New budget forces cuts
Air Force to end ECU's ROTC detachment
By CLA PI ANHARDT
Ntaiuging V ditot
Atter 40 years of service to the
campus and the military the ECU
Air Force ROTC program will be
phased out ot existence over the
next 18 months the Air Force said
Wednesday.
The elimination of the program
is part ot a nation-wide effort at
trimming the military budg
552 9billion in 1989. In addition to
the ECU program units at UNC-
Chapel Hill, UNC-Charlotte and
I ayctteville State University have
bee n I Id to disband as members
ol a group ot 30 programs the Air
I -nee has decided to end. The Air
Forcesaid the four state programs
have a total ol 4; students.
Seven other ROTC detach-
ments will be consolidated to help
in the budget-trimming the Air
i i rce said.
The ir Force said the changes
will be gradually phased in over
an 18-month period to allow the
juniors and seniors in the 37 de-
tachments involved to finish their
studies. Underclassmen in those
programs will either have to
transfer, or will be allowed to
leave the program, the Air Force
said.
The Air Force will save approxi-
mately $14 million by restructur-
ing its ROTC program in this
manner. The military organiza-
tion spent $128 million in fiscal
1987 on the ROTC program.
Air Force officials have said
20,000 men must be eliminated

from Air Force personnel to meet
the 1989 budget. By eliminating
these ROTC detachments, the Air
Force will reduce the number of
young people being trained for
active duty as officers. The move
will leave the Air Force with 114
ROTC units nationwide.
"We are disappointed that the
program has been slated for dis-
continuance Chancellor Rich-
ard R. Eakin said Monday. "We
are proceeding to do whatever we
can to see if the program can be
retained
Eakin said the university sent a
telegram to the Air Force express-
ing its dismay over the decision
immediately after it became
known. The administration has
followed that up with a factual
letter, he said, and is looking for
other channels that mihgt be ot
help.
"We will now be in conversa-
tions with a variety of people who
might can help us he said. "We
will kind of play it by ear from
here
Eakin said the relationship be-
tween the university and the Air
Force has been a good one, and
that he does not want to see it end.
"We had one of the first AF-
ROTC programs in the countrv
starting back in 1948 he said. 1 le
noted that ECU has prepared
approximately 900 commis-
sioned officers for militarv duty
over the years.
Eakin said he thinks other uni-
versities besides ECU are also
disturbed by the Air Force's an-
nouncement.
"From some brief contacts I've
had it's clear to me many of the
universities are distressed he
said.

The SGA appropriated ap-
proximately $1,500 to the senior
class council, cut funds to the Air
Force ROTC color guard and
spoke with Athletic Director
Dave Hart in Monday's meeting.
In one of the largest appropria-
tions made this year, the senior
class council was appropriated
$1512 for senior awards and
Force ROTC color guard which
passed in bt week's meeting was
cut to $100 atter the Air Force
announced last week that the Air
Force ROTC program will be can-
celed for the fall semester. The
color guard will use the $100 for
registration fees to competition at
the Azalea Festival in Wilmington
and at the University oi Mary-
land.
Legislator Marty Helms said
Legislator Michael Bartlctt
moved to strike the two line items
for rifles and Hags from the appro-
priation bill. After debate
whether to cut the appropriation
completely, the legislature passed
the $100 amendment.

position on the twelve-member

Changes in policy
By TONI PAGE
Staff Writer
A new campus-wide fire alarm
policy reflects the seriousness and
potential danger involved in the
increasing numbers of false
alarms and vandalism on campus
according to Dean Carolyn
Fulgham of the Department of
Residence Life.
Each time an alarm goes off
(and is reported) public safety has
to check out the complaint and the
building must be evacuated. Not
only does this take time of resi-
dents but may also cost money in
manpower in instances of vandal-
ism, Knox said.

Gov't assault
WASHINGTON, D.C (CPS) ?
The federal government has an-
nounced another "full-scale,
?oast-to-coast assault on dead-
beats who owe money to the
government, including those who
haven't repaid student loans.
Attorney General Edwin
Meese, in announcing "Operation
Deadbeat" Jan. 15, said the federal
government would withhold del-
lquent borrowers' federal tax re-
funds, seize their property and
hire pri vatela wyers to help prose-
cute them.
The program is aimed at collect-
ing the S80 billion in unpaid obli-
gations to the government. About
55.3 billion is held by former stu-
dents who haven't repaid student
loans.
At his press conference, Meese
reported a U.S. attorney in west-
ern Kentucky seized a BMW from
a teacher who had defaulted on a
student loan taken out in 1976.
The Reagan administration, of
course, has for years attempted to
recover unpaid student loans
from defaulters. In November,
Secretary of Education William J.
Bennett threatened to expel col-
leges and trade schools from all
federal student aid programs if
they allow future loan default
rates to exceed 20 percent. In Oc-
tober, President Reagan ap-
proved legislation that allows the
justice Department to hire private
attorneys to litigate defaulted
loans.
In recent years, the Education
Department has also worked with
the Internal Revenue Service to
withhold tax refunds from de-
faulters, reported defaulters to
credit bureaus, hired private col-
lection agencies and garnished
wages.
Four days after the debut of
"Operation Deadbeat a "default
summit" called by Rep. Pat Wil-
liams (D- Mont.) to forge a na-
tional plan to cut the number of
Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL)
defaults ended, with Williams
saying he had enough informa-
tion to write a bill.
College aid directors and edu-
cation associations were repre-
sented at the meeting, which dis-
cussed remedies ranging from
better screening of students want-
ing loans to cutting schools with
high default rates out of the GSL
program.
$500 fine, may result in imprison-
ment.

Ron Speier.
"A lot of students don't realize
the penalty behind the simple act
of pulling a fire alarm. Serious

I have long possessed a deep faith in the power of prayer
and education to bringabout change: change in status, change
in conditions, change in the way people think because
together we can bend the shackles that so easily beset us-as
long as we make strides forward and not backward.
Please build us a real cultural center! Demolish that offen-
sive piece of junk behind the infirmary and show some justice
for black America. If done properly you can succeed in
bringing the black students more pride, the white students a
greater appreciation and the university as a whole a better
understanding of black culture and black history.
Student wonders why Student Store disbands computer sales center
To the editor:
At times it seems the most illogical
things take place within an institution
dedicated to the development of
human learning and logic ? such is
the case with the recent "shake-up" at
our campus bookstore. As of now, we
no longer have access to a computer
department with trained assistance.
That's right where other universi-
ties are pushing to make all their stu-
dents computer literate, our new
bookstore manager has axed three
experienced, full-time employees,
including the computer sales staff.
The computers are being cleared out.
Apparently this new manager is
one of those "efficiency experts" (self-
designated, I'm sure) who is deter-
mined to show his expertise by re-
placing full-time people with lower-
wage, part-time employees. Let's
look at this another way. The fast food
places also hire minimum wage, part-
time help. How many times have you
gotten an order screwed up by one of
the folks at the burger places? If it has
never happened to you, you probably
are a vegetarian. The fast-food places
only have about thirty items on the
menu. The bookstore has thousands
of different items. I rest my case.
In the business world there is a need
to keep an eye on the net profit the
so-called "bottom line It is, how-
ever, possible for a manager to have
his head stuck so far up his "bottom
line" that he can no longer see the
main objective service to the stu-
dents and faculty. Doing away with
the computer department and other
experienced staff positions seems to
be evidence of just such a problem.
I'm going to really miss some of
those people who have helped me
over the past years. Some of those let
go have been there for many years
and have helped thousands of us. I'm
sure their families will miss those jobs
as well.

