WZMB alters format
Tambra Zion
Assistant News Editor
WZMB has undergone a for-
mat alteration in an effort to
attract more listeners. The sta-
tion will now plav more main-
stream music to attract a larger
audience.
"It's a slight modification
between the hours of 6 a.m.
and 6 p.m. What we're aiming
for is more of a mainstream
sound and the emphasis there
is on sound said Jeremy
Leftwich, program director.
The format changes are a re-
sult of a survey WZMB con-
ducted through the marketing
department last fall. The station
does not plan to play strictly top
40 or alternative music, but is
aiming for songs from any band
with a mainstream sound.
"The changes we have initi-
ated are in response to the sur-
vey that was taken suppos-
edly it was done by random se-
lection, which someone told me
is the best way of getting an
accurate response from the gen-
eral listenership Mike
O'Donnel, general manager,
said. The survey stated that
the number one reason stu-
dents do not listen to WZMB
is because of the format.
"They're playing much
better music now, more al-
ternative, like college rock
Nicole Peele, a sophomore,
said.
Leftwich said WZMB will
continue to play requests,
even if they come in during
the hours between 6 a.m. and

Roads lead to injuries
Aluminum tab
collection to end
Nan Patterson
Staff Writer
Time is running out to collect
all of the aluminum can tabs left
lying around from this past week-
end.
As of Nov. 1,1994, The Ronald
McDonald House of Greenville
will no longer collect can tabs from
aluminum cans to raise money. A
campaign to collect bar tabs from
Scott paper products will be
launched.
"We appreciate all of the effort
put into tab collecting, but would
like to turn that energy into col-
lecting labels said Suzie Walker,
executive house director.
The tabs were once prosperous
for the Ronald McDonald House,
but due to a recent drop in the
price of aluminum, the tabs will
no longer be collected.
"The time and effort put into
collecting tabs is no longer cost
effective Walker said.
Originally, the tabs brought in
65 cents per pound, now it is hard
to revenue even 25 cents per
pound.
Scott PaperCompany sponsors
the bar code collection campaign,
and offered it to the Ronald
McDonald House. Scott will do-
nate 10 cents to the RonalJ
McDonald House for every label
collected.
"We plan for this campaign to
be ongoing indefinitely, "Walker
said. "Bar tabs are easier, cleaner
and less costly
This program encourages the
ise of Scott paper products, and
provides those who already use
the Scott brand the opportunity to
help the community.
The Scott products include toi-
let paper, paper towels or baby
wipes with the "Scott" name on
them.
"Cottenelle, Viva and Baby
Fresh brands are also included
Walker said.
Glisson's Enterprises, located on
Stokes Highway, will be collecting
tabs for The Ronald McDonald
House in Greenville.
"Glisson's was willing to do this
for us ? they are doing us a favor
Walker saidThey will be mailing
a check to us for the value of tabs,
all as a donation
Also, the McDonald restaurants
in Carteret County and Jackson-
ville .vill still collect tabs, and the
earnings will be sent toGreenville's
Ronald McDonald House.
Labels can be collected and
mailed to Ronald McDonald House,
549 Moye Boulevard, Greenville,
N.C. 27834.
There are four Ronald McDonald
Houses located in North Carolina.
The cities include Chapel Hill,
Durham, Winston-Salem and
Greenville. The organization is
growing with 157 houses across the
world, 122 of which are in the U.S.
The Ronald McDonald House of
Eastern North Carolina provides
lodging or a "home away from
home" for the families of seriously
ill children visiting the Children's
Hospital in Greenville.
"Since Father's Day, 1987, the
House has housed over 5,500 differ-
ent admissions representing over
3,300 different families, "Walker
said.

Students should be alert at in-
tersections and pedestrian
crossways around campus.
On Wednesday, Oct. 12, at 5:00
p.m Carolyn Weakland, a jun-
ior philosophy major, was a pas-
senger in one of the cars involved
in a three car accident at the in-
tersection of Fifth and Meade
Streets.
Weakland said her roommate,
Michelle Ball, a junior pre-physi-
cal therapy major, was driving
down Fifth Street when a white
truck, leaving campus, pulled out
of the street between the School
of Nursing and Speight Build-
ing. The driver of the white truck
hit another car head on. Ball did
not have time to stop and the
three cars collided.
"There was no time to stop
Weakland said. "The three cars
flew all over
The car was totaled and
Weakland and Ball were taken to
the hospital and treated for mi-
nor injuries.
"If we weren't wearing
seatbelts, it could have been re-
ally bad Weakland ?aid.
Weakland said the man driv-
ing the truck said that he did not
see Ball's car because another car
turned onto Fifth Street, block-
ing his view.
"I honestly believe the poor
guy didn't see us Weakland
said.
While at the scene of the acci-
dent, Weakland said the attend-
ing officer, Officer Robert Jones
of the Greenville Police Depart-
ment said he had himself been
involved in an accident with an-
other car at the same Fifth and
Meade Street intersection, while
driving his police car, when the
other car pulled out in front of
him.
Weakland said she would
like to be involved with mak-
ing the intersection safer.
"I want to see what I can
do to get a light there
Weakland said.
Weakland said that mem-
bers of the Alpha Delta Pi So-
rority, whose sorority house
is on the corner of Fifth and
Meade streets, who saw the
accident and a number of oth-
ers were thinking about start-
ing a petition for a stoplight.
"They were trying to get
involved with getting a light
there Weakland said.
Dr. George Harrell, assis-
tant vice chancellor for facili-
ties, said the department
would have to look at the situ-
ation before deciding if there
is a need for the university to

RDI, CAT celebrate service
Stephanie Lassiter
News Editor
ECU celebrated two anniver-
saries last week as the Regional
Development Institute (RDI) rec-
ognized 30 years in existence and
the Center for Applied Technol-
ogy (CAT) commemorated 10
years of service.
On hand for the luncheon and
commemoration ceremony, held
Wednesday, Oct. 19, were Chan-
cellor Eakin, Congreeman Mar-
tin Lancaster, past RDI director
Janice Faulkner, as well as the
widows and families of past di-
rectors Th( mas Warren Willis
and Rufus Timothy Brinn. Por-
traits of Willis, Brinn and
Faulkner were unveiled by Eakin.
"East Carolina University,
from its very beginning has had
as its motto 'To Serve Eakin
said. "That is not only a motto,
but it is something that is taken
very seriously by this institu-
tion
Willis, the founding director
of RDI served from December
1964 through July 1981. Willis
was preceded by Brinn, who
served from August 1981
through January 1983. Faulkner
served from February 1983
through January 1993. Al Delia
is currently the director of RDI.
RDI provides eastern North
Carolina with a number of ser-
vices including: community
planning and development,
grant assistance, site designs and
feasibility projects and research
information. RDI serves any lo-
cal, state or federal government
agency, non-profit organizations,
businesses or individuals. RDI
helped with grant approvals for
the Kinston Regional Jetport and
the Center for the Sound at
Mattamuskeet Lodge.
"Center for the Sounds is go-
ing to put northeastern North
Carolina on the map for the fast-
est growing tourism model that
we have anywhere and that is
Ecotourism Lancaster said.
Also recognized during the
service was the Center for Ap-
plied Technology which opened
10 years ago. According to the
Center's brochure, it has seven
primary goals which include in-
tegrating service activities with
the university's teaching and re-
search missions, providing uni-
versity-based support to com-
munity businesses, expanding
economic development while
improving the area's quality of
life, coordinating clients and ex-
perts, providing management
advice, developing custom train-
ing programs and providing a
networking outlet.
Dr. Mark Friend is the current
director of CAT. Friend and
other CAT staff members pro-
vide clients with information
about environmental and safety
issues such as OSHA require-
ments.
Martin Lancaster spoke to the
group on regional development
in eastern North Carolina and
focus on the progress of the
Global Transpark in Kinston
and the Center for the Sounds
at Lake Mattamuskeet.
"The Global Transpark, in
my opinion, is the most excit-
ing economical development
concept under study and de-
velopment anywhere in the
world Lancaster said.
Lancaster said the
Transpark will put eastern
N.C. on the map, as it is al-
ready gaining world-wide
publicity.
"In Thailand, for instance,
a Global Transpark is being
developed. They call it the
North Carolina experiment
he said. "All of that is pos-
sible because this institute, at
a very, very important time?
when regionalism was a dirty
word in eastern North Caro-
lina, saw the wisdom of put-

AmeriCorp applicants needed
Susan Schwartz
Staff Writer
This story contributes to an ar-
ticle printed in The East Carolin-
ian on October 11
By launching the AmeriCorps
program, President Bill Clinton
has called upon America's finest
resources ? its own citizens ? to
fix what is wrong with America.
Volunteers are needed to clean
up our environment, educate our
young and patrol our neighbor-
hoods to make them safei for ev-
eryone. ECU students can make a
difference by becoming
AmeriCorps members.
Students interested can apply
by calling the AmeriCorps hotline.
An operator will collect general
information about interested ap-
plicants and will send them an
information brochure with a re-
ferral form enclosed.
Students then fill out the refer-
ral form and send it back to the
Corporation for National Service.
The referral form allows applicants
to specify their geographic prefer-
ence, whether they are interested
in providing service in their own
neighborhood, state or region, or
any rural or urban area anywhere
in the United States.
Once the referral form is pro-
cessed by AmeriCorps, students
will receive a directory of the pro-
grams available. While
AmeriCorps is designed to be com-
munity-based and community-
driven, members work as part of
the AmeriCorps network toward
four national priorities in the ar-
eas of education, human needs,
public safety and environment.
Students applv directly to the
program that interests them and a
representative from that pro-
gram will call or write to notify
applicants of acceptance. Join-
ing AmeriCorps will be very
competitive, but also very re-
warding.
In exchange for sen-ice, the
AmeriCorps brochure says,
"Members will receive a liv-
ing allowance averaging $7,500
per year health care, child care
when needed; and an educa-
tion award of $4,725 per year
to finance their higher edu-

Wreaths of poppies adorn the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (Le Ton(
Beau Du Soblat Inconnu) under the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The
poppies are sold to recognize those who fought in past wars.
Stephanie Lassiter
News Editor
This weekend will host several
annual events including ECU's
Homecoming, the traditional Hal-
loween gala and the selling of
Buddy Poppies by the Veterans of
Foreign Wars (VFW).
Several times a year, groups like
the VFW sell poppies to raise money
for veterans and their families and
the families of deceased veterans.
The VFW holds its sale every year
during ECU homecoming week-
end. World War II veteran Hugh
McGowan, jr. believes this is an
ideal time to make students aware
of the importance of the poppy in
relation to the veterans.
"I wish the college students of
ECU would realize the importance
of the Veteran's Buddy Poppy
days he said.
In 1924, the Buddy Poppy was
copyrighted by the VFW. During
that time, the poppies were made
of red tissue paper by French
women who were hoping to rec-
ognize the blood shed by the sol-
diers. Today, the poppies are made
of a silky red material which is
more durable than the tissue pa-
per.
"The VFW brought the Buddy
Poppy over to America
.McGowan said.
Europeans continue to use
the poppy as a symbol of the
lives lost during the war.
Flanders Field in Belgium is the
resting place for thousands of
American soldiers. The poppies
grow in the field of graves. Like-
wise, "Le Tom Beau Du Soblat
Inconnu" (Tomb of the Un-
known Soldier) under the Arc
de Triomphe in Paris is adorned
by visitors with wreaths of pop-
pies.
"It means more to me repre-
senting my budd ies when I can't
go to Normandy McGowan
said. "There is no way to thank
them. All we can do is pray
McGowan, a Greenville na-
tive and resident, fought in
World War II as a reconnais-
sance non-commissioned officer
for a tank battalion attached to
the 45th Division. During D-
Day ceremonies held this sum-
mer on Normandy Beach,
McGowan's name was added
to a list of war participants.
The VFW will be selling the
poppies tomorrow and Satur-
day throughout Greenville. Pro-
ceeds go to benefit veterans and
their families.

