Staff Writer"
Last Thursday night,
Chancellor Eakin kicked off the
first Shared Visions campaign
at the Greenville Country Club.
The Pitt County campaign is the
largest and first to begin, out of
15 regional campaigns in North
Carolina and the Southeast.
Max Ray Joyner, the presi-
dent of Shared Visions, opened
the evening's program with a
short speech concerning Shared
Visions and their goals for ECU.
The program began three years
ago, and it's biggest previous
campaign raised $2.5 million for
the School of Business ? much
less than the $50 million cur-
rent goal, joyner said.
He added that the current
campaign has raised $37 mil-
ECU's way is Inf oHighway
By Jason Williams
Assistant News Editor
ECU is determined to be-
come more than road kill on
North Carolina's new informa-
tion highway, as the School of
Medicine and other sections of
the university will be important
parts of the network.
ECU was one of 106 sites
around the state selected to par-
ticipate in the information high-
way. The sites range from high
schools and community colleges
in rural areas to major research
universities. ECU will offer two
sites initially at the medical school
and in Joyner Library.
"We are at the forefront of
the development of medical ap-
plications for use on the informa-
tion network said David C.
Balch, director of the Center for
Health Sciences Communication
in the ECU School of Medicine.
Balch is currently working on an
application called
"telemedicine in which doctors
can use communications equip-
ment such as telephone lines, mi-
crowave relays and video cam-
eras to examine patients at dis-
tant locations. The Medical
School already has telemedicine
links with sites in Ahoskie, Jack-
sonville and Central Prison in
Raleigh.
"Telemedicine is a leading
application that will drive the
highway Balch said. "ECU is in
an important position because we
are involved in the development
of these applications
ECU and Pitt County Me-
morial Hospital were among the
first to develop an electronic data
system that allows hospitals to
share information about patients'
records, Balch said.
Dr. Diana M. Henshaw, di-
rector of Continuing Education
and Summer School, is coordi-
nating the hookup in Joyner Li-
brary. She is a member of the
N.C. Information Highway
Training Subcommittee and
serves as the chairperson for
ECU's Telecommunications
Committee.
"I think the information
highway is going to be a won-
derful thing she said. "It will
provide advancements to health
care and distance learning, and
will help establish links with
business and industry that we've
never had before
The highway will offer two-

Justice serves ECU student

Rick Lappin, ECU criminal justice
major and scholarship recipient.
Staff Writer
Every year the North Caro-
lina Sheriff's Association awards
10 academic scholarships in the
amount of $2,000 to criminal jus-
tice majors. This year, Richard
"Rick" Lappin Jr a junior at ECU
fromRoxboro,N.C,received this
honor.
Recipients of the scholar-
ships must be criminal justice
majors and have a recommenda-
tion from the sheriff of their
county.
"I recommended Rick be-
cause he has always worked hard
in school, and if anybody wanted
it the scholarship, he did said
Dennis Oakley, the Person County
Sheriff. "Good people deserve
breaks, too
The scholarships are open
to anyone majoring in criminal
justice, but it is helpful if one of
the applicant's parents works for
the sheriff's department. In
Lappin's case, neither of his par-
ents do.
"It was a real surprise to get
the scholarship, because only 10
people get it, and their parents
are usually working for the
sheriff's department Lappin
said.
Although Lappin's parents
did not work for the sheriff, his
father did drive an ambulance.
Through that job, Lappin's father

lion so far. Joyner acknowl-
edged that "the last dollars are
the hardest to raise but he
"feels confident for the rest
Joyner promoted the
Shared Visions campaign by la-
menting ECU's fine points and
its benefits for the surrounding
area. Joyner called ECU a "cul-
tural center
"The location of ECU con-
tributes much to the gradua-
tion rate Joyner said. He
added that many students from
the surrounding area would not
have the educational opportu-
nity otherwise.
Joyner cited ECU as the
"biggest employer east of Ra-
leigh" and said that there is
more building going on now
than ever as proof of ECU's
continued search for excel-
lence. Chancellor Eakin later
set the total amount of current
contruction on campus capital
projects at over $100 million
A short video was shown
following Joyner's opening,
which exposed ECU's tradition
of excellence to those in the au-
dience. In keeping with the
evening's message, the video
highlighted such events as the
$50,000 pledge from the city of
Greenville that got the college
started.
The video's conclusion
also listed Shared Vision's cam-
paign strategies for distinction.
The goals of the campaign list
the endowment, facilities and
annual support as the highest
areas for growth.
Within the endowment,
$26.5 milllion is marked for
three major areas. The first is
student development. Merit-
based scholarships make up
$5 million of that monev,
graduate fellowships $3 mil-
lion, personal development
program for athletes $1 mil-
lion and $500,000 for minor-
ity leadership awards.
The second area desig-
nated for improvement is fac-
ulty enrichment. Under fac-
ulty enrichment, professor-
ships and distinguished pro-
fessorships account for $4.5
million, research initiatives
and teaching enhancement
$1.5 million and endowed lec-
tureships $1.5 million.

area is program enhancement.

