otap ? m the ECU School of

moved that ECU Attorney Gen-
eral Briai us review the is-
ne whether or not
; n meets the criteria
for fu fn m the SGA.
ECU School of Medicine Fac-
ulty Member Richard H.RasOct
31 letter to the editor of The last
Carolinian said the "illegally ob-
tained" videotape, "designed to
reduce the number ot animals
needed to teach physiology was
"re-edited" for public presenta-
tion.
Some members of the SGA
speculated that the videotape was
stolen bv SETA and shown at a
SETA meeting. If Attorney Gen-
eral Stevens links the theft and
presentation incidents to SETA,
the group will not be SGA funded,
since the SGA cannot fund politi-
cal or social action groups. The in-
vestigation will begin next semes-
ter.
Before the vote was made for
an investigation, Helms reminded
the body that the speculation of
SETA's action was only hearsay.
The constitution of the Gradu-
ate Business Association was also
denied approval in the Fall Con-
stitutions Amendment. After
changes are made to the
constitution, the group can re-
submit the constitution. Fall Con-
stitutions which did pass include
Phi Beta Lambda, Panhellenic
Council, Kitty Hawk Squandron-
Arnold Air Society, East Carolina
Friends, Apostolic Campus Min-
istry, The East Carolina Poetry
Forum and the Hispanic-Spanish
Club.
After two amendments were
revised, the resolution to improve
relations between East Carolina
students and the Greenville Police
Department was passed by accli-
mation. The resolution will create
a task force of Greenville police
officials and ECU student leaders
who will make recommendations
for better relations.
Legislator Chris Stewart, co-
author of the bill, said the resolu-
tion "will ease tension and help
things run smoothly
The resolution will be sent to
Greenville Mayor-elect Nancy
Jenkins, Greenville Police Chief

Dr. Richard Eakin, ECU Vice
Chancellor for Student Life Dr.
Alfred Matthews, ECU News
Bureau Director William Shires
and The East Carolinian Manag-
ing Editor Stephanie Folsom.
The $2,276 appropriation for
the Model U.N.Conference passed
by consent after the body deb ited
whether or not the SGA should
fund one or two delegations of the
mock debaters to attend a national
conference at Princeton Univer-
sity. After Legislator Pat King
proposed an amendment to the
amendment that the group raise
half of the housing costs through
fund raisers, the amendment was
passed.
The floor was yeilded to the
president of the Model UN,
Stephen Reynolds, in order tor him
to describe the organization and
answer questions about the up-
coming March conference. The
group, open to all ECU students,
is designed to go to the confer-
ences and mock debates, Reynolds
said. Similar to the actual United
Nations, the debaters are faced
with making d cisions f ? rid

On Tuesday, Dec. 5, a "Fur is
Dead" demonstration will be held
in front of Pitt Plaza. From 3 p.m.
to 6 p.m animal rights activists
and members of Students for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals
(SETA) will protest the unfair treat-
ment and killing of fur bearing
animals.
Craig Spitz, president of
SETA, said thatdemonstrators will
be holding signs in front of the
plaza during rush hour traffic. "We
want people to realize that unsen-
sitivitv is not fashionable
Fur farmers have already
slipped into their biggest reces-
sion since 1954. Other segments of
the industry have watched fur
sales fall. Spitz said he hopes that,
as consciousness rises, the pur-
chases of fur will cease entirely.
"The wearing of fur garments is
already considered a 'taboo' in
many European countries Spitz
said.
Janet Hudson, vice-president
of SETA said, "People don't think
about the fact that animals do have
to be killed to make fur coats. It's
unnecessary Hudson also said
that most oi people are not aware
of the intense pain and suffering

Staff WriWr
A guest speaker from Conser-
vation International gave a public
presentation on the protection of
environmental ecosystems last
Thursday evening in the General
Class:oom Building.
Tim Werner, a research asso-
ciate from Conservation Interna-
tional, conducted a presentation
entitled "Approaches to the Chal-
lenge of Conserving Global Bio-
logical Diversity
Werner worked with the
National Audubon Society with
its concerns of protecting life on
earth. He is the program coordi-
nator for Conservation Interna-
tional working with the Oceania
project covering the western Pa-
cific island regions.
Werner began the presenta-
tion with a strong opening opin-
ion explaining, "1 talk tonight as a
spokesman for the millions of liv-
ing species with whom we share
our planet Wemer said he be-
lieves that a healthy environment

caught in traps. Among these is
the steel-jaw leghold. Because of
their extreme cruelty these traps
have been banned in more than 70
countries, according to Spitz.
An animal caught in one of
these traps can suffer for hours or
days before the hunter returns to
club it, drown it or stomp it to
death, Spitz said Many of these
trapped animalsattempt to escape
bv wringing or chewing off their
limbs, which may cause infection
or blood poisoning.
According to SETA "ranched
furbearers suffer from crowding
and confinement which induces
an array ot contagious diseases, as
well as self-mutilation and even
cannibalism. The open sheds in
which the animals are raised are
not usually heated or cooled
The killing methods of the fur
farms are not much kinder that of
trapping, Spitz said. Thev include
poisoning with strychnine or hot,
unfiltered automobile or lawn-
mower exhaust, neck-snapping,
gassing, decompression and anal
electrocution. Such cruelties will
continue to exist as long as con-
sumers are demanding fur, accord-
ing to SETA.
Those attending the demon-
stratum are encouraged to bring
signs and banners. Literature will
be provided for all interested
parties.

Rain forests
Continued from page 1
the same factors that sustain other
organisms.
Only 1.4 million species are
described but there are believed
to be between five and 30 million
that have not yet been discovered.
Of these 1.4 million species, most
reside in the tropical rain forests.
One half to two thirds of the
worlds wealth of living species is
contained within this biome, one
that makes up only 6 percent of
the earths land surface. Accord-
ing to Werner, if humans really
want to preserve the global bio-
diversity, they must focus on the
tropical rain forests.
Recent estimates show that 50-
100 acres of rain forest are being
destroyed every minute. Every
day at least 75,000 acres are lost.
Twenty-seven million acres, an
area about the size of North Caro-
lina, are lost each year. Long term
estimates predict that within the
next twenty years, 90 percent of
all forests will be destroyed and a
25 percent loss of life on earth
will result. Werner said, "We are
faced with the largest extinction
spasm that has occurred since the
disappearance of the dinosaur.
This time the culprit is not mete-
ors, itij r.
Several countries stand out
among the rest as being ot very
special importance in the global
picture. These are what
Conservation's President Dr. Mit-
ermver has termed the
"M.y,adiversity Countries
These countries, currently 13
of them, account for at least 60
percent and perhaps 80 percent or
more of all the species on earth.
Some of these countries include
Indonesia, Australia, Zaire, Mex-
ico, Columbia and Brazil.
In fact, Brazil is the worlds
richest country in terms of its bio-
diversity. It contains more than
three and a half times the amount
of rain forests than any other
country. Alone, it accounts for 30
percent of all rain forests on earth
and contains more species than
any other county.
According to Werner, studies
of diet, behavior and re-adapta-
tion will teach man how to suc-
ceed in reintroducing species and
how to structure reserves. Involv-
ing the local people is another
important strategy in the trial of
conservation, Werner said. "Pub-
lic education, especially directed

Another rape disturbs area women
Remember safety precautions
Women living off campus in
apartments were given a reason to
be extra cautious this year when
they found out there were more
rapes this summer than there were
the entire previous year.
But now the semester is winding
down, Christmas is in sight, and
thoughts are probably more at ease.
Being raped may be the last fear a
girl has when she has a week of
exams and research papers the next
week.
Unfortunately that relaxed atti-
tude must be interrupted to again
remind the women ? and men ? at
ECU to take extra precautions.
Another woman was abducted from
her apartment and raped recently.
Although the details are still
sketchy, we know the victim was
taken from Kings Row Apartments
after midnight, with her eyes cov-
ered by her captor's ski mask, into a
secluded area where he repeatedly
raped and beat her.
This same man is also connected
with many obscene phone calls re-
ported by young women in area
apartment complexes. Women have
also reported a man fitting the
criminal's description approaching
them at or near local apartment
complexes in the Kings Row area.
This man is intruding on the
lives of local women not only by
bodily assault, but by making them
feel afraid whether it be by phone,
lurking around their apartment, or
approaching them in person. This
same man may also be connected
with an incident where a man pulled
a gun on a young woman in thesame
area.
It is appropriate for men and
women living in off-campus apart-
ment complexes to be alarmed by
this repetition of events. Being terri-
fied, however, will only make day-
to-day life a chore. Instead, just
don't forget to contact the police
immediately if you receive obscene
phone calls or notice a man fitting
the description o( the assailant lurk-
ing around your apartment complex
(there is a composite in today's issue
of The East Carolinian). When
you're in your home, make sure all
your doors and windows are secure.
And if you're going to be alone for
days at a time or here for the Christ-
mas holidays, let your neighbors or
friends know something about your
schedule.
Men also need to share in pre-
cautions by not forgetting to take the
extra time to see their female friends
in safely to their apartments. He has
approached women late at night
and during the day. Since this man is
thought to be violent in nature, it is
important for everyone, men and
women, to be careful.

