Vol. 63 No. 106 Thursday November 30,1989 Greenville, NC Circulation 12,000 20 Pages Students appear in court Judge delays decisions for 'riot' defendants By SHANNON BUCKLEY Staff Wnlet All 134 students arrested on Halloween at the Tar River Es- tates "riot" attended court on Wednesday only to find that their cases were to be delayed. Of the 134 students, only 54 requested to have their cases con- tinued, according to a court source. The other 80 students' cases were delayed by Judge W. Russell Duke Jr. after a motion was made by Attorney James T. Cheatham to restrict the use of unedited or "out" tapes that werelisted on the subpe- ona issued to WNCT-TV (Chan- nel 9) by the state of North Caro- lina. According to Duke, the trials were delayed because neither Betsy Warren, assistant district attorney, nor Cheatham, WNCT- TV'sattorney, could present briefs in support of their argument. Both attorneys were given until Dec. 5 to present their arguments to the judge. Although WNCT-TV asked that their unedited tapes not be used in the courtroom, thev did offer the tapes that had already been broadcast. Cheatham con- tended that the subpeonad "out" tapes, which ha ve not been shown to the public, "are the same as a reporter's notes and that WNCT- TV "has the priviledge not to pro- duce the tapes According to Cheatham, re- quiring WNCT-TV to tender these tapes would be forcing the me- dium to be "an investigative arm ?e which would "con- vert the press into being an advo- cate for the state A forced sur- render of the "out" tapes "would be an unconstitutional infringe- ment of the First Amendment rights of Freedom of the Press the defense attorney said. In addition to his argument, Cheatham said that the state must prove that the information gath- ered by WNCT-TV was unavail- able to them. Police had a total of 75 people at the crime scene, and two video cameras were there taping. This fact proves that the information WNCT-TV has was available to the city, according to Cheatham. "These tapes are evidence of crimes or lack of crimes that oc- curred this (Halloween) evening Warren said in response to Cheatham's arguments. Accord- ing to Warren, the "out" tapes "could just as easily clear some- one as they could show that some- one is involved Warren questioned the fact that a First Amendment right would be violated by surrender- ing the tapes. In fact, Warren said, WNCT-TV's "subsequent actions waived their right of priviledge According to Warren, WNCT-TV showed these tapes to Captain Nichols of the Greenville Police Department, therefore waiving their right of priviledge. According to the assistant district attorney, the submission of these tapes would in no way restrict WNCT-TV from gather- ing information in the future. She said, "The state chose to take the See COURT, page 2 Val Madden works on a scale model for the building signs which will be on display at Mendenhall Student Center on Monday (Photo by Garrett Killian ?

AI celebrates International Declaration of Human Rights By DAVID AMES Spatial to Tha tax Caml i.i.n Local Amnesty International (AI) members will be sharing in- formation and collecting signa- tures on petitions Friday on the East Carolina campus. Such ac- tivities, being held throughout the world, are designed to commemo- rate the anniversary of the signing of the International Declaration of Human Rights. LocalGroup402 members will be in front of the Student Stores from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to answer questions about the work of AI and to explain the petitions. AI,a world widehuman rights organization, works impartially to free prisoners of conscience who have neither used nor advocated violence, for fair and prompt trials for all political prisoners, and to abolish torture and executions. A large percentage of the local ac- tive membership is ECU students, faculty and staff. A special focus of the petition drive will be the protesting of recent events in China in which hundreds of unarmed civilians, many of whom were students, were killed by government troops. While much of the world atten- tion on the June 3 killings has diminished, AI is concerned that arrests continue, summary trials are taking place and judicial exe- See AMNESTY, page 2 Art students propose new ideas for signs ByJAYHAVERTY Special la The East Carolinian Many conversations on the campus are dominated by the students' negative opinions of the new building signs here at East Carolina University. To change this, two classes in ECU'S Depart- ment of Communication Arts are developing 21 new signs which will be on display Monday in Mendenhall. These should pro- vide more options for our admini- stration to review, according to Craig Malmrose, a Communica- tion Arts professor. The two typography classes are under the direction of profes- sors Malmrose and Donal Sexaur. The students are working stead ily to finish the drawings and models for the Monday review. The stu- dent-designers are encouraging their peers to review their works and submit comments about the designs to aid in their develop- ment. New experimental signs are no w in front of approximately five buildings on campus, but Malmrose believes the students are not content with these choices. Many of the students do not like the choices, such as the "tomb- stone" in front of Flanagan. Malmrose said he wants to see a change. "Signage on campus is not the very best possible. If thousands and hundreds of thou- sands of dollars are spent on the building, then the sign in front of the building should be represen- tative, and not cardboard The signs that are replace- ments for the old "mobile home" ones are only here for a short pe- riod of time. These signs are strictly temporary, which explains the simple construction and the dif- ferences in all of them. The pres- ent prototypes will be removed when the final decision is made as to which design will be used. The 21 students who are de- signing the alternatives are using some traditional elements in their work, such as the arches that appear frequently in the university's architecture. Some of the new designs also utilize mod- ernistic features that will update the atmosphere of the school. Malmrose said he believesthat organic tones such as shades of beige, brown and off-whites are the best colors to use on the signs as accents to the buildings. He said he would like to see a serif script used for the lettering, which is very traditional. Malmrose said he dislikes the present layout of the signs. "The type has to have hierarchy, the letter spacing on the signs on campus is horrible Each student who submitted an idea for new designs is respon- sible for a series of sketches and an actual model for Monday's stu- dent review. The only guidelines for the sign are size and the inclu- sion of the building's name. Items such as the new university logo and color are optional. Jim Lanier, vice chancellor of Institutional Advancement, said heackno wledges Monday's show- ing and believes a university rep- resentative, such as the university architect, will be present to study the exhibits. ECU's plan is a grad- ual one according to Lanier, "we simply will replace the older signs first, then, over a period of time, we will replace them all Each display has required an average of 30 hours of work from the creator each week, and several weeks have been utilized. Malmrose is urging the students to view the models on Monday, and submit their comments. Malmrose was a member of the Campus Beautification Com- mittee, which disbanded in April 1988 after submitting its report "Planning for an Academic Envi- ronment" to the university ad- ministration. The report was compiled by the group to point out changes that should be made on campus. Malmrose teaches Communi- cation Arts classes at East Caro- lina such as Communication Arts Survey,Typography, and Graphic Design I. He began his work at ECU in 1985, the same year he graduated from Rochester Insti- tute of Technology in New York. Health students volunteer for community services K( l News Bureau The students in the freshman- dominated Health lOOOclassesare being urged to volunteer their time to worthy cau ses in exchange for a couple of points added to their grades at the end of the semester. It's an unusual exercise funded by the federal government to promote volunteerism. "The response from both the students and the community has been overwhelminglly positive said Judy B. Baker, a health educa- tion instructor in the Department of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Safety (HPERS). "We had no idea when we started the program it would turn into something like this she said. Beginning last spring, stu- dents taking Health is a Modern Society (Health 1000), a required course, were told they could get two extra credit points by volun- teering for at least five hours of work with one of 26 community agencies. A total of 249 students signed up. When their working hours were tallied the total came to 4,096 hours ? more than 16 hours per student. "The objective is to instill in them the importance of commu- nity service and hope that it will become a part of their lives said Baker. So far, she said, the project seems to be working. The student volunteers do an assortment of jobs for such or- ganizations as the American Red Cross, Council on the Aging, the Boys Club, and a program for ter- minally ill children called the Dream Factory. For the Red Cross the students can donate blood or help with registration during blood drives. They help package food and deliver meais, produce newslet- ters and give musical programs for the elderly. At the Boys Club they serve as tutors, teach arts and crafts and workin the game rooms. In the Shelter for Battered Women, students help care for children while mothers attend support groups. Last spring when the Dream Factory needed volunteers to help with a television fund raiser they called ECU. The students re- sponded and the agency got all of the volunteers it needed for the project. "The biggest thing they are doing right now is providing a service to the community Baker said. She said many of the volun- teers have been deeply affected by their experiences. She said stu- dents often get attached to the programs with which they are working and continue to volun- teer.

The project is set up as a vol- unteer effort and most but not all of the 57 sections of the Health 1000 courses taught at ECU are participating. Baker said partici- pation is up to the students and to the instructors of the course. She said research is being done to see how many students do more than the five hours required for the extra credit and how many continue to volunteer later as a result of the program. "We hope to catch the stu- dents early in their college experi- ence hoping that this will con- tinue Baker said. So far, the response both stu- dents and from the agencies has been good.

Conservation International combines an integrated approach to conservation, not only through research, but also through the involvement of the public in their projects from farmers to congress- men. The focus is on involving a broad understanding and team approach to today's ecological problems. In 1987 the organiza- tion pioneered the first ever "dept- for-nature" swap. Although their headquarters is in Washington, D.C their ma- jor projects exist in Latin America and various third world countries. Among these countries involved are Mexico, Bolivia, Costa Rica and Panama. They are presently initi- ating a major project in New Guinea. The presentation is sponsored by the Latin American Area Stud- ies Committee, the Office of Inter- national Studies, and the ECU Chapter of Sigma Xi. A brief infor- mation reception will follow the meeting.

The courtroom emptied when the judge delayed all the Halow- een "riot" cases. The faces of the students showed disapointment as they shuffled out of the court- room. "It was just a waste of time.

What is it? MDMA (N-Methy-3, 4 meth- ylenedtoxy amphetamine) or blot- ter known as "Ecstasv" is a mem- ber ot a family of semi-synthetic chemicals known as hallucino- genic amphetamines. Ecstasy was originally tested, and legally shelved as an appetite suppressant in 114. It broke into the streets in the late 1960's. In 1985 up to 30,000 doses ot ecstasv were sold on the street per month In July, 1985 atter research studies indicated that MDMA causes neurological and brain damage. the US Drug Enforcement Admini- stration banned the legal use of the drug Today, MPMA is listed as a Schedule ! controlled substance. This means that, like heroin, it is not recognized as having any le- gitimate use's and is illegal under all circumstances. On the street, MDMA is sold in a powder or capsule form and can be inhaled, injected or swal- lowed Effects oi the drug begin within 30 minutes and may last 4- 6 hours. Many early reportsof the drug were enthusiastic and claimed euphoric like "ecstatic" feelings in its users. More recent informa- tion has concentrated on the many negative effects of this drug.

