TUEtfkfc January 24,1995 Vol 69, No. 69 � The East Carolinian Circulation 12,000 East Carolina University Greenville, N C 12 pases Students suspended Improper conduct results in seven fraternity suspensions Laura Jackman Staff writer Seven members of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity were suspended from school in December by the Of- fice of the Dean of Students for in- volvement in an activity in which ECU student Brennon Bohol was in- jured. Five men were suspended for a semester and two men were sus- pended for a year. On Oct. 26, Bohol was injured when all nine members of the pledge class were bound, causing bruises to his ribs. Although neither the ECU or Greenville police became involved and no one was arrested, the ECU administration became involved be- cause "students accused of hazing will appear before the Student Honor Board said Dean of Stu- dents Ronald Speier. However, the process did not get that far. "There were over 500 cases requiring judicial attention for vari- ous campus violations in total last semester and the system allows for some to settle through other com- mittees, which is what happened in our case said Rodney White, Al- pha Phi Alpha area director and adviser. "All men involved were held accountable Although most men in the fraternity will not speak about the incident, in- cluding Presi- dent Demetrius Carter (who said he "instructed the members of my fraternity not to speak about whatever mamm- happened"). two men spoke publicly last December with Shanai Harris of WITN and then, along with a few other Alpha members, to The East Carolinian. Alpha Phi Alpha member Leondus Farrow said Bohol claimed "his ribs were bruised and that his doctor ordered him to stay in bed a "All I know is that I was a pledge and few weeks, but within two days he was at the football (Homecoming) game and a step show "The young man who got in- jured said that his parents wanted him to press criminal charges against us. but he didn't because he said he told them it was an acci- dent Farrow said. "The point is, we didn't bruise his ribs. Nobody beat him or bruised him. We don't know how he got his ribs bruised, we think the pledges fell on him. When asked why seven students were sus- pended despite the fact that the incident is being termed an accident. White said: "There were different levels and circumstances involved White said. Farrow, who was suspended See SUSPEND page 3 It's snowing! r now I'm not. - Andree Taylor Greenville experienced its first snow of the year yesterday.

The TV was stolen from William's arena sometime last weekend, and police have no leads in the case. The television was valued at $500 and will probably be replaced ECU lost more than a basket- . ball game after the Jan. 14 dedica- tion of the newly renovated William's arena. A 19-inch color Ze- nith television was stolen from an u p;r concourse on the north side, sometime between 8 p.m. Saturday night and 9 a.m. Monday morning, police reports stated. "Certainly we weren't expect- ing it said Henry VanSant, asso- ciate athletic director. "We regret that this sort of thing would hap- pen, and we regret that our secu- rity - and I'm not talking about public safety, I'm talking about se- curity of the building - was not adequate to keep that kind of thing from happening VanSant said plans are under- way to tighten security in the arena. "We're certainly doing what we can to make sure the building can be secured VanSant said. Around 28 television moni- tors enhance the new arena. The stolen television was valued at $500 and will more than likely be re- placed, said Tom Doyle, director of athletic video.

The BOC planned to vote on the measure in November, but the vote was cancelled without explanation. The amendment has not been brought to a vote in the two subsequent meetings of the BOG and has not been re-sched- uled. The proposed amendment which was passed by the BOG's Non-Discrimi- nation Committee in October, also ex- tends protection from discrimination based on age and or handicaps, as well as sexual orientation. The amendment has come un- der fire from former Governor Jim Mar- tin, said A Keith Dyer, president of the Association of Student Governments and a member of the board of gover- nors. Dyer, an ECU undergraduate, is the only student who serves on the BOG. In a Jan. 12 article of UNC's Daily Tar Heel Martin said he was seeking clarification of the term sexual orien- tation Martin did not return TEC's phone calls. "Any allusions to bestiality or necrophilia really dodge what this leg- islation is about" Dyer said. "This amendment to the code sends the right message - no one should be discrimi- nated against because of their sexual preference, there does not seem to be any argument for the opposition to stand on ECU is one of 11 schools within the UNC system which already has a non-discrimination policy which in- cludes coverage regarding sexual ori- entation. "We've had a non-discrimination policy since I got here in '81. Last spring we revised our policy to include sexual orientation said ECU's equal employ- ment officer. Dr. Mary Anne Rose. While the measure has come under fire from the former governor, some BOG members are optimistic about the amendment's chances.

Drimari Andy Turner Staff Writer For students and others inter- ested in learning more about North Carolina, the North Carolina Literary Review (NCLR) provides readers with insight into the literature, history and culture of North Carolina. "What we are trying to do is look at historical and contemporary culture and literature in a broad context pre- sented in a way that serious readers, and not necessarily academic special- ists, will enjoy reading and learning about the regions and culture (of North Carolina) said Alex Albright, editor of NCLR. NCLR was begun by Dr. Keats Sparrow, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences in 1992. The magazine comes out about every 10 months with the next issue scheduled to come out in March. It is put out by the ECU English department and the North Carolina Literary and Historical Asso- ciation. The magazine recently received praise from the Council for Editors of Learned Journals. NCLR was awarded the Best New Journal Award. "That was a real nice award Albright said. "It was good for the uni- versity and the department. It speaks well, I think, of what we have been try- ing to do Albright said NCLR does not normally accept unsolicited material from writers. "We are not really looking for open submissions, we publish thematic sections Albright said. "We are inter- ested in proposals or queries from any- body, but our staff is too small to handle a lot of unsolicited manuscripts. "We have published graduate, undergraduate students from here (ECU) as well as professional writers from all over the world Albright feels the NCLR helps to promote the eastern part of North Carolina by informing readers about its past and present. "I like a magazine that is read and appreciated and helps people real- ize particularly how important the east- ern part of the state is to the rest of the state and region Albright said. Albright said the design of the magazine makes it different from schol- arly journals. "I think the way we are able to bring design, the way we mix design with content, that makes it a real unique publication, much more like a magazine than a journal, primarily because of excellent design by the School of Art, which has won 14 de- sign awards Albright also credited success of the magazine to associate editors John Patterson and Bertie Fearing along with student interns and graduate as- sistants.

