Caroline Joyner nurses her arm where she received her mandatory measles immunization. (Photo bv Thomas Walters?Photolab) By TIM HAMPTON New Fditor Students who don't have proper measle innoculation rec- ords will find oiit in class today if they need a shot. Student Health Services is preparing today to immunize an estimated 1,000 ECU students who have yet to receive the man- datory measle vaccine after an initial deadline was extended, according to an ECU health offi- cial. During classes today, course instructors will announce names of students who need the shot. Students still needing the immu- nization will be instructed to visit the infirmary after class and will not be banned from campus as earlv directed by a memo from the director of health services. Last week, following verifica- tion by Pitt County Health offi- ECU Bio-Tech is booming cials of a red measles case involv- ing a part time ECU student, state health officials declared immedi- ate immunization for the ECU community. Since the first case, a second case of measles has been verified. "If you haven't received notice from us (Health Services), don't wait, come by and check your rec- ords' Kay Van Nortwick of the Student Health Serv- ices said Extending the immunization imperative Wednesday, North Carolina Department of Human Resources authorities decided there had not been enough time to vaccinate thousands of students. The extension follows a week of administering vaccine shots to 6,000 students and 800 faculty and staff members whose medical records lacked measle (also called Rubeola) immunization. Since the directive, the Stu- dent Health Services has been busy notifying persons who may be possible carriers of the measle virus. The process began as work- ers pulled health record files of every student, faculty and staff member. After a week of working overtime to mass vaccinate those needing the shots, ECU health officials feel normalcy will return this week. But still, not everyone has had the nccessarv innocula- tions. 'The number (of un-immu- nized students) is probablv under a 1,000, but I reallv wouldn't know until all of our data hasbeen entered into the computers Kay- Van Nortwick, Associate Director for Administration of the Student Health Service, said. Van Nortwick said health employees worked late Wednes- day night to create a final list of un-immunized persons. The list was then disseminated to the Registrar's Office who distrib- uted the names to respective de- partments early this morning. The process has been "a big undertaking" according to Van Nortwick who commended the cooperation the health services has received from volunteers and various sectors of the university in combating the disease, which if not detected as early as it was could have been epidemic. "If you haven't received no- tice from us (Health Services), don't wait, come bv and check your records Van Nortwick said. According to Van Nortwick, another case of the measles has been cited since the first case last week. To ward off the disease, the Health Department has taken protective steps through the Stu- dent Health Services to vaccinate potential virus carriers. As a safeguard, the state offi- cials raised the age of initial vacci- nation to personsl6 months and older. Previously, state law called for innoculations at 12 months. "Since the previous age of vaccination was 12 months old many more people must get vac- cinated as a safeguard. By DAVID HERRING Staff Writer Though still in its infancy, biotechnology is booming in the state - moving from research to commercialization as the number of industries in biotechnology have increased from 32 in 1985 to 83 in 1988. In 1982, ECU implemented a plan for establishing and expand- ing biotechnology programs in the Department of Biology and the School of Medicine. Accord- ing to Dr. Wendell E. Allen, Dept. of Biology, biotechnology is still a young and developing science, having originated around 1973. "This is a good situation for us (ECU) noted Allen, "because we're a new, developing research institution, we are unique in our flexibility and responsive to changes in biotechnology re- search directions. "When industries see poten- tial areas for development they sometimes engage universities to research it so that they can learn about it and decide whether or not they want to pursue it. Older uni- versities such as UNC and Duke committed long ago to their re- search directions making them less flexible In 1983, the North Carolina Biotechnology Center (NCBC) awarded ECU a $30,000 per year grant to buy and upgrade equip- ment in biotechnology-related research, and in 1985 they in- creased their grant to $250,000 per year to be divided between the Dept. of Biology and the School of Medicine. Since 1983 the Dept. of Biology alone has spent more than $1.5 million to expand its biotechnology program. During the summer of '88 the School of Medicine completed the first phase of construction of a biotechnology research building at a cost of $2.5 million, which came from funds genera ted by the School of Medicine. The new building was equipped with ap- proximate $150,000 worth of equipment donated by NCBC. Today, there are more than 50 faculty members at ECU involved in biotechnology programs; rang- ing from outreach programs for N.C. high school science teachers, to cooperative research intern- ships for students, to postdoctoral training in biotechnology-related research. "By the end of this year 400 high school teachers across North Carolina will have received ap- propriate instruction in biotech- nology (from ECU seminars) to present material in an academic and laboratory context to more than 50,000 students by 1990 Allen stated. "There's no reason to believe that the only place to learn is in school continued Allen. "There are many advantages to the stu- dent, ECU, and industries by inte- grating Cooperative employment with classroom study In the program, the student earns a salary while gaining full- time work experience with a reputable biotech company, and most require previous experience for permanent employees. This also gives the student a chance to direct his remaining studies based on whether or not he liked the co-op experience and would like to pursue a career in that area. In order to evaluate an intern, he must be jointly supervised by a faculty member and a company employee. This is a mechanism by which the university becomes aware of the research interests of biotech companies and stimulates continued interaction between those companies and ECU. The Dept. of Biology offers a See DNA, page 2 As of today, an estimated 1,000 students have yet to go through this almost painless process of being immunized for measles. This upperclassmen seems to enjoy the shot. (Photo by Thomas Walters?Photolab) More slated for future Construction needed to grow Work on Erwin building, near to Mendenhall, is only one of the many on-going construction projects on campus. Yet is more to come as ECU looks to the future. (Photo by Thomas Walters?Photolab) By STEPHANIE FOLSOM Managing Editor The construction underway on main