Two Lexington women were
killed when the vehicle they were
in ran off the road, overturned
anC struck a utility pole, the state
Highway Patrol said.
Tracy Young Walker, 29, and
Luann Kilby Wyson, 39, were two

LUMBERTON, N.C. (AP) -
The trial of the man charged with
killing Michael Jordan's father
began a half-hour late because
the defendant fought with an-
other prisoner in a holding cell.
Daniel Green needed fresh
clothing because his clothes got
blood on them during the fight
in the holding cell in the court-
room, said Maj. Willie Watson of
the Robeson County Sheriffs
Department
The other prisoner, who was
not identified, was treated at
Southeastern Regional Hospital
in Lumberton and released,
Watson said.

to the dead.
The National Transportation

Rival activists and political
parties clashed across Bangladesh
on Sunday and police counterat-
tacked, as cars were set on fire and
homemade bombs were thrown.
The three killed in southern
Bangladesh on Sunday raised the
death toll from pre-election vio-

MANAMA, Bahrain (AP) - A
bomb exploded in the lobby of a

Islamic group was responsible.
Additional space

David Durham

The university's committee for
expansion plans to buy 56,900 square
feet of land in downtown Greenville for
the use of parking and administrative
offices.
"The request went before the UNC
Board of Governors (Thursday) said
Layton Getsinger, associate vice chan-
cellor for business affairs.
The land is located across Reade
Street from the freshman parking lot
and is surrounded by Reade, Cotanche.
Third and Fourth Streets. Getsinger
said the property encompasses about
three-fourths of a city block.
Getsinger said that once the board
of governors has approved the pur-
chase of the land, the State Property
Office will use their appraisal of the
land in negotiations with the owners
to determine an acceptable price. Then
the purchase will go before the board
of governmental operations. If it is also
approved by this board, and the uni-
versity still wants to buy at the deter-
mined price, the Council of State will
have to make the final approval of the
purchase.
"The deal is not consummated and
(it will be) probably another couple of
months before it will ail be finished
Getsinger said.
The building of FarleyMizelle &
Company, Inc. and a building which
used to house the Sub Station II sand-
wich shop are the only buildings lo-
cated on the property. The rest of it is
currently being used as parking,
Getsinger said.
"Right now we'll use the land
that's there for parking (although) I
don't know what kind of parking
Getsinger said.
Getsinger said the 3,450 square
foot building, which currently houses
the FarleyMizelle accounting firm,
will be used for administrative offices.
He said the university is trying to move
offices that do not pertain to teaching
off of the main campus area to clear
up space for things that are essential
to teaching.
"The Sub Station will be taken
down Getsinger said. "There's no use
of that building to the university
Getsinger said that it will cosi
nothing to go ahead and start using
the land for parking. He said that when
the time comes to take down the Sub
Station, the contractor with the best
bid will be hired.
"It seems to be a fairly simple
building (to take down) Getsinger
said.
However, he said that expensive
problems such as asbestos removal
have been known to arise in the past
when removing older buildings such
as the Sub Station.
Getsinger said he doesn't expect
it to cost very much to prej?are the
accounting firm for administrative of-
fices, either.

Waste incinerator
approved by state
ECU and Pitt
County Memorial
Hospital share use
Debra Byrne
Staff Writer
The state approved an air qual-
ity permit last week for a new medi-
cal waste incinerator to be built re-
placing two incinerators that were
once operated by ECU and Pitt
County Memorial Hospital (PCMH).
The plan calls for a $3.8 mil-
lion incinerator to be built which
will burn waste from the two insti-
tutions. This incinerator will be
cleaner and more environmentally
sound than the previous two.
Gary Vanderpool. assistant vice
chancellor for health sciences and
administration, said the plan was
endorsed and approved by the ECU
board of trustees which then went
to air quality division in Raleigh.
The division then ran a public no-
tice of the plan's intent. The envi-
ronmental advisory commission
then voted to endorse the plan and
the state's approval was granted af-
ter a meeting with the commission
last week.
The incinerator will be entirely
owned by ECU, using their prop-
erty and personnel. ECU will have
a contract with PCMH to dispose
of their waste as well.
Vanderpool said that in the
past, the medical school and the
hospital each had their own incin-
erator which handled immediate
waste. New air sanitation regula-
tions that were put into effect on
Jan. 1, 1995 caused them both to
shut down.
Back in 1991, plans were dis-
cussed on what to do with the
waste if the incinerators had to shut
down at some point. Currently, the
medical waste is being stored or
shipped out by contractors.
The division of air quality has
seen the design for the incinerator
and are satisfied that the current
standards for air quality have been
met.
Vanderpool said the building of
the incinerator will not have a nega-
tive effect on ECU, PCMH or the
Greenville community.
"For one thing, the incinerator
will be cleaner, the second benefit
is that we will be able to handle
and be responsible for our own
waste Vanderpool said. "The third
benefit is that for the next 10-15
years we will be in control of waste
management costs. The alternative
would be to ship off waste and al-
low someone else to control the
cost
The money for this incinerator
will come from Medicare reimburse-
ments and will be built adjacent to
the shut down incinerator at the
School of Medicine. The bid date
for this incinerator will be some-
time this month and will take a
minimum of 18 months to build.
Recycling effort needs boost

Joann Reed
Staff Writar
You could be wearing your old
Pepsi bottle or driving on streets paved
with used tires. Recycled materials are
used to make our clothing as well as
to carpet the floors in our apartments
and residence halls. Recycling efforts
are being made here at ECU, but more
student participation is needed to help
existing programs be successful.
According to Associate Director of
Facility Management Inez Fridley, a
study done by the recycling coordina-
tor showed what things students throw
away that can be recycled.
"Students are shown to have more
aluminum to recycle, while the rest of
the campus concentrates more on
white paper recycling Fridley said.
Recycling bins have been provided
in residence halls for students, but they
are not being used as much as they
could be.
"One of the main problems in get-

have recycling stations on each floor.
That could also cause a problem with

especially with cans and bottles, would
be a problem because of ants and other
bugs that would get down inside them.
Armistead, along with his staff if
three, is responsible for all of the col-
lection and maintenance of all recycled
materials done on campus.
"We mainly keep our aluminum
recycling efforts separate because it
provides the money to keep our efforts
going Armistead said. "We are plan-
ning to eventually recycle plastic and
glass in conjunction with the alumi-
num.

