Tailgating option offered to students
By Stephanie Lassiter
News Editor
The hot, humid days of
summer are long gone, and
the cool days of the pigskin
are here. As ECU students gear
up for afternoons filled with
tailgating and socializing with
friends, the athletics depart-
ment is planning how students
can more conveniently enjoy
Pirate football at its best.
Upperclass students may
remember the anxiety of get-
ting to the stadium gates only
to stand in line to be pushed
through the turnstile, and then
to stand in line again to await
entrance into the stands. In
order to better serve the stu-
dents, the athletics depart-
ment has added a new gate
designated for students only.
The gate, which will be lo-
cated beneath the student sec-
tion of the stadium on the north
side, has 10 slots which students
will enter through. The gate pre-
viously used for student en-
trance has been permanently
closed due to construction on
Minges Coliseum.
Construction is not the
only hurdle that the athletics
department has had to jump.
Parking spaces previously lo-
cated at Allied Health are now
used for freshmen parking,
therefore limiting parking for
football fans and tailgaters. Lee
Workman, assistant athletic di-
rector for ticket sales and pro-
motion, is hoping students will
park at the bottom of College
Hill. Workman says that this
area will be more accessible for
students because it is closer to
the student gates and also to the
core campus.
"We have lost a lot of park-
ing spaces out by Charles Bou-
levard Workman said. "We
are encouraging students to
park at the bottom of College
Hill
Workman believes this
will be very convenient. Stu-
dents who can simply walk up
the Hill, across 14th Street
(which will be partly closed off
on game day), across the intra-
mural field?directly to the new
student gate.
All gates to Dowdy-
Ficklen Stadium will open one
and a half hours before kick-off.
All bags will be inspected at
gate entrance for alcoholic bev-
erages.
Some students may feel
that this is a simple solution to
exclude students from tailgat-
ing with other fans, as well as to
keep the students out of sight,
but Workman says that was not
the intention of the committee
who came up with the idea.
"We are trying to spread
people out to make it easier for
parking he said. "That seemed
like the logical move
Parking will still be avail-
able on the Frisbee-golf field, in
the Allied Health paved park-
ing lot and in some of the field
designated for freshmen park-
ing. Any spaces in the freshmen
lot not taken can be used for
football parking.
After the much publicized
fight which occurred during the
televised game against Syracuse
last year, group seating was re-
voked. Student groups of 25 or
more students were allowed to
pick up blocks of tickets within
the same section, but the seat-
ing areas were not reserved.
Again this year, groups can pick
up blocks of tickets, but seats
will not be reserved. Students
interested in group seating can
call 328-4500 for more informa-
tion.
"We will have group seat-
ing the way we did last year
after the Syracuse game Work-
man said.
Group tickets will be avail-
able on Mondays prior to Satur-
day games. Individual tickets
can be picked up on Tuesdays,
Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Students tickets will be issued
on a first-come, first-serve ba-
sis. Students will have the op-
tion to purchase half-price
tickets for guests while they
last. The guest tickets can only
be bought between 8 a.m. and
5 p.m. at the Athletic Ticket
Office, temporarily located on
the south side of Dowdy-
Ficklen Stadium, adjacent to
the Press Box. Students tick-
ets will also be available at
Mendenhall from 11 a.m. un-
til 6 p.m. No half-price tickets
will be sold at Mendenhall.
Workman said students
will be required to sit in the
sections designated on their
tickets. This year, a new pro-
fessional usher staff has been
hired to help control seating.

Student safety and con-
venience are the main reasons
for the construction in front of
Christenbury, said Dr. George
Harrell, assistant vice chancel-
lor for facilities.
"This is a student-benefit-
ing project Harrell said.
Harrell said by the end of
the year, there will be a fully
functioning stoplight intersec-
tion in the area in front of
Brewster on 10th Street.
Currently, cars can only
make a right turn from
Christenbury onto 10th Street,
but with the addition of the
new intersection, cars will be
able to make both right and
left turns.
Harrell said the univer-
sity wanted the intersection to
enable student buses to loop
back to College Hill Drive with-
out the hindrance of having to
make a right turn, then turning
back towards College Hill. Also,
he said the intersection will aid
students who cross 10th Street
to reach campus.
"It allows the student tran-
sit system to operate more effec-
tively and allows a pedestrian
crossing area, which improves
the safety for the students cross-
ing 10th Street Harrell said.
He said there is a plan to tie
the pedestrian bridge over Green
Mill Run to the new intersec-
tion.
The gravel in front of
Christenbury will be replaced
by pavement when the Lanier
Construction Company of Snow
Hill, N.C paves the area this
weekend.
The next step in develop-
ing the intersection will be re-
ceiving the traffic light.
Russian students explore
Harrell said the traffic
light was on order and took a
long time to be delivered be-
cause the manufacturer custom
makes each traffic light.
"We expect the light to be
up by the first of the year he
said.
Since 10th Street is a state
road, the construction is being
managed by the N.C. Depart-
ment of Transportation, not Fa-
cility Services. The department
is doing the project to improve
10th Street.
Until the intersection is
completed, Harrell asks that stu-
dents cross 10th Street with care.
"I would like to remind
the students to be careful cross-
ing 10th Street during construc-
tion and until the light is up he
said. "They should use College
Hill Drive intersection until the
other light is in, for their own
safety'

