(Photo by J.D Whitmire � ECU Photo Lab) Former Senator McGovern makes plea for Middle East dialogue By Tim Hampton News Editor Former U.S. Senator and 1972 Democratic Presidential nominee George McGovern said the Middle Fast conflict is the most pressing issue facing American foreign policy, in a luncheon speech Friday on the ECU cam- pus. Mc( .overn. who unsuccess- fully ran against Richard M. Nixon in the 1972 elections, told a group of public school teachers that the U.S. must persuade Is- rael to enter in negotiations with warring Arabs and Palestinian peoples Middle Fast unrest has lasted for decades since the es- tablishment of Israel in 1948 and has accounted for many causali- ties on each side "Wecan't dictate Israeli pol- icy, but wecan dictate their terms of our aid McGovern said of the$3billion in funding,of which the majority is military support, the U.S. gives to the Jewish homeland. "We now supply Israel with aid amounting to $5,000 per capita of each Israeli citizens in perspective to the content of Africa where we give $1 per capita McGovern said adding, "that's not fair and not smart for American interest With the crumbling of the of democracy in Eastern Europe, McGovem said the most focal point of U .S. policy in the last 40 years - the Cold War - is no longer a threat to American well-being and in turn the emphasis should now be placed on the Middle East. "World War III could take place in the Middle East it we don't find some way to resolve this long fester- ing quarrel McGovern said. While he concedes it would take political maneuvering around the powerful Israel lobby, McGovern said the US. must call tor Israel to enter talks with the Palestine Libera- tion Organization(PLO). McGovern alluded to the fact that half of the Israeli public and halt of the its Jew- ish supporters in American believe a new dialogue must be established with the PLO. Also concerning the PLO, the former senator said the Bush admini- stration made a mistake by cutting diplomatic ties with the Palestinian group. Although now somewhat odd, McGovern, a staunch liberal demo- crat from Wisconsin, and former President Nixon, a conservative, see almost eve to eye on the Middle East issue. "We tend to agreeon a few things today, including the Middle East conflict McGovern said. Recalling the 1972 election in which Nixon claimed a landslide victory, McGovern said he didn't fare too well in North Carolina. "I think we managed to carry two counties in North Carolina the former Democratic nominee said. But he now takes the loss in proper perspective. "I'd much rather be in Green- ville with all of you as the loser in 1972 then to trade places with the winner McGovern said to the teachers attending The Arab World and Islam: reaching Pri- orities and Techniques a two day seminar held in conjunction with the ECU international stud- ies. In today's domestic political arena, McGovern may have had a more realistic change of winning the election then during the con- servative turn in the eariy 1970's. "American politics functions in cycles and for the last 20 years the conservatives have largely- held power in the White House. In my opinion that is about to change if not in 1992 then in 19 the esteemed liberal said. Of the up coming showdown By Elizabeth Donaghy Staff Writer Since 1989, North Carolina's universities have been experienc- ing a decline in the applicant pool, and although ECU is also feeling the effects of these cuts in appli- cants, the admissions standards will still continue to become more difficult. During the past couple of years, applicants for ECU have been facing a rise in the academic standards for admission, and this climb is predicted to continue into 1991. The basis for this stricter selec- tion is found through a projection formula used to achieve a better idea of how a student may do his or her freshman year. The factors of this formula are the student's GPA (Grade Point Average) and SAT (Scholastic Achievement Test) score. Although it is not used in the formula, class rank is also sig- nificant in the consideration of the application. For 1990, the minimum GPA for an applicant is a 2.0, and the minimum SAT score is a 700. However, a student cannot have both of these scores combined in order to be accepted to ECU. If the applicant's GPA is a 2.0, they must have a 900 minimum on their SAT in order to be accepted. Students with a 700 on their SAT must in turn have a 2.5 GPA. In addition, a fifty point rise in the minimum SAT score is being considered for 1991. These figures are based on the projection formula for the student's progress analysis. This formula helps the admissions board to estimate how a student might do his or her freshman year. Currently, this formula is being revised as a result of a validity study. Dr. Thomas E. Powell, direc- tor of admissions, feels that there will not be a decline in the number of applicants as a result ol these changes. In fact, he predicts the opposite and finds these new stan- dards to be more attractive tor ECU. "Historically, as admissions standards go up for a school, the demand for the institutions usu- ally goes up along with it said Dr. Powell. "The more selective schools have the most people trying to get into them There has been a decline in the applicant pool for all of North Carolina's state schools in recent years due to a decline in the num- ber of college-age students. This decline is the result of lower birth rates since the baby boom. Graduates from public high schools in North Carolina peaked in 1989, when it reached a high of approximately 72,000 students. This statistic is expected to con- tinuc downward until 1994, when it will reach a lo wot approximately 58,000 high school graduates. Last year alone, ECU experi- enced a decrease in applications ranging around 1,100. Dr. Powell feels that this continued decline will be the result of the fewer high school graduates only, not because of the higher standards being ap- plied. Enrollment for second session reaches all-time high, 5,000 ECU News Bureau Summer school enrollment at ECU is up by more than eight percent from a year ago and offi- cials are crediting lifestyle changes among students and expanded programs for adults for the in- crease. "We've been pushing pro- grams that accommodate the non- traditional student said James A. McGee, director of the ECU Sum- mer School. He cited evening Financial aid: the process made one step at a time By Matt King Staff Writer Financial aid to some, is as important as the curriculum itself, because you can't have one with- out the other. The most important thing to keep in mind is that you are your own best friend, and worst en- emy, in the quest for funds to supplementyoureducationalbank role. First, find out the time table. When it comes to financial aid it's between former Charlotte mayor imperative to be aware of the Harvey Gantt and three term U.S. schedule that this big machine works on. As the handbook will tell you, it is a first come, first serve system and the earlier one applies, the better. Even though there are two programs that can be tapped into year-round (The Pell Grant and Stafford Loans), one has to apply Berlin Wall and the nascent stages New Med-School clinic treats muscular dystrophy patients Senator Jesse Helms in Novem- ber, McGovern seemed to like the underdog. "Mayor Gantt has the best chance of anybody who has run against Senator Helms in a long time McGovern said adding, "it will be a classic test of the far- right conservative against the liberal democrat. All theelements of a real drama are there April 15th is the date that the American College Testing Service's (ACT) Family Financial Statement (FFS) should be received by the government. This is the first step to receiv- ing any type of financial aid, it determines one's financial eligi- bility. If thisdeadlineismisscd, don't give up, complete the FFSand send it in. There is a good chance that the Aid might not get to the cash- iers office in time to pay for fall tuition, but, in the event that a person is deemed eligible for Aid, tuition can be refunded with an award. Second, always keep in mind that the people that work in the Office of Financial Aid are there to help and they will go out of their way to do so. Anyone in the office will tell you that the worst part of their job is having to deal with students who become short with them be- classes as well as an expanded numberof coursesand workshops for school teachers as some of the programs attracting adults. "There has been a decline in the number of 18-ycar-olds in re- cent years McGee said. He said ECU is trying to make up for this decline by becoming more acces- sible to older students. "Older students have con- straints that the younger students do not have, such as full-time jobs and familv McGee says. As a result the adult student makes more sacrifices in order to attend classes. ECU has opened more oppor- tunities for older students by way of classes and study programs in the evenings, that award under- graduate and graduate degrees, McGcesaid. "Weareofferingthcse classes at times when they can come" he said. A change in lifestyle tor col- lege students is another reason tor the increases, according to McGee. He said more and more students are employed in part-time jobs to help pay for their education. As a result many of the students are taking fewer hours during the fall and spring semesters and are continuing their course work along with their jobs in the summer. I le said the students are bene- fitting from the income these jobs provide and are also finding their part-time job experiences valuable Sec Enrollment, page 3 for aid with the thought in mind s , . that something can and will go causeof their situation.

