Compiled by JeH Becker. Taken from CPS and
other campus newspaper.
lhe State Board of Com-
munity Colleges approved a
15.2 percent tuition hike man-
dated bv the .C. General As-
sembly, increasing full-time
tuition for in-state community
college students from$lM per
quarter to185.50 per quarter.
The tuition increase, the
fourth consecutive and the
seventh in ID years for com-
munity colleges, raised credit-
hour costs from11.50 per
hour to (13.25 per hour.
" I he tuition increase will
effect some people, how manv
people we .io not know and
will not ever know said Dr.
Charles Russell, president of
Pitt Community College.
"A number of people may
never come because of money
Those people mav have come
if scholarships were avail-
able
At the same time, the
board was forced to decrease
the number of state-funded
scholarships from 50 to 503
because of low interest rates
and increased tuition.
In the past, the State
Board authorized 950 scholar-
ships at $3n0 per year said
Mate Board C hairman William
Simpson.
"But, with interest rates
down and tuition rates up. we
had to decrease the number of
scholarships or decrease the
amount of each one. We chose
to offer fewer scholarships ?
503 scholarships at $556.50
eaih but keep the amount
high enough for full tuition
According to Bob Scott,
community college system
president, out-of-state tuition
will remain at $1,505 per quar-
ter for full-time students and
$107.50 per credit hour; fees
? Congress expands financial aid to
college students, but there may not
be enough money in the budget to
meet current funding levels.

Students paying tuition at Pitt Community College will have to cough
up a little more this fall as tuition increases to $185 50 per quarter
for occupational extension
courses will increase from $30
per course to $35 per course
"Needless to sav, no one
was happv with the choices
they had to make, Scott said
"Both decisions have a
negative impact on our stu-
dents
Simpson said the General
Assembly had some hard bud-
get decisions to make.
"They had to find a way to
fund our increasing enroll-
ments which were up more
than 6 percent over the previ-
ous year Simpson said.
"Unfortunately, that
meant another tuition increase.
I'm sorrv the burden is falling
on our students. After all, they
are the ones our community
colleges were created to serve
Simpson said he is alsocon-
cerned that the decrease in state
svholarship funds will add to
the burden. However, he said
the 38 colleges in the C. Com-
munitv College System have
strong UKal scholarship pro-
grams and students who need
help can still get it.
WASHINGTON (CPS)?
After two years of debate, Con-
gress has approved a massive
bill to expand student financial
aid and other higher education
programsdespite warnings that
the nation's budget woes could
undermine many of its key ob-
jectives.
"It's a bittersweet victory
for students said Selena Dong,
legislative director for the
United States Student Associa-
tion. While the bill permits a
major expansion of Pell Grants,
for example, congress may have
trouble just maintaining current
funding levels, she said.
The Higher Education Act
reauthorization bill would raise
the maximum Pell Grant from
$2,400 to $3,100 next yeac and
permit more aid to middle-in-
come and part-time students.
But Congress still must appro-
priate Tell funds based on pro-
jected revenue and budget tar-
i'ets Already, Done said, mem-
bers are talking about a cut from
$2,400 ? not an increase ? to
meet 1593 budget targets.
White the HEA bil. contains
manv laudable goals, "we may
be talking about pie in the sky"
when it comes to financial aid,
Dong said. She also chided con-
gress for defeating a plan to
make Pel! Grants an entitle-
ment. "Many poor students
won't be helped by this bill
she added.
President Bush was ex-
pected to sign the HEA bill in
late July.
Overall, one measure allows
for nKxlest growth in manv stu-
dent aid programs?again, bar-
ring budget constraints -and re-
flects considerablecompromise
between separate House and
Senate bills debated during the
past two vears.
The bill recommends mod-
erate growth for Pell Grants
through 1997, when the maxi-
mum grant could reach as high
as $3,700.
Middle-income students
with family income up to $42,000
ayearcould receive aid, and the
government also would remove
home or family equity as a fac-
tor in eligibility.
For student loans, the bill
increases maximum Stafford
loan amounts from $2,625 to
$3,fW for second-yea r students,
$4,1X10 to $5,006 for third- and
fourth-vear students and $7,500
to $8,500 for graduate students.
The HEA bill also contains
a controversial direct loan pro-
posal in which schools would
begin to replace banks in the
loan process. Up to $500 million
will be available for the first vear
of a five-year experiment
Capitol Hill aides say as
manv as 400 schools could par-
ticipate in the direct loan ex-
periment.
Sponsors of the direct loan
concept say it will save money
bv eliminating the subsidies
paid to banks as well as the
banks' own administrative costs
in handling the loans. But the
White House balked at the idea

