"I don't want to promise anybody anything because once you get in the office you have all kinds of pressures, but this agenda is definitely something I want to work on to get as many things accomplished as possible.

Eastman rebutted Stubbs goals by giving evidence against their validity. He showed TEC state legislation that would prohibit a textbook rental system at ECU. He said an academic guidance program is already present at ECU referring to an article that printed in TEC last semester titled, "Students re- ceive academic support Eastman further explained that an organiza- tion leadership group is already being formed by Lisa Shibley, di- rector of student leadership devel- opment programs and that ECU stu- dents already run television shows through public television. He cited another article in TEC about "Cue One" a student run television show.

The campingcanoe trip to Bear Island, March 18-19, was part of ECU Recreational Services Outdoor Adven- ture Program. The whale swam ashore at Hammock's Beach State Park. In an interview with TEC, group leader Rob Spurgeon sa. lie a' some other campers weu?ying on tkc beach March 19, when a park ranger pulled up asking for their help. There was a beached whale down the beach, and the ranger was unable to contact any help by radio. The group readily agreed and crammed into the back of the pickup. "This was like big-time pursuit. There was absolutely no more room in this truck and we were going down the beach about 50 mph said Spurgeon. Over a mile down the beach, they reached the eight ft 900 lb. baby See WHALE page 3 Follow the leader!

Greeks hash out problems Photo by JACK SKINNER Chancellor Eakin addresses members and inductees of Omicron Delta Kappa, national leadership honor society, at the induction ceremony held Sunday at the amphitheater. Laura Jackman News Writer In an effort to promote unity and to focus on problems within the Greek system, the Interfraternity Council (1FC) and the Panhellenic Council are inviting all Greeks to an open forum in Hendrix Theater. At 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 29, each of the 17 fraternities and nine sororities on campus will have two min- utes to speak about issues affecting the Greek community. "The focus of Wednesday night is to address some problems the Greek system has and to find solutions for them said IFC Sec- retary Reid Griffin. "We want to have more Greek unity and that's why we're doing this Instead of working separately from each other, the two councils are planning on working together from now on. "I think the forum will provide dialogue between the men's and women's groups so that in the future we can plan more things together said Panhellenic Adviser and Assis- tant Dean of Stu- dents Laura Sweet The idea for the forum was gen- erated after the IFC saw some prob- lems within the sys- tem that needed addressing. According to Griffin, those prob- lems include: a lack of attendance at events, a push for higher rush turnouts and the problem with rush dates coinciding with the at- traction of downtown to prospective "It's not going to be about Greek- bashing at all, it's about finding solutions and helping each other out � Justin Conrad IFC President rushees. "It's not going to be about Greek- bashing at all. it's about finding solu- tions and helping each other out" said IFC President Justin Conrad. During the allotted two minutes of time, each organizations' president or another delegated representative will have the opportunity to talk about issues that have helped them grow in- dividually or anything else that might be of importance to the system as a whole. "1 think it will be a good activity and it will provide time for us to ad- dress the strengths and weaknesses of the Greek system so that we can take that information and use it in positive ways said Sweet "Doing events like tiiis will help bring Greeks together to work on a common goal said Griffin. Both councils are hoping the first step towards that goal will be a high Creek attendance on Wednesday night. "It will be really helpful to have the entire Creek community there to talk about the positive things we need to do for the future Conrad said. �1 Ur&y!e )9teide Venter's gets a down-home thumbs uppage OP! tueacUify Where's the money for the real heroes?page lrates defend tournament titlepage 9 Tuesday Sunny 'pvtecttet High 65 Low 48 Wednesday Sunny High 69 Low 40 Phone 328 - 6366 Fax 328 - 6558 The East Carolinian Student Publication Bldg. 2nd floor Greenville, NC 27858 Student Pubs Building;across from Joyner th . 2 ���111 ' ' "l'l-��glliw� Tuesday, March 28, 1995 The East Carolinian hattin vit&t6e g hancellor Students walk for special cause On the failed bond referendum "I was disappointed with the outcome of the bond vote in that I had hoped the voters would see fit to provide these moneys for the schools of Pitt County On acquiring the Eppes property "We, as the university, still have a very strong interest in acquir- ing the Eppes property. $6 million is what we have available Eakin said Board of Trustee members say the offer will stand good until their next meeting on May 5.

According to Gluckman, the idea to have the walk-a-thon came from Gamma Beta Phi member Krystal McKinney, who has been doing work with the Special Olympics for some time. "We had between 45 and 50 people participating said Tammy Putzier, member of Gamma Beta Phi and one of the participants.

Students get into political science Laura Jackman News Writer With politics in the public eye as the new election year approaches, the political science department is using this time to get students in- volved in important political issues. At 10 a.m. on Friday, March 17, Carol Swain, a professor at Princeton University, spoke to approximately 80 members of the faculty and student body about issues that she believes are important to political campaigns and party affiliations. "Swain was invited by myself and Dean Sparrow of the College of Arts and Sciences said Dr. David Conradt, chair of the political science department. "She is very important to the study of political science Swain addressed topics such as district realignment, affirmative ac- tion, the African-American power in Washington and Democratic trends in office during past elections. Swain believes that "re- districting alone can not be held ac- countable" for the 1994 Democratic loss in Congress. She said that other things such as voter anger and Presi- dent Clinton's standing at the polls are to blame. Swain also informed her audi- ence about trends in voter turnout. "No Republican incumbent lost at the state or federal level, that's very unusual she said. Swain went on to say that "1994 was not a good year for African-American politicians" be- cause the African-American turnout was lower then than it was in 1992.

"We're interested in students being on top of those policies that the legislators are passing that af- fect them so that they can be wise users of the resources that are avail- able said Dr. Dorothy Muller, dean of undergraduate studies. In 1993 the North Carolina Leg- islature mandated that students who take more than 140 credit hours will be charged an additional 25 percent in tuition fees. "For instate students - that's an amount, it's not nearly so scary as for out-of-state students said Muller. ECU administrators have tried to make this clear to students by dis- tributing pamphlets to faculty mem- bers, printing an ad in last Thursday's The East Carolinian, and mentioning the subject during freshman orientations. Last falls transfer and freshman student will be the first to be ef- fected by this new legislation, said Caroline Ayers of the Academic Af- fairs office. "We spent some time in each of the orientation sessions this past summer.mentioning it to studentsthat we're trying to make sure that they haven't forgotten Muller said. "We want them to avoid having a monetary addition to their tuition Courses that are dropped, failed or transferred also count, with the exception of 98 or more transfer hours. Transfer students must take thirty hours from ECU and there- fore only 98 transfer hours apply, Muller said. "For freshman though, they won't feel the affect until they've reached the 140, so the first people who will feel the effect of the sur- , charge are the transfer students Muller said. "Hopefully we can do a good job in helping them review their records and make the best use of their time AP courses taken in high school, higher placements such as in foreign languages or mathematics and other special courses are exempt from the surcharge, as well as summer school. "And courses taken at a UNC-sys- tem school during the summer don't count summer school at East Carulina or any of our sister institu- tions in the UNC-system do not count Muller said. emphasize UNC-system schools because right now the law states that if that stu- dent went to a private college or to a community college, those hours would count Students attempting to earn a second undergraduate degree will be liable for additional charges after 110 percent of their additional required hours have been exceeded. "Their purpose, was not to be punitive; they are trying to encour- age students to graduate in four years Muller said. "One of the nice things is that if the student does graduate in tour years it doesn't mat- ter how many hours the student has Muller said the legislature is try- ing to keep students from staying in school longer in order to cut costs. The state of North Carolina pays $6,542 for each in-state student per year in supplementing education. "Even though you pay tuition, we are still a state supported school and they provide a lot of finding and a great deal of tuition assistance Another mandate set forth by the legislature is a requirement that students average 15 hours per semes- ter by '97, Ayers said. "This mandate says that we should have our students averaging at least 15, we don't average that right now Muller said. "Our average course load in 1993 was 14.85 hours per student they're looking at the average course load for full-time students VJ A from page 1 senate meetings to SGA Vice Presi- dent Sheila Boswell and that he serves only on the Course Drop Ap- peals Committee. He said the com- mittee met three times: the first time Eastman was not on the com- mittee, he attended the second meeting and the third meeting was held during Christmas vacation and he was therefore unable to attend. Eastman said Treasurer Michael Carnes was delegated to the Parking and Traffic Committee, and Eastman took over after the vote to increase parking sticker prices was passed. Eastman has filed a complaint against Stubbs for publishing mis- leading and untrue information. Stubbs will face the honor board this week, a board she believes is biased because Eastman appointed some of the students who will hear her case. Eastman said that is untrue, he said he only appointed the attor- ney general to her position after a recommendation from advisor Dr. Ronald Speier, dean of students and other positive recommenda- tions.

