Presi dent Reagan asked Monday to address the House on the eve o its vote on his request for aid to Nicaraguan contras, but House Speaker Thomas P. "Tip" O'Neill Jr. turned him dour saying it would be unprecedented for the president to lobbv one c chamber on a pei O'Neill. D-Mass -aid he had ottered Reagan, a Republican, the traditional forum or a joint session of the House and Senate or an opportunity to appear before the House "to participate in open dialogue" with the members. White House spokesman Lawrence M. Speakes said Reagan was "deeply disap- pointed" that he would not be ac- corded :he opportunity to make a final appeal for his S100 million aid package, scheduled fot a House vote Wednesday. The ISbacked contras are lighting to overthrow the San- dinista goernment in Nicaragua. Speakes said White House chief of staff Donald T. Regan had called O'Neill Monda after- noon to ask if Reagan might deliver a speech to the chamber today before leaving for a political fund-raiser in Las Vegas and a week's vacation at his California ranch. The White House proposal, which Speakes said Reagan ap- proved during a lunch with his staff, caught the speaker's office off guard and sent aides scrambl- ing to put together a statement explaining O'Neill's action, seek- See REAGAN'S Page 5 By MIKE IXUWICK News Kditor The University of North Carolina Association of Student Governments kicked off their lobbying campaign last Wendes- day against Governor Martin's proposal tuition increases Governor Martin proposes to increase in-state tuition 3.2 per- cent and hike out-of-state tuition 12.3 percent. The UNCASG wants both in- state and out-of-state tui'ion to remain at 1985-86 levels. Steve Cunanan, SGA president who represented ECU in the UN- CASG, said Martin wants to take the revenue earned in the tuition hike and put it in the General Fund. L NCASG's position, accor- ding to Cunanan, is to place any revenues from any increases back into the University system. "If Martin does that (put revenues in the General Fund) Cunanan said, "we will never see that money again Cunanan reiterated, "If there has to be an increase, the leas- Martin could do is give the money back to the schools The UNCASG passed a resolu- tion outlining their reasons for opposing Martin's tuition in- crease. The resolution said that because the Gramm-Rudman Hollings Acl will reduce financial aid to student- h 16.5 mil dollars, the UNCASG claims the cost of a public post secondary educaton is past the ability of a working class family to pay. In addition, the UNCASG maintains the cost of non-tuition expenses like housing, books, and food has increased faster than inflation. "We (the student body presidents) don't think the lawmakers understand what goes into an education today Cunanan said. "They don't realize that just this year rent has increased 33 percent In their lobbying effort, the UNCASG met with It. Governor Bob Jordan and House Speaker Liston Ramses and about 100 state legislators Cunanan said, "They sym- pathized with us about the in- state tuition, but they were not too positive about the out-of- state increase Cunanan said this dicotomv is unfortunate bu: to be expected. He said out-of-state and interna- tional students add much to ; lege life and to lose some because they are unable to afford tuition would be regretable.

SGA Cabinet Positions Reactivated ByRl'STA HARRINGTON Staff Writer Beginning next -emester, the SGA will be re-activating it's cabinet positions for the first time in about four years, accor- ding to SGA president Steve Cunanan. Cunanan believes this move w ill make good his campaign pro- mise to get more people involved in student government, as well as help the SGA executive council make "better decisions, based on fact, not on their own beliefs "The purpose of this re- activated body will be to advise both the SGA senate and the ex- ecutive council on issues said Cunanan. who adds the legwork done by the cabinet members will help in a more qualitative deci- sion making process. The cabinet itself will consist of six cabinet members, each con- centrating on a specific area of interest. Those areas consist of: Academic Affairs, Community Affairs, Minority Affairs, Inter- nal Affairs, Consumer Affairs, and Publicity. Cunanan said the cabinet is basically designed on the framework of the previous cabinet system, but with a few changes. Heading the new cabinet wiil be the SGA vice-president, whereas under the old system, it was headed by the president. Cunanan believes the old system was basically a good system, but with the increased red tape and "political appointments the system had to be discontinued. Under the new cabinet system, Cunanan wishes to incorporate the SGA into more aspects of stu- Math, Science Careers Minorities Encouraged By BETH WHICKER Assistant News Editor A program designed to en- courage interest in Science and Math careers among women and minorities began Sunday here at ECU. Mary Ann Rose initiated the first Science Track Enhance- ment Program (STEP). Rose is the assistant to the Chancellor for special projects. Twenty-five ninth graders were selected for the program which continues until July 3rd. The students were selected from RECAST, a community- based group which focuses on en- couraging minority youths to pursue careers in science and math. Advisors from the On The Inside Announcements Classifieds10 Editorials4 Features Sports? Inferiors revolt in order that they may be equals, and equals that they may be superior. Such is the state of mind which creates revolutions. ?Aristotle RECAST club in Greenville were asked to reccommend applicants for the program. Students participating in the program will be placed under the guidance of an ECU faculty or staff member with whom they will assist with various science and math projects. Six to seven hours of the stu- dent's day will be spent with faculty projects. In return, they will receive a small stipend for their efforts. ECU's faculty and staff will act as "mentors" for the selected students. "A caring and inspiring individual can often make the difference between pursuing or abandoning a career choice said Rose. "When mentors adopt students for the two week period, we believe that there is greater likelihood of their pursuing science and mathematics careers she added. According to Christine Fitch, director of STEP and grants of- ficer for the ECU School of Education, "One thing that's dif- ferent about this program is that we're not looking for gifted and talented students; we're looking for the average student who has potential "STEP will introduce students to science careers, the world of work, and aim at raising their aspirations for college by ex- posure to a university setting she said. Fitch explained that selected students will experience the prac- tical side of the jobs and learn that jobs are not just glamour. "They'll be exposed to the nuts and bolts of the field of science Students participating in the program enjoy the challenge of working with special projects as well as the atmosphere of ECU's campus. Evenings are set aside for seminars including topics such as career choices, job expectations, job performance and behavior, and money management. According to Fitch the seminars will be lightly struc- tured, yet educational. The students wiil get a chance to share their reactions with the other par- ticipants since everybody will be working in a different area. The program is offered through funding from ECU and outside donations. There is no cost for the students to attend the program. "Our intentions are to con- tinue and expand the program added Fitch. dent life, which includes both the campus and the community "It will allow for more student input, where before we just couldn't get somebody to these functions where the students could voice themselves said Cunanan. "The cabinet will have no powers outside of its advisory and fact finding functions said Cunanan, "but will hopefully make more information available to the senate, enabling them to make better decisions The SGA has already received about 30 applications for the cabinet positions, and Cunanan hopes to work from a field of about 60 applicants. The deadline for filing an application will be September 15, 1986, and ap- plicants will then be interviewed and selected.

