The East Carolinian Vol. 68 No. 5 Circulation 12,000 Greenville, North Carolina Tuesday , January 26, 1993 14 Pages Abortion activists confront each other on anniversary ECU students, faculty participate in Roe Vs. Wade rally By Joe Horst Staff Writer ECU sophomore Thomas Blue confronts a Greenvilleroif?'anti- abortion supporter. Chilly weather Friday night did not deter supporters and op- ponents alike from commemo- rating the 20th anniversary of the landmark Supreme Court deci- sion, Roe v. Wade. As the sun set and the night grew colder, both sides began lighting candles to honor the event from their respective views. At 5:45 p.m the pro- choice side gathered on the east steps of the Pitt County Court- house, with the anti-abortion advocates on the south side. As bells tolled the six o'clock hour in the background, the two sides met on the south steps to try to outdo each other in volume and message content. Before the meeting of the two sides, individuals from each group were equally voiceful on the subject. "I think Roe v. Wade is very important for women because with the issues today like pov- erty and economic turmoil, you want to be sure that you have an extra option said Tim Truzy, an ECU graduate student. "Who wants to bring up a child in the conditions we live in today?" Though these people were pro-choice, some did not believe that abortion was right. Michelle Glad, an ECU junior, believes that the woman has the right to make that choice, though she per- sonally is against abortion. Student's death explained ByWarren Sumner Staff Writer Many ECU students turned out to show thier support for both Vthe 'pro- choice and pro-life sides. "Who are you to tell me (how to act?)" Glad said. "It's none of your business what I do Individuals on the anti- abortion side replied with equal emotion to the controversial is- sue. "(The Roe v. Wade decision) was a pretty black day, we feel, as far as humanity is concerned said John Andrason, grand knight of the Greenville Knights ofColumbus. "Wedo believe that human life starts at conception � that's the number one bottom line � and from there we grow "I think that (the decision) is something that should be re- considered and looked at from a more modernistic and biblical point of view said Keith Webb, an ECU graduate student. Though on the anti-abor- tion side, some people professed views that fell into a gray area of debate. "I don't believe that abor- tion in the case of incest or rape is the wrong thing Webb said. "Or abortion in the case of dan- ger to the mother � those I agree with, because instead of losing two lives, you're only aborting one "The only thing I know that's black and white is death and taxes Andrason said. "What's in between, there's room for compromise. I just hope that common sense prevails in this, because it has polarized One aspect of both groups See MARCH page 4 mgural By Jason Williams Staff Writer Filled with hope and idealism, some 20 members of the ECU College Demo- crats travelled to the nation's capitol last week to participate in the inaugural fes- tivities. Their hard work throughout the campaign had finally paid off, as this trip was the reward for meeting with candi- dates, volunteering at rallies and passing out flyers during the past semester. Thomas Blue, president of the Col- lege Democrats, led the first caravan to Washington, leaving at 3 a.m. Jan. 17 in order to attend a volunteer's meeting in DC. "If we had volunteered, we would have had to pass out flags along the pa- rade route all day long and we would have missed the swearing-in ceremony, so we decided against it Blue said. The first event in which the group participated was the America's Reunion on the Mall on Sunday afternoon. Scarlette Gardner, another College Democrat, de- scribed the event by saying, "Tents were set up for various entertainment groups and food from all over America and the world was available Blue added, "We also got to see Peter, Paul and Mary, some awesome fireworks, and even Chelsea Clinton was there Bill Gheen, the vice president of the ECU College Democrats, attended a new, but promising event on Monday spon- sored by the Young People's National Service Coalition. "The purpose of this group is to create the first ever youth think tank in Washington to increase the involvement of young people in govern- mental the grass roots level Gheen said. Later that day, the ECU group at- tended what most people saw on lV. Tuesday night as the Presidential Gala. Called the American Gala, the show was actual ly a dress rehearsal for the televised event. "The performers weren't nearly as relaxed as they were the night before, and the Fleetwood Mac performance on T.V. was lame compared to Monday night Gardner said. Bill Gheen said the Gala conveyed a message beyond the entertainment. "This kind of thing instills a positive attitude in people that we can change the future for the better Gheen said. Other members of the group went to a Youth Town Meeting in which they participated in a Question and Answer session with Congressional leaders such as Maxine Waters (D-Ca), and Patricia Schroeder (D-Co). Member Steve Benzkofer said, "The Representatives really focused on the is- sues currently affecting the Administra- tion such as the policy or. the Haitians and race relations Despite standing almost a block away from the stage, the College Demo- crats were able to obtain tickets for all of their members to the swearing-in cer- emony Wednesday morning. "I thought Clinton's speech was very effective, and Maya Angelou's poem was very moving also Benzkofer said. Donning tuxedos and evening gowns, the fun began in earnest later that evening as the group was represented at several inaugural balls across town. Several people, including Gheen, made a brief appearance at the Youth Ball, one of the 11 official balls held that evening. "It was basically stale and bor- ing, in part because they invited more security than guests Gheen said. Later, the College Democrats pro- ceeded to the North Carolina Inaugural Ball, where they began to enjoy them- selves. "It was well-organized, and they had a good spread of food and an open bar Blue said. ' "We met and talked with Gov. Hunt, the North Carolina Congressional del- egation, and the entire Council of State. It made me feel like we were really playing a part in government Blue said. To fin- ish off the evening in style, some enter- prising Democrats found a discount lim- ousine service to take them back to their See INAUGURAL page 3 Autopsy findings have de- termined that the sudden death of ECU student Richard Louis DeOliveira was a result of natu- ral causes. According to the medical examiner's office at Pitt County Memorial Hospital, the autopsy showed that DeOliveira was a victim of Ischemic heart disease, a condition defined by the small size of DeOliveira's coronary arteries. These arteries depleted the level of blood supplied to DeOliveira's heart, and the lack of circulation of this blood caused DeOliveira to suffer a fatal heart attack. DeOliveira, on the morn- ing of December 4, collapsed and lost consciousness while walk- ing to a friend's apartment after a night in downtown Greenville. When his companion noticed DeOliveira was having diffi- culty breathing, he called for emergency assistance. Deoliveira was trans- ported to Pitt County Memorial Hospital, where doctors pro- See AUTOPSY page 4 ECU'S College Democrats listened to a speech by Vice President Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, at the Youth Inaugural Ball while they were in Washington, D.C. last week for the presidential inauguration. Photo Courtesy ECU College Democrats College Democrats prepare to fight tuition increase By Jason Williams Staff Writer Though the ECU College Demo- crats primarily used the past week to celebrate their victories, some mem- bers of the group began organizing for their next campaign, that of trying to prevent an increase in tuition. Last Tuesday, Thomas Blue, presi- dent of the group, and others touted the Capitol, going door-to-door speak- ing with North Carolina's Congres- sional delegation. "Everyone re- sponded positively, and seemed like they wanted to help Blue said. Blue also said that Rep. Martin Lancaster in particular is committed to fighting for college students, as ECU now falls in his district. The North Carolina Inaugural Ball on Wednesday afforded another occa- sion to speak with government leaders about the proposed tuition hike. Blue said that when asked if he would help keep the cost of an education See TUITION page 3 Inter-Fraternity Council prepares for spring Rush Organizers hope for a new, positive image By Joe Horst Staff Writer ECU fraternities have been on thegothepastfew weeks withprepa- rations for their Spring rush activi- ties. Starting today and running through Thursday, the various fra- ternities will hold activities that will allow prospective members to get acquainted with present members and the fraternity life. Bids from each individual fraternity will be given out Thursday night after midnight. "RushJ is all what the rushee wan's to do said Ian Eastman,Inter- Fraternity Council president.

