Campus police hope to curb spring rape rate
By Warren Sumner
Staff Writer
With the emergence of the spring
season, police officials in the Green-
ville area are bracing for the increased
number of sexual assaults that typi-
cally are reported at the onset of warm
weather. With reports of an alleged
rape taking place on campus as re-
cently as this weekend, campus and
Greenville officials are stressing edu-
cation and awareness as preventative
measures against such crimes.
This weekend, the ECU Public
Safety office received a report of a rape
that allegedly occurred around 2 a.m.
Saturday morning behind the Spilman
Building. The victim was allegedly as-
saulted on Fifth St dragged through
the hedges that separate campus from
the street, and raped on campus
Students find
volunteerism
rewarding
By Joe Horst
Staff Writer
Classrooms and textbooks
may be one way to get an edu-
cation, but ECU students are
finding that volunteer work can
also prove to be rewarding.
Currently, students in
Health 1000 classes have the op-
tion of volunteering their time
to 42 agencies located in the Pitt
County area. Started in 1989,
the student volunteer program
distributes opportunity sheets
to students listing the organiza-
tions and contact people need-
ing volunteers. Organizations
range from PICASO, the non-
profit AIDS support group, to
the Little Willie Center, which
deals with latcn-key children.
Bobbie Beck, volunteer of-
fice manager of PICASO, said
that student volunteers have
been crucial to the success and
working of the organization.
"The students save my
sanity Beck said. "The ones I
have are extremely dedicated,
highly effective and highly pro-
fessional. They have literally
kept this office open when it
might not be. I can't speak
highly enough of the ECU stu-
dent and their work
The student volunteers
work at a variety of tasks at
PICASO, ranging from
fundraisers, designing training
manuals, answering questions
on HIVAIDS and filling out
client forms.
The volunteer program
does not require students to par-
ticipate; rather, it offers partici-
pants extra-credit incentives,
such as an additional 10 points,
in the class the student is cur-
rently attending. Project direc-
tor Judy Baker said that this for-
mat is designed so as not to take
away from the students who
don't participate.
"Our program is designed
to stimulate volunteerism
among college students Baker
said. "It's one way to get them
involved in the community
Dr. Dee Dee Glascoff, as-
sociate professor in health edu-
cation, echoed Baker's senti-
ments, saying that a student's
first volunteer experience may
foster a second or third time.
"Students find out how re-
warding volunteering is, and

grounds. According to ECU Public
Safety's Lt. Keith Knox, the incident is
still under investigation.
A 15-year veteran of crime pre-
vention, Knox said that his office re-
ceives more reports of rape during
spring months than at any other time
of the year. Knox said he had no con-
crete proof on why this phenomenon
occursduring this time, but speculates
that it is because people tend to be
more relaxed with their awareness
during the spring than at other times
of the year.
"People just don't take precau-
tions now like they do at other times of
the year Knox said. "They may have
a tendency to leave doors and win-
dows open or unlocked for ventila-
tion. That leaves them less protected
against sexual assault
Knox also believes that people
are uneducated as to exactly who can
be assaulted by rapists.
"Everyone is a potential victim,
no matter what age, no matter what
social status, no matter what gender.
When you're talking about rape it is a
very complex problem, only by educa-
tion and by changing attitudes can
rapes be prevented
Supporting Knox in this senti-
ment is Mary Smith, the director of the
REAL Crisis Center. Smith's office of-
fers counseling and assistance to vic-
tims of rape on a regular basis.
Smith said her office has received
nine new rape clients so far this month
and given the current trend (since Janu-
ary there have been 37 new victims of
rapes reported to the center), said there
will undoubtedly be more cases as the
warmer weather continues.
"Many people have speculated
on the increased occurrences of rape
during the spring Smith said. "Some
say it is because oi depression, some
attribute it to the fact that more people
are out moving around, some say it is
because of hormonal changes people
go through during the spring. People
are simply less guarded during the
spring and are therefore more
succeptible to violent crimes
Smith also said that numbers of
rapes that go unreported are astro-
nomical as compared to those few rapes
that aie actually prosecuted in court.
Smith said that out of 142 rape clients
last year, only 33 reported the inci-
dents to authorities.
Through his experiences as a po-
lice officer, Lt. Knox urges everyone to
commit themselves towards being edu-

