Freshmen will eat on campus or else
Mandatory meal plans to provide sense of community, money for Todd Dining Hall
By Tammy Zion
Staff Writer
Dining services may help
make the "freshman fifteen"
weight-gain myth a reality for in-
coming students next fall. All
freshmen residing on campus next
year will be required to purchase
a nine or 14 meal plan along
with signing a housing agreement.
"This is a way that freshmen
and their parents can be assured
that they will have food service
for the entire semester and have a
predictable amount of money for
that said Frank Salamon, direc-
tor of dining services.
Meal plans are priced at $825
Whales
beached
COROLLA, N.C. (AP) ? A
mass stranding of whales along the
Outer Banks during the weekend
had a relatively happy ending after
most apparently found their way
back to sea.
Eight pilot whales were
stranded along a stretch of beach
on theOuterBankson Saturday. By
Sunday morning, one whale lay
dead on the sand, and another's
body apparently washed out to sea.
The other six are thought to have
survived.
"I've been here 15 years, and
I can't recall another stranding of
this size said Rhett White, direc-
tor of the State Aquarium on
Roanoke Island.
"I was really pleased when I
talked to a sheriff's deputy this
morning and he said there was only
one dead whale left on the beach.
To be honest, I fully expected to
find between six to eight dead ani-
mals White told The News & Ob-
server of Raleigh.
White was on his way back to
the aquarium Saturday afternoon
after picking up a beached harbor
seal near the Virginia border when
he saw a group of vehicles on the
beach near Corolla.
He stopped to see what was
happening, and saw a whale strug-
gling to swim in the shallow water
between the beach and a sandbar
about 200 feet offshore.
Nine whales eventually
crossed the sandbar toward the
beach. One managed to swim back
out, but the other eight floundered
in shallow water before rough surf
tossed them onto thebeachbetween
Corolla and Penny's Hill, a large
sand dune 212 miles to the north.
Weekend vacationers and lo-
cal residents tried to push the whales
back to sea, but strong waves
shoved the animals back ashore.
"By 3 p.m two of the whales
were dead, and all the others were
suffering, struggling and breath-
ing heavily White said.
The National Marine Fishery
Service's laboratory in Beaufort
plans to take tissue samples from
the dead whale for analysis, White
said.
Pilot whales are known along
the Outer Banks as "black fish" for
their total lack of markings. The
animals have long, curved dorsal
fins, pointed lower flippers and
bulbous heads.
The whales beached Satur-
day ranged from nine to 14 feet
long. Adult pilot whales can grow
up to 20 feet in length.
White said pilot whales tend
to be involved in mass strandings.
per semester for a 14 package,
and $720 per semester for a 9
meal plan. Both plans give the
student a $100 declining balance
account.
"That averages out to $3.25
a meal (on the 14 plan), there's
no way they can do better than
that in an off-campus situation, a
restaurant or even with them feed-
ing themselves Salamon said.
Of the 16 UNC system
schools, ECU is the last college to
require a meal plan. UNC-Chapel
Hill only requires residents to
participate in a declining balance
program.
The new Todd dining hall,
which has delayed opening until
May, is another reason dining ser-
vices is in need of funding.
"Todd dining hall is a $5
million building Salamon said.
"In order to get the bond holders
to give us their money to build the
building, we had to assure them
some sort of guarantee that they
would get their money back from
us. Instituting a required fresh-
man housing and dining program
was our way of guaranteeing them
a return of their money
Salamon feels the construc-
tion of Todd and the requirement
of a freshman meal plan creates a
community for freshman students.
"We, as a division of student
life, are trying to re-focus our ef-
forts oncreatinga residential cam-
pus community said Salamon.
"Dining services is obviously a
significant part of that. A lot of
socialization takes place in our
dining halls that's something
that this campus wants to foster.
We want students to get out of the
residence halls, get out of the class-
rooms, meet other students to
make the networking connections
that help them. That's what stu-
dent development is all about
Keeping that community in
mind, dining services is renovat-
ing the Wright Place, and plans to
close Jones dining facility for reno-
vations when Todd opens.
"Jones is going to become
the new Galley Salamon said.
"We're going to move the Galley
into Jones and expand it create
a food court probably a true
food court with a Taco Bell or
Chick Fillet
Salamon is planning a com-
plete student entertainment cen-
ter for the new Galley, including
two big screen TVs, a stage for
bands or comedians and even a
karaoke machine. Outside appear-
ance will change as well. Salamon
is planning to take out more park-
ing spaces to create a patio area in
front of the Galley.
"We want to ma ke these resi-
dence halls part of a community,
we don't want to wa Ik into a park-
ing lot, that's like living in a big
city he said.
This freshman require-
ment has been in planning for
four years. Salamon said that
upper classmen living on cam-
pus will not be required to pur-
chase meal plans unless other
dining facilities are built.
"Freshmen coming into
the system have better things
to do than figure out how they're
going to feed themselves, said
Salamon. "We feel it's best to
integrate freshmen into the sys-
tem by providing them a hous-
ing and dining package

