Curfews lifted after tensions in Georgia
MOSCOW (AP) ? Over the
objections of the regional army
commander, political leaders
ordered troops to break up a pro-
mdependence rally in Soviet
Georgia, Foreign Minister Eduard
Shevardnadze was quoted as
saving.
At least 19 people were killed
m the April 9 clash in the Georgian
capital, Tbilisi. In the Baltic repub-
lic of Lithuania, thousands rallied
Sunday to mourn the victims. And
at a rally in Moscow, human rights
activist Andrei D. Sakharov led
about 500 people in a minute of
silence for the dead.
In a report Sunday, Pravda
quoted Shevardnadze as saving
the curfew in the southern repub-
lic could be lifted today. Tbilisi
has generally been quiet, though
tense, since the deaths.
An 11 p.mto-6 a.m. curfew
imposed after the demonstrations
has been cut back to from mid-
night to 5 a.m local activist Sergei
Dandurov said by telephone.
During the unrest, Shevardnadze
said the army "marched and was
stationed in certain places under
orders given by the leadership of
the republic the Communist
Party newspaper Pravda reported.
Shevardnadze said the deci-
sion to use troops to quell the pro-
tests was opposed by Col. Gen.
I.N. Rodionov, commander of a
region that includes Georgia,
Armenia, and Azerbaijan. "The
commander said the function the
troops were ordered to perform
was not the responsibility of the
army Pravda quoted Shevard-
nadze as saying in a speech Fri-
day to the Georgian Communist
Party's Central Committee.
On Friday, the republic's party
chief resigned after accepting re-
sponsibility for the April 9 clash in
a main square of Tbilisi, and the
republic's premier was also fired
asa result. Shevardnadze was sent
to the region to help restore order.
He is a native Georgian and
former chief of the republic'sCom-
munist Party. State-run Radio
Moscow said 20 people died and
more than 150 were injured in the
April 9 clash.
The official Georgian news
agency Gruzinform said thedeath
toll remained at 19. Sakharov, the
1975 Nobel Peace Prize laureate,
said during the Moscow rally that
he blamed the bloodshed in Tbil-
isi on measures adopted last
summer in Moscow requiring
advance permission for demon-
strations.
Sakharov, who is running for
a seat in the new Congress of
People's Deputies, said he would
fight to revoke the decrees if
elected. The Soviet Union has
witnessed a resurgence of regional
nationalism under President
Mikhail S. Gorbachev.
The nationalists often profess
to back Gorbachev's social and
political reforms while demand-
ing more autonomy.

that isn't the issue
Starkie also claims that he
faced the same problems in Phila-
delphia that he is facing right now.
After graduating from

sented the fact that I got the house
and they didn't.
"They complained to the
board, and since they were giving

Starkie had a difficult decision to
make. He was torn between row-
ing, going to school, and working.
1 le chose to go to Philadelphia,
where he could live with some
relatives, go to school, and con-
tinue to row.
1 wanted to go to school, and
1 did for a while (the Community
College of Philadelphia) Starkie
explained. But the money ran out
and 1 had to make some decisions.
I couldn't go to school, practice,
and support myself all at the same
time, so 1 had to drop out of
school
At this point, Starkie was
rowing for Undine Barge Club,
with the help of ex-coach Allen.
"I found out that Preston was
going to Philadelphia and 1 told
him that there were some great
rowing clubs up there' Allen said.
1 called a friend of mine to see if
he could help Preston out. Undine
has some good rowers, a great
coach (Jim Barker), excellent
equipment, and is right there in
the middle of some of the best
rowing competition in the United
States
"When 1 was there, all 1 did
was watch, learn and listen
Starkie said. 'Then, I was new to
the sport, and 1 didn't want to step
on anybody's feet
It was also at this point that
Starkie became efficient in the
doubles and singles rowing. He
practiced every day and pro-
gressed beyond his own belief.
Sta rkie saidtha t there were people
there that didn'tlikehisheadway,
and they let him know it.
"The guvs would make com-
ments to me you know in a
subtle wav Starkie added. "Ei-
ther they wouldn't talk to me at
all, or they would have limited
conversation with me. Basically,
they talked behind my back, but
they didn't know that 1 knew

pressed with Starkie's achieve-

live in the boathouse while he
trained. The house had no heat
nor air conditioning, so when
winter time rolled around, he was
gi ven permission to live in a house
close to the other boathouse and
the river.
Several of the other rowers,
according to Starkie, didn't like
the idea that they were bypassed
in contention for the house. They
went to the Undine Board of Di-
rectors and appealed the situation.
According to Starkie, the
board, just three days after hear-
ing the other rowers complaints,
notified him that he would ha 2
tomuveo t. He wasalso informer
that if he challenged the boards
decision, his rowing future in
Philadelphia would be in jeop-
ardy.
Attempts to contact the
Undine Board of Directors were
unsuccessful.
Coach Barker, however, had
the following comments:
"Preston didn't row for us last
year, but I did see him for a minute
at the national qualifying meet. If
Preston would put more time into
rowing, he would be very good
Barker said. "However, he had a
problem with practice and sup-
porting himself, things just didn't
work out for him.
"As far as the housing situ-
ation is concerned Barker con-
tinued, "1 really don't know what
happened, so 1 decline to give any
comment
"Rowing has traditionally
been an Ivy Ueague sport, and 1
was the victim of 'conservative
racism Starkie said. "I grew up
in North Carolina and I didn't
come from money. Up there, all of
tol of the United States, so I had to
accept things for the way that they
were Starkie continued.
After his time in Philadelphia,
Starkie moved back to North Caro-
lina where he was delt a severe
blow. His best friend, the friend
that introduced him to rowing,
committed suicide. The effects of
all of his losses compounded and
caused Starkie to quit rowing for a
short period of time.
"Things sort of broke down
for me, "he said. "I quit practicing,
I didn't work 1 just didn't do
anything. I layed around my
mom's house and tried to put my
life back together again.
"After about three months,
things got a little better, and I
started to practice again
It was also at this time that
Starkie rejoined the Pamlico
Rowing Club. His immediate goals
were to get back into shape and
get back into competition.
That was over a year ago, and
now Starkie believes he has been
the victim of racism here too.
"A lot of these people have
good intentions for their (rowing)
clubs, but it turns out that if you
don't come from money, they
don't want you anymore. I think
that is pretty racist because I'm
black and I didn't come from
money Starkie said.
Allen claims that his club and
rowing are in no way racist.
"The Pamlico Rowing Club is

Allen contacted The East
Carolinian Wednesday and said
the ban that was placed on Starkie
would be reconsidered by the
executive committee so long as he
(Starkie) got in touch with the
United States Rowing Association,
found out what it would take for
him to qualify for the national
team, and found out what meets
would be necessary for him to
compete in to qualify for the na-
tional team.
Attempts to contact a repre-
sentative of the United States
Rowing Association for comments
concerning Starkie's allegations
were unsuccessful.
If the ban is lifted on Starkie,
he will have the necessary facili-
ties and equipment to train. If the
members decide to uphold their
decision, Starkie will be forced to
either relocate or find sponsors to
buv him a boat, fund his travel
and his entry fees.

OPINION

Ethics
Ethics: a vast body of reflective thought
about and the analysis of the morality of
mankind, its principles, values, theoretical
justifications, and paradoxes.
Arguments about whether or not ethics
should be taught in the classroom, particu-
larly the business classroom, are worth lis-
tening to. For at least the last ten years, there
has been heated discussion about how to
structure such a class and and what impor-
tance should be placed on it. In 1978, 70
percent of the 217 responses to a college poll
indicated that they had courses designed to
relate instruction in ethics and moral values
to aspects of the business enterprise.
ECU offers a business ethics course in
its philosophy department and at the
graduate level in the business department
there is an elective called "Business and
Society which deals partly with ethical
issues. The problem arises when listening to
news reports on the radio and television or
reading the newspapers. Companies con-
tinuouslv build plants in third world coun-
tries not merely to provide jobs for the poor,
but to pay them less than half of what a U.S.
factory worker would demand in wages;
Texas Gulf corporation dilutes the Pamlico
Sound with groundwater, thereby reduc-
ing salinity and killing off the marine life;
Exxon is overwhelmed by the magnitude of
an oil spill it had no contingency plan for.
An agreed upon point is that ethics is
something that can't be taught or forced
upon a person. A conscience is something
students either have or don't have. But a
course structured in a way to help students
discuss and understand their own ethical
attitudes as they relate and conflict with ac-
cepted practices of business should be
mandatory. Future businessmen and
women need to learn not only how they re-
late to the industrial world, but also how
their decision-making relates to the society
they're a part of.
A recent poll indicates that three-
fourths of the American public feels like big
business "gets its way This concern is one
which should be looked at at the college-
level where the businessman and women of
tomorrow are trained. ECU is not any worse
off than the other two large universities in
the state which don't require a mandatory
business ethics course, N.C. State and UNC-
Chapel Hill, but it could set the trend.
There'sno need for ECU to always wait
until the other large schools decide some-
thing is important and then follow their
footsteps. This university has an accredited
and well-respected business school turning
out more graduates than any other depart-
ment, but it's about time it placed emphasis
on more than the qualitative and quantita-
tive.
How not to pick a president in 1992
By FRED BARNES
The New Republic
The fix was in. When the rules commit-
teeof the Democratic Party met in Washing-
ton three weeks before the national conven-
tion last year, member after member ex-
tolled changes in the presidential delegate
selection process negotiated by minions of
Michael Dukakis and Jesse Jackson.
Only now are Democrats sobering up
to the Democratic nominee in 1992 to win
the presidency.
Why? The new rules make it less likely
that a clear-cut winner will emerge early in
the primaries. They also give runners-up a
strong incentive to stay in the race to the
convention. And there's one final conse-
quence of the new rules. They practically
guarantee that Jesse Jackson will get more
delegates than in 1988.
Jackson wanted all "superdelegates"
eliminated. But he settled for depriving
most of the 404 members of the Democratic
National Committee of this status. He got
rid of the mandatory 15 percent threshold
that a candidate must reach in a primary to
collect any delegates. Most important of all,
the Dukakis-Jackson deal ended "bonus"
and 'loophole" primaries. In those, the
winner in a congressional district either got
a bonus of one extra delegate or, in the six
loophole states, all the delegates.
The changes were not made with the
party's best interests at heart. In 1982 and
again in 1986, party commissions deliber-
ated in public for months before recom-
mending changes in the delegate selection
process. The 1988 changes were worked out
by Tad Devine, Dukakis' delegate counter,
and Harold Ickes, a Jackson agent, in pri-
vate talks. They were pursuing their candi-
date's interests, not the party's.
Dukakis didn't really want any rules
changes. His goal was a harmonious con-
vention. Jackson was thinking ahead to his
1992 presidential bid. He sought a way to
maximize the number of delegates he could
get while winning few primaries. He got it.
In 1988, Jackson had 1,219 of the 4,162
delegates. That was enough for him to stay
in the race until the convention, secure the
rules changes and force Dukakis to treat
him as virtually a political equal in the
convention, secure the rules changes and
force Dukakis to treat him as virtually a
political equal in Atlanta. In 1992, Jackson
will have more power. "If he maintains his
base, he should go into the next convention
with approximately 1,500 delegates says
Mark Siegel, a DNC member and Jackson
foe. "The new rules change would put
Jackson beyond the threshold of deniabil-
ity
In other words, Jackson will have the
leverage to demand the vice presidential
nomination, or else. The threat would be
that he'd take a walk if denied, and deprive
the nominee of millions of black votes. Ei-
ther way Democrats are all but certain to
lose the White House in 1992.
The rules changes put the Democratic
nominee at a special disadvantage in the
general election. GOP rules facilitate the
emergence of a Republican winner in the
early primaries. Bush locked up the nomi-
nation on Super Tuesday, March 9, when he
won almost all the delegates. That gave him
"the luxury of three or four months" to plan
his strategy for the fall, says Bob Beckel, a
top Democratic strategist.
By May, Bush aides were trying out the
Pledge of Allegiance and Willie Horton
issues on "focus groups" of swing voters in
New Jersey. At that point in the Democratic
contest, Dukakis was still engaged in trench
warfare with Jackson.
Fair reflection of grass-roots Democrats
is important in delegate selection, says Tom
Donilon, a veteran of the Carter, Mondale
and Dukakis campaigns. "But there's an-
other value here ? getting a strong nomi-
nee early Loophole and bonus primaries
are critical to this. The loophole primaries,
where the winner can pile up large delegate
margins, serve this purpose, particularly
the Illinois primary in mid-March and
Pennsylvania in early April. The new rules
may deprive the front-runner of several
hundred delegates. "If it's 200 or 250, that's
a lot to take away from the front-runner as
he's driving to the nomination Donilon
says.
The effect is to give also-rans an incen-
tive to stay in the race. After all, with pro-
portional representation, they'll continue
to pick up delegates. "Over the last 20 years,
the rules changes have catapulted the presi-
dential nomination process from a regime
of coalition-building into a regime of fac-
tion-mobilization says Polsby. The new
changes "mobilize the factions even more
And party unity is delayed.
The person who now must solve the
rules mess is Ron Brown, the new Demo-
cratic national chairman. As Jackson's
campaign chief last year, he's in a particu-
larly awkward position. He orchestrated
the rules deal, knowing full well its impact
on the 1992 nomination. Brown is bound to
revoke one rules change ? the stripping of
DNC members of automatic delegate
status. They're his most immediate con-
stituency. So he had to promise when he
was running for chairman to restore that
status.
Even here, though, Brown is in a posi-
tion to aid Jackson, or another candidate.
One of Dukakis' concessions to Jackson was
to expand the at-large members of the DNC
from 25 to 45. Jackson got 12 of the new
members, including an ardent PLO sup-
porter and Louis Farrakhan sympathizer.