Biased reporting
To the editor:
The actions of the media in recent
years have troubled me. And in the
past several months, the media have
attracted particular attention to them-
selves.
I am referring not to the pulp publi-
cations that shoulder up to us at gro-
cery checkout lines; I am talking
about those purveyors of public'
news, those guardians of our demo-
cratic right to know what is being
done to us by powers we cannot
touch. They are network news, the
weekly magazines, the daily tabloids:
CBS News, Time, The Washington
Post, and even The East Carolinian.
They are the media sources we count
on for honest, accurate, unbiased
reporting of the facts. If you laugh at
this remark, then welcome; you are as
si eptical (delete "cynical") as I. We
no longer expect the media to present
the bare, unadulterated facts. We
know the "facts" are very much de-
pendent on who's recording them.
We're not so naive as to believe every-
thing we read in the papers or see on
the news. We know better. But that
leaves some of us wondering what
exactly it is that we do know for a fact.
What do we really know about
Bush's involvement in the Iran arms-
for-hostages-and-money deal and
subsequent diversion of monies from
that deal to the Contras? Many of us
can hazard a guess about the former
CIA chief's role, but unless a criminal
investigation were to begin, we don't
really expect Bush to "reveal all" as
Jessica Hahn and others have done.
Student raises campus issues for consideration
There's no profit in it for him Why
blame the media? I haven't, on this
account.
I believe strongly in the freedom of
the press. I also think that this needs
much clarification. I believe the me-
dia have a responsibility to the public
to present the happenings oi the day
as accurately and completely as pos-
sible. I believe that actions by public
officials acting in official capacities
are the domain of such public
scrutiny. The networks and publish-
ers pay good money for thorough
investigative reporting; we ought to
receive it.
The problem is, it seems that these
reporters are being paid to do more
than investigative things which fall
into the public domain. The problem
is, these reporters are presenting syn-
opses of the "facts" and spending a
good deal of energy interpreting the
facts from the biases of the networks

What about the parking problem? It was a prob-
lem five years ago, it is a problem today, and it will
be a problem five years from now. To be honest, I
ride a bike to college so it doesn't affect me in the
least. Now there's the solution, I park my less-than-
turbo-charged two-wheeler right in front of the
building I need to visit. Couldn't ask for a better
parking space. In any case, The East Carolinian
could write until is is blue in the print, but there is no
great solution for the parking problem except for a
deck, which never has gone over very well. Oh well,
grin and bear it.
Condoms in the dorms? Good idea, but as men-
tioned, they are available in the Student Health
Center if needed. Study distribution figures there,
then decide. It would be quite a convenience for the
illegal "sleep-overs" who can't leave until twelve

Rep
publishers, or whomever. The
problem is, we can't possibly di-
gest the amount of information
we would need merely to stay
abreast of present situations. We
need a filter to screen out impor-
tant news and to put into contexts,
both historical and social. We are
hard pressed to make meaning
out of all the complexities. De
mocracy can't work if the repre-
sented are uninformed. It isn't a
democracy if we are misin-
formed. It becomes a mockery if
our leaders are spreading disin-
formation. That's why I believe
strongly in the freedom of the
press.
But how do we gain from a
media that seeks to sensational-
ize? How do we gain from that
misrepresents the facts? How do
we gain from a media that serves
its own ends and fosters profit
rivalry among its own? Who
gains from the disclosure of can-
didates' sexual escapades? The
media. Who gains from the repre-
sention of a covert operation as
the overactive zeal of a tew patri-
otic individuals? The media. Who
gains from a shouting match be-
tweeen the vice president and a
news anchor? The media. People
love drama. The media presents
drama. The people stay tuned.
What does The East Carolinian
have to do with this? We the
people cannot point the finger at a
media that dramatizes or at repre-
sentatives that disinform if we are
going to misrepresent the facts in
our own publications. I am refer-
ring specifically to the Jan. 28 is-
sue featuring a front page article
on Jesse Jackson's campaign
speech in Greenville last week.
The author did not paint a biased
picture; on that account, he did a
good job. He presented the mate-
rial objectively, as a reporter
should. However, the author
misquoted the candidate. He
quoted Jackson as saying, "When

The author failed to put mate-
rial in its complete context. He
wrote of Jackson's "statement of
unity" in which the candidate
used the analogy of a quilt and all
the patches that make up the quilt
This was accurate. But the author
failed to mention that Jackson had
used "patch" as a metaphor for
the limited resources and powers
of the individual. Jackson re-

1 have long possessed a deep faith in the power ot praver
and education to bringabout change: change in status, change
in conditions, change in the way people think because
together we can bend the shackles that so easily beset us - as
long as we make strides forwa-d and not backward.
ricasc build us a rcal cultural center! Demolish that offen-
sive piece of junk behind the infirmary and show some justice
for black America. If done properly you can succeed in
bringing the black students more pride, the white students a
greater appreciation and the university as a whole a better
understanding of black culture and black history.

To the editor:
At times it seems the most illogical
things take place within an institution
dedicated to the development of
human learning and logic ? such is
the case with the recent "shake-up" at
our campus bookstore. As of now, we
no longer have access to a computer
department with trained assistance.
That's right where other universi-
ties are pushing to make all their stu-
dents computer literate, our new
bookstore manager has axed three
experienced, full-time employees,
including the computer sales staff.
The computers are being cleared out.
Apparently this new manager is
one of those "efficiency experts" (self-
designated, I'm sure) who is deter-
mined to show his expertise by re-
placing full-time people with lower-
wage, part-time employees. Let's
look at this another way. The fast food
places also hire minimum wage, part-
time help. How many times have you
gotten an order screwed up by one of
the folks at the burger places? If it has
never happened to you, you probably
are a vegetarian. The fast-food places
only have about thirty items on the
menu. The bookstore has thousands
of different items. I rest my case.
In the business world there is a need
to keep an eye on the net profit the
so-called "bottom line It is, how-
ever, possible for a manager to have
his head stuck so far up his "bottom
line" that he can no longer see the
main objective service to the stu-
dents and faculty. Doing away with
the computer department and other
experienced staff positions seems to
be evidence of just such a problem.
I'm going to really miss some of
those people who have helped me
over the past years. Some of those let
go have been there for many years
and have helped thousands of us. I'm
sure their families will miss those jobs
as well.

Biased reporting
To the editor:
The actions of the media in recent
years have troubled me. And in the
past several months, the media have
attracted particular attention to them-
selves.
I am referring not to the pulp publi-
cations that shoulder up to us at gro-
cery checkout lines; I am talking
about those purveyors of public'
news, those guardians of our demo-
cratic right to know what is being
done to us by powers we cannot
touch. They are network news, the
weekly magazines, the daily tabloids:
CBS News, Time, The Washington
Post, and even The East Carolinian.
They are the media sources we count
on for honest, accurate, unbiased
reporting of the facts. If you laugh at
this remark, then welcome; you are as
skeptical (delete "cynical") as I. We
no longer expect the media to present
the bare, unadulterated facts. We
know the "facts" are very much de-
pendent on who's recording them.
We're not so naive as to believe every-
thing we read in the papers or see on
the news. We know better. But that
leaves some of us wondering what
exactly it is that we do know for a fact.
What do we really know about
Bush's involvement in the Iran arms-
for-hostages-and-money deal and
subsequent diversion of monies from
that deal to the Contras? Many of us
can hazard a guess about the former
CIA chief's role, but unless a criminal
investigation were to begin, we don't
really expect Bush to "reveal all" as
Jessica Hahn and others have done.

There's no profit in it for him Whv
blame the media? I haven t on this
account.
1 believe strongly in the freedom ot
the press. I also think that this needs
much clarification. I believe the me-
dia have a responsibility- to the public
to present the happenings ot the day
as accurately and completelv as pos-
sible. I believe that actions by public
officials acting in official capacities
are the domain of such public
scrutiny. The networks and publish-
ers pay good money for thorcugh
investigative reporting; we ought to
receive it.
The problem is, it seems that these
reporters are being paid to do more
than investigative things which tall
into the public domain. The problem
is, these reporters are presenting syn-
opses of the "facts" and spending a
good deal of energy interpreting the
facts from the biases of the networks.

