Today Tomorrow The East Carolinian Vol. 68 No. 58 Circulation 12,000 Greenville, North Carolina Thursday, October 14,1993 ECU ranks in top ten By Stephanie Lassiter Staff Writer Not only is ECU one of the best party schools in the south, it is also one of the best buys in the South. According to U.S. News and World Report, ECU ranks in the top 10 of best buys in the South. The study, published in the Oct. 11 issue, was based on "sticker price To determine what schools were the best sticker price, the magazine ranked the schools academically in their Oct. 4 is- sue. The U.S. News quality rank was divided by the total tuition, fees and room and board for the 1993-94 academic year. The higher the ratio of quality to price, the better the value. To qualify as a top ten in monetary value, the school had to rank near the top of their category in academic quality. Weekend commemorates first win By Warren Sumner Staff Writer Three North Carolina schools were included in the top 10 of the best sticker value schools in the region. They are ECU, Appalachian State Univer- sity, University of North Caro- lina at Asheville. The best value sticker price rank measures the cost of tu- ition, fees and room and board while considering the academic value. Several other North Caro- lina schools ranked as best val- ues in other categories. Duke University and UNC-Chapel Hill were in the top 25 "dis- counted price best value" na- tional universities. N.C. State and UNC-Chapel Hill were among the top 25 "sticker price best value" national universi- ties. The discounted price best value takes into consideration tuition price, room and board, fees, books and estimated per- sonal expenses. Then, the aver- age of its need-based grants in aid are subtracted from the costs. According to U.S. News and World Report, as many as three out of four freshmen at some schools receive financial aid. Therefore, the discounted price is becoming very relevant. Based on U.S. News and World Report's figures, the av- erage ECU student spends 59,564 per academic year on tuition, fees and room and board. ASU ranked slightly higher at $10,064. Universities in the West ranked the highest, or most expensive. Students at Santa Clara University in Cali- fornia were estimated to spend $18,783 per academic year on tuition, fees and room and board. The cheapest schools, listed, in the "sticker price best value" category, were found in the south. 28 Pages HELP Well, it's mid- semester guys and with our wonderfully equipped library, expect to have to ask for lots of help.

The ECU Homecoming Committee works diligently ev- ery year to make sure that the time-honored traditions sur- rounding the ceremony do not go unheeded. Faced with the pros- pect of heightened media cover- age and subsequent greater vis- ibility, the members of this group must weigh the factors of holding onto these traditions while they See TRADITIONS page 6 Nurse grad named top By Lisa Dawson Staff Write Robin Morreale, a staff nurse in the Coronary intensive care unit at Pitt County Memorial Hospital, has been named as one of 100 out- standing nurses from more than 63,800 registered nurses in North Carolina.

By Maureen Rich Assistant News Editor Who does more partying, ECU students or ECU alumni? After Homecoming weekend, many former students will un- doubtedly be found recuperating from a hectic weekend of golfing, tennis, dancing, eating, drinking and celebrating. Not necessarily in that order, of course. Meanwhile, current stu- dents will probably enjoy only the latter of these activities. Another difference between the celebrating that takes place during Homecoming is that all alumni parties are sponsored by ECU, while current students are expected to maintain the tradi- tional " Bring Your Own motif. ECU offers alumni many opportunities to reunite as well as many chances to have a grea t time while they visit the ECU commu- nity. "Homecoming is always an exciting and festive time on the ECU campus said Donald Y. Leggett, associate vice chancellor for alumni relations. "We look forward to having large numbers of alumni return to the campus, so we can reacquaint them with the University, as well as express our thanks for their support of ECU Before the Pirates conquer Louisiana Tech, several other face- offs will take place with a little less pressure on the players.

After the debacle in Somalia, the U.S. administration is shy- ing away from multilateral ac- tion. Instead of entertaining the idea of GIs in blue berets in hot spots, the new U.S. new motto for U.N. peacekeeping seems borrowed from the Reagan anti- drug slogan: just say no. Senior U.N. officials are deeply worried about the U.S. decision to forgo its earlier com- mitment to disarma- ment in So- malia and to pull all forces out by March 31, whether So- malia is stable or not. They fear it could mean an unravel- ing of U.N. peacekeep- ing and dis- mhmmhmmm courage other nations from con- tributing troops in Somalia and elsewhere. The U.S. delay Monday in deploying a non-combat mis- sion in Haiti was cited by U.N. officials as an example of what they see as U.S. pussyfooting about peacekeeping. U.N. officials are afraid u The United Nations simply cannot become engaged in every one of the world's conflicts. that if the formidable U.S. mili- tary will not venture forth be- cause of possible bloodshed, warlords and bullies worldwide can rejoice and be assured that no credible force will challenge them. After 17 U.S. soldiers died in a furious clash with Somali clan militiamen this month, the Clinton people decided they would pour in 5,000 more troops, focus on reconciliation instead of military action to capture warlord Mohamed F a r r a h Aidid, and clear out by March 31. U.N. officials and peace- n Bill Clinton ???????i keeping planners shuddered. They feared that the entire operation would collapse without the American linchpin, and Soma- lia, a region without a govern- ment, would once again face starvation and chaos. Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali's main aim in go- ing next week to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, is to shore up re- gional support and troop con- tributors so others will take up the slack when the Ameri- cans go home for good. Boutros-Ghali acknowl- edged on Monday that the Americans have no stomach to be "the sheriff of the world" and want to solve their prob- lems at home. France, Ger- many and other nations feel the same way, he said. But he urged them to reconsider. "For the time being, this is the only forum he told reporters. "If member-states do not want to play by them- selves the role of policeman of the world, sheriff of the world, then they must assist the United Nations. Other- wise they will get involved He sought to play down differences with Washington over the goals of the Somalia operation and how it has been managed. U.N. officials un- derline they cannot afford a confrontation with the United States. But they made it clear that the United States, which now criticizes the United Na- tions, had ardently supported every Somalian resolution about disarmament, nation- building and the need to cap- See UN page 7 ECU team to explore civil war shipwrecks Photo courtesy of ECU News Bureau Robin Morreale, a graduate student at ECU and a staff nurse at PCMH was chosen in the top 100 of 63,800 N.C. nurses. its fifth year, honors 100 of North Carolina's registered nurses for their commitment to their profes- sion and for making significant con- tributions to improving the health care services in their communities. In addition to recognizing outstand- ing nurses, this annual event also raises money to support nursing scholarships in North Carolina. By Tammy Carter Staff Writer- "Damn the torpedoes! Go ahead These famous words spo- ken by Admiral David Farragut in the famous Civil War battle of Mobile Bay inspired an underwa- ter survey team from ECU to head to the site of the battle. Five students, two ECU graduates, and team leader, ar- chaeologist Gordon P. Watts, all from the graduate program in Maritime History and Nautical Archaeology, plan to examine three battleships that sank more than a century ago. They left on Oct. 5 and will return around Oct. 31. While in Mobile, the divers will explore and survey three ships; the C.S.S. Gaines, the U.S.S. Philippi and the U.S.S. Tecumseh. The five-student team mem- bers, led by Watts, recently re- turned from practicing mapping and surveying techniques on an 18th century British shipwreck in Bermuda. Their latest expedition will be based at Fort Morgan, a park site near the entrance to Mo- bile Bay. The team will assess the wreck sites for the U.S. Depart- ment of Interior, National Park Service and for the U.S. Navy, funded by a $20,000 grant. The study may improve the way the Park Service manages its battle- field protection program. The Park Service presently protects historic battlefields, but the protection only applies to battle sites on land. According to Gor- don P. Watts, the work performed by the diving team could lead to the protection and management plans for historic nautical battle sites. These sites would include Mobile Bay; Fort Fisher, N.C; and Yorktown, Va. The most famous of the three, the Tecumseh, struck a torpedo or a mine at the beginning of the battle and sank in 25 seconds, killing 93 men. Stunned by the hit, the Union fleet momentarily failed in its progress until Admiral Farragut climbed to the upper deck of the flagship Hartford, lashed himself to the rigging and allegedly yelled the words so many people remem- ber today. Now,most of the Tecumseh's hull is hidden by mud and silt. Jeff Morris, Tim Hastings, Ted Dunlap, and Lex Turner, all ECU students, will note the exposed area and determine the deterioration of the ship, and hopefully feel the spiritofthewarthathelpedmold our country. The Gaines, one of the other two ships to be surveyed by the team, was an armor-clad ship and was one of very few used by the Confederacy. Its com- mander, under the threat of de- feat, ran his vessel aground in an attempt to save the guns. The Philippi, once owned by a Confederate blockade run- ner and named the Ella, was con- verted into a gunboat by the Union forces. The Confederate artillery sank it during the battle. The team's leader, Watts, is one of North Carolina's most experienced underwater ar- chaeologists. He was part of the team that discovered the Lf.S.S. Monitor off North Carolina's coast in the early 1970s. Over the summer, Watts worked with an international research team in France to help excavate the C.S.S. Alabama, a Confederate raider that was sunk in the English Channel by the Lf.S.S. Kearsarge in 1864. ? October 14, 1993 ECU recognizes outstanding alumni Study warns against drinking games Chug-a-lug and other drinking games ore not as harmless as college students maj think, warn two researchers in a recently published study. Nearly 4,000 alcohol-consuming students from 58 American colleges and universities were surveyed about the games they play when drinking. While students who identified themselves as "light" or "moderate" drinkers experienced few alcohol-related problems, those who played a drinking game within the preceding year significant! v increased the probability of negative consequences in 15 of 17drinking-related behaviors, the report said. While the researchers said more emphasis should be placed on drinking games in campus alcohol prevention programs and messages, the messages that stress abstinence from drinking have proved to not be effective among college students. Miami professor fired for sexual harassment Ahigh-profile University of Miami professor from the Gradu- ate School of International Studies (GSIS) was fired for sexual harassment and other charges in late September, following an investigation which began in 1992. Professor Jiri Valenta was terminated by a unanimous vote of the Executive Committee of the UM Board of Trustees after professor Vandulka Kubalkova filed a formal complaint against Valenta for sexual harassment, abuse of power and financial improprieties. The charges were substanti- ated through the testimonies of 53 witnesses over a 15-day period, which generated more than 3,500 pages of transcript. Charges surrounding Valenta's dismissal include physically touching seven women, including grabbing their breasts and buttocks, inviting women to bear his children and threatening retaliation when his advances were rebuffed. Students arrested in prostitution ring Three University of Arizona students were arrested for alleg- edly running a prostitution ring near the campus and employing college-age women, according to the Daily Wildcat. It was undeter- mined whether the women involved in the ring were U A students, the campus newspaper reported. According to police reports, a 19- year-old woman who was employed by Elite Escort Service agreed to have sex for money with an undercover police officer at a hotel near the Tucson International Airport. The arrests took place after police investigated an advertisement reading, "Elite Escort Service i featuring Lauren, Nicky & Victoria. Noon-3 a.m. Large selection.