Problems abound on campus
By Tina Chiwona
Staff Writer
Across campus, theft and
mutilation hamper the conve-
nience of ECU services, and re-
sult in higher prices and greater
aggravation for students, fac-
ulty and staff.
"Mutilation of materials is
a major problem (at the Joyner
Library) said Gordon Barbour,
the night supervisor. People tear
pages from books, magazines
and periodicals because they
think that they will not get
caught. The reason why this be-
havior occurs is that people do
not want to make their own cop-
ies.
This behavior happens of-
ten, and the library assistants
are alerted of this problem only
when other patrons wish to bor-
row a book or copy certain
pages, only to find that pages
are missing.
"This is very common with
the serials and the periodicals
Barbour said. "It happens on a
daily basis
However, since the warn-
ing sign has been up by the exit,
the number of unchecked mate-
rials have reduced considerably.
"I feel like the sign has
helped so far Barbour said. The
sign was erected last December
and in the summer of '93, a
policy was put in effect that per-
mits the library assistants to
check IDs and take down a
patron's ID number each time
the theft protection system is
activated.
Van Vanhorne, a student
assistant, agrees with Barbour
and said, "With the policy of
recording names and ID num-
bers of the students of patrons
caught taking unchecked mate-
rials, the frequency has gone
down
According to Vanhorne,
even though it is not a big prob-
lem, it is still there. Students try
to take out magazines and other
periodicals in hope of not get-
ting caught.
People attempt to do this
by sneaking out materials that
are small enough to slip into
their notebooks. Again
Vanhorne emphasizes that,
"they believe that they will not
get caught, when in fact they

Devastation cripples war-torn Bosnia-Herzegovina
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-
Herzegovina (AP) ? Victims of a
weekend of carnage were hur-
riedly buried today because the
cemeteries were exposed to snip-
ers and shell fire.
Gravediggers laid the cof-
fins of many of the 68 bombing
victims in the ground at dawn.
Mourners were only able to spend
a few minutes in the mist at the
gravesites before leaving. The soc-
cer field-turned-cemetery on the
north side of Sarajevo is danger-
ously exposed to Serb positions.
The U.N. chief has asked for
the authority to order NATO
bombing runs on Serb mortar
positions around Sarajevo, al-
though President Clinton played
down the prospect of retaliation
for the shelling Saturday that
killed 68 and wounded 200 in the
deadliest attack on the Bosnian
capital in the 22-month-old war.
In an apparent policy shift,
Britain todav called for "more
muscular action than hitherto by
the United Nations" to end the
killings in Sarajevo. "Its purpose
must be not merely to punish or
retaliate but to improve the situa-
tion in Sarajevo said an official
from Prime Minister John Major's
office. He spoke onlv on condi-
tion of anonymity.

Students pay to keep library open
The Student Government Association at Chabot College in
Pleasonton, Calif has donated $12,754 to keep the library open an
additional 10 hours every week. The hours were cut in 1993 as a
budget reduction. The donation will allow the library to pay staff to
keep the facility and computer labs open until 9 p.m. Monday
through Thursday, instead of closing at 7:30 p.m and to resume
Saturday service. "Budget cuts have affected not only our fees and
opportunities as students, but some of the valued services we may
have taken for granted, such as the library-learning resource cen-
ter said Luis Molina, president of the Associated Students of
Chabot College. Last year, the student government at Solano
Collegemadeadona tion to keep open sever al sections of university
transfer courses that had been scheduled for elimination because of
budget cuts.
No news is not always good news
The student newspaper at Ferris State University published a
nearly blank edition to protest budget cuts that would eliminate the
school's journalism department. The staff of the bi-weekly paper,
The Torch, published the edition late last year to show students what
the university will be like without a journalism program. The 12-
page paper contained only two small cartoons denouncing the cuts
and an editorial explaining the blank pages. The paper's opinion
editor, Ron Woycehoski, said the edition was published to express
dismay about the university cutting $7.9 million from its budget by
eliminating 17 academic programs. According to Woycehoski, the
paper received some critcism about their action, but response from
students has been mostly positive.
Professor receives mail bomb
Investigators are still working to determine who sent a bomb
to the home of a Harvard University Medical School faculty mem-
ber in December, authorities said. Dr. Paul Rosenberg, an assistant
professor of neurology at the Medical School, unwittingly averted
the detonation of two six-inch pipe bombs contained in a package
sent to his home in Newton, Mass The Harvard Crimson reported.
On Dec. 19, after Rosenberg and his wife returned from a vacation,
he cut open the top of a box with a knife rather than opening the
flaps, which would have activated the bombs. When he saw a metal
cylinder and wires in the package, he and his wife ran out of the
house and he called police. The state fire Marshall's office disarmed
both of the bombs. Police said the explosion "would have killed
anyone in the immediate vicinity

"Definitely, people try and take
books out, but take out maga-
zines more. In fact, magazines
are more of a daily event
McGlohon said, "while all oth-
ers are sporadic
McGlohon adds that even
when people are studying at the
library and get up to use the rest
rooms, they return to find that
their books and bags have been
stolen.
The assistants at Joyner Li-
brary want people to know that
if they are caught with un-
checked or mutilated materials
when leaving the library, seri-
ous measures will be taken. The
Warning sign is there to discour-
age such unfavorable behavior
from any patron using the li-
brary.
This problem of theft does
not apply only to Joyner Library,
but also to other parts of cam-
pus. At the Student Store, text
book theft is a serious concern.
The store installed a security
camera last Spring.
"The camera helps, espe-
cially when there are a lot of
people shopping said Mike
Coston, the store manager.
"With the camera you can see
the actual crime taking place and
the person he said. The store is
hoping to install a new security
system that will sound an alarm
when someone tries to exit with
unpaid items.
Stolen books are usually
sold back to the book stores in
hope of acquiring some quick
cash. However, a valid picture
ID is required to sell books back
to the stores.
Students have tried to sell
back books and could not when
their IDs did not match their face.
"If it doesn't look like them, we
won't take it Coston said.
Reporting stolen books is
an action that the student store
encourages. Students have had
their books stolen while shop-
ping in the store and Coston

