harassment policies
By Jeff Becker
Staff Writer
On a roll
The roller-blading fad has finally hit Greenville and the ECU campus Many
active students have been taking advantage of the sunny weather
(n March 20, EC U 's I tard i A I rust-
ees passed three amendments to the
f.jsf Carolina University Faculty Manual
to u pdate the university's sexual, racial
and ethnic harassment and discrimina-
tion polices and prohibit relationships
between students and their teachers.
The first amendment. Appendix
V, expands H U's existing sexual ha-
rassment and discrimination policy to
include more than just blatant sexual
propositions. According to Mary Ann
Rose, director of equal employment
opportune (FFO), the amendmentcat-
egorizes sexual harassment into two
groups: straight-out exchange and hos-
tile environment.
"Hostile environment is where
don't ever say to you 'III do this for you
it von do this for me tvpeof deal, but I
just make life hell tor you " Rose said
" Fhe easiest example u i tuld be in the
workforce. The guy who comes in and
just makes life hell for his secretary:
who appnaches her, makes 11 mments
about her body, remarks, gestures, that
kind of thing
Appendix V also prohibits any re-
lationships between studentsand teach-
ers. The Amendment states
it is against the policies of East
c arolina University for employees of
the um ersir to engage in consensual
amorous relationships with students
from whom the employee is or will be
supervising andor evaluating (This
policy does not apply in cases where
both the amorous relationship and the
supervising andor ealuating rela-
tionship were initiated before the
policy's adoption date.)"
Rose said conflicts of interest can
be avoided.
"If you are in mv class, and we are
in love, we are going to top seeing
each other for the duration of this class
or, what we can do, is move vou to
another class " he said
Policies concerning favoritism be-
tween university employees are gov-
erned in a separate amendment to the
Faculty Manual.
The second amendment. Appen-
dix VV, states that any form of racial or
ethnic harassment or discrimination
causing unequal treatment or severe
emotional disturbance will violate uni-
versity policy.
The Amendment defines harass-
ment as insulting, threatening, harm-
ing or unfairly treating someone be-
cause of their race or ethnic affiliation.
Policies umcerningdiscnmination
in hiring and recruitment are handled
in a separate amendment to the Faculty
Manual
The third amendment, Appendix
Y establishes two levels of procedures
for handling grievances brought
against faculty members The proce-
dures not onlv establish guidelines for

Union president-elect sets new goals
By Christie Lawrence
Staff Writer
Dena Price, the Student
Union president-elect, has set
new goals tor next year's event
programming
I'm e's ision and goals for
the future incliidecontinuing the
enthusiasm anil the quality of
programming that she has seen
since she became involved In the
Student Union and promoting
Student Union events.
"If a person did nothing
moreoncampus than attend Stu-
dent Lnion eviTtts, they'd be
busy every night Price said.
To continue the quality of
programming, Price plans to do
some co-programming of simi-
lar events within different com-
mittees. For example, co-pro-
gTamming a film series with an
art series.

the Student Lnion was respon-

known Student Lnion event is
Barefoot on the Mall.
Price's involvement over me
past three years in student orga-
nizations and leadership posi-
tions will help her in her en-
deavor as the future Student
Union President
Price has been a member of
a social sorority, the Residence
Hall Association and president
of two honor societies. This past
year she served as the produc-
tions hair of the Student Union.
Patrick I ougherty, the cur-
rent Student Union president,
said whoever has the position of
Student Union president has to
havea visionof where they want
the Student Lnion to go
The purpose of the Student
Union is to provide balanced
programs to suit the needs of the
diverse student btxly
Price s first duty was to ap-
point an assistant and 11 chair-
persons for the committees.
According ti Price, most of these
chairpersons are strong leaders

