Construction for the Recreation Center will require extensive ground work that
will detour drivers away from Cotanche Street beginning Feb. 7.
Staff Writer
Cotanche Street will be
closed on Feb. 7 from 10th
Street to Reade Circle, in order
to allow Kipco Contracting to
install water and sewer lines
for the new student Recreation
Center.
The placement of the wa-
ter line under Ninth Street and
the sewer line under Eighth
Street marks the beginning of
the f;rst phase of the 22 month
project. The 16,000 to 18,000
cars that cross Cotanche daily
will be rerouted one block to
Evans Street.
"The work will take about
two weeks, depending on the
weather said Kipco Contrac-
tor Craig Walton. This sched-
ule would have Cotanche Street
open again by Feb. 21.

the construction as growth and
opportunity. This may be a

The ECU Department of
University Housing has made
another effort to upgrade on-cam-
pus housing. Beginning in the fall
of 1994, White Hall will become a
co-ed residence hall with single-
occupancy rooms.
"We are trying to create
more living options within our
system ? including non-smok-
ing floors, quiet floors and honors
dormitories said Dr. Carla Jones,
director of resident education.
Many current White Hall
residents questioned why the larg-
est rooms on campus will be con-
verted to single rooms when
smaller rooms, such as those in
Gotten and Jarvis Halls, would be
more suitable for such an alter-
ation.
According to Jones, the de-
cision to convert White Hall was
based on the university's desire to
renovate a high-rise residence hall
on that particular end of campus.
Clement Hall was also under con-
sideration.
"I don't think the single
rooms will be worth the effort and
time that is being put into it said
ished product will be some-
thing to be proud of said Rec-
reational Services Director
Nancy Mize.
Loal traffic will be per-
mitted on Cotanche Street be-
tween Reade Circle and Sev-
enth Street, to allow access to
Ringgold Towers.
Ninth Street will be acces-
sible through Charles and
Lawrence Streets. The parking
lots behind Joyner Library will
remain open through the con-
struction process, although
part of Ninth Street will even-
tually be closed
Later in February, access
to Seventh Street may be re-
stricted for a few days, but
Walton said Ringgold Towers
will remain accessible.
"It's just going to make it
inconvenient for a couple of
weeks said Ringgold man-
ager Holly Simonowich. She
said students will probably

Street entrance.

The new rooms will be avail-
able only to upper-classpersons;
no first-year students will be al-
lowed to live in the renovated
residence halls. The rooms will
cost the standard rate for single
rooms, which is the regular rate
plus one-half of that rate.

Give blood, please.
That has been the simple
motto of the American Red Cross
for years, but this time the orga-
nization is in dire need of blood.
Because the Mid-Atlantic Region

in seven years, emergency blood
drives have been scheduled for
ECU today and tomorrow.
"Whenyougiveblood,you

improving the quality of life
among the sick and injured in the
community Monroe said.
The Blood Mobile will be
set up in Mendenhall Student
Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on
Thursday and Friday of this
week. All blood types are needed.
To give blood, you must be 17
years old or older, weigh at least
110 pounds and be in good heal th.
"If you're notsureyou meet
the requirements, come on out
and let the nurse there make that

roe, coordinator of the blood
drive.
Normally the Red Cross
needs about 2,000 units of blood
in reserve for the month. Cur-
rently, they have approximately
800 units and need to obtain 1,200
units by the end of the month?

Many of today's students
and faculty recognize the tri-
column, or archway, as ECU's
symbol of excellence. Alumni
from years past and graduates
of the future will know a differ-
ent symbol.
A cupola that stood above
the old Austin building, ECU's
first instructional facility, will
begin reconstruction in 1995.
The cupola is a dome-shaped
object. The construction will be
twice the size of the former cu-
pola. Builders will use the origi-
nal plans, which have been pre-
served in Joyner library.
"The building came down
in the late '60s, but during the
time since then that replica has
returned on many things ? on
covers of books and maga-
zines said Jim Lanier, vice
chancellor of academic affairs.
"The new cupola most as-
suredly will become a new sym-
bol for ECUit is already a sym-
bol that is well recognized by
people who were here many
years ago said ECU Chancel-
lor Richard Eakin.
The reconstruction will
cost an estimated $250,000,
made possible through the
Shared Visions fund raiser,
Lanier said. Brochures have
been printed, campaigns are
being launched and a video is
in production to let alumni in
on this once-in-a-lifetime
chance. With a $250 or more
donation, alumni may have a
brick in the cupola inscribed
with their name, the name of a
loved one or favorite faculty
membe Donations of $1,000 or
more will receive a different
type of brick.
"We are letting individu-
als put bricks into the bottom of
it because there are a lot of
people who remember the cu-
pola and would like to be a part
of it Lanier said.
The cupola's dimensions
will be 48 feet high and 20 feet
in diameter. The area will
have an amphitheater concept
with three or four steps lead-
ing to the center.
"If we wanted to have a
small band, entertainment or
somebody giving a speech in
there that could happen
Lanier said.
The construction site-
will be in a triangular area
from Mendenhall Student
Center and the new recreation
center behind Greene Resi-
dence Hall. Construction will

The Dallas Cowboys and the

The Scott Council and resi-

people are expected to attend, said
Scott Hall Coordinator Kenny

The menu will consist of hot

logo on the front and a Super Bowl
theme on the back, will be raffled

the part about a cigarette tax in-

Rep. Martin Lancaster, D-
N.C said the message about
fighting crime in America hit the
right note.
"With his emphasis on
greater punishment and his en-
dorsement of the 'three strikes
and you're out' concept, which I
have cosponsored, 1 have real
hope that it will be enacted into

Clinton promised in his
State of the Union address Tues-
day night to veto any health care
legislation that does not provide
every American private health in-
surance that can never be taken
away.
Clinton has said he is will-
ing to compromise on other de-
tails, which include helping fi-
nance the plan with a hike in the
federal tax on cigarettes.
U.S. Rep. Tim Valentine, D-
N.C said he liked the agenda
that Clinton laid out in his speech,
but that he will continue to op-
pose any health care reform plan
that unfairly treats tobacco and
the state of North Carolina.
"It is my hope that we can
turn the administration away
from an unfair tobacco tax to-
ward a more sensible financing
plan he said.
Clinton's health plan would
require all employers to pay 80
percent of average health care pre-
miums for their workers. Low-
wage worker ; and small busi-
nesses would get federal subsi-
dies to help pay their share. Com-
panies and individuals would
purchase their insurance from big
regional alliances that could not

and should be completed by
spring of '96, said Lanier. Bricks
cannot be added to the cupola
after this time, but may be added
to walkways around the plaza.
Two families have com-
pletely funded the reconstruction
project. Brick money will be used
for scholarships. ECU'S alumni

ships per year. The scholarship
amounts vary from $1,500 to
$5,000 and are merit based.
The construction is planned
to be dedicated as the old Austin
Cupola. The Austin building was
the first structure at ECU. The "old
main" Austin building was con-
demned in 1968 due to wear and
tear. The Jenkin's art building now
stands in Austin's place. East Caro-
lina University: The Formative Years,
a book distributed throughout
campus, describes the destruction
of Austin as, "a wrenching sight
as though the heart of the campus
had been cut out
"The original cupola was
going to be preserved, but it
crumbled as it was coming off
Lanier said.
The new cupola will be con-
structed using the exact same plans
and kinds of materials from the
original, Lanier said.

