Truth" in Russian media?
By Jon Cawley
Staff Writer
Gennady Gerasimov, best
known as former Soviet President
Mikhail Gorbachev's press
spokesman, was at ECU Friday
presenting two lectures that were
open to students and the general
public.
Gerasimov's accomplish-
ments include serving as Russian
ambassador to Portugal and
Lisbon, Chief of Information De-
partment, Soviet Ministry of For-
eign Affairs, spokesman for
Eduard Shevardnadze, Editor-in-
Chief tor the A loscoiv News, politi-
cal advisor to Yuri Andropov,
Editor of World tAarxist Review
and syndicated columnist for
Novosti Press Agency.
The first lecture was pre-
sented to Dr. Carmine Scavo's
Media and Public Policy class and
focused on Gerasimov's impres-
sions of the Soviet media. Later,
Gerasimov spoke concerning
post-communist Russia.
Gerasimov's first-hand
knowledge and experience in the
Soviet media provided the sub-
ject matter for his presentation.
He described the Soviet
government's policy on the me-
dia, which was based on Oscar
Wilde's impression that "a prob-
lem does not exist it it is not talked
about
This policy was obtainable
by the Soviet government because
the state had a monopoly on the
presses and post offices,
Gerasimov said. That hurt the
competitiveness ot the newspa-
pers because thesta te gave money
to the papers they liked, he said.
Because newspapers and
journalists were in financial
trouble, they could be bought.
With money, anyone could buy
an article that would show them

plane hijacked
Employee facing review
attacks pilot
MEMPHIS, Term. (AP) ?
A Federal Lxpress cargo plane
veered dangerously off course at
rimes as its crew fought off a man
who attacked them with ham-
mers, a knife and a spear gun- an
air traffic controller said.
Ihere were long gaps be-
tween radioed messages from the
plane, and sometimes the plane's
microphone was on bu t transmit-
ted only heavy brea tiling, Kent
Heshman said inSunday editions
of The Commercial Appeal.
"I (felt) so helpless. I was
just trying to get him pointed back
to where he needed to go
Fleshman said.
Fleshman said the plane
suddenly veered off course sev-
eral times and tha t the pi lot, J ames
Tucker,sounded disoriented and
was breathing heavily.
"He asked, 'Where is the
airport?' I said '12 o'clock That
means he was pointing straight at
the airport Fleshman said. "And
then withinacouple of moments,
he asked (again), 'What direc-
tion7' And that's when I knew
something was really wrong
Fleshman guided the plane
to a safe landing at Memphis In-
ternational Airport, where it had
taken off from en route to San
Jose.
"Mv heart was in m v throat
the entire time Fleshman said.

in a positive way and someone
else in a negative way, he said.
The main newspaper was
Pravda (or "Truth"), which was
established in 1412 bv Vladimir
Lenin and had "an enormous cir-
culation of more than 11 million
Gerasimov said. "Across thecoun-
trv, every morning the postmas-
ter brought you your Pravda for
vour morning cup of tea
Another newspaper was
Izvestia, translated as "News
which also followed the party line
in the Soviet Union. Gerasimov
remarked that there was "no truth
in Pwnfoandnonews in Izvestia
an old Russian joke.
The most popular newspa-
per is Trud, which means "I a-
bor Gerasimov said. The trade
unions publish the paper which
hasa circulation "even bigger than
the circulation of Pravda he said.
Although in Gerasimov's
opinion Russia has "the most in-
teresting press, today all publica-
tions are down With glasnost
and perestroika readers got too
much information, and families
that subscribed to five or six news-
papers now get one, Gerasimov
said.
None of the papers adver-
tise for consumer goods,
Gerasimov said.The Russian me-
dia do have foreign correspon-
dents and publish foreign news,
although not stories like the Tonya
Harding incident, he added.
The Soviet Union had six
television stations; one national,
one in Moscow and the rest local
stations, two of which Yeltsin
wants to keep control, Gerasimov
said. When asked how the West
can best help Russian journalists,
Gerasimov responded "bring us

but the government is not going

communist Russia was mure a
question-and-answer session, in
which Gerasimov discussed
many topics concerning the
breakup o the former Soviet
Union and the future direction of
the region.
In explaining thedifference
between capitalism and social-
ism, Gerasimov explained that
"under capitalism man exploits
man, under socialism it is just the
opposite He said under social-
ism the state exploited thepeople.
Gerasimov believes that the
Soviet system failed not because
the military budget created a bur-
den on the Socialist system, but
because the system failed to ac-
complish its goal: "to create a
new Soviet man
America hasa melting stew
because some nationalities still
stick together, Gerasimov said.