campus may be the most obvious reflection of ECU's growth and improvements, but according to Robert Webb it is only a fraction of what is actually being planned. Webb, the director of physical plant and architectural planning, said in an interview last Tuesday that many problems are already being researched and some im- provement projects will begin immediately. Other projects still await funds. The road conditions on cam- pus were one of the first things Webb said he noticed when he came to ECU last semester. Funds have now been allocated and a preliminary study is underway. Actual paving, gutter and curb repairs on the worst areas are scheduled to begin this summer. Construction could not begin ear- lier because of the constant traffic flow. The two parking lots to be built on Ficklen Drive and the expansion of a parking lot on College Hill Drive will begin con- struction within 30 days, accord- ing to Webb. The design is under- way and a contractor has been selected. The lots allow for 928 new student parking spaces. A master plan looking at all the problems facing ECU's growth is also underway. Webb said everything from poor light- ing on campus to turning the stu- dent store area into more of a mall area is being considered. Prob- lems will be tackled one by one as money is allocated. An engineering firm is al- ready conducting lighting stud- ies. Webb said, "The bottom line of that study will tell us the worst areas on campus. We'll make an effort to solve the worst problems first A committee is currently dis- cussing the student recreational facility which will house ex- panded space for basketball, aero- bics, and weight machines. Ap- provals still need to be made by the state legislature and then an architect will be hired early this summer, according to Alfred Matthews, vice chancellor of stu- dent affairs. Actual construction on the 18-month project might begin as early as the summer of 1990. ECU's School of Medicine is also experiencing growth. The bio-technology building, which was officially completed last July, still awaits the infilling of its ground floor. The rest of the building is already occupied but the ground floor, which will be a pediatrics outpatient clinic, will not be completed for another six months. A birthing center, a joint ef- fort between the School of Medi- cine and Pitt Memorial Hospital, is scheduled for completion by late February. Plans are also underway to add a third floor to the Brody Building. THE EAST CAROLINIAN IANUAR1 26 1989 Is Chlamydia contagious? I recently found out that 1 have chlamydia.

In "Shake, Rattle and Roll- Wheelchair Dance Dr. Boni Boswell, an adapted physical education professor, and Mike Hamer, an English lecturer who was paralyzed in a 1985 diving accident, perform a creative dance number they choreo- graphed especially for the video 35i Harrier's wheelchair is the main focus of their unusual yet sensual performance. At one point Boswell sits on Hamer'slap, and they embrace; at another, she stands on the seat of his chair. "People in chairs need to have that kind of physical interaction with able-bodied persons Boswell said. "They're not going to break when you touch them. If thev fall out oi their chairs, you just put them back Another objective of the slow sequence is to encourage creativ- ity in the disabled. "With the duet we wanted to show that vou can trv something new, because I had certainly never done any kind of choreographed dancing before Hamer said. "But after we went social dancing a few times, we were tempted to try something else Getting other disabled per- sons out on the dance floor is ulti- mately what Boswell and Hamer hope to accomplish with the video. "It's a wonderful way to get exercise, as much for the able- bodied as for the disabled Hamer said. The 15-minute video took more than a year of meetings, rehearsals and filmings to com- plete. Except for the sound, which was recorded and mixed by Au- dio Arts of Greenville, the video was produced entirely on campus by the Center for Health Sciences Audiovisual Communication (CHSAC). Funding was provided by the College of Arts and Sci- ences and the Pitt County Re- gional Rehabilitation Center. The film ; 'urcs five people in wheelchairs, both paraplegic and quadriplegic, dancing at a local nightclub with able-bodied partners. The dancers also make encouraging comments and help- ful hints throughout the film, such as "Make sure there's a lot oi room. I don't want to go some- place where people are falling in my lap and spilling beer on me Boswell, who plans to use the film in class, and Hamer see no end to possibilities for the video. im Barrett, manager of therapeu- tic recreation at Pitt County Memorial Hospital, said he will show it during some of his treat- ment sessions. "Dancing isn't necessarily for everybody, but neither is a wheelchair track he said. This is an alternative for people who enjoy music. This is a video that shows yes you can Dr. Ulrich Alscntzer, chair- man oi ECU's Depar'ment of Physical Medicine and Rehabili- tation, said the video will be useful as an "eye opener" and plans to show it to residents and at professional meetings. "This is an activity that can be pursued by paraplegics and quadriplegics that isn't immediately obvious he said.

Sometimes more than Shakespeare thought, according to the Reverend Jesse Jackson. Jackson, the most promi- nent black American (except per- haps Bill Cosby) wants to replace the racial identifier "black" with "Afri- can-American On the surface, this proposal seems useless ? after all, changing a name won't change the attitudes of non-blacks towards blacks. But that's not the reason for the name change. The chief reason is that blacks need a starting point to get in touch with the African part of their heritage ? not to be ashamed of it. The name change is the first step in establishing a sense of racial solidarity, wnich vould, among its other benefits, help to reduce black- vsblack crime. Besides being truly beautiful and rich, African culture is important to manv blacks. That's hard for many Americans of any race to under- stand, giver America's basic indif- ference to history and heritage. Jackson's plan is to promote a greater awareness of blacks' shared heritage, and therefore to change the attitudes of blacks towards them- selves and each other. The term "African-American" is more than just a focal point for a new identity. Implicit in its use is the admission that blacks are yet search- ing and struggling for the unity they need to survive in a society that is still racist. The more obvious forms of racism have largely been elimi- nated, but the subtler kinds still Hourish ? the kinds that keep blacks largely out of advertise- ments, off oi television (Cosby not- withstanding) and out of many jobs. Why not just use the term "American"7 Because, frankly, nei- ther white nor black Americans are vet ready to give up racial classifica- tions. As long as c lassifications exist, "Afric in-American" may well be the Ix st of the bunch. I Foruin The East Carolinian welcomes let- ters expressing all points of view.