Give credit to the Strategic planning
To the editor:
Human nature seems to dictate
that people complain when things
"go wrong but that we remain si-
lent when "gwd things" happen,
since "good things" should be the
norm. However, 1 stongly feel that
exceptional performance should be
acknowledged, and that due credit
be given to those who deserve it.
My specific reference is to my
experience with all the pimple who
are participating in East Carolina's
ten year strategic planning mission, a
process that attempts to identify
every strength and weakness of our
great institution. I first came to ECU
as a student in 1979, largely because
my grades were not gtxni enough to
get me into N.C. State or Chapel Hill.
In retrospect. East Carolina was my
third choice because I perceived
more prestige and better images
from the other two universities. To-
day ? ten vears later ? I remain a
student at ECU, "sold" on this uni-
versity. I believe there probably are
other potential students much
smarter than me who have similar
impressions about, East Carolina.
This image problem is the kind of
weakness that should appear in the
final Strategic Planning Mission rec-
ommendations due out soon. Only
after the problem is recognized can
changes be made.
The Strategic Planning program
is a marketing tool and a worthwhile
learning instrument because it as-
sesses peoples' attitudes and percep-
tions about what the university is
doing right or wrong. The draft re-
port that is circulating around cam-
pus now says ECU'S strengths in-
clude a strong culture and excellent
human relation skills between stu-
dents and faculty. Unfortunately, the
university is perceived as a "party
school a serious weakness that
must be corrected because we all
know that ECU students do not party
any harder than UNC students, for
example. This bad "image" has ma-
tured when one considers that the
same party image was an issue when
I came to Greenville in 1979.
I look forward to participating in
the next ten year strategy plan,
whenever it is implemented. Hope-
fully, there will be a new list of per-
ceived strengths and weaknesses. If
ECU is lucky, one of the new
strengths will be that students study
too much and do not spend enough
time "relaxing Until then, my
immediate concerns focus on pro-
moting the university as much as
possible now.
I would like to express my fullest
appreciation to the faculty, the busi-
ness community, and all the students
who conceived and made the ten-
year strategic plan a reality. Needless
to say, each of you is an ECU sup-
porter of the first order. No fair-
minded person interested in the uni-
versity's growth and success could
ask for more.

False
statements
To the editor:
In the Thursday April 13 issue,
Mr. Gary Ambert, the Director of the
Foreign Language Lab, wrote a letter
that created an intriguing story about
the events surrounding the passage
of the SGA resolution titled "A Reso-
lution Supporting the Expansion of
Foreign Language Faclities and Serv-
ices on March 28,1989. As the au-
thors of the legislation, we would like
to clear up the incredible abberation

places on campus that are open on
t he weekends a nd during exams. Not
to mention the fact that Joyner and
the Music Listening Center can copy
the tapes as well.
Finally, Mr. Ambert implied that
the lab services are only of real worth
if the lab is "close to the faculty and
staff who work in our (foreign lan-
guage) department It must be made
clear that students a re the ones work-
ing in the lab, not the faculty. Now
there is an idea: why not have the
faculty in the lab, then Mr. Ambert
would have an argument worth a
listen.

These attempts to even make an
appointment with the lab director
were in vain; messages left for him
were never returned. Finally I did
happen to find Mr. Ambert in his

that this behavior is not exemplary
behavior, there are many, many
wonderful faculty members that are
invaluable to those of us here to learn.
If all of the faculty were as discourte-
ous as Mr. Ambert there would not
be a student on campus. It should
always be remembered that the fac-
ulty is here for the students; without
us, there would be a great deal of
people out of work.
Fourth, Mr. Ambert stated in his
letter that the language lab is open 42
hours a week. Well, that is the whole
problem. He also said that any im-
provements or changes in language
lab services would be technological
only. Technological improvements
probably will help foreign language
students, if they can get to the lab.
There are a great deal of students on
campus that must work to support
themselves while they are in school.
In addition, as students go through
freshman orientation, we are told
that we should study three hours for
every credit hour that we take. For a
student taking 16 hours, that's 48

Exxon begins cleanup process
Bl OCK ISLAND, Alaska (AP)
On this tiny piece of real estate
in Prince William Sound, gooey
crude oil from the nation's worst
oil spill is puddled ankle-deep in
some places.
Beaches are slathered with it,
and a black line across rocky out-
croppings marks the reach of high
tide and the border between life
and death. With Alaska's brief
summer approaching, Exxon is
faced with the task of cleaning the
shoreline here and in dozens of
other places before mid-Septem-
ber and the first signs of winter.
The company must clean
about 300 miles of remote and
rugged beaches and shoreline
within 150 days. "It's going to be
very, very tough said Coast
Guard Adm. Paul Yost, who is
heading the operations at Presi-
dent Bush's direction.
Exxon this weekend handed
Yost a shoreline cleanup plan he
had demanded, and on Sunday
the company assembled officials
ot state and federal agencies and
the news media for a technologi-
cal show and tell on a heavily oiled
beach here. For hours in a cold
drizzle, Exxon displayed on 75
yards of gravel beach techniques
for removing oil.
They included things like
vacuumsand a $3,000gun capable
of spewing 2.5 gallons of steam-
ing hot water a minute, an envi-
ronmentally risky method because
it sterilizes the beach. "Different
combinations of these will be
necessary in different situations
said Bob Castle, a San Francisco-
based Exxon consultant.
Landing craft hauling heavy
equipment butted up to greasy
rockson the normally quiet beach.
A small skimmer slurped up oil in
an area surrounded by bright yel-
low booms.
About t0 oil smeared work-
ers in rain gear and hard hats
wrestled with grimy firehoses,
generators and other gear ? stop-
ping and starting with the arrival
of new batches of visitors clad in
bright orange float suits. One tech-
nique used irrigation and fire
hoses to rinse the beach with cold
water.
It removed more than half the
oil in one spot during a brief dem-
onstration and had to be halted
occasionally so that late-arriving
officials?Yost included?would
get to see it in action. Details of
Exxon's cleanup plan have not
been made public.
Ed Owens, an Exxon technol-
ogy consultant, said the cost of
cleaning Prince William Sound
beaches could run to $200 a linear
foot. The 987-foot tanker Exxon
Valdez dumped 10.1 million gal-
lons of crude oil in the sound on
March 24 after hitting Bligh Reef
some 25 miles northeast of Block
Island.
The company has picked up
about 840,000 gallons from the sea.
Shoreline cleanup has been nil,
and Exxon has drawn increasing
fire for its lack of response.
Because of the criticism, Yost
was put in charge of the effort.
Block Island actually is part of
Ellinor Island.
An uplifting of the sea floor
joined the two during the 1964
Good Friday earthquake, 25 years
to the day before the Exxon spill.
Controlled by the U.S. Forest Serv-
ice, it is home to Sitka black-tailed
deer, land otters and various birds.
It also contains at least one ar-
chaeological site.
Steve Haavig, a Juneau-based
Alaska Department of Environ-
mental Conservation ecologist,
and Fred Stroud, an Environ-
mental Protection Agency official
from Atlanta, spent much of the
day checking the depth of the
beach contamination. In some
places, the oil had soaked in only
an inch. In other places, it was
found several inches deep.
"They're never going to get it
all Haavig said. Stroud agreed.
"I'd like to see them get up all
the gross contamination Stroud
said. "But you're going to have a
sheen coming off for years

