Although the AFROTC has
been gi ven a new breath of life, the
new plan calls for a 15 percent
down-scaling in the number oi
graduates rising from the AF-
ROTC programs by 1990. The
reductions will be instated to
conform to a Congress mandate
calling for a trimming of the
number of officer accession, or
officers rising in military ranks.
Commander Patton said the 15
percent reduction will mean that
instead of the approximately
$,500 officers commissioned an-
nually by all the AFROTC pro-
grams there will be approxi-
mately 2,500 college graduates
ascending to officer ranks in the
Air Force.

The search committee for the
replacement of Dr. Elmer Meyer,
who is retiring: this semester after
eight years of service, has nar-
rowed it's applicants to four can-
didates.
Pam Penland. chair of the
committee, said Chancellor Eakin
wanted the committee to conduct
interviews at this time to make
sure students would have the
chance to participate.
Dr. Suzanne Cordon, dean of
students at the University of Ar-
kansas, will be the first inter-
viewed. April 18-19.
The second candidate is Dr.
Alfred Matthews, who will be on
campus April 21-22. He is the
vice-president for student affairs
at Slippery Rock University in
Pennsylvania.
On April 25-26, Dr. Thomas
Goodale, vice-chancellor for stu-
dent affairs at the University of
Denver, will be interviewed.
The final interview is with Dr.
Timothy Brooks on April 28-29.
He is the dean of students at the
University of Delaware.
The committee is setting up in-
terviews for these candidates
with student leaders, according to
Penland. She said the interviews
will give the candidates "an idea
of what is important at ECU
"We're looking for leadership
qualities in handling the pro-
grams of a large, comprehensive
university said Penland.
"Someone who will be able to pull
all the programs together and
continue the work that Meyer has
done
This position directly affects
every student on campus in one
way or another. Whoever is cho-
sen will be involved in all aspects
of student life said SGA Presi-
dent Scott Thomas, a member of
the search committee
Thomas said that for this reason
it is important that students can
attend the interviews. Students
will be able to hear a presentation
campus.
According to Eberher, hun-
dreds of girls contacted him for
two weeks to ask questions and
make appointments for an inter-
view and photo session. On Octo-
ber 30,120 girls showed up at the
Comfort Inn Conference Lounge
to be interviewed and photo-
views by Eberher.
The second session was con-
ducted slightly different from the
first. 'The girls were told that they
could wear what they wanted, but
sity in the calendar to create a
broad base of appeal.
Eberher then had to make the
final cuts down to 15.
The calendars are finsihed now
and on sale at several area stores
by each candidate, have the op- graphed (from the waist up) by
porrunity to ask questions, and
afterwards fill out an evaluation
sheet. Thomas said this makes it
possible for student input to be
considered in the selection, and
for students to "get a feel for the
candidates' philosophies about

tCL Ncwi Bureau
When Dr. Richard R. F.akin is
formally installed as East Caro-
lina University's ninth chief ex-
ecutive April 15, the ceremony
will take place in an historic cam-
pus building named for the
institution's first chief executive,
Dr. Robert Herring Wright.
Wright Auditorium, where the
inauguration will take place, oc-
cupies the largest and most
prominent area in the Robert H.
Wright Building, located near the
.enter of the main campus. The
? year-old red brick building,
with its columned portico and
arched windows, reflects the neo-
classical Revival style typical of
late W20 s buildings on American
college campuses.
Originally known as the "So-
cial-Religious building" or
ampus Life Building' the
structure was Dr. Wright's favor-
ite among the cluster ot buildings
that comprised the campus ot
East Carolina Teachers College.
In his proposal tor funds to con-
struct the center. Fast Carolina's
early leader spoke of his vision ot
a home tor the campus lite" of
the institution.
Since necessary funding to
complete the proposed building
was not forthcoming at once, it
was constructed in two stages.

est, as well as the most versatile
space, was finished first. Remov-
e seating and a flat floor en-

Most Colleges, the survey said,
tend to pick as presidents people
who have been presidents or vice
presidents at smaller schools, or
who were full professors else-
where.
But ' the small supply of
?men and minority (presiden-
tial) candidates who fit the tradi-
?nal mold" suggests many
schools will continue to be led by
hite males, said Madeleine
Green director of ACF's Center
for Leadership Development
"Unless that pool is redefined,
for the short term, at least, women
md minorities will continue to
constitute a very small percentage
chief executive officers the
report concluded.
The ACE survey included re-
sponses from 2,105 chief execu-
tive officers of accredited higher
education institutions.
ACF found that:
White people filled 93 percent
the presidencies, and were
more likely to head doctorate
granting universities and inde-
pendent institutions.
?The median age of the presi-
dents surveyed was 53 years.
Women presidents were twice as
likely to be younger than age 40 as
men.
A majority of the presidents,
60 percent, had served asa college
president or vice president before
their current job.
About two-thirds of all the
presidents were recruited from
the same or a similar type ot
campus as they now headed.
?Most college presidents, 85
percent, were married, but
women presidents were far more
likclv than men to be divorced or
never married.
Green wants to study further
some of the questions the survey
raised.
"For example Green won-
dered, "does the fact that most
presidents are married men mean
that it is more difficult to become
a president if you are single? And
why is it more difficult for a mar-
ried woman to become a chief
executive officer?"
"Are family and career at the
highest levels incompatible for
women? Are married women less
likely to be selected or less likely
to want a presidency?"

in Wright's annex, was remod-
eled in the mid-1960's, during the
tenure of Dr. Leo Jenkins, so the
auditorium was again pressed
into service asa temporary recrea-

