N.C. joins five-state agreement
By Donna Hayes
Staff Writer
Here are a just few of the blood samples taken during Wednesday s
blood drive at Mendenhall (Photo by J.D. Whitmire-ECU Photo Lab
The state of North Carolina
has entered into a five-state agree-
ment for the disposal of hazard-
ous waste, making the state eli-
gible for a portion of money set
aside by the federal government
toassist states in the cleaning up of
abandoned toxic waste sites.
North Carolina joins Alabama,
Kentucky, South Carolina and
Tennessee in a two-year plan for
disposing of wastes that are con-
sidered hazardous. Any waste that
is ignitable, corrosive, reactive or
toxic is defined bv law as hazard-
ous.
The U.S. government had
previously approved a federal
regulation requiring each state to
devise a 20-year plan for manag-
ing hazardous waste by Oct. 17,
1989 with failure to comply result-
ing in the loss of federal funds
For the state of North Caro-
lina, failure to comply with the
regulation would have resulted in
a loss of approximately $26 mil-
lion for two sites currently under
consideration.
The new agreement, passed in
December, brings North Carolina
into compliance with federal regu-
lation and law; however, officials
said North Carolina may still lose
a portion of the Superfund money
since the agreement was signed
after the Oct. 17 deadline.
North Carolina's chemical and
allied industries generated ap-
proximately 2.8 billion pounds of
hazardous waste in 1988. Officials
maintained that most hazardous
waste is treated on site?90 per-
cent or 2.5 billion pounds -but at
least 300millionpoundsisshipped
out-of-state for treatment.
SouthCarolinahaspreviously
disposed of North Carolina's haz-
ardous waste that could not be
treated on site by the waste's pro-
ducers, but South Carolina hasalso
banned North Carolina from us-
ing the treatment facilities in the
past for various reasons. The new
agreement ensures that North
Carolina will have reliable access
to hazardous waste disposal sites.
Federal law requires that in-
dustries dispose of hazardous
waste within 90 days of the timeof
generation. Without the appro-
priate means of disposal, those
industries producing toxic wastes
would have to close, but the five-
state pact providesN.C. industries
with continuous access to treat-
ment facilities.
Under the terms of the agree-
ment, North Carolina will build
units for combusting hazardous
waste, treating contaminated soil
and treating and recycling haz-
ardous solvents. The state is also
responsible for locating a landfill
for the disposal of incinerator ash.
The Hazardous Waste Man-
agement Commission will actively
seek volunteer host communities
for the new facilities, but officials
said the sites for the long-term
disposal of toxic substances have
not been selected.

Safer sex practices could
reduce the spread of AIDS
and other STD's
hat do safer sex" practices mean?
It isa well known fact that many diseases such
as chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital warts, genital
herpes, .md All S are spread through sexual prac- j
tices i'r k hi ing 'safer sex" means being aware of
hese diseases, showing concern about yourself and
your sexual partner by knowingaboutyour partner's
ii'alt h anil sexual pat terns, and communicating with
each other to reduce your chances ol getting or
spreading a sexually transmitted disease.
Abstinence is the best means to protect against
Sexuall) Transmitted Diseases. Anyone and every-
one who chooses to be sexually active needs to be
aware of "safer sex" practices.
The best ways to plav safe are to get to know your partner's health
ind sexual patterns and to use condoms when having sex. Condoms
fcave long been known to prevent the spread of germs causing gonor
rhea, svphilis. chlamydia, and have recently been shown to aid in
Mocking the passage of the AIDS virus.
Men and women can carry sexually transmitted diseases such as
AIDS, svphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia without looking or feeling
II. Vaginal intercourse is just as likely to transfer these STD's as is ana
ntercourse It is well known that vaginal intercourse without the use ol
i condom can easily pass AIIS, svphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhea.
W.ien choosing condoms remember the following guidelines:
I Iseonly latex condoms. Scientists have found the "natural skin'
r "porous" condoms cannot stop some sexually transmitted diseases
I lse condoms that are lubricated. Lubricants lessen the possibil
ty of condom breakage Using a lubricant that contains the spermicidc
(ton-oxynol-9 is very important since non-oxynol-9 has been shown tc
till the AIIS virus in the test tube and gives you extra protection if the
:ondom breaks
Remember, safer sex includes both planning and responsibility. Be
responsible about chou es concerning drugs and alcohol since they car
impair your judgement and reduce your ability to make wise decisions
lesearch also shows that alcohol, marijuana and amphetamines dam
ige the immune system leaving you open to diseases that you mighl
otherwise lx- able to fight off. It makes sense to avoid doing things tha
mpair your ability to overcome infection.

were across the hall from one
another in the Brod) Building.
Now, they have consolidated in
the new center designated as the

