University considers plusminus grading system
ByJoeHorst
Staff Writer
The ECU Faculty Senate is consid-
ering a proposal that would change the
current grading policy on this campus
to a plusminus system.
In March 1989, the Faculty Senate
approved a recommendation for a new
grading system based on a similar sys-
tem that North Carolina State Univer-
sity had proposed. The new grading
system would include pluses and mi-
nuses and further distinguish the cur-
rent four-point grading system by in-
crements of .3 points.
At the time Chancellor Richard
Eakin vetoed the proposal, stating his
concern that the proposed changes
would adversely affect the students. He
also stated that little evidence existed to
show that the current system did not
adequately evaluate the students' per-
formances.
Bob Woodside, chair of the Fac-
ulty Senate Credits Committee, said the
chancellor was willing to look at the
matter at a later date.
"In his letter to the Faculty Sen-
ate, he also said he'd be willing to con-
sider another proposal, but didn't want
one immediately Woodside said.
Theonly difference between ECU's
and NCSU's proposed policy is the re-
moval of the A grade if the policy was
to be introduced into ECU's administra-
tion. Individuals opposed to the Agrade
cited the fact that only two colleges in the
country had adopted an A system,
Cornell and Columbia Universities.
After holding various open meet-
ings to discuss the matter, NCSU offi-
cials summarized the major concerns
of both the students and the faculty at
Students with borderline grades may
be assigned different grades on very
minor performance differences; stu-
dents can also be assigned the same
"In the way I awarded grades over the
years, 1 think my students would have come
out just about even. Some people would have
actually passed the course, maybe where they
got an F

The faculty at NCSU said the grad-
ing scale would allow for a more precise
and accurate representation in grading.

A state-of-the-art print communications
media laboratory at ECU has been named for a
university alumnus, the late Charles Silas
Edwards, a former official with the North Caro-
lina Department of Justice.
The lab features a Macintosh Ilci teaching
computer, 15 macintosh student computers a CD-
ROM player and other computer-related equip-
ment, along with writing, page design, art and
reference software. The lab is believed to beamong
the best of its type in the nation, according to Dr.
T. Harrell Allen, who is chair of the communica-
tion department, ECU's newest academic depart-
ment.
The original seed money to equip the lab
was contributed by Edwards' daughter, Mary
Edwards Plybon and her husband, Robert, resi-
dents of Greensboro, and Edwards' widow, the
former Eula Sawrey. Additional money came
from ECU's own fund for computing and tech-
nology improvements.
The media lab replaces an older lab com-
prised of computers which will be distributed to
faculty offices, Allen said. With the installation of
the lab, ECU has within one year "from obsoles-
cence to the state of the art Allen said.
"Wonderful things can happen when pri-
vate donations are combined with strong support
from the university Allen said. "Our media lab
is now the best in the state and as good as any in
the nation
The lab was formally dedicated in an Octo-
ber 29 ceremony in the General Classroom Build-
ing. Attending were Edwards' widow, thePlybons
and their children and university officials and
members of the communication department fac-
ulty.
Before unveiling a plaque mounted outside
the lab door, Mary Plybon of her father's student
days at ECU in the '30s, when a primitive campus
"media lab supervised by the late English pro-
fessor Mary Greene, consisted 6f a typewriter, a
lead pencil and a table-model radio.
After the ceremony, members of the com-
munication faculty demonstrated various types
of equipment in the lab, showing how ECU stu-
dents are usingit to write, editand design various
publications for their communication classes.
Chancellor Richard Eakin explained the al-
though the lab is currently housed in Room 2025
of the General Classroom Building, it may be

Woodside said.
Students at NCSU expressed con-
cerns that grade point averages might
suffer and affect financial aid or schol-
arships. They also said the grading scale
should be equitable to all students and
that all professors would use the scale
in the same way.
Woodside said that in his grad-
ing experience, the change in the sys-
tem would not have had a major effect
overall.

Policy on gays
in military affects
ROTC programs
By Karen Hassell
Staff Writer
President-elect Bill Clinton's plan to lift the ban on
homosexuals in the U.S. military has sparked controversy
between left and right ideologies.
Clinton plans to issuean executiveorder to repeal the
Department of Defense directive that bans gays and lesbi-
ans from military service.
Military departments at ECU would not comment
on the situation.
"Officially, we do not make comments on specula-
tions said Lt. Col. James M. George of the department of
aerospace studies. "The current DOD standards are what
we operate under
The University of Missouri-Columbia is reacting to
the call for change. Organizations on campus have been
trying to remove the ROTC unit because of its policy of
denying entrance to homosexuals.
"ROTC has its hands tied because of policy said
Scott Murphy, a cadet at the University of Missouri-Co-
lumbia. "It's not fair to take away my ability to pay for
school. It isn't fair for them to blame ROTC for a policy
made in Washington
President Bush said he would not change the current
policy, which states in part that "homosexuality is incom-
patible with military service. The presence of such mem-
bers adversely affects the ability of the Armed Forces to
maintain discipline, good order, and morale
Bob Knight, director of cultural studies with the
Family Research Council, agreed.
"The military is unlikecivilian life. Ihaveno problem
working alongside homosexuals he said. "I have. But I
didn't have to eat with them, sleep with them, be in
intimate circumstances around the clock. And in the mili-
tary that's sometimes demanded of you
Clinton, however, has promised to do away with the
policy and allow openly homosexual individuals to join
and stay in the military.
Neal Snow, a University of Maine senior, was re-
cently dismissed from ROTC when he told officers he is
gay-
Snow was the fourth-highest ranking cadet in the
corps, a student senator and is a member of a honorary
society for service to the school and academic achievement
The current policy conflicts with universities' equal
opportunity policies regarding race, religion, sexual pref-
erence and other factors.