AIDS anti-discrimination law proposed
RALEIGH (AP) ? Without a
state law prohibiting discrimina-
tion, many people at risk of hav-
ing the AIDS virus will not come
forward to be tested, making it
impossible lo treat or counsel them
or to inform their sexual partners,
supporters of an anti-discrimina-
tion bill say. And supporters of
the legislation say the time to act is
now.
"This is probably our last
opportunity to pass legislation to
keep us a w-prevalance state
said Davia jonesof theN.C. AIDS
Son. ice Coalition. The legislation
would make it illegal to fire some-
one from a job or to deny someone
housing or public transportation
because a test showed they had
the AIDS virus.
North Carolina has about 800
reported AIDS cases, a relatively
low number compared with other
states. But health officials point
' outtmrAirBcasiVaaBfebW'
in the state every 13 months, so
the numbers could increase dra-
matically in a short time.
"What are we going to do,
wait until there are 10,000 cases to
act?" asked Dr. jared Schwartz,
director of pathology and labora-
tory medicine at Presbyterian
Hospital in Charlotte. He is also
chairman of a Medical Society
committee on sexually transmit-
ted diseasesand acquired immune
deficiency syndrome.
"Let's act now Schwartz
said. But the legislation faces an
uphill battle in a legislature with
conservative Democrats still in
positions of power and Republi-
cans enjoying increased strength,
The News and Observer of Raleigh
reported.
At a recent meeting in
Ahoskie, Republicans from the
First Congressional Distnct urged
defeat of the anti-discrimination
bill, calling it a "thinly disguised
gay rights bill Sen. Ollie Harris,
D-Cleveland, influential chairman
of the Senate Human Resources
Committee, said he did not see a

- He sard an employer should

have great sympathy for some-
body who has the disease said
Rep. Coy Privette, R-Cabarrus.
"They ought to be treated fairly
and treated compassionately, but
we should not jeopardize the
health and welfare of others, par-
ticularly in areas such as food
service
But getting AIDS from ableed-
ing cook "is a ridiculous proposi-
tion said J.N. MacCormack, epi-
demiology section chief of the state
Division of Health Services. As-
suming the cook gets his infected
blood into the food, the AIDS vi-
rus would perish from the heat of
cooking, the chemicals in the food
or even sunlight, he said.
Further, MacCormack said,
there is little medical evidence to
suggest that AIDS can be trans-
mitted by eating food that con-
tains the virus. Health experts say
the AIDS virus is almost exclu-
sively transmitted by the exchange
of body fluids during sexual acts,
by the sharing of needles by drug
abusers and to babies by mothers
infected with the virus.
In an effort to address such
objections and to move the legis-
lation through the Senate, Sen.
Helen Marvin, D-Gaston, a spon-
sor of the bill, is prepared to ex-
empt restaurants from the anti-
discrimination standards. She
plans to introduce an amendment
that would exempt restaurants
until 1991 when the Senate Hu-
man Resources Committee con-
siders the bill next week.
"This would exempt them for
a couple of years Mrs. Marvin
said. "We are so sensitive about
our food. We need to educate
people about that

Understanding Today While Preparing for Tomorrow
Spring 1989
Eakin: ECU's future is bright
By KARL GRANT
Editor
After two years as chancellor of
East Carolina, Dr. Richard Eakin
sees a bright future for the
university and has helped initiate
plans to ensure continued growth
and success for ECU.
Coinciding with the addition of
a university planner to its staff,
ECU started a strategic planning
process in September 1988. The
process will continue through May
1990, and will determine some new
strategic directions for the
university.
Three committees were set up
to explore strengths and weaknesses,
institutional values and the external
environment at ECU. Those three
committees have reported their
findings in the first of three public
forums for the university faculty,
stall and students.
Eakin said the university will
form a basis for an overall strategic
plan of direction in May and that by
September 1990 the various schools
at ECU should have their specific
plans in action.
"If you take strategic planning
literally, once you have a plan you
should immediately begin re-
evaluating the plan Eakin said.
"Our plan should carry us through
the next four years but we hope to
identify goals to guide us through
the next 15-20 years. We'll have tc
adjust our plans constantly because
the university is always in a state ol
flux
" TtiS "big ge si "problem f ac in g
ECU is its public image, according
to Eakin. "The public perception is
that of an image of a university
which is 20 years old Eakin said.
"To change that, we've encouraged
the university publications office to
develop new publications which arc
current and reflect the nature of the
university.
"Since my arrival, I've tried to
do things to educate the public about
the quality and diversity of our
offerings at ECU Eakin said.
Eakin said the university has
several plans for new buildings,
including a S24 million addition to
the library. Another building being
planned is an administration
building, which will bring together
various offices such as financial aid,
admissions and the registrar's office.
Also on the drawing board is a new
student recreation center which will
provide a wide variety of indoor
recreation for students.
To accommodate the new
buildings and future growth, the
university will need to expand its
grounds. However, that poses
another problem because ECU is
located within the confines of a
neighborhood.
"We arc hemmed in on all sides
and have a major need of expansion,
but my preference is for us to be
good neighbors and acquire property
which will not involve buying
homes and relocating people Eakin
said.
A possible answer lies in the
acquisition of the properly where
Rose High School is currently
located. The university had
f originally planned to buy the
property by June 1991 but it may be
1992 before the purchase actually
takes place, Eakin said.
"The opportunity to buy the
Rose High property is the best
opportunity this university has had
in 25 years Eakin said. "We need
the property badly and we could also
make good use of the buildings
located on the property
As Eakin looks to the future of
ECU, he must also contend with the
paradox of the university needing to
improve its academic image while at
the same time remaining accessible
to students.
"As a university, we are of a
mixed mind on the issue of
acccssiblity and the quality
dimension Eakin said. "I'd like to
figure a way to continue to provide
accessibility but also to recruit the
very best students. It's a tough issue
that many universities are wresUing
wiih.
"On the one hand, we don't
want to be elitist but we don't want
to have open admissions, cither. We
have to try to figure out where ECU
should fit in between those two
extremes Eakin said.
Eakin added that ECU
should be in tune with how its
publications are being received by
the top students. He said more
emphasis and resources need to be
put into recruiting, not necessarily
to increase the student population
but to improve the quality of the
student body.
Affirmative action goals are
also very high on the university's
agenda, according to Eakin.
"We need to do a much better
job of hiring minorities and women.
That's not a new goal or a new plan;
that's an on-going effort Eakin
said. "The other area we are looking
at constantly is the enrollment of
minorities. Minorities are about 10
percent of our total student
population. I think we ought to
strive to have a larger percentage,
somewhere in the 10-14 percent
range
Eakin said the university
student body is composed of about
60 percent women and that he is
comfortable with that figure.
The goals of the university
should not come specifically from
the chancellor's office, Eakin said.
"When I came here two years ago
one of the first things I was asked
was my vision of the future. I
thought then and I think now that
it's important to not only hear what
the chancellor wants the university
to be but also what the community
wants the university to be Eakin
said.
Still, he has some specific ideas
of what the university should
represent in the next decade.
"In April of 1999,1 would hope
the university would be seen as a
doctoral-granting university. I hope
we are seen as a university
representing a high degree of quality
in our undergraduate and graduate
programs. I hope the university
would continue to provide a high
level of service to eastern North
Carolina.
"I also hope the university has a
much broader concept of its role so
that we serve not only eastern North
Carolina but the entire nation as
well Eakin said.

Task Force studies imase
By JULIE HOLLAND
Staff Writer
East Carolina University is
taking steps to better the school's
image as an academic institution.
ECU Chancellor, Dr. Richard
Eakin, initialed an Image Task Force
last fall to make suggestions for
improvements inside and outside of
ECU. The goal of the group is to
study image-relaied issues at ECU.
to identify the image the university
wants to project and how best to
accomplish that.
According to Joanne Kollai,
Director of University Publications
the task force wants to find a way to
put less emphasis on parties and
athletics.
The task force is currently
working on a visual identity system
by making a consistent letterhead
logo. The logo would be instantly
recognized on all publications com-
ing from the school.
Ms. Kollar said the task force is
an ongoing project which will take
on a different target problem each
year.
Status of ECUState game, Halloween celebration left in limbo
By BRENDAN KELSH
Staff Writer
There are two events that East
Carolina students will not be
experiencing this year: one is the
downtown Halloween celebration
and the other is the ECU-N. C. State
game held in Raleigh.
"The City Council has taken the
position that there will be no
downtown Halloween celebration
this year Public Information
Officer Greg Brown said.
The Halloween celebration of
1987 involved 20,000 people with
seven arrests and fire and rescue
units treating 45 people. The city
spent $15,000 in overtime costs and
800 man hours of service that did
not include clean-up crews.
In 1988 the Halloween
celebration consisted of 8,000 to
10,000 people. It was smaller than
the Halloween before because it fell
on a rainy Monday night. It
involved 50 arrests and an
undetermined amount of injuries.
The authorities could not gel to who
was doing what; however, only one
plate-glass window was broken.
One large problem wiih the
Halloween celebration is people
coming from out of town. "We
know this is one event that draws
people from out of town. Groups of
outsiders coming from everywhere is
bad Brown said.
Another problem with the
Halloween celebration lately is a
large number of people running
through the crowd.
"The current celebration is a
spontaneous event and a sponsor
takes on legal liability Brown said.
According to court laws on alcohol
consumption and drunk driving, "the
city does not want this
responsibility
"We will do whatever it takes
to enforce all applicable laws to
prevent celebration. If we see
people on the streets with alcohol,
they will pay the consequences
Brown said.
Another concern involving
Halloween is how to get the word
out to students that it will not be
held this year. "Various business
groups could use newspapers and
other media to notify students
Brown said. "Sororities and
fraternities could write affiliates on
other North Carolina campuses
Henry Van Sant, associate
director of internal relations for
athletics at ECU, commented on the
future possibilities of ECU playing
North Carolina State University in
football.
Van Sant said: "We hope to re-
establish a relationship. It is a
natural rivalry that draws one of the
three largest crowds. ECU playing
NCSU had more attendance than
NCSU and the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill
"There is no bitterness between
the administrative units Van Sant
said. "After the investigation, the
seriousness did not involve students,
but a security guard being injured.
"One cannot predict, project, or
control these types of instances. It
is a game that involves high
emotion, especially when there is
alcohol involved. It is not out of the
ordinary for a goal post, valued at
SI,500 to S2,000, to get torn
down
When commenting on the
reactions of people at the end of the
ECU-NCSU game. Van Sant said
that no one person was to blame.
"The sad thing about it is the action
of a few people affect large groups
of people
To prevent these types of
situations from occurring Van Sant
commented further: "We can avoid
these things by a change in altitudes
and values of people that this
behavior is not acceptable. Another
way is perhaps intensifying
security
"Our students and ECU
graduates are proud of this
institution. Our goal is for ECU to
be one of the finest universitities in
the country. Negative behavior does
not help to reach athletic goals. We
would like to play some of the top
institutions and posititve behavior
contributes to that
On views of the future of
athletics at ECU, Van Sant said.
"Our top-level leadership will give
us a top level of competition in
which we want to participate.
"Crowd control is a major
concern at any competition event
where there are a large number of
people involved Van Sant added.
"ECU security does a good job, but
need help from the general
population
Dave Hart, ECU director of
athletics, released these following
statementsOur door will remain
open for future negotiations with
NCSU should their administration
demonstrate an interest in a home-
and-home proposal in future years. It
is my belief that eventual athletic
competition between the institutions
in this state, the Big Five' if you
u ill, is a goal worthy of continued
pursuit
ECU football team moves into Lewis era
'?" T w
Bill Lewis
By MATT McLAUGHLIN
Staff Writer
With East Carolina making
moves to change the football pro-
gram into a respected division I
team, many questions arise such as
how will it be done, and how long
will it take? The task has fallen on
the shoulders of new head coach of
the Pirates Bill Lewis.
"It all starts with a commit-
ment Lewis said "East Carolina
started the commitment by building
a new athletic facility then by hiring
me. My staff and I have sat down
and discussed what it will take to
make East Carolina a winner, and
the bottom line starts with raising
the standard of the play by the ath-
letes as well as the coaches. The
team is now dedicating themselves
to a new system under new coaches
and this just doesn't happen
overnight
With a new staff here the
Pirates are bound to be a different
squad with a new identity. The first
change by the Pirate fans will be the
offense, no more run and shoot. The
Pirates will be using an offense very
similar to the Florida State offense
which consistently is one of the
most productive in the country. This
will not only bring excitement to
the Pirate offense.it will also bring a
well balanced attack using the arse-
nal of speedy backs and wide re-
ceivers that East Carolina has sel-
dom used. The new look offense
consists of an I formation backfield
running sweeps and counters and
threatening at all times with play-
action passes and sprint draws. It's a
balanced offense that uses the
flexibility to prey on the opponent's
defensive weaknesses.
All of these things arc going to
take time. Changing plays and phi-
losophy takes time, so docs chang-
ing the character of the team.
'??. is spring we're going to start
out teaching sound fundamental
football, while also learning to give
more effort and commitment
Lewis said. "The change of the atti-
tude has already begun thanks to the
strong leadership of the senior
members ot our football team. Now
the attitude must be contagious and
be caught by the younger players
This easier schedule is working
for Lewis and his staff. It could
boost the average amount of wins
per year past three, which has been
the average over the last four years.
Lewis plans to work alongside
Athletic Director Dave Hart in the
future scheduling to fit the plans for
the direction of the program. With
the growth of the university and
Greenville getting larger by the
second, the goal for Lewis and East
Carolina to reach respectability is
attainable.
Job demand is on the rise for East Carolina Graduates
By CAROLYN JUSTICE
Managing Editor
Jobs are the goal of most col-
lege graduates. As ECU seniors
graduate in May and undergraduates
select their major fields of study,
looking toward the future at job
outlooks is something we all must
do.
According to the "Occupational
Outlook Handbook . " service-
producing jobs such as health care,
education, banking and insurance,
will account for nine out of 10 jobs
by the year 1995.
At ECU, most students are
graduating with jobs in some areas
of this service field and therefore can
expect a bright future.
Jim Westmoreland, assistant
director of the career placement cen-
ter says that overall, ECU graduates
are successful in finding jobs both
in and out of their major.
Health care is one field that the
demand is increasing, yet the supply
is few, especially in nursing.
"Many nursing students at ECU
have jobs before they graduate said
Westmoreland. "ECU has a strong
program in nursing and graduates are
an example of the program's suc-
cess
Registered nurses, nursing aides
and orderlies will remain in demand
because of the anticipated growth of
these jobs. Health care will be
among the occupations providing
new jobs through the mid-1990 s.
The growth is expected because
of the population growth in older
citizens according to the
"Occupational Outlook Handbook
The "Occupational Outlook
Handbook" says that health care is
one of the few fields where qualified
graduates can be almost assured of a
job.
"Physical therapy and occupa-
tional therapy jobs are also in big
demand said Westmoreland.

