I he forum presented by the

(luded seoral panelists from
different backgrounds Panel
istsdiscussed the need for blacks
to leam African hi .torj and
Afro American history so that
blacks as a group can become
unified.
"Blai k and white people

one way to do this would be to

said.

"Afrocentricity is not an in-

a state ot your mentality and it

Another problem that the
panelists discussed is that mi-

ot economics, racism and edu-
cation without unification.

Nursing program
certifies midwives
By Amy Humphries
Staff Writer
A new program at the ECU
School of Nursing may positively
affect the infant mortality rate in
North Carolina. The program will
certify nurses to be nurse mid wives.
" Adding a certified nurse-mid-
wife to the health care system will
have a positive effect on infant
morbidity and mortality in our state
and nation said Dr. Nancy Moss,
assistant professor of parent-child
nursing and director of the nurse-
midwifery program.
The ECU program is the first
in the state and already received
600 inquires since the program's
announcement last fall.
"A principal goal of the pro-
gram is to increase access to health
care for all segments of the popula-
tion Moss said.
Despite the demand for mid-
wivesand midwife programs, they
are very few in number. It is often
hard to get the coopcra tion of phy-
sicians and obstetricians because
the midwives are considered an
economic threat.
"These health care providers
will work in Strwtoftwed, whether
rural or urban, and also will em-
phasize teaching he?lth care to
child- bearing tanil.es Vosssaid.
Infant mortality is a serious
problem in the nation and espe-
cially North Carolina. Studies of
nurse-midwiferv practices consis-
tently show birth outcomes as good
or better than physicians' out-
comes.
There are fewer forceps deliv-
eries, cesarean sections,
episiotomies, stillbirths and low
birth weight babies during nurse-
midwife deliveries.
Midwives may be an answer
to the needs of women who want
to give birth in a natural environ-
ment or who cannot afford a hos-
pital birth. Certified nurse mid-
wives (CNM) specialize in normal
pregnancy and birth and in well-
woman care. They always work in
conjunction with a physician and
are trained to recognize problem
pregnancies.
CNMs work in their own pri-
vate practices, in private physician
practices, freestanding birth cen-
ters, hospitals, health departments
and sometimes homes.
The next group of students will
be admitted into the program in
September. Enrollment will be
limited to 10 students per year be-
cause of intense individualized in-
struction.
Graduates must pass a na-
tional certification examination
approved bv The Amorii.in Col-
lege o! Nurse Midwifery.
Grants from the Kate B.
Reynolds HeaUh Care Trust of
Winston Salem, N.C. and from the
N.C. Department of Environment,
Health and Human Resources will

Most everyone knows that February is rat-
ings month for television stations. It's the time for
all the stations and networks to air the best mov-
ies, create crafty segments to put on their nightly
newscasts and put on their best faces to see who
is number one.
Was the segment done just to pull a few
more viewers to the station for those beloved
ratings? Probably so. Was the segment a good
example of unbiased reporting? Wecommunica-

the story and it is evident WITN failed to do so.
Why was the officer not followed around to
"secure the area at Jenkins Art Building" or to
"check fire alarm in Belk Residence Hall?" A

Scene (reports taken straight from "official" Pub-
lic Safety's logs) proves that the instances shown

? especially if you live on campus?
Public Safety has taken some rather harsh
beatings from local media lately, and maybe this
was an attempt bv WITN to "kiss and make-up"
fortheir fellow medium'sreporting. Whoknows?
Maybe it's the old "I'll pat you on the back, if
you'll pat me on the back" routine.
Either way, WITN cast an unnecessary,
unnewsworthy negative image on ECU and its
students.The deeds of the minority were brought
to light and that negative image was cast upon all
ECU students ? even the ones who don't go
"out That's like saying every administrator at
ECU knew about the illegal wiretapping.
It was not too long ago that ECU students
had a "Purple day" ? a day in which students
didn't spend their money in any Greenville es-
tablishment to protest unfair treatment from the
community.
Maybe the citizens of Greenville and the
surrounding area need to be again reminded of
the impact this university and its students have
on this Eastern North Carolina town.

