In the past, fraterni- ties have each numbered 40 or more people a night, this past nish week some fraternities numbered as low as 12 per night. "I think the main problem at FCU is the economic situa- tion Ronald Speier. dean of students and advisor to the Intertraternity Council. "The dues tor fraternities tend to be more than s me people can af- ford and I think that may be turning some oi the students awav 'Hie fraternities need tostart reaching out to the non-tradi- wiuild not torn fraternities, such asminoritiesand older students, said Speier. Other factors of the low at- tendance could include lack ot publicity and the dates rush is held, said Speier. Normally rush is held at the beginning oi the semester. If it was held towards the middle of the semester it may help raise the turnout, he said. Another wav to increase rush participation is to take a student survey and let the students give their opinion of what the problem may be. This may help answer a few questions in the slumping turn- out, according to Speier. "1 think one of the main rea- sons turnout was so small is due to more fraternities on campus of F'i Kappa Alpha fraternity.

The other work team did landscape renovations to an el- ementary school and one day the two work teams combined to clean up a community playground. In 1990a work team was sent to Muna, which is on the Yucatan pen- insula, Burcher said. This work team helped build pews for a 100 year old church.

You'll Get Nothing and Like I Opinion Page 4, Tuesday, February 4, 1992 Ends do not justify illegal means Greenville needs improved police force I With the imminent Supreme Court review of the Pennsylvania abortion law, it seems that the entire issue is being thrown into the air once again. One Of the most disturbing aspects of the abortion controversy concerns the actions taken by some anti-abortion activists. Many times the activists use illegal tactics to prevent women from obtaining abortions of civil disobedience. Although both leaders broke the law to prove their point, they never actively promoted violence. Today's abortion activists openly use strong-arm tactics, enforcing their beliefs with whatever actions they feel proper. The differences do not end there. The civil rights movement of the 1960s was Last year, "operation rescue" enveloped baseduponanwreclearcuUssue.Theconst.ru the nation as activists blocked an abortion clinic daily for over a month.

With the abortion issue, the argument is not so well-defined. Anti-abortion proponents are acting on moral belief ? nothing concrete. The argument that today's activists may break the law in order to prove their point is These actions led to the closings of over 50 highly unjustified Yesterday's battles do not percent of the nation's abortion clinics and a compare to today's. dramaticdecreaseinthenumber of doctors who There is a difference between choosing perform abortions. where to sit on a bus, and threatening the life of These activists justify their actions bv ?i doctor performing abortions, pointing out the Similarity of other leaders Comparing the movements of the past to (Ghandi, Martin Luther King, etc.) who broke the anti-abortion actions of the present is like the law in order to prove their point. comparing apples to oranges.

Like its namesake in our nation's capitol, residents there can enjoy an exciting night-life full of break-ins, robbery and shootings This is, however, no fault of the residence. The apartments are physically located in the hubot much of Greenville night-life ? nearly all downtown traffic, be it college stu- dents storming the bars and club high school kids exploring the pa- rameters of the Hardee's and McDonald's parking lot sccneor just lovable oldsters checking out the poolhalls ? they all happen by Georgetowne Anyone can testify that high traffic areas attract crime, just ask the big city folk. The truth of the matter is big- city type crime is becoming more familiar to all of Greenville, not just Georgetowne apartments. But we're still fighting it with small-town meth- ods. Ask someone to keep an eye on your apartment or home Travel in pairs. Dial 9U. As long as we're being honest with ourselves, let's consider how effective those cute refrigerator- memo preventative measures really are. How many thieves and trespass- ers do you think flee in terror when they see the little burglar on the yel- low "community watch" signs? Crap, Neighbor Jones is keepin a close eye on the McKenzie place, I'd be found out for sure! Are threearmed assailants really intimidated by two victims? Looks like an extra wallet to me. And how many angry intruders or rapists are sport- btgenough to let you run to the phone and dial 91 I?To put it plainlv, little pamphlets circulated on campus and cautionary television reminders do not make the city safer, people with badges, guns and handcuffs do. Returning to our prime ex- ample, the proprietors Ol Georgetowne apartments are begin- ning to realie this before the rest of the city, out of necessity. Nighttime security has been hired for the week- ends and other residences would do well to follow suit. Most people wouldn't mind a minor increase in rent to decrease the likelihood of their carbeing vandalized, apartment bro- ken into, or worse yet physical harm. Still independent efforts will not be enough to keep Greenville from be- coming Miami Jr. Our city must startTemploying its police force to fight crime the met- ropolitan way, or we'll con tinuc to be easy pickings for the pros.