Another look at the O.T. mixer
To the editor:
In reference to an article
printed in the Nov. 9,1989edition
of the East Carolinian, "Majors
discuss O.T. program at Mixer I
was left high and dry. While the
basic facts printed in the article
were accurate, it failed to give a
clear picture of occupational ther-
apy as a profession. The speech
presented by Katrina 1 larnsat the
mixer was moving and gave a
good description i it the process of
becoming an occupational thera-
pist, would like to share the high-
lights of this speech with your
readers, especially t hose interested
in pursuing O.T. as a career.
Harris began with a descrip-
tion of how she viewed O.T. as a
pre O.T. student. She stated that
at first, all she had vas a literal
definition of O.T "therapy by
means of mental or physical activ-
ity (specifically prescribed crea-
tive activity) carried out under
supervision for its effect in pro-
moting recovery or rehabilitation
following disease or injury. Har-
ris went on to sav that after litera-
ture, she arrived at her perception
of the practice of illness or injury
to maintain or develop daily liv-
ing skills through the development
of social, emotional, and physio-
logical aspects
Harris continued that this
perception has been greatly re-
fined since she has been in the
O.T. program. She described that
in the junior year, O.T. students
arc introduced to the components
of O.T.? social, cognitive,
psychological, sensory and neu-
romuscular,and are given intense
instruction in Gross Anatomy,
Human Physiology, Ncu-
roanatomv, Medical Science,
I luman Development,and Abnor-
mal Psychiatry. These, said Har-
ris, gave her the basis and under-
standing of what is normal and
abnormal. In the senior vear, in-
struction in theory is the primary
emphasis, and stresses that it is
the integration of the theory and
the knowledge base that allows
the senior student to prepare to
enter the work force as a practic-
ing O.T. Harris compared K i
ing a competent therapist to b
coming a competent driver SI
discussed the eligibility, willing
ness, and dedication to learned
possession of knowledge, testing
and being on the one's own in
volved in making one a comp
tent therapist or driver.
In closing Harriscommei
that becoming an O.T. ran exp. s
one to an array of potential lit'
enhancing experience A
occupational therapist, lam
she will be a respected and finan-
cially stable memlvr of society, ? ?
highly educated member of tin
medical community,
well rounded and holisrk p. r
Most of all, she will be an I
whose wealth of know Ij
allow her to enhance others lives
just as she has enhanced hers b
becoming ,n O.T.

Which way goes the global thermostat?
By Nathaniel Mead
?f'tnrial Columnist
Blustery eold weather swept
the Carolinas this past Monday.
The weather came as part of a
larger front that triggered snow
storms and set record lows in states
across the nation The incident
came as no surprise to meteorolo-
gists who have been following the
past five or six winters, every one
of which has seen plenty of cold
weather records broken.
Let's take a few examples. In
January of 1986, all of Europe,
Scandinavia and the western
Soviet Union experienced thecold-
est weather in recorded history.
In the United States, on October 5,
1987, winter weather dumped up
to 20 inchesof snow and set 38 low
temperature records from Ala-
bama to Vermont. Barely one
month later, on November 12,
Washington, D.C. received 12
inches of snow, the heaviest No-
vember snowfall since World War
II. On Christmas day, 1987, a
sudden cold spell in Los Angeles
tied a 106-year-old record.
The total snowfall for 1987 was
a staggering 42 inches, the most
since 1966 and one of the few times
in the century that the annual
accumulation surpassed 40 inches.
On January 8,1988, the New York
Times reported, "Snowand strong
winds idled much of the South
yesterday In north Georgia,
some snow plows gave up trying
to clear mountain roads of up to 11
inches of snow At the River-
banks Zoo in Columbia, S C, the
polar bears were kept in their
heated dens for safety
Since most of us daybv-day
folks pay more attention to next
Sunday than last New Year's.
Monday's sudden chill came as a
real shocker. It just didn't seem to
mesh with what the big guys are
saying about global warming.
When, afterall, is the greenhouse
effect going to push the polar ice
caps into the ocean and swamp
the Outer Banks? When is the Earth
going to start showing signs of an
endless summer?
Though the mass media would
have you regard global warming
as gospel, some prominent scien-
tists now view such projections as
based on rather slipshod climate
research ? that is, on computer
models which fail to take into
account the essential climate-al-
tering roles of oceans and clouds.
Some of these scientistsare so bold
as to suggest a diametrically op-
posite scenario?that the green-
house effect could promote a
global cooling a very Big Chill if
you will.
Some of the fuel for the cool-
ing perspective comes, again, from
recent observationsof the weather
itself. In 1977, Miami saw its first
snowfall in recorded history. In
1979 snow fell for the first time in
the Sahara Desert. Since 1980, fruit
and nut growers of Florida and
California have repeatedly been
plagued with ruinous early frosts
and shorter growing seasons. The
frequency of these frosts over the
past four decades is three times
greater than during the first half
of the century 'Meanwhile, the
nation's "hardiness zones" (gen-
eral boundaries for temperate-
zone agricultural productivity)
have been moved steadily south-
ward over the the past decade.
How could some scientists say
the planet is getting warmer while
others vehemently predict a colder
world? The problem, in part,
centers on a crucial flaw in meth-
odology. "Warming" proponents
rely on thermometers which tell
them the world isgetting warmer.
"Cooling" proponents use ther-
mometers which tell them the
world has been getting colder.
Whence the disparity and which
view is more accurate?
Most reports of nation wide warm-
ing trends are derived from read-
ings at urban weather stations.
Compared to small towns or rural
areas, cities tend to generate far
more heat?from furnaces, air-
conditioning plants, buildingsand
black-top pavement on sunny
days, and waste heat from auto-
mobiles and industrial processes.
In addition, urban areas usually
lack the cooling benefits of tree-
shade and moisture released from
fields and forests.
Due to the "urban heat-island ef-
fect says Fred B. Wood, Senior
Associate of the Congressional
Office for Technology Assessment
(OTA), thermometers in or near
cities are as much as 18o F (10? C)
warmer than those in the sur-
rounding countryside, depending
on population size. The larger
and more populated the city, the
warmer the locality. Since almost
all cities are growing in popula-
tion, the appearance of a global
warming trend could in fact mean
only that most thermometers are
in cities?and that cities are grow-
ing.
When Wood went to investigate
this potential confounding factor,
he discovered that all reports of
nationwide warming thus far took
the bulk of their data from urban
weather stations. Wood believes
that the urban heat island effect
presents a serious flaw in the
greenhouse theory's design.
If the unban heat island effect dis-
torts any reading of the global
thermostat, what do rural ther-

be getting cooler- One possibility
is that the greenhouse effect may
be increasing the rate et ocean
evaporation, which in turn may
be producing more clouds that
reflect sunlight (and potential
heat) away from the plain t In
deed, a growing Kxiv of resean h
indicates that global cloud cover
has increased significantly in re-
cent decades.
Perhaps by focusing on the
mechanism of the greenhouse
effect and attempting to match
theory with urban thermometer
readings, our "experts" are only
looking at the sweaty brow ot the
climate elephant and a much
cooler elephant at that Bv the
way, if the Earth does get cooler
instead of warmer climate mod
els predict that global climate
patterns will become yet more
erratic, bringing more extreme
conditions such as drought, flox1
ing, blizzards, and hurricanes
In short, while a "cooling may
sound good, the final outcome
may tum out far worse than any
global-warming forecast. It is by
no meansa better alternative One
way or another, the greenhouse
effect needs to be dealt with, as
Earth's climate system can only
adjust so much before it is forced
into an entirely new equilibrium.
Perhaps the real Big Chill has yet
to come.

Bush speaks with NATO following Malta talks
By TERENCE HUNT

BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) -
President Bush Monday hailed the
"peaceful revolution" sweeping
Communist Eastern Europe and
said the United States and its
European allies would work to-
gether to see that "individual free-
dom everywhere replace coercion
and tyranny
At the same time. Bush told a
news conference after meeting
with NATO leaders tha t the United
States would keep its troops in
Europe as long as leaders there
desire.
Bush made his comments one
day after wrapping up a two-day
summit with Soviet leader Mikhail
S. Gorbachev that both said her-
alded a new era in East-West rela-
tions. Bush's meeting with NATO
leaders was private, but Dutch
Foreign Minister Hans van den
Broek told reporters the super-
power leaders had agreed to aim
for an East-West summit in Vi-
enna next summer to sign a land-
mark treaty reducing conventional
forces in Europe.
Bush and the allied leaders
met as Gorbachev was convening
a meeting of a radically reordered
Warsaw Tact in Moscow.
Bush said that while "all was
not sweetness and light" at the
Malta summit, he believes Gor-
bachev is sincere about nurring

Police keep drug profits
RALEIGH (AP) - A recently
passed federal law restoring shar-
ingof assets from drug busts could
have a positive impact on North
Carolina's public school systems,
says Attorney General Lacy
Thornburg.
"The restoration of federal
sharing is a victory for education,
as well as law enforcement
Thornburg said in a prepared
statement. "With seized assets,
supplementing local law enforce-
ment agencies, law enforcement
will have more resources avail-
able to undertake more criminal
investigations. The result will be
even more criminal fines and for-
feitures going to the public
schools
On Wednesday, President
Bush signed a measure that al-
lows federal law-entorcement
agencies to continue to "adopt"
property and cash seizures made
by local police and sheriff's de-
partments. Under the law, the local

newed his longstanding support
for Gorbachev's policy of per-
es troika.
Asked what had emerged at
the summit, he said "1 think he
took my measure and 1 took his
and 1 think we both feel more
comfortable about our common
objectives
He said Gorbachev was "de-
termined and unemotional " in
their private talks. The Soviet
leader "seemed very much in
control" and "very confident in
discussing without notes a wide
array of subjects with me Bush
was flying home after his news
conference.
The 16 NATO and seven
Warsaw Pact nations are negotiat-
agencies are al lowed to keep much