MTV says it will review 'Beavis and Butthead' MORAINE, Ohio (AP) ? MTV said it will take another look atitsshow "Beavisand Butt-head" after a woman whose 5-year-old son set a fatal house fire, blamed the cartoon for promoting burn- ing as fun. Austin Messner, whose 2- year-old sister died in the fire, watched an episode in which the cartoon characters said fire is fun, said Moraine Fire Chief Harold Sigler. "According to the mother, right after that she caught him playing with ma tches Sigler said. Austin; his mother, Darcy Burk; and her boyfriend, Steve Sears, escaped. His 2-year-old sister, Jessica Matthews, died in the fire Wednes- day. "Beavis and Butt-head" fea- tures two animated teen-agers who comment on rock videos and spend time burning and destroy- ing things. Carole Robinson, a spokes- woman for MTV, said Friday that the cable network would "re-ex- amine issues regarding 'Beavis and Butt-head " "Responsibly programming MTV has always been and will continue to be our top priority she said. Sigler said he wants MTV to eliminate any shows that might encourage playing with fire and would like to see vio- lence on the program reduced. "When you take a child in the formative years and you get these cartoon characters saying it's fun to play with fire this is going to stick in that kid's mind and it's going to be with him for a long time Sigler said. Chapter 7 . EBU hadn't changed much. - As I drove up Case Hill Drive and passed the dorms, I soon found out that the coach was definitely the Tight person to talk to.

The athlet- ics department at EBU had gone to a lot of trouble to make sure that this weekend went well. Too bad I might i have to brew up something I found Lager in the locker loom, surrounded by football hel- mets and dwarfed by a chalkboard filled with X's and O's.

A place where dreams are made and unmade, lives are turned upside down and a drink is a drink. A place where you kept one hand on your wallet and one eye on the guy across the street. Basically, a place where a man can forget his troubles and drown his sorrows for a while. Mick Hammered had sworn never to set foot in the Brewery again. Setting out to find his old friend Al Cohol, Mick finds himself up to his neck j. in the seedy and fermented world of the Brewery. Every Thursday in The East Carolinian, Mick will meet a character who will expose Al in a whole new light. When it's finally over and done with, Mick?and the reader?ivill be faced with one of the most important questions either has ever faced. What place does Al Cohol have in my life?

When he's in their blood at a .02 or .03 level, they start relaxing and become more outgoing. At .05 to .12, they start to lose control and can hurt themselves. Not that they would ever admit that, though Lager shook his head in disgust and con- tinued. "If the level gets as high up as .25, they start losing their coordi- nation.

Marking its 10th inniver- sary, members sent at le.ist 1,000 invitations out with the mail for a gathering in the General Class- room building for a third-floor ex- travaganza, aimed primarily at alumni. That's quite a few stamps to lick?perhaps it pays to maintain only a few close friendships. The Commerce Club, spon- sored by the ECU School of Busi- ness, is the largest and most active professional society on campus, according to Betty Wilson, associ- ate dean of the business program, and is comprised of business graduates, staff and friends of the school.

The club works hard to in- crease student awareness of the club, Wilson said.

Af- ter eight tumultuous days of delib- erations, the jury in the Reginald Denny bearing trial is starting alJ over again without a juror who the others complained couldn't grasp the issues. Superior Court Judge John Ouderkirk removed the juror on Monday after receiving a note about her from the forewoman. The woman "cannot compre- hend anything that we'vebeen try- ing toaccomplish the forewoman wrote. She added: "This has noth- ing to do with her views on issues or her personality. She doesn't use common sense The anonymous, sequestered jury is deciding the fate of two black men accused of attacking Denny, a white truck driver. Deliberations were to resume today. After receiving complaints earlier about a problem juror, the judge on Saturday gave jurors the rest of the weekend to cool off. Damian Williams, 20, and Henry Watson, 29, are charged with attempting to murder Denny in 1992 during the riots that broke out after four white policemen were acquitted in state court in the heat- ing of black motorist Rodney King. The defendants could get life in prison. Meanwhile, the two police- men convicted in federal court of violating King's civil rights, Of- ficer Laurence Powell and Sgt. Stacey Koon, were scheduled to report to prison today to begin their 2 1 2-year sentences. The dismissed juror, who is black, was replaced by a young Asian- American womandrawnby lottery from among the alternates. The jury in the racially vola tile case now consists of three blacks, two Asian-Americans, three whites and four Hispanics. Defense lawyers objected to the juror's removal, which was re- quested by the prosecution, and asked the judge to declare a mis- trial. He refused. . XX-?'?. Welcome Students and Alumni!

We that it was going in the ml we can't be su re exactly the tirt one was ton said that the cer- emony originally was held in the spring But when East Carolina reaching College (ECTC) started competing in football in 1932, the ceremony migrated to the fall. Preston said that this year's cer- emonv is one that should be very important to Pirate football fans. "This year's ceremony marks the 60th anniversary of our foot- ball program's first victory, a 6-0 win over Campbell According to Jeffery Marshall, Assistant director of University Unions, this year's "Live the Magic" theme is one of the best he has seen. "The theme was developed in our steering committee last year Marshall said. "It was sug- gested by Tony Cox, the former director of the Marching Pirates. After the committee sent in all of their ideas, we found that to be the best one Local residents and ECU stu- dents alike will be able to see the Homecoming magic firsthand at many activities which the Univer- sity has planned. This year's pa- rade will be broadcast live on WITN-TV. And according to Preston, the annual Piratefest will be "bigger and better" this year. In an attempt to add a multicultural flair to theevent, the university will feature a "step show" followed by a performance by comedian Derek Fox III, known for his appearance on the hit show "Def Comedy jam Preston said he hopes that these attractions help to start a new tradition at ECU. "There will be a lot of height- ened excitementsurrounding this year's ceremony Preston said.

The nation's largest retailer sold merchandise below cost in an effort to drive competitors out of business, a judge ruled to- day. Chancery Judge David Reynolds ordered Wal-Mart Stores Inc. to stop selling drugs and health and beauty aids be- low cost at its store in Conway. The ruling was in a lawsuit filed by three logical pharma- cies which accused Wal-Mart of "predatory pricing" to drive them out of business. The judge said the local Wal-Mart store violated the state's Unfair Practices Act by advertising and selling pharma- ceuticals and health and beauty aids below cost "for the pur- pose of injuring competitors and destroying competition The suit was brought by Dwayne Goode, owner of American Drugs Inc. of Conway; Jim Hendrickson, owner of Baker Drug Store of Conway; and Tim Benton of Mayflower Family Pharmacy. Reynolds said he based his ruling in part on Wal-Mart's stated pricing policy to "meet or beat the com- petition without regard to cost An appeal to the state Su- preme Court is likely, since the case involves the first test of the Unfair Practices Act. At the trial, company officials said Wal- Mart's pricing policy was de- signed to make a profit, not to injure competitors.

Germany accepts Maastricht Treaty BONN, Germany (AP) ? Germany's highest court ruled today that the Maastricht Treaty on European union doesn't vio- late this country's constitution, clearing the way for implemen- tation of the historic accord. The Constitutional Court said it had struck down legal challenges to the treaty, which already has been ratified by the 12 EC nations' parliaments or voters. Final implementation hinged on the German court's approval. The treaty calls for open- ing a European Monetary Insti- tute on Jan. 1 as the precursor to a Europe-wide central bank, which is to be in place no later than Jan. 1, 1999. The indepen- dent central bank will eventu- ally issue a single currency, re- placing existing national curren- cies. Under the accord, the EC nations will work to forge com- mon foreign, security and even- tually defense policies. The EC will have more powers in education, public health, culture, consumer pro- tection, industry, research and the environment. A negative ruling today would have created a crisis for the EC, which has staked its fu- ture on turning the community into a world power through eco- nomic, political and monetary union. The court said it wants as- surances that Germany's parlia- mentary bodies won't lower substantial powers to European institutions. But reservations expressed by the court won't require EC nations to renegotiate the treaty. The pact, negotiated by EC leaders in December 1991 in the Dutch town of Maastricht, was challenged in the Constitutional Court by a mix of groups, in- cluding both rightists and left- ists. They argued, among other things, that it violates the nation's constitution by trans- ferring too many national pow- ers to EC headquarters in Brus- sels, Belgium. get on the Track to a scholarshf An Air Force ROTC scholarship may get you on the right track to success.

By Alex Ferguson Dental visits: getting to the 'root' of the problem Beavis and Butthead" blamed for death of child, MTV considers re- examining programming belie able. An Ohio mother is actually blaming a cartoon tor the death of her child. A cartoon! You know, those two-dimensional, fantastical, kid-loved characters that made Saturday mornings super-duper great. Well, okay, this is "Beavis and Butthead two deranged, pathetic, clueless teenagers with a pen- chant tor the words "suck" and "shut-up Yep, ivisand Butthead an MTV cartoon that until last u eek 1 had ne er entirely sat through. "Loony Toons" is one thing, but "Beavis and Butthead" is just plain stupid. The situation goes something like this: a 5-year- old boy started a tire that killed his younger sister. This boy's mother is convinced that the idiot cartoon is the cause of the young boy's actions. Now, please understand that every svmpathv is extended to the mother as far as the loss oi her 2-vear-old daughter is concerned, but to take the blame this far is, in fact, loony. The question has to be asked: why is a 5-year-old child allowed to watch MTV in the first place? As a kid, I remember being locked out of my parents' bedroom after school, simply because the cable TV was there and they felt it within my best interests to prohibit me from viewing that new-fangled cable channel called MTV. They cared, and were watching out for my well-being, don't you see? Why on earth would you let a child in his developing, formative years watch a show that very obviously is geared toward a more mature (or immature) audience? And another thing ? this 5-year-old had access to a cigarette lighter, with which he started said fire. This is grave mistake number two. Never leave a lighter or matches somewhere that a child (that is, one not vet readv to decide these things on hisher own) can find it, take it, touch it or see it. Never, never, never! Kids generallv find fire fascinating. And that has nothing to do with "Beavis and Butthead Fire has been cool even before the word "cool" was used in everyday speech to indicate the acceptance of some- thing. To kids, fire is something pretty and scary and dangerous, all rolled into one. Who's going to deny that? Kids tend to like the dangerous, walk-the-line stuff. Hell, who are we kidding, adults are just as fascinated with fire and danger as kids are! But we're not going to go out and randomly set fire to things because we're adults and we don't do things like that! At least, we're not supposed to O.K obviously this Ohio mother loves her son and does the best she can at raising him, but she related to firefighters on the scene that she was so concerned with his behavior since he started watch- ing the show that she took the boy's bedroojn door off the hinges in order to watch him more closely. Hello! lady, if you can carry a thought process as far as removing a door from its hinges, you certainly can see that a television show is maybe not quite suitable for your wee tot?! To all the parents out there ?please don't blame MTV, "Beavis and Butthead cable television, the anvils that fall on Wile E. Coyote's head, HBO or anvthing else if you can't see it within yourself to get off your butt and cancel your cable subscription (who needs it, ever hear of reading?), scramble the chan- nels that offend you or simply have enough insight to protect your impressionable child from things that s he'll learn soon enough.

