FraterniMe will resume serving alcoholic beverages during this fall's rush. Several reasons were cited sup- porting the initiation of dry rush. The fraternities were attempting to avoid problems caused by the necessity of checking identifica- tion of all rushees. They were also concentrating on eliminating students who attended rush par- ties only because of the alcohol. The fraternities did well and had a "good rush said Inter- Fraternity Council President Glenn Conway. However, he ad- ded, "the fraternities that did best were the ones that held big all- campus parties before rush Conway said that although the parties were not officially rush parties, they served the same pur- pose. "In order to have a totally dry rush, we'd have to ban all all- campus parties he said. When all-campus parties are held, there is no structure, Con- way said, causing a greater risk than with a structured wet rush. In addition, Conway said some fraternities did not fare as well with the dry rush. A set of guidelines has been drawn up to assist in regulating this year's rush. "If these are followed, there will be no pro- blem Conway said. Associate Dean of Orientation and Judiciary James Mallory also said if organizations follow the guidelines, they should not have problems. Jt.U unless il is d?ne with the cooperation of everybody, is a farce he said. Mallory said he felt that if alcohol was restricted for only three days it was a useless effort. "You can only have dry rush if somebody passes a rule stating that you don't serve alcoholic beverages to non-greeks " Mallory said. This, he said, would place further emphasize qualitv instead of quantity among rushees. Mallory said he hopes the fraternities "are familiar with the inherent dangers. I'd hate to see a big lawsuit ? it doesn't take but one slip and then you have all kinds of repercussions With dry rush, Mallory said costs are lower, and "you're sell- ing a fraternity on its virtues, not by having a keg of beer Both Mallory and Conway said passage of the 21-year-old drink- ing age will make the question academic. "It will be a reality soon said Conway. "Why not give them a chance to use the beer as a tool now?" SGA President John Rainev said he supports a dry rush. Drv rush, he said, "brings out people interested in the fraternity system not just m the party aspect of it " "We should give it one more try, Ramey said.

The salary increases were deter- mined by the UNC Board of Governors and apply to all faculty members in the UNC astern. The decision was made to allocate $37.8 million appropriated bv the General Assembly to increase At LSU Most non-teaching employees will receive a 10 percent across- the-board raise. The additional 3 Percent allocated to teaching faculty will be distributed at the discretion of individual chancellors. During 1983, there were no laculty raises due to a salary freeze within the UNC system. In fiscal 1984, 5 percent raises were authorized. According to ECU Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Angelo Volpe, it will be September before most faculty members see the effects of the salary increases. They will be retroactive to July 1, however Currently, individual departments are in the process of recommen- ding raises. These increases must be approved by the UNC General Administration before being made effective. Volpe said the additional 3 per- cent will be awarded based on in- dividual merit, recent promotions and years of service, as well as other criteria. In addition, it will be used to make adjustments in the existing salary structure. While it is possible for the raises to range from 7 percent to 13 per- cent, Volpe said he did not think the range would be that great here He said he feels most of the faculty here do their jobs, thus warranting merit raises Funds for salary adjustments will also be taken from monies available from vacant positions According to a recent studv published in The Chronicle of Higher Education, the salaries at 22 rank in aPProximatelv the 50th percentile nationwide. Based on a nine-month salary and ex- cluding fringe benefits, the average salary for a full professor is $33,300; for an associate pro- fessor, $27,300; an assistant pro- fessor averages $22,100 and an in- structor $19,500. Faculty salaries at N.C State and UNC-Chapel Hill nink in ap- proximately the 60th percentile. Instructors' salaries it all three institutions are ranked in higher percentiles than those of pro- fessors. Volpe attributes this to the fact that the instructors' star- ting salaries are "so low that they try to increase them as much as possible (CPS) ? a fundamentalist Christian group has claimed its first victory in a war against the rock music played on and around the Louisiana State University campus.

Among other things, M-PIRG officials argued the law discriminates against male students, places an unfair burden on low-income students, and violates students' Fifth Amend- ment rights against self- menmination. While the case made its way to the Supreme Court, campus of- fices began requiring students to sign a "statement of compliance" form certifying they'd registered tor the draft or were exempt from the requirement. "The decision will have no real effect, other than taking away some of the controversy surroun- ding the law says spokesman Duncan Helmrich. "We're just glad to hear that it is finalized "All it does is make it clear that the requirement is legal says Samuel McCracken, a spokesman tor Boston University, which filed a "friend of the court" brief in the M-PRIG case last year sup- porting the amendment. "We fee! that if you don't want to support your country and register for the draft, then you shouldn't expect your country to support your education he says Other aid officials, though aren't as happy with the decision "We've been enforcing the law all along notes Iowa State's aid chief Jerry Sullivan. "So it won't mean a lot of extra work for us, just a lot of unnecessary work Worse than the extra work in- volved with the amendment, he adds, is the idea that it is "unfair" and has nothing to do with finan- cial aid. "It's overkill he argues, " and it affects a group of people from low income families while those students who are wealthy can simply not apply for aid And now that the law is offical- ly constitutional, students and aid officals can anticipate some changes that could make the pro- cess even more complicated next Beginning in the 1985-86 school year, students will be required to bring a "letter of acknowledge- ment from the Selective Service to verify they have actually registered. Currently, students simply sign the statement of com- pliance when they apply for aid. That could really magnify the administrative burden even 533: HS!ys Dona,d Ro"th, Yale s aid director.