so that when the book is sold
back, they will know who sold
it.
"I have caught people
stealing text books, pencils and
answer sh ts, and those who
are caught go to the Dean of
Students office said Coston.
The store does have the power
of having the thieves arrested.
Approximately $27,000 is
lost annually due to theft at the
Wright Place. According to Tony
Sloan, the location manager, the
WP loses about $120 a day.
"People steal anything!
They eat doughnuts and pizzas

lower price Sloan said.
Another problem is that
students actually pocket goods.
Employers have seen baked
goods and bottled drinks
quickly stashed into nap sacks
and big heavy coats. There have
been times when other students,
staff and faculty have alerted
the managers at the Wright Place
that they have seen someone
stealing or eating something and
is in the process of leaving.
"That's the most common
way of finding out that people
are stealing, because at the time
we are usually very busy said
Rodrick Parker, the location su-
pervisor.
Parker says tha t the Wright
Place tries to prevent further
theft by stationing it's peopleat
the front 90 percent of the time.
"Some people try and walk out
with a whole meal. They jump
over chains or pass the cash reg-
isters said Parker.
In order to sell certain
items, the Wright Place has to
display them for high visibility
purposes. However people need
to know that all these unfavor-
able actions fall under the de-
frauding law and people can be
detained if necessary, Sloan
said.
"We are trying to provide
a service with a huge variety of
products to satisfy our custom-
ers, but theft only results in
higher prices Sloan said.

United Nations: peacekeepers to Bosnia
ryoE I 'blow THfS

lOUTTA He&
NATO faces quite a challenge. Actually,
NATO's been facing the challenge all along,
they've just chosen not to step up to it.
In Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Saturday,
Serbian shelling killed 68 and wounded 200 in
the deadliest attack on the capital since the war
began. The siege, which has been on-going for 22
months, has brought about many a furrowed
brow with leaders and everyday citizens alike.
The United Nations and NATO have
avoided a confrontation while threatening air
strikes for more than a year now. Many people
have reacted to this, questioning how the world
powers could just stand by and watch the hor-
rors without interfering. After an attack like the
one this weekend however, even some of the
most pacifistic are asking if steps should be
taken to try and end the fighting. Even with that,
it seems as if the conclusion is still split.
The U.N. Secretary-General Boutros
Boutros-Ghali asked for the power to order
NATO bombing runs on Serb mortar positions
around Sarajevo. Clinton played down the pros-
pect, saying, "The appropriate thing now is to
see if this horrible incident can be the spur to a
vigorous effort to a peace agreement. That's
what we ought to focus on now Boutros-Ghali
wants NATO members to give him permission
to call for bombing runs "against artillery or
mortar positions in or around Sarajevo which
are responsible for attacks on civilian targets
NATO foreign ministers will meet today in
an emergency session to consider the bombing
request.
The solution to a problem like Bosnia is not
an easy one. What leaders must be careful with
is getting "caught up in the action so to speak.
When something as chaotic as war comes along,
these leaders of the world (NATO, the United
Nations) must take it upon themselves to ratio-
nally discuss viable solutions in a way that the
warring factions cannot. They must become the
peacekeepers and must support that ideal to the
furthest extent.
What has been known to happen, more than
once, is for these leaders to become trigger happy
and jump into a seeming solution before it can be
rationally thought out. In the case of Bosnia, while
it is true that fighting has gone on for an excess of
22 months, there have been no real plans as to how
intervening will stop the killing. Senator Phil
Gramm, a Republican from Texas, agrees with
this line of thinking: "Nobody in the military has
told me that bombing would be decisive
Coupled with the numerous views within
the U.N. as to how to end the fighting, the end
result is an indecisiveness that most apparent to
the Serbs, who use it to their advantage. Since the
war began in April 1992, the U.N. has sent in
peacekeeping forces, authorized a naval blockade
and economic sanctions on Serbia, as well as set up
a war-crimes tribunal and authorized NATO jets
to enforce a U.N. no-fly zone over Bosnia. None
seem to have helped.
Continuing on this path of sanctioning means
that peacekeeping forces will have to remain to
protect those that cannot protect themselves. Just
how much further the U .N. takes it will be decided
upon in one way or another. Hopefully these
decision makers will remember that statesman-
ship is all about keeping a clear line of vision on the
world's problems.

