So far this semester, it has done nei- ther. The committee met again Thursday in a tedious and often inharmonious session to deter- mine a fee schedule for next semester's parking stickers. The meeting ended abruptly when the committee delegated the re- mainder of decisions to a sub- committee. "Setting a fee schedule is contingent on several different concepts, some of which are real- location of spaces, change of space and knowledge of what is already here Dr. Dennis Chest- nut, chair of the Parking Com- mittee, said. "One of the issues we thought we might look at is the amount of private spaces we might have available Chestnut said. "We're looking at a 1:1.1 ratio. Right now we sell roughly 10 percent over the amount of spaces we have. "One of the issues is that we might want to look at raising that ratio of private parking, because the turnover is not utilized at that particular ratio Chestnut said. The committee debated sev- eral recommendations on private parking, including abolishing private lots altogether, but no motion to vote was made. The committee decided to send the issue to a subcommittee of staff membt s. Currently, ECU has 146 pri- vate spaces in two lots on main campus. Thirty-nineof those are behind the General Classroom Building and the remainder are beside Messick Fine Arts Build- ing. There is a waiting list of about 30 people for private park- ing decals, said Pat Gertz, direc- tor of Parking and Traffic Ser- vices. Dr. Layton Getsinger, as- sociate vice chancellor for Busi- ness Affairs, said that the com- mittee ought to first determine the level of service that the uni- versity wants to provide before it sets a fee schedule. ECU's core campus has 34 spaces for every 100 parking decals sold. "This is not something we can resolve even during this se- mester Getsinger said. "This is something that is going to have to be worked on throughout the summer as well. "I don't think our purpose is to micro-manage parking and traffic. It is to give us guidance on the grand scale and let us fig- ure out how to make it work Getsinger said. "This really isn't worth all these people's time over three or four more stickers The committee also dis- cussed raising the price of the decal to a number divisible by four, or even 12. Gertz said that faculty members are allowed to pay for their stickers in install- ments by payroll deduction. After briefly discussing the recent loss of 26 parking spaces at the Allied Health Building, the committee put off all recom- mendations until the subcom- mittee met on Monday. The subcommi ttee met yes- terday to hear a proposal on parking at residence halls by Manny Amaro, director of Uni- versity Housing. Amaro pre- sented the group with several recommendations, which the subcommittee will now take be- fore the Parking Committee as a whole. Amaro recommended that freshman parking be pro- vided only at the Allied Health Building and that current parking spaces surrounding dormitories on College Hill and West Campus 'Garret, Greene, White and Clement) be designated as "premium spaces and sell for more than regular spaces. The parking lots on Reade Street that are currently designated as freshmen lots will then be reserved for sophomores and other resi- dents who do not choose to purchase a premium space decal. Amaro will submit for approval the proposals to the full committee next week.

BIBkSSPhoto by Cedric Van Buren Grade policy reinstated By Laura Allard Staff Writer The ECU Faculty Senate passed a policy which will allow students to retake up to three 1000 and 2000 level courses in which they have received a D or F. The new policy states that "a student may replace a grade in three different courses or may replace a single course grade a maximum of three times or a com- bination thereof The policy is effective Fall 1994 and is not retroactive. There- fore, students will not be permit- ted to retake courses taken prior to next fall. "I would like to have seen (the policy) retroactive, but it in- volved too much paperwork. We could have seniors retaking classes they took as freshmen said SGA Vice-President Troy Dreyfus. The policy does not apply to students who have taken an Campus dining changes menu Value menus debut By Stephanie Lassiter StaffWriter ECU students will have an- other option to waiting in the Wendy's drive-thru for 30 min- utes to get a value menu. At the request of ECU students, dining management began offering a value menu on Feb. 14 at all four campus dining locations. "You asked for it, you got it says David Bailey, marketing man- ager for Campus Dining Services. Bailey said Dining Services took surveys during the fall se- mester and diners suggested low- ering prices. So Bailey and his co- workers developed value meals, which are cheaper in price than when the items are purchased in- dividually. The Wright Place, on their value menu, is offering a bowl of soup du jour, side salad and a small drink for $1.99. The soups are all madedaily from scratch. The soup menu includes clam chowder, broccoli and cheese, chicken noodle and seafood chowder, as well as numerous other concoc- tions. "Soup has always been a See DINING page 3 Wright Place adds burgers By Joanna Stout Staff Writer The Wright Place, ECU's central campus fast food din- ing area, will undergo expan- sion next fall. Based on stu- dent demand for more variety, several new menu items will be added. The rear section of the building now used for ROTC will be used to house a new grill and fry area. The Wright Place will carry items such as hamburgers and chicken fillet sandwiches and all other grilled foods now offered at the Spot and the Croatan. Plans include the build- ing of a new lobby for various campus organizations. The ad- dition of a greenhouse area with 100 more seats will ac- commodate the now over- crowded lunch rush. Frank Salamon, director of Dining Services, hopes to begin build- ing around Thanksgiving of 1994. The location of the Wright Place on central cam- pus has caused students to use the area as a meeting place be- tween classes.