"With drug enforcement re-
sources being so limited, it isgrati-
fying to see that the criminals, and
not the taxpayers, will be picking
up the cost sot drii? enforcement
Thornburg said.
Without federal adoption of
local drug seizures, the proceeds
from local drug seizures in North
Carolina are required to go to local
school systems. In manv cases,
local police ask federal authorities
to adopt their seizures so that law
enforcement, and not the schools,
get the money.
That's the way it has worked
for several years, but a law that
technically took effect Oct. 1 would
have stopped many such adop-

ing in Vienna on cuts in conven-
tional forces in Europe. Van den
Broek quoted Bush as saying he
hoped an accord could be reached
about mid-1990.
"Let's get it done the presi-
dent said. He said he wanted the
accord "in the bag" before mov-
ing on to more complicated mat-
ters.
The conventional arms talks
are designed to reduce U.S. troops
in Europe by 30,000 and Soviet
troops by 325,000 to a level of abou t
275,000 on each side. The negotia-
tions also are attempting to con-
trol tanks and other weapons.
"The importance of this is that
it indicates both (Bush and Gor-
bachev) want to make an effort to
reach such an agreement next
year Van den Broek said.
"In that context, the term mid-
1990 was mentioned. Without a
doubt, that should be regarded as
positive he said.
Conventional forcesaside, the
superpowers are negotiating a
treaty to cut long-range nuclear
weapons by up to 50 percent, and
a separate agreement on banning
chemical weapons.
Bush said his view of Gor-
bachev had changed significantly
over the past year. He said the
Soviet leader's response to tur-
moil in Eastern Europe "practi-
cally mandates" a fresh perspec-
tive of the Kremlin leader.
The president began his news
conference with a statement that
said a "peaceful revolution" was
taking place in Eastern Europe,
where five hardline communist
regimes have fallen in recent
weeks and somecountrieshave
experienced more than one change
in government.
He said the task tor Western
nations is to consolidate the fruits
of this peaceful revolution and
provide the architecture for the
continued peaceful changes and
end the division of Europe and
Germanv and create a "Europe
wholeand free At thesametime,
he said the Western alliance "must
remain strong and said the
United States "will maintain sig-
nificant military forces in Europe
as long as our allies desire our
presence "
German Communist party resigns
By KEVIN COSTELLOE
The Atkociated Ppbm
EAST BERLIN (AP) ? With
public resentment against the rul-
ing Communists reaching a fever
pitch, the party's entire leadership
resigned in disgrace and asked a
committee of 25 reformers to sal-
vage what they can.
Just two months ago, the
party's hierarchy enforced iron-
fisted rule. Now, the former rul-
ing elite has its back against the
wall as demands grow for punish-
ment of those who lived in style
while East Germany sunk into
crisis.
Arrests and expulsions from
the party have humbled top offi-
cials, but the most dramatic and
potentially dangerous step was the
mass resignation Sunday of party
leader Egon Krcnz, the 10-man
Politburo and 163-member Cen-
tral Committee. Erich Honecker,
Krenz's predecessor as party
leader, and 11 other members of
the hard-line old guard were ex-
pelled from the party, three for-
mer Politburo members were ar-
rested and the country's chief of
trade with the West fled.
Authorities are investigating
a negations of massive corruption,
A spokesman for the new party
committee, Gregor Gysi, said its
immediate task would be to in-
vestigate corruption among the
discredited Communist elite.
"We want to form a modern
socialist party guided by the rank
and file. We want to save this
country. We want to save social-
ism said Gysi, a prominent East
Berlin lawyer.
The committee, given the
manda te of trying to sa ve the party,
will effectively rule as the party
prepares for a special congress on
Dec. 15 when it is expected to
choose new leaders. The party that
has ruled East Germany for all its
40 years has already abolished its
guaranteed monopoly on power
and promised free elections for as
early as next year.
It was not clear who will now
try to fill the leadership vacuum.
The popular opposition, still in its
infancy, remains poorlv organized
while the Communist Party has a
broad power base from which
leaders with grass-roots support
could emerge. Among the reform-
ers named to the new 25-membcr
party committee are Dresden
Mayor Wolfgang Berghofer and
the country's former spy chief,
Markus Wolf.
Huge demonstrations contin-
ued despite the party leaders'
resignation. Several hundred
thousand people joined hands to
form "human chains" in sections
across the country Sunday despite
freezing temperatures.
They held up signs calling for
the removal of the "Central Com-
mittee mafia" and imprisonment
forex-party "criminals Ata rally
attended by an estimated 10,000
people in East Berlin, speaker af
ter speaker grabbed the micro-
phone to denounce the Commu-
nists.
Many questions remained
unanswered Sunday night, not the
least of which is how the Soviet
Union will react it the country
plunges further toward instabil-
ity. There are nearl) 400,000 So-
viet troops in East (Germany, v hich
still remains vital to Warsaw Pact
military strategy despite improve-
ments in East-West ties.
The new party committee will
rule until a new leadership is
chosen bv the congress. Premier
Hans Modrow remains in charge
of the government, although e en
that is officially under Commu-
nist domination.

mer leadersexpelled Sunday were
suspected of "serious violations

retary in the foreign trade minis-

Teachers criticize testing system
GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) ?
Standardized testsincreasinglyare
coming under fire from teachers,
researchers and others who be-
lieve South Carolina has attached
too many incentives and placed
too much emphasis on the exams.
Standardized tests help gauge
the reform movement. But they
also play a role in determining
which students are promoted to
the next grade, which teachers get
bonuses, which schools receive
awards or are deemed impaired
and need state intervention, and
which textbooks can be used in
classrooms.
"Testing is getti ng way out of
hand, and we're placing too much
emphasis on standardized tests
and not enough on instruction
said Sheila Gallagher, president
of the South Carolina Education
Association.
"The purpose of education is
not to see how well you can per-
form on a test. It's to develop as a
person and move ahead in the
world
Many researchers, however,
believe the abundanceoftestsuscd
in South Carolina and the "high-
stakes" atmosphere surrounding
them have forced school curricula
into a secondary role.
A 1988 study by the National
Center for Fair and Open Testing
(FairTest), a Cambridge, Mass
bascd test reform advocacy group,
showed that South Carolina re-
quires almost twice as many tests
as the national average.
FairTest said the state man-
dated 74 tests for each student
enrolled in kindergarten through
the 12th grade in 1986-87, com-
pared with 44 tests per student
nationwide.
Although teachers have ques-
tioned why the state needs two
basic skills tests ? the national
Comprehensive Test of BasicSkills
and the state Basic Skills Assess-
ment Program ? state Superin-
tendent of Education Charlie Wil-
liams defended the dual testing
program. Williams said the BSAP
measures how well students are
grasping the learning objectives
developed by the state, while the
CTBS compares South Carolina
students with a national sample.
"I don't think an extra day or
two of teaching would benefit the
children as much as those addi-
tional tests help us determine
where we need to improve he
said.
But tying test scores to school
and teacher incentives has trans-
formed tests from a way to moni-
tor student progress into the
method of choice to accomplish
reform, said Lorrie Shepard, a
professor of education at the Uni-
versity of Colorado who has stud-
ied standardized testing pro-
grams. Ms. Shepard said standard-
ized tests are more prevalent in
Southern states that began school
reform movements in the 1980s.
The FairTest survey shows that
Georgia, North Carolina and other
nearby states require more tests
than South Carolina.
"The policymakers who de-
veloped some reform agendas
tried to make something happen
by means of test scores she said.
"I'm concerned that we're placing
so much emphasis on scores that
thev're going up without the cor-
responding improvement in ac-
tual achievement
Some teachers said they felt
pressure to ensure their students
performed well on standardized
tests, and that burden also
weighed heavily on students. But
Williamssaidindividualsputsuch
pressure on themselves and it
shouldn't be blamed on the sys-
tem.
"Most of the things based on
the test are rewards and incen-
tives that should reflect good in-
struction, so no one should feel
pressured unless they haven't
taught or learned what's ex-
pected he said.
Still, intense classroom pres-
sure to succeed on tests indicates
that the state's basic skills testing
program might be causing more
problems than it is solving, said
Mary j. Willis, Go Carroll
Campbell'sexecutiveassistantfor
education.
"We probablv need to rethink
how the state is built (in standard-
ized tests she said. "We needed
to have those measurements in
place to begin moving forward,
but I really do think we have prob-
lems when we rely that hea ily on
test scores
Ms. Willis said the Education
Improvement Act included pro-
visions to gauge shcxl perform-
ance on factors other than tests,
including parental involvement
and student attitudes. She also said
other states have abandoned tests
in some instances in i.w or of ana-
lyzing a portfolio of student as-
signments from an entire year.
Williams said such measures
are not reliable enough, expensive
to develop and time-consuming
to assess.
"Our accountability system
has received glowing praise from
around the country, and we have
shown marked improvement in
the past five years in part because
of (testing) Williams said.
"1 don't care how much people
complain. Unless they show me
something that could do a better
job than the one we ve been doing,
I'm not going to scrap what we
have
Fuel leaks contaminate Greensboro water table
GREENSBORO (AP) ? Rec-
ords show North Carolina has
investigated at least six leaks at a
Greensboro petroleum tank farm
where a potentially massive pool
of gasoline and diesel fuel has
formed underground.
Groundwater was contami-
nated at four of those company
facilities, and at two, petroleum
products were floating beneath the
surface, according to the N.C.
Division of Environmental Man-
agement In at least five of those
six cases action has been taken to
clean up the contamination; in
several, the cleanup has been
completed, according to files from
the division's Winston-Salem of-
fice.
The sixth leak was reported
this week: Property owners near
the a Ryder Truck Rental facility
have noticed a petroleum prod-
uct, perhaps gasoline, puddling
on their lawns, according to a
handwritten note dated Monday.
The files do not indicate if follow-
up action has been taken. Efforts
to reach the Ryder facility man-
ager were unsuccessful.
Other oil-company leaks the
state has investigated have in-
cluded Gulf Oil Corp Exxon
Corp Shell Oil Co Astroline
Corp. and GNC Energy Corp
according to the files. At the Gulf
facility, more than seven inches of
petroleum was discovered float-
ing on the water table in a test well
in June 1987. As recently as Sep-
tember 1988, more than five inches
of the contamination was meas-
ured in the well.
During 1987, a small amount
of petroleum was floating in a well
at the Shell facility, but that was
removed and did not reappear,
according to the state files. In
addition, the files show, contami-
nation from leaks at the Exxon
and Astroline complexes reached
the groundwater.
Meanwhile, state Sen. Bob
Shaw, R-Guilford, urged officials
on Friday to shut down tiie tank
farm unless the oil companies
immediately start to clean up the
pollution.
"It is a problem created by the
people on the property said
Shaw, ranking Republican on the
Senate Environment Committee.
"It is a problem they should have
been working on. They should
solve it. They should pay for it
The presence of some petro-
leum compounds in the soil in
other parts of the tank farm comes
as no surprise to some state and
local officials, because the facility
has been operating for almost 50
years.
State and local officials hope
this week to persuade oil compa-
nies operating there to help with a
comprehensive survey of the en-
tire area to present a clearer pic-
ture of the extent of contamina-
tion. At least 93 drinking wells
surrounding the tank farm are
being tested for possible water
contamination, Larry Leach, the
Guilford County environmental
health director, said Friday
Dr. Joseph Holliday, the
Guilford Health Department di-
rector, formed the group after the
Greensboro News & Record asked
about a contaminated pool that
apparently stretches under U.S.
421 and may be five feet deep in
places.
With 14oil companiesand two
pipeline companies at the tank
farm, the source of the contamina-
tion might be hard to pinpoint,
said Larry Coble, the state's re-
gional director of environmental
management.