If he didn't like someone in that house, the rushee didn't want to go there, he could go somewhere else A major aspect of the spring rush this year will be the nightly running of the 1FC transit service. One bus will circulate among the residence halls on campus and drop individuals off at various fraternity houses and meeting places through- out the city. "We're renting one of the ECU Transit buses Eastman said. "The bus should be around every house every 30 minutes. We're going U i get it going from 8 p.m. to 10:30-11:00. It's free of charge for all potential rushees Each fraternity will follow its own schedule of activities for the three-night period of spring rush. Events range from get-togethers with various sororities to slide shows and presentations highlighting each fraternity's offerings. Eastman has taken over the job of IFC president this semester because of the previous president's graduation and plans to continue toe upward swing that IFC has been having. "I want to see the image of the fraternity on this campus to im- prove Eastman said. "I want it to be the top organization on this cam- pus. The fraternities are just trying to give both the fraternities and the school a positive image. "When people see fraternity banners outside, I want them to look at them and go, 'Golly, I've heard a lot of good things about them Eastman also plans to hold fundraisers that would raise money ranging from $5,000-6,000, which would be donated tocharitjes under thePanhellenic-lFCofEast Carolina University. "We want the campus to look at us as something they can rely on Eastman said.

The fight, which lasted about eight hours, began in the early evening of Dec. 10 and wasn't finished until the next day. The injuries included broken fingers, nose injuries, a dislocated knee and shoulder and a head concus- sion. Officials said four students were arrested and charged with malicious destruction of property, disorderly behavior and violation of a vehicle code. The melee apparently began as a stress-relieving snowball fight that escalated into a near- riot that moved from one campus to another as snow supplies dwindled, school officials said. Several cars were damaged by the snowballs, and one vehicle was kicked by a student. Magazine launched for young males A magazine begun by two Harvard University students that targets males from the ages 15-22 will be launched nationwide by Warner Publisher Services, a division of Time Warner. EDGE will make its debut April 20 with an initial press run of 200,000 copies. "We expect EDGE to make a swift and dramatic impact across the country, in Canada and internationally as well said Aaron Shapiro, an undergradu- ate at Harvard and publisher of the magazine. Some topics include sports, music, dating, partying, style and fitness. A major marketing campaign will accompany the launch, tar- geting high schools and colleges and universities. Rape victim files $18.9 million suit A young woman has filed an $18.9 million suit against George Mason University, claiming that campus police bungled the investigation of her alleged rape. The woman, who was a 17-year-old freshman at the time of the attack, said she was raped and sodomized by three men in her dormitory room at 2:20 a.m. Sept. 2, 1991, the campus newspaper re- ported. The suit claims that Jane Doe was not taken to the hospital until 6 a.m and she was not examined unti 19 a.m. In addition, the suit claims that university police "took the wrong bedding to the forensic laboratory" and "failed to monitor the collection and evaluation of evidence Compiled by Karon Hassoll.

By Jennifer Wardrep Staff Writer After much debate and contro- versy, the SGA will formallyopposea new dropadd rule proposal at the Faculty Senate meeting today. Courtney Jones, SGA president, told SGAmembersMondaythatsheplans to speak to the Senate on behalf of the organization. The rule proposal states that, "During the first week of classes of the fall and spring semesters a student may drop or add a course or courses to his or her schedule following con- sultation with his or her adviser For summer sessions, the period is the firsttwodaysofclasses,therulestates. According to the proposal, a student may drup a course during the first 40 of class meetings, and may drop up to four courses while pursuing a degree. The number of courses a student may drop is pro- rated by the number of the students' completed hours. For example, a stu- dent entering ECU with 32-63 credit hours may drop three courses. The dropadd proposal also states that, "The student's academic record will reflect any course drop This stipulation is the target of the SGA's opposition. "If that sentence were deleted, I'd be fine with this policy Jones said. "They're saying that's it is ac- ceptable forastudenttodropacourse, but then they say it will be reflected on their records. Thaf s not fair In its October resolution, the SGA gave several reasons for oppos- ing the resolution and recognizing a need for improvements to the pro- posal, including a lack of statistics on students' reasons for dropping courses.The resolution also says that the policy could prevent students from taking challenging courses and may cause them to take fewer hours of courses each semester, which would lengthen their academic ca- reer. Joneswillpresentpetitionswith about 1,060 student signatures in opposition of the policy. The Faculty Senate will meet today at 2:10p.m. in the Mendenhall Student Center Great Room. During the meeting Monday, Keith Dyer, SGA vice president, asked for committee volunteers to help produce an organizational newsletter. The SGA newsletter will be distributed twice during each se- mester, campus-wide, Dyer said. Also during the meeting, the SGAinducted new senior class offic- ers: MichaelOT-Ioppe,president;Bill Wiggins, vicepresident;and George Sartiano, secretarytreasurer.