This year, 24 states will distribute $111 million in no-need aid, according to the National Association of State Scholarship and Grant Programs. Freeman concluded they may be wasting their money when try- ing to lure students to private col- leges. "Its not cost effective he found. "According to our data nine of the ten students the schooi gives the no-need scholarship to would have come there anyway So it spent $20,000 on ten no-need scholarships in order to get one extra student "Psychological incentives" are much more effective recruiting tools, he argues. ?ml S,Ch?Lols send the kid a 11000 scholarship with a form let- !?r Freeman Pointed out while others give the kid the $1000 by having him come to campus with his parents and going to a reception at the president's house. It's perceived more as an honor, and it's more likely to con- vince a kid to enroll than a form letter Freeman's study did not ad- dress the other major issue in merit scholarships: .that money given to students who don't really need it means less money for students who need it . The CSS's study of merit scholarships, however, estimated that only three percent of the na- tion's aid money went to no-need grants.

Besides eliminating the "letter of acknowledgement" require- ment, he says, "we'd like schools to have the option of not requir- ing a student to fill out the form year after year, and the ability to exempt certain groups of students ? such as women ? from having to file the compliance form While no one is sure how many students have refused to sign the compliance forms, over 16 people nave been indicted on charges of failing to register for the draft says Selective Service spokeswoman Joan Lamb. Of those, eight have received sentences ranging from two years in jail to simple probation, she says. Officials have no way to tell if the Solomon Amendment has caused more young men to register for the draft, "bui we did see a big jump in the number of registrants the iast two weeks of August and first week of September last year Lamb adds. That coincides with when a lot of campus aid offices were requir- ing students to sign the com- pliance forms Ninety-eight percent of all eligi- ble males are now registered for the draft, Lamb says, making a total of over 12.4 million registrants to date.

IZ.CINA, Attvertmng Technician July 25, 1984 Opinion Page 4 Miss America Guccione Exploiting Miss Williams The Mi?? AmpriVo D?? ? The Miss America Pageant is as American as apple pie and baseball. Some say it is sexist, but it isn't. In fact, the beauty part of the program accounts for less in the overall scoring than the parts for brains and talent. We all adore the holder of the title, for she represents the best of our nation's young women. But, this year something has gone amiss. Vanessa Williams, the 57th Miss America, has relinquished her crown after sexually explicit pic- tures of her appeared in Penthouse magazine. We do not condone what she has done. We could even defend her if the pictures were more the type printed in Playboy but they aren't. The spread is more consistent with those of Hustler. She, though, is not the problem Bob Guccione, the publisher of Penthouse, is. He says he is only trying to shatter the myth of the "vestal virgin" that the pageant er- roneously portrays. He isn't; he's exploiting Miss Williams plain and simple. Mr. Guccione, in order to shat- ter this myth had to raise his cover price from three to four dollars. We assume it is expensive to shat- ter myths. But, Guccione is not chopping down only a myth, he is breaking a heart. He cares nothing tor Miss Williams. He cares only for her selling power. In our socie- ty he is free to print what he wants and that is good. But the abuse of that freedom only wrongs all of America in the long run. For what he is doing, we will label him scuz- zy. Tom Chiapel, the man who took the pictures is also among the men m that category. He, trying to make a fast buck, allegedly broke a promise to Miss Williams that the pictures were not to be published and were for private use only. The pageant was only slightly wronged by what Miss Williams did, but what Mr. Guccione and Mr. Chiapel did to her was definitely worse. All legal questions about the release of the pix aside, we hope these men fed good about what they have done. They have com- mitted greed, and in the process with a little help from Miss Williams, they have scarred America. The president and his chief political advisers were watching the Democratic National Convention last Thursday in the upstairs sitting room of the White House. After seeing the reception Geraldine ?S? ?ot' one of the aides said, Well, are you now convinced Mr President, that we still have a gender gap?" The president said, "I've done more for women than any president history Dresses' For in Art Buchwald Good Afternoon.

Our past as expressed through architecture and nature, brings us to where we are and enhances our present and future. More effort needs to be directed towards blending past, present and future here in the physical environment. I abhor the loss of Eleanor Coleman's house across Fifth Street from the main en- trance to the campus. The residential aspect of Fifth Street needs to be preserved. This house could have been used for much needed office space in- ?r? i?r thcr P Parking ot One day ECU must face the fact that parking decks are the answer to the chrome parking problem, not the ugly spread of never-ending asphalt lots The citizens of Greenville need to make their outrage known publicly not just privately. Solutions to ECU's need for expansion can be found if University officials and Greenville citizens will work together on them. The much-needed classroom building has been funded by the legislature and plans still call for its constriction in the middle of the Sallie Joyner Davis Arboretum, obliterating another natural refuge. This building could easily be built on the site of one of the many sprawling asphalt parking lots located near the center of the cam- pus. A parking deck would free up much of the space now occupied bv these parking lots. Also from the pic- ture published in the East Carolinian it is obvious that little thought has been put into blending the architecture of the new and old buildings. I am happy to discover that money is being provided to repair the roof of the old cafeteria on the main uriMrrtRr campus. It is one of the original buildings. However, I am sorry to find out that the contract calls for discar- ding the roof tiles after removing hem to complete roof repairs. This seems to u ??Jtrend in camPus repairs on the old buildings. There is too much emphasis on short-term, inexpensive repairs as opposed to considering the long-erm costs of constantly repeating the repairs. Can the extra expense of put- ting the tile back on the roof ? tiles that have lasted 75 years - compare to the cost of the frequent replacement of shingles that will be faced in the future? ECU is taking a step in the right direction by repairing the old cafeteria but at the same time she is movim? in the wrong direction by discarding the roof tiles destroying the Arbor urn and demolishing the Coleman house The University needs to expand md to solve its parking problems. Let m all work together to provide solutions t hat have a minimal negative impact on the beauty and heritage of Greenville.

