Funding for a new project, The ECU Generalist Physician Program, will come from the nation's largest health care phi- lanthropy and a partnership of state and local organizations. The $20 million campaign, expected to run six years, is primarily funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJ), which has pledged the medical school with $135 million dollars for the first three-year phase and close to $1 million for the second phase. "The support of the founda- tion beautifully coincides with our mission to train primary care phy- sicians and to improve health care in eastern North Carolina said Dr. James A. Hallock, vice chan- cellor for health sciences and dean of the medical school. The program's primary con- cern is to beef up the roster of primary care doctors in North Carolina's smaller communities and rural areas. Because of the recent shortage of medical care, the residents in these communi- ties have had difficulty receiving basic medical services. According to a press release supplied by the Office of Medical Center Newsand Information, the number of primary physicians, such as family doctors, general internists and general pediatri- cians, is decreasing. Today, only 30 percent practice those special- ties. The RWJ Foundation re- sponded to the current need and started a national program. Eighty-three medical schools across the nation, sent proposals to the foundation. ECU was one of 14 applicants who received funding. Members of the project who have integral roles and have pledged more than $17 million in support include: Pitt County Me- morial Hospital, the North Caro- lina Office of Rural Health, the North Carolina Area Health Edu- cation Center Program, the North Carolina Medical Society's Com- munity Practitioner Program, Greene County Health Care, Roanoke-Chowan Hospital in Having j�S��.m fun? j�g0� ry One ECU '9 student takes HV time out of his B9MV 1 studies to M Jfl enjoy a bike Hfl ride through Hfin :M11 ' campus. jjfl Hope he didn't get hit by a construction vehicle.V �?G8- -Ni'ifc " Photo by Laslia Party Gl Bill turns 50 (CPS) � Chances are, even if they're not directly touched by the GI Bill, most students probably have been affected by its dramatic im- pact on the nation's economy and on higher education. Be- fore WWII, college was strictly for the financially elite. "The GI Bill was one of the major influences on uni- versities in the past lOOyears said Purdue University soci- ology professor Reece J. McGee. He said the legislation "democratized" colleges, opening them to the working class and changing the charac- ter of institutions and the cur- riculum "overnight Today marks the 50th anniversary of the "Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1994 or the "GI Bill of Rights as it came to be known. The bill provided for education and job haining, guaranteed loans for homes, farms or businesses, gave un- employment pay and assisted in finding jobs. As former President George Bush said in 1990: "The GI Bill changed the lives of millions by replacing old road- blocks with paths of opportu- nity. And, in doing so, it boosted America's work force, itboosted America'seconomy, and really, it changed the life See GI BILL page 3 New student shines ByTeri Howell Staff Writer Twenty miles away from Beaufort, North Carolina on a little island known as Harker's Island, lives Emily M. Hancock, the 1994 recipient of the Chancellor Scholar- ship. Hancock, a graduate of East Carteret High School, was chosen fromsome 80 finalists whoattended the Scholarship Selection at ECU, said Dr. James Smith, a philosophy professor and the executive assis- tant to the chancellor. Smith was one of the judges who was involved in the final 30-minute interviewing processof Hancock and seven other prospective students. "It was a tough competition said Smith. "ECU givesoutapproxi- mately 12 to 15 scholarships each year, and the Chancellor's Scholar- ship is the crown of all, totaling $20,000, which will hopefully cover the recipient's full education at ECU Hancock plans to major in musiceducation and hopes to teach choral music at the high school level, said Hancock's mother, Su- san. Mrs. Hancock said her daughter is a very thorough musi- cian, who sings, has been drum major for fouryears in high school, as well as first clarinet, and ex- tends her musical talent by play- ing the xylophone and the oboe. Smith said that Emily was one of the eight finalists who were judged on five distinctive catego- ries including the student's high school GPA, participation in ex- tra-curricular activities and public service, as well as the potential for outstanding leadership abilities and overall representation of ECU. "We know that the music courses will be very demanding and time-consuming said Mrs. Han :ock. "Even so, everyone at ECU has been wonderful,and they have shown what an excellent or- ganization they have, as well as trying to make this transition a good one for Emily Smith said Emily is a very personable person who has spent manyhoursconductingpublicand community service. "Itwasreallyamatterofhow these students presented them- selves thatday Smith said. "Emily was really something in all the five categories, and it's quite a story that she's carrying on after her mother and father who ooth are alumni of ECU Hancock is working this summer at a small craft store on the island called "The Lucky Duck doing an apprenticeship and painting decoys. Her mother added she is excited about attend- ing orientation next week. "Emily loves everything about ECU Mrs. Hancock said. "She's purple and gold on the in- side and out Hancock's mother described Harker's Island as a small fishing village where people live a simple way of life. "It all seems so simple, but if you grow up and work hard, it really paysoff Mrs. Hai icock said. "Emily has done that. It's like a Cinderella story Ahoskie, Martin General Hospi- tal in Williamston and Heritage Hospital in Tarboro. With the help of the founda- tion and other sources, ECU plans to increase the number of primary care physicians to 60 percent. If ECU is successful, it will have undertaken and succeeded in a feat no other medical school has attempted, persuading more of its graduates to practice in underserved areas. "We have created a partner- ship which brings tremendous strength and commitment to this effort said Dr. Thomas G. Irons, the medical school's senior asso- ciate dean and a principal archi- tect of the project. "All of our plans have been developed around the needs of the people we serve. With that strength, mission and com- mitment, I believe that we are bound to succeed The medical school plans to attack the issues beginning with dealing with a young person's earliest interest in medicine as a career to the veteran "country doctor" serving the rural popula- tion. Focal points for change in- clude recruiting and selecting medical school applicants who seem likely candidates for prac- ticing in rural areas, redesigning the curriculum to integrate pri- mary care instruction throughout all four years of medical school, relocating much of the clinical training to community practice sites and making the rural setting more hospitable to the practice of primary care medicine. The information highway will be used to link rural physi- cians with Greenville to offer mem technical support, prac- tice-relief and peer contact that previously have been missing. Permanent teaching sites will be established throughouteast- em North Carolina. Currently, teaching sites are located in Ahoskie, Williamston, Tarboro, Nags Head, Faison and Snow Hill. "Our hypothesis is that if our students and residents are training in these settings, they'll realize they can practice good medicine, that they have the re- sources they need, that the lifestyle is good, and that this type of practice is, in fact, an excellent option for them said Bob Hooley-Gingrich, who will manage ECU'S Generalist Phy- sician Program. Reserve officer speaks out By Jason Williams News Editor Working asa student reserve officer at ECU Public Safety is supposed to be a paying job, but at least one student says he has been working for free. Jeff Rorer, a junior chemis- try major, filed a formal complaint with the department alleging he had not been compensated for time spent in training and attend- ing mandatory meetings for the department. In response to his complaint, Layton Getsinger, as- sociate vice chancellor for busi- ness affairs, launched an investi- gation and Director of Public Safety Teresa Crocker vowed to change the policy regarding com- pensation for training. "I met with Director Crocker first Rorer said. "That was the action that prompted the investi- gation "They have a policy of man- datory meetings, training sessions Rorer said. "The meetings would average about two hours. That's just tradition with Public Safety; that's the way it's always been done. "I use my own free time to represent the university in those meetings and I think I should be compensated for this Crocker said Public Safety did have a policy that explicitly stated reserve officers would not be paid for training sessions, but that it definitely will be changed. "I think we should pay them for their training; that is only fair she said. "They will be paid for their training and for the meet- ings. People should be paid for things we ask them to do Crocker said the department will pay reserve officers currently on the payroll as well as the offic- ers returning in the fall. Rorer's is the first complaint about the policy. She said another of Rorer's complaints, the policy requiring reserves to return to campus early before each semester, could not be changed. She said these offic- ers were needed to help students move in the dorms, provide gen- eral security, et cetera. Getsinger said a 1990 Stan- dard Operating Procedure (SOP) stated the training and other time was time donated to the univer- sity. He said Public Safety has never compensated reserve offic- ers for time spent in training. "I don't agree with this phi- losophy Getsinger said. "I think he ought to be paid. If this train- ing relates to job-specific infor- mation, then we should be paying them Getsinger said according to the previous reserve officer su- pervisor, the reserves set their own policies. "They pretty much ran themselves he said. "They made their own SOP, and they set their own guidelines for training. The current SOP does not specify whether training is on the clock or off the clock Getsinger said he has con- tacted the N.C. State Wage and Hour Office about the matter. "The people at the wage and hour office said it would ap- pear that we need to pay some- body for that type of work he said. "The policy now is that he won't be paid, but we are willing to make it right "In the past, I've been paid for training at other jobs he said. "I worked for the library, an on-campus job, and they paid for mandatory training. That is university policy and it is also the law The law to which Rorer referred is the Fair Labor Stan- dards Act (FLSA) of 1938, amended most recently in 1989. This act states if an employee is engaged in on-the-job training, the employer must provide at least a minimum wage or a com- parable wage rate prescribed by the FLSA. Rorer has worked at Pub- lic Safety as a student reserve for over a year. He is still with the department and has no plans to quit. Box for sale! This employee looks as if he has seen better days in the shirt selling business. Perhaps he should target incoming freshmen and their parents. By dressing the fact that every freshman should have at least five shirts with the EC U logo before coming to school, he could convince parents of orientation students to buy their kids' clothes. By the way, how much for that box?