College graduates are en-
tering a job market unable to
accomrrKxjate them for the sec-
ond consecutive year.
According to Employment
Security Commission Chairman
Ann Q. Duncan, the 0.8 percent
increase in the state unemploy-
ment rate from Mav to June re-
sulted from the influx of college
graduates.
"A lot of young folks get-
ting out of schxil are finding it
tough to get that first job
Duncan said. "The job opportu-
nities that are normally avail-
able this time of year justhaven't
been there
The North Carolina unem-
ployment rate increased from
5.7 percent to 65 percent from
Mav to June. Don Carrington,
deputy director of labor
marketing's information divi-
sion, also attributed the increase
to college graduates.
"Normally, there is an in-
crease in jobs to accommodate
graduates Carrington said. "In
this particular year, job seekers
increased but job openings
didn't
Carrington said theextended
slump in the job market puts ad-
ditional stress on students.
"Many graduates put off en-
tering the job market last year by-
going to graduate school he
said. "Most can't afford to do
that two years in a row
James Westmoreland, direc-
tor of ECU's Career Services, said
an important part of his job is
"keeping students from getting
discouraged
Westmoreland said students
graduating in May of 1993 should
register with Career Services by
Sept. 1. Students graduating in
December should open a fi le as
soon as possible.
"We keep a file on hand
with 10 copies of a students'
resume, three registration cards
and a list of faculty and job
references he said. "We offer
resume and interview work-
shops and make referrals to
possible employers for stu-
dents
Westmoreland said the in-
crease in unemployed college
graduates is not a new trend.
"People don't realize that
the job market has been getting
more and more competitive for
the last few years he said. "A

According to Carrington,
the June unempkwment rate
for males age 20 to 24 was 9.4

Student vegetarians find campus dining, proper diet hard
AUSTIN, Texas (CPS)?A
vegetarian life-style isn't easy ?
especially on campus. Without
planning a proper diet, vegetar-
ians mav have trouble getting ad-
equatenourishment,and students
who eat at campus dining halls
may not be able to get enough
options in their daily menus.
"Many people don't realize
how difficult it is to be a vegetar-
ian, "said Jeanne Freeland -Graves,
a professor of home economics.
Cutting out red meat is not only requirement
An informal survey at the Uni-
versity of Texas' four dining halls
indicated that between 10 percent
and 15 percent of students don't
eat red meat or chicken.
Melvyn Stiriss, who teaches
an informal class on vegetarian-
ism, said new vegetarians needs
to be especially careful because
there are many things that they
should know before they stop eat-
ing meat.
"Some people feel like they
can just quit eating meat and eat
what's left. Itdoesn'texactly work
like that Stiriss said.
Even if they know what they
should eat, students can have a
hard timepursumgvegetarian life-
styles if they eat at university fa-
I
cilities that can't provide the foods
they need.
Harley Fisk, chef of the Divi-
sion of Housing and Food, said
the university's dining halls pro-
videalternative vegetarian entrees
in slightly more than two-thirds
of all the meals they serve.
But he also said that variety in
vegetarian menus was limited be-
t
cause many dining-facility patrons
do not like non-meat dishes.
Because there are varying de-
grees of vegetarians ? ranging
from lacto-ovo vegetarians, who
eat eggs, dairy products and plant
foods, to vegans, who eat only
plant foods,?those in the stricter
categories may find their choices
narrowed.
"We provide a large number
of items mat vegetarians can eat,
depending on the typof vegetar-
ian you're trying to reach Fisk
said. "Vegans are among those
more difficult to be satisfied. We
have options, but they're not as
varied.
"It's difficult to feed any very
small group of people he added.
"You have to understand, if I put
out a pan of stir-fried tofu and it
sat untouched for about two hours,
you can imagine what it would
look like