Before the move, the doctor's

The new ll.iHH' square-foot

In WHfv Smith pleaded with a
former Cohimbia Law School class-
mate, Anthony Paduano, then 27,
tor help.
Paduano agreed. It wasguilt
that I had gone to Wall Street,
making 12 times more than he
was he told me.
oneof Paduano's firm's 285
lawyers had any expertise in death
penalty work. But soon, as the
American lawyer put it, "Thecase
tiHk on the fever pitch of a tender
offer The legal team worked 20-
hour days, transcribed "forgot-
ten" tapes and proved the judge
had never advised Johnson of his
right to appeal. They believed his
confession had been coerced.
With 48 hours left before the
scheduled Aug. 4, 1986, death,
Mississippi stayed the execution.
In March 1987, the New York
Court of Appeals unanimously
threw out the Rochester convic-
tions.
But it wasn't the end. Amaz-
ingly, Mississippi's high court
said the work of New York's top
court wasn't credible. Judges
comments took on overtones of
North vs. South. Nine of the 12
states that have recently used the
death penalty are below the
Mason-Dixon line. Just as re-
markably, the two states went to
the U.S. Supreme Court.
In June W88, the justices sided
with New York. They ordered a
new trial to determine whether
lohnson indeed deserves the
death penalty.
lllnois Johnson plans to be at
the new trial. He and Paduano
say his son tried to stop the gun-
man, not encourage him. Thecase
has attracted the attention of in-
ternational human-rights groups.
The elder and younger
lohnson talk by phone about four
times a month. That calculates to
abou 140 more conversations than
either had any reason to expect.
The sobering part: They're
lucky.
Bush-Noriega Connection
How far does it go?
By Nathaniel Mead
I ilitoriai Columnist
During the Reagans
Administration's second term.
Attorney General Edwin Meese
tried to stop the Miami based
contra-CIA drug connection in-
vestigation. It was a fascinating
state of affairs, although for some
reason the popular press failed to
give it much notice. But our pres-
ent situation, with General Man-
uel Noriega of Panama standing
trial in Miami, could prove even
more fascinating. Some believe he
may have the inside scoop on tor-
merQA director George Bush and
his connections to a large-scale
contra-CIA drug smuggling net-
work.
Noriega has been tagged as a
narcotics trafficker, a murderer (he
had killed more than HX) mem
hers of his own military in the
weeks since the failed coup of
October 3, 1989), and a strangler
of democracy. He is suspected of
being at the center of an illicit
enterprise that played on
Panama's strategic location as a
major transfer point for Colum-
bian refined cocaine headed for
the U.S. and a sate haven for the
leading Colombian drug lords. But
the drug-running dictator may
have more big secrets to tell than
simply concern his dealings with
the Colombians Not only did he
have specific connections with our
Drug Enforcement Administra-
tion and Cl A, but Noriega directly
supported the contra cause in
Nicaragua.
Before joining the Reagan
Administration, Bush was CIA
chief and Noriega was a paid CIA
informant The two men had lunch
togetherin Washington in late 147h
when each man directed his
country's intelligence service; their
next recorded meeting was in
Panama in December 1983. Bush
has never disclosed the substance
of his meetings with Noriega, but
Noriega himself has passed on
information regarding the second
meeting. According to Washing
ton Post and former Newsweek
writer Kevin Buckley, an author-
ity on U.SPanamanian policy,
Noriega said that Bush wanted
help for the contras so badly that
the U.S. government would turn a
blind eye to money-laundering
and setbacks in democracy in
Panama.
During the Reagan years,
Bush's close communications with
North, Poindexter, and other
members of the Contra-support
team should have alerted him to
Nonega'sdnigTunningactivities
Noriega had several meetings with
Lt. Col. North, whom Noriega
described as a boastful nait, eager
for the approval of a machismo
guerilla effort to eliminate the
Sandinistas. At one recorded
meeting, Noriega left with a list oi
targets inside Nicaragua which he
had offered to blow up for Col.
North and the U.S. government.
In H86, Noriega offered to use his
numerous assets in Nicaragua for
a campaign of sabotage against
theSandinistas anoffer to which
both Colonel North and Admiral
Poindexter consented. By this
time, Noriega's drug-trafficking
activities were already well-
known, which shows just how
obsessed the Reagan Administra-
tion had become by Nicaragua.
In December 1985, Bush met
with Edward Everett Bnggs, then
ambassador to Panama Bnggs
had already sent many cables to
the State Department recounting
allegations of Noriega's role in
drug trafficking. A memorandum
prepared for Bush prior to the
meeting described its purpose as
to "discuss U.S. relations with
Panama and narcotics matters
But early in 1988, after the memo-
randum was leaked, Bush charac-
teristically denied that any link
between Noriega and drug traf-
ficking had been mentioned.
Bnggs, after initially declining to
comment, backed up his story tor
the New York Times.
Why would Bush try to hide
his knowledge of Noriega? Law-
yers of the Washington, D.C-
based Christie Institute say that
former CIA director Bush not only
knew about Noriega's drug-traf-
ficking activities, but was himseli
instrumental in importing hun
dreds of tons of illegal drugs into
the United States Testimony bv
the Christie Institute's small armv
of lawyers, by convicted drug
smugglers,and by private citizens
on CBS's West 57th Street pro-
gram all provide a startling por-
trait of large-scale drug traffick-
ing under the auspicesof the eon
tras and the U.S. government.
According to the Christie In-
stitute, an interfaith legal founda-
tion, "contra narcotics smuggling
stretches from cocaine plantations
in Colombia, to dirt airstrips in
Costa Rica, to pseudo-seafood
companies in Miami, and finally,
to the drug-ridden streets ot our
society The Institute's extensive
investigation (TheChristic Institute
Special Report, 188) provided
support for allegations that the
contra leadership received direct
funding and other support from
major narcotics traffickers, that
U.S. government funds for the
contras went to known narcotics
dealers, including Noriega; and
that the CIA helped Miami-based
drug traffickers smuggle cocaine
into the U.S. in exchange for the
drug traffickers' help in arming
the contras.
In their 1988 report, the Chris-
tic Institute presents massive
documentation prepared bv more
than 50 volunteer trial lawyers.
The report includes sworn depo-
sitions from nearly 3(X) ev-CIA
operatives, Cuban-American vet-
erans of theanti-Castrocampaign,
Columbian drug smugglers, and
contra civilian leaders. The
Institute's most compelling alle-
gation was that a "secret team of
mercenaries, drug lords, and re-
tired military men has for 25 years
engineered extensivecovert activi-
ties not only in Nicaragua, but in
Cuba, Iran, the Middle East, and
Southeast Asia.
It's great stuff for novels, but
evidently not for court hearings
Even though some of the Institute's
findings were later confirmed bv
the Iran-Contragate investiga-
tions, their civil lawsuit against
secret team members was dis
missed in the summer of 1988 by
federal Judge James King Why
such an abrupt ending to such a
well-presented lawsuit1 The Bo
ton Clobe (June 22, 1988) says the
conservative King dismissed the
suit because it "was too hot to
handle in an election year The
Christie lawyers say that the King
ruling was made to protect George
Bush, because their evidence
raised many heavy-duty questions
about Bush's role in covert illegal
activities his knowledge ol
Noriega's drag-trafficking habits
and his awareness as former C IA
director of illegal arms sales and
political assassination programs
m the Middle Fast. Perhaps there s
an even simpler formula: while
people hire lawyers, politicians
hire judges
If the allegations are tnie, what
interest could our own govern-
ment could have in transporting
narcotics into this country? I can
see only two possible reasons
First, the influential ba kersol the
Reagan-Bush doctrine soek to roll
back communism through cover!
guerilla warfare, and powerful
drug traffickers, like Nori
provide a vehicle for this effort
Second, Bush and his CIA cronies
may have wanted to ensure the
ongoing passage ol big monev
throughU.S banks Forinstance
about SKKI billion worth of co
came is sold eaeh year in the U s
and much ot this money is used b .
our banks. That's enough monev
to keepthe banker friendsofBush
very happy.
Indirect connections may plav
a roleas well. As with the D E
ruetul experience in Mi-xio
I S government seems mail
interested in strong business ties
even it some of the business j
blatantly unethical. In this case
t he bu si ness seems to invol ve sh i p
merits of illegal narcotics by those
sworn to protect and defend our
Constitution
vVhyelscwouldagovcrnmi I
want to sanction the importatii n
ol drugs to the U S.?Tospread the
seeds ot social .n cultural di-
cord? It's not a pretty thought, but
that's not the point. The sad fact is
this: drugs weaken minds and
make this country more unstable
and less productive. Drugged out
teachers can't teach, and drugged
out Students can t learn effectively.
Drugged out missile operators,
pilots, and surgeons endanger
many lives. Drugged out politi-
cians can't tell a bellicose corr.mi
from a peace-loving hippie.
Mv own cynicism in the Nori-
ega affair is rooted in the dicta tor's
long-standing relationship with
the CIA and, bv some accounts,
the eight-member National Secu-
rity Council, of which Bush was a
member It's extremely hard to
believe that Noriega's role as
"narco-dictator" could have
eluded Bush during his high-level
participation with the CIA and
with the NSC later on. Meanwhile
the Christie Institute's case awaits
appeal, and Noriega has vet to be
heard Stay tuned!
Noriega is clearly a trophv for
Bush's "war on drugs a war
which seems to be helping him
erase the "u mp factor" and make
up for his abject failure as drug
czar tor the Reagan administra-
tion . Perhaps Bush is also trying to
convince the American people that
he has been against drugs all along
and that he could not possibly
acquiesce to drug smuggling. The
evidence suggests otherwise. In-
deed, perhaps the most pathetic
point raised bv the Noriega affair
is Bush's proclivity for deception
and hypocrisy. If you're must lie,
as some presidents seem impelled
to do, at least do it well. And if
venire going to fight drugs, do it
without paying lipservice to
known drug lords.

More troops arrive for AzerbaijanArmenian conflict
MOSCOW (AP)- More than
11 000 newly arrived iroops
struggled Wednesday to end
battles between bands ot Aor
baifanis and Armenians, who
reportedh were armed with eve
rything from submachine guns
and grenades to commandeered
artillery
rhe official death toll from the
i lashes m the southern republic ot
Azerbaijan stood at 56, mostly
Armenians, and new clashes were
reported Azerbaijani staged
protests in their republic's capital,
Baku, and elsewhere to demand
they be armed and allowed to
-K c-d then claim to the disputed
U rritoryol Nagorno-Karabakh, a
predominantly Ai mertianeix lave
m Azerbaijan, newspapers and
officials said Wednesday.
In bordering Armenia to the
vest people were still breaking
into polio stations and other arms
repositories in search of weapons,
said DmitriS le.nvo an Interior
Ministry spokesman in Moscow.
Seleznvov said that in the past
24 hours there had been 64 attacks
on Armenian homes in Baku,
where the bloodletting exploded
Saturday night with mob attacks
on Armenians. "It's a terrible
thing he said.
The Armenian news agency,
Armenpress.said some 1,5tV)rofu
gees were arriving dailv in the
Armenian capital of Yerevan. On
luesda, the official Tass news
agency said 2,000 people armed
with anti-aircraft guns and other
artillery were massing on hills
around Nagorno-Karabakh, the
flashpoint for the neighboring
groups' ethnic hatreds.
President Mikhail S. Gor-
bachev declared a state of emer-
gent in the strife-torn mountain
area Monday night, empowering
the government to deploy units of
the Soviet army, navy and RGB to
protect lives and guard vital in
stallations such as railroads More
than 6,000 additional internal se-
curity troops were sent Tuesday
to reinforce existing Interior Min-
istry detachments, Tass said.
To assist them, more than
5,000 Red Army soldiers, who
traditionally carry heavier weap-
onry, also were dispatched, Tass
said. Soviet media did not say how
many troops already were in the
region.
Tass said that in Armenia,
"demands are being made to arm
citizens and send them to Na-
gorno-Karabakh The govern-
ment newspaper lzvestia reported
lh attacks on weapons depots in
24 hours bv Armenians seeking
guns.
The troops have been in-
structed to get tougher with the
fighters, Seleznvov said, and sol-
diers opened fire Tuesday when
an armed group tried to take five
armored personnel earners near
the village of Tazikcnd.
"Since then, attempts to take
APCs have stopped, because be-
fore this they weren't used to
having weapons used against
them he said by telephone.
Combatants in the Nagorno-
Karabakh region had seized stores
of hand grenades, the Interior
Ministry said.
The flareup is the most vio-
lent between mainly Moslem
Azerbaijanisand mostly Christian
Armenians since their decades-old
feud over Nagorno-Karabakh
erupted in bloody clashes two
years ago. The enclave has been
ruled by Azerbaijan since 1923and
the current troubles were sparked
by its demand in February 1988 to
be annexed by Armenia.
Internal security troops al-
ready in the region have been
incapable of halting the most pro-
tracted ethnic conflict in
Gorbachev's nearly five-year ten-
ure as Kremlin leader.