Women learn to fight back
By Jason Williams
Assistant News Editor
Think of the word feminism.
What images come to mind? Is it
the passionate defenders of
women's rights fighting for equal-
ity or is it Rush Limbaugh's
"feminazis" taking on govern-
ment with their own agenda?
More than 150 women came
to Greenville this past weekend
to participate in the annual meet-
ing of the Southeastern Women's
Studies Association (SEWSA) to
debate that premise and other top-
ics. The title of the conference was
"Constructing the 21st Centurv:
Women andin the World
"SEWSA is a group of femi-
nists, individuals and organiza-
tions in the southeastern states
who are committed to the promo-
tion and support ot women's stud-
ies and women's advocacy in
schoolsand communities states
a brochure promoting the organi-
zation.
Each year SEWSA holds a
conference at a major university
in the southeast, I ast year's meet-
ing was held at Vanderbilt I m
versify in Tennessee
" The conference was a
huge success said Ml Adams, a
gr iduate assistant in theWomen's
Studies Program who helped or-
ganize the event. ' i think it was
very produ tiveand it wasa lotol
tun being there. We v ere pleased
with the turnout
I lie i ontereiu e, w h uh
spanned parts ot three days, in-
cluded speakers trom ECL .other
universities and other walks ot
life, panel and roundtablediscus-
sions and three keynote speakers.
One ot the keynote speak-
ers, Lillian Robinson, spoke on
the topic of the global sex indus
try and women's participation in
it. Robinson teaches English at
Virginia Polytechnic and State
University and has written exten-
sively on the topic ot women's
roles in society. She has also been
featured in the journal TlieNation
for n article on prostitution in
Thailand.
Robinson blamed the Thai
sex industry, known worldwide
for the youth, accessibility and
low i ost ot its prostitutes, on the
American military. "In 1967, Thai-
land signedi. ontrac tswith theL .S.
government to provide rest and
relaxation for troops stationed in
'southeast Asia Weal! know what

Robinson i ritk ized the n k k
magazine,sjii. which is pub-
lished bv the same i ompany that
distributes Penthouse, for jn ar-
ticle entitled "We Tree a Sex
Slave " She asked the audience
rhetorically if they wen'supposed

Ina similai vein, she . riti-

year industry and American femi-
nists for not condemning prosti-
tution. She said some feminists
"valorizesex work and say that
prostitution is a choice of many
women. Robinson also said all la-
bor was exploitative and prosti-
tution led to "sexual subjectivity
and sexual alienation
Saturday's other plenary
speaker was Linda Brown of
Bennett College. Brown's talk was
entitled "UnderstandingSymbols
and Images of Racism in our Cul-
ture
Brown discussed advertis-
ing icons such as Aunt Jemima
and the black man that appears
on the Cream of Wheat packages.
She also mentioned the toothpaste
Colgate which is sold in Asia Mil-
der a different prejudicial name
and featuresa man in blackface as
spokesman for the product.
Biown said that popular
images ot men and women, espe-
cially black men and women,can
be divided mto three categories.
Men are either "Uncle Ren.uses,
Sambos or savages she said.
Women all tall into the categories
of "Jezebel, Mamie or Esther from

Reid withdraws
from SGA race
By Jason Williams
Assistant News Editor
Candidate for SGA presi-
dent David Reid tormallv with-
drew his name from consider-
ation in a press conference at The
East Carolinian yesterday. He is-
sued the following statement:
"This morning at 8 a.m. I
submitted mv withdrawal of my
name on the ballot as a candidate
for president of the Studen tGov-
ernment Association This was
not an easy decision for me but
one that I feel most comfortable
with. I would like to thank all the
people that voted and supported
me in mv campaign. I said from
the beginning that this would be
a learning experience and it was.
"I honestly feel that things
need to change in the SGA and
today I am publically endorsing
Ian Eastman for S( I A president.
Ian, like myself, wants to bring
about change on the SGA I
want to end the negative cam-
paigning and focus on the real
issues, not pie in the sk-? prom-
ises that are made to just to
get votes. The pattern of
lies md personal attacks al-
leged against me by other
candidates and or persons
quite simply make a mock-
ery ot our student govern-
ment election process.
Secondly the clear con-
flicts of interests that exist
within the SGA and more
particularly on the elections
committee itself are issue
enough for even the most
uninformed student to eas-
ii discern that theSGAbarn
needs to be cleaned out ,nd
cleaned out now
Had Reid not with-
drawn, he would have faced
Ian Eastman in a run-off
Wed April 13. The winner
of that run-off would have
gone on to run against Brvnn
Thomas the following
Wednesday, April 20.
ECU students will de-
cide between Eastman and
Thomas for SGA president
on April 20.

dent acting on a dare who said
he hated the cartoon dinosaur.
Deborah McRov suffered a

with assault and battery.

Vandals destroy newspaper inserts
; A group calling itself "Pissed Off Wimmin" claimed responsibility
fof destroying 10,000 pro-life newspaper inserts that were supposed to be
distributed April 5 by The Miami Hurricane. However, the student news-
paper at the University of Miami has vowed to deliver reprinted adver-
tising supplements as scheduled. The group that identified itself as Pissed
Off Wimmin, or POW, faxed a press release to the newspaper March 28,
claiming responsibility for trashing the supplements. Police believe the
inserts from Human Life of Minnesota Inc a pro-life organization, were
destroyed between 2:30 a.m. and 5 a.m. March 28. The 12-page tabloids
were strewn across the floor of a stairwell in the VVhitten University
Center and red paint was poured on them. A flier glued to the wall
depicted a coat hangar and the words "The alternative to legal abortion
Officials could not immediately explain how the vandal knew where the
supplements were stored in the University Center.
Georgia Tech wins a fortune on "Wheel"
By guessing the phrase "mashed potatoes four Georgia Tech
students won 550,000 for their school on "Wheel of Fortune's" College
Week. In addition to the $50,000 annuity to be used for scholarships, the
Georgia Tech team also raked in almost $88,000 for themselves. The Tech
team was composed of three engineering majors and a management
science major. The other schools competing on College Week were
UCLA, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Arkansas. The
four teams met at the DisneyMGM Studios in Orlando on March 5 to
tape a week of shows that will air May 16-20. The final standings: in first
place was Georgia Tech with combined winnings of $137,950; second,
UCLA with $45,800; Arkansas, $31,248; and Pittsburgh, $5,500.
UNC-CH Trustees vote to increase student fees
UNC's Board of Trustees voted two weeks ago to increase student
fees by about $80 for most undergraduates and to institute a $500 "quality
fee" for master's students at the Kenan-Flagler Business School, The Daily
Tarheel reported. The increased fees, which affect only UNC-Chapel Hill,
were proposed by the chancellor's student fee committee and are about
12.4 percent higher than this year's fees. UNC-CH ranks 13th among the
16 members of the UNC system, Trustee Annette Wood said. Currently,
the school collects $573 in fees, incl uding a $60 athletic fee. UNC-G collects
the most at $871, and Winston-Salem State University, Pembroke State
University and FayerteviUe State University collect the least in student
fees.