Letters to the Editor
Alumnus disagrees with columnist's views
To The Editor:
After reading Mr. Hicks' edito-
rial column in the Jan 28 issue of The
East Carolinian, I have decided to give
some comments concerning his
opinion about the freedom of speech
in this country.
I fully agree with the futility of
most of the issues raised (porno-
graphic magazines. Communism,
Anarchism, flag burning). However,
there is a big difference between ob-
jecting to something and prohibiting
the same. If you don't want your kids
to support pornography, violence,
etc talk to them about it. They will
hear about anything, legal or not.
But most of the time, things are
not that clear-cut. For example, al-
though Capitalism isa better economic
system compared to the state-con-
trolled economy run by Communist
governments, it is not perfect. Just ask
the thousand of unemployed Ameri-
cans who are desperately trying to
find a job before even their extended
benefits run out. Maybe the Commu-
nists in this country are merely trying
to introduce an improved system of
social security which has been in place
in many other Capitalist countries for
years. With the freedom of speech in
place you have every opportunity to
convince them to change their mind
with any arguments you may choose.
As long as neither of the sides are
going to suppress most or part of the
population, all arguments are fair
game.
I wouldalso like to urge Mr.

Out-of-touch George Bush
went grocery shopping last week
and couldn't believe the price of
pork rinds, the President's choice
snack, had escalated four-fold since
his last trip to Harris Teeter in the
mid70s.
George Herbert stood in the
express line with 12 items, instead
of the Harris Teeter mandate of 10
items. Under the clearly labeled
CASH ONLY sign, he extracted a
check book containing checks em-
bossed with the Presidential Seal
and a diminutive Millie.
Check-out person Louise
asked: "Paper, plastic or the worst
environmental track record of all
time?" Louise, who makes $5 an
hour with no health benefits, then
dragged the bags of pork rinds and
several jars of Gerber's Crushed
'N' Strained Peas (for Danny)
across that new, fangled techno-
logical advance called the price
scanner.
"Gee, what is that?" came the
whiny emanation from the non-
readable lips of the Bushman. Aids
(not the disease) quickly whisked
Bush away, explaining that: "No,
the electronic scanner isn't some-
thing out of Buck Rodgars, but m
fact, it is a devise which has only
added to grocery shoppers' inces-
sant waiting
The President's ignorance of
the price scanner, a prevalent su-
permarket fixture, is symptomatic
of the overriding out-of-touchness
demonstrated by the nation's lead-
ers.
Hicks to keep up with the current
events of a region he is going to write
about. I suspect that by writing
"Russia" he was referring to the Soviet
Union which ceased to exist at the end
of last year, partly because the new
governments arc trying to introduce a
market economy there. Is this the right
place "Ivan and his Revolutionary
Band" are suppose to go to? I abso-
lutely don't like this notion of "agree
or get out" anyway. Exactly this hap-
pened in the former Soviet Union with
dissidents until a few years ago. They
were sent to Siberia, if they were lucky
enough not to be executed.

Without taking weekly jaunts
through the canned and boxed
aisles of a Piggly Wiggly, politi-
cians can't have empathy for the
common person. Without writing
a $88.73 check with only a $17.56
balance, these fanaglers of billions
of dollars will never realize the true
dimensions of a budget crunch.
The reduced pork chops simi-
larly don't hold any bones to the
State dinner and the filet mignon
in the Senate Commissary.
Swept away by black limos
? mostly beautiful elongated
Cadillacs of Earlvene heritage
Senators, Cabinet members and
Herbert have no idea what is wrong
with Detroit (which is pronounced
"De-troit" in Chocowinity). Chauf-
feured around Capitol Hill, the
leaders literally have no 'hands-on
experience' of the American auto-
mobile industry. The last vehicle
Herbert actually drove was a golf
cart.
Also, George has no idea
about health care. His heart stop-
page ? the one in which we all
feared the Sesame Street White
House ? was revived in a Navy
hospital, free of charge. In a de-
mented form of socialized medi-
cine. Bush's bi-monthly check-ups
are administered by the best doc-
tors.
The free health care plan of
the rich and mightv law makers
can't compare to a ?3,000 tax break
health plan for lower income fami-
lies.
The ailing auto industry,
health care and supermarket scan-
ners are but a few items the Bushian
regime doesn't have a grasp on. On
other issues, a callous effacement
is to blame rather than a total igno-
rance. Nightly, homeless cuddle to
collect warm stream near the White
House.

