?v. that the
Spring break can be made safer with these tips
By Jennifer Ellison
Staff Writer
When planning a trip for spring
break, whether to the beach or the
mountains, then? are precautions to
take before leaving and upon ar-
ming at your destination
Harriet Clark, an employee ol
Quixote Travels in Greenville said
in a past interview to make plans,
especially before leaving the coun-
try
"Be sure to take proof of your
citizenship if you're leaving the
country she said. She advised
studentsbound for destinations out
o the country to take a passport or
an acceptable substitute a certi-
fied birth certi fica to or a voter regi s-
tration cord and a driver's license.
Clark said students heading to
the Caribbean should he prepared
tor a surprise.
"The minute they get off the
plane, students will be specially tar-
geted bv drug dealers she said.
No matter how hard the
temptation, Clark advises student
to abstain.
"Don't take them, don't bnng
mem out (of the country) and don't
use them while you're them she
said. "They are still illegal, and if
(the students) are arrested thev will
find themselves in a foreign tail
where their parents can't help
them
Other hazards lie in foreign
lands.
"Don't drink the water, "Clark
said. "But also don't eat anv raw
fruits or vegetables. Both can give
you dysentery
Students traveling in cars
should exercise caution as well.
Keep car doors locked at all
times when driving from place to
place Maxine Anderson, another
employee oi Quixote Travels, said
recently.
It thereisanotherperson nding
with you, switch drivers penodi-
callv, Anderson said.
"Do not drive until you are too
tired she said.
Many hotels at the beach dur-
ing spring break season are full
during the evenings.
"Do not wait until too late in
the evening to stop for lodging
Anderson said

Peer Health Educator
The Health Resource Room,
which offers ways to learn about
health,islocatedonthesecond floor
of the Student Health Center and is
open to all students.
Games, activities, videos and
informational pamphlets are pro-
vided for students' convenience.
Peer Health Educators are there to
helpstudents withallof their health
concerns.
Health and Wellness programs
by Peer Health Educators are given
in residence halls as well as for stu-
dent dubs and organizations, such
as fraternities and sororities.
The programs usually last
about 45 minutes to an hour, and
they are full of useful information
The programs are designed to be
open and informal with time allot-
ted for question and answers.
The Peer Health Educators are
specially trained to present these
programs in a non-threatening
manner with accurate information.
The goal is not to be judgmen-
tal, intimidation or eval uati ve.They
seek to create a comfortable atmo-
sphere between the students and
the Peer Health Educators.
Peer Health Educators assist
students in making personal be-
havior changes concerning crucial
social issues such as safe sex, safe
sunning, contraception methods
and breast and testicular cancer.
They also help raise student's
awareness about AIDS and HTV
infection.
Peer Health Educators want to
provide assistance to all students
regardlessof their age, sex or sexual
identity.
They can communicate well
with students because the Peer
Health Educators are students
themselves.
ATLANTA (AP) - A two-
pack-a-day smoker is likely to have
a heart attack 11 years earlier than a
nonsmoker, a study concludes.
In addition, smokers who quit
had their first heart attacks an av-
erage of three years later than those
who continued to smoke, said Dr.
Arthur Moss, a cardiologist at the
University of Rochester in New
York.
There was a striking inverse
relationship between amount
smoked and theageat which people
had heart attacks. Moss reported
Tuesday at the annual meeting of
the American College of Cardiol-
ogy
Nonsmokers had their first
heart attacks at a median age of 62;
two-pack-a-day smokers had their
heart attacks at a median age of 51,
Moss found.
When the numbers were cal-
culated separately for men and
women, the danger was higher for
women, Moss said.
Men who smoked a half pack
to a pack per day, for example, had
their first heart attacks at a median
age of 57, compared to 60 for non
smoking men.
Women who smoked the same
amount advanced the median age
at which they had heart attacks by
four years, from 63 in nonsmokers
to 59. Women who smoked more
than two packs a day had heart
attacks at a median age of 51, Moss
found.
Moss' findings suggest that
smoking encourages the formation
of blood clots, which can lead to
heartattacksif they block theartenes
that supply blood to the heart
muscle.
In another study reported
Tuesday, Dr. James Quillen of the
University of Iowa said smoking
tightens and shrinks coronary ar-
teries by up to 38 percent tor about

art attacks
30 minutes after each cigarette.
That constriction can contrib-
ute to a heart attack as well.
Moss said he undertook the
study to give doctors ammunition
when discussing the risks of smok-
ing with their patients.
"We haven't really made an
impact on the patients to stop
smoking he said. They don't re-
ally believe the big statistics
The study was based on an
analysis of 2,455 patients who sur-
vived a first heart attack. Informa-
tion on the patients and their
smoking habits had been collected
for earlier studies-

