Orange cones, bulldozers and
construction workers are begin-
ning to become as much a part
of the university as students.
Jarvis Hall, Student Health Ser-
vices and a new athletic build-
ing are all projects that will ex-
pand the services that students
receive.
Carol Himes, an ECU facili-
ties architect, said the renova-
tions of Jarvis Hall and Student
Health Services are the biggest
projects taking place. The new
Strength and Conditioning Ath-
letic Building is still in the plan-
ning process, and it is thought
that construction may begin by
January.
Chancellor Richard Eakin
praised the current projects.
"I am very pleased with the
pace of construction Eakin said.
"Jarvis will be finished by the
next academic year and the new
entrance on the mall side is very
attractive.
"Health Services renovation
is very exciting. We are bringing
modern technology for students.
"The Strength and Condi-

In the case of many ECU stu-
dents and Greenville residents,
the help that FEMA promised for
flood recovery efforts is taking
too long.
According to Rudy
Hernandez, a Greenville public
affairs officer, 78,000 people in
NC (9,500 of which are Pitt
County residents) have regis-
tered for FEMA funds. Of those
who registered, 26,000 people
have received over $44 million
in disaster aid thus far.
"There are over 3,100 home
inspections that are still waiting
to be completed Hernandez
said. "With the magnitude of this
disaster, lots of variables come
into play when it comes to re-
covery
ECU itself is waiting for
money from the agency.
"We're supposed to be getting
money to cover the damage that
occurred on campus said Rich-
ard Brown, vice chancellor for
administration and finance. "We
haven't gotten any yet and it
could take months or even years
for us to see that money
Brown explained that while
the university and FEMA are
both working to help student
victims, they are not working
together and what each is doing
is "completely different
Some students expressed
their feelings about FEMA's re-
sponse time to their needs.
"I know there are a lot of
people who are bad off, but so

thing is taking so long

Student Union's Open Mic Nite on Saturday
night.
The first student to perform was solo-gui-
tarist Chris Long. He played renditions of
"You're So Bad" by Tom Petty and an all-acous-
tic version of Nine Inch Nail's "The Becoming

on releasing a demo by Spring 2000 and hopes
to come to future open mic events to perform.
He has written several original pieces�
mostly in the rock genre�and a techno song,
which he wrote on his computer.
"I don't want to play anything original
in public until I have it all copyrighted prop-
erly said Long.
Other performers included J. Boogie, who
performed a very brief rap; a comedy team
called "Buff Daddy with "yo momma" jokes

Overall, everything is on schedule

dents next year
She explained how Jarvis was in
serious need of restoration.
"Jarvis is the oldest building on
campus Himes said. "In 1908,
Governor Jarvis started the
groundbreaking on the building. By
1911, its first wing was added and,
in 1923, the second wing was added,
giving the building its U-shape of
today
The Jarvis renovation Is costing
University Housing $5.4 million.
That money comes from students'
housing fees.
"The construction was
planned said Manny Amaro, direc-
tor of housing. "We knew the en-
rollment and planned accordingly.
Everything is going along smoothly.
We are within our time slot we
foresaw the project taking 18
months, and so far we were right.
"Jarvis really needed to be re-
stored Amaro said. "An additional
courtyard is being added to Jarvis
and the dorms will remain as tradi-
tional style with regular double
rooms and hall bathrooms
It Is planned that the residence
halls will be open for students in
May for summer school.
Amaro also explained how this
is not the only the Housing con-
struction project.
"We have a 20-year plan in ef-
fect he said. "Within the next five
years, Jones Hall will be renovated,
a new dining facility will be added
to West Campus and another dorm
will be built. At the moment we are
looking for the dorm to break
ground to College Hill
While Jams' renovation is com-
ing to an end, a building right across
from it has several months left in
its renovations.
The 18-month renovation of
Student Health Services began mid-
October. According to Kay
Wilkerson, director of Health Ser-
vices, the expansion was long over-
due.
"The request for an expansion
was put in 10 years ago Wilkerson
said. "Now that the plans are con-
crete, the process has begun. We
decided to just add to the building
rather than build a new one. Our
location is so convenient for stu-
dents that we did not want to jeop-
ardize that
According to Wilkerson, the cur-
rent Health Services will add 1,200
square feet to the building for a new
clinical unit. The unit will include
two new treatment rooms, doctor
offices, a new physical therapy unit,
a larger X-ray and pharmacy, along
with exclusive bathrooms which
will have window slots specifically
for urine samples.
"The additions will offer stu-
dents more privacy and confidenti-
ality Wilkerson said.
After the addition is completed
in approximately one year, the
Health Services' staff will move into
the new part of the building, while
the old section is being renovated.
That construction should take six
months.
"So far everything is going
smoothly Himes said. "We have
hit a couple of water and electrical
lines, but they were quickly fixed
"We are little behind schedule
due to the flood said Jenna Batan,
Facilities engineer. "But overall
things are coming along well
Overall this is costing the cam-
pus approximately $3.5 million.
Funds are coming from debt ser-
vices, which supported the break-
ing ground of the Student Recre-
ation Center.
According to Chancellor Eakin,
the Strength and Conditioning Cen-
ter could possibly break ground this
month and construction may begin
during the spring semester. The new
building will contain meeting
rooms which will hold 500 on the
upper level, while the lower level
will provide athletes with modern
equipment for strength training.

