Today Tomorrc The East Carolinian Vol. 69 No. 14 Circulation 12,000 Greenville, North Carolina Thursday, February 24,1994 14 Pages Due date for professors:One year By Tammy Zion Staff Writer "April 9,1994. "That is what the "date due" reminder might say for a book in Joyner Library. Can a student check out a book for that long? No, but a professor can. Joyner Library will not di- vulge the name of a professor who has a book checked out be- cause of state law, said Dr. Ken- neth Marks, director of Joyner Library. The policy to have a fac- ulty book returned is to send a letter, wait a week, send a letter, wait a week, call. There are no overdue fines for ECU faculty, said Anna Daugherty, head of circulation at Joyner. According to the circula- tion desk at N.C. State Univer- sity, State faculty may check out books for three months. The re- trieval policy is the same with one exception; after the final re- turn notice, faculty are charged three dollars for every day the book is late. Daugherty said that in a worst-case scenario, the book could take over a month to be returned. "In almost all cases, we send a letter and the book comes back and you get the book within a week Daugherty said. "There are some people who abuse the svstem, but we think a week is a reasonable amount of time to al- low people to get tneir materials back to the library after they have been recalled Hundreds of books are re- called each week. If a book is not returned after a few phone calls, Daugherty calls herself. If she cannot provoke action, she calls the faculty member's chair of the department. Marks believes most of the student frustration comes from procrastinating, and that some students are unhappy with the faculty check-out policy. "I think it is unfortunate the way individuals use the library's circulation policies to build pri- vate collections Marks said Senior Jason Williams re- cently had an opportunity to test the recall policy. "I requested a book during the first week of class for a paper that was due the last week in January. The library sent me a letter saying that the book was available a week ago. "What I don't understand is why they can't call the professor immediately. And then why can't they call me instead of wasting their money paying for a stamp to mail me a letter Williams said. Faculty books are due at the end of the year, said Daugherty. If an instructor were to check out a book today, it would have to be returned in two months. UNC-Wilmington students may have it even harder. Sharon Connelly, of the circulation desk at UNC-Wilmington, said that three letters are sent. If a student still wants a book after waiting, the library will call. Wilmington faculty receive no fines for not turning in a recalled book. Individual library policies are periodically re-examined by the Policy Operations Review Committee, made up of Joyner facultv. Daugherty said it is un- likely that any policies will change soon because Joyner is working on settling everyone into the new Marquis system. She said that if so much were to change at one time, students and faculty may feel alienated. Not Today! High temperatures in the 70s brought out the shorts and sun glasses for an unusual February day earlier in the week. Today is a different story, however, and the weekend looks even worse. Don't worry, spring is on the way, and Spring Break is even closer. Florida has weather like this all the time! Photo by Cedric Van Buren Former students remember integration Greenville not throwing it all away By Jon Cawley Staff Writer The Greenville Public Works curbside recycling pro- gram is always expanding and has grown increasingly success- ful in improving the public's par- ticipation in the project. The pro- gram is, however, experiencing some problems, especially in the areas near campus. The city of Greenville be- gan it's recycling program in August of 1993, in a two-part pro- gram involving single-family homes and apartment complexes. said Tom Tysinger, director of Public Works. In the single-fam- ily portion of the program, recyclables are placed in a desig- nated receptacle and picked up by the Public Works department at the home. In apartment com- plexes all recyclables for the en- tire complex are placed in one designated blue dumpster for pick-up by the department, Tysinger said. "Apartment dwellers throw garbage in with the recy- clable materials Tysinger said. "When that happens, and you get to a certain point where you actually have more garbage in there than you have recycling, they can't accept it as recyclable materials and it gets dumped in the land fill The Public Work depart- ment wants to find out what they can do to increase participation with multi-family complexes. Tysinger said education is part of the problem and he hopes that the department can better edu- cate those people in the com- plexes on how to properly dis- pose of recyclables. See RECYCLE page 3 By Shannon Cooper Staff Writer The chancellor was inter- rupted three times as he told stu- dents, "force will be met with force, and lawlessness shall be prosecuted to the full extent of the law Afterwards, the group of about fifty black students walked out. Several hours later, they staged demonstrations near the entrance of two administra- tion buildings. They left peace- ably on the orders of campus police. Is this a scene from the fight lor a black cultural center at UNC- Chapel Hill? No this is a descrip- tion of one of the many demon- strations that took place on ECU's campus during the late 60s after integration. For 56 years, ECU's charter read, a school for "white men and women" until it was amended in 1957 in conjunction with the 1954 Supreme Court decision. East Carolina University was one of the few major institu- tions that integrated without a court order. It came about as a result of the forward thinking of Dr. Andrew A. Best and ECU Chancellor Leo Jenkins. "If you look at the rest of the universities, what they did and when they did it, it was much later than the time table that ECU did it Ray Rogers, a 1972 gradu- ate, said. Integration began during the summers of 1961 and 1962. Black students attended summer sessions along with black teach- ers who were renewing their cer- tification. In the fall of 1963, ECU ad- mitted it's first full-time black student, Laura Marie Leary, who became the first black student to graduate from ECU. Leary, a native of Vanceboro, was facilitated in her enrollment by Dr. Andrew Best, a local physician. Leary attended ECU a full academic year as the only black student. The following year she was joined by ten other blacks students. She graduated in 1966 with a Bachelor of Science degree in business administration. By 1966, there were 50 other black students in residence See INTEGRATION page 4 Worth noting By order of the Greenville City Council, parking on Ninth Street between Cotanche and Charles is prohibited, effective Tuesday, Feb. 22nd. Violators will be ticketed. Library suffers heat wave By Tina Chiwona Staff Writer "It's like a heat wave. Burning in my heart For the past two weeks, patrons of Joyner Library have been sing- ing this song, because of the unusually high tem- peratures in the west wing. Meanwhile on the south side of the library, contractors can be seen at work. "The contractors are replacing the chillers said Dr. Kenneth Marks, the academic library di- rector. "The chillers, or the HVAC, (Heating, Venti- lation and Air Condition- ing), are part of the sys- tem that keep the build- ing at an appropriate tem- pera ture Last week the west wing experienced very high temperatures as the chillers were being changed. Marks said rea- sons for the building's el- evated temperature in- clude above normal sea- sonal temperatures. As the seasons change, the li- brary has problems ad- justing to a suitable tem- perature. "During this pro- cess, we have been with- out an acceptable level of ventilation, heating or cooling Marks said. "When the temperatures got as warm as last week, it became much hotter and intolerable inside. "You can be assured that the library faculty and staff were just as un- comfortable as anyone who entered the library he said. Tammy Ridouttand Mollie Floyd are student employees who work downstairs in the North Carolina collection. "It was sickly hot and diffi- cult to work in Ridoutt said.