"We run on issues, not negativity As president of SGA, Eastman has installed a tuition payment plan, deducted $11 from student fee increases, helped to determine high risk areas for the installation VANDAL from page 1 "I heard nothing he said.

The hole was formed by the receding tide slowly washing the sand away from under its body. "The hole was about half a foot deepwe couldn't just slide her out with a big wave Spurgeon says. No one was sure what to do, and the ranger thought of the idea to roll it over out of the hole. "We had to roll her a complete roll so we didn't leave her upside down on her blowhole, so she could breathe Spurgeon says. There were two big problems with moving the whale beyond its sheer size. First, the gray and white whale had a very slick skin texture. Secondly, her prone position offered little to grip. "No one knew if they were going to hurt the whaleor how to grab it Spurgeon recalls. "wp mostly got the guys and a couple girls Spurgeon says. The campers waited for big waves to wash in for some buoyancy, and after five unsuccessful tries, they rolled it out of the hole. "The first roll was just incredibly hard, but once out, on the second half of the roll, she'd be coming around and you could grab her dorsal fin and side flippers said Spurgeon. Everyone then joined in to keep the whale rolling. The campers would wait for the right waves, roll her a few times and stop, then wait again. Waves broke on the whale constantly, and some people helped keep her steady, while others rubbed her to keep her wet and calm. According to Spurgeon, she seemed passive, as if she knew they were helping her; however, she would dangerously flap her tail in occasional bursts of energy. Once the group reached knee deep water, it wasn't necessary for all "We saw her come up and blow air a couple times then she disappeared. Right before she took off, she was almost gasping for air. Spurgeon 10 campers to participate, and some came ashore. With the water depth, the whale could be more easily slid across the bottom. Crashing waves pushed the whale back, but the camp- ers countered it "We were edging her out real slow, it took forever says Spurgeon. "We got her to a point where her body ran parallel to the beach - she wasn't �, pointed to the deep water In thigh- deep water, she was able to kick off with her tail; how- ever, she was disori- ented. Spurgeon was chest-deep, directly over top of the whale, when he was shot in the face point-blank with a burst of air from M her blowhole. "I saw directly inside of it It was a slit that opened fully into a square shape, and it was all pink inside like somebody's mouth In the final stage of the rescue, only Spurgeon and Ashley Bames were guiding the whale, in an attempt to direct her towards deep water. They pushed her nose toward the deep, and eventually she lunged out in one great fluid movement "We saw her come up and blow air a couple times then she disap- peared. Right before she took off, she was almost gasping for air said Spurgeon. Back on the beach, the campers were ecstatic, yelling "Free Willy and making jokes. "There was a whole lot of emotion there. I'll probably never have a chance to do something like that again. We totally saved that whale's life The whole rescue is estimated by Spurgeon to be 15 to 25 minutes. "It seemed like an eternity Those campers involved with the saving of the whale are: Rob Spurgeon, Ashley Bames, Joanna Clark, Chris Whitaker, Herb Zimmerman, Dora Faircloth, Mike Counselman, Michelle Dzendzel, Jeff Jackson and Christine Tyndall. "We all had to de-individualize and work together as a unit Spurgeon s?ys. The Adventure Program camp- ingcanoe trip to Hammock's Beach began in Swansboro on March 18. Departing from there, the students canoed two hours through a shallow salt marsh on a designated trail tak- ing them across the Intercoastal Wa- terway to Bear Island. Once on the deserted barrier is- land off the coast they hiked to their campsite and enjoyed the run of the island. "It is the most beautiful sun- set in North Carolina.

Tuesday, March 28,1995 The East Carolinian Our View With Mike Tyson free from jail on Saturday after serving a four year sentence for raping Ms. Black America contestant, Desiree Washington, both boxing fans and sports enthusiasts will await his first prize fight Obviously in great physical condition, Tyson will make his comeback with his former manager, Don King. However, we atT�C believe that in one fight, he will accrue more money than all of the department chairs' salaries at ECU combined, and that is preposterous. We ztTEC believe that too many of the today's athletes are asking for too much money to compete in sports which ath- letes 20 years ago (sorry auto racing) were never able to accrue more than a million dollars a year. It is unfair to those in the job fields of education and ad- ministration (our professors, chancellors, etc.) who do not re- ceive such extraordinary salaries, because they are the people who build our futures and mold us as independent thinkers in a democratic society. The fact is tfyat Tyson will face one formidable opponent, after being released, and will make any easy $100 million or more in his first fight What does that say about America and our commitment to education? Our university, especially with the rocky split of the com- munication department a year ago, seems to regularlly present a school permeated with innertension. The need to advance our school as a formidable institution in the state of North Carolina has always been a goal and a commitment of our ad- ministration. But with a limited budget compared to Carolina or State, money allocated for different departments has lately turned into a struggle. Take into account the salaries of both professors and the administration, many will never amass the amount of money a baseball player nets in a year (except if he is on strike, of course). There has to be some sort of middle ground, where if Mike Tyson pummels his first opponent in the first round of his first match back, he should receive only 40 percent of his earnings while the other 60 goes toward education. Yes, an education. An education that he didn't have as he was growing up, because maybe education would have prevented Tyson from ever being in that situation with Miss Washington in the first place. But why are America's athletes asking for so much cash to line their pockets? Do they really deserve it? It is definitely hard to analyze because each sport has different stakes, and the difference remains in each sport's average career. Understandably, for the amount of punishment that a foot- ball player receives compared to the mechanics of an average baseball player, there should be no comparison for a pay scale. First of all, the money rewarded to people involved in foot- ball should be far greater because of the shorter career span (four years), while baseball players can play forever (i.e. Nolan Ryan). Unfortunately, sports salaries far exceed there total limit in all sports. The money should go to those people that educated the Deion Sanders of the world. We as students should be thankful for our professors, be- cause we will be in their position someday (if not already) as we' will have the ability to shape minds and sculpt free thinkers. Mike Tyson is a convicted rapist who makes millions of dollars in the blink of an eye (or the blackening of an eye ). But what about the champions of the education field, who are the true role models? They work for their money, but that money is scarce, and not comparable to athletes' bank accounts! Letters to the Editor To the Editor. Holding the office of Student Body President is an experience like no other you could hope to have as a student One day you are going to classes like everyone else, the next day you are elected to office, handed a salary, an office, and thrown into a whirlwind of speeches, meetings, pub- lic appearances, and big decisions that will affect the whole university. You can easily be overwhelmed by these responsibilities and the en- joyable perks;however, one can de- velop a false feeling of self-importance. As a responsiblePresident, you must do your best to serve the student body and then move on. It can be quite tempting when you are on top to want a second term, but you must show the maturity of the leaders before you, and realize you would only be serv- ing yourself anddenying some other capable students, This is a rare honor which they have only four years to strive for. No matter what excuse you may consider running for another term, the next president can carry on your agenda, just as effectively. The real reason can only lead back to you and not the student body. That is why we now call upon you, Ian Eastman, to show the same deference which was passed along on your behalf. Step aside, concentrate on eventually graduat- ing, and allow the presidency to serve the students of this university. Be remembered as another president who did his job, and not one who was so self-involved he couldn't let go. - Scott Thomas, SGA president '8788; Tripp Roakes, SGA president '8990; Allen Thomas, SGA president '9091; Alex Martin, SGA president '91'92; Courtney Jones, SGA presi- dent '9293; Keith Dyer, SGA presi- dent '9394 To the Editor: The time has come for the stu- dent body of ECU to elect an SGA President I was fortunate enough to have served as SGA Speaker and on various committees within student government and over the years 1 worked with many outstanding SGA Presidents, people like Tripp Roakes, Allen Thomas, Alex Martin, Courtney Jones, and Keith Dyer. I also knew Ian Eastman. Mr. Eastman has one, and only one, reason for wanting to be SGA President himself! He will say any- thing to get elected and make prom- ises he knows he can't keep to get your vote. It's not about helping you and I, the students of ECU, it's about helping himself. As IFC President Mr. Eastman drove that organization into finan- cial debt and SGA (your money) had to bail him out I was SGA Appro- priations Chairman when this hap- pened, so I know. As SGA President he has abused his position, using SGA funds (your money), to buy a laptop computer, pager, and other perks. As a former SGA member I am appalled that Ian would even have the nerve to ask the students of ECU to re-elect him after he has grossly misused the position of SGA Presi- dent. There is only one thing you can count on about Ian Eastman, he will always lookout for himself first any- one that has known him for any length of time will tell you that.

