Fire services inadequate for dorms
City and campus officials must call for local help
By Karen Hassel
Assistant News Editor
ECU students should be
more concerned about fire safety,
especially in high-rise dorms.
"In some of our high-rise
dorms, if a student were trapped
on eighth or ninth floor, we
would contacta crane operator
said Herbert Oxendine, director
of Environmental Health and
Safety.
According to Oxendine, the
department has contacted a
crane operator in Greenville and
one in Kinston. The operator in
Greenville can respond in 20
minutes.
"The snorkel that we have
will only reach seven-story
dorms said Chief Raymond
Carney of the City of Greenville.
"But, the buildings referred to
are built of fire resistant mate-
rial and have what is known as
storm pipes so the likelihood of
ever having a problem is re-
mote

The Greenville Fire Department is not equipped to fight fires in buildings
over seven stories tall, such as in this West Campus dormitory.
Carney explained that
Greenville is equipped with ma-
terials just like any major city.
The city of New York does not
have fire equipment that reaches
to the top of skyscrapers.
"What happens is that
firefighters put on a hose pack
and go into the building Carney
said.
At one time, the Depart-
ment of Environmental Health
and Safety was looking at roof
rescue with helicopter assistance
out of Cherry Point.
According to Oxendine, the
chance that a roof rescue would
be necessary is remote because
unless each stairwell was blocked
by smoke or flames, residents
would have a way out. A crane
operator would assist in getting
a student out if he or she were
trapped in a room.
"At least one stairwell in
each residence hall is built adja-
cent to a fire tower Oxendine
said. "That is a small room off to
the side of the stairwell that is
designed to pull smoke out of
the stairwell Each residence
hall should have fire escapes
marked and the routes should be
familiar to the occupants.
"I do know there is a lot of
apathy during fire drills
Oxendine said. "In my office, we
do fire drills in some of the aca-
demic buildings. Every once in a
while we run across a teacher
who doesn't want to let the class
"In my opinion, students
on the eighth or ninth floors are
at no greater risk than those on
the first floor he said.
State-of-the-art cancer
center opens at PCMH
By Warren Sumner
Staff Writer
Cancer patients in the East-
ern North Carolina region now
have a first-class medical care
and treatment center close to
their home. The Leo W. Jenkins
Cancer Center, located in Pitt
County Memorial Hospital, has
recently expanded with another
floor and a new philosophy foi
treating patients.
The center, the only major
facility of its kind in the region,
has greatly profited from the
openingof ECU'smedical school
and has already begun to better
its quality of care with its "cen-
ter without walls" philosophy
of treatment.
Dr. Donald Lannin, an as-
sociate professor of surgery and
the director of the facility, said
this new philosophy of combin-
ing all of Greenville's research
and clinical facilities with the
center'swill enable the center to
give patients the same quality
of care they would expect from
larger facilities, such as those in
Durham or Chapel Hill.
"There is almost nothing
that thev can do there that we
can't do here Lannin said.
"Here it is a lot simpler for pa-
tients to get the care they need.
Our (center without walls) ap-
proach simply representsa lack
of bureaucracy found at these
larger centers. Lots of times we
hear patients complaining
about those centers because
they feel lost. Here they can
come in and get taken care of
easily
Lannin said that the suc-
cess of the center was largely
attributable to that of ECU's
medical school, as the relatively
youngschoolhasbroughtmany
research staff and publicity to
the area.

Morality of transplants
discussed in lecture
By Stephanie Lassiter
Staff Writer

Moral issues related to organ trans-
plantation will be discussed in a lecture
today at 7:30 p.m. to be held at the Brody
Auditorium (ECU School of Medicine).
Leading the discussion will be Dr.
James Childress, former vice chairman of
the Task Force on Organ Transplantation
for the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services.
"I would en-
courage anyone inter-
ested in this area to
attend. The talk is
designed for the en-
tire university com-
munity said John
Moskop, chair of uni-
versity faculty and
professor of medical
humanities.
Currently,
Childress is the
Edwin B. Kyle pro-
fessor of religious
studiesat the Univer-
sity of Virginia in
Charlottesville. He also is a professor of
medical education and the chair of the
school's religious studies department.
Childress has been recognized as out-
standing author in the medical and theol-
ogy fields.
He will be discussing issues related
to the transplantation of organs. Among
these topics will be organ procurement
and equitable organ distribution.
Organ procurement refers to the
enterprise of obtaining organs for trans-
plantation. A great number of the organs
obtained now come from people who
agree to be organ donors. Others come
from families who agree to donate their
deceased family members' organs.
Equitable organ distribution is the
process of deciding who would be the
best recipient for the organ. Key factors
involved in that decision are medical
needs, time waiting to receive the organ
and geographical location.
Surgeons prefer to transplant or-
gans into people in the same geographi-
cal location as the do-
nor.
I his makes people
feel like they .ire mak-
ing a bigger difference
because they can more
easily relate to the re-
cipient.

Peer Health

sex education
By Elizabeth Shimmel

Sex � whether tohave it and how to
mke it safer were the focus of this year's
Healthy Relationship Week at ECU.
"Our purpose was to promote posi-

Phillips, an ECU peer health educator.
eryone has to make their own choices
lor themselves
Some of the events sponsored by the
Peer Health Educators throughout the
week, which is also known as National
Condom Week, included a student sur-
vey, a panel discussion and a student
awareness day at the Student Stores.
Many students participated in the
student awareness day activities, which
included a question wall that allowed
students to answer questions on dating,
relationships and sex, a survey that asked
students when it was too late to say no to
sex, along with free condoms and a live
remote from WZMB.
"We want tocreate awareness about
sexually transmitted diseases, particularly
AIDS Phillips said. "It's great to pro-
mote the use of condoms and show stu-
dents how to use them, but whether stu-
dents actually use the condoms is the real
concern
Phillips said she is not promoting
sex, but wants student to consider absti-
nence as an alternative. "My personal
focus is to push abstinence as an option
Phillips said. "There are students who
choose to abstain and they deserve to be
recognized
Many students agreed that educa-
tion is the key to saving lives when it
comes to sexually transmitted diseases.

Sophomore Scott Ostrander said
Healthy Relationship Week did not pro-

"You have to be ignorant or stuck in a
cave not to know what's going on
Ostrander said. "If you educate people,
then you're promoting safer sex, not just
sex
"I think students will benefit from
all of this by prompting them to think
about their behavior Phillips said.