ECU HORIZONS
Spring 1989
Opini on
A new horizon
dawns for ECU
A new horizon is dawning
for East Carolina University.
Since Dr. Richard Eakin's
arrival at the university as
chancellor two years ago,
ECU has started a strategic
planning process which will
continue through May 1990.
This process will determine
some new strategic directions
for the university.
Three committees have
been set up which will deal
with strengths and
weaknesses, institutional
values and the external
environment of the university.
Those committees have
already held the first of three
public forums for university
faculty, staff and students with
regard to their various reports.
In May, the university will
form a basis for an overall
strategic plan for a new
direction for the universitv. Bv
the fall of 1989-90, each
school in the university should
have its strategic plan in
progress.
All this planning is
designed to eliminate what Dr.
Eakin sees as the biggest
problem facing the university -
- public image. Eakin says the
the public perception is that of
an image of a university which
is 20 years old.
Also, the planning is
designed to find ways to make
the campus more attractive.
Eakin and the university
administration are working
together to convince the state
legislature of the university's
needs for new facilities.
rvfrrPcH:TeraTi 'emphasis of'
the planning process is to
bolster recruiting. The
university should not be as
concerned with the numbers of
students who enroll but the
quality of the overall student
body. The university
publications office needs to be
aware of what publications
will be well-received by the
most able students.
Eakin has a vision for
ECU, but he realizes his vision
will mean nothing if it is not
combined with what the
community envisions for
ECU.
"When 1 came here two
years ago, one of the first
thin us I was asked was about
mv vision of the future of
ECU Eakin said. "I thought
then and I think now that it is
important not only to hear
what the chancellor wants the
university to be but also what
the community would like
ECU to be
Eakin has the university on
the right track. The planning
process should allow ECU to
emerge in the next decade as a
doctoral granting university
which represents high quality
in its undergraduate and
graduate degree programs.
Most of all, the university will
emerge as an institution
providing a high level of
service to eastern North
Carolina and to the entire
nation.
A new horizon is dawning
for East Carolina Universitv.
The Lady Pirates continue with excellence
Full of tradition, the East
Carolina softhall team knows noth-
ing but success. In the late 70's,
Alita Dillion started a team which
quickly rose to a level of national
prominence. The third year team of
1980 won the rcgionals finishing
the season with a 37-5 record. The
Lady Pirates achieved top-ranking
Nationally in 1981-1982.
An AIAW national tournament
was started in 1981 and the Lady
Pirates placed fourth in that event.
Several Pirates were named to the
State, Regional and All-National
Tournament Teams. Three Pirates
were named to the National Regular
Season Team. In addition, two Lady
Pirates, Kathy Rilcy and Cynthia
Shenard received the Broderick
Award, the Heisman Award of
Softball for 1981 and 1982 season.
respectively.
Following itiis season, the
Pirates experienced a coaching
change. I walked into a national
powerhouse in 1982. The 1982
season was almost a carbon copy of
1981.
At this point in time a discus
sion was made to move into the
NCAA as the AIAW folded. The
nationally prominent Lady Pirates
also had to learn a new game, last-
pitch Softball. Recruiting strategics
changed. Although North Carolina
is a strong Softball state, the high
schools play slow-pitch. Out-ol-
state-players had to be recruited to
make our team successful.
In our inaugural fast-pilch sea-
son, the Lady Pirates again were a
success. The athletes now coming
from Maryland. New York and
Virginia helped our program turn the
page to last-pitch. Every team since
has won 25 games or more each
season. In 1985, pitchers Stacey
Boyette and Robin Grave led the
team to our first 30-win season in
the new era. Stacey Boyette also
achieved the honor of two time
Academic All-American which
Robin Craves and Pam Young
achieved honorable mention.
Pitching is such a large part of
this game. The current pitching
staff has gone through the growth
years together. As freshmen in
1987 and sophomores in 1988, they
won 25 games. Pitchers Jennifer
Sagl, Tracye Larkin, and Rcnee
Meyers are looking forward to their
junior season with great expecta-
tions.
The schedule the Lady Pirates
play is a tough one. Teams such as
nationally ranked Florida State
University and University of South
Carolina and the ACC's University
of Virginia and UNC-Chapel Hill
have full scholarships to offer.
With Athletic Director Dave
Hart's commitment to a winning
tradition at ECU, financial support
to keep the Lady Pirates competitive
is anticipated. The Lady Pirates
have done their part and will con-
tinue to strive for excellence in the
field. Fortunately, the administra-
tion has promised to do theirs. Let's
not let this great tradition of win-
ning at ECU die.
Sue Manahan
The real truth about Public S afety
It has been rumored that ECU's
Department of Public Safety refused
to release the number of sexual as-
saults on campus in order to protect
the school's image. Nothing could
be further from the truth. When
asked about the subject, ECU Police
Chief Johnny Rose pulls a folder
from the shelf behind him and re-
cites the number of assaults per year
for the past five years.
The figures are as follows:
School year Sexual assaults
1983-84 1
1984-853
1985-861
1986-873
1987-883
The figures include all sexual
assaults (by strangers and
acquaintances) and attempts reported
to the Public Safely Department.
Chief Rose doesn't try to gloss
over the situation, either. He can-
didly points out that not all sexual
assaults are reported and that, though
he can only guess, he estimates his
figures represent only 30-50 percent
of occurrences.
One reason the rumored number
is so much higher than Public
Safety Department figures show
(one student said she'd heard of five
rapes in February alone) is the unre-
liability of the grape vine. Chief
Rose said on the night a rape or at-
tempt happens, he'll often hear ru-
mors of four or five assaults.
Each year, the Public Safety
Department lakes pan in ECU;s
Rape Awareness Week, during
which self-defense classes are given,
ECU police officers give lectures on
avoiding sexual assault and what
to do if an assault occurs, and sym-
posiums are held on the causes of
rape in our society and possible
remedies.
Though any sexual assaults are
too many and this year's three is an
appallingly high number, accusing
the Public Safety Department of
hiding information is not the an-
swer. A better outlet for those con-
cerned about rapes is The Pirate
Walk, which has fought desperately
for funding every year and which is
in danger once again of being dis-
mantled.
Since we have no way of
knowing how many attempts never
take place because a student is es-
corted by someone from the Pirate
Walk, we must assume lhat even if
only one or two students use the
service per semester, that's enough
to justify funding. Furthermore, the
walk should be made more
accessible through a higher profile.
Ed Toshach
Students
need to get
involved
East Carolina University is
growing and expanding into the
future at an increasingly fast pace.
The university enrollment is higher
than ever, its image is improving
and the campus is growing. Student
attitudes, however, need lots of w ork
because the future success of East
Carolina University is dependent
upon the level of involvement of the
student population.
Students at ECU are becoming
more and more apathetic toward the
school. A perfect example of this is
Pirate Walk, the student escort
service that is being shut down
due to a lack of students utilizing
what it has lo offer. This service
was originally developed as a means
of protecting students; yet, the
students of this school didn't care
enough about it to bother using it.
Pirate Walk, a perfectly noble
organization, fell as a result of
student apathy and mismanagement.
The Student Government
Association itself has also suffered
from lack of student involvement.
The most recent SGA election
rendered a woeful 11 percent voter
turnout. It would seem that as
much as students like to complain
about things going wrong on this
campus, they would at least become
involved enough to vote so that a
change has a chance to come about.
It seems that if students band
together and rally behind a cause.
then positive changes have a better
chance of occurring. And one of the
best ways to make the student voice
known is through the polls on
election day.
The East Carolinian is also an
excellent way for students to become
more involved in their school. The
school newspaper is supposed to be
the voice of the students. The East
Carolinian accepts many types of
stories written bv ECU studentsjn
exchange for monetary
compensation. Not only can
students get paid, but they can
contribute to the betterment ol this
institution.
It is essential for students to
understand their duty to become
involved and contribute to the future
of this university. Pirate Walk, for
example, had problems other than a
lack of student involvement. The
SGA elections also suffered from a
lack of adequate numbers oi poll
booths as well as student apathy.
While lack of student involvement
was not the sole cause of the
problems of ihese activities, it
certainly didn't help the situation
much.
ECU is a rapidly growing
university. This growth depends on
many things such as the
enhancement of it's image. But
student involvement is needed to
make these changes and growths
worthwhile. Even if a school had
the perfect student governmental
body, a beautiful campus, a top-
notch newspaper and the best sports
teams possible, it would mean
nothing if the students are lackluster
and uncaring. It would be a pretty
school on the outside without any
body or foundation. It would be just
another pretty face.
Renee Redman
ECU: athletics and academics
East Carolina athletic officials
recognize the problem of combining
an athletic career with an academic
program.
To solve this dilemma the
university's athletic department is
constructing future plans for a
Personal Development Program.
The program will offer such things
as life skill seminars and total
leadership programs. The entire
student development will be dealt
with, a great idea for the athletic
student.
According to Pam Penland,
Assistant Athletic Director for
Academic Counseling, the
university can look forward to
academics and athetics working
together.
Penland, who has worked with
ECU athletes for five years, voiced
her concerns over the athletic
department's public image,
especially with its relation to
academics. Is the athletic program a
clean one? According to Penland it's
a clean program lhat the students
should know more about.
So what are some of the
differences between the student
athlete as opposed to the regular
student? Time, time, time, and this
will never change for the athlete.
Athletes have to go through such
things as practice, conditioning,
weight lifting and rehabilitation. Of
course travel lime must be
considered .also, and a normal social
life? - forget it!
Football is probably the last
thing on the everyone's mind now,
except for the players. The players
are having to go to class, practice
for about four to five hours and
then study. They virtually have no
flexible time.
So why do we hear so much
about athletes having academic
problems? Time restraint, time
restraint. It seems they have more oi
a time problem than an academic
problem.
What can be done to help the
athlete with academic problems
now? There are support services for
all athletes, and academic and
personal counseling are offered daily
Along with these services also arc
tutorial services.
Where's another area that
perhaps the athlete student differs
from the regular student? Admission
requirements, perhaps? Not
according to Pam Penland.
"Admission requirements for athletes
are very similiar to regular students'
requirements, except when it comes
to the paper work The academic
department has to do triple the
documentation for athletes than for
regular students.
There will be a new admissions
requirement that will affect not only
the athlete but the regular student
also upon being accepted into ECU.
Starting in 1990, all students in
North Carolina will be required to
have three sciences completed before
being admitted into a university.
The admission requirements,
according to Pam Penland, don't
make it difficult for athletes to be
accepted into the university.
Admissions might not be difficult,
but individuals must follow the
rules once they are in.
With the excellent programs and
services available to the ECU
athletes, there is help for them
to meet these requirements. They
also can look forward to the
Personal Development Program lhat
is expected to be in progress within
two years.
This isn't a program where
athletics is more important than
academics, but it is a program where
they work together.