Studies indicate drinking water is contaminated By NATHANIEL MEAD Stall Hnlrr Earlier this year, ECU marine geologist Stan Riggs and cowork- ers studying the Pamlico River Estuary reported five "hotspots well-defined ones where concen- trations ot toxic heavy metals run up to 25 times higher than the rest of th. estuaro. "E xperts trom the Environmental Protection Agency were sent out to assess the situ- ation, but concluded there was no hazard A month later, however, the EPA was forced to retract their statement and even conceded that some nearby towns' drinking water supplies were in danger ot contamination. One of these "hotspots lo- cated off Texasgulf Co a larger fertilizer plant, showed extremely high concentrations of the heavy metal, cadmium. Cadmium occurs naturally in phosphate ore, which Texasgulf mines from land along the river. Since cadmium also occurs in phosphate-based fertil- izers, agricultural runoff may also release small amounts of the metal into the system. Other "hotspots" were linked with large mannas on the river copper-based paint is used on boat hulls to discourage barnacle growth ? and to phosphate-based fertilizer runt iff trom farms. A fifth hotspot, showing high levels of manv toxic metals, was thought to be linked with an old pesticide dump. Heavy metals are ot critical interest for several reasons. Natu- rally present in our environment, mam of these elements are essen- tial to health in minor concentra- tions but are often highly toxic when present in excess. For ex- ample, the body requires trace amountsot zinc.copper, and chro- mium. At slightly higher concen- trations, however, these same ele- ments can be deadly. 1 leavv metals are also unques- tionably the most persistent of pollutants on Earth, savs Dr. lames B. Robertson, a certified toxkrolo- gist of the HCU Department of Environmental Health. "Unlike better known environmental pol- lutants such as PPT, TCBs, di- oxin, mirex, and plastics, heavy metals have no possibility of breaking down. They are never biodegradable says Robertson. "Indeed, some estuarine organ- isms can metabolize heavy met- als, such as mercury, into more toxic forms. This is what happened in Minimata Bav, Japan, when UVi people became deformed and deranged from eating mercury- tainted seafood Given their inexorable persis- tence, it comes as no surprise that heavy metals plagued humankind in previous eras.

MATTHBV RlCHTER, CcvnMwgr, Tracy Weed, pabeimMmga fff Parker, s.ii Beth Lupton, November 30, 1 OPINION Page 4 We're on our own Picture this: You're 35 years old, on your way to work and you get arrested. You are a victim of blatant discrimination, so you approach the company you're representing to ask for legal assistance. You're denied. Not onlv are you denved that counsel, but you're told that you really weren't a representative of the company that particular dav and subse- quently will receive no support. Hoes this seem far-fetched? It is. You would have to be in your earlv twenties and a college student for the storv-linc to fall into place. Thomas Walters, the general manager of The Buccaneer and a free-lance photo journalist, is just one of the many persons arrested at Tar River Apartments on Hal- loween. He and manv others were arrested that night for failing to disperse from a partv they never attended. Cuffs wore slapped on Walters' wrists and his rights were denied, as captured bv local newsta- tions. The Buccaneer, The East Carolinian, and The Daily Reflector all partook of the pictures Walters later took at the police station downtown. By then his camera was returned to him. The Media Board came out in support of him but the administration, par for the course, washed their hands of the matter Walters is a typical student who was doing his job. Other journalists and camera- men were not arrested. If thev had looked like "just another college student" then perhaps they would have been. What will bo the next discrimination for our age group? The Greenville police were college student hungry on Halloween. Thev made it clear that we're looked at as college students first ? a group they've stereotyped with a negative image ? and rights such as the first Amendment, arc of no concern when dealing with us. Students must continue to fight the attitude the city displayed of "putting those college students down Whether you were delivering a piza or being the designated driver, you would have been arrested if you were so much as across the street from Tar River Apartments on Halloween. To drill or not to drill is the question By Nathaniel Mead Uitonil Columnist When was the last time vou took a good long walk on the beach For me, it was just recently, over Thanksgiving break. Chi Sat- urday- the water looked especially fresh. At sunset 1 spotted an un- dulating line of low-flving peli- cans nearly skimmed the shim- mering white crescent of a perfect wave. The pristine Carolina coast has so much magic, even during the colder seasons. That magic could be lost, however, if we allow Mobil todrill for natural gas and oil 45 miles offshore. Sadly, it seems the oil spill that blackened the Alaskan coast aroused onlv passing na- tional concern over offshore oil operations. Here in North Caro- lina, public scrutiny of Mobil Oil Corps plan to search for natural gas off the Outer Banks has been weak indeed. The last public hear- ing I attended, I counted onlv four college age people. Mobil and federal officials have continually described the drilling as "low-risk They say such exploratory drilling seldom causes oil spills. They say the tinv compu ter moni tors along the forty five mile pipeline will detect all leaks if they occur. And even if a spill does occur, the experts say it can lie contained by modern tech- nology. That's the same line they fed the Alaskans before the Exxon Valdez permanently tainted the magnificent Alaskan coastline. The slew of oily accidents occurring this year ?five spills in themonthof Junealone!? clearly shows the need for more exten- sive environmental studies before any drilling isdone near the Outer Banks. One of the difficult ques- tions, as yet unanswered, is how we are to assess risk in an area that regularly experiences some of the most turbulent offshore weather in the world. Perhaps a more crucial ques- tion is, what will happen if Mobil finds oil? Of course, they will push to drill, and they will pro- vide plenty of glossy incentives for that to occur. For example, coastal residents will receive tax breaks and job opportunities. Unfortunately, the super-rich oil industry has tremendous power in Congress. George Bush, himself once a Texas oilman, is a leading scion of the Rockefeller oil monopoly. Rest assured: If oil is discovered, then federal approval is a given. It's not for nothing that Bush waited two long weeks be- fore even commenting on the Alaskan oil disaster. Moreover, there is no future in fossil fuels. The once enormous reserves of this nonrenewable resource are rapidly dwindling. and the pollution thev cause is no longer acceptable. Despite this reality, the ReaganBush team slashed funding for conservation bv 70,research and development of renewable energy sources bv 83randautoefficiency standards rolled back from 27.5 to 26 miles per gallon. I et's not give them anv more incentive for such foolhardv policies Given our present air pollution situation, promotion of solar energy and other renewable energy technologies is our global mandate TheOuterBanksisabad place to drill for more than merely aes- thetic reasons. It also encloses the second largest estuarv after Che- sapeake Bay and the most pro- ductive estuarv for its size. Of course, in the event of a large spill, most of the seabirds and marine mammals which now grace our coasts and estuaries will die and will never be adequately replaced. How high a price are we willing to pay? Are we willing to lose our fishing and tourist industries if an accident occurs? Recently I received a mam- moth Environmental Report (ER) ?1,500 pages ? from the Depart- ment of the Interior's Minerals Management Service (MMS), which monitors offshore oil de- velopment, on proposed drilling off the Outer Banks. "This Envi- ronmental Report is the most comprehensive analysis ever con- ducted on a proposed exploration well in the history of the OCS program says MMS Deputy Director Ed Cassidy. "Consider- able credit is due to MMS's environmental and technical ex- perts who have worked practi- cally around-the-clock to make this draft ER available on sched- ule The report was visually im- pressive, but who would read such a voluminous and highly techni- cal document? Of course, the re- port could not begin to answer the most crucial question of whether or not a spill will enrcur with such operation. Risk is a most dubious concept when it comes to environ- mental catastrophes on the scale of the oil-slimed beaches of Prince William Sound and the Gulf of Alaska. Just take a look on the mapand imagine the sameamount of coastline affected on our Outer Banks. Goodbye beaches, goodbye estuary, goodbye East Carolina. Speaking of Alaska, it's inter- esting to note parallels between Alaska and North Carolina. Nine of every ten Alaskans supported the Alaska stateofficials' effortsin Congress to open the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas exploration. Ostensibly, the people were poor and wanted an economic boost. (All residents now qualify for an annual oil dividend.) The oil com- panies' main selling point wasalso quite enticing and vaguely famil- iar "Trust us ? we've got the ability and the record to protect the environment and give you more jobs Sadly, many North Carolinians are buying the same line. Finally, any further oil devel- opment will promote the green- house effect, which threatens to alter global climate patterns in potentially catastrophic ways. Indeed, if ice caps melt and ocean levels rise as predicted to occur with global warming, we will not have any Outer Banks at all! And as most kidscan tell you, the major cause of the greenhouse effect is the burning of oil and other fossil fuels. Let's begin weaning our- selves instead of reinforcing our selfish gluttony. MMS has scheduled four public hearings to gather com- ments on the draft ER. The closest one to Greenville will be at the Beaufort Community College in Washington (about 22 miles bi- cycle ride) on December 6. Each hearing will have two sessions, the first beginning at 3 p.m to 6 p.m. and the second from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Oral presentations may be supplemented by written com- ments, though such presentations must be limited to 10 minutes. Anyone who values the white sands and awesome surf of North Carolina beaches should attend the MMS hearing. Anyone who cares about our own future, not to mention our children's, should attend. Anyone who thinks off- shore oil drilling is a good thing, don't bother coming ? you are already well represented by oil officials on the MMS staff, in Congress, and by the President himself. Incidentally, President Bush says we need to drill offshore because we need the oil. But we need the coastal wildlife too, and our beloved estuary?both parts of the great ecological chain that makes our planet habitable, and both irreplaceable. Oil that re- mains in the ground, however, can be replaced (by solar, wind power, etc.) if there's the human will to do so?that is, if wo uV people are willing. The long-term, global view sees the oil issue as fundamen- tally an issue of survival. Mature human beings are concerned not only with today, but also with tomorrow and the future of hu- manity decades from now. It's time to grow up and take stock of our future. Even if you don't plant to speak out, please make your presence felt in Washington, N.C on December 6. Anyone with questions about the MMS report can call Tom Perlic of the Sierra Club at 946-9306, in Washington. What is there to be afraid of ? To the editor. Most people are afraid of snakesand manvcouldn t be paid to even touch one. Yet, most snakes aren't poisonous, and theories that are take fewer lives than do bees and wasps and other stingers. And, most people don't even venture to the edge of a cliff Scared1 lu A sensible On the other hand, most people are terrified bv AIDS. A massive medical effort is being made against it. But this always deadly disease could be stopped by just avoiding homosexual prac- tices, promiscuous sex. and shar- ing drug needles. And, drugs? Whv use anv il- legal drugs1 Thev destroy, whether smoked, sniffed, or in- jected. Onlv stupid people ruin themselves. But what about cigarettes? They contribute to more fatal cancer, heart and c irculatory, and other disease's than anything else common and totally unnecessary use today. And what about liquor? It causes illness, deprives families, destroys homes, puts drunk driv- ers on the roads, and kills inno- cent people. Most people would rather tal k about snakes and cliffs and AIDs ? even, thing is just plain "med- dling" (especially when those involved are college students). Hal Snvder Graduate Assistant Department of English Free choice or birth control? To the editor: In their attempt to seize the moral high ground in the abortion debate, pro-abortionists insists on theprochoice" label. They claim they are protecting the principles of individual liberty ? "We must be able to make free choices in our lives with minimal government intrusion" ? rather than advocat- ing abortion per so as a form of birth control. But pro-abortion groups are hypocritical and inconsistent when applying the principle of choice to other policy areas. For example, the National Education Association's official position on abortion is pro- choice Yet this is the same or- ganization which adamantly opposes the idea oi giving low- income parents a choice as to where they send their children to school ? perhaps by supplying them with education vouchers. Those who claim that we should have the "freedom to choose" to take a way the constitu- tionally-protected right to life of an innocent unborn child are NOT prochoice neither where abor- tion is concerned, nor in a host of other areas. To be philosophically consis- tent, those who call themselves prochoice" should agree that: An American should have the right to own a gun. An individual should have the right to join a union, but should never be required to join a union to work. A worker and an employer should be permitted to freely en- ter into a contract for work at any level of pay, without the shackles of a government minimum wage. An employer should be per- mitted to hire anv worker regard- less of their race or sex. Quotas, affirmativeaction and comparable worth are NOT pro-choice. 'Taxpayers should not be forced to fund an activity that they might find morally offensive, such as abortion lustin Sturz Senior English Major The time isn't yet upon us To the editor: An interesting right-wing group has sett led in Montana next to Yellowstone Park. Their leader, a woman named "Prophet (or "Profit") has raked in enough dough so that thev are now en- sconced on 33 thousand acres of prime land on which thev are fran- tically build inghumongous bomb shelters in preparation for the impeding economic collapse and nuclear doomsday predicted by Prophet to occur in 1990 "accord- ing to the Book of Revelation My opinion is thev are "jump- ing the gun" just a little, for the time is not quite vet. The Nuke War is ahead vet bv eight to twelve years, so relax Credit debt will much sooner bring the economic collapse of capitalism like the house of cards that it is. We are looking down the pike only two, maybe three years to the CWD (Coming World Expression). Bv 1992 it's all going precipitously down the tubes. Like the quintessential bov scout with his waterproof con- tainer of matches and compass, we need to BE PREPARED. Those who are well prepared have a chance to survive. In that respect, the Prophet and her followers are on the right track. You can bet the super rich bankers will survive come economic collapseor nuclear war. Our government is prepar- ing to survive although it cares very little how many civilians die in either the CWD or the Thirty Minute War. Man dreams of having a time machine to go "back to the future" and return. Most of those who survive the CWD to witness the Thirty Minute War on H-Day will die of radiation sickness like rats in a sewer. Recently, an anonymous in- dividual told me: "You have the most valuable asset of all, TIME No boss, no company, no time clock owns your time. Millions of people have money and wish they had time. You cannot truthfully say. Time is Money There is no comparison. Of those two, TIME is most unequivocally valuable As the hands on our watches spin ever faster, we search for a bridge between TIME, SPACE and MIND. Our days remaining ap- pear numbered. Rule number one: Buy nothing on credit. Secondly, pay out or phase out all existing credit. If you are in a bind, default and face the consequences. If the creditor class were to drown in its own tears, our country, our pride in ourselves is not lost. The world will be a better place for it, once all is said and done!