True to President Wright's vi-
sion, the building was indeed a
center of campus life, a hub of
activity, in numerous and diverse
ways.
Now that the growth and
spread of the East Carolina cam-

buildings, including ECU's Men-

WOMAN AW THEN I GOT A REA6AN Cfi&KBT POSITION.
To the editor:
This is not so much an appeal to the
students as it is to the faculty, namely
those in the history department and
otherwise who are involved in the
"non-reappointment" of Dr. John
Marshall Carter. I believe "fired" is
the word us laymen might find more
appropriate. The past editorials con-
cerning Carter reflect a genuine con-
viction among the students who have
been affected in a positive way by
Carter both in his teaching and his
person. 1 can do little more at this
point than make a moral appeal since
legally the situation may be nothing
more than an employer terminating
the need of an employee. Regardless
of legalities, morally, it is wrong. 1
believe that it is time for those in-
volved in the decision- making and
initiating of this whole "out of the
blue" ideal to stop hidingbchind their
bold banner of ECU and face the facts
(and not to mention leave their egosat
the door).
Carter is different. Carter plays in a
rock and roll band. Carter's.hair is?
tad longer and more styled than the
average hisory-Joe. Outside of hav-
ing a passion for teaching students
about history and successfully tack-
ling the problem of making it interest-
ing, Carter has many other subordi-
nate interests and projects he engages
in. His look and style of teaching are
different. He takes different paths in
teaching his classes but nonetheless
he gets there in the same given time
span as any other teacher and very
effectivly at that. Even with these
what should be called "assets and
talent and diversity Carter has even
more obvious reasons to stay on staff
in the history department that I don't
have enough space to even list. Carter
has published more and participated
in more research, not to mention been
awarded grant money from Ger-
many, than most professors. His
achievments and credentialsare what
got him the invite to East Carolina
anyway. Isn't he the same person that
you people hired years ago? If not, he
can only be more only by his own
incentive and ambition. No matter
what he has done, it doesn't seem
enough to satisfy the right people.
Yes, 1 do mean those few who must be
rubbed just right to pull the strings.
At this point I must appeal to
Carter's colleagues in the history
department, or any department for
that matter. What makes you think
you won't be the next to be unfairly
eliminated? Are you that secure
about your job? I wouldn't plan too
far ahead for those family vacations if
I were you. In addition to his pub-
lished works, Carter has also had
consistent "outstanding" student
evaluations, not "good" or
"average but "outstanding Does
that count for anything or are the
students, like Carter, just victims of
the political shuffle? Do those in-
volved even care about the students
objections to this adminstrative
move? If so, state your rationale just
for the record and an attempt at some
validity. If you are concerned with
teaching and helping the student
grow then please . . . someone . . .
enlighten me.
The only comforting thought I have
is my belief in the truth and that jus-
tice will eventually prevail eventu-
ally. For the present however, Carter
will take his talents, intellegence,
wisdom, and enthusiasm elsewhere.
His preference is to stay here with his
comfortable life, familiar students,
friends, and family. If ECU looses
John Carter, like they lost the last ter-
minated professor, John Warren, then
the students are the loosers. It is too
late for a Warren plea, but I feel the
students should have more voice in
the re-appointment of professors.
I am just a student but don't forget
there are 14,500 of me who will pay
the price for your decisions. Ulti-
mately, those who have not taken the
objectiveness to review this case and
reinstate Carter will be the ones who
loose. They will loose a valuable asset
to the University that could add di-
versity, vigor and status to the Uni-
versity in the long run.
Yes, I have ruined my chances of
getting an "A" in any given history
course and maybe some other con-
nected courses because I have ruffled
the feathers of the wrong few. That is
not a high price to pay considering the
value of one man's rights and the
justice he deserves. Dr. Carter, you
are one man who has succeeded in
touching the lives of many; that is
more than some will ever be able to
say. I wish you well.

Issues are gray
To the editor:
I am responding to Tonya Batizy's
letter on April 9, 1988. Miss Batizy
you said in your letter, "I am thankful
for the freedom that we citizens of the
United States have established
through the Constitution Later in
your letter you also said, "I will not,
however, congratulate a soldier with
blood on his hands and eternal con-
science Miss Batizy I ask you, would
you congratulate the revolutionary
soldier who fought and killed to make
our great nation free and make it
possible for you to have a constitution
that you so greatly admire?
Sometimes when people get in-
volved in "institutions they tend to
idealize situations to have the best
possible outcome. The world is not so
black and white. There is a lot of gray
inbetween. Miss Batizy you have a
very narrow and limited idea on war
and peace. You are correct when you
state that the U.S. has not been at-
tacked since WWII, but have you sat
down and really wondered why? Our
armed forces are set up, if you believe,
in the principles of our constitution,
as first a deterrent to war, and second
to guard our country and our way of
life.
Miss Batizy, when our military goes
into these small countries do you
really think we go there on the "of-
fense" as you call it? Never, in my
opinion, has the U.S. offensively gone
into a country. We go into these coun-
tries either to get our people out, as
with Grenada andor to help deter
communism not only for our sake but
for the sake of the people who asked
for our help. When a country ask for
U.S. help to turn back aggression or
communism should we turn our
backs Miss Batizy? Have you too soon
forgotten how our nation started out
over 200 years ago?
"Thou shalt not kill" is indeed an
important commandment, but it is
based, as it was then in the Jewish
community, on "just killing" and
"unjust killing War is mentioned
throughout the Old Testament. In the
New Testament Luke 3:14, soldiers
asked Christ what to do Miss Batizy.
Christ told them not to extort money
or accuse people falsely and be con-
tent with their pay! Miss Batizy, be-
fore you bring biblical text into your
argument, be sure you have a leg to
stand on.
In closing Miss Batizy, I recom-
mend you read a book entitled "Just
And Unjust Wars" before you be-
come too set in your idealistic views.
I think afterwards you will n
that your views, as history has shown,
only lead a person to becoming either
an enslaved pacifist or a dead

Even now we don't have the confi-

good friends like Honduras and
Costa Rica aren't exactly granted by-
right. If we don't watch out we will
lose them, too. It is counter-produc-
tive for us to assume that we should
use any "gunboat diplomacy" just
because we 'think' it is in our best
interest. So let us not lean toward the
"Better Dead Than Red" mentality of
the McCarthy era, but let us shine an
example to the world that will make
communism pale in comparison.