Pitt County recycling
program recognized by state
By Karen Hassell

Assistant News Editor
With the diversity of recy-
clable good sin the U.S. increas-
ing, Pitt County is striving to
meet the challenge of enabling
citizens to recycle these items,
and the ECU campus is part of
that challenge.
Pitt County recently won
the 1992 Outstanding Recycling
Program award from the North
Carolina Recycling Association.
"The citizens participating
are the key said Joy Hudson,
county recycling coordinator.
"We provide all kinds of pro-
grams, but the citizens make it
work
Pitt County's recycling
program includes much more
than just paper and plastic. Ma-
terial categories include: alu-
minum scrap, lead acid batter-
ies, beverage cans, cardboard,
eyeglasses, green, brown and
clear glass, paper, newspaper,
plastic 1, plastic 2, and other
plastics such as farm chemical
containers, used oil, white
goods (appliances), used
clothes, shoes, cloth and yard
waste.
ECU has a pickup pro-
gram already in use around the
campus. The recycling trailer
will accept glass bottles and jars,
1 plastic soda bottles, 2 plas-
tic bottles, beverage cans, news-
papers, office paper and other
papers.
Currently, all collection
centers require separation of
materials before acceptance.
"The worst thing is people
putting contaminants in with
the recyclables such as glass and
plastic containers with food
Hudson said. "Food and wet-
ness are examples of contami-
nants. We don't ask that you
remove labels or anything like
that. We do ask that you re-
move lids and keep materials
contaminant free
Hudson said that another
problem, especially on the cam-
pus, is with people not sorting
materials correctly or putting
unrecyclable items in the col-
lection trailer.

Waco standoff ends in tragedy
WACO, Texas (AP) ? Fire
engulfed a religious cult com-
pound today after FBI agents in
an armored vehicle smashed the
buildings and pumped tear gas
into them in an attempt to end a
51-day standoff. The fate of
Branch Davidian leader David
Koresh and the 95 people inside
the compound ? believed to in-
clude 25 children ? wasn't im-
mediately known. One person
could be seen jumping off a roof;
one emerged with his hands up.
Huge clouds of smoke rose
into the air from the complex of
interlocking buildings. About 20
minutes after the fire began, a
huge fireball erupted from the
compound. A watchtower that
had become familiar in televi-
sion shots of the siege collapsed.
Waco fire trucks were called
in, but there was no immediate
sign of efforts to put the blaze
out.
The fire began shortly after
noon, moments after an armored
vehicle rammed one of the build-
ings as part of a six-hour assault.
At dawn, FBI agents in an ar-
mored vehicle had begun ripping
holes in the walls of the com-
pound. Agents were met by
heavy gunfire but no injuries
were reported.

A week-long strike by faculty membersat the University
of Cincinnati is over, and school officials said all scheduled
classes are now being held. The 1,916 full-time faculty mem-

Professors went on strike March 29 over several issues, in-

working conditions. A tentative three-year contract was
reached April 2, and classes resumed April 5. At least 50
percent of the classes were held during the strike, and a

cated about the dangers of rape.
He said that by replacing the
locks on doors and windows,
installing motion lights on resi-
dences and taking a self-defense
class geared towards rape de-
fense, the chances oi becoming
a victim of rape can be inexpen-
sively and significantly reduced.
Knox vehemently urges a
victim of rape to report the inci-
dent to the police immediately
to help them combat the
criminal's actions in the future.
"One thing about rapists,
if they rape once, they will do it
again that individual is count-
ing on the victim not reporting
the rape through fear and in-
timidation. It is very important
that a rape victim prosecute so
that we can remove that indi-
vidual from causing harm in the
future
Rapists are traditionally a
hard criminal to prosecute, and
Knox said that tremendous im-
provements have been made in
medical investigation that make
tracking rapists quite a bit easier.
Most major hospitals now
use a rape kit full of investiga-
tive devices coupled with
samples of the perpetrator's se-
men or blood to help them trace
the criminal.