Attorney General Edwin Meese and In- terior Minister Oscar Luigi Scalfaro signed an agreement to- day for Italy and the United States to join forces in the fight against international terrorism. Meese said the accord provides for "policy, procedure and doc- trinal exchanges" of information and intelligence and will make ex- tradition easier between the two countries in terrorist cases. But, he said, it does not pro- vide for any form of joint in- tervention. The agreement comes eight months after U.S. Italian rela- tions were strained when Italy freed Mohammed Abu Abbas, who is on trial for masterminding the hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship. The signing came at the end of a two-day meeting of the Joint Italian-American Working Group to Combat Narcotics Trafficking and Organized Crime, which now will cover ter- rorism as well. FBI Director William Webster, who accompanied Meese to the meeting, will head a subgroup on terrorism jointly with Antonio Lattarulo, Scalfaro's chief of Cabinet. Meese told a news conference in the Viminale Palace, which houses the Interior Ministry, that there is a clear link between nar- cotics trafficking and terrorism. "We have found instances where terrorists have used nar- cotics as a means of financing their efforts and instances where narcotics traffickers have used terrorist tactics to protect their activities from government in- tervention The attorney general said. In answer to a question, both Scalfaro and Meese said there is concrete proof that Syria is in- volved in international terrorism but declined to give any details. "Without doubt, magistrates have taken concrete evidence that one of the sources of terrorism is also Syria Scalfaro said. He said that at a meeting of Euro- pean community interior ministers in the Hague Britain "indicated Syria is a definite source of terrorism and the data was confirmed on my last trip to Egypt Meese said the United States has the same information. The Italian-U.S. Committee for the Fight Against Drugs and Organized Crime meets twice a year to review progress under a 1983 agreement calling for closer exchanges of information and greater flexibility in extradition.

An armed robber held five hostages for 13 hours in a lux- urious Rodeo Drive jewelry store in a tense drama that ended with the deaths of three captives and the arrest of the suspect.

Two more hostages were found dead in the building, ap- parently slain "execution style during the daylong seigc, Hunt said.

Not a year goes by without some one, in this case Governor Jim Martin, propos- ing a tuition increase for the UNC system. Last year, regardless of the fact that out-of-state tuition for UNC students was above the regional average, the state legislature decid- ed to raise tuition for out-of-state students about 9 percent. This year Martin proposes to increase in-state tuition 3.2 percent and out-of-state tuition an incredible 12.3 percent. Think about it. That would in- crease out-of-state tuition a total of 21.3 percent in only two years. If this keeps up, we could see a signifi- cant decline in out-of-state enroll- ment in the future. Granted, the increase isn't great enough (about $200 per semester) to initiate a mass exodus of out-of- state students from the UNC system, but if this becomes a trend, it will make out-of-state students think twice about coming to North Carolina in the first place. If these types of tuition increases do have an effect on out-of-state enrollment, it will be very unfor- tunate. The blend of in-state and out-of-state students has become a very important part of our college experience. It offers an education that can't be found in any text book. What makes this tuition hike especially intolerable is what they plan to do with the money. Martin proposes to take the revenue col- lected from the increases and place it in a General Fund. The state legislature then decides where the money will be spent. Put simply, students will be expected to pay more, but the odds are great that they won't see a cent of it. It sounds wonderful, doesn't it ? Only if your name is Jim Martin. Apparently, the man has forgotten what it's like to be a student work- ing his way through college. Compounding the problem is the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act, which will reduce the amount of financial aid available to students. It's bad enough some students are forced to find new resources to pay for college; now Martin wants to up the bill. Naturally, this ill-conceived pro- posal was designed to help the state of North Carolina. How it's sup- posed to accomplish that we don't know. What it really does is hurt the students. It seems we're getting the short end of the stick once again. If there must be a tuition increase we should raise in-statf and out-of- state equally. It's only fair. Sure, North Carolina residents pay state tax. It's also true that many out-of- state students tend to settle in North Carolina after graduation. Also, while they are here, if only tem- porarily, they help fuel the state's economy. As for this General Fund nonsense, it seems only right that if there is to be an increase the money it generates should go directly back to the UNC system and ultimately the students. Governor Martin's proposed tui- tion increase will hurt students more than it will help. Perhaps if the Governor dusted off his college year book and looked back on the good old days, he'd remember what it was like to be a student and understand. Reviewine The ABM Treaty Where All The Trouble Started ovftugflMcm?

