nia-Berkeley.<lb/>
Alford, who will graduate<lb/>
from the master's program in De-<lb/>
cember, received $3,000 to be ap-<lb/>
plied towards his education.<lb/>
Over 400 students in Master's<lb/>
of Business Administration pro-<lb/>
grams across the United States<lb/>
applied for the scholarship. Alford<lb/>
was one of the 25 who were<lb/>
awarded the scholarship based on<lb/>
his academic accomplishments.<lb/>
Alford also wrote an essay,<lb/>

as many as 61 representatives.<lb/>
Executive office elections<lb/>
are usually held in the spring, but<lb/>
due to the resignation of Michael<lb/>
Carnes, the SGA is holding a sec-<lb/>

While many Americans<lb/>
anxiously focus on the Clinton<lb/>
administration's proposed so-<lb/>
lutions to health care, one indi-<lb/>
vidual is focusing on specific<lb/>
health problems; where they<lb/>
originate, and why there are so<lb/>
many medical differences be-<lb/>
tween blacks and whites.<lb/>
The Minority Presence Ini-<lb/>
tiative recently presented a lec-<lb/>
ture on African-American health<lb/>
issues, which was sponsored by<lb/>
the ECU Department of Child<lb/>
Developmental and Family Re-<lb/>
lations.<lb/>
Dr. Norman B. Anderson,<lb/>
a professor of psychiatry and<lb/>
psychology at Duke University,<lb/>
was the guest speaker for the<lb/>
evening.<lb/>
He has devoted 10 years<lb/>
to the study of health issues re-<lb/>
lated to African-Americans.<lb/>
His research includes hy-<lb/>
pertension, cardiovascular dis-<lb/>
ease, autonomic nervous system<lb/>
response, cancer and interven-<lb/>
tion strategies to improve the<lb/>
health of the African-American<lb/>
population.<lb/>
Dr. Anderson, a native of<lb/>
Greensboro, received his Bach-<lb/>
elor of Arts degree in psychol-<lb/>
ogy from North Carolina Cen-<lb/>
tral University and received his<lb/>
masters and doctorate degrees<lb/>
from the University of North<lb/>
Carolina at Greensboro.<lb/>
He is a member of several<lb/>
organizations?the American<lb/>
Psychological Association, the<lb/>
Society of Behavioral Medicine,<lb/>
the Gerontological Society of<lb/>
America and the Association of<lb/>
Black Psychologists, just to name<lb/>
a few.<lb/>

study.<lb/>

oed by Dr. Alvin Volkman, Asso-<lb/>
ciate Dean for Research and<lb/>
Graduate Studies at the ECU<lb/>
School of Medicine.<lb/>
Dr. Volkman and others<lb/>
were on hand Thursday afternoon<lb/>
in the Brody Medical Sciences<lb/>
Building to kickoff a new fund-<lb/>
raising ? campaign for<lb/>
ResearchlNorth Carolina, a non-<lb/>
profit alliance promoting new dis-<lb/>
coveries in health.<lb/>
Mayor Nancy Jenkins and<lb/>
Dr. Thomas Irons, Senior Associ-<lb/>
ate Dean of the School of Medi-<lb/>
cine, gave the welcome. Irons de-<lb/>
scribed the role the medical school<lb/>
will play in the health research<lb/>
field.<lb/>
"We here at ECU have a<lb/>
unique position to be able to do<lb/>
something about the lack of medi-<lb/>
cal research. We have significant<lb/>
research strengths even though<lb/>
our primary goal is not to be a<lb/>
research institution<lb/>
Irons also pointed out that<lb/>
more money is spent on Nintendo<lb/>
games by the public than is spent<lb/>
on medical research. Volkman<lb/>
said that only three percent of the<lb/>
$900 billion spent on health care<lb/>
goes toward research.<lb/>
Mary Wooley, President of<lb/>
ResearchlAmerica, the parent<lb/>
group of ResearchlNorth Caro-<lb/>
lina, presented an overview of the<lb/>
campaign. She asked for more<lb/>
government spending on health<lb/>
research.<lb/>
"Nine out of 10 people be-<lb/>
lieve more should be done by gov-<lb/>
ernment. Citizens at the 70 per-<lb/>
cent level are willing to be taxed<lb/>
to increase medical research. How<lb/>
come elected representatives<lb/>
aren't making sure, as President<lb/>
Clinton said, that medical research<lb/>
is truly safeguarded?"<lb/>
After Wooley spoke, three<lb/>
professors gave presentations on<lb/>
their research work accomplished<lb/>
through grants from the National<lb/>
Institutes of Health.<lb/>
Dr. D. Kirk Ways, associate<lb/>
Professor of Medicine and Direc-<lb/>
See RESEARCH page 3<lb/>
Anderson said. "Behavioral<lb/>
medicine is basically an inter-<lb/>
disciplinary field, it's a phi-<lb/>
losophy where you accept that<lb/>
medical problems aren't just<lb/>
due to biological factors, but<lb/>
involve psychological, behav-<lb/>
ioral, social and cultural fac-<lb/>
tors, and those factors can be<lb/>
used in treat-ment<lb/>
Dr. Anderson's lecture<lb/>
covered factors that contrib-<lb/>
ute to the large variation be-<lb/>
tween black and white death<lb/>
rates.<lb/>
Life expectancy, accord-<lb/>
ing to race and sex, is seven<lb/>
years shorter for the black<lb/>
male than the white male, and<lb/>
life expectancy for the black<lb/>
female is five years shorter<lb/>
than the white female.<lb/>
"Homicide rates are<lb/>
higher for the black male,<lb/>
which is primarily true for the<lb/>
young black male between the<lb/>
ages of fifteen and thirty-<lb/>
four Anderson said.<lb/>
"Are genetic factors re-<lb/>
sponsible for black and white<lb/>
differences in health?" Ander-<lb/>
son said. "I answer that ques-<lb/>
tion very simply, no<lb/>
According to Anderson,<lb/>
we are too mixed up geneti-<lb/>
cally, and the individual dif-<lb/>
ferences are more important<lb/>
than group differences.<lb/>
Anderson discussed sev-<lb/>
eral factors that explained the<lb/>
health differences between<lb/>
blacks and whites, such as the<lb/>
socioeconomic status of blacks<lb/>
and whites compared to their<lb/>
residential area.<lb/>
"Living in an impover-<lb/>
ished area carries with it in-<lb/>
creased risk for all-cause mor-<lb/>
tality Anderson said.<lb/>
Anderson explained that<lb/>
poor whites don't generally<lb/>
live in an impoverished area<lb/>
compared to the number of<lb/>
poor blacks who generally do.<lb/>