Change channels guys, ifs time to move on. You
guys are like "Andy Griffith" junkies, refusing to
watch any other show (which is bound to be better)
which is on at the same time. I've got the remote
control, so 111 do the honors. Let's see what is on the
East Carolina University channel.
How about Coach Mike Steele (a.ka. The Savi-
our)? Yes, I gave him the name and ifs catching on.
The All Pete Rose Team plays in Minges, baby. The
coach has the dome rockin even though we could
stand improvement in the height department. The
guys give 110 every game, which is all that counts,
though. Wait 'til next year.
How about the guy putting his resume on a bill-
board? Clever. Maybe I'll put the detailed account of
how I've lived off $80 a month for food for the last
two years on a billboard and pray someone feels
sorry for me, subsequently hiring yours truly. You
must admit, one must have motivation and drive to
look for the light past macaroni and cheese.
What about the parking problem? It was a prob-
lem five years ago, it is a problem today, and it will
be a problem five years from now. To be honest, I
ride a bike to college so it doesn't affect me in the
least. Now there's the solution, I park my less-than-
turbo-charged two-wheeler right in front of the
building I need to visit. Couldn't ask for a better
parking space. In any case, The East Carolinian
could write until is is blue in the print, but there is no
great solution for the parking problem except for a
deck, which never has gone over very well. Oh well,
grin and bear it.
Condoms in the dorms? Good idea, but as men-
tioned, they are available in the Student Health
Center if needed. Study distribution figures there,
then decide. It would be quite a convenience for the
illegal "sleep-overs" who can't leave until twelve
o'clock to be able to walk down the hall and purchase
AIDS control. Next, bartenders will be handing
them out at closing time. Hey, I might be on to
something here. Don't laugh, it may happen. Re-

Pirate Comix. Good idea, but you spelled it wrong.
Depression set in for me, however, when Man O

spaces? Oh, no! Not again! Oh, well, it happens ?
adding insult to injury. However, please make class
moves after spring semester, I'll be gone and it won't
affect me. Thanks.
Jimmy Buffett. Finally someone other than Charlie

nightclub. Besides, I go to the basketball games for
free and my disc collection is paid for. Thirdly, Carla

needs my glasses.
I think we have good movies this semester. I
always forget about them and am occupying myself
in other ways. I used to take advantage of the free
admission, out when I continued to get pelted by
paper airplanes I decided Tom and Jerry wasn't
worth it. Some advice: sit in the balcony so you can
do the flying.
Baseball is coming. I'll be there, ESPN hat and all.
A bright spot, annually, in our sports program. Too
bad pizza and coolers are a thing of the past. The
inconveniences of legislation and red tape.
Meal tickets. When I had one you could erase the
pencil marks and get an extra meal. You could also
pass it back in line to some poor slob who had no
meal ticket, no money, and really wanted to eat in
Jones Cafeteria. Those were the good 'ole days. Now
they are computerized so T have heard, and they
have your picture on them. Technology sucks.
Drop-add. When I was an undergraduate, I had to
get in line at 4 a.m. to even have a prayer of getting
the card I needed for the class I wanted. People bitch
about the computerized system ? if only they went
through the card system where the line went from
the TKE house to Memorial Gym. Oh, the wonders
of technology. The computer system is the greatest
thing since the "Drunk Bus
The Drunk Bus (the slang term used to describe the
weekend night transit that carried students home
who had a few too many to drink). Gone but not
forgotten. Budget cuts can kill. Saved many people
much money. Oh, well, Dependable Cab is in the
book.
Yes, I'm happy. For once I am praising most things
about ECU. I love ECU with good reason. My intra-
mural basketball team make the All Madden League
and is predicted 10th university-wide. All of this
promise from a team named the "Derelicts ECU is
great. We'll be lucky to win a game. Our center is
5'7 But we have that motivation and drive to on our
team, thanks to Kraft Dinners. With our diet we have
an advantage, which we'll need.
There you have it, you Nazis, conservatives, liber-
als, communists left wingers, right wingers, Jr. Jesse
Helms, next Mr. Reagans, wimpy George Bush
loving imcompetents, etc etc etc. The issues, baby.
Whats been done, what is needed, what will be
done. To me, the bottom line is what counts. If s what

Contra aid
To the editor:
It amazes me that liberals still
oppose aid to the Contras even
after the Sandinistas have admit-
ted they plan to shred the Arias
Peace Plan and, with the aid of the
USSR and Cuba, to spread com-
munism throughout Central
America Why are liberals, par-
ticularly the Students for Eco-
nomic Democracy, still putting
up their anti-Contra propaganda
all over this campus (that is, when
they are not tearing down the pro-
Contra posters)?!
Look, liberals, the cat is out of
the bag: it's now publicized fact
that the conservatives have been
and are right and liberals have
been and are wrong about the
situation in Nicaragua all along
Roger Miranda Benegoechea,
34, a former key Sandinista leader
and aide to Nicaraguan Defense
Minister Humberto Ortega, de-
fected a couple of months ago and
has effectively destroyed every
liberal myth about Nicaragua.
Miranda revealed that the Sovi-
ets, the Cubans, and the Sandinis-
tas met in Managua in late Octo-
ber to:
1. defeat the Contras militarily;
2. funnel fresh military assis-
tance to the Marxist-Leninist
revolutionaries in El Salvador;
3. and help construct a 600,000
man Sandinista military.
And the amazing thingabout
these disclosures is that the
Sandinistas themselves have
openly admitted that they are
true The Sandinistas themselves
have proven that, once again,
conservatives are right and liber-
als are wrong (which is always the
case where communism is con-
cerned).
Now will you wake up to the
truth, liberals? Ifnot, when, when,
when? The truth is known: will
you accept it or continue to flatly
deny any reality that happens to
contradict your idealistic dreams
of Marxist paradise?
Scott Kirtland

Blades wrong
To the editor:
Walter Blades "No contras" let-
ter (Jan. 26), while thoughtfully
written and laudably pragmatic,
was nonetheless full of error.
Blades: "We don't have the
right to dominate the internal af-
fairs of another country I would
like to ask Blades if he supports
sanctions against South Africa?
Since he's a liberal, he surely
must. If he does, I would like to
know why he thinks that we have
no right to "dominate the internal
affairs" of Nicaragua, but at the
same time, that we have every
right to dominate the internal af-
fairs of South Africa? How can
liberals in general take such si-
multaneous, contradictory posi-
tions?
Shouldn't the U.S. be against
ALL forms of oppression,
whether the oppression in ques-
tion is Apartheid or Commu-
nism? Especially when the coun-
tries in question are vitally impor-
tant to future U.S. national secu-
rity? (Of course, the failures of the
liberals' sanctions against S. Af-
rica to dismantle Apartheid are
another matter.)
Blades: "During the Somoza
dictatorship, there was tremen-
dous poverty and inequality in
Nicaragua, thus the revolution
and thus the Soviet presence
What liberals like Blades refuse to
admit, however, is that the pov-
erty and inequality under the
Communist Sandinistas is far
worse than in the days of Somoza.
They refuse to listen to the warn-
ings of Nicaraguan citizens: "It's
much worse now. We didn't have
honest elections in the time of
Somoza, but at least the people
had food" (Myriam Arguello
Morales); "With all my heart, I tell
you it is worse now than it was in
the times of Somoza dictatorship"
(Violetta Chamorro).
It should be noted that both of
these women lead in the fight
against Somoza. You see, compar-
ing a right-wing dictatorship like
Somoza's with a Communist dic-
tatorship like Ortega's is like
comparing a hangnail with a
malignant brain-tumor
Blades: "What are the real in-
tentions of the Sandinistas?" As if
we already didn't know. As if
hearing what they plan to do
straight from the Sandinistas'
mouths is not enough! Look,
Blades and all other liberals,
Sandinista defector Roger Mi-
randa has already revealed and
the Sandinistas have already
admitted what their "real inten-
tions" are. They plan to shred the
Arias Peace Plan by building a
huge army, defeating the Contras
militarily, and exporting Com-
munist revolution to other Cen-
tral American countries. This is
what they have admitted to
doing, and this is what Contras
supporters have been trying to tell
the liberals all along.
And liberals still won't listen,
even when the Sandinistas them-
selves have revealed their inten-
tions! Unbelievable, intentional
ignorance
Blades: "But we've never ever
given the Sandinistas a chance
Wrong! We have been giving the
Sandinistas chances for years to
prove their honesty, and they
have proven to be liars, just as one
would expect revolution-minded
Commurists to be. In 1979, the
Sandinistas signed a pledge to the
Organ! i.ion of American States
to form a "New Nicaragua, a
democratic state" and insure "the
right of all Nicaraguans to politi-
cal participation without ideo-
logical discrimination They
have had almost ten years to fulfill
these promises.
And guess what, sports fans?
Now we know through their own
words that they have no inten-
tions of complying with either the
1979 or Arias Peace Plans, no
matter how many chances we
give them.
Blades: "The Nicaraguans
should decide the future of their
own country Exactly! That's
precisely why we should help the
Contras, native sons of Nicara-
gua, decide the future of their
own country, not the Soviet
Union!
None of the liberal anti-Contra
arguments are logical or realistic.
None.