Bui other voices have been heard, urging us to go ahead, and perhaps to use the forward momentum to a all those new missile systems. The president, meanwhile, had of course announced that he would no longer feel bound by the terms o' SALT II, and the reaction to this was as expected from the disarmament lob- by. But the feeling is tha' the events o( 1972 (SALT I and ABM) and 1979 (SALT II) are in flux. It is time to review the ABM treaty, because the context of what happened bears critically on good judgment in the davs ahead. During the period between the Soviets' first atomic bomb (1949) and 1972, the United States was concerned with protecting itself from a nucleat enemy fusillade. The system went under the name of Safeguard, and con- templated complex radat stations, fighter planes and missiles. (iraduallv. this evolved into what was called an anti-ballistic missile program. But by 1972, several factors came together to persuade the Nixon ad- ministration to move in a different direction. One of these was the huge expense of developing the Safeguard program, given the technology of the day. The second factor was the Vietnam War: Congress was being fractious with respect to anything that had to do with the military. Yet another was the spirit of detente. Mr. Nixon had just opened the door to China, and now he was traveling to Moscow to sign a trea- ts designed to cut drastically the inven- tory ol nuclear weapons ? indeed, one sometimes toilets that SAI I s'ands foi eath tha- Strategic rms LimitationI reaty ). rhere as a rosy glow in Washington-Moscow, and there were those who believed that true strategic disarmament was finally under was Accordingly, Mr. Nixon signed not only SAI I I. which spoke of limits in the numbei of launchers, but also the ?BM treaty, (as modified in W4i limited to a single site the use of no more than 100 interceptor missiles.

No ef ort was made to harden our ICBMs or leadership facilities. We have no SAMs, 118 strategic air defense warn- ing radars, and a mere 300 aircraft assigned to defensive purposes.

Israeli Betrayal Of America Shakes Relations The Ne" Republic Prime Minister Shimon Peres is probably right in charging that some highly placed individuals in the U.S. government (and in the media, too, by the way) want to use the espionage of Jonathan Jay Pollard to "foul the atmosphere" of unprecedented cooperation that now exists between Israel and America. There are always such people, including many who are usually indifferent to security breaches. What animates them on this occasion is not hard to figure out. But it would be dangerously self- deluding for Peres to think that only malice motivates the skepticism that has greeted his government's denials that there is more to Israeli spying against the U.S. than this one unauthorized instance. The Israelis insist that Pollard's activities were a unique and "rogue" operation, unacceptable to the authorities. What makes this hard to believe is the way two of the four Israelis implicated in the Pollard case were treated when they returned to Jerusalem. Colonel Aviam Sella, a rising star of the air force, has been promoted to brigadier general and ap- pointed commander of a major air base. Rafael Eitan, a veteran of Israel's highly touted secret service, has been appointed chairman of Israel Chemicals, a lucrative position at the head of one of the country's most important state enter- prises. This is hardly punishment, especially for something as serious as violating the implicit terms of trust that should govern the relations between Israel and its only reliable benefactor and supporter among the nations of the world. The United States deserves more from its ally than the disrespect for our sensibilities and our in- terests expressed in the Israeli government's unwill- ingness to make people pay for their misdeeds. There are always extenuating personal cir- cumstances. Eitan is one of the unsung heroes of Israel's long netherworld war against its ungentlemanly enemies; he was among those who apprehended Eichmann. Such a career, the Israelis will say, should not be undone by one overzealous act ? if it was just one overzealous act. Sella is a brilliant military officer in a country in- ordinately dependent, alas, on its brilliant officers. The cost of retiring him would be enormous. Maybe these considerations explain the almost indiscer- nibly slight rebuke administered to the two of- ficials. But the suspicion lingers that there were other factors, including the possibility that the com- promised principals held the government hostage to their knowledge of other acts of espionage against the United States. This conjecture is no mean-spirited fantasy. Only last month, in the case of two Palestinian terrorists who died after being captured during the hijacking of a bus, the Peres Cabinet was inhibited by just this sort of blackmail from allowing its attorney general to pursue acts of perjury allegedly commit- ted by another security agency. Such damage-control ? rather, such blackmail ? is especially effective if higher-ups were actually what we used to call "witty" ? that is, if they ac- tually knew of the operations about whose very ex- istence they now feign surprise. There is, then, something a bit too worldly-wise, too smart-alecky and wanton, in Jerusalem's of- ficial reactions to these two cases, and also in the case of still another Israeli general implicated in an illegal scheme to funnel American weapons to Iran. Such callousness about law and lawlessness, trustworthiness and treachery, may be endemic even to democracies habituated to living under siege. But that should comfort neither Israel nor its friends. The Pollard case was not even admirable in a technical sense. The spy was a loose-lipped braggart who would be trusted only by people who think themselves too smart or too favored by fate to be found out. It is particularly disheartening that the erosion of official ethics in Israel should come on the Labor Party's watch, although Labor is hardly a free agent in the present power-sharing arrangement. The imminent return of Yitzhak Shamir of the con- servative Likud Party to the prime ministry augurs even worse for these standards. Shamir and some of his Likud colleagues are men without the scruples demanded of democratic leadership. Many of them are thugs. This, they may think, prepares them well for living in the Arab Middle East. But it does not equip them for the deeper kind of alliance with the United States, to which Israelis aspire and which, at their best, they richly deserve. Even in imperfect circumstances, lsiael is a valuable strategic asset of the United States. Both its state of military preparedness and its proven political commitments make Israel in any im- aginable contingency a more certain ally than any I NATO country ? even Margaret Thatcher's United Kingdom. Moreover, the valuable information we get from Israeli intelligence is not rivaled by the fruits of any other intelligence-sharing relationship. V hat the Israelis apparently were after in the Pollard case was not material on our arms or arms control positions vis-a-vis Russia or China. Thev were after information we possessed that might be critically relevant to Israel's security, such as the quantity and quality of Soviet weapons deployed in the Arab confrontation states. But much of this we provide anyway, and everybody knows it. Still, one reason that neither the State Department nor the Pentagon was eager to see a Pollard trial was their reluctance to demonstrate in open court just how much of what we know about the Arabs is also now known by the Israelis. Of course, we also probably spy on the Israelis. This raises the question as to why they're not entid- ed to do in the U.S. what we presumably do in Israel. The answer is that the relationship is in no way symmetrical. Our ties to Israel are based on conviction and preference. Israel's ties to us are based on necessity ? rooted philosophical and political affinities not- withstanding, in their objective, desperate needs. The U.S. has been more than understanding and more than supportive of these needs and of Israel's own definition of them. This American support creates certain prerogatives for the U.S. It also creates certain obligations for Israel, and one of these is that it behave with scrupulous honor and honesty to its friend. !? . - - Reagan's Continued l-rom Pa- 1 ing to empL: to accommodate the p without yielding pol tage O'Neill was attending a tournament here, and reo ed a message that the pressd chief of staff wa him.