Lifting trade embargo manipulates emotions
Environmental education radical in its scope
Since my fiance has an 11-
year-old sister, occasionally I get
?te'see what sort of silliness the
public school system is teaching
these days. However, I was not
aware, until reading a report by
Jonathan Adler, an environmen-
tal policy ana- MHMMHBHi
lyst, how silly
gome of this
stuff hasgotten,
especially
about environ-
mental issues.
Most class-
room materials
areprovidedby
the radical en-
vironmental
groups, whose political agenda in-
fluences the information theysup-
ply. This is roughly equivalent to
allowing most sex education ma-
terials to besupplied by Operation
Rescue. There are many big envi-
ronmental myths being pushed
on the youth of America.
Recycling is always good. Re-
cycling is sweeping America's
schools (including ECU). Guides
like the EPA's "Let's Reduce and
Recycle" teaches elementary
school children that recycling re-
duces pollution and saves natural
resources, energy, money and land
fill space. The truth is that recy-
cling can actually be worse for the
environment. Bleaching recycling
paper causes more water pollu-
tion than bleaching virgin pulp.
Cleaning cloth diapers uses mas-
sive amounts of water, energy and
detergent. Recydingpaper willnot
even save many trees. About 87
percent of all paper in the United
States is from trees specifically
planted for that purpose by the
paper industry. Thus recycling
paper may actually reverse the
trend of an increase in U.S. forest-
land of the past 40 years.
Plastic is bad. Children are told
that paper is better for the environ-
ment than plastic, that "plastic foam
is made with chemicals that make
the ozone hole bigger (50 Simple
Things Kids Can Do to Save the Earth)
Plastics are attacked because they
MaHMMHHMi an be diffi-
cult to recycle.
The truth is that
recycling can
actually be worse
for the
environment.
Yet this non-
biodegrad-
abilityisapro-
tectionfor hu-
man health.
Plastic is also
preferablebe-
causeitcanbe
produced
with less than
one-tenth of the energy of other ma-
terials.
Contrary to popular opinion,
the production of polystyrene has
not required theuseof chlorofluoro-
carbons (CFCs) for years, and thus
poses no threat to the ozone layer.
John Ruston of the Environmental
DefenseFundadmitted "Idon'tthink
that we have strong evidence that
one is better than the other
We produce too much garbage.
Many texts state that we are facing a
garbage crisis, that we are running
out of places to dump our trash.
However, should landfilling be de-
sired, there is ample space for our
trash. Research by Resources for the
Future has demonstrated that all of
the solid waste produced in America
in the next 1,000 years could easily fit
in a landfill less than one-tenth the
size of the United States. Also, new
technology is discovering how to
convert trash into energy, further
reducing the need for landfills.
Acid rain. Students are repeat-
edly told that acid rain is killing fish
and trees. Butthecongressional-com-
missioned $700 mill ion study by the
National Acid Precipitation Assess-
ment Program concluded that not
only is it not a problem for eastern
forests, it actually helps provide ni-
trogen, an important nutrient.
Air pollution is growing worse.
This Planet is Mine states that "the
airpollutionproblemsarehereand
they aregmwingatanalarming rate
There is almost no recognition that,
by most measurements, air quality is
improving. According to EPA data,
ground-level ozone (smog) is de-
clining significantly in most urban
areas.
Global warming. Books like Tfie
Greenhouse Effect: Life on a Warmer
Planet state thatscientistsbelieve that
theworld'sfoodsupplywilldwindle
away, and entire islands be flooded.
It is put forward as scientific fact that
global warming is a threat tociviliza-
tion. But even a poll of scientists
conductedbyGreenpeacefound that
more climatologists felt that there
was no crisis presented by the cur-
rent situation.
Tlieozone layer. This is theother
"threat" whichenvironmentalistsare
using to try to scare our children,
who are told that skin cancer and
cataracts will soon increasedramati-
caify. Even Vice President Gore said
that we should teach our children to
fear the sky. Children, and the rest of
us, are never told that even a worst
case scenario of a 10 percent deple-
tion of the ozone would result in a
rise of UV-B radiation to the same
levels one sees 100 miles closer to the
equator, or that some upper atmo-
sphere ozone readings in the 80s
were higher than those in the 50s.
Maintainingour environment
is important and should be taught in
the public school system. That does
not mean, however, that children
should be indoctrinated with theo-
ries and halt-truths. Children should
most definitely not be exposed the
the sort of virulent anti-progress
message espoused by most of these
radical environmental groups.
Last Thursday, President
Clinton announced that the 19-year-
old trade embargo against Vietnam
would be lifted as an attempt to gain
further knowledge about the 2,238
U.S. servicemen still listed at "miss-
ing in action And, oh yeah, it will
also help to reduce our $115 billion
trade deficit. Well, well. Will the real
President Clinton, with the real rea-
son for lifting this trade embargo,
please stand?
Is the President really trying to
spoon F" :d the American public this
line of crap? I mean, c'mon. After 19
years, some supreme being of Viet-
nam finally says, "Okay, okay. You
guys lift the trade embargo, and we'll
tell you all about the MIA-POWs
and we agree? Please.
Vietnam officials have tried for
years to tell the American people
that they are so busy trying to find
their own 330,000 MlAs that they
cannot possibly locate our 2300. The
whole reason for America's involve-
ment in Vietnam is to this day so
controversial, but a fact that seems
more evident is that some of our
own fighting heroes were indeed
shot down or buried and it is time to
accept this dreadful fate and move
on.
President Clinton has given
several excellent reasons for lifting
this tradeembargo, and I believe the
American public is mature and wise
enough to concur. First, lifting the
embargo would help the U.S. to de-
crease its $115 billion trade deficit,
because until now, most American
products have been smuggled into
Vietnam or purchased from other
third world countries which do not
have trade embargoes with the US
Also, Vietnam is rich in natural re-
sources, including a South China
Sea oil field that oil-giant Mobile