One such example is Dr. Uma G Gupta, of the Decision Sciences department. Gupta is involved in a "re-en- gineering" project with a major na- tionaldefensecontractor.Sheis work- ing on thisprojectwithafacuity mem- ber at the University of Central Florida, whereshe used to teach. The project involves a contractor which makes parts for the space shuttle or- biter. Gupta has been working with her co-investigator from UCF since October 1993. "Re-engineering looks at how an organization can improve what it's doing Gupta said. Re-engineering Is what a com- pany does when they want to know how they can improve efficiency, satisfy their customers better, and create more opportunities to grow. In order to do this, a company must look at their past and present proce- dures. After that, they mustask them- selves why they use those proce- dures and look for ways to improve them. "(The company must make a conscious effort to ask How can we improve? Gupta said.

The grade replacement policy was introduced to the faculty Sen- ate Credits Committee last fall and passed during the December meet- ing of the Faculty Senate. "The committee had planned for a lot of changes at the time of the new drop policy said Faculty Sen- ate Chair Patricia Anderson. "In December the senate thought it was time for the grade replacement policy and the report passed im- mediately" Student Government Asso- ciation President Keith Dyer said SGA backed the policy because "other schools in North Carolina have grade replacement policies.

ECU's medical cen- ter is beginning to make the dream of having a baby come true. ECU's medical center completed its first successful in-vitro fertilization pregnancy last December. The anonymous Pitt County couple were in- formed of the positive results just before Christmas, said Dr. Cliffaord Hayslip, reproduc- tive endocrinology and infer- tility specialist. Hayslip per- formed the procedure, in the Birthing Center of Pitt County Memorial Hospital, to produce ECU's first "test-tube" baby. The couple is expecting twins next August. "A program that we de- veloped has now proven itself successful said Hayslip. "Once you start a program you may have numerous fail- ures before you are success- ful, if you fail, then you worry that some aspect of the pro- gram is not working prop- erly when you're success- ful early, you at least know that all of the equipment and personnel are working well This successful implan- tation was the second try at in-vitro fertilization for the medical center. Another at- tempt was made Feb. 19, but results will not be known un- til later, Hayslip said. Even- tually, he is hoping to per- form between 50-100 fertili- zations per year.

The purpose of this forum was to bring together the fac- ulty and student members of ODK and discuss present con- cerns and issues around the ECU campus. The main topics of discus- sion for this forum were diver- sity on campus and ECU's aca- demic climate. The moderator for this fo- rum was Chancellor Richard Eakin.

By Sunday night, Serb forces had pulled out of 23 gun sites around the besieged Bosnian capi- tal, U.N. officials said. U.N. moni- tors had taken control of five more sites and were taking control of another four. That left nine sites which monitors had not yet reached, ac- cording to Brig. Gen. Andre Soubirou, the U.N. commander for Sarajevo. N ATO, after nea rly two years of debate over whether to get in- volved in Bosnia's war, had threatened air strikes unless heavy weapons such as anti-air- craft guns, mortars and howit- zers were pulled back from a 12- mile zone around Sarajevo or placed under U.N. control by 1 a.m. Monday (7 p.m. Sunday EST).

The trip is the highlight of a credit course, "Analysis of the Organization and Impact of the 1994 Winter Olympic Games which gives students a practical overview of the management oi a huge international sporting event. While in Norway, students will study and analyze the social, political and economic issues that influence decisions about the Olympic Games. The course includes daily lectures, group discussions, guest speakers and public inter- views. New flying gadget takes wing Mark Forti had no idea two years ago that he was on the brink iif discovering a remarkable new flying toy. He thought he was just goofing off by making paper airplanes in his apartment at Baylor University. "Basically I was avoiding homework he said, in explain- ing how the X-zylo, a gyroscope that can fly twice the length of a football field when thrown, came to be marketed across the nation in toy stores for $6.95 to $8.95. In its current form, the X-zylo is a thin plastic cylinder that measures 3.75 inches in diameter, weighs less than one ounce and looks something like a short soft-drink can with the top and the bottom cut out. Forti was taking a marketing class at the time he designed the X-zylo and did a project on a marketing strategy for the new product. His professor gave him an A on the project and encouraged him to market the product for real. Forti took his invention to the Phvsics Department at Baylor to get a more technical explanation of the X-zylo's flight principles. The device baffled the experts there. Compiled by Jason Williams. Taken from CPS and other campus newspapers. The UN. commander in Bosnia, 1 t. C ,en. Sir Michael Rose, said Sunday night that both the Serbs and me BosTuan government had so tar complied "almost wholly" with NATO demands.

Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic told CNN on Sunday thai more than half the Serbs' weapons had been withdrawn lie said his forces did not plan to use those guns in other parts of Bosnia, where there is still fighting. Bosnian Serbs spent Sunday night by campfires on Mount TrebevicoverlmkingSarajevo, n ast- ingoenandlambs,drinkingbrandy and singing nationalist songs, while trucks hauled away guns on the roads around Irebevic. Earlier in the day, hundreds of Serbs chanted "(�reater Serbia" .is they gave a hero's welcome to 400 Russian peacekeeping troops in the Bosnian Serb stronghold of Pale, about 10 miles southeast of Sarajevo. Russians and Serbs, who share ethnic and religious ties, are traditional allies. ARussian pledge last Thurs- day to send peacekeepers to Sarajevo led to Karadzic's promise to withdraw Serb guns. The Rus- sians' presence let the Serb leader claim there would be UN rather than Bosnian government, control of Sarajevo.

Es- tablished at ECU in March of 1990, ODK is fairly new, but fast growing. ODK usually inducts 30 to 35 student members per year, plus four to six faculty and staff members. In order to be inducted as a member in ODK students first have to be either juniors or se- niors and carry a 3.0 or above GPA. If those qualifications are met then students must be nomi- nated by a member in ODK and go through an application pro- cess. Senior Katrina Norstrand explained the benefits of being a member of ODK. "It is a very good wav to get involved and meet people.

UNFORTUNATELY THIS IS Wl PEOPLE ARE PUTTING rOO MANY RETIREMENT DO Every vear, a lot of people make a huge mistake on their taxes. They don't take advantage of tax deferral and wind up sending Uncle Sam money they could be saving for retirement. Fortunately, that s a mistake you can easily avoid with TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs not only ease your current tax- bite, they offer a remarkably easy way to build retirement income�especially for the "extras" that your regular pension and Social Security benefits may not cover. Because your contributions are made in before-tax dollars, you pay less taxes now. And since all earnings on your SRA are tax-deferred as well, the money you don't send to Washington works even harder for you. Down the road, that can make a dramatic difference in your quality of life. What else makes SRAs so special? A range of allocation choices�from the guaranteed security of TIAA to the diversified investment accounts ol CREF's variable annuity�all backed by the nation's number one retirement system.

Un- til now, Eastern North Caro- linians had to travel as far as UNC-Chapel Hill, Duke Uni- versity, Charlotte, Raleigh or Winston-Salem to find in-vitro fertilization programs, Hayslip said. The process entails using drugs to stimulate the ovaries to produce several eggs which are then removed by medical procedure. The eggs are mixed with sperm in a laboratory for incubation. Usually around four are transferred into the female's uterus through a plas- tic tube, Hayslip said. Other eggs are frozen for future use, in case of failure. The egg transfer occurred in the IVF laboratory located in Pitt Memorial, Hayslip said. The Birthing Center will even- tually be expanded to accom- modate a large in-vitro fertili- zation laboratory. The procedure does not increase the risk of birth de- fects, Hayslip said. "The overall risk of mis- carriage or pregnancy compli- cations are not increased in women who have pregnancies from in-vitro fertilization other than they are at in- creased risk of having twins or triplets those pregnan- cies are more complicated Hayslip said. The procedure costs around $6,000, and the chances of pregnancy are 20 to 25 percent, Hayslip said. "The actual delivery rate is more like 15 percent because women can miscarry, they can have tubal pregnancies or other complications Hayslip said. According to Hayslip, there are several other options a couple should try before de- ciding on in-vitro fertilization. "Some patients that I'm seeing are not quite at the stage where they're ready to try in- vitro he said. In-vitro fertilization has been in North Carolina for quite some time. Duke and Chapel Hill have had in-vitro programs for more than 10 years. ECU medical center is finally catching up with the times, Hayslip said.