Bern again
To the editor:
Bern McCrady's Jan. 21 letter
("Former writer attacks the right
with biting comments") was the
most hypocritical, error-filled lib-
eral tirade I've ever read.
All I've got to say about
McCrady's McCarthyish name-
calling and labeling is that it can
do nothing but make liberals on
this campus look bad. And if I was
one of the liberals still at this
campus, I would be angry and
upset by his lib-embarrasing tan-
trums.
McCrady viciously attacks 1fhe
Contras and Pat Robertson. Con-
cerning the former: it amazes me
that McCrady continues to blast
and lie about the Contras, hysteri-
cally proclaiming the same igno-
rant liberal baloney that the Con-
tras are the real villains in Nicara-
gua.
For crying out loud, liberals,
Sandinista defector Miranda has
revealed and the Sandinistas
themselves have admitted that
they have no intentions of com-
plying with Arias Peace Plan and
that they are trying to spread
Communism throughout Central
America. It seems pretty darn
stupid not to want to aid the
Contras in light of these facts.
Hard-line conservative anti-
Comminists have always been
right when it comes to the nature,
activities and goals of Communist
regimes; on i. other hand, Marx-
ist-sympath???.? liberals like
McCrady have always been
wrong.
Why in the world would any
thinking person listen to a liberal
making claims about the commu-
nist-fighting Contras giver their
always wrongnever right i vX: - rd
about communism?
Look, everybody, the Sandinis-
tas are Marxist-Leninist revolu-
tionaries whose goals are the con-
solidation of a Soviet client sta te in
our hemisphere and the exporting
of Communist revolution.
Miranda's revelations, quotes
from the Sandinista leaders, and
the massive Soviet militaryeco-
nomic 2xpenditures in our own
hemisphere all underscore these
two Communist goals.
McCrady demonstrated unpar-
alleled ignorance and intolerance
through his vicious and un-
founded attack on Pat Robertson.
McCrady claims that Robertson
has "fattened his wallet like other
TV Jesus freaks implying that he
is anefV??" Jim Bakker that grew
rich off the money sent in by
unknowing people. McCrady is
wrong. The financial records of
CBN Communications Network,
which Robertson founded, are
open to the public for anyone to
study. Robertson has never made
a dishonest cent off any of his
organizations or ministries.
Maybe McCrady is claiming to
know something the IRS doesn't?
McCrady claims that Roberston
has no integrity because he got his
girlfriend pregnant 30 years ago.
Well, maybe McCrady thinks he
himself is perfect, but all the rest
of us do make mistakes. What
McCrady doesn't seem to realize
is that Robertson married his girl-
friend and has remained faithful
to her for over 30 years. Yes, he did
make a mistake, but one for which
he is repentent and one for which
he took full responsibility.
I wonder if McCrady would
have acted as responsibly as
Robertson in the same situation. I
wonder if he, being pro-abortion,
would have persuaded his girl-
friend to kill their baby. Now
murder is real integrity, I must
say.
Finally, McCrady claims that
Robertson is not compassionate
and that he "attacks Jews What
incredible nonsense.
Would someone that "attacks
Jews" have received the National
Merit Award from the National
Council of Christians and Jews?
Robertson did. Would someone
that is not compassionate sell
everything he owned to live with
the poverty-stricken, downtrod-
den, urban ghetto blacks of the
Bedford-Stuyvesant area of New
York City? Roberston did. Would
someone that is not compassion-
ate have, in the last two years
alone, helped over 15 million
destitute, homeless, uneducated,
needy people from every color,
race and creed under the sun?
Robertson did.

No Contras
To the editor:
"A number of us feel we have a
moral obligation not to hang the
Contras out to dry' Rep. Thomas
Carper is quoted as saying in
support of giving them $10 mil-
lion more next quarter.
Some of us feel that much wor-
thier people have been killed with
minimal attention from our gov-
ernment ? Nicaraguan health
workers, teachers, community
leaders, families, for example.
(Why attack soldiers when if s so
much safer to attack civilians?)
And how about Guatemalan Indi-
ans, killed or driven out of their
homes by the thousands of Salva-
dorans bombed by their "demo-
cratic government and made refu-
gees from their own country?
The Nicaraguans got rid of
Somoza without any U.S. mil-
lions. If the Contras can't get by
for a measly three months of ne-
gotiation on the fat they've accu-
mulated, let them dry up!

Art and reason
When Mark and I decided to spend
the weekend at his mother's house,
I never imagined I would be walking
into a mouse's nightmare. There were
cats everywhere.
Cat plaques, cat statues, cat clocks,
even a cat mat. 1 couldn't begin to dupli-
cate her collection of kitty litter if 1 spent
a year at a garage sale. Conspicuously'
absent, however, was a real cat. Strange,
I thought, and began to fear that a
weekend with cat woman could be a
lot less than purr-feet
Hut then she came home, and
Mark introduced her. She was
dressed surprisingly well?no
leopard pants. In fact, you
could sav she was the cat s meow;
but Id rather not.
She offered me a cup of Dutch Choc-
olate Mint. Now that was something
I could relate to. Then she brought it
out in the most beautiful, distinctly
iintelinc china Id ever seen. As we
sipped, I found out that Mrs. Campbell
has my same weakness for chocolate,
loves the theater as much as I do, but,
incredibly never saw "Cats So Mark
and I are taking her next month.

Wilmington, Vocational Home
Economics teacher in the New
i lanover Countv school system.

Hie awards will be a highlight

guished 1 ecture Series of the ECU
School of Education, in Hendrix
Theatre at 7 p.m. Featured
speaker will be Dr. Phillip Sch-
presents
lechty, executive director of
Ghcens Academy in Louisville,
Ky.
The "Outstanding Educator
Award" is presented annually to
educators who are graduates of
teacher education programs at
East Carolina University and who
were nominated by their col-
leagues.
Dr. Martin has been a teacher of
science and mathematics at Tar-
boro and Pinetops in Edgccombe
County, an assistant principal in
Rocky Mount and has been in the
Vance County system since 1981
when she became director of sec-
ondary education for the Vance
County schools.
In 1986, as the executive secre-
tary of the Citizens of Excellence
in Education, she led a successful
effort to pass an $18 million school
bond issue in Vance County.
Martin received her under-
graduate degree from Atlantic
Christian College, her master's
degree from ECU and the doctor-
ate in Education at Duke Univer-
sity.
Mrs. Parnell received both
undergraduate and graduate
degrees from ECU and began her
teaching career at Clayton High
School in 1961-1964. She taught at
Tileston Junior High and Roland-
Grise Junior High in Wilmington
and joined the faculty at John T.
Hoggard High School in 1969.
She has been a part-time con-
tributor to the Wilmington Morn-
ing Star's food and dietary sec-
tions, a dietary consultant to nurs-
ing homes and a consultant for
media review and evaluation for
the state department of public
instruction.
She has authored texts on
homemaking skills, a student ac-
tivity guide for homemaking
skills and an instructor's guide in
addition to numerous articles for
newspapers and national maga-
zines.
Dr. Vila Rosenfield, ECU coor-
dinator for secondary education,
said "Mrs. Parnell is an example
of teaching at its best. Students are
taught through example and
learning experiences to have a
positive attitude, to see the best in
everyone and to make the best of
what is. Students are taught to
think and to make decisions.
"She goes beyond the class-
room and into the community to
Apartheid protests quiet down when
university South Africa stocks sold
(CPS) ? About a year ago,
University of Missouri at Colum-
bia police were arresting 41
people who had invaded Presi-
dent C. Peter Magrath's office,
demanding the university sell its
investments in linns that do busi-
ness in segregationist South Af-
r i C3.
The arrests, it turned out, were
but one et a series of upheavals on
the campus, where protest shan-
ties were repeatedly vandalized
and administrators complained
harassment.
But the MU campus was quiet
two weeks ago when, on Jan. 11,
its trustees voted to sell all the
Soutli African stocks in question.
Ihe change was indicative of
the anti-apartheid movement on
LS. campuses recently. It has, in
chort. been very quiet.
"The movement is a victim of its
own success said Wayne
Glasker, a grad student and anti-
apartheid activist at the Univer-
sity o Pennsylvania, which will
divest in iune, 1988.
It was three years ago, in Janu-
ary 1985, that the anti-apartheid
movement ? a fitfully active ef-
fort on a handful of campuses
since the 1960s ? abruptly be-
came a national phenomenon as
dozens of campuses erupted in
protests, rallies and sit-ins.
Since then, of course, the issue
dominated political life at hun-
dreds of schools, and many of
those campuses have complied
with protestors' demand that
they sell the offending stocks.
By contrast, in January, 1988,
Eastern Michigan University stu-
dents forced South African golfer
Gary PI aver - - who, in fact, op-
poses apartheid ? to disassociate
himself from an EMU golf course
project.
Otherwise, colleges have been
quiet.
One reason, some observers
sav, is that South African censors
have cut the amount of news
coming out of that country, rob-
bing students of the sense of out-
rage that motivated them in the
past.
Others blame a trendy U.S.
media, which don't cover the is-
sue much. "The problem with the
media complained Prof. Jacqui
Wade, head of Pcnn's Afro-
American Studies program, "is
that it measures success by the
numbers that attend a rally, not by
the issues raised
Still others see a natural evolu-
tion occuring.
"On our campus Missouri

