evidence fails to show that the claimant
(Demarco) was discharged from the job for
substantial fault or misconduct connected
with the work Monroe said.
This decision allows Demarco to receive
unemployment checks totaling over
$8,000, an amount which Chancellor
Kakin blocked Demarco from receiving.
Demarco believes his victory will help
many who are in situations similar to his.
"This is a very important decision
because the court recognizes that faculty
have employment rights just like other
employees in the state Demarco said. "It
demonstrates Kakin is not above the law.
The constitutional rights as well as federal
and state laws will be upheld for tenure fac-
ulty
I iniversity attorney
Ben Irons says that the
university plans to
appeal the decision.
Irons believes that
Demarco won the case
due to a technicality.
"The university has
witnesses to all of
Demarco's actions.
Regarding his final
incident however, no
one testified to the
incident on behalf of the university, which
is why the employment judge rued in
Demarco's favor Irons said.
Problems between Demarco and the
university began inl994 when Demarco
disrupted a meeting of the Graduate
Faculty Admission Committee by shouting
obscenities. Demarco was given a verbal
warning. Later, he received a written rep-
rimand notifying him that his actions were
unprofessional.
"Initially I received an oral warning. But
then two months later I received the writ-
ten reprimand Demarco said. "I believe
this is double jeopardy. I am being disci-
plined for a previously resolved incident
Later in December 1996, confrontarions
continued as Demarco made negative
remarks toward a colleague. Professor

Delta Sigma Phi house

The Delta Sigma Phi house,
located on Hast Tenth
Street, was vandalized and
robbed on Thanksgiving
Day.
The president of Delta
Sigma Phi, Paul Kaplan, left
the house on Thursday,
morning and returned on
Friday morning. He
returned on Friday to find
broken windows and doors
which had been forcefully
opened. Apparently, the robbers entered
the fraternity house through the upstairs
deck in the back of the house.
After entering the house, Kaplan found
that the entire house was sprayed with fire
extinguishers and eggs thrown on the
inside and outside of the house. The police
fingerprinted the house; however, that
proved very difficult because of the fire
extinguisher residue all over the house.
"All the doors were kicked in and
someone took the two fire extinguishers
and sprayed all the soot all over the place
said Scott Rose, house manager of Delta
Sigma Phi.

the specific rooms of the fraternity house
and not the house as a whole. Among the
items stolen from the rooms were a stereo,
rwo guitars, two computers, clothing, and a
credit card wallet.
"The police suggest that it was the work
of another fraternity said Mustafa Rashid,
Delta Sigma Phi secretary.
Rose feels differently.
"I do not think it was the work of anoth-
er fraternity because they would have
stolen fraternity stuff, not personal items
he said.
"We are installing an alarm system to pre-
vent future break-ins and vandalism to our

Fastern North Carolina has been hit hardest by
the disease. Pitt county ranks fifth out of the 1(H)
reported counties in the state that have the highest
annual rate of AIDS. It is estimated that by the
year 2000, between 38 and 108 million people will
be infected with IIIY.
Worldwide, two women ate infected with HIV

over 75 percent of cases. Of these cases over 80
percent were found in African Americans.
Barry Flmore, outreach coordinator for PICA-
SO, said it appears that eastern North Carolina res-
idents have many misconceptions about AIDS.
"I believe in eastern North Carolina people still
believe it's an urban phenomenon. They feel since
they don't live in a big city they don't have to

The ECU School of Medicine's telemedi-

completed 3,000 consultations in 34 differ-
ent specialities of medicine through its
REACH-TV network at 12 clinical sites.
The technical team at ECU integrated
advanced telecommunication technologies
into a uniform network which has become
the most flexible telemedicine network in
the country. Any site on any network can
be connected to the four distance learning

I believe the Pirates, including
players and coaches, performed
admirably this season. While a
bowf appearance doesn't seem
likely, I thought the season was
encouraging for this year and for
the future. Two games come to
mind as having particularly unhap-
py outcomes. One is the Alabama
game, in which we played well and
could have won. The other is the
Houston game in which Murphy's
law seemingly applied on every
occasion.
So if you were Coach Eakin,
how would you have changed the
outcome?
ECU is very fortunate that nei-
ther 1 nor many other fans are
coaches.

