Eiy?vear. $5 million research plan
Vital research being conducted at ECU
By BEN SELBY
Stiff Writer
ECU scientists are conduct-
ing some of the most important
environmental research in the
world today. Geologists and bi-
ologists at ECU are actively in-
volved in a five-year, $5 million
study of the second largest estuar-
ine system in the United States.
The Albemarle-Pamlico
Estuarine Study (APES) is a fed-
eral and state funded program
created to study the presence and
degree of nutrients in the sounds
and estuaries of coastal North
Carolina.

On December 3, approxi-
mately 1,700 ECU students will
complete one of the most crucial
steps of their college lives.
The 1988 Summer and Fall
semester candidates will take that
final step called graduation at
Minges Coliseum.
This is the second year the
commencement services have
been held at the fall semester and
will be the 80th commencement
service at ECU.
Chairman of the Commence-
ment Committee C.C. Rowe said,
the commencement service is
held before exams to increase at-
tendance
"We feel that, because of the
holidays, it is better to have the
ceremony before exams instead of
having it in mid-December
Rowe said.
"Everyone who is graduating
is considered a candidate,
whether he officially passes or
fails his exams or meets the re-
quirements for graduation he
said.
He added, "It docs not make
any difference, since thediplomas
are mailed to graduates at the end
of the semester in which they
complete their graduation re-
quirements
Rowe said that the ceremony
will begin at 9:15 a.m with an
ECU band concert.
"We ask the candidates to be
present during the band concert,
in order to begin organizing ev-
eryone Rowe said.
"Because of increased traffic,
candidates should allow addi-
tional time for reaching Minges
Coliseum. The procession will
form at 9:45 a.m and will move
promptly at 10 a.m he said.

Forensic Society beats the odds, headed for
national AFA tournament next semester
By JOE HARRIS
News Editor
In only their second outing,
the ECU Forensic Society, with an
undermanned team, managed to
get into the finals in four events
and bring home a trophy in each.
Because of their performance
at Marshall, the Forensic Society
qualified to participate in the na-
tional tournament given by the
American Forensic Association.
The Forensic Society is a de-
bate team that competes in re-
gional and national tournaments.
The individual debating competi-
tions are: public speaking, oral
interpretation, dramatic speak-
ing, after dinner speaking, prose
and formative and dual speaking.
"We're really enthusiastic
about qualifing for the tourna-
ment said Mary Harrison, presi-
dent. "It usually takes a while for
a team to become established and
run smoothly. Placing and quali-
fying on our second outing, with
only four people, really says a lot
about this team
The four-person team trav-
eled to Marshall University in
Huntington, W.Va to compete
against 18 other schools in a re-
gional tournament.
"The competition was very
intense Ms. Harrison said. "The
18 schools we faced probably try
and compete every weekend. This
is our second competition.
"The fact that we made it past
the first round is incredible
"Some schools brought any-
where from 10 to 40 people to
compete said Ms. Harrison. We
have 15 members on this year's
team (last year's had 5), but all of
them couldn't make the trip for
various reasons
Ms. Harrison explained that

East Carolina University has
launched national searches for
candidates to succeed two vet-
eran vice chancellors in high uni-
versity administrative posts.
Clifton G. Moore, vice chan-
cellor for business affairs, and Dr.
William E. Laupus, vice chancel-
lor for health sciences, have an-
nounced plans to retire at the end
of the current academic year.
Laupus earlier this year relin-
quished his post as dean of the
School of Medicine.
Dr. Richard R. Eakin, ECU
chancellor, has appointed search
committees which will advertise
nationally, screen candidates and
recommend three candidates,
unranked, for on-campus inter-
views next March. Eakin said he
hopes the searches can be con-
cluded by mid-April and that the
new officials will assume duties
by July 1.
Richard A. Edwards, execu-
tive assistant to the chancellor,
will chair the search committee
for vice chancellor-business af-
fairs. Dr. Ronald Thiele, dean of
the School of Allied Health Sci-
ences, will chair the committee to
recommend candidates for vice
chancellor for health sciences.
Serving with Edwards will be

South Carolinians cross border
for confidential AIDS testing
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -
Some South Carolina residents
are traveling to North Carolina to
be tested for AIDS, where they can
undergo the test with anonymity.
Since 1986, South Carolina
has required names of those tak-
ing AIDS tests at county health
departments. At North Carolina's
health departments, most testing
is anonymous, with participants
identified by number.
David Jones, coordinator of
the Durham-based North Caro-
lina AIDS Service Coalition, says
health officials do not have "any
firm numbers" of South Carolini-
ans being tested for AIDS across
the border. "But they are he
says.
South Carolina is one of at
least 16 states with confidential
testing - where names are re-
corded but kept private.
South Carolina AIDS pro-
gram director Lynda Kettinger
says having names has enabled
health officials to trace drug and
sex partners of infected people.
"There's been no break to date in
the health department's system of
confidentiality she says.
Still, callers seeking testing
information from the Columbia,
S.Cbased Palmetto AIDS Life
Support Services are often
pointed toward North Carolina or
Georgia for anonymous testing.
The Charlotte Observer reported
Sunday.
And in Charlotte, safe-sex
brochures distributed by First
Tuesday, a gay and lesbian politi-
cal action group, also advise
South Carolina residents to travel
to North Carolina for testing.
Of 45 patients seeking serv-
ices from PALSS as of last May, 33
were tested for AIDS at locations
other than South Carolina health
departments, largely because
they didn't want to provide their
names, says i'ALSS Executive
Director Bill Edens. Eighteen of
those were tested out of state.
The differing philosophies
reflect a debate that has taken
place from international AIDS
conferences to the Mecklenburg
County commissioners, who last
week suggested ending North
Carolina's vmous AIDS test-
ing.
Comr uers said having
names Cbuk help them track
down those infected with the
AIDS virus and their partners.
Other sa v requiring names could
drive away those at the highest
risk for the disease and expose
victims to loss of jobs and homes.
"There's merit on both sides
of this issue said Dr. Steve
Keener, Mecklenburg's assistant
health director for disease control.
"We're not in disagreement at all
with the way the state is doing it

VIENNA, Austria (AP) -
Saudi Arabia's proposal to lower
the benchmark pnee oi crude oil
from SIS to SI5 a barrel threatens
a tenative accord aimed at reduc-
points to be worked out.
Aghazadeh, who flew to
Tehran on Friday, had by that
time announced his
government's acceptance of the

Late Sundav, Nazer appeared
in the lobby o( the luxury hotel
where most of the OPEC delega-
up prices.
Saudi Arabia's oil minister,
Hisham Nazer, said late Sundav
the proposal was designed to
prevent prices from falling below
$15. But other ministers fear that a
minimum price could become the
ceiling price.
The Organization of Petro
tions are staving.
"All we intend is the preven-
tion of the deterioration of the
price below $15 he said. "What
we wanted is even to eliminate a

Each $1 nse in the price of
crude oil theoretically means a
pickup of 2.5 cents a gallon in
retail gasoline prices, although oil
companies do not always pass
along the full increase.
The ministers had been
scheduled to resume their formal
discussions Sunday, but they
were postponed until today.
A senior Iranian delegate to
the conference, Feredoon Barke-
shli, said the Saudi plan "is a

Oil prices rose Friday on
word that OPEC reached a tenta-

The accord would reduce the
cartel's output from the current
estimated 22.5 million barrels a
dav to 18.5 million barrels a day.
Within that total, each country
would be given a production
quota, or ceiling.
The idea is to trim produc-
tion, dry up the glut on the market
and lift weak prices. If countries
stick to their quotas, Nazer said,
prices could climb beyond $18 a
barrel.

VIENNA, Austria (AP) -
Saudi Arabia's proposal to lower
the benchmark price of crude oil
from $18 to $15 a barrel threatens
a tenative accord aimed at reduc-
ing the world oil glut and driving
up prices.
Saudi Arabia's oil minister,
Hisham Nazer, said late Sunday
the proposal was designed to
prevent prices from falling below
$15. But other ministers fear that a
minimum price could become the
ceiling price.
The Organization of Petro-
leum Exporting Countries cur-
rently maintains a benchmark of
$18 a barrel, but prices recently
have been running at $14 or less.
Each $1 rise in the price of
crude oil theoretically means a
pickup of 2.5 cents a gallon in
retail gasoline prices, although oil
companies do not always pass
along the full increase.
The ministers had been
scheduled to resume their formal
discussions Sunday, but they
were postponed until today.
A senior Iranian delegate to
the conference, Feredoon Barke-
shli, said the Saudi plan "is a
major divergence from OPEC
resolutions so far" and "can to-
tally sabotage the agreement
"Iran is not going to accept
this type of idea he said. Barke-
shli said that among OPEC's 13
members, Algeria, Nigeria and
Libya also oppose changing the
$18 benchmark. Venezuelan Oil
Minister Julio Cesar Gil said his
country favors maintaining the
$18 price.
Barkeshli said the Iranian oil
minister, Gholamreza
Aghazadeh, had agreed to a tenta-
tive proposal that kept the bench-
mark at $18.
The dispute surfaced Sunday
morning when Barkeshli told
reporters there were still some
points to be worked out.
Aghazadeh, who flew to
Tehran on Friday, had by that
time announced his
government's acceptance of the
plan.
Late Sunday, Nazer appeared
in the lobby of the luxury hotel
where most of the OPEC delega-
tions are staying.
"All we intend is the preven-
tion of the deterioration of the
price below $15 he said. "What
we wanted is even to eliminate a
reference to the $18, just in case
the price might even go beyond
$18
Oil prices rose Friday on
word that OPEC reached a tenta-
tive production pact.
The accord would reduce the
cartel's output from the current
estimated 22.5 million barrels a
day to 18.5 million barrels a day.
Within that total, each country
would be given a production
quota, or ceiling.
The idea is to trim produc-
tion, dry up the glut on the market
and lift weak prices. If countries
stick to their quotas, Nazer said,
prices could climb beyond $18 a
barrel.
Nazer insisted he would not
back down. Asked if he would
remain firm even at the risk of
scuttling an agreement, he re-
plied, "Well, that depends on
them
Iraq wants additional reve-
nues to rebuild their economies,
which were badly damaged in
their eight-year war. They agreed
to an August cease-fire.
Under the new agreement,
Iran and Iraq each would get the
same quota of 2.64 million barrels
a day.
The issue of parity had been a
sticking point in discussions of
the cartel's winter meeting, which
began Nov. 21.