Rape problem addressed
Education essential to prevent
rapes; false rapes detract
from severity of situation
Recently, th Greenville police department
logged in three separate incidents of rape in a four-
day period. All three incidents, which occurred off-
campus, have been proven to be filed under false
charges.
Typically, rape reports rise in the spring sea-
son. Reasons for this increase have ranged from
hormonal changes in people to depression to more
people being outside enjoying the weather. As a
whole, people are less guarded and therefore more
susceptible to this violent crime.
Though often misunderstood, rape is a crime
of anger and violence, rather than one of sex. Rap-
ists commit this crime to exert a type of control over
their victims. Rapists also commonly count on vic-
tims not reporting the crime, thereby allowing the
rapist to continue unknown and unstopped.
Current improvements in medical technology
exist that allow police and doctors the ability to
trace the offender with a greater degree of accuracy
and also help make convictions stick. However,
these improvements'
effect fades away to
nothing if the rape is
not reported.
Accusing a per- m j ???
son of rape falsely ? Jy 1
detracts greatly from
the few actual rapes
that are reported.
Sometimes used as an
excuse to get back at
a boyfriend or girl-
friend, these false accusations are what lead some
people to believe that a real rape has not occurred.
Rape is too great and important an issue to be
trivialized on the whim of a person's momentary
anger.
Education is probably the most important fac-
tor that will deter a potential rape from happening.
Blind trust in your fellow man cannot be followed
here; sad to say, but a person has to be a little
paranoid in today's society in order not to be vic-
timized. A few simple precautions can mean the
difference between safety and harm.
? Keep your doors locked and your windows
at a low level. With the weather warming up, people
are prone to open their windows wide to let in the
fresh air. This action can allow a person to enter
your house without your knowledge.
? Be aware of your surroundings and if there
are any people around you. Walk with your head
forward, not constantly looking down at the ground
or up in the air. This precaution will allow you time
to react if someone approaches you.
? If walking at night, try to stay in lighted
areas as much as possible. Also, try not to walk
alone if at possible; if you must, keep an extra-alert
eye out for strangers.
These guidelines may seem old and overused
to some, but they may be life-savers to others. Rape
is not a crime that will just go away if it is ignored;
more than likely, it will happen at a greater rate
rather than decline. Only when people realize the
severity of the problem will any progress be made.
Realize that there is a problem. If you are
raped, report it. If you know of a rape, report it. The
three monkeys ? see no evil, hear no evil, speak no
evil ? is not a graphic that applies here. This matter
is too serious to be trivialized. Don't perpetuate the
problem that already exists.

Women's bicycle no threat to male's identity
It's easy to tell when spring
has sprung here at ECU. No, it's
not the sweet smell of fresh-cut
grass nor the vivid blossoms of
the cherry trees. It's the sight of
numerous scantily-clad female
students lying about in any avail-
able patch of sunshine.
Ah, the joys of spring!
Wa tching the goings-on out-
side my apartment the past few
weeks,itoccurred to me how much
we homosapietis (which, ironically,
means "wise man") are connected
to the cycles of the seasons, re-
gardless of how "civilized" we
become. Of course, when I speak
of cycles, I mean bicycles. Which
is a corny but effective segue into
my next topic.
Three weeks ago I didn't
have a bicycle. I had one once ? a
nice 10-speed model ? but in a
moment of poor judgement I let
my erstwhile roommate borrow
it, whereupon he proceeded tolose
the thing straightaway.
Printed on
100 recycled
paper
That's right, he lost a full-
grown bicycle. Just couldn't re-
member where he left it. So there's
probably a rusted-out frame of a
bike chained to a "No Parking"
sign somewhere on campus, i nat's
no matter, because I have a bicycle
now.
Three weeks ago, I com-
plained to my father that my four-
block walk to campus everyday
was becoming quite stressful.
"Only four blocks?" heasked quite
incredulously, like fourblocks was
some cake-walk or something.
Then he said, "Well, why don't
you just call a cab?" I think he was
kidding, though.
Anyway, he said that mom
had a bicycle she hadn't ridden in
a while and asked me if I wanted
to use it. "Sure 1 said, because I
hadn't had much sleep in the past
few days.
We went out to the garage
where my family keepsitsbicycles,
l3v.i;i!iOv.vr: nare tires and just
about everything else but auto-
mobiles. Dad showed me mom's
bike.
It was a pretty blue color.
The color wasnice. Oh, and itwas
painted a pretty shade of blue,
(did I cover that already?). Well,
to be as inexpensive as it was
(FREE!), the bike had some great
features, like two genuine rubber
tires and a beautiful, matching set
of handlebars.
But it was a woman's bike.
Now for those of you males
out there who wonder why men's
bikes have the bar and women's
bikes don't, the answer is obvious:
the bicycle was invented by Gloria
Steinem. Seriously, though, it'sgot
something to do with back in the
old days when women used to
wear dresses. The bar was re-
moved to keep the dresses from
bunching up on it. I think.
1 brought the bicycle home
and took it out of the back of my
car. I was a little nervous concern-
ing the reaction I would get from
my neighbors, but as soon as
they saw me on the bike, they
began to yell such reassuring
phrases as, "Wooo-weee, look
at that little sissy-boy ride and
"Peddle that thang, sweetheart,
and be careful you don "t break a
nail
Of course, being com-
pletely secure in my manhood, 1
took my friends' good-natured
ribbing like a real sport, al-
though I do think the rock-
throwing incident was a bit
much. The fact that I haven't
ridden my bicycle since that day
has absolutely nothing to do
with it being a women's bike.
It's just that I'm waiting for the
weather to warm up. Like
around 100 degrees or so.
On second thought, if you
happen to see a rusted-out, ten-
speed bicycle chained to a "No
Parking" sign, give me a call. I'd
surely appreciate it.