Biology students explore Canadian waters

Bill Tarplee and Lee
By Jeb Brookshire
Staff Writer
When a group of
ECU biologists traveled
to Nova Scotia last May
to study the striped bass
population in the
Stewiacke River, they got
more than they bar-
gained for. The biologists
endured freezing tem-
peratures, cold rains and
a river whose water level
increased by as much as
12 feet every six hours.
The research team
consisted of two gradu-
ate students, Kitty Tull and
Lee Paramore and under-
graduate student Bill
Tarplee. They were led by
Dr. Roger Rulifson, an ECU
biologist. Their goal was to
study different aspects of
the striped bass population
in the Stewiacke River.
Kitty Tull went to
gather data for her thesis,
which focused on the effects
of the salinity on the striped
bass which is a predomi-
nately fresh water fish. This
was important because the
Stewiacke River is a tidal
bore river which means that
the tides from the Atlantic
Ocean affect not only the
water level, but the salinity
of the water as well.
The other graduate
student, Lee Paramore,
looked at the fish them-
selves and their physical
characteristics such as
weight, length and their
scales. One of the most im-
portant parts of Paramore's
study was looking at the
fish's otoliths. Otoliths are
bones near the fish's inner
ear. The biologists looked

Career Day kicks off
By Stephanie Lassiter
News Editor
The semester may have just
begun, but it is time to start looking
for the perfect career and the per-
fect employer. To help students in
this quest, Career Services and the
School of Business are sponsoring
the Business Career Day on Tues-
day, Sept. 20.
"The career day is designed
for students to meet employers and
exchange information said
Margie Swartout, assistant direc-
tor of Career Services.
The event, which is prima-
rily designed for juniors and se-
niors, is open to any student inter-
ested in working in a business
environment.
"Business Career Day
gives students a chance to net-
work and get acquainted with
employers who are coming from
a variety of environments
Swartout said.
Career Day willbe attended
by some 60 employers represent-
ing banking institutions, retail
organizations, accounting firms,
manufacturing firms, insurance
agencies and federal government
agencies.
Employers will be available

Yale scientist contracts rare virus and exposes many after lab
accident
A Yale scientist was experimenting with tissue contami-
nated with a deadly tropical virus, Sabia. The Sabia virus comes from
Brazil, where it is believed to be carried by rodents. Symptoms
include high fever, internal bleeding and shock. After time, organs
begin to decompose and the victim bleeds from every orifice of the
body, including eyes, ears and pores of the skin. The scientist failed
to report the incident to Yale officials, breaking federal and school
policy. Although he did not realize it for a week, he had exposed five
people, including two children, before seeking medical attention for
a 103 degree fever. An experimental antiviral drug eventually stopped
the illness, but not before the scientist came in contact with 75 other
people.
Lawsuit filed against fake psychiatrist
Lee H. Shoemate's name has become synonymous with
trouble in the past few years in the UNC hospital's community. No
one in the area has seen or heard from the man since he resigned in
1990 after officials discovered he had falsified credentials by saying
he was a certified doctor. Last month new charges came up against
Shoemate. Rebecca Dunkley has accused Shoemate of abusing his
power by manipulating his patient into having forced sex with him
while he posed as a psychiatrist for almost a year in the late '80s. She
is also accusing him of having threatened to commit her involun-
tarily to a psychiatric hospital if she told anyone.
Geology student stumbles across dinosaur
Heather English, a student at Modesto Junior College in
California, usually spends her time looking for minerals and rocks,
not bones. When she stumbled across a jawbone while on a dig in
Montana this summer, her instincts told her she had found some-
thing big. English had unearthed a Tenontosaurus, a large plant-
eating dinosaur. The area, near Yellowstone park, is thought to be
dinosaur rich.

Working full-time and being
a parent or caring for an adult
family member creates day-to-day
challenges for many ECU faculty
and staff members. Recently, a
Family Care Survey has been cir-
culated to ECU faculty and staff in
an attempt to meet these chal-
lenges.
The Family Care Survey
came abou t through a request from
the Chancellor to assess the needs
for dependent care facilities for
ECU faculty and staff members.
The survey was put together by a
subcommittee of the Committee
on the Status of Women, accord-
ing to Dr. Barbara Lyons-Hines,
chairperson of the Committee on
the Statusof Women. Lvons-Hines
said that the purpose of the Fam-
ily Care Survey is "to gather basic
information regarding what the
needs of employees on campus
are in relation to dependent care
Survey results will be used
to plan for the future of depen-
dent-care facilities for ECU fac-
ulty and staff and their families.
"We don't have any solu-
tions right now, but we realize the
importance of the issue of depen-
dent care as it relates to employee
productivity and satisfaction on
the job said Lyons-Hines.
The survey consists of four
sections designed to gather spe-
cific information and a final sec-
tion which allows respondents to
make comments about the survey.

Grants to
aid women
By Andy Turner
Staff Writer
A grant given to the ECU
School of Medicine by the Kate B.
Reynolds Foundation has pro-
vided funds for outreach clinics to
screen post-menopausal women
for osteoporosis.
Osteoporosis causes low
bone mass and deterioration of
bone tissue. As a result of the thin-
ning of the bones, bones are more
susceptible to hip, wrist and spine
fractures.
Women are at a greater risk
than men of developing
osteoporosis. This is due to the
decrease of the production of the
female sex hormone estrogen,
which protects against the dete-
rioration of bones.
In the case of loss of estrogen
in post-menopausal women, es-