After the meeting, Demarco
allegedly shoved Shine into a wall
when Shine accidentally brushed
against him.
These events, along with others,
were among the charges which
ECU and Chancellor Eakin used as
cause for the decision to dismiss
Demarco. Demarco continues to
fight the charges brought against
him after he was discharged in April
1998. Demarco recently filed a suit
against ECU for disability discrimi-

ECU still plans to stand behind

Trustees Irons said He commit-
ted setious acts of misconduct,
which led to his discharge
However, Demarco is still fight-
ing to get his job back and plans on
staying in the area. His attorney, Al
McSurely, believes that Demarco
could start his own private practice.
"His reputation in this field is so
good. It is ironic that the university
calls him a nut case. He is a pretty
famous children's' clinician who
helps diagnose children with
Attention Deficit Disorder and
many other brain disorders. "
McSurely has utmost confi-
dence that justice will be given to

Satcher, U.S. surgeon general.
Satcher, who recently spoke at a

that 40,000 to 80,000 people in the
U.S. become infected each year.
World AIDS Day (WAD) origi-
nated in the United Kingdom by
the WAD Project at the Health
Education Authority and the
National AIDS Trust. WAD is
funded by the Department of
Health, a supporter of World AIDS
Day across the world.
The purpose of World AIDS
bay is to raise funds for HIVAIDS
projects and to support national
and international efforts to combat
the disease. It raises awareness
about HIVAIDS with the general
public and is used to carry mes-
sages of prevention into communi-
ties across the nation and to
improve care for those who are
infected with HIV.
World AIDS Day was set up to
help people remember the more
than 400,000 Americans who have
died as a result of AIDS and the 1
million Americans and 30 million
people around the world who are
currently infected with the disease.
ECU has been working in con-
junction with PICASO and the
Health Department in ways to
help spread the word that these
statistics can be ptevented. The
University Health Center has pro-
moted poster competitions dealing
with AIDS along with administer-
ing free HIV screening tests.
Ribbons and safe sex kits have
been offered around campus.
"Some students have been
embarrassed by the distribution of
condoms and others have not taken
them saying that they have chosen
abstinence said Beth Credle,
graduate assistant. "At least stu-
dents are being honest about their
relationships
Credle is among the many who
have worked to advertise the sig-
nificance of the week's festivities.
Other events include participat-
ing in helping ECU create a panel
for the AIDS Quilt, a symbol of the
world's recognition of the disease.
Credle feels that young people
in general still have much to learn
about the disease.
"Many college students partici-
pate in sexual behaviors which put
them at high risk for HIV transmis-
sion. It is important for students
who feel invincible or immune to
getting HIV to realize that the
virus does not discriminate said
Credle. "HIV could happen to any-
one who does not take precautions
to protect themselves from running

SGA discusses increase in tuition

STAFF WHITER
The Student Government
Association (SGA) met Monday to
discuss the proposed increase to
student tuition that would con-
tribute to the improvement of the
Student Union, Student Health
Center, Mendenhall, technology
and Transit.
Student Union President
Christine Edwards asked for an
extra $5.50 per student to provide
ECU with more entertainment, but
only received a $4.50 increase.
Edwards said the Student Union
wants to provide better and more
diverse entertainment for students,
but entertainment cost is continu-
ously increasing.
Jim Stern discussed the need for
more leadership programs and lec-
tures.
The money will be divided so
that Student Union receives $1.50,
Leadership Development will
receive $2, and Minority Student
Affairs will receive $1.
Director of the Student Health
Center, Kay Wilkerson, asked for
an $8 increase for personnel, operat-
ing needs and for a sports medicine
clinic for non-varsity athletes. The
health program was only awarded
$7 so it will be unable to begin the
new sports medicine clinic.
"I am disappointed that the new
program will be cut Wilkerson
said.
Director of University Unions,
Bill Clutter, asked for and received
$7 for Mendenhall, which is the
same amount of money that was
given to the facility last year.
The money will be used to
update the bowling center with
automatic scoring, to improve the
lounge and to provide social events