Grad. SGA forming
On Friday afternoon, ECU
graduate students held the first
organiza tiona 1 meeting of the East
Carolina Graduate and Profes-
sionalStudentOrganization (ECU
GPSO).
ECU graduate and profes-
sional students developed the or-
ganization to merge with the cur-
rent Graduate Student Advisory
Council. They hope to receive bet-
ter representation in the univer-
sity and to gain control of some of
the spending of their student fees.
Anthony Rosati, Informa-
tion and Exchangecoordinatorfor
the National Association of
Graduate and Professional Stu-
dents, Inc. spoke at the meeting
and explained how graduate stu-
dents across North Carolina and
throughout the country have be-
come organized. Rosati represents
a network which provides infor-
mation and financial services to
member universities.
Funding was the main issue
of the meeting. Rosati recom-
mended that graduate students
present concrete evidence to the
university that they are paying
for services they do not use.
"Graduate students and
undergraduate students are not

are just students with different

Currently, funds are appro-
priated by the SGA, where grad u-
atestudentsareallotted two seats.
These funds go to the Graduate
Student Advisory Council
(GSAC) which determines how
these funds are spent.
"Over the last five years,
graduate and first professional
students, while comprising 16.65
percent of the student body, have
only received 4.61 percent of the
money appropriated by the SGA
to students at ECU said SGA
graduate representative Michael
Hadley.
"Some services are used by
both graduate and undergradu-
ate students, but there are other
things that undergraduate stu-
dents use and graduate students

There are bloodhounds
around campus sniffing you out
to donate blood.
Last week, a blood mobile
was held in Mendenhall. Thanks
to the efforts of ECU'S volun-
teer program and the blood-
hounds, blood was taken from
173 donors.
These bloodhounds are
not dogs, they are graduate stu-
dents in the health education
department. The bloodhound
program was implemented four
years ago by a person in the
Wilson Chapter of the Ameri-
can Red Cross. The person who
"hunts" down the most donors
is awarded with a trophy. Stu-
dents selected as bloodhounds
were given T-shirts to promote
the bloodmobile held last Mon-
day, as well as upcoming blood-
mobiles. This is the first year
the bloodhound program has
been implemented on our cam-
pus.

Cold War tit-for-tat escalates in wake of spy scandal
MOSCOW (AP) ? Russia
expelled a U.S. diplomat Mon-
day in retaliation for the expul-
sion of a Russian intelligence of-
ficer accused of involvement in
a Washington spy scandal.
The expelled American
diplomat was identified in Rus-
sian media as James L. Morris, a
counselor at the U.S. Embassy in
Moscow. The U.S. Embassy and
officials in Washington refused
to confirm the name.
The exchange of expu lsions
? Russia's diplomat was or-
dered out on Friday ? was remi-
niscent of the Cold War and
threatened to chill U.SRussian
relations.
"We have received a re-
quest from the Russian govern-
ment to withdraw a senior offi-
cial of the embassy. We ex-
pressed our great regret and con-
cern over this action the U.S.
Embassy said in a statement that
did not mention Morris by name.
In Washington, a Clinton
administration official who
spoke on condition he not be
named suggested any tit-for-tat
gamesmanship between the two
countries may be over for now:
"We have no further plans at
this time to take further action
The United States had ex-
pected the expulsion of an
American from Moscow since
Alexander Lysenko, the chief of
Russia's intelligence station in
Washington, was declared per-
sona non grata on Friday and
ordered to leave the United
States within seven days.
U.S. officials said Lysenko
"was in a position to be respon-
sible" for CIA officer Aldrich H.
Ames and his wife, Rosario, who
were charged last week with spy-
ing for Moscow since 1985.
Ames, who once headed
the CIA branch in charge of So-
viet counterintelligence, alleg-
edly sold secrets to the Soviet
Union and later Russia for more
than $1.5 million.
U .S. officials believe the in-
formation he gave Moscow may
have led to the execution of as
many as 10 Russians who were
spying for the United States.

dent Boris Yeltsin fired the head

NATO orders air strikes
U.S. fishters shoot down Serbian planes
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia
(AP) ? Two American F-16
fighter jets fired missiles to shoot
down four Bosnian Serb planes
that violated the U.N. no-fly
zone over Bosnia Monday.
NATO said the Serb planes ap-
parently had dropped bombs.
It was the first time war-
planes flying under NATO
command have fired on planes
since the no-fly zone was de-
clared in October 1992. It also
marked the first military action
by the alliance in its 44-year
history.
Adm. Jeremy M. Boorda,
the U .S. officer who com mands
NATO's southern front, said
the American pilots saw the
Serb planes make "bombing
maneuvers" and then wit-
nessed explosions on the
ground. One U.S. plane then
shot down three Serb planes
and the second downed a
fourth, Boorda said in Naples,
Italy. Two Serb planes escaped.
None of the American
crew was hurt. It was not
known if the Bosnian Serb pi-
lots bailed out, officials said.
The F- 16s were based a t A viano
Air Base in northern Italy.
Serb officials denied their
planes were in the air, but a
Serb source confirmed thatfour
Serb aircraft were shot down.