WASHINGTON ? The first

ing national standards for accu-
racy has been unveiled.
The plan comes as 90,000 rail-
road employees Tuesday begin
random drug testing required by
federal regulations.
The timing is right said

ett Koop, a supporter of the bill.
"The public is discouraged be-
cause we're not winning this war.

The bill, sponsored by Sens.
Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and David
Boren, D-Okla
? Protects private businesses
wanting to test workers.
? Leaves i t to employers as to
what action to take if a worker
tests positive for drug use.
- Sets certification standards
for drug-testing labs ? some of
which have been accused of being
unfit.
"All clinical labs should be
certified so that tests are accurate
and reliable says Hatch. "Em-
ployees must know that tests will
be done accurately
Critics ? like the ACLU ?
say the bill encourages increased
random drug testing at the ex
pense o f workers' privacy and plan
to lobby against it. The Bureau of
Labor Statistics says only 3.2 per-
cent of all private businesses now
test for drugs ? most because
government contracts require it.

Global study rates school systems
U.S. education funding ranks low
By Dennis Kelley
Gannett News Service
The U.S. ranks 14th out of 16
industrialized nations in the per-
cent of national income spent on
education from preschool through
high secondary school, a new
study says.
The liberal Economic Policy
I nstiru te, a labor backed economic
think tank, says its survey under-
mines Bush administration claims
that the USA spends more per
pupil than other major countries
Administration officials immedi-
ately attacked the survey's meth-
odology.
Co-authors M. Edith Rasell
and Lawrence Mishel all took 1985
figures, the last year for which all
nations' figures were available,
and compared spending as a per-
cent of the gross domestic; not
national product to find:
?The USA ranks 14th for its
preschool through secondary
school funding, adjusted for sizes
of school populations. That puts it
ahead of only Ireland and Austra-
lia.
?The na tion is in a three-way
tie for second in education spend-
ing, if monies for collegesand other
post-secondary institutions are
included. But higher education
isn't the problem, Mishel says.
"The problem is K (kindergarten)
through 12
?If the U.S. were to increase
spending for primary and secon-
dary schools to the average of the
other 15 countries, it would need
to spend $20 billion more annu-
ally.
An acerbic Education Depart-
ment statement responds that the
report "has mixed apples, oranges
and moonbeams to produce an
indigestible concoction It says
the more accurate view of per-
pupi 1 expenditures shows the US A
second only to Switzerland in
education spending.
The department statement
says, for example, that education
funding was 3.9 percent of
Mississippi's budget in 1986, but
3.7 percent of Minnesota's. Yet
Minnesota spent $4,180 per pupil,
Mississippi just $2,350.
Mishel says per-pupil com-
parisons fail because poorer na-
tions simply can't afford as much.
Looking at spending as part of a
nation's wealth tells more about
its commitment to education.
"We don't say money will
solve the problem Mishel says.
"But we don't think you can solve
it without money

Lottery may be a big
issue in state elections
RALEIGH (AP) ? The likeli-
hood of a shortfall in tax collec-
tions, combined with reluctance
to raise taxes during an election
year, will make the proposed state
lottery a more powerful issue,
several lawmakers say.
"I think it will be pushed to
the hilt said House Minority
Leader Johnathan Rhyne, R-l.in-
coln. "Some would speculate that
some people are happy that we're
in this position so that the lottery
would have a better chance. I think
that's unfortunate
Rep. David Diamont, D-Surry,
House Appropriations Commit-
tee chairman, said the tight budget
year may force some legislators to
support proposals that otherwise
would be unattractive.
"As they begin to realize that
we have to come up with addi-
tional revenue or cut major pro-
grams significantly, they're going
to look for other major revenues
Diamont, who opposes a lottery,
told the Greensboro News & Rec-
ord in an interview published
Wednesday.
Last year, the state Senate
passed a bill to provide a state-
wide referendum to institute a
lottery. The lottery would be ex-
pected to raise about $200 million
for state needs.
The bill is now in the House of
Representatives and could be
taken up during the short session,
which starts May 21.
Earlier this month, Gov. Jim
Martin was forced to cut an aver-
age of 2.5 percent from the money
distributed to state agencies. It was
the fourthconsecutivequarter that
funds to state agencies had been
cut. With nearly all legislators
facing re-election in November,
support for a major tax wcwm
isn't likely.
"It might be easier for them to
vote for a lottery instead of a tax
increase Diamont said
Sen. Bill Martin, D-Guiltord,
one of the primary sponsors of
lottery legislation, said the budget
crunch will make the lottery a
major issue during the short ses-
sion.
"You'll find a lot of folks fight-
ing hard against it, saying if we
want to take care of budget prob-
lems, we should have the gu?s to
raise taxes Martin said. "Bu"
those are the same folks who
always fight increasingany taxes
He said a lottery won't solve
all the state's needs ? from edu-
cation to fighting drugs to pris-
ons.
"A lottery will be a significant
part of it Martin said. "We need
to look at other areas (for addi-
tional money), but a lottery is a
very significant part of trying to
get us out of this dilemma we're
in

Mobil delays drilling
RALEIGH (AP) ? Time is
running out on Mobil Oil Corps
plans to sink an exploratory natu-
ral gas well off Cape Hatteras this
year, state and company officials
say
Mobil had planned to begin
drilling as soon as May under a
"memorandum of understand-
ing" announced last summer be-
tween the company, the state and
the federal government. State and
federal officials since then have
recommended postponing the
project, and a Mobil official said
Tuesday that any significant de-
lays would prevent the company
from drilling this year.
Mobil has proposed search-
ing for natural gas near the edge of
the Continental Shelf, about 4(1
miles off the Outer Banks, under
nearly 3,000 feet of water. William
C. Whittemore, a lawyer with
Mobil'sexploration branch in New
Orleans, said the company still
has not agreed to a p ?tponement.
But any significant delays, he said,
would not leave enough time to
drill this year.
Under the memorandum of
understanding,or MOU, Mobil is
scheduled to file an exploration
plan by Jan. 31. rhe company also
must drill its exploratory well

Duke doctor committed to a
psychiatric clinic wins hearing
RALEIGH (AP) ? A former
Duke University professor has
won a new hearing on his charge
that university officials improp-
erly committed him to a psychiat-
ric hospital.
The state Court of Appeals
ruled Tuesday that Kwan-Sa You
deserved a hearing on charges that
several of hiscolleagues and Duke
committed libel, medical malprac-
tice and false imprisonment in
H82. Lower court orders dismiss-
ing his charges of breach of con-
tract, slander, malicious prosecu-
tion and abuse of process were
upheld by the appeals cotfct.
You began working as an
assistant professor of pediatrics in
Duke's Pediatric Metabolism
Laboratory in 1977. But in May
1982, he was told he would be
dismissed in Apnl 1983. After an
administrative appeal, his dis-
missal was delayed until October
1983.
But in September 1982, he was
accused of refusing to reveal the
recipes for some compounds he
was making at the laboratory You
denied the charge, and reported
to work late that month to find a
locksmith changing the locks on
his office door and all the labora-
tory doors. He was told to remove