Hunt proposes 2 percent raises for state workers
Paper stops naming rape victims
The student newspaper at Marshall University will not
print the names of rape victims this semester after triggering an
outcry last fall when it published a rape victim's name. The
Parthenon's new editor, Greg Collard, overruled the student
editorial board's January decision to print the name of a woman
who was raped during the winter term. In doing so, Collard
remanded the paper's policy to publish a victim's name in Sep-
tember 1992. The previous editor, Kevin Melrose, went along
with the seven-member board and printed the name of a rape
victim in September, and said he would not back down from
printing names in the future. Several campus groups condemned
the newspaper for violating the woman's right to privacy.
California Aggie Band probation ends
Officials at the University of California-Davis have lifted a
10-month probation imposed on the California Aggie Marching
Band after charges of sexual harassment surfaced last spring. The
probation was imposed after a former band member accused the
band director of sexual harassment. Some of the changes agreed
upon include implementing a formal grievance procedure, fully
defining the post of faculty band director, reviewing slogan
buttons and school cheers for appropriateness, and upgrading
dresscodes for band members. "The band will not tolerate sexual
harassment said Andrew McPherson, the newly appointed
band director.
Students charged in gambling ring
Three University of Texas sophomores were arrested and
charged with runninga $300,000-a-year gambling opera tionafter
police found gambling tally sheets in an apartment. Steve Waxberg,
20, Josh Paul, 19, and Justin Woolf, 19, were charged with
gambling promotion by Austin police in late January and re-
leased on personal bond. "Gambling is a serious problem. I'm
concerned when I hear that things like that are still going on Vice
President for Student Affairs James Vick told The Daily Texan.
Secretary charged in theft of funds
A former secretary at the University of Arkansas at Little
Rock has been charged with taking $8,100 from a checking ac-
count and petty cash fund. Betty L. Johnson, who used to work in
the school's art department, was charged with a second-class
felony after an audit revealed that $8,100 was missing, reported
the campus newspaper the UALR Forum.

RALEIGH (AP) � Gov. Jim
Hunt's proposed budget would
increase the number of state audi-
tors, triple the state abortion fund
and add four labor investigators
for workplacediscrimination com-
plaints.
The $8.8 billion budget plan
Hunt unveiled Tuesday alsowould
give state teachers and employees
a 2 percent pay raise.
"In short, this budget reflects
my campaign commitments he
said. "I consider ita promise kept
The plan contains about
$875.4 million in new spending over
the next two years on programs for
children, education, economic de-
velop ment,crimeand stateemploy-
ees.
It did not, however, contain
specifics about $100 million in cuts
each year that Hunt told legislators
he wants to make. He said those
recommendations will be given to
the General Assembly next week.
"I think we have a very good
chance of exceeding $100 million
(in cuts) Hunt said. This is
not the limit of what we can do. It's
just a start
The Government Perfor-
mance Audit being studied by the
Legislature con tains proposals that
would save an estimated $275 mil-
lion next year if all 400 recommen-
dations are adopted.
Hunt's salary proposals
would give state workers and
teachers a 2 percent raise next year.
In addition, 2 percent in salary
funds would be used for teacher
merit pay, and 1 percent would be
used for merit bonuses for state
workers.
Hunt also recommends tri-
pling the state abortion fund,
which pays for abortions for poor
women. The fund was cut from
$1.4 million in 1984 to less than
5500,000. Legislators rejected an-
nual attempts by the administra-
tion of Gov. Jim Martin to elimi-
nate the fund. Hunt proposes in-
creasing the fund by $1 million
next year.
The State Auditor's Office
would get five new workers for
performance audits and eight new
auditors for financial audits next
year under the plan.
The Labor Department would
get 11 new employees to help train
workers and employers about
workplace safety. It also would get
four additional workers to investi-
gate discrimination complaints.
He also would set aside $15
million for additional incentives to
attract industries to the state. He
said the special fund would be
handled by theDepartmentofCom-
merce with "complete oversight
and complete reporting" on what
incenesaregiven to spedficbusi-
nesses.
His proposals for the Univer-
sity of North Carolina system in-
clude a 3 percent tuition increase
next year and a 3.3 percent increase
the following year for in-state stu-
dents. Out-of-state students would
have a 5 percent tuition increase
each year.
He proposes no tuition in-
creases for community colleges.
His crime control spending
includes $5.6 million to expand a
boot-camp prison in Richmond
County to 180 beds and build an-
other 90-bed boot camp. Another
$10.8 million would be spent to
establish an inmate construction
program that would use prison
labor to build and maintain pris-
ons.
He also would add $2 mil-
lion for additional workers in
child protection programs. The
state Child Fatality Task Force
had sought more workers to deal
with abused children.
The Department of Environ-
ment, Health and Natural Re-
sources would get 14 additional
employees to work with industry
in reducing waste.
Hunt's proposals will be
considered by the General
Assembly's appropriations com-
mittees, which will prepare the
final budget.

Economic plan hits turbulence
before formal introduction
WASHINGTON (AP) � Af-
ter days of preparing the nation
for higher taxes. President Clinton
is coming forward with a stern
economic package the White
House says will raise taxes on all
American households earning
more than $30,000. The plan al-
ready is off to a rocky start.
Even before Clinton formally
unveils his $500 billion deficit-re-
duction package, controversy over
its tax features sent the stock mar-
ket reeling, produced taunts from
Republicans and put the adminis-
tration on the defensive.
But Clinton said the plan �
designed to produce jobs, boost
the economy and trim the federal
budget deficit�will benefit most
Americans despite the pain of
higher taxes.
"Most middle-class Ameri-
cans (are) going to be much,
much better off he contended
Tuesday.
The president unveilshiseco-
nomic package in a nationally tele-
vised address toCongressat9 p.m.
EST tonight.
The program, according to
administration and congressional
sources, will contain a stiff new
energy tax based on heat content
of various fuels � a tax that will
hit the middle class the hardest.
Also going up: taxes on So-
cial Security benefits for retired
coupleseaming more than $32,000
and the top tax rates on wealthy
individuals and corporations.
A surcharge Clinton once
said he would impose on million-
aires is being expanded to fami-
lies earning more than $250,000 a
year. It will be roughly 3.5 per-
cent, said the sources, who spoke
on condition of anonymity.
The four-year plan will
match $250 billion in new taxes
with an equal amount in spend-
ing cuts. It also boasts a $31 billion
short-term stimulus package di-
vided between job-intensive pub-
lic works projects and tax breaks
for businesses.
Despite extensive advance
work, the plan is being launched
in atmosphere of confusion and
criticism.
The Dow Jones average of 30
industrial stocks tumbled nearly
83 pointson fears that higher taxes
would short-circuit the economic
recoveiy.
Clinton shrugged it off. But
it was the largest single-day fall in
the Dow in 15 months. "We don't
like taxes. Period said Peter J.
Canelo, chief investment strate-
gist at Natwest Securities Inc.
Republicans seized on the
tax increases to remind Ameri-
cans thatClinton had backtracked
ona campaign pledge fora middle-
income tax cut.
"Hold onto your wallets
said Senate Republican leader Bob
Dole.
And the administration
found itself trying to explain
Clinton's remarks in a televised
address Monday night that those
earning more than $100,000 ayear
would pay 70 percent of the nigher
taxes.
Did that mean individuals or
couples? First the administration
wasn't sure. Then White House
spokesman George
Stephanopoulos said it would in-
clude households � covering a
husband and wife each earning
$50,000, for example.
By day's end, the White
House was saying the figure was
arbitrary, and was generated by a
computer evaluation of the total
revenues in Clinton's tax propos-
als � including the energy tax �
measuredagainsthouseholdseam-
ing more than $100,000.
Actual tax rates wouldn't go
up until the threshold of about
$140,000 for individuals and
$180,000 for families was crossed,
said Clinton spokeswoman Dee
Dee Myers. Then the top tax rate
would be 36 percent, up from the
current 31 percent.
Families making less than
$30,000 will be protected from
higher taxes by an increase in the
earned income tax credit, which
enables the working poor to get
money back if their income falls
below the level at which taxes are
owed. White House aides said.
Clinton will declare that, ab-
sent any action, the deficit will be
$41 billion higher four years from
now than the gloomiest Bush ad-
ministration estimate, or $346 bil-
lion, according to a senior official.
Thisyear's deficit is pegged at $327
billion.