NASHVILLE, Term. (AP)?
A huge bolt of lightning struck as
people played Frisbee on a rain-
drenched field, killing one person
and injuring 18 others.
"It was like a grenade that
exploded player Fred Baes said
Sunday. "People were standing
there and they went 'Bang Just
like that. Everybody on the field
hit the ground
"It was a huge bolt he said.
"It knocked me back about 5
yards
Police did not know if the
lightning hit the ground or the
people. From descriptions given
by the injured to doctors, the bolt
may have ricocheted off the
ground or off one of the people it
hit, said Elizabeth Spurgeon, a
spokeswoman for Southern Hills
Medical Center.
"The doctor who treated
some of the injured said some-
times lightning can hit one thing
and go back up into the air and
spread out like a starburst
Spurgeon said.
The Ultimate Frisbee Match
was being held on a soggy field
when the lightning struck around
1:30 p.m. Sunday, Detective Brad
Putnam said. It had been raining
off and on since the games began
that morning, he said.
Officials said the games had
been halted earlier in the day to
allow a thunderstorm to pass.
Seven of the victims were
players and the rest were specta-
tors. Shawn Adams, 29, of Chatta-
nooga was killed, police said.
Carmen Lapoma, 28, of At-
lanta was in critical condition to-
day. The other 17 injured people
were treated and released Sun-
day.
Twenty-four Frisbee teams
arrived in Nashville on Friday for
games that use a flying disk to
play soccer, tag and football.
Anyone interested in writing for the news
department is urged to contact Afeureen or Jason
at 757-6366 for more information.

Kurt Cobain wrongly deified in death I
In lieu of Kurt Cobain's death last week, an
entire generation is forced to accept a disillusioned
martyrheroastheirrepresentative. Well,hedidn't
want us, and we certainly don't need him.
From MTV's "Week In Rock" to CNN, the
reports covering the death of Nirvana's lead singer
ranged from bizarre to just plain stupid. CNN
covered the story reservedly and matter-of-factly.
MTV's Kurt Loder cried during the Nirvana trib-
ute and then practically choked on his tears as he
informed a nation of Nirvana fans not to turn
around and do what Cobain did. He then advised
them to listen to the four Nirvana records during
the weekend because "they're all pretty good
Nice eulogy, Mr. Loder.
This Generation X thing was lame enough
before we were forced to swallow the pathetic
drug abuser as our leader in our "slacker" lives.
Thank Douglas Coupland for labeling an entire
generation of people as hopeless and unproduc-
tive members of society and then look to Kurt
Cobain as some sort of cynical god that may or
may not have been able to lead us out of the
fabricated despair that Coupland sums up for us
in Generation X. He never wanted the fame, or so
he claims. Obviously he never knew what came
along with the limelight. So, instead of dealing
with it, he puts a shotgun to his head and pulls the
trigger.
We (the twer' ' something group), as a col-
lective unit, are not lost, disillusioned, hopeless,
cynical, drifting people. Individually, we may
each have varying combinations of characteris-

tics. But we aren't one huge, pathetic person who's
down on life and doesn't give a crap about what
happens tomorrow. But this is what we've become
to others, to the press, and if we're not careful, to
ourselves. A USA Today "Appreciation" story by
EdnaGundersen, reasons that "suicideisnotsharne-
ful,butneither is it admirable Abouttheonly thng
I've read or heard on the news that hasn't glorified
Cobain was this one story by Gundersen. She
insists that the man should not be deified.
To be quite honest, this act of Cobain's didn't
surprise me one iota. He, very plainly, was a man
severly messed up on drugs and certainly not ready
to face that fact. He was self-destructive and un-
happy. The near-fatal coma, now believed to be a
suicide attempt, was covered over as an accident.
Cobain abruptly checked out of an L. Aarea rehab
center, bought a shotgun and then was missing for
close to a week. His family and friends knew about
his constant depression and suicidal tendancies.
And yet despite all of this, his fans still made him
their anti-hero.
Kurt Cobain was that person with the right
combination of ideals and emotions thatCoupland
describes as Generation X. We are not Kurt Cobain.
We are individuals and we have the present and the
future. Unfortunately, what we now have thrust
upon us is a Christ-like grunge figurehead that
everyone expects us to follow into our worthless
future. But with all that's happened, all we owe
anyone is grief. Cobain is not a god. All that's tragic
in this story is that people sometimes see this as the
only way out.