Removing ordinance good idea
Controversy erupted last week at the
local town council meeting when propo-
nents of a new downtown bar went to
battle against an old city
ordinance.
An unnamed business
owner decided he wanted
to start a new nightclub in
the downtown section of
town; however, a city ordi-
nance prohibits the place-
ment of any new bars
within five-hundred feet of
any current drinking establishments.
The question is: Why?
No city council has the right to pro-
hibit any tvpe of establishments as long
The council acted
correctly in voting
to eliminate the
troublesome 500-
feet requirement.
Such an ordinance also adds to the
problem of drunk driving. If bars are
prohibited from opening downtown,
more will open away from
downtown. Most likely
those new bars will be out-
side of walking distance of
most ECU students. Thus,
more students will likely
drive while intoxicated.
Obviously the ordi-
nance is both unfair and
dangerous. The council
acted correctly in voting to eliminate the
troublesome 500-feet requirement.
Because of the absence of an at-large
representative, the issue must be re-voted
The instant Ross Perot dropped
out of the presidential race, everyone
wanted to know whether his former
supporters would vote for Bill Clinton,
George Bush, or neither.
Those of you who, like me, find
neither of those alternatives appeal-
ing ought to know that you still have
a third choice.
Actually, you have lots of
"third" choices, among them come-
dian Pat Paulson and his running
mate, Tiny Tim But a more serious
alternative is the Libertarian Party,
whose presidential Candida te is Andre
Marrou Marrou's running mate is
named Nancy Lord.
Let me note up front that I don t
endorse the Libertarians There are
lots of things about them I don't like
But there are also lots of things about
them that make them worth consider-
ing as a third choice As a sort of
public service, because I believe the
media shamefully ignore third par-
ties in general, F offer the following
introduction to the Libertarians
One of the first things you no-
tice about Libertarian beliefs is how
mainstream most of them are (Ignore
George Will, who recently did a
clumsy job of painting Andre Marrou
as a latter-day LeninThe Libertar-
lans'guiding principle is a simple one,
drawn directly from documents like
the Declaration of Independence and
the Constitution: government should
keep the hell out of your life, period
Libertarians believe that gov-
ernment has exactly two purposes: to
protect our rights and to protect
against invasion That's it (And, for
what it's worth, that w precisely the
kind of government the oft-invoked
Founding Fathers had in mind )
Consequently, Libertarians be-
lieve in small government And un-
like certain presidents I could men-
tion, they really mean it Libertarians
visualize government as a provider of
services, and, in theiropinion, private
industries could provide most of those
services for less money Typically, only
people who actua lly used the services
would pay for them
Libertarians would eliminate
the personal income tax (Don't scoff.
I've looked at the numbers It can be
done.)
Libertarians favor the right to
choose abortion, but they oppose tax-
payer funding of abortions
Libertarians would cease all
overseas military expenditures, sav-
ing (by their estimates) $150 billion
per year ? about half of the present
military budget
Libertarians would end the
government's huge subsidies of busi-
nesses such as farms and railroads, in
their opinion, a business that can't
make it without government help,
shouldn't make it
Libertarians would end govern-
ment-funded welfare Private chan-
ties are expected to fill in
Libertarians believe strongly in
the free market However, they op-
pose monopolies ? including gov-
ernment monopolies such as the Post
Office ? and polluting, which they
consider, in a broad sense, an infringe-
ment on others' rights
Libertarians oppose gun con-
trol Someoppose waiting periods and
other such measures and some don't,
however, all support the right of an
individual to own a firearm.
Libertarians oppose the war on
drugs, since, in their view, no c?ne has
a right to control what substances an-
other person may ingest They're also
concerned that the ug war is turn-
ing America into a police state
Libertarians seek to end gov-
ernment licensing of most professions,
including doctors and day care pro-
viders Licensing is one of the services
Libertarians think should be
privatized let private rating serices
like Consumer Reports duke it out, they
say
Libertarians would end govern-
ment-subsidized housing and would
sharply curtail housing regulations.
In fact, Libertanans would end
most regulations, not just in the hous-
ing industry They see regulation as a
counterproductive government intru-
sion into the market Fraud is another
matter Libertarians decry regulation,
but they don't believe that that gives
businesses the freedom to lie to con-
sumers about what they're getting
While I don't endorse the Liber-
tarian Parry, I can't help thinking that
they'd do our government a lot of
good For Libertarians, small govern-
ment and low taxes are matters of
principle, not political expediency In
a year when principle seems singu-
larly lacking, even by America's al-
ready low standards, that's a big plus
for them
1 wouldn't want to see Libertar-
ians running things 1 have funda-
mental disagreements with them But
a strong Libertarian presence in the
government ? let us say a quarter to
a third of Congress, and perhaps an
occasional Libertarian president ?
would help keep the DerruHrrats and
Republicans honest, it nothing else
Keep Libertarian candidate
Andre Marrou in mind when you head
to the ballot box this November Er.

