Thousands pay respect
to Mother Teresa
CALCUTTA, India
(CNN) - Mother Teresa,
who retained her simplic-
ity and humility despite
an avalanche of interna-
tional fame, died Friday
night of a heart attack.
A line of mourners that
bepn forming in front of
St. Thomas before dawn
Sunday was half a mile
long by 9 a.m. Admirers of
different nationalities and
religions, including
Hindus, Christians and
Muslims, were in the line.
They carried wreaths of
flowers and handmade posters, tokens of their love and respect for the nun.
Mother Teresa's body will be buried Saturday in a state funeral ceremony, an
honor usually accorded only to senior politicians and heads of state.

ECU doctors experiment with new breast
cancer surgery
GREENVILLE, N.C. (AP) ? Doctors at East Carolina University are experi-
menting with a new technique that could replace the pain of breast cancer
surgery with a simple incision and series of stitches.
To check for the disease, doctors routinely remove dozens of Ivmph nodes
near a woman's armpit, then examine a select few to determine if the cancer has
moved beyond the breast. The surgery involves cutting around muscle and major
arteries. .
The new process, reported in the Journal of the American Medical
Association in December, is intended to simplify the process in a way that
improves a doctor's ability to detect cancerous ceils while speeding a patient s
recovery. t c
The procedure uses a combination of dyes and radioactive tracers to identify
a single lymph node ? the "sentinel node" ? that is most likeK to contain can-
cer cells. Then doctors subject that node to a battery of tests to jud?c the am-
eer's possible spread.
Pilot was giving mechanic ride before crash
CAMDEN, S.C. (AP) ? The pilot of a World War H-vintage plane had been giv-
ing a friendly mechanic a ride when the aircraft went down, killing Ixith men,
officials said Sunday '
Luke Eller, U, of Camden. and pilot Steve Burlcson of Wavnesville, N.C
died Saturday evening when the antique T-6 single-propeller plane trashed into
some trees in the Lake Elliott area northeast of Camden.
National Transportation Safety Board investigators said Sunday that the
plane went into a nose dive before crashing, with the nose buried about a foot
into the ground.
The plane was owned by the Western North Carolina Air Museum, a non-
profit organization. A board member there said the aircraft, built in 1942, Mas
inspected every 30 flight hours, which occurred about twice a year.

Airline price hike to hit business travelers hardest
NEWYORK (AP) ?With a healthy economy fueling strong fall travel Ixxikings,
the nation's major airlines have raised already record-high ticket prices by S per-
cent, The Wall Street Journal reported today
Business travelers will take the brunt of the increases. But the newspaper also
said many advance-purchase fares were raised over the weekend. Northwest
Airlines initiated the industrv-wide price hike when it raised its unrestricted
coach fares by 5 percent Thursday. American .Airlines and United Airlines quick-
ly followed suit, as did several other major carriers, including Delta Air Lines on
Airline passenger traffic hit record highs over the summer and early fall book-
ings have remained strong.
Candy, carnivals and sex offenders on computer
POMONA, Calif. (AP) ? The Los Angeles County Fair will offer cotton candy,
carnival rides and a chance to check out the names of the state's 64.000 regis-
tered sex offenders.
The state Justice Department will set up eight computers in an exhibition
hall that can display offenders' names, pictures, zip codes and crimes. A similar
exhibit at the state fair in Sacramento last month drew 4.000 inquiries.
Critics say the fair, which opens Thursday is an inappropriate place for the
information.
The information was made available under the state's Megans Low, which
requires police to release information on known sex offenders. The law was
named after a 7-year-old New Jersey girl. Megan Kanka, who was killed by a
paroled child molester.

PANAMA CITY. Panama (AP) ? Panama is trying to coin nice the shipping
industry that the Panama Canal will be in good hands after the I niteel Stales

Riding along with the rise and the
falls of the stock market, ECU's
investments reflect the market at
large.
ECU, along with many other
LNC-system Universities, is invest-
ing their money in a variety of stocks
and bonds. These investments have
prospered over time and the result
has been a generous amount of
monev building up in endowment
funds.
'An endowment fund is made up
of gifts and donations of which the
principle can not be spent, it must
be invested said Richard Brown,
vice chancellor for business affairs.
The endowments ECU has
invested come from a variety of
sources. Many donations arc made
by ECU alumni, businesses and cor-
porations. UNC President CD
Spangler has recently set up many
endowments over the UNC
University system.
Endowment funds at ECU are
divide into two separate funds.
"The bulk of our endowment
funds are in a combined investment
pool of the ECU endowment fund
and the ECU foundation sad
Brown. "In addition is a separate
investment pool for the ECU
Educational Foundation
These endowment funds are
invested in seven different types of
investment firms. The seven firms
are: growth portfolio, value portfolio,
two aggressive small company port-
folios, international portfolio,
emerging markets portfolio and a
fixed income portfolio.
The fixed income portfolios that
arc invested in arc primarily bonds.
The National Association of
College and University Business
Affairs (NACUBO) conducted a
survey that has showed the majority
of Universities invest half of their
endowments in U.S.
NACUBO shows that for the
past three years universities have
been showing significant gains.
With the use of strategic place-
ments of funds ECU has seen a sig-
nificant increase in their funds .
"The total of all our portfolios as
of June 30 is the market value of
$21.9 million said Brown. "That is
the total value of all the stocks,
bonds and everything. The endow-
ment fund portion of the
market value is $4.6 mil-
lion and the foundation
portion is $17.3 million.
Funding has actually
increased to where the
rate of return for funds has
been higher than the
index for that particular
period.
"We had a rate of
return in the past six
months of 10.67 percent.
The index to that period
was 9.2 percent said
Brown.
In order to have such
luck in the stock market
funds must be placed by
masterminds in the area of

This past year the process which
has been used by the investment
adviser to place funds in investing
firms is strategic asset allocation.
"We follow what is called strate-
gic asset allocation, which is a finan-
cial model that maximizes the
return on investments, while reduc-
ing risk said Brown.
This process involves placing
funds where hopefully there will be
a decline and increase on opposite
equities.
"Certain types of investments
move opposite directions to one
another, such as domestic equities
often moves opposite foreign equi-
ties. As the stock market is going up
the foreign equities often are going
down. Likewise, in the way you have
invested both, you have limited your
risks and stabilized your rate of

end, the students will analyze their personality traits and relationship kills
and work through projects to help them communicate more effectively. The
schedule includes the camp's "tower course at 2 p.m. today. The partici-
pating students are the recipients of ECU scholarships ranging from SI 2.000
to 520,000. The retreat according to James L. Iinier. vice chancellor for

programs for the scholars. He said the ECU Foundation, which awards schol-
arships, is working to add corporate internships, mentors and foreign travel
to the scholarship benefits.

