Recent violence, including gunfire during a melee outside a downtown nightclub, won't be tolerated in this collegecommunity,Town Manager Calvin Horton says. "It's outrageous behavior and we've got to find a way to stop it Horton said Tuesday. Chapel Hill police said asmany as 800 people were involved in a brawl on Franklin Street around 3 a.m. Tuesday after many of the people had attended "DJ Dance Night" at Cat's Cradle. 'It was an absolute mess said police Capt. Ralph Pendergraph. There were fights everywhere Two people reported they were shot at and two others were as- saulted and treated for cuts and bruises at University of North Carolina Hospitals. "A number of them were in- volved in fights Pendergraphsaid. "It got so out of control that one of the businesses ? Hardee's ? was forced to close Just before 3 a.m Willis Alston said he was attacked in a parking lot. Police found a puddle of blood in an alley near the Caf s Cradle, then found Alston lyingnearby. He had been beaten and kicked in the head. He was taken to UNC Hos- pitals, where he was treated and released. About the same time, police were called to the same emergency room, where a Raleigh man was receiving stitches in the head after beingattacked near theCat'sCradle by five men. Robert Bynum Jr 21, had been walking to his car when the men pushed him down some stairs and began to hit and kick him. About 3 a.m Clare Pennix, 19, of Chapel Hill, said she was driving from the parking lot at Tarheel Textbooks when a Honda with four or five men inside blocked her way. A passenger in the Honda pulled a shotgun and fired at her car at close range. No one was injured, but damage to the car was estimated at $1,200. Craig D. Jones, 17, of Pittsboro, reported that someone had shot at him with a shotgun as he sat in a car in the Hardee's parking lot. He was 11 ivtpis MaII PRodlCTioN CoMMJTTEE r Electric Youth Teraza Walston, an area youth from Farmville, will represent Pitt and Greene Electric Membership Corporation in Washington, D.C with North Carolina"s Rural Electric Tour.

The car received $700 damage, and another parked car also was hit. "There was no indication that anyone knew the people doing the shooting Pendergraph said. Police have not made any arrests, but Pendergraphsaid he wasconhdent there would be some made. Authorities said they weren't sure what spurred the free-for-all. "There seems to be no dis- cernible reason for either the shootings or the assaults Pendergraph said.

Derrick Chrome Noell, in the parking lot of University Spare. Noell then shot and killed himself. After Apple Chill Street Fair in April, police were called in to monitor a large gathenng of young people in the downtown area. Sev- eral assaults were reported. One man was taken to UNC Hospitals for treatment of severe head injuries. Lawsuit when the tapes were requested, Bumissaid thathe had thrown some tapesaway and that requested tapes were probably among them. In ad- dition, he said that his copy of the transcriptions of those tapes were also missing. During the auditors' inter- views, they were told that DePuy, Burrus, Midget teand Robersonheld a meeting during the first week of November I'WO. According to the report, DePuy said that the reason for the meeting was for them to get their "ducks in a row According to the report, Roberson said that as a result of the meeting, he felt that he would not be used as a scapegoat. However, he was the only employee involved Continued from page 1 in the wiretapping formally disci- plined for his actions. Depuy also said that Richard Brown, the Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs, wasalsoinformed of the taping, and approved further investigation of Mills. The auditor's report also men- tioned that the Director of Human Resources, Richard Ferns was also involved or had knowledge con- cerning the wiretapping. Gaskins said that after deposi- tions from Roberson and Midgette aRnaken,additurul defendants will be added to the lawsuit. ? ? ? 1 THEATRE CU STldtNT ID IION FilMS COMMJTTEE STUDENT UNION NEWMAN Catholic Student Center Would like to Welcome The Summer Students and Invite You to Join Us In Worship Campus Massr Schedule Summer Sessions May 19-JuIy 28 Sundav: 11:30am and 8:30pm at the Newman Center Weekdays: 8:00am at the Newman center Wednesdays: 8:00am and 5:30pm For More information about these and other programs, call or visit the Center daily between 8:30am and 11:00pm 953 East 10th St. (At the Foot of College Hill) 757-0376757-1991 Fr.