H('l community that a great deal of suffering goes into each and ever fur coat. The main ingredient in every fur coat is suffering For each coat up to 40 animals must be killed These animals are either rand raised or trapped. If ranch rais d the animals are likely crowd into small cages that have win mesh floors which deform irritate the animals' feet. In addi tion, fur ranches don't fall under the Humane Slaughter Act, and as a result, the animals are usii electrocuted, gassed, suffocated or strangled, whichever is most economical and makes for the best pelt. If trapped, the animals ofl must wait in agonv for se i hours or even days to be kil Many chew their paws vt! t . - cape. The traps are indiscriminate, catching mother animals (wl babies will then starve), pets, and endangered species Over 1 the animals caught are non-target animals whose furs aren't valu able. A secondary purpose ot tru event is to inform people thai public sentiment is rapidlv rum ing against fur and that soon tin wearing of furs will likely be ta boo as is now the case in mam European countries, and therefore. the purchasing of a fur now is a bad investment.

In a unique partnership be tween business and education, the teachers were picked to partici- pate in the first Pitt County Teacher Executive Institute. For the past six weeks these teachers have spent one day a week in a different industrial or business plant learn- ing from business executives the leadership skills taught to their Heavy Metal caricatured after the 19th century hat-makers who used mercury in the production of hat felt. In modern times, the old-people's disease, Alzheimer's disease, has been associated with high levels of aluminum in the brain. With industry unconsciona- bly spewing effluents of all kinds into the environment, our mod- em food and water supply have become increasingly contami- nated with heavy metals. Herbi- cides and fungicides, designed to kill, tend to contain substantial amounts of arsenic and mercury and trace amounts of these sub stances will gradually accumulate in our fatty body tissues. As documented in Michael Weiner's Maximum Immunity (Houghton-Mifflin Co Boston. 186), slightly elevated exposures to cadmium, mercury, and lead will supress manv key aspects of immune function and increase one's susceptibility to infection. Even very low, theoretically safe levels of these metals may incur cumulative damage on the nen ous system, particular lv in grow ing children. Various free radicals (highly unstable and reactive molecules which cause tissue degeneration) are formed in the presence of common heavy met- als. Some of the earliest reports ot cadmium toxicity involved factory- workers exposed to cadmium oxide who then developed em- physema and, in some cases, fatal pneumonia. Besides phosphate- based fertilizers, which readily pass cadmium from soil to plants to animal, the metal can co me fro in cigarette smoke, elcctroplatine industry emissions, cadmium- plated trays and wise). ind sM! water that remains in contact with galvanized or black polyethylene pipes. In an August 15, 1987 article "High-Cadmium Diet: Recipe tor Stress? Science News reported on studies showing that cadmium increased anxiety and decreased stress-coping ability in rats. Cad- mium also threatens our vitality by lowering unavailability of zinc, which isessential to strong immu - nitv. Increasing concentrations of mercury are being detected in many freshwater fish and shell fish. Perhaps more within the realm of control, mercury exists in the silver amalgams used widely by dentists. Recent research indi cates that mercury may leach from silver fillings into the bloodstream to cause immune suppression and other toxic effects. As reported in the May 1984 journal of Prosthetic Dentistry,a dentist removed amal- gam fillings from three patients and observed a proportionate increasein key immunecellscalled T cells. When the amalgam was restored, the T cell levels dropped again, suggesting that amalgam fillings seriously depress this vita) cell population. Alloys of nickel. which is also used in dental work, may have a similar effect on immune function. Two other heavy metals of major concern are lead and alumi- num. Aluminum, the most abun- dant mineral in the soil, is increas- ingly released into the food chain by acid rain. It also presents a problem for those using alumi- num cookware ? particularly thoseusingaluminumcoffeepots Aluminum has been linked with neurological disorders, reduced bone density, and poor absorp- tion of minerals selenium and phosphorus. Lead, another common bypro- duct of arid rain, has recently been linked with a high incidence of learning disabilities in urban chil- dren. City people tend to have a lead level five-hundred times greater than our ancestors had, probably due to automobile ex- haust and other air pollution, lead- containing paints, and the pres- ence of lead in the typical Ameri- can diet and public water supply. According to George James in Nutrition and Killer Diseases. employees. Also included in the course was a tour of the six plants in order that teachers may share with their students and fellow teachers information about available re- sources in Pitt County. The six companies Burroughs WellcomeCoCanlina Telephone and Telegraph Co Pitt County Memorial Hospital, Procter and Gamble Paper Products Co Wachovia Bank and Trust Co. and Yale Materials and Handling Corporation ? also planned a (Noyes Publications, Park Ridge, N 1982) lead toxicity is associ- ated with brain damage, neuritis and kidney c nicer. Heavy Metal Solutions Of the many dimensions to the heavy metal problem, some are obviousK less amenable to change than others Operators of pulp mills and municipal treat- ment plan's discharge millions of gallons of metal contaminated water per day. In order to dis- harge v aste water at legal levels, these plants simply dilute the discharge, adding more water so the concentration ot metals re- mains low. But this still allows them to release large volumes of hea v metals into the rivers.lere government should require nu re stringent monitoring meas- ures or work to establish safei discharge strategies. Obviously heavy metal pollution must be dealt with at its source. Rather than usecopper-based paint, boat- owners ? ould allow the bamac les to grow, scraping them off pen- odically by hand. Rather than use the problem of dinner honoring the participants and their spouses as a concluding event. The Teacher Executive Insti- tute was planned by the Pitt County Educational Foundation. During the early spring, the N.C. Center for the Advancement of Teaching will host a weekend re- treat at Quail Roost near Chapel Hill for the participants to reflect upon what they have learned. The Institute has attracted attention from across the state as a first of its kind for teachers. Continued from page 3 chemicals, farmers could switch to organic methods. The more formidable hurdle will be to reori- ent big businesses such as Tex- asgulf and Weyerhauser, both of whom provide thousands of jobs and whose prime concern is short- term profit. Here the major ob- stacle is the mighty dollar. As heavy metals poison the human body, so does greed poison hu- man reason. Government will have to intervene, though admit- tedly this may mean waiting an- other four years. The second solution to the heavy-metal problem is to mini- mize human exposure. This can take various forms. If you eat fish, for example, the best choice is white-meat, saltwater fish, since that variety will contain little if any mercury. Other solutions, such as acti- vated carbon waterfilters, are based on commonsense?as long as you're still healthy enough to clearly consider them and take firm action.

The country six leaguered rulers, trving to placai th em boldened masses ledged t( up the Communist Part) s claim to total power and bring non Communist into the government this week. New party l ad Karel banek, however, said theom munists must remain a pn s in the workplace, and he reje ted demands that the party dissolve its paramilitary police foi i which has boon used tosr In a meeting w tion leaders Tuesday tl it I ed 11 straight days of huge protests demanding democracy, Commu- nist authorities promised to part with some power and end their constitutionally mandated politi- cal supremacy. "The future of the party re- quires giving up the monopoly of power Urbanek told 3,500Com- munist Party activists in Prague on Tuesday night, according to the state news agency CPK. The partv chief, named Fri- day in a shakeup of the ruling Politburo, also said that many other opposition demands are acceptable to the Communists, though he was not specific. Differ- ences exist, he added, but "we shall have to get used to making poli- tics not only with those who agree with you Parliament planned to meet Wednesday to consider the con- stitutional change and other op- position demands. Opposition leaders continued to push for free elections, free speech and other rights including the freedom to form independent labor unions. Communist Premier Ladislav Adamec promised the opposition during Tuesday's talks that he would name bv Sunday a new coalitiongovernment that includes non-Communists, a concession to demands for an end to one-party rule. The agreement was reached during a meeting with Adamec and a delegation from th? opposi- tion coalition Civic Forum The dissident delegation was led by playwright Vaclav Havel, Czechoslovakia's most prominent opposition activist. The streets were quiet on Tuesday, as Civi Forum had requested to show that it did not want to disrupt the e onomy v n Monday, millions of people joined a two-hour general strike tailed bv the opposition to demand an end to 40 years of authoritarian rule. Civic Forum said strike committees would remain in plai e in case the Communists do not heed the popular will Adamec's pledge to ask Presi- dent Gustav Husak to approve a new coalition was announced by Marian Calfa, minister without portfolio, after Tuesday's two- hour talks. Hours after Calfa spoke, Urbanek lent his support to the constitutional changes but rejec ted other demands outright. He said it was "totally unacc- eptable' to disband the People's Militia, the party's paramilitary force and to remove the partv from workplaces. Hut Urbanekalsocriti- i ized his predecessor, Milos Jakes, saying his hard line policies had made it easy for the opposition to gain momentum. Jakes on Tues- day resigned his last top post as chairman of the National Defense Council, which gave himessenhal command of the armed forces. Many of those ousted in the government shakeup that began Fndav were associated with the decision to crush the reforms ol liberals in the Communist gov- ernment in ls6H. Soviet-led tanks moved in and a new orthodox government that included lakes and 1 lusak was installed. Alois lndra, who like Jakes 1 lusak and two other hard-liners associated with the crackdown lost his Politburo seat Fndav also re- signed Tuesday as the president of the Federal Assembly, or par liament.