It certainly was for Chris Rice and Robert Poitras, who graduated from UNC in May. Instead of frantically sending out resumes, they are making plans to open Chapel Hill's first microbrewery. They plan to open The Carolina Brewery in the former Mast General Store building on West Franklin Street sometime this fall. Mast General Store closed this spring because of low sales. A brew pub is an on-site, craft brewery that produces between 500 and 5,000 barrels of beer a year. Because microbreweries make a small amount of beer, they do not have to pasteurize the beer or use any additives to preserve shelf life. Is an MBA worthwhile? Nearly three-fourths of executives and human resource manag- ers responding to a recent Penn State survey say they would advise their own sons and daughters that an MBA degree is still worth having. However, more than half of those surveyed also say they plan to hire fewer MBAs in the future. The results come from a survey of 153 Forbes 500 companies conducted by the Penn State Smeal College of Business Administration. According to the survey, 715 percent of those polled say they wouldn't try to talk their children our of pursuing an MBA, while only 10 percent say they would discourage such plans. Still, 56 percent expect to hire fewer MBAs in the future and say that three to five years of work experience will be a must in their hires. More than 61 percent also say they plan to fill their future human resource needs with bachelor's degree recipients and to later rely upon executive development programs to enhance that talent. Students sign up for Rush (Limbaugh) class Talk-show host Rush Limbaugh is a man people either seem to love or loathe. His views are treated as dogma by some and dog meat by others. Now, Limbaugh's controversial discourse is the subject of a class at Bellevue College, where students can decide whether or not they agree with the political commentator. "Is Rush Right? Learning from the Conflicts" is a new class offered by the small liberal arts college, located just outside of Kansas City. Students are required to read Limbaugh's two books, as well as material that takes an oppos- ing viewpoint to various issues. They also have guest speakers who present their sides of issues on subjects such as abortion, welfare and international policy. The class then discusses their own opinions. Although the two Bellevue professors encourage open discussions in the class, they are careful not to get personally engulfed in the issues. Compiled by Stephanie Lassiter.

(CPS) � One in six women born in the late 1950s, will never have children, the Census bureau estimates, and if the trend contin- ues, that generation will have al- most twice the percentage of non- moms than the previous one. But what about women born in the early 1970s who are today's col- lege seniors? Will even more childless couples emerge from the younger generation as well? The answers are compli- cated. One reason is the more childbearing years a woman has ahead of her, the more difficult it is to predict whether she'll have children. Most childless women under 40 plan to have children in the future, but a certain percent- age will not succeed or will change their minds. The Census Bureau esti- mates up to 24 percent, almost one in four, of women now age 18-24 will never have children. Only eight percent of women in CHAPEL HILL, N.C.

Still, the class of 1994 is just getting started, and many gradu- ates are unsure of where they will end up. "Most of my friends are more worried about getting dates than getting married said se- nior Kenny Baer of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania. "Children seem way off in the distent fu- ture But the Bureau tends to be a good guesser when it comes to population patterns. Twelve years ago, its figures predicted that as many as 17 percent of women, then25-29, would remain childless. Today 10 percent of these women remain childless. Last-minute births are expected to cut the group's childless rate to 15 percent. Not having children is more acceptable among college stu- dents of the 1990s, said Leslie Lafayette, of the ChildFree Net- work, in Roseville, Calif. Lafayette works to debunk what she says are the idealistic myths of parenthood, and show people childlessness can be a rewarding option. "When I speak at colleges, I'm hearing more and more young people saying they're not going to have kids because they don't like what's going on in society she said. "Their attitude is they won't have control over what happens to the child "Personally, I don't want children said Clint Talbott, an editor at the University of Colo- rado-Boulder's Colorado Daily. "I don't want them to mess up my life. And I'm worried about the environment Roxanne Hawn, 26, and her husband Tom, both of Denver, have been married for two years and are worried about the economy and safety. "I don't know how people can afford kids she said. "It's a danger- ous world. I would be afraid my child would get killed College-educated women like Roxanne are less likely to have children than their less-schooled counter- parts. Recent statistics show that 24 out of 100 college-edu- cated American white women between the ages of 35 and 44 have no children. For college- educated black women, the figure is 20 out of 100, indi- cate U.S. Census Bureau fig- ures. A college education is a more powerful determinant of whether and when a woman has children, than race or religion. Women in graduate school programs have an even greater rate of childlessness. "The more edu- cation a woman has, the less likely she is to have children Lafayette said. NCBriefs ASHEVILLE (AP) � The U.S. House is expected to con- sider funding for a permanent headquarters for the Blue Ridge Parkway this week. An allocation of $695,000 for preparing an 82-acre site on Hemphill Knob near Asheville is part of an Interior Department ap- propriations bill that cleared the House Appropriations Commit- tee on Friday. "It's been a hard fight said U.S. Rep. Charles Taylor, R-N.C, a member of the committee. "But if we can get the funding passed and get the construction under way, that pretty well obligates Congress to complete the fund- ing. Total cost of the project is estimated at $14 million.

"Evidently, workers in the laundry area had an accident and spilled some cleaning chemicals Smith said. All the employees were re- leased after they were checked out in the emergency room. Firefighter Mike Varnum was treated for dehydration and heat exhaustion and released from the hospital. Fire officials identified the chemicals as sodium hypochlo- rite and phosphoric acid.

"It allowed those people to have a college education, and they flocked back to the universi- ties around the country. Not only did it change their lives and the whole structure of the university system it also changed America At the time President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the bill into law, millions of WWII servicemen and women would soon be returning home. It was widely believed their return would mean widespread unem- ployment and would throw the nation into an economic depres- sion, as it had after World War I. WWI veterans, many physi- cally disabled, struggled to sur- vive after the war. Very little had been done to assist them medi- cally, and there was no effort to help them readjust after their dis- charge. Upon returning home, they found they had another battle to fight. "There had never been a law on the country's books to help war veterans get back on their feet Wood said. "So from their own experience, (WWI veterans) were wondering, 'What's going to hap- pen to these guys coming back? In 1943, veterans began a grassroots movement to ensure a better fate for these younger vet- erans. After considerable effort, they were joined by journalists, politicians and the general public in making this bill a reality. Since then, it has helped to educate more than 20 million Americans and purchase more than 14 million homes. "It is called 'The Act that Changed America and it did, because it sent so many to col- lege Wood said. "They became more educated; therefore, they started businesses, they became captains of industry, they became presidents and CEOs of big com- panies, they further industrialized Brand New For '94 IQartmew at Kingston Place 1 & 2 BEDROOM2 BATH APARTMENTS AVAILABLE IN JULY POOL � CLUBHOUSE � PRIVATE LAUNDRY � FREE CABLE AND WATER � PRIVATE BALCONIES � FULLY CARPETED � CENTRAL AIR & HEAT � DISHWASHERS & DISPOSALS � BLINDS � WASHERDRYER CONNECTIONS AND RENTALS � ECU BUS .