SARAJEVO, Bosnia- Herzegovina (AP) � American, Russian and European diplo- mats decided the cease-fire model that has allowed Sarajevo residents to walk city streets again should be extended to other beleaguered Bosnian towns. Russia blocked consider- ation of any new NATO ultima- tums to enforce the truces. But German Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel said further ultimatums may be needed. And a U.S. official said Washington hadn't ruled out force. The diplomats met Tues- day in Bonn, Germany, where they also agreed to push Bosnia's three warring factions � Muslims, Serbs and Croats � toward an agreement to end the 22-month war by dividing Bosnia into three states. The talks move today to Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, where Bosnian government military commander, Rasim Delic, and the Bosnian Croat commander, Ante Roso, were expected to sign a cease-fire, U.N. sources in Zagreb said. In Moscow, President Boris Yeltsin proposed a meeting with leaders of the United States, France, Britain and Germany to work out a political settlement in Bosnia. There was no imme- diate response from those coun- tries. Artillery fire wounded five U.N. peacekeepers Tuesday near the besieged city of Tuzla. The five Swedish peace- keepers were patrolling in U.N. armored personnel carriers in Ribnica, 20 miles southwest of Tuzla. The wounds were not life- threatening, a U.N. spokesman said. It was not known who fired the shells.

Thousands of Sarajevans were out on the slushy streets Tuesday, while NATO war- planes flew overhead to enforce NATO's threat to bomb any ar- tillery positions that shelled the capital. U.N. spokesmen said all arHllery not removed by Serb troops besieging the city was under U.N. control or inoper- able. "The main thing is the Serbs stopped shelling, so we can freely walk out on the streets. Other things will be solved step by step, but peace is most important said one resi- dent out for a stroll, Enver Huseinovic, 58. Relief convoys and flights resumed Tuesday in Bosnia. They were stopped last week in case NATO air strikes were or- dered and fighting escalated. The United Nations said 13 planes dropped 99 tons of food into Gorazde, a besieged Mus- lim town in eastern Bosnia. U.N. troops hoped to open Tuzla airport March 7 for aid flights to central Bosnia, said Kofi Annan, the head of U.N. peacekeeping operations. But Serb-led Yugoslavia objected, saying the airport is too close to Yugoslavia. Tuzla is 25 miles west of the Yugoslav border. Diplomatic efforts have in- tensified since the NATO ulti- matum forced Serbs to pull their heavy guns away from Sarajevo and brought Russia strongly into the picture. Russian troops joined U.N. peacekeepers in Sarajevo, and Moscow quickly claimed a leading role in peace efforts. Diplomats said Tuesday they would seek relief for Serb- besieged Muslim enclaves and pressure Muslims and Croats for a cease-fire in central Bosnia and the southern city of Mostar. "For now, I would say, we give peace a chance said Juergen Chrobog, a deputy Ger- man foreign minister and host of the meeting. Stephen Oxman, a State Department assistant secretary who took part in the meeting, said the United States did not rule out force, but would pro- ceed on a "case-by-case" basis while trying to bring peace to new areas.

Theevidence turned up in hair samples from newboms, suggest- ing long-term exposure to nicotine and other potentially harmful com- ponents of tobacco smoke, said re- searcher Dr. Gideon Koren. The study didn't investigate whether the exposure affected the babies' health. But previous research suggests children of womenexposed to secondhand smoke two to three hours a day while pregnant might haveanincreased riskof subtleprob- lems with speech, language, intelli- gence and attention span. Prior research also shows that when a pregnant woman smokes during pregnancy, risks to a fetus include low birthweight, prematu- rity and possible long-term effects on mental development, Koren and his co-authors said in Wednesday's issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association. Koren, a professorof pediatics, pharmacology and medicine at the University of Toronto, spoke in an interview before presenting his re- sults Tuesday at an AMA newsbrief- ing. Dr. Neal Benowitz of the Uni- versity of California, San Francisco, said the study's result was convinc- ing but not surprising. "It's really unclear what it means, if anything, in terms of ba- bies' health said Benowitz, who was not involved in the study and also researches the effects of nico- tine. Koren said he suspected sec- ondhand smoke may harm fetal health only if combined with other risk factors like an inadequate oxy- gen supply. Carbon monoxide from smoke may itself reduce the supply of oxygen to fetuses, he said. SeeSMOKEpageA RECYCLE Continued from page 1 Tysinger said the Public Works program makes recycling as simple as it can be. "All resi- dents are required to do is sepa- rate their garbage from the recyclables which all go in the same container co-mingled Tysinger said. "The recyclables are then taken to the Pitt County Materials Recovery Facility (MRV) Once the recyclables reach the facility, they are separated by facility employees leaving none of that responsibility with the resi- dent, Tysinger said. Another problem with the program is that people get con- fused about what kind of card- board is recyclable, Tysingersaid. Corrugated boxes with air spaces are recyclable, while cardboard like in cereal boxes is not, he added. "What we get is a lot of people throwing away cereal boxes and detergent boxes and things like that in the recycling bins, and they need to not do that he said. The Styrofoam and plastics grocery stores use to wrap meat is not recyclable, Tysinger said. He added that steel food cans are now recyclable if they are rinsed out so the food does not spoil. When recycling plastic drink bottles, Tysinger said the tops should be removed to prevent heat from building up and caus- ing the bottle to explode from the pressure. Other plastics are recyclable if they have the number one or two on the bottom, however oth- ers like oil or antifreeze contain- ers are not acceptable because they are considered hazardous waste, Tysinger said. Right now there is no recycling program for hazardous materials in the county; however, Joy Hudson, recycling coordinator for Pitt County expects to soe one in the future. Tires must be taken directly to the landfill where they are shredded and used for various projects, Hutson said. One ex- ample of this, is the rubberized asphalt mix track at ECU's Harrington Field, Tysinger said. He added that contract bids for the Northwest Bypass construc- tion project must include this mix for the road construction, and a Greenway project is being planned for a similar bike path from College Hill Drive to Fifth Street. Paint cans can be taken at the landfill, but Hudson said if the paint is not totally used, the lid should be removed to let the paint become a solid. She empha- sized that people should find some way to "use up the materi- als you buy Newspapersand magazines are recyclable and can be put to- gether, Tysinger said. The depart- ment asks tha t people place these kinds of paper products in a gro- cery bag and tie the handles to- gether to keep the papers con- tained while in the bin and to keep them from getting wet. The department also picks up white goods and lawn waste. All white goods, or appliances such as refrigerators, water heat- ers and stoves can be left on the curb, however Tysinger said resi- dents should call Public Works first and set up a date that the appliances can be picked up. Since Jan. 1, 1993, all yard waste has been requ ired to be sepa- rated in the land fill, Hudson said. All vegetative materials such as leaves and limbs are now recy- clable in the curbside program, Tysinger added. He emphasized that the department would like people to separate leaves and grass clippings from limbs and branches into two piles when leaving them on the curbside. Garbage is picked up by the city on Mondays and recyclables are picked up on each Thursday, Tysinger said. He believes that close to 100,000 pounds of recyclables are being picked up and delivered to the recovery fa- cility a week. Tysinger said this is "pretty good" and represents about 15 percent to 20 percent of the total amount of refuse picked up, depending on how the week goes. The problem with separat- ing recyclables is occurring espe- cially at the Tar River apartments and others located near the cam- pus. "For people that stay busy and on the go all the time, recy- cling is not foremost on their minds Tysinger said. "It does take a few minutes of time, but it really doesn't take that long, and once you get in the practice of doing it, it becomes real simple to do Tysinger said. " It also makes you feel good about what you are doing, you're now part of trying to improve the Earth's resources Neither the city of Green- ville nor Pitt County receive rev- enue from the recycling projects. Money gained from recycling used to go to the site attendant at the landfill, however that has since changed, Hudson said. "Now all money from the Eastern Carolina Vocational Center (EC VC), where most recyclables are taken, goes to fund the MRV The Pitt County program is seeking to increase participation in recycling to comply with Sen- ate Bill 111 which was passed in '90 or '91, Tysinger said. The bill requires that local governments reduce the amount of refuse go- ing into their landfills by 25 per- cent in 1993. Tysinger said the number is going to increase to 40 percent by 2001, including such items as tires which are now re- cyclable. "The county is well over 25 percent and on the way to clearing 40 percent he said. In order to increase knowl- edge of the recycling program, presentations have been made to the Inter-Fraternity Council and also at the PanhellenicCoun- sel, Tysinger said. The SGA has also been approached concern- ing the program, but Tysinger said he is waiting to hear from them.