OPEC agrees to put a cap on production<lb/>
GENEVA (AP)?Desperate<lb/>
to force oil prices higher, OPEC<lb/>
nations agreed today to cap their<lb/>
surging crude production at 24.5<lb/>
million barrels a day in the coming<lb/>
months.<lb/>
But OPEC Secretary-General<lb/>
Subroto said the ministers have yet<lb/>
to set individual pumping limits<lb/>
for each of the dozen member coun-<lb/>
tries.<lb/>
"We have now solved 50 per-<lb/>
cent of the problem he told re-<lb/>
porters after a morning meeting of<lb/>
the Organization of Petroleum Ex-<lb/>
porting Countries.<lb/>
The decision to set a new out-<lb/>
put ceiling for the OctDec. quarter<lb/>
came after reports that President<lb/>
Hashemi Rafsanjani of Iran con-<lb/>
ferred by phone with King Fahd of<lb/>
Saudi Arabia and stressed the need<lb/>
for cooperation to drive up prices.<lb/>
OPEC's excess production<lb/>
has helped force oil prices to their<lb/>
lowest levels in three years, with<lb/>
prices running about $6 a barrel<lb/>
below the $21 target.<lb/>
Negotiations had focused on<lb/>
a new production ceiling of 24.3<lb/>
million to24.5millionbarrelsof oil<lb/>
a day for the final three months of<lb/>
the year. The group now pumps<lb/>
about24.7 million barrelsaday?<lb/>
a million barrels over the cap set<lb/>
for the July-Sept, quarter.<lb/>
With demand expected to<lb/>
rise ahead of the winter heating<lb/>
season in the United States and<lb/>
Europe, the ministers hope pro-<lb/>
duction restraint will lift prices.<lb/>

Students walk in silence<lb/>
students and faculty members silently marched<lb/>

. four years ago. The silent marchhasbeen<lb/>
held eni Gray, an Appalachian student, was ab-<lb/>

a student who was abducted and sexually assaulted bv the man who<lb/>
murdered Gray, converged on the student center in early September,<lb/>
w here they listened to speeches they hope will raise awareness and<lb/>
dispel fears. The Boone, .C, campus has a history of violence.<lb/>
Gray's abduction took place a block from the campus, and last year<lb/>
a highly publicized rape took place in a central part of the campus.<lb/>

Heisman Trophy winner returns<lb/>
After 20 years, a Heisman Trophy winner is back in the classroom at<lb/>
the University of Nebraska-Lincoln working toward a degree thathe<lb/>
never received, according to The Nebraskan, the UNL newspaper.<lb/>
Former Cornhusker wingbacker Johnny Rogers, 42, who was awarded<lb/>
the Heisman Trophy in 1972, said he regrets not completing the<lb/>
coursework for his degree, and this time he'll stay in school until he<lb/>
completes his education. Rogers, a Lincoln resident, is president of<lb/>
the Omaha-based Malcolm X Memorial Foundation. His education<lb/>
is being paid for by the Northeastern University Center for the Study<lb/>
of Sport in Society.<lb/>
No means no at Antioch University<lb/>
At Antioch University you better believe it if someone says they don't<lb/>
want to kiss you. Or hug you. Or go to bed with you. It could mean<lb/>
your college career. The small liberal arts school, in Yellow Springs,<lb/>
Ohio, has a sexual offense policy that requires students to give and<lb/>
receive verbal consent for every act of affection, from touching to<lb/>
kissing to sexual intercourse. In addition, if an Antioch student ?<lb/>
male or female ? fails to disclose having a sexually-transmitted<lb/>
disease and has intercourse with another student, it could mean a<lb/>
suspension of three months or more. "Some say we are too strin-<lb/>
gent said Marian Jensen, dean of students at the college. "But all we<lb/>
are asking for is that students use respect and common sense The<lb/>
13-page policy, which was recently revised, covers issues such as<lb/>
rape, sexual assault, insistent or persistent sexual harassment, non-<lb/>
disclosure of a known positive HIV status, and non-disclosure of a<lb/>
known sexually-transmitted disease.<lb/>

TuesdayOpinion<lb/>
Clinton's health-care plan<lb/>
Proposed reform designed to<lb/>
insure all Americen citizens, offer<lb/>
more secure coverage<lb/>
Even if vou don't agree with all of the nuances<lb/>
and small print featured in Clinton's American<lb/>
Health Security Act, vou have to admit that the man<lb/>
has really got it goin' on in terms of focusing on the<lb/>
issues.<lb/>
Yes, he started out very badly. Yes, the fight for<lb/>
gays in the military was embarrassing. And we<lb/>
can't forget about the North American trade agree-<lb/>
ment, can we? But last week, President Clinton<lb/>
presented to America a plausible, workable plan<lb/>
that could very well improve the country and ben-<lb/>
efit everyone.<lb/>
In his speech to Congress last Wednesday night,<lb/>
Clinton laid out in clear terms what he wanted ?<lb/>
guaranteed health care for all by the end of 1997<lb/>
without regard to their income or medical status.<lb/>
And he did this by giving the opposition a choice:<lb/>
they can either join him in reforming health care or<lb/>
opt for the status quo.<lb/>
There are currently an estimated 37 million<lb/>
uninsured people in this country and the system is<lb/>
heading for bankruptcy faster than you can say<lb/>
"Medicare Certainly it isn't too much to ask that<lb/>
every citizen in a country as advanced technologi-<lb/>
cally and medically as America receive health care.<lb/>
Lately, though, you may wonder.<lb/>
All too obvious is that in an election year, there<lb/>
isn't a politician alive who wants to look bad. De-<lb/>
spite deep divisions, two factors lead most lawmak-<lb/>
ers to predict passage by next fall: Republicans<lb/>
have an equal stake in seeing something enacted<lb/>
and lawmakers of both parties fear facing the voters<lb/>
in 1994 without a final product.<lb/>
Included in the plan is coverage for treatment<lb/>
in hospitals or doctors' offices, prescription drugs,<lb/>
dental work for children, mental health and sub-<lb/>
stance abuse treatment, outpatient exams, eye-<lb/>
glasses for children, ambulances, pregnancy ser-<lb/>
vices (including abortion) hospice and home care,<lb/>
rehabilitation services and medical devices.<lb/>
This protects consumer choice and sustains the<lb/>
quality of care, something often lacking in many<lb/>
areas of the country. The plan does this by creating<lb/>
regional health "alliances" that will license a vari-<lb/>
ety of insurance plans. Washington will dictate the<lb/>
basic health care package and pay the premiums for<lb/>
the poor and unemployed.<lb/>
Clinton pledged to enact the health-care plan<lb/>
without any new broad-based taxes and he called<lb/>
for a new tax on tobacco to help foot the bill. Clinton<lb/>
also acknowledged that his $700 billion, 5-year plan<lb/>
will be a tough sell. "There can't be any something<lb/>
fornothingThisisnota free system he said. And<lb/>
he's right, you know.<lb/>
The pian is not perfect. And perhaps it isn't<lb/>
even everyone's first choice. But at least the presi-<lb/>
dent has skillfully woven a compromise that pro-<lb/>
vides the blueprint we need to move ahead in the<lb/>
right direction. It would be ridiculous to think that<lb/>
the plan that Clinton has proposed will make it ?<lb/>
unchanged? to Congress and then passed into law.<lb/>
but it's a start.<lb/>
Under the current system, a person is discrimi-<lb/>
nated against if they are sick or a have a disease that<lb/>
they never asked for in the first place. And looking<lb/>
at it that way, there is something dreadfully wrong<lb/>
with this country. Kudos to Clinton for bringing a<lb/>
little humanism back into the American fibre.<lb/>