discovered in 1975 and hopes to be
able to explore and drill. Finally,
American big businessman, James
Rockwell, chimes in that "lifting the
embargo will assist in the effort to
find our MlAs because the more
Americans on the ground, the better
our chances for finding out exactly
' what happened
Okay, Jimmy, so are you say-
ing thatafter 16-hour days of negoti-
ating multi-billion dollar deals with
a poverty-stricken country, you and
your staff are going to don a pair of
cammiesand go wandering through
the brush and bamboo in hopes of
re-enacting a Chuck Norris survi val
search? Really
So far, however, it seems we
are making a sound investment
based on sound advice. Pretty safe,
huh? Well, perhaps not. With any
business venture come business
risks. Linda Lim, the editor of the
Journal of Asian Business says "there
is no gold mine just waiting to be
tapped in Vietnam. Since the U.S.
held out much longer than countries
such as Japan, France and Germany,
just getting established among the
many more experienced competi-
tors will be difficult
Yet, with thereasonsPresident
Clintonhasoutlined,Americanbusi-
ness is not going to resist the tempta-
tion. So good for them, and us.
However, President Clinton
can t let it end there because, well,
uh, he's the President, and try as he
must, his goal is to satisfy as many as
possible. So he brings in the big,
dangling piece of meat to tease
the MIA-POW families in their
hungry quest for truth. Many of
these families say President
Clintonhasnow takenaway their
only bit of leverage for forcing
Vietnam to disclose evidence of
MIA-POWs. To this, President
Clinton redefines leverage by
withholding "most favored na-
tion" status, full diplomatic rela-
tions, the exchange of ambassa-
dors and low tariffs.
Oh,pooh,pooh,B.C!What
about the idea of reestablishing
the embargo if this long-awaited
light of truth does not surface?
Which it will not, and which is
why a compromising claim like
this was not offered.
By the time an action like
that would emerge, American
businesses will have already been
established, the deficit will be
dropping and jobs will havebeen
secured. Try telling a few billion
thatthesepositivedevelopments
have to end so as to cradle a
couple thousand. The country
would be in an uproar.
So, Mr. Clinton, job well
done,kinda. Ibelieveif you want
to lift this trade embargo for the
profit-hungry businessmen and
reduce our trade deficit, fine.
Most Americans will agree that
in the long run, we will prosper.
But don't try to thrust an old,
crusty pacifier into our mouths
so that we will stop bawling for
truth by telling us that this move
will eventually uncover all the
secrets of the MIA-POWs.
Letters to the Editor
To the Editor.
The 3 February 1994 edition of Vie East Carolinian
contained a letter written by Thomas W. Blue. In this
letter Mr. Blue correctly pointed out that Walter B. Jones
Jr Republican candidate for the 3rd Congressional Dis-
trict, is not an attorney, nor has he ever attended law
school. What Mr. Blue failed to point out is that Mr. Jones
has never claimed to be an attorney, or to have attended
law school.
Mr. Jones voted for the plan that changed the lines
of the 1st Congressional District. Mr. Jones voted for the
redistricting plan only after the plan which he favored
was rejected. And then Mr. Jones voted for the plan only
after he submitted amendments that would keep his
hometown of Farmville from being split into two sepa-
rate districts.
Mr. Blue attempts to portray Mr. Jones as a liberal.
On this point Mr. Blue is obviously confused, misin-
formed, or does not know how to identify a liberal. A
To the Editor:
Mr. Blue has little knowledge of the United
StatesConstitution,especiallyArticleI,SectionIl,second
paragraph, which reads, "No person shall be a Repre-
sentative who shall not have attained to the age of
twenty-five years, and been seven years a citizen of the
United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an
inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen
Walter B. Jones Jr. did submit an amendment and
voted for the Congressional district plan for NorthCaro-
lina to (A) keep Pitt County in two U.S. Congressional
districts instead of three and (B) to keep the town city of
Farmville, his hometown, and other voting precincN in
one district instead of splitting the Farmville voting
townshipintotwodifferentdistrictsand precincts. Tobe
honest, the districts layouts are politically pornographic.
Many citizens of the Old North State both Democrats
and Republicans truly think that the N.C General As-
sembly hired several schizophrenics to draw these con-
gressional district lines.
Mr. Blue needs to re-research Jones Jrs voting
record on all issues. Walter B.JonesJr. hasnot hired some
simple review of Mr. Jones' voting record from his
days in the North Carolina House will prove Mr.
Blue wrong here.
Mr. Blue is also confused, misinformed, or
simply lying about several other things. Mr. Jones has
not received contributions from labor unions. It is
impossible for any challenger to receive PAC funds.
The Congressional club lias not hired a consultant for,
or donated any funds to, Mr. Jones.
Mr. Blue is, as I have pointed out, very con-
fused about the record of Mr. Jones. In such a short
letter it is impossible for me to properly address all of
the falsehoods that Mr. Blue has stated. However, if
he would like to discuss the record of Mr. Jones, learn
to identify a liberal, or discuss any of the other issues
surrounding this campaign, I am readily available!
Tony W. Joyner
Junior
Political Science
high priced Republican consultant from the Con-
gressional Club to run his campaign. If I remember
correctly, on Friday, January 14,1994, you did not
bother to listen to Walter B. Jones Jrs announcement
speech on the Pitt County Courthouse steps because
of your constant and rude behavior.
Mr. Blue, if you had listened, you would have
heard that Walter Jones Jr. was asked by many citi-
zens to run in the Third U.S. Congressional district
(Jones Jr. has stacks of letters to prove it). Also, Jones
Jr. clearly stated that he lives in the First U.S. Congres-
sional district and that he was offered an apartment
in the City of Greenville for $10.00 a month, but he
made it known by stating, "That is not what Walter B.
Jones Jr. stands for
Mr. Blue, if you had paid close attention to his
speech, you might have been more knowlegeable
abou t Jones Jr. 's voting record and his campaign but
you decided to lower your own reputation instead.

