Students flock to beaches for break
By Elizabeth Shimmel
Debaters challenge record
The St. Andrews College Debate Soci-
ety will attempt to break the world record
tor the longest parliamentary debate in the
United States by holding a debate that will
last from April 4-April 26.
The discussion will run 24 hours a dav
for the entire three week period
The theme for the debate will be
"There's No Place Like Home" and will
focus on the problem of homelessness.
Participants will donate $10 each, and
all of the funds raised from the debate will
be given to Habitat for Humanity.
"My goal is to have all the hours filled
at any time, but also have a core group of
2(1 of 30 debaters who can show up and
debate on short notice said Debate Soci-
ety coach, Lisa Dubs.
U.I. holds bug festival
Students at The University of Illinois
who suffer from bug-a-phobia will be in-
vited to attend the Insect Fear Film Festi-
val.
The day-long celebration was started
bv Professor May Greenbaum who said
he wants to change the negative images
people have about bugs.
Greenbaum will have plenty of crea-
tures on hand, some dead and some alive,
to introduce to the crowd.
An animated film titled, "How the
Frog's Eve Sees" will give viewer's a frog's
eve view of catching a fly.
The festival will also feature such clas-
sic films as "The FIv" and "Flesh Feast
School fights brain drain
Rockv Mountain College is offering
full tuition scholarships to high school vale-
dictorians throughout the state of Mon-
tana.
Montana school officials are offering
the scholarships because of their concern
that there is a "brain-drain" in which the
best students from the state often leave the
state for larger colleges and universities.
The scholarship students will serve as
residence life tutors, academic tutors, lab
assistants or teaching assistants in their
junior or senior years.
Professor injects tans
A dermatologist at the University of
Arizona has developed a synthetic hor-
mone that would make it possible for
people to get a suntan without actually
being exposed to sunlight
Dr. Norman Levine injected a group of
young men with the hormone 10 times,
over a 12 day peritd, and all of the men
developed tans from the injections.
The men's faces and necks showed the
most obvious tanning, while their midsec-
tions and buttocks didn't tan at all.
Three side effects were found, but no
serious complications were involved.
Library close to folding
The library at the University of North
Carolina has reached a critical point in its
survival, and officials fear what will be-
come of the library if financial support
cannot be found.
"We are very close to the point of no
return (to the library's former status)
said John Nadad, chairman of the library's
administrative board.
Book and serial purchases have been
repeatedly cut, and officials said they can-
not afford anymore cuts.
Nadad said the library needs to estab-
lish a solid financial base in order to re-
bound from its current crisis.