In her campaign for SGA President she has succeeded in mimicking the pitiful, dirty world of actual politics. In a weak attempt to dethrone and discredit a president who has accom- plished more than the last 3 SGA presidents combined, Janet has side- stepped all issues, viciously attacked her opponent with false propaganda, and while working so hard on this ill- tempered campaign, she has neglected many duties she is responsible for. For her campaign, she has made several promises: 1. An ECU TV sta- tion; there is a station now. in its sec- ond season. 2. Council of Student Organizations; we already have one, in the office of leadership develop- ment 3. Textbook rental program; an issue candidates have run on (and failed) in the past. Due to the Umstead Act, it is not legal to have such a system. I guess Janet is just misinformed. Janet also is attempting to mis- inform the student body. She is mak- ing accusations that the current SGA President hasn't done anything posi- tive since taking office. Thanks to Ian Eastman, the current SGA President we now have 24 hour computer labs during exams, and tuition payment plan. He serves on committees such as the Athletic Director Search Com- mittee. He is also the only SGA Presi- dent to succeed in lowering student fees. Ian Eastman has proven himself. Janet says she will work hard for us. Can we believe her? I think not. She serves as Panhellenic Rush Chairper- son. She, being in charge of rush, missed a workshop she was supposed to direct, leaving all in attendance hanging! Why? She was to busy work- ing on her campaign. Janet also serves as SGA Student Welfare Chair- person. This should be by far the most active committee on campus. Have you heard of any bills passed or reports from this committee lately? I don't think so. Janet is too busy trying to com- pensate for her lack of ability by talk- ing negatively about a president who has done, and will continue to do, more positive things than she can imagine. Scott Gibson Senior Environmental Health To the Editor: I am writing in regard to the campaign for the SGA Presidency. The Student Government Association has done a fine job during the past academic year under the leadership of President Ian Eastman. In the past year, 1 have seen a greater change in policy of this institution as a direct result of Eastman's leadership than in any of my two previous years as a student. In the past it seems that the SGA has been a body all unto itself, separated from the university and its students. During this past year I have seen a greater deal of student involve- ment in the SGA and the campus as a whole. Ian has changed ECU Stu- dent Government to serve the needs of its students. Hardly a week goes by in which I don't read an article in The East Carolinian that contains some change in University policy as a direct result of the SGA and Ian's leadership. Several examples include the change in tuition payment that allows us to pay monthly, an increase in funding for the fin arts organiza- tions (Marching Pirates, Gospel Choir, ECU Playhouse and The Gray Art Gallery) and improvements in campus security. The choice is now ours. In a few weeks, we will have to select the course of this institution's future. Do we revert to the SGA of old, or do we keep the school in its present course towards excellence. The choice is easy. Ian Eastman has charted this new course and we would do well to entrust his leader- ship for another year. J. Scott Leandro Junior Political Science To the Editor: The purpose of this letter is to provide Ian Eastman with my full sup- port in his bid for reelection as SCA President. Mr. Eastman is a proven leader who has taken on everyone - including the administration - in his efforts to enrich the campus life for all students at East Carolina Univer- sity. He has many accomplishments from his first year as President that have improved the college experience for us all. Under Mr. Eastman's di- rection, we now have a medium that will allow us to pay our tuition bills on a monthly payment schedule. This option will be available to the stu- dent body beginning next fall, and will reduce the headache of being required to pay for our education all at once. He has also made being a stu- dent less costly. During this academic year, Mr. Eastman facilitated a reduc- tion in student fees by 19, saving students over $171,000. At a time when the trend is to increase student fees to underwrite university projects, we need someone to lead us who has our best interests at heart, and has a proven track record in this area. Another success of Mr. Eastman's term has been the estab- lishment of 24-Hour Study Areas during exams. Currently, Mr. Eastman is also pushing the concept of 24-Hour Computer Labs during the last two weeks of every semes- ter. These innovations to student life will allow students the opportunity to fulfill their academic needs while meeting their other responsibilities. In addition, Mr. Eastman has given his full support to graduate stu- dents. He fully understands the dif- ferences between undergraduate and graduate education, and has been equally supportive of both. He is very attentive and attuned to the needs of all students here at East Carolina Uni- versity, and progressively attempts to improve this campus with his efforts. In conclusion, we would be miss- ing out on a lot if we did not reelect Ian Eastman as our SGA President He has proven to the student body that his proposed policies are in best interests. He has fought against tu- ition and student fees increase as well as increases in parking permit costs. The students of East Carolina Univer- sity need the leadership and vision that Ian Eastman brings to the SGA Presidency, and we should support him in his efforts to be reelected. Shaw D. West Graduate Student Body President To the Editor: I am writing to support the nomi- nation of Penn Crawford for SGA Trea- surer. I have had the experience to witness Mr. Crawford's dedication of several fronts including the SGA, and I believe that his dedication is what is needed to fulfill the responsibilities of the SGA Treasurer. Mr. Crawford has served both as Secretary and as a legislator for the SGA where he served more than ably on the Appropriations Committee. Experience is no stranger to him, and he is known for his fiscal conserva- tism. More importantly, Mr. Crawford has shown time and again that he will fight for the best interests of his fel- low students. Earlier this semester, Mr. Crawford left for Raleigh in the wee hours of the morning to protest the General Assembly's efforts to raise tuition while the other candidates for Treasurer remained in Greenville. This episode is a clear example of his commitment to the students of East Carolina University. Also, in order to provide students with some protec- tion from increasing college ex- penses, he wants to piace caps on student fees. In conclusion, Mr. Crawford has shown that he is an ally of the un- dergraduate student, but clearly un- derstands the value of graduate stu- dents to the diversity of this campus. He is not a resume politician, and firmly believes in his ideas and opin- ions. It is rewarding to know that we have a fresh face with fresh ideas with which to lead the students of East Carolina University into the fu- ture. We can all look forward to the day Penn Crawford is elected as our SGA Treasurer. Shawn D. West Graduate Student Body President '� To the Editor: As last year's Panhellenic Presi- dent I have had the opportunity to work with many campus leaders. I have learned to respect individu- als such as Janet Stubbs and Maureen McKenna who sacrifice their time and efforts in service to the school and fellow students. I have been involved with Janet Stubbs in many aspects of campus life, and can say that she has a genuine concern for the students of this institution. She is currently Junior Class President. Co-Chair of the Student Welfare Committee, and Rush Chair for Panhellenic. Janet has been elected to many leadership positions, therefore it is obvious that I am not the only per- son who shows confidence in her abilities. Maureen McKenna is currently Junior Class Vice-President, Co- Chair of the Student Welfare Com- mittee, involved in many Honor Fra- ternities, and is now my successor as Panhellenic President. She has already showed initiative in leading our organization in a responsible and professional manner. She is an excellent example of student and leader and is definitely a person that I would trust in controlling a budget as large as the SGA's. I have confidence in Janet and Maureen not because of what I have heard, but what I have seen. If you take the time to read Janet and Maureen's "Agenda for Change the first words you will see are, "No PromisesJust Progress I strongly encourage you to Vote JANET STUBRS for SGA Presi- dent and MAUREEN MCKENNA for SGA Treasurer!

