Senate's tuition increase expected to pass
By Karen Hassell
News Editor
North Carolina college stu-
dents and their parents have been
closely watching one of the debates
now taking place in the state legisla-
ture to find out if they will have to
spend more on education.
The subject of the debate is
tuition increase and the concern is
money and education. Nancy
Herndon, of Rep. Charles
McLawhom'soffice in Raleigh, said
that there are two bills ma king their
way through the legislativedebates.
Each house passed its own
version of the tuition increase bill
late in May. The Senate passed a bill
that included a five percent increase
for all students enrolled in state-
owned universities. The Senate'sbill
also incl uded a $200 tui tion increase
for those students who go to the
state's research institutions, North
Carolina State University and the
University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill.
TheHouseofRepresentatives
passed a bill that included a five
percent increase in tuition for out-
of-state studentsand a three percent
increase for in-state students.
The Bill Status Department in
Raleigh reports that the bill isnow in

Media Board provides avenue
to prevent further conflicts
By Maureen Rich
Staff Writer
(Editor's Note: This is the sec-
ond part in a two-part series.)
Good news! Contrary to
popular belief, you don't have
to sign your life away if you
work for a branch of the ECU
media.
ECU's radio station,
WZMB, received the official
"Declaration of Interests" form
Monday, said Greg Brown, stu-
dent media advisor.
The form is in response to
the conflict of interest dilemma
discovered at WZMB recently.
Former WZMB general
manager Tim Johnson wrote a
personal check in March to The
East Carolinian to pay for an ad-
vertisement promoting one of
two bands Johnson managed
outside of his WZMB employ-
ment. The ECU Media Board
ruled this a clear conflict of in-
terest.
The discovery of the per-
sonal check exposed other out-
side employment cases that
posed conflicts of interest.
The solution resulted in the
formal resignations of two em-
ployees.
WZMB employees will re-
ceive a "Declaration of Inter-
ests" form next week at their
staff meeting, Brown said.
Additional copies will be
distributed to the various stu-
dent media branches, probably
by the end of this week, Brown
also said.
The form reads, "I, the un-
dersigned, do hereby decla re my
current employment status
with, or other affiliation with,
any organizations outside the
East Carolina University stu-
dent rnedia.
Furthermore, I agree to in-
form the University Media
Board upon taking future em-
ployment or accepting member-
ship in any organization out-
side the ECU student media
The Media Board will re-
view each sheet for potential
conflicts and necessary action
will be taken.
The Board will follow the
guidelines as printed in the Uni-
versity Media Board Code of
Ethical Conduct which states,
"Staff members must not use
their association with the stu-
dent media for personal gain.
This specifically prohibits us-
ing the medium's name, or us-
ing a job position, to gain ad-
vantage in a private situation.

Visiting students take advantage of classes
Location and broader choices lure students to ECU
By Scott Vanhorne
Staff Writer
Summer school at ECU is
not just a time to catch up on
some classes. Students from
around the state take classes
in order to fulfill requirements
for their own universities or
just break the monotony of
summer.
Lori Liverman, a senior
from Chowan College, said
that she is going to ECU this
summer out of necessity.
Liverman has to complete lev-
els three and four in Spanish
in order to graduate next
spring. Chowan does not offer
Spanish during the summer,
so Liverman commutes from
her home town of Aulander,
an hour drive, to Greenville
for an 8 o'clock class every-
day.
"I like the school a lot,
but it's really hard to find a
place to park said Liverman.
Some visiting students
come to ECU because it is con-
venient. Lisa McNamee, a
Greenville resident and a
sophomore from Appalachian,
is taking a literature course in
order to fulfill a general col-
lege requirement. Since she
had to stay at home this sum-
mer, McNamee decided to use
her time to get ahead in school.
"I like Appalachian more
because the students there
seem to be more sociable said
McNamee.
Mary Beth Gray, a
sophomore at UNC Chapel
Hill, is also a resident of Green-
ville and is taking a philoso-
phy course this session. "If I
can get one of my perspective
classesoutof the way thissum-
mer, I'll be able to concentrate
on my major more next year
said Gray.
Gray also has a job work-
ing at the School of Medicine.
To get the job, she had to en-
roll in at least one summer ses-
sion.
Visiting students must
present statements from their
deans verifying that the
class(es) they want to take will
transfer, and that they are in
good standing with their
school. Visitors must also
present the Student Health
Center with an up-to-date
health certificate.
Since most schools do not
transfer grades, visiting stu-
dents take courses on a pass or
fail basis. They must make a C
or above in order to transfer
the credits. If the student
makes a D, the credits do not
transfer. However, any grade
made by a visiting student will
not affect their GPA.

Fresh face graces WTTN

Since January 31, there has
been a new face on WITN's 6 and
11 o'clock news. A young woman
withabigsmiledeliversthenews,
jokes, laughs and chats it up with
Ben, Brad and Gary. Who is she?
Where is she from?
Her name is Crystal
Thornton and she grew up in To-
peka, Kansas, which explains the
fact that she has no southern ac-
cent. She attended the University
of Alaska at Anchorage, but
graduated from Eastern Michigan
University with a degree in Tele-
communication and Film. In 1990,
she interned at MGM studios at
Disney World in studio film pro-
duction.
How did a Mid westerner
who has lived in Alaska, Michi-
gan and Florida end up in eastern
North Carolina? Thornton's hus-
band isa pilotin the Marine Corps,
which brought them to Jackson-
ville, where Crystal Thornton got
a job as news director of Cool 98.7
radio station. Her job as
anchorwoman a t WITN is her first
job in television. She simply ap-
plied and got the job.
"It was all timing she said.
"I never said, T want to do this or
I want todo thatI just kind of fell
into it
Thornton's talents are very
diverse. She likes her job in televi-
sion but her first love is the the-
ater and acting. She did a lot of