Clinton supports special interest groups
WASHINGTON (AP)�Here
are the people that Senate Republi-
can leader Bob Dole describes as
everyday Americans: farmers,
nurses, factory workers, shopkeep-
ers, truck drivers and senior citi-
zens.
Who could argue that these
peopleare the backbone of the coun-
try? There are millions upon mil-
lions of them.
And guess what? They're all
represented in the capital by so-
called special interest groups.
In advance of his economic
address to Congress tonight, Presi-
dent Clinton has depicted average
Americans as the forces of light. "If
you're vigilant and vocal, we can do
what we have to do he said in his
Monday night pep talk to the na-
tion.
By contrast, the president
holds up shadowy "special inter-
ests" as obstructionist and greedy.
"Many have already lined the corri-
dors of power with high-priced lob-
byists he said.
HEALTHY
But, as Dole demonstrated
with his list, the line between the
people and the special interests is
not nearly as clea r as Cl in ton draws
it
One group with awesome
clout is the American Association of
Retired Per-
sons, 34 mil lion
strong. How
special is that
kind of an inter-
est? Is there
anyone in the
country whose
parents or
grandparents
don't belong?
There are unions for teachers,
truckers, government clerks�none
of them strangers, many of them
neighbors. There are farm groups
and business groups and profes-
sional groups and religious groups;
civil rights groups and women's
groupsand anti-tax groupsand law-
yers' groups.
"All interests are special su-
per-lobbyist Thomas Hale Boggs Jr.
argued in a New York Times essay
published Tuesday. "Is it unfair to
lobby for federal assistance to
Chrysler to save thousands of jobs?
Help defeat a constitutional
amendment on flag burning? Seek
legislation
ma king it easier
for homeless
people to
vote?"
That is
not the type of
cause or client
that normally
comes to mind
when one hears the phrase special
interest. "You might as well be talk-
ing about the antichrist said David
King, a special interest specialist at
Harvard's Kennedy School of Gov-
ernment. "It has a lot of emotive
quality about it. Nobody wants to
admit that their group has a special
interest

byist for theNational Education As-

soriation, calls his teacher union a
general interest. "When he uses the
term special interest, I honestly don't
think he's talking about us
Edwards said of Clinton. An oil in-
dustry lobbyist recently maintained
his group a Iso was too broad-based
to be special, King said. The reason-
ing: "Everybody uses gasoline. Ev-
erybody uses energy
Two senators demonstrated
the difficulty of defining a special
interest on CNN's morning news
show Tuesday. Sen. Jim Sasser, D-
Tenn chairman of the Senate Bud-
get Committee, called the super-
conducting supercollider "a $7 bil-
lion scientific pork barrel beingbuilt
in the state of Texas He said he'd
propose cutting it out of the budget
along with the space station, an-
other boon for Texas.
Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas, re-
torted that "Jim and the president
talk about investment in the future,
but they want tocut premier science
projects to invest not in the next
generation, but in thenevtelection

participate in all oi the day's ac-
tivities.
"The reaction has been great,
people are open to letting their
feelings out, and telling people
what they think Krause said.
In correlation with Healthy
Relationship Week, The East Caro-
linian ran a four-part, provocative
ad campaign promoting condom
use for heterosexual, interracial
and homosexual couples. The ads
culminated in the distribution of
three free condoms to students
who redeemed a coupon found in
the fourth advertisement.
"I think it's great that an-
other student organization took
interest in an issue that is really
important to college students
Phillips said. "I think the ads were
done in a tactful and educational
manner Phillips said the content
of the ads was tasteful and educa-
tional for students who took the
time to read them. "The pictures
were good at getting attention, yet
they weredone tasteflfclly Phillips
said. "I'm just hoping everyone
reads the educational information
that goes along with them
Several students agreed with
Phillips, with hopes that sexually
active students will learn the im-
portance of using condoms dur-
ing even' sexual experience.
"I think it's good that The
East Carolinian is doing this, they
got a lot of people to think about
safer sex, whether they want to
or not Jones said. "Promoting
safe homosexual activity is just as
important as safe heterosexual
sexual behavior
most successful young medical
school in the country, Around 20-
30 other schools started around the
same time, but none have matched
ECU's success
Lannin said that despite all
the center's strengths, there were
things that needed improvement,
especially thecenter's level of fund-
ing. Lannin said that due to the
nature of cancer, there was a great
need for hiring new specialists for
research.
"There is a misconception that
all cancer is treated in the same
way there are so many different
forms of cancer and all require dif-
ferent cancer specialists to provide
treatment. On some typesof cancer
we've made a lot of progress, but
the specialists are still needed
Dr. Albert Wiley, the former
director of the center, said that the
constant cost of keeping the most
up-to-date medical equipment
would also be troublesome to the
center.
"There is a constant cost in-
crease to keep up with technology
Wiley said. "The center needs a lot
of expensive new things to keep
up. We need a few million for
treatment and another few for re-
search we're trving to do the best
we can with limited resources, but
cancer is expensive to treat
Neither Wiley or Lannin
would comment on how they
thought theClinton administration
would change the conditions at the
center, but Wiley said he wasn't
exactly optimistic.
"I don't think things will get
any easier Wiley said. "Because
there seems to be a lot of interest in
cutting health care costs. But on the
other hand, I think the current ad-
ministration may show more sym-
pathy towards rural communities.
We'll just have to wait and see
Wiley said that the center can
currently treat "95 percent of all
cancer" and is optimistic about the
center's future ability to compete
with the facilities in Durham and
Chapel Hill.
Wiley also is hopeful about
the center's chances of receiving
multidisciplinary protocols, large
research studies funded by inter-
national corporations. "There is al-
ways a need for any kind of re-
search funding Wiley said.
The doctors said they expect
the center to grow, as they are re-
ceiving referrals from all over the
eastern part of the state, and as far
to the borders of Virginia and South
Carolina.
Lannin said that the center
has a backlog of patients that reach
into the thousands, and gains
around 1000 new patients annu-
ally. Lannin said he thinks the "cen-
ter without walls" philosophy may
have a lot to do with that.
"That is the difference be-
tween a cancer center and a doctor's
office Lannin said. "You get the
best of everything