LOS ANGELES AP) - Ah. March, when Hollywood's fancy turns to thoughts of self-love. The month that opened with the Grammys and closed with last night's Oscars has become an awards orgy, with no sub-group too humble to shower itself with statu- ettes, trophies, plaques and obe- lisks. The screenwriters, directors and producers each had their glitzy galas this month. So did the film editors - not to be confused with the cinema editors, who also had awards. Also honored this month: youth in film, lifetime achievement in film, independent film. Western film and film promotion. There was even a ceremony for entertainment figures who helped advance animal issues. Does anyone actually care about the more than 60 awards shows throughout the year? And does anyone actually win besides Tom Hanks? "I think the strain is showing now. People just aren't that inter- ested said Mark Crispin Miller, au- thor of the bock Seeing through Movies. "There's a certain hollowness to the whole process Even insiders acknowledge the field is getting overcrowded. "The shows themselves begin to cheapen each other said Hal Kanter. who has written for 26 Academy Awards shows. The Academy folks turn up their noses at the likes of the Soap Opera Digest Awards, Premiere's Readers Poll Awards, Digital Holly- wood Awards and Television Movie Awards, not to mention the People's Choice Awards or the Sat- urn Awards honoring science fic- tion films. Miller, a professor of media studies at Johns Hopkins Univer- sity, said declining public interest has spurred an awards boom that accelerated in the last 10 to 15 years. "As people become more blase, it becomes more and more impera- tive to try to capture attention with some new fuss or another he said. "Anything to stoke the waning mass interest, to even vaguely (stir) interest for 10 seconds. Anything to rev up the marketing machine. It's very depressing Kanter attributes the prolifera- tion to a lack of imagination by in- dustry executives seeking to boost movie revenues. But he also thinks the boom reflects a genuine public appetite that is borne out by the ultimate arbiter, television viewership. Ken Ehrlich, the producer of 14 Grammy shows, agrees. "Stars do something most of us can't, and the recognition they get seems to touch something for the people who are watching said Ehrlich, who in June will produce the first Blockbuster Entertain- ment Awards honoring film, home video and music. "People really do like these shows he said. The producer of the Academy Awards show, Gilbert Cates, said television ratings will decide which shows survive. Cates' Oscars have delivered healthy ratings recently, after with- ering in the mid-1980s. Last year the Oscars show was watched in 29.3 million households, the sec- ond-best showing ever. But television ratings compiled by the A.C. Nielsen Co. show a steep slide for both the Grammys and the Emmys. The Emmys' audience plunged from 20.2 million homes in 1986 to 13.9 million last year. Viewership nose-dived when the program switched from NBC to newcomer Fox in 1987. Kanter. the Academy Awards writer, feels that the TV audience isn't going anywhere. "Anything connected with Hol- lywood he said, "people tune in to sneer or to jeer Bucke 1 Drop in the Bucket" is just what it claims to be: a very tiny drop in the great screaming bucket of American media opinion. Take it as you will. Ike Shibley Staff Writer 1 call it label mania. MPAA rating labels on films. FDA labels on food. Labels to warn and inform. Labels designed to provide a pub- lic service. Labels, labels, labels. Labels on movies serve the pur- pose of informing parents about the violence and pornography content of a particular piece of art. But this la- beling system has been abused. En- tertainment Weekly recently ran a scathing attack on the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) Rat- ings Board. The article pointed out that a small coterie of stodgy elders rate films based on their own puritan be- liefs. A film must be sometimes cut to avoid an NC-17 rating (the commercial kiss of death for a film). Thus by caus- ing re-editing, the board exerts outside control on artistic expression. Too of- ten the viewer cannot watch a film by the way a director intended it to be seen solely because the MPAA refused to give the film an R rating. Music labels nominally serve the same purpose as film ratings, but mu- sic labels serve less of a purpose than movie ratings. How many parents ac- tually buy music with their children? Most parents never know if music has offensive language or themes unless they happen to hear it The labels rarely get seen by parents, and the youth buy- ing the record usually could care less about the label. If the labels do any- thing, they draw attention to a particu- lar release. Why can't the music stand alone without labeling it? Even food now must be labeled with clearer markings.

Around campus and the surround- ing area there are 20 or 30 restaurants for students to gorge on pizza and burgers. There simply is no place in Greenville to sit down and enjoy some down-home food. It's almost like we're in a fast food jungle and there is no way to es- cape the perils of "Big Macs" and combo meals. If this is how you have feel when de- ciding on what to do for breakfast or lunch you haven't checked out Venter's Grill. It's a short five minute drive from campus and it's just like eat- ing at Grandma's, only Venter's won't make you eat your brussels sprouts. After pulling into the gravel park- ing lot go inside, sit down and look around. The first odd thing that will strike you is that there are no menus. Venter's cooks only a specified amount of each item each day, and when it's gone, it's gone. They have six chalk- boards set up inside the dining room and after around 2 p.m waitresses are wiping items off the menu. While sitting at your table, some- thing else will catch your eye. On each table, there is a Lazy Susan equipped with condiments that most doctors would not recommend: molasses, salt and butter. As you spin the Lazy Susan around to get some molasses for bis- cuits, arteries begin to harden and a coronary is perhaps on the way. But the biscuits melt in your mouth and you "As you get some molasses, arteries harden and a coronary is perhaps on the way don't care, because there is always time to start eating right - tomorrow. Each table is also provided with a pitcher of sweet tea and a bucket of ice. If you desire a soda of any kind, you have to go outside and get one from the soda machine. All ihis, and we haven't even ordered lunch yet There are iew places, especially in Greenville, to get a fantastic home- cooked meal. Venter's has the market cornered. The price is right too. One meat two vegetables, home- made desserts, and all the ice tea and biscuits you can binge on will onby cost around 5 dol- lars. For my review, I tried some items on the menu I hadn't had before: bar- becued pork chops, collard greens (with plenty of vinegar), Mac ard cheese, homemade banana pudding and, of course, cheese biscuits with rr.olasses. I say, "of course" because the only day of the week I'll dine at Venter's is the one day they bake cheese biscuits: Friday. Everything I ate at Venter's was simply fantastic. I just had to pace my- self when the waitress brought out the cheese biscuits because if I'm not care- ful, I'll eat so many I can't finish my meal. Venter's also has no tolerance for profanity. So don't go in thinking it's like a bar downtown where no one cares about foul language. Venter's will put you out the door and ask you not to come back. I only hope that never hap- pens to me, because I don't ever want to miss a "cheese biscuits" Friday.