I'm sure that those of us who unconsciously throw trash out of our car windows wouldn't do it if they knew that these materials don't break down and decompose into the earth. This trash will sit there until it is picked up and disposed of properly. Even more important are cigarette butts. Cigarette butts are not only non- decomposable, but they pose a great threat to birds when they, mistak- ingly, swallow them as worms and painfully choke to death. Or they use the butts as nest building material and the fiberglass in the butts causes the egg shells to soften and eventually deteriorate, all because we stomped out our butts rather than took a few extra steps toward the nearest ashtray or garbage can. Fortunately there is a wonderful solution to this problem. Across North Carolina people are cleaning up this mess a mile at a time. It's called Adopt-A-Highway and it entails adopting a mile of a road amdt taking care of it. I've seen it going over well in Wilmington and Chapel-Hill. In Wilmington a lot of merchants are getting involved and in Chapel-Hill the Greek system is playing a major role. I know a lot of us who live in Greenville don't really care about our environment because it's not where we call home, but this apathy has got to stop because on a much larger scale this is earth and to all of us it's the only home we have. Anyone interested in Adopt-A- Highway can call Allen Lewis in Washington, N.C. 946-3689 David Weathers Jackson Senior English Boycott "Troop" To the editor: My Fellow, African American Brothers & Sisters, In recent months you have been encouraged not to buy certain manu- factured goods because they support apartheid. Many are unaware of ex- actly which companies favor white supremacy against our brothers and sisters in South Africa. Many compa- nies have become successful through the supporters of racial discrimina- tion. Before the newest marketed name becomes a part of your daily wear, I feel it is my duty as an African American to put it to a stop. The highly acclaimed "TROOP" wear was founded by the white supremacy group known as the "Klu Klux Klan Racism in disguise is what I call it. The letters T-R-O-O-P stand for 'Total rule over oppressed people Through my eyes, this hasbeen one of the biggest cover ups in fashion his- tory. I encourage my brothers and sisters here at ECU to support me in my protest against racism by stop wearing, buying and supporting Troop wear. Nara Bost Sophomore Art The Measle Blues To the editor: I am so disgusted right now with certain things involved with this "measles epidemic" on campus. First let me say that I am aware that ECU officials did not bring this on themselves and that the Health Department has forced this vaccina- tion of students on the university. But the responsibility of notifying those students who need the vacci- nation is totally up to the unviver- sity. The problem is with notifying the fi fth-year seniors. This past Tues- day a friend of mine persuaded me to go check with the Student Health Center to see if we needed to get "the shot When I arrived at the infir- mary, the nurses told me that since I had registered before 1985 ? when the measles vaccination was not required for admisssion to the uni- versity ? I had to show proof that I had been vaccinated sometime in the last 23 years, or stand in line for a shot that day. If I had neither records of vaccination or "the shot" before 8 p.m. that night, I would not be per- mitted to attend class the next day. So, of course, I stood in line and got the shot no big deal. But what about the unlucky seniors that didn' t happen to wander into the infirmarv to find out all this information? How were they supposed to find out if they needed the vaccination? The next thing that made me furious is the "Public Safety Depart- ment" had a special "officer" in charge of writing parking tickets to r.ll the students who had no choice but to park illegally in order to get their required vaccination! Yes, fac- ulty was ticketed as well! What is wrong with these people? Do thev plan this in secret SECL'PY meetings (Strategic ECU Parking Violators)? Why can't they leave us alone for just thisone time? Or please show upand direct traffic in the area: 1 urge all who got tickets to protest them ? It's just not fair. I'm sorry 1 had to get so mad at tins but I've just had enough!