Fire danger at ECU
largely overlooked
by students, city
Current firefighting equipment
inadequate to serve campus'
needs and concerns
Fire safety in Greenville needs to be vastly im-
proved before it's too late.
Currently, the Greenville Fire Department has snor-
kels, the elevating equipment fire trucks use, that reach
only as high as the seventh story of a building. This
forces residents on the eighth or ninth floors of some
residence halls to take their chances on a possibly smoke-
or fire-filled stairwell.
Administrators at ECU say that if circumstances
dictated that individuals were trapped on one of these
floors, a crane operator would be called to assist. The
catch with this scenario is that it would take the closest
crane operator 20 minutes to arrive on the scene.
Officials at the fire department also say that major
cities, suchas New York, do not ha ve fire equipment that
would reach to the top of skyscrapers. Firefighters would
go into the building with a hose pack to reach the upper
floors.
The problem with this is the time it would take a
firefighter to reach the eighth or ninth floor. Stairwells
may be choked off with rubble or fire and elevators are
normally not used because of their danger during a fire.
This adds to the time it would take
" to rescue a trapped individual, com-
f'J pounding the danger already
present in a fire situation.
ECU administrators have
WMn
A als� commented that the likeli-
jp hood of an individual being
(� trapped on one of the upper floors is
very slim. They say that precautions
are already in place that would make it a
rare instance where a crane operator or air
rescue team would be needed. Even the chance of
an event happening is worth a look into diminishing, if
not abolishing, that risk.
Fire safety in this city and on this campus has
become a joke. Students and instructors alike treat fire
drills as if they were a nuisance rather than a safety
precaution. Students who live in the dorms more often
than not ignore the clamoring bell they hear, passing it
off as "just another fire drill, forget it
Again, students' safety should be a prime concern
of the administration heret ECU. Basing a fire policy on
the belief that if you clap hard enough Tinkerbell won't
die is a potentially lethal mistake waiting to happen.
Sure, everybody would like to believe that the worst
won't happen in a crisis situation, but this city and
university should be prepared for any and all eventuali-
ties.
The administration or city leaders aren't the only
ones to blame, though. Apathy once again rears its head
in a campus-related issue. Students need to realize that
fire drills are not done by some har.d-rubbing, gloating
sadist who likes to see them stumble out of their rooms
at three in the morning. They are done by individuals
who are concerned that when there is a real fire, stu-
dents' safety is ensured.
Messing with the fire alarms is not funny, either.
This may be the prime reason why students don't take
the alarm seriously. They figure that some drunk person
pulled it because they thought it was funny, so why
bother? This laissez-faire attitude puts everyone at risk,
not just one lone individual. All it will take is one fire to
destroy these persons' belongings and then they will
appreciate the seriousness of further situations, but the
end result can never be justified by the means.

Attorney General issue dispels sexism in D.C
1 ��!1IJ- �. cJ .1 �
I pushed vehemently to get
Clinton elected and, regarding his
efforts so far in office, I am not
amused.
The only silver lining visible is
that the issues he has tackled so far
have led to extensive debate and
mminations.Sexuality,morality,eth-
icsand propriety have been bandied
about since he first announced he
was aiming for the Oval Office.
Clinton started off his transi-
tion to power by planning to make
the Cabinet an expanded, symbolic
chamber that "reflects America" in
diversity and concerns. Clinton had
decided to nominate a woman for
the office of Attorney General and
the responsibility tocleanupan inef-
ficient legal extension of thegovern-
ment. However, his nominees for
Attorney General have been made
politically invalid because of what
has been termed "Nannygate
Clinton's original nominee,
Zoe Baird, admitted to hiring an
undocumented foreigner (read: ille-
gal alien)foruomestichelpand baby-
sitting and then not paying Social
Security taxes for her employee. She
withdrew shortly after this was dis-
closed to the media.
The second nominee, US. Dis-
trictCourt Judge Kimba Wood, was
found to have essentially done the
same and withdrew before she was
even officially announced.
Clinton made it a hat trick by
nominating a third woman, Janet
Reno, who seems to be a safe bet,
being withoutchildrenthatneed sit-
ting and not hiring illegal aliens even
though she comes from Dade
County, Fla a region of the country
where undocumented aliens are
prevalent. Renoisscheduled to face
the Senate Judiciary Committee in
three weeks.
The debate concerns how
much of the "Nannygate" contro-
versy wasstirred up by the question
of gender.
A recent issue of Newsweek
suggests that there would not be as
extensivea background checkorsudi
disparagement leadingtoan unsuc-
cessful nomination if any of Clinton's
choices had been male.
The article stated that Wood's
hiring of an illegal alien wasn't ille-
gal until 1986aftertheemplo-ment,
and that she actually had paid her
employee's taxes. In short, she did
nothing wrong and was concerned
that any similarity to Baird's case
would hamper her cause and pub-
licly defame her � a realistic fear in
Washington.
Is the opposition to Baird and
Wood hoping to keep a "glass ceil-
ing" werworkingmotherstryingto
succeed in Washington?Such a view-
pointstrikesmeasparanoid. I would
imaginethatthedelugeofnewblood
into Congress would make such a
specific witch-huntdifficultand un-
popular. Ithasinnocapacityreached
the intensity of the debate concern-
ing homosexuals in the military.
Perhaps the more troubling
question would be why Clinton
choose the troubled legal extension
of the government to attempt an
idealisticprecedence?Anynominee
would have to be steel-spined to fix
the bureaucracy and over-manned
administration the Attorney Gen-
eral faces. Itseemsdetrimental to the
authority of the office to try to make
a nomination based with ideals over
ability. I can't help but wish a more-
recognized, more-commanding
nominee had been chosen, of either
sex. I do not denounce Clinton's
standards, but oppose his judge-
ments.
Clinton has run the risk of be-
littling the position after such media
derision. Our new Attorney General
will be seen as a third choice, and
possibly asa third-rate official. How
will her policies differ from those of
male candidate that may have ap-
peared on Clinton's list above
Reno's?
For that matter, did the presi-
dent risk nominating a woman who
may not have been as qualified be-
cause of whatboilsdown to political
idealism? Was there a male candi-
date equal to Baird's expertise who
waspassed upbecause he carries the
y chromosome? Would a male can-
didate have undergone such scru-
tiny for the position?
I believe the nomination was
fair in this regard. Since Clarence
Thomas was approved for the Su-
preme Court, nearly all political or
administrative individuals have re-
ceived renewed media attention in
regards to their past affairs, no pun
intended.
The double standard and ex-
cl usi veness of Washington concern-
ing gender is, with Hillary and the
newly-elected female members of
the legislativebranch of government,
slowly beingdiluted.Weare close to
seeingourfirstfemaleAttomey Gen-
eral. Clinton's goal of a socially di-
verse administration may be com-
ing true, bringing with it new ideas
into Washington. Unfortunately, his
only victory will be not be economic
or legislative, but philosophical.

Letters to the Editor
Slay residents angry at racism, bigots on campus
To the Editor
Concerning the article
written Thursday, Feb. 11,
1993, titles "Student Forced to
Leave Dorm Room by Resi-
dent Education" � we, the
concerned residents of Slay
Hall would like to make a cor-
rection.
First, we are not for nor
against either Staton nor Tay-
lor. We do not stand for rac-
ism, and we do not stand for
people such as Karen Hassle
(sic), assistant news editor,
who promote racism in order
to gain front page recognition.
We would, however like to
thank Hassle (sic) for invert-
ing thequality of housingcon-
ditions by turning it into a ra-
cial uproar. Because of Hassle
(sic), the racial tension of Slay
Dorm has increased from non-
existent to phenomenally high
levels.
Notes such as "Beware
� black people and white
people live here with no racial
allergies" and "Racial Bitch
(Go Home)" have appeared
mysteriously on resident
doors. We did not think this
was included with paymentof
our housing fees!
Raci sm has taken over the
campus. What is the purpose
of this university advertising
for lectures, marches,displays,
classes, etc. promoting racial
unity when the university em-
ploys and admits bigots? For
example, comments such as:
"My gut feeling is that it was a
racial issue, but the girl did
have a doctor's note" and "we
charged the white student for
a private room and the black
studenta vacant room as said
by Linda Sessoms and
Emanuelle Amaro respec-
tively, seemed to ignite feel-
ings of racial tension.
Wheredoesthisleaveus,
the non-racist students?
Sessoms, the Coordinator of
Slay Dorm, and Amaro, Assis-
tant Vice Chancellor and Di-
rector of Housing, were en-
titled to their beliefs and com-
ments under the First Amend-
ment of our Constitution, but
why is Sessoms defying confi-
dentiality and evoking art un-
derlying sense of mistrust1
Amaro also miscon-
strued this misunderstanding
out of proportion � thereby
surfacing the issue of racism.
A relatively peaceful dorm has
become tainted; racism has
now shown its ugly face, and
those who are non-racist are
trapped in its undertow.
In conclusion, we are all
here for the same reason: to
get an education and to better
ourselves for the future. As
long as there is racism, we will
continue to move backwards
in this "civilized nation We
are college students on the
brink of what America con-
siders adulthood. Take a look
around you, people! Do we
really want it to be like this?
Concerned Residents of
Slay Hall
(Editor's Note: Stories ap-
pear on the front page based on
their newsworthiness, and we
promote our beliefs only on the
Opinion page. We do not pro-
mote racism. Our intentionwas
to show how poor race relations
are at ECU. Hassell, like all our
writers, is an observer and is by
no means responsible for any re-
ported event.)