The Right Side Journalism turned to cheap entertainment By Nathan Hicks Editorial Columnist Thedaysof thcancient Romans were filled with such atrocities as gladiators fighting lions, gladiator fighting gladiator or several gladia- tors pitted against one. Often the crowd had the final say as to whether or not the loser would live or die, and often the loser wasn't pleased with the bloodthirsty crowd's choice. The Spanish enjoy bullfightingasa favorite pastime teasingand tormenting some miserable creature until the crowd screams for the matador to finish the beast off. Depending upon how stylish and graceful the matador kills the bull will affect the crowd's judgement as to boo or cheer. As humane Americans we tend to view such acts as despicable and barbaric. Yet we have created our own bloodbath of entertainment in that of the media. Who really cares what happens pleasant or beneficial; if it's not smut the hell with it. Such seems to be the popular consensus in the society of today's U.S. Though Mike Tyson may be a formidable and awesome boxer, is whether or not he raped a woman really something we as intelligent beings should be concerned? Obvi- ously so, being that news channels are devoting portions of their hour to cover the trial of Iron Mike. People simply could not get enough of Mike's sad life during a rather nasty divorce, we need to see him bleed even though he may be innocent. How in the hell can such an event be such "entertain- ment" in a society that calls itself "ad- vanced?" Why anyone would want to throw his hat into today's political arena is beyond me. These guys get beat all around the block. No matter who the candidate, chances are the media can dig up some kind of skel- eton to flail in his face. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was com- pletely humiliated and drug through the gutter before finally being seated. Was it necessary to give that crap television coverage or is it just the typcof freak show we learned citizens need to survive? Presidential candidate Dill Clinton is just another victim. Who knows what kind of president he would make; the key is to find some- thing with which to persecute him. Seemingly enough, many high level politicians have been caught up in some type of controversy or scandal that resulted in the parasitic media browbeating them to death with the exception of maybe one N.C. Sena- tor). Who do we vote for with every- one on the ballot being of shady re- pute? Maybe the one who has been sensationalized the least or the one who was merely a womanizer or pros- titute patron. Sure we need to know something about the candidate, but I seriously doubt that we need to t?ke into consideration all the garbage we are already forced to ingest. If the news programs and newspapers weren't enough, televi- sion kicks in back-up with such "in- vestigative journalists" as El Hardo, Donaho, and Sally Jesse Sodom and Gomorrah. Under what rock these cretins crawlpd is a mystery to me; point being, what is ethically enter- taining about three-legged lesbians who had affairs with their serial killer son's victims? Anything else would be boring and mundane, we need something bizarre and repulsive to quench ourinsatiablcthirstforsleaze. It that wasn't the case, these idiots wouldn'tbepollutingthe already filth saturated airwaves. Court trials arc probably the largest growing form of entertainment on television today. We get to see every minute of some sap who may be guilty or innocent. Regardless of the verdict, in our minds' eye the sorry chump is guilty. William Kennedy- Smith provided a plethora of enter- tainment to follow up Judge Thomas. All 1 heard was how "them damn Kennedys are perverts" and "I knew one of them Kennedy s would do some- thing like that Well, them Kennedys keep being put in office which means someone is voting for them. Maybe because we know they'll screw up again and provide us with some good old down home-fun. We ca n have sex over the phone, by videotape or through mail corre- spondence. And while this goes on our libraries rot. Occasionally a commercial is seen promoting our li- braries and learning through reading, but it seems the efforts are in vain. We can do something to clean up our environment. If no one paid attention to all of this yellow journalism, the producers would have to change the content or else they would go broke. AII of the garbage has got to go, and all it takes to get rid of it is to throw it away. Politically correct debate continues To the Editor. Liketrousers from Pierreof Tai- wan, Professor Jeff Williams' letter to the East Carolinian is overly long and made of shoddy material. He wants to persuade us that Stanley Fish didn't really mean it when he titled his lec- ture: 'There is no such thing as free speech, and it's a good thing too Fish stated in his talk that opponents of political correctness (or "PC") of- ten couch themselves in the First Amendment. He went on to say that if "First Amendment processes are now hostile to your interests, you would do better not to rely on them and that if your beliefs are in your power, then you should stuff the "hollow" First Amendment "with a content that will fill your agenda Fish was perfectly direct in his talk: He advocated that free speech be abandoned when it worked against the goals of the "politically correct For his part, Williams ingeniously suggests that Fish was just being "provocative One is reminded of the observation, "Behind every vil- lain comes a sophist with a sponge Williams will no doubt apply his same rigorous standard of judge- ment to any future talks by NAS members. They didn't really mean it he will proclaim. 'They are just being a tad provocative Williams professes to believe that my objection to paying Fish to speak is a denial of my "purported" ideal of free speech. Hardly! Fish can say or play wherever he wants. My objection is to the money the univer- sity gave him to speak, not to his right to speak. It is essential that a univer- sity maintain the right of free speech, but it is not essential that they pay someone to malign that right. Such argumentation, nonetheless, is the frequent tactic of Fish and his ilk: If people can bo persuaded that free speech does not really exist, then they will hardly object when it is subtly withdrawn from them. Professor Williams applies a similarly effortless inferiority of rea- soning to his defense of Fish's public persona. Newspapers as diverse as the New York Times and Wall Street journal, together with scores of local papers, have gotten it all wrong. Fish didn't really circulate a secret letter attempting to keep professors who disagree with him from sitting on im- portant committees and then publicly deny that he had done so. Of course not. A man who advocates aban- doning me constitutional right of free speech would never do such a thing! It is all a conspiracy ? part of thebody count that passes for journalism among those versed in the arcana of literary gymnastics. Actually, Professor Williams is not unsympathetic toFish'sapproach. Imitating Fish (?), he too wrote a letter to a university administrator (not to the East Carolinian where students or N AS members might see it) about the NAS, objecting to the coverage given to N ASevents. That must have slipped his mind while he was writing his two-part column denying the story of Fish's letter.