Health organizations
promote Condom Day
Amy L Roystar
The ECU Student Health Center supports the American Social Health
Association's (ASHA) designation of Valentine's Day, Feb. 14, as National
Condom Day.
"Of course, we support it said Dr. Donna Walsh, director of health pro-
motion and wefrbeing.
Walsh said that ECU peer health educators are gearing up to do educa-
tional workshops from Feb. 14-21 that will teach students how to use contra-
ceptives correctly and about the many sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
that present in our society and on campus. Any organization can call for a peer
health educator to give a STD presentation at one of their meetings.
ASHA is an 82-yearoid nonprofit organization based in the Research
Triangle Park, N.C ASHA's goal is to stop the transmission of STDs, while
educating the public
ASHA sponsors National Condom Day and distributes the brochure,
Condoms. Contraceptives andSTDs in order to remind couples to use condoms
whencngaging in sexual intercourse on Valentine's Day or any other day.
Walsh said that peer health educators stress in their workshops the im
portance of condoms and their correct use.
"We encourage people to use condoms if they choose to be sexually
active Walsh said. "And teach them how to use them effectively"
Couples who use condoms "love responsibly the brochure stated. "Pro-
tecting yourself doesn't mean giving up sexual pleasure. It just means finding
ways to have sex more safely
Walsh said that some students still believe that a condom can be used
more than once and that others foil for the fancy packages of condoms that
have been proven less effective than the recommended latex condoms.
The brochure highlights the most effective ways to use the male and
female condoms as well as the effectiveness of various birth control methods
at preventing STDs. Among the methods evaluated, the male and female condom
ranked "very good" at the prevention of STDs, while the Pill. Depo-Provera,
Norplant and IUDs ranked, "none
The male latex condom is the most effective method for preventing STDs.
Natural membrane or animal skin condoms are not effective, the brochure
stated. Even the male condom does not always protect against herpes.
Putting on the male condom before any sexual contact leaving space at
the tip, and rolling the condom all the way over the erect penis are the proper
methods for using the condom.
ASHA estimates that one in four American adults have STDs. Two-thirds
of new infections occur in people under the age of 25.
In a news release ASHA President Peggy Clarke pointed out that "many
STDs have very mild symptoms or no symptoms at all, infected persons can
transmit a disease without being aware of the infection"
The brochure also suggests showing your love on Valentine's Day by
practicing "outercourse meaning not engaging in sexual intercourse at all.
"There are many ways to show toe and to give and get pleasure without
having sexual intercourse the brochure stated.
ASHA's brochure is available by calling their healthJine at 1-800-972-8500.
Students with questions about STDs can contact ECU's health educator Heather
Zophy at 3286794.
The Student Health Center 3286317, located between Flanagan and
Joyner, offers a $20 exam. For women this includes a pelvic exam, wet mount
Chlarnydia test and Gonorrhea test For men this includes both Chlamydia and
Gonorrhea tests as well as a gram stain Students who wish to be tested for

beneficial to both.
More than 100 guests arrived in
the tiny Halifax County town of Tillery
on Saturday for the Learn and Serve
Community Kick-off celebration. This
officially commemorated the begin-
ning of the community health part-

Serve America: Higher Education
Grant
The primary purpose of this
grant is to support a campus based
service-learning environment for stu-
dents that benefits both the commu-
nity served and the students involved
according to Dr. Nina Sehgal, princi-
pal investigator of the grant and
project director.
Sehgal said the one year Federal
grant of $130,000 was received by the
university in November and will be
used to assess the health care needs
of the population through surveys and
personal health checks in a clinical
setting.

CPS - Valentine's Day is fast
approaching. The greeting card
aisle is a sea of red and pink; heart-

cleared room in their coolers for
bulk shipments of roses. �
But for many, Feb. 14 has the
reputation of being the crudest of
holidays. It's a day that sets couples
up for disappointment and sends
singles scurrying into fits of self-
doubt and introspection.

by not celebrating.

"One reason is that men and

of Valentine's Day said Loyola
University of Chicago professor
Bren Ortega Murphy. She said that
in the U.S Valentine's Day was tra-
ditionally a
"woman's holiday

While Murphy acknowledges
that times-are-a-changin women
still tend to have more expectations
than men on this frilly holiday.
"It's bad form to communicate
that Murphy said.
In other words, the guy should

That men and women have dif-
ferent perceptions of Valentine's
Day is annoying, but not surpris-

of children's

she found
that girls

those receiving the 40 acres were for-
bidden to work elsewhere Glascoff
said. "As a result, 60 years later, the
population is very aged, very poor,
economically dependent on farming
and lacking adequate health care
According to Glascoff, community
leaders formed a concerned citizens
group which applied to Sehgal for
help with their health care needs.
Sehgal, assistant professor in the
department of family medicine, has
been involved with Tillery since 1987
when the Student Rural Health Coa-
lition sponsored their annual health
fair in the town. Sehgal said ECU
'medical students, deciding that
monthly visits were necessary to pro-
vide care for those with no other re-
sources, held their clinic in the old
community center. The students
would hang sheets, set up tables and
attend to patients.
After three years, Sehgal said,
the volunteer medical students con-
verted a sweet potato shed into a per:
manent clinic and it is still in use to-
day.
"Most of my students get no
credit for this work Sehgal said.
"Now, the fourth year students get
credit in their curriculum but the first,
second and third year students still
volunteer on their own.
"Now the students go to Tillery
twice a month to provide clinic visits
and educate the patients on health-
related issues to empower the people
to take more control of their own
health. When I read about the Learn
and Serve Grant, it matched what we
were already doing, It is wonderful to
be one of the 15 sites chosen across
the country
Carol Shields, an ECU graduate
student in health education, will be
coordinating grant activities. From a
student's perspective, she said this
program "offers the added enhance-
ment of hands-on experience to see
what these people's lives are really like
and the daily challenges they face
"Tillery is my classroom said
Glascoff, whose community health
students are involved in the program.
"Some students have never seen these
kinds of conditions and this will in-
crease their understanding of rural
health needs. We're having a wonder-
ful time, too
Susan Meggs, a graduate student
who coordinates the undergraduate
students agreed.
"It's a privilege to be a part of a
bridge between this self-reliant tiny
community and the ECU medical com-
munity Meggs said.
Sehgal said the medical school's
efforts are part of its commitment to
eastern North Carolina.

Getsinger said the extra parking

the purchase of the property.
"We were approached by folks
who owned the property to see if we
were interested in buying it" Getsinger

The East Carolinian
Our View
With the amount
of money
students pay to
park on this
. campus, it seems
only reasonable
that we should
be able to park
our cars without
wondering if
they'll be there
when we return.
This academic year has proven to be one of the worst
in terms of vandalism and theft in university parking
lots. Week after week, TEC crime reports are filled with
reports from students whose vehicles have been damaged,
broken into or even stolen.
These incidents have left many of us wondering why
none of our many campus police officers have caught these
vandals and thieves in the act What puzzles us most is
that most of this destruction to property occur on cam-
pus right in the parking lots around the residence halls
(not way out in the freshman parking lots.) Maybe these
criminals feel much the same way students do about hav-
ing to cross the straits of Egypt to get to the freshman
parking lot, so they target the ones closer to campus.
Once upon a time, it used to be funny to watch the
infomercials on TV that showed shady characters dressed
all in black (complete with OJs toboggan) sneaking
through city parking lots searching for vehicles not pro-
tected by The Club or "armed with The Viper Now it's
not so funny because many of us don't have these secu-
rity systems, and we have to rely on the university to
protect our parents' investments.
One would think that the unholy cost of parking stick-
ers would go toward establishing at least some small mea-
sure of security. It's not like the university does not have
enough traffic personnel to monitor the lots. (Try getting
away with not dropping a quarter in a meter if you want
to test that theory.) Why is it that no one spots the van-
dals and thieves who have to take at least five minutes to
break a window and steal a CD player, but a student can
get a ticket for parking in the wrong space in a matter of
seconds?
On any given night a student can see a patrol car
parked in the shadows as if the officer is on a stake-out
looking for someone to break that oh so carefully thought
out two-inches-per-hour speed limit Exactly who are these
coppers supposed to be prosecuting - a student going 17
mph on College Hill Drive or the jerk rummaging the
parking lots shopping for new stereo equipment? Either
let us park for free and take our chances at getting ripped
off, or use our $96 for some kind of protection to give us
peace of mind. Why should we even have to pay to live in
a residence hall if we have to sleep in our cars with base-
ball bats to protect our goods?
We're not asking for a Jetson-style security system com-
plete with motion detectors and heat seeking laser beams
or a fleet of motorized traffic cops stalking around the
lots asking for student IDs. We are willing to settle for
any improvement to serve as justification for having to
fork over $96 for a license-to-hunt in the university's park-
ing lots.
Benefit rocks downtown
Hey everyone, it's that time of
year again - no, not the proverbial
chocolatey, flowery holiday coming
up on Wednesday, but something
equally important. What I'm talking
about and what all of Greenville is
preparing for is the Seventh annual
ROCK for REAL coming up or
Thursday night. Are you going?
You don't have to tell me (but
if you would like to, drop us a line).
What I am hoping is that besides
the five great and extremely excit-
ing bands that will play Thursday,
you the concerned citizens of
Greenville, will help keep one of
Greenville's foremost non-profit pro-
grams running for another 25 years.
You do know that REAL Crisis
will be celebrating its 25th anniver-
sary this year, don't you? Do you
know who will be playing at the At-
tic on Thursday night? If you don't
know the answers to either of these
,uestions then stay tuned, I'll give
you more information soon.
But first, let me explain the ad-
vantages of having the REAL Crisis
Intervention Center service in
Greenville. First of all, its a 24 hour,
seven days a week non-profit orga-
nization that handles over-the-
phone. walk-in and off-site counsel-
ing, referrals and information to
anyone who needs help. That's one
advantage, but here's more: all ser-
vices are free and confidential and