The East Carolinian 3
History recalled in Nov.
Andy Turner
Staff Writer
Manv people have notions
of Native Americans that are
derived mainly from televi-
sion and movies. The East
Carolina Native American
Organization (ENCAO) will
trv to change some of those
preconceptions in November
during Native American
Heritage Month.
"Native Americans are ste-
reotyped by television as hav-
ing long, straight dark hair
and dark skin, but not all
Native Americans have those
same features said Kim
Sampson, a senior hospitality
management major and presi-
dent of ECNAO.
In November ECNAO has
tentative plans for activities de-
signed to promote awareness on
campus. These activities in-
clude a booth in Mendenhall, a
mini pow-wow, guest speakers,
a medicine well, pamphlets in
the dining halls and articles on
Native American culture and
customs in The East Carolinian.
ECNAO will be working along
with the Student Union during
Native American Heritage
Month.

"We want to educate the cam-
pus as a whole about the Native
American Heritage said Nikki
Eppes, a sophomore exercise and
sports science major and vice
president of ECNAO. "There are
a lot of things people don't un-
derstand. We just want a little
recognition
ECNAO was reorganized in
the spring of 1992. The group
began possibly as far back as
1971. Currently, there are be-
tween 10 and 15 members. Tribes
represented in ECNAO include
Cherokee, Lumbee, Coharie,
Haliwa-Soponi and Waccamaw-
Siouan.
There is a $10 yearly member-
ship fee, which can be paid $5 a
semester.
ECNAO is designed to pro-
vide fellowship for Native
American students enrolled at
ECU. The group also strives to
increase knowledge and aware-
ness of Native Americans on
campus and to serve as a source
of information about Native
Americans and Native Ameri-
can issues.
The group hopes Native
American Heritage Month will
be a success and that students
will benefit from the programs
that ECNAO conducts on cam-
pus.
"People think you are not a
true Indian unless you live in a
reservation or a teepee
Sampson said.
Sampson added that ECNAO
welcomes any new members.
"We are looking for new mem-
bers Sampson said. "If you
want to join just show interest.
Normally we put announce-
ments in The East Carolinian be-
fore meetings

Olympians get help
Drew Goettman
Staff Writer
The North Carolina Special
Olympics holds the Equestrian
Championships each October.
ECU senior xnne Johnson was a
member of the first group from
Pitt County to attend the event,
held this year in Fayetteville.
Johnson, a rehabilitation ser-
vices major from Kinston, N.C
was a horse-leader for 9-year-old
Mark Bradley. This year's eques-
trian competition featured ap-
proximately 60 participants from
North Carolina's 100 counties,
and Pitt County participants
brought home two bronze med-
als.
"It's the first time ever to have
a Special Olympics equestrian
team here in Pitt County said
Maria Bryant, who operates the
nonprofit GDJ (German Dressage
and Jumping) Challenge, Inc.
The GDJ Challenge, located in
the Greenville area, is a free pro-
gram specializing in rehabilita-
tive efforts that involve horse
riding with handicapped indi-
viduals. The GDJ Challenge spon-
sored the Special Olympics team
from Pitt County.
Mark Bradley, on a horse led
by Johnson, competed in the
Western Equitation class and
earned the bronze medal. Missy
Moore, 18, competed in the Hunt
Seat Equitation class (led on horse
by her mother) and brought home
Pitt County's second bronze
medal. There were approximately
a dozen entries in each of the two
classes.
Johnson said her involvement
with GDJ Challenge (and the Spe-
cial Olympics) all began with the
volunteer portion of her major.
Last spring, she was required to
volunteer for 30 hours in an orga-
nization connected with rehabili-
tative services.
Rehabilitation services majors
can choose from any human ser-
vice organization or social service
organization around the Green-
ville area for their required vol-
unteer experience in the field.
"We weren't really limited ?
just some area that would allow
us to get some experience
Johnson said. "I rode for about 10
years when I.was younger. I
thought it would be a good way to
combine horses, which I enjoy,
with working with people with
disabilities and helping them en-
joy riding
"Anne started working about a
year ago Bryant said. "She did
her volunteer work with me
and she just stuck with us. She
came back all the time
"That semester, I went over
there each Saturday morning,
three to four hours every morn-
ing Johnson said. "When that
was over in April, I continued.
Maria would call me ? 'could I
help with this or 'could I come
this weekend and do this We did
a circus one time in the Greenville
area, and we had a fund raiser for

Volunteering with the GDJ
Challenge might have been a
surprise for any other rehabili-
tati ve services major, but not for
Johnson. She knew what was in
store for those who work with
horses.
"It's usually a third working
with the kids, and the other two- ?
thirds is getting the horses ready ;
for the kids Bryant said. "You ;
always have to work with the
horses. It's the smallest amount
of time working actually with ?
the kids
"Most mornings, I get the ;
horses saddled up and ready for ;
Mark to ride Johnson said. "We
usually ride from 30 minutes to
an hour, and then I do other odd ?
jobs around the stable if I'm ;
needed feeding the horses, ;
cleaning up the stables. That's
mainly about it, just something !
Maria might need: 'We need to ?
fix this fence'or'We need to talk ;
about this that we're looking to ;
do ? can you help us?' Every ;
now and then, I might help with ;
another rider besides Mark !
"Oh, the kids love her !
Bryant said. "Anne is not here '?
every time, because now she's ?
got other things to do. Every ;
time she's here, the kids say
'Anne They really love her.
She's absolutely great ? she's a,
jewel
Most of Johnson's volunteer
hours have been spent working
with Bradley, both during and
after her credit hours. It comes
as no surprise that the Bradley
family wanted her involved
when the prospect of the Special'
Olympics arose.
"I really got involved in the
Special Olympics through Dr.
Bradley, who is Mark's dad
Johnson said. "Mark was riding
down at the farm he asked me
if I would be a part of the Special
Olympics, and that was in Au-
gust. They asked me ? since I
had worked with Mark before
? if I would be there as their
leader
"Anne had to go to a training
session to get qualified for the;

Drinking varies among races
African-Americans drink the least
(CPS) ? African-American
students drink alcohol less of-
ten than their white counter-
parts and goon drinking binges
far less frequently, according to
a new study released bv the Core
Institute of Southern Illinois
University.
The study found that black
students consume 1.8 drinks per
week, compared to an average
of 5.6 drinks a week for white
students. Black students sur-
veyed were also much less likely
to binge drink, or consume five
or more drinks in one sitting.
According to the study, 21M per-
cent of the black students sur-
veyed reported binge drinking
during the previous two weeks,
while 45.4 percent of the white
students admitted that they
went on a drinking binge.
"We were surprised to find
such a dramatic difference said
Phillip Meilman, director of the
counseling center at the College
of William & Mary and co-di-
rector of the Core Institute,
which studies alcohol use
among students nationwide.
"Black college students are
drinking at much lower levels
than white students. The num-
bers are obvious.
And while it's good news for
black students, we have to some-
how find a way to bring down
the level for white students as
well
Louisiana State University
student Sherri Robinson said
she doesn't drink as much as
most college students because
she doesn't have the time.
"If I'm not in class, I'm either
studying or at work she said,
"And if I go out on the week-
ends, I don't want to get that
messed up because I'll be a
waste the whole next day
But Robinson, an African-
American, said she isn't about
to make any major generaliza-
tions about why she drinks less
than most students on the Ba-
ton Rouge campus, especially
any based on race. "I see black
students and white students
drunk all the time so it's hard to
say she said. "People in college
drink. That's true for almost ev-
erybody
The Core Institute study was
taken in response to a recent re-
port on college drinking from the
Center of Addiction and Sub-
stance Abuse at Columbia Uni-
versity that said college drinking
was reaching epidemic levels.
That report has been disputed by
many in the field of alcoho1 con-
sumption research who say it
greatly exaggerates the problem.
"We realize the importance ot
all of our research, but we wanted
to see if the drinking results were
the same for all students
Meilman said. "When it comes to
alcohol abuse, it's hard to clas-
sify the college community be-
cause there are vast differences
in drinking levels by race
Mikel Daniels said he and his
friends at North Carolina State
University go out drinking on
the weekends, but usually take a
pass during the week. "It takes a
lot for me to do well in my
classes Daniels said "I mean, I
stud) a Int. I don't want to screw
up my grades because I'm out
getting drunk
Daniels' weekday-priority at-
titude is echoed by other African-
American students on the Core
Institute's survey. Fi r those stu-
dents that indicated they drank,
almost 25 percent of the white
students said that poor academic
performance was a result of their
alcoholic consumption, while only
13 percent of the black students
did.
1 rurty-two percent of the white
students say they miss class be-
cause ot drinking the night be-
fore, while 17 percent of black
students admit the same.
Why do black students drink
less1 Meilman isn't sure, but he
said mat whatever the reasons,
white students should follow their
example. "If we could bring the
level ot drinking tor white stu-
dents down to the level of black
students he says, "we would be
making tremendous progress

Students can
get debt help
(CPS) ? "Buv now, pay later"
may sound prettv good today.
But when von find yourself still
paying tot the pizza that you
gulped down in your freshman
dorm ? and it's two years after
vour college graduation, you
may think again, say credit card
counselors.
"It's difficult enough fora col-
lege grad to make ends meet,
without having to pay for pizzas
they polished off years ago said
Gerri Detweiler, author of The
Ultimate Credit Handbook.
But you can get help.
One of the first options, of
course is parents. Michelle
Bedell, 22, savs she is now sorry
she waited until she was in deep
credit trouble before talking to
her parents.
"I think it's important to have
a credit card, but really know
what you are getting into
Bedell says. "Take the time to
learn about interest and talk to
your mother. Make sure that you
have money every month to pay
it off.
"You can't use a credit card if
you don't have any money
If talking to your parents is
not an option, often a school's
financial aid office can help. And
mostcitieshavenon-profitcredit
counseling services affiliated
with the National Foundation for
Consumer Credit.
One is the Consumer Credit
Counseling Service (CCCS),
which has 200 offices nation-
wide.
"We are dedicated to helping
people out of credit difficulty
and helping with personal fi-
nances says Gary Stroth, di-
rector of CCCS in Los Angeles,
who estimated his office has seen
a 15-20 percent increase in col-
lege students seeking help in the
past few years.
Students, however, should
learn techniques to manage their
credit card usage before any
trouble begins.
"There's really nothing wrong
with credit says Stroth, adding
that CCCS offices hold free semi-
nars about credit management
at colleges nationwide. "The
problem is we really don't teach
students how to use it
aSrmrt college students will
get a credit card in college and
use it carefully, says Detweiler.
jThat way, they 11 graduate with
a good credit rating, but without
a leu of credit card bills.
If you are in trouble with
credit card debt, counselors can
act as an intermediary between
you and the credit companies
and help to work out reason-
able payment terms and pre-
vent long-term damage to your
credit rating. One condition of
these terms is that you destroy
your credit cards until you are
out ot debt.