Clinton's State of the Union packs a punch 1
"Our work has just begun
With these words, PresidentClinton laid out
a spirited plan for his second year. Amidst the
usual applause that politicians are so good at
supplying (especially during televised speeches
and debates), William Jefferson Clinton mapped
out his goals for the next year. (A side note: It was
more than refreshing to watch the Republicans sit
defiantly during Clinton's speech with their arms
crossed, as if they were children in elementary
school, forced to listen to a lecture on dress-code
violations.)
The plans outlined in the State of the Union
included the much-debated health care system
that Clinton stressed must guarantee coverage for
all, along with welfare reform and a response to
the public's concern about violent crime.
In the 64-minute speech, Clinton emerged
the victor, mainly because his words were not
"Democratic" in nature, or "Republican" for that
matter. He took a rather conservative view in an
attempt to sway members of Congress to his side.
This is not to say that they will follow his lead
blindly. TheonestipulanonClintonhasnotbacked
down from with the health care plan is the
insistance for guaranteed coverageforeyenAmen-
can. And this one particular plea may just be the
molasses that will slow him.
The argument has been offered that most
Americans already have coverage, so it's not an
urgent concern. Well, sorry, but to say that 38.5
million people do not deserve coverage because
they aren't the rhajority is like saying that African-
Americans don't deserve fair representation in
government; that Asian-Americans don't deserve
therightto vote, orthatMexican- Americans should
be barred from jobs because of their national
heritage. Screw those less fortunate than "us
The fact is that college graduates are part of
this no-health coverage-group. We compromise a
large chunk of the 38.5 million uninsured. We are at
a major disadvantage. So, how do any of us know
what lies ahead in our medical future? What hap-
pens if we are seriously injured and hospitalized at
the age of, oh let's say, 23, with a job that pays
nothing and no health plan? How indignant would
we be then, stuck with unbelievable medical bills
and no way out? Now think of the future post
Clinton health care plan. True, cigarette prices
would be slightly higher, but those Americans
withoutthemeans that decided whether they could
afford coverage wouldn't have to take a gamble in
the game we call insurance.
Clinton, in an act of sheer, strong motiva tion,
has threatened to veto any bill that doesn't provide
the coverage. What the White House has offered to
counterbalance is a willingness to expand the num-
ber of companies that would be permitted to self-
insure rather than join huge region ll alliances.
Since many companies feel that the threshold for
joining regional alliances is too high, this may aide
the popularity of theplanwhenitis finally voted on.
This reform plan may just define his legacy.
And for all its breadth, Clinton's speech did one
thing ? it provided a clear direction of where he
wants to go. He believes in what he's doing. That
was evident in his eyes and the inflections in his
voice (however hoarseitwas). Apure moment was
reached when he said the following: "Our prob-
lems go waybeyond die reachof government. They
are rooted in the loss of values The American
peoplehavegot to wantto change from within if we
are going to bring back work, family and commu-
nity
A little compassion for fellow man wouldn't
hurt, either.

Guitarist Django described as a great virtuoso

ing to some

denly you hear

though? You'll never convince

Speaking of The Who, if
Pete Townsend's guitar work
on "Pictures of Lily" is not one
of the most defining moments
of rock 'n' roll guitar ever re-
corded, then I need to move to
a room with some padded
walls. However, we could go
on like this forever.
For every different mo-
ment or trend in rock 'n' roll
we could find a "greatest" gui-
tarist I ho defined the moment.
People like D. Boon, Will
Sargent, Steve Wynn, Stevie
Ray Vaughn, Paul Weller or Jim
and William Reid (especially
on "In A Hole and "Kill Surf
City"). My point is the list could
go on for quite a while.
In fact, why should we
limit our list to just rock 'n' roll
guitarist?
AH genres have their all-
time greats Jazz has such fa-
mous artist as Lonnie Johnson,
Charlie Christian and Grant
Green.
How could we not include
on our list such great blues gui-
tarist as Robert Johnson, Muddy
Waters or B.B. King?

know a
great deal
about
country
music, but
I know
C h e t
Atkins is
an incred-
ible guitar-
ist.
If I knew anything about
classical music I'm sure our list
would continue to expand.
So here we are, back to
square one: Who is the greatest
guitarist of all-time? Of course,
this is a question which can only
really be answered on an indi-
vidual basis.
For me, though, I know
who the greatest guitar player
who ever lived is.
He was born on Jan. 23,
1910 in Belgium to a family of
nomadic gypsies and died in
Paris on May 16, 1954. In be-
tween, Django Reinhardt de-
fined the guitar with his daz-
zling virtuoso.
Not merely a speed demon
on the fretboard (although, I've
never heard anyone faster),
Django (pronounced jane-go)
had an impeccable ear for
melody.
What made Django unique
though was not merely the fact
that he was a great guitarist. We
have already seen that great gui-
tarist are a dime a dozen. What
made Django Reinhardt unique
was the fact that his left hand
(fretboard hand) was severely
burned when he was 18. His
pinky and ring finger were in
fact paralyzed.
Django only played with
two fingers.
Initially devastated by the
thought that his career as a mu-
sician was over at the age of 18,
Django, over the course of the
next year, invented his own
method of guitar fingering. This
tremendous technique has gone
unsurpassed to this day.
Django cannot be written
off just as master technician,
though. He played with an ex-
pressive quality that went be-
yond any sort of temporal soul-
fulness.
Dukt Ellington may have
expressed it best when he said,
"Django is all artist, unable to
play a note that's not pretty or
in good taste ? he's a great vir-
tuoso
Django's recording career
was prolific. His greatest work,
arguably, was done with
Stephanie Grappelly and the
Quintet of the Hot Club of
France. Several of these record-
ings are still available and can
be ordered from any record
store.
Living in a time when mu-
sic is watched instead of listened
to, when bands and musicians
such as Pearl Jam, Aerosmith,
Janet Jackson and Metallica
mass-produce music aimed at
the common denominator, it's
refreshing to be able to pull out
a record or CD and listen to the
greatest guitar player ever,
Django Reinhardt.
By Gregory Dickens
Race relations handled with hypersensitivity j
A week ago today I had the
privilege to speak on a panel in
which the relationship between the
Civil Rights Movement and the
media was debated regarding con-
flict and compromise. Moderated
by Dr. Brian Haynes, the director
of minority student affairs, the
panel included guest-speaker and
columnist for the News and Observer,
Barry Saunders; Dr. T. Harrell
Allen, chair of Communications;
and James Rouse, the owner of the
local VVOOW 13.40 AM radio sta-
tion.
Lasting just over an hour and
a half, the discussion went well
because it all you could hope for?
recollections of past experiences,
expostulation and criticism of
present and future social move-
ments and media subjectivity, and
even a healthy dose of polite philo-
sophical disparity. As an occasional
Opinion Page writer, I have to ad-
mit how substantiating it was to
voice a viewpoint and receive in-
stant feedback, dissenting or con-
curring, i
But onto the point. There
seems to be a disturbing new trend
in society counteracting just what
the panel was designed for?open
and honest discussion of race
relations.The problem with intro-
ducing the subject into debate is
that many people don't wish to
speak about it for concern of being
misunderstood. The fear and dread
of being labeled a racist or fascist
for voicing an honest perspective
is a valid concern in today's society
i(and here's the assumption of too
many people these da$s) you're
talking to a group or individual
who presumes that if you have
something to say about race it must
be derogatory and inflammatory.
This means that unless you
are approaching the topic amongst
friends, or if you're invited to speak
in a formal, public forum, your
soapbox could be resting on mighty
thin ice. Obviously, this is debili-
tating to those who wish to speak
up and speak freely ? a notion
that has more than a small role in a
representative democracy such as
ours. t
If someone doesn't feel able
to communicate their ideas, then
someone else will gladly do so for
them, with or without their per-
mission. This is how we get so
1
many public figures calling them-
selves "representatives of the si-
lent majority" in matters of politics
or morals (H. Ross Perot, Jim
Falwell and Al Sharpton come to
mind).
So why is a modicum of si-
lence under duress so popular? We
as a society went through a harsh
period of confrontation when the
90s began. Abortion was in full
combative swing with Operation
Rescue at its legal zenith ani1 mul-
tiple civil rulings ensued.
A fever of censorship swept
the land where CDs were being
labeled and prohibited for sale to
thosel6 and younger. A new mo-
tion picture rating was imple-
mented. Reality shows arrived.
Talk shows crawled out of the
woodwork. Editorial columns be-
came more important than actual
journalistic articles. Infommercials
pummeled the populace. America
became a talk-a-thon of informa-
tion both contradictory and aggres-
sive. We were assailed by differing
viewpoints at all times on all sub-
jects.
And then we started hearing
about a superhighway for constant
information and 500-channel TV.
This wave alone is explanation
enough for why people may not be
talking anymore. Either our jaws
or our ears are sore.
My theory as to why race
relations are becoming taboo is a
hyper-sensitivity to recent racial
incidents, primarily the aftermath
of the publication of the Rodney
King tape. That's a shame, because
the incident wasn't about black and
white hate as it was about police
brutality.
If a Spanish or German man
the size of Rodney King led police
on a high-speed chase, was drunk
at the time, was also suspected of
being on PCP and resisted arrest,
he'd get pounded, too. 'Course, if
you're drinking and driving, that
alone is sufficient criteria, in my
eyes, for you to get the hell beat out
of you, no matter what your skin
color is.
But the resulting riots after
the first trial and the ludicrous pro-
ceedings of the Reginald Denny
trial made people skittish of bring-
ing up any ethnic debate. The hun-
dreds of talk show episodes on the
two cases didn't help, either.
But we still talk of abortion;
(see Tuesday's Opinion Page)
gun control, violence on TV and
Clinton's economic and hor-l
monal involvements. So why
aren't we talking about race re- ?
lations? ?
Some would say there is J
nothing to talk about. No prob
lem exists. If that's so, why is the !
principal element of the Civil
Rights Movement being disre- ?
garded? Our nation is segregate J
ing again ? this time voluntar-
ily.
White and black fratemii ?
ties and sororities, sitcoms with
eitherwhiteorblackfamilies(but ?
not both) and commercials that ;
cater to separate ethnic groups
exemplify a definite schism
These all aim for a special inter-
est: cultural identity. This signi- j
ties something.
As a society, increasingly, J
we are seeking a role in which to
exist that deviates from the iden- ?
tity of fellow countrymen. It is ??
fashionable to hyphenate one's ?
ethnic group to emphasize a jj
former allegiance. Asian-Ameri- 9
can, African-American, Euro- ?
pean-American.
It's amazing how many ?
people will use the Constitution I
to demand the right to consider 9
themselves anything they want, I
only to then denounce the coun- I
try that document supports. We ?
are not a nation, we are a con- i
glomerate. We are not a melting I
pot. We are a microwave oven. J
Frankly, if you need to sup- t
port your identity on what your I
ancestors have done, you should ?
to do something yourself to base I
an ego on. My point is that race I
relations as a topic may be moot J
due to the lack of relations.
By this, I mean security I
within all groups to sit down ?
and talk frankly and listen qui- J
etly without fear of reproach for
sincerecomments.Thepanellast J
Thursday was a great idea, and
we need more of them. We have
to talk, and we ha e to listen.
Otherwise, our separate cultural
identities will continue to drift
apart. Then we won't be living
in a country anymore. We'll just
be living on the same continent.
And how well will we all get
along then?
Stuff you should know
? Telly Savalas, the man best known for muttering "Who loves ya, baby?" died Saturday
of prostate cancer. He was indelibly identified as police Lt. Kojak in the 1970s series with his
shiny bald head and trademark lollipops. Comedian Don Rickles said despite the actor's roles
as gruff hooligans and then as the tough detective that Savalas was a charming man.
Who loves ya, baby? We do, Telly.
In ancient Roman times, a forum was the public assembly place for ,
Judicial matte?s and other activities. Today, a forum Is a medium for
open discussion. So consider yourself one-up on, let's say people in
Communist China. They lack this inalienable right. Why not go crazy
with democracy and write a letter? All letters may be addressed to:

Calling all skiers, feel the
By Tammy Carter
Staff Writer
It's a rush.
You feel the cold wind against
your faceasyourbodypicks up speed
until you reach the bottom of the
mountain, then you turn your skis so
that they throw up a cloud of snow
behind you as you come to an abrupt
stop.
No matter where you decide to
skiyouget the same thrill fromflying
down the mountain. Butyoudohave
several options about where to ski,
and all of them are within seven to
nine hours of Greenville. Three op-
tions are Snowshoe and Winter Place
in West Virginia, and Sugar Moun-
tain in Boone, N. G.
Snowshoe sits on the top of a
mountain near Marlinto. It offers
many different slopes for all levels of
skiers. If you decide to ski Snowshoe
and stay in one of the resorts on the
mountain, you can step out the back
door and head straight down the
mountain
Beginner trails at Snowshoe are
marked withgreencircles.Oneof the
longest trails begins with the Upper
Flume, connects with Mid Flume and
ends with Lower Flume. Any of the
green trails offers a relaxing run that
does not pick up much speed but is
challenging for beginners.
Skiers whowantmorespeed and
wanttotesttheir skills willwantto try
the blue square trails that mark the
way for intermediates. These trails
have steeper inclines and more mo-
guls,ormounds.SkipJackand Lower
Ball Hooter trails give you that speed
rush without too much fear.
Finally, Snowshoe has several
black diamond trails for advanced
skiers. The trail names?
Widowmaker, Grab Hammer,
Choker?intimidate many interme-
diate skiers. These trails have very
steep inclines and largemoguls to test
even advanced abilities. One ad-
vanced trail, the Cupp Run, even has
a warning sign advising all but the
most advanced skiers to stay away.
This mile and a half run shakes up
even skillful skiers.
The lines for the ski lift at
Snowshoe move
quickly,even on week-
ends, and the lift
rideitself seems
fairly short be-
cause the runs are
long.
Winter Place is about an hour
or two below Snowshoe. While it is
not nearly as challenging as Snow-
shoe, it is a good place to test your
skills on different slopes. The trails
have the same symbols to differenti-
ate between beginner, intermediate
and advanced trails. However, the
intermediate slopesranged from very
easy to somewhat difficult.
One intermediate slope, the
Bowl, seems to change each time you
go down You can almost choose
how difficult it willbe. The advanced
slopes, while steeper and
more challeng-
ing, seem like
the intermedi-
ate slopes at
Snowshoe.
The lines
for the ski lift are
very slow on
week-
ends,
b u t
may
move more quickly
during the week The lift ride is short,
but so were the ski runs.
For skiers who want to test their
abilities but do not want to leave the
state, Sugar Mountain in Boone is a
good slope to try. While it does not
have as many trails as Snowshoe or
Winter Place, it is a good ski moun-
tain It has one beginner trail that is
gentleand relaxing, ltalsohasacouple
of good intermediate slopes that are
challenging for people who want a
little more excitement.
It has a couple of advanced
trails?which hardly ever seem to be
open. Onetrailbeginsatthetopof the
mountain. Itseemslikean intermedi-
ate at first, but quickly gets steeper to
challenge its skiers.
One good thing about Sugar
Mountain is the ski lift. The lines
move very quickly and the trail lasts
almost as long as the ride up the
mountain The lift that takes you up
to the advanced level has an added
advantage. Once you complete the
advanced part of the run, you can get
back on the lift before you hit the
intermediate part of the trail.
All three mountains offer a chal-
lenge to all levels of skiers. If you do
not know how to ski, you can take
lessons at any one you choose. All
three have ski rentals, and you can
ski at any of them for around $30-
$35 on the weekend. t
Yourbiggest expense will come
from resort prices. The resorts on
the mountain are more expensive
than those a few miles away, but
they offer the convenience of not
having to drive up the mountain
every day. You might want to take
somemunchies with you. The food
is expensive, but it is worth the
money if you don't have anything
with you.
There are other ski mountains
in North Carolina. These include
Appalachian, Beech and Hawk's
Nest. Their rates are comparable
with Sugar.
Wherever you choose to ski,
you will have a great time. Choose
your mountain carefully to meet
your needs and expenses. Then
bundle up and feel the rush