The whole bill is considered by the V A (Veterans Administration) and many others to have repaid itself over 20 times its original investment. So it was an amazing thing. It created a whole new middle class in the United States Half of the eligible WWII veterans, nearly 8 million, used the new educationtraining pro- grams. This increased the employ- ability of veterans in better-pay- ing technical and professional positions. It also kept them out of the labor force longer, allowing the economy to absorb the job- seekers more slowly. Under the plan, veterans (with no dependents) were given up to $50 a month for subsistence and the university received up the $500 a year for tuition, books and fees for 48 months. By 1947, veter- ans accounted for half the nation's college enrollment. In 1939, about 160,000 graduated from four-year colleges. In 1950, nearly a half million graduated. The total cost of the WWII program was $14.5 billion. "It certainly changed the university system. Land-grant c leges, like Purdue, Indiana, Ohio State, University of Florida, just bloomed into huge institutions becoming huge factories Wood said. In fact, the insurgence of stu- dents probably saved many insti- tutions as enrollments had dimin- ished due to the Depression and the war. Suddenly, this enrollment explosion sent schools scrambling to build residence halls and class- rooms. The loan guaranty benefits also started a building boom. GIs had lost their opportunity to es- tablish favorable credit, so this program compensated them by guaranteeing half the loan amount and requiring no down payment and a 4 percent interest rate.

At first, not everyone sup- ported the bill, fearing it would encourage laziness and lower stan- dards of education. "Scholars were afraid that the GI would pull the average university grades down said former Senate Majority Leader Ernest McFarland in a 1978 inter- view withlif Arizona Republic. "Instead of that, they were the ones who made the best grades Wood recalled the impact on education firsthand. As part of the class of 1950, he attended school with the largest wave of post- WWII GIs. He describes 1946, when he was just 17 and enrolled at Purdue University. (Later, after serving in the Marine Corps, Wood also used the GI Bill to earn his master's degree at Notre Dame.) "I was right out of high school, green, fresh, wet behind the ears, and practically every- body in my fraternity house was a veteran. I was among all these guys that had fought a war, they'd gone and laid their lives on the line, they'd flown 50 missions in iLurcc-e, been shot at, some vounded.