Mardi Gras celebration takes place at ECU

Staff Writer
Mardi Gras season is upon us
once again and the great celebra-
tion that has taken place in the streets
of NewOrleansforover 135 years is
coming to ECU for the second con-
secutive year.
Mardi Gras, which is French
for "Fat Tuesday refers to the
single-day culmina tion of the carrti-
valseason. TheMardiGrascelebra-
tion in New Orleans is always sched-
uled 46 days before Easter. This
means that the season of merriment
in New Orleans begins annually on
Jan. 6 and ends at midnight on Fat
Tuesday. During this season, orga-
nizations known as krewes hold
their own masquerade balls, pa-
rades and other celebrations. The
carnival season leads up to the
Catholic season of Lent, which be-
gins on Ash Wednesday. The name
"Fat Tuesday" comes in because,
during Lent, Catholics do not eat
IFC makes new changes, reaches goal
By Laura Jackman
Staff Writer
The Interfraternity Council
(IFC) is only one month into its
new term, but it is already achiev-
ing a goal that was set up last
December. Together with Career
Services, IFC is implementing a
mentor program in hopes of bring-
ing alumni and pledges closer to-
pher.
The idea for the program
stemmed from the fact that there
isn't much involvement from fra-
ternity alumni outside of mon-
etary donations.
The way the mentor program
works is that all new pledges from
every fraternity will be paired up
with alumni within their frater-
nity. In addition to the fraternity
mentors, pledges receive big
brothers who are current ECU stu-
dents.
"The objective is to give
pledges a more experienced view
of Greek life while providing some
direction on how to achieve their
individuals goals said John
Ezzell, IFC president.
Pledges will be required to
contact their mentors and ask a
series of questions pertaining to
the graduates' lives during and
following college. The mentor
should be seen as a source of first-
hand knowledgeof lifeafter ECU.
Career Services director, Dr.
Jim Westmoreland, hopes the pro-
gram will make a big difference
for alumni, fraternities and stu-
dents as a whole. "We are hoping
to create a network that will branch
outtootherorganizationsatECU
said Westmoreland. "So many
good things can happen from this
program
Colonial Taverns discussed by UNC-W professor
By Daniel Witis
Staff Writer
1 On Friday, Feb. 11, at
11:00 a.m. "Bit Of History" Lec-
ture Series visits Colonial Tav-
erns. UNC-W history professor
Dr. Alan Watson will perform
"More Than Just a Bed and Break-
fast: The Role of Taverns in Colo-
nial Society"
Colonial Taverns has pro-
vided people with food, lodging
and drink. They also offer a place
where people can meet and com-
pare gossip. In certain circum-
stances, taverns were even used
as post offices for the commu-
nity, and many times they offered
a forum for political discussion.
Most travelers
have discovered that
taverns differ greatly in
quality. Some provide
a primitive or crude at-
mosphere, while others
provide laid back cozy
surroundings.
Dr. Watson has taught at
UNC-W for the last 23 years. He
has also written several books and
articles such as Society in North
r
CapiiFi-ar
MUSEUM
Carolina, The North Carolina Expe-
rience: An Interpretive and Docu-
mentary History and A History of
Neiv Bern and Craven Counties. Dr.
Watson is a member
of the North Carolina
Historical Commis-
sion, and the N.C. Na-
tional Advisory Com-
mittee.
The "A Bit Of
History "lecture series
is scheduled on the second Friday
of every month. It provides a
humourous look at North Caro-
lina and lower Cape Fear History.
Lectures are free and open to the
public.
Cape Fear Museum is lo-
cated at 814 Market Street,
Wilmington, N.C. Museum hours
are Tuesday through Saturday 9
a.m. through 5 p.m and Sunday 2
to 5 p.m. Admission is $2.00 for
adults, $1.00 for children 5-17, col-
lege students with valid I.D. and
senior citizens. Admission is free
to children under five and mem-
bers of the Cape Fear Museum
Association. The first day of each
month, and the first and third Sun-
days are considered free days.

This music is vaguely familiar.
It sounds like the sort of music
one might encounter upon entering
Alfredo's on a cold, rainy Tuesday
night. Its flavor is guitar-angst, alter-
native rage, industrial core. Picture
yourself with a pitcher and greasy
pizza and you're looking out onto a
lonelyGreenville highway. There isa
fluorescent glare on the window and
orange neon pierces your peripheral
vision YouhavebeenwatchingCNN
all day and have talked to no one.
This picture is the mood, head-
ache and disillusionment that de-
scribes Course of Empire's music on
their second album, Initiation. The
sound is fundamental, which is why
it is this reviewer's opinion that most
twenty-somethings willidentify with
it.
The first few songs are tiring be-
cause they melodically and philo-
sophically drone with messages like:
"this is the voice that lives in your
head these are the years you've
taken to bed open your arms andl'll
give them to you we're all in the
chopping grounds The fifth song,
"Apparition virtually kicks the
music to you, and the experience be-
gire.StrikmgresemblaiKetothestyles
of Pearl Jam, T.S.O.L. and Ministry
that occurred in the earlier songs dis-
appears. With "Apparition an au-
rhenticsoundemerges.Ithasaslower
tempo and conveys a haunting feel-
ing of dread rather than thecellar-like
feelingof a typical, dark, underground
club.
The band begins to go off on an
instrumental tangent, but it is un-
clear where or when since there are
no songbreaks. The instrumental
tracks are futuristic, forbidding and
hypnotic, but they are also thought-
provoking. Each song builds upon
the last and creates a powerful, col-
lective force of violently reactive
music.
Enoughdescribingthe album?
go out and experience it. But be
warned: The vibe is disturbing. As
the song "Infested" states, "the oil
oozes out, into the veins and out of
the mouth look Darwin straight in
the eye; he says 'evolve or die
Imagine the sonic dimension of these
words. Nuff' said.