Earthquake casualties climb (AP) - Powerful aftershocks rocked buildings and shattered glass in Kobe Monday, and last week's deadly earthquake sent new shock waves through Japan's political and financial establishment The death toll from Tuesday's quake climbed k. 5.060, with 102 people still listed as missing, national police said. More than 26,284 people were injured and 300,000 left homeless in Japan's deadliest quake in more than 7u years. Winter storms sweep through country (AP) - A new Pacific storm snarled Southern California traffic Mon- day with mudslides and water, and snow caused scattered school closings yesterday across parts of the South. Ohio had snowdrifts as high as eight feet after a stormy weekend. A winter storm warning was in effect for Southern California through Tuesday with up to eight inches of rain possible in the mountains, along with two feet of snow above 2.000 feet, the National Weather Service said. A mudslide today blocked part of the Pacific Coast Highway in Santa Monica, and on Sunday a rock slide killed two tourists on the beach in La Jolla. Police today reported scores of stalled cars and spinouts. In northern California, nearly three inches of rain fell in 24 hours in the Sacramento Valley, and heavy snow was possible in the Sierra Nevada. In the Southeast, six counties in northern Georgia closed schools this morning because of snow. Barefoot space shared by cupola Jeffrey Lee Staff Writer Mention the Bell Tower and North Carolina State comes to mind, the Old Well and it's Carolina. Men- tion the Cupola and nothing comes to mind. Facilities Planners are hop- ing for a little more name recognition as plans for the Cupola, a symbol of East Carolina's past and future, swing into high gear. The Old Austin Cupola sat atop the Herbert Austin building that, in 1908, was the first major academic fa- cility on campus. The Cupola stood 24 feet above the apex of the Austin building and, for years, was the high- est point in Greenville. "This particular cupola replaces symbolically the cupola that was on the old Austin building which was a symbol of the university for years and years said Richard Brown, Vice-Chan- cellor of Business Affairs. "Its a re- production of one and a half to two times larger than the original After tossing around the idea of placing the Cupola by the new rec- reation center and other sights, offi- cials, including SGA President Ian Eastman, decided on the Mall. "This will be a place where a string quartet could perform, a small band or place to just gather and talk Brown said. Six months from the start of construction, the project is expected to take six months to complete. The Cupola will stand 30-35 feet tall and will be visible from all buildings on campus as well as Fifth Street provid- ing the community and visitors an instantly recognizable landmark. Facilities Planners have also taken steps to spoil the hopes of would be vandals once the project is complete. "Lighting and material selec- tion will be the focus in deterring vandalism said Facilities Planner Bruce Frye. The Cupola will have a masonry exterior that will allow for the removal of spray paint and will be very well lit at all times. ECU students that fear con- certs and Barefoot on the Mall will be affected by this new structure can relax. "I believe the Cupola will add to the Mall, it will give another for- mal permanent location, things can occur around it, in it, but it's far enough off the center of the Mall that it will not interfere with the band shell Brown said. The $223,900 project was en- tirely funded by private donations from two families, trustee Bill Furr and family from Denver, N.C. and the Lewis Weil family from Goldsboro, N.C. Coming soon Photo by STUART WILLIAMS The Office ofhe Facilities Planned said the new recreational center is currently on schedule for completion in December. Construction employees have worked through heat and cold to erect one of the university's largest buildings yet. iT VOTE from P.i code will pass despite the apparent con- cern expressed by some of the Republi- can board members Dyer said. The amendment has become an important issue with 16 of the 32 mem- bers of the BOG coming up for re-elec- tion this year. The BOG is appointed by the state legislature, which has recently come under Republican control.

Instead, they are a part of the National Panhellenic Council which historically recog- nizes and governs African-American fraternities and sororities. As far as Batson is concerned, "the community is suffering" from the suspension of the members and the fraternity as a whole. "Alphas are very busy in the Greenville com- munity as well as nationally Batson said. "Our programs will be missed One of the programs Batson is referring to was the absence of the 12th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial. Every year prior to this, the Alphas have supported and run the program, which used to be considered the largest student-run African-American program on cam- pus. Batson also stressed the univer- sity will lose a lot of student leaders with the suspension. "You need a 2.5 GPA to get into my fraternity, higher than most other fraternities, and you are based on you leadership , schol- arship and service. The intake progress is very rigorous "And the community will miss us because we feed the hungry and clothe the naked. A lot of people are going to be missing out Batson said.