option is not open to tenants.
"This is FEMA's largest and most
expeditious buy-out program
Hernandez said. "We're working fast
as an agency, but we realize it isn't
fast for the flood victims
Despite the efforts of officials at
the meeting to explain the program,
many citizens left still feeling skep-
tical and frustrated with FEMA.
"They tell you on the phone that
someone will get back in touch with
you and come two or three weeks
later, you haven't heard a word
said resident Mildred Shenkens.
"1 need that money because
we're living in a pop-up camper
right now, which is quite a differ-
ence from our four-bedroom
house
Speaker Pat Young reminded
meeting attendees that the main
purpose of the buy-out program was
to get people out of area that would
possibly flood again, not to restore
people to their pre-flood status.
Officials also explained that
while FEMA seems to be making
little progress with processing appli-
cations for aid, things are actually
moving more quickly than they
have with past disasters. This is due
largely to the increased numbers of
agency staff members who are in Ra-
leigh. With Hurricane Fran, appli-
cations had to be sent all the way
to Atlanta to be processed and then
sent back.

ACROSS OTHER CAMPUSES
Duke U.�A little more than
two years after the Interfraternity
Council set up its remarkably strin-
gent and controversial anti-alcohol
distribution policy, the 17-frater-
nity governing body recently toned
down Its sanctions to make them
more enforceable and to ensure
they mesh with national organiza-
tions' standards.
According to the new policy, a
fraternity's first violation will result
in a10-per-brother fine, as well as
a mandatory 10-hour community
service commitment from each
brother; a second violation will re-
quire a $20-per-brother fine and a
20-hour service commitment. If a
fraternity violates the policy three
times it will lose IFC, and therefore
university, recognition. Also, there
are no longer any IFC sanctions
against individual member's ac-
tions�instead, only whole frater-
nities can be penalized.
The new penalties are much less
severe than the ones put forth in
the 1997 version of IFC's alcohol
policy, in which a fraternity's first
violation resulted in a loss of its
spring pledge class and a second
violation meant a loss of IFC rec-
ognition.
In the two years the old policy
was in effect, no fraternity was pun-
ished by IFC for open distribution
violations. Instead, any offenses
were dealt with by the university,
said Assistant Vice President for Stu-
dent Affairs Sue Wasiolek. She
added that the changes partially
stemmed from national fraternities'
dissatisfaction with the possibility
of chapters losing pledge classes.
Wasiolek said she did not see a
contradiction between the national
organizations' attentiveness to risk
management and their stance that
the 1997 sanctions were too harsh.
"(National organizations ex-
pect chapters to take the policy se-
riously but they don't feel that a
minor first violation should neces-
sarily preclude a fraternity from
continuing Wasiolek said.
"They're not saying the (loss of
pledge classes should not occur�
it just shouldn't be a standard pen-
alty
Beyond these legal issues, many
fraternity presidents said another
catalyst for the change was the fact
that the especially harsh 1997
policy was virtually unenforceable.
"We didn't feel like anyone
would have the motivation to turn
anyone in under such a harsh pen-
alty said IFC President Ken
Collins, a Trinity senior. "It's hard
to make people feel that it is OK to
turn a fraternity in, that the good
they do for the community will
outweigh the social ramifications of
being 'the rat
Trinity senior Jason Barnhill,
president of Kappa Alpha Order,
said that although the 1997 policy
initially cut down on open distri-
bution, its effects did not last long.
"After the policy was in place a
little while, there was kind of a code,
of silence among fraternities, in
that fraternity member 'A' did not
always feel comfortable going forth
with information about a possible
infraction against another frater-
nity Barnhill said, "because his
own fraternity would be under the
microscope

ratings in a meeting with defense
reporters. He said the problem
was mainly a shortage of military
personnel rather than a lack of
equipment or a deterioration in
training.
When asked whether he was
worried about the slip in readi-
ness, Shinseki said, "Sure, any-
time a division commander re-
ports C-4, we are concerned He
added, "We'll see what correc-
tions need to be made
He disputed the notion, how-
ever, that the Army is not pre-
pared to fight two major wan at
nearly the same time, a standard
of readiness that is fundamental
to the United States' national
security strategy. The fights
could be waed, he said, bui at a
higher-than-usual risk of failure.
Although the C-4 rating
technically means the divisions
are not ready for combat in a
major conflict, the Army has a
plan for increasing the man-
power of the 10th Mountain Di-

"gut instinct" tells him the Army
needs a boost in its overall troop
numbers, but he is not ready to
ask Congress for an increase.
Another Army official said
the lowering of the ratings for
the two divisions was part of a
broader administrative change

the war-readiness of its units.

Mechanics Division at UDR1 has
been working for over two decades
in an effort to improve the resis-
tance of aircraft components against
objects such as birds or ice, which
can damage planes and other air-
craft during flight.
Manufacturers responsible for
the production of aircraft compo-
nents such as windshields and en-
gines are required to meet Federal
Aviation Administration standards.
To test the durability of their prod-
uct in simulated flight, manufactur-
ers seek institutions specializing in
these tests.
Aircraft components are tested
using a "chicken gun" to simulate
flying birds in order to test the re-
sistance of the different sections of
the aircraft. The 30-foot long barrel
is actually a compressed-gas gun
with a 7-inch diameter that simu-
lates birds hitting the different sec-
tions of the aircraft at up to 900
mph.
First used In 1977, UDRI tested
the gun using frozen chickens in
order to achieve accurate results.
Later, researchers developed a gela-
tin replacement that was the same
mass and density as the chicken to
continue to record accurate data.
Today, the gelatin cylinder rep-
resenting the chicken is placed in a
holding cylinder called a sabot. In-
serted into the barrel of the com-
pressed-gas gun, the tank releases
gas through the gun representing a
speed previously calculated by re-
searchers. This moves the sabot arjd
gelatin through the barrel until the
sabot is stopped by the narrowirjg
width of the gun and the gelatjn
continues to travel at up to 9(0
mph. The compressed-gas guri re-
leases the object into an enclosed
area where it hits the component
being tested with extreme force, j