Germany was di- vided into twostatesafterthcNazi defeat in World War II. The prospect of reunification set med distant less than a month ago, but sweeping changes in East i Germany have revived the idea. With Fast Germans, disillusioned with Communist rule, fleeing in droves and taking to the streets by the hundreds of thousands, the partv leadershipousted hard-liner Frich Honecker last month and launched a radical program of reforms with the promise of free elections. The opening of the country's borders on Nov. 4 gave Hast Ger- mans unrestricted freedom to travel to West Germany for the first time since the Berlin Wall was built in 1961. Millions of East Germans have since visited West Germany. At demonstrations in recent weeks, some have called for reunification ? an idea consis- tently rejected by the country's leaders. Krenz emphasized the need for two "sovereign, inde- pendent German states "A unitv of Germany isn't on the agenda he told West Germany's ARD television net- work.

Bell, who savs he will appeal the verdict, was put on probation until the end of the current term and was ordered to write letters of apology to each oi the students and profes- sors on the trip.

IBM TtIMr .Applf CalUgt lntrrmmtun Vffuw Court considers consent issue By STEVE MARSHALL and TONY MAURO Gannett News Scnrlc Should minors seeking abor- tions be required to notify their parents? That is the issue the Supreme Court considers in cases from Minnesota and Ohio. Pro-life advocates favor pa- rental involvement. They want more states to adopt laws that would require consent or at least notification before a minor could have an abortion. Pro-choice advocates dis- agree. They see parental involve- ment as another obstacle to re- strict abortion procedures. Eleven states now require parental notification; another 20 require parental consent. Most laws either are not enforced or have been ignored by courts. Lis- tening to the arguments will be Heather Pearson, 18. "Maybe people will see me and think, 'Oh God, it does hap- pen to normal people says Pear- son, taking two days off trom managing a paper goods store Four years ago, when she was about to enter ninth grade in sub- urban Minneapolis, Pearson learned she waspregnant. Sheand her boyfriend both were 14. She confided to her mother and they discussed options, includingabor- tion. Having decided on an abor- tion, Pearson's mother called a clinic and learned the law required both biological parents of a minor be notified. One problem: Heather's father had not played a part in her life in 11 years. That was in 1985, and little did they know they were on the cutting edge of the new abortion battle ? laws requiring notifica- tion or consent of parents. Heather's parents divorced when she was 5. Still, the law was firm ? either notifv a man who had not been in her life in 11 vears or trot off to court, tor a judge's per- mission. "So off to court I went said Heather, who eventually got a judge's permission to have the abortion at a Minneapolis clinic.

Pentagon bean counters, to claim their $180 billion in savings, shaved pretend dollars off their old five-year budget projection, which called for the defense budget to rise from $300 billion to $349 billion by 1994. But there was "no way in hell" the Pentagon was ever going to win $349 billion in 1994, said Korb. There is another thing to remember about all those propos- als being floated to save billions, such asclosing 15 Air Force Bases, mothballing two aircraft carriers and eliminating three Army divi- sions: These are trial balloons. Each service is floating un- popular proposals in the hope of distracting Congress from what really matters to the services ? new weapons coming on line. Suggesting the closure of 15 bases, just after the bitter fight to close a handful of bases, might make Congress more likelv to approve the programs the Air Force really wants, such as modernizing mis- sile forces with the Rail Garrison MX, a new fighter and a faster pace of purchasing its new air-t(- air missile, the AMRAAM. "The Air Force is saying, 'Hev, we're willing to play this game But the Air Force knows fully well that's not likelv to happen said defense budget analyst Tom Long- streth from the Federation of American Scientists, referring to the base closures.

Nearly one in five women are forced to have sex or are victims of attempted rape while going to college in New York, Cornell University re- searcher Andrea Parrot found. She released her findings ? based on a survey of officials and 215 students at 15 New York col- leges ? at the end of October during an Albany conference on Infant deaths increase sexual assault. Survey results involving 30 colleges and 1,100 students will be available in De- cember, she said. Parrot also discovered the assailants most likely are men who live in same-sex dormsor fraterni- ties, and have "macho" attitudes that devalue women. It's tougher to classify the victims, she said. But the more men a woman dates ? and the more these men drink ? the more likely she is to be attacked, her study suggested. Parrot's figures are consistent with national figures. In a 1987 survey of 6,000 students on 32 campuses, one in six female stu- dents reported being the victim of rape or attempted rape in the preceding year. Most women knew the assail- ant. In the same study, oneof every 15 men said he had committed rape or had attempted rape in the same period. "By and large, universities are giving us a much lower report rate Parrot said. Ignoring that rape isa problem is "a common re- sponse" among administrators, she added. "Every institution has a problem Study shows North Carolina lacks prenatal care CHARLOTTE (AP) ? North Carolina's rate of infant deaths has risen two years in a row, but political leaders say there has been little demand that something be done about it. 'To be just blunt with vou, I don't get anybody calling me and asking me about the infant mor- tality rate said Rep. Dave Dia- mont, D-Surry, chairman of the N.C. House Appropriations Committee. "I get calls every week from somebody complaining about their unpaved road In North Carolina last vear, 1,227 infants under age 1 died, or 12.6 percent of every 1,000 babies born. It was the second consecu- tive year the infant death rate rose. It was the highest rate in North Carolina since 1983, and worse than in South Carolina (12.2 per- cent) or Mississippi (12.3 percent), states that for years trailed North Carolina in most health and eco- nomic indexes. But the dismal indicator of health conditions didn't spur aggressive legislative action. "I don't know of any state- wide leader who's really felt strongly enough about it to say, 'We're on the bottom on a lot of other things, but I'll just be dang- blasted if we're going to be on the bottom in infant mortality, letting young babies die said Rep. Dan Blue, D-Wake. Blue is former chairman of the House Appropria- Liver recipient recovers By CLIFF EDWARDS Th AuoclaMd Praw CHICAGO (AP) ? A 21- month-old girl who received the nation's first living-donor liver transplant is recovering after a complication, and her father hopes to have her home for Christmas. Alyssa Smith underwent a second operation early Tuesday to stop internal bleeding detected 12 hours after she received a piece of her mother's liver. "She's looking much better said her father, John L. Smith. The girl was in critical but stable condition after the second operation, said Dr. Christoph Broelsch, who headed the surgi- cal team. Doctors removed the left lobe of 29-year-old Teresa Smith's liver for the transplant. Mrs. Smith was in fair condition Tuesday. She was moved out of intensive care See LIVER, page 11 tions subcommittee on human resources. The national 1988 infant mor- tality rate was 9.9 per 1,000 live births. North Carolina health experts fear the state, fifth-worst in 1987, will beat the bottom when the 1988 rankings come out next year. Results in other states show fewer babies die when monev is spent to give pregnant women earlv, regular and thorough health care. During their terms, Missis- sippi Gov. William Winter (1980- 84) and S.C. Cov. Dick Rilev( 1979- 87) put infant mortality at the top of their agendas. Those governors cajoled their legislatures into appropriating money. In 1984, South Carolina committed $8 million for a three- year plan. Mississippi increased the staffs at public health clinics so that no pregnant woman has to wait more than two weeks for an appointment. (In about 25 of the 100 N.C. counties, waiting time averages from three to eight weeks.) They also went after private grant monev: Mississippi got $1.2 million in 1987. South Carolina has $2.4 million this vear, North Carolina $40,000. As head of a Southern Gover- nors Association task force on infant mortality, Riley persuaded Congress to make major changes in Medicaid, in effect setting up a kind of national maternity-care insurance for the working poor. Now the federal government will pay 75 percent of the cost of medi- cal care for women whose family income is up to $18,600 a year for a family of three ? 185 percent of the poverty level ? if the state pays the rest. Mississippi and South Caro- lina pay the maximum. The 1989 S.C. legislature voted to spend $7.6 million for the state's share. That will cover an estimated 42 percent of the state's pregnancies. North Carolina hasn't done as much. Although Secretary of Human Resources David Flaherty asked for $19.2 million from the 1989 N.C. General Assembly to pav the maximum Medicaid bene- fits, Martin didn't include money for it in his proposed budget. In- stead, he pushed a highway pack- age. The Legislature, at the urging of Sen. Russell Walker, D-Ran- dolph, and Reps. Diamont and Ann Duncan, R-Forsyth, appro- priated $13.5 million, to raise the Medicaid income ceiling to $15,081 for a family of three ? 130 percent of the poverty level ? beginning Jan. 1. But much of the Legislature's energy went toward approving the $9 billion, 13-year road-improvement package. "I think what you're seeing said Walker, "is that the interest of doing things for highways and paving rural roads became much more important, from the top down, than protecting lives Gov. Jim Martin said he made infant mortality a top priority this year, after learning in April the North Carolina infant death rate was continuing to nse. Although his 1989-90 budget didn't propose increasing Medicaid eligibility, he said, "As soon as we learned we had two years' increase, we agreed to support 150 percent. "We did the best we could last year. I'm not saying that's as good as any other state. It would be very easy to sav, 'Well, the governor didn't haveitinhisbudget Wedidn't oppose it. We did support it He cited several programs begun during his administration, including "Babv Love which he called "perhaps the most uccess- ful prenatal care progim we have "Babv Love begun two years ago, is supposed to 1 ide needy pregnant women through the bureaucracy to get proper medi- cal care.

ITS College street parties have erupted out of control on a number of campuses in recent weeks, causing terrible physical muirk's in somecasesand prompt- ing observers to wonder why such partiers seem to have become, in effect, meaner. "Big parties have always been hero said Chip Mudd, a student leader at Purdue University, where police were called in to control a street party that had inously grown to 700 drunken revelers in early October, "but this ii the cap might have come off bottle. rhere's got to be a way to he big ones from getting out ntrol he said.

Ten people were hurt by flyingbeerbottles, 10 were arrested and property damage was estimated at $10,000 to $14,000. The riot was not an isolated incident. That same night, thousands Of Michigan State University par- tiers clogged the streets near an off-campus apartment complex after MSU's 10-7 football loss to the University oi Michigan. The crowd set fire to almost anything itcould lift or push, including cars, trashcansand mopeds. I rees were torn up and balcony railings were ripped from apartments. At the very same time at Ply- mouth State College in New Hampshire, police arrested 135 people, mostly for violating drink- ing laws, at parties surrounding the school's Oct. 14 homecoming. Two weeks earlier, police wore called in to control the Purdue street party, which turned rowdy after Purdue's 42 7 loss to Notre Dame. On two separate weekends, University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh students angry over police enforcement of the 21-year-old minimum drinking age, staged street demonstrations that ended in mass irrests Ihev were marching in response to a September party that police raided, confiscating kegs, arrest- ing 80 students and fining the student hosts $17,01 On Oct. 21, fust a week after the first party explosion, East Lansing policedonned riot gear to break up a party of 400, arresting 11 people. Fistfights, roaming bands of thugs and drunken partiers marred the Halloween "Mall Crawl" near the University of Colorado Oct. 28, prompting offi- cials to cancel the 90-year-old tradition for next Halloween. "This is a North-East-South-West any- where type problem Ed wardson observed. Officials are stumped about how to stop it. In frustration, both MSU President John DiBiaggio and WMU President Diether Haenicke wrote open letters to theirstudents,askingthemtostop. The University of California at Santa Barbara and Colorado State University, like many oth- ers, banned outdoor street parties alter students were hurt, some- times repeatedly, during such events in the past. 1 loping to stampout itsannu- ally crime-ridden Halloween street parties.

