On the proposed agenda for tomorrow's Board of Trustees meeting is the vote to increase stu- dent fees Members of SGA are presently working to have the vote postponed until January to allow time to research the increase and offer alternative measures "We are actively pursuing a postponement of the decision un- til January said Ian Eastman, SGA president. "We are trying to get some answers out to the stu- dent body Eastman said he and his cabi- net would like to alleviate all in- creases, but realize that is next to impossible. Therefore, they are stri.ing to see that students are informed prior to any tee increase 1 ast summer, the Board voted on student fee increases while stu- dents were away on summer va- cation. "Students are paying for these projects without really being in- formed said Dale Emery, SGA Speaker Emery was referring to projet ts including the paving of the fresh- men parking lot (at Allied Health). paving the Reade Street lots and constructing lots around Minges Coliseum and Uowdy-HcklenSta dium. One might wonder why the administration would vote to pave lots rather than increasing the size of the lots when the parking situ ation is in such disarray Accord- ing to associate vice chancellor for business af fai rs, 1 .av ton C ietsinger, the decision was made in an effort to improve existing lots. "The master plan calls for us to move parking off the core ot cam- pus he said. "There are no lots that have the capacity of being increased (.etsinger said the lots at Reade Street are in poor condition and need maintenance to improve the safety and the appearance Cam- eras are expected to be installed in the lots tor security reasons In the next two to three years, parking will become zoned, meaning stick- ers will be sold on a priority basis For instance, core parking will be sold at the maximum price Pe- rimeter parking, such as that at Minges, will be sold at one-halt the maximum price I ampus resi dents who are juniors and seniors will have priority to the i t av resi dents' parking "We are positioning ourselves financially Getsinger said refer- ring to establishing funds to move to the zone-stvle parking. According to Emery, students will not be the onlv ones facing increases in tees StaffFaculty parking stickers will also rise. Pri- vate lot stickers that now cost $210 will rise to$2K8. Percentage-wise, stafffaculty will suffer more, Emery said. The total bill tor the paving of the lots at Reade Street, paving and expanding the freshmen lots at Allied Health and constructing lots around the athletic fields will total over $2 million. According to the Parking and Traffic Revenue and 1 xpense Projections, the pav- ing of the lot at Allied Health, which totals $518,900, will be paid tor in cash. The remainder ot the bill will be paid for out ot a 5-year loan. The projections also show that in the previous academic school year, me office of Parking andTraf- fic accumulated $34b,62h in fines If that total were divided by the approximate number of students, 18,000, that would total $20 per student in fines to Parking and Traffic. The projections show that number decreasing this year by $16,000, but increasing steadily ovei the next seven years by $ OIK) per year. SGA, likeTEC .found these numbers to be confusing and contradictory and are request- ing additional time to go over the stat sties and determine if an increase in student fees can be avoided The Board will determine tomorrow if they will grant a delay in the vote. If this particular fee increase is passed, a two or three mora- torium will be passed that states that no student fee can be increased for that desig- nated period ot time. In 1991, a freeze was put on parking fix1 increases, but that time period expired this year See FEE page 5 jr - �s.

Compiled by Tambra Zion. Taken from official ECU police reports. Tambra Zion Assistant News Editor More than 2,000 senior, gradu- ate students and their families will gather in Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium at 9 a.m. on Dec. 10 for fall gradu- ation, weather permitting. Commencement exercises will begin with a band from the ECU School of Music at 9:15. The aca- demic procession will follow at 9:45. Fiction writer, poet and English professor Dr. Peter L. Makuck has been chosen to address the gradu- ating class. Makuck has taught at ECU since 1976, he came here af- ter teaching in France as a Fullbright Exchange professor. He has published short story and poetry collections and edits Tar River Poetry, and is the director of ECU's Poetry Forum. He is look- ing forward to speaking at gradu- ation. Makvxck received his under- graduate degree with a class of 48 people and never dreamed he would eventually be speaking to a crowd of 2,000. "Its definitely an honor, I knew it was an honor when I was invited but I kind of winced a little bit � I wasn't sure what I was going to say or if I had anything to say Makuck said. After some thought and writ- ing, Makuck has decided to talk about language. "How important it is in terms of your success as a citizen, never mind your success in business or your personal success, to be able to precisely say what you mean and understand other people Makuck said. He believes politicians and ad- vertises go to great measures to get the average person to hear their messages. "You need to know the words meaning, and you need to listen carefully to the spin that's put on these words in order to be a good citizen in order to be able to read the political and social realities of our times Makuck said. Makuckwasawarded theChar- ity Randall Citation from the In- ternational Poetry Forum in 1993 and was the 19488 winner of the Zoe Kincaid Brock Memorial Award, the highest honor given by the North Carolina P etry Soci- ety. Because of renovations to Minges Coliseum, no provisions have been made for indoor cer- emony. In case of rain, graduation will be delayed until 1:15 p.m. the same day. Other options include hav- ing the ceremony at 1:15 p.m. on Sunday or canceling until next May and holding a larger ceremony for both graduating classes. Degree candidates should as- semble under the north stands and enter the stadium through Gate 4A. Students are asked not to don their robes until they enter the stadium to help re- duce the risk of alcohol con- sumption within the stadium. ECU has provided a hotline for students and parents want- ing current information con- cerning the commencement ex- ercises. The hotline number is .128-4884 and it will provide in- formation on delays or a pos- sible cancellation. Area televi- sion and radio stations will an- nounce any delays. SGA finds secretary, ends semester Tambra Zion Assistant News Editor Laura Jackman also contributed to this story. Penn Crawford is the new Stu- dent Government Association (SGA) secretary. He won the po- sition by default because his op- ponent, Maureen McKenna failed to turn in her expense re- ports, according to the SGA of- fice. SGA concluded the semester Monday night by passing a pro- posal for a dead week, citing the need for an AM radio station and announcing support for a voter outreach drive. Robert Lewis addressed the assembly, stressing the benefits an AM radio station could bring ECU. He believes the radio sta- tion would provide students and visitors with important informa tion concerning school events, directions and university ser- vices. SGA is planning to implement a voter outreach drive by plac- ing voter registration forms at class registration points, and ensuring that these forms be de- livered to the North Carolina Board of Elections. The proposal for a dead week was passed. This means profes- sors would not be allowed to give students tests for a full week before exams begin. As the semester closes, execu- tive committee President Ian Eastman, Vice-President Sheila Boswell, Secretary Michael iongratulation and Good Luck East Carolina University Pirates Jl Jimmy Dean Foods � Carnes have all been absent once. Michael Carnes explained Eastman and Boswell's absences on Nov. 28 were caused by a make-up exam and an unavoid- able meeting. Throughout the semester, SGA has recognized more than twenty clubs and group consti- tutions, appropriated almost $17,000 to various student orga- nizations and admitted enough students to almost double the original assembly's size. Several bills were also introduced in- cluding one stating the need for more bicycle racks.