ECU hosts medical lecture series By Karen Hassell Assistant News Editor For the next three months, ECU will be continuing to host a lecture series entitled Ethics & the Techno- logical Revolution in Health Care. "With the emphasis on high technology in our health care system and the benefits and burdens that this brings, we thought this would be a natural area for use to pursue a lecture series saidDr. John Moskop, of the department of medical hu- manities. Today the medical field in- volves working with DNA constuction, fetal tissueand extended life support systems. These areas, among others, promote ethical is- sues whichcanbedifficulttoanswer. "We want to attract a good diversity to attend said Moskop. The lecture series was orga- nized by Moskop and Loretta Kopelman of thedepartmentof medi- cal humanities, Maire Pokomy of the school of nursing and Richard McCarty of the department of phi- losophy. The first lecture was en- titled "Ethics and Human Gene Therapy" and hosted by Dr. LeRoy Walters. According to Moskop, some critics charge that altering genes is a dangerous area in medicine. Ethical considerations on which humans should be used for gene therapy test- ing and the usage of gene therapy to enhance certain physical traits all worked into last Thursday's lecture. Future lectures include"Moral Issues in Human Organ Transplan- tation" with Dr. James Childress, "Intensive Care Ethics" with Sara Fry, Ph.D RN. and "The Techno- logical Imperative and the U.S. Health Care System: A Moral and Policy Appraisal" with Dr. Daniel Callahan. Each lecture will take place on a Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the Brody Medical Science Building.

"It's a new start Rasmussen said after telling his socialist party, the country's largest, that he will be the next prime minister. Rasmussen, 49, met Denmark's figurehead monarch, Queen Margrethe II, for more than an hour late Friday to inform her of the change in government and seek her formal endorsement. Rasmussen, an economist and chairman of theSocialistDemocratic Party, later said he would present his governmentMonday afternoon. The new four-party coalition was to spend theweekendsettingupacabi- net. Rasmussen succeeds Conser- vative Poul Schlueter, who quit Jan. 15 after 10 years as prime minister when a judicial commission said he had misled Parliamentabouta policy of stalling visas for Tamil refugees. The change in government was taking place just three weeks into Denmark's six-month term as holder of European Community presidency, which rotates between the 12 member nations. The coalition's policy state- ment said the Danish ECpresidency would not beaffected by thechange, because a majority of Parliament's eight parties had already endorsed the agenda drafted by the outgoing government. Rasmussen's government will be the country's first majority coali- tion since a three-party, liberal-cen- ter cabinet resigned in 1972. The coalition holds 90 seats in Parliament, the minimum needed for a majority in the 179-seat legisla- ture. The Social Democratic-led government will have "a strong em- ployment policy, a green (environ- mental) line, a business-minded line and respect for the labor market said Rasmussen, whose party iscred- ited with building the Danish wel- fare state. Since Parliament has already adopted Denmark's 1993 national budget, the new administration was not expected immediately to make any sweeping economic reforms. NATIONAL Racially motivated murders on the rise Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (AP)�Earsplittingfireworks explo- sions resounded through the streets Saurday as Vietnamese celebrated Tet, the start of the lunar New Year. The festive mood was buoyed by a burgeoning economy and the return for the holiday of tens of thou- sands of Vietnamese who fled their country around the time of the com- munist takeover in 1975. This Tet "is the happiest in the last 50 year said Nguyen Xuan Qanh, a Harvard-educated econo- mist and adviser to the Vietnamese government. "We want to look to the fu ture, to let bygones be bygonesand work hard to rebuild our country "The economic situation is Inaugural good. The political one is good, and hopefully the American govern- ment will lift the (economic) em- bargo sometime this year he said. The celebration over the next several days will be a marked con- trast to 25 years ago, when Viet- namese communist forces launched the bloody "Tet offensive" across south Vietnam, setting the stage for the U.S. withdrawal in the Vietnam War. But few people were dwell- ing on memories of the offensive; for them Tet is a tradition of family reunions and spiritual renewal. And after three wars and yers of international isolation, many Viet- namese are looking ahead. Continued from page 1 NORTH CHARLESTON,S.C.

Were the victims singled out because of their race? In the Tampa case, the victim wasblackand all threesuspects white. Here, the victim was white and all eight suspects black. "I'd like to know what they were thinking said Mike Kelley of North Charleston, who lives a few trailers down from the scene of the rape and knew some of me suspects as neighbors. He and others shook their head s while discussing the case on a recent rainy evening. To many in the South and else- where, racially motivated crimes seem like throwbacks to the days of rynchings genera tionsago,or to more recent times when official segrega- tion creatEd suspicion, tension and hatred between blacks and whites. "We've come a long way in- sisted Frank Binarr, another disbe- lieving neighbor here. "Whites and blacks get along Even if that is broadly true, racially motivated violence is none- theless on the rise, the numbers indi- cate. More than 50 murders across the United States in 1991 and '92 were classified as hate crimes by Klanwatch, a research group in Bir- mingham, Ala that has monitored hate group activity since 1979. "Hatecrimesused to be strictly white on black. Now, it's every racial group said Klanwatch researcher Angie Lowry. As she worked on an analysisof 1992 data, shesaid, "Hate crimes in just about every category are up A just-released study of 10 cit- ies' 1992 police figures found a 24 percent rise in bias crimes from '91. The study, prepared for the Los An- geles law firm Stroock & Stroock & Lavan, was part of a U.S. Supreme Court brief in defense of a Wisconsin law increasing penal ties for ha te-mo- tivated crimes. In some ways, the Florida and South Carolina crimes were mirror images, with numerous eerie paral- lelsbutthe races of victim and attack- ers reversed.Both victims, authori- ties say, were chosen at random. Christopher Wilson,31, a black New York tourist, was abducted at gunpoint from a Tampa-area shop- ping center on New Year's Day. Police say he was driven to an isolated area, robbed, doused with gasoline and set ablaze. Burned over 40 percent of his body,heremains hospitalized.Three white men who worked in a local labor pool have been charged with attempted murder. Just two days earlier in North Charleston, police say, 25-year-old Melissa McLauchlin was abducted while walking across a street, taken to a trailer park, raped by at least five men, then driven out of town, shot six times and dumped on a rural road. Five men have been arrested and a sixth is being sought on mur- der, rape and related charges; two women have been charged as acces- sories. All the suspects are black. In each case, there is chilling evidence ma t race was at least part of the motive.