Although George Bush made

Athough Dole talked with
Bush briefly after being over-

The vice president has said he
will consider putting the rest of
his defense team together this
week. He also promised to give
prompt attention to deficit reduc-

The vice president still has
not named a defense secretary.

However, Bush has empha-
sized that the decision will be his

The vice president also was
expected to fill the job of com-

Plusminus system good
To the editor:
The proposal of adding s to
the grading system has incensed
many students. I have a suggestion
that might soothe some of the flames.
The specific problem I'm ad-
dressing is that the proposed system
would be unfair to students with
GPA's above 3.5. This is because the
bottom of the A range (the range into
which a student has to score to get a
4.0 GP) will be raised to accommo-
da te the A- (3.7 GP). Thus, A students
will have to score higher in order to
maintain their GPAs. Other students
will be helped about as much as they
will be hurt, but A students will only
be hurt.
One suggestion is to establish an
A and assign to it a GP around 4.25,
but this has many drawbacks. ECU
would no longer have a 4.0 grading
scale, but a 4.25 one. The 4.0 is sup-
posed fc?be the atwohito, perfect"
GPA, But' un&er' Ihi'I' SysTem, If"
wouldn't be that big of a deal. The
purpose of adding precision to the
grading system is to increase the
value of ECU's diplomas, and
thereby raise the university's pres-
tige. The 4.25 scale would defeat that
purpose because it is looked upon
unfavorably by mainstream acade-
mia and many potential employers.
A modification of this that I find
somewhat more acceptable is to use
A's (at 4.25) in determining GPA's
but to record overall GPA's above 4.0
as 4.0 (and thus, "hide" the 4.25 sys-
tem). But this system would make the
higher GPA's, especially the 4.0,
much easier to attain, and therefore
deflate their value.
My proposal is to drop the A
Granted, this would remove some of
the precision from the top portion of
the scale, but is it really necessary to
distinguish between marginal A's
and solid ones?
Leaving out the As will reduce
the chanc - of the overall GPA of the
university falling, as happened at
NCSU and the University of South
Carolina. In addition, it will keep the
number of A students at about the
same level it is now, which is about
where it should be. For if ECU allows
its number of A students to drop, that
will mean fewer ECU graduates will
get the really competitive jobs or get
into the quality graduate programs,
which means lower prestige for ECU.
The - system, with the A- in-
tact, would be a great solution, if only
ECU had a problem with having too
many A students. Dropping the As
is a good solution ? and it definitely
has a problem.

like to congratulate The East
Carolinian for getting yet another
name wrong on the front page.
Having worked for The East Caro-
linian for over a semester and cur-
rently being the editor for the Honors
Program's newsletter, Honorable
Mentions, I understand that journal-
ists keep horrible hours, often work-
ing until three or four o'clock in the
morning. Under such circumstances,
mistakes are bound to be made.
Imagine T-ty surprise, however,
when I glance I at the front page story
in Tuesday's November 22) paper
about the grading policy only to find
my name, not just spelled incorrectly,
but completely, utterly wrong.
Imagine my disappointment
when I looked at the by-line and saw,
not a novice journalist, but joe Harris,
the News Editor, had written the
story, I worked in joe's department
for two months and thought he had a
great deal of potential as a journalist.
Of course, mistaking "Holder"
for "Mason" may not be of Earth-
shattering importance; after all we
are talking of one student at a small
university in eastern North Carolina.

Democratic Congress defies Republicans
By SIMON LAZARUS
The New Republic
A major reason why Lloyd Bentsen's debate
performance stood out so sharply from that of the
other three contestants on the campaign trail was
that he seemed not only to know the issues, but
actually to be doing something about them. On item
after item, the message was the same: Bentsen has
"passed" a historic international trade bill and the
most important welfare reform "in our history he
had played a "major role" in important environ-
mental legislation; he had directly pressured the
prime minister of japan to cut trade barriers and to
shoulder a fair burden of the cost of defending the
Far East.
Implicit in this message was a further point: Not
only is Lloyd Bentsen one of those who run Con-
gress, but it isCongress not the White House - that
runs the government the way the people want it run.
And indeed, although Ronald Reagan is one of
the most popular presidents in recent history, he will
leave office as one of the least effective. Reagan
remains king, but on issues such as international
trade, environmental protection, education, health,
ethics in government, even civil rights, the parlia-
ment has come to rule. And despite the fact that the
Democrats in the 100th Congress lacked a single,
charismatic leader to serve as a de facto prime min-
ister, our de facto parliament was increasingly able
to impose the kind of activist policies that the public
seems to demand.
With its last-minute surge of major legislation,
the 100th Congress startled the national press. But in
fact the achievements of October 1988 simply
capped a long-running trend. Immediately after
Reagan attained his initial success in changing fed-
eral priorities with bigger defense budgets, lower
domestic expenditures and lower taxes, he began to
cede power to Congress. At the same time, he found
himilf obliged to accept agency heads who were
not in sympathy with his philosophical instincts.
Reagan's power began to deteriorate in March
1983, when Eilliam Ruckelshaus replaced Anne
Gorsuch Burford as head of the Environmental
Protection Agency. Burford was sacrificed for doing
precisely what the president had sent her to EPA to
do-initiate a radically new regime in which environ-
mental protection was left largely to market forces
and voluntarism. Once alerted, the public re-
sponded with a rare "firestorm" of disapproval. The
firestorm could be quelled only by the selection of a
Ruckelshaus, known not only as a strict environ-
mental enforcer but as the man who had refused a
decade earlier to knuckle under to Richard Nixon
over Watergate. Ruckelshaus turned EPA back
toward the center and the agency stayed essentially
out of Reagan's control for the duration of his ad-
ministration.
Repeatedly, and out-gunned President Reagan
has had to decide whether to fight over particular
rontroversies and face certain defeat, retire to the
sidelines, or claim victory when in fact his own
preferences were being overridden. An early ex-
ample of the last scenario was the Tax Equity and
Fiscal Reform Act of 1982. Bob Dole, then chairman
of the Senate Finance Committee, pushed through a
raft of Democrat-originated loophole-closers to cut
the deficit by $50 billion at the expense of the
wealthy, and left the president little choice but to
embrace the tax reform bill as his own. The same
year, Dole forced the White House to accept an
extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act without
weakening amendments.
Indeed, it was during this early period, when
Reagan still retained his overall dominance, that he
began to display his talent for what is known in
Washington as eating dirt and calling it ice cream
one of the skills that has enabled him to play so well
the role of ceremonial monarch. Some would con-
sider a more dramatic example his signing of an
arms control treaty opposed by his erstwhile conser-
vative allies, and his subsequent rush to proclaim an
era of unprecedented U.SSoviet comity.
On many of the major economic policy decisions
made during the Reagan reign, especially in its
second term, the White House has not even been a
major player. The trade bill was forced on the ad-
ministration by the Senate Finance and House Ways
and Means committees. The AT&T divestiture hap-
pened with no White House participation. The
multibillion dollar omnibus drug and AIDS bills
passed during the last week of this session were pure
congressional artifacts. Even tax reform owes more
to Bill Bradley and bureaucrats at the Treasury and
on congressional tax committee staffs than to Ronald
Reagan, who was startled to learn (after it had
reached his desk) that it would raise taxes paid by
many large corporations.
The same pattern has been evident in non-eco-
nomic fields: Reagan challenged the constitutional-
ity of the independent counsel law and complained
about the damage it did to the careers of his close
adivisers, but he impotently signed the bill rather
than face a certain veto override. And then, of
course, when he did choose to "be Reagan" and
recommend Robert Bork for the Supreme Court,
Reagan suffered the most humiliating judicial nomi-
nation defeat in history.
But despite the Bork defeat, Iran-contra and
other lesser setbacks, Reagan's magic "Teflon" has
stayed unscratched; repudiation of the president's
policies has not led to rejection of the man as presi-
dent.
And that, of course, could well have been the
nub of Michael Dukakis's problem. The public maj
have grown too comfortable with having a graceful
and likable monarch who has little to do with the real
business of government, while an activist Congress
keeps the ship of state in the mainstream and meeto
our national needs. That may help explain why, foi
all the support his domestic policy views seemed t?
enjoy, Dukakis failed to persuaae a majority that a
Democratic hands-on CEO was needed in the White
House to make those views prevail.
Perhaps Lloyd Bentsen's Congress has done lfc
work too well.