Incinerator decision approaches

North Carolina will join a regional
agreement that would put a chemi-
cal-waste incinerator, a landfill
and a recovery unit somewhere in
the state by December of 1991.
It was difficult to get the
agreement said Don Reason, an
aide to Gox. im Martin who
helped negotiatethedeal between
the states "Siting (the facilities) is
another problem altogether. The
not-in-my-backyard mentality
surfaces every time
Martin wants legislators to
rove an agreement in which
North Carolina would treat some
ds ot hazardous wastes, and

pose ot other tvpes.

inerator, which removes 99.9
percent of the toxic substances in
waste, would be the size oi a
cement-mixing truck.
A landfill the size oi three
football fields to dispose oi the ash
from the incinerator.
? A recovery unit, about the
size of a pickup truck, to treat and
recycle 15,000 tons a year of haz-
ardous solvents.
1 he landfill wouldn't be the
kind that would take untreated
hazardous waste, which can
damage water and soil if the waste
leaks. And the state wouldn't
"stabilize waste mix it with
lime or other materials to produce
a solid block that would then be
stored
Phe three facilities could fit on
10 to 13 acres but more likely will
include a butter zone of at least
200 acres. The location for the
facilities would be chosen by the
N.C. Hazardous Waste Manage-
ment Commission, a nine-mem-
ber board named by the governor
and legislators.
"It'sa very good deal forN'orth
Carolina Beason said.
Businesspeople tend to agree.
Thev need a place to ship their
hazardous waste.
"It affects everybody, from
your corner drv cleaner to photo
finishers to garage owners and
printing plants said Susan
Valauri, state director of the Na-
tional Federation oi Independent
Business.
Cthers aren't so sure about
the agreement. State Sen. Henson
Barnes, D-Wayne, the highest-
ranking Senate Democrat, said he
expected the legislature to approve
the agreement during their spe-
cial session that begins on I'hurs-
day. But he said he didn't like the
landfill for the ashes, although he
said that would be better than a
landfill for all kinds of hazardous
waste.
"That's the sugar that makes
the medicine of having a landfill
go down easier " he said.
Some people including envi
ronmental groups, iron t con-
vinced that the statt needs an
incinerator and the accompany-
ing facilities. Thev would like the
state to first work toward getting
industry to reduce the waste it
produces.
Among these people is Patri-
cia Link of western Rowan County.
Two vears ago, "I didn't even
know whata county commissioner
was she said. Now she helps
lead a Rowan County group of
environmentalists who are fight-
ing to keep a hazardous-waste or
low-level radioactive waste facil-
ity out of their county.
North Carolina has a financial
incentive for approving the re-
gional agreement. Without the
pact, the U.S. Environmental Pro-
tection Agencv probably would
withhold about $? million dur-
ing the next two years to clean up
two hazardous waste sites in the
state.
If thefull legislature meetsjust
Thursday and Friday, as is ex-
pected, the cost of the spinal ses-
sion will be about $35,000. "But it
won't cost as much as if we don't

THE EAST CAROLINIAN
DECEMBER 5, 1989
Nuclear waste site operates responsibly
BARNWELL, S.C. (AP) ? The
company selected to operate North
Carolina'slow-level nuclear waste
site has run its 18-year-old landfill
responsibly after initial criticisms
about safety, said state regulators,
company officials and environ-
mentalists.
Chem-Nuclear Systems Inc.
promises to make the North Caro-
lina facility a "model of excellence"
by relying on its record of waste
disposal, safety and environ-
mental monitoring at the South
Carolina site.
Despite that claim, state and
federal regulators have cited the
company for 37 violations ? some
as recent as 1981 ? at the 72-acre
Barn well landfill. Most dealt with
radiation control, properly run-
ning the disposal trenches or rec-
ord-keeping.
The harshest criticism came
in a 1973 report by David Eben-
hack, then an inspector for the
state Department of Health and
Environmental Control and now
general manager for Chem-
Nuclear's North Carolina reposi-
tory. The report faulted Chem-
Nuclear for haphazard operation,
including handling drums filled
with radioactive waste so roughlv
they broke open in the trenches.
"There seems to be a certain
lack of sincerity on the part of
Chem-Nuclear's management
Ebenhack wrote. "The violations
are few in number but impor-
tant in scope
But a DHEC official said last
week Chem-Nuclear has corrected
early flaws at the site and is a
responsible waste operator.
"To us, they have gone be-
yond regulatory requirements to
ensure health and safety and envi-
ronmental protection said Virgil
Autry, director of the agency's
division of radioactive material
licensing and compliance.
The planned Chem-Nuclear
site in North Carolina will take
low-level nuclear waste fromeight
Southeastern states, including
South Carolina, beginning in 1993.
Possible locations are in Union,
Rowan, Richmond and Wake-
Chatham counties.
According to Autry, DHEC
records and Chem-Nuclear:
? DHEC has never fined
Chem-Nuclear for violations. The
department, however, has penal-
ized out-of-state waste genera tors
which shipped sloppily packed
nuclear waste to Chem-Nuclear.
? DHEC did not win author-
ity to impose fines until 1980.
Autry said the 1981 violations ?
mostly procedural ? were not
serious enough to warrant a fine,
which could run as high as $25,000
a day per violation.
? DHEC has found no viola-
tions at the site since 1981. Autry
said the uncompleted I989inspec-
tion report will show no viola-
tions.
? No worker has ever been
exposed to too much radiation.
The highest exposure to a worker
wasl,900milliremsin 1981, about
40 percent of the federal yearly
maximum.
? DHEC and Chem-Nuclear
have documented one leak in the
t9 waste trenches. Rainwater has
carried radioactive tritium lOOfeet
awav from one trench.
Opponents of the proposed
North Carolina repository point
to the 75-foot-wide tritium plume,
discovered in 1978, to back their
claim that waste sites can leak
dangerous radioactivity. But
DHEC and Chem-Nuclear both
say the public health threat is
minor.
Radioactive concentrations in
the plume exceed federal safe
drinking water standards. But
there are no drinking water wells
in the plume's downhill path, ei-
ther on the site or off-site, accord-
ing to Chem-Nuclear and DHEC.
At current ground water rates,
the tritium will take 41 years to
leave the site. DHEC believes that
by then, the tritium'sradiation will
be below federal standards, which
allow no more than a dose of 25
millirems a year to a member of
the public. Autry said the only
way to receive radiation from the
tritium was to drink tntium-con-
taminated water.
John Zawacki, Chem-Nuclear
general manager, said the tritium
plume is only as potent as the
tritium needed to light two selt-
illuminating exit lights in movie
theaters. He said Chem-Nuclear
sealed the trench in 1981, so no
more tritium has entered the
plume. "We monitor it he said.
"It's not building anymore
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission also inspects Chem-
Nuclear because the company is
licensed to dispose of "special
nuclear materials" such as ura-
nium. Spokesman Ken Clark said
last week the NRC had cited
Chem-Nuclear for five violations
in 1970,1974 and 1978. There were
no fines.
The garbage is mostly cloth-
ing, gloves, sheets of plastic and
water-purifying beads trom nu-
clear plants. It also contains mate-
rial from hospitals and research
institutions.
In its early days, Chem-Nu-
clear did not have such high re
gard trom regulators and the
Barnwell County community.
Ebenhack, author of the critical
inspection report in 1973, said he
used strong words because "1
wanted to get their attention. And
I d id-
He said the four-vear-old
company was "meag rlv financed
then" and he saw a potential for
future safety problems. Ebenhack,
who joined Chem-Nuclear in 1979,
said that after the first few years,
"there was a significant shift in
(the company's) philosophy
Both DHEC and Chem-Nu-
clear were beginners then at nu-
clear waste disposal.
"It was learning bv trial and
error, just as the state was learning
by trial and error said Michael
Lowe, former director of the Pal-
metto Alliance, a now-disbanded
anti-nuclear group that monitored
the site.
"(hem-Nuclear has re-
sponded to public pressure and
cleaned up their act Lowe said.

The same group, Greenpeace
USA, was successful in halting a
Trident 2 launch from the Tennes-
see July 28 by dispatching the
motorized rafts, called Zodiacs,
into the launch area in the Atlantic

Even so, a performance report

"We reached the point two

the Land Qualify Section was

and so we started a self-policing

Jenkins said it erosion viola-

when erosion at the Linville By-

tract suspended for almost three
weeks, until the problem was
corrected, said Wade Hoke, the
division engineer in North
Wilkesboro. The upshot, Jenkins
said, is that more work on roads
won't automatically mean more
impaired streams.
"We're going to expand our
inspections and engineers and be