Because without
your support, the
REAL Crisis
Center could not
continue.

Use breaks wisely
Can you feel it? Is there a mol-
ecule in your body that is not bounc-
ing around even faster with every
passing day, minute and second?
Please tell me that tomorrow will be
shorter than today because if it is,
March 2 comes a little faster.
I am boasting about spring break.
No, not the spring break that is de-
picted so poorly by all of those silly
70s movies, but the spring break that
brings sun and road trips and waves
that can rock you to sleep.
Go to the beach! Go to the moun-
tains! Go somewhere that provides
beautiful scenery and activities that
you can enjoy without a bottle opener
please, so you will remember it
1 have a news flash for all of you
out there in ECU land this is col-
lege. What this means to the student
is that his or her life has not yet turned
into the rat race. This week that the
university so gracefully provides is one
that can really make the rest of the
semester easier. Hey, here's a concept,
the school giving the student some-
thing that actually helps their experi-
ence.
This article is a plea for your
grades, for your sanity, for your safety
and lasdy, simply for your benefit that
you use your break in a responsible
but fun way don't waste it by drink-
ing.
This week is the appropriate one
to publish this article because it is
most likely the one where those who
are planning a trip are scurrying
around making sure that they have
enough people to pay for accommo-
dations, making sure that evervone
who goes can get a ride and deciding
on what will happen on the trip.
As I commonly do, 1 will create a
picture instead of tellinct about one. I
don't know about you but I hate read-
ing things that would be screamed if
they were spoken. Know what I mean?
It is 8:30 on the Friday morning
that you are leaving on your trip. You
slam your hand down onto the snooze
bar that ends the deafening sound of
your roommate's aiarm clock. Laying
your head back onto the pillow you
are aware of only two things it will
Patrick Ware
Opinion Columnist
be nine minutes until the alarm goes
off again, and you have two sets of
snoozes until you really have to get
up.
Grabbing your stuffed giraffe that
you won at the state fair last year
when that little kid threw up on the
gravitron, you roll over and the first
of two dreams ensues
Piling into a car that is loaded
with people that you love to be with
you buckle in and notice a brochure
laying under the seat in front of you.
Asking the driver to stop at the bank
machine on the way out of town, you
pick up the pamphlet and you hear
music come over the radio ah, the
first song of your trip.
Inside this brochure you see sway-
ing trees, health clubs, amazing golf
courses and waitresses that bring you
ice water while you soak up the rays
on some crystal-white beach. You see
yourself standing up and running into
the water for a dip. After a few min-
utes you towel off and go inside to
take a nap in the hammock that
swings peacefully on the patio of your
bungalow.
In the kitchen, your friends have
just arrived from the store with a big
bag of shrimp that you will boil and
eat for dinner. After dinner, a three
hour game of Trivial Pursuit will pre-
cede your nightly stroll on the sand
glaring up at the stars and creating
memories for a lifetime. You shake you
head and return to consciousness as
your friend stops the car and you step
out to see that what you had dreamed
about is right in front of you
Waking up you slam your hand
again on the snooze bar and fall back
asleep to enter ?nto the second dream,
except this time the picture is a little
different
Climbing into the car that will
take you to your spring break desti-
nation, you are crowded by the two
kegs that share the back seat with you.
As you wipe the condensation that has
rubbed onto your arm from the keg,
you spy a picture laying on the floor.
As you reach down to pick it up, a
bottle from the front seat smashes you
in the head and is followed by a, "sorry
man from the front seat It rolls down
by your hand and the last drip trick-
les out and fills your nostrils with a
horrible stench.
The picture is of the house that
you and your friends are going to. You
realize that because you decided to
spend so much money on beer and
bottle openers that the lodging that
you chose is most likely less than sat-
isfactory.
Slipping into a dream state, you
picture your first afternoon swilling
beer while sitting on the beach. At
first you smile in anticipation but as
the scene unfolds your facial expres-
sion changes. Laying on the beach you
down a twelve pack and top it off with
a tall boy. Watching yourself pass out,
you see the sun come out from
hind the clouds and scorch you
sweating skin. When you wake up you
discover that the six mile walk back
to your friends' cousin's house will
not be so much fun with a third-de-
gree sunburn on 80 percent of your
body. As you see the week pass, you
find that it flies by because your
drunkenness exceeds new limits, yee
haw, and you hardly remember any-
thing except the paper that you didn't
do before you left for the trip because
you spent so long working on your
fake ID
When you wake up the day is
creeping through the blinds and you
know where you'li go. You'll go and
have fun without finding yourself in
the hospital right?
any individual who looks for assis-
tance through REAL can and will
remain anonymous. Most impor-
tantly, all services are open to ev-
eryone from every socio-economic
background and from every age
group.
By going to ROCK for REAL,
you will not only help the Greenville
community but you will help the
REAL Crisis Center with its fund-
ing. REAL is a United Way agency
and receives most of its funding
from the United Way and some
through the state of North Carolina,
but the biggest investment, of
course, comes from you. Because
without your support, the REAL
Crisis Center could not continue.
I
Second, REAL serves anyone
with the following information on
problems concerning interpersonal,
alcohol or drugs, family, community
information and sexual assault. The
REAL volunteers handle all calls and
the information that you exchange
with them will remain confidential.
Finally, the REAL Crisis Center
is always looking for volunteer cri-
sis counselors, financial support and
most importantly, publicity. The
REAL Crisis Center helps the com-
munity in so many different ways
that your support, no matter how
big or small, is always appreciated.
Each year. 6,000 people in Pitt
County and some surrounding coun-
ties are served by REAL.
So did you want to find out
about the bands who will be play-
ing at the Attic on Thursday night?
They are some of Greenville's finest:
Breed 13, Henry Acrobat, Unsound.
Modern Pilgrims and Slow Children
Playing. Hey. they will rock.
Oh. and one other thing I al-
most forgot. REAL Crisis will be 25
years old this year and what better
way to show your appreciation than
by either helping REAL celebrate its
seventh annual concert or by volun-
teering. For more information on
REAL'S services or getting involved,
please call (919) 758-HELP. If it's
important to you, then it's impor-
tant to them.
Letters to the Editor
Eating disorders are not a joke
To the Editor,
The editorial titled "Ladies Chow
Down" by Patrick Ware in your Feb-
ruary 6 edition was alarming. Al-
though it appeared that Mr. Ware was
trying to present a humorous and
somewhat sarcastic view of premen-
strual syndrome (PMS) and its rela-
tionship to binge eating, in our opin-
ion, the article was inappropriate and
misguiding. Furthermore, in light of
the fact that the article was published
during Eating Disorders Awareness
Week, the presence of this suppospdly
humorous article trivializes real issues
while aiso detracting from the seri-
ousness of the physical and psycho-
logical issues that many women
struggle with.
Premenstrual syndrome is a very
real condition that typically precedes
the onset of a woman's monthly men-
struation. It potentially involves sig-
nificant changes in body chemistry,
available energy, mood states and a
wide range of accompanying behav-
iors. In additions, those women who
do suffer from a bulimic eating disor-
der (bingeing andor bingeing and
purging) often find their condition is
exacerbated by the once monthly hor-
monal imbalances associated with
their menstrual cycle. Clearly, this is
no "picnic nor is it something that
most women have conscious control
over
If Mr. Ware's message to women
is that it is OK to "chow down our
alternative message is: If you feel you
have little control and that your eat-
ing behaviors interfere with your dairy
life or your self-esteem, there is help
available through appropriate campus
and community resources. We encour-
age you to seek this help instead of
chowing down.