"you can trace the stages of move-

ber "embarrassed the university7'
into taking action.
"Students show support when
there is something to do she
maintained, "and they're still in-
terested in the issue
The trick to keeping pressure on
South Africa to dismantle apart-
heid, others say, is in finding ways
to let students here do something
about it.
"Activists must work to find
ways to deal with people's daily
lives Kim Paulus of the National
Student Action Center said.
"Thev need to engage that moral
outrage
Josh Nessen of the American
Committee on Africa, which has
organized hundreds of campus
anti-apartheid efforts during the
years, contended the movement is
still building at some campuses
though he conceded that, at oth-
ers, "people have moved on to
other issues and broadened their
agendas
They have broadened, too, their
definition of which stocks cam-
puses should sell.
University of Washington stu-
dents, for instance, are challeng-
ing UW trustees' announcement
that they finished divesting on
Dec. 1, 1987. The students main-
tain the school still holds $2.5
million in stocks in firms with
indirect ties to South Africa.
At Penn, Glasker is monitoring
Penn's holding in Coca-Cola,
General Motors. IBM and Shell
Oil.
"The reasons for divesting from
GM and IBM are even more com-
pelling claimed Patrick
Hagopian, another Penn activist.

guidelines like the Sullivan Prin-
ciples a list of civil rights compa-
nies agreed to respect among their
South African workers.
Still other groups are shifting
their focus to racism in the U.S.
University of Utah Students
Against Apartheid, for example,
picketed a Salt Lake City tailor
shop after the owner posted a sign
on the front door warning, "Black
people may not enter
"If Salt Lake City is practicing
racism, then how can we expect
the rest of the world to solve their
racial prejudices?" Utah student
Tom Price asked.
At Missouri, "the anti-apart-
heid movement has sparked a lot
of awareness of racism on cam-
pus Judie reported.
But when George Washington
University students tried to refo-
cus their anti-apartheid group to
broader racism issues, "we got
bogged down, we had no concrete
goals GW organizer David
Hicks said.
Glasker agreed, noting "what
attracted people (to the apartheid
issue) was the moral clarity of the
issue
Now, however, "the issue is no
longer as clear. It's hard to mobi-
lize that sense of outrage. As a
result, we may have lost some
people. They may feel we've

der) 'what more do you want?

Ms. Clark has taught at
Murfreesboro Middle School for
14 years. She "provides outstand-
ing leadership for other teachers
as chair of the mathematics de-
partment said principal Vir-
ginia S. Myers.
She is a trainer for in-service
workshops and as a resource per-
son for mathematicsscience cur-
riculum programs. She teaches
advanced mathematics courses,
sponsors the Mathcounts pro-
gram and a regional math contest.
She also teaches eighth grade sci-

Ms. Clark received her under-
graduate degree in secondary
education from Longwood Col-
lege in Virginia and a master's in
elementary education degree
from ECU. She taught previously
in Halifax and Wake Counties
and in Nottoway County, Va.
Mrs. Hoyt was selected as the
1987 Elizabeth City-Pasquotank
County "Teacher of the Year" last
fall. Superintendent William C.
Symons said Mrs. Hoyt is "among
the best at providing a strong
academic environment with high
expectations and an environment
that is warm, supportive and
positive
Mrs. Hoyt is a native of Raleigh
and grew up in Johnston County
and attended public schools in
Smithfield. A 1959 graduate of
East Carolina, she began teaching
at John Tyler Elementary School
in . Portsmouth, Va and also
taught at High Point before mov-
ing to Elizabeth City.
'Teaching school is a job I have
looked forward to every one of
my 26 years in education she
said. "It is just as exciting and
certainly more challenging than it
was when I first began in 1959.
There is no doubt in my mind that
I was meant to do anything but
teach. I shall continue to give
teaching my best in molding the
lives of future citizens, for this is
my contribution to society

producers to begin to compete
with big screen terror.
Before network restrictions
began to literally cast the devil
from programming, there existed
the possibility of real horror. This
was most notably realized in Boris
Karloff's "Thriller" episodes,
"Pigeons from Hell "The Cheat-
ers and the "The Grim Reaper
Then the network's typically
tasteless censors held sway for
over 25 years. As la teas,lg?5,?the
revived "Twilight Zone came
under the clippers. Only recently,
producers have taken advantage
of the lesser restrictions of syndi-
cation and Fox's new network.
Gore, violence, and atmosphere
can now be presented in heavy
doses.
In format, the new horror pro-
grams owe a debt to Darren
McGavin's "Kolchak! the Night
Stalker currently being rerun on
CBS. Unlike the former antholo-
gies, they feature recurring char-
acters in the spooky situation of
the week.
"Werewolf" started out weakly
in its two-hour premier as basi-
cally "The Fugitive" starring a
werewolf. Since then, the produc-
ers have succeeded admirably in
overcoming both the structural
limitations and the 30 minute time
slot.
Certain episodes focus on the
hero Eric's encounters with other
unlikely werewolves, such as a
monk and a seedy boarding house
operator. In a notable two-parter,
they killed the main character
who, understandably, was not
present in the concluding epi-
sode. And there have been stories
based on American Indian my-
thology.
"Werewolf" still has its prob-
lems. The men in werewolf suits
are as convincing as a gorilla in a
poverty-row movie serial. There's
some corny dialogue and campy
delivery that would make Ed-
ward Wood, Jr. cringe. Still, it is
surprisingly effective despite
these flaws.

