ECU Board of Trustees
extinguished the rights of
smokers Thursday by voting
to restrict smoking in all cam-
pus buildings.
As a part of the trustees'
summer meeting, the group
voted 11-2 in favor of a
campuswide clean air act
which will prohibit smoking
in ail campus buildings that
are poorly ventilated or not
ventilated at ill.
"The resolution was pro-
posed by the Faculty Senate
Welfare Committee after a
number of faculty com-
plained about the quality of
air in the General Classroom

Moskop, president of the Fac-
ulty Senate.
"The resolution directs

buildings.
Trustee William Furr and
SGAPresident Courtney Jones
were the two dissenting vot-
ers, citing the cost of install-
ing a ventilation and the lack
of student input for their de-
cisions.
Jones added that student
safety was not taken into con-
sideration by other members

Racial check policy dropped
CHAMPAIGN, III. (CPS) ?
The city of Champaign dropped a
2-year-old policy of requiring mer-
chants to record the race of check
writers after some University of Illi-
nois students and local citizens ex-
pressed outrage about the practice.
The Champaign Police Depart-
ment sud that the practice helped
them identify people who wrote
worthless checks.
The university's Student Legal
Service had received six complaints
during spring semester about the
enforcement of the policy at a
Champaign bookstore, said Tho-
mas Netz, an attorney for the legal
service.
Stephen David, a graduate stu-
dent, s.iid he filed a complaint be-
cause "the practice is extremely sus-
picious
Ihe policy stated that police
would investigate bounced checks
only if the check-writer's race, sex
and birth date and the type of iden-
tification used-were written on the
check.
"Students deeply object to the
racial classification being used. Plac-
ing a racial classification on the face
of a check strikes many as insulting
and reminiscent of apartheid laws
Beta said.
"I find it appalling that a coun-
try that's supposed to be a bastion
of human rights and dignity still
uses race as a category for identifi-
cation David said before the city
rescinded the policy.
At i me bookstore, clerks used a
two-letter code to record a check-
writer's race, David noted.
Before the city voted 6-1 to drop
the policv, bookstore owner Bob
Tichenor said merchants felt they
had no choice other than record the
race of the check-writer's.
"We do what the police require
us to do. The policy is repugnant to
me, but 1 have to follow it if 1 want
to collect mv money" Tichenor
said he tries tncollect $2X I) b i S3,( 11
in worthless checks each year
Champaign Mayor Dannej
McCollum and Deputy Chief John
Gnagey defended the policy, sy.
ing it speeded the investigation of a
bounced check by narrowing the
search for the check-wnter
Champaign Police Chief
Donald Hanna told the Daily Dlini
that the state attorney neede
racial identification in order t
sue a warrant for an arrest.
But State's Attorney Th ?
Difanis said he "never required
merchants Like down the racef a
person on checks
"My only requirement i
mere is some identification of a
photo ID presented and th ??
merchant can identify the
tomer Difanis said. "1 didn't ex-
pect the merchants to provide in-
formation like race to me
The Champaign City Council
approved the policy in January is .

Opinion
Page 4, July 15, 1992
Courtney Jones proves her dedication
Despite the dark shadow cast on
the SGA by secretary Sherry Smith's
resignation, Courtney Jones has man-
aged to turn the ship around.
With her bold stature displayed at
two public meetings last
week, Jones proved that
she holds the determi-
nation and will to per-
form her duties as presi-
dent.
At the Board of
Trustees meeting, Jones
voted with only one
other member against
the proposal to ban
smoking on campus.
She demanded an
end to the ECU
bashing and a
solution to the
real problems
between
Greenville and
the University.
Jones, a non-smoker, demonstrated
her dedication to the students by stand-
ing up for smoker's rights.
Our president also voiced the stu-
dents' opinion at the local city-council
meeting. Under attack by two mem-
bers who said that ECU is responsible
for over-crowded streets in the down-
town area, Jones stood up to the coun-
cil. She demanded an end to the ECU
bashing and a solution to the real prob-
lems between Greenville and the Uni-
versity.
Past leaders have
failed in this area while
Courtney Jones now suc-
ceeds. Truly, this is testi-
mony to her strength as a
leader.
Actions such as these
prove Jones' true dedica-
tion to the needs of the
students. Although Jones
acted as all SGA presidents
should, she nonetheless deserves lauda-
tions for her staunch resistance to the
would-be abuse of students.
A summer that began with a con-
fusing scandal, now continues with
Jones' perseverance to real issues con-
fronting ECU students.

