ECU receives additional $3.1 million in equity funding
Allocation of equity funding
Additional funds

NEWS EDITOR
Included in ECU's budget plan this year is an addi-
tional J.V1 million that the university traditionally
has not received.
Last year, the results of a study were released
which showed that ECU, along with four other
UNC institutions, were not receiving as much
funding as they should have been. The General
Assembly then made plans to supply those schools
with additional funds in the future.
"It (equity funding) recognized that we were
underfunded compared to our peer institutions
said Richard Brown, Vice Chancellor of
Administration and
Finance. "It will
become a part of our
continuation budget
The additional money
will be allocated for
new computers and
other equipment
(such as fax machines
or copiers), salaries for
new positions, and
operating expenses.
"A great portion of it is
going to technology

"There are ten computer

In addition to the new
computers, faculty will also
be receiving upgrades on
existing computers.
"They're going to try to

then, every two to three years, there'll be another

The ECU Police Department has a new tool
in crime control: the World Wide Web. The
ECU PD's website now offers an area where
students, faculty or anyone can report a crime
anonymously.
.After view ing a number of university police
departments' websites and learning about
their crime tip pages, the ECU PD initiated
their own page in June.
"We've only had one
crime reported so far
said ECU PD Detective
Mike Jordan.
.Although the tip was
not information the
police department could
act on. Jordan said the
information was useful,
in that it is something
they could look out for in
the future.
The witness is not
required to give a name.
"If a student doesn't
feel like they are being
put under the spotlight,
they might feel more apt
to report something,
without them feeling
like it will come back to
haunt them Jordan
said.
Those who have
reported incidents can
check up on the police's progress on solving
the crime. "When you send the message, a
number will be given, and those who want to
check on the certain incident can be updat-
ed said Jordan.
There is also a chance for a reward for any-
valuable clues provided.
"It is possible that if there is some good
information that helped solve the crime, and
an arrest is made, we can bring in Crime
Stoppers to reward the witness for their infor-
mation said Jordan.
The web page also offers, among
other things, campus crime stanstics for the
last tour years, campus crime prevention tips
and an "Alert" page, used to notify web

"There is a model

There are several factors which can
increase tuition that are unpredictable. "The
addition of the rec center certainly helped
bring in new people. A good football
season never hurts and the aggres-
siveness of admissions when
recruiting are all factors
Thompson said.
'The total number of students last
fall was 17,47�- which was an
increase from 17,445 in 1995.
The spring semester total will not
be quite as high due in part to grad-
uation. "Spring is always lower and
usually about 95 percent of the fall
total Thompson said.
The increase in students is evident

one thing that will not change is

tion of large classes. The current

"the culmination of
many years of hard

Other officials
attending the ceremo-

"Today is certainly a
day to celebrate and a
dav to anticipate other
changes to the medical
school Mayor Nancy
Jenkins said.
The medical school
has turned to building outlying clinics as a
way to deal with decreasing space in the hos-
pital building. Recently a women's facility
was opened as was a new building on
Fire tower Rd.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery were
formerly housed in the Leo Jenkins Cancer
Center for more than 15 years, but because
of space limitations needed to move to a dif-
ferent location so services could be expanded.
" lechnologv has changed so much over
the last few years that we really needed to

vices Wooden said.
Wooden hopes that the new facility will
allow the medical school to trv new proce-
dures and methods of treating patients. The
center is a Beta-site for a PC based Medvision
and telemedicine program.
According to Wooden this could allow
medical workers to document, interview and
transmit patient information from out in the
field to doctors in hospitals.

Video interviewing available to students
Senate committee recommends confirmation of
Sheltort as JCS chief
WASHINGTON AP) � The Senate Armed Services Committee recom-
mended Senate confirmation of Gen. Henry H. Shelton today as chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
A vote by the fuH Senate could come as carry as tonight. The committee
voted 11-0 to endorse the four-star Army general and current chief of the U.S.
Special Operations Command.
The 55-year-old native of Speed, N.C would be the first member of the
elite Green Beret to rise to the nation's top military post. Shelton is a deco-
rated combat veteran of the Vietnam War.
The committee vote came a day after Shelton appeared- before the panel
and pledged his support for continued high combat readiness of front-line
troops, for increasing weapons spending and for bringing U.S. troops home
from Bosnia by next June.
Female cadet mum on suspension; father backs VMi
LEXINGTON, Va. (AP) � Angelica Garza was a gung-ho Virginia Military
Institute recruit. Of 30 women in the inaugural coed class, she was first to
attend an open house last fall, weaving around TV cameras to get a barracks
tour.
The prospective students were told about the physical and mental rigors
cadets experience and even watched an upperclassman harass a freshman in
a tradition known as the rat line, similar to boot camp.
On Tuesday, Miss Garza became the first woman to leave VMI involun-
tarily, suspended for two semesters for striking an upperclassman who was
disciplining her.
She declined to talk about the incident or her suspension wher, reached

Her father, Army Chief Warrant Officer Pete Garza, said VMI handled the
situation appropriately but would not say what caused thst suspension.
Technology brings
interviewers to
ECU
JONI SURETTE
STAFF WRITER
Striving to remain on the cutting edge
of technology, East Carolina
University is one of the first colleges
to offer video conference interviews
to potential graduating students and
alumni.
While there are only ten other
North Carolina universities participat-
ing thus far, ECU had video confer-
encing available during the spring
semester of last year.
This new method of interviewing
offers students an easy alternative to
long flights and sweaty palms.
Students can interview with clients
across the United States and interna-
tionally and never leave campus.
While making an appointment
through Career Services is currently
the only available method of access for
students, in the future, Career
Services hopes to allow students to
have personal computer access from
their residence hall room.
"With the year 2000 quickly
approaching our goal is to keep stu-
dents with the latest technology at
their fingertips said Jill Nowicki,
university accountant manager for
View Net in Madison, Wisconsin.
This new service offers a wider
applicant pool for major corporations
as well as job-hungry grads. Major
companies, such as IBM, Proctor and
Gamble, Exxon, Citibank, as well as
achovia, have joined the video con-
ference bandwagon.
"fiw ECU students to have this
service available is a wonderful thing
said Debra Baker, assistant director of
Career Services, acting also as video
conference administrator.
Thh's service is free for students
who are interested. Prior to the actual
interview, the applicant must first
submit a resume to the Career
Services, then to the actual company
to initiate an interview. Once an affir-
mative response is received from the
potential employer, the student must
first participate in a 30-45 minute
training session on how to use the new
video conferencing tool prbfessjonalry.
Several companies are accepting
applications for interviews in the
upcoming months. WalMart's session
is Oct. 27 and Scars' session is Nov.
17-19.
Career Services plans to hold a
workshop for students to introduce
interviewing assignment conferenc-
ing.
"The bottom line is, this is avail-
able for students and we want them to
take advantage of it said Baker.
For more information on video
conferencing contact Career Services