Moyewood center to open
By Tully Beatty
Staff Writer
The Greenville Housing
Authority will celebrate the
grand opening of the Moyewood
Community Center, on Sept. 30.
The center, under the direction
of Michael Best and Zina Boyd,
will be serving not only the
Moyewood district, but also
seven other public housing com-
munities as well.
"The center is essentially
an all-purpose cultural, educa-
tional and alternative recreation
center that will cater to the needs
of the community Best said.
Movewood will provide
services for both the young and
the elderlv. Social activities'will
be arranged for senior citizens in
the afternoons. A full-length bas-
ketball court, play ground equip-
ment, pool table, Pingpong table,
video games and a safe haven
room that will serve as a TV
lounge area will be provided for
the voungsters.
"Just meeting the needs of
the communitv' will be the biggest
reward Best said.
Educational and economic
services will also be provided.
There will be a multi purpose room
featuring computer learning and
skills. A program promoting self-
employment through "home-ec"
classes is also being arranged.
Members will be encouraged
to develop culinary skills and gain
employment through catering and
other means.
Boy scouts, girl scouts, cub
scouts and 4-H groups will also
benefit from the center.
Some people may have mis-
conceptions about a community
center being built in the
Movewood district. Why place a
center in an area that has a history
of drug problems and general
crime?
Best stated that until two or
three years ago, that would have
been a legitimate response. The
area has changed a great deal since
then and Best and Boyd have re-
ceived nothing but enthusiasm
and support from the community.
Best hopes that the opening of the
community center will help dis-
pel the rumors

facultv and staff members such as
how long they have worked for
the university, their ethnic group,
their family income and whether
or not they have children or adult
family members who are depen-
dent upon them for care.
Section Two asks respon-
dents to rate the family care ser-
vices that are important to them
on a scale of I to 5, with 1 being
Very Important and 5 being Least
Important. Some of the services it
considers are child day care,
afterschool care, and adult day
care.
Section Three addresses only
families with children under 15
years of age and assesses their
needs regarding the type of care
families use now, how much they
spend and can afford to spend on
child care and what difficulties
families face in arranging for child
care.
Section Four gathers infor-
mation to assess the needs of fami-
lies who have elderly relatives in
their care.
At the present time, ECU
does not provide dependent care
services for families of faculty and
staff members. According to
Lyons-Hines, about the closest
thing to dependent care services
that ECU does have is the Child
Development Center through the
School of Human Environmental
Sciences. The Center provides a
pre-school for education, training
and research. The facilities are lim-
ited , however. The Center has very
limited space and is not readily-
able to handle the needs of the
entire ECU faculty and staff.
Lyons-Hines said that she
was encouraged by the number of
responses to the survey that have
been received so far, and she en-
courages faculty and staff to fill
out the survey and return it. Com-
pleted surveys can be sent by cam-
pus mail to: ?

The Army's HUMVEE utility vehicle was on display outside of The Student Stores
last month. The purpose of the display was to recruit students for Army ROTC.
The craft, which was provided by the 514th MP Co. in Greenville, has the 4-
wheel abilities to negotiate in adverse weather conditions such as mudslides
and snow. The craft was instrumental in the victory over Iraq in 1990-91.

Changes for gameday may be beneficial
People usually dislike change. We get
comfortable doing things a certain way.
At any suggestion of changing our ways,
the first instinct is to dig in our heels and
fight back.
However, it doesn't have to be this
way. Change can be good, even healthy.
In this spirit of keeping an open mind
and trying new things, let's consider the
new program for attending football games.
First, due to all the needed construction
at Minges Coliseum, students will now
enter through new gates at the north end
of Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium. No problem
here. Surely no one was really attached to
enter the stadium any particular way.
Second, because of the loss of parking
due to construction, the administration is
now encouraging students to park and
tailgate at the bottom of College Hill
instead of out by Charles Boulevard. This
actually fits in well with the first change.
It's only a short walk from College Hill to
the stadium. Moreover, if one is coming
this way, then the new gates are in the
most convenient place.
Sure, this change seems the most
drastic. It may seem as if the
administration is just trying to shunt us
off out of the way (and out of sight).
However, compromises are going to have
to be made. We want all the benefits the
new construction is going to bring to our
school. If we can live with the parking
situation on campus this year, then surely
we can live with this.
Third, group seating will be
continuing through the plan
implemented last year after the Syracuse
game. Groups of 25 or more will still be
able to get tickets on Mondays of game
weeks. Tickets will still be in the same
section. However, unlike previous
years, seats will not be reserved. Again,
not a big problem. It seemed to work
fairly well last year, why not try it again?
Last, professional ushers have been
hired to help control seating. From now
on, fans must sit in their assigned
section. Sure, it may seem like junior
high all over again, but if it will help to
alleviate tensions on Saturday
afternoons, then it will be a great idea.
Overall these changes seem to be
good ideas. It may be that they will not
work out as planned. However, we
should be willing to give them a decent
chance before we reject them.
Whatever we do, let's not allow these
new rules or anything else stop us from
getting out and supporting our Pirates.
This year began with bright hopes
and the team showed signs against Duke
of fulfilling all our expectations.
Moreover, since the first home game
will be against Syracuse, let's bury all
those bad memories of fan misbehavior
from last year's game. Let's show The
News & Observer, and everyone else,
that not only do we know how to have a
good time, but that we also have the
- classiest fans.
Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
As a proud graduate of ECU and long time
member of the Pirate Club, I was disgusted with the
"Reputation of rowdiness article that appeared in
The News & Observer last Saturday.
There are primarily two reasons for my disgust.
First, the writer after stating that "they (ECU) are not
the only ones who get rowdy goes on to trash our
great university throughout rheentire article. Second,
and most depressing, five current ECU students
were duped into becoming willing accomplices.
Maybe these five loose cannons are just naive or
immature or both. They were certainly not perceptive
enough to know they were being used ? set up by a
rookie intern writer, who just happens to currently
attend another university located in Chapel Hill.
Their ill-advised, insipid, boneheaded comments
enabled the writer to accomplish his objective. And
that is to perpetuate the myth that East Carolina
University is merely a "party school" attended by a
bunch of un-motivated, mediocre students that could
not get into Carolina.
I, for one, resent the implication. Nothing in this
article says what ECU is really all about. Too many
have worked too hard for too long for this to be the
epitaph at ECU.
Students, take this advice form somebody old
enough to be your daddy. You, and you alone, must
decide how you want to be perceived. Do not let
your competition do it for you. Once you leave ECU
and enter the cruel world, you will compete for a job
head to head with graduates from State, Carolina,
Wake Forest, Duke and other good colleges and
universities.
It is said mat actions speak louder than words.
Unfortunately, thewordsspokenby the "brain-dead
five" have harmed the students, faculty,
administration, alumni and friends of this great
university. It is time now for responsible students
who really care about East Carolina University and
their won personal future to take control and set the
record straight.