Letters To The Editor
Batchelor correct on animal rights
To the Editor:
Thumbs-up to T. Scott
Bstchelor's thoughts concerning
animal rights This well-written
article serves two important pur-
poses: to expose the truth and to
offer hope. Let me explain.
First of all, it underscores the
hypocrisy that exists within the ani-
mal rights community. Just let
?ome of these fanatical "animal lov-
ers" suffer from a deadly malady
e.g. kidney or liver disease, and
?at how favorably they would re-
ceive the potentially life-saving
contributions of a pig's heart or a
baboon's liver. I am sure their per-
spectives would change once such
a situation affected them directly.
It's as if other animals lower
in nature's hierarchy take priority
over Man as long as it's some other
man suffering and not themselves.
Also I personally know sev-
eral of these so-called "activists"
who enjoy a good pig-picking and
seafood dinner just as much as the
hunters and fishermen enjoy gath-
ering these animals for our con-
sumption.
Maybe it's just that these
hyper-sensitive individuals don't
really know what they believe. I
believe they are confused.
Secondly, Batchelor's article
brilliantly articulates the conser-
vative side of this controversial is-
sue. Did you readers out mere catch
that buzz word: conservative. Yes,
it's true. A conservative point of
view isn't often given in The Ernst
Carolinian. Perhaps, in this regard,
even our newspaper deserves a
thumbs-up!