21 percent only drank on six or fewer
occasions during the last year and 38

Fact: Only 17 percent of ECU
students report drinking this often
Surveys are given to find out
where problems are and figure out
possible solutions to them.
"The purpose of this survey was
to find out how much consumption
is going on and when are they con-
suming said Speier. "We wanted to
find out perception verses reality
Now that the survey has been
completed administrators are able to
decide on their greatest points of
concerns and what they plan to do
about them.
'Two things are of concern to us,
we have reduced the perception of
ECU students, and have a concern
for binge drinking said Speier.
This university is planning an
abundance f awareness and preven-
tion programs to take place through-
out the school year.
"We will have more programming
during the weekend when the
majority of students
drink said Speier.
With the release of this survey,
students should be more accurately
informed about the actual drinking
habits of their peers.
"To help people understand the
results of this survey and to portray a
more realistic view of our campus,
we will be involved in a media cam-
paign this semester to help our cam-
pus and community understand the
truth about student involvement

Drinking Facts Reveal Several Surprises
95 percent of students don't drink from Sunday to Thursday
84 percent of students drink once a week or less
66 percent said no to an offer to use alcohol or other drugs
69 percent didn't use marijuana in the past year
ECU students' drinking behaviors are comparable to their peers nationally.
ECU students perceive that their ECU peers are drinking considerably
more than they actually are.
Drinking does not play a significant role in most students' lives.

ments. If a poster or a curtain touch
the bulbs it starts a fire within sec-
onds, even bugs that hit the buibs
can start a flame said Manny
Amaro.
The lamp is a free standing lamp
that has a shallow bowl-shaped fix-
ture set on top of a 6-foot pole.
Now, you can get a similiar style
lamp with the bowl facing down to
prevent objects getting stuck in the
bowl, which can be highly flamma-
ble.
"The housing department will
be doing their routine fire inspec-
tions, we have sent out brochures to
all students about these lamps.
Housing has ban all tocheire style
(iamma
lamps. The only halogen lamps that
we will allow are 150 watts or lower
and they should have the guard.
During this inspection students
with these lamps will not have any
disciplinary action held against
them. To fix some of these lamps it
is as easy as changing the bulbs
said Amoro.
As of February 5,1997 the
tocheire lamps have had an
improved level of safety because
they already had the guard in
placed. Consumers with these
lamps that do not have the wire
guards can receive a free one with
instructions at the following stores:
Ames, B.Js Wholesale Club,
HechingersHome Quarters, Home
Base, Home Depot. Ikea, Kmart,
Lowes,Montgomery Ward, Office
Depot, Target, and Walmart. The
guards will be availible in stores by
August 25.
"Housing has moved quickly, but
mainly we are following the guid-
lines from the CPSC said Koch.
Halogen Light Safety
1. Never place the lamp near curtains or other cloth
window treatments.
2. Never drape clothes over the lamp.
3. Keep lamp away from bedding.
4. Never leave the lamp on when you leave the room or you
are not at home.
5. To reduce the chances of the lamp tipping over, keep
children and pets away from the lamp.

ECU is hoping to put four consecutive winning seasons together this year for football and they
need your help. That's right, the football team is calling you.
The home opener against Write Forest is this Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in Dowdy-Ficklen
Stadium and officials are expecting the biggest crowd ever for a Pirate game. True, the upper
deck is not completed yet, but they have already constructed temporary bleachers in each end
zone until the deck is complete. There are 5,000 extra seats with 1,500 seats in the scoreboard
end zone and 3,500 in the Minges Coloseum end Zone. The 3300 seats are for reserved ticket
holders, while the other 1,500 will be used for student overflow.
It is vital that each and every student and fan pack the stadium and cheer on the Pirates. We
need to prove that we will be able to fill that upper deck when it is completed.
Football players know when they have the support of the fans in the stands. It gives them a
boost. They want nothing more than to hear the roar of the crowd supporting their hard work
on the field.
Student tickets are still free, so take advantage of that and travel to the game with your bud-
dies. All of us here at TEC will be at the game wearing our purple and gold and cheering for the
Pirates.
This is only the third time in history these two teams have met with each other as ECU took
a 20-10 win in 1963 and Wake Forest took the last meeting in 1979, 23-20. Ironically enough,
the 1963 meeting in then, Rcklen Stadium was the dedication game for the stadium. Officials
had hoped that this weekend's game would be the dedication for the new upper deck but con-
struction problems have pushed that back.
ECU students need to support their Pirates. The football team practices very hard through-
out the week, and it is a real let down for them to look up in the stand and not see the students
supporting them is a real let down.
So let's all join together as a student body and cheer on the Pirates as they compete for their
first win of the season.
OPINION
Everafter, china patterns not every student's cup of tea
I will find the time to say 7
loveyou even ifthe tie
that binds my brother and his
future wife seems to be lacing
its subtle and strangling wires
around me.
My brother is getting married next
month, the day after my birthday,
October 25. I think he loves her and
she maybe loves him, and I want to be
happy for them.
She graduated from ECUs school
of nursing this past spring, really
smart young lady, good grades, never
been in trouble with the law, doesn't
drink, abhors smoking.
I graduated from ECU's liberal arts
program this past spring, think some-
times I see genius in my work, make
respectable grades, been in trouble
with the law countless times, prefer
bourbon to vodka, and smoke Winston
regulars.
My girlfriend went to JC Renneys
and picked up their wedding registra-
tion gift list. She enthusiastically (too
enthusiastically for me) went through
the list suggesting items we should
buy for the bridal shower china pat-
terns, color coordinated bath towels
(colors like berry stain and magenta
sunrise), electric can openers, five-
piece place settings, etc. All the while,
I studied Richard ford's Women With
Men , half-pretending to be interest-
ed in china patterns and autumn sun-
rise draperies.
I suppose I should be more happy
for them. After all, it is my brother's
wedding, a once-in-a-lifetime ceremo-
ny, a formal union, the amalgam to
beat all amalgams. Only I don't feel
happy for them. At least, not to the
point of dancing around in autumn
sunshine curtains and lavender tea
cup decor.
I'm more like, "Honey, why dont
we wait till were like 50 to tie the
knot?"
I guess in some rudimentary way,
this marriage that he's so happy about
and she's so happy about is creating
some sort of midlifc crisis in me; and
I'm only 23.
It's just that right now I don't even
want to think about lifelong commit-
ments, mortgage values, diapers, and
the seeming black-holish absorption
of time that is having a family.
As it is, I sleep an average of about
six hours per night, t work three writ-
ing- oriented jobs: editing a national
academic publication, tutoring in the
writing center, and my love, The East
Carolinian.
On top of which, I'm about 20,000
words into my first novel, 2,000 words
into my 100th or so short story, and
somewhere in the middle of a stormy
sea called 12 graduate hours.
I'm also working with four profes-
sors and one wonderful editor in com-
piling a portfolio for a doctoral pro-
gram and am considering an intern-
ship with the swanky Manhattan mag-
azine Harpers.
I hardly have time to even breathe
the words "I love you" between sips of
highly caffeinated drinks and lyrical
passages of prose. How am I supposed
to get married? Why should I get mar-
ried?
I made a promise to myself several
years ago: I will not get married until 1
publish my first novel. As it is, it looks
like III be at least 26 and the ominous
year 2000 will be upon us.
I told her we could do it in the rec-
tory of Saint Patricks Cathedral, just
like Fitzgerald and Zelda. And we may
very well do that.
Until that time, I will enjoy the
productivity that has become my life.
I will try to smile encouragingly at tea
cup decor. I will wish my brother all
the best. I will find the time to say "I
love you" to my girlfriend, even if the
tie that binds my brother and his
future wife seems to be lacing its sub-
tle and strangling wires around me.
to the Editor
Student unsatisfied with ECU's final exam policy
I had this wonderful vision about grad-
uating in December. After I finished
my exams, I would rush to join my
family and friends to begin celehrat-
?? ingour accomplishment of graduating
college. They would come down the
day before the ceremony and we
would celebrate the entire night. The
next morning I would walk across the
stage, get my diploma, and go home to
celebrate Christmas with my family.
But then I remembered. I go to ECU,
and nothing is simple and pretty here!
This school has the great idea that
everyone should go through the cere-
mony first, and then take the finals.
That's right! Just as if the Green Bay
Packers were given the World
Championship and then played the
Super Bowl. My family and I arc most
displeased with the apparent lack of
organization of the administration at
this school. For some crazy reason, 1
don't believe I'm the only person that
feels this way.

