Resolution calls
for open records
By Jeff Becker
News Editor
A resolution calling for the
partial opening of ECU's Honor
Board records has been brought
to the SGA.
The Honor Board, com-
posed of seven students, decides
the fate of any student caught
violating the university's judi-
cial rules and procedures.
Karen Greenwell, author of
the resolution, said opening the
records would help regulate the
Honor Board's decisions.
"The students of ECU
could be made more aware and
potentially made safer by their
knowledge of the cases and de-
cisions which face the Honor
Board Greenwell's resolution
stated.
"Recording the cases in
full, supplementing the names
of those parties involved by
words such as 'assailant' and
"victim along with the final
decision of the Honor Board,
would enable students to moni-
tor the judgments of the judicial
system
The resolution currently
rests in the SGA's Student Wel-
fare committee. If the commit-
tee passes the resolution, the
General Assembly will vote on
final passage next Monday.
Greenwell said she was
concerned because students on
the Honor Board have no law
experience and no records exist
to see how those students per-
form.
"I have to be concerned
when cases like rape come be-
fore a board of students who
have no legal experience and are
subject to make decisions as im-
portant as this Greenwell said.
"Right now it's an isolated sys-
tem. You cannot know whether
justice is being served or not.
(The board members) do not
have to be concerned because
their opinions are not open
According to Dean of Stu-
dents Ronald Speier, the Honor
Board's records are protected
under the Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act, com-
monly known as the Buckley
Amendment. Under Buckley,
the Department of Education
can withdraw federal funding
from schools that release edu-
cation records to the public.
Speier said he would con-
sider releasing a list that in-
cluded all decisions made by
the Honor Board, but would
not release any information
that could jeopardize the ano-
nymity of those involved.
Speier said the Honor
Board was well equipped to
handle any cases that arise. He
said board members not only
go through several training ses-
sions to prepare them, but must
also pass a test to enable them
to serve.
"I think this is the closest
a person gets to a board of their
peers, which extensively is
what our system stands for in
our legal system as you de-
scribe it Speier said.
According to Catherine
White, a lawyer for the N.C.
Press Association, ECU seems
to treat judicial records differ-
ently than academic records
and, therefore, the Honor
Board's records may not be
protected under the Buckley
Amendment.
Article Vll of ECU's Judi-
cial Rules and Procedures
states that judicial records are
kept separate from education
records. Article VIII states that
notification of suspension or
dismissal does not become part
of a student's permanent aca-
demic record.
In February 1992, the Uni-
versity of Georgia's student
newspaper, The Red & Black,
won access the school's judicial
board records. A Georgia supe-
rior court judge ruled that the
university's judicial records
were not protected under

hood Lion supports march down 10th Street to denounce reports of illegal practices by America's fifth largest
grocery store chain. More than 150 marched to show their support on Nov. 15.
Food Lion supporters march
By Tracy Ford
Staff Writer
See Honor page 4
More than 150 employees,
family members and supporters of
Food Lion stores across the region
participated in a support march Sun-
day to protest the allegations of
unsanitary practices by ABC's
'Trime Time Live
Participants marched down
10th Street and Greenville Boule-
vard with signs in hand to show
citizens that employees are in sup-
port of Food Lion. Onlookers
cheered in sup port of the march and
Food Lion.
The march organized entirely
by emploveesof Eastern North Caro-
lina stores was a success according
to Sue Foell, a customer service rep-
resentative and five-year emplovee
of Food Lion. She said the companv
has not ordered anyone to partici-
pate in the march or show support
for Food Lion.
"We hope to prove to every-
bodythatthe things that'Prime Time'
said aren't true and that we truly
stand behind our customers said
Cindy Briley, a sophomore at ECU
who has worked at Food Lion for
more than two years.
After a producer of Trime
Time Live' got a job as a meat wrap-
per, the show portrayed with a hid-
den camera workers re-wrapping
and re-datingold mea t, poul try, ham
and fish. One former employee of
Food Lion told 'Prime Time' of
bleachingspoiled fishtoremovedis-
coloration and smell.
According to Foell, the United
Food and Commercial Workers
Union made up the allegations after
unsuccessfully trying to unionize
Food Lion.
"They're tryingto get into Food
Lion again because they stand a
chancetoearn$10millionfrom60,000
employees Foell said.
Food Lion President Tom
Smith denies all allegations and has
launched an advertising campaign
to reassurecustomers that Food Lion
stores are clean and sanitary. Healso
blames the United Food and Com-
mercial Workers Union for prompt-
ing employees to make allegations
since they have not joined the union.
"1 think the march was very
successful Foell said. "Wehavehad

Admissions
cut short
for spring
semester
By Karen Hassell
Staff Writer
Spring semester admissions
stopped two weeks short of the
original Nov. 1 deadline.
"We were limited to 300
transfer and 100 freshmen said
Jerry Clayton, assistant director
of undergraduate admissions-
Robert Thompson, chair of
the political science department,
said there are 1,070 more students
this fall than last spring, a 6.4
percent increase. He said the in-
crease can be attributed to re-
cruitment practices, enhanced
academic image, retention and
advising programs and Peach
Bowlathletic program.
The increases in the fall lead
to cut backs for the spring semes-
ter. However, there is some good
news.
"For the first time since
1973, entering freshmen have an
SAT that is slightly larger than
the national average Thomp-
son said.
Thompson said enrollment
wi II continue to rise in the follow-
ing years.
"We will be aiming for a
student body of 18,000 next fall
he said. "We will continue im-
provement of SATs and close the
gap with the other North Caro-
lina institutions. Others have in-
creased their standards by cut-
ting admissions, unlike us
To offset the abundance of
out-of-state students in the fall of
1992, the fall of 1993 out-of-state
enrollment admissions will be
decreased by 100. In 1994, they
will be decreased by 25.
Clayton said, theoverabun-
dance of out-of-students did not
have any effects on the admis-
sions for spring.
An editorial in The Daily
Reflector outlined the negative
effects of spring enrollment limits.

If the Fall Open House for pro-
spective student was any indication,
the future bodes well for ECU's enroll-
ment.
Admissions counselor Ellen Scott
said, "We were well pleased with the
turnout of prospective students
Though she did not have exact
figures, Scott said the number of stu-
dents was comparable to that in years
past. "We filled the most of the audito-
rium with prospective students to hear
the speeches
The Open House, held Nov. 13,
gave high school seniors a chance to
visit the campus and preview college
life at ECU.
Students who have applied to
ECU, as well as transfer and adult
students, were sent invitations to the
Open House.
Greenville Mayor Nancy Jenkins
welcomed the participants to Green-
ville and to the university in an open-
ing session in Wright Auditorium.
David Watkins, associate vice chancel-
lor for Academic Affairs and Al
Mathews, vice chancellor for Student
Life, addressed the students as well.