Letters to the Editor
Christians should not hold others to beliefs
To the Editor:
What is so difficult about
accepting lifestyles unlike our
own? Does it really matter
whether the Bible condones or
condemns homosexuality?
Having read the letters to the
editor over the past few weeks,
I became frustrated over the
tendency of Christians to hold
non-Christians to their code of
morality.
To the Christians who
wrote letters to the editor re-
cently, I say keep your religion
to yourselves. Not everyone be-
lieves in God or Jesus Christ as
you do. Holding non-Chris-
tians to the moral standards
you set for yourselves is abso-
lutely ludicrous!
The statement "through
the help of Christian counsel-
ing, homosexuals can be set
free from the sin of homosexu-
ality" is ignorantand arrogant.
Sendingahomosexual tocoun-
seling to "cure" him or her is
like sending a person to coun-
seling to cure him of eating and
drinking. Sexuality is an innate
drive in each of us, whether the
attraction isheterosexual or ho-
mosexual. Perhaps you should
keep in mind Alinsky's Rule
for Radicals: "Those who are
the most moral are farthest from
the problem
Shouldn't people be less
worried about sexuality or race
and more concerned with is-
sues such as child abuse, drugs
and illiteracy? Americans fo-
cus easily on moral issues, but
they make little effort to solve
the problems of this country
which are destroying its very
fabric.

Clinton uses 'false association' with history
To the Editor:
There is a deceptive prac-
tice in the marketing industry
known as "false association"
whereby manufacturers of
lesser products cloak their
wares in the guise of successful
competitors, often adopting
their color schemes or type
styles. The premise being that
if the illicit item appears to be
the same as the genuine article,
the buyer will probably associ-
ate it with the real McCoy and
make a hasty purchase. Most
patent attorneys make an ex-
tremely good living by keep-
ing these products off the
shelves since copies often in-
volve the theft of intellectual
property and therefore violate
federal law.
In his book Class (1981),
Paul Fussell refers to the com-
mon practice among the lowly
society of donning tee shirts or
caps emblazoned with impor-
tant trademarks like
"Budweiser " This action al-
lows the wearer to achieve a
small degree of fame through
mere association with those
who are legitimately success-
ful.
Woody Allen, in his film
Zelig, made light of a similar
premise when he fashioned a
pathetic character who found
popularity by affecting the
mannerisms of those around
him. By carefully observing the
language, lifestyles and quirks
of his associates, he was able to
pass himself off as intelligent
and educated There is, as you
probably guessed, a limit to the
longevity of a charade like this
one.
Most recently, Bill Clinton
has latched onto the idea that
he, too, can be a man of sub-
stance by aligning himself with
the right people. The funny part
is that most of the associations
he concocts for himself are to
the deceased. I suppose this is
lessabout being funny than it is
crafty since he knows that no
corpse, no matter how great in
life, is able to reject such an
unwelcome partnership.
FDR, Jack Kennedy, Mar-
tin Luther King, and, just this
week, Thomas Jefferson, have
been exhumed and paraded
about as the unwitting men-
tors of a slick hypocrite and his
systematicbilkingof the Ameri-
can people. Even Hillary has
seen the merit in this tactic, and
has wasted no time in procur-
ing postmortem advice from
Eleanor Roosevelt's ghost.
When scholars in the next
century write about Clinton,
I'm certain that all equations
which compare him to those
who forged history will be cu-
riously missing. Or, perhaps
his life will be more aptly com-
pared to the rogues, liars and
infidels who came before him
and to whom he secretly as-
pires.

Japan's economic
plan could boost
global economy
The Japanese government Wednes-
day unveiled a record package of spend-
ing and tax breaks aimed at reviving its
slumping economy and reducing its mas-
sive trade surplus. Top U.S. officials indi-
cated that they think Japan must do con-
siderably more to contribute to global eco-
nomic growth.
Japanese officials asserted that the
package, which they valued at about $115
billion, would be enough to lift the
economy out of its worst recession in two
decades. A recovery, in turn, should boost
Japanese purchases of foreign goods and
thus help shrink the trade imbalance.
Of course, there is a great deal of
dispute over how much of the package
will provide a real boost to the economy
and how much is artificial. Much of the
spending in the Japanese plan is in the
form of public works, not just for tradi-
tional roads and harbors, but also for high-
tech projects such as data and communi-
cation networks.
The Clinton administration has been
prodding Japan to increase demand in
order to boost imports and give the global
economy a jump start. The economic slow-
down in Japan has curbed demand there
for U.S. exports, dampening efforts to
boost the U.S. economy.
However, top administration offi-
cials have strongly indicated that they are
not impressed by the Japanese
govr-nment's effort. Secretary Lloyd
Bentsen said Japan is in a particularly
good position to contribute to the growth
of the world economy because, unlike
other major industrialized cities, Tokyo
enjoys large trade and budget surpluses.
Secretary of State Warren Christo-
pher said that while the package is "a
useful first step the world economy
needs several years of strong Japanese
growth, not just a quick lift
Both Washington and Tokyo agree
that stimulating the Japanese economy is
one of the important ways Tokyo can re-
duce its trade surplus, which was reported
at a record $111.34 billion for the fiscal
year ending March 31. However, the ques-
tion is whether the package announced
will do the trick. It should spur an in-
crease in demand that would raise Japa-
nese purchases of foreign goods by about
$8 billion this year.
Add to this the fact that Japan's aid
to Russia will total about $1.8 billion,
slightly higher than the $1.6 billion re-
ported last week, and Japan is in quite an
uncomfortable, world-wide spotlight.
The Russian aid will consist mainly
of trade credits and insurance, especially
for the gas and oil industry, but it will also
include some modest grants to improve
safety and nuclear facilities, help small
businesses and provide food and medi-
cine.
This comes as a surprise considering
the dispute over the four islands off the
northern coast of Hokkaido. Their involve-
ment in the Group of Seven's economic
plans is a welcome sign for the future of
our economic situation. I guess it's taking
the actions of all nations to get out of this
mess.

