Whitmire-ECU Photo Lab The state of North Carolina has entered into a five-state agree- ment for the disposal of hazard- ous waste, making the state eli- gible for a portion of money set aside by the federal government toassist states in the cleaning up of abandoned toxic waste sites. North Carolina joins Alabama, Kentucky, South Carolina and Tennessee in a two-year plan for disposing of wastes that are con- sidered hazardous. Any waste that is ignitable, corrosive, reactive or toxic is defined bv law as hazard- ous. The U.S. government had previously approved a federal regulation requiring each state to devise a 20-year plan for manag- ing hazardous waste by Oct. 17, 1989 with failure to comply result- ing in the loss of federal funds For the state of North Caro- lina, failure to comply with the regulation would have resulted in a loss of approximately $26 mil- lion for two sites currently under consideration. The new agreement, passed in December, brings North Carolina into compliance with federal regu- lation and law; however, officials said North Carolina may still lose a portion of the Superfund money since the agreement was signed after the Oct. 17 deadline. North Carolina's chemical and allied industries generated ap- proximately 2.8 billion pounds of hazardous waste in 1988. Officials maintained that most hazardous waste is treated on site?90 per- cent or 2.5 billion pounds -but at least 300millionpoundsisshipped out-of-state for treatment. SouthCarolinahaspreviously disposed of North Carolina's haz- ardous waste that could not be treated on site by the waste's pro- ducers, but South Carolina hasalso banned North Carolina from us- ing the treatment facilities in the past for various reasons. The new agreement ensures that North Carolina will have reliable access to hazardous waste disposal sites. Federal law requires that in- dustries dispose of hazardous waste within 90 days of the timeof generation. Without the appro- priate means of disposal, those industries producing toxic wastes would have to close, but the five- state pact providesN.C. industries with continuous access to treat- ment facilities. Under the terms of the agree- ment, North Carolina will build units for combusting hazardous waste, treating contaminated soil and treating and recycling haz- ardous solvents. The state is also responsible for locating a landfill for the disposal of incinerator ash. The Hazardous Waste Man- agement Commission will actively seek volunteer host communities for the new facilities, but officials said the sites for the long-term disposal of toxic substances have not been selected.

It isa well known fact that many diseases such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital warts, genital herpes, .md All S are spread through sexual prac- j tices i'r k hi ing 'safer sex" means being aware of hese diseases, showing concern about yourself and your sexual partner by knowingaboutyour partner's ii'alt h anil sexual pat terns, and communicating with each other to reduce your chances ol getting or spreading a sexually transmitted disease. Abstinence is the best means to protect against Sexuall) Transmitted Diseases. Anyone and every- one who chooses to be sexually active needs to be aware of "safer sex" practices. The best ways to plav safe are to get to know your partner's health ind sexual patterns and to use condoms when having sex.