But after all, we're all en- titled toour opinion. So, here we are, me writing, you reading, mv editor correcting my grammatical night- mares. Ah, it's good to be home! And while we're on thesub- ject of home, I'd like to welcome everybody back. Hopeeveryone had a restful and peaceful Fall Break. For those whospent it here inGreenville (likecertiinopinion writers whoshall remain anonvmous), mv heart trulv bleeds for you. Of course, Fall break isn't really Fall break unless it includes a trip to the dentist. I'm not sure how it worksout, hut it's probably a pack- age deal you sign up for when vou' re filling out the60gazillion formsdur- ing registration. Part of some con- tract the sch(Xl has with the Ameri- can Dental Association, something to do with getting a daily quota of mental at iguish and gum prodding. At any rate, there I was, trapped in the office, trving to get into the latest jssueofHgrJrs. You know, that children's magazine where vou trv to find the hidden soup ladle in the drawings and where vou read about the on-go- ing battle between Goofus and Gal- lant. But, to tell you the truth, my heart just wasn't into it. All I could think about was what lurked be- yond that waiting room door and if 1 could squeeze in one more brush- ing before meeting?dum-da-DUM- DUM?the DENTIST! Oneofthemostfrightening things from childhood for me was the dentist. It didn't matter how gentle, or understanding they were, I knew that every time I opened my mouth, it would be bombarded by medieval-Clive-Barker-I'm-your- worst-nightmare-stainless-steel thingamabobs capable of ripping flesh right off the bone. Every X-ray was a blueprint of dental destruc- tion, every "hmm" from the dentist a sure sign he'd found the mother of all cavities and the only way to deal with it was to cut my head off and pray my brother took after the father's side of tlit? family. Not that I've ever had a bad experience. I've been blessed with a gtxxl set of choppers. My dentist should win humanitarian of theyear awards .I've never even had my wis- dom teeth pulled,oneof theprimarv goals I hear dentists aim for. I'm fairly good with my dental hygiene techniques. It's the thought of hav- ing that man poke around my mouth and find something that sets my teeth chattering. It's funny to see how mudt anxietv is brought forth from one's profession. I guess the same goes for taxauditors. I feel sorry forpeoplein these positions. They're not out to getanyone. They'redoingwhatthey do, because they chose their career and they enjoy it. Yet, mention a visit with a purveyor of less-than- acceptabfe services and vou can almost see the horror as tt shud- ders through your friends. I don't know if anyone watched Northern Exposure last week, but they brought up a good point concerning dentist-patient rela tionships. There's a verbal con- tract between dentists and pa- tientsanditcanbeapplied tomany facets of 1 ife, perha ps even sum up what I've been trying to say. Take care of vour business, be it your teeth, checkbook, infamous cor- rupted corporation, and the worst you'll get is the occasional check up. Slack off, and you could end up getting get d rilled, grilled or killed. Novocaine optional. As for me, everything checked out fine(huge, cherry fluo- ride-tinted sigh of relief)- Ieven got to wear a little "Nocavities"sticker. God, 1 love my dentistthat is, at least until my next appoint- ment. LIKE TO WRITE?

Letters to the Editor Abortion editorial fails to benefit an already 'screwed up world' To the Editor: I am writing in response to the article by Alex Ferguson on the Opinion page this Tuesday. What the hell kind of stand is that? I am so glad there are not more people out there like Mr. Ferguson?-people that are so in- nocent and naive and take no re- sponsibility for the decay of soci- ety. "I don't care if ten year old's own submachine guns and take them to school, we don't know what kind of neighborhood they were born in This statement would just as easily fit right in with his vvav of thinking in the article. This article really disgusted me. I have never written any news- paper in response to an article be- fore. I've also never written to a Congressman either. But some- thing in this article reallv did it. It really triggered something. Here is someone who doesn't give a damn about anyone else and clearly makes a mockery of any man who chooses to express his constitutional right as an American citizen to protest abor- tion. I'm not talking about force- fully blocking an entrance to a clinic or tossing a couple grenades in these clinics; those are extreme radicals and another topic alto- gether. But Mr. Ferguson wasn't tar- geting these radicals, which would have made more sense. Instead he chooses to criticize any man who has an opinion on abortion and is not pro-choice. He goes on by say- ing, "does it ever occur to them that maybe the women don't need the opinion of a man to complicate things?" Complicate things?! What a cop-out! Oh, it is too com- plicated, shut up don't voice your opinion, you're a man. We as a society need to be concerned with the actions of others, whether they are men or women. The topic here isn't abortion. Although I'm sure, by the tone of this letter, I am going to be labeled as a "pro-lifer" by those who choose to read it. And I'm also sure that many wiil be quick to attack me verbally, either in per- son or in a future edition of this paper because I am pro-life, and a young college male. I must obvi- ously be a male pig with a screwed up head. If this letter is printed, I guarantee that I will be better known for my pro-life stance than for any other aspect about me. 1 must obviously kill abortion doc- tors and blow up clinics. And it seems that in some screwy irony, those who are "pro- lifers" are made out to be a bunch of radical old men who must be evil, because they believe in sav- ing the child's life. You would think that, in any other context, they would almost be heroes. In this con text, however, they are the evil ones and those out there de- fending mass murder of this country'syoutharethebraveones. What a screwed up world we live in. People like Mr. Ferguson sure aren't helping any. If I were his friend, and I had been drinking heavily and had decided to drive us somewhere, I sure couldn't trust him with stopping me. "Why complicate things? Let him make his own decisions is what he would probably say. The point I'm trying to make here is this, and it is really quite simple, and it extends to almost anv subject, not just abortion: if you believe in something strong enough, you have the moral re- sponsibility to protest it in some form or another. By saying that voicing an opinion is complicat- ing things too much, Mr. Ferguson has done a great injus- tice. Many things would not be the way they are today if some- one didn't have the guts to stand up and speak their mind, male or female. In response to the comment, "after all, I certainly would prefer if they stay out of my prostate cancer I wonder what he would think if the person treating his prostate cancer was a woman. Would he want her to interfere or to complicate things? Yeah, right. Don't ever run for office. Norm Viano Accounting Transfer Student Comparing prostate cancer to pregnancy unjustified, in poor taste To the Editor: This letter is in response to the article appearing in the Oc- tober 5 issue of The East Carolin- ian, "Man's position in abortion questioned I completely see that Mr. Ferguson is entitled to his own opinion, and I respect that. In fact, everyone is entitled to their opinion. This is true whether the man feels he should be included in the decision mak- ing, or it the woman feels it is no business to the man. The only thing I had a ma- jor problem with was the last paragraph in the whole article. It stated, "After all, I certainly prefer it they stav out of my prostate cancer It is under- standable that a man may want a woman to stav out of an issue such as prostate cancer. This feeling may be the same for a woman, if, for example, she has breast cancer or cervical cancer. Pregnancy and prostate cancer cannot, and should not, be used in the same sentence. Are we saving that an unborn baby is a form tit cancer for a woman1 Certainly not! Cancer is an attacker on the human body and needs to be quickly destroyed. If it is not destroyed, it will cause havoc over a person's body. A baby is a gift. A gift that is best when it is shared between two people. What makes pregnancy a strictly feminine issue? Better yet, what makes it comparable to prostate cancer. As the years have gone by, it has been proven that a man's involvement in a preg- nancy and birth are beneficial to the child and the relationship. For vears, men have com- plained that women are getting too manv rights. They are right in saving that: women are al- lowed to abort babies without even consulting the fathers? even though it took the father just as much to create the baby. After all, women cannot do it alone. Maybe I have over- stepped mv bounds, but being a female, I guess I have that choice, right? ! atricia Lafuente Occupational therapy Freshman October 14. 1993 The East Carolinian l 1 By Gregory Dickens P.C problems percolate; pencil-pusher p.od, ponders predicament I blame it all on Alan Alda. Remember when Hawkeye was the symbol for men's behavior in the 80s? He was so disarming and funny. And he cried and broke away from the machismo of the likes of television's Vinnie Babarino and Dwavne F. Schneider. The man was something men were not supposed to be at that time: sensitive. It became the rage. Men who wept or hugged their best male friend in public were suddenly in almost as much demand as Cabbage Patch Kids. Almost, now. Anyway, sensitivity became popular. People began to get in touch with themselves; therapy groups popped up for every- thing from family alcoholism to subconscious childhood trauma to slight acquaintances of pyromaniacs and the women who love them. Talk shows sprang up from the depths of Social Hell to exploit the cause du jour and to expose people who like nothing better than to talk about their love lives and eating habits. Therapy led to resolution, and resolution led to a need to confront. But these confrontations were not aimed at specific individuals but at society as a whole. Movements then cropped up, telling us what not to listen to, who not to sleep with and where not to go for personal growth (We had a men's movement, for God's sake. Most men I know won't even move to change the television channel. And what did this movement encourage men to do? Strip, run around and bang on drums. Hell, I thought that was what Woodstock and Lollapalooza were for). Sensitivity thus led to well-intentioned and emotionally timid people becoming im- mense pains in the ass. I have heaps of trouble with this political correctness thing. No longer are we allowed to offer critical opinions on other people. No?not without having to battle a vague and ever- changing set of guidelines. Either we refer to people positively, or in such an ambiguous way that the tone of our statement can't be discerned. Political correctness tells us that fat people aren't fat (they are "remarkably obese" and "unfashionably unsvelte"); handicapped people aren't at a disadvantage even if stairs become as impassable as a Tolkein mountain. And of course, there is the thorny issue of what to call people. This just eludes me. Let me preface the rest of my comments by saying that nomenclature reflects the times, and I surely won't stand in the way of anything as impressive-sounding as "modern nomen- clature even when I look up the definition. Simply put, what we call ourselves and others is now more important than how we treat ourselves and others. Can someone please print a translation text for those of us too busy to rationalize proper ethnic designation?among A fri- can- American, American-Indian and other such hyphenated labels like wall-eyed-rouge-headed-horizontally-allergic-splen- didly-myopic-thoroughly-left-handed-Bulgarian-on-the-left- no-no-I-said-the-left-yeah-that's-him-in-the-blue-sweater-eat- ing-the-Kit-Kat? Allow me to ask a simple question. If the fashionable i.d. for black people is "African-American" (and using the word "colored" is on par with drop-kicking infants), why is the leading organization for the rights of black people called the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People? Is it all right to say (you know, that phrase) if you're black? And why is the KKK allowed by law to scream the word "nigger" up and down the main street of small towns, and if I yelled it out my window I could be thrown out of ECU for speech infringement? I don't want to call anyone anything but words now are like property, with rightful owners and users? Who says what word is right or wrong? Can a word be right or wrong? Didn't Shakespeare say nothing is bad or good, but is defined by how we see it? I mean we are talking about a couple of syllables, whenever slurs or other nasty comments are used. Are we so thin-skinned that we sue or (y'ikes!) kill over some- thing as small as a word? Were we told to say "sticks and stones can break my bones, but call me so-and-so and I'll own your house or stomp on your privates, bub" No, we were told to be better than those Cro-Magnons calling us "nerd "weirdo "cootie" or "fairy Did I j ust insult any Cro-Magnons out there? Names can never hurt me Anyone remember that? It's now necessary to know one's entire genetic lineage in order to both correctly label him (I refuse to say himher, because if we can say "mankind" to refer to him and her, then "him" can reflect both as well) and not offend him (nope, won't do it; him, him, him) in even the most remote circumstance. So, we, the writers, who for whatever reason must conform with the fashion of the day, must be aware of who people are linked to by political, religious or ethnic means. For practice, the prudent writer should examine his (okay, okay: hisher. geez) own heritage for such exposition. I happen to be one of those lucky people whose genetic background could constitute the Security Counsel of the United Nations. I can claim Irish, German, English, Cherokee and (if Dad's right about the in-laws) Martian. But I can live with "writer It fits. "What is he, anyway?" A writer. Not Caucasian Overlord or Oppressor of Pencil Leads or Destroyer of Trees. "A writer" will suffice, thank you. Before the torrent of letters arrive demanding my head, I do not believe in the right of people to be mean and offensive with racial slurs, so save a stamp and relax. If we can mature past the point of using "bad words can't we get past being hurt by them? I always thought that words that insulted were used ? out of frustration or anger, not because they magically reduced someone in stature or deed. If we are trying to prove that 30 years of desegregation weren't for nothing, we have to start on the most basic level. Self-image defines a person, not preconcep- tion or suggestion. Words, for ail their connotations and emo- tional weight, are merely words. They cannot defeat us. We are better than that. All of us. Even Alan Alda. By Laura Wright Pet peeves: animal injustice hidden by seeming love I once know a guy named Fred, and Fred owned a beauti- ful dog named Mariam. Fred lived in Boone where he attended college, went to church every Sunday and played his Chris- tian rock music a little too loudly. Doug, who lived below him, was often tempted to jab the ceiling with a broom handle. Fred al- ways got the hint and turned down the tunes. Fred went out of town ev- ery weekend so Doug could re- lax in silence. But one thing both- ered Doug: Fred left Mariam tied in the backyard with a bowl of water (frozen in the winter); some food; and a shabby, wooden dog house. The rope that was attached to Mariam's collar was about six feet long. This treatment seemed very unfair to Doug, but he was not surprised by it?Fred left Mariam on that rope 24 hours a day, even when he was in town. But to give Fred the benefit of the doubt, as we should try to do, he probably didn't consider how his status as a college stu- dentwould affecthispet. Like so many students here at ECU, Fred thought of his pet as his prop- erty, and he was therefore al- lowed to do whatever he wanted to do with it. If you have a pet, or you're thinking about getting one, keep a few things in mind. College students are tran- sients. Our stay here is tempo- rary, and we don't know where we may be after we graduate. If you get a pet when you're a sophomore, chances are you'll still have it when you're ready to move on. If you were lucky enough to live in an apartment or a house where you could have a pet, you may not be so lucky when you move. Sharing your space can be difficult and most apartments are small. Keeping a pet cramped up is almost as bad as keeping her or him outside on a rope. Animals need to be outside some of the time; they need to get exer- cise and they need fresh air. At the other end of the spectrum, if you can't have a pet inside where you live, then, by gum, don't get one. No animal deserves to be tied down or caged in. If you already have a pet and you have to keep it outside, make sure that you spend time with it. Animals are very forgiv- ing; they stick by you no matter how badly you treat them. They love unconditionally, and they suffer in silence in the hopes that you'll snap out of your self-serv- ing denial of their needs. Animals aren't objects. Don't give puppies and kittens as Christmas presents if you are too unoriginal to come up with a better, more practical idea. Babv animals grow up and become less cute. If they are unwanted, they may be abandoned. Pets are still around (atleastfora while),even when their owners have forgot- ten about them?just visit the animal shelter. Or just ask Doug. I tell you all of this, because I end up feeding the cats that eat out of thedumpsters.Iget barked at by the dogs tied in the yards around my neighborhood, and sometimes, I think that if I weren't afraid of being bitten, I'd liber- ate those pooches. Doug knew that pets weren't allowed in the apart- ments where he and Fred lived, but he did all that he could to save Mariam from her fate. Doug, kind soul that he is, gave Mariam water when hers froze, he put a blanket in her house and he spent some time with her when he could. He called the Humane Society and was told that unless there was physi- cal abuse, unless Miriam wasn't being fed, or unless she had no shelter from the cold, there was nothing that could be done. Doug sent Fred an anony- mous letter. Nothing happened. Doug contemplated stealing Mariam, but he had no where to take her, no home to give her, and he couldn't justify stealing someone else's property. But we shouldn't think of animals as property. Property is the junk that we leave on the curb when we move. Pets should accom- pany us as we drive from col- lege into thegreatbeyond. They make the ride bearable. By T. Scott Batchelor Bizarre districts drawn, citing injustice Perverse. Absolutely- perverse. That's what I thought standing before the multi- colored map of North Carolina's 12 congressional districts. The map looked like a painter's brush cloth, with the First and 12th districts as red and yellow paint spills, rambling aimlessly and inanely across the posterboard like the Missis- sippi River. These misbegotten shapes were born out of a well-intentioned yet delete- rious notion: since, for what- ever reason, North Carolina lacked black representatives in Congress, we should cre- ate majority-minoritv dis- tricts to help ensure that blacks get elected to the House of Representatives. Underpinning this idea are two assumptions which have been passed off as truths, both erroneous. The first is that the reason North Carolina had no blacks in the House of Representatives is due to the racial prejudice of a majority white electorate? an invidious and wholly in- defensible theory. And the state's answer to this perceived injustice presents an interesting quasi- corollary to this idea of ra- cial preference: those who re- drew the districts must have been confident that a major- ity black district would elect a black candidate. In other words, the belief that black North Carolinians are ra- cially prejudiced drove the redistricting plan. A bitter irony considering the con- tinual charges by black lead- ers that election outcomes are decided by a candidate's skin color. The second erroneous assumption that helped cre- ate North Carolina's bizarre districts is that only a mem- ber of a certain racial or eth- nic group is qualified to ef- fectively represent that group in Congress. Balder- dash! Under this philosophy, we would have to create ex- tra seats and districts to ac- commodate the representa- tives of different races, eth- nic groups, religions, occu- pations, ages, etc. One need not be black to represent blacks nor whites to represent whites. This concept simply lacks any intellectual substance and is dangerously divisive besides. Fortunately for us right-thinking individuals, we have men like Robinson O. Everett to challenge these misguided actions. Everett is a professor of law at Duke University and served as Chief judge of the U.S. Court of Military Appeals from 1980-1990. Heandfourother Durham voters attacked the redistricting plans on grounds of racial gerryman- dering. Everett argued the case of Shaw v. Reno before the U.S. Supreme Court on April 20, 1993. The case was decided on June 28,1993, and in Jus- tice O' Connor's opinion of the Court (joined by Chief Justice Rehnquist and Jus- tices Scalia, Kennedy and Thomas) "emphasized in strong terms that 'bizarre' congressional districts are suspect when it is clear that they are drawn to assure the election of persons of a particular race according to Everett. "Moreover writes Everett Justice O'Connor concluded that the five plaintiffs?even though they are white?had rights under the equal pro- tection clause of the 14th Amendment and could claim injury This ruling has most assuredly upset the two Congressmen who owe their seats to the racial ger- rymandering, Clayton and Watt. But for the rest of us who still believe in Martin Luther King, Jrs statement that people should "not be judged"?and elected?"by the color of their skin, but by the content of their char- acter this decision has taken us a giant step toward that goal. By Joseph Horst World changes begin with personal growth Let me ask you a question. How is it that a person can tell you one thing and six months later act total! v different? How is it that someone can tell you ? and make you believe ? that they feel a certain way and then act in a very extreme opposite manner? Does it not occur to them that if a person is exposed to this hypocrisy often enough, more than likely they'll just give up on the person all together? Granted, I am taking these questions from a personal experience of mine that hap- pened recently. However, this column is not meant as a vent for my personal frustrations. Rather, I have to wonder how some people maintain friends and relationships when they don't follow up their words with actions. Look at it this way: a politician running for election says that he is vehemently against spending taxpayers' money for personal trips. After he is in office for a few years, someone discovers that he has been writing off trips to the Bahamas as "business-related No one's very surprised when this happens ? hell, all politicians are liars, right? What does this do thatperson'sstatusinthepubliceye,however? Let me bring this a li ttle closer to home for Joe Average Student. The person you're going out with says that they don't want to have sex because it would ruin the friendship. They say that the friendship is too important to them to risk losing it. You respect that decision and admire the person for thinking so much of you. Later, however, that person lies to you or just decides that it's time to move on. What mes- sage does this give you? I'll tell you what message it gives me. For all that talk about how important that friend- ship was, that's all it ever was ? just talk. If a person can't back up their statements with concrete examples, why should you believe anyofitforasecond?Any man orwoman can look you straight in the face and lie their ass off. The only way you can tell what the truth really is, is by looking at how those people act. This touches on a previous topic of mine. People moan and complain about how bad and terrible our society is nowadays. If they would only start to look at their own lives and live them the way they think others should, maybe, just maybe, this world would be a better place to live in. Clean your own house before you start commenting on the terrible condition of your neighbor's. How will people be able to know what you think life should be like? Bv your actions, and nothing else. If you think work ethics are important in life, show your co-workers with your own work if family values are impor- tant, give some attention and love to your children and spouse. It might surprise you how quickly people come to respect and emu- late you when you show thern what you feel the good things in life are. Wanttochange the world?Great. Noble concept. The problem comes up when you ask yourself hoivcan you change the world. Allow me to give you my own personal solution, if you would. Change your little comer first. Show people ? by your actions, not your words?whatyou think Utopia is. Create your own personal pa rad ise and let others view i t so that they might eventually achieve their own.