Editorial Notebook
By Joseph C Kinney
Industrialized
economics may
endanger society
The reason I write is to bring attention to
a potential problem facing our society. Of all
the problems that can be forseen to endanger
the existence of our society, they are few in
number. The most noteworthy danger of this
kind involves the possibility of nuclear war
someday breaking out on the planet.
There is another danger of this kind that
is seldom thought of. This danger involves the
long enduring mismanagement of industrial-
ized economies resulting, in time, in thedeple-
tion of life sustaining economic resources.
This is a danger worthy of inspection
given the fact that the world's financial mar-
kets are underpinned by financial futures
markets. The existence and use of financial
futures markets offers the possibility that a
financially well endowed organization could
gain secret manipulative control of world fi-
nancial markets.
Financial futures markets offer this pos-
sibility because of the financial leverage they
offer market participants in con trolling finan-
cial markets. This financial leverage combined
with presence of motive to manipulate finan-
cial markets makes the possibility of secretly
controlled financial markets a feasible one.
What about motive? Why would a finan-
cially well endowed organization ever have
sufficient motive to conspire to secretly con-
trol world financial markets? These are ques-
tions that reach to the heart of my warning tha t
something could be wrong yet unrecognized,
about our perceived economic condition.
If the United States or any other major
industrialized country were to pursue use of
fiscal policies leading it to experience bank-
ruptcy as an entire nation, it is possible that an
organization of men could become motivated
to disengage financial markets from underly-
ing economics. They could become motivated
to do so out of respect for a desire to avoid
experiencing an economic calamity resulting
from the bankruptcy of their nation.
Furthermore, if sufficiently powerful as
an organization, they might find it possible to
secretly tap central bank resources for use in
disengaging financial markets from underly-
ing economies. Use of central bank resources
combined with use of financial futures mar-
kets would allow such an organization capa-
bility to secretly disengage financial markets
from underlying economies for an indefinate
period of time.
1 hope there are people in the country
who take such a warning seriously. If what I
have just described should or has occurred,
our society could be quietly placed on an
extinction path of existence out of respect for
immoral,yet powerful, peoples' desire toavoid
experiencing an economic calamity in their
single lifetimes.
Hawed, bankrupt, yet highly industrial-
ized economies cannot be allowed to operate
indefinately without endangering their
society S long term ahilitv to survive. Such
economies use resources too abundantly and
tor too frivolous of purpose to support a

Conversing with
Noam Chomsky
Editors Note: The follounng is the
second installment of a conversation be-
tween staff writers Franco Sacchi and
Nathaniel Meade with Noam Chomsky.
TEC: You'veoftensaid that a super-
power, in order to push its aggressive
foreign policy agenda, needs to find new
enemies. In this new global village, who
will be the next enemy of the United
States?
NC: The basic enemy is always the
same. The basic enemy is always the
Third World. Now, you've got to cover
that in various ways, and for a long time
Russia, which really was part of the Third
World, was a good candidate. But it's
not there anvmore. Right now it's most
likely to be Islamic fundamentalism.
That'sa joke. The United Stateshas noth-
ing against Islamic fundamentalism. In
fact the most fundamentalist state in the
world is the closest United States ally�
Saudi Arabia.They'remoreextremeand
fundamentalist than Iran. So the United
States really has nothing against Islamic
fundamentalism, but the point is what
they call Islamic fundamentalism is in-
dependent islamic movements. This is,
by analogy, the same kind of opposition
they had to t!ie Catholic Church in Cen-
tral America. The United States was fore-
warned that it was the Catholic Church
in Central America. But they went ahead
anyway, you know, murdering the a rch-
bishop, killing priests and nuns. The
United States called it the bitter war
against the church in Central America,
and they hated them for the same reason
they hate the so-called Islamic funda-
mentalists�they were independent. In
fact, any independent force in the Third
World is going to be an enemy.
Japan ard Germany pose a much
more comple case because, forone thing,
they're so integrated with the United
States. If you really look at the actual
capital, you can't make these distinc-
tionseasily. Oureconomies are too inte-
grated. It's a transnational world.
TEC: Vice president, Al Gore, is
actively addressing environmental prob-
lems and embracing a global vision of
stewardship. Some people have sug-
gested that, with efforts to curb pollu-
tion and conserve resources, the sover-
eignty of many Third World countries
will be compromised. Could the interna-
tional focuson the environment become
another version of the New World Or-
der, a kind of ecological imperialism?
N'c Yes, in a sense, fhe West is
beginning to he concerned about envi-
ronmental problems, lake the ozone
laver. As long as the ozone gap was
spreading over theSouth,and it was just
Chilean peasants being burned toai risp
nobody reallv cared. But as �
started appea ring over northen I
and rich white folk were beingburned to
a crisp, suddenly it became a big prob-
lem. So now they're interested in that.
If you look at the Wall Street Jour-
nal,�it's a nice index�for years they've
been pooh-poohing all this stuff. Now
they admit there's a problem with the
ozone because rich white folk are in dan-
ger. Bv the time the sea level rises to the
17th floor of whatever skyscraper they're
in, they'll recognize there's a greenhouse
effect. They'll admit there's a problem.
Then the next trick will be to figure how
private capital can make a profit out of
environmental issues, and there area lot
of ways of doing that. So that's what
they'll do. Then, at that point,you'll find
the big corporations interested in envi-
ronmental issues because they can profit
from it. So yes, they'll use that as a tech-
nique in intervention.
TEC: Let's talk about some of the
forms of totalitarianism we see in our
society. Given our present context, is
there a more contemporary del in it ion ot
totalitarianism?
NC: ITiese terms of political dis-
course are not verj precise, to put it
mildly, but if we want to keep some
�leaning to them, we don't have totali-
tarianism here in the United States. What
we have is a very free society in a totali-
tarian culture. I think we have a deeply
totalitarian culture, especially the intel-
lectual classes are deeply subservient
and obedient. It's just incredible. And
they don't have the excuse that their
counterparts in Russia have�those guys
have complete fea r, these guys have com-
plete cowardice. The totalitarian ele-
ments of the culture are pretty extreme,
even though we live in a society that is
uniquely free.
TEC: Since the end of communism,
do you agree with efforts to search for a
non-capitalistic model of development,
particularly in the Third World?
NC: First of all, capitalism doesn't
exist. The only place capitalism truly
exists is in the Third World, and basi-
cally this is because we force it on them.
If anybody hail anv lingering belief thai
capitalism was a viable system, it disap-
peared during the Ireat 1 tepressk m. So
what you have is various forms of state-
integrated capitalism. I think the col-
lapse o communism should actually flC-
vtht search forother forms of capi-
talism. It's like thedt feat of fasc ism. You
know, it eliminates a barrier to social-