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
NOVEMBER 29,1988 5
Black vote was won on the radio
RALEIGH (AD - Armed with
a controversial series of commer-
cials on black-oriented radio sta-
tions last summer, Gov. Jim Mar-
tin let Democrats know they
wouldn't be able to rely on sup-
port from the state's black voters
without a tight.
"What it did was prove to the
black community, and the Demo-
cratic Party, that the Jim Martin
campaign was going to compete
for the black voter this time
Martin campaign manager Kevin
Brown told the Greensboro News
& Record. "We were not writing
off the black vote
Early indications shows that
Martin's efforts might have had
some success. Post-election tele-
vision network exit polls sug-
gested the incumbent Republican
received up to 18 percent of the
black vote ? very good for Re-
publican candidates, who usually
win no more than about 10 per-
cent. But other estimates have
been in the 10 percent range.
But State Rep. H.M. 'Mickey'
Michaux, D-Durham, one of the
state's leading black politicians,
said he has long doubted claims
he's heard of black support for
Martin.
"1 just don't see it. I don't
know how Martin can get over 10
percent he said.
"He made a lot of radio sta-
tions happy, but he didn't court
the black voter personally
Michaux said. And they laid no
claim to the fact that they had a
black on the ticket Michaux was
refering to Ed Garner, the Repub-
lican candidate for state auditor.
A look at largely black pre-
cincts in the state's largest coun-
ties and the four counties where
the majority of registered voters
are black shows Martin won
about 10 percent of the black vote.
But Brown said he thinks Martin
did better.
"I think that we did get a
stronger black vote than Republi-
cans generally get he said.
Brown said looking at voting
returns in largely black precincts
doesn't account for the votes from
a cross-section of the black com-
munity ? covering all economic
and social levels.
He said Martin reached out to
black voters. He has chaired the
United Negro College Fund cam-
paign in the state and exceeded
previous administrations in hir-
ing blacks. Also, seven of the nine
divisions of state government
Martin oversees exceeded a goal
set to make 4 percent of total pur-
chases from firms controlled bv
minorities, women or disabled
persons.
In Guilford County, Martin
captured 9 percent of the vote in a
dozen largely black precincts.
In Durham County, Martin
drew 15 percent of the support.
Martin's share of support in
largely black precincts in Forsyth,
Mecklenburg and Wake counties
didn't exceed 10 percent.
In Bertie County, where
blacks make up 57 percent of the
voters, Democrat Bob Jordan got
66 percent of the vote. In Hertford
County, where blacks account for
56 percent of the voters, Jordan
received 65 percent of the vote.
In Northamption County,
where blacks make up 58 percent,
of the registered voters, Jordan
received 69 percent of the vote
and in Warren County, where
blacks are 58 percent of the regis-
tered voters, Jordan received 68
percent of the vote.
Jordan campaigned
extensively in the black commu-
nity, advertising on black-ori-
ented radio stations, in black-
owned newspapers and appeared
with black leaders.
Martin's campaign staff in-
cluded a five-person division
aimed at building support in the
black communitv. It also had a a
coordinator and four field work-
ers who tried to build support in
churches, fraternal organizations
and civic groups.
The effort also included hir-
ing a Baton Rouge, La firm that
specializes in helping Republican
candidates appeal to black voters.
Martin's campaign finance
report says The Nathan Group
was paid $18,000 for help in de-
veloping and producing a radio
campaign aimed at black voters.
The report did not break out how
much money was spent on buy-
ing commerciais on black ori-
ented radio stations.
Bethel Nathan, co-founder
and vice president of The Nathan
Group, said his firm's work for
Martin succeeded ? if not
through more votes, through
forcing Jordan to spend more time
and crucial campaign dollars to
answer Martin's efforts and
charges.
Nathan points particularly to
a controversial radio ad he pro-
duced for Martin that aired last
August.
It cited Jordan's refusal to
serve on the governor's Martin
Luther King commission and
questioned Jordan's support for
the dead civil rights leader.
The commercial was ironic
since it was Martin who opposed
making King's birthday a state
holiday and Jordan who was
strong in his support for it. The ad
was roundly criticized by black
leaders around the state.
"It neutralized and threw his
(Jordan's) campaign in an up-
roar Nathan said.
"It's not so much that Martin
got the black vote as he disrupted
the Jordan campaign Nathan
said. "Jordan had to go back and
shore up his base ? a base that he
would have normally taken for
granted

East's widow suffers another
setback in inheritance lawsuit
Coupon Service Specials
BALTIMORE (AD - A ruling
that blocks the widow of Sen. John
East trom divulging the contents
of four medical documents that
wore given to her mistakenly is
only a minor setack in her $10
million wrongful death lawsuit,
her lawyer says.
"It really doesn't affect our
case attornev James Hounhan
told The News and Observer of
Raleigh He said he expects to
bring his case against the federal
government to trial next year.
East, a Republican elected to
the Senate in 1980, committed
suicide at his Greenville, N.C,
no me in June 19S6.
Mrs. East originally sought
$3.5 million from the federal gov-
ernment in an administrative
claim that was rejected.
She filed the suit a year ago,
claiming that doctors at Bethesda
Naval Hospital repeatedly failed
to diagnose the senator's hypo
thvroidism, a severe thyroid mal-
function that can cause depres-
sion, despite several symptoms
that should have alerted them.
Mrs. East's lawsuit says the
.tors' negligence led to emo-
tional and physical injuries that
"directly caused" East's death.
Lawyers in the U.S.
Attorney's office in Baltimore,
where the suit was filed, are de-
fending the government.
The suit already has raised
questions about the quality of care
at Bethesda Naval Hospital,
where members of Congress and
other top government officials
often are treated. In a 1987 letter.
Hourihan urged Navy officials to
settle out of court, warning: "The
Navy can ill afford the significant
bad publicity regarding its medi-
cal facilities, which this case is
certain to generate
In preparing the suit, Mrs.
East's lawyers in 1987 filed a re-
quest under the Freedom of Infor-
mation Act with Navy officials,
seeking documents regarding the
senator's treatment at Bethesda.

Five dead, hundreds injured
as tornadoes rip Raleigh
RALEIGH (AP) - Five people
.lied and at least 100 others were
injured when tornadoes de-
stroyed housesand mobile homes
and flattened apartment build-
ings in eastern North Carolina
early Monday, authorities said.
Three people, including an
11-year-old boy, died in Wake
County which contains Raleigh.
Two deaths were reported in
ash County, said Al Warlick of
the N.C. Department of Crime
Control and Public Safety. He did
not know further details.
Raleigh City Manager
i Vmpsey Benton Ir. said at least
62 people were taken to local
hospitals, and three of those
people required surgery. Forty-
tour houses were damaged, and
nine more were destroyed, he
said.
'These numbers are being
tpdated and we expect signifi-
arttly higher numbers when the
isscssment is completed Ben-
ton said.
He said the tornado hit the
apital city at about 1:15 a.m. City
I uses transported more than 300
eople to two shelters.
"To our knowledge, all
I eople have been accounted for
-aid Benton, adding that police
irtd rescue personnel were out
routing for problems. There was
an unconfirmed report of looting,
said Police Chief Fred Heineman,
it he wouldn't say where.
Four three-story apartment
i liildings in the Cooper's Pond
arrment complex in Raleigh
ere flattened and numerous
v thers suffered structural dam-
ages, said Deirdre Boiling, man-
ager of the complex.
No one in those buildings was
seriously hurt, Mrs. Boiling said.
The first rescue workers on the
scene there pulled people from
third-floor windows. Several rcsi-
J.L'iits wandered around dazed,
?.ith visible cuts. One man was
clad only in a bath towel.
"A couple of people were
rushed off to the hospital, but I
don't think they were hurt very
badly Ms. Boiling said. "We
didn't lose anybody. We feel re-
ally lucky about that
Residents were given tempo-
rary lodging at nearby hotels,
Mrs. Boiling said. Some residents
were planning to find shelters
that were being opened at area
schools.
Lisa Panier, who works and
lives at the complex, said her
building was untouched and that
she did not realize the tornado
had struck until a neighbor tele-
phoned.
"The thunder woke me up,
and 1 heard an extremely loud
roar Miss Lanier said. "It was
like a train, like you hear people
say. It was like a jet coming down
too low
The roar lasted 30 to 45 sec-
onds and then the wind died
down. "1 went back to bed be-
cause 1 didn't know what had
happened she said. "If I ever
hear that noise again, I'll dive for
the bathtub
Sonia Jones, assistant man
ager of the complex, said her
building also was spared major
damage but had some minor
damage, including blown-out
windows.
"It passed right by me she
said, "I was real lucky
Officer B.R. Baucon with the
Wake County sheriff's depart-
ment said about 300 officers were
checking the area for damage.
A spokesman for the Nash
County sheriff's department said
at least 20 residents of that county-
were brought to two hospitals in
Rocky Mount.
The two tornado victims in
Nash County were in separate
mobile homes that were de-
stroyed, authorities said. At least
two houses in the county also
were destroyed.
Freddy Leonard, mayor and
fire chief of the Nash County town
of Castalia, said he had received a
report of a pickup truck lodged in
a tree.
"It's terrible, and there's an
extensive amount of damage
Leonard said. "I'm fearful that we
may still find further (damage)
once it gets daylight
In neighboring Franklin
County, about 25 people were
injured, said Sheriff Arthur E.
Johnson.
"We've had churches that
have been demolished, some
trailers and some homes said
Johnson, who added that Red
Cross personnel were on their
way to the county.
The tornadoes and storms
appeared to hit hardest in parts of
Wake, Nash and Franklin coun-
ties, and power outages were
rampant. In north Raleigh, a K-
Mart department store was flat-
tened, and one person was
trapped inside, according to Sgt.
ID. Everett of the Raleigh Police
Department.
The man inside the store later
was freed, but he suffered a bro-
ken leg, said Robert Whittington,
an assistant Raleigh fire chief.
At least two other people
were injured near the store, Ever-
ett said, adding that he did not
know the extent of the injuries.
Bricks, cinder blocks and
twisted steel girders lay in a heap
with racks of clothing and other
merchandise. The shopping cen-
ter parking lot was filled with
police, sheriff's vehicles, and res-
cue vehicles.
Everett and other officers
hastily dispatched many of them
to surrounding neighborhoods
and other shopping centers to
look for people in need of help
and to prevent looting.
"I bet we've got extensive
damage all over the area Everet
said. "We do have some extensive
injuries, but I can't tell you how
many or who they are
At least two shelters had been
opened for people whose homes
were damaged, one at an elemen-
tary school and a park in North
Raleigh, Everett said.
There appeared to be several
tornadoes that occurred said Joe
Pehha meteorologist with the
National Weather Service.