Once again, that timeof year
has come when beach commu-
nities acmss the country brush
off their welcome mats for the
onslaught of fun-loving college
students who fill these beaches
during Spring Break.
But some of these towns
would rather trade in their wel-
come mats for a Do Not Enter
sign.
Kev West, Fla is not ex-
tending a warm welcome to
Spring Breakers, but instead is
asking students to consider the
following before chwsing Kev
West as their Spring Break des-
tination: Kev West police ar-
rested over 6U) underage drink-
ers last v ear, and over 9(X) false
driver's licenses were confis-
cated , the average cost of a hotel
room is $100-$150 per night, and
their lodging facilities are lim-
ited, as there areonlv twocamp-
grounds.
Key West also wants stu-
dents to know that the Florida
Keysare "environmentally frag-
ile and their laws and law en-
forcement agents are very strict.
"We're just letting you
know before you get here, that
there are some things you need
to know about Key West said
Patty Green, executiveassistant
to the city manager.
Many ECU students have
plans to travel to Key West, but
do not see these warnings as a
threat.
"1 don't think it's going to
be a big problem senior Wil-
liamComptonsaid. "(They will)
still have some people going to
jail, and people not going to jail,
just like there will be people
d linking, and also peopledrink-
ing tcx) much
Those who drink too much
will be the targets of some strict
drinking laws in Fort Lauder-
dale this year.
The laws, including an open
container restriction, went into
effect after the deaths of several
students a few years ago.
Since these incidents, Fort
Lauderdale has tried to attract
more families to vacation with
them, and move away from the
Spring Break crowd.
"They just decided to go for
another market, and they've
been very successful with it
said Georgia Carter, director of
public relations for Destination
Daytona, Daytona's convention
and visitor's bureau.
Spring Break hot-spots ev-
erywhereare taking precautions
to prevent the kinds of deaths
and accidents thatoccurreddur-
ing the break in the 1980s.
Chief Ed ward Sanders of the
South Padre Island, Texas police
department suggests that stu-
dents use common sense and
the "buddy system" to insure a
safe Spring Break.
"What we recommend is
that you buddy up with a friend,
someone you can look out for,
someone who will look out for
you and your belongings Sand-
ers said. "Spring Break doesn't
just bring wholesome collegestu-
dents who want to have a good
time, other people are going to
come with the idea of stealing
and robbing
While some communities
feel they need to warn the Spring
Breakcrowd, many are welcom-
ing the thousandsof tourists with
open arms.
Daytona Beach, Fla Mayor
Lawrence J. Kelly signed a proc-
lamation issuing a "warm wel-
come to those who join us from
campuses across the United
States, Canada, and other coun-
tries" during Spring Break 1992.
Chief of Police Paul B. Crow
said, "It is with great pleasure
that 1 take this opportunity to
welcome collegiate Spring Break
enthusiasts to our City
Daytona has planned nu-
merous indoor and outdcxr ac-
tivities for the usual 2(X),(XX) to
40CUXX) students who will spend
theirSpring Break therebetween
the peak time of March 9-29.
"Daytona is doing very
well said Raphael Marcucci, a
spokesman for the Florida De-
partment of Tourism.
Marcucci said most of
Florida's coastal areas welcome
students because of the tremen-
dous economic boost they pro-
vide to thesecommunities, espe-
cially since Florida tourism fell
as a whole in 1991 for the first
time in 12 years.
"The recession has really
hurt tourism overall Marcucci
said.
Even though Americans
may be traveling less because of
the recession, travel agents say
hordes of college students will
still descend on the coastal areas
of our country.
"We've seen a slight decline
in air travel. There's a little less
money to go around but stu-
dents are just finding more inex-
pensive ways to travel said
Stuart Himmelfarb, vice presi-
dent of Roper College Track,
which studies the spending hab-
its of students.
Many students who cannot
afford a cruise to the Bahamas or
a Colorado ski trip are finding
the beaches of North and South
Carolina to be an ideal Spring
Break destination.
The Myrtle Beach Area
Chamber of Commerce has pre-
pared for the annual pilgrimage
of "thousands of Spring Break-
ers from dozens of colleges and
universities" to their beaches.
Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle
Beach have planned numerous
events and activities for students
who have chosen to spend their
Spring Break in that area.
Fantasy organization finds games ban unconstitutional
By Julie Roscoe
Assistant News Editor
Entering a world of make-believeand
taking an imaginary journey through a
mythical land with monsters and heroes is
not a bad way to spend a Saturday night.
Unfortunately, ECU students living
in rvsklence halls cannot play out the fan-
tasy in the form of the game "Dungeons
and Dragons" (D&D) because ECU ad-
ministrators have banned the game in resi-
dence halls.
The policy printed in Linng Swa?, the
official gu kie for students res id ing on cam -
pus, states, "Psychokigical games such as
Ouija boards, 'Dungeons and Dragons
and Killer' are all prohibited in the resi-
dence halls
Karen Greenwell, president of Fan-
tasy Science Fktion Organization, oppt ses
the ban on psvchokgkal games, not only
also because she is a player of D&D, but
because she said she feels it is a vklahon of
the First Amendment.
" All the rules in the policy book are for
student protection, for a ban on D&D, the
university first has to prove there is a
danger Greenwell said.
"The university is setting a precedent,
a violent precedent. 1 have a problem with
this rule and am offended that they are
telling me what games I can and cannot
play. You start with something as small as
this and a domino effect results
Several
lawyers agree
with her.
Wayland
Sermons and
Jim Vosburgh
areattomeysin
Washington,
N.C who de-
fended North
Carolina State
students in
1988on trial for
murder. The
students had
been deeply
involved in
D&D, but the
students were
also taking the
hallucinogen
LSD.
The court
found the stu-
dents guilty.
One of the nine
factors Sermons used during sentencing
which may have reduced his client's respon-
sibility for the crime was the students' in-
volvement in D&D.
His client received the death penalty
during sentencing.
Janet Johnson, assistant director of resi-
dent education, said the administration
banned D&D and other games because they
are disturbing
anddisruptive.
But D&D is
"not a problem
at this institu-
tion right
now Johnson
said.
"Yes,other
schools nation-
ally have
implemented
rules against
disruptivepsy-
chological
games John-
son said.
She could
not name any
universities
which had
banned the
games.
Carol
Chenault, as-
sistant director
for Judicial Affairs at N.C State, said they
do not have any rule banning any psycho-
logical games including D&D.
Tom McLaughlin, a representative of
the manufacturer of D&D, TSR Hobbies,
said he had never heard of any public
university banning D&D.
'That is fairly peculiar McLaughlin
said. "What's next, banning Steven King
novels or certain horror movies in the
dorms?"
Sermons said he believes that between
"drug usage and fantasy role playing, (the
N.C State student) could no bnger dis-
cern between what was real and what was
a game But Sermons said he disagrees
with ECU's ban on the game.
"It needs to be addressed, but a ban is
not an answer Sermons said. 'The day
we get into banning ga mes you can play in
college is a scary day indeed
Vosburgh agreed with GreenweU's
charge of violation of the First Amend-
ment
"This action by the university is cen-
sorship and unconstitutional, it is in viola-
tion of freedom of thought, expression,
speech and association Vosburgh said.
Brian Blume, the vice president of
TSR Hobbies, told The New York Times in
1990 that people play D&D to use their
imagination.
"The game is a game of heroic fantasy
and, in order for the players to be able to
perform heroic deeds, they have to have
things to overcome Blume said. "The
things most fun to overcome are things
that are evil, foul, rotten and nasty, so we
also included some things that were evil,
foul, rotten and nasty for that reason
Two public schools ended the use of
D&D in their gifted children programs
after their communities loudly opposed it
See D&D. page 2
Greg Schossler, David Raynor and Nick Gregory took advantage of the Spring-like weather Tuesday
afternoon by moving their furniture out on the campusjjiaU and catching some rays.
Beaches plan
various activities
The following is a list of just some of
the activities planned at several beaches
around the country.
Daytona Beach will play host to MTV
during the week of Spring Break, and the
network plans to tape many of it'spopular
comedy, rock and rap shows, in addition
to several Spring Break segments.
Daytona Beach will also be the stage
for the Miss Hawaiian Tropic Interna-
tional Beauty Pageant Friday, March 13.
Traditionally Key West barricades
their main road where most of the major
bars and tourist attractions are located,
but officials said they will not do so this
year unless the crowds become a traffic
hazard.
Myrtle Beach is hosting the National
Shag Dance Championship March 12-14.
A St. Patrick's Day celebration will be
held March 14 in North Myrtle Beach.
South Padre Island, Texas, will host
the "Sprint Sand Classic where Spring
Breakers will be able to help shape 1,000
tons of sand into a three story castle with
Sprint's familiar logo carved into the top.