Disney she played a cowgirl who
highjacks a tour guide. All of her
acting has been live, though she
would one day like to get into film
acting. In addition to acting,
Thornton also enjoys singing gos-
pel music.
Thornton said the hardest
thing abou t anchoring the nightly
news is reading another person's
script.
"I like to write my own
script she said. "But of course
time won't allow me to write all of
it
She explained that while
reading another person's script,
allof the sudden,a long or foreign
name or place will come upon the
TelePrompTer tha t she has no idea
how to pronounce, which can be
embarrassing.
"Each night on the air is full
of surprises Thornton said.
Her most embarrassing mo-
ment occurred during an emer-
gency broadcast when she was
forced to ad-lib the broadcast
because instead of usingher foot
pedal to make the
TelePrompTer go forwards, she
made it go backwards.
Thornton does not let mis-
takes worry her though. "Hey
she said, "if you can laugh at
yourself, then thepeoplewatch-
ing will laugh with you and not

The person that Thornton
says she most admires in televi-
sion is Beverly Smith from BETs
talk show "Our Voices be-
cause she is so well-rounded,
intelligent and involved in her
community. Thornton said she
thinks of Smith as "the inter-
viewer and that the highlight
of her career was when she got
to "interview the interviewer"
as part of her job at Cool 98.7.

life is simple. "1 am not one to

The prefix of all phone
numbers at Pitt Memorial Hos-

sity Medical School will change
from 551 to 816 on June 11, at 7
p.m.
"Because of continuing

commercial manager. "We are

with a new prefix
Carolina Telephone cur-
rently uses the 551 prefix for resi-
dential lines as well as the hos-
pital and medical school. The
816 prefix will be used only for
the more than 4000 lines used by
the hospital and medical school
and the 551 prefix will remain in
service for all other customers.
Because the numbers in-
volved are so widely circulated
and are often needed in emer-
gency situations, they will not
be re-issued until October 1994.
Paul Surles, corporate
communications assistant, said
that normally numbers are
held just until the phone com-
pany releases the next phone
book. In this case, the numbers
will be held for an extra year.
Until October 1994, calls to 551
numbers will be answered by
an operator.
These numbers will not
be released to new customers
until after 1994.

College students stay close to home
A recent study has determined that most OoHege students
attend school a small distance from their home. Conducted by
Ryder Consumer Truck Rental, the market research study sur-
veyed 1000 students at 15 different universities nationwide and
determined that 31 percent of the students surveyed lived within
100 miles of their home and 21.6 percent within 250 miles. The
survey also determined that 64 percent of the students attended
schools in their home state. The study reflected both graduate and
undergraduates.
Gay student housing decision de-
layed by Ohio State trustees
The Ohio State University board of trustees has delayed a
decision to allow gay and lesbian couples to move into family
housing at the University's "Buckeye Village The apartments,
reserved for married student couples, will possibly allow homo-
sexual couples to live on their premises tc be consistent with non-
discriminatorv policies for student housing. The new policy, origi-
nally planned to take effect on July 1, but public reaction prompted
the board to review the policy. University president Gordon Gee
said that public reaction, in some instances, was unjustified. "There
havebeenauesrionsabouttheuseoftaxdollars,even though there
are no tax or tuition monies involvedthere are some people who
just disagree with the decision, period To be qualified as a
domestic partnership, the gay and lesbian partners must prove
that they have been in a relationship for six months, have com-
bined incomes, and be responsible for the common welfare of their
partners.
Sexual harassment guide published
Campus faculty and administrators now have a guide defin-
ing what constitutes sexual harassment and its resulting punish-
ments. "The EducatorsGuide to Controlling Sexual Harassment
by Bemice Shandler and Michele Paludi, was published by Th-
ompson Publishing and aids colleges in evaluating their current
sexual harassment policies as well as covering the issues involved
with faculty sexual relations with students. The cost for the guide
and monthly bulletins is $287 and also contains information on
how to investigate harassment complaints.

and other campus newspapers.
avoid involvement in public af-
fairs and other outside activi-
ties that could create a conflict
of interest or the appearance of
one.
"Staff members who are
also members of outside orga-
nizations should not be involved
in the news coverage of the or-
ganizations and should not use
their positions in the student
media to seek publicity or oth-
erwise promote an
organization's interests
A second issue brought to
the Board's attention concerned
a compact disc produced by
three VVZMB employees.
Tim Johnson, former gen-
eral manager, Kevin Brelsford,
former program director, and
Paul Meador, music director ap-
proached the board prior to the
CD's production to request per-
mission for WZMB to sponsor
the disc's production, Johnson
said.
After consulting with Uni-
versity attorneys, this request
was denied. Johnson said the
attorneys cited possible legal
action if the school sponsored
such a production.
Johnson, Brelsford and
Meador pursued the production
on their own. The result was a
compilation of music by local
bands, entitled Escape From the
Emerald City. The problem arose
when the Media Board discov-
ered WZMB's telephone num-
ber prinied on the CD's jacket.
The printed telephone
number associates ECU to the
CD, said Dr. Alfred Matthews,
vice chancellor of Student Life.
"The University is not
likely to pursue any legal action
against the students Matthews
said, "as those involved are no
longer working at WZMB
Brelsford and Meador said
they had no prior knowledge
that WZMB's phone number
would be printed, and attrib-
uted the inside writing to an
ECU student who has since
graduated.
"1 can see (the Media
Board's) point of view on this
Johnson said. "But itall depends
on how a person interprets the
phone number being there
Johnson said the number
was to provide the public with
access to the producers of the
CD, all of whom could be
reached at the WZMB office.
This was deemed a conflict of
interest by the Media Board, and
prompted the Media Board to
draft the ECU Media Board Dec-
laration of Interests. All students
interested in media employment
at ECU will be requested to fill
out such a form.