ECU gets first
official comm. club
3y Steve Griffin
Staff Writer
There is a new group
forming at ECU called the
Communications Society. The
society encompasses public
relations, journalism, print
and video. It was started as a
grassroots effort with the help
of three ECU students: Brandy
Ducher, Karen Permison and
Rick Miller. Communications
professor Mary Ann Leon also
assisted the students in get-
ting the society started by go-
ing through SGA and form-
ing the first official communi-
cations club at ECU.
The Communications
Society's vice president, Rick
Miller, said, "we realized
there was a need for more op-
portunities for communica-
tion majors and minors that
were not offered before at
ECU The main goals of the
Communications Society are
to provide campus involve-
ment for communication stu-
dents and to provide infor-
mation on internships and re-
sume-writing by having guest
speakers.
The society would also
like to plan some field trips to
radio and TV stations in Ra-
leigh. Another possible goal
is to bring in some represen-
tatives of professional societ-
ies, like the Public Relations
Society of America (PRSA) to
speak about their professions
as specialists in communica-
tion.
The society wants all com-
munication students to par-
ticipate. Miller said, "We are
here for the communication
students and to provide help
for the students in the work-
place The main purpose of
the society is to provide an
extra outlet to learn new tech-
nology and what companies
want from a graduating se-

Philadelphia tackles AIDS epidemic
By Ike Shibley
Staff Writer
Philadelphia,starringTom Hanks
and DenzelWashingtonand directed
by Jonathan Demme, is the first film
from a major Hollywood studio to
deal with AIDS.
The story opens as Andrew
Beckett (Hanks) wins a case which
allows a construction company to
continue with its work Later that
night, Beckett is summoned to his
firm's board room where the part-
ners assign him to an extremely im-
portantcase.Atthismeeting,thefirm's
satisfaction with Beckett's work is
clearly articulated.
At the same meeting, a senior
partner notices a lesion on Beckett's
forehead which Beckett offhandedly
claims came from a racquetball. A
month later, Beckett finds himself
unemployed for unsatisfactory work
at his firm.
A file from the huge case that
Beckett had been assigned islost,and
this allegedly forces the partners to
fire Beckett. Beckett feels he is re-
leased simply because he is a homo-
sexual with AIDS, and subsequently
decides to sue the firm.
Beckett can find no lawyer in
Philadelphia to take his case, so he
deddestofightthefirmhimself. While
studying in the library one night, a
clerk asks Beckett if he would feel
more comfortable in a private study
room Beckett appears to be sick and
is raggedly dressed. Beckett asks the
clerk pointedly if he would feel more
comfortable.
Before the uneasy clerk can find
words to respond, another lawyer,
who has seen the events transpire,
comes to sit with Beckett and dis-
misses theclerkThelawyer.IoeMiller
(Washington), originally refused to
take Beckett's case but has had sec-
ond thoughts. This chance meeting
forces Miller into an act of heroism.
He decides to take the case and fight
for justice.
WheriRonN)'Swaner,thescreen-
writer, developed the idea of Miller,
he found a way to punctuate his story
with an exclamation mark. Miller
gives the audience a character with
whom to relate, and as soon as the
audience acknowledges thisrelation,
then it must also feel the transforma-
tion that occurs in Miller.
When Miller and Beckett first
talk in the former's office, Miller un-
easily eyes all the objects that Beckett
touches in his office. His unease is

Freedom Knows My Name
Melanie is one of those '70s
singers who actually never
stopped singing. Point being,
she's back with her first album in
10 years, Freedom Knows My
Name. She's been all over the
place. She was at Woodstock, for
crying out loud!
But what about the music?
Well, it bears that protest-type
feeling a lot of that early '70s stuff
did. Lots of harmony. Lots of
acoustic stuff. Hey, there's a swell
acoustic cover of "Purple Haze
Now where else can you get that?
Speaking of covers, there's also a
cover of Dylan's "Hard Rain"
(Whooee! The Edie Brickell
tune!?).
I don't know though. A lot of
the songs are about life and loss
and love, etc. Just plain ol'

Kevin Kinny
Down and Out Law
Kevin Kinny has just came
out with the interesting new re-
lease, Down and Out Law.
It's nothing like the fast-paced
electric music he's made with
Drivin' 'n' Cryin recently. This
album is almost exclusively
acoustic, and it contains a lot of
folk and blues. Some of it could
almost be mistaken for country.
The last couple of Drivin' 'n'
Cryin albums make me wonder
why - rery thing has been so hard
and fast. In the past they pro-
duced many really good acoustic
tracks, such as "Catch the Wind
and "Drop Your Tears At the
Door Fortunately, on Down and
Out Law, Kinny affirmed he
hadn't forgotten his foundation.
One thing this album is not is
a pick-me-upper: Most of the
songs deal with suffering.
Certain songs, such as the title
track, point out unfortunate
people. Other tracks, like "Save
For Me" and "Midwestern Blues
just speak of relationships gone
bad.
Kinny's voice is very rough
and rustic, and it's well-suited
for folk music although some
people could consider it whiny.
One of the few tracks that
contains any electric on it is titled
"ChattahoochieCoochie Man It

Staff Writer
The government has an-
nounced that sexually active young
people between the ages of 18 and
25 are at extreme risk of being in-
fected by HIV. About 12 million
new cases of STDs, including HIV
infection, are reported each year in
the U.S two-thirds of which occur
in people under the age of 25.
In reaction to this information,
the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) have launched
their new Prevention Marketing
Initiative. On Tuesday, Jan. 4, the
federal government announced its
plan to reach young people with
information on how to prevent the
spread of HTV. The messages will
be in the form of television and
radio public service announcements
that convey two critical HTV pre-
vention messages: Delay sexual in-
tercourse, or use latex condoms cor-
rectly and consistently during sex.
Although thecampaignhasmet
some opposition from a few reli-
gious groups, it has received great
support from the government. The
Clinton Administration proposed
and guided through Congress sig-
nificant increases in discretionary
AIDS spending on all levels. The
CDC, on the prevention level, was
increased by 9; $543.3 million will
be spent in 1994 on education?a
good effort on the government's
part.
This age group that is being
targeted is famous?or infamous?
for the time it spends watching TV.
Therefore, much of this campaign
will logically be in the form of com-
mercials, including brochures and
radio ads. For TV the ads range in
ideas from a condom crawling
across the room to get to the unpro-
tected couple, to the turning down
ofsexbecausenocondomwasavail-
able, to the "let's wait" abstinence
theory. The radio public service
announcements have a popular
edge with skits by Anthony Kiedis
of the Chilli Peppers and other ce-
lebrities on the value of condoms.
Some of these ads will also be in
Spanish.
This program has received
much praise from many AIDS coa-
litions, medical and pharmaceuti-
cal associations, and religious and
youth organizations. There is no
doubt that HIV is a growing prob-
lem, and education is a step in the
right direction. Even if an audience
doesn't agree with their means, the
warnings should be heeded.
Daniel Bross, the executive di-
rector of the AIDS Action Council,
praises the CDC's program. "On
behalf of the AIDS Action Council,
I want to express our strong sup-
port for the new 'America Responds
to AIDS' public service announce-
ments Bross said. "The new cam-
paign, whichaggressively promotes
the use of latex condoms as an effec-
tive stragedy for preventing HTV, is
long overdue. We wholeheartedly
endorse this campaign and stand
ready to assist CDC in the battle
against the spread of HTV
conveyed brilliantly by Demme's
camera. Demme focuses for an un-
comfortable length of time on each
object Beckett touches. Miller ends
his day by stopping at his family
practitioner to find out informatibn
on AIDS. Miller, it seems, fears he
would take the virus home to his
family simply by having an AIDS
victim in his office.
The transformation of Miller
occurs only by degrees, which ren-
ders his change all the more believ-
able. Miller listens incredulously as
his wife tells Mm about me friends
she has who are homosexual, and
he almost hits a gay man who tries
to pick him up in a drug store. Yet,
by the end of this remarkable film,
Miller has become a friend as well

LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Ifs
time for television's midseason
metamorphosis, when networks
dump their weak-witted sitcoms
and struggling dramas and intro-
duce well, more of the same.
OK, OK, let's give them a
chance; maybe a butterfly or two
will emerge among the new shows
to delight audiences.
A moment, however, fbf'a
couple of the dearly departed. The
big loss: NBC's fine family drama
"Against the Grain set in a foot-
ball-crazy Texas town. Despite
good reviews, it couldn't get, a
ratings first down.
Also gone is ABC's lightly
plotted but charmingly played
"Moon Over Miami a "Moon-
lighting" couldabeen. The net-
work claims it's on hiatus, but
expect that to be a permanent con-
dition.
Now, the contenders. ?
Five new series are already
up and running, including ABC's
"Birdland" (10p.m. EST Wednes-
day), starring Brian Dennehy as a
hospital psychiatric director. CBS
has "Burke's Law with Gene
Barry picking up the sleuth rolehe
played 30 years ago (9 p.m. EST
Friday).
Fox Broadcasting Co. gave the
midseason nod to "The George
CarlinShow" (9:30 p.m. EST Sun-
day), featuringthecomedian's ver-
bal antics, and to Henry Winkler
as a Rush Limbaugh-type in
"Monty" (8 p.m. EST Tuesday)
A pack of other shows waits
in the wings. ABC is staking"its
hopes on a mix of sitcoms, dra-
mas, a news magazine and one
animated comedy series.

Tahiti, Fiji featured in Travel- Adventure
By Danial Willis
Staff Writer
This past Monday, the ravel
dventure Film series came to E L
promoting the islands of lip and Ta-
hiti, rhe film pointed out rhatthetwo
nations have certain similarities, hut
thev are very different.
TTiev are both volcanic in origin,
theyhnithhaveiiUTediblesivnen and
they bom border the equator.
(ieot the first things pointed out
was that ancestorsof Fiji werebrought
to the West by the British, and ances-
tors of Tahiti were brought by the
i tench. During the presentation of
liji, the culture, and the people were
emphasized.Civilization in Fiji would
be considered primitive by our West-
ern standards.
Many ceremonial activities, such
as walkingonhotstonesand drinking
lertainnarcotic-likesubstancestopre-
serve the spin tot relatives which have
passed away, take place in FijiThe
people of Fiji seem very laid back and
were very eager to welcome visitors.
In the film, thev were depicted as
extremely generous people win icarred
little about material items.
The population in Fiji isn't ex-
tremely large. At one point in the
film the narrarator noted that traffic
lias gotten a lot worse in Fiji, but it's
still nothing compared to the traffic
in Greem ille.The price of living in
liii is considered very low by travel
s. ndardswhile the price of living in
Tahiti is considered very high.
Tahiti has a larger population
than Fiji. In the film, the traffic in
certain parts of Tahiti was com pi red
to large U.S. cities such as Chicago.
The section on Tahiti pointed
out more attractions, such as night
dubs and restaurants, that appeal
sped fica 11 v to tourists. Tahiti seemed
to be a much more modernized
area.The feature on Tahiti also
showed a little more tropical scen-
ery. In the Tahiti series, there was a
feature on scuba diving. The scuba
diving section showed sharks, reefs
and other aquatic element
Fiji seems like more ot a hidden
resort?agoodplacetogoinordor
explores different culture?butbet
ter known Tahiti is more of a tourist
attraction.

When a place gets crowded enough to
require IDs, social collapse is not far

thing about space travel is that it made
it possible to go elsewhere.

as a lawyer to Beckett and has come to
terms with his own homophobia.
Philaiitiphni is as much Miller's
storv as Beckett's. One of the most
transfixing, scenes contains only these
two men. After a party that Beckett
throws, he and Miller sit down to
review thequestions tha twill beasked
of Beckett when he takes the witness
stand the following Monday.
Beckett dearly cares little about
the question, t le realizes that he is
nearing death and that he may not
live to see the outcome ot the trial. 1 le
talkstranklv with Miller whileMoart
plays in the background. When "1 a
Mamma Morta an ana from the
opera Andre Chenier, plays, Beckett
asks Miller if he likes opera. Upon
hearing a negative response, Beckett
relates his loveof opera and especially
of this particular aria.

Beckett emotionallv tells Miller
what is being siici. Throughout the
scene, MiJler's face rerruinsdark while
Ih kett'siseerily illuminated asafire
flickers in the background. Near the
end of this powerful scene, firelight
flickers acn ss Miller's face, insinuat-
ing that Miller was finally seeing
Beckett a a human being instead of
ust a gay lawyer with AIDS. The
audience finally sees more to Beckett
than has previously been related.The
ind ign i ties vlsj ted upon him suddenly
become even more horrible and un-
conscionable.
Philadelphia, for all its many at-
tributes, still handles homosexuality
with Uo delicate a touch. Never once
does Beckett kiss his partner( Antonio
Banderas) on screen, although Miller

and his partner dance together and
have se eral minor scenes together,
their compassion and love never gets
dearly related.
The horrors of A IDS only briefly
get shown asBeckett Rises weight and
once exposes his torso to reveal
Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS) lesions.
Though not all AIDS victims suffer
severe KS lesions and severe thin-
ning, many do. Had Beckett wors-
ened moredrastically.orhad thecam-
era allowed the audience to see more
of his decline, then the ravages of
AIDS would have been more force-
fully evident.
Though many viewers will be
turned off, the truth needs to be fold.
Perhaps only documentaries, like the
harrowingoneofTomjoslinand Mark
Massi, two lovers who both died of
AIDS (Sihvrkke Life: Vie Vierv From
Here) will have the courage to un-
flincliingly show the horrors and the
sorrow associated with this disease.
Near the end of Philadelphia,
Beckett seems to lose interest in the
trial as his condition worsens. When
Rar lyShilts, an AIDS victim and the
author of Ami the Band Played On:

was recently interviewed about the
success of his book and the HBO
movie made from it, he said: "The

East Carolina lost to confer
ence leader James Madison Uni-
versity in a close battle in Minges
Colesium last night. The Pirates fell
70-68 due to poor first-half shoot-
ing, from which they couldn't re-
cover.
Pirate fans (6,204) packed
Minges Colesium to see the tele-
vised ball game, and were rewarded
with one of the most exciting con-
ference matchups of the year.
ECU point guard Kareem
Richardson scored first, hitting a
14-foot jumper from the right side.
The Pirates held the lead at 8-5 until
they hit a scoring drought, not scor-
ing for almost six minutes. How-
ever, they continued to play hard-
nosed, tenacious defense which
kept them in the game.
Anton Gill's lay-up with five
minutes remaining in the first half
put ECU on top, but JMU stormed
back. Kent Culuko, the CAA's top
scorer, drove through the ECU de-
fense and hit a 7-foot jumper to put
the Dukes up by five at 35-30.
The first half was dominated
by exceptional team defense and
poor ECU shooting. The Pirates
ended the half shooting 33.3 per-
cent, with no points coming from
three-pointers.
Kareem Richardson's eight
points led the Pirates in scoring,
while the Dukes were led by guard
Dennis Leonard, who also had
eight. Early in the game, the two
guards exchanged heated words
and had to be separated by team-
mates and officiaLs.
ECU came out on fire in the
second half, and with three min-
utes gone, found themselves up by
two points, at 37-35. The Pirates
took control of the tempo, receiv-
ing hot shooting from Anton Gill,
who ended up with a team-high 16
points on 7-10 shooting.
"I was kind of passive during
the first half, so I tried to come out
and be more agressive he said.
"Also, the fans have really been
supporting us
The Pirates slowly lost control
of the lead, but held a 62-62 tie with
4:06 remaining. After ECU took a
time out, JMU forward Clayton
Ritter scored from underneath,
putting the Dukesupby two. Lester
Lyons came back and nailed a three-
pointer for the Pirates, giving ECU