Highlights boast Python
funnyman John Cleese
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP)?
He is acclaimed as England's premier
funn vman, he has starred on the clas-
sic "Monty Python" and "Fawlty
Towers" TV series, he wrote and
starred in the hit movie A Fish Qilled
Wanda and he won an Emmy for a
"Cheers" episode.
Yet John Cleese may be best-
known in the United States for his
silly TV commercials.
"They seem to play those
Magnavox commercials endlessly
he observed. "I get in cabs, and the
drivers say, 'Oh, not you again
"I think I know why peopleseem
to know me more from the commer-
cials. They play a lot on the football
broadcasts. So they get to a whole
audience (hat a lot of my stuff hasn't
gotten to. I had a level of notoriety
here that was very nice. Wanda raised
it a lot. But the commercials have
been extraordinary
The towering comedian was here
to receive the Jack Oakie Award for
Comedy in Motion Pictures, a charity
dinner for the Screen Actors Guild
Foundation. HerecalledseeingOakie
forthe first time in 1957 when he went
to London as a student to play in a
football game.
"I happened to have a free after-
noon, and I went to see Vie Great
Dictator, he said. "I stayed through
the movie three times. I haven't seen
it since, but I still remember Oakie as

Cleese is writing another Fish
Called Wanda, but not a sequel. There
willbedifferentcharactersandanew
story with the same cast ? Kevin
Kline, JamieLeeCurtis, Michael Palin
and himself.
Many TV viewerscherish Cleese
as the churlish hotel proprietor in
"Fawlty Towers which he and his
first wife, Connie Booth, wrote and
appeared in during the 1970s. They
have been rerun endlessly since.
Cleeseearned a law degree from
Cambridge University, but his work
with the Cambridge Footlights, an
amateur stage group, led to appear-
ances in several BBC comedy shows
including "Monty Python's Hying
Circus
The 1969 series was exported to
the United States and introduced
American viewers to the absurd and
irreverent dead pan humor of Cleese,
Palin, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Terry
Gilliam and the late Graham
Chapman.
The TV program spun off a se-
ries of Python stage shows, books,
records and films that served as
launching pads for solo careers for
the troupe's members.
Although he won an Emmv in
1987, for his guest performance as a
psychiatrist on the NBC-TV series

marily as a writer ? and, he has a

meat until Easter. Therefor, Mardi
Gras is celebrated as a feast before
the fasting begins.
. Perhaps, the backbone of the
Mardi Gras celebration is carnival
Krewe. A krewe is aterm that refers
to the Carnival organizations in
New Orleans who participate as
groups in the carnival and Mardi
Gras celebrations. The clubs are
chartered as non-profit groups and
are usually involved in charitable
work. It is a tradition in New Orleans
that each krewe holds its own pa-
rade. The Mardi Gras parade char-
acterizes Mardi Gras celebration and
serves as a showcase for the various
krewes. The involvement by
Krewes in floats and costumes lends
a real carnival atmosphere to the
festivities. Parades normally fol-
low a standard format with the
captain of the carnival at the head of
the parade with the King, Queen
and Royal Court on their own floats
following the captain.
There is no overall theme for
Mardi Gras, but each individual
parade depicts a specific subject.
The themes depicted by the nu-
merous parades staged in New
Orleans since 1857 have included
history, children's stories, legends,
geography, famous people, enter-
tainment, mythology and litera-
ture. The official theme for the
1994 Mardi Gras celebration in
NewOreleans is "Lady Luck" and
will be used for the East Carolina
parade as well.
The krewe floats, which are
the most important part of the
parade, may reflect the krewes
theme for that year. Krewe mem-
bers are masked and costumed in
a manner that illustrates the over-
all parade theme and the indi-
vidual float title, keeping in mind
the official colors of purple, gold
and green. Although krewes have
great flexibility, float designs and
costumes tend to be very faithful

Two Masters'
begins Thursday
By Joe Horst
Special to The East Carolinian
Elvis, Beavis ana Butthead
and the Marx Brothers. Sound
like too much MTV on top of too
much cold pizza and warm beer?
As a matter of fact, it's just a taste
of wha t you might see this week-
end if you watch the East Caro-

"The Servant of Two Masters
Written by Carlo Goldoni,
"The Servant of Two Masters"
opens Thursday, Feb. 10 and runs
until Feb. 15. The curtain rises
nightly at 8 p.m with the excep-
tion of a 2 p.m. matinee on Sun-
day, Feb. 13.
John Shearin, director of
"The Servant of Two Masters
calls the play, "a zany comedy, a
riotous farce The story centers
around three sets of sweethearts
and their comical antics as they
strive for attention. One perfect
example of the hilarity in store is
the couple of Florindo and
Beatrice.
Florindo meets Beatrice
while she is disguised as a man.
Thinking that this man?who is
in fact, Beatrice ? is a rival for
Beatrice's love, the stage is set
right off the bat for comedy
hijinks and laughter that is sure

Set in 18th century Italy,
Shearin states that he has mod-
ernized the play for today's
audiences. "I've adapted the
play into a modern American
colloquial idiom Shearin
said. "There are a lot of mod-
ern, contemporary references
in the piece. We're trying to
capture the spirit of the
comedia, not have it as a mu-
seum piece
Shearinstates that the play
has "bawdy" references, but
that nothing is present that
should keep young children
away. "There's a lot of sex com-
edy in here, but nothing that I
think anybody would construe
as 'dirty I'm bringing my

Film enters Oscar race
(AP)-The Scent of Green Papaya,
Vietnam's first entry in the Acad-
emy Awards, is a luxurious and
sensual film that gently and slowly
reveals its beauty and its tender-
ness, almost as slowly and as deli-
riously as a ripening fruit.
A homage of sorts to the
strength and serenity of women,
this isa lush, lush effort thatsoothes
the eye while stirring the soul. Di-
rector Tran Anh Hung imbues his
first fea hire-length film with a subtle
dignity while sparing no pain in
documenting the lonely life of a
Vietnamese servant girl.
It's hard to measure this work
with Western-film barometers. Plot?
There really isn't any. Character de-
velopment? There's little. Dia-
logue? It's spare and that's be-
ing generous.
What it does offer is a visual
testimony to the rituals that de-
fine the complex order of Viet-
namese hierarchy. Master and ser-
vant, husband and wife, man and
woman, parent and child, all find
their layers pulled away and ex-
amined.
It's 1951 and a 10-year-old
peasant girl named Mui has
walked all day to the home of her
new employer in Saigon, where
she is to work as a servant.