With just the push of a few but-
tons, any book that's in print can be
sent right to your doorstep. Sound
impossible?
Well, Amazon.com Books is here
to prove that it is possible. Created
by Wall Street investment banker Jeff
Bazos, Amazon has 40 times more
books than a typical mall bookstore,
and five times those of the country's
largest book superstores. In addition,
they stock textbooks and are actively
seeking business from college stu-
dents.
This is the deal. Amazon will have

Mark Brett
Lifestyle Editor
Is it too horribly unroman-
tic of me to say that Valentine's
Day is a tool of Satan?
Well, okay, maybe so. But I
don't care. There's something
rotten about this holiday, some-
thing that, when I really start
thinking about it makes me want
to gun Cupid down like a rabid
dog.
On the surface, Valentine's
Day seems benevolent enough.
It's a holiday to celebrate love,
and I'm all for iove. Love is a great
emotion; my girlfriend and I en-
joy it a whole heck of a lot Be-
ing in love is one of the most
wonderful experiences a human
being can have.
But Valentine's Day isn't just
about love. It like Christmas, is
about merchandising. And it's not
jolly merchandising, like at Christ-
mas. No, Valentine merchandis-
ing is blatantly manipulative.
You've seen the ads. They've
been all over TV for the last
couple of weeks. Come on, you
remember
Can't figure out how to tell
her that you love her more than
life itself? Go to Hallmark! They'll
express your undying passion for
you, without all the greasy mess!
You're in trouble if you don't
get her that special Valentine gift
but you're stumped. What gift
could possibly represent all that
your loved one means to you and
you alone? Roses, of course!
What better way to express your
own unique kinda love than to
give her the same gift every other
poor ignorant shmuck is giving
his girlfriend?
Men! We know you don't get
that romance stuff, but if you
don't do something romantic on
the holiday of love, your woman
will leave you! So come to us, and
we'll make her happy.
Now, that's a romantic sen-
timent Could we possibly come
up with a more insincere way to
conduct our love lives? A gift of
love should actually mean some-
thing. How rrTuch thought does
it take to buy overpriced roses?
Advertisers play on the fears

find it for you. Plus, depending on the
publisher, there are savings of 1040
percent (the average savings is 25 per-
cent) off regular price.
In addition, customers are auto-
matically given a free subscription to
a feature called "Eyes and Editors
Simply type in the topic of your choice
and each time a new book is published
concerning that topic, an e-mail mes-
sage will be sent to notify you. An-
other perk is a reviewer's section in-
cluding brief descriptions of each
book and reviews done by both the
Amazon stafi and other customers.
This sounds like a good deal, es-
pecially when you think about how
much college students spend on text-
books every semester.
But there's a catch, right?
That depends. Amazon Books is
based in Seattle, and shipping cross-
country will cost $3-5. In two to five
days, the book will be in your hands.
The school bookstore is more conve-
nient but also more expensive, so if
your budget is tight, maybe Amazon
is for you.
Chris Brincefield, who orders the
books for the Student Stores, doesn't
consider it a competition. "If students
need the book that second, they can
use the Student Store. If we don't have
it, they can use the Amazon site. We
the Student Store have a website too,
but it's a free enterprise. I hope thar
students would support the school
however, because we do help fund stu-
dent scholarships
Students did seem to go for the
idea of an internet site to buy books
at Senior John Marte thinks it's a
good idea, "because I've looked for
books that are rare or out of print and
if Amazon could find them, I'd go
there
Freshman Sabrina Smith agrees
and says, "It sounds like a good idea
as long as there's no catch yeah.
I'd use it"
You can check out Amazon.com
Books through the "What's New" and
"What's Cool" lists on Netscape and

Dale Williamson

Greenville's creative writing com-
munity is steadily growing, and ECU
continues to nourish this growth by
offering venues for creative writers to
share their work. On Feb. 14, ECU
will get a creative
boost when Joe
David Bellamy, au-
thor of such works
as Suzi Sinzinnati
and Atomic Love,
reads in celebration
of Valentine's day.
Bellamy's read-

public as the title
suggests, love sto-
ries. While
Bellamy's reading
may focus on love
and all the connota-

with that idea, his
work and career re-
veals a versatile in-
dividual who has
made his mark on
the literary world.

mative years in
North Carolina

erence to his time
as a student at
Duke University. "And my first main
influence was a Southern writer
Bellamy has always respected
Southern writers, and he desired to
reach that level of artistic expressive-
ness. While he does admit growing up
in Ohio may have disadvantaged him
in the Southern genre, he asserts that
he does feel a connection to the
South.
"My connections to North Caro-
lina were renewed by coming back