Parking Committee flunks efficiency test Alrignt. Enough is enough. We now declare that the parking situation has be- come a certified-Grade-A pain in the butt. School leaders have continually mouthed off about how important this issue is and then committee after subcommittee meet, make small talk and accomplish nothing. While all of this is happening, hundreds of students with parking decals park off cam- pus and hike to class. We're sick of it. We mean bidness. It's a true insult to our collective intelli- gence. Really it is � just think of it this way: Students need parking spaces. University leaders seem interested in this dilemma but instead of doing something about, let's say, finding a solution, they spend the whole of this semester agreeing that parking is in- deed a problem. The ECU Parking Committee has met for two full meetings and accomplished noth- ing. The subcommittee met for three full meet- ings and accomplished nothing. No plau- sible solutions and no voting. No kidding. These erudite committee members thrive on passing off the responsibility onto another bewildered group's shoulders, who in turn, agree that this is distressing. And the whole thing keeps going around and around until we're all so sick of it that we're ready to puke. Nasty word, yes, but incredibly fitting. So now what? Nothing, as little by little, the precious spaces are taken from us by such things as a shiny new rec center. We wait patiently. And wait. And wait. While we're on the subject of waiting, is this rec center construction schedule going to resemble that of the Todd Dining Hall, which should have been completed Nov. '93, which was then moved to January and now the ten- tative completion date is Spring Break? We should be so lucky. Speaking of lucky, Dr. Lay ton Getsinger, associate vice chancellor for Business Affairs is a rather lucky man who offered this to the subcommittee attendants Monday: "This is not something we can resolve even during this semster This is something that is going to have to be worked on throughout the sum- mer as well Well great. Then this will continue on much like Todd Dining Hall. It won't be resolved this summer, or this fall or next spring even. Espe- cially with the great mind-meld that is the ECU Parking Committee. The whole ordeal is just absolutely baf- fling. But it's part of the fibre of this wonder- ful country we call America. So stand up and be proud. Wave a flag and sing the alma mater. What the committees will probably decide on is a price increase for the '9596 school year. At least they're not, oh, I don't know, ordering pizza and charging it to SGA By Brian Hall Multiculturalism urges emphasis on differences Multiculturalism is one of the hot (and supposedly) new concepts being pushed as a way to strengthen our country. The term is frequently used as a syn- onym for diversity. The basic argument for the concept is tha t the American HHH power struc- ture has been in the hands of only white males, and that by ex- panding the power base, the country will only be stronger. mmmmm Stated this way, it is a very difficult thing to argue against without seeming to be a racist and misogynist. However, this argument blurs the vital distinc- tions between the two concepts. America is a country com- prised of descendents form a vast number of cultures. This used to be celebrated as a source of strength. However, this di- versity did not create a multicultural society. Instead, America took the best of each of these cultures and blended them into the "melting pot" to create a new, and hopefully superior, nation. Now, instead of rejoicing in our commonalties, we are be- ing urged, through the multicultural movement, to em- phasize our differences. The differences between diversity and multiculturalism are vital. A diverse society is the ideal of America. While America has not always lived up to her standards, she at least had the goal of creating a society where immigrants of any nationality could come, assimilate into the culture and prosper. At the same time that the immigrants were learning the American culture, she likewise took the best features of the new culture. American culture has al- ways been enriched by her new citizens. For example, look at the va- riety of foods which are standard American fare now, but were un- known at the America does have a dominant culture, and it is predominantly white, middle class, and protestant (not to mention heterosexual). time of her founding. Or the new art forms, such as jazz, or silk paint- ings from Asia. About the only nearly un- mm changed original institution we have is the English system constitutional government and progressive democratic reform. While this system many times fails to live up to its lofty goals, it is the principle of indi- vidual freedom upon which it is based which has allowed all the progress in the fields of civil rights and equality of the sexes. Multicultural societies, on the other hand, promote separate cultures remaining distinct, rather than encouraging inclusion and assimilation. There is nothing wrong with preserving one's cul- tural heritage. For example, there are many parts of the country where ethnic festivals are annual events. At these popular attractions, descen- dents of the culture and others gather to celebrate the unique con- tributions of one's culture. One of my favorites is the annual Greek festival in Charlotte, though, as far as I know, there are no Greeks in my family. However, there used to be no question as to the nationality of the participants. They, their parents or their grandparents had left Europe or Asia to seek a bet- ter life for themselves and their children. Multiculturalists today seek to reverse this trend. The goal is to get Americans to see them- selves as members of a unique culture other than the American one. For example, to get Korean descendents to see themselves as having more in common with those living in Seoul than with their next door neighbors. Of course this is ridiculous. Even black Americans, surely our most outcast ethnic group, have more in common with other Americans than with black Africans. This idea of multiculturalism is also extremely destructive. Only someone who is historically ignorant could de- scribe America as the "world's first multicultural society as Time magazine did last fall. History is filled with societ- ies which allowed, or could not prevent, more than one culture. None have lasted. Even in our time, the news is filled with ac- counts of the bloody fighting in the former Yugoslavia and Soviet Union, as different ethnic groups fight for control. This is the inevitable result of a society where everybody sees himself not as a citizen of the nation, but as member of a cul- ture within the state. For multiculturalism, rather than en- couraging unity, causes divisive- ness. America does have a domi- nant culture, and it is predomi- nantly white, middle class, and protestant (not to mention hetrosexual). We are only strengthened by having other viewpoints and opinions. That does not mean how- ever that we should be trying to destroy our society from within with division and discord. What we need instead is to individu- ally strive to embrace and cherish our unique cultural diversity, and encourage more groups to feel included therein. PARKING PfcoSLBrt.