Besides a spectacular cast Producer Edgar R. Loessin combines special sound effects with musical excellence to yield the Summer Theatre's most peppy Play yet. The 1940s Radio Hour, written by Walton Jones, originally began in 1972 as a one-man radio drama. From there it turned into a Cabaret production and finally hit New York in October of 1979. The setting and sound effects which play a major role in The 1940s Radio Hour, make the play both believable and amusing. Us- ing everything from cornstarch to coconut halves to a toilet plunger the cast of WOV (V for Victory) of New York recreates an old-time radio program for its "home listeners" and live audience. In this case the theatre audience acts as the "studio audience The au- dience is even instructed when to clap by two illuminated "Ap- plause" signs extended from the ceiling on either side of the stage. Now Summer Theatre veterans Don Biehn and John Kuhn close the 1984 season as Clifton A. Fed- dington, the somewhat-hyper sta- tion producer and announcer and Johnny Cantone, the cocky, womanizing station star. Other familiar faces include Barbara Gulan as the cute little Connie Miller, Michael Krohn as the abashed Neal Tilden, Jeanne Resua as the sexy Ginger Brooks, Gary Lamb as the unshaven assis- tant Lou Cohn, Tremaine Wad- dell as the soul-singing Geneva tre! LBrown. Jane Barrett Underhill as the aloof Ann Col- lier, and John Vaughan as the clean-cut B.J. Gibson. The remaining cast members also contribute to the show's humor.

ECU News Bureau A slamming door, the creak of a footstep on the stairway ? i those special sound effects that kept old time radio listeners on the edge of their seats are being recreated this week in the East Carolina Summer Theatre pro- duction of The 1940s Radio Hour. To revive the glory days of radio in a stage performance, set designer Michael Franklin-White and the theatre production crew have fashioned an elaborate radio sound room with flashing signs meters, dials, and a complete set of sound effects instruments drawn straight from the pages of radio history. Canvas cloth stretched over a revolving drum reproduces the whisper of a gentle breeze or the roar of a winter storm. The crunch of footsteps in the snow is made by squeezing a box of corn- starch next to the microphone. In the listener's imagination, the rumble of wooden pegs on a tabletop becomes the footfalls of an advancing army. "It's tough to guess what some of the things, like the cornstarch, Effects Uniquely are supposed to do until you hear them said Spence Ball, a pro- perties carpenter who built the larger devices. "Other things are Pretty straightforward For example, a pitcher and glass placed on the table are put mto action when a radio character Pours a drink. A pair of old wingtips, worn on the hands, is used for footsteps. Fabric is swished across a curtain rod before a window is opened. A bicycle horn sounds just like, well a bicycle horn. Some effects must be done in minature. Coconut halves beaten together make the clopping of horses hooves. A pair of small metal wheels cranked across broken bncks replicates the sound of carnage wheels on a cob- blestone street. A three-foot tall door is slammed shut to signal a character's exit from the room One sound that has no substitute is the ringing crash of breaking glass. Designed to safely shatter a two-foot square of win- dow glass, the sound booth's glass smasher is a knee-high box covered with metal screening and topped with a hinged lid. When 'Breaking Properties Carpenter Spence Ball is disolavinir ?nm? ?r u L,$UK T?w. ??? to The 1940's Radio Hour. P some of the more unusual devices that add to the realism the rowdy cowpoke gets tossed through the barroom window, the sound man simply swings the lid shut. A protruding bolt cracks the glass and wire mesh surrounding the box contains the flying shards Metal bars mounted across themterior of the box draw out the tinkling of the glass as it falls. Ball said that all of the devices used in the producrion were pur- chased locally or constructed in the theatre's workshops. Descrip- tions, line drawings, or photographs of the more unusual pieces were inck.ded in the package of construction blueprints for the stage set. "The final appearance of mam pieces on a set is often left to the imagination of the people who .are doing the work for that particular production said set designer Franklin-White. "In this case I had already done one of the three original productiens of The 1940s Radio Hour at the Arena Stage in Washington, D.C so I was able to furnish a lot of detail- ed information on the sound booth devices for the summer theatre crew to work from Elton John Changes Image For The Better Elton John By DAVID WTTHERINGTON In the mid-1970's, Elton John was a superstar in every sense of the word. He had the teenage market cornered with his glitter- rock image, and his quality material appealed to an older au- dience as well. I still feel good all over when I hear "Rocket Man" or "Bennie and the Jets' on the radio, and it's hard to hold back the tears on the sad songs like "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word Elton John was an artist who used the power of emotion to its fullest extent. In 1984, Elton's image isn't what it used to be ? the glitter and makeup are gone, and the pretentious concept albums are a thing of the past. And you know what? I'm tickled pink, because this fate has brought Elton back down to earth and to his roots. These days, he concentrates more on the music than the image, and it has resulted in his finest album since the classic Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. The title of the new LP, Break- ing Hearts, says it all. The ten new songs tie in to run the gamut of emotions from rejection to reflec- tion. "Restless" starts us off, ap- propriately enough, with the in- secure feeling of "looking for something that just ain't there This paves the way for "Slow Down Georgie with a guy warn- ing his best friend about the girl he's falling for: "Well it ain't my job to rain on your parade But if the chips were down, you'd do the same for me It's always been that way She's got you paralyzed with a pack of lies About honour and the single girl And if you buy that line you must be out of your mind You must be living in another world These lines can be taken two ways ? is the friend telling the truth about the girl in question, or is this merely his ploy to win her for himself? I'm glad we never find out. It just makes the song that much more compell- ing. "Who Wears These Shoes?" takes the love triangle one step further, centering on the feelings of the jilted party: "There's a light on in your window There's a shadow on the street Two silhouettes tell me it's over The shadow knows that shadow's me. As our despondent friend tries to find out who's taken his Place Dee Murray's throbbing bass line pullsyou into the song wnhthe intensity of a pounding In the title track, Elton reflects on the trials and tribulations of unrequited love: "They used to say that boys are tough as nails In every way he keeps his heart as guarded as a jail Now things have changed, I fed so old Oke any girl xuld drag my heart across the coals With hs sparse- arrangement and tender vocals, this is one of the most beautifui Pieces Elton John has ever record- ed.