Even officials at party meccas iike Fort Lauderdale, PalmSprings and Virginia Beach, Va say they would rather forego millions of dollars in revenues than endure the kind of injuries, destruction and, from time to time, even deaths that occur when students and al- cohol mix on their streets. Day- tona Beach officials currently are touring campuses, asking students to behave better next spring. "It doesn't mean partying will stop said Barbara Petura, a spokeswoman at Washington State University, where problems have been minimal. "It never will. It's part of college College un- rest is as old as colleges them- selves, writes Michael Smith, au- thor of "Coping With Crime on Campus, " in which he traces campus rioting back to the Middle Ages. In 1807, for instance, half the student body of Princeton Uni- versity was suspended after riots against the university's strict code of conduct. The problems these days always seem to involve drinking. "There is the tendency for kids to drink earlier noted WMU sociology Prof. Stanley Robin. "Bv the time they get to college, drink- ing is ingrained Robin also blames the media for taking "isolated" incidentsand lumping them together to produce "newsworthy items But he doesn't discount the gravity of the problem. Take a special occasion like a college football game, throw in alcohol, a big crowd and unsea- sonably warm weather ? night- time temperatures in Kalamazoo were in the 70s ? and something is likely to explode. "One person acts crazy, and then another per- son feels it's OK to act crazy he said. At Plymouth State, it could be extrazealous law enforcement by local police, suggested sociology professor Joseph Long. "The law enforcement crowd here is very bizarreand that causes problems University of Southern Maine criminology professor Mitchell Levine guessed it's a combination of alcohol and law enforcement. "Police on campus tend to be trying to overly enforce the law The big parties also could be a result of stricter alcohol rules, making drinking more alluring, Purdue's Mudd speculated.

Persistence. Be- lieving in yourself and what you do. These are the qualities that have made Mark Rosenberg, of Rosenberg and Associates, a suc- cessful entrepreneur. Rosenberg, originally from Miami, broke into the advertising world in 19S4, then working out of his apartment on Juniper Street. At that time, he was attending ECU and working on an advertis- ing project for one of his market- ing classes. Until that class, and until the Sheraton bought part of his proj- ect, Rosenberg had no idea that advertising would be his niche. Even though he had no prior experience in the field, he decided advertising was what he wanted to do. Advertising is an extremely competitive field and Rosenberg was aware of that. He and a part- ner started the business out of his apartment. When asked how he made connections and got his first clients he replied, "We hit the streets. My partner and 1 took our portfolios and went around to all the bars downtown and businesses in Greenville, and basically sold our services, showed them our work and told them, This is what we are going to do for you Each new contract brought new learning experiences. Being young and inexperienced amidst a world filled with experienced professionals, is an intimidating feeling. Rosenbergdid not let that stop him. "I just wanted to do it, and I did it. And there wasn't anybody who could convince me of anything different Some of what he learned came from a visit to a large advertising agency in Philadelphia. He listened to eve- rything they told him and went from department to department, writing down every word they said. Five and a half years later, with the help of 12 staff members, sitting at his own desk in a big new office building, Rosenberg has succeeded. Organization is only part of the key. He said that he feels cooperation and support ized I'm on top of things, and I know what has to be done, and 1 do it About all the frustrations that came along with trying to build a name for himself and his new company, Rosenberg said: "It was frustrating at first, but I have my frustrating times now.

The Plaza now cov- ers 45 acres. Candace Gillis, Marketing Director of The Plaza, said the mall is 85 leased. Gillis is responsible for retail promotion and market- ing activities for The Plaza. Gillis transferred to this mall from Raleigh. Sixty stores were open for the Oct. 27 grand re-opening, and others will open during 199(1. With the $34 million expansions, there will be enough room for lOOstores. Gillis estimates The Plaza will generate $70 million in retail sales for 1990, $3.5 million of this will come from sales tax revenue. "We currently employ 700 to 750 people and expect to see that figure rise to 1,000. A large part of our work force is ECU students Gillis said.

The Plaza has a whole new look inside and out. Every thing is look- ing new and bright marble floors, fresh paint and decorative lights. The sights and sounds of Christmas will soon be ringing through The Plaza. Santa will make daily visits at The Plaza, until Christmas Eve.

Now in its third vear, the JET Program offers native English speakers from various countries the chance to observe and assist in teaching English to Japanese students while allowing participants to absorb its culture. Karen Eoushee, a recent ECU graduate, currently lives in Kochi City, where she works for the Kochi Prefecture Board of Educa- Conference to focus on environmental concerns By MICHELLE THOMPSON Special totheEaaf Carolinian Earlier this year, a small group of ECU students attended the National Conference for Overseas Development in the Thrid World at Harvard University. The con- ference,called "Rethinking Devel- opment focussed on the conflict between sustainable economics and unprincipled development, thedominanteconomic trend since the Industrial Revolution. Topics ranged from reforestation in Bra- zil to "empowerment initiatives" for people here and abroad. In the opening address, Pro- fessor Mel King of MIT asked, "How can we look to this country to play a part in development?" Initially he focussed on some negative aspects of our culture? on pollution, on the low status of women and minorities,and on the pervasive attitude that personal values can only be reflected in wealth often gained by exploiting natural resources. As such prob- lems persist, said King, we may ask ourselves, "Are we in fact developed?" On a positive note, King also emphasized that a major reorien- tation of global development poli- cies may best begin with the United States. Free speech and a free press give us access to powerful information that can change lives. We can also effect change through lobbying, boycotting, demonstra- tions, and letters to industries and political figure. The most shocking presenta- tions at this conference focussed on the Amazon. Satellite photos of the Amazon River basin show- that an area the size of a football field is deforested every five sec- onds and an area the size of Maine isdeforested each year. Yet eighty- one percent of the land is owned by an elite few. The odd mix of economic conditions?of abject poverty and excessive wealth (funelled into development)? tend to encourage unsound envi- ronmental practices. Large for- eign corporations often act out of narrowly focussed economic inter- ests. The Brazilian Amazon is ecol- ogically unique. It contains a vast diversity of plant and animal life and the largest stretch of rainforest, which harbors some 3 million plant species?nearly 34 of all plant species on Earth! The Ama- zon River Basin actually spans several countries and is roughly the size of Australia and is the second longest river in the world. The Amazon is crucial to regu- lating carbon dioxide in the at- mosphere and thus is essential to the stability of the global climate system. The "slash & burn" method of deforestation used in the Amazon is a major cause of the "greenhouseeffect the phenome- non by which the sun's energy is trapped in Earth's atmosphere Within our lifetimes, this problem could threaten the survival of many species?including our own. Brazil saw the beginning of spirallingdevelopment in theearly 1960's. Throughout the '70s and into the '80s, the World Bank of- fered vigorous support for mas- See DEVELOP on page 15 turn. Foushee said, "Kochi and North Carolina are on the same latitude, so the weather is similar.

Begun in 1987, the program currently has nearly 2CHX) partici- pants from nine countries. This year, coordinators of the Program expect to accept approximately 780 of these applicants from the United States. There will be two areas of employment offered: a coordina- tor for international relations or an assistant English teacher. As a CIR, a candidate must already exhibit a functional command of the English language since his or her primary duty will be working with governments in enhancing international relations. As an AET candidate, how- ever, applicants do not need as strong a background in the Japa- nese language since their primary duty will beaiding Japanese teach- ers with the instruction of the English language. Ideally, this part of the Program strives to indoctri- nate an international perspective in Japanese students by promot- ing an extensive education in for- eign languages. Candidates must also be thirty-five years of age and have obtained a Bachelor's degree bv August, 1990. In addition, AET applicants must practice excellent English pronunciation, rhythm, intonation, and voice projection; have good English writing skills; and exhibit a genuine interest in Japan and its people. Formerly a junior high school teacher, Foushee says her primary reason for participating in the Program is to learn more about the Japanese educational system.