Commune takes AIDS test
By PENELOPE WHITNEY
CPS Correspondent
When 10 people live in a house
they talk about a lot of communal
stuff: painting murals on walls,
feeding the neighbor's dog gre-
nades, cleaning the living room. A
lot of talk, not so much action. So
when we agreed to take the AIDS
test together, I kind of doubted
we'd follow through, even
though it was one of our more
important decisions.
None of us are heroin addicts
but we haven't exactly led clois-
tered lifestyles either. And hell,
someone said Santa Cruz is so
incestuous, if you've slept with
one moutain biker, you've slept
with them all.
The next thing I know the 10 of
us are wandering around the
county parking lot at the ridicu-
lous hour of 8 a.m looking for
1080 Emeline St. We found 1050,
1060,1079 and the Mental Health
Services office. But where was
1080?
"I think this is a scam. I think the
FBI just make up this place to
watch who'd show up to take the
AIDS test Ben said.
"Yeah laughed Didi, "they're
probably in the bushes snapping

We finally find it: "WAITING
ROOM ? FREE AND ANONY-
MOUS HIV ANTIBODY TEST-
ING We enter, go to the desk
and get information sheets with
fake names to guarantee anonym-
ity.
Mine is Bob.
Then we sit down on the blue
cushy plastic benches to read the
papers they gave us, and things
aren't so funny anymore. "It's not
who you are, it's what you do.
Individuals known to be at risk
are and it lists IV drug users
who share needles, hemophiliacs
and others who have had blood
transfusions, gay and bisexual
men and everyone else and their
mother who doesn't practice safe
sex and have had muliple sexual
partners of either sex. And the real
heart-stopper for me: sexual part-
ners of any of the above individu-
als.
It goes on to explain what test
results mean. "Positive" indicates
you've been infected with the
AIDS virus and your body pro-
duced antibodies. In most people,
this means an active virus is in the
body and can be passed on to
others. But positive doesn't neces-
sarily mean vou have or will get
AIDS or AIDS Related Complex,
or that you're immune to it.
"Negative" means no antibod-
ies to the AIDS virus were found
in your body at the time of testing.
The obvious conclusion is you're
not infected, right? But you're not
home free yet. It could mean
you've had contact with the virus
but haven't become infected and
haven't produced antibodies. Or
it could mean you have been in-
fected but haven't made any anti-
bodies. It takes most people 2 to 8
weeks to produce them after in-
fection.
I'm mulling over this dreary
information when I hear a voice
calling "Bob My friends nudge
me, "Hey that's you I rise, go
with the nice young man. Didi is
sitting with Ben, face hidden in his
dreads. She looks like I feel.
Down corridors, past closed
doors, open doors, into a small
sterile room used for family plain-
ning. As he tells me about AIDS,
goes over everything in the sheet,
the anxiety deepens.
The the questions start: "Have

That's easy. "No

"Yes The man doesn't smile. His

tangle of paper that says "BOB" at

bisexual or intravenous drug us-
ers?"
I stall as images run past like

halt, focus. A 6-foot-5 skinhead
from Paris, telling me afterwards
"I never get tired of sex. There are
so many things you can do with

was having such a good time.
I suck in air. "Probably He
doesn't look up. Scratch-scratch.
Another crisp X.
"Have you ever had a blood
transfusion?"
Stare at his hand, forget to
breathe. "Yes One more mark.
Three strikes, you're out, right?
The man looks up, tells me the
blood is tested in Santa Clara.
Tells me if it tests positive they
send it to Berkeley to retest. Tells
me, either way, it'll take two
weeks. I schedule an appointment
to get the results. He goes to get
the nurse. "Have a good one he
says as he leaves.
Yeah, right. I don't move.
The nurse enters, friendly, asks
r
how I'm doing. I tell her I hate
blood tests, how a couple of times
nurses haven't been able to find
by vein and went rooting around
with the needle, jabbing, and
turned my arms black and blue.
I don't tell her I hate this par-
ticular test, hate what it means,
how the epidemic is far from over.
Hell, the generation before me
slept around and got herpes and
cold sores. We screw around, get
AIDS and die.
I shut my eyes, still clenching
my fist when she tells me it's over.
I see two vials of dark red stuff on
the table.

Thomas discusses
top candidates
Continued from page 1
Concerning the presidential
candidates Thomas said the cur-
rent crop were "uninspired" and
"lacking in vision She typified
Bush as a man who had "left no
tracks in any of his previous posi-
tions" and said that he seemed to
find "Reagan's coattails just fine
Discussing the Jackson cam-
paign Thomas said he has made
"amazing gains with the disen-
chanted blue-collar worker" and
could no longer be viewed as a
wild card by the political pundits.
Thomas, who attributed
Jackson's success to his ability to
"tone down his firey rhetoric
predicted this new ability has al-
lowed Jackson to become "estab-
lishment enough to pass She
also said Jackson will be a power-
ful force at the Democratic na-
tional convention.
Thomas described the role of
the press as "comforting the af-
fected and affecting the comfort-
able When pressed by a member
of Tuesday's audience on the lack
of objectivity of the press Thomas
said "We didn't bow out of the
human race
She further said she felt that
journalists were for the most part
objective. Thorn? aid that public
officials must be "pinned down
and made accessable" and that it
was the responsibility of the pub-
lic to "demand officials be ques-
tioned and interrogated "and the
job of the press to provide the
"pipeline" for the disemination of
information.