Soviet reforms in danger
MOSCOW (AP) ? Soviet
President Mikhail Gorbachev
said ethnic strife is threatening his
program of economic and social
reforms, and he said restructuring
is the cure for the violence, not the
cause.
Gorbachev was reacting to a
wave of nationalist unrest that has
swept across the country from the
Baltic republics in the northwest
to the Caucasus in the southwest.
He said in a speech broadcast
on state television Sunday that
"attempts are being made to
kindle dislike in the interethnic
sphere
"This would be disastrous, it
would put perestroika in
jeopardy he said, referring to his
reform campaign. It would even
make some people think that it is,
perhaps, perestroika that is to
blame for all that
He said his policy of opening
up information and opinion is the
solution to ethnic tension, which
exists in many of "the 15 Soviet
republics.
Gorbachev's remarks come
during violent tensions between
the neighboring southern repub-
lics of Armenia and Azerbaijan
and during demands for in-
creased autonomy in the Baltic
republics of Estonia, Latvia and
Lithuania.
He made his speech Saturday
before the Presidium of the Su-
preme Soviet, the nation's top ex-
ecutive bodv.
Saturday's session of the Pre-
sidum struck down an Estonian
declaration of limited sovereignty
made earlier this month, official
media reported. Estonia declared
then that it had the right to veto
Soviet laws.
Official media said Gor-
bachev acknowledged before the
Presidium that national constitu-
tional amendments he has pro-
posed may have angered Estoni-
ans and others by curtailing local
rule.
But his remarks Saturday also
carried a veiled warning. "I must
say we receive a great number of
letters frrjTtrwotWng petfpto ttr
unrest.
every republic with remarks that
we are at times too tolerant with
regard to extremists Gorbachev
said.
In Azerbaijan on Sunday, two
Communist Party officials were
reported fired.
Soviet newspapers charged
that local authorities were not
helping soldiers halt the ethnic
violence in the republic.
Rallies of up to 500,000 people
were reported Sunday in Baku,
the troops trying to keep the
clashing Azerbaijanis and Arme-
nians apart in the Azerbaijani city
of Kirovabad.
At least seven people were
killed and 160 injured in Kirov-
abad in last week's violence be-
tween the mainly Christian Ar-
menians and Moslem Azer-
baijanis, reports have said.
A duty officer at the Azer-
baijani Communist Partv head-
quarters in the ci ty of Baku denied
charges that local authorities
were not helping the military
quell the violence, saying "The
party is in control He refused to
give his name.
Ethnic fighting between Az-
erbaijanis and Armenians first
began in February and culmi-
nated in last week's massive dem-
onstrations.
The Armenians, who domi-
nate the Nagorno-Karabakh re-
gion of Azerbaijan, are demand-
ing that it be annexed to neighbor-
ing Armenia.
Tass reported Sunday that
building materials were being
removed from a construction site
for an Armenian workshop and
recreation center in Azerbaijan's
Topkhan Natural Preserve. The
official news agency said the con-
struction of the center at an Arme-
nian-controlled aluminum fac-
tory contributed to last week's

Religion a neglected subject, may
be added to school curriculums
RALEIGH (AP) - Religion is
neglected as a subject in North
Carolina classrooms, and that
void is depriving students of
other knowledge, including the
history, literature and art of other
countries, a report says.
Religion rarely surfaces in the
state's social studies curriculum
or textbooks, and it probably
hasn't for at least a generation, a
10-member committee of the state
Board of Education says.
Students cannot fully under-
stand Western history, the abor-
tion debate or turmoil in the
Middle East without knowing
about Judaism, Christianity, Is-
lam and Catholicism, the
committee's report says.
"We believe strongly that the
current situation only prolongs
existing ignorance, confusion and
prejudice the committee says in
a nine-page report that it will
present to the state Board or Edu-
cation on Wednesday. "We need
better textbooks, better educated
teachers, and a more informed
citizenry "
The committee appointed by
the txard and chaired by Burton
E, Beers, an N.C State University
history professor - recommends
that the state train teachers how to
teach the ro'e or major religions in
history, geography and econom-
ics courses.
It also recommends that the
state examine whether religion is
neglected in other subjects such as
literature and biology and that
publishers be urged to include
more about religion in textbooks.
"There were no substantive

percent of those surveyed would cannot promote religion without
not oppose teaching about major violating the First Amendment.
Because of that potential, the
committee recommends that
, teachers be informed about the
lZ m P e&1 constraints on religious in-
struction and that such lessons
focus on older, more mature and
less impressionable students.
Many teachers also need to learn
more about religon, said John D.
Ellington, member of the commit-
tee and director of the state De-
partment of Public Instruction's
social studies division.
But, like Ms. Rosenthal, the
committee expressed fears that
not all teachers would under-

should be taught throughout the

school grades the committee's
report says. IX'tails would be left
to state curriculum specialists, but
the report provides some ex-
amples of how religion could be
infused into history courses.
In American history, for ex-

dents could be taught the role of
holy men among Indians, the in-

RALEIGH (AP) Through
what has become known as "soft"
money, political parties raised
millions of dollars this year that
they tunneled into local commit
tees-set up to help get-out4he
vote efforts and other campaign
activities.
'The money was a very sig-
nificant part of the campaign in
the state' state Sen Larry Cobb,
R-Mecklenburg, toiti TheGra ns-
boro News & Record.
In contributing money to po-
litical parties, North Carolinian?
joined something of a national
trend this year, marking a resur-
gence in the large campaign con-
tributions that had faded from the
U.S. political scene after the 1972
Watergate scandals.
While federal and state laws
limi t the amount of m ney donors
can give to candidates or political
action committees, there are no
limits on the amount of money
that can be given to national po-
litical parties.

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
NOVEMBER 29,18
Organizations unite to fight rape
(CPS) ? Students of the left-
wing United Progressives at the
University of Illinois don't have
much in common with the
campus's greeks, an 1 the two
groups often find themselves on
opposite sides of issues.
'They're our rivals noted
Jane Brouwer, president of Ul's
Panhellenic Council.
But now the Panhellenic
Council, Brouwer said, has been
mobilized and galvanized,
marching and working with radi-
cals and moderates, by a tragic
series of 15 unsolved rapes near
the Urbana-Champaign campus.
And it's happening else-
where: in early November in
Providence, R.I Brown Univer-
sity women rallied in the wake of
two near-campus rapes, sharing
horror stories of their own sexual
abuse and demanding more pro-
tection.
Angry students have rallied
against rape ? and for better
campus security ? at Northwest
Missouri State, Millersville State
in Pennsvlvania, Yale and the
University of Pennsylvania,
among others, this fall.
Perhaps even more signifi-
cantly, the participants are mak-
ing barelv veiled promises to be
more militant in fighting campus
crime.
At Brown, for instance, stu-
dent Both Bird vowed to form a
"counter-terrorist" group to re-
taliate against men who try to
assault women.