Gainesville relieved by Rolling plea
Relief was enormous among students and administrators at
the University of Florida when a Louisiana drifter abruptly pleaded
guilrv'tothel990murdersoffi'ecollegestudentsjustashistrialwas
scheduled to begin. Danny Harold Rolling, 39, stunned courtroom
spectators Feb. 15, including the victims' family members, when he
pleaded guilt' to five counts of first-degree murder, three counts of
sexual batter)' and three counts of armed burglary. The Independent
University Alligator published a special afternoon edition with news
of Rolling's plea. The admission to the charges was not par toa plea-
bargain arrangement. The prosecution still intends to seek thedeath
penalty, although defense lawyers say they plan to demonstrate,
that Rolling was mentally ill at the time of the killings.
ACLU files suit over National Merit Scholarships
Young women don't get their fair share of National Merit
Scholarships because the awards are based on tests that are biased
against them, charges a lawsuit filed by the AmericanCivil Liberties
Union. The ACLU filed a complaint Feb. 15 on behalf of the National
Center for Fair & Open Testing, with the U.S. Department of
Education'sOf fice for Civil Rights. The suit charges the Educational
Testing Service and the College Entrance Examination Board with
violating a law that bars recipients of federal funds from discrimi-
nating on the basis of sex. The College Board sponsors the Prelimi-
nary Scholastic Aptitude TestNational Merit Scholarship Qualify-
ing Test, and the ETS administers it. According to FairTest, more
than three-fifthsof National MeritScholarships go to males because
they score higher on the PS AT NMSQT, even though females earn
better grades in both high school and college when matched for the
same academic courses.
Students to construct Rube Goldberg coffeemakers
On Mar. 26, teams of students will gather at Purdue Univer-
sity to take part in the seventh annual National Rube Goldberg
Machine Contest by setting in motion the world's most ludicrous
coffeemakers. Their goal is to successfully make a drinkable cup of
coffee in as complicated manner as possible. The contests and the
machines are inspired by the late cartoonist Rube Goldberg, who
drew outlandish chain-reaction machines that accomplished simple
tasks. Armed with the principles of physics and engineering, from
hydraulics to electronics and aerodynamics to gravity, students are
charged with designing a machine tliat accomplishes a simple task
in 20 or more steps.

PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) ?
A judge ruled today that the de-
fense could show graphic anti-
abortion videos in the trial of an
activ ist accused of killing an abor-
tion clinic doctor.
Circuit Judge John Parnham
ruled without explanation after a
hearing shortly before opening
statements were to begin. He had
earl ier rejected a similar objection
by the prosecution that the videos
and other anti-abortion material
would be irrelevant and prejudi-
cial.
Assistant State Attorney
James Murray this time argued a
two-month gap between defen-
dant Michael F. Griffin's initial
exposure to the anti-abortion pro-
paganda and the slaying was too
long to support the defense's
"heat-of-passion" theory.
The prosecutor said the de-
fense was relying on case law in-
volving husbands who killed af-
ter finding their wives in bed with
RUSSIA
other men. He said that is not the
situation in this case.
Defense lawyer William
Eddins disagreed.
"In view of this defendant's
religious background the heat-
of-passion defense appliesequally
to this set of facts just as it would
in a husband-wife situation
Eddins said.
Griffin, 32, a Christian fun-
damentalist, is accused of shoot-
ing Dr. David Gunn, 47, of Euf ala,
Ala three times in the back last
March 10.
The physician was shot as he
arrived for work at Pensacola
Women's Medical Services while
an anti-abortion demonstration
was being held on the opposite
side of the clinic.
A 12-member jury and two
alternates were sworn in Sunday
after a weeklong selection process
that included private questioning
about the panelists' viewson abor-
tion.

this money only pays registration

The Psychology
The
Subject suffering from
Credit Card Theft Nervosa.
emotional security of the Photocard, now with No Annual Fee.
The Citibank Classic Visa8 instills in students feelings of safety, security, and general wellness
not unlike those experienced in the womb. Therefore, it is the mother of all credit cards.
1 Some experts attribute these feelings to the Citibank Photocard, the first credit card
with your photo on it. A voice inside says, "This is me, really
me (As opposed to, "Who the heck is that?"?a common
response to the photo on one's Student ID.) It's an immedi-
ate form of ID, a boost to your self-image, f Of course if
your card is ever lost or stolen and a stranger is prevented
from using it, you'll feel exceptionally good (showing no
signs of Credit Card Theft Nervosa). Other experts point
to other services, such as The Lost Wallet? Service that can
replace your card usually within 24 hours. Or the 24-Hour
Subject after receiving Gtibank . c
Classic Visa Photocard. Customer Service line, your hotline if you will, for any
card-related anxiety whatsoever, f Further analysis reveals three services that protect the
services you make on the Citibank Classic Visa card, at no additional cost. 1. Buyers
Security can cover them against accidental damage, fire or theft, for 90 days from the date
of purchase1 (preventing, of course, Insecurity). 2. Citibank Lifetime Warranty allows one
to extend the warranty for the expected service life of eligible products up to 12 years.2
3. And Citibank Price Protection assures you of the best price. You need only see the same
item advertised in print for less, within 60 days, and Citibank will refund the difference up
to $150' (hence no Post Purchase Depression). I Special student savings are particularly
therapeutic. For example, you can receive a $20 Airfare Discount3 on any domestic flight.
(Case studies indicate that a Fear of Flying is overcome when Spring Break in sunny Florida
is a possibility.) Not to mention savings on mail order purchases, sports equipment, maga-
zines and music; a low variable interest rate4 of 15.4 and No Annual Fee. fl Suffice it to
say, you'll have a credit card you can depend on while building a credit card history. So, call
1-800-CITIBANK (1-800-248-4226), extension 19, to apply over the phone (students don't
need a job or cosigner) or to have your photo added
to your Citibank Classic Visa card. If we say that a
sense of Identity is the first component of the Citibank
Classic Visa card, a sense of Security the second, and
a sense of Autonomous Will from your newfound
financial independence the third, don't be crazyCall.