Gay students to use facilities
vCPS) A btter eight vear

the country ended March 2l in a
draw.
In a court compromise, gay stu-
dents at private Georgetown Uni
versih in Washington, D.C, won
? use campus facilities
ile Georgetown officials
had claimed sanctioning a
p-oup on campus would vio-
hool s Catholic prin-
dn't have to grant offi-
recognition to the students.
mpromise concocted

: week o lets Georgstown

' d- District of Columbia
officials had been withholding
because (Jeorgetown, by refusing
to recognize the gay student
group, was violating a district law
banning discrimination on the
basis ot sexual orientation.
"It is gratifying to have Geor-
getown admit that if was wrong
all these years said Lorri lean,
who as a first-year law student
sued the school for recognition of
her lesbian group in 1980.
In a written statement after the
compromise, however, Geor-
getown administrators didn't
confess to being "wrong" at all.
While the agreement
reached in the District of Colum-
bia Superior Court requires
that (Georgetown treat and appro-
priate money for the gay students
the same way they might for other
student groups, it did not force
the school to grant the gay groups
official student group recogni-
tion.
"The university
Georgetown's statement an-
nounced, "will not recognize or
endorse these student groups,
and will be able top make clear
that is does not share their views
Superior Court fudge Sylvia
Bacon in December had ordered
Georgetown to give the gay
groups equal treatment without
officially recognizing them.
Georgetown then appealed the
case to the U.S. Supreme Court,
which in fanuary refused to hear
it. Last week, Georgetown admin-
istrators accepted Bacon's De-
cember ruling.
In years past, gay groups had
claimed the Greogetown case
would help clarify the rights of
homosexual and lesbian student
groups to organize at other pri-
vate campuses around the coun-
try.
The ramifications of the cases
for other campuses ire unclear,
however.
Kevin Berrill of the National
Gay and Lesbian Task F:orce
"ampus Project said the kev to the
(Georgetown compromise was the
District of Columbia's law ban-
ning discrimination on the basis
of sexual preference. While gay
student groups in communities
with similar laws may use thecase
as a precedent, homosexual
groups in communities without
such legislation may find them
selves in a weaker position.
But Berrill pointed out other
courts have ruled shools that
deny homosexual groups access
to funds and facilities have been
found guilty of violating constitu-
tional guarantees to freedom of
speech and assembly.
"The decision is a good one he
said. "Hopefully it will encourge
other gay student groups to seek
recognition