<lb/>
Why ask why?" prompts philosophical thoughts<lb/>
You know those Bud Dry<lb/>
commercials? Tin? ones where the<lb/>
speaker says " why ask whv?" af-<lb/>
ter asking some prettv intriguing<lb/>
questions about relationships,<lb/>
politics, life and so forth? I like<lb/>
those commercials. They make me<lb/>
laugh: thev get me thinking.<lb/>
Nevermind the fact that the un-<lb/>
derlying message is, "get drunk<lb/>
and vou won't care why any:<lb/>
more I still like them.<lb/>
Why is that?<lb/>
I've tried that "why ask why"<lb/>
approach to curiosity; 1 drank a<lb/>
Bud but for some reason or other,<lb/>
I was still asking why. For ex-<lb/>
ample, why was I drinking an<lb/>
unfamiliar brand of beer? I even<lb/>
came up with an answer: 1 had<lb/>
been suckered by a commercial.<lb/>
After all, I think that it's probably<lb/>
human nature to ask why when<lb/>
things don't make sense or when<lb/>
things don't seem right. So, to the<lb/>
beer people, I may trv Bud Dry<lb/>
and still ask why.<lb/>
The truth of the matter is<lb/>
that, drunk or sober, there always<lb/>
seems to be plenty to ask why<lb/>
about. And not only is it impor-<lb/>
tant to ask why, it is more impor-<lb/>
tant to figure out an answer in<lb/>
order to deal with problematic<lb/>
situations. Knowing why is the<lb/>
first step toward change. So pop<lb/>
open a brewski and let's ponder a<lb/>
few of ECU's mysteries.<lb/>
Why is the phone always<lb/>
busy at the Financial Aid office?<lb/>
My theory is that it is really off of<lb/>
the hook. I even dreamed one night<lb/>
(you can only imagine how many<lb/>
times I had tried to call there dur-<lb/>
ing the day) that 1 walked into the<lb/>
office, leaned over the counter and<lb/>
saw for myself that the receiver<lb/>
was hanging from the<lb/>
receptionist's desk. But to give the<lb/>
Financial Aid folks their due, they<lb/>
have always been very nice to me.<lb/>
I haven't seen my loan yet, but<lb/>
that's beside the point.<lb/>
Why is this campus being<lb/>
covered with concrete and as-<lb/>
phalt? I think that it has some-<lb/>
thing to do with those aggressive<lb/>
squirrels that live on the mall and<lb/>
shamelessly beg for scraps of my<lb/>
lunch. The administration has de-<lb/>
cided that since the squirrels aren't<lb/>
paying fees, buying books or pur-<lb/>
chasing parking stickers, grass and<lb/>
trees should be turned into more<lb/>
useful things like rec centers. (You<lb/>
should see those parking ticket<lb/>
people try to ticket the squirrels<lb/>
for munching acorns in staff<lb/>
spaces?it's scarv. No one ben-<lb/>
efits.)<lb/>
Why do I think that I've seen<lb/>
squirrels being ticketed? Because<lb/>
I'm not feeling well. I think that<lb/>
I'm running a fever but I don't<lb/>
own a thermometer so I can't<lb/>
check. Here's why I think that I'm<lb/>
sick: germs float around in Gen-<lb/>
eral Classroom Building?where<lb/>
I spend about 40 hours a week?<lb/>
because the ventilation system<lb/>
doesn't work properly. The win-<lb/>
dows don't open. The same air<lb/>
that was in GCB when it was first<lb/>
built is probably still there now.<lb/>
Does the phrase "sick building"<lb/>
mean anything to you?<lb/>
I'd take a Tylenol but I'm<lb/>
out. Could I bum a buck so that I<lb/>
can buv some from Student<lb/>
Health?"<lb/>
I'll end by asking: why don't<lb/>
things change if there is so much<lb/>
obvious dissatisfaction with the<lb/>
wav things are? Let's face it, we,<lb/>
as a student body, are a very tran-<lb/>
sitory and not-at-all unified en-<lb/>
tity. Students tend to exist on a<lb/>
college campus for a while before<lb/>
they even become aware that thev<lb/>
are the victims of someone else's<lb/>
political agenda.<lb/>
Usually by the time we real-<lb/>
ize that things smell fishy, we're<lb/>
about ready to graduate. In theory<lb/>
at least, those of you that have<lb/>
beenhereforsix yea rsorsoshould<lb/>
be pretty ticked off by now. Or<lb/>
maybe you've gotten the hang of<lb/>
the "drink, don't think" policy. I<lb/>
used to think that it was ridicu-<lb/>
lous that it took students so long<lb/>
to graduate but now I think that<lb/>
maybe we should hang out until<lb/>
the rec center opens since we'll be<lb/>
paying for it anyway. After all,<lb/>
1995 is just around the corner.<lb/>
Or maybe the squirrels will<lb/>
form a unified front and fight for<lb/>
their rightsI'm delirious. Time<lb/>
for a Tylenol.<lb/>