By Michelle Walker Staff Writer Muscular dystrophy patients of eastern North Carolina can now receiveevaluationand treat- ment at a new outpatient clinic at the ECU School of Medicine and Pitt County Memorial Hospital The Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation es- tablished the clinic to provide a third site for muscular dystro- phy patients living in North Carolina. The other two clinics are located at Duke University Medical Center in Durham and North Carolina Memorial Hos- pital in Chapel Hill. By granting the clinic $12,500, the Muscular Dystrophy Association has helped with the clinic's develop- ment. Services the new clinic will pro- vide range from medical evaluation to respiratory, physical and occupa- tional therapy. Patients will be able toreceiveclinicalandfollow-upcare specific to their disease, however, the clinic is now operating only one day per month. Dr. John Eisele, co:director of the clinic and a specialist in physical rehabilitation, said that this clinic is patterned after others which arc also supported by the Muscular Dystro- phy Association. "The new clinic will incorporate thorough diagnosis and evaluation for this complex disease, a strong collaborative research component, and a linkage to community agen- cies is needed Eisele said. M Old Glory Tommorrow, ECU will osberve the Fourth of July as no classes will be held. So catch up on that reading and light a few fireworks. Aid advisors work with hundreds of people a day. Third, don't get bogged down in thealphabet soup that goes with all the Financial Aid literature. There are ECUG, NCMPG, AISLG, FFS, SAR, NCS1G, NSL, and CWS just to name a few. In the midst of all of the words just remember that there is always a liaison be- tween the paper work and the person and that is the Aid advisor. If a person is eligible for a particu- lar form of Grant or Aid keeping in touch with the financial aid office will insure their chance of finding out.

Eight students from the De- partment of Construction Man- agement and from the Department of Geography and Planning were enrolled in the course to study third world building problems and to learn about the geography and cul- ture of Mexico. The group spent 11 days in central Mexico living among the Oteme people of the Mezquital Val- ley.

She explained that much of the conflict among the Arab coun- tries was created by Britain and France when the Arab countries were colonized and divided. She said this division created much of the disunity that exists today. "We want to feel we have a great civilization but we do not feel we have to develop Western attitudes to do this Maksoud said.She said Americans "need to unlearn a great deal of what has been taught Dr. Aida Ramia compared Arab society to a "well-formed pyramid" with a strong founda- tion. She said religion is the center of people's lives and also plays an important role in the political life of the countries. She said an un- derstandingof the religion (Islam) is important to understanding the people.

Instead, he said, students became more realistic. Manv whites had had only a vague idea what racism meant. With incidents of campus racism at a new high, vend think that schools seeking solutions would turn tirst to what they do best teaching. In manv cases, they are. But too manv schools, gearing up to prevent campus incidents this fall, are taking a piecemeal, Band-Aid approach. Some are flirting with curbs (ny tree speech with rules that penalize students who say offen- sive things. (The courts seem to say that such speech can be out- lawed only if directed at individu- als, not entire groups.) Other schools are emphasiz- ing counseling and special "sensi- tivity" programsdunng freshman orientation. Still others have in place race- reiations "crisis intervention teams or they're seeking more faculty and students ot color. rhe most effective programs combine allot'theso elements. And all should emphasize the schools greatest strength, teaching. Understand that campus-re- lated incidents stem tirst and fore- most from ignorance They are perpetrated by stu- dents from a generation that's grown up ignorant of the civil rights movement, who've never had affirmative action sufficiently explained, and have been taught An Ideal View There is hope for fatal illnesses By Caroline Cusick l dilorijl Columnist "W hat should 1 write about todav?" I asked mv editor, Mike Martin .is he strolled through the news room. Answering without slowing down, he said "hemo- philiacs Realizing the vaStness ol this topic, I would like to address the i-sue ot fatal illnesses m general and the cures available for them all.