Massacre signals wake-up call to Mideast
Peace. A seemingly simple concept,
but possibly the most difficult ideal to at-
tain. Factors inhibiting the implementation
of it range from religious differences,
ethnicity, government control and, in in-
creasing instances, the beliefs of extrem-
ists.
The history of the Mideast is both an
uplifting and heartbreaking one. For Chris-
tians, Muslims and Jews, this is their reli-
gious touchstone ? the cradle of their spiri-
tual beginnings and a place where reli-
gious intolerance runs deep.
Last Friday, at least 43 Muslims were
gunned down by a Jewish settler in Hebron,
Israel while kneeling at prayer. The man
responsible was then beaten to death. In
some ways it wasn't a surprise ? since
September's peace pledge between PLO
Chairman Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime
Minister Yitzhak Rabin, the only question
was when such an incident as that would
occur, since extremists on both sides con-
tinually vowed to sabatoge the initiative.
Friday, that pledge came true and along
with it came continued unrest in much of
the occupied territories.
In response to this weekend's incident,
the Israeli Cabinet voted to disarm some
Jewish extremists, forcibly if necessary, and
was studying the possibility of outlawing
extremist factions. The main target of the
crackdown is Kach, a militant anti-Arab
movement founded by the late Rabbi Meir
Kahane.
The man responsible for Friday's blood-
shed was a Kahane follower. Kach has sev-
eral hundred active members and the sup-
port of a few hundred more. They serve in
the army, more often than not, carry
submachine guns and have been excluded
from national elections.
But peace in this land doesn't come easy.
Hebron is the Dodge City of the West Bank,
the Sarajevo of the Middle East. And while
there is no easy solution, the most logical
steps to take would be the removal of 130,000
residents in 144 Jewish settlements before
self-rule is implemented.
The best hope for peace is that neither
Rabin or Arafat can afford to let the talks
collapse, since their political futures and cred-
ibility rest on this.
Maybe this situation is more like Bosnia
than surface study warrants. Bosnia's
troubles are steeped in ethnic discord. And
only now, in the wake of continual unrest
and inhumane actions, has the phoenix risen
out of the ashes. It could be that only after
something as unfortunate as a massacre can
both parties be encouraged to move swiftly
towards an agreement.
Rabin is ready to release hundreds of
Palestinian political prisoners ? an encour-
aging step on the road to peace. Hopefully
the succeeding steps will be quick to follow,
because in places like Bosnia and the Mid-
east, time is a luxury.