"At the beginning of the semester, the chancellor, two members of his staff and per- spective members of the Stu- dent Government Association took a walk through cam- pus identifying danger areas, and if you look around the library, there are new lights along the walkway where there weren't any before Eastman said. Executive council members also took measures to stop the office of business affairs from taking over the transit system. And what about those cam- paign promises? Eastman said he anticipates the implementation of a pay- ment plan beginning next fall. He said he needs to hold an additional meeting with the comptroller concerning the is- sue. Twenty-four hour study halls were mentioned during the semester. Eastman said the library did not seem like a favorable place and he would investigate the possibility of using Mendenhall as an ex- tended study facility. "We're the executive coun- cil going to work on that for next spring. The library is staying open extra hours as it is. Now we're going to sit back and see how many students are still in the library later on at night and see if we really need this Eastman said. Overall, Eastman said h�. is satisfied with the semester's events. "Yes, but there are a few individual goals of mine and of the executive staff tha t we'd to see get moving a little icker Eastman said. Jlike quk J A J J H 9Pcasant i�r urYri imp Info.

Thanks for a good year! -�� Decembers. 1994 The East Carolinian3 Greenville to celebrate season at Commons Jennifer Davis Staff Writer The Christmas season is ap- proaching once again, lifting our spirits and warming our hearts with the love and joy of the holi- days. On Saturday, Dec. 10, visi- tors and residents of the Greenville community can awaken their holiday spirit at the fourth annual Festival of Lights. "The festival, sponsored by the citv of Greenville, will begin at 4 p.m. starting with the Jaycees Holiday Parade said Carol Whiteford from the Greenville Recreation and Parks Depart- ment. The parade will start at Minges Coliseum and end up on First Street at the Town Com- mons. Virgil Clark, who is in charge of putting units in the parade, said that it will feature a variety of floats and numerous acts of entertainment. "There will be several horses, (about 20), three or four bands, six floats, and a few clowns Clark said. The floats will consist of the ECU cheerleaders and PeeDee the pirate, a Santa Claus float spon- sored by Richard L. Cannon, At- torney at Law, and the Greenville Jaycees and three other floats sponsored by uptown Greenville, Every Child's Next Step (a children's clothing store) and Jefferson-Pilot Life Insurance. Just after the parade, the Po- lice Band will play four songs from approximately 4 to 4.45 p.m. A Tree Lighting Ceremony- will follow at the Greenville Town Commons. The event will feature Greenville Mayor Nancy Jenkins lighting the offi( iil Festi- val of Lights Tree. The Greenville Area Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony So- ciety will provide holiday music that can be enjoyed by all who attend. Not only can the audi- ence enjoy the music, but they can also participate in a group sing-along of Christmas carols For the children and the young at heart, Sandra Jones will add to the celebration by reading the classic, memorable Story of "The Night Before Christ- mas And what would a Christ- mas festival be without the presence ol Santa Clause? He will be making a special ap- pearance so that children of all ages can sit on his lap and whisper their Christmas wishes in his ear. Vivarin not always right answer Wendy Rountree Staff Writer Pulling all-nighters, downing massive amounts of caffeine and stressing under the pressure of final exams are what a lot of stu- dents plan to do next week. "When 1 really get stressed out for exams and I know I have a real major exam the next day, I'll go to the store and buv some Vivarin and take a couple of them, so I can be able to stay up the whole night said Kim Curtis, a junior elemen- tary education major. Heather O. Zophy, health edu- cation coordinator at strdent health services, said students should be careful when using caf- feine products such as Vivarin and No-Doz when they want to stay alert. "If you are going to use the prod- 12PMCEDINNER ucts that are on the market now like Vivarin, No-Doz and the pep pills, it is recommended to follow directions and use them as the di- rections indicate Zophy said. Students who are currently us- ing certain types of medication may have extreme reactions to the caf- feine products. "Some drugs decrease the me- tabolism of caffeine like the birth control pill or oral contraceptives, tagamet, and certain antibiotics would decrease the metabolism of the caffeine Zophy said. "So, the person might get too much stimu- lation. They would get even more of an effect Students who smoke may get a lesser reaction from the caffeine products than students who do not smoke. "Smoking increases the metabo- lism of caffeine products Zophy said. "A smoker compared to a nonsmoker, taking a No-Doz, the person who is a nonsmoker will feel the effect of the No-Doz more See EXAM page 4 nl iii.il or k'ss PIRATE'S GALLEY 710 N.

EXAM From p.3 person who is the than the smoker Zophy said students can use alternative caffeine products like soft drinks, coffee, tea and cer- tain types of chocolate. "This is my first final's week said Rachel Baker, a freshman health education major. "I guess what I want to do is to stay up late and have a caffeine drink Caffeine products like Vivarin have about 100 to 200 milligrams of caffeine, while the alternatives like coffee and tea have 30 to 100 milligrams per cup. Caffeine, in general, stimulates the central nervous system and makes the heart beat faster, creates a sense of excitement and keeps people alert. Zophy said large amounts of caffeine from caffeine products or natural sources can cause health problems. "If caffeine is used in large quantities, it can activate an ul- cer Zophy said. "If apersonhad some type of ulcer and had it treated a long time ago, it could activate the ulcer again "It can increase high levels of blood glucose, which could be very hazardous to diabetics Other negative effects can be insomnia, restlessness, stomach pains, vomiting, headaches and ringing in the ears. With the added pressures dur- ing this time of year, Zophy said the health service center has an increased number of student pa- tients do not watch their health and do not get enough sleep. "I usually don't go to sleep because I feel like if I go to sleep, I'll just forget what I'm study- ing Curtis said. So, I feel better to keep on going and just study. I usually cram, so if I have a lot in �a row, I'll stay up late, and after I take my exam, I take a nap and then I'll stay up late again the next night Zophy said students should eat a balanced diet and exercise. Stress is also something students will be dealing with during finals week. "I feel that the exams do cause a lot of stress because so much of your future is riding on your final performance in those classes said Michael Rhys Scott, a freshman commercial arts major. "When I'm sitting mere study- ing, I get real stressed Curtis said. "I tend to smoke more than when I'm not stressed out studying from all these exams Dr. Russ Federman, director of mental health services, said stress can cause changes in heart rate, muscle tension and blood pres- sure. "(These are things that happen when one's autonomic nervous system is aroused as a result of distressing thoughts Federman said. "If we don't perceive any- thing to be threatening, present or future, we would not get stress Federman said stress can come from a student's state of mind, like whether or not a student believes, he or she, will past a final exam. "If you feel confidently that things are going to happen in a successful way, you may feel the pressure of the work demands, but that's not going to make you afraid Federman said. "It's just going to have you feel like you are working hard and that's not bad "But, if you are working hard, if you are feeling the impact of work- ing hard, which is normal, but you're fearing anticipated failure and saying 'Oh, my God, I'm go- ing to blow it that changes the whole complexion of the situa- tion Federman said students should not take exams lightly, but to also remember that it is not the end of their academic career to not do well on an exam because classes can be taken over. Federman said during exams, students cannot prevent stress be- cause everyone deals with it on a daily basis. However, he said stu- IMPORT SERVICE COMPLETE SERVICE AND REPAIR WE REPAIR -VOLVO � BMW � SAAB �VW - MERCEDES � AUDI �PORSCHE � NISSAN �TOYOTA �JAGUAR PEUGEOT � AND OTHERS �7T�77m BOSCH SYNTHETIC LUBRICANTS EXPERT WORKMANSHIP ALL WORK GAURANTEED6MO.6000 MILES ESTABLISHED IN 1976 i 756-9434 Sm 2204 DICKINSON AVE. dents can do things to manage stress levels and by remaining healthy. "One thing that I think students usually forget about is during times of peak stress, you have to main- tain healthy lifestyle habits Federman said. "So, the main thing is the maintenance of a healthy diet, the maintain of adequatesleep and the maintenance of regular exercise. It's like you think of your body as a machine, and if you know what a machine needs to function optimally under peak demand, it's got to have some basic essentials. Too often when students get into cramming, they just kind of forget that stuff Also, scheduling periods of study and relaxation can lessen stress. "1 think when under peak aca- demic loads, students need to cre- ate very clearly defined work schedules, including clearly de- fined play schedules Federman said. "Say to yourself, 'Okay, I'm going to study from 7:00 to 10:30, and then I'm going to take an hour break and then I'm going to study four more hours Planning how long to make a studying period or what activities to do during breaks is up to the individual. Federman said that if students find their stress to be too much to handle, they should seek help from student health services, the coun- seling center or resident advisors. MOVING SOON?