Maxwell's Silver Hammer
'92 Election plagued with non-issues
By Scott
Maxwell
Editorial
Columnist
Oh, great 1992 is shaping up to
be another election year packed with
non-issues
A non-issue is anything that
politicians and the press pretend is a
serious matter worthy of your ex-
tended consideration, but which is in
fact a silly, time-wasting diversion
Most recently, thanks to Repub-
lican operative Floyd Brown ? the
charming fellow who brought you the
Willie Horton commercial in 1988 ?
Clinton'sallegedaffairhas resurfaced.
Apparently not convinced he has
stooped low enough. Brown also of-
fers voters a chance to hear Flowers'
doctored tapes of conversations with
Clinton
Assuming it even happened,
Clinton's affair is a non-issue. (And a
recycled non-issue, at that.) There ex-
ists no evidence that Clinton has had
an affair, only rumors and altered
tapes
If we will convict a man on the
strength of rumors, let's convict
George Bush for his role in the "Octo-
ber Surprise Iran-Contra, his own
alleged affair, and so on Then worry
about Clinton. Otherwise, bury the
story.
While we're on the subject of
Clinton, we may as well consider the
other two non-issues surrounding
him: draft dodging and drug use
Despite Clinton's on-again, off-
again draft registrabon, he's nght that
he did fairly enter his name for the
draft. And, when he did, he really
didn't know whether he would be
drafted. Given the Nixon
administrahon's unpredictability and
dishonesty, no one knew wha t would
happen Clinton was in the dark Just
like everyone else. End of non-issue
Now, as fbrClinton'sdance with
thedevilweed after thinking about
it, I actually believe Clinton's curious
tale of trying marijuana without in-
haling Clinton seems like exactly the
sort of person who would have given
in to peer pressure enough to pretend
to smoke the joint. And he seems like
exactly the sort of person who
Non-issues work to
the benefit of all
politicians, even the
ones on the receiving
end. That way they
can postpone
admitting that they
don't really know
what the heck
they're doing, or
how to solve our
country's problems.
wouldn t have the courage to really
rry it
In any event. Clinton's make-
believe "experiment" with reefer
seems to have degraded neither his
mental functioning nor his antipathy
toward others who do today essen-
tially wha t he did a couple of decades
ago. He's parroted the anti-drug line
as much as anyone else. So. End of
non-issue
On the Republican side, the big-
gest non-issue of the year has been
Vice President Quayie's spelling.
Quayle's incorrect spelling of
"potatoe"?er, "potato"?was amus-
ing, but also a non-issue.
Quayle's "family values" silli-
ness is also a non-issue Everyone's
for family values, and everyone's for
families Once you get into specific
definitions of "family values dis-
agreement may anse, but Quayie has
avoided specific definitions for pre-
cisely that reason As long as he does,
it's a non-issue Ignore it.
Quayle's inability to lead the
country is basically a non-issue, too.
Senously The president isn't as im-
portant as we make him out to be.
We'd get along fine without one Bet-
ter, perhaps. If Quayie became presi-
dent, we could all ignore him and
thereby render him harmless End of
non-issue
Perot on gays non-issue Read
what he said Perot claimed only that
he would not appoint a homosexual
toa high post if the nomination would
become divisive and counter-produc-
tive That may be the nght approach,
or it may be (as I thmk) the wrong
approach In neither case is it evi-
dence that Perot has anything against
gays
What is an issue here is that
Perot apparently would discriminate
against politically unpopular people,
whatever the reason they were politi-
cally unpopular But to accuse him of
homophobia is unjustified
Non-issues work to the benefit
of all politicians, even the ones on the
recaving end. That way they can post-
pone admitting that they don't really
know what the heck they're doing or
how to solve our country's problems.
They can also spend lots of time say-
ing "Let's get back to the issues" with-
out actually having to get back to the
issues
We deserve better, but we must
take the responsibility for making
things better To make things better,
we must identify and ignore the non-
issues and pay attention only to what
candidates say on the issues. And if
they say nothing, vote for Mickey
Mouse. It may take them a while, but
they'll get the point
Campus Spectrum
Court's abortion decision on target
By Heather Lockey
Plrerident ECU Student for Life
When I opened my East Carolin-
ian yesterday, I was slapped in the
face with yet another editorial com-
plaining about the Supreme Court's
ruling in the Pennsylvania Case. I feel
the ruling was long overdue.
Abortion is the third most com-
monly performed operation today.
However, until last week, the abor-
tion industry was virtually unregu-
lated.
Let's suppose you decided to
have elective surgery. There are con-
siderable risks to your physical and
psychological well-being involved in
the operation; however, the doctor is
under no obligation to tell you of these
risks unless you ask. Suppose you
(XKeCstJOWlAWtT.
ulsdWoiMiaa W
don't ask, and the doctor, afraid you
might change your mind, doesn't tell
you. You go ahead with the surgery
and, due to complications, you lose
your foot
This is how abortion has been
for twenty years. Abortion, contrary
to popular belief, is not without risks.
It is a disservice to women not to
inform them of this.
Why shouldn't women be in-
formed about fetal development and
alternatives to abortion? Many do not
know that the unborn child's heart
begins to beat at twenty-four days.
They are unaware that by eight weeks,
the fetus is a tiny, completely formed
human being with all the organs and
systems necessary for life. The only
things it needs are nutrition and time
to grow.
Many women are unaware that
there are families willing to pay tor
their expenses, including prenatal
care, so that they may adopt the child.
What is unconstitutional about
a woman using her freedom of choke,
armed with all the facts and alterna-
tives, to decide whether or not to have
an abortion?
Doesn't she deserve twenty-
tour hours, without the pressure of
being in the abortion clinic, to make
this unalterable decision?
As for parental consent, a mi-
nor can not take an aspirin at school
without parental permission A doc-
tor can not set a minor's broken bone
without parental consent
Abortion is certainly a bigger
decision than these.
The court was correct to restrict
abortion.
Hopefully, next time it will over-
turn Roe v. Wade and restore every
person's right to lire.

'Lend Me A Tenor laugh riot
By joe Horst
Assistant Entertainment Editor
VVh.it makes a farce great?
Slapstick, an ear for comedy,
mistaken identities, bodies in the
closet ? all these are needed if the-
ater goers are to leave the house
laughing.
"Lend Me A Tenor the East
Carolina Playhouse's second
mainstage in their Summer Theater
season, uses these ? and more ?
to perform a wonderfully enter-
taining piece guaranteed to brin
the house down.
"Lend Me A Tenor" is the sioty
of a theater-owner's assistant who
is pressed into playing the lead in
their performance of Verdi's OtcUo.
When the real tenor shows up to
plav the part, the fun goes into high
gear and the laughs are non-stop.
Flying fruit, mistaken identities be-
tween the sheets and a hilanous
recap of the whole play at the end
all combine to leave the audience
on their feet, cheering and applaud-
ing.
Steven Gilbom, playing the the-
ater owner, Saunders, steals the
show with his neurotic and egotis-
tical character. Gilbom has excel-
lent comic timing and has many of
the best lines in the play. One of his
better lines is when his assistant,
Max, played by Pans Peet, suggests
that Max should play the tenor.
Gilbom pauses with incredu-
lity, lwks at Peet in disbelief and
delivers thefollowingline perfectly:
"You Othello? Big black guy?"
Peet also teams well with Wil-
liam McNulty, who plays the Ital-
ian tenor, Stupendo. McNulty has
the accent down to a tee and looks
honestlv confused when the hi jinks
roll into high gear
McN'ultv's best scene is the in-
nuerklivfilled conversation w'ithhis
co-tar Diana, played by Elizabeth
Towmend Diana wants Stupendo
ID introduce her to his pnxJucer
friends; he thinks she's a member
of the world's oldest profession.
This duet runs for five minutes
and leaves the audience roanng
with laughter.
Last, but not least, Peet gives a
consistent performance as the
bumbling assistant He has thedead-
pan ability to play the perfect
straight-man; his scenes with
Gilbom remind one of the old Ab-
bot and Costello mu tines.
"Lend Me A Tenor" provides
the perfect antidote to these dog
davs of summer: laughter. That
tried and true aphorism of it being
the best medicine is proved once
again in this hilarious and zany
mmp in the backstage world.