Bad Checks sound like boss group
By STEVE SOMMERS
t Staff Writer
In my other record reviews I did
a lot of talking about producers,
mix quality, back-up vocals and
things of that nature. But, I think 1
was forgetting where I was com-
ing from. 1 didn't remember what
it means to be drenched in sweat
with my ears ringing and loving
every bit of it, and that's not re-
membering The Bad Checks are
all about.
Their latest record, "Inno-
cence has no bass or treble defi-
nition, cheap echo vocal effects
and is 100 sweat and blood rock-
n-roll. This record is the epitome
of what it means to get-off.
Anybody who likes the bullshit
that Led Zeppelin use to do and
realizes it was bullshit will like
this record. The bullshit I'm refer-
ring to is all that psuedo-psyche-
delic "Yeah, heavy man" stuff.
The Bad Checks are by no means a
psychedelic band but they arc full
of shit and they do a great cover of
Led Zepplin's "Rock and Roll
They've been called voo-
doobilly, graveyard rock, and an
assortment of other non-innocent
labels which are actually amaz-
ingly accurate. Most the time I
don't agree with labels people put
on bands but with The Bad
Checks I think it's deserving.
On the cover of the import copy
of "Innoncence" is a picture of this
girl lying on her bed with her
pants pulled down to her knees
and a record sticking out of her
butt. If you talk to the band they
will deny having anything to do
with the record in the butt bit and
they almost seem sincere. Just
when you start to believe them
you realize they are pulling off a
lot of this semi-credible stuff.
On the song "Crimes of Pas-
sion" Hunter Landen, their singer
moans through these lyrics.
'Those fingernails are digging
into my skin. I feel the chill that
goes with her being scared. Too
late to act, as if I really cared. I
know inside everything will be
alright.
Crimes of passion never go out
Guy writes book about fairies
NEW YORK (AD-Somewhere
out there, bevond the safe borders
of sanity and not too far from that
dark place at the back of closets
where scary things romp with
evil, is another world.
It's a place where fantasy col-
lides with reason, where night-
mares are made. It's also the locale
of one of the juiciest reads of the
season, Raymond E. Feist's "Fa-
erie Tale" (Doubleday, $17.95).
Much in the tradition of those
contemporary masters of fright,
such as Peter Straub, Cli ve Barber
and Whitley Streiber, Feist blends
scholarship with fantasy - in this
case, Celtic lore and superstition.
Fairies, he says, are an older,
dominant race, beings who have
existed perhaps longer than
humankind.
"What if there was another
world existing contiguously with
our own? Why don't we see it?
Because someone is driving a
wedge between us and that
world
And who might that be? Ah, an
anciet society of magi - a priest-
hood that exists only to maintain
the balance of things between us
and that world
"The genesis of the book is that
fairies were real and there was
this priesthood that keeps us
apart Feist said in a recent inter-
view. "My theory was that we've
been at war with fairies and one
side won and dictated the terms
and some of the fairies want to
break the treaty
Into this web of wicked play
steps the Hastings family, who
move from Southern Clifornia to a
farm in upstate New York that
happens to border the Fairy
Woods.
Almost immediately, some
members of the family sense a
presence, especially young Pat-
rick whose twin, Sean, poohs-
poohs his bedtime fears. But Pat-
rick knows The Bad Thing is
watching. Waiting.
One day, while the boys play by
the Troll Bridge that crosses the
stream in the woods on the path to
their home, Patrick meets his
worst nightmare face to face. He
falls in the icy water and the cur-
rent pulls him under the bridge.
"Claws seized him, and he felt
his T-shirt rip, while pain erupted
on his arm. He struck out with
small fists, which hit something
soft and fleshy. He felt himself
being lifted up, and his nose was
filled with the stink of rotting
meat.
"The Bad Thing hung by three
limbs beneath the bridge, upside
down like a giant spider. It
clutched the boy's arm in one
clawed hand, and above the
pounding sound of the water
Patrick could hear its inhuman
sounds
of fasion These lyrics in them-
selves aren't exactly innocent but
when you consider when Hunter
moans "I know inside" and
you're not real sure he's not say-
ing "I know her inside" it's defi-
nitely not innocent. But that's
rock-n-roll. You got to love it.
What I meant by the import
copy is that this record actually
came out in 1986 in France. The
Bad Checks worked out a deal
with an independent French la-
bel, Music Action Records, just to
get the pressing, although the
recording was done right here in
the ol' US of A, North Carolina
style.
This is actually a fairly common
practice for unsigned bands to
look to other countries for inde-
pendent labels to press their re-
cordings. All of this has to do with
different taxes and tariffs. The
Gun Club does something like
this. But now The Bad Checks are
on Black Park Records, the label
The Connells started to make
their own records.
But unlike the Connells, the Bad
Checks shows can get out of hand.
Last time they were in Greenville
some marine threw a bottle on
stage and there was a fight and
some marines got kicked out. But,
it wasn't too bad, my mother was
there and had a fine time. Al-
though she did stay in the pool
room most of the time.
Underground hosts Bad Bob
By CAROL WETHERINGTON
Staff Writer
There was no bubble gum rock
in the Underground Friday night.
Badjfcb ami the Rockinghorses
performed to a very receptive
audieifPe flrf"WpproximateIy 60.
Displaying great musical talent
and a wide range of'boogie blues'
were J.W. Raburn on bass, Bob
Aiken on drums and Bad Bob
Tunnell on lead guitar and vocals.
The Rockinghorses formed
during late summer of 1987 and
have since played in New Deli,
Wrong Way Corrigans and now
The Underground.
Specializing in blues and rock-
n-roll, (featuring Hound Dog
Taylor, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Dale
Hawkins and Elvis Presley), the
group has been well accepted and
is building a following.
The Rockinghorses are now
cutting a demo tape. It is being
produced right here in
Greenville, and should be avail-
able to local radio stations in a
couple of weeks.
So, whether you're a fan of Bad
Bob and the Rocking horses or you
prefer bubble-gum rock, let Un-
derground coordinator Ron
Maxwell know your interests for
future reference in scheduling
bands.
Adcock ends up a strong poet
Continued from page 9
at night, after her husband and
daughter were sleeping, to get the
necessary quiet to concentrate on
her writing.
She married Don Adcock, an
ECU alumnus while she was 18.
He is now retired after 22 years of
holding the position of Band Di-
rector at N.C. State.
Adcock, having realized her
initial ambition as a poet, found
that it was time to take the next
step - the publishing of a book.
And as before, she had the good
luck to get published on her first
submission.
The Louisiana State University
press, one of the the few bastions
for Southern writers in the late 60s
and early 70s, printed her first
book. They have printed all of her
other books as well.
As the discussion turns to her
major influences, Adcock smiles.
Having already told the work-
shop about the impact James
Dickey had on her, she relates the
story of how a six month study
and 200 page paper on Robinson
Jeffers taught her that "poetry IS
important
She has, as all serious writers
do, "dozens" of influences. But
Dickey and Jeffers taught her the
validity of using her own experi-
ences as a basis for her writing,
and the importance of imagery to
push a narrative along.
Adcock knows exactly how
important that kind of imagery is.
One poem, "Walking Out a
depiction of her father-in-law's
near drowning, took her 12 years
and hundreds of drafts to finish.
She doesn't see herself as a par-
ticular ambitious poet. She "just
wants to get the poem to where
it's going Nevertheless, 12 years
of revision on one poem speaks
highly of achievement.
Her poems are often concerned
with the everyday baptisms that
occur when an ordinary event
transforms the poet or reader. The
observer sees that the drab and
dull are really as miraculous as
the extraordinary.
As she says in her "South
Woods in October,With the Spi-
ders of Memory - "The world's
strung with embraces

They're going to be playing on
Thursday at The New Deli and it
should be a good show. I've never
seen them do a bad show. Also he
will be playing with that rock-
abilly madman Dexter
Romweber which is an added at-
traction.
Bad Checks and Dexter shows
have always been my favorite. In
fact, I have this fantasy where I get
to throw a week long party with a
different band every night.
The first six nights the bands
would be Fishbone, Mojo Nixon
and Skid Roper, Fetchin Bones, X,
and maybe The Talking Heads;
and on the final night, without
question, would be The Bad
Checks and Dexter Romweber.