Lawyers for Paufa Jones allowed to quit
harassment lawsuit
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) � Paula Jones's new legal team will receive no
extra time to prepare for her sexual harassment lawsuit against President
Clinton even though her two top lawyers quit and a third said he planned to
do the same.
VS. District Judge Susan Webber Wright directed that the case cay on
course for trial beginning May 27.
Attorneys Gilbert Davis and Joseph Cammarata were allowed to withdraw
Tuesday from Mrs. Jones's lawsuit because of "fundamental differences of
opinion" with her about how the case should proceed. They promoted a set
tlement she had rejected, her spokeswoman said.
Mrs. Jones has yet to announce new lawyers.
Clinton's attorneys, led by Robert S. Bennett, said they were ready to
move toward a trial.
Mrs. Jones claims that Clinton asked her to perform oral sex on him when
they attended a conference together at a Little Rock hotel in May 1991. He
was governor and she was a state employee. Clinton denies the allegations
and has said he docs not recall meeting Mrs. Jones.
Mrs. Jones's lawyers requested permission to leave after she rejected set-
tlement terms that her spokeswoman, Susan Carpenter McMillan, said the
lawyers had pushed: $700,000 and a vague statement of regret from the pres-
ident for any damage to her reputation.
California Senate sends governor bill to curb junk guns
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) � The sure Legislature has sent the governor
a bill aimed at halting the manufacture and sale of cheap handguns in
California, which produces most of the "Saturdav night specials" sold in the
United States.
The measure would apply the same standards the federal government has
applied to imported handguns since 1968.
Five Los Angeles-area manufacturers produce 80 percent of the so-called
"junk guns" sold in the United States, according to the federal Justice
Department.
Gov. Pete Wilson has not taken a position on the bill, passed Tuesday by
the state Senate on a vote of 22-15. The Assempry passed it last month, 42-
The bill by state Sen. Richard Poianco would ban the manufacture and
sale of "nonsporting handguns" after Jan. 1,1999. It defines them as weapons
that fail to meet the federal standards for imports, which include restrictions
on the size of the barrel and frame and safety features.

Albright says she hopes Israel trip will
make difference
JERUSALEM (AP) � Secretary of State Madeleine Albright on Wednesday
extended her support to Israel in its straggle against terrorism but also urged
a resumption of land-for-peace negotiations with Arabs.
Hoping to salvage the peace process amid an ebb in Israeli-Palestinian
relations , Albright said, "We are with you in the battle against terror, we are
with you in the struggle for security
Calling on Israeli President Ezer Weizman, she hailed Israel's resilient
past, and said it had U.S. support in insisting that Palestinian leader Yasser
Ararat implement his commitments to counter terrorism.
But Albright also told Israel that security is inseparable from peace, a gen-
tle way of reminding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the Clinton
administration wants Israel to get back to the table and swap territory for
Arab recognition. She was scheduled to meet with Netanyahu later in the day

Mandatory HIV
reports encouraged
BOSTON (AP) � The distin-
guished Nm England Journal of
Mediant is urging mandatory
reporting of HIV infections to
state health departments to
increase the chances people will
get carry treatment.
More than half of all states now
require that the names of infected
people be reported to confidential
registries. However, New York and
California, the two with the most
cases by far, dc not require this.
Early in the epidemic, the need
to keep AIDS infections private
was often considered to be more
important than any public health
benefits of turning names over to
health agencies.
Opinion has shifted, and
mandatory reporting has grown
less controversial in recent years,
especially with the advent of treat-
ments for people who arc infected
but not yet sick.
In Thursday's issue of the jour-
nal, Or. Robert Steinbrook, a
deputy editor, said in an editorial
that infection with the AIDS virus
should be a reportable disease at
the federal level, just like tubercu-
losis and many sexually transmit-
ted illnesses, such as syphilis and
gonorrhea.
The editorial noted that this
would allow health agencies to
track down partners of infected
people so they could be warned of
their risk and get counseling and
treatment.
Protease inhibitors and other
AIDS drugs, used together, dra-
matically slow the progression of
an infection to full-blown AIDS.
Many doctors believe patients
should start treatment as soon as
possible after infection to improve
their chances of survival.
The same issue of the journal
published a study, directed by Dr.
Scott M. Hammer of Beth Israei
Deaconess Medical Center in
Boston, showing that AIDS
patients getting a combination of
the protease inhibitor indinavir,
plus the drugs AZT and lamivu-
dinc, had half the death rate of
those getting two drugs when fol-
lowed for nine months.
That study received wide
attention after the results were
released by the National Institutes
of Health, its sponsor, in February.
States with laws requiring HIV
reporting by name are Alabama,
Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho,
Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan,
Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri,
Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey,
New Mexico, North Carolina,
North Dakota, Ohio, Okalahoma,
South Carolina, South Dakota,
Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West
Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Connecticut, Oregon and Texas
require that only HlV-infected chil-
dren be reported by name.

NEW YORK (AP) � Women who
give birth in their 40s might have
an especially good chance of living
to 100, perhaps because those who
manage to get pregnant so late in
life have biological clocks that run
slow.
When researchers compared a
group of female centenarians to
women who had died at 73, they
found that the older women were
much more likely to have had a
baby after their 40th birthday.
That does not mean that having
a baby so late will make a woman
live longer, said researcher Dr.
Thomas Perls. Instead, the late
birth indicates that a woman's body
may be aging slowly, he said.
"If your reproductive system is
aging slowly enough that you can
have a child in your 40s, it probably
bodes well for the fact that the rest
of you is aging very slowly too he
said.
Peris, a geriatrician at the Beth
Israel-Deaconess Medical Center
in Boston, and two colleagues there
present their findings in
Thursday's issue of the journal
Nature. The results do not apply to
women who have had kids with the
help of fertility experts, he said.
Childbearing rates drop sharply
after age 40, although menopause
typically doesn't arrive until around
50. About 70,000 babies were born
to women in their 40s in the
United States during 1995, the lat-
est year for which complete figures
are available. That's a tiny fraction
of the 3.9 million babies bom that
year.
The new study included 78
women in suburban Boston who had
lived to be at least 100 and were
bom around 1896. They were com-
pared with 54 women who were
bom in 1896 and died in 1969, the
earliest year for which researchers
could get computerized death
records. Information on these
women came from next-of-kin,
located through old newspaper obit-
uaries. The study excluded women
who had never married.
About 19 percent of the cente-
narians had given birth after their
40th birthdays, vs. just 5.5 percent
of the other group. The women with
the late births were found to be four
times more likelv to live to 100 than
73.
One reason might be estrogen,
the researchers sad. The late births
suggest these women delayed
menopause, which might mean their
bodies produced estrogen for a
longer time and so got extra protec-
tion from heart disease and
Alzheimer's, researchers said
Dr. Ruth Fretts, an obstetrician-
gynecologist and an author of the
study, said women who have been
unable to have children past age 40
should not be discouraged about
their longevity. The problem could
be something that has nothing to do
with their aging rate, she said.
Caleb Finch, a professor of neuro
biology and gerontology at the
University of South California who
didn't participate in the study, said
the proposed link between late
childbearing and slower aging is
plausible.
Perls has a personal interest in his
study results: His wife just gave
birth at 40. "I have no doubt she's
going to go on to be 100 he said.

Another large allotment will be
used for day to day operating
expenses and supplies. Plummet
said that operating expenses are one
of the areas most in need of addi-
tional funding, because of the con-
sistent price increases for everyday
items such as paper.
"As a general rule, we don't get
money to cover those (incteases). In
the five years I've been here, we
have gotten wry little money for
operating increases from year to
ear Rummer said. "That's why
that latge portion of that $3.1 mil-
lion is going to operating expenses
.According to Brown, the discrep-
ancy in funding occurred because
ECl experienced significant enroll-
ment increase in the 80's and carry
90s, a time period when the state
was not able to match the school's
growth with comparable funding.
The other schools which were
previously underfunded are UNC-
Charlotte. Appalachian State
University, UNC-Greensboro and
FNCAVilmington.
No funding was taken from ether
schools to provide the equity fund-
ing to the five previously under-
funded schools.