Tina Stilley, who dated DeOliveira for nearly six months before he died, said that DeOliveira was the kind of per- son who hated to cause his friends and family distress, and believes that if he could, he would do his best to alleviate the sadness those close to him feel. "Richard was a very thoughtful person Stilley said. "If he had known he was going to die ahead of time he would have done everything he could to put the pain on himself and take it away from everybody else Stilley said that DeOliveira had many friends at the univer- sity and was "a very well-liked" peison, and that she could hon- estly think of no flaws in her relationship with him. "Our relationship was per- fect from the very beginning, the first moment that I saw him, it was real strange because I knew it was an immediate bond we went riding on his motorcycle, it was the first time I'd ever been on one He was the only guy I'd ever kissed where I didn't feel awkward kissing him the first time. Nothing about dating Richard was ever difficult Stilley said that DeOliveira was very motivated in school and in life, as he wanted to be a success. She said he was very close to his family and main- tained a good relationship with them. She said he was the type of person who liked to plan ahead and believes that if he had lived they would have eventually married . Stilley said that she could not comment on what her fond- est memory of DeOliveira was, because it was impossible to de- cipher that from any other time. "Every moment with Rich- ard was wonderful Stilley said. that night was the fact that mem- bers of the group against abor- tion had their children present, but no children were on the pro- choice side. As the night progressed, both groups chanted and sang songs in support of their indi- vidual causes. At one time, both groups inadvertently joined to- gether in a rendition of "Amaz- ing Grace Through the night, religious hymns vied with chants of "We shall overcome" and "The gag rule is dead Newly elected President Bill Clinton overturned the contro- versial "gag rule" on this anni- versary, freeing up any publicly funded health clinic to mention abortion as a viable alternative to pregnancy. This change does not affect the recent Supreme Court deci- sions affecting the various choices available, nor do some feel that Clinton will necessarily make things easier for pro-choice individuals. "(The Court) has made de- cisions in certain states, for ex- ample, that a minor must have permission of a parent or court- appointed representative said Dr. Marie Farr, an ECU English professor.

East Carolinian January 26, 1993 Opinion Page 8 Roe v. Wade viewed as liberal milestone Friday commemorated the 20th anniversary of one of the most important days in the freedom of choice movement, the Roe v. Wade decision. In 1973, the Supreme Court decided in this landmark case that a woman had the right to abort her pregnancy in the first trimester (three months) in conjunction with her doctor's "medical judgement in the second trimester, the state could regulate abortions "in ways that are related to maternal health and in the last trimester, the state could "regulate, and even proscribe" abortions with the exception of where the birth may endanger the mother's health More recently, the Supreme Court has the freedom of choice amendment is still very much in danger ECU sophomore Thomas Blue adoption and keeping the baby. Abortion is the right and the choice of the woman involved. Though this issue should not be without its regulations, over-regulating it is not the answer. Regulations should be in place to aid the mother in her decision, not hinder her once she has made that decision. The recent restrictions placed by the Supreme Court come dangerously close to harming the essential right of choice given to all Americans. Restrictions that are placed should be for the sole purpose of regulation; and that regulation should follow Wade's rule and be concerned with the health of the mother. The editorial board at The East Carolinian does not advocate the killing of babies; rather, placed certain guidelines and restrictions on we advocate the ability of a pregnant woman to the process of getting an abortion. In some make her own informed and knowledgeable states, a minor must get written permission choice about the matter, from her parents before getting an abortion Abortion is not the only alternative offered and some wives are required to get permission to a future mother; it is just one of many that from their husbands. she may choose from. Newly elected president Clinton honored Freedom of choice is an essential part of the anniversary by overturning the what America's forefathers dreamed that this controversial "gag rule" thathadbeen imposed, country could be. Limiting this freedom by This rule forbode any health centers from restricting the choice of having an abortion mentioning to pregnant women the option of only serves to mock the very document our having an abortion. Now, abortion has been forefathers based this country of ours on: the added to the list of alternatives that include United States Constitution. By Amy E. Wirtz Vegetarianism defined to uninitiated few Vegetarianism is not a dirty word. It is a legitimate lifestyle choice of millions. George Bernard Shaw saw a cer- tain beauty in it: "Think of the fierce energy concentrated in an acorn! You bury it in the ground, and it explodes into a great oak. Bury a sheep, and nothing happens but decay In a way, humans suffer from a sort of decay by eating meat continually in their diets. Clearly, vegetarian and near- vegetarian diets have medical, economic, political and hu- manitarian benefits that are enormous in their scope. Yet, we choose to ignore this, even when it has been reported by the U.S. surgeon general for several years that excess fat and cholesterol should be cut from our diets. Dr. Koop stated that our standard, fat-laden Ameri- can diet is "killing millions pre- maturely and ruining the lives of tens of millions Saturated fat and cholesterol come solely rrom animal products; there is no mystery in that. Granted, no one should tell you what toeat�thattends to be intensely personal. But everyone should be informed as to how hisher eating habits effect them and the entire planet. On the whole, vegetari- anism has gotten a bad rap. It has been considered something odd that some people get into, a practice that non-vegetarians tolerated. Dietary and nutri- tional organizations now agree that vegetarianism is beneficial to an overall healthy lifestyle. Well-planned vegetarian diets can reduce the risk of obe- sity, lower blood pressure and lower rates of diabetes. These diets also help people suffer less from hypertension, lung cancer, osteoporosis, kidney stones, gallstones and diverticular diseases. In addition to these obvi- ous health aspects, there are other valid reasons for the adoption of a vegetarian diet. These reasons include: (a) pres- ervation of the environment by eating foods low on the food "Think of the fierce energy concentrated in an acorn! You bury it in the ground, and it explodes into a great oak" George Bernard Shaw chain, (b) a solution to world hunger by decreasing the demand on the world's food re- sources, (c) low cost, since diets low in animal Proteins typically are less expensive than meat- based diets, and (d) philosophi- cal or ethical concerns, including opposition tocruelty to animals and attitudes toward violence. Many Americans choose to ignore the adverse effects that their diets have on others in this world. Some consider it "their own problem" and shrug it off as "none of anyone's business How wrong they are. According to Diet for a New America, over a billion people could be fed by the grain and soybeans eaten by U.S. livestock every year. That same livestock production accounts for more than half of all the water consumed (for all purposes) in the U.S. It is speculated that if Americans reduced their meat intake by just 10 percent, the savings in grains and soybeans could adequately feed 60 mil- lion people � the number of people who starve to death, worldwide, each year. Try and convince me that what you eat doesn't effect other people. It accounts for the significant reduction of tropical rainforests because of tree cutting for graz- ing land, the water shortages in so many areas of the world and even air and water pollution. I think it is the ignorance that disturbs me the most in this ongoing debate. People are simply not being educated to the benefits of vegetarianism. To make a difference, it doesn't take much. First, try eat- ing less meat. Then increase your intakeof fruits, grains and vegetables. Gradually, you'll find yourself eating less and less meat, and not even missing it. You start to lose the stomach for it and eventually end up disliking it completely. At least that's what hap- pened to me. I also developed a strange affection for cows, but I almost guarantee that won't happen to you. And one more thing: Happy vegging! The East Carolinian James R.