PARK jr Vj y �) KeMSt qgfe-T Letters to the Editor To the Editor: This letter is in response to Mr. Stuart's letter of February 15. The purpose of his letter is not clear, but I would like to address three rather disconnected points he attempted to make. First of all he began by calling Mr. Tyndall and Mr. Jones "mudslingers while in the next breath he called the College Republicans, "brain- washed" and "dazed and confused If Mr. Stuart had read the letters of which he was speaking, he would have found no insulting language, just opinions. Secondly, Mr. Stuart called Mr. Jones a "fence-strattler Mr. Jones was isolated by the democratic party for voting his personal beliefs instead of liberal "doctrine Lastly, I would like to know why Mr. Stuart finds that fact that Mr. Tyndall and Mr. Joyner neglected to mention that thev were executive officers of the College Republicans suspicious? Is it necessary in this country to identify your political affiliations to express an opinion? Mr. Stuart, I am sure you will be over- joyed to learn that you can express differing opinions without being insulting. If you would like to learn more, many organizations are now holding "sensitivity seminars" to teach people how to be politically correct. Or doesn't that apply to conservatives? John D. Mize Junior To the Editor: The 15 February 1994 edition of The East Carolinian contained a letter written by Mathew Stuart. He said that ECU College Republican ex- ecutive officers had 'forgot to mention" their positions in their letters, and that "Members of the GOP are again distorting the truth The fact is that Mr. Stuart distorted the truth in the very first paragraph of his letter. Tony Joyner is not now, nor has he ever been, an executive officer of the ECU College Republicans. However, it should be pointed out that, Mr. Blue failed to mention that he is the President of the College Democrats in his letter to your paper. Mr. Stuart also claimed that Thomas Blue did not label Walter Jones, Jr. a liberal. Blue's letter stated "This seems to be a far cry from the liberal legislation Jones is noted for introducing in the N.C. House This certainly appears to be an attempt to label Mr. Jones a liberal. Those people who have taken the time to review the record of Walter Jones, Jr or who have known and supported him since his days in the North Carolina House know the real Walter Jones, Jr. The feeble attempts made by the ECU College Democrats to discredit Walter Jones, Jr the ECU College Republicans, and the Re- publican party will continue to fail. It is pain- fully obvious that the Democratic party is grasping at straws in an attempt to keep their incumbent candidate, Martin Lancaster, in Congress. If Thomas Blue, Mathew Stuart, and the ECU College Democrats cared about the Third Congressional District, and the state of North Carolina, they would be working with Walter Jones, Jr not against him! Julie Underwood Junior Geology To the Editor: After analyzing the barrage of letters dis- cussing Walter B. Jones, Jrs decision to run for Congress, I am compelled to settle the dust on an evolving never-ending tit-for-tat between the Col- lege Democrats and College Republicans. How did this start? In the Feb. 3rd issue, Thomas Blue lam- basted Jones' voting record. I don't blame Mr. Blue for doing this�he is a staunch Democrat. Mr Blue decided to play concerned Joe Q. Public by not identifying his position with the local Demo- cratic Party to his article. According to the Feb. 15th issue, the head- line reads "College Democrats spend Saturday in Jail In that issue, Thomas Blue, President of the College Democrats is identified and quoted. Also in the Feb. 15th issue, Matthew Stuart responds to two letters written by Republicans saying, "Blue may not be able to spot a liberal, but he can surely spot a political opportunist Mr. Stuart is right�Mr. Blue can spot one because he is one Since Democrats outnumber Repub- licans, Blue and Company's purpose again this year is to play devisive politics to win the numbers game. Thank goodness most Eastern North Carolinians are hard-working, decent people who are fed up with party politics and baseless motivations. Deep in your heart Mr. Blue you know that Jones, Jr. is a good and formidable oppo- nent to Mr. Lancaster�and you despise him for that. Mr. Blue and Mr. Stuart your "Satur- day in Jail" was not enough time served. As Chairman of the Pitt County Young Republi- cans, I recommend more hard time for lack of forthrightness. Dan Mills Senior Communication To the Editor: Recently, I have observed a lack of respect for pedestrian right-of-way by many vehicles on central campus. This has become a serious problem in the area between Flanagan and the General Class- room Building. With only ten minutes between classes, stu- dents do not have time to wait for inconsiderate drivers traversing through campus to pick-up and discharge passengers or to "short-cut" be- tween 5th and 10th streets. The time is now for the administration to prohibit all vehicular traffic on campus be- tween 5th and 10th streets at least during the time period of 8:30 am and 3:30 PM.