As anyone with a computer can

The police department normally
receives reports from students or
faculty who happen to be victims
rather than witnesses of a crime,
such as theft, and so the department
is often left wirh nothing to go on.
"Chances are, when a crime occurs,
there is somebody there who will

opinion
The Eett Carolinian
oumew
The ECU Police Department is looking to the World Wide Web as a way of getting additional
information about crimes and perpetrators of crime. The department hopes students and oth-
ers who are hesitant to report crimes over the telephone or in person will be more likely to pro-
vide information anonymously over the internet. But will this new tool be a benefit to scared
victims of crimes or will result in unnecessary harassment of innocent citizens?
The Web has a tremendous wealth of information. Unfortunately, it is often abused by people
who find satisfaction in posting inaccurate information. When this inaccurate information is
about a movie or a music group, for instance, it is likely only to be a mere nuisance to those
involved. But when inaccurate information is posted about a person's alleged criminal actions,
much more is at stake. Their life, as they know it, is at stake. Their credibility is at stake. If an
innocent suspect is arrested at their place of employment, they may be cleared by authorities,
but their employers and co-workers will remain suspicious regardless.
Reporting crimes over the Web is incredibly convenient. Convenience often leads carelessness.
It's easy, little to do, little to think about. Practical jokers have it right there at their fingertips
� and college students are apt to pull a prank if it's so easy. There's very little risk involved for
them. You'll get caught if you file a false report in person. Over the telephone, it could be traced
back to you. But on the information highway, there's no trail. It's easy. No risk. The only risk is
for the person whose life will be interrupted by someone else's idea of a joke.
Computer technology has been beneficial in innumerable ways. The world's right there on the
screen. But it also has made it easy for us to not be accountable for our actions. In the end, will
justice be served?
OPINION
Mary
.AEBB
Columnist
Journalist, paparazzi not one in same
A reputable newspaper like
the Los Angeles Times is
quite different from a tabloid
like The Enquirer, yet
both are within the same con-
text of print journalism. And
both are being blamed
for the tragic events leading
up to the death of Princess
Diana.
My significant other called me from
Japan, which is where he lives.
"Journalists are the scum of the
earth he bellowed into the phone.
He was, of course, reacting to the
death of Princess Diana and had, like
everyone else, painted the entire
media population with the same
brush.
"Do you really have to make this
disgusting stuff your career?" he
pleaded, forgetting that I'm graduat-
ing this fail and that journalism is my
passion. It took some time to con-
vince him that the media is a huge
entity with different components and
that it should be treated as such.
First and foremost, there are vari-
ous fields of media, starting with elec-
tronic media which covers television,
radio and the internet. Print journal-
ism and public relations are the other
two aspects. Within these divisions
are intricate distinctions themselves.
A reputable newspaper like the Los
Angeles Tunes is quite different from a
tabloid like The Enamrer, yet both are
within the same context of print jour-
nalism. And both are being blamed�
directly as well as indirectly�for the
tragic events leading up to the death
of Princess Diana.
What explains the extreme anger
and deep resentment people all over
the world have developed toward any-
one remotely connected to the
media? Some of it is definitely war-
ranted, because just like any other
profession, the media also has its
share of unethical employees.
However, obvious facts connected to
the accident are being pushed aside.
Not enough people are paying atten-
tion to evidence that the driver was
allegedly drunk, that he was speeding
and that Diana and Dodi were not
wearing their seatbelts.
Politicians and entertainment
stars are now ranting and raving about
their own loss of privacy. They conve-
niently forget that they manipulate
the press for their personal agendas
when it suits them. Every person
cherishes the basic right of privacy,
but the fact remains that the media
fulfills a service that is demanded and
dictated by the public. If the public
was not interested in Princess Diana,
believe me, no journalist or photogra-
pher would have bothered following
her around. They would not have
hidden in bushes, ready to jump out
the moment she appeared; they
would not have followed her to chari-
ties and functions and, above every-
thing else, they would not have tail-
gated her car, causing the fatal crash.
The world has lost a beautiful
princess and the media has tost a
superstar. It is not a time to point fin-
gers. It's a time to reflectand to
learn.

LETTER
�to the Editor
City Council candidate expresses view s
I am writing in response to Jason
Williams' recent letter to the editor in
which he discusses one of
Counci (woman Inez Fridley's many
conflicts of interest. Yes, there is merit
to the argument that she has a finan-
cial conflict with the horrid parking
situation at ECU. And it is also true
that she recently appointed her boss
(the Chancellor) to the Community
Appearance Commission. Why do I
say this? Because I am the former
member and current City Council
candidate which she dropped in order
to increase the board to five ECU
cniploycc-incmljers � including the
chairperson and council liaison. It's
not illegal�just unethical, since our
boards and commissions are supposed
to be representative of the population
� not one group.
So what was lost with my replacement
Chancellor Eakin? For starters, the
$60,000 Department of
Transportation grant completion of
Purple and Gold on Highway 11 from
Carolina East Mall to the airporr in
honor of Dr. Leo Jenkins. This has
been my main goal on the commis-
sion. We began this project in front of
Pitt Community College two years
ago and 1 do not feel the city will com-
plete it now.
Secondly, while I was chairman of the
Landscape Committee, wc propped
a giant Greenville and ECU Pirates
logo on the overpass entering
Greenville. This was planned to be
ready by the ECU-Carolina football
game here. The DOT agreed to fund
this, but the project is in hiatus
because certain city officials don't
want to take care of it. The irony of all
this is that the football field is being
named after my college roommate in
two weeks. It proves bureaucrats want
your money, not your input.
So, now you have a few reasons why I
Ma
am a candidate for City Council $g
District 4 (College Hill Brivfi
District). Obviously, your vote on
4 will determine the quality of yoiS
life the next two years. I question wSJJ
ECU needs five employees on a ciJJ
goverment commission. By the wag
the Chancellor didn't even show u
for his first meeting. We have reaches
gridlock in the government by artotgg
er special interest group tod by Mop
Fridtey! She has tied up this commit
sion for nine months, worried abojg
whether property owners should ha�
the right to cut down a tree on thew
own land. When Mrs. Fridlcy said slS
represented the students and homtS
owners of ECU, you can believe that J
you also believe a warden represent
inmates. S

LETTER
to the Editor
Student opposes TRNA, ordinance
I am writing in defense of your cov-
erage of Greenville's harsh occupan-
cy law. Please keep up the good
work! Every citizen and student has a
right to know and to act in this year's
elections to have this law changed. I
found the recent letter to the editor
by Cheryl Ridder, the president of
the Tar River Neighborhood
Association, both misleading and dis-
turbing.
In her letter she claims, "this type of
ordinance is routine in other cities I
think that she is misleading because
only a handful of cities in North
Carolina have such an ordinance and
Greenville and New Bern have the
lowest in the state by evicting more
than three unrelated people.
Secondly, does the Tar River
Neighborhood Association really
expect us to believe that their orga-
nization wants to make things better
for renters? They should explain that
to all of the people who have been
evicted over the years. Tell them that
you are acting in their best interest.
TEC should not let people like
Ridder try to intimidate them
because this is not an issue to "polar-
ize the neighborhood I believe that
the people who support Greenville's
three-person occupancy law as it
stands, which allows anonymous
phone calls to put inspectors in your
house, are a small minority. My opin-
ion is that you can probably find this
small group of fanatics in the TRNA
or on Inez Fridley's campaign. But,
no younger person in their right mind
would support rhc TRNA or
Fridley's campaign and I believe it
would take an older person with a
very cruel and bitter heart to support
either as long as this law remains. If
either one wanted our support, they
should have changed this law to four
people a long time ago. I'm for Steve
McLawhorn for City Council and I
encourage your readers to register to
vote now and for everyone with a
heart to show up on election day this !
year. �

pop as well as Massachusetts foikie
Dar Williams.
Her latest, End of the Summer, is a
beautiful, highly enjoyable listening
experience that maintains the integri-
ty and independent spirit of her cof-
feehouse beginnings, yet suggests an
assessability that will go a long way in
increasing Williams fan base.
Often those of the singersong-
writer ilk embarrass themselves with
overly introspective lyrics that sound
like little more than a pity party: I'm a
big drunk and pink flowers make me
cry. Williams' introspection offers
much more than shallow whining; her
lyrics are honest, human and pretty
damn humorous. In "What do bu
.Hear in These Sounds Williams' tale
Mrom the quack couch, she sings, "I
riSon't go to therapy to find out if I'm a
� 3 freak! go and I find the one and only
answer every weekAnd it's just me
and all the memories to followDown
any course that fits within in a fifty
minute hourand we fathom all the
mysteries, explicit and inherent
when I hit a rut, she says try the other
parent Through her humor she
reveals a lot about her self, without it
generating into pathetic psycho- bab-
ble.
Williams also gets at your funny
bone on the ultra-catchy "Party
Generation The song tells the story
of a 34-ycar-old party boy who can't
find anyone to play reindeer games
with anymore. A clap-your-hands-
like-you-just-don't-care dance beat is
accompanied by a chorus that's about
as silly as its over-the-hill party boy:
"Tonight we're going to the partyWe
will parry all night longWe are the
party generationSo have a seat,
what's in the bagParty on At first I
thought Wayne and Garth should sue
for copyright infringement, but I
swear I can't get "Party Generation"
out of my head.
Williams dedicates "If I Wrote You"
to the late Texas singersongwriter
Townes Van Zandt. Beauty invades
this song, its haunting melody, cour-
tesy of guitarist Larry Campbell, and
Williams gorgeous vocals nearly over-
come you. The lyrics would make Van
Zandc proud: "And when the spring
came and flooded all the streams, it's
like how you got the night you told me
all your dreamsAnd when the barn
roof sagged after an icy bout, it's like
how you shrugged when you knew the
truth was the only way out, but not
the only way Call them gulp-in-the-
rhroat lyrics, that's the only way to
describe them.
There are plenty more good songs
on this one, including the ode ro

ECU poetry group celebrates 30th
John Davis
ASSISTANT I.IKKSTH E EDITOR
When he was an undergraduate, Professor Peter
Makuck had no outlet for his interest in writing
poetry. Now, over twenty years later, he is the staff
advisor for ECU's student-run Poetry Forum.
The program was begun by Professor Vernon
Ward thiny years ago in order to provide students
and community members an opportunity to read
and workshop original poems without having to
endure the rigors and academic atmosphere of a
poetry class. After Ward retired, Makuck replaced
him. It was Makuck who first convinced the SGA to
provide funding for the Forum, which has allowed
the Forum to bring in visiting poets to read and give
advice.
Some of the past poets who have graced the
Forum include Pulitzer Prize winners such as Lewis
Simpson and Carolyn ki.er. Most of the poets who
are guests of the Forum arc published writers. This
semester, for the first time, a graduate of ECU will
be returning to read at the Poetry Forum. Al
Maginnes, who has recently published his first vol-
ume of poetry, was a graduate of ECU's well-known
writing program. Other poets featured this year will
include Michael Chitwood and Harry Maxon.
The Poetry Fonim is a poetry workshop, which
means that aspiring poets bring their work in and
read it, as well as providing copies for the other
members of the Forum to look over. A short oral cri-
tique follows, during which fellow writers offer crit-
icism, advice and encouragement. Usually the group
numbers about twenty people and the sessions last
between one and two hours. A wide variety of peo-
ple attend the Forum, from students to professors to
members of rhe Greenville community. Makuck
acts as an organizer and general mediator at the
workshops.
Although there has, in the past, been an idea that
the Forum is stuffy, academic and filled with sleepy
poetry, Makuck strongly maintains this is net the
case. He feels confident that some exciting and
interesting poetry graces the Forum and, as a pub-
lished poet, is quite pleased with the amount of
improvement in many attendees of the Fonim.
Poets who are interested are encouraged to
attend this semester's first meeting which will be
this Wednesday. Officers for the Forum will be elect-
ed. The ECU Poetry Forum meets the first and
third Wednesday of each month. Meetings begin at
8 p.m. in Mendenhall 248.
CIA to display maps in Mendenhall
John Davis
ASSISTANT LIFESTYLE EDITOR
There's potential to get a big case of the "so
whats" at the first thought of Africa, A Continent
Revealed in the Mendenhall gallery. Maps? Why
should an ECU student care about some dusty old
maps from the vaults of the CIA?
"I think the interest h Africa is three-
Rwanda is one of the places that will be examined in
Africa, A Continent Revealed.

fold says Michael Toth of the CIA. "Firstly, ECU
has a respected Geography department. The his-
tory of mapping the African continent is also the
history of European understanding of Africa.
Secondly, any student with interest in geopolitics
would find the information on the continent valu-
able in light of recent world events such as the
crises in Rwanda and Barundi. Finally, in looking at
the lack of relationship between origins; tribal
boundaries and national boundaries imposed by
colonizing Europeans, one can see the sources of a
lot of these conflicts
Apparently these aren't Rand McNally
road maps here. Although these maps are on loan
from the CIA, they are also not "war maps
Instead, the maps include information on such
diverse subjects as agriculture, cities, climate, eth-
nicity, geology and population. The maps range
from antique maps from the colonial period to
recent digital maps. Some of the maps come from
the private collection of Toth himself.
Many of the maps from Toth's collection
couldn't be displayed here however. "The exhibit,
had the potential to be much larger, but due to
security reasons we couldn't display some of the
maps Lynn Caverly, assistant director of student
activities said. ECU did manage to get a sizable
amount though, including some very interesting
antique maps and a conflict zone map of Rwanda.
One of the most interesting aspects of
this particular exhibit is the fact that a former East
Carolina student is responsible for it. Stacy Russ
graduated last May with a geography degree and
was an intern at the CIA when she found out about
Explore Africa with new exhibit.
PN0T0 COURTESY OF CIA
the exhibit. "Stacy just came into my office and
gave us this opportunity to bring in something real-
ly unique and different and we jumped all over it
says Caverly.
The exhibit is part of the CIA's celebra-
tion of its fiftieth anniversary. The antique maps
came, for the most part, from Toth's private collec-
tion while the more recent maps were produced by
the CIA or acquired during World War II. The
maps arc part of the CIA's Map Library.
Africa, A Continent Revealed will be on dis-
play in the Mendenhall Gailery from September 15
to October 3. The gallery is accessible during
Mendenhall's regular operating hours.