Fear of crime ruins good neighbors
lam sorry our society is the
way it is. Sorry that our
doors need to be locked and
sorry for the way our
neighbors are regarded with
suspicion. Even people we do
not know anything about are
? watched with a wary eye.
This is a column written to one
man. Yet, at one time or another we
have ail experienced what I felt. The
feeling is fear of a crime.
To the man who came to my door,
it is not your fault. The fault lays upon
me. I am sorry. Ail you did was ask for
a pen. 1 could not even help you.
It was not you; it was the time you
came. You awakened me from a good
slumber on my couch. I did not stop
to look at the clock on my way to the
door. The only reference point I had
for the time was the darkness. I knew
it was well past sunset, yet still hours
before dawn.
Most likely daylight would have
made a difference. I "nder the watch-
ful eye of the sun 1 would have helped
you. I do not know whv the light
would have made a difference. Some
psychological mumbo-jumho proba-
bly
If you were bleeding, yes, the door
would have been open. I just found
the tact thit you walked up a flight of
stairs, down to the end apartment, to
ask for a pen suspicious. Perhaps 1 am
a tittle too suspicious.
Had I known you, my door would
have been open. For all I know you
might be a neighbor of mine. I have
recently moved; maybe you Jive near
me. Perhaps you are also new to the
neighborhood.
According to the Greenville Police
Department, crime is down. Even
when crime is down public opinion
polls constantly rank crime as a top
concern of the public. Is the fear jus-
tified? On a logical evaluation the
answer is no. Yet. in the back of my
head a little voice keeps saying, "it is
better to be safe than sorry
A fear rests in society. A fear of
crime, especially violent crime. I have
friends who were just being nice.
They opened their doors to people
they thought were in need The need
they had was one of greed. They
wanted what my friends had: jewelry;
money, anything of value.
I even know people who did not
open their dixirs, but had their doors
opened for them. Some ww home-
some were not. An unlocked front
door while watching television turns
into a rude awakening for some col-
lege students.
I am sbrrv our socierv is the way ir
is. Sorry that our doors need to be
locked and sorry for the way our
neighbors are regarded with suspi-
cion. Even people we do not know
anything about are watched with a
wary eye.
Mavbe one day the experience will
come back to haunt me. One day 1
might need a door opened to me.
That door might sta locked. 1 hope
our neighbors can once again be our
friends, stranger will Ix; greeted with
open arms and the only thing to fear is
fear itself. I hope this day is soon,
because I do not like hiding behind a
door.
Oh yeah, 1 hope you got her phone
number.
LETTER
TRNA disagrees with student housing coverage
Recently, The East Carolinian has fea-
tured several letters to the editor
about issues related to the upcoming
city council election. Your Sept. 4th
edition featured an editorial con-
demning the city ordinancelimiting
the number of non-related persons in
a home of three. You cite a four bed-
room home in the College View area
as "typical However, the "typical"
home in the College View area resides
on a small lot (about 5000 square
feet) with only two or three bed-
rooms, one bathroom, a small yard and
little space for parking. This area was
established as a residential communi-
ty at a time when families generally
had only one car and walked to the
local grocery store, movie theatre, etc.
The Tar River Neighborhood
Association (TRNA) has been
opposed to slums and has promoted
the quality of life for students, fami-
lies and senior citizens since its incep-
tion in the late 1970's. In 1981, the
neighborhood contained seven con-
demned houses and was classified as a
transitional neighborhood by the city
of Greenville, meaning that it had the
potential to either improve or decline.
The TRNA worked with city officials
to place ordinances, which over a peri-
od of time could improve the quality
of living for everyone in the neighbor-
hood.
One of the problems you describe
is the exorbitant rent of $1000 for a
two or three bedroom home, when in
fact, if a reasonable rent was charged,
two or three persons could live com-
fortably in a house. In our mind, the
issue here is financial exploitation of
students, not the occupancy ordi-
nance. With the abundance of rental
property in Greenville now, the mar-
ket in this area is beginning to reflect
the desire of students to live in a?:as
where the apartments or homes are
clean, well-maintained, and afford-
able.
It is important to note that this
type of ordinance is routine in other
cities. Its sole purpose is to ensure a
standard of living that can lie enjoyed
by homeowners and renters alike.
This is not a "student district
Over 50 percent of the residences are
homeowner occupied, which include
young professionals, families and
medical residents, many of whom are
ECU graduates.
Finally, why is The East Carolinian
selecting an issue to polarize the
neighborhood? The Hast Carolinian
has never dealt with issues of stu-
dents living in slum housing or sub-
standard housing, not to mention the
victimized students of university
housing. When you discuss the need
for reform, what about these issues
which have been the concern of the
TRNA for almost 20 years:

LETTER
to the Editor
Logan brings success to university, not just athletics
As a senior, 1 find myself looking back
over my college years and thinking
how dramatically the school has
changed. Heck, even Greenville itself
has come a long way in supplying the
demand of a college town. I cannot
think of but one reason whv most of
the growth and beautitication of our
university is happening?our football
program, and more specifically. Coach
Steve Logan. Yes, I know all about the
Shared Visions campaign, and
Chancellor Eakin does deserve some
credit for his contributions. However,
most out-of-state students don't come
to ECU because of the new toilets in
Umstead. I will never understand
why all of our previous head coaches
and atheletic directors were such big
sellouts. Mavbe one dav ECU will
have the last word.
After being unsuccessful, many of
our previous coaches probably wish
they had stayed right here at ECU.
Now I think I will get straight to the
point: Steve Logan has had several
opportunities to move on to other pro-
grams, and yet he chose to stay for
whatever reason. I can remember the
day when 1 heard the news, it felt as
though he shook my hand personally
and said, "We are going to buy the AP
poll and put our name at 1 for every
preseason I had never seen or heard
of anyone who had as much loyalty to
the school as I had. Now 1 want to say
thanks to Steve Logan for staying at
ECU, and give him my support. It has
been a long time coming; however, 1
still want to sav that vou are one of the
top coaches in the country, as far as 1
see. This becomes vcrv obi bus at the
end of every year when ESPN and
other sports giants try to pull our
coach from us. No positive things ate
ever said about you during the vear. at
least not until vour name comes up as
a candidate to other positions. I he
sports gods make out like they knew
vour abilities and did not want to say
anything If the football team loses
every game this year. I will still Nip-
pon: you as head coach. Thanks tor all
your loyalty to ECU - it means a lot to
all of us. Go Pirates!

The Simpsons
Songs in the Key of
Springfield
tlOHT OUT OF TIN
John Davis
ASSISTANT UFF.STYI.lt HOITO
In case you've been locked in one of Houdini's escape-proof boxes at the bot-
tom of the Pacific Ocean for the past eight years, TheSimpsons is the longest run-
ning animated sitcom in television's short history. Like any good art, it was once
blasted and lambasted by conservatives with too much time and not enough
drugs on their hands. That was back in Bart's famous underachkver days. Now
the Simpsons have proven they are anything but underachievers, delivering
witty, timely and very human comedy Simpsons quotes, mannerisms and per-
sonalities have worked their way into everyday American culture to the point
that high school students learn about Homer Simpson long before they team
about that Greek guy who wrote the Odyssey.
One of the most important, but often overlooked, aspects of the show's suc-
cess is the soundtrack. Just as often as one might overhear someone quote
Homer or Mr. Burns, one might also hear the "Itchy and Scratchy" theme song,
for a long time, the only Simpsons music anyone could get their hands on was
the badly made and out of print The Simpsons Sing the Blues, which was really just
a marketing trick and didn't feature any musk from the show, though it did have
the minor hit "Do the Bartman" on it.
Finally, producer Matt Omening and composer Alf Clausen have collaborat-
ed and compiled Songs m the Key ofSprmgMi. a "best of" collection of songs,
culled from the 150 episodes of the first seven seasons. All of the best songs are
not featured on the disc, but they did manage to cram over sixty of the funni-
est, most emotional and most memorable musical moments on this disc.
There are five different versions of the opening theme, including the
Australian version, the Hill Street Blues version, and the Halloween version.
There are just as many versions of the dosing theme, such as the parody of the
Addams Family theme.
But that's really just the bookends of the goldmine in this disc. Remember
the "Monorail Song?" The parody of "Rock Me Amadeus" combined with
Planet of the Apes(rock me Dr Zaius!)? "Who needs the Kwik-E-Manr
Reverend Lovejoy singing "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vidda" to an organ?He thought it
was In the Garden of Eden Ay caramba, indeed.)
The disc also includes memorable quotes from the cast of the Simpsons,
such as Homer complaining, "They lied to us through song! I hate that Bart
selling hymns, "Hymns here, get 'em while they're holy, fresh from God's brain
to your mouth Abraham Simpson wooing Mrs. Bouvier, "You remind me of a
poem I can't remember in a song that may never have existed about a place I've
never been to
One of the best aspects Of The Simpsons is the fact that the characters not only
have silly, comedk. moments, but they also have emotional, heartbreaking
moments. They're very human for animated characters. The songs in which
these moments occur are the best on the collection; Bart and Michael Jackson
singing "Happy Birthday Lisa Krusty and Sideshow Mel singing a heart
wrenching "Send in The Clowns Apu lamenting at the end of "Who Needs the
Kwik-E-Mart the entire cast performing "A Streetcar Named Desire Even
Mr. Bums lets some of his (albeit evil) emotions show in his dastardly giggly par-
ody of Disney's "Be Our Guest
The most amazing thing about this disc, though, is the fact that it remains
just as good after repeated listens. Most compilations of this kind get old quick-
ly, like, after the first run through. This collection stands apart from that crowd.
The intriguing, honest intelligence of rhis soundtrack makes it more fun and
man timeless than, say, the overplayed soundtrack to Nip Ftrikm. Not only that,
but there's so much more Simpsons musk out there. Enough for a Volume 2.
Which they might make for us if you go out now and buy yourself a copy. Be the
first kid on your block to own one. Be the envy of your neighbors. Be the first
person you know to learn the words to the parody of the Freemasons (who are
in league with the llluminati), "We Do (the Stonecutters Song) Offer ends
soon. Act Now.