I'm not only talking about writing the masthead for the first (and last) time, but that universal of all human experiences: transition. Yes, you know what I'm leading up to. It's graduation time for your friendly neighborhood Kemple Boy, and although I say it with some trepidation, it's a welcome experience indeed. I suppose the inherent "weirdness" of my situation emanates not only from the obvious anxiety of having to join the real world after years of only having to think of it in a disconnected, abstract sense, but also because, and I'm probably not alone in this, I tend to wax nostalgic whenever I'm about to go through a transition period. Even though I swear to myself I'll never do it, I always take a look back and reminisce, like all of those trite little sitcom episodes where, rather than write a new script, the writers treat you to a half-hour of old clips. I've worked here at The East Carolinian for five years now, ever since my first week of my freshman year. That was the first real inception of the entity known as Kemple Boy, and yes, if there's any of you who care, I'll go ahead and dispel the myth of why I decided to name a character after myself. It's not because I'm conceited, or a narcissist, or because I love seeing my name in print (no wait, that part is true). Put simply, I couldn't come up with anything else. It was all a big joke. It wasn't because I was taking myself too seriously, but rather, I was kind of poking fun at myself. At the time, I thought I'd get bored with it, quit and draw another strip anyway. The. satire I was doing grew into a full-fledged adventure strip, however, and the more stories I did, the more ideas that popped in my head. Little did I know the cult following the strip, and the comics page in general, which would emerge. Ah, what youthful fun. Spending all day doing silh.little art projects, then spending all night doing my cartoons, never sleeping, taking in caffeine intravenously, and wondering if it was all worth it. Vyell, I think it was. Hanging out with Parker and all the others from the old crew, drawing, reading tons o' comics, overdosing on Bojangles biscuits, drawing painting, putting up with some of my instructors' elitist, arrogant and uniformed opinions on the hierarchy of the arts, trying to have a social life whenever possible, oh, and did I mention drawing? But the culmination of all my collegiate experiences came when I got the "job of jobs" for any aspiring college cartoonist, the Staff Illustrator position. Okay, get out yer hankies, this is the mushy part. Of all the friends that have come and gone in my life, my colleagues here at the newspaper are the ones I hold dearest. Honestly folks, you don't know what a great crew you have here. The amount of work these people do just to put out a quality college paper, in comparison to all the headaches, late school assignments, misdirected complaints, and low wages they get in return would make your head spin. And not to knock other schools, but I've seen their papers, and they don't have anything on ECU. Trust me, chump change! So thank you to Amy, Alex, Gregory, Burt, Deborah, and all the others who have stuck around, supported and helped me throughout this entire insane year. I salute you, and know you'll all go far. And to all of the talented young cartoonists who I've had the pleasure of working under me this year, keep drawing, and always strive for excellence! It's always easy to give up when no one understands all the extra work you have to do, but it'll all pay off in the end, if you persist! As for me, I'm off to the zany, wild, sometimes frightening, and financially unstable world of comic books! So, goodbye ECU, thanks for reading all my exploits, as fictional as they were, over the years, and keep looking for me; you never know where my work will pop up! Keep your fingers crossed � I'll dispel that idiotic Generation X label yet! Well, I'll see you in the funny books�and long live Dean Martin! Heeeeeey now! By Laura Wright �fim "Reactions to O.J. case reveal Xers attitudes : First of all, I would like to say thatl am sick of all the hype about Generation X. I'm tired of it, because I can't seem to get away froin it. Every activity in which I participate reflects some sort of preconceived notion of myself and tfie "generation" to which I supposedly belong. I'm sick of saying, "How postmodern of me or, "How slack of you But, in spite of the fact that I don't want to be categorized as an Xer, certain events seem to solidify that categorization. Second of all, 1 would like to nominate Danny Glover for the role of O. J. Simpson. Last Saturday night, after attending the premiere of Wolf, I sat around with some friends and wOcJied e "O- J- Simpson Case" on- CfIS? Seriously. Like it was already a movie. Every time there w�a commercial break, an airCnished O. J. would appear on th�; screen in front of a multicolored backdrop (we decided it was left over from the David Koresh medi event) and sad music would play. We sat around until 2 a.m drinking beer, chocolate Yoo-Hoo, eahhg cotton candyrom the gas station down theistreet and laughing-1 am horrified, as I look bacVftow, that we could be so amused. There were, after all, two murders at the corejpf all of the surre'aiity before us. St somehow, as is so often the cafc, the crime had been obscured by the melodrama of media coverage. And the media coverage, along with absurd details of the killings (for example, the murder weapon was either a samurai sword or a truncheon. Excuse me? That is like saying, as my friend Kevin remarked, "the murder weapon was either a bookcase or �an egg beater") allowed the events to unfold before us like a bad T. V. show. Like a cross between the "Dukes of Hazard" and "Murder She Wrote We listened to an account of the 60-mile, high speed chase that had taken place earlier. All I could do was picture O. J. Simpson, mm football in hand, All I could do was pic- ture O.J. Simpson, foot- ball in hand, running through a crowed airport . . . cops on his heels, trying desparately to reach the Hertz office. running (in slow motion) through a crowded airport, knocking people out of the way, cops on his heels, trying desperately to reach the Hertz rental car office � When we saw prerecorded coverage of the actual chase, we were a bit disappointed. The cars weren't moving fast enough; no bullets were being fired. It occurred to me that I'd never seen a real chase before; I'd only seen such pursuit in movies. Perhaps real high-speed chases were different. Perhaps if high-speed chases occur outside of staged Hollywood fantasy, I can no longer have any concept of reality. After Saturday night, it may be a long time before I try to separate fact from fiction. Just when we thought the situation on CNN couldn't get any worse, it did. A polic officer described how another officer, disguised as a bush, waited in O. Js yard for the chase to come to an end. A bush? We tried to pick out this guy in the film footage. Never By Patrick Hinson Victims' rights ignored by our justice system �nind that O. J. Simpson has been accused of murder, never mind that he seems to have flipped out, led police on a high-speed chase, written what sounded like a suicide note and finally surrendered � we wanted to see the guy dressed like a bush. We speculated as to whether or not the government was behind this event; perhaps as a way to keep the world oblivious to the war that could have started with Korea while we sat discussing how much funnier it would have been if it had been Harrison Ford instead of O. J. Simpson. The Fugitive as the fugitive. Remind me (again) never to move to Los Angeles. So this is what has happened to us, perhaps as a generation, but more likely as a society. We have become too jaded to be shocked, too cynical to be sympathetic, especially when we get the play- by-play of every newsworthy event. Every absurd detail comes complete with a backdrop and a cheesy soundtrack. There was even a telephone number for viewers to call and comment. We tried to call � we were going to ask if there was any suspicion that O. J. Simpson was connected in any way to the Kennedy assassination � but the line was busy. I am slightly uneasy about my ability to make light of such a situation, but after the gulf war coverage, Lorena Bobbitt and Nancy and Tonya, I can't really expect to have any other reaction. I suppose that if there's a Hell, my friends and I might end up there because of our attitudes, but I don't think any of us really believe in such a concept. But if there is a Hell, I imagine it's a lot like L. A. and I imagine that I'll be forced to watch CNN 24 hours a day. I wasn't surprised at all to see O.J. Simpson plead not guilty the other day in court. I can't say I believe him at this point, but I'm still trying to keep an open mind that he may yet be proven innocent. However, the current circumstances and what we know of his actions sure seem to paint a different picture as to what he was going through after the murders of his ex-wife and Ronald Goldman. The letters that he wrote that were read aloud on the news seemed very much to me like suicide notes from a very guilt- ridden person. His actions prior to the murders seemed to point to the probability that he was at least capable of perhaps completely losing it with his ex-wife at some point, as he may have now done. Who knows, at this point, what actur ly happened, but, presuming that he is guilty, which I can't help but feel, I wonder what his legal moves will be. First, there's a lot of evidence against him. If there wasn't, the district attorney in Los Angeles wouldn't have filed charges. You don'tjustarrestsomeoneand then build your case, you've got to have solid evidence against that person before you make that kind of critical move. There's no murder weapon though. I wonder where it is. It will be very hard to really nail O.J. without having a weapon, and a way to completely tie him to it. Without the murder weapon, there remains a lot of doubt. I can't help but feel that it will turn up eventually, though. With so many police working on this case, I doubt many stones will be left unturned. I also can't help but feel that the defense will seek to use O.Js public persona in their favor � to paint him somehow as the true victim in all of this, which is the grand new trend in defense law these days (see the Menendez case). Everywhere I turn lately I see defense lawyers getting their clients off by making the jury believe that the perpetrator was the real victim, that they were only products of the cruel circumstances that led up the their crimes. The rights of the victims seem to be the very last thing we consider when trying murder cases, especially with high profile crimes. The cry for rehabilitation drowns out the lost voices of the victims, who had no chance to defend themselves, who had no opportunity to speak up on their own behalf, who, as we so often seem to forget, had a right not to be raped, assaulted, or murdered. What happens to their rights? What happens to ours, when it happens to us? The answer lately seems to be that it doesn't matter, that what happened to the victim is something that we cannot change, thus it is of less importance than the matter at hand, the rights of the accused. I agree that certain circumstances build up to criminal action, but I also believe that we should lay off on the rights of criminals and start caring a little more about the rights of the victims. O.J Simpson's wife and that young guy had every right in the world to go on living, to make whatever they wished to make out of their lives. Yet, that was greedily and brutally taken from them by someone else, and no one has the right to do that. On the local news the other day I saw a guy who killed his own mother, cut off her head and burned her body in his front yard. Do you wonder what will happen to him? I'd bet anything that he'll be found unfit to stand trial, and will no doubt spend the rest of his life (probably forty or fifty more years) in an institution, just one more criminal living out his years at the expense of the tax payers, the victims. We pay with our lives, with our rights, and then we pay with our dollars. Michael Faye, the young lad who received so much attention from the lashings he earned in Singapore, was released from jail in that country yesterday. Those who don't feel that capital punishment, or even harsh, mandatory punishment for certain crimes is an effective deterrent, should ask Mr. Faye if he plans on spray painting any more vehicles in Singapore while he's there. I believe certain things have gone too far. I think they'll continue to do so until people finally get mad enough to speak up for changes, until we finally get tired of always being the victims. As for what the future may hold for Mr. Simpson, well, I think no matter what, in my heart and in the hearts of many others, O.J. has definitely run his last touchdown. It's damn hard to have any heroes these days. -Letters to the Editor. To the Editor: As a recent graduate of East Carolina University- in Music Therapy and Music Education, I am very pleased with vour efforts to educate the ECU community about Music Therapy, a profession that is growing at a rapid pace. Using the power of music to heal is a concept that has been around for hundreds of years. Although the article Music has the power to heal, which appeared in the June 8,1994 issue of The East Carolinian, was brief, it touched on many of the avenues music therapists can take to help people from all walks of life, all of whom have a wide variety of needs. Everyone can benefit from Music Therapy. Thank you for your time, and I hope to see more coverage of Music Therapy, as well as other professions in music, in the future. Bess Clyburn ECU '94 Graduate To the Editor: East Carolina University truly amazes me! Poor ECU, plagued with a "party-school reputation administrators are trying so hard to shake. It appears that ECU has been growing, and beginning to reach the level of professionalsim and scholastic expertise that UNC-Chapel Hill and NC State have dominated for so long. I once had pride in this theory, arguing with my State and Carolina friends that ECU is just as good a university as their own. How wrong I was. I look back at the four years that I spent on the ECU campus, and realize how disrespectfully I was treated by administrators every time I had to register, ask a question, solve a problem or pay one of the many fees. And now, the lowest blow. The blow that has pushed me into finally admitting that no, ECU may never reach that professional level. I graduated on May 7,1994. However, it is now June 13. 1994, and it appears that I may not receive my diploma until 1995.1 have called my department, deans and finally the registrars office, and have been told in an unpolite sic, unapologetic way, "Oh, they haven't been sent out yet, maybe next week This is unexcusable. My friends at State and Carolina, who also graduated in May, received their diplomas on the day that they graduated. Which brings me to anouther question: Why did I not receive my diploma on May I am furious, I am embarassed, and I will definitely have to think very seriously before I give the alumnae sic department a penny when they begin to beg for my money, or when I consider where to do my graduate work.