Tarheels sweep
Pirate swimmers
By Brad Oldham
Staff Writer
The ECU men's swim team
suffered their first defeat of the
season on Tuesday against the
North Carolina Tarheels. The
Tarheels won 132-98, while the
Lady Tarheels got the win as well,
1424-92. The Pirate men are now
10-1 on the season, while the
women are 9-2. Both teams are
undefeated in the CAA confer-
ence at 4-0.
"It was probably our closest
meet ever against UNC head
coach Rick Kobe said after the
loss. "We are very pleased with
our performance today. We had
hard practices both yesterday and
this morning to get ready for the
Tarheels
David Benson led the Pirate
men with two wins in the 200-
meter freestyle (1:45.41) and the
100-meter butterfly (57.85). ECU
also got help from senior Lance
Tate, who won the 100-meter
breaststroke with a time of 1:00.67.
The relay team of Brian Soltz, Pat
Cassidy, Chris Bembenek and
John Donovan placed first in the
200-meter free.
For the Lady Pirates, junior
Meg Lawton and senior
Jacqueline Silber both had first-
place finishes for the day. Lawton
got the win in the 50-meter
freestyle with a time of 26.08, while
Silber won the 100-meter freestyle
with a time of 56.38. Lawton also
finished second in the 100-meter
freestyle (57.26). Other runners-
up were: sophomore Jackie
Schmeider 200-meter freestyle
(1:58.24); junior Tracy Garrett 50-
meter freestyle (26.21); sophomore
Hilary Stokes 100-meter breast-
stroke (1:09.53); and the team of
Schmeider, freshman Elizabeth
Bradner, sophomore Beth
Humphrey, and freshman Christy
Winn in the 200-meter free relay
(1:43.91).
The Pirates have just one meet
left in the season before they host
the conference championships.

Home winning streak spoiled
By Brian Olson
Sports Editor
Minges Colesium has meant
everything to the Pirates this year
until last night.
The James Madison Dukes
snapped ECU's home unbeaten
streak with a 70-68 win. The Pirates
arenow7-latMingesandhavejust
one win on the road this year and
that did not come against a CAA
opponent. ECU just cannot seem to
bring thatwinningedge with them
when theyplayaway. ECU is just 1-
6 on the road.
The Pirates were heavy under-
dogs going into the game against
the Dukes, but the 6,204 fans and
home court advantage helped keep
the Bucs close.
"I just hope they the fans stick
with us and keep coming out head
coach Eddie Payne said
Minges only holds 6,500 and
the almost sell-out has shown how
the Pirates and the CAA confer-
ence has grown over the last few
years.
The game was also seen on the
Home Team Sports Network and
all of the crowd noise and enthusi-
asm was sure to impress many
viewers. Many fans waved yellow
Pirate sabers to cheer the Pirates on
and others waved annoying
signsatJMUplayersduringfoul
shots.
"The fans have really sup-
ported us so far this year and we
need the support of the fans to
really pick us up during the
game center Anton Gill said
"When we made a run at the
begjning of the second half the
fans really helped us out

home games for the Pirates this

NFL rerun set for Sunday
Wallerstrom gives
ECU foreign aid
By Flame Deal
(AP) ? What could be new?
Certainly not the teams, nor the
incentives nor the buildup.
Still, the Buffalo Bills and Dal-
las Cowboys have found a few
original ways of spicing up
Sunday's Super Bowl.
For one, they've given us the
first immediate rematch in the 28-
year history of the game.
"I expect this to be a great
Super Bowl Cowboys coach
Jimmy Johnson said, which means
he's looking for something rela-
tively new ? there's only been a
handful of great Super Bowls.
"It's nice to be a part of his-
tory, but that's not the ultimate
goal said Bills linebacker Darryl
Talley of Buffalo's record fourth
consecutive trip to the big game.
"The ultimate goal is the thing
that's eluded us, something we
have to make up in our minds and
we've got to conquer and attack
and get it
Getting the NFL champion-
ship would be something very new
for a franchise that has managed to
be outscored 109-60 in the big
game.
Marv Levy's approach to the
game might be different after the
distractions of the last three, rang-
ing from the Gulf War in 1991 to
Bruce Smith's comments on rac-
ism in 1992 to Talley's nightclub
punchout with Magic Johnson's
bodyguard a year ago. The Bills
coach is thinking of placing a cur-
few on his players, something that
rarely has worked for other Super
Bowl teams.
"I have a player's committee,
which I'll confer with tomorrow
Levy said Monday. "We'll talk
about it. I'd like to get their reac-
tion and their experience in this
area.
"I think it can be a mistake to
have your players sitting in their
hotel rooms every night. We talk
to them about common sense
The Cowboys won't be fool-
ing with any curfews. It's simply
not necessary, guard Nate New-
ton said.
"Last year, we were just wild
he said, noting that they still won
52-17. "It didn't matter we were
just out there. This year, we're a
little bit more in control, we're
aware of the situation
The law of averages suggest
that something very rare should
happen in an upcoming Super
Bowl ? an AFC victory. It has
been exactly a decade since the Los
Angeles Raiders beat Washington
for the last AFC win.
"If experience is any factor,
we know the highs and lows
Bills general manager John Butler
said. Butler, incidentally, is new to
his job, having replaced Bill Polian
last year. "When you look at the

It's a long way from the
quaint Swedish village of Solna
to the flourishing tobacco fields
of Eastern North Carolina. But
for six-foot East Carolina Lady
Pirate center Michaela
Wallerstrom, Tobacco Road is
the place she wanted to play
basketball.
The East Carolina women's
basketball team has become
truly international. This year,
the Lady Pirates have two play-
ers that have traveled across
the Atlantic Ocean hoping to
score here in the United States.
Along with Wallerstrom,
Staffordshire, England's Justine
Alipress will call Greenville, N.
C. home for the next four years.
ECU has already tasted the
sweet success of international
relations when it comes to
hoops. England's Gaynor
O'Donnell left the Lady Pi-
rates last year as the women's
NCAA career leader in assists.
For Wallerstrom and
Alipress, the teammates are
also roommates. When asked
about Wallerstrom, Alipress
says she is very impressed
with her new Swedish friend.
"I can relate to her says
Alipress. "We are a support
system for each other. I don't
know how I would have coped
in coming here to play bas-
ketball without her