Reagan's Request For Address Denied Continued From Page 1. ing to emphasize his willingness to accommodate the president without yielding political advan- tage. O'Neill was attending a charity golf tournament here, and receiv- ed a message that the president's chief of staff was trying to reach him. O'Neill spokesman Chris Mathews said the speaker return- ed the call from his car telephone, then called his own staif to work out a statement explaining his ac- tion as he headed for the airport to fly to a Monday evening political event. "Having the president appear before only one House to lobbv for a legislative proposal would be unprecedented O'Neill said in a written statement issued by his office following Speakes' disclosure oi the proposal. "The only justification for such an "orthodox procedure would be if the president would use the oc- casion to participate in open dialogue with members of the body. A formal address should properly be made before a joint session O'Neill said he offered an op- portunity for Reagan to appear before a joint session today, "just as I have done upon every such presidential request "My offer for a joint session remains open he said. "On Wednesday, the House votes on contra aid for the third time this year. If the House passes contra aid in any form, the Senate will have to act on the matter. Since future congressional action must occui in both houses, 1 believe that the proper forum for an ad- dress is the traditional joint ses- sion Asked why Reagan would not accept O'Neill's offer to have the president appeal before both houses of Congress at the same time, Speakes said: "The Senate is occupied with the tax bill. The House o Representatives is working on it (the contra aid plan), and that's who we want to speak to He said Reagan would send his speech to Capitol Hill today in the form of a written message. "The president is deeply disap- pointed Speakes said, adding that he "would have sought to outline the historical trends in our hemisphere today, which are directed toward democratization and he would have discussed the exceptions to this trend by such countries as Nicaragua. His pur- pose was to also outline what type of negotiated settlement the United States can support in Cen- tral America " White House and congres- sional aides agreed Monday that Reagan still lacks the votes to get the aid program approved. Speakes called it "ver close" but acknowledged, "We're not there yet Two well informed congres- sional aides, who aked not to be identified, predicted the House would approve an alternative proposal by Rep. Dave McCur- dy, D-Okla, to give $30 million in so-called humanitarian aid now and require a second vote after Oct. 1 on Reagan's request for $70 million in military aid. The administration opposes any re- quirement for a second vote, which McCurdy says would allow more time for peace talks in the region. Presidential addresses to a single house of the Congress are extremely rare. Of seven cases cited by the White House, six were before the Senate, and halt those involved treaties, which on- ly the Senate acts upon. A survey of presidential ap- pearances before Congress by Congressional Quarterly shows George Washington delivered his Second Inaugural before the Senate only. Woodrow Wilson made his World War I "Peace Without Victory" address to the Senate, asked that body to ratify the Women'sSuffrage Amend- ment and appealed to the Senate for ratification of the Versailles Treaty. Harry S. Truman ad- dressed the Senate upon submis- sion of the United Nations Charter. Richard Nixon made separate addresses to the House and Senate on the Vietnam war in 1969. O'Neill's rejection is the latest in a series of frustrations Reagan has been dealt on the contra aid issue. Reagan accused O'Neill of unfair treatment when the speaker refused in the spring to permit a single up-or-down vote on the aid issue, tying it instead to a supplemental appropriations measure that Reagan had promis- ed to veto. The administration fought for another chance, and finally suc- ceeded in getting a vote scheduled for Wednesdav. Robber Apprehended What is stress and depression and what can be done to aoid them?

