's image.
Rather, it would seem that it is the
very antithesis of our collective
efforts. I ask you, do you think
you will ever see an ad that ends
with Call 1-800-HELP UNC?"
Don't be ridiculous, you laugh.
How about one saying Call 1-
800-HELP NCSU?" Give me a
break, you scoff. (Besides, it
would be too many numbers.)
But you get my drift. At a time
when we are struggling for
recognition as one of the top
schools in the East, against
schools much older, more
established, and wrongly, more
respected, this ad deals us a
damaging blow. I mean, begging
for money. Come on folks. Whose
idea was this? If we were an Easter
Seals group, fine. If we were
collecting for the American
Cancer Society, all the better. But
we're not.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not
saying that we don't need
contributions. That would be
ludicrous. But I do believe that we
could effectively pursue the same
end through different means.
Well, Mister I don't-like-it-so-
we-should-change-it, you may be
saying, what do you suggest? I
don't know. I admit it. I'm a
journalist (supposedly), not
marketing director. But give me
time. If I come up with something,
you will be the first to know
Until next time, later.