(QS) ? An annual survev of
tuition and fee increases at
American colleges contains both
good and bad news for college
students.
First, the bad news: On aver-
age, tuition increased this year,
more than double the rate of in-
flation. Increases in tuition and
fees at American colleges and
universities rose by 6 percent,
according to a new study by the
College Board.
That means the average un-
dergraduate attending a private,
four-year college will be paying
S702 more for their education.
However, the good news is
that the tuition rates are increas-
ing at a lower rate than in past
years, indicating that many in-
stitutions are doing a better job
of holding the line on spiraling
college costs.
Still, the average college stu-
dent is not only paying more for
their education but is borrowing
more to cover costs, said Donald
Stewart, president of the College
Board.
Although this year's 6 percent
increase was the lowest in sev-
eral years, the survey indicates
th.it undergraduates are paying
anywhere from 553 to $702 more
for their education. At two-year
public schools, students are pay-
ing $53 more this year; students at
four-year public institutions are
shelling out an extra $151; stu-
dents at two-year private institu-
tions are paying $283 more; and
students at four-year private in-
stitutions are paying an estimated
increase of $702.
Stewart said as tuition and fees
continue to increase, more stu-
dents must turn to financial aid
for assistance.
Unfortunately, many students
are finding that the federal grant
programs are failing to keep pace
with rising tuition costs. The
HouseSenate education spend-
ing bill for 1995 freezes funding
for many student financial aid pro-
grams.
This means that many college
students are borrowing more
money to cover basic education
costs. According to Stewart, bor-
rowing in the Federal Family Edu-
cation Loans Program increased
by more than 40 percent in 1993-
94 over last year.
"The risk is as thebalance shifts
more toward loans and away from
grants, the most disadvantaged
students will look for options
other than college Stewart said.
"We have to look hard at the grow-
ing grant-loan imbalance and ask
ourselves how much we can rea-
sonably expect the poorest stu-
dents to borrow. One of the pur-
poses of a college education is to
help people create a better future,
not a deeply mortgaged future
While most colleges and uni-
versities are controlling costs, a
handful of both private and pub-
lic schools continue to raise tu-
ition by large amounts, causing
the national average to jump,
Stewart added.
"The fact remains that college
is still affordable for most stu-
dents he said. "Everyone has to
keep the issue of college costs in
perspective and not focus on the
few high-priced schools that mess
with the averages
So where is all the money go-
ing?
Despite the continuing in-
creases in tuition and fees, offi-
cials report that less money is go-
ing toward actual classroom learn-
ing than ever before.
"Low student-faculty ratios
translate into a large number of

Hunt alarmed
by violence
RDI
(AP) ? Gov. Jim Hunt didn't
know when he scheduled a stop at
Grimslev High School to launch a
campaign against school violence
that his message would hit so close
to home.
Hunt's visit Friday with about
150 shocked students, some weep-
ing, came just two days after a 16-
vear-old Grimsley High student
shot and wounded an assistant prin-
cipal before killing himself.
"I don't have any answers for
vou all a somber Hunt told stu-
dents in the school's auditorium.
"I'm the governor of the state, but 1
don't know anv better than you
why these things happen. But 1 want
you to know I care about you
On Wednesday, Nicholas
Atkinson shot and wounded Bill
Whites, assistant principal Bill
Whites in theshoulder with a 9 mm
handgun. Whites was treated at
Moses Cone Hospital and released.
After shooting Whites, Atkinson,
a lOth-grader who had been sus-
pended for smoking, walked 30
yards down the street and shot him-

self in the head.
Ironically, Hunt had planned
weeks ago to come to Grimsley on
Friday to launch a pubic awareness
campaign on school violence.
"Instead of that, I want to listen
to you Hunt told the students.
"One of the toughest thing?about
this is that people don't start taking
itseriouslv until it happens to them.
Then it's too late
Local school officials had asked
the governor to move his news con-
ference to another school to give
the students time to grieve. But the
students praised Hunt for coming
on Friday.
Human resources officer Steve
Roberts said theattention theshoot-
ing was getting could motivate stu-
dents, parents and teachers to work
together to rid their schools of weap-
ons.
"We're going to yell and holler
like we've never done before Rob-
erts told the students at the rally.

dent of the National Association

versities, "The administrative

ment regulationscontinues to sky-
rocket, and up-to-date labs and
computer facilitiescontinue to take
a large bite from academic bud-

Increased room andboara costs
also factor into the rising costs of
college. According to the College
Boarfl, students at private institu-
tions are paying an average of
$4,976 this vear for campus living,
up $188 form last year. Studentsat
public colleges and universities
are paying $3,826 this year for
room and board, $149 more than
last year.
James Appleberry, president of
the American Association of State
Colleges and Universities, said the
growing tuition burden for indi-
vidual students represents a failure
of the entire educational system.
"When the Higher Ed uca tion Act
was written in 1965, the idea was
that anyone should be able to at-
tend college regardless of his or her
economic status he said. "This
was based on the belief that educat-
ing citizens benefits the country as
a whole.
"Today, when institutions and
government continue to transfer
more of the cost to the students, the
original premise is in question. Edu-
cation becomes a product viewed
as only benefiting the person who
buys it, and tuition becomes a user
fee levied on the backs of students
"No, because if I wanted to hear mainstream
there are already many stations to choose from.
College radio should be diversity, not mainstream

Faulkner, who left ECU to
become the N.C. Secretary of
Revenue, reflected on 30 years
of service of RDI by giving
anecdotes about various staff
members and her memories
of the institute.
Faulkner grew up in nearby
Martin County, attended ECU
and later joined the staff.
"She brought to the univer-
sity a special individual tal-
ent for making people feel
good about themselves and
confident in their future said
Jim Lanier, vice chancellor for
institutional advancement.
"She came to RDI in 1982 as
the third director, and, under
her leadership, I think this
program began to move into a
period of maturitv. She has an
infectious personality and a
sparkling wit that wins friends
wherever she goes
Faulkner helped inaugu-
rate the umbrella approach to
regional development, while
helping faculty members stay
focused on their mission.
"The service area of the Re-
gional Development Institute,
as it was established by the
Economic Development
Agency, was identified as the
32 counties east of 1-95
Faulkner said. "A previous
professor put together a grant
and applied for one of those
federal grants to establish a
university-based service
agencv that would concen-
trate on extending the services
of the university into the re-
gion

AmeriCorps service time is
typically full time for a one to
two year term. Full time is a pe-
riod of 1,700 hours of service over
nine months to a year. Some
members will serve part time for
a minimum of 900 hours over a
two-year period. Students who
are still in school can extend for a
third year of service in some in-
stances.
People of different ages and
backgrounds are welcome to ap-
ply. To qualify, students must be
at least 17 years or older. In some
instances, 16 year-olds will be
able to apply for specific youth
programs. Members must also
be a U.S. citizen or legal resident,
and in some instances, a high
school graduate.

The Least Carolinian
Students, faculty and
staff members can all cel-
ebrate ECU's new registra-
tion process, which has
been described by many as
the cutting edge of technol-
ogy-
The new registration
process has no waiting and
no busy phone lines, all you
have to do is drop your de-
sired schedule off at the
registrar's office and pick it
up one week later. The of-
fice has hired 500 tempo-
rary faculty in order to
avoid the normal confusion
students may encounter.
'I'm so delighted
said Elda Ladee. a house-
keeper. "Maybe now I
won't get knocked down
when I unlock the doors
during registration
The new system was
designed through com-
bined efforts of all admin-
istrative offices on campus.
Faculty and staff worked
closely together for years
before unveiling the pro-
cess.
Departments are now
planning to follow in the
footsteps of other schools
and offer enough classes for
all students, w ith the excep-
tion of freshmen.
"I will do anything 1
can do to make students
more comfortable. I will
fight and scratch for new
technology at ECU said
Chancellor Richard Eakin.
"It is important that ECU
try to be a step above the
rest
Various offices do-
nated money to pay for the
extra employees and Chan-
cellor Eakin said he would
pay the difference if more
money is needed.
"I'll sell my house and
my car, it's the least I can
do. What does it matter
when student were standing
out in the cold and rain at
all hours of the night?"
Eakin said.
Previously, student
have had to wait in frustrat-
ing lines and seek out un-
known professors for spe-
cial permission to enter a
class. This will no longer be
a problem. ECU has moved
to a complete honor system.
"We trust our stu-
dents. From now on. if a
student believes he or she
can perform and achieve
class requirements, they
can just sign up for the
class said Fatch Ance,
registration operations man-
ager. "Students pay a lot of .
money to come here and
should be given fast and
courteous service when
signing up for classes.
Student may pick up
schedules according to class
and alphabet each day next
week. Every student will
receive a scheduled time

The Least Carolinian
In what can only be
described as a wondrous
example of faith in the as-
sembly instructions, the
construction intended to ex-
pand Joyner Library has led
to a recreation of the Old
Country here in Greenville.
Instead of adding 164. 000
square feet of space to ac-
commodate an increase in
student enrollment, ECU is
the proud ow ner of a per-
fect replica of the Eiffel
Tower.
"I can't really explain
it said Edward Midler,
foreman on the Joyner ex-
pansion project. "We got
about halfway through and
someone pointed out that
we weren't really building
something that looked like
meeting rooms and book-
shelf space
"While I think artistic
endeavors have their place
on campus, this just isn't
what we paid for, " said a
chagrined Chancellor
Eakin today, which was
scheduled as the deadline
for the construction.
"We always said
ECU had a little of every-
thing for everybody, but we
didn't expect to offer an op-
portunity to recreate great
international architecture
When asked if he
liked the structure, the
chancellor answered: "Oh.
I love it. It's classic and cer-
tainly eye-catching but I
think it's safe to say that
when the voters approved
the bond referendum to pay
for the expansion, they did
not expect for their money
to take this shape
Midler said he sus-
pects that when one of his
assistants went into Joyner
to inspect new blueprints
for the construction, he mis-
takenly picked up the new
library acquisition. French
Architecture In Depth, in-
stead of the blueprints.
The book, with de-
tailed schematics of famous
French structures, looked
so similar to the library
plans that no one noticed
the discrepancies before
construction was well un-
der way.
Midler said the com-
pany responsible would
build the additional library
space next to the nouveau
tower at no cost.
"It's the least we could
do, "he said. "Besides, we
can't tear it down without
threatening the existing li-
brary and you can't keep all
those books on the glass el-
evators now, can you?"