Phcrto by Kavin Amoa ? ECU Photo Lab
Dena Price, the Student Union president-elect, and current President Patrick Dougherty discuss
future plans Price will take over the position Apnl 26
part of the challenge in the Stu-
dent Union is to maintain a high
level of enthusiasm. Since many
of the new committee members
have not been involved with the
Student Union before, Price feels
that they will "breathe new life"
into this year's Student Union.
Promotion of all of the Stu-
dent U nion ev ents is one of Pnce's
biggest goals. She said almost
every form of entertainment on
campus is bmught here by those
who are on the Student Union

SGA offers voting incentives
By Julie Roscoe
Assistant Ntws Editor
S( .A is looking for new ways to
increase student involvement and vot-
ing in theSC ' A elections on April Lsuch
as prizes for voting and increasing stu-
dent awareness of the candidates.
"Last vear, fewer than 5()0 students
voted said Kristie Hoffstedder, chair
of the SO A elections committee. "That's
just sad
Hoffstedder is in charge of making
sure things run sm?Hthly and all the
election rules are followed.
To increase the student involvement
the vice chair, Brett Joyl, and the 15-
member elections committee are creat-
ing incentives such as gifts of Blow-
Pops for voters and a raffle for a bicycle
from The Bicycle Post.
Another idea in the works is a free
night at a local bar for the organization
with the most voter turnout, Hoffstedder
said.
She said students need to realize
SOA controls many assets of ECU, in-
cluding money, rules and influence.
The SOA receives about $17S,(XX)
from student tuition fees. Last spring,
during the annual appropriations, SGA
gave student organizations $150,448.
1 he president of SC .A has a voting
voiceon the Board of Trustees and many
committees around campus.

cently represented all students by sit-
ting on the committee which selected

Handicapped students
raise public awareness
By Amy Humphries
Staff Writer
The handicapped students at
ECU hope to promote understand-
ingand raiseawarenessamongstu-
dents, faculty and the community
about the handicapped. People
United to Support the Handicapped
(PUSH) is a new organization for
that purpose.
"I think the PUSH group will
be g(xd for the campus and the
community said Susan
Pogemiller, founder of PUSH at
ECU. Problemsof the handicapped
often go unnoticed or are simply
not known, she said.
Thepurposeof PUSH istoserve
the needs of the handicapped and
to educate thecampus and commu-
nity. Students with both visibleand
non-visible handicaps must often
fight being stigmatized, Pagemiller
said, and fear of the unknown has a
lot to do with this problem.
"People don't know whether
toapproach you or just ignore you
Pagemiller said.
She said another problem for
the handicapped is prejudice and
Ed ucation could solvemostof these
attitudinal barriers.
The role of PUSH is to advocate
and educate. "People need to be
aware of the abilities of the handi-
capped and know that we're inde-

pendent, not helpless said Sheila
Newbem, president of Cotten Hall,
a handicapped student.
One suggestion Pogemiller
gave to improve accessibility for
handicapped students on the cam-
pus is to insta more elevators. Not
all buildings on campus have them
which makes it difficult for handi-
capped students to get the classes
they need.
Another idea is to make wheel-
chair ramps less steep to improve
safety and accessibility.
"We hope to be recognized as a
campus organization Fogemiller
said.
ECU'S group is the third TUSH
organization to be established on a
college campus, although many
universities have similar groups.
PUSH was first organized at
Indiana University in Pennsylva-
nia by Greg Miller. Miller formed a
second PUSH group at Western Il-
linois University when he went to
work there.
Susan Pogemiller, now coordi-
nator of Cotten Hall, became presi-
dent of the second group before
bringing the organization to ECU.
She saw the need for the organiza-
bon at ECU and decided to form a
PUSH group.
Non-handicapped students
and faculty are also welcomed by
PUSH groups.

validating the complaint and de-
termining disciplinary action, but
also set up guidelines for advising
and counseling the complainant.
First level harassment and
discrimination grievances begin
with a written or verbal complaint
filed to the University Grievance
Officer. Level one procedures al-
low the complainant to remain
anonymous to the respondent.
If the matter is not resolved at
the first level, a second set of pro-
cedures are initiated. At the sec-
ond level, complainants and re-
spondents present their cases be-
fore a seven-member Grievance
Board.
The Grievance Board deter-
mines the validity of the complaint
and takes its findings to the chan-
cellor. The chancellor can then re-
ject or approve theGrievance Board
decision.
If the chancellor determines
guilt, he decides punishment. The
chancellor has several options in-
cluding demoting, suspending or
dismissing the respondent. The re-
spondent, however, can make a
final appeal to the to the
chancellor's decision.
The three amendments will
take effect in the fall of 1992.