Helpful tips for springbreakers
Spring Break
Those words, rolling off the tongue,
evoke a flutter in the stomach, a colorful mix
of memories, expec-
tations and a mental
image fit to be wor-
shiped bv college stu-
dents everywhere.
Even before the
final syllable is pro-
nounced, a faint vet
unmistakable tinge
oi coconut oil wafts
through the air, a dis-
tant squawk of
seagulls is heard and somewher- a wave is
breaking on a deserted whitewashed beach.
This week ECU students are blunder-
ing through the final week of mid-terms,
exams, papers and class, anxiously await-
ing Friday's promise of reward.
We at The East Carolinian want to share
several tips with you Spring Break-ers.
First, we'd like to extend a congrats to
thoseofyou 'vho diligently plodded to class
spite tne spring weather. You serve as
good examples, very much unlike the ex-
ample given bv The Wiretapping Adminis-
tration, or Mr. Women-Who-Get-Raped-
I eserve-It.
"Spring Break
Even before the final syllable
is pronouneed, a faint yet unmis-
takable tinge of coconut oil wafts
through the air, a distant
squawk of seagulls is heard and
somewhere a wave is breaking
on a deserted beach"
Second, we would like to wish every-
one a fantastic Spring Break, whether it will
include beach, ski or travel. But along with
this, we hope to
share the National
Crime Prevention
Council's "Eight
Wavs to Ruin Spring
Break
1. Wear your
best (ewelry.
2. Take a stroll
on the beach at 3 a.m.
all by yourself.
i 3. Tantalize
thieves with an overstuffed purse.
4. Be generous. Share amr hotel key,
your car and your ID with new friends.
5. Decorate the beach with vour be-
longings.
b. Take lots of cash and cram it in your
pocket ? along with vour credit cards.
7. Give the pick-pocket a break ? keep
vour wallet in vour back pocket
8. (This is our favoriteCiet so trashed
you don't know where you are or what you
are doing.
So, other than these few, simple guide-
lines, take the ECU tradition wherever you
go and raise a little hell.
Letters to the Editor
Chancellor vetoed
grading system
i I ? ?? Editor
I read with interest the recent
editorial supporting consideration of
plus-minus grading system fur ECU
- i ral years ago. a committee of the
Faculty Senate proposed adoption of
a system, and the Senate ap-
at proposal But Chancellor
H.i kin vetoed the Senate's action Per-
Kl - -tudent body will have
re influence with the Chancellor
than we faculty obviously have
Sincerely,

Bulley speeds
past safe driving
To The Editor
1 would like to give mv opinion
gafding part one of Matthew
ley s two-part editorial column,
I S should adopt lflf) mph limit in
the Feb 1X issue of The East Carolinian
1 did not find part two in Thursday's
edition I
Mr Bullev. vou s,iv that the ex-
pression "Speed Kills" is simply "pro-
paganda" and that "American driv-
ers are not inherently sociopathic or
reckless Most deaths are caused by
choice of life style ? smoking, drink-
ing, drug use, casual sex, etc Since
when does being behind the steering
wheel oi a cot raise the 1Qor heighten
the level of common sense in a per-
son7
The f ac t of the matter is a car can
neither be handled well at extremely
high speeds nor can the brain react
fast enough in a crisis to handle the
type of collision that may occur in a
car that has been traveling at 100 mph
Thehigher therateof speed, thegreater
the risk of personal danger For ex-
ample,bumpingintoatreewhile park-
ing can bend the car bumper, but
smashing into a tree at 95 or 100 mph
turns a car fas well as its occupants)
into something resembling .m alumi-
num foil ball
Yes, it's true it doesn't take a
physics professor to understand this,
but there's another side suppose you
smash into another caf or a pedestrian
or a school bus tilled with children or
the side of a crowded lunch cafeteria
That's when vour speeding becomes
my problem or my tragedy You can
just as easily say drunk driving is vour
business ? but not if you kill some-
one else by doing it
A teenager was speeding one
very foggy morning to school down a
very curvy road when she came upon
an intersection before she realized it
and totally missed the stop sign Too
bad, all she got was a broken finger
Mv dad got broken ribs, a ruptured
diaphragm, internal bleeding, a con-
cussion, minor brain damage, partial
paralysis, a shortened leg, just to men-
tion a few problems, plus the emo-
tional impact on our family, never-
ending hospital bills and grand-mal
seizures which cost him his profes-
sion Maybe she shared your opinion,
Bullev, but I'll be damned if I do
It's time The East Carolinian
started publishing a newspaper wor-
thy of its college status and stopped
being a sounding board for ignorance
like yours

Parking tickets

denial of my appeal of a $15 parking

less than two minutes to go check a

On The Fringe
On smoking, Mandelker, and a lug wrench
By Tim E.

Columnist
my windshield He said he could not
void it there, but he wrote the words,
"v nd-owner arrived" on the citation
so that they would void it at the traffic
office
I immediately went down to
the traffic office They called the offi-
cer who gave me the citation The
officer conveniently forgot about it
The ladv at the traffic office said that
the only thing I could do was file an
appeal, and she gave me an appeal
form
The appeal form was not fair. It
only gave me about seven or eight
lines on which to write the details of
mv case Whv was I not allowed to
spea k before the appeal board71 think
I should have at least been allowed to
say all that I wanted to say
After two months of waiting, 1
got a letter of denial There was no
explanation as to why my appeal was
denied It ust said that my appeal was
denied and that my records would be
tagged until it was paid It also said
that they could assist me by explain-
ing the regulations or helping me to
locate legal parking areas This insult
to my intelligence was totally unnec-
essary
It would have been unprofit-
able to the university for the Appeals
Boani to grant my appeal But if I had
stuck to the rules, I would have had to
walk nearly all the way across cam-
pus just to check a grade
Students and staff members pav
the same amount for parking decals,
but staff members always have plenty
of parking spaces while students have
to struggle to find them
Asa result, there are many traf-
fic jams, especially in the morning,
and students are frequently late to
class
I think thai anyone who pays
$70 for a parking decal, staff member
or student, should be able to find a
parking space If the university does
not build more student lots, they
should give all students who pur-
chased parking decals a partial re-
fund