Books on computer will replace paper
By Scott
Maxwell
Editorial
Columnist
Argh. Trade deficits, civil for-
feitures, the '92 campaign, the reces-
sion I need a break. I think I'll just
curl up with an electronic copy of
Alice in Wonderland and
Oh, yes. An electronic copy,
courtesy of Project Gutenberg.
What Project Gutenberg is, is
the brainchild of a loon named
Michael Hart (he prefers the term
"technofreak"). For 21 years, Hart,
some graduate assistants and a loose
confederation of computer users
around the world have labored to
transfer books onto computer disks.
Once a book has been transferred to
disk, the machine-readable copy is
called an "e-text" ? and such e-
texts will be a big part of your fu-
ture.
By the year 2001, Hart hopes.
Project Gutenberg will have made
10,000 books available as machine-
readable text, with a cost to the user
of one cent per book. In other words,
within nine years, you'll be able to
get 10,000 books for about $100, plus
thecost of the disks (or CD-ROMs or
whatever) and mailing.
Today, that $100 will buy you
only 20 or 30 paperbacks. Think
about it.
What sort of books is Project
Gutenberg making available? Well,
everything. There's unexciting but
useful ituff, like Roget's Thesaurus
and The CIA World Factbook. And
there's interesting stuff, like Alice in
Wonderland and Peter Pan.
To avoid copyright hassles.
Project Gutenberg "e-publishes"
only works in the public domain,
and only works that have been pub-
lished in the United States. But that
still leaves a wealth of material.
Project Gutenberg e-publishes
all works in ASCII format. Put sim-
ply, ASCII is a standardized code
for representing text in a computer
? meaning that the same copy of
Alice in Wonderland works as well on
an IBM PC as it does on my Amiga,
or on the Macintoshes at The East
Carolinian. (Viruses are no threat;
they can't be spread via these ASCII
flies.)
The relatively few computer
systems that don't use ASCII nearly
always provide some easy way to
translate an ASCII file to a usable
format.
In short, practically anyone
with a computer, even an old or un-
usual machine, can use Project
Gutenberg's e-texts.
E-texts have numerous advan-
tages, not least to political colum-
nists like myself. A few weeks back,
I wanted to include one of the mor-
als from Aesop's Fables in a column,
but I couldn't remember how the
stupid thing was worded, and I
couldn't find it in my battered old
paperback copy. 1 must have looked
for ten minutes before giving up in
frustration.
Just for the heck of it, last week-
end I downloaded Aesop s Fables
from Project Gutenberg's archives.
My computer then found the fable I
was looking for in less than three
seconds That's less time than it took
me to locate my copy of the book on
my bookshelves.
Convinced?
Part of the larger goal of Project
Gutenberg is to help harness the
enormous power of computers to
assist in doing just what 1 was trying
to do: research. Most of the time
involved in writing any report. Hart
notes, is spent looking up the needed
material in a library.
Hart imagines being able to do
all the research you need for any
report, right at your own computer.
If you're writing a report on gastro-
pods, a few keystrokes will bring
you practically every word ever
written on the subject.
If your own resources aren't
sufficient, you might call a library
computer and have it search even
more works. You can even down-
load an entire book from the library
computer. Then it's yours forever ?
no fines, no hassle.
For people who don't try to
write good papers anyway. Hart
notes, faster access to research mate-
rials won't make much difference.
But for the rest of us, it's an enor-
mous advantage.
Imagine tapping into encyclo-
pedia and dictionary entries, techni-
cal journals, stories and poems, all
on the same topic ? in seconds. Not
only will you save time, you'll also
be able to do much more thorough
research than you could hope to do
in a present-day library with paper-
based books. Quotations will be per-
fectly accurate ? just cut and paste.
Hart made me promise to as-
suage the fears of librarians who
may read this column. With the ad-
vent of e-texts, he says, we'll need
librarians even more. After all, you
can get lost in your personal copy of
the Library of Congress almost as
easily as you can get lost in the real
thing.
There's a lot of information in
there, enough to confuse even skilled
computer users on occasion.
Hart thinks librarians will
come to be more like computer con-
sultants, but their jobs will remain
essentially the same: they'll help
people find books containing needed
information. Better yet, librarians
will be freed from the drudgery of
circulation and re-shelving, and do-
ing all the other boring things librar-
ians have to do.
In addition to speeding up re-
search and taking some of the bore-
dom out of librarians' lives, e-texts
have less obvious advantages
They're never checked out when vou
need them. They don't useup papi -
of course, so they're environmen-
tally sound.
Publishing new editions ot
books is less difficult, because pub-
lishing itself is less difficult. Just re-
vise the original version as needed
? on disk ? and let readers get the
new edition wherever they got the
old one. The end result is faster up-
dating of books, with mistakes cor-
rected sooner.
E-publishing also makes books
much less expensive, since electronic
publishing and distribution are so
much cheaper than today's meth-
ods. About 10 to 15 percent of a
book's cost is the actual cost of mak-
ing the book; the rest goes to the
people involved in getting that book
to you ? the writer, the publisher
(and the editors he employs), the
distributor, and the retailer.
E-texts cut out everybody but
the writer and (one hopesi an editor,
thus saving more than 90 percent ot
the cost. The cost of media is nomi-
nal ? under S2 for a CD-ROM,
maybe 50 cents for a diskette And
you can provide your own media,
perhaps downloading a book di-
rectly from the writer's computer
Think of how much less money you'll
spend at the campus bookstore
E-texts are great, but they're
not perfect. Yet.
E-texts are more useful for par-
ticular jobs, certainly.
But paper will remain the pri-
mary med ium for new works at least
as long as some problems remain
unsolved.
How, for instance, will ween-
sure writers are compensated for
their work, if everyone can cheaply
distribute copies of books as widely
as they please? The problem is being
attacked, but the solution is years
away.
Still, e-texts are the wave of
the future. And the future is excit-
ing.