Hacker faces felony charges
The FBI has charged that a University of Washington student
used the campus computer system to break into systems at Boeing,
a U.S. District Court and the Environmental Protection Agency.
According to the FBI complaint, Charles Matthew Anderson, 19a
university student, and Costa George Katsaniotis, 21, of Seattle,
were charged Nov. 10 with conspiracy to defraud the United States'
The two men could face maximum sentences of five years in prison
and a $10,(XX) fine if convicted on the charges. The two reportedly
said they broke into the computer systems as a challenge, rather
than to obtain any vital information.
Hunger awareness week held
Students and faculty at Dickinson College held a Hunger and
Homelessness Awareness Week, slept outdoors in cardboard boxes
and fasted to understand these social problems. The students held
a hunger banquet, where they were randomly divided into First,
Second and Third World people and given a meal traditionally
eaten by those populations. They then spent a night outdoors and
fasted. Theobservance was expanded fromoneday to fourdays this
year due to an increase of student interest, said Marty Willard, the
assistant director of the school's religious affairs office. The office
has organized an annual day of fasting since 1976 to show concern
for the hungry in the United States and abroad.
Examination switch results in charges
Two California men were sentenced to probation after plead-
ing no contest to criminal charges arising from a cheating scheme in
which one student paid a National Merit scholar $400 to take an
economics examination tor him. Tony H. Lee, 20, a student at the
California State University, Northridge, and Parousia Liu, 20, a
National Merit scholar enrolled at the University of California at Los
Angeles, were charged Nov. 19 with falsifying a driver's license.
They faced maximum penalties of a year in jail and a $1,000 fine. On
Nov. 24, both men pleaded no contest to the charges. Liu was fined
$445, while Lee was fined $364. Each was sentenced to two years'
probation. College officials said Lee could be expelled from school.
Christmas comes early to LSU staff
Budget cutbacks in Louisiana brought Santa Claus out early
this year as economics and music professors at Louisiana State
University covered their staffs' pay cuts out of their own pockets.
Professors in the economics department raised $1,200 to distribute
among 21 staff members who took an across-the-board 2 percent
pay cut. The pay cuts were instituted to save the school $1 million,
said Loren Scott, who chairs the department.

Shuttle deploys secret military payload
Los Angeles Times
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER,
Fla. � The shuttle Discovery put the
mannedorbiter fleet's last major mili-
tary payload in space Wednesday,
opening the United States' eighth
and last manned space mission for
1992.
Because of Pentagon-imposed
secrecy, there was no report on ac-
tual deployment of the secret satel-
lite from the orbiter's cargo bay, but
an announcement from the National
Aeronautics and Space
Administration'sJohnsonSpaceCen-
ter said that the operation had taken
place on time and "exactly as
planned
Published plans called for As-
tronaut Guion S. Bluford, a 50-year-
old Air Force colonel, to release the
Department of Defense payload 200
miles above the far western Pacific 6
hours and 9 minutes after the vehicle
rose from its Florida launch pad.
Completion of the operation was not
announced for more than an hour,
however. When live broadcast of
spacecraftcommunications resumed,
Discovery's five-man crew was at
work deploying a communications
antenna in preparation for the re-
mainder of the seven-day mission.
Given its disclosed weight of
23,215 pounds and the northeasterly
heading of the launch, analysts have
speculated that the cargo listed as
DOD-1 was a Lacrosse all weather
spy satellite, or perhaps a high-alti-
tude sentry to monitor communica-
tions or rocket launches.
For security purposes, officials
not only stopped the broadcast of
communications with theastronauts
while they worked with the secret
payload, but eliminated the usual
television pictures from the control
room of Houston's manned space-
craft center. During the remainder of
the mission, there will be no pictures
showing thespacecraft'sempty cargo
bay, on grounds that conclusions
about the satellite could be drawn
from the structure that held it before
deployment.
Their prime Pentagon assign-
ment behind them, Discovery's five
astronauts turned to a host of scien-
tific and engineering tasks, includ-
ing work with 13 additional experi-
ments for the Department of De-
fense.
The flight had been scheduled
to lift off at sunrise, but officials de-
layed it for nearly an hour and a half
because ice formed at several places
on thevehicle'sl54-f(ot-rall fuel tank.
Although the air temperature at the
launch site got no lower than 48 de-
grees, high humidity and the chill
from the super cold liquid hydrogen
and liquid oxygen combined to cre-
ate frost and patches of ice on the
tank's surface.
Because ice might flake off the
tank and damage the orbiter's deli-
cate surface, NASA rules prohibit a
launch if there is any accumulation
of ice more than one-sixteenth of an
inch. The ice rule and other sharp
cold weather limitations were im-
posed after the January 1986 Chal-
lenger disaster when freezing tem-
peratures were implicated in the
shuttle's destruction.
It was Discovery's first flight
since last January. In the interim the
shuttle was extensively refurbished
and modified. It went through the
preparations forits 15th mission with-
out a hitch, and according to deputy
shuttle program manager Brewster
Shaw "arrived on orbit in great
shape
To deploy the military satellite
in the position required by the Penta-
gon, Wednesday's launch put Dis-
covery on a course that took itsharpry
northward. The angle, inclined 57
degrees from the Equator, means that
before it lands back in Florida next
Wednesday, the spacecraft swings
below the tip of the South American
continent and as far north as
Scandinavia, criss-crossing the en-
tire United States, except Alaska, in
the process.