Clinton accused of more sex allegations
Those who recall the media
firestorm about the Senator
Packwood sexual harassment
charges last fall, or the Clarence
Thomas-Anita Hill imbroglio in
1991, one might think that the
press would be drooling at the
possibility of another high gov-
ernment official facing possible
charges of
governor had at least some mea-
sure of power over her career. Re-
portedly he then told her that "you
havenicecurvesand ran his hand
up her leg. Allegedly, Mr. Clinton
then exposed himself and asked
Mrs. Jones to perform oral sex on
him. Again, these are all allega-
tions, which the President has de-
nied through
What we need is
more bulldogged
determination and
devotion to the
truth on which the
media prides itself.
sexual ha-
rassment.
Indeed, one
would think
that they
would ac-
tively seek
such cases
out, since
members of
the press mmmmmm
"simply
want to expose stories for what
they are - truth or fiction as was
published in these pages just last
Thursday. So why is there such
an astounding silence from the
press on the subject of Paula
Jones?
No doubt most readers are
asking themselves, Who? Do not
feel bad. Among newspapers,
only the Neiv York Post, Washing-
ton Times, and Los Angeles Times
have covered the story. ABC
briefly mentioned her story once.
The rest of the press has been
mute. If one had read any of these
stories, one would have learned
that in May of 1991, while she
was working as a hostess at the
Arkansas Quality Management
Governors' Conference at the
Excelsior Hotel in Little Rock,
then-Governor Clinton had an
armed state trooper invite Mrs.
Jones to his room to meet him.
Considering the invitation an
honor, she went along. Once
alone with the governor in his
room, with the trooper waiting in
the hallway, she claims that he
implied his authority over her,
and mentioned that he knew her
boss. As a state employee, the
Dee Dee
Meyers.
However,
Mrs. Jones has
corroboration,
both from four
Arkansas state
troopers who
worked on the
governor's secu-
rity detail,
claiming that
they frequently were used to invite
women to see the governor alone,
and from two friends others. When
she returned to the lobby, obvi-
ously shaken, she immediately con-
fided in both her friends her ver-
sion of what occured. Both women
have signed sworn affidavits sup-
porting Mrs. Jones' story.
Personally, I do not like the
use of one person's word against
another in this manner. However,
since the press decided in 1991 that
one woman, coming forward years
after the supposed offence, could
destroy a man's reputation, then,
to be fair, the media, the National
Organization for Women, and even
Hillary Clinton, who presented an
award for courage to Anita Hill,
should either hold our president to
the same standard, or offer an im-
mediate apology to Clarence Tho-
mas.
Of course, there are a few
differences between the two cases.
Clarence Thomas was being nomi-
nated for the Supreme Court; Bill
Clinton has been entrusted with
the highest office in the land. Miss
Hill was a lawyer, trained in ha-
rassment law, somehow failed to
tell anyone about the alleged ha-
rassment, or even keep a diary of
the offenses. She did however, fol-
low her alleged harasser from one
job to another. No one has ever
accused Justice Thomas of any
other misconduct with women.
Mrs. Jones has produced two wit-
nesses, plus her alleged harasser
has a long history of rumored
sexual indiscretions. Miss Hill has
toured the country, making
speeches at $10,000 a pop. Mrs.
Jones has not attempted to make
one cent from her story. While Nina
Totenberg and Tim Phelps had to
encourage (some might say force)
Miss Hill to make her charges pub-
he, Mrs. Jones has had to beg mem-
bers of the American press to cover
her story, including giving an ex-
clusive interview with The Wash-
ington Post. The Post has run noth-
ing in the weeks that have elapsed
since, and rumors of shouting
matches at the Post have found
there way into print. Apparently
some staffers at the paper feel edi-
tors are trying to bury the story.
There is the small difference in
political ideology in the two al-
leged perpetrators, but of course
that could not be the reason for the
difference in the press' treatment
of the two cases.
Mrs. Jones may leave the
press no choice. She has until May
8 to file a civil suit against the Presi-
dent. In such a case, the possibility
that the preponderance of the evi-
dence might be against the presi-
dent is quite real. So we could be
facing a situation where a sitting
president is forced by a court to
make reparation for a possible
criminal act. Obviously then, this
story is of immediate importance.
If this were the first hint of
possible wrong-doing by President
Clinton (as it was in the Thomas
case), then perhaps the press' re-
luctance would be justified. What
we need is more of the bulldogged
determination and devotion to the
truth on which the media prides
itself.
It's just about closing time
for the 1994 spring semester, and
I can't help but to think of that
fresh, new crop of college gradu-
ates motivated to hit the pave-
ment, assuredly toting that little
cylindrical, ribbon-fastened
document, ready to sell their tal-
ents and abilities to the company,
firm or institution offering the
best price. Yes, it is true, some
grads have the good fortune to be
a littlechoosy in their professional
endeavors.
However, as graduation
draws near, my heart goes out to
those who will soon be entering
the field of teaching. At times, I
don't know whether to congratu-
late them or pity them. They have
made a decision to enter a profes-
sion in the hope of changing a few
lives and perhaps to even chal-
lenge the educational system in an
attempt to improve it for their col-
leagues and students.
Unfortunately, as young
teachers step into a classroom with
all these lofty ambitions, they are
met with the old relics who offer
nothing more than, "Yeah, I used
to think that way, too and within
about two weeks the rookie-
teacher is conceeding defeat to a
system that will seemingly never
change.
Furthermore, it is a system
that is threaded with such illusion
and irony that many teachers end
up merely acting the part and
abandoning the entire role of en-
couraging learning and fostering
success in their students.
Consider how an interview
may sound between the principal
or superintendent and a young,
first-year recruit: "Unless you are
concerned with a problem in pa-
perwork, don't rely heavily on
your administration. Also, you
may find it a little tough to deal
with your colleagues since they
seem to be somewhat uncoopera-
tive. Furthermore, on days where
school is cancelled due to hurri-
cane warnings, you are still ex-
pected to be here, preferably 30
minutes earlier. For your summer
break, you need to update all your
files and lesson plans and attend
at least two graduate school
classes. We really encourage our
teachers to earn their Masters.
By the way, since your stu-
dents are typical adolescents, they
may seem a bit irrational, emo-
tional, and threatening at times,
but that's normal; you're not the
ony one who must deal with that,
you know. Okay, your starting
salary is $18,300 and we'll review
you for an increase after your fifth
year. Good luck
It's easy to imagine a wide-
eyed, open-mouthed, semi-para-
lyzed college graduate now' on-
dering why they could be so stu-
pid as to pursue a career in this
field. There is a national outcry for
better schools and better educa-
ors, and even though the better
teachers hear this, their outcry for
higher wages seems to fall on deaf
ears.
In a study by Xavier Univer-
sity, teachers reported they spend
at least 50 percent of their time
teaching on classroom manage-
ment, aka, disciplining stu-
dents. Also, 54 percent of the
schools surveyed reported a
dramatic increase in violence
over the past year alone. And is
it no wonder? The Department
of Education recently revealed
that over 100,000 students bring
guns to school each day. And
finallv, without too much con-
sideration about the demands
imposed upon these young
teachers by the parents, one
bewildering fact is that parents,
whose children are disrespect-
ful at home, always seem to be
so shocked to learn about the
behavior problems they are hav-
ing at school.
Given all the above men-
tioned, it is baffling why any-
one would want to devote their
career to one of high stress, high
expectations, low pay and little
recognition. A teacher really
never knows if they have been
successful unless they are for-
tunate enough to have one stu-
dent return years later and of-
fer a note of thanks. That's the
kind of success a teacher hopes
for but seldom receives.
We all have a special
teacher who we may say
changed our lives or who we
really thought was great. To the
new, young teachers, you may
be one such idol to many stu-
dents. Although you may never
know it, that is the true success
of your field. Hopefully, it's
enough to keep you fighting for
the more tangible and deserv-
ing rewards as well.
Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
Kudos on a satirical job well done. The Least
Carolinian front page of Thursday's March 30(pre-
April Fool's) issue was the most hysterical copy I've
read in a while. I can't determine what made me cry
more, the top story on the PC speech codes cr the
plans to raz Dick's mansion and build a parking
deck. And the cow in the weather corner; god, now
that was a screamer.
I am glad to see the return of The Clearly
Labeled Satire Page, even if it's just for one issue.
Several years ago, much to the chagrin of the Media
Board, Chippy Bonehead and I (going by the moni-
ker of Earl vis) started the satire page which ran every
Thursday. After its debut, someone wrote a letter to
the editor complaining that it should be clearly la-
beled. Hence, the following week gave birth to The
Clearly Labeled Satire Page. During our satirical
reign, we wrote tons of outrageous stuff?including
a scatological advice column and the terrifying
Adventures of Squirrelman?but you, my friends,
have outwitted us and produced a hilarious parody
of campus news.
Please keep it up. The Satire Page is a needed
comic relief for those delving into the perils of
academe. And while a proposal to continue Satire
may find resistance from no other than the Media
Board, the Satire Page would receive a welcomed
reception from its readers: the students.
The talented writing demonstrated in The
Least Carolinian can't fall victim to the Board's
purse-strings approach to censorship. In addition,
the argument that the renewal of Satire will jeop-
ardize the paper's credibility is a load of beaver
dung. Just keep it Clearly Labeled and pump out
the humorous copy. Again, thanks for the laughs.