Welfare entitlements bankrupting country
Our president and his ad-
ministration are still desperately
trying to convince us that there
is a health care crisis in this coun-
try. They have been doing this
for more than two years now,
ever since then Gov. Clinton be-
gan running
for the presi-
dency. In those
intervening
two years, not
one concrete
step has been
made to deal
with this prob-
lem. There has
been a lot of
talk by politi- "m
cians about it, but if the fact that
politicians are talking about
something has ever accom-
plished anything, I am not aware
of it. Yet this crisis, given two
years of neglect, has somehow
failed to bring about the end of
the republic. It has even failed to
affect the vast majority of Ameri-
cans. One might begin to think
that our president has trouble
telling what actually constitutes
a crisis.
Well Mr. President, there is
a problem which if not yet a cri-
sis, is rapidly approaching that
point. It does threaten our
country's existence. You even
promised on the campaign trail
to do something about it. It is
welfare. Even liberal members
of your own party, such as Daniel
Patrick Monehayn, are urging
that this be tackled before health
care. It is past time to end wel-
fare as we know it, to use your
own phrase, both for economic
and social reasons.
Economically, welfare and
other entitlements are bankrupt-
ing the country. Even if every-
thing goes according to the
president's plan, the gross defi-
The well known and
often stated vicious
cycle of welfare is
trapping generations
of the poor in the
slavery of
dependancy.
cit, which is the official federal
budget deficit minus the Social
Security surplus (which is only
included to make the deficit ap-
pear smaller) will begin to rise
again after the next fiscal year.
According to the administration's
???l own Office of
Manage-
ment and
Budget, the
gross deficit
will reach a
low of $236
billion with
the budget
for 1995,
which the
l,?ll? president
just introduced. In fiscal '96 it will
grow to $240 billion; by fiscal '98 it
will be $276 billion, an increase of
17 percent in just three years.
Even with the Social Security sur-
plus added, the deficit will reach a
low of $173 billion, and then in-
crease again. (Just as an aside,
while the media is praisingClinton
for political courage, this $173 bil-
lion is more than Reagan's last
three deficits, for which the press
excoriated him.) The source which
is fueling the deficit is domestic
entitlement spending, especially
with all the defense cuts of the
past few years. During the eight
years of the Reagan Administra-
tion, entitlement spending grew
by an annual average of 1.6 per-
cent. Clinton's projected budget
would increase it by an average of
3.5 percent per year. Entitlements
already make up nearly half of
federal spending, and the percent-
age keeps growing. By 1998 it will
make up 56 percent of the federal
outlays. Remember, these figures
are all based upon the presump-
tion that everything will go ex-
actly as planned for the next four
years.
Even more important than
these economic imperatives is
what welfare is doing to our soci-
ety. The well known and often
stated vicious cycle of welfare is
trapping generations of the poor
in the slavery of dependency. No
one disputes this, yet we seem
unwilling to face the problem. Yet
even this is not the worst aspect of
what is happening to our society.
Welfare has effectively de-
stroyed the lower class black fam-
ily, something cen tu ries of slavery
and racism could not. It is rapidly
doing the same to lower class fami-
lies of other races. Despite what
we are told in the media (sorry,
Murphy), stable two parent fami-
lies are necessary to the mainte-
nance of an orderly society. Young
men who are raised without a fa-
ther are much more likely to end
up on the street, resorting to vio-
lence against society to make their
way. To blame the current rash of
violence and drug use among poor
blacks to racism, poverty and lack
of government spending is obvi-
ously wrong to anyone with a
sense of history. One hundred
years ago, the poor were much
poorer, more oppressed and suf-
fered much worse and overt rac-
ism than today, yet the family
stayed intact. It is only with the
birth of the Great Society of
Johnson thatourcurrentproblems
began.
If we are to keep our system
or public assistance, we must im-
mediately make the necessary re-
forms. We must stop encouraging
out-of-wedlock births. We must
find a way of making it clear to
those who accept public assistance
that they have a responsibility
those who are assisting them. Most
importantly, we must make wel-
fare what it was meant to be: A
safety net for those who are tem-
porarily down on their luck, not a
way if life.
By Barbara Irwin
Ability tracking: a veiled separatist tactic
Once upon a time in America,
there were two towns called Little
Rock and Montgomery thatdecided
to wage their own little wars against
the evils of discrimination and rac-
ism. They endured hard-fought
battles to purify the souls of men
whocommitted these heinouscrimes
against their fellowbmther and when
the smoke settled, a few undying
embersof hatred continued to flicker
here and there, but for the most part,
everyone lived happily ever after.
Prescribing to this American
fairy tale does not in many ways
suggest an ignorance among the so-
ciety of the 1990s, but rather, it signi-
fies that atone point in our educated
lives, we all took an American His-
tory class and basically understood
the underlying premiseof what may
potentially occur when a group of
individual's rights are threatened.
Even though the aforemen-
tioned tale is severely lacking in de-
tail, it strikes dangerously close to
the brevity that many high school
textbooks and teachers use when
skimming through this significant
chapter in our era of fighting for and
understanding Kill equality among
all people.
It may interest you to know
that these brief teachers arc usually
white and the stunted textbook is a
new edition passed out to white stu-
dents at white schools. And why?
Because we white folks don't need to
botherourselves with the trivial mis-
haps that nave nothing to do with
our ail tiireorourracc. Furthermore,
these white teachersand their white
school superintendents have for long
exhibited that the black students are
too dumb, lazy and second-rate to
care, so the history is taught in the
same brief way, but with an older,
hand-me-down text.
If you don't believe these tac-
tics still apply in the 1990s, consider
the embarrassing case going on ri gh t
now in Rockford, 111. (Yes, racism
exists in the north, too.) The Rock-
ford 111. public school system is fac-
ing some very heavy legal action
because for the past 30 years, it has
practiced some very heavily deliber-
ate educational apartheid with its
students. The white studentsarestill
separated from the black students
and enjoy such imposed luxuries as
separate drinking fountains. Before
school begins, white students are
alk wed tosociali7eoutsideand play
basketball, while the blacksare forced
to remain on die buses. Usually quite
the pacifist, I'm beginning to believe
if there was ever a cause for hand-
guns at school, tliis would be it!
Rockford school officials con-
tend that the separation is due solely
to "ability tracking which is widely
used by school districts and colleges
throughout the country but, thank
God, not as blatantly as in Rockford.
Ability tracking is simply a tool used
for placement but is supposed to be
based on test scores, not skin color. In
Rockford, whitestudentswho tested
poorly were deliberately put into
classes for gifted students while
blacks who tested highly wereplaced
in basicclasses. Uh, hey, guys, I don't
really think you grasped the concept
of abiliti tracking.
John Schmidt, the lawyer for
the school district, contends that
none of this was the result of rac-
ism. "To me he chants, "racist is
a conscious attitude, like running
around with hoods and white
sheets Hey, John! Wake up! Rac-
ism can be as subtle as overlook-
ing the Hispanic guy next in line
at a restaurant, flipping the chan-
nel on the TV because all the ac-
tors are black, or perpetuating
the school system that for 30 years
has gotten away with it because
thev use the term "ability track-
ing" as their defense.
Lx?t's not make the mistake
of believing that racism will ever
die, because it won't. I contend
that, if whites choose to be racist
and discriminate, it's not because
blacks are too dumb, lazy or sec-
ond-rate, but quite the opposite.
Racism is bred out of fear, hatred
isonlya resultingsymptom. And
fear the black population, we
should, but out of respect. They
have worked hard to achieve a
status representing growth and
intellect, all the while maintain
ing a tremendous sense of family,
community and religion.
There exists in all of us a
piece of the Rockford, 111. mental
ity against other cu 1 tures, as well
as our own. But it's time we start
viewing and studying incidents
like these as well as those in Mont-
gomery, Ala, Little Rock, Ark
and Greenville, N.C. as learning
experiences that should serve to
remind us how much we all de-
serve the simple respect of being
treated equally and fairly.
Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
As you ma v or may not know, the East Caro-
lina Cheerleaders and Dance Team received a bid
to compete in the National Cheer leading and Dance
Team Competition in San Diego, California. This is
the first time for the Cheerleading squad and the
second time forthe Dance Team, and a great honor
for both teams
Even though our Cheerleaders placed 12th in
the nation and our Dance Team placed 11 th in the
nation, in the preliminary round, the Athletic De-
partment has refused their request to go and com-
pete in the Finals.
It is amazing how selective the Athletic De-
partment can be. I am sure that if the basketball
team received a bid to go to the NCAA Tourna-
ment the Athletic Department would jump at
the chance to send them. The same would be
true for the football team, if they would have
received a bid for a bowl game, the Athletic
Department would have bent over backwards
to send them.
I feel that theathletes in these squads should
be given the opportunity to defend their na-
tional ranking in the same way as the rest of the
athletic programs at East Carolina. Go ECU!