East German strikes continue
WEST BERLIN (AP) Pres-
sure on East Germany's C ommu
nist leaders is mounting as more
and more workers walk off the job
in warning strikes. The country's
police chief si vs he fears the insta-
bility could deteriorate into civil
strife.
Inapparent acknowledgment
of the Communist government's
waning support. West Germany
on Tuesday backed off on its drive
to establish closer ties, saying it
would wait until after free elec-
tions promised for May b. East
German workers held more work
stoppages to protest a growing
listof grievances For the first time
in such warning strikes, they pro
tested government-mandated
pnce increases.
The growing tension was
addressed by national police chief
Dieter VVinderlich when he dis-
cussed Monday night's storming
of secret police headquarters dur-
ing a news conference:
"We have to do everything so
that the reform process can go
forward with the peaceful means
that have characterized it to date,
to keep it from resulting in occur-
rences resembling civil war
Since the fall ot hard-line
leader Fnch 1 Eonecker on CVt. 18,
East Germany's leaders routinely
have called tor calm and warned
that violence could hurt efforts to
establish true democracy in the
country Hut Winderlich, also a
deputy interior minister, was the
first top -ranking official to men-
tion civil war
Opposition groups have ac-
cused the government of Com-
munist Premier 1 lans Modrow of
exaggerating security threats in
an apparent attempt togain politi-
cal support and ushfy maintain-
ing a security police force. The
government savs it is dismantling
the secret police, but critics accuse
it ot toot dragging.
Nationwide, protests have
continued by hundreds of thou
sands of people who have de-
manded that theCommunistsgive
up their virtual control of the
government, media, bureaucracy
and economy. The unrest appar-
ently prompted Chancellor
Helmut Kohl of West C .ermany to
scrap plans for negotiating
stronger ties with the Modrow
government. Kohl said the talks
could wait until after free elec-
tions.
Kohl said the East German
situation has become "morediffi-

fective measures" wcrenetled to

Officials of the five countries

Tuesday night by setting out a 1r?-

Representatives of the countries
will meet again in New York in

a strong try at it said a senior
U.S. official, briefing reporters on
condition ot anonymity. "We're
not talking about a process that
would take several years, but it's
clear it will take several months

Bush, Congress will battle over China
By Marilyn Greene
Gannett News Service
Congress is putting on the
gloves for a brawl with President
Bush over U.S. policy toward
China
Among the first items of busi-
ness when Congress reconvenes
Jan. 23:
A push to override Bush's
veto of a bill extending U.S. visas
tor Chinese students.
Efforts to enact sanctions in
protest over China's continuing
repression, despite the lifting of
martial law in Beijing
Bush imposed sanctions after
the Chinese government's crack
down on students in lune, subse-
quently easing bans on sales of
satellites to China and loans and
guarantees.
Many in Congress believe it's
too early to lift sanctions because
few freedoms arc yet available in
China. Laws against strikes, pub-
lic gatheringsand demonstrations
remain on China's books despite
the end of nearly eight months of
martial law
Chinese authorities' continu-
ing repression of dissent "rein-
forces our argument says Rep
Nancy Pelosi,D-Calif, author of a
bill that would waive a U.S. re-
quirement that Chinese students
return home for two years when
their visas expire.
Passage of the law, vetoed by
Bush in November, will "send a
very clear message to the people
in Beijing that there has to be some
change in the way they treat their
people if there's to be continued
opening up Pelosi says.
Sen. Paul Simon, D-lll says
he "welcomes the end to martial
law, "but it is not satisfactory in
terms of really, substantively eas-
ing and improving relations. We
have to send a stronger signal to
China than we've been sending.
The White House on the whole
Chinese question has been,
franklv, very anemic in standing
up for freedom
He'll also back the move to
extend student's visas: "Whether
it's a veto override or new legisla-
tion, I'll be for it. They (the Chi-
nese) have to understand that
conduct like that in Tiananmen
Square isconduct the international
community ? and particularly the
United States - just doesn't toler-
ate
Gerntt Gong, director of Asian
studiesatWashington'sCenterfor
Strategic and International Stud-
ies, fears that the conflict could
end nearly two decades of unified
policy toward China. "My con-
cern is that it not become a parti-
san issue now
Democratic consultant Frank
Mankiewicz predicts the override
vote will be "overwhelming. It's
going to be tough for the presi-
dent. He's going to get rolled on
the override and then there will
be sanctions
Heart disease begins young, study says
Cruise to
Frceport,
Bv Tim Friend
Gannett News Service
SAN ANTONIO A major
new study offers the strongest
evidence vet that heart disease
prevention should begin in early
childhood particularly with
diet
The stud v. presented Monday
at the American Heart Associa-
tion science writers forum here,
firml) establishes high cholesterol
levels and smoking as nsk factors
tor heart disease in people as
voung as 25. The study is the
strongest yet to support the idea
that prevention of heart disease
should begin in early childhood
particularly with diet, says Pr
Myron Weisfeldt, president of the
American Heart Association.
Though restricting fat in kids'
diets at a very early age is contro-
versial, the AHA recommends a
low-fat, low-cholesterol diet be-
ginning at age 3. It also recom-
mends never smoking, getting
regular exercise and avoiding
excessive alcohol.
Among the study's findings,
presented Monday at an AHA
science writers torum:
Bv the late teens, fatty de-
posits are well established in the
arteries of a small but significant
percentage oi people deposits
large enough to begin narrowing
the arteries.
Bv age 23, people who
smoke and have high cholesterol
levels have twice as many artery
deposits as people who don't
smoke and have normal choles-
terol levels.
?By ages 30-34, about 25
percent of white males have fatty
deposits in their arteries.

Hie state and the Minerals

Although Mbil must ap-

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -
The evangelist who introduced
PTL founder Jim Bakker to church
secretary Jessica Hahn has pleaded
innocent to charges that he lied to
a grand jury about his reason for
setting up the meeting.
John Wesley Fletcher, 49, a
frequent guest on Bakker's TV
show, entered the plea to one
perjury count on Tuesday before
U.S. Magistrate Paul Taylor. The
judge set trial for the court's April
term.
It was the disclosure of hush
payments to Ms Hahn following
her 1980 sexual liaison with Bakker
that eventually led to the demise
of Bakker's multimillion-dollar
PTL empire.
Bakker is serving a 45-year
federal prison term in Minnesota
after being convicted last fall of
fraud and conspiracy. He was
found guilty of bilking followers
who sent him $158 million in ex-
change for free lodging guaran-
tees at his Heritage USA Christian
retreat in nearby Fort Mill, S.C
Another former Bakker asso-
ciate, the Rev. Sam Johnson, did
not appear in court for hisarraign-
ment on perjury charges. Court
officials said Johnson's attorney
had given notice that his client
would waive his nght to appear at
his arraignment
The attorney, Bill Osteen, told
the U.S. District Court clerk's of-
fice that he planned to enter
Johnson's plea today. Last month,
Johnson said he intended to plead
innocent.
Both men are accused of lying
to the special grand jury that in-
vestigated PTL's operations un-
der Bakker's leadership. That
panel met for 17 months before
indicting Bakker and three of his
former associates Fletcher had
met Ms. Hahn when he cond ucted
revival services on New York's
Long Island, where she was a
church secretary.
Fletcher told the grand jury
working part-time with hisbrothrr
in the roofing business in Dur
ham. He declined to comment on
the charges following the hearing
Johnson, former pastor of
HeritageVillageChurchatPTl .is
accused of lying to the grand jun.
about the source of a $10,000 loan
that he made to one of Bakker s
aides. The money eventually was
given to Ms Hahn to keep her
quiet about the 1980 encounter
with Bakker, the indictment said
Johnson gave the money to
former PTL executive vice presi-
dent Richard Dortch in Novem-
ber 1984 Ms Hahn later received
$265,000 in PTL money in ex-
change for her silence, the indict
ment said. Dortch, who was
charged with Bakker, pleaded
guilty to fraud and conspiracy