It seems as if everywhere we go, we're accosted by AIDS awareness propaganda. "Wear a
condom "Practice safe sex "Abstinence is the answer and "Know your partner" are the
catch-phrases of our college experience.
But how often do we stop to consider just how risky our behavior continues to be? Yes, we
all know that AIDS is deadly and incurable. But how many of us actually take the time to keep
ourselves from getting infected?
It's easy to pretend that AIDS is a disease that only promiscuous people get, or that "just
this once" we can engage in risky behavior and not contract the disease.
But AIDS is present now, on our campus.
Ladies, that guy you were scoping at the Elbow? He may have AIDS, and he may not even
know it. He can look harmless enough, and he may be a nice guy, .but inside his body the AIDS
virus is slowly taking over.
Guys, your new girlfriend may not be all she seems. Don't be embarrassed to ask her abot t
her sexual history. If she refuses to discuss it, she may have her own doubts about infection.
But it's not enough to discuss sexual history with your partner. If you have any doubt about
your partner's honesty, get the facts, and get them in writing.
Abstinence is becoming extremely popular way to avoid STDs altogether. Not surprisingly,
it's 100 percent effective. Don't feel like you have to engage in sex to have a real relationship.
If you use drugs intravenously, please remember that sterile needles are very important.
AIDS microbes can live in the smallest amounts of blood. Just because you don't shoot up
heroin does not mean that you can use someone else's needle, even for insulin, without great
risk.
Keep your eyes open. Protect your safety at all costs. Be aggressive when defending your
right to know about your partner's sexual history. Stand by your decision to be abstinent, if
you've made one. Only you can be responsible for your own well-being.
It may be embarrassing to talk about sex or to end an encounter because you're in doubt of
your partner, but it beats being dead.

Relationships make college hard
Relationships are just one of
the few truly perplexing and
continual avenues of life.
Dating, relationships and all of the
mysteries that the opposite sex
perpetuates are a prominent facet
of the average college student's
life. This facet is usually
extremely time consuming and
takes an unusual precedent over
the other more important and long
term aspects of life such as tests,
classes, jobs, bills, families, etc. For
some reason, guys, girls and their
respective dating patterns can
create more undue stress and
trauma than any 10-page paper
assignment could ever aspire to
cause. Relationships are just one
of the few truly perplexing and
continual avenues of life.
The college dating scene
produces four basic categories of
relationships. These categories are
not mutually exclusive, which
further adds to the complexity and
perhaps deluded enjoyment of the
whole grand scheme.
The first category belongs to
the "psycho" relationship. This
type is plagued by a series of
confusing and self-perpetuating
events. It most often occurs when
one or both parties involved are
two nickels short of a dime. They
maliciously fight and scheme to
"get the other one back All the
while, friends and family watch in
utter amazement at the ridiculous
episodes that transpire on a
weekly, sometimes daily, basis.
The scary thing about this type of
relationship is that, in the
beginning, everything and
everyone is normal. Then, one
day, someone realizes that they
aren't dating the girl-or-guy-next-
door, but rather a jealous,
temperamental and unreasonable
head case. Sadly enough, once this
is realized and encapsulated in one
or more unexplainably psychotic
events, the point of no return has
been reached and they're both
hopelessly "in love" and
imprisoned in a twisted, manic-
depressive and never-ending
situation.
The second category is a very
common one. This is the
unbalanced relationship and is
characterized by one person giving
entirely more (on many levels)
than the other one. This can
happen for a variety of reasons and
is never any one person's fault
because you can't be a co-
dependent by yourself.
Essentially, the giver is either blind
or in total denial that the other
person is obviously not the perfect
and unassuming creature that is
reciprocating all of his or her
feelings and actions. At best, it's
just a misunderstanding of
intentions. At worst, it is a
situation where one is being taken
advantage of entirely. But again,
no one can blame the taker in the
relationship because he or she
can't unapologetically take what
isn't being readily doled out to
them.
The third category is the
"dreaded ex syndrome This is
where one simple universal has to
be established: no partner of six
months or less can ever hope to
compete with a previous partner of
two or more years. This former
"love of his or her life" will always
be put on a pedestal even if the
relationship was as volatile as a bull
in a china cabinet. How can you
compete with that? It's virtually
impossible and the other person
will probably come back to haunt
the relationship time and time
again reeking utter havoc. It's just
one of those things.
The fourth type is the good and
healthy relationship. This occurs
when two well-adjusted people
meet, connect and love every
minute of it. The new found loved
one can make bad days good; the
world just doesn't seem so bad
after all. Although it doesn't
happen very frequently, when it
does it is a very fulfilling
experience indeed. Everything is
normal, methodical, happybut
what fun is that?
Since it is so difficult to put
things in proper perspective and
hence take relationships and what
they entail in stride, it is
imperative to only be involved in
what makes you completely happy.
If one has to constantly strive and
worry to maintain something that
is essentially dysfunctional, then
maybe that should be some sort of
hint. In college, individuals change
at rapid rates. The person you
know one month may hot be the
same person the next. That is why
evaluations are a necessity. No one
should have to settle. If you do,
inevitably you'll end up unhappy
and resentful of the person who
held you back. Nice thought, huh?
College should be an enjoyable
time of exploration on many levels.
Relationships , can either
perpetuate or impede this process.
Wasting time on someone who is
just a distraction hurts both parties
in the end. It boils down to making
a commanding decision about your
life and its direction. So, live life
and do what it takes to make
yourself content and fulfilled
because at the end of the dav-esaW
is what counts the most.