June 22. 1994 rage a Opinion Page Supplement By Jason Williams By Brian Hall United Nations thanklessly continues its mission A modest proposal to solve U.S. foreign policy woes The United Nations gets a bad rap. Liberals call the organization weak and ineffective, and blame it for not responding to many crises around the world. Conservatives say it is too powerful and it undermines the sovereignty of each member nation. Even farther right are those such as televangalist Pat Robertson who say the U.N. is an attempt at world government and therefore fulfills doomsday biblical prophesy. Although each claim is made with conviction, none is made with thoughtful consideration. As is my habit, however, I tend to side with the liberals. The mere conception of an "association of nations" is quite an accomplishment, and we have philosophers such as Hugo Grotius and Immanuel Kant to thank for that. Woodrow Wilson was responsible for the League of Nations, the current organization's predecessor, formed at the end of World War I. Unfortunately, a group of haughty and provincial Senators led by Republican Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts opposed the League and refused to sign the Treaty of Versailles. That treaty, based on Wilson's Fourteen Points, established the organization in Europe; but without the support of a superpower, it would not survive the conflicts of the 1930's. Following WWII, U.S. leaders such as FDR, Truman and Eisenhower had the foresight not to make the same isolationist mistake again. There were the narrow-minded then, as in .Vilson's time, but there were also the "one-worlder's a group committed to greater cooperation between nations. In the end, a middle ground was forged and thus arose the U.N. Over the years, the U.N. has not solved every world problem, but has steadily gained in stature and significantly added to the peace. Early leaders dropped the ball when they allowed the U.S. and the Zionist movement to seize Palestinian land for an Israeli state, but the organization voted then and since then against Israel's use of force in the Middle East. The U.N. handled the end of colonization and the surge of "nationism" (a made-up word to describe the proliferation of countries following WWII) as well as could be expected given the political climate at the time. Is the U.N. strong enough? Probably not, given that what the world expects of it. In the bi-polar world of the cold war past, either the United States or the Soviet Union kept the peace in most of the world. They acted not on humanitarian motives, but rather out of national self-interest. Now, in the days of a single, reluctant superpower, the world needs an international organization more than ever. The U.N. should be given more power to enforce its resolutions, especially those of the General Assembly. Only the U.S. has that power, and the current administration, seemingly not knowing what to do with it, might be willing to grant the U.N. more authority to act. One aspect of the organization's structure that has reduced its capacity to act in the past is the Security Council veto. A veto by any one of the five permanent members of the Security Council � the U.S the U.S.S.R. (Russia), China, Great Britain or France � would halt an action, even if the vote was 14 to one. The Security Council should probably be disbanded, or at least stripped of most of its power. As a deliberative body, the U.N. should involve all nations in policy- making, a job for the General Assembly. Is the U.N. an infringement of national sovereignty? Not really. Nations freely join, or refuse to join the organization, and indeed, some countries (notably Switzerland) are not members. Granted, the world community pressures nations to join, but that is a positive thins, comparable to urging people in a democracy to vote. A resolution of the U.N in and of itself, does not have teeth; it is up to individual (or collective) nations to enforce sanctions, defend territory, et cetera. This was the case in the Persian Gulf war of 1990 and is the case in most major military initiatives. Peacekeeping missions involving U.N. troops are on the rise, but usually to intervene in wars rather than to interfere with domestic policies. Is the U.N. a world government? Absolutely not. Robertson and his gang of isolationists act on selfish, outdated and backward notions, and are simply afraid of internationalism. These people need an enemy, a bogeyman such as the communists, and the U.N. currently fits the bill. The organization will survive, in spite of the criticism, if for no other reason than we haven't thought of anything better. The 50 years since its creation probably ranks among the most peaceful half-centuries in world history, and the U.N. should be around to celebrate its 100th birthday in relative peace as well. As we are all made aware of every night on the news, our world is greatly troubled. Large portions of our globeare wracked with civil strife, famine, human rights abuses and general turmoil. Many of us wish that we could do something about these horrific problems; we wish that we might do something to alleviate the suffering in the Third World, but we feel as thought we cannot. However, there is a rather simple solution, which I humbly submit for your thoughtful consideration. The obvious problem is a lack of stability, brought on by a lack of focus and leadership in our post-Cold War world. With the end of the communist threat, America has turned increasingly inward, as the Russians frantically try to put their own house in order. Mv modest proposal to solve this problem is a return to that which worked in the past. For it is by looking to the past that we may find answers to our current troubles. In sum, what I propose is a return to imperialism, unilaterally if need be, but hopefully with the support of our European allies. Now, no doubt, many will object to this idea, believing the concept is unfair. Perhaps there is some merit to this charge. However, we Americans will have to learn to bear a little extra burden, unfair as it may be, to help our brethren in distress. It is our Christian duty. Some may believe that our already troubled economy will not be able to handle the strain of such expensive adventures. However, surely any such expenditures will be more than made up for by the new business opportunities, which will present themselves in our new colonies. Moreover, if, as I suspect, our European allies have become too weak and effete to participate, then America will have a unique advantage heading into the next century. While the term "imperialism" is now used only pejoratively, I feel that after due consideration, such a plan cannot fail to'garner overwhelming popular support. We all know of the Republicans enthusiasm for foreign adventures. On the Democrat side, the administration is already considering a watered down version of this same plan, as we contemplate an invasion of Haiti. Such an a'ction is vociferously supported by the Congressional Black Caucus. While the president claims American troops would be hastily withdrawi, the very fact that we are considering interfering in the internal affairs of another country proves that we really still believe that America should rule the world. Perhaps our "New Democrat" president could overcome objections by labeling this "New Imperialism This proposal will also have the happy result of easily refuting the pitiful arguments against intervention. No more will opponents of action be able to ask, "What is America's vital interest in Haiti?" (or whatever nation in which we are currently considering intervention.) Our vital interest will be that we need to take over, for the benefit of nqt only the citizens of the new colony, who have obviously proven themselves incapable of self- government, but also for the furtherance of the American. Dream. No longer will the- plaintive lament of "When will' our boys be coming home?" be' effective. For this will be met by the stout reply, "They are neSetf coming home The final benefit of this pUxu would be to mMvate those native leaders who are governing troubled areas. These men would now have a solid reason to unite with their domestic enemies. Together, perhaps they could solve their nation's problems, making American intervention unnecessary. Just image discussions between various factions in South Africa, Israel or Rwanda if the United States adSpts such a policy. Overnight, they' would find creative ways to solve their problems, in a misguided attempt to avoid annexation. Surely no one could oppose' such a policy. Our world would be safer and America more prosperous. Those living in third world countries would have human rights and democracy, as1 well as the free market, forced' upon them, without the tediousness of convincing them of the validity of these ideas. Surely even those natives killed by our' invasion forces would willingly give their lives for such ari eventuality. Be a campus leader � write for The East Carolinian.

It's an elu- sive opportunity, especially when the rebirth has to fake place in a music community- as fickle as our fair Emerald City. The Stegmonds, a former Greenville juggernaut, have such an opportunity this Friday night, when they hold a CD release party at The Attic. Formed at ECU in 1987, the band has suffered . through difficult lineup changes and a transition toward original music that had seen a decline in the size of their Greenville audi- ence. Only by holding fast to their belief in themselves have The Stegmonds started to win back that coveted Greenville follow- ing. The release of their debut CD, Miso's Tango, represents a new chapter in The Stegmond's his- tory. After its initial formation, the group began plotting a course to conquer the Greenville night- club scene; which it did, becom- ing ECU's favorite classic-rock group in the late 1980's. The band d rew mobs of fans and became a mainstay at the Attic, the area's largest nightclub. The addition of frontman Martin Sledge furthered the group's impact as it began to spread to other states and add to its formidable status. The Stegmonds were among Greenville's elite bands until Sledge announced that he was leaving the group to pursue other interests nearly two years ago. While perceived by many at the time to herald the group's demise, according to the Stegmond's Pete Frederick, the band was actually relieved at Sledge's decision. "It was a two-fold reaction between relief and apprehen- sion Frederick said. "The relief came from the fact that at that point (Sledge's) commitment was in question. He didn't seem to be happy with dealing with life on the roadit just wasn't his bag. Then, the apprehension came in from us being a full-time band that was losing its singer.