It's more than just metal it's a combo of fusion, hip hop, neo-classicism, speed, and a fine flavor of funk that gives you Mordred. Mordred tags are vocalist Scott Holderbv, guitarists Dannv White and Jim Sanguinetti, bass master Art Liboon and drummer Gannon Hall. Mordred, a name taken from the illegitimate son of King Arthur, has been dubbed everything from funkv metal to bizarre metal. I wouldn't call it bizarre, but funky is a pretty accurate descrip- tion. It's about time Northern California unleashed an originallv cool band, and Mordred is defi- nitely not a band to do something that's already been done. Troof oi this can be heard on the band's debut LP "Fool's Game that came out on the Euro- metal label Noise. The LP was released in Europe a few months ago, and Mordred found itself to be the first American act signed to this curopean label. "Fool's Game" saw its American release in October. Formed in Februarv of 1986, funk bassist Liboon is the only original member left in the band. Originallv building on a Sabbath- hke, medieval, heavy metal sound, the musical direction of the band changed with the recruiting of drummer Hall and guitarist White. Influenced by such bands as the Police, Rush and Missing Per- Woodstock sons, Hall added many new di- mensions when he joined the band. While Hall thrived on progressive rock. White craved the sounds of funk masters such as Rick James, Cameo and Earth, Wind and Fire. With theadditionof vocalist Hold- erby, who is a devout follower of English and avant rock like Pil and David Bowie, Mordred be- came a band that dared to com- bine these influences to make a completely original sound. "We want to do something different with the genre Hall said. Mordred has incorporated all their influences into the heavy metal genre for a more interesting and complex sound. Hall, the principal lyricist for the band, said that the album has a lot of "techno metal with funk aspects However, he admitted that they're not limited by that genre or concerned with doing straight-up anything. "1 went to GIT for a year, and that opened me up to different styles White said. "When I came back here (to San Francisco) it naturally got me into funk and fusion Newest member and guitarist Sanguinetti, along with White, went to the guitar university, GIT, in Los Angeles. These GIT won- der boys broadened their musical horizons and together created a heavy-duty, stereo, metal guitar sound. "Musically, we would like to move people, to stir people physi- cally and emotionally, when they hear one of our songs Hall said. "We're not an intellectual thrash band, we re humans with human feelings, and we're not afraid to express them Hall admits there is no real message Mordred is trying to get emerges across, and even though his songs are often serious, he is in it for the fun. "We don't take ourselves too seriously and we don't want to be taken too seriously he said. "Heavy metal is a very strong, straight forward kind of music that, until we grow out of it, we'll keep playing Liboon said. Hall agreed, "Yeah, metal really drives. It probably has to do with our age. We have a lot of energy and we like to pound it out If you pick up a copy of "Fool's Game" you'll get to hear that per- cussive, rhythmic style that sets Mordred apart from the rest of the San Francisco underground. The band's funk side is appar- ent on the first videosingle "Everydav's A Holiday The single is filled with metal guitars, funkv grooves, and high-tech scratching by Aaron "D.J. Pause" Vaughn, who is also featured in the video. "Sever and Splice" and "Shat- ter" are the two heaviest songs on the'album. "Shatter" adds a raw touch to the funky sideof Mordred, and has guest vocals by Chuck Billy of Testament. And as a joke, Mordred did a cover of the Rick James' classic 'Super Freak Thrash fans will get a kick out of this remake, and mavbe one day Mordred will decide to do their own garage days revisited with the '70s funk clas- sics. Lyrically, the songs on the LP are very deep, and often compli- cated. But that'so.k. because these thrash rats just wanna have fun. Mordred is an original metal band, and they should have no problems casting a brain-scorch- ing spell on the metal world. Continued from page 13 Carolina University. He once headed the Writing Center. He likes to play basketball, watch "?Football and see his son play soc- ?'crr' " Bizzaro left Buffalo for Wood- stock in a van full of buddies. They brought with them a tent, and some corn and apples. They set up their tent five miles outside the concert in Bethel. The long walk back and forth to the tent pro vided time for singing and raising hell, as Bizzaro puts it. "1 played a kazoo; people from all over came up and requested songs. It was the closest 1 ever came to being a rock star. Most of the poets of my generation are failed rock stars Bizzaro remembers wearing cut off shorts, sandals and black- framed glasses like the ones John Sebastian wore in a movie. Bizzaro's hair fell slightly below his shoulders and he had what he calls a fu manchu moustache. You might be able to pick him out in the Woodstock documentary, Three Days of Peace and Music. He now regrets the loss of his Woodstock tickets. When the concert became officially free, he tore them up and threw them in the air. He said: "Drugs were every- where, people had Ihem laying out on tables like they were food vendors. I say this one guy trip- ping out on brown acid. He was crying and pulling out his hair. At one time, I had four pipes in my hand. I didn't know what to do with them all Bizzaro said the freedom to express oneself made the concert famous: "No one was afraid. If you wanted to do drugs, you did them. If you wanted to take off your clothes, you did. The naked beach scene in the movie was a shock tactic for the people who weren't there. People who weren't walking around naked were not bothered by the people that were Bizzaro agrees with all the weather reports. "We were slid- ing around in the mud. The rain was cold. Most of my friends left early, leaving two of us to carry back pounds of wet sleeping bags and blankets. We ditched them on the road. Later we found out we had thrown out two cameras full of pictures of the concert. Mv friends were mad but I wouldn't have thrown awav the cameras if I had known they were there During the concert, Bizzaro hitched a ride to pick up his girl- friend in Monticello. He and a bunch of other people climbed aboard on an old truck loaded down with hay. It was like their own private hav ride. Bizzaro eventually met up with his girl- friend at a Lutheran church and brought her back to the concert with him. Today he is married to the same woman. According to Bizzaro, the concert was good, but sad. "Ev- eryone was having a good time, but we were all conscious of the fact that people were being killed in Vietnam. It was never far from your mind Bizzaro thought the best part of Woodstock was being unafraid to express yourself. He pointed out again the drugs, the naked- ness and all the other things nor- mally forbidden by society. "The '60s are still a part of me.

Lumbering and cattle raising were, and still are, given tax incentives or credits. rod ay, ca 11 le ra 1 si ng represen ts t he single largest cause of rainforest destruction. Much of the beef is exported to the U.S. to be sold in fast food chains. Brazil's population, which is highly urbanized, uses and owns onlyasrnall percentage of the land. In fact, seventy percent of the population is landless. Manv people are forced to move out to the rainforest, clearing the land tor small-scale farming based on crop rotation and slash-and-bum practices As the topsoil is e- tremel) thin, a typical peasant family's tract oi land lasts only about three1 years. When the landless farmer then moves on to find new soil, corpo- rate-owned cattle ranchers move in to expand their already sprawl- ing ranches. At this point, regen- eration of the land becomes im- possible. Even in the unlikely event that any topsoil is left at all. full recuperation would take at least a century or two. As the valuable land is lost, the people of Latin America are becoming increasingly impover- ished. The poverty, however, extends tar beyond Brazilian bor- ders, tor this land has also been a source of many medicines usl by industrialized nations. More importantly, given its essential role in stabilizing global climate, the Amazon's demise may be a harbinger of global disaster. Fortunately, some grassroot organizations in Brazil actively endorse long-term land valuesand are working to fight deforestation. Chico Mendes, a leader of the Rubber Tappers and outspoken proponent of rainforest preserva- tion, gained international atten- tion when he was mysteriouslv murdered earlier this vear. But his particular group had gained enough support to pressure the World Bank into renouncing all plans for "environmentally un- sound projects Another posi- tiveoutcome was the formation of "The Alliance of Rain Forest Peoples an alliance between Brazilian Indians and a small group of Portugese, who are conducting regular forums on saving the rainforests Methods of sustainable land use are an ecological imperative. Instead oi using forest resources as vehicles for mining and live- stock operations, the proposed changes for forestry and land regulations should remove incen- tives for forest clearing. If lessons from the past are heeded, future development of the Amazon will be dramatically different from what it is today. On the other hand, if the Third World contin- ues to adopt the developmental practicesof affluent countries, thev will only amplify the already se- vere environmental damage. How can we better educate ourselves on this global crisis? At 7:30 p.m. on Thursday evening, November 30, Maria Teresa Ortiz and Guillermo W. Mann will speak in room 1031 oi ECU'S General Classroom Building on "Conser- vation in Latin America: Can Sus- tainable Economies and Ecologi- cal Integrity Coexist?" Sn. Ortiz, a native of Boh via, helped negotiate the first "debt-for-Nature" swap in history and is a recipient of the Global 500 Award for conserva- tion achievement (1988), given by the United Nations' Environ- mental Program. Sr. Mann, a native of Chile and former direc- tor of Chile's National Park Sys- tem, is vice president for Strategic Planning at Conservation Inter- national, a Washington, D.C based organization working for the conservation of natural habi- tats in Mexico, Costa Rica, Bolivia and other Latin American Coun- tries. The insights of Ortiz and Mann could not be more timely, for we can no longer deny the pressing issues of environment, economics, and social inequality which affect millions of people worldwide. It is time to rethink our ideas on development and progress. Though the problem is complex, many individuals and organizations are taking construc- tive action and having.

E L News Bui (.tvrg Buchner's "Danton's Death" will tx1 presented by the i ast Carolina Playhouse on De- cember 6, 7, 8 and 9, 19,vj at 8:15 p m. in the McGinnis 1 heatre.This spectacular epic ot the French Revolution is being produced to commemorate France's Bicenten- nial. "Danton's Iith" will be the last East Carolina Playhouse pro- duction directed bv retiring pro- ducerdirector Edgar R. Loessin, and will feature music composed by Otto Henry, ECU School of Music, and songs written bv Mort Mine, ECU Department of The- atre Arts. 1 eeling himself being crushed under the ghastly fatalism of his- tirv. the twenty-two vear old Buchner wrote' Danton's Death v hich captures the hopesand turv and disappointment of that tre- mendous time referred to as the French Revolution. The plav is involved with two heroic figures of the revolution, Georges Danton and Maximilien Robespierre, who are philosophi- cally opposed to thedirection their country should take. The fiery Robespierre is the essence of revo- lutionary zeal; Danton is the calmer advocate of bourgeois re- form. One of the two must fall; and in passionate times, invari- ably the calmer individuals suc- cumb to the hungrv mobs. "Danton's Death" fills the theatre with the tickle, lund, terrifying c c lone of the Revolution. The plav torms a staggering spectacle, with torrential mob scenes, drunken brawling on the street, bellowing and gathering frenzy at the Convention, and surging passions at the trial. The single-eyed fanatic, Robespierre, embodies the basic heartlessness of the humanitarian doctrinaire. Love and beauty persist, evoked bv the two women be- loved of Danton and of Desmoul- ins who, though not prominent in the play, give a splendid, almost romantic quality to the hard his- torical realism. Tempestous pas- sion, pathos, human integrity, and poetic beauty surge to tragic exal- tation in Buchner's masterpiece. Christopher James Wright will be playing the role of Danton. As a professional actor, Wright has performed in regional theatre throughout the United States appearing in productions of "Crimes of the 1 leart "The Rain- maker "Edward 11 and "Gem ini On television he was most recently seen as Kenyon Druhart on "One Life to Live" and has performed regularly on "The Guiding Light" and "All My Chil- dren He will be appearing in the upcoming films, "1 mle Monsters" and "Black Rainbow He is also the voice in manv TV and radio commercials Wnght is appearing through the courtesy of Actors' Equity Association.

'We played hard and got an virlv lead head coach Pat Pier- .on said. "We shot well and were ble to maintain the lead Pierson said her team has showed much improvement over 'heir first two games, but that it -till has a lot of kinks left to work nit. One wrinkle Pierson pointed ut is the team's timing, but added us is to be expected with the iddirion of new players. TheLadvPiratesopened their season last Friday night in Statesboro, Georgia, falling to a itrong Ga. Southern team, 77-74. Fonya Hargrove led the team in scoring with 16 points and was 4 tor 9 from the charity stripe ? giving the sophomore forward a areer high 20 points. Hargrove iiso lead the team in turnovers with five. Just over a week ago, juniorcenterforward Sarah Gray underwent knee surgery. "You could tell she was hurt, it showed Pierson said about Gray's 50 per- cent effort from the free-throw line. "The team played great and played hard Pierson said, but added, "first game jitters" got the best of the Lady Pirates. Despite the pressure on freshman Gaynor O'Donnell, the 56" forward had a "great effort" with 12 assists ? two short of an ECU game record. "The difference came at the line Pierson said referring to the team's 40 percent free-throw ef- fort. In Saturday's win over Au- gusta College ECU Coach Pat Pierson was able to play all 13 players, including Sarah Gray. Gray had started "to return to her old self, and started to regain her confidence Pierson said as Gray came off the bench for a game- high 17 points. Senior Irish Ha- milton was the only other ECU player in double figures with 13.

Colorado, Notre Dame set for New Year's Day showdown By The Associated Press Colorado is No. 1 in college foofl all for the first time in school history. While members of the team aid it will be fun to have some " bragging rights they n't consider their work done intil an. 1. That's when the Buffaloes, ?reviously No. 2 behind top- inked Notre Dame, meet the hting Irish in the Orange Bowl or what could be the national hampionship. Colorado moved up in The Associated Press poll on Monday after Miami beat Notre Dame 27- 10 Saturday. The Fighting Irish, who had been No. 1 since the first week of the season, fell to No. 5, while Miami rose three places to No. 4. Alabama, the only other ma- pr undefeated team, moved up two places to No. 2 while once- beaten Michigan remained third after beating Ohio State 28-18. Alabama, which had the week off, finishes its regular season Satur- day at Auburn. The top five teams all figure to have a shot at the national cham- pionship. Colorado can win it by bearing Notre Dame in the Or- ange Bowl, but if the Buffaloes lose it would open the door for the other four teams. " It is going to be our ultimate challenge Colorado coach Bill McCartney said. " Anyone who knows anvthing about Notre Dame and its great traditions knows that they will bounce back from the Miami loss. You can count on that Colorado players expressed reserved pleasure on Monday. " It's really not a big deal, because we've still got one more to play defensive co-captain Michael Jones said. " If we lose, it all goes out the window " It's a great feeling guard Darrin Muilenburg said but we know we have to prove it and finish it off with one last game " I feel the same as I did when we were No. 9 linebacker Alfred Williams said.