The unidentified teacher,

Gunmen fire on United Nations military headquarters
(AF) � Gunmen fired on
the U.N. military headquarters
early today and peacekeepers
fought back with a machine-gun
barrage, keeping the city on
edge after a night of clashes.
The fighting, which began
Monday night, was the first
since Saturday, when 23 Paki-
stani soldiers were killed when
they were ambushed by Somali
street fighters in the capital.
Two Somalis died late
Monday in a gunbattle outside
Pakistani military headquar-
ters.
Before dawn today, snip-
ers using machine guns and
rifles began shooting at U.N.
military headquarters in the old
U.S. Embassy compound, said
U.S. Army Maj. David
Stockwell.
U.N. helicopters swooped
low over the city with search-
lights while U.N. troops fired
machine guns in the direction of
the snipers.
There were no reports of
casualties from the half-hour
firefight around U.N. headquar-
ters. Stockwell said the gunmen
apparently were firing from two
locations.
The helicopters continued
to patrol after sunrise today but
there were virtually no military
vehicles on the crowded streets.
Stockwell said sending
U.N. soldiers on foot or in ar-
mored personnel carriers
through the tense city could ag-
gravate the situation.
Barricadesand burned-out
cars littered the streets and for-
eign relief workers were no-
where to be seen, most having
been evacuated after Saturday's
firefight.
The bodies of the Paki-
stanis killed Saturday were to
be flown home today.
U.N. Secretary-General
Boutros Boutros-Ghali sug-
gested Monday that the Secu-
rity Council could set up a spe-
cial court to try Somalis blamed
for Saturday's ambush.
"The Security Council set
up a tribunal for war crimes in
Yugoslavia he said in Paris in
an interview with France 2 tele-
vision.
"We can easily create an
ad-hoc tribunal in Somalia to
condemn those who violated ac-
cords which they signed and
attacked soldiers of peace

SummertimeintheEmeraldGty:
a hot, sticky, sweaty mess of a time.
Qasses blink by, beneath our aware-
ness as we slowly sink into the fleshy
mellow morass that is Greenville in
thesummer. A good time to get lightly
drunk and have sex with an a ttractive
stranger on a moonlit fouton. Or, if
you' re out of condoms, a good time to
1 isten to some music while you wring
that humid Greenville air out of your
shirt
Which brings us to our real topic
of conversation today, a keen little
sample EP from Mercury Records

five songs featured here,threeare nice
little numbers showcasing a rich iinix
of alternative rock styles. Good sum-
mer listening; chill out, love your fel-
low man, thatsort of thing. Well getto
those.
But first, we need to take out the
trash. We've got a couple of Seattle
Sound posers in the mix here, and I'd
like to dispense with their Forty-Dol-
lar-Grungewear-Flannel-Flashing
butts immediately. The groups are
Greta and Animal Bag. They suck.
Greta isagutlessSoundgardenrip-off

Animal Baghasatleasttried some-
thing different the grunge in their
"Everybody" does have a nice funky
edge. Unfortunately, they've fallen
back on too many '70s rock guitar
conventions and a vocal delivery that
recalls Rick James' "Superfreak If
you're not laughing by the end of this
one,stoplisteningandgoleam"where

Okay, the angry part of the re-

Don't Run My Life
by Richard Cranium
I had the bowel-wrenching
pleasure of discourse with some
politically and socially correct
hutrons the other day. One said to
me, "Dick, what's with this 'Don't
Run My Life' stuff? Don't you
think you might offend someone?
You sure seem to pick on a lot of
people. Golly, thatadviceyou give
blah blah blah naggety nag nag

my footin their ass and said, "Don't

I don't get it. Why do some
people always want to get in my
face, acting and thinking like they
know more than I do? Espedally
these "correct" people. Sheesh. I
mean, you and I both know the
Cranium knows almost every-
thing. I am a certified superior
intellect.
So let's try this. Here is the
offidal Don't Run My Life IQ Test.
It's short, so take it. Write your
answers down; if you keep them in
your head, you're cheating.
1) Whatisahutron?
2) Three Chinamen find an
egg in a gutter. The egg is brown
wirhlittlespecklesonit. Whokeeps
it, the oldest, or the youngest?
3) Rudy has three kittens: two
black, one gray. Rudy's sister,
Maya, wants a pet. Is it farther to
the moon or by bus?
4) If three adults and six kids
were going to play a game of touch
football, how should the teams be
divided?
5) Sharon has a pack of juju
beans. If the standard deviation is
plus or minus one above or below
the mean, 1 mean median, or what-
ever, how many jujus must Sharon
eat?
6) Would you rather bea tiger,
a lion or a pair of Wrangler jeans?
7) My Rice Krispiesare talking
to me, what are they saying?
8) In 1865, General Robert E.
Lee su rrendered his bra ve and cou-
rageous army to the treacherous,
heinous Yankees. Reconstruction
began soon afterand lasted til 1890.
How many years did it take the
Republicans to cast the once-glori-
ous South into a cesspool of eco-
nomic ruin, a disastrous boil still
festering in the country more than
a century later? Thank you
Abraham Lincoln, W. T. Sherman,
Ulysses Grant, and Andrew
Johnson! You couldn't just let us
seceed peacefully could you!? Oh
no! You killed Kennedy!
And there you have it. Now.
Each time your answer corre-
sponds with mine, give yourself
five points. If you didn't answer a
question, give yourself zero. And
if you answered wrong, minus five!
1) Hutron is the term for po-
ll ticallyand socially correct people.
Since we can no longer say "man
humans become hutrons. What a
glorious and sexless society these
nugget-heads want to build for us.
Double your score if you hate
hutrons.
2) Why would a person of Far-
Eastern descent want an egg out of
the gutter? This isa racial slur! The
question should be thrown out!
Also, if there were three of them,
why did the question involve only
two? Theanswerisobvious. Since
thediscriminating factor deals with
age, the implication is that the third
Chinaman is ageless. Therefore,
he is Fu Manchu. The presence of
a fictional character renders the
question null and void. So you
should not have answered the
question twice.
3) An interesting and dubious
question, but a simple one. As
siblings, Rudy and Maya should
be able to harmoniously share and
eat the kittens as they will, espe-
dally during the lunar phase of
mass transit Bonus pointsifyou've
ever peed your name in the snow.

there are. Everybody knows girls

'Jurassic Park' anxiously
awaited by audiences
Staff Reports
Also marks debut of Digital
Theater sound System
The East Carolinian
It's the most highly antici-
pated film of the decade and it is
sure to shockand thrill audiences
everywhere. Based on the best-
selling novel by MichealCrichton,
Jurassic Park asks the question:
What if man and dinosaur shared
the earth rgain? The answer is
easy man would become ex-
tinct.
Jurassic Park stars Sam Neill
as Dr. Alan Grant, a renowned pa-
leontologist who is asked to in-
spect the spectacular Jurassic Park;
Laura Dern as hiscolleage, Dr. Ellie
Sartler; Jeff Goldblumasa brilliant
but eccentric and cynical mathema-
tician whose Chaos Theory ex-
plains the danger of the island's
project;SirRichard Attenbourough
as John Hammond, the park's am-
bitious developer; and an award-
winning design team who have
created the most realdinosaursever
seen on screen.
The release of Jurassic Park
also marks the debut of a new
digital theater sound system
called DTS(DigitaI TheaterSys-
tem). DTS differs from other
digital systems in that its digital
soundtrack is on a separate CD-
ROM disk while a digital time
code is printed on the film itself
controlling the CD opperation.
The new DTS not only dramati-
cally increases the quality of
sound but is compatible with
existing theater sound systems.