you'll even consider donating time
or money to the project; they'd love
you forever ? you can e-mail Hart

By Margi Morin
SUf f Writer
Former ECU student Kenny
Soule returned to Greenville Feb.
14 to perform at The Attic's Heart-
breaker concert featuring The
Original Nantuckett and Garden
of Souls.
Soule started his career while
a percussion-performance student
at ECU'S School of Musk. Together
with Eddie Blair, currently
Nantuckett's sax player, he formed
Brass Park which performed at The
Attic in the early '70s.
According to The Attic's
owner, Joe Tronto, Soule is one of
the best drummers to come out of
North Carolina.
Soule later went on the road
with Nantuckett in 1972. In 1977
the band became a national act and
signed with Epic records, produc-
ing reconis for the rext three years.
ml980,Nantuckettopened for
ACDC during their "Back in
Black" tour. The band also head-
lined at Carowinds, Minges and
Reynolds Coliseums and many
other colleges.
Souk left Nantuckett to start
the power trio, PKM. However,
the original Nantuckett members
decided to reunite two years ago.

the release of their first tape.

vocalist. "We've had people come up to us
after a show asking for a tape, and we did
have one, but it was recorded on a portable

thing that'll last more than two weeks
The album, self-titled and indepen-
dently released and di stributed by the Earth
Murchants, includes a variety of songs.
Two were written by the present members,
one written by a friend, David Bradshaw,
and theother three were written with former
members. The tape will be available at local
record stores Fridav.
Drummer Marc Petruska describes the
release as a "broad spectrum
In addition to Barwick and Petruska,
the members of this Green villc-based band
are: Bobby Phillips, guitar; Jay Thigpen,
guitar; and Eric Creta, bass.
The Earth Murchants formed in Kinston
in November 18U. The current five musi-
cians have been playing together since
August, because of a drummer and guitar-
ist replacement.
The band plays progressi ve alternative
college-type music. Creta describes it as
"music that doesn't get played on highly-
commercialized radio
The group's musical influences range
from REM to Peter Gabriel and Sting. Clas-
sic, country, bluegrass and old blues are a
few types of music they listen to.
The members write their own separate
parts of the songs, making it a group effort.
"I like to look at some of my favorite
artist's lyrics and see how that person looks
at things Barwick said. "We sort of have a
tough time writing songs because we wrote
some and Marc (Petruska) came in and,
therefore, he had to learn the songs and, by
the time he got them down pat, Bob
(Phillips) came in and, in turn, had to learn
the songs. So we're just now getting back to
creative, to writing. 1 finally feel like we've
got a band
The Earth Murchants have fanned out
to play all over the state, including Char-
lotte, Greensboro, Raleigh, Winston Salem,
Wilmington, Nagshead, Atlantic Beach and
Virginia Beach, Va. They hope to play next
at the Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill.
"We'll play anywhere that'll have us
Barwick said, laughing.
"We'll even play in your living room
"Well play anywhere
that'll have us!
Well even play in your
living room
Petruska added.
The Earth Murchants, like many other
beginning Kinds, are struggling through
the "getting established" phase.
"It's tough ? if you ha vea daytime job
and you're out there working Creta said.
"You get home and ask, "Are we gonna
have band practice tonight?' lib yeah
I think so, let's try for 8 tonight Everyone's
tired, someone lays down for a nap at
7o'clock, then someone else decides to take
a quick nap. It's hard to be really creative
when vou're fired
Being in a band is much more than just
the final product; it takes hard work and
dedication.
"You can have practice too much ? get
burned out, burned ou ton each other. After
a whileit only takesa few days where vou've