Several residence halls and the

gram concluded at noon.
ECU students can travel to Austra-
lia, Netherlands, Sweden, France, Italy,
Mexico and many other countries and
receive credit while paying ECU tuition.
On Nov. 18 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in
the lobby of the General Classroom Build-
ing, students can learn about the Study
AbroadExchange Programs hereatECU.
The International Student Exchange
Program (ISEP) is based on balanced one-
to-one exchanges of students between
institutions in the United States and those
in other countries. Applicants must be
full-time students, have studied at ECU
at least one year and have a 2.75 grade-
point average.
"Don't think you can't study abroad,
the opportunity isavailable hereatECU
said Stephanie Evancho of International
Programs. "If you really want to go some-
where, we'll find somewhere for you to
go
The ISEP program has more than
100 universities to chose from and stu-
dents usually stay for one academic year.
Summer, semester and longer exchanges
are also available.
Aside from travel costs, books and
personal spending money, the cost of the
ISET program is generally no more ex-
pensive than ECU.
"Financial aid students are eligible
for exchanges Evancho said. "ECU
money will transfer and the amount over
goes with you toward housing
Melissa Coughlin, a senior at ECU,
traveled to Sunderland, England and at-
tended the Universi ty of Sunderland from
September 1991 to June 1992.
"I had no responsibilities hereas far
as a car payment, a boyfriend, etcetera, so
1 decided to travel and learn before I
graduated and hit reality'Coughlinsaid.
Coughlin stayed in a dormitory with
13 other exchange students from the
United States and England. She took four
classes that lasted one academic year, and
receiving 24 credit hours.
"ECU was very corporative in trans-
ferring the credits there toward my de-
gree here Coughlin said.
Sunderland is about one hour from
Scotland, so Coughlin was able to travel
to Scotland as well. She also traveled to
Italy and Ireland.
"Northern England is known for
their friendliness and Sunderland is also
known for having 11 pubs to everv mile
Coughlin said. "1 had a wonderful expe-
rience, made good friends, and if I went
again 1 would go somewhere with even
more cultural diversity
Besides the ISEr program, there is
also a National Student Exchange pro-
gram (NSE) where a full-time student
with an overall 2.5 GPA can travel to any
of the 107 schools in the program.

Aid offered to victims
The U.S. Department of Education made available $56.7
million in student aid for victims of 1 iurricane Andrew, I lurri-
cane lniki and Typhoon Omar. The aid will be available to an
estimated 33,000 students currently enrolled in undergraduate,
graduate and professional programs. "We're pleased that we
were able to make this aid available quickly, and with minimal
disruption to students said Lamar Alexander, U.S. secretary of
education. About $40 million of the aid was for emergency Tell
Grants, and $16.7 million will be awarded for campus-based
programs which are administered by school financial aid offices.
Law student arrested for robbery
A 41-year-old law school student, dubbed the "Bordertown
Bandit has been charged with robbing banks in towns along the
Minnesota-Wisconsin border, officials said. Susan P. Robinson
was charged in the robbery of a bank in Cornell, Wis and is
suspected of being involved in five other bank robberies in
Wisconsin towns thatborder Minnesota. Bank tellers were maced
in two robberies, said a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's
Office in Minneapolis, and in another robbery, another teller was
handcuffed. Robinson, who attends William Mitchell college of
Law, was scheduled to graduate in January.
Officials consider banning club
A hazing incident that injured two varsity -port- letter
winners at the University oi Mississippi has caused officials to
consider disbanding the club until further notice. Junior John
Gourlv of Philadelphia and sophomore Donovan Bassett of Jack-
son, Mis were treated at a local emergency room after being
blindfolded with tape while an unidentified liquid was poured
over their head s.Gourley suffered bums on his left ear and cheek,
and Bassett suffered second-degree burns on 80 percent of his
face. Under investigation is the M Club, a social group of 100
varsity letter winners in the eight male sports offered at the
university. Officials said the M Club has been repeatedly told that
hazing is against school policy and Mississippi law.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. �
President-elect Bill Clinton Sun-
da' began mapping a hit-the-
ground-running legislative strat-
egy to revive the economy, and
Senate Majority Leader George J.
Mitchell, D-Maine, predicted that
Congress will move quickly on
such a job stimulus plan and enact
health care reform later in 1993.
"We've got a big job to do
and we've got to do it together
Clinton said as he prepared to host
a working dinner here with
Mitchell, House Speaker Thomas
S. Foley, D-Wash and House
Majority Leader Richard A.
Gephardt, D-Mo.
Clinton said his first post-
election meeting with the Demo-
cratic congressional leadership
was intended to "kind of renew
our acquaintance, talk about our
obligations, look to the future a
little bit, talk a little bit about next
week when 1 go to Washington for
the first time
Clinton told reporters at the
end of his customary morning jog
that he was "very much" looking
forward to meeting President Bush
at the White House Wednesday.
"1 think it's time we met and
talked he said. "His people so
far have been quite ccoperative
and I think it's time for us to get
together
George Stephanopoulos,
Clinton's assistant transition di-
rector for communications, said
the congressional dinner session
was "an important way to break
theiceand talk about what is com-
ing ahead on the legislative calen-
dar and talk about how they are
going to work together for the next
years
Clinton also planned to dis-
cuss with the congressional lead-
ers health care and political cam-
paign reforms, Stephanopoulos
told reporters upon arriving at the

Various legislative strategies
areunderdiscussion,butonethatis
particularly favored by top Clinton
transition planners is the formation
of a high-level legislative strategy
group to take charge of driving the
new president's agenda through
Congress, sources said.
Under such an arrangement,
top White House aides would as-
sume hands-on control of the com-
plicated process� beginning with
the drafting of legislation itself �
in hopes of seizing the opportuni-
ties available to Clinton in the early
days of his administration.
Althoughsuchtasksoftenare
delegated to lower-level officials,
Clinton advisers said they hope to
model their plan upon the suc-
cesses won in the early days of the
Reagan administration by a simi-
lar team headed byjames A. Baker
111 and Richard Darman, then top
White House officials.
Clinton advisers said they
expect that the as-yet-unnamed
new director of the Office of Man-
agement and Budget also would
become a major participant in the
strategy group.
Appearing on NBC's "Meet
the Press Mitchell said he was
encouraged by the pace and direc-
tion of Clinton's transition.
"My hope is that there will be
good bipartisan cooperation on the
important agenda that the presi-
dent-elect will place before the
Congress he said. "I think he's
right on track
Although Clinton cam-
paigned as a Washington outsider
� and kept congressional Demo-
cratic leaders at arm's length � the
Sunday night strategy session
clearly demonstrates that Clinton
is intently focused on breaking the
stalemate that has become a hall-
mark of relations between Con-
gress and the outgoing Bush ad-
ministration.
Medical schooltobegin
in vitro fertilization program
By Shay Pierce
Staff Writer
As a new member of the
Department of Obstetrics and Cv-
necology, Dr. Clifford C. Hayslip
Jr. will open new doors to East
Carolina's Medical School as di-
rector of the new Division of Re-
productive Endocrinology and
Infertility.
Dr. Hayslip will be introduc-
ing the process of in vitro fertiliza-
tion, among other things.
Hayslip received his under-
graduate degree from The Citadel
in Charleston, S.C and his medi-
cal degree from Emory University
in Atlanta, Ga. He worked on his
residency at Fitzsimons Army
Medical College in Denver, Colo
and a fellowship at Wilter Reed
Army Medical Center and the Na-
tional Institutes of Health in
Bethesda, Md.
His 20 years in the medical
field, including six months in Saudi
Arabia during Operation Desert
Storm, has left Hayslip with experi-
ence and know ledge to share.
Currently, Hayslip is evalu-
ating patients on infertility prob-
lems, gynecological endocrine
problems (abnormal menstrua-
tions) and developmental prob-
lems. Hayslip and the department
hope to have laboratories and
equipment ready by the Spring or
Summer of 1993 to start the in vitro
fertilization.
In vitro fertilization is a tech-
nique that unites the woman's egg
and the man's sperm outside the
womb. The egg is held "in vitro" or
outside of me bodyuntUitis time to
be implanted within the woman's
uterus. Tlits service will be offered
to couples experiencing infertility
problems.
Cha i r of the EC U Depa rtment
of Obstetrics and Cynecology, Dr.
D.E. Darnell Jones, said he believes
Hayslips arrival to the university
will provide important and sophis-
ticated medical service as the refer-
ral base for Eastern North Carolina.