She received three Em- my awards for her performance in the series and earned a fourth Emmy for her starring role in the CBS series urse. Prior to her success on televi- sion, Miss Learned was an ac- claimed classical stage actress, playing leading roles in The Im- portance of Being F.arnest, Private lives, Tartuffe and L'nder Milkwood among others.

Miss Ray is known by area theatre-goers for her years as the choreographer for the East Carolina Summer Theatre. Ladies in Retirement is a comedy- suspense-thriller about a housekeeper who murders her employer in order to find a home for her lovable, eccentric sisters. Written with a good deal of English wit and humor by Ed- ward Percy and Reginald Denham, the play opened in New York in 1940 and was hailed by t he critics as the hit of the season. It is based on the facts of a famous French crime of the 1880's, shoring up the bare facts with a stagefull of unforgettable characters and suspense and bus- tle dresses from the 1880's. The play is not a "who-dunnit" because the identity of the murderer is apparent even before the crime is committed, but with a delightful blend of horror and humor it does investigate the "why" of the crime. Tickets for Ladies in Retire- ment are selling very fast ? a testament to the drawing power of Miss Learned. According to the theatre's General Manager Scott Parker, "since we announc- ed the cast of stars, we've had a run on tickets. Season tickets have been selling at the rate of 150 per day, and Monday even- ings are already almost sold out Because of the popularity of the season this year, the theatre has added a number of matinee performances for each of the four plays: July 9, 16, 19, 23, 26 and 30. Tickets are still available for most performances of Ladies in Retirement as well as for the following three shows: The Foreigner (July 14-19, Deathtrap (July 21-26) and Greater Tuna (July 28-Aug. 2), and may be reserved by calling in Greenville 757-6390.

Deng's market-oriented economic reforms have sparked a consumer revolution, as neon signs, fashion billboards and millions of small private businesses enliven streets nation- wide. Per capita income has risen 14 percent for the 800 million rural residents and 7 percent for its 200 million urban dwellers since 1980. Savings deposits have quadrupled.

Reggae Arrives Down East By PAT MOLLOV Something new is in the air on the East Coast. Something new. indeed. And it's been a long time coming. The Crystal Coast Reg- gae Splash to be exact. On Sunday, June 29, from 12 to 8 p.m international and regionally acclaimed reggae bands will be filling the skies over Carolina with a fun Jamaican beat. The concert will be held at the Crystal Coast Amphitheatre near Swansboro. The rain date is July 13. Among the performing artists for the festival will be Ichelle Cole and The Striker's Posse, a band formed in 1985 consisting of members from all over the United States, as well as the Caribbean. This group performs their own music, and has the potential to become one of the forerunners in reggae music to- day. The Awareness Art Ensemble will be contributing to the festival. This group consists of six Rastafarians who purvey their message against the rule of apar- theid through their music ? hence the word "Awareness Also performing will be Green- ville's own Amateurs, a band that has continually entertained local audiences with the swaying sounds of their reggaerock. "Shep the lead singer for the amateurs, has played an in- strumental role in the organiza- tion of this event. "It's time the people of North Carolina were exposed to reggae he said. "Minds have been closed too long. It's time to hear our message. And it's a great time Tickets for the Crystal Coast Reggae Splash are available at Apple Records.

Macchio And Morita Return For Ultimate Confrontation Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita star in 'Karate Kid Part II now playing In Greenville. ByEDTOSHACH Hot on the heels of Poltergeist II, The Karate Kid Part II is here both to entertain us and to re- mind us that for every hit movie, a sequel awaits. The Karate Kid Part II takes up where the original ended ? with Daniel (Ralph Macchio) showering after his tournament victory. It's a good thing, too, because this allows for something some of us have been waiting two years for: a parking lot confron- tation between Daniel's mentor S Miyagi (Noriyuki "Pat" Morita) and the teacher of Daniel's tormenters. Without giving away too much it was worth the wait. Soon, Miyagi receives word of this father's poor health and goes home to Okinawa to settle af- fairs. Daniel, wanting to help Miyagi through a difficult time, accompanys him. Miyagi's arrival in Okinawa re- ignites an old dispute with his formr best friend, and he soon finds himself challenged to a fight to the death. Daniel, mean- while is persecuted by the most proficient student of Miyagi's rival, and the stage is set for an ultimate confrontation. Unlike many sequels, there's a lot of good that can be said about The Karate Kid Part II. Just as in the original, Noriyuki "Pat" Morita is ex- cellent as Miyagi. In this role, Morita is sometimes profound and sometimes comical, jux- taposing the traditional aspects of Miyagi's heritage and his ex- posure to American culture to in- fuse Miyagi with just the right comic touch. For his perfor- mance in The Karate Kid, Morita was nominated for an Academy Award, and in this sequel, he is equally memorable. Ralph Macchio also has done a good job breathing new life into the role of Daniel, and the chemistry between he and Morita has lost nothing. Another plus for this movie is the believability of the fight scenes. Sound effects, although enhanced somewhat, are not overwhelming. When people are hurt in Karate Kid II, they cry out much as people in actual fights do. Also, director John G. Avildscn resisted the urge to make the movie one long fight scene and instead, with writer Robert Mark Kamen, has made a movie about honor and courage. Despite its favorable points. The Karate Kid Part II does have a few problems. Throughout the movie, actors who obviously speak English quite well attempt to deliver lines with the same characteristic broken English that Miyagi speaks. Although Morita pulls off these lines quite well, several of the other actors do not, and they sound affected. Another slight drawback to the film is its length. Although the climax requires some setting up, the movie sometimes drifts dangerously near overkill. Ponderous would be too strong a word, but it can surely be said that a judicious cut here and there wouldn't hurt a bit. That said, however, Tht Karate Kid Part II is ultimately an enjoyable film. The photography is often beautiful, and the treatment of Okinawan tradition is interesting without being ethnocentric. And the final showdown between Daniel and his antagonist easily justifies a m- quel. f JUMn AM ? . ? f FORM AD H I t V I . It (' if X ian-O-Stick n-O-Stick . . -? .o ?j '?iH 11B ? 1 pv.