It was too good to be true. ECU spends $11.4 million to renovate Minges Coli- seum, signals the change by renaming the joint, and not three weeks goes by before someone breaks in and rips something off. One of the 27 brand-new Zenith 19-inch televisions that encompasses the upper level of Williams arena was stolen sometime after the James Madison dedication game and before 9 a.m. on Jan. 16, the day of the Pi- rates' next game. This fact will indeed only lend credibility to the no- tion, according to our friends in the Triangle (the Wolves, Dookies and UNC Baby-Blues), that we East Carolin- ians are criminally-minded troublemakers. Maybe so, but we sure are crafty little devils. Although our in-state rivals are adept at participat- ing in celebratory park bench bonfires and interscho- lastic downtown rumbles (all in good fun, of course), one or more of our very own Greenvillites has found a way to climb up and free a cable-ready gem from its lofty perch above the Williams Arena lobby, escaping unmolested to the nearest pawn shop or back to his or her home. Or maybe it was a collegiate Triangle spy working undercover in purple and gold? Nah. The safety and efficiency of this act obviously borrowed from knowledge and skills learned by taking good notes and.paying close attention in that hard-to- find physicsengineeringHow To Be a Criminal block course here at ECU. At least we can say that our school prepares us for the real world. It seems, looking back, that there could have been some kind of a top-notch security system The Club latched on the back of each TV set?) installed as part of the renovation. At least they could have put serial num- bers on them. Seriously, what we are trying to say is that the re- percussions of this rather, well, stupid act is topping the list of any ECU information heading toward the Tri- angle, and will only further damage our already-tainted reputation in the area. The opening of Williams Arena on Jan. 6 took ECU, especially the basketball programs, to another level in the collegiate world. However, we as a school need to open our eyes and recognize that we will never be looked at as scholastically and athletically on par with UNC, N.C. State or Duke if we keep shooting ourselves in the foot with actions such as this. More sex education needed Last week I watched a talk show on teenage pregnancy. One of the guests, Sherry, really shocked me. She has given birth to a child every year since she was 14 year? old. At the age of 19 she was the mother of four kids and was pregnant with another. One out of every ten girls in the United States today gives birth to a baby before reaching the age of 18. More than 500,000 of these teenag- ers struggle just to finish high school. Teen mothers without a high I school education are twice as likely to live in households receiving Aids ; to Families with Dependent Children !

With little education and a large demand for money, these young moth- ers resort to the welfare system for I economic support However, welfare I is not a chosen means of support for a few teenagers. If a job is offered they � will accept Having a baby out of wedlock as a teenager is the surest road to long-term welfare dependency. About C 50 percent of all teenage mothers are - on welfare within one year of the birth - of their first child, and 77 percent are J on welfare within five years, accord- ing to the Congressional Budget of- fice. The public costs of these births, including welfare, medical care and Angela McCullers Opinion Columnist Half of all teen moms on welfare food stamps has been estimated at $30 billion in 1994. The cost may go up this year. Teenage mothers complete less formal education than young girls without children. On average, only 5 percent of teen mothers receive col- lege degrees, compared to 47 percent of those who have children at the age of 25 or older. One Center for Population Research study found that at least 23 percent of teen mothers admitted to intentionally becoming pregnant. Most of these are unprepared for fie experience of motherhood. A very few number of teenagers have an adequate idea of what it means to be a parent. When 23 percent of these children want children we have a serious cri- sis facing our nation. One-third of the daughters of teenage mothers will go on to become teen mothers themselves. Many people think that sex edu- cation in the school systems will solve the dilemma of teenage pregnancy. I, on the other hand, do not think so. I believe that the schools cannot fight this battle alone and win. It is time for parents to step in and take on their responsibilities. There are some things that need to be taught at home, not in the school system. All parents should be respon- sible for educating their children about sex, values and morals. The best education starts in the home. Although most local school dis- tricts are free to offer sex education, a majority of students get no sex edu- cation in their schools. The high school that I gradu- ated from (Smithfield-Selma High) did not offer sex education classes at all. We had wood design classes, home economic classes and auto repair classes, but not one single sex educa- tion class. Nonschool programs seem more likely than school-based ones to cover the more controversial topics that are of most interest to teens, such as contraception, sexual decision mak- ing, values, feelings and premarital sex. Sex education is also offered through religious organizations, youth agencies, family planning clin- ics, medical schools and other orga- nizations.

(that capkiciousT IWHIMSICAU -HOUft' V BUG. Americans: Politically ignorant The American political system is broken. People are angry with their elected officials for not being respon- sive. Voters say they want change in their government The answer is deeper than many of the answer pundits give us. They talk about term limits. They give us complicated solutions like campaign finance reform. They tell us the prob- lem is the two major parties have be- come stagnant. May the answer be much simpler than we would like to admit? The problem may not be the politicians as much as it is us. Michael Kinsley tells us voters in favor of term limits are saying, "Stop me before I vote again Kinsley may have struck a glanc- ing blow at the root cause of our po- litical problems: the voters. We can- not expect elected officials to answer to an ill- informed and apathetic elec- torate. Nearly half of the adults in a 1994 poll did not even know the name of their U.S. representative. Sixty- seven percent of voters polled in a 1992 survey said television advertis- ing was their primary source of infor- mation on who to vote for. These must be the same people who Thomas W. Blue Opinion Columnist Who is your representative? wouldn't know what was funny if it weren't for laugh tracks on network television. We live in a democratic society where only half of the population votes. Elected officials will not be responsive unless we demand that they be held accountable. The Student Government Asso- ciation (SGA) is a classic example of this problem. Many students say the SGA is not responsive to our needs, yet anyone can join the organization and try to change things. There are even vacant positions because no one cares enough to apply. This student legislature spends over $150,000 of our student fees. It is unreasonable to expect SGA to look out for our needs - if we are unwilling to do it ourselves. The same point can be illustrated in local politics. Students often com- plain about the Greenville City Coun- cil. They say ordinances like the one prohibiting more than three unrelated adults from living in the same dwell- ing are unfair. However, there was not a crowd of students to represent that view when the Greenville board of adjustment dis- cussed the enforcement of the ordi- nance on January 19. Why should city government respond to students' needs if we don't bother to voice our con- cerns? We cannot expect our politi- cians, locally or nationally, to respond to us unless we demand that they do. The ordinance outlawing more than three unrelated adults from liv- ing in the same house may be enforced in the near future. The legislature may cut funding for higher education in North Carolina. Congress may not deal with many of the problems we want it to. However, people should not com- plain about these or any other prob- lems unless they are willing to get in- volved or at least informed about gov- ernment Changing our political sys- tem is an individual responsibility. We just can't afford to leave it up to the politicians. m Letters to the Editor To the Editor: This reply concerns Patrick Davis' letter in the Jan. 10th edition. I thank you for commenting, but I will stand behind my statement. Yes. I did comment "Hey Jesse Helms, you work for Bill Clinton and in the literal sense, that is incorrect, but there are many aspects of authority a President enjoys over a Senator. Don't insult my intelligence, Mr. Davis. The executive and legislative branches are a "team" of sorts, work- ing together to reform the country. Senator Jesse Helms is definitely a member of this unit, and I would con- tend in this regard he works for the Chief Executive Officer. The Presi- dent spearheads the movement to improve the country. His role is pri- mary in the public eye, and with his executive privileges (and his power to veto legislation) he has leverage over members of Congress. How picky can we get, Mr. Davis? No, look- ing at it technically, Sen. Jesse Helms doesn't work for Clinton, but come on Mr. Davis. I could write a weak letter insulting someone else's aca- demic integrity were they to make a minor snafu such as this, but what would the point be? Believe me. I don't need any "basic lessons" other than but what is offered by our fine faculty. Perhaps I rushed through the letter in my anger over Mr. Helms' idiotic remark. What I need to leam is how to deal with nit picky people who can't understand creative writ- ing. It is Helms, not I, who has a "long way to go Larry Freeman Political Science Junior The East Carolinian welcomes all Letters to the Editor.