The phrase "only the good die young" isoneof the most ridicu- lous 1 ve ever heard It ranks up there with absence makes the heart grow fonder" but that's another issue. In this society, we are taught to run to doctors it we get sick When we cet headaches, we take aspirin. When we catch colds, we take Contact or some other cold medicine I low many of us really know- how these drugs work? How well do we know the doctors we obey? We trust them, not for their credi- bility or moral standards, but for the degree hanging on their walls Beyond modem medical tech nology, we must also recognize the ability instilled in each human body to heal itself. This trait is only in living creaturesars in't heal themselves when they break down. Batteries can not revive themselves with rest when they become weak. People, however, have white blood cells that com- bat illness or disease within the body. I am always amazed at the complexity of the human b(Klv. Cells, too small for the unaided eye to see, diligently work to pro- tect the person of whom they are part. Most heahngcomes from this delicate life-cycle.

Thrown into an increasingly competitive college environment, few were taught how to live in an increasingly multicultural, plural- istic society. Since 1961, William Paterson College, a state school in Union, N.J has required that all under- graduates must take one of three three-credit courses: "Women's Changing Roles "Justice and Racism: The African American Experience or "Racism and Sex- ism in the United States "At first students had nega- tive expectations, they wanted to get on with their majors said Paula Rothenberg, a philosophy professor who pioneered the pro- gram. "Now we have students say it was the most valuable course they took in college. Learning about racism, the students discovered, isn't just learning theory and history. It's learning about everyday life. And that's appropriate: Many are finding out, "everyday life" is as good a definition of racism as any. COyite IMt USA TOOAYIAfpliCaUtii �AhmMM Nbfwi As the I -haul trailer, or what some refer to as a I -haul-it approached the county line, it danced with anticipation behind my chaotic driving. The flat lands of Eastern Torth arolina, laced with pine and tobacco, indiii ed a grin on one of Ms wayward sons. On that sweltering lime day like a pressure v ookerin theairconditionlessC hev wagon - the last few feet ol (ireene ount ran rough. And then the green and white sign "Entering I'm" appeared and the road turned into a smooth black ribbon As the vehicle maintained its steady 40 miles per hour, a chorus of Kb .Ms Don t Go Back To Rockville" blasted trom the shot speakers of the old A.C Delco radio. There was no turning back. Upon seeing Bs Barbecue on Highway 43, the realization hit me: back to Greenville 1 had come again. The reinitiation lacked ceremonial splendor as 1 waved to the inseparable twins whom inces- santly walk up and down 10th Street wearing their identical spectacles and stme-sized brogans. As I showed Ed and Jed mv palm, the loquacious twin looked 10 his mute sibling and asked, "Brother, who was that man with the U-haul-it?" The walking brothers; the coffee regulars at krispy-kreme; the spraying fountain in front of Wnght Auditorium; the gregarious evening crowds at Sub Station; the stolid lion before Mr. C's Night Club; and the omnipresent cashier at Stop 'N' Shop, all greeted me on mv return like 1 had never left. To borrow from an Eagles' lyric, Greenville is a place where vou can check out, but never leave. J So here this strange odyssey of living, lovingand loathing in the citv by the Tar continues. After going through long stages of denial, I have succumbed to my dcstinv and become for a time at peace with the decision to comeback after a year's absence. Old friends - some who have faced similar fate - look at me in wonderment and ask "Why did you come back?" This I have asked myself. I surrendered a sports editorship at a small town daily where the pay was not bad for a lowly journalist whose sole duty was to report on ball garni - But among the endless pee-wee baseba reports, church Softball games, and weekly bowling reviews a voice from within haunt Lost in the machinery of the real world lexpei an emotion 1 could not have fathomed graduate. 1 missed i Ireenv ille with a passion I can remember sitting hungn and dtmeless i heatlessGreenvillehousewith ratscrawlingthi the walls and piles of junk on the floor, rherel the rubble of Doritos holding a 15 pace term : with a C minus in red pen staining Us cover also remember mumbling incantations to ren mv personage from what 1 considered a god I saken city. In those days, Greenville wasn I �� personal favorite places to reside But since catapulted into a small town whu I the highest illiteracy rate in the state, into a tow n �� tl one night club - of which is only open inexplicably from Monday to Friday, into a town with no Bell, mv reverence for Greenville has taken a light. Not until one is swooned to a new environment does one come to know the beauty of yon hither Shakespearean green world where fantasy revels in abandon. On these pods and hlhes. there are but dreamlike creatures called students and liberals - a constituency which allows the now here to be. No where else has such a brew of intellects and rednecks, freaks and geeks - vou supply the rhyming stereotypes - who coexist somewhat peacefully. The diversity of its constitution and the inherentconflk I provides an entertaining setting. This is not to incite clashes among Greenvillians but rather to compliment this berg and its people tor its radicalness and progressive nature Odd is this combination, in one end but a euphoric si te and at the other hill of convergenceof ideas 1 prefer this strange integration, for in towns where abstinence, duck-pin bowling results and Jesse Helms reign king, 1 am often bored.

I think the fool should be hanged like we did Muscleean in WWII. What is more, Thompson is a true anarchist who was found to be in possession of several sticks of dynamite and according to CIA reports was'plotting to blow-up the Aspen Police Department.