Barefoot f 1993
By Kris Hoffler
Staff Writer
Warmer weather, pollen on your car,
greener grass, and the arrival of the birds
and tfie bees can only mean on thing: it's
spring in the Emerald Gty.
After a long and rainy winter it is a
welcome experience. As a college student
you can expect exams to follow the wanner
weather and summer to follow the exams.
We here at ECU also have the spring tradi-
tion of Barefoot on the Mall, a good way to
lower your spring fever while kicking back
with some good music and good friends.
This year it looks like we have a pretty
decent entertainment lineup, so get out and
enjoy it (after all, you have already paid for
it).
Barefoot'93 is thisThursday, starting at
noon and lasting until around 530p.m. The
lineup of bandsis sure to have something to
please most anyone, along with a good MC,
some free stuff givenawayand yournormal
col lection of mindless, but fun, college ga mes.
Although alcohol is not encouraged by ECU
security, I swear I smelled a little beer last
year and it was not encouraged then either.
The day will begin at 12 noon with a
giveaway and will be followed by the MC
for the day, Brad Lowery. You may have
seen Brad before on HBO's "Def Comedy
Jam "Inside the NFL" or even on the
" ApolloComedy Hour Hehasopened for
such acts as Dennis Miller and Sinbad. We
may have a good comedian on our hands
here folks and only a nihilist would knock
that.
Next up is Roily Gray and Sunfire at
12:31, whom you mayhaveseen downtown
before. R.G. and Sunfire play even-thing
from reggae to calypso to soca (calypso and
American funk). The majority of the band
members hail from Trinidad but have re-
sided in the United States for over 10 years
now. Their sound is certainly fun and
definately danceable.
Sunfire is to be followed by more give-
aways and Brad Lowery's comic relief be-
tween set changes. Then at 2 p.m. Col. Bruce
Hampton (ret.) & The Aquarium Rescue
Unit will take the stage. The good Colonel
delivers a combination of blues, jazz, rock,
country, bluegrass and a little of his own
stylings to tease the ear. He has stated the
band's purpose to be trying to capture the
joy and spirit of Southern root music ? a
fine objective by anyone's standards. They
will be followed by even more giveaways
and the verbal trickery of Brad Lowery.
Finally we come to what is known as
the headliner. Last year was The Ocean
Blue, a look at the future of music; this year
we will have a glimpse at an era most of us
(of college age that is) probably missed. At4
p.m. 1964 will take the stage and the British
will invade once again. They have been
hailed as the most authentic and endearing
' tribute to the Beatles, bar none. Their sound
and appearance is so close to the real thing
it is uncanny, a flashback if you will. They
cover Beatles' material from 1964 to 1966
with incredible detail, down to John
Lennon's straddling stance and gum chew-
ing during songs.
Although they won't play anything
from Sgt. Pqrpers's, Abbey Road, or the White
Album you can expect such songs as: "Can't
Buy Me Love "Help "Drive My Car
'Twist and Shout" and "Yesterday De-
spite not being able to hear the later stuff,
this sounds promising.
There will also be the Velcro Fly Wall,
Human Bowling, and Temporary Tattoos
for those who get bored with the bands.
Who knows what else will go on? Those of
you that were here for last year's Barefoot
may remember thehugevatof mud created
by a dunk tank leaking into a volleyball
court. This vat of mud was probably the
most fun of anything that day. People, mud
and clothes were flying about.
In my opinion that was one of the best
experiences I have had since I've been at ole
ECU, reclai ming childhood probably. Secu-
rity will no doubt take extra measures to see
that it won't happen again.
I would pay money to see that again.
Enjoy.