What is Bush going to do about the poor? By FRED BARNES New Republic If recent experience is any guide, sometime be- fore next November the president and Congress will hammer out a plan that will bring the budget deficit down another notch or two. It probablv won't be enough to meet the Gramm-Rudman deficit target of $100billion, but it will be enough to signify progress. The question is: How wrenching will the proc- ess of reaching agreement be? What price will the economhave to pay? How seriously will the new administration's effectiveness be undermined? How much more disillusioned with the government will the American people become? These questions are for the new president to answer. There are two paths President Bush can follow. One option is to hold firmly to his "No new taxes, period" pledge. The journey down this road would be long, arduous and acrimonious, and would lead to stalemate and confrontation. It would probably involve another revision of the Gramm-Rudman targets, some even phonier than usual accounting, and only a modest amount of true deficit reduction. Worst of all, the president and Congress would be condemned to retrace these steps next year. The second option, superficially, is also unat- tractive: After months of telling us to read his lips, Bush would have to eat his words, and call for a tax hike. A bit awkward, to be sure. But in the long run this may be the only route to lasting economic health and ? read our lips ? re-election. If Bush hopes to make good on his campaign promises to protect Social Security and devote more resources to the environment, education, prisons and child care, some of the remaining programs will have to undergo savage cuts. And as long as the Democrats wisely refuse to be the first to talk about raising taxes, they will be unable to fashion an alternative proposal. As has happened in three of the past four years, a budget stalemate will develop. The frustration level will rise on both sides. The new administration's effective- ness and the new president's leadershipabilities will be called into question. By June or July, Washington will be malaise city. Budgetary gridlock cannot continue forever. Two things- ? theGramm-Rudmanlawandthedebt ceiling ? virtually guararei that any impasse will be broken, one vvav or another, around autumn. First, i n mid-August the Office of Management and Budget will issue a report showing that deep cuts in military and domestic programs will occur in mid- October, in compliance with Gramm-Rudman lim- its, i f an agreement on deficit reduction isn't reached. Sometime in September, the government will exhaust i ts cu rrent authority to borrow. Then, unless Congress increases the ceiling, the government will have to begin living within its tax receipts. Such "cold turkey" budget balancing would involve a wrenching adjustment for both the economy and those who depend on the government for their sus- tenance. Congress will raise the debt ceiling. But powerful fiscai conservatives in Congress ? Gramm and Rudman, among others ? will insist that the raising of the debt ceiling be linked either to a budget package that cuts the deficit or to deficit- cutting procedural reforms. Liberals will opt for the former. The subsequent negotiations will be pro- tracted, and by the time the budget is squared away, Congress and the president will both have spent months appearing ineffectual and blaming their impotence on each other. Bleak as it is, even this scenario could prove to be kinder and gentler than reality. For it assumes that foreign lenders, the Federal'Reserve Board, and domestic financial and stock markets are willing to put up with a prolonged budget battle. If they aren't, and interest rates rise substantially or thedollar or stock market plummets, then the new administration could find itself bargaining with Congress from a position of weakness. Adverse market reactions might also induce a recession that would end Ronald Reagan's long Morning in Amer- ica and leave the administration in a much deeper hole and the deficit much less tractable. The second path available to Bush is in some ways more daunting han the first, but it has the advantage of not leading to political oblivion or gradual economic ruin. It would involve a sustained effort to construct a multi-year deficit reduciton package that included tax hikes as well as spending cuts. Clearly this journey couldn't begin immedi- ately. Bush won the right, in fact the obligation, to present Congress with a oudget that achieves the deficit targets without tax increases. But should this proposal prove unacceptable to a majority in Con- gress, as it almost certainly will, the president should quickly take the lead in fashioning a compromise. Of course, the mere thought of George Bush leading on the tax issue would be enough to enrage many on the Republican right. But a majoritv of thoughtful Republicans have concluded that some tax increases are inevitable if the deficit is to be re- duced to manageable proportioP: To make a tax hike more palatable to conserv; lives, Bush could make it contingent on Congress's holding spending below specified levels. Democrats would undoubtedly revel in Bush's chagrin if he reneged on his central campaign prom- ise. However, they wctM soon find that there was surprisingly little political hay to be made. After raising taxes, Bush could probably convince the public that the Democratic alternative would have raised them by more. And, anyway, in the long run Bush will profit from reneging if a multi-year defici t reduction pack- age allows interest rates to fall and the economy to continue expanding. In that event, Democrats may have to sign up for tours if they want to see the inside of the White House before the turn of the century. n ib m oi ' THE EAST CAROLINIAN JANUARY 26. 1989 5 Classifieds FOR RENT ROOMMATE NEEDED: Immediately.

While nothing is official yet, a look at the budgets now being considered by state legislatures, regents and trustees around the country suggest that the price of college will be significantly higher next year. Oregon Gov. Neil Goldschmidt, for example, sub- mitted a budget Jan. 4 to his state legislature that, if passed, would translate into a 5 percent hike for most states students and a 10 percent hike for students at the University of Oregon and Oregon State University. "A 6-to-8 percent increase is as good a guess as any7' for stu- dents nationwide, said Art Hauptman, an education consult- ant to the American Council on Education, after scanning such early indicators. Tuititons for 1988-89 rose an average of 7 percent over 1987-88, according to the College Board. The inflation rate in the United States?the increase in prices for general items from cars to shoes?was "only" 4 percent during the same time. As a result, the average 4-year public school student is paying $1,483 in tuition this year, while students pay an average $6,457 to go to private 4-year colleges, $750 to go to public 2-year colleges and $4,415 to go to private 2-year campuses, the College Board fig- ured last fall. Some bills for next fall are already set. Baylor University students will pay 8 percent more next year. The University of Northern Iowa's