People who know Batman only through the old TV show will be surprised by Miller's Dark Knight. While the TV series was campy and often ludicrous, Bat- man: The Dark Knight is nothing if not serious. Miller's Batman of the future is somber, obsessive, and sometimes downright mean. Instead of kooky old villians like the Penguin, he now fights abominable young murderers with razor-sharp batterangs and a high-tech tank-like vehicle that Robin once called the Batmobile Robin, by the way, is long dead in this future story, and the new Robin is a girl.

They said tiie author had obtained per- mission to reside in Geneva. He was a small man. stooped, frail, white-haired and blind. His soft smile and sightless gaze masked the intricate mind of an author whose short stories are filled with riddles and metaphysical humor. He was philosophical about his blindness.

IM) PagcH Bias Death Mishandled Hardy speaks out By Nation's Media What happened last Tiursdaj on the University of Maryland cam- pus was purely tragic. However, what may be even more tragic is the way the that the media has pounced on the drug issue surrounding Len Bias' death. Although cocaine intoxication has been named as the cause of death, prior to yesterday there was no proof of the cause of death ? only speculation. Prince George Count) state attorney Arthur Mar- shall admitted thai he didn't know what caused Bias' untimely death and didn't know il cocaine was a contributing factor. If this was the case, then why did the media stand so sternly to the belief that drug use caused this death? Tins type of hypothetical jour- nalism is usually confined to the grocery-store tabloids like The Na- tional Enquirer. The loss of a talent as greal as Bias is bad enough, why try to damage the memories And the reputation of an already grieving family and friends b printing innuendos that had no basis in fact. Due to the circumstances surrounding the death, players and friends are now being dragged into the affair. Marshall has said that he will ask Maryland basketball coacl Charles "Lefty" Driesell, several basketball plavers and other students and friends of Bias to answer questions from a grand iur about drug sales on the school's campus. Does it take a death of a talented athlete to get authorities concern- ed about drug use' V e prefei to remember Bias where he was most at home ? on the basketball court. Furthermore, to those who knew him well, he was a respectable individual off the court as well. A person of Bias' immense talents comes along once in a lifetime. The sad thing is that his life was cut short and no matter what the cause. Bias deserves more respect than to be scandalized by the nation's media. Tests performed before the NBA drat: (b the Celtics and Golden State) showed no trace of any drug use. Bias was onl 22 years old and made a fatal mistake. Rather than the media trying to harp on the matter, it should be used to inform societ) on the hazards of drug use rather than to ostracize a wronj After all, we all make mistakes. Maybe we should learn from Len Bias' apparent moment ol weakness.