Because nicotine is eliminated quickly from the body, the longer-lasting cotinine is the more reliable indicator of ex- tent of exposure to smoke, research- ers said. For infants of women exposed to secondhand smoke, levels of cotinine were about twice those found for infants of non-exposed mothers. infants of non-exposed moth- ers showed some cotinine because of small amounts of nicotine in foods, Koren said.

"When I was here, there were about 16 of us and we knew each other intimately. We had to have that type of bond and cama- raderie Rogers said. Being black on a predomi- nately white campus during the sixties had its difficulties, Rogers said. "There were Klan meetings held on or near campus Rogers said, "And we had teachers who resented the fact that we were there and felt that we were being shoved down their throats There weren't any mecha- nisms to police discrimination on campus. According to Rogers, there were issues around health care that were mandated by the uni- versity that caused problems to minorities. "I never really had the op- portunity to have dental care, so I ended up having cavities which in the opinion of the infirmary, 1 had to have extracted or filled Rogers said. "I was literally pulled out of class and told I couldn't come back until I had those teeth extracted. You can say that's not racial, but I don't think there were too many white kids pulled out of class over a tooth issue The black student popula- tion grew during the '70s and their campus participation in- creased along with it. Black students established the Society of United Liberal Stu- dents (SOULS), which was the forerunner of Allied Blacks of Leadershipand Equality (ABLE). SOULS helped to convert the "Y" hut into the Afro-Ameri- can Cultural Center in 1975. "When the black students first eyed that center it was the campus Christian group meeting place.

"Things have changed and what was appropriate then isn't really appropriate now, it's not enough Hawkins said. ECU's curriculum during the early years of integration did not respond to the change in stu- dent population diversity. "I think that at that time they were getting used to having Afri- can-American students on cam- pus. There wasn't a lot of thought given to integrating us into the curriculum in terms of course work Hawkins said. During theearly '70s, a black literature class and a black his- tory class were added to ECU's curriculum. ECU was beginning to meet the academic needs of blacks, but not the social needs, which could be fulfilled through fraternity and sorority life. The problem with establish- ing social organizations was that no student receiving financial aid could join a fraternity or sorority. The majority of black students were receiving financial aid. The problem was solved when Zeta Eta Lambda, a local graduate chapter of Eta Nu Inc pr . ided monetary funds for stu- dents wanting to join a fraternity or sorority. This led to the establishment of Alpha Phi Alpha in 1971. "I feel, and I'm sure other people who were in school when I was here feel, like the things we did while we were here have re- ally made the difference in the way things are for students to- day Hawkins said. "It's a part of our lives that we still talk about every single solitary time we get together Rogers said. "It was just a phe- nomenal experience trol the temperatures in the west wing were installed last Friday. "We should now be feeling an appropriate temperature in the west end of the library Marks said. The process of changing the chillers began shortly after the new year, and has been under- way- for about six weeks. The de- cision and scheduling of the project was made by the Physical Plant. The Plant is responsible for the maintenance and functions of campus buildings. Similar plans are expected for the east wing of Joyner library. "We've been told that they are going to replace the chillers for the east wing Marks said. Marks hopes that the spring cli- mate will remain normal so that patrons using the library in the east wing will not feel the same discomfort as that of the west wing last week. Jason Kempton, a senior, said, "It was too hot to study. I couldn't even stay in here be- cause the heat was unbearable on the top floor or any floor Other students had similar complaints and took them to the librarv assistants who explained the situation. "It was very hot for a solid week said Dan Shouse, a reference librarian. "The chillers were not operating properly at the time, and were fixed on Fri- day. "It was extremely hot and a lot of people were miserable and wanted to know why it was so hot he said. The library has posted a sign that savs, "We are having a heat wave To reduce the amount of heat in the building, the main doors are opened, so long as there are no dogs outside.