He said that the group maintains a good relationship with Sledge and holds no hard feelings towards their former frontman. After Sledge's departure, the group continued on as a four- piece, and while they remained strong in many markets, their au- dience LnGreenvilledeclined. Ac- cording to drummer Jeff Alford, that decline is hard to deal with. "It's tough Alford said. "But it's also kind of a fire under the ass. It really made us sit down and think about what we wanted to do and evaluate if it was worth it. The bottom line is that we got to the point where we are now writh the CD The group soon added pia- nistorganist Micheal Thrower to contribute to the depth of the Stegmonds'sound. Frederick said that Thrower's playing gives the band a new dimensionand has allowed for the evolution of the band's signature sound. Alford said that the group had many "great debates" about re- cording the project but feels proud of the finished product. Accord- ing to the veteran drummer, it seems more worthwhile to be pre- senting original material rather than just the covers that brought the Stegmonds their fame. "Any musician knows that when you're pushing your own material it's a lot more intense Alford said. "Now that there is a product to work with, something the audience can relate to, it feels really good Frederick said that the title of the CD reflected the duality in everyday life, particularly in rela- tionships. "Miso is a euphemism for hate he said. "And a tango is a dance of peace and love, so it's a paradox of sorts. In the title track, the lead character is trying to find a woman and the song reflects his love for the opposite sex and his hate of being rejected all the time. I think that's something everyone can relate to at one time or an- other While the theme of the album will be no mystery for listeners to figure out, how the band named itself still remains one. Discount- ing a recent account given to the local tabloid, the Independent, as "a lie Frederick promised to give the true account of the naming of the Stegmonds to TEC. "You see, we were all raised by the Reverend Desmond Stegmond who brought us up to plav this music he said. "While he did admit that rock and roll is the devil's music, he allowed us to play it to keep us from doing more devilish deeds. Really, it was a 'lesser of twoevils' kind of thing. He had a profound effect on us, hence the name 'TheStegmonds (Editor's note: Uh, yeah, and it really takes three licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop.) How the group really named itself is irrelevant, however, as the importance of the band lies in its future. According to Alford, the band plans to make no changes from its current direc- tion, and will continue to push its original music towards new audiences. "We're going to continue to write music and push the origi- nal thing he said. "All we can do is keep working and try to take this band as far as it can go Take Your Chances Various Artists Kiss My Ass � Ah, the American Family. Mom, Dad, little Timmy, and Sister Sue, all sitting down to pray over a nutritious meal of white bread and raw meat in their KISS make-up. 1 leartwairning,isn'tit?Well, maybe not, but it's at least an appropriate image lor the cover of Kss My Ass, i compilation of KISS tunes cov- ered bv artists who grw up listen- ing to the mighty Knights In Satan's Service. ' Perhaps the most amazing hing about Kiss My ASS is the wide ange of artists who worked on it. rhe disc features peoppe with such lifferent musical sensibilities as uirth Brooks, Anthrax, Toad the A'et Sprocket, and Japanese rock .tar Yoshiki. This odd mix gives the lisc a diverse sound, which is a ilessing. I grew up listening to KISS, oo, and most of the standards cov- ered here sound a little tired to my ears. But for all you KISS purists out there, don't whine if something doesn't sound "right" to you; Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley over- saw this whole project, so it has the KISS Seal of Approval. My favorite track on Kiss My Ass has to be Toad the Wet Sprocket's version of "Rock and Roll All Nite Sure to piss off all those KISS purists I just mentioned, this one takes away all the boister- ous, blind stupidity of the original and turns the song into an earnest acoustic ballad. Imagine, if you can, someone delivering the line "You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy" as if it had deep emotional impact. Oh, go ahead and laugh. The giggles are sure to con- tinue as KISS meets Mozart on Yoshiki's classica 1 version of" Black Diamond Yes, Yoshiki arranged this KISS standard for full orches- tral accompaniment, provided here by the American Symphony Or- chestra. Some will dismiss it as el- evator music, but I howled with laughter for the entire seven min- utes of this track. Especially funny is the point where the violinist nails this song's tricky bridge. I nearly coughed up a lung. The other interesting tracks on Kiss My Ass play with the KISS originals without being quite so bizarre. The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, for instance, remain true to the heart of "Detroit Rock City" See KISS page 14 Broadway Cast Damn Yankees M One of David Lettermen'sTop Ten Lists concerned lines spoken by Arnold Schwarzenegger that were ed i ted out of various movies. The actor actually read the list with a straight face as if each were a catch line to be muttered before a bad guy was dispatched in a cre- atively violent way. Among such gems as "Time to make the dough- nuts, you bastard and "Mmmmm, Fudge was the num- ber one line, "Why, yes, I do love show tunes Show tunes have long been an easy punch line for stereotyping those who are supposed to be tragi- cally squareandunhip, along with those who sing "Kumbiva" and "John Jacob Jingleheimerschm id t But with the astounding success of the sales for recent theatrical soundtracks, show tunes � the Worth A Try Highly Recommended bane of the cool � are the genre of choice for many a music lover, es- pecially those coming out of high school. (Remember everyone wear- ing shirts for "Cats "Les Miserables" and "The Phantom of the Opera" about five or six years ago?) Such success has led produc- ers to dust of f Broad way classics in hopes of making a killing in licens- ing. "Guys and Dolls "The Man of La Mancha" and "Grease" are prime examples of shows recently revived with songs proven to bring in the dough. And it's worked. (Bogies has played "You're The One That I Want" from "Grease" for the masses on the dance floor. I do not lie.) Make no mistake� musicals, while not immediately the first financiallv-proven genre to spring to mind, are cash cows par excellence. The success of Disney films of the last decade, both in theaters and stores, prove that. The revival of "Damn Yan- kees" is no surprise. When it de- buted in the mid50s, "Yankees" was huge. It's phenomenal songs and inspired, truly American storyline (selling your soul to the devil to ensure your beloved base- ball team beats their arch rivals to win the pennant) and actingearned Tony Awards galore. The aristo- cratic devil, Applegate and his pet temptress, Lola, plot against the middle-aged Joe Boyd made into the twentysomething "Shoeless" Joe Hardy who's trving to lead his By Kris Hoffler Staff Writer Saturday night, Hardee's Walnut Creek Amphitheater hosted the fourth annual WRDU Earth Buddies concert. This show was conceived with the idea of raising awareness of environmental issues through music. Along with the music there were many booths set up by various organiza- tions concerned with the envi- ronment, including Greenpeace, The Nature Con- servancy, and the North Caro- lina Parks and Recreation de- partment. All organizations offered information on environmen- tal consciousness and many sold t-shirts and other "con- scious" items. Probably one of the most interesting was the "make your own hat from gar- bage" booth. You could tell the people who had been there, they were wearing some type of cardboard, styrofoam and plastic construction of their head: quite amusing. Now for the music. The two acts that brought in the crowds were the Crash Test Dummies and Elvis Costello and the Attractions. The crowd was very diverse; old, very young, matured hippies and an abundance of slack- ers. I think most of the ma- ture audience was there for the Crash Test Dummies, thev seemed to be fewer af- ter the first act was over. Mavbe it had something to do with the volume of Costello's performance. The Crash Test Dummies were the first to take the stage. They created a small club feel to the concert, the lead-singer joked with the audience about everything from copperheads being in the grass area to how the sun looked like it was made in N.C. The lead singer's deep, resonating baritone was complimented by the two female keyboard players; their harmony was both soothing and eerie. Their set wss short and sweet, lasting about only an See COSTELLO page 7 Photo by Kris Hoffler The Crash Test Dummies, perhaps the most unique offering of new music acts, opened Elvis Costello's Walnut Creek concert.