Los Angeles Times
WASHINGTON � Two
weeks before Bi'l Clinton's elec-
tion, his top foreign policy ad-
viser, Anthony Lake, quietJy or-
dered up two dozen "option pa-
pers" from Democratic experts to
guide the president-elect's first
steps in his sodden transforma-
tion from candidate to world
leader.
Lake posed three questions,
according to some who received
the request: What international
crises, deadlines and demands for
early action will face President
Clinton when he takes office Jan.
20? What should Clinton do first
to put his stamp on America's
foreign policy? And how should
he conduct himself during the 77-
day transition?
"The effort was to identify
hot issues � issues on which he
might be called upon to make a
statement or send a signal one
adviser said. "The idea was to
enableClinton to move quickly in
the transition
Clinton's aides swore every-
one involved to secrecy. The Ar-
kansas governor was insistent that
he not appear overconfident with
election day still weeks away.
But the afternoon after his
victory, when Clinton emerged
from the Arkansas governor's
mansion, his first words were a
carefully crafted foreign policy
statementintended to send a sig-
nal of calm. "Today I want to
reaffirm the essential continuity
of American foreign policy he
said gravely. "I urge America's
friends and foes alike to recog-
nize that even as America's
administrations change,
America's fundamental interests
do not
Then the candidate who ran
as a champion of domestic issues
plunged in to a round of interna-
tional telephone calls that would
have done George Bush proud:
Russian President Boris N.
Yeltsin, German Chancellor
Helmut Kohl, Japanese Prime
Minister Kiichi Miyazawa, Saudi
Arabia's King Fahd, and more.

Study examines cancer
among black females
By Shay Pierce
Staff Writer
Breast cancer stil 1 has a high
death rate in North Carolina, but
more so for black females.
The East Carolina Univer-
sity Center on Aging will
mortality rate and this is, more
than likely, a significant reason
why.
The researchers will take
random samples of areas where
black women live in 10 North
Carolina communities.
Leaders apprehensive
about gays in military
be working with Univer-
sity of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill's Medical
School on a major can-
cer research study.
The National Cancer
Institute is funding the Uni-
versity of North Carolina
Lineberger Comprehensive Can-
cer Center with the money to
perform the project. Lineberger
is one of four cancer centers in
the United States.
The study will target black
women, 50 years old or more, in
Eastern North Carolina to find
out why they don't have
mammograms on a regular ba-
sis or at all.
Black women havea higher
TATE
EWS
In these areas, researchers
will go door to door for inter-
views in the first year and hope-
fully use those same addresses
again over the next two years
to determine reasons for those
women not having
mammograms done.
Faculty from Chapel Hill
will also come down this year
to start programs to inform
women of the needs to have
mammograms and emphasize
its importance.
Los Angeles Times
Congressional leaders ex-
pressed apprehension Sunday
about President-elect Bill Clinton's
plans to lift the military's ban on
homosexuals, urging him to move
slowly or risk creating an uproar
in Congress and the armed ser-
vices.
"I think we ought to proceed
verycautiously said Democratic
Sen. Sam Nunn of Georgia, chair-
man of the Senate Armed Services
Committee, appearing on CBS's
"Face the Nation
"If you did it overnight, I'd
fear for the lives of people in the
military themselves Nunn said,
warning of possible violence
against gays and lesbians in the
service. "I think there could be
some very emotional feelings. So I
would prefer that it be stretched
out over a period of time.
"We've got to consider not
only the rights of homosexuals,
but also the rights of those who are
not homosexual and who give up
a great deal of their privacy when

they goin the military said Nunn,
who added that he agrees with the
military's prohibition against ho-
mosexuals, which has been in ef-
fect in one form or another since
World War II.
Speakingon NBC's "Meet the
Press Senate Republican Leader
Bob Doleof Kansas also expressed
concern about Clinton's intentions.
"I'd advise him to appoint a
commission and study it. Mind
you, he's going to get in more
trouble than he can add up right
now if he starts with an executive
order on that issue. It will cause
real problems in the military and it
seems to me that he'd be making a
big mistake
"He ought to put it on the
back burner Dole suggested. "Let
somebody else take a hard look at i t
first, then make recommendations.
There are other things you can do
by executive order that wouldn't
blow the lid off the Capitol. I think
this one might come close
Last week, Clinton indicated
that hedoes plan to appoint a panel
to study the situation.

Buckley.
White, who worked on
the Red & Black case, said the
secrecy that surrounds college
judicial hearings has drawn
concern around the country.
"Our country had been
founded on openness she
said. "In our court system, we
make judges accountable for
their decisions. If you don't
know what is going on, there
is the potential for abuse
Speier said he believed
ECU's judicial system was
open because a review board,
composed of seven students
and four faculty members,
oversees the board's activities.
He also said anyone could gain
access to the meeting by get-
ting the approval of the ac-
cused.
"I don't think that this is
closed system Speier said.
"There is nothing to preclude
you from sitting outside the
hearing board every single

to the victim. Nothing to pre-
clude you from asking the ac-
cused if you can go in there
Complaints about ECU's
Honor Board have arisen in the
past.
In September 1991, a stu-
dent filed a rape charge against
an ECU football player. The'
woman said the Honor Board,
specifically her attorney
handled the case poorly.
"I was not told I could have
witnesses in the hearing,
whereas the other person
brought in witnesses and was
better prepared she said. "(My
attorney) didn't even ask many,
of thequestjons,Iaskedmostof
them. I felt if he was going to
defend me, he could have been
better prepared. I would
never recommend anyone in
this situation going to the
school's board
The victim also filed rape
charges against the football
player with the Pitt County Si�.
periorCourt. However, she later
withdrew the charges with the1"
agreement that the player af-
tend counseling sessions with,
her.
Dan Backer, a senior ma:
joring in sociology, has served
on the Honor Board for two
years. Backer said students on �
the Honor Board could some
times be too sympathetic to-
ward a defendant, resulting in
a lenient decision.
Backer said although the -
system has flaws, he had confi- ;
dence in the fairness of the hear-
ings.
"In a guilty plea, all fac- -
tors for each case are discussed
in a private meeting he said
"Factors such as a desire to re-
main in school, whether they
are the first member of their,
family to go to college, whether ;
they are freshmen, things like
that.
At the same time, if a per-�
son is a threat to the student'
body, there is no way they will
be found innocent