But soon, as the American lawyer put it, "Thecase tiHk on the fever pitch of a tender offer The legal team worked 20- hour days, transcribed "forgot- ten" tapes and proved the judge had never advised Johnson of his right to appeal. They believed his confession had been coerced. With 48 hours left before the scheduled Aug. 4, 1986, death, Mississippi stayed the execution. In March 1987, the New York Court of Appeals unanimously threw out the Rochester convic- tions. But it wasn't the end. Amaz- ingly, Mississippi's high court said the work of New York's top court wasn't credible. Judges comments took on overtones of North vs. South. Nine of the 12 states that have recently used the death penalty are below the Mason-Dixon line. Just as re- markably, the two states went to the U.S. Supreme Court. In June W88, the justices sided with New York. They ordered a new trial to determine whether lohnson indeed deserves the death penalty. lllnois Johnson plans to be at the new trial. He and Paduano say his son tried to stop the gun- man, not encourage him. Thecase has attracted the attention of in- ternational human-rights groups. The elder and younger lohnson talk by phone about four times a month. That calculates to abou 140 more conversations than either had any reason to expect. The sobering part: They're lucky. Bush-Noriega Connection How far does it go? By Nathaniel Mead I ilitoriai Columnist During the Reagans Administration's second term. Attorney General Edwin Meese tried to stop the Miami based contra-CIA drug connection in- vestigation. It was a fascinating state of affairs, although for some reason the popular press failed to give it much notice. But our pres- ent situation, with General Man- uel Noriega of Panama standing trial in Miami, could prove even more fascinating. Some believe he may have the inside scoop on tor- merQA director George Bush and his connections to a large-scale contra-CIA drug smuggling net- work. Noriega has been tagged as a narcotics trafficker, a murderer (he had killed more than HX) mem hers of his own military in the weeks since the failed coup of October 3, 1989), and a strangler of democracy. He is suspected of being at the center of an illicit enterprise that played on Panama's strategic location as a major transfer point for Colum- bian refined cocaine headed for the U.S. and a sate haven for the leading Colombian drug lords. But the drug-running dictator may have more big secrets to tell than simply concern his dealings with the Colombians Not only did he have specific connections with our Drug Enforcement Administra- tion and Cl A, but Noriega directly supported the contra cause in Nicaragua. Before joining the Reagan Administration, Bush was CIA chief and Noriega was a paid CIA informant The two men had lunch togetherin Washington in late 147h when each man directed his country's intelligence service; their next recorded meeting was in Panama in December 1983. Bush has never disclosed the substance of his meetings with Noriega, but Noriega himself has passed on information regarding the second meeting. According to Washing ton Post and former Newsweek writer Kevin Buckley, an author- ity on U.SPanamanian policy, Noriega said that Bush wanted help for the contras so badly that the U.S. government would turn a blind eye to money-laundering and setbacks in democracy in Panama. During the Reagan years, Bush's close communications with North, Poindexter, and other members of the Contra-support team should have alerted him to Nonega'sdnigTunningactivities Noriega had several meetings with Lt. Col. North, whom Noriega described as a boastful nait, eager for the approval of a machismo guerilla effort to eliminate the Sandinistas. At one recorded meeting, Noriega left with a list oi targets inside Nicaragua which he had offered to blow up for Col. North and the U.S. government. In H86, Noriega offered to use his numerous assets in Nicaragua for a campaign of sabotage against theSandinistas anoffer to which both Colonel North and Admiral Poindexter consented. By this time, Noriega's drug-trafficking activities were already well- known, which shows just how obsessed the Reagan Administra- tion had become by Nicaragua. In December 1985, Bush met with Edward Everett Bnggs, then ambassador to Panama Bnggs had already sent many cables to the State Department recounting allegations of Noriega's role in drug trafficking. A memorandum prepared for Bush prior to the meeting described its purpose as to "discuss U.S. relations with Panama and narcotics matters But early in 1988, after the memo- randum was leaked, Bush charac- teristically denied that any link between Noriega and drug traf- ficking had been mentioned. Bnggs, after initially declining to comment, backed up his story tor the New York Times. Why would Bush try to hide his knowledge of Noriega? Law- yers of the Washington, D.C- based Christie Institute say that former CIA director Bush not only knew about Noriega's drug-traf- ficking activities, but was himseli instrumental in importing hun dreds of tons of illegal drugs into the United States Testimony bv the Christie Institute's small armv of lawyers, by convicted drug smugglers,and by private citizens on CBS's West 57th Street pro- gram all provide a startling por- trait of large-scale drug traffick- ing under the auspicesof the eon tras and the U.S. government. According to the Christie In- stitute, an interfaith legal founda- tion, "contra narcotics smuggling stretches from cocaine plantations in Colombia, to dirt airstrips in Costa Rica, to pseudo-seafood companies in Miami, and finally, to the drug-ridden streets ot our society The Institute's extensive investigation (TheChristic Institute Special Report, 188) provided support for allegations that the contra leadership received direct funding and other support from major narcotics traffickers, that U.S. government funds for the contras went to known narcotics dealers, including Noriega; and that the CIA helped Miami-based drug traffickers smuggle cocaine into the U.S. in exchange for the drug traffickers' help in arming the contras. In their 1988 report, the Chris- tic Institute presents massive documentation prepared bv more than 50 volunteer trial lawyers. The report includes sworn depo- sitions from nearly 3(X) ev-CIA operatives, Cuban-American vet- erans of theanti-Castrocampaign, Columbian drug smugglers, and contra civilian leaders. The Institute's most compelling alle- gation was that a "secret team of mercenaries, drug lords, and re- tired military men has for 25 years engineered extensivecovert activi- ties not only in Nicaragua, but in Cuba, Iran, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. It's great stuff for novels, but evidently not for court hearings Even though some of the Institute's findings were later confirmed bv the Iran-Contragate investiga- tions, their civil lawsuit against secret team members was dis missed in the summer of 1988 by federal Judge James King Why such an abrupt ending to such a well-presented lawsuit1 The Bo ton Clobe (June 22, 1988) says the conservative King dismissed the suit because it "was too hot to handle in an election year The Christie lawyers say that the King ruling was made to protect George Bush, because their evidence raised many heavy-duty questions about Bush's role in covert illegal activities his knowledge ol Noriega's drag-trafficking habits and his awareness as former C IA director of illegal arms sales and political assassination programs m the Middle Fast. Perhaps there s an even simpler formula: while people hire lawyers, politicians hire judges If the allegations are tnie, what interest could our own govern- ment could have in transporting narcotics into this country? I can see only two possible reasons First, the influential ba kersol the Reagan-Bush doctrine soek to roll back communism through cover! guerilla warfare, and powerful drug traffickers, like Nori provide a vehicle for this effort Second, Bush and his CIA cronies may have wanted to ensure the ongoing passage ol big monev throughU.S banks Forinstance about SKKI billion worth of co came is sold eaeh year in the U s and much ot this money is used b . our banks. That's enough monev to keepthe banker friendsofBush very happy. Indirect connections may plav a roleas well. As with the D E ruetul experience in Mi-xio I S government seems mail interested in strong business ties even it some of the business j blatantly unethical. In this case t he bu si ness seems to invol ve sh i p merits of illegal narcotics by those sworn to protect and defend our Constitution vVhyelscwouldagovcrnmi I want to sanction the importatii n ol drugs to the U S.?Tospread the seeds ot social .n cultural di- cord? It's not a pretty thought, but that's not the point. The sad fact is this: drugs weaken minds and make this country more unstable and less productive. Drugged out teachers can't teach, and drugged out Students can t learn effectively. Drugged out missile operators, pilots, and surgeons endanger many lives. Drugged out politi- cians can't tell a bellicose corr.mi from a peace-loving hippie. Mv own cynicism in the Nori- ega affair is rooted in the dicta tor's long-standing relationship with the CIA and, bv some accounts, the eight-member National Secu- rity Council, of which Bush was a member It's extremely hard to believe that Noriega's role as "narco-dictator" could have eluded Bush during his high-level participation with the CIA and with the NSC later on. Meanwhile the Christie Institute's case awaits appeal, and Noriega has vet to be heard Stay tuned! Noriega is clearly a trophv for Bush's "war on drugs a war which seems to be helping him erase the "u mp factor" and make up for his abject failure as drug czar tor the Reagan administra- tion . Perhaps Bush is also trying to convince the American people that he has been against drugs all along and that he could not possibly acquiesce to drug smuggling. The evidence suggests otherwise. In- deed, perhaps the most pathetic point raised bv the Noriega affair is Bush's proclivity for deception and hypocrisy. If you're must lie, as some presidents seem impelled to do, at least do it well. And if venire going to fight drugs, do it without paying lipservice to known drug lords.