When jurors returned from their deliberations Monday to de- liver a verdict regarding the state of mind of convicted serial killer leffrey Dahmer, Judge Carlin McDowell read lines of text that he little expected. "Upon further review and tes- timony, this court decides that Mr. Jeffrey Dahmer was sane during the time of his killings, and that Judge McDowell should smile ? you're on Candid Camera? Oh, good gracious At that point in the proceed- ings, a high-pitched asthmatic burst of laughter boomed from thercarof thecourtroom,and New Candid Camera host Dom DeLouise marched toward the bench. "I can't believe this said McDowell, looking into the com- edy show's now-visible camera. "Hi, Mom DeLouise wiped tears of amusement from his eyes and hugged the convicted Dahmer, revealed to be actor Bill Visch. Startled prosecutors looked on in disbelief. "We really worked hard on this one chuckled DeLouise. "Getting people to pretend they were dead for three years, and all that Bill (Visch) went through but it was all worth it Actor Visch admitted that the role was perhaps a bit too arduous for the purpose of one gag. "Well, a lot of people really hate me now, and the close security wasn't a lot of fun. But the look on everyone's face ? ha, ha DeLouise then brought in the talented group of Candid Camera actors who played dead bodies in and under Dahmer's house. While many observers and witnesses fainted, the majority of the court- room stood and applauded as the poseur corpses took a bow. "This role was really a stretch for me, artistically commented Wayne Marr, who portrayed a severed arm. "I think it helped me grow as a thespian Prosecuting attorney Sandra Landers simply shook her head and chuckled. "I knew one man couldn't have eaten all those people "1 could shouted the portly DeLouise, to the enjoyment of the courtroom. The host of the voyeur comedy show revealed that the name Dahmer was in fact a bastardization of his own first name. "1 wanted to show that old potato-skin fart Funt (Allen Funt, the show's original host) that 1 could pull off a bigger gag than he ever had ? and I did ? During another eruption of laughter, DeLouise'S longtime friend and co-worker Burt Reynolds walked into the court- room and delivered a slap to the host's fleshy face. DeLouise has also written a children's book. ! BRIEFLY Mini-satire for busy readers LAW: Tyson rape trial stalls as former heavyweight champ spars with female jurorstoprove his manhood.