Import Night Tues. 2 For Tuesday China have snowballed to change the face of communism and the Cold War. The American vision of democracy served as a catalyst to create that change, and as we cele- brate another Independence Da v. it's time we begin new initiatives for lasting peace. As the perceived threat of Communism diminishes, manv are calling for slashes in military spending. "One Percent for Peace takes that call one step further. "Defense cuts, though cer- tainly important, merely offer a scaled-down version of the global standoff we've known for loo long says Neil Schwartzbach, executive director of "One Per- cent for Peace "With a positive peace agenda, wecan helpcrcatea world where the people of all nations can work together to confront the global problems that threaten us all � problems like world hunger, inadequate housing and environ- mental destruction Part of the money raised by "One Percent for Peace" goes toward lobbying Congress for the budget allotment, and the rest fundsactual programs promoting peace in the world now. Schwartzbach says people-to- people projects like rehabilitating low income housing in Massachu- setts, replanting the rain forest in Costa Rica or sponsoring student exchange visits with the Soviet Union can create a solid founda- tion tor lasting peace. Indeed personal relationships are the key to unlocking the fear that has held the world in its grip- since one human first clubbed another For the world is not al- ways a reasonable place. It is a reflection tt human struggle that will not become gentle and fair until we touch the place in our- selves that cherishes gentleness and fairness. i o e years ago, I visited an Air Force base and met some of the men who worked in underground silos that hold nuclear missiles. If war werededared, these were the people who would turn the keys and push the launch buttons. As a rule military personnel tend to be extremely suspicious of journalists, but when I met Dave, the captain of one crew, I saw a softening in his eyes. 1 wanted to interview these people outside their work station, meet their families and talk about nuclear war and peace from a personal point of view, without a military public relations officer present. I asked Dave if he would let me interview his familv, and to the public relations officer's sur- prise, Dave agreed. When 1 stepped into Dave's home, I knew why. Dave's wife Kim was Ko- rean. The couple had two lovely children and a third on the way, and we talked about how they met when Dave was on a tour in Korea. The love between them was evident, and they shared openly about the marriage of two cul- tures. I know that Dave's openness to me, an Asian-Amencan jour- nalist, was due to his trust in his wifeand her family, the first Kore- ans he had reallv ever met. "I accept his ob said Kim. "I trv not to think about war happen- ing. All we can do is enjoy our family and love each other Ultimately, the only way to prevent war is to live a life of peace, and as we begm the 1990s, it is important to see that the more global connections are strength- ened, the harder it will be to not hu ve peace.

What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them (Matthew 21:22) l.uke, an apostle of Jesus, rec- ords an historical story about a woman who had been sick for 12 years. During those 12 years she spent all her money paying doc- tors, but none of them could cure her illness. After following behind Jesus and touching the border of his garment, she was healed. Jesus said to her, "Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace duke 8:48) Her monev and her doctors had nothing to do with her cure. Her faith in fesus brought the healing tor which she had been searching. This is one of manv accounts ot the healing ministry of Jesus. The Bible savs: "And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaehine the gospel oi the king- dom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people (Matthew 9:35) "The blind receive their sight and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have thegospel preached to them. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me (Matthew 11:5-6) Sceptics with their faith in science and penicillin have a hard time believing this. Many Chris- tians also find this hard to believe. It's easv to believe the rainbow representsa promise thatGod will never again flood the earth, but it is hard to believe the promise that we have been (in the past) healed ot our diseases (in the present I by the stripes oi lesus.

Reynolds Tobacco Co. is test- ing a cigarette in Atlanta adver- tised as "the first cigarette that smells good The Horizon cigarette was launched in May, more than a year atter Reynolds abandoned an at- tempt to market a near-smokeless cigarette called Premier. "It'sdcsigned toemita 'fresh' aroma when lit said Deidre K. Dyer, a spokeswoman for Win- ston-Salem-based Reynolds. The 100-millimeter cigarette comes in both regular and menthol ver- sions. Opinions differ widely on what Horizon's smoke actually smells like. "To me, they smell like some sortofaromatic pipe tobaccosaid Bill King, manager of W.C. King,a cigarette wholesaler in suburban Atlanta. "But I've heard other people say thev smell like vanilla . . or even flowers King isn't sure it Horizon will find a home in cigarette racks across the country. "For a brand, I guess they've been going fair he told theGnons- boro News & Record. "But it's got- ten so hard for a new brand to break in A cigarette whose smoke doesn't offend nonsmokers would be a tremendous coup for the embattled tobacco industry. That isconfirmed in Reynolds' research. which indicates a significant number of smokers would be inter- ested in a cigarette th u produces a better-5meihngsmoke, Dyersakl. Many of them desire a ciga- rette that doc -n't bother nonsmok- ers. Horizon "is a way to not of- fend those people and stili smoke a good cigarette Dyer said. Reynolds makes no health claims that Horizon's smoke is any different than that of other ciga- rettes. Horizon's secret is in cigarette paper, not tobacco. Ihe paper is treated through a special process that uses food flavorings - pri- marily vanilla and glucose � to produce the scent See Cigarette, pai;e 8 Insurance premiums to increase RALEIGH (AP) The auto insurance industry has requested an increase in rates an increase that would SCC main North Caro- lina drivers paying as much as 9.6 percent more in premiums. The N.C. Kale Bureau � which represents the insurance industry � filed the request late 1 nday afternoon, citing increases in the costs of medical care and auto repairs. If approved, the increase would allow insurance companies to collect an additional $125 mil- lion a year in premiums from North Carolina motorists, the in- surance department said. The department depicted the request asexcessive. The Newand I Htstnxrot Raleigh reported. The price rf insurance varies greatly from driver to driver and depends on factors such as driv- ing record and the type of car in- sured. But the Rate Bureau said motorists who buv minimum-lia- bility coverage and physical- damage coverage � collision and comprehensive � would face an average increase of 4.9 percent. Above those basic levels, the request would raise rates an aver- age of 9.6 percent, the insurance department said. "An increase of nearly 10 percent would have a severe impact ondnvers.es pecially those of middleincomes, many of whom buv the increased coverages said Roger Langley, a senior deputy insurance commissioner. Insurance Commissioner James Long has rejected rate in- creases each of the last three years and ordered rate reductions. The Rate Bureau has appealed those rulings,and thecasesare pending in the courts.