Unneeded pressures imposed by clocks
By Patrick Hinson
I saw a special on television
the other night (it mu st have been
National Geographic or
something) that focused on the
natives who live in the Amazon
rain forest. A reporter was asking
one of them if he had ever seen a
wristwatch and if he knew what
its purpose was. The jungle man
only smiled and looked at the
reporter's watch and shook his
head, not ?
knowing what
in the world
this alien object
was.
The
reporter asked
thenativehow
his people
figured the
time out in the
jungle, where

Our watches
and our clocks

beginning to
the very end.
get used to eating monkey.
If only I could sling off this
damned wristwatch of mine and
dash out into the wild, screaming
like a banshee and trailing articles
of clothing behind me as I go. I
would skip into the jungle, a free
man at last.
Think for a minute about
what the wristwatch represents:
a prison of sorts. Our watches
? ard clocks
rule our
lives, from
the very
beginning to
the very end.
You

trees overhead makes it nearly
impossible to see the sun. The
native smiled again and said that
was easy. They just watched for
the slant of the sun's rays coming
in through the rain forest's ceiling
of trees, and judged the time of
day by the degree of the light's
slant. ?
Watching this, I could not
help but sit there and wish I was
that guy, an innocent native
bushman. I wish I could live my
life in that manner. It probably
would not be all that bad to run
around the jungle naked every
day, just as long as those huge
mosquitoes used a little common
courtesy when choosing landing
sites. I could shoot blow darts
and climb trees, go to those big
village cocoa parties and dodge
bulldozers. I could probably even
one, because someone will be
scheduled to ship out ahead of
you.
Every day of my life is lived
by the clock, by the hour, by the
minute. At this very minute, as a
matter of fact, I am typing like a
madman to make deadline on this
article, and that is just one of the
many things I will need to do
today, this week, this month, this
year.
You're probably reading this
(if anyone actually is!) on your
break. You probably have a
hundred things to do today
yourself. Don't be late! (Don't you
hate when you come into a class
late and everybody looks up at
you? "Leper! Death to you, late
one) Even when we have fun
we are on the clock. We have got
to do it on certain nights and in a
certain amount of time. You get
the point.
Take away my wristwatch
and I had be reduced to a mental
waffle in less than two hours. I
am one of those people who never
hasanything completely together,
and although I suppose I am
ashamed of that, I probably
should not be. It is my own little
form of protest in this "repressive
society" of ours. Even at my best,
I am always a little behind
schedule (bu 11 will probably skip
that little rid -bi t of information at
job interviews). I will probably
die ten years too early because of
it.
I know, I know, we are all the
same. You all sit up late into the
night typing those dreaded
papers, just hating yourself from
the pits of hell for waiting until
the last minute. But do not forget
that lights are burning all over
this campus. We are all the same,
ruled by the clock, yet doing our
natural best (and maybeitissome
sort of primeval, subconscious
reaction) to protest being ruled
by that never-ending ticker of life.
I give two thumbs up to that
little brown bushman. He will
have to live my dream for me, I
guess. I am destined for a job
somewhere out there in (yeah, I
hate to say it) the real world, some
day. Still, if for no other reason
(although there are countless
others), we should leave the rain
forests alone because there
actually are people like that out
there living in them, people who
do not even know what a
wristwatch is, or what it is for,
and could givea damn either way.
Monkey, anyone?
To the Editor:
I was very disappointed to read Steve Politi's
editorialization which the Raleigh News & Observer
attempted to pass as legitimate journalism in the
Saturday, Sept. 10, 1994, sports section. What was
proported to be a sports related article on the Duke v.
ECU football game evolved into a nearly one-half
page biting piece, full of half-truths and innuendo,
on the impertinent nature of the ECU community.
As a professional, it isdifficult enough tohaveto
defend ECU at every turn. Whenever I must travel on
business, I frequently engage in dialogue such as,
"So, you're getting your MBA at ECU, I'll bet you
never have time to study with all that partying you
do down there Or, "ECU! What are you doin
gettin' a Masters degree in beer drinkin' and girl
chasin'?" Or. "Hey everybody, we got us an ECU
graduate, whoowee, now we can really party with a
professional But the comment that I have yet to
devise a polite retort for, "I always thought you'd be
smart enough to go to Carolina! How come you're
going to ECU?"
When quotations by ECU students such as those
printed in The News & Observer, are read across the
state, it only reinforces the undeserved reputation
hanging onECUlikeaballand chain. I takeo task the
fraternity president who allegedly state, "We don;t
have a great reputation for academics. We have to be
proud of something Later,this same student
reportedly referred to a fist fight in the stands at
Ficklen Stadium last year as "pretty cool Such
comments are the fodder that fuels the anti-ECU
press in North Carolina. It is going to take many
press releases about research at the School of
Medicine, grants received by faculty, successful sports
programs and distinguished alumni toovercome the
bad press generated by those quoted in the N&O.
As for Mr. Politi, I would encourage him to get
lus facts straight in the future. Yes, on Sept. 5,1987,
some ECU fans did swarm the field at N C State's
Carter-Finley Stadium. I know, because I was there.
I also saw an awful lot of N.C State students, and
fans of undistinguishable allegiance on the field that
rainy night in Raleigh. Rain so hard that it stung your
eyes at times as you tried to watch the night game
under the mercury lights. I remember one of the
well-mannered N.C. State fan's shout to a group of
us, "Go back to Greenville you bunch of rednecks
When the mayhem started, everyone poured onto
that field. Mr. Politi would like folks to believe that
NCSU fans sat politely in their seats as a bunch of
beer crazed yahoos did irreparable damage to state
property. I would be willing to guess that the Rolling
Stones did more damage last week than ECU fans
did seven years ago.
And, Mr. Politi, if you are going to quote a source
have the courtesy to spell their name correctly.
Repeated ly, Dean of Students Dr. Ronald Speier was
referred to as Donald Spear. Dr. Speier was cast as
some sort of Dean Vernon Wormer, snooping around
fraternity parties and placing them on "double-
secret probation, compounding the image of
Greenville as a town where every spring the trees are
filled with toilet paper, and every Halloween the
toilets explode.
ECU has a great deal to be proud of and I hope that
one day, as I am writing my credentials for a
professionafconference, someone will happen to be
impressed with the fact that I am an ECU graduate.