was Budweiser. She didn't even top it off!
Well, I stuck with bottles after that
1 think pizza and beer is an American
icon. 1 know people like to think of pizza as
Italian, but the pizza weeatisas American as
Ma's apple pie. Look it up � I have.
Anyway, I know beer goes with barbe-
cue chicken and steak and ice cream and
wha tever,butitreally goes with pizza.Speak-

thon better than the one at BoK's, but that's
me. So look, 1 like bacon, tomatoes and Feta
i heeset n my pizza. And olive oil, baby!
But 1 really don't want to talk about
pizza.
I want to talk about moochers. I hah'
'em. Ever have a cookout or party or some-
thing and vou say, "I lev, just bring what-

enough; even
the slackers who brought a loaf oi bread
brought theirown booze. But then came this
git 1 and boy and their friend, who we'll just
call Crapper, Shitter and Farter. So these
three miscreants come in with only one bottle
of wine between them. Not even a bag ii
generic chips! Now hey, that's cool if that's
all thev were going to have. But it wasn't.
So Shitter finishes both batches of Jell-O
shotsand heand Farternotonlydrinkall my
Hussong's tequila � it was a gift from a

Now look, that's mooching in the tirst de-

I didn't find out 'til Liter when 1 took the
tequila on a trip and was going to give a shot

refrain from invitingrappei and Shitter

Bui we'vt all had e pi i ien i s w ith
cheap-ass moochers. And here's h

Murray saves 'Groundhog Day'
In 1862, English clergyman Charles I .
Dodgeson, better known as I ewis Carroll,
began inventing the story of "Alice in
Wonderland" for his friend, Alice
Pleasance I indell, during a boating trip.
By Ike Shibley
Staff Writer
The ads read: "Bill is back
This is an appropriately powerful
phrase for the new film, Groundhog
Day.
The Bill in die ad is, of course,
Bill Murray. Once again Murray
proves to be one of the best comic
actors of the past three decades.
Though Groundhog Day isnot agreat
film, Bill Murray is a great come-
dian.
The gimmick in Groundhog Day
is simple; Murray's character, Phil
Connors, i s forced to relive the same
day over and over again until he
gets it right. The day he is forced to
relive is Feb. 2, Groundhog Day.
Phil works as a cynical vve.ith-
ermanatVTBH,Channel9inr s
burgh. Phil's cynicism reaches its
apex when he has to cover tht in-
nual Groundhog celebration in
Punxsutavvney, Penn home of the
famous (infamous?) groundf-iiv.
Punxsutavvney Phil.
Joining Phil the Weatherman
are Rita,a prod ucer played by Andie
MacDowell, and Larry, a camera-
man played by Chris Elliot. Al-
though not evidentearly in the film,
Phil is in love with Rita. He spends
a sizeable portion of hisenergy each
day trying to win her love.
In addition to tryingtoget Rita's
attention. Phi I manages to kill him-
self several times,by burning, crash-
ing and electrocuting his body,
krun ring that at 6 a.m. the next day
he v il be alive and awakened by
the mornti, deejays discussing
Groundh Day.
Grotmuttog Day was ably di-
rected by Harold Ramis, a comic
act r in hisown i ight Ramis knows
how r� accentuate Murray's talents;
he allows Murray enough room to
c;rry each scene by himself. R.inis
even makes a cameo as a
nei; wurgeon trying to determine
wh Phil Connors thinks he is Irv-
ing the si me day over and over.
A film like Groundhog Day pro-
vides copious opportunities for re-
curring gags. They are used exten-
sivelyrPhil meeting insurancesales-
man Ned Ryerson each morning,
Phil passing a beggar who asks for
money everyday, Phil waking up to
the same song on the radio every
morning ("I'veGot You, Babe")and
Phil walking into a huge puddle.
These are to name but a few.
Murray makes each of these
scenes vvatchable, even if the out-
come is predictable.
Groundhog Day is not without its
flaws. The story is flimsy. In most
films where something magical hap-
pens to a character some explana-
tion is usually attempted
Though some may applaud the
filmmakers for not feeling the need
to explain Thil's plight, this lack of
explanation leaves the magic unac-
counted for.
Another flaw is Phil's attraction
to Rita. Hie story never touches on
this attraction until Phil has already

lived three or four days repeat-
edly. His infa I uation is not believ-
able.
Another big problem lies with
Rita herself, or rather MacDowell.
Despi ted isagreement from agood
friend of mine, I see no craft in her
acting.
Life as a model could not be so
bad that MacDowell can't return to
the field. She may be a ttractive, but
even the ciean-cut, all-American
role, which should pose no real
challenge, seems to be hopelessly,
even haplessly, inept.
A final complaint results from
the film's length. A featherweight
comedy like Groundhog Day needs
to make its point in under 90 min-
utes. It drags for 110.
But lest you think I detested
Groundhog Day, I need to tell you
mat the film is funny. Bill Murrav
is in fine form. Despite the length,
the poor sup port and shoddy script,
Murray single-handedly makes
Groundhog Day a delight.

ago. The onJy difference was the
"Row, row, row, your boat" repeti-
tion of the lyrics. A bit trying.
The tracks continue with much
of the same sound and lyricism in
"Helen Here's where the cliches
kick in. "Bye, bye baby good bye
sings the band. Again,likein"Psycho
Buds" the lyrics are cliche and repeti-
tive.
Doolirtle isn't without some re-
demption. The tracks "Elbows" and
"Listen to the Wind" seem to indi-
cate that the band has potential to
overcome some of the silly lyricism.
This was almost shattered by

ism is wrong for the very reasons
Adam Smith pointed out, and 1
think we should overcome it.
That's the big task for the future.
TEC: Was tonight's lecture a
demonstration of democracy or
do we just live in
a system that can
tolerateanykind
of critic because
of the apathy of
the citizens?
the last track, "History Lies The
song is overdone with simple, lyric
attempts at an issue that deserves a
little moreIt'sno surpriseHistory
liesBaby diesAnd mother cries
Maybe the band should be playing
violins for this track.
Doolittle is composed of Roy
Clay (vocals, rythym guitar), Will-
iam Westcott (vocals, lead guitar),
Adam Seate (vocals, bass), Alan
Pendleton (keyboards) and Brian
Wordsworth (percussion). The band
possesses the ability to write
danceable music that is perfect for
the dub scene. A few beers, and I
don't think I would mind hearing
"Sueyand being treated likea farm
animal.
However,sittingaroundand lis-
tening to the EP leaves much to be
desired. Hell, I'll admit it I tapped
my fingers tothesongs. All the while,
though, I was strained by the shal-
low, repetitive lyrics.
As negative as this review may
seem, 1 do believe that Doolirtle will
put on a good show. Their music is
very danceableand meg' expertly