Letters to the Editor<lb/>
Women play large part in their own oppression<lb/>
To the Editor:<lb/>
Amen to Laura<lb/>
Wright's editorial about pag-<lb/>
eants and the roles women<lb/>
plav in them. It's about time<lb/>
that women realize the part<lb/>
thev plav in their own op-<lb/>
pression. We'll continue to<lb/>
be exploited in pageants, as<lb/>
topless dancers, prostitutes,<lb/>
in music videos, etc etc.<lb/>
Women, realize that we must<lb/>
take a stand and prove to the<lb/>
world that our brains work<lb/>
just as well as our bodies.<lb/>
Women that fall within<lb/>
a low economic status may<lb/>
feel the only roads open to<lb/>
them are prostitution or top-<lb/>
less dancing. Understand<lb/>
that you can afford a college<lb/>
education with government<lb/>
assistance. Nobody adver-<lb/>
tises all of the financial help<lb/>
you can get. But nobody's<lb/>
stopping you from search-<lb/>
ing for the answers yourself.<lb/>
I'm a single parent and<lb/>
full-time ECU student. No-<lb/>
body knows better than I that<lb/>
Clinton is dying to put me<lb/>
through school so that I can<lb/>
get off of public assistance<lb/>
and can become financially<lb/>
independent.<lb/>
Unfortunately, women<lb/>
will probably never be paid<lb/>
millions to play football.<lb/>
However, we can go to col-<lb/>
lege and get a diploma,<lb/>
which is a woman's best de-<lb/>
fense against poverty and<lb/>
the discrimir ation and ha-<lb/>
rassment tnat come along<lb/>
with it.<lb/>

Insecurity sighted as cause of "Pageant" article<lb/>
To the Editor:<lb/>
I'm not positive, but I<lb/>
think maybe the author of the<lb/>
articleon "PageantGirls"may<lb/>
be just a little insecure about<lb/>
herself to be attacking other<lb/>
people the way she did.<lb/>
Whatever the case, she<lb/>
definitely did not know what<lb/>
she was talking about nor did<lb/>
she get her facts straight. First<lb/>
of all, she mentioned two pag-<lb/>
eants, the Miss USA Pageants<lb/>
and the Miss America Pag-<lb/>
eants. They are two different<lb/>
pageants (I bet she didn't even<lb/>
know that). I am only person-<lb/>
ally familiar with the Miss<lb/>
America system, so I will fo-<lb/>
cus on that.<lb/>
The Miss America Schol-<lb/>
arship Program is a program<lb/>
which awards millions of dol-<lb/>
lars of scholarship money to<lb/>
voung women every year.<lb/>
Four areas of competition are<lb/>
judged: Talent, which counts<lb/>
for 40 of the total judging,<lb/>
Interviewing, 30, Evening<lb/>
Gown and Swimsuit, both<lb/>
15 respectively. The partici-<lb/>
pants must also be highly in-<lb/>
volved in community service<lb/>
and a platform issue aimed at<lb/>
improving society. Some will<lb/>
tackle (to use another football<lb/>
analogy) domestic violence,<lb/>
teen pregnancy, illiteracy,<lb/>
drug abuse, and the list goes<lb/>
on.<lb/>
Leanza Cornett, Miss<lb/>
America of this past year, trav-<lb/>
eled all over the nation to<lb/>
speak about AIDS education.<lb/>
She touched the lives of many<lb/>
people. Now if you want to<lb/>
call her a beauty queen, I'll<lb/>
agree. But I call it inner beauty.<lb/>
1 know that the actions<lb/>
of a few can hurt the whole<lb/>
group, but your generaliza-<lb/>
tions of "Pageant Girls" are<lb/>
way off base, and your com-<lb/>
parison of them to prostitutes<lb/>
is not only inaccurate but very<lb/>
rude. I am appalled that such<lb/>
a story, with such downgrad-<lb/>
ing comments, was even pub-<lb/>
lished by a staff person. What<lb/>
are you, The East Enquirer?<lb/>
ECU is full of intelligent,<lb/>
motivated, beautiful and de-<lb/>
termined young women.<lb/>
Many of these women have<lb/>
already been, will be, or are<lb/>
currently involved in the Miss<lb/>
North Carolina Scholarship<lb/>
Program. Maybe next time,<lb/>
you should get the facts from<lb/>
the source before you write<lb/>
such an article.<lb/>
So whenever vou are<lb/>
ready for an intelligent, infor-<lb/>
mative, and factual conversa-<lb/>
tion, give me a call.<lb/>

By T. Scott Batchelor<lb/>
Health plan<lb/>
presented on<lb/>
emotional level<lb/>
It seems, according to President Clinton<lb/>
and his nattering nabobs of negativism, that<lb/>
we are in the midst of yet another national<lb/>
crisis. One wonders how we ever got along<lb/>
without the president to identify these fester-<lb/>
ing problems in our society. The crisis du jour<lb/>
concerns health care in this country, an issue<lb/>
Clinton eloquently defined and prescribed a<lb/>
cure for in his speech to Congress last week.<lb/>
Clinton acknowledged that the United<lb/>
States health care system, aside from being<lb/>
"costliest and most wasteful system on the<lb/>
face of the earth is the best in the world. He<lb/>
pulled heart strings (the purse strings come<lb/>
later) with the story of an unfortunate busi-<lb/>
nessman who has seen his health care pre-<lb/>
mium "skyrocket" over the last several years.<lb/>
"And last year Clinton said, "he painfully<lb/>
discovered he could no longer afford to pro-<lb/>
vide coverage for all his workers, because his<lb/>
insurance company told him that two of his<lb/>
workers had become high risks because of<lb/>
their advanced age<lb/>
Laying the groundwork for this kind of<lb/>
democracy, one network prefaced its broad-<lb/>
cast of the president's speech with a man who<lb/>
said his wife had advanced arthritis requir-<lb/>
ing expensive medical treatments, but com-<lb/>
plained that insurance for her is either non-<lb/>
existent or cost prohibitive.<lb/>
Both of these anecdotes work on an<lb/>
emotional level to advance the argument for<lb/>
socializing our health care system; under the<lb/>
scrutiny of logic, however, they both crumble.<lb/>
When a person purchases health insur-<lb/>
ance, or any kind of insurance for that ma tter,<lb/>
he is insuring against future loss. The risk of<lb/>
this loss is computed by actuaries working<lb/>
for insurance companies. Premiums are set<lb/>
according to the level of risk involved. The<lb/>
Academic American Encyclopedia says "the<lb/>
premium charged on the risk must be low<lb/>
enough to attract a sufficient number of in-<lb/>
sured people, vet high enough to support the<lb/>
numbers of probable losses For this reason,<lb/>
very logically, when the risk of loss increases?<lb/>
for example, with certain types of dangerous<lb/>
occupations, lifestyles and, yes, even in-<lb/>
creased age?premiums can sometimes go<lb/>
up. Looking at it this way, it seems ludicrous<lb/>
for a person with a pre-existing, costly health<lb/>
problem to rebuke the insurance industry for<lb/>
refusing to insure him. This person doesn't<lb/>
want insurance; he wants charity.<lb/>
Trying to purchase health insurance<lb/>
after you've become sick or injured is like<lb/>
trying to buy collision insurance on your car<lb/>
after you've run into a tree. Or, taken to its<lb/>
logical (and absurd) conclusion, it's like at-<lb/>
tempting to ta ke out a life insurance policy on<lb/>
your dead spouse.<lb/>
If risk elements didn't play a part in<lb/>
setting insurance premiums or in deciding<lb/>
who can reasonably be insured, the president<lb/>
wouldn't be so bent on the idea of partially<lb/>
funding the new system with a huge tax on<lb/>
cigarettes. However, if the president is going<lb/>
to target items that are linked to disease, then<lb/>
we can look forward to increased prices on a<lb/>
wide range of items. Big Macs, for example.<lb/>
Since heart disease is the number one killer in<lb/>
the country today, and since high-fat. high<lb/>
cholesterol diets are linked to heart disease,<lb/>
then we should see a special tax on<lb/>
McDonald's.Burger King, KFC, Parker's Bar-<lb/>
becue, Cubbie's the list goes on and on.<lb/>