To the Editor:
The problem of parking spaces in Greenville
is, indeed, a tired subject, but I would like to know
on what authority individuals claim to deny others
parking. University students and residents have
long squabbled over the few spaces available. Must
construction workers now enter the rumble as well?
Do entire streets (including parking spaces) have to
be blocked off? What jurisdiction do the university
and other private contractors have to rope off an
entire row of parking spaces so that they can have
plenty of room tor their own vehicles1 If Ms. Jane
Fix-it is hired by Mr. Town Resident, can she block
off an area to assure herself of parking during the
time she works for him? No one, including these
workers, should be deprived of the joy of searching
fora space. Specifically, I am referring to the current
construction at ECU Chancellor Eakin's residence.
Most of that end of Jarvis Street has been blocked
off to parking for days. I do understand that the
construction itself is important in the interests of
beautification. However, does it have more sig-
nificance than the renovations of any other resi-
dence in downtown Greenville? I find it feasible
to close a section of the street for a day or two, but
this has been going on for at least two weeks and
has vet to show signs of completion. The time
limit for road obstruction lias long since expired.
As a resolution to this conflict, 1 demand no less
than the immediate return of the streets to
Greenville citizens.

Successful fundraising at Rock for Real
Photo by Leslie Petty
Rock for Real was a great success for Real Crisis Center at the Attic on Thursday night. There were several
bands such as the Treehuggers, Sex, Love and Money, Breed 1 and Acme Blues.
By Steve Griffin
Staff Writer
"he Fifth Annual Rock for Real
concert at the Attic had its most
successful turn out with around
400 people attending the show.
This was a fundraising event tor
the Real Crisis Center and featured
some local bands that put on a
great show.
One ot the local cover bands,
Mother Nature, removed them-
selves from the benefit right before
the show. The band thought thev
should have been headlining the
show instead of being second to
play. Bass player Warren Sumner
said, "We're the biggest band as far
asnumbersand wedid not want to
let down our fans Sumner also
said Mother Nature's fans wouldn't
show up until about 11:00and they
were scheduled to play at 10:00.
The band asked the Center if thev
could play at the 1:00 slot and the
center refused to change the time
slots. Mother Nature then removed
themselves from the benefit and
played at a fraternity party Thurs-
day- night Sumner said, "It was a
business dec is ion we had to make.
We are not unsympathetic to the
crisis center, it was ju.st a misun-
derstanding
Acme Blues, one of the better
bands, was the first band to play.
I he singer had an impressive,
bluesy voice. I he next band was
thecoverband Treehuggers. Let's
just sav they were pretty good at
playing other people's music. The
band played anything from Snoop
Doggy Dog to Stone Temple Pilots.

when they started rapping.
Bv this time the crowd was
ready tor some real livemusic. The
next band. Sex, Love and Money
ga e the crowd exactly what thev
wanted, play ing some fast-paced,
solid music. The band plays
hardcore music, so the crowd was
slamming and getting crazy by tins
time. Breed 13 was the last band to
play and ended the night with a
bang. I ead singer Brad Rice came

Bv the time the show ended, the

Daw Matthews was led by

the songs were off their latest

A lot of times people watch
the opening act in anticipation of
the headlining act, but that wasn't
the case here. The show was sold
out, and there were still times
when no one was at the bar; the
music was distracting people from

and that having to cheat to win really
bothers him. But the message the film
relays is that cheating in small ways is
okay but not in huge amounts.
Pete lies throughout the recruit-
ing process as he tells each family
different versions of his religion.
When he recruits a player from a
Catholic highschool, he tells theboy's
mother that he too was raised Catho-
lic. He tries to sway the family of
Ricky Roe (Matt Nover) who live in
rural Indiana he tells them his is a Free
Will Baptist. And when he attempts
to sway Neon Bedou (Shaquille
O'Neal), who hails from Louisiana,
he tells him that he was raised in a
Pentecostal Church. Pete even goes
so far as to join in a fervent congrega-
tion singing hymns.

will do anything to recruit players.