There are hazards to carrying
cash, Anderson said.
"Always take traveler's checks
instead of cash to prevent theft or
loss she said.
Vacationers that will be out in
the sun for long penods of time
should think while they play,
Anderson said.
"Do not stay out in the sun too
long, and do not drink an excessive
amount of alcohol before going into
the sun Anderson said.

Do students really want an annual?
Now that the Media Board has decided to
cancel this year's publication of The Buccaneer, a whole
new can of worms has been opened.
By Friday, the Media Board should know
whetheror not The Buccaneer will have to pay $50,000
for breaking its agreement with Taylor Publishing,
their contracted printer.
But this is by no means the only problem facing
the future of our yearbook.
After spring break, the Media Board will de-
termine the fate of The Buccaneer's future format,
attempt to solve the recurring staff problems and
decide what to do with the remaining $50,000 from
the yearbook's budget ? money that is allocated
from student fees.
With all the problems arising from the Media
Board'sdecision, many students are wondering who
to blame for this mess. The answer, which is difficult
to untangle, is already a moot point.
More important than finding fault with anyone
or everyone, is how to solve this problem and make
sure it doesn't happen again ? a difficult task the
Media Board has begun to tackle.
Among the suggested solutions.? far are a
yearbook videotape; a magazme-type?ffrnnat and a
smaller version of the existing yearbook.
While each of these solutions merit additional
considerations, they all overlook the one major flaw
that led to The Buccaneers demise ? student apathy.
True, there were other contributing factors that
doomed The Buccaneer, but the root of the problems
lies with the student body's unwillingness to sup-
port it
According to several Media Board officials and
former yearbook staff members, The Buccaneer has
always been plagued with problems ? both in pro-
duction and management.
Much of this can be traced to the fact that
although many students want a yearbook for them-
selves, few are ever willing to put in the time and
effort needed to help produce it.
For example, no one ? out oi over 16,000
students ? applied for any of the ad vertised yearbook
positions that will be available this fall.
Students seem to have indirectly decided on
the fate of The Buccaneer by their own lack of desire to
help produce one.
Perhaps this would account for the fact that out
of 5,000 yearbooks printed in 1990, over half were
never picked up by students Boxes of these annuals
now sit collecting dust in The Buccaneer office.
In other words, by their unwillingness to help
produce the yearbook, students ha ve brought thison
themselves ? perhaps forever.
However, the Media Board has not yet decided
the future of The Buccaneer.
Perhaps if students express their desire to
continue having some form of a yearbook, the Media
Board will look into other alternatives.
The best solution forfuture yearbooks, no matter
what their form, lies in the possibility of seeking an
outside source to produce them.
This would probably require additional
spending by the Media Board. But if students are
really interested in having yearbooks, they should be
willing to pay a little extra in their fees.
Hiringan independent contractor would ensure
that future yearbooks would be something worth
remembering: professional, timely and properly
done.

New treasurer
responds to
media chair
To The Editor:
I would like to comment
on the letter to the editor by
Fran Frazier, Media Board
Chairperson. First of all, I would
like to congratulate you as new
chairperson but also I would
like to tell you, don't let all of
this new found attention go to
your head.
Being chosen by the board
to run the meeting is a respon-
sibility, but doesn't make you
an instant authority on every-
thing happening on this cam-
pus (i?. Student Government
and the Treasurer situation.) It
would have been hist as easy to
show some "integrity, prov-
ing you are capable of acting as a
responsible leader, by find ing ou t
the facts behind a situation be-
fore you make a premature re-
mark. After all Fran, it's a com-
mon fact that not everything you
see in a newspaper is the exact
truth nor may it be in the exact
context which certain comments
were presented, (i.e. the quote
from SGA President Allen Tho-
mas concerning "rocking the
boat" and wha?s best for our
campus in this situation)
Please Fran, don't "preach"
about what you would do in a
situation unless you've been
there. You have enough to worry
about with WZMB being off the
air the entire year and the year-
book going belly up than to get
involved with Allen Thomas a nd
Student Government Take care
of your own problems, find out
the facts and then you can say
whatever you like. And, if you
are still interested, elections
for SGA President are April 3.
Get elected, and then you can
show everyone how big a dif-
ference you would make.
I hope this doesn't of-
fend you. A little constructive
criticism that is well founded
has never hurt anyone. We
have heard enough about ev-
ery little negative The East
Carolinian can sensationalize
concerning Student Govern-
ment.It'sa shame the students
are missing out on all of the
positive SGA has accom-
plished for our campus this
year. There is no reason why
we all can't learn from mis
and not be a part of the prob-
lem but be a part of the solu-