Bert, Ernie out of closet
Staff Reports
The Least Carolinian
Yes folks, iust when
you thought you had
heard it all, another crazy
thing happens. To the
many of you who missed
the Okra Winnifred
show, you missed hear-
ing the story of two of the
biggest known stars
around.
The life and legacy
of Bert and Ernie from
Sesame Street has put
parents in an uproar, and
kids not knowing what to
think.
After seeing Bert at
the infamous club, The
Limelight, everyone
knew that he had gotten
on a one-way train out of
Sesame Street. When
Okra asked him what he
was doing there, he re-
plied that he wanted to
expand his horizons, and
learn some new skills to
take home to Ernie.
The audience looked
at Bert with eyes of won-
der and jaws to the floor.
What did he mean by "tak-
ine home some new skills
to Ernie?"
This is when Okra's
show and her ratings went
through the roof. Bert and
Ernie came out of the
closet.
Yes, Bert and Ernie,
childhood heroes to mil-
lions, told the world that
they were gay and proud.
They had been lovers for
the last 12 years.
When a disgruntled
audience member asked
what they would do if they
were asked to leave the
show, they replied that
they would fight it tooth
and nail, and that they se-
riously doubted that it
would happen.
Ernie went on to ex-
plain that being gay does
not make himself or Bert
any different than any of
the other muppets, it just
gives them another angle.
He also went on to
say that parents and little
children should not be
alarmed and think that
thev are going to become
gay by watching them.
"Sesame Street is a
way for kids to learn and
a way for them to explore
different cultures and
lifestyles Ernie said.
Bert and Ernie think that
by coming out of the
closet, they will expand
the minds of millions, and
teach people a thing or
two about homosexuality.
They also think that
adults and children alike
need to be exposed to this
lifestyle, because they be-
lieve it is not something
that will just go away.
Okra said at the end
of the show that she was
"delighted to have two
such great stars be so open
and honest about their
lives and "it was nice to
know that muppets have
lives outside the television
too

members the symphony orchestra of Eu-
reka, Ca balked at the idea of performing
the classic "Peter and the Wolf because it
displays the wolf in an unflattering light.
Some quit the symphony, some thought it
was silly, most were confused. What, they
wondered, would be next? The answers
weren't long coming.
Last week, the American Really, Re-
ally Nice Wolves Organization (ARRWO)
filed a class action suit in California against
Little Golden Books for disuibuting propa-
ganda against them.

have taken a beating for years. Little Red.

ARRWO for defamation of character.

said "Most dogs aren't as healthy as they
could be, but to suggest that all dogs are
sickly is ruinous to the image that we as dogs
are trying to project.
"I mean, we want to nip this in the old
bud before it continues further. We're not
having a cow over it
BARK was immediately sued by the
Hell's Cows for slander.

have to suggest that they are being burdened
with bovine children to suggest that they

Fools remove all doubt by speaking out
by Patrick Hinson
The feminist movement has
seen its better days. Today the
group that once represented the
plight of millions is facing a
crucial turning point. It seems to
have lost control of its message
and its image. This rift has been
created by two key factors: the
leaders have lost touch with the
women they are supposed to
represent, and primary party
objectives have been abandoned
for substandard causes.
In an insightful article,
Feminism's Identity Crisis, Wendy
Cramer notes that "The popular
image of feminism as a more or
less united quest for androgynous
equality is at least ten years out of
date
American women still feel the
need for a strong women's
movement but an outstanding 86
percent reject the feminist label.
Ask any woman why she's
not a feminist and its probable
that she will tell you: I like being
a woman; I respect the right of a
woman to stay at home and raise
children if she wants to; I don't
view men acting as gentlemen as
a form of social control; and I
don't hate men.
The reasons seem to sound
legitimate, but they are exactly
what theextreme sisters who have
come to define the movement
have campaigned against.
The extremist sisters have
tragically changed the battle cry
of "lama woman, I am strong, "
to the neurotic "I am a woman, I
am oppressed, victimized, and
powerless Mainstream women
realize that this is not the right
way to approach getting equality.
History has shown that the best
way to demonstrate that a belief
works is to prove it. Simple laws
will not change ways of
thinking, proof will.
For example, during the
1960's, civil rights legislation
was passed to advance the
rights of minorities. This was
beneficial from a legal
standpoint, actual public
opinion did not change until
time allowed the assertions to
be proven.
Mainstream women do not
believe that it is necessary to
work against men to achieve
the goals. Extremists fail to
realize that it is far better to
work with men rather than
abuse and condemn them.
The second cause of
separation in the feminist
movement is that there has
been an abandonment of party
objectives for fuzzy-headed
ventures into political
correctness.
In order to curb the rate of
sexual violence towards
women in America, we have
adopted polices regarding
consent, and most people
regard this to be a good thing.
But in the case of one small
college in Ohio, the extremists
have blown it entirely out of
proportion. In short, the rules
state that all sexual contact
must be consensual.
Consent must be obtained
verbally at every stage of a
physical relationship (i.e may
I unbutton this, may I take this
off, may I touch that.) Will
students soon be required to
turn in well written documents
of all their amorous activities
By Chris Arline
at the end of each semester.
The truth is that working
women who still make only 76
cents to every male dollar
realize that the true power rests
in capital. To coin a phrase
from the Republican National
Campaign in 1992, " Its
economics stupid I once
heard an ignorant sexist state
that women can have all the
rights they want because men
still own everything anyway.
While this statement is
certainly lacking taste, to say
the least, it does have some
truth to it. The true power in
society has always rested in the
hands of the class with the
higher socioeconomic status.
Until women achieve equal
economic status it will be
extremely difficult to achieve
a level playing field.
The feminist movement has
long held a respected place in
America, and it is a tragedy to
see it falter so badly after
coming so far and doing so
much.
Women cannot afford to
disenfranchise their extremist
sisters for the few things that
differentiate their objectives.
The extremists cannot
afford to alienate themselves
from the very movement they
claim to represent.
Through a close
cooperative team effort, the
two can once again pursue the
worthy goal of socioeconomic
equality.
It's time to rekindle the
flame and reclaim the saying
"I am a woman, I am strong
Divided you will fall.
Ever notice that there are
certain issues you really just can't
discuss with your friends? You
know, stuff like religion, politics,
and abortion, that kind of really
hairy stuff that begins as
conversation and ends with that
mutual feeling of wanting to go
for each other's throats.
Even when we achieve
these higher levels of education.
can't we sit down and just try to
reach some form of agreement on
issues that areas far-reaching and
important to all of us as a
community, instead of just
throwing gas on the fire as we get
angrier and angrier because the
other person refuses to
understand? Communication
between human beings can all
too often become a very
complicated and annoying
undertaking.
Everyone has their own
stance on things, and it is natural
that we feel strongly that what
we believe in is the right thing,
the only thing. Sure, we feel that
we're pretty liberal and open-
minded for the most part, but the
truth is we're really not. We all
need something to believe in, to
hold on to, to make us feel that we
are balanced and intelligent
beings. We pick up our beliefs,
unfortunately, from our parents
in the beginning, as much as many
of us would like to deny, and
then we pick up and hold the
things we believe in and agree
with as time goes by.
When people come along
mat have a different viewpoint,
and one that they adamantly
stand behind, well, we often think
they must be idiots. Some idiot
must have drilled the wrong
information into their heads.
Then, usually, we do our best to
de-program them, to attempt
make them see the error of their
ways. What fools we are.
I do my best to avoid
these touchy subjects when at all
possible. I believe the best policy
is to remain silent and let
everyone else duke it out and
make fools of themselves as they
try to prove that theirs can be the
only logical, moral, or intelligent
stance, and the rest of us are just
flat-out wrong.
Take politics for example.
Look at the lengths that Walter B.
Jones and Martin Lancaster are
going to try to make us vote for
them.
One might start to fear
that their example and the
examples of most every other
politician running for office today
might rub off on the younger
generation, those students
running for SGA offices at
colleges and universities. Wait,
no, that would never happen
would it? The younger generation
must surely see how ridiculous
that looks, right? Guess again.
I was nothing more than
embarrassed watching campaign
for SGA president this year
(although no more than I was last
year, I suppose, which wasn't any
different). I felt like I was reading
abouttwo kindergartners fighting
over a toy on a playground
somewhere.
Two greedy little brats is
what it all came down to, and do
you think we didn't see it? I feel
close to the same thing now,
watching the JonesLancaster
battle. The campaigners, by
avoiding almost any reference to
what they can and have done
positively themselves, focus only
on what a lying, stealing,
incompetent moron their
opponent is (as if to say, "he's
more of one than I am"). The
whole thing, the whole process of
political campaigning (and the
fact that its allowed - the level of
mudslinging - that is) just makes
me pretty sick and ashamed that
even today in this advanced age
we fail so miserably to
communicate effectively.
Politics are just one area
though. You can choose almost
any topic you can think of and,
with time, we will tend to
disagree and that level of
disagreement will grow. And as
that level grows, we seem to
resort to more and more
primitive actions and measures
to achieve the prize that we now
so desire, to win the argument.
All too often, in the end,
we even end-up killing each
other over something that almost
surely we could have agreed
upon, or at least compromised
on, if we could have kept a level
head for a while longer. At every
level of human interaction, in our
own homes, to the street gangs
in our every town, to the Arab
militants who blow up buses and
buildings full of innocent people,
to the superpower leaders who
decide the fate of thousands if
not millions of otherwise
innocent lives over something
that could have been talked out,
we often make the most
unintelligent choice when given
the chance to do something right
or wrong.
Being quiet, I know, is

I am baffled as to why WZMB canceled the New

To the Editor:
Since the beginning of the semester, several of
the fraternities on campus have commented on the
lack of attendance of some of the sororities during
pre-planned socials and events that have been
scheduled to take place.
A lot of fraternities go to a lot of time consuming
hard work, not to mention going deep into their
expense account, to plan these socials and tailgate
activities in which very few of the sisters show up. I
am not trying to criticize any certain sorority, but all
the fraternities would love to see a better turn out
after we put out our efforts into creating these events.
For those of you who take the time to show up sic
we thank you for coming.
This commentary not only applies to the sororties
but to the fraternities as well. If you guys get invited
toa sorority function and if you have the opportunity
to go, just try your best to show up. After all, these
girls go to a lot of trouble and expense to organize these
events also. During my years in the Greek system at
ECU sic 1 have seen the best response of attendance
by a group of people in which many brothers and
sisters try to teach and provide guidance to,sic our
very own pledges. A large majority of the pledges
seem to be very excited and interested in attending
different pre-planned events and do a great job
attending. Maybe if we watch and listen a little more
we can learn more from them than we thoughrsic
The main point that I feel should be emphasized is
that a good fraternity or sorority should be composed
of diversity and individuality in which builds a
stronger unity. To sum it all up, don't let the fraternity
or sorority think for you, think for the fraternity or
sorority or just think for yourself.