explores dim world<lb/>
By Joe Horst<lb/>
Staff Writer<lb/>
In 1950, a musical debuted in<lb/>
New York City and blew the minds<lb/>
of theater-goers everywhere. Ithad<lb/>
everything?a great story, catchv<lb/>
show runes and a cast of memorable<lb/>
and exciting characters. Fort)' years<lb/>
later, Frank Loesser and Damon<lb/>
Runyon's smash success graces the<lb/>
stage here at East Carolina.<lb/>
"Guys and Dolls in director<lb/>
John Shearin's words, is "one of the<lb/>
best musicals ever written. This is<lb/>
one of my top favorite musicals, in<lb/>
the top two or three. It offers every-<lb/>
thing you 'd ever want?grea t score,<lb/>
great tunes, delightful characters<lb/>
and a perfect story that carries all of<lb/>
this along<lb/>
Shearin's notalone in his praise<lb/>
of this musical that still packs crowds<lb/>
in wherever it plays. Perhaps the<lb/>
only true way to do this show jus-<lb/>
tice is toquote an excerpt from Time<lb/>
magazine:<lb/>
"No American musical ever<lb/>
had a better book or funnier and<lb/>
more truthful lyrics. And few had<lb/>
so many catchv, jubilant tunes in<lb/>
one score. Only a handful have<lb/>
mined a literary vein as rich as<lb/>
Damon Runyon's wry stories that<lb/>
transmuted thugs into thinkers, and<lb/>
louts into Lochinvars  'Guys and<lb/>
Dolls' is a fable that romanticizes<lb/>
hoods and hustlers, touts and<lb/>
troublemakers into cuddlesome<lb/>
comicdelights. It rums mean streets,<lb/>
back alleys and even subway tun-<lb/>
nels into<lb/>

When asked the difference be-<lb/>
tween a musical and a "straight<lb/>
play, Shearin commented that a<lb/>
musical requires "a tremendous bal-<lb/>
ancingact of rehearsal timebetween<lb/>
dance, music and the book. The<lb/>
logistical problems is where it's re-<lb/>
ally challenging.<lb/>

Striking Distance' casts ray of shame<lb/>
By Ike Shibley<lb/>

Assistant Lifestyle Editor<lb/>
Staff Writer<lb/>
The first 50 pages of Jeff<lb/>
Putnam's Litest m nel, Bottoms Up.<lb/>
would be a hying experience for<lb/>
any self-respecting female reader.<lb/>
Every five pages or so, I had to<lb/>
suppress the urge toslam the book<lb/>
shut and throw it across the room.<lb/>
 ou see, the novel's protago-<lb/>
nist, Gordon Bancroft, an opera<lb/>
singer fumed raging alcoholic, is<lb/>
presented asa self-serving lout who<lb/>
exploits and degrades women in<lb/>
order to sustain his addiction. And<lb/>
thataddiction ishuge. This guy can<lb/>
drink like nobody's business?hide<lb/>
thecoughmedicineifairdoncomes<lb/>
over for dinner?yet he can still<lb/>
seduce anything with breasts be-<lb/>
cause he looks like a movie star<lb/>
athlete. Women love him and he<lb/>
could care less as long as they pro-<lb/>
vide wine in return for his sexual<lb/>
expertise. I,onfheotherhand,hated<lb/>
him. At first, rhatis.<lb/>
Bancroftsleepson a mattress in<lb/>
his friend Hilliard'saparfmentand<lb/>
he latches on to Alice, a divorced<lb/>
woman with a young son, who<lb/>
lives upstairs. Gordon assumes that<lb/>
she is searching for a husband and<lb/>
he plays upon this "need" in the<lb/>
hopes that she will feed and care for<lb/>
him. Alice is only one of seven other<lb/>
useful females.<lb/>
.And Gordon drinks. He goes<lb/>
to work drunk, drinks on breaks<lb/>
and frits tosed ucea blind co-worker<lb/>
becauseheb. s" I could stare at her<lb/>
all I wanted hancroft goes from<lb/>
job b i job, blowing all of his money<lb/>
onalcoholandovsterslof all things).<lb/>
Finally, however, he hits rock-bot-<lb/>
tom and decides to stop drinking.<lb/>
At this point, Gordon Bancroft<lb/>
shows the reader that, yes, he too is<lb/>
a human being. After Bancroft real-<lb/>
izes that he is unable to continue at<lb/>
his present rateof intake, he admits<lb/>
thathistreatmentof the people that<lb/>
care about him is deplorable. The<lb/>
novel proceeds beyond the light-<lb/>
hearted raunchy antics of a rollick-<lb/>
ing lush into Bancroft's genuine<lb/>
struggle to stay dry and to find<lb/>
some meaning in a world of sobri-<lb/>
ety.<lb/>
f It is desperately afraid that<lb/>
existence is meaningless without<lb/>
alcohol. With booze, he has some-<lb/>
thing in which to believe. He says,<lb/>
even though he feels completely<lb/>
hollow, "thealcoholsloshesaround<lb/>
and it sounds like an idea<lb/>
The man that struggles be-<lb/>
tiveenplasteredoblivionand mean-<lb/>
ingJesssobrietyis transformed from<lb/>
the complete moochjerk that ex-<lb/>
ists at the beginning of the novel<lb/>
intoa vulnerableand atfimes lonely-<lb/>
shell of his former "fun- loving"<lb/>
self. Itis possible to care about him,<lb/>
it is possible to forgive him. It is'<lb/>
even possible to wish him luck in<lb/>
finding meaning in a world with-<lb/>
out drink.<lb/>