Two other former Bakker as
sociates ? brothers James and
David Taggart ? were convicted
of evading tax payments on more
than $1.1 million in PTL funds

ditures. If convicted, Johnson and
Fletcher each face up to five years
in prison and fines of up to
$250,000.
N.C. legislature looks at solutions for overcrowded prisons
Dunne the past two yea
RALEIGH (AP) A legisla
live panel searched for a way out
ol North Carolina's prison crowd-
ing problem and heard from one
lawmaker who suggested the state
might want to abandon its prison
population cap
1 know it wasn't the thinking
iMi anybody's part when we im-
posed the cap that we'd bo letting
them out at the rate we're doing
Rep R Samuel Hunt III. P-Ala-
mance, told the oinl Legislative
Governmental Operations Com
mission Tuesday
The two-year-old limit on the
state's prison population was put
in place by the N.C. General As-
sembly in an effort to avoid a fed-
eral takeover of the crowded sys-
tem But a lawyer for the N.C.
Attorney General's office sug-
gested that such a ma neuvermight
lead to heavy fines from federal
courts, since the state would be
unable to meet space requirements
for inmates
To settle a federal suit, the
state has spent $130 million build-
ing new prisons in recent years to
give inmates more space. But the
construction will not increase the
number of beds, while the state's
growing population and intensi-
fied law enforcement result in
more people sent to prison each
year
Gov im Martin has proposed
a $490.5 million bond issue to add
9,500 beds, increasing capacity
from 18,000 inmates to 27,500.
Sen. Robert G. Shaw, R-
Guilford, suggested "cheap,
wooden barracks" similar to pris-
oner-of-war camps as an interim
solution. Hunt and Sen. J. Richard
Conder liked the idea.
"I'd much rather see some of
them slip out the back door
Conder said, "than to turn a mur-
derer loose out the front door
Because of the 18,000-inmate
limit, the state Paroles Commis-
sion must find about 2,000inmates
a month for release, said Louis R.
Colombo, chairman of the panel.
Thafs about twice the release rate
of five years ago, he said.
Colombo likened the prob-
lem to a dam holding polluted
water
"More and more polluted
streamsarebeingadded he said
"Yet there is one faucet at the dam,
and we are required to use it to
keep the dam's water level even,
and we must assure that the water
from the faucet is pure
Asof Monday, the pnsonshad
17,899 inmates, or 101 short of the
cap, Columbo said.
During the past two years,
inmates released on parole have
included 81 convicted of first- or
second-degree murder and sen-
tenced to 50 years or more, said
Sam Bovd, a paroles commission
staff member. Most typicallv had
served about 15 years of their
sentence, he said
Because inmates receivecTcdit
in the form of reduced time for
good behavior and such activities
as work, a felon sentenced to 10
years will typically face an actual
term of one to four years, he said

to kill his family. But the appeals
court said the evidence presented
tended to indicate those state-
ments were true, removing them
from slander consideration.
In another case, the appeals
court ruled that a dozen Harnett
County residents could not be
forced to pay connection fees or
monthly bills for sewer service
because the county had failed to
follow state laws regarding the
collections.
The landowners had claimed
they were not properly notified of
assessments for the Buies Creek-
Coats Water and Sewer District.
The county had contended the
connection fees were not assess-
ments, as defined by state law,
and the notifications were not
needed.
But the appeals court said the
county could not avoid notifica-
tion of the assessments by calling
them something else. It also or-
dered the county to pay attorney
fees for the landowners.
The appeals court also ruled
against the Village of Pinehurst,
which had sought to block the sale
of the town's water and sewer
system to a private company.
The village, once a privately
owned resort town, cited a 1973
agreement with the town's devel-
opers that gave the village the first
N.C. State
lays off
teachers
RALEIGH (AP) ? North
Carolina State University is lay-
ing off dozens of instructors and
canceling numerous classes in the
wake of a budget crunch caused
by a drop in state revenues.
The cuts are the result of an
order by state budget officers to
reduce the campus' 1989-90
budget by 5 percent, or $9nillion
est day of my professiona I career,
said William B. Toole, dean of the
College of Humanities and Social
Sciences. His college, the second
largest at the university, has lost
$1 million of its$20million budget.
The layoffs apparently are
confined to non-tenured instruc-
tors and visiting professors who
typically work on year-to-year
contracts. At least six visiting
professors in the department of
sociology, anthropology and so-
cial work were told Wednesday
afternoon that their teaching loads
would be cut in half and their
teachingdutiesdistributed among
full-time professors.
Among them was Charles S.
Warren, a doctoral candidate at
UNC-Chapel Hill who typically
teaches two courses each semes-
ter.
"This is just going to kill edu-
cation Warren said. "I've already
taught three lectures. The kids
have already bought their books
and two weeks of instruction is
going to be shot in the head. It's
happening all over campus.
"No wonder our SAT scores
are the lowest in the nation if this
is the way we treat education in
the elite institutions. This is cut-
ting back all the way to the bone
Dale M. Hoover, head of the
department of economics and
business, said faculty members
there had been forced to drop five
or six class sections.
"We're asking people who
have written contracts to allow us
to disemploy them Hoover said
"We're doing our best not to
hurt the quality of education, but
there's no way we can make the
changes without hurting the qual-
ity. They have not literally asked
us to drop any course and turn
students away, but that's hard to
do. To meet the guidel ines exactly,
you have almost no flexibility
N.C. State's budget crunch is
complicated by the fact that
roughly 320 fewer out-of-state
students enrolled this year than
had been expected. Because those
students pay about $4,600 tuition,
as compared with about $600 for
in-state students, their absence
translates to an additional loss of
$13 million.
option to buy utility systems
owned by developers. But in a
split decision, the court said the
agreement for a 90-day first op-
tion contained no time limit and
could not be held "in perpetuity
Judges Edward Greene and
Charles Becton ruled against the
town, but Judge Eugene Phillips
dissented, saying the option in the
agreement is valid.
In other decisions, the court:
? Upheld a jury decision
which awarded Screaming Eagle
Air Ltd. $109,000 in damages from
the Airport Commission of For-
syth County. The company had
sued the airport commission in
1987 after one of their planes hit a
dog on the runway and the nose
gear collapsed. The appeals court
ruled that the jury correctly could
determine negligence because the
five-mile perimeter of the airport
is only partly enclosed with a
chain-link fence, and because air-
port employees killed an average
of 80 to 100 dogs each year.
? Ruled that the State Board
of Registration for Professional
Engineersand Land Surveyors can
suspend an engineer's license or
fine him $500, but not both. The
board had suspended William E.
Bruce for two years and fined him
$500 after he approved designs
for two schools in Caldwell and
Mecklenburg counties that were
inadequate. The board said Bruce's
approval showed professional
incompetence and negligence. The
court upheld the board's ruling,
but said the board could only
impose one penalty, not two.
? Upheld a lower court rul-
ing allowing the state Department
of Transportation to recover pay-
ments to Thompson-Arthur Pav-
ing Co. for work on two roads in
Guilford County. As part of the
two contracts, the department had
paid the company for "unclassi-
fied excavation" based on DOT
estimates. But when the projects
were completed, DOT re-surveyed
and found less of the excavation
had been done than the estimates.
The company argued that work-
ing with smaller amounts of earth
increased its cost per cubic yard.