Lifestyle
Come home this weekend
Brandon Waddell

Assistant Lifestyle Editor
"A Drop in the Bucket" is just
wliat it claim to be: a very tiny drop
in the great screaming bucket of
American media opinion. Take it as
you will.
Hope comes back from the
grave for the fourth time to ruin
Bo's love life. The question at
hand: is she really Hope?
Victoria marries her mother's
love toy who could have been
her half brother.
Charlene has three different
personalities, one of which is a
very funny hooker.
Vivian implants herself with
her arch enemy's eggs in order to
steal away her husband (who
used to be in love with Vivian).
These stories are of course fic-
tional, but events such as these
do happen everyday if you tune
into the world of soap operas.
You would think that after years
of crazy off the wall story lines,
and people constantly coming
back from the grave, the Ameri-
can public would eventually get
tired of it all and tune in to some-
thing a little more "educational
Well, that certainly is not the
case. Soap Operas have been a
way of life for many people for
the last 25 to 30 years. House-
wives started tuning in after little
Tommv was down for a nap or
while doing the laundry, and the
addiction was passed down to
Iheirchildrenand grandchildren.
; I will admit that I tune in to
Days of Our Lives" occasion-
ally, but before I came to school,
k was a show that I almost never
missed (thanks to our VCR). I
began watching "Days as it is
affectionately called by its fans,
when I was still in the womb. My
mom has watched the show since
its first episode, and thus passed
the tradition down to me. My
mom and her friends were so
involved in the show that I be-
gan to think that the people on
the TV were part of my family as
well.
In some cases, soap operas
can bring families together. My
dad and I, who have never really
had verv much in common, talk
about the latest power-trips by-
Vivian, and the other scandals
on "Davs I find it amusing the
times I call home, and my dad
will pick up the phone and ask
me if I have been watching the
show and what I think of what's
going on. It's great when he talks
about that instead of harping on
grade point averages and the re-
sponsibilities of being in school.
One thing about soap operas
that I learned in my first year of
college is that you can't escape
them. Many times when I would
come home in the afternoons
from class, every room I walked
by had a soap or. People were
popping popcorn and throwing
it at the screen when their char-
acters weren't doing what they
were supposed to, or when some-
thing was amiss. In fact, a few
people I know scheduled their
classes around their favorite soap
because they didn't want to wait
until late afternoon to see it on
tape.
So, what is the big appeal of
soap operas? What makes people
want to skip class and skip to a
j place right in front of the TV to
j watch them? Personally, I think
I soaps allow people to escape the
clutches of reality without using
mind altering drugs. House-
wives started watching to pass
the time, but when the people
dressed up in their fancy clothes
and went to their high class
shindigs, it made many female
watchers teel more glamorous
and a part of what was happen-

Manv people at ECU look upon
Homecoming as being the single
biggest event during the school
year; this year will be no excep-
tion, it the ad ministration, alumni,
clubs and groups have anything
to do about it.
"Years of Shared Visions"
events will be held all this week to
promote school spirit in prepara-
tion for the football game at 2 p.m.
on Saturday against the Univer-
sity of Cincinnati Bearcats.

14 area high schools will be com
peting for plaques and trophies.
Floats for the homecoming pa-
rade are made by clubs, fraternities
and sororities on campus who
worked diligently on these tor
weeks in preparation forSaturdav's

much to come out for on a Saturday

7) will be televising the event for the
second year in a row.

ing this year will be the crowing of

All these films contain many tan-
gible attributes, and a few intan-
gible ones, that combine to make
them wonderful motion pic-
tures. They all have enough
originality to obviate the
viewer's concerns about cliches
and they all have the able hand
of a quality director keeping the
tale focused.
The newest Hollywood con-
tender for inclusion into the
circle of great romantic comedies
is a Norman Jewison Moon-
struck) film called Only You.
Many of the intangible qualities
cannot be accounted for, but it is
the plethora of tangible ones that
doom this picture to obscurity.
Only You begins as an 11-
year-old named Faith (played as
an adult 14 years later by Marisa
Tomei) finds the name of her
destined spouse through a Ouija
board. The name of her destined
lover is Damon Bradley and
Faith patiently waits for him to
appear in her life. Unfortunately
Faith finds Dwayne, a podiatrist
with no charisma, and agrees to
marry him.
Ten days before her wedding
an old friend of Dwayne's calls
and tells Faith that Damon Brad-
ley phoned. Faith swoons and
then decides she must rush to
the airport (Damon is flying to
Italy) to meet Damon.
Damon's plane leaves as Faith
arrives so she books the next
plane to Venice, dragging her
sister-in-law Kate (Bonnie Hunt
in a charming performance).
From then on Only You stays in
Italv while Faith tries to track
down her fated Romeo. Though
the scenery is lovely, thanks in
large part to the cinematogra-
phy of Sven Nykvist (who
worked closely with Ingmar
Bergman), the story is too vapid
to enjoy.
Although Cinderella stories
are inherently unbelievable,
some grain of truth propels the
characters. In Enchanted April the
truth is that the women lead dull
lives and need some magic to
enrich those lives; in Sleepless in
Seattle'Meg Ryan desperately
wants a Hollywood romance and
finds one through the media of
radio; in It Could Happen to You
Nicholas Cage's integrity drives
all his actions and therefore the
film.
In Only You the truth for which
the main character searches is
one she learned from a child-
hood game. The setup itself be-
lies credibility and therefore
undermines all that transpires
after it. Faith's character never
gets developed. The reasons for
her adherence to her misguided
belief in a Ouija board are never
clarified. Her entire search seems
to occur only to sell movie tick-
ets instead of touching the
viewer.

Janet Speaks French
The Planet Janet
m m
Janet Speaks French is an eccen-
tric five member alternative rock
band based out of New York City.
For some reason this band seems to
be uniquely tied to the cultist world
of underground 'zines and pseudo
comics. The band claims to have
been locked into a never-ending
battle with the evil physicist Dr
Enrico Mandini and his masters) n
chronizer. This battle is said to have
taken place in one of the many alter-
nate universes affected by foul syn-
chronized music go figure.
Must of the 16 tracks contained on
Planet lane, the group's latest release,
are led bySeanO'Sullivan, with Dave
Stern leading four of the 16.
When the second track, "River to
Mv Soul first starts out, it'll remind
you of that old REM tune "Orange
Crush It's almost as if REM them-
selves are playing this one. "World
on Wire which is about the closest
this band comes to true metal, would
be better-received minus the strain in
Sean's voice. At times this becomes
an identifying characteristic through-
out the CD.
Without a doubt the most pro
nounced instrument in this band is
Chad Sonenberg's guitar. Chad is
capable of creating sporadic riffs
which could be described as spacy
and nerve moving. Incidentally the

Downset
Lies
When Rage Against the Ma-
chine unexpected! v became suc-
cessful on the popular music
charts, I wondered how long it
would take for their influence
to show up in other bands. I'm
guessing there are a bucket tuil
o! Rage-type bands springing
up all over the place, espec ially
with the pseudo-punk revival
and the public acceptance of all
that corporate America sees as
alternative. I submit Downset as
the first obvious Rage-influ-
enced band.
Downset are from that capitol
of mayhem and destruction, Los
Angeles. The first song on their
self-titled debut CD is full of ref-
erences to their hometown. "An-
ger" is an indictment of the
L.A.P.D. and according to the
lyrics, they are responsible for
the death of the lead singer's
father. Many of their songs are
about some typeof human rights
violation committed by either
the L.A.P.D. or the LS. govern-
ment. "My American Prayer" is
also in this same vein. It has the
standard accusations of geno-
cide and enslavement, but moves
more into the realm of trying to
figure out what the real problem
is. Lead singer Rev Oropeza
screams "Man's diversity is
America's greatest enemy " I rue

Here we see the boys from Widespread Panic yukking it up at the reservoir. Their talent has taken
them from being mere local favorites to regional stardom and a national recording contract.
Daniel Willis
Staff Writer
Widespread Panic just released
a very unique album titled "Ain't
Life Grand It includes a lot of
variety. I definitely can't say that it
sounded just like the past three
Widespread albums.
The first song, titled "Little Kin
was a lot harder than their usual
material. It was kind of strange
with "Little Kin" as the first song.
I wondered what the rest of the
record was going to sound like but
I soon found out that I couldn't
use one song to identifv the entire
album.
The next track, "Airplane"
started out very slow, but got pro-
gressively faster. It spoke of the
reluctance to travel when it's ob vi-
ouslynecessary.Guitarist John Bell
said, "The song was written on the
wav to a real airplane being wa i ted
for
One of the more psychedelic
tracks on the album was "Raise
the Roof It was a verv mellow
song that featured soft bongos and
acoustic melodies. Bassist Dave
Schools said, "It was such a mellow
and moodv song, and the waj u e
plaved it had a combination of ten-
tativeness and spookiness We
wanted to keep that mood
The next song, "Junior changed
the pace immediately. It was prettv
hard, and featured guitar leads that
seemed to go on forever. The lTii
dealt with childhood issues, but thev
weren't very impressive Thev were
relatively simple lyrics. But the mu-
sic was very intense.
One of the moreinteresting songs
was titled "L.A It was entirely in-
strumental. But not the kind of in-
strumental that you might expect
from Widespread. It was more like
fusion. "L.Awas probably theeasi-
est song to listen to on the album.
Thev exhibited incredible versatil-
ity with this song.
The last two tracks on the album
were "Fishwater" and "Jack Thev
sounded most like the traditional
Widespread songs that were fea-
tured on previous albums such as
"Space Wrangler" and "Every
da) Ihevhad moreota Athen's-
musk feel.
Strangelv enough, both
"Fishwater" and Jack" came from
the original demos. School said,
"We kept 'Jack' because Mike was
in love with his guitar solo and he
never plays it the same way
twice Bell said, Fishwater' was
born on stage; we've played it for
years
Many times bands trv to redi-
rect their music to create a differ-
ent effect, and it just doesn't work
out, while other bands might con-
tinuously plav the same worn-out
format. But Widespread Panic has
definitely progressed to another
level with this album. Bell said, "I
feel good about the progression of
our albums because every one has
been more of a group effort. More
of a "bandness' is coming out. It's
another year; we're a little older.
VTiat we do ? improvisation in a
rockand roll, R&B format?we've
been doing a lot and we're getting
better
Can 'Chicago Hope' to beat ER' at new time?
(AP) ? Maybe you think
"ER" stands for "Emergency
Room
Wrong, doc. "ER" stands for
"Everything's Rosy
Plenty rosy for "ER's" An-
thony Edwards, who plays
emergency-room resident Dr.
Mark Greene in the NBC hos-
pital drama, airing at 10 p.m.
EDT Thursdays.
A guy who served as Tom
Cruise's doomed co-pilot in the
feature "Top Gun who had a
recurring role as the
hyperallergic "Bubble Man" on
"Northern Exposure now, lo
and behold, Edwards is slicing
and dicing his way to stardom
on his hot new doctor series.
"It's the hardest thing I've
ever done says the 32-year-
old actor ? "but in a fun way
So what's the hardest part?
"Putting on your rubber
gloves at the same time you're
saying your lines
What's the most fun part?
"Saying things like 'ven-
tricular tachycardia' and
'Babinski as in Babinski re-
flex: If the patient's toe bends
back when vou stroke the sole of
the foot, that means ix-nay with
the ain-bray
Of course, another big new
Chicago-based doctor show set
up practice in the same time slot
this fall. CBS' "Chicago Hope"
stars Adam Arkin and Mandy
Patinkin as world-class surgeons
at a world-class medical center