Students should go to SGA forum
As the presidential election draws closer, a
good number of college students are facing an
option never before open to them: the chance to
help decide the next chief executive of thecountry.
While pessimists dovvnplav their electoral impor-
tance as drops in the bucket, others realize the
sizeable responsibility with which thev are now
charged.
For you who feel unpracticed and wary of
making the big calls, there is a perfect warm-up
opportunity as a prelude to lever-pulling. Involve
yourself in the SGA elections.
The first item on the agenda one must always
approach before an election is information Some-
times, however, one finds it hard to sift through all
the media coverage and come to a clear view of
candidates running in an election This will not be
a problem with our SGA elections.
Tomorrow at 4 p m on the mall, every ECU
student will have the first-hand opportunity to
view the candidates dunng a SGA forum The
chance should not be missed.
Too often we let politics become, like other
enterprises, a family business People who see
their relatives making a difference realize the
plausibilty of holding positions, and those
disinvolved consider it impossible.
In the long nm, becoming an active force in
decision-making is theonly way to initiatechange,
improvement and fairness. Letters to the editor
may make one feel important, but voting and
mnning for offices insures it. The nagging adage
still applies - vou cannot complain if you do not
make the effort.
Take the opportunity to check out the candi-
dates that help shape your immediate future. If
unsure of someone's platform, go the forum.
The idea that academia is apart from "the real
world" is a grave misconception, leaders of the
future make their beginnings here What happens
here matters, and it affects you
Now vou can affect it in return.

Clueless Dr Steven Mandelker
is clueless No, thedistmguished pnv
lessor is not stupid because anyone
with a doctorate degree is intelligent
However, knowledge of all subjects is
of course not required for a doctorate
If knowledge of rape was a prerequi-
site for I Ph D, Mandelker would
never have acquired his undergradu-
ate degree
Mandelker may voice his opin-
ion, the First Amendment allows him
the freedom to speak (or write) what-
ever he chooses However, before an-
gry horde bang down his office dixir,
let us remember that in the most lit-
eral sense, the man does not know
what he is talking about From his
claim that women are widening the
definition of rape and thus making it
a "meaningless rhetorical flourish I
would venture to guess that Dr.
Mandelker has never been raped He
has never been thrown on a hard floor,
had a handkerchief stuffed down his
throat and had his clothes npped off
Mandelker does not understand the
humiliation of having a very private,
intimate act turned into nothing more
than violence
Mandelker claims that women
"wish to exploit occasional acts of v u?
lence in order to claim universal vic-
timization "Norape victim, femaleor
male, wishes to cry universal victim-
ization, Mandelker On the contrary,
most rape victims instead want jus-
tice for the crimes that have been com-
mitted against them A rape victim
does not wish her pain and suffering
on anyone else
Mandelker obviously does not
know the sadness and frustration that
rape victims feel when their attackers
go free I certainly do not condone
shooting Mandelker, or anyone for
neither their views nor their actions
However, 1 do understand the anger
that women feel when they have been
victimized lagreewithDr Mandelker
that violence is not the answer, but
neither is ignorance Mandelker con-
dones both Perhaps the reason that
these women reacted in such a hostile
manner is they have been made to feel
like "the bad guys " This is basically
dragging out the tired, old argument
that the victim is at fault for the crime
that has been committed Perhaps if
these women hadn't been attacked
and called radical feminists in the first
place, they would not have had rea-
son to be hostile toward Dr
Mandelker
In his Feb 25 letter to the editor,
Mandelker calls date rape an "alleged
phenomenon " He needs to wake up
By pretending that date rape does not
exist, our distinguished professor is
creating a completely new set of prob-
lems He is in effect saying that we
should believe the accused rapist if
his accuser is a feminist or even sub-
scribes to feminist theones Accused
rapists are entitled to fair trials A
with any crime, due process is in or-
der, but offering general absolution to
accused rapists is not an answer ei-
ther Mancielker is saying that if a
women reports a crime, then that
makes her a radical feminist bent on
the destruction of men Making the
victims bear the guilt is no solution
Believe me, Dr Mandelker, the victim
already feels unnecessary guilt, you
need not make her feel more
No, 1 am not claiming that "im-
proper innuendo" is a form of rape A
tasteless tacky joke or improper sug-
gestion is not rape, buteitherone may
be a sign that a women (or a man)
should be aware of There is no law
against "improper innuendo but
women and men alike should notice
what could be the beginnings of
trouble The trouble could become
rape, it could become sexual harass-
ment, it may become nothing But ig-
noring such improper statements is
no solution, and neither a
women who ppose such totpi a
suggestions "radical feminist- either
It believing that rape is a real - - -