Pete if he would be recruiting him if
he could not play basketball, Pete
hesitantly says no. Neon replies: "At
leastyou'rehonest'Yettheaudience
knowsotherwiseand thecharacterof
Pete becomes confusing.
Pete's sudden pangs of con-
scienceneartheendof BlueChips ring
false. If the audience cannot identify
with the main character, then a major
part of the film's appeal is lost
Luckily Blue Chips compensates
for its v eak story by ha ving a bevy of
appearancesby basketball greats. Bob
Cousy, Jerry Tarkanian, Jim Boeheim,
Calvert Chaney, Rex Walters, Dick
Vitale, Anfree Hardaway, Bobby
Hurley, Rick Pitino, Bobby Knight
and Larry Bird all make appearances.
If this alone cannot convince you that
all basketball fans should see Blue
Chips, then the cleverly filmed bas-
ketball games should.
The dull recruiting story that
occupies the central portion of Blue
Chips is sandwiched between two
greatsequencesofbasketball games.
William Friedkin, the director, has
shown that he can film great chase
sequences, as he did in The French
Connection and To Live and Die in LA.
Hecanalsoshootextremelyexciting
sport sequences.
Friedkin takes the viewer inside
thebaskerball game as well whenhe
shows the locker rooms before and
after the game and the huddles that
occur during timeouts.
IfmoreofBitfOnpswouldhave
concentrated on basketball then the
film might have really scored. Ron
Shdton, who wroteBwHDurham and
Wliite Men Can't Jump, writes great
sports stories about life on the court
or ball field but falters when he at-
tempts to writelovestories.Heseems
to lack the requisite skills necessary to
fully develop interesting characters.
Many scenes in Blue Chips are
unnecessary: Pete's ex-wife Jenny
(Mary McDonnell) trying to tutor
Neon, Pete's constant meetings with
Jenny, Pete's meeting with a recruit's
mother (Alfre Woodard), scenes in-
volving two reporters trying to break
a story on illegalities in the Western
basketball program.
For all its faults, Blue Chips will
provide plenty of entertainment for
any fan of basketball. Seeing all the
cameos alone is worth the price of
admission.
On a scale of one to 10, Blue Chips
rates a five.

In "Bean Pole a song that I
somehow feel must be about Kathy
Poindexter's childhood traumas,
we are treated to the high point of
any Picasso Trigger live show,
Kathy's trumpet. While her actual
skills with this instrument are
doubtful, Kathy's atonal bleating
in the middle of this one makes a
nice counterpoint to the heavy bass
being laid down by Sam Mintu. A
nice punk touch live, I'm glad it
translated so well to record.
Another high point is
"Queenie an attack on Barbie

is "TV Mind about a love affair

goes acoustic on "Mi Lapiz es Muy

bass player Sam Mintu. In the spirit

Fire in the Hole! wraps up with

magnum opus. Always an excuse
for everyone to go nuts on their
respective instruments in the live
show, here it becomes an eight-
minute epic. Fuzz guitar, TV

Kathy's trumpet. This one's got it
all.
All in all, Fire in the Hole! is just
a damn good album. Picasso Trig-
ger has some serious chops, and on
this CD they finally prove it. Fine,
fine stuff.

ECU is now 7-3 on the season.

pleased with the pitching, giving
up no earned runs in the series. We
have been very pleased with the

rates, mining his record to 3-0 this
season. 1 lartgrove gave up just one
hit in six innings, striking out four

The Lady Pirates gave all they
had against the U ni versi ty of Rich-
mond in MingesColesium, but fell
79-75 to the Spiders on Thursday
night.
Richmond's Denise Winn hit
a 3-pointer with 24 seconds re-
maining to put the Spiders up for
good,dealing the Lady Pirates their
12th straight defeat.
The game was a homecoming
of sorts for Lady Pirate point guard
Danielle Charlesworth, who
plaved her freshman season at UR
before transferring to ECU prior to
last season.
"They'rea 11 still good friends
said Lady Pirate head coach Rosie
Thompson. "1 have a feeling that
regardless of who we played last
night, it would have been the same.
She (Charlesworth) has been com-
ing along real well
The Lady .Pirates were also
without the services of forward
Tracey Kelley. "She had some type
of medical problem Thompson
said. "She really just did not have
the energy to get up and down the
floor
Early on, the lead danced back
and forth between the two squads.
However, the Spiders tied the
game on a Patience Jones jumper
with 10:16 remaining in the half, a
basket that would send them on a
19-5 run that devoured 7:13 of the
game clock.
Richmond went into the locker
room ahead by nine at 41 -32. They
were led at the break in scoring by
senior point guard Laura Barnes'
12 points.
Denise Winn and Ina Nicosia
each added eight points to the Rich-
mond attack. As a team, the Spi-
ders were 18-32 (56.3) in shooting,
while grabbing 19 first half re-
bounds.
The Lady Pirates were led by
the scorching shooting touch of
point guard Danielle
Charlesworth, who was 5-8 for 15
points. Her total was followed by
that of Tomekia Blackmon, who
added 10 first half points.
Richmond opened the second
half on fire and grabbed hold of
their largest lead of the game at 48-
34 after a L.aura Barnes layup at
17:29.
ECU began to chisel away at
the Spider lead with a 23-8 run, led