' ' " OJ�JJJ- Revamped faculty book return policy overdue It seems like a library should be a trust- worthy place. It ought to be a dependable, usable resource for the development of studies. This is necessary on the collegiate level because of extensive research assignments. It i absolutely essential at Joyner, and more often than not, an impossible ideal to ob- tain. Joyner, aside from not having enough volumes (approximately 929,956 bound) or space in which to house those they have, also participates in a policy wherein a professor can check out books as long as she wants for up to a year. Let's develop a little scenario here: You, the student, after a pained search on the insufficient Marquis system (that locates items more effectively by subject than by au- thor or title), finally find that oh-so-impor- tant-book for that oh-so-important-paper. Except you then discover that the vol- ume has been checked out. Drats! Standard policy dicta tes that this volume of work can be recalled. If the patron is a professor, however, you find yourself up that prover- bial creek without a paddle (the river Styx, maybe?). This policy, while certainly not more disruptive than the new computer system, can create a lot of problems for a young student researcher. Joyner's ineffective, lackadasical retrieval method is unaccept- able. By the time you receive the book you requested (if you ever do), usually your paper or project is completed. And what help is the book then? The library might as well have never retrieved it in the first place. Honestly, the faculty allowances are primarily understandable. It's like a job perk. Every person that has a job knows what their perks are. Maybe you get to use the copier for personal business, or you have access to free beverages, and possibly even paper clips galore! Whatever it is, you know (or should know) not to abuse the system. When you cross that line, the perks are no more. These professors deserve some perks. We're not denying them that. But maybe Joyner should make this return policy stricter and the time period should be set somew here around a month or two. Not too unreasonable. We're not saying that all professors are abusing this system, either. We're not even suggesting that most do. But the occassion does arise when students need research items and professors � relishing in their privilege � ignore and or forget written requests. And since there are no overdue fines for professors, why should they care? To all those professors who make stu- dents' lives that much more difficult by bas- tardizing this policy, we'll tell you why you should care: This policy is not here for you to build up your own private, take-home li- brary. We need these books. We aren't kid- ding. So Joyner isn't the Library of Congress. So they don't have enough volumes for a student body of around 18,000 and the com- puter system leaves a lot to be desired. But the least they could do is implement a loan and return system that doesn't hinder stu- dents from studying properly and effectively. That's what we're here for, aren't we? If students are bound by sacred Joyner return policy, then professors should at least have a similar system. Either that, or let students check out books for months on end. Imagine all the money they'd lose By John P. Adams Animal activists SETA provide valid service A couple of weeks ago I saw a flyer in Brewster an- nouncing the first meeting of Students for the Ethical Treat- ment of Animals. I had been wondering when they were going to meet because I wanted to write a piece about them. To be honest, I've wanted to write a piece on animal ac- tivism for sev- eral years. At my alma mater (UNC-G) �-� People for the Ethical Treat- ment of Animals used to stage demonstrations about every four months because one of the professors there was do- ing research on cats. PETA marched around carrying signs which proclaimed that this professor was guilty of terrible crimes against ani- mals. They claimed that he set traps for stray cats around the campus and that he tortured them. Needless to say, this an- gered me a great deal. Not that cats were being tortured, but rather, that a serious profes- sional performing valuable re- search was being harassed by a group of people who had nothing better to do. Don't get me wrong. I'm a cat lover myself. I own a tabby named Bernie. I took her off the street six years ago and I was going to tell you how they were just a bunch of bleeding heart, tree hugging, puppy- loving, vegetarian freaks. we've been companions ever since. However, as much as I care about Bernie, she's just a cat (and a lazy one at that). What angered me about PETA was not that they were protesting, but the fact that all ���mHi �f these people (usu- ally about 50), with all of their en- ergy and re- sources were devot- ing so much time to ani- mal rights when there were, and still are, literally thou- sands of more important issues which needed to be addressed. Last Thursday I attended this semester's first meeting of SETA (not to be confused with PETA as I learned during the meeting). Having read this far you realize that I was not at- tending this meeting with what one might refer to as an objec- tive frame of mind. Let's face it, I was there to get a little fodder for my can- non. I was planning to really let these people have it. I was going to write about how they were wasting their time on an unimportant issue. I was going to tell you how they were just a bunch of bleeding heart, tree-hugging, puppy-lov- ing, vegetarian freaks. I can't do it though. Not because I'm afraid to, but be- cause it's not true. The most important thing to know about SETA is that they are not associated with PETA. SETA consider themselves an educational group whereas PETA would be considered an activist group. SETAs goals were clearly stated at the meeting. First, they hope to advance vegetarianism by promoting a high protein, non-meat diet to be served at Mendenhall. This is a legitimate issue which should be addressed because of the growing number of vegetarians. Secondly, they are against testing on animals for cosmetic type products. Who can argue this point? With modern tech- nologies there is no need to keep performing tests on animals so that we can look and smell bet- ter. Thirdly, SETA is against overpopulation of animals. They are in favor of spaying and neu- tering pets to promote this. Finally, they are not as judgmental as PETA about the testing on animals for medical research when necessary. I think everyone will agree that this is a sensible stance. I still think that there are more important issues to be ad- dressed, but at the same time I think the issues which SETA bring up are valid and impor- tant. For anyone interested, SETA's next meeting is Thurs- day, March 3, at 6:30 in the Gen- eral Classroom Building, room 1001. By Laura Wright Snapple may conflict with your morality Not too long ago, there was a debate about whether or not it is ethical to use fetal tissue trans- plants to treat patients with Alzheimer's disease. The debate stems from the fact that the tis- sue is obtained from aborted fe- tuses and this fact, of course, pre- sents a moral dilemma to any- one who has a problem with abortion. Basically, I feel that if the transplants are beneficial, then it is absurd to deny treat- ment to anyone. Then again, I am pro-choice and my grandfa- ther had Alzheimer's disease. The question that arises from this and similar situations is, do the ends justify the means and how do we process informa- tion that arises from sources that we do not approve of? On a some- what less controversial note, sev- eral months ago, I read a story in Ms. magazine that was written by a woman who had been a big Miles Davis fan. She claimed that Davis's music was soothing and therapeutic to her until she found out that the singer physically abused Cecily Tyson. After she found out about this side of Davis, she was not able, in good conscience, to support him by listening to his music. Michael Jackson provides a similar situa- tion. While deciding whether of not to listen to Miles Davis may seem to be a trivial matter com- pared to deciding whether or not to use fetal tissue transplants, both situations are based upon ethical assumptions. Davis's abil- ity as a musician doesn't matter in the decision and neither does the success or failure rate of us- ing fetal tissue as a treatment for a disease. I mention these situations because we are all faced with similar dilemmas�probably more along the lines of the Davis incident�on a day to day basis. It is often hard to see the good in the accomplishments of an indi- vidual when that individual be- haves in a way that conflicts with our moral code. It is difficult to approve of information, no mat- ter how helpful it may be, if we disagree with the way it is ob- tained. Take, for example, Bill Clinton's affair with Gennifer Flowers. Regardless of Clinton's qualifications to be president, this affair damaged his political standing, and would probably have ruined him if (luckily for Bill) Gary Hart hadn't paved the way for him a few years ago. Even more complicated is the question of whether or not the information that was ob- tained through medical experi- ments on the Jews by the Ger- mans during World War II should be used. While some of the data obtained through these experiments may allow for bet- ter treatment of specific illnesses, the manner by which the in- formation was obtained is al- most too horrible to be be- lieved. This example seems to be the most difficult to rec- tify. There is no middle ground; what was done to the Jews was morally deplorable. I guess that each situa- tion provides a different set of questions and it is up to the individual to decide what is right and wrong. Morality is a complicated matter and im- moral behavior often pro- duces beneficial results. It's a matter of degrees and those degrees are dependent upon personal beliefs. I believe that fetal tissue transplants should be implemented and I never listened to Miles Davis in the first place. I do avoid Snapple soft drinks because Howard Stern (or is it Rush Limbaugh, or are they the same person?) drinks them and I boycott Domino's pizza because it do nates proceeds to pro-life or-I ganizations. As far as politi cians are concerned, I don't- care who they sleep with. I can't really say what I think about the Nazi medical experiments; I'm not sure. Greenpeace prints pam- phlets about recycling and saving the rainforests. I think that's great � too bad trees had to die to make those pam- phlets. Letters to the Editor 'H To the Editor: Dr. Joel Brind, Professor of biology, chemistry and endocrinology, Baruch College, City College of New York, has written nationally concerning the breast-cancer-abortion connection. Professor Brind asks the question: Why don't abortion providers tell pregnant young women(especially those with a family history of breast cancer) the news that having an abortion increases their life-time breast cancer risk? Byl970, when World Health Organization data from four countries 'suggested increased risk asso- ciated with abortion a red flag should have gone up in front of the green light of Roe vs. Wade. Many other studies (mostly on spontaneous abortion) also suggested increased risk, and in 1981, a University of Southern California study found a 140 increased breast cancer risk among young women who had elected to abort their first pregnancy. On the East Coast, the 1989 computer registry study by the New York Department of Health showed a 90 risk increase for women with any abortions and 300 for those with two consecutive abortions! These findings were echoed by studies in Russia, Japan, Denmark and France. The theory here is consistent: Surging estro- gen of early pregnancy makes breast tissue (nor- mal and abnormal) grow. Late in pregnancy, other hormones make the tissue permanently less sus- ceptible to cancer, conferring the known protec- tive effect of early first childbirth. Why don't abortion providers tell pregnant young women the facts? I wonder if their reasons for withholding information are purely for the sake of exploiting women, their political agenda, and the money they make at the expense of lives. Informed con- sent should be passed in every state legislature in the U.S. Women should be given the facts!