When the last breath of the tire's
air wheezed out, and the passers-by
grinned with sick pleasure at our de-
mise, thoughts became so painful that
they fumed into laughter
Spare, jack, iug wrench Wait,
no lug wrench It has to be here some
where, maybe under that nasty blan-
ket that hasn't left the trunk in five
years, or maybe under that mystery
raincoat Strangely enough, like the
time I found the remote control in the
freezer, we took a peek in the glove
compartment
Car trouble always signifies
some deep internal problem Not with
the car, but with me It was at that
moment of self-realization that I re-
membered placing the ug wrench
beside my bed toward off any hardline
anti-smoking ad vocates, or misguided
pundits who believe the term RAPE
was invented bv feminists as a ploy to
overthrow men
A confessed somnambulant, 1
haveseen such creatures on soapboxes
in my bedroom, preaching the gospel
of idiocy, keeping me from dreams oi
a refuge from hypersensitivity. But
after awaking naked in the street at 3

ments a rise, someone will always take
the extremist view, just to peeve ev-
er zone
1 et us quickly rum to the argu-
ment of Dr Mandelker, whose letter
to editor has created quite an alarm,
and rightly so While Mandelker may-
be the the campus president of the
National Association of Schohrs, I
hope other members of the NAS do
not align themselves with his briefs
on RAPE
When extracted from its super-
fluous jargon, a paraphrase of his let-
ter might read as such Rape ain't

Pro-choicers hide behind double-speak
By Scott
Maxwell
Editorial
Columnist
Most pro-choice people support
their pm-choice position in part by
saying they think everyone ought to
be free to do as they please with their
own bodies, as long as they don't hurt
others Forthesakeofdiscussion,let's
call this the Body Principle.
Most anti-choice people also
claim to believe in the Body Principle
?though they believea woman hurts
someone else when she has an abor-
tion
And since most people are ei-
ther pro-choice or anti-choice, it fol-
lows that most people profess a belief
in the Body Principle
But it isn't oft?n pointed out
that the Body Principle applies to lots
of issues other than abortion ? and
leads to conclusions that some may
find hard to accept. Here are some
For starters, a believer in the
Body Principle must support legaliz-
ing prostitution. If a person may do
what he chooses with his own body,
surely he may choose to rent it to
people who want to have sex with it.
And Body Principle believers
can't stop at legalizing renting one's
own body to others; it must also be
made legal to sell one's own body (or
parts of it) to others
At present, it's illegal tor me to
sell you one of my kidnevs, for ex-
ample,even if you need it to save your
lite It's perfectly all right to give away
a kidney, butnot to sell one
But if we honestly believe in the
principle that it's my body, and there-
fore my kidney, and I have a right to
do what I want with it, then we must
accept that 1 have a right to sell it.
(Incidentally, we could keep this from
leading to slavery by deciding that a
person may have a right to sell his
body, but not his freedom ? a diffi-
cult but important distinction.)
It's kind of disgusting to imag-
ine a young mother forced to sell a
lung to keep her kids from starving,
which is the sort of thing that would
be bound to happen if it were legal to
sell body parts Butoursqueamishness
doesn't excuse treading on her rights
And anyway, would it be better to let
her children starve'
Further, believers in the Body
Principle must support the
relegalization of the possession and
use of currently illegal drugs It is
within the Body Principle to arrest
someone for, say, dnving under the
influence of a drug, since he thereby
endangers others And it doesn't fol-
low from the Body Principle that sell-
ing drugs should be legal
But a law against smoking a
joint in one's own home cannot be
reconciled with a belief in the Body
Principle the smoker harms no one
but himself, ai he is within his rights

More important W BU d -
sion, a law against suicide clearlv vio-
lates the Body Principle ? such a Iff
is in fact the ultimate violation of it
Body Pnnciple supporters must ac-
cept that everyone has a nght to kul

m a way that poses no th reat k i. thers
Most pnxhoice people will. 1
hope, agree with the preceding coml-
lanes of the Bodv Principle Those
who don't, are being disingenuous
when thev claim to believe a woman
has the nght to control her own t?v
? thev reallv mean onlv that she has
the nght to have an abortion, and that

Of course, even if the abortion

to rest tomorrow, I don't thmk maay
self-professed believers in the Body
Principle (pro- or anti-cho?? would
team up to legalize prostitution, drug
use, suicide and trafficking in body