In the Orient, one's honor is
considered to be more important
than life itself. Ancient Samuri war-
riors would rather face the blade of
their own sword than to have the
family name disgraced.
Times have changed and it ap-
pears that people still honor names
like they use to ? none more spe-
cifically than KISS. The former face-
painted rock 'n' roll warriors have
recaptured their control of their
musical senses after jumping on the
Chicago-style band wagon of releas-
ing album after album after album
with moderate success.
The latest in a line of 22 albums
is Revenge, a 12-track release that
contains a tribute to former drum-
mer Eric Carr. The two-minute track
features Carr in a 1981 drum solo?
the only one he ever recorded. While
the solo is moving in its memory of
Carr, the highlight of the track ?
and quite possibly the whole album
? was the solo's lead-in that
brought back memories of "Para-
site" and "Shout It Loud" (even
though Bruce Kulick's guitar was
dubbed in on the original track).
Gene Simmons, the only re-
maining original KISS member,
combines with Paul Stanley on the
lead vocals, bass and rhythm gui-
tar, respectively, to produce a
work that may be as successful as
thel975tripleplatinumAfir album.
Simmons' harsh, melodic voice
immortalizes "Unholy" and
Argent's song, "God Gave Rock 'N'
Roll To You 11 The tongue-wield-
ing madman serves as a link be-
tween the KISS of old and new, and
his continued presence in the band
allows the KISS faithful to hope for
a return of the paint and costumes.
"Unholy" headlines the new
release with questionabl e lyrics and
a crashing sound. Taken as a flip-
Photo court??y Mercury EnUrtainmant
KISS's new album, Revenge, brings back their legendary 1970s sound
to delight their fans with a "modem outlook
side to Bible-weilding extremists,
the track features Simmons singing
from an anti-Christ point of view.
He sings that he is the
"incubuslaying the egg in
youbut you are the beastyou
created me on the day that you
were bom
But the biggest surpnse about
the album is how the members
molded together to recapture the
group's legendary 1970s xund.
Eric Singer assumed the drum
duties followingCarr's unfortunate
demise. While his style is not like
Carr's or Nikko McBrain's of Iron
Maiden, Singer adds his own touch
to a new era of old KISS-style rock
'n' roU.
KISS is definitely looking for
the Revenge album to spark a new
fire toward their grass roots with a
"modern outlook The group's
members have changed, but the
ageless KISS style lives on ? with
great honor.