To the Editor:
I am sick of constantly having to defend the
reputation of this school. This past summer I was
talking with someone who attends UNC. When I told
her that I attend ECU, she laughed and said ECU was
a joke.
I feel I can hold my own with anyone from any
their school in the state, but my accomplishments
probably won'tbetakenasseriouslybecauselattended
a "party school Therefore, it sickens me when
studentsdo things toperpetuateECU'sbad reputation.
Whether you like it or not, we are under a
microscope at this university. Guys like Steve Politi of
The News & Observer are just waiting for something
negative to happen so they can dump on ECU and
laugh with their buddies who went to Carolina or
Duke. So remember, everywhere you go you are
representing East Carolina.
Reporters aren't going to write about the School
of Education being voted 1 in the country, or the
School of Medicine being 1 in primary care. They are
going to write about students getting drunk and
fighting at football games.
I've always felt that there are plenty of intelligent
people at ECU, and you can leam just as much here as
you can anywhere else. But unfortunately, a lot of
people don't feel that way. And students who get in
fights at football gamesand make ignorant statements
to news reporters don't help the situation.

Comic books minus spandex
Superman and Spider- Man joined by the likes of Cerebus and Buddy Bradley
By Mark Brett
Artwork Courtesy of DC Comics
Shade the Changing Man experiences surreal pain,
courtesy of the vicious passions of mature comics.
Lifestyle Editor
Remember comic books? Sure
you do. Superman battling Lex
Luthor for the safety of Metropo-
lis? Spider-Man duking it out with
Doctor Octopus, while Aunt May
lies at death's door? Archie,
Jughead, and Veronica? The Fan-
tastic Four? Shazam? Mr.
Mxyzptlk?
Well, forget all that. Sure, all
those childhood favorites are still
out there; the days of sleek muscle-
men wrapped in spandex fanta-
sies are far from over. But that's not
whatwe'retalkingabouthere. No,
there's a new breed of comic book
that has little to do with super-
heroes and their bombastic world.
. These are comics for a more
mature audience. After a few false
starts over the last decade, this
"adult" comics movement seems
to have finally taken hold. A vari-
ety of titles are currently being
published that appeal to people
other than the traditional super-
hero reader.
"I've seen an increase in read-
ers outside my regular customers
said Eddie Sutton, manager of He-
roes Are Here Too, a local comics
specialty shop. "It's not a huge
increase, but I definitely have
people who come in here just to get
mature readers stuff
"The mature titles have defi-
nitely brought people in who
wouldn't normally read comics
said Charles Lawrence, manager
of the Nostalgia Newsstand. Both
men expressed enthusiasm for the
mature comics movement.
The following is a sampling of
titles currently available to inter-
ested readers.
Sandman, written NeilGaiman
and drawn by a various artists.
This title is the most popular, and
arguably the best, of the mature
comics. Now in its sixth year of
publication, Sandman is about
Morpheus, the master of dreams,
and the people whose lives he af-
fects. Or, perhaps most accurately,
it's about mankind and the death
of myth. And the title character
looks like an emaciated version of
Cure singer Robert Smith!
Cerebus, by Dave Sim and
Gerhard. Started in 1977 as a Conan
parody, Cerebus has since become
a study of human relationships.
Politics, economics, love, religion,
and sex roles have all come under
close scrutiny in the pages of