got to have it; it's fuel, if s a release, you do
it Barwick added.
The members are happy with where
the Earth Murchants are now, but all agree
that their ultimate goal is to quit working
and play all the time.
"Not a lot of people get the chance to
really do what they want to do Petruska
said. "You look around and see people in
their little 9 to 5 jobs. That's not for us
"As long as thev enjoy it Barwick
said, adding to Petruska s comment.
"There's a lot of people who do that and
that's what thev want to do, that's axil ?
thev make a lot more monev than 1 do. Not
that money really matters, but I iio like to
eat once in awhile
"We want to do this thing Creta said.
"If it falls apart, that's cool, but we'll give it
a shot. If it can't work, at least we'll know.
You can't wait for it to come to vou ? gotta
go out after it. I'm sure we'll be cruising it for
awhile
"From what I've seen, it seems that the
bands who actually do something are the
one's who have been around for a long time
and reallv done all thev can Barwick said.
"In the public eye that says a lot. You see
bands forming and thev give up and fall
apart ? if thev had stuck together and kept
going and going who knows where they'd
be. That's what we're trying to do now
The Earth Murchants like Greenville,
but agree that the distance to other gigs is
almost too much. They hope to move to
Raleigh soon.
"I loveGreenville,but it's hard on driv-
ing Barwick said. "We're trying to get
there (Triangle area) because there are lots
of bands there doing well. We want to go
there and meet people, get a change of
scene
"The bast thingabout these(Greenville)
bandsis that if skind of a family?you see
them out on the streets and we're all kind of
tight Petruska said. "If s not competitive,
not a back-stabbing thing either.
Everybody's helping each other out. If one
band ma kesit thenit looks good for the rest
of us
'That kind of jealousy, that competi-
tion, 'Somebody else is in a band, well,
we're better than you and that sort of
thing, it's kind of screwed up Barwick
said. "That's no way to be
Barwick explained the origin of the
name, Earth Murchants, saying, "1 used to
landscape and one night we were all sitting
around drinking and I was drawing car-
toons on a newspaper. The symbol of the
place I used to work at was a shovel that
turned into a tree so I drew that in Daniel
Boone's hand. A friend of ours, Lee McGee,
came in and said, 'What is that? An earth
merchant?' That name kind of clicked, so
we wrote i t down. And then another friend,
Bill Whi taker, said that 'mur' in Russian
was world peace, so it's like a chant ?
earth-peace
What is it like on stage for these guys?
'There's nothing in the world like it
Barwick said. "When ifs going really well,
and the crowd's great ifs like being free
"It's like eating a York peppermint
patty Petruska said.

Dillon
jumps

By Mark Brett
Staff Writer
"Catchy Thaf s the first word
that comes to mind when thinking of
North Carolina's latest progressive
rock band, Dillon Fence. Their latest
album, Rosemary, is a hook-crazy
collection of tunes that induce an
annoyingly soulful humming for
hours after listening (if only because
of their familiarity).
Like many North Carolina bands,
Dillon Fence produces REM-influ-
enced progressive rock. Instead of
drawing extra inspiration from the
Ramones or Bob Marley, however,
Dillon Fence looks to classic pop for
its musical twist. These boys listened
to lots of Motown, and it shows.
Rosemary givesus40minutesofjangly
guitar pop, no excuses or apologies
offered.
Unfortunately,an apology might
be a good idea. For the most part, few
original spins are put on the source
material. The songs are weplayed,
but Rosemary still sounds like 50 or 60
other albums out there, a couple of
them by the Smithereens. All in all,
the music is pretty bland. But the
strength of the albu m is i n i ts 1 yrics, a s
is the case with most derivative prog-
rock bands. Stunningly innovative
musical questering is simply not of
prime importance here.
Dillon Fence takes the old stan-
dard theme of "love and lies" and
manages to inject some new life into
it. Rather than degenerate into angst-
ridden heartbreak or retreat onto the
safe-but-well-travelled ground of
woman-done me-wrong songs, they
write "1 Understand" or "Here'sSome
Advice" songs. While this kind of
sensitive male stuff has certainly been
prevalent in society for a while now,
applying it to romantic betrayal pop
tunes must certainly be something
new.
And mixing that sentiment with
romantic nature imagery, as they do
on the opening track "Daylight is
definitely something else again.
"Springtime slides, raining, 'cross that
bloom croons frontman Greg
Humphreys after the second bridge.
Addressed to some unidentified fe-
male, the song abounds with lines
like that, all to lament the passing of
"the hope in your eyes But rather
than depressing the listener, the for-