After seemgwhatTfeFHfwdidfor Chicago<lb/>
1 was hoping that Striking Distance, the new film<lb/>
- starring Bruce Willis, might do the same for Pitts-<lb/>
burgh. Rowdy Herrington, the film's director, comes<lb/>
from Pittsburgh just as 77k Fugitive's Andrew Davis<lb/>
comes from Chicago. Unlike Davis, Herrington con-<lb/>
veys no artistic affection for his hometown<lb/>
Herrington uses Pittsburgh the way a businessman<lb/>
would use a prostitute-he extracts the desired<lb/>
thrill, caring little about the city.<lb/>
The story Herrington tells could have occurred<lb/>
in any city. This director utilizes none of the special<lb/>
attributes of Pittsburgh and leaves the viewer feel-<lb/>
ing that Herrington has somehow cheapened his<lb/>
hometown by misusing it so badly. The story in<lb/>
Striking Distance takes place entirely in the Steel<lb/>
City, but more of the film looks like it was shot on a<lb/>
studio lot than on location.<lb/>
Herrington not only embarrasses the city of<lb/>
Pittsburgh, he also embarrasses the world of cin-<lb/>
ema. To think that The Fugitive and Striking Distance<lb/>
both fit into the action genre d isconcerts one's better<lb/>
sensibilities. The films are no more alike than Duck<lb/>
Soup and Forty's, the former being a masterpiece<lb/>
and the latter a bastardization of an entire genre<lb/>
Striking Distance concerns a Pittsburgh police-<lb/>
man named Tom Hardy (Bruce Willis) who testifies<lb/>
against hisPartner,JimmyDetillo(RobertPastorelli<lb/>
better known as Murphy Brown's painter, Eldinj<lb/>
after Jimmv brutally beats a suspect. Hardy be-<lb/>

Not once does anyone on the force<lb/>
seem to consider that Hardy probably<lb/>
made an extremely courageous decision<lb/>
by telling the truth. Only Hardy's father<lb/>
(thesmall role?and theonly one played<lb/>
with any credibility?is filled by John<lb/>
Ma honey) believes that his son did the<lb/>
correct thing. Hardy Sr. tells his son the<lb/>
motto that he lives by, and the one used<lb/>
on the father's tombstone when he dies<lb/>
in the first five minutes of the film:<lb/>

Bandwagon of bands showcased at O'Rocks<lb/>
By Daniel Willis<lb/>
See BOTTOMS page 7<lb/>
Staff Writer<lb/>
An interesting musical combi-<lb/>
nation was featured atO'RocksSat-<lb/>
urday night. Picasso Trigger, Gee-<lb/>
zer Lake and Robot played minia-<lb/>
ture sets.<lb/>
Robot opened theshowat 11:40.<lb/>
The crowd was just settling in at the<lb/>
time. Enthusiasm among members<lb/>
of the audience was just starting to<lb/>
increase. On the wall behind the<lb/>
band a film was shown.<lb/>
I found myself staring at the<lb/>
different scenes. It made me won-<lb/>
der if people were paying more at-<lb/>
tention to the film or to the music. A<lb/>
lot of the music seemed to narrate<lb/>
certain parts of the film.<lb/>
11 was really hard to distinguish<lb/>
one song from another. Their music<lb/>
was very fast, and they fed off of<lb/>
distortion. Some of the music was<lb/>
kind of disturbing when it wascom-<lb/>
bined with the film scenes. Robot<lb/>
played for, at most, 30 minutes.<lb/>
The only real complaint that<lb/>
can be voiced about the show is that<lb/>
none of the bands played extended<lb/>
n , ?? ??ut uk uanospjayea extended sions w<lb/>
Don't Run My Life: Campus Recreation Center<lb/>
sets. The show started too late, and<lb/>
the breaks between bands lasted an<lb/>
av erageof 30minutesapiece. In fact,<lb/>
between the three bands, only two<lb/>
hours of music was played.<lb/>
Geezer Lake, a band from<lb/>
Greensboro, started playingatabout<lb/>
12:30. They played longer than the<lb/>
other two bands.<lb/>
Theircrowdpresencewasvery<lb/>
evident. The lead singer and saxo-<lb/>
phonist were nestled back into the<lb/>
corner of the stage. Most of their<lb/>
songs consisted of drawn-out ses-<lb/>
sions which gradually built up in<lb/>
intensity. But then, when a song<lb/>
would build up to a climax, the<lb/>
band would pull back. Then they'd<lb/>
break into a session that almost<lb/>
seemed like jazz. In doing this,<lb/>
they reflected a lot of variety and<lb/>
covered a wide range of musical<lb/>
taste.<lb/>
AfterGeezer Lake, everybody<lb/>
knew who was coming up next.<lb/>
Picasso Trigger, a band out of<lb/>
Chapel Hill, has a reputation for<lb/>
putting on very enthusiastic per-<lb/>

AndlthinkECUhasfmallycome<lb/>

don't know about you, but an extra<lb/>
S25 tacked on our tuition per semes-<lb/>

costs what? 18million.Hmm,whata<lb/>
swell plan.<lb/>
That, m friends, my babies, is a<lb/>
thinking man's plan. And do vou<lb/>
know why I like it? Because I don't<lb/>
think it matters that our library leaks<lb/>
and it's rundown and vou can't ever<lb/>
find books and the on-line system is,<lb/>
well, unique (but I hear they 're work-<lb/>
ing on it). And the heck" with the<lb/>
hundreds of parking spaces this rec<lb/>
center is going to cost us, dammit' we<lb/>
need a place to play!<lb/>
I trust that my point is taken. I've<lb/>
got a sneaking suspicion that IX I<lb/>
might not really be a college, but a<lb/>
business. I mean, how will a rec cen-<lb/>