Duke football coach Steve Spurrier said after a meeting with University of Flor- ida officials that he will not make a decision on his coaching future until after Duke and Horida have played their respective postsea- son bowl games. Spurrier met for nearly two hours Saturday at his home in Durham with Florida's selection committee: Athletic Director Bill Arnsparger, interim Florida Presi- dent Dr. Robert Bryan and Dr. Nick Cassisi, a resident of Gainesville, Fla. "I'm definitely planning on coaching the bowl game, just like I said last week Spurrier said Monday night after returning from a news conference in Birmingham. "That wouldn't be good for any- body (to decide before the bowl game). That wouldn't be good for either side. "It was just a general get to know each other thing. There in a bowl game and we're in a bowl game. I want to coach the bowl game no matter what happens. So there's no need for any serious talks at this time Spurrier said a second meet- ing would be held in the next two weeks. Duke meets Texas Tech in the All American Bowl in Birming- ham, Ala on Dec. 28. Florida faces Washington in the Freedom Bowl in Anaheim, Calif on Dec. 30. Spurrier would neither con- firm nor deny that Florida made him an offer during the Saturday meeting. "You ask them all that Spur- rier said. "We just got to know each other a little bit and planned on getting together again in a couple of weeks and talk some more and see what happens. That was about it Florida officials have said Spurrier is their top choice to re- place Galen Hall, who resigned at midseason following admissions of wrongdoing within the school's football program. Florida is reportedly set to offer Spurrier a contract of $300,000 annually through a base salary, television show and endorse- ments, The Durham Morning Herald reported Tuesday. Spur- rier isattractive to Horida not only because he has led Duke to a 20- 12-1 record in three seasons, but also because he was the school's onlv Heisman Trophy winner, a honor he received following the 1966 season. Duke discussed a renegotia- tion of Spurrier's contract last week. Spurrier had signed a four- year contract prior to the 1989 season thatincludesabonusclause should he stay through the 1992 season. Duke reportedly offered Spurrier a new contract last week with an annual base salary of $100,000, the newspaper said. "We just talked Amsbarger said of Saturday's meeting with Spurrier. "It's always good to visit with people. We had this oppor- tunity; we took advantage of it When asked why Bryan and Cassissi flew to Durham for the meeting, Arnsbarger said: "I guess they were available and interested. I don't want to put words in their mouths Bryan could not be reached for comment, but Linda Gray, a spokesman for the University of Florida said: "It was a prelimiary discussion.

Those attending the Dec. 28 All American Bowl might be better off leaving their watches at home, said the coach of Texas Tech's 25th-ranked football team, which meets No. 20 Duke in the 13th annual game. "Don't plan on a three-hour ball game Spike Dykes said at a news conference Monday. "We may be playing five or six hours because we're going to be throw- ing it, too. It's going to be wild.

"1 think they'll like the fact that it will be a different challenge that they don't see a lot Ford said Tuesday of the Tigers' option of- fense. "They've played against a whole lot bigger people, but I don't know if they've played against people who have run any better or quicker. "I think thaf s the difference.

Clemson lost its grip on the Atlantic Coast Conference championship after midseason losses to Georgia Tech and Duke. West Virginia was beaten by Virginia Tech and Perm State and tied by Pittsburgh. Ford, speaking via a confer- ence call from Clemson, said he doesn't know much about the Mountaineers except that Harris is the quarterback. "1 don't know exactly how we'll play him yet Ford said. "I think we'll have some problems with him. I'm not sure how he hurts you the most, running or throwing. He's very dangerous Harris, who in three seasons became the first college player to pass for 5,000 yards and rush for 2,000, averaged 7.8 yards a play this season. He ran for 919 yards and six touchdowns in 144 carries and completed 131 of 224 passes for 1,939 yards and 16 touchdowns He was intercepted 10 times. Harris is ranked eighth na- tionally in Division 1-A in total offense and ninth in passing effi- ciency. He will be facing a defense ranked fifth nationally in scoring defense, sixth in total defense, seventh against the rush and 22nd in pass defense. This is the first Clemson team ever to rank among the top 25 in the four major defen- sive categories. Outside linebackers Levon Kirkland, John Johnson and Wayne Simmons have combined for half of Oemson's 22 quarter- back sacks. "1 know our linemen aren't going to catch him Ford said of Harm.

November 30, 1989 ? 3 BAD FICTION The perils of Paulina Judith Krampz Paulina slipped off her heels ana sat down on the velour sofa with the wad of bills. Her gold Visa was just about maxed. Her plati- num AmEx had over fifteen hundred dollars on it. Even her Macy's account had a aent in it. Life was not looking great. Sure, she had her career. What twenty-six-year-oid woman wouldn't be thrilled to be in her snoes (as tight as they seemea sometimes), to be assistant to the vice-president in charge of men's scents for Oinique'5 She had her career, a hot penthouse apart- ment on the East Side, and a boy- friend she was reasonably sure ioved her. Why then, was she so miserable? It wasn't the bills. She could handle that. No, she felt unful- filled. Something was missing in her life. Dermit had repeatedly asked her to marry him. but somehow her intuition tola her that wasn't what she was missing. Once he even told her he wasn't as averse to children as he pretended. She massaged her aching heel, it wasn't that, either. Children were something she didn't need right now. She tcjed back her golden mane and lay her head upon the back of the sofa. Kenny G's saxo- phone wailed from the stereo. Ail she wanted was to get away for awhile. Maybe to the Bahamas. She and Dermit had had so much fun last summer. But this time she wanted to be alone. Alone to walk the bleached beaches, stare poignantly out at the crystal sea, and drink spiced rum underneath the palm trees. She had time off coming. She could get it as soon as next week- end. She stood up suddenly, her breasts pointing defiantly ahead of her. Yes, she thought to herself. I can no longer deny myself. I must leave for a while. I must get in touch with myself as a woman and find out what I really want. I must redefine my career goals, my at- tention needs ? yes, even my sexual neeas. Though Dermit was a more than adeguate lover, sometimes she felt as though she was drifting away when they were in bed. Drifting to a shore that had no name, but a shore that terrified and fascinated her at the same time. The plane landed on the Ber- muda runway. Paulina stepped off the plane with a Jight heart. She wore sandals that let the oceanic breezes caress each toe. All this was hers for a week. She grabbed her travel bag and set out for the hotel. Dermit had been flatly against this trip. Locked into a big merger, he couldn't get time off from work (as she had known he couldn't) and he didn't understand why she would leave without him. "Honey, if you just wait till next month, we can be together. We coula finish exploring all those waterfalls we didn't get to last time he said. The memory of the waterfall was a painful one for Paulina. The touch of his wet, deeply tanned chest against hers, the cool water splashing between their mouths as they kissed pas- sionately, his hairy forearm reach- ing slowly between her these images and more rushed through her head, and she remembered why she loved him sc much. Then she remembered all the misery she had endured alone on those nights when he wasn't there, when she was alone in her office, alone walking aown the street last year. He had the deepest tan she'd ever seen on a human being, and his voice was gravelly when he spoke. His accent was notice- able, but she couldn't place it. "No harm done. miss. Just glad it was a beautiful lass like yourself bumpin' me an' not anyone else His perfect teeth shone like well- polished marble, and she wanted to kiss their whiteness. She felt mesmerized ana had to bite her lip to remember Dermrt's name. "Uh thank you Are you she didn't know what to say. She wanted to ask if he was staying for the whole week, if he wanted a arink. if he liked waterfalls, but her insides had turned to jelly and she stammered, "okay? I didn't mean to bump you "S'alright. I'll play rugby again, I think. Are you alone on this beau- tiful isle? Lass like you must have a husband, boyfriends at least His almost-brown lips moveb like the tide over the white beach of his teeth. "Uh well, yes. He's back home. Working. As usual The "There was a smoldering tension between them. Something unconsummated "It's only for a week. I just need to to get some perspective. I feel I feel burned out. Dermit- Bear, I love you. but I'll be back next week. And I'll have a better tan than you she laughed. "That's what really hurts he laughed too, and things seemed to be all right again. But that night, the dread crept up on her again. The slow, insidious snaky dread that comes at three o' clock in the morning when your lover is fast asleep and you are wide awake trying to decide if he really loves you. or if you're just one more acquisition. The flashback enaed as abruptly as it had begun, and Paulina found herseff at customs. She bent down to check her bags and accidently elbowed the knees of the man behind her. She stood up guickly, apologizing. "I'msorry. I didn't ?" she hatred in mid-sentence. The man was holding her elbow as she rose. His short. c urly brown hair was streaked with the natural gold that only surf- ers and lifeguards get. His blue eyes looked like the unbroken crystal of the waters she and Dermit dove in customs clerk motioned impa- tiently for her bag. and the stranger hefted it up for her and placed it on the X-ray machine. "A shame for him, good luck for me. I'm Forrest Monahan. I'm staying at the Casa Royale. Would you like to join me for a drink to- night?" His golden bicep moved her packed bag with a grace she thought impossible for humans. "I'm staying there too. Yes. I think I'd like that. I'd I'd like that very much. I'm Paulina Decateur, Mr. Monahan She held her hand out to shake, and he lifted it and kissed her knuck- les. "Then let's get our luggage and get out into that sun we came for. shall we?" The week flew by too guickly. Forrest took her dancing every night, snorkeling or sailing during the day, and by Thursday she felt like a teenager in love. Her nightly phone calls to Dermit contained happy bits of gossip about her new friend Jaquee that she'd met and the wonderful time she was having with her. Paulina hated to He. but Dermit would ne v e? understand her friendship with a man like Forrest. Dermit sounded cranky and tired on the phone, worn out from the hassles of corporate life. Paulina reflectea that that must be how she sounded most of the time too. But here she sounded like the woman she'd always dreamed of being. Forrest brought out the best in her. And yet he was distant when she asked about his life. He was reluctant to talk about it and woulc change the subject imme- diately. He would dash into the surf, aanng her to follow. But he woula listen attentively to her prob- lems, her concerns, especially about those problems with Dermit. He was a true friend and yet there was a smouldering tension between them. Something unconsummated. As Fnday's dawn approached, she wondered why he hadn't made a move on her yet. He evinced interest, certainly but was he being a gentleman, or was he not enthralled by her womanly charms. She decided to put it to the test the next morning with her most daring one-piece. Lying on the beach the next morning. she asked him if he'd seen the local waterfalls. "Yes. I have he replied. "And a most romantic spot they are. Would you like to see one?" She nodded yes, and he gath- erea their towels and began walk- ing. He held out his hand and she took it, excited and a little afraid of what she'd initiated. They walked back to the hotel and got his rented Porsche. They drove off the main road and parked the car. Holding hands, they walked into the forest. By sheer chance, he'd picked the same waterfall she and Dermit had found. She decided it was better not to show any recogni- tion, and she oohea and ahhed over the sheer splendor of the place. He suggested a swim and they lay theirtowels upon the rocks and dove into the clear pool of sparkling water. Minnows fled in fright as they frolicked in the water. She held her breath and swam under, between his legs. He grabbed them and pulled her back Hoisting her above his head, he threw her back into the water. When she splashed back to him he reached for her ana pulled her to him. They embraced and then somehow her lips met his. They kissed longingly, the tropical birds squawking approval. He broke the kiss first and stared at her. his eyes melting her heart. "Paulina there's something I must continued on page 4 4 ? November 30, 1989 ? The East Cosmopolitan ? It's only a joke; please don't write or phone. Thank you. The Perils of Paulina continued from page 3 tell you He broke off again as she kissed him. their teeth clinking and sliding across each other "Not now. my love she said "It cdn wait. I can't Surprised at her own abandon, she kissed him again, all thoughts of Derm it erased as Forrest wrapped his strong arms around her yielding body and she gave herself to him, body and soul Entwined in his arms that night. underneath the moonlit sky. she began to wonder what he'd wanted to tell her that afternoon They'd made love three times and each time had been more excit- ing and giving Than before He made her feel like a new woman, and she wondered if Fate hadn't brought her back to this island paradise for a reason.