Star professors make big
By MIKE McQUEEN
Gannett Newt Service
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. ? Wil-
liam Glenn, an expert in high-
definition television, finds that
universities covet him like they
would a golden-armed quarter-
back or a 7-footer with a silky-
smooth jump shot.
"I'm constantly getting job
offers ? one every two months, it
seems says Glenn, one of the
superstar professors suddenly
benefiting from a brain boom on
college campuses.
Even little-known universities
seem willing to fork out up to
$150,000 to academics who will
set up nationally recognized pro-
grams. The offer that lured Glenn
away from New York Institute of
Technology came from tiny state-
run Florida Atlantic University in
Boca Raton.
They agreed to pay him
$! 14,350 to head a high-definition
TV research team. That means
Glenn will pull down three times
the average oi his FAU teaching
colleagues.
"It seems like a dream offer -
the warm climate, the university
was aggressive about beefing up
itselectrical engineering program,
and they had bright graduate stu-
dents to work with he says.
The demand for these profes-
sors ? who typically teach busi-
ness or science ? is growing as
the pool of academics in these
fields declines. The professors can
bring such prestige to a school
that they demand and receive
generous salaries, lighter teach-
ing loadsand state-of-the-art labo-
ratories.
"What it does when you get
one of these superstars is it creates
instant success in your research
programs said Kenneth Klieuer,
dean oi the school of science at
Purdue. "You move up almost
overnight into the big leagues
"The competition for super-
stars is so fierce because schools
are trying to go after the same big
talent said Robert Rosenzweig,
president oi the Association of
American Universities, represent-
i ng about b0 eli te research-oriented
schools.
College administrators are re-
cruiting top talent by offering
"packages" that can cost a univer-
sity more than $500,000. Sometimes
a lot more. It might include a salary
of $150,000, extra travel money to
conduct research, guaranteed sum-
mer employment, plans to beef up a
science laboratory, a promise to
assign graduate assistants to help,
access to computers and secretarial
assistance.
"The numbers we're talking
about nowadays would have been
unheard of only a few years ago
said Gene Hemp, interim provost at
the University of Florida, the only
Florida college in the prestigious
AAU. Last year it had to offer to
install new physics lab equipment
to keep professor Pierre Raymond
from fleeing to a higher-paving )ob
at Yale.
It costs usa good sum of money,
but you're going to have to pay to be
in the big leagues Hemp savs.
Princeton wasn't so lucky. It
lost noted economist Sanford Gross-
man to the University of
Pennsylvania's Wharton School of
Business. Grossman's reported
package: $250,000, including salary
and benefits.
Wharton is widely known for
raiding other universities. So is
Duke, which lured Henry Louis
Philippine violence continues;
reports predict up to 69 killed
By EILEEN GUERRERO
The Associated Pre
MANILA, Philippines (AP)-
Refusing to end their 4-day-old-
mutiny, rebel soldiers positioned
in hotelsand high-rises fired semi-
automatic weapons and recoilless
rifles today at government troops
in the Makati financial district.
For a third day, hundreds of
Americans and other foreigners
were pinned down in homes and
hotels in the wealthy district where
forces loyal to President Corazon
Aquino had contained the muti-
neers to 22 buildings. At least 10
people were reported slain in
Makati today and 15 wounded,
including one American, by rebel
snipers and in fighting between
rebel and loyalist forces, hospital
sources said.
Government troops forced the
surrender of more than 600 rebels
on Sunday. Defense Secretary-
Fidel Ramos said the most serious
challenge to Mrs. Aquino's three-
and-a-half-year rule had been
crushed although it could take
days to complete "mopping up
operations
Several miles away in Makati,
which insurgents seized Saturday,
rebels in one instance fired a re-
coilless rifle at troops guarding an
office building, causing extensive
damage and sending bystanders
racing for cover. Government
forces appeared reluctant to at-
tack for fear of killing foreigners.
The hospital sources identi-
fied the American wounded to-
day as Jerome Weissburg, who
they said was hit in the arm as he
watched the shooting from his
room at the Peninsula Hotel. They
had no hometown for Weissburg.
At least 6 people have
been killed and more than 5(X)
wounded since mutineers seized
several military installations and
bombed the presidential palace
Friday.
Gates Jr regarded as the nation's
leading scholar of black literature,
from Cornell. He joins Duke's
English department next semes-
ter ? and so does a philosophy
professor who worked closely
with Gates at Cornell.
Duke officials would not re-
turn calls to discuss Gates' salary
package. The school has said it
intends to build a reputation as a
center for the study of race and
gender.
Not all the superstars wind
up at Ivy League-level universi-
ties. The University of South Flor-
ida in Tampa, for example, snared
Shirley and Ting Chu, an interna-
tionally known husband-wife
team of microelectronics research-
ers, from Southern Methodist
University. USF paid them a
combined annual $140,000 salary,
and put $300,IXX) into renovating
itselectronics laboratory for them.
"This team has done some of
the most avant-garde work in the
country in electronics. We went
after them and we got them says
Michael Kovac, engineering col-
legedean who recruited theChus.
But Kovac, like other admin-
istrators, frets about the loyalties
of purloined profs. What if an-
other university dangles a more
attractive package?
"Hie reality hesays, "is that
you get superstars and you have
to increase their salary every three
or four years or someone else is
going to come along with a better
offer
Administrators at Ten pie
University, a state school in Phila-
delphia, share Kovacs w rry.
"It seemslikeeverv w . kthere
.ire faculty members who come
i n to a dea n 's office a nd ay t hey' ve
been offered $20,000 to $30,000
more than we can afford to pay

Cathy Gossinger, assistant to the
president. "The situation is not

Juvenile corrections facility employees use
restraint belts in subduing violent youths
THE EAST CAROLINIAN DECEMBF.R 5. 1989 11
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) ?
Forty oi the Department of Youth
Services' 275 officers begin this
n eek using new restraint belts they
hope will give added protection
against violent youth in theircare.
The belts, already used in the
adult prison system can deflect
Mows, pull youths off each other
during a fight and restrain a
youth's arms and legs.
The new equipment comes as
; S officials cope with a 76 per-
cenl increase over three years in

incidents, usually assaults. In 1988,

such calls totaled 783.
"I have often been asked if
this is a Boy Scout camp or a
prison DYSCommissioner Rich-
ard McLawhom said. "My answer
is we're a juvenile corrections fa-
cility- devoted to treating and re-
habilitating troubled youth. But
you can't treat them if vou can't
control them he said.
If the belts prove successful,
Lawhorn said he wants all correc-
tions officers trained to use them.
If not, he said, he wants the offi-
cers trained to use wrist holds.
McLawhom, who took over
Continued from page 10
the agency in August, said teach-
ers may eventually receive train-
ing in the new restraint belts.
"I don't want anybody get-
ting the idea we're letting a bunch
of Kung Fu artists loose in here,
but we have to protect ourselves
he said. "Anybody who does not
follow the strict guidelines and
uses holds that are not taught will
be brought up on child-abuse
charges
The only DYS officers who
already know defensive maneu-
vers are the public safety officers,
who are trained at the South Caro-
lina Criminal.
DYS officials blame the vio-
lence on such things as the juve-
niles' background and overcrowd-
ing at the facility. In one maxi-
mum security dorm, two inmates
sleep in rooms designed for one;
six sleep in a room designed for
two; and cots a re stretched so close
along a wall that a child can roll
over during the night and touch
the inmate in the next bed.
"You can take the best of juve-
niles and pack them on top of each
other, and their tolerance level is
going to be low said corrections
officer Patricia Jones.
attribute the intense bidding wars
vr top-flight faculty members to a
basic business maxim: supply and
demand. An unusually high
number of senior faculty mem-
bers professors who joined
colleges during America's Sput-
nik era oi the 1950s and '60s - are
expected to retire in the next dec-
ade. There will not be enough
newly minted Ph.D.s to replace
them.
The high pay for superstars is
seating salary inflation across the
hoard, administrators and profes-
sors sav.
"It is not uncommon for me to
fter a young physicist 1
mean someone who recently got
their Ph.D. and is good ? ami try
to put together a $200,000 pack-
age says Purdue's Klieuer.
The high salaries tor super-
stars in science and business is
creating bad feelings on campus.
Professors in the liberal arts and
other fields often draw a starting
salary oi $30,000 far less than
that offered to scientists. Admin-
istrators sav thev do not tell col-
leagues what they've offered a top-
flight professor.
"Some professors resent it, but
I think the overwhelming feeling
is one of resignation says 1 tow-
ard Ziff, a journalism professor at
the University of Massachusetts.
"It's like baseball the super-
stars make the good money, the
rest draw a decent paycheck

Schools paying top talent well
Top rated professors often command salaries of $100,000 when
recruited to work at the nation's top research-oriented universities. For
example, technology wizard William Glenn made $114,550 last year at
Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Fla. On average, college
professors earn $39,410. Below are some well-known schools and the

Attorney general challenges drilling
MANTEO,N.C(AP) ?N.C
Attorney General Lacy Thornburg
said he will challenge in court a
plan to drill an exploratory well
off the Outer Banks if another
study on the project is not com-
pleted, and a congressman said he
would introduce federal legisla-
tion to delay the drilling.
A draft environmental report
on Mobil Oil Corps plans came
under attack Monday at the first
? ' ur public hearings on the
rt. More than 150 people at-
tended the hearing sponsored bv
federal Minerals Management
Service, the U.S. Department oi
interior agency that would
issue permits for outer continen-
helf drilling.
"Unless (the Minerals Man-
agement Service) is willing to
make a real study o( the impacts
on North Carolina, I will challenge
them in court said state Attor-
ney General Lacy Thornburg, a
IX'mocrat. "I firmly believe that 1
an succeed
U.S. Rep. Walter Jones, D-
N. announced at the hearing
that he will sponsor a bill in Con-
- to suspend Mobil's drilling
until at least October 1991.
"For over 15 months, I've
worked with the state, the Interior
Department and Mobil to try to
h an accommodation that
uld satisfy the residents of the
ngressional District Jones
said. "Clearly that hasn't hap-
pened. At this point, my opinion
is firm. We are not adequately
prepared to make such a monu-
mental decision
(ones, chairman of the U.S.
House Committee on Merchant
Marine and Fisheries, said Mobil
has failed to prove no harm will
come to the coast. He said his bill
would expand an ongoing study
ot ocean currents to cover "addi-
tional areas of environmental and
economic concern" and leave it
up to a scientific panel to decide
the merits of exploration.
ones said he has already
asked the Interior IX'partment to
halt further action on the Mobil
project and hold all least's, plans
and permits until Oct. 1,1991. But
he said the legislation, to be intro-
duced in fanuary, would mandate
the same things.
A representative of Gov. Jim
Martin's administration said
Mobil should not proceed with its
plans.
"The state believes Mobil
cannot and should not begin to
drill next year said William W.
Cobev r secretary of the North
Carolina Department of Environ-
ment, Health and Natural Re-
sources.
The report assesses ecological
and socio-economic impacts of the
Mobil project. It was submitted
Nov. 1 under an agreement
reached last Julv arming Mobil as
well as state and federal officials.
The draft document was de-
nounced by more than half of those
who spoke during the three-hour
afternoon session, the Virginian-
Tilot of Norfolk, Va. reported. In
addition to state officials, envi-
ronmentalists protested the min-
erals service report.
"The tailor-made environ-
mental report is inadequate and
hastily prepared said Nancy B.
Gray, who spoke on behalf of
LegaSea, an Outer Banks-based
environmental group formed to
oppose Mobil's project. "It is so
sloppy and so frought with errors
that there is no way to correct its
flaws It is almost laughable, if
only the consequences were not
so serious
"On one page alone I found
seven mathematical errors said
Gary Cove, an Ocracoke resident
and former college math teacher.
"That really concerns me about
the quality of the report