Mandelker adds to this an un-

? littk understanding of, that it
uld require to' much time and

Rape and date rape are. bow-
t not feminist plots Rape laws
ire not a weapon women are wield-
ly to trv to gain "preferential treat-
ment " Ihev are laws designed to
protect women from the violent in-
vasion of their bodies bv those few
men who choose to use their phvsica 1
strength to Vi tuvue others Rape is
a rime that concemi and affects ev-
er' member ot this tociety both
male and female Every woman s ho
is raped surelv is either a triend lis
ter, mother, or daughter Of main-
tains gome other relationship with
men None of us live in I vacuum
Mandelker clearly does not un-
derstand theemotional ramifications
of rape - not just for women but for
our whole society When someone
forces another person to hav e sexual
intercourse without their consent, the
results are individual and collective
The personal consequences of hav-
ing been a victim of rape are often
catastrophic Rape victims are in-
creasingly likely to commit suicide,
become substance abusers or simply
find themselves unable to respond to
the everyday demands of life They
often live in absolute terror of being
Victimized again ? of not being able
that there have been reported cases
of men being raped The law is
designed to protect them as well
although there are some states
which require prosecution under
different statutes, with slightly dif-
fering language In this instance I
find it difficult to understand how
the laws against rape are a radical
feminist plot to divide men and
women
Furthermore, it is impossible
to speak of sexual harassment as
the same type of crime as rape It
simply is not In fact, sexual ha-
rassment is rarely considered a
crime in most states unless it rises
to the level of "indecent liberties"
More Letters
Students voice more concerns toward Mandelker
to protect or control one of the most
intimate aspects of their bodies and or perhaps threats of violence It is
their lives usually a civil issue Mandelker is.
Rape is an extremely painful I suppose, not interested in that
experience physically as well as emo- distinction For those men who are
tionallv Women know when thev
have been raped Thev fust don't al-
ways know that the system is in-
tended to protect them
It is for these reasons I assume
that the piece of "radical feminist
propaganda" on the fourth floor of
the Prewster building was potted for
students to see
I am absolutely sure that mil
literature was not intended to indi-
cate to students that they should all
run up to the campus police and re-
port any MXUal relations they may
have had as d.ite rapes' It is I'm sure,
potted there to reach those women
who know thay were physically vio-
lated or attacked but feel that be-
cause thev know the man who raped
them he is somehow not responsible
tor the rape itselt In fact, often these
bulletins are not seeking to pursue
criminal charges, but to get these
voung women into therapy so that
thev mav at least heal themselves
In the Mike Tyson case, which
I can only assume that Mandelker
thinks to be a grave miscarriage ot
justice, a jury Of Mr Tyson's peers
choose to believe that Tyton had sev
with his victim without her consent
and, in tact, used brute force to sub-
due and rape her Rape, even date
rape, requires sexual intercourse to
OCCUr between two people, without
the consent of one individual
In addition, although rape is
tvpicallv perpetrated on women and
girlv it isiiotonlvsomethingth.it can
happen to women It Mr Mandelker
checked his facts, he would know-
reading this response I hope that
you will make note of the fact that
Mandelker seeks to use your con-
fusion about the issue of what con-
stitutes sexual harassment, to con-
tuse the issue of what constitutes
criminal rape
If you are a college student
here at ECU and you are unsure
from a man's perspective, what
might constitute date rape and how-
to avoid those kinds of allegations,
I would recommend that the uni-
versity fund a program designed
to answer your questions
I should add that, although I
disagree drastically with many of
Mr Mandelker's philosophical and
political theories, 1 support abso-
lutely his right to relate them to the
public
I caution him, however,
when he's sharing his views on
issues that may effect the safety
and well-being of college students
that he think through what he has
to sav and that he furthermore, only
relate his understanding ot the law
On those issues when he is sure that
he himself understands that law
1, as an officer of the court
and as a woman, resent Mandelker
using fear and contusion on one
issue to create distrust and fear
about another I suppose for this he
would consider me a radical femi-
nist dedicated to the destruction of
men It is he who I consider to be
the person inciting "antagonism
between the sexes "
To The Editor
In response to the letter wnt-
ten by Dr Steven Mandelker in the
Feb. 25 issue, my initial reaction was
one of disbelief One would think
mat a man of Dr Mandelker'seduca-
tional attainment would be able to
formulate a more clearly intelligible
letter or to at least make a valid point
Dr Mandelker does neither
What is your point Dr
Mandelker7 Since you opted to be
grossly vague in your letter, I will
respond to a few points that you
seemed to be trying to make
Firstoff in yourletteryou speak
constantly of definitions Why don't
you give any of your own7 If you
have such a clear-cut idea of where to
draw the line between rape and ha-
rassment then please do so It would
sive us less perceptive people an
incredible amount of trouble You
say at one punt m your letter, and I
quote, "Under the guise of prevent-
ing rape as to unfairly stigmatie
normal heterosexual interaction " I
don't know what you consider "nor-
mal" but it your idea of heterosexual
interaction could beconstrued as rape
tfien you have a definite pmblem
with your ideals And what do you
mean when you say date rape is an
"alleged phenomenon7" It seems to
me that your primary tools for mak-
ing your point are what r.eorge
Orwell called "meaningless words"
in his essay "Politics and the English
Language"
"Meaningless words" are
words constantly used in a dishon-
est way, meaning that they do not
point to any discoverable object, but
the person who uses them has his
her own private definition, but al-
lows their hearers to think that they
mean something quite different
Secondly, radical feminists
may go overboard at times, but just
beca use a tew do so is not a justifiable
reason to condemn the wholeof them
It seems to me that one who so vio-
lently opposes a gmup does so be-
cause they feel threatened by that
group Throughout the entire letter,
the tone is mean-spirited and even
bordering on downright viciousness.
I can understand making a point (or
trying to) but this attitude on such a
sensitive subject is inappropriate,
even cruel
Thirdly, many women don't
know that they have been raped be-
cause they have been wrongfully in-
formed that if a fnend does it it isn't
rape and should be forgotten If this is
your view, then you are the one with
me problem, not the feminists Rape is
for real, date rape is for real, there is no
illusion or rhetoric about it It is reality
Wake up and smell me coffee, or at
least wake up
Lastly, argument and logic are
me bread and butter of a man of phi-
losophy, and you haven't shown me
that you are a master of either You
cannot use a few extreme and scattered
facts to formulate a valid argument
and to makea point If you are trying to
receive support in your claim at, least
make them clear or don't make them at
all
Oh, I almost forgot You accuse
people of looking through dirty spec-
tacles77 From the sound of it you have
no riKim to talk: If you support me
views that you state in your letter you
haven't even opened your eyes

To The Editor
My first response to Mr
Mandelker's ignorance is anger No one
is trying to persuade you mat a new
crime exist This crime (date or acquain-
tance rape) has existed for years As for
me "radical feminist propaganda" in
Brvwsterbuilding trutsUies"mostcam-
pus rapes re committed by someone
the victim knows, so she may mink it
doesn'tcount .so if this happens to you,
please report it mis is to encourage
women who know they feel like they
have been violated in this hornble man-
ner, but feel mat they won't be believed
or that they are responsible because they
were in the wrong place at me wrong
time, or because they trusted someone
they knew This doesn't encourage
women who don't mink that they have
been raped, this encourages women mat
have been raped to come forward and
help stop mis hornble crime
Regardless of what me law is,
women who have been forced to have
sex. whether it is a stranger or someone
that they know, shll expenence the feel-
ings of anger, fear, blame, disgust, hu-
miliation and of being abused Yes me
definition of rape is being broadened
beca use it is no longer acceptable to force
sex on someone you know, whether it be
a fnend, lover or wife If mis is your idea
of normal heterosexual interaction, you
are probably guilty of rape yourself It is
a shame mat a woman has to be held at
knifepointor beaten half todeath foryou
to consider mis as violence against
women Feminist don't want to divide
thesexes Itisactsofviolenceandharass-
ment mat divide the sexes My spec-
tacles are clean, Mr Mandelker, and
when I look at you, I still see dirt
Julie Johnson