To the Editor:
In response to Rizz Khoshnan's letter to the
editor on April 7th. Please don't feel sorry for us
chemistry students, we will surely hate working
hard in college and then making one of the top
salaries in the job market when we graduate with a
four year degree. If you can't pass an entry level
course in chemistry (because that is all Dr. Clemens
taught last semester), then maybe you should try
another field which interests you and does not re-
quire chemistry. Could it be that maybe you didn't
give a decent effort toward the class or is it easier to
just put the blame on someone else other than your-
self to justify your shortcomings!
I am a chemist and I admit that it was probably
the most difficult and rewarding endeavor I faced,
but it was worth it to me. 1 had to take some classes
over, study over the weekends and holidays, and get
tutored by graduate students, the learning center,
and even the professors. But I didn't blame anyone
except myself when things got difficult. Of course I
received that help because I wanted help, and if the
chemistry department just didn't care or not
worth a then how did I and all the other students
get help and you didn't?
Every year you hear freshman or transfers
who take introductory chemistry courses complain
about how hard chemistry is or how bad the profes-
sor is. But chemistry is not for memorizing facts or
figures, its about thinking and reasoning informa-
tion. Chemistry is a science, not a crip coarse for
undergraduate study.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that if
they're not doing well in history, english, foreign
languages, or psychology then why would they
major in that field? So tell me, why are you major-
ing in chemistry if you can't do well in an introduc-
tory coarse in Chemistry? P.S. ? Good luck at
McDonalds.