She i!m faces two . ounts of assault on charges that she poisoned hercurrent husband, the Rev. Dwight Moore. Although there are several important motions already pend- ing, none were called at the bnet hearing. District Attorney Warren Sparrow s,ud it now appears that the cases could take tour weeks to try because prosecutors could call as manv as 7 witnesses and the defense may call another 23. Sparrow s.ud that prosecutors need additional time to perform tests on a letter signed by Gravin Ihomas of Burlington that pur- ports to be a death-bed confession to the crimes. And Sparrow said that the trial could probably not be finished before judge William Freeman is scheduled to begin an important civil trial Aug. 27. Freeman is to preside over the trial of a lawsuit tiled by K&W Cafeterias Inc. against Piedmont Natural Gas Co. over the gas ex- plosion that destroyed the K&W on Stratford Road in Winston- Salem in January 1988. Freeman has been assigned to that case for almost a year. Freeman said Friday that he expects the K&W tnal to take as long as four weeks. He would need a break after that trial before he could start Mrs. Moore's case, Freeman said, and he has a week of vacation scheduled in October.

(AP) � A North Carolina State University swimming coach was negligent when a swim team member died of heatstroke in 1987 during a run in 86 degree weather, a deputy commissioner of the N.C. Indus- trial Commission has ruled. The state must pay $100,000 to the estate of Onno Johannes Schild, who died at age 19 eight days after collapsing on the train- ing run, DeputyCommissionerW. Joey Barnes ruled last week. In thccomplaint filed with the Industrial Commission, the Schilds' attorney described W. Donald Easterling'scoaching style as "a pattern of sadistic and 'win at any cost' behavior "I hope the university will understand something needs to be done for the swimming pro- gram � more rules and regula- tions Sua Schild of Covington, La mother of the swimmer, told The Newsand Observerof Raleigh in a telephone interview. Mrs. Schild said her son had gone on a crash diet to lose about 30 pounds because he was afraid of the coach's threats about taking away his athletic scholarship. Easterling could not be reached for comment. He has coached the N.C. State team for 20 years, and his teams have won 16 Atlantic Coast Conference cham- pionships. Elisha H. Bunting, special deputy attorney general represent- ing the university, and university counsel Becky R. French both declined to comment Friday, say- ing they had yet to discuss the ruling. But Ms. French said there had been no change in Easterling's status as coach. N.C. State's new athletics director, Todd Turner, said he knew nothing about the case. The Schilds filed the wrong- ful death claim last year, charging both Easterling and lames Rehbock, N C. State coordinator of sports medicine, with negli- gence in their duties. The ruling, issued Monday, cites negligence only on the part of Easterling. "On 11 September 1987, Donald Easterling was negligent in failing to check the heat and humidity index and in requiring Onno Schild, who Easterling knew or should have known was dehy- drated from rapid weight loss which had been ordered by Eas- terling, to run in a hot and humid environment at a much greater than normal I v accepted risk for that sport the ruling said. The state cannot be given credit for the $125351 paid to the swimmer's parents by an insur- ance policy the university has for its athletes, Barnes said. The commission hears claims of negligence filed against the state and its agencies. The commission canorderawardsofupto$100,000. The state has 15 days to appeal the ruling to the full three-member commission. Further appeals are made through the courts. A civil suit has also been filed on behalf of the Schilds in Wake County Superior Court against both Easterling and Rehbock. A native of the Netherlands who grew up in Louisiana, Onno Schild began his sophomore year at N.C. State 36 pounds heavier than he had been the previous swimming season. He had lost six or seven pounds in the first lOdaysback at school, his father, JohannesSchild, said in an earlier interview. "It was dangerous � was he losing fluid or fat?" he said. The coach, in the presence ol the team, had strongly ordered Onno Schild to lose weight, call- ing him a "fat pig" and "Pillsbury doughboy but had not given specific instructions on how to do so, the ruling said.

The foundation will hold regional workshops to dis- cuss its initiative. Counties will then have until Oct. 1 to submit a proposal to the foundation, spell- ing out their ideas for reforming and improving its human service efforts. Thefoundation will then grant 15 counties up to $20,000 each to develop specific program plans, budgets, partnership agreements and local funding commitments to support their ideas. Final pro- posals are due to the foundation on Aug. 1,1991. From those 15, as many as five participants will be selected and counties can receive as much as $1 million during the next three to five years. David Flaherty, state secretary of human resources, said the prob- lem is bringing different agencies under one umbrella to handle the problems of the poor. Also, he said, the challenge is to answer those needs and stay within fed- eral guidelines. mile segment of 1-40 from Raleigh to Wilmington cost $417 million and spanned 10 years. The total cost of the highway, which covers 418 miles in orth Carolina, was $880 million.