tumble "ER" docs can only
dream about.
NBC's "ER" and CBS' "Chi-
cago Hope" represent TV's big-
gest medical breakthrough since
NBC's "Dr. Kildare" and ABC's
"Ben Casey" virtually invented
the genre in 1961, made instant
heart-throbs of Richard Cham-
berlain and Vince Edwards ?
and even inspired a teenybopper
hit song ("Dr. Kildare! Dr. Casey!
You are wanted for consulta-
tion").
Those two medics co-existed
happily, Casey on Monday
nights, Kildare on Thursdays. In
that more innocent era, the net-
works weren't so quick to aim
similar series at each other and
risk neutralizing them both. Such
strategy was left to nations with
nuclear arsenals.
But this year, CBS fired
"Hope" at NBC's "ER NBC
fired back. Instant cliche: "duel-
ing doctors
As everybody knows, "ER"
(which also stars George
Clooney, Sherry Stringfield,
Noah Wyle and Eriq LaSalle)
prevailed from the very first
round. This gave rise to another
instant cliche ? "CBS blinks
? when the so-called Eye Net-
work quickly moved "Hope" an
hour earlier on Thursdays, to 9
p.m. EDT. The next week,
"Hope" vaulted from 59th to
31st place. "ER" remained a
Top 10 fixture.
The showdown had lasted
all of two weeks. Yet the no-
tion persists ? among TV crit-
ics, at least ? that a blood feud
remains to be settled, and that
when the dust clears, only one
of those two shows should be
left standing.
It's only sporting that this
should be so. Except this isn't
sports, it's drama.
"What I hear from our writ-
ers is, they're so busy just try-
ing to create good drama

'Mad About You' is not so mad after all
?P) sk anyone who
works on "Mad About You"
where they get their ideas and
nobody will admit they're se-
cretly taping the conversations
of millions oi married couples.
But that's exactl) what most
of their studio audience believes.
Thev ve forfeited a Friday
night to ciime to a taping of their
lives ? or, more accurately, the
lives of Paul and Jamie
Buchman, the Everycouple from
New York who are the focus of
the NBC sitcom.
The woman warming up the
audience asks how many people
think the show is about them A
wave of hands shoots into the
air.
Paul Reiser is dodging in and
out of the crew's way, sipping
Evian and shaking hands, while
the theme song he wrote plays
for the crowd. Helen Hunt is read-
ing lines, keeping largely to her-
self while a hairdresser flits
about. Reiser's real-life wife,
Paula, is chatting on the side-
lines.
But once the cameras roll,
something bizarre happens ?
Reiser and Hunt are echoing
tights, reconciliations and con-
versations you and your spouse
probably had last night, or last
year.
We wanted it to feel more
like life than it did television
savs Reiser, the star, co-creator
and co-producer. "People come
in a little deeper with vou, be-
cause they relate to you more. So
it's very much what we hoped to
do, and it's gratifying when it
happens
lad About You which airs
at 8 p.m. EDT Thursdavs, has
started out its third season in im-
pressive fashion: it nearly cracked
the Nielsen top 10 in recent rat-
ings, coming in 12th. Last year, it
hovered around No. 30 among
prime-time shows.
The series' art-imitates-life
style frequently has been com-
pared to that of another, even
more successful NBC Thursday
comedy, "Seinfeld" ? something
"Mad's" makers accept with
equanimity.
"The first wave is compari-
sons. The second vvae is ques-
tions about the comparisons
says Reiser. "It's.not really an
issue
Executive producer Danny
Jacobson, who co-created "Mad
About You" with Reiser, isn't
complaining either.
"I love being mentioned in the
same breath as 'Seinfeld " he
says, adding that such compari-
sons mean "there's people out
there doing good stuff on TV
It seems no detail is negligible
when it comes to creating a sense
of realism. One set decorator de-
cided to replace the bag of dog
food sitting in a kitchen corner
because he thought theBuchmans
would teed their beloved mutt,
Murra-v, a better brand
And the actors and writers are
devoted to duplicating the ca-
dence or everyday speech. s
Hunt's Jamie makes dinner,
Reiser moves in and out of the
kitchen, talking to her, interrupt-
ing, absent-mindedly changing
the subject.
At times, he talks around the
business card he's using to pick
at something caught in his teeth.
She works a screaming tirade
around the theatrically perilous
job of tearing off cheap
pantyhose.
"In real life, you never stand
in the middle of the room and
talk to each other. Ever. You
shout from another room,
you're busy doing something
and you cut each other off
Reiser savs. "And in copying
those rhythms, vou have to do
a lot more work. You have to
stage differently, you have to
memorize lines differently
If you ask Reiser about the
question raised in last season's
closing episode ? will the
Buchmans have a baby? ? he
answers with a bit of personal
experience.
"The answer is, we're talk-
ing about it. As characters,
we're talking about it. It's ex-
actly what's going on in my
lite
Heller's story is no Catch-22
(APi ? In 1470, Paramount
Pictures released a film version
of the classic anti-war novel
C.itcli-22. Author Joseph Heller
had little to do with the pro-
duction, but he met with direc-
tor Mike Nichols before shoot-
ing began.
"We had dinner and he was
talking about the book and what
he wanted do in the film
Heller recalled. "I had to smile
to myself.
"I was smiling because he
was talking about those char-
acters as if they were flesh and
blood. But they're not. They're
just characters in a novel
Nichols wasn't alone in
thinking otherwise.
For millions of readers, the
exploits of Capt. John Yossarian
and the rest of that unfortunate
World War II bomber squad-
ron seemed not so much larger
than life, but part of life itself.
Could anybody forget the
elusive Major Major, who only-
permitted visitors to his office
when he wasn't there, or the en-
terprising Milo Minderbinder
and his chocolate-covered cot-
ton!
Started in 1953 and published
eight years later, Catch-22 antici-
pated the disillusion in Ameri-
can society brought on by Viet-
nam and Watergate. The title
alone became a way of saying
the world was insane and the
only hope for escape was by go-
ing crazy ? which, as the good
Colonel Korn would point out,
was proof vou were normal af-
ter all.
Those characters lived on in
reader's minds. Did Yossarian,
last seen evading the knife of
Nately's whore, succeed in his
mad rush to freedom? Did Chap-
lain Tappman ever get over his
ision of a naked man in a tree?
Heller, interviewed recently
in Manhattan, said he didn't
think much about it ? at least
until a few years ago.
"I found myself thinking not
so much about the characters,
but about the idea of doing a
novel, set in the present, taking
very much from my own experi-
ence. And my experience in-
cluded a relationship with Catch-
22 and the characters said the
71-year-old author, who brings
back Yossarian, the still-haunted
chaplain and a handful of others
in the novel Closing Time.
"I remember waking up with
a thought in my mind and writ-
ing it down. The note was: In
the middle of the second week,
Yossarian began dreaming of his
mother and he knew again he
was going to die I began to
think about Yossarian. I knew
he would be living and would
be about the same age as me
Set in present-day New York,
Closing Time is Heller's mellow-
est work, and his bleakest. It con-
trasts the optimism of Yossarian,
now wealthy and involved with
a nurse, with a world that seems
unlikely to outlive him very long.
While the cover of Closing
Time bills it as "the sequel to
Catch-22 Heller'scurrent novel
is only loosely connected to his
famous first book. Many new
characters have been introduced
and the mood shifts between
social satire and melancholy re-
flection.
"I did not want to do a Catch-
22 redux said Heller.
"It wasn't going to have doz-
ens and dozens of young men. It
was going to be more about
growing old, where you have a
number of friends you don't see
very often. There wuld be less
physical activity, as it is in nor-
mal life
This is a book about the gen-
eration that thought of "the war"
as World War II and not Viet-
nam.
It's about illness and death
and long-term relationships. It
looks back on the settings of
Heller's childhood, his years in
the service and the jobs he held
before writing Catch-22.