Hiring is projected to go up 5.9 percent over last year, according to a survey released today by the Collegiate Employment Research Institute at Michigan State Uni- versity. "New graduates should get better replies from employers than they have been receiving for the last three or four years said Patrick Scheetz, the institute's di- rector. The increase represents a "modest recovery from a very se- vere erosion of the job market he said. New college grads can expect to take home annual paychecks ranging from $20,821 for telecom- munications job to $40,689 for chemical engineers, according to the survey of 545 businesses, in- dustries and government agen- cies.

CHATTING WITH THE CHANCELLOR TEC will be meeting with Chancellor Eakin on a monthly basis to act as a liaison between the student body and the Chancellor's office. After each meeting, a box will follow written either by a TEC editor or by the Chancellor. On Shared Visions A monumental statement will be released at tomorrow's Board of Trustees meeeting dealing with the Shared Visions campaign which is scheduled to continue through next December. The goal of the campaign is to raise $50 million for Capital Improvement projects including the Joyner Library expansion, payment for Todd Dining Hall, renovations to Slay and Umstead residence halls and campus beautification projects. On property acquistions Eakin said that during a recent city council meeting, the Pitt County Public School Board asked to put a Public School Bond Referendum on the voting ballot in March. If passed, ECU will have the opportunity to purchase the old Rose High SchoolEppes Middle School property. The land will be purchased by ECU for $6 million, but the contract includes several terms. Included in the terms is the title to Wahl-Coates Elementary School, which ECU will relinquish, and a six-year hold on land usage. This six-year period will allow Pitt County the time to build a new school, but ECU will be able to survey the land and plan future projects. "That probably has more impact on this university than any of the bonds voted on in this state Eakin said. On Minges renovations With the opening home game of the basketball season just weeks away, Eakin spoke of anticipation for the grand opening of William's Arena in Minges Coliseum. "The renovation of Minges Coliseum will have a very pro- found, positive effect on our basketball program he said. "It is genuinely an arena that any university would be proud of The arena will enhance the basketball program in two specific ways, Eakin said, including adding to the environment and help- ing in recruiting practices. "We can bring events in and have the assurance that it will be a first class facility Eakin said. On Pirate football On the note of athletics, Eakin recognized the football team for its dedication in accomplishing their goals. He added that the Pirate football team was recognized by theNCA4 News as one of the three most improved football teams in the country. Other teams recognized were Duke and Colorado State. He spoke of the pride he felt while in Memphis for the team's final regular season game. "The joy that I saw expressed by the football team over their accomplishments is, to me, what this football season is all about� achieving success in the face of adversity Eakin said. From p. 1 "SG A is going to take this head- on Eastman said. "No one wants the fees to be increased SGA would like to see the fee increase rejected, but needs addi- tional time to determine if there are alternative solutions. If the Board votes tomorrow, the deci- sion will be final and fee increases will ike effect next fall. Eastman and his cabinet believe there are a lot of questions that remain unan- swered. "A lot of these questions could be answered if we could go over it with administration Emery said. The Board of Trustees meet- ing will be held at 10:30 a.m tomorrow in the Great Room in Mendenhall. Eastman encour- ages students to voice their feel- ings on the issue by attending the meeting or contacting Board Members (listed on the inside cover of the ECU phone book) or call the office of Business Affairs. Comments can also be directed to the SGA office. "I think the students can get a lot more for a lot less said Senior Class President Bill Gheen.