McEntire and co-counsels Thomas Loflin and David Tamer said that the election should not delav the trial. But they were also concerned about the new motions filed by prosecutors earlier this week. Prosecutor Janet Branch filed motions asking for access to Mrs. Moore's psychiatric records, the payment records for her attorney in a sexual-harassment lawsuit, and a letter that Mrs. Moore has said she has from Reid giving her a third of his life-insurance policy. After court, Loflin complained that prosecutors were aware of those documents for months. It is ridiculous to demand the items just a few weeks before the sched- uled court date, he said. "The state has announced that they are trying my client for her life McEntire said. "We don't expect them to have the luxury of filing new motions time and again, forcing the trial date off to some distant time" Freeman has scheduled a hearing for July 13, at which time he said he will hear all the pend- ing motions.

This hard-working, two-year-old band from Goldsboro offers awesome thrash metal combined with an ultimate, rhythmic death stomp Kurupsure has no problems sta) ine out ot the North Carolina progressive circuit, instead. the) create a new alternative for music in an over populated scene. The four-piece thrash metal attack was formed in 1987by Mover and Balliot. Hie duo met at West em Carolina University a lew years back and then Mover is a musician with 11 years of training. Finding that he had an obsession with the guitar in 1979, Meyer is basically a self-taught player. Theory courses, a few c lassical guitar lessons and observing other musicians also added to his guitar nuturing. Meyer is heavily influenced by mid70s hard rock artists like led Nugent, Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin Singing and playing guitar tor eight years, Balliot is influenced by 'the new generation' of bands that came out in the late'80s Balhot's vocal approach can be described as intense and aggressive. Yet he still has the capability of reaching melodious heights raking the advice ot Ervin, Ellis started playing the drums at 18. After only tour years, he has devel- oped a remarkable style ol playing. Ellis is "the driv- ing force" behind Kurupsure's music, progressive thrash at its highest plateau Ellis' major influences include tight players such as I ars I Inch (Metallica) and Shannon Larkin iWrathC laid America) ' polish up his sound. h'lhs took lessons in 1989, studying drum rudiments ana See Kurupsure, page 10 Slang receives attention NEW YORK (AP) � Slang may make English teachers cringe, but it hasquiteadifferenteffecton writer Paul Dickson. Dickson say s that even though slang's detractors believe it "per- verts standard English, I believe that slang enriches the language 1 le is the author of a number of books on language, the latest of which is Slang! The Topic-bv- lopn. I )ictionaryot Contemporary American Lingoes" (Pocket). Dickson defines slang as "language that thumbs its nose at conventional English, one that goes in the opposite direction. It can be brutally frank or funny he adds. According to its publisher, "Slang is the first book in half a century to define slang terms ar- ranged by subject. Among its 24 chapters are sections on sports, law, automobiles and real estate, as well as Pentagonese, bureau- crateseand political slang. Certain chapters can help "outsiders" better understand the language of such groups as teens, yuppies and "chipheads" � that is, computer people. And, even though flower children pretty much disappeared with the 1960s, the chapter on the slang of the counterculture reveals how much of this group's language - in- cluding "hang-up "hassle" and "uptight" � has survived. Of his "offbeat reference book as Dickson calls it, the author says. "It's for people who are interested in worlds around them that they're not part of.

Fox and Christopher Lloyd are "Back from the future, to the past, from the past and to the Future The film, a completion of the trilogy written by Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, is another step in time travel opening minds to the possibilities of science Although the likelihood of time travel is less than none, the actorsand actresses involved bring an unexpected authenticity to "Back to the Future 111 Fox has an easier role in the third film than in the second. In the third film Fox only plays two roles, Marty McFly of 1985 and his Irish ancestor, Seamus McFly. In the first film, he played one Marty McFly(1985). In the sequel. Fox played three Marty McFlys, Marty McFly Junior (the son of the older 1985 Marty) and Marlene McFly (the daughter of the older 1985 Marty). Adding to the confusion, this film has two Martys of 1985 simultaneously trying to escape 1955. Keeping with the family tra- dition, Lea Thompson, who has played Lorraine McFly in all three films, is also back. In the third film Thompson plays Lorraine (1985) and Maggie McFly (1885), the wi fe of Seamus McFly. The villain's name changes from Biff to Griff and back to Biff in the first two films. However, in Future III, Thomas F. Wilson por- trays the source of the Tannen family mean-streak playing Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen. The villains, consistently played by Wilson, give the audience charac- ters to hate as they cheer for the heros, Fox and Lloyd. Having multiple characters played bv a limited castol leading actors is easier to watch than it is to read about Fox, as well as the other per- formers developed each of the characters as individuals with their own voices, gestures and mannerisms. The costumes and make-up in Future III also make the time travel less confusing for the audience. The 1885 portions oi Future III were filmed about 350 miles north of Los Angeles around Sonora, California. The red dust and open space of the desert, impossible to duplicate in a stu- dio, set an authentic stage of the early town and built the founda- tion of the Main Street seen in both previous tilnis The film begins with an over lap from both Future I and 11 bring mg the audience up to date.

After making minor repairs, Marty trav- els to 1885 to save his friend.

Lloyd broke into a new facet oi his character's per- sonality by becoming the "lead- ing man" oi a heart-telt. tear-jerk- ing romance. Aside from a little harsh lan- guage, this is an excellent produc- tion fit for family audiences. The entertainment qualities of Future III carry on the tradition of the trilogy with a strong but complex plot, and the moral lessons con- veyed are commendable.