"It's a terrible thing he said. The Armenian news agency, Armenpress.said some 1,5tV)rofu gees were arriving dailv in the Armenian capital of Yerevan. On luesda, the official Tass news agency said 2,000 people armed with anti-aircraft guns and other artillery were massing on hills around Nagorno-Karabakh, the flashpoint for the neighboring groups' ethnic hatreds. President Mikhail S. Gor- bachev declared a state of emer- gent in the strife-torn mountain area Monday night, empowering the government to deploy units of the Soviet army, navy and RGB to protect lives and guard vital in stallations such as railroads More than 6,000 additional internal se- curity troops were sent Tuesday to reinforce existing Interior Min- istry detachments, Tass said. To assist them, more than 5,000 Red Army soldiers, who traditionally carry heavier weap- onry, also were dispatched, Tass said. Soviet media did not say how many troops already were in the region. Tass said that in Armenia, "demands are being made to arm citizens and send them to Na- gorno-Karabakh The govern- ment newspaper lzvestia reported lh attacks on weapons depots in 24 hours bv Armenians seeking guns. The troops have been in- structed to get tougher with the fighters, Seleznvov said, and sol- diers opened fire Tuesday when an armed group tried to take five armored personnel earners near the village of Tazikcnd. "Since then, attempts to take APCs have stopped, because be- fore this they weren't used to having weapons used against them he said by telephone. Combatants in the Nagorno- Karabakh region had seized stores of hand grenades, the Interior Ministry said. The flareup is the most vio- lent between mainly Moslem Azerbaijanisand mostly Christian Armenians since their decades-old feud over Nagorno-Karabakh erupted in bloody clashes two years ago. The enclave has been ruled by Azerbaijan since 1923and the current troubles were sparked by its demand in February 1988 to be annexed by Armenia. Internal security troops al- ready in the region have been incapable of halting the most pro- tracted ethnic conflict in Gorbachev's nearly five-year ten- ure as Kremlin leader.

At a news conference, Barco said in answer to a question about the possibility of talks, "We in the government are not inflexible The crucial elements in the achievement of a definitive agree- ment arc the legal guarantees that the communique requested. In certain circles it was men- tioned that the drug lords aspire to an amnesty similar to that which the Colombian Congress granted last month to the guerrillas in exchange for their laving down their arms. However, Interior Minister Carlos LernosSirnrnonds said Tuesday the law allows no amnesty for common criminals.

Another 11 states have regulations affecting workplace drug testing Regulated testing Random testing prohibited By Jack Kelley Gannett News Service WASHINGTON ? The first plan to encourage drug testing in private workplaces by establish- ing national standards for accu- racy has been unveiled. The plan comes as 90,000 rail- road employees Tuesday begin random drug testing required by federal regulations. The timing is right said former Surgeon General C. Ever- ett Koop, a supporter of the bill. "The public is discouraged be- cause we're not winning this war. The work place is one of the best places to start The bill, sponsored by Sens. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and David Boren, D-Okla ? Protects private businesses wanting to test workers. ? Leaves i t to employers as to what action to take if a worker tests positive for drug use. - Sets certification standards for drug-testing labs ? some of which have been accused of being unfit. "All clinical labs should be certified so that tests are accurate and reliable says Hatch. "Em- ployees must know that tests will be done accurately Critics ? like the ACLU ? say the bill encourages increased random drug testing at the ex pense o f workers' privacy and plan to lobby against it. The Bureau of Labor Statistics says only 3.2 per- cent of all private businesses now test for drugs ? most because government contracts require it. CCvtyntht 1990. US TODAY AppU Collft Information Network Global study rates school systems U.S. education funding ranks low By Dennis Kelley Gannett News Service The U.S. ranks 14th out of 16 industrialized nations in the per- cent of national income spent on education from preschool through high secondary school, a new study says. The liberal Economic Policy I nstiru te, a labor backed economic think tank, says its survey under- mines Bush administration claims that the USA spends more per pupil than other major countries Administration officials immedi- ately attacked the survey's meth- odology. Co-authors M. Edith Rasell and Lawrence Mishel all took 1985 figures, the last year for which all nations' figures were available, and compared spending as a per- cent of the gross domestic; not national product to find: ?The USA ranks 14th for its preschool through secondary school funding, adjusted for sizes of school populations. That puts it ahead of only Ireland and Austra- lia. ?The na tion is in a three-way tie for second in education spend- ing, if monies for collegesand other post-secondary institutions are included. But higher education isn't the problem, Mishel says. "The problem is K (kindergarten) through 12 ?If the U.S. were to increase spending for primary and secon- dary schools to the average of the other 15 countries, it would need to spend $20 billion more annu- ally. An acerbic Education Depart- ment statement responds that the report "has mixed apples, oranges and moonbeams to produce an indigestible concoction It says the more accurate view of per- pupi 1 expenditures shows the US A second only to Switzerland in education spending. The department statement says, for example, that education funding was 3.9 percent of Mississippi's budget in 1986, but 3.7 percent of Minnesota's. Yet Minnesota spent $4,180 per pupil, Mississippi just $2,350. Mishel says per-pupil com- parisons fail because poorer na- tions simply can't afford as much. Looking at spending as part of a nation's wealth tells more about its commitment to education. "We don't say money will solve the problem Mishel says.