When com- pleted, the center will boast racquetball courts, basketball courts, indoor and out- door swimming pools, locker rooms and a lounge. Planners, which include Vice Chancel- lor of Student Life Dr. Alfred Matthews and Student Government Association President Alex Martin, have not decided upon a loca- tion for the building. Two locations are con- sidered: near Minges Coliseum and near Mendenhall Student Center. The idea of the center, although seem- ingly well-intended, is fallacious. The cost will be covered in part by a $20 increase in student fees. Students who will never see the building's construction will pay for it. Students who will never see the completed building will pay for it's construction. Stu- dents who will never use the building's facilities will pay as well. Forty dollars ? two semesters of the charge ? is not much to some people. But for students, $40 can buy a month's worth of groceries, a share of a power bill or part of a semester's book fees. That $40 can even pay for more than half of a $70 parking sticker for 1991-92. That the most likely sites for the center are either Mendenhall or Minges is ridicu- lous. There is no room for another building in the Mendenhall area, unless administra- tors plan to build the center on top of park- ing lots ? which would worsen the already sour situation of parking on campus. The building won't fit near Mendenhall. The other most likely site?near Minges ? would only improve the "country club" the University has built for athletes in the Minges area. Of course, building the center at Minges would be a nice selling point in recruiting athletes. "After practice is over recruiters could say, "you can take a dip in the outdoor pool. If it's raining, you can swim inside, or lounge in the lounge Most of the facilities planned for the new center are already in Minges and the Sports Medicine Building. If administrators feel there is not enough recreational space available for students in Minges, perhaps they should open the weight room in the Sports Medicine Building to all students. Granted, there is a need for more rac- quetball courts on campus, but for $18 mil- lion, are they worth it? We think not. To $e? wHat Letters To The Editor Abortion column loses point in argument On June 19 The East Carolin- ian printed an editorial written by editorial columnist John Carter. Throughout the column Carter argued that abortion is an act of murder. However, in the second to last paragraph Carter weakened his argument by stating that abortion is not murderous if a woman has been a victim of rape or incest. If abortion is murder, (as Carter insists) isn't any abortion considered murder? Murder is murder; so what is the difference if a rape has been committed or a birth control de- vise fails? An innocent child is still being killed. Although I disagree with most arguments made by anti- abortionists, the argument that an abortion is murder in some cases, but not in others is the ultimate paradox. Leslie Liedel Graduate Student History Writer should notice the other side There was an article in the June 19 issue of The East Carolinian that I thought was written in a very poor judgement. It concerned promoting abstinence instead of abortion written by John Carter. Mr. Carter's opinions were very narrow-minded. Tell him to wake up ? this is the '90s! I do have my own personal reasons to disagree with this ar- ticle. I had an abortion almost a year ago and I will tell Mr. Carter that I paid for my own abortion, his tax dollars DID NOT! I will also tell him that until then I too didn't approve of abortion but I had to change my mind and con- sider all my options since I was still in school. It wan a very painful decision and to this day I wonder how my life would be had I car- ried my baby to term. I'll never know but I will always wonder. Mr. Carter, you cannot say that you do not approve of abor- tion wholeheartedly. You won't know what you believe until you are caught in that situation! Name withheld by request No change in pay rate for grad students On Wednesday, 19 June 1991, The East Carolinian reported that "Graduate assistants in the department sic of English will receive a cut in pay while the work load will remain the same While there are some problems with the new payroll policies for graduate assistants, let me assure you that the English Department is paying students virtually the same amount per duty for the 1991 - 1992 year as we paid for the 1990- 1991 year. Dr. C. W. Sullivan Director Graduate Studies in English The Other Side Rapists deserve death penalty By John Carter Editorial Columnist Did you ever stop to think about rape? It could happen to you. It could happen to your best friend, your sister, or your