Highly unusual speech rocks Congress The Amalgamated Press The Congress' applause was interrupted almost 70 times for the president's recent State of the Union address. By the time the president ar- rived, it was quite clear he would face a receptive audience. For 20 minutes before Mr. Bush'sappear- ance, the assembled members of Congress stamped their feet in rhythm and chanted, "We want George! We want George The president finally ap- peared (fashionably late), bound- ing to the podium amid thunder- ous applause. Grabbing a guitar from a stagehand, the president stepped up to the microphone and proceeded to rock menatkm'sleg- islators for 51 fun-filled minutes. Vice President Dan Quayle pro- vided percussion, mainly by beat- ing his granite-solid head against his mike, while Senator Jesse 1 lelms played bass. The concert ? er, address ? consisted mainly of the same old songs Mr. Bush has been playing for the last three years ? tunes made popular by his mentor, Ro- nald Reagan. There was little new material, and most ot it was disap- pointing. Heeven ripped off some material from his Democratic and Republican challengers. Yet the president's audience seemed inexplicablycaptivated by the performance. "I don't know what it is about him gushed House Speaker Tom Folly. "1 don't like the guy, 1 have to criticize everything he stands for and yet he's so ? so ? so drcamyl" The State of the Union address marks Mr. Bush's first U.S. con- cert in some time. The popular entertainer ?er, president ? has been widely criticized in recent months for performing only on foreign tours, neglecting his core American audience. But many fans seem to have welcomed him back with open arms. "1 welcome him back with open arms said a starry-eyed Senator Robert Dole. "We'vebeen waiting for him to come back to America for three years now ? and, you know, it's like he never really left Highlights of Bush's State of the Union speech ?

An organization composed of the descendants of the corsair Blackbeard's final crew, the "S.o'B.s as they like to call them- selves, say the term "pirate" and the "saber slash" are derogatory. "We are proud oi our seafar- ing heritage Sons o' Blackboard spokesman Sonny Blackboard said. "What's more, the nobility and bloody gore of a high-seas raid is trivialized by this silly wav- ing of foam swords. "After we saw news reports on the Native Americans who got pis ? uh, upset about the Redskins' and Braves' mascots, we said, 'Hey, those guys are on to something So the S.o'B.s plan to peace- fully picket all ECU games.

"Where we went wrong, was in looking behind the grassy knoll explained Khan Spiracy, the cre- ator of the Grand Unified Assassi- nation Theory. "What we never suspected was that it was the knoll that was doing the shooting According to the GUAT, which was never a sound effect in the old Batman TV show, but we think it ought to have been, the shot that killed President Kennedy actually came from a rotund per- son cleverly disguised as a knoll. "And I believe I know who that rotund person is Spiracy said. "My extensive research lea ves no doubt that only one man could have assassinated the presi- dent: Pepe DePew, ECU'sdirector of Public Safety Spiracy later explained that his "extensive research" consisted mainly of getting DePew drunk, after which the officer admitted to his role in the plot.