Take it as you will. Ah, January! A chill is in the air, North Carolina begins to hold its breath for the slightest hint of snow, and the fecal stench of award shows fills the air. I don't know about anybody else, but these things have a bad tendency to make my blood pres- sure go up. Every year I let my cu- riosity get the better of me and tune in, at least for a few fateful minutes. Inevitably, something stu- pid happens (remember that disas- trous Jethro Tull win for best Heavy Metal album a few years back?), I curse loudly and quickly shut off the TV. The nominations alone are often enough to set me off. How long will it be before somebody realizes that the music of Kenny G is not good jazz? It's not just TV awards either; maga- zines make some bonehead picks themselves. For example, I recently sub- jected myself to checking out Roll- ing Stone's special awards issue. In their Readers' Choice awards, Nine Inch Nails competes with Aerosmith and Soundgarden for Best Heavy Metal Band. Excuse me? I haven't listened to metal in a long time, but I really don't think any of those bands qualify. And to make matters worse, Soundgarden won the category! I guess recycling Black Sabbath riffs pays off in the long run. Of course, the real problem is that they're comparing apples and oranges. How do you judge whether Nine Inch Nails' heavy in- dustrial rage is better than Aerosmith's last-of-the-dinosaurs sex-rock slickness, or that Soundgarden's retro-acid meanderings are the best of the three? To be fair, Rolling Stone's Critics' Choice list was a bit more on-target, with Helmet, Pantera and Metallica up for the metal crown. But I don't recall Metallica actually releasing anything in 1994, so I'm not sure why they were even considered. On a brighter note, the Goiden Globes were this past week- end, and their choices are always at least entertaining. Less politi- See BUCKET page 9 beauty through music. Red Grammer began his career as a pop-rock musician in the '70s. His entire musical outlook changed in 1981 when he was chosen to re- place Glenn Yarborough in the fa- mous folk group The Limelighters. He stayed with The Limelighters until 1990, when he and his wife Kathy decided to concentrate fully on children's music. He could not have made a bet- ter decision. While performing with The Limelighters made him famous, entertaining children has made him happy. And he has made children and their parents across the coun- try happy in return. In addition to performing his songs in live concerts and on tele- vision, Red Grammer has released three albums: Can You Sound Just Like Me?, Teaching Peace and Down the Do-Re-Mi. These albums have quickly become favorites with children and parents alike. He has made several appearances on the children's show Eureka's Castle and has his own concert special on the Disney Chan- nel. And now he's coming to ECU. There are many reasons to see this show. But the most impor- tant is the message that Red Grammer conveys. He not only be- lieves that people can remember, but he also helps them do it through his music. Give in to your "inner child Red Grammer will be performing at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 28. Tick- ets are $5 for ECU students, $6 for ECU faculty and staff and $8 for the public.

Catching another buzz Mr Review Kits Hoffler StaffWriter Editor's note: This Miy ran fa last Thursday's TEC with some print- ing errors. Today we present it again in Us correct form, Ifs not going to get better around here all at once; it comes in small pieces. The ftrcolator Coffee- house is one of those pieces. Lo- cated right next to the Park The- ater; it offers a great view of fifth Street and some of the best coffee around It's not lost the coffee that makes it great, however; the at- mosphere h stimulating and it may just help to put some culture iato this 20 bar town. The culture aspect comes in the form of live acoustic musk ev- ery Friday and Saturday night and poetry readings (featured artist and open mike) every Thursday. The Per- colator also provi&is a space for art shows: Any artist with enough mate- rial can display their works without charge for two weeks. So we have live musfei poetry and ait all in the same place. This is something Greenville has needed for a long tin. In talking with the two people that make the place vvork (Greg and Bradley), I got thorotighly educated in the good and bad of making coffee. They get their beans from an indepen- dent supplier in Durham and make sure there is very little time between roasting, grinding and brewing of the coffee to ensure optimum flavor. Cof fee beans that sit around lose flavor and that is the highest of crimes in the coffee business. Their flavored coffees are flavored after they are made, which is the only proper-way to do it The baked goods are supplied by The Uppercrust Bakery just down the street Everything in the place comes to you fresh and pretty darn tasty. Then there is what may argu- ably be die best aspect of the place, the price. The most expensive drink in the house is a Cafe Mocha at 2 dol- lars. In fact there are only two items that cost over 2 dollars and they are baked goods. These prices are especially good for the perpetually broke college crowd On the inside it is spacious with a vast variety of seating that can be shifted around for caffeine- inspired group conversations. There are also the intimate window seats that are great for watching the world go by. The Percolator's long business hours (7 am. to midnight during the week and 7-1 on weekends) can ac- cotomoaate just about anyone but the heartiest of night owls. This reviewer may sound a little over entriused, but I for one have been waiting for something like this for a long time. Kudos to The Percolator Coffeehouse, we now have an alter- native to the bar scene besides televi- sion.