prices will go up 7 percent for in-state students, 9 percent for nonresidents. At Utah State, in- state students will pay 9 percent more. At Duke University in North Carolina, rates will rise 7.1 percent for undergrads. The great majority of schools just now are beginning to an- nounce their tuitions as legisla- tures ponder budgets and cam- pus officials figure out how much they need to charge students. The trend, however, is unde- niably upward. Initial proposals would have students at the 13 University of Wisconsin campuses paying 11- to-12 percent more next year. Loyola University of New Orleans officials are considering raising tuition by as much as 18 percent next fall. "It is fair to say that there will be a raise in the tuition rate for fall '89 said Dr. Maurice Scherrens, vice president for finance and planning at George Mason Uni- versity in Virginia. "Yet I am cur- rently uncertain of the exact per- centage of increase Colleges get the money they need to operate from cash gifts, earnings en their stock portfolios, government grants and, most im- portantly, from the federal gov- ernment, students in the form of tuition and state legislatures. When legislatures don't ap- propriate enough money, cam- puses normally turn to students to try to make up the difference. "State appropriations have been okay in the last few years the ACE's Hauptman suggested, and public colleges consequently haven't had to impose the 9 or 10 percent more in tuition next fall, he added. Even relatively healthy economies such as those in New York, California and Massachu- setts are suffering from tax reve- nue shortfalls and have less to appropriate to their colleges. "One quick way of closing those shortfalls is to raise tuition Hauptman said. George Mason's Scherrens added campuses need more money, too, to pay faculty mem- bers as much as they could make in private industry, to add staff and to build and maintain their structures. George Mason, for one, is trying to finance a new science building, a new dorm and a new student union. Students, naturally, are not thrilled by the prospect of higher tuition. "I'll have to get a higher pay- ing job said University of Arizona junior Karen Bonz. "It's really hard unless you've got a silver spoon or something If Loyola of New Orleans ac- tually imposes an 18 percent hike, it'll drive everyone except "the rich, stupid kids who cart get in anywhere else" off campus, stu- dent government representative Tara Loomis warned. "The tuition increases, espe- cially this year, are bullshit fumed University of Utah student Vice President Grant Sperry. "Students are having to work 20,30, even 40 hours a week to pay for tuition said Brad Golich of the Arizona Students Association at a November rally protesting a proposed $156 tuition hike at Arizona State University. "How the hell can we do in school if we're working all the time?" In December, the regents who set the tuition for ASU, Northern Arizona and the University of Arizona, said they were im- pressed enough by the outpour- ing of student anger over the pro- posed raise to lower the hike to $84. Golich seemed satisfied, not- ing some increases may be inev- itable. "The reality is that (tuition cuts) would be an incredible amount of revenue loss for the university system. You've got to look at economic reality. Remember Your Orientation Experience? Join PREVIEW 89 Become an Orientation Assistant and create a memorable experience for the New Freshmen.

The show, which will be exhibited until Feb. 3, is the latest of the regularly scheduled faculty exhibitions and features 31 instructors from the School of Art. Occupying the front area of the gallery are works by sculptors Robert Edmiston and Norman Keller. Edmiston's pointed steel "Landscapes" are textural and material opposites to the Keller piece, a work entitled "No More Stick ArtA Farewell to Faggots which is constructed primarily of wood and, yes, sticks. On the sur- rounding walls of the gallery hang paintings by Clarence Mor- gan, Gabrielle Lablousky, Ray Elmore, and Marilyn Gordley, as well as a tapestry by Janet Fischer and a series of monotypes by Michael Voors. Painters dominate the show. The departments of ceramics, tex- tiles, and wood are hardly repre- sented and there are no examples of environmental design. A striking example of wood- work is a music stand by Terry Smith. The stand, which is classi- cal in design, displays the natural beauty of the unpainted wood. Also notable of the "craft arts" are works by metals instruc- tor John Sattcrfield. Satterfield's jewelry designs include a neck- lace of sterling silver, titanium, and stainless steel as well as three anodized aluminum pins dved a variety of colors. Another anodized aluminum construction is a small creature entitled Is a Many Splendored Thing" which resembles an art deco sphinx.

Deli hosts benefit for disaster victims A Day in the Life of an Urban Planning Major Kury interns for Pitt Inspection Dept. By ALICIA FORD Suft Writer By DEANNA NEVGLOSKI Stiff Writer Tonight the New Deli Restau- rant will host a benefit concert for the victims of natural disasters. The concert will feature three lo- cal acts: The 1A. Hooker Band, the Swamp Gypsies and Mike JUghtnin' Wells. Proceeds from the concert will go to the Interna- tional Red Cross and the Quixote Center, located in Maryland. The proceeds will be divided evenly between the two organiza- tions. The International Red Cross will use the money to aid the vic- tims of the tragic Armenian earth- quake. Tine Quixote Center will aid the victims of Nicaragua, vhere Hurricane Joan ruined the city oi Bluefields last October. Mike Hamer, an English pro- fessor at ECU as well a member oi the Swamp Gypsies, is one oi the many musicians responsible for organizing the concert. Hamer and other fellow musicians have been putting on benefit concerts for 12 vears to aid those victims of natural disasters and personal hardships, long before Live-Aid and Farm-Aid were formed. According to Hamer, these benefit concerts are dutiful in providing victims with a chance to rebuild their lives after a trag- edy occurs. Hamer said he be- lieves musicians have a way of bringing peoplearound the world together to help those who are in need of care. He also said he trusts both organizations to which the money will be given; stating that the monev given to the Quixote Cen- ter will be administered through the local churches to avoid any political ties. The local acts are well-known and respected musicians throughout North Carolina. The musicians among the three acts have been performing for a while, although the two bands on the bill, the Swamp Gypsies and the LA. Booker Band, are fairly new. Mike Lightnin' Wells tours around North Carolina and vari- ous parts oi the country. The L.A. Booker Band plays traditional and country music, as well as original ballads penned bv vocalist and guitarist Linda Roberson. The rest of the line up features Amy Hazard on flute, guitar and vocals; John Booker on bass, guitar and vocals; and Lane See NEW, page 8 In August, 19SS Pitt County issued its first comprehensive the planning department, land use plan for those portions of the county outside of cities and towns.