OPINION COLUMN
Generosity is your best path to bliss
Demosthenes
OPINION COLUMNIST
In a world full of material possessions driven by
the need to consume, it is sometimes difficult to stay
unselfish and giving. Greed and self-concern are very
low character traits to possess and cannot be part of a
balanced and healthy life. If you have never given
within the blossom of complete unselfish love, then
you will never reap the multiple rewards.
What is it about the act of giving that makes you
feel so good? When you give, you send out a piece of
your love in some way or another and that love will be
returned many times stronger. It is not always easy to
see how it comes back but sometimes it hits you years
down the road, and you smile and remember where it
came from.
Gifts are not restricted to material objects either.
Some of the best gifts I have ever received have been
the time and advice of a friend. Here is something to
try; next time you make eye contact with someone,
perhaps even in the class you are sitting in right now,
smile at them and watch them smile back. Watch the
love come bouncing back magnified.
Why do you need holidays to remind you to be
gWng and caring? Don't wait until Christmas to grve-
someone a present that you probably just bought out
of lack of anything better. Find out what they really
like. Take the time to know them more deeply and give
them something completely out of the blue and with-
out any strings attached. Then you can sit back and
bask in the rapture of watching them really enjoy your
offering.
You can extend this attitude of giving to other ar-
eas of your life as well, such as in your relationships
with other people. Being emotionally unselfish to the
people to whom you are really close to is an extremely
difficult giving task, but when you can truly be this
way with them it shall set you free. Don't allow jeal-
ously, fear of being hurt or your own personal emo-
tional neurosis to stand in the way of giving yourself
completely to the few people who are especially close
to you.
The world could work on the principles of greed
and want and selfishness and in fact it always will to a
greater or lesser extent. But to rise above, oh, to feel
the joy in the acts of thoughtful bestowment; this is
where the real rewards lie. Be kind and giving, until we
meet again.

OPINION COLUMN
Alcoholism is real threat to students
Patrick McMahon
OPINION COLUMNIST
Given the environment that col-
lege-age students create for them-
selves, I think it would be interest-
ing to see how many alcoholics de-
veloped their addiction while in
college.
This is not singling out ECU spe-
cifically, but all colleges. Alcohol,
the breakfast of champions, is the
main ingredient in many students'
diets. Some plan out their week by
how many times they want to go
partying, and on how much beer
they can buy for $20 and have it last
the whole week (you can get a six
pack of Old Milwaukee for $2.89).
When you think about it, many col-
lege students' lives revolve around
the next beer.
As far as Greenville goes, I have
never seen a city which so thor-
oughly embraces the almighty alco-
holic beverage.
Remember Hurricane Bonnie
last year? I mean holy jeepers,
Batman, people even put signs in
their front yard advertising them-
selves as getting drunk. I think the
"Greenville keeps sinking, we'll
keep drinking" sign was one of the
classier examples out there.
Heaven forbid you look from the
city to downtown. Downtown is a
city in itself, awash in bars and clubs
dedicated to the selling and con-
sumption of beer and liquor. This
ready-made environment for drink-
ing can be damaging to a person
who doesn't know their limits, or
their budget for that matter.
They could throw themselves
into the depths of addiction with-
out any ideas of what they are do-
ing until they find themselves wak-
ing up on a Monday morning and
getting drunk for Regis and Kathy
Lee.
With all of this drinking going
on so early in a person's life, the al-
coholism rate must be tremendous.
I think it would be interesting to
trace all instances of alcohol-related
domestic violence offenses, DUIs
I
and disorderly conduct charges back
to when the offender was in college,
and then look at their drinking hab-
its back then.
I'm willing to bet the farm that
there is a direct correlation between
the offense and earlier drinking.
Make no mistake, I like to sit
back and have a beer with my
friends, and I like going to some of
the bars downtown, so don't think
I'm babbling about something I
know nothing about. I know what
my reasonable limits are and try my
best to stick within those limits.
What scares the living hell out
of me is when I see these people
drinking all day and all night, then
getting up the next morning and
doing it all over again.
Alcohol is a drug, and drugs are
addictive. I just hope we all make it
through this trip called college with-
out having every second of our
adult lives dependent upon alcohol.