Spray-painted anti-rape graffiti
on two fraternity houses on a
street where a rape was reported
last fall. When MankatoStateoffi-
cials tried to solve budget prob-
lems by cutting a Sexual Assault

students protested, noting there
had been a record number of stu-
dent sexual assault reports in
September.

coming more assertive of their
rights, and demanding greater
protection from colleges and uni-

Students have been holding
anti-rape vigils and marches for
vears, of course, but this fall's ef-
forts have been bigger, angrier,
more emotional, laced with those
allusions to "counter terrorism"
and joined, at last, by groups that
While most of the fall's
marches were provoked by recent

there is good reason for ongoing
concern.
American Colleges. "Rape is not a
rare occurrence. Every woman
has a fear of rape. You can't walk
across a campus at night without
the fear of being raped
But while student concern
about burglaries, muggings and
assaults is usually articulated by
demands for more police and
better campus security, the new
anti-rape coalitions at many
schools are targeting the sexism
they say pervades their campuses
and allows rape to exist.
"Everyone has worked so
hard to get into this school said
Brouwer. "It's a slap in the face
when we can't walk across cam-
pus, especially when we proved

But the women's movement
has taught women to speak up

which may be why sexual assaults
are down. "Some things that were

rill noted.

grads.
The results, tabulated from
exit polls conducted by the NBC,
ABC and CBS television net-
works, did not distinguish be-
tween college students and other
voters younger than age 25.
ABC News found Dukakis
won a majority of the votes cast by
both the youngest (under the age
of 25) and oldest (over the age of
60) citizens, while winning 51
percent of those cast by people
with only a high school diploma
and 62 percent of the nation's high
school dropouts.
New voters ? typically those
who have turned 18 since the 1984
presidential election ? preferred
Bush instead of Dukakis by a 50-
47 percent margin.
Young voters, said CBS politi-
cal editor Dotty Lynch, were con-
spicuous by their absence at the
polls. Voters younger than age 30
made up only 20 percent of the
electorate Nov. 8, down from 24
percent in 1984.
In both 1980 and 1984, poll-
sters concluded a majority of the
college students who voted en-
dorsed Ronald Reagan. The re-
sults were widely interpreted as a
nationwide swing to the right on
campuses.
More unscientific mock elec-
tions conducted on hundreds of
campuses this fall, moreover,
suggested students favored the
Republican this time around, too.
At Stephens College in Mis-
souri, for example. Bush received
221 votes while Dukakis picked
up 176.
Morris the Cat and Mickey
Mouse each received one vote.
"I don't feel like Dukakis and
Bentsen know what they are
doing said Erin Malone, a
Democrat who said she voted for
Bush.
At Virginia's George Mason
University, the Republican ticket
was chosen by almost twice as
manv students as the Democrats.
J
Bush received 51 percent of the
vote during George Mason's
mock election, while Dukakis got
33 percent. A large number of
George Mason students ? 16
percent ? were undecided.
Bush also won mock elections

picture-perfect college
the beautiful coed and the
of the football team. When the
ear old Babs is asked what her
?jor is, she replies, "Gavin and
me.
In the beginning, the Ghost
doesn't let the fame and stardom
go to his head. He challenges a
former black football star, simply
known as "Blue to a foot race
just to see it he is as good as every-
one thinks he is. The race ends in
a tie, but Gavin is proclaimed the
winner by his buddies.
Timothy 1 lut ton gives a notable
performance as the Ghost's
nephew C ake, who receives rec-
ognition just tor being related to
the football star. He worships the
(.host while in college at I.U (a
takeoff ot LSU), but loses respect
tor him as they grow older.
( ake spends most of his time
lurking in his uncle's shadow and
falling in love with Babs. In one
scene, Babs unites Cake to go
skinny dipping with her (a nude
lessica Lange that is) to which he
complies
As expected, the Ghost and
Babs get married and he is drafted
for the Washington Redskins af-
ter graduation. The Ghost be-
comes a star wideout for the Re-
dskins and he plays with the team
for most of his pro career. Babs
stays at home and becomes preg-
nant, again, again, and again. The
two of them invest their football
money into a local bar in Louisi-
ana, which proves to be a flop.
Babs is an interesting character
because she evolves from the
dizzy blonde teenager into a
shrewd business woman when
becoming manager of the failing
bar.
She starts to spend more time
with Cake while the Ghost is
away playing football, and the
two have an expected affair.
Somehow the Ghost forgets there
is more to life than football and he
starts to neglect his family and
devotes all his time to the game.
Towards the end of Grey's car-
reer, the Redskins retire his jersey
at a fairly early age. Ghost has a
lot of time on his hands after retir-
ing and he fills the empty hours
by drinking at the bar and telling
football stories to his local fans.
He becomes very unhappy with-
out football and makes the grave
mistake of trying to go back to the
game playing for the Denver
Broncos.
The Ghost doesn't last too long
with the Broncos-he seems to
have lost his touch - and winds up
being benched for the remainder
of the season. Frustrated and un-
happy, he walks away from foot-
ball forever, but he still can't seem
to leave it behind him.
The unusual character of Blue is
the one who makes the Ghost
realize that he has forgotten what
is most important in life. While he
was playing for the Redskins he
tried to get Blue a contract with
them but he refused, saying, "I

The foreboding special effect

nally realizes what an effect he

'Fresh Horses' features super
brats Ringwald, McCarthy
By MARSHAI L MOORE
Mali Writer
If you've seen "The Breakfast
Club "Less Than Zero or "St.
Elmo's Fire then you will have a
good idea what "Fresh Horses"
has in store. Basically, the Brat
Pack are at it again.
This is not to say that it'sabad
movie, while it's considered un-
hip to actress Molly Ringwald
who usually does what she does
very well. Co-star Andrew Mc-
Carthy, who is typecast again - all
his movie characters interchan-
gable and is the most interesting
person in the movie.
Although watching Mc-
Carthy go through the motions of
?nsitive oung man again is dis-
tracting, the mo ie's plot is inof-
fensive. The other characters.
especially Ringwald's and a re-
volting fellow named Sprolcs.are
v olorful enough to command the
viewer's attention.
Fresh Horses' begins as the
story of a love triangle: Larkin
(McCarthy) is a college senior
engaged to rich but bonne, Alice.

wald), who is dirt-poor, a high-
school drop-out, possibly sixteen

pursue (against almost
everyone's advice) ewel. Hoes it

There is plenty to like about
the movie: it is isually beautiful
without relying on pretty im
agery. The supporting cast are too
scuzzy to dislike inch and poor
alike). Molly Ringwald has her
most interesting role yet and
Andrew McCarthy gets roughed
upby drunk rednecks. Filestore's
climax and conclusion are cred-
ible, something which has eluded
the Brat Pack until now
McCarthy is the main draw-
back the depth ot his acting here
is found in his expressions of pain

cidently moots several redneck
knuckles. And the ending while
plausible enough is not cheerful.
All in all. it was pretty good.

Dennis Quaid, Jessica Lange
play ball in ' All American'
By ALICIA FORD
StatTWritar
"There is more to life than
making touchdowns the Grey
Ghost says convincingly to his
nephew, Cake, in the new movie
Everybody's All American
based on the novel by Frank De-
ford.
Dennis Quaid stars as Gavin
Grey, better known as the Grey
Ghost. Deford's character of the
Grey Ghost is supposed to be
modeled after Charlie "Cho Cho"
justice, a football great who
played for the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Quaid has been in the movie
business for over twelve years
and has had roles in nineteen pic-
tures. His role as the Cajun cop
Remy McSwain in "The Big East'
first brought him to the public's
attention as a sexy leading man.
"All American" doesn't really
allow Quaid's sexy qualities to
shine through, but it does allow
His acting abilities to stand out.
The movie travels over a thirty
year time span.
Jessica Lange is "Babsy the
town's Magnolia Queen and the
Ghost's main squeeze. They are
the picture-perfect college
couple, the beautiful coed and the
star of the football team. When the
:ear old Babs is asked what her
major is, she replies, "Gavin and
me.
In the beginning, the Ghost
doesn't let the fame and stardom
go to his head. He challenges a
former black football star, simply
known as "Blue to a foot race
just to see if he is as good as every-
one thinks he is. The race ends in
a tie, but Gavin is proclaimed the
winner by his buddies.
Timothy Hutton gives a notable
performance as the Ghost's
nephew Cake, who receives rec-
ognition just for being related to
the football star. He worships the
Ghost while in college at LU (a
takeoff of LSU), but loses respect
for him as they grow older.
Cake spends most of his time
lurking in his uncle's shadow and
falling in love with Babs. In one
scene, Babs invites Cake to go
skinny dipping with her (a nude
Jessica Lange that is) to which he
complies.
As expected, the Ghost and
Babs get married and he is drafted
for the Washington Redskins af-
ter graduation. The Ghost be-
comesstar wideout for the Re-
dskins and he plays with the team
for most of his pro career. Babs
stays at home and becomes preg-
nant, again, again, and again. The
two of them invest their football
money into a local bar in Louisi-
ana, which proves to be a flop.
Babs is an interesting character
because she evolves from the
dizzy blonde teenager into a
shrewd business woman when
becoming manager of the failing
bar.
She starts to spend more time
with Cake while the Ghost is
away playing football, and the
two have an expected affair.
Somehow the Ghost forgets there
is more to life than football and he
starts to neglect his family and
devotes all his time to the game.
Towards the end of Grey's car-
reer, the Redskins retire his jersey
at a fairly early age. Ghost has a
lot of time on his hands after retir-
ing and he fills the empty hours
by drinking at the bar and telling
football stories to his local fans.
He becomes very unhappy with-
out football and makes tne grave
mistake of trying to go back to the
game playing for the Denver
Broncos.
The Ghost doesn't last too long
with the Broncos-he seems to
have lost his touch -and winds up
being benched for the remainder
of the season. Frustrated and un-
happy, he walks away from foot-
ball forever, but he still can't seem
to leave it behind him.
The unusual character of Blue is
the one who makes the Ghost
realize that he has forgotten what
is most important in life. While he
was playing for the Redskins he
tried to get Blue a contract with
them but he refused, saying, 1