The cast recording works like a radio play so those who have never heard of Gwen Verdon or the musical team of Adlerand Ross can pop the CD into their players and follow along (except for the schism betweeft the two acts, which is a bit of a jump). And for those who don't know much about ei- ther version of "Damn Yankees two things will surprise, both of which are in full bloom in the new version. First are the songs. They soar. "Heart "Who's Got the Pain?" and "Those Were the Good Old Days" are each the epitome of the jazz and wit that propel "Yankees From the incompetence of the Senators against the Yankees to Lola and Applegate reveling in their efforts, the broad and frank humor disarmingly comes to light. "The Game" concerns the tempta- tions thought to deplete the ath- letic ability of ballplayers (women, wine, women, and, well, women) before their games. "GoodbyeOld Girl "A Man Doesn't Know" and "Near to You" encapsulate the re- lationship � the heart of the show � between Joe and his wife Meg before and after he becomes Joe Hardy. "Yankees" would be merely cute without its music and the 1994 soundtrack shows not only its necessity but its ge- nius. Speaking of the songs, the cast live up to the challenge of the difficulty of the music and the legend of its previous suc- cess. Most surprising is Bebe Neuwirth (Lilith Crane from "Cheers") as the divinely-devil- ish Lola. Strutting about the stage in a bustier and garters and cropped blonde wig (as evi- denced in the CD package), Neuwirth shows amazing talent in the various manners in which the part calls for her to sing her four songs. The juicy "Whatever Lola Wants (Lola Gets)" is a show stopper that Neuwirth sings with the lung power and wicked South American accent that calls to mind Ethel Merman and Rosie Perez. While she almost nails "A Little Brains, A Little Talent the overt northern wince she uses ("an eim-phasis" on the latter" and "Nome, Ahaska ouch. "Wince" is a carefully chosen word) keeps her from pulling it See YANKEES page 14 7 The East Carolinian June 22, 1994 Tins Week in Live Entertainment UJokiut Cr�k flmphfthsotr Thursday Beach Boys wAmerica Saturday Crosby, Stills & Nash Friday Mickey Mills & Steel Saturday Jack-O Peirce Tho rittic Wednesday Comedy Zone Thursday Everything Friday The Stegmonds Saturday Dillon Fence Splosh Thursday Scott Mueller Friday & Saturday The Bivans Brothers YANKEES Continued from page 6 off. But, this is a big step away from her previous acting role and she lets loose. As does the whole cast. Victor Gerber as Applegate and Jarrod Emick as Joe Hardy implicitly trust the roles and let go- It's all performed on a scale tailored for The Great White Way and it loses nothing on the record- ing. Damn Yankees is a pristine cast recording, supplanting any base- less notion that show tunes have to be bland and dry. Granted, you might not see Schwarzenegger belting out "Music of the Night" or "On My Own but works like this can only serve to increase the interest in musicals beyond those on the big screen. � Gregory Dickens KISS Continued from page 6 while still making it their own. Delivered with the Bosstones' char- acteristically rough skapunk edge, this track remains the pleas- ingly gruntable rock anthem it's always been, even with a horn sec- tion. I also liked the ten seconds of mosh-ready, hard-core beats laid down at the end. Also moshable is "Dr. Love by Shandi's Addiction. Made up of people from Rage Against the Machine, Tool, and Faith No More, Shandi's Addiction finds the evil punk rock core of this song and nasties it up. One of the problems with KISS in the studio was that they always cleaned things up too much. The grungy, loud, bass- heavy beats of Shandi's Addiction, however, solve this problem in grand style. At the other end of the grunge scale is Dinosaur Jr. with "Goin' Blind Delivered withallofDino- saur Jrs usual lack of energy, this COSTELLO hour. There were few numbers from their first album, but they did play "Superman" which ev- eryone really got into. Most of their songs were taken from their latest album God Shuffled His Feet, the title track being especially good. The highlight of their set was the top 40 hit "Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm a DJ's worst announcing night- mare but a damn good live song. Next up was Elvis Costello and the Attractions. It was a very simple stage set, not many frills, just a bust of Beethoven on one speaker, a stuffed parrot on the drumset and other fine details. With no introduction the band came out and jumped right into the first song. During one break between numbers, Costello pulled out a T-shirt depicting Ireland's national soccer team on it, muttered something about track manages to find the core of sad meaning in Gene Simmons' lyrics. For entirely different reasons, I also liked Lenny Kravitz on "Deuce With Stevie Wonder on harmonica, Kravitz delivers a funky, upbeat version of this KISS classic that reminds me of old Sly and the Family Stone tunes. "Deuce" is a nice cut that remains true to the original while still re- maining interesting. Slightly less interesting tracks include Anthrax on "She the Gin Blossoms with "Christine Sixteen the Lemonheads doing "Plaster Caster and, the worst of this bor- ing lot, Extreme's "Strutter These artists committed what to my mind is the greatest sin of cover tunes, and stuck too close to the originals in one way or the other. If I wanted to hear this kind of stuff, I'd pull out my copy of Double Platinum and listen to the real KISS do it. Boring as these tracks are, however, they're still somewhat enjoyable. The only real low point of Kiss My Ass is Garth Brooks' "Hard Luck WomanI'm not a huge Brooks fan as it is, and the emotionless quality hejbrings to this trackordy makes things worse. Though Brooks counts himself as a huge KISS fan from his teenage years, this track is really plastic, and a real disappointment Overall, Kiss My Ass is an in- teresting compilation. While the "legacy" of KISS mostly consists of songs about playing guitars and getting laid, this disc more than does that legacy justice. Whether you worship KISS or enjoy ridi- culing them at parties, mere's something here for everybody. ��Mark Brett Continued from page 6 how Italy's team was no good and jumped right into the next song. Mr. Costello had come to play. With very few pauses, and even fewer words, they played for a more than an hour. It may be worth noting that both Costello and his bassist were using vintage equipment as old Vox amplifiers were their choice. This old amplifier deal seems to be very popular in the current wave of alternative guitar bands these days; however Costello has probably known of their quality for a few years. They played many old favor- ites like "Watching the Detec- tives "Deep Dark Truthful Mir- ror and "Peace, Love and Un- derstanding About half of the tunes came from the last two al- bums, "Mighty Like A Rose" and "Brutal Youth which have pro- duced many lesser known tracks that are just as good as the old familiar ones. Costello and the Attractions came back for four encores, which is really unusual for any act, but the crowd was excep- tionally receptive. One of the better runes came in the next to last encore. "Allison" was played at an abnormally fast tempo and then about halfway through the song it mutated into a strange interpretation of Smokey Robinson's "Tears ot a Clown Costello's surprises gave everyone their money's worth. This fourth Earth Buddies was quite enjoyable for all in- volved. The Crash Test Dum- mies are some of the best of the new music out today and Elvis Costello iswell, Elvis Costello and that should be praise enough.

Everybody's heard by now, so I really don't need to re- cap the story. Simpson killed his family. But then, William Kennedy Smith raped the woman in West Palm Beach last year, as well. Wrong. Un- til he is proven guilty (c in- nocent, as in the Smith c?se), Simpson is still an innocent man, but if found guilty, his case will go down as one of the most publicized in mod- ern times. That will become a major problem in the case. Where are the courts going to find a jury that hasn't heard too much about the case, a jury that will be able to decide Simpson's fate without bias. It's going to be next to impossible. One thing is definitely clear, the sys- tem is trying to convict Simpson without a murder weapon, armed with only cir- cumstantial evidence. Look- ing tired and distraught, Simpson gave a "not guilty" plea to Municipal Judge Parti Jo McKay Monday morning. He's been under constant suicide watch since his cap- ture which began late Friday night and ended early Satur- day morning eastern time. The length of the case will be taxing on Simpson, and it could drag out over months, even years.

Winners (through Monday) of 10 straight games and 18 straight games at home, Cleveland has vaulted into first place in the American League's Central Division. It really comes as no surprise; the Tribe has a balanced mix of youngsters and veterans, good hitting and surprisingly great pitch- ing. Jack Morris has returned from the dead and won five straight since shaving off his trademark mustache, and Kenny Lofton (Cleveland's real-life Willie Mays Hayes) quietly leads the team with a .358 batting average and 33 steals. The pitching staff has allowed only 54 homers this season, fewest in the majors. They only have two players on the disabled list, and if they can keep plavers healthy, Cleveland could take the division, especially with a possible strike loom- ing ahead. This is tne stuff they make movies about, isn't it? � Darryl Strawberry has found a new home, and it's Candlestick Park. The Gi- ants, hoping to boost their sagging bats, signed the much-maligned outfielder to a contract for the remainder of the season. This could end up killing the Dodgers in the long run becausethey are barely playing .500 ball healthy, and the Giants are only 5.5 games back. Baker said that Strawberry is healthy and in good physi- cal shape, and should be playing by the All-Star Game. This will prove to be one of .the best signings made in recent times, along with the Reds' signing of Ron Gant. � Here's a quick little fill- See PpNDERINGS page 10 Disc golf is no ordinary sport By Brian Olson Sports Editor Normally, one of the best sounds in golf is the sound of "plump" as a ball drops into the cup. The best sound in Disc golf is the 'Cha-Ching' of the putter disc hitting the chains of the cage. Disc golf has become one of the most popular sports in Green- ville over the last few years. The course is located behind the ECU baseball and Softball fields on Charles St. and Greenville Blvd. If you have driven by these streets, you probably have seen many people playing this free sport. Disc golf is very similar to re� � 11 a r gol f. Everv hole on the 1R- hole course is a par three, where normal golf ranges from par threes to par fives. A variety of discs are used instead of clubs and balls. To finish a disc golf hole, the disc is thrown into a four-foot cage in- stead of putting a ball into a small hole. Also, disc golf is free com- pared to a round of golf, which usually costs between $10-$40. ECU has its own disc club, but currently it has only two mem- bers. Ben Deeter is head, and the other member is Lewis Hoffman. There are hundreds of disc players in Greenville, but the two-mem- ber club hopes to expand. Many people do not know of the club. Dues are only $8 per year and $5 per semester. "You don't have to be a pro- fessional at disc golf to be in the club Deeter said. "You just have to be willing to improve because the more you play, the more you improve The scores from golf and disc golf are also very different. Your average golf player will shoot from high 80's to low 100's, whereas in disc golf, you could shoot close to Currently, there are two new cages on the course and 1 coming weeks. The new cages will help the discs from par at 54. Pro golfers will shoot scores close and under par near mid-high 60's to low 70's. Ace disc golfers will shoot from three to 12 under par normally. "When I started a few years ago, I used to shoot about 12 over disc player Clifton Pike said. "But now, I usually shoot from three to eight under. I really enjoy the game, and it can be addicting. Italso gives me a chance to relax and have a good time Discs have different shapes to accommodate different shots. Regular golf uses clubs with dif- ferent lofts to hit the ball straightat different distances. Discs are simi- lar and can be broken down into three categories of drivers, approachers and putters. The drivers have a sharper edge and cango long distances at high speeds. They can go distances close to 100 yards. Approach discs have sort of a thicker lip that en- ables the disc to travel a little shorter or lower and go about 40- 70 yards. Putters are more domed with a softer plastic and travel at low speeds so they can hit the chains. Discs are also designed to travel straight, left and right. Since many of the holes are in woods, these discs that curve are very im- portant. They must travel around trees and and bushes en route to File photo 0 more will be added in the bouncing out of the chains. the hole, or cage. Discs have different emblems on them to signify what their pur- pose or brand is. A baracuda disc, for example, would be an approach disc that turns right in the air. Every Monday night, many players can be seen in the weekly tournament. It consists of about 30 players selected in a random draw, paired in doubles with an amateur and an ace. They play the best disc of the two, and the winner will usually shoot about 14 under par. There are prizes and different pools which makes it even more fun.