Robbins fails IQ test New comedy leaves a hollow impression Ike Shibley Staff Writer The comedies of the '30s and '40s look so flawless on screen. You watch a film like His Girl Friday or Bringing Up Baby or Happened One Xight and you start to beiieve that making those films was easy. The witty, urbane dialogue and the breezy style seem effortless. Cary Grant. Katharine Hepburn, Clark Gable and Jimmy Stewart all seemed perfect in their roles, like they stepped out of life onto the screen. You might think that recapturing that style would re- quire little effort on the part of film- makers, but you would be making a hugeomistake. The most recent evidence of how difficult comedy can be comes in the form of IQ. which stars Tim Robbins, Meg Ryan and Walter Matthau. Though IQ causes no real harm, the film leaves the viewer feel- ing somehow betrayed at having in- vested time in such a hollow film. IQ tells the romantic tale of Ed (Robbins). a garage mechanic who meets Catherine Boyd (Ryan) one day at work and instantly feels an attrac- tion. When Ed visits Catherine's house to return a watch she left at the garage he discovers that Catherine's uncle is Albert Einstein (Matthau). Set in 1955 in Princeton, NJ, IQ weaves a tangled web of play- ful deceit and love while clouding the barrier between fact and fiction. When Ed meets Einstein they talk about Catherine and how Ed has fallen for her. Because Einstein does not want Catherine to marry the stuffy, uptight psychology professor to whom she is engaged, he agrees to help Ed woo Catherine. Unfortunately, Catherine will only become interested in men with intellect. Thus Einstein's challenge is to make Ed seem smart, even though Ed had trouble finish- ing high school. The ploy used by Einstein is to make Ed the author of a cold fusion paper that promises to put the Americans in front of the So- viets in the space race. The deception eventually unravels, as the plot is wont to do in a film of this sort, leaving Ed and Einstein with a lot of explaining to do. One of the big problems with IQ is the jarring mix of fact and fic- tion. The space race in'the tyaus was deadly serious to Americans at the time, but in IQ the competition is played for laughs. Also milked for laughs is the idea of plagiarism. The comedy is never broad enough to ob- viate a discussion of the serious is- sues, nor incisive enough to disarm the seriousness. Instead, an odd mix of truth and fantasy meld into an un- comfortably tart concoction. The stars all try their best. Robbins is winning as the common man. Yet the actor never makes a full character out of Ed. Instead, Robbins seems content to have him remain pleasantly amorphous with no real conviction other than winning Catherine's heart. Meg Ryan shines radiantly upon the screen, but her character is also one-sided. The film only modestly accentuates her intelli- gence but plays up her clumsiness and uncertainty. Matthau makes a great Einstein but how much the fictional- ized Einstein resembles the real one is in doubt. Einstein's three scientific friends make an odd combination who evoke the biggest laughs in the film. One scene in particular, involv- ing all four scientists left me with a huge smile. Ed agrees to allow test- ing to determine his IQ in front of an auditorium filled with people. The questions are flashed on a giant screen and Ed must answer 50 of them in 18 minutes. Einstein and friends arrange themselves in a row and each coughs, or otherwise signals, when his position (A,B,C,D or E) corresponds to the right answer. If the answer is E none of them do anything or else they try to make Catherine, who sits next to them, speak out. Though the scene made me laugh at the time, in retro- spect 1 have to wonder why no one in See IQ page 9 CD.

Well, they seem to be doing a pretty good job and show great potential on their debut al- bum. Set in Motion. This 11 song CD is filled with songs that range from being happy go lucky to melancholy and bluesy. The first song on the album happens to be the same as its title. "Set in Motion" is a very upbeat song that is filled with the power- ful vocals of singer Lori Thurman. In this song she shows her amaz- ing ability to move from vocals as smooth as silk one minute to the scratchy heartfelt abilities of Stevie Nicks in another. There is also a very big folk edge with acoustic tracks on every song.

(AP) - Maria Rodriguez was so fearful of one day being put on life support, she had a living will tattooed on her stomach. The 40-year-old nurse said she has seen enough patients and their families suffer when lives are pro- longed. "I would never want my famib' to suffer seeing me in a vegetative state, to have them mortgage their homes and go broke paying for my care she said Wednesday. The red and black tattoo fea- tures a red heart slashed with the universal "no" sign and the words "No Code The will reads: "Pain and comfort only. Organ donor It ends with her initials, "MR Rodriguez said the 'No Code' instructs hospital and ambulance workers not to resuscitate her or keep her alive by artificial means.