Jackson Picks Baseball On a more positive note, Heisman trophy winner Bo Jackson turn- ed some heads as he decided to play professional baseball instead of pro football. The Auburn tailback who was drafted as the top pick in the NFL by Tampa Bay signed with the Kansas City Royals. Jackson would have reportedly earned over one million a year with Tampa, but 'went with his heart' in choosing to play major league baseball. Jackson is the first top-draft since 1979 to shun the NFL when Ohio State's Tom Cousineau jumped to the Canadian Football League. Jackson is also the fourth consecutive Heisman winner to split from the NFL. Mike Rozier in '83, Herschel Walker in '84 and Doug Flutie in '85 all went to the L'SFL. However, although Jackson was offered bundles to play pro foot- ball, he opted to be where he felt comfortable and would be happiest. In turn, he followed his emotions, not his wallet. On the subject of baseball, we see quite a turn as their seems to be a different balance of power. In the National League West, for instance, the once hapless San Francisco Giants are in first place while in the American League West, perennial patsy Texas is in front of California and last year's cham- pion K.C. Royals. The surprisingly powerful Boston Red Sox lead the American League East as the ever-present N.Y. Mets rule the Big Apple as weli as all of baseball. The key to the Mets success has been starting pitching as Ron Darl- ing, Bob Ojeda, Sid Fernandez and Dwight Goode" all have won eight games. However, that's not the surprise! The biggest surprise is the fact that St. Louis, the defending Na- tional League champion, is near the bottom of the division and play- ing below .500 baseball. To show how much the balance of power has changed, on the mdrn- ing of Friday the 13th to make matters worse, the four last-place managers were Sparky Anderson, Dick Williams, Pete Rose and Whitey Herzog ? who have 18 World Series rings between them. Former Teammate Remembers Bias By JANET SIMPSON ?iporti Writer People like him don't come along very often. He was to Maryland fans what Michael Jordan was to Carolina followers, totally captivating on the court, and charming when off. "I just couldn't believe it said Scott Hardy about Len Bias' death. "I'm still hurt, I really am Hardy and Bias were team- mates in high school. They at- tended Northwestern High School in Hyattsville, Md and were very good friends. "We played together in high school stated Hardy. "We were close and we kept in touch Bias was able to dazzle peo- ple no matter where he went. Everyone who knew him, or just knew of him was caught up in his invisible yet magical spell. "Len could affect peo- ple who didn't even know him commented Hardy. "Keith Sledge had never even met the guy. but when he told me about his death, he had tears in his eyes. That was just the affect he had on people His sophomore season at Maryland was the year Hardy felt Bias came into his own. "His sophomore year he really showed signs of brilliance remembers Hardy. "He show- ed me and everybody else mat this kid was going to be a player. He showed the people in this nation that Len Bias was ready to step forward and accept 'superstar' status. "He did (gain 'superstar status') because his junior year he came back loaded with con- fidence Hardy added, "and his junior and senior years just speak for themselves Speak they do. Not only did Bias play very well, he also had conference player-of-the- year honors bestowed on him twice. For two seasons he just seemed to dominate the league "He dominated the ACC stated Hardy. "In fact he was the AC C. Bias did things his senior sear that even surprised it. However, when they went to college it showed who was the better player Another ECU basketball player Gus Hill, who played against Bias in high school, seemed really impressed by him. "I really didn't know him too well as a person Hill said. "The one time I played against him I was a freshman in high school. He was very impressive as a basketball player, and he definitely seem- ed like a good person Hill added. "Bias, with all that "Everybody who knows himknows Len Bias was a decent young man It would be a shame for all the accomplishments he made in his life to just be played down by the media if there was a drug involvement ?Scott Hardy me. During his senior season in high school. Bias was over- shadowed by some other big- ger named players; however, when he pulled that Maryland jerses over his head, all those shadows disappeared. "His senior year he was recruited by everybod. Vet he still didn't get the recognition I think he deserved com- mented Hardy. "That year, 1982, everybody was talking about Billy Thompson. Bias deserved just as much respect as Thompson but he didn't get world of talent didn't show off, he just played Hardy may have been one of Bias' hardest critics even though it may not have seemed that way. "People used to always kid me that they thought 1 gae Bias too much credit stated Hard "Reallv though, 1 never gave Bias enough credit. I didn't give him enough credit. 1 was harder on Bias than anvbodv else was because he was mv friend and because we plaved high school basketball together The implication of drugs in relation to Bias' death -s one subject that really is of interest to Hardy. "Everybody who knows him, or has ever seen him play on television knows Len Bias was a decent young man commented Hardv. "If he was involved with drugs in any way, 1 never knew anything about il. 1 just won't believe it until the reports come out and say it was the cause of him dying ? then that's just something I'll have to accept. However, right now, off rumor and hearsay, I can't accept it. "Bias just had too much , ing for him to risk it all on drugs continued Hardy.

Will Baseballers Continue Success ? B TONY BROWN "??!? Writer Although Arizona won the College World Series just a few weeks ago. and professional baseball is still in its early stages of the season, ECU baseball displayed a fine year, and one that may be hard to repeat. The baseball Pirates are going to have a tough time in the '87 season maintaining the pace of the past three years in that sport. The torrid 106-3 mark notched up over that period was largely achieved due to the efforts of six players who finished their col- legiate careers this past 40-10 year. Three of those departing seniors were the number two through four batters this past season and each hit for better than a .310 average. All together, the six collected 43 of the team's 60 homers in '86, along with over half the doubles ECU hit. Their efforts spurred a large number of all-time single season records for the Pirates, both as a team and individually. Those in- clude runs (361, was 331), hits (475, 462), RBIs (314, 384), doubles (96, 83), homers (60, 53) and total bases (760, 710). One team record ECU would rather forget was a new record for number of errors, the second consecutive year mistakes cost them dearly in post-season play. The biggest loss for ECU, ob- viously is Winfred Johnson, a pitcherfirst basemandesignated hitter who has led the Pirates in many hitting statistics since his arrival in 1983. He has set virtual- ly every offensive individual record for both career and single season hitting and was recently named first team All-America. The most noted of Johnson's stats is the one for homers. He set a season record in '84 with 18, bettered that to 22 last year, put- ting him in first, second and third-place all time. The powerful Johnson had already established a new career mark in homeruns in '85 with 51. His perfomrance this year raised that record to 70, with the time spot behind Johnson's .432 mark the same year. Hardison's strong point was hitting doubles, collecting 43 in three years of play. He trails only Johnson again, but the latter had tour years to do it in. Third base will be another hole to till as Mark Cockrell will be gone He knocked in 31 runs and got 33 hits in '86. including five roundtnppers. Other losses to graduation are leftfielder Mont Carter and utili- ty infielder Robert Langston. Playing in 36 games Carter got 23 hits while walking 25 times, the only Pirate to reach base via walks more than hits. Langston has been a steady defensive stalwart in the infield during his career. Last year he stepped in for an injured Steve Sides to cover second ba.se iie en- tire season. His ability th the glove will be sorely missed next year as E I attempts to cut down on the large number ol er- rors of the past two seasons. With such talent only a recent memory, it seems ECU will be hard-pressed to match the 40-10 vear amassed this year. It remains to be seen if the '8' version can continue to dominate the con- ference as the Pirates have in the pas! few years On the bright side, the perfor- mance of freshman Jake Jacobs on the mound proved to be a pleasant relief this year. He See PETERSON. Page 9 Winfred Johnson second-place record of Butch Davis only 26. Other single-season marks set by Johnson include: most hits (1st and 3rd), total bases (1,2,3), walks3rd), doubles, (1). RBIs (1,2,3), batting average ? 97 AB (1,3) and slugging percentage (1,2). Career highs by him include: hits (234), total bases (493), runs (148), doubles (47) and RBIs (221). The loss of Johnson's bat is not the only aspect of the Pirates' game to suffer with his depar- ture, however. He also proved to be a strong performer on the mound, winding up with a career- record 35 wins. While not often totally over powering his op- ponents, he usually got the job done. The departure of centerfielder Chris Bradberry (.333) and short- stop Greg Hardison (.311) will be hard to overcome as well. Bradberry joined the team as a walk-on in '84, then became a starter part-time that same year and went on to an excellent career at ECU. His .405 average in '85 was good for the number two all- I J ECU head coach Gary Overton hopes his 1987 squad can repeat the success of his '86 campaign. Overton currently sports a 106-37 record.