Vietnam, Gulf wars teach valuable lesson
By Bill Egbert
Editorial Columnist
This war must have sur-
pnsed a lot of peace activists.
It wasn't supposed to go this
way.
We were supposed to be-
come embroiled in a prolonged
ground war. The world was sup-
posed to turn against us. The Ira-
qis were supposed to fight fanati-
cally for their homeland. The body
bags were supposed to come roll-
ing in, exposing falsified govern-
ment body counts.
This war was supposed to
turn into another Vietnam. It was
supposed to drive home the les-
sons of that 10,000-day seminar
on the futility of war.
But instead, we won ? and
we won big.
Our casualties were one-
sixth of the Pentagon's lowest pre-
dictions. The Iraqis surrendered
by the battalion, kissing our hands.
The nationsof the world are lining
up to have their pictures taken
with us. We one-upped the Israe-
lis with a 100-hour war.
We're getting everything we
wanted, and we didn t have to
give an inch. This war did exactly
what wars are supposed to do: it
eliminated the need for compro-
mise in a situation where compro-
mise was unacceptable.
Far from being a final, so-
bering slap in the face, the Gulf
War showed us that war some-
times works.
This war went so damn well,
in fact, I'm surprised we aren't all
settling back in our armchairsand
echoing Patton, shouting for more.
There'sa lot of unfinished business
in this world.
As long as we're in the re-
gion, we might as well hang a left
and drive the Syrians and the Is-
raelis out of Lebanon. After that.
we could kick the Israelis out of
the West Bank and establish the
Republic of Palestine.
And after we've established
the Pax Americana in the Middle
East, why don't we send our troops
on a grand tour? We could head
north into the USSR and liberate
Georgia and Azerbaidzhan. then
go up and kick the Red Army out
of the Baltics.
After that, we could air-lift
our troops back over the Atlantic
and parachute them down into
Colombia to have a word with the
Medellin drug cartel. Then wed
loadafewM-1 A-lsonto the Rain-
bow Warrior, steam into Rio de
Janeiro, and put a stop to this de-
forestation business once and for
all.
At this point, our troops
would split up. Operation Veldt
Storm would rein-in South Africa
(that other world-famous outlaw
nation). We'd carpet bomb the
Security Police,establish one-man-
one-vote, and kick their white
butts out of Namibia once and for
all. And while we're on the conti-
nent, we might as well send a
couple of Apaches up the coast to
restore order in Liberia.
The other half of our troops
would occupy Shanghai and es-
tablish a student newspaper Our
B-52s could fly over every rice
patty in China, throwing copies
out the back doors. We'd show-
Deng Xiaoping just wha t the Paper
Tiger can do unleashed into the
hands of dissidents.
Then the American Eagle
would fly back home and perch
on the UN to preen its feathers.