Indiana's living will statute re- quires the will to be dated and signed by the person writing it and two wit- nesses. Although her will doesn't meet those requirements. Rodriguez said she hopes it is respected. "I don't expect people to agree with me she said. "But this is my body, my life and my belief. And I hope they respect that" Rodriguez got the tattoo last month after suffering chest pains she attributed to a June miscarriage, job stress and Christmas. Her doctor said it was nerves. Convincing her husband of 24 years, Gilbert Rodriguez, 50, was tough, she said. "I never want to let her go he said. "But I understand Mulkey like syrup does pancakes. The drum beats provided by Dusty Edinger, who also sings on the al- bum, are simple yet strong and en- ergetic. For some reason this song makes me think of some of Natalie Merchant's past stuff, and it is a very enjoyable ballad indeed. The fourth song, "Common Ground catches you completely by surprise because Lori has been re- placed by one of the two male vo- calists in the band, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out which one it was. They never really gave him any credit. With him singing, the band has much more of a Dave Mathews feel to them. The fact that they incorporate a male singer in their band makes them much more respectable to me because they don't focus just on Thurman as their main talent. This song has many well-written harmonies in it, but after four minutes, I started to get bored. My favorite song on the al- bum is "Resolution It is another really well written ballad that has a slow beat with Lori singing her heart out about how "He doesn't know what makes me laugh He doesn't know what songs I write You don't know what I've gone through And you don't know how hard I've tried As you can see, she is talking about how her lover just doesn't know her at all, and that's why she IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT m THE REAL WORLD, SPEND A SEMESTER TN OURS.

The Shadowcaste has five members whose influences range from Led Zeppelin to Stevie Nicks. They have all known from the be- ginning what they wanted: success. In fact, they changed their name in 1992. after being known as The Barflys. and used that name to start their own record label, Barfly Records. Set in Motion was produced by John Keane who has worked with such acts as the Indigo Girls. Michael Stipe has heaped great kudos upon them, and they have toured with acts such as Toad the Wet Sprocket and The Dave Matthews Band, so maybe they are all that they claim. So, if you like bands that aren't big on repetition, but are hooked on solidity and variety. The Shadowcaste's album may be the one for you.

Not every member of the band has a famous father. Lou Segreti supplies a melodic founda- tion with his keyboard skills and then there is the guitar prodigy Smokin' Joe Bonamassa filling in the lead for the group. Smokin' Joe is the youngest of the group at the ripe old age of 17. He has been play- ing guitar since the age of five and has been jamming with some of New York's local blues bands since the age of 10. There is quite a range of influences and personalities that go into the makeup of this band. The music they produce is a fusion of many different styles, but it's most prominently Southern rock in the Allman Brothers tradi- tion.

The Associated Press, Boston Globe and Guitar World have all praised Bloodline as being a new band adding new life to an old style of rock. Bloodline has just finished their first untitled full length album on EMI records. It is a 12-track re- lease with sounds that range from heavy Southern rock to soft and twangy acoustic blues. The open- ing track "Stone Cold Hearted" is a jam sounding much like Stevie Ray Vaughn's "Crossfire The rhythm is driving and the solos are technical and flashy. The rest of the tracks follow in this format. The band lays down some very tight rhythms that are danceable and funky, and Smokin' Joe adds in much solo improvisation that seems way tof good to be the sounds of a 17-year-old. "The Storm the one instru- mental track on the CD, really shows the talent contained in this band. They alternate from jazzy to ballistic funk, and Smokin' Joe is definitely in the Joe Satriani mode with his solos. "Bad Girls" is a blues tune complete with slide guitars and a sound reminiscent of Bo Diddly. With a few exceptions most of the songs on this CD are upbeat and supported by driving funk rhythms. In the song structure and overall sound they are an Allman Brothers for the '90s, Southern rock with a hard edge. The hard edge is accentuated by the flashy leads of Smokin' Joe, whose talent is undeniable. Davis' drumming is surprisingly far from jazz most of the time; he is a rock drummer without a doubt. For such a young band they have produced some very impressive sounds, yet I think they could use some more experience, not musically, but in life. I am con- vinced that the human condition is a great force for the shaping of an artist, and anything with a major blues influence needs to be driven by the trials and tribulations of liv- ing. For example, there is no doubt that Robert Johnson and Jimi Hendrix had lived what they were playing. Bloodline are some very young bloods, they are overloaded with talent, but even the best steel must be tempered in the fire to reach its potential. I'm sure they will be around for awhile, their first album is good but not great. Just give them some time. Bloodline will be playing The Attic on Tuesday night where you can judge their talent for yourself. IQ from p. 7 that auditorium could figure out what was happening. Suspension of disbelief is necessary in a film, but IQ stretches those limits to the break- ing point and then keeps tugging. The plot becomes unnecessar- ily complex. Charles Duming plays a character whose function is never fully explained. In one scene Durning's character tells Catherine to get close to the record player in an oddly sexual way. The inclusion of Dwight Eisenhower into the plot served no purpose. The president's presence does nothing to further the plot or to help define the charac- ters. The script for IQ needed some intelligence. The directing falters too, which is unusual for Fred Schepisi, whose Roxanne is one of Steve Martin's best films. Schepisi twice employs a slow-motion shot of a motorcycle in mid-air for no appar- ent reason. The flow of the film gets interrupted by shots like this, and the seamless comedy starts to show signs of wear. The best comedies of the '40s did not need camera tricks but instead relied on the timing of their stars. A poor script, ill-advised direc- tion and stars that cannot compen- sate for the lack of the first two doom IQ. I find the situation ironic: A film titled IQ treats its audience as if it has no brains. On a scale of one to ten, IQ rates a four. BUCKET from p. 7 always at least entertaining. Less political and genre-biased than the Oscars and Emmys, the Golden Globes usually represent a clearer picture of the year in television and movies. I was pleased to see Mar- tin Landau win Best Supporting Actor for his role as Bela Lugosi in Ed Wood, for instance. But the big surprise for me was X-Files winning Best TV Drama. Up against stiff competition from such shows as ER, Picket Fences and NYPD Blue, the Fox Network's weird mysterysuspense show didn't seem to stand a chance. At first I thought it might have been a political decision, giving TV's big- gest cult show the award just to create controversy. But X-Files does things with, cameras that are un- heard of in network television (that is to say, it moves them around rather than just settling for a hand- ! . ful of standard shots) and its act- ing and scripts can stand respect- ably beside anything on the screen. So I must applaud the Golden Globes for having the guts to recognize quality wherever it lurks. But that doesn't mean any- body else out there has a clue. The Oscars, Emmys and Grammys are still to come, and while they may surprise me, I'm not holding my breath.