Dillon
jumps

"Catchy That's the first word
that comes to mind when thinking of
North Carolina's latest progressive
rock band, Dillon Fence. Their latest
album, Rosemary, is a hook-crazy
collection of tunes that induce an
annoyingly soulful humming for
hours after listening (if only because
of their familiarity).
Like many North Ca mlina bands,
Dillon Fence produces REM-influ-
enced progressive rock. Instead of
drawing extra inspiration from the
Ramones or Bob Marley, however,
Dillon Fence looks to classic pop for
its musical twist. These boys listened
to lots of Motown, and it shows.
RusCTrwrygivesus40minutesof)anglv
guitar pop, no excuses or apologies
offered.
Unfortunately, an apology might
be a good idea. For the most part, few
original spins are put on the source
material. The songs are weplayed,
but Rosemary still sounds like 50or 60
other albums out there, a couple of
them by the Smithereens. All in all,
the music is pretty bland. But the
strength of thealbum is in its lyrics, as
is the case with most denvabve prog-
rock bands. Stunningly innovative
musical questenng is simplv not of
prime importance here.
Dillon Fence takes the old stan-
dard theme of "love and lies" and
manages to inject some new life into
it. Rather than degenerate into angst-
ndden heartbreak or retreat onto the
safe-but-well-travelled ground of
woman-done me-wrong songs, thev
write "1 Understand" or" Here' sSome
Advice" songs. While this kind of
sensitive male stuff has certainly been
prevalent in society for a while now,
applying it to romantic betrayal pop
tunes must certainly be something
new.
And mixing that sentiment with
romanric nature imagery, as thev do
on the opening track "Daylight is
definitely something else again.
"Springtime slides, raining, 'cross that
bloom croons frontman Greg
Humphreys after the second bndge.
Addressed to some unidentified fe-
male, the song abounds with lines

Former ECU student Kenny
Soule returned to Greenville Feb.
14 to perform at The Attic's Heart-
breaker concert featuring The
Original Nantuckett and Garden
of Souls.
Soule started his career while
a percussion-performance student
at ECU'sSchool of Music. Together
with Eddie Blair, currently
Nantuckett's sax player, he formed
Brass Park which performed at The
Attic in the earlv '70s.
According to The Attic's
owner, Joe Tronto, Soule is one of
the best drummers to come out of
North Carolina.
Soule later went on the road
with Nantuckett in 1972. In 1977
the band became a national act and
signed with Epic records, produc-
ing records for the next three years.
In 1980, Nantuckett opened for
ACDC during their "Back in
Black" tour. The band also head-
lined at Carowinds, Minges and
Reynolds Coliseums and many
other colleges.
Soule left Nantuckett to start
the power trio, PKM. However,
the original Nantuckett members
decided to reunite two years ago.
"The Original Nantuckett's
roots go back to the '60s rock
bands Soule said. "The band's
sound is a cross of Aerosmith,
Tower of Power, beach music and
Johnny Winter. We're too colorful
for our own good
Soule said the band is too var-
ied for today's radio station for-
mats.
Nantuckett's latest product is
Reunited Nantuckett Live, which
contains both new and old songs.
Last year, Soule teamed up
with former PKM members Mike
and PhilipGardner to form Garden
of Souls.
"We play a collective mix of
stuff ? ACDC meets Tears for
Fears meets John Lennon Soule
said.
According to Soule, Garden of
Souls has made some good demos,
and a cassette is on the way.
The drummer also performs
in Asylum Hill, a Raleigh-based
band and instructs percussion stu-
dents.
Soule stressed that you cannot
be in the business for the money,
saying.
"Make sure you're passionate
about playing. Money is rarely
there. The only way to survive is if
playing is all you want Soule said.