proper perspective. When asked how
he feels, Jenkins responded, "it feels
pretty good, but at any time that stat
(.statistic) can change
The 6-foot-7,195 pound pitcher
is the leader of the Pirate pitching
staff, has a perfect career mark of 11 -
0 since becoming a starter at East
Carolina. He has tied teammate Jake
Jacobs' school record for most
consecutive victories in a career
(in.
Jenkins' pitching has already
sent 38 baiters back to the dug out
wondering what hail happened to
them. Jenkins fastball has been
clocked at 85 miles per hour and that
kind of speed will turn many pro
scouts' heads. In 25 innings, he has
given up 1ft hits and 13 walks.
Jenkins' favorite pilch is the slider
and the way he throws and the
control he has, baseball at a
professional level is not out of the
question forJenkins'futurc.
Jenkins, like most great
athletes, doesn't take all of the
credit for his accomplishments. He
pitches his game and relics on the
Pirate defense to back him up with
fine fielding.
"They have come up with some
great plays, especially the double
plays Jenkins said.
The junior hurler has future
plans of playing for the Pittsburgh
Pirates, if they draft him. Jenkins'
future as a pro has definitely taken a
turn for the better with his
performance this season. A player
with his ability is always an asset to
a big league club.
Jenkins crcdiLs the team, Coach
Gary Ovcrton, and his parents for
his success thus far.
Jonathan Jenkins
"When I was young, my parents
didn't force me to play. It was all
my decision he said. "I just wanted
to play
Jenkins believes Coach Gary
Overton is a big reason why he is
having such a successful season.
Jenkins is thankful he was given a
chance.
"Coach is an inspiration to us
all Jenkins said. "I'm just glad
that he has believed in me and stuck
with me. He's taught me a lot and
he brings out the best in all of us
Jenkins' main inspiration is his
teammates. He also feels that the
experience he and his teammates
have will aid in the team's future.
The confidence that Jenkins
exudes is one trait all great pitchers
have. It is just one of many qualities
that pro scouts look for when it
comes to being drafted. Jenkins'
statistics and his ability could lead
him to a very successful career in
the pros, if he is given the chance.
The future for Johnathan Jenkins
looks as bright as the future for the
Pirate team.
Although Jenkins' modest
altitude won't allow him to take any
credit, his services to the team are
invaluable. Jenkins has come out
this season and proved he is ready to
play at a competitive level and
won't back down to a challenge. It
is that kind of confidence that will
lead Jenkins to a successful career.
Kobe prepares for upcoming season
Pirate swimming program set for solid future
Bv KRISTEN HALBERG
Staff Writer
The Past Carolina swimming
and diving team has had a
recordbreaking 19XS-S9 season.
The men, after settling for
second best for the last two years,
found themselves in the spotlight.
They overcame the team that had
deprived them of a Colonial Athletic
Association crown by a mere 10
points one year earlier and won the
conference championship this season
handily against conference foe. the
Naval Academy.
The Pirates won a conference
championship during the 1985-86
season under Kobe's reign as well.
With all the accomplishments
ECU swimming has had in the past,
the future looks even brighter, and
more competitive. "Our future looks
good Kobe said. "We've done
some great things over the last
couple of years. Swimming here has
always been a pretty solid sport
Although ECU prides itself on
having a solid swimming and diving
program, Kobe warns that the
competition is closing in. According
to Kobe, many conference teams are
investing in upgrading their
facilities to better their swim
programs. "Ihe other conference
teams are slowly catching up Kobe
said "It's getting to be more
competitive. I hope we'll be able to
stay in front of them
Two teams in the Colonial
Athletic Association, American
University and William & Mary,
have built new pools. Other pools
have been getting "facility uplifts"
such as new timing systems and
other technological equiment
As ECU continues to thrive on
excellence, Kobe makes it a top
priority to recruit swimmers that can
start out successful. "We really don't
bring anyone into our program
that's not going to be a conference
scorer Kobe explained. 'Anybody
we bring in is going to be someone
who can help us immediately.
We've always had a saying that
'you're only as good as your
freshman class so we try to make
that freshman class a quality class
Recruiting begins in September
and is continued season round. The
biggest area the swimming staff has
been recruiting from for the 1989-90
season is North Carolina. This
works out well for the program
because it is less expensive to
recruit in-state due to the in-state
tuition. The rest of the recruits are
from Florida .
but, the women's swim and
dive program has also proven ts
ability to compete against the best.
Although they finished a
disappointing fourth in the CAA's
in the 1988-89 season, they finished
third in 1987-88 and second in 1986-
87. They continue to turn out top-
quality swimmers.
The latest recordbreakcr,
sophomore Meredith Bridgers, has
rewritten the rccordbooks in the 100
and 200-yard breaststroke events.
Not only did she set CAA records in
both breaststroke events, but she
also qualified for the National
Collegiate Athletic Association
championship meet in her events
and ended finishing 42nd in the
country.
Kobe sees Bridgcr's future in
the NCAA's as brighter than ever.
"She gdf real nervous dut there
Kobe said of Bridgcr's disappointing
finish in the NCAA's. "Now she
knows what it's all about. She had a
good learning experience. Before she
leaves here (ECU, she will be the
first all-American in division I
swimming
Along with Bridgers, there are
men who are hopefuls for future
NCAA competition. "We have a
couple of gu. who should be
knocking on the doors Kobe said,
"because they've had big drops the
last couple of years.
"It's a real tough meet Kobe
said of the NCAA's. "That just
shows you what type of quality
swimmer Meredith is that she made
it. It's a world-class meet
The swim team carries good
swimmers, not world-class
swimmers, according to Kobe, but
there are a few with the potential to
be world-class "so we always want
to keep our foot in the door for
them
Kobe said the guys are not far
off in reaching NCAA
qualifications. They are four seconds
off in the 200-yard events and two
seconds off in the 100-yard events.

dreams of pro career

Staff Writer
Plans to upgrade Harrington
Field are in the works and are to be
completed before next baseball sea-
son, according to Associate Athletic
Director for Internal Relations Henry
Van Sant.
Some items that will be up-
graded are: the construction of new
dugouts, scoreboards and concession
stands.
"This year the athletic depart-
ment installed a highly efficient
drainage system that the public just
cannot see, but it is an improve-
ment Van Sant said.
These are improvements to a
ability that is already attractive, and
the only problem is a temporary
construction road behind it.
The construction of the Sports
Medicine-Physical Education
Building is the reason for the con-
struction road behind Harrington
Field. The building has a scheduled
completion date for July 1, 1989 and
will be 82,000 square feet.
The ECU baseball team has
been to the NCAA playoffs more
times than any team in North
Carolina in the past 10 years.
There has been only one losing
baseball season in the last 39 years
for the East Carolina Pirates.
A tremendous growth in athlet-
ics and facilities is taking place at
ECU.