Letters To The Editor
Animal activist
clears up issue
To the Editor:
As I long time animal rights
activist, 1 take strong issue with re-
cent articles by T. Scott Batchelor
and Tracy Roberts. The two express
disdain for animal rights philoso-
phy, yet clearly do not understand
that which they criticize. Let me
clear up a few points.
While no one can speak for all
animal rights activists, 1 believe I do
speak for the mainstream. We do
not, by any means, place baboons
above humans, or even equal.
We do believe that the feel-
ings of non-human animals count,
and that animal suffering shouldn't
be ignored. The philosophy that
"animais are ours to use" is, we
argue, the product of human arro-
gance.
The protests over the baboon-
to-human liver transplant are fu-
eled by fear that it may lead to large-
scale imprisonment of primates in
"spare part" farms, something that
stinks of Auschwitz. That is the is-
sue.
Batchelor's and Roberts' pre-
sentation of the issue as being one
human versus one baboon shows
they haven't gathered much infor-
mation before running their pens.
Of course one human matters
more that one baboon. It is the pre-
cedent that the protestors find de-
plorable.
I also must comment on Rob-
erts' charge of hypocrisy over some
"activists" enjoying a pig picking. I
agree that there can be no rational
discrimination between "food" and
"non-food" animals.
That is why the more commit-
ted activists, such as I , adopt veg-
etarianism and discontinue buying
leather products. However, most
omnivorous humans have cut-off
points on the evolutionary scale and
do not eat animals who are consid-
ered "higher
It is not hypocritical for these
people to protest an event that could
open the flood gates to a new cat-
egory of animal exploitation ? one
involving primates and imprison-
ment.
Animal rights philosophy,de-
spite a lot of hard work by activists,
is still poorly understood.
Unfortunately, media cover-
age of animal rights activities shows
footage or pictures of protestors and
listsgrievancesbut seldom explains.
Thus Batchelor and Roberts
are not totally to blame for their
ignorance (most blatantly exposed
by their statements that the philoso-
phy puts non-humans before hu-
mans).
However, as a journalist,
Batchelor ought to consider it a re-
sponsibility to gather information
before editorializing.