There's something here for vengeful Romeos out there too In "Did He Shoot Her?" our hero sings: I ell him I'm ready any time he chooses The pay-off for the things he's done He ain't messin with no two-bit bandit Armed with a couple of guns Before I close, i" must give credit where credit is due. Elton co-wrote these songs with his long-time collaborator Bernie Taupin, whose gift of melody is unsurpassed. And the competent Players are from Elton's original band ? the aforementioned Dee Murray on bass, Davey Johnstone on lead guitar, and Nigel Olsson on drums. So, to revive the old cliche what becomes of the broken- hearted? That is the eternaJ ques- tion, and while Elton John can't Provide a solution, he can sure help heal the wounds. The album's brooding mood culminates in the hit single, "Sad Songs (Say So Much) When they're yours, Elton, they say more than enough. Breaking Hearts is available at the Record Bar in Carolina East Mall and the Plaza. Comic Books Still Popular Publications B DAVID WITHERINGTON Si.ffHrilw Once comic book readers were stereotyped as kids or juvenile delinquents. Now there are thousands of comic book collec- tors and fans across the United States, ranging from grade- schoolers to grandfathers. Numerous conventions for col- lectors and dealers occur every weekend of the year, and hun- dreds of comic book stores in most larger cities specialize in items for the comic book collector and fan. Although comics were once aimed specifically at a pre-teenage market, there are now comic books for every age group, from grade-school favorites like Casper and Archie, through the more mature adventures of Superman and Spiderman to the adult strips found in "undergrounds" and magazines ike Heavy Metal and Epic in addition to the current periodicals, there are now more books reprinting the classic comic favorites of yesterday than ever before. Collections can be found in hardback, softback and paper- back editions. Comic book characters are ex- panding into other mediums however. Superman, The Hulk Wonder Woman, and Spiderman are all recent examples of just some of the comic book heroes to appear on television and in the movies.

The best source of comics for Greenville area fans has, for over three years, been the Nostalgia Newstand located with the Booktrader on Dickinson Avenue. The store offers the fan and collector thousands of current and back issue comics, posters by fan favorites, and comic book- related publications. A number of the current comics offered cannot be obtained on the regular news stands. Titles like The Spirit, Moonknight, Cerebus the Aard- vark, and Captain Victory are among the growing number of comic books known as "Direct Sales Comics This means they are sold to stores on a non- returnable basis; therefore, most news stands will not carry them. The propi ietor of the Nostalgia ' Newstand and area fan collector is Charles Lawrence. He has the following advice to would-be col- lectors: "You should only collect the titles you enjoy reading. Speculating is risky business and even more so with recent books.