Basketbill season is over and
the tans an gone, but one Pirate
ha-ketball player is still hard at
work. Anc that person was the
Pirate leatkr during games and also
was the le&der at practice, Theodore
"Blue" Edwards.
A yojng man who considers
himsell euiet is anything but that
u hen he tteps on a basketball court.
Edwards led the Pirates in scoring
averaging 26.7 points per game. He
also led the team in rebounds and
Meals. He was second in assists
behind fellow senior Jeff Kelly.
In his first season at ECU,
Edwards made an automatic impact.
He averaged over 14 poinLs and five
rebomds per game. He shot 56.1
PCK-tnt from the field and 73.9
percent from the free throw line. He
dazzled the fans with his jumping
ability and a wide array ot
sjxxtacular dunks.
Then Edwards ran into a buzz-
saw. He had to sit out the 1987-88
season for disciplinary reasons. It
as a big dtsappoinment not only to
Fdjvards, but also to the fans who
had fallen in love with him.
Edwards made it very clear he
was not going to take a back scat to
anyone in the conference. All the
pre-season hoopla went to George
Mason senior Kenny Sanders and
Edwards made it a point to challenge
hint for player of the year. "I made it
one of my goals to be CAA player
of the year and I thought I could
challenge Kenny for that Edwards
said. "I didn't want to do it just for
myself, though. I thought it would
be good for the school and the
team
Being named CAA Playcr-of-
the-Year was not the only honor
Edwards received. After the great
season Edwards had, he was named
First Team CAA and also was voted
Honorable Mention All-America and
All-District Three Team in
Basketball Times. This is a
publication done by the United
States Basketball Writers
Association (USBWA). One more
honor was bestowed upon Edwards.
He was selected to play in the
Portsmouth Invitational Tournament
in April.
But now that the chants of
"Blue, Blue" have ended at Mingcs
Coliseum, what is next for Blue
Edwards? "It has always been a
dream of mine to play professional
basketball Edwards said. "I have
some areas to improve on before I
can make it, but I'll keep working
toward that goal. Right now,
though, the main goal is to improve
my game
Edwards' dream of playing
professional basketball may become
reality later this year when the
National Basketball Association
holds its draft. Several clubs have
shown interest in Edwards and they
will see him play one more time in
the PIT before the draft. Many of
these same scouts saw Edwards play
during the season and seemed to
have positive things to say about
him. If the NBA docs not work out,
Edwards should be a lock for a spot
on a Continental Basketball
Association (CBA) team.
It's Edwards' intensity for
winning and improving that has
made him a true team leader and a
great basketball player. And as he
continues to improve, the future
looks bright. But when this quiet
young man takes the floor to play
basketball, the pandamonium begins
and there is no such thing as quiet.

University hopes to add doctoral programs
By Rl.?Ai D GOUDIE
Staff Writer
When examining the prestige of
a university, educators first look at
the list of doctoral degrees the
school offers. East Carolina
University officials hope to increase
the amount of doctoral programs it
offers from seven to 12 within the
next few years.
According to Dr. Joseph G.
Boyette, associate vice chancellor
and dean of graduate studios . there
i an involved process in acquiring
new doctoral programs. The
General Administration must first
authorize the new plans.
Afterward , petitions are sent out
and the plan is submitted to the
Council for Graduate Studies.
After approval, the plan is sent
to the University System Council
which recommends it to the
prosit, "nt of the University System
Council. The next step involves the
University System Council presi-
dent recommending the plan to the
North Carolina Board of Governors.
This is where the final answer would
be decided as to the affirmation or
declination of the plan.
During this process, the chan-
cellor works with the president of
the University System Council to
reach an agreement.
Currently, there arc seven doc-
toral programs offered at East
Carolina. They are Bio-Chemistry,
Anatomy, Physics, Pharmacology,
Micro-Biology, Immunology and
Pathology.
The university is hoping to
start doctoral programs in five more
areas, according to Boyette. The
first and probably one of the most
important is Bio-Physics. This
program would bridge the academic
portion of East CarolinaThe
Physics Departmentwith the East
Carolina School of Medicine. This
would bring the two schools closer
together. The other four are Marino
Resource Management, English
with an emphasis in Rhetoric and
Composition, History with an em-
phasis in American History
particularly Maritime History and
Education with an emphasis in
Educational Leadership (EDD).
If the university is successful in
acquiring those doctoral programs, it
would aid in increasing the recogni-
tion of East Carolina as a highci
academic institution. This sitna-
tion would load to bettor funding for
the university which would a!
East Carolina to grow and pr.s
and eventually become as ??
known as North Carolina State a
the University ol North Carolina
Chapel Hill in terms ol doctoral I
grees.
East Carolina has the potential
to become the next big university.
It the universit) can acquire the new
doctoral programs, the base and
roots will have nurtured and the tree
ol growth and success v. ill sprout.
JOB
C
(continued from page 1)
There is a continuing demand
in research-related jobs said
Westmoreland. "If you can excel in
science, you will have many more
opportunities
ECU, once East Carolina
Teacher's College, continues to be
one of North Carolina's leading uni-
versities in education. This is good
because there is an increasing de-
mand for teachers according to
Westmoreland.
"There are a lot of oprx.iuuiues
for education majors Westmoreland
said. "One way for education majors
to increase their marketability in
teaching is to be as mobile as
possible
Future opportunities may co .e
in North Carolina for physical edu-
cation and foreign language teachers
as a basic education plan is now be-
ing implemented for public
schools.
In die area of business, the out-
look of accounting majors is about
the brightest.
In a survey of 1988 ECU
graduates, most accounting graduates
found jobs directly related to their
degree.
The "Occupational Ouilook
Handbook" says that employment of
accountants and auditors will grow
much faster than the average as
managers rely more on accounting
information to make business deci-
sions.
Also on the increase arc jobs in
computers and data processing fields.
Experience and education will be
needed as managers and administra-
tors of the future rely more on
computerized information systems.
Another area where jobs will
continue to be available for ECU
graduates is industrial technology.
Non-traditional students:
A growing part of ECU's future
We asked some ECU students what
they thought about East Carolina's
public image.
Jeff Denny (senior): "I think it's
awesome. It's improved a lot
Kim McMahan (senior): "It's
coming up more now. It's better
now than it was five or 10 years
ago. It's improving, because they
are leaning more toward education
trying to improve it
Nevin Bunnell (freshman):
"It's a big party school. But, if you
stick to what you're doing you
can get out of here with a
good education. It was my first
choice

ECU life continues for alumni
Bv DIANA DITZLKR
Staff Writer
University life for an
Carolina student docs not have to
end after graduation, according to
Cindy Kittrcll, associate director of
Institutional Advancement.
"The alumni continue to be a
part of the ECU family and can
maintain a relationship with the
university for the rest of their lives
Mrs. Kittrell said.
When students graduate from
East Carolina, they automatically
become a member of the ECU
Alumni Association. If someone
attended for one semester or quarter
they also belong to the association.
Active members in the
association are recognized by thetr
tst annual givings. Actives arc allowed
to vote for officers in the
association. "We wait a few years
for the graduates to get settled
financially before we ask them to
make a contribution Mrs. Kittrcll
said.
The big fundraiser occurs in the
fall with the Telefund. "it gives
alumni an opportunity to give back
to the university Mrs. Kittrell
said. The money raised goes to
programming, scholarships and
academics.
The association sponsors
alumni activities such as
Homecoming and Alumni Day.
amTmaprre fbtttftfrftf
different cities and regions across the
state and nation. Pig pickins,
basketball games and concerts
sponsored by different chapters help
bring together ECU alumni living
in that area. Mrs. Kittrcll said, "The
alumni chapters keep the alumni in
touch and involved with the
university
The association sponsors other
programs including trips and cruises
to various countries. It offers group

By the year 1990, demographic
experts say that non-traditional stu
dents will make up half of the stu-
dent bodies at most universities.
At East Carolina, we are seeing
the the trend of non-traditional stu-
dents who are quickly becoming the
new majority.
According to University
College director, Marion Sykes,
East Carolina is becoming an access
point for these students v? ho arc
generally older, have families, obli-
gations with work schedules and
commuting.
University College is a contact
point provided by ECU to offer as-
sistance on a one-to-one basis to
those students.
"Non-traditional students are not
your normal college students
Skes said 'They're not 18 or 19,
living in a dorm or apartment. They
have different work and family
responsibilities to consider
According to University
College records, the average age of
the non-traditional student is 2.
'TheaVfcxage commuting disiancfels

an average of a five-hour course
load.
The universit) is already seeing
an increase on non-traditional stu-
dents that work with University
College. In the Eall of 1984, 158
students were enrolled with the cen-
ter. In the Fall of 19S8, more than
600 students were using its services
The number of students that
Sykes and his staff handle do not
even begin to account for the num-
ber of non-traditional students that
are now enrolled at ECU.

University fees still on the rise;
funds go to surprising places
By SYLVIA BILLINGSLEY
Staff Writer
Twice a year, in June and
November, East Carolina University
students receive a letter from the
University that they do not enjoy
opening. This unwanted mail is the
tuition and fees for each semester
spent at ECU.
The bill needs to be paid and
usually is in order for the students to
receive the higher education that is
necessary to suive in tod
world.
The problems are that th
amount of the bills continue to
increase and a large percentage of the
bill goes to services the stude its are
unaware of.
These services are included in
the university fees section on the
bill. They are services very few of
us use or even know exist.
The following list breaks down
each element that makes up the
university fees section and shows
what the students paid for each
service during the 1988 - 1989
school year. The fees include
Student Government Association -
SI 1.75, transportation - $10, media
- S19.75, intramurals - S36, student
financial aid office - $2, student
union - S22.50, athletic fees - $145,
health and PE building - S6, Ficklen
Stadium - $15 and Mendenhall
S lout Center - $74. The total of
tl ?c o or the current school year
is 2. hat has more than doubled
i-j '0 . ars since the $162 charged
979.
The fact that the cost of an
education at ECU increases each year
is another thing most students are
unaware of. Information from the
office of John S. Bell, assistant
vice chancellor of business affairslrs,
shows that tuition and fees rise
approximately 10 percent each year.
The cost of attending the University
for a semester 10 years ago has risen
from $260 to next year's estimated
cost of $484.
The student financial aid office
may be needing more than $2 per
semester with the increase in
tuition.

180 Proof kicks it up in last show of seniesu

By DEANNA NEVGLOSKI

On Sahrday, local band 180
Proof played their last gig of the
semester at O'Rockefellers.
If you were there, you saw
nothing but non-stop rock-n-roll
action up on the stage The mem-
bers of this band are definitely
first-class musicians.
The night started when 180
Proof took the stage around mid-
night. The tiny club was packed
with people ready to do some rock-
n-roll partying.
At first, before the band came
on, 1 didn't know what to expect.
The guys in the band seemed cool,
but could thev rock-n-roll?
OH, YEAH! I couldn't believe
the talent 1 saw on that stage Sat-
urday night.
180 Pr(Mf opened up with an
Old Ratt tune called "U Got It
The band even showed a taste
ful sense of humor when bassist
Chad Richardson and guitarist
Mark Pomerans sported long-
haired wigs for the first two songs.
But the wigs came off and the
band began to show the crowd
that short-haired guys can rock-n
roll too!
1 was mesmerized by the
musicianship in this particular
band 1 even looked up the word
'musician It means a composer
or skilled performer.
These guys are skilled per-
formers.
They played well, they had
fun and the crowd went wild.
Other songs in the set included
Led Zeppelin's "Rock-n-Roll
Aerosmith's "Walk This Way
U2's "1 Will Follow The Roman-
tics "That's What I Like About
You and a "Rapper's Delight
There were a lot of cover tunes,
but 180 Proof played their own
brand of rock when they jammed
out to some great originals like
"Rape My Buzz and "I Need
Something Deeper Than That "
One oi the best things about
180 Proof is their musical style
and originality. They don't sound
like any other band. That was
impressive in itself.
Vocalist Mike Little hasa well-
balanced, rck-n-roll voice. He
doesn't copy any other singers and
prefers to have hisown vocal style.
He sounded awesome on vocals
when the band performed the
classic "Knockin' On Heaven's
Door
Drummer Berry Oliver is an
incredible musician I have never
seen anyone plav the drums like
that and still be able to smile and
interact with the crowd.
In two hours, he hardl)
stopped to rest. He was beatm?;
the heck out of those drums all
night long (and there were even a
few broken drumsticks)! Oliver
had a great drum solo during the
song "Wipe Out