The likeli- hood of a shortfall in tax collec- tions, combined with reluctance to raise taxes during an election year, will make the proposed state lottery a more powerful issue, several lawmakers say. "I think it will be pushed to the hilt said House Minority Leader Johnathan Rhyne, R-l.in- coln. "Some would speculate that some people are happy that we're in this position so that the lottery would have a better chance. I think that's unfortunate Rep. David Diamont, D-Surry, House Appropriations Commit- tee chairman, said the tight budget year may force some legislators to support proposals that otherwise would be unattractive. "As they begin to realize that we have to come up with addi- tional revenue or cut major pro- grams significantly, they're going to look for other major revenues Diamont, who opposes a lottery, told the Greensboro News & Rec- ord in an interview published Wednesday. Last year, the state Senate passed a bill to provide a state- wide referendum to institute a lottery. The lottery would be ex- pected to raise about $200 million for state needs. The bill is now in the House of Representatives and could be taken up during the short session, which starts May 21. Earlier this month, Gov. Jim Martin was forced to cut an aver- age of 2.5 percent from the money distributed to state agencies. It was the fourthconsecutivequarter that funds to state agencies had been cut. With nearly all legislators facing re-election in November, support for a major tax wcwm isn't likely. "It might be easier for them to vote for a lottery instead of a tax increase Diamont said Sen. Bill Martin, D-Guiltord, one of the primary sponsors of lottery legislation, said the budget crunch will make the lottery a major issue during the short ses- sion. "You'll find a lot of folks fight- ing hard against it, saying if we want to take care of budget prob- lems, we should have the gu?s to raise taxes Martin said. "Bu" those are the same folks who always fight increasingany taxes He said a lottery won't solve all the state's needs ? from edu- cation to fighting drugs to pris- ons. "A lottery will be a significant part of it Martin said. "We need to look at other areas (for addi- tional money), but a lottery is a very significant part of trying to get us out of this dilemma we're in See LOTTERY, page 8 Page 6 Stlit lEast (garnltnianl Classifieds January, 18,1990 FOR RENT WANTED: Female roommate needed to share two bedroom apt rent and utilities will be split in halt I k ated off 10th st close to campus ' s 62 vS MALE WANTED : To share 2 bedroom apt at Tar River Estates among people Rent $136 13 of utilities Close to campus Bus route Call 830- 5x32 Ask for Han or David CLEAN, RESPONSIBI T S 1 I 1H N 1 NEEDED: To share 1 bedroom apartment Ask for Jeff or Rodney r57 DISPLAY CLASSIFIEDS 0485 ROOMMA II Ml IMP: Nicely decorated townhouse centrally located Approx $118 month plus i 3 utilities Prel non smoker tor more info please call 355-4143 ROOMMATE NEEDED: ASAP Cannon CtApts Slit- month 830-0382 MAIL ROOMMATE WANTED: $150 month t l2utilities I mi form campus on bus route Responsible upperclassman prefered Call 830-0640, K-ave message ROOMMA n WAN 11 V.

Time is running out on Mobil Oil Corps plans to sink an exploratory natu- ral gas well off Cape Hatteras this year, state and company officials say Mobil had planned to begin drilling as soon as May under a "memorandum of understand- ing" announced last summer be- tween the company, the state and the federal government. State and federal officials since then have recommended postponing the project, and a Mobil official said Tuesday that any significant de- lays would prevent the company from drilling this year. Mobil has proposed search- ing for natural gas near the edge of the Continental Shelf, about 4(1 miles off the Outer Banks, under nearly 3,000 feet of water. William C. Whittemore, a lawyer with Mobil'sexploration branch in New Orleans, said the company still has not agreed to a p ?tponement. But any significant delays, he said, would not leave enough time to drill this year. Under the memorandum of understanding,or MOU, Mobil is scheduled to file an exploration plan by Jan. 31. rhe company also must drill its exploratory well See DRILLING, page 10 RUSH PHI KAPPA TAU Duke doctor committed to a psychiatric clinic wins hearing RALEIGH (AP) ?

West Germany on Tuesday backed off on its drive to establish closer ties, saying it would wait until after free elec- tions promised for May b. East German workers held more work stoppages to protest a growing listof grievances For the first time in such warning strikes, they pro tested government-mandated pnce increases. The growing tension was addressed by national police chief Dieter VVinderlich when he dis- cussed Monday night's storming of secret police headquarters dur- ing a news conference: "We have to do everything so that the reform process can go forward with the peaceful means that have characterized it to date, to keep it from resulting in occur- rences resembling civil war Since the fall ot hard-line leader Fnch 1 Eonecker on CVt. 18, East Germany's leaders routinely have called tor calm and warned that violence could hurt efforts to establish true democracy in the country Hut Winderlich, also a deputy interior minister, was the first top -ranking official to men- tion civil war Opposition groups have ac- cused the government of Com- munist Premier 1 lans Modrow of exaggerating security threats in an apparent attempt togain politi- cal support and ushfy maintain- ing a security police force. The government savs it is dismantling the secret police, but critics accuse it ot toot dragging. Nationwide, protests have continued by hundreds of thou sands of people who have de- manded that theCommunistsgive up their virtual control of the government, media, bureaucracy and economy. The unrest appar- ently prompted Chancellor Helmut Kohl of West C .ermany to scrap plans for negotiating stronger ties with the Modrow government. Kohl said the talks could wait until after free elec- tions.

Representatives of the countries will meet again in New York in about two weeks, then again in late Eebruarv in Tans to push the peace program ahead as quickly as possible "We're at least going to make a strong try at it said a senior U.S. official, briefing reporters on condition ot anonymity.