Lady Pirates set NCAA record
Team makes 48 free throws in American win
By Lisa Spiridopolus
Staff Writer
some things in life aren't free
othefsare Just askECU'sGaynor
() Vnnell and the Lady Pirates'
basketful team.
O'Donnell and the women's
basketball program entered the
NCA A avord books Saturday night
as they connected on 48-of-58 free
throw attempts in their 100-81 vic-
tory over American University. The
out record was held by Northern
Arizona with 46 free throws in 1986.
"We shot our free throws really
well and that helped us keep our
margin said ECU Head coach Pat
I Vrson. "We played good defense
in the first half and we did a good
ion of keeping our composure in the
second half
The team continues to roll
through the Colonial Athletic Asso-
ciation as they collected two more
ictories over the weekend, which
improved their record to 9-1 in con-
ference play and 15-6 overall. The
Lady Pirates gained sole posses-
sion of first place with their victory
over American University Satur-
day and Monday's 67-57 overtime
win against George Mason Univer-
sity.
In Saturday's contest at Ameri-
can, O'Donnell hit for a career high
14-of-14 free throws, while team-
mates Rhonda Smith went 11-for-
13 and Tonya Hargrove hit eight-
of-11. The Lady Pirates also broke
their own free throw attempts (39)
and free throws made (26) record in
the contest. The old record was set
against N.C State on Jan. 20,1977
and tied on Feb. 26, 1977 against
UNC?Chapel Hill.
ECU jumped out to a quick 6-0
lead and never looked back. The
team built a 21-point lead by the
end of the first half.
The Eagles had their share of
problems. They shot 33 percent from
the field, had 12 turnovers and had
four players with three fouls at the
half.
Incomparison, the Lady Pirates
had all but one player score, were
shooting 81 percent from the foul
line and had 20 rebounds (eight by
Hargrove).
The Lady Eagles were able to
cut ECU'S margin to 13 after the
half, but that was as close as they
would get to a much stronger Lady
Pirate team.
By the end of the game, Ameri-
can had three of their players foul
out and committed over 20 turn-
overs.
Smith led all scorers with 25
points, one point shy of her career
best. Hargrove (12 rebounds) and
Gaynor O'Donnell (nine assists)
each had 16 points and Kcnneya
Wilson added 15.
Mondav night's win against the
Lady Patriots wasn't quite as easy.
ECU held just a six-point lead
at the half and could never build a
substantial margin over a tough
GMU team. Marcell Harrison nailed
her third three-pointer of the half
with :35 to go in regulation to tie the
game at 54. Connie Small's shot
with :05 left fell short and the game
went to overtime.
The Lady PiratesallowedGMU
to score just three points in theovcr-
time. Again it was sharp shooting
from the free throw line for ECU.
They hit five important shots in the
overti me to secure the 10-poi nt win.
Connie Small went 6-6 from
thelineand finished with20points,
a career high 16 rebounds and four
steals.
"I'm real proud of our girls
Piersonsaid. "It wasn'ta pretty win
for us, but we played hard and

By Robert S. Todd
Staff Writer
Sweet Georgia Brown, the Yo-
Yo ball, the Weave and buckets
of confetti came to Minges Coli-
seum Wednesday night, along
with the Harlem Globetrotters.
Thousands of people lined up
to watch Michael "Memphis"
Douglas do such amazing things as bounce a
basketball off his butt and shoot behind-the-
back three-pointers.
Most people are familiar with the Harlem
Globetrotters' Curley Neal and Twiggy Sand-
ers, both of whom are North Carolina natives.
Unfortunately they were not with the team in
Greenville ? their absence did nothing to
prevent Harlem's finest from bringing the
crowd to their feet all night long.
"Memphis" had the fans roaring with
laughter as he danced with crimson-faced
women and showed off one referee's porky
stomach. "Memphis aside from doingStevie
Wonder imitations, canalso play. He launched
himself into the atmosphere, on several occa-
sions, for reverse jams (thaf s jam as in dunk -
not as in Smuckers).
Tyrone "Hollywood" Brown awed the
crowd with his dribbling, bouncing the ball
between his legs with blinding speed. Heonce
co-starred on the hit television show "L.A.
Law" and is believed to be the fastest dribbler
in the world.
The team also features a quasi-local talent
from North Carolina Central University,
Donald Sinclair.
Jolette "Jazzy" Law, standing a scant 5-
foot, 4-inches, was the only woman with the
team. Despite her size she managed to sink
several half-court shots during warm-ups.
The Trotters' token opponent, the Wash-
ington Generals, were no match for the de-
signed plays of the red, white and blue. In
addition, the Generals were weighed down
with honorary players Todd Gibsonand Brian
Bailey, both of whom are television personali-
ties. Bailey and Gibson were fouled immedi-
ately and each hit the first of their free throws.
"Memphis" made it a bit harder on Gibson's
second shot from the charity stripe by deli ver-
ingan envelope to his mailbox (a wedgie to the
older readers).
The 'lean, mean, yellow and green" Gen-
erals were demolished by the Globetrotters
who maintained a lead of more than 20 points
most of the night and won, 84-71.
The children enjoying the game were a
littleyoung to remember the exploits of referee
Sly Thompson. This zebra never officiated a
NBA game ? he was once a singer with the
popular 70s' group The Village People.