The East Carolinian 13
(AP) ? The Atlantic Coast
Conference is revamping the way it
schedules football games, a change
that could bring in millions of dol-
lars in television money.
Traditionally, colleges have ar-
ranged football games several years
in advance. Some schedules, in fact,
are booked for a decade or longer.
With such lead time, hotels and
restaurants have been able to plan
ahead for home games, which can
draw tens of thousands of fans for a
weekend. They've also been able to
spread big business around by steer-
ing festivals, conventions and other
events to dates when the local team
is on the road.
Now that's changing, The hi exes
& Observer of Raleigh reported.
In search of lucrative television
contracts, the ACC has decideTto
wait until the last minute to firm up
its league pairings. The conference
will now announce gamedateseach
year in December, nine months be-
fore the season starts.
With the new policy, the ACC
figures it can capitalize on more
television deals with national net-
works such as ESPN and ABC.
With more flexibility, the
league hopes to be able to move
attractive matchups into slots that
have a better chance of getting on
the tube.
The ACC first revised itssched-
ules to suit television in 1993. The
result: 23 league games appeared
on na tional TV, more than twice the
number from the year before.
Each nationally televised game
Former boxing champ
loses another battle
(AP) ? A television station's
report that a deal was in the works
that could free Mike Tyson was
denied yesterday by a spokes-
man for the prosecutor's office,
who said no such agreement
would even be considered.
Tyson, a former heavyweight
champion, was convicted of rap-
ing a beauty pageant contestant
in an Indianapolis hotel room in
1991. He is serving a six-year
prison sentence at the Indiana
Youth Center.
WTHR-TV of Indianapolis
first reported Monday night that
Tyson would admit the crime in
return for prosecutors agreeing
to cut his sentence to time served.
Both sides may be agreeable to
such a deal to avoid an upcoming
hearing in the Indiana Court of
Appeals on whether the
prosecutor's office withheld evi-
dence, the TV station said.
"That's not true. There is no
such deal Rob Smith, a spokes-
man for prosecutor Jeffrey
Modisett, said. "We're not enter-
taining any deal similar to that
from any party
WTHR said neither side was
talking publicly about the deal,
and it did not disclose its sources
for the report.
"To my knowledge we have
not been approached and if we
were approached we would not
entertain any such deal Smith
said. "No one from the office has
been approached" or offered a
deal, he said.
WTHR reported this morn-
ing that "prosecutors are said to
be waiting for the Tyson camp to
file their proposed deal with the
courts before a decision is made
Tyson attorney Alan
Dershowitz, reached at his home
in the Boston area late Monday,
said he could not comment on
whether any representatives for
Tyson were pursuing negotia-
tions that could lead to an early
release.
"I've had no discussions"
with the prosecutor's office,
Dershowitz said. "I am going
ahead and preparing for the hear-
ing
The Court of Appeals rejected
Tyson's first appeal to reverse his
1992 conviction. Dershowitz has
taken that appeal to the U.S. Su-
preme Court, but it has not de-
cided whether to hear the case.
The defense also pursued a
second round of appeals on its
contention that Tyson should
have a new trial because the
prosecutor's office withheld from
the defense team information that
the woman intended to sue Tyson
for civil damages. The defense
claimed that the information
showed she was motivated to by
a potentially large damage award
against the former heavyweight
boxing champion.
The woman, Desiree Wash-
ington, was a contestant in the
Miss Black America pageant held
in Indianapolis in July 1991.
;s for TV
brought in about $350,000, which
meant an extra $4 million above
1M42, not counting regionalTV. The
money was divided evenly among
the conference's nine schools.
"What we're trying to do, obvi-
ously, is maximize TV exposure
said Tom Mickle, assistant commis-
sioner for the ACC. "The benefits
could be huge
The financial boon will likely
grow more. For its 1993 and 1994
schedules, the ACC mostly tink-
ered with game dates that had been
set years in advance and most
schools had to change only two or
three home matchups.
But starting in 1995, the con-
ference will essentially start its
league schedule from scratch,
Mickle said.

Dolphins could also go to Huizenga
Owner already has two other teams in Florida
(AP) ? Before H. Wayne
Huizenga can complete his pur-
chase of the Miami Dolphins, he
must persuade the NFL to waive
a longstanding rule against cross-
ownership of other teams.
Huizenga, who already owns
baseball's Florida Marlins and the
NHL Florida Panthers,bought the
Dolphins from the family that
founded the franchise in 1966.
Thedeal announced Monday will
require approval from NFL own-
ers.
"It's not a slam dunk
Huizenga admitted.
Published reports quoted
unidentified sources as saying the
purchase price was $138 million.
Owning the Dolphins would
strengthen the 55-year-old
Huizenga's position as one of the
nation's most influential figures
in the sports and entertainment
fields. The head of Blockbuster
Entertainment said he had sev-
eral motivations for making the
deal.
"It was made as a fan, as a
businessman, and because my
wife told me she likes the Dol-
phins Huizenga said at a news
conference.
The sale was expected, and
there had been ongoing specula-
tion about Huizenga's interest.
The heirs of Dolphins founder
Joe Robbie, who died in 1990,
were forced to sell the team so
they could pay a $47 million es-
tate tax debt.
"I feel like I've been hit by a
truck said an emotional Janet
Robbie, one of the Dolphins' trust-
ees. "We'll always be proud of
our father for ha ving brought pro-
fessional sports to South Florida
Huizenga, a former Dolphins
season-ticket holder, began his
business career as a Fort Lauder-
dale garbage man in the 1950s.
He built Blockbuster into the
nation's largest video retailer be-
fore venturing into sports.
The purchase was
Huizenga's second major trans-
action this month. On Jan. 7, he
agreed to an S8.4 billion merger
between Blockbuster and cable
television giant Viacom Inc.
Huizenga will become vice chair-
man of the merged companies.
The mega-conglomerate is
trying to purchase Paramount
Communications Inc which
owns the New York Knicks and
Rangers.
That could complicate
Huizenga'scross-ownership situ-
ation.
"This would be a big change
in the rule said New Orleans
Saints owner Tom Benson, chair-
man of the NFL's finance com-
mittee. "It's not going to be an
easy task getting that done. But
I'm not saying it won't get done,
either
The finance committee, made
up of seven NFL owners, will
visit with Huizenga andsubmita
recommendation to the other 21
owners. Huizenga expects he can
persuade them to make an excep-
tion to the cross-ownership rule.
"A lot of things have changed
since they put that rule into ef-
fect Huizenga said.
"I've been told by the com-
missioner (Paul Tagliabue) that
they are looking at visiting that
subject themselves and perhaps
changing the rule
In a statement, the NFL said:
"We cannot speculate on the
league's final evaluation of these
matters
The league expects a final
vote on the sale prior to its annual
meeting March 20 in Orlando.
Dolphins coach Don Shula,
who has one year left of his con-
tract, will remain at least through
1994, Huizenga said.
CBS searching into Winston Cup
(AP) ? A Nashville Network
executive expects the cable channel
to remain at the forefront of televis-
ing Winston Cup races even though
CBS is looking for new sports to
replace NFL games.

channels. The cable station w ill tele-

ally all its Sunday schedule is about

! CBS, which already has rights
ticjthe Daytona 500, recently lost its
IFL contract to the Fox network.
CBS executives said last week they
aire looking at various sports pro-
grams, including Winston Cup
races, as a replacement.
"I don't see them taking over
Winston Cup Patti Wheeler,
motorsports director for TNN, said
Tuesday.
"They can get nothing this year
because the contracts already are
signed. The NFL was a huge part of
their programming, and there are
not enough Winston Cup events to
fill that
She said there are four or five
open contracts for races in 1995.
TNN already has signed to televise
eight next year and could do more.
"We will look at all of them
said Wheeler, who has worked pre-
viously for ABC, ESPN, TBS and
Prime Network. "It depends on the
rights fees, the time of year, the
availability
Each of the 30 races negotiates
the television rights. It is not a pack-
age deal as is done with the NFL
and Major League Baseball.
"CBS does have an appetite for
racing Wheelersaid. "CBSalways
has been a force in the bidding.

takes a look at
TNN, which focuses its week-
day programming on country mu-
sic, switches to motor sports cover-
age on Sunday year round and pa rt

TNN's live Winston Cup races
this year include two from
Rockingham, N.C, two from Do-
ver, Dei, and one each from Con-
cord, N.C, Pocono, Pa Loudon,
N.H. and Phoenix.
The cable channel also will tele-
cast 18 Busch Grand National races