Question:
What are my risks as a college
student of developing testicular
cancer and can 1 prevent it?
Answer:
Testicular cancer is most com-
mon among men aged 15-34. Men
who have undescended or partially
descended testiclesareparticulary
at risk.
Usually, the first sign of tes-
ticular cancer is a slight enlarge-
ment of one of .the testes and the
formation of a massorlump. (Note:
Most men are not perfetfly sym-
metrical. It is common for one of
the testicles to be slightly larger.)
There is often a dull ache in the
lower abdomen and groin, accom-
panied by a sensation of heavi-
ness. However, there may be no
pain at all.
The National Cancer Soci-
ety recommends that
men perform regular
monthly self-exami-
nations of the tes- .
tides. The best time
to perform the exam (
is after a warm
shower. Place the
thumbsof both hands
on top the testicle and �&
fingers on the underside. Gen-
tly roll the testicles between the
thumb and fingers. A healthy tes-
ticle should be fairly smooth and
firm in consistency. If hard lumps
a
or nodules are detected, see a
health professional immediately.
Thereare individual variations in
the consistency of testicular tis-
sue, so it is important to
become familiar with
f your own anatomy in
order to note
"T changes.
Over the years,
treatment has be-
0 come extremely suc-
!�, cessful with early de-
"Vl tection of a problem. Stud-
ies indicate that men often de-
lay seeking treatment for fear of
sexual performance problems.
Sexual complications rarely oc-
cur as a result of testicular cancer.
'Menace II800161 assured to awake America
Follows same lines as 'Boyz 'N the Hood'
By Ike Shibley
Staff Writer
In the summer of 1991, a film
by a young black director named
John Singleton exploded onto mul-
tiplex screens to presenta poignant,
poetic picture of life in South Cen-
tral Los Angeles. The film was Boys
'N the Hood.
In the summer of 1993, another
filmhasarrived to remind America
that it must never know what exists
in LA. � that film is Menace II
Society.
Though comparisons between
the films may be unwelcome, the
similarities are too great to ignore.
Both films try to realistically por-
tray life in the black inner city. Both
films focus on one main character
(Cuba Goodmg Jr. in Boyz, Tyrin
Turner in Menace). Both directors
are young novices in the world of
cinema (John Singleton was 24 at
tiie time, the Hughes brothers are
21).
Allen and Albert Hughes are
twins who worked together both
on the screenplay and on the direc-
torial chores of Menace II Society.
Together they have brought a
shared vision to the screen in bleak,
brutal,and ultimately artistic terms.
Mertace II Society begins the
same way Boyz 'N the Hood did,
with harsh language heard over a
black screen. Like Boyz, much of the
first part of Menace occurs in the
past
The narrator, Caine (Tyrin
Turner), tells of his criminal father
and drug addicted mother. He tells
how "Pop was killed inadrugdeal"
and "Mom died of an overdose
Caine vas reared by his grand-
parents who tried toassist Caine by
teaching him the ways of religion.
Buthisgrandfather'swords "went
in one ear and out the other
As the story shifts to thepresent,
Caineisseenpreparingtograduate
from high school. Hisgrandparents
are proud of him but Caine's ex-
pressions make it dear that the
achievement means little to him.
Unlike the protagonist in Boyz
'N the Hood, Caine neither despises
nor fears the streets on which he
was raised, although by the end of
the film he is ready to try to begin a
new life in Atlanta (the same dty
the hero of Boyz went to).
Caine deals drugs, commits
robbery and before the final reel,
becomes a murderer. Yet this
troubled youth appears sympa-
thetic to the viewer.
The violence in Menace II Soci-
ety occurs as clips that fade in, then
fade to black. In between the black-
ness intense scenes are played out
�many end ingwith spilled blood.
The episodic nature of the fil m
plays more like a documentary than
a character study. This is the point
where Boyz and Menace begin to
diverge. While Boyz was gripping
for its intense characters, Menace is
gripping because of its intense
scenes. Meriace, for this reason, does
not hold togetherasafilmaswellas
Boyz although it does coalesce as a
sodal statement.
Singleton may express more
poetry in his story but the Hughes
brothers still exhibit an amazing
artistic control. In one scene a five-
yearold, lying in his bed, asks his
mother if Caine will live. The
Hughes slxxit the discussion from
the foot of the bed so that the audi-
ence looks through the spindles of
the bed frame. The shot creates the
effect of a crib, heightening the in-
nocence of the boy's question.
In another especially effective
sequence, Cainewatches Jf'sfl Won-
derful Life with his grandparents.
As the tearful ending unfolds on the
screen, Caine'sfacemakesclear that
this scene iscompletely alien to him.
Capra's vision of an ideal family
cannot speak toCaine, the real world
outside the 1 i ving room looms much
too immediately dangerous.
Another magnificent asset ex-
hibited in Menace II Society is the
film's lack of pretentiousness. Never
does the film find fault. Every
character's actionsare understand-
able in light of the circumstances.
Even when Caine hangs up on
a girl who claims that he sired her
unborn baby, the audience under-
stands him. His actions cannot be
judged too harshly, if at all. He
simply responds toa situation the
way he knows how. Little time is
spent thinking about the past be-
cause the present affords no time
for it.
Menace II Society gels as an
artistic whole. The film disturbs
conventional sensibilities by bring-
ing the audience to the front line in
an ongoing battle in the inner cit-
ies. Though difficult at times to
watch, Menace II Society is one of
the most important films released
so far this year.
Though no answers are given
or sought in the film, the problem
is made painfully dear. Though
sand and sun may fill most of the
summer, every American needs
to spend some time thinking about
this extremely powerful film.