McClinton gives Hard
Times the blues
ANDY TURNER
UFRJTYIF. F.DITOR
to
That music was about pokin I know
it was.
Rhythm and bluescountry leg-
end Delbert McClinton delivered a
sex-driven set to the
Hard Times II crowd
Friday night. The crowd
responded in turn, grind-
ing and groping on the
dance floor to McClinton
and his band of coitus
cohorts' musical aphro-
disiac.
McClinton has long
been respected for his
blending of musical gen-
res. Friday night he
showed he was equally
adept at rhythm and
blues, blues, country and
even (gasp) beach music.
His seven-piece band was
equally impressive.
McClinton and company
rolled through songs like
Olympic gymnasts for close
hour and a half.
McClinton and his hand com-
bined good songs with accomplished
musicianship. His horn section was
particularly impressive. McClinton's
cigarette-stained vocals and virtuosi-
ty on the harp make him the perfect
bluesman.
They did it slow, and they did it
fast. McClinton started the show
with the grindy, swampy "Take Me
to the River Other songs such as "I
Wanna Thank You Baby" offered the
same groove-driven approach.

However, the band knew the hard
stuff too. "Never Been Rocked
Enough" was sweaty, dirty rock and
roil that not too many groups of
McClinton and his band's age are
capable of doing. A cover of El more
James "Dust My Broom" likewise
ignored any limitations expected as
a result of the aging process.
McClinton left the stage
briefly to allow different
band members the oppor-
tunity to show off their
stuff. It is perhaps appro-
priate to consult the spirit
of the famous music critic,
Frankenstein's monster,
who offered the definitive
guidelines for music criti-
cism. In the words of
Frank, some of the solo
efforts were "goooood"
(keyboard player) while
others were very "baaaad"
(guitar player).
It was a night of explosive
libidos. I would say the
crowd were happy recipi-
ents of the band's penetrat-
ing performance, but I'd prefer not
to do it like that.
Hard Times II should be com-
mended for landing McClinton and
bringing him to Greenville.
McClinton's music certainly is
diverse, a welcome addition to local
music offerings. Fans of mainstream
country also have something to look
forward to this fall and winter thanks
to Hard Times II. As part of its
FallWinter concert series, well-
known country artists such as David
Lee Murphy, Rick Trevino and Lone
Star will be coming to town.
Impressive.
Legendary orchestra
promises smashing show at
Wright Auditorium
RON CHERliBINI JR
STAFF WHITE
NEW YORK ? From the moment you first speak with Grover Mitchell, two
things are clear: He's blunt and, man, is he cool.
The longtime friend of William "Count" Basic and a legendary trombone
player in his own right, Mitchell now conducts the only band from the Big
Band era with continued success and mass appeal. To Mitchell, the success
of The Count Bask Orchestra boils down to a simple formula.
"One of the things about the Bask band Mitchell said, it's always
managed to be so good because of its high standards. We've pulled in great
musician over the years. You know, a lot of good musicians want to play with
Bask, but it's very hard to come in and stay. They kind of just melt away.
Ninety-nine percent of them could never make it. never reach the high level
of artistry
The level of artistry to which Mitchell refers is not easily attainable if yea
consider the kge ids the Alabama-bom, Pittsburgh-honed muakkn has
worked with in the Bask band. Consider that while the likes of Quirky Jones,
Thad Jones, Neal Hefty, Ernie Wilkens, Frank roster, and Frank Wes were
writing musk for Bask, the likes of Jimmy Rushing, Big Joe Williams, Helen
Humes and Bilik Holiday were bringing the blues to life on the mike.
Throw in musicians like saxophone players Herschel Evans, Eric Dixon
and Lester Young, trumpeter Buck Clayton, trombonist Dkkk Wells, drum-
mer Jo Jones, bassist Walter Page, and rhythm guitarist Freddk Green, and
it's easy to see why so many young musicians are banging on the door to fol-
low in the footsteps of these legends.

"I've been in some big bands. I played with Ellington Mitchell said. "But
this band is the most-imitated band. It is ensemble excellence
The Count Bask Orchestra has been together since 1935 in some form or
another, but it is the years from 1952 to the present that truly define the
band. The band refers to these years as the "comeback era For much of the
past 45 years the physical make-up of the band has changed, but rhe music
has remained the same.
"Man, there's not a lot of improving you can do or. the music Mitchell
said. "That's how things become classics, because you keep playing them. It's
like this, say you have the Mona Lisa in front of you and you paint a different
girl over it. You didn't just make it a better paintingnoyou just fucked up
the Mona Lisa
Prior to Mitchell's turn as conductor, the Bask band had started to stray a
bit from its roots. Prior to Basic's death in 1984, the band was limited in what