'Agnes' compels audience
Janice Schreiber appeared in the East Carolina Playhouse's pro-
duction of "Agnes of God
By SCOTT MAXWELL
AuUtant Features Editor
John Pielmeier's "Agnes of
God" is a tense and troubling
mystery about a young nun sus-
pected of murdering her child It
follows the nun'scourt-appointed
psychiatrist, Dr. Martha Living-
stone (Janice Schreiber), as she
becomes emotionally involved
with her patient.
The young nun, Agnes (Can-
dace McKenzie), is defended by
her Mother Superior, Miriam Ruth
(Catherine Edwards). As Dr. Liv-
ingstone struggles to determine
whether Agnes should be found
competent to stand trial, she also
struggles with Mother Miriam and
with her own earlier rejection of
Catholicism.
Like any good psychological
drama, "Agnes" is riveting. It's
like a traffic accident: you don't
want to watch, but you have to. As
the play goes on, Dr. Livingstone
becomes obsessed with helping
Agnes. Agnes is a proving ground
for the doctor's beliefs: even as she
tries to free Agnes from thechurch,
she also tries to find in Agnes a
reason to believe in miracles.
Though the majority of the
play takes place in Dr. Living-
stone's office (or, as the program
points out, in her mind), all three
characters flow around the tiered
set as the action shifts smoothly
from the present to flashback and
back. This never becomes confus-
ing; thelightingdimsand becomes
patchy to indicate which scenes
are memory and which are actu-
ally happening.
McKenzie was stunningly
good as the innocent young nun.
She handled the character Agnes
beautifully, from her shy pleasure
in singing to her agonizing birth
pains
Edwards was not to be out-
done, however. As Mother
Miriam, she faced some agony of
her own? the character wants to
believe that the birth was a divine
conception and that Agnes was
not guilty of the child's murder,
even though the few available facts
indicate otherwise. Edwards
stalked Schreiber like a hungry
lion, as Miriam pointed out to Dr.
Livingstone that psychiatrists
haven't yet cornered the markets
on morality, reality or insight.
By contrast to her fellow ac
tresses, Schreiber's performance
was disappointing. She tried too
hard to manipulate the audience,
rather than let the power of the
play itself move them. Judging
fromheroul
in'Carnival 'earlierthis .im.it
would seem tLit Schreiber's
strength lies in comedy. This is
unfortunate, Since a stronger per
formance from her would have
made the pli J" unqualified
success.

While Cusack seems perfectly in

Skye fails in every way.
She is never convincing as a
scholarship recipient, a shy virgin
who discovers she loves sex, a
misled daughter, or even a girl in
love.
To be fair, some of this is due
to her inane dialogue. But its her
character that is inherently flawed.
Throughout the film she is wishy-
washy and can't make up her
mind, but at the end she suddenly
changes her mind and makes a
decisive stand against her father's
actions.
The main conflict in the film
centered around the question of
where she would ultimately place
her trust ? with the father who
betrayed her or the boyfriend she
just met. Not a fair situation, but
a realistic one.
Unfortunately, Crowe let the
script flounder. Such a situation
hasexplosive potential. But in true
Brat Pack tradition, it was a happy
ending for all, except the adults.
The best cha racters were never
developed. Lloyd's closest friends
were two girls, one of whom had
written 65 songs of angst about
her first boyfriend. The moments
when she came on screen were the
film's brightest, but like the rest of
this movie, they fell flat.
Other characters were tossed
in, then thrown out. The alcoholic
jock and the vomit-prone punk
were likeable, but they were used
in one scene and then never heard
from again.
The music in the movie tried
to play an important role. "In Your
Eyes from Peter Gabriel's "So"
Lp recurred throughout the film.
In the most emotional scene, Lloyd
drives up to Diane's house at twi-
light. He pulls out a box and holds
it over his head.
While she tosses and turns in
her bed, he stands outside, letting
Gabriel's song serenade her.
However, nothing comes of the
maneuver, and the viewer is left
with the feeling that whatever was
supposed to happen next, got left
on the cutting room floor.
The music score by Richard
Gibbs and Anne Dudley was nice,
but Nancy Wilson's additional
music stole their thunder. Nancy,
if you remember, is one of the
famous Wilson sisters of Heart,
and who does she happen to be
married to? Cameron Crowe. Isn't
that special?
Nepotism runs rampant in
"say anything Cusack's real-life
sister Joan also shows up in a few
cameo scenes as Lloyd's sister.
She's charming, but alsc a victim
of the Supporting Character Wast-

She is introduced as a single
mother whose husband has ap-
parently just left her. Though she
and Lloyd have a brief conflict
about this, that's apparently

that short-haired guys can rock-n-
roll too!
I was mesmerized by the
musicianship in this particular
band. I even looked up the word
"musician It means a composer
or skilled performer.
These guys are skilled per-
formers.
They played well, they had
fun and the crowd went wild.
Other songs in the set included
Led Zeppelin's "Rock-n-Roll
Aerosmith's "Walk This Way
U2's "1 Will Follow The Roman-
tics That's What I Like About
You and a "Rapper's Delight
There werea lot of cover tunes,
but 180 Proof played their own
brand of rock when they jammed
out to some great originals like
"Rape My Buzz and "I Need
Something Deeper Than That
One of the best things about
180 Proof is their musical style
and originality. They don't sound
like any other band. That was
impressive in itself.
Vocalist Mike Little has a well-
balanced, rock-n-roll voice. He
doesn't copy any other singers and
prefers to have hisown vocal style.
He sounded awesome on vocals
when the band performed the
classic "Knockin' On Heaven's
Door
Drummer Berry Oliver is an
incredible musician. I have never
seen anyone play the drums like
that and still be able to smile and
interact with the crowd.
In two hours, he hardly
stopped to rest. He was beating
the heck out of those drums all
night long (and there were even a
few broken drumsticks)! Oliver
had a great drum solo during the
song "Wipe Out
Bassist Richardson changed
my views on the typical bass
player. He doesn't just stand
around plucking the strings on his
bass. Richardson is an outstand-
ing and talented bass player.
He's been playing since his
junior high days, but, again, I
couldn't believe the talent he dis-
played. He sounded especially
professional on George Thoro-
good's "Bad To The Bone" (and
that he was!).
Axe-master Pomerans was
incredible on the guitar. He is an
excellent musician with pure and
versatile rock-n-roll playing abil-
ity.
Pomerans can play with the
best. His tandem fretboard work-

Battle of the pitchers
Pirates drop conference finale to UNO W
By KRISTEN HALBERG
Stiff Writer
Both pitchers went the dis-
tance in Mondav night's battle for
first place in the Colonial Athletic
Association and the top seed in
the conference tournament, but in
the end, there could only be one
winner.
The deciding game of a three-
game stint between the East Caro-
lina Pirates and the UNC-
Wilmington Seahawks, held in
front of a packed 1 larrington Field.
went right to the wire, and then
some, as the two teams battled in
extra innings to decide bragging
rights. But, in the end, Tony Till-
man and the Seahawks would
come out on top 4-3 in a ten inning
battle.
Tillman, who is 2-3 for the
year, hasstruggled throughout the
season throwing strikes. "What 1
thought was remarkable about his
performance tonight ECU head
coach Gary Overton said about
Tillman, "was that he had trouble
throwing strikes carlv and we
chased some bad pitches. But,
when we stopped chasing bad
pitches, he regained his com-
pousureand camebackand threw
strikes when he had to
Jake Jacobs, who is 5-1 for the
year, lost his first game of the
season against the Seahawks.
Jacobs pitched against Tillman in
high school and never lost to him.
"It's nice to play against some-
body you know Jacobs said, "but
I really wanted to win that one
Tillman, who is from
Goldsboro, went to the same high
school as ECU outfielder John
Thomas.
Overton said the key to the
game was who would make the
least amount of errors while capi-
talizing on the errors of the other
team. "Every situation they had a
chance to take advanage of our
mistakes, thev did Overton said.
"Thcv were able to score after our
mistakes
UNC-W broke the tie in the
top of the tenth when Ed Stouden-
mire was safe at first on a throw-
ing error. He then advanced to
second on a sacrifice by Mark
Chamberlain and scored on a base
hit by Trent Mongero. This put the
Seahawks up for good, 4-3. "We
lost two extra inning games be-
cause we made mistakes Over-
ton said.
Sunday, The Pirates lost the
opener of the doubleheader in
extra innings when, in the top of
the ninth, an error by ECU al-
lowed Chamberlain to reach sec-
ond and score AI Frank Catucci.
"It was a great victory, but
that was a great college baseball
game UNC-W head coach Bobby
Guthrie said. "We had to get a
great pitching performance by
Tony Tillman and we got a great
performance He did a super job
but Jacobs did too. That's just a
super effort
But the Pirates' loss has not
hindered their enthusisam for the
upcomingCAA tournament. "We
need to regroup and get back to-
gether Overton said. "There's
nothing we need to change be-
cause I think we re playing very
fine baseball right now
1 don't think tonight has
bearing on the tourname
Jacobs said. "We're not going to
play any different just because they
beat us tonight. It just means we
have to play a different seeded
team. The guys are just playing so
well right now. It will just be a
showcase of who plays well at the
time. Coach Overton does a great
job getting us ready for it
"We were playing for not only
the number one seat but also a lot
of pride so we're a little disap-
pointed Overton said. "We
played a very fine ball club, but
hats off to us as well. Our guvs
played exceptionally well
John Thomas led the Pirates
in hitting going 2-4. Tommy Ea-
son was 1-3 with a double and
John Adams was 1-2, also with a
double.
This was the final conference
game for the Pirates as they finish
out the season with a 12-3 CAA
record. ECU lost one to confer-
ence foe James Madison and two
against UNC-W.
East Carolina is on the road
tonight against Old Dominion
University. They return to Har-
rington Field Friday when thev
face Virginia Common wealth at 7
p.m.