There are now 24 million cases of human papilloma virus (HPV), with a higher prevalence among teens.14 To date, over 20 different and dangerous sexually transmitted diseases are rampant among the young. Add to that the problems associated with promiscuous behavior: infertility, abor- tions and infected newboms. The cost of this epidemic is staggering, both in human suffering and in expense to soci- ety; yet epidemiologists tell us we've only seen the beginning. Incredibly, the "safe-sex"gurus and condom promoters who got us into this mess are still determining our policy regarding adolescent sexuality. Their ideas have failed, and it is time to rethink their bankrupt policies. How long has it been since you've heard anyone tell teenagers why it is to their advantage to remain virgins until married? The facts are being withheld from them, with tragic consequences. Unless we come to terms with the sick- ness that stalks a generation of Americans, teen promiscuity will continue, and millions of kids think- ing they are protected will suffer for the rest of their lives. Many will die of AIDS. There is only one safe way to remain healthy in the midst of a sexual revolu- tion. It is to abstain from intercourse until marriage, and then wed and be faithful to an uninfected partner. It is a concept that was widely endorsed in society until the 1960s. Since then, a "better idea" has come along one that now threatens the entire human family. Inevitable questions are raised when- ever abstinence is proposed. It's time we gave some clear answers: message from Focus on the Family Why, apart from moral coasid erations, do you think teenagers should r taught to abstain from sex until marriage? No other approach to the epidemic of sexually transmitted diseases will work. The so-called "safe-sex" solution is a disaster in the making. Condoms can fail at least 15.7 percent of the time annually in preventing pregnancy They fail 36.3 percent of the time annually in preventing pregnancy among young, unmarried minority women In a study of homosexual men. the British Medical Journal reported the failure rate due to slippage and breakage to be 26 percent Given these findings, it is obvious why we have a word for people who rely on condoms as a means of birth control. We call them "parents Remembering that a woman can conceive only one or two days per month, we know the failure rate for condoms must be much higher when it comes to preventing disease, which can be transmitted 365 days per year! If the devices are not used properly, or if they slip just once, viruses and bacteria are exchanged and the disease process begins. One mistake after 500 "protected" episodes is all it takes to contract a sexually trans- mitted disease. The damage is done in a single moment when rational thought is overridden by passion. Those who would depend on so inse- cure a method must use it properly on every occasion, and even then a high failure rate is brought about by factors beyond their control. The young victim who is told by his elders that this little latex device is "safe" may not know he is risking lifelong pain and even death for so brief a window of pleasure. What a burden to place on an immature mind and body! In fact, the University of Texas Medical Branch recently found that condoms are only 69 percent effective in preventing the transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in hetero- sexual couples. Dr. Susan Welter of UTMB conducted a meta-analysis of 11 independent HIV transmission studies. Her conclusion: "When it comes to the sexual transmission of HIV, the only real prevention is not to have sex with someone who has or might have HIV18 This surely explains why not one of 800 sexologists at a conference a few years ago raised a hand when asked if they would trust a thin rubber sheath to protect them during intercourse with a known HIV-infected person9 Who could blame them? They're not crazy, after all. And yet they're perfectly will- ing to tell our kids that "safe sex" is within reach and that they can sleep around with impunity. There is only one way to protect ourselves from the deadly diseases that lie in wait. It is abstinence before marriage, then marriage and mutual fidelity for life to an uninfected partner. Anything less is potentially suicidal. That position is simply NOT realistic today. It's an unwork- able solution: Kids will NOT implement it. Some will. Some won't. It's still the only answer. But let's talk about an "unworkable solution" of the first order. Since 1970, the federal government has spent billions of our tax dollars to promote contraception and "safe sex This year alone, hundreds of millions of your tax dollars will go down that drain! (Compared with less than $8 million for abstinence programs, which Sen. Teddy Kennedy and company have sought repeatedly to eliminate alto- gether.) Isn't it time we ask what we've gotten for our money? After 22 years and billions of dollars, some 58 percent of teenage girls under 18 still did not use contraception during their first inter course.2" Furthermore, teenagers tend to ratio of the experts who call abstinence 'unrealistic" and "unworkable Even if we spent another $50 billion to promote condom usage, most teenagers would still not use them consistently and properly. The nature of human beings and the passion of the act simply do not lend themselves to a disci- plined response in young romantics. But if you knew a teenager was going to have intercourse, wouldn't you teach him or her about proper condom usage? No, because that approach has an unintended consequence. The process of recommending condom usage to teenagers inevitably conveys five dangerous ideas: (1) that "safe sex" is achievable; (2) that everybody is doing it; (3) that responsible adults expect them to do it; (4) that it's a good thing; and (5) that their peers know they know these things, breeding promiscuity, Those' are very destructive messages to give our kids. Furthermore, Planned Parenthood's own data show that the number one reason teenagers engage in inter- course is peer pres- sure Therefore, anything we do to imply that "everybody is doing it" results tn more not fewer people who give the game a try. Condom distribu- tion programs do not reduce the number of kids exposed to disease they radi- cally increase it! Since the federal government began its major contraception program in 1970, unwed pregnancies have increased 87 percent among 15-to -year-olds.2' Likewise, abortions among teens rose 67 percent;24 unwed births went up 83.8 percent.25 And venereal disease has infected a generation of young people. Nice job, sex counselors. Good thinking, senators and congressmen. Nice nap, America. Having made a blunder that now threatens the human family, one would think the designers would be back tracking and apologizing for their miscalculations. Instead, they continue to lobby Congress and corporate America for more money. Given the misinformation extant on this subject, they'll probably get it. But if you were a parent and knew that your son or daughter was having sex, wouldn't you rather he or she used a condom? How much risk is accept able when you're talking about your teenager's life? One study of married couples in which one partner was infected with HIV found that 17 of the partners using condoms for protection still caught the virus within a year and a half.26 Telling our teens to "reduce their risk" to one in six (17) is not much better than advocating Russian roulette. Both are fatal, eventually. The difference is that with a gun, death is quicker. Suppose your son or daughter were join- ing an 18-month skydiving club of six members. If you knew that one of their parachutes would definitely fail, would you recommend that they simply buckle the chutes tighter? Certainly not. You would say, "Please don't jump. Your life is at stake How could a loving parent do less? Kids won't listen to the absti- nence message. You're just wasting your breath to try to sell them a notion like that It is a popular myth that teenagers are incapable of understanding that it is in their best interest to save them- selves until marriage. Almost 65 percent of all high school females under 18 are virgins.27 groups?just an ex-convict named Harold Morris talking about abstinence, among other subjects. The coliseum seated 18,(XX) people, but 26,000 teenagers showed up! Eventually, more than 2,000 stood outside the packed auditorium and listened over a hastily prepared public address system. Who says kids won't listen to this time- honored message? Even teens who have been sexually active can choose to stop. This is often called "secondary virginity a good concept that conveys the idea that kids can start over. One young girl recently wrote Ann Landers to say she wished she had kept her virginity, signing the letter, 'Sorry I didn't and wish I could take it back As responsible adults we need to tell her that even though she can't go back, she can go forward. She can regain her self-respect and protect her health, because it's never too late to start saying "no" to premarital sex. Even though the safe-sex advo- cates predominate in educational circles, are there no positive exam- ples of abstinence-based programs for kids? Thankfully, some excellent programs have been developed. Spokane-based Teen-Aid and Chicago's Southwest Parents Committee are good examples. So are Next Generation in Maryland, Choices in California and Respect Inc. in Illinois. Other curricula such as Facing Reality; Sex Respect; Me. My World, My Future; Reasonable Reasons to Wait; Sex. Love & Choices; F.A.C.T.S etc are all abstinence-themed programs to help kids make good sexual decisions. A good curriculum for inner-city youth is Elayne Bennett's Best Friends Program. This successful "mentoring" project helps adolescents in Washington, DC. graduate from high school and remain abstinent. In five years, not one female has become pregnant while in the Best Friends Program. Establishing and nurturing absti- nence ideas with kids, however, in be like spitting into the wind. Not because they won't listen, because most will. But pro-abstinence messages are drowned out in a sea of toxic teen-sex- is-inevitable-use- a-condom propaganda from "safe-sex" professionals. You place major responsi- bility on those who have told adolescents that sexual expression is their right as long as they do it "properly Who else has contributed to the epidemic? The entertainment industry must certainly share the blame, including tele- vision producers. It is interesting in this context that all four networks and the cable television entities are wringing their hands about this terrible epidemic of AIDS. They profess to be very concerned about those who are infected with sexually transmitted diseases, and perhaps they are sincere. However, TV executives and movie moguls have contributed mightily to the existence of this plague. For decades, they have depicted teens and young adults climb- ing in and out of each other's beds like so many sexual robots. Only the nerds were shown to be chaste, and they were too stupid or ugly to find partners. Of course, the beautiful young actors in those steamy dramas never faced any consequences for their sexual indul- gence. No one ever came down with herpes, or syphilis, or chlamydia or pelvic inflammatory disease, or infertil- ity, or AIDS, or genital warts, or cervical cancer. No patients were ever told by a physician that there was no cure for their disease or that they would have to deal with the pain for the rest of their lives. No one ever heard that genital cancers associated with the human papilloma virus (HPV) kill more women than AIDS,28 or that strains of gonorrhea are now resistant to penicillin.29 No, there was no downside. It all looked like so much fun. But what a price we are paying now for the lies we have been told. The government , has also contributed to this crisis and continues to exac- erbate the problem. For example, a current brochure from the federal Centers for Disease Control and the City of New York is entitled, 'Teens Have the Right and is apparently intended to free adolescents from adult authority. Inside are the six declarations that make up a 'Teenager's Bill of Rights as follows: ? I have the right to think for myself. ? I have the right to decide, whether to have sex and whofm to have'it with. ? I have the right to use protection when I have sex. ? I have the right to buy and use condoms. ? I have the right to express myself. ? I have the right to ask for help if I need it. Under this final item (the right to ask for help) is a list of organizations and phone numbers that readers are encour- aged to call. The philosophy that governs several of the organizations includes presenting homosexuality as an acceptable life style and vigorous promotion of a teen's right to sexual expression. Your tax dollars at work! Surely there are other Americans who recognize the danger now threaten- ing a generation of our best and bright- est. It is time to speak up for an old-fash- ioned value called virginity. Now, more than ever, virtue is a necessity.