"Lend Me A Ienor" provides
toe perfect antidote to these dog
days of summer: laughter. Ihat
tried .nut true aphorism of it being
the best medicine is proved once
again in this hilarious and zany
romp in toe backstage world
In the Orient, one's honor is
considered to be more important
than life itself. Ancient Samun war-
riors would rather face the blade of
their own sword than to have the
family name disgraced.
Times have changed and it ap-
pears that people still h inor names
like they use to ? none more spe-
cifically than KISS. The former face-
painted rock n' roll warriors have
recaptured their control of their
musical senses after jumping on the
Chicagivstylebandwagonof releas-
ing album after album after album
with mixlerate success.
The latest in a line of 22 albums
is Rnvnge, a 12-track release that
contains a tribute to former drum-
mer Eric Carr. The two-minute track
featuresCarr ina 1981 drum solo ?
the only one he ever recorded. While
toe solo is moving in its memory of
Carr, the highlight of the track ?
and quite possiblv the wholealbum
? was the solo's lead-in that
brought back memories of "Para-
site" and "Shout It Loud" (even
though Brace Kulick's guitar was
dubbed in on the original track).
Gene Simmons, the only re-
maining original KISS member,
combines with Paul Stanley on the
lead vocals, bass and rhvthm gui-
tar, respectively, to produce a
work that may be as successful as
the 1975tnpleplaunumUn album.
Simmons' harsh, melodic voice
immortalizes "Unholy" and
Argent's song, "C kxt Gave Rix'k 'N'
Roll To You 11 The tongue-wield-
mg madman serves as a link be-
tween the KISS of old and new, and
his continued presence in the band
allows the KISS faithful to hope for
a return of the paint and costumes.
"Unholy" headlines the new
release with questionable lyrics and
a crashing sound. Taken as a fiip-
Pholo courtesy Mercury Entertainment
KISS's new album, Revenge, brings back their legendary 1970s sound
to delight their fans with a "modern outlook
side to Bible-weilding extremists
toe track features Simmons singing
from an anti-Chnst point of view.
He sings that he is the
"incubuslaving the egg in
youbut you are the beastyou
created me on the day to.it you
were born
But the biggest surprise about
the album is how toe members
molded together to recapture the
group's legendary l47iS sound.
Eric Singer assumed the drum
duties followingCarr's unfortunate
demise. While his style is not like
Carr's or ikko McBrain's of Iron
Maiden, Singer adds his own touch
to a new era of old KlSS-styte rock
'n' roll.
KISS is definitely lookil I I

fire toward their grass roots with a

Desire to excel in athletics pushes teens toward violence
RALEIGH (AD ? Pressures
on teenathletes tosucceed can some-
times lead to violence or abnormal
behavior on the playing field, ex-
perts on sports behavior say.
"Everybody sees sports now as
a potential avenue to enhance their
economic and social status said
John Silva, a professor of sports sci-
enceat the University of North Caro-
lina at Chapel Hill.
"It starts early and most people
realize that by 11 or 12 years old the
selection process becomes very hos-
tile he said. "That's when kids
start getting cut f mm teams and the
parents start feeling the pressure of
mavbe their son or daughter not
playing a sport in high school.
"There is a real domino effect
here he said. "That age of 11,12or
13 is a very, very significant win-
dow. There is more than emotional
investments. There is also the social
prestige of why 1 want my child to
be successful in sports. That's a
prettv volatile equation
Rick Strunk, a spokesman for
the North Carolina High School
Athletic Association, said the orga-
nization representingmore than 300
schools statewide tries to guard
against such thinking.
"One of the things that we have
tried to hammer home (to the ath-
letes) is that less than 1 percent go
on to play college Strunk said.
"That window is extremely nar-
row . The thing that hurts me is when
1 see a 12-year-old kid mat is 4-foot-
8 and he says he's going to play in
the NBA
Two violent acts surrounding
North Carolina baseball games the
past two months may resulted from
such pressures, behavior experts
said.
In May, a Whiteville man was
charged with cutting the throat of a
rival youth league coach. Officials
said the two coaches had argued
over a baseball game their teams of
8- and 10-year-olds had played.
Richard Blackwell, 45, pleaded
guilty to an assault charge. He won't
spend any time in jail but, as part of
his punishment, a judge banned
Blackwell from coaching youth
league baseball until 1994. pick on just sports said John Wil-
Last month, a Harnett County son, a professor of sports sociology
teen-ager was arrested on assault at Duke University. "These are
charges after he was accused of hit- trends that are occurring in society.
"One of the things we have to
hammer home (to the athletes)
is that less than one percent go
on to play college

"When it comes to violence it
has gotten way out of hand said
Glenn Barham, the veteran umpire
who was hit by the bat. "1 don't
know what their (teens) mind set is.
1 don't know where they get their
opinions. I don't know if it comes
from poor coaching or what