The Pirates controlled this game from the outset with a balanced scoring at- tack, led by Tim Basham's career-high 23 points. All five starters scored in double figures for ECU. Basham has been on a tear the last two games, scoring 20 against Rich- mond. This game was a homecoming for him; Basham grew up in Roanoke. Va. before playing his last year of high school in Maryland. "I just came out and got a couple shots Basham said. "I was just feeling it I was getting better looks against the zone This game was also a homecom- ing for ECU freshman point guard Tony Parham, who grew up in Washington D.C. Parham scored 10 points in front of a large group of family and friends. "It was a special night for me, coming back home Parham said. "You don't want to go back to your univer- sity with a loss from your hometown. I was just hoping to go in there and not turn the ball over Going into this game, the high- scoring Patriots were expected to run away with the win using head coach Paul Westhead's up-tempo strategy to their advantage. This was not the case. George Mason struggled to get good shots against the larger and taller Pi- rates, shooting a dismal 15 percent from behind the three-point arc. "It was good. Sometimes we don't jump on teams like we are supposed to Basham said. "This time we jumped on them and stuck to it" "I thought our team did a good job and played the kind of game we wanted to Pirate head coach Eddie Payne said. "We established a flow, and kept them from getting into their flow. I think, in terms of the overall game, it was big. We had some big performances - first time we had six guys in double figures Big men Chuckie Robinson and Anton Gill also played well, each scor- ing 11 points while controlling the paint defensively. Shooting guard Skipp Schaefbauer bounced back from a 1-of- 6 shooting night against Richmond by going 7-12 from the field en route to 15 points. Mason fell to 5-10 for the year and has yet to win in conference despite averaging nearly 100 points per game. "It's easier to make shots when you've won your last two, three, four or five games Westhead said. "You have to win a game first to get things going. It was just a flat game, but I also think East Carolina did a fine job. They ex- ecute well. It's a tribute to Coach Payne On Wednesday. ECU took a 69- 67 win in Williams Arena over the Uni- versity of Richmond Spiders. Point guard Tony Parham converted with 25 seconds to go to give the Pirates their first conference win of the season. "1 knew those shots were good when they left my hand Parham said. The Pirates were led by a career- high 20 points by small forward Tim Basham. including six three-pointers. "I just came in and stepped up my game Basham said. 'They were sagging down on Anton Gill) and Chuckie Robinson, so I hit my outside shot to free them up Basham scored several of his points on assists from Parham, who had a careeer-high eight assists. Leading 67-65 with a minute to go, UR's Adam Ward missed a uncon- tested layup, killing their momentum. After getting the rebound, the Pirates worked the ball inside to Chuckie Robinson, who tied the score and set- ting the stage for Parham's game win- ning shots. Defensively in the second half, the Pirates turned up the intensity by bot- tling up Kass Weaver, who scored most of his 24 points in the first half. The win was ECU'S first over Richmond since January 10,1987. ECU had lost 16 of their last 18 meetings with the Spiders, and holds an all-time record of 2345 after the game.