This area is examined for a reaction within 48 to 72 hours. If nothing happens, you probably have not had any contact with the . TB germ. If there is a reaction, your health care provider will decide if it is "positive" by mea- suring the size of the reaction. Question: What does a posi- tive TB skin test mean?

You were in- fected with the germ but you did not become sick with it. If for any See TB page 21 Staff Writer Why does the sun shine? I've asked myself that more times than I can remember, and I know I'm not alone. Well, for all us stumped sci- ence buffs down here on Mother Earth, They Might Be Giants has kindly released a new EP thatboldly asks (and answers) that very ques- tion. Appropriately titled WIiyDoes the Sun Shine? (The Sun is a Mass of Incandescent Gas), this new disc from the men who brought us such scien- tific blockbusters as "Particle Man" faces one of the burning questions of our day head-on. The title track is delivered with a lovely sing-song quality that lingers in your mind for hours after just one listen. Handy for those impromtu physics quizzes! This song provides a flurry of essential background information on our sun "The sun is hot, the sun is large, the sunisfaraway'croonsvocalistjohn Hansburghinoneofthesong'smore revealing passages. Aside from offering this cor- nucopia ofvitalinformation(another mind-blowing tidbit: "The sun is 93 million miles away, and that's why it looks so small Wow! It's science!), "WhyDoestheSunShine?" finallyanswersitsownquestion. The sun shines, we are told, because it is in reality "a huge, atom-smashing machine What a bold statement! This is likely to ruffleafew feathers among theorists following the "Raming Chariotof the Gods" school of phys- ics.

If people are worried that there's a huge, uncon- trollable atomic reactor our there just waiting to blow us all to King- dom Come, then so be it. It's about time we faced the truth. But They Might Be Giants aren't justa bunch of sciencegeeks! As the rest of this EP proves, this band has its fingers on the pulse of the music industry, too. Following "Why Does the Sun Shine?" is a rollicking cover of the Allman Brothers' "Jessica delivered with the full power of a They Might Be Giants all-out accordion-and- glockenspiel attack. Next is a cover of the Meat Puppets' poignant "Whirlpool the touching story of a "swirling massof water" thatwantstogoout and see the world. A slight return to the scientific motif, "Whirlpool" is nevertheless a gentle, heart- warming piece of music. Listen to it with somebody you love. The disc is rounded out with "Spy an homage to spy movie themes and improvisational jazz. Good for those romantic evenings in your secret under-ground head- quarters, or even when you're just feeling a little sneaky. They Might Be Giants has done it again, with a collection of music that's both educational and entertaining, in a tone every bit as sarcastic as my own. Why Does the Sun Shine? is a fine addition to the band's catalogue of goofy weird- ness; music that sounds like a sur- realist Disney cartoon soundtrack. Pick it up for a taste of the strange. Scholarship opportunities everywhere Staff Writer Michael J. Fox presents an image on the silver screen that is hard not to like. Starting with his Back to the Future roles, he has consistently portrayed likable characters If they are not likable for the entire film, then they are at least likable by the final reel. Fox's latest film, For Love or Money, once again finds Fox in a clunker of a vehicle that gets pro- pelled mostly by Fox's warm per- sonality. J For Love or Money tells the tale of Doug Ireland (Fox), a hotel concierge who can make every customer happy every time. He produces Yankee tickets with the greatest of ease, hands out Miss Saigon front seats with nary an effort and smoothes out entangle- ments for many of the hotel's guests. Doug can truly work magic, but he wants the magic of owning his own hotel most of all. Early in the film Doug gets his wish. A friend introduces Doug to Christian Hanover (An- thony Higgins), an entrepreneur who agrees to finance Doug's hotel in return for favors. One of the favors involves Christian's girlfriend Andy Hart (Gabrielle Anwar?last seen doing a tango with Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman). Christian asks Doug to entertain Andy with discretion. Christian wants Andv to believe thatheisgoingtoleavehiswifeso thathecan stay with heronlonely nights. As the story progresses Doug and Andy begin to fall in love and Doug must decide whether love or money is his true desire. Though cliched,theending elicits smiles from the audience. The love theme provides the main story line in For Love or Money but the subplots prove more en- joyable. For Love or Money could have been really great had it con- centrated solely on Doug's maneuverings to please the cus- tomers. Watching Doug deal with a rich eccentric who wants Doug to by diamonds and stuffed giraffes and who always wants his two dogs taken for a walk provides some of the best laughs in the film. Observing Doug hustling for various tickets also proves enjoy- able. Doug also helps a couple trying to rekindle a romance by giving them tickets to a Broad- way show, recommending a hair- stylist and reserving a limousine.