Mama Cass sang a really swell version
of "Dream a Little Dream of Me It makes
mecry. Bobby Goldsboro's "Honey" makes
me cry too, but hey ? mat's because I'm a
sensitive man, damnit! But, I don't want to
talk about sensitivity, I mean, God bless
Mama Cass and all that, but haven't we
heard enough about sensitivity? I'm a sen-
sitive man and that's that!
I kick ass when I have to, though.
Anyway, have you heard about these
programs where needlesaredistributed to
drugaddicts? Nonow, get this: need lesare
distributed to drug addicts! We live in a
country thatwon'tlegalize pot, butwe give
needles to drug addicts so that, when they
do their drugs and break the law, they
won't get AIDS or hepatitis. Silly.
Let's keep the users alive. That way,
when they kill a young newlywed couple,
full of hopes and dreams for an ever-so-
blissful future, in order to get some cash ?
and maybe a ring to pawn ? so they can
buy more drugs, we can prosecute them
and shove them in one of our vacant jail
cells.
Well, I think we all know Clinton isn't
going to legalize pot. But could you imag-
ine? We could cruise into a bar and order a
joint! And what about the other organics?
Hev, we could hop, skip rind jump into the
ABC storeandpickupasixpackof'sh rooms
or peyote buttons, complete with govern-
ment warning labels, of course.
Look, we get high, The Man gets his
cut,organizedcrimeisoutofbusiness,and
life would be good! But it ain't gonna hap-
pen. No, the administration would rather
pump billions of bucks into shit like tele-
scopes that don't work, planes that don't
fly, and studies about dumb things like
how much weight a rabbit can bear on its
back.
Don't forget these little ridiculous
things about violence in movies and ex-
plicit lyrics in music that most people don't
listen to anyway! It's all at our expense!
And don't think I've forgotten the Meese
Commission! All them bucks spent so's
they could look at dirty magazines and
movies. Right. And whodoyou think paid
for all their lunches? You know they
couldn't stand up! They had to have their
meetings catered! It's the same with Tipper
Gore and her stupid hearings. Well, they
could stand up.
This country is like an army. The
taxpayers are the infantry, stuck in the
trertches and trying to get out alive. The
Government is the officers, high and dry,
taking care of their big, fat, spotty asses.
But I've got a plan.
Sure,let'sdistribute those needles.First,
however, lace them wi th cyan id e or a rsen ic
or some cool poison. That way, we kill of a
lot of addicts, who, in turn, nipssome crime
in the bud. It's a beautiful thing.
Next, take all those hard-core crimi-
nals, the murderers, rapists and especially
the child molesters,and use them formedi-
cal experiments and stuff like that. Take
some others, put bombs with seven-day
timers in their heads, drop 'em off in
Baghdad, and tell 'em to raise hell. See?
We're cleaning out the prisons, dis-
covering lots of new, useful things, and
taking care of Iraq all at the same time. Life
is good.
If there's still too many criminals left,
put the death penalty to good use. Kill 'em
and make fertilizer with their remains. Now
we have enough room in the prisons and
guess what else? By getting rid of all that
deadweight, weeliminatesurpluslawyers.

Ficklen, football
team trying to
improve on last year
By Biljy Weaver
Staff Writer
Ficklen Stadium, like the ECU Pi-
rate football team, is in the early stage of
renovation. There's a huge hole in the
stadium that will eventually be filled to
accomodate50,000fans. Fortunately for
ECU coaches, players and fans, the Pi-
rates hope that the holes in the 1993
team will also be filled.
For this year's PurpleGold game,
Head Coach Steve Logan had three main
objectives to improve last year's squad:
reduce turnovers, improve the kicking
game and develop the defense.
Logan said he was pleased with the
outcome. Junior college transfer punter
Bill Wilson showed promise with a 45.7-
yard average.
Although the offense did turn the
ball over five times, Logan said he was
pleased with the turnover ratio for the
entire spring.
The defense out scored the offense
34-28. In spring drills, the defense re-
ceives three points for forcing the of-
fense into three plays followed by a
punt, two points for a turnover, and one
point for any other drive stop.