girl- friend. Once it happens, it is too late to prevent it. The victim can- not erase the dreadful memories and suffers for the rest of their life while the culprit is sentenced to only a few years, if any at all. One out of four women will be raped. Look around. Who will it be? In 1989, ECU had four re- ported rapes or attempted rapes. According to the 1989 North Caro- lina Uniform Crime Report, North Carolina-run u ni versi ties reported nine rapes. These statistics are the most recent and do not distinguish between rapes occurring more here or if they are reported more here. I hope the latter is true. There is absolutely nothing that law en- forcement officials can do about a rape that is not reported. If it hap- pens to you, call someone. If you feel that voucannotdiscussit with J Public Safety or the police depart- ment, call the Real Crisis Center. They know what you are going through and they have the ability to help. That is why they are vol- unteers. In the past, it has been diffi- cult to convict accuse rapists. Our legal system has finally come to its senses. Juries are realizing the se- riousness of this violent crime and are returning more and more guilty verdicts. This cannot hap- pen if it is not reported. Ladies, I wish I could say that if you are raped, it is your own fault. Then I could tell you what vou did wrong. Eventually, women would quit doing these things and rape disappear. It is not your fault. It is the fault of a sick mind that desires to commit violent acts towards females. Pro- voca rive dress isn't the cause. Eld- erly women are raped in nursing homes frequently. Beauty is not a reason for rape. Walking alone at night in a poorly lit area does cause it. The rapist is there and wants a victim ? someone in the wrong place at the wrong time. The rapist sees a victim and he can do whatever he wants. According to ECU public safety official Ron Avery, the best thing you can do to prevent be- coming a victim is to take precau- tions. He said not to walk alone in the darkand to use common sense. If you do not believe in tal punishment, then you rru) agree with what I am about to sav Rape is a worse crime than mur- der, yet, wesentence murderer death and release rapists. Theoniv way to stop crimes is to make the punishment severe enough to re- move the person's desire to com- mit that enme. Most states allow the death penalty for people con- victed of first degree murder North Carolina has a tendem ?? ? not execute the people it has - death row, and North Carolina has a high murder rate Florida executes people quite often Florida has a low murder rate Punishment works when it is ac- tually applied. Rape affects the victim for the rest of her life. Psycholcj cally, it is devastating. She ma never again trust or feel relaxed around men. The memories ne er go awav. For a murder victim, it is over. There is no more mental tor ment for the actual victim. So, it rape is so much worse on the vic- tim, why not make rapists suh)i:t to the death penalty? Death is the ultimate deterrent. At least if you execute a rap- ist, he will never rape another per son. Maxwell's Silver Hammer Federal government policies blow smoke By Scott Maxwell Editorial Columnist I know, I know: it's a waste of time to criticize government policies on the grounds that they don't make sense. This is because so few of them are ever instituted in the first place on the grounds that they make sense; most are a result of a confluence of various political expediencies and inter- ests, as opposed to being intended for anything as silly as the general welfare. Though I know this, one thing or another still gets under my skin once in a while. This week, it was the Bush administration's reaction to a recently released fed- eral study. The study showed that smokers' kids were more likely to be in poorer health than children of former smokers and children whose parents had never smoked. Surgeon General Dr. Lewis Sullivan pounced on the results at once, imploringsmokers with chil- dren to stop smoking because the study proved that the parents' smoking made their kids un- healthy. He must have been kidding, though he sure didn't seem to be. Even assuming the government- financed study is accurate ? no small leap of faith, sad to say ? the study hardly shows what Sullivan seems to think it does. Like Dr. Sullivan himself, the study neglects the far more plau- sible explanation that smokers tend to be less healthy people than non-smokers anyway, even leav- ing aside the effects of their smok- ing habits. In short people who are concerned for their health probably don't smoke. (Here's a simple exercise: consider a three- mi le-a-day jogger who assessesthe nutritional value of everything he