Anglo-Saxon control must be stopped
By Darek McCullers
Editorial Columnist
History has shown that the
Anglo-Saxon has been the greatest
practicioner of oppression, dis-
crimination and exploitation in the
history of humankind. Often
times, this has been done under
the guise of morality. They have
used such mottos and catch
phrases as "God, Gold and Glory"
Manifest Destiny, Democratiza-
tion, Integration and Assimilation.
This trek of exploitation and
domination began with the Age of
Exploration. Some historians
contend that this started in 1492
with the famous voyage of Co-
lumbus. The Anglo-Saxons ex-
plored and developed theories of
domination for North and South
America.
There were a number of fa-
mous "conquerors such as
Cortez, De Gamma, Amerigo
Vespucci and others. The Anglo-
Saxons greatly benefitted from mis
period. They acquired land, gold
and other commodities of value
and interest.
Around thissame period, the
Anglo-Saxons began to explore or
see what they could take from
Africa. By 1434, they were placing
forts along its coastline. Within 70
years, they had penetrated into
the Congo River area in the interior
of commodities which were grain,
gold, ivory and manpower
(slaves).
Until 1650, the Portuguese
were the principal exploiters, but
they were soon to be challenged
by the French, English and the
Dutch. When competition reached
a point where it threatened Anglo-
Saxon unity, they held a confer-
ence in Berlin. The Berlin Confer-
ence of 1884 divided Africa with
the use of a map. They disregarded
existing indigenous tribal struc-
tures. This ensured the final split
and disunion of Africans and
made them slaves to Western
powers. Before the Age of Impe-
rialism was finished, 9.4 million
slaves had been deported from
their native land?800,000of these
came from the United States.
By the early 1800s the prac-
tice of slavery has been ended in
most of the civilized world, except
America. Tensions increased be-
tween the North and the South
during this period and the Civil
War was started in the early 1860s.
I would postulate that some
Anglo-Saxons in America were
truly morally opposed to the
domination and exploitation of
black people. However, they was
few and far between.
The larger issues were and
will always be economic. The
Northerners saw that ending sla-
very would be an opportunity to
industrialize and diversify the
South, thereby increasing the
economic status of the whole
United States. They had no prob-
lem with allowing blacks the
TTKHJest,gains which would be due
to industrialization but they never
intended to change the real power
structure that had existed
It appears that the Anglo-
Saxon in America also had a po-
litical agenda, at least those who
belonged to the Republican Partv
Before the Civil War, the demo-
crats were in control. Upon the
ending of slavery, the radical
reconstructionalists saw the op-
portunity to gain a large power
base.
They proceeded to give
blacks the right to vote and started
programs such as the Freedmans
Bureau. At the same rime, they
were trying to rebuild the South
However, when the Anglo-Savons
of the South got back on their feet
they rested political control via
the Democratic Party and ended
Reconstruction.
Today, the republicans have
wrested control from the demo-
crats along economic issues which
happen to be intertwined with
race. They talk about such things
as quotas, preferential treatment
and reserve discrimination.
One white writer recently
talked about the ills of so-called
reserve discrimination, and it an-
gered him. I admit that other
people have been oppressed
However, people of color are the
only ones I know that have been
exploited, humiliated and domi-
nated for nearly half a nruUmium

The problems that Afncan-

economic and socio-political con-
trol. Slavery per se has ended.
Segregation per se has ended.
However, Anglo-Saxons still

There are white people who

working for the Buccaneer. This is
a scary thought. Out of 16,000 stu-
dents, not ONE felt compelled to
even apply
The indifference and lack of
support by the student body is
saddening and 1 think it's a real
shame to see a 67-year tradition at
this school broken.
Sincerely,
Mary Beth Morde

as quotas preferential treatment
and reserve discrimination.
One white writer recently
talked about the ills of so-called
reserve discrimination, and it an-
gered him. I admit that othei
people have been oppressed
However, people of color are th
only ones 1 know that have beer
exploited, humiliated and domV
nated for nearly half a milling
See Anglo-Saxon, page 5
Might does not necessar-
ily make right, but right without
sufficient might must bow to any
mighty wrong.
That is the lesson of this
war V etit is not a contradiction of
the lessons oi Vietnam. In fact,
thev are complimentary
We should be impressed
bv the might we were able to exert
to enforce the SecurirjounciTs
resolutions More than impressed
we should be in awe
I'm not talking aboi t the
starrv eyed amazement we feel at
Epcot Center. We should Iv feel
ingOld Testament, Jerico, Pillar ot
Fireazi'e ? the kind of awe we felt
at the end of World War II, after
we turned two cities into radioac-
tive clouds
We leveled a nation in a
Anglo-Saxon
month and a half. We crushed the
fourth largest arm in the world
We did it with tones out num
bered two-to-one These feats
should not make us puff out i.ir
chests, rhej should make us stare
blankb for a moment it thegun in
our hand.
This war should make us
respect the power we have mk
slow to bring it to beai again
World War II was followed
1' the American Decade, when
ever) nation in the i Id (with
the exception of the S ut Woe)
regarded America as the greatest
power on Earth The result of this
phenomenon was tin nnle-crum
nate hubris which led to V ietnam
The lessons of that war will help
us keep such a tragedy from re-
sulting this time.
The Vietnam War was not a
warning against the use ot our
might, but rather a reminder to
use it judiciously and decisively.
TheGulfWarwasa reminder
that we have that might and that
wecan use it effectively when there
is an acceptable reason to do so
Both of these lessonsare m i w
part of our national mythology.
They will influence our foreign
policy, our voting habits and the
way we raise our children for as
long as America is a nation
Both lessons were necessary
tur our national education, and
Uth lessons should be remem-
bered. We cannot allow either of
them to overshadow the other.
They provide the philosophical
balance necessary for the manage-
ment of awesome national power