It would seem almost impossible
to watch television,read a newspaper or
magazine, visit a physician's office, or
wal k across campus without encounter-
ing matenals concerning AIDS There
are pamphlets, booklets, news stones,
posters, public service announcements
? you name it ? counseling the public
cm the nature of this disease. Yet nation-
wide the infection rate continues to ns
This is perplexing
Imagine for a moment that you
have just been through your annual
medical physical Your doctor sits you
down in his office and tells you that at
your age, with the foods you consume
and the limited level of physical activity
in which you engage, you are a pome
candidate for heart disease. Or worse,
your doctor miorms you that some block-
age of your arteries has already set in,
and that your cholesterol level is ex-
tremely elevated
With this information you now
have a personal choice You can either
begin a healthier diet and start exercis-
ing regularly to decrease the probability
of developing heart disease, or continue
your unhealthy life-style and take your
chances Which would you do? Logi-
cally, you would take the risk-reducing
course of action.
Now back to AIDS As you may
be aware, the eighth International Con-
ference tin AIDS opened Sunday in
Amsterdam, Netherlands The Raleigh
Sews and Obsenrr reported Mond ay that
there were "conflicting visions" at the
conference of how to stop the spread of
the disease
Conflicting visions7 Incredible'
The answer to this question is simple:
the rate of transmission of the virus
could be decimated by refraining from
or modifying those behaviors which p ut
individuals at high risk. What are some
of these behaviors and nsk gn ups? Let's
look at some of the statistics
According to data compiled at
the end of 1989, 60 percent of AIDS
victims were homosexual, 21 percent
were intravenous drug users, 7 percent
were homosexual or bisexuals who use
intravenous drugs, and 5 percent of the
cases were contracted through hetero-
sexual con tact. Th us, a pproxima te ly 93
of AIDS cases are related to behavior,
either engaging in unprotected sex or
using infected hypodermic needles The
remaining 7 percent of the cases ac-
count for blood transfusions, infants bom
to infected mothers, hemophiliac and
"other
In other words, AIDS is largely
(but not completely) a disease of life-
style. For example, it is estimated that
over 50 percent of homosexuals in San
Francisco have AIDS or havetested posi-
tive for HTV. This is by no means an
indictment of the gay and lesbian com-
munity as a whole. Yet it does point to an
inordinate and tragically unnecessary
amount of irresponsibility inextricable
linked to sexual behavior And ief s face
it, having unprotected sex, especially
promiscuous unprotected sex, is like
gambling with your life
Many people who read this col-
umn will agree with me and then say,
referring to these victims of AIDS, "they
deserve it. they got what they asked
tor " Wrong Absolutely no one "de-
serves" to contract the disease That
many at tnose infected with the virus
willingly and knowingly exposed them-
selves to harm should not in the least
diminish the sympathy and compas-
sion we feel for them Why, then, do I
make the distinction7 The answer is
simple Prevention.
Oftentimes the educational ma-
terials on AIDS I mentioned earlier dis-
seminate conflicting or diluted messages.
This is because our arduous efforts are
mollified by the new strictures of politi-
cal correctness, or by the tear of being
labeled homophobic or insensitive to
this group or that Ads tell us that any-
one can get AIDS. This is true. But real-
isbcaUy speaking, if you are a sexually
active gay, an intravenous drug user
with little or no access to clean needles,
or a heterosexual having unprotected
sex with multiple partners, then you
have an overwhelmingly greater chance
of contracting AIDS than if you refrained
from or altered these behaviors
Therefore, until a cure for AIDS is
found, (and even after), we would do
well to follow Benjamin Franklin's wise
admonition thatan ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure Lef s take off
the kid gloves, tell the truth, and save
some lives
Campus Spectrum
Pro-life students speak against abortion issue, ruling
Kevin Brown
Campus Spectrum
I was disturbed by a recent edi-
torial that responded to the recent
Supreme Court decision giving states
the right to place restrictions on abor-
tion I happened to be very opposed to
abortion and I disagree with a lot of
things mentioned in the article. Abor-
tion kills an unborn child, but we have
cheapened and devalued life to the
point where individual tights mean
more than anything, even life.
Abortion is so easily justified in
our society, because of our attitudes
towards the unborn. As the article
stated, we don't see unborn children
as human life, but as "parasites" or "
blobs of tissue We devalue and
cheapen life just by the words we use,
whkh is nothing new In Nazi Gat-
many, Hitler spread all kinds of pro-
paganda to get the people to see the
jews as "subhuman" or as "rats to be
exterminated In slave times, Mack
?laves weren't seen as human beings,
but as property.
The point is that it doesn't bother
us to get rid of rats, property or para
sites. Therefore when we begin to see
human life in mis way, it makes it easy
to justify their elimination
The article devalues life again
by trying to equate an unborn child
with an appendix. The fetus has no
more right to live than my appendix
Again, when we start to see an unborn
baby as nothing more than an organ
of our body, its easy to justify abor-
tion.
There's nothing wrong with
having an appendix removed, so
what's wrong w ith removing a fetus?
Also, if it's ail right to kill an unborn
fetus because it is "totally and un-
questionably dependent on ita
mother then why not kill infanta or
new boms? Aren't they totally and un-
questionably dependent on their
mother?
All of us wan fetuses at on
time, product of sperm and egg. None
of us came from storks Until we leam
that there a re better ways to deal with
unwanted pregnancies, ways benefi-
cial to mother and child, we will con-
tinue to destroy ouraetvea.