AND IN NEWS, A NEW REPORT
SHOWS THAT MANY ECU STUDENTS
DRINK HEAVILY TO RELIEVE THE STRESS
OF SCHOOL LIFEWELL DUH!
It has been almost two months since Hurricane Floyd hit, when floods
paralyzed Greenville and the lives of ECU students.
While a number of students have found other housing, the routine of
classes and parties has taken many minds off the thoughts of condemned
houses and lost possessions. Unfortunately, those whose lives were touched
in an extreme manner by the hurricane still must deal with its aftermath.
Now, instead of the recovery effort taking place on the flood plain, it is
taking place on Capitol Hill. While students have taken what they can
from their battered homes and set in motion the wheels of recovery, they
must wait.
FEMA has given students and other victims of the flood monetary help,
emergency housing and options in a time when not much is going their
way.
The organization plans to buy damaged property, reimburse students
for their losses and help meet the needs of those hurt by Floyd.
While FEMA's actions will bring much-needed relief to eastern North
Carolina, the recovery process will take time.
The damage caused by Floyd will tax the'resources of every organiza-
tion geared to help victims. Despite its massive size, FEMA will be no dif-
ferent. With 78,000 people in North Carolina applying for monetary help
from FEMA, relief will come slowly.
However, for those in need, the relief can't come soon enough.
For victims in need, the aid will help rebuild their shattered lives. Al-
though the wait is unbearable, the amount of relief FEMA aid will bring
will be immeasurable. These funds and other relief measures will assist the
victims' long trek towards normalcy and help them to rebuild not only
their houses, but also their lives.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Freedom of speech can not be dictated by officials
Dear Editor,
I recently received a phone call from the coordina-
tor of Greene Hall, the residence hall in which I reside.
She asked me to report to her office so she could talk to
me. I was slightly alarmed, but knew that there was no
reason to be paranoid since I had not broken any rules.
I went down to her office not knowing what to ex-
pect. The coordinator asked me if I remembered stand-
ing outside talking to a group of friends on the previ-
ous Saturday night.
Yes, 1 remembered, but I still couldn't figure out
what the issue was. She then informed me that she
had been in her first floor office while I was outside,
and she had been listening to my conversation. She
said she had heard me speaking in a derogatory man-
ner regarding University regulations and policies. She
began to chastise me for the comments I had made.
I was outraged not only because she had been lis-
tening to a private conversation, but also because I was
being made to feel like a high school student who broke
a rule and as a result was called to the principals office.
The coordinator told me that she did not like my atti-
tude and she would not tolerate it.
I informed her that being a freshmen in college and
considered an adult, I had the right to say whatever
came to mind, especially in a private conversation. I'm
sure that everyone knows that this right is outlined in
the first amendment of the U.S. Constitution. She had
nothing to say to me after that.
I left her office in total astonishment at what had
taken place. I am disgusted with the whole situation,
and I stand firm that although students agree to follow
certain University rules and regulations, we never
agreed to surrender our right to freedom of speech.

Political .snobbery starts at university level
Dear Editor,
My heart bleeds for SGA Presi-
dent Cliff Webster.
After ail, he ran for office on the
premise that he wanted to serve the
university and its students. What a
shame that he didn't know about
the measly $400 per month he
would receive for the job. Now, as
he says, he must get another job to
make ends meet.
Never mind that $400 is nearly
a month's salary for many students
who are working too hard to even
think about extracurricular activi-
ties like SGA.
Never mind that the combined
annual pay of the SGA executive
council would pay for 15 or 20
scholarships to students who, oth-
erwise, might not even get to go to
college.
Poor Cliff. Maybe he should
view SGA as a service�a service into
which he entered, even fought for,
voluntarily, but that would violate
his apparently mercenary attitude.
Or he could view holding the
position of SGA president as a pres-
tigious honor�an honor that will
reflect upon him when he comes
before prospective employers and
provide him with opportunities that
might not be available to those of
lesser stature, but that would not fill
his need for immediate gratifica-
tion. Or maybe Mr. Webster just
thinks that the biggest popularity
contest on campus (next to home-
coming court) should include a
healthier cash prize.
SGA is an extracurricular activ-
ity and a service. It is not either a
job or a career. It is a calling and
those who receive the calling should
be compensated, but not to the
point that it becomes a career. Mr.
Webster was not forced into it, and
he would certainly lead a fulfilling
and successful life without SGA.
He chose to serve his peers and,
in return, he thinks he should get
to be the world's first professional
student politician. And here, I
thought I had it tough because, even
with two jobs, I still had to scale my
classes back to part time and delay
my graduation by two years, just to
survive financially.
Poor Cliff.

OPINION COLUMN
If bats "buy" their friends, then we all do
Chris Sachs
OPINION COLUMNIST
I have wanted to write this ar-
ticle for a long time and I have never
gotten to it. It was not until recently
that a friend brought up the topic
that I have been at odds with for a
long time. The topic is fraternities
(and sororities) and whether they
are bad or good, why they get so
much flack all the time and if they
should go dry in 2000.
Now I knew very little about fra-
ternities�except for attending a few
parties and having a few friends in
them�and yet I always hear people
complaining and badmouthing
them. I never hear a positive thing
about them except from the frater-
nities themselves, and I finally felt
compelled to look into this when a
friend at a bar recently said (in a
drunken sentence fragment), "fra-
ternities guys are $A&!s
I asked my friend why, I mean
really, why do you think that is. He
was unable to give a logical answer.
So I asked others over the past few
weeks why they think the Greek
frats are bad, and for every person I
asked they could not give me a
sound reason why.
Now I know I usually complain
about everything, but 1 am also a
defender of justice, and I don't like
to see people unduly attacked for no
good reason. So I am here to defend
frats and the Greek system and hope
to dispel some myths. And just for
the record, I am not in a fraternity
so my opinion is biased free.
The first part I want to look at is
the oldest argument in the book:
"they are buying their friends
Where is the logic in that? I mean
really, a fraternity is technically a
club, a group of people with the
same ideals and goals, and to main-
tain that club you need revenue.
Let's say the club sounds like fun
and you want to be a member.
Now if you want to join that
club you need to pay your share of
the revenue needed to keep the club
going. Most of you have been do-
ing that since you were kids and will
continue to do so into your old age.
Prime examples are summer camp,
soccer, karate, Little League and pri-
vate schools while you were young.
Hundreds of thousands of adults
belong to the Rotary club, the Ma-
sons' Lodge, Shriners' Club, all cost
some kind of fee. Did they all join
those groups to buy their friends?
No, they joined because of common
Interests and because they're fun.
At last count there were over 115
clubs and organizations here at ECU
and most cost some kind of fee or
dues. So you're telling me that all
these people are buying their
friends? C'mon, give me a break.
The next item I hear about is
that frat guys and sorority girls are
jerks. I don't know about you, but
clubs don't change people nearly as
much as people think. If a nice guy
joins a frat he will most likely be a
nice frat guy. And if there is a frat
guy who is rude and offensive, well
he was probably that way before he
joined.
Fraternities don't make people
jerks; at most they exacerbate that
which was already there. When you
feel comfortable in a group, and you
have your friends around, you open
up as a person. You act crazy and
feel self-confident because you're
surround by people that like you.
They are not jerks; they are acting
the same way that we all do when
in a group of our best friends.
You're telling me that a guy on
the football team doesn't walk a bit
taller when his friends are all down-
town with him? Get real. Hey, Fred
and Barney belonged to the Water
Buffalo Lodge and they were never
called jerks.
This column will be continued
next week in a discussion about why
fraternities are NOT racist or elitist.