NC: That's a
good question.
Certainly the
system can toler-
ate people like
me, you know,
the fringe ele-
ments. But no-
tice it can't toler-
ate us very
much. Take Boston where I live.
It's the most liberal city in the
country. The Boston Globe is prob-
ably the most liberal newspaper
in the country. It's considered
practically communist. People
around here will say it's a com-
munist journal. I have friends
who are editors in the Globe, and
I live within these circles. Not only
can they not review a book of
mine, they can't even list my books
under work by local authors. You
know, they have a listing every
week, but none of my work can be
listed. In fact the book review edi-
tor of the Boston Globe told Pub-
lishers Weekly, the big publish-
ing magazine�for publication,
they printed
this�that she
would never
permitanybook
publisher that I
had published
with to be re-
viewed. This is
the level of
fright we have,
over the fact that
one person in
the country is
talking about
these things.
They tolerate it
loan extent, but
in a very limited fashion. You
wouldn't believe the things that
happen. I'm privileged. What
happens to unprivileged people
is a thousand times worse. But
even people who are privileged,
like me, are extremely
marginalized.
Suppose we got to the point
where we weren't marginalized.
It's not clear what would happen.
Now they ad-
mit there's a
problem with
the ozone be-
cause rich
white folk are
in danger. 9
The United States has a violent
history, very violent and repres-
sive. It's a very free society, but
when there's been any threat to
ruling class domination, it gets
extremely violent. Take a look at
what's called McCarthyism,
which is not the right word, be-
cause it was started by liberal
democrats (McCarthy was just a
latecomer). That was very taut
business. They didn't kill a lot of
people, but they threw them out.
When the Black Panthers began
to organize in the ghettos, they
murdered them. Fred Hampton's
death should be famous assassi-
nation�it's much more impor-
tant than any of ffie others. He
was a very constructive Black
Panther organizer. They didn't
care about the criminals, so they
left them alone. But Fred Hamp-
ton was a typical example of a
very constructive Black Panther
organizer, so he was killed in a
Gestapo-style raid, set up by the
FBI. The United States also has a
very violent labor history. About
seven or eight hundred American
workers were killed instrikesdur-
ing a time when no one was being
killed in Europe. So state power is
there. Whether it would be used is
hard to predict. It depends on what
level of popular support there is.

Copeland rebounds
well from adversity
By Misha Zonn
Staff Writer
During Ike Copeland's four-
year career at ECU, he has success-
fully found a balancebetweenbeing
a productive on the basketball court
and beinganabove-average student
in the classroom. His playing daysas
a Pirate have taken him through a
surprising rookie campaign, a seri-
ous knee injury and at present, a
seriousdent in theECU recordbooks.
When Copeland first came to
ECU his main goal was to work as
hard as possible, he said. He said
had no idea his hard work would
pay off immediately.
"I didn't think that I was going
to pla y tha t much my freshman year,
and it ended up that I started
Copeland said. That year Copeland
made an immediate impact on the
team by averaging in double figures
in both scoring and rebounding.
Copeland found a niche for himself
under the boards.
Copeland said he found diffi-
culty in balancing basketball and
studying,butastirnewentby things
began to fall into place.
"In the beginning it was hard,

the same thing every game by regu-

Mo' money required for Division 1-A playoff
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) � The No. 1
problemLncdlegeathtetkscouldleadtoariew
system of detenruTiing the No. 1 team in col-
lege football.
The problem is money. And one of the
possiblesolutionsisaDivisionl-A playoff that
could generate $60 million for financially
troubled athletic departments.
Althoughmostcoachesand collegepresi-
dents remain opposed to a playoff, NCAA
executive director Dick Schultz thinks there
will be one by the end of the decade. He said
Tuesday that economic pressures wiH'force
schools to seriously consider the idea.
"There are a lot of things outside the
control of coaches and presidents and athletic
directors that might take place that could have
some impact onvvhathappensin the late '90s
Schultz told NCAA College Football Forum.
At bst month's NCAA convention,
Schultz asked members to consider a one-
game playoff as a major source of new rev-
enue. While he concedes there hasn't been
much support for his proposal, Schultz thinks
that will change as more and more schools
struggle to fund theirathletic programs.
"We could do a lot with $60 million he
said.
Mostcoachesareagainsta playoff because
they believe it would destroy the bowl system.
But Schultz pointed out that the bowls are
already being hurt by the NFL's extended sea-
son, which has led to a glut of games on New
Year's Day and hard times for late December
bowls that must compete with the pros.
"Most of those non-New Year's games
have gone to syndication or cable Schultz
said. "And tlie postseason howl committee,
which had a plan to continue to raise the
payouts, has had to hold the line for the List
coupleofyearsorwewouldhavelostacouple
of bowls
While Division 1-A football and basketball
programs generally make money, almost all
other sports are in the red. And the financial
straincould get even worse as the NCAA tries
to achieve "gender equity by increasing op-
portunities for female athletes.
"Perhaps there does have to be some
paringofprograms,butIdon'ttliinkan'lxxly
wants to do anything tliat's going to damage
fcxTtballordamagebaskerballordamage men's
sports he said Instead, Schultz said, college
officials slxmld consider addingnewwomen's
sports Such as figure skating. "It's a beautiful
sport with tremendous interest in the Olym-
pics he sak I "N laybe we have to take a look
at some of these programs. Maybe we're not
searching in the right areas to determine what
the interests and abilities of women are
And how will schools pay for new or
expanded women's programs? In addition to
a football playoff, Schultz has suggested the
creationofanNCAAlicensingdivision similar
to those in the NBA, NFL and major league
baseball.
Schultz said collegiate licensing gener-
ated $60 million last year, but only $10 million
went to universities and $2 million to the
companies thathandled the licensing. The rest,
he said, went to makers of counterfeit and
pirated products.

Owners consider expanding playoffs
PHOENIX (AP) � Baseball
owners, no closer to hiring a com-
missioner, are considering dou-
bling the teams in the playoffs to
eight � although change may
have to wait until 1995.
John Harrington of the Bos-
ton Red Sox, chairman of the
schedule-format committee, said
early results of a fan survey
showed support for doubling the
size of the playoffs by adding a
third tier.
Owners still seemed stuck on
defining theduties of thecommis-
sioner, whose office has been va-
cant since Fay Vincent's forced res-
ignation on Sept. 7. But they
seemed tobe taking tentative steps
to the most fundamental change
in the game since 1969.
"There's a lot of strong feel-
ings in the game to make some
changes Harrington said.
Milwaukee Brewerspresident
Bud Selig, chairman of the ruling
executive council, said last month
tha t a survey of about 2,000 people
showed more support for change
among younger fansand less sup-
port among those who attended
ga mes more frequently. A second
groupofsurveyswassenttoabout
11,000 season-ticket holders, and
Harrington said those results are
still being tabulated.
"The two surveys were quite
close Harrington said. "A few
variations
Because schedules must be
provided to the Major League
Baseball Players Association by
July 1, Harrington said it was be-
coming harder to make
postseason change s for 1994.
"It's still possible, but the win-
dow isclosinghe said. "It's more
likely '95
The survey also asked ques-
tions about three divisions in each
league, interleague play and the
designated hitter. Harrington said
there may be a need for additional
surveys,and thatany changeswere
likely tobe gradual.
"I don't see us making a series
of changes all at once he said. "It
will be a progression of changes
Eddie Einhorn of the Chicago
White Sox, another advocate of
change, said owners understood
they needed to negotiate changes
with the union.
"All we can do is discuss it
and approve it from our stand-
point he said.
George W. Bush of the Texas
Rangers indicated there might be
some owners against change. So
far, that group has been silent.
"I'm a traditionalist he said.
Einhorn, a member of the tele-
vision committee, said it was un-
likely that starting times for
postseason night games would be
earlier this season. World Series
games were criticized last fall for
their 8:35 p.m. EDT starts, precipi-
tating late endings.
"Theyhave'60MinutesThey
have commi tmen ts that we've con-
templated when they made the
deal Einhorn said of CBS. "In a
new deal, we would like to work
that into it
CBS Sports president Neal
Pilson has said, however, that he
would consider earlier start times
if baseball allowed the network to
reduce its rights payments.
Members of the restructuring
committee and executive council
met Tuesday night and were set to
give an update to all owners dur-
ing today's major league meeting.
Although the committee was told
to redefine the commissioner'sjob
by Nov. 1, it has been unable to
come up with a final report and
some officials say there is a split.