Madden's deal
with Fox done
(AP) ? John Madden walked
into a Cowbovs meeting room in
Dallas and defensive end Charles
Haley spotted him immediately.
"Quickly and quietly, huh?"
hesaid to Madden. "Quickly maybe,
but quietly, no way"
And you know what? " He was
right Madden said.
"Quickly and quietly" was the
way Madden said he wanted to
make his life change. The two Q's.
But it was with much fanfare Mon-
day that Madden became "the final
piece to the jigsaw puzzle" for Fox
Sports president David Hill's new
football machine.
Madden signed a four-year con-
tract worth a reported $32 million,
or $8 million a year, and will be
joined shortly by his CBS broadcast
mate of 13 years, Pat Summerall.
Summerall signed a four-year
contract with Fox "some weeks
ago according to a source close to
the network, and that announce-
ment, along with others, will be
made in the coming weeks.
"What we're doing in 28 weeks
is creating what CBS has had 38
years to put together, so there are
still one or two things outstand-
ing Hill said.
Fox'sannouncementcameone
day after Madden and Summerall
broadcast their last game for CBS,
the NFC championship in Dallas.
CBS, which had televised NFL
games since 1956, lost the NFC por-
tion of the contract last month to
Fox's bid of $1.58 billion for four
years.
"John is not only someone Fox
wanted, but needed Hill said in a
telephone interview.
Also reportedly on Fox's
agenda will be Ed Goren, senior
producer at CBS who will join Fox
as its executive producer, as well
as producer Bob Stenner and di-
rector Sandy Grossman, who
worked with the Madden-
Summerall crew.
Madden said that a chance to
continue working NFC games
played a part in his decision, along
with a chance to continue working
with Summerall and others.
"I worked with Pat for so long,
I couldn't see myself working wi th
anybody else Madden said in a
telephone interview.

Smith leads Heat to sting Hornets
MIAMI (AP) ? Steve Smith
has stepped into a leadership role
that has helped the Miami Heat
step out of a season-high, seven-
game losing streak.
The third-year point guard has
led the Heat to back-to-back blow-
out victories at home over the Wash-
ington Bullets and Charlotte Hor-
nets.
On Tuesday night, Smith
scored 25 points and handed out 10
assists as the Heat defeated the Hor-
nets, 119-98. On Sunday, he had 18
points and a career-high 15 assists
in Miami's 113-80 victory over
Washington.
"I'm the person who's going to
bring the ball upcourt Smith said.
"Point forward, point guard, point
two, that's the position I want to be
in, the leadership role
The combined 54-point mar-
gin of victory is Miami's largest
ever in back-to-back games.
"We hit a bottom low Heat
coach Kevin Loughery said of their
seven-game losing streak which
ended Sunday. "Steve has stepped
forward to take charge more, which
is necessary for us
Glen Rice, Miami's best pure-
shooter, has been the chief benefi-
ciary of Smith's generous passes.
He has scored 21 and 25 points
respectively in the past two games.
"Steve has taken over the lead-
ership role on this team Rice said.
"He is playing like the point guard
we need, directing everybody
Miami has taken control of the
past two games early with a huge
first quarter advantage ? 36-22
against Washington and 41-30 over
Charlotte.
Smith and Rony Seikaly shot a
combined 9-for-9 against the Hor-
nets in the first quarter as only Char-
lotte center Alonzo Mourning of-
fered anv resistance with 15 points,
11 rebounds, and seven blocks in
the first halt.
Mourning, however, was not a
factor in the second half, totaling
only two points, four rebounds and
one block.
"Weneed to play harderif we're
going to improve Mourning said.
"We need to plav for a full 48 min-
utesand keep our composure when
things aren't going well
"When we play poorly, it's ob-
vious that we've got individual
agendas said Seikaly, who shot
10-for-l 2 from the field for 26 points
Tuesday and has grabbed 30 re-
bounds in the two games. "We

game in a row and held our inten-
Quarterback position
does not concern Jones
(AP) ? Inheriting a team with
only one quarterback under con-
tract ? and that one's about to un-
dergo surgery to his throwing arm
? doesn't cause June Jones much
concern.
"That doesn't scare me. I know
we're going to move the ball with
the people we have no matter who
lines up at that position said Jones,
who was named coach of the At-
lanta Falcons on Monday, replac-
ing the fired Jerry Glanville.
Quarterback Bobby Hebert,
who suffered from tendinitis in his
throwing elbow much of last sea-
son, is scheduled to undergo sur-
gery next week to repair and reat-
tach a tendon in his right elbow.
Atlanta's other three quarter-
backs ? Chris Miller, Billy Joe
Tolliver and Bob Giordano ? are
free agents.
Last season, the Falcons ranked
second in the NFL with 28 touch-
down passes, were rated second in
passing and fifth in total offense in
the NFC.
Jones, 40, the Falcons assistant
headcoachforoffenseforthreeyears
under Glanville, was a backup for
the club when Steve Bartkowski
was the Atlanta quarterback in the
late 1970s.
Jones has not signed a contract
and terms were not disclosed, but
club president Taylor Smith said,
"We're thinking of three years
Smith said he interviewed five
or six other candidates, but that
Jones was the one he favored after
Glanville was fired Jan. 4 following
a second consecutive 6-10 season.
Glanville had one year left on a five-
year contract. He was 28-38 in his
four seasons.
"We felt June's the guy we'd
like to run our football team Smith
said.
The only other coach consid-
ered seriously was former Wash-
ington coach Joe Gibbs. But, Smith
said, the Redskins refused to allow
the Falcons to talk to Gibbs.
Jones, who initiated the run-
and-shoot offense for the Falcons
when he was hired in 1991, said the
team's first priority, however, will
be defense.
"He's right said free safety
Scott Case. "You can't get to the
place we want to get to without
having a solid defense. We played
real well sometimes last year, but
sometimes we played terrible
The Falcons were 25th in total
defense last season, and 28th and
last in points allowed ? 365 ? an
average of 24 points per game.
Jones has spent 11 years as an
assistant coach, the last seven in the
NFL with Houston, Detroit and the
Falcons.

Magic increase streak at Charlotte's expense
Orlando sets franchise shooting record
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) ? If
they handed outOscars for an NBA
basketball game, the Orlando Magic
would have swept the Academy
Awards Wednesday night.
The Best Performance honor
would have been a shoe-in as the
Magic set franchise records by
shooting 65.3 percent and captur-
ing their fifth consecutive win with
a 145-120 romp over the Charlotte
Hornets.
As usual, the star of the Magic's
performance wasShaquilleONeal,
who scored a game-high 36 points
on 17-of-20 shooting. But with
AnferneeHardaway's32pointsand
Nick Anderson's 29, the Magic
would also have swept the Best
Supporting Cast honors.
"It's not a one-man show
Anderson said of the Magic pro-
duction. "One man can't beat five
other guys and we've learned that.
"A lot of teams focus on Shaq.
I just try to step in the hole. I think
that year of ma turity has set in with
Shaq. The first year he felt he had to
shoot it. Now he knows when teams
are collapsing around him he can

O'Neal all came close to posting
triple-doubles. Hardaway lacked

Then the Hornets rallied,

was the catalyst, hitting 6 of 7 shots
for 14 points in the quarter.

Thompson adds, "She just needs
to become more accustomed to

out-of-bounds rules. "It takes a
little getting used to for her says
Thompson.
Coach Thompson, though,
likes her newest recruit,
complimenting Wallerstrom on
her shot-making ability and over-
all court-awareness.
Wallerstrom was a reserve for
the Swedish National Team that
played in the most recent World
University Games. An excellent
athlete, Wallerstrom also was
named most valuable player for
the Solna Tennis Club where she
was ranked eighth in the Swedish

This year, the Lady Pirates are
young, fielding a team of most
underclassmen. But Wallerstrom
says ECU's youthful inexperience
may surprise some teams. "We

anything from us. We'll show that
we have a good team confides
Wallerstrom.
Off the court, Wallerstrom is