The senior ranks third in the nation in field goal percentage and is averaging 16.7 points per game. Swimmers win Lady hoopsters split in conference Brian Paiz Staff Writer George Mason's Lady Patriots used a 51-38 rebounding edge in posting a 64-54 victory over ECU. Junior guard Keri Chaconas led the way with 19 points for Mason, who improved to 4-10 (2-2 in the CAA). Tomeika "Fruky" Blackmon scored all of her team-high 16 points in the second half for ECU (4-9 overall. 1- 3 in the CAA). The Lady Pirates led 29-28 at the half, but could not contain Chaconas, who also had five assists. The last time the Lady Pirates had the lead was at the 16:15 mark of the second half, when Blackmon hit a eight-foot jumper. Coach Jim Lewis of George Mason switched defenses against ECU. "We always try to get our play- ers input, and our players said 'we need to play man-to-man GMU coach Lewis said. "Their guards (Charlesworth and Alpress) lit us up when we went to the zone. We did a good job in our man-to-man Another key to GMU's victory was the play of their guards. "Chaconas is an all-star Lewis said. "She can do a lot of things on the floor. I was also proud of our freshman Krista Jay. She had not practiced in 10 days due to an injury. She's a dynamite player Jay had eight points for the Lady Patriots. Cricket Pearson con- tributed eight points and 10 re- bounds off the bench. aV did sopho- more Gretchen Lacey. Coach Lewis was also very impressed with the play of ECU's Blackmon. "I am so glad to see her back from injury he said. "She gave us a lot of problems. ECU is a very young, high-octane team. They can definitely give some people prob- lems. On Friday night. Danielle Charlesworth's three-point basket with two-tenths of a second left gave the ECU Lady Pirates a 87-85 over- time win over American University. The win was the Lady Pirates first in CAA conference play. The victory broke a 16-game CAA losing streak for Coach Rosie Thompson and ECU. Sophmore Shay Hayes sent the game into over- time with two free throws, while Tomekia "Fruky" Blackmon scored nine of her 12 points for the Lady Pirates in the overtime period. Blackmon led the Pirates with 26 points and eight rebounds, and junior Danielle Charlesworth con- tributed 23 points. Justine Allpress and Tracey Kelley each had 13 points for ECU. The Lady Pirates shot 48 percent from the floor, while the Lady Eagles shot just 35 per- cent. Danielle Charlesworth The Lady Pirates will try to get back on the winnning track to- morrow night as they travel to Char- lotte to face the UNC-Charlotte Lady 49ers. Women win ninth- straight meet, men move to 6-3 Eric Bartels Staff Writer For the biggest crowd of the 1995 season in Minges Aquatic Cen- ter, the University of Richmond Spi- ders succumbed to the powerful East Carolina swim team, as the Pi- rates held a festive Parents' Week- end. Saturday marked the ninth straight victory for the Lady Pirate swimmers, as they tied the record for the longest winning streak in ECU women's swimming history. The men's team guaranteed themselves of a sixth-straight win- ning season as they improved to 2- 2 in the Colonial Athletic Associa- tion and 6-3 overall. "We swam awesome ECU swim coach Rick Kobe said. "We are ready for the CAA Championships Sandra Ossann The Lady Pirates upped their record to 9-0 on the season (4-0 in the CAA) as they had an easy time with a young Richmond team. Leading off the meet for the women's team, who crushed the Spiders 140-83, was the 400 Med- ley Relay team of Amanda Atkinson, Kim Field, Melissa Phillips and Beth Humphrey, who dominated their opponents. Lady Pirate swimmers fin- ished first in eight of the thirteen events. As always, talented junior Hilary Stokes led the meet with two victories, claiming the 50 Free and the 100 Free. Also, freshman Sandra Ossmann added two victo- ries to the Pirate point total when she took the 1000 Free, and beat out teammate Rachel Atkinson for the 500 Free. A surprising victory came from Beth Humphrey as she nar- rowly beat out teammate Jackie Schmieder by three-tenths of a sec- ond in the 200 Free.

The coach- ing staff doesn't make me feel any different The 6-foot-2 inch freshman guard from Coral Springs, Fla. is in his second year with the Pirates, and is the only walk-on on the squad.

His father Michael played at Seton Hall and has coached at Syracuse and Wichita State. Although Jerod en- joyed his father being a coach, it was difficult at times. "Sometimes it was tough, es- pecially during the season said Cohen. "When the team wasn't do- ing well, seeing people down my fa- ther and the team was hard. Cohen played two seasons of basketball at Wichita East High School in Wichita, Kansas, then transferred and earned two letters at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla. for coach Cott Cromwell. As a senior at Doi'glas, Cohen averaged 12.5 points per game and shot 40 percent from the three-point line, and was named All-Broward County and won his teams Best De- fender Award, leading his team in steals. After high school, Cohen was courted by numerous Division II and III schools, but he always knew that he wanted to play Division I hoops. "I always knew that I wanted to go to a bigger school, and ECU seemed to be the perfect fit said Cohen. "I liked the campus a lot, but most importantly was Coach Payne and his faith in me.

MASON from p. 10 Off the bench, Damond VanWeerhuizen and Vic Hamilton sparked the Pirates when they appeared sluggish. VanWeerhuizen hit a three- pointer at a key juncture in the ball game, and Hamilton's dunk and celebra- tion got the fans into the ball game. He drew a technical from referee Vic Paparo for his actions, much to the dissapointment of Hamilton's cheering section who hold up signs reading "Vi- cious Vic's Corner" whenever he scores a basket "I thought our bench did a nice job Payne said. "VanWeerhuizen, that's the best he's played in some time. Vic didn't play a lot of minutes and his line was not significant but he sparked us again. Othello played well and Von Bryant was more aggressive than he has been The Pirates next play at home against Coastal Carolina on Thursday night at 7 p.m. CHAR-GRILL HOME OF THE HAMBURGER STEAK SANDWICH Simply the Best Burgers PHONE-IN SWIM from p. 10 Phillips gave a great performance in the 200 Fly, and sophomore Lesley Hawley captured the 200 Back for the ECU. The Lady Pirate diving team was not as fortunate, failing to cap- ture victory in either the one meter or the three meter dives. Sopho- more Beth Hanna placed second in the one-meter dive, while the three- meter became an exhibition. As the Pirate men also ripped through a young and less-talented Spiders team, they evened their record and looked to this coming weeks' meets. The 400 Medley Relay team of sophomores Brian Wall, Alan Pritchett, Erik Griffin and Jay Noles produced the first of the Pirates' points. Junior McGee Moody and freshman Andy Wright finished strong as the Pirates swept the Spi- ders, 139-91. Moody was challenged by teammate James Baker in the 50 Free, but held on to win it and the 100 Free. Wright added to the Pi- rate thrashing contributing victo- ries in the 1000 Free and the 500 Free. Other top finishers were se- nior John Donovan, who collected the 200 Free, freshman Jim Broughal, who captured the 200 IM, sophomor Ryan Barlowe add- ing a victory in the 200 Fly and sophomore Chris Bembenek top- ping off the swimmers with a 200 Back win. Pirate divers struggled to overtake the Spiders behind senior Scott Kupec and freshman Stephen Barnes, as Richmond diver Jay Carroll stole both the one-meter and three-meter dives. Barnes had the better finish as he took second in the one-meter, while the three- meter dive became an exhibition.