Freshman Marcus Crandell started

By Michael Albuquerque
Staff Writer
WILUAMSBURG, Va. ? The East
Carolina baseball team took twoof three
games from CAA-rival William & Mary
over the weekend to give Head Coach
Gary Overton the 300th victory of his
nine-year career.
After losing the
opener on Saturday 9-3,
the Pirates (30-12, 11-4)
bounced back with a
doubleheader sweep
against the Tribe (19-15,
3-ll)on Sunday, 7-2and
19-2.
In Sunday's first
The CAA named
Watkins the
Colonial Player of
the Week for the
second time this
season after a
game, Pat Watkins and monster week duim
which he batted
.684 (13 for 19)
with four home
runs, six RBIs and
13 runs scored.
Lee Kushner hit back-to-
back home runs on con-
secutive pitches to help
chase Tribe starter Scott
Spears (3-2) in the fourth
inning.
Watkins, who had
hit another home run
earlier in the game, now
has 17 home runs and ranks second to
Arizona's George Arias (18 in in 186 at
bats) for the national lead. On Monday,
the CAA named Watkins the Colonial
Player of the Week for the second time
this season after a monster week duing
home runs, six RBIs and 13 runs scored.
Lyle Hartgrove (7-2) pitched a three-
hit complete game and is now tied for
the CAA lead in victorieds as well.
In the nightcap on Sunday, the Pi-
rates pounded out 19 runs on 20 hits to
complete the doubleheader sweep over
William & Mary.
Mike Sanburn (6-2)
pitched eight innings and
allowed only one run on
four hits before Stancil
Morse closed out the
game with one inning of
relief.
Jamie Borel led the Pi-
rates with four hits, in-
cluding two triples, and
five RBIs, and catcher
Brian Antal, making his
second start of the season
(with the other start in
game one), went three for
four with one RBI.
Steven Pitt also went
three for four with his
third home run and four
RBIs.

Jones, Blake return to Ficklen
ByWarrenSumner
Assistant Sports Editor
ECU Pirate football fans were treated
to the return of five former standout play-
ers to the Ficklen Stadium
field during Saturday's
spring football game. The
small spring crowd
cheered the return ofLuke
Fisher, Robert Jones,
Vinson Smith, Jeff Blake
and Junior Robinson with
a standing ovation.
Several former Pirate
standouts were available
forautographsduringthe
gjt Purple and Gold Pigskin
- PigoutParty,withFisher,
Blake and Jones being the
most sought-after signa-
tures. The Pirate fans swarmed the Peach
Bowl veterans, searching for signatures on
sports cards, footballs, T-Shirt, bottles of
Evian spring-water and anything else they
could find. Former Piratestar Jeff Blakedid
his share of autographing the fans memo-
rabilia, and endured endless questioning
about his future with the New York Jets.

Blake said he wasexcited

Esiason and looks forward to
working with the veteran
when thenew sea-
son begins.
"Its a plus for
me because there
are a lot of things
that I don't really
know right now
Blake said. "There
are plenty of
things that he can
help me out with Blake said
he has accepted his current role
on the Jets' bench and said he is
taking things "step by step" to
become a starter.
"Itwas(frustrating)atfirst,
but I had to accept my role of what I had to
do Blake said. "My role was really to just
be prepared to play whenever I got called
on
Robert Jones, of the Super Bowl Cham-
pion DallasCowboys, received callstoplay
all season. As the Pirates only number one
draft pick, he was the major hit of the
Robert Jones
Pigout party. Jones' Super
Bowl ring, valued at over
$15,000, was absent from
the day's activities, but his
warm demeanor was not,
as Jones graciously signed
all the Pirate fans memora-
bilia.
After being selected
No. 24 in the 1992 draft,
Jones said that he had to

ments to makeiton the pro-
fessional level.
"Everything had to
raise a step higher Jones said. "That in-
crease in competition made things a lot
more intense
Jones said that being at the celebration
brought back memories of his freshman
and sophomore years in college, when he
played in the spring games. He also said
that his return evoked remembrances of
the Pirates' Peach Bowl victory in Atlanta.

have the arm strength to go deep.
"I have every confidence in him that
he can do what is necessary to putting
our offense in the end zone Logan
said. "It's just a crash course situation.
That's the only negative
For the last 10 years the Pira He de-
fense has been ranked near the bottom
of the NCAA. Even in 1991, the yea r they
won the Peach Bowl, the Pirates ra nked
82nd in the NCAA Div. I-A out of 105
teams and managed to post an 11-1
record.
Larry Coyer is a new asset to the
ECU defense. Coyer is not a defensive
back or linebacker, he is the new P irate
defensive coordinator and assistant
coach.
Coyer has come into the Pirate orga-
nization with a plan to eliminate indi-
vidualism and to create a more team-
oriented atmosphere.
So far Coyer's plan has been suc-
cessful. No one player stood out ?is a
dominate force in the PurpleGold
game. Gang tackling and seven offen-
sive plays were stopped for losses as the
Pirate defense showed promise for ithe
upcoming season.
On the offensive side of the ball,
Junior college transfer Jerris McPhail
proved to be a valuable addition to t he
Pirate backfield.
McPhail rushed for 51 yards, 30 cm
one play, one touchdown and a two
point conversion. "I think that Jerris is
going to be a legitimate component for
us to use Logan said.
The big test for the Pirates will be
televised on ESPN, Sept. 9 as ECU hosts
Syracuse University in Ficklen Stadium.