Man adopts Indian ways
MORRISTOWN.Tenn. (AD
He smiles, blows a little. The
smoking ball oi cedar bark crack-
les into flames.
"Thank you, fire Eustace
Conway says, and he means it.
The fire is his brother. The
vucca and basswood sticks he
used to make it are his brothers.
The deer that provides him meat,
clothing, tools and shelter is his
brother. The water in the stream,
the nettles from a plant, the tree
bark for his rope.
Conwav is a 26-year-old
North Carolina native who lives
with respect for Mother Earth.
He's adopted the ways of Ameri-
can Indians who survived in har-
mony with nature 12,000 years
agp.
They were the primitives,
which means simply they were
first, Conway says The rest of us
are "modern people' new comers
who abuse and deliberately de-
tach ourselves from the natural
environment through middle-
men and conveniences.
"We as modem Americans
pretty much separated ourselves
trom oi our perspective oi the
world Conway says. "You can
only rape our mother for so long
before she'll kick you out, and so
the native people, they think
we're very confused
Conway's smile fades when
he speaks of this abuse, but his
face lights up again when he de-
scribes what he's learned from
tribal elders and trial and error
during eight years of living in a
tepee.
Conwav doesn't just preach.
He lives in comfort and happiness
out in the woixis.
His clothes are buckskin, sof-
tened by the brains oi a deer,
tanned over a smoking fire and
adorned with skull from the same
dead animal. A strong, blue ten-
don that runs down the deer's
back becomes thread.
Its toes become jingles for a
knife case made trom its hide. Its
fur provides warmth and protec-
tion. The meat is food that is dried
in the sun.
His tools and utensils are
bone from the deer and stone
from the stream. He kneels and
twists fiber of softened tulip pop-
lar bark into a strong, valuable
rope using his hands and thigh.
"Anything that's long,
stringv and strong you can make
a rope out of Conway says. "No
magic. No hard thing. And it
doesn't take three hours either
Conway calls himself a native
American culturalist. He has a
bachelor's in English and anthro-
pology from Appalachian State
University in his native Boone,
N.C. He has lived among Indians
in Mexico, Alaska, Arizona and
North Carolina. He has kayaked
over 1,000 miles of shoreline
along Alaska's inland waterway.
1 le has hiked the entire 2,000-mile
Appalachian Trail.
He's had some scrapes, but
he's always survived.
"One day I went on a camp
ing tnp and here 1 am eight years
later and I still haven't come
back Conway said during a re-
cent lecture.
Conway is a man with a mis-
sion that he executes with wit and
the knowledge he's acquired. He
lues near Boone on land he's
dubbed "Turtle Island Preserve
1 here, he passes on his skills to
old people, young people, fami-
lies anyone who wants to stay
awhile and learn.
"Experience is one of the best
teachers and nature is the
teacher he says. 'The more you
immerse yourself in nature the
more you're going to have
Conway is a man of both
worlds. He travels to school lec-
tures in a van. He wears hiking
boots. He'll go to the hospital if
sickness threatens his life. He
shaves with the same straight-
edge razor he started out with in
puberty. Sometimes, he hunts
with a powder-loaded rifle.
But Conway never forgets the
earth, which the only he ventures
out of the woods.
"I've seen the simplicity of
life. The native people live a life of
balance he said. "They are the
people that are waiting for you to
get rid of yourselves so that they
can carry on with life.

Mhiiaratisg:
CAIRO, Egvpt (AP) ? Indi-
ana Jones and his swashbuckling
treasure hunts would have been
at home in Egvpt in the early
1800$, whena mixof travelersand
adventurers became ? by chance
the world's first Egyptologists.
The calling still retained a lot
of 1 larrison Ford's movie charac-
ter in 1922 when Howard Carter,
an eccentric Briton, dug into the
most famous tomb of all, the gold-
packed burial place oi Pharaoh
Tutankhamen.
But as Egyptology prepares
to enter the 21 st century, the coun-
try that gave the science its name
is asking lovers of its ancient past
to give up the shovel and trowel.
Don't Wig and destroy, Egyptian
antiquities officials are saying,
but restore and rebuild.
"Our grandfathers, the an-
cient Egyptians, were reaching

of the Egyptian Antiquities Or-
ganization, M.A. Nur-el-din, told

Congress of Egyptology. "It's our
task to let them remain eternal
Egypt's monuments have
seemed immortal, a rich and glo-
rious past paraded in stone mono-
liths and on tomb walls. Evidence
is growing, however, that time is
running out.
"We must leave the artifacts

ogy professor Faiza Haikal.

It takes the Ghost a long time to
realize that part of his life is over
too. He goes from being a former
hero to an aged, alcoholic has-
been who spends all of his time
boring people with his football
stories
"Everybody's All American"
isn't just a football story. It is a
love story, and more importantly,
a story about change. It is a good
way to spend two hours in a freez-
ing theatre, and it offers some-
thing to everyone who goes to see
it.

ronment and a rising water table,

age and other risks
Most scholars support the
changing face oi Egyptology, its
shift from seeking treasure to
seeking knowledge. Many of
today's Egyptologists spend their
days before delicately painted
walls or engraved columns.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE
PARK, N.C. (AP) ? George
I litchings knew right away that
Gertrude Elion was special.
"We had maybe four or five
interviews tor this job as an assis-
tant in the biochemistry depart-
ment Hitchirtgs recalled. "But
alter I talked to Trudy, I told the
research director, This is the one
we're looking for
Elion, 70, also clearly remem-
bers that meeting.
"George didn't ask me any
questions. I had three other job
offers, and they had all asked
hat the last book was that 1 had
d and that sort of thing. George
never viid. He just started talking
ibout what they were doing. He
nvas so excited about it that 1
thought, 'This is the place 1 want
to work
That 1944 job interview
uinched a lifelong collaboration
developing medicines for leuke-
mia, malaria, gout, herpes and
kidney transplant rejection ? a
collaboration that led to a share of
this year's Nobel Trize for medi-
cine.
"When we started it was all
trial and error Hitchings said.
"You'd develop a compound
and take some kind of target ?
usually a mouse ? plug it in and
see what it did or didn't do. Over
the last 40 years, there has been
more shifting to our system
Hitchings and Elion's "ra-
tional" approach involves prob-
ing the chemistry behind a dis-
ease and then developing chemi-
cal compounds to fight it.
Hitchings had been working
on nucleic acids at Burroughs
Wellcome Corp. for two years as
the company's only biochemist
when he hired Elion.
She had a master's degree in
chemistry from New York Uni-
versity at the time and went part-
time for two or three years, but my
professor told me if I wanted a
Ph.D 1 would have to go full-
time. 1 told him 1 couldn't do that
because 1 liked my job too much
Hitchings, however, had no
reservations. "She could have had
a doctorate at anv time. There was
never any question about that
Elion later was awarded hon-
orary doctorates, making her ?
in her words ? an "honest
woman
Elion wanted a career in re-
search, but ended up teaching
high school among other jobs af-
ter earning a chemistry degree
from Hunter College. World War
II helped her get into the field she
wanted. "The war had taken all
the men, so that gave me my
opportunity
Hitchings, too, had wan-
dered through other jobs ? at
Harvard and Western Reserve
universities ? before getting the
work he wanted in research.
Elion said she and Hitchings
had been successful partners for
44 years because they "just kept
working. There was no time for
anything else
And neither of them was
concerned about who got the
credit.
"As the scope of our work
grew and I took on assistants of
my own, we would spend a lot of
time talking through a problem
she said.
"By the end of our discus-
sions, we'd usually come up with
an approach, but neither one of us
would remember who had origi-
nally come up with the approach.
There never was any of this, 'Oh,
that was my idea between us
Elion, never married, and
Hitchings, a widower since 1985,
are officially retired from Bur-
roughs Wellcome. But they both
report every day when they're not
on the road lecturing. "People
around here just laugh when I say
I'm retired Elion said. "I do like
to stay busy.
"What's the use of retiring If
you don't have anything to con-
vo? n ry,m?rC' P??Ple ?? tell
you. But as long as you can make
a contribution, you should Sci-
ence is a continuum If the older
ones don't pass along their
knowledge to the younger ones it
comes to a dead stop "