From the heart nt "Down Un-
der Melbourne, Australia come
the Scared Weird LittleGuys. Af-
ter performing for over six years
in various groups, including
Australia's most popular a
cappella group The Phones, John
Fleming and Rusty Berther have
brought their refreshing, unique
brand of musical comedy to a
new level Scared Little Weird
Guys has won the distinction of
being named Best Comedy Act
bv both Campus Activities
Victoria, Australia and theCana-
dian Organization of Campus
Activities. In Melbourne, they
have a weekly breakfast radii)
show and appear regularly on
major Australian TV programs.
Their witty and clever parodies,
versatile style and exceptional
musicianship make them one of
Australia's most exciting and
popular acts.
Fleming and Berther have
performed over 1,300 shows to-
gether and will add another 50 to
that list after their extensive Ca-
nadian tour from Vancouver all
the way to St. ohn's. Berther re-
vealed a strategy used when it
comes to talk shows. "We'll come
in and talk to the guys whodo the
show first, ()ne ot them will giv'e
us a suggestion )bout something
that's happened during the day
or something that's in the news
and then we'll sneak out the back
for 20 minutes and write a song
and come back and do it on the
air
There's a little bit of a prob-
lem with having people under-
stand some of it We have to watch
we don't speak too fast in be-
tween songs. People who haven't
tuned into our accents you can
see desperately trying to under-
stand what we're doing. There
are a few songs we couldn't do
because they had inside refer-
ences to Australia
Scared Weird LittleGuys will
be at Club 7:57, brought to ECU
bv the Student Union Popular En-
tertainment Committee. The per-
formance will begin at 7:57 p.m.
in Mendenhall 244 on April 19.
Admission is free and refresh-
ments will be served.

he calls his new perspective on life

If NBC didn't want him, HBO
did. And Miller liked the channel.
He'd done two comedy specials tor
them, and found cable to be a better
fit than broadcast TV.
"I like doing it live he says. "I

The format for "Dennis Miller"

others, he says.

OLDHAM'S CORNER
I want to talk today about
trends. As we enter the last
few years of the century, ev-
erybody and ev-
erything tends
to be focused on
certain trends.
You see
By Brad
Oldham
Staff writer
trends in everything these
days. Trends in clothing, with
your miniskirts and bikinis,
which I can somehow find a
place in my heart to deal with.
Trends in cars, trends in homes,
trends in movies, trends,
trends, trends. You can never
get away from them.
Alas, there are trends in
sports as well, because, hey, if
sports wasn't the theme of this
column, it would be in the opin-
ion page. Charles Barkley is
about as outspoken as his bald-
headed self can be about the
trend of athletes beingathletes
and not role models. Other ath-
letes, such as Karl Malone and
David Robinson, feel that their
place in society is to be role-
models, and they are perfectly
comfortable with that role.
With all the talk these days
about players receiving absurd
salaries, and who Jose Canseco
is sleeping with this week, the
true essence of the game of
baseball is being lost. Lost by
the businessmen that use the
game of baseball to capture the
mighty dollar-bill.
Baseball cards are the per
feet example. What happened
to the good old days, when
kids used to scrape up 35 cents
to buy a pack of baseball cards?
Then they would neatly place
their favorite players into old
"Zips" shoeboxes where they
would take them out for in
stance reassurance on who
their heroes were. Of course
the "scrub" players cards
would sadly be placed between
the rusty spokes of their hand
me-down Huffy dirt bike, imi-
tating the sound of a muffler
we wouldn't be caught dead
with today.
Now baseball cards cost
$10 a pack, because there's a
one in a million chance that
"Joe Prospect" might have his
glossy-compu terized-in-action
image lamented on one of the
cards inside the costly pack. Its
a sad trend on what was once a
great hobby.
Luckily, their is one trend
in baseball that, thank God, has
some sense to it. The trend in
new baseball ballparks has
now returned to the point that
it should have never left in the
first place. The baseball lords
above wept their eyes out in
the late 70' and through the
80's, when city after city felt
that domed stadiums were the
way to go. What a mistake that
was. Baseball is meant to be
played on natural grass, in the
outdoors, where you get the
sounds and smells of the city
to set the stage for what really
is baseball. The smell of hot
dogs, pretzels, popcorn, and
beer is meant to be experienced
in the wide-open fantasy land
of the ballpark.
When I look at beautiful
new ballparks today such as
Camden Yards in Baltimore,
the new Jacobs Field in Cleve
land, as well as the Rangers
new ballpark named The
Ballpark in Arlington, I have
to smile. Let's pray that this
will be a trend that will con-
tinue in years to come. Think
about it, the players will even
tually come and go. Who's here
today is gone tomorrow as each
generation raises the next on
the game of baseball.
"Root, root, root for the
home team is a saying I heard
a lot growing up. I'll never for-
get the days my father took my
two brothers and I to Wrigley
Field to see the Cubs play while
I was growing up in north Chi-
cago. It's a shame that some
poor kid in Toronto is being
raised on baseball being played
in something that resembles
more of a space station than a