ECU natural team explores By Daniel Willis Staff Writer ECU is sending a nautical sur- vey team to Mobile, Alabama to examine ships that sank during the Civil War Battle of Mobile Bay. ECU archeologists Gordan P. Watts heads the group which will be surveying the three ships. The Tecumseh is the most fa- mous of the three vessels. It was struck by a torpedo. Ninety-three men died as the ship sank in a mere25 seconds. It took the Union fleet totally by surprise and briefly suspended its progress. The documentation of The Tecumseh and the other two ships, The C.S.S. Gaines and The U.S.S. Philippi is being funded by a $20,000 grant. Watt notes that an impor- tant aspect of this research is that the Parks Service considers Mobile Bay a battlefield. He said, "Park Service protects his- toric battlefields but that pro- tection, until now, has extended to battle sites on land. Thiscouid lead to protection and manage- ment plans for historic nautical battle sites at Mobile Bay, Fort Fisher, North Carolina and Yorktown, Virginia The ECU team includes stu- dents and faculty from the graduate program in Maritime History and Nautical Archeol- ogy.

IRONICALLY, THE TIME TO START SAVING FOR RETIREMENT IS WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN LEAST AFFORD IT. Can't afford to save for retirement? The truth is, you can't afford not to. Not when you realize that your retirement can last ao to 30years or more. You'll want to live at least as comfortably then as you do now. And that takes planning. By starting to save now, you can take advantage of tax-deferral and give your money time to compound and grow. Consider this: set aside just $100 each month beginning at age 30 and you can accumulate over $154,031 by the time you reach age 65. But wait ten years and you'll have to budget $211 each month to reach the same goal. Even if you're not counting the years to retirement, you can count on TIAA-CREF to help you build the future you deserve? with flexible retirement and tax-deferred annuity plans, a diverse portfolio of invest- ment choices, and a record of personal service that spans 75 years. Over a million people in education and research put TIAA-CREF at the top of their list for retirement planning. Why not join them?

Trouble is, after a intern ol the I ate Night modest, yet promising start, Conan's comic learning curve seems to have gone flat. His show has seldom been otherwise. Meanwhile, Conan's ratings are headed south. The nightly two million TV households he scored his first week on the air had shrunk to 1.65 million for the week ending Oct. 1, according to 'since arriving Sept. 13. the 30-year-old trainee-host has earned passing grades as an in- terviewer.

That compare with former "Late Night" host David Letterman, who this time last year was reach- ing 2.3 million TV homes. O'Brien edited the Harvard Lampoon and he wrote for "Sat- urday Night Live" and the in- comparable "Simpsons but with virtually no on-camera ex- perience to draw upon, he has proved all thumbs at thinking funny on his feet. (And he gets minimal assistance from sidekick Alex Chilton working on new album If you thought Big Star was the end, think again. NASHVILLE, Tcnn (AP) ? Alex Chilton is a rock 'n' roll leg- end who doesn't like to look back. His admirers do it for him. Chilton was the leader of the 1970s band Big Star, which makes him rock 'n' roll royalty to some people ? the Replacements, REM, the Bangles and the Posies among them ? and unknown to many- more. Until Rykodisc Records reis- sued the three-album Big Star catalogue last year (plus a live album), their mix of British Inva- sion pop and Velvet Underground irony was known only to the faith- ful few around at the beginning and to those lucky enough to get their hands on bootlegs. "Big Star is kind of like passed on with the same reverence that fathers teach their sons to throw a baseball is how Ken Stringfellow of the Posies puts it. A short history lesson: Big Star, named after a South- ern chain of supermarkets, was formed in 1971 by Chris Bell, Andy Hummel and Jody Stephens. All were Memphis teen- agers who wanted to imitate the Beatles ? they also liked the Byrds, the Kinks, the Raspberries and Todd Rundgren. They were joined by Chilton, a former teen sensation who had had a string of hit records as lead singer of The Box Tops, starting with "The Letter He added a tough, progressively darker edge to Big Star. "There was a kind of Lennon- McCartney relationship between them (Chilton and Bell) said Stephens, Big Star's drummer. "As evidenced by the first al- bum, Chris was kind of a sweeter, potpier kind of guy. Alex's per- formance has always been a bit grittier There were three lavishly ac- claimed albums, about 20 live shows, and tepid distribution and promotion by Ardent Records, a subsidiary of Stax. Bell left after thefirstalbum 7 Recor'(hediedin a 1978 car wreck). Two more records, Radio City and Third fol- lowed before the dispirited band broke up. And as far as Big Star was concerned ? that was that. But some people wanted them back. Last spring, Missouri Uni- versity students took a chance and asked Chilton and Stephens to play at their Springiest. With Stringfellow and John Auer of the Posies filling out the band, Big Star returned and now has a new album, Columbia: Live at Missouri University 4-25-93. "It wasn't proposed to me as a Big Star reunion at all Chilton said in a phone interview from New Orleans. 'So the next thing I knew, people were talking all about it as a Big Star reunion, and I said 'WHAT? Chilton has spent his time since Big Star putting out eclectic, erratic solo albums (his next is of jazz standards), touring clubs with his solo material and mak- ing the oldies circuit with the Box Tops hits. He also has a habit of putting a damper on Big Star disciples. He says he truly likes only about five of the band's songs, and would have skipped the reunion for any better-paving offer. "Then the next thing I knew after that, a big record company (Zoo) was saying they wanted to record it and that it would be pretty decent money if I wanted to do it. So at that point I said, 'A paying gig The new record grunges up the band's harder-edged material, and adds versions of the oft-boot- legged Chris Bell solo song "I Am the Cosmos and raucous rendi- tions of Rundgren's "Slut" and Mark Bolan's "Baby Strange Andy Richter, who plavs Lumpy Rutherford to Conan's Beaver Cleaver.) Worse, O'Brien reveals little skill at performing prepared ma- terial. He may be likeable, pleas- ant, earnest and he knows how to follow the cue cards, but he just isn't funny to watch. What to do? Conan's plan is to win over his audience by con- fessing his sins.That nervous whinny of a laugh and puppy- eager manner say it loud and clear: if I apologize enough, you'll love me ? or at least indulge me. So Conan's name, gangly ap- pearance, rust-colored pompa- dour, squeaky voice, inability at singing and lame monologues all are regular targets of his own jibes. He also kids himself about the pressure he is under to suc- ceed, pressure that in truth is maybe starting to wear on him. Anyway, his face is breaking out. (Can pimple jokes be far off?) Even in the animated "Late Night" opening, a cartoon Conan steps from behind the curtain, then gulps and flings off a few beads of flop sweat. Excuses, excuses! However endearing his pre-emptive strikes may have been at first, O'Brien's ongoing effort to laugh off his shortcomings has ceased to be a laughing matter. "Late .jght" executive pro- ducer Lome Michaels, whose TV creations have stood for 18 years and counting ("Saturday Night Live") and crumbled after three months ("The New Show" in 1984), should exceed the latter milestone with his latest dis- covery. (Who would NBC re- place Conan with, anyway? Katie Couric can't do EVERY- THING.) That doesn't mean Michaels made a wise choice insinuating this rookie into the late-night scene. Memory fails, but HIS excuse must have had something to do with freshness and innovation. Unfortunately, the show that resulted is an exercise in rank amateurism and plodding sameness that makes you wonder if Conan even remembers how to write. Fall Super Service Savings!

We were trv- ing to be funny for ourselves she said at a news conference Sun- day. Danson wore blackface makeup and huge white lips at Friday's closed-door roast in New York. The "Cheers" television star also used the word "nigger" sev- eral times and joked about his sex life with Miss Goldberg. The actress attacked talk show I Monte Williams for lashing out U Danson. She said Williams should have been familiar with the pri- vate club's 89-year history- of rib- ald roasts and expected jokes to focus on sex, gender, bodilv func- tions, religion and race. "Perhaps Montel's show is not doing as well as it could be and this was his way of drawing attention Miss Goldberg said. She said if Williams were a real man he would have talked to her before going public with his criti- cism. A spokesman for Williams or his syndicated series could not be reached for comment Sunday. In a telegram announcing his resignation from the exclusive male-only club, Williams wrote: "I was confused as to whether or not I was at a Friars event or at a rally for the KKK and Aryan Na- tion. "When Ted made the jokes about the racially-mixed kids, and everyone knows my wife is white and just gave birth to our child, I could see my wife start to cry. If that's what Whoopi and Ted find funny in their bedroom, it's not funny to the outside world he said. Goldberg said Williams left shortly after Danson started speaking and didn't hear the off- color presentations by others such as comic Robin Williams. Miss Goldberg i.ad a state- ment from Danson in which he said he did not intend to appear racist. Miss Goldberg said she her- self had written much of the ma- terial for Danson and even found him the makeup artist who ap- plied the blackface. She said the actor was hurt by the criticism. "Ted Danson is not a racist Goldberg said, pointing to their highly publicized relationship. She is black, he is white.

Botero's 16 sculptures come to New York straight from Paris where they adorned the Champs Erysees. They are weighty masterpieces, no doubt aboutit. The work has a mythi- cal feel to it, suggesting a world that is beyond ordinary dimensions. Because Botero's world is over- flowing wi th fa t people and creatures, their appearance in this weight-con- scious country gives them a whimsi- cal quality, and prompts some to chuckle. Don't chuckle too loudlv in the artist's presence. You might not associate him right away with his work. Botero has fierce, small eyes, a stem little mustache and bristling gray hair that forms a crown around an oblong, dark face.

They in- crease the focal length of a tele- photo lens or the zoom range of a zoom lens ? giving you in effect two lenses in one. For example, with a 2 teleconverter. a 70- 210mm zoom becomes a 140- 420mm zoom. With a 1.5 teleconverter, a 100mm lens be- comes a 150mm lens. Although teleconverters are not as pricey as telephoto lenses, there's a price to pay for using them. First, you lose f-stops. You lose one stop with a 1.5X teleconverter, two stops with a 2X converter, and four stops with a 3X converter. As one example, when using a 2X converter, a 70-210mm f4.5 5.6 zoom becomes a f8-11.2 zoom. This reduction in light entering the camera not only produces a darker viewfinder image but may, in subdued lighting conditions, hinder autofocusing ? because most AF SLR cameras are not de- signed to autofocus with lenses that have a maximum aperture of f5.6 or smaller. So, when using a 2X teleconverter with a relatively slow zoom or telephoto lens, vou may have to focus manually. What's more, unless you purchase i known name, you will lose sub stanrial image quality. For the highest quality results look tor a teleconverter with from five to seven elements. Note that teleconverters work best on fixed- focal length lenses because they !) are traditionally sharper and 2) have wider apertures than zoom lenses. However, name-brand teleconverters can be used on zooms with acceptable results. In addition, you'll probably get the best image quality with a teleconverter made specifically for use with one focal length lens ? as opposed to a teleconverter that can be used on a variety of lenses. Teleconverters are useful ac- cessories for wildlife, portrait and sports photography. They are great for those who like to travel light as well as for those on a tight budget. In slide shows, pictures iaken with a good teleconverter and good lens will be hard to tell apart from a picture taken with a fixed-focal length lens or zoom lens with the same effective focal length. The same holds true for enlargements up to 11x14 inches. When shooting with a teleconverter, you may, due to the reduction in maximum f-stop, need a faster speed film for a hand- held exposure. For example, if you are used to shooting with ISO 100 film, you may have to switch to ISO 200, which will give you a faster shutter speed than ISO film in the same lighting conditions. In any case, it is a good idea to pack a few extra rolls of medium and fast film just in case the clouds roll in and it gets a bit darker. 1 The East Carolinian is still accepting applications for a book reviewer- Fill out an application this week in the Student Publications Building (across from Joyner!)