And one more tiling. A truestory<lb/>
from me to you. It's no secret I run<lb/>
with the intellectual crowd, so let me<lb/>
tell you what happened to a good<lb/>
buddy o' mine in the EDepart-<lb/>
ment. Well, he needed books for his<lb/>
students to read. But he didn't know<lb/>
which books until the semester be-<lb/>
gan.So,inordertoexpedite things for<lb/>
his students and hisself, he ordered<lb/>
the books through a kxral indepen-<lb/>
dent outlet where the books would<lb/>
be in in about three or four days. No<lb/>
problem.<lb/>
Now, what did our valiant hero<lb/>
do wrong? He went outside the uni-<lb/>
versity! He didn't bow down to that<lb/>
paragonofcapitalistavarice,theECU<lb/>

a grislv string of murders that<lb/>
Hardv was investigating before<lb/>

. nces in this film<lb/>
build d heights. Early in<lb/>
lm, Jimmy, Hardy's ex-part-<lb/>
ner, prepares to commit suicide<lb/>
by jumping off a bridge. Every-<lb/>
one manages to show up at the<lb/>
bridge?you would think that<lb/>
Jimmy sent invitations. Jimmy's<lb/>
dad (Dennis Farina), a cop, is there<lb/>
as is Jimmy's brother Danny<lb/>
(Tommy Seizmore), another cop.<lb/>
Jimmv's dad also happens to be<lb/>
Hardy's uncle, because, the best 1<lb/>
could figure, almost everyone on<lb/>
the Pittsburgh police force is re-<lb/>
lated. Of course Hardy also shows<lb/>
up at the suicide scene and tries to<lb/>
help Jimmy. But Jimmyjumps any-<lb/>
way.<lb/>
To heighten the tension,<lb/>
Herrington shoots the scene in the<lb/>
rain to accentuate the dreariness<lb/>
that surrounds Hardy. The rain<lb/>
only makes an already flimsy film<lb/>
soggy.<lb/>
The ending perfectly fits this<lb/>
contrived, cliche-filed, overblown,<lb/>
idiotic film. When the confronta-<lb/>
tion occurs between Hardy and<lb/>
the murderer, the killer almost dies<lb/>
several times and then miracu-<lb/>
lously arises again to terrorize<lb/>
Hardy. The killer gets shot, barely<lb/>
Continued from page 6<lb/>
avoids crashing his boat into a<lb/>
bridge piling, barely avoids get-<lb/>
ting hit by a train, barely avoids<lb/>
drowning in a ridiculous under-<lb/>
water battle, and finally gets elec-<lb/>
trocuted.<lb/>
This climactic fight drags on<lb/>
forever as Hardy and the killer<lb/>
go from a cabin, to a boat, to a<lb/>
factory and to the bottom of the<lb/>
river.<lb/>
Striking Distance stinks. The<lb/>
film is mired with viciously use-<lb/>
less violence and unusually bad<lb/>
taste. This movie comes nowhere<lb/>
near striking distance of being a<lb/>
good film.<lb/>
On a scale of one to 10, Strik-<lb/>

SEATTLE ? ECU'S best de-<lb/>
fensive performance in two years<lb/>
was squandered by their worst of-<lb/>
fensive output since 1980 in a 35-0<lb/>
loss to Washington.<lb/>
The Pirates' 103 total yards was<lb/>
their lowest output since totaling<lb/>
102 against Florida State 10 years<lb/>
ago.<lb/>
It was also 96 percent passing.<lb/>
Washington's "Purple Reign" de-<lb/>
fense held ECU to a school record-<lb/>
low of four yards rushing, prompt-<lb/>
ing ECU head coach Steve Logan to<lb/>
call the Huskies' defense the best<lb/>
he's seen since joining the Pirate<lb/>
coaching staff. The loss also ended<lb/>
a 55-game scoring streak dating<lb/>
back toSept. 17,1988,againstSouth<lb/>
Carolina.<lb/>
Washington's offense, spear-<lb/>
headed by running back Napoleon<lb/>
Kaufman's 142-yards rushing, to-<lb/>
taled 288 net yards. ECU had not<lb/>
held an opponent to under 300<lb/>
yards since Southern Miss totaled<lb/>
196 on Nov. 9,1991.<lb/>
Pirate ruggers win<lb/>
second straight<lb/>
By W.W.Ellis<lb/>
Staff Writer<lb/>
The Pirate Rugby team con-<lb/>
tinued its winning ways with a<lb/>
difficult 19-0 win over the UNC-<lb/>
Wilmington Seahawks. For the<lb/>
fourth straight game the Pirates<lb/>
have shut down their opposition,<lb/>
but this match was not as easy as<lb/>
the score indicates.<lb/>
Bolstered by new coaches and<lb/>
several British ex-patriots, the<lb/>
Seahawks threatened the Pirate<lb/>
goal line constantly. When an<lb/>
early Pirate score was nullified,<lb/>
the Seahawks rallied and stormed<lb/>
back. Again, as they had against<lb/>
NC State and Carolina, the ECU<lb/>
ruggers bent, but did not break.<lb/>
Eventually, the Pirates wore<lb/>
down their smaller opponents<lb/>
and began to dominate the game.<lb/>
"The ECU backs tackled us<lb/>
in back of the gain line UNC-W<lb/>
coach JackEvanssaid. "Thentheir<lb/>
forwards stripped the ball and<lb/>
started to roll. We did not react as<lb/>
quickly as they did<lb/>
The first Pirate score came<lb/>
when Kevin Loftus found a seam<lb/>
through the Wilmington defense.<lb/>
His try was converted bv Richard<lb/>
"Opie" Moss. Later, Jay Keller<lb/>
thundered across for a second try<lb/>
which Moss converted. Up 14-6,<lb/>
the Pirates had the game well in<lb/>
hand, but the Seahawks did not<lb/>
fade away.<lb/>
The second half proved more<lb/>
of the same as the Pirates turned<lb/>
away threats to their linebut could<lb/>
not finish off the opposition. Af-<lb/>
ter a series of tackles and short<lb/>
kicks, wing Chris Patterson<lb/>
charged downa Wilmington kick<lb/>
and had it bounce into his hands<lb/>
with the way clear to the goal line.<lb/>
Patterson's try gave the Pirates<lb/>
their final margin of victory.<lb/>
As part of their new squad<lb/>
concept, five players moved up<lb/>
and performed crediblv for the<lb/>
first XV. Mark Fairchild and Jor-<lb/>
dan Ashburn had good days at<lb/>
flanker while Chris Patterson got<lb/>
his first A side try. On the wing,<lb/>
Todd Ward covered well and<lb/>
came close to scoring on several<lb/>
long kick and chase moves.<lb/>
After the NC State game,<lb/>
some ietdown was expected.<lb/>
UNC-W does not have the man-<lb/>
power of a State or Duke, but the<lb/>
match was a crucial league game<lb/>
to determine the eastern slot for<lb/>
the Carolina championship.<lb/>
"We were flat said Keller.<lb/>
"There will be some changes<lb/>
made for the Duke game. The<lb/>
backs have to make the ball avail-<lb/>
able. The forwards can't run all<lb/>
the way across the field to see a<lb/>
back die with the ball<lb/>
"It was not a spectacular<lb/>
win ECU head coach Larry<lb/>
Babits said. "We had problems<lb/>
on offense but the defense worked<lb/>
well again. I'm not completely<lb/>
certain how we manage to shut<lb/>
down the opposition, but we al-<lb/>
ways try to pressure them. The<lb/>
guys know they have to win to<lb/>
stay in the running for the cham-<lb/>
pionship . The parts are all in place;<lb/>
we just need to fine tune them<lb/>
The Huskies 35 points do<lb/>
not truly reflect the defensive<lb/>