ch.inge his "proverbial tune

would not be so quick to condemn

of rape is Perhaps then he wou 1
pause for a moment before he extr
his pen and slanders these "rad'

these women do not want preierentu
treatment, but rather want only to be
treated equally and fairly under the
law Mandelker would probably real-
ize that these women are not radical at
all, but rather reasonable mdivici
who have been treated without rea-
son
In his most recent editorial,
Mandelker states that, "perhaps it j the
conception of rape) is simply a casi I
penis envy " If this were true wry
would any women envy the Mreap '
used against her in a violent crime?
The male sex organ is not always a
weapon, but when it is used agao v" J
woman in a violent act such as rape it
becomes a weapon and, therefore ?
certainly not to be envied by the ic-
tim
Yes, rape is a horrible crime o,
victims are not always treated with
dignity or fairness, but until people
like Dr Mandelker take a more in-
formed approach to the subject ot rape,
there will never be progress toward
helping the victims and treating the
offenders Mandelker needs to real-
ize that women are not using rape to
get attention or to bash men, they only
wish to find justice for a legitimate
crime

Letters to the Editor
Greek issue
not relevant
To the Editor
Election time is again upon us
hereat List Carolina and again it seems
as though one of the top candidates
for the Student Government Associa-
tion is being overlixked because she
is not affiliated with one of the
campus' Greek organizations
Courtney Jones is running for the po-
sition of SGA President and is with-
out question one of the most qualified
persons ever to seek the position.
Ms Jones has been active in the
student government since her fresh-
man year when she was freshman
class president She has since gone on
to become one of the most valued
legislators within student govern-
ment, as recognized by her fellow rep-
resentatives by her many awards, and
currently holds the position of speaker
of the legislature in the SGA Ms
Jones has become experienced in the
many tedious and confusing processes
affiliated with any student govern-
ment to better represent every stu-
dent on this campus, non-Greek as
well as Greek
My objective in writing this let-
ter is to help my fellow student real-
ize the importance and power that the
SGA president holds with his or her
position on the Board of Trustees,
Chairof the Fine Arts Funding Board,
along with several other positions and
responsibilities With that in mind it
is important for us to elect a person
who has the knowledge and experi-
ence 10 handle the position and repre-
sent the student body in the best pos-
sible way
Although it may not appear by
this letter, I am also a member of a
Greek fraternity but feel that it is im-
portant to speak on behalf of the bet-
ter candidate. Ms Jones feels that she
is the best candidate because of her
three years of dedicated service to her
fellow students on the SGA while her
opponent feels that he can win the
election simply because he is Greek,
even though he has no experience
You may still be saying to yourself
that a Greek will better represent me
because "I'm a Greek well how can
he if he has no idea how the system
works? And just because Ms. Jones is
not a Greek member does not make
her "anti-Greek instead 23 of her
appointments within the legislature
went to Greek members.
My point is, that you should
first take the time to vote on April 1
because of the importance of your
representa tives and how well they can
work for you and then cast your ballot
with a clear mind that you are voting
for the best candidate, not one you
may feel you have to simply because
he or she is Greek and so are you,
because that's no reason at all Once
you come to that realization I feel that