Sonnefeld started out in Hol- lywood as a cinematographer and proves again in For Love or Money that he has an eye for interesting shots. Bestknown as thecinema tog- rapher for the Coen brother's first three films, Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, and Miller's Crossing, Sonnefeld knows how to catch the viewer's eye. Whether he shoots the city from high above it or winds the camera through the narrow, dark passageways of the hotel, Sonnefeld constantlv angles thecamera tocatch interesting nuances of the people and scenery. Unfortunately Sonnefeld tells a disjointed tale in For Love or Money, just as he did in The Addams Family. The latter film seemed more like a compilation of short skits than a cohesive motion picture. Perhaps Sonnefeld will learn to be a story- teller and will thus a ugment his abil- ity with the camera. If he does, he could become a first-rate director. TEAM Besides Fox, the one bright spot in this cast is Gabrielle Anwar. Her Andy is disarmingly sweet with plenty of spunk.

Compiled by Brian Olson Bucs prepare for 'Dogs By Brian Olson Assistant Sports Editor This year's homecomingcould not have come at more opportune time for ECU ? a win may help savage a potentially dismal season. The rest of this season's schedule only gets harder and the Bucs will sail into Ficklen Stadium Saturday with a 1-4 mark. The struggling offense has been locked up and has not passed 'GO' since the loss of starting quarterback Marcus Crandell. Lastweek the Pirates saw their two-game win streak over South Carolina snapped, 27-3. The bright spot for ECU is the improved defense under new de- fensive coordinator Larry Coyer. The defense has shown a much- improved ability to stop the run. Five games into this season, the defense has only allowed 134.4 yards per game on the ground, a vast improvement on last year's total of 253.4 per game. ECU's de- fense has not had such success stopping opposing runners since 1983 and Tech's offense is nothing to write home to mom about. The Bulldogs have used three quarterbacks this year and none have thrown for a TD. Jason Martin has been their best signal caller, going26of55 for 334 yards. Aaron Ferguson has continued to search for success after last season's disap- pointment and will likely share some time with Martin. Tech departed with 18 lettermen from the offense last sea- son, including offensive lineman Willie Roaf. He was selected eighth overall by the New Orleans Saints. Techalsolosttheiroffensivecoordi- nator,PatTilley. The weak offensive line for Bulldogs has not cleared the big holes Roaf made last season for the running game. LTU's main running back to watch is Jason Cooper. He is averaging 3.8 yards a carry and has a total of 211 yards through four games. Defensive troubles are every- where for Louisiana Tech. Oppo- nents have barreled through the young defense gaining 781 yards over four games. They are allowing an average of 4.6 yards per carry. This could be the ingredient the Pirates are looking for to take pres- sure off the struggling passing of- fense. The Bulldogs lost eight start- ers from a defense that held oppo- nents under 17 points nine times in '92. National Champion Alabama managed only 13 points against the Bulldogs. ECU runningbackjunior Smith is running well for the Bucs. He has gained 627 yards rushing and is averaging 4.86 yards per carry. He also has five TDs. Look for him to have another big day against the Bulldogs. This week i t appears that Perez Mattison will get the starting call from coach Steve Logan at quarter- back. The freshman has struggled sofar,going8ofl7for67yardswith four interceptions and no TDs. Last week's starter Chris Hester will sit because of reported injuries. The offensive line must give Mattison a chance to throw the ball and protect him from injury. The offensive line will miss Derrick Leaphart and Terry Tilgham, who have been out since the Washington game and will re- main out for the year. Linebacker Mark Libiano,defensive back Hank Cooper and half-back Greg Hoyd are day-to-day. The last time ECU played Loui- siana Tech (1990), the Pirates won 27-17. The previous season Tech forced a tie, 29-29, on a field goal withl6secondsleft.Later,thegame was forfeited by Louisiana Tech for using an ineligible player. Also, both teams faced off in the 1978 Independence Bowl in Shreve- port, La. The Bucs won 35-13 and held the Bulldogs to 12 yards rush- ing. File Photo East Carolina's swim teams are looking forward to another banner year. Head Coach Rick Kobe expects to improve on last season's 10-2 record. Swim teams set for season By Brad Oldham Staff Writer One of the most successful athletic pro- grams here at East Carolina is swimming. Rick Kobe, entering his 12th season as head coach of the swimming teams, is looking to continue that success in the upcoming 1993-1994 sea- son. The Pirates are coming into this season off a 10-2 record from last year. Both the men's and women's teams finished in third place at the CAA championships held in Wilmington. ECU combined to break 21 var- sity and freshman records as a team. "We have a better team mis year than last and we are definitely looking to break more records Kobe said. "We want to move up in the championship meet and I feel like we have the team to do it. Our strong point is depth, along with specialized talent. That's what it takes to win meets and championships Winning the CAA won't be easy for Kobe and his swimmers. ECU brings in a team with only two se- nior girls and five senior guys. The rest of the team is made up of mostly very young swimmers. Don't worry though, because Kobe has recruited a very talented group of first year swimmers. The talentof the freshman swimmerscame through on Oct. 5, when ECU held its annual Pentathlon meet. The meet consists of all the Pirate swimmers-competing in five different events, scoring points for their overall perfor- mance on the day. And what a day it was. Sophomore Jackie Schieder set a new point total record for the women and also set a Pentathlon meet record in the 200 individual medley with a 2:15.08 time. Other records broken from the meet were freshmen Melissa Phillips 100 Fly time 1:01.73 and Lesley Hawleys 100 backstroke time of 1:02.27. Other strong performances from the women were put out by freshmen Christy Winn, Ellen Howard, Beth Browne, Elizabeth Bradnor and Meg Watson. Sophomores Beth Humphrey and Rachel Atkinson also turned out good scores. On the guys side, it was sophomore David Benson leading the way. Freshman Chris Bembenek also had a good out- ing, breaking a pen- tathlon record with a 54.73 time in the 100 backstroke. Se- niors Carlos Ochoa and Ben Soltz, came in third and fourth place, respectively. Freshmen Brian Wall, Alan Pritchett, Ryan Barlow and Erik Griffin also ac- cumulated impres- sive scores on the day. The Pirates obvi- ously have a tough road infrontof them. The men are looking to win their third conference champi- onship, while the women are still working on winning their first. The Dukes of James Madison University are going to be tough in defending their CAA crown, but the tradition of ECU swimming is a strong motivator in continuing future success. East Carolina will hold the Purple-Gold meet on Tuesday, Oct. 19. The team will be divided equally and will compete against each other at the Minges Aquatic Center. The Pirates first opponent will be Virginia Tech on Oct. 30. Rick Kobe Q and A with Tech's Joe Peace By Warren Sumner Staff Writer Louisiana Tech coach Joe Raymond Peace is a perfect ex- ample of someone who is carry- ing the weight of the world on his shoulders. After completion of a 5-6 record in his fifth year as head coach of the Bulldogs, Peace is faced with the task of bringing his program past the .500 mark this year despite returning only five starters from a decep- tively good unit. The Bulldogs may have had more losses than wins last year, but those defeats came at the hands of some of the nation's elite program The unit fell to na- tional champion Alabama by only 13 points and lost to pow- erful Southern Mississippi by only a field goal. Now as this season begins, Peace finds himself in a rebuild- ing process once again. As he prepares to make a trip to Ficklen stadium to face the struggling Pirates, he talked about what his job was like. Q: What is the most frustrat- ing aspect 6f your job? A: I'd have to say that all the Joe Peace things you are looking at in the future of Division I football, the cuts that will be made on programs and such. It's really a tough league to play in. Q: As a nineteen year vet- eran of college coaching, you have seen a great many players come and go. How do the play- ers of the 90s differ from those you coached at the beginning of your ca- reer? A: It's a lot different today. I think that these players are a reflection of our society in general. I think the so- ciety plays a big part in how they do. You have a lot more kids from broken homes today. When I started, about all you had to do was be a football coach. These days, you have to be a coach, a father, a discipli- narian and a psychologist. You have to be all of these things all wrapped up in one. Q: Coach, last year your team was plagued by a number of close losses, where you just couldn't seem to win the game.

Accord ing to Lisa Hadelman, ECU's women's ten- nis team has both. Hadelman, a sophomore, is beginning her sec- ond season with the Lady Pirates this year. "He's Coach Farfour such a good player Hadelman said. "Last year he took us from a losing record in the fall to a win- ning record in the spring A Roswell, Georgia native, Hadelman is a long way from home. She de- cided to attend ECU because of her brother and the medical school. Hadelman's brother came to ECU on a golf scholarship and said he loved it in Greenville. The medi- cal school contributed to Hadelman's decision because she Lisa Hadelman is a nursing major. In high school, a fractured ankle forced her to sit out for a year and a half. She has made up for lost time since then by teach- ing lessons during the summer months.Onceshehascompleted her education and is a registered nurse, Hadelman says she wou Id enjoy teaching private lessons at a club. For Hadelman, finding time to study last year was the biggest adjustment she had to make as a freshman. Be- cause she bal- anced academ- ics and athlet- ics in high school, Hadelman thought the routine would be similar in college.

Sou th Carolina reservequarterback Flake Williamson couldn't figure out why he wasn't playing much k r the Gamecocks. Once he got in, though, East Carolina couldn't figure out a way to stop him. Wil liamson, who relieved Steve Taneyhill in bth halves Saturday, threw a touchdown pass and led a second scoring drive in the Game- cocks'27-3ictoryagainstEastCaro- lina. The redshirt sophomore learned Thursday that he'd play. Before Saturday, he hadn't spent much time on the field for South Carolina (3-3), although he com- pleted the only two passes he threw this season. But when he came on with 8:27 left in the half and South Carolina up 7-0,62307 fans roared with ap- proval. He quickly justified their faith, hittingTerrell Harriswitha 17-yard TD pass in the right comer of the end zone. "I don't know, for some reason they like mea lot said Williamson, whoalso guided a seven-play drive in the fourth quarter that ended on ReedMorton's20-yardfieldgoall welcome that and certainly the cheers get louder if you play well Williamson has heard those cheers a lot, but from the sidelines, watching Taneyhill restore life to a team that began the 1992 season 0-5. The backup is certain he too can be partoftheGamecocks'revitalization. Tmalwaysdisappointed when 1 don't play because I know 1 can do something when I get in there Williamson said. "I try not to let that get to me The two quarterbacks comple- ment each other well, said running back Brandon Bennett, who gained 102 yards rushing to go past the 100- yard mark for the fourth time this season. "Steve is move of a big-play guy, while Blakecan picka teamaparthe said. "I feel comfortable with both of them in the game Williamson finished 4 of 7 for 90 yards. Taneyhill, who threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Chris Alford in the third quarter, was 9 of 16 for 69 yards and got sacked twice. ButSouth Carolina coachSparky Woodsqukklymadeitclear Taneyhill ? who didn't stick around to com- ment after the game ? would keep the starting job he's held the last 12 games. "Steve's our quarterback he said. "I'd been disappointed we hadn'tbeenabletogetBlake in before and demonstrate he is a good quar- terback South Carolina'sdefense, which had failed to demonstrate its skills effectively this season, limited East Carolina to 236 total yards and a 25- yard field goal by Chad Holcomb in the second quarter. Junior Smii gained 135 yards rushing for the Pirates (1-4), who've been outscored 137-32 in their four losses. "I've never been in a coaching situation like this before East Caro- lina coach Steve Logan said. 'Teach, teach, teach, that's all we're doing. We have the talent on this team to play better,it'sjustamatter of putting it all together The Gamecocks, who lost 20-18 to the Pirates a year ago when Marty Simpson missed a pair of field goals in the final seconds, took advantage of East Carolina's poor punting to build a 14-7 half-time lead. Comerback Frank Adams got a piece of Bill Wilson's punt in the first quarter. Joe Troupe caught the ball overhisbackand returned it40yards for a touchdown. "It was planned all week said Adams,whocameinuntouched from Wilson's left side. "What they were doingisjustlettingtheguy run. When I saw that on film, I said 'Yeah, I'm going to block a punt In the second quarter, Toby Cates returned another short punt 20 yards to East Carolina's 19, lead- ing to Williamson's touchdown throw Linebacker Mike Landry set up South Carolina's third touchdown, intercepng?passby freshman Chris Hester and retumingit 12yardstothe Pirates'11.