He had already published a book of poetry before his death but never got to send the second one to publishers. Three years later, Rishel's family had done just that. EntitledWiM Rodent Strikes Again, the book is on sale for $10. The money will go into a scholarship fund made available to students from Orange High School and East Carolina University to attend a fall writing conference held in different parts of North Carolina each year. WhileastudentatOrangeHigh Walter Rishel was involved in sev- eral activities. He was a cross coun- try runner for the school, and also wrote several sports stories for The News of Orange County, Tlie Nezvs and Observer, and Vie Cfmpel Hill Newspaper. Rishel continued writ- ing while majoring in history at ECU, where he was poetry editor for a literary magazine at the uni- versity. In 1989 his first poetry col- lection, Ascending Liabilities, was published. The poems in Wild Ro- dent Strikes Again are dated from Jan. 1989 to Oct. 1990. After deciding to publish the collection after Walt's death, Mrs. Rishel and other members of the family contributed to the final prod- uct. His sister Shana added some verses and drawings in memory of her late brother. "Waltloved to write shesaid. "By creating this fund, we're put- ting something back into the writ- ing community that Walt got so much out of. When someone dies, it's very hard to let go; this scholar- ship is a way of keeping him around. We've put several writers through the program and have received many thank-you letters in return "This is something Walt would definitely appreciate. It also gives my mom and dad something to do�it keeps them busy. Having everyone add something, united the family more. I wish Walt were here to see this happen As with Ascending Liabilities, Walt dedicated the book to "Mom & Dad & Jesus He explained the dedication in an East Carolinian in- terview in 1990. "It's their book, written by their son. I needed some- thing in there to acknowledge the fact that I wouldn't have this talent if it weren't for themEverything that I am, they made me. Jesus, of course, made us all, and I owe ev- erything to Him Copies of Wild Rodent Strikes Again are being sold at area book- stores such as the Intimate Bookshop in Chapel Hill.

Nolte, O' Neal hit the court for Blue Chips By Steve Griffin Staff Writer ThenewmovieBlueQiips should be the ultimate basketball film. The film breaks new ground by using real athletic talent to portray talented ath- letes. The film not only has many basketball stars but it also stars Nick Nolte as the coach of the team. The story is about a college bas- ketball team, the Western University Dolphins, who were former national championsbutnowhaveslippedout of the national rankings in recent years. Thecoachof the team, Nolte,is underpressuretoform another cham- pionshipteam. Nolte and theathletic director begin a search for "bluechips" which are the best of high school basketball, the finest amateur ath- letes money can buy. Playing the "blue chip" prospects are Shaquille JO' Neal and Anfemee Hardaway from the Orlando Magic and Matt Nover from the University of Indi- ana. The director of Blue Chips, Will- iam Friedkin, arranged a four-game seriesof some of the most impressive former and current college stars to compete in the movie. Executive producer, Ron Shelton said, "The competi tion in this movie had to be a t a very high level. We needed college players who could hold up their end of a game against Shaquille O' Neal. The result of these games was high caliber basketball played in an un- likely venue: the movie theater Nick Nolte prepared for his role as a coach by spending two weeks inside and outside the gym with Indi- ana coach Bobby Knight Nolte says, "The key to coaching is being able to use your imagination. Read, react, create. What separates the master craftsman from the average coach is his creativity. It's a thinking man's game Participation in the film from individuals like Bobby Knight and other college notables is evidence that the themes addressed in Blue Chips are of importance to the majority of coaches who ran clear programs. Thestory wasfirstwritten 12years ago by Ron Shelton. Blue Chips deals with themes of corruption, morality and ambition, much of what director Friedkin deals with in his movies. Friedkin said, "The story is probably timelier today than it was when Ron Shelton first wrote it. The competition for these athletes has become much sharper as the price has gone up with television revenues and product en- dorsements being so lucrative Blue Oiips was released on Feb. 18.