Congratulations to Heather
Lockey for her wonderful editorial on
the Supreme Court's decision on abor-
tion and to TV East Carolinian for sur-
prisingly giving space to the "politi-
cally incorrect" like myself. But in or-
der to really have an in depth debate
on abortion, we need to look at the
dark history (what Tht American Spec-
tator called "A White Lie") of the
world's largest supplier of abortions,
Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthood was
founded in 1923 by Margaret Sanger,
a woman who to this day la a hero to
the pro-choke (or anti-life) crowd. In
her book. Pit of Cnnlixatian she de-
scribes theobjeetiveof birth control as
being "Morechikiren from the fit, less
from the unfit According to her, the
unfit were "all non-Aryan people "
The tinge of Nazism in her ideas
should not be surprising. An article
on eugenics in the April 1933 issue of
her magazine Birth Centre Masts
was written by Ernest Rudin, Hitler's
director of genetic itsrllliaHnn and
founder of the Nazi Society for Racial
Hygiene.
While the abortion righ ts people
claim to be protecting "poor blacks
very few blacks attend their rallies.
Also, a 1988poll by the National Opin-
ion Research Center showed that 62
percent of blacks believe abortion
should be illegal in all circumstances.
Seeing that almost half of pregnancies
by black women end in abortion, it
hardly seems a matter of "choice
Even a liberal like Jesse Jackson
realized the racism of ebortion In 1977,
he referred to abortion as "genocide
against the black race It was not
until 1984, when Jackson wanted to
enter the liberal elite of the Demo-
cratic Party, mat he adopted a pro-
choke attitude.
I am sure Margaret Sanger
would be proud to know that 70 per-
cent of Planned Parenthood dinks
ant operated in Black and Hispank
neighborhoods. And they call conser-
vatives, who oppose the use of federal

a love story, not the definitive
work on interracial problems and

Nair avoids the weight of
deep contemplation and focuses
on capturing the beauty of

drawing the surprising similari-
ties between the two. She suc-
ceeds magnificently with the aes-
thetics but fails to put the magni-

Demetrius.

Nair manages to loop her sub-
plots around the theme of the
movie with very little distraction,
allowing focus to fall on the lithe
relationship of Mina and
Demetrius. She also, perhaps in-
tentionally, does not force the
questions that were raised in

Do not expect to leave the
theatre questioning the injustices
of society. Mississippi Masala is
not social revolution or wisdom
from above. It is simply a delight-
ful love story that, with stark re-
alism, gives insight into life in
Greenwood, Mississippi which
may as well be Greenville, North

You see (at the very least) one

ies have been made about them and
too many myths and superstitions
to count have been laid at their feet.
Who are these mystical and
fantastical beings?
Vampires, Walpurgisnacht,Vad
the I mpaler, creatures of the undead
? call them what you will, their
timeless ability to raise the hairs on
the back of our necks remains as
strong today as it was when Bram
Stoker wrote his modem horror clas-
sic, Dmcula.
The East Camlina Playhouse
continues this time-honored tradi-
tion with their last installment in
the 1992 Summer Theatre season,
William Kelly's "Dracula
In 1927,Stoker's novel wasdra-
matized in the Lyceum Theater in
London. Following this new twist
in the history of vampires,
"Dracula" enjoyed huge success on
Broadway in 1973, starring Frank
Langella as Dracula. The play has
gone on to simultaneously terrorize
and delight audiences around the
country.
John Shearin, director of
"Dracula"

adapted the
original script
for this run,
has once
again
brought var-
ied and admi-
rable talent to