Fee increases proposed So�ial Pressure msPires anorexia r �� Rv Ancrpla McCullers For all you who feel strongly about tax increases, you'll love this one. ECU's own Board of Trustees is planning to vote tomorrow on fee increases that will jack- up the price of a parking sticker from $70 to $96. The proposal to be voted on is detailed and requires time to ponder. While the Board wishes to hastily pass its agenda, SGA is fighting to allay the vote until after the holidays so a more informed decision can be reached. Is SGA's request an unreasonable one? TEC does not believe that a hasty decision should be reached before the students' elected officials can study the plan and possibly offer alternative solutions. Why the Board of Trustees waited.until the end of the semester to do this is unreasonable. It leaves one to wonder whether or not they delayed this vote just so they could get what they want before students knew what hit them. Bear in mind, this is the same Board of Trustees that voted to increase fees for us while the bulk of the student body was on summer vacation. This is the same shrewd technique many members Congress used recently when they voted themselves a huge pay increase � conveniently after C- SPAN's camera's had gone off the air. Let your voice be heard on this issue. The Board is meeting at Mendenhall's Great Room tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. Do yourself a favor and show up at Mendenhall tomorrow to speak your piece, or it may cost you. For further details concerning this issue, see page one's article on proposed fee increases in today's paper. By Angela McCullers College provides opportunity for choice Sometimes we may think about what it is we will actually want to do with our lives after college and come up with a blank screen. This indecision can make for more than a little anxiety while we're here, because we often feel we should be planning and wot king toward whatever career itis we're supposed tobe working toward. Maybe some of us are here studying for something our parents want us to do, and that we've thought we wanted to do up until now, only to realize we're doing it for mem, not us. And, once realized, do we have the guts to tell them? All too often, probably not in the best way we could. Communication between family members is probably something we'll never perfect, although we can get better at it with age, and with a little patience, if we can keep trying. Some of us are probably studying in fields that, up until now, seemed like the thing we wanted to do with our life, but now its different We know more than we did before about it and it doesn't look the same any more. Do we have the guts to get out of it and try something new, after all this time? Do we have the courage toeven think about other possibilities, other roads we might take, and where they might lead? Theremustbesomethingout there that we're supposed to do, that we were meant to do, something that we could make a difference doing. If we don't believe this, then what do we believe in? If we can't make a difference with what we do in mis life, then what's the point anyway, rigjit? I think there comes these crucial times in our lives when we have some huge, life-changing decisions to make. Sort of like Robert Frost's, "Two Roads Diverged we come to forks in the road of our lives and must make the kinds of decisions that can only be made once. Once decided, we have no choice but to move on. There's no real point in looking back at what might have been. I've always thought one of the best things about being in the college environment is that it gives us these opportunities not only to make these crucial decisions, but to have a little time to mink about mem before we make them, to survey our different options and mentally look ahead and contemplate the consequences of our decisions. This is an opportunity we wouldn't often have if we were out in the world of nine-to-five, worrying too much about the daily grind and basic survival to think about what it is we actually want to do in life. Of course we're all in it for money, right? At least, in the by Patrick Hinson beginning this must be true for almost everyone. We all want to get rich some day. We've been taught by our culture mat is what the foundational goal in life must be. "Be aggressive That is how we will judge the level of our success,by how much we'reworth monetarily when we've reached as high as we can possibly reach. No amount of money is going to prevent that first heart attack, however, from the stress of always working, working, working for some materialistic, personal gain. And when the time comes to let go of this life, will we look back and be proud of what we've done, whose lives we've touched, what we've accomplished in this life. The Bible says that a rich person cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven. I think, whether you're a Christian and whether you believe in a Heaven or not, this warning still makes a good bit of sense. I also don't think it means "rich" literally. I think it means rich as in self-centered and greedily rich. If all we ever do in our short time here on earth is take care of ourselves, ignoring those around us and what might have been, what we really could have done in life, have we really accomplished that much at all? I think this is something each of us must answer individually, and better to do it now than later. In our society there is a "thin is intrim is in" bias. If we do not look like a model, many of us can feel out of it and not very good about ourselves. Social pressures to be thin are intense. Popular magazines are increasing the rate at which they publish articles on dieting and appearance. The model's who are held up as physical ideals for other women all across the nation have grown progressively slimmer over recent decades. Society has promoted the notion that physical perfection is important and thatour appearance somehow defines who we are. As a result of these notions, many American women become anorexic or bulimic. Anorexia nervosa is a dangerous eating disorder that can harm its victims physically and mentally as they starve themselves in a quest for thinness. This disorder makes a person obsessively think about not gaining weight. Some anorexics become exercise fanatics and work out for hours. At the same time, they limit their food intake. They also have low self esteem and a distorted body image. No matter how much weight they lose, whenever they look into the mirror they see themselves as fat. Anorexia nervosa has been called a "disease of abundance It is not known anywhere except in the affluent parts of the world, where food is plentiful. Although it was named first in the nineteenth century, and has been known and described throughout history, anorexia is considered a fairly recent phenomenon. Bulimia is another eating disorder that can be harmful to your physical and mental health. Princess Diana may be history's most famous victim of bulimia nervosa. Like anorexia, it is fueled and propelled by a dual obsession � thinness and food. Unlike anorexia, which prompts a person to starve themselves, bulimia is a binge-purge pattern (eat a large amount of food in a short period of time and men eliminate the food from the body). Women and girls compose 90 percent of the eight million people in the United States with anorexia and bulimia. Eating disorders are a result of a complex interaction of social and psychological factors. Anorexics and bulimic refer to food as a way of controlling their lives. In their quest for control, they become thinner, sometimes even disappearing altogether. Women suffer from these diseases in silence and shame, with little advocacy for research or prevention. In a world where most of the hungry are female, it is a tragic irony mat starvation � whether economically based or socially enforced � tastes the same. Is it possible today mat being slim and attractive does in fact offer us an adaptive advantage? Society has gradually evolved into a more and more visual one, with images on film and tape commanding our attention more insistently than words on paper, it's still not entirely clear why the voluptuous female idols of the past have been replaced by icons of almost boy-like slimness. For many generations and many cultures, the pressure, particularly upon women, to fulfill their societies' expectations of physical beauty have given rise to devices meant to help the woman along her way to the "ideal" form Often these devices have been dangerous and even life threatening. Hundreds of women are trapped by an illness that mocks them with illusions while it devastates their bodies. Hundreds afflicted with anorexia or bulimia are trying to break free. We should not criticize each other so harshly for having the appearance that does not meet some arbitrary standard. Beauty is a state of mind. -Letters to the Editor- To the Editor. In response to Joshua White's editorial on November 29, "Watch out, here come the Republicans I have only thing to say, Mr. White is right on the mark. The points he made about the domination of moral issues in the Republicans' platform are all true. However, 1 will not condemn all Republicans as a part of the religious right. The reason issues like prayer in public schools are becoming popular right now is because groups such as the Christian Coalition are trying to take over the Republican party. Not everybody in America is a Christian, nor does everybody want to be a Christian. Article 1 of the Constitution is clear, NOT A CHRISTIAN NATION sic. America is definitely NOT A CHRISTIAN NATION. However, America is a Jewish, Buddhist, Islamic, Hindu, Unitarian, Agnostic, Atheist, Christian nation. Therefore, laws mat are modeled around morals of groups like the Christian Coalition should never be imposed onto the people of this country. I have a feeling mat most of us do not want to carry a Bible to class everyday. Nor are we willing to condemn homosexuals and abortion doctors as sinners that will forever bum in hell. But people that believe these things are now running Congress. There is a simple solution, however. Getoff your lazybutts, become politically active, and change the country. The power that these groups have can be easily taken away. This country does not just belong to Pat Robertson and Jesse Helms. It's ours too, and we can believe what we damn well want to believe.

Take it as you will. 1 he manipulation of tacts by the media has been a mat- ter of discussion on many fronts these days. I'm sure there are some skewed facts here and there with the sheer number of scandals and acts of mayhem that have occured recently. But what about the manipulation of the media by the sources themselves? Could it be possible that the American political system would stoop to the level of passing along half-truths masked as political promises? Would they stretch the truth in order to further themselves or destroy their opponent? Case in point, one of the platforms that many Repub- lican candidates advocated was term limits for Congress. rhey staunchly stood by this idea, saying that if they were elected they would pursue it relentlessly. This new bill would prevent people like Strom Thurmond, who has been in Congress since the mid-twentieth century, from being there for life. If the President is limited in his number of terms in office, shouldn't Congress and the Senate? Yes, it seems like a good idea. Too bad they don't plan on following through with it. The Republican GOP gae to the media what amounts to a letter of intent upon being elected to office; it stated all the basic platforms that most Republican candidates were holding as their own views. It seemed to imply that they in- tended to pursue the passing of term limits until the end. After the election, they let us in on their real intentions. These term limitations would not take effect until long after the year 2000, and it would not be retroactive, which means it would not apply to those already in office. When questioned on this, many newly-elected Republican of- ficials pointed to the letter of intent, which basically said that they would bring the term limitations to a vote and that it never really said that they would make it a law. So, in effect, the Republican party made a strong issue out of this concept during the elec- tion and made damn sure that the media and the general public thought of it as one of their goals, when they never intended to actually pass the motion. In other words, they lied. So there it is. The conser- vative members of our soci- Mark Brett Lifestyle Editor Christmas came early this year. But then again, it always does at WZMB. Each vear, our college radio sta- tion sponsors Christmas in Novem- ber, a call-in giveaway promotion. Loyal listeners keep their ears open every November for the sound of Santa's rocket sled, which is their cue to call in tor prizes. This year's promotion went well for the sta- tion, bringing in close to 200 win- ners between Now 7 and Nov. 30. Among the prizes handed out this year were free meals from Ragazzi's, Professor O'Cool's, BW- 3, Subway and Red Lobster. Free ice cream from Hank's was also given away, along with various cassettes, compact discs and video rentals from Last Coast Music & Video. Irtey even gave awaj tree bowling. According to Drew Catlin, WZMB's Grants Manager, all the businesses involved in the promo- tion wereglad tohelpout. Which is a good thing since Gatlin didn't find out about the promotion until mid-October. Working frantically and putting his years of promotion experience to good use, Catlin pulled out a virtual truckload ot prizes, enough for the station to give away a prize every hour from 2-10 p.m. Why the rush1 Since school lets out halfway through December, November is the only time WZMB has to really give i ut prizi -s. a! least tor Christmas Wi been doing giveaways all along, we just stepped up the pat c in ember t iatlin said. On Nov 30, the station gave awa their grand prize, a dorm size refrigerator. Notsatisfied with a simple call-in tor the big finale, the station decided to ha e a scav- enger hunt. Items included on the list ot scavenger items were a large ice cube, a ticket stub Irom the 1991 Peach Bowl, a model of the starship Enterprise and a foui leal lover. Irtat last item, perhaps the tough- est on the list was found b the grand prizev inner, BobNowoc,as he headed to turn in his scavenged booty.