Opinion

Dropadd change will hurt students
The ECU Faculty Senate has proposed an
ultimatum to the Student Government Associa-
tion regarding changes in the dropadd sched-
ule.
The Faculty Senate has proposed that the
current drop schedule be shortened to seven
calender days after the first day of classes be-
gins, or five class days after the start of classes.
On the sixth day, a student may add classes on
to his or her schedule, but may not drop a class
unless it accommodates the addition of a class.
For summer session classes, the dropadd
period would be changed to the first two days of
each session. After the two days, a student can
make the same changes as they would be able to
make in the fall or spring semesters.
If the SGA can not propose a better plan to
counteract the problems with the current drop
add schedule, the Faculty Senate will arbitrarily
implement their schedule. The SGA has to meet
this ultimatum by January 1993 in order to
insure that the dropadd period properly re-
flects the students' concerns.
Changing the dropadd schedule alone
(not to mention shortening it) is an idea whose
time hasn't � and should never � come. The
current schedule allows students the much-
A SIDEWARD GLANCE
needed opportunity to drop a class that has
proved too difficult for them. Most instructors
have alsobased their exam schedule to allow the
students to take one exam right before the drop
period ends.
Giving students (and instructors) the op-
portunity to evaluate their future performance
in a class with the first exam is a necessary
stepping-stone in the education process here at
ECU. A student can now drop a class that he or
she has found, after the first exam, to be too
difficult. Instructors can also weed out students
who really don't have the drive to learn the
information being imparted and eventually end
up with livelier, more interested classes.
If the dropadd schedule is changed, then
the total length of time that a student stays at
ECU will increase dramatically (as if people
aren't here long enough already). Limiting stu-
dents in this way will only increase low grades
or incompietes. That does not meet this
university's educational goals.
Forcing students to stay in a class that is too
difficult or has no appeal to them abounds with
the stink of bureaucracy. It seems that this uni-
versity just wants to make things easier on them-
selves, even if it's at the expense of the students.

A VIEW FROM ABOVE
By T. Scott Batcheloi
Silent animals unable to speak on torture
By pavid Jones NFL needs to become politically correct
In late 1991, the Los Angeles
Times reported that General Mo-
tors Corporation uses animals in
their crash test simulations. Each
year, 20,000 dogs, pigs, rabbits,
ferrets, mice and rats are torn,
shredded, mutilated and broken
in a grisly death all in the name of
discovery and science. Why does
GM choose to use animals in their
test while every other car com-
pany on the face of the earth uses
crash test dummies and computer
simulations?
The answer, according to GM,
lies in the fact that they claim the
animal tests give them the edge
in designing cars for the maxi-
mum safety of its passengers. This
being the case, why does the Na-
tional Insurance Institute, who
ranks the safety of cars, report
thatthe top four cars on a list of 10
with the highest "death rate" are
General Motors' cars? It is be-
cause Dr. Frankenstein is alive
and well in 1992 and he is work-
ing at GM.
According to the Animal Wel-
fare Act of 1966 (revised in 1976),
the number of animals that were
tested on in 1991 was 1,635,288.
But did anyone out there realize
that this does not include rats,
mice, birds or any kind of live-
stock? Taking this information
into account the Investor Respon-
sibility Research Center puts the
number at approximately
70,000,000. Folks, this is a trav-
esty that cannot be allowed to
continue.
Now then, before everyone
starts tuning up, let me state that
I do not want to halt scientific
progress. For example, The Can-
cer Research Center uses animals
in its humanitarian quest to find
cures for cancer, but even they
have no restrictions or guidelines
to speak of.
There are four main groups
that, in one way or another try to
influence and or change the cur-
rent status quo regarding animal
testing. The Humane Society, The
American Society for the Preven-
tion of Cruelty to Animals and
the People for the Ethical Treat-
ment of Animals (PETA) are the
first three. They all have similar
goals of introducing legislation
that will not only limit animal
testing, but will try to help find
alternative testing means.
The fourth group is the Ani-
mal Liberation Front, which has
adopted a type of civil disobedi-
ence in their ideals. They are ob-
viously more radical than the first
three groups. They follow three
main ideals: 1) They will not be-
tray each other; 2) They are not
afraid to go to jail; and 3) They
will not harm any animal or hu-
man. Their means are extreme,
but sometimes in today's world
you have to be to get your point
across. The point is they are mak-
ing headway. Just as an example,
a couple of years ago the ALF
broke into the laboratory area at
the University of Pennsylvania.
They stole 40 or so hours of vid-
eotape that had many of the
university's animal experiments
on it. When this tape was pre-
sented to a Congressional com-
mittee and the terrible carnage
was shown, hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars to be given to the
university were immediately
halted. They got the job done.
Membership in these organi-
zations has skyrocketed. The Hu-
mane Society is over 1.5 million
members strong. PETA's mem-
bership has quadrupled in the
past 10 years since its inception.
Public opinion is changing. Re-
cently Parent's magazine did a
survey that showed that 80 per-
cent of those surveyed were in
favor of the Humane Society's
and most of PETA's standards. A
recent Gallup Poll said that 90
percent of those surveyed would
use only cruelty-free products if
those products were labeled as
such.
Why then, are they not la-
beled, and why are 70,000,000
animals slaughtered each year in
the name of hygiene, vanity and
science? The answer lies in the
Cosmetics, Toiletries and Fra-
grance Association (CTFA). They,
along with monster corporations
like Gillette and L'Oreal, exist
solely for the purpose of oppos-
ing any legislation that PET A or
the Humane Society tries to pro-
pose. It's amazing what money
will buy, don't you think?
A large majority of America
wants one thing and a couple of
corporation owners wants some-
thing else. Remember, people, I'm
talking about corporate labs that
force feed deodorant to dogs,
saturate cats in dangerous chemi-
cal solutions and drip cosmetics
into rabbits' eyes. These are not
experiments that will further the
progress of any science except the
science of torture.
The real travesty here is that
there is already in existence vi-
able alternatives to testing. The
Draize Test, for example, consists
of placing any substance into the
eyes of albino rabbits over and
over again for three to f o u r weeks.
An alternative to this mind-
less torture was invented by Dr.
Virginia Gordon. She developed
a toxicity test that uses isolated
cells in a test tube to determine
chemical effects. Over 120 orga-
nizations world-wide � includ-
ing Revlon, Avon, Estee Lauder
(who, by the way, now have cru-
elty free products) � agree tha'
the Dr. Gordon's test is every bit
as good as the Draize Test.
People, the bottom line here
is this � just think first. It doesn't
take that long to check ingredi-
ents in things. Going without fur
(if you can even afford it) is not
that big a sacrifice.
There is a ton of literature out
there telling more about the
groups that 1 have mentioned here
as well as ways you can help the
cause. Go find it. Read it, and
decide for yourself who is more
justified in what they do.
Think first � you just might
be lessening the amount of sense-
less terror that is inflicted on the
silentanimals, who neverdid any-
thing to deserve it and who can't
speak up for themselves.