RUSH TIPS: DOS AND DON'TS
1. BE CONFIDENT OF YOURSELF. A fraternity will be
affected by your body and verbal language. A firm handshake
U vital to a good first impression.
2. LOOK YOUR BEST AT ALL TIMES. You probably will
not get a bid from a fraternity because of the way you dress and
look, but your appearance can KEEP you from getting a bid.
3. NEVER BE ARROGANT! Try not to act as if you were
already a pledge or brother of the house. If a house plans on
inviting you back, they will.
4. NEVER HESITATE TO INTRODUCE YOURSELF.
When you are introduced to someone, repeat his or her name.
However, with all the people that you will meet, do not feel
like you have to remember everyone's name.
5. ASK QUESTIONS if there is anything that you want to
know about the fraternity: finances, sports, grades, activities,
etc.
6. Just because a lot of guys from your HOMETOWN are in a
certain fraternity, or just because you think one or more of
your FRIENDS are going to pledge a certain fraternity, this
DOES NOT necessarily mean that the fraternity is right for
YOU! Pledge the fraternity that can do the most for you and
where you feel most comfortable.
7 Attend the parties of AS MANY different fraternities as
you can, especially if you are not sure about which f.J
you are interested in. In other words, SHOP AROUND. Be-
sides, it's a great chance to get to know more about the Creek

Shoe outlet offers
savings, quality
Store passes savings on to buyers
By John Tucker
Assistant Features Fditor
If you're on that college
budget and get a kick out of find-
ing a good bargain while shop-
ping, then the incredible deals at
"The Shoe Outlet" will give you a
senous shopping rush.
The small obscure shop, on
the corner of West 9th and South
Washington Streets, contains a
variety of high-quality outlet, ir-
regular, factory damaged and
second hand shoes, along with a
few other knick-knacks such as
ties and socks.
ECU student Brian Felton
recently discovered the shop
through a friend by word of
mouth. "I bought two pairs there
Felton said. "1 got a new pair of
Bucks that are $50 in most stores
for $29 and a pair of gortex and
leather Timberline boots that are
usually over $12(1 tor only $25
dollars
According to Leslie Mills,
owner and operator of the store,
the main reason for the low prices
is that the shoes, although in ade-
quate shape, can not be sold on the
shelvesof most department stores
Mills said that he buys his
merchandise straight from facto-
ries and outlets and that about
50 of his shoes are second hand.
"Manv of these shoes were bought
by someone in a department store
and worn only once before thev
were returned because they didn't
tit right, were missing a shoelace
or something like that. The de-
partment store returns them to the
manufacturer and then 1 buv
them Mills also buys many of his
shoes from factories that manu-
facture too many shoes for a par-
ticular order.

tricia, most of the customers who
come in the store return and buy
more shoes. "Our prices are really-
good and most of the shoes will
last as long or longer than good
store bought shoes
Mills opened the shop in
August of 1981, when he gave up
the money he had saved for a
brand new van and bought a large
quantity of outlet shoes. Since then
the shoe shop has onlv been a
sideline family business, as Mills'
wife, mother, and father have all
worked long, hours selling shoes.
Mills compares buyingaused
shoe to buying a new car 'When
vou buv a car, you're better off
buying a used Mercedes than
buying aadillacandtl sthesame

ing a used quality shoe than buy-

still slow. "Recently, I'vehad more

ECU artists display work for Beaufort Arts Council
By Jeff Parker
Stjff Writer
Thispast Sunday began the 1990
gallery exhibits for the Beaufort
Countv Arts Council in Washing-
ton, .C. The show featured the
work of four artists, two of whom
arc from Hast Carolina's own
Sch(Hil of Art.
Prior to thf reception, visiting
artists Phil and Beth Stovall per-
formed a short cotnk opera en-
titled "The Telephone The skit
dealt with the presence of the tele-
phone in the modem home as an
omnipresent dictator. Though the
script was no Gilbert and Sullivan
treatment, and more than a bit
predictable, the performers did a
good job with it, making it the
highlight of the reception.
Following the performance,
modest refreshments were served
and viewing oi tin1 works began.
Framed pieces adorned the walls
around the open areas ot the gal-
lery, while scattered throughout
the room and under glass case's
were the sculptures.
The sculpture was done by
Durham artist Chester Williams,
and featured a variety of figures
leaning toward the abstract. The
larger pieces were bronze combi-
nations of space-splitting angu-
larsand decorative elements, per-
haps the most visually appealing
oi which was ' Ussi Art: Mask
I Inder glass were smaller bronzed
heads thai followed an oriental
motif, with "3rd lapanese Figu
nne" standing out quite well.
The oil paintings of Wilmington
artist Harry bee Davis brought a
welcome touch of color to the
exhibit, and focused largely on
the lifestylesof black people across
the world as their subject matter.
"Southern Legacy" is an impres-
sive character study depicting an
older woman in a routine day of
work in the rural South. Vivid
greens accent "After the Drought
and give a good example of the
heightened hues Davis employs
inhisart. Though there is a certain
lack of depth perception in the
works, appealing visuals and
pleasing colors more than com-
pensate.
The two other artists featured
were ECl graduates, and Kith
displayed lithographs as well as
photography. Ihe prints of Ste-
ven Reid focused for the most part

Bonehead likes pornography
By Chippy Bonehead
Staff Pornographer
I love pornography.
In fact, I love it so much, I'm
willing to utilize my precious col-
umn space to defend it, thereby
risking total public humiliation,
scoffing, mortification,abasement
and a bunch of other neat syno-
nyms I looked up.
Because the minute you start
saying, "Hey, I think it's okay to
sell magazines that contain noth-
ing but pictures of people with no
clothes on in ludicrous positions
that your wife would never get
into, pictured against breathtak-
ing vistas ymir wife would never

people start UnAingat your palms
for excess hair.
Religious fanatics, feminists,
your mother, moral upstanding
pillars of the community, anal
retentive school administrators
and girls all think porno is sick.
They think it's nothing but stimu-
lation for all the latent voyeuristic
and exhibitionistic kinks in your
personality, and if you look at too
much of it, you'll go completely
round the bend and become a
necrophiliac homosexual dog
molester.
And you can't even say, "I just
like the photography arhdesads
in the back" because everybody
knows you onlv look at those after
you've spent yourself and you're
too tired to get up and get a towel.
You can't look at pornography for
any reason withou t starting to hear
an urgent cry from Mr. Palmer

Collector breeds Zonkeys and Zonies
G ASTON1A (AP) Nature doesn't usually throw togethera zebra,
ponies and donkeys, but on the Gaston County' farm of Don Hoover
they run together on about 50 acres. "1 believe in letting nature take its
course said loover, whose exotic animal farm includes a Himalayan
bear,bison,emu and four-homed ramsand includes zonies and zonkeys.
Hoover, owner of Hoover Machine Inc has been collecting exotic
animals for several years to entertain himself and his grandchildren
as well as passing motorists
A zebra, which Hoover bought for about $2,WO, was theonly male
ioining the group ot female ponies and donkevs. About three years,
three mixed -breed offspring showed up. The zonkey. as Hooverdubbed
it, is a tan female with ebra-stnped white legs. The male zony is brown
with a white splotch on itsside like its pinto mom ? and black stripes
inherited from dad. The temale zony is light reddish-brownwith darker
brown stnpes.
Hoover said he was pleased to see the unusual offspring, but he
didn't do anything to encourage it. 1 just bought that zebra and threw
it in there he said.
Goliath frogs to jump in Calaveras