By RICK McCORMAC Staff Writer After last season's disappoin- ting 4-23 record, ECU basketball coach Charlie Harrison is working to get his program moving in the right direction. Last spring Harrison asked ris- ing sophomores Leon Bass, William Grady and Roy Smith to attend both sessions of summer school because he felt it would benefit them both academically and athletically. Harrison said that none of his players had to go to summer school to be eligible for the up- coming season, but felt he owed his players the chance to graduate with their class. According to Harrison, two reasons for last year's record were immaturity and a lack of physical strength inside. "Last year people carried the ball inside and just muscled it up he said, "and then we would come down and couldn't score on the inside and would end up taking a bad shot After several exchanges such as this, the other team would usually open up a lead and Harrison would have to call timeout to make an adjustment. Another problem Harrison fac- ed was having a team with a lack of actual playing experience. "In North Carolina kids just don't play enough during the summer Last year this caused Harrison to devote much of time to individual needs, and he said "even near the end of the season we were work- ing on individual improvement in- stead of team play When the Pirates open their season Nov. 27 in Minges Col- iseum against Central Connecticut State last year's freshmen will not only have a year's experience behind them, but they will also be stronger. Under the direction of strength coach Mike Gentry ? Bass, Grady and Smith have all added weight, and according to Harrison, "It's not just weight, but good muscle weight Bass, 6' 11 weighed 178 pounds last season, but now weighs 210. Grady has added 15 pounds to his frame and Harrison feels that he will now be able to play small-forward against taller opponets because of his added strength. Smith, a 6' 7" forward, has gained 22 pounds. Harrison felt Smith's biggest problem last year was weakness, but said he was such a good athlete that he could get by just jumping over people. Another player who could help in the coming season is Peter Dam, a seven-foot recruk from Holland. When asked what to ex- pect from Dam in the coming season, Harrison said "I sincerely don't know ? I've only seen him play on tape However, ECU's third-year cocach did say Dam was "a good defensive player who rebounds and runs the court well for a big man. "He needs help offensively Harrison continued, "but I can teach someone offensive moves ? what I can't teach is someone to be seven feet tall Harrison also said Dam is "making one hell of a sacrifice" to leave his family and lifestyle to play basketball for ECU, and feels he will only get better because he is driven to be a better basketball player. Harrison said ro positions are secure for the upcoming season, but feels through hard work dur- ing the summer and fall months that the Pirates will be an improv- ed team in '8485. According to ECU basketball coach Charlie Harrison makes up for his weakness by "just jumping over peoph Roy Smith By TONY BROWN Staff Writer "Sometimes you take a shot at it and win That's the optimistic attitude that got Bob Gennarelli his current post as ECU's Sports Information Director. After several years as a sports reporter with the Dallas Morning News and the Houston Post, Gen- narelli needed a new challenge, so when he was offered a job at the University of Houston as a senior assistant sports information direc- tor, he accepted. The job satisfaction and ex- perience gained during his 16 month stay there led him to apply for ECU SID when he learned of the opening from a friend in Houston. "A reporter I knew did a feature on the East Carolina foot- ball team because (ex-ECU runn- ing back) Sam Harrell was leading the Houston Gamblers and the LSFL in scoring at that time. When I heard the job was available, I just decided to go for if " The transition was made more difficult because there was so much information to put out all at once. "The baseball team was in the NCAA playoffs, coaches were coming and going and I was trying to get organized at the same time Gennarelli said. "It's very different than at Houston he added. "At Houston all thfc media came to you ? here it takes a lot more ef- fort to attract interest in the sports program. "We have to make sure media guides get to the right people and create more interest for our athletic program in major cities so as to increase our marketability. "Since the successful football season last year there has been about a fifty percent increase in requests from the media for infor- mation and a large part of our time is involved with satisfying their needs. "We do this through regular mailings around the country and by generating favorable publicity Gennarelli stated. "Our job is to get recognition for artmc ECU Other functions of the SID in- clude trading information with opposing schools on athletics and producing the football programs. This year the programs will have more color and some new features. "We want the programs to reflect the growth of Pirate foot- ball as a 'big-time' power said Gennarelli. "Last year Ken Smith had to do everything himself as SID, but his promotion to the new post of Assistant Athletic Director of Public Relations and the addi- tion of an assistant SID make it possible to work on details. Along with more color the pro- grams will include the bowl game dates. "We warn to give an at- mosphere of confidence Gen- narelli said. "We want to portray the attitude that we expect to be at a bowl game The addition of an assistant SID is an example of this attitude. The expansion in this important support function is indicative of growth and faith in the future. Rob Wilson was picked to fill this spot from a position at Florida State University as a graduate assistant SID. He had played football for a year at Ole Miss before transferring to FSU, but decided to work in sports in- formation there. He handles non-revenue sports such as soccer, track and volleyball and also works with women's basketball. Wilson is one of a two-man team according to Gennarelli and assists with football and basketball. "When I was first at FSU, nobody paid much attention to us because the team hadn't gained any recognition Wilson said, "but when we started winning it really changed. "If ECU can win again this year against the major teams he added, "nobody can say we just snuck up on them ? they'll have to believe we're for real Wilson also oversees the stu- dent assistant staff which present- ly consists of Brooks Thomas, b will increase soon. Thomas helps with the legwork and general tasks. Both agree that their job is made much easier when the Pirates win. "You can he a great SID at a losing school, but not t.e: noticed they echoed. Both Bob Gennarelli and Rob Wilson want to creae some new traditions that go along with being a national power. After all, nothing succeeds like success! Floyd Continuing As Student Coach Women's Softball 1984-85 Recruits By PETE FERN ALP Head softball coach Sue Manahan is enthusiastic about the Lady Pirates' upcoming season with the addition of some faster recruits for '85. "I was excited about last year's team, but we lost some of our faster players Manahan said, "I tried to recruit some players to Fill that weakness Manahan said last year's team as also weak on offense. "Next season we'll have a little more of- fensive torque with experienced Players returning and the addi- tional recruits ? we should be a very competitive team Lisa Zmuda, a native from New York, was one of the leading hit- tos on last season's team and ac- cording to Manahan will be a Possible candidate for team cap- tain. "Lisa is a strong offensive and defensive player. I can usually Put her anywhere in the field. "In addition, the pitching staff will be returning and we'll have experience behind the plate Last season the Lady Pirates competed against Penn State, South Carolina and Florida State and will once again face an ex- tremely difficult schedule in '85.