Mothers often tell their children that candy is bad for
them, and often, diet gurus and health magazines tout
the benefits of a life of nuts, grains and fresh fruits and
vegetables. When someone is craving sugary sweetness
though, health experts agree that it is not always best to
deny that sweet tooth.
"Anything that brings a pleasurable experience into
your life should be sought out, but in moderation said
Dr. Russ Federman, director of Health ServicesMental
Health.
If a person continually denies their self anything, then
he she is creating in his her body a more intense desire
for that thing. The tendency then is to binge, and there is
more harm in a binge on an entire carton of chocolate ice
cream than a couple of cones of Chocolate Fudge spaced
out over a couple of weeks. Eating candy can bring de-
light not only to your mouth, but also to your psyche.
' "Candy can serve as substance gratification! if you tan
not have a hug from your boyfriend or girlfriend you can
find some satisfaction in candy Federman said.
While candy tan bring both pleasure and gratification,
the sugar in the candy is a mine of calories if indulged in too
often. Anyone can enjoy candy, but many of the common
problems arise when people eat too much. In one level tea-
spoon of sugar, there are 16 calories and 4 grams of carbo-
hydrate. Sugar, corn syrup and artificial flavorings and
colorings can be found in most types of candy.
"Fat free candy is better than most, but the problem
comes not from the fat, but in the amount of calories con-
sumed said Heather Zophy, director of Health Education.
Calories and sugar do not really affect the soul when a
person bites into a delectable caramel apple sucker or a
Werther's Original, but after a while, those calories can be
seen adding up on tummies and thighs.
"From a nutritionist's standpoint, nothing is wrong with
eating candy said Dr. Laura MacArthur, assistant pro-
fessor. "People who are on diets can even use candy to curb
a sweet tooth instead eating of a whole piece of cake
When a person is forced to eat that whole cake (because
they have been in food denial), they are in danger of a calo-
rie overload. The amount of food or calories that a person
eats determines if they lose or gain weight, regardless of
where the calories come from. Empty calories from candy
and other sugary snacks are a hazard because they are not
filling nor are they full of the vitamins and minerals essen-
tial for good health. The other part of the equation for
weight loss, gain or maintenance is exercise and activity. One
must expend the same amount of calories that they consume
to maintain hisher weight.
The amount of food that the average American con-
sumes in a day can be determined by looking at what gro
eery stores sell in pounds of food.
According to Ask the Dietitian, the Site for Sound
Nutritional Advice, by Joanne Larsen, MD RD LD, "the
average American "eats" about 3,600 calories per person
per day and has not changed much from 1909 when it
was 3,500 calories per person per day. These calories come
from milk (14), meat (28), eggs and legumes (5),
grain products (26), fruits and vegetables (14) and
fats, sweets and beverages (13)
In 1909, people expended more calories a day, and
their diet consisted of about 57 percent carbohydrates
and 32 percent fats. The leisure activities have changed,
but fortunately, our eating habits are getting back on
track. In the 80s, the average American diet consisted of
43 percent fats and 46 percent carbohydrates.
A balanced diet, consisting of more carbohydrates
than fat and sugar is important, but self-denial is prob-
lematic. You may be able to resist the Oreos night after
night, but after too long, the whole pack of Oreos will be
empty and you will have eaten every single one.
The resounding message concerning the effects of
candy and sweets all seem to center on one word: mod-
eration.
"Everyone should treat themselves sometimes
MacArthur said.

Every year, people celebrate Veteran's day with bar-
becues and parties. This day was created to give people
a day to remember the thousands of men and women
who gave their lives and liberties for the freedom and
peace we enjoy today as well as enjoy time with family
and friends.
According to the Veteran's Day National Commit-
tee, "An Act approved May 13,1938, made the 11th of
November in each year a legal holiday�a day to be
dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be hereaf-
ter celebrated and known as 'Armistice Day
Armistice Day' was primarily a day set aside to
honor veterans of World War 1, but in 1954, after World
War II had required the greatest mobilization of sol-
diers, sailors, marines and airmen in the Nation's his-
tory; after American forces had fought aggression in
Korea, the 83rd Congress, at the urging of the veterans
service organizations, amended the Act of 1938 by strik-
ing out the word 'Armistice' and inserting in lieu thereof
the word 'Veterans With the approval of this legisla-
tion (Public Law 380) on June 1,1954, November 11th
became a day to honor American veterans of all wars
In Greenville, there will be a memorial service to
recognize those who have dedicated their lives to the
service of their country at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Nov.