Scott Batchelor Inauguration symbolistic, not reality-based "The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of their succes- sors shall then begin U.S. Con- stitution, Amendment XX, Sec- tion 1. At the time of this writing, Bill Clinton will have been presi- dent for about 75 hours. That's 75 down, 34,965 to go. Yes, I'm count- ing. It's not that Mr. Clinton isn't a likeable sort of fellow that I mark the hours until his tenure expires. I'm sure he's a nice enough guy on a personal level. But his ideas are wrong-headed, and, contrary to what some may think, ideas do have conse- quences. Take his obsession with symbolism, for example. Clinton's pre-inaugural festivities absolutely oozed with symbolic gestures. There was a mass touchy-feely, Up-With-Change fete staged near the Lincoln Me- morial via HBO; Clinton took the same travel route to Washington that Thomas Jefferson took for his inauguration; there was even a replica of the Liberty Bell on hand which the president-elect could "ring in" change across the land. If Clinton's inaugural events became a work of literature, it would no doubt be an allegory. I half expected him to break out in a verse or two of "If I Had a Hammer But I guess that's brother Roger's department. Then there were the inau- gural balls. Several of them. I knowClintondeeplydesired that everyone in America could at- tend the inaugural celebration, but come on. This change of power sported more balls than a pool table. Clinton attended most, if not all, of the parties (qualify- ing for honorary statusasan ECU student). It was in association with these bashes that I first heard the word "people's" being bandied about. The melange at the Lin- coln Memorial was billed as "The People's Inaugural Celebration or something like that. Watch out for anything that begins "The People's Com- munist North Korea calls itself the Democratic (there's a laugh!) People's Republic of Korea. Like- wise, Albania is The People's So- cialist (at least they're honest) Re- public of Albania. Come to think ofit, the People's Republic of Co- lumbia wouldn't be a bad name for Washington, D.C if it achieves statehood. (I'm all for truth for labeling.) This brings me to President Clinton's inaugural address. Of Bill Clinton will have been president for about 75 hours. That's 75 down, 34,965 to go. this speech, the Greenville Daily Reflector wrote: "With a forceful inaugural speech punctuated with the themes of his campaign, Bill Clinton set the tone for the new administration, saying America must be bold to face its many challenges Bill Clinton's speech set the tone for his admin- istration, alright, and that tone was symbolism over substance. Let us review. Hard-line communist politi- cos in Russia threaten to reinsti- tute a pernicious form of govern- ment we saw emasculated dur- ing the Reagan-Bush years; in So- malia, people are still starving to death and dying from weapons fire; Bosnia-Hercegovina isa daily threat to neighboring European states; Iraq's Saddam Hussein continues to defy lawful U.N. sanctions despite repeated military reprisals from U.Sled forces; Pakistan has the A-bomb, or the ability to put one together, and may have destructive designs on India; the E.Cs Maastricht Treaty is looking a little green around the gills; and Haitians are fleeing their country for America in bathtubs, canoes and just about anything else that'll float. Clinton's speech didn't touch on these topics much. Al- ways the savvy politician, he stuck with the empty, misleading rhetoric which got him elected, most of which dealt with domes- tic issues. President Clinton spoke of the U.S. economy in a somber tone adopted by many a hand- wringing liberal. What he didn't mention was the fact that our economy, while not experienc- ing a boom, is growing steadily, healthily and is stable. He also didn't mention that fact that the recession, which became a rally- ing point for Clintonites during the campaign, ended in March of 1991, and that we've been climb- ing out of it slowly and surely ever since then. On the social front, Clinton sprinkled his speech with the usual insipid platitudes so com- mon to Democratic rhetoric. It was a rehash of the ol "I feel your pain spiel. Well, here's a newsflash for you readers out there: regardless of what Bill Clinton says, there is little power in a president's purview to con- - trol social problems largely im- mune to government. "For ex- ample ascolumnistGeorge Will writes, "the inadequacy of edu- cation in grades K-12, and the urban regression in the midst of societal prosperity, are problems of cultural values, character, behav- ior and family breakdonm (italics added).