Tennis team's season comes
to a close in CAA toumev
By Misha Zonn
Staff Writer
The ECU men's tennis team's sea-
son ended Saturday in Richmond as
they lost to Old Dominion in the semi-
finals of the Colonial Athletic Associa-
tion tournament. The third-seeded Pi-
rates had made it to the semifinal
match by defeating sixth-ranked
James Madison 4-2 in the opening
round on Friday.
In the first round victory, ECU
was lead by wins from Anders Ahl,
Tim Johnstone, Tommy McDonaldand
Jamie Holt However, against JMU, the
Pirates could only manage two points.
On the NCAA tennis system, one point
came from the overall doubles victory,
while the remaining point was manu-
factured from Jamie Holt's singles vic-
tory. A win would have put the Pirates
into a finals match up with top seed
Richmond. A CAA title does not war-
rant a NCAA birth however, wi th only
the top four teams from each region
making the tournament. The Pirates fin -

The Pirates entered the stretch of the
season undefeated in the conference, bu t
then proceeded to lose two tough CAA.
matches before making a strong show -
ing in the tournament. The team was.
fueled for most of the season by the strong
performances from the fourth, fifth and
sixth seeds.
Junior captain Tommy McDonald,
who along with Tal Frydman, and Jamie
Holt solidified the middle of the order,
says thatfinishing third in the conference
was about where the team expected to
finish, even though their goal was to win
the conference. "Wefeltlikeitwasagood

Willis tied it
104-104 on a hook
with 49 seconds left. Then Johnson
drove on Willis along the baseline
for the basket, putting the Hornets
ahead to stay.
After Wilkins missed his layup
try, Willis made only one of two
free throws to make it 106-105 with
14 seconds left. Bogues, fouled by
Mookie Blaylock, made two free
throws at 13 seconds, then Wilkins
cut it to 108-107 with nine seconds
left on a short jumper.
Bogues made two more free
throws at eight seconds, then
Blaylock missed a 3-point try at four
seconds and the Hawks could not
get another shot.
The Hornets, who halted a
three-game losing streak to Atlanta
this season, overcame a nine-point
deficit early in the fourth period
with a 12-2 run, highlighted by a
pair of three-point playsby Moum-

The victory gives Charlotte a
21-19 road record, assuring them of
their first winning seasonal record
on the road in the team's history.
The Hornets, fighting for their
first playoff spot ever, are 11 games
ahead of lastyear's pace when they
were 30-49 at this point.

Marlins make most of inning
?rida scores nine in game to set
record against Houston
Benito
Sant imaBlue,
had a homer and a two-run
double in Florida's seven-run
seventh inning, and Jack
Armstrong pitched a strong
game, leading the Marlins to a
9-4 victory Saturday night over
the Houston Astros.
The inning not only was
the most productive ever for
the expansion team, but sur-
d its run total for any previ-
ous game. Florida scored six runs
on two occasions.
Armstrong (1 -2) didn't allow
a hit over the first four innings
until Eric Anthony singled to start
the fifth.
The Astros scored twice in
the inning ? on Andujar
Cedeno's RBI grounder and
Eddie Taubensee's double.
Armstrong, not feeling well,
team
allowed three hits, struck out
eight and walked two in eight
innings. Anthony hit a two-
run homer in the ninth after
Jeff Bagwell singled to start
the inning against Trevor
Hoffman.
After Eric Bell replaced
Williams (1-1), Orestes
Destrade hit an RBI single and
Santiago doubled home two
more runs.

beginning of the season You can
and you can't compare that to a
Super Bowl ring because that is
something that most players will
never get. That's something you
can look at and cherish for the rest
of your life. It's a totally different
thing entirely
After helping his team win a
Super Bowl in his debut season, the
Cowboy star said he has no prob-
lem finding new goals to motivate
TENNIS
him.
"Some of the goals that I set for
myself have already been accom-
plished so now my goal is to do a lot
better so I can hopefully make it to
the Pro-Bowl Jones said.

With minimal losses from
graduation and a solid recruiting
dass on the way, McDonald says
that next year should be a good one
for the men's tennis team consider-
ing the amount of experience re-
turning.
"Basically we played eightguys
mis year. So next year we have six
out of the eight coming back
McDonald said. The returning six
players will indude McDonald as
wellas risingseniors Dave Wallace,
Markku Savusalo,and number one-
seed Camiel Huisman. Tal Frydman
and freshman Tim Johnstone will
also be back to shore up the middle
seeds. With the strong team mat

Pirates should once again compete
for the CAA crown.