German student discusses political changes
By SUZAN LAWLER
Suit Wntir
A photocopied picture of the
Berlin Wall is taped on the door of
Room 171 in ones Hall. The capi-
talized caption underneath the
picture reads, "NO MORE
Markus Fuchs, a junior at
ECU, put up the picture. Fuchs is
trom West Germany. His parents
currently live in Altlussheim, West
Germany.
Fuchs. like people all over the
world, rejoiced on Nov. 9 when
the Berlin Wall was opened. He
heard about the event on the na-
tional news and immediately lis-
tened to the German news on
shortwave radio.
Fuchs said he was totally
unprepared for the event. "I was
stunned. It's a great thing
While Fuchs lived in West
Germany, he often heard reports
of East Germans being shot while
attempting to get over the Wall.
He said the deaths angered him,
and he's glad it no longer will
continue.
Now that the Wall allows
people to leave or enter the coun-
try, some 225,000 East Germans
have flooded into West Germany.
West Germans are concerned
about the population surge and a
few have even suggested setting
legal limitson immigration. Fuchs
said he thinks that East Germans
should have unlimited access to
his country, simplv because "thev
are Germans
When the Wall came down,
the issue of reunification came up.
West German Chancellor Helmut
Kohl declared, "I have no doubt
that unitv will eventually be
achieved
Fuchs said, "I'm hoping for it,
but as long as they belong to dif-
ferent military pacts, I don't think
it will be possible
Another current issue is
whether the United States should
encourage or trv to prevent reuni-
fication. On Nov. 15, TIMECNN
polled SOOadultsand 55 thought
the United States should try to
encourage reunification and 14
thought the United States should
try to prevent it. Fuchs com-
mented, "If they (the Germans)
move towards it, the United States
should encourage it. Of course,
they should let the Germans do
whatever they want
"I don't think (reunification)
would be any better or worse, just
the fact that all the Germans are
together again ? that would be
better
Fuchs plans to visit East Ger-
many this summer, but will re-
turn to ECU to complete school.
Fuchs originally came to ECU as
an exchange student. "I liked it so
much I came back he said.
During his freshman year, he
attended the American University
in London. He is an Anthropol-
ogy major specializing in Archae-
ology. After graduation, he hopes
to work in the United States.
When Fuchs returns to Ger-
many this summer, he may find it
to be very different. Whether or
not the Germanics reunite, the
world hopes East Germany will
succeed in its struggle for democ-
racy. For now, we can rejoice in
the opening of the Wall. For 28
years it suppressed freedom

Pont let the word fool vou.
Mthough handicapped" is de-
1 as "being physically dis-
i d it is not intended to imply
lesser intellect or the inability to
perform everyday tasks. Just ask
one of the handicapped students
who attends Hast Carolina.
There are more than 25 of these
students, and thev are a vital part
of the University system. While
thev do not want pity or special
treatment, thev would like people
to understand and respect some
of the limitations that come with

but also on how easily they can ac-

Fast Carolina has boasted to

those kinds of handicaps? Who

The buildings on campus cre-
ate the major problems. Ulgcr said:
"Take for example the Brewster
Building, there are four wings with
only 'wo elevators, which pres-
ents a problem to me. The only
way I can enter the A wing is to go
all the way around to the front of
the building. And if I want to go
on the second or third floor while
I'm in another wing, I have to take
the elevator again and then travel
outside to get back to the same
building
According to Ullger, some of
the entrances in Brewster are less
than 23 inches wide. This is a prob-
lem to someone whose wheelchair
is 26 inches wide.
Shawn Kilpatrick agrees that
some of the buildings need im-
provement. Kilpatrick, who lives
in Cotten Dorm, is a business
education major. She once had to
take a computer class on the sec-
ond floor of Austin. Austin doesn't
have an elevator. "It presented a
real problem for me because I'm

All of the students who use
wheelchairs to travel on campus
have positive things to say about
ECU, its students and faculty,
especially Mr. C. C. Rowe, who is
director of Handicap Services.
However, all of the students
seemed to agree that the ramps on
campus are too steep, the new
cafeteria at Mendenhall needs a
front ramp entrance, and many of
the older buildings need elevators
and modifications.
Elizabeth Worden, a freshman
majoring in fashion and merchan-
dising, uses an electric wheelchair
to travel around campus. The
ramps don't give her any trouble,
but she understands that those
who use normal wheelchairs have
problems. She said, "The only

Two men from the same fam-
ily, yet not really knowing one
another, rediscover a relationship
together. One is the father, the
other, his son. They not only learn
about each other, but about them-
selves. "Dad" presents us with a
situation that can be precious
when dealing with family.
Jack Lemmon portrays the
father, Jake Tremont. Ted Danson
plays his son, John. When Jake's
wife, Bette (played by Olympia
Dukakis) suffersa heart attack and
is hospitalized, John comes home
to take care of his father.
John has not seen his family in
two years and he realizes every-
thing has changed. He sees how
lost his father is when his mother
is not there to do everything for
him.
She did everything from but-
tering his toast to putting tooth-
paste on his toothbrush. In one
scene, Jake is so helpless that he
cannot find his pajamas and asks
John where they are.
Once Bette returns from the
hospital Jake is diagnosed with
cancer. John takes rime off from
work to be with his father and
when Jake goes into a coma, John
moves into the hospital room. He
talks to his father and reads to him
with hopes he will come out of the
coma.
From the director of "Family
Ties" Gary David Goldberg makes
"Dad" his first major film project.
The movie is produced by the same
people who bring us "Back to the
Future part 2 Steven Spielberg,
Frank Marshall and Kathleen Ken-
nedy.
"Dad" is not just another
movie about family relationships.
It is a movie that deals with aging,
death, love and friendship. It is a
deep, emotional movie that will
cause people to think about life.
The movie has light moments that
take the audience from tears to
laughter.
The acting is superb and
Lemmon brings his character to
life, making everyone fall in love
with him.
The ending is no surprise, but
"Dad" is a movie that achieves
what it sets out to. It makes the
viewer realize how important each
member of a familv is and how
much a good relationship is
needed.
The movie has tender mo-
ments that capture hearts and
cause one to cry.
Overall, "Dad" is a grade A
movie that everyone should see
with tissues in hand.

Special to The East Carolinian
A double dose of entertain-
ment Friday night at the Attic
featured the rock and roll of The
Usuals and the Comedy Zone.
The return of the Usuals was
the main attraction. This band
recreates a '60s sound of classic
rock and roll and presents some
original songs of its own. Origi-
nally from Greenville, the Usuals
received a warm response from
the audience.
Led by singer and guitar
player Sam Madison, the group
mixes rock favorites, like David
Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust with its
own music. Their first album,
"Nothing to FearBut Life Itself'
features a variety of music. It
contains a reggae style in the song
"Abusing You" and an upbeat
rhythm in "High School" that was
very popular at the Attic gather-
ing.
Guitarist Pat Dickenson works
the entire show and sings old Led

Band plays fusion jazz at the Fizz

Webster's dictionary defines
jazz as syncopated, rythmic mod-
ern music. This does not help
much when trying to define the
type of music that a band plays.
However, when describing the
music of the band Spiral, one word
comes to mindHOT!
In an attempt to define what
kind of jazz Spiral plays, Russell
Sledge, bass player, said, "We play
music. Hopefully, good music
Members of their audiences say
there is no "hopefully" about it. It
is good music.
Russell said that many times
they are classified as fusion jazz,
which is vague, because its range
is so wide. Fusion is a mix of rock
(increased volume and a heavier
back beat) and jazz (a various
repertoire of tunes).
With Sledge on bass, Rodney
Howard in charge of drums and
percussion, Landy Spain on gui-
tar and Will Bridgeson saxophone,
the room almost seems to smoke.
These members are not all origi-
nal members of the band which
was formed in October of 1988.
But as some of them leave, others
are added to ensure their unique
music will continue fora long time
to come.
With the addition of Landy
Spain, the music of Spiral changed
slightly. Spain adds a bit of New
Orleans blues jazz to the songs.
Future plans for the group
include trying to get a demo tape
that includes their original music.
Unfortunately, there has not been
much time for composing, and still
lack enough new tunes. They plan
to stay together until graduation,
but they have no specific plans

Raleigh, have been busy this fall.
They have traveled a lot in the
south, going to Alabama and
Tennessee. They will return to the
Attic to entertain on New Year's
Eve and will bring quitea party to
Greenville.
Earlier in the evening the
Comedy Zone took center stage. It
had two comics and featured the
X-rated anricsof Mark Cline. With
a vulgar show, Cline had the
crowd laughing. The first guest
Alpine Bob was more laid-back
than Cline but impressive.
The Comedy Zone is a regular
event at the Attic on Wednesdays
and Fridays. In the past it has
featured comedians who have
performed on HBO, Showtime and
johnny Carson. It is quite a draw-
ing card for the Attic, creating a
variety of entertainment that
comes to the Greenville area.
Having music and comedy on
the same night is new to the Attic.
With the good turnout, this could
become a regular feature in up-
coming months.