I IN I I The East Carolinian Page 6 Lifestyle February 22, 1994 Picasso Trigger bring infamous antics to O'Rock's Ex-Robot, Ex-Sugar members front show. By Mark Brett Photo Courtesy of Alias Records Picasso Trigger Staff Writer It was a long night. No matter how you look at it, this past Saturday night at O'Rockefeller's was just about the longest Saturday night I've spent in recent memory. I'm sure that part of the problem was frustrated anticipation. Picasso Trigger was headlining, and I always look for- ward to their shows with the kind of morbid fascination people nor- mally reserve for surveying tor- nado damage or train wrecks. But what actually went down at downtown Greenville's home of alternative music on Saturday was just a trifle disappointing. It was a three-band show, so being the responsible reviewer and seasoned O'Rock's veteran that I am, I showed up early (that is, before 11 p.m.) to catch all three sets. Unfortunately the opening act, Greenville's own Betamax, didn't go on until nearly midnight, which left me twid- dling my thumbs and talking to Scott, the bouncer, for an hour. Now, de- mHHHHBHTMl pending on who you talk to, it may or may not have been Betamax's fault that they took the stage so late. How- ever, I'm not wmmmmmmamm entirely sure they needed to take the stage at all. Betamax sounded like nothing more than a high- schoc heavy metal ga rage band. Technical problems abounded, At their last O'Rock's gig, she heat a hole in the wall with the mic stand and launched herself off the stage. and their set was a disaster. I re- ally liked these guys when they were in Robot, another local fa- vorite, but what happened? At least they redeemed themselves somewhat at the end of the set by ���������H saying, "I'm sorry about this every- body. No, on second thought, fuck all of you This gave me a chuckle and loaned an old - fa sh- ioned punk rock air to the mmmmmmmmmmmmm proceedings that the music lacked. Next up was Buzzhungry, a side project of Sugar's David Barbe. What, pray tell, was a guy who plays bass for such a major Ensemble encourages diversity, literacy By Laura Jackman Staff Writer February is set aside for reflect- ing upon the great achievements of African-Americans and Thursday night will provide an opportunity to do just that. At 7:30 p.m on Feb. 24, the Patrons of Poetry Ensemble will spend the evening reading works by some of the foremost African- American poets, while also provid- ing an analysis of each poem. This event will be held in Mendenhall Student Center, in room 244. The objective of the group is to NY Film Academy seeks students By Steve Griffin Staff Writer Students can win a $4,000 film scholarship to the New York Film Academy for it's eight-week film-making work- shop. The workshop involves writing, directing, shooting and editing a personal movie. The Academy describes the work- shop as "an intense learning experience of hands-on film making The Academy is asking col- lege students to submit a VHS tape of up to 10 minutes or a five-page treatment of some film work. If students want their materials to be returned, they should also enclose a self- addressed envelope with post- age. The closing date for sub- missions is March 15,1994. The winner of the contest will be announced on April 30,1994. The second and third place con- testants will receive $1,000 grants toward tuition at the New York Film Academy.

The other mem- bers involved are Billy Walls, a teacher at Agnes Fullilove School; Altwan Nobles and Anthony Har- ris, who are Fullilove students; and Chris Ha'wood, an undergraduate at ECU. "Our goal is to show that Afri- can-American males can do posi- tive things, even read poetry said Watson. This is the first time the group is bringing their program to the ECU campus. "We do a few readings a year at the Greenville Museum of Art, and wedon'tconfineourselves toj ust African-American works, but since this is Black History month, we arc going to limit ourselves for one night Watson said. ThePatronsdon'tconfine them- selves to just male members either. Expected to read her own work at Thursday's program is poet Wanda Hall. The programs of these read- ings range from such themes or periods as freedom and human dig- nity, spirituality, European poetry, nature and the environment, con- temporary poetry and African- American poetry. What sets the Patrons' read- ings apart from other groups is their analysis of such elements as mood, theme, style, symbolism anu other points of significance.