A blonde woman straddling an older man in bed. He is tied to the bedpost and later found dead. Investigators swarm the boudoir, picking clues and joking over the various equip- ment and accessories discovered there. The woman is later accused of murder during sex and the man assigned to help her becomes at- tracted to her while not yet con- vinced of her innocence. Basic Instinct, you ask? Nope, but the makers of Body of Evidence would love you to think of their movie so highly. Or be able to claim their product is as good as Paul Verhoven's thriller from last year. So does Body of Evidence measure up? Not even close. Rebecca Carlson (Madonna) is accused of seducing older men in order to get into their wills and then killing them with sex. No, really. Their heartsare feeble and they become soenthralled, they kick off. Frank Dulaney (Willem Dafoe)isherattorney,a family man who becomes attracted to her fe- tishes and attitudes. Body is a courtroom drama and during the trial, the DA uses her reputation as a wanton to portray her as afemme fatale . As Frank tires to fight the media and a hard-nosed judge ( Lillian Lehman, in the movie's best- written role), he also is frustrated with the DA's evidence against Rebecca, especially when she tells him so little in her defense. Each revelation in the court leads to a sex scene in which Dafoe becomes more adventurous as Rebecca controls him more. Body suffers from not being able to exploit a good theme. Direc- tor Uli Edel is unwavering in his attempt to film a murder mystery but Brad Mirman has written a subtle tale of conflicting attitudes toward sex and how society views those outside sexual conservative- ness. Set in Portland, Or the movie has numerous references to an assumed collective attitude. Frank argues thafpeopleherehavepretty conservative viewsof sex Rebecca responds, "No they don't. They just don't talk about it The media covering the trial is cordoned off in a balcony, hoveringover the balcony like vulture but do they want to knowaboutthemurderorthelurid details of her sex life? Rebecca is also convinced the jury hates her. "The women think I'm a whore and the men see me as every chick that blew them off in a bar The DA tries to equate her libido with an ability tocommitmurder. He argues that her interest in S & M makes her more capable of killing her lover than a sexually-passive woman. The true story in Body is Dafoe's seduction. Initially a devoted hus- band and father, he is amused and later enticed by her penchants. With each encounter, he is physically scarred in someway. She pours hot candle wax on him and later they make love while he lies on top of broken glass. It is a theme of sacri- fice involved in a new experience, an initiation of sorts. It also fore- shadows possible danger for him if their sex continues. His stigmas are comparable to Dimmesdale from "The Scarlet Letter" and Lucy and Mina's corruption in Bram Stoker's Dracula. Edel and Mirman try to keep the murder plot as tangible and debatable as the "did she or didn't she" ending of Instinct. However, the screenplay doesn't have near enough intrigue and detail. In fact, Body is lacking in comparison in many ways. Instinct isawell-photographed. See BODY page 11 Art message conveyed through work Sparrow leans toward the dark and brooding By Mike Harrison Staff Writer Mendenhall hosted a series of paintings by ECU School of Art senior, William Craig Sparrow. The show ran from Jan. 10 -17. Sparrow's work represents a variety of art media and materials. Sparrow occasion- ally produces a vibrant painting, but most often paints works that Are dark and brood- ing. "Being able to relay messages through painting, other than the written word, is an important characteristic of an artist Spar- row said, adding he likes to choose subjects that he is familiar with. Choosing works for the show was a col- laborative effort by Sparrow, a professor, a painting faculty advisor, as well as an art education advisor. Sparrow also met the fac- ulty inMendenhall.Aftertheshowwasup,he had to present slides of the paintings to the art media center. Approval of individual paintings and their content was done by Sparrow and advi- sors. Nevertheless, subject matter was a less serious issue in Sparrow's show than the paintings' overall effectiveness. "I could tell by being with the work and seeing it everyday which pieces were weaker and which were stronger Sparrow said. "Sometimes space is a limiting factor when putting together a show Sparrow added, citing the Mendenhall showing as an example. He originally intended the gallery to show 22 to 23 paintings. Space limited the number to 19. "Criticism can be very difficult for an artist sometimes Sparrow said. "Being an art person and having your work scrutinized � literally trashed at times � by professors, you really ha ve to have a thick skin Sometimes a person's artistic taste is to- tally separate from what he paints he said. Adding, "the only thing a lot of people wan t are valentinesonthewallordeer pain tings� you know, these ducks-on- the-pond things 'cute' things Sparrow said he thinks ECU School of Artisagreatart school.

He has worked all through college, han- dling every job from sales to driving a forklift truck. Hehasalso worked athis old high school, GreeneCentralHigh,teachingstudentstopaint Sparrow uses subjects in his works that have character. Old, weathered objects are his favorite. His paintings are sometimes mono- chromatic, often containing a lot of black paint. He paints to create an image of movement and energy.

One day I might work three to four Sometimes he leavesa particularworkalone fora longtime. When he works onitagain later, he can approach it with a fresh perspective.