Russia will
continue to
export arms
The Washington Post
Acting Prime
MOSCOW
Minister Yegor Gaidar, hoping
to win support from the mili-
tary-industrial sector for his em-
battled economic reforms, prom-
ised Wednesday that Russia will
continue exporting arms to
China, Iran, Syria and other
countries.
"Naturally we don't intend
to spark international conflicts
and deliver weapons to conflict
zones Gaidar told a crucial ses-
sion of Russia's Congress of
People's Deputies. "Butwehave
absolutely no grounds to leave
this most important market
He said Russia recently has
signed contracts worth about $1
billion with China, $650 million
with India and $600 million with
Iran. Russia delivered a subma-
rine to Iran last month despite
strong objections by Western na-
tions that the sale would ad-
versely affect the balance of
power in the Persian Gulf re-
gion.
Gaidar's speech, which of-
fered both a spirited defense of
his reforms and a frank acknowl-
edgment of many "mistakes
was greeted coldly by legisla-
tors, many of whom jeered as he
spoke.
The 1,041-member Con-
gress, elected in 1990 under the
old Soviet system, is dominated
by ex-Communists, many of
whom are determined to slow
Russia's move toward a free mar-
ket and possibly force Gaidar
and his reformist team from
power.
While some deputies said
Gaidar's speech had strength-
ened his position and that of his
patron, President Boris Yeltsin,
it was far from clear Wednesday
whether Gaidar could muster
enough votes to survive a pos-
sible test in the Congress.

You were in love and dating, the

You must learn to relate. Don't

SGA provides checks, balances to ECU
The Student Government Association has
once again shown a backbone in standing up
for students' rights on the ECU campus.
In late November, the SGA passed a reso-
lution denouncing the recent limitations placed
upon the campus radio station
WZMB. The administration at
ECU has placed a ban on WZMB
from broadcasting from any bar
or tavern downtown. They have
cited as their reasons the risk of
liability to the university as a
"deep pocket FCC violations
and ultimate responsibility of
social host events.
This narrow-minded ap-
proach to regulating organiza-
tions on campus desperately
needs to be re-examined and re-evaluated.
Other groups hold regular meetings on cam-
pus serving alcohol and also hold meetings at
bars downtown, such as Chico's. By not con-
demning this action, the university, in effect,
condones it and creates a double-standard.
The question arises as to whether the fact
that WZMB is a media-related organization
had any effect on the amount of restriction
placed upon them. Other organizations do not
have the same amount of view in the public eye
that WZMB has; therefore, the administration
would not hear of them as often as the radio
station.
Media, as a whole, are seen as a micro-
"When SGA
supports
something, it
signifies the
support of the
entire student
hody
Courtney Jones
SGA president
cosm of society- With its specialized knowl-
edge and wide public outreach, the media serve
as the information-getters for the rest of the
world. People watch TV, read the papers and
listen to the radio not only for entertainment,
but to hear what's going on
around them as well. Limit-
ing the media in their rights to
cover events hurts the public
on a greater level by infring-
ing on the right to freedom of
speech.
Along with this First
Amendment breach comes a
concept known as prior re-
straint. Prior restraint is an
unconstitutional practice
where the government re-
stricts action on the basis that it may, in the
future, create unrest. By imposing limitations
on the basis that future litigation may happen,
the administration is guilty of two major faults
against the public's most basic rights.
The SGA has given this university a set of
checks and balances that is most desperately
needed. SGA president Courtney Jones and the

Hillary Clinton to lead women into new era
Hillary Clinton, wife-
mother-lawyer. Soon to be First
Lady. Bill Clinton's right-hand
er woman. It was mentioned
many times during the campaign
that a vote for Bill Clinton would
also be a vote for Hillary. Basi-
cally, they come as a set. Hillary is
a strong-willed, incredibly intelli-
gent modern woman. A woman
who (gasp!) speaks her mind and
who juggles a career and a family
with seemingly effortless ease. In
other words, a feminist's dream.
Unfortunately, the word
"feminist"
conjures up
images of radical,
bra-burning
females. The term
"pro-woman"
may be more
appropriate in this
case. Hillary
Clinton is a light
in the ever dark-
ened tunnel of
equality. She rep-
resents hope in an
otherwise non-
representational
government. Let's
face it � with
women making
up more than half
of the entire human population,
our "fair" democratic government
leaves a lot to be desired when it
comes to equality.
The fact of the matter is, if
Hillary Clinton asserts leadership,
many people are going to be re-
sentful. If she doesn't exert it, a
large number of people will be
greatly disappointed. They (the
American people) apparently
want Hillary to be tough, but not
too tough; to speak her mind, but
at the same time, wear fancy
dresses and function as curator
for the White House.
It is my firm belief that
Hillary Clinton is too talented to
settle in as hostess and decorator.
Whata waste it would be forher to
disappear into the shadows be-
cause of pressure from the dull,
grey-suited Washington big-wigs.
I say let her be what she wants to
be. Let her shape the position of
First Lady (First Spouse?) into a
comfortable role as it suits her.
She's been, up to mis point, asser-
tive and successful at all she's ac-
complished.
It seems mat during the last
few months of the campaign she
was quieted because it was be-
lieved that she was "running the
show The result was a strategic
repositioning, reflected by Mrs.
Clinton's comparative silence and
her adoring gaze, which was paro-
died on Saturday Night Live. This
brought about some head-shak-
ing among admirers who won-
dered if respectability would break
her spirit. Doubtful. Bill Clinton
emerged from a meeting held
shortly after the election saying
that Hilary "knew more" than
most of the people in there. That
certainly is not the sign of a bro-
ken spirit. Incidentally, since a
casual reference to Mrs. Clinton's
potential as a Cabinet member
drew fire last spring, both she and
her husband have ruled out the
possibility. People don't seem to
be ready to handle upwardly-mo-
bile women. The question remains:
Then what do they want?
I, for one, being a woman,
don't want Hillary to turn into
fluff. Granted, the present job de-
scription of the
First Lady reads:
Help
Wanted: quiet,
unpretentious
woman to take
care of social
activities, throw
state-house
dinners, be the
eyes and ears of
husband. Must
wear tasteful,
attractive
clothing to
appease the hard-
nosed
conservative
public. Must not,
in any case, draw
unwanted attention to herself.
Feminists need not apply.
Hillary is the first profes-
sional to take on this role, the only
one who represents America in
the '90s. It's a whole new world
out there. Women have choices
for once. Even though little has
been gained in the fight for equal-
ity, some important strides have
been made.
I hope everyone leaves her
alone. If she can weather this last
fight, she might make a terrific
transition for a female President.