eats, carefully tracks his choles- terol level, and also smokes. Now select the one characteristic that does not fit in with the others.) Ifs reasonable to suppose further that children living with their parents are likely to have health habits similar to their par- ents' ?if the parents eat Twinkies between meals, so do the kids ? regardless of whether the kids ac- tually smoke. Hence, common sense alone finds a correlation be- tween smoking parents and un- healthy kids, but nothing estab- lishes a causation. Now, in my opinion, it's a good idea for parents not to smoke around their children ? such smoking seems plenty irrespon- sible, in fact, in light of the well- known health effects of second- hand smoke. But this study shows nothing of the kind ? that is, it demonstrates no potential smok- ing-related health problems for the children of smokers, no causal link between smoking and health. However irresponsible those smoking parents might be, Sullivan is still more irresponsible, for even the lowest moron among the smokers is capable of discern- ing the gaping holes in whatever Sullivan uses in place of reason- ing, and the most rudimentary un- derstanding of human psychol- ogy would inform the good doc- tor that saying such transparently stupid things undermines any re- spect his audience might have for him. Sullivan's sally against smokers is but the latest in a siege begun by Sullivan's predecessor. Dr. C. Everett Koop, who had the saving grace of comparative intel- lectual honesty. The federal line is now, and has long been, that smok- ing is a Bad Thing which ought to be stopped. This is all well and good, as long as the government doesn't attempt prohibition of smoking; and they have not yet attempted this. But the government7 s relent- less yowling is beginning to grate. Evidently, they're trying to create a social climate in which anti- smoking legislation may safely be passed. That's unpleasant, but it too is just tolerable, under the guise of leadership ? provided that in the process they stick to the facts, since, presumably, given open and honest discussion, the best policy will win. What cannot be allowed is the government's bending facts to fit its rhetoric, plugging the square facts into its propaganda's round holes. Sullivan's publiccomment on this study are the first evidence I've seen that the government has gone to this extreme on this issue ? although they're always doing it with other matters ? and if ever there were a time to put a stop to it, that time is surely now. The best way to stop it is to be more tolerant than your gov- ernment is trying to convince you you should be. If other people want to smoke, let them smoke; if, like me, you do not smoke and are allergic to it, politely ask nearby smokers to stop. (And stick to non- smoking sections when possible, naturally?surely these are Ralph Nader's greatest gift to human- ity.) I've found that very few smok- ers fit the stereotype of rude folks who'll tell you to buzz off when you ask them to stop smoking, when I have been polite and con- siderate in my request, they have generally been polite and consid- erate in their response. The government's apparent desire to end smoking altogether would be forgivable, indeed al- most laudable, if it were based on a genuine concern for the health effects of second-hand smoke on non-smokers. But it isn't. They of- ten clothe their talk in the infuriat- ingly paternalistic terms of saving smokers from themselves, but no such altruistic motive guides their hand. No, the real objection is that smoking creates unpleasant odors of which society wishes to rid it- self, and this particular air pollu- tion is attacked with a verve that the government ought more rea- sonably to apply to its presently lackluster efforts to stem the far moreoffensiveand hazardous pol- lutions given off by factories and automobiles. But again I forget myself: that would make sense. Junl27. 1991 ADVERTISING RATESSERVICES OF CLASSIFIEDIYPING St RVKT.sl Reports Re 1 AD RATES HELP WAN ( HOI ARSHH'S j 1 1 1st 2 words Forsruderts ?

Good luck to the brave souls attempting 2nd summer session By Koss and Reid & Mr. Editor's note: We know, we know. These cartoons, like all those this summer, have all been printed before. Our excuse this time: our staff illustrator skipped town for the sunny tropics and left us high and dry. Honest. By the way, one of these comics is an obvious rip off of a nationally-syndicated strip. There is no copyright infringement, so don't call us to complain. We're much too busy trying to think up how to make life hard for people we don't like. And we liked "Highlander" anyway. So there. Just read and remember how much you laughed last time; try to laugh this time.