NC band enjoys corrosion
PHILADELPHIA (AP) ?
School was not Pepper
Keenan's forte. But he grew up
plaving writing games with a
group of word-happy friends.
That's how he learned to love
manipulating language, and
putting it to good use as singer,
guitarist and chief lyricist for
the hard-core band Corrosion
of Conformity.
"We used to write stuff all
the time the feisty Keenan
says. "I would write a para-
graph and a friend of mine
would write a paragraph.
You get really creative, because
you try and confuse the guy
who's coming on after you.
"I failed English every year,
but I wrote more than anybody
I ever knew Despite what he
calls his "uneducated, street
level" upbringing, his writing
is rich with imagery, laden with
clever wordplay and rife with
alternately hidden and clear
meaning.
In "Broken Man for ex-
ample, he snarls: "The struggle
inside of vour mind is a waste of
time, purest thoughts evapo-
rateDark clouds reveal how
you feel in vour idle time, your
own tail becomes the bait
He savs the writing he does
on COC's major-label debut on
Columbia, "Deliverance is
based on "an outsider's point of
view
"To this day, I stay on this

BRUGES, Belgium (AP) ?
After 500 years, it's a trium-
phant homecoming for many
paintings of Hans Memling,
one of the greatest Flemish
Primitives. But some of
Memling's staunchest admir-
ers wish they had stayed away.
Several thousand people a
day visit the megaexhibit, lin-
ing up to get a glimpse, often
over someone else's shoulder,
of the vibrant colors, minute
details and sublime aura of
Memling's wood panels.
For most, it will be their only
chance to see works of the
Bruges master lured from as
far as Melbourne, Australia,
Pasadena, Calif and Gdansk,
Poland.
His biblical scenes and por-
traits of merchants made
Memling (14307-1494) one of
the most renowned masters of
an age that also produced the
brothers Jan and Hubert Van
Eyck and Rogier Van der
WCeyden.
-But with the reunion of the
delicate works on show here
through Nov. 15, a controversy
hs flared up over whether
such irreplaceable art should
travel at all.
"There are certain things that
should be left in peace. It's the
people that have to travel, not
the art said art re-
storer Roger
Marijnissen.
Wood panel paint-
ings are extremely
brittle, with thin layers
of pigment on a vola-
tile surface. "Panels
can shrink, create blis-
ters ? paint starts peel-
ing Marijnissen said.
But even visions of
irreparable damage
have not deterred the
show's organizers, nor
has it kept 35 museums
from sending
Memlings on the road
to this center of Gothic and Flem-
ish Renaissance art.
"You have to try to do the
maximum with a minimum of
risk said Hilde Lobelle-
Caluwe, curator of the Memling
.1.
museums can afford to avoid.
While Paris' mighty Louvre
Museum refused to send its
Memlings for fear of damage,
the Narodovve Museum in
Gdansk didn't have
the option to be so pro-
tective. It sent
Memling's massive
triptych, "The Last
Judgment
"The Polish mu-
seum is in bad need of
museum and exhibit
infrastructure. A loan,
with compensation, is
the ideal way to help
meet the museum's
needs said Dr.
Valentin Vermeersch,
head curator of
Bruges' museums and
a co-organizer of the
show.
Such bartering "smacks of cul-
tural opportunism complained
The Financial Times.
In return for "The Last Judge-
ment" loan, Bruges promised,
Judgment" is now the star of the
Bruges show.
Measuring roughly eight feet
by 12 feet, the work shows Saint
Michael weighing the souls of
the dead, sending the chosen to
heaven and the damned to the
furnace of hell.
The brilliant golden colors
and the tormented expressions
of the damned leap out in con-
trast to his serene and realistic
later works.
Sent from Bruges to its owner
on a Florence-bound galley in
1473, it changed course when
the ship was hijacked by a pirate
and taken to Danzig, now
Gdansk.
There it stayed, despite inter-
ventions by the pope.
Poland lent it to the Louvre
and Berlin in the early 19th cen-
tury but hadn't let it out since
1956, until its current controver-
sial tour, which also included a
stop in Cologne.

one that is supposed to be a

QB Marcus Crandell was held to

ot the season. Sophomore Mitchell
Galloway scored two touchdowns,
including a 45-yard catch with4:32

in the PCI victory.

Daren picked off a first-quarter
attempt and returned in 2 yards,

ter, returning the INT 18 yards.
On the l'irates' first possession,
Smith piled up 3fi yardsen route to

Tulsa came back quickly led by
KB Solomon White, who marched
downfield tor 35 of his team-high
151 yards, capping off the drive
with a 9-yard run and tying the
score at 7-7.
However, on the ensuing kick-
ott, ECU sophomore Mitch Gallo-
way sprinted 47 yards for a touch-
down and a 14-7 Pirate lead. The
run was Galloway's career best and
the fourth-longest in school his-
torv.
lulsa's next drive would end
with Daren Hart's first intercep-

took over on the TU 22-yard line.
Junior Smith, after a 1 U offsides

For the ECU swim team,
Tuesday, October 18 was an
exciting day as the pre-season
ended.
The annual Pirate Purple
Gold inter squad scrimmage
symbolized that all the pre-
season practicing and training
were over, and the season is
about to begin.
"I was very pleased with
their performance said Coach
Rick Kobe, who foresees a
strong team.
For both the men's and
women's teams, the gold squad
dominated the purple squad.
The men's gold won 122-94,
while the women's gold won
easily 135-101.
Coach Kobe can look tor-
ward to another winning sea-
son, after both his men's and
women's teams broke more
records.
In the women's competition,
the 400-yard medley relay team
of Amanda Atkinson, Bizzy
Browne, Sandra Ossmann and
Hilary Stokes set another mark.
Freshman Amanda Atkinson
broke the 200-yard backstoke,
as she established herself as a
premiere swimmer. In the 50-
yard freestyle, Hilary Stokes
tied the long-standing record.
For the men, Chris
Bembenek broke the 200 back-
stroke record, while in the 200-
vard breaststroke, Patrick
Kesler easily set another mark.

(AP) ? Including players fac-
ing offseason surgery in the NFL's
veteran allocation draft pool will
not he as bad as the Carolina Pan-
thers fear, according to the head of
the Denver Broncos organization.
The Panthers and Jacksonville
Jaguars each will select 30 to 42
players from other teams in an
allocation draft scheduled for mid-
February. All 28 existing clubs
must place six players in the allo-
cation pool.
Carolina officials were relieved
when the Player Access Plan, fi-
nalized last month, stipulated that
each existing NII club could place
only one player on injured reserve
and one veteran with 10 or more
years experience in the draft pool.
"I think many people outside
of football realize thata lot of play-
ers have offseason surgery; I'd say
as many as 12 per team said CEC
member Pat Bovvlen, president
and chief executive officer ot the
Denver Broncos. "I could point to
a lot of our veterans. Karl
Mecklenburg, for example, has
had offseason surgery almost ev-
ery year for one thing or another.
"Most are more ot a corrective
type of thing, and those are very
legitimate players. Believe me,
these surgeries are very common
Nevertheless, Panthers general
manager Bill Polian said includ-
ing players facing offseason sur-
gery in the a I location draft is "com-
pletely unacceptable
"We need serviceable players,
not people who'll spend the pre-
season rehabilitating themselv es.
Nor should we have the obliga-
tion ot picking up surgical costs,
workman's compensation, injury
grievance procedures or injury
protection guarantees Polian
said.
One ot the Panthers' chief concerns
about the allocation draft has long been
that existing teams would try to unload
only old or injured players.
Panthers president Mike
McCormack, while concerned about the
change, doesn't think every NFL team
will dump injured players in the pool.

New coach hopes to
turn around ECU's
volleyball program
Eric Bartels t
Staff Writer
With a new attitude and the promise of turning
the women's volleyball program around at East
Carolina, coach Gail Guttenberg sees her role as a
coach taking on many tasks
The first-year coach at ECU, from New Wash-
ington, Ohio, came from Judson College in Elgin,
Illinois. She comes to ECU staff after successfully
guiding Judson College to a second-place finish in
the Northern Illinois Intercollegiate Conference,
in which they finished last the year before.
Guttenberg brings to ECU a new and more posi-
tive attitude for her team to share amongst each
other.
"Attitudes are very important, and the way I
act around the team is just as important
Guttenberg said. "The way 1 act around the team
is symbolic to the way they act and play"
She also brings with her a great coaching phi-
losophy for her new team.
"I want them to know that they are winners,
that they can compete. Most of our games this
season have been decided in the fifth sets, by
scores of 17-15 or 20-18 Guttenberg said. "I ook

Guttenberg will bring to her team a sense of
equality and fairness.

that back to my team. I want to let them know that
they can talk to me if thev have anything on their

Neither the Bears nor Worley's

Worley was until Sunday. The sec-
ond-string back finally showed at

Worley, who met Monday with
Bears coach Dave Wannstedt, has

his suspension forsixgamesin 1991.
Sources in Chicago and
Lumberton verified that Worley left
tor the Midwest Tuesday to seek
help for depression and possible al-
cohol abuse, the Observer-Times re-
ported.
"He's somewhere seeking pro-
fessional help one source said.

UC hopes to avoid another

(AT) ? Two years ago, an unde-
feated Colorado team went to Ne-
braska as a national championship
contender. It left with a humiliating
2-7 loss. Memories of that depress-
ing day are still vivid as the second-

I've had playing football
Colorado was 6-0-1 and ranked
No. S going into the game. The loss
was the second-worst tor the Buffa-
loes under coach Bill McCartney, a
disaster dubbed the "Lincoln As-

"We were emotionally prepared
to play, hut we started poorly and
Nebraska gained momentum
McCartney recalled. "They just ran
roughshod over us. It was total
domination
Colorado lost three fumbles,
threw three interceptions, was
sacked five times and outrushed

Wolfpack
(AP) ? North Carolina re-
fused to fire back.
N.C. State's Carl Reeves
guaranteed his team would
beat the 24th-ranked Tar Heels
on Saturday, but no one in the
North Carolina camp Tuesday-
was willing to get into a war of
words with the Wolfpack de-
fensive lineman.
Least willing of all was Tar
Heel coach Mack Brown, who
didn't seem bothered by Reeves'
bold prediction.
"Carl is a great young man
and he believes (N.C. State) is
going to win every Saturday
Brown said. "That's part of the
reason he plays so good.
"If somebody comes out and
says something bad about Caro-
lina, I usuallv don't like it. I
don't think it's good for our pro-
gram when they say something
negative about somebody else
because that's not what we want
to do in our lives.
"But when Carl says some-
thing positive about his team, I
don't blame him. 1 would hope
that our players would believe
that ? whether they would say
that or not. He stands bv it on
the field
Reeves, of Durham, may be
more fired up than normal for
the backyard rivalry, consider-
ing a broken leg kept him out of