Bad Brains bring new sound to Attic By Cindy Hawkins Staff Writer " Love them, honor them, wor- ship them. 0 If you weren't at the Attic on the night of Thursday, Feb. 17, you were lost. Would there be any doubt that Bad played to a sold- out house? The show was versatile with many vibes, varieties of song (and people) and political mes- sages�all in the name of freedom. Bad Brains played some newer material, as well as some reggae. The real treat, however, was some of their older songs such as "Re- turn to Heaven" and "Sacred Love Itwas thestuff of high school dreams and memories and it was awesome. However, what was most im- pressive about the show was the reaction of the singer to the mosh pit. True, Bad Brains is hard-core, but they seemed to disdain the fact that the people in the pit were thrashing each other. At several points during the show, the lead commented that "You should not fight each other, man. Fight the system The mosh pit raged on, however, with males more intent on moshing than the messages and the music. All in all, the show was moral and intense, leaving no mistake in any mind as to what the point of the music was. On the other hand, it seemed as though the pit became a working metaphor in the sur- rounding environment. While the comment was, "Join together and fight for the freedom that is denied by the system testosterone fren- zied people whirlwinded and im- pacted each other with all the blind- ness and fury of a violent silence. Original creators cheer Yankees revival NEW YORK (AP) � Director George Abbott wanted what he described as "a pep-talk song something the manager of the Washington Senators could sing to the delinquent members of his hapless baseball team. Out of such directives, show stoppers are born. In this case, the song was "Heart" or, as it i� m. re commonly known to barroom and bathtub baritones everywhere, "You Gotta Have Heart Its author was Richard Adler, who, together with his partner Jerry Ross, already had written the score for Tlie Pajania Game. They were trying for two hits in a row � and they did it. Their second home run was called Damn Yan- kees, and now nearly 40 years after the musical first opened on Broad- way, New York has the show and "Heart" back again. "The song just came � one, two, three Adler says. "Actu- ally, the only line that took a long time to come was 'Miles and miles and miles of heart But Mr. Abbott made everything seem easy be- cause he was so direct. He had everythingso well categorized and organized in his mind Adler's memories of "Heart" are the first thing he thinks of when asked about Damn Yankees, a show that proved that The Pajama Game was not a fluke. The revival stars Bebe Neuwirth and Victor Garber in the roles originally played by Gwen Verdon and Ray Walston. The musical is a baseball retake of the Faust legend. A fan of the Washington Senators�the show is still firmly set in the 1950s � sells his soul to become a star base- ball player on the team. Garber plays the devil and Neuwirth, best known for her tele- vision roles on "Cheers" and "Frasier plays his provocative assistant, Lola. She was immortal- ized by Adler and Ross in another hit song from the show, Whatever Lola Wants. The role made Verdon a star. "Bebe Neuwirth is the only one who could play Lola without being negatively compared to Gwen, although she has a very different quality Adler says. Jack O'Brien, the revival's di- rector, and Abbott have made some changes in the story, accord- ing to Adler, reworking it slightly for today's different sensibilities. "The book has been brought up to the '90s but without chang- ing the era of the show Adler says. "Nobody thought about changing the Washington Sena- tors into a now-existing ball club. This is a period piece. "Attitudinally, some of the people thought some of the things should be altered. The incredible thing about it is that George Abbott (who turns 107 in June) is so clear about what he wants. That's one of the great unbelieveable miracles I've ever encountered The music and lyrics remain virtually the same. "I would not allow the score to be changed at all � any of the notes, any of the harmonies, any of the lyrics Adler says of his work. Yet he did add some new lyr- ics to the devil's big song, "The Good Old Day completing a sec- ond chorus for Garber who is a very different kind of performer than Walston was in the original. Adler has other, more bitter- sweet remembrances of Damn Yan- kees, which should have been just one of the first efforts of a promis- ing songwriting team. Six months after the musical opened in 1955, Ross was dead of a lung ailment. He was 29. In his autobiography, You Gotta Have Heart, Adler summed up the loss. "In the deepest, most essen- tial part of me, I knew that what had departed that day was irre- placeable Adler wrote. "Never again would I have the kind of shared success that we, as young 'Wunderkinds had owned for a year and a half. Eighteen short months, and the memory of them, would have to do me for a life- time In the interview, he expanded on his working relationship with Ross, a partnership in which they both wrote music and lyrics.

Though musically simple (we're talking three-chord rock and roll here, people), they played an energetic set. They would have been more enjoy- able, however, if the crowd hadn't been so lame. But, as is typical here in the Emerald City, everyone stood around trying to look cool, which doesn't gen- erate much energy in a room. People were a little more animated for Picasso Trigger; in fact, there was an honest-to-God nervous tension in the air.

He did take part of lais old series with him: LaPlaca, who was part of the 'Jackie Thomas' cast. "I loved working with her we did have good chemistry Arnold says. Arnold is tackling more than act- ing and producing duties (with co- executive producer Steve Pepoon) on his new show.

If more actual marriages were conducted this way I think there would be less divorce. "I came up with something called 'the negative rules the composer-lyricist says. "Which meant if I came in with an idea � a melody, a lyric, a title or whatever �and I said, 'Gee, I think this is the greatest thing since ryebread and Jerry looked it over and didn't like it, that would be the end of it. The negative ruled. It worked both ways. He used to roar in with some ideas that he thought were great and I didn't like them and that was the end of it None of the Broadway shows Adler has attempted since then has been as successful, and he has found employment in other areas, particularly in the writing of sym- phonic music. "I write only when there is a need to write. I'm always kind of thinking musically, but I need a project he says. "My favorite project right now is a children's book for which I wrote 29 songs and which has been recorded and is now being illustrated. The book, The Deedledock World of Figeldeesnaibop, is a whole new direction for me Yet he hasn't neglected the theater. Adler has a potential Broadway musical in the offing, called Off-Key. He wrote it with playwright Bill C. Davis, author of the two-character drama Mass Appeal. It goes into rehearsal this summer. Off-Key is a warm, joyous, heartfelt show Adler says. "I think audiences today are ready for that kind of deep emotion and heart rather than spectacle. "Coming to Broadway with a new show is going to be very ex- citing. Coming to Broadway with Damn Yankees is fun and games, potential money and, hopefully, it will please a lot of people. "But I think the direction of my writing has gone entirely dif- ferent.