wzmb violates ethics policy I Car alarms erupt into noisy frenzies of panic
Three station employees
receive a tough lesson about
conflicts of interest
It's all about what you love the most. When
you were a kid, you had to choose which favorite
toy would go with vou to the restaurant. When
you grow up, it's no different. Except, in the world
of business, not choosing could cost you your job.
Recently, three employees of WZMB were
given a lucky break considering the seriousness of
their actions. A check written by the former gen-
eral manager paid for an advertisement promot-
ing one of the two bands he was managing ou tside
of WZMB employment.
In addition to this, the program director and
music director were found to have been manag-
ing, promoting and booking club dates for two
bands with the former general manager.
When everything went public, the three men
were given options: they could cease managing
the bands, cease employment at WZMB or ad-
dress the Media Board and request permission to
continue both activities. What they decided really
isn't important (two resigned, while the remain-
ing WZMB employee remained). The really amaz-
ing thing is that the Media Board gave them the
options. Your ass would be long gone in the real
world, kids.
The ECU Media Board was more than gener-
ous with their terms. According to the ethics policy
adopted by the University, "Staff members are
prohibited from using their positions in the stu-
dent media and the influence of the student media
to benefit any outside employment enterprise.
Any outside employment that creates, or gives the
appearance of creating, a conflict of interest is
prohibited
No fancy legal jargon; just straight-forward
talk. Don't involve yourself with another business
venture if it will interfere or influence the place
you already call home.
The conflict of interest is not that the former
employees have given special treatment to the
bands, it's that the possibility of giving them spe-
cial treatment is a factor. The line is a very fine one
to distinguish.
To avoid conflicts from happening in the fu-
ture, The Media Board has plans to distribute a
form to every branch of the university media. It
will ask each student to list any and all outside
employment, whereupon the Board will deter-
mine any potential conflicts of interest.
This really is not the worst thing that could ever
happen to those who work in student media. In fact,
it allows for a more focused group, capable of serving
the East Carolina community more efficiently.
Journalists and media-involved folk have had
just about enough of all the talk about dishonesty
in the press. It's disheartening to think that when
asked, most of the public would slander a fine
institution such as student media, simply because
we are part of a larger, more corrupt, national
media.
The Media Board has brought an issue public
that was screaming to be dealt with. It allows all of
us the opportunity to check our own tracks. How
many times have you tried to do two things at
once, only to find that one action is detrimental to
the other? There is a valuable, necessary lesson to
be learned here.
Don't try to sneak that other toy into the
restaurant. You'll more than likely receive a wallop
for your efforts.

"You are standing too close
to the vehicle. Please step away.
An alarm will sound in ten sec-
onds. Whoop! Whoop! "
Have you ever been walk-
ing through a parking lot, just
minding your own business,
when suddenly, some uppity,
snooty car starts talking to you?
Well, admonishingyou is a better
phrase, I suppose.
It has happened to me on
numerous occasions. Itseemsthat
more and more people are in-
stalling car alarms with each pass-
ing day, many of them with "prox-
imity alarms
The fdet that no one trusts
anyone around their car nowa-
days doesn't really surprise me.
What does surprise me is that
some of the cars sporting expen-
sive alarm systems aren't worth
stealing. Call me stupid, but I fail
to understand the logic behind
putting a $300 alarm system in a
car worth $250. Are these people
afraid that someone's going to
steal their pine tree air freshen-
ers
Some people treat their
alarms as expensive toys. One
night as I was returning from
downtown, this guy sitting at his
window with obviously nothing
better to do activates his car a larm
as I'm walking by it, probably in
some childish attempt to scare
me. Now being a true '90s kinda
gu y, I 'm used to tha t sort of th i ng,
it didn't scare me a bit and I pleas-
antly flipped the guy off and went
about my business.
This brings me to my larg-
est point: no one cares when an
alarm goes off. Asa society, we've
grown accustomed to hearing au-
tomotivedistresssignalsemanat-
ing from parking lots everywhere,
and most of us tune them out.
Even if we do hear them, all they
do is cause irritation and the de-
sire to strangle the inconsiderate
owner who for some reason re-
fuses to turn it off. Just how many
of us would risk our necks to save
someone else's car in the event of
a break in that the owner was
unable to respond to?
Many owners cling to the
belief that their alarms will al-
waysalertthemintheeventofan
emergency .This is simply not the
case. On several occasions, I have
been awakened and kept awake
by ala rms that continued to sound
until the batteries of the cars
(much to my wicked delight) have
expired. Obviously, the alarms
weren't enough to awake these
unfortunate owners, and they
seem just a tad self-defeating.
Having a formerly noisy car that
won't start in the morning seems
a dubious comfort.
Besides that, there are cer-
tain "wicked elements" (myself
among them) who delight in
standing too close to these ve-
hicles or kicking them in the tire
for the exact purpose of sending
the car, and subsequently the
owner of the car, into a noisy
frenzy of panic. It's a harmless
pastime, and an infinitely amus-
ing one, plus it doesn't cost any-
thing. I would certainly recom-
mend it to anyone, as long as
you're fast enough to flee from
irate car owners.
My main point is this:
don't bother getting a car alarm
unless you've got a Corvette or
something comparable. You
could probably replace what-
ever was taken or damaged for
the cost of an alarm plus instal-
lation costs, so why bother?
You'd only be able to look for-
ward to dead batteries, innu-
merable false alarms (particu-
larly during thunderstorms),
and assholes like me who enjoy
setting them off for no reason,
other than it canbe really funny,
depending on the outcome of
the situation. So save your
money, kids, especially if you
drive a Gremlin or the like. Buy
a cool set of rims, or better yet,
save your pennies and buy a
better car (especially if you
drive a Gremlin.)
Now stop reading, think
about it, go get a pizza, and
watch some cartoons.