Hill comes to ECU from Southeast Missouri State Uni- versity, where he served as an assistant coach for two seasons. "Lew comes to ECU highly recommended said Pirate head coach Eddie Payne. "He made a very positive impres- sion on his visit to ECU. He has an excellent recruiting back- ground and has ties to areas that will be new for us Following graduation from Wichita State University in 1988, Hill played professional basketball in Germany for one season. He then began his coaching career at Wichita (Kan.) East High School where he was the junior varsity coach and the assistant varsity coach. Hill began his collegiate coaching career in 1990 as a part-time assistant coach at the University of South Alabama (USA) in Mobile, where he spent two seasons. From USA, Hill moved to Southeast Mis- souri State. The Mount Vemon, N.Y native was an all-state per- former at Mount Vemon High School, averaging 26 points per game as a senior. He was the starting point guard at San Jacinto (Texas) Junior College in 1984 when the Ravens won the JUCO national champion- ship. Hill went on to Wichita State, where he played for two seasons, earning All-Missouri Valley Conference honors as a senior.

"This is going to be a great year for us Bill Freelove, Tour- nament Chairman, said. "Even though its our tenth year, its a year of firsts. The tournament has grown in many ways One of the major accomplish- ments for this year is that the tour- nament has received its highest amount of celebrity commitments in its ten-year history. Fifty-five sports figures, television and movie stars have signed on as participants in the Classic. Stars such as Sugar Ray Leonard, Grant Hill, Spud Webb and Jason Priestly are new additions to this year's participant list. Past tour- nament participants who will re- turn this year include "Bone Crusher" Smith, Ed "Too Tall" Jones, and Charles Oakley. Freelove attributes are number of celebrities to past tournament suc- cess, and also to the fact that re- turning celebrities have helped to recruit more participants. "The ce- lebrities have a lot of fun, they remember the Greenville hospi- tality, and they come back the next year with their friends Freelove said. On Sunday, the Golf Classic begins with the first team teeing off at 7:00 a.m. at Brook Valley Country Club. In addition to a celebrity-filled golf tournament, there will also be children's ac- tivities, including an appearance by Ronald McDonald. And the Golfing Gorilla, famous for his amazing golfing abilities and an- tics, will be at the driving range from 3 to 4 p.m. Gallery tickets for the Classic may be purchased on the day of the tournament at the satellite parking facility located at Minges Coliseum. Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for children ages 6 through 12, and fee for children under six years of age. Buses to Brook Valley will leave Minges Coliseum every 10 minutes. All proceeds from the Michael Jordan Celebrity Golf Classic ben- efit the Ronald McDonald Houses of North Carolina. The Houses are private, not-for-profit organi- zation with locations in Green- ville, Chapel Hill, Durham and Winston-Salem. The Houses serve as a "home away from home" fro families of seriously ill children being treated at nearby hospitals. Game seven promises to be a war NEWEST BARS IN TOWN BAKERY, DESSERT BAR HOT & COLD FBDD 758-2712 Sunday-Thursday 11:00-9:30 Friday-Saturday 11:30-10:00 (AP) � Players and coaches try to pretend they don't think about losing when they are pre- paring for a big game. In the NBA, there is no big- ger game than Game 7 of the finals, a situation that will occur for the 15th time in league his- tory Wednesday night. Stay focused. Just play the game. Take advantage of the op- portunity. Have fun. That's what the Houston Rockets and New York Knicks were saying Monday. But sometimes, the fear of losing seeped into a conversa- tion, the knowledge that for some of them, Wednesday night will not end the way they hope. "There's either winning or there's misery Knicks coach Pat Riley said. "That's all there is. One of those two things Hakeem Olajun, noting that New York von VBA titles in 1970 and 1974 and that Hous- ton has never won a champion- ship, said the Rockets deserve one moreBut you don't always get what you deserve he said, almost mournfully. Rockets forward Robert Horry said he has thought often about what it would feel like to win a championship, then ad- mitted that losing has crossed his mind as well. "Hopefully, there will be tears of joy and not tears of sor- row Horry said. "You want to be happy, take the champagne bath and wake up in the morn- ing with a big smile on your face The Knicks were one big play away from taking that cham- pagne bath after Game 6 Sunday night when John Starks, after scoring 16 of New York's 22 points in the fourth quarter, took a 3-point shot in the final seconds of a two-point game. But Olajuwon got his fin- gertips on the shot, making it fall short and preserving an 86- 84 Houston victory. "I take every loss hard Starks said. "But you shake it off because there's another game Wednesday. Now we have 48 more minutes to put up or shut up. You dream about playing pressure games like this. I know I can step up and play big. But I'm not worried about it because I know I will The Knicks will be playing their third seventh game of the playoffs � only the Riley- coached Los Angeles Lakers played that many in 1988 � and Starks said the team should ben- efit from that. "The experience of playing Game 7s helps a lot, but the stakes are much higher now Starks said. "But it gives us con- fidence we can win Olajuwon, whose 27.2 scor- ing average in the Finals is 15 more than anyone else on the Rockets, said coach Rudy Tomjanovich told the team sev- eral times during the season that the teams was playing its big- gest game of the year. "This time we don't need him to tell us Olajuwon said. "We know it's the biggest game. But we have to keep it in per- spective. You can only do your best ; With neither team having scored 100 points in the series � an NBA Finals first � both realize that defense got them this far and that defense will win Game 7. "We expect to win Riley said. "We believed defense would give us this opportu- nity The Knicks are averaging just 87.3 points in the series, the Rockets 85.4. "You have to be a defen- sive team to get this far Tomjanovich said. "And you have to win on the road to get homecourt advantage.

A different set of Basketball challenges tested sharpshooters within the steamy afternoon of Christenbury Gym on Tuesday, June 14, as the Shooting Triathlon measured the marksmanship of players in Free Throws, Three Point Shooting and Hot Shots. The big winner was Garland Heggie, who captured the all-around title with a GOLF total of 79 points, won the Hot Shots third in Free Throws with 20 of 25. First-place finishes were also turned in by Eric Whaley in the Three Point shooting, and Brad Oldham and Lumuba Moore (tie) in Free Throws.

There are National Tourna- ments to get involved in for the highly competitve player. They are held all over the country, and this year's tournament will be in Lau- rel Springs, NC. in July.

It's great to be able to get up at 3 in the Continued from page 8 morning and see the Orlando Preda- tors take on the Charlotte Rage on artificial turf. First of all, arena ball is very high scoring. The scores re- semble high school basketball scores, so there is never a dull mo- ment. The field is shorter and sur- rounded by a concrete wall on the sidelines. Also, nethng is placed behind the goalline, and field goals and extra points must be kicked through a hole in the netting. If not, then the player plays the ball off the net and become a splatter-mark on the concrete wall, much to the de- light of drunken fans. What more can viewers ask for?