Ttie East Carolinian January 26, 1993 Lewis stays true to the game, next assist goes to kids Pirate star hopes to teach values to misguided youths By Jason Tremblay Staff Writer Senior James "Pookie" Lewis, in his final year as East Carolina's alternating forward and center, is preparingforhisimpendinggradu- ation with a sense of purpose, hope- ful and ready for a promising fu- ture. A Justice major focusing on ju- venile delinquency, Lewis hopes to one day aid troubled children in their reformation. Gting grade school counselors and probation officers as possible career options, Lewis feels sympathetic toward misguided youth. "I always wanted to do that, always just wanted to make a dif- ference in a kid because my life wasn't easy, and I thought I kind of got a feel for kids, you know, espe- cially delinquent kids or kids with problems Lewis said. Despite a troubled childhood, Lewis proudly proclaims the strength and love of his family, as well as his admiration for them. With 2 brothers and 3 sisters (com- monly known as Baaahb, Boo-Boo, Mynie, Dean, Pig, and of course, Pookie himself,) there seems to be no shortage of positive role models in the Lewis household. James is also very proud of his parents, and appreciates the chances that he has been given. "You really don't realize how lucky you are until you get away fromyour family Lewis said, "and I'd just like to say thanks to them Lewis comes to ECU from Batesburg, SC with a positive atti- tude about Pirate basketball. "We got something set out to provethisyear.I thinkalotof people got doubts about us, a lot of people don't believe in us, and I guess be- cause it's been a traditional thing for an ECU basketball team. We've got the talent and we've got the coaching to do it this year Lewis said. When asked aboutcompetition on the team. Lewis shrugs with Zen- like understandingand explainsIf you want to get some playing time, you better practice hard and show your talent and give 110 percent. If you don't, they're there to take your spot With his final season almost half over, Lewis looks back on his basketball career as a positive learn- ing experience, one which he will miss. "Yeah, in a way I think I'm going to miss it a little, you know, being away from basketball and everything, but life goes on. The experience and stuff I have learned from basketball have prepared me for what I have to confront later on in the future said Lewis. Regarding the renovationof the Minges athletic facility in 1994, Sports Page 12 Photo by Dail Rd LOOK! James Lewis finds a path for the ball despite his self-inflicted blindness. He vision for the future is much more clear. Lewis maintains an attitude of de- tached benevolence about the project, owing to the fact that he will never play in the improved facility professionally. "Thenewkidsareexcited about it Lewis said I think it will bring a different typeof atmosphere here, but ECU players are playing in something new, and they want to establish themselves in that place. I won't get a chance to play in it he adds, "but still, I think if s some- thing good towards the sport Lewis believes that the im- proved facility will bringmore sup- porters to tine ECU home games, and says that the fans are an impor- tant aspect of the game for the ath- letes. "Just come out and talk to us Lewis said, "askus,you know,how's everything, how's practice going, and showing they're concerned, which they've been doinga good job of so far. We appreciate stuff like that, that gives us an extra boost to do better Swimmers make a winning splash By Brent St Pierre Staff Writer Quick quiz! What is the most successful athletic program this year at ECU? A. Football, B. Men's Basketball, C. Women's Basketball or D. Men's and Women's Swimming? If you answered "A" it is ob- vious you are having flashbacks from last year and are suffering from severe football withdrawal symptoms. If you answered "B" or "C" it is equally obvious that you are innocently mistaking ECU basketball with its more suc- cessful twin brother in Chapel Hill. Thatonly leaves one answer, the correct answer. "D the men's and women's swim team. East Carolina's swim teams are off to their greatest start ever. The men are 10-0 and have yet to be challenged. The women are 9-1 and in position to post the greatest one- year turn around in the 13 years that Coach Rick Kobe has been involved with ECU swimming. On Jan. 16 the Pirates drowned the Duke Blue Devils. Last year the Devils handled the Pirate's easily, defeating the men 132-111 and the women 129- 114. But a year later, the emer- gence of a loaded freshmen class had the Pirate's poised for re- venge. Chanting the cry "Dookie doesn't swim it floats" the Pirates went forth and buried tile visit- ing Blue Devils from Durham. The men were victorious 147-88 while the women won 129-111. The victory by the men tied the ECU record for consecutive vic- tories at eight. On Friday, the Pirates hosted the College of Charleston. Kobe's Pirates had little trouble in route to a 129-96 pasting of the Cougar women. Weary that the upset minded Cougar's might feel that the luck of their basketball team may have rubbed off on their swim team, Kobe's men quickly reminded them that this is not basketball and we are not Geor- gia Tech. The men rolled to a 123- 81 victory. The men were led by a pair of triple-winners, Patrick Cassidy and Brian Soltz. The ladies had three triple-winners in Tia Pardue, Beth Humphry and Jackie Schmieder. The Pirate's had little time to savor their victory because the Monarchsof Old Dominion were coming to Minges next. This important conference meet served as a calling card to the rest of the Colonial Athletic Conference. The Ladies swam to an easy 134-95 victory. They were led by triple-winner and senior co-cap- ta?n Tia Pardue. The men were equally as im- pressive, winning 126-100. The men were led by triple-winners Derrick Nelson and Brian Soltz. Kobe was pleased to say the least. "The victory by the men broke the all-time consecutive wins record and puts us in posi- tion to win the CAA champion- ships Kobe said. "The win by the ladies ties the greatest start See SWIM page 14 � rs�Wmm 1 pcuVS.Fla.At Ian;m ECU (74) Minfgftrb m-am-ao-taPfp Jones 1234i04)0-1008 Lyons 257-163-43-42019 Richardson 140-10-01-1320 Hunter 291-50-53-5112 Young 113-50-13-5136 Peterson 29M4-11-15112 Gill 294-94-64-82212 Armstrong 51-1OOOO032 Lewis 182-42-42-3016 Copeland281-45-72-6127 Totals 20025-5718-3122-38151574 Percentages: FG - .439, Ft. 580,3 pt Goals: 6-20 - 300, Team Rebounds - 4, Blocked Shots - 3, Turnovers -16, Steals -10.