Critics liked it, callingit "as pure as Goldilocks" and "Never once in bad taste Next came the screen adapta- tion of Edward Albee's "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" in 1966, seriously challenging the Code's profanity provisions. Those involved in the produc- tion of "Virginia Woolf" realized the film could not comply with the Prod uctionCode. The profanityand blasphemy were too constant. Fi- nally it was decided the film could be shown to "mature filmgoers "Midnight Cowboy" came later, in 1970. It was given an "X" rating by United Artists the com- pany that distributed it. It was the biggest picture to be given such a rating. Censors gave "Midnight Cowboy" an "R" rating six months after its premiere, and the film is now hailed by critics as a modern classic and a main influence in moving the American movie in- dustry to a confrontation with film depictions of some of life's more seedy and ugly realities Sexually-oriented material in- creased in movies by this time, and soon, explicit sex found its way to the box office. 'Triple-X" pictures showed genitals, oral and anal pen- etration, heterosexual and homo- sexual sex, and audiences were flocking to the theaters. "Deep Throat" and 'The Devil In Miss Jones" were among the 12 top- grossing movies of 1973. The Production Code finally collapsed. New grounds, subjects that could never be touched before, were now open to exploration. Finally, free expression and motion pictures could co-exist in peace.

Flip cuts her off bitterly, in- forming her tha t he'll bring no mixed up, half this-and-that, children into this evil world. When the inevitable morning comes Flip is surprised to find that she too, has left him. Flip also has to deal with yet another problem. His crack smok- ingoldcr brother.ThisisSpike Lee's first time openly addressing the is- sue of drug addiction in a movie. He does this by pointing out that the problem is not contained to just whites and blacks butotall people. Drug addiction affects every member of society, i t is blind of race, creed, religion or social status. The brother, Gator, stands, arms askew, eyesbugging from withdrawal and dances for money to feed his habit. Hegives personality and charm to a figure that is viewed empty headed and invisible, a wandering nomad of society that has been tossed aside like used trash. The language is harsh, just as the issues presented, especially in the scene where the Good Rever- end Dr. Purity explains through biblical parables his interpretation of what is wrong with the world. Once again Lee has set forth some provocative issues for debate, unlike a lot of films where every problem has a candy coated solu- tion, Lee tells it like it is. There is no ultimate omniscient solution. No moralistic fable designed to set the audience at comfortable ease. Jungle Fever is a perfect ex- ample of how thi ngs are not simply a clear cut division of black and white, and whereas "Do the Right Thing was Lee'sbest film, "Jungle Fever is his best statement, one well worth seeing.

Head coadl Bob Lust departed from the team after the 19) season leaving a vacancy which has yet to be filled bv Athletic Director Dave Hart. When a head coach is named he will come into a team that boasts the same starting lineup two years running, a definite plus. On offense the Pirates bnng back junior forward Tonv Carr who ranked ashighasninthinthenahon with al2 goal, three assist sopho- more campaign. In ECU's first game in 1W0 Carr scored a team-record four goals versus Mt. OliveCollege in a 4-2 win. Adding to the offensive punch of the Pirates are junior Joe Herrmann and senior Austin Batse. Herrmann was the second loading scorer tor the 1990 squad with five goals and four assists A midfielder, Herrmann has the speed to cut the opposing defense wide open and still get back on the defen- sive side of the bail. Batse adds experience to the Pirate offense as a senior and may be the most versatile man on the team. He won CAA Player of the Week honors his sophomore season when he cameoff the bench to engi- neer a defensive shut-out as the goalkeeper. Batse has most recently seen time on the front line for the Pirates scoring four goals and five assists for the 1990 team. On defense the experience will come from Joe Abood. Abood kept the area in front of the goal as a fullback last season and withstood a fierce assault bv oppsmg offenses. He should be the backbone of the Pirate defense. The goalkeepmg position is up for grabs in the fall as sophomore BrvanDeWeese will have to battle a recovering Todd Aspdert Aspden injured hisarmearlv last season but should be back for 1991. DeWeesepreformd well in the tnal bv fire that Aspden's injury caused and matured early to help the Pirates. The fact that the Pirates re- turned all 11 starters is key to the successof the team. ECU's assistant coach Scooty Carey ran the team through some off-season drills in the spnngand faces the 1991 season with optimism. With an experienced returning team the Pirates look to improve on last season's 6-16-1 record. Celebrities come to Greenville Fllapftato Joe Herrmann adds speed scoring and defense tor the Pirates.