Sexual innuendo marks the Bard's Twelfth Night Jennifer Coleman Staff Writer "If you will laugh yourself into stitches, follow me" - right to the ECU Playhouse performance of Wil- liam Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. That line, spoken by the maid Maria, barely does justice to Twelfth Night. From be ginning to end, this hi- larious story will have you rolling in the aisles. Twelfth Night opens after a ship- wreck has separated Viola (Kelly Cates) from her twin brother Sebastian. Each of the twins believes the other to be dead. Viola is washed up on the shore of Illvria, where she dresses up as a man to gain employment as a page to Duke Orsino (Justin Allen). The Duke is in love with Olivia (Thea Mills), a lady of Illyria. He sends Viola to Olivia with messages of love. She does such an excellent job of courting Olivia that the lady falls in love with Viola instead of the Duke. Meanwhile, Viola herself has become enamored of the Duke. As if this love tr ingle doesn't provide enough amusement, there is a second plot to Twelfth Night. Malvolio (Ryan Cox). Olivia's arro- gant steward, is disliked by the rest of Olivia's servants. Her maid Maria (Heather Melton), with the assis- tance of Olivia's uncle, Sir Toby Belch (Jeff Hirsch), devises a plan to make Malvolio look like a fool in front of the court. The two schemers send Malvolio a love let- ter supposedly from Olivia. The let- ter instructs Malvolio to do certain foolish things if he return's Olivia's love, which he follows explicitly. His odd behavior leads Olivia to believe he is demented, and she has him locked up. Because Twelfth Night is a pe- riod piece, the costumes and set are sure to be a delight to see. The set has been con- structed on two lev- Is, which makes for an extremely inter- esting stage pic- ture. The cos- tumes will un- doubtedly catch the eyes of the au- dience. But the most interesting part of the show will undoubtedly be the humor that lies in the script, just waiting for the audience to pick up on it. Twelfth Night opens at 8 p.m. this Thursday and will run through Tuesday, April 4, with a matinee on Sunday. Tickets are $4.50 for ECU students with a valid ID and are on sale now at the box office in McGinnis Auditorium. So if you're interested in an evening of classi- cal Shakespeare, if you want to see a brilliant piece of literature come to life on the stage or if you simply want to enjoy an evening of blatant sexual innuendos and bawdy hu- mor, buy your tickets now. Twelfth Night has something for everyone. John R.

Reviews Annie Lennox Medusa Gregory Dickens General Manager You can judge a CD by its cover. On the front of Annie Lennox's debut solo work, Diva, Lennox is decked out in carnival garb; sequins, feathers, and coats of makeup that nearly hide the singer from view. She peers out from behind her headdress looking stiff and solemn - understand- able for a singer who is branching out on her own after 11 years and seven albulms as the face of the Eurythmics. Her costume is analogous to the heavy production that went into Diva, a lush, smart, and beautiful CD that proved Lennox wasn't merel the eye- catching frontwoman while Dave Stewart worked the keyboards and produced their work. Medusa, however sports a cover with Lennox unclothed and with much less cosmetic cover, smiling slyly, but still with reservation, through the fourth wall. It's a much more relaxed facade than that oiDiva, but. as is reflected in her 10 new songs, it isn't a confident expression. Medusa is a cover album, sadly enough. Covers are a trend that even the best of today's pop singers-Luther Vandross, Gloria Estefan, Brian Ferry, Sinatra (redoing his songs, again- have succumbed to, and Lennox is Offer your feliow students a service they will always need.

'Course, the potential commercial success of a cover is enormous these days, especially if it's revamped enough to have a current sound or rhythm applied to it. While Lennox isn't relying on Stewart to bolster her vocal talent, she is relying on familiar tunes that have built-in popular and financial failsafes. Even if she destroys a song, at least it wasn't one of her songs: she can move relatively un- daunted to her next work. But it'd take someone like Tay- lor Dane or Mariah Carey to ruin these songs. Al Green's "Take Me To the River Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale the soul classic "I Can't Get Next to You and Paul Simon's "Something So Right" are just too sturdy to be harmed, and other selections-Train In Vain" by the Clash (!), Neil Young's "Don't Let It Bring You'Down and Bob Marleys "Waiting In Vainare streamlined into the same hues of production that make up Medusa to fit in even if they are an eclectic mix. While producer Steve Lipson has kept Lennox from merely repeat- ing herself after Diva. Medusa is still synthesizer-heavy, and the artificial sound is made more evident by star- tling intrusions of actual Spanish gui- tar and flutes. In fact. Medusa lapses into disco overproduction ("I Can't Get Next To You" and "Downtown Lights"). Sure, programmed music can create a mood that haunts, as "Whiter Shade of Pale" shows, creep- ing into Julee Cruise territory, but for Lennox's remarkable singing abil- ity, the stark contrast of science and nature just rings hollow. When Lennox performed on "Saturday Night Live" last weekend, she had her own full band and she kicked. Why not have them on the album? Medusa has moments. The first single "No More I Love You's is glo- rious pop. It epitomizes Lennox's flair for theater, gothic lyrics and a layered vapor of sound, bringing to mind Cruise, Kate Bush, Cocteau Twins and Laurie Anderson. She shows soul both Motown-influenced ("Train In Vain" and "Take Me to the River") and blue-eyed ("Something So Right" and "Don't Let It Get You Down"). And her chameleonesque tendency to become the narrator of the song eliminates any danger of emotional detachment from the song. But covers? Annie. Shame. Diva proved you could work with your own material. Why this? No matter how good it looks on paper, Medusa is a high-gloss cop out with a few treats. Mike Watt Ball-Hog or Tugboat?