Shearin said. The auditions were held Monday and Tues-

Getting a play of this size together takes some work
and a lot of time and dedication.
"The announcement of the play went out at the
end of last semester, the auditions notice went out three
weeks ago and the actual audition material went up
last week Shearin said.
The play is scheduled to open on Feb. 10, 2000.
According to Shearin, there will be four or five rehears-

working on text. When the new semester begins, re-

well, according to Laurie Clautice, a senior theatre arts

for her to give up.
She also feels at ease before her audition.

Even though the veterans are running all of their op-

their families believe that honoring the veterans Is vi-
tal because of the role that they played in defending

The veterans and their families are not the only ones
who believe that Veteran's Day is Important.
"There's a lot of sacrifices that veterans have made
throughout history so that we can have the life that
we know said Captain Donald Davis, assistant pro-
fessor in the AFROTC program.
Davis has been a member of the Air Force for six
years, and enlisted because he wanted to help people.
He could think of no better way than to join the mili-
tary.
According to Davis, it is often heroes such as
Eisenhower and Patton who are remembered by his-
tory, rather than the thousands of unsung heroes who
sacrificed their lives.
"Throughout history, we always remember famous
leaders, but'it is often the unknown people who have
made sacrifices for us and our freedom Davis said.
Veteran's Day is America's chance to take a day to
be grateful for all that we have and to commemorate
those who preserved and protected our rights and lib-
erties.

Pirates gear up for Cincinnati
Team hopes to stop
Bearcats' quarterback

SPORTS EDITOR
With a conference title now out of the picture, and
a titanic match up with archrival N.C. State looming,
it could be easy for the Pirates to overlook this Saturday's
game with last-place Cincinnati. However, coming off
of a loss last week to UAB, odds are they will not look
past the Bearcats.
"We're going to play harder said tight end Rashon
Burns. "We went out in the UAB game and thought we
were going to play hard, but we ran into some bumps
In the road
Cincinnati sits at 3-6 on the season, and 0-4 in con-
ference play. One of their three wins came against then
No. 9 Wisconsin in September.
"We know they've got the talent to beat almost
anybody in the country, they beat top 10 teams said
linebacker Jeff Kerr. "It's going to be a tough game
this week
The Cincinnati offense is centered around quarter-
back Deontey Kenner and running back Robert Coo-
per.
Kenner, a junior out of Hopkinsville, Ky. is in his
first season as a full-time starter. Kenner takes over for
Chad Plummer, with whom he shared the job in 1998.
Kenner and the Bearcats feature a strong passing
attack. Their aerial game has drawn comparisons to the
offense of Tulane.
"The difference between the Tulane offense and the
Cincinnati offense is at quarterback said Head Coach
Steve Logan. "The joker in the deck will be Deontey
Kenner. Whereas the young man from Tulane was not
particularly mobile, this Deontey Kenner can run re-
ally, really well
In addition to passing, Kenner is also an adept run-
ner. The Pirate defense believes they will be able to stop
Kenner.

Gibson expects
best season ever
Tiffany Waters
Assistant Sports Editor
The ECU women's basketball
team plans to give their CAA
opponents a run for their money.
"I am excited about the season
said ECU women's basketball
Head Coach Dee Gibson.
Gibson is looking to her 12
juniors and senior to lead the way
for her younger players.
"I'm looking for Danielle and
Waynetta to lead the team on and
off the court Gibson said.
Leading the defense and offense
are seniors Waynetta Veney and
Danielle Melvin.
"We are looking for big things
from Danielle this year Gibson
said. "She now has a lot of confi-
dence and she will be one of our
big leaders this year
This is only Veney's second sea-
son with the lady pirates but will be
her last due to
her transfer
from the
College of
Charleston to
ECU at the
end of her
sophomore
year.
Waynatta
will get a kit of
touches on the
offense this
year Gibson
said.
"She is a very
vital part of
our program
and all of our
shots should
go through
either her or
Danielle
Also looking to step up this year
and show her stuff is freshman Tali
Robich from Richmond Senior
High School in Rockingham, NC.
"She is an outstanding shooter
who will play small forward for us
Gibson said. "She is going to be a
fine player for us and she will pos-
sibly make a run for Freshman of
the Year
To guide the offense Gibson is
looking for the "1-2 punch" and for
her post players to get down the
floor. Gibson is looking for the run
game to improve and thinks it will
help having a smaller team.
Last season the Lady Pirates
averaged 70 points a game but
Gibson expects the pirates to step
that up and average 80. Gibson
also expects to see the three point
shot more.
"Offensively, I think our strong
point will be our transition Veney
said. "We are focusing on becom-
ing a running team
Running patterns look to cause
small problems for the offense at
first.
"The weakest part of our offense
is remembering the offense (play
patterns) Veney said.
Looking very strong right now is
the pirate defense lead by junior
transfer Tamilla Murray and Junior
Joana Fogaca.
"This is the best defense I've
coached by far Gibson said.
The defense is working great for
the pirates but be a small team may
hurt the program a little.
"Defensively, we have a tough
time getting back in transition and
communicating Veney said.
Looking to cause the biggest
threat to the lady pirates is ODU.
"1 am looking forward to playing
in the game said junior transfer
Tamilla Murray. "I have never real-
ly played in a division one game
and I'm up for the challenge
The Pirates have taken tough
losses from ODU in the past but
look to change that this year.
"We want to pay them back
Veney said.
The biggest change from last year
is the personnel. With eight players
returning and seven newcomers the
team is having to re-gel.
"We're a much smaller team than
last year which can be a positive or
negative thing but hopefully posi-
tive Veney said. "We are a more
mature team with 12 seniors and
juniors
The team is also noted as being
a quicker team than before.
Only in her second season at
ECU Gibson "thinks our returners
have set a precedent for our new-
comers and it takes the pressure off
of me
Needless to say this is going to
be an exciting year for lady pirates
basketball.