Mel Gibson named sexiest man
LOS ANGELES (AP) ? How
does a young actor deal with
suddenly being named an inter-
national star and "the sexiest man
alive"?
"You deal with it by a trick of
the mind said Mel Gibson. "You
figure: Is it worrying me that
much? Does anybody else give a
damn as much as I do? So you
decide not to. It's easy
The Gibson method appears
to be working. He seems un-
changed from the time he first
arrived here seven years ago after
appearing as Mad Max in the
Australian movie, 'The Road
Warrior He still displays a hint
ol shyness, contrasting with the
self-assured roles he has played
on the screen.
The actor was here publiciz-
ing his latest Warner Bros, film,
Keaton turns
dramatic
(AP) ? Diane Keaton turns
iramatic in "The Good Mother
plaving a divorcee caught in a
ustodv battle with her former
husband.
Based on the best-selling
novel by Sue Miller and written
by Michael Bortman, the film
shows the life of a single mother
ho has a humdrum job and gets
grudging child support pay-
ments from her ex, played by
'ames Naughton. Flashbacks
-how repressed sexuality due to a
domineering, unfeeling father
?Ralph Bellamy).
Keaton meets Liam Neeson, a
free-living artist who releases her
inhibitions with unbridled sex.
The idyll is destroyed when
aughton claims his 6-ycar-old
laughter. In the custody suit, he
accuses the couple of having in-
tercourse in the same bed where
the girl was sleeping.
Keaton is represented in
court by Jason Robards and the
trial is heart-wrenching.
Leonard NJimoy directed in
an astounding change of pace
trom his last, "Three Men and a
Babv There is no humor in this
serious film.
The filmmakers deserve
credit for attempting a drama of
mplex social issues: the role of
the single mother; the question of
I a far sexual frankness should
go But the issues become
clouded, and the outcome lacks
thv emotional impact of "Kramer

Keaton is adept at the
mother's anguish, employing few
of her nervous mannerisms.

and Raul Julia. Gibson's last role
cast him as a Los Angeles cop in
"Lethal Weapon The new
movie puts him on the other side
of the law.
"Things don't quite match
up, and that's what appealed to
me about the script said Gibson.
"Here's a man who has a very
illicit lifestyle and has had an
unsavory career. Yet he always
tells the tnith and deals honora-
bly with people. That makes an
interesting combination.
"The script doesn't deal with
good and bad but shades of gray
in-between. He's retired (from
drug-dealing). But nobody wants
him to retire
In "Tequila Sunrise Gibson
is at odds with his high school
buddy, Russell, a narcotics cop.

Bangles stay away from M
NEW YORK (AD ?Bangle
Susanna Hoffs' mom invoked the
dreaded "M-word" when her
daughter recently played her
group's latest album, "Every-
thing for her.
"She thought it was more
sophisticated and MATURE
than the band s first two records,
- Hoffs said.
Maturity may be a dirty word
for many rockers ? and Hoffs
xnuckly disavowed her mother's
language ? but it's an apt de-
scription for both the record's
sound and the approach the
Bangles took in recording their
first album in almost three years.
After two LPs and seemingly
endless rounds ot touring, the
Bangles say thev finally feel com-
fortable with their craft.
We're learning to trust our-
selves more, to be more emotional
in our performance said bass
player Michael Steele. "I really
don't know if you can call it ma-
turity. It's more of an artistic
growth
The four women of the
Bangles, who pay homage to clas-
sic bands of the 1960s with their
sunny melodies and intricate
harmonies, became stars with
such hits as "Walk Like an Egyp-
tian and the Prince tune, "Manic
Monday from the 1986 LP,
"Different Light
The Bangles are thankful for
their success, but said they
needed to take greater control
over their music.
Producer David Kahne,
whose relationship with the band
was stormy at best, was replaced
bv Davitt Sigerson. Hoffs, Steele
and sisters Vicki and Debbi Peter-
son, who once readily accepted
contributions from outside song-
writers, each wrote or co-wrote all
of the new album's 13 songs.
When all four members of a
band write songs, they notice
when their biggest hits are writ-
ten by someone else. "Walk Like
an Egyptian" was written by
Liam Steinberg, "If She Knew
What She Wants" is a Jules Shear
song and the Bangles hit the Top
10 with a cover of Paul Simon's
"Hazy Shade of Winter
"It was a reaction to the suc-
cess of 'Different Light' that made
us determined to write as many
songs as we could come up with
? strong stuff that we could feel
was emotionally attached to us
Steele said. "We had a strange,
slight feeling of distance from
'Different Light
The flip side to trusting your
own instincts, of course, is getting
burned if the public rejects you.
Some critics have grumbled that
"Everything" sounds overpro-
duced and the songs don't
sparkle. But the public's respond-
ing to the first single, a Hoffs
rocker called "In Your Room
which is moving swiftly up the
charts.
The Bangles will spend much
of 1989 touring to support a rec-
ord they say even moms and dads
can love ? they know, because
they've asked theirs.
"I played it for my dad
Steele said. "He said, 'this is a
much more professional-sound-

Uris bases 'Mitla Pass' on past
NEW YORK (AP) ? Leon
Uris has based much of his work
on historical events. In "Mitla
Pass the history is his own.
I was looking for a legacy to
leave my new family and my
grandchildren" said Uris, the64-
ar-old author of such best sell-
ers as "Exodus" and "QB VII
"Mitla Pass" (Doubleday,
$19.95), which closely follows the
11 e of Lris and his familv, begins
in Israel in 1956 during the Suez
Canal cnis and centers on the
author s alter ego,Gideon Zadok,
?a writer covering the incident.
The novel then traces Zadok's
ahec tr back to the 1880s.
Uris lues in Aspen, Colo
with his third wife I ill and hopes
the book wil bring him closer to
their two children.
"I wanted to leave them with
a storv of what their old man did
and let them know he was not
infallible. You spend the sec-
ond half of vour life getting over
your first half he said.
In "Mitla Pass the writer
had difficulties with both parents.
Like Zadok, Uris was born in
Baltimore and spent several vears
growing up in Norfolk, Va. His
father. Wolf William, was a paper
hanger and storekeeper. Uris
remembered him as an unhappy
man.
"i thmk his personality was
formed by the harsh realities of
being a Jew in Czarist Russia he
said. "1 le was basically a failure.
He went from failure to failure. I
think failure formed his charac-
ter, made him bitter.
"I think I can say without
hesitation that from earliest
memory 1 was determined not to
be a failure
Uris credits his mother,
Anna, with teaching him an ap-
preciation of the arts, but says
they did not get along.
"Her life was such that there
was a heavy distrust of men, in
large part because of a very cruel
father. We were essentially disin-
terested in each other. She was
inside of her own head there
somewhere
Uris struggled to establish his
own independence and World
World II provided the opportu-
nity.
"All societies that I know of
are shaped by macho, the need of
a man to be' macho said Uris,

Swimmers' success
due to Bridgers
By KRISTEN HALBERG
Sport Editor
The East Carolina Pirates
opened their 1988-89 season at
home over the weekend with both
impressive and not so impressive
victories over opponents N.C.
Wesleyan and UNC-Greensboro.
The cagers played their first
opponent, N.C. Wesleyan, on Sat-
urday at Minges Coliseum where
the Pirates outscored Wesleyan
91-65. Blue Edwards gave an
awesome showing as he had 34
points for the night.
Staples also had a good game
with 18 points and Stanley Love
put in a good showing with 10
points.
ECU's shot percentage was
also impressive as they shot 49
percent against Wesleyan. The
Pirates began their assult right
from the beginning in the first
period taking the lead right off the
bat and increasing its margin
from there on.
The final outcome of last
night's UNC-Greensboro game
was equally as awesome with
ECU winning 68-49, but head
coach Mike Steele was not happy
with the way his hoopsters
played.
"I thought our defense was
really good, it was solid Steele
said. "But offensively, I thought
we were horrible. Everybody was
looking to score after one pass
The Pirates held an impres-
sive 36-22 lead in the first half in
front of a crowd of 3,954 but let
their 14-point margin slide to as
close as a four-point spread in the
second half.
Steele explained that none of
the members of the team "were
enjoying it and having fun pass-
ing the basketball
But despite Steele's bitterness
over the way his team played as a
whole, a couple of Pirates had
worthy performances.
Gus Hill, the junior forward,
led the cagers in scoring with 20
points. Steele was especially
pleased with Hill's performance
in the second half. "Gus did a nice
job in the second half. He came in
and won the defensive boards
and got a coupleof big plays for us
and had a pretty good game
"1 was really pleased with
Gus. He struggled in the first
game against N.C. WesleyanJ
Jeff Kelly didn't score any
points but had an impressive
game giving the Pirates the "lift"
that it needed to secure the vic-
tory. "Jeff Kelly came in the game
and gave us a nice lift and helped
us and got us rolling. That was
really important for us
Steele explained that the
UNC-G game was especially
good for Edwards because played
in a more realistic environment as
far as the rest of the season is
concerned, namely, against Duke
on Wednesday.
UNC-G's Verdel Ellis stayed
with Edwards for most of the
game and did a great job in cover-
ing ECU's best offensive player.
"Blue kind of did anything he
wanted in the first game but this is
more like how it is going to be for
him
The highlight of the game that
shifted the Pirates back in gear
after letting UNC-G catch up to
within five, was the technical foul
called on Reed Lose with 10:24
remaining in the game, after he
slammed the basketball on a
UNC-G player's leg before it went
out of bounds. The technical was
because the whistle signaling
dead ball had already been
blown. The once quiet Minges
crowd got up on its feet and the
Pirates returned to their emo-
tional play to increase their
spread in the final score, to 19.
"I think he just missed the
call'Steele explained regarding
the official that called the techni-
cal. "He had blown the whistle
and he thought Reed heard the
whistle. "I hadn't heard the
whistle either
Steele and the ECU bench
were the next ones to receive two
additional technical fouls with
2:22 left to play after they pro-
tested an official's call.
"I think you've got to give
UNC-G some real credit. I
thought that their kids really
played hard. Their kids came to
play and thev really did a nice
job