Satellite sensors detect puzzling data
Puzzling geological quirks have turned up in tnetirst fiveyearsol
results from 28 satellite ranging sensors that were placed around the
world. Most of the results, which allow the measurement in millimeters
per year of the drift of the plates on the Earth's surface, agree well with
predictions.
Ru t a sensor in SimosatoKi pan. is moving north west bv 4 centimeters
a year, which can't be explained, and sensors in Hawaii and French
Polynesia are spreading by 1 - centimeters a year, though they'reon the
same plate.
Weight gained over holidays
A telephone poll of SI4 adults shows that 43 percent said they
gained weight during the holidays. The USA TODAY survey discovered
that those who gained put on six pounds, which took an average of five
weeks to lose. Many chose the tirst fad diet that came their way.
Toothbrush changes advised
Dental experts say toothbrushes should be changed every two to
three weeks, and more often in cases oi cold or flu, says a report in the
Academy of General Dentistry newsletter. Reason: Keeping the same
toothbrushes causes continual reinfection by various viruses.
Dieters lose weight through fad diets
Losing weight, then regaining it, may have negative consequences
on metabolism and health, warns obesity researcher Kelly Brownell
from the University of Pennsylvania. Brownell says it's not a good idea
to begin any diet if the weight will be regained. Honest assessments ot
motivation and commitment are essential before starting a weightless
program.
Minority student enrollment drops
College enrollments of low- and middle-income blacks and
Hispanics have declined since the mid-1970s, according to a survey by
the American Council on Education. Since 1976, college enrollments of
middle-income blacks have dropped from 33 percent to 36 percent, and
enrollments of Hispanics have dropped from 33 percent to 46 percent.
Toaster of the future fueled by butane
Blackand Decker recently teamed up with the Industrial Designers
Society of America to seek the best design tor the toaster oi the future.
The winners: a see-through toaster that can tilt 90 degrees and double
as a mini-toaster oven; an electric napkin that envelops the bread; and
a traveling toaster, a compact unit fired bv a rcfillable built-in butane
fuel tank.
Survey says children's opinions matter
Children's opinions carry weight when it comes to family decisions.
USA Weekend magazine commissioned the Roper Organization to
survey 499 parents with kids ages 7 to 17, and 74 percent said their kids
help decide family leisure activities and 31 percent influence meals.
Drivers want more powerful engines
If drivers could afford only one option on a new car, they would
order a more powerful engine, according a random survey of 320
visitors to the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show. Half of the respondents
said thev wouldn't buy a navigation system to select the best route, a
communication svstem to show traffic tie-ups or an automatic pilot to
steer on the freeway.
Chinese art depicts contemporary realism
Art arriving in the United States and Canada from the People's
Republic of China has a new look. The Chinese are exporting
contemporary realism - bold, western-style oil paintings depicting
contemporary subjects. Galleries in all 50 states and most Canadian
provinces are exhibiting the paintings.
Enzyme could fight AIDS
More than a vcar ago, scientists working to find a better drug to fight
AIDS found a potential weapon: a crucial enzyme in the virus that does
not change, as proteins on the coat of the virus itself do. Writing in this
week's issue of the British journal Nature, scientists report that the
enzyme, protease, can be jammed by the compounds. A dozen
compounds are under study, and within the next year, one is likely to
be chosen for the first tests on humans.

drix Theater, beginning at 8 p m.
The concerl is the second event in
the 1989-90 Chamber Musk- Se
lies.
A new ensemble, formed in
August of 1986, the group is dedi-
cated to the exploration study and
performance o( chamber music
from Haydn and Mozart to
Beethoven and Mendelssohn,
from Brahms and Dvorak to De-
bussy and Ravel, as well as con-
temporary composers.
The CCM core artists are four
internationally-recognized cham-
ber performers: clarinetist Larry
Combs, pianist Deborah Sobol,
violinist loseph Genualdi and
hormst C ,ail Williams. Combs and
Sobol are co-artistic directors.
1 he musicians rehearse and
study selected works several times
weekly throughout the perform-
ing season, and in programming
concerts, the artists select only
those pieces from the working
repertoire which thev feel are
ready for performance. After each
concert, the artists continue to
develop the selected compositions
through frequent reworkings.
Occasionally, the CCM col-
laborates with other artists to plan
programs requiring larger en-
sembles
Since their founding, theCCM
has been named resident chamber
music ensemble of WFMT Radio,
Chicago's tine arts radio station,
and regularly performs live con-
certs for broadcast by the station.
In addition, the ensemble has
presented a series of free monthly
noontime forum concerts in Evatt-
ston, 111 and has conducted resi-
dencies at Kent State University
and the University of Califomia-
Long Beach.
The ensemble's Chicago area
performances have earned praise
from critics of the Chicago Tribune
and Sun-Times. In an interview
with Chicago's Metro magazine,
Deborah Sobol stated that the
CCM functions as "a society of
musicians
"So we have the potential to
expand or contract whenever
necessarv, depending on what
repertoire we want to study and
perform she said.
"If we'd like to prepare a piece
for nine players, we'll just invite
some of our colleagues from
around the world to perform with
us. In this way we have the poten-
tial to perform the whole spec-
trum oi chamber literature"

Drinking is very much a part ot
college life and students organize
their weekends around the con-
sumption ol alcohol.
Fraternities on campus are
often regarded as party houses,
but this is an unfair stereotype. Pi

low to avoid problems The
pamphlet "What You Should
Know About Alcohol On Cam-

Substance Abuse Prevention and
Education) lists these tips: Eat a
meal before or along with drink-
ing, sip drinks, space drinks over
time, and limit the number of
drinks to a sensible amount
BACCHUS advisor David
Susina holds a ludidal Alcohol
Workshop tor students who have
an alcohol problem. If you're not

help you to find out. Susina is
available in the Offkeof Substance

Susina said students come to

who work to promote alcohol
awareness. All students who are
interested are invited to join them.
BACCHUS encouragesevery-
one to evaluate his or her drinking

sible decisions regarding alcohol.
Prinking alcohol can be tun on

Disease brings family together
CHARLOTTE (AP)- For the
second time in seven months,
mourners will file into Myers Park
United Methodist Church on
Sunday to honor the life of a Tay-
lor family member.
Of at least 92 AIDS patients
who have died in Mecklenburg
County, the disease took two
father and then son from the
Taylor household
Samuel Clay Taylor, 40, a lover
of plants, politics and good jokes,
died of complications from AIDS
at 4 a.m. Wednesday. His mother
and sisters were at his side, his
once burly arms emaciated. as the
fluid filling his lungs choked out
his last breaths. He had already
conquered leukemia, but at a cost
blood transfusions he received
during treatment in 184 proba-
bly gave him AIDS.
As they look back, family
members are plain-spoken about
their four-vear war with AIDS.
"If the AIDS epidemic is going
to happen ? and our family thinks
it is we should as a community
get ready (or battle Tonda Tay-
lor, a sister of Sam Taylor, told The
Charlotte Observer. I don't think it
is rhedenial is something weean't

"We have been confronted
added her brother Drew, "and
have not been able lo ignore it
"What we learned as a family
is that the label ot the disease is
like a scarlet letter said Tonda
Taylor.
but most family friends
seemed to take if in stride, she
said, and remained loval.
Sam Taylor talked to student
and church groups about safe sex.
And he talked about "anempathy
and understanding and an accep-
tance of people who have AIDS,
no matter how it's transmitted
his sister said
"Sam was one of the first
people in the community who
spoke publicly about his disease

In June 1984, doctors diag-
nosed leukemia. Later that year,
he underwent explora torv surgery
at Presbyterian Hospital, during
which he had blood transfusions.
The American Red Cross began
testing blood for the HIV virus in
March 1985. Doctorslater believed
the transfusions were contami-
nated.
Doctors at the time said the
leukemia would kill him in three
months.
Instead, after radical treat
ment at the National Institutes of
Health in Bethesda, Md he beat
the disease.
Months later, he developed a
cough. He was diagnosed with
AIDS in January 1986, and started
the experimental AZ7 treatment
that summer.
In public, Tavlor was full of
humor and acceptance, but at
home he was sometimes angry-
He made clear he wanted no ex-
traordinary measures to prolong
his life but never conceded death.