Carolina 35-14.
"They're going to be fired up

game. If they're not fired up,
they're disappointing us. We're

After a 34-10 blowout loss at
Virginia, the mood of the Tar
Heels (5-2, 2-2 ACC) can be de-
scribed as one of cautious opti-
mism. One thing is certain: there
are definitely some bruised egos
around Chapel Hill.
"1 don't like it. I don't like
it. It's definitely a lack of re-
spect defensive lineman
Greg Ellis said of Reeves' com-
ments.
"It's just words. We always
talk around here to respect ev-
erybody, all the football teams.
I personally have respect for
N.C. State. I know they are a
good football team
L.A. fights controversy
(AP) ? For the second time
in as many weeks, the Los
Angeles Raiders are trying to
put controversy behind them.
Quarterback Jeff Hostetler
denied Tuesday that coach
Art Shell directed a racid
comment at him during an
argument on the sidelines
and strongly defended his
coach.
"1 feel extremely angered
that Art had to go through
this and that I'm any part of
this Hostetler said. "We're
not just talking about the little
game of football. This is his
whole life, his whole reputa-
tion.
"We're talking about a
guy's livelihood here, a guy's
life. I really feel for him right
now. He's the head coach, he
takes the majority of the
blame. We've had a rough
beginning this year and I
think he's handled it well
The coach and quarterback
got into a shouting match at
Miami on Oct. 16 during the
Raiders' 20-17 overtime loss
to the Dolphins. The argu-
ment concerned decisions by
Hostetler changing running
plays to passes.
Shell downplayed the in-
cident last week and the mat-
ter seemed closed until
shortly before the Raiders' 30-
17 victory over Atlanta on
Sunday.
ESPN's Chris Mortensen
reported on the network's
pregame show that, during the
dispute, Shell derisively com-
pared Hostetler to former Raid-
ers quarterback Jay Schroeder.
Allegedly, Shell called
Hostetler, "another white quar-
terback, just like Schroeder
Reportedly, the statement was
filled with expletives.
Shell and Minnesota's Den-
nis Green are the NFL's only
black head coaches.
On Monday, Shell denied
making the racial remark.
Hostetler, who did not com-
ment on the report then, called
his own news conference Tues-
day at the Raiders' training
camp.
"I don't know where it came
from. I have no idea where it
came from Hostetler said. "I
recall nothing like what's been
reported. There was a long dis-
cussion, a heated discussion. I
can honestly say I never heard
a racist remark said by Art
Mortensen stood by his story
Monday after being informed
of Shell's remarks, and in
Tuesday's Los Angeles Times,
three independent, unidenti-
fied sources were quoted as
supporting Mortensen's ver-
sion.
"Most situations that I've
dealt with like this, the best
thing to be said is nothing
Hostetler said during his 15-
minute meeting with reporters
on Tuesday. "Obviously, that
doesn't work in every case.
"We've got one person who's
started a blaze and has nothing
to back it up. I don't call that
real responsible. It only takes
one bad apple to ruin the bunch.
To not even check with the par-
ties, I find that truly amazing. I
talked to Art this morning. I
was really bothered. I don't read
the papers, I don't listen to the
news. I guess this tells you
why
Asked if he thought the re-
port caused a distraction,
Hostetler replied: "It's been
huge. Ever since Sunday after
the game, when I was made
aware, I've been thinking about
it the whole time. I'm sure it's
been on Art's mind.
"It's done with, it's over, it's
a shame it's come down to this
Hostetler, in his second sea-
son with Los Angeles after nine
years with the New York Gi-
ants, said he met with Shell two
days after the Miami incident
and felt things were resolved.
He also said he believed the two
had renewed respect for each
other.
ROBINSON
From p. 21
think a commitment had been
made in the meeting, which also
included Whitsitt and Robinson's
agent, Brad Marshall.
Robinson smiled broadly when
asked if he was confident he
would get a contract

. On local radio talk shows, and
in the newspaper, Blazer fans
haven't been sympathetic to
Robinson's situation.
J "I really don't let that type of
stuff bother me he said. "I've

while now and I've had a lot of
things said about me. It really
doesn't matter. I'm here to play

reer. His streak of 406 consecutive
games is the fifth-longest in the
NBA.
Robinson has two years remain-
ing on a four-year, $9 million con-
tract and said he wants a contract
that assures he will be a Trail Blazer
for the rest of his career.
But Whitsitt would not make
that commitment. He said
Robinson is an important part of
the team but he would not rule out
trading him.
"I haven't made that commit-
ment to anybody. I'll never do
that Whitsitt said. "Anybody
who would ever tell a player that
isn'tbeing truthful because look at
all the great players who have been
traded. Anything could happen.
That's professional sports

DAWKINS
(AP) ? John Cooper has
watched the shadowy figures
floating across the screen, and
he is frightened.
They are not ghouls, but
there is something more terrify-
ing for Ohio State's football
coach: Penn State players scor-
ing touchdowns.
"I don't need to look at
any Halloween movies this
week Cooper said Tuesday at
his weekly news conference.
"I've been looking at scary pic-
tures all week
Ohio State plays at top-
ranked Penn State Saturday. A
review of Nittany Lions game
films is enough to make any
coach cower.
But Cooper, while prais-
ing Penn State, also realizes that
no one can be the best team in
college football until they have
played all their games. It is some-
thing he constantly tells his team
and staff.
"One comment I make
six or eight times a day to my
coaches and to the players is:
'Don't make them better than
they are In other words, make
them beat you on the field
Cooper said.
To cite an example, Coo-
per said he has coached in al-
most every postseason all-star
game. He is constantly amazed
that the players he has heard so
much about all season turn out
to be ordinary.
"So everybody's got
good players, but nobody's got
a monopoly anymore on all of
the great players he said.
In other words, not even
Penn State. The Nittany Lions
still must prove they are No. 1 to
Cooper and his Buckeyes.
Yet Cooper said he has
seen lots of signs that back up
that lofty ranking.
Ohio State is not exactly a jun-
ior-college team. They are 6-2 on
the year and ranked 21st in the

the Rapid City Thrillers.
Saunders said several NBA
teams already have contacted
him about picking up Dawkins.
He said he expects Dawkins to
play in the CBA for three or
four weeks before moving up to
the NBA.
Dawkins said he was ahead
of his time as a player because
he was not afraid to promote
himself. A Sports Illustrated
story about Dawkins in April
1980 carried the headline "I
Come From Another Planet
Dawkins said his imagination
is as ripe as ever. But he had no
new stories about imaginary
planets or rambling definitions
of funk music. Instead, he talked
about how he learned to speak
Italian when he played basket-
ball in Italy the past five years
and about his love of the game
that took him to championship
finals with the Philadelphia
76ers in 1977, 1980 and 1982.
"I'm looking forward to just
getting out there and having fun
and letting people know that
basketball is not a just a busi-
ness anymore Dawkins said.
"It's still fun. There's still
people that enjoy playing the
game
Dawkins notched his first
broken backboard Nov. 13,1979,
against the Kansas City Kings.
That dunk led to collapsible
rims in the NBA.
He said he still has the moves
to make a shot or two in one-on-
one situations if he can just get
some playing time.
But first, Dawkins has to
overcome labels of inconsis-
tency and laziness that dogged
him throughout his NBA career.

country. But Cooper used terms
to describe the Nittany Lions that
he has not used for any team in
his seven years at Ohio State.
"They're mavbe the best
offensive football team I've
ever seen he said.
He added, "They're just
unreal.
Another time he said,
"They're one of the most ex-
plosive offensive teams I've
seen in all my years as a foot-
ball coach
The statistics back up
the hyperbole. Penn State
leads the nation in scoring and
total offense, averaging 48
points and 538 yards a game.
Quarterback Kerry Collins is
tops in the country in passing
efficiency, completing 68 per-
cent of his throws for 14 touch-
downs with just three inter-
ceptions.

In the first half, TU piled up
259 total yards while eating up
18:19 of the game clock. Fitzgerald
led the team with 87 yards rush-
ing on 5 carries (a la Tech's
Maurice DeShazo) whilecomplet-
ing 10 of 19 passes for 100 yards
and a TD.
ECU had just 123 total yards,
and 101 of them came from
Smith's first-half rushing on-
slaught. Marcus Crandell wasjust
3 of 10 for 20 yards passing, hit-
ting JerrisMcPhail Derrick Batson
and Jason Nicholson shortstrikes.
After the Matt Levine (8 punts,
47.4 average) punt, completing
the Pirates' opening drive of the
second half, Tulsa tied the score
on another Solomon White 9-yard
run.
The punting game continued
between Levine and TU's Mark
DeLozier (8 punts, 36 yard aver-
age), until, on a drive that ended
with TU freshman Jason Ander-
son missing a 52-yard field goal
attempt, ECU took over at their
own 35-yard line.
Crandell connected with Gal-
loway on two quick passes, find-
ing him in the end zone on a 45-
yard strike with 4:32 remaining in
the game. Chad Holcomb's PAT
would be the final score of the
evening, as the ECU defense stood
its ground and prevented a Tulsa
touchdown.

Winless Bearcats visit Greenville
Oldham 's Corner
Luckily for head coach
Steve Logan and ECU, los-
ing in the game statistics
doesn't mean a loss in the
scoring column, because
boy. would we have lost on
Saturday!
Looking over the post-
game stats after the Tulsa
game, Stevie Wonder could
have seen that we were
vastly overplayed by the
Golden Hurricanes. In just
about every category, the
Pirates came up on the
short-end of the stick. All of
course, except the one that
really matters: points.
Look closer at the
stats, and you focus on the
category in which nine out
of ten coaches blame all
losses on: turnovers. ECU
had no turnovers in the
game, while forcing the
Tulsa offense to fumble
four times, recovering one.
The Pirate defense also
came up with two intercep-
tions.
So the stat that ended
up saving the Pirates is the
one that, miraculously, has
shined all season for ECU.
With a 1.7 turnover aver-
age per game. ECU is now
tied for fourth in the nation
in turnover margin.
This coming from the
same team who last season
was 97th in the country in
turnover margin, losing
1.18 turnovers a game.
Outstanding perfor-
mances against Temple,
where the Pirates forced the
Owls into five turnovers,
and Southern Miss where
ECU forced eight turn-
overs, have strengthened
ECU's turnover margin
greatly.
Homecoming is an event which
allows alumni to see how their hard-
I earned dollars are be-
Bv Aaron ing put to use jn the
s?tkr f??aU Pr??ram- T?-
ditionally, athletic di-
rectors and football coaches are care-
ful to schedule a weaker opponent, and
pick up an easy win to please the fans.
ECU's Director of Athletics Dave
Hart, is no dummy, and chose the 0-6-
1 Cincinnati Bearcats for this year's
homecoming game.
The Bearcats are in a rebuilding
situation, similar to that of last season's
ECU squad. They are led on the field
by first-year coach Rick Minter, who
was defensive coordinator at Notre
Dame last year. He has experienced the
lows of being a rookie coach this sea-
son after finding much success at
Notre Dame.
Last week versus Liberty Bowl
Alliance-leader, Univ. of Memphis,
Cincinnati was defeated 26-3. They
were held to 158 yards total offense
and allowed 270 yards rushing. This
performance was typical for the
Bearcats, who have had trouble stop-
ping anyone, allowing an average of
380 yards per game in total offense and
27.3 points per game.
They even have had trouble with
weaker Mid-American Conference
teams like Bowling Green and Miami
(Ohio), losing to Bowling Green 38-0
and tying the woeful Redskins of Mi-
ami. Cincinnati averages just 10.7
points per game and is coming off of
a season-low total offense versus
Memphis, the third ranked defense in
the country.
The Pirates on paper are supe-
rior in almost every way the two
teams can be measured.
Offensive headliners to look for
in Saturday's game are UC receivers
Sean Stewart and Anthony Ladd.
Stewart has 24 catches for 280 yards
and Ladd has 28 for 375. The quar-
terback position is an unsettled posi-
tion, with Eric Vibberts starting three

Todd Preston has been the starter, but
he has been sidelined with back
spasms. Preston was very effective,
completing 50 of 93 passes for 531

Cincinnati has three running
backs with over a hundred yards rush-

has been slowed by a knee strain.
Redshirt freshman Jermaine
Sturkle started for him last week and
has run for 101 yards in a reserve role
on the year. He may start again this
week.