The East Carolinian, January 18, 1990 9 Bush, Congress will battle over China By Marilyn Greene Gannett News Service Congress is putting on the gloves for a brawl with President Bush over U.S. policy toward China Among the first items of busi- ness when Congress reconvenes Jan. 23: A push to override Bush's veto of a bill extending U.S. visas tor Chinese students. Efforts to enact sanctions in protest over China's continuing repression, despite the lifting of martial law in Beijing Bush imposed sanctions after the Chinese government's crack down on students in lune, subse- quently easing bans on sales of satellites to China and loans and guarantees. Many in Congress believe it's too early to lift sanctions because few freedoms arc yet available in China. Laws against strikes, pub- lic gatheringsand demonstrations remain on China's books despite the end of nearly eight months of martial law Chinese authorities' continu- ing repression of dissent "rein- forces our argument says Rep Nancy Pelosi,D-Calif, author of a bill that would waive a U.S. re- quirement that Chinese students return home for two years when their visas expire. Passage of the law, vetoed by Bush in November, will "send a very clear message to the people in Beijing that there has to be some change in the way they treat their people if there's to be continued opening up Pelosi says. Sen. Paul Simon, D-lll says he "welcomes the end to martial law, "but it is not satisfactory in terms of really, substantively eas- ing and improving relations. We have to send a stronger signal to China than we've been sending. The White House on the whole Chinese question has been, franklv, very anemic in standing up for freedom He'll also back the move to extend student's visas: "Whether it's a veto override or new legisla- tion, I'll be for it.

The study is the strongest yet to support the idea that prevention of heart disease should begin in early childhood particularly with diet, says Pr Myron Weisfeldt, president of the American Heart Association. Though restricting fat in kids' diets at a very early age is contro- versial, the AHA recommends a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet be- ginning at age 3. It also recom- mends never smoking, getting regular exercise and avoiding excessive alcohol. Among the study's findings, presented Monday at an AHA science writers torum: Bv the late teens, fatty de- posits are well established in the arteries of a small but significant percentage oi people deposits large enough to begin narrowing the arteries. Bv age 23, people who smoke and have high cholesterol levels have twice as many artery deposits as people who don't smoke and have normal choles- terol levels. ?By ages 30-34, about 25 percent of white males have fatty deposits in their arteries. "This is very important infor- mation, the best ever to show a real relationship in voung people K'tween atherosclerosis (harden- ing of the arteries) and risk fac- tors said Pr. Myron Weisfeldt, Al 1A president The findings were made bv examining the arteries ot about 3(X) voung people who died in accidents and by testing their blood for cholesterol levels and evidence of smoking. The nation- wide study, sponsored bv the National Heart, Lung and Blood Germany Institute, will continue until about 1,800 people have been examined. "The study is well on its way to confirming that heart disease begins in childhood, advances rapidly in early adulthood and is profoundly influenced by risk factors savs study spokesman Dr. Henry McCill, scientific direc- tor of the Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research, in San Antonio, a participant in the 15- center study. Other studies have shown that fatty deposits can be found as young as age three and that these deposits can change into the plaques that cause heart attacks and strokes in adulthood.

But it the timetable is extended, he said, the company will be "pushed past the 1990 window Hie state and the Minerals Management Service, the federal agency that must approve all off- shore drilling, have recommended delaying the project until they can gather more information on ocean currents and potential impacts on offshore fisheries. Although Mbil must ap- prove any changes in the time- table, the minerals service could decide that the company's explo- ration plan is incomplete if it doesn't agree to the additional studies. That determination, in effect, would postpone the project anyway. "It s prettv clear that the pres- ent dates arc going to slip and are not going to be met said Donna P.

(AP) - The evangelist who introduced PTL founder Jim Bakker to church secretary Jessica Hahn has pleaded innocent to charges that he lied to a grand jury about his reason for setting up the meeting. John Wesley Fletcher, 49, a frequent guest on Bakker's TV show, entered the plea to one perjury count on Tuesday before U.S. Magistrate Paul Taylor. The judge set trial for the court's April term. It was the disclosure of hush payments to Ms Hahn following her 1980 sexual liaison with Bakker that eventually led to the demise of Bakker's multimillion-dollar PTL empire. Bakker is serving a 45-year federal prison term in Minnesota after being convicted last fall of fraud and conspiracy. He was found guilty of bilking followers who sent him $158 million in ex- change for free lodging guaran- tees at his Heritage USA Christian retreat in nearby Fort Mill, S.C Another former Bakker asso- ciate, the Rev. Sam Johnson, did not appear in court for hisarraign- ment on perjury charges. Court officials said Johnson's attorney had given notice that his client would waive his nght to appear at his arraignment The attorney, Bill Osteen, told the U.S. District Court clerk's of- fice that he planned to enter Johnson's plea today. Last month, Johnson said he intended to plead innocent. Both men are accused of lying to the special grand jury that in- vestigated PTL's operations un- der Bakker's leadership. That panel met for 17 months before indicting Bakker and three of his former associates Fletcher had met Ms. Hahn when he cond ucted revival services on New York's Long Island, where she was a church secretary. Fletcher told the grand jury working part-time with hisbrothrr in the roofing business in Dur ham. He declined to comment on the charges following the hearing Johnson, former pastor of HeritageVillageChurchatPTl .is accused of lying to the grand jun. about the source of a $10,000 loan that he made to one of Bakker s aides. The money eventually was given to Ms Hahn to keep her quiet about the 1980 encounter with Bakker, the indictment said Johnson gave the money to former PTL executive vice presi- dent Richard Dortch in Novem- ber 1984 Ms Hahn later received $265,000 in PTL money in ex- change for her silence, the indict ment said. Dortch, who was charged with Bakker, pleaded guilty to fraud and conspiracy h iU ' il charges, sentenced to eight years during one appearance that he LI ?