A typical night in the life of the Bad Checks
By KAREN ARD1 N
sjxvui to thr ! js; Carolinian
It hasn't been a good evening
for Robin Mann. Thanks to North
Carolina's ever-changing
weather, an outdoor show at
Greenville's Delta Sigma Phi
house was quickly turned into a
living-room fiasco.
After assembling, disassem-
bling, and then reassembling all
of their equipment, the guitarist
and the rest of his band mates
were allowed to plav, two hours
Kite, on space barely ten feet wide.
Then, five songs into the set, they
were mysteriously told to quit
playing by a high-ranking mem-
ber of the fraternity.
In the meantime, a drunken co-
ed was hi t by a car just ou tsidc the
house. Strange things happen
when the Bad Checks come to
town.
"I don't really know what hap-
pened Mann said later at a
friend's apartment. "They said
something about cops but they
had been there all night and
hadn't given us any trouble I lis
brother Cliff, the band's bass
player, has his own theory on
what happened.
"I think they just didn't like us
he says laughing. "I mean, they'd
probably never heard us and
didn't know what to expect. It was
probably too much for them
The apartment has n .urniture
and Robin and Cliff arc sitting on
the floor where they'll sleep later.
Traveling light often means bum-
ming a place to stay. They don't
look like the instigators of rock
and roll mayhem, in fact they look
like they'd be more at home under
the hood of a car.
Cliff, in fact, bears a strange
resemblance to Comer Pyle. But,
Violinist to play on April 21
CU School of Music Press Release
Robert McDuffie, one of the
most gifted oi American violin-
ists, will he on campus April 21
tor a public concert with ECU
School of Music faculty members
Paul Tardit and Selma Cokcen.
The program begins at 8:15 p.m.
in the AT Fletcher Recital I all oi
the School of Music and is free to
all interested persons.
McDuffie and Tardit will per-
fom three works tor violin and
piano - Beethoven's "Soanta in
G Major Op. 30, 'o. 3; "Ro-
mance in F Minor' Op. 11 by
Dvorak; and Camille Saint-Saens'
Introduction and Rondo Ca-
priccioso Op. 28. following in-
termission, Selma Cokcen will
join them for the perfomance of
Felix Mendelssohn's "Trio in D
Minor Op. 4e for violin, piano,
an cello.
Gokcen's recent career appear-
ances include performances of the
Lalo cello concetto with the Is-
tanbul Philharmonic to sold-out
houses on a recent two-day en-
gagement at the Ataturk Cultural
Center in Istanbul, Turkey. To-
gether they have performed recit-
als at the Spoleto Festival in Char-
leston, S.C and the National
Gallery in Washington DC.
Devoting as much of his concert
season to concerto appearance as
to the recital stage, Mr.
McDuffic's recent orchestral en-
gagements have included the
Chicago Symphony, Atlanta
Symphony, Czech Philharmonic,
Cincinnati Symphony, Baltimore
Symphony, St. Louis Symphony,
American Symphony, and the
Danish State Radio Orchestra.
As rccitalist, he has been heard
in almost every major music capi-
tal of North and South America,
Europe, the Orient and the Soviet
Union. He performs frequently
with Yehudi Mcnuhin in chamber
music concerts, and his first re-
cording is to be released soon for
Angel Records.
McDuffie is a violinist
ECU Music School Press Release
Robert McDuffie isn't just an-
other virtuoso with a prettv face.
Sure, he's done uilliard and Car-
negie Hall and the London
umphonv. And yes, Yehudi
Menuhin is his friend. Rut deep
down, under the white tie and
tails, beats the heart of an all-
American kid.
A kid who played Little League
baseball and varsity basketball in
high school. How many violinists
can boast that?
Next Tuesday, McDuffie opens
the Portland Communitv Concert
Association's 1986-87 season with
a concert at Civic Auditorium.
The series contains six concerts
and sells out annuallv, according
to the association's Wanda
Weiskopf.
McDuffie was 6 when he took
up a glove and then a fiddle in
Macon, Ga. For the next 10 years,
he alternated grounders and free
throws with scales and etudes.
The scales and etudes eventuallv
predominated; these days,
McDuffie lives in New York and
travels with his fiddle 30 weeks a
year.
When McDuffie turned 16, he
realized he'd better get serious
about music, he packed up his
violin and moved to New York to
study in the preparatory division
at Juilliard. For two years, he prac-
ticed four hours a day.
"If anybody doesn't get better
after that, something's wrong
he said. "You'd better get better,
and I did
McDuffie they entered
uilliard's college division to
study with Dorothy DeLay, the
matriarch of violin teachers. He
worked with DeLay for five years;
Shlomo Mintz and Nadja Saicrno-
Sonnenber, two ascending violin-
ists, were colleagues in his weekly
master classes with DeLay.
Before leaving juilliard,
McDuffie auditioned for and was
signed by Columbia Artists Man-
agement, the company that man-
ages Yehudi Menuhin. In 1983,
Menuhin played a concert in Car-
negie Hall to celebrate the 150th
anniversary of Brahms's birth.
McDuffie was asked to partici-
pate.
"The hall was completely full,
there were about 150 seats set up
on the stage McDuffie remem-
bered. "It didn't hit me until the
middle oi the concert-her I was,
sitting next to Yehudi Menuhin in
Carnegie I lall. I could barely con-
centrate but 1 kept my eves on the
music
The following year, McDuffie
played with Menuhin on the
"Great Performers" series at Lin-
coln Center; they continue to see
each other whenever McDuffie is
in London. "He's a wonderful
man and he's helped me a lot,
He's a great friend
Now 28, McDuffie is preparing
for a major career. He's beginning
to appear more frequently with
orchestras and , this year, made a
record oi both David Diamond
violin sonatas for Angel. Dia-
mond wrote his second sonata for
McDuffie, who premiered it at the
Library of Congress. Another
piece that McDuffie frequently
plays is William Schuman's Vio-
lin Concerto.
"I love to play contemporarv
music, especially American mu-
sic. But I don't want to be typecast.
I feel I can use my imagination.
This is a picture of violinist Robert McDuffie. He plays the violin. He
will be playing the violin April 21 in the AJ. Fletcher Recital Hall.
Apathy leads to big trouble
for this Voting ECU student
By JIM LAYTON
Staff Writer
Bored, I pretended to be unde-
cided during the SGA election. I
was now labeled with millions of
other apathetic students who
ironically don't care enough
about their school to vote. Now
dedicated hordes of followers
would try to convert me to their
choice.
Preparing for the ordeal that
was the campaign, I armed myself
with an art fag tool box hoping it
would help if 1 was pursued by
their fanatical hordes of follow-
ers. I was ready for the onslaught.
Before I went off to class, I ate a
tasty, nutritous meal at Jones cafe-
teria. While in gourmet ecstacy, I
perceived a bad omen about the
oncoming day: the infamous
Carolina Blue tray with "Weeb isa
dick on it. I shrieked in horror,
knowing 1 was doomed.
A candidate, that I had seen
before in Jones, came up to me and
smiled grimacingly. fudging by
his face and the fact that I had to
leave for class, 1 knew he was a
candidate. Cornered, I Knit to his
will.
He convinced me of the superi-
ority of his ideals. I le was a man
of character devoted toasideof an
issue, but I was still too devoted to
my apathy.
Eventhough I was caught up in
his aura of majesty and I knew I
had better make a mad dash for
class so I told him he had my vote.
At the door, he gave me a picture
of himself, which I promptly
framed on the way out.
In Poly Sci, I learned how much
my vote counted in any election
and was apalled that so few took
the time to vote. My solution was
to make the voting age 21 so that
all underage people who drink,
would vote as well.
Class over, I prepared for the
trip to the dorm by tying my
sneakers and loading my arsenal
of excuses. I began to walk to-
ward a voting box when a beauti-
ful young woman came up to me,
kissed me on the cheek, and
begged for my vote.
I was in love. As I melted at her
feet, she told me why I should
make the right choice. I had never
done "It" before, but I felt as if I
was being pressured into a deci-
sion that could affect both of us for
a long time. I wasn't ready yet, so
sadly I moved on.
Walking away wounded, a
strange guy wearing glasses came
up to me and told me I did the
right thing. I le went on to con-
vince me there was too much in-
justice in the world and that his
liberal ideas were mv ideas.
J
1 le went on to say that mari-
juana should be legalized, stu-
dents should have more rights,
and that men should have the
right to have babies. Now I was
on the right track- he got mv vote
for Congress!
I could tell I was getting closer
to the dorm when a bald mob
dressed in togas, armed with
flowers and campaign stickers
started chanting my way. I knew
I was in trouble when I tripped
over someone who had tried an
ill-fated escape.
Getting my art fag tool box out,
I walked toward the mob. Armed
only with this, naturally I was
captured . Torturing my naked
body they tried to convert me to
their choice but I resisted. Their
leader told me he was the chosen
one. He was Zeus, King of the
Gods.
A thunderbolt of campaign
stickers was hurled upon my
naked body, but I escaped to
neutral ground, the voting box.
Confident that I was an educated
voter like the rest, I made my
mark and walked away, satisfied.
I have decided never again to
pretend apathy towards voting -
for my own good.