Truth over nationalism sought to end racism
(Editor's Note: This is the third
part in a three-part series.)
The intended message of
this series of articles is that we are
more alike than we are different,
that much of history is debatable
and everyone has ancestors who
did great things as well as bad
things, and that the present and
future are more important than
the past.
It should also be clear that
racism remains a problem. The 27
percent discrimination identified
by the Urban Institute study is
unacceptable. The higher rates of
crime, unemployment and poor
health care suffered by minori-
ties are problems with which ev-
eryone should be concerned. But
we, as a society, have too often
failed to seek solutions to these
problems together. Approaching
problems through things like cul-
tural awareness movements and
multi-cultural education sounds
great in theory, but in practice it
can create alienation and conflict.
The insane response to this by
more radical groups like the KKK
not only causes interracial con-
flict, it also creates conflict be-
tween persons of the same race.
If, as this writer believes,
the ultimate achievement for our
country is a colorblind society, it
seems logical that we tend to
thwart this goal by dividing our-
selves and emphasizing our dif-
ferences. We become less aware
of the good in other people, and it
practically becomes necessary to
seek out racism in order to justify
ourselves.
Interestingly, despite the
rise of separatist sentiment, there
is evidence that racism is declin-
ing in America � the result, not
of separatism, but of integration
and civil rights. Minorities have
made many gains. The highest
ranking military officer in the land
is black, and minorities have won
elective office in unprecedented
numbers � in some cases, in ju-
risdictions with lopsided white
voting majorities. Also, at the
same time that more blacks were
failing into povert), more were
also moving into the middle class.
Whites have experienced a simi-
lar economic shift. All of us, al-
though in different percentages,
suffer from social and economic
adversity. We can only beat these
problems if we work together.
In the end, it becomes an
individual choice. We mustaban-
EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK
don the comfort of "good-old-
boy" networks. We cannot con-
tent ourselves with a race-based
identity. We need to know that
most Americans want harmony,
and that when racism does rear
its hideous head, people of all
colors will join together to sub-
due it.
Perhaps a tool to support
this would be some sort of inte-
grated, diverse institution which
would endeavor to focus our mag-
nificent variety of ideas and per-
ceptions on our most pressing
problems. Call it the "American
Social and Cultural Institute
Staff it with representatives from
all walks of American life who
celebrate each other, who try to
identify real causes and solutions,
who seek truth over nationalism,
who set an example by demon-
strating "E Pluribus Unum
We must be critical of in-
flammatory propaganda. We
must be suspicious of amateur
editorialists who can err (I stand
convicted). Above all, we must
not divide ourselves and try to
work together from a distance.
Despite our best intentions, sepa-
ratism � by any name � cannot
be good for America.

Mediocrity is the
death of pride. If
you don't strive for
the best, you don't
find the best.
Education should be students' top priority
on and tell 'em what you think.
Hint: wear a tie. They'll listen to
you better. Even women � it
worked for Annie Hall.
Come on, you know the
drill. Petitions, boycotts, protests,
etc. Think Boston Tea Party. Hell,
think Boston marathon first so
you'll get there quicker.
Mediocrity is the death of
pride. If you don't strive for the
best, you don't find the best. But
you have to recognize what an
appropriate goal is. Today, that
means a job. Money in the pocket
and bread on the table. That's
why you're here at college.
You think you need a class
schedule to get drunk three days
a week? You think you need
homework as inspiration for the
chug of your life? U, the College
Magazine ran a study saying if
you have more than 10 drinks a
week, chances are you won't
pass. There goes the school, the
job, the money and there goes
the ale, your raison d'etre. Better
to sober up, graduate, get the job
you majored for and then drink
like a fish if you want. Buthave
your priorities straight or the
only gold you'll see is on the
arches on the sign where you
work.
You get two days a week to
live as you wish, three if you
count Friday night, which you
should. There's the break you
need � three days out of seven
to do with what you will. The
other four days, hunker down
and push the pencil. In four years,
you get a paper from this fine
state and a head start over
Goober at the gas station.
At this, the end of 1992, it
falls on those of us who have
little else to do to try to foresee
how the year will be remem-
bered. Between the riots and the
rhetoric, America was caught in
a lion's den of frustration and
response. The lesson of cause and
effect was retaught to those who
might have for-
gotten it not so
much for what
action results in
but inaction can
herald as well.
The media did a
fine job (thank
you, you're too
kind) showing
the country the concrete and ab-
stract responses of those who
were forgotten and those better
off forgotten.
So we have a new epoch on
our hands. Not simply because
of Clinton's election, come on,
he's not the Second Coming
(wait, maybe that should be used
for Perot). We, as a country and
individuals, have been made
aware of our environs no matter
how far the boundary extends.
We are set to try anew with in-
volvement, instruction and hope-
fully, infallibility. We no longer
have a physical enemy to con-
front as a whole, a stagnant and
failing political policy in control
nor the luxury of claiming igno-
rance or a lack of opinion on any
pressing issue. One way or an-
other, this nation has been given
a challenge to straighten up and
get its act together. We must de-
cide now just how to go about it.
Either by responding to a
feared outcome or by being de-
termined to enact a different
agenda, we took a stand and said
something. Whether the riots in
L.A. enraged you or scared you,
at least you reacted. If the elec-
tion made you want to throw the
bums out or keep the weirdos
out, you wanted something. While
we have the
momentum of
response, we
must use it to
fix the mess of
a society we
are all in. Ef-
fort must be
made. The late
'80s were
bogged by "well, what can you
do?" feelings; apathy and indif-
ference, mixed with inertia. Now,
blame the media, blame the gov-
ernment, whatever, but energy
has built up because of irritation
with the status quo and the de-
cay of the economy. But now the
economy is up, government is in
place and the new year is in the
on-deck circle. Let's get to work.
You think a law is unfair?
Change it. We've been a democ-
racy for a couple of hundred
years now and that means we all
have a say, but you have to turn
off Regis and get out of the dorm
room and do something. Getting
hacked off and then drinking
until you pee in your backpack
doesn't get the laundry done.
Think an ECU policy stinks to
high heaven? Say so. No, not to
your roommate, no to me, to the
SGA and the administration.
They get paid or get snazzy titles
just to hear what you think. Go