Winter Olympics gearing up in Lillehammer in four days
(AP) ? Let the Games begin.
Please.
The Olympic flame won't be lit
for another four days. Hopefully,
the torch-bearing ski-jumper will
land unsinged.
The Winter Games have had
enough tragedy and turmoil al-
ready.
An Olympic truce adopted in a
United Nations resolution has been
ignored in Bosnia and Northern Ire-
land.
The International Olympic
Committee scolded the Norwegian
media Sunday for a "negative atti-
tude" toward the IOC and its presi-
dent, Juan Antonio Samaranch.
In the United States, Nancy
Kerrigan and Tonya Hardingcooled
their skates while the controversy
simmered over whether Harding
should be allowed to compete in
the figure skating competition.
In suburban Cleveland, the
younger brother of Olympic ice
dancer Elizabeth Punsalan told po-
lice he stabbed his father to death.
She is expected to arrive in
Lillehammer on Thursday.
There is more:
? Austria's Ulrike Meier, a
two-time world champion in the
super-giant slalom and medal fa-
vorite, was killed in a World Cup
race in Germany last month.
? On Oct. 29, a gang of young
neo-Nazis in Oberhof, Germany,
harassed black American luger Rob-
ert Pipkins and beat up his white
teammate, Duncan Kennedy.
? The coach of the German
luge team, Sean Lepp, lost his leg
Dec. 17 when he slipped onto the
track in Winterberg, Germany, and
was struck by an oncoming sled
driven by an American woman.
? A hero of the host country,
cross-country skier Vegard Ulvang,
thinks his brother Ketil was killed.
Ketil Ulvang disappeared while jog-
ging in October and his body hasn 't
been found. Vegard Ulvang will try
to add to the three gold medals and
one silver he won at the 1992 Olym-
pics.
In Bosnia, murder is a daily
occurrence. But nothing in the 22-
month siege of Sarajevo, host of the
1984 Winter Games, could com-
pare with the 68 people killed Sat-
urday when a shell fell in the city's
central marketplace.
On Sunday, five members of
Bosnia's bobsled and luge teams
glued their eyes to a television in
the comfort of an athlete's lounge.
The screen showed the blood and
bodies left by the attack.
"I feel pain in my stomach
Nizar Zaciragic said, watching a
victim dragged away. "I feel help-
less and humiliated
"I feel a lot of revenge. I want to
make it even luger Verona
Marjanovic said. "If I'm not an ath-
lete, I could have been in the mar-
ketplace . I could have been killed
The massacre occurred the day
an Olympic truce ? well-
intentioned but toothless ? took
effect until March 5.
Armenia's president told
Samaranch his country will respect
the truce. The presidentof Angola's
national Olympic committee ex-
pressed hope the war in his coun-
try would end soon.
But in Northern Ireland, four
soldiers were injured in an IRA
mortar attack on their patrol ve-
hicle early Sunday.
Later in the day, the IOC said
Samaranch had met with leaders
of Bosnia-Herzegovina's national
Olympic committee to express his
condolences. He was thanked for
support given to Bosnian athletes.
The athletes.
It's time for them to reclaim
the spotlight and refresh the image
of a n international sports spectacle
already soiled by bloodshed and
bad aim.
In women's figure skating, the
favorites are Oksana Baiul of
Ukraine and Surya Bonaly of
France, not Kerrigan or Harding.
Kerrigan appears unhindered
by the smack on the knee, report-
edly by a man hired by Harding's
ex-husband. A U.S. Figure Skating
Association panel said Saturday it
found "reasonablegrounds" to be-
lieve she was invoked in the at-
tack on Kerrigan but passed the
decision onto the U.S. Olympic
Committee.
"It'sbeen a strange time said
Canadian figure skater Brian Orser.
"Hopefully now, the skating will
shine through
In Norway, all is in readiness
for the Olympics in a country proud
of its winter sports tradition.
Facilities have been complete
for some time. Shuttle buses to ven-
ues run on schedule despite nar-
row, snow-covered mountain
roads.
Samaranch says the ecological
planning was done so well that the
Olympics should be called the

Former Gator football coach attempts suicide out of depression
(AP) ? Depression fueled by
job setbacks led former Florida foot-
ball coach Charley Pell to attempt
suicide, Pell's doctor said.
"We are dealing with a medical
problem and I feel very optimistic
Dr. Carl S. Burak, a psychiatrist at
Baptist Medical Center, said at a
news conference Friday. "Charley
Pell has a "habit of landing on his
teet. I feel his prognosis is very
good
The coach, forced to resign a
decade ago because of NCAA vio-
la nons,attempted suicide Wednes-
day evening by running a hose
fromhisrunningcar'sexhaustpipe
through the passenger window.
Pell was found by state trooper
Malcolm Jowers, the head of the
Gator football team security and a
close friend, after the former coach
left him a suicide note and map of
where to find his body.
Pell, 52, has no lasting effects
from his exposure to carbon mon-
LADIES
oxide, the doctor said.
Burak said he expected Pell to
be released from the hospital in a