The only restriction is that no ampli- fiers are allowed. The next Jam-A- Thon is scheduled to take place Dec. 23 at the Plaza from 4-9 p.m. The event helps raise money for Disabled American Veterans. An open guitar case accepts do- nations in front of the stage. Rob- ert Lewis, the Philanthropy Chair of Sigma Phi Epsilon, helped start the event. "I went to New Orleans and saw people playing in the street for money, and it seemed really entertaining Lewis said. "Then I was watching MTV's un- plugged feature, and I saw artists like Whitney Houston raising money for South Africa, and Phil Collins raising money for the homeless. "Shortly after this I was watch- ing TV, and saw a Travis Tritt video for Disabled American Vet- erans. So 1 got in con tat t with the group he's involved with, and we decided Disabled American Veterans was the charity we wanted to work with The first musical showcase took place last October at the Plaza. Originally, it was sched- uled to be on the campus mall but was moved indoors due to rain. Eric Saddler from the Sad- dler School of Music performed. The Saddler school still plays a large role in supporting the event. Since October, three other na- tionwide fraternity chapters have featured a Jam-A-Thon: the UCLA Chapter, the New York University Chapter, and the Middle Tennessee State Chapter. Warner Brothers offices in New York, Los Angeles and Nashville are working with these chap- ters to help support national recognition for the event. "Holding this event allows a lot of different types of mu- sic tc be played Lewis said. "And so a lot oi different types of people are able to come out and support the event. It's ex- citing, and it motivates people Mixed Nuts spill from the can at Hendrix Theatre Ike Shibley Staff Writer The last sneak preview for the semester was shown Tuesday night at Mendenhall. The film,MaoMte, stars Steve Martin as a likable but hapless state worker who runs a suicide prevention hotline called Lifesavers. The film was written and directed by Nora Ephron (Sleepless in Seattle). Kudos go to the film com- mittee for bringing three sneaks to Mendenhall this term. Unfortunately, the last film of the term is also the worst. Mixed Nuts has an unnecessarily complex story filled with one-dimensional characters. The story is told with no flair and the writing trivializes com- plex issues like suicide. The tired punoftheclinic'snameaJoneshould alert viewers to the depth of the material in the film. Steve Martin can be a hilariously funny comedian. His sense of physi- cal comedy has elevated many a film, most notably All of Me, but the few scenes of physical comedy in Mixed Nuts add nothing to thestory. Martin's few pratfalls stick out like bad dialogue and elicit no laughs. Finding quality films seems to be a problem for Martin. He has made many more mediocre to bad films than he has made great ones. Mixed Nuts will have to be remembered as one of his worst. One of Martin's other bombs, My Blue Heaven, was, interestingly, also written by Ephron. Mm'rfNufstakesplaceonaChrLst- mas Eve in the beach community of Venice, California. As the film be- gins, Phillip (Martin) learns that Life- savers is being evicted from their offices at the beginning of the year. Phillip feels sorry more for the other two clinic workers than for himself. Catherine O'Shaughnessey (Rita Wilson) and Blanche Mur.chnik (Madeline Kahn) have problems of their own and rely on their jobs at the clinic as a source of satisfaction in their lives. Phillip fears that clos- ing the clinic will devastate the two women as well as deprive the com- munity of a valuable service. The plot involves Phillip, Catherine and Blanche but does not focus on any of them. Instead, we are introduced to a host of other characters with problems of their own Gracie (a hopelessly miscast Juliette Lewis) is pregnant but can- not decide if the father of the child, Felix (Anthony LaPaglia), is worth staying with. Louie (Saturday Night Lire's Adam Sandier) lives in the samebuildingastheclinicand writes T-shirts for a living. He has a crush on Catherine and writes songs tor her which he plays on his ukulele. Chris (Liev Schreiber) is a transves- tite who comes to the clinic because he has no one with whom he can talk. He ends up flirting with Phillip and asking him to dance. All these oddball characterseven- tuallv converge in a preposterous ending designed to tweak emotional chordswhileevokingsmiles because of the absurdity of the situation. But nothing in the film prior to this hare- brained ending develops the char- acters enough for the audience to care for them. Rita Wilson deserves special no- tice because for too long she has been known only as Mrs. Tom Han ks. She flexed her acting muscles in Sleepless in Seattlewhen shebreaks down sobbing while relating the plot of An Affair to Renienibcrtotwomaes. Wilson possesses genuine charm and a sense of comic timing. Hope- fully Mixed Nuts will at least allow her to get better roles even i f the fi lm bombs. The few laughs elicited by this film cannot begin to compensate for the empty shell of a movie. Because of the shallowness of the characters and the trite handling of the story, Mixed Nuts fails at every level. It works neither as a comedy nor as a light drama.

(AP) � Some may consider William Behrends' use of pure, white Italian marble, which al- lows no mistakes, an ironic choice for the subject of his latest sculpture � former Vice President Spiro Agnew. Mistakes, after all, cost Agnew his office. But as Behrends sculpts the bust for the U.S. Capitol, his thoughts are of Agnew as a part of history. For Agnew, political life is merely part of his personal history. "He'soutofthatworld Behrends said. "I got the impression he didn't pay much attention (to politics) Agnew left politics in 1973 when he resigned as vice president after pleading no contest to tax evasion charges. Federal prosecutors had ac- cused him of accepting kickbacks fromconstructioncontractors, which he denied.

In his 1980 book, "GoQuietly or Else Agnew blames his demise on lying contrac- tors, a vengeful press and a White House snarled in Watergate. Since then, he has lived quietly, either at a condo in Maryland or at h is home in California. He turns down most requests from reporters, whom he once labeled the nattering nabobs of negavitism. It was 20 years after Agnew left office before the U.S. Senate autho- rized the $40,000 commission for his sculpture, even though an 18S5 Sen- ate resolution provides for white marble busts of all vice presidents. Behrends, however, thought only of the honor for him. He was pleased that his name would be included among the sculptors represented in the U.S. Capitol. Besides, Agnew is hardly the first controversial vice president to be honored with a sculpture. Aaron Burr, who mortally wounded Alexander Hamilton in a duel, is there as well. To make a clay model of his bust, Behrends, 48, met with Agnew four times during the sum- mer of 1993. Times they were out together, people would say to Agnew, "I voted for you in 1968 and 1972, and I'd vote for you today Behrends said. Those comments surprised Behrends, as did his own reaction to Agnew. "The Agnew in office was a tough character Behrends said. "He was the guy who got the job done. He was not the ideo- logue I expected to meet. He was a very open and warm person TREK From p. 10 figure, and he graces the latest Star Trek pinball machine.