The Lady Pirates basketball team
shows promise for the 99-00 season
despite losing both exhibition
games 108-71 against the Hungar-
ian National team and 77-74 to the
Slovakian National team.
The team opened the preseason
in a losing effort against the FTC-
niego Budapest here Sunday. "Over-
all I was very disappointed in our
team said women's basketball
Head Coach Dee Gibson.
The Hungarian team controlled
the game from the get go and never
let up. They dominated the field
goal percentage by a .310-to677
mark.
ECU kept it close in most of the
first half until the Hungarians went
on a 20-4 run with eight minutes
to go until halftime. In the second
half it was all Hungarian.
Danielle Melvin and Waynetta
Veney showed signs of life for the
pirates' scoring in double figure on
the evening. Melvin was 9-for-12
from the line with eight rebounds,
three assists and one steal. Veney
was 4-of-5 from the line with one
assist and one steal. Newcomers

he only needs 46 yards to reach 1,000 for the season.
"We've got to slow their running back down. Rob-

Saturday's game will be the 13th meeting between
the two teams. The Pirates hold a 10-2 series lead.

SPORTS EDITOR
On the night when the fans could get a glimpse ol
the future of Pirate basketball, a pair of familiar face
returned to Williams Arena. The ECU Men's basketbal
team had their first exhibition game of the season, i
88-82 win over the USDBL All-Stars.
The game marked the first game on the Pirate bench
for head coach Bill Herrion.
The Pirates got strong performances from their bi
men. ECU'S Neil Punt and Quincy Hall were the Pi
rates' leading scorers with 16 points and 14 points re
spectively. Alphons van Ireland scored eight points of
the bench.
"I thought we got great production out of oui
frontcourt said Head Coach Bill Herrion. "That's beer
a real emphasis since day one. I thought Neil Punt
Quincy, Alphons, even though he didn't get a lot o
minutes, I felt he did a lot of good things. One of oui
emphasis this year is to get the ball inside, and I thin!
these guys can score inside Herrion said.
The Pirates did not get much production from twe
of their leading scorers from last season. All Confer
ence candidate, Evaldas Joeys went 1-6 from the fielc
and scored five points. Sophomore Brandon Hawkin:
went 1-5 and scored three points.
"Evaldas Joeys is a very, very important part of thi:
basketball team, particularly offensively Herrion said
"He scores five points tonight and gets one basket. Bran
don Hawkins is another very important part of thi
offensive basketball team, he scores one basket and wi
get 88 points. I think that's kind of a positive sign
Herrion said.
The exhibition game was the first time the tean
could square off against someone other than them
selves.

despite ODU loss
Tiffany Waters
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
The ECU women's soccer team
lost 2-0 to Old Dominion Univer-
sity in first round CAA Tournament
play despite having two members
earning All-CAA honors.
�' 'Obviously we were disap-
pointed with the loss said
women's soccer Head Coach Rob
Donnenwirth. "We played strong In
the first half
ODU struck early in the first half
with a goal from Kristin Murray who
dropped a shot from 25 yards out
to give the Mbnarchs a 1-0 lead.
"I was really disappointed about
it said junior midfielder Erin
Cann. "I don't think that we played
to our full potential
Murray's goal came off an assist
from ODU's Anna Gruzalski.
"It was a big disappointment to
everybody because we knew we
could do better said junior
midfielder Kim Sandhoff. "The way
we played in the tournament and
the season proved we had a good
team and people are starting to rec-
ognize it
The game stayed at 1-0 until the
89:51 minute when ODU's Melanie
McGovern scored off an assist from
Jen Henley to assure the 2-0 victory.
"I was disappointed because we
could have done better than that
said senior defender Jill Davis.
The Pirates' season is now com-
plete despite Jill Davis and Kim
Sandhoff who have earned All-CAA
honors.
Senior Jill Davis was named to
the first-team, which marks the first
time an ECU player has ever earned
first-team honors.
"Ifs a real honor to get some-
one on the All-CAA first team
Cann said. "Jill really deserved it
Davis, a 1999 All-CAA second-
team pick, has enjoyed an outstand-
ing career with the Pirates.
"It was kind of bittersweet be-
cause I felt some others on our team
actually deserved it Davis said.
Davis, a four-year starter, leads
the ECU career games played list
with 74.
"She was an unbelievable back
for us all four year Donnenwirth
said.
Junior Kim Sandhoff was named
to the All-CAA second team for the
third straight year.
"Kim is probably the most skill-
ful player on the team
Donnenwirth said.
Sandhoff owns the ECU career
and single-season record for goals,
points and assists.
"She had a great season and it's
good that she got the recognition
she deserves Cann said.
Sandhoff is the team's leading
scorer for the second straight sea-
son as she tallied in seven goals and
assists this season.
"I was kind of disappointed that
more people weren't named to All-
Conference Sandhoff said.