you will vote for experience, leader-
ship, and someone who will represent
you to the best of her ability and that
person is Courtney Jones.
Kevin Smith
Senior Class Vice President
Jones best choice
for SGA president
To the Editor:
As the SGA Secretary for the
past two years, I have had theexperi-
ence of dealing with every member
of the Legislature. This experience
has enabled me to know just what it
takes to run the Student Government
Association Office. The election for
the 1992-1993 Executive Officers is
going to be held April 1,1992.1 am
writing this letter to give you my
opinion on who is the best person to
fill the jobas Presidentof the Student
Government Association, Ms.
Courtney Jones.
This year, I have had the op-
t
ft
portunity to work very closely with
Ms Jones during her service as
Speaker of the Legislature. Her com-
mitment to the SGA and her desire to
serve her fellow students to the best
of her ability that has been shown in
the past three years that she has held
a position on the SGA.
Working closely with the past
two SGA Presidents, I have seen what
is needed to be a competent and suc-
cessful in the office as President. I am
positive that Courtney embodies all
the needed characteristics to be one
of East Carolina's best SGA Presi-
dent
This past year alone, Ms. Jones,
is speaker of the Legislature, a voting
member of the Fine Arts Funding
Board, and a voting member of the
Transit Board. She has also co-coor-
dinated the two SGA Leadership
Training Retreats, coordinated the
SGA Procedures and SGA Program-
ming Committees, as well as orga-
nized and conducted the Double
Funding Hearing.
A vote for Courtney Jones
would be a vote for a hard working
individual who is here for you, die
students of East Carolina Univer-
sity.

Seminar needs
no funding
To the Editor:
Two weeks ago when I re-
sponded to Dr. Mandelker's argu-
ment regarding rape and date rape,
I may have inadvertently chosen to
use the word "fund" when suggest-
ing that if there is concern among
the student population about these
issues then perhaps they should try
to get the university to "fund" a
seminar of some sort. To clear up
any confusion about that particular
statement, I would like to say that I
will be happy to speak to any group
on campus regarding rape, date
rape, miscommunication, the legal
process, the counseling process for
victims or any other issues of this
nature that may arise. I am also sure
that we can find other professionals
in the community who would be
happy to lend their time for a project
like this. I expect these people would
and should include men as well as
women. I have given a number of
these kinds of seminars before for
police and students and I have been
trained as a rape crisis counselor by
a major metropolitan hospital. I
have never been paid in the past for
these lectures and I certainly don't
require payment in the future, how-
ever, part of Mandelker's point is
well taken
As someone who has been
trained to use language properly I
should have been more careful in
my choiceof words I would recom-
mend that Mr. Mandelker try to do
the same From the sound of bis
rebuttal letter last Tuesday, the en-
tire world, both male and female
misunderstood his February 25th
letter to The East Carolinian That
can only mean that he failed to com-
municate his real meaning to his
audience.
If he truly was only arguing
that we should not expand the defi-
nition of rape to include improper
innuendo, then I am in complete
agreement with him I expect that
most of the others who responded
to the letter agree as well. In addi-
tion, since Mr. Mandelker insists on
labeling me and a number of others
as "radical feminists" I would be
interested in hearing what his defi-
nition of a "radical feminist" actu-
ally ia.