Morgan, assistant professor of family medicine at the University of Oklahoma I iealth Sciences Center. Waist-cinching belts, tight- fitting leans and tight shirt collars can cause or aggravate health problems, he says. Bv far the worst of fenders are shoes. "People buv shoes for style. not for comfort. Frequently the shoes are too narrow, have inade- quate cushioning in the soles, or are ill-fitting. This can lead to everything from tired feet, corns and calluses to serious foot prob- lems that require surgery Close-fitting garments also cause problems. "Tight clothes interfere with blood circulation to the skin. Too-tight shirt collarsand ties can interfere somewhat with blood flow to the brain. For people who already have arteriosclero- sis, which is impeded blood flow- to the brain, tight collars and ties can increase their risk of prob- lems says Morgan. Similarly, knee-high hose or tight socks can contribute todevelopment of van- cose veins, he adds. Summer or winter, people should try to protect themselves from the sun. There is no such thing asa'healthy'tan. The rays of the sun are quite damaging, as the rising incidence of skin cancer proves he says.

According to Little league commissioner, Dan Gordon, "It teaches youngsters baseball, winning, losing and sportsmanship Greenville little League has eight teams in the Tarheel league, eight teams in the North State I eague and eight teams in the minor leagues. The North State league was the first league started in Green- ville, and then the Tarheel league was added last year. Both of the loagues are charted with the na- tional program in Willamsport Pennsylvania Gordon said. "Sometimes you do have to sub- mit the charter, you got to have the constitution, a map of vour area and pay a charter fee to the national program If you charter a league vou must also have a minor league for that league. The minor league is tor all the hildren who are not picked tor the North state or Tarheel league.

The last place team from the previous vear gets the first draft pick. The Greenville Little I eague divides the players into the Tar- heel or North State League in a unusual way. "We are probably the only 1 i ttle league program that d i v ides the players from on league to another by there house num- ber said commissioner Gordon The league has a 13-player roster and a mandatory player rule, which states that it vou have less than a 15-player roster, each player must have six defensive outs and one bat. A defensive out is when you are in the field, an offensive out is when you are at bat. The league also has a substi- tution rule, which states, when you put in a substitute, the subsb- tute stays in for six defensive outs and one bat. Then you can re- insert a player from the original line up back into the game. "It used to be that the manag- ers had the discrimination to play who they wanted Gordon re- membered. "In my opinion, as much time as the managers put in they should be allowed to play who they want. "Just like we use nine to t wel ve year olds Gordon explained. "To take a nine-year-old and put him up against a twelve-year-old pitcher is kind of lop-sided. It might scare to boy so bad he might never become a ball player All boys and girls between the ages of nine and twelve who live within a six mile radius of Greenville can try out for the leagues. Each individual league cannot draw from a area with a population over a 20,000.

The All-Star manager will be the manager who finishes first in regular league play. The area tournaments will be held on the 16thof July. One of the area tournaments will be held in Havelock, with five teams, and the other will be held in Green- ville with four teams. The win- ners in each tournament will face each other in the District tourna- ment. The District tournament will be held in Havelock on the 23rd of July. In the District tour- nament, you have to lose twice before you are out. The winner of the District tournament will ad- vance to the state tournament that wil bo held in the Western part of the state on the 30th of uly. According to Gordon, "Greenville I ittle League has won the district and state tournaments on several occasions. The Green- ville Little League went to the regional tournament in South Florida in 1)70 and 1987. They have come in second place in the state tournament for the past two years Greenville Little League is a parent supported organization. Commissioner Gordon stated. "Parents are urged to help by working the concession stand, but there are problems during inner league plav because the mothers' want to watch their children play instead of working Finances come from team sponsor, parents' fees,donationsof money or equip- ment, concession stands, and the annual "Luncheon-Supper "The Luncheon-Supper" said the Commissioner, "is something that started 20 to 30yearsago. It is an annual affair to try to raise money, because it is our main source of income. We average from 2,200 to 2,800 plates that we fix in one day. This year, because of the price of chicken last year, we raised the price of tickets from three dollars to four dollars The little league players sell tickets for their one fund raiser and are rewarded with prizes for the most tickets sold. The women's auxiliary, who also handles the concession stands, fixes the plates and sends them to Film Street, where the people ride bv and pick up their plates. Gordon has been commis- sioner of the Greenville Little League for 2b years. He was the President of the Tarheel league in 11 and 12. Gordon remem- bered, "At that time there was no little league board, none of the managers had anv say so in the program. There was only a super- visor and two league presidents. "They asked me to run for President of the Tarheel league and 1 was President in 1961 and 1962 He went out of the pro- gram for four years because his sons graduated. When the pro- gram went broke, Gordons' friends asked him to help the program get back on its feet. Cordon said, "Several friends of mine came and asked me to help them out. I thought about it from two weeks before I told them I would help" Gordon has been with the program ever since. Gordon claimed, "I have tried to resign twice, but no one wants to take my job, because we didn' t have anyone who knew eve- rything to do and when to do it His main jobs arc dealing with parents, scheduling games, rec- ommending coaches and manag- ers for the Board of Directors ap- proval, and gathering prices lor equipment The commissioner said he decided to join the Little League program because he "likes to help kids He claimed that "you can never do to much to help kids stay off the streets and out of trouble and all the effort the program makes is well worth the trouble The Greenville Recreaiion and Parks Department helps by mark- ing off the fields for the games, cutting the grass and helping with the cleaning and maintenance of the fields. Gordon stated, "We do not get any tax money from the United Funds City of Greenville, although the Recreational Com- mission that is in charge of the recreational department is com- mitted to the League. They helped build the new Perkins Complex. That has two fields Over the past 25 years there have been many students and faculty from ECU who have helped with the Little League program. Most of those who have helped out have been coaches, managers or umpires. ECU's former baseball coach, George Williams, has helped the program. Dr. Jimmy Grimsly, with the Athletic Department, also has give some of his time. Pat Biz- zarre of the English Department, is a manager at this time. Gordon remembers, "Pat got upset with one of the umpires and I thought the umpire was going to kick him out of the game, but he never did. I told Pat. that was one time the umpire should have kicked him out Manv of the students at ECU J are umpires. Marion Harrington who is a student as well as an umpire declared, "It is a way to keep in touch with baseball as well as being able to teach the kids. In little league, being a coach is like being a teacher, being an umpire is like being the principal Har- rington also said, "Little league keeps vou young and you can watch the kids grow and develop as the season progresses This is the first year Harrington has helped with the little league pro- gram and hcsayshecnjovsitalot. �i -The 0�cs PWt Present MrfA PG�s. fimi&q oxon Monday, July 9 9:00 p.m. Hendrix Theatre Free admission with valid ECU I.D. card and current Activity Sticker; or a current FacultyStaff Film Pass.