If NFL fansin Memphis get torootfor a hometown team, they'll be shout- ing for the "Hound Dogs William B.Dunavant, leader of a Memphis group seeking to buy a National Football League expan- sion franchise, announced the name for his hoped-for team Monday night. Business groups in Charlotte, baltimore, St. Louis and Jackson- ville, Fla also are in the competi- tion for two expansion franchises. Dunavant also said the Hound Dogs would be coached by Pepper Rodgers, former coach of the Mem- phisShowboatsof the now-defunct United States Football League. "We're going to be bloodhound dogs Dunavant told a sports booster club. "We're going to be mean, ugly, dirty, nasty, blood- hound hound dogs Dunavant said Steve Ehrhart, former president of the Showboats, would hold thatsame position with the Hound Dogs. Rodgers coached the Show- boats for their two seasons in Mem- phis, 1984 and 1985. Dunavant, a Memphis cotton merchant, owned the team. AftertheUSFLfolded,Rodgers went to work for Federal Express founder Frederick W. Smith, who was trying to buy an NFL franchise. Dunavant took over as leader of that effort in 1991. Smith is an investor in Dunavant's group. The Elvis Presley estate also is an investor and Dunavant said the team's name would link the fran- chise to Presley to aid in promo- tions and souvenir sales. One of Presley biggest early hits relied on the refrain "you ain't nothing but a hound dog Presley died at his Memphis residence, Graceland, in 1977. Rodgers, who serves as a spokesman and adviser for Dunavant, isa former head coachat the University of Kansas, UCLA and Georgia Tech, his alma mater.

(AP) - Despite a medical finding that fa- tigue caused his collapse the sec- ond day of training camp, Charles Barkley is convinced he'll need back surgery someday. Barkley, who plans to play two more seasons, said team physician Richard Emerson approved his plan to put off the operation until retirement. "I don't think I could take a year out of my life ? not at 30 Barkley said Monday after the 140- mile drive from Phoenix to Flag- staff. "I look at how it affected Larry Bird, who's a friend of mine and I can't close it like that Barkley continued. Bird had back surgery in June 1991 and his production for the Boston Celticsdropped sharply the final year of his career. Earlier Monday, Emerson in- jected radioactive ink into Barkley in the last of a cluster of diagnostic techniques. Then he cleared Barkley's return to the team. On Sunday, the tests included magnetic resonance imaging, a CAT-scan and neurological proce- dures. Barkley restricted himself Monday night to rid ing an exercise bicycle, stretching, running and shooting baskets. He said he would not scrimmage or participate in drills "for a couple of days However, Suns trainer Joe Proski and coach Paul Westphal wouldn't rule out Barkley's par- ticipation Friday night in the team's first exhibition game, at home against Golden State. "It will be interesting to see how he feels tomorrow after what he did tonight Proski said. Westphal said Barkley might play a few minutes against the Warriors. "I'm just trying to get him ready for the first game and if he's not ready for the first game, I just want him ready for the playoffs Westphal said. "I'm not going to rush him back into things at all Westphal joked about the value of Barkley, who helped him set a first-year coaching record wi th 62 victories. "I was kind of looking for- ward to coaching without him on the team Westphal said. "The guy's a pain. You know, he doesn't practice very hard and he talks too much. I'm not sure he's an asset The examinations were or- dered after Barkley experienced numbness in his left leg and sprawled full-length following a spirited scrimmage and wind sprints Saturday night. He spent 30 minutes on the floor, partly because Emerson had left the Northern Arizona University cam- pus. A bulging disk in Barkley's back ? first detected in August? was suspected, but Emerson said the numbness wascaused by "mus- cular and respiratory fatigue "The tests reveal the disk is notherniated and there isnonerve injury Emerson said in a state- ment. Headdedthaf'thickeningof the soft tissue and ligament around the nerve canal of the lower left lumbar nerve" occa- sionally puts pressure on the nerve, causing pain. But Barkley said Emerson told him surgery wasn't needed as long as he could play through the pain. Treatment will bea vari- ety of stretching exercises, soft tissue treatments, occasional anti- inflammatory medication and a controlled practice schedule.

But the 25-year-old Gill won't say why he left the up-and-coming Hor- nets. In Charlotte, Gill was charac- terized as a malcontent who didn't want to play second fiddle to Larry Johnson or Alonzo Mourning. There was also talk that he was unhappy playing for coach Allan Bristow. Gil I a lso wanted more money in Charlotte. He had an option to become a restricted free agent af- ter last season and was interested in testing his market value. But Gill's lips are sealed on the exact reasons for his depar- ture. The Sonics are his team now and, as far as he's concerned, it's all working out pretty well in Se- attle. "Don't I look happy?" he asked. And why shouldn't he? Gill signed a seven-year guaranteed $26.6 million contract that was orchestrated by the Sonics to fit under their salary cap. The Sonics sent Eddie Johnson and Dana Barrow, two players who didn't fit their plans, I "hariotte in exchange for him. I he Sonics also gave the Hornets the right to switch first-round picks in the 1994 NBA draft. The Sonics think the trade puts them closer to supplanting three-time NBA champion Chi- cago. Gill knows he won't be the main man with the Sonics. All-Star Shawn Kemp is the No. 1 player in Seattle. And there area lot of other key men such as Gary Payton, Derrick McKey, Ricky Pierce and Sam Perkins. But that's not an issue, Gill says. He just wants to do every- thing he can to help the Sonics win an NBA championship. "I want to be here he said. "I want to finish my career here The Sonics have created a starting job for Gill by moving Pierce into a sixth-man role. It wasa role Pierce filled effectively in Milwaukee before coming to Seattle. So the 6-foot-5 Gill will start in Seattle's backcourt at of f guard opposite point guard Gary Payton. Sonics coach George Karl doesn't think he'll ha veany prob- lems coaching Gill. "I like Kendall Karl said. "I think he's a good person and I thinkhe'sa helluva player. I think he's going to be special The Sonics know it's going to take a while for Gill to blend in 10th Street Ernie Carattini State Inspections ? Brakes ? Tires ?Tune-Ups . Batteries ?

"If we can win, then that will be my justification. I don't want to be a superstar here. AH 1 want to do is contrib- ute and help this team win Gill was the fifth player picked in the 1990 draft. In three seasons in Charlotte, he averaged 16.1 points, with last season's average being 16.9. In the Hor- nets' first trip to the playoffs last season, he averaged 17.3 points. Although he led the Big Ten in scoring in his senior season with 20 points per game for Illi- nois in 1990, he may be a better defensive player in the NBA. He's averaging 1.5 steals per game in his career. "I love to play defense he said. If there's a question about Gill's game, it's his shooting range.

In every way but one, not much has changed. The NBA still boasts big money, a big audience and big thinkers. But as the panic set off by Barkley'sthankfully brief, verv scary stay in a Phoenix hospital proved, the league's supply of real marquee names suddenly seems very small. And for a league so dependent on stars to sell, that could spell big trouble. Since Magic Johnson made his first, stunning announcement of re- tirement in November 1991, Larry Bird and now Michael Jordan have repaired to the sidelines along with him.

Joe Montana his now missed 2 12 of his five games with Kansas City ? he satout the too-narrow 17- 15 win over Cincinnati on Sunday with a pulled hamstring. Given the fragile state of his right elbow, which caused him to miss two seasons with the 49ers, it may keep him fresh for the end of the season. But in most cases, it simply muddles things.

And, of course, there's Bemie Kosarjifted forthe third straight week in favor of Vinny Testaverde and now demoted ? Bill Belichick an- nounced after thegame that Vinny's now the starter. That makes Kosar, who just signed a $27 million, 7-year contract, the world's highest paid backup.

Marshall coach im Donnart has one word to sum up the hoopla that surrounded his last trip to Raleigh, N.Cwherehewasquarterbackfor North Carolina State 26 years ago. "Unbelievable Donnan said. Donnan takes the Thundering Herd (4-1), ranked No. 3 in NCAA Division I-AA, to play Division I-A North Carolina State (3-2) on Satur- dayatCarter-RnleyStadium, where he helped lead the 1967 Wolfpack to the Liberty Bowl. Two seasons ago, Marshall played at North Carolina State and led the llth-ranked Wolfpack late into the fourth quarter before fall- ing 15-14. Donnan said he received at least 95 requests for interviews before that trip and spent about 11 hours giving interviews. "I counted it he said. This time, the Herd coach is having Marshall's sports informa- tion office screen all his calls and arrangea teleconference in the week leading up to the game. Besides Donnan's background at North Carolina State, there is ex- tra interest because Donnan's son, Todd, will start at quarterback in the same stadium where his father played. "I think it's going to be neat said Todd Donnan, who threw for 258 yardsand a touchdown in a 51- 0 rout of VMI last weekend. For some members of the Herd who remain from the 1991 squad, Saturday represents a chance for revenge. "Everybody still talks about that (1991) game s?id senior tight end Casey Hill. "In our minds, we won that game. We just didn't win on the scoreboard The Wolfpack is coming off a 36-34 comeback victory over Texas Tech. It won on an 11-yard touch- down pass as time expired. Still, the Herd knows it's in for a tough game against a Division I-A foe. Last season, in Marshall's last game against a higher-division op- ponent, it was routed 44-21 at Mis- souri. "We're going to have to play the best game of our lives, all 22 players, lights outfor 60 minutes, to have a shot at winning said offen- sive tackle Chris Deaton. The 1991 game is the only pre- vious time Marshall and North Carolina State have played. TEC is now hiring typesetters, (typing experience necessary) What, if anything, will you do differently this season to help reverse this trend? A: Well, nothing really. In last year's schedule we played four teams in the Top 25 and all of them went to play in bowl games and they all won. It is extremely difficult to win when, you have seven road games, even though we came out on top against Baylor. Its always tough when you go to places like West Virginia and Alabama to play. We had 28 seniors last year and went into some of the toughest arenas in college foot- ball to play, but those games would be tough on anyone. Q: Coach, as your program is in a rebuilding stage, you are set to make a trip to Greenville to play another rebuilding pro- gram at ECU. What concerns you about playing the Pirates? A: I'd have to say what con- cerns me the most about play- ing ECU is their defensive speed. They are known as a team that plays hard on both sides of the ball, they have a great tight end and very talented receiv- ers. They could be extremely tough.