This year it was not held at
Halloween, as planners decided
to takea more original, traditional
turn and hold it in the spring,
within the art school. It's to be
mainly social, catering to ECU'S
entire body. This year, most of the
excitement is due to the costumes
and prizes that are given for the
best costumes. The grand prize to
be given for the best costume is a
waterbed. Door prizes will also be
given out.
The profits madeon the ball will
go back into the art school. 5
will go towards furthering VAF
art scholarships, and the rest into
a fund for art promotions activi-
ties, trips and socials.
The cost of this big event i s 54

Woodstock. It's about two miles

The studio is part of the late
Albert Grossman's mini-empire
in the village of Bearsville, a
hundred miles north of Manhat-

bought a restaurant, homes and
offices and built the studio before

Henson outs life into even more Mu
NEW YORK (AP) ? Over the
iges storytellers have bridged
generational and geographical
boundaries by retelling folk tales,
usually invoking some magic ot
their own to highlight their talents
and suit the audience.
Continuing the tradition in the
rV age is im 1 lenson, creator of
Fraggle Rock "The Muppet
Show and Kermit the Frog and
Big Bird on "Sesame Street

Wending in a few fairly tales

enes ot half-hour specials on
NBC The fourth installment,
i'he Luck Child airsSaturdav.
For Ihe luck Child Heson
his borrowed a griffin from the
brother Grimm and blended
clembents of some early Russian
Ik tales. I'he show's magic is
seamless thanks to the witty script
by British playwright Anthony
Minghella, and, of course, the
Muppet mutations.
The 14-foot-tall taking griffin (a
inking man's Big Bird ? it
claims to be misunderstood) is
ne of the biggest bunches of
wood, wire and widgets ever cre-
ated in the London-based Mup-
pet creature shop With some
h tech and human help, the
people-eating, havoc-wreaking
beast is brought to life by
! lensen's 24-year-old son, Brian.
"Performing the griffin on a
small platform inside its neck,
throwing mv bodv out at different
angles was sort ot like being in an
aerobics class said Brian Hen-
son.
On a smaller scale, he also
"performs" the story teller's talk-
ing dog with an assistant, a tiny
TV monitor, a computer and 13
thimble-size motors controlling
the dog's facial movements. He
says the dog, a stylized blend of
breeds, "has a hard edge, in-
tended to play against the lectur-
ing stive oi the narrator played
by British actor John Hurt in the
title role.
"The Luck Child" borrows
elements from 'The Lucky Child"
and "Marco the Rich and Vasily
the Luckless" in a collection by
Alexander Afanasev. A Russian
ethnographer and lawyer, he
published more than 600 native
folk tales in the mid-1800s, be-
coming the Russian counterpart
to the brothers Grimm of Ger-
man v.
"The Luck Child" also contains
elements of Grimm's "The Grit-
fin" and Tine Devil with Three
Golden Hairs A peasant child is
born and, according to a proph-
ecv, he will one day rule the land,
whose current leader tries to do
away with him. But the luck child
survives, after tricking the griffin.
The sponsors hope viewers will
look for more stories like "The
Luck Child" in books. One of the
show's sponsors, Clorox, also is a
sponsor of the national, non-
profit literacy organization, Read-
ing Is Fundamental, which has
distributed 78 million bocks to
childern since 1966. It's arare
event: a prime-time network
sponsor hoping you'll read more
books!
One such book could be "Folk
Talcs of the Amur" (Abrams),
which includes 31 stories from the
Russian far east. Another is
Afanasev's collection, "Russian
Fain' Tales" (Random House).
The Afanasev book is a stan-
dard, according to Alex Alexan-
der, head of the Slavic Depart-
ment at Hunter College in New
York and an expert on Russia
folklore. It includes Russian ?
sions of universal fairy-tale fig-
ures as well as the Firebird, the
witch Babe Yaga and Ivan theTer-
rible.
Ironically, Russian tales like
these apparently first appeared in
written form, not in their home-
land in their native tongue, but in
Fnland in the 1600s after being
brought out and translated by
foreign travelers.
This was mainly because Rus-
sian written literature was almost
entirely based on church teach-
ings and folk tales were passed by
word of mouth.
The tradition ot borrowing and
retelling to suit different nations
and storytellers continued when
authors such as Gogol, Dos-
toevski and Tolstoy, incorporated
folklore into their works.
For example, although Pushkin
knew Russian folk tales and re-
corded htem, he wrote story
poems based tor the most part on
French translations of the Arabian
Nights, Grimm or Washington
Irving. Pushkin's "Tale of the
( ;oldcnockerel" is simply a re
telling of Irving's "Legend ot the
Arabian Astrologer Yet Russian
and American readers think it's
Russian folklore

Alright all you beach music
lovers, this is your chance. On
Friday night, April 22, during the
5th Annual Great Pirate Purple
Gold Pigskin Pigout Party, which
will be held April 21-23, the
Entertainers will be chiming and
rhyming your favorite beach
tunes under the stands at Ficklen
Stadium.
The show, sponsored by Frito-
Lay, will start up at 9 p.m. with the
attractive. Prepare that arm, and
put the folks in the water.
Leading the list of dunkees for
the booth this year is ECU's
Athletic Director Dave Hart. Also
scheduled to roost in the tank is