Seniors shine in last game at Minges Coliseum
By Brad Oldham
Staff Writer
The final home game for the
Pirate seniors proved successful
last Wednesday, as ECU pulled
off a dramatic overtime win
against Richmond in Minges Coli-
seum, 81-77.
Mingesbid farewell to seniors
Lester Lyons, Curley Young,
Wilbert Hunter and Kevin
Armstrong. All four started the
game for head coach Eddie Payne,
who was trving to overcome a
seven-game losing streak against
the Spiders over the last three sea-
sons. The Spiders were on a seven-
game winning streak coming into
the game.
The Pirates were paced by
Lyons and center Anton Gill, who
scored 24 points a piece. Rich-
mond was led by senior guard
Gerald Jarmon, who had the hot
hand for the Spiders, knocking
down 7-of-9 3-pointers and scor-
ing 25 points on the night. Once
again the Pirates failed to keep a
large second half lead. ECU was
up by 16 early on in the second
halt, and slowly watched it slither
a way.
"The circumstances that we
had to come back after losing the
lead like we did, and winning in
overtime; I think that was a gutsy
thing for us to accomplish against
a great Rich-
mond team
Pavne said af-
ter the game.
"For the seniors
to go out like
that against a
quality team, I
think it's a great
night for our
team and our
program.
Hopefully it
will help us
continue to
build this pro-
gram
It was a sour night for the
Pirates for 3-point shooting, an
area of their game they depend on
for a bulk of their scoring. ECU
shot 7 of 26 (27 percent) from 3-
point range, with Lyons shooting
a disappointing 4 of 11.
Eddie Payne
The Pirates trailed early, but
a 16-foot jumper bv Lyons with 15
minutes left in the first half gave
ECU a 14-12 lead, a lead that the
Spiders would fail to recapture.
Lyons established himself as the
go-to man early in his final home
game, scoring
12 promts in the
first half. A
s p r e a d - o u t
scoring attack
frustrated the
Richmond de-
fense, who fre-
q u e n t 1 y
switched from
zone to man
throughout the
first half. ECU
led at half-time
37-34.
The Pirates
jumped on UR early in thesecond
half, scoring a quick seven points
to push the lead to 10, 44-34. The
Pirates continued to build on their
lead, feeding the ball into post-
men Gill and Quickie Robinson
11 1 points, seven rebounds). With
lh:52 left in the game, ECU had a
16-point lead on the Spiders.
Then Jarmon started work-
ing his magic. The New Bern, N.C.
native hit four 3-pointers in less
than three minutes, pulling UR
back to a single-digit deficit. Rich-
mond also kept Lyons from scor-
ing in the last 11 minutes of regu-
lation. Jarmon nailed a 3-pointer
with 4:35 left in regulation, bring-
ing UR to within five.
A crucial foul by ECU guard
Kareem Richardson (five points,
seven assists) on a Jarmon lay-up
resulted in a basket and a free
throw for Richmond, and cut the
lead to two. Another costly foul
by ECU freshman Tim Basham
(eight points) sent Spider Kass
Weaver (20 points) to the line to
tie the game at 65.
Gill hit a 15-foot jumper with
1:58 left to play, but the Spiders
returned with a 12-foot jumper by
Eugene Burroughs (seven points)
to tie the game with a 1:22 left.
Neither team was able to score
after that. After a missed 3-pointer

Game One
A clear sky and warm sun did
little to combat the chilling winds at
Harrington Field Saturday when
ECU challenged Howard University
in a double header that resulted in
two victories, 21-0 and 9-0, for the
Pirates.
The Pirates had 23 hits and three
homeruns in the first seven-inning
game. Third baseman Rick Britton
swept the first game with a cycle (a
single, double, triple) and two
homeruns.
"I haven't had a game like this in
alongtime'BrittonsaidIfeltgood,

good pitches.That'sagoodcombina-
tion. Hitting for the cycle was nice, it's
the first time since I was in high
school
At the bottom of the first,
centerfielder Jamie Borel led off with
a single and went on to steal second
and third. Sophomore Jason Head hi t
Borel in with the game's first homerun,
his second for the season.

turned the ball over on three differ-
ent occasions, giving ECU the ball
with two seconds left. A 3-point
attempt bv Richardson fell short
sending the game to overtime, at
67-67.
Overtime came down to con-
necting free throws for the Pirates,
and unlike last season's free throw
woes, ECU pulled through in the
clutch. The freshman Basham hit
3-of-4 free throws in overtime, com-
bined with 10 for 12 from ECU in
OT. ECU kept the ball out of
Jarmon's hands, causing the other
Richmond players to step up. They
failed to do so. UR pulled within
four on a Jarmon trey with five
seconds left, but the Pirates ended
up pulling it out, 81-77.

of play.
The Lady Pirates went ahead
56-55 on a Justine Allpress layup
(11:55)?a lead that they held until
the 5:17 mark, when Denise Winn
nailed two free throws to take her
team to a 69-68 lead.
The Spiders would go up by as
much as five points in the final
minutes of play, but ECU would
tie the game (75-75) again at 53
seconds on another Baker 3-point
basket.
Winn answered with her
game-winning 3-poiater at 24 sec-
onds to give the Spiders the vic-
tory.
Richmond's Laura Barnes led
all scorers on 8-15 shooting for 24
points, while Denise Winn added
20 for the Spiders.
ECU was led by Tomekia
Blackmon's 23 points and 10 re-
bounds.
Her total was closely followed
by Danielle Charlesworth's 17
points, and LaShonda Baker's 14
points, which all came in the sec-
ond half.
The heartbreak loss dropped
the Lady Pirates to 2-20 on the year
and 1-11 in the CAA.
Richmond ran its record to 14-
10 overall, and 6-6 in the CAA.
ECU travels to Wilmington to take
on the Lady Seahawkson Wednes-
day, then have a home game
against Appalachian State on
March 6. They will then compete in
the CAA Tournament on March
10-12 in Harrisonburg, Va.