Thespians earn raves, money By Laura Jackman Staff Writer Last Wednesday the Black Thespians of ECU performed the play, "Black Voices from the Past to over 200 people, but many students still don't know what the Thespians are all about. The group was formed last year and is ii comprised of about 15 members, mostly stu- dents, and is under the advise- ment of En- glish pro- f e s s o r Reginald Watson. Watson wrote the play with the hope that it would "educate and entertain at the same time After last year's positive re- sponse to the production, the group decided to continue with it as long as the demand was there. And the demand is present. Just last weekend the Thespians traveled to Campbell University to per- form excerpts from the play. "It was very successful said Watson, "people learned a lot Although the Thespians are not an official student or- ganization, they plan to ap- ply through the Student Union in hopes of receiving funds to help take the pro- duction on the road. "We're very community oriented said Watson. "Last Wednes- I day pro- duction raised over $300 for the Ledonia S. Wright Scholar- s h i p Fund, so our goal was reached With every program the Thespians perform, they try to add new pieces to it, to keep it interest- ing. The group hopes to keep performing and to keep rais- ing money for good causes. If you missed last week's performance, you can still see an abridged version of it this weekend at the Army Reserve in Greenville. For more infor- mation, contact Reginald Watson at 355-3380. Last Wednesday's production raised over $300 for the Ledonia S. Wright Scholarship Fund Reginald Watson Author of Black Voices from the Past Hunt happy to be "Mad" NEW YORK (AP) � Helen Hunt figures it this way: Not only can you can keep a marriage inter- esting for a lifetime, you also can keep a sitcom marriage interesting for the life of your five-year con- tract. Providing, of course, it's the right marriage. And the right sitcom. "There is limitless confu- sion to work through in a marriage Hunt says with unconfused plea- sure. "I've never been married, but I know enough about relationships to know that five years wouldn't BEGIN to help someone figure out how to get it right. "So even if the show runs that long, it will keep me on my toes She's talking about "Mad About You which, in its second season, keeps its viewers on their toes, too. Not to mention laughing. Granted, lots of sitcoms are about marriage. But "Mad" (which airs at 8 p.m. EDT Thursdays on NBC) is wed to a fresh approach. CD Reviews S 0fDon't Buy 9 m Take Your Chances 0f0 0 Worth A Try s s s s 9 f0 TS m Definite Purchase The Veldt Afrodisiac m m 0 On Feb. 22 the Veldt re- leased their first full-length album titled Afrodisiac on the Mercury la- bel. They're from the Raleigh- Durham-Chapel Hill Triangle. This album was produced by Ray Shulman who hns worked with The Sundays, Sugar Cubes and Ian McCulloch. The firstsinglereleased will be titled "Soul In A Jar It features two remixes by Diamond D. and Jesus and Mary Chain. This album contains a lot of range, from melancholy dance songs to political issues to ordinary love songs. But sometimes you're left wondering if the mood they're setting fits with the subjects they're singing about. This is the case in "You Take The World This song talks about standing up and succeeding in the face of ghetto despair. The lyrics are really insightful, but the repetition of the song almost makes light of the whole subject. One track on the album is titled "RevolutionarySister which is dedicated to the black female. It points out the strife they continu- ally endure, but even that issue seems like it's over simplified. The album is patched with a couple of tracks that are interludes or remixes between songs that range in length from 27 seconds to one minute and 17seconds. They're kind of interesting, but they can hardly be called songs. The Veldt seems to have many different influences, ranging from the Cocteau Twins to Public Enemy to the Cure. They've toured with such bands as Catherine Wheel and Jesus and Mary Chain. In North Carolina they toured with rap acts Seventh Tribe and YaggFu Front. Afrodisiac combines hip- hop with drawn-out solos, and adds light-hearted humor. This is good, but sometimes you wonder when they want to be taken seriously. Afrodisiac has a lot of variety, but not much focus. � Daniel Willis Book Kaisho skips the facts (AP)-His publisher calls Eric Lustbader, author of The Kaisho (Pocket, $22), the Master of the Orient with an "authoritative vision of the Japanese As a portrayal of Japan or the Orient, however, this novel is no more authentic than the kids' film, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Even the title, The Kaisho, is wrong. It's supposed to be a Japanese word, but no native will recog- nize it as such. Inaccurate usages of the Japanese language and ab- surd Japanese names abound. The absence of authen- ticity is not the novel's only flaw. Even more fatal is that the book lacksa coherent and dynamically evolving story. There are a lot of violent scenes, but they all fall flat without building suspense or moving the plot along. The protagonist is Nicho- las Linnear, son of a Chinese woman and a British colonel, who appeared in Lustbader's previ- ous novels, The Miko and The Ninja. Although he is a foreigner in Japan's xenophobic business world, Linnear co-owns a con- glomerate. He obtained this au- gust position, the author writes, because his father "held a special place in the hearts of the older generation of Japanese, for he had been seconded to Douglas MacArthur's SCAP headquar- ters This is preposterous even for fiction. During the Occupa- tion, MacArthur and those con- nected with him sequestered themselves in a building strictly off-limits to the Japanese. Given that kind of atmosphere, it is hard to imagine the Japanese getting to know any of them personally, let alone loving him. MacArthur likely wouldn't have permitted it. The story begins with a Japanese gangster asking Linnear to protect him from an assassin. An interesting enough premise, but Linnear soon disappears from center stage and doesn't re-emerge in any significant way until to- ward the end, when he has a tame confrontation with the assassin. Books like The Kaisho demonstrate one thing: Despite theageof global communications, Japan is still a great mystery to the West. Some Western writers use it as a blank screen on which to project their own fears and anxi- eties. There are no gimmicks or high concepts. No "he's a Republican, she's a Democrat No "he's a reincarnated buffalo from Park Avenue, she's a robot from the poor side of town "It's just these two people in an apartment says Hunt, echo- ing how the show was pitched to her. An actress since child- hood, Hunt has appeared in a number ofTV films and lately in thea trical fea hires tha t include Tlie WaterdanceandMr.Saturday Night. She was on Broadway in "Our Town" and in the Shakespeare in the Park prod uction of' The Tam- ing of the Shrew" with Morgan Freeman and Tracey Ullman.

Her whim town tea mod- estsummary of her ancestors' lives eventually led to a 10-year quest to uncover her past. True Woniai, an acclaimed first novel based on ac- counts of Windle's family history, is the result of her expedition. "This is just one of those unexpected miracles in life said Windle, whose normally reserved, slightly twanged voice almost bubbles when she mentions the novel which lias garnered her ac- colades from critics, noted authors and even TexasGov.Ann Richards. The book covers six gen- erations of Windle's family tree� spanningmorethan 100 years from Texas' war of independence to World War LI � and revolves around the lives of three women: See WOMAN page 10 HHPMHHHHKHH February 24, 1994 The East Carolinian 9 Midnight Cowboy still strong after 25 years (AFyWnmMidnightCow- boy opened in 19, it drew atten- tion because it so boldly went where nootherstudioreleasedared to go. Its themes of homosexuality, hustling and drug use, and its ca- sual nudity and raw language madea potentbrew for those times. Twenty-five years later, much of what is seen in the Acad- emy Award-winning movie is per- ceived as tame: Two decades of naked bodies, copulating couples and four-letter words has anesthe- tized us. No matter. The painful re- alism and universality of a human bond make this a film for all ages. With joe Buck (John Voight), a bright-eyed but dim Texas country boy who hopes to make his fame and fortune by hus- tling women in New York, and "Ratso" Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman), a gimpv, seedy littlecon man, Brit- ish director John Schlesinger etches an uncomfortable and harsh tab- leau of despairand dashed dreams. The print made to cel- ebrate the 25th anniversary of Midnight Cowboy has been refur- bished to brighten some of the watered colors and tone down some of the scratchiness. The soundtrack, with Harry Nilsson's marvelous theme song, "Everybody's Talkin has been converted to Dolby Stereo. There is an almost docu- mentary quality to it, a gritty but timeless ride through the 1960s; downtown bohemia meets Times Square squalor. Ratso gives us one of the earliest portrayals of urban homelessness, and with Joe, he shows us the creativity that goes into day to day survival. It is an odd coupling, one of those incred- ible screen friendships that both touchs and repels us at the same time. Schlesinger's pacing al- lows their friendship to develop slowly. By the end of the movie, Joe and Ratso form a special and lovely bond, one that gives the film its immense humanity. Voight has the right bal- ance between naivete and male swagger. But he never utters the obscenities the Joe Bucks of today use with such abandon. After leaping to stardom in The Graduate as the aimless and pampered Benjamin, Hoffman cre- ated another character of great di- mension with Ratso. There are wonderful sup- port performances by Brenda Vacarro as a wild lover and Svlvia Miles as a brassy Eastside matron who has an afternoon fling with Joe. Miles is Joe's first "client and in a memorable scene, she gets him to pay her $20 for a cab so she can meet her husband for din- ner. When first released, Mid- night Cowboy was given an x-rat- ing by the newly created MPA A's Rating Board. There's nudity and drug use, and also love-making scenes that reveal little and a ho- mosexual encounter in a movie theater that focuses on John Voight's face. The rating was amended a few years later to R, reflecting how the times were a- changing. The MGM-UA release was prod uced by Jerome Hellman.