???????
Stylin' and profilin' ? Alright
all you tanned ladies, this is your
chance to get into the spotlight
during the Pigskin Pigout
Weekend.
Frito-Lay, in conjunction with
the ECU Athletic Department, is
sponsoring the Fifth Annual
Suntan Bikini Contest. The
contest will take place on
Saturday, April 23 at 2 p.m.
The contest is open to any
female, students or non-students.
Prizes will be awarded to the
top three tans, with the grand
prize being $300. Second prize
money is listed at $125, while the
third-place contestant will receive
$75.
There is no entry fee to enter the
contest, however, contestants are
asked to register for the event
before the last day.
To enter the contest or obtain
more information contact the
ECU Marketing Office at 757-6491
or write to the of f ice at Scales Field
House, Greenville, N.C. 27858.
Down and under ? One of the
main attractions for Saturday's
portion of the Pigskin Pigout
Party will be the annual Dunkin'
Booth. The booth will be open
from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m.
The list of prospective dunkees
is small now, however, once the
news spreads and people get over
their fears of being plunged into
thc H20 the list should be quite
lessons now so as to insure their
safety when coaches from the
CAA wind up and hurl their best
shots.
Other hopefuls for the booth
include local sportscasters Brian
Bailey (no comment), Brad
Zaruba and Lee Moore.
The search is still on for more
idiots willing to get soaked, so the
list could grow and grow and
Free with your I.D. ? The
conclusion to the Pigskin Pigout
Party will be the annual Purple
Gold football intrasquad
scrimmage game. After all, that is
what the whole weekend of
madness is held for anyway.
You've got to give the guys a
chance to show what they have
learned during the long days of
spring practice sometime.
Students with a valid I.D. and
activity card can get into the
game, which has a scheduled 3:30
p.m. kickoff, for free. Cost of the
game for non-students will be
$1.50, if the tickets are bought
before the day of the game.
Tickets on game day will sell for
$2.50.
So, look at it this way, you have
the band Friday night, the fun
around the midway on Friday
and Saturday and the football
game all for free if you are a
student. The only cash you have
to dish out is a meager $3.50 for
the barbeque plate Saturday. The
plates will be served behind the
stadium from 10:30 a.m. until 3
p.m or until all the pork is gone.
Playing all night long ?
Another feature attraction of the
tournament being played on
Saturday at high noon.
Champions of both tourneys will
be awarded with trophies and T-
shirts.
Participants are warned to
come prepared with plenty of
coffee and an ample supply of No-
Doz.
The stars will shine ? This
being the fifth year of the Pigout
Party, organizers decided it
would be a good idea to try and
round up all of the Miller Lite All-
Stars that had been in atttendance
before for a reunion party.
The idea went off very well as
L.C. Greenwood, Ben Davidson,
Boog Powell, Jack "Hacksaw"
Reynolds, Larry Csonka, Conrad
Dobler and Lee Meredith will all
be in attendance for this year's
party.
Thc appearance by Meredith
will be her first, while all the other
All-Stars have been in attendance
at previous Pigout parties.
Thc stars will be featured on
Friday, April 22, at the Hilton Inn
for "An Evening with the Stars
Reunion Banquet Ticket cost for
the dinner, which lasts from 6
p.m. until 9 p.m. is$50 per person.
If that price seems a little too
steep for your budget, have no
fear. The stars will be walking the
midway at the stadium later that
evening from 10 p.m. until the
lights go out and again on
Saturday when they will sign
autographs in the afternoon.

daw
1 lehad two more homerson the
New York Mets' road trip ,nd
then punctuated opening d.w at
Shea Stadium Tuesday with a
rainbow homer that lacked the
majesty of the Montreal homer
but was still impressive.
It's just another home run
Strawberry ho hummed after the
Mets'0 victory over the Expos.
"It means we got one run and got
oft to a good start. That's my job.
To make things happen
The home run came on a 3-2
pitch. Not theone usually lumped
on by a slugger like a 2-0 u' 3 I
With the count 3-2, the batter has
to protect the plate. Yet
Strawberry has developed .is a
hitter to the point where he slugs,
even when he's protecting.
The next time up, he walked
with two out and none on, an
indication that Montreal starter
Paseual Perez was paying more
attention to him, pitching more
carefully, perhaps even
defensi ely. That could be
entirely understandable, given
the cin umstances.
"1 don't feel feared at the plate
Strawberry said. "I feel they just
don't want to make a mistake
against me, that thev want to
make their pitch.
"1 lome ru n hitters take
advantage ot mistakes
Was his homer a mistake, then"
was a slider down, a good
pitch Strawberry decided. "He
beat us with sliders last week
That is exactly the point. Perez
is a slider pitcher and Strawberry
hits the pitcher's pitch for his
homer. That's what makes him so
dangerous.
There was a time when
Strawberry could be had. Pitchers
took advantage of his
aggresiveness at the plate and he
was strikeout bait. Now he seems
less anxious, more willing to wait
for the hittable pitches.
Tor Strawberry, the goals are
only to better last year's numbers
when he hit .284 and stole 36bases
to go with 39 home runs and 104
runs batted in. Better than 39
homers and 36 steals would be 4(1
of each, a feat that no player has
ever achieved.