lanages to shine brightly.
Gleason has been involved with
Int the Woods" since May 198b
whei. she was called in to audition
for a workshop production to be
done at Playwrights Horizons, a
small off-Broadway theater com-
pany.
She went along to San Diego's
Old Globe Theater where the
musical tried out later in the year.
Before "Into the Woods" finally
opened in New York on Nov. 5,
the actress had devoted nearly 18
months to it.
She has seen the musical evolve
from a tiny workshop production
to a mammoth Broadway musical
costing nearly $4 million.
Gleason has been in the theater
for more than 20 years. The ac-
tress, who was born in Toronto,
has been near show business all
her life.
Her father is Monty Hall, best
known as host of the popular tele-
vision game show "Let's Make a
Deal Her mother was a teen-age
radio star in Canada, who after
she raised three children, went
back to school and became an
Emmy award-winning television
producer. Still, Gleason had what
she calls a normal childhood,
en after her family moved to
Southern California.
"My parents elected not to be
part of a Hollywood scene she
says. "Their roots were very
strong into family and a close
circle of friends
But their daughter always
wanted to be an actress and acted
in plays throughout high school
and college. New York audiences
first noticed Gleason in 1977 in the
Cy Coleman musical, "I Love My
Wife She left the show after a 14-
month run and returned to Cali-
fornia.
Gleason came back to New
York in 1981 after her marriage to
musical conductor Paul Gleason
collapsed. Theatergoers didn't
see her on stage until three years
later when she was hired as a
standby for Tom Stoppard's "The
Real Thing" and went on at sev-
eral performances.
The show began her profes-
sional relationship with director
Mike Nichols who put her in a
small role in the film "Heartburn"
and had her play a neurotic sister-
in-law in the Broadway comedy
"Social Security
"Mike creates an environment
in rehearsal that is so much fun
Gleason says. "He also has such
intelligence that he encourages
you to be smarter. That's part of
his genius. He lets everybody
flourish
Gleason's theater career has
continued to flourish in New
York. There were roles in Ter-
rence McNallv's acerbic theater
comedy, "It's Only a Play and a
juicy part in the British drama
"Joe Egg And there was a new
marriage, to Michael Bennahum,
president of Kaufman Asstoria
Studios, with whom she has
formed a production company.
But "Into the Woods" will be
her main occupation for the com-
ing months. A Sondheim musical
demands a lot from a performer.
"Sondheim songs are harder to
act than other songs I have sung
she says. "They are fuller. They
are more full of thought and you
have to convey those thoughts to
an audience
The prospect of a long run with
"Into the Woods" doesn't faze
her. in fact, she welcomes it.
"How can you be bored?" Glea-
son asks. "You're getting to do the
one thing you've prayed all your
life to do. It would be ungracious
to be bored

"Canciones de mi Padre how-

Ronstadt soul.
The singer traces her Hispanic
roots in the Americas back to Jose
Francisco do Ortega. A Spanish
Army sergeant in the 1769 Alta
California expedition of explorer
Gaspar de Portola. Ortega was the
first Spaniard to set eves on San
Francisco Bay.
Ronstadt also has in her lineage
Henry Dalton, an Englishman
who came to Mexican California
and acquired Rancho Azusa and
part oi the Rancho San Francis-
quito, both in Southern Califor-
nia.
"People say, 'Oh, you have a
German surname she said

say 'We didn't move, the border

"We thought of ourselves as
Mexicans she said of her child-
hood. "1 didn't realize until I trav-
eled to Mexico that I was an
American
Ronstadt's first and biggest in-
fluence in song styles was the
Mexican singer Lola Beltran,
whom she saw as a child and has
performed with as an adult-an
experience she relates with fan-
like enthusiasm.
As a credit to the leverage she
has acquired as an artist, "Can-
ciones" was produced and dis-
tributed with no known demo-
graphic market in an era when
radio stations are defining their
play lists by age, race, income, and
attitude.
The record, despite its obscure
material, has climbed into the Top
100 oi the Billboard charts and
Ronstadt appeared on NBC's
"Saturday Night Live" to bring
some of the passionate ranchero
singing style to its hip audience.
Ronstadt said she began zero-
ing in on a long-held desire to
make a Spanish-language album
three years ago when she renego-
tiated her contract with Asylum
Records.

Campbell University avenged
an early-season loss to East Caro-
lina Monday night by recording a
77-50 rout over the Pirates in Fay-
ctteville.
The hot-shooting Camels broke
open a 38-36 halftime game to
blow past the Pirates for the vic-
tory. For the game, Campbell shot
a sizzling 64 percent from the
field.
The loss dropped the Pirates to
6-13 for the year and increased
their losing streak to five games.
Campbell improved to 10-8 for
the year with the win.
Leading the way for Campbell
was Henry Wilson, who tossed in
a game-high 21 points. In leading
the Camels in scoring, Wilson
connected on eight of nine field
goal attempts. Other players in
double figures for the Camels
included Brad Childress, who
made nine of 10 field goals, with byas??P
18 points and Gary Elmore w?h ??? ??3
The Pirates were led in scoring Pirates' Kenny Murphy, who was
by Cus Hill, who scored 16 points, battling for a loose ball.

halftime.
In the second half, the Pirates hit
on only six field goal attempts in
recording only 14 points, their
losest point total for a half this
year.
The loss came on the heels of a
heartbreaking 71-69 CAA loss to
UNC-Wilmington Saturday on
the road.
Roy Walker canned a pair of
free throws with one second
showing to give the Seahawks the
victory over the Pirates, who led for 7:30 p.m.
Houzer followed up a Mark Gary
missed free throw.
The Pirates then held the ball
until Hinton missed on a 3-
pointcr with five seconds to play,
setting up Murphy's foul.
The loss dropped the Pirates to
2-5 in CAA action.
The next conference competi-
tion for the Pirates will come Sat-
urday when they host George

Wolfpack puts knife a little deeper in wound
T i
A look at sports
By TIM CHANDLER
Sports Editor
m
The wound keeps growing.
As much as the loss of the an-
nual battle on the football field
with the Wolfpack hurt the fans
and backers of Pirate sports,
jimmy "V" and the powers thatbe
in Raleigh have rammed the knife
into the Tiratcs' backs a little
deeper.
The athletic department at State
has cancelled this year's two base-
ball games with the Pirates. The
reason is reportedly because of a
concern about further altercations
between the fans.
Obviously, the cancellation of
the series spawned after the post-
game celebration by Pirate fans in
Carter-Finley Stadium. The cele-
bration broke out after the Pirates
had claimed a 32-14 victory over
the Wolfpack last September.
A one-year moratorium was
placed on the football game after
the incident. At the same time,
according to ECU head baseball
coach Gary Overton, State's ath-
letic council decided to include
the baseball series in the morato-
rium.
The football scries has since
been put on a permanent hold by
the Wolfpack. This came about
after officials at State refused to
comply with ECU's athletic direc-
tor Dave Hart's proposal that the
game be played on a home-and-
home basis when the series re-
sumed. All previous football
games between the two schools
have been played in Raleigh.
Overton, who was contacted by
the Wolfpack's baseball coach
Rav Tanner about the cancellation
J
of the games, said that he has
worked desperately to try to in-
sure that this is the only year the
baseball games will be canceled.
"We're extremely disappointed
that they canceled the games this
year Overton said. "It (the can-
cellation) first came to my atten-
tion back in September after the
Mantronix still rockin' in IRS
Intramural basketball is still
dominating the campus sport
scene. Nearly all the leagues have
now seen action. Mantronix, the
pre-scason tournament champs,
ITie Fellows and The Dream Team
were the runaway winners in last
week's contests. Mantronix
whipped league foe PMS 84-28 in
their opening game in the Men' s
Independent "A" Pistons League,
also cruised to wins. The Dream
Team drubbed the Sprints 89-29,
while The Fellows racked up
Wild wood 92-33. According to
reports, the keys to beating these
teams is to stop the fast break.
In other games from the Knicks
League, The Masters beat The
Aminals, 66-41; The Beaver Boys
downed The Navigators, 69-22;
and Essence cooled the Coolers,
54-38.
In other independent league
action, The Zoo beat Them, 55-30;
C-Ya defeated Alchoholics B, 46-
23; The Wheels rolled over Phi
Tappa Keg, 61-37; Phanton 7

Fresh Crew stopped the Stoners,
68-53; The Do Wrongs did right
against Motley Crew, 70-57; and
Cremasters of the Universe con-
quered Lethal Weapon, 57-40.
King Of the Hill, led by this
week's Hot Shot Ron Wilson,
continued his climb to the top
witha 70-54 victory over Scientific
Method .Wilson canned 24 points,
while teammate Darryl Griffin
added 22. In other residence hall
action last week, Jones Slamatics
beats Jarvis A, 50-22; Scott 100
Proof stopped the Slay Syndicate,

Belk Ball Slingers, 41-26; and the
Belk Sharpshooters beat the
Aycock 60-Niners, 51-31.
Finally, in Fraternity "A"
League action, Kappa Sigma
stoped Lambdi Chi Alpha, 46-39;
Pi Kappa Alpha tripped Phi Tau,
55-37; Phi Beta Sigma surprised
Alpha Sigma Phi, 48-13; and
Sigma Phi Epsilon won over Pi

Co-Rec Bowling Registration is
completed and action got under-
way Monday afternoon. Scrags,
Todd and the 3 disciples, and

sible?) are the league's top three

III all receive honorable mention
(just for Luck.)
Leagues One and Two are in
action Monday and Wednesays
between 4 & 7 p.m while League
Four competes Tuesdays nd
Thursdays form 5:30 to 7 p.m.