But during a later appearance before the gTand jury, Fletcher said sex was the motive behind the introduction and that Bakker had told him to "Get me a woman Prosecutors said they don't plan to call Ms. Hahn as a witness at Fletcher's trial. Fletcher told reporters he is Two other former Bakker as sociates ? brothers James and David Taggart ? were convicted of evading tax payments on more than $1.1 million in PTL funds that they used for personal expen- ditures. If convicted, Johnson and Fletcher each face up to five years in prison and fines of up to $250,000.

Attorney General's office sug- gested that such a ma neuvermight lead to heavy fines from federal courts, since the state would be unable to meet space requirements for inmates To settle a federal suit, the state has spent $130 million build- ing new prisons in recent years to give inmates more space. But the construction will not increase the number of beds, while the state's growing population and intensi- fied law enforcement result in more people sent to prison each year Gov im Martin has proposed a $490.5 million bond issue to add 9,500 beds, increasing capacity from 18,000 inmates to 27,500. Sen. Robert G. Shaw, R- Guilford, suggested "cheap, wooden barracks" similar to pris- oner-of-war camps as an interim solution. Hunt and Sen. J. Richard Conder liked the idea.

But the appeals court said the evidence presented tended to indicate those state- ments were true, removing them from slander consideration. In another case, the appeals court ruled that a dozen Harnett County residents could not be forced to pay connection fees or monthly bills for sewer service because the county had failed to follow state laws regarding the collections. The landowners had claimed they were not properly notified of assessments for the Buies Creek- Coats Water and Sewer District. The county had contended the connection fees were not assess- ments, as defined by state law, and the notifications were not needed. But the appeals court said the county could not avoid notifica- tion of the assessments by calling them something else. It also or- dered the county to pay attorney fees for the landowners. The appeals court also ruled against the Village of Pinehurst, which had sought to block the sale of the town's water and sewer system to a private company. The village, once a privately owned resort town, cited a 1973 agreement with the town's devel- opers that gave the village the first N.C. State lays off teachers RALEIGH (AP) ? North Carolina State University is lay- ing off dozens of instructors and canceling numerous classes in the wake of a budget crunch caused by a drop in state revenues. The cuts are the result of an order by state budget officers to reduce the campus' 1989-90 budget by 5 percent, or $9nillion est day of my professiona I career, said William B. Toole, dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. His college, the second largest at the university, has lost $1 million of its$20million budget. The layoffs apparently are confined to non-tenured instruc- tors and visiting professors who typically work on year-to-year contracts. At least six visiting professors in the department of sociology, anthropology and so- cial work were told Wednesday afternoon that their teaching loads would be cut in half and their teachingdutiesdistributed among full-time professors. Among them was Charles S. Warren, a doctoral candidate at UNC-Chapel Hill who typically teaches two courses each semes- ter. "This is just going to kill edu- cation Warren said. "I've already taught three lectures. The kids have already bought their books and two weeks of instruction is going to be shot in the head. It's happening all over campus. "No wonder our SAT scores are the lowest in the nation if this is the way we treat education in the elite institutions. This is cut- ting back all the way to the bone Dale M. Hoover, head of the department of economics and business, said faculty members there had been forced to drop five or six class sections. "We're asking people who have written contracts to allow us to disemploy them Hoover said "We're doing our best not to hurt the quality of education, but there's no way we can make the changes without hurting the qual- ity. They have not literally asked us to drop any course and turn students away, but that's hard to do. To meet the guidel ines exactly, you have almost no flexibility N.C. State's budget crunch is complicated by the fact that roughly 320 fewer out-of-state students enrolled this year than had been expected. Because those students pay about $4,600 tuition, as compared with about $600 for in-state students, their absence translates to an additional loss of $13 million. option to buy utility systems owned by developers. But in a split decision, the court said the agreement for a 90-day first op- tion contained no time limit and could not be held "in perpetuity Judges Edward Greene and Charles Becton ruled against the town, but Judge Eugene Phillips dissented, saying the option in the agreement is valid. In other decisions, the court: ? Upheld a jury decision which awarded Screaming Eagle Air Ltd. $109,000 in damages from the Airport Commission of For- syth County. The company had sued the airport commission in 1987 after one of their planes hit a dog on the runway and the nose gear collapsed. The appeals court ruled that the jury correctly could determine negligence because the five-mile perimeter of the airport is only partly enclosed with a chain-link fence, and because air- port employees killed an average of 80 to 100 dogs each year. ? Ruled that the State Board of Registration for Professional Engineersand Land Surveyors can suspend an engineer's license or fine him $500, but not both. The board had suspended William E. Bruce for two years and fined him $500 after he approved designs for two schools in Caldwell and Mecklenburg counties that were inadequate. The board said Bruce's approval showed professional incompetence and negligence. The court upheld the board's ruling, but said the board could only impose one penalty, not two. ? Upheld a lower court rul- ing allowing the state Department of Transportation to recover pay- ments to Thompson-Arthur Pav- ing Co. for work on two roads in Guilford County. As part of the two contracts, the department had paid the company for "unclassi- fied excavation" based on DOT estimates. But when the projects were completed, DOT re-surveyed and found less of the excavation had been done than the estimates. The company argued that work- ing with smaller amounts of earth increased its cost per cubic yard. Harris teeter Mixed Pork Chops 2.59 Sirloin Pork ChopLb. JLa-JN Sirloin Pork OQ Roast Lb JL.?t Lb.