PLAYERS CLUB APARTMENT -5 Just Because we are NEW we are starting something NEW for you. "Players Club Night On The Town Giveaways Galore: Vacation on us to Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival! If there was any justice, Mike Watt would be one of the biggest names in alternative music. With the Minutemen and later Firehose, Watt was behind some of the most intellectual punk music of the '80s. Firehose especially pushed the boundaries of punk, bring- ing jazz influence to a musical genre that seemed mired (some would say rightfully) in a general lack of musical talent It's no surprise, then, that Mike Watt's new solo album, Ball-Hog or Tugboat?, is so very good. Watt is ac- companied in this effort by some of the greatest stars of alternative music, including Henry Rollins, Flea, Thurston Moore, J. Mascis and Frank Black. The result is music that reminds me of Firehose but is still a natural progres- sion for Watt This is manly music, the kind of energetic, testosterone-driven rock & roll that makes you want to jump around and break stuff. I imagine that a lot of red meat and beer were con- sumed during the recording sessions for this album. Even the cover is manly in it� own way, with its vaguely homoerotic picture of two wrestlers accompanied by the phrase, "Sex with you is like watching scientific wres- tling In fact, the whole album was designed around a wrestling motif, and nothing is more manly than wrestling. So it's a nice touch that one of the album's manlier tunes, a cover of Sonic Youth's "Tuff Gnarl features a woman, Carla Bozulich, on lead vocals. Despite the presence of Sonic Youth's own Thurston Moore, it's not quite a biting or noisy (and therefoie not as manly) as the original. But that one was sung by Kim Gordon, who is liv- ing proof that manliness is not dictated by sex. Also manly is "Against the 70s an outright punk number reminiscent of Watt's days with the Minutemen sung by Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder. The delicious irony here, of course, is that Mr. Vedder has made a career out of aping '70s rock styles. So imagine my glee to hear him singing stuff like, "The kids of today thould defend themselves against the 70s! It ain't reality Just someone else's sentimentality Even better is stuff like "Baby boomers selling you rumors of their history' Forcing youth away from the truth of what's real to- day The idea that the whole 70s .etro fad is a sad scheme concocted by ag- ing boomers to relive their own youth through their children is so incredibly perverse that I have to love it I want to see a video for this one! But Ball-Ho or Tugboat? is filled with such perverse gems. The Spanish jazz number "Intense Song for Ma- donna to Sing for example, features no lyrics; its entry in the linear notes says, "Choose the words you yourself can hear her doing The funky "E- Ticket Ride" features Red Hot Chili Peppers' bassist Flea and the baby wail of Gordon Moore (son of Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth). Also, in the midst of all this manly, funky, sweaty, jazzy, aggressive groove sits "Sidemouse Advice This one's a nice little cool cat jazz number, com- plete with upright bass, quiet horns and a bouncy piano. Flea plays pocket trumpet, and "Tuff Gnarl" singer Carla Bozulich belts out vocals like Billy Holiday. Another jazzy number (this one really disjointed) is "Heartbeat Though not a particularly stand-out track on its own, this one features an answering machine message from Kathleen Hannah of Bikini Kill. Hannah insults Watt accuses one of his guest stars of statutory rape and then asks for Watt to return her Annie soundtrack. Current debate among people who own Ball-Hog or Tugboat? centers on whether or not she's jok- ing. I'll say this: If she's not, she is one annoying human being. Finally, we have "Sexual Military Dynamics words and vocals by the manliest of men, Mr. Henry Rollins. This one's about nasty, spitting, fight- ing sexual relationships and how screwed up they are. It's a sweaty, punch-in-the-face kind of tune. Rollins hasn't sounded this good (or made this much sense) since the Black Flag days. Maybe he should have taken notes. All in all, Mike Watt's Ball-Hog or Tugboat? is a more than satisfying experience. Musically this album is all over the place and handles all its vari- ous styles with ease. It's 60 minutes of manly fun, and it won't disappoint Ball-Hog or Tugboat? is good music by some of the best in today's rock scene, and everyone should have a copy.

FL LOOKING m A SUMMtft JOG? BUCKET from page 6 payers' money? The next logical extension will be labels on books - labels similar to those labels on music releases and labels on classics as well as new releases. Or per- haps we should just ban the books in the first place. A friend wrote to me incensed at a JtBcent conversation on This Week with ZXkivid Brinkley concerning the banning Z Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn. ' Seems that some people (conservatives? minorities?) want to ban the work be- cause of Twain's use of the word nigger. Seems that children reading the book will not understand that Twain wrote in the vemacula; at the day, and thus a child will misinterpret the meaning of the work. My friend became appalled that such a conversation even takes place in 1995. Book banning?!? Only in the dark recesses of 01r nation's past should that phrase appear. Book banning has gone . the way of the witch trials, hasn't it? The word nigger labels Huck's friend. The critics therefore label Huck Finn unreadable. Perhaps the book could have a warning label attached to the cover to warn people of the rac- ist language contained therein. Can you imagine great works of literature with warning labels? The ridiculousness of labeling books pales in comparison to the ab- surdity of banning them. Does the na- tion fear that children today fail to de- velop critical and analytical reading skills? Teachers and parents have failed at their jobs to properly educate the nation's youth. Instead of trying to remedy the problem, a vocal minority would have a ban on ideas. Thus the children would never have to face the concepts presented in a complex work of art like Huckleberry Finn and thus could not misinterpret those ideas. Eliminating certain books from a child's education seems akin to rewrit- ing history. Is the United States ap- proaching the state of affairs Orwell depicted in 1984 where history books are constantly changed to reflect the current state of affairs? Is an underly- ing reason for wanting to ban Huckle- berry Finn because we, as a country, want to deny that racial intolerance was ever as bad as that depicted in Twain's book? Whether the labels appear on films, music, food or books, their ex- istence presents a disquieting omen. Label mania seems to be a symptom of a society in decline. Much like build- ing more prisons to fight crime, la- bels only scratch the surface of the problem. Education of youth 'is the more effective, albeit more difficult, approach to fighting crime, and that same education would serve to elimi- nate the need for labels. But such long-term thinking requires fore- thought. Be. ause books have been banned in the past, many Americans lack the mental faculties to correlate ideas so far ahead. Therefore the short-term and short-sighted fix gets implemented because it provides the most obvious, though incorrect, solu- tion. Books are not taught in a vacuum. Teachers, and especially par- ents, can help children understand a work of art like Huckleberry Finn in- stead of hiding the book from the children. But in order to be effective parents and teachers, the educator must possess critical and analytical skills. Because of book banning in the past, many of those skills are lacking in many parents and teachers. Thus a vicious cycle operates to lower the collective intelligence of a nation. Label mania threatens to cause complacency. Parents and teachers may tend to relax a bit if they think that a watchdog has safeguarded their child's mental development. The edu- cators may also find teaching critical and analytical skills difficult without complex works of art for students to develop those skills. Any parent or fu- ture parent needs to be reminded of the dangers of close-minded thinking. Label mania?? That way lies madness.

"We knew they were an offensive team, and we could no1 afford to fall be- hind by large margins The Spiders (7-2 in the CAA) were riding on the success of their much heralded star first baseman, after they generated eight runs of offense in the first game. Junior first baseman Sean Casey once again showed his Ail- American potential when he broke open the Richmond scoring with a two-run homerun in the first inning of the first game. Two batters later, Ed Tober drilled a shot over the outfield wall for another two-run homer to up the score to 4-0. The Pirate pitchers were shaken early in both contests as senior Jason Mills (3-3) gave up his starting role to John Payne in the seventh inning.