It really is in- valuable experience Rhodes said. Kury has satisfied his require- ments for his major and is cur- rently working on his double concentrations in land use and real estaterecreation. His Mon- day morning starts out with Rec- reation Programming and De- sign, which deals with planning recreational facilities such as health spas, boys clubs, parks, and hotel recreational activities. As a requirement for the course, he has to spend 25 hours doing volunteer work for one of these organizations. After recreation class, it's off to Weather and Climate where Kury studies what factors con- tribute to the weather. 'This is an interesting class because you learn what make one climate in one area differnt from another. The climate is an important factor in determining a land use plan for a particular area he said. Kury also takes a Geographic Images class that focuses in the structure of geographic images and the processes of their forma- tion. Monday night, he takes a class in the history of jazz music to satisfy a fine arts requirement. In addition to his internship and other classes, Kury holds down a part-time job waiting tables at Annabelle's Restaruant and Pub. He has been at Annabelle's for over a year and usually works four or five nights a week.

(BP) ? ffjie small college town of dteenville was gripped by terror hfs week as an epidemic out- break of measles! The disease, which gives its victims flu-like symptoms that ?ventually lead to a searingly pafoful, agonizing death, "sprang ut of nowhere said Dr. Nod thered. "Although every other cam- pis in the UNC system had out- breaks of the measles in the past month, we had no reason to be- lieve it would ever reach Greenville, " he said. "Therefore, we didn't bother to inform the students That misjudgement may cost thousands of students valuable class time. Any student not vacci- nated by Wednesday at 5 p.m. was kicked out of school. As a safety precaution, their belong- ings were sterilized and burned and then the outcast students were subjected to ridicule and sarcastic comments. Students were first notified of the crisis in a letter sent out from the university. The letters, sent Tuesday night without sufficient postage, read, "Dear student, If you don't get your ass innocu- lated by Wednesday at five p.m you're outta here. Sincerely, Your friends at the Student Health Services The signature was post- scripted with their motto, "Any- thing for you, the students who pay our salaries with your man- datory health fees Bothered said the disease attacks the cells of the body by viciously opening up the cell lining. This rupture, through which all the precious cell juices can flow right out of, is called a meas. If a person has too many meases, blood flow to the brain is cut off. Once this happens, the victim may become erratic and irra- tional, two words that mean al- most exactly the same thing. They may begin wearing shorts in the wintertime, or voting Republican. These irrational acts are called measles, and once the victim gets to this stage, there follows a rapid slide into the Great Beyond. The patient then begins to decay rapidly, not unlike a leper in time-lapse photography. Then, an inexplicable craving for raw slug antennae is observed. 'This craving is really quite natural Dr. Bothered explainsThe human body knows what it needs to combat disease and slug eycstalks contain 78 of the USDA recommended daily allowance of protein "At this point Bothered said, "There is only one known cure ? lots of rest and plenty of Campbell's Eyestalk & Mucous Soup. It is somewhat distilled by the water and tomato juices, but still has plenty of protein and it's Mm-mmm-mmm good Freshmen trampled in mob ! GREENVILLE, N.C. (BP) ? Ten students are victims of the Great Measles Scare of 1989 and they didn't have the measles! The 10 freshmen, four fe- males and six males, were walk- ing along the sidewalk to the Stu- dent Health Center. Suddenly, they were trampled to death by a mob of over 200 other freshmen. Panicked by letters saying they needed to be vaccinated or they would be kicked out of school, the mob didn't realize they were killing their own schoolmates. The ten students were found hours later, after the initial wave of innoculations stopped. A pass- ing motorist helped them inside the infirmary,but it was now4:55, and the doctors were going home. The physicians pointed to the posted office hours signs, and then walked to their cars discuss- ing the ratio of hypochondriacs on a college campus as opposed to the real world. All ten students died of expo- sure overnight, their bodies blocking the entrance to the Health Center. The passing mo- torist was nowhere on the scene when health personnel returned to work the next day. Dr. Keepya Waiting com- mented on the untimely deaths of the freshmen, saying, "A tragedy like this should never have hap- pened. If only students would learn when the regular operating hours are for the infirmary, this sort of tragic waste of human life would never occur "But in a situation like this, all we can hope for is that these stu- dents set an example for the rest of the campus. If everyone takes their brave sacrifice to heart, then everyone will come out a win- ner he said. The infirmary is planning a new advertising campaign, using a photo of the deceased students. Posters and TV ads will show their frozen corpses outside the Health building, with the slogan "Know Your Infirmary Hours prominently displayed. A spokesman for the Campbell Soup Corporation said that the soup firm would be happv to print up new office hours posters and distribute them around campus. "Thev'U be Mm-mmm-mm office hours after we print them This person didn't get his measles shot, and now he's decaying rapidly into a mess of fleshy rot. Eat your soup, kids! Soup company is fighting measles ! Measles wiped out Atlantis! GREENVILLE, N.C. (BP) ? Medical authorities now hint that the Greenville Red measles epi- demic mav be the remnants of the J disease that wiped out the entire population of the lost continent of Atlantis! At least, that's what Dr. Hans Onme claims. He says he has proof that the virus started over 40,000 years ago and led to the destruction of Atlantis! "Ze bacteria, first zey ate out ze victim's brain, zen his body and zen his clothes and ze ground ze were standing on Onme said. "It could happen right here, history could repeat itself he warns. The measles probably started out as a dish culture in an Atlantean scientist's lab, Onme theorizes. Through some incred- ible circumstances, much too complicated to