BE CONFIDENT OF YOURSELF. A fraternity will be affected by your body and verbal language. A firm handshake U vital to a good first impression. 2. LOOK YOUR BEST AT ALL TIMES. You probably will not get a bid from a fraternity because of the way you dress and look, but your appearance can KEEP you from getting a bid. 3. NEVER BE ARROGANT! Try not to act as if you were already a pledge or brother of the house. If a house plans on inviting you back, they will. 4. NEVER HESITATE TO INTRODUCE YOURSELF. When you are introduced to someone, repeat his or her name. However, with all the people that you will meet, do not feel like you have to remember everyone's name. 5. ASK QUESTIONS if there is anything that you want to know about the fraternity: finances, sports, grades, activities, etc. 6. Just because a lot of guys from your HOMETOWN are in a certain fraternity, or just because you think one or more of your FRIENDS are going to pledge a certain fraternity, this DOES NOT necessarily mean that the fraternity is right for YOU! Pledge the fraternity that can do the most for you and where you feel most comfortable. 7 Attend the parties of AS MANY different fraternities as you can, especially if you are not sure about which f.J you are interested in. In other words, SHOP AROUND. Be- sides, it's a great chance to get to know more about the Creek system which you are about to join. 8. If you have any questions about rush or need advice in a particular situation, come by the 1FC office in the Mendenhall Student C?nt?r or call 757-4706 .

The small obscure shop, on the corner of West 9th and South Washington Streets, contains a variety of high-quality outlet, ir- regular, factory damaged and second hand shoes, along with a few other knick-knacks such as ties and socks. ECU student Brian Felton recently discovered the shop through a friend by word of mouth. "I bought two pairs there Felton said. "1 got a new pair of Bucks that are $50 in most stores for $29 and a pair of gortex and leather Timberline boots that are usually over $12(1 tor only $25 dollars According to Leslie Mills, owner and operator of the store, the main reason for the low prices is that the shoes, although in ade- quate shape, can not be sold on the shelvesof most department stores Mills said that he buys his merchandise straight from facto- ries and outlets and that about 50 of his shoes are second hand. "Manv of these shoes were bought by someone in a department store and worn only once before thev were returned because they didn't tit right, were missing a shoelace or something like that. The de- partment store returns them to the manufacturer and then 1 buv them Mills also buys many of his shoes from factories that manu- facture too many shoes for a par- ticular order.

"Our prices are really- good and most of the shoes will last as long or longer than good store bought shoes Mills opened the shop in August of 1981, when he gave up the money he had saved for a brand new van and bought a large quantity of outlet shoes. Since then the shoe shop has onlv been a sideline family business, as Mills' wife, mother, and father have all worked long, hours selling shoes. Mills compares buyingaused shoe to buying a new car 'When vou buv a car, you're better off buying a used Mercedes than buying aadillacandtl sthesame with shot's You're better off buy ing a used quality shoe than buy- ing a new cheap one ' Mills, 48, said student busi- ness has been improving but is still slow. "Recently, I'vehad more and more students I appreciate the university business, but it's just hard to get (the students) in According to Mills, custonv ersof all kinds come into the store. "Take last Saturday tor example. a stockbroker came in and Knight a pair,and a professor came in and Knight four Herbert Powell, service man- ager at Hastings Ford is also a preferred customer, I shop here every two to three months; the prices are extremely cheap he said.

The show featured the work of four artists, two of whom arc from Hast Carolina's own Sch(Hil of Art. Prior to thf reception, visiting artists Phil and Beth Stovall per- formed a short cotnk opera en- titled "The Telephone The skit dealt with the presence of the tele- phone in the modem home as an omnipresent dictator. Though the script was no Gilbert and Sullivan treatment, and more than a bit predictable, the performers did a good job with it, making it the highlight of the reception. Following the performance, modest refreshments were served and viewing oi tin1 works began. Framed pieces adorned the walls around the open areas ot the gal- lery, while scattered throughout the room and under glass case's were the sculptures. The sculpture was done by Durham artist Chester Williams, and featured a variety of figures leaning toward the abstract. The larger pieces were bronze combi- nations of space-splitting angu- larsand decorative elements, per- haps the most visually appealing oi which was ' Ussi Art: Mask I Inder glass were smaller bronzed heads thai followed an oriental motif, with "3rd lapanese Figu nne" standing out quite well.

Pickin the Bones: Bonehead likes pornography By Chippy Bonehead Staff Pornographer I love pornography. In fact, I love it so much, I'm willing to utilize my precious col- umn space to defend it, thereby risking total public humiliation, scoffing, mortification,abasement and a bunch of other neat syno- nyms I looked up.

Religious fanatics, feminists, your mother, moral upstanding pillars of the community, anal retentive school administrators and girls all think porno is sick. They think it's nothing but stimu- lation for all the latent voyeuristic and exhibitionistic kinks in your personality, and if you look at too much of it, you'll go completely round the bend and become a necrophiliac homosexual dog molester. And you can't even say, "I just like the photography arhdesads in the back" because everybody knows you onlv look at those after you've spent yourself and you're too tired to get up and get a towel.

Weight gained over holidays A telephone poll of SI4 adults shows that 43 percent said they gained weight during the holidays. The USA TODAY survey discovered that those who gained put on six pounds, which took an average of five weeks to lose. Many chose the tirst fad diet that came their way. Toothbrush changes advised Dental experts say toothbrushes should be changed every two to three weeks, and more often in cases oi cold or flu, says a report in the Academy of General Dentistry newsletter. Reason: Keeping the same toothbrushes causes continual reinfection by various viruses. Dieters lose weight through fad diets Losing weight, then regaining it, may have negative consequences on metabolism and health, warns obesity researcher Kelly Brownell from the University of Pennsylvania. Brownell says it's not a good idea to begin any diet if the weight will be regained. Honest assessments ot motivation and commitment are essential before starting a weightless program. Minority student enrollment drops College enrollments of low- and middle-income blacks and Hispanics have declined since the mid-1970s, according to a survey by the American Council on Education.