Barry ripe for NBA after
being picked by Bucks
MILWAUKEE (AP) � Even
through he doesn't shoot free throws
underhanded, Jon Barry'sgame still
features many similarities to his Hall
of Fame father, Rick.
Like dad, Jon can shoot the 3-
pointer and he's not afraid to show
hisemotionsorcomplain toofficials.
"This was just one game, big
deal the Milwaukee rookie said
Monday night a fter scoring a career-
high 18 points in the Bucks' 128-122
victory over the Charlotte Hornets.
But for Barry, buried on the
Bucks bench since being acquired
from Boston in eirly December after
a longcontracthassle with theCeltics,
it was a start.
"I'd almost forgot what it was
like to play important minutes. It
had been since List March said
Barry, who scored 12 points in the
fourth quarter.
"I've got to find out if I belong
in the league and what I need to do
to improve. I hope theCelticssee the
highlights, but 1 don't want to stick
a dagger in their back
Barry's minutes increased from
an average of six to 17 on Monday
night for several reasons. Fellow
rookie Todd Day is out for four to
six weeks with a dislocated elbow
and Milwaukee coach Mike
Dunleavy wanted toresthisstarters
in the fourth quarter because the
Bucks play again tonight in New
Jersey.
"Jon held himself well. He got
an opportunity and did a job
Dunleavy said.
Barry got into a jawing contest
with Charlotte's Kendall Gill and
waved his arms after driving for a
layup around Alonzo Mourning
with 42 seconds togo. Healso made
two 3-pointers and then wrapped
upthevictory with three free throws
in the final 10 seconds.
Milwaukee led by nine after
three quarters and held the lead
behind the play of Barry and Fred
Roberts, who finishedwithl5 points.
"ltvvasa lot of fun Barry said.
"It was very frustrating sitting on
the bench. I had never done it.
Kendall just said, 'Come on rookie,
let's see what you gotMourning
had 29 points, 12 rebounds and six
blocks and Dell Curry scored 24 for
the Hornets, who had their four-
game road winning streaksnapped.
"Jon Barry wasa good playerin
collegeand he played well tonight
Charlotte coach Allan Bristowsaid.
"He tripled his career high in
points scored. Defensively, we let
them score at will. We were lucky
that our offense kept us in the
game

Sura leads
Florida St
Seminoles
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) �
The Florida State Seminoles, trying
tokeep a share of the AtlanticCoast
Conference lead, will be without
their two top scorers tonight against
struggling North Carolina State.
Ninth-ranked FloridaState(19-
6, 9-2 in the ACC) will try to stay
abreast of conference co-leader
North Carolina without sophomore
Bobby Sura and senior Douglas
Edwards, both suspended for one
game for violating the school's class
attendance policy. The Seminoles
play the North Carolina State
Wolfpack at Raleigh.
"It's a very serious suspension
because we're looking at being in
the race for a regular season cham-
pionship coach Pat Kennedy said
Tuesday.
"You'realwaysupset when the
kids don't sustain their academic
responsibilities
The Seminoles would normally
be hefty favorites against the
Wolfpack, a team trying to avoid a
last-place finish in the Atlantic
Coast Conference in a year they've
been crippled by injuries and aca-
demic casualties. But the loss of
Sura ard Douglas hurts.
Sura, the ACC's third leading
scorer with a 20.8 average, and Dou-
glas Edwards,averagingl8.5 points
a game, are also the team's leading
rebounders.
North Carolina State (7-13,1-9)
has played much of its season with
only eight players, losing others to
injuries and academics.
"They may have a player or
two out, but it's still going to be a
big game for us and obviously a big
game for them said North Caro-
lina State coach Les Robinson.
"Those are very important players
for Florida State. They've got some
good players on the bench. I'msure
they've got some guys out there
battling
Kennedy was undecided about
his starting lineup for tonight's
game. He could use fifth-year se-
nior Lorenzo Hands and go with
the three-guard lineup oropen with
a big front line using freshman
Maurice Robinson and Byron
Wells,alsoafifth-yearsenior,along-
side starting center Rodney Dobard.
Starting guards Charlie Ward
and Sam Cassell are in the lineup,
but Ward is still recovering from a
shoulder injury that has limited his
play.
Edwards, who ranks among
the leaders in virtually every statis-
tical category in the ACC, also
missed Florida State's season-
opener for failing to take a final
exam last spring.
The Florida Board of Regents
established a rule several years ago
to suspend athletes from games if
they fail to take tests. It is known as
the "Deion Sanders rule named
for the former Florida State star
who failed to take any of his final
exams in his last semester �t the
school.
Junior point guard Charlie
Ward is still bothered by a shoul-
der injury and only at about 60 to 65
percentofhisabiuty,Kennedysaid.
Florida State earlier in the sea-
son lost 7-foot center Andre Reid
and guard Chuck Graham for the
year. Reid broke a finger and Gra-
ham suffered a knee injury in the
opening game. Freshman Derrick
Carroll suffered a broken foot last
week and is not expected back be-
fore the ACC tournament in mid-
March.

even more aggressively in the '9293
campaign.
He currently leads the CAA in
rebounding and shows no signs of
slowing down. Copeland said his
knee injury caused him to focus on
his senior year.
"I guess that you take things for
granted and then you have a major
injury like that hit you he said. "It
kind of puts things in perspective
The ECU basketball team
struggled in the first half of the sea-
son but have since pulled off an up-
set against James Madison and
played theotherC A A teams tougher
the second time around.
"We'll play a good game
Copeland said and then we'll have
a let down. We just have to get con-
sistent. If we get everyone playing
well on a given night then we can
beat anybody. We just have to get it
done
Copeland said that after he fin-
ishes his careerat ECU, it will be nice
to look backat his ind ividual accom-
plishments, but he puts a greater
emphasison winningand thepeople
he has met.
"I feel thatasa team, 1 wish that
wecould have won a lot more games
�overall 1 think that the friendships
I've made and the people I've met
are really going to be helpful
Copeland said.
"I'm happy about everything
except that I wish that wecould have
won a lot more games
Copeland is currently in third
place on ECU'sall-time rebounding
list. Copeland's hard work on the
floor will play a pivotal role if the
Pirates hope to make a run for the
CAA title in Richmond this March.