Butmany of the paintingsweredoneduringthewarto rally people to the cause, and they romanticize the conflict. They show sentimental landscapes, a woman sol- dier arranging flowers in a trench, a soldier getting a haircut under the shade of bamboo trees. The Vietnamese are the heroes. By contrast, the American works are explosions of blood and fire: a "Napalmed Head" with its searing, black screams; "Peace a bloody Christ-like figure hanging from the blades of a helicopter gunship. The Vietnamese are thevictims. Through these works, ordinary Vietnamese for the first time have the chance to see the extent to which a war that their leaders had taught them to accept was so passionately andpainfullyrepudiatedbytheother side. One recent morning, museum researcher Nguyen Binh Ninh, 38, who fled U.S. bombings in her youth, said she preferred "War Baby" to a Vietnamese painting dis- played next to it.

(AP) � Armed with a diploma from a pres- tigious music school and deep in debt, Don Correu moved to this Ozarks music center in October to find a job as a professional drum- mer. Months later, he's still search- ing for a steady gig. Correu, 27, works in a conve- nience store for $6.25 an hour, stock- ing beer and soda, washing win- dows and manning the cash regis- ter. But he hasn't lost sight of his goal of making it big in America's new country-music mecca. "There is potential for being able to make money here, if you market yourself right Correu said. "Anything in this world is possible. Itdependshowmuchyou want to struggle Right now, Correu is definitely struggling. Correu (pronounced Cuh- ROO) graduated in May from the renowned Berklee College of Mu- sic in Boston. Trained in jazz and contemporary music, he figured Branson and its 30-plus theaters offered the best chance to launch his drumming career with a "name" entertainer�and to help pay off $40,000 in college loans. Correu grew up in St. Jo- seph, Mo and knew of Branson's reputation as an entertainment showplace. With theaters featur ingsuch performers as Mel Till is Kenny Rogers, Andy William- and Wayne Newton, and rug- ged mountain scenery and lakes. Branson draws 5 million visitors a year. "Everybody was talking about Branson booming, that there's so much work there as a musician Correu said as he wiped fingerprints from the glass doorsofabeercoolerat the Rapid Roberts store where he works.

He greets his German shep- herd puppy, Shotzie, changes out of his pin-striped smock and begins another full-time task � trying to find a drum- ming job with an entertainer such as Bobby Vinton or Shoji Tabuchi. Drummers at the top the- aters earn around $1,000 a week for the nine-month tourist sea- son.

Correu hopes someone from the theaters is in the audience and takes note of his talent. So far, he's met plenty of other mu- sicians but not many theater representatives. Theater officials say they are inundated with resumes, demo tapes and videos from would- be performers from across the country hoping to land a job.

Tae Kwon Do club takes exams By Cedric Van Buren Staff Writer The East Carolina Tae Kwon Do Club, in conjunction with Byung Lee's Tae Kwon Do, sponsored a Tae Kwon Do exhibition and black belt exam this past Saturday. Members of the East Caro- lina Tae Kwon Do Cl ub partici- pated well and gave the crowd of around three hundred some- thing very exciting to watch. To the audience it was just ka- rate, but to the testing black be'ts, it has become a way of life. Each testing black belt was put through grueling tests con- sisting of everything from dif- ferent forms, live contact, self- defense, breaking wood and centerblocks, to answering questions from an array of judges. If the black belts were suc- cessful at passing their tests, then they would earn their first- degree black belts. The night was full of ex- citement. The two parts most fans The Tae Kwon Do Club is just one of many clubs that ECU offers. To get involved just contact the Recreation Dept. in Christenbury. Photo by Cedric Van Buren enjoyed themost were thespar- ring and breaking exhibitions. The sparring was very exciting because in each match the test- ing black belts had to spar against non-testing black belts. The action was very heated and lightning quick. The breaking was very ex- citing because students got to see someone about the same size as the average student break through four or five centerblocks. A lot of talent was dis- played in this area; one testing black belt from an area high school broke a board while do- ing a flip in the air. In order to get a full feeling of this Tae Kwon Do exhibition one must first know the true purpose of this Korean art. Tae Kwon Do means "hand, foot art" or "art of the hand and foot This is the defi- nition of Tae Kwon Do, but Master Byung Leemakes it plainer when he says that "Tae Kwon Do is not learning how to win a fight, but rather to win against oneself not against oth- ers.