One of his recent projects was directing Leonard Nimoy in a Hal- loween night adaptation of "The War of the Worlds" for National Public Radio. Currently, he's directing an all- American cast in "Julius Cae- sar" for the BBC. Q-like, he's playing the manipulative bad- guy Cassius. De Lancie insists he's not concerned getting typecast as Q. "When you think about it, the alternative isn't so hot he said. "I mean, an actor's got to be known for something. Type- casting is an unfortunate kind of reflex punishment for hav- ing done a good job. But what's the alternative? To not do a good job?" DROP From p. 9 ety have been harping on the media's supposed bias toward the liberal left, (although I never really saw any examples of this). The media's job is to tell it like it is, and we can take whatever meaning from it we can. As far as the Republican platform was concerned, the media was tell- ing it like it was, they only re- layed the information that was given to them. It is obvious to me now that the Grand Old Party used double speak to give you a reason to vote for them. There may be other instances of this kind of media manipulation, but this was the most recent and the most obvious. This is not just an in- dictment of Republican cam- paign ethic�; both the left and the right have left many prom- ises unfulfilled. I have no data to back it up, but I think America as a whole places very little trust, if any, in their elected officials.

Tony Parham and .Tim Basham added 11 and 10 �. points, respectively, for the Pi- rates (2-2), who have lost their last two games. Livers' three-point play on a pull-up jumper in the lane and converted free throw gave Campbell the lead for good at 10-8 with 14:51 remaining in the first half. The closest the Pirates would come to CU was with an Anton Gill jumper with 9:12 re- maining in the opening period to cut the lead to 19-18. Campbell, however, went on a 15-2 run over the next five- and-a-half minutes. Included in the flurry was a technical foul on ECU's Tim Basham - the first of three techs on the Pirates during the evening. 1 .ie ECU bench was whistled for a tech at 10:05 in the second half, while forward Chuckie Robinson was called for one at 14:19 of the half. ECU shot 51 for the floor (25-49) on the night, but made sixteen turnovers and were outrebounded 29-24 by the smaller Camels. Campbell shot just 44 percent on the evening (21-48) after making 54 percent of their first-half shots. Campbell, however, had just five second-half turnovers and had only 13 in the game. ECU's next game is against the Western Carolina Cata- mounts on Saturday, Dec. 10, at 7 p.m. in Cullowee, N.C. McPhail spreads positive message Aaron Wilson Assistant Sports Editor The life of a ECU football player means long hours spent on the practice field and in the weight room. Jerris McPha a junior running back from Clinton, NC stays busy with a major in Criminal Justice, but recently took time out from football and classes to visit with some of his young fans at Wahl-Coates El- ementary School yesterday. The visit gave these youngsters a chance to meet one of their favor- ite Pirates, ask him questions and to get his autograph. For two fifth graders, Michael Vaughn and Abhay Aneja, it gave them a chance to interview McPhail for their school newspa- per, The Purple Pirate. These 10- year-olds were impressive with the type of probing questions they asked McPhail. They were very familiar with his accomplish- ments on the football field and knew a lot about the different ECU players and coaches. Here is a sample of their interview. "Will you be the running back after Junior Smith is gone" asked Michael Vaughn. "Hopefully, with a lot of hard work I can fill Junior's shoes Jerris McPhail said. "It won't be easy, but I think I should be able to do the job and our running game won't miss a beat "What do you want to do after you are done witn football?" asked Abhay Aneja. "My dream is to become a pro- fessional football player, but if that doesn't work out, then I would like to work in law en- forcement McPhail said. "You always have to have something to fall back on, in case football doesn't work out. I am confident in my ability to play in the NFL, but if I don't, my education will ensure that I will be successful no matter what Abhay would like to be a ten- nis player or a teacher. Vaughn would like to be a sportswriter if he doesn't play for his favorite team, the San Francisco 49ers. "It was cool meeting Jerris Vaughn said. "I like to watch him plav football, and I can't wait to watch him in the Liberty Bowl.

NCAA monitors Las Vegas gambling (AP) � Between the staid NCAA and the glamorous, any- thing-goes Las Vegas Stripia cu- rious tie took root. Normally, these two are worlds apart. The NCAA cam- paigns against gambling at ev- ery turn and has adopted by- laws that will prohibit Las Ve- gas from ever hosting its annual convention. Yet, both sides share a mutual interest in the integrity of col- lege sports. If games Were "fixed" by players or officials shaving points to ensure gam- blers' winning bets, Nevada's legal sportsbooks could lose a fortune. The NCAA, whose lifeblood is CBS television money and other revenue from its super-suc- cessful basketball tournament, could lose even more. "We try to maintain contacts with individuals in Las Vegas said Rich Hilliard, a director of enforcement for the NCAA who helps keep a watchful eye on gamblers and gambling. "It's in their best interests when they think something is amiss to alert us. They will take a game right off if there's a big fluctuation in the point spread. These are people who are legitimate em- ployees of the gambling indus- try in Nevada For a variety of reasons, many officials believe the climate is ripe for a new scandal engulfing college basketball, because gam- bling on sports events is grow- ing among college students in general. "I have no knowledge or in- formation that something's about to happen said Dave Cawood, the NCAA's assistant executive director for broadcast services. "But that doesn't mean it's not going to happen today. "It's prominent for fraterni- ties and other student groups to sell parlay cards Cawood said. "People don't even think about it anymore, it's so common Hilliard said there have been "more cases in the past three years involving student-athletes and gambling than there had been the previous five years. "Not point shaving he added. "I'm talking about stu- dents and student-athletes in- volved with parlay cards and commonplace gambling, and also gambling on college events For the NCAA, the value of the games' credibility was never greater. On Tuesday, the NCAA agreed to a $1,725 billion con- tract that keeps the Final Four on CBS through 2002. It is the highest total price tag of any TV sports rights deal ever made. The most recent point-shav- ing scandal to rock college bas- ketball came in 1985. Another such scandal during this time of heightened public skepticism might undermine the Final Four itself. And a point-shaving scan- dal that damages the Final Four might also spur congressional intervention in college athletics, the biggest fear of most admin- istrators. But officials also fear that in- nocent players could get trapped unwittingly. "An athlete could be just act- ing like any other student in a dorm and play one of those par- lay cards for a dollar, not under- standing the ramifications Cawood said. "And suddenly his whole career and the univer- sity and his teammates and his coach could be tarnished by the revelation that, 'Here's a stu dent-athiete betting on sports "A guy might not give it a second thought if everybody else in the dorm was doing it The NCAA briefly consid- ered, then abandoned the idea of withholding tournament cre- dentials from newspapers pub- lishing point spreads. People believe one factor mak- ing college players more suscep- tible than ever to gamblers' offers is the spread of legal casinos around the country. "It used to be that you had to go to Las Vegas to gamble legally said Jim Haney, ex- ecutive director of the Na- tional Association of Basket- ball Coaches. "Now there are riverboat operations up and down the Mississippi, gam- bling on Indian reservations. Things that raised our eye- brows 15 years ago are now acceptable. It's something coaches are very worried about Others believe the biggest danger comes from drugs. Lem Banker, a prominent Las Vegas gambler and author of sports betting books, said he would be "more suspicious of the officials than of the star players "Right now I think the game is pretty honest Banker said. "Every star player thinks he's going to get a big NBA or NFL contract, so they're going to be very hesi- tant to risk all that for a $5,000 payoff. But a guy can get hooked on something, and then he could be blackmailed Frier paralyzed after accident (AP)�Seattle Seahawks Mike Frier can't move his legs or fin- gers and probably never will, a neurosurgeon says. "He has no sensation below ' his belly button Dr. Michael Schlitt said Monday at Overlake Medical Center, where Frier and teammates Chris Warren and J Lamar Smith were brought after the car they were in crashed into . a utility pole last Thursday. "We've not seen any deterio- ration on the neurological front since the time Frier was admit- ted Schlitt said. "Unfortu- nately, we have not seen any substantial neurological im- provement particularly in his hands and legs. Frier, a third-year defensive tackle, was in serious condition, heavily sedated, with his skull and spine in traction. He was suffering from pneu- monia in his left lung � a com- plication resulting in part from his inability to cough and clear his lungs�and will probably always be plagued with lung infections, pulmonary specialist Dr. Ronald O'Quin said. However, Frier, 25, was able to move his biceps in both arms and had some movement in his left tricep muscle, Schlitt said. He likely will be able to breathe with- out a respirator as he begins to recover. Pro Bowl running back Warren broke two ribs, but played Sun- day and rookie running back Smith injured his foot in the acci- dent near team headquarters in Kirkland. Still unresolved was the ques- tion of who was driving the car when it crashed. Kirkland police said Warren was driving, but they are continuing their investigation. The results of a lie detector test reportedly indicate he was not driving. The polygraph test was part of a separate investigation by Warren's legal representatives, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer re- ported in today's editions. It was administered Monday by Dr. David Raskin, a professor of psycho-physiology at the Uni- versity of Utah. The results sup- port Warren's contention that he is not responsible for the accident. Smith has said that he was be- hind the wheel. Warren was ar- rested for investigation of vehicu- lar assault shortly after the crash near a rain-slicked road a few blocks from Seahawks headquar- ters in suburban Kirkland. "In a case like this, where you have a very disputed issue of facts, the law enforcement agencies will frequently rely upon a polygraph to differentiate A from B said See SEATTLE page 13 Hayes goes for two Shay Hayes a sopho- more forward from Pomfret, MD's McDonough High School was recently selected for Player of the Week after her 20 point perfor- mances in the Lady Pi- rates undefeated start of the season.