Fretblanket
Junkfuel
i
England's New Music Express
said Fretblanket's "Twisted" (their
first single) was the perfect pop
song. "It sends shivers down my
spine. I wanna hear that again and
then steal the tape said one re-
viewer. I'm afraid I will have to
disagree. Yes, it does send shivers
down my spine because it is the
perfect pop song; however, shivers
are not always a good sign. In this
case, it is an indication of the sheer
mediocrity of this perfect pop song.
In 1991, the foursome that
makes up Fretblanket began creat-
ing their brand of guitar-driven
rock. Soon after their conception
they released two four-song EP's to
rave reviews by the British press,
who christened them as a new
movement of home grown guitar
combos. 1994 has seen the release
of their first full length album,
junkfuel, on Polygram records.
Their sound is reminiscent of
Social Distortion's recent releac s,
minus the gut-felt and truly gritty
noise that S.D. is known for.
Fretblanket has jumped on the
power chord bandwagon, but they
just don't cut it. In comparison to
the angst-ridden and anger-driven
rock that's coming out of the good
old USA these days, these guys
sound watered down. Maybe if
they came and lived over here for a
while they could gain enough frus-
tration to reach the levels they as-
pire to.
Their first single, "Twisted
has the standard pop subject mat-
ter of taking off your clothes and
being free. Free from what, innova-
tion? The song is painfully predict-
able in sound and structure. I'm
trying to be nice, but each song
contains the same predictability.
"Junkfuelled the title track, is
no exception to this. Almost every
song follows the same pattern and
tempo, so just commenting on one
song is a blanket statement about
the whole album. I'm not just say-
ing this to save myself some writ-
ing, this band is simply that boring.
If the day should come that
you are feeling very run-of-the-
mill this may be the album to pick
up. It may help you identify with
someone. They may have stirred
up some interest in their home-
land, but then again you can't be-
lieve everything you read on the
record company'sbiography sheet.
After all, they are trying to pro-
mote the band. Did I mention that
they were bland?

Maori artist comes to ECU
By Daniel Willis
Staff Writer
Contemporary Maori artist
Darcy Nicholas from New
Zealand is visiting the ECU cam-
pus the week of Sept. 14-20. He
will present a slide lecture en-
titled "From the Tribal identity to
Global Expression" on Sept. 15 at
7:00 in the Mendenhall Great
Room.
Nicholas's artwork will also
be on display in the Mendenhall
Gallery Sept. 17-24. The exhibit
wil) include paintings, bone carv-
ings, wooden masks and selected
passages.
Maori looks to his direct
background for inspiration with
his artwork.
"My paintings are about iden-
tity, the ancestral lines that con-
nect me with the universe
Nicholas said. "The faces in my
paintings are a reminder of the
great spiritual strength that made
us warriors of the land and the
sea
Nicholas, born in 1945, was
raised in Taranaki, New Zealand,
a tightly-knit Maori tribal com-
munity. A great deal of
Nicholas's influence came from
his mother.
"My mother seemed to have
so much inner strength and dig-
nity that she reminded me of
hills and mountains he said. "I
have seen this same quality
amongst many of our older Maori
women on tribal maraes
In 1974, Nicholas moved to
Australia for a short period of
time. He said this was the time
when he realized the value of his
Maori culture.
"When I lived briefly in Aus-
tralia I began to fully understand
the personal bond that I had with
my own country Nicholas said.
"I was so desperately homesick
Later that year, he returned
to New Zealand to paint full time
and open a gallery in the Lower
Hutt.
In 1981,Nicholasbecamedi-
rector of the Wellington Arts
Centre. He received a Fulbright
Scholarship to observe contem-
Cerebus, an amazing feat when you
consider that the title character is a
four-foot-tall talking aardvark.
Shade, the Changing Man, by
Pete Milligan and Chris Bachalo.
Based on a character created in the
'70s by Steve Ditko (who also cre-
ated Spider-Man), this modem ver-
sion of Shade is a surreal reading
experience. In this book's four-year
run, Shade has had three different
bodies (one female) and at least
two personalities.
The centerpiece of the series,
however, is the bisexual love tri-
angle that Milligan is continually
developing between Shade, his
girlfriend Kathy and her girlfriend
Lenny. This relationship contin-
ues, despite the fact that Kathy
died in a recent issue.
Eightball, by Dan Clowes. Not
for the meek! Eightball is a darkly
cynical look at American society
through the eyes of Clowes, the
man who hates everybody! At
turns ridiculous, surreal and dis-
turbing, Eightball is always funny.
It helps to be in a bad mood when
you read it, however; this is vi-
cious stuff.
The Maxx, by Sam Keith and
William Messner-Loebs.TieMa.v.t
is that rarest of things, a thought-
porary Native American and Af-
rican American art in the United
States.
People may forget their past,
but Nicholas tries to discourage
this notion.
In an interview with the
Wellington Central Regional Arts
Centre, Nicholas said: "We're all
Ii v ing ancestors.
"I'm an ancestor, ancestors
who are now part of the land
have made me what I am.
"So everything you are today
is what has been handed down
from your ancestors
Nicholas has a deep admira-
tion for his Maori culture, but he is
well aware of his people's short-
comings.
"My paintings scare many of
our people he said. "I think it's
because they have forgotten what
many of our traditional carvings
are all about.
"They forgot that nothing
dies in the Maori world. Things
merely move through different
dimensions
provoking, well-written super-
hero comic. Featuring imagina-
tive artwork and discussions of
feminist social theory, The Maxx
is the story of a homeless eccen-
tric (our hero), his social worker
and a sorcererserial rapist
named Mr. Gone. It's Dr. Suess
on steroids! It's Freud on Pez! It's
going to be a "Liquid Television"
cartoon, and it's just really hard
to explain.
Hate,by Peter Bagge. Featur-
ing perhaps the most distinctive
art in comics today, Hate is the
story of Buddy Bradley: beer-
guzzling, flannel-wearing,
twenty-something misanthrope
from Seattle. It's also possibly
the most accurate portrayal of
"Generation X" yet seen in any
medium (that's notsaying much,
I realize, but this one's good!
Trust me!).
Only a handful of what's
available has been listed here,
but it's a good starting point.
Most retailers are more than
happy to point new readers in
the right direction, however, so
be willing to ask questions. Plow-
ing through the super-hero stuff
is difficult at first, but usually
worth the effort.
Music to breed by
By Julie Totten
Staff Writer
Friday night the boys of
Breed 13 took center stage at
CRockefeller's's. A local favor-
ite for a couple of years now,
Breed 13 pleased their fans at
this, their first show of the new
semester.
Charlie's on Acid, a
Wilmington-based group,
opened the show at around
11:45 p.m. Their sound was
abrasive and definitely not for
the meek. While they were play-
ing, people filed in and seemed
to be impressed with Breed 13's
predecessor. Many were pleas-
antly surprised with the
Charlie's on Acid set, especially
considering how much their
sound clashed with the head-
liners many of them turned out
to see.
At 12:45 p.m those head-
liners took the stage and the
crowd was treated to a poetic
version of "One Last Cross-
over Brad Rice, singer and
primary song writer for Breed
13, began by reading a poem
that led into a distinctly dreamy-
jam. The tune drifted on, and
the energy level in the club con-
tinued to rise.
The highlight of the evening
was "Wakefield Blue a new
song in the Breed 13 reper-
toire. "Every time we play it,
it's different said Rice. "The
song is about isolation that
changes and is dependent on
our moods
Clay Kent, drums, is a vi-
tal and very impressive part
of the ensemble. His "ear"
seems to lead the band
through difficult transitions
and melody shifts.
Jason Nunn, lead guitar,
andLeeHylton,bass,have their
share of moments too. Their
skills have sharpened tremen-
dously in the past year and add
aprecisiontotheband'ssound.
Breed 13 closed their set
with an oldie, "Dreams of a
Semi-Permeable Slug A fa-
miliar tune to all Breed 13 fans,
this one was a real crowd-
pleaser.
This week, the band will
be heading into the studio to
record a new seven inch ep
which is scheduled to be re-
leased in late October.
As for other future plans
for Breed 13?who knows?
They have three qualities that
could send them on the road
to success: talent, charisma,
and, most important of all,
good performances.