Christmas trees bring hazards into homes
By EARL ARONSON
The AMOcfatcd Praia
It may be an unpleasant sub-
ject, but let's face it ? bugs get
into Christmas trees. Remember,
the trees grow outdoors, so you
shouldn't be surprised if insects
arrive at your home along with
the holiday decorations.
An Agricultural Extension
entomologist reminds us that in-
sects found on the trees arc quite
specific to various species, so it's
unlikely that they would get into
house plants or otherwise do
damage in the home.
The insect most likely to be
found travelingindoorsonChrist-
mas trees, says the entomologist,
is the white-pine aphid. The white
pine is a very popular Christmas
tree. The aphids come indoors as
eggs on the tree's needles and may
hatch as the tree becomes warm.
These tiny insects don't live long
in the warm, dry atmosphere of
the home, and those that do sur-
vive are likely to depart with the
tree after the holidays.
Jumping plantlice, which
spend the winter as adults, are
slightly larger relatives of the pine
.iphid. They live on blackberries
in summer, .uckm pla: i ju jes.
When the weather gets cold, they
move into pines and will do some
flying in the living room.
According to the entomolo-
gist, jumping plantlice are about
one-eighth of an inch long and tan
in color, and have two light stripes
on their wings.
Other pests that might hitch-
hike into your home on a Christ-
mas tree are several types of
sawflies, lacewings and spiders.
Sawflies generally prefer the
types of pines not usually used as
Christmas trees, but they might
lay eggs on white or Scotch pines.
When they hatch, the caterpillar-
like larvae feed on the tree's
needles. Like aphids, they don't
thrive in warm, drv houses, so
they probably would not last long
enough to cause much damage.
"If you just can't stand the
thought of having bugs in your
house, an insect spray that con-
tains pyrethrum would take care
of most of the things that might
come in on your trees the expert
advises. "These insects probably
won't survive long in the house,
however; they won't do any
damage and they'll leave when
the tree does. It's certainly noth-
ing to get excited about
Christmas Tree Safety Tips
Here's some advice from the
U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission on how to minimize
the risk of fire from your Christ-
mas tree:
? A dry tree is a fire hazard.
Before buying a tree, strike the
butt sharply against the ground.
A shower of needles means the
tree has dried out.
? Before placing the tree in
water, make a fresh cut at the trunk
to expose new wood for better
water absorption.
? Keep the tree stand's water
He iv
reservoir full. A fresh tree can
drink several gallons of water
during its first few days indoors.
? Never place a tree near a
fireplace, radiator or other heat
source. Keep the room cool to
minimize drying.
? Check each set of lights,
new and old, for broken or cracked
sockets, frayed or bare wires, and
loose connections. Discard dam-
aged lights or repair them before
using.

the help of his guide dog, he finds
no difficulty getting from class to
class. Whitney said, "1 have no
complaints about ECU. The stu-
dentsand staff really work hard to
help me and all are very- friendly
? something a lot of people don't
see ery often
Another student attending
East Carolina is Patricia Davis,
who says the school has helped
her a great deal. Davis, who is
legally blind but has some side
vision, uses tape recorders in class
and broad felt tip pens to take
notes.
Davisadded, "The University
has provided me a reader and
access to the Media Center to use
a visual tape machine that I need
to read with She said the addi-
tion of more railing, like on the
side of the General Classroom
Building, would help blind stu-
dents.
Another service that ECU
provides is special facilities for
hearing impaired students. Ac-
cording to Douglas Johnson, a
drafting major who is hearing
impaired, this university has 21
interpreters to assist deaf students.
He said the University could
do more. "They really need to
install TDD's in all theoffices such
as Housing, Counselor's and the
library. The TDD is a type of
phone-typewriter that hearing
impaired students use to commu-
nicate with others via telephone.
All of the handicapped stu-
dents who were interviewed
seemed interested in expressing
their graditude to the school and
staff and in expressing concerns
about what should be improved.
Kilpatrick suggested that a com-
mittee be formed each semester to
find out the specific problem ar-
eas that individual students might
be having.
"After all she said, "we are
the ones that have to deal with the

NEW YORK (AD ? Eat right.
Doing so can improve and even
prolong your lite, bv now, most
people probably know that. But
many still don't know how.
To help, the I f.S. Department
of Agriculture has launched a
campaign called "Eating Right
The Dietary Guidelines Way a
collection of tour colorful book-
lets that makes making the right
food choices easier.
"What we want consumers to
know is that thev can eat healthier
without changing all their eating
habits overnight or giving up their
favorite foods said Susan Welsh,
director of the nutrition education
division of the USDA's Human
Nutrition Information Service.
The booklets cover shopping,
quick meals, menus, making
lunches and snacks, desserts and
eating out. They're based on the
USDA's nutrition recommenda-
tions and are available from the
governrru nt'sConsumer Informa-
tion Center.
Unlike some efforts to im-
prove nutrition, this one starts
from what is known about the
way people eat. It accepts that
almost everyone snacks, but it
suggests wa) 5to make snacks part
of a hcalthv diet The books are
clear and filled with detailed in-
formation on what to do to im-
prove eating habits.
Many Americans would be
surprised at how easy it is to make
a significant change, Welsh said.
Salad dressings, for example,
contribute an average 9 percent of
total fat in women's diets.
The booklets, available from
the Consumer Information Cen-
ter, Dept. 70, Pueblo, Colo. 81009,
are:
?"Preparing Foodsand Plan-

Nudists lobby for bathing areas
The Associated Press
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.
(AD ? A proposal that the Ten-
nessee Valley Authority set aside
some of its land tor nude sunbath-
ing areas is getting a chilly recep-
tion from the federal utility com-
mission
The American Sunbathing
Association of Kissimmee, Fla
which boasts about 35,000 mem-
bers nationwide, has launched an
effort to persuade Congress to
open up federal land for sunbath-
ing in the buff.
The group has hired a lobby-
ist for $65,000 and even established
a political action committee called
Nl DFrACtocarrythenudistcase
to Washington, D.C.
"We feel that federal land can
easily be divided between nude
sections and non-nude sections,
which it already is in practice in
some areas said Arne Erikson,
the group's head. "This is already
very common in Europe
Personalized
gifts make
holidays special
The Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) - The gifts
one tends tii cherish most are of-
ten those that are made by hand
and reflect the tastes and interests
of the recipient ?- a needlepoint
pillow with a special phrase, a
hand-hewn treasure box, an ever-
lasting wreath themed to a spe-
cific decor, homemade jams and
jellies, cakes and cookies.
Although life's pace leaves all
too few with time to turn a prac-
ticed hand at hobbies or crafts,
there are ways to show creativity
without spending a lot of time or
money.
For familvor friends, consider
gifts that can become heirlooms.
Gifts of brass, china, crystal, pew-
ter, silverplate or sterling?either
new or from vour collection ? can
ho appreciated for generations.
Choose from vanity items such as
perfume bottles, atomizers, pow-
der bo vesand picture frames; desk
accessories such as letter openers
and paperweights; flower vases
and candlesticks; silver flatware
parceled out piece by piece.
Start a child with a sterling
pattern and continue with indi-
vidual pieces for birthdays and
holidays. Towie is among silver-
smiths who make infant spoons
and training sets in traditional
flatware patterns.
Antiquesalso make good gifts
for family as well as friends. Spool
boxes, cameos, pens and inkwells
are among affordable choices.
Akin to these and available in all
price ranges are coyote doorstops,
contemporary quilts, one-of-a-
kind sweaters, hand-made furni-
ture.
Or commission a local artist to
do a portrait of family or a render-
ing of the family home. To intro-
duce succeeding generations to
their roots, transfer old home
moviesof grand parentsonto vide-
otape, compileaphotoalbum, start
a family tree.
Pamper a loved one. For her,
give a day of beauty or a weekend
at a spa; for him, a health club
membership or a chance to im-
prove his serve at a tennis camp,
rn'nd newly weds on a hot-air bal-
loon trip, complete with picnic.
Give the young gourmet a course
in wines taught by a prominent
oenophile. Finally, don't underes-
timate the impact on new parents
of theater or movie tickets and a
paid-for babysitter.
For truly successful gift giv-
ing, the package is as important as
what's inside and should be a re-
flection of your style. Developing
a signature look can be a fun and
time saving approach. Have your
initials printed on ribbon, designer
style, or restrict yourself to solid
glossy paper with multi-colored
ribbonsand seasonal touchessuch
as flowers, holly and autumn
leaves. Keeping a consistent look,
and a supply of wrappings on
hand, will save time in the future.
And don't forget the card. Try
to give yourself as much time to
write your thoughts as to select
your presents. Honest sentiments
from the heart are still the most
touching expressions of affection
and friendship.
One of the agencies the grou p
wants to talk to isTV A, which has
more than 400,000 acres available
for public use, including 170,000
acres at Land Between the Lakes
in Kentucky.
But David Pack, manager of
operations and maintenance tor
TVA's public lands, said the
agency isn't ready to allow nude
sunbathing on any of it.
"We view such activity as in
violation oi local ordinances and
take the proper steps to get local
authorities to correct it Pack said
Actually, said Pack, there
really aren't that many people
interested in sunbathing on TV A
property.
"We've not had any real prob
lem with this and we ve not evei
been approached by any nudists
requesting any areas be set aside
for them said Pack.
"We enforce whatever local
v rd i na nces there may be and we' ve
had a few cases ot indecent expo-
sure But I m not aware ot any
TV A anas where there has been
any such sunbathing
But Erikson said nude sun-
bathing is legal at several state
parks in Oregon and lexas. and
the National Park Service already
allows such activity at several ot
its parks.
"We're trying to do what we
can to convince these agencies to
recognize that nude sunbathing is
neither a moral nor a social prob-
lem ?nd it can be properly man
aged ' said Fnkson.
We're not looking to disturb
am one but there area lot ot people
who want to sunbathe nude, so
why shouldn't there be some land
set aside tor that V
Representatives of the group
plan to meet with National Park
Service officials next week to ask
that beach areas be reserved for
nudesunbathers. Agency officials,
however, say they have no plans
to do so.
"Thereare no federal laws that
prohibit this activity, but we do
adhere to local ordinances viid
George Berklacy, director of pub
lie affairs tor the park service
The only exception to the
government's hands-ott policy,
Berklacy said, came in 1985 when
the park service banned nude
sunbathing at a Cape Cod beach
"for environmental purposes"
because of people trampling the
dunes trying to get a peck at the
nudists
"The naked truth is that we
don't intend to write regulations
permitting nude sunbathing
Berklacv said.