Things are hopping at the 93rd annual meeting of the National As- sociation of Professional Baseball Leagues, even if this year's gathering is a far cry from past shows that turned into swap meets. OK, so the winter meetings are no longer the boiling point of hot-stove action. Players, agents, team owners and general managers stopped com- ing after the 1992 meeting ended in a $250 million spending frenzy. The Famous Chicken and Morganna The Kissing Bandit are here, and there was a fast-pitch con- test between a guy who calls himself the Bleacher Preacher and a lady who styles herself Dynamite Woman. But the meetings themselves are little more than a trade show and job fair this year. The only business taking place that might interest fans is the major league draft of minor leaguers, and only hard-core fans have heard of most of the 24 players taken Mon- day. The only names that might ring a bell are former big-leaguers Rich DeLucia, Craig Worthington and Ed Vosberg. The first player taken was shortstop Tomas Perez, who went to California from Montreal. The Expos were the hardest-hit organization, losing four prospects. Three players were taken from the Class AAA teams of Baltimore and Oakland. Other than the draft, there was not much news to be found. Instead, there were hundreds of baseball wannabes milling through the lobbies and meeting rooms at the Loews Anatole Hotel, looking at exhibits, attending meetings, trying to find jobs. Many conventioneers, who paid registration fees of at least $150, hung out in the "Employ- ment Opportunity Work and In- terview Room" looking over six boards covered with job postings. Some of the fliers were call- backs for follow-up interviews. Peoplecrowded against each other to check out the lists, like kids checking out a coach's cut list. The jobs were for all sorts of behind-the-scenes duties. Want to be a minor-league trainer? The Houston Astros have an opening for a bilingual appli- cant. Ever thought of sales? The up- coming Women's Professional Fastpitch League has plenty of openings, although it has not picked any cities yet for fran- chises. And, if you think you can "make sure the Memphis Chicks get great media coverage the public relations opening with the Class AA team might be for you. There were architects to de- sign stadiums and companies selling everything from dirt to scoreboards. Two firms com- peted to sell seats with different types of cup-holders. Several companies offered pennants and other souvenirs. And,of course, there were plenty of people hawking bats, balls and all sorts of uniforms. Nomatter the labor conditions, the games must go on.

I really enjoy my job, and feel like it helps my students to see someone do- ing the right tiung � Ms. Foster agrees with Marshmon about how much it - means to the kids to see a Pirate come and talk to the kids about education. "They want to know his phi- losophy of education Foster said. "That was really important to them to find out how he feels about school. I think he sets a really good example for students who don't have the money to go to college. B.J.

ECU junior offensive tackle Charles Boothe (6-7,285) has all of the necessary qualities to be a All-American and NFL draft pros- pect at the position. Boothe took over for senior of- fensive lineman Kenny Carroll at left tackle after Boothe had started the first game of the year at left guard. He had since substituted for Carroll several times during the season be- cause of his superior pass protection. Boothe is now firmly entrenched as a starter and, with one season left for him at ECU, offensive coaches are excited about his potential and abil- ity. "Boothe has come on like gangbusters ECU offensive coor- dinator Todd Berry said. "He looks like a great talent and has a tough mentality A switch from the defensive side of the ball was a welcome one for Boothe after he started a few games as a redshirt freshman at de- fensive end. "I like offense a lot better even though I did have success on defense first Boothe said. "In high school, I played offensive tackle and was really good at it. When I first got here, at 209 pounds I didn't think I'd ever be big enough to play offensive line at the college level In order for Boothe to play offense he would have to gain weight, no easy task for someone who describes him- self as naturally skinny. Bob Slowik (former ECU defensive assistant and currently defen- sive coordinator for the Chi- cago Bears) raved about Boothe's abilities and warned his outside linebackers after Boothe had drove upperclass- men LB Marc Washington to the ground. "I liked playing tight end okay, but I couldn't catch the ball too well Boothe said. "1 did catch a touchdown in high school, but playing it here is way too hard, as far as being a receiver. It didn't work out too well, so I wanted to gain weight and play offensive or defensive line Gain weight is what Boothe did and he had a familiar plan of attack to put on the pounds � home cook- ing. "I just went home that first sum- mer and ate Mom's cooking Boothe said.

"I didn't really learn how to play this position until last spring Boothe said. "With all the good players, I didn't have a chance to play until I learned my stuff.