Pirate Underground gets students involved
JF.NNIFF.R Lf.bliKT I
?TPF WHITES
As it has been expressed frequently by the Lifestyle
writers of this paper, Greenville has a less than
diverse musk scene. More than a handful of stu-
dents complain that live musk in Grecnvilk's clubs
is often the same week after week and lacks origi-
nality.
For any of you rhat are aho frustrated wirh rhe
lack of diverse live musk shows around town, a new
program presented by the Student Union Popular
Entertainment Committee may prove to be an
exciting opportunity to catch fresh new acts on their
way up. The Pirate Underground is a new scries put
together by the Popular Entertainment Committee.
"This is for students as well as musicians says
Pirate Underground Chair C.W Jamescn. This is a
good piace for bands that play around but aren't well
known to get some exposure. It's for whoever wants
to come
Last week Duality and Peenuckk played to a
good size crowd in the Mendenhal! Social Room.
Duality, an acoustic female duo and ECU Musk
School students, mainly played songs by Indigo
Girts, Meredith Brooks, Janis Joplin and jewel.
They harmonized wonderfully and carried off
Joplin's "Bobby McGce" without a hitch. They did
play one original song and it would have been great
to hear more since chat was the best pan of their set.
Peenuckk played after Duality and really stirred
things up with their loud guitars, heavy bass and var-
ious horns. These five guys from Wilson try hard for
variety and pride themselves on sounding different
from anything heard before. They definitely
achieved their goal. Each song v as cclccrically dif-
ferent, original, and their set was filled with variety
galore.
"We wanted to play Pirate Underground for fun
and exposure said Peenuckk lead singer Gray
Tyson. "I guarantee that even if you hate our music
and think we suck you will laugh at least once dur-
ing our set Well, the man is definitely as good as his
word. They were a crazy band-no one could help but
laugh at their antics.
The Pirate Underground happens ever
Thursday night from 8:00-10:45 in the Mendcnhall
Social Room (right underneath the cafeteria). The
ftjpular Entertainment Commtttu; serves free pizz:
and drinks and plans to do more run stuff dependin
on the amount of interest shown. The Pirate
Underground could be great for the students of
ECU. If you are in a band and want to plav, all you
have to do is sign up for a date. The Student Union
tech staff provides a stage, sound and lights. Plus,
they raiie your band's performance for ynu ro use as
a demo?all for free. The Popular Entertainment
Committee will also publicize the event and give
the band a fifteen minute interview on WZMB
before the show.
Since this is a trial semester for the Pirate
Underground, participation is extremely important.
Anyone in a band is welcome to sign up to play and
all students are encouraged to come down to the
Mendenhal! Social room on Thursday nights to
catch a band that just might be the next big thing.

I like peopk who like to make

The threat whkh I am referring to
is the new legion of internet warriors
who spend their time spreading news

whik pursuit, Hollywood often takes a
"no-vaseline" approach (what else can
you can call taking review blurbs out
of context and putting them on movie
posters) to the marketing of its
movies, making the most wretched of
movies appear to be fun, fun, fun for
the whole family, when, in fact, the
movie is the "feel-nauseous" film of
the year.
The leader of the pack is Harry

ASSISTANT I.IFF.STYI.F. F.OITOR
After the sixth time through the 1997
Video Music Awards, I've about decid-
ed that MTV is luore Satanic than
Marilyn Manson. Granted, both
have been courted by the llluminati,
but I have to say that Lucifer probably
gets more mileage for his evil deeds
out of MTV than out of Manson.
Example: whik all Manson could
do that approached evil nn last
Thursday's awards show was to bare
his buttocks and call Christians nasty
names, MTV actually managed to pull
the music industry lower than it ever
has before by allowing hacks like
Manson and Puff Daddy to appear on
the show. Any and all of the good
moments on the show were due to
luck and not MTV planning.
Firstly, the sound mix of the show
was pretty darn rotten. You'd expect a
music channel to have high-tech-
fancy-schmancy-sound gear in place
so that viewers could actually hear
their favorite bands. As it is, the mix
was crappier than any I've ever
encountered. Granted, it was the
Video Music Awards, and there was a
lot of nice video. No music though.
Fortunately, some musicians pay
attention, and MTVs penchant for
bad mixes must have been in the
minds of Jewel, Beck and U2(whose
stripped down version of "Please" was
a welcome change). They all managed
to have great sounding songs in spite
of the bad mix.
Sec, there's this whole PutTDaddv
thing. Though Chris Rock successful-
ly slammed on the notorious thief of
pop songs several times during the
evening, it was clear that much more
slamming was required. For example,
when Biggie Fries's mother came up
on stage to thank all involved with his
career, she forgot to thank all the kids
who bought crack from Biggie in the
early days of his career. Surely Rock
could have mentioned that.
There was also that horrible perfor-
Beck is best.

it could play. Basie, who was in poor
health, couldn't produce his full
repertoire. Then, after his death,
some of the new band ieaders started
to tinker with the music.
"I was very unhappy with what
this band was all about at the time
Mitchell said of. his first taste of
being the leader. "It had to change.
So, basically, I cleaned house. A lot of
musicians that shouldn't have been
here, had crept inI call them Postal
Workers. On many occasions, 1 had to
let musicians go
What Mitchell has today is a fan-
tastic mix of veteran Basie perform-
ers like popular drummer Butch
Miles, sax men John C. Williams and
Kenny Hing, and trombonist William
Hughes along with up-i.J-coming
musicians like trumpeter Shawn C.
Edmunds, trombonist David Kcim,
and alto saxophonist Brad Leali.
"I try to reassure the young musi-
cians that they are good players. I
don't want them to imitate the guy
whose seat they're inthey're not
going to be another Joe Newman or
Frank Foster Mitchell said. "I tell
them, 'Play what you arethat's what
got you here
Of course, Mitchell has no prob-
lem showing them what he's talking
about.
"Man, it's always fun he said. "I
love to just pick up that horn and
blow
So, what can you expect from The
Count Basie Orchestra on Friday
night in Wright Auditorium?
"I guarantee they'll have a good
time Mitchell promised.
But don't expect to see a playiist
on your playbill because even
Mitchell won't know what they're
going to play until he gets on stage.

a feel for the crowd and then we lay

funny and perhaps pathetic "Harry's
World What makes his site good,
however, is Knowies' obvious love for
movies. He's not out there just trying
to screw Hollywood; movies are his
passion.
Another interesting source for
movie gossip is the "Coming
Attractions" website
(http:corona.bc.cafilms). Its infor-
mation is slightly more reliable than
other sites. "Coming Attractions" gets
a lot of its information from movie
extras and underlings. It lacks the
sense of humor that "Ain't it Cool" has,
but it's still a fun site. It contains
information about all kinds of movies
in the can, in "development hell" and
even just rumors of possible movies.
Whether it's true or not, it's still fun to
read about the possibility of Prrtty in
Pint 2 or an A-Ttam movie.
"Drew's Script-O-Rama"
(www.script-o-rama.com) can keep
you entertained for days, weeks, eter-
nity. Drew has a ton of movie screen-
plays, movie transcripts, television
scripts and even screenplays from
aspiring screenwriters. You can find
Quentin Tarantino's original screen-
play for Trur Ronumre, which contains
lots of stuff that didn't make it to the
movie's final version. You can pull up
an unmade David Lynch screenplay. It
would take you a very, very long time
to read all the stuff this guy has for you
at the click of a mouse.
There are two other movie sites I
find quite enjoyable. For basic movie
information and great links, there is
the Internet Movie Database
(http:us.imdb.com). Be forewarned,
however, the IMDB allows anyone to
post information about movies, often
leading to incredibly false information.
"Screen It" (www.screcnit.com) is
supposed to be a tool for parents to
know if a movie is OK for their kids to
see. It is also often downright hilarious
as it counts (very specifically) the
number of curse words, sex scenes,
etc. in a movie. Entire plots of movies
are often revealed through "Screen It"
analysis. So don't read it if don't want
to know.
There's lots and lots of other cool
movie sites on the webs, giving
Hollywood the stinky-fits. Gotta love