We've been working on it since before you left and last week they started buying up their stock like mad. They must have found out about it. but no one at the com- pany can figure out how Dermit fidgeted with the window handle of the cab and Paulina clutched the handle of her bag. No. she thought, no, oh no it can't be Forrest called that night as she stepped out of the shower. Derm was still at the office, trying to sal- vage what he could of the ruined take-over attempt. "Paulina, you must know by now She didn't let him finish. 'Why'7" She almost screamed She felt like she could've screamed Not now, my love she said. It con wait.

She ae- cided rt could only have been a confession of how he was feeling Reassured, she fell asleep on his strong, naked shoulder, the tropi- cal sky the only witness to her infi- delity. Dermit picked her up at LaGuardia, and she hoped her kisses were as responsive as usual. He didn't seem to notice a differ- ence, but she attributed that to his usual agitation. "I've gotta take you straight home. This take-over's not going too well and I' ve gotta get back to the office. Did you have a good time?" he asked, lugging her baggage to the cab. If he only knew, she thought Her week had been magic, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for him and a little ashamedthat she'd gotten away with what she did. Her parting with Forrest had been sad, but he promised to look her up in New York soon, as he had business there in the coming months. In the cab. Dermit related more of his problems. "The Monahan Company's got wind of the buy- out, and no one seems to know where the leak is. I have to get back before the market closes ana see what I can do" The name of the company passed by Paulina for a moment, then she started. "What what was the name of the company?" Her heart for days. "Why? The whoie time you knew, and you didn't tell me?" The tears came unpidden. drop- ping like waterfalls into a pool on her satin bedroom sheets. "I tried. But you didn't let me Believe me, if there'd been any- other way . his powerful voice drifted off. She unwrapped her towel and let it fall to the floor. "No need to explain. Forrest. " Her voice had become as hard as her heart. The gentle summer breeze that blew through the is- lands had become a bitter Arctic wind "Even I know that all's fair in love and business. And that's all this was to you. wasn't it? Just one more piece of businesstotake care of?" He stammered. "Paul, please, what happened was ?" "What happened, happened in another place. Forrest. Now I have to find out what's going to happen in my life. Goodbye. Mr. Monahan. I'm sure you could use this time better to help your busi- ness instead of helping someone who fell in love with you She slammed down the receiver and was gratified when it rang again almost instantly. She let it ring four- teen times and then it stopped. She walked over to her win- dow and stared out at the city. Naked and vulnerable, she stood in front of the window. There were no tropical birds, but the moonlit sky still smiled its approval. After all, she thought, next year I can al- ways go to Jamaica.

Mr. Rudolph Alexander, assis- tant vice chancellor for Student Life and director of University Unions and Student Activities, has the formidable job of lining up the performances to be pre- sented in Wright Auditorium. Alexander said it all starts with selecting events that will appeal to the people of eastern North Carolina. The events are selected by the Performing Arts Series Committee, which is comprised of knowledgeable and interested representatives from ECU students, faculty and staff, as well as area residents. This committee reviews litera- ture sent to them from many different artists' management companies and agencies. After considering who is touring and what the fees are, the commit- tee decides what events to bring to campus. To keep the costs down, Alexander works with other regional presenters of perform- ing arts to buy several perform- ances of an artist or group within a specific time frame. This is called "block-booking By making these arrangements, Alexander is able to attract groups such as large foreign orchestras whose travel costs are very high. All bookings are done at least one year in advance. After the basic arrangements are made, such as the date, fee and technical requirements, a ver- bal agreement is worked out between the artists' represen- tative and Alexander. This is the time that calls for hard negotiations with the artists' management. After a verbal agreement is reached, the artists' represen- tative sends a formal written contract to Akoxander, who then reads through it very carefully, deleting any clauses or para- grapns that request commit- ments that cannot be met or conflict with university poli- cies. Each change to the con- tract must b? initialed and da ted by Alexander. A cover letter about the changes that were made and a copy of the stan- dard addendum on specific requ irements for using Univer- sity facilities are sent back with the amended contract. The management is required to respond to the changes within a specified time period. If a response is not made, the con- tract is considered void. Some- timesa contract is returned with more changes, and the process is repeated. A great deal of give and take is required to reach a mutually satisfactory arrangement. Special requests are some- times made by presenters and or artists. Occasionally artists maybeasked to participate in a reception. The artists are usu- ally moreeccentricand extrava- gant in their requests, but Alex- ander explained that within the fine arts the requests are gener- ally reasonable. He also noted that any requests for alcoholic beverages are deleted from the contract. Despite the sometimes quirky requests, Alexander said: "Most of the artists are pleasantandappreciativeof the University's hospitality. We very seldom have a difficult time with performers He said that sometimes more estab- lished artists are easier to work with than rising stars because new performers just gaining success tend to have more frag- ile egos. Alexander has held this job for 28 years, and takes great pride in helping to bring the finest artists, ensembles, thea- ter and dance to this series. "This is a major series said Alexander, "the finest and most diverse one offered by anyone in the region. We intend to continue offering the best, and we appreciate the support of the campus, city and our pa- trons. We strive to make each season a little better than the last Because of escalated costs associated with presenting the performing arts, insuring this commitment of excellence is becoming increasingly difficult. At present, monev to fund the senes comes from several dif- ferent sources: a portion of each student's activity fee, ticket sales and grant monies. "In the future adds Alexander, "Pacesetters will become a vi- tal source of fundsenabling the series not only to hold its own, but to experience growth as well I HI IMIRI MM K Pure Gold Dancers dazzle tans Bv HI I H HASS1 1 1 : ? . 14 men bei i " rules for Athletu Inter i- Playhouse ! steps back 200 vears tertain . - m ?

Boasting a 12 inch single thev recently recorded, they have done various performances at the Rio appeared on televi- sion and sung for several radio stations. Perhaps you've heard ol them They're "Thorn, Tim and "orrence It all began Feb. 3 when three ECL students, Thorn irrish, who is a dance major, 1111 Mils, an art education major, and Torrence Mack, a criminal justice major, got to- gether and entered a Starsinger contest sponsored bv Rio! and 1 lot 104. Thev did a group performance as "Thorn, Tim and Torrence singing "Each Time You Break My 1 leart" by ickkamen. After wmningone of the seven week semifinal rounds, thev went on to beat 18 contestants in the finals on Feb. 3 putting them well on their wav to a Kosmos Recording Contract. Not long after their Starsin- ger victory at Rio they danced and sang their way into Audio Arts Recording Studio. In a matter of months. " I horn. I mi and Torrence" had recorded their first 12 inch single, "For- bidden Love Their next step was to have their song mas- tered. The man to do thai was Carlton Batts oi Frankford Wayne Mastering Labs in New York, where music from artists Room addition follows a sports theme By HEATHER DONAGHY Special to The Entertainer Rio! The Club has changed itsatmospherebyaddinganew room to its bar area that carries a sports theme. Following a sports theme is an idea that has taken over many bars and restuarants all over the country. Similar estab- lishments furnished with tele- vision sets, pool tables and sporty games can be found in almost anv city. Rio! management said they added to the bar to till the need tor more customer space. Thev said thev also wanted to ap- peal to more people, and the additionofasportsroom might draw in a group of patrons who have never visited the club before. The room is geared towards those who want a place to relax, watch a game on T.V. and play a game of pool. And, of course, it is also a place to enjoy an ice cold beer. Rio! began work on the sports room shortly after fin- ishing the plans in early Au- gust. Thesports room itself took only three weeks to complete. Construction included the removal of the far wall behind the deejay booth, revealing the expanded area and providing an entrance to the new bar. The new room cost approximately $50,000 to build and the man- agement said it has proved to be a great success with the customers since the grand opening on Aug. 29. As you descend the stairs into the new sports room, you are greeted with the continu- ous sound of cracking pool balls. It may take a moment to adjust vour eves to the bright lighting but the calm atmos- phere is a pleasant escape from the bustling crowd. The elec- tronic beeping and music from the video games mixes with the dull roar of conversation, leav- ing onlv the monotonous pounding of the music you )ust left behind. Surrounding you are recreational diversionsand televisionsdisplavmg the most important sporting events of the evening. It is relaxing to sit back and take it all in for a while before actually becom- ing involved in the room's amusements. The new Rio! sports nxm consists of four pool tables, including a challenge table set up specifically for those play- ers who wish to challenge oth- ers to a game. The challenger pays $1,50 cents more than the cost of a regular game, and his or her name is put on a list to reserve the game. As long as he or she continues to win, they can continue to use the table without paying for anymore games. Other sporty games m- cludefoosball,basketball shoot, electronic dart board and video games. A wet bar is located in the sports room for the thirsty sports fan. Both imported and domestic beers are served. Rio! features pool and foosball tournaments every Wednesday night in the sports room. The prize is a $50 bar tab. on Mondays from 7:30 p.m. such as Vanessa Williams and AT B. Sure has also been mas- tered. Since then, "Thorn, Tim and Torrence" have continued to perform at Rio'and also have appeared on "Awaken" on channel 9, and the Crime Stop- pers Telethon on Greenville Cable. All oi the group's music is original most of which has been written bv Terry I iighsmith. Thev have a dance track which can almost be compared to Depeche Mode lead vocals on all songs are sung by Thorn, with Tim, Tor- rence, acquetta Wilson and Loretta Moore singing backup. Each tune is accompanied with heavy dance and Depech Mode-like sound to entertain music and dance lovers. Not onlv do "Thorn, Tim and Tor- rence" perform the dance, but other ECL" dance students do as well. Laronda Gaskins, Ter- esa Hollowell, Tern Reed and Robert and Dorsey McAden perform with 'Thorn, Tim and Torrence" to the dance routines of their songs. I'hecover works for the "Forbidden Love" al- bum was also done by ECL) art students.