(500 vears).
The problems that African
Americans face today are ones of
economic and socio-political con-
trol Slavery per se has ended
Segregation per se has ended.
However, Anglo-Saxons still
maintain control over black
people I submit to you that inte-
gration was a means of control.
There are white people who
would rather allow you the
privilege to sit down in a restaurant
for a cup of coffee, ride the same
bus, stay in the same hotel and
attend the same school than to
allow you to unify and amass
economic and political selMe
termination.
The Anglo-Saxon used two
principals methods to maintain
control over black American dur-
ing and after the Civil Rights era
First of all, there was infiltration 1
have been reading the book,
"Bearing the Cross which is
! about Dr. King and the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference.
This is the prime example of the
method of infiltration
A man named Stanley
Levinson approached and be-
friended Dr. King, often ng his
assistance. Levinson got 1 r King's
trust so much so that King gave
him the leverage to make inser-
tions or deletions in his speeches.
A prime example of his inten en-
tion was when he got Dr. King to
leave out a section admonishing
blacks to responsibility and self-
reliance. Instead, he focused on
what blacks should ask the gov-
ernment to do.
I contend that we shouldn't
ask them to do anything We can
handleour own problems without
white intervention This critical
intervention was responsible for
starting what I call the rhetoric of
victimization.
We have come to depend on
the government to improve this
situation instead of our own unity,
self-determination, and strength.
It is through infiltration that the
Anglo-Saxon has been able to con
trol the black liberation movement
Holly Farms
Breast
Quarters
However, in the future we
will make our own strategies for
progression. We will not moralize
a problem that is economic and
political (other than perhaps as a
source of unity and strength) 1
think that you will find the masses
will begin to say that we don't
want your quotas, programs de-
signed to keep us eternally de-
pendent, or crumbs from your
table. What we seek now is power
for our masses.
We will pool together and
create our own industries so that
all our people can enjoy the fruits
of our labor (not a token few). We
will educate our own children (to
be free from brainwashing and to
understand the greatness that be-
longs to Africa and African
Americans).
Finally, we will worship our
God, the father of Abraham, Isaac,
and Jacob (not Beliah, the God of
deception from which you draw
the power to be religious hypo-
crites). Anglo-Saxon control of
black people must end!

be "stuck up" or uninterested. In-
telligence, moral values and per-

features she said she would look
for.
As for basic looks, Hu said a
man would need to be physically
appealing to her to consider ro-
mance "Looks aren't everything,
she said, "but they do determine
initial attraction and whether you'll

Furthermore, Hu said she
thinks it is fine for women to ask
men for a date (women, take special