NC Hopefully, Daniel Boone will be able to overcome an arm in- jury which put him out of action almost the entire season. The ris- ing senior six-footer posted a 5-1 mark in '85 and had been ex- pected to be number two man on the staff this year. With so many positions to fill, it will be harder than usual to predict the line-up for next year, but we'll give it a try The coaches are on the recruiting trail in Greensboro, so the following prognostications are straight from the mind of this writer, using two years of cover- ing the team as an excuse for any foul-ups, bleeps or blunders. I irst base is set with an ex- perienced senior, Mike Sullivan. He anchored that position while lohnson was pitching and also served as a designated hitter. His 314 average will likely make him the clean-up hitter or the number three man. Sieve Sides returns ai second, but he will need to cut down on mistakes, having committed 25 s in '86. His 341 batting average might move him to a number two oi so batting spot He tied tor second among returners tor game-winning RBls with tour. At catcher, veteran Jim Riley, another rising senior will be back and will be expected to continue his solid playing. Hatting .253, he McCrady Named ICl junior Idward "Bern" McCrady has recently been selected to the NC'AS rowing earn which will take place later this month in Raleigh. McCrady, who hails from Greensboro, is a political science majot who has been spending his summer in Greenville while atten- ding school. He hopes to possibiv make the Olympic squad one lay, but limits his hopes to the 'sheer enjoyment of the sport played in every game in '86, but a strong number two man will still somewhat of a question mark. Junior Jay McGraw will be an- choring right field as usual, with some stints as a relief catcher still possible, though hopefully one of the back-up catchers will progress enough to not make that necessary. His 10 homers tied for second this year and is first among players returning. He tied for se- cond with Sullivan in RBls, knocking in 36 runs this year. David Ritchie (.277) will pro- bably take left field. His perfor- mance as a freshman during the early season led to a number of games as a starter. He will likely continue leading off on offense since he had a good on-base percentage with 26 hits and 19 walks. Centerfield will be a true unknown, since Chris Bradberry has played virtually every inning theie for years. Senior Dean Fhehalt is the only other player currently listed as an outfielder, so presumbablv he will move there, although the outfield may be juggled to put a more seasoned player there. F.hehalt led the team with a .412 average, but j)layed in just 15 games and batted only 17 times Third base and shortstop ari real question marks, as the only returning player who had a batting average 4X.)) I tt a peared in only seven games, witl five at-bats. It seems likely that a new should have a good si neol these spots, barring the possibili ty of a current player switi positions. At this time the list oi reel signed for the '87 season ha been released, so it is i known what new players ma- become starters or get a playing time. The prospects of possiblv ting should be a tantalizing lute for head coach Ciaiv Ovei who is now hard at worl find top-notch recruits Witl large turn-over due to gradua continuing next year, it apt. to be a "prune time" prospects.

Charlotte, with a population of about KM),000, is the smallest ol the cities that have applied and is the 32nd largest television market m the country, a factor Shinn ad- mitted will not help his case "It's our biggest single liabili- ty Shinn said about TV market size, an element used b) the NBA in negotiating its network lelevi sion contract. "If we could draw three-quarters of a million people into Charlotte next week, I'm sure we'd be No. 1. But we're try ing to make up for that with other things, lease, facility, etc. "We have over five-million people within 100 miles of Charlotte. And the NBA already has the top-10 markets, which it needs to negotiate its contract. It will make a difference, but 1 don't think it will make a million dollar difference " Shinn said he was pleased with comments b Stern and his staff.

Stern would not estimate Charlotte's chances of receiving a new franchise, or if it would be able to buy an existing one and move it to North Carolina. "Knowing this is being record- ed and could come back to haunt me, right now I don't see any franchises moving Stern said. "We don't have an NBA fran- chise for sale The Utah Ja San Ann Spurs and Los Angeles Clippers have been rumored to be con- sidering relocation. Stern said he has been impress- ed with the applisa' presented so far, but he doesn't know how many or it the owners will approve expansion.