13-year-old girls in my cabin com-
pared their methods of birth con-
trol. I was less than thrilled to live
through the heinous nightmare of
Operation Fun Week again.
My co-counselor, Tanya, and I
already had a preconceived notion
of what this week was going to be
like. I tried my best to look stern ,
baleful and to give off an aura of
pure meanness as the children,
accompanied by volunteers, clam-
bored off the buses. The children
collected their luggage, then stood
shyly in my shadow darkening the
grass. What I did not know at the
time, as I tried to imitate Hagar the
Horrible, was that these children
were going to teach me more than I
could ever teach them.
My first lesson was one in humil-
ity. It happened after they were
handed over to me with their
sheepish, curious faces. I looked at
their shabby, small suitcases and
asked, "Were is the rest of your
stuff?" Because of other campers
who were not part of Operation Fun
week, I was use'd to cutesy notes
stuffed in luggage, mounds of fans,
tons of bathing suits, smuggled
candy and radios.
Clearly this week was gt ing to
be different. These children had
nothing. I would soon discover they
would be grateful for everything
they had. Other lessons would fol-
low as each camper that week did
something or shared a tiny piece of
their lives disguised as a story that
touched me.
One day I was walking with this
small, emaciaced girl when I finally
questioned her about the huge scar
that ran snake-like down her neck.
"My brother shot me she said
simply, as if it were as natural as
breathing. "He in a gang, I spent
Christmas in a hospital, but I
strong Stunned, I took her hand
in mine. She seemed to not know
how to respond. The more her life
unfolded in her words, the more
grateful I became for mine.
Another girl swept constantly.
She would sweep and sweep and
sweep, as if possessed. I kept
demanding that she not do it and
she told me that her mama beat her
if she didn't sweep in her house. I
wrapped my arms around her and
prayed that God would never send
her back to that place.
I can't express how much the lit-
tle things they did meant, the small
victories. Children who had never
seen a lake before canoed like
pro's. Campers who were afraid of
horses grinned brightly as they
came in from their ride. The kids
even cleaned up the cabin as a sur-
prise for me.
Their childhoods were tainted.
Many did not have the warmth and
security of a loving milieu like I
experienced at that age. A child's
life should be light, airy and care-
free, but these children never felt
free to dance in the wind. Soon
they would be home. They would
worry again about where their next
meal would come from. They
would worry again about whether
their family would have enough
money to pay the rent. They would
worry again about having warm
clothes for the winter. But they
taught me that possessions don't
count. What you carry in your heart
can make you wealthy. I am the
camp counselor. I love my job.

CLAUDIA COATES
ASSOCIATE!) PRKSS WRITER
NEW YORK (AP) � In the paycheck race, Oprah Winfrey and her TV
parade of human triumphs and foibles has lost to Steven Spielberg and his com-
puter-generated dinosaurs. �
Spielberg, producer and director of The Lost World: Jurassic Plant, returns to
the top spot on Forbes magazine's list of the 40 best-paid entertainers � he
made $313 million in 19 and 1997. Winfrey is a distant third with $201 mil-
lion. � ,
Times have changed. So has Oprah. Her daily rare is much more tame, the
magazine noted in its Sept. 21 issue.
Special effects also brought George Lucas $241 million and a No. 2 ranking
� his debut on the list � after the re-release of his Star Wars trilogy.
And the author of Spielberg's Jurassic Park sequel, Michael Crichton, earned
$102 million and a No. 4 ranking, the highest any writer has reached.
"He's making more from the movie than he ever would from the book the
magazine said.
The rewards for star power are rising as the entertainment market becomes
more worldwide, Rwbes said in releasing its list Monday. Last year, Winfrey was
No. 1 with an income of only $171 million.
She and Spielberg had been trading first and second place since 1993.
Spielberg was previously No. 1 in 1995.
The magazine combined entertainers's two-year esti-
mated gross earnings to try to get a more accurate picture
of income.
The Beatles came in at fifth with $98 million, even
though they haven't recorded in more than a quarter cen-
tury, and Jerry Seinfeld was sixth with $94 million.
Magician David Gopperfield earned $85 million and a
No. 7 ranking. Tom Cruise was the highest-earning dra-
matic actor, with $82 million from Jerry Afaptirr and
Mission Impossible.
Some of the entertainers who fell off the Top 40 this
year were Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks, David Letterman,
Luciano Pavarotti and Denzel Washington.
They helped make way for first-timers, including
comedian Tim Allen (No. 13), winner of a fat contract to
stay with ABC and "Home Improvement singer Celine
Dion (No. 15), who sold 30 million records in two years;
and the movie directing-producing team of Ron Howard
and Brian Grazer (No. 24), responsible tor Apollo 13, Liar, Liarand Ransom.
Other newcomers were pop group Spice Girls (No. 32); Michael Fbtley (No.
25), the Irish-step-dancing star of the movie Lonlofthr Dantr, and the writer-
producers of TVs Friends � Kevin Bright, Marta Kauffman and David Crane
(No. 39).

Pirates hope to get on winning track
AMANDA ROSS
SPORTS EDITOR
When Wtke Forest comes to town this Saturday don't
expect the players or coaches to be all giggly just because
it's an ACC team.
These players and coaches have seen all sorts of teams
come to town from all kinds of conferences.
7ust another team to me fullback Scott Harley said.
"It doesn't matter what conference they're in. It's just
another chance for us to go out there and possibly win a
game
Flanker Jason Nichols said the Pirates need to be roar-
ing to go against any opponent they face.
"It's just a game we have to show up for and be ready to
play, no matter what Nichols said.
Nonetheless, Wake Forest is a formidable opponent, as
they proved last week beating Northwestern, who was
ranked 21st. Logan said he's seen a lot of changes from
this season to last.
"The receivers are top notch Logan said. The quar-
terback has thrown for a jillion yards over there. The offen-
sive line will protect him. They ran the football against
Northwestern. That's the biggest difference between last
year and this year
The Demon Deacs quarterback Brian Kuklick was the
ACC total offensive leader in 19, averaging 223.1 yards
per game. He started all 11 games last year, completed 52
percent of his passes and threw for a season total 2,526
yards with 11 touchdowns. Last week, Kuklick finished
with 273 yards and two touchdowns against the Wildcats.
In comparison, ECU quarterback Dan Gonzalez started

four games last season, also completed 52 percent of his
passes for 1,222 yards and seven touchdowns. Against Sfest
Virginia he threw for 279 yards and one touchdown.
Logan said he is glad the Deacs beat Northwestern
because it is an eye opener for the players and fans.
"I'm glad they won last week because it got our player's
attention Logan said. "I know it's going to get our fans
attention and, like I said, I think it will be a very hard
fought footbaii game
The Pirates will tell you they need
this win, not just for a "w" in the victo-
ry column but a boost for the morale.
"It's going to be a big game for us emo-
tionally Nichols said. "It's going to
mean a lot to us to go ahead and get
this win under our belt so we don't
feel the pressure of starting our season
off 0-2
Gonzalez agrees with his teammate
and said he's seen this before.
"We're ready to get back on the win-
ning track Gonzalez said. "Starting
off 0-1 is something we've done quite
a few times since I've been here. A lot
of guys are really upset and are ready
to make amends for what happened
last week. We just want to give a good