Highlights of today's
press conference
Mud-slinging mars debate
around, all around, all over the
country
President Bush defended the
destabilization policy from hos-
tile questioners, claiming the
policy does not conflict with ear-
lier statements that the United
States would refrain from inter-
Bush. "Let a guy keep using it,
though, about a year, can do a
lotta damage.Gotta get ridda that.
Knives dangerous
Second, Bush told astonished
reporters that Iraq would then be
re-armed ? by the United States.
The president presented his
fering in the internal affairs of other plan to re-arm Iraq as a boon for

of free bubble sheets.
And then it got nasty. Mr.
Condoms (vou know, that short
gu vwho hangs out at gas stations)
and his supporters unleashed a
barrage of dirt clogs at the Tizza
party. After plucking the clogs
from the pepperoni, the Pizza fol-

slices of mud pies.

prettv terrible sight. Almost as bad

Armed with dirt clogs and
mud pies, the opposing sides
battled on the Mall until the
Condomites retreated to the Gen-

Satire-at-a-glance for busy readers
LAW: An unsympathetic judge resentences Leona Helmsley to
four years in jail ? the judge has stayed in one of her hotels.
PUBLISHING: People magazine complains that celebrities
don't die often enough to keep their cover filled with beloved,
recently dead celebs. The magazine is pushing Congress to mandate
that one celebrity be chosen at random every month and summarily
executed. Good idea.
POLITICS: In the future, everyone will run for president for 15
minutes.
TV: Fashion critic Mr. Blackwell sues Johnny Carson, claiming the
popular entertainer hurt his reputation by joking about Blackwell's
annual worst-dressed list. The joke in question had Carson saying
that Blackwell was "a stuffy, easily offended slob who'd probably

ers tried todo was elicit cheap laughs
with corny humor.
Yet the writers also included a
murder with an automatic weapon,
a thug being thrown out of a win-
dow to his death and Tutti shooting
an illegal weapons dealer in the
shoulder.
In one scene, Tutti helps her
son make a collar. The scene pans
out with light-hearted, if inane, hu-
mor until an automatic weapon is
pointed atTutti's temple. Instantly,
the severity of the situation becomes
apparent to the viewer but obvi-
ously not to the producers, writers
or director. They would have view-
ers blithely dismiss the weapons as
an integral part of the humor.
The filmmakers lose touch with
their work entirely. They seem to
thinkthatfilming 15scenes with the
same characters present in each con-
stitutes a motion picture. In another
scene, Tutti tellsabouther husband's
death while sickening funeral par-
lor music pervades the sound track.
This overtly sentimental scene
seems to have been edited in from
some other sub-par film. The scene
is completely unnecessary. No at-
tention is given to the atmosphere
of the preceding or em uing scene.
Consequently, the audience is left
alternatively disturbed by the vio-
lence and nauseated by the phony
sentimentality.
STOP! Or My Mom Will Shoot
presents theatre audiences with yet
another inept, incoherent, insipid,
inaudible and intolerable Stallone
character inhabiting a story that is
unbelievable, unbalanced, unbear-
able, uninteresting and
unwatchable. There is not one re-
deeming quality to the film. It is so
bad that it should skip video release
and head straight for television.
Only those who do not see the
film will think this criticism harsh.
On a scale of one to 10, this film
rates a one.

DC cards enter
market with style
By Cliff Coffey
Staff Writer
DC Comics, an entertainment
institution for over 50 years, has
expanded into trading cards.
In the wake of a trading card
frenzv, DC Comics has just re-
leased its first series of trading
cards called, "Cosmic Cards: In-
augural Edition It is a set of 180
cards.
Baeseball card sets number
850, and for football run about 650
cards, st) a 180 card set may seem
small, but when it is placed against
other cards that have been issued
from comics, such a the X-Force
cards (approximately 100 cards),
the X-Men cards (approximately
100 cards) and the Marvel Uni-
verse Cards (approximately 160
for series I and series II) it is the
largest so far.
There are good reasons for
this. DC is trying to tell 50 years of
history with their cards, and they
do tell the history in a brief way.
Each card houses a different char-
acter, and the back of the card
gives a small explication of their
importance to the DC Universe.
DC has commissioned several
top named comic artists for the
cards. Artists include Kevin
Maguire, Bart Sears, and Walt
Simonson.
To stir more interest in the
cards, DC has issued lOholograms
that will be placed randomly in
the packs.
Holograms have been very
popular in cards, usually though,
there are only five or six holo-
grams in a set of cards.
DC knows that holograms sell
cards so they've added 10, once
again more than anyone else has
done. The individual packs sell
for approximately 75 cents and a
box of 36 packs sell for approxi-
mately $25.