Letters to the Editor
Tailgater taps into frustrations concerning keg ban
The East Carolinian
Lindsay Fernandez, General Manager
Joseph Horst, Managing Editor
Matthew A. Hege, Advertising Director
Printed on
100 recycled
paper
To the Editor:
I am writing this letter
about the asinine idea to ban
kegs from tailgating. If you
think it will limit the drinking
tha t goes on at tailgating, think
again. The only thing that it
will cause are problems. If you
consider how much beer is con-
sumed at tailgating, then imag-
ine the number of empty cans
and bottles that will be left on
the ground; you see that ban-
ning kegs only causes trash
problems. The only person I
can see benefiting from this
policy is the recycler who picks
up all the cans. The University
of South Carolina has a no-keg
policy. When I wasdown there
for the game last year, I could
not believe how trashy their
tailgating field looked (even
before I stepped on a broken
beer bottle).
If the members of the
Safety Task Force think that
drinking out of a can will re-
duce the risks of fighting, they
had better try again. People
will still drink as much beer
and they will still get in as
many fights. Instead of hitting
a person with their fists, now
they will be hitting mem over
the head with glass bottles. I
don't know about you, but I
would rather be hit by a fist
instead of a bottle.
To prove my point about
drinking outof a keg; if you go
to a bar downtown on any
giver weekend, people are
drinking outof cans and bottles
and I would estimate that
there are at least three to five
fights a night in all the bars
combined. So that pretty much
shoots the keg theory.
All I know is that I am a
senior at ECU and some of the
best times I can remember here
at East Carolina have been my
afternoons on the tailgating
field. Outlawing the use of
kegs is only going to cost the
students more money (money
they are willing to spend) and
cause many trash problems
for everyone else. I think
tilings have gone well in the
past and in my opinion, "If it
ain't broke, don't fix it

Shark swimming
emerges as new
neurotic pastime
I watched "I Witness Video" Sunday
night. What I saw, coupled with the Barney
phenomenon sweeping the nation, made me
realize that America is on the verge of a na-
tional nervous breakdown.
The latest craze of the adrenaline-defi-
cientamongusistofind sharksand swim with
them. That's right, people willingly don
SCUBA gear and jump into an ocean teeming
with hungry sharks. How do I know they're
hungry? Sharks, as anyone who saw "jaws"
knows, are always hungry. Eating is one of
only three things sharks do, according to Matt
Hooper(Richard Ereyfuss)of the Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institute. The other twothings
are swim and "make little sharks
What kills me about this new and dan-
gerous pursuit is the amazing dichotomy it
presents. On one hand you've got a group of
everyday swimmers, like myself, who go to
the beach to enjoy a nice shark-free frolic in the
ocean. This group has seen "Jaws and some
of us have even memorized Robert Shaw's
"Indianapolis" monologue from the film and
are wont to begin reciting it when we've had
too many rum and Cokes. We swim facing
seaward, always on the lookout for a dark,
ominous dorsal fin to slice through the emer-
ald waves toward us.
The other group,those who thinka meal
of potentially deadly blowfish is a real kick in
the pants, pay money to be dropped into what
is essentially a shark-broth. What's scary is,
these folks are oftentimes doctors, engineers
and lawyers. We know why the lawyers can
swim with sharks without fear of being at-
tacked: professional courtesy. (Forgive me.)
Gettingback to "I Witness Videooneof
these thrill seekers took his video camera un-
derwater with him. The tape shows him and
his fellow loonies swimming about with sev-
eral circling sharks, most of them makos. Sud-
denly oneof these makosglidesup to thediver
with the camera, bumps him once and pro-
ceeds to bite down on his arm, violently shak-
ing backand forth. It'squite unnerving to hear
this hapless man screaming into his face mask,
totally at the mercy of the shark.
Another diver comes to the rescue and
prods the shark into turning loose. The dam-
age has been done. A Coast Guard helicopter
is summoned to airlift the badly wounded
diver to a hospital. Fortunately the diver es-
caped with his life and his arm.
How much did it cost the U.S. Coast
Guard, not to mention the U.S. taxpayers, to
airlift this badly mangled and bleeding "thrill
seeker " to the hospita 1? Nodoubt costs ran into
the thousands of dollars. All because this man
made a conscious decision to put himself de-
liberately in harm's way. Incidentally, experts
arequick to pointoutthatsharksare the nicest,
most benevolent creatures in the ocean, and
never intend to hurt humans. These "experts"
also think Elvis was killed to coverup informa-
tion concerning JFK's assassination. (Watch
for the Oliver Stone film conting soon.)
Asa less costly alternative to swimming
with sharks, why don't these people just take
a ride on Amtrak? It's equally as dangerous
and won't set the taxpayers back as much. Or
perhaps they could become Bill Clinton nomi-
11(1 "S.
Nope, come to thinkof it, that's probably
,i little too nsky. I d take the sharks any day.

Exit , French drama di-
rected by Ciara Liberman, will be
Ad Hoe's final offer erf their first
sea son asaprofessional company.
Sartre's plavs dominated the
stage from the postwar period in
France until at least 1951, and co-
incided with the emergence of
what came to be known as "the
theater of the absurd
His plays rank as classics and
are part of the literary history of
our time. The importance of his
work in the theaterand its leading
part in the history of contempo-
rary drama are now fully recog-
nized.
Sartre wrote "No Exit" in
1943and early 1944 because three
friends wanted to perform in a
play of his, each of them with equal
roles. That meant that he had to
have them all on the stage at the
same time and they had to remain
there; if one of them exited, he
would think the others had a bet-
ter role. To keep these people to-
gether to the end, as if for eternity,
�. cured to him to put them in
and make each the other's
Mrturer.
"No Exit' deals with three
people in a "hell" of their own
making. The play explores rela-
tionships: how other people are
responsible for the wav we see
ourselves. Into whatever we say
or feel about ourselves, someone
else's judgement alwaysenters the
picture, which means that if any
relation is bad, we are situating
ourselves in a total dependence
on someone else, and are indeed
in hell.
In Sartre's own words " to
be enwrapped in a perpetual care
for judgements and actionswh.ch
we do not want to change is a
living death since we are alive,
I wanted to show by means of the
absurd the importanceof freedom
to us no matter what circle of
hell we a re living in, I think we are
free to break out of it
"No Exit" will feature Marc
Garber, Michele Seidman, Theresa
Campana and Bob Sayer.