People are slobs in public places
The bottom line here is that if
you're gonna be gross, do it
in your own house.
Have you ever been to the movies
for a nine o'clock show, right after
everyone has left from the seven
o'clock show, and waded through
the crunchy abyss of spilled
popcorn, dropped drink cups and
scattered Goobers? Have you
taken your seat only to realize,
twenty minutes later when you
need to go potty, that you've put
your hiney in a wad of grape
Bubbalicious? Have you cursed
the very mothers of these fiends
who don't have enough respect for
humanity to clean up after
themselves?
I have.
Do you ride down a scenic
North Carolina back road, admire
the foliage as it changes colors, and
find yourself trying desperately to
overlook the MacDonald's bags,
Mello Yello bottles and dirty
diapers lining the roads? Do you
wonder what portion of the brain is
missing in the people who have
the audacity to assume that it is
their right to spread their filth
wherever they go?
So why do people do this crap?
They go into restaurants (usually
around closing time) and pour
ketchup on the tables. They slosh
food onto the floor. They do
hideous things in the bathrooms.
And then they leave, feeling as if
they have "conquered" the place.
I hate them.
It is not difficult to be a clean
human being in public places. If
your house is disgusting, nobody
really cares. You are the only one
living in your nastincss. But when
you spread it around, we all have to
live in it. So stop it.
It's so easy to flush a toilet, even
in a bar or club- I know this is a
totally new concept for some of
you, but these places do have
working toilets. You don't need a
degree in engineering to figure out
the the handle goes down and
poof! All gone. It's really easy to
put your trash in the trash can. It
goes right through the little slot at
the top.
You can really see the evil dirty
people coming. They have a
certain look in their eyes. It says
"Yes, I'm evil and dirty. And I'm
gonna leave all of my evil dirt here
for you to sit in. Ha ha ha ha
maniacal laughter
I think that I'm going to start
my own personal crusade against
these monsters. Whenever I see
them leaving piles of filth in movie
theaters, in restaurants, on the side
of the road, in a bar, or anywhere, I
will follow them home and urinate
on their carpet. That would make
us just about even, don't you
think? I mean, if they feel they
have the right to invade my space
and make it nasty, then don't I
have the right to do the same?
The bottom line here is that if
you're gonna be gross, do it in your
own house. Otherwise I'll be
forced to release the fury of my
bladder upon your rug, and nobody
wants that. Trust me.