as intense as your empathy with the

band barely a year old is short of
miraculous and a prophesy that
Slowdive's progress is likely to be
astonishing at the very least
Slowdive's music is atmospheric without being gloomy, ethereal without a trace of pretension. With each listening there is something new to find
and instead of diving, the group's music is sure to rise to the charts.

Senior SportsWriter
Behind exceptional defense,
trong pitching and a pounding of-
fense, the ECU Lady Pirates were
recentlv ranked No. 6 in the South
Region. The region includes two
teams in the national poll (S. W. Loui-
siana No. 9 and Florida State at No.
13.).
"We're excited to have been
voted to the number ix slot, how-
ever the season is still young and
we still have games to be played
Head co,Kh Sue Manahan said. The
ranking is the first for the Lady
Pirates this vear, and with contin-
ued success thev should climb the
charts into the national rankings.
On Wednesday, The Lady Pi-
rates entertained Louisburg Junior
College in a twin bill of exhibition
plav In the first game, Georgeann
Wilke struckout e en and walked
just one batter on her way to the 2-
0 win. Tammv Newman led the
defensive charge with six putouts,
including two lunging grabs, that
helped preserved the shutout.
The Ladv Pirates scored their
two runs on aggressive base run-
ning. Lisa Coreprew started the
inning with a infield hit, then ad-
vanced to third on a two-base sacn-
ficebunt from Michelle lone- With
ine out, Wilke reached first on a
mishandled grounder down the
third base line and later advanced
to second on a delaved steal.
Newman grinded out a base hit
which scored both Coreprew and
Wilke to account for the Lady Tirate
offense.
Game two wa shortened be-
cause of a pitching injury on the
Louisburg team. The Pirates, sent
Newman to the mound in relief. In
three innings pitched, Newman
yielded four runs and just seven
hits in her first 1W2 pitchingouting.
The Pirate offense scored behind
the 2-3 batting from Chanel Htxiker
and the clutch hitting of Coreprew,
Laura Crowder and Newman. The
Ladv Pirates went on to win the
contest 12-4.
This weekend the "Girls of
Summer take their No. 6 ranking
on the road to Buies Creek, N.C, to

home appearance is scheduled for

Rowing teams
battle weather,
equipment in
home tri-meet
By Thomas Allen
Special to The East Carolinian
Intermittent thunderstorms in-
terrupted three of seven scheduled
races between rowing teams repre-
senting ECU, UNC-Wilmington and
Skidmore College on the Pamlico
River Thursday afternoon.
In the opening race, a Skidmore
novice (first year rower) men's four
defeated two no v ice ECU crews, one
bv the narrow margin of 05 seconds
and the other by 15 lengths.
In the first of two novice
women's eight oared events sched-
uled for the aftemtxm, Skid more and
the Pirates held even for the first half
of the race. A sudden squall caused
both boats to falter, but Skidmore
pulled ahead. An equipment failure
in the Bucs' boat increased the deficit
and Skidmore won by two boat
lengths.
In the men' s junior varsity fours,
Skidmore easily defeated UNC-
Wilmington. The varsity's men's
four was considerably closer as
Skidmore defeated a strong UNC-
W team by barely a boat length.
The races were staggered be-
tween small thunderstorms passing
through the area. Finally, an ap-
proaching weatherfront resulted in
the cancellation of a second women's
eight race between Skidmore and a
composite ECUUNC-W crew, a
varsitv women's four between ECU
and Skidmore and a men's eight
between Skidmore and UNC-W.
The races were held at the
Pamlico Rowing Club in Washing-
ton, N.C, where the ECUCrewClub
trains. Skidmore College visits the
club each year for their Spring Break
training session.