She's one of the players that will add speed to the line-up Julie Farrow, Manteo, NC. Amanda Price, Sneedsbury, NC. Most athletes' scholarships ex pire when they play out their final year of eligibility, but such is not the case if you're a member of the Pirate football team. Every year several ECU seniors still have to fill a few requirements in order to graduate, and if they have a good attitude and still want to be part of the football pro- gram, head coach Ed Emory keeps the players on scholarship by having them take part in the student coaching program. Shews9 Corner Editor's Column Softball Coach Sue Manahan Manahan said that she was pleasantly surprised with the recruiting season and doesn't ex- pect to sign any new players ex- cept for walk-ons. The team will start practice in the spring of 1985, and Manahan is still in the process of deciding whether to take a "southern trip" to Florida during spring break in which ECU would compete against some top-notch teams. One player that fits in perfectly with the program is last year's starting center John Floyd. "I've wanted to be a coach all my life and I'm getting a good start by doing this Floyd said. "My dad coached for 18 years, and that's all I've ever wanted to do. "It's not like a job because I'm still on scholarship Floyd con- tinued, "it's just staying involved. I think it will be a good experience and will help me in the long run The student coaching program was implemented by Coach Emory when he arrived at ECU, and the fourth-year coach feels it has served its purpose well. "The program lets the kids sec the whole picture Emory explained. "When they were players they on- ly looked at things from one standpoint ? now they see things in an entirely different perspec- tive Emory also thinks the program is a good experience for everyone involved, and said he views it as an internship. "We give the kids a great deal of responsibility he said. "They help with recruiting, in the weight room and they also get to work with the best coaching staff in the country Floyd started as a student coach during spring practice, and said he got some good coaching ex- perience during that time. "It was a lot different standing on the sidelines, but I learned a lot of things about being a coach that I didn't know before During the summer months the football staff has been busy preparing for the upcoming season, and Floyd said he and the other student coaches have been doing "anything we can to help out Some of the things Floyd has done while in summer school in- clude: helping out with football camp, recruiting junior college players over the phone and runn- ing a lot of errands to Raleigh. The 6' 1 265-pound Fairmont, N.C. native says he enjoys every minute of what he's doing because he knows it will help him in his future endeavor to be a college coach. When the team reassembles in preparation for their Sept. 1 season opener at Florida State, Floyd's duties will almost ex- clusively consist of coaching. "We'll help the freshmen learn the system, manage some of the younger guys when they break in- to scout teams and also help coach n people at the positions we played last year One of the players Floyd will be helping out this fall is his expected replacement, Tim Mitchell. Floyd said one of the hardest things about being a student-coach is having authority and trying to help people like Mitchell, who already know as much about be- ing a center as he does. "If I went somewhere else it wouldn't be that hard Floyd ex- plained, "but I'm friends with all the guys on the team and it's kind of hard to separate yourself from them. I hear a lot of things (from the coaches) that are going on, and everbody always wants to know what's happening Floyd plans on graduating at the end of the spring semester, and from there he plans on pursu- ing his master's degree in sports administration. He wants to serve as a graduate assistant while working towards his master's, which he ultimately hopes will lead him to a full-time coaching position. One perspective Floyd was never exposed to during his play, ing days when he was named the outstanding offensive player his Jr. year, was playing defense - but now Emory said lie's learning i:hat as well. "He's been tea. defense to some of the kid- are here for foot t a Emory said, "and he's been d a good job because he's great with kids Although Emory feels the ? dent coaching program is beneficial to all those who take part in it, the National Collet Athletic Association does not sup- port the idea, and Emory feels they are close to placing unreasonable restrictions on the program. According to the head coach, "The NCAA is a policy- making organization that doe have the player's best interest in mind It would be unfortunate if the NCAA did away with the studen coaching program, because accor ding to Emory, it's people like John Floyd that will one day make a "darn good college foot- ball coach Last yew's starting center John Floyd (?0) has wanted to be a coach chance by taking part to the ECU student coaching program.

Three women's events (including the marathon) have been added in track and field, one in swimming and one in canoeing. Professional athletes will be allowed to compete in soccer and tennis. In addition, basketball players who have signed pro con- tracts can compete if they have not accepted money or played in pro games. Track and field athletes remain eligible despite hundreds of thousands of dollars in earnings channeled through trust funds. Carl Lewis, one of those trackmen, earns close to $1 million a year, and that figure will rocket if he wins four gold medals, as anticipated. Lewis is success in its campaign to hide its homeless from the view of its Olympic guests. City fathers have deployed a posse of 30 police officers mounted on horses into the downtown area and Skid Row to reinforce other lawmen there but hundreds of street people still roam central Los Angeles. "We're trying to sanitize the area Police Capt. Billy Wedgeworth told the Los Angeles Times. Despite intensified law enforce- ment, the usual hundreds of homeless were lined up for Sun- ly lunch outside the Union Rescue Mission on Main Street. The mission, one of the ation's oldest shelters for omeless men, is only one block from City Hall, a posh shopping enter and the New Otani Hotel, ch already is filled with Olym- ic guests and media represen- tatives here to cover the games.