Crandell (Robersonville, N.C.), in very limited action, completed 8 of 17 passes for 108 yards and a touchdown. "I was real pleased at how the quarterbacks performed added Logan. " I thought it was a good scrimmage overall. The offense was able to protect the football and the defense held its own. We had a lot of installation (of plays) this past week, and they took to it pretty well Gonzalez two scoring strikes went to Larry Shannon (17 yards) and Jason Nichols (57 yards). Nichols, a sophomore from Norcross, Ga caught 7 passes for 116 yards. He also caught an 11- yard scoring pass from Crandell. Daryl Jones, a reshirt freshman running back from Rockledge, Fla had a six-yard touchdown catch from Tinnen and also had a 26-yard scoring run. Jones finished with 62 yards rushing on eight carries. Running back Jerris McPhail (Clinton, N.C.), the heir apparent to ECU record-setter Junior Smith, led all rushers with 84 yards on 10 car- ries. He also had a 15-yard scoring run. McPhail also caught 3 passes for 22 yards. Defensively, freshman Travis Darden (Kelford, N.C.) had four sacks for minus 19 yards and se- nior Jermaine Smith (Eden. N.C.) had three sacks for minus 22 yards. Shep Sepaniak (Brookside, N.J.), Tavares Taylor (Fayetteville, N.C.) and Andrew Barrett (Mooresvlle, N.C.) recorded interceptions. The Pirates will have one more full week of practice before another scrimmage next Saturday in Dowdy Ficklen Stadium. The spring prac- tice schedule will conclude on April 8 with the annual PurpleGold Scrimmage at 2 p.m. in Dowdy- Ficklen Stadium. The scrimmage is part of the 12th Annual Great Pi- rate PurpleGold Pigskin Pig-Out Party.

ECU. the No. 3 seed in Pool A, advanced to the first round of the single elimination playoffs that be- gan at 7 p.m. They faced GMU. who was ranked No. 2 in Pool C. The Lady Pirates shut out the Patriots, 8-0, in five innings. Jami Bendie improved to 12-3 on the hill, allow- ing two hits, with one walk and four strikeouts. Tonya Oxendine tripled and Dana Hulings hit a homerun. For GMU, pitcher Kim Tuffy earned the loss. She allowed eight runs off nine hits. Stacie Elliot was 1-2 with a double. Their overall record is 8- 10. At 9 a.m. on Sunday. ECU ad- vanced to quarterfinal competition. They lost to Toledo, 0-3. Christie Davis and Teryn Ford in a losing effort for ECU. Tonya Oxendine and Joey Clark each went 2-3 at the plate. The win improved Toledo's record to 9-4. giving pitcher Desiree Abrego her fourth win of the sea- son (4-3). The Lady Pirates' next game is set for March 29 when they travel to Wilson, N.C. to face Barton for a 2 p.m. doubleheader. The Lady Pirates tennis team trekked to Norfolk this weekend, only to find themselves pitted against three of the top 15 teams in the region. The Lady Netters faced JMU, Rutgers and Old Domin- ion, dropping all three matches and falling to 11-4. 1-2 in the CAA, on the year. Freshman Rachel Cohen helped account for three of the Pi- rate wins, winning 6-1, 6-3 against Rutgers. She provided two wins on Sunday, taking a 6-3, 6-0 win from ODU, and teaming up with Courtney Hargett at No. 1 doubles to win. Hollyn Gordon was the only on Saturday in which the Irates outscored their opposition by a com- bined score of 45-14. ECU seemed a little flat in their uuarterfinal vic- tory over SUNY-Binghamton. They weren't the only top- seeded team to come out sluggish as the previously second-ranked University of California-Santa Bar- bara Black Tide were eliminated by NC State 12-7. This opened the door for UNC-Wilmington to have easy walk to the finals, where they would meet ECU in a rematch of last week's College Easterns Championship game. In one of the best college Ulti- mate games of the year, ECU and UNC-W battled each other point for point for more than three hours. Although UNC-W was smoth- ered by the Irate swarm the week before, the Seamen gave ECU all they could handle. The Irates, fac- ing adversity for the first time, never lost their composure and proved once again why they are the best team in the country. ECU eked out a 17-15 win in what may have been a preview of the college National Championship game. After a few subpar perfor- mances in previous tournaments, ECU's women's team, the Helioses- tablished themselves as a force to be reckoned with. Cornell learned that first hand, as the Wild Roses, ranked second in the tournament in the women's division, fell prey to the Helios' pow- erful 2-3-2 zone defense and were defeated 12-11. This win cleared the path for the Helios to make their first appearance in the finals of a tournament this season. Although the ECU women were defeated by the national power- house from UNC-W in the champi- onship game, they were proud of the strides they had taken to become successful. A possible second straight trip to nationals may be in the cards for the Helios. Special consideration must be given to Ultimax's Minister of Com- petition, Keith Lewis. He made Ultimax the most competitive col- lege tournament of the year, and the tournament ran as smoothly as pos- sible.

Is Don King out of the pic- ture? Various published accounts on Monday suggested that promoter King has lost his hold on the former heavyweight champion, released on Saturday from an Indiana prison, where he served time for a rape con- viction. "Today, I don't think Don King is out, but we'll know in a couple of months promoter Dan Duva said from his office in Totowa, NJ. "1 think King is out promoter Bob Arum said from his office in Las Vegas. "I don't care that much, ex- cept it facilitates a Tyson-Foreman fight" The 46-year-old Foreman, pro- moted by Arum, more likely would fight Tyson if King, Arum's archrival, is not involved. Phone calls to King's office in Florida and his Ohio home, located near Tyson's residence in Southington, were not returned. There were reports that Tyson sent King away after the former champion returned to his home on "Saturday. Promoter Butch Lewis was quoted in Monday's New York Daily News as saying "I was told that there's some sort of rift between King and Tyson. I was told that Tyson wanted privacy and asked everybody to leave, including Don On Monday, Lewis told The As- sociated Press that "all the rumors being circulated are second and third hand. I'm not surprised, nor should anyone else be, after being incarcer- ated for three years that the kid would want privacy. People are read- ing too much into it. I don't take it as a sign that Don is on his way out The New York Post reported Tyson was angry when he found a Showtime crew in his home, taping footage for a documentary to be aired in April. The newspaper re- ported it had been told King had made a $20 million deal on Showtime, with whom King has worked for some time, for a combi- Jordan airs it out in New York (AP) - In 1991, 1992 and 1993, the New York Knicks didn't represent the Eastern Conference in the NBA Finals. The Chicago Bulls did - and went on to win the championship each year. The New York Knicks didn't have Michael Jordan. The Chicago Bulls did. Last year, neither team had Jor- dan, who was playing minor league baseball forf he Birmingham Barons. The Knicks finally overcame the Bulls in an emotional seven-game series and reached the Finals. "That was their window of oppor- tunity Chicago coach Phil Jackson said Monday. The window might have slammed shut. Jordan is back. And if the sea- son ended now, his Bulls would face the Knicks in the opening round of the playoffs. "Bring him on was the initial reaction of Knicks president Dave Checketts when Jordan's un-retire- ment became official last week. Checketts & Co. get their first chance to check out Jordan, Part II, on Tuesday night when the Bulls visit the Knicks.

"It's a measuring stick. New York is a contender. We have to see how well we stack up he said. "It's a tough situation. We have to prepare ourselves for a good battle, physically as well as emotionally. The Knick team has always rebounded the ball strongly and played solid defense The last time the teams met, March 2 in New York before rumors of Jordan's return had surfaced, the Bulls blew a big lead and lost Jordan's presence Tuesday will "bring a renewed effort" from the Knicks, Jackson said. "I think they were rather bored with us the last time; that's one of the reasons we got a lead. This will bring them to a full alert immediately Jackson said the Knicks' trip to Chicago on April 16 - one week be- fore the regular season ends - will be a more accurate measuring stick. "That's going to be a drawn-out battle in which we're going to wage a little bit of playoff spirit he said. "We're going to be at full strength, Michael Jordan will be conditioned, our team will be adapted to his style of play and our chemistry will be back If the Knicks want to avoid open- ing the postseason against Jordan, they might actually be better off los- ing Tuesday. Chicago, with the sixth-best record in the East is only 2 12 games behind fifth-place Cleveland. If the Bulls pass Cleveland, they'd face the No. 4 seed, probably Charlotte or In- diana, and the Knicks would get the Cavaliers. Before Jordan's return became official, Knicks coach Pat Riley said: "It would change the thinking of who and who cannot win But Knicks general manager Ernie Grunfeld pointed out that Jordan's supporting cast isn't as strong as it was during the Bulls' championship run. "What you have to remember is they're a different team he said. "There's no Grant, there's no Cartwright there's no Paxson The Knicks have changed little. They're still formidable and physical, with Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley and Anthony Mason. And they're still embattled, with Mason having just returned from a five-game suspension for showing up Riley. "They've battled with themselves mentally, which is part of trying to be a champion said Jordan, a master of mind games. "But I think they still have the fundamentals to win NOTE: Split-squad games count in standings.