Wolfpack is going to be a difficult
decision for Pirate supporters to
accept.
According to Overton, there
have never been any fan "inci-
dents" at baseball games between
the Pirates and the Wolfpack.
"We have always had a great
relationship with N.C. State and
there have never been any prob-
lems at any of our games Over-
ton said. "None of us (baseball
coaches) know exactly why they
(State) dropped trs: They are say-
ing it is to avoid any possible
problems with fans at the games.
But I couldn't foresee any inci-
dents occurring
The picture from the
Wolfpack's point of view is start-
ing to clear somewhat. Let's put it
in a scenario.
N.C. State won the national
championship in basketball in
1983. Next came the resurgence of
the Wolpack football team last
season. And, almost every sea-
son, the Pack can be seen at or near
the top of the ACC and region in
baseball.
Now, consider this. You are
living on the west coast and you
wake up one morning in the fall
and open your newspaper and
read that East Carolina defeated
N.C. State, 32-14, in football. Or
maybe, the win was in baseball, or
even basketball.
A victory over the Wolfpack, if
you are East Carolina, means only
good things. It can help you in
recruiting, it helps you gain na-
tional attention and it gives you a.
big step toward major recogni-
tion.
A loss to the Pirates, if you are
N.C. State, brings only bad re-
sults. The Pirates can use the win
over the Wolfpack to possibly
steal some recruits, the national
recognition already obtained by
the Wolfpack could be hampered
some also.
The bottom line, if you are N.C
State, is you can't help but be
frightened to play the up-and-
coming Pirates in any athletic
competition.
The result, if you are N.C. State,
is push the knife a little deeper in
the Pirates' backs.
And make the wound continue
to grow. ??

One 0f the most memorable

started about 2 p.m. Sunday when
Earlvis and fellow Redskin,
Chuck, took a couple of bingers.
Some of our friends are anti-Re-
dskins and we had to listen to
their constipated talk.
By 3:30 we were down at
Ralph's and the ruggers' pig
cooking. Some of the guys there
were trugid, a condition acquired
by drinking a yard-long glass of
cold draft, and the word trugid
was inked on their chests and
othere extremities to document
their accomplishment.
A notable act of athletism came
as rugger Greg Roach took the
first "roof dive" off of Ralph's roof
into the crossed arms of about 20
catchers. Another great athletic
manuever came an hour later af-
ter attempting to join the trugid
club.
By 5 p.m. we were buzzing and
whigging when we showed up at
Jimmy's. Jimmy was wearing a
Denver tee-shirt and Earlvis
started giving him hell.
Earlvis hadseen all the omens.
He was wearing his number 22
Redskins jersey and he had found
seven pennies on heads before the
game. Earlvis told Guido "Give

As it approached 6 p.m Earlvis
was drunk and he was starting to
stress. In a crazed moment of
lapse of reason and rationale,
Earlvis told his buddy Paul Hoger

dskins pull me through as they
stood beside the keg.

in the Super Bowl. And pretty boy
John Elway had to taste the turf

East Carolina's women's bas-
ketball team saw a three-game
winning streak come to an end
Saturday night at Minges, as con-
ference rival UNC-Wilmington
handed the Lady Pirates a 75-56
loss.
On Thursday, the Lady Pirates
posted their third consecutive
win, 66-65 over Campbell Univer-
sity.
In their win over Campbell,
ECU improved their overall rec-
ord to 8-11. The Lady Pirates led at
the half, 29-28, as they shot 51
percent.
ECU was led by Alma Bethea,
who finished with 23 points and
six rebounds. Monique Pompili
added 16 points for the Lady Pi-
rates and pulled down six re-
bounds. Gretta O'Neal Savage
also added 10 points for ECU.
It was the fourth lose for
Campbell whose record fell to 11-
4. They were led by Julie Skinner
and Regina McKeithan who each
had 18 points.
As the Lady Pirates returned to
conference play Saturday, their
good fortune came to an end.
Shooting just 29 percent, ECU
could not contain the Lady
Seahawks. Wilmington jumped
out to a 4-0 lead in the first min-
utes of play.
ECU was able to take their only
lead of the game, 8-7, at 14:53
remaining in the first half, when
Irish Hamilton hit a 17-footer.
It was all downhill for the Lady
Pirates after that. They suffered a
four minute dry spell as the Lady
Seahawks led 22-11.
A layup by the Pirates' Alma
Bethea broke the streak, but did
not revive ECU.
Wilmington went on to lead 42-
26 at the half.
Thing weren't much better for
ECU in the second half. Wilming-
ton continued to dominate, and
with 9:30 remaining in the game,
led 64-38.
In the last two minutes, the
Lady Pirates outscored Wilming-
ton 8-3, but the effort came too
late, as the Lady Seahawks went
on to win, 75-56.
Only two ECU players scored in
double figures. Bethea scored 13
points and led the rebounding
with 13. Irish Hamilton added 11
points for the Pirates.
Wilmington was led by Char-
lene Page with 23 and Sharon
McDowell, who scored 16 points
and was .the leading rebounder
with 13.
ECU's record dropped to 8-12
overall and 2-4 in the Colonial
Athletic Conference.
Wilmington's conference record
is now 3-3

For a long time, when black

were converted to defensive

position discrimination that
changed ever so slowly with
people like James Harris and Joe
Gilliam.
Then along came Williams from

Both were first-round draft
choices. Williams was installed
almost in desperation by woeful
Tampa Bay, while Elway was
warmly welcomed by more com-
petitive Denver.
Williams took the Bucs to the
NFC championship game one
year. Burdened by the long-

largely dismissed by experts. The
Bucs eventually soured on him,

terminology, it's called counter

pros, it's often known as the
sucker play.
The object is simply to get the
defense moving one way while
the running back goes another.
It's in every team's playbook, but

Bell has been a defensive coor-

was head coach at the University

Jeff Fela, a graduate assistant
football coach on the East Caro-
lina staff, has been elevated to an
offensive assistant coaching posi-
tion, ECU head coach Art Baker
announced Friday.
Fela, who has been an assistant
at the University of Colorado,
Pittsburgh and Rutgers, joined
the Pirate coaching staff in the
summer of 1987. He had been the
tight end and receivers coach at
the Citadel during the 1985-86
seasons for Bulldog coach Tom
Moore.
The 36-year old North Plain-
field, Conn, native has coached
virtually every offensive position
as he was the line coach at Rutgers
in 1983 and the offensive back-
held and JV coach at Pittsburgh.
While at Pitt, the Panthers were
ranked second in the nation in
1980 and won the Gator Bowl.
Fela played collegiate football
at Southwestern (Kan.) College,
where he was team captain and
was a All-Kansas Athletic Confer-
ence choice.
Bell, who was in Greenville
Monday to accept the position,
credited ECU's football tradition
as well as his ties with Baker as the
main reasons for joining the Pirate
staff.
"I have followed ECU football
under coach (Clarence) Stasavich

Intro, to The Short Story
When Caria told me that my date
was a little short, I thought she was
talking dollars and cents, not feet and
inches. So there I was at the door, in
my spiked heels, staring at the top of
my date's head.
All I could think was, how do I
get myself out of this? I could imagine
how my legs would ache if I had to walk
around with mv knees bent all evening.
So to stall for time, while figuring
out how to take malaria, I made us
some Double Dutch Chocolate.
When I brought it into the living
room, I discovered that Garv was
a chocolate lover too. Ahh, a man
after my own heart. Okav, I de-
J cided Id give him a chance. So we
sat down and saw each other face-
to-face for the first time. He had a
nice smile.
After some small talk?I mean
conversation?I discovered that we
both love Updike, hate the winter
weather, and both have minia-
ture sehnauzers. So, we made
a date to introduce Shadow
.nd Schatzi next week.