By MELANIE PHILLIPS Suff Editor Are you tired of fetching frisbees? Bored with hackeysack? Not too fond of flying kites? Boomerang flying can be a great alternative for those lazy summer afternoons in Greenville. The boomerang is probably a descendant of the non-returning killer stick found in Australia and many other parts of the world. Returning boomerangs dating more than 10,000 years old have been found in an Australian swamp. The aborigines of Australia used the returning boomerang for sport, ceremony and for utilitarian purposes such as knocking water birds out of the air. Just exactly how and why a 'rang returns is a question for aerodynamisists. All you need to know is that if thrown with an adequate spin, the 'rang will sail forward and fly in an oblong path back to the launching spot. But getting a 'rang back to you is not as easy as it looks or sounds. 'Rangs come in right-handed and left-handed models. Believe it or not, it is virtually impossible for a lefty to toss a right-handed 'rang and vice versa. The best 'rangs are made of strong plywood, fine tuned for flight by sanding and varnishing. Not only- are 'rangs made in the classic two- arm shape, but ihey can have three, four, or six arms or be fashioned in the shape of almost all the letters of the alphabet. Rus- ty Harding, of Vero Beach, Fla makes 'rangs in the shape of a tomahawk. To throw a 'rang you need to choose a softball-sized grassy field with no obstacles. A calm day is best, with little to no wind. Hold the flat side of the 'rang toward your palm, away from you, and the curved side toward you. It should be held with the thumb and the first and second fingers about two inches from the tip. Throw it vertically (never sideways, like a frisbee) straight in front of you, as you would a soft- ball. With enough snap action in Tennis Offers Many Rewards are By ERNEST ROBERTS Editor Are you a participant or an observer? Do you tackle a sport or cheer on the sidelines? Let's face it, most Americans cheerleaders. You do not have to be a cheerleader, standing on the sidelines drinking a beer and just matching. You can actively engage in sports and enjoy it. And most people could and should use some form of exercise. Well, here's the solution. It's ennis. Tennis is a sport for those who like to receive rewards for heir actions. Tennis progresses ith the player. You can set a goal for yourself and achieve it. But the key words are practice and determination. Beginners who devote all their allotted time to practicing forehands, backhands, serves and volleys will not be beginners for very long. Choose a racket that feels good and you like. Choose light, loose clothes to wear while practicing and playing. Take little hops and jumps after every shot and keep your heels off the ground. A player can get a much quicker start if he or she is not flatfooted, so lightly move and bounce in place. Balance is important. Keep the head and upper body aligned with the feet. Do not lean the head and upper body over the feet. Drill to improve the footwork. Skipping rope is a definite aid to better mobility. Other on-court drills that stimulate play are beneficial. And sprints are not a bad idea. Sprint from baseline to baseline until you have gone around the court three or four times. Move into position immediately after you hit a shot. Do not wait until the shot bounces on the other side of the net. One shot should flow into another so don't start, stop, and start again. Keep moving. Work on quickness. With some hard work the beginner can get quicker. Stay alert at all times. Playing someone better than yourself is the basic key to im- provement. So stop cheering and observing sports. Put on your shorts, grab a racket and get on the court. It's game time! Local Restaurants Reflect Diverse Cultures, Cuisines Bv DEANYA LATTIMORE-COBB Staff Editor The population of Greenville is a hodgepodge of different cultures and personalites, each unique and individual. Greenville's restaurants are also unique, representing a wide range of cultures and countries. The most popular foreign food seems to be Chinese, with four restaurants in Greenville. The Golden Dragon on Highway 11 at Carolina East Con- venient Center has been open since 1973. It has a casual family atmosphere and specializes in Cantonese cooking, with their Lobster Cantonese and Steak Kew. The recently opened Hawaii Fountain has a slightly more for- mal atmosphere, and emphasizes their Hunan Shrimp. Polynesian cocktails and dinners are also available. The Hawaii Fountain is located at 2217 Memorial Drive. The Peking Palace, also a fami- ly restaurant, has been open since 1979 and is in the Greenville Square Shopping Center on the Highway 264 bypass. They allow reservations for large parties and recommend their Peking Duck. They have other Peking, Szechuan, and American cuisine, however, as well as Polynesian mixed beverages. Szechuan Garden, since 1981, specializes in the Szechuan style, with their Szechuan Beef and Kang Pao Chicken, but also has other styles available. Szechuan Garden is at 100 E. Tenth St. In the way of French cuisine, Greenville boasts Sweet Caroline's at 740 E. Greenville Blvd whose menu reflects a French Continental style usually seen in New Orleans. Sweet Caroline's has an intimate at- mosphere and serves such dishes as Coq au Vin and Beef Bordelaise, as well as old favorites such as Escargot. Greek food has been a steady attraction in Greenville with the Marathon, which has a casual, college student atmosphere. They serve Souvlakia, Gyros, and Athe- nian Style Chicken as well as American sandwiches. The Marathon is at 560 Evans St. The Villa Roma at 2713 E. 10th St. with its Italian menu serves a "true" pizza, and one of their most popular items, the pizza sub. The Villa Roma has an intimate atmosphere also suited to families, and any style of dress is welcome, from casual to dressy. Finally, Mexican food has always been a favorite of college students. Taco Bell at 319 E. Greenville Blvd. has a fast-food style, with many items a cross bet- ween American and Mexican foods: Taco Salad and the Nacho Bell Grande are two examples. Chico's has a more strictly Mexican menu with their items such as the Chimichanga, and a casual family atmosphere. Chico's has been open since 1983 and is located on 521 Cotanche St. in the Georgetown Shops. Although Greenville will always have room for hamburgers and french fries, these foreign spices add variety to life. FRIDAY ROADTRIPS Beach Beckons Academic Burnouts the wrist, the launch should cause the 'rang to fly out and back toward you. There are many variations on flying, like into the wind, with your back to the wind, etc but the best method for beginners is to launch the 'rang about 45? away from the wind. If you become good enough to actually get the 'rang to come back to you, catch it horizontally. In other words, sandwich it between your palms. Catching it with one hand, or by the tips can be damaging to fingers. The 'rang can be thrown with the free end pointing forward (Australian style) or with the free end pointing backward (.American style). Boomerang throwers, however little known, have accomplished some amazing feats. Ben Loveland, of Victoria, Australia, became Australia's 1982 national junior champion in accuracy. He was 2 years, 5 months old at the time. Barney Ruhe of New Your City, launched a boomerang and on its return permitted it to slice Continued on page 2 By RON CARREA Photo-An Editor For those of us lucky enough to be in summer school, Friday seems to be the perfect chance to hop into the car and head out for the beaches. "If we leave at 8 a.m we should make it by 10 seems to be one of the popular phrases of those burn- ed out by summer school. With Atlantic Beach right around the corner, summer school students are tempted to load up the cooler and hit the road. Walking down the oceanside you can see plenty of familiar faces.Friends rub on suntan oil and turn up their huggers.That ever popular ECU logo can be seen on many shirts proving that we are well represented at the coast in the summer. But summer terms only have five weeks of classes and our teachers continue to hit us with Friday's pop test, which always counts against us. With no make up date, are students still willing to gamble Friday's Roadtrip against Friday's pop test? Kevin Jarrett, a senior in Phy- sical Education saysgood phy- sical health is important for good mental health, so going to the beach is a After all, don't count as much tests Allison Van Strien, a sopho- more in Cloth- ing and Tex- tiles says, "Hey. it's sum- mer.