Marching Pirates lead crowd spirit
Create atmosphere
forgames
Phillip Gilfus
STAFF WRITER
At every Pirate football game, amidst all
the touchdowns and crowd cheering,
are the steadfast ECU Marching Pirates.
Although sometimes overlooked, the
ECU Marching Pirates who perform at
all football games are an important part
of the university and contribute much to
school pride.
While most fans just go to the home
! football games, the almost two hundred
I person band has to travel around with
the team to support them at their away
games. At every game held at Dowdy-
Ficklen Stadium, the band performs a
pregame show. "The Star-Spangled
Banner" is typically part of the pregame
show.
"Pregame performances is when we
try to play something that fires up the
crowd said Katie Blizzard, who plays
the piccolo for the band.
During the half-time show, the
Marching Pirates take to the field. This
time they play a piece that will show off
the band's full talent. Some performances
from the past season have included selec-
tions from Earth, Wind, and Fire, and a
rendition of "The Time Warp" from The
Rocky Horror Picture Show for
Halloween. These selections are usually
chosen by the Christopher Knighten, the
band director, though suggestions are
taken from fans.
The band then plays a number until
the crowd is fully excited.
The practice schedule for the band is
rigorous. They practice every Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday under the direc-
tion of their sixth year band director. Most
practices last from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
At these practices, the Marching Pirates
go over all aspects of their performances,
from playing their instruments to walking
in formation.
"We usually start off with 'fundamen-
tals one percussion member said. "This
is when we practice the basics, including
breaking into sections and our block for-
mations
Percussion warms up on the field.
FILE PHOTO
After fifteen minutes of stretching and
drill practice, the actual playing takes
place. First the band breaks off into sec-
tions, which include winds, brass and per-
cussion. The section leaders then take
over.
The squad and section leaders are stu-
dents who excel in their particular instru-
mental section.They have the responsibil-
ities of being in charge of spot placement
and knowing where everyone should be
marching. The only difference between
the two is that the squad leaders have
more people under their direction.
"There has been really good
student leadership this "year said
Christopher Knighten, the band
director.
This semester the Marching
Pirates had the chance to go to
Charlotte where they played in a
nationally televised Carolina
Panthers game.
"We play many exhibition
shows at high school each year
Knighten said. "This is a chance
for the band to provide outreach
and recruitment for the universi-
ty"
Students who want to join the
band must arrive at school early in
the year. During the summer,
members come to campus early to
practice.
"It is a chance to meet people
and to work early Blizzard said.
Students who spend their time
in band only receive one semester
hour of credit. Students who miss
three practices or a performance
have the potential to be asked to
leave the band.
Anyone who is interested in
marching in the band, but does
not want to play an instrument
should contact a band member.
When a member is not able to
play, someone is still needed to
march in formations. The band
member will show you how to
march, where you are supposed to
walk, and how to pretend to play
their instrument.
Local bands perform for Pirate fans.

STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) ?
Edward Aragi caused quite a stir
when he deposited a buck at his
local bank.

and killed the buck the day
before, removedthe deer when

The bank, in turn, promised to
look into his complaint and notify
him bymail of their findings.
Arthur Murphy, branch manag-
er and assistant vice president of
the bank, said the incident caused
a distraction, but did not disrupt

Woman Sentenced for
Penis Burning
HANOI, Vietnam (AP) ? A
woman has been sentenced to two
years in jail for burning her hus-
band's penis because she suspect-
ed him of having a mistress, a local
court official said Monday.
Nguyen Thi Thu Lan, 40, was
convicted during a one-day trial
Nov. 12.
The incident took place in April
in the central coastal province of
Binh
Thuan. Lan, using cotton
soaked with gasoline, burned her
husband after he came home
drunk, the official said.
Her husband suffered 56 per-
cent burns on his privates and has
paid some 20 million dong (dlrs
1,500) for medical treatment, a
huge amount in a country where
the annual per capita income is
only about dlrs 340.