The summer's major exhibition
at the North Carolina Museum of
Art in Raleigh gives North Carolin-
ians a rare chance to see paintings
from Eastern Europe.
"The Naked Soul: Polish paint-
ings from the National Museum,
Poznan" showcases 46 paintings,
many never seen in the United States,
by Pol ish artists working at the tu m
of the century. The exhibition, on
view through August 1 at the Mu-
seum, provides a rare glimpse into
the nationalistic spirit that charac-
terized Poland a century ago.
For North Carol inians who can-
not travel to Raleigh to view the
paintings and hear their stories, the
Museum has produced a slide pro-
gram about the exhibition that is
presented throughout the state to
schools, civic groups and cultural
groups by the Museum's outreach
volunteers. The program is also a

Crandell ready to man helm
Pirates start season with promising young gun
By Misha Zonn
Marcus Crandell
Photo by Cedric Van Buran
Assistant Sports Editor
When the Pirate football team
marches into Ficklen Stadium in
September to face the Syracuse
Orangemen, there will be many
questions facing the team about
the game and the season.
Will there be an early defen-
sive breakdown like there was in
last year's opening game against
Syracuse?
Will some of the inexperienced
players at the wide receiver spot
beable to handle theoffensive load,
created by ECU's possession route
oriented offense?
Despite the many questions
floa ting around before ga me ti me,
the spotlight will inevitably be fo-
cused on one player.
That one player will be Marcus
Crandell.
Crandell was officdally handed
the reins of the ECU offense after
last year's quarterback, Michael
Anderson, left school for undis-
closed academic reasons. Crandell,
a redshirt freshman, spent last sea-
son leading the scout team in simu-
lated game situations in order to
better prepare the ECU defense
for the next week's opponent. This
year, it will be the real thing.
To most, it might seem as if
ECU's high tech offense would be
a burden to a young quarterback.
However, Crandell said that the
big time passing attack was one of
the things that first attracted him
to ECU when he was being re-
cruited at Robersonville High
School.
"One of the things that I really
liked about the ECU program was
theoffense'Crandell said. "Other
schools weren't recruiting me as a
quarterback. ECU gave me an op-
portunity to play QB in an offense
with a lot of passing. In high school,
the offense was a lot different be-
cause I didn't get to pass as much
aslwilihere. Theoffenseispretty
complicated, but I'm getting used
to it
Crandell will probably be
passing a lot when he makes his
debut in front of the home crowd
at Ficklen, as well as the national
ESPN audience.
Crandell says that he is not
trying to concentrate on all the
added pressures. He is only focus-
ing on goingout and doing his job.
"I feel thatiflgooutthere and
take itonegameata time, I can put
somedoubtstorest'Crandellsaid.
"I look at the idea of coming in
immediately as an opportunity
more than anything. I just need to
go out there and prove myself
Crandell'sstyleofplayshould
prove to be exciting for Pirate faith-
ful. Some might find his style of
play and physical abilities to be
similar to that of former ECU quar-
terback Jeff Blake. Crandell said
that he could see where some
people might make comparisons,
but that in the long run there were
many differences.
"I'm the type of quarterback
who is more comfortable scram-
bling he said. "I (would) rather
do that than stand in the pocket.
On the field, I don't talk very much.
I just try and lead by example, and
get the job done
As Crandell attempts to get
the job done on the field, there will
be many veteran ECU players at
his side, helping him along the
way. One of those players, se-
nior tight end Carlester
Crumpler, said one of the main
things young players like
Crandell need isencouragement
Crumpler understands
Crandell's style of play is totally
different from that of Anderson,
the former ECU QB.
"You just have to go with
you're God-given abilities
Crumpler said. "Michael was the
type of player who could stand
in the pocket and see everything.
Marcus, because of hisheight, is
going to be a better player when
he's moving around and scram-
bling out of the pocket
For now, Crandell is more
concerned with the immediate
future than he is with thinking
about where he will beat theend
of the season.
Two-a-day practices will be-
gin in August, where Crandell
will have to prove himself in
front of his teammates and
coaches, before he will get the
golden opportunity to prove
himself under the lights of
Ficklen Stadium.
Watkinsdrafted by Cincinnati
Reds in second round as junior
GREENVILLE,N.C(SID)�
East Carolina outfielder Pat
Watkins has been taken as the
firstpkk of theCincinna ti Reds in
Thursday'smajor league Baseball
draft announced Reds' officials.
The 32nd pick overall,
Watkinswasa supplemental first-
round pick for the Reds. The team
received the pick for the loss of
Type A free agent Greg Swindell
who signed in the offseason wi th
the Houston Astros.
A native of Garner, N.C,
Watkins led the Pirates in batting
(.445), hit 19 home runs, drove in
57 runs and had 29 stolen bases,
With 29extra base hits, Watkins
Ted the team with a 764 slugging
percentage.
Watkins' list of accolades for
the 1993 season continues to grow
and to date, he has been named as
the 1993 Colonial Athletic Asso-
ciation Player of the Year, ECAC
Co-Player of the Year, BASEBALL
AMERICA first team All-America,
MIZUNO second-team Ail-
America arid All-NCAA Atlantic
Regional. In addition, Watkins is
one of the 38 players invited to
the Team USA tryout in June
Watkins' pick in the draft is
the highest ever for an ECU base-
ball player.
In 1973, Tommy Toms was
picked by the Philadelphia
Phillies in the fifth round. During
ECU'S history, several players
have been chosen by the Reds
including John Gast (1991) and
Kevin Riggs (1990).
Petrovic dies in auto accident
FRANKFURT, Germany (AP)
� Drazen Petrovic, a raw Euro-
pean talent who developed into
one of the NBA's top shooting
guards in two-plus seasons with
the New Jersey Nets, died in an
automobile accident. He was 28.
Policesaid Petrovic was killed
about 5:20 p .m. Monday, 15 miles
north of Ingolstadt on the high-
way going to Munich.
He was traveling in a
Volkswagen Golf with two
women and was sitting in the front
passenger seat.
In heavy rain, the Golf
slammed into a trailer truck that
had skidded on the slippery road.
The 23-year-old driver of the Golf
apparently had to brake suddenly
MLB Draft crop thick with North Carolinians
and lost control, hitting the rail
separating lanes headed in the
opposite direction and then hit-
ting the truck.
The driver and 53-year-old
female passenger sustained seri-
ous injuries.
In downtown Zagreb in
Petrovic's native Croatia, friends
met in his coffee bar, Amadeus,
early in the morning after It fil-
ing of his death.
"What can I tell you we all
lost today, this is an incredible
loss said Stojko Vrankovic, a
former Boston Celtics player who
now plays in Greece.
"This is the worst shock in
my life said Neven Spahija,
coach of Cibona Zagreb, Petrovic's
former team. "We are all here
now, watching each other, not
believing, weeping.
"Drazen's mother, Biserka,
was especially close to Drazen
and she was the hardest hit by
news. Drazen's brother, Aco,
took the parents somewhere out
of town to be in peace
Aco, whose full name is
Aleksandar, is also a coach with
Cibona and played alongside his
younger brother in the 1980s.
The Croatian national team
is in Zagreb for the next 10 days,
preparing for the Mediterranean
Games. The team returned Mon-
day from Poland via Frankfurt,
while Drazen went to Munich,
apparently to visit his girlfriend.
(AP)�Trot Nixon hasa choice
to make.
Will he accept the average
$639,000 contract offered to last
year's top 10 picks in the baseball
draft, or will he put off pro base-
ball to play football and baseballat
North Carolina State University,
where he verbally committed in
December?
Either way, Nixon will be do-
ing what he does � and loves �
best. Playing baseball.
"From day 1, it's going to be a
challenge Nixon said Thursday
after being selected as the num-
ber-one pick of the Boston Red
Sox. "I want to get dirty. I want to
get sweaty. I want to get nasty.
There are a lot of guys, and I'm one
of them, who would play for the
heck of it.
"The Red Sox are giving me a
chance, and I'm going todoevery-
thing possible to make it happen. I
justwanttoberememberedasone
of bestball players who ever lived.
Heroes are to be remembered. But
legends never die. I'm going to do
whatever it takes to become a leg-
end
Nixon was the seventh overall
pick in Thursday's annual ama-
teur baseball draft.
A record 18 pitchers were se-
lected in the first round, including
seven of the first 10 picks. Sixteen
of the 28 were college players.
The Red Sox ended a string of
five consecutive college pitchers
by taking Nixon, an outfielder for
New Hanover High School. Nixon
is hitting .530 with 10 homers and
49RBIsin66at-bats. Healsopitches
andisl0-0witha0.48ERAand 104
strikeouts and 29 walks in 58 2-3
innings.
Meanwhile, the Cincinnati
Reds used their first available pick
in the free agent draft to take Pat
Watkins, an outfielder from East
Carolina University.
Watkins, 20, was the 32nd
player taken. The Reds did not
have a first-round pick because of
the free agent signing of pitcher
John Smiley.
Watkins batted .445 with 19
homers and 57 RBIs this season as
a junior at East Carolina. He also
stole 29 bases in 60 games.
The Seattle Mariners used their
top choice in baseball's amateur
draft to pick Alex Rodriguez.
"We just decided to roll the
dice and gowitha positionplayer
Roger Jongewaard, the Mariners'
vice president of scouting and
player development, said Thurs-
day after making the pick. "There's
a certain risk factor in takinga high
school kid that we're well aware