explain or believe, the culture got contaminated. "Zen, it probably mutated. I y probably, because I wasn't ze're, so I don't know for sure. Ze mutated strains probably got loose and started infecting ze population, " Onme said. Ze ? I mean, The, actual infection could have occurred through sexual transmission, cas- ual contact, or thinking porno- graphic thoughts, he goes on to state. Once the disease took hold of the victim, they were history, "and so was the ground zey was walking on Onme adds. "So once everybody got ze disease, ze whole continent probably started to erode, and zen nobody had nowhere to live. Zey all fell into ze water and had to swim around a lot. It's very, very hard to walk in ze water he explains. "Also, your hairdryers don't work so good under ze ocean Onme theorizes that the dis- ease lay dormant for centuries. " Maybe one or two doggies kept it alive every generation. Zen when you have zat squirrel man run- ning around, all ze little doggie glands get excited , and zen zey start releasing measle germs he said. The only cure for the so- called "Red Plague is plenty of GREENVILLE, N.C. (BP) ? January is National Soup Month and Campbell Soup Company is taking advantage of the Greenville Measles Scare to drum up some new business. Letters sent to all students needing a measles vaccination were sent on Campbell Soup sta- tionery, which displays the Campbell's logo in red and gold. When held backwards to a lamp, the words "Campbell's heals measles" can be seen. Spokesman for the nation's largest soup corporation, Yesman Sirr, said the accusation is totally untrue. "We would never put backward messages in anything we do not even the alphabet soup. We gave ECU that station- ery because we care about those poor, afflicted, upper-middle class income bracketed students he said. Meanwhile, Campbell's soup posters arc appearing all over the ECU campus. Much of the monc needed to buy large quantities o? the measles vaccine was donated by the soup company, but ECU denies that any sort of public rela- tions deal has been struck. Gotnu -ige, public rela- tions man i ECU said, "The Campbell's people were very generous to help us out in time of need. We cannot pay them back for all they've done, but we would like to publicly express our grati- tude to them in the press In a totally non-related story, the ECU Image Marketing Committee announced today that East Carolina will no longer be known as the ECU Pirates, but as the ECU "Country Kids Pee Dee the pirate has been dropped in favor of two "charm- ing, country children who wear lots of plaid Image said.

State RALEIGH (AP) ? The chair- fen of the University of North ( arolina Board of Governors will meet with the panel's vice chair- man and top staff to consider other the board should investi- gate allegations against North irolina State's basketball pro- am. 1 don't think the board uld lie dormant with the con- tinued charges that are flying Robert L. "Roddy" Jones, a Raleigh developer who serves as chairman oi the 32-member ?ard, siid Tuesday. He said he planned to hold e meeting within 24 to 36 hours. On Jan. 12, the UNC Board of ?vernors - which sets policy for North Carolina's 16 public uni- ?ersities - decided that NCSU Chancellor Bruce R. Toulton, aided by the state Attorney General's Office, should direct the investigation of the athletics pro- gram. But Jones said Tuesday, "1 am concerned that the matter has not seemed to clear itself up anymore than it has. While I still don't be- lieve a lot of the heavy allegations, 1 do think that it is going on longer than it should go on The allegations stem from promotional material and a dust cover for the book "Personal Fouls which is scheduled to be published next month. Written bv Peter Golenbock, the book reportedly contains charges that Wolfpack players received cars and jewelry, and that three grades on the transcript of a former NCSU basketball player had been changed to keep him eligible. Valvano and Poulton have denied the allegations and have asked the NCAA to investigate. A few UNC board members had misgivings about leaving the inquiry in the chancellor's hands, noting that he had been accused of knowing about the grade-change allegations, The News and Ob- server of Raleigh reported. But Jones, and other key members of the panel, countered at the time that athletic matters on UNC campuses typically are dele- gatcd to individual chancellors. Only rarely have UNC sys- tem officials intervened in mat- ters of athletics. Jones said Tuesday that he planned to meet with Samuel H. Poole, an attorney and vice chair- man of the board, and kev mem- bers of the UNC system admini- stration for an update on the prog- ress of Poulton's inquiry. "I'm really trying to update myself Jones said, "and in turn, update the board. If wedon'ttake stock we could be criticized. And what I intend to do on behalf of my whole board is to have a ses- sion on bringing us up to date, and at that time, ascertain if there is a move we should be making as a board Meanwhile Tuesday, former NCSU Professor Richard A. Lauffer met with NCSU counsel Becky R. French and investigators from the NCAA and Atlantic Coast Conference as part of an investigation into the allegations of grade changing at the univer- sity. Lauffer, who retired from NCSU in 1988 after seven years as head of the physical education de- partment, declined to discuss his conversation with the investiga- tor. "I really don't want to say anything about it other than that I feel that it was a very profession- ally conducted interview, and I've come away feeling very good about the fact that investigators arc going to do a very good and thorough job he said in a tele- phone interview from his home in Emerald Isle. "I think it will hurt the investigation if I come out now and say anything Lauffer said he was con- vinced that the NCAA "definitely is taking this seriouslv Lauffer has said that three failing grades for former Wolfpack basketball player Chris Washburn had been changed to passing grades in the spring oi 1985. The former professor said that he had met with Poulton to discuss the grades in the fall ol 1985 and that the chancellor had told him not to worrv about the situation. Lauffer said Poulton had appeared unconcerned when told that grades had been changed. Poulton later denied that he had discussed the grades with Lauffer. Former redshirt fulfills Casey Mote, ECU'S freshman forwardcenter, practices Wednes- day afternoon in preparation for the Pirates' Saturday matchup against UNC-W. The 6'7" Mote is averaging 3.3 points