ECU Playhouse shines
under an eerie "Moon"
Jennifer Coieman
Senior Writer
"A witch-boy from the mountain
came.
A-pinin' to be human,
Fer he had seen the fairest gal
A gal named Barbara Allen
"Dark of the Moon" is based on
an old Appalachian folk song called
"The Ballad of Barbara Allen In the
prologue to the East Carolina Play-
house production of the play, John the
witch-boy (Ryan Christopher Cox) and
Barbara Allen (Allison Dennis) meet
in the woods while the rest of the cast
sings the ballad off-stage. The use of
"line-out" singing (where one member
of the cast cails the line out before
the rest sing it) combined with the
slow, "twangy" singing style makes
the result absolutely haunting.
With such a phenomenal begin-
ning, the natural inclination is to think
that the show can not possibly sur-
pass it and must therefore get worse
from there. Fortunately, that is not
the case with this performance of
"Dark of the Moon 1 came prepared
to be freaked out and i was not dis-
appointed.
Before 1 can even begin to dis-
cuss the acting in this show, I must
make mention of the set and lighting.
Phenomenal. The appearance of the
set could go from normal country vil-
lage square to haunted forest with
little more than the change of a light.
It was extremely adaptable, and highly
effective. The lighting set the mood
for the show from the very beginning.
The blues and purples at the opening
added to that mysterious, eerie feel-
ing that I thoroughly enjoyed through-
out the show.
That said, I can move on to the
more difficult part of the review: what
I thought of the show itself. Let me
start by saying I just plain like this
story. It's an interesting twist on the
old "Romeo and Juliet" theme, and
although I had seen the play per-
formed before, 1 discovered all new-
things to love watching this version.
I thought I knew what to expect
of the music, having seen a few dis-
jointed run-throughs. I was wrong.
The tidbits 1 heard while the show was
still in rough rehearsals were noth-
ing compared to the complete e ffect
with costumes, set and proper se-
quence. Director John Shearin more
than did his homework when select-
ing folk songs for the show, and it
showed.
I know from experience that I
never know what to expect from the
CD Reviews
East Carolina Playhouse actors, so I
won't even pretend that they didn't
surprise me as usual. This was the first
chance I have had to see Allison Den-
nis in a leading role, and it was worth
the wait She made an outstanding
Barbara Allen. Her combination of
innocence and sensuality made for a
very real portrayal of the fickle Bar-
bara.
Ryan Christopher Cox again gives
an outstanding performance, some-
thing 1 am beginning to expect from
him. His John is likable and loving to
Barbara, and yet cold-hearted and
dangerously savage when threatened.
The witches themselves were ex-
ceptional. The Dark Witch (Alayna
Hamilton) and the Fair Witch
(Amanda Whitford) were deliciously
wicked. Farah Lisa Whitley-Sebti was
a wonderful surprise as the Fiddler
Witch. Her fiddle worked instead of
words to mock John and Barbara's
love affair right along with the other
witches. The Shadow Witch (Elizabeth
South) was the only one I couldn't
figure out at first 1 kept waiting and
waiting for her to say something, and
it wasn't until after the show was over
that I realized that shadows don't talk.
After coming to that conclusion.

National Condom Week, which is des
ignated for the week of Feb. 14-21, is
an event observed by more than � -
350 universities, AIDSSTD edu-
cation organizations, high
schools, family planning clinics
and pharmacies across the �
United States and Canada. The
national awareness week was
started in 1978 by some students
at the University of California-Ber
keley.
A number of ECU's departments
organizations will observe National
Week in a couple of different ways. The Peer

Okay, even if you've never seen
the show, you know who the Little
Rascals are. right? Spanky. Alfalfa.
Buckwheat and the rest of Our Gang
were parodied on Saturday Night
Live a decade ago. so that may be
recent enough to jog the memory of
some of the younger readers out
there.
On this double CD box set, 100
of the old background tunes played
during the Little Rascals show have
been faithfully reproduced for your
listening pleasure by a Dutch band
known as The Beau Hunks.
The story of how this collection
came to be is almost as good as the
music itself. None of this music has
been available in this form before. For
the last 60 years or so, the only way
to listen to Little Rascals music was
to watch the videos.
Who cares, right? Well, do you
remember how good those old
Warner Brothers cartoon themes
were during Bugs Bunny? They al-
ways punched up the action and im-
proved the comic timing. AH' of that
music was written by Carl Stalling
and Raymond Scott, both considered
now to be geniuses of film composi-
tion. Both have had their music im-
mortalized recently on The Carl
Stalling Project and Reckless Nights
and Turkish Twilights: The Music of
Raymond Scott, in fact. Scott has
gained some newer fans because his
music is also used on Ren & Stimpy.
That same respect has now been
given to Roy Shields, the man behind
all of the music of the Little Rascals
(and Laurel & Hardy, too), through
the hard-working efforts of Dutch
bandleader Gert-Jan Blom and his or-
chestra. The Beau Hunks.
Blom. already familiar with Stall-
ing and Scott's music through his
other orchestras (with names like
The Boulevard of Broken Dreams Or-
chestra. The Gangbusters, and The
Wooden Indians), was involved with
scoring a tribute to Laurel & Hardy
when he found out that hardly any
purely musical form of Roy Shields'
music existed. In order to produce
the music of Shields. Blom and The
Beau Hunks had to go back to the

The East Carolinian
Recruits commit
to Logan's team
Crunch time begins in CAA
Dill Dillard
Staff Writer
If you've been around CAA bas-
ketball long enough, you probably
are used to a tight race in the con-
ference standings at this time of the
year. 1996 is not that much differ-
ent from what the avid CAA bas-
ketball fan used to, along with a
few surprises.
Most fans in this area are ac-
customed to seeing Old Dominion
and Lefty Driesell's James Madison
Dukes on top of the standings. Old
Dominion is still in the upper half
of the standings at second, but
they're topped by the "new kid on
the block Virginia Common-
wealth.
VCU, coming from the defunct
Metro Conference, has brought a
new physical style of play to the
CAA with a front line that is around
6'8" apiece and are all over 200
pounds. Sitting atop of the CAA
with an 11-1 record (18-7 overall)
it's clear to see that VCU has made
an immediate impact on its new af-
filiation.
Despite the one blemish, com-
pliments of the ECU Pirates in
Greenville earlier this season, the
Rams are riding an eight game win-
ning streak, their longest since the
'8485 season when they chalked
up eleven in a row. This momen-
tum could give VCU a good chance
at finishing their first season in the
Colonial with only one loss and sew
up the top seed in the conference
tournament on their home floor,
The Richmond Coliseum.
Jeff Capel's Monarchs are all
alone in second as of this past week-
end and their win over surprise last
place James Madison. ODU looks to
at least keep their second place
standing, but that could be in jeop-
ardy with the Monarchs remaining
schedule.
Even though all but two games
are at home for Capel's troops, the
two road games will be at the pesky
George Mason and the ever danger-
ous American University. Along
with those battles, the Monarchs
will have to play host to the Pirates
who beat the second place team
and seemed to match up well with
their big front line.
That brings us to what makes
this conference race so dangerous
the teams in the middle of the
standings. UNC-Wilmington at
third, ECU a close forth, with
American and George Mason round-
ing out the top six. The Seahawks
have won their last two and look
to make a run, but they still have
the Pirates on their heels as well
as on their schedule. The Pirates
have found themselves in a rut, los-
ing their last three games, two of
those coming in the usually,

Winners. That's what any high
school football player aspiring to play
in the college ranks wants to be asso-
ciated with, and what every college
and university in the country wants
to be in hopes of luring talent into
their program.
For years ECU has played second
fiddle in the recruiting war to the
other Division 1A schools in North
Carolina (UNC-Chapel Hill, N.C. State,
Duke and Wake Forest). But now, with
the tremendous success achieved by
the Pirate football program in the
1990s, times have changed.
"Winning is the key to it all said
ECU Head Coach Steve Logan. "Kids
go where they believe they can win.
Right now the young men in this state
believe they can come to East Caro-
lina and win
Seventeen of the 25 recruits who
have committed to ECU are from
North Carolina. This is a goal and a
policy that Logan has always adhered
to.
"That is a mission I've been on,
to accomplish that Logan said. "Last
year we signed more players from
North Carolina than the other Divi-
sion 1 schools. I think we may have
done it again and
I intend on it be-

people that we

The ECUs men basketball team lost a crucial game to
VCU. The Rams still remain atop the CAA with one loss.
Saturday night ECU traveled to Richmond in an attempt
to hand VCU their second loss in the CAA. VCU's only loss
came against ECU on Jan. 13 here in Greenville, 73-72. Since
then the Rams have gone on an eight game winning streak.
The Pirates shot 46 percent from the field and only 22
percent from the three point arc in the first half. VCU shot
48 and 36 percent respectively from the field androm three
point range.
ECU headed into the locker room with a three point
deficit, 32-35.
The Pirates' numbers improved from the free throw
line and three point arc. ECU shot 25 percent for three's
and 81 percent from the line, which was up from 66 percent
in the first half. However, ECU's field goal percentage was
down in the second half to 41 percent
ECU couldn't hang on, and lost the battle 80-71. Four
Pirates were in double figures for the game.
Tim Basham led the way with 17 points. Jonathan
Kerner had 14, Othello Meadows added 12 and Vic
Hamilton finished with 10.
The Pirates drop to 7-5 in the CAA and 14-7 overall.
This is the third straight conference loss for ECU. They
now drop to fourth place in the CAA race.
ECU will return home tomorrow night and look to
end their losing streak when they host William & Mary at
Minges Coliseum. Tiroff is set for 7 p.m.
The ECU women's basketball team dropped two away
games in the CAA over the weekend on the road.