Hu advised men not to ask a

"You do learn from things
along the way. One thing you learn
is to really enjoy the life that you
have, because there is a lot more to
enjoy than you might have thought
when you were younger
These are the words
Gwendolyn Brooks. She said these
words in the context of a normal
conversation, not a speech or a ser-
mon. She was simply offering her
view on the enjoyment of life.
"Do you ever stop and just
look at the trees? The sunset?' she
continued. "Because you think
you're going to have those things
forever. And then someday when
you've got nothing else to do, you'll
sit around and look.
"1 think young people waste
a lot of time wondering 'What's it
all about7' It'sabouf what you see"
Gwendolyn Brooks is con-
sidered by most literary critics to be
one of the most profound and pro-
lific poets writing today. She has
been awarded numerous awards
for her works including the first
Pulitzer Prize received by a black
author. She recently gave a poety
reading at ECU and beforehand
granted an interview.
Due to her many merits. It is
easy o understand why someone
might be nonplussed at the idea of
interviewing her.
Brooks found this notion to
be frivolous.
"Oh for goodness sake she
said, "You know, I don't know what
to say when people say things like
that. I am so accessible. I mean I am
so easy to reach
Brooks spoke about many
subjects, and as the interview went
on, it was evident that she is an
extremely intelligent and wise
woman.
She began by saying that she
would most like to be remembered
for "writing poetry that told the
truth
"I believe there's no point in
lifting up pen to paper unless you
are going to write your truth on that
page she continued, "Sometimes
that can be very hard to do ? to tell
the absolute truth and to know it. So
many poets are afraid of hurting
others ? which is legitimate but
not to be catered to
On that same note Brooks
commented on her poem entitled
"The Mother which she read dur-
ing her poetry reading. The poem
deals with abortion and its effects.
The opening lines read, "Abortions
will not let you forget. You re-
member the children you got that
you did not get, The damp small
pulps with little or no hair, The
singers and workers that never
handled the air
After the reading, she told
the audience that she would be glad
to reveal her position on the abortion
issuein a personal format. However,
she said that she felt no need to
alienate half of the group by telling
her position in public.
She said refenng to the poem,
"People on both sides of that con-
troversy have asked me to let them
use it for a standard bearer ?

Usually when a comic title cot s cancelled its due to
poor sales, but in l"he Now Mutants case, its just a way
? starting a new beginning. After five vearsof monthly
nstallments, The New Mutants number 100 marks the
end of their run. but thev txgin a new series that starts
in lune 11, titled X-Force.
When The New Mutants were Started by Chns
Clammont.themasterofMarvelComicsmut.intlxxiks,
is supposed to be a Hghthearted. tun book. It
.ui,klvevolvt1intoagnmkxkafthepreudiceagainst
a specific race
The mutants that live in the Marvel I Iniversecame
against oppression and scrutiny in the past few years,
aiistartedbvChnsClaremont Mutantsbecamehunted
down and killed in cold blood due to the fact that they
were bom with superior genes The New Mutants
became one of the flagship titles for this message,
through the Mutant Massacre through the Fall of the
Mutants, through the Inferno series and most recently
through theX-tinction Agenda storv lines that centered
on the oppression of Mutants
Atter sixty or so. issues, Chns Claremont quit
scripting the adventures of the teenage mutants and
Louise Simonson stepped in as the new writer. She
ntnuH-d with the pre,ud.ce Story lines but used a less
harsh view of it.
With the art by Bret Blevins, a very chancature
artist, the look of the book turned into a kiddie book
withextrerrissuesaddressed.Thenavoungsternarned
Rob Liefeld stepped in as the new artist and brought
with him a new dynamic look and a freshness of ideas
thatcamefromLouiseSimonson.Togethertheycreated
the character Cable, which is now the mainstay of the
book and the team. Simonson relinquished her writing
duties to the very capable Rob Liefeld and Fabian
Nicieaza.
Since thev took over the exploits of the mutants,
they havereshaped theappearanceanddirectionof the
book. Thev have introduced several intriguing char-
acters, such as Dead pool (issue 98), Gideon (issue 98).
Domino tissue 98), Feral (issue99),Shatterstar(issue 99
& 100), and Warpath (issue 99, though he was ongi-
nally introduced many years earlier asThunderbird ID.
Each of these characters promise to play a large role
in oncoming days of X-Force. The new team consists of
Warpath,Shatterstar, Domino, Feral,Cable, Boom Boom
and Cannonball and they ha ve banned together to fight
for their rights and their freedoms.
Each member has their reasons for joining Cable's
cause, some more involved than others. Cannonball
and Boom Boom just want to do some good in this
world. Warpath wants revenge on the Hellfire Club, a
group of mutants that am on the other side of the law
that killed everyone on his Indian Reservation He has
made a pact with Cable to fight his war if the team will
help him fight the Hellfire Club. Similar to Warpath's
reasons, Feral joined as a way of protection against her
former friends, the Morlocks.
TheMorlocksareagroupofmutantsthathidinthe
subway tunnels of New York to hide from the surface
world. Of late, though, they have fallen under the
power of the one called Masque. Masque wants to take
over the surface world and kill anyone that stands in
her way. Feral stood in her way and escaped to the
protection of Cable and his army. Her war will be
fought by X-Force in exchange for her fighting their
wars.
Shatterstar is in allegiance with X-Force so that he
can build a defense against attackers from another
deminsion. X-Force will battleShatterstar'sattackersin
exchange for his help in fighting to preserve the rights
of mutants. Cable and Domino's reasons for this war
and their parts in it are still unclear as is their previous
relationship.
The intrigue built around the characters and their
backgrounds as well as the war that they are fighting is
the center of the group's attraction. They work well
together though they don't know each other well, and
are willing to lay their lives on the line for people they
barely know. The alliance is interestingand promises to
be action filled.
Liefeld'splotsandNicieza'sscriptingmakeagood
team and a good direction for the comic. The New
Mu tants werebrought back into the higher salesbracket
with the addition of Liefeld, but with the acquisition of
Nicieza, it has become a major seller.
Liefeld adds a new deminsion to the look of The
New Mu tants with his thin lines and details. Heemerged
in a period that was dominated by Todd McFariane
clones and at first people thought him just another one
in the pot, but he has come into hisown in a big way. He
relies on realism more than most artists in the medium
and has a fresh layout to his work.
His creations don't have the processed look that so
many new characters seem to incorporate. Though his
ideas aren't legitimately new, his handling of them is,
and this shows in his work.