The world may never know. Photo by Biff Ranson Payne's Bucs go Owl-hunting By Warren Sumner Assistant Sports Editor The ECU men's basketball team, plagued by the tough competition in the CAA conference, has faced many tough teams,as is reflected in thePirates'6-o record. They have been forced to scratch and claw in every contest they have played, just to have a chance of winning, or at least not getting blown out How relieved the Pirates must have beenafter their 7460thrashingoftheFlorida Atlantic Owls in Minges on Thursday night The Pirates never trailed against the Division II Owls and outmatched their op- ponents from the outset of the game. Strong inside shooting by Anton Gill and Curley Young dominated the Owls in the first half as the Pirates put together a 11-0 run mid- way through the period to knot the score at 30-12. An Owl timeout was calledat833, but was answered with a Lester Lyons three- pointer. The Owls attempted a comeback led by theoutsideproduction of guard Elvin Hazell,butthePirates,relyingontheirphysi- cal advantage, took a 16-point lead to the locker room at halftime. Both teams came out gunning when play resumed as the contest became a scor- ing exhibition at the beginning of the second half. Lester Lyons and Hazell traded slam dunks and outside shots, but the superior talent on the Pirate squad overwhelmed the Owls. The Pirates, despite outmatching the Owls on die inside, put forth a perimeter onslaught to put Florida Atlantic behind by 18 with 5:00 remaining. The Owls then pro- ceeded with a desparation "foul-a rama" to try to pull closer with 73 percent shooting from the line, but could not bridge the gap the Pirates had built throughout the game. ECU pool tournaments break out By Billy Weaver Staff Writer The ECU men's Billiards Tourna- ment, held Thursday Jan. 21 in Mendenhall, saw 32 players contending for the title. The tournament was open to all ECU students, with the only re- quirement being a minimum 2.0 g.p-a. Lynn Jobes, Director of Student Union, said that this year's competition entries were "slightly down from last year which may be a result of the recently instated 2.0 g.p.a. requirement. "We would rather have less en tries and higher academics she said. The lower numbers, however, only en- hanced the intensity of the competition. Each contestant was shooting for the chance to represent ECU in the Associa- tion of College Unions-International re- gional tournament held at the Univer- sity of Tennessee, in Knoxville. Last year's winner, Rodney Strickland, was eliminated in the final four by Shawn Bartley. Winning first place from the "losers" column in this double elimi- nation contest, Bartley will ay the winner of the best 2-of- 3 between Lewis Croom and Devin Scully. Both Scully and Croom being undefeated throughout the tournament, Bartley must defeat the winner twice in order to advance to the regionals in Ten- nessee. These final three contestants will shoot it out Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. in the Mendenhall Billiards Center. Check it Out There will also be a women's preliminary held tonight at 7 p.m. in the Mendenhall Student Center. Lady Pirates earn first CAA victory By Kevin Hall Staff Writer trying to erase the goose-egg in the win column of their conference record, the East Carolina Lady Pirate basketball teambattled AmericanUniversity inMinges Coliseum Friday night. Head coach Rosie Thompson was pleased with her team's performance and, moreimportantly,their first conferencewin. "We won and that'salwaysgood Coach Thompson said, after the 70-62 vic- tory. "We shot the ball well from the out- side, and Toina (Coley) continues to play good defense for us Coley, a Senior guard, p:ckpocketed the Lady Eagles five times, to improve her conference best steals total to 52. Coley also scored a career high22 points. The Pirates grabbed an early 7-0 lead, but American was able to creep back into the game. ECU was charged with eight fouls before American received their first The partisan Pirate fans on hand in Minges voiced their displeasure to the referees throughout the game. However, the Pirates led the entire way, except for a 21-21 tie with 6:15 left in the first half. ECU fired back with one of their many offensive spurts to extend the lead to 31-21, before the Eagles closed the gap to 31-27 at the half. Less than a minute into the second half, American's first-half scoring leader Karen Jenkins went down with a knee in- jury. The Eagles played without her ser- vices for the remainder of the game. ECU grabbed several 10-point leads in the second half, but the stubborn Eagles hung tough and cut the lead to 52-49 with 7:00 left, but didn't get any closer. ECUexploded ona 15-2 run, keyed by some nice no-look passes by seniorpoint guard Gaynor ODonnell. O'Donnell, the nation's assist leader, dished out 12 and also scored ten points. CAA leading scorer Rhonda Smith continued her bid for conference player of the year, achieving her seventh double- double of the year with 15 points and 11 boards. In order to stay close in this year's conference race, the defending CAA regu- lar season champion Pirates desperately needed this victory. ECU improved to 7-5 overall and 1-2 in theCAA.

The team is confident of suc- cess this spring and has an am- bitious schedule to toughen new players as well as test the veter- ans against some of the best teams in the southeast. One of the major challenges will come on March 20 when powerful Maryland R.F.C. visits ECU. The Terrapin ruggers have already made it to the National Championships and are peren- nial contenders for Group III re- gion honors. Pirates' missing men Several key players from last fall's successful Pirates will be missing and the team hopes their replacements are ready. Gone are props Burt Hewitt and Rich Hooten who anchored the forwards. Flanker Linwood Obriant and Chris Carney are also gone. These four represent half of the most dominant scrum in North Carolina so their absence will be sorely felt. Coach Larry Babits and his playing advisors Jason Webb, Jay Keller and Richard Moss are seeking to mould a new pack around veterans and B team stal- warts who saw extensive ser- vice last year. It takes leather balls to play rugby: Key loses have set the mighty Pirate rugby team back a few steps. They hope to recover and maintain their dominance in the state. No positions are finalized this early in the season and Babits is looking for strong, fast thinkers who could fit into this year's edition. "Actually, size is not that important if one is quick and agile and has the desire to do well said Moss, who plays full- back. Building on the '92 season Last fall, the Pirate ruggers came up short in an attempt to win the North Carolina Colle- giate Championship outright. The loss did not prevent them from obtaining a wild- card entry into the Group III Championship tournament but again, the ruggers came up short.

"All that is really needed is basic athletic skills and a desire to learn a sport which you can play into your fifties said Babits.

Keith Adkins missed a shot for North Carolina-Wilmington (11-3 overall, 3-2 Colonial Athletic Associa- tion) and teammate Tim Shaw knocked the ball out of bounds. Brendan Connor made his sec- ond foul shot for the final margin as William & Mary improved to 9-5 over- all, 2-3 in the CAA. North Carolina-Wilmington tied it twice during the final five minutes, the second time on a re- verse plus a free throw from Darren Moore to make it 57-57 with 3:44 remaining. A Reggie Veney layup off a steal put North Carolina-Wilming- ton up 59-57, their first lead of the half. Small made a foul shot to pull the Tribe within 59-58, and the teams exchanged a one-point lead until Roberts' jumper. William & Mary had lead by as much as 12 points three times in the second half, the last time at 48-36 with 12:04 remaining. The Seahawks cut that lead with a 9-0 run, including a 3- pointer from Chris Meighen and two field goals fromShaw. Small led William & Mary with21 points. ToddCauthom had 16 points and 11 re- bounds. Roberts scored 11 points. For North Carolina- Wilmington, Moore scored 22 points. Continued from page 12 ever by an ECU team Only one year ago, the ladies record was five up and seven down, a far cry from this years 9- 1 "Jeckyl and Hyde" reversal. With only two dual meets re- maining on this year's schedule the Pirates prepare for the CAA Championships next month. If the Pirates can split their remaining two meets against North Carolina and UNC-Wilm- ington, both the men and women will have posted the greatest win- ning percentage under Rick Kobe since he has bee" here. A split would be a combined record of 21-3. The best combined record before this year was 21-5 set in 1986. The '86 team went on to win the CAA Championships.