and tomorrow for Valentine's Day.
The condoms will be sold for less
than the amount of a Valentine's
Day card and sales will continue
through Feb. 21.
Peer Health also has a variety
of programs in relation to sexual-
ity that are offered through the
Office of Health Promotion and
Weil-Being. Any student organiza-
tion, student group or class can re-
quest a program by calling 328-

There are also relationship pre-

programs tie nicely into the whole

Condoms are the recom-
mended protection for anyone en-
gaging in sexual activity. While
abstinence is the only sure way to
prevent the spread of sexually
transmitted diseases (STDs), and
engaging in mutually monogamous
relationships is the second best pre-
vention, condoms are the next best

I spent a good deal of time reliving
their scenes and saying to myself,
"Yeah, I see how that works The only-
thing that bothered me (and it really
wasn't that big of a deal) was
Hamilton's hair. The wigs looked
great, and really made the costumes,
but she was the only one whose hair
got in her face so that I couldn't see
her. If her hair had been swept away
from her face just a little more 1 would
have been completely happy. Luckily,
she and Whitford have such an incred-
ible stage presence that my hair hang-
up was nothing more than a slight
annoyance.
I do want to say one thing directly
to the witches. Ladies, run out right
now and get yourselves a recording
contract The song "I Once Had A
Sweetheart" was simply outstanding.
You can send me tickets to your first
concert
While I'm on the subject of songs,
I must mention "Down By the Green-
wood Sidey-O as sung by Mrs.
Summey (Alison Lawrence). This song
sent chills up my spine. I doubt a bet-
ter selection could have been made
for the extremely tense moments be-
fore Barbara finds out where her baby

Tre Perry, I think you've missed
your calling. What a preacher you
would make! There isn't a soul out
there who wouldn't be saved by lis-
tening to Perry preach "hellfire and
damnation I think I enjoyed the char-
acter of Preacher Haggler a little too
much. I actually had myself believing,
for a few minutes at least that what
he was preaching was "the will of

The East Carolina Playhouse pro-
duction of "Dark of the Moon" was
incredibly enjoyable. It provided a very
real peek into the lives of the Appala-
chian mountain folk, despite the some-
what unreal premise.
On a scale of one to 10, "Dark of
the Moon" rates an 9.
thing. Condoms must be properly
used in order to provide effective
protection.
When an individual purchases
condoms, they must make sure that
the condoms are made of latex (not
natural membrane material such as
sheeplamb skin), be sure they con-
tain spermicide (Nonoxynol-9), be
sure they are in date and be sure
they are manufactured in the U.S.
or Japan (these two countries indi-
vidually test each condom prior to
packaging).
Storage of condoms is also very
important. Condoms should be
stored in a dry, cool environment.
Storage in extreme cold or heat, or
condoms stored in direct sunlight
can cause damage, making them in-
effective.
Individuals should also exam-
ine condoms before use to be sure
there are no holes or tears.
Condoms are relatively inex-
pensive. They can purchased over
the counter in almost any phar-
macy. They are sold at the Student
Health Center (15 for $2). They are
also available in vending machines
in the residence halls.
Condom Week is a preventive
technique aimed at reducing the
risk of sexually transmitted dis-
eases. Since one out of every four
college students is likely to have an
STD, college campuses are a prime
targeted population.
For more information on
condoms or sexuality in general,
the Health Educator is available at
328-6794. Please don't hesitate Lo
call with any questions.

original source: the short films them-
selves. Using multiple film prints and
a small number of original transcrip-
tions and notes, they began to reas-
semble the music piece by piece - a
painstakingly slow process that took
several months.
They then brought in original
period equipment, so that the music
would sound authentic, and set about
the task of recording what they
hoped would be a close approxima-
tion of the Little Rascals' music. The
Beau Hunks are so good at what they
do that almost all of the pieces re-
corded live were put on the album
as is, without editing or mixing.
Since the release of the collec-
tion, praises for The Beau Hunks
have poured in from such notable
people as underground cartoonist R.
Crumb, Beach Boy Brian Wilson, and
film criticLittle Rascals scholar
Leonard Maltin, and such notable
publications as The New Yorker, The
New York Times and Billboard maga-
zine. Listening to the 100 short tunes
(they range in length from the four
second "Laugh" to the six minute
"Shield Suspense Medley") it's easy
to see why this music is so adored.
Equally sweet and nostalgic, this is
pure childhood set to melody.
My only gripe is that there are
no Shields recordings to hear in their
original form. All have been lost and
that is a shame. The Beau Hunks
have done the best job anyone could
have recreating Shields' sound and
style, but having heard their version
it makes me want all the more to hear
how Shields would have done it him-
self.

Bellamy is the Whichard Distin-

at ECU, but his reputation in the lit-
erary world extends far beyond this
campus. He has served as the Direc-
tor of the Literature Program of the
National Endowment for the Arts
from 1990 to 1992 and is a former
President of the Associated Writing
Programs (AWP) and the Coordinat-
ing Council of Literary Magazines
(CCLM).
He was also the founding editor
and publisher of Fiction Interna-
tional magazine and press. In fact,
Bellamy's skills as not only a writer
but also an editor have earned him
great notoriety. William Hallberg, an
author and creative writing professor
in the English department commends
Bellamy's editorial work. "In his one
hundred and fourteen years as editor
of Fiction International Hallberg
states, "Joe Bellamy has launched
the careers of many noteworthy writ-
ers
ECU writing professor and local
author Luke Whisnant praises
Bellamy's work as something which he
always looks forward to reading. "His
work draws from an amazing range
of sources - literary, historical, scien-
tific, musical, current events he said.
Still, Whisnant commends Bellamy for
grounding his creative efforts in the
human heart
And the human heart will be the
focus of Bellamy's reading on Feb. 14
when he narrates his love-inspired
tales. Since this is Bellamy's second
year as Whichard Professor, this will
more than likely be his last public read-
ing at ECU, so mark your calendar.
Joe David Bellamy will read in the
General Classroom Building, room
1026, at 7 p.m. Participate in what is
destined to be only part of a growing
creative tradition in Greenville as the
area's writing community thrives.

HIGH POINT (AP) - Turn left
through a gate off Pine Lodge Road
- a one-lane, unpaved dirt road in
Davidson County - and what you find
could astound you.
Country folk have lived on the
wooded, rural road for generations,
raising their children and growing
old on the same dirt paths they
scampered along on as children.
But the road's newest inhabit-
ant, a cloaked, mysterious man from
the Far East, also enjoys the stark
simplicity of the area.
Stop your car at the end of the
driveway, traverse a short bridge,
and rap on the door of the small
shed.
Soon, a thin, ascetic-looking
man with a shaven head, clad in or-
ange and wrapped in an orange blan-
ket, may appear in the doorway,
blinking his eyes rapidly as he tries
to understand what you're saying.
Yes. in the middle of the woods
in rural Davidson County, you've
stumbled upon a Buddhist monk.
Bunrith Thun is a liberal arts
major at Davidson County Commu-
nity College. He fled Cambodia and
came to America seven years ago.

brutal terror inflicted by the Khmer
Rouge upon his countrymen in Cam-
bodia.
After four years in Springfield.

cabin in the woods.
It's more than just a cabin, how-
ever. The site has been referred to
as a Cambodian commune.