Somalia so disrupted by clans that
restoring stability may be impossible
Washington Post
WASHINGTON � With at
least 11 separate clan groups laying
claim to a country almost the size of
Texas, Somalia has disintegrated to
thepointthatrestoringstablegovem-
ment may not even be possible, ac-
cording to U.S. intelligence officials.
Indeed, the situation is so cha-
otic that outside of the former capi-
tal of Mogadishu, it is difficult even
to keep track of which clan is in
charge of which region on which
day, said a Pentagon official with
access to classified intelligence re-
ports. Alliances rupture and reform;
sub-clans split from one group and
cut deals with another.
"They're just constantly in
flux the official said Wednesday.
"Frequently some of the sub-
clans make alliances that can be
opposed to their parent clan .It's
so fragmented
The bleak intelligence assess-
ment comes as the United Nations
prepares to vote on a U.S. offer to
supply troops to protect relief work-
ers who so far have been stymied in
efforts to deliver food to starving
Somalis. Bush administration offi-
cials have said the troops would
remain there only a few months,
but the lack of any political center
of gravity in Somalia raises ques-
tions about whether order can be
restored before they leave.
Among the groups laying
claim to various regions are the
Somali National Movement, the So-
mali Patriotic Movement, the So-
mali Democratic Movement, the
Somali Democratic Alliance, the

United Somali Frontand the United
Somali Party, to name a few.
Mogadishu, the capital, had
been controlled by the United So-
mali Congress, otherwise known
as the Hawiya clan, after the col-
lapse of the country's central gov-
ernment last year. But the two key
leaders of that group, Gen.
Mohamed Farah
Aideed and Ali Mahdi
Mohamed, had a falling out. Now
Aideed controls the southern part
of the city and Mahdi lays claim to
the northern suburbs, though each
has retained the party tide.
The Pentagon official said that
although clan leaders may profess
a commitment to nation-building
or democratic principles, in fact they
are interested only in amassing
weapons and food the two key
elements of power in famine-
wracked Somalia.
Complicating the picture, the
official said, are large quantities of
small arms leftover from Somalia's
splintered army, many of them in
the hands of teenagers who make
their living stealing food or run-
ning protection rackets for relief
groups. The official noted that most
ofSomalia'sgunmenchew khat,
a leaf grown in Ethiopia that pro-
duces an amphetamine-like high.
The official said that in
Mogadishu, where shooting inci-
dents now occur about 100 times a
day, the level of violence appears to
rise after 2 p.m when Somalis typi-
cally stop whatever they are doing
and take a khat break.
The utter collapse of civil and
moral authority in Somalia is all the
more perplexing because it has oc-
curred in a country with none of the
ethnic or tribal divisions thatplague
other sub-Saharan nations. Somalis
are nomadic people who live as
farmers and herdsmen and they
share the same physical characteris-
tics, language, religion (Sunni Mus-
lim) and cultural traditions.