Richards shines as soph<lb/>
Team wins conference opener<lb/>
By Brad Oidham<lb/>
Staff Writer<lb/>
If there is one thing fha t ma tters to sophomore<lb/>
Melanie Richards, it's taking the East Carolina<lb/>
women's volleyball team to a new level. The task<lb/>
is not necessarily an easy one, considering the<lb/>
team's 1-11 record, but make no matter of that for<lb/>
now. Because as long as the ball is in Melanie's<lb/>
court, the changes will come.<lb/>
The role of being a leader is not new to Melanie<lb/>
(who prefers to be called "Mel") because she has<lb/>
been there before. While growing up in West<lb/>
Henrietta, New York, she lettered in two sports,<lb/>
playing both soccer and volleyball. It was Mel who<lb/>
led her high school volleyball squad to a 21-0<lb/>
record and the county championship title her se-<lb/>
nior year.<lb/>
But it was not always an easy ride for her. She<lb/>
originally started playing volleyball in seventh<lb/>
grade gym class, and found an interest in the game<lb/>
from her gym teacher, who was coaching the<lb/>
school's team. She tried out for the school team<lb/>
that season, but was cut. Practice and hard work<lb/>
paid off during the try-outs from that season to the<lb/>
next. Mel made the team the following season,<lb/>
went on to play all four years in high school and<lb/>
has finally ended up here at East Carolina, under<lb/>
head coach of the volleyball team, Martha<lb/>
McCaskill.<lb/>
Mel's reasons for choosing ECU were simple.<lb/>
First of all, it was located in the South, and second,<lb/>
she knew that she could make an impact on the<lb/>
volleyball program. It was always her own desire<lb/>
that led to her success, and she felt tha t this was the<lb/>
place for her.<lb/>
Mel came into this season off an impressive<lb/>
first year in which she won the ECU Rookie of the<lb/>
Year a ward for playing outside hitter for the team.<lb/>
Coach McCaskill assigned her the responsibility of<lb/>
co-captain this season along with junior Sarah<lb/>
Laurent. Individual stats are not of importance to<lb/>
Mel, however, because she chooses to focus on<lb/>
team goals. One of these goals is to play better as a<lb/>
team than they did last season. She feels that the<lb/>
team gets along better this season off of the court,<lb/>
probablv because of the similarity in age amongst<lb/>
Melanie Richards<lb/>
the players, who consist of mainly freshmen and sopho-<lb/>
mores. This, in turn, produces better chemistry and<lb/>
knowledge of each other's game on the court. Another<lb/>
goal for Mel and her teammates is to win the Colonial<lb/>
ConferencCVChampionship. She feels that every team<lb/>
on their schedule is beatable. Mel knows that the talent is<lb/>
there, but feels that the team needs to find a way to make<lb/>
it click.<lb/>
Mel wants to pursue a career in child development.<lb/>
"I figure that since I love kids, and the fact that there will<lb/>
always be kids around, there will always be jobs some-<lb/>
where out there for me But, as of now, the priority is<lb/>
bringing the team back up to a winning record. Mel feels<lb/>
that the students can help the team achieve this goal by<lb/>
coming out to cheer them on. For once Melanie Richards<lb/>
and this young Pirate team become older and better, the<lb/>
future is sure to look brighter.<lb/>
Ladies looking good Women runners miss first-place finish<lb/>
By Chip Hudson<lb/>
Staff Writer<lb/>
The East Carolina women's<lb/>
soccer club began its conference<lb/>
season on Sunday bv defeating<lb/>
Fayettevillle 2-1. The two teams<lb/>
played to a 0-0 tie last season,<lb/>
and both teams were looking for<lb/>
a victory to start the season. ECU<lb/>
was a little slow out of the box,<lb/>
and Fayetteville had a couple of<lb/>
early scoring opportunities that<lb/>
goalkeeper Jaime Pierce turned<lb/>
away.<lb/>
The first score came with 26<lb/>
minutes gone in the first half.<lb/>
Junior forward Jill Metzger<lb/>
headed a Toni DeRose cross into<lb/>
the back of the net to give the<lb/>
Pirates a 1-0 lead. ECU mounted<lb/>
another good attack, but were<lb/>
unable to finish it, and at the half<lb/>
the score remained 1-0.<lb/>
The Pirates began the second<lb/>
half very lethargically, and<lb/>
Fayetteville capitalized on a de-<lb/>
fensive mishap to tie the score at<lb/>
1-1. ECU made a substitution,<lb/>
and the new players' energy was<lb/>
contagious as the Pirates began<lb/>
to get back on track. With just<lb/>
over 10 minutes left in the game,<lb/>
sweeper Jodi Rittenhouse made<lb/>
a quick run, and crossed the ball<lb/>
to Jennie Haines who fired a shot<lb/>
on goal. The shot was denied, but<lb/>
Amy Warren was there to put the<lb/>
rebound awav and put ECU up<lb/>
2-1.<lb/>
For the remaining 10 min-<lb/>
utes, ECU was able to keep the<lb/>
play in Fayetteville's half of the<lb/>
field, largely due to solid plav in<lb/>
the middle of the field from<lb/>
Maureen Corcoran and Kerri<lb/>
Griffiths.<lb/>
"This is a good win for us to<lb/>
start the season ECU coach<lb/>
Doug Silver commented. "I think<lb/>
the league play will be a lot more<lb/>
competitive than it was last year,<lb/>
and I hope that our team is readv<lb/>
to respond to the challenge<lb/>

points out of first place versus<lb/>

together her all time best with a<lb/>