Counselor Education
To The Editor
I couldn't believe what I read
How can anyone in mis day and
age be so ignorant to what goes on in
this society7 Do people really believe
mat date rape is something made up in
me female mind7
Women are already afraid to
bnng charges against their attackers,
and people with views like Mandelker
make it even harder for women to
come forward
Tell me wvat woman wants to
go through the abuse of pressing
charges and having her name raked
through the mud Her friends whis-
pering about her strangers coming up
withtheirownconclusionsof what she
did Her sex life is tracked down since
puberty and displayed for a courtroom
full of people and men she never slept
with coming forward to help someone
in me "old boys club " And if that isn't
enough she has to recount what hap-
pened over and over again, virtually
putting herself through it again
When men are raped by other
men people say mat it was a violent
and sick act No one says, "Oh, he
deserved it being out till 1 a.m wear-
ing those skin ught jeans and flirting
with everybody Hisacrjonsand dress
have nothing to do with what was
done, and it shouldn't have anything
to do with women either.
Nobody male or female should
be forced into sex
I know mere always be people,
some men that feel as you, Mr
Mandelker, who will probably never
understand thatdate rape cananddoes
happen You will never understand
what women go through because of
me svstem and non-believers like you
For people like you I have four words
mat are universal in any language,
STOP OR I'LL SHOOT"

Administration official defends DePeiofrom criticism
Underhander stands up to journalists
h ftMMY Olson
A university administrator
recently attempted to shield
ECU Public Safety Director
Pepe DePew's involvement in
the slaving of President lohn
Kennedy.
During the Media Bored
meetingon Thursday. Supreme
Ruler of Mendenhell Rude E.
Underhander said journalists
are "beating" the DePew case
into the ground. Underhander
fingered a set of brass knuckles
while he spoke He said there's
nothing he could do about the
student newspaper's reports.
"1 realize that I can't do any-
thing about this Underhander
said. "Other than tightening the
Media Bored's grip on the
paper's finances, asking my
buddv in the Physical Plant to
cut off their heat and replacing
the paper's general manager
with one of my flunkies, my op-
tions are limited.
"But I just thought that the
paper should know how I feel
about the articles that keep com-
ing up
Underhander's statement
follows a report by The Amal-
gamated Press linking ECU Pub-
lic Safety Director Pepe DePew
to the assassination of President
John Kennedy.
The report explained an
expert's theory that DePew, dis-
guised as a grassy knoll, killed
Kennedy.
Questions arose as to why
Underhander would attempt to
shield DePew in such an obvi-
ous manner. Academy-award-
winning director of '60s burn-
out films Allover Stoned says he
knows the answer.
"It came to me in a flashba?
uh, flash Stoned said, in addi-
tion to DePew, other ECU staff
members, including Under-
hander, are connected to the JFK
slaving. In fact, a character in my
film IFK is based on
Underhander
To protect himself from law-
suits. Stoned did not say which
Of FK's characters represented
Underhander, but said it was
either the seedy gunman or the
effeminate Mafia conspirator.
Some facts lend credence to
Stoned's allegations. In his tax
records from 1963, Underhander
stated his occupation as an im-
porter of Cuban Astroturf v
Following the shooting
death of his eldest son, Santmo.
Underhander gave the business
to his voungest son Michael and
went to work for ECU.
"Alfredo (Underhander's
second son) was too wimpy
Underhander has said publicly.
In addition, Dallas emer-
gency room records show that
DePew was treated for "serious
rug burns and a nasty case of
turf-toe" on Nov. 3, i3, one
day after Kennedy's death.
When asked about uncon-
firmed reports that he plans to
sever his ties to organized crime,
Underhander replied, "Yes ?
uh, no ? I mean, no comment

There, between the fine line of a

and the peak of sexual ecstasy, the
trio oi Gibb Droll will sway the
audience into a state of blues eu-

The Gibb Droll Band will be walking a fine line between a deeply moving religious experience and the peak
of sexual estacy while playing the blues at the Attic this evening.
Gibb Droll: Texas blues flood
By Tim Hampton
Staff Writer
When Gibb Droll strokes and
bends his chords tonight at the At-
tic, the maniacal guitarist will be
preaching the gospel of the blues at
an orgasmic pitch.
There, between the fine line of a
doi'plv-mining religious experience
and the peak of sexual ecstasy, the
trio of Gibb Droll will sway the
audience into a state of blues eu-
phoria The impetus for this soul-
drenching, emotional reaction is the
guitar wizardry of theband's name-
sake, Mr Droll, who prefers just
Sibb.
Tonight will be Gibb's second
performance at the Attic, after a
heat-induced-rvthm-and-blues-
blizzard show on Feb. 13. During
that first Greenville venue, Gibb
and his band mates Mike Williams
(drums, keyboard) and Tom Hall
(bass) floored the crowd with a bal-
anced attack of Stevie Ray Vaughn
(God Bless His Soul), a myriad of
other Blues Gods and original cuts
of a deep-blue nature.
Both Williams and Hall qualify
as true Blues Brothers; the drum-
mer has jazz influence and the bass-
ist plucks a meaty string. But the
band's f(Kal point is the play of
Gibb's bleeding Strati vaster s: one
black and one red.
Linking Stevie Ray Yaughan
riffs with blues Godfather Albert
King licks, Gibb carries on the lin-
eage of TexasChicago Blues with
his unique finger print. For the Vir-
ginia Beach native, the soulful tra-
dition is what his music is all about.
"Albert King, Jimmy Reed,
Freddy King ? it is all about soul,
and the Blues is like history, you can
trace it back to these innovators
Gibb said.
Although, when listening to
Gibb, it is most apparent that SRV
(Vaughan) has had an ever- lasting
influence on him.
"I was 13 when I realized he
(SRV) was the deal, and I started to
imitate him he said. Preparing for
tonight's gig, the band will pour