The last time Seattle selected
first was 1987 when they took Ken

Canadiens succeed in overtime for
tenth time in NHL playoffs games
INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) �
Overtime is the right time for the
Montreal Canadiens.
"Wehave 10 wins in overtime
and every goal we have scored has
been on second and third effort,
and tonightwasnodifferent'said
Montreal captain Guy Carbonneau
after the Canadiens beat Los An-
geles 3-2 Monday nightand moved
within one game of their 24th
Stanley Cup.
If they go to overtime on
Wednesday night in Game 5 of the
finals in Montreal, no one would
be surprised.
The Canadiens have made
overtimegames their way of life in
the playoffs, winning a record 10
straight this season after losing one
to Quebec in the first round. Their
victory on Monday nightwas their
third straight in overtime over the
Kings, giving them a 3-1 lead in
the best-of-7 series.
For the second straight game,
itwasfohn LeClairwhoscored the
winner.
"Because of our record and
becauseofthewayourteamplays,
(overtime) is something that we
approach with a lot of confidence
and a lot of optimism said
Montreal forward Brian Bellows.
"We use all 20 players, so
everyone's pretty rested. When
you have the best goalie in the
league, it really makes a differ-
ence
As usual, Patrick Roy made
the difference in overtime. He
blocked 10 shots in the extra pe-
riod and extended his overtime
shutout streak in the playoffs to 96
minutes and 39 seconds. He has
stopped 58 shots in that span.
"There is no better goalie in
hockey than Patrick Roy right
now Montreal coach Jacques
Demers said.
"Hewasthedifference in over-
time Kings coach Barry Melrose
said of Roy. "I thought we had
(some) glorious chances
Actually, both teams did in a
wide-open fast-paced overtime
period that practically had more
action than the rest of the game
combined. The Kings outshot the
Canadiens 10-7 in the overtime
period.
"We worked hard said Kings
captain Wayne Gretzky. "We're
not getting beat because of lack of
intensity or lack of effort. We're
just getting beat right now, it's as
simple as that
Game4 was similar to Game3
at the L.A. Forum, when the
Canadiens rushed to a 3-0 lead,
only to see the Kings tie it.
This time, it was2-0 Canadiens
as Kirk Muller scored from the left
circle off a faceoff at 10:57 of the
firstand Vincent Damphousse con-
nected on a shot from the lower
right circle at 5:24 of the second
with the Canadiens on a power
play.

Darren Dreifort, a right-

was taken second by Los Angeles.
He is 10-1 with a 2.23 ERA and has
110 strikeouts and 30 walks in 93
innings going into the College

Other notable picks included
Kirk Presley, Elvis' third cousin,
who was taken by the New York
Mets with the eighth pick.
Nixon has three options: Sign
with the Red Sox; play football at
N.C. State while playing profes-
sional baseball or play both college
sports for N.C. State and re-enter
the major league draft in two years.
Last winter, when he commit-
ted with the Wolfpack, Nixon left
open theopti on of playing pro base-
ball. His senior season, which in-
cluded a six-game home-run
streak, helped make him a first-
round pick.
History suggests Nixon will
sign with the Red Sox. Only ahand-
ful of top 10 picks have turned
down the money and gone on to
college.