Deas has

Faldo takes British Open title home
GULLANl Scotland (API
The ball disappeared and the hole,
like a vortex, sucked the breath
out of him a long with it His shoul-
ders sagged, his head slumped for
the briefest moment and when he
turned to face the rest of the world.
Nick Faldo was sobbing uncon-
trollably.
We want heroes with spines
and nerves fcrgil from steel, but
with hearts that break easily
enough so the rest of us recognize
in them some part of ourselves.
No one ever doubted Nick
Faldo's mettle. But until he stood
on Muirfield's LSth green Sunday
with tears streaming down his
ruddy cheeks, Faldo seemed onlv
slightly more human than the Tin
Man from the "Wizard of Oz
Before he got his heart.
"1 don't really know what it
means right now, to be honest
Faldo said, his voice still quiver-
ing a half-hour after a roller-
coaster round of 73 ended with his
third British Open championship.
" I just think the horrible pres-
sure of it, you know, having a
four-shot lead, and if it had all
ended up wrong, I've lost he
paused, "and what the hell would
that have meant to me f"
Plentv. as it turns out. It has
already taken much longer than it
should have for Faldo to be uni-
versallv acclaimed as what he is
? by far the greatest plaver in
championship golf on the planet
right now.
Even before he carved two
birdies out oi the unyielding turf
Of Muirfield over the final four
holes to win Sunday, Faldo's
record and the way he compiled it
certainly spoke for itself:
A first British Open title in
187 in the wet and wind of an
even-more treacherous final day
at Muirfield; a second, in a run-
away, at surprisingly docile St.
Andrews, in 1990; back-to-back
Masters wins, both after playoffs,
in 1989 and 1990.
But the more Faldo won, the
more the character of those wins
seemed to tarnish his brilliance.
His first Open title came as he
sat in the scorer's hut after 18
straight pars and watched on a TV
as Paul Azinger self-destructed
behind him. What most people
remembered about his two Mas-
ters wins was the Scott Hixh-as-
m-choke debacle in NHM and how
Raymond Floyd bogeved the 17th
the following year. Those same
people conveniently forgot that
Faldo shot 65 on the final dav at
Augusta to force Hcxrh into the
playoff and that he birdied three
of the final ix in 19) to make
Floyd do the folding-chair rou-
tine.
Here, though, Nick Faldo let
the rest of the world in. Here, over
the course of four courageous
rounds, he revealed himself to be
made of the sternest stuff, but also
funny and imprecise and, most
important perhaps, vulnerable.
No evebrows were raised
when Faldo followed up an open-
ing-round 66 with a 64 on Friday
10 reach the 36-hole juncture with
the lowest score ever recorded in
the 121 British Opens. Or when he
widened his lead over the field to
four strokes with a very work-
manlike M on Saturday.
But the manner in which Faldo
arrived at the 18th Sundav, and
then walked off it in tears, should
prompt everyone to take another
Icxik.
He was frightened and then
brave at different turns as the lead
dwindled and then disappeared.
And he was drained, finally, at the
last hole of every emotion but re-
lief.

IOC,UN review
volatile situation
Yugoslavian athletes may compete
BARCELONA, Spain (AP)
? The IOC Executive Board
told the United Nations on
Sunday that it prefers to allow
Yugoslavs to compete in team
as well as individual competi-
tions, saying there should be
no distinction between the
two.
"At this stage, this option
remains open said Francois
Carrard, director general of the
International Olympic Com-
mittee. "The IOC has kept and
is keeping the same line
The U.N. Security
Council's sanctions commit-
tee was expected to meet in
New York todav to review the
IOC's position. The IOC board
will recoveneTuesdav to make
a final decision on the statusof
athletes from Yugoslavia and
two of its former republics.
The IOC has proposed that
the Yugoslavs compete under
the Olympic flag and anthem
without officially representing
their homeland. The athletes
would wear white uniforms
and be called the Independent
Team.
But the U.N panel ques-
tioned whether the formula
would go against the sanctions
on Yugoslavia, a former six-
republic federation now con-
sisting of Serbia and
Montenegro. The Secuntv
Council sanctions, includinga
sports boycott, were adopted
May 30 to punish Serbia for
fomenting violence in the
former Yugoslavian republic
of Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The sanctions committee
asked the IOC for clarifications,
saying the Yugoslavian ath-
letes would still be perceived
as representing their country
if they compete as a team. The
panel suggested the Yugoslavs
compete strictly on an indi-
vidual basis ? meaning thev
would be unable to take part
in any team events.
But the IOC insists there
should be no restrictions.
Carrard said the Yugosla-
vian team would be "de-po-
liticized" since the athletes
would formally declare that
they represent onlv them-
selves, not a state or country
"They are coming as indi-
vidual athletes under the au-
thority of the IOC he said.
"Weconsiderthatathlete- mav
take part in team events as in-
dividuals. This line Iv.s been
confirmed
However. Carrard did not
rule out the possibility of lim-
iting the Yugoslavs to indi-
vidual events if the U.N. com-
mittee rejects the IOC's terms
Carrard confirmed the IOC
has alerted national Olympic
Committees to be ready to re-
place any Yugoslavian teams
that might be barred
The Yugoslavs have quali-
fied to compete in men's water
polo and handball and
women's handball and basket-
ball.
Yugoslavia was planning
to send a team of about 160
athletes and officials, Carrard
said.
"t