Tiger, Joyce, and Jay, all sum- mer school students, think a road- trip to the beach is a good way to relax even though you take the chance of missing a pop quiz. Sandy Davis, a junior in Educa- tion, saysT usually leave for "he beach right after class on Fridays. But sometimes I risk it and go on Thursday night, praying that we don't have a pop test So next time you decide to leave early for the beach and skip Fri- day's eight o'clock class, don't be surprised if you reurn and find out you missed Friday's pop quiz. It barrels down to The Big Choice: the GPA or the suntan. It's just a matter of priorities.

Cure for Summer School Blues Lies Just Around the Corner By SHARON COUSAR Aafeameiit Editor It was 7 a.m. when my alarm clock buzzed. I lay in bed for a couple of seconds and suddenly jumped out and lumpishiy walked, to the bathroom. I felt as if I were still asleep until the warm sensa- tion of a shower made me explore the possibility that maybe the day wouldn't be so bad after all. Finally, I was dressed and all set for my first day in summer school. I asked myself why out of all my college years had I waited until my last one to attend sum- mer school? Well, the answer was easy. I knew that I usually spent most of my summer vacations working and saving money for the following school year. I've always liked to have a little reassurance in my purse; besides I had to look out for my educational and per- sonal expenses. I don't like to hit the folks on a regular basis even though they say I do. What the heck, my 8 a.m. class was finally over I couldn't believe I had survived a hour and a half, of Developmental Psychology. I immediately rushed over to the Croatan and grabbed myself some hot tea. I always needed caffeine in my system when I had to face the people in the music building because they are so energetic dur- ing the morning hours. I had work-study there. My supervisor told me to bring my books along with me because I could study if there wasn't anything to do. You're right. Very seldom did she run out of things for me to do. Time really flies when you're busy, I thought. Finally, it was the last class of the school day and I was relieved, along with all my other classmates who were being dragged through the mud of Spanish II's boot camp. We had a hard core drill in- structor who flagged everyone at a reasonable time so they could drop the course without a grade penalty. I thought that was very considerate of him even though very few, if any of us, were there by choice. We had been drafted by University policy to have a foreign language. I realized that Spanish could help me but I only needed to know a few terms and expressions. Shucks, I could sur- vive in any Spanish speaking country with the basic words; you know, words that would mean thank-you, money, help and send help. First session had come to an end and I didn't have a chance to go to the Elbo but once. Second session started off slower than a turtle race and who was it that said "Greenville has it all?" Maybe it's me suffering from summer school blues. This is the first time I've ever gotten it but the symptoms are pretty ob- vious. Do you feel bunrnd out, ripped apart or do you just feel sick from being in Greenville all summer? Well, these are sure symptoms of what I call summer school blues. However, there is a solution for such a problem. No, its not R-O- L-A-I-D-S. Gee I wrote the solu- tion down in Spanish and I've forgotten what it was but if you don't feel well after a good night's sleep and the problem still prevails, just take two aspirin and call me July 27.

Luckily there were crickets hop- ping about near by-no time to lose. I tied one to a hook and dropped it in the water. Time passed and passed. I was due to be at work very soon and could waste no more time. It wasn't my day woods I hesitated to assure i directions. The heat and sun rays were squeezing the breath from my lungs. I quickly reorganized the basket and pole to fit one hand so I could have one hand free to protect my face from tree limbs and small riving insects. I finally entered the forest. It was immediately cool and pleasantly moist. That was a blessing since'I had at least a mile to go before I reached the secret pond. The trip took very little time and when I was almost there I spotted an apple tree heavy with ripe apples. They looked delightful and I thought I might like one. I stared from the bottom Frisbee Later I learned that flying fish of that sort will eat only during early morning and late afternoon. I was still teased by the fish as they glided across the pond.

Unless you crave cold mountain glens and back wood . hollows, your car probably points its bumper toward the beach whenever it knows that you have a couple of free days. All that sun and fun is a perfect diversion from summer school and tedious jobs. However, the beach can create grave problems for females like me-the surfing widow. Since my hometown is a mere three miles from the ocean, I've spent months of lying alone in the sand wishing Honeypie was lounging around with me. In- stead, he is paddling around "out there" waiting for a wave. I have endured the "let's check out the waves before I take you home" torture on many weekend nights. I've watched him pout when the wind shifted, made the waves choppy, and rendered them unrideable. I finally got curious. I hitched up my bathing suit, bor- rowed one of Sweetykin's old surfboards and decided that my days of lazing around the sand were over. It looks easy. You wade out in the breakers about waist deep, lie on the board, and paddle out beyond the breaking waves. Then you turn around and ride them back again, only this time stan- ding up. What I didn't realize is that a surfboard can float a ton of lead bricks. Each time a wave at- tacked I would go under but the board wouldn't. And North Carolina ordinances make it worse; every surfer must be at- tached to his board by an ankle leash. I struggled and paddled and toppled off the board again and again, while Babycakes was casually floating in the swells beyond me. The waves washed over me and I would go under furiously, ducking under .ci waves, just as my darling had shown me. Suddenly I was there- beyond the breakers. But two feet, over my head a swell was topping! off, grinning white foam at its vic- tim. I let the board go and dived under the monster Again I was dragged under, then dragged up, then dragged under again. I, screamed at bumpkins that I wasj drowning.

After a long, dark winter the first sign of spring is when I notice my beautiful herbs coming to life in my little garden. I rush outside in a burst of furious energy, preparing the bed for the summer sun. I pull out weeds, divide the herbs to give them room to grow, and as the leaves bruise to my touch, I get a heady whiff of these most elegant of earth bound creatures.