Funeral homes drawing DNA samples
VERMILION, Ohio (AP) ?
There has been cremation jewelry
and designer caskets with themes
that included even golf ? a
"Fairway to Heaven" motif.
Now funeral homes are begin-
ning to collect DNA samples from
the dead ? for a fee ? to preserve
a genetic record that could provide
medical information.
While experts are divided on
the usefulness of the data, some
think theservice will be a strong
seller for the 21,000 funeral homes
in the UnitedStates.
"I imagine every funeral home
will have this service in the
future saidTerry Travis, funeral
director of Riddle Funeral Home
in Vermilion, about 30 miles (50
kilometers) west of Cleveland.
Travis signed up earlier this
month for the service offered by
Cincinnati-based DNA Analysis
Inc. For dlrs 350, he will snip a bit
of hair, draw some blood and run a
swab inside a deceased person's
mouth to get a DNA sample.
The samples are packaged in
sterile kits and sent to a lab where
molecular biologist Paul Harding
extracts the DNA He then sends
the family a confidential genetic
fingerprint of the deceased.
The company stores the DNA
samples for 25 years at minds 80
degrees Fahrenheit, in case there is
a need for analysis. Only next-of-
kin can have the samples tested,
for an extra fee. GeneLink Inc. has
been offering a similar service since
19 through hundreds of funeral
homes and cemeteries in 20 states,
said John DePhillipo, president of
the company based in Margate,
New Jersey.
"If you trust your loved one to a
funeral home and have been work-
ing with them for generations, then
this might be the right profession
to be offering this type of service
said Stephen Gehlcrt, executive
director of the Ohio Funeral
Directors Association. "The jury is
going to be the consumer
With cremation jewelry, the
question was whether to store
remains of a loved one in a locket
or pendant. DNA storage is a much
more profound issue, full of ethical
questions.
At the urging of her seven chil-
dren, Kathleen Hanrahan, 79, of
suburban Cincinnati had DNA
samples taken of her husband,
Bert, when he died in October.
Bcrnie Naegele, who owns a funer-
al home in Cincinnati and is co-
founder of DNA Analysis, per-
formed the procedure.
"We talked about it in the fami-
ly and it sounded like the wave of
the future Mrs. Hanrahan said.
"My children thought it would be
very useful for their children or
grandchildren

Winning streak ends with loss to Appalachian
Mountaineers win
Mondays nail biter, 68-67
Mario Scherhauff.r
SPORTS EDITOR
Each mountain usually follows a valley, and
the Pirates took one step downhill after
dropping a nail biter Monday night to end
their short winning streak.
ECU recorded two victories during the
Thanksgiving holidays to bring their record
to 3-1 before they came up short in a 68-67
loss to Appalachian State on Monday.
The Pirates' first victory during the hol-
idays came on Nov. 24, when forward
Evaidas Joeys had 17 points and 11
rebounds to lead the Pirates to a 75-69 win
over the Ragin' Cajuns of Southwestern
Louisiana. His performance entitled Joeys
CAA Player-of-thelkVeek after he proved to
be the team's leading scorer and rebounder.
ECU shot 58 percent and dominated on
defense in the second half to overcome a
nine point haiftime deficit.
The Pirates didn't have too much time
for their Thanksgiving turkey when they
had to travel to Lvnchburg, Va. to defeat
Liberty on Nov. 28. Quincy Hall had 18
points, five of them in a crucial run in the
second half, as ECU scored 52 second half
points Saturday night to seal the victory
over Liberty 80-56, respectively. Hall was
8-of-10 from the field and also grabbed 10
rebounds to lead the Pirates, who shot 55

percent in the second half. Evaidas Joeys
also had 18 points for the Pirates, including
12 points in 3-pointers.
The Pirates saw their three-game win-
ning streak come to an end Monday night
in the buzzer beater to Appalachian State.
"We did a lot of good things even though
we got a loss junior guard Garrett
Blackwelder said. "We played hard against
a good team and now we need to focus on
our conference opener Saturday against
American
Blackwelder led the Pirates with 13
points in the close loss.
"This was a tough loss, but one game
won't make or break our season head
coach Joe Dooley said. "We need to learn
from this game and be prepared for our first
conference game against American this
weekend
The Pirates are hoping to avenge last
seasons' 76-63 loss to American by trying to
contain senior guard Matt Brown and senior
forward Dave Small.
"If wc can control Brown and Small and
penetrate their defense we should be just
fine Dooley said.
Additionally, the Pirates had to forfeit
their 7 foot tall center Alphons van lerland
for their last two games due to an injury.
According to ECU'S Sports Information
Department, van lerland is suffering from a
stress fracture on his left foot which was
bothering him before but really got worse