I By Dave Included in Pond tne nominations editor are two defensive players � DB Dwight Henry and LB Mark Libiano, and four players from ECU's high-octane offense. They are, QB Marcus Crandell, TB Jun- ior Smith and OLs Terry Tilghman and Ronnie Suddith. Crandell, a sophomore, came back this season from a career- threatening leg injury suffered in 1993 to throw for over 2,650 yards and 21 TDs. He completed over 57 percent of his passes, averaging 11.68 yards per completion. Crandell ranks eighth in Div. I-A football in total offense, piling up 253 yards per contest. "Marcus has a great arm, is quick and mobile, and has great in- stincts Pirate head coach Steve Logan said. "He also has the lead- ership abilities and attitude to match All-time ECU rushing leader Junior Smith was also named FN Honorable Mention All-American for his stats during the '94 season. He finished the regular season with 1,204 rushing yards and 9 TDs, ranking him 23rd in the nation. He finished 18th in all-purpose rush- ing (137.27 ypg). He also caught 35 passes for 306 yards and a TD. "One would think that Junior could have rested this spring ECU offensive coordinator Todd Berry said. "However, he is one of the hardest workers on the team. And, for that reason, he has become a much better receiver and picked up a step Junior inside LB Mark Libiano leads the Pirates with 135 tackles, including 13 for losses. He has averaged 11 tackles per game during his career as a Pirate, and has netted double figures in 15 of his 25 games played. "Mark can be as good as he wants to be Pirate defensive co- ordinator Paul Jette said. "He has good instinct, runs well and has improved his pass coverage Sophomore Dwight Henry was named The Sporting News Defensive Player of the Week (Oct.l) for his outstanding play against Southern Miss. He fin- ished the season with 76 tackles, third on the squad, and lead the Pirates in pass deflections with 12. Senior Terry Tilghman can play all five offensive line posi- tions, and has started at right guard the last 10 games of the 1994 season. He started at center in the Pirates' opener against Duke, and has also seen action at right guard this season.

Hard Bodies Fitness Center wishes the Pirates good luck Ringing in the New Year with a Bowl Victory ft December 30,1994 TEC End Zone Pages Richardson moves up depth chart, into starting lineup At the beginning of this season, sophomore tight end Sean I Richardson was By Aaron third on ECU's Wilson asst. editor depth chart, behind Dwight Linville and Scott Richards. Injuries to both have forced him into the starting lineup much sooner than expected. He has made the most of this opportunity, catching 17 passes for a 156 yards and two TD's and two 2- point conversions. Richardson got his first start and career receptions ver- sus Virginia Tech, and lias started the last six games of the season. A tight end's role varies depend- ing on a team's offensive philosophy. The Pirates make the tight end an in- tegral part of their offensive attack. The ECU tight end must be a strong blocker and an excellent downfield threat with the speed and hands to spread out a defense. Richardson has not quite reached the pinnacle of suc- cess as ECU's two tight end-NFL draft choices (Carlester Crumpler, Jr. and Luke Fisher), but he has left a defi- nite impression on the Pirate offensive attack. "I am very aware of who has been at this position before me Richardson said. "Those two have set a standard for excellence. I don't feel any pressure to perform at their level. Every player should set goals to play that well and I try to do that every time I step on the football field One thing that sets him apart from Richards and Linville is being more of an all-around talent in terms of being a stronger blocker than them. 'There's always room for im- provement, but I feel like I'm playing the best that I can right now Richardson said. "This position is very deep in talent. It just so happened that injuries put me in the starting lineup, and I just want to make the most of it Standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 230 pounds, Richardson is difficult to defend for smaller defensive backs.

"When I do catch the ball and see a guy that is smaller than me my eyes get real big he said. "If I can avoid him and get six points that is good, but I like to lower my shoul- der and punish people. In the offseason, I want to develop my moves to get away from guys to score While he enjoys the glory of scoring touch- downs he really likes to get down- and-dirty in the trenches with the offensive linemen. "In high school all I did for three years was block Richardson said. "I didn't catch my first pass until my jun- ior year. Blocking is easy for me be- cause I am a physical kind of guy. It is fun to bump heads with guys bigger and smaller than me. Let's strap on the helmets and see who's better This competitive spirit began to boil over earlier this year when he didn't play much against Duke in his hometown of Durham, NC. "You try to be patient and wait your turn, but it's really hard to sit on the bench Richardson said. "The Duke game at home, that really hurt. It is all part of the game. I prayed to God for patience, and it finally hap- pened for me Substation says: We're proud of the PIRATES! Bring Home the Victory! BEAT ILLINOIS Since getting his chance Richardson has become one of QB Marcus Crandell's favorite targets, es- pecially on the tough catches over the middle. One big advan- tage for Richardson is his being tutored by Willie Scott. Scott was the 14th player selected in the 1981 draft by the Kansas City Chiefs vi- ler playing at South Carolina. He played with the Chiefs for five seasons before finish- ing his career with the New England Patriots. "It has been a great experience play- ing for Coach Scott Richardson said. "He has played this position in the NFL, and that really helps. He knows it in- side and out, and that really helps me to learn the position Another advantage for Richardson is a giant-sized pair of hands. His hands easily extend all the way around the football. "It has always been a big advan- tage of mine Richardson said. "I try to spread my fingers and secure the ball each time All of this success wasn't always assured for Richardson who wasn't always recognized as a top flight Di- vision I-A prospect.

Page TEC End Zone December 30.1994 BOOTHE that he uses to get leverage on defen- sive players. "I feel like I have good feet Boothe said. "Running a 4.9 40-yard dash is fast for an offensive lineman. Having long arms helps a lot. A lot of defensive linemen grab your jersey and try to get in to your shoulder pads to push you back to the quarterback. I lock them out and don't even let them get close to hitting Marcus An aggressive defensive men- tality has stayed with Boothe after changing to the offensive side of the ball. He received a personal foul for a late hit against Memphis in the Pirates's big victory. Boothe nailed a Memphis defender and sent him tum- bling to the grass. "I was just trying to make a block Boothe said. "We need more of that kind of thing on o.ffense. You never know when Junior Smith will break one, so I decided to hit anything that moves between the whistles Boothe emphasizes that he is a Cont. from page 3 clean player that plays within the rules. He doesn't like "cheap" tactics, like leg whipping or holding. "Well, I think if you can't block a person straight up then you're not a real player Boothe said. "If someone beats me, then he's just a better player than me. I try to es- tablish from the first play that I'm the better player. Offe nsi ve lineman never get a lot of attention, ex- cept for the nega- tives that come from fans when a holding penalty calls back a long pass or run. Boothe doesn't let the lack of recognition bother him. "I don't expect or want a lot of publicity Boothe said. "That is for all the skill players because they score the touchdowns. Deep down, people know that you can't do anything with out the line This lack of attention for Boothe is compounded by the fact that fans aren't as familiar with him, be- cause he was be- hind Kenny Carroll at the be- ginning of the season. "I did start off on the bench and it was a little frustrating Boothe said. "I still came in and helped the team when I did play. Coach Jags put me in at left tackle and thought I could do the job well. It doesn't bother me if people still think that Kenny is start- ing.

Browning has coached in the Shrine Bowl, and has had several state cham- pionships and nationally-ranked teams. He has since moved on to be an assistant coach at North Carolina. "He's a big part of my career Richardson said. "He instilled confi- dence in me both as a player and as a student. He's a great motivator and a joy to play for definitely the best coach in the state. He gives his play- ers confidence and makes us better Browning's coaching paid off as Northern Durham made it to the state semi-finals before losing to a Fayetteville Southview team that eventually won the state champion- ship.