and 1.3 rebounds per game. (Photo ?Gretchen Journigan- photo lab) By MICHAEL ZAKELY Sports Writer Signing with a Division 1 col- lege team is the goal for most high school basketball players. So when Casey Mote got the oppor- tunity to play for East Carolina fulfilled a goal he set for himself. Mote, a freshman, was origi- nally red-shirted until injuries and personal problems on the team forced Coach Mike Steele to pull Mote from the bench and onto the court. Steele told Mote the team would need his rebounding strength. At 6'7 Mote is one of the tallest players on the team. Mote is happier now that he is playing. "I am just happy I can help the team in any way Mole said. . . Not only did Mote get to play his freshman year, but his first action came as a starter in a sold- out Minges Coliseum against "Lefty" Driesell and the Dukes of James Madison. Since then, Mote Casey Mote has played in all three of ECU's games, two as a starter. In his four appearances, the tteshman forwardcenter has averaged 3.3 points and 1.3 re- bounds per game. He averages 55.6 percent from the floor and 60 percent from the free throw line. Mote scored a season high of 10 points against Navy on Mon- day to help the Pirates beat the Midshipmen 70-63. Mote chose East Carolina because the coaching staff showed a real interest in him. Mote also liked the East Carolina campus and surrounding area. "The coaches showed a lot of in- terest in me said Mote, "which made me feel comfortable with my decision of choosing to play for East Carolina Mote played high school bas- ketball in Demorest, Georgia, at Habersham High under Coach Van Gregg. Mote played three years on the varsity team and averaged 22 points and 11 re- bounds during his senior year at Habersham . During his senior year, he surpassed the 1,000 point mark for his career. "One of my biggest thrills in basketball was scoring one thousand points in my high school career, said Mote. Mote said the weakest part of his game is his physical strength while the best part of his game is shooting the ball with height. Mote noticed the difference between high school and college basketball right away. The size and quickness of college players is the most noticeable change. "The type of ball played in the game is much more physical and intense in college Mote said. Mote was recruited by other schools such as North Carolina at Ashville, Texas Christian, and Mars Hill. Mote considered these colleges, but East Carolina won the recruiting battle because of the efforts of the coaching staff. Mote hopes he can contribute to the building of the East Carolina bas- ketball program the next four years. ECU indoor track team preps for spring meets By MICHAEL G.

Over the weekend, they par- ticipated in two tournaments in Chapel Hill and in Blacksburg, Va. The team's results were not turned in at the request of coach Bill Carson. However, coach Car- son did sav that the team was running very well against teams of higher caliber than that of the Pirates. Considering the men's team consists of sprinters alone, they must train and run hard to keep up with the other schools in point standings. Running with the likes of Auburn, Florida, Georgia, and the Universitv of South Carolina, J the team ia doing quite well. According to coach Carson, "We're just working on leg speed right now, getting ready for the outdoor season He also said the outdoor sea- son will prosper from the indoor season. Although the team is very- young, there are very high expec- tations for the future. Team members junior Robinson, Rich- ard Wright, Brian Irving, and Eugene McNeill will play a major role in the teams success. Robin- son and Wright, both football players, are expected to have a definite impact in the Pirates's 100 and 200 individual dashes and relays. Coach Carson went on to say that he is not reallv concerned with the scores of the indoor meets, but he is concerned with the performance oi his runners. The team has five meets re- maining and the IC4A Champi- onships as well as the NCAA Indoor Championship to be held in Indianapolis, I.N. on March 10- 11. Fellows take IRS tourney (IRS) ? The annual intramu- ral sport pre season basketball tournament was held recently and a record twenty-one teams across campus took part in the action. Play was intense from the first round through the final con- test with hoopsters scoring the majority of points above the rim. In the A bracket, The Fellows, lead by William Grady, Percy Edwards and Mark Gaines took no prisoners defeating one squad 130-63. Gaines popped in over 60 points for the victors. The 'two G's Grady and Gaines were un- stoppable both inside and the perimeter while Edwards keyed the offense with lane penetration establishing himself as the assist leader. Their only competition came from a squad called No Prejudice Intended. Brian Delaney pro- vided a few glittering moments for NPI fans but the group still found themselves in a losing battle 68-58. In the B bracket, Winter Heat enjoyed a glorious tournament. Shooting sensation Marcus Good- son put on a perimeter clinic with games of 37, 43 and 46 scoring most points from 18-25 foot range. Winter Heat faced a strong re- bounding squad as they made their climb to 'he championship game. Here's the Beef gave the Heat a run for their money with outstanding inside play but fell short 59-56. The final tournament game pit- ted The Fellows and Winter Heat in a somewhat lopsided contest. The Heat geared strategies at de- fending fellow Mark Gaines but found themselves out in the cold as the remaining Fellows con- nected from all sides of the cylin- der and walked away with a 75-63 championship.

Ivan Lendl destroyed John McEnroe's title dream with a straight-set victory Wednesday in the quarterfinals of the $2.4 mil- lion Australian Open tennis championship. "I played very well, but he played better McEnroe said. Lendl crashed a remarkable 40 passing shots past the Ameri- can to win 7-6 (7-0), 6-2, 7-6 (7-2) and earn a meeting in the semifi- nals with llth-sceded Thomas Muster of Austria. Muster gained the semis for the first time in a Grand Slam event when two-time champion Stefan Edberg of Sweden was forced to default with a mysteri- ous and painful back injury. Edberg suffered the injury during his fourth-round victory over Australian Pat Cash and said it would keep him out of action for at least two weeks. Miloslav Mecir of Czechoslo- vakia, the ninth seed, crushed Yugoslav teen-ager Goran Ivani- sevic 7-5, 6-0, 6-3 to also advance to the semifinals, where he will face unseeded Swede Jan Gun- narsson.