At first blush, it looks more like
a summer camp.
There's an enormous building
used as a meeting hall, bridges and
walking trails, two ponds, a swim-
ming pool and a temple.
The temple isn't complete -
there's not enough money in the
small church's treasury to build the
temple church officials want to
build.
Rugs crisscross the floor of the
makeshift temple, surrounded by
pictures of the abbot. Thun and
other monks on the walls. Numer-
ous statues and various religious
items fill every inch of the enormous
altar at one end of the room. Paint-
ings of Buddha and his original five
disciples line the walls.
Most of the statues and paint-
ings come from overseas. Building
the collection is a slow. laborious
process. Thun said.
Although the collection may im-
press outsiders. "It's just a build-
ing Thun says with a shrug.
His abbot. Chok Toumka. will
make the decision about when there
is enough money to build a real
temple.

leader, a man with power.
Now, he wakes up early and
prays, goes to school, comes home
and prays. It's a lonely life, he said -
he doesn't get out much, besides
classes
You won't see Thun walking the
streets of Lexington, an area not
known for Eastern religions. How-
ever, about 100 Cambodian families
have quietly settled down in the bar-
becue city during the last few years.
Thun said.
When Thun began taking
classes at the community college, his
English was limited. So he became
friends with his advisor. Dottie
Burkhart. going to her home to im-
prove his language skills.
Burkhart was careful not to
schedule a visit during dinnertime.
Thun isn't permitted to eat after 11
a.m. and has to subsist on water,
soda and coffee the rest of the day.
Empty bottles of Mountain Dew lie
on the floor near his bed.
The Lexington area's Cambo-
dian population multiplies several
times a year, when Thun hosts reli-
gious celebrations attended by hun-
dreds of people. The goal is to raise
money for the host temple.

and laziness of the public to sell cards,
roses and jewelry. It's cheapened the
meaning of the holiday, turning
Valentine's Day into a big con game.
But that's not the only thing that
makes Valentine's Day so rotten. The
rampant pain it causes helps, too.
Sure, love is great, if you're in
love. But if you want love and don't
have it. love sucks. There's nothing
worse than suddenly finding yourself
submerged in the stuff, normally sane
people exploding into gooey volcanoes
of love, spreading romance around like
so many amorous Johnny Appleseeds
But that's what Valentine's Day
is like to the love-lorn. It's a day-long
torture spree, a 24-hour visit with the
iron maiden of love. Lonely binge
drinking becomes very popular. 1 un-

But those of us who are actually
in love don't even notice. We run
around being romantic all day, blithely
flaunting our love, oblivious to the
pain of others. Every card, every rose,
every cheesy commercialized expres-
sion of love drives a stake through
somebody's heart.
Valentine's Day is love overload.
It's arbitrary, meaningless and cruel.
It's rotten to the core, and it's high
time we did something about it
I'm not suggesting we do away
with the holiday. I must admit, I like
celebrating love. Anniversaries and
other, more personal, things are more
important, but Valentine's Day is kind
of a nice thing to have around.
But couldn't we celebrate it more
quietly? Don't send gifts to your
loved one at work. It's just going to
make somebody feel bad. Go away
somewhere quiet with the person you
love, and do your love stuff behind
closed doors. Don't depress or disgust
the rest of the world with your own
private stuff.
And, for God's sake, if you're go-
ing to give your lover a present, stop
giving such easy gifts. If someone's
worth the trouble it takes to be in-
volved with them in the first place,
they're worth the trouble of giving
them something special.
Gee, that wasn't as unromantic
as I thought, despite the Satanic pres-
ence. I must be slipping

The East Carolinian
Morrison suspended from fight
(AP) - Tommy Morrison tried
to get out of a test for the AIDS vi-
rus before state boxing officials is-
sued an ultimatum: Get tested or
don't fight.
Morrison finally took the test
but never fought after Nevada sus-
pended him for medical reasons only
hours before his bout with Arthur
Weathers. Boxing officials refused
to say why, but a source told The
Associated Press that Morrison's
HIV test came back positive.
Morrison had cited religious
reasons for his initial refusal to take
a test for the vi-
rus in the days
before his fight.
He left a doctor's
office but re-
turned the next
day to submit a
blood sample.
"I was called
and told he did
not want to take
the test said Dr.
James Nave,
chairman of the
Nevada, last fought Oct. 7 when he
was bloodied in getting stopped in
the seventh round by former WBC
champion Lennox Lewis.
A British promoter for Lewis,
Panos Eliades, said the former WBC
heavyweight champion was in Ja-
maica and hadn't heard about
Morrison's suspension.
"We'd better get our man in
there (for testing) Eliades said.
"There was a lot of blood in that
fight
Virgets said Morrison was
scheduled to fight two weeks later
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, in Richmond,
Va and was
then going to
meet a top-10
contender on the
March 16
undercard of the
Mike Tyson-
Frank Bruno
heavyweight title
fight at the MGM
Grand in Las Ve-
gas.
Virgets said
"We were going
to get either a
Tyson fight or a
light for one of
the titles
� Tom Virgets
Nevada Athletic Commission. "I said
he would take the test or he would
not fight and that's final
The blond heavyweight boxer
and occasional actor flew home im-
mediately to Oklahoma after he was
suspended Saturday and was in se-
clusion at his ranch home near Jay,
about 50 miles from Tulsa.
A woman who answered the
door Sunday afternoon at the home
spoke inside with the boxer for a few
minutes before returning to say he
did not wish to speak to reporters
at that time.
Morrison's promoter, Tony
Holden, said late Sunday that the
boxer had been moved from his
home so he wouldn't be bothered
by the media. Holden said he would
receive a written medical report
from the commission on Monday.
"At that point, we will see an-
other doctor here Holden said.
"We'll get retested to see if Tommy
can pass whatever he didn't pass in
Nevada. We don't know those
people. We don't know those doc-
tors out there. Let's go get retested
Holden said a news conference
on the matter could be scheduled
Tuesday.
Morrison's trainer, Tom Virgets,
said he told the fighter the news of
his suspension about 4 p.m. Satur-
day in the crowded casino at the
MGM Grand hotel.
Morrison was to have gotten
$50,000 to fight Weathers, the first
step in a package of fights under
promoter Don King that was to have
led to a possible $4 million payday
against Mike Tyson later this year.
Virgets refused to comment on
reports that Morrison tested posi-
tive for HIV, but said Morrison
planned to see a doctor on Monday
in Oklahoma
"We're going to go and get re-
tested Virgets said. "I would say
at this point in time that everything
is speculation
Morrison, who beat George
Foreman in 1993 in his last fight in
King had promised Morrison either
a title fight or a fight with Tyson by
the end of the year.
"We were well on our way up
the ladder, looking to get where we
wanted to be Virgets said. "We
were going to get either a Tyson
fight or a fight for one of the titles
Virgets said he went looking for
Morrison on Saturday afternoon af-
ter the Nevada commission informed
him of the medical suspension. He
said he found the boxer in the ca-
sino of the MGM Grand and sat him
down and told him the news.
"It's a shocking thing to hear
when you're told you've been medi-
cally disqualified Virgets said. "He
wanted to know if there was any-
thing we could do about it
The boxer's mother, Diana
Morrison, said she and her son did
not know what the suspension was
about
"I'm just taking it as it comes.
I'm not going to jump to any con-
clusions Diana Morrison said.
News of Morrison's suspension
seemed to go almost unnoticed in
his hometown.
Some residents said they no
longer follow the boxer's career and
others said he has grown too arro-
gant for the small community.
But Frank Allen, manager of a
Jay grocery store, said that when
Morrison is in town he often eats at
the local cafe and occasionally drops
in at the town's bowling alley. He said
he was surprised by the reports
about Morrison's suspension.
"I really wasn't expecting any-
thing like that Allen said.
Although state boxing officials
declined to comment on Morrison's
case, the commission's chief physi-
cian, Dr. Flip Homansky, said that if
a boxer would test positive for HIV,
the test would be repeated. If it still
comes up positive, a more sophisti-
cated test is administered. That analy-
sis takes 24 hours.
"So, in essence, we would check
it three times Homansky said.
Morrison, 27, was paid $2.1 mil-
lion for his sixth-round loss to Lewis,
a fight that could have led to his first
title shot since he lost the WBO
heavyweight crown to Michael Bentt
in October 1993. He is 45-3-1 in a
seven-year career with 39 knockouts,
including a 12-round decision over
Foreman in 1993 for the WBO title.
Morrison was a popular attrac-
tion in the heavyweight ranks, with