Several phone calls were made to the cable TV network, but Showtime would not comment. "I don't think the public cares who promotes Mike Tyson because I think they'll buy tickets to see Mike Tyson fight, not because Don King is the promoter Duva said. Arum, however, contends the public is interested in whether King resumes his promotional relation- ship with' Tyson. "The public wants to know ini- tially that King is out Arum said. "King has painted himself as the devil. People interested in Tyson are rooting for him to succeed in his life and they know the worst thing for Tyson as a person is King Arum admitted that if King is the promoter, "1 think people will go to see Mike fight, but the whole aura changes There were reports Tyson was upset because King had arranged for a welcome-home spread that in- cluded champagne and shellfish. Alcohol, shellfish and pork are for- bidden by Islamic law. Reports that Tyson had married his 28-year-old girlfriend Monica Turner, a Georgetown University medical student, in a Muslim cer- emony in prison were denied on Monday by Phil Slavens, assistant superintendent at the Indiana Youth Center. It also was rumored that Tyson was thinking about changing his name to Malik Abdul Aziz. "He ain't changing his name" said Muhammed Siddeeq, Tyson's in- structor in Islam while he was in prison, told an Associated Press re- porter at a mosque in Plainfield, Ind where Tyson prayed after be- ing released.

The signing was announced to- day by Panthers president Mike McCormack. "Frank giver us a veteran who has played on the highest level of the National Football League said Pan- thers general manager Bill Polian. "He brings the experience and lead- ership qualities that are important in developing a young team, and we look forward to having him with the Panthers During his career as backup to the Bills' Jim Kelly, Reich completed nearly 60 percent of his regular sea- son passing attempts and threw 18 touchdown passes with 12 intercep- tions. In his career, he has completed 222 of 377 passing attempts while making eight career starts inc uding the last two regular season games in 1994. He also made two playoff starts for the Bills. "I'm excited about the opportu- nity to be involved with a new fran- chise like Carolina Reich said. "It was great playing for an organization like Buffalo, and I feel fortunate to join another great organization in the Panthers Reich is remembered for bring- ing the Bills back from a 32-point deficit to a 41-38 overtime victory over Houston in the 1992 AFC wild card game. Reich played a similar role in college when he led Maryland from a 31-0 deficit to a 4240 victory over Miami. Reich, 34, an 11-year veteran, was drafted in the third round in 1985. The Panthers previously had ac- quired quarterbacks Jack Trudeau and Doug Pederson through the vet- eran allocation draft. Reich is the 13th unrestricted free agent signed by the Panthers. Dibble suspended for comments (AP) - The Chicago White Sox suspended pitcher Rob Dibble one day after he was quoted saying re- placement players would be stuck with the label for life "like child molesters Dibble was suspended Sunday "for conduct unbecoming to a White Sox player general man- ager Ron Schuele said, adding that Dibble "criticized our major league players Dibble was quoted in Saturday's Chicago Tribune as say- ing replacement players were "go- ing to be labeled like child molest- ers for the rest of their lives. You're never going to get rid of that la- bel Dibble also referred to replace- ment baseball as a "beer league" and said Chicago's minor-leaguers could beat the strikebreakers. Asked whether Dibble's talk played a role in his suspension, Schueler said, "It might've Schueler said he would not re- instate Dibble until he talks to Dibble's agent, Dennis Gilbert. He would not say whether he thought the suspension would hurt Dibble's chances of making the team after the strike ends. The White Sox signed the two- time National League All-Star to a minor league contract this year. LAA from page 9 joined with the Metro to form an all- sports conference. The Metro Conference who's members already inlcude Louisville, UNC-Charlotte, South Florida, South- ern Mississippi, and Tulane have agreed to pay both Virginia Tech and VCU $2.27 million dollars. That is a tremendous amount of money for a school that will go into one of the less-advertised athletic con- ferences in the nation. However, their immediate impact will probably not be felt, except when next season's Rams hoopsters will give basketball coach Eddie Payne a few headaches. "They have a fine athletics pro- gram interim athletic director Henry Van Sant said. "They are very strong in basketball, very good in baseball, and volleyball In addition to raising revenue for the CAA, VCU will have plenty of rea- sons to compete. First of allt they will bring a baseball program that has had five strong seasons in the Metro. Also, after finaling in the NIT, the Rams will bring a solid basketball program to the CAA, which might give James Madison or Old Dominion a run for first place. Strengthening an already Vir- ginia dominted conference, the thrill of competition and economic gains is rewarding too, especially for ECU and UNC-Wilmington. Not since Navy and David Robinson can the CAA look to rather promising years. Both VCU's athletic director Richar Sander and president Eugene Tani will be embraced by a better group of athletic administrators in the CAA rather than the cold UNC-C chan- cellor J.H. Woodward and the merci- less Metro Conference advisery com- mittees. VCU's augmentation into the CAA will reap more benefits for the CAA and ECU than for the subpar Metro Conference.

Richmond ace Bobby St. Pierre upped his record to a perfect 6-0 after holding ECU to two runs over eight innings of work. The only Pi- rate runs came in the bottom half of the first, when Lamont Edwards scored on a wild pitch, and on a Derek Lindsay blast over the left field fence in the bottom of the sev- enth inning, narrowing the margin to six. Their attack on the Pirates would continue into the second game of the doubleheader as the Spiders would muster three runs in the first inning and four runs in the second to cruise to a 7-5 victory. "It was important to keep run- ners off the bases when the first five batters came up to the plate Overton, who respected the strong UR hitters, said. Sophomore Chad Newton (2-1) suffered his first loss of the season, as he faced a very tough opponent in the Spiders. Leading off the game with a walk for Richmond was second baseman Jeff Dorman who would later score on a Ed Tober single. Generating more runs in the in- ning, outfielder Jay Adams hits a sacrifice fly to right scoring Tober making the early lead 3-0. However, in the bottom half of the first, the Pirates would answer with two runs of their own. Henry Ogden faced a tougher Pirate lineup in the second game, as he upped his pitching mark to 3-0. Sophomore Lance Tigyer scored the first of the Pirates runs, scoring from second on a Jason Head single to left. Head would later score on a wild pitch making it 3-2. But as soon as the Pirates closed the gap, the Spiders an- swered with a plethora of runs. Newton, who was already faced with the difficult task of trying to stop the UR bats, had the flood gates opened on him in the second. Mark Budzinski, Casey and the solid-hitting Tober, who capped the inning off with his seventh homerun of the season, all contrib- uted to the Spiders' scoring. ECU's Lamont Edwards would contribute two RBI's of his own in the fourth inning with a single through second after third baseman Derek Lindsay got on with a base hit and Jason DeHart hit a single through the center of the infield. "It was very important to sal- vage a win from Richmond, because they are 25th in the country Overton said.