Pregpme tradition continues
JEREMY ANDERSON-
STAFF WRITER
: return of another college football
xn to Greenville brings another
fall tradition - tailgaring. It is a tradi-
tion as old as football itself, which
gives students, alumni, and other fans
a chance to relax and talk football.
While tailgating can be fun, there
arc also rules that must be followed to
ensure the safety of all the fans piling
into Dowdy-fickkn Stadium this fall.
"There will be a zero tolerance for
uncage drinking said Captain
Johnnie Umphlet of the ECU Police
Department. "You will be cited
ECU Police officials will not only
on the lookout for underage
drinkers.
"There can be no kegs or liquor,
regardless of age. We will enforce all
violations on these lots Umphlet
said.
The only lots that will be available
for tailgaters arc the Harrington Reld
Lot and the freshman lot at the Allied
Health Building.
The Athletic Department has cut
back on general parking this year, We
want the public to k ,ow that parking
will be very limited, Umphlet said.
The lots will be open later this sea-
son.
"The parking areas will only open
four hours prior to the game as
opposed to five hours last year
Umphlet sai .
Additional parking can be found
behind the stadium at Elmhurst
Elementary and transit buses will run
from the old Nichols parking lot on
Greenville Boulevard adjacent to the
Sheraton. However, parking in these
areas is not free and tailgacing is pro-
hibited.
The ECU Police is also asking for
vour help ro make sure everyone has a
good time.
"It would help us out a lot if fans
would not bring glass bottles to the
parking areas. While this is not
mandatory, it would help decrease
incidents such as flat tires Umphlet
said.
Time to pack stands, fans

SPORTS EDITOR
They say hree's a charm. So I'm trying again.
For the past two football seasons I have begged, plead-
ed and gotten down on my knees to get students to stay for
an entire home football game. Since this is my final football
season as a student and as sports editor before I graduate,
I am trying this groveling thing one last time.
It is so important that students like you pack the stands
for the entire football game. That means getting to the
game alxiut 20 minutes early and staying to the very end,
ves, the end of the game, not the end of the first half.
Obviously, I'm not a football player, but it breaks my
heart when 1 see the stands virtually empty at the half on
the student side. Most games are won or lost in the second
half and most of the student body is gone before the team
goes back onto the field for the third quarter.
I know rnilgaring is a rirual before fnorball games, but I
have a challenge for all of you. Try not to get so drunk and
obiterated that you pass out before you even enter the
gates to Dowdy-Ficklen. Wait until after the game, after we
win, until you go back for more beer.
'hie Pirates need to hear your enthusiasm throughout
the entire game. As many fans know, ECU games often
come down to the wire, sometimes to the last play or last
second on the clock. That's what college football is all ;
about. The thrill of victory in the remaining seconds of the !
game. I just can't understand why anyone would want to
miss out on a game like that.
Those football players work their, for lack of a better
term, asses off during the week in the hot sun. They work
for hours, not just on the field but in the weight room,
watching films, and homework. The very least we can do as
fans is to support them for three to four hours on a
Saturday afternoon.
Now many people say, "Amanda, when it rains we don't
want to get wet They have this channel called the weath-
er channel, watch it. If it looks like it might rain, bring a .
poncho or a raincoat. And for you all you ladies, maybe less
hair spray and make-up on game day if it's going to rain, or
even a bonnet to deal with nature's furry. I'd hate for you
to go to a football game and not look your Sunday best.
If the players and coaches have to be in the rain, why
can't we? Rain, shine or "sleeting sideways" as Logan once
said � rhe fans should be in rhe stands.
I'm not one to beg, but I'll make an exception in this
case. Those football players need to hear the roar of the
crowd for four straight quarters.
So now it's all up to you. See you at the game.

Tennis teams seek ace of a season
Melissa potter
STAFF WRITER
With a winning season behind them,
the men's and women's tennis teams
are pushing for the top of the confer-
ence.
Key returners for the Lady Pirates,
including Mona Eek and Anne-
Brigitte Svae, have built a strong foun-
dation for the newcomers. Welcoming
two freshmen and two transfers, these
ladies are going to put up a fight.
They're probably the best we've
ever had" Assistant Coach Brian
Jackson said.
Joining the team this season,
Jackson is haying to adjust to the team
just as the new girls have. By working
together, Jackson and Head Coach Bill
Moore hope to come out on top of the
other teams.
Physical fitness has been an impor-
tant concept for the ladies in promot-
ing a confident team. Their talent,
combined with strength, has given
them a season to took forward to. The
coaches expect the team to be com-
petitive in every match and have a
better chance of victory.
Placing fifth in the conference last
year, their goal for this season is a spot
in the top three.
"We just wipe the board clean and
go for it Jackson said.
With UNC-Wiimington, Davidson,
and Charleston breathing down their
neck, the Lady Pirates are going to
have to use their strength and deter-
mination to overcome their oppo-
nents. It's going to take more than a
few swings to win the ;e matches.
The men's team has several return-
ing players back
"Everybody's back Moore said.

The East Carolinian
Stadium makes progress
slowly but surely
Tracy Laubach
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
Qowdy-Hcklen Stadium's new upper level is well on its
way to being complete as 85 percent of the addition has
been finished.
Henry YanSani, assistant athletic director of ECU, said
that at last, Dowdy-Ficklen is starting to look like a stadi-
um again.
fost of the precast is finished, as tremendous
progress has been made in the past few weeks, " VanSant
said. An exact finish date has not been set at this point,
tever, 1 assume that construction will not be finished
il the later part of the season
'Installing railings and lighting is next on the list of
things to do for construction workers. Once that is done,
the seats can be installed and Pirate fans will have an addi-
tional 8,000 seats to cheer from.
The new level, when complete, will have men's and
women's restrooms, four concession stands, and a souvenir
shop.
For this weekend's home opener against Wake Forest,
5.1)00 temporary seats have been set up in the end zones to
accommodate all who will be in search of seats come 3:30
Saturday afternoon. 3,500 seats are in the west end zone,
while 1,500 have been set up in the east end zone and are
designated for students.
Students are encouraged to enter the stadium through

continued from page 10
They've put themselves in a
position to take the second or third
spot in the conference. Placing
fifth with last year's lineup of fresh-
men and sophomores, the strength
of the team has increased with
their returning experience. Good
athletics, a drive to win and a famil-
iarity with the conference are cer-
tainly this team's assets.
The main competition for the
men is going to be coming from
Virginia. William and Mary, Old
Dominion and Richmond will be
their top contenders, while VCU
remains number one.
Returner and captain Brett
Rowley leads the team.
While both teams are looking
very strong, they would like to gain
another player for both the men
and women.
The tennis team is also
announcing its ECU Tennis
Tournament, to be held September
26-28. Six schools have been invit-
ed including UNC-Wilmington,
UNC-Ashville, Appalachian, Elon,
Charleston Southern and Coastal
Carolina. This lineup includes
some of the toughest competition
in the conference. There's no
doubt the Pirates will put up a
fight.