In reviewing my columns of
the last several weeks, I noticed
that most of them had been about
Bill Clinton. I think it's time for a
change.
So let's talk about the evils of
sports and how team names serve
to degenerate and deride whole
groups of people.
Take the NFL's New England
Patriots forinstance. New England
Patriots! Thegall, the unmitigated
bigotry! Imagine being one of the
descendants of a minuteman in
the Revolutionary War and see-
ing the disgusting portrayal on
football helmets of a patriot
crouched in a three-point stance.
Oh, the indignity!
Or how about the San Fran-
cisco '49ers? To have a football
team named after a hearty and
adventuresome groupof men who
risked their lives and fortunes in
search of gold in the California
Gold Rush of 1849 is despicable.
Don't be surprised if the great-
great-grandchildren of these men
file a class action suit against the
NFL to stop this senseless trag-
edy.
Ditto the Houston Oilers and
the New Orleans Saints. (How the
Vatican tolerates the latter is be-
yond me.)
And how could a proper ac-
counting of this travesty be made
without mentioning major league
baseball's Pittsburgh Pirates? One
gets the impression that the early
owners of this team, (probably �
dare I write it? � white men of
European descent) sat around and
said, "Hey, I know, let's belittle a
whole group of human beings.
Let's pick Pirates as our team
name Pirates, indeed. Perhaps
no other single group of people
has withstood more pernicious
stereotyping than pirates. The
dreadful image promulgated by
American history books of pirates
as men who sail the seas to plun-
der and rob other ships is repre-
hensible. I say take the word "Pi-
rates" off the ball caps and restore
some dignity to this once proud
group of people.
The list, unfortunately, goes
on. There are the Boston Celtics of
the NBA, for instance, and the New
York Knickerbockers (a slam on
either Dutch descendants in New
York or a style of pants, I'm not
sure which).
One insensitive football team
even uses (gulp!) Cowboys as its
moniker.
I'm not sure if there are any
true Vikings anymore, but if there
are, they should be rioting in the
streets of Minnesota. Why,calling
a team the Vikings is like calling
them the Caucasians! Imagine!
EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK
While I have this forum, why
stop with team names that put
down only' umans? I mean, what
right do we have to plaster on a T
shirt the picture of a dolphin wear-
ing a helmet and sell it down in
Miami for $20 a pop? Or to
trivialize the beauty of the cardi-
nal by slapping its image on a
football helmet in St. Louis? The
noble eagle is vandalized in Phila-
delphia; the defenseless Oriole is
exploited in Baltimore; and the
unsuspecting falcon is ravaged in
Atlanta (not to mention that other
team down there).
It's time we sports fans spoke
out against the indignities com
mitted by these thoughtless baH-
clubs. Whole groups of people and
species of fauna shouldn't ha ve to
be degenerated just so we canhavfe-
our fun. Alternative names could
be used without any loss in effect;
what's more important, our col-
lective conscience would be clear.
The following are a few sug-
gestions: the St. Louis Plastic-
things-on-the-tips-of-your-shoe-
strings; the Denver Morning
Dews; the Washington Monu-
ments; the Green Bay Icicles; the
Dallas Sparkly-things-you-see-
when-you-get-hit-in-the-eye; and
the Charlotte Concrete Slabs. Now;
get busy and pick your own inof-
fensive names.

Socialism not cause of all misery in America
Last week, in both issues of
The East Carolinian, some opin-
ions were expressed about social-
ism. In a two-part attack, it was
obvious that Americans are fed
up with the present political sys-
tem. Three cheers for us on that
point.
However, the argument
voiced seems to point toward so-
cialism as the cause for all our
misery. In the great "crafty rheto-
ric" style which was attacked in
part two, it was stressed that in
no way is socialism tolerable in
any amount. Rhetorically we were
asked, "What is an acceptable
amount of HIV in one's blood-
stream?" Well, that's enough to
scare me away from socialism,
except for one small trifling mat-
ter: the facts.
Can the author of the edito-
rial be afraid of the unknown? It
is doubtful. Surely he enjoys and
has enjoyed the benefits of the
public school system. A great in-
stitution of socialism, public
school provides education to
many that can and cannot afford
it. All Americans believe it is a
necessity, so we collectively pay
for it. This alone throws out the
"acceptable amount" theory, but
there are more reasons than just
the public school system.
Law enforcement and social
services serve to protect and shel-
ter our fellow citizens and r eigh-
bors. What would we do without
these? The National Endowment
for the Arts is another publicly
funded institution. The NEA
seems to be the exact opposite of
the argument made about the So-
viet artist. American artists try-
ing to express themselves with
public money are being censored
here in the USA.
What are we to do? Purge
ourselves completely of the so-
cialist threat?
Let's hope not.
It is agreed that
socialism
should stay out
of some blood-
streams, like
business, but
this does not
mean that so-
cialist institu-
tions are cancer-
ous. If we be-
lieve that sys-
tems such as
public school,
law enforce-
ment and social
services are necessities, then why
not health care? What are we so
scared of?
People need medical atten-
tion, and many of those that do
cannot afford it. The example of
the Canadian medical system was
used to refute socialized medi-
cine, but it is young and has not
had the time to blossom like those
systems of our European neigh-
bors. The Canadians are at least
trying; in generations to come
they will benefit from their tran-
sition.
Those who are scared of so-
cialized medicine put an end to
Oregon's Health Plan. If it had
been permitted a chance, we all
might have benefited from its
successesand learned from it fail-
ures. Some of us think that the
HIV-like institution should be.
stamped out regardless.
We could reflect on the
editorial's
"unifying
philosophy
we must
adopt but
it simply
was not de-
fined. No
matter,
Americans
in this past
election de-
fined it
pretty well
themselves.
People of
the '90s are
ready to do
somethingdifferent. We are ready
to take a shot of another "accept-
able amount" of socialism into
our presently clogged, medical
bloodstream.
Through a social health care
system, costs will be made fair
and just. As Americans, we must
care for our own and sacrifice a
little. If taking care of ourselves
means allowing contaminationof
a bad system with a working one,
so be it. We should remember
those institutions where social-
ism has been beneficial and detri-
mental and realize that there ex-
ists an acceptable dose.
We (people of the
'90s) are ready to
take a shot of an-
other "acceptable
amount" of social-
ism into our pres-
ently clogged,
medical blood-
stream.