Lee's 'Malcolm X'
named work of art
By Ike Shibley
Staff Writer
Malcolm X could be the most important
film released this year.
Spike Lee hascrafteda superbly articu-
late statement about Malcolm X and about
racism.
Lee has toned down his own racial
views and blunt, yetsprawling, style to tell
a uniquely focused, moving saga of one of
the most influential black leaders in Ameri-
can history.
Denzel Washington, the man whose
previous acting work has included Glory
and Mo' Better Blues (also directed by Spike
Lee), had given hints that he had potential
for a performance like Malcolm X in his
future. The raw power he brings to the role
solidifies the film. His portrayal could be
argued to be as important a contribution to
the film as Lee's direction.
Of course, Lee did much more than
direct the film, therefore Malcolm X is his
film. In addition to directing the movie, he
produced it with Marvin Worth. He also
plays a major supporting cast member,
Short who befriends Malcolminhisyouth
and adds a certain amount of humor to the
film.
Though many of Lee's statements and
actions concerning Malcolm X have been
viewed as brash, no one can deny the con-
viction that he has shown.
Lee tirelessly promoted this film from
its inception twoyearsago. He boldly stated
that black Americans needed to see this
film or else something of this magnitude
may never be completed again.
He fought to make exactly the picture
he wanted. He elicited financial aid from
black performers such as Bill Cosby and
Michael Jordan when Warner Brothers (the
company releasing the film) hesitated with
financial support. He claims that, barring
only a few alterations, he got the monev he
needed to make the film he wanted to ma ke.
One of the comparisons made was to
not shoot the climactic finale in the original
Audobon ballroom. The renovation costs
were too prohibitive.
Lee deserves immense credit for not
allowing even minor setbacks like this to
dampen the film's spirits. None of the com-
parisons are evident on screen.
Malcolm X, in addition to telling a re-
markable story, looks magnificent. Theearly
scenes in Harlem, when Malcolm is a small-
timehustler,explodewithcolor.Thestreets
look remarkably realistic. Malcolm X's pil-
grimage to Mecca was shot on location in
Egypt, which complements the film's real-
ism.
ThecomplexityofMalcolmX,theman,
is evidenced by the fact that a three hour, 21
minute film does not do him justice. Lee
hopes the film will serve as an introduction
to Malcolm X and will lead to a more thor-
ough exploration by those who see the
movie.
Malcolm X was bom Malcolm Little in
Omaha, Neb in 1925.
Early in his life he began to learn about
prejudice when, at age 11, a teacher told
him that Malcolm's aspirations to a be a
lawyer were unrealistic. His teacher sug-
gested carpentry. "Jesus was a carpenter
the teacher said somewhat encouragingly.
Malcolm served six and a half years in
prison for robbery. While there he took the
surname X, signifying the rejection of a
"white man's slave name" and his "un-
known" African identity destroyed by sla-
very.
In prison, Malcolm Xeducated himself
so that when he emerged from his cell he
was a learned spokesperson for his new
religion, the Nation of Islam. Eventually,
after a pilgrimage to Mecca, Malcolm X
welcomed white people into his vision of a
better future for mankind.
In 1965, the intelligent, articulate voice
of Malcolm X was forever silenced by gun-
men at the Audobon Ballroom in New

Malcolm X (Denzel Washington) addresses the huge crowd assembled at a
gathering of the Nation of Islam in "Malcolm X Spike Lee's latest film triumph.
York.
Spike Lee has ensured that Malcolm
X's voice will be heard for generations.
This deeply moving, extremely well-
crafted f il m is certainly one of the best of the
year.
Lee has taken a life and crafted it into a
work ofart while still maintaining a strong
historical foothold.
He has managed to convey the love
he feels for Malcolm X while still pre-
senting Malcolm X as a man rather than
an idealized, superhuman icon.
Lee has created his best film.
Malcolm X is a truly magnificent
work of art.

start on their Christmas shoppjng or for
those that just want to purchase a hand-
crafted item for their own use, Thursday,
Dec. 3, and Friday, Dec. 4, will be the perfect
time. From 8 a.m. until 6 p.m the School of
Art will be holding their annual Christmas
Sale in the Wellington B. Gray Art Gallery.
All of the items that will be sold are

dents. Included in the sale will be pottery,
silk scarfs, kaleidoscopes and hand-made
Christmas cards. Also featured are metal
works, jewlery, prints and weaved rugs.
The prices of the crafts are quite reason-
able, ranging from $1 to $100. The student
pays for the materials used and makes the
craft on his or her own time. The price of the
craft goes to a worthy cause � the student
who created it.
The students belong to guilds in the
School of Art and these guilds have payed
for all of the promotions for the sale. The
guilds that have participated are: Ceramics,
Printing, Craftsman East, Metals Textiles
and Wood, Art td ucation and Design Asso-
ciates. A portion of the profit goes to the
guilds.
Three art students, in the Craftsman
East guild, have co-ordinated the sale and
have been responsible for the advertising of
the Christmas sale. Bess Andrews, Jamie
Lanier and Alice Swart have been working
hard for the art students and expect a big
turnout for the sale. They expect ECU stu-
dents as well as individuals from the com-
munity to attend the sale.
The Gallery will hold a reception and
sale Thursday night for art enthusiasts. For
more information call the School of Art at
757-6336.
This is the biggest sale that the School of
Art will hold this year and is a great oppor-
tunity to find a unique gift that is more than
worth the price.

Christmas gift arrives

In an ever-increasing sea of trendy
Chili Peppers-style funk bands and
grungy Nirvana wanna-bees, it's refresh-
ing to hear a group with their own unique
style.
Dear Dead Delila is emerging as
Greenville's alternative to a nationally
stagnating college music scene that seems
to be increasingly based on repitition and
less on originality.
The group's new album, Erosion, con-
tains 15 songs that, as a whole, simply
defy categorization. This is no "get down
and party" record, but the album drips
from start to finish with catchy hooks and
punk-rock energy.
"We wanted to be able to move flu-
idly between songs that are really heavy
and those that have more of an acoustic
feel said ECU senior Joey Lawler,
Delila's guitar player. "I rarely see bands
that play something so incredibly heavy
one second, then sound like the Connells
the next
Dear Dead Delila formed in the sum-
mer of 1990 as a hard-core punk band.
"We released this four track tape that
was really horrible said Lawler. "Every-
thing was out of tune and all the songs were
about ridicu lous topics. But it was punk rock,
so who cares?"
As the
band began
playingout,
they rede-
fined their
sound and
started
working
more on
song writ-
ing.
The
band's new,
full-length
cassette clocks in at over 40 minutes and the
production is exceptionally good for local
demo. None of the songs are over four min-
utes, but each is filled with enough catchy
hooks to give a college radio listener wet
dreams.
The tape opens up with "Kickdirt a
crunchy, Helmet-style number, then moves
into the beautiful "Amethyst a song that has
you tapping your feet one second then banging
your head the next.
"Under the Ocean" and "Forp" are jangly-
pop love songs, while "Christine's Dream" and
"Condom Nation" are full-out thrashers that
will peel the
paint off your
walls.