Cowboys deal with life

IRVING, Texas (AP) - What will the Dallas Cow-
boys be like without their three big stars on offense.
They'll find out Sunday when Troy Alkman, Emmitt
Smith and Michael Irvin will miss the same game for
the first time since becoming teammates in 1990.
Injuries ranging from fluky to career-threatening
will force the so-called triplets to be in street clothes
when Dallas plays Green Bay at Texas Stadium.
With Deion Sanders hobbling, too, the Cowboys
(4-4) could be headed toward a lost season. They've
already lost four of their last five games, blowing leads

from page 10
Troy Aikman, Em mitt Smith, Mike
Irvin, Daryl Johnston aren't there.
That's a lot of weapons and with
those guys out, we are kind of shoot-
ing blanks
Irvin, Aikman and Smith were
consecutive first-round picks from
1988-90 who became the nucleus of
the team that won an unprec-
edented three Super Bowls in four
years.
Since Smith arrived, at least two
of them have been on the field for
151 of Dallas' 1S2 regular-season
games. The only exception was a
meaningless finale in 1996 that
Aikman and Smith skipped to rest
for the playoffs.
No other combination of quar-
terback, receiver and running back
has remained together as long.
Irvin has been out for a month
with a neck injury that led to the
discovery of a genetic condition
that could force him to retire.
Aikman and Smith were injured
Monday night in a 27-17 loss to
Minnesota.
A third-quarter sack left Aikman
with a concussion, his second head
injury in eight days and his sixth
concussion in 11 seasons. Aikman,
the National Football League's high-
est-paid player, had headaches most
of last week.
Smith broke the bone behind
the big knuckle on his right ring fin-
ger on a long second-quarter touch-
down run. His hand got stuck in the
mask of a player he was stiff-arm-
ing.
Galloway reports to camp
KIRKLAND, Wash. (AP) Joey
Galloway says he finally decided to
end his season-long holdout and re-
turn to the Seattle Seahawks because
he missed playing in the NFL.
"I realized that playing football
is what I wanted to do the star
wide receiver said after reporting to
the Seahawks and passing his physi-
cal examination Tuesday.
He came to Seattle two weeks
ago to check out his house and see
some friends before returning to his
home in Dublin, Ohio.
"I had a chance to hang out with
some teammates and I got closer to
the situation Galloway said. "It
bothered me when I got on the
plane to go back to Ohio. It both-
ered me that I wasn't joining the
team, that I wasn't playing foot-
ball
His holdout began when he
missed the start of training camp in
Cheney on Aug. 1. It cost him
$1,047 million: $837,117 in lost sal-
ary and $210,000 in fines. During
the holdout, the Seahawks took
their $35 million, seven-year con-
tract offer off the table, including a
$7 million signing bonus.
Without Galloway, new coach-
general manager Mike Holmgren
has the Seahawks off to a 6-2 start
and in first place in the AFC West.
They won at Green Bay on Monday'
Night Football and beat Cincinnati
at home last week.
The Seahawks will play Denver
in the Kingdome next Sunday
night.
Galloway said he was ready to
start helping his team right away,
but wasn't sure when Holmgren
plans to start using him. On Mon-
day, Holmgren said it would be dif-
ficult for Galloway to begin playing
right away. Holmgren did not talk
to reporters on Tuesday.
Holmgren can choose to use a
two-week roster exemption for Gal-
loway.
When the player and coach met
Tuesday, Holmgren handed him a
thick playbook. Galloway took part
in Holmgren's minlcamps.
The Seahawks players had Tues-
day as their day off. They return to
practice on Wednesday.
"I'm going to give it everything
I have Galloway said. "I want to
play as soon as possible. The coach
will have to make a decision later
on in the week whether he thinks
I'm ready to play or not
In Galloway, the Seahawks are
getting back their best offensive
player. Galloway was Seattle's first
receiver picked in the first round of
an NFL draft. With blazing speed,
he gives new starting quarterback
Jon Kitna a deep threat to stretch
defenses, taking the pressure off vet-
eran running back Ricky Watters.
Galloway will play under the
terms of the final year of his five-
year contract for $1,585 million,
minus his fines and $93,235 for
each week missed. In order to be-
come a free agent in March, he
needed to be on the Seahawks' ros-
ter for the final six games of the
regular season.
The Seahawks still can hold on
to Galloway by declaring him their
franchise player. It's unclear
whether Holmgren will try to retain
Galloway, although he said
throughout the holdout that he
wanted to keep him to help the
team this season.
Galloway was the clear loser in
his confrontation with Holmgren,
who arrived in Seattle from Green
Bay in January. But he handled a 10-
minute interview session the way he
handles some of the NFL
comerbacks who have to try to con-
tain him: smoothly and efficiently.
"I don't think it was hard at all,
but I was a little anxious coming in
today he admitted. "I don't look
at it from a money standpoint right
now. I want to move forward and
play football. I'm not going to sit
and say, 'Gee, I wish I had that
money. I wish I had played 4
He said his meeting with
Holmgren went well.
"I think both sides are going to
have some hard feelings Galloway
said. "But, hopefully, those hard
feelings are left outside. I know
mine were
Galloway said Seattle's best start
since 1984 played a pivotal role in
his decision to end his holdout.
"A lot of people say, Ts it tough:
to come back?' I reply, 'Why would,
it be tough to come back to a team,
that's 6 and 2 and playing the way
these guys are playing?' Hopefully
I can help out
Galloway said he hoped to be a
member of the Seahawks beyond
this season. He still hopes a new
contract can be worked out with the
Seahawks. ,
"From the very beginning of,
this, I've wanted to sign a long-term,
deal in Seattle he said. "That's
been my goal the whole time.1
There's been a lot of reports that I
want to go back to Ohio. That is:
very untrue