The East Carolinian
Soccer off to slow start as injuries plague team
STEVE LOSEY
SENIOR WRITER
ECU's men's and women's soccer teams have begun
their season plagued by injuries and troubled with losses
in their first few games. As of Sept. 9, the women's team
is 1-3 and the men's team is 1-2. m
"We're going through a iittle bit of a tough time, said
women's Head Coach Neil Roberts.
The women's team is suffering from injuries that have
disrupted their game. To compensate for the loss,
Roberts has shifted the positions of many of the players.
The season opened on Aug. 30 with a 1-0 loss against
Liberty. In their next game, the Pirates defeated Barton
in a 5-0 blowout. The next two games were tough losses
for the Pirates. On the sixth, they lost to Radford 2-1 and
the next day lost to Virginia 4-1.
"We're in a bit of a slump Roberts said. "We're not
playing terribly, but we're just not getting all the breaks
we could be
The women's team plays William & Mary on
Wednesday. It will be the CAA opener for the Pirates and
a game phat is traditionally won by ECU.
"We will have our work cut out for us against William
and Mary on Wednesday, but our team is certainly look-
ing forward to the challenge Roberts said. "We've
always played very well against William & Mary
After the William & Mary game, the women's team
will play Appalachian State on Sunday.
"The home rrwtch on Sunday versus Appalachian will
be nice since it will be (Women's Soccer) Parents Day.
Everyone will be glad to get back in front of the home
crowd Roberts said.
The women's team has more than enough talent to
cause other teams to worry. Since the season began,
many players have proven themselves to be aggressive
members ot the team. Forward Jennifer Riley leads the
team in scoring with three goals. Center midfielder
Courtney Jurcich has helped the team with assists. The
team's goalkeeper, Amy Horton, has immensely helped
the defense.
The men's team started the season off on the 31st
with a 2-1 virrory over Elon. Their next games were
Sept. 4 and Sept. 6 against the Citadel and Charleston
Southern. They were beaten 3-1 by the Citadel and 4-0
by Charleston Southern.
Next, the Rrates will play Virginia Tech on Thursday.
After that game, they will return to ECU Sunday to play
the Appalachian men's team. They are both games the
Pirates are looking forward to.
"We need to really have a good week of practice to
prepare for Virginia Tech and Appalachian said men's
Head Coach Will Wiberg. "We are going to get down to
the basics. We will take it one game at a time and focus
all of our attention at the beginning of the week on
Virginia Tech. Tech will be iooking to even things up
after last year, and we can't afford to have any mental
mistakes
The leading scorer on the men's team is Scott
Pokomey. The freshman forward has scored two goals so
far, including a last minute, game winning shot against
Elon. Also making contributions arc midfielder Brian
Denoo and sweeper Brett Waxer, who has started and
played every minuie of every game.
Both teams play their next home game Sunday, the
Sept. 14th against Appalachian. The men's team will play
at noon and the women's team will play at 2 p.m.

Pirate

Dear ECU Students:
This Saturday is your Pirates First home game of 1997. We will host Wake Forest from the ACC
(the only ACC team to play in Greenville since 1963), temporary bleachers have been added in both
endzones, and the game will be televised to over 8 million homes on Fox Sports South. All that's left
is the stands full with great ECU students to make Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium the loudest stadium in C-
USA.
Due to the stadium construction, the number of gates for fans to enter the stadium has been reduced
for 1997. This means it will take longer for you to get into the stadium and to your seats. To make
sure you are in your seats in time for a smoke filled team entrance, you are encouraged to arrive at
the stadium gates at 300 pm. The gates that students should use for 1997 are Gates I and 6 located
at the scoreboard end of the stadium. Your patience and cooperation during this time of construction
will assist you to have a good time and will be appreciated by those who will be working the gates at
the game.
You filling the stands at every home game is extremely important to your football team. With you
filling the student section on your feet making as much noise beginning with the team entrance to
the final horn is a big home field advantage for the Pirates.
There are a few times during the games where you can make a big impact When your Pirates are on
defense and it's 3rd down or if an opposing team gets to our twenty yard line or closer to the
endzone, let your defense know you are behind them by standing and making so much noise you can
be heard in Charlotte. Also, special teams will be a key factor to the success of the Pirates this fall,
every time the Pirates kkkoff or receive a kickoff, stand and get loud to support the special teams.
We will be seen on television on more than one occasion this fall and have visiting fans at every
game. In the parking lots and in the stands I encourage you to represent yourselves, your football
team, and ECU in a first class manner and with enthusiasm.
We are looking forward to playing at home in front of the greatest fans in college football. See you
in (he stadium early. Go Pirates!

Marching band, mascot
brings magic to games
J E H S I N A STUDZ
TA8101Q WRITER
It takes more than a mean football team and screaming fans to
make the magic which occurs regularly in Dowdy-Ficklen
Stadium. It takes a marching band, cheerleaders and mascots
to generate the spirit which leads the Pirates to victory.
As all Pirate fans know, at the beginning of every home foot-
ball game, football players come charging through two lines of
Marching Pirates to appear intimidating to the opposing team.
Immediately after the line-up, the band performs their pre-
game show. This year's pre-game show will include music from
the Star Wars trilogy.
"The pre-game show is a four minute segment that is
designed to get everyone in stadium involved in making alot of
noise, and to create intimidation for the opposing team said
Chris Knighten, director of the Marching Pirates.
The Marching Pirates worked during the summer on two
half-time shows for this season's fans . The first one includes a
wide range of music. The second one includes music from the
Star if'ars trilogy.
Throughout the musical performance, the band maneuvers
in and out of 20-30 formations during every show. Knighten
said ihe Marching Pirates goal was the same this year as in the
past: to play music which entertains and creates an atmosphere
of spirit for the crowd.
During football games, the Marching Pirates work closely
with the ECU cheerleaders to keep the level of spirit in the
stands high.
With cheers like "Hey, Hey, Hey EC you look so good to
me cheerleaders engage the crowds.
The cheerleading squad has added a new "mike" man for
tlie season. The new squad member is responsible for yelling
into the mike to let crowds know, line by line, what the cheer-
leaders are saying. The squad hopes the addition of the "mike
man" will help with crowd involvement in chants and cheers.
Cheerleading Coach Paula Corbel! feels this new addition
will help the crowd get more involved with the cheerleaders
and, in return, lend support to the football team.
Corhett said cheerleading has evolved over the years and
that being a cheerleader is a tough job. Not only does the squad
have to keep everyone in the stands enthusiastic, they also have
to prepare for various cheerleading compelions. This year the
squad is traveling to Florida to compete in the National
Cheerleading Association competition.
While the Marching Pirates and the ECU cheerleading
squad work hard a! generating spirit, no football game would be
complete without an appearance by PeeDee the Pirate. In the
midst of large purple-shirted players, sideline staff, over 20
cheerleaders and countless photographers, PeeDee the Pirate
manages to entertain crowds and support his team too.
A mascot may be the heart and soui of team spirit, but
being a mascot is less glamorous. CorbetL, who is also in charge
of coordinating the mascots, said the costume mascots wear can
be overwhelmingly hoi, especially during the first hot weather
games of the season.
To meet the challenging iob, there are four ECU students
playing the role of PeeDee this season. Two people are needed
for eaeh game to divide the job of playing PeeDee.
While not busy al games or in school all of the FVeDees
travel across Greenville, making appearances al birthday par-
ties, health benefits and events such as Rotary Club meetings.
PeeDee also works with various organizations raising money for
different charities.
Chant along with the Marching Pirates on game day Cheer for East Car'lina, Cheer for ol E.C We know we're the finest, Onward to victory! Go Pirates Cheer for East Car'lina, Cheer on for old E.C Loyal and bold, we're the purple and gold, We are the pirates of E.C.UVGfi 1 4 "Ml1