bass lines re-
mind me of the
Cure, which is
pretty weird
considering
the intensity of
the rest of the
music. The
record's lyrical content remains mostly per-
sonal, rarely delving into the tired arena of
political and social injustice.
"I know that a lot of bands like us use a
political theme for their lyrics, but we're really
not into it said Lawler. "Most of these people

Tonight, the ECU playhouse
will celebrate the Christmas sea-
son with the opening perfor-
mance of "Amahl and the Night

touching musi-
cal by Gian
Carlo Menotti.
"Amahl" is
the story of a
crippled shep-
herd boy who is
visited by the
Three Magi on
their way to
honor the birth
of the
Christchild in
Bethlehem.
Amahl receives
the first miracle
byChrist,culmi-
natingoneofthe
most touching
musical theater
pieces to ever
grace the stage.
The three
wise men will be
played by indi-
viduals from the
music depart-
ment at ECU:
Darryl Taylor,
Jay Pierson and
H'DaleSmith.In
order to over-
come possible
problems with
the part of
Amahl, both Kevin Driver and
Nathan Maxwell will trade off
playing the part.
Amahl's mother will be
played by Edyth lsaacson-
Wagstaff,replai ig Donna Dease.
Dease, an associate professor in
the School of Music, passed away
recently in her sleep.
"Amahl and the Night Visi-
tors" could be known best for its
musical score. Simple and clear
tunes dominate this production,
almost guaranteeing that the au-
dience will enjoy the spectacular.
"Amahl" has
been consid-
ered one of the
most popular
modern op-
eras; more than
400 live perfor-
mances annu-
ally have been
performed and
recordings and
video tapes
continue to sell.
"Amahl
and the Night
Visitors" opens
tonight and
will run
through Dec. 8.

mances on Dec.
3, 4, 5, 7 and 8
will draw the

Lead by singer and songwriter
DavePimer,SouJAsylumcreates intel-
ligent rock that refuses to sacrifice the
musical kick that all successful punk
needs. Their latest album, Gnwe Danc-
ers' Union, currently sits on top of the
alternative music charts. One reason
for this success may be the band's blis-
tering live performances. One such
performance was put on at the Caf s
Cradle in Ohapel Hill on Nov. 23.
In what would seem to be a con-
trast to Soul Asylum's grunge, the
Lemonheads opened the show. On
record, the Lemonheads have a slick
sound, an over-produced sheen that
masks the impact of their music. Their
smooth surface, however, dissolved in

over and over to an audience that
probably agrees with them any-
way. We thought that it would be
pretty much be a waste of time
singing about racism or inequal-
ity or anything, simply because
so many other bands already do
it. We have one song about ani-
mal rights and not eating meat,
but I don't feel like that topic is as
worn out as some of the others
As for the future, the band's
plans remain vague.
"It's still nothing we're tak-
ing too seriously says ECU
graduate Danny Sparrow, the
band's drummer. "I mean, none
of us want to be rock stars or
anything. We're not looking for
any sort of record deal. It's just
sort of fun to play and put records
out by ourselves
All in all, Erosion packs a pow-
erful punch from start to finish. If
you like it heavy and crunching,

there.

mal from the one before Sumner
said.
In summing up the band's ap-
peal,Sumner attributed ittotheband's
diversesonglistand its lack of political
activism while performing.
"We don't preach anything, we
don't adopt any political views, we're
not gonna tell you how to live your
life Sumner said. "We're just gonna
help you drink your beer
When asked about future tape or
CD releases, the band said thatitprob-
abry wouldn't happen until another
year or so, in order to become better
and closer as a band.
"I feel like a band rtally needs to
mature and come together and learn
about each other and then put out
original material Sumner said.
Futureplansfbrtheband include
the addition of afifth member in Janu-
ary and more concert dates in the
region. Mother Nature will play at the
New Deli Friday night
Benefitting the most from this treat-
ment was "Homesick a song that,
although it benefits from a few nice
ryrical turns, sounds a bit sappy. Live,
when Pimer croons the openingline
want to live wi th you in the fifth dimen-
sion in a dream I never had the an-
guish and longing came through. The
one song that the live treatment didn't
help was "Runaway Train which is
quite possibly the worst song of Soul
Asylum's career.
Older material was pulled out and
dusted off as welL "Gullible's Travels"
and "Brand New Shine both from
1990, were torn through to a warm
reception. "Cartoon from 1988's Hong
Tzme album, received thebestresponse.
Good as the show was, though, I
found myself longing for the true punk
grunge of the band's earliest work. I
missed the bone-crushing insanity of
'Take it to the Root and I kept yelling
"Ouch to get them to play "Broken
Glass
They may not serve up punkquite
the way they used to, but Soul Asylum
still has a bt of power.

Assistant Sports Editor
Lester Lyons' steal 11 seconds into
the game and resulting monster-dunk
made it appear the Pirates would come
out blazing in their first game of the
season. However, poor first half execu-
tion and suspect inside play plagued
East Carolina Tuesday night, in its 65-48
victory against St. Andrews.
The Pirates started strong, with
guard Lester Lyons and forward Wilbert
Hunter leading a 17-6 run that forced
Knight coach Ron Lievense to call a
time-out. Lievense's team came back
strong with six unanswered points, in-
cluding a three-pointer by Knight guard
John Church. At halftime the Pirates
were nursing a seven-point lead as the
Knights had battled back to a 21-14 defi-
cit.
Both offenses started the second half
strong, but a Hunter three-pointer and a
Ronnell Peterson layup off a steal put
the game in the Pirates favor at 29-16 at
17:17 in the half. But once again, after a
St. Andrews timeout, the Knights made
the game competitive with the play of
forward Cedric Brown. After leading by
as much as 11, the Pirates now found
themselves ahead by only six. But, after
Head Coach Eddie Payne called a time-
out, they began an offensive assault of
their own.
The Pirates, frustrated by the
Knights' interior defense, struck from
the perimeter with Lyons hitting four
three-pointers in the second half. With
the penetration of freshman guard "Ice"
Kareem Richardson drawing Knight de-
fenders, the Pirates were given many
open shots from the outside, as they
pummeled the Knights in the final min-
utes of the game. Lyons' last-second
three pointer sealed a Pirate victory that
brought little in the way of confidence
from Payne.
"We didn't play well Payne said.
"We were offensively out of sync and
failed to execute. You can't beat good
teams like that
Next Tuesday the Pirates must meet
UNC-Charlotte, a potential top 25 team.