Singer Kathy Poindexter's on stage antics are becoming leg- endary. At their last O'Rock's gig, she beat a hole in the wall with the mic stand and launched her- self off the stage, railing onto the head of some poor drunk who threw beer at her. Time was probably an- other factor; Picasso Trigger didn't get on stage until around 1:40. Imagine showing up to watch this kind of volcano go off and then having to wait 212 hours to see it. The wait was long, everyone knew it would be short set, and more than a few people gave up and went home. Finally, Picasso Trigger took the stage. Poindexter began by saying, "This is gonna be 10 minutes of total chaos. Say goodbye to this PA system, and say goodbye to that wall The O'Rock's staff dutifully moved in to intercept her more insane mo- tions, and the band exploded. Fifteen minutes later, it was over. Trying to report a set list is fruitless. Picasso Trigger was pissed off, and any similar- ity between their recorded sound and what happened on stage is negligible. I think they played "Rub-a-Dub Poindexter sang a filthy little acappella ditty about the sex lives of the audience. Samuel Mintu played his bass with a black dildo. Poindexter did a flying tackle onto the person standing next to me after having what looked like a shoe thrown at her. The band raged. The dust cleared, I bought a T-shirt and then went home feeling vaguely dissatisfied at the show's length but happy with what little I saw. This kind of nasty, anti-social punk show is rare these days, but that's what Picassa Trigger delivers.

ThePirates(2-3)scored runs in the shortened games and got some great pitching form Johnny Beck and Mike Sanburn to com- plete the sweep of Virginia State. Both games were stopped af- ter six and a half innings because of the lead. The Bucs won the opener 18-2and followed with a 18-0 romp. The Pirates rebounded from a three- game sweep against the Florida Gators. "We were very pleased with not onlv the way we went about it, but thev way we played in gen- eral head coach Gary Overton said. "The difference I thought be- tween today and the Florida game was that we ran the bases excep- tionallv well. We really felt very comfortable with that today and pla ved a solid game we like to play In the first game leadoff hitter Jamie Bore lead off withsingleand came home on a infield grounder bv Rick Britton to score the first nin Borel would go three-for-three, earntwo RBls and score two runs.

Borel and asoo Head would drive in two more runs with a pair of singles in I lie inning Heath Clark singled and ended up on third after two wild pitches and scored on BoreTs single. The first four batters in the fourth inning would also cross the plate with the help of a three wild pitches, a passed ball, and a an error. The Piratesadded one in fifth after Borel scored when he tripled and came home on a wild pitch. ECU scored four more runs in the sixth inning to finish the scoring at 18 with onlv 12 being earned on 14 hits. Beckallowed onlv three hits, but a couple of seventh inning errors blew his shutout. None of the runs were earned while he struck out 10 and walked just one. Trojan starter Terrance Whittle would throw 11 wild pitches in five innings "First and foremost I thought we had two very fine pitching performances coach Overton said. "Beck and Sanburn both threw very well. Sanburn was very sharp and Beck hit his spots when he had to and just did a very fine job Game two wasalmost an in- stant replay of the first game. Sanburn went the distance with ninestikeouts. no walks and just two hits. Perhaps the most exciting play of the day came in the sixth inning with the Trojans at the plate. It was first md second with no inits when Darren rhorton lined a pitch back at Sanburn, in turn he threw it to second and (lark threw the ball to lust to See OPENER page 10 February 22. 1994 The East Carolinian 9 COACH cont. from page 8 the team members got injured right before the trip. "It was more difficult being a plaver and a coach at the same time recalls Manahan. The team that she traveled with to Guatemala earned a 6-1 record. "The loss mere she said.

He tightened up a little, but was able to go the distance. His fine performance was well complimented with his team's of- fense. Britton singled in the first and let newcomer Yerys slam a homerun to left to bring him in. Transfer Scott Bermingham would follow with his shot to make it back- to-back HRs. The Pirates scored four in the second when the team batted around wi th the help of Head's two- run homer. ECU picked up two more runs in the third and, in the fourth, they gathered two more with Yerys's second HR on the day. Yerys would go three-for-five, earn four RBIs, and score three times. The Bucs added five in the fifth and two more in the sixth. Bermingham was a perfect three-for-three with one RBI and three runs. ECU gathered the 18 runson 13 hits.

Jones was a first round pickby the team in 1992 and during his rookie season he started at linebacker for the two timedefendingSuper Bowl champs. This past season however, he was benched in favor of Ken Norton. The team might have started Norton in place of Jones because Norton was playing out the final year of his contract and is now a free-agent, so maybe head coach Jimmy Johnson might have wanted to showcase Norton so he will be well compensated if he leaves. One reason that Johnsonstarted Norton was because he was the better pass coverer, so the question of Jones being benched is not clearly defined. Jones was too busy for com- ment.

CAA continued from page 8 Depth is the key asset for any athletic bench to possess. Current statistics reveal that CAA guard positions have an increase in tal- ent and depth. A key contributor to the abundance of depth comes with veteran players allowing their club's younger guards to gain experience. Players with experience serve as role models for newcomers iike Richardson, Manns, McLinton, and Franklin and make the transi- tion more smooth, thus giving a team strength on and off the court. " Lester has taught me a lot Richardson said. "After he leaves hopefully I can continue that tra- dition with the future guards at East Carolina Team effort and cohesion make an athletic team successful. The CAA guard position has tal- ent and rivalry, but most impor- tantly, respect fortheathleteswho play. IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT IN THE REAL WORLD, SPEND A SEMESTER IN OURS. p tiurlWf World Co.