Starting at age 10, with a beat

guitar prowess without learning to
read notes. Similar to Albert King,
Gibb is a natural lefty, yet plays

Wood possesses a
sense of assuredness

'Star Wars' continues
with comic series
By Cliff Coffey
Staff Writer
Thanks to Dark Horse Com-
ics, the Star Wars saga continues.
When George Lucas ended
the Star Wars Trilogy with The
Return Of The Jedi many people
thought they would never see
anything else on Luke
Skywalker, Han Solo, R2-D2 or
Princess Leia again, however af-
ter successes with taking the
Predator, Aliens and Terminator
movies into comics, Dark Horse
bought the rights to release a
comics based on the characters
from Star Wars.
The new saga begins years
later; Luke is a full Jedi Master,
Princess Leia is a Jedi and the
Rebels have failed to unite the
universe into a peaceful union.
An Imperial force has grown and
is getting stronger very quickly.
Luke and Lando Calrissian
pilot a stolen Imperial ship to
discover the heart of the Impe-
rial uprising. The closer they get
to the new Empire, the more Luke
realizes that there is something
terribly wrong. Luke feels the
Dark Side of the force emerging,
a very strong Dark Side.
Luke and Lando are shot
down over an Imperial City.
Lando escapes but Luke decides
that he must face the Dark Side.
Luke, with his trusty companion
R2-D2, enters the Dark City.
Han Solo and Leia, now mar-
ried, are attempting to lead the
Rebel Forces against a now very
powerful Empire.
In secret, the Imperial Forces
have been building star fighters
and destroyers, and a new ship
that is larger and deadlier than
the Death Star.
Leia, being a Jedi and Luke's
sister, feels that Luke is in grave
danger, but due to the predica-
ment of the Rebels, she's unable
to go to his aid.
Solo and Chewbacca prepare
the Millenium Falcon to lead the
Rebel star fighters into battle and
to hopefully rescue Lando on the
surface of Calamari.
The entire uprising of the I m-
perial Forces was the result of the
return of the Imperial Emperor.
Luke comes face to face with the
man he thought dead. The Em-
peror offers Luke a chance to ex-
perience the Dark Side, a chance
Luke accepts.
Writer Tom Vietch keeps the
personalities of the characters true
and has concocted an interesting
base for the six issue series. Cam
Kennedy, the artist, draws the
characters so that they are recog-
nizable on the first sight.

Cage saw his newfound abil-
ity a way to make money, and he
started a business called Hero For
Hire. Hero For Hire worked well
for him and he earned money
and got connections to clear his
name from the crime he was un-
justly convicted for.
Cage then found his way into
a few supergroups, including the
Defenders and the Fantastic Four.
His guest appearances helped
him jump around the Marvel Uni-
verse. Other heroes also appeared
in his comic, which, eventually
lead up to an Iron Fist cross over.
Iron Fist is a master of the martial
arts and can mystically cause his
hand to be as hard as iron.
Iron Fist and Cage quickly
became friends and started a busi-
ness together called Heroes For
Hire. Cage and Iron Fist worked
well together, for 75 issues (the
equivalent of six years) until Iron
Fist presumably died. Cage was
then framed for the murder of
Iron Fist and was persued by law
enforcement agencies including
the FBI. Cage was once again on
the run from the law. For six
years Cage was unsee ? in the
Marvel Universe.
Cage was cleared of the mur-
der of Iron Fist when Iron Fist
resurfaced in another comic,
Namor, the Sub-Mariner. Cage
made a three issue appearance in
the Punisher, a crazed vigilante
and one of comics most popular
characters. After the three issues,
Cage appeared in his own book
again, Cage.
Cage is an attempt to re-es-
tablish Luke Cage in the Marvel
Universe. Cage is now in Chi-
cago where a newspaper tycoon,
Mr. Drewston, is determined to
make Cage the headlines of every
paper he puts out, because super
heroes sell papers. Mr. Drewston
also hired the best available re-
porters to follow Cage's career.
The first issue centered
around the other people that
Drewston hired and their play in
trying to make Cage agree to be-
come part of the paper. It was
also a way to make the readers
familiar with the supporting cast
that will be in the comic. The first
issue of Cage is what is referred to
as a "set up" issue Even so, it
was a disappointment. The vil-
lain of the story was a weak char-
acter and he still bested Cage, but
the potential of the supporting
cast is enormous.
Marc McLaurin, the writer of
the series, will hopefully listen to
what the readers want instead of
changing everything about the
character. Too many times when
a new series starts the writer of
the series changes the character's
personality. The first issue kept
Cage's personality true to history.
Another thing that readers are
already requesting is the appear-
ance of Iron Fist. Only time will
tell how well McLaurin contin-
ues on the series.