ham on Wednesday to challenge

While the football program
has been struggling for the past
five years and with the basketball
team on track for a winning sea-
son, East Carolina's swimming
program continues to roll with
victories.
Year in and year out, ECU
fields some of the best swim teams
Meredith Bridgers
in the Colonial Athletic Associa-
tion. This year is no exception as
the team has posted a combined
record of nine wins and one loss
against teams such as Old Domin-
ion, William and Mary, UNC-
Charlottc, James Madison and
American. In all, the men are 5-0
and the women are 4-1.
Much of the success for the
women's team can be placed on a
relative newcomer Meredith Br-
idgers. A sophomore from South
Mecklenburg High School in
Charlotte, she is currently unde-
feated in the 100 and 200-yard
breaststroke.
Just this past week, she quali-
fied for the prestigous NCAA
Championships to be held at Indi-
ana University March 16-18. By
qualifying so early in th&S?asen
Bridgers became the quickest
qualifier for the NCAA's in East
Carolina swimming history.
Up at 5:30 a.m. and in the pool
by 6 a.m Bridgers will swim close
to 8,000 yards (1620 yards is
equivalent to one mile in the pool)
before the day is over. Morning
practice is scheduled from 6 a.m.
to 7:30 a.m. followed by classes,
then weight training at 2:20 p.m.
with another practice at 3:30 p.m.
and lasting until 6:30 p.m.
Bridgers is quick to point out
that swimming has its definite
sacrifices just like any other colle-
giate sport, but she finds it diffi-
cult to miss something she has
never had. When she does find
time to relax, she enjoys reading
the classics. She remembers in
high school when the teacher
would assign a novel to be read,
but she would always put it off.
Now she finds that she is attracted
to reading the novels that she
avoided in high school.
When not reading she can
usually be found hanging out
with the other members of the
swim team. One thing about East
Carolina that really impressed her
was the casual atmosphere that
tends to run rampant around
campus. "It is easy to be yourself

The East Carolina women's
basketball team opened its season
on Thanksgiving evening at the
Appalachian State Classic in
Boone, N.C. with a loss to Stetson
University. But they came back in
second round action action to
earn their first win of the season
against South Carolina State.
In first round action against
the Laty Hatters trf Stetson, 'ECU
took a 79-74 loss. The Lady Pirates
had three players finish in double
figures with sophomore Sarah
Gray leading the way with 17
points.
Grav, a forward from Wash-
ington, N.C. who was selected to
the all-tournament team, was also
the Lady Pirates' second leading
rebo under.
Senior Pam Williams and
freshman Tonya Hargrove scored ?
11 points each in the ECU effort.
Hargrove lead ECU on the boards
with 10 rebounds.
In second round action, the
Lady Pirates mmped out to an
early lead and led by as many as
12 in the first six minutes. Despite
shooting just 35 percent from the
floor for the game, ECU came
away with its first win.
Sarah Gray once again led
ECU, this time inboth scoring and
rebounding. Gray had 24 points

rebounds.
Senior Gretta Savage scored

had nine rebounds. Pam Wil-
liams, with her second double

11 points.
With her first win of the sea-
son, ECU head coach Pat Pierson
said that her team still needs a lot
of work to be ready for conference
play.
"We did not play very well
tonight. At times we played great
defensively, creating a lot of turn-
overs and steals Pierson said
about the Lady Pirates who fin-
ished third in the ASU Classic.
"We just didn't do a good job of
converting them into points.
We'll need to work hard this week

Duke Analysis
No Duke tickets available to ECU fans
By DAVID MONROE
Suff Writer
Just imagine it. . . East Caro-
lina University playing the
nation's top-ranked basketball
team 8,000 plus screaming fans
delirious with excitement, all in
the wildest place imaginable for a
basketball game. . . Duke
University's Cameron Indoor
Stadium.
On Wednesday, November
30th, Mike Steele takes his show
on the road against the Duke Blue
Devils in a matchup that should
prove to be to the fans delight.
Unfortunately for the Pirate faith-
ful you can forget about following
the Purple and Gold to Durham.
Through a discovery made this
past weekend, tickets for the
Duke vs. East Carolina basketball
game are not being made avail-
able to Pirate fans. In fact, they
never were available.
It seems Duke University has
a "long" standing policy of not
providing the visiting school with
the opportunity of having its fans
present to support them. All tick-
ets are available only to Duke
University students and season
ticket holders. When an effort was
made to acquire tickets for this
exciting game by calling the Duke
Ticket Office this fact was
pounded home time and time
again. Want tickets? Either buy a
season ticket package or enroll at
Duke (for those out there who are
not up on their college tuition
prices for prestigious private
Universities, Duke is a modest
$13,000 a year).
And so the question currently
stands: Why can't such exuberant
fan support exist at ECU as well?
Upon realizing that East
Carolina was going to Durham
without fan support, this scenario
at East rolina's Minges Coli-
seum, ti jteele Mill of the South,
began to take root. With a student
enrollment of over 15,000 and a
surrounding community boast-
ing over 35,000 citizens, it really
boggles the mind as to why East
Carolina has managed to sell out
its 6,500 seat arena only four times
in the past three years.
If David Robinson had not
decided to attend the Naval Acad-
emy and had Wilmington not
brought some 500 or so fans to
their games, Minges might not
have been filled to capacity. Just
in case you might be wondering,
Duke's student enrollment is in
the neighborhood of 11,500 (give
or take 1,000).
With excitement returning to
East Carolina basketball for the
first time in over nine years, vi-
sions of winning seasons and
even someday an NCAA tourna-
ment bid are suddenly within
reason of becoming a reality. As
the University makes a commit-
ment to ennff ftlf PlPpram
Mike Steele is trying to build by
upgrading Minges Coliseum, it
now falls upon the student body
and surrounding community to
provide the finishing touch.
The thought of sellout games
at Minges, visiting fans standing
out in the cold because they could
not get tickets, a twenty win sea-
son, and even an NCAA bid
makes one excited with expecta-
tion. All this can happen.
With an excellent class of re-
cruits joining a solid group of
experienced juniors and seniors,
the ground floor has been laid. In
order to ensure success, ECU
must be able to attract top athletes
to our program and there must be
a strong showing of school and
community support.
Regardless of whether East
Carolina is playing a Top 20 team
or a team with a 10 game losing
streak, there must be enthusiasm
and excitement behind the bas-
ketball program. The first steps
have been taken by the commu-
nity by doubling the amount of
season ticket packages purchased
over last years total. Now the stu-
dent body needs to show that they
too appreciate what is happening
to the East Carolina basketball
program.
Mike Steele has shown that
he can win. During his six seasons
as head coach fo. the DePauw
Tigers, Mike Steele led his team to
a 124-40 record during his reign.
The last four seasons at DePauw,
he posted consecutive 20 win sea-
sons receiving four NCAA Divi-
sion III tournament bids, and es-
tablished a Division III record for
consecutive homecourt wins with
61.
East Carolina has long taken
pride in itself as an institution of
higher learning and with your
help it can establish itself as one of
the top basketball programs in the
country.
Sigma Phi Epsilon took the
third spot behind the Pi Kaps with
a total 39:40 time.
From out of the women's
starting blocks came Delta Zeta.
The DZ squad placed first in the
women's team category with a
60:50 time spread. Team members
include Laurie Sadono, Marney
McKee, Mardy Parrish and
Rhonda Mount.
Individual honors were pre-
sented to the three mile finishers
as well. It seemed only minutes
before top male finisher Barry
Scott started the race and com-
pleted its course. Scott, the first to
cross the finish line, ran a 9:59
race.
Close behind Scott was
Yukmen teammate Charlie Jus-
tice who breezed through the fin-
ish lone with a 10:00.
Female top individual honors
go to Suzanne Uzzell, a lone run-
ner with a time of 1532. UzzeH's
time ousted all female as well as
several male scores in the event.
Taking the second place position
was DZ Laurie Sadono with an
18:38 time.