"We knew the winner of yesterday's game would be the catalyst today, and our kids went out and tried to put them away early head coach Gary Overton said. It was the excellent pitching of Mike Sanburn coupled with some timely two-out, two-strike hitting by Chad Triplett (two RBIs) and Jamie Borel (RBI, SB) that pro- pelled the Pirates. The frosty, rainy, overcast day did nothing to slow down the Pi- rate attack as they scored early and often, with three runs in thesecond inning, two runs in the third, and another run in the fourth. Scott Bermingham scored twice and Jason Head added another RBI to lead ECU to the win. Sanburn had a no-hitter through 4 13 innings, and gave up only four hits throughout the game. , He struck out the side in the fifth, giving him four strikeouts with only one walk for the game. The Pirates also threw some leather at the Rams. Third baseman Rick Britton and short- stop Chad Puckett combined for nine pu touts, some of which killed a few Ram rallies. VCU starter Michael Henke had some control problems early on, throwing two wild pitches that led to two Pirate runs. Addition- ally, the Pirates also stole on him with relative ease. Four different Pira tes had sto- len bases, setting themselves up in scoring position and executing perfectly Coach Overton's aggres- sive style of play. The Rams only run of the day came after a 30-minute rain delay before the start of the seventh VCU appeared pumped up com- ing out of the delay, feeling that the game was not yet out of hand. Sanburn, who had already thrown 97 pitches, was a little er- ratic , giving up a single and double to consecutive VCU hit- ters. ECU's coaches were con- cerned about a Ram comeback, but were soon relieved when Sanburn settled down to retire the side and kept ECU's lead atfive. Sanburn got the win for the Pirates, while Henke took the loss for the Rams. The win was East Carolina's fourth in a row, while VCU fell to 1-2, with both losses coming at the hands of the Pirates. ECU adds three new coaches (SID) � Jim Fleming, Cliff Yoshida and Willie Scott have joined the Fast Carolina University football coaching staff, school offi- cials announced Tuesday. Fleming, 34, will coach the out- side linebackers, Yoshida, 54, will coach the defensive line, and Scott, 35, will coach the tight ends. The three new coaches will re- place Bob Babich, who left ECU to join the football staff at the Univer- sity of Pittsburgh, ChrisThurmond and Theo Lemon, who have to pur- sue other business interests. "These three coaches are expe- rienced teachers and proven coaches said Pirate coach Steve Logan. "I couldn't be more pleased with that these group of men have joined us Jim Fleming comes to East Carolina after spending last season at Brown University as defensive coordinator. Before joining the staff of the Ivy League school, Fleming was the defensive coordinator for three seasons at Boise State Univer- sity. Fleming's Boise State's de- fenses led the Big Sky Conference in scoring defense in 1990 while advancing to the NCAA Division I- AA playoffs. His 1991 defense ranked first in the Big Sky in all major statistical categories and fin- ished first nationally in rushing defense. In 1992, the Broncos led the league in forced turnovers. Prior to coming to Boise State, Fleming served as a gradua te assis- tant coach for two years at the Uni- versity of South Carolina, working the Gamecocks' wide receivers. A1982 graduate of the Univer- sity of the South, Fleming and his wife, Leslie, have three children, Jimmy, Will and Kate. A 24-year college coaching vet- eran, Cliff Yoshida joins the Pirate staff after serving as defensive co- ordinatoratSouthern University at Baton Rouge, La. last season. Be- fore joining thejaguar staff, Yoshida spent six years at Wake Forest Uni- versity (1987-92), and six years at Virginia Tech (1981-86), coaching thedefensive line, under head coach Bill Dooley. While at Virginia Tech, Yoshida played a key role in a Hokie de- fense that ranked among the na- tional leaders in both rushing and scoring defense. His most well- known pupil during that time was BruceSmith, the 19840utland Tro- phy winner, and the number one pick in the 1985 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills, his current team. Yoshida was also an assistant coach at Duke for three seasons (1978-80) and Wake Forest for five seasons (1973-77). He was the de- fensivecoordinator for each of those seasons with the exception of the 1974 campaign, where he coached the defensive line. The 1963 graduate of Cal Poly Pitino suspends players (AP) � Kentucky coach Rick Pitino did not find any humor in learning that three of his players wereinvolved ina free-throwswap- ping scheme against Vanderbilt. "They thought it was funny after the game, but it's anything but funny Pitino said Tuesday. "And now they look at it and don't think it's funny The players � guard Travis Ford, center Gimel Martinez and forward JaredPrickett�were hit with one-game suspensions. They will not travel with the sev- enth-ranked Wildcats to play at Ten- nessee tonight. "I would rather go to Tennes- see knowing that we did the right thing than to go down there just thinking about winning or losing Pitino said. The players were not aval lable for comment. "This type of behavior cannot be tolerated from a Kentucky ballplayer Pitino said. "It's im- portant that all the kids that look up to Kentucky players as role models understand that they made a mis- take, a spontaneous mistake. "These three menareoutstand- ing young men who work very, very hard, but they made a mis- take Ford is averaging 12pointsand 6.3 assists and Prickett averages 8.6 points and 7.1 rebounds, and both are starters. Martinez averages 7.1 points and 2.8 rebounds. The Southeastern Conference also admonished the officiating crew of Don Rutledge, Kerry Sitton and Gerald Boudreaux on Tues- day, after a review of tapes and reports from Saturday's game at Nashville, Term. "Although this was a correct- able error, the game officials did not recognize the error during the correctable time period accord- ing to an SEC news release from its Birmingham, Ala office. "It has been stressed totheofficiatingcrew that although it was an inadvertent error, their administration of the free throws was unacceptable The conference said "correc- tive action will be taken with this officiating crew by the conference office to ensure that errors of this nature do not reoccur Ford had acknowledged that players who were fouled in the 77- 69 victory over Vanderbilt allowed another player with a better free- throw percentage to go to the line in their place, apparently when offi- cials were confused about who should shoot. Pitino said he called Vanderbilt coach Jan van Breda Kolff and apologized for the incident, and that both agreed the free throws didn't influence the outcome of the game. "We built this program over the last five years where we believe there is solid integrity � winning and losing the correct way Pitino said.

Erik Sauve led the way for the Rams, going 3-3 on the day with an RBI double that scored leftfielder Larry Porter in the sixth, to tie the game at one apiece. VCU starting pitcher Mike Ketterman pitched into the 10th inning, al- lowing just two runs in a strong early season out- ing. East Carolina's Head had a strong day for the Pirates, as he went 4-5 at the plate, with an RBI. East Carolina reliever Johnny Beck got the win in relief, while VCU re- liever Tommy Nuckols took the loss. ECU would prevail again yesterday against VCU 6-1. .��� z 12 The East Carolinian February 24. 1994 Radinsky sidelined (AP) � While the fans flocked to see Michael Jordan hit, the Chi- cago White Sox focused on a player who wasn't on the field. On Tuesday, the team an- nounced thatrelieverScott Radinsky likely will miss the season while un- dergoing treatment to prevent the spread of Hodgkin's disease. - Radinsky, 25, had a malignant lymph node removed from his neck Monday. He has returned home to California to begin chemotherapy and radiation treatments that could last six to eight months. "The cure rate on this type of cancer is 80 to90 percent White Sox general manager Ron Schueler said. "Thedoctorsare real optimistic. They think he will be fine and even to the point that hell be weakened by all this treatment, but at times will be able to do little physical therapy to keep his muscle structure up The attention at Ed Smith Sta- dium in Sarasota, Fla was on Jor- dan, who faced major league pitch- ing for the first time. Jordan saw 30 pitches from Jose DeLeon and took 16 of them. He bunted twice and swing 12 times, fouling off four. Of the eight balls Jordan put in play, one was hit well to left-center and one was lined over DeLeon. Jordan took all four curveballs from DeLeon, and also broke his bat on a grounder. "I was very happy with the way I stood in there Jordan said. "I didn't think I stepped out. I stayed withmy strideand everything.

Athletics manager Tony La Russa said he expects Henderson to be in camp Thursday, when the full team is due. In the past, Henderson has paid attention to the mandatory reporting date (March 2 this year) rather than the voluntary date. "I talked to Rickey last week and I think there's an excellent chance that he will be here Thurs- day La Russa said. "After talking to him, I'd be disappointed if he wasn't here. "If Rickey is here on Thursday, that would besignificant La Russa said. "He's always been a March arrival.

The Big 12? The Big Eight and Southwest Four? Some sort of new name may be needed if Southwest Conference sdioolsTexas,TexasA&M,TexasTech and Baylor accept reported offers to join the Big Eight to form one big made-for-televison conference.

TheSWCwouldbe hard-pressed to survive with only Southern Meth- odist, TexasChrisfJan, Rice andHous- ton. Those four reportedly were told by the Big Eight in a conference call Monday that they will not be invited. A Big Fight expansion involving Texas, A&M, Tech and Baylor would put the league in a better position to negotiate a television contract � the original reason the twoleaguesbegan bilking about getting together. Talks sped up the last several weeks once it became obvious there was no way to continue any form of the College Football Association, the affiliation of conferences that negoti- ated the current television deal that expires after the 1995- season. With the breakup of theCFA, the SWC and Big Eight are doing what they can to wrangle the most lucrative contract possible beginning with the 1996-97 season, officials said. The first step may be forming a new confer- ence, then negotiating TV deals with the networks. At this point, officials are tight- lipped about what exactly is going on between the conferences.