play a song rather than pretending to
be some grandiose comic character?
Da Brat dressed up as a Roman
Centurion? Come on. Tle only R&B
performers with any dignity were the
old school boys, Will Smith and LL
Cool J, and why weren't they perform-
ing?
As for the awards themselves, they
went, as usual, to those performers
who least deserved them (such as Puff
Daddy and No Doubt), with the
exception of Beck, who won Best
Direction and technical things hke
that, but I still say he was robbed.
Countless other video works of
genius went completely unmentioned
in the show, such as Guided By
Voices' outstanding "Bulldog Skin
Radiohead's "Paranoid Android and
any videos by any member of the Wu
Tang Clan.
So, I humbly offer these awards to
the real winners of Saturday night's
contest. Best at singing longing lulla-
bies about God while stili looking
sexy: Jewel. Best at telling it like it is:
Fiona Apple, who declared on live
television that "this entertainmentl
world is bullshit
Best cowboy hat with antlers: John
Popper. Best hip-hop mythology: Wu
Tang Clan. Best Comeback: Will
Smith. Best: Beck.
The evening's overall losers were
Jennv McCarthy, Mariah Carey and
Puff Daddy. The Top Position for
Loser is a tie between Marilyn
Manson, who is a dumbass and could
stand to think of a more clever rebel-
lion, and MTV who has forgotten
what the "M" means.
The Video Music Awards will
probably be rerun to death for the
next month at least once a day That's
30 more chances for you to avoid it at
all costs, unless you're like me and you
need an excuse to be GenerationX-ish
and complain.

ECU had hoped to go into Mountaineer Held at West
Virginia and tome awav with a win. but instead thev came
up short for the second straight vcar.
The Pirate offense started off slowlv but the momen-
tum swung their way toward the end of the first quarter.
WVt got on the board first with a Jav Taylor 42-yand field
gOal to put the Mountaineers ahead 3-0 with 4:47 left in
the first.

Styes allowed the Pirates to keep their drive alive with less
than lour minutes left in the first quarter. From the ECU
7-vard line. Haves received the ball and saw two defenders
coming toward him but saw a huge opening to his left.
Instead of risking a blocked punt. Haves ran for 23 vards and
the EC! first down. In the process, he fumbled'the bali.
but fortunately the ball bounced right back up into his
hands and he continued on to the VVVU 40-vard line.
Hayes noted that this wasn't a planned plav. he just took
the initiative to get the first down. He also talked about the
near disaster of losing the ball.
"I took it up and thought about punting it. but then I
saw the opening and just tried to get the first down for the
team Bases said. "I'm not a run-

That effort, along with six punts
that averaged 44.5 vards, including
two kicks that rolled dead inside
the drive yard-line, and a 46-yard
field goal earned Hayes the
Conference ISA Special teams
player of the week.

found a wide open Trov Smith in the end one for the 40-
yard score. ECU had the lead at 7-3.
fullback Scott Harley had a tough dav, onlv rushing for
12 yards and falling prey to an injured ankle in the second
quarter. At first glance .ogan thought the ankle was possi-
bly broken, but trainers assessed it was just badlv sprained.
He didn't return for the second half.
ECU took a 10-3 lead after Baves nailed a 46-vard field
goal with seven seconds left. At the half, ECU had only
completed 33 yards on the ground, and Head Coach Steve
Logan attributed the low yardage to an ECU offensive line
that couldn't effectively block on the run.
"Pass protection is decent but we can't run block
Logan said.
Gonzalez thought for the first game the offensive line
held rheir ground as best they could.
" I here were a couple of missed assignments and sure it
was a combination of missing assignments and missing of
couple of blocks, but our offensive line showed up todav
and played well Gonzalez said.
West Virginia's first possession in the second half proved
profitable for the Mountaineers as Amos Zereoue ran in a
seven yard touchdown for the 10-10 tie. Zereoue finished
with 199 yards on the day.
Logan knew going into the match up that Zereoue
would be the player to watch, and saw a lot of improvement
from last year's 111 yard performance against ECU to this
year's performance.
"He's special I.ogan said. "He's better than he was last

ECU's Cross Country Program got
out of the blocks well over the week-
end as both women's and men's
teams placed highly in their first
n.xtsof the season.
The Lady Pirates, under the
direction of Couch "Choo" Justice,
placed second at the VCU
Invitational held in Richmond, Va
This meet varied slightly from the
original cross-country format. The
women were placed in teams of two
and their times were added together
for a total score.
"It (the meet) was more of a high-
powered practice ? that allowed us
to get our feet wet Justice said.
Several Lady Pirates finished
within seconds of one another.
'We have good depth which will
lead to good cross-country scores later
on Justice said.
The duo of senior Karen Reinhard
and sophomore Robin Bates finished
third overall, highest of any of the
Pirate runners.
"Everyone really ran well
Reinhard aid.
Hates attributes her success to her
teammates.
"We all push each other pretty
hard at practice Bates said.
The men were also in action as
they plac first in the at the I C-
WilmiiiL .n "Scahawk" Invitational
on liidav.
Sophomore Justin England was
the top Pirate finisher. He placed
fourth overall.
Freshman Stuart Will was the sec-
ond Pirate to cross the line. Will
placed sixth in the meet which was
the first of his collegiate career.
ECU Assistant Coach Mike Ford
was pleased with the team's overall
performance.
"VVe did very well. 1 was pleased
we ran 14 guvs. Many freshman met
personal goals.
Both teams return to action Friday
in Chapel Hill at the University of