The crowd of about 5,000 at the
MGM Grand Saturday night booed
when told Morrison would not fight
in the semi main event on the Felix
Trinidad-Rodney Moore IBF welter-
weight title fight.
In addition to his boxing career,
Morrison was an actor who played a
featured part as a boxer trained by
Sylvester Stallone in "Rocky V He
most recently had a guest role last
month on the "Cybill" show, where
he also played a boxer.
Marc Ratner, executive director
of the Nevada Athletic Commission,
said he was under orders from Ne-
vada attorney general Frankie Sue
Del Papa not to disclose the reason
for Morrison's medical suspension.
Morrison also faces misde-
meanor charges in Oklahoma stem-
ming from an October incident in
which Tammy Witt, the mother of his
5-year-old son, alleged he hit her.

UNC-W, along with match-ups with
VCU and American, don't expect the
Spiders to do a lot of moving in the
standings.
JMU has been the biggest dis-
appointment in the CAA. With a 1-
10 CAA record with no signs of im-
provement, the Dukes who still
could be dangerous in the tourna-
ment, will have to finish the season
with all top five CAA opponents.
1996 thus far has been nothing
but interesting. With the fall of the
JMU empire to the usual chaotic late
season jockey for position in the
tournament, the CAA has been close
as always. It is obvious that VCU will
be the favorite in the tournament,
but that's the beauty of college bas-
ketball tournaments. In the tourna-
ment it's lose one game and you're
gone, and with this tight race, it's
still anybody's championship.
NOTES from page 11
5 of 20 shots. The Lady Rams shot 44
percent in the first half and took a 19-
33 lead in the first half. At half time
VCU led ECU 19-33.
The Lady Pirates improved their
field goal percentage in the second half
to 40 percent, while VCU's percentage
dropped to 37 percent, but it wasn't
enough and the Lady Pirates lost by
20 points, 51-71.
Justine Allpress scored 18 in the
loss and pulled down six rebounds,
while Tomekia Blackmon added 10 and
grabbed three off the boards. Tracey
Keiley finished with eight points and
eight rebounds.
That loss dropped ECU to 3-7 in
the conference before traveling to
Harrisonburg. Va. on Sunday to take
on the Lady Dukes of James Madison.
ECU shot 44 percent in the first
half and 80 percent from the free throw
line. JMU shot 42 percent in the first
1 JbAJVl from page 11
ning back position with four players
already on scholarship. But, due to
the fact that Wilson is an eastern
North Carolina native and a 3.0 stu-
dent, Logan made room for him.
"I was not going to let him get
away Logan said.
At other skill positions, a couple
of other notable athletes were signed
that fit into the Pirates' offensive
scheme.
Rashan Burns is a 64, 240 lb.
Toms River, New Jersey native that
can play tight end or even split out at
he wide receiver position. He's big,
ast. mobile, and can run under the
half and only 41 percent from the line.
At half time ECU was only down by
one point 33-34.
However, ECU could not hold on
to that lead and lost the game 54-66.
The Lady Pirates shot 32 percent from
the field in the second half. However,
the Ladv Dukes shot 52 percent and
100 percent from the line. JMU never
sent ECU to the line in the second half
to shoot free throws.
Allpress and Blackmon led the
ECU scoring drive with 16 points each.
Mary Thorn also scored double digits
with 10. Leading rebounder was Laurie
Ashenfelder, who despite only having
two points, pulled down eight re-
bounds.
ECU now drops to 3-8 in the CAA
and 7-13 overall. The Lady Pirates will
have this week to prepare for George
Mason who will be coming to Minges
this Friday night. Tip-off is set for 7
iiinim H ��
ball, so it is no wonder that he was
attracted to the Pirates' style of of-
fense.
"He'll be fun to coach Logan
said.
Burns was heavily recruited by
the likes of National Champion Ne-
braska. Syracuse and Illinois.
Marcellus Harris is a wide re-
ceiver hailing from Newport News, Va.
who caught 38 passes for 603 yards
(15.9 yards per catch) as a Senior. He
also rushed for 161 yards and five
TD's. He ranked eighth in the Penin-
sula District with 60 points this sea-
son. Logan said he thinks he will fit

Despite the acquisition of these
highly regarded offensive skill players,
Logan's emphasis was filling future
voids at offensive line and linebacker.
This coming season ECU will be los-
ing LB's Marvin Burke, Carlos Brown
and B J. Crane, who are three and four
year starters for the Pirates.
"We're anticipating the loss of
those guys and we needed to replen-
ish that area, along with our offen-
sive line said Logan. "We also
brought in a punter and a kicker to
give Chad (Holcomb) and Matt
(Levine) some competition and to play
some guys when the turnover begins
Probably the most valuable line-
backer, or recruit for that matter, that
Logan signed is Raymond Massey.
Massey is a 6'3 238 lb. Charlotte
native that follows the outstanding
linebacker tradition at ECU, along the
lines of Morris Foreman, Mark
Libiano or Robert Jones. He is rated
as the no. 19 prospect in North Caro-
lina by SuperPrep Magazine and was
the defensive MVP of the North Caro-
lina squad in the 1995 Shrine Bowl.
Massey had 189 tackles in 1995,
six sacks, three fumble recoveries (one
for a touchdown), caused five fumbles
and had one interception. Massey's
coach at Olympic High School, Scott
Stein, called him "the most dominant
player I have coached in 12 years
Massey was ail-conference and
All-CharlotteMecklenburg County.
Overall, the Pirates have a superb
recruiting class, and it will remain so
year after year if the winning tradi-
tion started by Steve Logan at ECU
continues.
"I feel real good about it and I'm
really proud Logan said. "We've
done a good job recruiting the best
athletes and then finding them a place
to play. I really believe they can play
the game, but that's what we went out
to do and we got it done. I'm really
proud of the way we recruited
Logan went to the Liberty Bowl
with 20 or 21 commitments in hand
and said the Pirates will indeed sign
the full complement of 25 players.
Logan had no negative surprises from
the recruits.