Hodgson has developed a proposed

Hodgson, 34, was replaced as

Player of the Week
By A. Wilson
Staff Writer
Ia)ienzoWestisk?kingfbrbig-
ger and better things in 1994 West,
a 6-3, 245 pounder from Atlanta,
Ga's Decatur HS is used to success,
and that is why last season's 2-9
record and his total of 18 tackles
were so disappointing to him.
In high school, West was
Atlanta's defensive MVP and was
selected to the All-State team. He
made 150 tackles,100 solos fromhis
inside linebacker position for
Decatur'sregionalchampions.This
led to a lot of recruiting attention
making West one of the Pirate's top
recruits from the 1993 class.
"I considered Ga. Tech, South
Carolina and Qemson. Clemson
was probably my top choice, but
they were undergoing a coaching
change and that made me appre-
hensive about going there West
said.
Why ECU over some bigger
schools in bigger cities. "I needed a
change from the city and Greenville
seemed like a nice place for that
change he said.
As for getting 1994 off to a
good start. West made 10 tackles in
the opener against Duke, also
knocking down two of Spence
Fischer's passes, putting constant
pressure on the quarterback with a
strong passrush that he was able to
maintain for the whole ball game.
This represents quite a change
from last season where he had to
adjust to a position change from
inside linebacker to rush end.
"Well, it is a change from high
school and coming to ECU and
playinganew position Westsaid.
"Last season was a learning experi-
ence with me in the role as student
and Bernard Carter as teacher. I
enjoy rushing the quarterback.
There is no better feeling than hit-
ting the most-prized player on the
offense
West has made a great deal of
improvement over the last year,
and he attributes this to a combina-
tion of several factors: (1) the deci-
sion to stay in Greenville over the
summer and work with strength
coach Jeff Connors (2) defensive
linecoachCliffYoshida'spatience
and tutoring (3) learning from
older teammates' examples, and
(4) former defensive coordinator
Larry Coyer giving him confi-
dence at a time when West was
unsure of himself.
"Coach Connors has played
a vital role in us playing hard all
game West said. "We couldn't
ask for a better strength coach.
Coach Yoshida has really im-
proved my technique in pla -ng
against bigger players. He's been
very patient in helping me learn
from my mistakes to become a
better player
"I do miss Coach Coyer be-
cause he was the first guy who
made me believe in myself he
said. "He really cared about me
on the field, and I could never
forget that. Our new defensive
coordinator, Paut Jette, is a really
nice guy and a down-to-earth per-
son, so it's been a smooth transi-
tion"
Speaking of self-improve-
ment, West knows that he has a
way to go before being the best
that he can be.
"Basically, knowing the
game better, getting bigger and
improving my speed and
strength will help me to become
a complete player
Lorenzo West gives football
a lot of credit for making him a
betterperson. He is very involved
with community relations.
"Me and my roommate (Pi-
rate LB) B. J. Crane talk to kids in
the area by going into the schools
and trying to set a good example
and give them advice about stay-
ing in school and saying 'no' to
drugs he said.
One change noticable about
West was a new jersey number,
from 1 to 45. A new number defi-
nitely signals change and West
and the Pirate coaching staff are
hopeful that it will bring about a
big season and make people for-
get about the struggle of last sea-
son.