Preparation begins for home opener

ECU will have to put the West Virginia loss behind
them and prepare for a Wake Forest team that
knocked off Northwestern, 27-20 on Saturday
The Demon Deacs will be the home opener for
the Iirates this Saturday at 3:36 p.m. and the game
will be televised regionally on Fox Sports South.
A sting of injuries from the Mountaineers has left
the Pirates banged up. Kendrick Phillips, Rod
Coleman, Norris McClcary and Scott Harley all suf-
fered ankle injuries on the astroturf of Mountaineer
Held. Ixgan didn't know if Harley would be back for
this weekend's game, but said on a positive note
that his injury isn't as bad as initially thought.
"It's not as severe as we thought Logan said. "I
really thought it was broken. Everybody responds
differently to those things. Some kids will roll an
ankle and come back. 1 think Scott will be a quick
healer, but we'll just have to see
Logan is grateful that the injuries are not to the
knees, which usually take longer to heal and many
are season ending.
"I'm thankful they're not knees Logan said.
"That's the way I look at it. As long as it's not a knee
injury or a shoulder displacement, you can kind of
get a kid back
Many fans may not see Wake Forest as a tough
match up but Logan says beware because they are a
good football team.
"Wake Forest is a good football team that's going
to be hard for a lot of people to digest given their
recent history Logan said. "They have a lot of kids
back who have played a lot of football from last
year
This will be the third meeting in the two schools'
historv with ECL' taking a 1963. 20-13 decision in
Greenville and the Deacs snagging the last meeting
23-20 in 1979 at Wmston-Salem.
This is the first of two ACC schools ECU will
play this season, and while many fans feel this is an
important match up because they are ACC, Logan
sees it as just another team.
"To me, I've been here nine years and we've had
Big East, we've had SEC. you name it. we've had it
in here Logan said. "But I do understand the
meaning of it
Since this is the first home game, Logan hopes to
see the stands packed with cheering fans.
"I hope everybody will come and fire things up
and we can set a new record for a home attendance
Logan said. "That will be fun. The players are
counting on it, the coaches are counting on it. We
get that thing rocking out there maybe we can put a
victorv out there

Golf team finishes third
The ECU golf team captured a third-place finish at the

a 314 on the final 18 holes for a two-day total of 608.
Georgetown won the tournament with a score of 602, while
Penn State finished second (606).
"I'm disappointed said head coach Kevin Williams.
'This is similar to last season, when we would play well in
the first or second rounds, get in good position, and not do
well in the final round
Sophomore Robbie Perry had a career-best finish as he
placed second (tied) with a score of 147. He shot a four-
over par 76 on Sunday, and was just one stroke away from
first place finisher Matt Finger of Georgetown. Perry, along
with teammate Stephen Satteriy. led the tournament going
into the final round. Satteriy finished the tournament tied
for seventh with a score of 152.

Virginia Tech sophomore forward Shannon Otto
(Midlothian. Va.) scored a pair of goals as the Hokies
defeated the ECU Pirates, 4-1, here Sunday at the Tech
Soccer Field. With the win. Virginia Tech evened its mark
at 2-2; while the Pirates dropped to 1-3 on the season.
Junior midfielder Katie Irish (Clifton, Va.) opened the
game's scoring for the Hokies at the 18:01 mark when she
knocked one in off the crossbar from 14 yards out. Otto
would get on, the scoreboard at 32:31 in the first half when
she played a pass from senior defender Monica Maxwell
(Germantown, Md.) and fired a shot into the back of the
net past ECU keeper Amy Horton (Raleigh).
At the 39:24 mark. Otto would add her second goal from
17 vards out for a 3-0 Hokie advantage at the half. For the
first 45 minutes, Virginia Tech registered nine shots on
goal: while the Pirates had three. Both goalkeepers, Dani

Sophomore forward Jennifer Reiley (Alexandria, Va.)
would record the Pirates' goal when she blasted one in
from 18 vards. ECU midfielder Courtney Jurcich

lied 17. Cara Morgridge (Burke, Va.) anchored the back
line for the Pirates in the second half, recording two saves.
DeSerio notched a total of six saves in goal for the Hokies.
"I thought we started the match well today said ECU
head coach Neil Roberts. "We were playing solid defen-
sively, but when Virginia Tech scored its first goal, it hurt
our attack. We were unable to sustain an attacking style
and get back into the game after that goal. In the second
half our plav was much improved, and we hope we can
build on the last 20 minutes we played today as we prepare
for our CAA opener
The Pirates will return to action on Wednesday, Sept.
10, when they make their final stop on their three-game
road swing through Virginia at CAA-foc William & Mary.
The match will be the conference opener for ECl :

ning its conference opener 7-1 over Old Dominion last

tered three goals and the Buccaneers of Charleston
Southern would go on to defeat the Pirates, 4-0, Saturday
at the CSU Soccer Complex. With the loss, ECU's record
now stands at 1-2.
1 eese scored his firsr two gnnls off of penalrv kicks. His
nrstcameat the 8:15 mark for a 1-0 Buccaneer advantage.

ECU battled back and took the
lead with 2:51 left in the third when
Jamie Wlson took a four yard pass
from Gonzalez. The Pirates took the
17-10 lead and looked to be on their
way to a possible victory.
But the next play would prove to
be the thorn in the Pirates side as
Bayes punted one down field to Nate
Terry, who then proceeded to tear
down the field for the 100-yard kickoff
return for the 17-17 tic. After that, the
momentum was in favor of West
Virginia.
Logan said they had worked on
special teams for a situation like that.
"That kickoff return, that's just a
shame Logan said. "I can't tell you
how hard we've worked on special
teams for that to happen but a kid
made a play
Smith, who finished with 126
yards, agrees.
"We were high before that and the
kick return just pushed it down a bit
Smith said. "We thought the offense
would come back and try to make a
play but they didn't
WVU would score one final time
with 13:15 left in the game as Zereoue
had a nine-yard run to put the
Mountaineers up for good, 17-24, as
they went on for their second straight
win against ECU in Mountaineer
Field.
Gonzalez threw for 279 yards and
one touchdown with no interceptions
and felt the timing on the passing
game was on cue.
"For the first game, our timing on
the passing game was pretty good
Gonzalez said. "It's always tough to go
out for your first game against an
opponent like that
Logan was impressed with the
effort.
"He was under tremendous stress
and he continued to throw strikes
Logan said. "He's a big time guy
The Pirates will look for their first
win this Saturday as they host Wake