record, but UNC-W ended that on Monday. The Seahawks defeat-

Quarterbacks spark Pirates in scrimmage
By CHRIS SIEGEL
Sport rditor
The Pirate football team went
through their last scrimmage open
to the public in preparation for
Saturday's PurpleGold Scrim-
mage. The scrimmage is in con-
junction with the6th Annual Great
Pirate PurpleGold Pigskin Pigout
Partv which begins Thursday,
April 20 and concludes with the
Pirate baseball team playing Vir-
ginia Commonwealth at 7 p.m. at
Harrington Held.
The scrimmage wasoriginallv
scheduled to be held on Saturday,
but mother nature would not
cooperate. The heavy rains post-
poned the scrimmage till Sunday
afternoon.
The two and a half hour, 153
play scrinimage drew good re-
views from first-year head coach
Bill Lewis. "1 was really pleased
with the kids attitude today
Lewis said. "It's tough to come
out and practice on a Sundav. But,
I'm glad we didn't do anything
yesterday (Saturday), lt'sreal nice
to have good weather like we had
today
One of the things that pleased
Lewis the most was the play of his
quarterbacks. He was especially
impressed with the plav ot Travis
Hunter and Chad Grier. "The
quarterbacks handled a lot of dif-
ficult situations very well Lewis
said. "Travis Hunter did a lot of
good things out there today (Sun-
da)) and Chad Grier had his best
day of the spring
The Pirate offense once again
had a successful scrimmage. The
squad had 84 rushing plays for
340 yards and threw the ball 69
times gaining 407 yards. The Pi-
rates averaged 4.88 yards per at-
tempt on offense and scored 10
touchdowns.
Hunter was successful on five
of 11 passes for 57 yards and also
rushed the ball eight times for 79
yards. Grier threw for 149 vards
on a 12 for 23 performance. He
also connected on three touch-
down passes and threw two inter-
ceptions. As a team, the Pirates
completed 36 of 69 passes for 407
yards, six touchdowns and five
interceptions.
Hunter was the leading rusher
with his 79 yard performance.
Michael Rhett carried the ball 12
times for 71 yards and Willie Lewis
handled the ball 19 times, gaining
They ran for four touchdownsand
lost one fumble.
Hunter Gallimorc led the way
for the receivers. Gallimore
grabbed five passes for 77 yards.
Lewis hauled in six for 62 yards
and Bojack Davenport caught four
for 58 vards.
On defense, Chris Hall had a
standout performance. Hall had
two pass deflections, one fumble
recovery and an interception. Joe
Holmes also had a fine defensive
game as he had a sack and a tackle
for a loss. TimWolter led the sec-
ondary with two interceptions on

Senior hurler pitches in
Jacobs keeps quietly doing job
By CHRIS SIEGEL
Sports Editor
ECU rallies in second game
Pirates split pair with Seahawks
With all the press Jonathan
Jenkins and John White are re-
ceiving, there isone Pirate pitcher
who is quietly going about his
business. Senior hurler Jake Jacobs
has gone relatively unnoticed to
most this season, but his talent has
helped the Pirates to amass one of
its best records in history.
J
Coming in to the season as the
pitcher most were pointing to to
have a big year for the Pirates,
Jacobs has continued to pitch well
even though going unnoticed.
Jacobs has compiled a 5-0 mark on

3.46 ERA. He has pitched just over

A sweep by either team in the
doubleheader Sunday would ha ve
wrapped up the number one seed
in the Colonial Athletic Associa-
tion baseball tournament. But, the
tense rivalry between East Caro-
lina and UNC-Wilmington
wouldn't allow it to be that simple.
The two teams split Sunday
as UNC-W took the first game 5-3
in extra innings and ECU shutout
the Seahawks 9-0 in the second
game.
"We would've liked to play a
little better the second game
UNC-W head coach Bobby
Guthrie said. "We put everything
on the line in the first game. We
couldn't get that same intensity
going. You're playing a super ball
team. We feel like we're in good
shape. We beat them that onega.
wenccuec o beat them and set up
the championship game
But ECU head coach Gary
Overton was pleased with the
performance of the Pirates in both
games. "I really felt we played
well both games Overton said.
"We just weren't able to get the
hits at the right time in the first
game, and ironically, they all came
at the right time in the second
game
Johnathan Jenkins bounced
back in the second game for the
Pirates to increase his career rec-
ord to 14-1. Jenkins lost his first
game of the year in the first game
against the Seahawks after going
13 games without a loss.
UNC-W scored first in the
opener. In ihetopof the first, Mark
Chamberlain led off with a single
and was knocked in by Ed
Stoudenmire.
ECU came right back in the
bottom of the first to tie it up at 1-
1. Tommy Eason hit a double and
then scored on a single by Calvin
Brown.
The Pirates would then take a
short-lived lead in the second
inning when Steve Godin hit a
solo home run to push the Pirates
to 2-1.
But the Seahawks would co me
rightback in the third when Cham-
berlain hit a single, went to third
on a Trent Mangero sacrifice fly
and scored on Stoudenmire's
double. The score was tied again
at 2-2.
The fourth inning was silent
for both teams but ECU would
again take a 3-2 lead in the fifth.
Thomas hit a single, went to sec-
ond on a sacrifice fly by Adams
and scored on another sacrifice
fly, this time by Eason.
But the Seahawks came nght
baek in the sixth inning and forced
the game to go into extra innings.
Mike Ferrell opened withadouble,
went to third on a Tom Heitler
single and later came in to tie the
game at 3-3.
UNC-W scored first in extra
inning play when Al Frank Ca-
tucci was hit by a pitch and ad-
vanced to first. Joe Catalano then
hit a single and advanced Catucci
to second. Chamberlain doubled
to right field to score Catucci and
the Seahawks were up 4-3. Trent
Mongero added one more to the
Wilmington lead with a sacrifice
fly that scored Catalano.
The Pirates quickly went to
work in the bottom of the ninth to
try to save the game. Riggs led off
with a single up the middle and
after Andrews hit a fly out, Ritchie
singled on a grounder to left field.
John Thomas walked and the Pi-
rates had the bases loaded and
one out. But the Pirate threat was
halted when the Seahawks made
a double play of f of a Chris Cauble
grounder.
Riggs was three for four on
the game to lead the Pirates in
their loss while Godi n was two for
four. For the Seahawks, Chamber-
lain was three for four.
ECU took the lead right from
the start in the second game. In the
bottom of the first, John Thomas
walked. John Adams lined a hit
up the middle for a single which
advanced Thomas to third.
Tommy Eason then got his 32 RBI

strikeouts, more than one per
i nni ng. Of his seven games started,
he has pitched five complete
games.
"Undoubtedly my role has
changed Jacobs said. "A lot of
people were looking for me to have
a big year. I just want to help the
team and see the team have a big
year Although Jacobs may not
be the ace of the staff in the pub-
lic's eyes, his role has been impor-
tant to the success of the Pirates.
Jacobs wasn't always inter-
ested in pitching. Jacobs father and
brother both played professional
baseball, but Jacobs says he was
never pressed into playing base-
ball. He began pitching when he
was in the eighth or ninth grade
and never really enjoyed it until
he was a senior in high school. "I
was a second baseman before I
started pitching. I've always been
a position player at heart, but
pitching was something I was
good at so I stuck with it
And the Pirates are glad he
has. Over his first two years, Jacobs
proved his worth to the Pirate
squad. Over those two seasons,
Jacobs career record was 10-0. He
struck out 84 batters, while pitch-
ing two complete games. He was
used mainly in a relief role and
earned three saves over those two
years.
Last season, Jacobs was
moved in to the starting rotation,
which proved to be a valuable
move on the part of head coach
Gary Overton. Jacobs appeared in
14 games and had a record of 7-4.
The seven wins was the fifth best
total in the CAA in 1988. He was
sixth in theconferencein ERA with
a mark of 3.32 and he was 10th in
the league with 41 strikeouts. His
first win of the season was his 11 th
straight victory, which was an
ECU record until it was broken
this season by Jenkins.
Jacobs is the only senior on
the Pirate pitching staff, but feels
no pressure to be a leader among
the pitchers. "The guys are really
mature. The staff is really close
and wecommunicate well Jacobs
said. "We all know our roles and
what we need to do to help. I'm
not the leader of the staff. We
basically help each other. I try to
help them, just as they try to help
me
Jacobs doesn't take the credit
for his success this season. He feels
as the pitching staff as a whole
improves, so do the individual
pitchers. He also gives credit to
the seven players behind him and
the man catching. "The defense
behind us (the pitchers) is great.
Their play is why we are success-
ful Jacobs said. "Coach Overton
stresses defense and good defense
makes the pitchers look better
Jacobs had nothing but posi-
tive things to say about this year's
team, but like all good players he
was a little critical of his own
performance. "I'm throwing the
ball physically well, but I'm not
pitching well Jacobs said. He
feels he is throwing the ball hard
and his control is good, he is just
not pitching to batters and certain
situations well. "I'm giving up a
lot of hits and there seems to be
one inning a game were th n js
just don't go well. V. w
that inning out, I th - I I much
better. I'm hoping to do that and
reach my peak acobs added.
Jacobs takes e r. little of the
credit for his success. l gives a
lot of the credit to his high school
coach, Doyle Whitfield ot South-
ern Wayne High School. He also
thinks ECL Coach Billy Best ha-
aided in his improvement but
credits former-Pirate pitcher
Winfred Johnson with helj
him. "A big part of my success has
come out of my freshman year
from plaving with Winfred. He
really helped me and ta i . a
lot about baseball Jacobs said.
Unlike Johnson and his team-
mate Jenkins, Jacobs :a moreoi a
finesse style pitcher. le doesn I
throw the ball exceptionally hard
but likes to throw breaking pitches
His best pitch is the slider. "The
slider is my out pitch, it breaks
more than most other pitchers'
sliders and it's not quite as hard.
But when 1 need a pitch thai s
what I go to acobs
Jacobs immediate goal as a
ball player is to go through! the
rest of the season undefeated. 1 le
would like to finish his career at
ECU with a good season. 1 le
would also like to pitch well in
post-season competition. ! want
to pitch well in the CAA tourna-
ment. 1 haven't pitched to well in
the tournament in the pastJacobs
said.
Looking further down the
road, Jacobs well be doing an in-
ternship at Boardwalk and Rase-
ball in marketing. Roardnalkand
Baseball is a baseball theme park
in Florida and should tit ne,ht into
Jacobs' personality. But playing
more baseball is still in Jacobs
mind. "1 hope to plav more base
ball, that hope is still alive. I just
want a shot to see what its like
Jacobs said. Jacobs said he would
enjoy playing for the Chicago Cubs
because of the area and that he
thinks the players enjoy playing
in Chicago.
As with most senior athletes,
Jacobs not only looks to the fu ture
but he has also taken time to re-
flect on the past. Jacobs recalls two

things in his career that stand out.
"I think the biggest thrill of my
career was going to regionals in
1987. We left with a feeling that
we could play with those guvs
and that we had as much talent as
they did Jacobs said. The other
highlight of his career was being
there to see Winfred Johnson break
the ECU all-time home run rec-
ord. "It was a thrill to be here to
see 'Cat' break the record. It was a
part of ECU history. I was really
excited to be a part of it added
Jacobs.
"Baseball was something I
excelled at, so I stuck with it. I was
never going to be a great four sport
athlete, so I stuck to baseball
Jacobs said. His talent has quietly
made him a solid fixture in the
Pirate rotation and his departure
will be felt next season.