This season, the Pirates are vviwvdering whether the
offensive liiie will survive with only one reluming
starter, whether quarterback Dan Gonzalez can pick up
where he left off last season and whether Scott Hariey
will better his stellar 1996 performance.
Head Coach Steve Logan knows this year could be
a struggle. With only nine reluming starters, he is con-
cerned.
This year. Logan feels his defense will really have to
step up and rise to the occasion.
Very pointedly, we're going to have to count on our
defense to win early Logan said at a recent media
conference. "Things are going to start out a little slow
is what my gut feeling is, and we're going to have to do
some defensive work and special teams work
It was that defense which ranked 37th in the nation
in total defense and led the nation in takeaways last
season. In 1992, ECU's defense was ranked 105th in
the nation, so in just four years the defense moved up
68 places in their rankings.
Due to graduation, three of the linebackers who
accounted for 321 tackles on the defensive end are
gone. But Junior Rod Coleman, who accounted for 52
tackles last season, says this year's defense is roaring
logo.
"We're up lo the chaUengeCnleman said. "We're
not scared�we're jus ready, ready to get the season
started
The offensive line has been a concern with only one
returning starter, and that is junior center Danny
Moore.
Moore says since everyone seems to doubt the job
the offensive line can do, it isn't hard for them to get
pumped up.
"It's not hard to get motivated when everybody tells
� III
delivers confident answers
you that you can't do it, you can't get the job done; it
makes you wanl lo go out ihere and prove yourself and
makes vnu chomp at the bit to gel out there and show
everybody lhal you can get it done Moore said. "It
makes you want lo work that much harder
The offensive players have confidence in their line,
and say they have the talent. Last Saturday's West
Virginia game was their first chance lo play together.
"I think they are a good group of players senior
quarterback Dan Gonzalez said, "They are really tal-
ented, but, of course, it's going to be the first time they
are playing together. I'm not expecting them to do
everything perfect
Gonzalez added lhal if they try their hardest, he
can't ask for anything more.
"Eventually, I want them to build some consistency
down the road, and it might not be there for the first
me but as long as they are trying their hardest,
there's nothing more I can ask of them Gonazlez said.
With the start of this season, Gonzalez, who filled in
nicely for an injured Marcus Crandell last season for
the remaining four games, says the rest of the offense
has worked hard for the anticipation of this season.
"We've put it in a lot of hard work this off-season
Gonzalez said. "I've done a lot of things personally to
make sure I'm as ready as I possibly can be, and I think
the offense in general has done that"
Logan is confident Gonzalez, who threw for 1322
yards last year on 90 completions, will steadily improve
throughout the season.
"I talked to Danny, and what I'd like to see him do
is get better each game throughout the 11 -game sched-
ule we have ahead of us, and if he does that then he'll
be the kind of quarterback who can win for us Logan
said.
One player who has proven he can help win is Scott
Hariey, who rushed 1,745 yards and is the nation's
leading returning rusher That figure set the single sea-

son record by nearly 400 yards established here at
ECU. N.C State experienced Hariey first-hand last
season as they watched him roll to 351 yards, which is
the ninth-best single game effort in NCAA history and
best ever by a sophomore. He averaged 158.6 per
game.
When asked what he will have to do to have the
kind of season he had last year, Hariey simply put it in
two wonis: same thing
Hariey said while he'd like to rack up just as many
yards, us long as he can help the team to victory, the
yards come second.
"I'm just going to go out there and play as hard as I
can Hariey said. 'Td rather have wins that a hun-
dred-some yards a game. What's the use of running for
those yards and not even winning, so I'd rather win
first, then the yards can come
Logan notes that it's not just Hariey's ability to run
the ball that makes him so good, but the way he pro-
tects the ball
"The main thing he did last year that no one really
talks about is the way he took care of the football
Logan said. "I think he had two turnovers all year
long
For Logan, he is interested in seeing how Hariey
will handle the title of nation's leading returning rush-
er;
"We're going lo see, now, how Scott handles this
leading rusher in the nation, and all this stuff Logan
said. "He's put in a lot of hard work last year. He's put
in a lot of hard work this summer, so we'll see
This year marks the inaugural season for
Conference USA, and the players know tkey now have

"It's very exciting Jason Nichols, senior flanker,
said. "Now we have something real lo shoot for We
have a conference championship we can go out Cot, and
if we play right and win the right games, we can win.
So, it's not so much of the pressure of the years before
as having to go out and win every game lo get into a
bowl game. I'm not saying we're not trying to win more
games but now that we have the right games, that we
have to win, if we take care of that we can still get in

Defense
Rod Coleman�The Pirates leading returning tackier wilh 52
slops in , the junior linebacker also led the team in eight sacks. This proven pass
rusher is a preseason AU-Conierence USA candidate. With Coleman's size and speed,
opposing quarterbacks better learn to dump the ball early and not take a sack for a loss.
TraviS Dardeil�A preseason .All-Coiiference USA candidate,
this junior nose guard has started all 23 games at ECU since enrolling. Da.den finished
last year with 37 tackles and is a main threat on the defensive front Carden knuws the
position well and will bring leadership to the defensive line. He had five tackles for
loss and 3.5 sacks in 19. Last season he led the team wilh QB pressures wilh 11.
KeWin SllggS�This junior started every game at left comerback
last season and registeredtackles. This season the Pirates will look to use Suggs at
free safely. Suggs brings speed and quick hands wilh two pass breakups last year a
recovery fumble, and two irteceptions for the season.
Offense
ScOtt H a rley�He rdums as (he ration's leading rrtuming rush-
er after gaining 1,745 vards last season. Hartey broke several school records includ-
ing rushing for 351 yards against N.C. State. That effort represents the niruh best sin-
gle game performance in NCAA history and best ever by a sophomore. The junior
fullback has been tabbed the preseason Conference USA Offensive Player of the year
and is an All-American candidate this season. Harley will be vital lo the success of
Ihe Pirates and if he can better or equal the last year's performance, the Pirates
should be hard lo beat.
DannV M00re�Look lor this jiiniwcerter to be a vocal leader
among the offensive line. Moore is the only returning starter on the u0" line, and
already has teammates looking up to him for direction this season. He � also a pre-
season All-Conference USA choice.

season with preseason knee injury, the Omference USA coaches name him to the pre-
season All-Conference USA team. Also a track team member, Henry has speed and is
capable of playing anv position in secondary. In 1995, Henry recorded 58 tackles and
10 tackles against Tennessee and Cincinnati. Henry's full recovery will allow him lo
chase down opponents.

should continue his success through the year.
Larry Shannon�True, rie'llniiss the first couple of games with

upcoming talent and will also allow for a deep bench.
Although the team has many freshmen, Walker still
cannot assess who the strongest ones are�only time

This is a solid group of athletes who have good
attitudes Walker said.
They are all really solid athletes
Only being at East Carolina for three years.

leam from previous games and, of course, from prac-
tice Walker said.
This young team will lake the time to get to know
each other In order to be successful, they have to be

TABLOID WRITER
The aw HHIUlll men"s team this year is quite unusual from
other sporting teams, because ihey did not choose captains
this year.
You would think that this would hinder the team but. the
decision of not is not hindering them in the least. In fact, the
team has a solid rock foundation based on Jamie Mance,
Jeremv Coleman. Michael Marini, Justin England and Brian
Beil.
Mance gave his team a strong showing last vear by mak-
ing all slate and all conference,
"Jamie gets every ounce he has out of his talent said
Coach John Welbom. "He is one of the team's most motivated
and dedicated members
Bv the team being so spread out in strength, it actually
enhances the team by making them rely on the whole team to
do well.
The men's cross country team ha- one goal thi- rar: "V
are going to lake our best shot at taking the Colonial Athletic
Association conference championship said assistant coach
Mike Km).
"We are really going to have to hustle lo have the success
that we saw last season, bul 1 am confident that the guys will
pull through Welborn said. "We have lots of talent coming
back from last year plus we have some addilons lo our rosier
help the team out
These new addtions are Steve Arnold and Stuart Will.
"We are really aiming lo close thai gap between ftilliam
and Mary. James Madison and ourselves Uelborn said.
"George Mason and I NC-Wilmington have also challenged us
in the past, so our conference is packed with lough teams lo