In the dictionary, a sport is de-
fined as any activity which expends
physical exertion for recreational
purposes.
This interpretation is very
sound, but slightly out-dated. For
this to be taken literally, profes-
sional athletes are not playing a
sport. They are not performing
for recreational purposes, they
are doing a job for financial pur
poses.
Possibly a more accurate definition
today would be: A sport is any game
which exerts physical energy or puts the
body in physical danger.
The obvious sports such as basket-
ball, football and hockey meet both these
requirements. They require physical ex-
ertion and put the body in danger.
Other activities which are a little
more questionable fill only one of these
requirements. For example, auto racing
does not require incredible physical ex-
ertion, just physical endurance. But, the
sport does leave the body vulnerable to
serious physical danger.
Then there are games which are
generally considered sports but
should not be. Games like golf,
1JC P��'anc bowing-
lfok These games have nothing
to do with the physical exer-
tion of energy. They deal with
skills, and techniques. And they
definitely don't put the body in
pnysical danger.
There is a difference between sport
and games. Any recreational activity can
be considered a game, but physical re-
quirements are necessary for it to be
categorized as a sport. Tic-Tac-Toe will
never be an Olympic event.

1992 ECU football ABCs:

D is for Davis. Tony will be one of the
ratkii'sbestlinebackersifhecanstayfocused.
Robert Jones who? Davis is blazing his own
trails�toward the opposition
E is for Exception The only game we
should nothavelostwasagainstDuke. Itwas
the only exception allowable for this season.
The 1992 Pirates were no better than 7-4 or 6-
5,butshouldnothavfinishedtheseasonwith
a losing record. Or should E stand for ESPN
(the station that will never put us on the air
again).
F is for the defense. They have Flunked

Arkansas State, who scored 18 points. The

I is for 'In the dog house That is where
The East Carolinian may be after the athletic
department reads this.
J - Dog (Jerry Dillon) did not have the
opportunity to showcase his talent at defen-
sive end as he was hampered by a broken
thumb nearly the whole season. He will be
missed next year.
K is for Kicking. It is surprising Head
Coach Steve Logan did not try to find a few
soccer players to put the pigskin through the

ing as we did in'92.

Pittsburgh Steelers getting help from a higher source
Los Angeles Times column
St. Peter'sChurch in Pittsburgh, proximate to Three
Rivers Stadium, offers its parking lot (and a Mass) to
Steelers fans heading to the game. It must be having
someeffect because theplace is packed and the team has
won five straight at home.
One might question why ex-Navy great Joe Bellino
is being inducted into the Orange Bowl Hall of Honor in
a big ceremony in Miami at the end of the month. While
the recently retired Navy reserve captain was brilliant
and won the Heisman Trophy as a Mid, he was held to
just 4 yards in eight carries while losing to Missouri 21-
14, in the 1961 game.
So far, at least, Shaquille O'Neal is doing a good job
for the NBA, speaking from a television perspective. His
Orlando Magic gameson TNT are matching the ratings
the Celtics were accustomed to getting with Larry Bird.
Considering Manon Rheaume was inducted into
the Women's Sports Hall of Fame last week, what
happens if the aspiring hockey goaltender ever climbs
above third string for the minor-league Atlanta Knights?
Football lost one of its most solid citizens last week
when Pete McCulley passed onduetoan apparentheart
attack.PetewasatirelessworkerasanassistantatNavy
and with the Baltimore Colts. He didn't appear quite
ready for the head coaching job when he was thrust into
the position by Joe Thomaswith the SanFrancisco49ers.
He maintained a home in Annapolis, Md for about 30
years and son Kit, a defensive back, was an Academy
grad.
I don't know about you, but I sort of enjoyed David
Klingler catching his lumps (10 sacks) during
Cincinnati's 21-9 crunching by the Steelers Sunday.
Recall some of the things Dave and Houston did to
some of their opponents while in college: 95 points
against SMU, seven touchdowns and 750 yards pass-
ing vs. Eastern Washington.
Chances are, the best fight on the HBO card out of
Atlantic City (Taj Mahal) Saturday will be Percy Harris
(15-3) testingformer Olympian Roy Jones (19-0) Jones is
all but conceded a world title soon, but classy Harris is
not just an "opponent" on the way up. Iran Barkley (29-
7) vs. Robert Folley (22-5) and James Toney (32-0) vs.
Doug DeWitt (33-7) head the show.

Bay area reminds one of the Memorial Stadium
situation in Baltimore years ago. Whenever the Colts or
Orioles would work themselves a sweetheart deal, the
other would be hollering bloody murder for similar
treatment. Same with the 49ers at present.
When the players broke off from the tennis estab-

stalf must address. Opponents field po-
sition was ridiculously ck�e to the end
zone. Special teams(the punting unit to
be specific) must shoulder some re-
sponsibility for the lack of defense this
season. It is hard to shut down an of-
fense when the only need togo40 or 50
yards fbrascore. However, thedefense
often seemed confused, almost as if
they were thinking of something other
than football. They must become more
focused and come together as a unit If