If you like a show thaf s personal and

another concert date. You must see this show.
If it wasn't Henry Rollins seizing my soul
with his highly powerful vocals and his can't-
be-ignored lyrics, it was the Beastie's constant
groove not letting me sit still for a second.
Fact, and most importantly, remember
this; The Rollins Band does not tour to pro-

himself said inapress release, "Doesn'tmatter
where you put us on the bill, or who you put

When we do work, you get destroyed. That's
just the way it is
�And what an understatement from
'Bumble Hank" that is. With a mix of people
who enjoyed everything from the now-leg-
endary hard-core sound ofBlackFlag, Rollins'
first band, to a hip-hop crowd intent on a
10,000-person dance party with the Beastie
Bpjfs, no one could ignore thecompletedomi-
nance of the live Rollins Band.
At one point there was a pause between
songs, and Henry suddenly screamed at us,
'You must think you're gonna live forever
. The band then kicked it, in their usual
energetic fashion, as Rollins continued ex-
pressing his societal concerns. You couldn't
help but to want to get off your seat and
scream "Hell yeah, this is a live show

of1987. After 12 days of practice, they wen ton
a. 16-week tour covering 15 countries. He
started outwith Andrew Weiss on bass, Chris
Haskett onguitar and Sim Cain on drums and
percussion. On their first tour, they met Theo
Van Rock in Europe and incorporated him
into the band as the soundman. The lineup
hasn't changed from day one, and, from the
way Rollins speaks of his fellow band mem-
bers, it never will.
'The band has fierce work ethic on the
road and off. The band writes all songs to-
gether. Dedication and excellence has always
been our reputation, when you see the band,
ifs always tight and on the attack mode
Rollins said.
Don't expect to see a visual trip full of
carnival lightsandobscurestageprops.Rollins
doesn't need any dramatics to get your atten-
tion. A basic, white-lighted stage is all the
band used; the magic is in the music, not tine
scenery.
The Rollins Band took the crowd on a
mind excursion that started as a low rolling
tide that built and built until a tidal wave
drowned the audience in a maelstrom of
music.
When The Rollins Band finished, one
thought plagued my stunned brain; To greet
another band in the post-holocaustal flood of
Henry Rollins is staggering!
I must admit, I shot down the Beastie
Boys before they ever walked on stage. This is
a band immortalized by the commercialism
of music television. In my mind they had a lot
to prove to even think they could be on the
same bill as The Rollins Band. Yet Adrock,
MCA and Mike D, the obnoxious Beastie
Boys, turned theCivicCenter intoacarnivalof
nowhere to sit and everywhere to dance.
It was hard to sit still with a percussion
flow that bordered on the feeling that you
were exposed to some primitive tribal ritual.
You had to move to the beat.
The band did two shows in my eyes.
They performed a rap act, and they played a
live show.
They performed three different sets of
songs that were nothing more than three

Hie music was pumping and the band was
singing, no one played the instalments. In
other words, half of die show consisted of the
"Boys" singing along to some recorded mate-
rial. Now, in my txxik, that is something weall
do at home when we listen to a favorite song
and dance in front of the mirror.
The Beastie Boys saved themselves in a
most impressive fashion. Though they are
indeed touring to support their third album,

Charles Kuralt and Loonis
McGlohon's encore presentation
ofNorth Carolina Is My Home
Wednesday, Nov. 11, in Wright
Auditorium.
� ��, Kuralt and McGlohon pre-
sented their musical tribute for
the second time at ECU since they
fijrst wrote it in 1984. Governor
Jim Hunt asked them to write
something commerating the
Roanoke Island colony's 400th
Srfrti versa ry.
jp. Their first performance was
in April 1987 as part of a celebra-
tion of the reopening of the reno-
vated Wright Auditorium. That
performance was filmed by the
North Carolina Public TV net-
work and it is still one of the
networks most popular shows.
"North Carolina Is My Home
was never intended to become a
career for us; it was actually in-
tended to be only a small gift to
the schools and libraries of our
state Kuralt said. "We never ac-
tually thought of performing un-
til people started asking us to
Since their first performance,
they have travelled across the na-
tion and as far away as London
and Vancouver telling the stories
of North Carolina.
McGlohon, along with the
Loonis McGlohon Trio, opened
the evening with a few pieces
followed by a short introduction
to Kuralt.
Jim Campbell and Marlene
VerPlank, both nationally ac-
claimed artists, got the evening
rolling with their rendition of the
song "North Carolina Is My
Home
Kuralt continued entertain-
ing the audience with some of
North Carolina's most famous
legends and a few that are not as
well known.
Campbell and VerPlank's
songs were sprinkled through-
out the show as well as the Loonis
McGlohon Trio's instrumentals.
The night ended with a final
verse of "North Carolina Is My
Home" by Campbell and
VerPlank. The group left Wright
Auditorium as the audience rose
to a standing ovation.
Kuralt, who was born in
Wilmington, lived in Onslow
County on hisgrandfather's farm.
Because his father was a social
worker for the state, the family
moved around quite a bit.

label located in Chapel Hill, the new

looks and sounds of the five bands
highlighted FridayandSaturdaynight,
MoistBaited Bream will have a se-

over the course of this two night look-

MoistBaited Breath records was
formed two years ago by J. Kelly Cox

Cox, both he and Peterson have al-

company. Perhaps the backbone of
these common goa Is is the d iversi ty of

The crowd sixin learned that the at-
mosphere of the music is much more
important than who is playing and
what they look like. To describe Well
Nigh Forgotten, you must picture a
frantic, fluid-sounding death march
interrupted by brief explosions and
fast note-bending melodies. Now if
you can imagine this, top it all off with
a high, cracking nasal chant. If you
would like to hear more, the band's
first CD will be out in about a month.
Perhaps the most impressiveband
featured Friday night was Archer's of
Loaf. Dynamics would have to be the
key word for this band. The majority
of their songs begin with childish

"People have an image of the African
woman as one who is homeless, and who
breeds too many sick, hungry and naked chil-
dren said Flora Nwapa, "but this is not true
�we are the descendants of the bravest, most
independent women in the world
Starting with this mythical concept of
African women,Nwapacontinued toenlighten
an audienceof eager, ear-straining listeners on
Monday Nov. 9. As the foremost African
woman writer, and the first African female to
write a novel in English (Efiint, 1966), Nwapa
deftly explored American Misconceptions of
African women.
According to Nwapa, Cleopatra is an ex-
ample of an intelligent and independent Afri-
can woman, but as a European, Shakespeare
"dismisses her as a strumpet"
Shakespeare is only one of many British
subjects to underestimatethepowerof African
women. At one point, die British, trying to
develop a taxation level in Nigeria, decided to
count all the African subjects. The African
women were gravely offended, because only
sheep and such other animal are counted, not
people. And so, the women s teamed the town,
brandishing kitchen utensils, casavas (a root
similar toyams)andmortars.The military had
to be brought in to contain The Women's War,
but eventually, the offending statute was re-
moved.
Nwapa also explained to the audience
how the African woman was economically
independent
"Though she may not seek money as a
reward, she does work as a trader and mer-
chant, " Nwapa said. "And now, mere is a
rebirth of independence � the women are
tryingtofix what they consider personal inad-
equacies in their lives. If a woman does not see
herself aseducatal enough,shewill go back to
school. I have seen it happen
When questioned about the new motiva-
tion toward independence, Nwapa quickly
countered with an explanation thatall women
are finding the power within to assert them-
selves in life.
"It is a world-wide movement. Women
right here in the United States are demanding
their economic and social rights she said.
Nwapa also talked about her many adult
andchildren'sbcxiks,whichreflecttheoraland
folk tradition of her culture When asked why
women writers do not address more impor-
tant subjects, instead of domestic issues, etc
Nwapa reminded theaudiencethatmale writ-
ers are not asked to validate their reasons for
writing about men.
Although she mostly spike about the
African woman, and her personal efforts to
define her through the oral use of "proverbs,
parables, songs and tales Nwapa'scomment
on mile and female writers shows tliat social
misconceptions regarding relevant topics for
literature are far from being just and African
controversy.