The readiness in which people
will resort to violence to resolve
arguments is probably increasing.
mmm Sports is not
immune to
these
trends
Silva
said abnor-
mal baseball
behavior is
often
learned by
"? youths who
watch managers and their favorite
players on television kick dirt on
umpires or stand inches apart, jaw-
ing about a call.
"I think there is a problem with
the erosion of respect for author-
ity said Silva, who has done ex-
tensive studies of violence in hockey
and basketball. "Not only are these
acts viewed as legitimate, but they
are expected (in baseball). You have
passive acceptance of this behav-
ior. You have role models that will
act out this behavior and receive
minimal punishment This is no
deterrent whatsoever.
Someone actingoutagainst
a sports official was abnormal 20
years ago he said. "You got la-
beled by the media as being a bad
sport"
But Silva and Wilson feel that
today increased salaries for profes-
sional athletes and changing social
values have skewed behavior for
youths and their parents.
"Money is certainly an issue
Silva said. "Being successful in
sports professionally can totally se-
cure you and several other mem-
bers of your famiiy for life. There is
greater economic pressure involved
here.
"The fabric of society has also
changed over the last 20 years he
added. "I think we have more situ-
ations where children are being
brought up under less structured
environments
"People tend to focus on the
money issue Wilson said. "But I
think a lot of it has to do with the
creation of a labor market for pro-
fessional athletes. There has been
an expansion of sports opportuni-
ties, and this has created pressures
on colleges, high schools and even
little leagues to function as farm
teams
Sportsmanship also is being
taught less and less by parents, they
said.
Silva is optimistic recent poor
sportsmanship will change.
"It is going to come back
around Silva said. "People realize
we have to provide some structure
and guidance. We have to have
positive socialization experiences
In May, the high school asso-
ciation raised the fine for on-the-
field brawls to $500 ? largest in
NCHSAA history and a hefty price
for a school to pay, Strunk said.
Strunk said no particular inci-
dent led to the increased fine, but
fighting had been a problem re-
cently in other states.

IOC overrules U.N Yugoslavia gets nod for Barcelona
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (AT)
?Yugoslav athletes haveachieved
a small Olympic victory even be-
fore the games begin: They will be
allowed to participate despite strict
United Nations sanctions that have
barred them from most interna-
tional sporting events.
But the European and world
champion men's basketball team
will not compete, having been
banned from the trials because of
the international sanctions aimed at
pressuring the truncated country to
end the ethnic warfare.
Other Yugoslav athletes will
compete under the neutral Olym-
pic flag and anthem. That compro-
mise was accepted by the Yugoslav
Olympic Committee, the Interna-
tional Olympic Committee,
Barcelona organizers and the Span-
ish government.
While the decision to allow
Yugoslav athletes to compete was a
welcomediversion for Yugoslavia's
avid sports fans, the inability of the
basketball team to compete was a
bitter blow.
"WeCanOnly Feel Sorry read
theheadlineoftheVecemjeNovosti
daily Saturday. But "basketball will
not die in this country it quoted
Zeljko Obradovic, the team'scoach,
as saying.
Al though many of the best bas-
ketball players now play for the
former Yugoslav republic that has
become independent Croatia, Yu-
goslavia was expected to field a
strong team.
It can now expect the best re-
sults in water polo and handball for
men and in basketball for women.
In Barcelona, Yugoslav athletes
also will compete in track and field,
table tennis, women's handball,
wrestling, cycling and shooting.
The agreement to allow
Yugoslavs to compete in the Olym-
pics ended weeks of uncertainty
caused by theU.N. sanctions against
Yugoslavia, a former six-republic
federation now reduced to just
Serbia and Montenegro. The sanc-
tions, designed to punish Serbia for
fomenting violence in Bosnia-
Herzegovina, included a sports boy-
cott.
IOC director-general Francois
Carrard said the IOC wants to en-
sure that other parts of former Yu-
goslavia not yet recognized by the
Olympic movement ? Bosnia-
Herzegovina in particular ? can
also send athletes to Barcelona.
Bosnian athletes would be af-
filiated with the Independent Team,
he said.
But the Bosnian news agency
BH Press reported Friday that offi-
cials in the besieged capital of
Sarajevo protested over the deci-
sion to allow Yugoslav athletes to
enter the Barcelona Olympics.
"Being a host to the Winter
Olympics in 1984, Sarajevo has a
right to express its bitterness and

issue a strong protest over the deci-
sion thatallowed the country which
is committing a genocide over our
country to participate in the Olym-
pics Sarajevo officials said in a
letter to IOC president Juan Anto-
nio Samaranch.
Macedonia, another former
Yugoslav republic, will decide Mon-
day whether to enter the Olympics
along with Yugoslavs, according to
published reports.
Under the terms brokered by
Samaranch, the Yugoslav athletes
will not be representing Yugosla-
via. They will be represented by the
Olympic flag and be known as the
Independent Team.