Jason Head is a sophomore from the local Greene Central High School. His game winning RBI helped the
Pirates reach the .500 mark in the CAA. This series was the last for CAA action at Harrington Field this season.
Qandell on target in practice
(SID) ? East Carolina foot-
ball coach Steve Logan was pleased
with what he saw in the Pirates'
third major scrimmage of the
spring.
"It was a good scrimmage for
us said Logan of the two-hour,
108-play workout. "There was a
definiteebband flow on both sides
of the ball. Our kids have to learn
that when things don't go your
way, you have to dig in and when
things do go your way, you have
to take advantage of it
The Pirate offense was able to
score seven touchdowns, includ-
ing four through the air and three
on the ground. Chad Holcomb also
hit a 24-yard field goal to round
out the scoring.
Orlando Whitaker hit Allen
Williams with a six-yard strike for
the scrimmage's first touchdown.
The Pirates turned the ball
over only twice, both on intercep-
tions by sophomore Perez
Mattison
"We didn't turn the ball over
today said Logan. "That is fun-
damental to what we have to do
on offense. It is the essence of what
we've tried to do over the last two
years
Sophomore quarterback
Marcus Crandell continued his
fine spring, completing 16 of 33
passes for 303 yards with a touch-
Allen Williams -WR
down. Crandell hit redshirt fresh-
man Larry Shannon wi th a 10-yard
scoring strike for the scrimmage's
last score.
Logan credited sophomore
wide receiver Mitchell Galloway
with getting the scrimmage started
at a good pace.
On the second play of the
scrimmage, Galloway stretched
out on a 42-yard pass from
Crandell.
"It set the tone for the scrim-
mage said Logan.
Sophomore Chris Hester had
an excellent day statistically, com-
pleting 8 of 9 passes for 169 yards
and connecting with sophomore
tight end Sean Richardson, a
Durham native, on a 67-yard
scoring strike.
Dan Gonzalez hit Shannon
with a 17-yard pass for another
scoring strike of the day.
The three rushing touch-
downs were turned in on 3-yard
runs by Junior Smith, Chuck
Ingram and Damon Wilson.
Redshirt freshman John Pea-
cock led the Pirates in rushing,
gaining 77 yards on 13 carries.
With only one more work-
ou t left in the spring drills, Logan
is pleased with his squad's effort
during the spring.
"We got better every day be-
cause the kids gave us their at-
tention every day said Logan.
"We also were able to stay healthy
during the spring, because the
kids went full speed every day
The ony major injury the Pi-
rates had during the spring was
a sprained ankle by running back
Eric Blanton.
The Pirates will finish their
spring practice session with the
annual PurpleGold Game on
Saturday, Aprill6 at 3 p.m. in
Ficklen Stadium.
The game is part of the 11th
annualGreat Pirate PurpleGold
Pigskin Pig-Out Party, held at

William & Mary was on the
way to winning their first-ever
baseball series against East Caro-
lina. After splitting the Saturday
doubleheader, W&M had a
seven-run lead in the sixth
inningofplayinSunday's
game. Unfortunately for
the Tribe, the Pirates got
hot both at the plate and
on the mound as ECU ral-
lied to beat W&M 13-12 in
10 innings at Harrington
Field.
East Carolina is now
26-11 overall, and has
moved up to .500 in the confer-
ence with a 6-6 record. The Tribe
now falls to 18-16 overall, 6-9 in
the CAA.
"Although elements of our
play weren't as good as what we
wanted, we certainly did what
was required to win the game
ECU head coach Gary Overton
said after Sunday's game. "We
had excellent bats in the situa-
tions we needed them in. In the
seven-run inning we had no
cheap hits. Jason Mills gets
credit for holding them until
our offense got started. It was a
weird, wacky game, and we just
happened to come out on top
The game was
filled with crucial situ-
ations for both teams
Just when it looked as'
if one team was cer
tain to ride the tide to
victory, the other team
would answer with
solid play.

The Lady Pirates are having another successful season under Coach
Manahan. The team has already played 46 games this season.
(SID)?The East Ca rolina soft-
ball team defeated UNC- Wilming-
ton, 3-1 and lost to Georgia Tech, 3-
0 on Friday afternoon, the first day
of the seventh annual Tar Heel In-
vitational Softball Tournament.
In the victory over UNC-Wilm-
ington, ECU scored three runs on
eight hits with no errors. Senior
standout Michelle Ward went 2-4
with two stolen bases and 1 RBI.
Freshman leftfielder Tonya
Oxendine went 2-3 with one stolen
base and one run scored. Freshman
pitcher Teryn Ford chalked up the
win, advancing her overall record
to 8-5. The Seahawks and the Lady
Pirates have met up three times this
year with ECU winning all three
meetings, including Friday's.
In its second game of the day,
EastCarolina was shutoutby Geor-
gia Tech, 3-0.
Michelle Ward recorded
ECU's only two hits of the game
and stole three bases giving her
five stolen bases for the day. Ward
is currently leading the NCAA in
stolen bases with 63.
Freshman pitcher Jill
Rowlands took her third loss of
the season, with her record drop-
ping to 15-3.
East Carolina's record after
46 games stands at 34-12.
In other action, ACC powers
Georgia Tech, North Carolina and
Florida State all won their first
two games.
The single elimination tour-
nament continued Saturday, with
action starting at 9 a.m. at the
Finley Softball Fields.
The results were not known
at the time of press, but will be in
Thursday's paper.
Vicario mentally strong
(AP) ? Somehow, Arantxa
Sanchez Vicario said, she was able
to keep her mind on tennis.
Her father, hospitalized in
Spain after a heart attack, wanted
her to do just that, and she was
determined to abide by his wishes.
"I thought it would be better
to be with him, but he wanted me
to stay Sanchez Vicario said Sun-
day a fter beating Gabriela Sabatini
6-1,6-4 to win the Bausch & Lomb
Championships for the second
straight year.
"I tried not to let it bother me
too much. He's feeling much bet-
ter, and I'm sure he'll be proud of
me. He wanted me to stay and
win. I did it for him
Sanchez Vicario, the top seed,
kept the news of her father's ill-
ness to herself after learning he
had been stricken last Tuesday,
just before she played her open-
ing match at Amelia Island Plan-
tation.
When his condition improved
the following day, she decided to
remain in the $400,000 clay-court
event.
The title was the first of the
year for Sanchez Vicario, who won
four tournaments in 1993 but had
gone 0-5 in finals since last May,
including losses to Steffi Graf in
this year's Australian Open and
Virginia Slims of Florida.
After winning the singles
crown, Sanchez Vicario teamed
with Larisa Neiland to capture
the doubles title.
In beating Sabatini, Sanchez
Vicario stopped a streak of 15
tournaments in which she failed
to win a singles title.
An even more frustrating
string of disappointment con-
tinued forSabatini. A three-time
winner at Amelia Island, the
Argentine has now gone 33
tournaments ? nearly two
years ? without winning a
singles title.
Sanchez Vicario broke serve
in the first and third games for a
3-0 lead, then broke again to close
the first set in 37 minutes.
Sabatini committed only 18 un-
forced errors in Saturday's semi-
final victory over Lindsay Dav-
enport but had 14 in the opening
set against Sanchez Vicario.
Sabatini settled down to win
three straight games for a 3-1
lead in the second set but never
gained control of the match.
Sanchez Vicario won the next
three games, then finished off
her fatigued opponent by hold-
ing serve for a 5-4 lead and break-
ing Sabatini for the match.
"She didn't give me much
chance todoanything Sabatini
said.