Helios fall victim to Cornell, 10-9
By Amy Clapp
Staff Writer
The ECU women's frisbee team joined nine other
, omen's teams in Wilmingttm, N.C, over the weekend
tor the annual Collegiate Eastern Tournament.
Plav began earlv Saturday morning with chilly
temperatures and a forceful wind. This proved to bean
advantage for the ECU team, the Helios, in their first
iime where thev met Brown University. Brown prac-
tices mdixir during the winter.
Pne two teams traded points for most oi the morn-
ng until a time cap was placed on the game. The Helios
? ere down bv a point at the cap and desperately needed
in upwind score to change the momentum of the game,
v pulled out a 10-8 win.
1 think the key to the game was thateveryoneon the
team bonded Kara Macauluso said. "We were on a
higher spiritual level
Ihe Helios next game was against Cornell Univer-
sity, the No. 2 team in the nation last year. ECU was not
intimidated in the least, as this game also went point for
point. At the half, the score was 7-5 Cornell, and ECU
Head coach Wobble, took the opportunity to pump up
the team with an inspiring speech, reminding them that
they have their own sights set on a national champion-
ship this vear.
V ith that in mind, the Helios marched on the field
and immediately scored two points The game was
capped at 8 all, and the team that SOOnd the next two
points first would win the game. The teams played
equally hard, but in the end Cornell's expenence was the
deciding factor. The Helios lost 9-10.
After two games of constant running and obstinate
defense, the Helios got a break in their next game against
Rutgers University. EC U'szone defence was umieJding
as Rutgers managed to score only three points the entire
game.
"We just ran them into the ground, they were no
match for us Meghan Curren said.
The final game of the day was forfeited by the
University of Virginia due to lack of players. That left the
Helios 3-1 for the day and poised for the semifinals
Sunday morning against rival UNC-Wilmington.
Although the game didn't begin until 11 a.m the
Helios slept through the first half. When they woke up,
they were down 1-8. Errationsranhighdunnghalftime.
"I just want to kill em Jasa McAnn said.
Although the Helios began to accomplish things
during the second half with their zone defense and
strong passing from Curran and Tammy Moose, it was
too little, too late. The final score was 15-8 Wilmington,
leaving Helios in third place for the tournament.
As the Helios returned home, everyone's thoughts
were already on a rematch ? this time with a different
ending when ECU hosts Ultimax April 4-5.

Manv people work out and
stnvefor fitness. Atthe same time,
manv of those peopledo not know
how far thev are trom their goal.
ECU's Recreational Services can
help.
Recreational Services offers
fitness assessment testing to stu-
dents, staff, faculty and their
spouses.
A fitness assessment is an
evaluation of one's fitness level.
These assessments come with a
plan for improving and main-
taining fitness. The testing takes
about one hour.
The battery of tests include
resting heart rate, blood pressure,
flexibility tests, cardiovascular
endurance evaluation, body com-
position assessment, and tests of
both muscular strength and en-
durance.
Fitness assessment tests are a
good way to begin an exercise
program and set your goals.
"I think anyone should take
advantage of this service staff
member Denise de la Sierra said.
"You have nothing to lose and a
lot to gain
An individual whose family
has a history of heart disease or
other health problemsareencour-
aged to see a physician before
beginning a program. Anyone,
regard less of any fitness level, can
take the test.

ers Jaimeson Pierce and Bridget
Kruseand Raleigh goalkeeper Laura
Crabil 1 on their toes throughout the
entire game.
Athalftime, Raleigh led 2-0 with
a goal from Michele Naylor and
Michelle Miller. The Pirates came
back and pulled ahead 3-2 when
Amy Warren and Karyn McAloon
scored early in the half. Kerri
Griffiths then scored with an assist
from Pierce.
The Raleigh dub came back
with two more goals by Naylor, but
Griffiths punched her second goal
of the game, with an assist from
Warren, past the keeper to tie the
game for the Pirates.