Bomb testing may be unnecessar
"?w
ByTIMDAHLBERG
response to
MERCURY, Nev. (AP) ? For
38 years, the government has
exploded nuclear weapons at the
Nevada Test Site. Bombs have
been dropped from airplanes and
exploded atop tall towers. They've
been buried deep underground
and in tunnels. At least one was
launched withanair-to-air rocket.
lneveryoneof697announced
tests, there's been one constant.
"They've always gone off
said Paul Brown, head of the De-
fense Systems Arms Control of-
fice at Lawrence Livermore Na-
tional Laboratory. "Sometimes the
yields haven't been what we ex-
pected, but they've always gone
off
Given that nearly perfect track
ons in response to a changing
world. And there's a tremendously
significant need to improve the
safety of our current weapons
That view is challenged by a
senior physicist at Lawrence Liv-
ermore, where nuclear weapons
are designed. Ray Kidder, a 30-
year veteran of nuclear weapons
research, says current weapons are
both safe and reliable and con-
tends the only reason for contin-
ued testing is to develop new
warheads, such as one under
development that would burrow
underground before exploding.
In a 1987 report to Congress,
Kidder refuted the Reagan
administration's contention it
needed to test weapons from stock-
piles to ensure they worked.
"With the exception of a few
rence forever without new test-
ing
Nuclear weapons have a shelf
life of only about 20 years before
they start deteriorating, but Kid-
der argued in his study that scien-
tists would be able to manufac-
ture new ones based on old de-
signs without the need for new
testing.
"I think he underestimates the
difficulty of remanufacturing
these weapons Brown said.
"We've tried to remanufacture
things and there have been prob-
lems that surprised usat the time
An evolving knowledge of nuclear
science has seen testing schedules
reduced to an averageof little more
than one explosion a month in the
last decade.
Since U.S. testing began with
the detonation of the first atomic
bomb, a 15-kiloton blast in July
1945 at Alamogordo, N.M 825
U.S. nuclear weapons have been
detonated, 697 of those since test-
ing was moved to its current loca-
tion little more thananhour'sdrive

"Reliability is one reason, but

said. "Almost anybody that

Survey reports Americans
feel Bush is too cautious
ByGARYLANGER
Thr AM'ujtcd lr9
NEW YORK (AD ? Ameri-
ca ns gi ve M ikhai 1 Gorbachev more
credit than President Bush for
lessening East-West tensions, and
nearly eight in 10 believe the So-
viet leader seeks true reform in his
country, according to a poll.
The Media General-Associ-
ated Press survey found suspi-
cions of the Soviet Union's inten-
tions fading rapidly, with a major-
ity of Americans now convinced
that the Soviets do not seek world
domination.
Bush and Gorbachev, whoare
meeting in a shipboard summit
oft Malta this weekend, won ex-
ceedingly high popularity marks,
with roughly seven in 10 respon-
dents rating each favorably.
Their summit comes at a time
of momentous change in the
communist world. While Gor-
bachev pushes reforms in the
Soviet Union, his Eastern Euro-
pean allies in recent weeks have
moved dramatically away from
political domination by their
Communist parties.
Forty percent of the 1,117
adults surveyed Nov. 17-25 in the
continental United States rated
Bush as "too cautious" in encour-
aging reform in the Eastern Bloc;
46 percent said he was doing
enough. The rest were unsure.
Moreover, 41 percent said
Gorbachev has done more than
Bush to ease tensions, compared
with 29 percent who said Bush has
done more. The others weren't
sure.
To encourage Soviet reforms,
respondents by 2-1 favored estab-
lishing normal trade relations ? a
step the Bush administration is
exploring. A less likely move, for-
eign aid, was opposed bv seven in
10.
Goodwill toward Gorbachev
aside, the poll found lingering
doubt about Soviet reliability.
Fifty-three percent said the Sovi-
ets cannot be trusted to live up to
arms control agreements, down
from 61 percent in a poll last year
but still a majority.
Reflecting that cautious view,
52 percent opposed making sig-
nificant cuts in U.S. military spend-
ing because of lessened tensions.
The Bush administration is con-
templating large cuts in its mili-
tary budget.
Similarly, respondents split on
whether the United States should
remove all its troops from West-
ern Europe if the Soviets removed
theirs from Eastern Europe. Forty-
seven percent favored such a deal
and 42 percent were opposed, a
division within the poll's 3-point
error margin. The rest were un-
sure.
Respondents overwhelm-
ingly opposed immediate cuts in
U.S. troopsin Europeasa response
to the reforms. But among those
who were opposed, a majority
favored reductions later if reforms
continue.
While the respondents fa-
vored continued defense efforts,
just 35 percent said they believed
the Soviets seek to dominate the
world ? down from 50 percent
who held that view in a CBS News-
New York Times poll last spring.
Fifty-seven percent in the new
survey rejected the notion that the
Soviets seek world domination,
with the rest unsure.
Despite the split opinion on
Bush's encouragement of commu-
nist changes, 74 percent approved
of his overall handling of U.S
Soviet relations. Seventy percent
had a favorable opinion of Bush in
general.
Sixty-eight percent had a fa-
vorable view of Gorbachev, virtu-
ally the same rating as Bush's and
well up from 54 percent in a Media
General-AP poll in April 1988,
before a summit between Gor-
bachev and then-President Re-
agan.
Gorbachev was more popular
than Bush ? 85 percent to 65 per-
cent ? among respondents with
postgraduate educations. Gor-
bachev also outscored Reagan
among this group in 1988.
High regard for Gorbachev
translated into a generally opti-
mistic view of his chances for
success. Among the 77 percent
who believe he wants meaningful
reform in the Soviet Union, 60
percent expected him to succeed,
15 percent said he is likely to fail
and a quarter were unsure of the
outcome.

Chinese concerned about policies
Bush disappoints students
pressedfait
By STEPHANIE SCHOROW
The Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) - - Chinese
students are dismayed at Presi-
dent Bush's veto of a bill to let
them remain here after their visas
expire, saying he seems to be ex-
empting China from the human
rights standards held for other

nation's weapons program can
operate if there were a U.SSoviet
agreement limiting the size of
explosions.
Congress last year asked fed-
eral agencies and laboratories to
study how a test ban treaty with
the Soviet Union would affect U.S.
nuclear capabilities.
Current tests are restricted to
no more than 150 kilotons, the
explosive equivalent of 150,000
tons of TNT. The limit was set in a
1974 treaty never ratified bv Con-
gress. The United States and So-

November 1958 that ended in
September 1961 with the Soviets'
decision to resume testing. The
United States is on record as
wanting to agree to lower limits
before it will negotiate a test ban,
Brown said.
The two nations made history
last year when nuclear scientists
from each witnessed a test at the
other's secret site. Soviet scientists
witnessed a test at the Nevada site
in August 1988; American scien-
tists went to the Soviet site at
Semipalatinsk the following
month. The tests were aimed at
finding a verification method for
future limitationson nuclear tests.

Tracy Embrv, a senior thera-
peutic recreation major said, "It
gives me a y,ood feeling to work
with them. Even though thev
aren' t as intelligent as normal kids,
they deserve the same rights. It
has also taught me to spend my
time wisely
Tommy Spaulding, philan-
thropy chairman for Sigma Phi
Epsilon, felt that co-sponsoring the
Special Olympics will provide an
educational experience for the
fraternity and the students of ECU.
"We've got a couple of broth-
ers that have worked with Special
Olympicsbefore Spaulding said.
"One of our cardinal principles of
our fraternity is brotherly love,
and that's what it's all about in
fraternity. 1 can't wait for them to
come and work the three days. I
think they'll be personally re-
warded
"I want this to be a Sig Ep
sponsored event every year
Spaulding continued. "As long as
I'm here, I'm going to make sure
that this is an annual event, that
every year we'll do the soccer
tournament from now until I
graduate, and hopefully for years
to come
The Sig Eps will get the chance
to meet many of the participants
because they are the referees for
all of the games, as well as serving
food.
Sappenfield said that even a
child who is physically handi-
capped can play soccer because
"soccer can lend itself to any abil-
ity level The kids are continu-
ously able to pick up on soccer
because of the limited skill level.
"They can succeed and learn
to play together as a team Sap-
penfield added. "A lot of times, in
a classroom situation, these kids
aren't learning to play together as
a team.

Leftv Driesell said.
The second-year Dukescoach
said Friday that Alan Dorsey and
Doug Lowrey, who were dis-
missed from the team Thursday,
will keep their athletic scholar-
ships through the 1990-91 school
year.
Published reports earlier Fri-
day indicated that the players were
being ousted to free up scholar-
ships for new recruits, but Drie-
sell said that was not the case.
"Our basketball staff thought
the two youngsters could better
utilize their time by concentrating
on academics and giving us an
opportunity to work more closely
with the 13 remaining players in
our program Driesell said in a
statement issued by the school's
sports information office.
Lowrey, Dorsey and Alex
Clevinger, another junior on schol-
arship, were left behind when the
Dukes went to Hawaii last week-
end for a tournament. Clevinger's
father told the Daily News-Rec-

Big East-ACC Challenge finally a reality
ByJIMO'CONNELL
The Associated Press
NEW YORK ? Talk to the
coaches, and nobody wanted it.
Talk to the players and fans
and thev think it's a great idea.
The Big Fast ACC Challenge
was 10 years in the making, is
contracted for the next three sea-
sons and the first one started on
Monday night.
The first time the meeting of
two of the country's top college
basketball conferences was dis
cussed was in 1979 between Dave
Gavitt of the Big East and then-
commissioner Bob James of the
Atlantic Coast Conference. It
stayed on the backburner for a
decade until Gavitt and current
ACC boss Gene Corrigan worked
burgh of the Big Fast facing No. 21
Georgia Tech, those seedings w ere
still being mentioned by the
coaches.
The respective top seeds are
the Big Easfs Georgetown, ranked
third nationall v, and No. 12 North
outthedctailsandmanagedafour- Carolina. That game at the Mead
year television deal with ESPN.
The plan calls for four double-
headers in four days with the
teams meeting according to seed-
ings from a preseason coaches'
vote. Just days before the chal-
lenge gets started at the Hartford
Civic Center with No 18 Pitts-
owlands on Thursday night brings
close friends John Thompson and
Dean Smith into a rare non-NCAA
tournament meeting.
"The friendship is there and
like with a broth, i pouhavetosee
someone lose Smith said. "We
like to talk in general and discuss
basketball and that's not the same
when you're going to play each
other.
"I still think the coaches got
together and voted us number one
just to see us play each other
Jim Valvano of North Caro-
lina State, whose 25th-ranked
WolfpackplayNo.20St.John'son
Tuesday night in Greensboro,
N.C said that wasn't the case.
"Does he think wegot together