Pki ss President Bush yesterday vetoed legislation that would have guaran teed workers 45 minutes of unpaid leave per century for the birth oi a child or the serious illness of a family member. Supporters oi the measure had noted that employers often fired workers who left work to attend to such matters, thereby unconstitution- ally forcing them to give up their lunch hours instead. But critics have charged that workers should expect to have to lose their jobs if they want to raise a family or support a terminally ill relative, because it was hardly responsible of them to get a job in the first place if t hey were just go i n g to ha v e to lea ve i t briefly every couple of decades to try to make another human being's life worth living, or something equally unimportant, and that, anyhow, they should be thankful that they even have lunch hours to give up. The critics' critics counter that forcing workers to give up their lunch hours leaves them distracted .md grumpy, thereby lowering produc- tivity. As Senator Christopher Ddddodddd said during debate on the Senate floor, "Who can attend to work when their tummv's rumbling?" But the critics' critics' critics insist that foresight can alleviate such mat- ters. Packing a bag lunch, they say, or bringing along some of those nifty self-contained soup cups which come in a wide variety of delicious flavors, just right for those times when you want a good, hearty, nourishing meal, but don't want the hassle, or more likely don't want your boss to start ragingandscreammgand making the veins in his head stand out like a road map while you cringe and grovel and feel desperately ashamed and angry because vou know your co-workers are secretly enjoying thisand you wish to Cod you had the strength of charac- ter to stand up to the jerk and make him treat you like a human being worthy of dignity and respect and not like some insignificant cog in the cor- ECU SNAPSHOTS out-of-context statistics that prove nothing We're Busting More Mayors! flniV vT 3 � out 3 400 200' - 11r � 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 Year poratc machine tit only tor having your much-loathed boss' pent-upscx ual frustrations and inadequacies vented on it, can solve the problem.

The critics' critics critics' critics' critics, by contrast, have entirely lost track of which side they're on. But the critics' critics' critics' crit- ics' critics' critics know which side they're on. They're on the side of the bill, and they have repeatedly blasted President Bush for his opposition to it, pointing out that he's hardly living up to his "pro-family" campaign promises. "Don't get me wrong Bush re- plied "I'm for the family. I like fami- lies I've got a family. I lookout tor m family Especially Neil, with that messed up S&L of his. I'm a big sup- porter ot families, just not when it's had tor business Other supporters of the bill showed up at a press conference last night, asking (without even raising their hands, darn them!) when Bush would be getting around to doing some good for the working families of this country.

Can't be helped City's drug war continues I'm Amalgamated Press Greenville's war against drugs continued in full force today, as the city's 34th light infantry battalion reclaimed several blocks of 5th Street from the dread drug menace Pinned down under heavy tire from marijuana cigarettes, no prog ress was made for the better part of the day. But then the 34th received help from the ROTC and the v'th armored lank corps, and together thev pushed the Mary lanes dubbed "roaches" by the brave men on the Iront lines almost all the way back to their defensive positions on tin- edges ol ECU's campus.

Plain Talkin' By Alvin Newhart ECU Today founder That Marion Barry guy what a bum. I mean, it's bad enough the guy was a druggie. But the worst part is that he went around before he got busted, lecturing to young impressionable kids, and he had the gall to appear perfectly normal when he did it! jeez, these are the same kids we've been telling for the last ten years that it they use drugs even once, even just experimenting, they'll turn into raving slavering slobbering hopelessly screwed-up maniacs, and then this Barry jerk has to go and prove you can be a regular user and still function nor- mally . Now we have to start all over! I hope he gets a hundred years, just for that. Does he have any idea how much he cost America's taxpayers in propaganda costs alone? And wait � I know I said that part was the worst part, but this is even worse than that. So forget where I said that other part was the worst part. I mean, it's still really bad, just not the worst. Second worst, tops. But this is the worst part. The worst part is that he had the nerve to say on tape that he didn't know how to smoke the crack pipe. And this is after the government's been saying that he was such a big crack user. Ethel � that's my wife � she smokes crack, and she says it that Barry guy was using it, he'd've known how to use the pipe; he couldn't forget or nothing. Like rid- ing a bike, that's what Ethel said.

Noquestion I mean, if Barry hadn't stood in the way of the Bush administration's ability to convince Jesse Jackson to take over D.C, thereby effectively neutralizing him for a few years and making it easier for Bush to get the black vote in '92, the government would still have gone after Barry with the same vigor. P. iza, 32 Tree impersonator Grifton, N.C. Actually, maybe the government should have left Barry alone unless they had someunambiguouscvidence that he was compromising his job as mayor. Then they could have gotten a fair warrant and searched his place or asked him to take a d rug test The sad thing is, this position sounds hope- lessly liberal these days. A.