About her age of 73, she
said, "I'm glad to have reached the

Golf team looks for
good spring season
By Kerry Nester
Assistant Sports Editor
After participating in four en-
couraging fall tournaments, the
ECU golf team feels very positive
abou t their chances of having a suc-
cessful spring season and advanc-
ing to the NCAA Championships.
The team consists of seniors:
Jimmy Manos (Ashland, Ohio),
Simon Moye(Greenville), Jeff Craig
(Pinehurst), lohn McGinnis
I Durham), Greg Powell (Whiteville)
and Francis Vaughn (Hershev, Pa.).
Also on the roster is junior Mike
Teague of Charlotte and sopho-
more Rvan Pema from Boca Raton,
Ha.
With the six seniors returning
to the squad, head coach Hal
Morrison feels it's the most poten-
tial that a Pirate team has ever had
since he has been at ECU.
"With the experience of the six
seniors, we should achieve a higher
level of competitiveness Morrison
said
Morrison is a long time coach
incollegiategolt, having coached at
Baptist College and EastTertncss t
State before coming to ECU
Dunng his v ears ot exponent
Morrison has coached the likes ot
professional golf stars Bob!
Wad kins, J.C Snead and Mik
Hulbert.
The goals that the team has set
tor themselves are simple. Win tht
Colonial Athletic Association con
ference title and advance to the
NCAA Championships.
Move said, "With the leader-
ship and the ability or the goiters we
have this year, we should bring the
conference title home
"I'm expecting that we'll have
the best team ECU has ever had
Manos said.

News & Observer stated that senior

players to watch in North Carolina

and not master them, but that long
putter he used to wi n there is here to
stay.
And while most of us will ap-
plaud (and throw open our wallets
for) anything that makes the dam-
nable game a little bit easier, the
news is not good on all fronts.
Metal woods, graphite shafts,

balls with dimple patterns less
comprehensible than the structure

of error in every facet of golf ?
except for putting.
And now, the game's last little
sanctuary, wheredisaster could still
be measured in inches, is about to
disappear as well.

ing an ttty-bitty putt at the Masters

Actually, the fact that it s a
popular club is not an issue. The
issues governing the long putters
are the same that they have always
been for all tvpes or equipment,
John Mathenv, director oi opera-
tions for U.S.G.A said in a tele-
phone interview Tuesday.
"First, is it golf as we know it

does it provide some advantage to
a player that is otherwise not

the long putter in 1989, when it
becamea fixtureon the Senior Tour,
and our committee decided it was

said in an interview Tuesday, "thai

Long putters stand between 44
inches and 52 inches high when
sold, and are grasped with the left
hand at chest height and the nght at
about waist level. On the stroke, the
left hand is held stationary and the
right glides the club through in a
motion similar to the way a broom
is used to sweep.
While their effectiveness from
10 feet and beyond is still open to
debate, the putters have been
proven to work exceptionally well
from that distance inby minimizing
hand, wrist and body motion (the
major cause of "yips") and maxi-
mizing the fixed baseand pendulum
swing that gets the ball rolling
smoothly on its way to the hole.
The club also provides an ad-
ditional visual aid by allowing the
user to study the line of the putt
longerwhile standing erect.