Henry adds speed to Pirate secondary
By A.Wilson
Staff Writer
Safety, by definition,
means security, impregnabil-
ity, a safeguard. In football, a
safety serves several purposes,
including defensive signal
caller, pass coverage and run
support.
Most importantly, the
safety is the last line of defense
between the line of scrimmage
and the end zone.
The ideal person to put
back there is someone who can
run fast enough to cut off op-
posing ball carriers and who
has enough recovery speed to
make up for his teammate's
mistakes and prevent long runs
and passes. Fortunately, ECU
is blessed with Dwight Henry,
a free safety who has speed to
burn.
Henry hails from Ft. Lau-
derdale, Florida's Plantation
High School, deep in the hot-
bed that is Florida high school
football.
Every year blue-chip ath-
letes come out of the hot Florida
sun to matriculate at big-time
football schools all over the coun-
try.
Tliis type of stiff competi-
tion is what breeds top athletes,
especially at the skill positions.
The weather allows for year-long
training in outdoor sports like
track and field and football.
Henry thrived in this com-
petitive atmosphere, winning
the state championship in the
400 meters, and he made the AU-
Blowhard County team in his
senior year while rushing for
over 800 yards.
He showed his versatility by
playing free safety, cornerback,
running back, wide receiver, and
kick returner. This blend of
speed and versatility that at-
tracted college recruiters and,
ultimately, brought Henry to
ECU.
Unlike most of ECU's foot-
ball players, Dwight Henry par-
ticipates in two sports. Last year,
during his freshman season, he
lettered in both football and
track.
He enjoyed a great deal of
success in both starting seven
games and finishing with 41
total tackles, including 29 so-
los.
He also made one tackle
for a loss and deflected two
passes. In track, he won the 400
meters at the Colonial Athletic
Association Championships
with a record time of 46.97 and
ran the anchor leg for ECU's
champion-IC4A 4X100 and
4X400 relay teams.
"Track really helps me to
develop speed and endur-
ance he said. "Running short
distances helps me cover a lot
of ground in a short period of
time
Henry is a social work ma-
jor and wants to eventually
work with counseling young-
sters in a boy's club setting, so
time management and hard
work on his studies is essential
for him to balance two sports
as well as his academics.
"Football is time-consum-
ing, and track is not. When-
ever I was behind during foot-
ball season, I could make up
for it in track season
Henry made an impressive
debut against the Blue Devils,
collecting six tackles and
knocking down two passes,
but most impressive was his
touchdown saving tackle on
Duke split end Jon Jensen who
was off to the races after a 75-
yard completion before being
caught from behind by the
sophomore safety.
See HENRY page 16
B.J. Crane
SoIL, LB, 6-1, 222
Crane made a huge impact
during preseason practices, and
brought it to the field last Satur-
day.
"Playing someday on Sunday
afternoons in the NFL motivates
me like nothing else. I want to
play on the next level and be a
role model for youngsters not
only in Greenville and Atlanta
where Crane grew up hut across

The College Park. Ga. native
led all ECU defenders with 17
tacklesagainst Duke, and was key
in limiting stopping the Blue
Devil running game.
"We will go into Veterans

ment from the first to the last

over they will say ECU hits like
no other team in the country

Soccer gets new look
By Jody Jones
Staff Writer
Soccer is taking a new look at
ECU this season. The Lady Pirates
are taking the field this fall for the
first time ever. The new womens'
program brings new challenges,
new piayers, and a new coach to
East Carolina University.
The head coaching vacancy
belongs to Scootie Carey, who also
coaches the men's squad. With
him being occupied with the mens'
program, a lot of the responsibil tv
will fall on the shoulders of new
assistant coach Killete Gilligan.
She is originally from Dublin, Ire-
land, where she played ontheeigh-
teen-and-under national team.
Coach Gilligan comes to ECU
from Methodist College in Fay-
etteville , where she was a three-
time All-American. Although she
helped out leading junior high and
high school soccer programs, this
is her first actual coaching job.
The I ady Pirates art- led on
the field by junior college trans-
fers Leigh Biggerman, Robyn
DesPasqaule and Stacy Schott.
The three played at Essex Com-
munity College, where they won
a national championship.
Although they are a young
and inexperienced team, Coach
Gilligan feels that the Lady Pi-
rates know what it takes to com-
pete at a Division 1-A level, stat-
ing that "this is a building pro-
cess that will come with time
Womens' soccer has finally
arrived at ECU and has a lot of
potential.
The Lady Pirates have just
six home games this season, in-
cluding three with CAA oppo-
nents. Coach Gilligan is looking
to the community for support as
the team makes its initial run
through Division l-A competi-
tion.

and noticed that they tip their plays
off b their tackles leaning in the
direction the ball is going.
He said they have a big offen-
sive line but lack agility. He is confi-
dent that thev can run past them and
make big plays. He gave the follow-
ing prediction for the game:
It will be a very exciting game,
and the defense will be a major factor
scoring points this week he said. "I
promise vou it will be a happy plane

"First of all I knew I had to
catch him before he scored and as
soon as I caught it and started
running down the sideline
Henrv said. "I knew I could catch
up to him
Henry runs a 4.36 in the 40
this season, comparable to NFL
defensive backs.
"I have a tendency to rely too
heavilv on my speed he said. "I
need to work on my anticipation
and be a little more aggressive.
As a unit we haven't changed
much of anything except for dis-
guising our coverages better and
breaking on the ball better
Henry gives a lot of credit to
secondary coach Chuck Pagano
who formerly coached defensive
backs at Miami and was defen-
sive coordinator at UNLV.
"We couldn't ask for a better
coach he said. "1 feel he is the
best change our secondary could
possibly go through, and I have
definitely seen a dramatic im-
provement in the unit since he
has started coaching us
Henry said that two things
motivate him on Saturday after-
noons ? Coach Pagano's pre-
game speeches and knowing his
girlfriend Christine is in the stands
cheering for him.
Look for big things in the fu-
ture from this young Pirate DB who
should be a fixture at the free safety
position for the next three years.