Survey says children's opinions matter Children's opinions carry weight when it comes to family decisions.

Enzyme could fight AIDS More than a vcar ago, scientists working to find a better drug to fight AIDS found a potential weapon: a crucial enzyme in the virus that does not change, as proteins on the coat of the virus itself do. Writing in this week's issue of the British journal Nature, scientists report that the enzyme, protease, can be jammed by the compounds. A dozen compounds are under study, and within the next year, one is likely to be chosen for the first tests on humans.

Twenty four men's teams will compete for top honors in this year's battle for regular-season number one posi- tioning. Ima Reck sees the pre- preseason picks as follows: 1.) Winter Heat - Greenville Utilities beware! These guys will light up the court without using a single kilowatt. Look for Terrence Bryant and crew to take the other teams to their peak of energy be- fore slamming them with high scores. 2.) Air Assault - Bojack Daven- port leads the attack. These guys can lead a defensive strike their opponents will never be able to combat. And with Colonel Bojack at the helm.no one will get out alive! 3.) Boyz in the Hood - Leon Edwards will lead his squad out of the hood and onto the wood for a slammin' jammin' basketball session. They plan to rock their opponents chassis and kill their motors before taking the number three spot. 4.) Library St. Jazz - Kenny Maltony will lead this basketball study session. There will be quiet on the opponents boards as Li- brary St. Jazz teaches a lesson in basketball prowess. 5.) 1-C-Ya - James Godwin's team will C-Ya-Luz!

The new group, North Carolini- ans for White Janitors, seeks to help whites break into blue-collar, low- prestige positions. "Our research indicates that those who hire people for blue-collar jobs are prejudiced said Sue Premacist, NCWJ's president. "They just don't believe that whites ? who, due to better opportunity, suffer from hav- ing more education and better train- ing than most non-whites ? are ca- pable of doing )obs that have been traditionally held by minorities. Minorities take all thclow-prcs- tige. menial )obs and make it impos- sible for highly trained, well-quali- fied Whites to enter the work force at (hot level, Premacist continues. "Con- M nit nth whites are forced to tike gh-paving upper- evel managemer t positions becon e partners in larg respi i ted lav firms, that kino i : ?hi ? ust not fair ? ? ime,? rth arolini- ,? ? ? r White Janitors is not trying to (pen uj onlv janitorial positions for ? hites Despite the name, we're not trying to open up onlv janitorial posi- tions for whites explained RavCyst. president of ECU Students tor VVhnc janitors I the ECU branch of the larger organization) "We want to change employers' attitvides on a wide range of jobs, to show them that whites can do them, 100. We want to see more whitesdnvinggarbage trucks, becom- ing transient laborers, washing laun- dry in hotels, etc NCWJ's campaign for the '90S is called "Give a WASP a break and will be a large-scale effort to convince employers that whitesarequalified to compete with minorities. Most of the campaign's methods are predictable and well-tried - putting up educa- tional posters wherever people are most likely to ignore them, taping public-service messages to run when nobodv's watching the television anywav, and generally blowing lots of federal money on treating the symptoms without treating the dis- ease ? but there is one fresh twist "Two words: mental condition- ing Premacist states proudly. "Since whites are handicapped er, I mean, not 'handle apped don't print that disadvantages by their better edu- cations, theobvious solution is to retro- actively de-educate them.

By Chippy Bonehead ECU Today justice was served today, as Judge Obstructa Rights found noto- rious misdemeanonst Timmy "Spaz" Cronkite guilty, guilty, guilty of all the charges against him and some that were levelled at Manuel Noriega besides.

The prosecution, stunning in its legal efficiency, proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Cronkite had never been on the ECU payroll, that the pav check stubs the defense presented as evidence were obvi- ously forgeries, and if they weren't, they certainly weren't signed by Chancellor Dick Hurhn, and besides, who reall y needs these radical leftist commie-pinko journalists running around free anyway7 Cronkite's defense attorney thought they had a key witness in Dr. Alfred DeButler, Vice Chancel- lor in Charge of Stripping Students of Every Possible Legal Right However. DeButler's testimony worked against them, as he told the court, "Have 1 ever seen that person before on campus, or at a university- sponsored off-campus event, or has he ever come to Student Fund Ac- counting to pick up a paycheck? I'm thinking no way. Uhn-uhn. Neg. Never. Nada. Non. N-O The prosecution only fumbled once, but they quickly recovered. A slight contradiction in testimony oc- curred when arresting officer Ronald Wurst told the court Cronkite had been arrested, while official police transcripts and videotapes of the jail on the night in question showed no sign of Cronkite. Judge Rights quickly stepped and saved the prosecution with the timely comment, "Obviously, Mr. Cronkite went back and Whited-Out the police log and is also a vampire and, as an undead, is not detectable bv video cameras The jury ap- plauded the judge's quick thinking and promptly went back to sleep.

' liui such as ECU - t. ? ? man, The Conformist hu lp, and the fePatch. ? lear-headed ludge Rights immediately threw thisevidenceout of court, declaring it inadmissabie ?nce such evidence could possibly hurt the prosecution s otherwise air- tight rase.

I Cronkite was taken away to the General Classroom Building to begin serving his sentence. Dr. DeButler drove off in his new W) Porsche, a car that most vice chancellors at state-supported schools find hard to purchase on their normal, unsupplemented sala- ries. Judge Rights had an excellent lunch, although the shrimp scampi disagreed with her somewhat.