with his right hand. The inability to
read notes and the left-hand play-
ing do not deter him from unleash-
ing wicked, voodoo wails.
Akin to SRV and Jimi Hendrix,
Gibb is a showman capable of play-
ing behind bom his head and back,
much to the elation of the crowd.
Gibb defends his showmanship:
"Hendrix said it best 'a true
bluesman shows their blues in dif-
ferent wavs It's not an arrogance,
it's a feeling
During a gig at Virginia Beach's
Boat House, the guitarist lost his
"real baby a sea-foam green
Stratocaster, in the encore perfor-
mance, partially because one of these
"feelings" took over.
"1 threw the guitar down, but I
didn't expect it would break. I look
at it now and think 'Gibb, what a
nerd
But most often, he displays
showmanship through less heart-
breaking means. Actually, he makes
love to the guitar, including kissing
the fret board and tongue licking
the strings to create unique guitar
licks.
In fact, Gibb says that there is a
closecorrelation to making love and
playing guitar. While on stage, he
often thinks of his girlfriend Carrie,
for whom the instrumental is
named. At the same time, he feels
the religious ambiance involved
with performing, like a pulpit-
pounding pastor delivering a ser-
mon.
The never-ending time spent
on the ribbons of highway has led
Gibb to this religious allusion.
"We are on the road ? play ?
on the mad, so that little time when
we are on stage, I feel one with God
I am deeply indebted for the gifts
God gave me
And Gibb is the man to spread
the good news.
"It is unfortunate, but Stevie's
death had a lot to do with the blues
revival
Gibb, who is 22, remembers
that fateful day, Aug. 27, 199(1,
Vaughan died in a helicopter acci-
dent. "I was doing Western Civ.
homework, but it didn't really hit
me until 1 played a tribute (to
Vaughan) on the radio that night
the King. When he finally does,
Shane puts the King in the hospi-
tal.
After that attack on Bobby,
which left him in the hospital for a
few days, the boys knew that they
could wait no longer, the time came
for the "Big Idea The "Big Idea"
requires a belief in each other and
in the nearly impossible.
Bobby and Michael heard sto-
ries about the legend of a boy
named Fisher when they moved
into their new neighborhood.
Fisher was said to fly, really fly
without the aid of a plane. This
gave the two boys the "Big Idea
Thev took Bobby's little red
wagon, the Radio Flyer, and at-
tempted to build an aircraft so that
Bobbv could escape the terrors of
the stepfather.
Bobby and Michael went to a
junk yard and collected many
items. They spent days in the shed
behind the house trying to build
the "Big Idea Once they com-
pleted the project, Bobby and
Michael went to the place they
called the "Wishing Spot There
was the place that Fisher flew, and
it was there that Bobby wanted to
make his attempt.
The Radio Flyer the boys made
was pushed down the hill of the
"Wishing Spot" and was on its test
flight. Michael and his mother
watched as Bobby's fate was de-
cided.
There is a moral to Radio Flyer,
something deeper than a simple
childhood tale. As the advertise-
ments suggest, it is powered by
imagination.
The movie holds insights to
childhood that most adults forget
they ever had, this is part of Radio
Hyer's appeal.

have to dream a little?about the things
you've always wanted to do: travel, explore,
?tart a business. Just imagine
With a dream and a plan, you can make it
happen. Your pension and Social Security
.?mski should provide a good
basic retirement income,
but what about all those
extras that make your
dreams possible? You'll
probably need some
additional savings.
THE DREAM IS YOUR OWN.

TIAA-CREF Supplemental Retirement
Annuities (SRAs), tax-deferred annuities for
people like you in education and research, are
a good way to save for retirement and save
on taxes now. SRAs are easy?you make con-
tributions through your institution before your I
taxes are calculated, so you pay less tax now.
You pay no tax on
your SRA contributions
and earnings until you
receive them as income.
And saving regularly
means your contribu-
tions and their earnings
can add up quickly.
What else makes SRAs
so special? A broad range
of allocation choices, from
the safety of T1AA to the
investment accounts of
CREFs variable annuity;
no sales charges; a variety of ways to receive
income, including annuities, payments over a
fixed period, or cash. You may also be able to
borrow against your SRA accumulation
before you retire.
All this, plus the top investment manage-
ment that has helped make TIAA-CREF the
largest retirement system in the country.
So start dreaming and planning for the time
of your life. Because the sooner you start your
SRA. the greater your savings and your retire-
ment will be.

Southeastern Conference bans

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) The image of a baseball
player with a big plug of tobacco stuck in his jaw has

But the Southeastern Conference, in a move
expected to be a precurser for all of college baseball.
as banned tobacco products from the mouths ot
players, coaches and umpires during league games
this season.
It's seen as a progressive step bv SEC officials
and coaches, who said they're concerned about the
health problems caused by tobacco and snuff use
"It's time baseball took a stance on this. Au-
burn coach Hal Baird said.

"We should be able to make the decision our-
selves, not have somebody tell us what to do
added Brian Senn. a Tiger pitcher who describes
rumsell as a "big-time chewer" ol tobacco.
Even catcher Mickey lorney, who doesn't use
tobacco, is opposed to the new rule.
"Most ol these guys are old enough to marry,
but they Can't put in a chew anymore. Fomev said.
Last year, the NCAA took the first step in the
war on tobacco bv prohibiting its use in the national
tournament. The SEC has gone a step farther, ap-
parently becoming the first conference to ban it
from league games.
Commissioner Roy Kramer initially suggested
to the coaches that tobacco products be barred from
the league's post-season tournament. But the coaches
decided on a season-long ban
"People realize that this is something that cer-
tainly cam affect vour health said lohnGuthne. an
associate commissioner The coaches certainly
don't want to advocate or condone something that
is harmful to voung people
Some players jokingly talked about defying the
new rule ? "When I'm in the outfield, 1 don't think
thev could see me out there Killimett said ? but
there could be serious ramifications if they're caught.

In a ceremony held Feb. 13 at

Appeanng at the ceremony to
accept for the Aggiesof Texas A&M
was Head coach R.C Slocum. Rep-
resenting the Ordinal of Stanford

Walsh will be making his re-
turn to college coaching in the Clas-
sic, replacing Dennis Green, who

sota Vikings.

seven game winning streak, finish-
DisiKytand
SMK3

to sustain it. Steven Stenstrom is a
talented, poised quarterback. He's
a winner and we will be dependent
upon him
Although the Aggies were 10-2
last season, Coach Slocum said: "We
plan to change the style of our of-
fense getting awav from the option-
game we used before the gradua-
tion of Bucky Richardson. We're
now going to copy some of BUI
Walsh's philosophies