The ECU men's and women's
swim teams were no match for the
reigning Atlantic Coast Confer-
ence champions Monday night
But, the final home meet against
the North Carolina Tarheels was
not, according to Coach Rick Kobe,
a total loss despite the final out-
come.
"We swam a good meet
Kobe said. "We are real pleased
with our times. The ACC is one of
the most competitive conferences
in the country
With the loss against the Tar-
heels, the men's record stands at
8-3 on the season while remaining
4-2 in the conference. The women's
overall record dropped to 7-4
while their conference record
remains at 3-2.
Not only was this the last
home meet for the Pirates at
Mingcs Aquatic Center for the
1W-90 season, but this was also
the last home meet for ECU'S
seniorswimmers. The Pirates have
two seniors on the men's squad.
Andy leter and Raymond Ken-
nedy, and two on the women's
squad, Robin Wicks and Leslie
Wilson.
They've put four years in
what was the hardest training
program they could do Kobe
said "They are what student lead-
ers are all about
All four seniors served as co-
captains and, as Kobe explained,
all have, at one time or another,
served on the Dean's List.
In fact, the four seniors were
regarded by Kobeastheoutstand-
ing swimmers in the meet for their
efforts. For the men, Jeter swam
for a third place finish in the 1000-
vard freestyle with his time of
955 40. UNC's David Monasteno
and James Hamrick took the first
and second place spots with their
times of 932.57 and 9:48.04 re
speclively.
Kennedv ended the dav with
both a second and a third place
finish. He earned second in the
100-yard brcaststroke when he
swam a 59.55, right behind UNC's
John Fischetti's time of 59.32.
Kennedy's third place finish came
in the 200-yard freestyle as he
touched the wall in 1:46.83. Steve
Martcl of the Tarheels took first in
that event with 1:47 19 and ECU's
Steve Benkusky swam for second
in 1:46.76.
For the women seniors
Wilson swam away with a third
place in the 400-yard individual
medlev with her time of 4:47.05.
UNC scored in the top two posi
tions. Wicks, who also swam in
this event, ended in fifth place
with her time ot 4:4 84
Despite the overall losing ef
fort ot both squads, the men by gs
145 and the women by 73-167, the
Pirates were not without individ-
ual highlights For the men. junior
Ted Christensen swam an out-
standing time in the 400-yard
individual medlev as he easih
took first place with a time of

1990 basketball kickoff tourna-
ment will be held this weekend in
Memorial Gymnasium. Twenty
four men's teams will compete for
top honors in this year's battle for
regular-season number one posi-
tioning. Ima Reck sees the pre-
preseason picks as follows:
1.) Winter Heat - Greenville
Utilities beware! These guys will
light up the court without using a
single kilowatt. Look for Terrence
Bryant and crew to take the other
teams to their peak of energy be-
fore slamming them with high
scores.
2.) Air Assault - Bojack Daven-
port leads the attack. These guys
can lead a defensive strike their
opponents will never be able to
combat. And with Colonel Bojack
at the helm.no one will get out
alive!
3.) Boyz in the Hood - Leon
Edwards will lead his squad out
of the hood and onto the wood for
a slammin' jammin' basketball
session. They plan to rock their
opponents chassis and kill their
motors before taking the number
three spot.
4.) Library St. Jazz - Kenny
Maltony will lead this basketball
study session. There will be quiet
on the opponents boards as Li-
brary St. Jazz teaches a lesson in
basketball prowess.
5.) 1-C-Ya - James Godwin's
team will C-Ya-Luz! They round
out the top five but can surelv play
the roundball game!
1990 Dark Horse Pick -
Enema Bandits - Kevin
McGowan and his team are a pain

By that standard, the early

in the majors, and Weaver, who
never played above Double-A.
Personally, 1 think Durocher
already should be in Cooperstown
for his managing alone (2.010 wins,
540 percentage). But Leo The Lip's
feistiness undoubtedly has cost
him votes.

Newly formed group
tries to change attitudes
Tin- Amai GAMATCD Press
Evening out racial imbalances in
the work force is a matter of great im-
portance these days, so it's not sur-
prising to see another organization
trying its hand at solving the prob-
lem. The new group, North Carolini-
ans for White Janitors, seeks to help
whites break into blue-collar, low-
prestige positions.
"Our research indicates that those
who hire people for blue-collar jobs
are prejudiced said Sue Premacist,
NCWJ's president. "They just don't
believe that whites ? who, due to
better opportunity, suffer from hav-
ing more education and better train-
ing than most non-whites ? are ca-
pable of doing )obs that have been
traditionally held by minorities.
Minorities take all thclow-prcs-
tige. menial )obs and make it impos-
sible for highly trained, well-quali-
fied Whites to enter the work force at
(hot level, Premacist continues. "Con-
M nit nth whites are forced to tike

employers' attitvides on a wide range
of jobs, to show them that whites can
do them, 100. We want to see more
whitesdnvinggarbage trucks, becom-
ing transient laborers, washing laun-
dry in hotels, etc
NCWJ's campaign for the '90S is
called "Give a WASP a break and
will be a large-scale effort to convince
employers that whitesarequalified to
compete with minorities. Most of the
campaign's methods are predictable
and well-tried - putting up educa-
tional posters wherever people are
most likely to ignore them, taping
public-service messages to run when
nobodv's watching the television
anywav, and generally blowing lots
of federal money on treating the
symptoms without treating the dis-
ease ? but there is one fresh twist
"Two words: mental condition-

'Spaz' jailed!
By Chippy Bonehead
ECU Today
justice was served today, as
Judge Obstructa Rights found noto-
rious misdemeanonst Timmy
"Spaz" Cronkite guilty, guilty, guilty
of all the charges against him and
some that were levelled at Manuel
Noriega besides.
The sentence was served on
whole wheat with a mild cheese
sauce. Calling Cronkite "the most
evil criminal to walk the face of the
planet since the inventor of polyes-
ter Rights sentenced Cronkite to
twenty vears' imprisonment in a
small broomcloset on the third floor
of the General Classroom Building.
He will be forced to watch New
Kids on the Block videos for the first
ten vears and, if he is not paroled, he
will be required to recite Dadaist
poetry until the sentence is com-
pleted.
"The trial was a masterpiece of
the American legal system Sena-
tor Jesse Helms aid admiringl)
"I've been following the l ronktte

ney tried without success to prove

invasion of the Mighty Tar Apart
ment complex forced Cronkite to
get involved, especially since the
university paid Cronkite's salary.
The prosecution, stunning in its
legal efficiency, proved beyond a
shadow of a doubt that Cronkite
had never been on the ECU payroll,
that the pav check stubs the defense
presented as evidence were obvi-
ously forgeries, and if they weren't,
they certainly weren't signed by
Chancellor Dick Hurhn, and besides,
who reall y needs these radical leftist
commie-pinko journalists running
around free anyway7
Cronkite's defense attorney
thought they had a key witness in
Dr. Alfred DeButler, Vice Chancel-
lor in Charge of Stripping Students
of Every Possible Legal Right
However. DeButler's testimony
worked against them, as he told the
court, "Have 1 ever seen that person
before on campus, or at a university-
sponsored off-campus event, or has
he ever come to Student Fund Ac-
counting to pick up a paycheck? I'm
thinking no way. Uhn-uhn. Neg.
Never. Nada. Non. N-O
The prosecution only fumbled
once, but they quickly recovered. A
slight contradiction in testimony oc-
curred when arresting officer Ronald
Wurst told the court Cronkite had
been arrested, while official police
transcripts and videotapes of the jail
on the night in question showed no
sign of Cronkite.
Judge Rights quickly stepped
and saved the prosecution with the
timely comment, "Obviously, Mr.
Cronkite went back and Whited-Out

and, as an undead, is not detectable
bv video cameras The jury ap-
plauded the judge's quick thinking
and promptly went back to sleep.
The defense vainlv tried to prove
Cronkite s association with ECU by
showing the court his many photo-
graphs which have appeared insuch
fine university-sponv red 'but not

immediately threw thisevidenceout
of court, declaring it inadmissabie
?nce such evidence could possibly
hurt the prosecution s otherwise air-
tight rase. This might torceus to free
this dangerous criminal and allow
him to roam the streets again, trying

dia
Cronkite's defense was sched-
uled to present a closing statement,
but it was already 11:30, and Judge
Rights had a luncheon engagement,
so she wrapped things up early. I
Cronkite was taken away to the
General Classroom Building to begin
serving his sentence.
Dr. DeButler drove off in his
new W) Porsche, a car that most
vice chancellors at state-supported
schools find hard to purchase on
their normal, unsupplemented sala-
ries. Judge Rights had an excellent
lunch, although the shrimp scampi
disagreed with her somewhat. The
media editors went back to their
frustrating existences, forced to
report only alumni-pleasing things

ECU students
"Initially, there was some rests
tame to making Independence 1 ay a
legal holiday SGA president Chip
Cookie said "Afterall, it really has no
religious significance whatsoever, and
therefore the state is hard pressed to
give employees and students unnec

"Bosses' Day waseasy enough to

If you were the head of a government, would you be
willing to waive your country's sovereign rights and hand
over ? oh, say, a canal ? to the U.S. of A.?