Helios to debut new team in Charlottesville
By Amy Clapp
Suf f Writer
The ECU women's frisbee
team, the Helios, begin their
spring season this weekend. The
toam will travel to Charlottesville,
Va for a tournament hosted by
the University of Virginia. The
Helios will be competing with six
other women's teams from all
over the East Coast.
Last semester the Helios fin-
ished a strong fall season by win-
ning Ultimax, ECU'S home tour-
nament.
December graduation left the
Helios without several key veter-
ans, but with the addition of seven
new players this semester and
unparalleled support from new
coach John "Wobble" Welch,
sights have been set on an out-
standing season.
The women have mixed en-
durance on offense with speed
and agility on defense giving
them a powerful combination.
"I feel we arc the strongest
we've ever been Kara Macalusa
said. "We have a lot of determina-
tion which hopefully will bring
us a chance to compete in the
National Collegiate Champion-
ships at the end of the season
After this weekend, the
schedule continues with tourna-
ments in Atlanta and Columbia,
S.C during Spring Break.
On March 21-22, the Helios
will be in Wilmington, N.C, for
Collegiate Easterns and then it is
back home April 4 and 5 for
Ultimax.
The ECU rugby team hosted
their first "The Ground Ain't
Frozen" rugby tournament over
the weekend. The seven teams
pU.ved in a round-robin fashion.
ECU was the first team to
plav.J.J. McCain and Jason Webb
each scored, but both conver-
sion attempts were unsuccess-
ful. Jerry Stephenson made a
penalty kick and ECU came
nwav with a hard-fought 11-0
victory.
Meanwhile, the Greenville
Reapers defeated Chnstopher-
Newport in the Reaper's first
gameasaclub. Virginia Military
Institute out-played and de-
feated South Carolina, and Cape
Fear was awarded a bye when
York University failed to show
up.
The Pirates next match was
not asdifficult as their first. David
"Fish" Parker and Webb each
had two tries to lead ECU in
scoring. Chris Camey, Mark
Grant and Richard "Opie" Moss
also scored. The most impres-
sive run of the day came when
Bert Hewitt juked the entire de-
fense for his first score of the
year. ECU made half of their
conversion kicks to win 40-4.
InotherSaturday games, the
Greenville Reapers beat
Longwood, and Cape Fear beat
South Carolina.
Sunday brought on the
semi-finals. Cape Fear handily
defeated VM1. ECU was paired
with the Reapers, a team which
was compiled of ECU alumni.
The Reapers came out
strong but a strong Pirate de-
fense, led by Rich Hooten, al-
lowed them only a penalty kick
after several toiled sconng at-
tempts. Webb intercepted a pass
to put ECU on the board. Moss'
kick was good and ECU had a 6-
3 lead.
The superior conditioning
of ECU was their advantage as
their lead continued to grow. J
Blair Bvrd rushed a penalty play,
then passed to Mark Grant for
another Pirate try. The kick was
good.
McCain managed to
strengthen the ECU lead when
he scored in the corner of the try
zone. Stephenson also made a
penalty kick. ECU won 19-3, and
retained bragging rights in
Greenville.
After a short break, the Pi-
rates took the field against their
sister club. Cape Fear. ECU be-
gan on a positive note when
Webb scored early. Moss' kick
was perfect and ECU had a 6-0
lead.
Fear would not let this last
long though. They scored twice
beforehalftime to regain thelead,
8-6.
After the five minute inter-
mission, ECU againcaptured the
lead. Aaron Back blocked a kick
and Mark Grant recovered it for
a try. Moss' kick was again good
and the Pirates led 12-8.
After this, Fear's experience
began to shine through. They
slowly backed ECU down the
field and finally tied the game at
12-12. They then continued to
make a penalty kick, score again
and make their conversion.

The ECU baseball team opened the 1992 season with wins over Pembroke State and CarnpbeM. The Pirates,
looking to defend their 1991 Colonial Athletic Association Championship, will host UNC-Greensboro today.

Staff Writer
The three essentials to winning a baseball game are
good pitching, solid hitting and defense. ECU Head
baseball coach Gary Overton saw all three Wednesday
at Harrington Field.
Behind an outstanding pitching effort from Jim
Ambrosius and Lyle Hartgrove, ECU defeated the
Campbell Camels 5-2 to improve their record to 2-0 on
the season.
"Our pitching was excellent today Overton said.
"It (pitching) has carried us so far this season
After escaping an early bases-loaded jamm the first
inning, the Pirates took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the
second. Sophomore shortstop Chad Triplett's first
homerun of the year off Campbell starter Mike Griffin
(0-1) gave ECU a 2-0 lead.
The Pirates struck for three more runs in the fourth
inning. Pat Watkins was hit by a pitch with the bases
loaded to force in Stancil Morse. A single by Tom Move
scored Heath Clark and Watkins to give the Pirates a
comfortable 5-0 lead.
Still plagued by incortsistencies at the plate, ECU
has had to rely mainly on their pitching so far this
season.
" We need to put more pressure on the opposition