4-0 winning streak
Eric Couch
senior w?ITER
The ECU Women's basketball
team picked up three straight wins
against UNC Charlotte, Fairfield
and Wake Forest over the holiday
break to start out the season with a
record of 4-0.
The streak started on Nov. 24
when head coach Dee Gibson led
the Pirates to her alma mater and
defeated UNCC by a score of 85-
81. Jen Mortez scored a team-high
24 points and connected for five
three-pointers. Additionally, junior
point guard Waynetta V'eney
chipped in her own 22 points.
Next on the list for the Pirates
was to play Fairfield in the Warner
Classic Tournament in Fairfield,
Conn. The Fairfield Stags had not
lost in the first round of their own
tournament in 12 years so the
Pirates knew they would have
their hands full. In front of a record

handled the task well and downed
the host of the tournament 82-76.
"Fairfield would definitely be a
task at home Veney said.
Veney led ECU in offense with
19 points and added nine assists.
Also, freshman Teana McKiver
added 15 points in the paint while
Danielle Melvin, scoring 14 points,
ended all hope for Fairfield by
sinking two free throws with four
seconds left on the clock.
With this win, the Pirates would
advance to face the Demon
Deacons of Wake Forest for the
championship game. In this game
Veney led ECU past Wake Forest
78-70 by scoring 26 points and
being awarded the tournament
MVP.
"It was an honor Veney said.
Veney turned her ankle in the
first minute of the WFTJ game and
sat out only four minutes.
"It was a bad sprain Veney
said.
Despite being injured, Veney
toughed it out and continued to go
on strong. The Pirates took a half-
time lead of 37-26 into the locker
room and never trailed after that.
Jen Mortez and Teana McKiver
were named to the All-
Tournament Team to join Veney's
honors.
Up next for ECU's women will
be another tournament. The
Pirates will travel to Davidson to
participate in the Chesebrough-
Ponds Roundball Invitational from
Dec. 5-6. Other teams in this
Invitational are Elon, Davidson
and Bucknell.

Few teams at ECU have the suc-
cess and winning tradition of the
Rugby Club. Since its inception in
1975, the club has never had a los- -
ing season. They kept that impres-
sive streak alive with an 8-5-1 cam-
paign this fall.
"We had an outstanding season
despite all the problems we had
said Rugby Club president Brad
E'almer. "We had a new coach, we
graduated eight of our 15 starters
from last season and wc had a lot of
injuries. It was a cardiac year for
us
The season's highlight was the
trip to the State Championship in
early November. The Pirates have
made it to the finals in every State
Championship Tournament in
which they have competed, so
when ECU faced a team from
UNC-Chapel Hill in the finals of
this year's tournament, it was noth-
ing new. The Pirates eventually
lost to Chapel Hill by seven points.
The Pirates' goal for next
semester is to improve on their fall
record as the stakes get higher in
the spring.
"We are preparing for the Spring
now. We will play in the
Southeastern . Collegiate
Conference this spring. We will
play for a birth in the National
Rugby Tournament run by USA
Rugby Palmer said.
The Pirates will field a squad
this spring that bares little resem-
blance to the team that finished
second in the state in the fall. The
Pirates will be without many of
their more experienced contribu-
tors.
"We look good. We are losing
the other seven starters from last
year, but we're returning two
starters from this year. Our rookies
played a lot this year too. But only
time will tell how good we are
because our only problem is a lack
of experience Palmer said.
The Pirates begin their spring
campaign with practices that will
start when classes resume. The
team will face their first test when

Greenville on Jan. 30.

expecting to compete in three or
more games. The action continues
on Sunday at 11 a.m. when single
elimination contests will determine
the 'l)H I'ltimax Tournament
Champion. Teams are competing
for a first place trophy and the
respect of fellow clubs.
The Irates, the ECU men's
team, and the Helios, the ECU
women's team, are ready to com-
pete. Both teams have high expec-
tations to impress the hometown
crowd and succeed in the tourna-
ment.
"Although wc have a young
team, we have been playing well all
year said Candace Voight, the
women's team president. "We won
a big tournament in Athens, Ga.
which has made us want to practice
and work hard
The ECU men's team is also
having a successful year and has
participated in three tournaments
already this fall. The Irates defeat-
ed rivals UNC, N.C. State, and
UNC-Wilmington to become the
number one ranked frisbee team in
the state last season.
"We finished number one in the
state, but were unable to go to