Strawberry is pitchers' nemesis
(AP) ? There are hitters who
come to the plate with a presence
aabout them that absolutely strikes
fear in the hearts of pitchers.
It is a feeling that no matter
what trickery the man with the
baseball resorts to, they will
handle it. It is a frightening
feeling, especially if you happen
-to be the man with the baseball.
5 Fastball in. Fine. Curves away.
Go for it. Give it your best shot,
Mr. Titcher. The bottom line is'
1sooner or later, you're going to
jha c to throw the ball. And when
(that time comes, it could be
trouble for you.
Andre Dawson had that aura
last year. So did George Bell. And
ever so surely, Darryly
Strawberry is developing it.
Strawberry started the season
'with a monster home run in
Montreal that still might be
traveling except for the roof that
covers the stadium. It was
measured at better than 500 feet
and had players still talking about
it around the batting cage the next
day.
He had two more homers on the
New York Mets' road trip and
then punctuated opening day at
Shea Stadium Tuesday with a
rainbow homer that lacked the
majesty of the Montreal homer
but was still impressive.
"It's just another home run
Strawberry ho-hummed after the
Mets' 3-0 victory over the Expos.
"It means we got one run and got
off to a good start. Thaf s my job.
To make things happen
The home run came on a 3-2
pitch. Not the one usually jumped
on by a slugger like a 2-0 or 3-1.
With the count 3-2, the batter has
to protect the plate. Yet
Strawberry has developed as a
hitter to the point where he slugs,
even when he's protecting.
The next time up, he walked
with two out and none on, an
indication that Montreal starter
Pascual Perez was paying more
attention to him, pitching more
carefully, perhaps even
defensively. That could be
entirely understandable, given
the circumstances.
"I don't feel feared at the plate
Strawberry said. "I feel they just
don't want to make a mistake
against me, that they want to
make their pitch.
"Home run hitters take
advantage of mistakes
Was his homer a mistake, then?
"It was a slider down, a good
pitch Strawberry decided. "He
beat us with sliders last week
That is exactly the point. Perez
is a slider pitcher and Strawberry
hits the pitcher's pitch for his
homer. That's what makes him so
dangerous.
There was a time when
Strawberry could be had. Pitchers
took advantage of his
aggresiveness at the plate and he
was strikeout bait. Now he seems
less anxious, more willing to wait
for the hittable pitches.
For Strawberry, the goals are
only to better last year's numbers
when he hit .284 and stole 36bases
to go with 39 home runs and 104
runs batted in. Better than 39
homers and 36 steals would be 40
of each, a feat that no player has
ever achieved.

UCLA has only two scholarships

Harrick and the Bruins know

MacLean is considered one of the
finest prep prospects in the
country and he has said he would

Lamoureux of Los Amlamitos

verbal comitment to attend
UCLA, but that could change

UCLA Athletic Director Peter
Daiis admitted he had hoped to

didn't happen, mainly because
several big-name coaches were
interviewed but none took the job.
Among them wee North

Orioles dish Rioken Sr.
BALTIMORE (AP) ? Even a
new manager couldn't help the
Baltimore Orioles from setting a
club record for lossesat the start of
the season.
Hall of Famer Frank Robinson,
the first and last black to manage
in the major leagues, was named
as the Orioles manager on
Tuesday and he could only watch
as Baltimore dropped its seventh
in a row, 6-1 to the Kansas City
Royals.
"If I knew what would work I
wouldn't be sitting here
Robinson, 52, said. "I would be
sitting on some island some
place
Robinson might want to be
sitting on an island if the Orioles
continue in the manner that got
Cal Ripken, his predecessor,
tired.
Mark Gubicza and Dan
Quisenberry combined on a two-
hitter as Baltimore managed just
two infield singles and hit only
tour balls out of the infield.
Baltimore has been outscored 49-
8 this season.
"I'm realistic enough to know
that I'm not going to wave a wand
and change everything said
Robinson, who was the major
league's first black manager with
the Cleveland Indians from 1974-
1977. He also managed San
Francisco from 1981-1984.
Robinson, the third black to
manage ? along with Larry Doby
and Maury Wills ? doesn't think
the Orioles need a major
overhaul.
"I don't think the organization
has hit rock bottom Robinson
said of the club that slipped to
sixth place last year just four years
after winning the World Series.
It's just a matter of putting it
together and getting our heads
up
Ironically, Cal Ripken Jr one of
two sons of the fired manager in
the starting lineup, drove in the
Orioles lone run with a first-
inning sacrifice fly.
The Ripkens were in a somber
mood before and after the game.
"My job stays the same Cal Jr.
said. "I'm going to do the same
things no matter who is
managing. When you're in
baseball, you realize it's a
business. The reality of that is that
no one's job is secure. It's just the
way it works.
"As a player, the change doesn't
matter. As a son, I'll keep my
feelings to myself
Bill Ripken, who is normally the
clubhouse clown, was unusually
quiet.
"It's a front office decision, and
I don't get involved in front office
decisions the rookie said before
the start of the game. "Right now
I feel like it will be tough to play,
but when gametime rolls around I
don't think it will be
Last year, Ripken became the
first father to manage two sons
simutaneously in major league
baseball history.
Ripken replaced the retiring
Earl Weaver at the start of the 1987
season, and under Ripken the
Orioles finished sixth with a 67-95
record. It was the Orioles worst
season in 32 years.
General manager Roland
Hemond, who replaced the fired
Hank Peterson Nov. 10,1987, said
Ripken will remain with the club
as a special assistant to the general
manager.
Earlier Tuesday, Ripken Sr
pleaded guilty to a drunken
driving charge, and was
sentenced to three years
probation and required to
perform 100 hours of community
service.
Hemond said the Orioles
decision to fire Ripken was made
Monday, and the manager's court
appearance did not figure in the
firing.
"I'm disappointed, no
question Ripken said by
telephone. "There was no
indication that it was coming. I
was in uniform. I was at my desk
getting ready to write the lineup.
Roland called me to come up to
his office and he told me I was
being relieved
Heafner trims tour
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) ? Vance
heafner, who has been hindered
in recent years by a lower-back
injury that has limited his practice
and playing time, said Tuesday he
will curtail his PGA Tour career to
become director of golf at a North
Carolina country club.
"It's a hard decision, but I had to
think it's a great opportunity for

Observer of Raleigh. "It will give

The former N.C State All-
America will begin his duties
with the Prestonwood Country
Club in Cary on Monday after
competing in the Heritage Golf
Classic this week in Hilton Head

"I never thought I'd be semi-
retired at 33, but the opportunity
came along quicker than I thought
it would he said.
Heafner maintained his exempt
staus on the tour this year and
said he may play as many as 10
tournaments in furture years in
addition to the various Carolinas
PGA Section events.