The East Carolina Pirates, re-
boundingfroma losstoWest Virginia,
outclassed Arkansas State University
Saturday in a game that showed the
unpredictability of Head Coach Steve
Logan.
Logan, surprising many in the
small Ficklen stadium crowd, left se-
nior quarterback Sean McConnell in
the lineup for the entire game.
McConnell, who has spen t most of the
seasonbackinguphissophomorecoun-
terpart, Michael Anderson, turned in a
solid performance to help his team to a
35-18 Senior Day victory. After throw-
ing three touchdown passes,
McConnell was overshadowed only
by the rushing performance of
runningback Junior Smith, who fin-
ished the contest with 232 rushing
yards, only 13 short of an ECU single-
game record.
After stalling on their first two
drives, the Pirate offense began click-
ing late in the first quarter, with
McConnell hitting Morris Letcher at
the 1 yard line, setting up the first of
junior Smith's two touchdown runs.
The Pirate defense held ASU scoreless
until a three-minute drive set up a 37-
yard ASU field goal early in thesecond
period. The Pirates attempted to an-
swer the score, but an ASU intercep-
tion kept them off the scoreboard until,
with 706 remaining in the half, McCo
nnell connected with Charles Miles for
a 17 yard touchdown reception. The
Pirates left the fieldathalftimeholding
a 14-3 lead, which they widened soon
after play resumed.

field position,attheirown48yard line.
Junior Smith quickly went to work,
driving his team to the ASU 12, and
after Carlester Crumpler's 11 yard re-
ception, Smith pounded through the
ASU defense for his second goal line
score.
After an ECU kickoff, ASU quar-
terback Tom Sears drove his team 95

the game, capping their victory.
After the game, McConnell

are important to Pirate fans, as
they represent a rarity in East Caro-
lina football history. These four
men, and only these four, have
achieved 1,000 yard rushing sea-
sons during their Pirate football
careers.
Now there is a player who,
for the first time in seven years, is
close to joining these Pirate leg-
ends in ECU's record books. He
has been a high-point on a team
intent on building for future suc-
cess. He has helped Head Coach
Steve Logan balance his offense
by providing a chaser for quarter-
back Michael Anderson's high
octane passing attack. He is excit-
ing to watch, difficult to stop and
impossible to tame. He has run
wild this year for over 900 yards,
and has
proven that
on this Pi-
rate team
led by se-
niors, that
there is
room for a

pecially if

The ECU Women's Soccer Team
competed this past weekend in a
tournament held in Boone, N.C.
The tournament included 12
teams including Appalachian State,
UNC-C, Wake Forest, Georgia
Southern, South Carolina and Ten-
nessee among others.
The Pirates' first game was
against South Carolina and al-
though they dominated play, they
only managed a 1-0 win.
The only goal was scored by
left wing Alison Russell on a left-
footer from 20-yards out. The Pi-
rates pressured the Gamecock goal
often, but could not score any more
goals.
East Carolina's next game was
against Georgia Southern. Earlier
this season, ECU beat the Eagles, 2-
0. A much stronger GSU team held
the Pirates scoreless in the first half,
but could not keep ECU down in
the second half.
Center halfback Eileen Moore
broke the scoreless tie with 15:30
left in the game, and junior stopper
Stephanie Aicher iced the win with
her first goal of the year eight min-
utes later. Sweeper Joelle Pierce led
the defense as the Pirates won, 2-0.
Game three pitted the Pirates
against the University of Tennessee
at Chattanooga. ECU fell behind
early and had trouble getting on
track in the first half. They put it in
gear in thesecond half, as almost all
of the play was in the UT-C third of
the field.
Unfortunately, the Pirates were
unable to penetrate the goal and
they fell 1-0.
ECU still held hopes of draw-
ing the wildcard bid to the semifi-

For an athlete, sweat is a small price to pay. It is
simply part of the job. A necessary rigor for success.
ECU has many athletes who are willing to pay this
price, to give all they have to achieve their absolute
best. However, unless they play a high profile sport,
much of their dedication goes unnoticed.
ECUriasrrianyofmeseathIetes,rnanyteamsof
unnoticed heroes. One such team is a collection of
women who are willing to work just as hard as any
other team on campus. They practice long, hard
hours perfectingevery motion, synchronizing three
minutes of their life to a tape of high energy dance
music. Uke many of ECU's high-profile athletic
programs, they serve an entertainment purpose at
the university. Unlike these teams, the Pure Gold
Dancers may be in line for a national championship.
AJto Gary has been a Pure Gold Dancer for
three years. A 19-year veteran of dance, she has
dedicated much of her life toward fulfilling her
Pirates take j
dance dream, and now captains the ECU team.
C?ry said she has experienced much of the rigors
lre dancers must go through to improve their
positionof fourth placeatlastyear'snationaJ cham-
pionships.
"Dancing is incredibly demanding she said
We'veseentwistedankles,badbacks,kneesoutof
joint�every thingany other team on campus goes
through Gary said the girls on the squad are
extremely dedicated to the team, practicing an
average of 12-15 hours a week since the beginning
of August. Gary said this load is quickly intensify-
ing as the year progresses, as the team is preparing
routines for the national championship in San
Antonio, Texas this April. "We are now up to
around 36 hours a week Gary said.
To help them "bring home the gold" in April,
the dancers have enlisted the help of Washington
N.C, native Mark Evans, a world renowned chore-
ographer. Evans, who now resides in Atlanta is
more widely known as "Whatizit?" the Olympic
nals, but fell just one point short to
UNC-Charlotte.
ASU went on to win the tour-
nament, but East Carolina made
an impression on the entire field.
Tournament Director Bob
Goddard said, "ECU was definitely
the strongest team in this tourna-
ment, but that's the nature of tour-
nament play; the best team doesn't
always win
Two Pirates won All-Tourna-
ment Honors: wing Alison Russell
and sweeper Joelle Pierce. No team
in the field placed more than two
players on the All-Tournament
team.
The team will look to continue
its progress this weekend as they
go to Chapel Hill to take on the
UNC Club.
The Pirates will finish out the
season at home on Dec. 6, when
they play N.C. State.