dent. "We are looking to be nation-

GREENVILLE, N.C. (AP) Four
East Carolina players made the All-
Conference USA first team,
announced Tuesday.
The team was selected by the
league's eight head coaches.
Pirate center Danny Moore
made the team for the second
straight season and was the lone
ECU offensive lineman chosen.
Defensive linemen Rod
Coleman and Travis Darden also
made the team. Coleman made the
second team last season.
Linebacker Jeff Kerr, who
missed three games due to injury
but still led the team in tackles
(115), also made the first team.
Tight end Buck Collins, safety
Kelvin Suggs and punter Andrew
Bayes were selected to the C-USA's
second team.
Quarterback David Garrard and
linebacker Pernell Griffin made the
league's All-Freshman team.
Garrard passed for school freshman
records
2,091 yards and 14 touchdowns.
Griffin started all 11 games this sea-
son and led all conference fresh-
men with 99 tackles.
Tyson's charges end dubiously
ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) Mike
Tyson pleaded no contest Tuesday
to misdemeanor assault, a decision
that could return the former heavy-
weight champion to prison.
Although the plea to the two
counts is not an admission of guilt,
Tyson faces up to 20 years in prison
- 10 years on each count - when he
is sentenced early next year by a
Maryland judge. He also could be
fined up to $2,500 on each count.
The charges stem from an Aug.
31 traffic accident in Montgomery
County, Md involving Tyson's
wife, Monica. Tyson was accused of
kicking and punching two motorists
after the accident.
"You understand that this plea
could affect your parole Judge
Steven Johnson told Tyson before
accepting his plea.
"I'm truly aware of that said
Tyson, who was released from
prison in 1995 after serving three
years of six-year sentence for a 1992
rape conviction in Indiana.
Tyson, who is scheduled to fight
Francois Botha on Jan. 16, would
not discuss his case outside court.
Following the August accident,
Abmielec Saucedo and Richard
Hardick said Tyson attacked them.
They have reached a settlement
with Tyson to avoid a civil suit.
Kemp said Saucedo and Hardick
are prepared to testify at sentencing
that they support Tyson's no-con-
test plea.
"He does not admit to intention-
ally striking anyone when this inci-
dent occurred Kemp said.
Kemp told the judge that Tyson '
became angry when neither
Hardick nor Saucedo expressed
concern for his wife, who was dri-
ving when the accident occurred.
Kemp admitted that Hardick was
struck with a glancing blow and
Saucedo was inadvertently kicked :
as the boxer was restrained by his !
wife and bodyguard.
Tyson is undergoing psychiatric
treatment, one of the conditions
that led to reinstatement of his box-
ing license by the Nevada Athletic
Commission in October. The
license was revoked after he bit
champion Evander Holyfield's ears
during a June 1997 title bout.
Basketball
continued from page 10
during practice- prior to the SW
Louisiana game. He is expected to
stay out of the game between three
to six weeks.
The Charlotte Honeybees, pro-
fessional dance team of the NBA's

ing halftime and timeouts, the
Honeybees will sign autographs

The Pirates will host their first

Webber denies striking
officer, using marijuana
UPPER MARLBORO, Maryland
(AP) Occasionally defiant but
under control, Chris Webber took
the stand Tuesday and denied
striking a police officer and using
marijuana before he was arrested
on his way to a Washington
Wizards practice in January.
"I had to go to work. It's not the
time or place Webber said when
he asked if he had used drugs that
day. "Not that any time is the time
or place
Webber is charged with second-
degree assault, resisting arrest, dis-
obeying an officer,rraanjaafiapos-
session and several traffic-related
offenses stemming from a Jan. 20
traffic stop for speeding near the
Washington Beltway. The arrest
was one of several off-the-court
matters that prompted the Wizards
to trade Webber to the Sacramento
Kings in May.
With testimony concluded, clos-
ing arguments arc set for
Wednesday morning. Prosecutors
have said they will ask for jail time
if Webber is convicted of the more
serious charges.
Webber raised his voice twice in
his defense, once to say "Yes, he
was" when asked if arresting
Officer Raymond Kane had lied
when testifying for the prosecu-
tion, and again when describing
the moment he was hit by pepper
spray while sitting in the driver's
seat of his sports utility vehicle.
The arrest was one of two mari-
juanarjelatcd dealings with the law
this year for Webber, the National
Basketball Association player who
paid a fine after admitting posses-
sion of marijuana found in his
carry-on bag at an airport in Puerto
Rico in August.
Later that month, Fila, the
sneaker maker, canceled its multi-
million-dollar endorsement con-
tract with Webber, saying he had
violated a good-conduct clause.