FEATURING THE BEST IN
CLASSIC ROCK
-
?
April 12, 1994
The East Carolinian 11
BASEBALL
within four runs of the lead.
The inning was far from over.
ECU third-baseman Rick Britton
wa I ked. I his set the stage for left-
fielder Brian Yerys, who cranked
a double to right-center, scoring
Britton. Catcher Chad Triplett
kept the inning going with a two-
out double to score Yerys, mak-
ing it 10-8. Heath Clark came
through with a clutch single, scor-
ing Triplett in a close play at the
plate. With Clark on second after
a Puckett walk, right-fielder
Lamont Fdwards hit the Pirates'
fourth double of the inning, scor-
ing Clark and tying the game at
10.
However, the Tribe had no
quit in them, and answered the
Pirates seven-run inning by a tak-
ing the lead in the top of the sev-
enth on a wild pitch by Mills.
"Thev were a club that
showed that they were going to
battle back, but there was not one
time when we felt that we were
going to lose Overton said.
Britton tied the score once
again at 11 in the bottom of the
seventh, with a solo blast over
the right field wall. As well as
Continued from page 9
ECU was playing, they never took
the lead over the Tribe until the
end of the game.
It looked as if though W&M
were going to have their way in
the ninth. An error by second
baseman Heath Clark allowed the
Tribe's Rvan Kuester to score and
give the Tribe a 12-11 lead.
ECU went to the bottom of
the ninth and quickly found them-
selves with two outs and nobody
on base. The Tribe had northern
Virginia hurler Adam Butler on
the mound with just one out away
from victorv. Then, Head and
Britton both came to the plate for
the Pirates and both reached base
with walks. With men on first
and second, Yerys got a key single
to score Head and tie the game at
12.
The game went to extra in-
nings ? familiar territory for
ECU, who have had three games
in the last week and six this sea-
son go past nine innings.
ECU kept the Tribe scoreless
in the top of the tenth. Clark
wasted no time getting the Pi-
rates in position to win the ball
game, placing a double in left-
field that fell between the short-
stop and left-fielder. It was a ball
that should have easily been
caught by the left-fielder, but
scored a double by the ECU offi-
cial scorekeeper. Puckett laid
down a picture-perfect sacrifice
bunt, moving Clark to third base
with one out in the tenth.
Interesting strategy came
from the Tribe coaches, who ca lied
for two intentional walks to
Edwards and Borel. Loading the
bases for the left-handed Head,
who homered earlier in the game,
was a gutsv call by the scholarly-
Tribe of W&M, whose coaches
were obviously playing for a
ground-ball and a double play.
" I wasn't nervous when I went
up to the plate because I knew if I
didn't get the hit, then Britton
would behind me Head said.
Head showed his poise with a
single to the right field fence, scor-
ing Clark and winning the game
13-12.
Mills got the win for the Pi-
rates, throwing five solid innings
in relief for Johnny Beck, who got
hammered from the get-go against
the Tribe. Mills, a junior, allowed
only one hit, two unearned runs
and struck out six batters en route
to improving his season record to
3-2. Butler took the loss for the
Tribe, and was their sixth pitchei
of the i y, switching from desig-
nated hitter to pitcher, throwing 3
23 innings, giving up three runs
and walking five.
"We had a team talk before
the game that was a huge factor in
us winning the game Overton
said. "The talk was about main-
taining a great amount of pride
from start to finish. We lose that
and its hard to regain. It's about
being aggressive from start to fin-
ish
The Pirates are going to need
that aggressiveness as they roll
into three ACC games in a row.
ECU hits the diamond again on
Tuesday, taking on Duke at
Zebulon's Five County Stadium
at 7 p.m.