Richards realizes the challenges
which are presented. Shesaid, "I'm the

me. It's really nice, but it still puts a lot of
pressureon me. Most of the people from
my hometown go to local schools. People

There wasa

Almost a month ago, ECU's Irate
FrisbeeTeam traveled to Annapolis, Ma.
to participate in Navy's Invitational Ul-
timate Frisbee Tournament. They left
there with a 6-0 mark and new respect to
accompany their tournament champi-
onship. Thelratesarenow undefeated in
collegiate games this fall, after a success-
ful spring season in which they finished
23rd in the nation.
The tournament began in the morn-
ing with the temperature around 45 de-
grees with a stiff 15 m.p.h. wind. Rutgers
University was the first to fall in a game
that took the Irates the first half to wake
up.
Nextcamethealways-in-shapeNavy
Demon Seamen who proved to be the
Irates only formidable opponents of the
weekend.
In an early seesaw battle, the Irates
eventually pulled out a 13-11 win.
The last two opponents of the day,
Lehigh University and the University of
Pennsylvania, were no match for the
Irates. They were crushed by scores of
13-2 and 13-4 respectively.
"This is the best Ultimate I have seen
the Irates play in a while said Nat Tay-
lor, the Irates captain.
"Once we got the momentum going
day
was a
beauti-
ful day
for Ul-

our way, we never let up, on offense or
defense. But we needed to focus on our
mistakes, to make sure we kept the 'tide

talent for them, butlgive them a lot
of credit. They always play uswell'
Bill Romberger,
as the Irates had a first- round-bye in the
championship bracket.
The first game pitted the Irates
against Penn in a rematch of a vocal
game played the day before.
Again, the Irate offensive flow could
storm in Annapolis
not be stopped as the Irates cruised to a
15-5 victory.
The win put the Irates in a champi-
onship game for the first time in almost
a year.

ways do Bill Romberger, Irate co-cap-

ground, but we hung with them. In the
end, we just had too much talent for

mascot for Atlanta's 19 ceremo-
nies. Besides dancing at this Evans
has worked with much of the danc-
ing world, including pop-superstar
Paula Abdul. Evanssaid heseesgreat
potential in the Pure Gold Dancers,
and said they are legitimate con-
tenders for the championship.
"These dancers have incredible
moldabletalent'hesaidThey defi-
nitely have the potential to be a na-
tional champion dance team Evans
said the team at East Carolina was
"one of the most energetic and en-
thusiastic"hehad everworked with.
Evans said a sore point wi th him and
the dancers was the fact they were
not considered athletes by much of
the university population.
"This is a very legitimate ath-
letic activity' he said. "There is a
misconception about (the dancers)
not being athletes. It takes tremen-
dousdisciplineinnutritiorurining,
physical conditioning, as well as a
great deal of academic discipline to
do this. They are definitely worthy
of more attention Evans said he is
worried about the current practice
spacethe dancers are provided with,
as the floor in the Sports Medicine
building could cause injuries.
TerrieHarris,a three-year mem-
ber of the squad, is a victim of the
injuries the dance style can per-
petuate. Harris, who suffered a
pulled knee tendon during a prac-
tice routine last Monday, said the
"spinning and twisting style of the
dance" was extremely hard on the
dancers' knees.
Gary said her dancers are ex-
pecting a shootout with the dance
squad from UNC for the national
title, and felt that this squad was
their principal competition.
Gary said she feels that while
the Chapel Hill squad may havean
edge in speed, the superior chore-
ography of the ECU squad will
help them triumph over their in-
state rivals.
"They'll doenoughofthequick

Holyfield
bows out to
Bowe in bout
By Robert S. Todd
Sports Editor
Riddick Bowe lost 37 pounds
in 44 days. He went the distance
for the first time in his career. He
also destroyed perhaps the worst
champion to hold the belt since
the man he beat, Buster Douglas.
But Evander Holyfield did
show up and fight to the bloody
end. The outcome of the contest
was sealed by the eighth round,
yet Holyfield continued to go toe-
to-toe with Bowe. He also went
chin-to-fist and almost went face-
to-mat.
"He has the heart of a lion
Bowe said. "He's a great guy
However, Bowe's words of-
fered little relief for the swollen
eyes and battered pride Holyfield
had to contend with.
Bowe was the better man.
"I told everybody Bowe
said. "It was time for a change.
George Bush had to go. Evander
Holyfield had to go. Evander was
surprised more than anybody
Another surprise will come
from Bowe's corner, soon. The
next title fight may be the last for
Bowe, whether he wins or not.
There has been serious talk of a
Bowe-(George) Foreman fight to
be held in China; In which case
the governing bodies in boxing
would strip Bowe of his title. The
rumored $20 million dollar purse
may be enough for Bowe not to
care.
What about Lenox Lewis, you
say?
"He's a big, ugly bum Bowe
said. "I can tell you right now, he
ain't takin' nothin' back to En-
gland
Probably not anytime soon,
with the potential Bowe may
forego any fight with Lewis for
the big money.
Smith
ior Smith h.i two personal goals set
for this foothill season, both directly
related to each other. One of these is
a team goal, and to Junior, the most
important.
"At the beginning of the vear,
the team set the goal to have a win-
ning season Smith said. "That
means a lot to me. I'm not used to
being on a losing team
Also on Smith's mind is gaining
the coveted 1,000 yards to enshrine
his name in the record books, a goal
that recent performances have
brought into his reach.
Smith has turned in outstand-
ing mshing games in his last three
outings, including a career high 232
yardsagainst ArkansasSt. This near-
record-breakingperformancehas pu t
Smith at 928 yards for the season.
"I oweitto myself to havea good
game, but I'm not worried about the
1,0(K) yards. I'm just going to go out
Continued from page 9
there and do what they ask me to,
and if the 1,000 yards come, they
a me Smith said that if he ends the
season against MemphisSt. with999
yards, and the Pirates win the game,
he will still feelgood.
Carlester Cnimpler Sr ECU's
all-time leading rusher, said he feels
Smith has a reasonable chance to
gain the 72 yards he needs to join him
in the record books, even though the
team is playing one of the top de-
fenses in the nation.
"This season is a tribute to
Junior's athletic ability he said. "In
the last part of the season, he's made
tremendous improvements and he's
nmning with more confidence. Jun-
ior isdefinitely in reach of l,000yards,
but he'll have to establish himself
early
Crump ler sa id he believes Smi th
will break his record as ECU's great-
est runningback, and has already
thought about the day that will hap-
pen.
"1 envision myself handingjun-
ior the game ball, as the tallest run-
ningback ever to play at ECU, to the
shortest
Smith said he has appreciated
the support and instruction that he
has received from the Pirate coach-
ing staff, particularly from
Runningbacks Coach Todd Berry.
Smith said that Berry is a great moti-
vator and he has no trouble under-
standing when Berry expects some-
thing from him.
"You can see it in his eyes he
said. "He's my father away from
home Apparently, Berry is similar
to Smith's real fatheras,accordingto
Smith, his father is also a strong mo-
tivator.
"(My father) is my strength
Smith said. "He reminds me to pray
and keeps me pumped up. He told
me in high school that 1 may be able
to play at any level. He's my motiva-
tor and my role model Smith said
the religious background his parents
instilled him with has been essential
to his athleticand personal success
I pray a lot for my strength he said.
"If I relate everything to that, I know
I'll succeed
Junior said he is not thrown by
all the attention he has received of
late, but it has changed things for
him. "I feel a little different in the
spotlight, but I just want to show
people what Jean do
Smith said he hopes he can con-
tinue to improve his performances in
the future and, 1,000-yard season or
not, he knows how he would like to
be remembered by Pirate fans three
years from now, after his ECU career
has ended.
"I just want them to say Junior
was a short guy with a lot of heart
